This, the eighty-first volume, has taken a depar- ture from recent year books by presenting articles rather than lists and subjects that have been long neglected. The form is not important - it is the spirit of Wesleyan which such a book preserves that tests its true worth. To Cervantes is credited the lines, Wllhe dish that smokes yonder seems to be an Olla Podrida, and from the variety of ingredients of which these Ollas are composed surely l cannot fail to light on something which will be both savory and wholesome. lf that something is found which shall bring back a college memory, the 1939 OLLA PODRIDA will have achieved its purpose. ag N 1 is CONTENTS VIEWS.

DMINISTR TIG Wesleyan has always prided itself as a place where the natural gulf between student and faculty is practically non-exis- tant. It is a rare professor who will not respond to an undergraduate greeting, and, more than that, it is a rare student who does not count as personal friends one or .nore members of the faculty. Contact comes in many ways--on the tennis, squash, or handball courts, in vari- ous curricula clubs, fraternities, professors' homes at tea or meal time, at the Honors College. Many of the instructors make it a point to hold open house several times av year. The late beloved William Hewitt had a standing invitation out to every stu- dent and kept the door open to all. Many fraternities hold annual faculty parties, and all have professors and their wives as frequent guests. . . .. . . nga -..-..-.-.-.-.,V,-gg. to 1-tea'-4.:a.z' -' ' ...14.....-1 -, - ,::f.'-.. .- '-.-..-L.-1-1 .,. ,.,. Mm... . During the past four years, ever since he took over the office of Dean, LEROY ALBERT HOWLAND has probably listened to more far-fetched excuses for over-cut classes than any other person on campus. Few varieties of the local type of alibi get by Dr. Howland, however, because Wesle- yan and all its undergraduate tricks are old and familiar stories to him, inasmuch as he is one of the few men on the faculty who regard this college as their Alma Ma- ter. Graduating from here at the turn of the century, the Dean was a Psi U., Sigma Xi and 'LPhi Beten man. Continuing his studies, he went on to Harvard where he received his M. A. in 19044. The following year he was appointed an Instructor in Mathematics at Wesleyan, but in his vaca- tion periods, Germany was his next place of call, the result being that in 1908 he was awarded a Ph.D. from the famed University of Munich. He was immediate- ly promoted to an Associate-Professorship here. Selected as Vice-President of Wesle- yan in 1921, he ultimately became acting President, a position which he held for two years before Dr. McConaughy's arrival, --,,',. ,:.,','..'4...' 1-s..-g-rm: ffm 1-.-1-.,'.4,:..:.g,.-.t.-,V -A-'A' U61 When JAMES LUKENS MCCONAUGHY, then a comparative youngster who was rapidly making a name for himself in the field of education, left the presidency of Knox College, Illinois, in 1925 to accept a similar post at Wesleyan, he started the latter institution on one of its most pros- perous periods. Last year, Prexy, always an active Republican, enjoyed the unique distinction of being elected Connecticut's Lieutenant-Governor and remaining as ac- tive head at this school. But politics and college administration are only two fields in which Dr. Mcflonaughy has been out- standing. He has long been recognized as one of the most prominent authorities on marriage problems and a number of his articles have appeared in national maga- zines as well as in book form. ln view of the imposing array of all his other achieve- ments, it is easy to overlook the fact that he was President of the all-powerful American Association of Colleges in 1938. Today, Dr. McConaughy has enough degree-letters after his name to make alphabet soup. Prexy started his degree collecting as a Phi Beta Kappa member of the class of 1909 at Yale, where he was a Beta. 1' S!-' 351553- - KHEO-3-' .iQs5i55f!I!f!15i!2.'.'. -.ma-.3 H i: t 25.g:gEr5l32:g1,-r,,V115:,1qx5:5:5:gurg:gg5rv,xg45,.,--, gg 4,5,,yg5,- 5,-,,,,.',,:.,v,,, ,,,,,,,,, A 1 l M D , 1 , Coming to Wesleyan in 1909, Doc- tor EDGAR FAUVER became Director of Athletics and College Physician. An all-around athlete at Oberlin, Doc still talks the best game of tennis in college. Now retired from depart- mental duties he rules the new infir- mary. VICTOR LLOYD BUTTERFIELD, Di- rector of Admissions and Dean of Freshmen, has been at this college since 1935. A graduate of Cornell and Harvard, he has distinguished himself among the faculty by per- sonally designing and building his own home. CHARLES HENDERSON, Comptroller of Wesleyan since 1934, spent his undergraduate days in a paper mill, then graduated into railroadsgand received his higher degrees in a manufacturing firm of which he be- came President before coming here. ROSWELL DAVIS, a graduate of M. 1. T., was employed as a draftsman and engineer until he became Super- intendent of Grounds and Buildings at Princeton. He came here to aid with the building program and since 1929 has been Assistant Treasurer. Secretary of the Wesleyan Alumni Council since 1924 is HERBERT LEE CONNELLY. A Wesleyan graduate of 1909 and an Eclectic, he has taught school, fought in a war, served as an interpreter, and sold advertising. A twelve letterman, WALTER HEN- RY HEIDEMAN graduated from Law- rence College in 1927 and spent the next seven years at Wesleyan as Coach in the Physical Education de- partment. At the present time he is the Manager of the Downey House. l V V l 71 ART H HCOCK Wesleyan can NRY-RUSSELL ITC Q bozltrdt lair? outstanding Assistant Professor. Of who actually has the appearance of being juSl what he is-an artist. His unique half-beard has been one of the most distinctive features arolung th s since its first arrival. here in the a ofelgglgplflk graduate of Harvard 1n 1924, he taught a ear at Vassar. At the present time he serves as Y . visiting lecturer at Wesleyan's sister college 111 New London.. GUSTAVE VON GROSCHWITZ received his B. A. from Columbia University following which he filled the position of head of the print department at the Ferargil Galleries in New York. Later he had charge of the graphic arts division of the Federal Arts Project in New York City where he remained until coming to Wesleyan last fall in the capacity of Curator of a large print collection given the college. With several of his articles on prints having been published already, Mr. von Groschwitz is planning to write a book in which he will discuss the many new and little known artists. TROOY Probably no one in the country knows more about stellar parallaxes than Professor FREDERICK SLOCUM..Tl1CY,'W1tl1 the volume he has recently had published, are his pride and joy. An alumnus 35 Brown, he received his Ph. D. in 1898 and at thesleyanran M. A. fad eundemj in 1914. With e f3XCePl51011 .Of one year he has seen continuous service here since that time.

He was graduated from Vlfesleyan in 1913, and in 1923 he received his Ph. D. from Yale. From 1918 until 1920 Mr. Stearns was an Instructor in Mathematics and Astronomy, but concentrated his time in 1925 purely upon research work in the stellar field. He was compensated for his hours of study in Van Vleck Observatory by discovering a comet which now bears his name. Mr. Stearns has made numerous valuable observations and calculations in connection with the department's work on stellar parallaxes. BIOLOGY EDWARD CHRISTIAN SCHNEIDER is one of the best- loved and most respected members of the faculty. Besides being one of the foremost physiologists of our country, he lends his personality and aid most whole-heartedly to those who work with him. He is Daniel Ayres Professor of Biology, coming to Wesleyan from the University of Colorado in 1919. Since then he has received numerous degrees and distinctions. To mention the Biology depart- ment is to mention Dr. Schneider. One of the most easily recognizable campus celebrities 1S HU BERT BAKER GOODRICH, prominent member of the Biology depart- ment. Malicious rumour says his unique crushed felt hat has been with him since his Amherst student days. After graduation in 1914, Dr. Goodrich obtained his Ph. D. from Columbia and immediately came to Wesleyan. Since that time, his work here and at the famed Woods Hole Biological Station, and his embryonical research has gained him wide recognition. In him the Wesleyan Outing Club has found one of its staunchest supporters. Few if any of Meriden's rock cliffs have not been scaled by this man who finds such enjoy- ment in the out of doors. With a burst of speed and his HPhi-Betev key swinging defiantly, GEORGE WILLIAM HUNTER, 111 enters the laboratory every Friday at one-thirty sharp. After scanning his motley gang of future anato- mists, he promptly and mercilessly assigns Ulaba' work for the com- ing week. Following this, individual conferences are listed and Dr. Hunter leaves the room shouting his old war-cry HTie it up fellows, tie it up! Aside from teaching, Doon has been greatly in- terested in parasites. Since coming to Wesleyan in 1929, he has been conducting an exhaustive research into the Hreaction of the host to the penetration of various parasitic worms . U91 Although he has only been at Wesleyan for two years, DH. R055 AIKEN GORTNER is already well known lor his strict attendance at lasses, never missing one. He was graduated from the eight olclock c l I 1 i . ' u University of Minnesota in 19.53 and received his M. S. from the same institution the following year. He received his Ph. D. in 1937 from the University of Michigan and that Fall came to Wesleyan as Instructor in Bio-Chemistry. Last December he married Miss Priscilla Cahill, a department secretary, and now has the distinc. tion of being a principal in the first wedding ever to take place in Downey House. C J iiif CHARLES RUGLAS Hoovara, the man who once 3 yiy gave his students a double hour-written and fol- lowed it with ice-cream for all, is the E. B. Nye 1--- y Professor of Chemistry and has been teaching at ,A,, fy. I A Wesleyan 'since 1915. The genial doc's famous I. 9 liquid air demonstration is an annual feature of ' . ' I ,f the freshman Chem classes. A graduate of Penn . gy if f College, Haverford, and Harvard, Professor Hoover I 4 ' y y . ' is at present a member of the State Board of 1 . ya ' ' QQ ' Chemistry. ' . GEORGE ALBERT HILL, a graduate of Worcester Polytechnic ln- stitute in 1913, earned both his M. A. and Ph.D. at Harvard Uni- versity. He became an Associate Professor of Chemistry at Wesleyan ln 1919, and in 1924 he was promoted to a full Professorship and awarded- his M. A. fad eundeml. He is known all over campus for his immaculate dress, and his ever-present walking cane and moustache are Wesleyan traditions. For many years Faculty Mar- Sball, it was he Who led the gown bedecked processions at Convo- cations, Matriculation, Commencement, and other solemn occasions. His special interest is in the field of Organic Chemistry. h MORTIMQR GILPJERT BURFORD, II, is one of our own alumni, Paylng received his degree in 1932.

S. degree. As an undergraduate he was a member of Alpha Chi Sigma. During 1936- 37 he was an Instructor in Chemistry at his Alma Mater, but left in '37 to work on his doctor's thesis, which he presented at Cornell in '38 and was awarded his Ph.D. In connection with his work in the Chemistry department, Dr. Clarke is planning to do some research work on the organic chemistry of nitrogen, during the coming summer, between rounds of golf that he shoots in the lows 8O's. CLASSICS - R Head of the Classics department is JOHN WIL- LIAM SPAETH, JR., who had been teaching at Brown University until 1930, when he came to Wesleyan. He received his B. A. from Haverford, his M. A. from Harvard and his Ph. D. from Princeton. At , the present time he is secretary-treasurer of the Classical Association of New England and an asso- ciate editor of the Classical Journal. In the summer- time he spends his Weekends climbing New England mountains. ADOLPH FREDERICK PAULI, a graduate of the University of Illinois, has been Assistant Professor of Classics at Wesleyan since 1929. He and his wife have made a hobby of photographing early Connecticut churches from the architectural viewpoint, and intend to prepare a book on the subject for future publication. Active in Boy Scout work, Mr. Pauli also holds the position of Secretary on the Board of Trustees of the Russell Library. Besides being biblio- graphical advisor in the Olin Library, he is doing research work on Roman pottery stamps. To fill the place left in the Classics department by the death of Professor William Hewitt, JAMES A. NOTOPOULOS, a regular mem- ber of the Trinity faculty, has been commuting to Wesleyan three times a week for the past two semesters. He received the B. A. degree from Amherst in 1928, and then studied for two years at Oxford University, where he received the degree of 1VI. A. From 1932 to 1936 he was engaged in the motion picture industry, but since then has been an Instructor in Classics at Wesleyan's friendly rival college in Hartford. I21I ECO OMIC Many a sophomore has passed through the ele- mentary ulilco 1-2 classes of KQSSUTH MAYBE WVILLIAMSON, Professor in Economics and 500131 Sciences, angl, although very few, of them .still reg member what a cDemand Curve 1S, certain Y HQ a single student will ever forget Dr. W1ll132I3SOH s famous 6cbe-sure-that-you-tie-every-factdown ad- monitions. A graduate of the University of Ala- I bama and of Harvard, he came to Wesleyan in 1920 and now serves as Chairman of the Economics y H Department. 1 CLYDE OLIN FISHER, Professor of Economics and Social Sci- ences, first came here in 1920 as Associate Professor. He received his B. A. from Duke University in 1911, his M. A. from Cornell in 1919, and his Ph.D. from the same institution three- years later. lmmediately after graduation from college he filled the dual position of headmaster and teacher in a high school. His work on the Con- necticut Board of Mediation and Arbitration has gained for him a prominent place in economic circles. Hlntellectual myopia and uinnocuous desuetuden have become Wesleyan common property, released by this master of the well-formed phrase. NORMAN JOSEPH WARE, Associate Professor in the department of Economics and Social Science, is renowned for his ability to mix just the right amount of nonsensity into his classroom discussions. In the field of scholarship, Dr. Ware has been a constant con- tr1butor'to some of the outstanding publications in the World of Economics. During the first semester of the past year he was on leave of absence 1n order to allow him to continue his services as a specialist for the Social Security Board. Dr. Ware received his B. A. in Canada at McMaster University and has been awarded other degrees from the University of Chicago.

His Tuesday and Ca . nar ranks with the best college courses, and his energy Pafllty for work is the envy of his students. i221 EDWARD ALBERT RADICE, a native of England, came to Wesleyan after service at the London School of Economics. Aside from his duties here as Assistant Professor of Economics, he takes a keen interest in politics. He graduated from Oxford in 1929 with a B. A. and was awarded his- M. A. in 1937. While there, Mr. Radice carried off innumerable honors and distinctions. His special inter- est at Wesleyan lies mainly in Statistics and Mathematics in connec- tion with Economics. He also participates in the guidance of the Economics majors who are candidates for the Degree with Distinction. CLARENCE DICKINSON LONG, JR., was graduated from Washing- ton and Jefferson College in 1932, and in 1938 received his Ph.D. from Princeton. In 1936 he became Instructor in Economics and Social Science at Wesleyan. Mr. Long has had wide practical ex- perience as a business man, and his ability to explain economic matters in terms of concrete ideas adds attraction and understanding to his lectures. He possesses a keen sense of humor, and his laugh is well known from one end of the campus to the other as is his atten- dance at house parties, which he and his wife frequently chaperon. E GLIH After graduating from Amherst in 1912, FRED B. MILLETT lectured in the English department at Queen's College. Since then he has taught at the Carnegie Institute of Technology, and at the Uni- versity of Chicago where he received his Ph. D. in 1932. In 1938 Mr. 1VIillett came to Wesleyan as Visiting Professor, and now is head of the English department. Besides his hobby of writing books on drama, he spends frequent weekends in New York attending the current stage productions. FRANK EDGAR FARLEY, PH.D., Olin Professor of English Litera- ture, Emeritus, was graduated from Harvard University in 1893, receiving his M. A. there in 18911, and his Ph.D. in 1897. He became Instructor in English at Syracuse University in 1898, Associate Pro- fessor the following year and Professor in 1901. He was Associate Professor of English at Simmons College, 1903-1906, and Professor from 1906-18. In that year he became Professor of English Litera- ture at Wesleyan, which position he has held until the present time. I-Ie is the author of several books on English literature and grammar. 1231 One ofthe misfortunes, from the point of view of the freshman who likes to bluff his way through a course, is to be placed in an English 1 section under CARY HERBERT CONLEY. After graduating from the University of Michigan, where he was a Slgma Chi, Pro- fessor Conley received his M. A. at -the University of Chicago, then came to Wesleyan in 1913. Distinguished by being the only member of the Wesleyan faculty to drive a Packard, he 1S also one of the chosen few whose text books are used by Wesleyan undergraduates. HOMER EDWARDS WOODBRIDGE received his B. A. from Williams in 1902 and an M. A. and Ph.D. from Harvard. As a summer school instructor he bows to none, having taught in Colorado, North- western, Michigan, Indiana, Maine, New Hampshire, and Harvard. This summer he goes to Oregon. For eighteen years he has served Wesleyan's English department. A staunch supporter of the Scrawl- ers Club, an over-worked reviewer of Paint and Powder Club pro- ductions, and owner of a study overflowing with books, papers, and tobacco smoke, he is best known among students for his Shakespeare course. WILBERT SNOW, a 1907 graduate of Bowdoin, has been teaching English here for seventeen years. He has three M. A. degrees, but it is his informal class method, his bull sessions at the Downey House, and his ability at story telling which make him one of the most popular professors. A New England poet of renown, he has pub- lished Marne Coast, The Inner H arbor, Down East, Selected Poems and Before the Wind. Besides teaching, writing, and dabbling in local politics, Professor Snow has five sons, a green touring sedan and a glawackus to look after. thi150LAND MITCHELL-SMITIfI has been teaching at Wesleyan for 1950ee1EYeQ1'S-.HG received h1s B.

