Edimr-in-Chivf CARSON GIBB. '47. Business Manager This vulunw is a record of the past year of erslvyan history. W0 ham0 tried to prv- svnt a trim and romplvte pil'ture of our College: as it oxists in this unrurtain and rhunging war tinw. During tho past year th.0 Collvgv Body has flur'tuatvd in numbers. the 115 srhool has loft. and at prvsvnt. the futurv of any W'vsloyan-Nury program is uncertain. We have prvsvntpd thy facts and 100 have photographed Wlpsloyan life in the stt possiblv way. but it is bvyond our power to Ilopirt for you the untiring efforts put forth by thy lmulvrs of our Community in order to prosorvv that spirit and thaw tru- rlitions. so peculiar to thy prewar 70$- lvyan. and which 100 hopv will have a r0- ln'rth u'th the war exists only as a ball memory. 1945 Ulla Pudrida Publishad by the students of Wesleyan University Middletnwn, Ennnecticut. The staff of the 1945 OLLA PODRIDA sincerely dedicates this hook to Professor Paul Holroyd Curts, Ph.D.. that we may express the gratitude of the Wesleyan community for all he has done for the College, State. and Nation. We note with deep pride his 36 years of service to the College, highlighted by diligent work on innumerable committees and by his revision of the Catalog, found- ing of the Publications Board. and start- ing of the Calendar. His service to Con- necticut includes the founding of the Middlesex County CounciL Boy Scouts of America; and untiring work in connec- tion with the Connecticut State School for Boys. His service to his country is featured by outstanding work in both World Wars and the publication of five German texts which have gained wide recognition throughout the country. But, and this above all, we admire Pete for his unselfish and unassuming manner by which he has devoted himself to this cherished way of lifeicalled Wesleyan. mfessnr Pau H. Eurts Dean LeRoy A.

Bagahaw Eclectic enjoys the unique distinc- tion of being the oldest local frater- nity in the United States and also the oldest fraternity on Campus. Throughout its long history of over a hundred years, Eclectics have played a large part in Campus life. Last year despite tlle inroads war must of necessity make. Eclectic still managed to keep its standards and traditions high, and to aid in keeping Wlesleyan community life as close as possible to that of prewar Wesleyan. We have been fortunate in having not only a comparatively high number of V-lZ Brothers but also the greatest number of civilians of any house. Eclecties have been prominent in all forms of Campus life. Mal Bag- shaw is College Body secretary-treas- urer in addition to being on the var- sity soccer team. llDoe Amnock has been on the varsity basketball team for two years. Other men active in sports have been Ken Whitaker, Mike Vinavert, Mark Barlow. all on the soccer team; Gene Monahan 0n the swimming team; Bruce Cunning- ham and Bill Reinhart 0n the basket- ball squad. Rush Collin, in addition to being the managing editor of the Cardinal. was the manager of the swimming team. Other Brothers ac- tive in publications have been Russ Hoxsie, Bob Tinker, Bill Fague, Bruce Cunningham, and Don Herz- berg. Officers for this year have been Mark Barlow and Mal Bagshaw, pres- ident; Art Clemett, secretary; and Jerry Girard and Ken Whitaker, treasurer.

Lmrcmr. 1945 marks the 25th anniversary of the founding of Epsilon Gamma Chapter of Sigma Nu at Wesleyan. Despite war time conditions, the chap- ter has maintained most of its normal activities. This yeara's House improvements have included the re-doing of three of the upstairs suites and the addition of a bar on the ground floor. The snack club has been revived on a war time basis. Cocktail parties for students and faculty-held house party week- ends have been very successful. Ep- silon Gamma has maintained friendly relations with the chapters at Trinity and the University of Connecticut. In November a joint initiation was held at Wesleyan, and delegates and alumni from all three chapters met for a banquet in Hartford during the winter. Many of the Brothers have partici- pated in Campus activities. Frank Mead, returned from duty on the Pa- cific, was elected commander in No- vember and has served as leader of the Navy Band. Ray Guy was busi- ness manager of the Argus while Brothers Webb, Bueltman, and H01- loway were on the wrestling team. Ned Hastings has continued as assist- ant organist and director of the Wes- leyan Choir, in addition to playing in one of the downtown churches. Other Choir members include Brothers Jones and Goodale. The chapter is also represented in SPAC, the Chris- tian Association. the Inter-Collegiate Commission, and the French Club.

