SENIOR CLASS HISTORY OFFICERS President Donald MattKews Vice-President William Medford Secretary -Treasurer Frances Perry Four years have passed and we as Seniors draw near to the end of a collegiate career. We are the product, moulded during the course of four years in which we have been subjected to the influences of the college of our choice. I Iuch of great significance has taken place during our sojourn here. In order to appreciate the present, we must look into the past— Remember the old hungry bread line hud- dled along the gymnasium both in the sun and in the rain? How many times we have told a 1940 Freshman our vicissitudes until their amazement and dismay caused us to wonder if they questioned our credulity. Can we forget how ve used to penetrate the gloomy dungeon in the basement of Bill Smith Hall, where we diligently perused dusty volumes until the dimly lighted pages became indistinguishable? Remember how the students in the class rooms were almost nauseated by the fumes of pungent chemicals which seeped through the floor of the old chemistry lab? We remember only too distinctly and realize with greater appreciation the fullness of our four collegiate years. Unique is the position of our class, for seldom, if ever, vill a class witness the erection of three buildings during the lapse of four short years. The growth of the College is one significant feature which we have watched with pride and admiration. But we have grown individually as well. Slowly, yes, but steadily. Reflect a moment in self-analysis. The individuals which entered the portals of the College in the fall of 1956 bear slight re- semblance to the mature, more dignified indi- viduals, who have gained the distinction of being called seniors. That first year— a year of new thrills, new adjustments. All of the spoiled child was not too gently taken out of us by our superior classmates. During our second year our footing became more secure but we still could not be greatly recognized beyond the confines of our little sphere. Soon we were Juniors, filling an important place on the campus. Gradually throughout our re- maining years we came to accept greater respon- sibilities. Now as Seniors we have reached the peak of our college experiences, our inter- ests have developed, our activities have been extended and our horizons broadened. Such is the meaning of growth. Our growth will not end upon graduation but its course in many cases is pre-destined. Those opportunities which we have had in our under-graduate years will prepare us to accept greater responsibilities in later years. Scholar- ship will always be precious to us. Our col- lege experiences have taught us to love our work and to live a valuable and full life. How more could we have groNvn? CLASS PRESIDENTS DONALD E. MATTHEWS Senior Class President REED F.

There were trials and tribulations, yet we plunged gayly through the first year. Then the dawn and we were sophomores— a little more serious, a little less confident. Decisions were to be made. We had begun to take positions of responsibility. Now as an essential part of the school, we have regained Upper: Koons. Smith. Nagler, Storm, Stevens. Kirwan, Paca. Green, Watson.

Restrictions made us a little more merciful and the freshmen a little more cocky, but our retribution came when we won the tug-of-war. (We won ' t mention the football game.) We then had to settle down to the business of rushing, a new experience for sophomores who had been carried away by the thrills of being rushed, but who had no idea of the anxiety and planning behind the scenes. We found ourselves in a position where we could help unadjusted freshmen with their problems and gladly did we give advice. Each year is bound to bring about many changes— new students, new faculty members, new facilities with which to meet our needs. Fortunate indeed, we have been to witness the erection of bv ' o new buildings on our campus, the Bunting SOPHOMORE CLASS HISTORY Library and the Dunning Science Building. We have had a definite part in the ELM conference, to which we were hosts in the spring, and our activities and interests continue to broaden. As the school year draws to a close, there comes to our minds the question: What have we given to the school? A galaxy of stars who have excelled in diverse fields. Midst peanuts and acclaim, Lloyd Davis proved himself an excellent actor in the popular production, Ten Nights in a Barroom. You Can ' t Take It With You turned out David Bartolini, a blushing matinee idol.

Pelry. Ray Kirby and Al Dudderar were our football heroes, while Ginny Hoopes and Kitty Newton were varsity hockey stars. Bill Nagler succeeded in winning the ping-pong tournament and is holding a key position on the tennis team. Music; yes, we hold some claim to fame in this field, too. We can t forget Gus with his drums or Mort with his violin, both of vhom have distinguished themselves in the orchestra. There are many other classmates vhose accomplishments are worthy ol men- tion, including Jimmy (I m from Connecticut) Dougherty ' , the discus thrower. Athletes, actors, musicians, leaders-in-the-making — we of the sophomore class take a bow!

