O PHI BETA KAPPA is an honorary society, founded at William and Mary in 1776, whose criterion for membership is high scholastic achievement. Wesleyants Connecticut Gamma Chapter was the ninth chapter of Phi Beta Kappa, the lnationts oldest Greek-letter society. Members of Phi Beta Kappa are elected twice a year from the senior class. There are no concrete rules determining eligi- bility other than that which says that no more than fifteen per cent of the senior class may he elected. Membership is based entirely on the studentts academic record with the exception of physical educatioh grades. The record of members of Phi Beta Kappa has given the so- ciety a most distinguished and honored name. 59 M ystical Seven Medd, Nelson, Dyke, Firstenberger, Haight, Johnson, Ford. 0 ALTHOUGH AT PRESENT one of Wesleyants two senior honor societies, Mystical Seven was originally founded in 1837 as a college fraternity. After having obtained recognition as an honorary, it was permitted to hold its meetings in the attic of old North College until 1891 when that building was destroyed by fire. From then until 1912, when the present hepagonal building was erected on Wyllys Avenue, the group met where best it could. h Membership in the society is awarded in recognition of leadership in campus activities, and each spring seven juniors are tapped who are oustanding in the various phases of under- graduate life. The present members of the organization are: Peter D. Dyke, William G. F irstenberger, Andrew E. Ford, War- ren H. Haight, Frank A. Johnson, and William H. Nelson III. The seventh member, Charles L. Medd, graduated at the end of the first semester. 6O Skull and Selpem CHARLES M. TIEBOUT FRANK G. BINSWANGER JESSE H. HOLMES, JR. DONALD M. JOFFRAY WILLIAM H. NELSON THOMAS Ra POWELL, JR. DANIEL L. ROBERTSON PETER WICHOWSKI 0 IN RECOGNITION for outstanding accomplishment in extra- curricular activities, especially in athletics, a select group of men from the junior class are tapped each Spring for member- ship in the Skull and Serpent. Founded in 1865, this organiza- tion lays claim to the title of oldest senior honorary society at Wesleyan. The Skull and Serpent occupies a house on Wyllys Avenue which was designed for the Society by Henry Bacon, and was constructed in 1914. Chuck Tiehout served in the capacity of 11Head Sk111151 this year. 61 Extra-currz'cular activities enrich the academic basis for Wesleyan life.

The Senate overcame one of its most serious obstaclese- the cut in its budget e by levying a six dollar tax per student. When the social problem was brought up, the CB Senate arranged for a student-faculty committee which clarified the social regulations. Some administrative improvements were carried out by amend- ments concerning rushing elections and also by the recognition of the Outing Club as a CB sponsored organization. The jazz concert held hy the Senate for the benefit of the M0 Dmnopoulos Fund and the student-faculty Since much of the Senatds work had to he carried out by the different committees, their smooth this year con- tributed much to the efficiency and success of the Senate. The Honor System Committee under Richard Powell brought about some improvements in the honor system and the Awards Committee headed by Dave Harris helped to provide College Body sponsorship of athletic sweater awards. functioning Some of the other CB committees and their chairmen included Cohan Jenkinis Constitution Committee, which was in charge of new Constitutional amendments; Wayne Christensonis Demop- oulos Committee, which organized blood do- nations and the jazz concert for the Demop- oulos fund; Porter Downey,s Assembly Committee, which arranged for the different assembly speakers and programs; Dick GuidanceV Committee which helped many students obtain jobs around campus and also served in getting speakers and representatives of diiferent business firms to talk to students; Phil Foxis Tevanys Vocational Dormitory Committee which was in charge of selecting the proctors and keeping order in the dormitories; Peter Dykeis Library and Curriculum Committee which besides advis- ing on the curriculum served very practically in having pencil sharpeners installed in Fisk Hall; John Williamsi and Dick Velleuis Downey House Committee, which planned the Freshman introductory dinners. Besides these committees the College Body Senate initiated the Rally Committee and the Plan- ning Committee to improve the rallies and the calendar of events, respectively. The Rushing Committee under Frank Ridout, The Elem tions Committee under Milt Flocken, and the Prom Committee under Bill Siebert deserve especial mention for their fine work in the past year. The 149 Senate and its energetic ofiicers can look back at its accomplishments with the feeling that they have effectually served the Wesleyan Community and that they have received beneficial experience in self-govern- ment.