Although the membership reached a low of nine at the beginning of the year, several suc- cessful rushing seasons have boosted it to tho position of W7eslvyan's largest fraternity. with a nwmbership of more than tW'Pllly'fiVP. Sigma Chi has been strong, not only in numbers. but in participation: in college activities. Douglas Dorches- ter served two semesters as viCC-pres- itlcnt 0f the College Body. four as president of the C. A.. and is a mem- lwr 0f Skull and Serpent. Richard Bull'um is secretary of the C.

In keeping: with their tradition as a singing,r house. exemplified by posses- sion of the Inter-Fratprnity Singing Cup, Sigma Chi has had more mem- bers than any other fraternity in thv Choir. including Brothers Wiley. Wright, Albrecht. Brewster. Hill. and Van Coevering. Chapter ollicers. are George Neu- mann. president: Richard Wiilvy. vice-president; John Brezlkell. sacro- tary: and Richard Bull'um. treasurer. Sigma Ilhi Chi Psi Chi Psi Fraternity founded at Un- ion College in 1841. Chartered Alpha Alpha zit Wiesleyan in 18-14 as the third fraternity on this Campus. Since July. 1943. the Alpha Alpha Chapter has been inactive us have the other chapters of Chi Psi. The Lodge has served as a freshman dormitory and has housed Navy code classes. In November. 194-1, when North College was reopened to civilians, the doors of Chi Psi were I'IOSPd fur the dura- tion. Although there are no Brothers on Campus now. the men who plan to return after the war eagerly await the day when Chi Psi will once again hold her rightful high position among Wil'sleyan-s fraternities. Delta Upsilon The W'esleyan Chapter of Delta Upsilon has been virtually inactive since the publication of the 1944- OLIA Ponmm. The Chapter House was then. and is now. the headquar- ters of Naval personnel connected with the V-12 unit: and, although no longer accessible to the fraternitv, it is not subjected to the physical eercts of vacancy. Brothers Anderson and Lockwood. with the help of the chapter advisor. Herbert E. Arnold. are carrying on the few necessary details of business that arise even in the case of inactive groups. With an element of just pride in the history of Delta Upsilon. hoth na- tionally and locally, the undergrad- uate Brothers and the alumni look forward to the time when conditions will allow a reorganization and re- institution of D. U. in the position it formerly held in Campus aHairs. Members of Delta Upsilon: F. M. Anderson, '45 W. A. Lockwood, i46 Alpha Chi Rho In 1895 the first chapter of Alpha Chi Rho was founded at Trinity Col- lege. Sixteen years later the Phi Gamma Chapter at Wesleyan came into existence and played its part as an active participant in Wesleyan life. Following the calling up of the Reserve Corps two years ago, how- ever, the remaining Brothers decided to follow the advice of the National Council and the example of the other chapters by Closing for the duration. Until this last semester the college was able to make use of the House as a freshman dormitory. At present it is closed and awaits the return of those who have planned to make this chapter active once again. The two remaining members on Campus at present are John Laidler and Roy Creason. Laidler, a V-12, is a member of TNE and the wrestling team while Greason is on the swim- ming team and is past-president of the student body. Phi Sigma Kappa Since 1944, the Alpha Triton Chap- ter of Phi Sigma Kappa has been a casualty of the current war. The House is now serving as the home of two of the petty ofiicers of the V-12 unit, and their families. There are, at present, two Phi Sigs on Campus: Bob Stevens, '485 who transferred to Wesleyan from Wor- cester. and Doug Ford. V-12. Both these men are on the staff of WES. As with many things. the end of the war will he the signal for further ac- tivity from Phi Sig; at that time. many of the Brothers are expected to return to Campus. John Wesley Club In the spring of 1936 the John Wesley Club was formed by non-fraternity men to create greater unity and social interests among the unatiiliated members of the student body. During the past year weekly meetings have been held, with the Downey House as the center of activity. Officers are Dominick Davalos tV-12it, president; Howard Wetstone, 741-6, vice-president; and Victor Fellows, 45., sec- retary-treasurer. Faculty advisor is Professor Kruse.

