PRESIDENT ' S MESSAGE To THE Class of 1945: Yours has been the privilege of attending college and carrying your college education through to completion while your country has been engaged in the most terrible war of his- tory. Realization of the great privilege that has been yours should bring with it realization of the equally great responsibility which rests upon you to serve your country with the talents you have been permitted to develop here in war time. Only by going forth to take your place in the country ' s war effort and later to do your part in promoting and supporting a sound peace pro- gram, can you justify your country ' s faith that higher education in war time is in the best inter- est of our democratic society. I am sure that you will live up to this responsi- bility, that your service to the nation will be greater and more intelligently directed because of your development during the past four years. In your last two years you have shared the campus with Army Air Force cadets and trainees. I am glad to say that your conduct and accom- plishments have created a desire on the part of many of these cadets to return to college when their army service is completed, just as in turn the cadets have inspired many of you through their seriousness of purpose and through the dedication of their lives to the service of the nation. You have shown splendid cooperation in the many adjustments the college has had to make in housing, in the boarding hall, in the class- rooms, and in extracurricular activities. You have not had all the comforts and act ivities of peace time, but you have had the opportunity to develop something that you will value more in the years to come, a sense of responsibility to serve your community, your state, and your nation. My best wishes go with you. Hugh P. Baker 1944-1945 As the opening event of the year, a Pops Concert was sponsored by the Collegian. The production, given in Bowker Auditorium on October 14th, was reminiscent of our former show, Campus Varieties. Those featured on the program were Doric Alviani, John Delevoryas, and Mr. Richard MacMee- kin, assistant dean of Amherst College and amateur magician. Dr. Maxwell H. Gold- berg acted as master of ceremonies. Re- freshments were on sale during inter- missions and were served to a few faculty members and housemothers who were seated on the ramps. On October 17th, the first Social Union Program featured Conrad Thibault, much to the delight of the student body. Since this was election year and of vital concern to everyone, the campus arrived at Bowker Auditorium en masse on October 25th, to take part in a political forum sponsored by the United Religious Council. Former Congressman Joseph A. Casey of Clinton spoke for President Roosevelt, and D. J. St. Ger- main, president of the Republican Club, of Massachusetts, spoke in behalf of Thomas E. Dewey. Dr. Philip Gamble was chairman of the forum. Following the rebuttal, a straw vote was taken in which the Republican presidential nominee. Gov. Dewey topped President Roosevelt by a margin of forty votes. The guest artist for the second Social Union, in November, was Robert Frost in a discussion of modern poetry in which he cited examples from his own collection of poetry. On Saturday evening, November 25th, the Physical Education Department spon- sored Miss Carmen Rooker, dance direc- tor at Bennett Junior College, accompan- ied by Miss Irene Wisecup, in a modern dance recital. The Massachusetts State College Wo- men ' s Glee Club made its first appear- ance of the year on campus on November 20th. A short concert was given in the Old Chapel Auditorium. The Christmas season was opened here at M.S.C. with the Glee Club presenta- tion of Hansel and Gretel. Betty Bates and Connie Rothery sang the leading roles. It was announced on December 6th that a new subject — Fine Arts — had been added to the list of majors. Through the cooperation of the ROTC and the ASTRP, a traditional military ball was held in the Drill Hall on Decem- ber 16th. Marion McCarthy was selected as Honorary Colonel. Included in the week-end program was Deare st Abi- gail, a Roister Doister production based upon the Abbey ' s twenty-five years of existence. The Social Union Program on January 12th featured Miriam Marmein, a mimic and dancer. Winter Carnival Weekend took place February ninth and tenth. It included 11 skating, an informal dance, and the judging of the snow sculptures, Friday night; skiing and the Naiads ' water ballet, Saturday afternoon; and the ball, Saturday night, at which Dorothy Hur- lock ' 46 was selected as Carnival Queen. The winning snow sculpture was Pi Beta Phi ' s Skitrooper. This year, the Quadrangle, the non- sorority girls ' club, has been dissolved, and all non-sorority and non-fraternity students have formed a new group, to be known as the Independents. This has been done to provide representation for about 200 students, who otherwise would not have a representative voice on campus. The Poetry Reading Club has been revived and reorganized. This group is the spiritual descendant of a small group of poetry lovers who held their first meetings in the Fall of 1942. The Club has resumed activity under the influence of Miss Horrigan, Dr. O ' Donnell, and Miss McNamara. The annual Glee Club Concert, given as a Social Union program, was presented on Friday, February 16th. The Statettes and the reorganized Statesmen were featured . The following week-end, the Roister Doisters sponsored the revival of the Interclass Play Competition. In this the freshman class took the honors for their presentation of New School for Wives, directed by Maija Honkonen. The mem- bers of the cast were presented individual copies of Thirty Famous One-Act Plays ; the award was made by Professor Rand. Under the leadership of Doric Alvi- ani, the foundation for a new tradition on campus has been laid. The Concert Series. It is hoped that, in time, interest will demand an increase in the number and the variety of programs. On November 29th, Donald Dickson, well-known baritone soloist, presented the first concert in the series. Percy Grainger, piano virtuoso and composer, was the guest artist for the second program on February 14th. The third concert, on April 10th, featured Anne Brown, known to most people as the original star of George Gershwin ' s classic opera Porgy and Bess. Miss Brown is well remembered by the juniors and seniors for her perform- ance at a Social Union Program two years ago. It should not be necessary to add that her concert was well appre- ciated. During the course of the year plans were made for the revival of Fraternity Chapters. There are at present eleven fraternity men on campus, who represent only four of the houses. The Dramatic Workshop, this year, presented two plays as part of the Fine Arts Series. The first, on January 4th, entitled Be Sure Your Sex Will Find You Out, was a satire about women and the crushes they often develop for certain movie actors. The second, Num- ber 10, was given on January 18th. This was a romantic incident in a hospital. The Dramatic Workshop, English 89, is a scheduled course in which students learn directing, casting, costuming, make- up work, and set designing. The plays are presented as a class exercise. 12 58 ' CTD MSC Beavers and Chipmunks Early in the course of the war, Presi- dent Baker offered the services of Massa- chusetts State College to the War De- partment in whatever way these services might be utilized, and, particularly, for the training of members of the military forces. In January, 1943, there came a telegram to the College from the Director of Individual Training Headquarters, Army Air Forces, Washington, D. C, asking for a report by wire as to facilities for housing and training air force cadets in a program soon to be undertaken. A detailed report was dispatched in- dicating that the College could accom- modate 750 cadets in a training program. On February 19, 1943, the Army Air Forces indicated that Trainees would be sent to the College, and the first con- tingent of these men, called Aviation Students (A S) arrived on February 28th. From then through May, 1944, when this type of training program was discon- tinued, nearly 2400 young enlisted men and non-commissioned officers in the Army Air Forces received training at Massachusetts State preparatory to their pre-flight course at army fields. Major General T. J. Hanley, Jr., com- manding general of the Army Air Forces Eastern Flying Training Command, stated the purpose of the College Training Detachments as follows: To bridge the gap, the ever-increasing gap, between the presently low and simple requirements to enter the air corps and the high and complicated demands upon the student when he is in. The training program for the 58th College Training Detachment at Massachusetts State consisted of four parts: 1) ten hours of dual control flying at the Westfield Airport, 2) courses in military discipline which were handled by the 58th headquarters staff ' (Captain Dewey W. Couri and Captain Richard J. Congleton were successively commanding officers), 3) physical training, 4) academic courses. The academic course was twenty-one weeks in length; it was organized in such a way that a group, or Squadron, of A S was graduated each month — when another group would arrive to take the place of those who had shipped out. The curriculum was so organized and directed that each course applied very definitely to helping a man operate an airplane intelligently. Physics was taught with relation to forces which act on a plane in flight. Geography dealt with the use of maps, with time belts, meteorol- ogy and climate. History was confined to such topics as form the background for the present war. English was directed toward the improve- ment of speed and comprehension in reading and toward the development of precision and facility of expression in writing and in speech. Mathematics was taught on the basis that operating an airplane represents one mathematical calculation after another. The physical training program included conditioning activities — cross country. 15 wind-sprints, grass drills, obstacle course running, swimming and first aid. Nearly 100 members of the faculty de- voted a great portion of their time to the teaching of courses for the 58th. In addi- tion, the A S were provided with the complete facilities in Draper Hall for their mess. The boys were housed in Lewis and Thatcher Halls and in Abigail Adams House, all of which had double decker beds installed by the Army. All of the facilities of the college in- firmary were turned over to the 58th, and the Phi Sigma Kappa house was con- verted into a temporary infirmary for the civilian students. Memorial Hall served as the 58th headquarters. During the course of the program the following statement was transmitted to the college staft ' : The Trustees of Massa- chusetts State College wish to express their appreciation to all members of the college staft ' for the splendid response which they have made to the challenge of the war. President Baker has reported to the Board the fine spirit in which in- structors have taken up new assignments in connection with the Army Air Force Training Program and how other mem- bers of the college staft ' have offered to assist regular instructors. We are con- vinced that through the efforts of all staff members Massachusetts State College is playing a vital and effective role in World War II. Captain Congleton ex- pressed himself in a similar vein in many talks which he gave before service clubs up and down the Connecticut Valley. He said, The citizens of this Commonwealth may well be proud and should be proud of the part which Massachusetts State College is playing in the war training program. The educational and military back- ground of students in the air corps pro- gram, as exemplified by the 58th, was varied. There were college graduates, college students, boys with high school diplomas, and those who had not com- pleted high school, enrolled in the groups on campus. There were men with no previous military experience, some who had ROTC training, and some old soldiers who had been all of two or three years in the service, both in the United States and overseas. One A S at the College was a transfer from the Navy. This man had been aboard the West Virginia when that ship was sunk at Pearl Harbor. He got ashore. He was aboard the carrier Lexington when that ship was sunk. He got ashore. Right at that point he decided he should learn how to drop the bombs himself, rather than, simply, have bombs dropped 16 on him. He joined the Army Air Corps. Another old soldier had been a non-commissioned officer assigned to the crew of a bomber. One day, while the crew was putting in operational flight time, this man and other non-coms aboard the plane took themselves down into the empty bomb bay for a little game of dice, while the student pilot and navigator circled the ship, some two or three miles up, putting in required flying time. At length the plane was turned toward the home field, and ten miles away the eager pilot pulled the lever to drop the landing gear. He pulled the wrong lever, however, — it was the lever which opened the bomb bay door. Out tumbled the gamesters, their dice and their money. Fortunately, the men were equipped with parachutes, which they opened, and with which they made a safe landing. One became a stu- dent pilot with the 58th. He planned to be extra careful when, as a pilot, he should operate landing gear. The 58th published a weekly news- paper called Take Off. It was the first College Training Detachment paper in the United States. An article in Take Off on November 12, 1943, was this: For better or for worse, our time has come to leave the 58th. Other squadrons have done this and Squadron A must follow suit. It is the Army ' s relentless order. The thoughts upon leaving here are conflicting. Some are glad to be on the move, to see new country and people and experiences. Some are unconcerned, un- mindful ; and some there are who are truly sad. For these perhaps there is more than just a chance acquaintance; maybe some warm friends, a wife, a girl. They will watch the fading Amherst with thoughtful eyes. But no matter what the personal feelings, each knows there will never be another post which can parallel this. It will not soon be forgotten. There has been much that consti- tuted the swift and happy days here. The various classes; P.T. on the cool green turf; delightful swimming; the never- ending cross country run; retreats