THE EVENTS of our college year of 1943-44 are memorable, for they brought a new phase to campus life heretofore not known. Instead of hav- ing the usual summer vacation, we re- turned to campus on July 1, 1943. under an accelerated program — for our campus had gone to war ' Many traditions had to be foregone, and most of our men students donned the uni- form Juniors were active in making college life enjoyable as well as constructive under the stress of wartime. We did our part to make the Friday night digs successful, had members on the cham- pionship Rose Bowl team and other leading sports. We saw members com- missioned in February and ordered to active duty, and gave them our best wishes. The traditional Junior Prom, held in May, climaxed a year of suc- cess in promoting and keeping the Spirit of Old SC alive. 32 JACK SORENSON. Amiable Kappa Sig. part- PECCY CARDNER.

Varsity sports rules were relaxed to admit Freshmen, and the challenge was accepted. We had starters on the Rose Bowl Team ' s line-up, out- standing basketball and track stars.

Captain Reed M. Fawell has kept a straight course toward the ulti- mate commissioning of over twelve hundred prospective officers. With his forty- one years of naval experience throughout the world, he has been able to undertake the tremendous task of organizing and placing on an efficient basis, a training sta- tion to produce the officer material to lead the marines and man the ships of the United States Navy. Organizer and commandant of the N.R.OT.C unit on the S.C campus since 1940, Captain Fawell accepted the duties of his new command without disrupting the organization already established. The navy offices were expanded and new staff personnel was added. In this way the skipper has launched a college training unit second to none. 50 =- ■ NAVAL Academy graduates, the two executive officers of the Navy College Training program here at SC. lack no experience to be gained by active service with the fleet Commander R. E. Kerr, executive officer of the Naval R.O.T.C, has held this post since April 3, 1942. Taking care of all personnel matters pertaining to the R.O.T.C Commander Kerr had the added responsibility of teaching senior naval courses. On the Captain ' s staff since October 23, 1942, Commander Baker was assigned to the office of Executive Offi- cer of the V-12 unit upon its establishment on July 1. 1943. Through his office must pass all material regarding men in the V-12 organization. With these two capable executives. Captain Fawell has been able to coordinate the actions of all trainees at U.S.C. captain reuben m. welsh, u.s.m.c.r. MARINE COMMANDING OFFICER for the first year of the Leathernecks ' stay at SC was Captain Reuben M. Welsh. Although Captain Welsh was in charge of the marines, he worked through the office of Navy Captain Reed M. Fawell. Captain Welsh ' s task was to reconcile preparation for mili- tary life at Parris Island and yet see that an educat- ed group of men were prepared to meet the prob- lems of a post-war world. A graduate of Texas A. M.. home of many of the greatest military heroes of our country. Captain Welsh was called from his reserve status in 1942 for active duty In June of 1943 he came to SC to assume command of the Trojan marine detachment. Captain Welsh is mar- ried and has two children, the oldest being three and a half years of age. The captain is well satis- fied with his present post, but still has the urge to return to San Antonio, Texas, after the war. Quiet, friendly, and constantly looking out for the inter- ests of the detachment, the commanding officer was ever popular with his men. Evidence of Cap- tain Welsh ' s success with his command was the prominent part they played in campus life and the fine showing they made when they went back east to Parris Island and New River and thence to Quan- tico for their final officer training. lieutenant I. bolenbaugh, u.s.n.r. UNDER THE able direction of Captain Randall and Com- mander Weber, the Naval medical corp had established a complete dispensary with sick bay, including a dental department under Lt Lawson. With typical naval clean- liness, this corp offers expert medical care to all naval and marine trainees. Occupying one wing of Owens Hall, the dispensary contains a modern dental office, X-ray machine, and isolation ward. One of the necessary branches of the United States Navy represented on campus is the Supply Corp. Under the direction of line officer Lt. Bolenbaugh, supplies were brought in and small stores made available to the trainees. Through this department, naval personnel may secure the necessary clothing at navy price Commissioned while at Troy, Ensign Olden was placed in charge of the Physical Fitness Program. In this pro- gram, all trainees and civilians are given rigorous physi- cal training five days a week. Under the supervision of the Physical Fitness staff, courses in swimming, boxing, football, basketball, and wrestling are required. Assigned to the S. C. Navy Training Program as disburs- ing officer on June 21, 1943, Ensign Hamilton has or- ganized an efficient office to take care of the navy finances on this campus. All checks paid to the naval trainees are signed by Miss Hamilton As Chief Ship ' s Clerk. Chief Warrant Officer Fairbairn acts as secretary to the captain. All incoming mail is routed to its respective departments by him. With the N.R.O.T.C. staff, as chief yeoman, since July 17, 1941, Mr Fairbairn received his commission on October 1, 1943. As Captain Welch ' s executive office r. Gunner Jewell Vickers handles much of the personnel material pertain- ing to the marine detachment on this campus. Among the Chief Petty Officers on campus are: Chief Creenley, of the medical corp; Chief Boatswain Rutz, in charge of the armory; Chief Boatswain Anderson, in charge of the rifle range. First Sergeant Miller of the Marine Corp, acts as disciplinarian of the marine barracks. chief warrant officer d. fairbairn, u.s.n. (ret.) chief ph.irm.iosr s mate r.

Also to the Staff Ad- jutant, as senior cadet officer on campus, was given the duty of Regimental Commander of the whole V-12 training unit. In this position he commanded the regiment of four battalions at the parades in the Coliseum and Rose Bowl. rose bowl formation 54 . THE RECIMENTAL STAFF of the V-12 unit on the SC campus functions only when the entire unit, consisting of N.R.O.T.C. Marines, and V-12 sailors, form for pa- rade. Such a formation has been occasioned by the in- spection by Admiral Bagley. commandant of the 1 1 th naval district, and parades at the University football games both at the Coliseum and at the Rose Bowl The triumphant parade into the Rose Bowl brought to a close the year in which a drastic change had taken place in the status of these eleven hundred men in the college train- ing program. The parade formed outside the Bowl, marched in and around the field, halting and coming to a salute in front of the flagpole as the flag was raised and the national anthem was played. lieutenant commander e. h. pope, u.s.n. lieutenant commander a. v. bres, u.s.n.

In the fall of 1940 some ninety-eight college students formed the first class at the birth of the unit A year later another class of one hundred joined. As the unit grew, the staff grew. Com- mander R. E. Kerr took over the post of executive officer. Among those offi- cers who have come and gone through the years are Lieutenant-Commanders Wanglin. Craybill, Watson, and Kretz. and Lieutenant Lawson. As the years progressed, many happenings occurred affecting the unit. More classes were added, war was declared, and the N.R.O. was called to active service with other V-12 ' s on July 1, 1943. They took over Elizabeth von KleinSmid Hall as their barracks, and began wearing their uniform seven days a week instead of one. The course the NROTC. cadet takes leads to a diploma in his major with a commission as ensign in the U.S.N R. His training in peace time took nine semesters. Added to the college course were certain naval science courses such as Naval History and Traditions, Navigation, Seaman- ship, Ordnance, Maneuvering Board, Marine Engineering, and International Law. These courses are taught by experi- enced naval officers. Practical knowledge in seamanship is given to the men in annual cruises. Upon receipt of his commission, the graduate is assigned to duty at a station or aboard a ship. After a year of active service, he is given the opportunity to apply for transfer to the U.S.N. This is the only way, other than going through Annapolis that a person can become a line officer in the U.S.N. r. c. gates, d. j. brown, company petty officers c. r.

W. MacMullen, did much to develop a spirit for marching. Three morn- ings a week and other week day afternoons practice is held. At all times there is a bugler on watch to blow the regular calls of reveille, chow, tattue, and taps. Also, every morning at eight hundred and every evening at sunset, colors is sounded at the flagpole in front of the ad- ministration building as the flag is raised or lowered. Among the out- standing members of the platoon are: Chuck MacKenzie, manager of the varsity football team, and prom- inent gymnast; C. F. Barratt, char- ter organizer of the Southern Cali- fornia Men ' s Glee Club; and Lee Millar and jim George, well known in University productions. left to right: h. wilkins s. hufstedler. a. nixetich, j. huggins the coliseum COLOR GUARD — Bearing the national ensign and the unit ' s flag, the color guard marches with the company which has won the honor of being the color com- pany.

Any thoughts of loafing were quickly dispelled upon watch- ing the sparkplug of the platoon, mustering petty officer, Cuy Miner. Climaxing a brilliant season three of our members sparked the victorious SC Rose Bowl team. As the end of the semester rolled around we were happily surprised by the announcement that juniors were to receive their commissions. Although we were sorry to see so many of our men graduate we knew that they would at last have the chance to demonstrate the valuablr ing they had received with us. «b I.

The pla- toon basketball squad, sparked by George Callanan and Art Nick- loff and supported by such cagers as Bill Barlow, Duane White- head, Bud Curtis, Evan Koppe, and Bill Martin, had some success.

Among the ten |uniors that received their commissions at the end of the semester was Rea Rawlins, presidsnt of Squires and S. A C. Others were Ed Armstrong, George Stone, Paul Stillman, Priestly Horton, Don Mayer, Darrel Holstrom, Bill Scatchard, |ock McNaughton. and George Azadian. Our guide and prexy candidate Rox Hinch- cliff, also received a commission. S C Moody received the award for highest marks in basic framing. e. g. frank cadet lieutenant (j.g. ) Wednesday night THE SECOND PLATOON of the Third Company commonly known as the Mighty Midgets , proved the old adage that good things come in little packages by walking off with a majority of the N.R.O.T.C. battalion honors.

Sherm Voiler added to the score by winning second place in the annual manual of arms drill. Still another trophy was added to our collection when Joy Hyun and Bill Wilder walked off with first places in the Pistol and Rifle match.

The Top was con- cerned with many of the little things that go to make up morale and a smooth-functioning unit Clean rooms, pressed clothes, adherence to regulations, and signing the payroll are just a few of the things that the First was called upon to supervise. After nearly 16 years in the service, First Sergeant Miller had the ex- perience to handle a group of raw recruits and see that they didn ' t remain raw very long. In addition to regulating activities for the trainees. First Sergeant Miller was foreman for the marine office staff. His toughest job was seeing that each member of the staff was doing the task he was best suited to do First Sergeant Miller rated his job a cinch after serving in China and on the Flagship Augusta. Hailing from Minnesota, the Top was married in 1941. His motto is Semper Fidelis. ALTHOUGH THE MARINE DETACHMENT had shrunk at the end of three semesters from nearly 300 members to a mere 1 35, they were firmly entrenched as an integral part of the Trojan student body. Com- posed of men from such universities as Oregon, Oregon State, UCLA. San Diego State, Fresno State, Wash- ington State, and Colorado, as well as SC, the Leathernecks became known as the activity boys, with no activities barred. Prominent in the fields of athletics, public speaking, journalism, dramatics, social doin ' s, and just about everything they co uld lay their hands on, much of Trojan campus life became de- pendent upon these Semper Fideles lads. In addition to their campus activities, the marines proved they were doing their job efficiently as report after report came back from Parris Island boot camp and Quan- tico praising the work of graduates from the local unit. Much of the credit for the success of the marines lay in their esprit de corps which was revealed time and again, particularly in their fancy and snappy marching, the envy of the rest of the trainees on campus. Internally the marines were organized so as to give as much trainee control of the detachment as possible. The staff and trainees who had come di- rectly from active fleet duty assumed more the role of advisors. Tests in the use and nomenclature of five weapons, speeches by men who had seen duty in battle zones, and instructive movies were all part of the pre-Quantico preparation of these trainees. Frequent competitive inspections by members of the staff kept the lads on the ball. It was a tribute to these hardworking marines that they were able to carry a heavy academic program and still assume an active part in campus life while keeping up their military standards. All in all, the marines were a great bunch of guys. 70 quartermaster sergeant John dark gunnery sergeant torn hailcy JOHN CLARK, quartermaster sergeant, kept the men in clothes, but sometimes he had considerable trouble Sergeant Clark claims he has never seen so many men with size 14 shoe in all his life After be- ing in the reserve for four years, Sergeant Clark was also a veteran of three years ' active duty. He was stationed at Brooklyn Navy yard. New River, and Parris Island before coming to Troy. TOM HAILEY, gunnery sergeant, was in charge of the Reynolds hall unit and saw to it that everything was ship shape aboard. ' ' While on active duty at Pearl Harbor, fateful Dec. 7, Sergeant Hailey earned the Navy Cross for his bravery in saving the lives of his shipmates. The sergeant likes the climate in South- ern California, but when it comes to the people, he says, Give me Missouri . ALTON KENNEDY, paymaster sergeant, was a popular man around the barracks. When he put a notice on the bulletin board the men really hopped because it usually meant pay call. Sergeant Kennedy, a two- year veteran, had his work cut out for him, what with insurance policies, family allotments, and bond pur- chases complicating the ordinary SMR. Even though the responsibility for seeing that the marine detachment functioned smoothly fell to higher- ups, much of the actual work was done by the non-commissioned officers. JIMMY INCRAHAM, sergeant, kept the marine detachment musically minded. Really an artist when it came to tickling the ivories or writing music, Sergeant Jimmy was responsible for the singing marines who were so prominent on campus. Before a year was up, however, the sergeant had shipped out for points south and was seen on the Trojan campus, from then on, merely as a visitor. ROY BALDINC, corporal, had the thankless job of making out the watch lists. Corporal Balding learned that you can ' t please any of the people any of the time, when it comes to watches. The corporal also doubled as company barber After serving from 1936 to 1940, Corporal Balding quit the service, only to find him- self back on active duty come 1943, a happy marine at USC. MACACEL HORNE, sergeant, was perhaps the best liked non-com in the outfit. Easy-going and quiet, the Southern gentleman would much rather have been down in Florida on his alligator and horse ranch The sergeant kept the lads on their toes, and really helped them learn their weapons in gunnery school. corporal roy balding sergeant macagcl home COMPANY platoon A 1 front row h. t. muenchow I. w. bonzer c. s. dunne c. c. backstrom j. 1. billings g. t. capatanos e. cavalfini a. s. bailey r. j. shaffran second row c.

