i RUBY F sul do l -U VJ • £) EDITOR ______________ BUSINESS MANAGER RUBY PUBLISHED BY THE SENIOR CLASS AT URSINUS COLLEGE COLLEGEVILLE, PENNA. HONOR In producing this year book, the editors have tried to present a true-to-life picture of Ursinus. It is fortunate that in choosing a dedicatee, the Class of 1938 selected a man who is a true-to-life picture of the best in the Ursinus tradition of men who are friends and guides as well as instructors. No one connected with the College exemplifies these characteristics better than our respected professor and sympathetic friend, Prof. Martin Weaver Witmer. To him this 1938 Ruby is sincerely dedicated. The Year at Through the ages, man has always tried to perform his tasks in such a way that he would stand out from the rest. This, in a sense, is the ideal of every college yearbook editor. He tries his best to put out an annual which is different, in some respect, from all previous editions. However, no matter what is said to the contrary, the world in v hich we live is not one in which all things are possible. No matter what are our ideas or ambitions, v e must be practical and realize that we are limited by the materials which v e have at hand. Thus, only certain individual parts can be changed while the fundamental structure must remain the same. In the publication of the Ruby we have ever been guided by these principles. As a result, this Ruby contains practically the same material as former Ursinus yearbooks, but we have rearranged the contents so as to depict in the best possible way the final year at Ursinus of the Class of '38. We do not expect it to be a history of the past year, but rather that it will present an outline of Ursinus life into which each person can fill those memories v hich he feels to be an intregral part of Ursinus. V e believe that the true spirit of Ursinus cannot be written about; instead, it lives in the memory of every student, alumnus, and friend. This Ursinus is a different place io each one. Each one cherishes certain memories of gracious deeds, sympathetic guidance, unstinting service, good times, and life-long friendships which to him are most typical of the best in the Ursinus tradition. It is our sincere hope that in the years to come this Ruby will bring back to the men and women of Ursinus these memories. Ursinus t.UmiS—ITS BUILDINGS . . . FACULTY . . . AND GRADUATING SENIORS.

