JITUATED BETWEEN THE spheres of influence of Philadelphia and New York lies a small world a world as individual as any in the universe. Within the hounduries of Ursinus College are all the powers necessary in any world. Come with us through the Eger Gateway and see the monuments of progress in education upon which each succeeding class huilds in this small world within a world. ‘Sut ?4 ( owfeCetc One ■ ■ ■ mill's CIILLEIiti I i 1 I' I i li li II li . li li II r 76e ‘PeteattcU ffrfcroacA 7a Sducatica, iRaided 7t la t SataCi aCieye 6j3 ET OND THE LECTURE ROOMS arc llic spacious lands of personal relation ships that large universities and colleges cannot hope to explore. Here at I rsinus, the friendships which arise between students and professors and among students themselves lead to the basic function of small college life. A student is not a name in a classroom; he is a person to whom every acquaintance will mean a bire successful and secure step in the future.

The Library has its meeting rooms, music room, and assortments of imposing hook stacks. Bomberger Hall and its music rooms, chapel, and recreation centers arc remembered for years after graduation. The athletic fields, dorms, footpaths -all link some personal event or idea io I rsinus College life.

Such is not the case at Ursinus, however. We know I)r. McClure through classes; we know Mrs. McClure through her receptions. Miss Stahr is both a preeeptress and an understanding friend. W e know Dean Pancoast through his classes and his casual,perhaps unexpected trips to the men's dorms. And we know Dr. Hclfferich through his capable Curtain Club leadership. Our knowledge of these people not as figureheads but as understanding friends is another advantage of out life at Ursinus. 'ViAian and ]n i6y t ( Aaxactexije Oux eadexa 00 Donald L.

Before one even enters the school, he meets the Registrar; each female student quickly knows her preceptress as a mother away from home; and, of course, everyone experiences those trips to the Infirmary and those hills from the Treasurer. We know all of these people through fiiendly relationships. They, too, help to make us really know Ursinus. TREASURER’S OFFICE l. fi lo right: I £o J. Corby, Jamr R. Rue, t jlhfc Ang-iadt.

Stunned by the tribulations of customs we started our freshman year at Lrsinus. Customs weren’t so bad, though. After three weeks. Bruno’ Brincr, “Most Fragile Agile Annie, and their crew rclinguished control over us and we began to resemble a well-organized class. After the election of our officers, Bob Gilgore, president; Dick Dickerson, vice-president; Hon Usher, treasurer; and Reggie Cairo, secretary, we were finally recognized as a class. However, we shall never forget the skirmishes we had with the Sophs in electing our officers and holding our banquet. These memories and those of Homecoming W eekend, Christmas celebrations, first finals, our freshman dance, and May Day festivities we will always remember. And now. as we review the fun and work of our freshman year, we are eagerly looking forward to returning in the fall as sophomores.

F.mma Bell, secretary, and Dick Winchester, treasurer, became a part of the working unit at Irsinus College. The first endeavor by die class in the form of a dance, “Ebb Tide,” was very well received. I he coming of the sophomore year brought many new responsibilities to the class. Customs, under the able direction of ‘Tragile Agile Ann Shick and “Bruno the Animal Briner. were carried out to their limit of capabilities. This year the class was led by President Joe Donia; Hal Singley, ice-president: Diane Arms, secretary; and Dick Winchester. treasurer. The Sophomore dance, “Fantasy in Fire.” was certainly a milestone for the class in that die Buddy Winters Orchestra set a standard that will be hard to equal. The dance was highlighted by the choice of Jim Bartholemew and Judy Berry as King and Queen of Hades. With its gay and vivid decorations and pleasant music, the dance was another social success for the Class of 1957. The sophomores then acted as hosts to the entire student body with their spring presentation of the annual Soph Hop. With two years already quickly gone, we arc looking forward to even brighter prospects in the next two years. Four members of the Class of 1957 preparing for a night at the Prom Joan Bradley.

Kspecially fresh in our minds are frosh customs under soph rulers Lois Leonard and AI Paolonc. Rowland Hutchinson was elected as president of our class which held two successful dances- -“The Queen of Hearts and “The Bunny Hop with lovely artistic decorations. “Hutch again served as our Sophomore Class president. That year our class directed frosh customs under .Nesta Lewis and Ray Drum. Our social calendar included “Cornstalk Capers, the Soph Hop, “April in Paris, and a dance held in conjunction with the Freshmen, “The Mardi-Gras. nd now, here we are as Juniors looking forward with eagerness and hope. This year we elected Paul cborak as president of our class. Paul is a day student and holds an honor not often claimed by non-resident students. In the fall we presented Harvest Moon Ball. Our social year ended with our Junior Prom held in nearby Sunny brook.