Pro- fessor Curts in the Board,s Chairman, Mr. Connelley 0f the Alumni Association its Sec- retary, and Professor Burford, its financial advisor. The editors and business managers of each publication are elected by the Board and are responsible to it. Over its many years the Publications Board has developed policies and institutions which have been proven sound instruments for the stability and quality of Wesleyank publications. Standing Committee of the College Church 0 THE STANDING COMMITTEE of the College Church is a faculty-student committee which elects the preachers and determines the policy of the Church of Christ at Wesleyan University. Faculty participation is on 3 vol- unteer basis, and student members, represent- ing each undergraduate class, are elected by the members of the church. In the past year there has been an attempt 66 to add some of the diversity to the program of the Church selecting difl'erent types of services with a wider denominational partici- pation. This policy has also included musical services, a Christmas carol sing, participation in the worldwide Studentsi Day of Prayer, a presentation of T. S. Eliot,s Murder in the Cathedral, and a service conducted by the stu- dent members of the Christian Association. 0 THE CARDINAL KEY, the undergradu- ate welcoming organization, has once again carried out its duties quietly and emciently. This organization of Junior members of the fraternities and the John Wesley Club has planned and directed a number of highly suc- cessful sub-freshman activities, and has helped in the meeting and greeting of teams and clubs visiting on the campus. Early in the Fall, the fraternities selected the following men to be representatives on this organization: Ed Duncan, Dan Gregory, George Frantzis, Les J ones, Ralph Jones, Sherwin Montell, Barney Kathan, Steve Roz- hicki, Charlie Schultz, Biff Shaw, Bob Smith, Roger Stimson, and J ack Wiese. This formida- ble and representative group immediately met and elected Biff Shaw its President and Ed Duncan its Secretary-Treasurer for the year. In one of the early meetings, Dean Eldridge, Admissions Director Andrews, and Past President Frank Johnsonn gave the group an idea of its duties and responsibilities of the Key. This started the oHicial year for the group. Immediately after this, the Key began plans for the various sub-freshman activities and scheduled coverage for all athletic events. While these plans were being made, the mem- bers carried on their regular guide service for all visitors on the campus. Almost every day some one of the group was called upon to ful- fill one of these many routine services. Late in February the first of the orga- nized sub.frosh groups arrived on campus. This was in the annual Deerfield Caravan with a group of some sixty interested un- dergraduates. A week later the annual Suh-Freshman Weekend was held for inter- ested high and prep school students from all over the country. A full athletic calendar was arranged for both groups, and other en- tertainment was furnished by the host fra- ternities. The third weekend in April marked the annual Olin Weekend. Once again out- standing students from all over the country came to Wesleyan to have their scholarship interviews. With the passing of these annual events, the main work of the Key was done.

Under the leadership of President Bill Hicks, Vice President Wayne Christenson and Sec- retary-treasurer Tom Soukup, this year,s TNE concentrated much of its effort in creat- ing the organizationhs first constitution, pat- terned after that of the College Body. Also among the yeafs activities was the presenta- tion of the TNE cup to Donn Maurer for the most outstanding achievements in freshman athletics. Besides its chief function of enforcing training rules, TNE also serves to maintain college traditions and promote athletics as a whole on campus. Membership is limited to sophomores of high character and athletic accomplishment. 68 MEMBERS: Standing: Burbank, Harm s.

It is to produce a literary magazine worthy of the Wesleyan com- munity. This may he done, the editors feel, by recognizing and satisfying two primary obligations. There is the responsibility to the reader - the Cardinalis function is to entertain, in the highest sense of that word, by finding and printing the best in fiction, poetry, humor, art, criticism. and commentary. There is the responsibility to the writer e there must he no leveling point, no criterion other than quality. Each succeeding issue of the Cardinal must contribute to and pre- serve a literary tradition and a creative en- vironment suitable to the liberal arts ideal. The Cardinal, first published in 1925, is the literary magazine of the Wesleyan com- munity, and is the true product of Wesleyan in as much as most of its funds and all of its contributions stem from the College Body. This year, as in other years, the Cardinal has striven towards the widest possible divers- ification of material. Editorials on college and world affairs, stories7 art and photog- raphy pieces, as well as varied forms of poetry have been published for the benefit of the Wesleyan community. Also, this year was featured by an 035011 to obtain more funds to help meet increased These efforts included costs of publication. Cardzhal 5g Ea LL? lIIJ. r s r l'ISI-lAh .

The school year started with Pete Dyke at the helm, Dale Sutton as Business Manager, and Dick Sanger as Art Editor. After the regular staff elections at mid-year, a new staff took the reins, with Chad Hall, Editor-in- Chief; Dick Sanger, Managing Editor; and Paul Kerr, Business Manager.

