The theme, Year ' round , attempts to provide a review of the events which take place on campus around the calendar — events which are a part of the yearly agenda. Though changes are being made constantly, certain parts of college life remain year after year to become traditional, and from the commencement of school in the fall until its closing in the spring, these traditions are unfolding. Even this year when we were again facing a world crisis and many students were leaving for service, we attempted to continue our annual activities. It has been our purpose to perpetuate these events in your memory with pictures and stories, so that in future years you may vividly recall the dances, the clubs, the games, and the students that were, and always will be, Western.

A stage show provided the intermission entertainment. The ballroom was again the scene of the annual all-student Christmas party sponsored by the Student Council. For the second time, campus organizations donated various sums to finance this Yuletide event. Admission to the party was granted to those students who presented some item of food at the door. Later the food was given to the Salvation Army for distribution. Dancing and community singing, as well as a stage show, provided entertainment and Christmas spirit. CHRISTMAS PARTY 18 ASSEMBLIES Dr. Walter White Featured speaker of Western ' s first assembly was Mr. David E. Lilienthal, former Chairman of the U. S. Atomic Energy Commission, and former Chairman of the TVA. The famous team of La Meri and Di Falco presented a program of Dances of Many Lands on November 8. The Welfare State was the subject of a lecture given by Senator Paul Douglas. Brotherhood month was marked by a speech by Dr. Walter White, Executive Sec- retary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. Students heard Trinidad-born Hazel Scott present her varied musical concert on April 5. la Meri and Di Falco Bill Condon, John Hromeic, Joyce Passon, Eugene Boyd. Ray Norberg, Howard Ball, Herbert Hes The 1951 Brown and Gold Fantasies were held at Central High School Auditorium April 27 and 28 for the sixth consecutive year.

SANGREN WESTERN ' S PRESIDENT To the Staff of the Brown and Gold: Again in 1951, the staff of the Brown and Gold has come forth with an excellent production. This 1951 Brown and Gold provides a first-class summary of the important student activities on the campus during the past year. It contains informative and interesting items which students will be happy to recall. Please accept the hearty congratulations and sincere compliments from the members of the staff of Western Michigan College. PAUL V. SANGREN, President ADMINISTRATION 22 Dr. Wynand Wichers The 1950-1951 school year has brought with it still more additions to Western ' s campus. Dr. Wynand Wichers, who is com- pleting his sixth year as Vice-president, has again given of his time and cooperation that the expansion program of the college might be a continuing success. John C. Hoekje The position of Dean of Administration is one of much responsibility. But despite his time-consuming duties of supervising regis- trations, of furthering Western ' s athletic sys- tem, and of heading many committees, Mr. John C. Hoekje is always ready to consult with students on their problems and to give them special guidance. Leonard Gernant The supervision of the records office is the job that falls to Mr. Leonard Gernant as Assistant Registrar. The recording of grades, scholastic ratings, and other information about each student at Western is under his direction. In addition, he assists the Dean of Administration with many of the problems of registration. Cornelius MacDonald To Mr. Cornelius MacDonald goes the title of college comptroller and the task of keeping the books straight. It is his job to direct the work of the comptroller ' s office which handles all financial matters pertain- ing to Western. Vern E. Mabie It is the duty of Mr. Vern Mabie to help graduating students with one of their major concerns — that of finding work. As Director of Placement and Alumni Relations, he helps not only prospective teachers to find posi- tions but students in other curriculums as well. Mr. Mabie also has charge of work concerning the alumni relations of the college. Dr. Elizabeth Lichty Despite the numerous duties which are her responsibilities as Dean of Women, Dr. Elizabeth Lichty is always ready to give friendly advice to the girls on West- ern ' s campus. Now completing her fourth year as Dean of Women, Miss Lichty has continued her practice of having get acquainted chats with the freshmen women. Ray C. Pellett Mr. Ray C. Pellett exhibits his stride which is as characteristic of his walk as his friendly attitude is characteristic of the way he faces his job as Dean of Men. During his years of service in this capacity, Mr. Pellett has maintained close contact with the men at Western by helping to solve their housing situations and other vital problems. 24 Dr. Deyo Fox Until his untimely death in January, 1951, the late Dr. Deyo Fox held the office of Director of Vocational Education. He w as also the head of the industrial education department. In the former position, it was his task to coordinate the functions of the various departments within that division and to consult with vocational students regarding their problems. Dr. Elmer H. Wilds Graduate students receive aid in planning their programs through the help of Dr. Elmer H. Wilds, Director of the Graduate Division and Summer Sessions. Under his supervision the administrative work of the summer school program is carried out. Dr. George H. Hilliard The counseling department is one of the busiest on campus, and so it is that Dr. George H. Hilliard, Director of Student Per- sonnel and Guidance, is one of the busiest administrators at Western. It is his duty to oversee all matters which pertain to the col- lege work of freshmen and seniors alike, and to serve as counselor in any way possible. Dr. James Griggs In planning the training program for pros- pective teachers, Dr. James Griggs, Director of Teacher Education, works closely with instructors of that department. The schedul- ing of practice teaching assignments also falls under his supervision. In addition, Dr. Griggs counsels students on any problems which arise in connection with their practice teaching. In Dedication . . . DR. JAMES O. KNAUSS The staff of the 1951 Brown and Gold proudly dedicates this book to Dr. James O. Knauss who has served on the faculty of Western for twenty-five years. Dr. Knauss, head of the history department, received his A.B. degree from Lehigh University, his A.M. from Harvard, and his Ph.D. from Cornell University. He came to Western in 1926 from Florida State College for Women. Noted for his genial good humor and informality, Dr. Knauss is well known as a popular instructor. His many classes are always well filled with students. His interesting lectures and his insistence upon good work on the part of students have made him one of the best liked instructors on campus. In the community too, Dr. Knauss is recognized as an outstanding person. He is active in many organizations and activities. He has served as president of the Michigan Historical Commission and the Kalamazoo Kiwanis Club. He has written a great many articles for historical publications throughout the country. He is recognized by colleagues and students, old and new, as a fine instructor and a friend. 26 1 ROBERT PETERSON STUDENT PRESIDENT I believe that throughout this past year Student Council, although confronted with the effects of a large turnover of personnel, through conscientious efforts, has given the students a satisfactory governing body. Council has been fortunate that a friendly cooperative spirit existed in the group throughout the year. Our main objective concerned the problems and needs confronting the student. If we have progressed toward the fulfillment of this objective we have attained a great measure of success. Robert Peterson, President Student Association. 28 STUDENT COUNCIL Gordon Solomonson, treasurer; Wilma Penno, secretary; Harriet Corwin, vice-president. Robert Peterson undertook the presidential duties following the resignation of President Robert McBride early in the school year. Harriet Corwin was elected to the vice-presidency left vacant by Robert Peterson ' s advancement. In February Harriet offered her resignation, and Don Burge took over her position. Under the leadership of Robert Peterson the Council was able to accomplish many important improvements in student government. One of these achievements was the completion and acceptance of the By-Laws for the Student Association Con- stitution. This was done under the guidance of John Bigelow, chairman of the By-Laws Committee. Don Burge, publicity director until February, compiled, edited, and published two booklets for the student body. The first was the Bronco Book, a publication primarily intended for new students arriving at Western, and the other was the Student- Faculty Directory. John Bigelow, who took over the publicity director ' s position, handled the Spring elections. Al Lincoln, auditor, John Bigelow, parlia- mentarian, Don Burge, publicity director. 29 Jim Clarke, Janet MacDonald, John Post, John Dunn Petzke, Sally Gordon, Norb Vandersteen The Student Leadership Committee, under the chairmanship of Roy Wise, presented the third annual Leadership Conference held October 17, 1950. The main speakers for the evening were Mr. Harold Spicher, president of the Alumni Association, and Mr. John Bright, past president of the Student Association. Officers of all student organizations met in the Ballroom for a buffet dinner followed by a general session in the Little Theater. After the general session there was a panel discussion for the presidents and the faculty sponsors, while the remaining members split into sectional meetings according to their offices. Here instructions were given to help them better understand and carry out the duties of their respective posts. Roy Wise was also responsible for the forming of the Presidents ' Group. Ken Gray assumed the duties of chairmanship upon the resignation of Roy Wise. Under his direction, the Leadership Committee undertook the task of promoting better leadership in the Freshman class, Gerald Dannenberg, Morris Richman, Betty Hansen. Barbara Bliss, Larry Lancaster, Lois Dannenberg. to STUDENT COUNCIL Norm Haas, Ed DeGalan, Dave Marks. Diane Brown, Jane Bouwman, Ted Dickerson. Many other activities came under the guidance of the Student Council. Brown and Gold Fantasies producer Bill Condon was appointed by President Peterson. Gordon Solomonson was appointed Council treasurer after Jim Morgan ' s resignation. The All-Student Dances and the Brown and Gold Fantasies were sponsored by Council. One-hundred and forty dollars in cash and numerous boxes of staple foods, proceeds from the Christmas Dance, were given to the Salvation Army. Council also gave twenty-five dollars to the Snack Bar to help pay for the free coffee given away on Hoedown Day. President Paul Sangren, appeared before Student Council to advise and inform the Council on the problems unique to this campus. One of these discussions was light- ing for the new campus. The Administration and Council co-operated in obtaining lights on Vande Giessen road and on West Michigan Avenue between the old and new campuses. Student government In action JERILEE DENISON Editor-in-chief JOHN BIGELOW Business Manager With her inauguration as Editor-in-chief of the Brown and Gold in May 1950, Jerilee Denison began plans for the 1951 edition of the yearbook. Bids and con- tracts from commercial companies for the production phases of the book were handled early in the summer. A design for the cover was decided upon and put into production. The opening sections was designed about a Year ' round theme, which was to depict the events which occur throughout the year at Western. Plans were begun for layouts and the yearbook was underway! John Bigelow, business manager, handled the financial matters of the book. The problem of setting up a budget, keeping the books, selling pages to organizations, and planning advertising took many hours of his time. He was assisted by Associate Business Manager Morrie Richman, who upon John ' s resignation in March became business manager. Also on the business staff was Eddy Dow, who spent long hours out in the business world selling ads. BROWN AND GOLD 32 BEVERLY AUSTIN Associate Editor MORRIE RICHMAN Associate Business Manager JOAN GUILLAUME Literary Editor A great deal of credit goes to Associate Editor Beverly Austin who contributed many fine ideas and many hours of work. She aided Jerilee throughout the year with the various phases of the book. The man behind the camera, who provided the pictorial side of the Brown and Gold, was Howard Englesby. He could be found snapping pictures around campus or working in the Publication ' s darkroom. The art work was done by Jini Sprietsma, art editor, who was responsible for the division pages, introduction pages and inside cover sheets. She was aided by Ken Earle who drew the little figures used in the organization section and many of the fraternity crests. Joan Guillaume, literary editor, turned out hundreds of words of copy for the annual. She edited all copy in the organization section. Sports Editor Charlie Beyrer spent the year covering games and assembling sports material. He scheduled spcrts pictures, wrote sports copy, and aided the editor with the layout of the athletic section of the book.