Included in the three squads were casaba captain, Dick Bailey, Mickey Brophy, John Babick, and Ainslie Bell. Bell, by doubling in football, joined the com- pany of Charlie Dunne and Johnny Evans. Most illustrious of the journalists was Bill Carter who handled the sports editorship of the Trojan for many months and was considered the most avid SC rooter in many years. Jack Billings and Earl Blount were also journalists. Dick Shaffr?n, who served a stint as Company com- mander and worked with the El Rodeo, and industrious Herb Muenchow were platoon leaders. Half the fellows followed their leaders, being the conscientious type, and the remainder were considerably more spirited. Many of the squad members left for Parris Island m February.

Bob Howard, who was Troy ' s fop hoopster, spent much of his time in the Student Union Lounge. Bill Cray gave the platoon an All -Coast football center, and an all-around swell guy. In Dave Heiser the boys had a great gymnast and a comedian. Milt Freeman and Clarence Huddleston played Ceegee and |ayvee basketball. Milt also per- formed on the baseball diamond. Well-known on campus for their activity in ASSC affairs were Joe Holt and Mickey Heeger, found- er of the S.S. Poopdeck. Skoles Hoffman was making Dean Crom- well happy by his sprinting.

Dick Laraway was busy chasing a golf ball around the links for the team. )oe Krause jammed a year ' s work on the El Rodeo in a few short weeks, and did much of the plan- ning and layout work of the book. |ohn McGowan and Ken Lomax were singing their lungs out for the Men ' s Clee Club.

I. charland YOU ' RE THE TOPS is a phrase that was very applicable for the Fleet men of the marine detachment. Chosen out of many hundreds who applied, these men were taken from active duty overseas as well as in the United States, and given an opportunity to become officers. One of the men had been with the Raiders on the Makin island raid, others had been with radar units Sev- eral had been sergeants, most had been non-coms. The change from fighting to studying was a tough one for many of the fellows. Herb Muenchow and Ernie Coza took the change in stride and were soon on their way to further training at engineering schools. Hugh Manning twirled for Rod Dedeaux ' s diamondmen. Dick Shaffran was prominent in the activities of the ASSC. Marv Volkert was an International Relations politician. Norm Brunelle was kept busy telling about his adventures in thirteen battles at sea. Clarence Swartz and Jim Stebbms took quite an interest in the feminine beauty of the campus. Bill Keane was the playboy of playboys. Bill Geiger got restless and went back into the fleet, and had company a little later in John Blackman. Martin, Murphy, and MacLachlon were known as the Three Musketeers . Roger Francis, Frank Kershaw, and Ducky Drake were topnotch students. All in all, the Fleet men were large contributions to campus life i busy don f scorch 77 . company officers A PAIR OF FLEET MEN were chosen to lead the Marine de- tachment during their initial term on campus. These two, Dick Shaffran and Ernie Coza, were the student leaders that carried the outfit through two efforts in the Coliseum. Coza, a friendly native of Mississippi, was the drill commander, while Shaffran was in charge of the administrative work. Both boys did an excellent job, which was much in evidence whenever the detachment was called upon to parade. dick sh.ltfr.Tn marines here and about I OR W - 78 USNR V-12 HENDERSON HALL c.p.o. r. baker bat. com. bill gray bob anderson c.p.o. j. j. phillips HENDERSON HALL, filled since July 1 with some 250 basic trainees, presents a majestic picture standing all by itself in its Exposition Boule- vard triangle. This V-12 barracks is distinct in that it was the first hall to have an all-servicemen ' s dance, a navy band, and a 100 c ' c contribu- tion to the infantile paralysis campaign. The destiny of Henderson has rested in the capable hands of three chief specialists and three battalion commanders The chiefs, in order of their command, are Roy Baker, J. J. Phillips, and O W. Banks. Baker, more commonly known as bullet , left early in February to take a Lieutenant ' s (J.C Commission elsewhere. Chief Phillips is now an Ensign serving the navy in Virginia. Current leading officer of Hender- son is a friendly Oklahoman, chief Wes Banks. Battalion Commanders are chosen from the men to co-ordinate the or- ders and relay them to the trainees. The first of Henderson ' s student officers was architecture major, Cal Straub, who also designed the serv- iceman ' s canteen. He was succeeded by Bill Cray, an able and likeable former first class machinist mate. Cray ' s bunk in 203, the traditional abode of the headman, was taken by Jim Young, also in from the fleet. At the end of every term there is a senior banquet, attended exclusive- ly by trainees departing for midshipman ' s school and the Navy Air Corp. The Blood Bank ' s two trips to the Trojan campus were successful par- tially due to the splendid support of Henderson. A plaque for second spot in the War Chest campaign hangs in the O.D.

It was the first who led us — the V-12 — on our first parade before the Cap- tain, early in July. Men from the first deck were the nucleus of Boggess ' outfit. Politicos were scattered from one end of this platoon ' s roll to the other. Knight and Inter-fraternity council prexy Bob Campbell marched side by side with Bob Tobias and Burdette Jordan, Trojan Knights and campus leaders. Dick Allen, Jim McMahon, Dave Dow, and Sheldon Kornhandler were Knights and Squire members. Basketball playing was a specialty of the first platoon and only a one point loss in the semi-finals kept them from the Intra-mural championship. Don Buddie Moreno, Joe Killian, and Earl Wells were cage stalwarts. 82 TO SANDWICHED IN between the first and third platoon v. Marv Smith ' s group ot officer candidates. A highly versatile bunch, the second was equally blessed with athletes and sc Outstanding among the athletes was Don Palmer, brilliant n on SC ' s baseball outfit, which also found Bill Creighton making his name, lack Balzer and Bill Chapman found the Troian Knights to their liking after a term as Squires. Warren Miller and Mort Smith were the only school basketball aspirants, although the pla- toon team was highly successful Art Crowley deserted the unit for V-5, while K ' .in Mix deserted the Coast Guard for the unit. Laughs were supplied by George Pratt Jr., a lad fresh from high school. Bob Picard and Gene Oswalt spent the semesters trying to outdo one another in strength feats.

A sub for Al, Bill Given, was handed the top spot mid-way through the second semester. Evidently a literary-minded outfit, the third contributed Steve Crosby, Jack Shad and the Pearson twins, Pep and Dick, to the El Rodeo. The twins also double talked as military editors of the Trojan. Chuck Peters was the only tennis aspirant, but foot- ball found giant Joe Stall and Herman Wescamp trotting around the grid.

Her 17th platoon ' s basketball team, captained by Sid Gilmore, fought its way to the finals in the inter-hall basketball tournament, and in the trophy case, along- side her War Chest contribution plaque, stands a bot- tle of the watery chlorine thru which her swimmers splashed to a triumphant victory in the inter-hall swimming meet. Under the direction of Chiefs Lund- berg and Kincannon 310 engineering trainees eat, sleep, work, and most important of all, study, and learn together. Mr Lundberg, formerly of the Uni- versity of Illinois, big 6 ft. 4 in., 240 lb. tackle, met Southern Cal. for the first time back in ' 39, when he and his teammates met the undefeated, Rose Bowl bound, Trojan eleven of that year in the coliseum. Mr. Kincannon, a two-year letterman in basketball and baseball from Arkansas State Teachers College, received a pleasant surprise when, for the first time since college days, he met his former teammate, now Chief Murphy, here on the SC campus. These men were former high school coaches, and are now doing a fine job of keeping Troy ' s trainees in shape. How- ard Callanan, one of SC ' s top gridders, Chet Salisbury, and Don Quinn served as Newkirk ' s battalion com- manders for a semester each. Besides displaying the leadership qualities essential to such a position, these men kept their battalion moving smoothly thru the navy routine, and carried the full load of units pre- scribed by the navy. The third company was led by Fred Red ' ' Benson for two semesters, who was fol- lowed by Bob Daigh. Rod ' ' Rodarmer, Steve Marosi, and Rolf motion arrested ' ' Pitts each led the 4th company for a semester. Don Quinn turned the 5th company over to Bob Butler when he became battalion commander. Not to be forgotten is battalion yeoman Ron Ewen, and also Norm Dickman, who had the thankless job of preventing the special liberty grafters from moving out of Newkirk altogether. The navy has a term which might be applied to the men and student officers of Newkirk Hall at the end of their 1st year. — Well done. fred benson Steve marosi don quinn COMPANY 3 platoon 9 , -«3i|?U ;- f,t ,f ,f x M x f N f 5|j £ ?i 5 J ft | .

In com- memoration of Lt. Owens, for extraordinary heroism and dis- tinguished service beyond the call of duty, Owens Hall was so named. Lt. Owens, an SC graduate, as a pilot of Torpedo Squadron Eight, in the Air Battle of Midway. grimly aware of the hazardous consequences of flying without fighter pro- tection, delivered an effective torpedo attack against an al- most solid barrage of anti-aircraft fire. His courageous action, carried out with a gallant spirit of self-sacrifice, was a deter- mining factor in the defeat of the enemy forces, and was in keeping with the highest traditions of the United States Naval Service — traditions which the men of Owens, like all men of the United States Navy, will uphold. Lt. Owens, miss- ing in action June 4, 1942, was awarded the Navy Cross and the Presidential Unit Citation by the President of the United States. That is but half of the hall ' s background. The other half, a much happier one, is that Owens was once the Sigma Chi Fraternity house, the only former fraternity house now used to billet navy trainees on the Trojan campus. Perhaps it was because Owens is the smallest hall on campus, billeting only 80 pre-med and pre-dental students, that these men dis- played their strong unity in support of every worthwhile cause brought to their attention. Owens is the only hall which can claim 100 per cent, to the man, support of the Red Cross blood donation campaign, and the highest per capita contribu- tion of any hall to the War Chest drive. Chief E. M. Ander- son, in charge of Owens and Navy Track Coordinator, earned his B.S. at Michigan State Normal, while attending on a foot- ball scholarship. Ralph Williams had a fine ba ckground to take over the responsible job of Company Commander, for he had been battalion Commander of the Santa Barbara High School Reserve Officers Training Corps After two semesters, he turned his position over to Jack Boyer, and at that time transferred from Pre-med to Basic Curricula, thus necessitat- ing a transfer to Henderson Hall, where he was made leader of the 3rd platoon John Lawler, the company ' s efficient yeoman, cooperated with Williams to help the hall achieve top honors in nearly every competitive field it entered. Ted King, the hall ' s master at arms, captained their swimming team, and participated in the inter-hall basketball tournament. Nicknamed The trap, Owens, the closest hall to the naval personnel offices, was constantly being called upon to provide messengers for the many errands arising. One definite conclusion has been reached after viewing this company in action — doctors can march — after all. 95 PILOTING THE 18th, John Kimball was one of the most active trainees on this campus. He represented Owens Hall on the Ser- viceman ' s War Board, was a member of the A.S.S.C. Senate, a Tro- jan Knight, and president of the Men ' s Council for the spring term. |ohn also joined Bob Haviken, Dick McKenna, Bill Allen, Mayfield Harris, and Ed Crosse to form the platoon basl team, captained by Wally May. Lover ' ' Hinds was the 1 Sth ' s gift to the Owens inter-hall swimming team. Although he claims no kin to Eddie Cantor, Eddie Crosse was affectionately nick- named, Banjo-eyes . Eddie and Mayfield Harris, two of Coach Cromwell ' s spikesters. will be worthy of considerable coming season. The ponderous title of Assistant Yeoman for the Sixth company was borne by Gill Cerds.