A. and M. A. at the University of Minnesota, and received his Ph.D. in 1930 from Yale. His main interest lies in the development of the American Novel, and he has been active in the Modern Language Association of America. A popular lecturer at various clubs and churches in Mid- dletown, he has the reputation of being an excellent billiards player and maker of ingenious puns. On campus, he maintains an almost Sherlock Holmes appearance with the ever-present slouch hat, brief- case, and pipe. One professor whose word on Milton is taken by most students without argument is THEODORE HOWARD BANKS of the English De- partment. Another of his accomplishments which is very seldom disputed is his prowess on the tennis courts. In his earlier days Dr. Banks took part in many an outstanding net conflict, and the memory of that famed Tilden-Banks match of a few years back has never been allowed to dim. Professor Banks received both his B. A. and Ph. D. at Yale and during his last semester's leave of absence did research for his forthcoming tome on Milton. JOSEPH MORGAN STOKES graduated from the Presbyterian Col- lege of South Carolina in 1925. He carried on his studies at Yale where he received his M. A., and then, as a Rhodes Scholar, received the degree of B. A. fOxonj and of B. Litt. In 1935 he was given his Ph.D. by Yale, and was appointed an Instructor in Eng- lish at Wesleyan. Known to most of the older undergraduates as '4.Ioe,'7 he is personally acquainted with a large portion of the student body. His views on aAmerican English are fodder for endless de- -bates at the Downey House grill or at his Wednesday evening open house. RALPH DARLINGTON PENDLETON graduated from Wesleyan in 1931 where he was a member of Sigma Chi. In 1935 he came back as Instructor in English and Director of Dramatics. With his arrival, the Paint and Powder Club took on new life and since then has turned out numerous commendable performances. Although :Tran- sient Breath was his first attempt as a playwright, it was very well received on the Wesleyan campus and was later produced in New York by the HP. and P . Almost any freshman will testify to Balph's sense of humor, exemplified by his Witty, but pertinent, comments on themes. i251 ETHICS - RELIGION It is a rare undergraduate who has not er1jOYCd the Thursday afternoon teas or Sunday dinners at which WILLIAM GEORGE CHANTER is host. A-Wes ey- an alumnus of 1914, member of Eclectic, Pro- fessor of Ethics and Pastor of the College Church- Dr. Chanter came here to teach in 1919, and seryed as Dean from 1930-35. His Bachelor of Theological Science degree came from lioston University, his M. A. from Harvard and a D. D. from Lawrence At Wesleyan, DELTON LEWIS SCUDDER is known for his keen in- terest in the Christian Association and the religious side of college life. A leader in the spaghetti and meat-ball sessions of the fresh- man cabinet, a sponsor of all types of deputations, an enthusiast for religious and vocational guidance groups, he has been instru- mental in making the C.A. an active campus organization. A 1927 graduate of Wesleyan and a member of Sigma Chi, he returned to his Alma Mater in 1932 as Instructor in Ethics. Besides serving as Associate Pastor of the College Church, he is working for his M. A. at Yale. GEOLOGY I OE WEBB PEoPLEs, a 1928 alumnus of Vander- bilt, served at Lehigh and as geologist and strip- ping engineer for an anthracite coal company until he came to Wesleyan in 1935 as Assistant Professor and head of the Geology department. Last year he was made Associate Professor. Summers have found him on field trips in the western states from which he returns to lead his classes into the Wilds of Peabody Museum and realms of fossil fish. the 2232 KEPPEL graduated from'Columb1a In 1932, and Joined ing his MWA ipinftglgllt as a Teaching Fellow in 1937 after receiv- be found 'On -thn Omg some field work.

Taft Professor of German. JOHN CHARLES BLANKENAGEL, Professor of German, has been away this past year travelling in the wilds of Germany, in an effort to find out just what the situation is and report it to his interested colleagues back here in the States. When at home his pleasures are divided between his conversational German course and the Wesleyan Deutsche Verein. Professor Blankenagel received his early educa- tion at Wisconsin, where he earned a B. A. in 1908 and a Ph.D. in 1915. A member of the Wesleyan community since 1934, he was honored by the college in 1936 with an M. A. fad eundemj. LAWRENCE EDWIN GEMEINHARDT, graduated from Brown in 1929 and came to Wesleyan two years later. Since that time he has been an Instructor in German. His elementary classes are always amazed to find fto their sorrowj that his hour writtens are taken verbatim from the review sheets he hands out a week or so before the exam, yet, let it be hastily added, this is far from meaning honor grades for alll A hamburger with the German Club at Curtsas cabin is one of his joys while his pet abomination is a student unprepared for class. VERN WADE ROBINSON, the newest addition to the German De- partment, stepped readily into the position of Chief Cook and Bottlewasher of the Deutsche Verein. He knows how to make coffee almost as well as he knows the words to the German Lieder which are sung at meetings, and attends and enjoys all the Ausflugen. Mr. Robinson prepared at two Mid-West schools. He received his B. A. at De Pauw University in 1929 and then continued activities at the University of Illinois, where he received an M. A. in 1931 and a Ph.D. in 1937. He became an lnstructor in German at Wesleyan in 1936.

Previously he had spent two years on the faculty of N. Y. U. At Bowdoin, where he obtained his B. A. degree in 1921, Mr. Thomson played end on the football team and ran the hurdles in the spring. After spending an additional year at Cornell he went to England as a Rhodes Scholar, doing advanced work at Oxford. His Ph.D. came in 1932 from Cornell University. At Wesleyan he is frequently to be found on the handball court or engaged in a political discussion. SAMUEL HUGH BROCKUNIER first came to this hill in 1930 as Instructor in History and Government. At that time he was serving in the capacity of Assistant at Harvard, from which university he had received his B. A. in 1926, his M. A. in 1928, and was working on his Ph.D., which he received in 1936. At Wesleyan he spends much of his spare time playing squash in the winter and tennis in the warmer seasons. Whenever he finds the opportunity he pursues his favorite sport, mountain climbing. His class sections are centers of lively discussion aroused by the liberal ideas he advances to his group. WILLARD MOSHER WALLACE, Teaching Fellow in the department of Economics and Social Sciences, graduated from Wesleyan, where he was a member of Phi Nu Theta, with an A. B. in 1934. The next year he worked for his M. A. while acting as Assistant to the Dean of Freshmen. At the present time he is working for his Ph.D., the subject of his thesis concerning the career of Edwin Sandyn, parliamentarian. Before joining the Wesleyan faculty, lVlr. Wfallace was a graduate assistant at the University of Pennsylvania. For recreation he plays handball and also does a little fiction writing. MATHEMATICS BURTON HOWARD CAMP, a graduate of Wesleyan and a member of Phi Nu Theta, received his B. A. in 1901. Six years later he became a Harvard M. A. and received his Ph.D. degree from Yale in 1911. Starting at Wesleyan in 1905 he became a full professor in 1914. An authority in the field of statistics, he served last year as Vice-President of the American Statistical Association and President of the Institute of Mathematics and Statistics. 1291 I Q In 1914 MALCOLM CECIL FOSTER received his degree of B. A. from Acadia University, at Wolfville, Nova Scotia. After the war he obtained a Ph.D. from Yale and a M. A. from Wesleyan. In 1927 he came to this campus as Associate Professor, while in 1931 he became a full Professor. His chief extra-curricular interests lie in two categories. One is the violin, which he enjoys playing and also making, a skill he has practiced since 1931. His other chief hobby is outdoor life, and his summers are generally spent in the Canadian woods, where he is not an ordinary sportsman, but a li- censed guide. 1 HERBERT ELI ARNOLD, who has been on sabbatical leave this past year, was graduated from Wesleyan in 1921, and received his M. A. in Mathematics two years later. Ever since he graduated he has been on the faculty, first as an instructor in Mathematics, then as Assistant Professor, and now as an Associate Professor. As an undergraduate he was a member of Delta Upsilon. ln 1928 he re- ceived his Ph.D. from Yale. 'Eor a number of summers he has worked in a boys? camp, besides playing tennis and dabbling in oil painting. , JOHN WILLIAM WRENCH, JR., received his B. A. from the Uni- versity of Buffalo in '33 and his M. A. in '34 while teaching as an Assistant in the Mathematics department of the same university. After Yale awarded him a Ph.D. in 1938, he came to Wesleyan as an instructor. He was graduated from Buffalo summa cum laude, an award which the University seldom gives. His particular depart- mental interest is the theory of numbers on which he occasionally lectures to a limited group. He also spends considerable time at his hobby of music. n 1 MUSIC ln 1929, JOSEPH SAMUEL DALTRY was appoint- ed Assistant Professor of music and at the end of that year attained his M.A. fad eundemj from this college. T he following year he was appointed Pro- fessor, the position he now holds. His broad knowl- edge -of music and his qualities of leadership in coaching college musical groups have enabled him to produced consistently good choi ' d l which have won New England chai'I11giiJns11iii3s.ClubS 1301 EGBERT WATKINS FISCHER, lnstructor in the Music department, began his undergraduate days in his home state at the Montana State School of Mines, but spent the next three years at Harvard, where he received his A. B. in 1936. Later he did graduate work at this same university until coming to Wesleyan this year. A student of the piano for years, he admits to a characteristic grunt that ac- companies his playing. While in college he was President of the Harvard Clee Club. Besides piano, he enjoys tennis, squash, swim- ming, and would aspire to be an amateur photographer. PHILOSOPHY Discrimination is the hall mark of an educated mann is a favorite saying of CORNELIUS KRUSI3, and the campus recognizes in him a man whose ability to discriminate is unsurpassed. He has been work- ing on his favorite theme, NPessimism,'7 for several years and will soon have a book ready for publica- tion. Professor Kruse graduated from Yale in 1915 and received a B. D., then in 1917, an M. A., and in 1922, a Ph.D. He has been here at Wesleyan since 1923, and received an M. A. fad eundemj in 1928. After receiving his Ph.D. from Cornell in 1930, PAUL ARTHUR REYNOLDS returned to Wesleyan, his 1925 Alma Mater, to become Instructor in Philosophy and remained so until 1932 when he be- came Assistant Professor of Philosophy, which position he now holds. As the result of a trip to Germany during recent sabbatical leave, he is an eager conversationalist on Nazi problems. A member of Beta Theta Pi, he took an active part in debating while an undergraduate and is now on frequent call as judge or chairman for intercollegiate forensics. PHYSICAL EDUCATION HAROLD SANFORD Woon, formerly Director of Intramural Athletics at Ohio State University, came to Wesleyan in 1937 as Professor of Physical Edu- cation and Director of Athletics. He began his col- lege days at Lehigh, but when the World War came along he enlisted as a gunner in the navy. He later continued his education at Oberlin where he set discus records besides being a varsity man in basketball, and an All-Ohio halfback. E311 JOHN FREDERICK MARTIN graduated from Oberlin College in 1920, and in 1934 received his M. A. in Physical Education at Co- lumbia. He came here in 1921, and in 1924 was raised to an Assistant Professor of Physical Education, and then to Associate Professor. Fritz, as he is universally known, coaches cross country and track. He is a familiar sight standing out by the track in any weather with a sweat suit on and a stop watch in his hand, giving advice to some man out for the team, regardless of whether or not that man has any possibilities. HUGH GRAHAM MCCURDY may be found coaching swimmers in the pool any winter afternoon. Either he is standing on the edge of the pool with a long bamboo pole in his hand urging divers to go over it to get their necessary height, or he may be seen worriedly pacing the length of the tank putting the evil eye on men who are slow in grinding out their lengths. He is also equally active as coach of the varsity tennis and soccer teams. A 1922 Bowdoin grad, Mac has also done' research work on the metabolism of swimmers, for which he received his M. A. last spring. i DALE WILLIAM LASH, with his ever-readv smile, has been one of the mainstays of the Physical Education department for some fourteen years. During much of this time, he has been coach of freshman football teams, but most of his winning efforts have been confined to his regular duty of coaching basketball squads. In 1937 his prive quintet was voted the outstanding one in New England and this year captured the Little Three title. A graduate of Spring- field College in 1923, he also has an M. A. degree which he acquired from New York University in 1931. JACK LEONARD BLOTT has been struggling with potential Little Three Champions in football, squash, and baseball ever since he came. here in 1934 as Assistant Professor of Physical Education. Previously he had been line coach at Michigan, his own college, where he had received his B. A. in 1924. In school he was baseball COHSCICUS and did not go out for football until his junior year. The follqwlcng season he was rewarded with center position on Grantland RICQS All 'Pime All-Americana' team. After graduation he had ex- Derlence 1n.b1g league baseball as a member of the Cincinnati Reds before turning to coaching. l32l NORMAN JOSEPH DANIELS is one of four men to graduate from Michigan claiming nine varsity letters. Although he is coaching wrestling here, he played basketball in college, where he was the Big Ten All-Conference center and alternate All-American. In the Spring his sport was baseball, and with the Michigan team he made a trip to Japan in 1932 to play the University of Tokio. After graduation, he taught at the Hillsdale High School in Michigan until 1934, when he came to this campus as Instructor in Physical Education. At present Danny is working for his Masters degree at Michigan. One of the most energetic figures to be seen on Andrus Field during football practice last fall was CHARLES DIVEN EWART, the new backfield coach. Fresh at Wesleyan from his quarterbacking triumphs on the outstanding 1937 Yale eleven, Hthe Old Blue, as certain newspaper columnists called him, proved himself to be one of the most valuable men on the coaching staff. When football wasnit in session, Charley fulfilled his duties as a Wlleaching Fel- low in Physical Education by supervising some of the gymnasium sections. He is now working at Yale for his M. A. in History. PHYSICS WALTER GUYToN CADY, a graduate of Brown in 1895, spent several years at the University of Berlin, where he won his Ph.D. ln 1902, he came here in the capacity of Instructor in Physics and, in 1907, became a full Professor. A man of varied interests, Mr. Cady has invented submarine detec- tors for war use, pioneered in the quartz crystal field, banded migratory birds for the government, and played with stereoscopic photography. KARL SKILLMAN vAN DYKE graduated from Wesleyan Univer- sity in 1916 with a B. A. degree, and the next year received his M. A. Continuing at the University of Chicago, he received his Ph.D. from that university in 1921. Starting his teaching career here as an Assistant Professor seventeen years ago, he was made an Associate Professor in 1925, and was promoted to a Professor of Physics in 1928, holding the Charlotte Augusta Ayres Professorship. A member of Phi Nu Theta, he is particularly interested in color photography and sound recording. E331 ln 1925, VERNET ELLER EATON, a M. A. from the University of Indiana, came to Wesleyan as Instructor in Physics, and two years later became an Assistant Professor. Since then he has received his Ph.D., also from Indiana. At present his chief interest in the field of Physics is the study of surface tensions, or the physics of sur. faces, on which subject he has been doing considerable research. Also, he has always interested himself in color photography, at. tempting to create pictures of accurate color tones from the varia- tions of intensities of three plates, each registering one of the three fundamental colors. .Q',,-k Q PSYCHULOGY r JOHN ALEXANDER MCGEOCH was graduated from Westminster College in 1918, and received degrees from Colorado College, University of Chi- cago, and Wesleyan, where he became Professor of Psychology in 1935. Anyone who has taken his 111 course has delighted in his dry humor and his gentle sarcasm. A greatly respected teacher and an authority in the field of learning, he leaves Wesle- yan after this year to take a position at the State University' of lowa. - TPIEOS ALVIN LANGLIE received his education at the University of Minnesota, where he was awarded his B. A. in 1924- and his Ph.D. in 1929. He came to Wesleyan in 1927 as an Instructor in Psychology, and in 1929 he was promotedto an Assistant Professor- Ship, and thence to the position of Associate Professor in 1936. Ap- Phffd -PSYCl1Ol0gy is his field, and he is especially interested in St3USt1CS, l'11S aptitude and achievement tests being the bane of every freshman. f1'h1s past year he has been on leave of absence, and is spending his time as Personnel Manager of a manufacturing concern.