Albina Kamsickas, Mary Barnun Much of the typing for the annual was done by Albina Kamsickas and Jeanette Trattles. Grace Davis accompanied the photographer on his rounds of organization pictures taking identification. Martha Schuhardt, Nancy Anderson, Marian DuMond, Mary Barnijm, Fay Porter, and Alice Young aided the editor with many of the detail jobs that go into the make-up of the yearbook such as signing up students for photos, alphabetizing and typing class lists, indexing, and distributing books. It was only with the cooperation of all staff members throughout the year, who gave of their time and efforts, that this comprehensive record of the year at Western was possible.

CONNIE ONGLEY Editor-in-Chief PAUL KRUZEL BOB DENISON Business Managers Continuing its policy of transmitting to the students and faculty of Western a complete coverage of campus news, informative features and interpretive editorials the Herald has marked another successful year as an entirely student operated paper. The duties of editor-in-chief fell to Connie Ongley, who was appointed to the position in May 1950. Connie had served as associate editor for two years and was well experienced with all phases of publishing the college paper. John Hungerford was appointed business manager but left school shortly after the beginning of the first semester when his Marine reserve unit was called into active duty. The vacant position was then filled by Robert Denison who served through the first semester after which he left prior to entering service. Paul Kruzel assumed the duties of business manager the second semester handling the financial matters for the paper through the remainder of the year. HERALD 35 Norb Antosiak served as associate editor first semester Marian DuMond, Chuck Mefford, Irene Kubovich. Norbert Antosiak and Ronald Denison, first semester associate editor and news editor respectively, were valuable aides to Connie in the publication of the Herald. Nancy Savage replaced Ronald as news editor in the second semester when he went into the Merchant Marine. The feature page was ably handled by Feature Editor Chuck Mefford who was assisted by Irene Kubovich in the spring semester. Chuck worked many hours to provide an informative and entertaining feature page. Sports Editor Bill Yena and his staff did an excellent job in the sports department. Bill ' s column of predictions and reports on college games throughout the country and local and district games proved a success with the many sports readers. Pictures were provided by Howard Englesby, staff photographer, who covered the news, social, and sports events of the campus so that a pictorial review of college activities was possible each week. The task of distributing and mailing the Herald each week belonged to Marian DuMond, circulation editor. Charlie Beyrer, Gene Clysdole, Bill Yena, Pete Clausen.

The Men ' s Union started off the year with its annual Homecoming frosh-soph battles which the freshmen won by a wide margin. A series of six open houses was scheduled at regular intervals throughout the year. The governing board of the Union decided to have fewer open houses this year in order to make them bigger, better, and more enjoyable. Highlighting the Thursday evening gatherings was one held in honor of and in conjunction with Kalamazoo College. As a part of their activities as representatives of all male students at Western, the members of the Men ' s Union Board attended a convention of Unions and Women ' s Leagues from all colleges and universities in the state. The University of Michigan was the scene of the meeting, at which many of the problems confronting all such organizations were discussed, and possible solutions recommended. In the spring some 200 colleges, including Western, were represented at a national convention at Michigan State College. MEN ' S UNION 38 A game of pool provides relaxation for a few mem- bers of the Men ' s Union. During the course of the year, the organization made several purchases to better the facilities in the Union building. A new television set was installed in the game room for the members ' use. In addition to this convenience, a new public address system was put into operation. The Union also purchased an embossograph or sign- making machine. At the close of the year the Men ' s Union sponsored its biggest undertaking, the Cotillion Ball, which was again one of the oustanding dances of the school year. The annual frosh-soph contests were among the events sponsored by the Mens Union at Homecoming. Thursday evening open houses continued to find students lining up for food and fun. Burnell Richardson, Fred Theide, Frank Fry, Bob Dunham, Joe Brooks, Reuben Merritt, Don Burge. Inter-fraternity Council has had another busy year promoting cooperation among the different fraternities on campus. Assisting the fraternities with their problems and furthering friendships among the members, are two of the aims of the Inter- fraternity Council. Its membership is composed of two representatives from each social fraternity on campus, who work to promote greater cooperation among the fraternities. This cooperation is seen in the rush parties held each semester under the auspices of the Council. Pledging duties and initiation proceedings of the individual fratern- ities are in part regulated by this representative body. In addition to this function the Council sponsored the contest for Homecoming queen, obtaining civic leaders as judges, and securing prizes from local merchants for the queen and her court. The constitution of the Council with its additions and revisions had its final ratifica- tion this year. Inter-fraternity Council entertained candi- dates for Homecoming Queen at the banquet which preceded the selection contests. INTER-FRATERNITY COUNCIL 40 Ed DeGalan, Doug Halverson, Howard Ball, Robert Peterson, Don Morganthaler, Ted Wank, Neville Lewis, Bill Dolphiede. Awards were given to individual fraternities for winning intramural fraternity league championships in football, basketball, softball, and track. A special award was given to the Outstanding Fraternity Man of the Year at the senior convoca- tion assembly in the spring. Edward DeGalan presided over the group for the past year, and was assisted by Jim Watson and Fred Thiede, vice-presidents for the first and second semesters respectively. Carl Horan was secretary, and Douglas Halverson, treasurer. Dr. Donald Forgays and Mr. Herb Jones acted as sponsors. Sigma Tau Gamma received the scholarship cup for high scholastic standing this year. Dick Barron accepts the cup for his fraternity from Arnie Anderson of Theta Chi Delta. 41 William Geiger, George Carrigan, Craig Robinson, Robert Michielsen, Allen Fritchie, Vern Morse, Richard Johnson, Howard Ball, Hamilton McCallum, Richard Buck, John Brissaud, Ray Rathka, Parnell Tardy, Doug Halverson. In November, 1949, a new social fraternity joined the roster of Western Michigan College ' s men ' s organizations. Originally composed of men living on the ground floor of Burnham Hall, the fraternity tcok its name from the first letters of the Burnham Basement Boys ' group, and Beta Beta Beta was begun. Return of the Native was the theme of the first dance ever sponsored by Tri Beta. Among other activities of the frat was participation in the Homecoming parade, with the longest float of the procession. Tri Beta won the Inter-fraternity football championship. President Richard Michielsen had as his aides Vice-president John Brissaud, Sec- retary Parnell Tardy, and Tr easurer Ray Rathka. Mr. Leroy Myers and Mr. Norman Russell sponsored the organization.