The paper, des- pite initial financial difficulties, was issued twice a week as usual. The Argus attempted to achieve a satis- factory balance of news, sports, and features, and continued the policy of front page report- In the fall the Senior Editorial Board created the posi- ing of prominent sports events. tion of Features Editor in order to augment in variety and style the feature articles. Rather than assign editorial subjects to individual members of the Senior Board, it was decided to have the Editors meet as a group for the formation of editorial policy. After a policy decision was reached, one mem- ber of the Board wrote the editorial and sub- mitted it for corrections and final approval to the other members of the Senior Board. This system tended generally to insure con- tinuity of editorial opinion throughout.the year. In the case of the Argus, this pamphlet was followed up, after the freshmen joined the paper, with an intensive training pro- gram. Each freshman was asked to write three trial stories: one initiative, one feature, and one report of an Assembly speech. All candidates were asked to write on the same speech, giving the Managing Editor, who was in charge. a basis of comparison. The candi- dates were encouraged throughout the year to submit initiative stories. Working with Churchman during the year were Jack Dolph, Managing Editor; Bill Mala- mud, News Editor; Bill DuH, Assistant; Cohan Jenkins and Marsh Elmore, Sports Editors; Everett Skillings, Assistant; and Howard Dyer and John Pallein, Desk Editors. Steele Morse was elected to the newly created features editorship. The Business Board, which carried on an active program of advertising and subscrip- tion solicitation, was headed the first semester by Jack Evans and the second, by George Phillips. In addition to their other duties, which will soon be distributed to the mer- chants of Middletown. Watson Steelman Morss, Jr. was elected Editor-in-Chief of the Argus in February, 1950. The other elections were J ohn Barker In order to give the staff a full oppor- tunity to know every facet of the production of the paper, all staff members were rotated between reporting and desk work. By this method junior editors and scouts were made aware of the full scope of the newspaperis work and were thus better prepared to take over more responsible positions. Their full knowledge of methods of news gathering, writing, editing, make-up, and administration has helped to make for a more flexible paper. The Argus during the year engaged in a number of outside activities. In February, 1949, a full delegation of staff members at- tend the annual Inter-Collegiate News Confer- ence at Mount Holyoke.

In that attempt to create something sub- stantial, the staff has made use of conservative page layouts that lend a continuity to the whole. We hope that our treatment of the faculty will be regarded as an improvement. It is possible that the reduced number of pages for each fraternity will be criticized. This policy was determined, however, only in the faith that each fraternity could be fairly represented in the one page alloted it. The production of the 1950 Olla Pod has been very gratifying and educating for its staff; the staff hopes that the student body will find that our eHort has been worthwhile. 011a Podrz'da JOHN C.

As WESU cele- hrated its Tenth Anniversary, many improve- ments were noted. The Publications Board sanctioned formation of the Wesleyan Broad- cast Association to manage the affairs of WESU, which call letters had been assigned last April by the Federal Communications Commission. Robert D. Stuart, 42, the sta- tion,s founder and first chairman, was ap- pointed to the newly created position of Alumnus Adviser. WESU gained the distinc- tion of being the largest activity on campus, with each of the ninety-five staff members actively engaged in one or more of the sta- tionas ten departments. There was extensive work during the summer on the technical facilities7 including the construction of new equipment, which enabled the station to take to the air as 640 on the dial within hours after the class 1953 arrived on campus, in September. Initiative continued throughout the year, with the proven format of news, music, and sports, with occasional special features, find- ing expression in the station's increased hours of operation, as the daily schedule hours; from 3:30 p.111. to 12:30 in the morning. Mel Roboif, chief of announcer training, soon had crews of eager freshman integrated into the staff, and working condi- tions were improved when Studio Manager F rank Kendall provided redecoration of both studio and control room. 73 F inancially, WESU, like all members of the Pub Board1 faced rough sledding. Sad- dled with years of accumulated depreciation, and in need of capital reserves to accomplish whatever changes to the transmission system might be dictated by legislation pending At the F .C.C., WESU attempted bravely to re- place its outdated facilities with more modern equipment. Revenues continued high, as the advertising staff hnder Sales Director Finch continued its effort to meet the deficit be- tween operational expense and College Body grant. New members of the Executive Board of WESU elected in February were Bill Bagg, Chairman; Bob Derby, Secretary-Treasurer; Jack Willow, Operations Director; and Don Kerr, Technical Director. WESU officers in- cluded Jack Lerner, Chief Announcer; Rich- ard Danger, News Director; Stehbins Nelson, Copy Chief; Vance Smith, Publicity Direc- tor; and Jim Kennedy, Chief of Controlmen. LA TERTULIA was organized this year with the expressed purpose of creating an active interest in Latin-American cultures among the students, while at the same time affording those interested an opportunity to increase their knowledge of the language. The club has met once a month during the year, and although the attendance has been small, those who have attended have shown a real interest in its function. At one of the first meetings Professor Far- ley presented a talk and movies on his trip to Mexico last Summer. Mr. Gerry Page, a stu- dent at New York University spoke to the club some of his experiences at the Univer- sity of Mexico, which he attended last summer. The faculty advisers of the club were Pro- fessors Roura and Farley; its oHicers were N orm Berry, President; Hank Gaviglio, Vice- President; Ralph Jones, Secretary; and Dick Fisher, Treasurer. 74 Seated: Jones, Berry, Gaviglio, Fischer, Prof. Roura. Standing: Noyes, Prof. F arley, Daniels, Sardo, Smith, F ricke. Spanish Club LE CERCLE FRANCAIS was revived this year after a brief disappearance from the campus. Many factors heralded its success. F irst was the presence of a noyau of students interested in speaking French. Second was the fact that two vrai F renchmen participated in its activities. Third was the desire on the part of all the members to make the organi- zation social as well as academic. While a planned theme for every meeting was the byword, there was still enough vin rouge and casual conversation to make the evening pleasant. To ensure the suppleness 0f the club, a more fiuid system of elections was adopted. This year Dick Carrott and J ack Murray were its presidents, and Dick Barrett, now secre- tary, will step into office next year. Unpre- tentious and simple, le Cercle F rancais hopes to see many more years as enjoyable as this one. French C 11117 Sealed: Baudry, Kaminker, Murray, Carrot, Neuman, Tidball.