SENIOR JUNIOR President Vice-President . Secretary Treasurer J. Justus Bodley n B. Schlaybach Ruth J. Roth Paul S. Craiqie President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer J. Justus Bodley Caroline B. Rhoads Elizabeth M. Ware Paul S. Craigie SOPHOMORE FRESHMAN President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer J. Justus Bodley Muriel E. Brandt Mary B. Bishop Paul S. Craigie President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer . John T. Gorman Elizabeth M. Ware . Bessie B. Collins Vernon D. GroJf LOIS BEULAH ALBERT L. II. Albert — After spending her first three years in the Day Students' hangout on the east side of Bomberger. Lois blossomed out in her senior year by assuming the preceptress-ship of new Sprankle Hall. As if this wasn’t enough, this Pottstown suburbanite indulged in practice teaching French in Collegeville and supporting Curtain Club dramatics. Favorite past-time — singing hymns to Sprankle inmates. II. E. Althousc — A phys-eder with a penchant for wrestling. Herb went to town until he was thrown for a loss by Sibbald and Pettit. However, he came back fighting and eventually triumphed over the terrible Frenchman and tricky chemist. Between matches he recuperated at Brad's and Doc’s and usually topp'd off the training grind with Saturday night sessions at Sunnvbrook in the company of Trainer Van Tries. J. A. Armstrong — A staunch four-year inmate of Curtis Marine Barracks, this business-minded lad studied hard, figured through Prof. Bone’s courses of balance sheets and ledgers on his way to a career in finance. Most week-ends meant home to nearby Chester and next-door-neighbor Jane. Jim learned of the mysteries in co-ed dorms by hauling damsels’ trunks in the truck” but he never divulged the secrets of his discoveries. J. II .Baird — Unpretentious, congenial. Jim walked half a block from his Collegeville residence to Ursinus’ Halls of learning, chiefly in the confines of the Science Building labs” as a Chem-Bi major. Moderation seems to be Jim's supreme virtue. Not a socialite, but exceptionally sociable, doesn't drink or smoke, has few dates, but manages to enjoy life quietly. Will enter M. I. T. to get more book-larnin” next year. ELIZABETH EVENS BALLINGER LEONARD DANIEL BALSIS DOROTHY ELLEN BARRY UTAHNA BASOW E. E. Ballinger — Collingswood. N. J sent Betsy to Ursinus and Shreiner for a four-year career in the History-Social Science department. As an ardent debater and industrious follower of Skippy's Seminar she managed to find time to keep Bill happy and preside over her hall-mates. Sheer geniality with a warm heart will help her greatly in following her profession as a teacher. L. I). Balsis — Avowing relation to Polish aristocracy, young Hequer de St Clair received from awed fellow-Brodbeckians the cognomen “Count Balsis early in his freshman year. Devoting :he royal energies to organizing a co-ed key-banging class in the accounting room, delivering Bulletins, managing .Ting’s affairs, tilled out his career and purse. After a technicality tore him from Mertz. Hecker had dreams of that gal-from-outa-town to sweeten his jovial seclusion in the Dungeon. I). K. Barry — Dot. one of the famous Shreiner trio, is happiest when she goes hunting. Dogs have always been the delight of her life, but there is another delight in Dot’s life that is responsible for the dreamy expression she wears so often. She is fond of music and sports;’ and although the quiet type, she is noted for her exceedingly pleasant disposition and friendly, amiable spirit. U. Basow — Utahna. with the beautiful hands and the interesting name, has lived all four years at Lynncwood. She was a member of English Club, and enjoys reading good books She has a particular weakness for perfumes, new shades of nail polish and new hat styles. She did her practice teaching in Norristown and was very successful. MARGARET LIDA BATDORF JOHN CAVENDER BATES ROBERT SOLOMON BEAR. JR. VIRGINIA CAROLINE BECK M. I.. Butdorf — In Spite of a car that frequently broke down. Margaret managed to commute daily from the vicinity of near-by Pottstown. One of the most mysterious in the class of ‘38. she secluded herself within the cavernous labs of the Science Building chiefly amid smoke fumes from test tubes and Bunsen burners following her favorite avocation, chemistry. Definitely anti-Mauchly’s physics, and would like to teach. J. ’. Bates — A member of the VanTries-Althouse-Bates trio. Jack was a staunch Zeta Chi supporter and an even more rabid Fizzedder. Heading the latter club in his senior year, he liked nothing better than a brisk canter or a cool dip with the other members of this choice group. Took to hanging out at Doc’s den with the Curtis-South crowd. R. S. Bear — Max. “accountant par cxcellance , brought to Ursinus the potentialities of one of America’s business leaders. As “Prof. Bone's chief assistant he guided, in Derr’s Penthouse, many of the business majors through their tough courses. He managed the first undefeated soccer team of Ursinus and as Editor Mertz’s business adviser guided the Grizzly Gridder financially. Max comments favorably on Hamburg. brother Dumas, all economic courses, and his blind date to the Senior Ball. V. C. Beck — Ever-present sweet smile, forever hurrying to some V' meeting she has called, earnest and sincere — that's Ginny. One of the few who has struggled through four years of Latin and can still smile. Nor has her social life been neglected because of her many campus activities. Admirers — too many for comfort sometimes — have been now reduced to one who makes regular Saturday night return trips to campus. 32 ELIZABETH AUDERA BENSCOTER MARY BELLE BILLETT MARY BARBARA BISHOP JOHN JUSTUS BODLEY K. A. Benscotcr — Studying fossils and pyramids in History 1. 2 gave her a start from which she became as conscientious a Hist.-Soc.-Sci. major as could be found. Betty always came through in the tight spots in classes: results. Profs will be sorry to see her leave. I. R. C. was her chief extra-curricular activity, and as culinary aid to Mrs. Price she was indispensable. An enthusiastic hiker. Bets , trecked back and forth to Glemvood all four years. M. B. Billctt — Here is Bill of the ebony hair and pearly smile, as pretty a lass as ever graced a hockey field and what's more captained the feminine stick-wielders. Billet! without Bros , would be a phenomenal separation, and a familiar sight to all was this combination. Teaching young America history and phys.-ed. is her chosen profession and we'd like to be in her classes M. B. Bishop — Hockey, basketball, and tennis absorbed the interest of Bish. Her naivetee has kept Glemvood and her friends wondering what she will do next. A sunny disposition makes her a favorite among her friends. One of the most frequent visitors to Moll sariitorium next to the supply store. Mary was one of the quickest to recuperate from the bumps of phys-ed. life. J. J. Bod ley — One of the last of the second choice frosh class presidents, Jus showed 'em , was re-elected every year. On the way garnered captaincies of basketball and tennis, presidencies of Varsity Club and Beta Sigs plus four years on the gridiron. Jus began as a Phys-Ed major, changed to a pre-law B-listcr. A free man his first and last years. Sally kept an eye on him the other two. 33 HCRBERT WILLIAM BOOTH MILDRED RUTH BOYER MURIEL LLVA BRANDT ELI BROIDY II. W. Ikioih — Hcrby has the distinction of becoming the Class of '33 s latest charter member. Although from Jersey's sandy flatlands the “marines branded him the Curtis Rebel on account of previous southern exposure as a V. M. I. soldier-boy. Amiable and witty, likes to stroll in shirt-sleeves eating ice cream when the rest of us are freezing. This rugged spirit will carry him to an ultimate M. D. via Johns Hopkins. 1. R. Boyer — Five feet of Pep! Vim! Vigor! an infcctuous giggler, and an epitome of friendliness, kindness and generosity. Her Waterloo appears with the first snowfall but she can take it. Mil and Ben are our Class romance, the only lasting Senior combination. Will Brad's or Doc's be the same without her? M. E. Brandt — Muriel is the kind of coed we read about. Sicb | found that out four years ago. Poise and charm are synonomous with her name. From the W S. G. A. to the B list every campus activity has felt her influence. Among the many honors she has deserved and one not the least, is her candidacy for Who's Who — a true indication of the success of her college career. K. Broidy — Eh says his Saturday night Pottstown trysts during one of which he spake into a feminine ear the overwhelming It is so nice , were events of my adolescence . Yet his debonair mien remains. for he manages smooth smiles on any occasion, whether it's eating with gangling freshmen or making sophisticated behind-the-footlights speeches for Reggie. A faithful second-row Barnardian. Eli's other achievements include several helpings of Tower, constant B-list-ing. and heckling Rosalind's Little Null . 34 HELENE MARJORIE BROSZ KENNETH L.AMAR CLOUSE ANNE MARIE COLSHER PAUL SPENCE CRAIG1E II. M. Hrosz — Staunch adherent to the Dean's History from !. 2 to Seminar in U S. Diplomacy. Marj is interested, which makes her interesting. Sincerity, with just the right amount of decorum tempered with warm amiability, characterizes this charming day student who can be seen behind the wheel of her colorful ’•puddle-jumper most anywhere in Collegeville environs. Ardent hockey rooter and Y. W. booster were extra-curricular but vital. K. I.. Clouse — Kenneth small-dip “Mouse Clouse earned his first nickname serving minute portions of frozen dessert during his junior year as supply store improssario and his second cognomen because of Mary's irresistible influence. Budding forth as a true socialite in his senior year, this stalwart Beta Sig pillar earned the respect and sincere friendship of everyone, attributes augmented by his election to the presidency of the campus Y. A. M. Colsher — One of the notorious but lovely Maples babies . Anne liked Romance Languages and just plain romance ultimately with Indiana's son “Sandy . Admirable was her ability to hit “Reggie's grammar courses for A's. and do a nice bit of acting on Ursinus stage, again under “Reggie's tutelage. Some lucky high school will get her as a French teacher and Ursinus will miss her as much as ISriant. I’. S. Cralgie Genial, friendly, witty. Paul became one of the class's leading men-about-campus. Possessed of an irresistible, unforgettable laugh, he soon found his place as Curtain Club head Student Council supporter, and cheer leader deluxe. After his freshman year. Paul gave up social activities on campus in favor of week-ends at homo with Janet. Favorite diversions Porambo and Knoll 35 JOHN WILLIAM DE WIRE, JR. FREDERICK WILLIAM DITZEL EDWARD EMMERS, III. EDWARD LIVINGSTONE FRENCH .1. W. IK Wire — Spelied with an r and not an s . the name begins with Johnny, as his girl Lil hersel! says. Unchallenged king of figures, i.e.. mathematical, he was Mauchly's physics aide-de-camp, also Hashogen's physical aide-de-camp as basketball managah (pronounced managah because John is ;i Baltimo' boy). Is a charter member of The Corporation of DeWire. GrofT. Guest. Hayashi. Irwin, and Russo. I''. W. Ditzel — Here, dear readers, is our Ed., with all sympathy forthcoming. Despite a case of the squirrels he gave us the Ruby of '38. Character and personality tempered with geniality, dry humor, and good sense. Freddy became Marshmellow’s idol, thus ending the long reign of Snooks . As Herbert in Senior Class' Big Hearted Herbert . Fred aisled 'em with a stellar comedy performance. A consistent B-lister he has survived Skip's 1. 2 and subsequent agonies unscathed. E. Emmers — This happy-go-lucky, carefree Royersfordian spent four hectic years in the Day Study, struggling with Yost's German, heckling Kurtz, and in turn being heckled by the other Day Study denizons”. Politically a dyed-in-the-wool conservative, and socially a very well dressed, personable lad. this former Staunton Military Academy youth used his ready wit and sharp sarcasm to rise above the babble of the commuters. E. I.. French — Commuter Ed graced English Group meetings as one of the half-dozen courageous males; but Anglo and other trials only adder! to the need for recreation via those enticing games of chance in the Day Pit. Fictionalizing ability early put Ed on the Lantern stall. His associations there and in Comp.’ 7. C were instrumental in determining that the business of practice teaching should not interfere with the pleasure of week-end trips to Jean's home town. 36 WARREN IRVIN FUERMAN GERTRUDE FRANCES GOLDBERG ROBERT MORRIS GOTTSCHALL ROBERT N. GOTTSHALL V. I. Fuerman — This shining light and illustrious luminary of the Men’s Day Study hails from Pottstown. a suburb of Collcgcvillc. On campus he preoccupied himself with study, an occasional Gertie, and visits to the “Dog House” and Doc's . Little is known of his olT com pus life, but if we may be permitted to judge him by his Ursinus career our conclusion must needs be overwhelmingly favorable. G. F. Gold berg — Although a day student. Gertie’s contagious laughter, her good matured ness, and her delight in a heated argument in which she could talk on and on without interruption have made her a well-known figure on the campus. She's a good student, excelling in History and Social Studies, both an ardent and good debater, a loyal Omega Chi. and an active socialite. R. M. Gottschall — From nearby Norristown came Bob to Curtis. Manning’s math. Zeta Chi. and Tcss clain.ed him the first year but did not prevent his becoming a legislator on M. S. C. His oompahs on the tuba (Civil War Relic) filled a big gap in Ursinus' diminutive Band. Jammin' ” with Reese and Vince on the vones reveal musical talent in this likeable supporter of the marines' intra-mural reputation. R. N. Gottschall — Genial, unassuming, short and stocky. Bob is one of those miracles of the Day denizens. — quiet. Instead of working his way through college, this lad has reversed the proverbial contention and has studied his way through a job as an ultra-auto-peddler for Pottstown Plymouths. Not to be outdone by others, this mustachioed romeo in tweed relaxed from business with Alice. 37 VERNON DE LONG GROFF WILLIAM JONATHAN GROVE PAUL IVINS GUEST CHARLES EUGENE HALM V. I). Groll — Slim” fits him physically. Vernon only phonetically. Started out in Freeland and Stine, also with Ellen, now upholds the scholastic and bachelor end of the Highland Corporation (the latter not from choice at this writing.) No grind, social circles know him for his interpretive tcrpsichorean efforts and his own contagious form of “funning . Difficulty squelcher head of the Weekly, had to conform in his liberal journalistic policies, which malleability in his make-up is sure to aid him in his newshawk career. . .1. Grove — Joining us as a second semester Freshman after a balked attempt in '33. Hill commuted until his Senior year, liked it here and stayed until parsley, potatoes and glop forced him back and forth to Pennsburg for mom’s cookin' . Most amazing is Bill's Chewy which alter four years of Bucknell trips and the like is still perkin'. Unforgettable hot trumpet work with Ursinus’ Harmony Butchers' and Shreiner's Betsy were extra-curricular. I . I. Guest Exponent of Dale Carnegie and promulgator of a ruthless but honest philosophy of “getting ahead . Paul, also “Goldie , goes out of this collegiate world as self-appointed stimulator of The Corporation to the high road of success. Combination of Horatio Alger and Jack Armstrong, also student, soccer captain, and debate president, he will become a lawyer. C. E. Halm — Appropriately be-decked with the nick name “Smiles'', this genial, irrepressible, friendly Yonkerite was prevented from a sparkling athletic career by a series of unfortunate injuries. The Beta Sigs' biggest booster. “Smiles passed up the campus cuties in his senioi year in favor of a sorority girl at Temple. Never could pass Brownie's Human Anatomy. 38 RITA ELLEN HARLEY NANCY LOUISE HARMAN TERU HAYASHI WILLIAM IRWIN K. I'.. Harley — Preceptress of Superhouse Annex. Dr. White's right-hand maiden. Rita said little and worked hard. Another worthy debater she pursued courses under the Willaucr-Barnard-White axis, the result of which will be her entering social-service. Not so busy however that Dan Cupid couldn't work in a dart for the home-town heart throb. N. L. Harman — From a bashful freshman to a well-poised, good-looking Senior. A combination of naivitee and sophistication. Her puns, the jokes she never gets, and even her baby talk describes Uerzy Wergy's Nancy. Top that with brains, initiative, and ambition. She plans to teach three years We wonder??? T. Hayashi — The papers called him the wily Oriental on the mat. and little knew that the name of Tay was the best-known on the campus. Rcc Hall’s most agile. Ruthor's most devoted, and Wine-hell's noblest in that infamous thing. Galf. the name is synonymous with boulevardier and bon vivant . as they say in French. He bears the collective stamp of Atlantic City. The Corporation, and Open Scholarship Brains, with a future in Biology. . Irwin — Tall and dark, self-styled handsome, and coming out of Philadelphia. Bill, alias The Twidge . began the Mystery of College within the protecting arms of Calvert. Davison, and Trumbore. ended as Student Leader (by Weekly permission) under the promotion of The Corporation. Earnest, sincere, his motives are high, and he will make a good teacher, but honest, girls. The Girl at West Chester just had to come first. 39 NORMAN SAMUEL KINDT ESTELLA MAE KLEIN JOHN MICHAEL KNOLL, JR. RUTH ESTELLA KRAMER N. S. Kindt — Although a Day Dungeon denizen Norman also achieves the distinction of being a student of note. He holds the record for the most hours spent in the library, but he occasionally finds time to help his compatriots whoop it up in the Cellar of Bombcrger. For further relaxation, he drives five young ladies to and from school every day — five, mind you. Norman plans to become a fightin parson and to spend his future in an attempt to reform his congregation. F. M. Klein — She may be small but she kept twenty-one girls locked up for one week. You guessed it. The Scarlet Fever Baby!! Although the shortest girl in the class this little one is Sigma Nu's pride and joy. She’s the “Tops . Generous, fun-loving, good dancer, fiery, plus neatness sum up Klinky. As a teacher and a student she is efficient. Remember Aggie” of Junior Play fame? J. M. Knoli — Grappling with heavyweights, passing Reggie’s 3.4. and wooing a pretty nurse kept “Tiny” occupied. His 220 poundage will leave a gap in Stevens’ line and an empty front seat in John’s bus on athletic trips. Dr. Tower's logician. Carter's prize after-dinner speaker, he aided McAvoy’s track team, helped Hairless Harry serve meals on clean (?) plates and was a willing contributor to Curtis bull-sessions. R. F. Kramer — The mosquitos of Jersey drove Ruth to Ursinus. With her curly hair, infcctuous laugh and jollity, she can cheer up the most morose person. Her good-natured fun has made many a practice teaching trip much more pleasant, and to be sure Ruth is often the center of any pranks played in Lynnewood. Her ability as a leader made her president of Tan Sigma Gamma in her senior year. She plans to teach. 10 EARL SHAFFER KRICK HENRY HAROLD KR1GER SAMUEL EDWIN KURTZ KENNETH ELFNER LECRONE E. S. Krlck — Another Chem-Bi pr: -Medico Earl found his interest in “messin around the labs with an eye to the future on Hahnemann. Breezed through math and by sheer effort he pinned” Chem Very little on extra-curricular. Mary Helen managed to lure Earl from test tubes to Doc's for a chummy bit of “cokclails for two” of an afternoon and evening. II. II. Kriger — We present the super shoe salesman from Norristown. and when we say super”, we mean just that. Henry tells with pride of the time when he sola a lady a size 9 when she wanted a size 6. It's easy.” he says. “Just hold it upside down. He is a historian of the Shreincr school and a politician ala Skippy. As a consequence he hopes to instill at least the fundamentals of these studies into the infant minds of high school pupils. S. E. Kurt . — For four years a commuter to and from the hills of Sanatoga. Sam was a constant butt of Day Study practical jokers because of his modesty bordering on shyness, his methodical neatness and his gentlemanly bearing. However his quick wit and those awful puns often turned the tables on his would be annoyers An infrequent visitor on campus at night. Sam spent his days among the test-tubes in the Chem labs. K. E. I.ccrone — Hailing from York and later Brodbeck. K :i is the pride of Jimmy Boswell, and heads the Bus-Ads. Member or alumnus of three sororities and proud of it. One of the Demas few. usually found with Peg , and a member of Doc’s retinue. Known to some as Moo , lie has made himself popular about the campus .n many ways, pi-oven by his presence on the Ball and Prom Committees. 41 ■ I HANNAH ISABELLA LEISSE ALEXANDER LEWIS BENIAMIN HOFFMAN LONGAKER ANNA MAE MARKLEY II. I. LHssp — Industrious, sincere and deserving success as a result of her efforts. Hannah is one of the tops of ye classe of '38. Versatile as a V. V. aide to mixing cokes at Doc's and as chapel organist. She saw Lynnewood, liked it and made it her permanent abode for following a college career packed full of varied interests and honest endeavor. A. lewis — After spending a year in Derr with Toot. A1 returned to Brodbeck. living with Pinky and Jus , and deservedly earning his name of Beetle”. Hails from Danville, and is a member of the Mad Chemists . Proxy and Senior Class of Sigma Rho, outcast from Clamer. and caretaker of the frosh footballers, he may be found usually in the labs. Doc's, or in a crowd of femmes'Bill collector of the Weekly and a member of the Hall Chem.. A1 is pretty much an all around man. B. II. Longaker — One of the original Curtis marines , fun lovin' Ben waded through the Bonc-BoswcU courses, became a staunch '38 socialite. Non-partisan, he patronized Doc's and Brad’s or wherever he could heckle Mllly. Well-dressed, easy-going, and conscientious. Ben added color to the Ursinus Country Club as the class of 38's future well-to-do capitalist. A. M. Mark ley — Only German major in the ranks of 38's language specialists. Anna Mae travelled back and forth from neighboring Pennsburg in search of the Liberal Arts. Yes, that is where her heart interest lies, but only when he isn't swinging in the gym with Anna Mae at Ursinus' dance affairs. Was a great aid in Day girls' basketball activities. •12 ARTHUR FRANCIS MARTIN. JR. RALPH BINGHAM MEISENHELDER, JOSEPH DOUGLAS MERTZ EDNA WOLFGANG MEYERS A. I'. Martin — This lanky West Virginian has the distinction of being the day student living the greatest distance from home. Residing at the Sibbald's emporium of French and Dramatics. Jim spent his college career tooting his clarinet for Philip's bugle corps, managing same, emoting with Reggie's dramatcurs, and collecting A after A without cracking a book. Never appeared at a social function where women were requited. R. 1� . Mcisenlielder — One of Stine's notorious terrorists, this likeable lad from up York way got around plenty despite his refusal of fraternity affiliations. First love, the Weekly, creator of Things and Stuff ' and doggie roasts in Shrciner kitchen. Ralph would rather listen to swing bands, munch at Brad's or discuss subject A. women tone on every campus). Typical journalist, hopes to have his name on bylines and become a columnist. Never missed an Ursinus dance. .1. l . Mertz — Brilliant student under the trials of White -Wiilaucr courses, shrewd business man as proven by the managing of the Grid-dcr (and, we hope, as manager of this Ruby). Doug, a Pre-Law Demas. is as industrious a ’38er as ever entered Eger Gateway. Four years of Rvodbeck. always amiable and headed for the top. Ursinus can chalk Mertz up as an asset to its scholastic reputation E. W. Meyers — Jolly is the word that best describes Edna. As captain of Miss Snell's basketcers she was their mainstay and chief pep-giver this year. One of those commuters who has made her presence on campus felt, she has been a staunch phys-edder. and when you’re hunting for a real friend. Edna is the answer. Thanks. Scnwenksville, for this contribution to Ursinus. 43 MARGARET LOUISE MOSER CHRISTIAN EL WOOD MOSER LEO WILLIAM PADDEN GRACE REBECCA NACHOD M. I.. Moser — Mu;::::e's symi athetic : nd under-danding spirit has made her Maple's bis sister for four years. No matter how busy or tired she may be. she is always ready and willing to let you unburden your heart to her. She is just as indispensable io her sorority. Tau Sigma Gamma, because she’s the kind who is always nearby when you need her — dependable and conscientious. C. K. Mosc: — Chris has a set goal in life which explains natural affinity for conscientious study toward its attainment. Another test-tube juggler, the Science Building has been his haven for the Pro-Med time in his career. With an opinion on every thing. Chris is ready to express it in his own forceful way, tinged with a touch of ironic humor and a wisp of utter sobriety, revealing a practical philosophy of life. L W. I'addcn — A true Valley' lad. Pappy, with his trick knees, has made himself famous on the football field, the track, the stage, or on the dance floor with the Terrible Terry . A charter member of Brodbeck and of Zeta Chi and pride ol the History-Socials, lamed for his ability to play the trumpet, to smell goodies , and to press pants. G. It. Nachod — Click! another picture from our candid camera bug. A true friend, nothing is ever too much bother for Grace of the Recd-Nachod combination. A serious-minded, ambitious, excellent student and a lover of fine music and good books reveals to you Dr. Sturgis' protege for whom we predict a great future in chemistry. JENNIE PALILONIS ALICE LOUISE PLUNKETT AUDREY ANNA POLEY JOHN JOSEPH PORAMBO J. I’alilonis — You rarely hear Jennie talk, but when she does, take notice. With her unassuming and kind nature she has made many friends. During a snow storm her Sophomore year she learned painfully about the art of sledding. In between chemistry labs Jennie has scored many points in class hockey games and for four years has helped to lead Shrciner to victory on the basketball court. A. I.. Plunkett — Isn’t she excellentwas murmured during her nine performances on the Ursinus stage. She’s ihe gal who’s responsible for the varied coiffures in South Hall. A vhacious. happy-go-lucky tripper of the light fantastic is our attractive Plunky. Always in high spirits, a constant giggler, this part partner of ihe team of Klinky and Plunky will make good wherever she goes. A. A. Poley — Driving from Trappc to Collegeville may have been monotonous, but Audrey kept it up all four years just to learn about Muttlet’s poetry and subsequent I.it. courses.