Gamma Beta Chapter of Kappa Alpha Psi was organized on Western ' s campus in January 1948 with the fundamental purpose of promoting achievement among its members and providing a healthy social and intellectual life for its members. Enter- tainment during the past term consisted of weiner roasts, parties, and toboggan parties. The annual Brotherhood program of Kappa Alpha Psi was presented during Brotherhood week in February 1951. An initiation banquet was given for six new members in the fall. Officers of Gamma Beta Chapter were as follows: Carl Lewis, polemarch; Donald Wesley, vice polemarch; David Robinson, keeper of records; Michael Mitchell, ex- chequer; and J. Neville Lewis, strategus. Sponsors were Dr. Chester L. Hunt and Mr. James Boynton. KAPPA ALPHA PSI 43 Back row: Norm Pither, Robert Foust, Doug McGarvey, Bernard Green, Ralph Monk.

Delta Sigma Phi members clc Academy Street as their nev Western Michigan ' s Beta Tau Chapter of Delta Sigma Phi, national fraternity, achieved a long sought goal this past year. That goal was a fraternity house, something which had been the aim of the local chapter since they had affiliated with the large national organization. Located at 529 Academy Street, the Delta Sigma Phi fraternity house was the scene of much activity, throughout both semesters. First on the list of social events for the Delta Sig ' s was the annual Carnation Ball with Pat Chamberlain chosen and crowned queen for the year. With the arrival of Homecoming, the chapter celebrated by decorating their fraternity house, entering a float in the parade, and welcoming alumni. Beta Tau also had representatives at three large national conclaves, including the annual Founder ' s Day Banquet at Jackson. Other social activities were Mother ' s and Dad ' s days, formal initiation and installation banquets, as well as house parties. One of about seventy chapters in United States and Canada, Western ' s Beta Tau chapter finished the year with sixty active members. The goal of Delta Sigma Phi is to give its members intimate, beneficent fellowship with good men, and to supplement their cultural and professional education with training for citizenship and leadership. Richard Williams served as president this year. Other officers were Bill Gallagher and Norbert Vandersteen, vice-presidents; Les Spaulding, secretary; Charles Mef- ford, treasurer; and Pat Fisher, house manager. Dr. George Hilliard served as faculty sponsor. Queen Pat Chamberlain and escort Jim Payson lead off at the Carnation Ball. 45 KAPPA SIGMA KAPPA Jeanne Hipp was chos Sweetheart of 1951. ' Kappa Sigs Michigan Gamma chapter of the international fraternity, Kappa Sigma Kappa, founded in 1 867, has completed another year of activities based on its aim of teaching men to live successfully in a group. The first big function of the school year was the Homecoming Banquet on Nov- ember 4, honoring the returning alumni members. A month later, Kappa Sigma Kappa held their fall initiation banquet at which the fall pledges were awarded their membership degrees. Aside from these two events, there was at least one other fraternity-sponsored social event each month during the first semester, ranging from picnics to scavenger hunts. The month of December found the men of Kappa Sigma Kappa busy with their annual Christmas tree sale. The proceeds from this year ' s sale were high and the men were able to deposit a sizeable sum in the fraternity building fund. The Kappa Sigma Kappa sixth annual Sweetheart Ball opened the formal social activities of the campus in the second semester. Over 400 people spent the evening of February 24 amidst an atmosphere of hearts and flowers built along the tra- ditional sweetheart theme. The fraternity presented on this evening their Sweet- heart of 1951, Jeanne Hipp. The frat members direct their attention to maneuvering their float in the Home- coming parade. 46 Dave Kistler, Jack Mori, Bob Crossly, Dick Powers, Jim Willette, Bob Linders, Walt Redman, Hulbert Boettcher, Bill Dopheide.

This event furnishes the members with an incentive to keep their academic standing up, because if their point hour ratio falls below the standard set by the fraternity, they must eat mush at this banquet. The spring pledge class was honored at the formal initiation banquet in May. Between these events, the members attended monthly parties of an informal nature. Each semester ' s pledge class performed some service for the school and the student body. The fall pledge class cleared the walks around the new women ' s dormitories after one of our heavy snow storms last winter. The officers for the year were: Bill Dopheide, president; Jim Willette, vice-president; Walter Redmond, secretary, and Hulbert Boettcher, treasurer. Assuming the duties of vice-president and treasurer for the second semester were Dave Kistler and Robert Claeys respectively. Dr. J. William Cundiff and Mr. Herbert Thompson served as faculty advisors. 47 Dean Tyndall, Burnell Richardson, Ken Price, Paul Oliepka, Ted Watt, Joe Weatherwox, Bill Anderson, Gerald Lewis, Ron Cole.

From the month of its local establishment in December, 1949, when fourteen charter members were formally initiated at a banquet in the Burdick Hotel, Beta chapter of Sigma Alpha Delta steadily increased its membership and its activities. Founded to promote fellowship, leadership, and scholastic achievement, the fratern- ity expanded its aims to include athletics and social functions. Feeling the need for a pre-holiday formal, the local chapter staged its first Christmas Ball in December, 1950. It was later decided by the group to make this semi-formal affair an annual event. SIGMA ALPHA DELTA 48 Sigma Alpha Delta won first prize for originality with its initial entry into the Homecoming float competition. Besides taking an active part in intramural athletics and sponsoring numerous informal gatherings and picnics, the organization sent two delegates to the Sigma Alpha Delta national conclave. Officers for the year included: Gerald Lewis, president; Jordon Humberstone, vice- president; Theodore Watt, secretary; and George Howe, treasurer. Mr. Donald Martin and Dr. Samuel Clark were the faculty sponsors. The Sigma Alpha Delta hen lays for Homecoming spectators.

This function has been made an annual event — to be held the Sunday afternoon of Registration week every fall. Rushing and pledging was carried on as usual. The fraternity gained nine new members in the fall semester, and nineteen in the spring semester. The highlight of the pledge season occurred when two informal initiations were held instead of one. SIGMA TAU GAMMA 50 Homecoming weekend arrived, and with it came the annual Homecoming Stag Dinner for members and alumni of the chapter. In the spring the annual White Rose Formal dinner dance in honor of the Sigma Tau Gamma sweethearts was a special event. Officers for the year were Dick Barron, president; George Walton, vice-president; John Dunn, secretary; and Phil Harris, treasurer. Sig Taus serenade the dorms with Christmas carols. The frat house recreation room provides the setting for the Halloween Party.

