An attempt was made to present in a striking manner a picturization of that active reformer. Ulrich Zwingli. founder of the Reformed Church, and of the student and thinker who followed him a generation later. Zacharias Ursinus. after whom the college was named. It was not the intention of the editors to deal entirely with the historic past, however, but to combine the vestiges of tradition with the reality of the present so that they might blend into one harmonious picture, realistically depicting the complete “Spirit of Ursinus” within the covers of a single volume. The lly-leaf shows Zwingli leading his men into a religious war against his Catholic foes from the mountain cantons in the famous battle of Capclle in which this ardent reformer laid down his life. Underneath. I he Rights of Reason Must be Respected.” the words uttered by Zwingli at the start of his fatal mission. The major division pages are taken from important incidents in the life of the Reformer. The Campus divisional page depicts Zwinglis childhood days in the fastness of the Alps; Classes, portrays his studious preparation for the ministry at the University of Basle; Administration, shows Zwingli preaching before his beloved congregation at Zurich; Organizations, reveals Zwingli in the heart of his disputation with Luther at the famous Marburg meeting; Activities, gives a glimpse of his energetic work on the battlefield, while Athletics, vividly portrays the forceful side of Zwingli s nature in battle. The Feature divisional page reveals Ursinus busy composing his great Heidelberg Catechism, with the spirit and ideals of his predecessor guiding his work. I he theme is not exclusively devoted to these early men of the church and in the dedication, foreword, and contents pages portraits of four presidents of Ursinus. representing four epochs in the development of the college are given. I hese are. respectively. Presidents Bombcrgcr. Spangler. Keigwin. and Omwake. I hus modernized, the thematic scheme continues with a frontispiece depicting the vocational preparations provided here in college, while in the background looms a phantom bear as the urge to greater heights. I he Senior section shows the present academic and athletic activities of the students, while bordering the Pages is a head and tail-piece giving the college motto at the top of the page and a portrait of Ursinus at the bottom. I ll) President’s Message T(N certain important respects Zwingli and Ursinus lived in a period not unlike 'S that in which we live. Theirs was a time of transition. Life required many readjustments. Social problems of immense importance had to be solved. Science and invention were transforming the ways of life. It was an age of opportunity. Contemporary with them we find an exceptionally large number of names on the world’s roll of fame. Men should ever be alive to the opportunities offered by such an era. From these heroes of the Reformation are handed down certain virtues which the youth of our day may well accept. First, was their desire to know the truth. Both were indefatigable students. They improved their opportunities as university men. They went to the sources of knowledge and became authorities in whom their contemporaries and their successors had confidence. They wrote and spoke as men who knew. A second trait revealed in these men is unreserved consecration. They were devoted souls. In Zwingli. especially, we see the spirit of the ancient Hebrew prophet. He made a single ideal of love for God and love for country. In him. patriotism and religion were closely bound together. Service to his country had in it the same quality of sincerity that was inherent in his service to God. He died on the field of battle, but in his death was the essence of martyrdom. While Zwingli was a parish preacher and civic leader. Ursinus was a university professor. As such he is of special interest to college students. His very face, imperfectly depicted on the seal of Ursinus College, reflects keen intelligence and refined feeling. In a large, closely printed volume full of marginal notes and references. D. Henrie Parrie presented in Fnglish in 1611. the lectures delivered in Latin at 1 leidelberg by Zacharias Ursinus on the Catechism. To this volume Parrie gave the title. “The Summe of Christian Religion. The work is a monument to the ability and patience of the translator, but pre-eminently so to the painstaking research, the depth of understanding, and the logical mental processes of the author. I he purpose of the translator, however, as expressed in his preface, was not to reveal or to demonstrate scholarship, but to present to the clergy of England a type of religion which would pul to shame the secular and immoral life of English churchmen. We have exemplified here a third ideal that of contagious piety. from these great leaders there comes down across the centuries to us the message that we. in the spirit of genuine scholarship, seek the truth with unreserved consecration and that we make it effective among present and future generations by reason of that vital, evangelizing piety which is the natural fruit of the Christian religion.