Earning glowing mention as a center on the little All-American, he captained the Ursinus in-and-out footballers to a spirited, if not a lucrative season. A moderate socialite. John became one of the .Math department’s leading disciples. 45 LOLA STUART REED CAROLINE BAILEY RHOADS WILLIAM GERALD RIDGWAY FLORENCE ANNA ROBERTS I.. S. Kecd — Skippy! What? Another mouse? I'll be right up. I)r. Reed of the duck hat fame — long may she prescribe! Brownie's right hand gal. who has spent most of her lime in labs and on the hockey field. We'll guarantee that many of the boys in mod-school will find her as helpful and pleasant a partner as Chris has. If you're sick, look confidently for her shingle. C. It. Rhoads — A serious-minded student who emerges victorious in spite of her own doubts Sigma Mu's sophisticated leader who excels in style and poise — a reliable person who has proved a trustworthy friend to many. Four year inhabitant of the rendezvous with Mil who has been her chief worry. We wonder why she likes the New England states? Fortunate the student who learns about Shakespeare from C. It W. G. Ridgwa.v — Our nomination for the hardest working fellow in the class. Bill could be seen every day working around campus or ordering the waiters around in Price’s eating emporium, striving for a well-deserved education. Lacking the time for social events. Bill spent his time in the biology labs working toward a medical career, when he wasn't N. Y. A.-ing it. F. A. Roberts — Flossy, in her quiet and conservative manner, has added another touch of refinement to Ursinus. She has taken a sincere interest in campus activities and blossomed forth as an actress to take the leads in our Junior and Senior plays. An excellent student, she is certain to be successful in teaching French. Flossy hails from Chester. which also has a special attraction for her. •16 SHIRLEY LOUISE ROBERTS ALBERT CLARENCE ROBINSON ROBERT BLAIR PONAN RUTH IANE ROTH S. I.. Roberts — Neat and methodical is this South Hall miss, who has been a hard worker these four years. Shirley is a staunch Republican and will give any New Dealer a good argument Her distinctive giggle can be heard any time from the portals of South. Having spent many week-ends at Temple leads us to believe that Jimmy is the heart interest and gives us reason to wonder about her future — will she become a teacher, her chosen profession, or?? A. ('. Robinson — Brotherhood of St. Paul and the Y. M. C. A. claims his attention, also an unknown and unseen in the flesh) maiden of Butler. Pa., whose existence is known to cronies only by . picture.

Although he spends a great deal of his time in the Day Study. Blair does not indulge in the bridge they play. K. J. Ruth Ruthie is the tiny member of the original Roth. Boop. Colsher Corporation.

Loveable and fun-loving, she's a friend to all. = 47 RICHARD HOFF ROWLAND JAMES SAMUEL RUSSO ELLEN BEAVER SCHLAYBACH MARJORIE GENEVIEVE SHAFFER IS. II. Rom kind — A worshipper of sweet sw.'ng, Dick was an infrequent socialite on campus, his real heart throb residing at Wellesley. A happy-go-lucky but cflicicnt mathematician he helped the man of the kitchen serve meals with clean silverware and assisted in the Physics labs. Because of his friendly, carefree nature, he was nicknamed by his cronies I don't give a — Rowland. J. S. Russo — He’s essential!: a 1 I natured guy And Esquire on Latins Are Lousy Lovers' is all wet: ask Edna or Claire. Toms River all-state Jersey guard. Jim began with football, ended in Ursinus College Athletic Club, so-called, which is really Highland Hall and the Corj oration. Believer in Boswell and Bone, skeptical of Skippy. he will become a Business Man. accent on all the syllables. E. B. Sclilaybach — Ellen is that charming personality who is always going somewhere, doing something. Between her worries as a basketball widow and as Proxy of Omega Chi. she has found enough lime to be a constant B-lister. Her winning smile, food for any toothpaste ad. and her ever-present friendliness are adequate enough reasons for the lasting popularity that lias been hers. M. G. ShalTor — Hailing from Roaring (?) Springs. Pa., button-nose. delightful and ever-cheerful Marjie took Ursinus with ease. Popular. she received Phi Psi education and support with four years of South Hall, ending in presidency of both. Handled an abundance of dates with diplomacy and good humor but did not let them interfere with English and library work. Carrot-topped Lou won her heart in the end. 48 BENETTA WARREN SNIVELY ETHEL JANET SNYDER ROBERT EXCEL STEWARD BERNICE ELIZABETH STOVER B. v. Snivcly — A loyal Glen wood Itc, who. in her Senior year rose to a capable presidency of her hall, Ben’s college life has been a combination of diets with the ultimate prize if she lost enough a car. Also included were horseback rides, hiking, and studies with special emphasis on the latter. In predicting a successful career for her in Social Service work we are not uneasy as to the outcome. E. 3. Snyder — William and Mary College sent .lanct to us, giggle and all. Rushing hither and yon. she was late to dinner with the rest of South Hall for two years. As a senior she commuted from North Wales, spent a great deal of time as Mauchly’s stooge in Physics lab; result of which Janet makes a fair bid toward developing future Chem-Bi majors amongst the adolescent ranks of high school. K. E. Steward — This Jersey lad is the pride and joy of the pre-Meds. Honorary member of Omega Chi. his name is usually synonom-ous with that of Squeeky”. Answers to Bob. Stew, and ignores Stewsy-Wewsy . A four year member of the Brodbeck gang, prexy of Zeta Chi. usually can be seen about the Science building. Doc’s or Maples. May be found doing Histology drawings any time from midnight to seven in the morn. B. E. Stover — “Toot! Toot! Outside Betty! Bob’s here. And '’SlutT runs. South’s poet laureate has given us many a rhyme we’ll never forget. Her practical joeks and puns keep South and Skip from too much grind. Nevertheless when work is to be done. Betty con do it. A willing partner in bridge, dancing, tennis, her amiability is contagious. 49 JOHN GEORGE TOMLINSON FRANK JOSEPH TORNETTA ANGELO JOSEPH VACCARO THOMAS AIKEN VAN TRIES J. G. Tomlinson — Denizen of Doc’s, resident of Rec hall, and socialite in general and you’ve named “Pinky . Rooming with Beetle” Lewis and Bottle’’ Bodlcy. he was one of a trio of campus big guns. “A gypsy from Germantown Oop! . to quote him. His Forte is popularity; his Achievement, the successful promotion of the Class of '38’s two formal dances: and his Monument, the Presidency of the Men’s Student Council. F. J. Tornctta — The Barber of Seville or the “Wheeze , this four year commuter from Norristown personifies gentlemanliness. Outstanding work in Chem-Bi made him president of Hall Chem and Pre-Med societies. Demas claims him as a son. Quiet, easy-going, popular, his ability to write, shown in Lantern contributions, all will add to his career as a microbe hunter. A. J. Vaccaro — Diminutive but powerful; Angie was the smallest of the live '38 grid men of the local eleven. Started going with Ginny early in his college career and has decided to keep it up after graduation. Getting a start in the international company of Costello and the notorious Greek , this well-dressed Zeta Chi is one of Doc's steadiest customers and one of old Zacharias' leading social habitues. T. A. Van Tries — Besides being the tallest of the '38’s. Tom is noted for his weekly excursions to nearby Sunnybrook. where he trucked with the best of the jitterbugs , as Herb’s trainer, and as a loyal supporter for all four years of the Curtis heck-raisers, (on the Q-T of course). Well-groomed, dark, and handsome. Van likes the gentlemen’s sports, golf and tennis. 50 NICHOLAS ARTHUR WABIN CHARLES C. WALLICK, JR. WARREN WILLIAM WALTERS, JR. ELIZABETH MARIE WARE N. A. Wabin — Unassuming and quiet, with a terse comment dropped here and there about this and that. Nick commuted all four years from neighboring Pottstown in his pursuit of modern languages at Ursinus. Definitely anti-History 1.2. this League of Nations in one disliked taking most courses other than language of which he has accumulated over seventy hours credit. Would like to teach or be an interpreter and we think he's not half bad in either. C. C. Wall irk. Jr. — Undismayed by finding a snowman in his room one night. Charlie stuck it out with the Parsonage devils four years. His galaxy of un-Marlened electric implements made Wally's fourth fioor cubicle the headquarters for community pants pressings, tea warmings and countless midnight bull sessions. Though his chosen profession may have brought on the friendships with two minister’s daughters, there is only the carefree gleam in his eye to explain his brilliant senior-year debut at Clamer. W. W. Walters. Jr. — “Shiftless , the man with the unanimous initials. Officially a commuter from Trappe. he hung his clothes in Stine and Highland three years. No ladies man. yet he exhibits the scintillating ball-rom technique of Sunnybrook at many a local dance. Tried mat game for two years, gave it up in favor of Sturgis and chem labs. E. 1. Ware — A turned-up nose and blond hair and a likeable disposition. Excelling in tennis, hockey, and dramatics. Libbie never forgets her book lamin’. She is always willing as the fourth for bridge and adds sparkle to any group. Despite her green band she easily won Jack's heart and is still in possession of it. As an epilogue we'll wager that they'll live happily ever after. 51 HAROLD STANLEY WEIKEL IEAN PARKER WINGATE JOHN V OZNIAK II. S. Weikel — A charter member of the Stine Hall brain trust for three years. Stan and his infectuous laugh repaired for his last year's sojourn to that outskirt of intellectual civilization known as Highland Hall presumably to study in seclusion, but actually, we believe, to secure a closer contact with the outpost of the girls' day study, whose keeper's acquaintance he had made the previous year. J. I . Wingate — Jean, with Betsy and Dot. roommated for four years, which gives ample proof of her pleasant personality. She has garnered victories for Ursinus through debating and has added to her own laurels in musical and dramatic productions. .Jean has received many an A but her studies rarely interfere with her love of reading She enjoys French in the Scotch way. J. W. Wo niak — Wozzie of the contagious humor and turkey gobbler gait and Norristown cuties, several of whom have graced our dances. A loyal Brodbeckian. also a straight pre-Medico. proud dis-player of perfect papers in Organic exams. Self-confessed table-tennis wizard, challenged Hayashi for three years, finally triumphed, with estimable self-gratification. 52 RICHARD ALLAN YAHRAES HARRY WALTER ZOLL It. A. Yahraes — Charis the divine gift to Ursinus and Kay after passing a three year apprenticeship in Freeland amidst candy bars. Weekly write-ups and what have you. transferred his senior domicile to the deep recesses of Brodbeck dungeon. Dick’s week-days were spent chiding “Bumlinson'. Godley and Pewis . philosophizing with Broidy. marking Witmer's papers, securing ad copy for the Weekly and attending an occasional class; while week-ends were confined almost solely to Kay. U. W. oil — The most changed man in the class. Whereas the aforementioned in his first three years was a notorious heck-raiser and irrepressible socialite. Harry, in his last year about-faced and became a week-end commuting A-student and practice teacher. The reason—a girl back home in Jersey’s fashionable Riverside. Earned the nickname of Diz pitching for and captaining the local sluggers. Former Members of the Class of 1938 Baker, Vincent E. Bateman, Carolyn R. Bean, Winfred H. Beddow, Walter F., Jr. Benner.

Crisp weather, coloring leaves, and football season captained by center Hop Porambo, give us a thrill or two with an exciting scoreless tie against Albright, a decisive victory at Gettysburg and many close skirmishes on Patterson Field. Captain Guest reverses last year's soccer record with an undefeated team while Mary Billett leads the hockey girls to a very successful season. The greenswarded campus takes on a new appearance under expert landscaping and tree-planting. Col-sher, Brandt. Reed, Bodley, Gott-schall, Craigie, Porambo, and Tomlinson covet collegiate Who's Who honors. Ho-hum week-ends are scarce. Hallowe'en and Thanksgiving are festive and plans are laid for our Senior Week-End. Still can not realize that we are on our last lap. 59 Left to Right: •Snyder. Ehret. Glatfelter. Craigie.

Barnard Cooperating jointly with the Women's Student Government Association and the Y.M.-Y.W.C.A., the Men's Student Council sponsored the annual reception for the Freshman Class in September, and, together with the former organization, also held the Old Timer's Dance after the F. and M. game, the Lorelie Dance in February, and the annual Christmas party held in the gymnasium. On the Saturday of the football game with Drexel. three members of the Council were entertained by the Drexel Student Councils at luncheon in Philadelphia. Attempting to improve the general condition of the campus, the Council ruled that car parking be prohibited in back of the dormitories, and recommended to the administration the advisability of constructing several footpaths over certain areas. To improve the dormitory conditions, the Council placed fines and demerits upon a number of offenders. In order to bring the Council and its work closer to the work and guidance of the administration, a series of informal dinners with Dr. Norman E. McClure and Mr. Donald L. Helfferich were held at intervals throughout the year in the president's dining room in Freeland Hall. 60 Women’s Student Council The W. S. G. A. is composed of all the women students in the college. Its officers and representatives are elected every spring by the members, and this group is regarded as a representative body of the Ursinus women students. It aspires to direct and better the campus life of both residential and day students. In every organization rules are necessary to assure a harmonious group, and therefore the Council publishes and enforces a revised set of rules each year. The W. S. G. A. likewise sponsors the appointment of committees, such as the Women's Dorm Committee, which raises money for improving the dormitories; the Advisory Committee, which helps in the orientation of freshman girls; the Sophomore Rules Committee, which introduces and enforces freshman rules; the Central Nomination Committee, which supervises all major elections; and the Booster Committee, whose name speaks for itself. In cooperation with the Men's Student Council, the W. S. G. A. sponsors occasional activities, including the Old Timer's Day Dance, the Lorelei, and the Freshman Reception.

Weekly vesper services were held under their joint auspices, likewise many student-faculty teas, student parties, campus movies, musical programs, doggie roasts, educational trips, and the like. In addition, the Y organizations brought many prominent Christian speakers to the Ursinus campus, assigned Big Sisters and Big Brothers from the upper-classes to the freshman for the purpose of helping the new students adjust themselves to college life, and sponsored the publication of the Freshman Handbook.