A college wrestler himself, Mr. Arnold closely followed the Cardinal grapplers, even accompanying them on a few trips. STUART MURRAY GROSS came to Wesleyan from Stanford in 1937. His love of travel and his interest in the Spanish tongue and civilization are responsible for his annual trips to Europe, Mexico. or California. In the interval between junior and senior years, Mr. Gross worked his way to Spain on a freighter. While in that country, he received an advanced degree from the University of Madrid. Recently he has spent a large part of his summer vaca- tion at Stanford where he has been working on the modern Spanish short. story for his Ph. D. Here at Wesleyan his chief interests are in skiing and hiking with the Outing Club and in La Tertulia. EMERITI MORRIS BARKER CRAWFORD, Foss Professor of Physics, Emeritus, graduated from Wesleyan in 1874 and received his Master's degree 111 .After completing his studies at the Universities of Leipzig 31580 Crlin, he returned to Wesleyan as an instructor in Physics in 1921 ag became a full Professor four years later.

Only the senior class retains its oflicersg the freshmen have a steering committee to supervise the flag scrap, but its function is temporary. ln- terclass sports have dwindled until only informal basketball games remain. This has not meant lack of enthusiasm or a gradually degenerating spirit. That re- mains, having been transferred from the classes to interfraternity rivalry. Since Wesleyan began in 1880 with an undergraduate body of 48 students, the size of the school has steadily grown. Trustee action was apparently taken in 1920, designed to limit the entering class to 170, but the following years have seen classes increased until a new peak of 228 was reached last fall. Agitation has grown recently for a definite policy of either sta- bilization or expansion, as opposed to an apparently opportunistic program. 1940 will probably see a student body of ap- proximately 750.

Warner oci While a storm of protest has hovered over fraternities in colleges throughout the country, in many cases forcing their aban- donment, the Greek letter orders here at Wesleyan have enjoyed the security fur- nished by a friendly administration and full dormitories. Beginning in 1837 with only one society, the fraternity system has grown until now it numbers twelve social groups and the John Wesley Club, thus E l33l TIE enabling every undergraduate to mature in the genial atmosphere of a brotherhood. The social life of the college is, for the most part, in the hands of the societies, and they also provide keen competition for un- dergraduates in interfraternity athletics and song contests. All twelve of the social groups have their own chapter houses providing rooms for their upper class dele- gations, dining halls and meeting places. T 'f'VA A 'vi l l , 1 . , J l E -, w S , , g .

Camp, W. G. Chanter, H. L. Connelly, M. B. Crawford and K. S. Van Dyke. It is the only chapter, although in the last century a second was founded at Ohio Wesleyan, but during the Civil War was dissolved. When first established, Eclectic's home was a rented room downtown. Then, in 1832, it moved to a house situated on Wesleyan Place near the Biology Build- ing. In 1906 the present house, designed by Henry Bacon, Lincoln Memorial architect, PHI NU THETA became its headquarters. Its four white pil- lars are distinctive and add to the diverse types of architecture found in various Wesleyan fraternity houses. This yearis head of the Eclectic Society was ,lim McCabe, Al Lehninger controlled the finances, while Bob Stevenson was Cul- tivation Chairman. The Eclectic publica- tion is The Scroll, the name derived from the fraternity's golden emblem. l a l FIRST: Thorndike, D..Brewster, Daddario, Sutherland, Parker, Stevenson, Phelps, McCabe, Folan, Lehninger, Mues, Harris, Lamphere.

Chapters. 1938 was a memorable landmark in the '4Big Brown House's'7 history because it marked the centennial birthday of its eat- ing club, the so-called MChique Chaquef' . I ...... ...,,,. W i ,. Originally an exclusive undergraduate eat- ing group known as the HNorth Club, the ex-act origins of which are unknown, the c'Chique Chaquev became an integral part of the HXY7 in 1862 and now is one of its most cherished traditions. Another less memorable event in recent Psi U. history was the mysterious dis- appearance of the pine tree which once protected the sancto sanctorum from the vulgar gaze of the passer-by, and vice- versa. John Stacey, HGunny7' Grimshaw and Earl Eichin were the house presidents who guided the 1939 Psi U. delegation. The house boasts six faculty members.. FRONT: Hoover, Fitzgerald, W. Waters, Sweet, J.

During the next decade a new hall was obtained downtown and in 1893 the Alpha moved from Main Street to the Creystone on College Street. The erection of the lodge on its present campus site followed in l9O411, and by 1927 a new lodge was constructed. The Civil War elliects re- stricted activity so much that the chapter charter was given up in TS63, but a new one was granted after reorganization thir- teen years later.

In 1919, this society Was formally installed as the Wesleyan Chapter of Delta Upsilon. The new lodg- ings, the scene of the installation, were on Wesleyan Place. After the removal of this house due to the extension of Church Street, Delta Upsilon moved to its present home at the corner of High Street and LaWn'Ave. The Blue and Gold Fraternity is strong nationally, having 61 chapters with the AT Quarterly keeping the groups in touch with one another John Dicklow served as President of the Fraternity his senior year Former members of this organization now serving on the college faculty are H F Arnold F A Farley and R M Smith FRONT Cartier Schwanda Wall Garvle Brown Rubaclt SECOND Keljikian Camp Hickox Wood Corey Deevey THIRD Lawson Cutter Woodward Jennewem Smith FOURTH Koller Nielson Stimson Krudner Stirlen FIFTH Rowe Huck Hartshorn Dlcklow Blackburn Hayward ABSENT Kazannan Thurber K87 a . . . . n . . .

The new members were initiated at the McDonough House in Middletown, and lived in rented rooms until the chap- ter's twenty-fifth anniversary when plans were made for a house. In 1883 the present site was purchased, and the new home was completed the next year, standing until 1906, when the pres- ALPHA DELT PHI ent chapter house replaced the original building. For the past year the affairs of the chapter have rested in the hands of Robert Day and Roger Pratt, the two Presidents. The national organization was founded at Hamilton College in 1832, and adopted as its colors green and white. Al- pha Delt claims W. G. Cady as its represen- tative on the college faculty. FRONT: R.

E331 DELTA KAPPA EPSILON Gamma Phi of Delta Kappa Epsilon received its charter from the Phi chapter at Yale in 1866. Before that time it had been holding meetings downtown in the old Ward building as the Theta Delta Chi fra- ternity which was dissolved in 1860. ln 1883 the old house, which occupied the site of the present building, was leased and later bought. ln 1897 it was torn down and a Victorian house built in its place. This edifice stood until 1928 when the corner stone of the new Colonial house was laid. A dining hall on the ground floor allows spacious living and club rooms on the main floor. Professors T. W. Bussom and A. Thomson are the Wesleyan faculty mem- bers belonging to this fraternity. During the past year Deke has had as Presidents, John Reynolds and John Green while Fred Hake served as Rushing Chair- man. The forty-five chapters of this na- tional fraternity have red, blue and gold as their colors and The AKE Quarterly is the oliicial publication.

K8 Beta Theta Pi, as a national brother- hood, was founded at Miami University in 1839, being one of the Miami Triad founded at that university, and has grown to a membership at present of eighty-nine chapters. The fraternity colors are blue and rose, and its publication is The Beta Theta Pi. The Wesleyan chapter, Mu Epsilon, was founded in 1890, the first members being initiated by the brothers at Amherst. It grew out of the Mystic Seven, a society which had been flourishing at Wesleyan for some time, the name Mu Epsilon being a sentimental recognition of that fact. After living a few months on College Place, the BETA THETA PI Chapter moved to College Street, just be- hind the present location of the Psi Upsilon House, and a few years later to Washington Avenue and Berlin Road, 'where it remain- ed until the present house was obtained in 1917.

Before becoming affiliated with the national or- ganization in 1902, the Chapter had been the Phi Rho Literary Society which was founded in 1893. At the present time Phi Rho is the Chapteris honorary alumni or- ganization. At the time the charter was granted, Gamma Zeta occupied the Alsop Estate on High Street next door to the present Delt building. Later it moved to a location near Church and High Streets, remaining there until thirteen years ago when the present house on the north end of campus near the infirmary and faculty club was purchased by the Fraternity. During the past year Bill Fash and Paul Stephani held the position of President and Rushing Chairman respectively.

ALPHA CHI RHO and High Streets. The symbol of the Fra- ternity is a variation of the ancient La- barurn and displays the letters c'AXP in the form of a monogram, on one side of which is an outstretched hand and on the the other a torch. The President of the Fraternity this year was Henry B. An- derson, Jr. Phi Gamma of Alpha Chi Rho was founded at Wesleyan in May, 1911, when the local Fraternity, Alpha Chi Alpha, founded in 1906, was initiated into the na- tional organization. The first chapter of this Fraternity, which now has twenty branches, was established at Trinity Col- lege in 1895. The colors of the society are garnet and white and its non-secret pub- lication is called The Garnet and White. First chapter house of Phi Gamma was situated on Wesleyan Place on the present site of the Shanklin Laboratory of Biology.

Wesleyan saw the' Epsilon Gam- ma chapter established May 7, 1920, When a local Fraternity, which had been in exis- tence since 1916, Alpha Sigma Delta, re- ceived its charter. The National Fraternity is composed of one hundred and five chap- ters, its colors are White, black, and gold and its journal is called The Delta. The Fraternity resided at 14113 Church Street until the chapter house burned down several years ago. It then moved to its new location at 318 High Street, next door to the Honors College. The President of the Fraternity this year was William Carlson. The badge has five White arms that meet in the center Where there is coiled a golden serpent on a black enamel background.

When newly organized, Gam- ma Psi met in the north section of Clark Hall until 1920 when it moved to one of the college professor's homes on High Street. It remained there even when the local fraternity became the Alpha Triton Chapter of Phi Sigma Kappa until 1924-, the year that the present site on Wesleyan Place was bought. On the outer edge of campus, the house is a long walk from Fisk Hall, but practically adjoins the sci- ence labs. PHI SIGMA KAPPA The national organization was first established at Massachusetts State College in 1873, and now numbers fifty chapters. Its colors are silver and magenta, and the national publication is The Signet.

Sometime between the years 1906 and 1919, the club moved to its present site on Church Street, Which, inci- dentally, offers a grandstand seat over the local high school football field, and, in 1928, was admitted into the National Fra- ternity of Sigma Chi. This organization has the distinction of having the largest number of Fratres in Facultate at Wesley- an. They are M. G. Burford, C. 1-1. Conley, S. M. Gross, G. T. Moody, R. D. Peneleton, 1. W. Peoples, D. L. Scudder and 1-1. L. Varley. Art Day and Robert Throop were the house Presidents who guided the destiny of the fraternity the past year.

The John Wesley Club was founded in March of 1936 to promote fellowship among the non-fraternity members of the college body. The organization automati- cally includes as members all students who have not, for financial or other reasons, joined a fraternity. The Club has the Downey House as its headquarters, and most of the John Wesley men eat here together. Upstairs there is the convention- al equipment for pleasure seen in any fra- ternity house, such as ping-pong tables, radio, and reading room. Also, the Downey House is furnished with an excellent dance floor which is turned over to the John Wesley band for swing', purposes during house parties. The Club has regular meetings every Sunday night, and is represented in the College Senate. For the year 1938-39 the officers have been as follows: Bob Rennie, President, Hank Jarvinen, Vice-President, Dick Washburn, Senior Senator, Phil Trinkaus, Junior Senator, Tom Davis, Treasurer, Herb Rees, Secretary. The Club takes part in all intramural activities with the fraternities, and its com- bination of spirit and large numbers to choose from makes it a stiff opponent re- gardless of the nature of the contest. ln a word, the Club has characteristics of a fraternity except that it lacks a house for sleeping purposes and it is minus re- stricted membership.

PHI BETA KAPPA Phi Beta Kappa is an honorary society, founded at William and Mary in 1776, in which membership is conferred for high scholastic standing. The Gamma chapter of Connecticut was initiated at Wesleyan in 181115, and is the ninth oldest in the country. This winter twelve seniors were elected to Phi Beta Kappa in addition to the five taken from last year's junior class. As a rule, the five juniors standing highest in their class are initiated into the society every June. Physical Education grades are disregarded, eligibility for membership be- ing almost wholly based upon the four year academic record at Wesleyan. The highest twelve percent in the senior class are elected to membership by the Nomi- nating Committee in the winter, and it is raised to the highest fifteen percent of the class in June. Increasingly, during a century and a half, election to membership in CDBK has meant recognition of outstanding intellec- tual capacity well employed, particularly in the acquisition of a liberal, cultural or general education. The remarkable pro- portion of noted names on the roll of fDBK indicates that it is possible to detect in student days, with some accuracy, those who later will become eminent. Professors Slocum, Schneider and How- land head the list of local officers. Those undergraduates elected last June were Charles Blackburn, Arthur Day, John Dick- low, Robert Rennie and Alan Thorndike. Most recent initiates are Walter Hibbard, William Jordan, Benfield Lamphere, Al- bert Lehninger, James McCabe, Wayne Mc- Kusick, Oscar Parker, Frank Putnam, Lock- hart Bogers, James Rowe, William Schwenk and John Sinclair.

The national Society of Sigma Xi was founded in 1886 at Cornell University to answer the growing need of an honorary fraternity similar to Phi Beta Kappa for science students. lts object was to encou- rage 'ioriginal investigation in science, pure and appliedn while membership was to be granted in recognition of valuable scientific investigation There were to be two degrees of mem bership Within the Society namely full members and associates A man who had actually done valuable research Work in the past was to be eligible to become a full member, while a man who had shown promise of being capable of outstanding SIGMA XI research investigation might be inducted as an associate. P The history of Sigma Xi at Wesleyan is of rather recent origin. ln February of 1932, a committee of the science division here was appointed to consider the estab lishment of a local chapter of this honor ary fraternity The result Was that in the Spring of 1935 Wesleyan was granted the sixty fifth Sigma X1 charter amid great ceremony which featured a speech on the part of Harvard s president, Dr James B Conant Officers of the local organization for last year were President, Malcolm Cecil Foster, V1cePres1dent, Hubert Baker Goodrich, and Secretary Treasurer, Carl Leo Stearns 1939 1n1t1ates to full member ship were Walter Bradley and Richard Clarke, while those chosen as associates included Charles Blackburn, Arthur Day, Walter Hibbard Frederick Kuehl Albert Lehninger, Wayne MCKUS1Ck, Frederick Ferguson, Frank Putnam, Lockhart Rogers, John Rowe, John Sinclair, William Stil well, Alan Thorndike, George Whipple and John Blair . 44. . . . . . . . . . 7, - . . . . . . . . - 0 ' v ' Q n I 0 . l c u . . . 7 - . . . - . , . . . . . . 1 U 0 0 . . . . . . 7 7 . - . . . . . . . . ...

A simple constitution was adopted with the avowed purpose to Hen- courage sincere public speaking. The na- tional organization numbers sixty-two chapters, of which the Wesleyan one was established in 1910. At the present time in the society are three faculty and six under- graduate members, three of Whom were elected last year. AEP does not grant so-called Hhonor- ary membership? Only those persons are admitted who have represented their col- lege or university as a speaker in an inter- collegiate forensic contestg who have reached the close of their junior year as bona fide candidates for a baccalaureate degree, whose scholarship is at least aver- age, and whose election to membership has the approval of the member of the faculty in charge of public speaking in- struction. In addition to the technical eli- gibility resulting from participation in an intercollegiate forensic contest, eligibles are required to possess substantially l001 greater than average forensic education, training, and experience. They are also re- quired to have made a substantial contri- bution to the development, improvement and conduct of forensics at the college at which they have been students, and to have made all the contributions to local and intercollegiate forensics that the member of the faculty in charge of rhetorical in- struction deems reasonable and adequate. This year, three members of the college body were elected to the organization: William Jordan, '39, David Wells, '39, and Thomas Meeker, '41. FRONT: Stuart, Brand, Guernsey, Heath, Murray, Murphy.

Theta Nu Epsilon is a secret sophomore society Whose purpose is to enforce train- ing rules on the varsity teams and to re- vive college customs that in the past years have been dying because of the indifference of the college body.