Lasting anywhere from twonty-l'our to ninety-six hours, depending on the strength of the ill- dividual and the occasion, parties continue to play a major role in W7esleyan activities. Starting from a somewhat quiet Friday afternoon and rising to a climax in the wee hours of Sunday morning, a typical party includes a boisterous barn dance, sparkling cocktail parties, and a smooth prom with athletic contests and various other means of amusement thrown in for good nmasurv. The party spirit starts to rise from the out- set and never subsides until Sunday after- noon, when even the party hays can make no more than a feeble attempt at partying. Then with a dull thud comes HBlue Mon- day, featuring large orders of hangovers and pleasant memories. Everyone creeps around wondering how hp is going to get that term paper in; who got him that hor- rible blind date; and who threw the over- alls in the milk punch. Ugh! The Prom Com mines: Jeffrey Norton, Chairman Charles Bueltman Douglas Ford Carson Gibb Russell Hoxsie Wheeler Smith William Sprenger The Publications Board The iiPubr' Board is a joint student-faculty committee which exercises general supervision over the finances and activities of the three Wesleyan undergraduate publications. It elects editors and business managers of the publications upon nominations by the retiring staffs. It audits accounts of the business managers and has the power to discharge any incompetent members of the staffs. Despite the rapid change of staffs necessitated by the war years, the board had managed to maintain the usual high standard of Wesleyan publications. Members of the board during the past year have been: President, Pete Curts, Alumni Secretary Herb Con- nelly, Professors Woodbridge, Bnrford, and Limbach, and Dick BuH'um, Phil Clarkson, Jeff Norton, Don Herzherg, Joe Purcell, Carson Gibb, Ivan Nickerson, College Body president, and Mal Bagshaw, College Body secretary-treasurer. Ulla Pudrida Since the first OLLA PODRIDA, in pamphlet form, went to press in 1858, each successive staff has had one objective: to present a cor- rect and concise record of undergraduate ac- tivities in order to prevent an undesired gap between the graduating classes and the pres- ent College activities. Because of war restrictions, many college annuals have fallen by the wayside. There J. R. PURCELL, '47 Editor-in-Chief have been many obstacles in the path of this yearis OLLA PODRIDA but these were quickly overcome because we felt that there was a dire need, more than ever before, for such a publication. This was promoted by the fact that so many of our alumni are serving in the Armed Forces. As we send this issue to the four corners of the globe, it is our hope that it will, in some way, help to revive the 66good old college days? This year J. R. Purcell, 947, is editor-in- chief; Carson Gibb, 47, is business manager; and K. W. Brown, Jr., 745, is associate editor. Staff assistants for this issue include G. P. A1- brecht, T48, H. S. Baker, 348, C. F. Barnes, 348, I. L. Nickerson, ,47, and R. L. Tinker, 74r8. Cardinal As anticipated, the problem of maintaining the Cardinal through its twentieth year has been a diHicult one. Working under adverse conditions with depleted funds and a de- creased enrollment, the Cardinal has main- tained its aim of appearing twice a semester, six times during the past year. The purpOSe of the Cardinal is to present the best of Wesleyangs literary efforts, with special emphasis on the work of students. During the past year this was ably maintained under the editorial leadership of Morton D. Stone and the business managing of Donald Herzberg. In November, 19-14 Jeffrey E. Nor- ton succeeded graduating editor Stone to the editor-in-chief's chair. S. Rush Coffin was elected managing editor, and Donald L. Oat and Heywood Kling became associate editors. In this war year the Cardinal has made a special effort to publish articles on topical and controversial subjects, and its issues have been punctuated by a series of outstanding articles on such topics as ttThe Future of Lib- eral Education,9 and ttPeace-Time Conscrip- tion? The Argus Carrying on its seventy-eighth year despite continued difficulties of publication during war time, the Argus has been able to main- tain regular weekly issues, and has also con- tinued as the official paper of the Wesleyan V-l2 unit, featuring articles by the command- ing omcer. Near the beginning of the fall semester. changes were made in both the editorial and business hoards: Dick Buffum, 116, took over as editor-in-chief: Henry Friedmann. 315, filled the senior board vacancy. The business board was completely reorganized under the managership of Philip B. Clarkson. 947. Along with these changes, the Argus office itself moved in January to quarters in North College in order to conserve heat. With the aid of an adequate staff, the Argus has been able consistently to increase the quality and scope of its news coverage. The only limita- tion in its coverage of Campus news has been the restriction of space to an economical four-coluuln issue. Thanks to Miss Kathleen Gratrix. our see- retary. to our understanding advisers, and to our president, Doug Dorchester, 1944-45 sees the Christian Association in excellent shape.