Jack Lawler, the company yeoman, marched with the 19th. Jack ' s most significant contribution to the hall in his official capacity came as a flawless method of sheet distribution. Of the two Christensens, Bob led the fellows in parades as right guide, and John was out in front scholastically. In athletics the 19th had cinder man Bob Carson, skier Dave Cubberley, and gymnast John Dunn within its ranks. In formation the 19th was one of the unit ' s snappiest platoons.

Jack, who had been a pharma- cist mate before entering V-12, followed Williams as the hall ' s commanding officer. Perhaps the most characteristic feature of the platoon evidenced in the past semesters has been its coopera- tive attitude and spirit of initiative. In basketball, marching, the War Chest Drive, in every undertaking the 20th was all out. Its enviable War Chest contribution was sufficient to capture first place in the entire V-12 unit. Interesting personalities were no rarity, Dick Sherwood will be remembered for his agility in ma- nipulating cards. Ken Potter ' s tall tales were especially enjoyed by everyone. The platoon bank was Harry Altaffer. Herbert Skoble liked the unit so well he seldom left it — even on week- ends. Bob Worthman, known to his friends as Booker T is not the last of the 20th ' s personalities but completes the picture. COMPANY 6 platoon 20 not pictured n. halaiian on the dotted line scuttle butt i;ood evening — 101 WILLIAMS HALL CHIEF SPECIALIST michael murphy COMPANY COMMANDER LAST OF THE FOUR V-12 halls to be commissioned was Williams, located on far off 34th street. In July, Williams was lived in only by Marine trainees. With the shrinking of the Marine unit and the growth of the V-12s, Williams came to be half Marines and half V-12s. Under the watchful eye of Chief Murphy, Williams has developed into a clean and efficient part of the unit. Chief Murphy, once an Arkansas University athlete, has been top officer at Williams ever since her commission, and only recently did he relinquish his com- mand. Williams is composed of a mixture of V-5s and V-12s, the V-5s destined for duty as Air Corps Ensigns and the V-12s as line, engineering and supply officers. These boys worked and marched together, learning co-operation in its strictest sense. Williams Hall is especially proud of its reputation as a marching group. Under Marine instruction the men of this barracks gained much praise, in spite of their brief training. Much of the credit for the discipline and appearance of the Williams trainees goes to Battalion Commander Elmer McKee- ver, a former first class petty officer from the fleet. Likeable, smiling Mac , a Sig Ep, took pride in his men and saw to it that they drilled long and hard until they rounded into 4.0 shape. The men at Williams are almost entirely recent high school graduates or former fleet men. It was the job of Master-at- Arms, Bob Watt, to keep these boys quiet during study hours and to apportion out work details. Rumor has it Mr. Watt was a mighty popular man on Saturday mornings. In March, Williams was evacuated of all Marines and turned over entirely to the navy. Present Chief in command is Ath- letic Specialist Hill. elmer mc kccvcr COMPANY OFFICERS r. j- watt dick morrison howard mc lain T J 1 V 102 COMPANY 7 platoon 1 front row r. p. daves f. e. holmberg r. w. shaw k.

Williams Hall had lit- tle chance to develop any real b.m.o.c. ' s. They did, however, bring out many personalities that will be long remembered. Privates Rossi and Larson provided their platoon with laughs until they were split up early in 1944. In marching competition, as in any other thing the first platoon attempted, they had wonderful spirit. A high scholastic standard was attained by the first group of Williams hopefuls who lost only two men to the Naval Train- ing Station. Led by Bill Fade, the initial V- 1 2 platoon in Wil- liams set a fine example for the rest of the company. Drilled at first by Marine non-ccms, these boys really stepped out and de- veloped into a group of polished drillers after only a few weeks on Campus. The first disliked most the long walk and wait for chow, as popular opinion showed. keep that left you hjvc 3 point the lobby COMPANY 7 platoon 2 g. luebben g. herman d. mc bride I. stabler j. crook j. ley w. wessendorf second row j. s.

Composed mainly of newcomers to the Trojan campus, these fellows developed a spirit of mterplatoon friendliness of which they readily boast. Platoon leader of the Twenty first was Alick Luebben, drillman delux. Earl Bohannan demonstrated his ability as desk master-at-arms. Boogie Beater |ack Yale beat some mighty solid piano renditions out on the piano. Pat Ley and Johnnie Kavanaugh managed to supply their share of entertain- ment for their mates lat the wrong time . Scrubly Scribner, right guide, prided himself in his ability to walk a straight line. Chuck Curland and Earl Vipond were known for their aeronautical aspirations. Squad leaders Harry Goldman, George Becker, and Smoky Tennis were devoted drill leaders. Louie Cook was known to his followers as the student , accumulating a proficent record in scholastic endeavors. Ray Evarts and Wally Johnson were the athletic components of the platoon. inspection ' s tomor don ' t slip 104 COMPANY 7 platoon 3 front row r starkweather ■ V J isworth w. j. fade p. schroeder c. c. ben ton • _. •. r. h. taylor r. r. guthrie h. d. brumbaugh second row 3f?A j. d. doerr e. h. atchley g. 1. coale h. h. wehrman 1. g. hoflen f. v. salmen j. p. barich r. j. watt • third row 1 n 1 r. campbell r. 1. simonds V g. w. steams J r. w. morris 1. b. alexander 2: r. h. fisher -V LOSINC MORE MEN to boot camp than any other platoon, the final platoon in Williams was considerably undersized as the semester drew to a close. Composed of many future Navy pilots, as well as deck officer candidates, the 3rd was led by Ralph Starkweather, who had such drill experts as Larry Alexander, jack Doerr and Joe Barich under his wing. Serving as platoon Chap- lain was the Right Reverend George Stearns, who was given the title by his buddies. He is rumored to have led services in com- memoration of the members of his outfit that fell in the battle of Bovard Field. When liberty was imperiled, Campbell, Schroe- der and Atchley were at their best, but of course aren ' t we all? When the entire hall was taken over by the navy the first was composed of veterans of many campaigns fought on Troy ' s campus.  TjflH blow [acrid the army A. S. T.

These trainees assemble and spend a period five mornings a week in carry- ing on military exercises. This training prepares them for the physical exertions they will meet in the field of battle after their graduation. This drill takes place before their first classes in the morning. The medical students drill on the grounds of the county hospital, while the dental students use a field near the dental clinic. Each group has its own internal organization with a company commander, first sergeant, pla- toon leaders, and squad leaders. Those trainees holding these posts do so for a short period. At the end of this time they rotate, giving the other students the experience of command- ing a group and the training in leadership so necessary to the army officer. The headquarters of these Pfc ' s is on the campus and well represented, as are the offices of the other branches of the armed services. On the second floor of the law building can be found the large group of offices and extensive files of the A.S.T.U. The complete training of these men covers a period of three years During this time they take the regular medi- cal or dental courses plus the military training program The last two years are spent in clinical work. The dental stu- dents work on patients at the dental clinic under the super- vision of the dental faculty. The medical students spend a similar amount of time working at the county hospital on patients. They usually spend five and a half days a week in the clinic, their day being from eight hundred to sixteen hun- dred, plus home study. Upon graduation, these men receive reserve commissions as first lieutenants in the Army of the United States ' Medical or Dental Corp. At this time the den- tal officers go to an army orientation course before being as- signed to their individual posts. The medical officers are put on inactive duty to complete their internship, at the end of which time they are called back into active service to play their part in the efforts of the Army Medical Corp.

UNDER THE STRESS of wartime demands, University College has expanded its program to include high- ly specialized courses in engineering, civil aeronautics and science. With instruction offered in thirty-seven departments of the accredited collegiate curriculum, it is possible for people who are unable to attend col- lege in regular sessions to complete all requirements for degrees in Letters, Arts, and Sciences. Education. Engineering, Social Work, and many others. While it is impossible to offer a complete collegiate life to University College students in the limited even- ing sessions, numerous student activities have been organized to care for this phase of university training, as The Trojan Owl. official publication of University College, published weekly, and leading women in AS UC activities are honored by membership in Omega Alpha Delta, service sorority. activities BILL CALDWELL — Bill was elected to studeit body presidency in the spring of 1943 but answered the call of his country as did many of his fellow students in October of the same year. Previous to this he was the Trojan business manager and the Kappa Alphas selected him as their president. Bill brought to the office of Student Body President the sincerity, affability and friendliness which established him as one of the leaders on the Trojan cam- pus long ago. The success of the few activities which were left in a restricted college life was due to his relentless effrot. He may well be proud of the year he efficiently started. 116 LETA CALENTINE — After the departure of Bill Caldwell, Leta quickly took over the reins of acting A S.S.C. prexy and served for the rest of the term. She was naturally energetic, keeping up the business of both offices, and keeping the campus in its serious and alert at- titude towards its wartime activities The DCs claim her as one of the sisters. Leta suc- cessfully divided her time between Amazons. Mortar Board, and was a member of Phi Beta Kappa and Phi Kappa Phi In recognition of her outstanding accomplishments as a gradu- ating senior woman she received the Town and Gown award 117 TED COHRT was the shortest term prexy in the history of USC. He answered to the call of his country two weeks after receiving his office and in his limited term he started to guide the campus in its true navy spirit. Ted, with his warm, shy smile and friendly attitude was a member of the N.R.O.T.C. and the President of the Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity. Being a chairman of the Greater University Committee and a member of the men ' s council gave him ample experience to fulfill his position with ease. The K nights selected this tall lad to be their Vice-President. Ill f m -ft JEAN WORKINC acted as official hostess of the University by reason of her position. She kept alive traditions of the campus even in the time of war and always represented the friendly spirit of the school wherever she went Not only was this Pi Phi miss active in the Amazons and Mortar Board, but she was acting Student Body President after the depart- ure of Ted Cohrt Previous to this semester she was Pan-Hellenic President. 119 DOROTHY SMITH served as secre- tary under Bill Caldwell and Leta Calentine. Whenever things were tangled up she always had time to stop and straighten them out. Her sun-tanned face was always crossed with a flashing smile reflecting her cheerful attitude with which she always solved the problems of a sec- retary. She was affiliated with the Kappa Delts. As previous training for this occupation she was Pan- Hellenic president, a member of Mortar Board, Amazons, Spooks and Spokes, and Phi Kappa Phi. During the semester that she was secretary, she handled the social calendar for the school. At present she is in officers training school for the Waves dorothy smith ALPHA CAM ' S Helen )anet spent her time taking volumes of notes and taking care of correspondence for the Student Body This blonde miss was never seen on campus without a gay hello and a smile for each person, which accounted for her numerous friends. With all of these qualities it seemed only nat- ural that this well known Amazon be elected to the number three po- sition in the Student Body Admin- istration. Helen Janet ' s activities were greatly varied and each was done as thoroughly as the other. She was extremely active on the Council of Religion and all of the thanks for the entertaining assemblies can be given to her. heli n janct sims !20 THE SENATE is the governing body of the school It was necessary to take a new and more serious attitude in this term because of the establishment of the Navy, and Marines on Campus.