And with the suddenness of Paul Reveres ride came our advent to the campus of our historical Alma Mater. During that first Freshman Week we were herded wilhngly and wide-eyed, hither and yon, and no doubt disturbed the haughty com- posure of many an early arriving upperclassman with the query. Are you a Fresh- man, too? Despite our goodly number of 121 (it seems we set an all time record for enrollment) we were subdued quite easily, for a time, by the almighty Sopho- Upper: Beecker, Slade.

Few of us shall ever forget that first Sunday night when the town clock tolled an ominous twelve. The girls huddled mournfully in the darkened windows of the Reid Hall third floor to hear the groans and laments of their suffering brother gues. The sight of the blindfolded, well-attended line filing past the hall enough to make many long for the comparative peace and safety of home. And then came the day when we realized that we were really a part of Washington College. We found that after all the Sophomores were Freshmen themselves just a few short months ago. As a result of this new awakening they called us cocky, arrogant, and stated in shocked voices that we had over-stepped our bounds. But our existence continued blithely on. We wandered into Gill ' s and joined heartily in that now famous laugh of Henry ' s. We discovered that Snuffy could FRESHMAN CLASS HISTORY goose-step, and that Cissel could act. We proved our worth in the Freshman- Sophomore football game and tie-up. Regardless of a few broken bones we quite enjoyed the interlude. Our existence was calm and ideal until one night came the long-awaited pajama parade and at last we were enabled to exhibit our colorful polka-dots and stripes before the admiring girls. The egg race was the Bnale and was not as gruesome as reports would have it . . . besides we like eggs anyway! The arrival of caroling and lighted trees amid the snow impressed us with the beauties of the campus at Christmas-time. There was ice on the river and many of us discovered for the first time that a pair of skates was something to look up at! It was after the holidays that we were confronted most realistically by three-hour examinations and as we spent the majority of the time discovering the vast amount we didn ' t know, we came to the surprised conclusion that studying in Bull Ses- Upper: McClellan.

The strains of High Above the Chester River floating softly over the quiet campus in the warm tvvilight evenings filled us with a new thrilling sense of pride and love, a love for our Alma Mater. As we all look back on this year, we each one of us feel that we have attained a new and deep-founded satisfaction, a satisfaction of knowing that here we have found the place wherein we can begin to fulfill our cherished ideals and plans. Here is the campus, the buildings and the atmosphere that will see us through four years of worthwhile preparation.

