The OF 1935. YEARBOOK OF URSINUS COLLEGE, COL-LEGEV1LLE. PA. COPYRIGHTED BY THE EDITOR, HARRY F. BRIAN, AND THE BUSINESS BOARD. URSINUS COLLEGE %£G % ' 432 THE INTIMATE RUBY. IF YOU WILL, PUBLISHED BY THE SENIOR CLASS FOR THE STUDENTS OF URSINUS COLLEGE. THIS IS THE THIRTY-NINTH VOLUME. AN INFORMAL, PICTORIAL RECORD OF THE ? URSINUS STUDENT BODY AND THEIR PURSUITS. INTRODUCTION l LL yearbooks have an ultimate aim in view. Some go into detail in themes, others stress art work, still others delve into the past history of their respective schools. The 1935 Ursinus Ruby” attempts no superficialities whatever; instead it simply portrays Ursinus College life as we, the students, have seen it from the spring of '34 to the spring of '35. We have ignored the usual yearbook policy of dressing up the subject in a stiff, formal manner; our aim is, plainly speaking, an intimate, true-to-life picture, biief, yet complete, of the campus, the students and their activities, as we see them and as we hope to remember them. I DEDICATION 'J1 HE 1935 Ruby would defeat its own purpose if it failed to contain a fitting dedication. In this respect, the very nature of the volume calls for a personage who represents the ideals this publication attempts to portray. Intimacy, frankness, simplicity, the foundations on which this Ruby was built, were foremost in the minds of those who made the selection. Typical of the spirit which prevails on the campus, typical of the spirit which this, the intimate Ruby , endeavors to convey is our friend and guide. Prof. John Harold Brownback. To him this 1935 Ruby” is sincerely dedicated. DIRECTORS OF THE COLLEGE JAMES M. ANDERS, M.D., Sc.D., LL.D., Philadelphia Pa. REV. TITUS A. ALSPACH, D.D., Lancaster, Pa. HON. ANDREW R. BRODBECK.

TO THE SOCIAL FRATERNITIES AND SORORITIES. COUNCIL ON STUDENT ACTIVITIES Professor J. Harold Brownback, President of the Council. 'J1 HE reason why events happen when they do at Ursinus is due to the fact that the Council on Student Activities is on the job. This organization :s really the governing body for all other campus organizations, and it has undisputed authority as to the scheduling of campus activities. Since its existence, it has maintained an orderly schedule of extracurricular activities so that the least possible confusion of dates and an equitable distribution of them to the various organizations will result. Every campus organization is represented in the Council by an appointed member. Besides its business meetings, which are held the first Tuesday of every month, the Council supervises the ever-popular Recreation Hall and sponsors the annual Christmas party the night before the Christmas vacation. This year it sponsored an additional social event in the mariner of an informal dance held during the early part of May. The faculty members to the Council are Professors Brownback, president. Barnard, and Bone. Dr. White, and Mrs. Sheeder. Thomas Glassmoyer.

Just as the Council on Student Activities checks on the dates for events, so does this Committee check on the financial soundness of these events. All treasurers' accounts are audited twice a year, but the Committee meets at other times throughout the year to make recommendations and to discuss future policies. During the past year the Committee succeeded in securing an official regulation of dance prices to the effect that the assessment for formal dances should not exceed $3.50; informal dances. $1.50. Other ac tions of the Committee consisted of a decision that the Committee would be responsible for the securing and issuing of all tickets which must be purchased by organizations for all functions for which admission is charged ; second, likewise a recommendation to all organizations that the Committee demands a budget before any social function is held and a report within two weeks after the function. The Committee consists of three faculty members and three student members: Prof. M. O. Bone, president, Prof. F. I. Sheeder, Mr. R. C. Johnson, Dorothy Home, secretary.

The main work of the Council consisted of a revision of the constitution. regulation of freshmen customs, conduction of two informal dances and two parlies, sponsoring the band, installation of a new lighting system for dances in the gymnasium, management of two bonfires in celebration of football victories, arid investigation into several cases of misconduct. The constitutional changes effected reduced the number of senior members on the Council to five, gave the freshman representative full voting and legislative powers, placed the election of the president in the hands of the Student Assembly, and abolished the so-called regular meetings of the Assembly. The Council, in conjunction with the Women's Student Government Association, sponsored the Old Timers' Day Dance on October 20, 1934, and also the annual Lorelei Dance, held on February 15. 1935. In the same manner, the two Councils jointly conducted an orientation party for the freshmen last September and a Hallowe'en party the following month.

At the beginning of this school year they united with the Men’s Student Council. ?he Y. M. C. A., and the Y. W. C. A. to furnish an evening of entertainment for the freshmen. They also co-operated with these three organizations in planning the Hallowe'en party several weeks later. Twice they joined with the Men's Student Council to sponsor tv o informal dances, the Old Timers' Day Dance and the Lorelei. Among its other activities during the year, the Council includes the following: publication of a booklet containing rules for women, supervision of elections, and a tea on Mothers' Day. The Advisory Committee, an auxiliary committee of the Council, secured the following speakers for the freshmen women: Dean Wharton A. Kline, Mrs. Philip B. Willauer, Dr. Irene Laub, and Mrs. Griscom. The junior class members of this committee also served a breakfast for the freshman women at the beginning ot the year. 67 Y. M. C. A. Cabinet Standing: Tempest. Smith. Boysen, Shelley. Evans.

As a change from past activity, they banded together this year and worked as a joint organization rather than as separate units, and as a result accomplished much more than has been noticed of the Y organizations in the past several years. They adopted the big and little brother and sister plan again this past summer, whereby prospective freshmen corresponded with upper class men and women for the purpose of becoming more or less acquainted with campus life. During freshman orientation week, the Y's not only distributed the Freshman Handbooks to the yearlings, but also united with the Student Councils in entertaining them in an informal reception at the gym. Later in the 68 OFFICERS fall, the Y's again cooperated with the Student Councils in sponsoring a Hallowe'en party in the gym for the entire student body.

The organization will be three years old this June. The main work of the society consists in securing a series of speakers including well-known physicians and other leading scientific men of this locality. An attempt is made to have at least one speaker every month for each regular meeting of the club. This year, however, serious difficulty was encountered in carrying out this plan, and very few speakers were secured. The outstanding speaker of the year was Dr. James M. Anders, member of the Ursinus Board of Directors and prominent Philadelphia physician, whose name the society bears. He presented a talk on Food and Health at the November meeting of the organization. Although membership in the society is limited, all meetings are open to any students interested. The full-fledged members have the privilege of securing keys in recognition of membership in the society. OFFICERS President Camillo R. Kurtz Vice-President Wilbur H.

HE HALL CHEMICAL SOCIETY, an organization planned for all students interested in chemistry, entered upon its third year of existence on the Ursinus campus last December. This also marked the third year of the presidency of William H. Evans, one of the co-founders of the organization. At the regular meetings of the club, held every other Monday evening throughout the year, varied programs dealing with certain topics of interest to chemical students are presented. On occasion a professor in the science department is secured as a speaker. Only one such address was heard this year, however, when Dr. John W. Mauchly spoke on Electrical Discharges Through Gases.” The custom of introducing outside speakers was also planned toward the close of the year. In addition to speakers and the regular programs, the society this year conducted a series of illustrated lectures on varied subjects, using the newly installed motion picture machine in the science building for this purpose. Included in this series were two films released by the Bureau of Mines, one on The Manufacture of Iron and Steel. ana the other on ' The Extraction of Bromine from Sea Water. A new standard of eligibility for membership in the society was set early in 1934. Plans were also made for procuring some sort ol key or charm in recognition of membership. 71 INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS CLUB ■pHE INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS CLUB of Ursinus is an organization planned for the consideration and discussion of world problems and international affairs. At the regular meetings, which are held bimonthly. one topic of world-wide importance is considered. Various members of the club present reports on the different phases of the subject, and general discussions follow. At intervals during the year, the club holds open meetings. One such program was held this year in celebration of Armistice Day. The local organization cooperated with the Lions Club and the Community Club of Collegeville in securing as a guest speaker. Prof. Leonard Rice of the Hill School in Pottstown. Prof. Rico is an authority on the subject of the munitions industry, and gave an address on that subject, entitled Enemies of Peace. The Ursinus Club was also one of the thirty-eight colleges represented at the Middle Atlantic Conference of International Relations Clubs which was held at Pennsylvania State College, November 23 and 24. At this conference, the subject of Recent Trends in Nationalism was taken up. The outstanding speaker was Dr. Otto Nathan of Princeton University, former Economic Advisor to the German Government.

'J’HE official organization of the students who are preparing for the ministry, the Brotherhood of St. Paul, has continued its customary work of giving its members opportunity to secure practical experience in the ministerial field. Besides the monthly meetings of the organization, this work has been mainly carried out through the activities of the deputation team. It is in this latter field that the Brotherhood performs its most important work. Especially so this year has there been a great increase in the number of visits made by the deputation team to churches in nearby localities. Up to the middle of March, 1935, a total of sixteen such visits were made. These practical experience contacts have proved most valuable to members of the Brotherhood. Clats ol 1938: W : Norman S.

It's what we've striven for, and we hope, accomplished. The intimate Ruby”, which had its coming-out party in this merry month of May. 1935, is unique in several respects. Maybe too much so for some, but it's different from the average college annual, and that's point one accomplished. The Ruby”, which has already been impressed on the reader's mind as the official yearbook of Ursinus College, was founded back in '96 and named after Samuel Vernon Ruby, a faculty literary figure of note. Dr. Ruby might not appreciate the 1935 version of his namesake, for it does not take many moments to see the radical changes this present volume contains as compared with its distinguished ancestors. It may seem strange to those of the old guard to behold the budding ‘35 graduate posing in an open collar and bearing a natural expression on his face rather than being pictured in the stereotyped yearbook manner, or the captain of the wrestling team fixing his sweat pants rather than sitting in Style 1. Figure B athletic picture position with chest expanded and legs crossed at 45 degree angles. Yes, as you see, we've tried (as far as our budget allowed) to abolish conventional yearbook patterns in the '35 Ruby , and instead, to substitute the original for the tin-type. Intimacy and informality are the key-words of the volume. We v ant our readers to feel as though they are getting, all for that good old S4.50, four years of actual college life and experience, crowded into 192 pages plus ads and a nice thick cover. And for those who can't read, there are plenty of pictures in the book that, in getting them photographed, caused more headaches than we care to admit. The brainstorms which swept through the editor's gray matter in compiling the '35 Ruby” were almost too much for one man Ruby Editorial Staff assembled together to look ovo: a fow samplo writeups.

Naturally his staff helped him out or else qave him more headaches. A host of seniors and juniors aided in the individual writeups, but special mention must go to Jesse Heiges, one of the local big smokes, and George Givant, chief and assistant chief, respectively, of the writeup department. T. P. Glass-moyer, recently converted from Rec Hall to the editorship of a Ruby of his own, T. J. Beddow, Dorothy Horne, Lydia Ganser, and E. W. Covert were other members of the staff who aided greatly in the editorial work of the book. Thanks to our good friend, F.D.R., and his pet alphabet codes, the financial progress of the Ruby” was made an exceedingly rocky read to travel in more ways than one. How to make ends meet and also to keep at least one business manager more than two weeks at a stretch were two of the major problems confronting the editor, when not worrying whether the photographer had run out of gas on the way up from the studio to take play pictures. Even to this day there is still no business manager; new recruits could not keep up with the rapid series of resignations and removals. Nevertheless, had it not been for the exceptional work on the part of Mike Hunter, who put the business staff under martial law the two months previous to the Ruby's” publication, said Ruby may have never had a semblance of getting on its feet financially. Alexander Leidy kept the books K.O. by sanction of the C. on S. E., while C. Howard Gill was the third of a long line of check signers who acceded to the office of treasurer when everybody else quit. But. in spite of all these adverse conditions, this thirty-ninth volume of the Ursinus Ruby , informal, intimate, frank, different, crazy, or anything else you choose to call it, is completed and one of the first yearbooks off the press in 1935, and, we hope, one of the best.