Theta Chi Delta had an active membership of forty-six during the past year. In- cluded were nine new members added to the fraternity during the fall semester. Furthering good fellowship was one of the main purposes of the organization, and in carrying out this aim, some of the social events held this year were the alumni banquet at Homecoming time, the annual dinner dance, and the all-student party, ' The Final Fling. Miss Kay Kalhorn, Homecoming queen, was sponsored by Theta Chi. Arnie Anderson served the fraternity as president, and was assisted by Art George, vice-president; Tom Willoughby, treasurer; Gerry Falardeau, recording secretary; and Chuck Chase, corresponding secretary.

Important social events on Arista ' s calendar this past year included the annual Homecoming Breakfast for alumnae, the traditional chocolate in honor of high scholarship sophomore women, and an informal spring dance for all students. Among Arista ' s many service activities for the year were the publication of a bul- letin for all campus social chairmen, the filing and making available the Student Council class cards to all organizations for general use, and help in handling the publicity campaign for the World Student Service Fund Drive.

In December the members formed a part of the massed chorus for the annual presentation of George Friedrich Handel ' s Messiah. The choir joined the Kalamazoo symphony for the performance of the Requiem by Guiseppi Verdi, given in March. This work was given again when the choir made a two-day trip to Midland, Michigan. Joining with the high schools of this area the members presented the May Festival as their final performance. Officers of the year were: David Castetter, president; Ralph Rauch, vice-president; Nanine Landis, secretary-treasurer; Millicent Miiburn and Donald Owen, librarians.

Western ' s 100-piece marching band this year played for all the home football games, the Homecoming parade, and took a trip to Oxford, Ohio, to play for the Miami-Western football game. During the basketball season, the band was divided into two groups to alternate in playing for the home games. The highlight of the year was the Sixth Annual Winter Band Concert. Dr. Edwin Franko Goldman, world famous band conductor and composer, was guest con- ductor. Dr. Goldman praised Western ' s band and its director highly, stating that this band need not take a back seat to any college band in the country. The many hours of rehearsals paid off dividends in a successful concert. 86 BAND During the spring months, the band presented several out-of-town concerts, broad- casts, and the annual Spring Concert on the library steps. Several members of the band were soloists and formed small ensembles for these concerts. For their final appearance, the band played for the commencement program. Officers for the year were Donald Bothwell, president; Floyd Billard, vice-president; and Doris King, secretary-treasurer.

Mr. Stulberg directs the orchestra during rehearsal. Western Michigan College Symphony Orchestra, under the direction of Mr. Julius Stulberg, presented two concerts during the school year 1950-51, maintaining its reputation for fine performances of outstanding orchestral literature. Its membership is composed of music majors and minors, but anyone playing an orchestral instru- ment is welcomed to the group. The first concert, December 6, was an all orchestral program; while the second concert on April 26, featured Marie Sedlon, violinist, playing the Wieniawski Concerto in D AAinor. The literature ranged from Couperin and Corelli to Abram Chasins. Western ' s orchestra visited high schools in the area also. Small groups composed of orchestral members presented special programs in the city and surrounding areas. The Messiah orchestra also was formed from Western ' s symphony group. Two social events took place, a weiner roast at the Stulberg ' s home in the Fall, and a picnic in the Spring.

Pledges become new members at formal initiation. Its portrait and caricature booth at the annual student carnival opened the year ' s activities for the Art Club. In October, freshmen and prospective members were guests of the club at the traditional welcome party. At this time they were intro- duced to the members, and were told of the goals and the ideals of the organization. At Homecoming time the Chat ' n Chew for alumni and the dedication of the new girls ' dormitory in honor of the art department ' s Miss Siedschlag were festive events for the club. The committee ' s work on the float was in vain, for last minute engine trouble prevented its appearance in the parade. New members were initiated during a candle-light ceremony in November. Climax of the semester was the Christmas party at the Hefner Hovel. Hiking preceded the winter picnic, where Mr. Hefner served as chief chef. The gift exchange was presided over by Mr. Kemper in his role of a modernistic Santa Claus. Activities for the new year included a January lecture by Mr. Zack York, who chose as his subject Scenic Design. In a February meeting Mr. Kemper displayed some of his paintings, and told the stories behind their creation. Mr. Harry Willets, who directed the creation of the stained-glass windows for the new chapel, spoke to the group at the March meeting. He explained the technique from design through various stages to the finished stained-glass window. In April art clubbers sponsored their annual art show in conjunction with Western ' s com- parative arts program. Among other activities was the banquet with a well-known artist as guest speaker. The club also held a sale of hand-made objects, ranging from ceramicware and jewelry, to wood-carving and painting. The year ended with the annual picnic in May. The faculty sponsors, Miss Lydia Siedschlag, Miss Hazel Paden, Miss Elaine Stevenson, Mr. John Kemper, and Mr. Harry Hefner, were hosts to the members at that event.

The highlight of the Freshman year at Bronson School of Nursing is the Capping ceremony, held for those who successfully complete the first semester. Requirements for being capped are passing the courses taken at Western — with which the Bronson School of Nursing is affiliated — and possessing the capacities of a nurse, determined by classes and demonstrations on the floor at the hospital. The highest symbols of the nursing profession are personified by the cap and the lamp which the student nurse lights from that of Florence Nightingale. Besides the B.S. degree given by Western to the five-year students, there is co- operation between the schools in other ways. Student activity tickets are available to all Freshmen — Western honors the nurses identification cards of Juniors and Seniors at their student assemblies. The Modern Dance Club and the Bronson Choir have a joint assembly in the spring, and a program, Bronson Night , is given each year for Student Fellowship. 96 Registered nurses hold a welcoming tea for freshman students. Bronson Nurses sponsor a King for a Day at He coming. BRONSON NURSES Early morning duties include checking of supplies, setting up medications, and the never-ending cleaning.

Now in its sixth year on campus, the Occupational Therapy Club is serving students from eighteen states, China, and Puerto Rico. The aim of the club is to promote professional interest through programs, discussions, lectures, and movies in the field of occupational therapy and related medical subjects. By bringing students of similar interests into this informal group, it affords its members the opportunity to become better acquainted and to compare like interests and problems. With the opening of the fall semester, the club was on hand with a booth at the student carnival selling doll lapel pins. The club sponsored its annual Christmas and spring sales, featuring articles made by the club members. The OT club participated in the Homecoming activities by entering a float in the parade.

The year started off with a few introductory sessions, mostly social, but some with business and discussions included. The common background in language and cus- toms shared by members of the group helped the old as well as new members to make friends. Those familiar with American ways were able to help the newer members as they faced problems already met by the others.

Siedschlag Hall, named after Miss Lydia Siedschlag of Western ' s art department, officially began its first year of occupancy with its dedication during Homecoming week-end. Homecoming week-end also climaxed the hours of work on the float, which was a dog show with Sangren ' s Prize Pup completely outdoing a dejected- looking Butler bulldog; and on the display, in which a baby-bonneted Bronco sat with scissors and a long string of carboard bulldogs — Cutting out Bulldogs is Child ' s Play. Also in the fall Draper-Siedschlag was the scene of a coffee at which Kalamazoo College women were entertained. Girls relax and gossip in the restful atmosphere of the new lounge. 142 Morning, noon and night Siedschlag girls file through the lines and dine in the new cafeteria. The Key to the Kingdoms was presented to all Westernites who attended the first open house. Guests danced to the music of Siedschlag ' s own all-girl orchestra among star-lit clouds in the Upper Kingdom , while pitchforks and flaming red decorations provided the background for a skit in the Lower Kingdom. Family parties within the dorm were the Christmas and birthday dinners and the monthly pajama parties. The dance given May 19 in co-operation with Draper Hall rounded out the new dorm ' s social calendar. President Sally Miller, Vice-president Pat Walters, Secretary Donna Frauhiger, and Treasurer Nancy Savage were second semester officers. Mrs. Katherine Chapman was house director of the dormitory, and she was aided by Assistant Director Mrs. Elnora Neff. Siedschlag ' s all-girl band, the only one of its kind on campus, provides a musical background at the open house. 143 SPINDLER HALL Back row: Barbara Outman, Joan Lennon, Alice Young, Mrs. Helen Inman, Jini Sprietsma, Helen Hitt, Mrs. Katharine Par- son, Marie Large.