Johnson Vice-President J- Earnest Sliocliley Secretary Edward Cooper Faculty Adviser Professor Frank Goodwin Since the organization of a Student Government Association at Washington College more than a decade ago, jhose who believed in it and worked for its estabhshment have seen its executive body, the Washington College Student Council, vastly extend the scope of its activities. Its aims— the perpetuation of healthy college traditions, the promotion of cooperation between the students, faculty and administration, regulation of student conduct, and the fostering of personal responsibility and honor— have always guided the Council in its work. But Council activities have been sharply divided into two distinct types of work— that concerned with honor and regulation of student conduct and that con- cerned with student welfare. Council regulation of conduct is so inclusive a field as not to need expansion, but the efficiency and success of each Council is well indicated beyond that field by how far it is responsible to and serves the Student Body. This year the Council has attempted to practice what is taught in the class- rooms. Numerous steps have been taken to make the student government a more democratic procedure. One of the major objectives of the year has been an effort to eliminate graft and profits at the expense of the students and their organ- izations. Student opinion on these and other points has been crystallized and acted upon by the Council. Council regulations and administrative procedure have been in many instances brought up to date. Capla Wheatley Hollingswortl, WOMEN ' S STUDENT GOVERNMENT ASSOCIATION President Evelyn Caplan Vice-President Alice Williams Secretary-Treasurer Jean Wheatley Faculty Adviser Dean Amanda T. Bradley The Women ' s Student Government Association Kas completed another suc- cessful year in performing its duties as the official governing body of Reid Hall. During the year 1939-1940, it has maintained the rules established by previous councils, insofar as these rules have met with the needs of the group; and, in addition, it has made worthwhile innovations of its own. An effective innovation was the establishment, during the second semester, of a Procter System for the Freshmen. In order to further the desire to study, more library privileges were granted to those Freshmen attaining an index of one point. They vere also allowed more privileges of a social nature. A radio and other things for which a need was felt were acquired through the efforts of the Council. The constitution was revised, and rule books printed. In addition, the usual Christmas program and Girls Dances were sponsored. In spite of criticism, the Council has made great progress. It has done its part in promoting a better harmony in Reid Hall and on the campus as a whole. INTER-FRATERNITY COUNCIL President William Smilli Vice-President Edward L. McCabe Secretary-Treasurer William Buckingham Smith McCabe Buckinghi Sliockle O C ' f . Elliott John Spiel n In continuation of better inter-fraternity relations the Inter-Fraternity Council inaugurated its second year by making various interpretations of trie constitution and the by-Ia%vs. Due to the national merger of the Lambda Chi Alpha and the Theta Kappa Nu fraternities, the Washington chapter of the latter returned to the local Phi Sigma Phi. Later in the year this group was installed with the national Theta Chi fraternity. For the first time in the history of fraternities on the campus, representatives of the three fraternities set the date for silence period. This decision formerly rested with Dean Jones. One of the outstanding activities of the Council this year was the sponsoring of the Inter-Fraternity Ball. For this occasion the Men About Town orchestra was engaged and a successful evening was the result PANHELLENIC COUNCIL President Jean Wheatley Secretary Gerry Nash Treasurer Alice Williams Wheatley Nash Brooks Steinbo Kintner The object of the Panhellenic Council is to maintain on a high plane of sorority hfe and inter-sorority relationships, to cooperate vith college authorities in their efforts to maintain high social and scholastic standards throughout the whole college, and to be a forum for the discussion of questions of interests to the college sororit ' world. Panhellenic was organized on this campus immediately after the last of the three groups became affiliated with national organizations in 1938. This year the group published a Panhellenic Pamphlet which explained the purpose of sororities, the rushing rules, and the important information about each chapter established on the campus. Panhellenic formally opens the rushing season by sponsoring a tea. During the course of the two weeks ' formal rushing period, several open forums are held for the benefit of the freshmen. The important social function of the year is the Panhellenic Ball which is sponsored by the council every spring. SIGMA SIGMA OMICRON President RalpK Thornton Vice-President Natnan Scnnaper Secretary Dr. Frederick G. Livingood Treasurer Frances Perry The local scholastic nonor society, Sigma Sigma Omicron, was organized for the purpose of recognizing and encouraging scholarship on the Washington College campus, fn 1Q37, the name of the society ' was changed from the Honor Society to Sigma Sigma Omicron: these Greel; fetters being an abhreviation of the society s motto: Service through Schofarship for Washington Coflege. At the past honor recognition day, held an- nually in assembly shortly after the beginning of the second semester, the organization in- ducted eight members from the Junior class and one from the Senior class. The candidates elected into the society must have an aggregate index of 2.25 to be eligible. Student member- ship into the society may at no time exceed twenty. The society has, this year, adopted an initia- tion ritual which vas used at the formal initia- tion of ne v members at the organization s ban- quet in April. Ralph Thornton In keeping with the idea of fostering scholar- ship, various members of the society were as- signed compendiums of fellowships and gradu- ate scholarships, vhich are available to the stu- dent body. Formal and informal discussions have taken place as to the best means of pro- moting scholarship on the campus. Members have been assigned reports in which they were to make correlations between scholastic ability and business success. Top: Leonard, Walalkus, Hendrickson. PhiMipi Botlom: Johnson.