MYSTICAL SEVEN Mystical Seven, one of the two senior honorary societies has had a most varied and interesting history. Founded in 1837 by seven of Wesleyan's leading undergrad- uates, the new fraternity was inspired by the wistful longing for membership in a college fraternity, such as were becoming increasingly popular at the time. However, in contrast to most fraternities of the day, which were Greek-letter societies, the Mys- tical Seven is a Hebrew-letter fraternity, and the idea born in the minds of the charter members was one entirely differ- ent from anything then in existence. Through the interest of Wesleyanis Presi- dent Fisk, the new society was duly rec- ognized, and the attic of old North College was granted as a place for the brotherhood to meet. A Constitution and distinctive ritual were drawn up, and the society flourished from then on. ln 1390 agitation was started for the construction of a new Templum and a fund begun for this purpose, but the whole pic- ture was ,changed when a fire destroyed North College, and with it most of the treasures and relics of the fraternity. The H021 disconsolate members then met wherever they could, until finally in 1912 the pres- ent heptagonal house on Wyllys Avenue was dedicated with much ceremony. Through the years the Mystical Seven came to be regarded as more and more of an honor society, until it reached the status in which it now finds itself. lts elections are conferred on undergraduates who have, in their first three years of college, excelled in literary and athletic pursuits and in leadership of important college activities. Bill Fash, Ted Grimshaw, Harry Heer- mans, Jim McCabe, Mac Mcliusick, Don Smith and Jib Stacey are members of the 1939 delegation, , Daddario, Morningstar, Bottjer, Phelps, Davis, Eichin. Early every spring, usually just before the dance week-end, a varying number of the junior class who have distinguished themselves in extracurricular activities, especially in athletics, are tapped for mem- bership in the Skull and Serpent Society. This organization together with the Mys- tlcal Seven has come to be recognized as the material reward for exceptional under graduate activity Founded 1n 1865 the so ciety has always been a senior honorary order thereby rightfully cla1m1ng title as the oldest one now 1n exlstence at Wesle an The late Pres1dent Stephen Olin was of material aid 1n 1tS formation and until 103 SKULL AN D SERPEN T 1914 the Society met privately in various places around Middletown, buildings on Main Street and in college rooms.

While its main purpose and activity is to interest prospective freshmen in Wesleyan, and to provide opportunity for such prospects to visit the campus, the Key also meets visit- ing athletic teams, runs informal dances after athletic events, and, in general, at- tempts to be of service to the college com- munity. The organization works hand in hand with the Director of Admissions in l l 1041 CARDINAL KEY securing the type of men Wesleyan wants, as it holds several sub-freshman weekends each year, giving the visitors a chance to look over Wesleyan, and a chance for Wesleyan to examine its future student body. In the past year the Key, in order to realize greater coherence and to eliminate fraternity politics as much as possible, abolished the former practice of electing two members-at-large. In addition a new idea was instituted, that of giving informal dances after football and basketball games, several of which were held in conjunction with the Downey House Committee, all proving very successful. Members of the organization for the past year were- Dan Allen, EX, Hunt Boyce, BQH , Bill Carlson, EN, Sam Car- rier, Xllfg Tom Davis, J.

L. lVIcKusick, '39 Vice-President G. E. Bottjer, '39 Secretary-Treas. E. C. Grimshaw, '39 The Senate, a group of twenty-nine Wesleyan undergraduates, two elected by each fraternity and the John Wesley Club, is the governing body and the voice of the students in many undergraduate-adminis trative questions. Meetings are held each Friday and are presided over by the Col- lege Body President, who is elected by popular vote of the entire university. The Senate has wide powers in determining stu- dent policy and controlling campus action. One of its most important functions is the granting of college appropriations to col- lege organizations requiring financial aid. The Senate also must ratify the President's choice of college committee members, and thus acts as an effective check in this line of government. U The activities of the 1939 Senate ran into difliculties at the very start of the term ' GRIMSHAW PAYS THE BILL when the annual budget was brought up for approval. Usually an ordinary matter which could be disposed of in one meet- ing, this particular budget was the center of contention for two whole months before it was finally accepted in November of 1938. The whole argument started as the senior representative from Alpha Delt, one Frank Cotter by name, came out in favor of a sizeable appropriation for the pur- pose of organizing a Wesleyan field band.

Details concerning the first two years of its infancy are lacking, but it is known that the sophomore class assumed tutelage during the third year. A year later the publication was put back a class, be- coming a child under freshman guidance, after which it graduated to the care of the Secret Societies, and maintained this par- FIGCINS IN A JAM entage for eleven years. During this period the Argus Associates contributed toward the Olla Pod development, but eventually relinquished the charge to a committee. At the end of its twentieth year, it was taken over by the junior class, which proved a worthy manager, and it was not until forty years later that the College Body assumed control over it. SMITH - ON BUSINESS The early editions of the Olla Podriala were mere pamphlets, little larger than our present college bulletin, and consisted for the most part of a few wood cuts, fraternity, class, and eating-club rolls. In 1888 the twenty-ninth volume appeared with photo-engravings, but it was not until 1899 that individual senior pictures and fraternity groups were included. Other pic- tures of the annual kept pace with these improvements until now in 1939 the Olla Pod includes a summary of all campus or- ganizations and activities, accounts of all athletic teams, as well as photo-engravingS FRONT: Neppel, Smith, Figgins, Day, Agard.

In those days, students had a different idea of journalism than we have today, with the result that each of the early issues of the Argus was effectively embellished with a poem composed by one of the undergraduates. In the beginning, contribu- tions to the periodical were solicited from everyone, but the need for a more stable organization soon became apparent, espe- DAILY ASSIGNMENT 11101 FASH - CHAIRMAN or THE BOARD cially in view of the phenomenal growth in circulation. Therefore, in 1879 the first Argus Board, consisting of juniors and seniors only, made its appearance. The newspaper was now issued at regular ten-day intervals and the size had been increased to ten pages. The paper still had the unmistakable tinge of a literary magazine, but interest was centered on college activities rather than on town events. The first four-page edition of the Argus, similar to the one now in use, rolled off the presses in 1909, when the publication also began to appear every Monday and Thursday. In 1926 the makeup of the paper was reduced from eight t0 five columns. Today, with 71 years of service behind FINANCIAL Boss, LAMPHERE it, the Argus still continues its ceaseless search for news and more news. But now the job of running the paper has become a much more difficult task, and many more students are required to take part in the actual writing of' the publication.

Each editorial board has met such criticism with various schemes to im- prove the amount and the quality of the work submitted for publication. The diiii- past policy, submitted a plan whereby this could be done by offering a prize award for the best short story or poem in the language division written in conjunction with the regular departmental work. Fol- lowing his lead the Social Science and the Physical Science departments also offered awards in their divisions. The results of the Hrst Cardinal prize competition were gra- tifying since there was more material sub- mitted to the editors for judging than ever before, and greater critical interest was awakened in the magazine on the part of the readers. Many observers see in this field the solution to the Cardinal's difficulties. Sub- sidized almost wholly by an appropriation from the college body, the Cardinal man- agers are subject to the budgetary caprices of the Senate. ln addition, the magazine is culties encountered in arousing the student Confined to 3 local Clrculauon and so hm' body to produce Original literary efforts its editorial initiative to expand the pub- are tremendous and usually force the edil l1cat1on and make of it a more v1r1le docu- tor to use work originally intended for ment' Consequently, the drlve In thls past class or literary society presentation.

This, no doubt, was partially due to the long hours of rehear- sing, under the expert tutelage of Director Joseph S. Daltry, that took place before any public performance of either organiza- tion. The season opened at the Downey House with thc first home concert in three years. Despite the difiiculties encountered in the acoustics and the relatively small size of the ballroom, the concert was at- tended by a large and enthusiastic house party audience that responded especially favorably to 'cMrs. Winslow's Soothing Syrupn and the uHand Organ Manf' The CARDINALS libers and Cardinals also added variety to the program by singing several numbers. On December 15 the club traveled to Adelphi College on Long Island, where for the second successive year it gave a joint concert followed by a dance. The highlight of the Christmas season was the candlelight service put on by the Choir before an appreciative audience of townspeople and undergraduates. These services always receive a large turnout and particularly so this year, even though the service could not be held in the Chapel.

Following the Christmas holidays, the Glee Club was asked to give at short con- cert in Hartford in connection with the Govern0r's lnaugural Ball on the night of January 41. About a week later they sang three numbers in a coast-to-coast broadcast in the 792 Theater as part of the Connecti- cut Tercentenary Celebration. One of the highlights of the spring season was the Joint concert with the Clee Club of Mount Holyoke College The cl1 max of the affair was a very successful dance which followed the program After spring vacation a three day trip was made to Green Mountain Junior College in Yer mont Albany Academy and to the Maple wood Woman s Club also giving the sing ers a free day in New York City The last trip of the season was made to Worces OFF TO BRIDGEPORT 115 ter where the organization performed be- fore the Wesleyan Alumni Association. Soon after college opens in the fall, tryouts for sophomores andlfreshmen who are interested in vocal music are held in order to fill gaps left by the seniors who graduated the previous I une. Besides taking the Seashore Musical Aptitude Test and exhibiting a sense of rhythm by pounding a single note on the piano, the candidate has to get over the highest hurdle of them all-a solo before Mr. Daltry. Many can- didates may be sailing along smoothly un- til -they come to this last obstacle which is always accompanied by many voice crack- ings and the usual excuses of bad colds and sore throats. Generally there are seven or eight freshmen taken into the combined I1xTERM1ss1oN Glee Club and Choir This always depends however upon the number of places va cated by th s nior class of the previous year and upon the quality of the candi dates voices At one time the Choir and the Glee Club were spoken of as completely differ ent organizations but today every membei of the Choir is also a member of the Glee Club unless for some special reason he is unable to spend the time required for both Until a year or so ago a deposit of twenty . - . . . .7 '4 7 ' 7 ..U . 7 Y .

Choir men, receiv- ing a monthly check, the size of which is determined by length of service and quality of voice, are fined from their salary. As a rule, an absence from chapel or rehearsal entails a slash of 32.50, while tardiness fines depend upon the degree of lateness. Often an individual will be paying Mr. Daltry for the privilege of singing in the Choir instead of receiving a salary, because of his numerous latenesses and absences. BAND Director R. P. Weld, '39 Manager E. H. Lattin, '40 if Except for the fact that it played only a few times this past fall, the Wesleyan Band was instrumental in arousing and maintaining spirit at football games and pep rallies. lt was composed of about twenty-five undergraduates who had suffi- cient college spirit and interest to devote ALMA MATER time and trouble to practice without re- muneration. Although the organization did not travel off campus, its distinctive music added much color to home contests. Late in the fall when the organization practical- ly disbanded, an attempt was made by the Senate to revive the outfit, but before any- thing definite was decided, the football sea- son was over and all instruments packed away for another year. In the past the Wesleyan Band has been a strong organi- zation, numbering as many as fifty musi- cians, and has travelled to several of the more important out-of-town games. Official uniform has generally been a black sweater with White trousers, occasionally aug- mented by some kind of hat. FROYT' Weld Branin Whittemo Bl 0 1. 1,13-1, '- , ' . 'ef .

McClure, '40 The 1938 39 season of the Paint an Powder Club was eventful because of sev eral fundamental changes in policy in the size of membership and because of its Broadway production of Transient Breath a fantasy written by Director Ralph Pen- dleton. At the beginning of the college year the executive committee stated that the or- ganization would produce only three plays a year hereafter, in order that more time and care both in acting and in technical details might be given to the productions. Later in the year, the constitution was re- vised in order to carry out the plans for reorganization whereby more undergrad- uates could work as active members. Under the new constitution a person is eligible for membership only througha petition presented to the club by an active member, unless he attended the reorganization meeting. Consequently, the membership was more than doubled. Early in February elections were held and thenewly-elected officers were: Robert Mazur, '41, President, Paul Kayser, '40, Vice-President, George Friese 740 Secretary. The Executive Com- mittee appolnted by the new president con sisted of Paul Kayser George Eriese Earl Bernier production manager Milton Heald business manager Robert Williams off campus publicity manager and Ralph Pendleton director acting as an advisor At this time another change of policy was FRONT Wnslo Cle ey 1' Cotte Ho ghto Hll II Cotter BACK Thono Ma u Ocket Wells 7 7 : 7 9 - d , s ' 1 3 7 0' , - 7 , . , , . 1 . l ' 1 i w, 1n,'. r, u 11, i,'. . : 1sn,fzr, r, , adopted by which the club members acting in the first two productions of the year are ineligible for casting in the spring play. This policy was endorsed so that oth- er members may have a chance to take active part in the organization. The first production of the season was a comedy written by lVlr. Pendleton en- titled Transiemi Breath. The plot centered around two ectoplasmic characters, Sir John and Lady Penelope Howard, played by Robert Mazur, 741, and Juliet Bliss. Sir John and Lady Penelope had been dead since 1760, but had returned to settle trou- bles in the love affair between their des- cendant Peter and his love, Sally, who was in apparent danger of capture by a mid- dle-aged sophisticate, Everett, played by Ed Cotter, 741. The parts of Peter and Sally were taken by' George Eriese, '40, and Susan Long, while Lois Smith sup- plied broad comedy as the maid Nellie May. The Hartford Times wrote of the pro- duction: 'c. . . a totally engaging fantasy of situation . . . the action of the play itself is smooth and swift moving . . . The lines . . . are easy and many, subtly clever. F L ., H. CURTAIN IN TWENTY MINUTES 1181 lnnuendo and sophistication are generally successfulfi Tovarich, the Robert E. Sherwood adaptation of the French comedy by Jacques Deval, the second production, was put on before the Winter Party audience. Robert Mazur played the male lead of Prince Mikail Alexandrovitch Ouratieff, and Marion Banks, who performed so cre- ditably in last year's Kind Lady, portrayed THE PENDLETON TOUCH the Grand Duchess Tatiana Protovna. The comedy centers around two exiled White Russians who, Q because of financial em- barrassment, became domestics in the Parisian home of a wealthy banker in order to continue faithfully to serve their Czar. The banker's children, played in the '92 Theater by Ed Cotter and Juliet Bliss, fell in love with the servants, and the comic situations thus provided permitted the ac- tors to display their talent. The swift pace of dialogue and action was maintained throughout the play, the entire COII1p3nY performing with skill and ease. Following the new ruling, a student di- rector, Carl Plehaty, '41, had complete charge of the Spring Party production of a play of his own choosing, Little Lord Fauntleroy, which was burlesqued hilari- ously for the party audience. Les Davis, '39, played the lead, curls and all, while Ralph Pendleton, in black velvet bustle and white wig, portrayed c'Dearest, the Little Lord's mother, with sweet sentimen- tality. J. A.

Following the tradition of the past sev- eral years, the freshman class put on its annual spring play, the entire cast consist- ing of members of the Class of 7112. This year's production was The Swing M0- liere, a burlesque adapted for the modern stage by Mr. Pendleton, which had two performances, one during Sub-Freshman Weekend. Jumping on the bandwagon of the non-scenery, non-costume Manhattan plays, the cast, in which female parts were taken by lovely yearlings, played on and off the stage, with David Russellls portray- al of a tree the high point of the play. The '92 Theater has reached the limits of its expansion, especially in regard to storerooms and the workshop where all scenery is made. New and permanent seat- ing facilities are needed as well as a larger workshop where the Oral English 7 8 play production class can experiment but as yet no definlte plans or funds have been obtained for this expansion KEY TROUBLE . 9 I s 9 I , . 1 ods. 9 IS , o' . . , ' 9 V 9 OUTINC CLUB President A.

That the Outing Club was a much desired institution is shown by the fact that it attained a membership roll of about fifty the first year, and has had no trouble in retaining that figure Since then. Opening the active season with a fresh- man hike and supper at the C. A. Cabin the Outing Club next held a Faculty-Stu dent hike in the Meshomasic State Forest, but before reaching their destination they 9 got lost and finally wound up at the C. A, Cabin for a supper cooked by Tom Davis, 1201 After a joint outing with Connecticut Col. lege, they went up to Williamstown to hike at Goose Pond following the Williams- Wesleyan football game. The new year was hailed by the club at its Fourth Annual New Year's Ski Trip to the new WOC Cabin in Vermont with A1 Stimson as the leader. A week later they had a joint trip with the Vassar -Out- ing Club at the new cabin, and in Febru- ary the All-Wesleyan Ski Races at Salmon River were held. Al Stimson, leading with firsts in the downhill and the slalom, scored 292.7 points to win the Henderson Trophy with Larry Baker taking second. Early in April new officers were elect- ed: Al Stimson, '40, President, Tom Davis, '40, Vice-President, Bill Williamson, '40, Secretary, and Paul Camp, '41, Treasurer. After the new oflicers were installed, Don Pollack's canoe trip crowd paddled down Little River to see the flood devastation. At the next meeting Professor Gross spoke on 'cHitchhiking , then, to start oii' the month of May, Paul Camp arranged a joint outing with the Mount Holyoke Outing Club.

A World Fellowship parley was N NEARER MY Goo TO THEE sponsored by the Committee on the Chris- tian Message, during which some seventeen foreign students were invited to the cam- pus for the Weekend. These men stayed at the fraternity houses, and many interesting discussions were held concerning the prob- lem of world peace and fellowship. The annual embassy on religion, also sponsored by this committee, brought to each frater- nity house a well-known minister, who en- gaged in informal conversations with the members. In addition, the committee was involved in many other activities, such as arranging discussions with guest speakers, assembling books, pamphlets, and leaflets for all the committees, and sponsoring a group of Christmas carol singers. s a l i r L t FRONT: Ockertf Andfew, McClure, Arnold.