Resident Nurse The health of the student is a matter of great im| ortancc to the students themselves and to the college as a whole. Consequently this very important phase of the college administration is ably taken care of by a health department of which Dr. John B. Price, a graduate of Ursinus and prominent physician of Norristown, is the head. Doctor Price has office hours on the campus certain days of the week and may be summoned from Norristown at any time. In addition, there is a resident nurse. Miss Mayberry, a graduate of I lahnemann. who is constantly on the campus and available at a moment’s notice. Physical examinations arc required of all new students and upper classmen as well. The college has provided two infirmaries, one for the boys located in Derr Hall and one for the girls in Maples. In this way the ill students arc given the best of medical attention and at the same time they are isolated from the student laxly, thus avoiding the spread of any con lagious disease which might arise. •( 46 } Former Members Class of 1930 Mildred Alderfer Ralph Anderson Miles Bower Marion Bowen John Brendi e William Cain Albert Callie James Carr Paul Ciierin Edna Coles Vance Cunningham David Danetz Polly Dotterer Clarence Ergood Sarah Faust Marjorie Fisher Lester Fort ( hari.es Freund Verna Gandy Ev a Grater Bernice Greenig Marian Gross Lawrence Guth Alan I I a as Curtis Heebner Fzra Hitchcock Athena Johnson Marcus Jones Toivo Karpinnen Charles Kirby Clarence Koch David Kuntz Samuel Kurtz Emma Larson Emma Leo John Lesher John Mansure William May Agnes Mertz LeRoy Moffitt Emma Odenwelder Miriam Peters Alice Poley William Powell Janet Price Willard Rieff Malcolm Richmond Girard Rickards Sydney Rosenberg Blanche Rubright George Schmeltzer George Smith Eugene Smith Ethel Swain Florence Taylor Florence Tomlinson Robert Wakelee David Warner 4 48 Seniors I 49 }• President Vice-President Secretary 1'reasurcr Class Officers John Riordan Dorothy Beck Catherine Witman John M.

Merely an enumeration of victories and failures in the academic and extracurricular life? Ah. these years have a deeper, richer meaning. They represent an inward growth and development among us as individuals. unity as a class, and ever-increasing loyalty to our college. 1 hey arc the fulfillment of a hope and the beginning of a new life. Our apprenticeship is over; we arc now master workmen in our professions. This rank develops upon us responsibilities which it is our duty to perform. To enumerate a list of the successes and disappointments of our class seems futile and trite in this connection. The events of our college life have had a different meaning and have been regarded with varying degrees of importance by us individually. As a class, the tug-of-war. the freshman Banquet, the Junior Prom, and the Junior Class Play stand out more vividly in our memories. We have come to the last chapter in the second part of the Book of Life. What will the succeeding pages bring? At commencement we separate never to meet again as an unbroken class, but may we ever be united in spirit and loyalty to our dear Alma Mater. Ursinus. •{51 J. HENRY HI ESTER ALDEN Warren.

Raye is always in demand and she's one of the most sporting girls we know. There’s nothing too little or too big to ask of her. Whether its accompanying the Glee Club, presiding at the organ in chapel, or just playing for the girls at Fircroft. she's always willing and dependable. As hall president she exercised her duties with fairness and efficiency. In spite of handicaps in her senior year, Raye has never swerved from her standards of high scholarship. { 53 1- ALFONSO J.