Zaffei MOUNT VERNON LITERARY SOCIETY Robert Mo President Robert Moore Vice-President William Walatkus Secretary-Treasurer James Spielman Refresbment Chairman Evelyn Caplan An atmosphere of informality, and genuine aesthetic enjoyment pervades the monthly meet- ings of the Mt. Vernon Literary Society and because of this factor, the society prides itself on reahzing its greatest aim — that of fostering ' Hterary appreciation outside the classroom. Nit. Vernon claims the unique distinction of being the oldest organization on the campus, having been formed in 1847. It was formerly a field for self-expression in elocution and debate, but now a ne v and vital interest has been mani- fested in the society. Its theme is literature, both classic and contemporary. The discus- sions have ranged from Keats to Omar Khayyam and ' The S vord and the Stone. One meeting was devoted to Oscar Wilde, and Doctor Tolles presented a vivid picture of ihis creative genius. A personal touch vas added by Miss Hermione Riches when she gave at her home an interesting account of her visit to Keats home at Hampstead Heath. Another evening was turned over to book reviews given by various members of the society ' . An In- formation Please program proved such a de- cided hit, that a repeat performance was neces- sary several months later. The questions cov- ered a variety of subjects, from grand opera and Shakespeare to Gone with the Wind and the comic strips. The Mount Vernon, despite its age, is still virile, and adaptable to a new order, and feels that its purpose has been accomplished. It has helped promote a greater interest in literature and things cultural. Top; Cissel. Tbornton. Clari;. . agl, r. ,II,n, (,,„ri .in. Rm, . Middle: W ' bealley. Dunn. M. Blarksvond. Johnson. Lyons.

A. has become the prominent service organization on the hilL The activities of the Y range from the pubhcation of the Student Hand- book and the sponsoring of tennis and ping pong tournaments, to the purchase of Mother s Day flowers and the recent maintaining of an employment bureau. Freshman week activities, Christmas tree decoration, the annual banquet, and joint socials and discussions with the Y. W. C. A. are among the other things included in the year s program. At the annual Y assembly this year, senior awards for four years active service vere presented to William McAdams, Edwin Ohler, William Cronin, William Jones, William Walatkus, Milton Clock, William Medford, and Edward McCabe. Y. M. C. A. Y. W. C. A. President Ann Hollingswortl, Vice-President Muriel Mittlelwlzer Secretary-Treasurer Racnele Rogliano The Y. W. C. A. since its establishment on the Washington College campus has served a definite purpose. Its activities be- gan before the opening of the col- lege in the fall with the assign- ment of big sisters to the in- coming freshman girls. This custom originated in order to make a tie which might help the new inexperienced feminine students to find themselves, and to establish rriendly relations from the beginning with their older, more e.xperienced schoolmates. At Christmas time it has been a custom of the organization to do some kind of altruistic work, this year our project being the distribution of food and dolls among the poor families in the community. The Y. W. C. A. and the Y. M. C. A. have jointly participated in several endeavors, including Sunday evening vespers, open forums on various current topics and one social event held at the end of the year. Greater interest has been manifested and a spirit of cooperation has resulted between the two organizations. Ann Hollingswortli Top: Loovis, Strong, Fenderson, Culver. Blarkwood. Norke, Tischer.

Under his spirited direction the Girls ' Glee Club and the Mixed Chorus were re-organized and a large turnout was the result. To open the season, the Men ' s Glee Club presented a feature concert from the stage of the New Lyceum Theater. Following this the combined mixed chorus made several public appearances, including the annual Spring Concert and the commencement musical program. With very few members graduating this year, the prospects for next year are very bright. William McAda COLLEGE CONCERT ORCHESTRA Edward Mil Student Director C. Edward Miller Librarian James S.

Few have been those who have participated in the year ' s productions, but tireless have been their efforts. The curtain goes up on the club ' s first performance— Ten Nights in a Bar Room, a first class melodrama. Amid roaring laughter, fast-flying peanuts and riotous applause the Can-Can chorus presented a spec- tacular performance between acts. The club ' s first attempt at such a production deserved commendation. A lapse of time — routine activities of the organization proceeded smoothly — the second play of the year was chosen— You Can t Take It with You. With excellent advertising, a popular play, and a well-chosen cast, the second production of the year surpassed any recent performance, judging by the size of the audience and their response. The Spring season brought about the usual inter-class play tussle and the French play. The title for the inter-class competition was won by the Junior class. A new unit, Pinocchio, was devised by the club and given for the benefit of the Child Welfare Association of Kent County. The June play. The Ghost Goes West, ' winds up a very pleasant and successful season. Charlotte Sliaull Top: Cissel. Dawson. Taylor. Clock. Kiltrell. Arden. Palters,,,, Third Row: Rogliano. Nairn. Parris. Maguire.