Mcisenhelder. The 1938 As has been the case in former years, the editor and business manager of the Ruby have been faced with the prospect of putting out a publication which is beset with difficulties: the income is uncertain, there is a lack of a definitely organized staff, and there is a lack of experience in the work that must be done. Facing these difficulties and after seeing the success of the 1937 Ruby, we of the 1938 staff decided that we must follow in their footsteps to a large degree. Therefore, we did not return to the large size Ruby, but rather upon the authorization of the class decided to publish a book with a page size of eight and one-half by eleven inches. The class also guaranteed that a fair amount of the class dues would be paid by December, 1937 and that it would cooperate with both the editorial and business work. The price of the book was continued at $3.50, if paid before February 1, 1938, or $4.00 thereafter. Great care was also taken in contracting photography, engraving, and printing so as to keep the cost dov n as low as possible and still get the best results. As to the organization of the contents of the book there has been a complete revision. We have done this in order to combine formality and intimacy so as to get the best and most appropriate parts of both. Formality is found in the opening section, while the remainder of the book is built upon an intimate picture of the last year at Ursinus of the Class of '38.

Although serving a student body of less than six hundred persons, being limited in its printing facilities, and being supported solely by advertising, Administration subsidation, and alumni subscriptions, it has through the year progressively improved its status among the newspapers of the smaller colleges. The most important of the changes during the year was a reorganization of the staff, primarily in the Board of Editors. From the five associate editors were chosen a managing editor, a feature editor, and three news editors, these last performing the former work of the associate editors while the former two assumed new duties, as their titles imply. The three issue assistants were renamed assistant editors and became part of the news staff. The editorial policy which v as instituted four years ago and by which the opinions expressed in the editorial column are not these of the editor alone, but of the editor and his board, was continued. A definite improvement was made in the editorial column by including subjects of current national interest, along with the editor's attempt to improve campus conditions by pointing out the bad and commending the good. Once each week the editorial board met to discuss editorial topics and plan the next issue. Also once each v eek the entire staff met to receive news assignments and to hear short talks by the editor on style and news writing. Beginning in February, Dr. Calvin D. Yost, Jr., of the Board of Managers, addressed the staff at these weekly meetings. Among the year's changes in the make-up of the Weekly were the extension of the front-page left column to the top of the page, and the institution of the Collegiate Cross-Section, both changes improving the news value of the publication. The extended column made it possible to give prominence to a greater number of articles while the cross-section allowed a grouping of the organization and other small news items. 66 Business Manager Yahreas types out Back row: Wimcr.

Yost, Jr. In the sixth year of publication. The Lantern reached out to interest new readers and to enlist new writers. Because more student manuscripts were submitted in the past year than before, the staff was able to select with the end of balance issues in mind; and in several cases manuscripts were withheld from one publication to another, so as to combine in each issue humor for one's lighter moments, and thought-producing articles for serious moods. A circular issue, posters on the campus, and a prize contest were some of the means used to remind undergraduate writers that You can help make The Lantern live. It was this living quality in literature that the Council consisting of six: student members and three faculty advisers, tried especially to encourage. Searching articles on politics, world affairs, and science; fiction which in some cases had almost professional verve; and poetry expressing a wide range of tones helped to provide issues that were readable as well as literary . The Lantern, not inherently a magazine of the light type, can never aim at universal appeal; but innovations such as Among Our Contributors , the use of interest—catching captions above articles, and certain typographical variations may be counted among the past year's contributions to maintenance of The Lantern as a live and growing literary magazine. 6b Irwin, Halm, Russo, and Baird Haas.

Sponsored by the Y organizations, the book maintained the traditional form and make-up of other years. Greetings from the President, the Deans, and prominent campus personalities, as well as pictures and descriptions of Ursinus activities and other information of value to the new students were included. THE GRIZZLY GRIDDER The official football program, appeared four times during the season when we played Delaware, Albright, Muhlenberg, and Franklin and Marshall on Patterson Field. The Gridder, published by the Varsity Club, was edited by J. Douglas Mertz ’38, assisted by Paul P. Haas '39. R. Solomon Bear '38 was the business manager with Robert E. Gross '39. as his assistant. A four-color cover design, football cartoons, and unusual pictorial arrangements were featured.

Organized in 1931, the Varsity Club has yearly grown in strength until now it is one of the most important organizations on the Ursinus campus. All athletes who have won a varsity letter in any sport, either major or minor, automatically become members of the Club. The Grizzly Gridder . the football program sponsored by the Varsity Club, and the Varsity Club dance held in the fall, were both huge successes. With the funds derived from these sources, the club will hold its annual banquet sometime after Easter. This year the Club has taken upon itself yet another function -that of giving financial aid to deserving athletes. The articles for the Varsity Club Loan Fund were drawn up and approved by the members of the Club in April oi this year. The fund will be put into operation beginning February, 1939, and will be available for senior athletes in their last semester of school. Board of Control: Hayashi. Guest, Zoll. Padden.

On the Football Head Coach McAvoy and Line Coach Stephens Faring rather badly after a brilliant showing at the opening of the season, the 1937 Ursinus football machine placed last in the final standing of the Eastern Pennsylvania Collegiate Conference. From a total of nine games, the Grizzlies won three, tied one. and lost five. The first game with Bucknell proved disastrous, but the Grizzlies came back the following week to win over Delaware. After losing to Dickinson, the Bears upset football dope by holding the powerful Albright Lions to a scoreless tie. The Grizzlies then went down before Muhlenberg, Drexel, and F. S M. respectively, and followed these by crushing Gettysburg and nosing out P. M. C. The coaching staff for this season saw no change. Jack McAvoy remained in his position of Head Coach with Pete Stevens, former Temple star as Assistant Coach, while Don Kellett, ex-Penn man, led the Freshmen on the gridiron. However, at the end of the season Kellett, with three years of successful coaching to his credit, was elected to fill the post of Head Coach, vacated by McAvoy. Stevens will continue with his duties, while G. Sieber Pancoast, former Ursinus star, was chosen to assist with the newly-formed Junior Varsity team, which will replace the Freshman team in the future. Fred Todt, stellar tackle of the 1937 eleven, was chosen by the lettermen to captain the 1938 team. 76 Varsity Manager Mertz and Freshman Manager Lewis. URS1NUS 0 BUCKNELL 21 Opening the season with the powerful Bucknell eleven, the Bears fell in defeat, 21-0. The Bisons scored early in the first period, after recovering a fumble deep in Ursinus territory. Tomasetti, Bucknell's star halfback, carried the ball over after a short pass had gained a few yards. During the second and third quarters, the Bears did most of the offensive work. Although the ball was on the Bucknell 15 yard line three times, the Bears were unable to score. In the second period Smith gained 40 yards for Ursinus in three straight runs, but the Ursinus advance was halted on the 5 yard line. Again in the third quarter, featuring Smith and Power in short runs, the Bears marched deep into the Bison's territory. The Bears were again stopped, however, when a pass into the end zone from Power to Padden, appearing to be good, was ruled out of bounds. In the fourth quarter, after being held to a single tally for most of the battle, the Bisons, coupling power with good fortune rolled up two more scores, bringing their total to 21.

Led by Toy Dawson, sophomore back, the Grizzly eleven came out of its hibernation in the last quarter to send the Delaware Blue Hens down in defeat, 11-6, on Patterson field. In the first period Porambo blocked a kick and recovered on the Delaware 48 yard line. In several plays the ball was taken to the 18. Dawson then, dropped back to the 28 and tallied three points with a drop-kick. In the second quarter Delaware scored its lone tally when Ware blocked Clark's kick and recovered on the Ursinus' line. Putting the ball on the one yard line in two plays. Captain Roberts, spearhead of the Delaware offensive, raced around right end for the score. Following the kick-off. Power intercepted a Delaware pass, and punted out of bounds on the Delaware three-yard line. In the next play Captain Porambo and Astheirner nailed George, of Delaware, attempting a run-back, behind the goal-line for a safety, giving the Grizzlies two points. Entering the final quarter on the small end of a 6-5 score, the fighting Bears came to life, blocked a Delaware punt, and recovered on the 18 yard line.i Carrying the ball in five of six plays. Dawson smashed his v ay through the Mud-Hens to the one-yard line. From that point of vantage Johnny Taxis, another sophomore, crashed through for the score.

Ursinus was unable to stop the powerful running attack of the Red Devils, enjoying their most successful season in recent years. Sammy Padjen, tiny junior wingback, v as the spearhead of the Dickinson attack. Before being removed in the third quarter because of injuries, Padgen scored the first Dickinson touchdown in the second period on a 46 yard run off-tackle. Earlier in the quarter, a dropped ball by Bill Power behind the goal line had given the hosts two points. Padjen. continued his devastating work in the third quarter by placing the ball in scoring position with a 40 yard run. A pass on the next play scored the final touchdown.

Looking like a real fighting eleven, the never-say-die” Ursinus Grizzly held the powerful and highly touted Albright football machine to a 0-0 stalemate on Patterson field before one of the largest crowds of the season. Entering the game as a very lowly under-dog, the Bears became fighting terrors, playing most of the game between the thirty yard lines, and showing the most fight when the Lions attempted to get beyond the 20 yard stripe. Although the Lions had eleven downs, they penetrated no farther than the Ursinus 23 yard line. In the second quarter Cammorata recovered an Ursinus fumble on the 23 yard line. The next play threw a scare into the Ursinus camp, when Riffle threw a perfect pass to Mueller, who was standing iii the end zone. The ball slipped through his fingers, however, as the whistle blew, ending the half. The new five-man line of the Bears stopped the fast-stepping Riffle, star of the Lions, with Clark and Heary in feature roles. Eddie Kurek, hard-hitting back, looked exceptionally good, and his driving tackles broke up the Albright plays time after time. URSINUS 0—MUHLENBERG 6.

In a cold and wet game, which looked rather lifeless to Ursinus rooters, the Bears offered only two real scoring threats, the first a march by Smith and Kurek, and the second an incomplete pass over the goal. The visitors scored the winning tally in the second cnukker, after a 22 yard pass from Stamus to Gutekunst, and a 20 yard run put the ball on the Bears' 15 yard line. In the third quarter the Mules advanced to the 16 yard line and in the closing minutes the Bears threatened when Clark recovered a fumble, but were set back immediately when Gutekunst ran 55 yards after intercepting an Ursinus pass on his own 20. Although leading in first downs 4-1. at the end of the first period, the Grizzlies slowed up during the remainder of the game, and showed especially poor blocking. URSINUS 0—DREXEL 6. In the second Conference game of the season, Ursinus once again v ent down to defeat at the hands of Drexel, by the some score of 6-0. Although the Bears came v ithin one yard of tying the score, a costly fumble lost the game and put them in last place in the Conference standing. In the closing minutes of the first quarter, Ehmlings intercepted an Ursinus pass on his own 25 yard line and returned the same to the Ursinus 33. Passing the ball to the 4 yard line. Williams, huge fullback, put the ball across for the lone tally of the game. Ursinus recovered a fumble as the half ended. After the rest period, Vacarro fumbled the kick-off on his own goal line, but raced fifty yards before being brought down. Following an exchange of punts, Ray 80 Gurzynski, junior backfield man, raced sixty yards with an intercepted ball, to the Drexel five yard line. Smith now made two yards to the 3 yard line, and Vacarro followed with two more. On the fourth down. Taxis fumbled as he attempted to hit the line, and the Bears lost their one scoring chance. In the fourth quarter, runs by Smith and passes by Gurzynski to Padden brought the ball to the Drexel 20 yard line, but the Dragons intercepted a pass on their own 2 yard line to avert an Ursinus score and the game ended. URS1NUS 0—F. 6. M. 7. Ursinus lost its third Conference battle to its old-timd rival, F. M.. by one touchdown. A feature of Old Timers' Day, the game was played in a high and biting wind, which kept the attendance down below expectations. Ably aided by Flowers and Asplin, Captain Roeder proved to be the spearhead of the Diplomats' attack. After staving off several rushes during the first half and another in the third quarter, the Grizzlies went down before a 47 yard advance. 17 of which were made by Flower. Captain Roeder crashed through for six and the touchdown. The Diplomats continued to threaten during the last quarter. The Bears threatened twice, with Smith in the starring role, ably aided by . Eddie Kurek. At the end of the first quarter a drive of 55 yards put the ball on the F. $ M. 22 yard line, and in the final period, two first downs advanced the pigskin to the visitors' 9 yard marker. In first downs, the visitors came out on the heavy end, 6-14. Much of the Diplomats’ gaining was due to short passes, at which they were superb. This loss brings the series with these ancient rivals to the score of 15 wins for Ursinus, 13 for F. 6 M., and three ties in 31 meetings. URSINUS 15—GETTYSBURG 6. Showing more power and deception then on any previous occasion, the Ursinus Grizzlies defeated the Gettysburg Bullets on the rain-soaked Memorial Field before a crowd of Gettysburg Fathers, 15-6. This was the Bears first Conference victory. On the fourth play of the game, the Bullets threw a scare into the Grizzlies, when Hamilton, intercepting a pass, gained possession of the ball for Gettysburg.

The extra point was converted by Dawson. The second peiiod saw a kicking battle, with Bill Power holding the edge, because of his uncanny ability to drop them into the coffin corner. On a quick kick. Power booted one out on the one yard line. Hamilton, attempting to kick out of danger, fumbled the ball and the Bears added a safety to their score, making it 9-6. In the fourth quarter, Hamilton downed a bad pass on his own 18 yard stripe, but a penalty for holding brought the ball back to the G-burg 33. Shortly afterwards, Smith made the Bears' final touchdown on a 35 yard gallop. In the last minutes of play, after an attempted pass was grounded, Dawson attempted a field goal, but the slippery ball went wide of the posts. URSINUS 6—P. M. C. 0. In the final game of the season, the Ursinus Bears defeated the P. M. C. Cadets 6-0, with Ray Gurzy.nski making the only score of the day. Gurzynski of Ursinus and Piff of the Cadets took the honors of the fray. Meklos, Bear guard, and freshly released from the injured list, paved the v ay for the scoring by intercepting a pass on the Cadets' 44 yard line. On the next play Gurzynski again took the ball and crossed the soldiers boys' goal line standing up. In the second quarter the Bears again threatened when a punt was received on the P. M. C. 22 yard line and advanced to the 5 before the ball was lost on downs. In the final period, Piff picked up 19 yards for the Cadets. The fleet halfback crossed the goal line three plays later, but the score was recalled because of a penalty. Left: Todt (33) brings down one of the Lions while Vac-caro backs him up.