The managing editor was Edgar Diener, a member of the NROTC unit, Business Managers Bill Ryan and Durward Howes all left to carry on more important assignments in a larger foun- dation. The second semester saw the woman power of Troy swing into the pace. Pat Ebey was assisted by Mary Ann Callan and the rest of the staff was composed almost completely of women. Ralph Peters was the business manager for the semester. 148 pep pearson, warren steinbers; and dick pearson tyler mac donald hclen jejn myCrs, bill waters and chrisfinc me alp as City desk 149 el rodeo ALTHOUGH THE EL RODEO had a late start this year, it progressed rapidly under the capable guidance of LaMarr Stewart and Tyler McDonald, respectively. LaMarr turned his place over to Tyler be- cause he was a member of the N.R. O.T.C. and received his commission in February of 1944. After his de- parture Tyler McDonald, who was previously the business manager and promoter of the year book, became editor. Although he had no previous experience he quickly took over the reins of the book, and fulfilled the job adequately. McDonald is a member of the Marine Corps re- serve and participates actively in debate, taking several national hon- ors. In order to keep in trend with the speeded program, the book has an entire military theme all the way through. Formal and informal pic- tures are shown so that the reader can see how college life has taken on a military manner with ease. The accuracy of all of the military data can be credited to the cooperation of the navy and students who worked on the book. John tylcr mac donald la marr Stewart 150 stcvc crosby joe kr.ius THE POSITION of associate editor of the El Rodeo went to Steve Crosby. Steve started working on the year book when he was a freshman and by his sophomore year he was appointed to this job. The many hours of relentless effort and patience of this Kappa Alpha and member of the Navy V-12 unit, were all combined with the efforts of others to make this book possible. Before Steve Crosby took his position, joe Kraus was art editor of the book, joe was a member of the Marine corps reserve and left for an advanced school in February. He saw that the book was correct in an artistic manner. Acting as co-photographers of the year book were Bob Littlejohn, and Ted Smith, Phi Psi These boys were both members of the Marine corps and spent all of their free hours taking shots for the book Phi Sig ' s Bob Tapp was business manager after Tyler became editor. The effective layout and volume of the advertising section was a demonstration of his business ability He also had charge of distribution of the book Clarice Thurman is the girl who was responsible for the book coming out Although Clarice was a minor editor at the beginning of the book, she acted as the assistant editor in place of Steve Crosby She unselfishly did the job of several people, and was always willing to do more than her part dance thurman ted smith and bob littlejohn bob tapp 151 jo neal henrietta mc lean jack cortright and Virginia owtns JO NEAL, Alpha Delta Pi, Editor of this section. Jack Cortright, Sigma Phi Delta, did the Army and the NROTC divi- sions of the military section. Jack divided his time writing for the Trojan, and working on the El Rodeo staff. Virginia Owens, Delta Gamma, was co-editor of the personality section. This entailed selecting outstanding students on campus judged by their grades and activities as student leaders. Henrietta McLean. Pi Beta Phi, was office manager of the staff. This job contained many tasks which would be impossible to mention in detail. She performed these details with a cheery smile at all times. Ed Diener was the first military editor on the staff. Ed was commissioned an ensign in February and called to active duty. Pat Summerton, Alpha Delta Pi. was photography coordinator for the staff. She was the go-be- tween for the editors and the photographers. Pat transfered lists back and forth, seeing that the editors got the proper pictures which they requested. Warren Steinberg came to the staff as sports editor from UCLA. Warren served in the position as Sports Editor due to his past experience as Sports editor of the Bruin and the Trojan. edgar diener pat summerton warren Steinberg dick ind pep pcarson sylvia lovcll colleen phipps and marilee Carlson MILITARY EDITORS for the book were Pep and Dick Pearson, Sig Ep twins. They spent every minute of their spare time getting information about the different barracks, finding outstanding members and getting complete lists of names. The informal as well as the formal side of military life was stressed Sylvia Lovell. Chi Omega, was general office irl The staff owes undying appreciation to Sylvia for her untiring and relentless effort to accomplish all tasks desired by them. Colleen Phipps and Marilee Carlson, Alpha Delta Pi, were co-editors of the Sorority and Fraternity section. They divided the task of obtaining membership lists and bits of information about outstanding members of the house Jack Shad as- sisted in the military section and aided Bob Tapp with the advertising department. Patches Quaintaince, Alpha Chi Omega, Pat Townsend and Pat Sheridan all were assistants in every way, helping the book come out. Patches was in office work, Pat Townsend did all of the cartoons and Pat Sheridan was the photographers ' assistant.

THE STAFF. 155 fynn cohnc, editor wampus THIS WAS THE YEAR of revamping of the Wampus magazine. Lynn Cohne, Alpha Epsilon Phi took the magazine over last summer and remained editor for the entire year. Her idea was to turn this college humor magazine into a higher type of publication, devoting more space to short stories, cartoon, pictures and jokes. The pages were increased to ap- proximately ten more than had previously been used and consequently the staff was increased. Pat Conrad served as busi- ness manager, Frank McMahon, Delta Tau Delta, advertising manager. Frank was also a Trojan editor and held a posi- tion on the war-board. Florence Garrison was the executive secretary and has worked on the Wampus in other years. Warren Miller, Sigma Nu, directed the art staff. While working on the Wampus he also put out a cartoon book of his entitled The Navy Goes to College. This is the artist man with a future, and we hope to see many more cartoon books by him. June Allen, Alpha Delta Pi, was the circulation editor for the year. This job was doubly important because she had the responsibility of getting the Wampus to the readers on time, where it would be most convenient to locate them. chris mc alpin florence garrison zn miller and miriam franz 156 COPY EDITINC for the Wamp was the job of Helen Jean Meyers. This was not her only position either, she wrote short stories, did general office work, and submitted jokes for the book. Helen )ean proved to be one of the most valuable people on the staff. Cheery Ruth Rasdale. ADPi. was circulation manager after June Allen graduated from this position These girls have the responsibility of getting the magazine out in convenient places for purchasing )o Neal. Alpha Delta Pi. was exchange editor. She exchanged magazines with the different colleges throughout the United States, bringing new ideas to each other The jokes were handled in the same manner by the same girl. Bill Driggs. Phi Sigma Kappa, was a member of the art Staff He wasn ' t discovered until the second semsster but his cartoons were well worth waiting for. This ver- satile young man was also an accomplished musician. June alien jo ncal wllliam driggs TOMMYS AM i marge hydc jack collis and Jackie krugcr roy paul nelson PUBLICITY GIRL for the Staff was Marge Hyde. ADPI. It was through her efforts that the Campus was informed that the Humor Mag was out. Jack Col- lis, was another one of the art staff, jack was renowned for his famous car- toons in that Collis manner Ruth Connell was also a member of the Art Staff, specializing on posters along with Lee Ingham. These girls created the posters that made people look forward to each new Wampus. Roy Paul Nelson became famous for his story The Three Legged Moth Ball. This was one of the most humorous articles that had been printed for the entire year. It ' s fame was far reaching and noted for the dry humor involved. Mary Ann Callan, Bob Meyers, Delta Tau Delta; Stan Musgrove, Sigma Chi; and Norma Lieber- man were a group of the famed contributes It was through these people that the Wamp covered the Campus news and got the Latest Stuff . Shirley Black- man, Marty Hayden, Pat Menzies, Dolly Williams, Marion Goldman, Virginia Zerman, Mary Beliveau, Cinny Brumfield, Cinny Kaspar, Maryanna Bridgeman, Audry Farrar, Virginia Cuttridge and Maryjane Fraser are all people that did the general work this year and will be the leaders on the staff next year. These people were all new to the Staff and are working their way up to a big future. They did the detail work in the office, ran errands, made trips down town, an- swered phones, and typed copy. They were all important in making the Wampus the smooth running organization that it was and will continue to be in the fu- ture The Editorial Staff consisted of Jackie Kruger, Jackie Wilman, Bill Wat- ers, Don Eugster, Dick and Pep Pearson. The editorial staff contributed the poems, jokes, stories, bits of gossip and stories about people on campus. Re- flecting the wit of it ' s unusually talented staff this past year was the entrance of the famed Sylvia Jones in the El Rodeo Queen contest. Sylvia turned out to be none other than Carl Nixon, Delta Tau Delta With the aid of Max Factor he was turned into a lovely blonde damsel for the photograph required to enter the contest. This story was in the paper from coast to coast. Under the guid- ance of the group shown on these pages the Wampus reached greater heights than ever before, featuring new make ups, much photography and many new features. This magazine was so edited to appeal to all, to the intellectual and to the wit. mary ann callan bob myer and sran musgrove mary beliveau and jackic willman lee ingham shirley blackman norma lieberman athletics ARNOLD EDDY— Upon Troy ' s graduate manager fell the task of keeping Trojan sports alive despite wartime restrictions. Although forced to take on added burdens because the armed services claimed many members of the athletic de- partment, coaches as well as others, Troy ' s genial athletics head still found time to attend to the little things that have characterized the graduate manager ' s office in previous years. PACKARD THURBER — Be- coming a tradition around SC is Old Sawbones Dr. Thur- ber. Officially dubbed Medical Athletic Director, Dr. Thurber is a regular patron of the Tro- jan bench during football sea- son. Although they know he only goes into action when someone has been hurt, play- ers and coaches alike are glad to have him around in an emergency. DICK NASH— Tricky Dick dotes on getting Troy publicity, not only in downtown news- papers, but in periodicals throughout the nation as well. An ardent Trojan fan all his life, Dick maintains the most complete file on Trojan sports of anyone in the country. Of- ficially, he is the head of the Athletic News Service. arnold eddy dr. packard thurber ■ football JEFF CRAVATH — Faced with the task of m tions, Jeff, in his second year as Trojan head engagement, a decisive win over the Washing posed of gridders from all parts of the Gold the T formation at Troy.

When injuries hit the squad, Gus always had a reserve back ready to fill in The fine out-of-bounds punting of SC ' s booters was the result of Cuss patient mentoring SHELBY CALHOUN — Time and again this Southern Gentleman was called upon to supply new first string men and he always obliged. It was Shelby ' s line that kept opponents out of the scoring column for the first six tilts. As a moulder of great lines, Shelby cannot be topped. ROY BAKER — Naval representative on the grid staff was Lieutenant Baker, (then Chief Baker I who was affectionately known as Bullet. A Trojan backfield ace of former years, Bullet gave the rest of the coach- ing staff considerable aid. Cridders remember him best for the devastating calisthenics he put them through each day before practice. GLEN CALVIN — In addition to playing professional football, holding a defense job, and coaching the jay- vees, Clen found time to help teach the varsity ends. His work in developing stars out of jayvee players, such as Milford Dreblow, aided the varsity squad no end by adding vital depth in both line and backfield. BOB WINSLOW — Never can Troy claim to have more topnotch ends than during the 1943-44 season. Credit for developing this fine flankman rests with Bob. A great wingman in his own right. Bob wound up with an all-American, Captain Ralph Heywood, and also tutored Corden Cray, Jim Callanan, Don Hardy, Pete MacPhail and John Dominis. chief roy baker l?lcn galvin ari ' A0 Icttermen of ' 43 — reading counterclockwise bill gray, mickey mc cardie, howard callanan. captain ralph hcywood, gordon gray, jim callanan. don hardy, pete mac phail, John dominie, ainslie bell, ted ossowski, mike garzoni. ray ingle, bill pata- poff , joe wolf. 166 fit ?B % ; • wh ' itZ ' 3 , - r di ?