TITSWORTH DEBATE CLUB President Agnes E. Zaffere Manager Rufus C. Jolinson Faculty Adviser VVinton Tolles Students, whether pohshed debaters or stammering speakers, are afforded an opportunity to participate in forensic activity through the Paul E. Titsworth Debate Club. Every year a series of freshman debates are held, in order for the new members to compete against debaters in their own class, thereby increasing their abihty and their confidence. The complete schedule includes approximately thirty-five inter- collegiate contests. This year ' s program afforded William Johnson and Earnest Shockley an opportunity to explore the World ' s Fair, while they were on a trip during which they successfully encoun- tered New York University, Columbia University, and Hofstra College. Jim Diacumakoes and Rufus Johnson invaded the Southland and enjoyably encountered William and Mary College, University of Richmond and Hampden-Sydney. Numerous other trips were taken, which carried various teams into Washington, Baltimore, and Salisbury. At home our teams encountered repre- sentatives of colleges and universities from ten states. This year through the cooperation of Dr. Livingood, a Speak- ers ' Bureau was formed and put into operation. The Bureau re- ceived requests from numerous churches and organizations for forensic entertainment of varying types. One of the most successful seasons of the Paul E. Titsworth Debate Club was terminated for all the active members of the society by a banquet given by the coach and faculty adviser. Dr. W inton Tolles. Top: Wharton. Sleinman. Jolinson. Aycock. Roe.

This year the society has been fortunate in having as speakers: Dr. Winton Tolles, Dr. Carleton Andrews, Miss Amanda Bradley, Dr. Gertrude Ingalls, and Professor Solandt. The musical programs have been very efficiently pre- pared by Robert Moore. Many students as well as guest artists have participated. Refreshments, planned by Evelyn Caplan, vvere served during the informal discussions following the meetings. In addition to the regular monthly meetings, the Classical Society sponsored a picnic and a banquet served in good old Roman style. Perry Top: SmitK, Hendrickson, BuckingKam, Aycock, Quillen. Cooper.

HISTORICAL SOCIETY Jolin Selby Honorary President..Dr. Esther M. Dole President John W. Selby Vice-President Jervis Cook Secretary Evelyn Caplan Treasurer Owen Anderson. Jr. Publicity Calvert Jones, Jr. The Washington College Historical Society is a branch oF the Kent County Historical Society. Its members are students who are interested in all phases of History and especially in the early history and background of Washington College and Kent Count ' . The Society has taken as its duty to Washington College research concerning the early history of the school. Rare and old documents, uncovered and preserved by the Society, have com- pleted many of the unfinished pages of the college s history. Throughout the year, the Society held many Document Teas, at which much of the work was accomplished. During these meetings, the members combed through numerous docu- ments which, donated by interested friends, pertained to the early history of the college. Many of these dated back to the eighteenth century. These documents were examined and classified and are preserved for future reference. In addition to Document Teas. the Society ' obtained guest speakers who lectured on interesting phases of current history. LE CERCLE FRANCAIS President Frances Perry Secretary Peggy Spry Vice-Presiclent Rotert Moore Treasurer Minor Steel Sergeant-at-Arms James Busli Since its organization in 1935 on the Washington College campus, Le Cercle Fran ais has become increasingly important, this year reaching its present state of forty active members. Under the guidance of Dr. Laurance Ford, great strides have been made in the society in the promotion of the study of French life and culture. The meetings of the Cercle have been conducted in French with all the members participating in order to bring about a better understanding of the spoken language. Their aims have been further promoted by means of French songs, operas, lectures, and oral quizzes, which are a part of the monthly meetings. As a major project the club presents a French play during the second semester in conjunction with the Dramatic Club. This play is cast and directed by members of the society. Much pleas- ure, a small financial gain, and an increased command of the French language are the by-products of such an undertaking. Frances Perry Top: Oilier, Da%vson. Dr. Ford. Bartolini. Copple.