The programs included talks by Professor Kapp7 Neumann, and Caspari, and a German exchange student. The topics of these discussions dealt mostly with the eco- nomiceand social problems of post-war Ger- many. Under the guidance of Professors Blankenagel, Curts, Gemeinhardt, and Schultz, the Verein has proven of great bene- fit in improving the students9 German conver- sational ability, as well as providing many enjoyable evenings. Membership in the club is open to all stu- dents interested in the German language and culture, and monthly meetings are held in the appropriate atmosphere of the Verein- Zimmer in Winchester House.

Deutsche Verezh 76 THE PRE-MEDICAL Club, organized in 1919, provides a means by which pre-medical students may hear lectures dwelling on par- ticular phases of medical work. This year the thirty-eight members of the Club were under the leadership of Sam Silipo, President: Lee Cassclla, Vice-President; Dave Pl'osvolt, Secretary; and Harry Peck, Treas- urer. Dr. Gortner acted as their faculty ad- visor. Early in the year the club heard an in- teresting: report hy Dr. Kidder on cancer re- seurvh at Amherst. Dr. Buckley of Middle- scx Hospital led a very lively discussion on socialized medicine. A former Secretary- 'ltrcasurer 0f the Pre-Med Club, Dr. J. P. Trinkhuus, 94th who is now teaching.r embry- ology at Yale Medical School, gave an illu- minating talk on the role of hormones as morphogmletic agents. Other speakers were Dr. Broher-k, whose work on ohesity and the hypothalmus were of interest. and Dr. Wlil- son Brown of Columbia Medical School, who spoke of blood production and the causes of anemia.

FOLLOWING THE PRACTICE of the last few yearu. the Rosa Club held monthly meetings at which the members took turns in giving prepared talks on various aspects of Physics. The primary purpose of the organi- zation is to give students taking advanced courses in Physics 3 chance to pursue certain phases of Physics which they might not or- dinarily discuss in the classroom. At one of the meetings Dr. C. Luther Andrews of Albany State Teachers College spoke on micro-wave optics. The club was named in honor of the famous physicist Edmund B. Rosa, who was a former professor here at Wesleyan. Pro- fessor Kari S. Van Dyke served as faculty adviser to the club: Boh Stearns was presi- dent; Cary Gordon, vice-president; and Howard Johnson, secretary-treasurer.

Rosa Club 78 THE A'liWATER CLUB was founded at W'esleyun in order to provide an opportunity for interested students to further their study of chemistry. Membership is open to all men taking advanced chemistry courses as well as faculty members of the department. This yeurQs organization is under the able leadership of Jud Miner, president, Richard Ramottq Vice-president, and Robert Butler, secretary. Dr. Burford is the faculty advisor. One of the most interesting.r lectures the club has heard this year was presented by Mr. Bell, who gave the club men some insight into the workings of the plastics industry. A report of the work or high speed motion picture research at 0RDWES in Windsor Lock was given. Aetna Life Insurance held a discussion concerning their scientific pro- cedures and an interesting movie on gypsum was shown. Later in tho your the American Chemical Society showed a film and the men took a field trip through International Silver Com- pany in W'ailingford.

It is open to all psychology majors who wish to obtain the benefits of outside speakers and movies per- tinent to their interests. The club is re- modelling and refurnishing their old facili- ties in J udd Hall in their drive to enlarge and strengthen the club. The most important change, however, has been the acquisition of the psychology reference books from the 01in Library to form a psychology library. By all appearances, the club should be ex- tremely active and popular in the future. Seated: Hohmeisler, Grant, Teevan, Malcomson, VeroR Standing: Sloat, Mavronatis, Bertini, Knight, Birney, Carta. Raymond Dodge C lub THE INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS CLUB is one of a very large group of organi- zations on college campuses throughout the country whose activities consist of the study of problems of international scope. Many members of the group here at Wesleyan have attended conferences sponsored by interna- tional relations clubs on other college cam- puses. An example of these conferences was the one held by Barnard College on Germany last fall. The International Relations Club con- ducted four of their own programs on the Wesleyan campus during the first semester and three more during the second. These meetings were open to all Wesleyan students. The activities of the Club are directed by a iive-man executive board presided over by the Clubis president, Art Stimson, and aided by their faculty advisor, Professor Mangone. LR. C. Each member of this board takes one par- ticular program as his special project and formulates the plans, procures the speaker, and directs all the activities of his particular program. The high spot of the Club,s activi- ties this year was the college body assembly sponsored by the I.R.C., at which Mr. Fred Schumann of Williams College spoke on Russian Foreign Policy.