Forced to cancel three games of the regular schedule because their small squad was riddled by injuries, the Frosh pigskinners took part in only two games. One resulted in a scoreless tie with National Farm School; and the other, a post season affair, saw the Cubs drop a 6-0 fray to the Sophs. The season did little more than push forward a few good prospects for next year's varsity. Outstanding Cubs were Jim Armstrong, at center, and Matt Zeski and Francis Roncace in the backfield. Other members of the squad were ends, Dave Jacobs, Rip McConnell, Nat Toulon, and Charley Bowen; tackles. Jean Ehlers and Dave Eavenson; guards, Ed Benjamin and Vic Troxel; and backs George Biery, Don Fetterman, Ed Knettler, Joe Lobby. and Frank Lippi. FROSH 0—NATIONAL FARM SCHOOL O: Showing the typical fighting spirit of a Kellett-coached club, the Frosh shoved the highly favored Farm Schoolers all over the lot, but couldn't push the ball over the last white stripe. Twice the Cubs threatened to score while running up a total of 6 first downs to Farm School's 3. In the first quarter they pushed down to the 10 yard line only to lose the ball on downs. And as the final whistle blew the Frosh were clawing their way goalward once more. FROSH 0 -SOPHOMORES 6: In their final game the Cubs again played heads-up ball paced by the beautiful running of Roncace and the crashing defensive work of Armstrong. However. Lady Luck failed to smile on the yearlings, and after fast football during which neither team could score, the Sophs cashed in on the only touchdown of the day on a long forward pass. With three minutes of the game remaining. Toy Dawson and Bri Sando teamed up on a 40 yard pass play to send across the six-pointer which spelled the Cubs' defeat. at 'With the Soccer Team Th© soccer team enjoyed its best season in years last fall, winning four games, tying three, and losing only to Haverford in a non-Conference contest. Baker's booters and Delaware were both undefeated in Conference competition, but the Blue Hens tied only one game, v hereas Ursinus was stalemated twice, thereby giving Delaware a technical claim to the title. The team was aided greatly by sophomore talent: Walt Chalk, Dave Hartman, Charley Barnes, Lee Lurty, Ken Snyder, Fred Sv ift, Lefty Whitman. Hugh McLaughlin, and Bob Keehn all played important parts in the success of the booters. Only Captain Paul Guest, stellar backfield man, will be lost through graduation. URSINUS 1 -GIRARD P. G. 0: Rube Ehret. on a pass from Lefty Whitman, planted the ball between the uprights in the waning minutes of the game to give the Bear booters victory in the season's opener on the home field. Girard threatened constantly and even scored once, only to have the tally annulled because of an offside penalty. Captain Guest, Keehn, Edwards, and Gemmell all did yeoman work on the defense for Ursinus, while Walt Chalk and Dave Hartman gave the Girard backs a busy afternoon. URSINUS 4 -DICKINSON 3: Displaying an improved attack to augment the fine defense exhibited against Girard, the Ursinus soccermen continued their winning ways at the expense of Dickinson at Carlisle. Lefty Whitman, Rube Ehret. and Dave Hartman scored goals for the Bears before the Ded Devils could break through, giving the Bakermen a 3-0 lead going into the third quarter; but Dickinson came to life and scored three times in the last half to push the victors. Walt Chalk's tally in the last quarter meant victory for Ursinus. URSINUS 0 -HAVERFORD 6: A vastly superior Haverford team outplayed the Bears to hand Ursinus its first setback of the season on the Main Line field.

URSINUS 5-OLD TIMERS 4: The Bears turned in their third victory of the season over a heterogeneous combination of alumni, faculty members, and students. Davis scored thrice for the Varsity, and Hartman and LeCron once each. Russ Fisher led the Alumni - Student - Faculty team with three goals, and Harrison contributed a fourth. Doc Baker and his cohorts proved that they could still play soccer, but the team work of the Varsity booters was too much for them. URSINUS 1—TEMPLE 1: Handicapped during the whole game by a strong wind and a glaring sun, Ursinus and Temple fought to a 1-1 stalemate on the home field. Dave Hartman, on a set-up by Bill Shuster, scored the only goal for Ursinus in the second quarter, but George Nemchik, Owl inside left and member of the German-American Olympic team, tied it up in the third frame on a difficult shot past Keehn. URSINUS 2—F. AND M. 1: Old Timers' Day saw the return of the Bear booters to the victory column when they downed F. and M. on the home field. The Diplomats went into a short-lived 1-0 lead, but Chalk soon tied the score, and LeCron added the winning tally single-handed late in the final period. The work of the goalies was outstanding, with Keehn, of Ursinus. and Snodgrass, of F. and M.. both having several excellent saves during the game. URSINUS 2 -GETTYSBURG 2: Playing on a mud-covered field, the Bears kept their Conference record intact although held to a tie by the Bullets at Gettysburg. The Crange and Blue hopped into the lead in the first quarter on a goal by Mizell, but Barnes and Davis retaliated for Ursinus to give the Bears a 2-: margin at the half. Mizell, however, tied the score with another goal in the third period. URSINUS 3—DELAWARE 3: The Baker booters closed the season by deadlocking Delaware's Blue Hens on the home field. The game was played on an exceptionally sloppy turf, and was characterized by continual fouling. Chalk's goal gave Ursinus a temporary lead, but Delaware came back to forge into the front, 2-1, in the second frame, after which Chalk scored again for the Grizzlies. LeCron sent Ursinus into the lead when he converted a free kick in the fourth quarter, but Delaware tied the score on a penalty kick in the last few minutes of play. 85 ' Woman’s Hockey in Action Another successful season was completed by the Ursinus hockeyites with a record of six wins in eight games and a total of 26 points to their opponents' 7. The entire season was marked by fine playing. VonKleeck. Ware, Meyers, and Robinson v ere the big guns of the offense and Captain Mary Billett and Bunny Harshaw v ere stalwarts in the Bear defense. Credit, however, goes to the whole team, not merely to a few stellar players, and to Miss Eleanor Snell and Miss Sara Mary Ouderkirk, coaches of the team. URSINUS 0—SWARTHMORE 3: In the opening game the co-ed hockeyites bowed before a superior Swarth-more team, 3-0. The Bear defense stood up remarkably well, turning back the Swarthmore forwards time after time, but the forward line could not push across a score. URSINUS 5—MORAVIAN 0: Things took a turn for the better in this game, in v hich Captain Mary Billett's alert defensive v ork prevented Moravian from scoring as VonKleeck batted three counters into the nets and Libby V are added two more. URSINUS 6 ROSEMONT 0: Continuing in their winning ways, the hockeyites made a fine showing against Rosemont. Squeeky VonKleeck and Libby Ware led the offense in the first half, tallying three and two goals, respectively. The second half lacked the teamwork and snap of the first half, with VonKleeck adding one other goal. Center (Top Left): Meyers ready to drive. (Bottom Left): Squeeky scores again. (Top Right): Huber goes after the bait. 'Bottom Right): Grade adds another Captain Mary Billett tally. 'Extreme Right): Mutt stands ready on the defense. t G Back Row: Meyers. Harshaw. Ware. Shoe-maker. Hutt. Claflin, Robinson, Svit. and Bishop. Front Row: Roberts. Lees. Billet. Reed, and VonKleeck. URSINUS 4—PENN 0: The first half of this game seemed to lack vim and pep, but after the rest period the old Ursinus spirit came out with a bang as VonKleeck and Ware each banged two goals into the nets in the first four minutes of play. Captain Mary Billett led her mates in an iron-clad defense of the Ursinus goal. URSINUS 3--MOUNT ST. JOSEPH 0: The hockeyites prolonged their winning streak to four games as VonKleeck, Lees, and Robinson registered scores in a rather listless game. The ball was seldom past our 55 yard line, however, and because of fine defensive work it was never in the striking circle. URSINUS 7—DREXEL 2: With a revamped line-up, the Ursinus team started off with a rush as Meyers, VonKleeck, and Robinson scored during the first few minutes of play. Drexel rallied to score two points as the second half opened, but the Ursinus line put the game on ice when VonKleeck sank two more counters and Meyers and Robinson came through with one each. URSINUS 1—ALUMNAE 0: Playing against a team composed of the cream of the old timers, the varsity was held to 0-0 in the first half. Substitute Svit broke the deadlock and assured victory by a well-placed goal in the second half. URSINUS 0-BEAVER 2: Although they put up a hard fight, the Ursinus lassies bowed to a superior Beaver team for their second loss of the season. Mary Billett, captain, was again outstanding on the defense. 1 87 Class of 1941 Adams. Dorothy B. Adams. Helen B. Armstrong. James P. Atkinson. Kathryn Mary Bachman. Louise M. Baldwin. Emily E.

Itol.rt Pel On October 12 and 13. 1937, the Curtain Club presented Maxwell Anderson’s “Night Over Taos. A drama of the old West, this play proved to be one of the Club's most ambitious productions in recent years. The plot centers about Pablo Montoya, as a representative of the old Mexican regime, and his futile struggle against the new order which v as threatening his rule. With the treachery about him, Pablo is able to cope, being ruthless even to the extent of killing his elder son because of the latter's deceit. But when Pablo discovers that his future wife is in love with his younger son, he feels the wall of the old Mexican dynasty crumbling about him and succumbs to the inevitable—death by the drinking of poison. The role of Pablo was ably portrayed by Kenneth Seagrave, a newcomer to the Ursinus stage, and he was aided by a large, smoothly-functionally supporting cast. Veri (Grauert): No. truly? I was once in a position to repel insults myself, dear lady. I was his first love . . . you are Montoya «Seagrave): My laws for me! 1 take the woman I his third . . . . ” choose, and God can’t help him who gets in my way. 94 Alpha Psi Omega President Craigie discusses the new entrance requirements before the fraternity.

The DELTA TAU Chapter of Alpha Psi Omega, the national honorary dramatic fraterniey, was organized on the Ursinus campus in 1934. The standards for membership were raised during the past year to participation in three plays or service on four committees because the increased number of presentations made it possible for too large a group to become eligible under previous requirements. Besides being a means of giving recognition for excellence in the dramatic art, Alpha Psi Omega membership enables the chapters to obtain such privileges as getting reduced royalties from the most prominent publishers. Curtain Club officers serve also as officers of the fraternity, and the coaches. Dr. and Mrs. Sibbald serve as sponsors. : 95 ! Senior Ball rhe Ball chaperons: Standing: Dr. Mauchly.

The Senior Ball of the class of 1938 continued the success of the Junior Prom in that it also made a hit in a social and financial way. The attendance at the Ball set a new record for this college event with 117 couples attending. Howard Gale and his orchestra, from Harrisburg, Pa., lived up to the pre-dance advertising by combining the swing and sway of Sammy Kaye and the sweetest music this side of heaven of Guy Lombardo and was received very favorably by the large crowd of dancing couples. The color scheme was of a more sophisticated motif of white and black, contrasting v ith the bright colors of the Junior Prom of the year before. The false ceiling was again used to good advantage.

Big-Hearted Herbert”, a hilarious comedy by Sophie Kerr and Anna Richardson, was offered on December 4, 1937, as the Senior Class play. THE CAST The following excerpts from a review in the Ursinus Weekly clearly depict the story and the favorable reception tendered the production of this farce: Big-Hearted Herbert deals with the humorous and eccentricities of a self-made business man who seems to be unable to adjust his viewpoint toward the rising generation and insists his family must be brought up in the plain traditions.” To Fred Ditzel and Florence Roberts in the lead roles of Herbert and Elizabeth Kalness must go the greatest praise for their skillful portrayals of the storming, fuming household tyrant, and his loving and long-suffering wife.” In the supporting cast, the love interest was taken care of by Elizabeth Ware and Eli Broidy, and the humor of the evening was augmented by Teru Hayashi, Kenneth Clouse, and the other members of the cast.” Herbert Kalness Fred Ditzel Robert Kalness Teru Hayashi Elizabeth Kalness Florence Roberts Martha, servant Elizabeth Bcnscoter Herbert Kalness.

The Webster Forensic Society adopted the topic proposed by the Debating Association of Pennsylvania Colleges, Resolved, That the National Labor Relations Board should be empowered to compel arbitration of all disputes. A consolidated bibliography was compiled and kept in the library for the use of the members. Briefs were drawn up for each side during the meetings of the Club from which the members developed their individual speeches. These speeches were then given before the Club for criticism. Post-mortems were often held following the debates with the objective of improving the arguments advanced. The Club engaged in two radio debates, one with the University of Pennsylvania with J. Douglas Mertz and Paul Haas defending the subject. Resolved, That the United States should abandon its neutrality policy, the other against Elizabethtown with William Grove and J. Douglas Mertz upholding the Labor question. 98 Womens Debating Club The Women's Debating Club successfully completed its fourteenth year on the Ursinus campus. The Varsity question, Resolved: That the National Labor Relation Board be empowered to enforce arbitration of all industrial disputes , was debated with Drexel, Penn State, Lebanon Valley, Gettysburg, Cedar Crest, Western Maryland, and Immaculata. The Club has cooperated with the Varsity team in the preparation of their debates and has also conducted group discussions on topics of timely interest at its regular meetings.