This spring there will again be service activities, but es- pecially a forum on llReligionls answer to ed- ucation and social Relationsi planned by Ed Brewster on a large scale for early April. In June will come the annual O-at-ka Conference on Lake Sehago. Through the efforts of its president, the cooperative vice-president, Doug Verdin, the emcient secretary, Dick Buf- fum. and the corresponding secretary, Don Jones, who kept up an invaluable connection with the New England Student Christian Movement, the C. A. has contributed its share to Campus morale and the development of a spirit of fellowship and service among the en- tering freshmen. Christian Association Chair Wesleyan men, when they enter the Memorial Chapel on Thursdays or Sundays, have the priv- ilege of listening to one of the most proficient and versatile mixed church choirs in New Eng- land, considering its size and financial resources. Composed of sopranos and altos of Middletown and vicinity, and tenors and basses from the Wesleyan ranks, the College chorus, under the direction of Joseph S. Daltry, Camp Professor of Music, has consistently achieved that synthesis of the sung and spoken word so necessary for a worship service. Although the Choir is regularly heard twice weekly, its truly great opportunity is occasioned by the frequent choral services, wherein a sa- cred concert takes the place of the regular speaker. There have been four of these during the past tri-semester; a Vaughan-Williams and Handel concert on September 3, a Bach cantata on October 1.. Randall Thonlpsone 6$The Peace- able Kingdomyg on November 26, andethe cli- max-the annual Candlelight Service a week be- fore Christmas. Bach took the spotlight at the Christmas service; the well-known Weihnachts- Oratorium, with its joyous choruses, delicately precise chorales, and richly melodic arias, occu- pied the entire first part of the program. At the time of this writing two more choral services are in preparation for performance in the Spring. W...ES 'Seruing the Campus During the past year WES has become one of the leading stations among eastern colleges. The station has been managed by Doug Ford, with Tom Lawrence as program manager; Bob Mc- Kinney, chief announcer; Pete Hays, chief en- gineer; and Howie Wetstone, in charge of sports. Feature programs are Jive at Five, Sunrise Serenade? WTattooW and a Campus News pro- gram. The favorite program this year has been the uAll Request Showh every day at 5:30. WES has obtained complete files of classical and pop- ular recording from the Victor Company and is constantly receiving the latest releases of pop- ular records. thus bringing the latest tunes to the Campus. The station now has approximately 350 classical records and 200 popular recordings. WES plans to go on a full broadcasting sched- ule, filling in the time between regularly sched- uled programs with rebroadcasts from NBC and CBS. WES also plans to broadcast all the home baseball games. The station plans to change the operating frequency by installing a crystal con- trol. The new frequency is tentatively set at 570 KC and will afford better reception over a greater range. m .; Al Bahnsen at the mike Pete Hays at the controls CDLLEBE BUDY DFFIEEBS Mal :Vit'k Jim IVAN NICKERSON. president.

SUCCer After a lapse, of a year, Wlesleyan entered a team in inter-collegiate soccer. The schedule was a heavy one, consisting of eight games with six colleges and one industrial team. The ma- terial Coach McCurdy trained was mostly in- experienced, more than half of the men never having.' played soccer previously. In spite of the odds against them at the outset of the season, the eomhine showed amazing fight and carried on in true, Wesleyan tradition. The first game with Worcester Tech found Art Gosselin in the foreground. kicking the lone Wresleyan goal. The team traveled to Williams- town for the second game where Williams The Electric Boat Company Of New London barely eked out a 2-1 downed the Wlesmen 4-0. victory, hut in the next game Yale outclassed W'esleyan t0 the tune of 5-0. House Parties week-end brought Brown to the XVes Campus, and, before a large crowd of eager fans, Wesleyan triumphed 2-1 for the lone vic- tory of the season. Carson Gihh played superbly for the home team; indeed, the captain of the squad was the sparkplug all season. Wesleyan then lost to Yale again 2-0. to Coast Guard 1-0. and to Trinity 3-0. The team consisted of Dewey, Norton, Clark. McCurdy, J. E. Jones, Captain Gibb, Cosselin, Bellis, North, Bagshaw, Vinavert, Allern, who were most active; in addition to Adamian, Mount, Roberts, Van Coevering, Whitaker, Com- iskey, Clayman, Barlow, Dorchester, and Baker. Gibb, Dewey, and Allern were the, individual star performers for the W'es team, with many in- experienced players, like Jones, doing splen- tlidly. Ivan Niekerson was the manager. Inc! Rate.