in the quietness of early evening; the welcome bunk at night; the unwelcome ' every- body up. ' Then came the flying period. At first, the unfavorable reaction to the ' Wild Blue Yonder ' ; but then we became accustomed to the air and liked it. The prevalent application of ' Hot Pilot ' and ' Tail Gunner. ' Well, these all formed a part of the program, and more, much more. Our course ahead we know is long, difficult and uncertain. In the utmost sense of the word we must become men. There is that day when the wings will 17] flash on proud chests: is not the goal worthy of our untiring effort? Thus, we leave Massachusetts State knowing that our training here will make the days ahead not especially easier, but touched with confidence. To the officers and teachers we pay our respect and gratitude. They have administered to our benefit. To the grand 58th itself: ' Should Old Acquaintance Be Forgot. ' And so we go. In July, 1944, shortly after the 58th College Training Detachment had been closed, 300 young men 17 years of age, an Air Corps Enlisted Reserve group, were assigned to the College in an Army Specialized Training Reserve Program. This unit was in command of Captain Winslow E. Ryan ' 40. Their training program was much similar to that of the 58th. An article in the Providence, Rhode Island, Journal spoke of it in part as follows : The platoons swinging hungrily across the campus in the general direction of the college cafeteria and a heaping noon- day chow, were made up of boys who will some day be pilots, navigators, gunners and what-not in the Army Air Forces. Right at the moment they are in a pe- culiar betwixt-and-between state: of the Army but not in it, wearing government issue but drawing no pay, eating the Government ' s food but doing it on ration points, living with each other under discipline but not subject to military law, unable to frank their letters but paying no money for tuition or textbooks. In short, they are a combination of Joe College and rookie-boys of pre-military age receiving intensive academic prepara- tion fitting them for training in skills requiring more than a high school educa- tion. Alphabetically, they are members of the ACER — Air Corps Enlisted Reserve. Before the porticoed sweep of college buildings, the platoons dissolved and be- came individual boys, dropping their books by the musette-bagful on sunny lawns or snow-covered steps and relaxing in violent horseplay. ' It ' s the only chance they get to relax during the day, ' remarked Captain Ryan as we strolled across a campus dotted with groups of youngsters somersaulting each other in four-back flips or flinging a friend into the air. Including physical and military training, each student works a 51 to 54-hour week, depending on the curriculum and the term to which he is assigned. Broken down, this week runs to 12 to 20 hours in the classroom, from 4 to 13 hours a week in the laboratory, and from 16 to 19 hours a week in re- quired study. From 6:00 a.m. First Call to 10:30 p.m. Taps it makes for a good full academic day, especially when you sandwich in six hours a week of physical training and five hours of military train- ing. Students who complete the program, without being dropped for academic failure or misconduct go to Army Air Force Training Centers for classification. Because of his introduction to military duties and habits of living the ASTRP graduate has an appreciable edge on other enlisted men during his basic training period. [18] ACER MSC Commencement Senior Commencement weekend was held this year from Friday, May twenty- fifth, to Sunday, May twenty-seventh. Friday at eight in the evening the senior class party was held, along with an alumni reception at the Memorial Hall. In normal times, the Soph-Senior Ball was held on this Friday before commence- ment, thereby allowing students to re- main on campus from Friday until Sun- day commencement. On Saturday, May twenty-sixth, the annual meeting of associate Alumni took place in the Memorial Building at ten o ' clock in the morning. At eleven, there was a meeting of the Board of Trustees in the President ' s office. At this time, the traditional Class Day speeches were given in Bowker Auditorium. Joseph Kunces, class president, delivered the Mantle Oration. He advised the class of ' 46 to uphold the traditions of the college and to keep its history unblemished. Roger Richards, junior class president, accepted the mantle and the responsi- bility associated with it. A response to the speech followed the acceptance of the mantle. The highlight of the program was the Hatchet and Pipe Oration de- livered by Rube Allen and Lucille Chaput. 20 These two orators were dressed in the customary Indian costumes. This year the costuming was unique in that one of the Indians was of necessity a squaw. This hilarious satire on college life was followed by the dignified campus and class orations given by Ruth Murray and Pat Andersen. Ruth Ewing, chosen as class poet, recited the long ode which she had composed for her class. After the Ivy oration by Catherine Dellea, the scene of the class day exercises soon shifted to Old Chapel. Here Beatrice Alpert and Anne Brown planted the ivy which commemorates the class of ' 45. The President ' s Reception, held in the rhododendron garden, took place on Saturday afternoon from three-thirty to five. After this reception, there was a half hour concert on the chimes in Old Chapel. At six o ' clock, the sorority and class reunions took place. These informal gatherings of old friends, arranged by the groups themselves, have always served to remind the students of the pleasant days spent at Massachusetts State College. At nine on Saturday evening, the graduating class was entertained in Bowker Audi- torium with the annual Roister Bolster play. This event is anticipated with pleas- ure each year by all who are acquainted with the work of this organization. Actually, the graduation festivities began on Thursday, May seventeenth, at the Senior Convocation. Walter Goehr- ing, the senior orator for the class of ' 45, was the main convocation speaker. His speech summarized the four years spent at State by his class, and also told of the contributions of this class made to the college. The senior class gift committee also presented the class gift to the college at this convocation. After this, Isogon, the women ' s honor society, tapped its new members. The size of the graduating class this year was approximately one hundred and twenty-eight students, most of whom were women. However, several men now in the armed forces were graduated at the commencement exercises. The graduating class of ' 44 also awarded diplomas to numbers of its students in absentia. It has been proposed that this be the last accelerated commencement. Here- after, the regular four year course will lead to the Bachelor ' s degree. Next year, commencement will take place later in the spring — the first week in June instead of the last week of May. This will be the result of observing various holidays, unobserved during the operation of the war program, which, in turn, will lengthen the college year. On Sunday morning at ten, graduation exercises were held in Bowker Auditori- um. After the Baccalaureate service, the class of ' 45 set forth upon a new venture in life. It took with it memories of four wonderful years spent in learning and living at Massachusetts State College. It brought to the world outside men and women who possessed eager minds and physically well-equipped bodies. Upon such as these will rest the decisions to be made for a lasting peace after this world conflict has ended, and the construction of a secure post-war world. 21 ] Al umni In January, 1945, records in the Alumni Office showed the names of 2004 Alumni and undergraduates on the service roster. Of this number, 51 were women. These men and women were — and are — dispersed literally all over the world. Some, of course, are still at training camps at various points within the United States, many are at the very front in every theatre of action. Many wear the Purple Heart. There have been 38 known fatal casualties. Wherever these men and women are stationed — either sweating out a train- ing period or official assignment at a post within the United States, or in the midst of combat — on land, on sea, or in the air — they carry on valiantly — to the great honor of their country, their College, and themselves. Hundreds of letters come to the Alumni Office from these men and women with the United States armed forces. Notes based on typical letters are these. Pfc. Edward Oppenheim ' 40 wrote from Italy, When two Massachusetts State Alumni meet over here, it ' s quite an event. Imagine how surprised I was to meet Captain Lou Bush ' 34 in Florence on New Year ' s Day! Lou ' s coaching pro- duced results, and the Fifth Army team was victorious. Lou was my basketball and football coach back in the ' 36 season, and just watching him talking to his Fifth Army Official Photograph Capt. Lou Bush ' 34, coaches the Fifth Army football team players sure brought back fond mem- ories. When Captain Bush was an under- graduate at the College, he made an out- standing record as an athlete — in football, basketball, baseball. In the fall of 1932 he was the Nation ' s leading football scorer. After graduation, Lou continued in athletics both as player and as coach. When war broke out, he entered the Army. At the time of the Allies ' invasion of Africa he was in command of an armored unit, spear-heading an Allied attack against the Germans. Lou fought through- out the African-Tunisian campaign on up into Sicily and Italy. After his unit had landed in Italy, Bush was assigned to a special service outfit; he served as coach of the Fifth Army ' s celebrated Kraut Clouters football team which, on New Year ' s Day, 1945, won the first. last and only Spaghetti Bowl game in Florence, Italy. Lieut. Colonel Al Gricius ' 37 has served, on special assignment, in almost every theatre of operations throughout the world. Now, in China, he has written, I ' ve gone to several Chinese parties and am quite an expert in my manipulation of chop sticks. I have only fifty grease spots on the front of my blouse from food that didn ' t stick to the sticks. Lieut, (j.g.) Herbie Click ' 39, USNR (son of Professor Click), wrote from an island in the Pacific, I wish you could have been here on Christmas Eve (1944). You would have seen Massachusetts State men assemble: Lieut, (j.g.) Herbie Howes ' 39, Ensign Johnny Bemben ' 39, and Lieut, (j.g.) Frank Stanne w ' 40. We had a grand old time talking of college days. Lieut. Bob Allen ' 35 is in France. At Thanksgiving time (1944) he and his men invited all the kids in their village to share Thanksgiving dinner with them. Each youngster had all he could eat of turkey, and a candy bar to carry home. Bob thought it was a wonderful Thanks- giving. T Sgt. Dick Smith ' 45 is overseas. His father, Dr. C. A. Smith ' 11, has written that Doric Alviani would get a kick out of learning that Dick was a member of an Army choir and glee club organized from the personnel within his particular outfit. Major Al Irzyk ' 40 received a battle- field promotion to a lieutenant colonelcy early in 1945. Al ' s justified pleasure in the promotion was completely overshadowed by his joy when on the very day of the promotion his younger brother, Lieut. Arthur Irzyk w ' 44, was assigned to his Al ' s, outfit. The brothers had not seen each other for nearly two years. Lieut. Nancy Luce ' 40, WAC, has been overseas for more than year — on opera- tional assignment in the Army Air Corps. She has written, I don ' t believe I will ever forget the day of our Men ' s first trip to the big ' B ' — none other than Berlin, nor the day they flew the ' double- header, ' the occasion when our bombers went over enemy territory, dropped their loads, returned to the base, reloaded and were off again on their second mission of the day. Lieut. Gil Santin ' 43 who was co- captain elect of the football team at College before he left State to join the Marine Air Corps has flown more than 90 missions against the Japanese. He is a member of what has been called a very hot Marine squadron, the famed Fight- ing Corsairs. 23  ummer Sch ool The purpose of the 1944 summer session was to provide opportunity for some students to accelerate their college pro- gram, and for others to prepare for en- trance into professional school and spe- cialized work. This session consisted of two six-week terms, from June 5 to August 26. One hundred and seventy- two students were enrolled, including an entering class of thirty -five freshmen. Of this number, one hundred and sixteen students returned for the fall semester. Under this two-semester plan, a student could enroll for one or both semesters, and was expected to carry six semester credits during each term. Each three semester credit course met for double periods five times weekly. Most labora- tory periods were scheduled in the after- noon. The curriculum was diversified and inclusive, offering specialized courses in eight major fields. The faculty consisted of the regular college staff. Students were housed in college dor- mitories, the women living in the Abbey and the men in North College. The Dra- per Hall cafeteria was used by all stu- dents. On July 5, a group of three hundred and thirty-three ASTRP students entered Mass. State, and a second group of fifty- four, on August 2. They were housed in Lewis and Thatcher Halls. A wide range of social activities was promoted by a student-faculty com- mittee composed of Mr. Larry Briggs and Miss Jean McNamara representing the faculty, and Pat Jennings ' 45, Joanne Freelander ' 46, Swiftie Johnston ' 45, Janet Bemis ' 46, George Gray ' 48, and Arnold Murray ' 46 representing the students. Among the highlights were Softball and tennis tournaments; vie parties; a picnic; a chimes concert; a hay ride and corn roast, held at the rifle range, at which the male members of the faculty cooked, while the students enjoyed a swimming party; a pops con- cert on the Abbey lawn; and Hale Wood- ruff at Social Union, speaking on Art in a Democracy. On weekends, the students and cadets frequented ye olde swimming hole (popular name for the ice pond). Early in the morning, they packed picnic lunches and bicycled to North Amherst, getting cokes and candy at the corner store. After swimming and diving for some time, everyone was ready for lunch. After- wards, the campers often lent their canoes; and though some were always tipped, everyone reached shore safely and pedalled back to campus to arrive in time for supper. The attitude of the students was ex- cellent, and scholastic achievements were very satisfactory. Because of the con- centrated plan of study, there was less opportunity for distraction than during the winter semester, and a more thorough working knowledge of subjects was at- tained. 