Bottom: Power. Chern. In Action A sophomore studded basketball squad racked up six victories against eight defeats as the record of the 1938 season at Ursinus. It was an in-and-out season for the charges of Coach Kenneth Hashagen who showed promise of giving the school a real basketball team in the coming seasons. The Bears finished fifth in the Conference standings. Led by Captain Justus Bodley the courtmen shot off to an auspicious start but bogged down at the turn only to blaze through the finish to hang up the best record in Hashagen's three year tenure here. A disastrous four game losing streak early in February shattered the confidence of the inexperienced courtmen of whom much v as expected by overzealous Bear fans. Seven of the squad of nine were first year men up from Don Kellett's freshmen five of 1937. Bill Power, Junior, v as the only upperclassman other than Bodley on the active squad. Cne of the best week-end trips in the Grizzly annals was the ray of sunshine which broke through an otherwise cloudy season to put a silver lining on the record. Splitting the games with F. and M. and Gettysburg and blazing through the Drexel curtain dropper, Hashagen's team brushed the record across the successful line. The revised playing rules, eliminating the center tap and thus speeding up the game to a wh rlwind of action, required a very active playing squad in top notch condition and found every man seeing plenty of action. Individually, it v as scintillating Bobby Keehn who led the scorers with 118 points despite a temporary mid-season lull. Abe Chern trailed Keehn by only seven points in the scoring marathon and was by far the outstanding man on the floor. Chern's passing and defensive work was consistently prominent in every game. Frank Meade at center v as the spearhead of the Bear attack with his inspiring work under the basket, and invariably held the upper hand on his taller opponents in off-the-board play. Hal xMoyer, a dark horse in the early season, suddenly found himself as a scoring threat and placed third in the scoring list with 62 tallies. Captain Jus Bodley closed his career at Ursinus with some fine performances tov ard the end of the season and led the team out of chaos into success in the closing games. Bodley played a good defensive game and v as also 102 an the Basketball Court a big factor in recoveries off the backboards. Bill Power broke into the lineup in mid-season and gave a good account of himself throughout the final half of the schedule. Possessing a good eye on set shots, Pov er was always a scoring threat and handed in some fine defensive exhibitions. Ed Thompson, Howard Wise, and John Wise rounded out the active squad. URS1NUS 35—GETTYSBURG 28. The Grizzlies dropped the highly touted cup defenders to open the season in a whirlwind game marked by smooth floor play and shooting exhibition of the local courtmen. Ursinus was in the lead all the way in winning the best game of the season. URSINUS 45 SWARTHMORE 44. A last minute one hand stab by Ed Thompson eked out a one point victory over the strong Swarthmore five and awakened the court circles to the strength of the Ursinus basketeers. Keehn's 20 points set the stage for the closing drive capped by Thompson's game-deciding effort in the thrill-packed contest. URSINUS 26—ALBRIGHT 43. The Bears found their first defeat bitter at the hands of the Albright Lions. It was the roughest game of the season and saw Hal Moyer deliberately kayoed by Albright guard McCrann as the climax to a typical exhibition which has led to Albright's being put on probation for next season in the league. URSINUS 52—LEBANON VALLEY 46. Examinations halted activities momentarily but the courtment resumed play strongly in crushing the Annville team. It was a close scrap all the way but Keehn's total of 22 points topped the scales in the final reading. URSINUS 35 F. and M. 41. A rude setback in the form of an unexpected defeat at the hands of the Diplomats opened the disastrous mid-season losing streak on the home court. It was another close contest but F. and M.'s Snodgrass and Landers put on a private spurt at the end to stop the Grizzly.

The non-conference Wildcat invaded the Bear den to claw out a decisive victory over the bewildered Grizzlies. The only highlight of the fray was Abe Chern's remarkable feat of holding the sensational Duzminski to three points but Jim Montgomery evened this score with 18 points of his own. URSINUS 25 MUHLENBERG 33. The demoralized basketeers suffered their third defeat of the same week on the home court and left the high spirited Ursinus fans bemoaning a bad season. The Bear attack dragged and the de fense leaked throughout this devastating period. URSINUS 38 LEBANON VALLEY 61. This famine lasted long enough for Hashagen's crew to get crushed by Lebanon Valley in the fracas which saw Ravmie Frey run up the amazing league record-breaking total of 34 points to almost single-handedly defeat the Bears. URSINUS 29 ALBRIGHT 25. A revamped lineup composed itself long enough to stop the Lion in an uneventful game on the home court to end the four game losing streak. URSINUS 33—MUHLENBERG 35. The Mules scored the only double victory of the season over Ursinus in another thrill-packed fuss in Allentown's Little Palestra. A spirited rally in the end fell short by the scant margin of two points of pulling the scrap out of the fire. URSINUS 24 -DREXEL 39. The most stinging defeat of the season came from the Drexel Dragon in Philadelphia. The Bears went on their worst scoring famine of the year and resorted to foul shooting to run up the score they did. URSINUS 42 F. S M. 34. Opening the most successful weekend trip in years the Grizzlies crushed the Diplomats on the spacious Lancaster Armory floor with Bodley. Power, and Chern reviving the Bear scoring punch with eleven points apiece. URSINUS 30 GETTYSBURG 38. Hashagen's band of remotivated court-men gave the league leading Bullets the best game of the season on the Battlefield court but fell short by a few points in the closing minutes. The brand of bail played on this trip was a recall to the early season form of the team. URSINUS 39—DREXEL 29. The locals took the Dragon by ten points ir. the curtain closer through a torrid twenty point spurt in the final seven minutes of the season. Captain Jus Bodley ended his career with ten points to pace the attack. Managers Howland and DeWire keep a check on the time and score 104 Back row: Gilbert, Wise. Hartline. Bowen. Pawling, and Wood. Front row: McConnell. Koncace. Johnson. Fetterman, Bicry, and Jacobs. Freshman Basketball Squad The Kellett-coached freshman basketeers closed their 1938 season rather haplessly, when they lost thirteen games, defeating only Albright Frosh and going down to defeat valiantly before such teams as the Penn J.V.'s, Consho-hocken Hi-Club, Norristown Y.M.C.A., and Perkiomen Prep. In their first game of the season, the Kellettman started out strongly against the Norristown Y but were overtaken in the second half. Traveling to Potts-town, the Cubs lost to Hill School by a one-poin: margin after leading until the final minutes of the game. Playing against Albright Frosh, Perkiomen Prep, Curtis High, and Villanova Frosh, they went down to defeat when their opponents accumulated a winning margin of at least 12 points per game. After bowing to Girard by the small margin of four points, the Bearlets pointed for a victory against Albright Frosh and emerged with one by the score. 36-26. Losing another game to the Norristown Y, the freshman scented a victory over the Drexel plebes, but were turned back 44-42. In a hard fought game a smooth Penn J.V. quintet ran up a 17 point margin at the Palestra against the Cubs. Drexel Frosh took a close game from the Bearlets, and in the final game of the season Conshy Hi-Club set them back 44-31. Don Fetterman was high man in the scoring column with 73 points to his credit; Jacobs followed with 61; Biery with 58; and Johnson had 56. Roncase. starting late in the season, had 32 points in 7 games. Woman’s Basketball Team Hack Row: Miss Oudcrkirk. Kerstetter. Rothcrmel. Ross. Shoemaker. Harshaw, Robinson. and Miss Snell. Middle Row: Ehmann. Mattis. Schultz, and Bishop. Front Row: Snyder. Clailin. Meyers. VonKleeck. and Hutt. 1 he co-ed basketeers enjoyed a very successful season, winning seven games, tieinq one and losing only two. The two set-backs came at the beginning of the season at the hands of Roseinont and Swarthmore. The most exciting game of the season was the tie-game with Beaver which ended 21-21. Individual honors go to Captain Meyers who constantly outplayed her forward every minute of the time and Bunny Harshaw who was a consistent high scorer throughout the year, scoring 179 points, or an average of 18 points per game. Blanche Schultz, Ann Robinson, and Slim Shoemaker on the defense and Squeeky VonKleeck, and Peg Claflin on the offense completed the varsity combination. THE SEASON URSINUS 17- SWARTHMORE 25 Playing in their opponents' backyard, the Ursinus lassies dropped their initial game to the Swarthmore co-eds. Although the first half started off well, only one point was scored in entire second period. Swarthmore's man-to-man defense completely baffled the Ursinus team. URSiNUS 21—ROSEMONT 24. In a slow game the Ursinus sextette dropped their second game by the score of 24-21. Only a few times during the game did the co-eds show the brilliant and fast playing of which they were capable. Although Captain Meyers played a splendid defensive game, the team again failed to click. URSINUS 30—NEW COLLEGE 23. For the first time the team seemed to get together and really play. Bunny Harshaw led the attack with 18 points, and Squeeky VonKleeck was second with 10 counters. The guard combination shewed up very well, with Captain Edna Meyers' work again being outstanding. 106 ■ II is Victorious URSINUS 33—BRYN MAWR 24. Continuing their winning streak, the Ursinus basketeers carried away another victory over Bryn Mawr. Bunny Harshaw was again high scorer with 19 points to her credit. Again Edna Meyers was outstanding on the defense. URSINUS 51— MORAVIAN 7. In a complete walk-away, the Ursinusites showed themselves far superior in ability and technique. The ball was seldom in Moravian territory. Bunny Harshaw piled up a total of thirteen field shots and five free shots and Squeeky VonKleeck added eight field goals as the Ursinus girls v ent on a scoring spree. URSINUS 21—BEAVER 21. In one of the best played games of the season, the Snellians came from behind and tied the score in the last minute of play. Beaver led 14-9 at the end of the first half. In spite of renewed efforts, Ursinus remained behind until the closing minute of play when Marie Mattis, substitute forward, sank a beautiful long shot to tie the score. URSINUS 45—DREXEL 12. The less experienced Dragon team was completely swamped when the female Grizzlies traveled to Drexel's courts to defeat them by the overwhelming score of 45-12. Bunny Harshaw and Squeeky VonKleeck accounted for 29 and 16 points respectively. URSINUS 47—PENN 12. Continuing their high scoring tactics, the girls proved too strong for the Penn lassies. Bunny Harshaw had 22 points, VonKleeck 12. URSINUS 26—MT. ST. JOSEPH 7. In another walk away game the Bears overwhelmed the Mount by the score of 26-7. Harshaw was as usual high scorer with 14 points and VonKleeck followed with 10. URSINUS 35- -TEMPLE 20. The last game of the season ended with Edna Meyers leading her team to a brilliant victory over Temple. Temple held down the Snellians during the first half but after that were completely swamped before a barrage of goals by Harshaw, VonKleeck, and Claflin. 107 'Wrestling Team puts Left to right: Manager Main. Knoll. Astheimer. Stoinmetz. Meklos. Grove. Snyder. Captain Hayashi. and Coach Stevens. Coach Pete Stevens' Bear grapplers found the going pretty tough during the 1937 season, losing all five of their dual meets. The team was handicapped throughout the season by a lack of experienced men, and by the inability to supply a contestant in the 126 pound class. Both the Gettysburg meet and the Haverford tussel might have resulted in an Ursinus victory had it not been necessary to forfeit the 126 pound class to the opponents. The Middle Atlantics brought out latent power in the Ursinus team and partially atoned for the poor record in dual meets, as the Bears won second place and installed three individual champions. Prospects for next year's team are enhanced by the promise shown by several freshman grapplers, notably Witman, Armstrong, and Eavenson, in the jayvee meets. THE SEASON URSINUS 0—PENN 40. The Bears met a formidable foe in the first match of the season, losing by the maximum score, 40-0, at Penn. Ten of Penn's points were unearned, however, as Ursinus was forced to forfeit in the 126 and 135 pound classes. Penn's clever blind grappler, Bob Allman, ga%re the Red and Blue the advantage in the opening bout, pinning Captain Hayashi in 2:14. From then on it v as all Penn, Althouse, Grove, Steinmetz, Astheimer and Knoll all falling via the pin route. URSINUS 8—TEMPLE 26. The first home meet of the year saw Pete's grapplers drop a 25-8 decision to a more experienced Temple squad. The Owls garnered three falls, two decisions, and the default in the 126 pound class. lohnny Knoll and Captain Hayashi, the big and small of the Ursinus team, were the only Bear winners, Knoll throwing Nichols after a seven-minute struggle, with Hayashi winning the referee's decision over Temple's Art Osser. URSINUS 14 2- GETTYSBURG 9Vi. The 126 pound class forfeit proved the margin of victory by which the Bullets downed the Bears at Gettysubrg.

Bill Grove, Charley Steinrnetz, and Gordon Astheimer all won their first bouts of the year. Grove and Astheimer by pins, and Steinrnetz by a decision, giving Gettysburg a two-point margin going into the heavyweight division. ''Tiny” Knoll then gave his all for the Bear cause, but lost a close decision to Chester. URSINUS 16—HAVERFORD 18. Vitally handicapped again by the 125 pound forfeit, the Bear grapplers dropped another close one to Haverford in Thompson - Gay Gymnasium. Hayashi again started Ursinus off on the right foot, pinning Haverford's Park Longcope in 8:39, and Astheimer also won by a fall over Bailey. George Meklos, wrestling for the first time in the season, turned in a decision in the 155 pound division, as did Knoll in the heavy weight class. URSINUS 6 -LAFAYETTE 20. Ursinus won only two bouts in the final dual meet of the season, Meklos and Steinrnetz winning decisions. Captain Hayashi. closing his collegiate wrestling career, lost a close overtime match in the 118 pound class. Snyder, Fritz, Astheimer, and Knoll also lost by decisions, and Wardlow, wrestling his first varsity bout, lost by a fall in the 126 pound devision. Conference champion Meklos met a tartar in Co-captain Doolittle, but won out on a decision. MIDDLE ATLANTIC TOURNAMENT Hayashi, Astheimer, and Steinrnetz won first place honors as the Bears upset the dope by finishing ahead of Lafayette, last year's champions, to take second place in the Middle Atlantic Collegiate Wrestling Association tournament at Gettysburg on March 5. The host school won the competition with 35 points, Ursinus was second with 23, Lafayette followed closely with 22, and Haverford trailed with 12. Grove earned a second'place for Ursinus, while Meklos and Knoll took third places. 10!)