Iron man of the team, triple-threat. Jim ' s performance was a fitting climax to his season ' s play. NORM VERRY — Chosen captain for this game. Norm justified the faith put in him. Although he had not performed since the first game of the season because of a knee injury, the big fellow played an inspirational de- fensive role in Troy ' s win. Norm earned his fourth SC varsity football let- ter, the first Trojan to do so in many years. GEORGE CALLANAN — Despite the fact that he was only a sophomore, George paced Trojan scoring for the season. He kept alive the Callanan family record of having scored in every winning game. Fast and shifty, he eluded Husky backs to catch two touchdown passes and clinch an SC Rose Bowl win. AINSLIE BELL — Unique indeed is the story of Ainslie, who had never played football before this season. He took over the starting quarterback berth in the Rose Bowl game and handled the team like a veteran. His only pass of the contest netted the final Trojan score. jim hardy 168 ROSE BOWL «■ Hardy to Ccorgc Callanan. netted the scco nd Trojan tally. Tracy made a futile attempt to stop Callanan.

The debut was a successful one as Jeff Cravath ' s charges chalked up a 20-0 victory. Mickey McCardle, spark of last year ' s team, pitched beautiful aerials from his quarterback berth. Captain Ralph Heywood nabbed a throw on the Bruin 37 yard line in the second quarter and lateralled to fleet-footed Howard Callanan for the first score. Duane Whitehead, freshman fullback, punched over another touchdown on a two yard plunge 1 5 seconds before the halftime whistle. Sen sation of the second half was Eddie Saenz. The former Loyola speedball romped 86 yards for a tally in the third period. EDDIE SAENZ — The former Loyola fireball scampered 86 yards to one touchdown and gained 108 yards in eight trips with the pigskin Eddie was Troy ' s top ball-carrier this season. BRUCE GELKER — This blonde-tousled demon played steady ball all afternoon. Dependable was the word for Bruce. A transfer from Santa Ana, he nevertheless fitted the T perfectly. sc20 uclaO 70 California IOURNEYINC northward for their second conference tilt, the Cardinal and Cold foot- ballers engaged the Berkeley Bears. After 60 minutes of hardfought football the locals emerged victorious. 7-0. The lone score was recorded in the first stanza Following two fine runs by Eddie Saenz and Mickey Mc- Cardle. Howard Callanan churned over left tackle on a reverse to enter pay dirt seven yards away. Time and again the Trojans marched deep into California territory only to be thwarted by penalties or fumbles The Bears were not able to penerate enemy territory farther than the 36 yard line Highlight of an otherwise dull second half was a 50 yard run by the aforementioned Callanan After receiving a short pass from Captain Ralph Heywood on the Trojan 20 yard line. Howard tore down the sidelines all the way to the Cal 30. HOWARD CALLANAN — Speedy, tricky, and hardworking, Howard sparked Troy dur- ing the first half of the season. Against the Bears he scored the lone touchdown of the game. Troy was dealt a severe blow when he left for midshipman ' s school. PETE MacPHAIL — Long on defense and short on offense was Uncle Peter.

Following several scares in the first quarter, All-American Bruce Smith playing the part of boo- gie-man for the visitors, SC turned on the heat to record a handy 1 3-0 triumph. After Eddie Saenz had broken up a Pre- flight scoring threat by intercepting a Smith pass on the goal line and returning it to the Trojan 39-yard line, lightning struck the Airdevils. Jim Hardy whipped a flat, bullet aerial to Captain Ralph Heywood, who hightailed it down the north- ern sidelines of the Coliseum greensward 61 yards to pay dirt. It was not until the third quarter that Troy penetrated the visitors ' defense for another six points. With Howard and Jim Callanan clearing the way, brother George scampered nine yards around left end for the final score. RALPH HEYWOOD — All-American Ralph justified retiring Old 87 by a great performance against the Preflight. Not only did he sprint 61 yards for the first score and set up the second tally, but he also did a great job of punting. DICK JAMISON — Willingly switching from tackle to guard, Automatic Dick played fine team ball all year. Dick was valued for his place-kicking and punting as well as line play. scl3 smnO 172 s. f. u. YOU CANT stop em if you can ' t catch ' em. The University of San Francisco Dons learned the truth in this axiom when they were subdued by the Trojans, 34-0. Troy rolled up more than 450 yards as they steamrollered their way to victory over the undermanned Dons Eight Trojans entered the scoring column. Highlights of the game included a 55 yard touchdown jaunt by Mickey McCardle on a quarterback sneak, a 26-yard run from punt formation in the end zone by Captain Ralph Heywood, and a -43 yard trip to the checkered zone by Eddie Saenz after he had returned a punt 16 yards. Jeff Cravath gave his entire squad a workout as he cleared the bench of players. MIKE CARZONI— This husky transfer from Fresno was the only player to start every game. Tough to move, Mike proved a bulwork on defense, particularly against the Dons. EDSEL CURRY — A track man by reputa- tion, Edsel turned into a topnotch back. His high spot was the Don game. Dean Crom- well ' s broad-jumper gained 58 yards in five tries at the USF line. sc34 edsci curry mike garxori sfuO to Xfe, Eddie Saenz is shown packing the pigskin on a 43 yard scoring jaunt through the entire Don eleven. mm V. 173 c. o. p. With the score tied the final period Howard Callanan nabbed this pass for the la score of the contest. mickey mc cardie joe wolf WHAT HAD been slated as a breather turned out to be the best game of the season when the Trojans collided with Col- lege of Pacific. 65,000 thrill-crazed fans saw the elevens battle on even terms for three quarters. Finally, in the fourth period, a pass from George Callanan to brother Howard on the ten yard line dented the stout-hearted Tiger defense for the lone touchdown of the bitterly fought fray. The tilt was characterized by many threats of offensive might, threats which constantly fell short. Line play was fierce. Pre-game ceremonies found Troy honoring the famed Pacific coach, Amos Alonzo Stagg, for his contribution to the game of foot- ball over a period of more than a half century. Rose Bowl was on the lips of many fans after the 6-0 win over College of Pacific. JOE WOLF — Credit for the best clutch performance of the season must go to Joe. With Bill Gray in Oregon, Joe played 60 minutes of terrific football, realizing that there were no experienced subs on the bench. The husky center performed steadily all year. MICKEY McCARDLE — Star of last year, Mickey was handi- capped by injury and the T formation. Nevertheless, his pass- ing and signal-calling were big factors in Trojan wins. Mickey was Ali-Coast again. Parris Island claimed him in mid-season. sc 6 copO 74 California i.. ; -Pi%S ; LZ l ► nil still wondering how Cordon Cr 89 ' cvadea this bevy of Cal tacklcrs to tally the first Trojan touchdown. gordon gray jim callanan SC PROVED it had the Bears ' number when the locals met and defeated California. 13-0. in a game that was virtually a repetition of their opening clash It was the sixth straight Trojan win and the sixth straight game in which the foe failed to score, the first time SC had compiled such a record Cor- don Cray, fleetfooted freshman end. supplied the punch for the first touchdown Jim Hardy fired a six yard pass to Cray on the Cal 45-yard marker, and Cordon catapulted his way out of a nest of four Bears to sDrint his way to a score, two min- utes before the halftime gun Eddie Saenz sparked a drive that led Troy 38 yards in seven plays to the California 12 yard line.

V N84- U v £■ n ' John dominis bill gray PLAGUED BY a bad case of fumblitis, the Cravathmen were submarined by San Diego Naval Training Station, 10-7, for their first loss of the season San Diego made its opening pass good for a touchdown, but SC tied it up in the second quar- ter on a sensational play. Milford Dreblow hit center to the Navy 40 and then lateralled to Bill Cray, all-Coast center, the latter lugging the pigskin to the promised land. Sparked by Bill Cadenhead the Bluejackets drove to the Trojan 13, where they proceeded to make good a field goal attempt. Undaunt- ed the locals came back with a drive that didn ' t stall until it hit the one foot mark. But try as they might, they couldn ' t punch the ball across to pay dirt, and the Trojan grid machine was derailed for the first time. Steak dinners, courtesy the Navy, helped to soothe Troy ' s Footballers. BILL CRAY — Calm and quiet personally, Bill was a human dynamo on the field. Sensational blocking, terrific tackling, and a 40-yard touchdown run of a lateral made his choice as All-Coast center a certainty. JOHN DOMINIS — Filling in for jim Callanan, John did a great job. Bluejacket backs found it mighty difficult making yard- age around his end. John proved a fine reserve. SC 7 sdnlO 176 march field JACK JACOBS is a n.imc that will live long in infamy, as far as Trojan rooters are con- cerned. The Oklahoma all-American pitched three touchdown passes and scored one touchdown himself as the Fourth Air Force from March Field handed SC a 35-0 lacing. Because of injuries. Jeff Cravath was forced to employ a youthful backfield. a backfield that lacked the experience to counteract Jacobs ' great passing. The Tro|an linemen proved that they could handle themselves in any competition as they repeatedly stymied the Flyer ground attack A pass. Ainslie Bell to Cordon Cray, carried the Cravathmen to the March Field 25 yard line in the final period, but the lone SC threat of the day failed to net a touchdown. Despite the de- cisive way in which March Field won the game, first downs stood only ten to nine in favor of the Flyers.

When the shouting died down SC was on the long end of the count, 26-13. Typi- cal of the game was the first Trojan touchdown. With the Bruins no their own 23 yard line Don Malmberg dropped back to kick. Big Bill Cray came charging through to block the kick and Cordon Cray picked up the bounding pigskin carry- ing it all the way to pay dirt. A blocked kick and an 84 yard run of an intercepted lateral gave UCLA a ! 3-7 lead at half- time. Ted Ossowski recovered a fumble on the Bruin 20 on the opening play of the second half. Two plays later George Callanan was across the goal on a 1 3 yard run. With the score tied in the final period Johnny Evans battled his way to the Bruin six from where Earle Parsons scored two plays later. Eddie Saenz completed the UCLA demise with a 40 yard punt return for a touchdown in the last minute of play. JOHNNY EVANS — A late comer to the squad, )ohnny made up for his tardiness with some fine running. In eight ball- packing efforts against the Bruins he gained 64 yards. DUANE WHITEHEAD— Converted from blocking back to fullback, Duane was quick to learn his new duties. The for- mer Bonita high flash was valued both defensively and offen- sively. sc26 ucla 13 178 c iptjin : ilph hcywood CAPTAIN RALPH HEYWOOD Old 87 hit the retired list this year, and it ' s about time. After three years of out- standing play at left end for Troy, Ralph became the twelfth Trojan to be named All-American by the All America Board of Football Always rated a topnotch pun- ter and pass catcher, big Ralph also proved his worth this season as a passer and even a runner upon occasion. His defensive work was just as rugged as ever. Hard work plus a natural aptitude for football enabled Ralph to be a stand- out Although he only played during the first half of the season, All-American choosers throughout the nation rated the Trojan flankman tops. BILL CRAY — The greatest defense cen- ter I have ever seen, is the praise Coach jeff Cravath bestowed on the former Oregon Stater. Crashing tackles and an uncanny sense of where the next play was going, Bill was a great line backer. Chos- en All-Coast by gridiron critics through- out the west. Bill was voted the Davis Teschke Award by his teammates for be- ing the man who was the most inspira- tional player on the team. HOWARD CALLANAN — Speedy and shifty, Howard fitted the T perfectly. Always a scoring threat, he tallied the lone S.C. score in two games. Sports writers called him All-Coast and team- mates considered him a great guy person- ally. The coaching staff dubbed him a perfect player to coach. His loss to mid- shipman school in midseason was a severe blow. MICKEY McCARDLE Swivel hips McCardle was the passing star of the early season. As quarterback he did little running, but his all-around play earned him All-Coast recognition. Light but gritty, foes found his quarterback sneaks dynamite, his passes murder, and his de- parture for Parris Island boot camp a blessing. how.lrd c.lll.in.in bill .;r iv lickcy mc cardie russ burkctt cddic himbury bob hartley FOOTBALL .