We are now upper classmen and upon us are the added responsibilities and respect which we have looked forward to throughout our years as under classmen. We have successfully crossed the deadline that decides our fate in this four-year game of college. We can now look backward with self-satisfaction and determine our future policies on a background of the past. As we look back over the past two years we are able to survey our part in the field of school activities. We find that in athletics we have been strong and have contributed a major part of the various teams. In football Junior members made up a large number of the stars of the season and were nearly a complete varsity team of themselves. In basketball and baseball similar occurrences may be cited. Stani.kv Omxvakk. I’re . We have also been active in social events. We have entered into the spirit of the various organizations musical, literary, dramatic, and scientific and have lent them our earnest endeavors. All class undertakings such as banquets, rings, and pictures have been conducted with co-operation and efficiency. The various publications have been run with remarkable success. We have proved that to insure the success of an undertaking each individual must forget his immediate ends in favor of the group project. The class of 1931. realizing the many successes of the first two years and the sincere co-operation of its members in the participation thereof, entered its Junior year with an optimistic and hopeful attitude toward its remaining years. We expect to be able after our four-year record is completed to look back with a feeling of satisfaction and the realization that although we made some minor mistakes, they were far overbalanced by the successes and accomplishments that were made. 1 165 }• Class Roll Kenneth N.

Drexel 1 fill, and on the college campus. Although the Sophs beat us in football, the victorious outcome of our hockey and basketball rivalries is a true index of our glorious year of achievements. Proud of our record as the Freshman Class of '32. after a prosperous summer we eagerly returned to the time-worn halls and velvety vistas of dear old U” impatient to show the world what the Sophomore Class of '32 could do. And we did it! Undaunted by the loss of a trivial tug-of-war. for which the 5-0 victory in Frosh-Soph hockey was ample recompense, not to mention the 6-0 football victory, we have justly upheld our class prowess. We have been writing an enviable record of outstanding achievements in every line of curricular and extra-curricular activities in the annals of our Alma Mater, to whose honor and glory we pledge the best that is in us forever. 4 171 Class Roll Richard S.

The plot is based on the perennial conflict between Youth and Old Age. with the mutual disbelief in each others’ theories. A hard-headed, irascible old business man. aroused by the jibes of his son. who claims to be able to run a business and still smile, upon the advice of his business partner, turns his business over to his debonair son as a test to the latter's never-failing good humor. As the time passes a change comes over the two men. they seem to trade natures, the older becoming more pleasant and the younger more irritable. Finally the son loses the affection of his fiancee, admits defeat, and becomes engaged to his father’s housekeeper, with whom he has fallen in love. I he roles of father and son in “New Brooms” were taken by William McGarvcy and Frank Rohrbaugh. both of whom starred in the play. Margaret Johnson played the part of the housekeeper and I lenry Alden the part of the business partner. Beatrice Kline portrayed the part of the disgruntled and deserted fiancee, while Ann Murray and Sherwood Peters added to a delightful subplot. 190 1- President Vice-President Secretary I rcasurcr The Dramatic Club OPPJCERS William McGarvey Ann Murray I Ielen Green James Donaldson |T 0 all who arc interested in the amateur stage and theatricals, the Dramatic Club offers an excellent opportunity for an outlet of talent.

In no way disheartened, however, by the abandonment of its intercollegiate schedule, the Women’s Debating Club took over a major portion of the girls’ activities and enjoyed a very prosperous season. Meetings were held semi-monthly and all members were given an opportunity to participate in debates. Extemporaneous as well as formally prepared speeches were tried with equally successful results.

That night the Thompson-Gay Gymnasium ceased to be a gymnasium; it was a wonderful fairy garden filled with the flowers of happiness and tinged with the magic of fairies themselves. Within this garden, surrounded by its flower-covered and trellised wall, the dancers swayed to and fro to the syncopated strains of Harvey Marberger and his orchestra. Even the elements were in keeping with this fairy scene, by granting a lovely warm spring evening, with a silvery May moon smilingly surveying all. A feeling of entrancement seemed to fall upon the dancers as they entered the garden through its gleaming white gate and trellised archway. 1 he high gray stone wall covered with its vines and flowers enclosed them in a realm of pure enjoyment and delight. The holly-hocks nodding along the wall seemed to whisper to the other flowers their delight in seeing happiness reign. Probably the most impressive part of the evening was the actual promenade led by the Junior Class president, and eagerly participated in by all. As the strains of the last dance glided softly away into the “wee small hours, it was with a feeling of perfect pleasure that the dancers wended their way out through the trellised gateway from the realm of the fairy bower to the realm of reality once more.