The full program of guest speakers and student discussion pro- vided a year of enjoyment and enlightenment for its members. The Club exists primarily for students planning to enter the ministry as well as for those who are merely interested in matters pertaining to religion and ethics. It meets approximately every other week at the home of Mr. Spurrier to discuss problems which the minister may encounter, or problems which confront the Church and Christianity in general. From time to time throughout the year visiting ministers or representatives of var- ious theological schools meet with the group for discussions in a specific field. Advantages of the various theological schools are also discussed for the benefit of the prospective ministers. Pre-Mimkterz'al C Iub 82 Sealed: Smith. Ixuthun. Wisseman. Prof. Standing: Friclwr.

With a membership of twenty, the club participated in debates with about thirty different colleges, including the Vermont, Little Three, Boston University, and New England Regional Tournaments, all of which turned out quite well for Wesleyan. Bob Buckley and Sherwin Montell were the presi- dent and debate manager, respectively, while Mr. John Crawford of the Oral English de- partment served as adviser. The freshmen, coached by Victor Wien- ing, a newcomer to Wesleyan, were also quite active, taking part in the Dartmouth and Ver- mont Tournaments, in addition to numerous debates. The frosh manager was Cleve Schneeberger. Sponsored by the Debating Club, the tra- ditional interfraternity debate tournament, in which all thirteen houses participated, was won by Delta Tau Delta, who thus gained the Debate C Iub first leg on the new cup, just put into compe- tition this year. Delta Sigma Rho, the national honorary debating society, elected six new members this year. They were Sherwin Montell, Charles Shorter, and Bill Schapiro of the class of 1951; and Charles Ellis, Bob Beitzell, and Kin Zachos of the class of 1952.

Glee Club THE MEMBERS of this yearis Glee Club, uhly led by director Vinnie Allison and presi- dent Ralph Bemis, were probably the most widely traveled organization of the Wesleyan community. The. varied engagements 0f the 49-50 season called the Glee Club on two trips to Boston as well as their longest trek 0f the year to W'ashington, D.C. Among the clulfs most enjoyable engage- ments were the concerts presented in colla- boration with three of the womenas colleges of New England. The first was a concert with Wellesley College on their campus in Welles- ley, The second program of this type took place on the Wesleyan campus April fifteenth when the Club com- bined with the Glee Club of Pembroke in the fourth of the series of combined concerts by the two schools.

Two of the outstanding presen- tations 0f the season were the concert broad- cast from 592 Theatre over radio station WTIC of Hartford in the ttSongs of New Eng- land Collegesi7 series and the concert in New York in the Rainbow Room of Radio City. However, the high spot of the year was the trip to XVashington, D.C., where the Club presented a joint concert with the Glee Club of The American University and made an appearance as the guests of the United States Navy Band on their radio program, The Navy Hourf' which was broadcast on a world- wide hook-up. The Cardinals and Jibers, composed of men from the Glee Club, hoth sang at a number of the concerts as well as makingr The Cardi- nals. directed by Student Song Leader Ken Barrett, sang in Wethersfield and at Wood- row Wilson High School in Middletown while the Jihers had engagements at several other several individual appearances. colleges and with various clubs. In the instrumental line, the Wesleyan Band, very ably led by Fred Prentice and Fred Habenicht and managed by Steve Vio- lante and Phil Alden, added zest to the foot- ball games this fall. This is only the Band,s third active year since the war but they have been improving steadily each year. Not only did they play at every football game of the ,49 season except the Bowdoin game, but they also marched a forty-five piece unit on the field at half-time in every instance. Their enthusiasm and spirit have evoked the praises of faculty, students, and alumni; moreover, they promise to return next fall bigger, bet- ter, and resplendent in new uniforms. The 01121 Podrida commends these organi- zations for their fine work during the year and wishes to offer its encouragement to three other up and coming musical groups on the campus: The Cardinal Puffs, The W'esleyan Serenaders, and The Chamber Mu- sic Ensemble.

Through this medium students with theatri- cal leanings have iwvn given ample oppor- tunity to display their abilities. The season was one of variety, productions ranging from a Wilde comedy to a Greek tragedy. Ushoring in the theatrical season was a prowntulion of Oscar Wfildcas I'he Impor- tance uf Being Earnest?7 Under the direc- tion of Ralph Pcmlleton, the effects of wn- tral staging were utilized with the great sur- vcss achieved in last seusoxfs production of Bernard Shqu ' L'undidu.

As a part of the Theater 5-6 program the medieval Christmas play, iiPageant of the Shearman and the Tailors:7 was presented in early December. All acting, production, and direction was done by the members of the Theater 5-6 class with stirring;r results. In February, the Faculty Players, after having been inactive for many years, were revived, and uThe Guardsmanii by Ferenc Molnar was produced by an all faculty cast and production staff. All proceeds from the performances were donated to the Mo De- mopolous Fund. Directed by Gerard Mangone 0f the Government Department and starring Stephen Bailey and Mrs. Theodore Thomas, WThe Guardsmunii initiated anew the pro- gram of faculty presentations.