24 Frosh Hazing Paddles and parades, sidewalk scrub- bing, and pond pushing combined to start another year of green frosh on the right path. Despite a drastic lack of sophomore supervision, the freshman boys were kept well in hand through the combined efforts of all upperclass men. Although these newest Statesmen were a little flip at first because of superiority in numbers, they were soon dismayed to learn that the upperclassmen were very adept in the social graces such as giving parties, particularly those situated in the vicinity of the College Pond, as they demonstrated at the rope pull. An invita- tion to these great occasions as guest of honor was easily obtained by disobeying a few of the upperclass whims. During the fall, the annual blossoming of the maroon caps added color to the campus scenery. According to the coeds, the feature of greatest delight was the musical hour conducted every morning for a week at six o ' clock in front of the dorms. The freshman girls were by no means forgotten this year. They, too, lightened the atmosphere with snowy white berets emblazoned with maroon class numerals. For three miserable weeks, they were forced by maroon beribboned sopho- mores to do any small tasks required. Certain taboos, such as no makeup un- less specified, keeping off the center walks of Stockbridge and the Libe, hop- ping the numerals on the sidewalk, and wearing identification pins all served to give the frosh the necessary feeling of humbleness. They quickly learned to detour around the upperclass hangout, the College Store, for fear of being forced to demonstrate their dramatic talent from table tops to a deriding audience. During the week of concentrated haz- ing, the freshman women were required to wear special clothing on three days. Monday was Baby Day, and the frosh acted accordingly, wearing their hair in pigtails, sucking lollypops, and lisping. Moron Day fell on Wednesday, when the girls wore violently clashing clothes back- wards and unmatched socks, and carried umbrellas, which they opened upon the upperclass yell of Air Raid! On Friday, everyone decked out in navy longs, crew caps, and sports equipment to carry out a motif of Sports Day. The most useful piece of equipment required, from an upperclass point of view, was the huge cardboard plaque around each fresh- man ' s neck with her name and home town printed upon it. The following week came the climax: the Torchlight Parade. Most of the col- lege turned out, marching behind the ASTRP band to the Amherst Common. College spirit was high, and except for the lack of organization and leading of the crowd, the parade set a promising prece- dent. [25 1 ormdls In spite of the prevailing war-time restrictions, the campus is gradually returning to normal. Each year finds the revival of another old tradition, and the formal dances are on the increase. Through the combined efforts of the ROTC and the ASTRP, a military ball was given this year on December 16th. Strictly Military was the theme, from the decorations to the band which pro- vided the music, the Bradley Field Or- chestra. The chief high-light of the evening was the selection of the Honorary Col- onel, Marion McCarthy ' 46. Captain Winslow E. Ryan presented the Colonel with a Massachusetts State College gold locket, and a military cape, which she will wear when she reviews the troops in the spring. The committee in charge included Jim Falvey, Clarence Burley, Bill Cour- chene, all of the class of ' 47 and ROTC men; the ASTRP was represented by George McAloon, Joseph Rooney, and Roswell Bosworth. Lt. Jones did a great deal in advising for plans. In keeping with the custom on the MSC campus, there was also held this year a Winter Carnival Weekend, on February ninth and tenth. Friday night, lights and an amplifying system were installed at the college pond. The students themselves enjoyed skating and watching an exhibition presented by the Ice Bergs from Springfield. This was followed by a ski boot dance in M em Hall. That same evening. Pi Beta Phi cap- tured the honors in the snow sculpture competition with their Ski Trooper. Second prize went to Sigma Iota with their Dopey, one of the Seven Dwarfs; and third place was awarded to North College for their sculpture of a Valentine. The judges for the snow sculpture were Dr. Helming, Professor Robertson and Mr. Varley. The awards were made at the ball, Saturday night. Saturday afternoon ' s events began with an exhibition in the pool by the Naiads. Their water ballet included water wheels, stars, and letter formations, including a gigantic M. The skiing events were held on the hill behind Thatcher Hall. In the men ' s slalom, first place was taken by Fernand Bartlett, and second place was tied be- tween George Pushee and Donald Smith. The men ' s downhill was won by Donald Glazier with George Pushee taking second place. The women ' s slalom and downhill were won by Sally Swift. The second place in both events was taken by a Mount Holyoke representative. Gloria Bonazzoli outsped every one to win the cross country event. The ASTRP boys, with the permission of Captain Ryan, entered the events, and the novices were there too, taking spills with the best of them, but taking more. The climax of the week-end was the 26 Ball which was given in the Drill Hall, transformed into an attractive atmos- phere by the use of elaborate decoration. The music this year was furnished by Morty Gould, his piano, and orchestra. Ann D ' Elia appeared with the band as vocalist. The biggest event of the evening was the selection of the Carnival Queen and her Court. The chaperons chose Dorothy Hurlock ' 46, Kappa Alpha Theta, as queen, and she was presented with a crown of flowers plus the large silver cup. She was attended by Catherine Dellea ' 45, Marion McCarthy ' 46, Lois Russell ' 46, Nancy Stacey ' 48, Edith Dover ' 48, and Barbara Cooley ' 48. Dr. and Mrs. Ritchie, Dr. and Mrs. Woodside, Mrs. Speer, and Lt. Jones were chaperons. The committee in charge included Jack Blalock ' 46, general chairman; Lois Russell ' 46, secretary; and Bill Stowe ' 46, treasurer. Others on the committee were Jim Falvey ' 47, Ruth Reynolds ' 46, Barbara Dower ' 47, Phyllis Houran ' 47, Ed Rachlefl ' 47, and Don Smith ' 46. Although these represent only a few of the formal dances that constituted a cus- tomary part of the annual social calendar in normal times, at least the spirit is here. We have not forgotten the others; they will return before long to the College Calendar. But in the meantime, the number being restricted, three formals were chosen to carry tradition through the period of war. As a climax to this college year, a gala Soph-Senior Hop filled the warm spring air with social harmony. 27 OCIdl U nion Conrad Thibault On October 17th, Conrad Thibault, a well-known baritone of radio and the concert stage, presented M.S.C. ' s first Social Union Program of the year. Mr. Thibault spent his boyhood in this locality, and many of his personal friends attended the concert. The program featured a great variety of selections, both old and new, of American, Italian, French, and Spanish origins, and generous additions of numer- ous encores. The second Social Union Program featured Robert Frost. Mr. Frost, intro- duced by Prof. Rand as the greatest living American poet, began his discussion by condemning the delight of certain modern poets to pur sue obscurity for obscurity ' s sake, which often makes their work meaningless. Among the poems he read from his col- lection were Spring Pools, which he called his only pure nature poem; Mending Wall, in which he pointed out the evi- dence of nationalism as well as inter- nationalism; The Soldier; Departmental; The Runaway; Stopping by the Woods on a Snowy Evening; and West-Running Brook. The annual Roister Doister Social Union Program was a three-act play, Dearest Abigail, written by two of the senior members of the dramatic club. The plot for the play was inspired by the twenty-fifth anniversary of the laying of the cornerstone of the Abbey. Miriam Marmein, a mimic and dancer, gave a recital on January 12th. Miss Marmein delighted the audience with both humorous and serious pantomimes, which accompanied her dancing. Out- standing on the program was And so to Bed, the interpretation of a beauty ritual of a glamour girl. And then the mood was quickly and cleverly changed to a biblical interpretation, Death of the First Born. Echoes and Encores was the title of the Glee Club Concert this year, given on February 17th in Bowker Auditorium. A performance by Mr. Mullholland, a well-known magician, completed the series of Social Union programs for the year. 28 Fine Arts The Fine Arts program included again, this year, a series of concerts, beginning with Doric Alviani ' s annual recital, on November 8. On December 6, Mr. Samuel Snow, a member of the Department of Landscape Architecture, showed koda- chrome slides of flowers of the south- west, under the title of The Desert Blooms. On December 13, George Nichols, pianist, Maurice Freedman, violinist, and Mrs. Esther Strong Clapp, soprano, per- formed in the annual faculty recital. In January, Mr. Rand ' s Dramatic Pro- duction class staged two one-act plays. The first, January 4, Be Sure Your Sex Will Find You Out, was a satire on women ' s idolization of masculine public figures. This can be compared to the bob- by-sock adoration of Frank Sinatra today. The cast included Virginia LaPlante, Ruth Ewing, Daphne Cullinan, and Ellen Kane. On January 18, the class presented Number 10, a tragedy behind the scenes in a hospital. This was under the direction of Ruth Ewing and the stage managing of Ruth Steele. The cast con- sisted of Jean Spettigue, Daphne Culli- nan, Mrs. C. Clark, Peggy Cowing, Ruth Steele, Virginia LaPlante, Dot Richards, Ellen Kane, and Ruth Ewing. Following each of the plays, two judges gave con- structive criticism to the cast. On February 14, Professor Clark Thayer gave an illustrated lecture on flowers, including demonstrations of the arrangement of bouquets, under the title of Cupid ' s Floral Messenger. Barbara Bird ' 45, contralto, Elinor Galuska ' 48, and Elva Forrester, concert pianist, presented the student recital on February 21. During the month of March, the Fine Arts Council presented two concerts. At the first one, Pauline Baines ' 48 and John Delevoryas ' 46 performed. Pauline Baines, possessor of a fine contralto voice, selected light classical songs to sing. John Dele- voryas, well-known on campus as a pian- ist, played popular classical pieces. Doric Alviani accompanied Pauline Baines. A week later, the Council presented two guest artists from Smith College. These girls played duet and solo numbers on the violin and the piano. Throughout the year, seven art exhi- bits were arranged in Memorial Hall. These included some of the work of Mr. Mclver and Prof. Robertson; American Water Colors; prints from the Redfern Gallery in London; water color paintings by W. Buckingham Swan, sho wing Amer- ican scenes from New Orleans to Glouces- ter; a collection of monotypes; an out- standing water color collection from the Whitney Museum; and the Faculty Show, consisting of work of faculty members, their wives, or alumni. The Fine Arts Council is composed of Dr. S. C. Goding, chairman; Miss Briggs, Prof. 0. Clark, Dr. J. Fuller, Miss Mc- Namara, Prof. Robertson, Prof. Rand, Miss Schoenleber, and Prof. J. Vondell. Operetta Music has been an outstanding feature of college life this year: the Glee Club has more than done its part by presenting two operettas. The second annual production of Hum- perdinck ' s immortal Hansel and Gret- el, performed by an all-girl cast, ushered in the Christmas season, the second weekend in December. The part of Han- sel was once again charmingly played by Betty Bates ' 45, while Constance Rothery ' 47 starred as Gretel. These two were supported by Helen Timson ' 46, as the mother; Wilma Winberg ' 45, as the cookie witch with a wild passion for bak- ing children into cookies; Marguerite Krackhardt ' 46 and Dorothy Morton ' 47, as the sleepy sandmen; and Gloria Har- rington ' 47 and Beatrice Decatur ' 46, as the wicked witches. Miss Shirley Wins- berg again directed the graceful dancing chorus. It is hoped that the repeated success of the presentation of Hansel and Gretel has resulted in establishing it as a tradition on our campus. As the year progressed, rehearsals got under way for the production of Flotow ' s popular operetta Martha, which was the Glee Club ' s spring presentation, pro- duced late in March. The leading part of Lady Harriet Durham was played by Beatrice Decatur; her friend Nancy, by Dorothy Morton ' 47; Sir Tristan Mickle- ford. Lady Harriet ' s cousin, by Max Shaponik ' 48; Lionel, the true Earl of Derby, by Chester Falby; Plunket, the wealthy farmer, by Elliot Swartz; and the Sheriff of Richmond, by Melvin Blake. Martha is a delightful farce dealing with some English ladies who, as they go slumming, are sold at auction, quite by mistake; and with many amus- ing situations that result. This is the first time in the course of several years that the standing Gilbert and Sullivan tradition has been tempor- arily abandoned in the operetta schedule of the Glee Club, for another composition of popular appeal. Most of the credit for this fine enter- tainment goes, naturally, to the Glee Club, without whose earnest support and endeavors these performances could not have been possible. But, as always, there is a person behind the scenes ; and in this case it is Doric Alviani who untiringly directed, advised, and encouraged all these productions. And, while we are acknowledging the roles of the more conspicuous performers in these produc- tions, it is not to be forgotten that there were other important co-workers who never shared the direct spotlight. The students in charge of scenery, lighting, make-up, and costumes are to be credited with performing the drudgery necessary to the success of Martha, and Hansel and Gretel. As a result, then, of such grand organ- ized cooperation, we find, as we look back over the year, memories of several rich musical moments. 30 - 1 J Trustees President His Excellency Maurice J.