THE URSINUS WEEKLY 'pHE URSINUS WEEKLY has been definitely improved during the last twelve months, althouqh it is not yet all that it might be. After several years of agitation, the paper v as granted a room in the basement of the library, which is now its office. Here the editor, an associate editor, and several issue assistants meet every Sunday evening to plan the make-up for the next day's paper and to write headlines and a few remaining articles. This system was instituted only last February. It has resulted in relieving the burden placed on associate editors, improving the quality of headlines, and developing esprit de corps. No longer are the editorials in the Weekly merely the individual opinion of the writer. The editor, Jesse G. Heiges, and the associate editors Dora Evans, Anna Grimm, Thomas Beddow. Thomas Glass-moyer, and Kermit Harbaugh met regularly once a week to consider and approve the editorials for the following Monday. Starting with the first issue last September, the initial signing of editorials was abolished, as being a high school practice which other colleges did not follow. The editorial column, as the voice of the paper instead of a particular individual. is now of greater influence in the molding of campus opinion. Although it has not campaigned for this or that particular cause, it has brought constructive criticism to bear on numerous campus problems and has shown continuity in its editorial policy. Under the present staff's regime, the editorial page has been more carefully planned and a separate page for sports has been begun. No longer do sports or other news articles pop up unexpectedly at the side of the editorials. Athletics now have a page of their own, an inevitable and much needed improvement. Three new feature columns, meeting with varying degrees of student approval, have made their R. Norman Turner, Circulation Manaqor. leaving Printing Shop with Supply of ''Weeklies.'- 76 Fred Mueller, Adventsing Manager, Busily at Work Getting the Weekly” Out o! the Red. appearance on the editorial page within the last few months. At the editor's request, twelve professors each contributed an article of student interest on a contemporary problem in his field. From Our Files, a summary of events taken from the papers of corresponding weeks, thirty, twenty, and ten years ago. has unearthed many landmarks and items of note in the past history of the College. To provide material for the third new column, begun in January, a different question of campus interest was asked a representative group of students each week. Most of those solicited were quite willing to contribute their signed opinions for publication on the question at issue. The highlight of the year for the Weekly. however. was its privilege of being host to the Intercollegiate Newspaper Association of the Middle Atlantic States on Friday and Saturday, April 12 and 13. Ursinus was a charter member of the association when it was founded in 1919 and was also its host in 1925. The meeting this year brought much publicity to the College and helped to train and to inspire the incoming staff. Cigarette advertising made possible a six-page paper for the greater part of the year. The financial prospects are that the Weekly. after two years in the red, v ill finally come out on the credit side of the iedger. The rest of the staff is as follows: Advisory Editor: Treasurer: 0.

Thomas, ’35. Throe issues of the publication appeared, as last year, but improvement was evident in an increase in the size of the magazine and in more varied types of articles. The three issues included a Christmas number, which appeared in the middle of December, and two numbers during the second semester, one in March and one in May. Important also in the year's activity of the staff was a reorganization of the executive council and amendments to the constitution. One of these amendments increased the number of student members of the executive council from six to eight, bringing the total council membership to eleven, the other three being faculty members. The size of the magazine was originally set at iv enty-four pages, as compared with the sixteen-page publication of last year. The last two issues, however, were built up to twenty-eight pages due to better financing of the work. It is to be noted also that even with the increase in size, the standard of material for publication has been raised. Contributions are solicited from the entire student body as always, the council acting mostly in an editorial capacity. Editor Thomas' associates are: Ruth I. Hamrna. Edward S. Dlls. Elms: W. I.

Ursinus' official football program. This publication, sponsored by the Varsity Club, is printed for every home game. The first of the three issues of the 1934 Gridder'' was the Old Timers' Day number which came out for the F. and M. game on October 20. The other two issues were printed on November 3 and November 17 for the Drexel and Gettysburg games, the latter planned in commemoration of Fathers' Day. The Gridder this year continued the policy established by that of the previous year in including feature articles along v ith the ordinary material included in football programs. It differed, however, from that of 1933 in a change in the cover design and a reduction in the number of pages from 24 to 20. Other changes were also made in rhe layout throughout the book, which was considered one of the best programs in smaller college circles. The largest sale occurred on October 20 with the F. and M. issue, at which time over 400 copies were sold, the largest program sale ever recorded. As customary, the program was sold for fifteen cents to students the night before games, and for twenty-five cents at the gate. The profits realized on the magazine are divided between the staff and the Varsity Club. This year a new ratio of distribution was effected, sixty per cent going to the sponsoring organization and the remainder to the staff. The total profits realized on the three issues of 1934 amounted to over $300. 61 Typical Scone Selling Griddors at the F. M. Football Game. THE FRESHMAN HANDBOOK Lyndell R. Rebor E. Eugono Shelloy Editor Assistant Business Manager HANDBOOK STAFF Harold N. Holcombe Dorothy A. Witmor Business Manager Associate Editor HE FRESHMAN HANDBOOK for the year 1934-35 marked the sixteenth volume of the publication which was established in 1919. This issue of the book, a work of the Christian Associations of the Collecje, was dedicated to Dean Whorton A. Klme in appreciation of forty years service to Ursinus. The 1934-35 Handbook followed the custom of past Handbooks in briefly outlining the various activities of the campus organizations and in presenting messages to the ireshmen from student leaders and various faculty members. It also retained the freshmen rules and other information useful for the first-year men and women. Despite the retention of certain features of previous volumes, the nsw Handbook was a decided improvement over those of the past few years in the display of some originality both in design and makeup. It dropped several outworn features and substituted in their stead a graphic section of prominent students on the campus. The cover also was changed from the old stereotyped black leatherette affair to one of red with a different cover design. 82 TAU KAPPA ALPHA Josso G. Hoigos President Mildred G. Fox Vice-President Thomas P. Glassmoyor Secretary-Treasurer 'J’AU KAPPA ALPHA, the honorary debating society, is one of the two national fraternities represented on the Ursinus campus. Membership in it is awarded to those members of the men's and women’s debating teams who have participated in at least three intercollegiate debates. Three new men were initiated into the fraternity this year: Clyde F. Straub. E. Kermit Harbaugh, and Elmer W. J. Schmitt, increasing the student membership in the society to fourteen. The year 1935 marked the tenth anniversary of the founding of the Ursinus Chapter. In celebration of that anniversary, the spring initiation ceremony and banquet was sot for Juno 8, two days before tho Commencement Exercises. Besides the regular activities of the fraternity, the Ursinus Chapter sent five delegates to the regional conference held at Juniata College on March 29 and 30. This conference included all the chapters of the organization in Southern New York, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia. Harvey L. Carter is the faculty advisor of the society. MEMBERS Class of 1935: K.

THE WEBSTER FORENSIC CLUB 'J’HE MEN'S DEBATING CLUB, known as the Webster Forensic Club, continued its work during the past year as sponsor of the men's intercollegiate debating activities. As has been the custom in the past, freshmen candidates were especially encouraged to participate. The club now numbers twenty active members as compared with fourteen last year. Following Coach Carter's policy of giving every one a chance to debate, sixteen men participated in intercollegiate dabates, six of whom had no previous college experience. Two questions were debated: one. Resolved, that the nations should agree to prohibit the international shipment cf arms and munitions ; and the other, Resolved, that Pennsylvania should adopt a system of socialized medicine. Three overnight road trips and two radio debates were included in the schedule. The radio debates were with the University of Pennsylvania, broadcast over WCAU in Philadelphia, and with Rutgers, broadcast over WAAT in Jersey City. Other colleges debated during the course of the year were Franklin and Marshall. Gettysburg, Western Maryland, Wagner, Drew, Bucknell, Dickinson, Albright. Lincoln, Muhlenberg, and Lehigh. The men on the affirmative side of the first question were Abe E. Lipkin '37, E. Eugene Shelley '37, Clyde F. Straub '35, and Charles Wallick '38; the negative team was composed of Jesse G. Heiges '35, E. Kermit Harcaugh '35, Thomas P. Glassmoyer '36, Douglas Mertz '38, Richard Yahraos '38, and Eli Broidy '38. The affirmative socialized medicine team included H. Allen Cooper '35. Elmer W. J. Schmitt '36, and Paul Shelly '36, while the negative team on that question was made up of Thomas J. Beddow '36, Rubin Levin '36. and Eugene Bradford '36.

At these meetings debates are held on pertinent subjects and they, in turn, are followed by lively discussions in which the entire group participates. Since the varsity debaters of the women's teams are chosen from the membership of this Club, it serves as a training ground for their public activities. During the past year the intercollegiate debates were centered about the same two questions that the men debaters used in their debates. The women's team combined with the men's team on several occasions this season in mixed debates. Members of the Club: Doris Wilfong Alice Richard Mildred Gring Maud Funk Elizabeth B.

Program presentations include symphonic selections, overtures, operatic numbers, and popular musical comedy selections. In addition to regular concert practice, the members are drilled in technical studies, tone production, and ensemble routine. No public appearances have been made by the Orchestra, except at the Zwing Play and at the May Day Pageant last spring. Plans are being considered for campus concerts late this spring and early next fall.

The new organization, known as the College Club Orchestra, made a successful public debut at the Christmas party last December, and because of it, •was since scheduled for several informal social events. The two Student Councils employed the College Clubbers at the ultra-informal dances on Saturday evenings when no other activities had been scheduled. The Orchestra also played for the Intercollegiate Newspaper Association Convention Hop, held at the Thompson-Gay Gymnasium in April, and for the Council on Student Activities Dance in May. The membership of the Orchestra is made up entirely of students and consists of William Leman, Rudolph Risk, and Kirk Wyatt, saxophones; Kenneth Benjamin and Richard James, trumpets; Josiah Harris, guitar; Charles Cubberley. drums; Robert Gottschall, bass; and Richard Miller, piano. 93 The Collogo Clubber: all Sot ‘or thoir First Collogo Dauco Engagement.

The annual Schaff and Zv ing Plays are its most notable achievements, although it has put on several minor one-act plays for various club purposes. Full membership is given to anyone who has participated in a play or served on a play committee. During the past year, a chapter of Alpha Psi Omega, National Honorary Dramatic Fraternity, was founded by the Club with 23 charter members. The local chapter, known as Delta Tau, has for its sponsor, Dr. Reginald S. Sibbald who, with his wife. Dr. and Mrs. Sibbald, Coachos of all Curtain Club Productions, with ' Poum , Honorary Atmosphere Actor fer the Club. coaches all the dramatic productions of the Curtain Club. Likewise, the Club officers also serve as officers of the fraternity. All members of the Club are eligible to membership to the fraternity if they have participated in two major plays or served on three play committees. The present members of Alpha Psi Omega are: William Evans, Mildred Fox, Craig Johnston, Heradah Newsome. Dorothy Patterson, all seniors, and Elizabeth Krusen, Donald Ohl, Montgomery Weidner, Dorothea Wieand, juniors. At the present time there are 75 members in the Curtain Club, the largest membership of any club on the campus. 95 THE CURTAIN CLUB presents “Double Door and “Death Takes a Holiday” ‘pWO more interesting chapters were added to the successful history of Ursinus dramatics with the Curtain Club's presentation of the Zwing Play last spring and the Schaff Play this past fall. Of the two. from most critics' viewpoints, Alberto Casella's Death Takes A Holiday,” given May. 1934, was by far the better, both in acting and story. Double Door” given last October, was very weli enacted, but neither the story nor the cast could match Casella's great stage and screen success. Both productions were directed by Dr. and Mrs. Sibbald, who must be credited with having turned out some outstanding dramatic productions in the past three years at Ursinus. The accompanying pictures really tell the stories of the plays better than any involved written descriptions. The ones below give an idea of the setting of Double Door, written by Elizabeth McFadden, which had for its theme the battle for power in the old New York Van Brett family, featuring Victoria Van Brett as the domineering elder sister who was the central figure throughout the plot. The play was a personal triumph for Dorothy Patterson, of the senior class, who displayed remarkable ability in the role of the half-crazed Victoria. She can be seen attempting to mold the activities of her younger brother. Rip, played by Donald Oh!, '36, to her own will as Fred Schiele. '35. a friend of the family, and Montgomery Weidner, '36, as Neff, the family lawyer, look on. The other picture shows R:p and his betrothed, Anne Darrow, played by Troupiere Sipe. '35. discussing their coming marriage, which was the cause of Victoria's hatred for Anne. The final picture shows the insidious Victoria gloating over the prized Van Brett pearls, family heirlooms, for many generations, as the servants. Raymond Christy, '37, Gertrude Goldberg, '38, Alice Plunkett. '38, and William Tempest. '35, listen to the tale she tells about them. Because Rip desires to give these heirlooms to his bride, Victoria locks Anne behind the double door in a secret room in a fit of madness, and seals her own doom as Carolyn, her meek sister, portrayed by Mary Helen Alspach, '36. tells of the deed. A bit of comedy enlivened the treacherous plot when Edward Knudsen, '35. in the race track suit, appeared on the stage in the role of a private detective. Mr. Knudsen's bald pate caused a slight relief from the heavy scenes previous to the occasion. Henry Schaeffer, '36. had another minor part. Death Takes A Holiday.” rendered before a capacity Mother's Day audience, was probably the most outstanding dramatic offering of the Curtain Club since its existence. The efforts of the cast in producing the odd plot were all that one could ask for. and again one character stood head and shoulders above the rest that of Prince Sirki, or Death, a dual role, portrayed by Robert Dresch, of the class of '34. Mr. Dresch gave a remarkable portrayal of the difficult role and made an excellent stage appearance as the pictures show. Lower: with Gratzia (Betty Frost. '38), his beloved, whom he carries away to the realm of Death at the end of his earthly stay. Middle: with Alda (Dolores Quay. '34). whom he first admired in his feigned position as the 96 Prince. Right: with the Prince (Luke Kochenberger. '34). whom he befriended and liked best of all in his mortal role. The entire cast is shown in the upper scene as all of Duke Lambert's (Walter Tropp, '34) quests try to find out what horrible vision beautiful Gratzia has seen in the garden. Messrs. Dresch, Tropp, and Kochenberqer, and Misses Quay, Frost and Betty Luther, '34, did some excellent acting in this grip-ping drama. The sound and lighting effects, as well as the poise of all the actors in their unusual roles, were masterpieces for an amateur club. Other members of the cast included Dorothy Patterson, '35, Sarah Mary Ouderkirk, '34, Everett Danehov er, '34. Montgomery V eidner, '36, William Evans, '35, Donald Ohl, '36. and Sara Ennis.