The Women's Dormitory Committee, ably guided by Ella Haines, succeeded in taking another step toward the goal of the organization, the erection of a dormitory for women. An attempt was made at vocational guidance and the Citizenship Committee, with l lorence Benjamin as chairman, co-operated with Dr. White, ascertained various fields in which there was interest, gathered information on them and made it available. s m kk s. pi. 207 Yost Alexander Fra like Winner Wernci IXnny Samlu Ekk - Meyer Kochenrlerfer Tlioiui on Tra uiccr Sclikitcl The Y.

The Y meets regularly every Wednesday evening, at which time there is a devotional service, followed by a discussion or by a talk given by a faculty member or outside speaker. Once every month the Y holds a joint meeting with the Y. W. C. A. It holds smokers and other events to promote good fellowship and sportsmanship among the men. During the past year, the Ursinus Y. M.

The methods of the organization change with the times, but always it has before it the purpose of nurturing the full and well-rounded personality with a serious attempt to prevent the atrophying of any of its essential elements. The Y. W. C. A. holds its meetings every Wednesday night. They arc conducted by the students and consist of talks by outside speakers and the students themselves. About once a month the Y. W. combines with the men’s organization in a joint meeting. In addition to these regular meetings there are also a number of auxiliary functions which the organization serves. I he need of an inspirational gathering of some sort has resulted in the presentation of a vesper service in Bomberger Hall every Sunday afternoon. canski..

Its first step was to have the Y. W. room in the Library opened for an hour during each evening in the week to permit dancing and to afford a place of recreation where all may gather under proper conditions. I he committee is composed of the following persons: President Omwakc: three members fiom the faculty. Dr. White, Dr. Barnard, and Professor Brownback; two members from the Women’s Student Council. Katherine Sanderson and Gladys Barnes: two members from the Men's Student Council. Horace Werner and Scott C overt, and two members from the Board of Control, Eleanor Usingcr and William McGarvcy. THE BROTHERHOOD OF ST. PAUL I he Brotherhood of St. Paul is an organization composed entirely of those students who arc preparing themselves for the Christian ministry. Its work consists principally in discussing religious problems of the day and providing a suitable means of contact for all those having common interests at heart. I he president this year was John M. Witmer. INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS CLUB This club was formed to provide a common ground of discussion for all those interested in the extremely fascinating, yet intensely important field of international relations and diplomacy. Papers arc read and comments made on important international topics of the day. BIOLOGY CLUB The Biology Club, as its name suggests, is composed of students having biology as their major interest. Papers are read, speakers engaged, and discussions held on questions relating to this science. 4 210} F raternities 1211 1- Fraternities rf'RATFRNITY life, when rightly organized and conducted, is an essential to the complete fulfillment of any man’s college career. The rapid and spasmodic development of this life within the last year has begun to set and crystallize, now that the uniqueness of a new situation has been outgrown, and the organizations are beginning to realize and respond to the duties and obligations which their presence here rightly engenders. It is. as yet. too early to make any predictions as to what these social newcomers on the campus are going to accomplish, but we do feel that the entire-social tenor of Ursinus will undergo a very definite change. Whether there will be a change in the esprit de corps of the institution is a question also awaiting the solution of time. The need of a central administering body has been met by the organization of an Interfraternity Council to regulate all joint activities, to adjudicate all disputes and to act in many advisory capacities. I his organization is so situated as to be capable of much good in the maintenance of proper relationship and upon its procedure and policies will depend, to a very large extent, the success of this latest social experiment at Ursinus.