Wesleyan rounded out the season with a .500 average, winning eight games and losing a like numher. George Watts, h'Stuhhy Hayles. and Frank Wilhy represented the V-12 unit on the starting five. Scott Boley and Doc Aumock. the only returning letterman, were the civilian members of the quintet. Winning the first two contests against Groton Coast Guard and Otis Field, the VVesmen suffered their hrst defeat at the hands of an aggressive W'illiams team by a one-point margin. In the last five minutes of a nip and tuck ball game the Car- dinal five came from behind to capture a 48-4-3 decision from l7-C0nn. The next day a weary Wyee squad traveled to New Haven t0 Iose to Yale 36 54. Mitchell Field eked out a 36-11 triumph in a game which the Cardinals led throughout the three quarters. Camp Endieott and the Quonset Naval Training Station then defeated the Wesinen on their home courts. The Cardinals bounced back to hand the liniversity of Connecticut its second defeat on our court 39-31. but a strong Coast Guard quintet took the long end of a 42-48 score in a driving. aggressive game. Wesleyan 10st what was perhaps the lemn. Willium hardest fought game to Trinity by :1 heart- breaking one-point margin. The following week- end a strong Camp Endieott five journeyed to Middletown to hand the W'esmen a 75-58 defeat before a house party erowd of five hundred. 1'ni0n and Vilorcester were defeated in the filled two games of the season by margins of 62-45 and 57-45. Frank 1Vi11iy; former aii-state Rhode Island player. led the Cardinal attack throughout the year by garnering.r 196 points in sixteen games for am average of 12.3 points per contest. George Wlatts. former lineman for Lou Little at C01um- hizl, kept the Cardinal hackhoards under control by capturing the majority of the rebounds. Though they split even. the Wesmen gave a good account of themselves throughout the past season. especially considering.r the brand of com- petition they encountered.

Klunuunr Cnl'hn Swimming With a group comprised of only three vet- erans, Norton, Bellis, and MCCurdy, and a ma- jority of freshmen, Coach McCurdy turned out a very creditable swimming team last season. In the diving. Jim Bellis did very well throughout the season, but pulled his neck he- fore the New England competitions. Special credit goes to Herh Horn, who, in his first year of competitive diving. improved steadily and won a third place in the New England compe- tition. Paul McCurdy and Jeff Norton both turned in fine records by placing in all breast stroke events. Dick Titus, Al LeFebvre. and Bryant Cushing swam the 220 and 440-yard grinds, and all showed great promise for their first year of college competition. Bill Nutter proved to be a valuable asset. ably TRACE assisted by Gene Monahan, in the breast stroke. Jim Babcock, Charlie Bippert, Roy Greason, Jim Spero, and Jim Perry swam the 50, 100- yard freestyle events, and comprised the 400- yard relay team. Jim Perry did an excellent job, winning four first places in the 50, and three in the 100 during the season. Team man- ager was Rush Collin, 116. Coach McCurdy feels it was one of the most promising freshman aggregations he has han- dled in many years. It is unfortunate that they will not be able to participate in another season, for the entire squad, except for three civilians, is composed of V-12 students. Wesleyan 44 Brown 31 Wesleyan 41 M. I.

During the spring the team was composed of two civilians and four V-lZ's, with the remainder from the V-S unit. By Summer the civilian personnel had left for service and most of the V-12is had gone to midshipmenis schools; thereafter the team was made up of V-S's, with the exception of one V-12. MacDonald and Averill 1V-12l were the only returning lettermen from the preceding team. However, with the influx of excellent ma- terial from the V-S school. the team managed to stay just above the .500 mark for the season. Outstanding for the team were Begleries, pitcher Pom the University of Oregon and minor leagues; Weitecamp, cathher. outfielder, and good batter; Everts, infielder and graduate of Baseha Firr!