The major production of this yearis sea- son was the Greek tragedy, itAntigonef by Sophocles tas originally translated by Pro- fessor Theodore Banks of the English De- partmentt. Under the direction of Ralph Pendleton and including a speaking chorus of twelve voices, coached by Victor Wiening, and a danee chorus of eight women, iiAnti- gone was spectacular, distinctive, and very enjoyable. The part of Antigone was excel- lently played by Phyllis Twitchell, while Neil W'hitinlt.r portrayed an impressive Creon. The Paint and Powder Club, in coopera- tion with the 992 Theater, this year featured the revival of the inter-fraternity dramatic contest, inactive since 1931. The program was most sm'eessfuh and plans are already in the making that the contest,he installed as part of this organizationis annual agenda. The Paint and Powder Club is primarily an honorary organization for undergraduates who have shown and continued an active in- terest in the 92 Theater. Its main function is to act as an advisory board to the director of the Theater and to assist in its productions. Officers of the. club this year were James Mun- son, President: Robert Thurln Seeretary. and W'illiam Young. Treasurer. THE OUTING CLUB literally shifted into high gear this season, following the acquisi- tion in May 49 of its 1939 Pontiac-Superior Hearse, whose 22 foot frame hauled loads of merry clubbers t0 outings all over the East- ern Seaboard, providing ample opportunity for instruction in such fine arts as spark-plug testing and distributor repairw-aevery man a mechanic? With the previously ever-present transit problem solved, and having been approved by the College Body in the Fall as a recog- nized campus activity, the Club embarked on an ambitious program of outings.

XVinter found the Club participating reg- ularly in square dances held at various c01- leges in the Connecticut valley, with ski trips scheduled whenever the meagre snowfall permitted. Election of officers in February saw Jay Wylie assume the presidency and Tom Given the treasurership, while Dick Kellom and Walt Fisher became the vice-president and secretary respectively. Highlighting: the spring program was an Easter vacation trip to the Great Smoky Mountains of North Carolina and Tennessee. Further joint outino's ht, together with hiking, t-unoeing, and mountaineering throughout New England, rounded out the seasmfs activities. C hrz'stian Associatzbn THE PURPOSE of the Wesleyan Chris- tian Association is to offer students further knowledge of the Christian faith and its appli- I-utions, as well as 10 provide the means for expressing this faith in everyday life. Month- ly meetings are held following chapel service on Sunday nights, at which time the chapel speaker leads a discussion on some aspect of the Christian faith. Among the activities of the CA is the deputation, led in the past year by Barney Kathan, whereby members go out to load services in various churches. One of the most important additions this year has been the Social Service Committee, which consists of students aiding to provide recreational activities for Middletown youth, in co-operation with the local YMCA. This vommittee was headed by Bruce Young and Greer Nicholl. Throughout the past year, Tuesday night vesper services have been conducted in the chapel, under Don Smith. Seventeen members of the CA attended the annual Northfield conference in East Northfield, Massachusetts, held this past Feb- ruary. At this conference, groups from sev- eral Connecticut Valley colleges discussed current campus and community problems. From this weekend gathering have come many new ideas and improvements which have been added to the CA program. The freshman group of the CA, led by Al Bishop, has had a very active program. OHicers for the past year were the follow- ing: Boh Hammett, President; Barney Kath- an, Vice-President; Ed White, Secretary; and Bob Wonkka, Treasurer. Row one: Prol.

Hopes were high that the squad might extend its 23 game winning streak; coaches Daniels, Wood, and Maze saw such men re- turning as Pete Wichowski, co-captain with Charlie Medd, Neil Keller, and Dan Rober- son; all got in the swing of practice for the game with Bowdoin. Football The hopes were rudely shattered by a charging Polar Bear team, the final score being 26-0. With Benett and Saulter each scoring in the first and last halves, the Cards tasted defeat for the first time in three years. The first home game resulted in the first victory, 12-6, over Coast Guard. The passing 90 attack directed by Charles Medd set up both touchdowns in the first half, Medd going over on a quarter-hack sneak and Velleu on a four yard end run. The second win came the following week, Swarthmorc losing 41-16. With Don JoHray and lim Studwell scoring two touchdowns apiece, the Redbirds were never threatened. Every quarter saw a Wesman cross the goal line, each team scoring twice in the last period. The first Little Three tilt saw Wesleyan lose to Amherst 14-7.

Fooling the pre-game guessers, Wesleyan downed AIC for a 27-14 victory and its third win. The passing of quarterback Medd and plunges by Hicks and Gardner provided the touchdowns. Long runs by Lucas and First- enberger highlighted the second half. AIC scored only in the last quarter. Williams then upended Wes 22-0. With Purple ends blocking the first three Cardinal punts, resulting in 9 points in the first three minutes, Wesleyan never got started. Other SEASONS RECORD WESLEYAN OPPONENT 0 ........