Nelson Treasurer William Nagler Sergeant-at-Arms Edmond Lovesky The Chemistry-Physics Society, composed of Chemistry and Physics students interested in fostering science on an intellectual level, was organized in 1938 to supplant the inactive Chemistry Society. To broaden its scope of science, the organization voted at a recent meeting to extend its membership to Biology students, and to change its name to the Society of Sciences. During the year, the society presented a number of guest speakers, who are authorities in their respective nelds and who addressed the organization at its monthly meetings. In addition to this, motion pictures, demonstrations, and other interesting pro- grams were arranged. At the annual commencement this year, the Society will present an award to the member of the graduating class who has obtained the highest honors in Chemistry while in college. Begin- ning with next year, this award will be made to include all of the sciences. Top: Livingston. McNiff, BarU.lini, N.ul.rrl. luiu.s. Cmnu Third Roi - ( n T Parlor MaOt.ir,.

Moving from a monthly publication through several form changes, the Washington Elm ' entered into this, its fortieth year of existence. In June iSgg, a monthly magazine form served as the beginning of the present Elm. ' It was not until 1Q25 that it was changed to a bi- weekly with a newspaper format. It was called the Washington Collegian. Five years later, the name Washington Elm was given to the publication by the student body, and in Sep- temper 1934 it assumed its present form and frequency. Since then changes have occurred mainly in policy and physical make-up. Streamlining has recently changed the ap- pearance of the front page to make for a more attractive layout. Returning to its form of several years ago, the mast head and editorials are no v run in double columns. In order to coordinate the ten associate edi- tors, the Managing Editor was appointed and has served very well his intended purpose. Persons skilled in the various departmental fields were selected to handle all news emanat- ing from these nelds. Featured in the Elm this year have been guest editorials by prominent persons in the fields of journalism, education, and politics. Campus polls have also created interest among the student body and furnished data indicative of trends at this college. The so-called dirt column was abolished because it was con- sidered to be ill-suited to a collegiate publica- tion. In this latter step, the Elm has fol- lowed the general trend prevalent in collegiate journalism. Elm readers will have noticed the presence of more pictures accompanying news articles. This service was made available through the cooperation of the Chestertown ' Transcript. The year 1939-40 can be modestly termed as a very successful year for the Elm as evi- denced by its progressive steps. For the first time in the history of the paper, the Elm ' received first class honor rating from Associated Collegiate Press. The Washington College Editors ' Confer- ence held in April at W ashington College and sponsored by the Elm ' was a decided suc- cess. It is expected that the conference will become an annual event with the staff of Western Maryland s Gold Bug being the hosts next year.

But under the capable guidance of Coach Ekaitis, several potential freshmen, Schuerholz, Benjamin, Robinson, Miles, and Jackson were turned into varsity material. There still remained the veterans, Neubert, Hoppe, J. CoHins, W. Collins, Fetter, Kirby, Dudderar, Pinto, Storm, Watson, Bartolini, and Dougherty to give us a good team. Considering the stiff opposition, the season can be determined a successful one, even though we won only 5 games out of 7. Playing strong teams like Mt. St. Mary, Delaware, and Dickinson, we were able to score 63 points to our opponents 73. During the latter part of the season, the team was greatly v ' eakened by having Dougherty ' , Bartolini, Robinson, and Schuerholz injured. Seasons high spots: The Swarthmore game was a heart-breaker to lose since the Maroons were aggressive during the entire game, and had the ball within 10 yards of the goal line three times in the last quarter. In the Hopkins game, the Shoremen displayed their real power, offensively and defensively, especially in the former by hard line smashes. At Juniata, the Maroons again won from the favored and heavier Juniata team, mostly by the aerial route. Six players will be lost by graduation: Howard Yank Neubert, end, vho has played four years of varsity football, making the All-Maryland second team last year and first team this year; Chuck Collins, guard, who has been old- Reliable for four years and whose loss will certainly be felt; Bill Collins, end, who has served three years on the varsity; Bill Smith, end, who has played two years varsity; Harry Hoppe, a hard-driving back, who has proved to be real varsity in his last two years; John Stack, guard, a two-year varsity man.