The original ideal of the Society, that philosophy is the true guide to a well- lived life, is still a profoundly appealing one; and the attitude it implies naturally draws together those who aspire to it and share it. The local group includes men of widely different interests, but underlying them all is the conviction that wisdom is more important than the profession. The local Association has endeavored in •its own programs to extend its knowledge of the ideas which shape the thought of ■ ' A 1 J liberally educated people in our time; it also participates in the objects of the national Society. At the fall meeting of the Association this year. Dr. Hastings Lyon, Professor Emeritus of Columbia University, Law School, was the guest speaker. His subject was Coke vs. Bacon: Law vs. Equity. As for the national Society, it has sought to encourage its ideal in the world of affairs by fighting for the cause of liberal education. The local association tries to give expression to the ideal by electing from the senior class each spring, a Phi Beta Kappa scholar, whose record expresses the ideal of the Society. The following members of the local as- sociation are: Professor Frank C. Moore, President; Mrs. Kenneth L. Bullis, Vice- President; Dr. Marion Smith, Secretary- Treasurer; Dr. Vernon P. Helming, Dr. Walter Miller, Dr. A. B. Beaumont, Dr. G. C. Crampton, Lieutenant Charles H. DuBois, Mrs. William B. Easton, Jr., Mrs. G. E. Erickson, Dr. Stowell C. Coding, Professor Arthur N.

In each of the accredited schools, several students, outstanding for their personality and their position of leadership on the campus, are selected by an impartial committee to have a biographical sketch included in the book, which is placed in the hands of hundreds of companies, who annually re- cruit outstanding students for employ- ment. This year, the following students of Massachusetts State College, from an en- rollment of one hundred and twenty-five men and six hundred women, were in- cluded in the 1944-45 book: Elliot R. Allen, Lucille O. Chaput, Elizabeth A. Bates, Catherine T. Dellea, Phyllis L. Hyatt, Mary A. Milner, Ruth J. Murray, Wilma C. Winberg, and Pearl Wolozin, all mem bers of the Class of ' 45; Claire L. Healy, Donald L. Smith, Jean R. Spet- tigue, Ruth M. Steele, and Anne Tilton, all members of the Class of ' 46. Students nominated last year who are still at col- lege were automatically included again in this year ' s book. These included Barbara H. Bird, Joseph C. Kunces, and Barbara L. Pullan, all of the Class of ' 45. Inclusion in the book entitles students to buy a copy of the publication, which is also available at the college employment office for references requested by com- mercial companies; and to purchase and wear a Who ' s Who key. [45 Bates, Bird, Wolozin Hyatt, PuUan, Winberg, Milner Isogon Isogon is an honorary society of seven junior girls tapped by the graduating members at Commencement, and four seniors, tapped in spring, on the basis of scholarship, personality, character, and activity. Members this year were Wilma Win- berg, president of Isogon and Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority, and member of the Glee Club and Who ' s Who in American Colleges and Universities; Barbara Pullan, vice-president, editor of the Collegian for two years, and member of Who ' s Who and Phi Kappa Phi; Betty Bates, ex- manager of the Glee Club, active member of WAA and the Phillips Brooks Club, and a member of Who ' s Who; Barbara Bird, member of WAA, Statettes, Kappa Alpha Theta, and Who ' s Who; Phyllis Hyatt, vice-president of Kappa Kappa Gamma, member of the Glee Club, Who ' s Who, WSGA, and WAA ' , Mary Milner, secretary-treasurer of Isogon, president of the 4-H Club, member of WAA, Who ' s Who and the Glee Club; Pearl Wolozin, president of the Pan- hellenic Council and vice-president of Sigma Iota, and a member of Who ' s Who. The four senior girls tapped this spring were Margery Cole, Patricia Jennings, Ruth Murray and Norma Sanford Pen- nington. Isogon, together with Mrs. Speer, assistant Dean of Women, is responsible for the successful conduction of the campus U.S.O. It also directs the junior- senior processional and has charge of ushering at graduation. Isogon cooperates with the Senate and the WSGA in admin- istration of student government. 46 Steele, Damon, Brett, Whitmore, Strome, Hurlock Carlson, Brown, Wolozin, Hickman, Kenvon Panhellenic As the chimes ushered in the 1942-43 season, Intersorority Council was re- christened — Panhellenic Council. The exit of the majority of M.S.C. ' s men re- sulted in the dormancy of Interfraternity Council. Panhellenic, however, has car- ried on as the governing and mediating body among sororities on campus. This year, Panhellenic had as officers Pearl Wolozin ' 45, president; Lucille Chaput ' 45, vice-president; Marjorie Hickman ' 46, secretary-treasurer; and Lillian Strome ' 46, Ruth Steele ' 46, Shir- ley Carlson ' 45, Marilyn Hadley Damon ' 45, Marjorie Brett ' 46, Carolyn Whit- more ' 46, Patricia Kenyon ' 45, Anne Brown ' 45 and Dorothy Hurlock ' 46, as members of the Council. Under the willing cooperation of these twelve girls, Panhellenic sponsored several campus activities, including the Inter- sorority Declamation and Sing, a mam- moth bridge party, and the annual plaque for the sorority with the highest scholastic average. To the freshman girls, Panhellenic sent a small pamphlet about rushing rules and etiquette, pledging, initiation, rules governing social functions, lists of campus sororities and their members, methods of procedure for founding sororities, both locally and nationally, the number of chapters of national sororities on campus, freshman and member dues — all designed to acquaint the girls with the choices open to them. Such a promising start of the Panhel- lenic Council indicates continued ex- pansion in its program and its efficiency as a sorority mediator. [47 Chin, Blaloek, Smith, Goehring Allen, West, Kunces, Stowe Senate The Senate, male student governing body on campus, instills fear into the hearts of maroon-capped freshmen. The Senators supervise all hazing in the fall, from organizing the dawn serenades at girls ' dormitories, to setting down rules for the rope pull with the sophomores. For the duration of the war, the con- ventional number of eleven Senators has been reduced to eight: Joe Kunces ' 45, president; Fred West ' 45, vice-president; Elliot Allen ' 45, treasurer; Bill Stowe ' 46, secretary; Don Smith ' 46, historian; Walter Goehring ' 45, chairman of the social committee; and Jack Blaloek ' 46 and Dick Chin ' 46. But these eight mem- bers have shown their effectiveness as a body, in uniting and organizing, not only the elections of the governing board of the freslmian class and the officers of the other classes, but in taking charge of appeals for donations to the Red Cross Blood Bank and, in cooperation with the W.S.G.A., in reorganizing the point system established to regulate the repre- sentation of students among the campus positions. Continuing its annual duties of ap- pointing the Winter Carnival and the Soph-Senior Committee, the Senate also collaborated with the W.S.G.A. in manag- ing the Community Chest Drive, pub- lishing the Freshman Handbook, helping in a campaign to adjust library hours for the greater convenience of the student body, and striving to maintain the high standards of the college, of scholarship and extracurriculiun organization. 48 Dellea, Steele, Mears, Merrill. Carlson Piper, Tilton, Hyatt, Todd WSG A New point system . . . better convos . . . Collegian column ... these and many others have been the accomplishments of the Women ' s Student Government Asso- ciation this year. In October, Helen Beaumont, presi- dent, resigned her position to serve in the WAVES, and Anne Tilton, vice-presi- dent, became the first junior ever to hold the gavel. Phyllis Hyatt, treasurer; Polly Piper and Genevieve Todd, the sophomore representatives who filled the office of secretary left vacant by Mary Vachon ' s absence; Ruth Steele, Kay Dellea, and Virginia Mears, house chair- men; Shirley Carlson, sorority repre- sentative; and Anne Merrill, speaking for the off-campus girls, made up the executive council. W.S.G.A. cooperated with the Senate and the SCA in the publication of the Freshman Hand Book and, together with the Senate, made an administrative ap- peal for longer library hours. A step was taken to raise the scholastic average of the freshman girls by limiting their social and extracurricula activities. The traditional freshman exam was given, to the dismay of the class of ' 48. A new column, W.S.G.A. Notes, ap- peared in the Collegian, summarizing the current actions taken by the Council. One of these was the reorganization of the judiciary body to a standing Judiciary Board, which was to try all cases of coed misdemeanor. Its link with the Executive Council was the vice-president, who acted as secretary to the Board. 1945 Arrayed in the robe of dignity and the mask of power, the grave and noble seniors have led the student body on to new heights of achievement in social, religious, academic, and governmental organizations. Class officers were Joe Kunces, president; Kay Dellea, vice-pre- sident; Anne Brown, treasurer; Ruth Ewing, secretary; Fred West, captain; and Don Julian, sergeant-at-arms. 1946 The junior class, under the leadership of Roger Richards, president; Dot John- son, vice-president; Dot Hurlock, secre- tary; John Delevoryas, treasurer; Gerry Swanson, captain; and Lois Banister, sergeant-at-arms, has been instrumental in keeping alive campus traditions, re- organizing pre-wartime associations, plan- ning social functions, and coordinating student and A.S.T.R.P. activities. 1947 The sophomores have assumed many prominent positions on campus. They are alive with college spirit and hold promise for the future. At their November elec- tions, the following officers were chosen: Jim Reed, president; Mac Cande, vice-president; Barbara Brown, secretary; Bill Courchene (now in the Navy), treasurer; Jim Falvey, captain; and Clarence Burley, sergeant-at-arms. r 1 n fW ii.