Men's Athletic' V. V. Bancroft Grailuatr Manager. Athletics Eastern Intercollegiate Athletic Conference Tl IE Eastern Pennsylvania Intercollegiate Athletic Conference is composed of five colleges of practically the same size which have united to promote and encourage cleaner athletics and reduce to a minimum the commercialization of athletes. The colleges now in the Conference are: Ursinus. Gettysburg Franklin and Marshall. Muhlenberg, and Dickinson. Each college is represented at the meetings of the Conference by members of the faculty or athletic board of their respective institution. Ursinus is ably represented by Doctor Clawson and Professor Bancroft. Graduate Manager of Athletics. Under the existing rules of the association, freshmen are barred from intercollegiate competition. Although a handicap at first, this rule has since aided in developing yearling teams which in turn have contributed largely in the success of the varsity teams in future seasons. A definite limit has also been placed on the amount and number of scholarships which may be offered to incoming athletes. I 1 223 1.

More might have been expected considering the mateiial ready for active service, but no Ursinusite need bow his head when recalling the final results of two wins, four losses, and three ties. All games were played with colleges in the same class, but no game can in any way have been termed a set-up for the fighting Grizzlies. The line, which was probably the best Ursinus has ever had. was outstanding throughout the season. In competition the team showed great defensive strength, that department of its game standing out above the offense. Until the last half of the season the latter department was weak and lacked scoring punch. Kvery player on the team is deserving of the highest praise and it is offered knowing that every man gave his best. EASTERN CONEERENCE STANDING Team Won Lost Tied Pis. Opp. Pis.

Ursinus Grizzlies opened the 1929 season on the home field against Dickinson. The Bears had the edge throughout the fray until in the final quarter Dickinson recovered a blocked punt which paved the way for a touchdown and tie score. 6-6. In the second game of the season against Haverford. Ursinus played well defensively, holding a strong Main Line team scoreless; the Bears at the same time were unable to chalk up points necessary for a win. After the Delaware fracas which came next, three ties were the tabular results. In spite of a strong showing in midfield. Ursinus was unable to score. Handicapped by penalties and injuries, a strong line repeatedly shoved back the Mud-I lens for losses. Again the teams were deadlocked. 0-0. 1 230 The annual battle with Franklin and Marshall turned into the first defeat of the season and the first defeat by Franklin and Marshall in four years. Playing against a line-up which was out for blood from the start. Ursinus repeatedly turned back the enemy offense until exhausted in the final quarter by repeated entries into the game of fresh material from the opposing bench. I he Bears cracked and allowed the Roses to cross the goal line for three tallies, in the closing minutes of play. A victory over Muhlenberg is always sweet. After playing on the short end of a 7-2 score during the major part of the game, an intercepted pass, followed by a brilliant run by Sterner, cinched the victory. 9-7. Against Rutgers. Ursinus played a thrilling uphill battle, which ended only with the final whistle. Ursinus scoring was done by the aerial route. Rutgers, however, had too great a lead and the final result was credited in favor of the New Brunswick aggregation. 19-15. The next week Ursinus entertained Susquehanna in a dull game, although the result was favorable to the home boys. The Bears showed strength, but seemed to be saving up for Swarthmore. Substitutions were numerous. Sterner’s long run paved the way for the 6-0 victory. The Swarthmore game was the real high point of the season. Defeated by a lone point made after touchdown by a Garnet kicker, the result could in no way reflect the brilliant and gallant playing of a well articulated Ursinus machine. The final game with Albright proved to be a disappointment to Ursinus backers. Nevertheless, the team presented a brilliant passing attack and fought for every inch of ground which had to be yielded.