The Freshman Camp, held at Camp Hazen for incoming freshmen to acquaint them with Wesleyan before they reach the campus, was attended by 73 men this year, and again proved to be one of the most successful undertakings ever assumed by the C. A. The camp, as well as the organi- zation of a Freshman Cabinet, which sus- tains a program of religious and social ac- tivities for the freshman class, the adult educational project at a C. C. C. camp, and several other such projects characterize the work of the Committee on Campus Prob- lems, while the Committee on Deputations has filled several engagements at different churches in Connecticut, sending out teams of from two to six men. - The C.

Curts jotting down whatever notes there were to jot at the meetings, the purpose of the club, i.e., to further the knowledge of German customs and language, was attained, much to the enjoyment of the members. Early in the year, Professor Curts showed and spoke on the motion pictures which he had taken on his recent trip through Germany.

The secretarial position was held by Odi Clothier and the finances handled by Lew Andrews. In the Romance Language' room in the basement of the Winchester House, La SO- ciete Francaise holds fortnightly reunions, which are started with a talk of ten or fifteen minutes in' French. Each faculty member in the department has discussed various subjects as have the undergrad- uates K. Weld, '40, J. Fizzolio, '41, R. Arnold, and R. Young, 74.1. Following a general discussion, French songs are sung, and beer and Coca Cola are served as re- freshrnents. Last year the club's presentation of the one-act play, uL'Anglais tel qu'on le Parle to a full house in the '92 Theater stimu- lated the desire to repeat its dramatic ef- forts. The play this year, HA Louer Meu- ble, was accompanied by a motion picture starring Danielle Darrieux. This last winter a party from Wesleyan drove up the valley to a tea with the Mount Holyoke French Club. There they played French parlor games and later held a dance. 0518-R.H -Xrnold Clothier SECONTD NI d N FOL'RTH: nm, Rflbinson. ' 1 1 - 00 y, Mann, McKee, Fizzolio. THIRD: Weld, F. K.

It opposes American war preparation and supports international co-operation in which the United States may be an aid to peace. For freedom, it defends students' and teachers' rights against reaction, and re ists the spread of Fascism. For security it favors extension of Federal student aid and seeks adequate social security legisla tion For equality it condemns discrrmina tion of minority racial or religious groups and campaigns for universal edu cational opportunity The A S U IS independent of any po l1t1cal party welcoming 1nto its ranks any one who wishes to act on one or all the issues outlined in its program and is dedi cated to the realization of a society of peace and plenty At 1tS meetings during the past year it has had var1ous speakers among whom were J oe Lash the Executive Secretary of the national organization and Mary Felton of the Student Christian Movement whose topic was Inside Japan Other persons alliliated with the national organization met with the members and discussed the plans and policies of the Student Union groups on other campuses 1 S 7 7 - ' U I s . , . 1 1 . g' a o l - D 7 - 9 9 , . 7 - . 9 9 ' . . . . - . 9 o g 9 - ' . - 7 as 97 ' ' 3. 9 . v . , H . 77 . 0' 1 9 U A , . . .

Another activity of the group was to circulate a Roll-Call for Human Rights, which WSIS signed by students and some members of the faculty, protesting the actions of the totalitarian states and the suppression of freedom. INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS CLUB Presulvnt J M Reynolds, 339 Treasurer C H Rees, '40 Faculty Admsor R F Bischoff The purpose of the club is to further inteiest in international affairs Meetings are held once a month in Mr Bischoffs home where some speaker on foreign af fairs may lecture and later lead discussion II hen theie is no such speaker on hand a eneral discussion is led by the Pregldg-mt on some phase of international relations in which the whole club takes part 130 Most interesting phase of this type of work is that, for instance, this year the dis. cussion on the Lima Conference was cor. related exactly with the one that actually took place in South America. The same thing was done with the Palestine situation, and the conference which occurred in Lon- don. In this connection Prince Loewenstein, one of the outstanding monarchical expo- nents of international democracy in the world today, spoke. A lengthy discussion was held on the Central European crisis, placing special emphasis on Polandis posi- tion. Dr. Neumann was the speaker on this occasion. Also delegates from the club are sent to participate in the Eastern-Collegiate Conference in Foreign Relations and other smaller conferences. At one time the club also participated in an Intercollegiate Model League of Nations. This year the club adopted a policy in cutting down its membership, which had been previously unrestricted, to between twenty and twenty- five members Only those undergraduates who are willing to do the necessary work in preparation for the meetings and d1S cussions are admitted CLASSICAL CLUB President J B Dicklow, 39 Secretary Treasurer A I-I Mann, '40 The Classical Club has for its PUTPOSG the furtherance of 1nterest 1n classical addressed by Mr Conley on the subject Of the difficulties of translating the classics into Engllsh The late Dr Hewitt then TC viewed Nixon s Plautine translations A H Mann gave a talk on ONe1lls treatment of a classlcal theme 1n modern drama, f0l , I . . . u a D . . . . 9 wk A - ik . .

Borden, '39 wk, 'The 1938-39 edition of the Scrawlers, Club returns to the slick pages of the Ulla Podrida as perhaps the smallest, yet most stimulating and convivial of the un- dergraduates clubs. Meeting every other Thursday, the members gathered at various fraternities or professors' homes to read their contributions. If there was any single purpose behind the club's activities, it was to enable the members to present original works of a literary nature for constructive criticism and comment. At their meetings, the Scrawlers often entertained visiting celebrities. Last year, they met with Sir Robert Grierson, noted authority on .lohn Donne, and Leonard Bacon, contemporary essayist and critic, and when Robert Frost visited the campus in March of 739, he attended a Scrawlers' session at Professor Woodbridge's. Excellent refreshments play a vital part in the club's activities. Highlights last year were the Woodbridge pumpkin pies and cider, Mrs. Snow's home-made bread, and Dr. Millettis sherry and biscuits. The last gathering of each season is somewhat of an event. The Scrawlers de- cide spontaneously some afternoon late in June to have their annual steak fry at a certain site known only to a chosen few and publicized at one time as the domi- cile of the mythical '5Glawackus.,' After a hearty meal and great quantities of Pro- fessor Snowas campfire coffee, which he al- lows to boil over three times before it is ready, the meeting is called to order and discussion usually turns to English Com- prehensives. Following this, comes that most sacred of all occasions when the club witnesses the annual poetry contest between the professors, wherein each tries to stump the other on authors of various lyrics.

THE H0 ORS COLLEGE Wesleyan can boast of its own little ln- ternational Settlement right on campus in the locale of the imposing Russell House, home of the Honors College. There one may discover the most cosmopolitan of at- mospheres. Japan is represented in the smiling persons of Cato and Hiroschi, the two servants, and Old China by the valu- able teakwood cabinets and priceless pic- ture scrolls. Merry England also enters into the picture precisely at four oiclock every afternoon when the oh-so-delightful tea, over which Ceneralissimo Bussom presides, is served to the collected assemblage of Wfesleyanis intelligentsia. During tea-time, the whole house fairly reeks with deep discussions ranging from the problem of birth-rate control in Pago-Pago to the more important question of whether Wordsworth used pearl-indigo or sunset violet colored ink in writing his poetic masterpieces. Once in a while. however, the Honors College de- votees go low-brow and throw a beer bust just to prove that they are human like the rest of us after all. The whole idea behind the Honors Col- lege has attracted great attention in Ameri- can educational circles since its innovation in the fall of 1937. Those responsible for 1321 its establishment believe that here is the answer to the complaint commonly heard that nowadays a university no longer gives one an education in the real sense of the word, but rather imposes a superficial edu. cation in the form of 'ebook-learningf' Each student is allowed the right to do indi- vidual research in the field which particu- larly interests him and which has some connection with his major study. An oppor- tunity is provided for the development of initiative and constructive scholarship on the part of the better students. No separate faculty is appointed for the Honors Col- lege, although each student is assigned an instructor who holds informal consultations with his pupil. Every individual is en- couraged to go as fast and as far as he desires, the only restriction being his own intellectual capacity. Surnmarily, the Col- lege provides an immediate and tangible award for good scholarship. Admission to the Honors College de- pends upon the studentis general record, his work during the immediately preceding year, his standing in his Major Depart- ment, and the recommendation of his Counsellor. -The graduation requirements, except those ordinarily met in the senior 1?

Fifty- two members, who share as usual in all the activities of the college and campus life, took part in the Honors College curricula during the first season of its existence. Since then it has grown until in 1938- 39 approximately one-third of the senior class and one-fourth of the junior class were admitted. At first, the degree f'With Distinctioni' was awarded, but beginning with the fall of 1937 the University ex- panded its plan for Honors Work by spe- cifying that the award was to be what is technically referred to as the 4'Bachelors Degree with Distinction or High Distinc- tion. All work for Distinction is under supervision of the Committee on Distinc- tion, which, in 1938-39, consisted of Pro- fessor Bussom as Chairman, aided by Pro- fessors Cady, Dutcher, Kruse, Millett, Schattschneider and Schneider All exam inations reports and recommendations for D1st1nct1on are reviewed by the committee which then recommends candidates to the faculty The history of the building which houses the Honors College the Russell House is a fascinating story dating back to the days when Yankee Clippers ruled the waves and Middletown was still a boomin shipping center Samuel Russell 133 another in the long line of one of New England's most famous families, estab- lished his own exporting company in 1813 when he was only twenty-four. firm became one of the most Soon this successful concerns engaged in the China trade and 1tS blue and white flagged shlps with their rich cargoes of sandalwood tea and silks were a familiar sight in the ports of the Pacific For twenty years Samuel Russell llved 1n Canton and it was in 1827 29 while he was still in the Far East that the Russell House was built by his friend Sam uel D Hubbard later Postmaster General in Crants adminlstratlon as a gift for Russell s second wife The edifice was prac tically constructed by remote control inas much as Samuel Russell sent from China complete plans and a wooden model of the house The structure was one of the show places of the early eighteenth century Con necticut Valley The fireplace mantels were of black marble the window glass was ordered from Hamburg and the hu e ,grass iock 1n the front door still 1n exist tence held a six inch key The Corinthian columns of the portico were originally made for a New Haven bank which failed 'J ' ' . . . . . e . .

The original house had twenty-two rooms. but various additions since that time have resulted in a total of forty-two. At present the Russell House. besides being the center for Honors Wvorks. houses seven members of the faculty. Every year the Honors College brings some outstanding world figures to the campus as guests and speakers. A few names on the imposing list of former vis- itors include Cermanyls ex-chancellor llruning. Philip Guedella, the historian, Dr. Thomas Mann. the novelist, and many others equally as well-known in their par- ticular helds. At the opening of the first semester of the 1938-39 school term, Dr. Henry Noble MacCracken, President of Vassar. was a visitor to Russell House. He was followed hy John Taylor Arms, noted master of etching. and by Leftist writer and teacher Granville Hicks. Prince Huber- tus zu Loewenstein. one time leader of the Catholic Center Party of Austria, was an- other Honors College visitor, as was Wil- liam McChesney Martin, Jr., head of the New York Stock Exchange. The parade of celebrities was climaxed by another of the long-awaited appearances of Poet Robert Frost. 11343 Certainly there is little doubt but that in years to come the Honors College, now in its comparative infancy, will become one of the most unique and cherished of all Wesleyan traditions. if SENIOR MEMBERS R.

As a basketball coach he has never produced a team which has lost more games than it has Won, his record being 132 wins to 31 losses. Coming to Wesleyan on graduation from Bowdoin in 1923, Hugh Graham Mc- Curdy immediately took charge of the soc- cer and swimming teams, adding tennis .AW 1 OLD STEVE later. He started his college career at Springfield, playing on the football team there, but transferred to Bowdoin his sec- ond year, and played three more years of varsity ball. His greatest success has come with soccer for his teams in this sport have been consistently near the top in New Eng- land competition. Five years ago Norman Joseph Daniels, Michigan, '32, came to Wesleyan as as- sistant football, wrestling, and freshman baseball coach. uDanny is one of a small group of five to have won nine varsity let- ters at Michigan, his favorite sports being football, basketball, and baseball. Captain- ing the basketball team his senior year, he was named All-Western Conference center. The latest addition to the coaching staff is Charles Ewart, star of the Yale backfield for three years. ln his capacity as teaching fellow in Physical Education, Ewart has taken charge of coaching the varsity back- field and of spring football practice.

Too good to meet teams from schools of its own size, as was demonstrated in our first contest with Williams in 1881 and that with Amherst the following year, the Red and Black was forced to engage such col- leges as Harvard and Princeton, and in- deed. in 1884, it joined the Big League. Wesleyan soon began to be looked upon with affection by the newspapers as the Giant Killer' and must have been regard- ed somewhat as diminutive Santa Clara is today. ln that year, the touring University of Michigan squad, fresh from its triumphs in the Mid-West, ventured against the so- called Methodist Mettlev and absorbed a terrific beating. Another crowning achieve- ment of this season was the convincing three-touchdown victory over Harvard. By 1886. however. Wesleyan had slipped so badly that such uinferiorn schools as Lafay- ette had the impertinence to challenge the Giant Slayers. The following year saw the Red and Black fortunes continue on the downgrade. and finally, in 1894, Wesleyan 7'- , x my NIM HXXIN. 1 Crzoncrz withdrew from the big-time Intercollegiate Association. Since that time this college has stayed more or less in her own class, her last great accomplishment having been an astounding 28-13 upset over Columbia in 1919. Since these days of past glories, Wesley. an has seen basketball make its first ap- pearance in 1896, track come on the scene at about the same period, swimming take its place in 1914, and wrestling officially start in 1920. Soccer, golf and tennis have been taken over by the athletic department with likelihood that fencing and skiing will be recognized in the near future. CHARLIE EWART CHEER LE DER J- M. Stacey, '39 G.

Whiting, '40 'A' Coach Jack Blott's '38 football team, potentially a strong and versatile eleven, fell short of success by the margin of sev- eral disappointing injuries and occasional inconsistencies of play. On September 7th a large squad including eleven lettermen and ten regulars of the previous season's freshman team. reported for practice. The coaching stall' was aided, as it had been in in spring practice. by Charley Ewart of Yale. who guided the backfield candidates. Three weeks of intensive drill produced a powerful varsity with reserves of high caliber for each position. Around Captain Mini Dacldario revolved a capable back- lielcl with Hussong. Challis, Murphy, Mues, Petersen. Kay. Hall and Moore vying for berths. McCabe. Phelps, Morningstar, Ali- brio. Murray and Green, returning for ac- tion, lent a stone-wall aspect to the line. Leckie and Hayward. sophomore tackles, and Heath, Cagney, Derge and Anderson showed promise in the early scrimmages. The old injury jinx caught up with the H441 team in the first two games forcing Dad- dario, Leckie, Green and Mues to the side- lines. With weakened morale the team then lost in the second half to Bowdoin and barely topped Haverford. Although they bowed to Amherst they started in that game to hit the pace which engulfed Trin- ity, Williams and Rochester. The final rec- ord of five victories, three losses and sec- ond place in the Little Three competition reflected the determination of the squad to keep Wesleyan's gridiron standards as high as those of her rivals. f-'rt I DEAN Nic AND BLOTT Wesleyan 27 Coast Guard 0 Coast Guard continued its inability to cross the Wesleyan goal and bowed 27-0 in the initial encounter. The Cardinals were on the offensive throughout, enabling Coach Blott to find the most effective com- bination and to test the new aerial attack. Daddario climaxed a Wesleyan drive early in the first quarter when he scored around left end from the six-yard line and drop- kicked the extra point. In the third quarter both Hussong and Murphy broke loose to tally after a shower of forward passes had forced the Cadets to the shadow of their goal posts.

State 13 Hussong showed the results of Charley Ewart's tutelage by out-punting Schwolsky in the first quarter duel of the State game. Sixty yards were gained in five plays as Daddario led the longest Cardinal drive. But upon the recurrence of Mim's '37 shoulder injury, the attack weakened, leav- ing a scoreless tie at the half-time whistle. Wesleyan's disorganization and Bill Leck- ie's injury enabled the Nutmeggers to fight up from their own 31-yard stripe for a touchdown early in the third period. They tallied soon again when Posner intercepted a pass and ran for a touchdown. Hussong, with Moore and Green as receivers, con- tinued to fire aerials in a comeback at- tempt which placed the ball on the State seven-yard line. Challis bucked the center 'I dll Wil ?