- B mm . ' « '  mm fT t 50 nil |-v 1 r ] P J III 1 uU . Il ' c ollegidn The Massachusetts State Collegian staff is a unifying organization on campus. It gathers the news from all the depart- ments of the college and prints that news in the weekly paper. Every Thursday noon, the doors of Stockbridge are jammed with students, all intent upon one purpose: to procure the Collegian and devour its contents along with Thursday ' s lunch. In this paper can be found a summary of the coming week ' s activities on campus, a review of basket- ball, volleyball, football games, or some sport which has been played recently. A column devoted to student opinion on topics of pertinent interest has been added this year. Letters to the Editor is another column, which is a means of expressing student opinion. The im- portant Serviceman ' s Column keeps the students up-to-date as to the where- abouts of their classmates and friends in the armed services. In a friendly spirit, space has been given each week to the campus A.S.T.R.P. unit. The editorial column is an important feature of the paper. The front page is devoted to cur- rent news, such as articles about a Social Union entertainer, write-ups about State ' s formal dance week-ends, reviews of con- certs, or plans for the future of Massachu- setts State College. Two columns, Co- editing and Statement, which are written in a satirical vein, are very popular among the students. Stockbridge Notes has constituted another permanent column. This year, the Collegian sponsored a Pops Concert, the first of its kind at State. Dr. Goldberg acted as Master of Ceremonies. The program featured Doric Alviani, John Delevoryas, and the debut of a new orchestra. Mr. Richard Mac- Meekin, assistant dean of Amherst Col- lege, was a delightful surprise performer. He mystified the audience with his magic. The proceeds from the sale of tickets and refreshments were used for sending the Collegia?! to students in the armed forces. The success of the evening ' s entertainment was largely due to the management and hard work of Jean Spet- tigue. At the end of the first semester, senior members, Barbara Pullan, who had com- pleted two very successful years as editor of the Collegian; Ahna Rowe, associate editor; and Irmarie Scheuneman, manag- ing editor, vacated their respective of- fices. Jason Kirshen was elected as editor-in-chief, and Rosemary Speer and Lillian Brochu were elected as co-manag- ing editors. Jason Kirshen appointed Anne Merrill as associate editor, Helen NeJame and Mary O ' Reilly as news editors, and Lois Ann Banister as secre- tary for the new year. Second semester found the Collegian continuing its great service to the college as a medium of campus news and student opinion, and as a link with former stu- dents in the armed forces, here and abroad. 52 Felstiner, Spring, Banister, Merrill, Young, Brochu, Sullivan, Thomas, Collins McCarthy, Clancy, O ' Reilly, Epstein, Jacobs, Bayles, Burroughs, Shea, NeJame Kunces, Mastalerz, Boyd, Scheuneman, Pullan, Rowe, Speer, Kirshen, Karas This year ' s reporters for the Collegian are Agnes Bowles, Jane Clancy, Marjorie Hall, Anne Powers, Jean Bayles, Jewel Kaufman, Theodora Melahouris, Barbara Stegner, Helen Burroughs, Dorothy Gard- ner, Arthur Karas, Harriet Sternberg, Lillian Heaver, John Mastalerz, Ruth Raphael, Lila Skeist and Ronald Thaw. The columnists are Marion McCarthy, Jerry Shea, Donald Smith, and Ruth Felstiner. The business board has the following members: Jean Spettigue, business man- ager; Betty Boyd, advertising manager; Virginia Minahan, assistant; Arthur Ka- ras, circulation manager; Donald Jacobs and Edward Young, assistants; Diane Kelton, subscription manager; Marjorie Hall, assistant; Verne Bass, Bernice Mac- Inerny, secretaries ; and Gloria Bissonette and Alan Kahn. The two boards continue to work under the direction of Dr. Goldberg, literary adviser and Professor Dickinson, business adviser. Under the new management, the Collegian is developing a definite policy of taking issue on campus controversies in both the editorial and the student opinion columns. Some of these have been the urgent need for a sidewalk on the west side of North Pleasant Street, and a stimulation of interest in developing the college to the status of a university.

After elections in the spring of the year, there is a notification of a new position, but it ' s not until that first plan- ning of the dimimy in the summer that the realization of the task presents its first impact. With a collection of previous Indexes at hand, a tentative list of sub- jects to be included takes an amorphous shape — later to be revised and still later to be re-revised. Such things as size of type, style of copy, and design remain in darkness until, one by one, with the aid of experts, they seem to fall in their places. This year the board held its first meet- ing October 5 with Ruth Murray, Editor- in-chief; Ellen Kane, Business Manager; Millie Griffiths, Associate Editor; Eva SchifFer, Literary Editor; Dorothea Beach, Statistics Editor; and Connie Dorgan, Art Editor. During the year, Ronald Thaw was elected Sports Editor. Little could have been done, however, without the willing aid afforded by Pro- fessor Lawrence S. Dickinson, financial adviser, and Dr. Maxwell H. Goldberg, literary adviser. Once again the Index made its quarters in Memorial Hall since the 58th was no longer stationed on campus. According to custom the call for competitors was issued and the over- whelming number of thirty-four responses was a record-breaking event. The editors conscientiously set about their task, and in all departments progress was made. Aiding the department editors, Ele Bryant, Lois Ba nister, Jean Gould, and Margaret O ' Haggerty interviewed, wrote, and rewrote; Ethel Whitney, Ellie Nason, and Nancy Newell obtained and put in order student and faculty statistics; Ruth Reynolds went after the ads to make the budget balance. Contracts for printing, photography, and engraving — Andover Press of Ando- ver, Sargent Studio of Boston, and Mo- hawk Engraving Company of Greenfield — were made at the earliest possible moments. Because of the vast difference of the campus enrollment, a new feature was added this year. It was suggested by a faculty member that we write to all the parents of former members of the class of 1945 requesting that they send in a pic- ture of their son or daughter. The board was unanimously in favor, and cooper- ated with avidity. A short time later, the editor ' s mail became exceedingly heavy, and, as a result the Index now has one hundred and fifty pictures of classmates 54 Gould, Newell, Whitney, Banister, Nason, Brj ' ant Beach, Kane, Murray, Griffiths, Schiffer, Thaw who were so familiar but who, for the most part, are serving their country all over the world. In December, the Index awarded a loving cup for the first time to the high school in the Western Massachusetts League of School Publications having the best yearbook. After long and careful deliberation by the judges — Dr. Maxwell Goldberg, Professor Lawrence Dickinson, Miss Kathleen Tully, and Miss Ruth Murray — a tie for the honor was an- nounced. Amherst High School and Springfield Classical High School were to have the cup one half year each. This cup was purchased by the 1944 Index staff and the idea is accredited to its Editor-in-chief, Annette Bousquet. On February eighth, the staff was pre- sented the difficult task of selecting those competitors who had proven themselves worthy of membership. Results: Liter- ary, Lee Hodges, Frances Johnston, Shir- ley Goldstein, Roslyn Glick; Stati-stics, Ruth Barron, Barbara Glagovsky, Gene- vieve Novo, Barbara Smith, Constance Thatcher, Irene Toyfair, Phyllis Tuttle; Business, Shirley Chaves, Estelle Free- man, Charlotte Chaletsky, Jean Spet- tigue, Anne Merrill, Joanne Freelander; Art, Jacqueline Winer, Doris Chaves, and Jerry Casper (now in the Navy) . [55] Quarterly During the past two college years, double means of stimulating and recog- nizing literary effort on campus have been in operation. One of these has been the Quarterly Club, an informal organization of students interested in creative writing. Chief results of this have been a care- fully worked out Constitution and prog- ress toward independent status of the Quarterly; discussion meetings, at which contributions have been read and con- structively criticized; and lecture meet- ings. Talks have been given by writers such as Dr. William G. O ' Donnell, mem- ber of our English Department and ac- complished essayist, who presented a critique of James Joyce ' s Ulysses; and Robert Francis, local poet of inter- national reputation, who stressed the need for sympathetic interpretation of poetry and the secondary importance of mechanical technique — with special emphasis on Robert Frost ' s Spring Pools. The officers of the Quarterly Club have been Arnold Murray ' 46, chairman; Eva Schiffer ' 46, vice-chairman; Doris Rob- erts ' 45, secretary-treasurer; Barbara Elaine Cross ' 46, Cornelia Dorgan ' 46, and Arnold Golub ' 47, members-at-large. The second means by which literary efforts on campus have been stimulated has been the Quarterly itself, a publica- tion devoted to undergraduate creative writing. Last year, because of severely limited resources, the Quarterly appeared as a Collegian supplement, on February 10, 1944. It was edited by a committee composed of David Balise ' 47, chairman; and Barbara Elaine Cross ' 46, Jason Kirshen ' 46, Eva Schiffer ' 46, and Ro- berta Miehlke ' 44, who selected most of their material from among the contribu- tions discussed and approved at meetings of the Quarterly Club. This year, following a long and in- tensive competition, the editorial com- mittee of the Quarterly is made up of Barbara Elaine Cross ' 46, Arnold Golub ' 47, Dorothea Lohmann ' 46, and Hilda Sheinberg ' 47. The editorial board elec- tion was based on a form of competition patterned after a practice of former years. Its main purpose is to provide a rotation system giving a fair representa- tion to capable members of different classes. The committee has the responsi- bility of producing two moderate issues, or one large issue, of the Quarterly, during the current academic year. Funds for these issues have been directly allocated by the Academic Activities Board. In view of the variety and the abundance of promising material submitted, the edi- torial committee feels confident of a successful year for the Quarterly. Professor Frank Prentice Rand, Gen- eral Manager of the Academic Activities Board, is a sponsor of the Quarterly; Professor Lawrence Dickinson is financial adviser; and Dr. Maxwell H. Goldberg is general adviser of both the Quarterly and the Quarterly Club. 56 Sinfoniettd The Sinfonietta, the orchestral organ- ization of Mass. State, has presented many successful programs this year under the enthusiastic direction of Doric Alviani and assistance of Claire Healy ' 46, as concert mistress. Their activities for the season include a Convocation pro- gram on December 14th, and a Social Union Concert given jointly with the Glee Club in March. The orchestra also participated in the operetta Martha by Flotow, given on March 23rd and 24th. The wide representation of the fresh- man and sophomore classes justifies an optimistic anticipation of future success. Although much smaller in size than in previous years, the players have been striving to improve the quality of their performances by rehearsing faithfully each week with their director. Among the members of the Sinfonietta are: Claire Healy ' 46 and Natalie Cara- ganis ' 45, violin; Pat Hamilton ' 48, Faith Jillson ' 47, Phyllis Cushman ' 48, and Cynthia Foote ' 48, flute; Ruth Raph- ael ' 48, Evelyn Downing ' 48, and Nancy Love ' 47, clarinet; Elva Foerster ' 48, piano; Marcia VanMeter ' 48, saxophone; Lila Skeist ' 48, ' cello; Dot Holly ' 47, oboe; Gladys Geiger ' 47, drums; Eli Clark ' 48, trombone; Robert SanSoucie ' 48, tympani. Ch oir Consisting of sixty members of the class of ' 48, the all-girl freshman glee club includes a larger percentage of the entire class than in former years. In regular Wednesday evening rehearsals under the direction of Doric Alviani, these girls have acquired a varied reper- toire of folk tunes, negro spirituals, and difficult chorals. The goals of the group are to develop mastery songs, as well as of such requiring more skilled voices; and to build the choral background that is a prerequisite for membership of the upperclass Glee Club. At convocation on December 14, uni- formly dressed in grey skirts and white blouses, the ' 48 Glee Club starred in the annual program, Fresh Music. Two of the more talented soloists from among the freshmen girls were Margaret Peck and Phyllis Cooley. The Freshman Choir, a subdivision of this Glee Club, consists of its forty best voices, who continue their work as a unit after the Freshman Glee Club is disbanded in February. They also sing at the weekly Sunday afternoon Vesper services. In recognition of the time re- quired for weekly rehearsals and the mu- sical knowledge attained, choir members earn one scholastic credit per semester. 