Review of 1928-29 Basketball Season ■f'HIE, fortunes of war or of basketball sometimes arc contrary to the wishes of those who arc backers of the vanquished. This was true of the 1928-29 basketballcrs of Ursinus. The men on the team doubtless gave of their best, but since their best was not good enough, none can hope but that the future will give opportunity for revenge. Three wins and twelve losses was the record made at the cage game during the above-mentioned season. This was the result after Ursinus cagcmen had battled some of the best teams in the East, losing to Penn and Princeton in closely contested matches on foreign floors. I he season was brought to a premature close by the quarantine placed upon the college by state health officers just when it seemed that the team should get a break and turn in a few wins. Victories were scored over Osteopathy, Lafayette, and Schuylkill on the home court, but abroad it seemed that the Bears just could not hit their stride. Some satisfaction was felt over the outcome of the Schuylkill affair in view of the fact that a win in basketball helped wipe out the stigma of defeat on the gridiron. Return contests were held with Temple and franklin and Marshall. All efforts to even matters, however, were of no avail. A return engagement with Bucknell had to be cancelled, as well as games with Villanova. Susquehanna, and Lebanon Valley. {237} Schell 1‘aninak Edwards Stm-iuli Faux Bcrjwr Lehman Frick Smith Wenner Eachus Mailman Weis Sumptman Amlenson 1929-30 Freshman Basketball Team Coach Manager Ray Schell Russell Benner 1928-29 Frosh Season IK Yearling baskctballcrs started strongly and seemed to show great promise for future Ursinus basketball when they fought well against Penn and 1 hll School.

Ursinus held a real old-fashioned slug-fest for St. Joe's, rubbing it in to the tune of 12-4. There followed losses to Muhlenberg and Lebanon Valley. I hen the boys walked away with St. Joe’s a second time. 9-2. On the annual tour of Central Pennsylvania, one win was had at Albright's expense, but two tilts were dropped to Buckncll and Susquehanna. Not satisfied with these results, the Bears turned on Schuylkill and Swarth-morc. but were unable to match Juniata in a ten-inning 2-3 decision. I he last game of the season, won at the expense of Gettysburg, was a decisive affair, the final score standing. 8-2. Hitting on the whole was good, nine players turning in averages above two hundred. Young led in the slugging with an average of .444. while second honors went to Francis with .333. These two hickory swingers were the only ones fortunate enough to exceed the .300 mark. None of the games lost were dropped by more than two runs, showing that the club was in there every minute with eyes open. The record is also a tribute to the pitching staff of whom Strine.

Coach Girls' Athletics OT so long ago it was the fashion for college girls to chase a croquet ball J'A around on some safe part of the campus or for really violent exercise (which it must have been considering the yards of swaddling skirts) one could strive to connect a racquet with a tennis ball. But energy, demanding a more satisfying outlet, more sports and shorter skirts gradually appeared, until now each season has its particular brand of athletics. To Miss Helen Errett, the present coach of Women’s Athletics, belongs the credit for having introduced and organized a number of the newer sports. Miss Errett's versatility in the gym. major and minor sports, dancing and pageantry, has provided a source of ever-enjoyable pleasure to the women students. No college girl, and especially no Ursinus girl, considers her activities complete unless she is able to participate in some sport. With a campus so ideally situated and arranged for any sport, it is but natural that athletics should occupy the important place that they have been given. The games are of one stamp clean and whole-hearted fun and splendid team work. The high ideals of the founders of Ursinus who sought to build true men and women are as integral a part of the athletic code as the academic life. Every Ursinus woman keeps before her one aim—that of true sportsmanship. { 252 } Women’s Athletic Association President ....... Evelyn Lake Vicc-Prcsidcnt ...... Anne Conner Secretary ..... Margaret Swartz Treasurer ...... Clara Riley jfrOR many years the Women s Athletic Association, like the Woman's Stu-dent Government Association, had been composed of all the women students of the college. However, a change has been made, admitting as members to the Association only those who have shown sufficient interest and ability in athletics to win a certain number of points under the rules of the new Points System. This limitation has made a stronger body with a common basis for representative direction of athletics. According to the new Points System, as formulated by the Council of the Association, each sport receives a number of points according to its relative value. Awards are made for various achievements. This system forms also the chief means of selecting the winner of the Junior blazer. I he girl who receives it is chosen by the Council and the Coach of Athletics. The blazer is considered to be the highest honor that a girl can receive. It is awarded at the end of her junior year to that girl who has been most representative of the college activities sports, dramatics. Y. W. C. A., other student activities, and at the same time a high scholastic standing, typifying by her fourfold interest the finest mold of college woman. I hc recipient of the award this year was Evelyn Lake. The Women s Athletic Council is composed of a representative elected by each class, and of the officers of the Association. The members of the Council, together with the players of the teams, elect the captains and managers of the sports. The Council also supervises the application of the Points System, makes the awards for which it provides and in general forms an advisory board for the Athletic Association. i 253 )• 1929 Hockey Season Coach Captain Manager THE TEAM Right Wing Katharine rower Inside Right Esther Billet Center Forward Ann Connor Inside Left Catharine Witman Left Wing Evelyn Lake Right Wing Harriettc Drysdalc Center Half Ruth Wismer Left Half Gerry Ohl Right Back Clara Riley Goalkeeper Gladys Stenger Substitutes: Petherbridge, Uhrich.