Never in danger, scores by Schlieman, Lucas, and Lang gave the home team its fourth vic- tory and an even season. Captain-elect for next year is guard Neil Keller. Cross- Country With what looked like the best post-war Wesleyan cross country team ready for action, Coach Martin awaited the first meet with Connecticut. Returning were Captain Frank Johnson and lettermen Barney Kathan, Howie Marston, and Jack Pfeiffer, plus such promising sophomores as Tom Soukup and Ken Taylor. The first meet saw the Wesmen edge UConn 26-29, with Johnson and Soukup taking second and third places. The season opened on a successful note when Proud, Taylor and Kathan grabbed sixth through eighth places and the team proved itself ready. Wesleyan then bowed to Springfield'25-32. Although Johnson and Soukup took first and second, the meet was lost when Springfield filled the next five places. Proud and Kathan finished eighth and ninth with Taylor in eleventh place. The second victory of the season was registered at Amherst 27-28. With Amhersfs aces Valentine and Bozarth taking first and third, the victory came as a result of the balance of the Cardinal squad. Johnson, Soukup, Kathan, and Proud finished in the first six to eke out the win. Row one: Manager Gruskay, Ferwerdu, Pfeiffer, Kel- man, Buckingham, Coach Martin. Row two: Proud, Taylor, Kalhan, Johnson, Soukup, Kellom, Crause. The final dual meet of the season was held at Coast Guard and ended in defeat for Wes 19-4-1. The team sorely missed the serv- ices of Frank Johnson, out with a leg injury, and without him could take no more than third place, Soukup gaining that position. Proud and Taylor finished sixth and ninth; In the Little Three meet at Williamstown, Wesleyan could place no better than second, sandwiched between Williams and Amherst. Johnson and Soukup placed third and eighth for the harriers.

Promising freshman like Jim Reap and Lyle Richmond indicated that they would give the veterans a battle for the starting jobs. The first two games of the season at RPI and Union resulted in almost identical de- feats for Wes 63-44, 63-43. The Cardinals seemed to lack any real scoring punch, high man being Robertson with 13 against RPI. At Union, Robertson threw in 18 to lead the squad again. The first home game provided the first victory. A thrilling last minute basket by center Benson giving the 62-60 margin of triumph over Colby. Although Robertson hit for 23 points in the next game, Bowdoin won 70-59. Led by Jordan with 27 points, the Polar Bears led for most of the game.

This poor record was no doubt due to the fact that six lettermen graduated last June and three more this Feb- ruary, leaving the burden to a group of hard- working but inexperienced players. After the first M.I.T., the Wesmen took succesive beatings The next three games with Dartmouth, Yale, and Amherst provided the lowest point of the season for the Wesleyan forces. They were only able to take one game during these three matches, that by Hal Carney over Dartmouth, 3-2. The season closed with a 7-2 defeat by Williams, and a hard-fought but unsuccessful 5-4 match with Trinity. Prospects for next year are better, however.

Fenc ing A highly successful Wesleyan fencing team closed out its season with victories over both Williams and Amherst to take the Little Three Championships and bring their sea- sonis record to a close at seven victories and one defeat. No small measure of this excel- lent record must be awarded to Coach Maury Grasson, whose conscientious efforts have placed the sport in a position of prominence since the War. The season began with a triangular meet in Boston, where the Wesmen were pitted against B. U. and Bowdoin. Both opponents were handsomely defeated by 21-6 and 18-9, respectively. The U. Conns furnished the next bit of opposition and were defeated by a 17-10 score.

The prospects for next year continue good. Captain Jim Peck will be lost through graduation, as will Pete deJanosi, Pete Fernald, Charlie Mc- Donald, Chad Hall, and Wynn Weatover. Such returning veterans as Lou Cargill, Mattie Matienzo, Charlie Rogovin, and Mike Rosenbluth, with help expected from the in- coming freshmen, will again be looking to de- fend their Little Three title, which they have held since 1939.

Next, Williams was beaten for the first of two times, 16-11, giving the fencers an unblemished record of five straight wins. The first loss of the season was absorbed at the hands of Yale, 17-10. The match was exceedingly close, but an overwhelming triumph in the sabre division gave the Elis the victory.

IOVZ WON 7 LOST 1 S wimming With Captain Roger Taylor leading the returning lettermen and a strong group of promising sophomores, the pre-season out- look for this yearis tank team was still only fair. With graduation having thinned the ranks of the Wesmen, Coach Hugh McCurdy had his work cut out for him; nevertheless, all plunged into preparation for the first meet. The season opened the campaign with a loss to MIT 52-23. Despite firsts by Taylor and Stevens, the balance of the oppositionls squad proved to be the deciding factor. The second meet of the year proved to be a complete turnahout, with Wes dunking the Univ. of Massachusetts 55-20. Taylor again captured the diving event7 while Barth, Wel- ling, Stevens, and Morris took firsts in their events. The Tufts meet saw Wesleyan lose its sec- ond of the season 41-34. The two Wes dis- qualifications decided the meet, while Taylor, Stevens, McCallum and Morris took firsts. Springfield then defeated the Redmen 46-29 as only Stevens and Taylor could win, the latter taking firsts in two events. With Stevens being disqualified for aca- demic reasons, the weakening of the Cardinal squad showed up in the next meet which was lost to Bowdoin 43-27.