57 Glee Club This year, Massachusetts State Col- lege ' s Glee Club added to its successes of the past years. In the fall, competition for membership was keen; and an un- usually large number, seventy-one, were chosen to compose the organization. During the first semester, at the Jones Library, the group presented a concert entitled Songs We Sing, at which the four new Statesmen, Chuck Robitaille, Ted Blank, Ellie Swarz, and Chet Falby, were introduced, and Phyllis Cool- ey, soprano, and Elva Foerster, pianist, gave their initial performances. The program was repeated for the campus students in the Old Chapel and was equally well received. At Christmas, Hansel and Gretel was presented for the second successive year as the Glee Club ' s annual first semester program. Betty Bates and Con- nie Rothery filled the leading roles; Chet Falby ' 48, in the role of Peter, the father, was the only male member of the cast. Professor James Robertson, of the de- partment of Landscape Architecture, designed special scenery and Miss Wins- berg of the Physical Education Depart- ment again instructed the cast in dance steps. The Glee Club, in cooperation with the Freshman Choir, also sang at Christ- mas Vespers. During the week of final examinations, the membership of the Glee Club had to be drastically reduced to twenty-nine students, in order to enable the group to travel for out-of town concerts in compli- ance with ODT rulings. The new Glee Club appeared at the winter meeting of the American Alumni Association, which was held in Amherst. Later, they sang in New York and Boston for the Alumni of M ass. State in those cities. The Glee Club was now under the man- agement of Lee Hodges, who was assisted by Ruth Barron, personal relations officer; Helen Timson, secretary; Mar- garet O ' Hagerty, treasurer; Barbara Cole, librarian; and Doris Roberts and Delight Bullock, publicity chairmen. The second semester program for the Glee Club included a trip to Northfield to entertain the Rotary Club at the Northfield Hotel, and to Sunderland and Springfield to present Hansel and Gret- el. On March twenty-third and twenty- fourth, the Glee Club presented the operetta Martha, which met with the ready appreciation of music lovers in Amherst. The annual Social Union Con- cert, February 17, presented jointly by the Glee Club and the Sinfonietta, featured The AU-Time Parade, includ- ing special performances by the States- men and the Statettes (Dorothy Johnson, Lee Hodges, Beatrice Decatur, and Bar- bara Bird) . A bond-selling tour, a trip to Greenfield, and participation in a local program of hospital therapy, starting with a repeat performance at the West- over Military Hospital, completed the program for the year 1944-45. 58 Rothery, Krackhardt, Winberg, Harrington, Hyatt, Abelein, Timson, Bullock, Love, Reynolds, Barron Stebbins, Jillson, Morton, Swartz, Blake, Falby, Shaponik, Cole, Griffiths, Fortune Decatur, Hodges, O ' Hagerty, Heyman, Baker, Thomas, Carlson, Bates, Bird, Johnson The members of the Glee Club this year were Jean Abelein, Virginia Aldrich, Ruby Almgren, Marjorie Andrew, Pris- cilla Baldwin, Elaine Baker, Ruth Bar- ron, Betty Bates, Barbara Bigelow, Bar- bara Bird, Rachel Bouchard, Delight Bullock, Shirley Carlson, Barbara Cole, Iris Cooper, Jean Cummings, Barbara Croos, Beatrice Decatur, Jean Decker, Barbara Dower, Ruth Edmonds, Mar- jorie Flint, Betty Fortune, Virginia Go- lart, Mildred Griffiths, Natalie Hambly, Gloria Harrington, Marjorie Hattin, Nat- alie Caraganis, Annette Heym an, Mar- jorie Hickman, Annis Hittinger, Lee Hodges, Phyllis Hyatt, Doris Jacobs, Faith Jilson, Dorothy Johnson, Janet Kehl, Marguerite Krackhardt, Virginia LaPlante, Lila Lawless, Genevieve Lekar- czyk, Nancy Love, Betty Magrane, Doris Martin, Florence Melnick, Mary Milner, Dorothy Morton, Eleanor Mon- roe, Eleanor Nason, Margaret O ' Hagerty, Mary O ' Reilly, Polly Piper, Ruth Rey- nolds, Doris Roberts, Ruth Raison, Eleanor Rockwood, Constance Rothery, Barbara Scannell, Mary Staltari, Mary Stebbins, Jean Swanson, Jean Thomas, Helen Timson, Hazel Traquair, Audrey Townsend, Frances White, Wilma Win- berg, Phoebe Wood, Jean Woodard, and Violet Zych. 59 Freeman, Dower Kunces, Healy, Resnick, Allen United Religious Council The Lnited Religious Council, the campus interfaith group, under the direc- tion of Reverend W. Burnett Easton, forged ahead actively this year. The Sunday afternoon Vesper Services, which were instituted by this group, were held regularly throughout the year. Among the speakers were Rev. Dr. John Hoon, from Springfield; Dr. J. Paul Williams, of Mount Holyoke College; Dr. Ralph Harlow, of Smith College; Rabbi Levi Olan, from Worcester; and Mr. Lewis Fox, from Hartford. The activities during the year included a political forum, in anticipation of the November election. In connection with the observance of Brotherhood Week in March, the Council sponsored Rev. H. G. Jones of Worcester, Father A. P. Farrell, from New York, and Rabbi Feldman of Hartford in a convocation program, a banquet, and an evening forum. This year ' s officers included Joe Kun- ces, president; Claire Healy, vice-presi- dent; Barbara Daley, secretary; and Laura Resnick, treasurer. The United Religious Council is com- posed of representatives of the three ma- jor faiths, Protestant, Jewish, and Catho- lic. The Newman Club, for Catholic students, is represented by Joe Kunces, Barbara Dower, and Barbara Daley; the Student Christian Association, by Virginia Tripp, Carolyn Whitmore, and Claire Healy; the Hillel Foundation, Jewish religious organization, by Elliot Allen, Laura Resnick, and Estelle Free- 60 S. C. A. An undenominational Protestant or- ganization, whose services and projects are open to all students, the Student Christian Organization this year had over 150 active members. The greatest single accomplishment was the acquisition and the renovation of a worship room on the fifth floor of South College. Worship services were held there at least weekly. In cooperation with the Amherst College Christian Association, the Holyoke Boys ' Club was cleaned. In the fall, the SCA sponsored the an- nual series of discussion groups led by interested faculty members or towns- people. These included such subjects as Finding a Philosophy of Life and Immortality. Throughout the year, retreats have been held at regular intervals, including a supper in South Amherst at Munson Memorial Library, a weekend at North- field, and one at Camp Anderson. Lively discussions on current student problems at these meetings were led by Mr. Easton or by other faculty members. Affiliated with the New England Stu- dent Christian Movement and the World Student Christian Federation, the Mass. State Christian Association participates in all possible S.C.M. conferences and commissions in New England. Large delegations attended several conferences held at Andover-Newton Theological Seminary; and in April, Mass. State was host to the Connecticut Valley College Conference, to which came delegates from Smith, Mt. Holyoke, Dartmouth, Amherst, and other neighboring colleges. The direction of the SCA is managed by the officers and Cabinet, which meet weekly with Mr. Easton. Cabinet meet- ings are open to all members. The officers this year are Claire Healy, president; Ruth Steele, vice-president; Carolyn Whitmore, secretary. Other members of the Cabinet are Janet Kehl, Rosemary Speer, Ruth Reynolds, John Delevoryas, Walter Goehring, Goon Lee Chin, Helen Barrows, Virginia Tripp, Janet Mallon, Alma Rowe, Betty Goodall, Fred Ander- son, Carol Goodchild, Jeanne Lindsey, Betty Lou Tolman, Howard Stowe, and Ruby Almgren. Publications of the organization are SCAN, a monthly news sheet summariz- ing important conferences and coming events, edited by Rosemary Speer, editor- in-chief, and Helen Barrows, associate editor; and the Freshman Handbook, which is distributed to freshman girls to acquaint them with a bird ' s-eye view of campus customs and regulations. The Handbook was published this year in collaboration with the Senate, and WSGA included its Constitution and the prin- ciples of the sorority system. This year, also, the SCA helped set a very desirable precedent, namely that of joint SCA-Hillel meetings, two of which featured Dr. Harlow of Smith College and Lewis Fox of Hartford. 61 N ewman The purpose of the Newman Club, a religious and cultural organization for Catholic students on campus, is to strengthen the religious faith of the stu- dents, and to develop their understanding of their relationships with students of other faiths. As part of the club ' s various activities, two communion breakfasts were held, one each semester. On November 29, Dr. Joseph Reilly of Hunter College, an outstanding authority on Cardinal New- man, gave a talk which received enthusi- astic applause from the Club. More than two hundred students attended the in- formal Christmas party which the New- man Club sponsored on December 20. A large number of ASTRP students, stationed here at the college, also attended the party. Group discussions were held at several of the meetings, typical topics being race relations and intermarriage; whi le at one meeting slides were shown of the Mass. The officers for the 1944-1945 season were Joseph Kunces ' 45, president; Kay Dellea ' 45, vice-president; Barbara Daley ' 47, secretary; and Phyllis Tuttle ' 46, treasurer; under the guidance of Miss Mary E. Garvey, and Fathers Lane and Powers, of St. Bridgid ' s Church in Am- herst. Hillel Foundation One of the growing organizations on our campus is the Hillel Foundation, for- merly the Menorah Club, which became affiliated with the B ' nai B ' rith Founda- tion in 1943. The officers of Hillel for the 1944-45 season were Elliot ( Rube ) Allen ' 45, president; Laura Resnick ' 46, vice-presi- dent; Esther Goldstein ' 46, recording secretary; Barbara Brown ' 47, corre- sponding secretary; and Estelle Freeman ' 47, L ' nited Religious Council Representa- tive. Hillel was also fortunate this year in having as religious leader Rabbi Louis Ruchames, who came to the local chapter from the University of Alabama. Under his direction and that of the executive board and the Senior Council, dances and discussion groups were held. The new series of joint SCA-Hillel meetings fea- tured Dr. Harlow in a discussion on Do We Mean What We Say. ' ' and Lewis Fox, speaking on How Can I Believe in God.? In November, representatives from the M.S.C. chapter attended the Connecticut Valley Hillel Conference at the University of Connecticut. On March 10-11, 1945, the Pioneer ' alley Conference was held here. The Calendar was published as a bi-weekly and edited by Estelle Freeman, with Charlotte Chaletzky as coeditor. 