The first social event of the semester was Fiesta , the annual fall open house. During Homecoming week-end, the residents were busy decorating the dormitory and welcoming the returning grads. At Christmas time there was the annual Christmas breakfast and the dorm party. Some of the second semester events were the faculty tea, the Mothers ' Day luncheon, the spring lawn picnic, and the dinner honoring the senior women. Spindler and Walwood girls together planned the inter-dorm formal, another spring social event. Spindler ' s rec room is often the scene of fast and furious ping pong games. 144 Fiesta provided a gay theme for Spindler ' s open house. Officers for the first semester were Mary Sackett, president; Barbara Bliss, vice- president; Barbara Wresins ki, secretary; and Dorothy Spagnuolo, treasurer. Con- stance Barker took over the presirency during the second semester, and serving with her were Marion Du Mond, vice-president; Jeanne Hipp, secretary; and Carolyn Du Mond, treasurer. Student counselors Dona Globig, Jini Sprietsma, and Helen Hitt aided Mrs. Kather- ine Parsons, housemother, and Mrs. Helen Inman, assistant housemother.

Costumes and decorations took the guests back to that colorful era. Skits, dancing, and games entertained the spectators. For the girls, special events were planned. Teas were held, and pajama parties filled the social calendar. The traditional Thanksgiving Day dinner, the Christmas breakfast and the Christmas party followed to complete the semester ' s activities. Highlighting Walwood ' s second semester of activities were an open house held in February, an Easter breakfast, a Mothers ' Day tea, and a June tea for the engaged girls. Rounding out the year was the senior dinner. Sally Gordon was first semester president. Aiding her was Charlotte Huggett as vice-president. Mavis Dodge, secretary, and Sally Schwab, treasurer, completed the roster of officers. Early spring elections resulted in Nancy Lewis ' s becoming the second semester president. Vice-president Sally Schwab, Secretary Marilyn Gibbs, and Treasurer Sheila Nesbitt were also elected. Walwood girls while away a few spare hours playing ping pong and cards in the rec room. 146 WALWQOD HALL A Gay Nineties program provided en- tertainment at the Walwood open house.

An overflow crowd of 275 girls were residents of Draper Hall as it began its second semester of activities last fall. Social events filled the calendar of the dormitory. In conjunction with Siedschlag and Burnham halls, a coffee was held in honor of Kalamazoo College students. During Homecoming week-end the girls won second prizes for both their display of Bronc-itis and their float, designed in red and white, with the legend Snow ' Em Under. Formal dedication of Draper-Siedschlag Halls was held in Draper ' s lounge on November 3. Two weeks later doors were thrown open to guests at Holiday House, the annual fall open house. The first Christmas party was another special activity. Seniors carrying lighted candles led the rest of the girls in a procession through the halls of the dormitory to the lounge where everyone gathered for a program of music by the Draper Hall choir and soloists. Dr. Albert Becker was guest speaker. Lillian Sundquist, first semester president, was succeeded by Judy Werner. Vice- president Sandy Hibbard gave her position to Betty Lou Walker, and Kay Kalhorn retained her duties as secretary. Jean Douglas took over Lyn Braden ' s job as treas- urer.

A major achievement in the building program of Western Michigan College was realized when Smith and Ernest Burnham Halls for men were completed and occupied in the fall of 1949. Burnham Hall is a four-story red brick, fire resistant building trimmed in stone. The governing body is made up of 25 men, including resident faculty members, the proctors, and representatives selected by the residents of the Halls. Charles Westra served as presidnt, assisted by Warren Rouse as vice-president, and Burton Butler as secretary-treasurer. The Hall council acts as a judiciary body in matters requiring disciplinary action, recommends rules and regulations, establishes policies which tend to create a better spirit within the dormitory, and organizes social programs. BURNHAM HALLS 149 The buzzing of conversation and the clicking of dishes fills Burnham ' s cafeteria three times a day. Early in the fall the men of Burnham Halls sponsored their annual semi-formal dance, the Festival of Knights , which was held in Walwood ballroom under the guidance of the Hall council. Smokers for residents were sponsored by the council throughout the year, with entertainment being provided by the residents. A formal Christmas dinner, at which several faculty members and their wives appeared as guests, was held. An exchange dinner with Draper-Siedschlag Halls was also planned. The intra-mural program, under the direction of Charles Beyrer, who served as chairman of the Hall athletic committee, was started early in the fall with a schedule of games arranged. The third floor team of Ernest Burnham Hall won the Burnham Hall touch-football championship. Many of the residents participated in the basket- ball and Softball competition as well as the table tennis and golf tournaments. Mr. LeRoy W. Myers served as director, and Mrs. Myers was house mother. They were assisted by Mr. and Mrs. Matthew L. Patanelli. Aiding the directors were the counselors, Mr. James Boynton, Dr. J. William Cundiff, and Mr. Herb Jones of the faculty, and M Sgt. George Beacham of the R.O.T.C. staff.

Two hundred men are residents of Vandercook Hall, until last year the only men ' s dormitory on Western ' s campus. Officers of the Hall Council were Dick Fishbeck, president; Wendell Crockett, vice- president; Bob Gage, secretary-treasurer; and Gene Boyd, publicity director. These men, along with representatives and proctors from each floor, guided the policies and programs of Vandercook during the past year. Mr. and Mrs. Frank Hinds again maintained directorship of the dormitory with the aid of the counselors, Dr. Zack York and Mr. Charles Starring. The intramural athletic program under the leadership of athletic director, Jim Giddis, created a good deal of interest among the residents of Vandercook. The program consisted of swimming one night a week, and league activities in foot- ball, basketball, and Softball. Vandercook men congregate bar during their spare time. 152 Vandercook men grill ' Butler Bulldogs on order The Tepee Tango highlighted Vandercook Hall ' s social functions during the year. Jim Giddis was the general chairman of the semi-formal dance held on November 18. This year ' s dance was the tenth Tepee Tango to be presented on this campus. Some of the other social activities were the get-acquainted smoker in the fall and the farewell smoker in the spring, the open house held on Homecoming week-end, and the annual Christmas party. Vandercook ' s Indian became mechanized this year with a late model convertible.