Kenneth Fisher. Established five years ago, the Hall Chemical Society has this year been reorganized in an attempt to increase its service to the students. The membership requirement was reduced to enable chemistry students to have three full years as members of the society. Visiting memberships, open to all Ur-sinus students interested in inspecting industrial chemical plants, were instituted as the result of the success of a trip to the Kimble Glass Company in Vineland, New Jersey, in the spring of 1937. Meetings were held in the Science Building twice a month, at which guests, professors, or students lectured on various phases of chemistry. Moving pictures relating to chemistry were also shown. Other activities included a visit to the Chemical Industries Exhibit in New York City and attendance at the fall and spring meetings of the Intercollegiate Student Chemists held at the University of Delaware. OFFICERS President Secretary Frank J. Tornetta Arthur F. Martin MEMBERS no Brotherhood of St. Paul The Brotherhood of St. Paul is one of the oldest organizations on the Ursinus campus. It was founded on November 21, 1905 by Dr. James I. Good, Dean of the School of Theology at Ursinus from 1892 until 1907 and Professor of English Bible and Church History in the College from 1907 until his death in 1924. This group has for its purpose the cultivation of the Christian principles among its members and on the campus. Composed of pre-ministerial students, the group meets once a month at the home of its adviser, Dr. Russell Sturgis. This year various members have conducted discussions on several aspects of the general topic, Defining God . In addition to these meetings members conduct services in neighboring churches. Deputation teams consisting of a speaker and a quartet are sent upon request to nearby churches of all denominations. The Bortherhood year closes with the annual banquet held early in May at which time the newly-elected officers are installed. OFFICERS President.......................................Albert C.

Regular meetings are held on Monday nights at the home of Dr. Norman E. McClure, who is the sponsor. The main object of the organization is to acquaint its members with the best books and the most outstanding authors of today and yesterday. The dues are used to buy books, which, throughout the year, are circulated among the members, read, discussed, and reported on. At the end of the year, each member receives one of these books for her own library. The type of literature is varied, fiction and non-fiction, thereby meeting the specific likes of all. Some of the books purchased and reported on this year were: Life with Mother, The Blue Mills, The Citadel, And So, Victoria, Lamb and His Contemporaries, Katherine Mansfield's Shyrl Stories, The Years, Eight Decades, and The Prodigal Parents.

Instead of picking subjects at random to be discussed in the bi-monthly, Wednesday night meetings, the members discussed material which was helpful in preparation for the comprehensive examinations. The first semester was devoted to a discussion of the assigned summer readings, and the second semester was spent in a comprehensive study of the French language, literature, culture, history, and geography. The regular meeting-place was changed from the West Music Studio to various dormitories so that the meetings would be more informal. The membership. which is limited to students in advanced French courses, totals at the present time thirty-two. President Vice President Secretary Treasurer OFFICERS ....................Anne M.

A permanent constitution was adopted by the Forum Committee at the beginning of the third year of its existence. A committee composed of two seniors, two juniors, three faculty members, and one outsider was established to present at least five speakers to the student body and townspeople during the school year. The mailing list was enlarged and addressograph plates purchased for all names thereon. A file containing the name of each speaker, all information available concerning his previous endeavors, and statements on the meeting, was kept for the reference of future committees. In November, Judge Harold G. Knight, President Judge of Montgomery County, spoke on Juvenile Delinquency . The Social Significance of Anglo-American Contacts was the subject of the December Forum with Richard H. Heindel of the University of Pennsylvania as the speaker. The second semester series was begun with William A. Stinson of Philadelphia speaking on A Confused Business Outlook. Dr. Leslie Pickney Hill, President of Cheyney State Teachers' College followed on March 6 -with the topic Getting on Together. The season was closed with Dr. Jesse H.

Hartzell, has made rapid strides toward becoming a v ell established Ursinus organization. This year, with an increased membership, the Club has arranged its programs under a four-point outline: (1) The improvement in German speech. (2) A better knowledge of geographical Germany. (3) An appreciation of German writers and literature. (4) The learning of German customs and songs. With this in mind, the meetings were enlivened with games, songs, and hilarious skits along with more serious programs. At Christmas time the German and French Clubs combined for an informal party.

RENEWS VIGOR In sports. Diz Zoll pitches the local nine to a fair season in spite of the discovery of an 1887 edict among Ursinus' dusty annals which forbids the sport. Eshbach and Gaumer break conference broad and high jump records in track while tennis puts up a brave fight. In closing the year we hear Dr. McClure give a classic address on occasion of his inauguration and we see 91 old friends depart v hile it vaguely dawns upon us that we are to be next in line. One of Ursinus' most beloved professors aptly states that March is Winter in the lap of Spring . Warm weather is shy until late in April after an early Easter. Meanwhile Groff is appointed editor of the Weekly and Ditzel takes over the reins of this publication. As Juniors we do well socially and financially with a colorful Prom featuring Alex Eartha's Steel Pier swingsters plus our play Kind Lady , starring Florence Roberts, with a great supporting cast.

Regular weekly meetings are held by the club every Thursday evening in Bomberger Hall, under the direction of its sponsor. Dr. William Philip. The high-light of last year's season was the club's presentation on June 5 of the Swiss operetta, IN SPRINGTIME , which was written and directed by Dr. Philip. Pleasing melodies and dialogue, a quaint Swiss setting, and a marked smoothness of the entire production insured its favorable reception. As a climax for this year's work the club will present on June 4 the popular Gilbert and Sullivan operetta, THE MIKADO. OFFICERS President....................................Dorothea A.

For its Junior Class play the Class of 1938 chose Edward Chodorov's Kind Lady , which it presented on April 10. 1937. This play was adapted from a novel by Hugh Walpole and stressed the more serious side of the drama. The story concerns a kind, eiderly lady who. out of the goodness of her heart, befriends an attractive but rather ruthless young man. How he imposes on her kindness, brings his accomplices to her house, keeps her virtually a prisoner, and cuts her off from the outside world, and how she finally secures outside aid these events furnish the main thread of the plot. The leading roles were capably handled by Florence Roberts and Eli Broidy, the former as the kind lady who lets her heart get the better of her common-sense, and the latter as the young villain who exploits his benefactress. A fine supporting cast rendered them excellent assistance.

Junior Prom The rainy afternoon of April 9. 1937 was succeeded by a beautiful spring night that furnished a romantic setting for one of the most successful dances in the history of Ursinus, the Junior Prom of the class of '38. In addition to being a great social success, the dance was also extremely successful in a financial way. Alex Bartha and his orchestra, coming directly from the world famous Steel Pier in Atlantic City where he has played to thousands of dance lovers, provided a mixture of soft and swing music that satisfied the most critical of dancers. His novelty numbers also proved very entertaining to the capacity crowd that filled the Thompson-Gay Gymnasium. A riot of bright, spring-like colors surrounded the dancing couples, thanks to the all-night ladder and chair climbing of the committee members. A white muslin ceiling gave the gym a cozy atmosphere and contrasted with the brightly-colored crepe paper which hung from the sides. Junior President Bod ley and Prom Chairman Tomlinson lead the promenade with their “first ladies. THE COMMITTEE John G. Tomlinson, Chairman; John W. DeWire. Teru Hayashi, Alexander I-ewis, Kenneth E.

Fenton May Day Ursinus celebrated its annual May Day Fete on Saturday. May 15, 1937 before a large and appreciative audience. The pageant entitled Floralia was written by Audrey Poley and dealt with that porlion of Roman mythology surrounding the deity Flora, goddess of fertility. The role of the picturesque Flora, Queen of Spring, v as portrayed by Virginia Fenton, who was ably aided and abetted by nearly the entire co-ed student body. As a reviewer of the Ursinus Weekly so aptly puts it, Patterson Field, the scene of the pageant, was that day turned into a playground for the gods and goddesses, gnomes and pixies, flowers and seasons, in fact for all things tangible and intangible which could possibly be called upon to celebrate the crowning of Flora. 128 “The Roundabout” Zwing Play TIIK CAST l ml Ki-ttli-w.-ll .

Priestley was the Curtain Club's Zwing Rlay production, presented on May 15, 1937. This play depended for its appeal on its clever dialogue, affording few hearty laughs but making the audience chuckle from beginning to end. The story concerns the antics of a young Englishwoman with a communistic phobia who, after a sojourn in Russia, returns to the home of her aristocratic English father, bringing with her a dilapidated Russian friend. Naturally she and her Russian comrade disturb the staid English household, and their visit precipitates a number of hilarious situations. In the end we find the young Englishwoman back in the family fold and the comrade on his way back to a more appreciative Russia. The principal roles were taken by Mary Helen Stoudt, as the young Englishwoman, and Philip Garber, as the Russian comrade. A well-balanced supporting cast finished off a polished production.

Ballinger Secretary......................................Elizabeth V. Usinger Treasurer.............................................E. Jane Poling The Ursinus College Music Club, under the sponsorship of Dr. William F. Philip, director of music, held regular meetings on the third Tuesday of every month. At these meetings the members presented varied musical programs for the entertainment of the Club. The organization's principal activities during the past year consisted of a trip to Philadelphia to see the operetta, Three Waltzes , and the presentation of a special Christmas program. The membership of the club has increased greatly, which proves that it has succeeded in its effort to promote an active interest and appreciation of music on the Ursinus campus.

Philip, was presented by the Music Clubs on June 5, 1937. The entire production was under the direction of Dr. Philip. The story of in Springtime is that of an American touring party, made uo of a father, mother, and their three daughters, which arrives in an obscure Swiss Village while on a vacation. The plot is woven about the romance between one of the American girls and the son of the inn-keeper, a mountain guide, and minor romances between the pals of the son and the other daughters. The major parts were sung by Paul Craigie, as the son of the inn-keeper; Elizabeth Sherfel, Dorothea McCorkle, and Sally Atkinson, as the three daughters; Doris Snellinger, as the mother; Alfred Bartholomew, as the father; Ward McNair, as the inn-keeper; Louis Krug and Franklin Earnest, as the mountain guides; Paul Snead, as the German waiter; Harriet Adams, Elizabeth Usinger, and Elizabeth Trout, as the Swiss girls; and Rollin Lawrence, as the friend of the inn-keeper. The Glee Clubs combined to round out the chorus consisting of seventy-seven members. “In a Rustic Cabin Dear Heart Maytime” Juniors Harriet C. Adams Alice V. Cressman William C. Ellenbogen Leon D.

Yeomans Special Student On the Four victories and one tie out of eleven games is the record compiled by the 1937 Grizzly batsmen. The victories were registered at the expense of Swarthmore. Lebanon Valley, Villanova, and Juniata, while the Bear bowed to Villanova once. Lehigh, Albright, Temple, Muhlenberg, and Drexel. The tie game was played with Bucknell. The greatest weakness in the Ursinus armor was defense, the team fielding averaging a scant .901. The Bear's hitting was above par, and Zoll, Gemmell, Swift, Ehret, and Clark supplied better than average pitching. Coach Jing Johnson used several different men in the infield in an effort to find the best combination. High spots of the season included Fats'' Costello's .422 batting average, gained in his first year of Varsity baseball; the consistent hitting of Captain Wildonger. Pancoast, and Edwards; the superb flinging of Captain-elect Diz Zoll, and the v ork of Freddy Swift, Freshman pitching find , who led the pitching staff in strikeouts. The team lost through graduation the first-string outfield of Murray, Pancoast, and Twor-zydlo; Third Baseman Costello, First Sacker Wildonger. and Catcher Edwards. URSINUS 25—SWARTHMORE 14. Things looked bad for the Bear cause when the Garnet drove Gemmell to cover with a five-run assault in the first inning, but the Ursinus batsmen came back in the home half to shelf . Dimpfl and McComb from the mound with an eight-run rally, assuming a lead they never relinquished. This slugfest, which was called at the end of seven innings, saw thirty-nine runs and thirty-four hits amassed by the two teams. Fats Costello, playing his first Varsity game, had five hits out of five times at the plate, as did Diz Zoll, who relieved Gemmell in the first inning and received credit for the victory'. Top; Wildonger waits for the throw to first. Middle: Pancoast watches a high fly. Bottom: Gemmell hits a safety. 136 Baseball Diamond URSINUS 5—LEHIGH 14. A six-inning 5-5 deadlock ended in a rout when the Lehigh Engineers blasted out nine runs in the last three innings to gain an easy triumph, solving the offerings of Gemmell and Zoll for 19 safeties. The Johnsonmen garnered 11 bingles off Imbt, Brown and White, Pancoast and Wildonger collecting three apiece. Lack of fielding finesse by the Bear defense was again evident, the Ursinus fielders committing five errors. URSINUS 8 VILLANOVA 18. Another football score was amassed on Longstreth Field when Villa-nova's Wildcats pounded Ehret and Gemmell for 24 hits and 18 runs to gain a seven-inning 18-8 verdict. Desmond, lanky Villanova southpaw twirler, held the Bear stickmen well in check until the seventh inning, when six consecutive Ursinus hits resulted in a futile 5-run rally. Pancoast and Costello were the only Bear bat wielders able to get more than one safe blow, the former collecting three, the latter two. URSINUS 6- ALBRIGHT 15. The Albright Lions spoiled the Bears' League debut and also the debut of Freshman Freddy Swift on the pitching mound. Swift was nicked for 15 bingles in eight frames, which, coupled with seven errors on the part of Ursinus gave Albright a comfortable margin of victory. Another Freshman. Hal Moyer, played his first game at shortstop. Fats Costello again paced the Bears at bat, with three hits out of five times at bat, one of them a booming triple in the third inning. URSINUS 3—TEMPLE 13. Six-run outbursts in the fourth and sixth innings enabled the Temple Owl to hand the Bear diamondmen their fourth straight setback. Ursinus took the lead in the fourth with two runs on Pancoast's triple, Costello's single, and Wild-onger's double. This advantage was short-lived, however, as Temple found Gemmell for seven hits in the home half, including a homer with two on by Mottola, Owl first sacker. Another outburst in the sixth drove the Bear hurler from the mound, Zoll coming in after four more runs had been scored. In the ninth, Windonger smote the Bears' first circuit clout, accounting for the final Ursinus run.