Each fraternity holds the officer's positions once every five years. This year the Council was especially successful in securing harmony among the five fraternities, both during and after rushing season, which, frankly speaking, is the main purpose of the Council. After a lapse of a year it again sponsored an Inter-Fraternity Dance. This time the affair, which was hold in January, was informal and proved to be both a financial and social success. The most significant action of the Inter-Fraternity Council during the past year was the purchase of a plaque to be awarded to the fraternity having the highest scholastic average each semester. It is of ebony finished wood, ten inches high and twelve wide. Upon it is a male figure and shield, of silver plate, which total eight inches in height. There are also four plates on which will be engraved the names of the winning fraternities. OFFICERS PRESIDENT E.

Its purposes to increase the scholastic standards of the athlete, to make the granting of a sport letter an event of honor, to increase respect for the letter as well as the wearer, are well-founded and are not idle boasts. The Club's activities have been particularly broad in scope this past year. Besides serving in its capacity as official sponsorer of the 'Grizzly Gridder. from the sales of which the Club realized a goodly profit, the organization ran a very successful sport dance after the Gettysburg football game. The let-termen's organization also provided for a large elaborate trophy case which has been placed in the science building lobby and which will contain all the intercollegiate and mter-dormitory awards and cups that rightfully belong there. This case, a long-needed improvement, will permanently house all the athletic awards. As usual, the annual Varsity Club banquet was held around the Easter holidays and speakers of importance in the sporting v orld were again secured for the program. 114 LETTERMEN OF URSINUS FOOTBALL Samuel C.

Much has been written about the inconsistent Bears of '34, but regardless of what the diverse opinions were of the 17 ill-fated sports writers who attempted to solve the Grizzly system of winning and losing games, it is certainly true that whatever happened, the men of McAvoy and Chase always gave the spectators their money's worth by doing exactly opposite from what was expected. When the Bears were slated to win, they lost, and vice versa. They garnered three ties also, to add a bit of variation to the season's record. The Conference hopes of the Bears were blown sky high after two ties and the Gettysburg defeat failed to counterbalance the victory over F. M. The latter two teams deadlocked for top-honors in the Conference, as the Bears finished third. Captain Sam Levin, pictured in the upper left hand corner, is the real serious loss suffered by the '34 Grizzlies. Sammy leaves a large vacancy at tackle which will be a problem for the coaches to fill next year. Seven other seniors also will help deplete the football ranks via graduation. They are: Charlie Harvey and Walt Price, both able backs, Roy Johnson, a big, rangy end, Ed Knudsen and Tom Price, guards, and Alex Kravitz and Emmy Gill, tackles. Next we see Fred Schiele, senior manager, and a freshman helper going through the daily routine of packing away the headgears after practice. The scene below is typical of any Saturday morning before a home game; the junior managers and their freshmen recruits are lining the field to help nearsighted officials and players who are apt to become lost on the wide open spaces of Patterson Field. The bottom picture shows the official Ursinus transport about to leave for Muhlenberg. The driver must have gotten a whiff of the coal gas from the boiler house. 116 FOOTBALL Hit that dummy and he did. It's a tough life, this tackling practice.

The cheerleaders' squad. Cooper Hayashi, and Guest, in bottom picture, in midst of a locomotive yell during the disastrous Gettysburg game. The Bears needed more than cheers to win that tilt. The pigskin warriors batted .500 for the season v ith three of everything. They scored only 43 points all told to their opponents 75, and never totaled more than one touchdown per game until Thanksgiving Day. They astounded the sports v orld by triumphing over the University of Pennsylvania and F. and M.. teams rated head and shoulders above them, and then equally disappointed their followers in that weird affair at St. Joe's, as v ell as the three stalemates v ith Dickinson. Drexel, and Muhlenberg, teams all rated inferior to the Bears. At least the McAvoymen ended the season gloriously by trouncing Albright's Lions, 13-7, in a sea of mud on Turkey Day. That the 1934 Grizzlies just didn't have what it took when they became goal line conscious, seems to be the solution to their troubles. Lack of punch at the necessary moments cost them victories in every one of the games save two; the Villanova game being merely a matter of being totally outclassed, while in the F. S M. contest, the Bears did actually cash in on a touchdov n at the vital point and consequently sent several thousand Lancastrians back home with broken spirits and pocket-books. All in all, Ursinus had a fair season, hitting in turn the high spots and the low spots, playing brilliantly at times and wretchedly at others, but alv ays pretty generally inconsistently. Herman Bassman and Johnny Grimm, both stellar performers, have been elected co-captains for the 1935 team. 117 ' VILLANOVA Top: Andy Jakomas, soph back, caught in action as ball is snapped. Middle: Coaches McAvoy ar.d Chase looking plenty worried at the Vlllanova gamo. Bottom: The bulwarks of strength in th'' Grisly lino: Grimm, guard; Rinehart, canter: Ccstdio, guard. VILLANOVA Far from emulating its activities at Villanova in 1933, the 1934 Grizzly grid machine never even got out of low gear at the Main Line stadium in the season's opener, and the dire result was a 35-0 shellacking for the Bears; the worst drubbing a Collegeville eleven had received in four years. The game itself was a complete disappointment for hopeful Collegeville followers, who were expecting to throw a scare into the lair of the Wildcat because of the previous year's showing, and from start to finish it was a complete rout for the men of McAvoy and Chase. The accompanying picture shows the Ursinus coaches registering plenty of anxious moments on the side lines as big Carrol Cook, Nick Kotys, and Co., paraded up and down the field in squadron formation, running the ends and sweeping the tackles in mid-season form, while the wearied Bears followed halfheartedly with dragging tongues and dulled claws. About the only thing that brightened the countenance of Ursinus followers at all was the coffin corner punting of Bounce Bonkoski, new soph find at quarterback, in the first half. Ursinus never had a chance as the 'Cats piled up four of their five touchdowns in quick order in the second half. Grimm, Rinehart and Costello played best for ihe Grizzlies by sporting an impregnable defense in the center of the line. Andy Jakomas, soph halfback, was very seriously hurt in the fray and was out of the line-up for three weeks. 118 PENN Bears Top Penn, 7-6. Little Ursi-nus Surprises Quakers, Beats Penn For First Time Since 1910. Headlines such as these caught the nation's eye Sunday morning, Oct. 9, 193-1, and for the moment, Ursinus enjoyed national football prominence. The first major upset of the '34 gridiron season had occurred, which v as, no doubt, the start of the Bear's up-and-down career as far as football v as concerned. As the picture indicates, it v as a dark and dreary day for Penn as the Grizzlies out-smarted, out-fought, and out-gamed the Quakers on a v ater-logged Franklin Field, and never did the Red and Blue band play the dirge so woefully as when hilarious Ursinus rooters carried their muddy heroes off the battlefield just after the final whistle had sounded a 7-6 victory for the Perkioinen warriors. The story was simple enough. In the first period Herman Red Bass-man, hard hitting Grizzly back, snared a Penn aerial and galloped 45 yards to the goal line via some excellent broken field running and good blocking. Then Bonkoski, v hose toe kept the university eleven on the run all afternoon, place-kicked a perfect extra point, and the game was won. After Penn had registered a six-pointer in the second quarter, Captain Sam Levin broke through the Red and Blue line to block the try for point and save the game for Ursinus. The second half was a replica of the first, save for no scores, and although in hot water several times, plucky Ursinus' bid for football fame was strong enough to stave off all Penn threats. Enigmatic Ursinus rested on top this time. PENN Top: Throo Philadelphians who played title rolo In Penn's defeat: Rube Levin, tackle: Reds Bass.-nan. back: Sam Levin, lackto.

JOSEPH'S The letdown Jack McAvoy's Bears exhibited one week after their brilliant triumph at Penn was so disappointing that the least said about it the better. Plain downright cockiness and an inspired St. Joseph's eleven were the factors responsible for Ursinus' second defeat as the Hawks humiliated the Bears by the baseball score of 6 to 4. The Grizzlies, noticeably overconfident, wasted many scoring opportunities throughout the contest, and although they pushed the Hawks all over the fiold, they always failed when the goal line became temptingly close. St. Joe's cashed in on a 25 yard lateral pass in the second quarter and caught the Bears hibernating. Tor the remainder of the tilt, the Hawks played do-or-die defensive ball and the best the shiftless Bears could do in matter of scoring was two safeties, both of which v ould have been touchdowns had Ursinus been playing real football. F. M. The picture shows Captain Levin shaking hands with Cannon and Kar-vasales, co-leaders of the season's fourth grid opponent F. and M. The crazy graph which indicated the Grizzlies' football record once again shot from the depths to the heights as the Bears sent gridiron dopesters to the bughouse with an unexpected 6-0 victory over their ancient rivals for the fifth straight year. Ursinus 120 again held the time worn Indian sign over the Roses, and neither perfect football weather, half of Lancaster's populace, nor the best set of slippery backs east of the Mississippi could enable the Nevonians to break the jinx. The largest crowd to witness an Ursinus grid battle in many a moon. Old Timers and all, rejoiced in unison as Gene Bradford, Grizzly end, grabbed Davison's pass in the third period and scrambled over the goal line for the points that enabled the Bears to reclaim their reputation as a good football club. Bradford fumbled in the end zone, but Bass-man v as there to recover and score the touchdown, and nobody cared if Bonkoski did miss the try for point, as the growiing Grizzlies hopped into the top rung of the Conference ladder. The excellent punting of Harvey Quay, the alertness of the entire Ursinus forward wall in check ing the F. and M. backs, and the complete reversal of form from the week previous established the Mc-Avoymen once more as the enigma of the '34 gridiron. DICKINSON Amid a downpour of old Jupe Pluvius best offerings, the Ursinus gridders pulled another exhibit of their erratic activities against the Red Devils of Dickinson when they battled the Carlisle team to a scoreless stalemate in Conference game No. 2.

(Bottom): Two Bear wing-men who gave excellent performances all season Lamoro, soph, ar.d Bradford, junior. were they against the Red Devils, and despite the fact that they held the upper hand throughout the fray, lack of scoring punch deprived the Collegeville warriors from emerging victorious. A sea of mud represented the gridiron and slowed up both teams to such a degree that the game became a very drab affair. The contest marked the first appearance of Calvert in the backfield, but the water-logged ball made it practically impossible to make any headway via passes. Ursinus' several scoring threats were frustrated each time by the home team within the 10 yard line. DREXEL Ursinus' tying ways continued for the second straight week as Drexel's Dragons, most bitter of Grizzly foes, invaded Collegeville with dragon, white paint, R. O. T. C„ and all, and fought every inch of the way to earn a 0-0 deadlock with the warriors of McAvoy and Chase. The second team started for the Grizzlies and failed to click, but the first team did little better when inserted into the lineup, pulling the usual stunt of casting anchor when inside the enemy ! 0-yard stripe. Fumbles and inconsistent playing ruined five excellent Ursinus scoring opportunities, the great mass of yardage the Bears gained from scrimmage going for naught. The picture shows Jack Davison going for a substantial gain around end, one of many such dur- 122 ing the afternoon, but a score was out of the question. The feature of the afternoon was the grand ''free-for-all, or attack of the Ursinus freshmen on the cheese-cloth edition of the Drexel Dragon which gradually resulted in a general mix-up of practically everyone in Patterson Field at half-time. Like the game, it also was a no-decision contest, although the dragon was devoured piecemeal. MUHLENBERG After two weeks of trying, the Bears finally scored a touchdown and in doing so turned almost certain defeat into their third consecutive tie score, this time with Muhlenberg, 7-7. The third Conference game practically eliminated Ursinus from the championship running as tho stubborn Mules thwarted the Grizzlies’ persistent attacks and then marched 80 yards in half a dozen plays for a touchdown in the fourth quarter. Trailing 7-0 and looking v orse each minute before a partisan Allentown audience, the Ursinus outfit suddenly started a determined goalward drive itself in the v aning moments of play. Cliff Calvert's mighty arm catapulted some terrific passes to able Grizzly receivers and finally Grenawalt snagged one and fell across the goal line for the points that gave the small Ursinus following their first thrill since the F. and M. tilt. After Bonksoki's placement had knotted tho going, the Boars started another air raid on the fal- GETTYSBURG (Top;: Charlie Harvey. blocking back, who saved day for Ursinus al Ponn, and Marlin Brandi, soph halfback, who played good ball agams: Villanova.