Guiding the fortunes of Western Michigan ' s athletic teams is the Athletic Board. Composed of five faculty members and three student representatives the duties of the Board are quite extensive. They decide on problems concerning eligibility, schedules, awards, and in general, determine policies continuing Western ' s par- ticipation in intercollegiate athletics. The Dean of Administration, the Comptroller of the college, the Director of Ath- letics, and two members of the college staff represent the faculty interests on the board. Student membership on the board consists of the president of the Student Council, the president of the W Club, and the sports editor of the Herald. ATHLETIC BOARD 220 Serving his 31st year as chairman of the board, Mr. John C. Hoekje, Dean of Ad- ministration, directs the meetings. As Comptroller of Western Michigan, Mr. Cornelius MacDonald acts as secretary of the Athletic Board. Mr. Mitchell Gary, Director of Athletics, serves as the coordinator between the board and the Athletic Department. Mr. Charles Smith and Dr. William Berry were chosen from the faculty at large to represent its interests on the board. Both men have had outstanding service as members in this capacity. Student interests were represented by Bob Peterson, Student Council president; Emil Tomanek, W Club president; and Bill Yena, Herald sports editor. ATHLETIC BOARD CHAIRMAN JOHN C. HOEKJE ATHLETIC DIRECTOR MITCHELL MIKE GARY Completing his first full year as Western Michigan ' s Athletic Director, Mitchell Mike Gary has enjoyed great success in this new capacity. Gary was appointed Athletic Director in October of 1949 following the death of the late Judson A. Hyames. Gary had previously served as Associate Director of Athletics. Mr. Gary was the head coach of Western Michigan ' s football teams for 13 years prior to his entrance into the naval service in 1942. The last Bronco eleven that he coached, in 1941, gained national recognition by winning eight games without a loss or tie. Under the supervision of Mr. Gary, the school ' s Athletic Department directs the physical education curriculum for men, promotes an extensive intramural program, and cooperates with the Athletic Board in determining Western ' s participation in intercollegiate athletics. 222 Z3PS2Z jJfcm Leading the Broncos on the gridiron in the 1950 season were Co-Captains Pat Clysdale and Bill Zabonick. Both outstanding in their play at end, they were deserving of the honor as captains and the team benefitted greatly from their leadership. Clysdale, a six foot, three inch junior from Detroit, played end on offense in the Bronco style platoon system. A Mid-American Conference standout last year, the versatile Clysdale is also a member of the Western basketball team. Playing only defensive ball at his end position, Bill Zabonick was accorded MAC mention for his play. The Coldwater, Michigan senior earned three letters in football with his steady and aggressive work. Although injured through part of the season, Zabonick and Clysdale led Western to another winning season. Co-Captains Pat Clysdale Bill Zabonick John W. Gill, head football coach at Western Michigan College since 1942, guided the varsity team through the 1950 season. In nine years as head coach, Gill ' s teams have produced 42 wins, as against 26 losses and one tie. This amounts to a .616 winning average. He has never had a losing season as a Bronco grid mentor. A 13 letter winner while attending Western, Gill graduated to become the school ' s freshman coach. He also coached varsity backfield men before he succeeded Mike Gary as varsity coach in 1942. The 1942 eleven lost only one of six games and since that time Gill ' s teams have done about as well against highly respected opponents. Roy J. Weitz, line coach at Western since 1942, came as an aid to Gill from the University of Vermont. An outstanding player on the Illinois National Champion team in 1927, Weitz has had wide experience as a player and coach. He has had great success and has graduated several of his linemen into professional football. Matt Patanelli completes the staff of football coaches very capably. A three-sport star at the University of Michigan, Patanelli serves as end coach for John Gill. In his third year at Wes- tern, he has produced some outstanding ends, several gaining Mid-American Conference re- cognition.

Although hampered by critical mid-season injuries and a small squad, Coach John Gill ' s 1950 football team upheld Western ' s fine gridiron record of past years by winning five games while losing four. The Broncos started fast by winning the first three games of the season. A loss to Miami followed by another victory gave en- couragement as the season reached the half-way mark. However, the fast pace of the early games plus the stiff competition took its toll of key players on the Western eleven. Before one game, Gill announced more than a dozen players on the injury list. The Broncos did not disappoint a big Homecoming crowd though, and only a last minute field goal in the last game of the season prevented Western from tying for third place in the Mid-American Conference. The offense-minded Broncos scored 188 to the combined opposition ' s 163. This averages about 21 points a game and 18 points a game respectively. Running was the key to the Western scoring punch. Of the 28 touchdowns scored, 14, or exactly one-half, came by the ground route. Eight six-pointers resulted from Norm Harris passes. Three kicks were returned for touchdowns and alert Bronco defensemen intercepted three opponent passes for touchdowns. Individual honors were evenly divided among Western ' s standout players. Norm Harris led the team in scoring with 36 points. All of his points were made by rush- ing. Stan Malec had the best rushing average with 6.5 yards a carry. Tom Morse made the most trips, 65, and gained the most yards, 370. Chuck Atkocunis was Harris ' s favorite target. The sophomore end caught seven passes good for 21 1 yards. Les Gratton, a senior, was the Mid-American Conference ' s best punter. He averaged 39 yards on 48 punts. At the end of the season Bill Pitkin was elected to captain the 1951 football team. The 23 year-old tackle comes from Brighton, Michigan. 225 Johnston downed by some ' husky Huskies ' after a five yard gain. WESTERN 40 — NORTHERN ILLINOIS 13 Western Michigan ' s Broncos opened the 1950 football season with a four-touch- down win over a Northern Illinois team in Waldo Stadium. The first quarter six-point lead held by Illinois soon evaporated. The Broncos were soon in a position to score. Harris went over from the seven and center Hobart Merritt made it 7-6 in favor of the home team. An exchange of punts resulted in Arnie Thompson picking off one of the kicks and running it back 75 yards for the second touchdown. Merritt made things perfect with his placement. Harris snuck through for nine yards and a 20-6 half-time score just before the gun sounded. Northern Illinois rushed back with a touchdown in the third quarter. Alert, defensive play gave Western the ball. From his 20 yard line, Norm Harris threw a long pass to right end Chuck Atkocunis for another Bronco six-pointer. The fourth period was all Western ' s as Johnston caught a Harris heave and half-back Bob Morse ran for touchdowns. The statistics were much in favor of the Broncos with the Huskies getting 16 first downs to 21 and Western rolling up over 200 yards through the air. WESTERN 21 — CENTRAL MICHIGAN 13 Sterling defensive play and two first half touchdowns steadied the Broncos through their second win of the season over the arch rival Central Michigan Chippewas in Waldo Stadium. The Broncos held off a Chippewa threat on the two yard line for four downs in the first quarter. On the first play, quarterback Norm Harris faded back and tossed a long looping pass to left-halfback Len Johnston who danced the sidelines for the first touchdown of the game. Hobart Merritt converted and Western led, 7-0. Central Michigan quarterback Andy MacDonald tried to pierce the Bronco aerial defense but Arnie Thompson intercepted the throw and ran it back 40 yards and six points. Merritt put the home team 14 points ahead. Late in the third period Bill Brown and Bob Morse combined to put the ball across. Merritt made it 21-0. The Chippewas were far from giving up and their spirited rally for two touchdowns brought forth a thrilling finish. Bob Morse scores the Broncos second touch- down against Central as Malec, No. 38, shows his approval. 226 4. Ma lee and Rocket-end Gil more do son r fancy footwork near the chalk line. WESTERN 54 — TOLEDO 19 Treating Coach John Gill to the best played game of the young season, Western Michigan ' s football team galloped to a 54-19 rout of Toledo University in Waldo Stadium. It was the third straight win for the Broncos and five in a row, counting two 1949 victor ies. The 54 points were the most points scored by a Bronco team in five years. The Brown and Gold started slow but once the offense started to click they could not be denied. Norm Harris scored on a quarterback sneak to complete a 73 yard march. Merritt ' s extra-point made the score 7-0 at the end of the first quarter. Sophomore fullback Stan Malec scored twice on runs of 23 and 1 1 yards to boost the Broncos into a commanding 20-0 half-time lead. It was the Rockets turn to score as the third period started and they managed to. drive for a touchdown. Once again, the Broncos were not to be denied. Malec raced 51 yards to equalize the Toledo score. The ably coached Rockets came right back to score on a short pass. The score was 27-12 when Western half-back Len Johnston took the ensuing kick-off and ran 93 yards for touchdown number five. Just before the end of the quarter, Ken Hirsch picked off a T. U. toss and raced 20 yards for another touchdown. Hobart Merritt ' s conversion gave Western a 40-12 lead. Toledo drew first blood on a pass play in the fourth quarter. The Broncos retaliated when Malec took the kick-off on his own 28 and ran 72 yards to score. It was Malec ' s fourth touchdown of the game. Norm Harris ended the scoring a few min- utes later when he threw a 25 yard pass to end Chuck Atkocunis. Merritt added the 54th point. MIAMI 35 — WESTERN Miami ' s Redskins brought a halt to Western ' s winning ways when they scored a convincing win over the Broncos at Oxford, Ohio. Rated as favorites for the MAC crown, Miami won with superior passing and reserve strength under a hot, blazing sun that took its toll of players. Western stopped two Miami drives in the first quarter but on a third try, fullback Jim Bailey scored. Western got the ball down as far as the Redskin 20 before a Norm Harris pass was intercepted on the 15. Miami marched up the field with All- American candidate Johnny Pont finally carrying the ball over from the two. Paul Sautter added the second of five extra points. Jerry Beckrest scored next for Miami and with the score 21-0 the Broncos started to drive. Time ran out in the first half though, with Western on the Redskin ' s 33. Miami ' s wealth of reserves finally was taking effect, as both teams found it hard to sustain a drive in the third period. Bailey and Cozza scored fourth quarter touch- downs for Miami before Western was able to get close for six points. Norm Harris completed a 52 yard pass to left halfback Arnold Thompson to put the ball on the Redskin three yard line. On the next play, however, a Bronco fumble was retrieved by Miami and Western ' s most serious threat was ended. 227 WESTERN 26 — WASHINGTON 7 The Broncos traveled to St. Louis, Missouri for an inter-sectional game with the Washington University Bears. In a spectacular second half rally the Western team left the Bears in the dust with a 26-7 win. A crowd of 10,000 watched the Home- coming battle. The first half was a stand-off as both teams concentrated on defense. It was not until late in the third period that Washington finally scored on an 80 yard punt return. Western took the kickoff and marched 77 yards to score. Harris went over after setting up the score with passes to Thompson and Johnston. The third quarter ended with the Bears ahead, 7-6. A pass to Atkocunis for 28 yards and runs by Bob Morse and Norm Harris resulted in the next Bronco touchdown. Harris went over and Merritt ' s kick was good. Gene Clysdale ' s interception of a W. U. pass set up Harris ' third touchdown and Western ' s next seven points. The Bronco quarterback flipped a pass to Atkocunis for 20 yards and a first down on the Bear ' s five. Harris snuck over and Merritt put Western out ahead, 20-7. Alert defensive play by Arnold Thompson put the ball on the Washington 13. His pass interception marked one of five the Broncos spoiled for the Bears. Bobby Chant, sophomore halfback, ran the last 13 yards to score the final six points. Co-captain Bill Zabonick, Dick Pins, and Bill Pitkin were outstanding on defense. Leslie Gratton, the Bronco ' s excellent punter, got off a tremendous punt early in the game. The total distance of the kick was 83 yards. It was one of the best individual performances of the 1950 season. CINCINNATI 26 — WESTERN 7 The Broncos returned to the familiar chalk-lines of Waldo Stadium in an attempt to register their first triumph in M.A.C. competition. The Cincinnati Bearcats were the opposition and the 1949 conference champions proved to be too much for the injury riddled and reserveless Broncos. The game was hard fought from start to finish and the line play was particularly good. The Bearcats scored in the first five minutes of the game on a short plunge. They threatened once again before the Bronco forward wall stiffened to stop a drive on the 16. Western reversed the procedure end put together two beautiful Norm Harris passes to score. Right end Chuck Atkocunis caught the second of these throws for 18 yards and a touchdown. Merritt ' s try for the extra point was low and Miami led, 7-6. The game then turned into a punting and defensive duel with the Bronco ' s defense outplaying the Bearcats line. The third quarter was much like the first half until Cincinnati took advantage of a short punt to drive for a touchdown. The Bearcats ' offense began to roll against the tiring Western team and the result was two more six-pointers in the fourth quarter. Western managed to take the ball 62 yards to the visitors ' two yard line before being stopped. Highlight of the Bronco offense was Bob Morse ' s 55 yard run. Statistics showed the Cat ' s superiority as they rolled up 17 first downs to the Broncos 10. Western gained 152 yards along the ground and 103 in the air while Cincinnati ' s versatile offense powered for 284 rushing yards and 140 passing yards.