(tie). Poor support ruined a commendable pitching performance by Swift, v ho held the Bison batsmen to nine scattered hits and whiffed eleven in Ursinus' second league start. With the score 8-7 in the Bears' favor going into the ninth inning, two errors and a double allowed two Bucknell runs to cross the platter. Clark, another Freshman, relieved Swift on the hill, and put down the rally with no further scoring. The Freshman hurler became the hero of the game when he drove in the tying run with a robust single in Ursinus' half of the ninth, after which the game was called on account of a time ruling. URSINUS 5—LEBANON VALLEY 2. Diz Zoll let the Lebanon Valley Dutchmen down with three singles as Ursinus won its first League game. The Bears scored twice in the first, once in the third, and twice in the eighth to earn the verdict. Toot” Wildonger's big bat played an important part in the victory; the Bear captain pounded out a triple, double, and single, all of which figured in the scoring. Zoll had the Annville batsmen completely baffled, striking out six and allowing but one base on balls. The sole Lebanon Valley threat came in the sixth, when the Dutchmen put together two hits and an error for a brace of runs. URSINUS 1—MUHLENBERG 2. A1 Gemmell lost a heart-breaking pitchers' duel to Eph Bartleson as the Mules nosed out the Bears by the narrowest of margins. The Bear pitcher fanned eight and gave but four hits, while Bartleson matched his strikeout record but allowed five safe blows. Ursinus took the lead in the first inning when Fats Costello pounded out a booming round-tripper, but the Mules came back to score a run in each of the fourth and fifth innings. Four errors in the field contributed to the downfall of the Bear cause. 138 URSINUS 1—DREXEL 4. The Bears continued their disastrous batting slump, being able to garner only seven safe blows and one run off Zimmers, Drexel hurler, and dropped their second game in a row. Shad Edwards was the only Ursinus batsman able to cope with the offerings of the Dragon pitcher, getting three hits in three trips to the plate. Swift pitched well enough for Ursinus, but the scarcity of Bear runs kept him from the win column. Bill Lignelli, stocky outfielder, did the heavy work for the Drexel clan with three timely hits, driving across two runs and scoring a third himself. The game was featured by the heads-up play of the Dragon flychasers. URSINUS 5—VILLANOVA 4. The Bears avenged an early-season setback at the hands of Villanova, playing errorless ball behind the hurling of A! Gemmell to eke out a hard-earned verdict over the Wildcats on the Main Line field. The game was unusual in that Gemmell walked 14, struck out 5. and allowed 5 hits, while Escott, Villanova act, struck out no less than 15 Bear batters, allowing one walk and ten safeties. Toot Wildonger put the game on ice for Ursinus in the eighth inning, hitting his second four-master of the season wtih Pancoast on base. URSINUS 3 -JUNIATA 2. Ursinus closed its season in impressive style, handing Juniata its first league defeat in a tight pitchers' duel that was not decided until the eighth inning, when the Bears scored the two runs that spelled victory. Although Rohrer, ace of the Indians' pitching staff, allowed but three hits, the Bears used them to advantage, Pancoast's double driving in the first Ursinus tally, while hits by Murray and Edwards decided the issue in the eighth. Captain-elect Diz Zoll turned in an excellent performance on the mound, striking out three and keeping the seven Juniata hits well scattered. Standing: Quay. Atkinson. Swift. Tworzydlo. Power.

Playing through an eight game schedule, the Ursinus racquetteers were unable to put across a single win. The team tutored by Coach George R. Tyson had only two veteran players, Co-Captains Mitch Fenimore and Clayton Worster, the remainder of the team being made up of newcomers Jus Bod-ley, Wimpy Lauer, Harvey Quay, and Bumps Landis. The poor showing of the courtmen may be laid to the inexperience of the players and the stiff competition which they v ere called upon to meet. In the opening game, Swarthmore trimmed the Red and Black 5-0. Against West Chester, Worster, in the singles, and I-auer and Landis, in the doubles, were the Bears' only winners. Muhlenberg, Albright, and Haverford turned them back v ith complete shut-outs, 7-0. At P. M. C., the Grizzly courtmen were set back 6-1 with Mitch Fenimore, the only match winner. The closest match of the season was played against Drexel, but the Bears wer still unable to put across a win, losing 6-2. The team was managed by Abe Lip-kin and elected Jus Bodley to captain the 1938 courtmen. The men who earned letters were Co-Captains Fenimore and Worster, Bodley, Landis, Quay, Lauer, and Lipkin. Co-Captains Wostcr and Fenimore serving. 140 7omen’s Tennis Squeeky serves a fast one. The women's tennis team, captained by Virginia Fenton, had a brilliant season, scoring six victories against a lone defeat by Swarthmore. Credit for the admirable showing of the co-eds must go to Bunny Harshaw and Squeeky VonKleeck, who, with Libby Ware, handled the single assignments. The doubles team of Harshaw and VonKleeck was also an almost invincible combination. The other doubles combination of Slim Shoemaker paired with either Jane Roberts or Ginna Fenton rounded out the co-ed team. The team was coached by Miss Eleanor F. Snell and managed by Dorothy Barry. Bunny Harshaw. Captain-cicct Ware rocs after a hard Wore, and Squeeky Von- drive. Kleeck. The first game for the Ursinus team was a disappointing one. but one not indicative of the games to follow. Playing on Swarthmore's courts, the Ursinus girls lost to the Quakers 5-0. Meeting Albright on our own courts was a different story. Albright bowed before the fine playing of our girls, so that the final score was 5-0 in our favor. The next week the visiting Penn team was defeated 5-0. Beaver met the same fate — the same score. The successful team brought the season to a close by sweeping through Drexel, Rosemont, and Mount St. Joseph by the decisive scores of 4-1, 2-1, and 5-0 respectively. Hi The College Track Team Mackenson leads the way in the low hurdles. Eshbach leaps far and wide. Bolstered by the addition of competent Freshman talent to replace stars lost through graduation last year, the Bear squad enjoyed a successful season in 1937. winning two out of three dual meets. A fourth meet with Gettysburg was canceled because of rain. The Grizzlies opened the season by bowing to F. and M. at Lancaster. The next dual meet saw Ursinus came from behind in the last three events to beat Albright, 66' 1-59 . The closest meet was the last one. in which Ursinus placed one-two in the final event to nose out St. Josephs, 63!4S2' . The Bear tracksters did not fare so well outside of the dual meets. In the Eastern Collegiate Conference Meet at Muhlenberg. Ursinus finished last, although Gaumer and Eshbach broke the Conference records in the high jump and broad jump respectively. In the Middle Atlantic Meet at Gettysburg, Ursinus could garner but one place, a tie for fifth in the high jump by Captain Gaumer. Captain Gaumer led his mates in scoring for the season, accounting for 28 points. Close behind came Glenn Eshbach with 24 points to his credit. Standouts among the Freshman tracksters were Shorty Schirmer, hurdler, high-jumper, and v eight man; Bill Albe, champion New Jersey schoolboy miler; Charley Steinmetz, in the weights and pole vault; and Elmer Regn and Albie McConnell, both of whom ran the middle distances. URSINUS 50—F. AND M. 76. Weakness in track events cost the Bears their opening meet with Franklin and Marshall, the Diplomats piling up a large advantage in the running events which the Grizzlies could not match on the field. Gaumer and Schirmer each accounted for a first and a second for Ursinus, gained in the high-jump and high hurdles respectively, and Eshbach took the broad-jump with ease. Other first-place winners for the Bears v ere Albie McConnell in the 440 and Pappy Padden in the javelin. 142 has an Exciting Season EASTERN COLLEGIATE CONFERENCE MEET AT MUHLENBERG. Although they fared badly, on the whole, the Grizzly tracksters carried home two individual championships. both of %vhich were also new Conference meet records. Captain Gaumer won the high-jump with a leap of 5 feet 11 inches to tetter the old mark, and Eshbach catapulted 22 feet 3s s inches in the broad-jump, which also set a new Conference standard. Other Ursinus points were gained by McConnell, Padden, Wynkoop, and Schirmer. Drexel annexed the title with 45 points. F. and M. had 43, Gettysburg, 27; Muhlenberg, 24, and Ursinus, 15. MIDDLE ATLANTIC INTERCOLLEGIATE MEET AT GETTYSBURG. Ursinus had only tv o representatives in this meet, Gaumer and Eshbach. Gaumer placed in a fourway tie for fifth in the high-jump, his mark being 6 feet, v hich was 112 inches under the standard set by the winner. In the broad-jump trials, which v ere hampered by a muddy field, Eshbach qualified for the finals with a leap of 19 feet 6 inches, but unfortunately was unable to stay for the finals, and his mark was beaten in the jump-off. Haverford won the meet with 35 9 10 points, closely followed by Rutgers with 31. URSINUS 66! —ALBRIGHT 59 . The Bear cinder men finished with a rush in the last three events to overcome an Albright lead and annex their first victory of the season. The Lions were ahead, 58! j-44 !.., with only three events remaining, but Hashagen's men took the first two places in the low hurdles, swept all three places in the two-mile run, and then Eshbach administered the coup de grace with his usual first in the broad-jump. The Bears took seven first places, the winners being Captain Gaumer in the high-jump; Eshbach in broad-jump; Schirmer in the high hurdles; Mackenson in the low hurdles; Regn in the 880; Albe in the mile, and Yoh in the two-mile. URSINUS 631 2 -ST. JOSEPH 62J 2. In one of the most thrilling meets ever held on Patterson Field, the Bears defeated the Hawk trackmen by coming from behind to win the last tv o events, the javelin and the broad-jump. The individual heroes of the aay were Padden and Stein-metz in the javelin, and Eshbach and Dresch in the broad-jump. With St. Joseph's needing only five points to clinch the meet, they v ere limited to a second in the javelin, and a third in the broad-jump.

The high point of the intramural year was the annual Intramural Night on April 6, when over three hundred spectators jammed the Thompson-Gay Gymnasium to see the champions crowned in boxing, wrestling, ping-pong, and foul shooting. FOOTBALL In a hard-fought play-off game, the Brodbeck Barons defeated the Curtis Marines 12-6 before the largest crowd ever to witness an interdorm game. Curtis scored first on a Statute of Liberty play, with Lefty Miller going 30 yards for the score. Brodbeck came back in the second half to register two touchdowns to cop the ball game. The winning score was the result of a spectacular forward-lateral pass between Moyer and Atkinson. HOCKEY In the interclass hockey competition, the Sophomore girls came out on top after v alking rampant over the other three classes. TENNIS Although many of the matches were handicapped and delayed by the bad weather, Jim Dietz finally emerged as champion by defeating Frank Wood in three straight sets. 6-4, 6-4, 7-5. In the semi-finals the runner-up had defeated VanTries. and the new champ had eliminated Rowland. BASKETBALL In a hard-fought play-off game. Day Study, second half champ, nosed out Brodbeck. first half winner, 18-17. The score was tied at 10 all at the end of the half, but Harris of Day clinched the game when he scored a goal in the waneing minutes of the game. In the female competition, Day and Shreiner kept abreast of each other until the end of the season when Day forged ahead to take the title. BOXING AND WRESTLING With the score 74-66 in favor of Brodbeck, Gordon Astheimer punched his way to victory over Dave Jacobs in an over-time bout to register 10 points and earn the team trophy for Stine, 76-74. Derr, Curtis, and Freeland followed the leaders at respectable distances. FOUL SHOOTING Bobby Keehn, varsity guard, sank 41 of his 50 tosses to cop the laurels in this department at the Intramural Night. PING-PONG Tay Hayashi eliminated Wozniak and Kuns in hotly contested matches to be crowned 1938 champ of the minature racquet wielders. Jane Roberts, following Tay's example, defeated Laura Collom to take the female ping-pong crown. INTERCLASS TRACK MEET (1937) The class of 1940 easily took first place by winning more places than the other three classes put together. The Seniors, Sophomores, and Juniors followed in that order. MUSHBALL (1937) Brodbeck once again forged to the front in the mushball league, repeating their victory of last year. Curtis and Stine tried their best but could only garner ties for second place. 144 FOOTBALL John I. Porambo, Captain C. Gordon Astheimer Charles T. Bardsley, jr. J. Justus Bodley George E.

Thus, we are putting out a yearbook which the class is able to support financially. In the past, editors have made much of the vast amount of work involved in putting out The Ruby. But since the work has been completed, there is no need to write about all the troubles that are now over. Suffice it to say that with all the discouragements and worries that befall an editor and business manager, there are always found a few persons whose generous assistance help to lighten the burden of preparing and publishing the yearbook, and to them I acknowledge my indebtedness and wish to express my appreciation: To the Class of 1938, for the confidence they have shown in electing me editor. To those members of the Editorial Staff who responded to my many calls for assistance with the write-ups; and especially to Ralph Meisenhelder and Eli Broidy for their ever-ready willingness to lend a hand with the copy. To J. Douglas Mertz, the business manager, and his assistants, Benjamin Longaker and James Russo, for their efficient financial management and reliability; and to the rest of the business staff for their cooperation in securing advertisements and handling the circulation of the book. To the College, for its cooperation throughout the publication, and for the use of several rooms to have photographs taken. To John B. Edwards, '40 and Leonard H. Caldwell, '34, for the excellent sports pictures and other snapshots used in this volume. To the Sarony Studio, particularly Mr. N. Francis Rubin, for his helpful cooperation and assistance, and the staff photographers for their excellent individual and group photographs. To the Pontiac Engraving Co., particularly Mr. Art G. Sharp, for the art work, layouts, engravings, and ever-ready assistance. To Schlechter's Printers, particularly Mr. Edward W. Schlechter, for their advice, interest, and excellent printing. Finally, to all those people who have had to put up with me these past few months when things were not going right, and especially to my roommate who had to live in the midst of books, pictures, copy and what not and still has helped me with the editorial work.