GETTYSBURG The Bullets were flying on Patterson Field in the last home game of the season, and try as they might to dodge them, the Ursinus warriors allowed themselves to be carelessly hit twice, giving Hen Bream's collegians a 14-6 victory before a large Father's Day audience. Outgained, outpassed, and outclassed, especially in the final period, the battlefield boys struck just twice, and won. The first was a 35 yard pass the only one Gettysburg completed during the game - and the second was a blocked Ursinus punt, converted by Brown of the visitors into a touchdown, and 14 points were obtained without even half trying. The blundering Bears broke up their tying streak, by dropping a contest in which they predominated most of the time; one in v hich they garnered 10 first downs to the visitors' 2, and threatened several times. Late in the game, with the second stringers playing a great brand of ball, Roy Johnson grabbed a forward and raced 35 yards to score the only points for the Bears. Walt Price and Red Bassler rent the G-burg line to shreds with their plunging in the final canto, while Lamore and Johnson wore snatching aerials from nowhere, to the bewilderment of the 124 sagging Bullets, and again it would have been an Ursinus triumph had not the local attack started too late. ALBRIGHT In the season’s finale at Albright, the McAvoymon made their record an even .500 per cent with a well-deserved 13-7 victory over the Reading Lions. Playing before a Turkey Day audience of 2500 who braved the elements to see a contest played in ankle-deep mire, rivalling the Penn and Dickinson games for sloppy conditions, the Bears went to work in the initial period and rolled up tv o touchdowns in no time. After a 20 yard advance, Bassler plunged over the final stripe from the one-foot line for the first score, Bon-koski adding the point, while Lamore caught a 10 yard pass and stepped across the line for the second counter a few moments later. A fumble, deep in Grizziy territory, gave the Lions their scoring chance, and several plays later they countered their lone touchdown. With the start of the second half. Ursinus again became masters of the situation and only penalties prevented them from increasing the size of their score. This was the first game in which the Bears actually showed a sustained offensive drive, one which lasted until the goal line was crossed. The picture shows the mud-laden grid-ders in action, and gives one an idea of the conditions under which the final 1934 football battle for Ursinus was played. ALBRIGHT (Top): Goorcji?

SOCCER P S :f trying to imitate the men of the gridiron, Coach Doc Baker's shin-busters enjoyed about the same type of season as the football team with an even .500 average. The 1934 Grizzly soccer team turned in three victories, two ties, and three defeats in eight games played, but like the gridders might have had a bettor average had they been playing heads-up ball in several of the tilts. As it was, the booters had a good season as compared with the year previous, and although seven seniors will be graduated, six of which are charter members of the first intercollegiate Ursinus soccer team organized in '32, the Bakermen should go places in the newly organized Conference Soccer League next year. In the upper corner is Russ Fisher, captain and three-year center forward of the Bears, heading a ball in practice. Russ was just about the fastest lineman Ursinus opponents could hope to stack up against and v as the keynote of the Grizzly offense. Others who wound up their careers last fall are: Herb Stratton and Red Ellis, fullbacks, Harry Brian and Charley George, halfbacks, Benny Stoudt, a lineman, and Cooper, who alternated at goalie frequently. The middle picture shows some hot action around the Ursinus goal in the hectic Gettysburg game, one of the roughest affairs of the season. 126 George rallies long boot lex Ursinus' second qoal against the Bullets in rough and tumble contest, as Fisher collides with G-Burg defense. The Grizzly defense has just thwarted the Bullets' attempt to score. Belov we have Coach Donald Baker, former All-American inside at Haverford, donned in his practice togs for an afternoon workout.

Some of the members on the squad put ting new cleats on their clod-hoppers,” which take a terrific beating in this shin-busting sport. In the lower picture the team is just breaking out of a huddle before the Gettysburg fray and the members are taking their positions on the field. The victories obtained by the soccermen this season were at the expense of F. and M., Swarthmore J. V.'s, and Ardmore Soccer Club, v hile V est Chester and Gettysburg took the Grizzlies into camp 4-1 and 4-2 respectively. The Temple game, in which the Bears and Owls battled two extra periods betore the latter booters won on a fluke free kick, was a heartbreaking one to lose. A quagmire represented the field when the Bsars tied Girard 6-6 in the opening contest, v hile Haverford Reserves held the locals to a scoreless deadlock later in the season. The booters rolled up 17 goals to their opponents' 20. 127 Wilbur F. Wire Soccer Manager THE GIRARD GAME Doc Baker's hooters were slow in getting organized in tho opening tilt and almost threw away a sloppy game to the Girard soccermen. Played in a field of mire, the ball was almost heavy as lead and before the Grizzlies could get their short passing attack functioning, the Philadelphians had piled up a 3-0 lead, holding it tightly as the Bears started to click, reducing the margin to one goal by halftime. The second half found the Grizzlies slow in getting started again and the Girard boys had worked up a 6-2 lead before the Bakermen started clicking in earnest, zooming four goals into the Girard net in no time to tie the count, 6-6, being deprived of victory only by the final whistle. Captain Fisher tallied three times, Schaffer twice, and Boy-sen once for the home club. THE WEST CHESTER GAME The strong West Chester Teachers invaded the Bears' field a week later and had a good deal of trouble in stopping the Baker booters v ith a 4-1 victory. The absence of Fisher and Schaffer, because of injuries, from the Grizzly lineup hurt the locals' chances somewhat who despite a high wind kept the highly touted teachers on the run most of the tilt. Chestnut tallied for the Bears. THE F. AND M. GAME In a game replete with thrills, near-fights, and fine teamwork on the part of Ursinus, the Grizzly shin-busters avenged a former defeat and subdued F. and M. 2 to 1 in a rough and tumble affair on the local field. The superiority of the Bears v as evident by the fact that the visitors had the ball in Ursinus' territory on rare occasions, while only the fine defensive work of Savage, F. and M. goalie, prevented the score from being much worse. Fisher scored both goals for the Bears. Schaffer and Burns featured with some good footwork, v hile George and Brian made it tough for the Nevonian linemen in their attsmpted offensive tactics. THE SWARTHMORE RESERVE GAME The Bears journeyed to Swarthmore for their first away game, and nosed out the Garnet Reserves 1 to 0. although the score is not indicative of the superiority the Bears showed over their opponents. Exceptional work on the part of the Swarthmore goalie and wild kicking on the part of the Grizzly 128 forwards kept the score from mounting. Fisher was again the scorer for the Bears. THE TEMPLE GAME In the only overtime tilt of the season the Baker-men were detracted from the win column by the Temple University eleven on the Northeast High field. There was little to choose from between the two clubs, both yielding to the offensive attacks of the other, and from start to finish it was a deadlock. At the end of the regular time, the count was tied at 4 all, but in the second extra period, the Owls won out 5-4 on a lluke free kick which should have never been a goal had the Ursinus booters been awake. The whole team played a great game against the Owls, and proved to be a dangerous club when clicking properly. Burns, with two goals, and Boyson and Schalfer with one each were the Ursinus point scorers. THE GETTYSBURG GAME The Bullets set the Bears back for their third and last loss of the season by a 4-2 count. The Grizzly defense was unusually weak in the opening stages of the game and the visitors had a three goal lead before the first half was nearly completed. In the final half the Bakermen looked more like the club that played Temple, and although they could not overtake the Bullets, Burns and George tabbed goals for the Bears as they finished strongly. THE HAVERFORD RESERVE GAME In an abbreviated game at Haverford because of darkness, the Grizzly soccerites looked at their worst, and could not click offensively enough to oven score on the Main Liners, the game ending in a scoreless deadlock. The Bears outpassed their rivals, but scoring punch was woefully missing. THE ARDMORE S. C. GAME In the final game of the season, the Ursinus hooters brought themselves around to the win column once more with a well-deserved 1-0 victory over the strong Ardmore Soccer Club. The contest was close, hard, and iast throughout, with Fisher tallying the lone point in the third quarter. An exceedingly high wind made playing conditions difficult, but the Bears gradually wore their oldor opponents down, and in the final quarter were bombarding the Ardmore goal mouth with gusto. 129 CROSS Start of tho F. M. moot at tho gym. Manager Hopnor. with papor. chocking on times of runners. one time one of the strongest sports on the Ursinus athletic roster, cross-country has taken a decided drop in the past two seasons, and in 1934 the harriers were probably at tho lowest ebb since the organization of the sport back in 1929. Lack of experienced material severely handicapped Coach Stan Omwake, who had only Captain McLaughlin, Wynkoop, and Neiman from the '33 squad back on the team this fall. Bill Bown. a new comer, strengthened matters somewhat, but in both dual meets in which the Ursinus hill and dalers participated, they were severely beaten. Although the season may be considered far from successful, the fact that tresh-men were unable to participate in varsity meets this year probably hurt the harrier's chances to some extent. Ursinus finished a poor second in the Conference meet again, which F. and M. carried with a clean sweep of the first five places. THE F. AND M. MEET In the season's first meet, held the same day the Grizzlies met the Lancaster Roses in both football and soccer, the Ursinus hill and dalers failed to emulate the other teams with a victory, as the May-ser-coached clan swept to an easy victory, 16 to 39. Ursinus was saved from a shut-out by the plucky running of Neiman, who overtaxed himself in the last mile to finish fifth in the four and a half mile grind.

THE LEHIGH MEET The Bear harriers journeyed to Bethlehem on Oct. 27 and showed up miserably against the Lehigh runners, who made a clean sv eep of matters, winning 15 to 40 for a perfect score. Five Lehigh men, with Boyer in the van, came in ahead of Neiman, who was again the first Grizzly harrier to cross the finish line. The Lehigh runners were exceptionally well-balanced. THE CONFERENCE MEET Franklin and Marshall, placing the first five men with ease, took top honors in the Conference meet, as Ursinus watched the Lancastrians take the first leg of the second Conference Cup. Wynkoop, of the Bears, surprised and finished sixth, while McLaughlin, Neiman, Bown. and Reynolds, finished in seventh, eighth, ninth, and eleventh places respectively to win points for the Bears. F. and M. scored 15 points, Ursinus 41, and Dickinson took a poor last with 64. Frey, of F. and M., was again the individual winner of the meet. A new event was held in the form of a handicap meet between the runners on the Ursinus squad. A gold medal was awarded to the winner of the meet, in which not only the varsity but also the frosh harriers were allowed to participate. Neiman copped the medal by turning in the best time of the meet, while Ridgway, with a minute handicap, took second place over Captain McLaughlin, who started from scratch. 131 % % Grizzly courlinon lined up in foulshooting practice.

No better fitting description of Ralph Horse” Chase's 1935 Grizzly court clan could be used in reviewing the season of one of the best teams with one of the poorest records in Ursinus basketball history. The precedent the football team set for not winning games that should have been won seemed to be carried into the basketball season judging from the record made by the '35 basketeers. Three of thirteen contests were all that the Grizzly courtsters could annex as victories, and likewise three of these thirteen contests were all that the Bears really deserved to lose. The other seven games were a toss-up between Ursinus and the opposition until time for the final gun and it was then that the opposition put the finishing touches on the score and left the floor victorious. It hardly seems possible that one team could lose three extra- Coach Horsa Chase tossing up ball bolv oon his 'big'’ boys. Cliff Calvert forward, ar.d Captain P.oy Johnson, conlor. period games in one season, drop four more by any margin from one to four points, and score a total of 495 points to the opponents' 514. only 19 points difference, and still win only three games. Yet such was the case and the fond hopes the Chasemen had for taking the Eastern Pennsylvania Basketball League crown were quickly shattered after Gettysburg, Lebanon Valley, Drexel, F. and M., and Muhlenberg, in rapid succession, had nosed out the Bears ir. heart-breaking games. The Grizzlies pounced on Albright in the league 132 opener for a 53-36 victory, swamped Drexel late in the second half of the league, 37-16, and shellacked Lebanon Valley in the last tilt of the season, 51-40, but try as they might in the other games, the best they could do was to come dangerously close. In league standing, Ursinus ended up in a triple tie for fifth place, far from her pre-season hopes. Captain Roy Johnson again led his teammates in scoring with 131 points, and despite several bad nights, ranked third for the third consecutive year among the league's high scorers. He, along with Covert and Fisher, will be the only losses suffered to the courtmen by graduation. Cliff Calvert and Hooper Grenawalt have been elected co-captains for the 1936 aggregation. With a little more experience for the sophomores who showed up well this season and at least half a chance with the rabbit's foot, the Bears have an excellent chance to break up the jinx that seems to have been hovering over the basketball team for the last two seasons, and to stir up some genuine trouble in the league next year. ST. JOSEPH'S GAME Harry Brian, manager of tho 193S hard luck baskeiocrs. In the only non-league game of the season, the untried Grizzlies journeyed to Hawkland and gave Penn's conquerors plenty of trouble before cracking in the waning minutes, losing 41-33. McMenamin, Hawk forward, played havoc with the Ursinus defense under the basket, counting up 21 points. The Bears looked exceptionally good for an opening game.

The Grizzlies were doing everything but kicking them in at the Reading Y floor, anc the Lions never had a chance. Heiges, soph forward, scintillated with 15 points. Every member of the squad saw action. THE GETTYSBURG GAME Bears and Bullets once more, and again the latter subdued the Chase-coached Conference aspirants. Nip and tuck describes this hard fought tilt on the local floor, but Fish of the Breamites sunk four free throws in the last two minutes to clinch the contest for the visitors. 36-32. THE LEBANON VALLEY GAME Over-confidence and carelessness literally gave the Annville cagers a 41-37 victory in the late stages of a game played at Lebanon. The Bears blew a five point lead in a free-fouling contest with three minutes to go. and dropped their second league game. THE DREXEL GAME Two extra periods and two full teams wore not enough to put the Dragons in their places, and another tilt went by the boards. 30-29. The second stringers started, but couldn't cope with the Engineers in their chicken coop” gym. It took the entire second half for the regulars to tie the count. Tworzydlo sank a long one after the final gun sounded, to make the defeat even more heart-breaking. THE F. AND M. GAME A point a minute would be putting it mildly in this free-scoring fuss. Both teams had an on night par extraordinare as the Grizzlies again blew an early half 12 point lead to allow the Nevonians to tie up the fray. The second extra period game of the season saw the visitors nose out the Bears 50-46, in the best played tilt of the year. Every player had his share of points, but Captain Johnson was particularly impressive with 18 markers. THE MUHLENBERG GAME The league-leading Mules were plenty lucky to carry off the bacon in this blood-for-blood entanglement. With seconds to go, Leibensperger, beanpole center for the Dutchmen, dropped in a twin-pointer to v in for his mates, 37-36. as the Ursinus team played the visitors off their feet most of the v ay.