It was the fifth victory of the season for the Broncos and it was the ninth win in twelve meetings with the Bulldogs. Western put the ball in bulldog territory early in the game with the aid of Bob Scott ' s punt return and runs by Stan Malec and Bob Morse. After a five yard pen- alty and one incomplete pass, quarterback Norm Harris hit Arnold Thompson with a pass good for a touchdown. Center Hobart Merriit added the extra point to end the first quarter scoring. Bob Morse ' s run of 67 yards put the Broncos on the Bull- dog three yard line on the first play of the second period. Morse then skirted left end for touchdown number two. Merritt again converted. A Western fumble was capitalized on by the Bulldogs and they rushed over a touchdown to narrow the score to 7 points. Thompson returned the kick-off to the Butler 38 and three plays later he caught another Harris pass for a touchdown. Merritt ' s kick was perfect. Thompson continued his heroics by intercepting a Butler pass on the 31. After two running plays, Harris found Thompson for his third scoring pass of the game. Hob Merritt raised the score to 28-7 as the half ended. The Broncos received the second half kick-off and compiled four straight first downs to score another touchdown. Bob Morse carried the ball over from the eight yard line. Coach John Gill was content to substitute freely with the game pretty well under wraps. The rest of the game was played between the 20 yard lines before Butier finally pierced the Bronco defense for another score. Dick Pins, Larry Joiner, and Bill Zabonick were sturdy on defense and without a doubt Thompson, Harris, and Morse were the offensive stars. Final statistics showed the Broncos racking up 21 first downs to 13 for the Bulldogs. Western rushed and passed their way for 450 yards while Butler was limited to 281 total yards.

WESTERN RESERVE 26 — WESTERN Western Reserve University upset Western in the final appearance in Waldo Stadium for the 1950 season with a four touchdown upset of the favored Broncos. A cold and chilly crowd of about 500 watched the Redcats play inspired ball in near freezing weather. The game was reminiscent of the historic Michigan-Ohio State game as the intense cold, ice, and snow were influencing factors in the play of the game. The Broncos marched 86 yards in 22 plays to be stopped on the Redcat three yard line in the first half. Another drive was stopped inside the five. Reserve, with M.A.C. stand-out Al Morhard throwing accurate passes, finally scored in the second quarter. The second half decidedly favored the team from Cleveland as they scored twice in the third quarter and once in the fourth. Western could not get started and the lack of adequate reserves hurt the Broncos. At times the Western offense looked like it was under way, with runs by Thompson and Morse but the sensational passing of Morhard was to spell the difference. OHIO UNIVERSITY 10 — WESTERN 7 Just two minutes away from their first Mid-American Conference win, Western Michigan finally succumbed to the Ohio Bobcats on a last minute touchdown and field goal. The game was played at Selby Field in Athens, Ohio. The defeat was Western ' s fourth of the season but it still gave the Broncos a winning season with five wins and four losses. Ohio ended the season with an identical record but finished ahead of the Broncos in conference play. The evenly matched teams drove up and down the field with defensive play pre- dominating. Twice Western stopped Ohio inside the 10 yard line. The Broncos pen- etrated Bobcat territory to no avail. It was not until well into the second quarter that the first break of the game came. Ohio quarterback Don Haugh tried a short pass from his own 26 only to have Western ' s Ed Janz intercept it. Janz raced down the sidelines for a touchdown and Western was in front, 7-0, when Hobart Merritt added the extra point. The game continued to be a defensive duel with Western stopping two desperate Ohio drives. The Broncos themselves could not coordinate a drive as the time was running out. Andy Fabis, Bob Davis, and Haugh combined to give the Bobcats their first touchdown of the game. This ended a 43 yard march and Bill Bevan made it completely successful with a perfect placement to tie the game. Western could not move the ball following the kick-off and had to punt. Unfortunately for the Broncos, the punt traveled only ten yards. Ohio quickly capitalized on this break, carried the ball to the Western 15 yard line from where Bevan booted the winning three points with only seconds left to play. 230 1950 COMPLETE RECORD WESTERN 40 Northern Illinois 13 WESTERN 21 Central Michigan 13 WESTERN 54 Toledo 19 Western MIAMI, Ohio 35 WESTERN 26 Washington, St Louis 7 Western 6 CINCINNATI 27 WESTERN 34 Butler 13 Western WESTERN RESERVE 26 Western 7 OHIO UNIVERSITY 10 FINAL MID-AMERI CAN CONFERENCE STANDINGS W.

