THE RUBY Presented by THE SENIOR CLASS—1953 URSINUS COLLEGE I)r. John Harold Brown back Page Two Dedication It is difficult for us to pay sufficient tribute to the man whose name was for so many years synonymous with Ursinus College. Many of his students will long be grateful for Dr. Brownback’s encouragement “You can do it!” his widespread influence, and his genuine and personal interest in every one of them. We remember well the phone call interruptions of all his lectures, the brown shirts, his desire always to meet parents, his “Very superior!” To everyone who knew him. Dr. Brownback was a sympathetic friend and, indeed, Ursinus. Page Three Dr. Maurice W. Armstrong Dean of the College Dr. Maurice V. Armstrong, professor of history ar Ursinus since 1945, and now head of that department, was chosen dean of the college upon the retirement of Dean John W. Clawson in July, 1952. Aside from his professional qualifications, Dr. Armstrong possesses fully those of the genial, sympathetic, yet firm personality that his new position demands. He was graduated from Dalhousie University and later received his M.A., degree from the same University; at Pine Hill Divinity School he earned the degrees of 11.D. and S.T.M. Later Harvard graduated him with the Pli.D. degree. Besides his activities at the college, Dr. Armstrong devotes time to such organizations as the Presbyterian Historical Society and the Pennsylvania Industrial Home for Blind Women. For several years he served as interim minister of the Walnut Street Presbyterian Church in Philadelphia. His book, “The Great Awakening in Nova Scotia , was the Brewer Prize Kssay in Church I listory. Page Four Faculty and Administration Camilla B. Stahr, A.B. Dean of Women (I.

Leading us was President Kd Sella, and under his hand we found that smooth traveling. We had already established ourselves as a class with “The Big Lop” our freshman year and with our sophomore specialty, “The Dancing Tambourine”. Next came the big Junior W eekend, highlighted by the Prom, always one of the outstanding dances of the year, hut to us the best. We are now looking forward to stepping into senior position with a vow to fill it capably. With continuance of the spirit that has always been ours, our last year will surely he our best and most memorable.

Student government ;it Ursinus is the means by which students may govern and discipline themselves. Mthough the men and women have separate student governments, the two Councils work together on problems common to both, such as the proposed Student I nion. The Women’s Student Government Association operates through three major branches the Student Council, the Senate and the Judiciary Hoard and their special committees, as well as through Hall Hoards in each dormitory. As a result, a large proportion of women students are actively engaged in the processes of self-government. The executive arm of the Men’s Student Government Association is the Student Council of thirteen members, representing all four classes. The Council enacts rules, tries discipline cases, and presents student requests to the Administration. Working separately or together, the student governments attempt to foster cooperation between students and Administration and to develop keener spirit and better organization among the students of Ursinus.

With these words the curtain fell on another dramatic success for the Curtain Club, Death Takes a Holiday. The play was directed by Mr. Geoffrey Dolman and Mr. H. Lloyd Jones. Howard Roberts, last year’s president, was magnificent as Death and Glenna Geiger did a superb portrayal of Grazia, the princess who loved him.

The Beardwood Chemical Society proclaims itself a scientific society dedicated to the improvement of the intellectual, educational, and professional standards of the students of chemistry. In 1950 the society became a Student Affiliate Chapter of the American Chemical Society. The organization fosters interest in chemical education by inviting as guest speakers outstanding chemists to the regular monthly meetings, by sponsoring tours of chemical plants and laboratories in the vicinity, by encouraging the preparation of research projects, and In attending regional science conferences. The Prc-med Society winch this year changed its name from J. M. Anders Pre-Med Society to the Browtiback-Andcrs Pre-Med Society, continued its program of presenting excellent speakers in all phases of medicine, not only for those who plan to go to medical school, but for any interested students.

Chief among the pastimes of the meetings is singing folk and popular German music. Last year the club joined with the French club in sponsoring a Fastnacht Hall and in attending a play at the Hedgerow Theatre. Another of the language-culture groups that crowds the activities schedule is the French Club, which has established a reputation for its French films, its party punch, and its Shrove Tuesday Hal Masques.

Varsity Club I hi- earning of a varsity is the ticket of admission to the Varsity club, the men’s athletic organization. It is the Varsity club that conducts the election of the Homecoming Queen each year and that sponsors the Varsity club dance and Old d imer’s Day in the fall. Spring opens the curtain on the club show, chief outlet for the non-sporting talent of the athletics. Kach member of the club is awarded upon graduation a trophy for th athletic service to I rsinus. IV. A. A. Council A successful card party began the year’s activities for the Women’s Athletic Association under the presidency of Elbe Unger. The proceeds from this affair were put into the scholarship fund the W.A.A. maintains for deserving physcial education majors. A hilarious “Sockey-hoccer” game followed in late November when the men’s soccer ream, dressed in anything from soccer iniforms to ragged sweat suits and tennis shoes, slid their way to a 2-2 tie with the girls’ varsity hockey team. The Variety show second semester was a success in every way. Proceeds from this show were put into a fund for an electric scoreboard for the T (i Gym. A basketball game between the man’s and women’s varsity teams and another card party finished out the year. I i Pagc Ninety-three Front row: I.cet, Harris. I.ightfoor.