The Bears pushed the incompetent Lion outfit around with ease, only to get decidedly sloppy and allow the visitors to close up a 14 point lead. The Lions then won out in another extra period game, 37-35. THE MUHLENBERG GAME The Ursinus stock went down a few more points, as they were tumbled by the Allentown collegians, 49-34. away from home. This was the first bad defeat for the Chase cagers who again sported a six point lead at half-time. Costello stood out for the Grizzlies for all around fine play. THE DREXEL GAME Well, we can't lose forever! And in trimming the Dragons in their return game, the Grizzly courtmen made the Philadelphians look like a junior high outfit, smothering them under, 37-16. Johnson again wracked up 18 points, as the Ursinus defense stopped Drexel cold with a single field goal in the first half. THE GETTYSBURG GAME Ursinus was lost on Gettysburg's 10 acre field house and didn't know what a point looked like for the first 15 minutes. The Bullet sharpshooters plus their double pivot plays laid the Chasemen low by the count of 59 to 33. the worst beating of the year. THE F. AND M. GAME The second game of the week-end trip resulted in the second defeat, but the court weary Bears had F. and M. guessing until the final gun barked. Heiges and Calvert, with 10 points apiece, bore the scoring brunts and the Lancastrians were lucky to win. 42-39. THE LEBANON VALLEY GAME Ending the disastrous seasin in gallant fashion, the Grizzly cagers overcame an early Lebanon Valley lead, and sent Chief Metoxm’s warriors home with a 51-40 scalping. Captain Johnson ended his Ursinus cage career brilliantly sotting a home court record in points with 22. Heiges, Grenawalt, and Costello also played a fine brand of ball for the Ursinus team, and with Calvert and Tworzydlo, should develop into a formidable combination next season. 13S Pierce counting tho pounds as Turner weighs in before practice. Bradford practicing a scissors hold on Bassrr.an. WRESTLING JNJURIES and inexperienced material were factors sufficient enough to label the 1935 Ursinus wrestling season not too successful. Coach Kuhrt Wieneke's matmen were able to nab only one victory this current season, while a tie with Gettysburg and five defeats sustained at the hands of Penn, Haverford, Temple, Lafayette, and F. and M. comprised the remainder of the record. Johns Hopkins was the team to succumb to the Bears. The local grapplers chalked up 92Vi points as against their opponents' 135 2. The first blow that hurt the matmen was the inability of Captain-elect Sam Levin to wrestle because of a football injury sustained last fall. Sam had been holding down the 175-pound berth and consequently the vacancy left Coach Wieneke to groom a new man for the position. Johnny Grimm, a junior, filled the position very capably only after he had had tv o or three bouts' experience. Tom Hepner the 145-pounder, and Reynolds, Bears' flyweight, both were forced to give up wrestling in mid-season due to injuries sustained in combat, v hile Pierce couldn't make the weight comfortably in the 135-pound class and abandoned his post to further complicate matters. Inexperienced men had to fill these 136 Lipltin and Reynolds exercising before practice in the wrestling room. Kravitz and Hopner dotting a workout typical of all practice sessions. positions as best they could, but the changes hurt the grapplers considerably. Nevertheless, there were four constant threats who participated in every meet and kept Ursinus in the running to help counterlxtlar.ee the numerous injuries. They wore Herman Reds Bassman, burly 165-pounder who acceded to the captaincy in place of Levin. Gene Bradford, 155-pounder, Moon Turner, lightweight, and Alex Kravitz, heavyweight. Bassman, a junior, lost his first bout this season since his freshman year, and was again the team's high scorer. He has been re-elected captain for the 1936 grapplers. Turner. Kravitz, Hepner, and Wire, the latter a substitute in the 126-pound class, will be the only men lost by graduation, so that the experienced men remaining should give the Bears a much stronger aggregation next year. This year the College sent two men to the National Intercollegiate Wrestling Tourney held at Lehigh on March 22-23. Bassman and Bradford were designated to go, but the experience of the strong western college grapplers was too much for any of the eastern teams, let alone the Ursinus representatives. However, Reds gave a good account of himself by defeating the Big Ten champion from Illinois before succumbing in the quarter finals. 137 Kuhn Wieneke Coach oJ Wrestling THE PENN MEET In the opening meet of the season, the Grizzly grunt and groaners were no match for the powerful University of Pennsylvania matmen, and the V ieneke proteges were defeated by a 22 to 6 score. The Ursinus points were scored by Gene Bradford m the i 55 pound class, who gained an 8 minute time advantage over his opponent, and by Captain Herman Bassman in the 165 pound division, who also won with an 8 minute time advantage. THE HAVERFORD MEET The Bear grapplers stacked up against a stronger Haverford team than was expected in the second meet, and the Main Liners downed the Grizzlies by the close score of 18 to 16, each team winning four of the bouts, Haverford gaining one more fall than did Ursinus. Turner, in the 126 pound division, and Bradford garnered time advantages for the Bears, while Bassman and Kravitz, in the unlimited class, each made short work of their opponents by gaining falls in less than 2 minutes. THE JOHNS HOPKINS MEET In the first and only victory of the season for the Wieneke matmen, the local outfit subdued the grapplers from Johns Hopkins in the Thompson-Gay gym by a 26-6 score. Frank Reynolds, in the 118 pound class, Tom Hepner, in the 145 pound division, and Alex Kravitz, heavyweight, turned in falls for the Grizzlies, while Captain Bassman and Johnny Grimm, in the 175 pound class, gained time advantages over their opponents. The visitors failed to place a wrestler in the 126 pound class, which bout Turner v on by forfeit. THE TEMPLE MEET The Ursinus wrestlers were able to score only 7V points against Bill Saltzman's Temple matmen in the season's fourth meet, as the Cherry and White outfit picked up 22‘ 2 points and threw in a sideshow for good measure to amuse the Collegeville audience. Despite the score, the meet was exceptionally close, with Moon Turner, v restling in the 138 135 pound class for the first time, losing a tough fall in the second extra period, while Hepner and Dome-triates wrestled 16 gruelling minutes with honors even, the bout being called a draw. Captain Bass-man and Bradford won their bouts on time, the latter winning his over Abie Harris, former Ursinus frosh football luminary and newsboy. THE GETTYSBURG MEET The most thrilling and bloodiest meet of the season closed the grappling activities at the Thompson-Gay gym for 1935 as the Ursinus mat men tied Gettysburg, 20-20, in a meet in which all eight bouts were falls. After the visitors had disposed of the first two Bears in rapid order, they got a gift of 5 points in the 135 pound class when Turner allowed himself to be pinned after he had outclassed his Bullet rival for nine and a half minutes. Hepner won the next bout on default when Soboleskv used an illegal hold and dislocated his arm, while Bradford, Bassrnan, and Kravitz knotted the count by gaining falls over their opponents in hair-raising matches. THE LAFAYETTE MEET Turner, Bradford, and Bassrnan, the most consistent winners on the team, were the only Grizzly matmen to turn in victories at Easton in the match with Lafayette. The former two won on time advantages, while Bassrnan pinned his rival in 2 minutes and 18 seconds. Final score: 19-11, in favor of Lafayette. THE F. AND M. MEET The last meet of the season was one in which the Bears looked at their worst. Reynolds, Wire, and Hepner were all on the injured list by this time, while Captain Bassrnan was forced to default his match to Werner of the Nevonians due to illness. This marked the first time that Reds had dropped a bout since his freshman year. Tiger Turner wrestled two extra periods in order to defeat Rupp of the Lancastrians, while Johnny Grimm turned in the other Bear victory with an 8 minute time advantage over his rival. Final score: 28-6, with the Bears on the short end. 139 Top: Captain Mickey Shuman, ci the '3-1 nine.

VARSITY QOACH JING JOHNSON'S 1934 baseball club did not exactly live up to the pre-season j;rodictions ot a successful season when it won only four of the eleven games played. The Bear stick-men, boasting of one of the strongest pitching staffs in collegiate baseball, were shy on the batting end in most of tho tilts, and coupled with a bit of erratic fielding, the Grizzlies dropped four games that from an Ursinus pitching standpoint should have been well-deserved victories. The Bears garnered victories over Swarth-more, Lehigh, Bucknell, and the Alumni, while Rutgers. Temple, Juniata, Albright, and Villanova twice defeated the John-sonmen. As a matter of interesting comparison, one finds that the Ursinus tossers scored 68 runs for the season as against only 71 for their opponents, a remarkable record when one considers that they lost almost twice as many tilts as they won. All of which goes to prove that the pitching staff did more than its share while the batsmen collapsed in all but three games. The only real outburst of hitting power was evidenced in the Lehigh rout in v hich the Grizzlies blasted out 18 runs in a seven 140 BASEBALL inning affair to look like a genuine House of Gotham. Roy Johnson, Lefty Trumbore, Lefty Beyer, and Don Mowrey handled the pitching assignments capably enough, especially the first two mentioned, and all but Beyer gained at least one victory during the season. Captain Mickey Shuman, for tv o years the regular backstop, but transferred to first base last season, and Bill O'Donnell, outfielder, were the only regulars lost by graduation, and prospects for future seasons v ere bright due to the great number of sophomores and juniors on the squad. As far as the Eastern Pennsylvania Baseball League was concerned, the Ursinus nine ended up in third position, with one victory out of three league games played. Two other league frays were rained out. The team's individual batting leader was Johnson, who played in the outfield when not doing mound duty. Russ Fisher, stocky little catcher, was elected to captain the 1935 diamond-men. Both he and Trumbore, ace southpaw of the hurling staff, were given big league tryouts last summer and both made favorable impressions with their performances. 141 Tof: Gonslor. secondsacker; McLaughlin, another infielder; O'Donnell, outfielder.

J THE SWARTHMORE GAME Ursinus raised tho curtain on the 1934 diamond campaign by edging out an 8-6 decision over Swarthmore in a loosely played tilt on the Garnet field. Roy Johnson did mound duty for the Bears until the seventh, when he became wild, and Trum-bore finished up with some superb flinging. Johnson and Gensler did some heavy stickwork for the Bears. THE LEHIGH GAME A cold wind urged the Ursinus swatsmiths on to big deeds in the third game of the season. The Bears won their first home game from the Engineers, 18-7, sending three Lehigh hurlers to the showers with a 15 hit attack. Mowrey went the full route for Jing Johnson's tossers, while his mates scored 12 runs in the first three frames to leave no doubt as to the outcome. THE VILLANOVA GAME Although the count read 5-1 against them, the Ursinus-Villanova tussle was closer than the score would indicate. The 'Cats bunched seven hits in three innings for their runs, enabling them to get the best of Trumbore's fine pitching. Sacks poled a long four-base ply in the sixth for the Grizzlies' lone tally.