With thk CREKn-dinkkd girls bellowing “W’c Freshmen are a motley clan designed to bow to you to “Sad Pan Nan and the freshmen boys pet forming on the steps for the sophomore men, we began our four-year stay at Ursinus. After electing Charley Kenney to lead ns and spending some anxious moments before the Freshman Hanquct, we officially became a class and presented a struggling soph ruler to the happy group. Second semester brought fraternity rushing parties for our boys, and later in the spring they took their fraternity trips, traveling almost anywhere and doing almost anything in one brief weekend. Celestial Fantasy was our first function and we soon became acquainted with the Ursinus springtime—sunbathing, dinner dances, and final exams. We elected Gene Harris our sophomore president, a position he retained for the remaining years of our college history. ‘‘Lovable Lo and Al Paolone and their crew made full use of our powers over the bewildered freshmen. The tables were soon turned, however, when our girls passed through the rigors of sorority rushing. Two dances held the spotlight Hit Parade Jamboree in the fall, and Junf'le Rhythm, our big dance in the spring featuring a real menagerie of jungle life. We began our junior year with the sophisticated Penthouse Serenade and replenished our treasury by selling “I rsus , the I rsinus mascot. Scfitnl: F.ilirl I.ulz. secretary, and Gene Harris, president. Shuttling: Cliet Frankenficld, loyally fund chairman, and Larry artman, reunion chairman. A new spirit was found at the pep rallies as they turned into jam sessions in front of Preeland, and caper freshmen led snake dances around the campus. This was the year Bermuda shorts and knee socks invaded the campus. Time for the Junior Prom and we turned oriental and featured Hasu ' Kisama as our theme. Mary Lou Sinper became our queen and six junior men became proud members of Cub and Key. Before closinp our junior year we treated the campus to an old fashioned minstrel show. Seniors at last and a busy year awaited us. We witnessed the best football season in our four year stay and December rolled around before we had realized it. With it came the senior ball. Frosted Fantasy, and hours of work cutting snowflakes. Our last Christmas and the senior girls' decorations won at tin Banquet. Somehow we couldn't quite realize that this was the lust time we'd sing Silent Might around the towering Christmas tree in the gym. Thi was the year of bigger and belter fraternity parties, definite plans for the new girls’ dorm, the Student Union at last and the memorable raid on the Drug. With the coming of spring we suddenly developed severe cases of “senioritis” - only two more months left ami we would finally he finished. We swung into a final whirl of getting measured for caps and gowns, ordering graduation announce ments, firii'hing the year hook, and we began to wonder if we really were so anxiou to see these lost two months pass. Warm weather brought dinner dances, our last ones, and finally our last exams and graduation. 35 PAUL N. ANGSTADT “.-ings . . . Rohinhood junior grade . . . “retired engineer . . .

ROSI CRUCIANN The attainment of an 87.5 average for four semesters enables I r-sinus women to become permament members of the Rosierucians. Each semester all women attaining this average are invited to attend some function of the Rosicrucians held in their honor and are considered temporary members.

Larh in the spring of their junior year Llsie Relz and Roland Dedekind were elected co-editors and Larr artinan and Katin Fcuclit were chosen business managers. The first job was the selection of the publishing house and photographers. And then the fun began planning tin dummy, scheduling pictures, provoking professors by interrupting classes, having 1 A. M. typing sessions in Room 11 of Shreincr. And for the business manager there was a constant round of selling books, having charge of concessions, selling advertisement and other duties. The task was far from easy but we, the staff, and our fellow students will always feel proud of this, the result of our efforts, the 1955 Ruby. Seated: Elsie Belz and Roland Dedekind, co-editor .

The FIRST ISSUE of the fifty-fourth volume of the I rsiiius Weekly appeared to Ursinus students on Monday evening, October II. 1951. In the issues that followed, many unique features were inaugurated. George I'atiir began a new column entitled “How I See It . . in addition to a series of “Know Your College articles. Harold Smith initiated the dangerous post of plax critic. David Garlich wrote a column called “Abstractly Speaking which forewarned the readers of the article’s contents. Editorials decreased in number and a “Condensed Ed. appeared in several issues. A serial, “Deep Passion, creeped into the paper. Advertising fell off slightly and forced the Weekly to reduce its number of six-page issues.