As senior manager he did everything from getting the gridders dates to clubbing them over the head to keep them from eating sweets. Russ was one happy male when the grid season ended. Footballers were grateful. EDDIE HIMBURY — Bumps and bruises were Eddie ' s specialty as he trudged up and down the field during grid practice. Whenever the gridders received an injury it was Eddie and his big black bag that proved the panacea. Troy ' s trainer was a busy man all year keeping an eye on Trojan athletes. BOB BARTLEY — When Troy ' s athletic teams came trotting on the field gaily bedecked in the Cardinal and Gold uniforms, Bob couldn ' t help giving a sigh of relief. As equipment manager Bob was respon- sible for seeing that SC ' s athletes had their equipment when and where thev needed it. basketball ■ ERNIE HOLBROOK — The coach of Troy ' s championship quintet of 1943 returned to his Alma Mater the following season and was getting along handsomely until Mr. Whiskers pointed a finger and said. Come with me, Private Holbrook. A former high- scoring forward for SC (1933-35), Hol- brook is regarded as perhaps the outstand- ing basketball mentor to have been pro- duced at Troy. He possessed a happy fac- ulty of being able to mix with his athletes as one of the boys, and yet maintain their full confidence as the boss. t BOBBY MUTH — Taking over the team in mid-season after Holbrook had been called to the Army, the former SCer three-year letterman (1934-36) did a fine coaching job in the face of adversities. Muth handled the coaching position on a part-time basis, being employed in a de- fense industry administrative job. Bobby is a true student of the Trojan basketball sys- tem of Sam Barry and was a handy fellow to have around when Holbrook was sudden- ly beckoned to don Uncle Sam ' s khaki. 82 front row: John babick, bob ncwland. bob vogcl. capf. dick bailey, art nickloff, dcmil waldcn. jim ccon. w: chief andy anderson. bob Howard, mickey brophy. coach bobby muth. bob marfin, joe cherry, mgr. sylvan goldingcr. FROM THE WIN and loss standpoint the Trojan basketball season was far from a success, but there are other guages aside from victories. With only one letterman on hand from the 1943 powerhouse. Coaches Ernie Holbrook and Bobby Muth moulded a representative team which, although not winning a majority of games, was in the thick of it from whistle to whistle. Only one game was won in six played in the war-curtailed Pacific Coast Con- ference southern division schedule and the Trojans wound up in the cellar, but the record shows that in three of the five defeats the SC team scored just as many field goals as the opposition Had the free throw percentage been up and the Trojans won these games, this volume would now be hailing the Car- dinal and Cold basketeers as champions. In keeping with conditions, the Trojan schedule included only service and college opponents from within the state; this in contrast to the previous schedule when the Trojans enjoyed a six-game barnstorming trip to New York and a final playoff at Seattle CAPT. DICK BAILEY — The solitary letterman returning from the 1943 team, Dick inherited the captaincy and proved to be a capable team leader. He was the iron man ' ' of the team in playing time and was regarded as the defen- sive genius of the season for shutting the door in the faces of such impressive scorers as Hank Luisetti of St Mary ' s Pre-Flight and Kenny Sailors of the San Diego Marines. Bailey earned second team all-division mention. 183 officials didn ' t call this; but we ' d guess luisetti is getting the business from bob howard and dick bailey. THE TROJANS opened the season with a defeat by Caltech, showing a lack of unity so typical of an opener, but followed with two victories over Roosevelt Navy Base and a win over the San Pedro Y.M.C.A. Los Alamitos Navy, led by Alex Omalev of ' 43 Trojan fame, edged out the Trojans, and then the SC quintet went south on a war-time barnstorming trip to San Diego There the San Diego Naval Training Station quintet was beat- en, but the undefeated San Diego Marines trimmed the Tro- jans. Caltech was next beaten and then the Trojans defeated 20th Century-Fox in their last game before opening confer- ence play. practice john babick ART NICKLOFF — Fast and agressive, with a good right hand push, Art joined the club late, but was a valuable player. Up from the |ayvees Art was capable of playing either guard or forward. His one- man forays down the court were a sight to behold. This dark-haired fireball up- held the honor of the NROTC. He was 5 ft. II in. and 170 lbs. of muscle. JOHN BABICK — Elevated to a first string guard berth in early season play, John was forced to vacate his spot by the in- spired play of Mickey Brophy. A con- stant threat to break away for a set-up, |ohn was frequently inserted into the fracas as a substitute. Standing 6 ft. and weighing 170 lbs., this San Diego State eager, another marine, was aggressive off the backboard. hank luisctti do;s .1 whirling dervish, with joe cherry and dick b.-ilcy tap-dancing a couple of choruses themselves. games THE TAC-END of the Trojan season was marked by a seven- game streak of defeats, although several wer e by close scores One of these was at the hands of undefeated St. Mary ' s Pre- Flight, headed by the incomparable Hank Luisetti With less than a minute to go the score was tied at 44-44, but two quick buckets sewed it up for the Navy. The San Diego Marines came north and humbled the Trojans at the Shrine, while March Field and Camp Santa Anita also proved victorious A mid-season game with Oxy was won in the Trojan gym, 49-24, SC ' s high total of the year. bob vogcl denxil waldcn BOB VOCEL -Returning to the hard- wood after a three years voluntary re- tirement, Bobbie a marine trainee dis- played much of the court wizardry that had made him leading scorer for the Trobabes. Fast and scrappy, Bob was a sharp floorman. but seemed to have trouble hitting the hoop at forward. The former Illinois flash was the smallest man on the team at 5 ft. 9 in. and 160 lbs. DENZIL WALDEN Afer spending most of the season on the bench. Denzil saw considerable action in the final games against the Bruins. A rapid ballhandler and a good two hand shooter, the ma- rine trainee from San Diego State proved a dependable reserve guard. Denzil toted 170 pounds on a 5 ft. II in. chassis. 185 ickey brophy stabs at a bounding ball, with joe cherry on the floor u. c. 1. a TROJAN DOMINATION of SC UCLA basket- ball came to an unceremonious end during the 1943-44 season, but not until the Bruins had received the scare of their lives. The open- ing game of the four-game competition found the Bruins thumping Troy, 33-19, at Westwood. Bright spots of the worst conference defeat since 1932 were the timely shooting of Bob Howard, who notched 1 1 points, and Captain Dick Bailey, who did a great job of guarding Dick West. Bill Rankin paced the victors with 1 5 points. Proving that they were capable of licking the Westwooders, Troy ' s cagers won the second tilt, played at the Shrine, 48-41. Joe Cherry, Mickey Brophy, and Bob Howard netted 14, 10 and 9 digits, respectively. Troy led 21-19 at halftime. JOE CHERRY — One of the greatest freshman prospects to attend Troy, Joe shared the start- ing honors at center with Bob Martin. Cool and collected, the acrobatic Tucson lad paced the only local victory over the Bruins. Standing 6 ft. 2 in. and weighing 170 lbs., ]oe proved a demon off the backboards. A pre-med and dental student, Joe was conscientious and hard- working. 186 no. they ' re not fighting: jim econ has just blocked a br e r 1 e s EVEN UP at the end of two games, Troy again traveled to the Bruin abode and again was rude- ly welcomed After 40 minutes of nip-and-tuck basketball Bobby Muth ' s boys lost out. 32-30. The Bruins led 16-12 at halftime. but Troy forged ahead. 25-19. with eight minutes of play remaining SC had a free throw with the score tied 30 all and only 80 seconds left in the ball game. But the free throw was missed, and Dick West caged the winning basket in the final 15 seconds. Bob Martin caged 1 1 points for Troy. Playing without Captain Dick Bailey, who was injured, the Cardinal and Cold forces lost the final games of the series, 40-32. It was the first Trojan loss to UCLA in the Shrine and first series loss since 1932. Mickey Brophy, Bob Mar- tin, and Bob Newland were responsible for 22 points among them BOB HOWARD — High scorer for the season with 164 points in a 20 game schedule, tie for high scorer in the Conference with 48 poin ' s in six tilts, and All-Southern Division choice at center, Red Dog was Troy ' s big gun at for- ward Bob, 6 ft. 2 in. and 195 lbs., came to SC via Oregon State and Long Beach J.C. Easy- going, likeable, and cooperative, the freckled casabateer was a handy man to have around. 187 up and at ' em on the rebound are bob newland 6 and joe cherry (10 1 BOB NEWLAND — Most improved player on the squad was the Judge who earned second string Southern Division. Starting the season slowly, he sparked the team in the final tilts of the year. Possessing a fine eye when set. Bob was also potent off the backboards. He did a great job of holding down UCLA ' S Dick West, tie with Howard for the leading scorer in the Conference, until evicted on fouls. Bob stood 6 ft. and weighed 165. He came from Oregon and was a marine trainee. MICKEY BROPHY — After starting the season at forward, Mickey was shifted to guard where he remained the balance of the year. A great man off the back- boards, Mic proved a steady performer. The Oregon Stater was a marine trainee, 6 ft. 2 in. in height and 185 lbs. in weight. Freckled and sheikish . Mickey was quiet and popular. His pet shot was a short left handed push which he used for ten points in the second Bruin game. 188 INABILITY TO HIT the hoop in the final 15 minutes of play cost the Trojans a vital game with the California Golden Bears, ultimate cham- pions of the southern division, in a conference crucial at Berkeley, 26-24. The Trojans were ahead 23-18 and going strong when Bob Howard was ousted on personal fouls and the SC team showed an immediate offensive nosedive, dropping in only one more free throw all evening. The Bears rallied and Wayne Hoop- er, sophomore guard who was in the hair of Cal rivals all year, plunked in the winning basket. Howard was high for the Trojans with seven points. The Trojans scored just as many field goals as the Bears — nine each — but muffed their gift tosses. bob ncwland fakes 3 pot-shot at the basket against the be series WAYNE HOOPER, who had licked the Trojans m the prior Cal-SC game at Berkeley, was red hot in the repeat contest at the Shrine Audi- torium and guided the Bears to a 37-34 win over SC and also to the first perfect season in the southern division since 1929. Hooper plunked 17 points through the net, which was more than the scoring totals of Troy ' s two high men. Bob Howard and Bob Newland, with eight each. Again the final score chart showed each team scoring 1 5 field goals, but the Bears were much sharper at the free throw line. The game was a repetition of the first game at Berkeley in one other particular. The Trojans were ahead by one point at half-time, but Cali- fornia defensive pressure in the second half was too intense. |IM ECON — Fast and tricky, it was the lob of this diminutive southpaw to try and fill the vacancy left by the incom- parable Gene Rock. A deadeye in his own right, Jim proved to be a n in-and- outer. Although 6 ft. tall. |?m weighed rnly 1 50. A naval trainee up from the layvee team, he held a starting berth much of the year. |im ' s forte was a left hand push shot from anywhere on the court. BOB MARTIN — Up from the |ayvee squad, this curly tousled center showed great improvement throughout the sea- son and finished with two terrific show- ings against the Bruins. After develop- ing a sensational double finesse under the basket, Bob had trouble connecting for buckets. Another I 8 year old youth. Bob was 6 ft. 3 in. tall and tipped the beam at 190. 189 SYLVAN COLDINCER — To veteran manager Sul- ly fell the task of picking up basketballs, keeping expense accounts, and generally seeing that hoop aces and coaching staff didn ' t have to do anything but play basketball. Sully proved a shrewd sen- ior manager as he delegated most of his more bur- densome duties to sophomore managers When the season closed, it was declared a success, from the managerial standpoint, at least.

Standout athletes for SC this year were Al Lawrence, flashy freshman high hurdler who set new first-year marks; Roland Sink, tireless mile runner; Earl Audet, national champion in the shot put; Doug Miller, javelin thrower of reputation; Paul lacono, valuable middle-distance runner; Eddie Crosse, speedster who alternated between the sprints and 440 and usually anchored Troy ' s victorious relay teams, and Charlie Page, who became eligible for the discus and other field events late in the season. 192 DESIGNATED CAPTAIN at the start of the season to the complete acceptance of the 1944 Trojan track team was Edsel Curry, veteran of the National Collegiate championship quartet of the preceding season and star broad jumper. Winner of the national junior A.A.U. crown in 1943, Curry is seldom beaten and proves an inspirational leader for the team. Curry bet- tered 24 ft. on several occasions last year and in early meets showed promise of even still greater leaps. The deadline for this El Rodeo section pre- vents a full report of the track season. Later pages carry some reviews of early-season meets. The high spot of the season was the annual dual meet against California at Berkeley, fol- lowed by the California Intercollegiates at the Coliseum. The annual Coliseum Invitational later on was another event for which Trojan champions would point. All three meets were won by SC. Transportation limitations of naval trainees made it impossible for the SC cinder team to defend its National Collegiate track championship, won for the ninth suc- cessive time last year.