THE RUTGERS GAME Before a prep school crowd of 3,000, the Ursinus nine stacked up against the strong Rutgers University team at New Brunswick and lost a close struggle, 4 to 3. Lefty Trumbore again pitched brilliant ball and deserved a bettei fate as he fanned nine and scattered the Rutgers' bingles well. It was a see-saw battle from start to finish, with the Bears almost stealing the bacon in a ninth inning uprising. THE TEMPLE GAME Ursinus dropped its second consecutive tilt by a one run margin as Temple's Owls nosed out the locals 5-4, in the Mount Airy stadium. Johnson pitched for the Grizzlies and also bore the brunt of the visitors' hitting attack, but weakened in the eighth to allow two enemy runs to cross the pan and sew up the contest. The Bears outhit their rivals seven to three, but seven free tickets to first helped the cause of the victors considerably. THE LAFAYETTE GAME The Grizzly stickmen lost their third straight at the hands of Lafayette at Easton, 6-2. The game was even up as far as hitting v ent, but the unsteadiness of Beyer, Bear hurler, aided the Leopards in a three run rally in the fifth, which spelled victory. No Ursinus batter could collect more than one hit. 142 Sweopy Cubborloy connects with on© of ling Johnson's offerings in Alumni game for a homo run. THE JUNIATA GAME In the first league game of the year, the Ursinus tossors again failed to take advantage of superior hitting and dropped a 7-4 decision to Juniata, although they outhit the Indians ten to six. Roy Johnson pitched good ball and pounded out a homer and a double to lead his mates at bat, but the Bears faltered in the pinches and dropped their fourth straight game. THE BUCKNELL GAME Cliff Calvert's ninth inning triple with men on second and third pushed two runs over the plate and gave the Grizzlies their first league triumph as they conquered Bucknell. 7 to 5. at Lewisburg. Lefty Trumbore did the twirling for Ursinus and fanned fifteen Bisons, although six passes aided the Herd's scoring column somewhat. Johnson socked his second homer in as many games, as the Bears nicked the Bison pitcher for fourteen safeties. THE ALBRIGHT GAME Tough luck again settled on Trumbore's salary arm as Albright made the best of seven scant hits, bunched in two innings, to nip the Johnsonmen 7-4 and win the Eastern Pennsylvania Baseball Conference with a clean slate. Lefty whiffed thirteen batters, but the inability of his mates to tab the apple nullified his efforts. Not until the eighth, when the game was already lost, did the Grizzlies start to pelt the ball; they completed the day's scoring with a three run rally, capped by Johnson's third homer in as many games. THE VILLANOVA GAME Plenty of heavy hitting by both clubs featured the second Bear-'Cat fray of the season as the Villa-novans pounded tv o Ursinus pitchers, Mowrey and Beyer, for sixteen hits and a 12-9 victory. The out- come v as in doubt until the final pitched ball, as the Bears collected thirteen bingles themselves among which were McLaughlin's circuit swat and triples by Fisher, Gensler, and Beyer. The visitor's early lead was too large for the Johnsonmen to overcome, however. THE ALUMNI GAME The Old Timers assembled during commencement week-end and gave the varsity stickmen a run for their money in the season's tailender. In an abbreviated contest, filled with freak plays and clowning on the part of the grads, the Grizzly batters blasted Coach Jing Johnson, former big time hurler, off the mound and managed to hold on to a one run lead until the end, winning 8-7. The Old Timers showed plenty of stuff at bat, but v ere a little wobbly in the outer pastures. R. Norman Turner, Managor of Ursinus' 1935 varsity baseball team. 143 TRACK the first time in several years, the Ursinus track team won a dual meet in the spring of 1934 and despite relative poor showing in the other meets, the season was labeled a success because of this event. St. Joseph's was the team that fell before the Grizzly squad by an overwhelming score, but Drexel and F. and M. took the measure of the Bears in the other dual meets, while the Ursinus aggregation finished third in a triangular meet in which West Chester and La Salle were the other teams. The Grizzlies did not journey to the Conference last season because of lack of sufficient material in the running events. The pictures almost tell the story of the season in themselves. In the upper left scene we see Captain Wally Tropp breaking the tape in the 220-yard dash at Drexel as Captain-elect Reggie Miller noses out his Dragon opponent to cop second place.

This was the first meet of the season for Ursinus. Irv Sutin, in the next picture, is leading at this particular point in the gruelling two-mile run at F. and M., but he faltered in later laps and gave way to his Blue and White opponent. THE WEST CHESTER INVITATION MEET The West Chester invitation meet, in which La Salle and Ur-sinus participated, was almost wholly a walkav ay for the Teachers. Ten first places were chalked up against the two opposing teams, and the final scores read: West Chester, 94 1 6; La Salle, 37 1 3; Ursinus, 22Vz. The Bears were hardly in shape to cope with the well-balanced Teachers team, but two local performers succeeded in capturing three first places to score the bulk of the Grizzlies' points. Johnny Grimm sped to a victory in his specialty, the 120-yard high hurdles. and also landed the broad jump. Rube Levin bested all shot putteis and won with a toss of over 41 feet. Bears count up points against St. Joes Hawks. (Top): Pol© clearing the bar. (Middle): Grimm setting record in high timbers. (Bottom): Miller winning the javelin. THE ST. JOSEPH'S MEET In the only home meet of the year, the Ursinus track and field performers made history by trimming St. Joseph's handily, 80V4 to 451 2. The Bears made practically a clean sweep of the field and jumping events to sew up the meet, while the runners of both teams were evenly matched. Captain Tropp took the meet honors, v inning both sprints and grabbing seconds in the quarter mile, javelin, and discus throws. Grimm captured three firsts, winning both hurdles events and the broad jump. In the high hurdles, Johnny sst a new College record of 16 seconds flat. Levin, Miller, and Gaumer v ere other winners for Ursinus in the shot, javelin, and high jump respectively. 146 THE F. AND M. MEET In this, the last meet of the season. Ursinus was totally outclassed, and failed to score a first place in the track events. F. and M. shellacked the Grizzlies 87 to 39 as the Bears were able to win first places in only the shot put, high jump, and javelin; Levin, Pole, and Miller being the winners. The Nevonians were exceptionally strong in the dashes and distance runs, and Ursinus fared badly in all running events. Lack of track material was noticeably evident in all the meets, and had the Bears enough track men to match their strong field group, Ursinus would have been a formidable foe. THE DREXEL MEET Not until the half mile was run off, the last event of the day, was the outcome of the Bear-Dragon track meet apparent. By winning that event, the Dragons won the meet, 69-57, but the stellar performances of Tropp, Grimm. Bradford, and Miller all but displaced the Engineers as winners. The Ursinus captain won the 440 and the 220, placed second in the 100, and grabbed thirds in the javelin and discus. Grimm, not satisfied with establishing a new track record for the high hurdles (16 seconds flat), also copped the low hurdles and finished second in the broad jump.

CARTER'S net-men scored two victories and suffered four defeats in their 1934 campaign, the second season since intercollegiate tennis was re-established at Ursinus. Both wins were obtained in matches with St. Joseph's College; the nimble netmen went down to defeat before the racquets of aggregations from Muhlenberg, Villanova, and Albright, twice. Two meets were rained out, one with Villanova and one with the Philadelphia College of Osteopathy. The racqueteers v ho did most of the playing were: Captain Ev Danehower, a senior, who held the number one position; Jess Heiges, a junior, number two; Jack Davison, a sophomore, number three; Mitch Fenimore, a freshman, number four; and Clayt Worster, another first-year man, number five. The team played its first match without any previous practice, as the Collegeville (Top!: Coach Carlo: wondering It Captain-elect Heiges' strings aro ready for action, as freshie Worster looks at his and ponders. (Middle): Captain Ev Danehower ready to servo a hot one. (Bottom): T. P. Glassmoyer, 1935 manager. courts were not in condition until late in the season. This spring's schedule as arranged by Thomas P. Glassmoyer, tennis manager, consists of eleven matches, an increase of three over last year. With the exception of Ev Danehov er, all of last season's racquet-wielders are again available. Freshmen, however, will not be allowed to participate. Prospects are excellent that the netmen will turn in more victories than they did in previous competition. Captain Danehowever, stacking up against exceptionally tough foes, won half his matches, while Davison had the best singles average of the season.

INTER-DORMITORY SPORTS 'J’HE inter-dormitory sports program, started two years ago, was continued with renewed vigor during the 1934-35 season and serves as a fitting accompliance to the varsity athletic program. The intra-mural program has now been arranged for five sports: football, basketball, foul-shooting, wrestling, and baseball, and all of the five dormitories and the day students have teams competing in these events. To give the inter-dorm program a big time complex, attractive trophies have been purchased by the College Athletic Association and will be awarded to the ultimate winner in each sport, with name of dorm and year in which it was won engraved on the side of the cup. The team which scores the most points in the dorm competition rates even better and receives a large, elaborate trophy as an award. The permanent location of these cups has been established in the newly-obtained trophy case in the science building lobby. Credits in physical training are now given to those students participating in dormitory athletics, and in this way, encourages practically every male in college to get into athletics of some kind. Last fall the Curtis Hall Marines v on the football championship to get a head start in the cup race, but Derr’s pigskin warriors were close on their heels. The basketball tourney was even more hotly contested, with the Day students taking top honors by virtue of two victories over Derr's Dogs, who again wound up in second place. The foul-shooting contest went to Curtis to boost their total considerably, while v restling honors went to Brodbeck, with hard-luck Derr pulling up in second place again, only one point behind. The baseball league will decide the winner of the dormitory program.

T?RESHMAN FOOTBALL for 1934 v as outstanding in no way except, perhaps, for its ill success, for the frosh gridders came through a season of four games with a record of no victories, tv o ties, and two defeats. The opening game of the season v as lost to a strong Perkiomen Prep team by the score of 9-0. The teams were apparently evenly matched, for the contest waged back and forth with no score until the last two minutes of the game. Then in a final spurt, Perkiomen rang up nine points by v ay of a field goal and a touchdown just before the final v histle blew. Ursinus was handicapped by the loss of Captain Nevergoll, Jensen, and Joll, all of whom were forced out of the game because of injuries. The following week, the Frosh eleven succeeded in holding Farm School to a 0-0 stalemate. Hampered by a slippery field, only tv o first downs were registered by either team. Ursinus v as within scoring distance once when Vacarro, mite quarterback, succeeded in driving the ball to the one-yard line. The play of Lipka and Vacarro in the backfield was outstanding. The finest showing v as made by the freshmen 152 on November 10, when they held a strong Brown Prep team to a scoreless tie. Fine defensive playing throughout the game prevented the opponents from getting into a scoring position. Despite the weakness of the Cubs' attack, they outplayed the Brown-ians for the most part. Fine punting on the part of Vacarro and Beddow for the Bears helped the cause of the frosh considerably. The final game of the season ended in a disastrous defeat, when a powerful Wyoming Seminary eleven overwhelmed the little Bears to the tune of 41-0. With a rain-soaked field added to their difficulties, the frosh failed to advance very far into the enemy territory. loll, Porambo, and Russo deserve special mention for determined defensive work, while Vacarro and Sholl were outstanding on the offensive.

FRESHMAN BASKETBALL basketball season was no more successful for the freshmen than the preceding football season, for with a total of eight games on their schedule, the little Bear quintet was able to ring up only two victories, defeating Wyomissing Polytechnic Institute and Perkiomen Prep, both on the home floor. The six remaining games were lost, usually by large scores; two to Wyoming Seminary, two to the Drexel Frosh, one to the Villanova Frosh, and one to Hill School. Despite the poor record, however, Swede Paul's outfit showed some good material in its ranks. Bod-ley, who acted as captain, held down the center position with excellent playing, while Ice Sholl proved himself one of the best guards seen on a freshman team for several years. Comparing scores, Ursinus tallied a total of only 204 points as compared with 296 for the opponents. Joe Sholl was high scorer for the Frosh with a total of 52 points, while Vacarro and Bcdley followed closely behind with 45 and 43 points respectively.

Of these three contests, the frosh nine won one and lost two. defeating Villanova in the first game of the year, 8-4. and losing to Hill School and Farm School, 9-5 and 14-10, respectively. All games v ere played on the opponents' fields, the return game on the home grounds with Villanova Frosh being the one cancelled because of bad weather. The freshman club was handicapped severely by the lack of good pitchers, Fisk and Quay, who did most of the tossing for the Cubs, being quite inexperienced. The outstanding players on the squad were Wildonger and Murray, both outfielders, who showed up well both in the field and at bat. Santoro, Pancoast, and Tworzydlo, all infielders, showed promise of developing into good varsity material also. Horse Chase coached the Cub tossers.

WOMEN’S ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION 'pHE WOMEN'S ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION, organ-ized in 1919, is an outgrowth of the Ursinus’ Women's Club and has for its purpose the stimulation of a keen interest in amateur athletics. Through sport it hopes to develop character, cooperation, and a sense of true sportsmanship. Under the new constitution, only those who have gained sufficient points in athletic participation are admitted as members. This year the W. A. A. has become much more active and held four meetings instead of the usual two. One of them was in the form of a scavenger hunt; the others, however, were not entirely social. Rewards for athletics and sportsmanship were made and recommendations of the Council were approved. The Council of the W. A. A. acts as a governing board for all women's athletics, and is composed of the officers of the association, one representative from each class, and the managers of the three women's sports. They are as follows: Prudence Dedrick, president; Sarah H. Keyser, vice-president; Virginia Fenton, secretary-treasurer; and Eleanor Lyle '35, Dons Roach '36, Silvia Erdman '37, Mary E.

HOCKEY 'J’HE 1934 hockey team, a member of the Philadelphia Field Hockey Association, enjoyed the usual The 1934 hockey team, a member of the Philadelphia Field Hockey Association, enjoyed the usual Ursinus up-and-down sport season as the Snell-coached outfit ended up in November with a 4-3-3 record. The Ursinus lassies played the leading hockey teams in the Philadelphia vicinity, and despite the fact that many of the veterans from the '33 club were gone. Miss Snell, with the aid of the new assistant. Smo Ouderkirk who really is much better looking than the picture on the opposite page would have one believe produced an aggregation that enjoyed a fairly successful season despite losses to Beaver. Bryn Mav r. and the Germantown Cricket Club. Victories v ere obtained at the expense of Drexel, Moravian, Swarthmcre, and the Saturday Morning Club, while three ties (which entitled the hockeyites to membership in the Ursinus association of deadlocks along with the football and soccer teams) with the Philadelphia Country Club, the Alumnae, and Beaver, rounded out the 10 game schedule. Captain Bertha Francis in the upper left hand picture, is the foremost of five veterans v ho v ill be lost to next year's outfit by graduation. Bups has been a four year mainstay at center forward and played especially well this year as leader of the hockeyites. Other seniors who v ill be lost to the team are El Lyle, speedy v ing, Prue Dedrick, diminutive halfback, Alice Richard, veteran fullback, and IS: A bit of action in tho Philadelphia Country Club tilt.