62 Wesley Under the auspices of the Methodist Church, Wesley Foundation has provided Christian fellowship and counsel for stu- dents and service men at M.S.C. and Amherst College. Its officers were: presi- dent, Peggy Jenks ' 45; vice-president, Ginny Tripp ' 45; secretary -treasurer, Jeanne Lindsey ' 46; devotional chairman, Ruth Raison ' 46. Rev. Harold Cramer, pastor of the Methodist Church, is the religious director of the organization. Meetings were held every Sunday eve- ning at the home of Dr. and Mrs. A. H. Lindsey, who have placed their recreation room at the disposal of the group. After a social hour and supper, a worship service was held, followed by discussions. Among the discussions featured were The Case for Missions, led by Dr. D. K. Vleet; People of the Far East, by Dr. Frank M. Mohler, who has spent many years in the Orient; and Immortality, by Rev. James Yee, a Chinese pastor of the Congregational Church in South Hadley. This year, for the first time, Wesley Foundation held a weekend retreat at Northfield Seminary. In the sanctity of Round Top (the burial place of Dwight L. Moody, founder of the school), the members received new inspiration and guidance. Phillips Brooks In 1937, a small group of Episcopal students from Massachusetts State Col- lege held a meeting at the home of Dr. Charles F. Fraker, from which evolved the Phillips Brooks Club, active campus organization for Episcopal students. Meetings are held every second Thurs- day at the home of Mrs. Ralph Williams, since the parish house is occupied by the U.S.O. Supper is followed by a discussion, usually led by Rev. Jesse Trotter, min- ister at the Grace Episcopal Church. At first the discussions were based upon the acceptance of God as the center of life, and the application of this idea to current problems. Some of the discussion topics have been God and Economics, God and the Nation, and God and Your- self. In March, Amherst College stu- dents joined the group in a new program, brought here from the South by Rev. Trotter. The general theme of the discus- sions, led by Caroline Smith ' 46, was the controlling factors in our lives, such as public opinion, home training, and the desire for happiness. The club has two faculty advisers, Dr. Charles F. Fraker and Dr. H. Karl Lutge; and three student officers, Caro- line Smith ' 46, president; Irene Strong ' 45, treasurer; and Elizabeth Bates ' 45, secretary. 63 B «J J ■w i tl V H H L P itt .3 H KI Kr m, ' — ■ HH R LWL J h IBl IHHSo l ETH i Jm!

Rice ' 45, vice-president; Irmarie Scheuneman ' 45, pubhcity manager, and Professor Rand, adviser. Dearest Abigail was presented in December as a three-act play written by Irmarie Scheuneman ' 45 and Carol Good- child ' 45, and directed by Ruth Ewing ' 45. In February, the Roister Doisters revived the annual inter-class contest omitted last year; each class chose its own play, cast, and director. The senior presentation, Dance Macabre, was a satire on life in an old ladies ' home. The freshman class produced New School for Wives about girls finding them- selves by the finishing school method. The setting of They Asked For It, the contribution of the juniors, was a defense factory. The sophomore play, Mind Over Matter, was a witty satire of a campus parody. Prof. Rand remarked, as he presented a book, Thirty Famous One-Act Plays, to each member of the winning freshman cast, This proves that we attract talent to our institution, even if we don ' t im- prove upon it. Letter to Lucerne was the Commencement production. 64 Outing Club Early in November, the M.S.C. Outing Club launched a very successful member- ship drive, which featured a hike to Mt. Toby sponsored by the W.A.A. and mem- bers of the faculty club, Metawampee. In preparation for weekend trips, Mr. Basil Wood spoke to the club members on camping equipment, incorporating useful illustrations into his talk. After showing the group astronomic maps, Mr. Lanphear took them star-gazing, telling the mythological histories of stars, plan- ets, and constellations. Among the most memorable hikes is one to Mt. Warner. After a tedious trip, the hikers finally reached The Rock at its summit. which, it is believed, was carried down from Mt. Toby during the glacial age and deposited on the summit of Mt. Warner. Other favorites were mystery hikes and a breakfast hike. Winter activities in- cluded skating, skiing, and square danc- ing. The officers were : Fernand Bartlett ' 46, president; Joanne Freelander ' 46, Secre- tary; Marie Diaz ' 48, Treasurer; Pat Jennings ' 45, and Helen Timson ' 46, Co-chairmen of the membership com- mittee; Frances Gillotti ' 45, and Ginny Tripp ' 45, Co-chairman of the activities committee, and Anne Merrill ' 46, chair- man of the student-faculty committee. 4-H Club Under the capable leadership of Presi- dent Mary Milner ' 45, Vice-President Jack Blalock ' 46, Treasurer Claire Healy ' 46, and Secretary Betty Boyd ' 45, the 4-H Club members have kept their pledge of working with head, heart, hand, and health. Two delegates were sent as representa- tives to the Youth Section Annual Con- ference of the American Country Life Association at Fredonia, New York. The results of the conference were discussed at the November meeting of the club. At the first meeting of the year, at which Mr. Alton, 4-H field secretary of the Northeastern States, was the guest speaker, the freshman initiation took place. Besides this, there were regular monthly meetings which featured ski movies, sleigh rides, sings, and radio programs broadcasted over WBZA, pre- senting news of the campus club activi- ties and its co-operation with various other projects in the country. In addition to its many other activities, the 4-H Club under the management of Executive Committee Chairman, Mary Alice Cande ' 47 and Recreation Chairman Pat Jennings ' 45, acted as hosts to the 4-H All Stars annual meeting and spon- sored square dances in co-operation with the Outing Club. 65 Handbook This year, the Freshman Handbook — more familiarly known as the Frosh Bible — was published under the aus- pices of the Student Christian Associa- tion, W.S.G.A , and the Senate. Members of the S.C.A. competed for positions on the editorial board, which was organized as follows: Marjorie Brett ' 46, editor-in-chief; Helen Timson ' 46, assistant editor; Ruby Almgren ' 47, Lillian Brochu ' 47, Barbara Beales ' 47, Pat Kenyon ' 45, Nancy Newell ' 45, Mar- garet O ' Hagerty ' 46, Rosemary Speer ' 47, and Lucie Zwisler ' 46. The following business board was appointed by the Senate: Hyman Hershman ' 45, manager; Jim Reed, Jim Henchey, and Bill Cour- chene, all of the class of ' 47. Rev. W. Burnet Easton was faculty adviser to the group. Although these boards were limited financially and had to conserve materials in compliance with the war effort, they succeeded in giving entering freshmen the Handbook which serves as a guide to the customs and traditions of Massachu- setts State College. It includes a map of campus, descriptions of religious and so- cial activities, student government, aca- demic activities, sports, and a section devoted to college songs — all of them a helpful introduction to life at Mass. State. Home Ec Club This year, the Home Economics Club has not been content to confine its ac- tivities to the campus alone. Recently, all the Home Economics clubs in the State have been organized, and we have one of our own members, Virginia Mears, as president of this affiliation of the clubs in Massachusetts. In April, the meeting of the State organization was held here on the campus. Mrs. Sarah Coolidge, a member of the Home Economics Department, is the fac- ulty adviser for the club. The officers are as follows: President, Norma Penning- ton; Vice-President, Carolyn Whitmore; Secretary, Mary Petersen; Treasurer, Lucie Zwisler; Program Chairman, Peggy Merritt; and Publicity Chairman, Jean Lindsey. The purpose of the club is to unite all the Home Economics majors and to present to them the wide and varied voca- tional opportimities in this work. The Danforth Scholarships are awarded each year in the form of a two-weeks visit in St. Louis and a two-week period at Camp Minnewonka, Wisconsin for a junior and two weeks at Camp Minne- wonka for a freshman. The Club has been extremely active during the year with war work, aiding in hospitals and the Nursery School. D After a year ' s interruption of inter- collegiate football, Mass. State once again found itself delving superficially into the excitement and thrills of the pig- skin extravaganza. Inspired by the spirit of a handful of freshman students, the Phys. Ed. Department at State was obliged to set up some form of intramural football. Because of the fact that the boys had no opportunity for the physical condition- ing, practiced as part of regular peace time schedules, it was wisely decided that a form of six man football be played. From the twenty-five players who re- ported at practice sessions, four teams were formed — three consisting of MSC students and one consisting entirely of Stockbridge lads. These youthful football aspirants were ably instructed in football technique by Fred Streeter, Joe Kunces, and Rube Allen. Of the four six man squads, two were vastly superior. One of these was cap- tained by Dick Lee, a well-built backfield inspiration from Worcester North High School; and the other by a tall heavy-set lad likewise from the Worcester district, named Bob Gray. These two captains dominated the game, but were closely rivalled for playing honors by Al Goring. Although informal six man football faced increased opposition, and hard luck (in the way of injuries), it nevertheless continued down to the very last day. The fact that there was such indomitable spirit is proof enough that, when once again inter-collegiate football activity is resumed, Mass. State will be in a posi- tion to engage in pigskin rivalries. The M.S.C. Informals of 1945, led by Coach Fred Streeter, completed a success- ful season, winning four and losing three. Despite the loss of many talented players to the Armed Forces at the start of the season, Coach Streeter was able to mold a winning five. Opening the season against a veteran Amherst High team, the M.S.C. hoop- sters were defeated 46-31. Fine offensive was played by Dick Lee, who scored 18 points and who continued his record until he joined the Army. Improving tremendously over their first game, the Informals easily defeated the Williston seconds 38-19. In their third game of the season, the Streetermen chalked up a very impressive victory, defeating Deeriield High 36-27 Facing worthy opposition in the clever Deerfield Academy J.V. ' s, the M.S.C. Informals were overwhelmed 57-27. Playing their top game of the season, the Mass. State quintet fell before the hands of Lord Jeff 44-37. Behind in points from start to finish, the Informals put on their best basketball exhibition of the season in a vain attempt to overtake the Amherst College five. Coach Streeter, who made his first appearance of the sea- son as a regular playing member, played an extremely fine game, as did Lee, Push- ee, Allen, and Swanson. Next State defeated the Williston sec- onds 40-22, and nosed out the same Deer- field Academy team it had previously lost to, 30-29. The season was a tribute to the players, and to Coach Streeter in his first debut in collegiate circles. 