Throughout the season the defensive and offensive passwork was excellent, swift, and accurate. In spite of a bad start with a rainy season and a list of formidable rivals, the team came through with deserved success, winning four games, tying two and losing but two. The strength of the team was not due to individual playing but principally to the concerted action and perfect teamwork which prevailed. A number of players, however, were especially skillful in their respective lines and deserve credit for their work. Kvklyn i.akk. .iptain Notable among these was Captain l akc with her deer-like runs down the field: Katharine Power's scoring prowess, and the general outstanding work of Catharine Witman, Esther Billet. Ruth Wismer. and Ann Connor. I he season opened with Philadelphia Normal after Collcgevillc High School girls won a practice game from their more advanced rivals. Following the Philadelphia Normal victory. Glassboro was defeated. 3-0. Beaver staged a strong fight here and the game resulted in a 2-2 tie. The next two games were lost. Swarthmore lassies winning. 7-3. and George School. 8-2. Cedar Crest was defeated on our field, 2-1. but a return game with them resulted in a thrilling I-I deadlock.

Kach division of the team was excellent: the forwards accurate in shooting and passing, the centers an unbeatable combination for swiftness, and the guards clever and sure on the defense. With plenty of good new material some able players were developed and broke in the varsity line-up in their freshman year. Gkraijunk oiii.. Cap . Captain Olive Sargeant played an excellent game at guard, while Dorothy Seitz and ' Billie' Strieker held down the forward positions very capably, Lvelyn Lake and Ruth Wismer in the center of the court proved quite an obstacle in the paths of the opposition. Gerry” Ohl and Lib” Heinly divided honors in the other guard position. The season opened with a victory over Collcgcvillc High, followed with a 37-21 victory over the strong Drexel maids. Philadelphia Normal was trounced. 34-10. Albright was met in Myerstown and subdued after a torrid struggle. 22-20. Beaver was beaten. 30-29. much to their surprise, in one of the most exciting games of the year. A trip to Drexel resulted in another victory, but the hope for an undefeated season was broken, when in the final battle of the year Coach Krrctt's lassies bowed their locks in defeat to Cedar Crest in a great game. The final score was 23-20.

Last season four matches were scheduled, one of which was won. two tied, and one cancelled because of rain. The Beaver contests were closely fought. the visitors trying to break down the Ursinus endurance by drawing out the sets. Although Swarthmorc came with a high reputation for placement and accuracy, they were able to take only one singles match. Ursinus winning two singles and two doubles matches. Lvelyn Lake and Lois Strickler were the most accurate and the hardest hitting of the players. Captain Bowler was remarkable for her lasting endurance and steady returns.