Mid Godshall and Silvia Erdman. insides, Sarah H. Keyser, and Mary Billett. flashy freshman, halfbacks, and Gina Fenton, fullback. The positions of general nuisances were filled by Coalie Johnson, the local big black canine, who insisted on trying to eat the ball, and Spangler's mouse which caused a general panic on the side linos, especially when manager-elect Lucia was around. The gallant male cheering section also helped the Grizzly stick-sters on to big things. Bups Francis was the team's high scorer with 11 goals, and Mid Godshall was a close second with 7. Captain-elect Roach contributed 3 goals, 3 broken sticks and a yellow sweater to the cause. 1S9 THE BRYN MAWR GAME Rain and mud, two formidable opponents of all outdoor sports, predominated in the first hockey contest of the season as the Ursinus lassies dropped a slow, listless decision to Bryn Mawr, 4 to 1. Doris Roach made Ursinus' lone goal late in the second half while doing a sliding split over the mud-covorod field. It was the most decisive loss the Snell maidens suffered all season. THE SATURDAY MORNING CLUB GAME The second game was an easy one for the Grizzly lassies as Silvia Erdman, Bups Francis, and Mid Godshall scored a pair of goals apiece to defeat the Saturday Morning Club. 6 to 0. The Snell-Smo outfit clicked well together and showed a complete reversal of form from the previous week. THE ALUMNAE GAME The Old Timers were not quite so old and bent as one would suppose and the Alumnae celebrated their homecoming with a well-earned 3-3 tie with the varsity sticksters. Monty Blew and Babe Quay, last year's veterans, v ere the big guns for the Alumnae, while Captain Francis and Mid Godshall made the Ursinus points. THE BEAVER GAME The Grizzly maidens' ancient rival, Beaver, retained its jinx on the local hockeyites and turned a certain Ursinus victory into a 2-2 deadlock in the waning moments of the game in contest No. 4. 3oth teams were evenly matched and the play was close throughout. Captain Francis and El Lyle scored for the Ursinus team. THE GERMANTOWN C. C. GAME The second defeat of the season was suffered at the hands of the Germantown Cricket Club in a fast and furious game. The final count was 3 to 2, but the story might have been different had the Snell-coached team had its usual strength. The defense was weakened somewhat by the absence of Prue Dedrick, flashy halfback, who was ill. Misses Godshall and Francis again did the goal-getting for Ursinus. Mildred Grirvg Mar.agor oi Hockey 160 THE SWARTHMORE GAME For the first time in ten years the Grizzly hockey-ites qained a victory over the Swarthmore sticksters. The Garnet maidens were taken by surprise by the hard-fighting Grizzly outfit and after a scoreless first half, the locals went to work and via Mid Godshall's stick scored two counters to defeat the rival team, 2 to 1. THE BEAVER GAME The return game with Beaver ended up even more disastrously than the first one, and the Philadelphians sported a 2-1 victory at the end of the contest, for Ursinus' third defeat. Mid Godshall scored early in the game for the Grizziles' only point, but the Beaver maidens tied up the count at halftime and won out in a fast second half spurt. THE PHILA. COUNTRY CLUB GAME The third deadlock for the Sncll-Smo girls v as a 2-2 affair with the Philadelphia Country Club. Ursinus did not show the same offensive drive that it did earlier in the season and threw away many scoring opportunities. Misses Erdman and Godshall tallied for the Grizzly shin-shiners. THE MORAVIAN GAME The Grizzly maidens went goal crazy and rolled up 10 counters to none for an inexperienced Moravian team, for their third victory of the year. The visitors had never had a hockey team before and were no match for the Snell-coached outfit. Bups francis was high scorer with six goals. THE DREXEL GAME In another rainy and muddy contest, the Grizzly maidens rang down the curtain in their 1934 campaign with a comparative easy 3-0 victory over Drexel's Dragonettes. The Ursinus defense v as so strong that the early lead the Grizzlies had built up never v as in danger. Dorey Roach and Captain Francis scored in the initial half, and El Lyle completed the scoring with a timely shot in the final period. Coach Snell assembles her court candidates togothor for a little pow wow on how to handle the ball. Left to right they are: Godshall, Francis. Ganser (Manager). Snell, Roach. Dedrick Bachman.

Maybe it was the new suits that did it, or maybe it was the masculine rooting section present at all the home games; nevertheless, no matter what it v as. Coach Snell's scrappy 1935 basketball aggregation has completed a season of which it may be justly proud. Save for the guard positions, which were very capably filled by Gina Fenton, Edna Meyers, a freshman sensation, and Alice Richard, the co-ed bask-eteers started the season with a veteran team. Captain Prue Dedrick and Doris Roach, short but speedy centers, and the forwards, Bups Francis, high scorer, M:d Godshall. Silvia Erdman. and Sarah H. Keyser, all deadly shots, gave the co-ed coach plenty of material to work with, and it is no wonder that the season v as so highly successful. Of the regulars, only Captain Dedrick, Francis, and Richard v ill be lost to the squad by graduation. Mid Godshall has been elected captain for next year. The season opened w.th a practice game with the Company L girls from Phoenixville. Ursinus' 18-17 victory does not look impressive from a scoring standpoint, but Coach Snell used her entire squad in order to pick her varsity combination for the season. Bryn Mav r sent the Grizzly co-eds home on the short end of a 31-30 score in the second game of the campaign, winning out in the last few minutes as 162 Mid Godshall rolled up most of the Ursinus points in the thrilling tilt. The following week Silvia Erdman sank six sensational baskets to practically defeat Swarthmore's lassies single-handed, 21-16, and start Ursinus on a long winning streak. The Ursinus court ladies kept on their winning ways and sent Drexel recoiling in the next contest by a 25 to 11 margin in a slow affair in which about the only thing that flashed v as the newspaper camera trying to snap the Philadelphians' twin guards. The big game of the season was the 24-16 win over the Beaver basketeers on the opponents' floor. The Grizzly lassies, led by Mid Godshall, collected a safe lead in the first half which was played in the new two-division court style. The second half, played in the traditional style, was slower and more closely contested. The Dutch maids from Lebanon Valley were no match for the Bear sextette as the latter team walked away with an easy victory to the tune of 44-18; the most convincing triumph of the year. After four consecutive victories, the Ursinus cagers lost their second game of the campaign, a return engagement to Beaver, 21-20. It was the second time they v ere defeated by a one-point margin. The game v as hard-fought throughout and replete with thrills as Bups Francis accounted for the majority of the home team's points. A 33-27 triumph over Moravian set the Snell outfit back on the winning track again as the season neared the finish line. Misses Keyser and Francis led the Grizzlies' scoring attack. The most satisfying achievement of the season v as the exciting victory over Rosemont, the first Ursinus triumph over that team in seven years. It was without a doubt the fastest tilt of the year and Captain Dedrick was stopping so short at the division line that she constantly fell over it. The score, 32-31, is an ample indication of the nature of the game. The last game with Mount St. Joseph's was an unexpected defeat. The Grizzly maids led through out the game and apparently had built up a safe lead only to have the visitors rally in the waning moments of play and via some classic shots v in out by a 23-21 count. Piuo Dedrick Live wire captain and center for the Grizzly sextette 163 Captain Marion Blow Lydia Gantor Ruth LeCron 1st singles position who teamed up with Bups 3rd singles position Francis in doubles combination TENNIS 'J’ENNIS at Ursinus obeys the dictates of the weatherman. Rain and damp weather almost washed the Snell-coached co-eds off the courts in several of the 1934 matches and completely washed the rest of the matches right off the schedule. Nevertheless, by winning three out of five, the season could be classed as successful, as Captain Monty Blew and her mates won fourteen of the twenty-five individual matches played. The captain, who was the only one lost to the team by graduation, played in the first singles position. Bups Francis, and Ruth LeCron, a freshman, played positions two and three respectively, while Lydia Ganser teamed up with Bups Francis in the doubles combination. Mid God-shall, Vivian Jensen, and Marjorie Gotwals also played several matches, but not enough to win letters. With only one outdoor practice because of damp weather preceding it. Coach Snell took her racquet-eers to N.Y.U. for the opening match of the season and between the raindrops the Grizzly lassies managed to win out by a 3-2 margin. Manager Hat Stapp had a tough time procuring enough rain coats for the team as the usual thunderstorm broke loose right after the match, but managed to get her drenched team to the New Yorker without mishap. With a bright sun shining for the next two matches, the Ursinus netsters had difficulty in playing due to the unexpected glare from Old Sol, so that both Swarthmore and Beaver took the Grizzly coeds into camp by the identical scores of 4-1. The Snell outfit clambered back into the victory column in the next match with Drexel's Dragonettes, 5 to 0, as an extremely cloudy day offered a perfect setting for the Ursinus ladies of the court. In the final match of the season, the Ursinus lassies got revenge on Beaver in a return engagement, and between thunder showers sent the visitors home with one victory out of five matches played.

INTRA-MURAL SPORTS 'J’HE intra-mural athletic program for the feminine sports enthusiasts has not been slighted in the least bit as the College endeavois to make its athletics for all policy a reality. Not only do the Ursi-nus co-eds engage in inter-dormitory contests, but the four classes place teams in hockey, basketball, and baseball to create as keen a rivalry as possible between the weaker sex along athletic lines. As yet, no awards have been provided for the winning classes and dorms in the intra-mural contests, but if the stimulation of interest among the fair sex keeps increasing in the sports programs, one may rest assured that woman’s intuition will devise some method for creating a sugar daddy, or what have you, to provide for cups, medals, banquets, or possibly a trip to Bermuda for the winning teams. At least it's worth hoping for and is liable to stir up more interest among the more sedate young ladies who see no fun in swinging a hockey stick or diving after a basketball. The freshman class seems to have the most athletic talent of the class teams, probably due to the fact that they’re still young and frivolous, for the green ribbon lassies captured both the hockey and basketball championships this year, to carry off practically all the laurels. The juniors (the present class of 1935) copped the baseball crown last spring, subduing the sophs in a close contest. The dormitories are represented only in basketball as yet. and to the day study goes the ladies' court championship. 165 THE FEATURES WE DEPART FROM THE REGULAR ROUTINE OF COLLEGE LIFE TO REMEMBER THOSE ALMOST INEXPRESSIBLE THINGS WE TERM FEATURES.

The part, portrayed by Clyde Straub, was unique in itself, as was the entire play in its makeup. Oliver, the eldest son, played by Craig Johnston, runs the affairs of the family, and with the rest of the household brow-beats Richard as an insignificant individual and forces him to obey all trivial commands. It is in this situation that Nancy Blake (Troupiere Sipe) tries to connive ways and means of placing Richard on the top of the heap and permitting him to come into his own. The effort on her part to save his self-respect and gain his love brings many an interesting situation, while Richard’s efforts to turn the worm bring many a laugh. In the pictures we see (top) Oliver and Mark Winslow (Edward Knudsen) trying to make Alan Martin (Fred Schiele) see that Richard is a stupid soul; Katie, the maid (Helen Meyers), insert.

Despite all contrary predictions, the sun shone brightly all day, breaking all previous records and permitted the East Campus to assume its estate-like attitude with all the dignity of a true English lord's grounds. The theme of the May Pageant v as of the usual stock variety, except that the setting on the Lord's estate, wherein the rustics were permitted to dance, erect their May pole and select their queen, the Duchess of Grace (portrayed by Dolores Quay, '34), was exceptionally appropriate for the story.

Ihe Senior Class Play, brought to the Thompson-Gay stage a light comedy emulating English cockney folks in a setting of London's slums. It served as a fitting climax to the Senior Ball of the evening previous, just before the Christmas holidays, and its new type of cockney wit and humor, carried along by clever and pointed lines, capped an otherwise unsuccessful (financially speaking) Senior Week-end. The story deals with the lives of three doughboys, one of them delightfully shellshocked, trying to hide a partner in crime from the clutches of an American insurance agent. In conjunction with this it vividly portrays the family life of Mrs. Gubbins and her household, with a pleasing love plot entwined about the whole affair, mysteriously humorous as it was. Dr. and Mrs. Sibald also coached this production and unveiled some hitherto unknown dramatic talent in the class of '35.