For the remainder of the game the air was filled with Wesleyan passes, but interceptions by the Nutrneggers nullified attempts to even the score.

Bowdoin stopped the on- slaught momentarily by recovering a fum- ble. but hard charging by the Cardinal Iinemen resulted in another fumble which Dick Phelps recovered on the Polar Bear eleven. Hussong then completed a pass to Petersen bringing the ball to the two-yard line. On the next down Kay plunged off tackle for the score. Dick Phelps place- kicked the extra point to give the Blottmen a 7-O lead. The first play of the second half put Bowdoin back in the game as Karsokas tore seventy yards down the sideline to a touchdown. Melandv's kick tied the score. Before the end of the quarter the visitors had added seven more points. Legate's roll- ing punt. downed on the Cardinal one-foot line created another obstacle for the Blott- men. paving the way for the third Bowdoin score.

Morningstar brought the crowd to its feet as he ran to the goal line before the pursuing Bowdoin tacklers. The kick for the extra point was low, leaving the score 13- 21. However, Bowdoin bounded back to crush Wesleyan hopes with a final touch- down. r I QUICK KICK Wesleyan 7 Haverford 0 On the following Saturday the Red and Black traveled to Philadelphia where they defeated Haverford 7-O. An improved de- fense held the Haverford team to but one march past the midfield stripe while Kay, Hall, and Hussong led the Cardinal attack to the Quaker's goal line. Soon after the kickoff Hussong and Kay passed and ran their way to the one-footline where the attack lost momentum and Haverford gained possession of the ball. At the open- ing of the second half, Haverford recov- ered a fumbled kickoff, but Murray inter- cepted a pass and the Cardinals took the ball.

On the play Murray was injured and retired to the sidelines for the remainder of the season. Kay broke the scoreless tie when, aided by the blocking of Hall and Morningstar he returned a punt sixty-five yards along the sideline for a touchdown. Phelps place-kicked the extra point, ending the scoring for the game, al. though the Blottmen invaded the Haverford ten-yard line three times in the final period. Wesleyan 0 Amherst 13 Prospects for the .Amherst game were uncertain. Although a shoulder brace al- lowed Daddario to don a uniform and Challis had recovered from his Bowdoin game injuries, the team lacked a consistent offense or defense. Fresh from triumphs over Tufts and Rochester the Sabrinas in- vaded Middletown seeking their first Little Three win. Daddario ran the kickoff to his own twenty-four. Two passes missed their mark and Hussong punted to Joys who ran it back to midfield. Making no gain through the Wesleyan line, Furman punted outside on the twenty-two. Hussong fum- bled on the next play and Amherst recov- ered. Again repulsed in their thrusts at the line the leffmen attempted a field goal which was blocked by Alibrio. The ball fell into the arms of Leckie who ran it out to his own forty-seven. An exchange of punts gave the hall to Amherst on its own forty- nine, where a pass from Joys to Cordner gained a first down on the Wesleyan nine- teen. In three plays the Amherst machine, using heavy interference. pounded to the Wesleyan one-foot line. Furman scored on H plunge, but Cordner failed to convert. Furman continued to thread his way through the Cardinal defense in the second period, leading an Amherst drive for the tim fv or Moons ron Toocnnown second score which Cordner converted, bringing the score to l3-O at the half. A hghting Wesleyan team came out in the second half and forced the Sabrinas to abandon their attack in a desperate at- tempt to protect their lead. Throughout the third period the Wesleyan line opened gaping holes in the touted Sabrina front wall. but the lack of downfield blocking minimized Red and Black gains. ln the fourth period the Cardinals took to the air. Hussong caught a long forward by Kay on the Amherst twenty-five, and a moment later lateraled another forward by Kay to Cagnvy who was downed on the thirteen. A pass to Creen on the one-foot line was ruled completed because of interference and the stage was set for a Wesleyan score. hut in two plays the Sabrinas broke through to scramble Cardinal plays for losses and end the march. Although pushed back to their own seven by a rolling Am- herst punt. the Blottmen came back in the waning minutes of the game with a drive of eifzhtv yards in seven plays that was ended only upon the interception of Dad- dario's forward in the end zone. 1481 Wesleyan 7 Trinity 6 The team continued the second-half Amherst game spurt a week later when they nosed out Trinity in a traditional contest. The Hilltoppers invaded Andrus Field with a determination to avenge last year's defeat and swept through the Card- inal defense to an early score. In the sec- ond quarter Morris ended the stalemate play of the first period by driving to the Weslevan fifteen-yard mark in five plays from midfield. He scored on an end sweep but was unable to lift his placement kick before the Cardinal line poured through. Three plays later Phelps recovered a fum- ble on the Trinity twenty-four yard line. Two successive spread plays tricked the Hilltopper defense and secured the tying touchdown. Kay forwarded to Phelps who made a shoe-string catch on the ten, and to Cagney who caught the ball while on his knees in the end zone. Daddario provided the winning margin by his dropkick for the extra point. Led, by Morris, Trinity marched from their own six to the Wesley- an seven-yard line in six plays.

Wesleyan 13 Williams 7 The season's highlight came at Wil- liamstown on November 5th when the in- spired Cardinals came from behind to tri- umph 13-7 over a stalwart Purple eleven. The tide of the game was turned and one of the fiercest rallies in Wesleyanas grid- iron history made possible when Art Mur- phy, tiny Cardinal halfback, raced through an offtackle hole in the Williams line and, dodging the Purple secondaries, ran eighty- five yards for a touchdown. Soon after the kickoff Williams recovered a fumble on the Wesleyan thirty. On a wide end run Dur- rell of the Purple twisted to the five where he was brought down by Daddario. In two line bucks Durrell scored, and upon King's conversion of the extra point the Williams capacity house party crowd sat down to enjoy the massacre. And the Purple came back again, their heavy line giving Dur- rell opportunities to spin his way into the Cardinal backfield. The Blottmen made a stand on the fifteen and captured the ball. On the first play Murphy, aided by his blockers, ran to the Williams goal. Phelps7 placekick tied the score. in the third quarter both the offense and defense forced the Purple deep into their own territory but a fumble and a pass in- H4191 terception prevented a Vlfesleyan score. In two plays Kay fought his way to the Vlfil- liams four as the final period opened. A blocked pass ended this drive and an in- terception marred the next march which ended on the eight-yard line. McCabe open- ed the way for a third drive when he inter- cepted Meehan's pass on the twenty-five. Williams intercepted again, however, but lost the ball when Petersen completed the clayis interceptions by pulling down a Pur- ple forward and twisting to the eleven- yard line. Moore dashed around left end on the next play to outrun the Purple backfield and score the winning touch- down. Petersen's attempt for the conversion was blocked by a determined Williams, eleven which then filled the air with for- wards as the final seconds ticked away.

The play was featured by the offensive work of Morningstar, Murphy and Moore, and the stellar tackling of McCabe and Challis. Morningstar intercepted a Roches- ter flat pass and dashed fifty yards to score in the second period. With the score 7-7 at the half, Murphy tore through the Rochester line for consistent gains.

Wesley, Jr., '40 L. A. Wilson, Jr., '40 CAPTAIN EICHIN The prospects for the seventeenth year of soccer at Wesleyan were bright from the start. A large squad of sixty men, with ten veterans included, reported to Coach Mc- Curdy on the opening day of practice. The 1937 record had been pleasingly mediocre -three wins, three losses and three ties. The chief feature of last year's season, how- ever, had been the shaping of new material, so that at the onset of this season, Coach McCurdy felt confident of a successful year. The offensive Work of the forward Wall depended upon the services of Fred Reynolds, Tom Moore, Bob Stevenson, Grant Esterbrook, and the outstanding vet- eran, Bryn Hammarstrom. Coach McCurdy had a Wealth of backfield men in Captain Eichin, Johnny Pullman, Bob Mattoon, and Bill Blackmon. These men were to concen- trate upon the defensive tasks, while Lou Wilson, Joe Wesley, Dave Bellis, Johnny Treiber, Sid Pond, Stu Crapser, and Carl Stevens would be capable men for replace- ments. Wen Coote and Jim Coulling would ably fill the goal spot. Wesleyan 8 Connecticut 0 Playing its initial game of the season the Wesleyan soccer team justified bright prospects by inflicting an overwhelming defeat of 3-O on the Connecticut State hooters at Storrs. Hammarstrom paved the wav for the visitors by tallying four of the eight goals. with Vllilson, Reynolds, lfsterhrook. and Pond each gaining a single tally. ln spite of the apparent superiority of the Wesmen. it was not until the third quarter that they buckled down to real soccer. ln fact. in spite of the score, the Wesmen were somewhat unsteady in their passes and their teamwork throughout the game. Yet this first game gave evidence that Coach McCurdy had good material, and that if it could be coordinated so as to work better as a unit, the team should mile up future victories. 'Wesleyan 4 Brown 1 ln the second game the lVlcCurdymen overcame a highly rated Brown team by a score of 41--l. Goalie Wen Coote was the outstanding Cardinal performer, demon- strating some beautiful saves. Tallies for the Wesmen were attributed to the skill of Moore. Pond, Wesley, and Hammarstrom, each scoring one goal. This second game Q HIGH BALL revealed enhanced powers of teamwork, though there was still room for further improvement in this respect, the passes of both teams still being too often sloppy and inaccurate. Wesleyan 1 Yale 2 Traveling to New Haven the Wesleyan eleven went down to its first defeat of the season at the hands of Yale. ln spite of the teamwork of Fred Reynolds, Bryn Ham- marstrom, and the lone Cardinal scorer, Tom Moore, the Yalies managed to drop a last quarter goal to eke out a 2-l victory.

Wen Coote's rapid thinking in the goal position de- ' WARM-UP stroyed some almost sure-tallies on the part of the Yale offensive. Wesleyan 3 Tufts 2 October brought the Tufts team to do battle with the lVlcCurdymen on North field. The visitors led by 2-1 until 12116 fourth period when Bryn Hammarstrom succeeded in tying the game. The winning score came for Wesleyan when a Tufts man unintentionally knocked the ball past his own goalie in a mixup before the cage. However, it was through the consistent fighting spirit of Bill Blackmon, the mirac- ulous goal guarding of Wen Coote, and the cooperation of Grant Esterbrook that the Cardinals submerged the Tufts team. Wesleyan 2 Amherst 1 On October 22 the Wesmen. playing host and exhibiting a superior brand of soccer. defeated the favored Amherst boot- ers. 2-l. Both teams played such a tight and well-fought game that the final outcome was decided only in a thrilling overtime. Bryn Hammarstrom. stellar center forward for the Cardinals. was the outstanding star on the field. He not only scored the winning goal in the extra period. but also was the spark in the defensive set-up. De- serving honorable mention. too. in the cap- turing of this first Little-Three contest were Captain Eichin at center half-back. Wen Coote in the goal. Johnny Pullman and Bob Mattoon at the fullback positions. and Bob Stevenson. who scored the first goal for Wesleyan. This was. in fact. the first game in which the Wesmen seemed to play with the best of their ability. Wesleyan 3 Trinity 1 Chalking up their fifth victory out of six tries the lVlcCurdymen rolled up an early lead to hold the Trinity team to a 3-l score. Captain Earl lfichin. playing his NEW ENGLAND HIGH Scomsn hest game of the year, accounted for the Wesleyan 1 Mass. State 1 hrst score, and Bryn Hammarstrom booted in the other two tallies, raising his total number of goals for the year to ten. The Cardinal players suffered a relapse in the second half of the game, and the Hilltop- pers appeared to be outplaying them. lt was only the defensive play of Bob Mat- toon. Johnny Pullman, and Bill Blackmon that made permanent the 3-1 lead of the liedmen. Wesleyan 0 Williams 1 Facing Williams for the second Little- Threc contest of the season, the Wesmen traveled hopefully to the Purple field. However, their hopes were shattered when a powerful William team emerged trium- phant by squeezing a 1-O victory. The first quarter seemed to point to a lead by the Wesmen. for the ball spent a large part of that period hovering threateningly around the Williams' goal. The excellent Purple defense. however, was able to bottle up our forward wall and the visitors could not find an opening. Williams scored in the second quarter, and from that point on- ward the game was marked by tight play. Each team had several opportunities to tally, but the two defenses were well-nigh impregnable. 51541 Entering the final game of the season slightly over-confidently, the Cardinal hooters were surprised to find the Massa- chusetts State team a hard-fighting oppo- nent. In spite of two overtime periods neither team could break the deadlock, and the game ended in a 1-1 tie. Early in the first quarter a lone Mass. State player, in a single-handed march, brought the ball down the field and managed to score. The second half seemed to bring a more spirited Wesleyan team on the field. The defense tightened and the offense clicked- but they clicked perfectly only once, on a pass from Fred Reynolds, Sid Pond drove the ball past the Mass. State goalie for the single Wesleyan score. Successful Season On storing away their equipment Until next fall, Coach 1VlcCurdy and his proteges have experienced the satisfaction of having completed a successful season and estab- lishing an enviable record. Finishing third in the New England league competition, the Wesmen chalked up five wins, tW0 losses, and one tie. The Cardinals scored victories over Conn.

Although the Little- Three championship ended in a triple tie, the competition was keen and the teams remarkably well-matched in both the Wes- leyan-Amherst and the Wesleyan-Williams games. The outstanding star of the soccer team was undoubtedly Bryn Hammarstrom. His aggressive, skillful play made him not only the mainstay of the Wesleyan team, but also top scorer of the New England Soccer League. ln addition to Hammar- stiom the Wesmen will lose the able serv- ices of the following seniors: Captain Earl CROSS Captain H.

Captain Heer- mans lowered the course record, set by him the previous year. The Vlyeslevan squad was forced to re- linquish its crown to an unexpectedly strong Conn.

The game started slowly with a lot of erratic passing and fumbling, but dur- ing the first half Morningstar managed to chalk up eleven points. The entire contest was characterized by rough playing and continuous fouling. ' l 3 DALE LASHA i 1581 INSTRUCTION Wesleyan 40 Harvard 45 Wesleyan 34 Yale 33 In their last game before Christmas vacation the quintet was easily defeated at Cambridge by Harvard, 45-40. Returning from the two-week layoff, the Cardinals encountered Yale in the Payne Whitney gym at New Haven in a nip-and-tuck battle which resulted in the third win for the Wesmen, 34-33. Getting off to a fast stari the Red team managed to obtain an early lead over the E-lis, a lead which they re- tained for the remainder of the game. Rex Knowles starred with his thirteen p0iHtS- I.- in if and the rest of the team played with scrap and scoring punch. Wesleyan 35 Trinity 43 The second set-hack of the season was handed Wesleyan in the Alumni Cage by a superior Trinity five, 43-35. After match- ing each other point for point, the Hilltop- pers crashed off in the second half with five baskets, which seemed to demoralize the Redfs defense. Ferguson, right guard for the visitors, not only held his man to two free throws hut made five goals himself for ten points. The quintet severely felt the loss of Sinnamon, who had suffered an injured knee in the Harvard encounter. Wesleyan 44 Haverford 15 Wesleyan 28 Amherst 27 Wesleyan 30 Mass. State 32 The next contest with a woefully weak Haverford team resulted in a 44-15 victory for Coach Lash's charges. Big Dick Phelps followed lVlorningstar's lead with eleven points to his credit, and Bill Whiting at right guard provided several spectacular shots. Then meeting a highly rated, unde- feated Amherst quintet on the home floor the Lashmen played one of the most ex- citing games of recent years, and won the first leg on the Little Three Championship by a score of 28-27. It was the first game of the year that the Cardinals had with their traditional rivals and was character- ized by the good offense and defense of both teams. ln the last ten seconds of play lohnny Kay sank the basket which gave the triumph to Wesleyan, after Jack Havig- hurst had chalked up nine tallies for high- scoring honors of the evening. Following this game the Red and Black squad was upset, 32-30, by a superior Massachusetts State College team. The team suffered a serious blow at this time when it was an- nounced that Bill Sinnamon's injured knee would keep him out of action for the rest of the year, 159 1601 Wesleyan 50 Middlebury 45 Wesleyan 30 Williams 39 After the examination period lay-off, the Cardinals won a listless victory over Middlebury, 50-45, before the Winter Houseparty audience in a game marked only by KaV's accurate passing. The Lash- men again fell into the losing column when a fast Williams five defeated them, thus gaining the lead in the Little Three title quest, by a score of 39-30. Paced by the outstanding left guard, Pete Seay, who tacked up eighteen points, the Ephmen hit their stride, which they retained. The Wes- leyan loss was attributed to inaccurate foul shooting, but Morningstaris thirteen points helped keep the score from being worse. Wesleyan 40 Brown 52 A strong Brown team continued its string of six straight victories by adding one more win, 52-40, when they met Coach Lash's men in Providence. The spectacular Harry Platt lived up to his reputation by setting the scoring lead with twenty-two Doints. Before the end of the first half Coach Lash put in a new quintet that in- cluded three sophomores, Coulling, Kay and Hussong. The Wesleyan defense, which had held up well to this point in the season, was broken through repeatedly by the smooth passing attack of the Bruins. Wesleyan 36 Williams 32 Wesleyan 41 Conn. State 54 Meeting the strong Williams five for the second time in two Weeks, the Card- inals showed a complete reversal of fO1'IT1 and beat the Purple squad, 36-32, thereby attaching their second claim for the Little Three championship. The second half,S offense by the Wesmen was led by Dick Phelps, who turned in his best performaI1CC of the season in both offense and defense.