The Maroons von fourteen games out of a schedule of twenty-five, and meeting some of the nest teams in the East, such as Villanova, La Salle, Baltimore U., Loyola and Duke. Some of the highlights of the season were: The Duke game, which all thought would be one-sided, turned into a very exciting match when the Maroons scored 15 points in the second half without the opponents scoring any. With only three minutes to go, a difference of three points, the Blue Devils froze the hall and the Maroons tried in vain to recover. The Baltimore U. game at home with the Shoremen entering the fray as underdogs and the op- ponents having the hottest team in the his- tory of the institution. The home team turned out its best performance of the season and actually did the unbelievable to beat this great team. Coach Kibler retired after twenty-five years of capable service and was replaced by Dutch ' Dumschott, who did a fine job of directing the team. Memories of the graduating stars will live long after they are gone. Neubert, with his peculiar two-handed over-head shot, which never failed, was second high scorer in the state and was picked on the All-Maryland ' team. Holler Guy ' Kardash. the peppiest man on the squad, was picked on the Ail- Maryland second team, Chuck Collins and his sensational shots which pulled many a game out of the fire. We still have with us: McNiff, the smoothest man on the squad. Fetter, the scrappiest player, Schuerholz and Stevens, the two fastest men on the team, and the former received honorable mention for the All-Maryland team. Top: Coacli Kibler. Claggett. Galvin.

It should be able to successfully defend its Maryland Intercollegiate Conference crown which has been held for the last five years. The Kiblermen lost two valuable players by graduation in Howard Pfund, catcher, and Grit Urie, outfielder. Among those lettermen returning are Lefty Copple, Long John Selby and Harold Rayne, making up a pitching staff well worth bragging about. Other lettermen returning are Joe Bremer, Jimmy Stevens, Bobby Everett, Mike Kardash, and Charlie Fetter. Joe Bremer will take a new place on the team when he dons a catcher ' s mask once again. Joe has had much experience at this new position through three years of high school. This change should help balance and strengthen the team. With such material available this new edition of the Shoremen should be able to repeat, if not better, the fine record of only two defeats suffered last year. Defeat of our rival. University of Maryland, is the ultimate aim of the Kiblermen. -W Copple Top: Coack Ekaites, SoKI. Taylor, Pinto, Storm, Warther, Corley, Carter, VanDeman, Nelson. Middle: Harris, Miles.

With no sure-fire bets in the line-up as in the past campaigns, success this year will depend largely on the consistency of the entire team to snare points through the weaknesses of their opponents. It appears that the chief weaknesses of the Ekaitis- men are found in the field events and the hurdles. The outstanding members of the cinder path are: Veterans, Ed Buck, who will be the mainstay in the 220 and 440, Mac McCalley in the mile. Bill Ford in the two mile, Sam Ford in the hurdles and distances, and Bill Buckingham in the 880. Promising Freshmen, Jackson in the too, 220 and broad jump, and I K,, Steele in the 440 and 220.

Last year ' s squad proved the most successful in the team s history, and with the re-appearance of such racquet-wielders as Bill Nagler, Ed Davis, Bill Johnson, and Ernie Shockley, Washington College should establish itself as one of the leaders in tennis competition. The turnout of an ambitious group of newcomers and the return of Bill Smith and Tommy Eliason should fill the vacancies made by the graduation of Zebrowski and Kaufman. This year ' s team is under the capable direction of Dr. Winton Tolles. Prof is experienced on the courts and his knowledge should help to improve the team s record. Under his tutelage, the team should be even more successful than last year s. Having a ten-game schedule, the results of the team s encounters should go a long way toward placing tennis among the recognized varsity sports of Washington College. Top: Blackwood.

BOARD OF MANAGERS President Ann I lollingswortli Vice-President Margaret Gardner Secretary-Treasurer Priscilla Brown The Board of Managers, selected from tlie Women s Athletic Association, chooses ail class teams, schedules games, and names the Honorary Varsity teams at the end of each season. Each year, the Board makes an award to each senior girl who has participated in two major sports for four years, who has been a member of the Honorary Varsity in at least one sport, and who has received her maroon W, obtained by the accumulation of one thousand points in one year. The points are earned not only by participation but by training, hiking, roller skating and any other activity the Director may choose to recognize. The Board, composed of representatives of each class, is a non-partisan organ- ization, existing solely to delegate the control of girls ' athletics in the college to the students who participate. Its t vo greatest aims are the recognition of superior ability displayed by teams and individuals, and the maintenance of enthusiasm and interest in girls ' sports on the campus. Upper: Zaffere.