69 The 1944 swimming season had almost been considered a forgotten thing, when a group of eager freshmen, coached by Bill Stowe, decided they wanted some in- formal competition. In the opening meet of this informal season, the inexperienced Frosh team was defeated 52-13, by Joe Rogers and his Amherst High School natators. Neverthe- less, the meet revealed six promising stars, John White, Jim Marshall, Jim Falvey, Hy Edelstein, Norton Nicker- son, and Julian Malkiel. Determination and intensive practice were the keynotes in the Frosh ' s next event. Engaging a small, but highly tal- ented group of swimmers from St. Mich- ael ' s High School, the Informal swimmers came out on top by the score of 37-29. Highlighting this win was John White, who garnered first in both the 50- and 100-yard free style, and was instrumental in helping the relay team win the 150- yard medley relay event. In the closing meet of the season, the Frosh bowed to a superior Amherst High team, 45-20, but not without showing that they had improved tremendously since the first meet of the season. Outstanding in the freshman team were John White, the finest swimmer on the squad; Jim Marshall and Norton Nicker- son, the one-two combination in the backstroke; Jim Falvey and Walter Tarber in the breast stroke; Hy Edle- stein, Ralph Fishman, and Julian Malkiel in the free style; Bucky Buchanan, a Stockbridge lad who placed well in the diving events; and finally, hard-working Coach Bill Stowe. 70 If I lo ,k sad rt ' s only because I use a.3(o , instaaj ot this 32  ch b ih The baseball team proved to follow the same informal lines as the other teams. However, as the season progressed, Coach Briggs ' squad developed into a clever, smooth-working nine. In the first game of the season, the untried Informals faced the Deerfield Academy J.V. ' s, coached by former Stockbridge mentor, Red Ball. In this game, the Statesmen, though hampered by sloppy fielding, were able to edge out the Deerfield lads in extra innings, 10-9. In their second start the Informals dropped a close 2-0 verdict to a poten- tially strong Amherst High team. This second tilt revealed steady improvement in the fielding and pitching departments, and had it not been for weak hitting in the clutches, the Informals might have been credited with a victory in- stead of a loss to their town neighbor. Improving decisively over their first two starts, the Informals ended the sea- son by defeating the same Deerfield team, 9-3. This last tilt featured home runs by the one-two combination of catcher, George Pushee and pitcher, Dick Swan. Thus, a fairly successful season of two wins and one defeat was ended. Instrumental in the team ' s success were Saul Smoller; 300 hitter and excel- lent first sacker; the keystone combina- tion of Jim Coffey and Bob Monroe; George Epstein, Cy Applebaum, Jerry Casper, Hal Leen, and Jim Marshall, four defensively adept outfielders ; George Pushee, stubby backstop equipped with a potent bat; and finally, two very good pitchers in the names of Henry Jantz and Dick Swan. 71 W. A. A. This year, the Women ' s Athletic Asso- ciation expanded to an unprecedented degree of prominence on campus. The officers of the W.A.A. Council were Lois Litz ' 45, president; Phyllis Hyatt ' 45, vice-president; and Anne Tilton ' 46, secretary. The Council, consisting of the officers and the managers of the various activities, held monthly meetings in the Drill Hall. Among the sportlights of the year was the annual hockey game between coeds and faculty members. This fall, the score was 3-0, in favor of the faculty. The faculty team was composed of Mr. Schoonmaker, captain; Larry Briggs, Dr. Gamble, Dr. Woodside, Prof. Korson, Mr. Powers, Dr. W. Ross, Dr. Sproston, Prof. Tuttle, Mrs. Speer, Miss Winsberg, and Mr. Easton. The coed team was com- posed of Lois Litz, Ruth Ewing, both 45 ' ers; Mary Peterson, Lois Russell, Dorothy Jonson, Dorothy Hurlock, Lois Banister, all of the class of ' 46; Ruth Kline, Helen Thatcher, Sally Swift, Mary Alice Cande, Evelyn Pires, Ruth Don- nelly, and Jean Cummings, of ' 47; and members of the class of ' 48, Edith Pol, Regina McDonough, and Martha McAfee. Referees for this game were Barbara Ireland, Hurlock, Whitmore, Washburn, Jennings, Lambert, Freelander, Gould Ewing, Bird, Litz, Hyatt, Murray, Dellea ■j PV1 n PW jjj l B «i Ww r r WL 1 ■e li l Pi ■S— m mk 1 ' ' 1 N ■l - iji i j I SL • ' 1 Ki 7 I H p |,r:J r iH 72 Huff, Hurlock, P.

Baldwin Stacey, Sellew, Rockwood, Gagne, Gould, Lerer Korson, Hevman Cole ' 47 and Miss Winifred Schoenleber. Besides the student -faculty game, several interclass, interhouse. and intersorority games were played, by the arrange- ment of Barbara Cole ' 47. Lois Litz was champion of the tennis tournament between houses and sorori- ties, which was managed by Barbara Bird. A new development in volley ball was the forming of twenty mixed teams, composed of students, faculty, and A.S.- T.R.P. ' s. These twenty teams engaged in a lively competition which lasted many weeks. Kay Dellea ' 45 was volley ball manager. Basketball tournaments were held under the management of Jean ( Jidge ) Gould ' 46. Lucille Chaput ' 45 managed the badminton tournament, which took place during the winter. Ruth Ewing ' 45 was in charge of the archery tournaments; Mary Ireland ' 46, of Softball, and Betty Washburn ' 46, of speedball. Hiking was added to the W.A.A. curriculum, and Pat Jennings ' 45 managed efficiently the long hikes undertaken by students on crisp morn- ings. The Modern Dance Club, headed by Ruth Murray ' 45 gave an exhibition of modern dance for the freshman girls. To stimulate further the interest of modern dance fans, a recital by Carmen Rooker was presented in the fall, to the enjoy- ment of the large audience. Members of the Club also assisted in the performance of Hansel and Gretel. All freshman girls participated in the annual Freshman Play Day, one of the most popular events in the Club curricu- lum. arious games were organized during the program, which took place during the first week of the fall semester. Besides the Freshman Play Day, one general program was held for all students. 73 faculty members, and A.S.T.R.P. stu- dents. Tennis, volley ball, hockey, out- door basketball, and Softball were played; afterwards, entertainment and refresh- ments were provided. The Naiads, the girls ' swimming club, provided practice in one of the most popular sports of the 1944-45 season. Carolyn Whitmore ' 46 was senior presi- dent; Phyl Houran ' 47, junior president; Jidge Gould ' 46, senior secretary; Lois Banister ' 46, treasurer; Dot Hurlock ' 46, junior secretary; and Helen Stanley ' 48, treasurer. On December 15, an interclass swim meet took place. Relays, speed swimming, and free style swimming were included. Both members and non-members of the Naiads who met the requirements for the minimum number of practices, were eligible for the telegraphic meet in March, in the pool of the Phys. Ed. Building. Eight periods of practice were required before March. The meet included a med- ley relay, an individual medley, and a forty-yard dash in the crawl. At Winter Carnival, on February 10, the Naiads presented a water ballet to musical accompaniment. Among the form- ations were wheels, stars, and letter groups, including an M for Massachu- setts. Unique in its arrangement was a cleverly executed square dance in the water. The annual banquet was held on April 4, when the present managers turned over their positions to those elected to lead their respective sports the next year. Awards were made to girls who had been outstanding in athletics. The evening included an entertainment and commun- ity singing. The new council left with plans for a bigger and better Play Day next fall. 74 ] D Chi Omega Iota Beta Chapter 315 Lincoln Ave. Local Founded in 1941 Colors: Cardinal and Straw Publications: The Eleiisis and The Bul- letin OFFICERS President: Nancy Sullivan Vice-President: Barbara Collins Recording Secretary: Ruth Steele Corresponding Secretary: Phyllis Tuttle Treasurer: Ruth Reynolds 1945: Lucille Chaput, Virginia Clark, Barbara Collins, Margaret Ogden Cowing, Jean Decker, Ruth Ening, Rose Grant, Lois Litz, Helen Petersen, Nancy Sullivan, Rosemary Walsh. 1946: Betsy Atwood, Daphne Cullinan, Janet Grayson, Frances Johnston, Genevieve Lecarzyk, Jeanne Lindsey, Marion McCarthy, Anne Merrill, Mary Petersen, Ruth RejTiolds, Jerry Shea, Jean Spettigue, Ruth Steele, Hazel Traquair, Phyllis Tuttle. 1947: Doris Anderson, Carol Bateman, Lorna Calvert, Barbara Dower, Natalie Emerson, Donna Graves, Marjorie Hall, Beth Davis Lovewell, Virginia Minahan, Dorothy Morton, Alice Oleaga, Fern Proctor, Geraldine Smith, Genevieve Todd. 1948: Romaine Ash, Claire Commo, Phyllis Cooley, Ann Crotty, Marion Day, Barbarajune Fisher, Elva Forester, Elizabeth Gilbertson, Flor- ence Healy, Doris Kennedy, Ann Keough, Jean Lee, Alice McNally, Jeanne Rheaume, Ann Sizer, Helen Stanley, Constance Stephens, Marjorie Terry, Marcia VanMeter.

At the first mass meeting, the following officers were elected: Lester Giles ' 47, chairman; Janet Bemis ' 46, clerk; Jason Kirshen ' 46, publicity manager. Class representatives, elected at the same meet- ing, are Carol Goodchild, senior; Roger Richards, junior; Phoebe Wood, sopho- more; and Leonard O ' Connor, freshman. At the second meeting, a constitution was ratified, and the following social com- mittee was appointed: Irmarie Scheune- man ' 45 and Ruth Felstiner ' 46, co-chair- men; and Natalie Kettleman ' 47, Chet Falby ' 48, Don Fowler ' 48, and Elliot Swartz ' 48. The following advisers were chosen at the same time: Dr. Frank Moh- ler of the history department, Dr. William H. Ross of the physics department, and Miss Ruth Totman of the women ' s physi- cal education department. The officers and class representatives will work with the advisers as the executive board of the Independents. Previous attempts to organize represen- tation for non-affiliated students had failed because of the limited number of such students. As a result of the present inactivity of the fraternities, however, and the increase of the women student body to a number too great to be ab- sorbed into the sororities, there are on the campus over two hundred students not affiliated with sororities or fraternities. For these, the need for such a focal organ- ization as the Independents was brought to general attention particularly by Pat Jennings ' 45, to whom the organization owes, to a large extent, its emergence at this opportune time.