HOW SIR DINK AND TIE OVERCAME THE DIRTY DRAGON Once upon a time, last November, a dirty dragon from the neighboring Duchy of Drexel crashed the upper portals of Patterson Plaza to witness the annual pigskin jousts thereon. The dragon was huge and powerful and roamed all over the place propelled by a million pseudopodia, shooting fire from its nostrils and wisecracks from its many mouths. Not only did it perform with extreme vulgarity before its own followers, but it became so bold as to come before the enemy stronghold and to challenge any of the brave knights to a battle to the death. Many fair ladies shuddered at the sight of the hideous dragon, v hile the ire of the Ursinus stalwarts, for at the jousts there were many stalwarts, was roused to the boiling point. Sir Dink and Tie, gallant Knight of the Square Bench and just returned from a search for the Holy Smoke, jumped down from beside Lady Marlene, Duchess of the Dormitory, and with mighty sword in one hand and mightier meat cleaver in the other, attacked the insipid monster down by the east goal posts. Long and furious v axed the bloody battle, for the dragon had many aides; but Sir Dink and Tie. not to be outdone, sounded his trusty French horn, and many hundred fold Knights of the Grizzly Bear did come to his rescue. For one full intermission the gory struggle lasted until finally gallant Sir Dink and Tie, wounded in many places himself, dealt a terrific blow to the monster's intestinal tract and followed with a left to the jaw. which told the story. The conquering horde soon pounced upon the fatally stricken dragon and rent it to pieces, carrying home pieces of its flesh as symbols of victory. Sir Dink and Tie then chased all the dragon's aides back to their SI. 10 seats and also returned home, a gallant hero and favored by many fair ladies. As the jousts continued, a warning went out that never again should there be seen or heard a dirty dragon on Patterson Plaza, or else—! 174 TO A PUMP HOUSE Ah. there it stands, sedate and pure, Aloof, yet has the common touch. Tho unpretentious, has a lure Which cannot be resisted, such As feudal castle served the wary Brigands, as a sanctuary. How many tales there could be told. Of forms which moved like beaten thralls. And only did they grow more bold When safe behind these sturdy walls; This wise old pump house knows them well, But deems it better not to tell. On balmy nights, when stars would gleam, And winds swept earthward from the skies. On the leeward side there could be seen A host of glowing fire-flies. Was always strange, that those contrary Fire-flies were stationary. A stranger on the campus might. Thinking that there was a place to rest, Draw nearer still for a better sight Then decide it futile; and that is best. For such is the crowd gathered there in the gloom. That nothing remains but standing room. We have a rendezvous with time At some far date, too far to see; Old memories then will be sublime. And life returned in reverie. And tho all else we may forget. Yon pump house we'll remember yet. So let it stand ’till the end of strife; A relic, yet a thing of grace. A rock in the avalanche of life, A boon to a smoking human race. May it never, never degenerate And be as indestructible as fate. Mitch Fenimore. 20 Years from Now—(Continued) 11.

The year 1934-1935 brings to our memories a year crowded with sleep, courses, and more sleep. Added attractions on this program were an exceptionally enigmatic football team, an overflowing of dumber frosh than usual, less Ersinus plague trouble than formerly, a successful Junior Week-end, and a new nurse without campus capsules. Important items were the deaths of Doctors Smith and Spangler, illness of Dr. Omwake. addition of Dr. Heiges to the professorial staff, and Kirby Page's attempt to socialize a downright capitalistic collitch. Among other things, Ersinus had co-captain-itis this year, it established a fraternity worthy to contain all loyal dramatists, and it witnessed the birth of Will LaMon and his College Club bers. We had to tolerate the famed arguments of H. A. Cooper and Rube Levin over the usual nothing-at-all in pol. science, and were saddened by the passing of the once-powerful Mudhens. The Lantern went big-time, the Varsity Club wont ritzy and presented a trophy case for all the cups the Grizzlies hope to win, while rushing week saw the largest single haul in history go to one Greek society. Mongoose Gregory and Scurry Bonham returned to campus for a day plus dink and tie, causing smiles and giggles; Snuffy Chipmunk Brandt crashed Gaff so often he finally bought the column, causing laughs and roars, while Minerva, Oscar's sweetheart, joined the ranks of motherhood and presented Stooge Knudsen and Derr Hall with four furred felines, causing excitement, consternation, and a new epoch in Ersinus history. We nominate for importance during the year: the Derr-South feud, via Gaff; the intimate Ruby (no adv.); the women's dormitory king- .

Ping pong, Price's new Pontiac, new lights in the library, no lights in the cans, touch football, a real freshman banquet, and Alex Leidy in Rec Hall were notable achievements. We had headline visitors all the way from Rev. Ranck to Julian Woodworth, and again came through the cold winter months ably supported with the antics of the Chase Slaughter House Corporation and Oscar Winkler's nickel machines. Prices of dances came down, and prices of corsages went up. all odds even, and the floor was no slippier than ever. Athletics took it on the chin, but did v e ever come through in debating. And the I. N. A. Conclave was the top presenting all the big shots in the journalistic field and the best dancers ever to stumble around Thompson-Gay Ballroom. There's no use of us bragging about the Penn victory, because right away someone reminds us of the St. Joe farce, so there you are. The most hits anybody had around Ersinus for many a moon was Derr's water brigade which daily washed the steps and certain individuals in their attempts to climb the Kling-aman-bapti .ed steps. But. we've had our wrestling bouts and baseball games, and group meetings and rushing season and radio debates and lousy meals and chapel programs and mid year exams and bull sessions and Hallowe'en parties and Senior Ball and Junior Prom and Double Door and Christmas Party and prayer meetings and dates and late dates and double dates and hamburgers and Whip Rahn's dumb questions and Pete Washko's giggolo antics and Bossier's suits cleaned and pressed and Twinkletoe's and Sammy's I.

T. von Barnum, who once rode a bicycle around the North Pole in 40 minutes, passed by Ersinus the other day with his famous collection of world wide curios, and stopped off long enough to enroll some of the local celebrities in his show-on-wheels. The local curios, longloved by campus followers, were loathe to cut classes for the next two months to join Prof. Bar-num's show, but the world wide celebrity made them such an elaborate offer that they could hardly refuse. The Ruby” (official yearbook of Ersinus College) photographer happened on the campus at that particular moment, so naturally the editor wanted a last pose of the beloved Ersinus showmen; consequently we are able to present to our readers some very intimate views of the campus curios. At the left we see J. Big Top Chico Frankenstino, the half-elf, half-and-half, in his favorite pose. Mr. Frankenstino is expected to cause a knockout to'say nothing of sensation after sensation under the big top, for he has been the greatest campus showman of them all. 'Tis with sad hearts that we see him depart. Augustus P. Shorty, Frankenstino's trainer and part time wild puppy dog. is intimately viewed in his cave in one of his tamer moments. At the right we see Bumpety the Goon, one of Derr's most beloved horned toads. Goonie gave the photographer a particularly pleasing smile as the birdie snapped, and wiggled his ears in glee when he found out he was to appear in the Ruby.” The Three Dead Goats Emma, Ella, and Leroy are seen in the center, basking in the sunlight down by Bum's Hollow, waiting for the famous Barnum goat car to arrive at the local circus siding. Belov we have Missy Moo, Harvey K. I.esher's pride and joy, who will accompany the curios as chaperone. Missy Moo is quite an old timer at this chaperone stuff and claims she will have her proteges in the pink by the time the first public appearance is scheduled. In the background we see some of the curios' devoted followers at the Collegeville Grand Central Station cheering their heroes on to the greatest heights of success in their new venture. The Ruby” takes great pleasure in wishing them the top also. 183 Intimate Picture of Prof. Harvey E. lecturing on life of Honry VIII in British History Class. SING NOT YE STUDENTS Volumes have been written about the memory span of the elephant. However, our own dear Ursi-nus has in its midst one whose retentive powers are developed to such an outstanding degree that we would unflinchingly place our hard-earned pennies (amassed through many and sundry go-a-little sessions) upon this same person's ability. We sing the praises of one Harvey E. Carter, erstwhile professor of history and master of fluent oratory. Back in the ages when we were but lowly freshies, Lawrence Victor Shear, Austin Cadwalder Hill, and Norman Rodney Roberts, three stooges of the first water, were performing antics of such a nature that they became obnoxious to the same Prof. Carter, and consequently were forced to retire from class with as much dignity as they were able to muster under the circumstances. The result therein was vengeful.

HAIL TO THE TIMBER TOPPER Our bally olde 1935 Ruby (intimate and all that sort of thing) would not be complete unless we paid proper respects to a dear, dear ex-thirty-fiver, one, who up to our senior year, was one of Ursinus' most notable and versatile personages. Difficulties of an unknown nature prevented said Ursinusite from belonging to our fold this year, so it is with a sense of friendly justice, etc., that we bring before the public eye in this volume of the Ruby, our own Reggie Cobb Miller, the People's Choice, the Women's Choice, the Waiter's Choice, the Village Sweetie Pie, and absolutely, positively, the only eleven-event track and field celebrity ever to trod the sod that v as consecrated to old Zacharias Ursinus back in 1859, 'er sompin'. Reggie is now in Jersey raising thoroughbred mosquitoes; but for Ursinus. Cobb's spirit still lives on. His fame as a botanist, his fame as a waiter, his fame as a javelin artist, and finally, his fame as a timber topper will go down in Ursinus history on tablets of petrified platinum and will be wrought in letters of lysalt, so that all future generations may (Continued on Page 187) 185 SING NOT YE STUDENTS (Continued from Page 184) for many a moon thereafter was maliciously shattered by three sinister voices raised inharmoniously in song. Carter's a bard. Carter’s a bard! Down, down, down with Glenwood's bard. The years passed by, as years do, until only one of the three culprits remained at our own dear Ursi-nus. Toward the close of his senior year said culprit turned in the last history term paper of his college career; a paper supposedly written on outside readings. Here's where the elephant's memory plays an important role. Prof. Carter returned said paper to the maurading serenader with a grade which is generally conceded to be not of the highest variety plus several caustic remarks concerning the questionable originality of the paper. He terminated with this bit of striking verse, completing his just debt to the culprit: Remember Sir Victor, Sir Norman And Cadwalder, the Card, Were thrown out of history By Carter, the Bard.

However, it is Cobb's activities as a timber topper that we love to remember him best. Who used to high jump the high hurdles? Why, Cobb! Who used to run around the low hurdles? Why, Cobb! Who went haywire when he beat Slezak, the St. Joe's ace, in the javelin throw? Why, Cobb! And from that time on, Cobb's never been the same. We shudder to think of what might have happened if he had broken the world's record. Our own private artist, Walt Disney Landseer Rossetti, has completed for us another intimate view characteristic of the People's Choice performing in his favorite event. Note the look of grim determination on Cobb's face as he clears the barrier. Note the clenched fists, the muscled thighs, the snort of expectant victory, the 10-inch spikes on the shoes. Note also the fine grade of white pine wood in the hurdle. (No adv.) Yes, folks, this is Cobb, the People's Choice. We missed him this year, but are attempting to atone for his loss by placing in our permanent keepsake ( Ruby to you) this intimate mural tapestry, an expression of the inexpressible, a niche in our slab of memories. We salute thee, O Hilarious Hyena of the High Hurdles and Jabbering Jackal of the Javelin, and dedicate this entire half page of the Ruby all to you. May we see you in the Olympics.

To their enthusiasm and desire to produce something of enduring merit, we contributed our knowledge and broad experience in school book building; the result, a satisfactory production. Today's inspiration to produce quality books extends backward centuries to the days of the old masters. Pride of craftsmanship was the inspiring motive for these imperishable monuments of good book making. Pride of craftsmanship is the impelling motive here too—to make things up to a quality, not down to a price. 147-151 NORTH TENTH STREET . . PHILADELPHIA.

The obstacles encountered in the apparent rosy path of editing an annual are so many, especially in this particular case, that one wonders if the experi ence obtained is worth bucking against the per petual monkey-wrench in the machinery of progress. Yet in producing a publication such as the 1935 Ruby, one must realize that hardly anything worthwhile has been accomplished without lirst going through a definite period of uncertainty and difficulty; thus, keeping this in mind, and hoping tnat this Ruby may be classed a worthwhile publica lion, we are happy to say that at last it is off the press and in the hands of the reader. Financial bothers, staff troubles, and difficulties entailed with the so-called professional helpers in the yearbook field who were working with this volume, all from which the “Ruby” suffered to some extent, are now incidental; the book is complete and credit must go where credit is due to those who helped complete it. The editor, who assumes a major portion of the responsibility in the production of any yearbook, could never really have success without aid of some sort from outside sources. Had the 1935 Ruby” not received such aid, the book could have never been a possibility despite the fact that some of the aid received was decidedly negative, both internally (from the staff) and externally (from professional sources). Further mention of the latter aid is unnecessary. To the following persons and institutions, I wish to express my most earnest appreciation for help in creating and aiding me in the production of the 1935 Ruby : MEMBERS OF THE CLASS OF '35 — who had confidence in electing me editor and who cooperated to varying degrees to certain requests concerning the progress of the Ruby. MEMBERS OF THE RUBY STAFF who helped directly in the various phases of the editorial and business work of the book; and especially to Doi-othy Thomas and John Brown, who helped with clerical and art work, respectively. R. BLAIR HUNTER who, as chairman of the business board, made possible the financial progress of the book and who did mo a great personal service by thus helping after others had failed dismally. THE COLLEGE for cooperation on different matters, especially the Dean s and Registrar s offices, for various aids, chief among which was the use ol the ever-popular paper-cutter. LEONARD H. CADWELL -of the class of '34. whose untiring efforts with his camera are responsible for practically all of the photographs in the athletic sections, to say nothing of other portions of the book. Due to this, the informality of the pictures was able to be carried on in many instances. ORVILLE STAMBAUGH - of the Lyon and Armor Printing Company, whose interest and timely advice was most encouraging; and to his company for the exceptionally line printing work in this volume. MERIN-BALIBAN STUDIO — for portrait and group picture work which has by far surpassed any work ever done by that studio on previous Ursinus year lx oks. JAHN S OLLIER ENGRAVING CO. for engravings that were of much better quality than in former Rubies. MR. EUGENE DURKIN and MR. N. F. RUBIN, of Philadelphia — for aid and helpful advice in the construction of the Ruby. In conclusion, I might add that the 1935 Ruby, l eaten about the waves, so to speak, in its embryo state, is now firmly launched to take its place v ith the rest of the Ursinus Rubies in its attempt to portray typical campus life. May it live up to the expectations held for it by all who awaited its appearance. The experience obtained in editing has been invaluable and never will be forgotten THE EDITOR. 196