E. I. S. A. competi- tion. Most of the relatively poor Cardinal showing, however, could be attributed to the early season loss of Captain Don Davis via the appendieitis route and the contin- ued ineligibility of diving star Pete Hitch- cock, who had been counted upon for many a precious point. I Wesleyan 47 Coast Guard 28 Wesleyan 49 M. I.

Continuing their stride in the second meet, the Wesmen experienced the minimum of difliculty in overwhelming M.l.T. by a 449-26 margin while taking a total of six first places out CAPTAIN DAVIS of the eight events. Johnny Sellas grabbed high-scoring honors, although Charlie Bell walked away with the 440, Doug Stuart came through in the dives, and Rog Pettit initiated his victory-string in the breast- stroke. Welseyan 16 Yale 59 And then along came the annual Yale encounter, held in the big Eli pool. lt was a delightful evening, everyone had a fine time, the spectators, bleachers were almost empty, and most of the Yalies who swam were second-stringers. What more can We say? Oh, yes, the score. Well, it was 59-16 and the only surprising thing was the six- teen point total garnered by the Wesmen through the second-place efforts of Eichin, Mook, Pettit, and Johnny Hancock. Wesleyan 45 W.P.I. 30 After the New Haven fiasco, Don Davis returned to action to lead Coach McCurdy,s hopefuls back into the winning column by virtue of a 45-30 defeat of the W. P. l. natators.

State 42 The W. P. l. rout turned out to be the last ray of sunshine before the storm, for after this meet Wesleyan ran into a string of three straight defeats. Mass. State was the first to turn the trick when it repelled the invading Wesmen 43-32 in an extreme- ly close contest, the final outcome of which was not decided until the last race on the program, the free-style relay. The lead changed hands four times during the course of the afternoon. It was largely the work of Pettit and Davis which kept the Red and Black in the running. Don, swimming in beautiful form, took the 50 and 100- yard free-style ribbons as Pettit continued on his merry way in the breast-stroke com- petition. Wesleyan 28 Amherst 47 The Wesmen then played the part of the obliging host to its rival from Amherst, and went down before the visitors in the Fayerweather Pool by a humiliating 47-28 margin. Captain Davis, although he took his customary first in the 100, ran into a Tartar in the person of Neill of the Lord Jeffs and had to be content with a very close second in the fifty-yard dash. Rog Pettit made it three in a row in his special- ty without too much trouble. The total of six first places piled up by the Sabrinas and their generally well-balanced point distribution nullified the many seconds and thirds annexed by their opponents. Wesleyan 26 Williams 49 Meeting its second Little Three rival within a Week, Wesleyan found it no easier than the first and fell before a great Wil- liams team, 26-49. The meet, held at Wil- liamstown, was highlighted by the shatter- ing of three Purple records by the home Squad.

The only bright spot of the day for the Bed and Black was the establishing of a new Wesleyan record by the crack free-style relay quartet of Eichin, Daniels, Mook, and Davis. Wesleyan 45 Trinity 30 The Cardinals finally broke into the winning column again with an easy 44-30 drubbing of a weak Trinity aggregation. This defeat marked the first time in three years that the lVIcCurdymen had come out on top of the Hilltoppers. For the second week in a row, a Wesleyan relay team figured in a record-breaking performance. On this occasion it was the medley-relay threesome consisting of Davis, Hancock, and Pettit which swam to a new Fayer- weather Pool mark of 3 :06.5, smashing the previous best time by four seconds. The one discordant note in the Wes victory was furnished by Axomitas, who handed Pettit his second defeat of the season. Bill Mock, however, compensated for this loss by flashing the form that had not materialized as expected in former meets to sweep aside all opposition in the 220-yard free-style and the fifty-yard free-style events for easy 1641 firsts. Wesleyan scored heavily in the dives as Stuart and Sid Pond placed one-two. Wesleyan 33 Bowdoin 42 ln the final dual meet of the year, the lVlcCurdymen surprised everyone by put- ting up a stiff fight against the highly- favored Bowdoin team before finally suc- cumbing, 42-33. Once again the free-style relay was the deciding factor in the out- come, the Blue swimmers winning it in extremely fast time. Captain Davis again collected firsts in the 220 and 440-yard HAP HANCOCK distances. Pettit and Stuart were the only other Red and Black contestants to score wins. New Englands The last meet of the season was the New England Intercollegiate Swimming Championship held in the local pool. The Wesmen placed sixth in this encounter be- hind Brown, Williams, Amherst, Spring- field and Bowdoin.

With at least two candidates in is-at-li division, there was strong competition in preparation for the first meet of thi- we-ar with M.I.T. i Wesleyan 22 M. I. T. 8 As an auspicious heginning lo tht- sea- son, the team easily defeated the Ter-lnne-n. 22-8. The outstanding events of the meet were the bouts of two promising sopho- mores, Charlie Garrison and l'hil ffntler. Both of them, wrestling in their first varsity meet, turned in fine victories for Wesleyan. ln this match the work of Cutler ought to be particularly commended. for. inexperi- enced as he was and spending most of the hout flat on his stomach. he threw one of the best men M.l.T. had. ln going into this . - ' d Harrington. list:-rbrook.

SF mom Flggm' K' 'min meet it was quite obvious that several of the Wesmen were greatly inexperienced, al- though they were willing and physically able to become good wrestlers. The incon- gruity of the meet was that these men provided the best matches and the most number of points, while the Cardinal vet- erans were held to draws and decisions. Wesleyan 16 Amherst 16 Following a short lay-off for Mid-Year exams, the Cardinal team encountered in their second match of the season a strong outfit at Amherst. Conceded an even chance of defeating the Sabrinas, the Wesmen were forced to capture the last three classes before they could overcome a seemingly insurmountable lead and gain a 16-16 tie. The match was disappointing from the Wesleyan viewpoint inasmuch as on two different occasions the Red and Black could have scored pin-falls which would have won the meet, but the refereeis whistle al- ways seemed to blow a few seconds too soon. Behind in the lightweight divisions, notwithstanding the fact that Jack Wil- liams threw his man with a half-nelson, the Cardinals had to make an uphill fight of it in the heavier weights. Bryn Ham- marstrom started the comeback with a de- cision over Skeel, and Hank Anderson fol- lowed suit with a similar win over Hast- ings. Chuck Garrison then climaxed the battle as he decisively flattened his favored opponent, Whitten. , Wesleyan 26y3 A Haverford 6V2 A On February 13th the team traveled to Haverford to win their most decisive meet of the year by a score of 26M to 62. Jack Wfilliams, Phil Cutler, Gilbert, Roger Har- rington, Bryn Hammarstrom, Hank Ander- son, and Charlie Garrison all turned in points for Wfesleyan-, the latter receiving a K1661 ANDERSON IN TROUBLE forfeit in this match. The home team was a weakened team and obviously lacking in experience. It was in this encounter that Roger Harrington suffered a rib injury which kept him out of action for the re- mainder of the year. Wesleyan 14y5 Williams 195 First loss of the season came when Williams, building up a large lead in the middleweight divisions, overcame the Card- inals, 192-lllyg, in an extremely closely contested meet. ,lack Vlfilliams opened the competition with a gallant stand against the highly-favored Purple captain, Spud Jones, but finally weakened and gave way after a real battle. Shorty Cutler added some more points to his season total and tied this particular meet up at three-all as he won an easy victory over Wheelock. ,After Jim Fizzolio had been pinned by Wilson, Cy Gilbert knotted the count again when he pinned King afterinearly f0UT minutes of a fast see-saw match. .lack Fai- son, wres-tling in place of theiniured Ham- marstrom, gave the undefeated Harv Pot- ter a little trouble before the Willi-H1115 man finally caught him with a half-nelson and arm-lock toward the end of the fight- Paul Stephani had a decided edge for the X. i W !

The next match saw two un- defeated wrestlers, Hank Anderson and ,lack Earle, come together, and when the overtime period was over they both walked off the mats with a draw and still un- blemished records. Charlie Garrison, rep- resenting Wesleyan in the unlimited class, succeeded in retaining his unbeaten status as well as chalking up his third fall of the year, this time at the expense of Spence Silverthorne. Wesleyan 215 Springfield 14M The Cardinal wrestlers hit a winning stride once more in their victory over Springfield, the last dual meet of the sea- son. ,lack Williams, Phil Cutler, Doug Ross, and Charlie Garrison added the nec- essary points to give the team an easily won victory. Garrison, by winning his match, maintained his undefeated record in dual meets. He did, however, put a scare into the Wesleyan rooters when a double bar hold he was trying, slipped, and he fell into a pin hold, but he escaped and finally pinned Doty, the Springfield man, with a half-nelson and body hold. Little Three - Third Going into the Little Three meet on March 4-th with a team greatly handicapped through injuries, the Cardinals did well to place seven out of their eight men in the final eliminations, although they finished last in the final score. Jack Williams, wres- tling in the 121-pound class, was the lone member of the team to come through and take a Little Three title. Bryn Hammar- strom was defeated in his second overtime bout of the meet. Charlie Garrison, previ- ously having defeated Whitten of Amherst, 167l showed a definite reversal of form when he rolled into a pinfall. Next year the season's outlooks are not particularly depressing, despite the fact that four members of the team will be lost through graduation. Under Captain-Elect Hank Anderson the team should go far, strengthened by members of the freshman Little Three title squad. 1 S UASH Manager W. P. Figgins, '39 Assistant Manager M. T.

Bennett, ,411 G. C. Willis, 940 if Largely through the efforts of Dwight Boardman of the class of '41, fencing was instituted at Wesleyan last year. With the twelve men that reported, Coach Alfred Grasson was able to build a team which tied for first place in the Little Three sabre competition, and to make a credible showing in the National Sabre Matches held at Yale. A This year, Coach Maurice Grasson, brother of last yearis coach, and former Yale fencing captain, managed to harness the developing enthusiasm for fencing. With a nucleus composed of Captain Dick Schanzle, Gus Allebach, John Bennett, and Paul Jennewein, Coach Grasson built a team capable of engaging in inter-colle- giate competition. I Welseyan 12 Yale J. V. 15 Little Three - Second C Tie Q 1 The first match with the Yale Junior Varsity was dropped by an exciting 15-12 score. Allebach and Captain Schanzle cap- tured the sabre event, but the epee and foils division lost decisions to the more experienced Bulldogs. ln the Little Three meet, the Cardinals tied with Amherst for second place. Gus Allebach won his matches with a whirlwind attack, and Jen- newein garnered the epee strip, but Wes- leyan's weakness in the foils yielded first place to Williams. With two years, experi- ence behind them, the Wesleyan fencers should next year present really keen com- petition in this rapidly developing sport. As yet the Physical Education department has little in the way of equipment to offer the fencing team, but in a few years foils, masks and strips should be available.

With practice starting a month before this trip takes place, the prospects seem bright. and barring unforeseen events. this should be a very successful season for a Wesleyan team that is strong at the bat. in the field. and in the pitcheris box. , ' ,, ' --1'.' 'Q Q13-2 AM nsnsr CA M H Criown 1938 Season The Cardinal baseball season of 1937- 38 started with wins in four out of the first five games, but finished in below par fash- ion With a percentage of .440 or seven wins in sixteen games. Victims of the Cardinals were Army, Clark. Bowdoin. Stevens Tech. Trinity, Connecticut State. and Williams. while the Wesmen bowed to the superior strength of Connecticut State. Trinity. Am- herst twice, Williams. Coast Guard. Massa- chusetts State, Boston University. and Yale. Much handicapped by the inability to practice outdoors because of wet grounds. the team left for Haverford on Friday. April 8th, and thence to Swarthmore on Saturday for the second game of the Pennsylvania trip. but the weather man was DADDARIO greedy and monopolized the show by turn- ing the diamonds into quagmires. Wesleyan 4 Army 2 The Cardinals had the first chance to show their stuff in the game with Army. It was a pitchers, battle all the way through with Frank Cotter setting the pace. Al- though held to three hits by Lipscomb, Army twirler, the Blottmen bunched them all in the seventh inning, and aided by faulty fielding gathered the contest well in hand. An event of the day was the open- ing exercises, in which the Army Post Band marched on the Held and Major General J. L. Benedict, new superintendent of West Point, threw out the first ball. Wesleyan 4- Conn. State 5 Wesleyan suffered its first defeat of the season, when the Nutmeggers nosed out the Cardinals in the tenth inning. Wally Peter- sen pitched most of the game for the Blottmen, striking out five men and allow- ing eleven infield hits, but was relieved by Cotter in the last frame. The visiting W1-:smen did not get a single hit after the third inning, largely because of the tricky curves of Lefty Connell, State,s sophomore pitching ace. All of the winners' runs were scored on the Cardinals, three errors. Wesleyan 10 Clark 1 The Clark squad did not prove any stumbling block for a powerful and possi- bly vengeful Wesleyan team and became victim of a battery of hits. The Cardinals were considerably aided by four Clark errors and the generally sloppy defensive play of the losers, while the Blottmen's in- field had only one miscue charged to it.

Wesleyan 17 Bowdoin 16 With the score tied at sixteen all in the last half of the 12th inning in the encoun- ter with the Bowdoin Polar Bears, Butch Bottjer drove a smashing hit high over the left fielder's head for a home run which won the game. The game was marked by sloppy play on both sides, Wesleyan mak- ing twelve errors to Bowdoin's eight. Both teams were hitting well, with a total of thirty-two for the afternoon, eighteen of them Wesleyanis. Joe Bogue, '38, shared top batting honors with Bottjer, securing three hits apiece, but shaded him slightly by driving in five runs. Wesleyan 14 Stevens Tech. 0 Limiting Stevens to three hits, the Card- inals scored their fourth victory of the season. Al Grosvenor went the route for the Wesmen, pitching heady ball and had his opponents at his mercy the whole way. Grosvenor struck out nine men, gave no walks, and scattered the three hits garnered by the Tech team so that they were of little value in procuring potential scoring posi- tions. This house parties game was charac- terized by the superior playing of the Cardinals and the many errors and poor pitching of the visitors. Wesleyan 3 . Trinity 10 A battered Wesleyan team was nosed out by Trinity in a 10-8 upset in the Card- inals sixth meet of the season. Although the Blottmen got off to a bad start, allow- ing the Hilltoppers to gain a 10-2 lead in the first six innings, they came back strong in the last frames and turned the game into a close, exciting affair. Fred Hake led the batting with three hits and McCabe, Dad- dario, and Bogue pounded out two apiece. Cotter, who started the game, was in trou- VISITORS 0 - WESLEYAN 3 ble all the time until he was relieved by Ed See, '38, in the middle of the fourth. ln the third stanza, lim McCabe rapped out a home run. Wesleyan 2 Amherst 3 Russ Christensen's Single in the last half of the ninth inning sent Benny Meyers scurrying across the plate and broke up a tight pitching duel between Al Grosvenor and Ace Williams to give the Amherst men a 3-2 verdict over the Cardinals in the opening Little Three contest. ln a remark- able fielding exhibition, the teams fought one another to a standstill during most of the game, both aggregations playing error- less ball behind nearly air-tight pitching. Grosvenor and Williams both allowed sev- en hits, but the latter had a better record in the strikeout department, whiliing eleven Cardinal batters. Grosvenor's streak of wildness in the first inning resulted in an unearned run for the winners which later proved the margin of victory. Wesleyan 5 Williams 7 Wesleyan lost its second Little Three encounter to Williams by a 7-5 score. The Ephmen assumed a four-runtmargin in the first inning at the expense of Frank Cot- ter, and managed to add enough to their total during the remainder of the game despite the superb relief role pitching of Al Grosvenor to stave off the determined efforts of the Cardinals. Bump Hadley, L1741 Williams pitcher, was tight with his offer- ings when men were on bases, and lack of batting punch in the clinches contri- buted greatly to the Blottmen'S downfall. Wesleyan 6 Coast Guard 7 A ninth-inning rally staged by the Coast Guard group defeated the Wes team for the fourth straight game, a game in which the playing for both teams was generally poor. The Blottmen outhit the New London- ers twelve to nine. MCCABE AND COTTER Wesleyan 2 Mass. State 9 ln a game featured by four home runs, three of which the visi-tors claimed, a hard-hitting Mass. State nine pounded out a victory over an almost powerless Card- inal squad. The Bay Staters outhit the Cardinals sixteen to three, and drove three Wes pitchers to the showers. The home squad's fielding was exceptionally ragged in this fifth straight loss. Wesleyan 3 Boston U. 10 The home teamis sixth straight loss to the Boston U. team by a 10-8 score came as a result of sloppy play in the third and fourth innings, when the B. U. sticksters batted nine runs against the pitching Of See and Peterson. Horne and McCabe belted homers in this free-hitting game. Wesleyan 4 Trinity 3 By snapping out of the hitting and fielding slump of the last six games, the Blottmen defeated Trinity on the Hartford diamond. The game was close all the way being featured by some good fielding and some excellent pitching on the part of Frank Cotter. Wesleyan 9 Conn. State 6 Settling down after a shaky start, in which the State team was granted a two- run lead, Al Grosvenor pitched Wesleyan to a 9-6 victory. Although he yielded ten hits, he was invincible when the Nutmeg- gers were on the basepaths, and twice re- tired the side with bases loaded. The Red team showed superior fielding and batting throughout the game. Wesleyan 5 Yale 6 ln an extra scheduled game, the Card- inals lost to a mediocre Yale outfit by a 6-5 score. The contest was another see-saw affair which saw the Wesmen in a position to score time and again only to fall down in the pinches. The climax came in the last inning as three Cardinal runners filled the bases without a single one being able to cross the plate. Wesleyan 1 Amherst 2 Playing before a large Commencement crowd, the Cardinals lost their second game to Amherst. ln spite of the fact that Grosvenor allowed only seven hits to his opponents' ten, the home team was unable to score in the pinches. Williams pitched well for Amherst, several times retiring the Blottmen with the winning runs on bases. Horne, lVIcCabe, Daddario, and Bott- jer all hit safely twice, but were unable to bunch their hits into a winning combi- nation. Wesleyan 5 Williams 4 The next day, the Blottmen traveled to Williams for the final game of the year, which they won, 5-4-. Frank Cotter pitched the distance in a well-fought battle. 175 TRACK Captain H. W. Heermans, '39 Manager R. G. Borden, '39 Coach J. F. Marlin 1939 Varsity Team L. Aronson, '40 C. G. Alton, '41 A. W.