Described in later press serv- ice dispatches as least likely to succeed, the 1943 Trojan quartet of Cliff Bourland, Edsel Curry, Doug Miller and Jack Trout scored 46 points in the National Collegiate champion- ships at Evanston. III., to win Troy ' s ninth such title in a row. Here the quartet stands with their coach, left to right: Curry, Bourland, Coach Cromwell, holding title trophy, Miller and Trout. CLIFF BOURLAND — Inspiring a skeleton Tro- jan track team of only four men to one of SC ' s most glorious track victories was Cliff Bourland, captain and 440 star of the 1943 team. Cliff defended his N.C.A.A quarter- mile title and also placed third in the 220 as the Trojan quartet won a ninth consecutive National Collegiate trophy with a 46-point total. During his three years of competition at SC Bourland scored 46 points in N.C.A.A meets in the 100, 220 and 440 dashes. Last year he tied the U.S. record for 300 yards and also bettered all listed marks for 500 yards. He is now in Uncle Sam ' s navy. 194 A VALUABLE THIRD PLACE in the javelin throw was earned by Doug Miller in the Na- tional Collegiates to further Troy ' s point total Steadily improving under the adequate coach- ing of Dean Cromwell, Miller became one of Troy ' s most dependable spear tossers. A trans- fer from Santa Monica Junior College, Miller is a marine trainee. He earned a runner-up medal in the national junior A.A.U. meet. It was in this meet that a Tropin quartet of Cur- ry, Trout, Doug Miller and Bruce Miller I no relation scored 50 points to win the meet. The boys didn ' t even know they were team champions til they read the papers that night SHOWINC STEADY IMPROVEMENT from week to week until he could regularly be ex- pected to surpass 24 ft. in every meet, Edsel Curry was a valuable member of the Trojan quartet who surprised everyone excepting themselves in the ' 43 NCAA champion- ships at Evanston, III Curry placed second in the broad jump and for a while was leading the event until the final rounds. The follow- ing week Curry won the national junior A A U broad jump and placed third in the hop-step- jump as the Trojans attained another start- ling triumph A product of Clendale High Curry is in the Navy V-12 training program. OVERCOMING TRAINING OBSTACLES which would have discouraged many another sprinter. )ack Trout climaxed his 1943 cam- paign by winning two second places in the NCAA meet, beaten only by the flying Hal Davis of California Trout ' s showing in the big meet surprised many a local fan who had seen him beaten by some inferior men in early races, but he substantiated the confidence which Coach Cromwell had in him when he tallied 16 valuable points in the meet. Enlist- ed in the marines. Trout left the Trojan cam- pus in mid-October for training at Parris Isl- and. South Carolina. 195 track NUMEROUS COLD MEDALS were won by Trojan tracksters in the Southern Pacific Association A.A.U. title meet in the Coli- seum on April 22. The Trojans won the meet with an unofficial point total of 48 3 4. Al Lawrence won both hurdle races in 14.8s. and 24s. flat. Roland Sink took the mile in 4m. 21.5s. Paul lacono was an easy winner in the 440 at 49.7s. Earl Audet defended his shot put crown with a winning mark of 51 ft. 1 in Bill Larson made the best vault of his life, 13 ft., to tie for the medal in the bamboo climb. The four-man 440 relay team of Skiles Hoffman, Cordon Cray, Edsel Curry and Eddie Grosse won in 43s. flat while the mile relay team of Joe Barry, Tom Tackett, lacono and Crosse was timed in 3m. 21.7s Other places were Crosse ' s fourth in the 100, Hoffman ' s third in the 220, Bob Morris ' s third in the low hurdles, Doug Miller ' s second in the javelin, Curry ' s fourth in the broad jump and third in the hop- step-jump. George Crum and Oscar Samuelson, although un- placed, each cleared 6 ft. in the high jump. An early season dual meet saw the Trojans edge out Caltech, 74-57. High spot of the meet was Al Lawrence ' s 23.8s. low hurdles race, which set a new Trojan freshman mark. Eddie Grosse won the sprints in 10 flat and 21.9s. Walt Ralls took the discus at 140 ft paul iacono georgc crum dous; miller bill larson eddie grossc TWO NEW FRESHMAN TRACK STARS, participating in their initial meet for the Trojan varsity, produced record perform- ances in the season-opening Occidental handicap meet Al Lawrence, speedy hurdler from Clendale, rambled over the high barriers in 14.7s. to tie the meet record of John Biewener. Roland Sink, diminutive miler from South Pasadena, broke the meet record when he negotiated the four laps in 4m. 22.6s. An- other new meet record was achieved by Earl Audet when he pushed the shot 51 ft. ' 4 in. Peculiarly enough, although he had set a new record. Earl didn ' t score a point because of the substantial handicaps awarded his opponents Paul lacono tied the meet mark in the 880 when timed in 1 m. 55 9s. for his third place. Eddie Crosse won the 220 in 22.5s., but lost the 100 to Skiles Hoffman who was awarded a slight handicap. The score of the meet, incidentally, was 72-50 in Troy ' s favor. The next week on the Oxy track the Trojans competed in the Southern California College Relays, winning the four-man 880 and taking second in the distance medley to Caltech, benefitting by a 30- second handicap. Edsel Curry and Skiles Hoffman each bettered 22 ft. in the broad |ump, while Bill Larson cleared 1 2 ft. 6 in in the pole vault. No scoring was kept. joe barry Fi . PAT LAPLANTE — One of the toughest man- agerial jobs is that of track manager. What with track meets almost without exception away from home, Pat was kept on his toes all the time One of the toughest jobs on these away from home meets is the handling of the financial report. Expenditures, regardless of their nature, have to be recorded and submit- ted in a report to the graduate manager. An- other NROTC manager, Pat kept up the high standard of track aide-de-camps. He was real- ly relieved when the season came to an end and he could take it easy.

Rod, a graduate of Troy in 1935 and a former pro, knows the game inside and out. Add to this great knowledge of baseball an ability to make friends out of everyone he meets and you have the formula for a topnotch base- ball coach. Rod came to SC from Hollywood high, where he was a great infield- er. Continuing to add to his horsehide prominence, Rod was a three-year varsity letterman in baseball, and captained the CIBA co-champions from his shortstop position in his senior year. When the 1944 season opened it looked possible for the locals to come up with a championship team, despite the fact that there were only two returning lettermen. But as the season went on ineligibilities and in- juries dealt the team a death blow. Undaunted by the losses suffered, the Trojan mentor guided his lads to second place in the southland college league, losing only twice, and those losses to the championship Bruins. Rod is a coach who really shows that ol ' jinniger. 200 AL SPAETER, who left for midshipman ' s school before the season opened had been elected captain for the 1944 horsehide sea- son, but when Al left the title of honorary captain was generally bestowed on Don Palm- er, veteran catcher. Don was plagued all sea- son by injuries but still was acclaimed by Coach Rod Dedeaux and fans alike as the best catcher in Trojan history. Don was voted all- C.I.B.A. catcher even though he appeared in less than half of the league contests.

V! ' .- don palmer dark higgins ken mc creighr COMPETITION IN THE SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA Intercolleg- iate Baseball League narrowed down to three teams after the first three weeks of the season, namely, Redlands, UCLA, and SC With prospects bright for a Trojan championship, a series of injuries and ineligibilities stole the title right out of the locals hands. In the first round of a double round robin the Dedeaux- men lost to the league champion Bruins. The Trojans maintained winning ways until they again faced the Bruins in a champion- ship tilt at UCLA. Don Palmer, sparkplug of the team and the greatest catcher in Trojan history (according to Dedeaux) was put on the injury list for the second time during the season. Glenn Danielson, sparkling center fielder, was declared ineligible, and to top it off second baseman Bobby Jones was sent to the hospital with the flu. Add all these unlucky breaks up and it spells defeat for the league championship. Nevertheless, Troy came up with the league ' s leading pitcher in Charlie Noah, who twirled four victories against no defeats, and Bob Santee earned the runner-up spot in the batting competition with an average of .486, while Art Murphy was fifth with an average of .390. The Trojans were also the only team that could pin a twin loss on the Redlands Bulldogs. jim brady and don hardy ' •iw don pair AT THE END OF FOUR TILTS the Trojans rested atop the heap, if three teams can be called a heap, in California Intercollegiate Baseball Association competition. But when the final reckoning was made the locals had dropped to second spot by virtue of dropping a twin bill to UCLA and splitting a double-header with the Bears. Interestingly enough, when the Bruins and Trojans met in two twin billings, the first game counted in two leagues and thus provided an added incentive to cop the opening con- test. High point of the Trojans ' play in the CIBA was a double victory over the Bears at Cilmore Field, although most of the players rated the trip to Cal high on the list. In practice tilts the Trojans had considerable trouble taking the service teams into camp. A victory over the Los Angeles Angels featured these practice tilts After dropping an early practice contest to March Field, the locals played a return game with the Flyers and defeated them. 5-3. behind the sparkling three hit pitching of fireball Hal Saltzman Looking behind the scenes, we came up with the following tidbits .

After serving as aide to Russ Bur- kett during football season, Chuck was well- qualified to take over the reins of the horse- hiders. One of the shrewdest moves of Mac- Kenzie was the enlistment of neighborhood youngsters to chase foul balls and generally do the work he would otherwise have had to do. With all the running necessary. Chuck kept in great condition for his gymnastics activities. CALIFORNIA INTERCOLLEGIATE BASEBALL ASSOCIATION TOP BATTERS FINAL STANDINGS Team W L PCT.

The Trojan mentor takes great pride in his net- ters, not only those who are constantly making the headlines, but also in the B squad members. Con- tinuing Trojan tradition, the 1944 team won the Cali- fornia Intercollegiate team championship as well as copping singles and doubles titles. BOB KIMBRELL — Ace and captain of the 1944 team, Bob was a winning leader. The blonde tennis master copped the Southern California intercollegiate singles crown and then teamed with Fred Moy to capture the doubles title. Bob provided the spark for the first SC win from UCLA as he defeated Vince Fotre in singles and then came back with John Shea as his partner to win the final and deciding doubles match from Fotre and Rod Sackett UNDEFEATED in intercollegiate competition for the second straight year is the record of the Trojan ten- nis team. Under the careful guidance of Arnold Eddy the local netters, although not outclassing all their foes, showed an ability to come through in the pinches when the chips were down. Particularly gratify- ing was a double win over the strong UCLA team. In the first match Troy was forced to come from be- hind in the doubles matches to nose out the Bruins 5-4, With the entire match resting on the first doubles contest, Bob Kimbrell blasted an ace off Vincent Fotre ' s serve, when the Bruins had set and match point, to start an uphill battle which netted the Trojans a hard earned victory. In the second match with the Westwooders the issue was never in doubt. Playing on local courts SC scored a decisive 7-2 win over the Bruins Kimbrell again paced the locals as he walloped Fotre in the singles feature, 10-8, 14-12. Against Caltech the Eddymen scored a pair of triumphs, 8-1 and 6-3. Kimbrell met his nemesis in Stan Clark who both times defeated Troy ' s ace. In non-league matches the locals hit their peak as they volleyed their way right through the defense of College of Pacific and California by identical scores of 7-2. Displaying fine secondary strength the Bee team split with the Bruins in their two matches Individually the Trojans did right well. Kimbrell won the Southern California Intercollegiate singles title by defeating Fotre and then teamed with Fred Moy to vanquish Fotre and Rod Sackett in doubles to nab the doubles title also. 1944 was a winning season for the Trojan tennismen 1 206 MARVIN LEVAND Honor for managing Troy ' s winningest spring team fell to another member of the NROTC, portly Marv. Although he had rela- tively little to do during the week, weekends saw Marv running frantically between the local tennis courts and those in Exposition Park. Matches be- tween varsity squads and Bee teams kept Marv, also a member of the Trojan writing corps, occupied.