This contest saw only Barth win for the Wesmen as Captain Taylor lost his first and only diving event of the year. In the seasonis windup, Trinity downed the Cardinals 46-22. Taylor and Welling led the squad with firsts in their respective events. Honors were won by Captain Taylor when he won the New England Diving Champion- ship. With only Taylor being lost through grad- uation, the Wesleyan squad has. a very strong group of veterans returning.

With experienced wrestlers in every division, hopes were high for a good season. The first two matches resulted in one win and one loss for the matmen, Coast Guard taking the measure of the Wes team 17-9 while MIT was defeated 18-6. In both matches Keller and Wichowski were outstanding. The closestmatch of the year was then won by W'es 14-13 in defeating Springfield. Wichowski, Dolph and Beck set the pace for the Cardinals. The next two matches resulted in losses to Tufts 16-14 and Brown 20-7. The match with Tufts was very close, while only Wichowski could win at Brown. The first Little Three match went to Am- herst 24-4 as Keller and Witchowski only managed to tie.

Baseball Despite the return of such veterans as Captain Dick Oviatt, iiRabbitt,7 Wilson and Prince Hurd in the infield, tiFrosty Francis 0n the mound, and outfielders Dan Robertson and Charlie Medd, the ball team disappointed pre-season prophets. The spring southern trip resulted in two wins and three defeats for Wes7 the highlight being performances by sophs Jones, Demmer, Gaviglio, and Spencer. The Redbird losing streak was extended to four games when the New Britain Teachers rapped out 13 hits for an 8-1 victory in the initial home game. The first official win came at the expense of MIT with the relief hurler Herb Phelon receiving credit for the 10-7 triumph. Next the brilliant four hit per- formance of Francis and the second win of the year came to Wes at the expense of 102 Brown, 4-2. A three game losing streak was then brought to a halt in the first Little Three game. The Cardinals, sparked by the two hit hurling of Francis and Oviattis prefect day at the plate, set back Amherst 7-0. In the next win of the spring, the Cards took advantage of shoddy Trinity pitching to coast to an 11-3 victory. After the second four game losing streak of the season, the schedule was ended on two highly successful notes with defeats of Wil- liams 4-2 and Yale 5-4. The latter was a de- cided upset and the inspirational performance of Francis provided the one run margin. Returning veterans this year included Captain Francis, Jones, Daniels, Gaviglio, and Spencer. WESLEYAN OPPONENTS SEASONS RECORD 7 .................. American U ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, 5 18 iiiaue . .

Their efforts were centered around the football season, when they led cheers at the home and away games, and con- tributed to pre-game rallies. The cheer- leaders were led by Dick Knight, and the crew included Rog Taylor, Ferg Alleman, and Jim Stetler. Seen above are Pete Crowell, Bob Fekety7 and Bob Dilts, resting in Fayer- weather Gym after a pre-game practice. T rack The Wesleyan track team, under the skill- ful guidance of ttFritz Martin, recovered from a slow start to wind up with a respect- ahle seasonvs mark of four victories and three defeats. The team was led hy Captain Bill Brooks, Frank Johnson7 Bill Johnson7 and Don Joffruy. Brooks, considered by many to he the greatest sprinter in Wesleyan history, set new records in both the 100 and 220 yard dashes covering the century in 9.7 seconds and the latter in 21.3 seconds, a full half- second faster than the previous mark around the curve. In addition7 Brooks won the 100 and placed second in the 220 at the New Eng- lands, and was second only to Andy Stanfield of Seton Hall College in the LC, A.A.A.A. meet held on Randallts Island. Also, he com- peted through his entire college carrer with- out ever suffering defeat in dual competition. A host of other records fell during the season. Frank Johnson ran the two-mile in 9:513 against Amherst. JoHray heaved the shot 4321A against Coast Guard, and Bill Johnson tossed the hammer 157 feet in the New Englands to establish another record.

The first match resulted in a 5-4 setback at the hands of a strong Connecticut team. The Redmen had only a few days of outdoor play, and this lack of practice showed in a very close contest. The first Cardinal victory was gained over Bowdoin 5-4. Led by Hank Salaun and Cap- tain George Buschmann, the home team earned its victory in this hard-fought en- counter. The next three matches all registered losses for Wes. At Springfield, only Salaun could win, and the Cardinals went down 8-1. The match at Harvard was the most exciting of the year with the Crimson winning 515-315.