The team made up for its Weakness in the field events by its performances in the dashes. Captain Clark in the sprints and Harry Heermans in the distance events were the high scorers of the team besides being the only members to equal or to break college records.

In the field events Grosvenor, Rogers, and Phelps won their respective events-high jump, broad jump, and javelin throw. Wesleyan 47 Williams 38 Going into the meet with a slight edge over the Williams team the Wesleyan track team was defeated, with Heermans and Hall, discus thrower, being the only mem- bers of the home squad to get Firsts. In this contest Swartz of Williams set the Wil- liams record for the javelin throw of 175 feet 6 inches. Wesleyan 33 1X3 Trinity 42 2X 3 Out to stop its losing streak the Card- inal cindermen downed the Trinity squad by taking first in every event except the pole vault, 220 low hurdles. and the mile run. Except for Heermans' 1:59.2 half- mile which lowered the college record by one second, none of the times were excep- tional because of the soggy condition of the track. Wesleyan 80M Conn. State 5-LV2 Winding up the '38 season with a vic- tory over the Connecticut State squad, Wesleyan took ten firsts out of fourteen events. The mile was the most closely contested run of the meet, Heermans win- ning by five yards. ln the field events the Cardinals took first place in the high jump, shot put, broad jump, javelin, and ham- mer throw, thus making up for the season's previous losses in those events. Prospects for 1939 The 1939 varsity track team should have a good season with possible victories over Middlebury, Springfield, Trini-ty, Am- herst, and Connecticut State. With Heer- mans and Guernsey in the distance runs, R0gers, Wetmore, Hussong, Hall, and Aronson in the field events, and Smith, Freifeld, and Bruce in the sprints, the Cardinal team is expected to set some new college records besides winning over most of its opponents. r lm.. - rigs . 1321. . 1771 TENN S Captain A.

Blott Varsity Team D. B. Chapman, '39 A. Felsenthal, '4-1 P. S. Collier, '41 P. B. Harris, '39 K. F. Crafts, '39 A. G. Townsend, '40 L. A. Wilson, '40 'A' The golf team for the season 1938-39 should be an improvement over last year's team, with Captain Phil Harris, number one man on last year's team, playing a very sound game, and showing increased ac- curacy in shooting, said Coach Blott. Bart Chapman and Ken Crafts, letter men from last year, are expected to hold down the second and third positions. Al Townsend, in spite of his previous experience, will have to work hard to hold his position against Al Felsenthal, Dave Daniels, and Stan Collier. The schedule is the best in many seasons, including a Pennsylvania trip with matches against Lafayette and Lehigh. The performance of the 1937-38 squad was hardly successful although the pros- pects looked bright, with four of six var- sity men returning. The team, composed of Lettermen Captain Dave Dary, '38. Phil Harris, Ken Crafts. Hank Levine, '38, Ted Grimshaw, '39. and Bart Chapman, ended the season with a total of two wins. four defeats, and one tie. The Cardinals con- quered Lehigh and Trinity, but lost to 1791 Bowdoin, Williams, Amherst and Brown. Worcester Polytechnical Institute and Wes- leyan tied. Wesleyan 4 Lehigh 3 The Cardinals opened the season with a win over Lehigh, a close match all the way, and not decided until Bart Chapman dropped his putt on the eighteenth green giving the home team a one-point margin.

Dary was again low man with a 75 card while Harris, Chapman, and Crafts took their matches to complete the rout.

Lash il' One of the largest groups to report for freshman football in the school's history gladdened the heart of Dale Lash early in the fall of 1938. Pre-season indications pointed toward a highly successful year, but various factors, especially a scarcity of good material in the tackle positions. H801 finally resulted in a mediocre record of one win-and two losses. ln their first contest, the yearlings rolled over a heavier Taft team to emerge with a 19-0 victory as big Jim Carrier put on a remarkable triple-threat exhibi- tion. The Wesmen consistently threatened their opponent's goal, but could not puSh a touchdown across until the third quarter- The next game, that with Amherst, saw the Frosh absorb their first defeat, 13-6. 1- Wesleyan clearly outplayed its rival but some faulty signal calling spelled doom. Amherst drew first blood, but the Lash- men came right back to count on Carrieris plunge over the line. A third-quarter, six-fy.f1ve yard run-back of an intercepted pass decided the game in favor of the Sa- brinas- Going into their last contest, the Card- inals dropped a breath-taking 26-20 deci- Sion to Williams. Wesleyan started fast by scoring twice on perfect passes from Car- rier to Bob Baer, but the Purple soon re- taliated to knot things up at 13-all by the start of the last period. The final minutes of the game were marked by thrilling scoring drives by each side, but Williams clinched the victory as it intercepted one of Carrier's long passes. Needless to say, lim Carrier, undoubt- edly the squad's most valuable man, and such other players as Gresh, Losee, Baer, Raymond, and Costello will be making strong bids for berths on the varsity next year. 'k SOCCER Coach R. J. Walsh Ray Walsh started his first Vear of coaching in the most auspicious manner by piloting the freshman soccer team through a six-game schedule to an undefeated sea- son. The first victory was gained at the ex- pense of a weak Kingswood Prep School squad by a 6-1 margin as Russ Gregory, with two goals, paced the scoring attack. The yearlings then went on to trample a fairly strong Essex High School outfit un- der a 4-1 scoring avalanche, as Frank Waters and Gregory shared honors with Ralph Muckley for his fine defensive per- formance. Amherst was the next to attempt I0 stop the Wesleyan march, but finally wilted under the Cardinals' strong offense and bowed down under a humiliating 6-1 defeat. With Frank Waters kicking five g0HlS, the Wesmen next went on to hand Cheshire Academy a 7-0 whitewashing. 51813 PRACTICE The Frosh clinched the Little Three title by eking out a 1-O decision over Williams. The Walshmen had the upper hand throughout the encounter, but it was not until the final period that Frank Waters kicked the winning point. Wilbraham threw a scare into Wesleyan, in the last game before its otherwise air-tight defense cracked to allow the yearlings to get a lone goal into the nets. During the season, the Frosh boasted an extremely effective scoring combination in the two Waters brothers, Gregory, Muckley, and Praeger, while such men as Marsh, Schwanda, Zahnke, and Zink were equally outstanding on the defense. , if i L FRITZ H821 CROSS COUNTRY Coach J. F. Martin Starting its season against Yale, the Freshman cross-country team had little dif- ficulty in winning 21-36 as Johnny Holmes took an easy first, Don Steward followed in the low position, and Mitch Spadone finished fourth. With Holmes and Steward placing one-two, the yearlings next took Trinity into camp by a 24-31 margin. Holmes suffered his first defeat in the Con- necticut Valley meet when he was nosed out at the finish as the Cardinals placed CRoss COUNTRY 1942 second far behind Conn. Stateis Victorious harriers. On the following day, the Frosh fell before Norwich Academy, 24-31. The final event was the Little Three competition and Holmes' first place and Steward's third all to the contrary, the Wesmen were forced to accept the second berth behind Vvilliams, 38-40. ir y BASKETBALL Coach 1 D.

Kay and Barrett led the Scoring with 59 and 38 points respectively. Opening their official season the fresh- en didn't show the lack of scoring punch that characterized most of their games when they defeated the Jayvees, 53-29. Then over a fighting Trinity team they dis- played real possibilities and won, 33-23. Unable to penetrate the Wilbraham defense the Cardinals lost to the prep school, 21-15, and, the following week, were defeated by a strong Amherst quintet, 35-34, in the most exciting game of the season. Their H1 third victory was won from Cheshire, 25- 19, but in the final Little Three contest the Wesleyan frosh dropped the game to Wil- liams, 33-23. In the next two games they won one from Deerfield, 23-19, and lost the other to Loomis, 25-15. The season wound up with a 29-28 defeat at the hands of Trinity., if SWIMMING Coach H. G. McCurdy The 1938-39 freshman swimming team's season ended up with two victories and three defeats, two of which were at the hands of Little Three rivals. Coach McCur- dy, however, said, ccWith Davis and Eichin leaving by graduation, Hinrichs and Wa- ters will take their places. Mac1VIullen and Brown also both show promisef, The yearlings opened their season with a sweeping victory of 53-15 over a weak Hopkins High team, the Wesmen taking Hrsts in every event. In the second meet Hartford High proved to be too strong for the Cardinals who suffered their first loss, 44-22. Then in an extremely hard-fought battle, Amherst nosed out Wesleyan, 38-37, 183 1841 in the first Little Three meet of the sea. son. Bill Waters in the 50 and 100-yard dashes, and Stu Hinrichs in the 11-40-yard distance swim took firsts, but Amherstis all-around strength was the deciding factor in the score. The second Little Three con- test was with Williams and resulted in the third straight loss for the Wesmen, 11-9-26. To wind up the season the freshmen then piled up a total of fifty-four points to swamp Trinity, 511--21, with Hinrichs and Waters each taking two firsts and leading the scoring for the team. if WRESTLING Coach N. J. Daniels Displaying more knowledge of the holds and fundamentals of the sport than has usually been the case in the past, the freshman wrestling team enjoyed the most successful season in recent years. After opening with an overwhelming 30-10 vic- tory over Amherst, the Wesmen went on to win nearly every event against 1-Iillhouse Hi-gh's usually-strong squad and tri- umphed, 31-3. The following week Coach Daniel's prides ran up a convincing 275- 4-VZ score alt the expense of a hapless Loo- mis aggregation, following this with a close 20-16 win over Kent. Taft, coached by a former Wesleyan wrestler. Dick Pether- bridge, '38 proved too strong for the Frosh, who went down under a 22-10 de- feat. The Cardinals then came back to as- sure themselves of the Little Three title as they outscored Williams, 20-16. Bud Croop was easily the squad's outstanding perform- er, his season total of 28 points earning him a tie with Jim Carrier in the scoring department. J im, although rather inexperi- enced, showed a great deal of improvement. Kline, with 25 points, and Campbell, with 20, followed in the individual scoring tabulation. I TRAM RALS INTRAMURAL COMMITTEE Manage, Ir. K. Weld, 94.0 Members S, B. Corey, '42 T. G. Meeker, '41 L. L. Cheney, '39 R. P. Pettit, 94-0 H. C. Dunn, '39 R. C. Pratt, '39 i With Art Neppel in the capacityof In- tramural Sports Manager, the 1937-38 in- terfraternity competition started off in usual style as Eclectic and Delta Tau Delta battled to a 0-0 standstill in the play-offs for the touch football championship. This was the most typical of start-offs because it marked the third season in a row that these same teams had been the finalists in the pigskin division and the sixth time in that period that the contests had ended in. scoreless ties. However, in a game played a week later to decide this latest contest, Ben Pfeiffer and Chet Jackson collaborated on a short pass and a lateral to break the traditional spell and defeat the Locals 1-0 for the undisputed title. Independents Take Basketball The Eclectics suffered another reversal in basketball as the John Wesley Club ran through a twelve-game schedule undefeat- Cd, its final victory being one gained at the expense of the hitherto unbeaten Locals.

Minor Sports to Sigma Chi The minor sports season got under way as Phi Sig ran off with the bowling title by virtue of a decision over Phi Nu Theta's highly-favored outfit. Squash, first intro- duced to the interfraternity curriculum in 1936, proved to be just what Sigma Chi's racket-men wanted, and they conquered Chi Psi's squad in the titular match.

In the next big event of the intramural program, the wrestling tournament, Alpha Delt and Chi Psi fought it out between them, the former coming out on top with a one-point margin by chalking up 21 tallies as compared to the 20 collected by Chi Psi's grapplers. Psi U., titleholder for three consecutive seasons, was forced to ac- cept a seventeen-point third place tie with Delta Upsilon. The individual winners were: Johnson, 121 lb., Townsend, 128 lb., Durando, 136 lb., Gilbert, 14115 lb., Stephani, 155 lb., Barbey, 165 lb., Schwerzman, 175 lb., and Ross, unlimited. 1938 saw softball replace baseball on the schedule, thereby giving the Psi U's their first and last title of the year as they defeated Eclectic to cinch the lead in their own Class A league and then went on to edge the lndependents, winners in Class MB by a LL-1 score as Earl Eichin shaded .loe Masselli in a pitchersi duel. Phi Nu Theta, paced by its freshman track-stars, 1-lussong and Moore, toppled the John Wesley Club from the throne it had held for two years by running up a total of 59 points to run off with the an- nual interfraternity track meet. The J. W.'s came in a poor second with 40 points, while Phi Sig and Delta Tau followed in that order with totals of 2016 and 2,0 re- spectively. Sigma Chi rounded out the year by taking its third minor sport title, this time in tennis. Alpha 'Delt's netmen were good enough for the second berth with Beta gaining the third place foothold.

The John Wesley Club, with 18 counters, placed second, be- ing followed by Sigma Chi with 15 points. Phi Sig, Psi U., Delta Tau, Beta and Alpha Delt trailed behind in that order, with D. U. DKE, AXP, and Sigma Nu bringing up the van. 1933-1939 Competition As the 1938-39 school term opened, Ken Weld was appointed Intramural Ath- letics Manager. The first championship of the season was gained by the Alpha Delta in touch football when they downed a stubborn Sigma Nu team by a 2-0 margin after two scoreless ties had previously been registered between the squads. With Freshman Tom I-Iinrichs showing the way, the Dekes had an easy time winning the swimming meet with 52 points as con- trasted with the 26 and 25 points tallied by Psi U and Delta Tau. Beta created a mild sensation when it upset the highly favored Independent quintet by a 22-19 score to earn the basketball title. The All-Star team for this year included two J. W. men, and representatives from Delta Tau, Phi Sig, and Sigma Nu. Hank Derbyshire and ,lar- vinen were at the forwards, Dick Wash- burn at center, and Sam Aaronson and Art Neppel at the two guard posts. The annual wrestling tournament was taken by Eclectic with 25 points as Chi Psi followed closely with 20. Chi Rho and the John Wesley matmen collected 10 points and a tie for third. Among the minor sports, Phi Sig Came through in bowling, Sigma Chi took its second straight handball trophy, and the Independents edged out Chi Psi on the Squash courts. 1871 V'3,,,Gd-liv The Editors of the 1939 OLLA PODRIDA wish to express their appreciation to the following: H.