FROM THE OPENINC PLAY of the season when Karl Tashjian gathered in the Yuma air base kickoff, and raced 85 yards for a touchdown the Trojan jayvee grid year was a success As the first SC jayvee team ever to play a regulation schedule, Coach Glen Galvin ' s pigskin aggregation displayed fine spirit and a winning punch as they swept to five straight victories. The boys scored successive wins over Yuma air base, 41-0; Redlands, 19-0; Ft. MacArthur, 20-6; Pomona Ordnance, 33-0; and Compton, 21-0. With such speedy and hard-hitting backs as Jerry Shipkey, Milford Dreblow, Ed Whitfield, Travis Manning, Ernie Wilson, Russ Antles, and Ray McFadden the jayvees had a great running attack. Gaines Mors and Tashjian, oper- ating from the quarterback spot in the T-formation, were tops in the aerial department. In Bob Webb, high scorer for the season, Galvin had a terrific pass-catching end. McFadden and Mors handled the punt- ing. Larry Stoeven, rated the best defensive end, while Joe Stall and Tom Hennes were two mighty fine, lanky tackles. Bud Curtis and Dave Lavelle, pounding guards, gave the center of the line plenty of bulk. Bob Fortney was a really great jayvee center All in a ' l. they were a smooth, well-functioning Trojan eleven. up for a high one 210 back row: art kaplan ' mj bob graham jack morlcy frank matcljan bob tindlcy shclby calhoun front row: warren miller ron pupkc bob refill ed laughrcn cyril yates ALTHOUCH SHELBY CALHOUN found it pretty difficult keeping his team intact, he nevertheless was able to find a combination that could trim the Bruins three out of four times, and the Bruins had a good club One of the big assets o f the jayvees was their height. Jack Morley, elongated center; Ron Pupke, tall for- ward; Warren Miller, aggressive, high-scoring guard; Bob Graham, steadiest man on the club at guard; and relatively small Cyril Yates, forward, were the starting combine. Off and on during the season the jayvees moved up to the varsity. Again entering local AAU competition, the jayvees took a back seat to more ex- perienced quintets At the year ' s end, the boys could credit their three wins, against one loss, to UCLA, as their high spot. UNDER THE TUTELACE of Shelby Calhoun and Chief Andy Anderson, Troy ' s Ceegees completed their ab- breviated season with the loss of only one game. The lone defeat was at the hands of the Bruins, but the locals still were tops, laying claim to three victories. Among those who saw considerable service for the lightweights were sparkplug Mortie Smith, diminutive forward; Milt Freeman, offensive ace at forward; Cordon Cray, who belatedly took over the duties of center; jim Callanan. steady guard; Bob Ritzil. gen- eral duty man; Tony Nizetich. improving guard; Frank )ones. lanky replacement for Cray; and Ray Page, speedy sub forward.

Although the turnout was below that of pre- vious years. Coach Fred Cady moulded an All California championship squad. Ace of the team was a great freshman. Rube Wolf, national junior AAU champion Wolf not only was undefeated in his pet event, the backstroke, but he also proved to be the iron man of the team. SC opened against the Bruins and won a hard-earned victory. 43-31, by winning the relay. Wolf, swimming three of the last four events, copped the 440 free style and the 1 50 backstroke, and then topped it off by swimming the anchor lap on the relay team. Captain Bill Hanson, lone returning letterman, easily garnered first place honors in diving. Don Hughes and Bob Brown, who had crawled out of bed from a case of flu just to compete, also were event winners. Henry Krisel bolstered the Trojan point total in the sprints and relay. When Troy met the nata- tors from out Westwood way in a return meet, the locals, suffering losses from sickness, went down to de- feat, 41-34. Again Wolf proved to be the big star of the engagement, but his winning efforts were not enough to put the SC swimmers over the top. An All Southern California meet had been scheduled, but UCLA, which was the only other collegiate team in the Southland when the Occidental Tigers pulled up their stakes because of a lack of manpower, conceded the title to the charges of Coach Cady becau se the Bruins could not muster enough swimmers to make a representative showing. Duties of manager fell to Jack Shad, who also took an occasional turn in the water, swimming the 220 free style. captain bill hanson coach frcd cady 213 AS THE SEASON got under way, Trojan golf was hard hit by the fac- ulty ax and the war, but neverthe- less appeared to be a definite pow- er in links competition. After Bud Rudolph, the only returning letter- man, was declared ineligible, Ar- nold Eddy, who handled the coach- ing reins, was forced to mould an entirely new team. Lee Thompson took over the number one spot, fol- lowed by Al McMahon, Warren Hubert, Jack Vivian, Wally Dale, and Homer Sherwood. But as the season rolled on the ranks were thinned and Dick Van Cleve, How- ard McClain, and Warren Steinberg began to see action. The opening match against the Bruins on their links resulted in a 14-10 setback. Later matches were dropped to Cal- tech and UCLA.

FACED WITH THE TASK of finding some means of physical outlet for trainees, the campus naval author- ities sponsored an intramural program with such activities as swimming, basketball, volley ball, and a track meet holding sway. Intramural director was Ensign Bob Olden. Newkirk Hall started the program with a win in the swimming meet as the lads totaled 53 points, far outdistancing Henderson which nabbed sec- ond with only 25 digits. Many of the men, such as Jack Shad, Henry Krisel, and Al Griffin, were later to form the nucleus of the swimming team. In basketball it was pretty much a story of the marines take all Williams Hall entered three teams ( there were forty entered altogether) and had three league champions. There were three marine teams in the semi-finals and when the tournament champion was announced it was PI. 2 Company B of Williams that could claim the title honors, by virtue of a 48-21 win over Newkirk in the finals held at the Shrine Auditorium, a preliminary tilt to the varsity fray with St Mary ' s Prcflight Norvin Spence, Dunk Nesbitt, and Warren Steinberg paced the titular march In an all-navy track meet the NROTC roared to victory, piling up 53 points. Newkirk was second with 40 and Henderson third by virtue of their 35 points At press time there were three teams tied for the championship in volley ball, one marine sextet, one NROTC. and one naval club.

Dick Johnson was leading the fraternity as president when war struck the S.C. campus. So many of the members were lost to the army and navy that it was decided to give up the house of twenty-ninth and Ellendale and only maintain a meeting room. In October of last year, the chapter voted to become inactive for the duration but to maintain the meeting room at 3311 Hoover Street. However, in July of this year, it was thought not too detrimental to the house so it was voted to again become active and to rush. With many plans for after the war, Sigma Phi Delta is looking forward to the time when the life of the Creeks will return and fraternal ac- tivities will reign supreme. dick Johnson paul lapine, mike bealessio, jack cortrighr, murr gilkcson Joseph heidemann. william heeb, richard kersey, tester klingerman paul iacono. kenneth macleod, william parr, donald wanee SIGMA PHI EPSILON ilC EP made a bid for campus prominence in many ields Its own winter term prexy.

The Student Chapter at SC is open to all undergraduate students majoring in Civil Engineering except fresh- men The society attempts to acquaint itself with the newest developments in the field of engineering by holding meetings at which outstanding speakers in that sphere are heard and conducting frequent field trips It is possible for alumni to continue active participation in the group through be- coming affiliated with the National Society of Civil Engineers after graduation. 281 American Institute of Chemical Engineers f. burroughs c. conlin f. crowhursr r. daigh r. dicrks g. fischer j. gierlings m. gilkeson r. jonas r. kersey o. hernandcz j. miller a. pasquera r. reynolds a. schaefer WHAT IS A Chemical Engineer? Some say a mechanical Engineer gone astray. Actually a chemical Engineer is a man skilled in the fundamentals of chemistry as well as the technology of Engineering. The two basic functions of the student chapter of the American Institute of Chemical Engineering at SC are first to keep the members informed of new developments in the field of Chemical Engineer- ing and second, to provide for the men the current light of the profession. The former is accomplished through conducted tours through local chemical plants and lectures by various chemical experts in industry. 282 American Society of Mechanical Engineers OVER TWENTY-ONE thousand practicing and aspirant mechanical engineers are included as members of American Society of Mechanical Engineers, one of the four official national professional engineering organizations in the United States. The society was founded as a medium through which the mechanical engineers of the nations could communicate and discuss information important to their mutual profession The University branch of AS. ME. is open to all students seriously intending me- chanical engineering as a career. At the regular meetings the members discuss problems and hear lectures peculiar to their profession and visit the Engineering Departments of various Los Angeles industrial plants. s. alien f. benson c. carper g. cimolino j. coriright n. glennon w. hceb g. hcrnandcx a. hocrl r. justice c. laughrcn k. maclcod s. marosi h. m.isser a. milburn s. moody j. n.ish r. morron w. rands n shade c. snydcr g. wilson r. wong c. yantiss j. young L o 283 American Pharmaceutical Association f. bates v. bates h. bennet h. beronio r. blickenstaff r. blum m. bromfeld p. borovich ! burnham r. chew r. claud m. cole k. dawson c. dorfmeier m. egchart j. forror j. hardy i. hause b.

This organization remains the symbol of the ideals of honor, ethics, and research which have inspired modern pharmacy to its respected position in the scientific world. 284 Antidotes IN THE FALL OF 1936. Clarice Wood. Rose Ratner. and Audrey Kallick. found- ed the Antidotes, an organization open to all women in the school of Pharmacy. Each member of this group is named for a poison for which she must know the remedy, and it is from this unique and charming rule that the name Antidotes is derived. This year, under the faculty supervision of Miss Margaret Airston and the student direction of Marguerite Cole, the Antidotes sponsored the Pharmacy Alumni Banquet as well as many lesser social functions, and continued as one of the most active professional bodies on the USC campus Membership in this or- ganization affords to sincere pharmaceutical students a valuable wealth of future business contacts and an opportunity to become more closely acquainted with their professional associates. f. barnum v. bates h. h. rnii. r. blickensfaff r. chew m. cole m. n. ctchart i. h.iu-.. b.

In order to win the gold gavel which is a symbol of being an active member, the pledges have written poems, short stories, criticisms, and essays. They have also been given the opportunity to criticise the literary efforts of the active members. This year emphasis has been placed on round table criticism of literary works by members of Athena and authors outside of the group. 286 Alpha Tau Epsilon r. andrews j. bovec s. breitm.in w. brown t. drilling f. milford t. fields j.

Under the influence of Dean Francis Bacon, this organization strives to hold true to the Grecian moral and educational ideals, emphasizing the values of healthful living and mental cultivation. Phi Eta Sigma stands for the Grecian phrase philoi hebedon sophias. which in its translated form: lovers of wisdom, young and old alike, embodies the es- sence and the spirit of the society which it represents 307 Phi Sigma Society j. aiken e. finch r. bennet e. miller d. morris r. moskowitz I. ritchic r. schaefer p. silva d. smith c. stratton j. veitch e. webster WITH THE COMING of the war Phi Sigma, National Honorary Biological So- ciety, geared its programs to a practical, help win the war, course. Such topics as Fortification of Foods, Aviation Medicine, and Keeping Mentally Sane. in an Insane World were discussed by prominent speakers and authorities in bio- logical fields. Many members of the society were engaged during the year in war research. Membership in Phi Sigma is restricted to active, alumni, faculty, and honorary members. Those who wear the gold badge of Sigma must have a good moral char- acter, be a student enrolled in the University who has shown research promise, and has received at least two years of college credit with a high scholastic aver- age, one-fourth of which must be in biological science. 308 PHI LAMBDA UPSILON dicrks tischcr schjcftcr PIONEERS IN THE FIELD of honor societies. Phi Lambda Upsilon has played an important role in the development of American Chemistry in the past forty years. The aims ?nd purposes of the society were from its inception the pro- motion of high scholars hip and original investigation in all branches of pure and applied chemistry. There are in the organization three classes of members: ac- tive, associate, and honorary. Active members are chosen from those men of the Junior and Senior class majoring in chemistry and doing exceptional work As- sociate membership is limited to faculty members and persons making note- worthy contributions to that field. Men of national reputation in chemistry are taken in as Honorary members. The increasing usefulness of the society, par- ticularly now in the time of war, indicates the merit of Phi Lambda Upsilon.

The Eta chapter, organized on campus in 1921, pledges women with a high scho- lastic majoring in speech It is the policy of the fraternity to balance the mem- bership among women in the various speech arts. Zeta members assist the faculty of the school of speech whenever their services are needed. This entails ushering for drama activities, helping with the techni- cal duties of staging and serving at the social functions of the department.