L A K TERN Harold Smith, editor-in-chief of the Lantern, is talking with the printer regarding the publication of the ram pit literary magazine. Harold succeeded Koland Dedekind in this position. The 1951-55 cademic. Year saw the publication of the three issues of Volume Will of the Lantern, the I rsinus literary journal. These issues were brought out by an enlarged stall' in the fare of a tradition of hostility on the part of the student body toward this publication. However, the staff put forth a great effort to improve the magazine. Results of this effort are obvious to those who read the Lantern. There has been a marked in- crease in the quality and quantity of the material published; covers have been greatly improved; illustrations have become more interesting and appropriate. and, most important of all. the campus interest in and attitude toward the Lantern has become more favorable. The year saw great progress for the Lantern. and, with the help of the student body, such progress can continue. LANTERN STAFF Front row. left to right: Leger. Wagner. Thompson, Schoonniaker.

Within two years, however, there's been a complete transformation. T he selections of the Band are lively and interesting. There’s a definite interest on the part of the members and the student body.

The Inter-Fraternity Council is a group organized for the preservation of fair play among the social fraternities of Ursinus College. The council consists of twelve members, two representatives from each fraternity.

Under the leadership of Don Adams the fraternity sponsored two basic kinds of acti itics: social affairs and community projects. In the first classification were the Homecoming Day dinner at Lakeside, the New Year's Eve party, the annual fraternity party, and the spring dinner-dance at the Heading Country Club. 1954-55 will be most readily recalled for the charitable projects which the fraternity undertook. The donation of a tree to the school campus, the clothing drive, the Christmas party at the Orphans’ Home, and the one hundred dollar contribution to the Campus Chest served to make this the peak in Delta s brief history.

This can be seen in the many functions in which both present and past members engage. The current fraternity is composed of thirty-three members, possessing various talents, and active in many extra-curricular activities on campus. This year Zeta Chi added to campus life by holding its annual “Football Finale and also a dance party with its Tan Sig “sisters. ’ The traditional dinner dance in the spring also highlighted the year’s activities. Having enjoyed fine leadership in the past, the tradition has been bolstered by having top campus leaders head the fraternity. First row: Bowman, S.

Moravian and Brooklyn College replaced Dickenson and franklin and Mai shall, the latter ha ing been snowed out last season.

Captain Ken Walker, elusive half-hack, ended his career after playing a very sparkling brand of hall throughout the entire season. Another very scrappy backfield man, Al “Hear'' Paolotie. hung up his jersey after playing four years with the club. These backfield men were very ably assisted by rugged lineman Nick “the Greek Chapis who leaves an opening in the right tackle slot. Prospects for the 1955 season look very good, despite the loss of these three stalwarts, as “most valuable player of the year Paul Neborak will return to captain a squad which will be comprised of veterans Carver, Donnelly, Hriner, Heydt. Krasley, Slotter, and freshman standout, Dob Famous, who gained considerable fame this past season. And so another winning season on the gridiron came o a close, a season to he remembered by all because of the fight, spirit and grim determination sho' n by each and every player.

After their first league win the courtmcn ran into trouble, the cause of which again proved to he lack of height, our tallest consistent player being a mere 6'2 . By playing a fast, hustling type of ball the Bears were always able to keep up with the opponents for the first half. Then, having expended most of their energy during this first half to stay in the game, the Bruins just couldn’t keep up with the big men who could play a more leisurely type of game. As a result the opponents almost always jumped to a quick third quarter lead which they were able to maintain, coasting to victory. What the team lacked in height they made up in hustle and scrappiness but they just couldn't maintain the fast pace they needed to keep up with their taller opponents throughout the entire game.

Tennis With a successful season of four wins and four losses behind them the 1955 Tennis Team started preparing for the new season. The graduation last spring of five members of the varsity and the absence of Coach Eugene Miller, traveling in Japan, meant the possibility of rough-going for the team. Captain Pete Jcsperson had to build a new team around himself and Jack WesterhoPf. a four year man. Additional mainstays were Tom Ely and Gerry Cox. There were some promising freshmen playing in the intramural tennis tournament last spring. Particularly outstanding was Eugene Moritli who, together with the other newcomers, was a big help. In the absence of Dr. Miller, Sidney Quinn, well known around Collegcvillc, became the teams coach. 19St VARSITY TENNIS TEAM Miller, roach; Kenny, Schwartz., Bernhardt, Jeiperton, Wcslerhoff, Holman.