The most exciting contests have been interclass hockey and basketball, with baseball and tennis now threatening to become involved. No one who has played in such games can forget the fun and excitement. Lspcc.ally memorable to the class of '30 are the hockey games won and lost by one-point margins, and especially the Frosh-Soph basketball game, when the scorekceper became excited and lost count, whereby '30 and ’31 had to meet in another battle. As for baseball no one was ever able to defeat the Seniors, while Sticks Riley was behind the bat. Interest in baseball has developed it to quite a science among the women students. The earliest signs of spring call forth its devotees and their apparatus. I liking has also been accepted as one of the most popular of the minor sports, and isa pleasant pastime for allseasonsof the year. More interest has been aroused in it lately by the formation of a I liking Club, composed of the girls who have received their letters for hiking one hundred miles or more. Additional awards arc made for each hundred miles succeeding the first. Closely related to hiking arc the track and field events. Lack of favorable weather in the spring has resulted in less attention being devoted to this sport. Interclass meets arc sometimes held and afford much enjoyment to both the contestants and the spectators. According to comparative scores the 1930 women can well be proud of their athletic achievements. A recently established, but very popular, sport is archery. A range has been marked out near the Field Cage, and on each clear day in fall and spring excited girls may be found chasing arrows around the neighboring trees and fields. Practicing this sport has put many people in good stead for the approach of May pageants. It is hoped that an archery team may be formed to meet with other schools. Although one of the newest sports to come into the calendar, swimming is one of the most popular of all. I he shady banks of the Perkiomcn are monopolized by the student body in summer and early fall, and these friendly and informal gatherings and impromptu contests form another strong link in that chain of more or less definable happenings which form the invaluable memories taken with us at graduation. •1 260 )• The South Hall Fire l ire, three times with a period of a week, threatened South I fall, a historic landmark and familiar camping ground for a number of “softies.''

An Ursinus Bedtime Story Once u|x n a time, many lone years ago. in a quaint little village known as Collcgevillc. there was a beautiful gray castle with a glistening red tower which could l c seen for miles around. The little lx ys and girls, who went there daily, called the castle Bom-l crgcr and here they spent together many happy hours of the day Mul ere long a mysterious old witch cast an uncanny spell over the place so that all happiness fled and grim despair stalked in and out of the rooms and up and down the stairs of the beautiful old castle. No longer could the children sit together in the quaint old chapel or stroll arm in arm around the castle grounds. In vain did they weep and wail, for the old witch would not relent Finally, one beautiful day. a good little fairy from the outer world came flitting over the trees and around the glistening red tower and heard the woeful cries of the helpless babes. Alas. said he. 1 shall see what I can do to aid these sad children. So he stole into a strange, weird room of the old castle a room filled with skeletons and mounted birds and queer lifeless things a room which the children called the “Lab. Here he worked for days and days, cutting the hearts out of frogs, the legs off flics and |x uring over hundreds of books with such big long words that no one but he could even pronounce them. Finally his tireless efforts were rewarded in the form of a powerful love potion which he scattered into the hearts of the children and o'er all the castle grounds. Ere many days had passed the spell was broken. The boys and girls again sat side by side in chapel, but things were different, for the good little fairy had l een more than generous with his love potion. Old timers, who croon stories of those days of the good little fairy, say that you could sec the most noticeable results of the love potion at a queer little house known as Glenwood Memorial. Night after night, the boys and girls sought out this queer place and night after night, the Memorial enjoyed the reputation of full house. In fact, they say. that there were actually signs of Standing Room Only posted for all late comers and old cronies swear by their grandmothers' right shoe string that the Hvfif T o 3 ( 269 ) An Ursinus Bedtime Story (Continued' wckhIs were people;! willi more than birds and l CC8.