HONORARY VARSITY HOCKEY The hockey seasons prove to be more successful each year, for the competition is steadily increasing. The Seniors, with their experience, managed to secure the pennant this year with little difficulty. However, the general technique and co- ordination of the teams, particularly of the underclassmen, have improved notice- ably all of which makes hockey continue to be the favorite sport. SCORES Seniors Seniors Seniors FresKmen Juniors ... Soph Sophomores Freshmen ... Juniors Juniors Soph, Fresh, Every year an Honorary Hockey Varsity is selected from the class teams by the Board of Managers. This year the positions of the players, with ability and performance, were taken into consideration. The following team was selected: Center Forward Shirley de Guzman Left Wing Ann HoMingsworth Center Halfback Margaret Gardner Right Halfback Frances Perry Goal Keeper Margaret Spry Left Fullback Louisa Hall Right Fullback Minnie Somers Left Halfback Katherine Todd Right Wing Virginia Hoopes Right Inner Katharine McCardell Left Inner Catherine Newton Honorable mention was awarded to: Evelyn White Priscilla Brown Agnes Zaffere Rachel Rogliano 116 upper: Brown.

HONORARY VARSITY BASKETBALL This year, for the first time, six good teams battled for the championship instead of the usual inter-class four. Both the Freshmen and Sophomores had two teams on the floor. Out of this, the Seniors, with its superior knowledge of baslcetball technique, emerged as victors, having lost only one game. So it was not surprising to find that three forwards and one guard were chosen from the Senior team as members of the honorary varsity. The Junior team pulled the surprise of the year when they suddenly adopted offensive tactics and proved themselves worthy opponents to every team they met. From the two teams of the Sophomore class, Catherine Newton and Virginia Hoopes, guards, easily made the honorary varsity by superior floor play. Honorable mention was given to Betty Dockhorn, Priscilla Brown, guards, and to Betty Beck, and Peggy Pitt, forwards. 117 CLASS BASKETBALL Basketball season this year was undoubtedly tbe most successful one in years. More girls turned out, the Freshmen and Sophomores had two teams, more competition was offered, and more games played than in the history of the college. The Seniors won the title by winning the last game of the season. Class League Fi Seniors ■ ; First Soplioniore B _. .■. Second Freshmen .B..-.. :.:..-.. .

The points are obtained not only by par- ticipation in the major sports, but by training, hiking, exercises, and any other activities that the athletic director may choose to recognize. A silver cup is avs ' arded to the girl who ac- cumulates the greatest number of points. Gardn White Dull For the past few years the Athletic Depart- ment has attempted to include more sports and to increase the interest in the various sports on the campus. Last year archery and tennis with hockey and basketball were stressed as the major sports. In place of the annual June Fete, this year the department has introduced badminton and ping pong as major sports. RECOGNIZED GIRLS ' SPORTS Thus far, interest has been marked and com- petition keen. Included in the minor sports are roller skat- ing, fencing, bicycling, hiking, and horseback riding. Hoopes. Gardner, Pitt, White, Dockhorn, Newton. 119 OUTSTANDING IN GIRLS ' SPORTS MARGARET GARDNER This spring the Board of Managers adopted a new honor to be conferred on a Senior woman. It was decided that the most outstanding woman athlete in the Senior class be given recognition. From the Class of ' 40 the Board selected Margaret Gardner as the best all-around athlete. Margaret has participated in every sport on the campus, making the Hockey Varsity in her Junior and Senior years. She secured a berth on the Basketball Varsity this year as a forward. In archery, she remains the unbeaten champion, and she has accumulated more points for her Maroon W than has any woman on the campus. For the past two years Margaret has served on the Board of Managers and in her Senior year was elected vice-president.

Phone, Vernon 8310 MARYLAND PRODUCT FAMOUS THE WORLD OVER From India to Australia — from China to the British Isles — as well as all over the United States and Canada, millions of jars of Noxzema Medicated Skin Cream are used each year. Back in 1917, Dr. G. A. Bunting, Washington College ' 91, perfected the formula for this unique cream. Well received in Maryland, it soon found its way to the far corners of the world. Thousands everywhere have found it a veritable Wonder Cream for soothing relief from Sunburn, Chafing, Chapped Skin, etc. Scores of men use it as a base for lather or as a latherless Shaving Cream — women as a Night Cream and greaseless Powder Base.