Continuing Western ' s winning ways, Coach Tom Slaughter and the 1950 Western frosh ended the season with three wins and one loss. Outstanding play by linemen and backs would seem to indicate some new names in the 1951 varsity lineup. Much credit can be given to Coach Slaughter and his assistants; Al Micatratto, Emil Tomanek, Bob White, and Bob Isaac. The largest turn-out in Frosh history answered the first call for practice. From this number of 125 some 55 remained for the duration of the season. Gaining much attention game after game, was a speedy fullback from Rochester, Earl Montross. He scored more than half of the teams points for the season. The play of quarterback Ed Foster was very encouraging and his passes accounted for eight touchdowns. Others showing some varsity promise were; Ron Gow, guard; Bill Ponessa, guard; and Dick Hiner, end. A total of 32 men were awarded numerals at an annual Football Banquet. It was also announced that Tackle Al Manne had been elected honorary captain for the season. FROSH FOOTBALL 232 WESTERN FROSH 33 — VALPARAISO FROSH 13 Avenging last year ' s 7-6 loss at the hands of the Crusaders, Coach Tom Slaughter ' s Colts ran and passed their way to a 33- 1 3 victory over the visitors in Waldo Stadium. Western opened with a vengeance, scoring three touchdowns in the first period. Quarterback Ed Foster flipped passes to ends Dick Hiner and Phil Bailey and fleet Earl Montross countered on a short run for a 20-0 lead. Valpo struck back in the second quarter for their only scores of the game. The Colts practically iced the game when Montross scored again in the third quarter. Tom Witt completed the Western scoring with a final minute touchdown. Fine defensive play was turned in by Jim Sutton, Al Manne, Floyd Stollsteimer, and Pat Barr. Coach Slaughter used many substitutes when the team improved its play as the game progressed. WESTERN FROSH 33 — GRAND RAPIDS JC 13 The Colts traveled to Grand Rapids Junior College for their second win of the season. Once again it was the passing of Ed Foster and the running of Earl Mont- ross that sparked the Western team. Foster opened the scoring with a long toss to end Phil Bailey. Montross caught two more Foster aerials for touchdowns and ran four yards for another. The half-time score read 19-6 in favor of the Colts and the issue was never in doubt. The JC scores were hard earned as the Western defense was very alert, recovering three fumbles in the fourth quarter. Guards Bill Ponessa and Ron Gow and tackle Al Manne turned in good defensive work. WESTERN FROSH 13 — U. OF DETROIT FROSH 32 A rugged University of Detroit freshmen team proved poor hosts as they handed the Western yearlings their first defeat of the season, 32-13. The Colts have never beaten the Detroiters in the long history of games played between the two schools. Western equalized a Detroit torchdown in the first quarter on a 50 yard pass from Ed Foster to Howard Sullivan. However, the Titans took advantage of some breaks and led at the half, 19-6. The Colts took the second half kick-off and marched to their second score. After a Foster pass had put the ball deep in Detroit territory, Fullback Earl Montross plunged over from the five. His conversion was good and Western trailed by only one six-pointer. Detroit did not falter though, and added two more touchdowns to complete the scoring. WESTERN FROSH 26 — IONIA REFORMATORY Finishing the season with their third decisive win, the Colts trounced a good Ionia team on their own home grounds by a score of 26-0. A successful passing offense set up the Western touchdowns. Quarterback Ed Foster snuck over from the two after short throws to ends Phil Bailey and Dick Hiner. In the second quarter, a 20 yard toss to Hiner was good for a six-pointer. Later in the period a Foster to Earl Montross pass was completed for 15 yards and a touch- down. The third period was scoreless as both teams fought stubbornly. The Colts managed one more score in the fourth quarter when Montross went 5 yards for the final points. 1950 SCORERS t.d. ex. pts. t. pts Earl Montross, fb 8 5 53 Dick Hiner, e 3 18 Ed Foster, qb 2 12 Phil Bailey, e 1 6 Tom Witt, fb 1 6 Howard Sullivan, hb 1 6 Joe DiNatle, c 4 4 16 9 105 233 Al Austin, Kalamazoo; Stewart M Bernie Stafford, Plainwell; Bill Gold Detroit; Bill Alman, Kalamazoo; Bob Epskamp, Flint; Capt.

They finished second in a triangular meet. The team finished second in the Mid American Conference and third in the Central Collegiate. Coach Clayton Maus ' team benefitted greatly from the running of Captain Russ Gabier. The Cadillac junior won five of the seven races he ran. Contributing to Western ' s fin e team balance throughout the season were Bernie Stafford, Bill Alman, and Bill Golden, all seniors. Bob Epskamp, a junior, and Stewart Mollon and Al Austin, sophomores, complete the squad. WESTERN 18 — CENTRAL MICHIGAN 45 Fine team balance and a sparkling first place finish by Russ Gabier brought the Western Michigan cross country team its first victory of the season. The Broncos took seven of the first eight places as Coach Maus and his team found the weather and the Chippewa ' s course to their liking. In order of finish for the Brown and Gold were Gabier, Bob Epskamp, Al Austin, Stewart Mollon, Bernie Stafford, Bill Alman, and James Cobb. MIAMI 21 — WESTERN 42 — BUTLER 57 In a triangular meet at Indianapolis, the Mausmen managed a second place while Gabier continued his winning ways. Gabier ' s time of 21:05 was just five seconds better than that turned in by Miami ' s star, Cash Powell. Miami had the balance however, and Bob Epskamp was the only other Western man to finish in the top six places dominated by the Redskins. Others to finish for the visiting Broncos were: Bernie Stafford, Stewart Mollon, Bill Alman, Al Austin, and Bill Golden. CROSS COUNTRY 234 WESTERN 22 — WAYNE 37 The Broncos once again showed fine teamwork as they won their second meet of the season at Wayne University. Russ Gabier ' s time of 21:39.5 was just eight-tenths of a second off the course record. The seven man Western team swept seven of the top ten places. Stafford finished third, Epskamp was fourth, Mollon sixth, Austin eighth, Alman ninth, and Golden tenth. WESTERN 27 — LOYOLA 32 Despite the fact that the Chicago team placed three of their men in the first four finishers, the Broncos still managed to win a close run on the Western Michigan course. Gabier won his fourth straight blue ribbon in almost record time. His first place and a blanket finish by four other Western runners gave the victory to the Broncos. Stafford, Epskamp, Mollon, and Austin finished fifth, sixth, seventh, and eighth in that order. WESTERN 38 — MARQUETTE 17 The Broncos played host to the powerful Hilltoppers as part of the Homecoming festivities. The sensational running of John Stearns, Marquette sophomore, and Russ Gabier ' s forced retirement during the meet simply overwhelmed the Western team. Stearns set a new course record of 21 :24, eclipsing the previous 1949 Gabier record of 21:38.8. Bob Epskamp was fifth for the Broncos with a time of 23 minutes. Bill Golden was a close sixth with Bernie Stafford, Al Austin, and Stewart Mollon completing the Bronco score. MID AMERICAN CONFERENCE Athens, Ohio was the scene of the annual Mid American Conference cross country run and a strong Miami University team successfully defended its title won a year ago from Western Michigan. Once again the Broncos were the only team to come close in the chase. The Redskins had 28 points to win, Western scored 39, and host Ohio, Cincinnati, and Western Reserve were distant finishers. The Broncos were paced by Bernie Stafford, Bill Alman, and Russ Gabier who finished fourth, fifth, and sixth respectively. Bill Golden and Bob Epskamp were other place winners. CENTRAL COLLEGIATE CONFERENCE The Bronco hill-and-dalers traveled to Ypsilanti and the scene of the Central Collegiate meet. The Western team captured third place in a close finish that found Marquette winning with 56 points, Notre Dame scoring 57, Western 61, and the rest of the entries trailing far behind. Russ Gabier took second place behind the deter- mined running of Marquette ' s John Stearns. Con- tributing to the Bronco score were Bernie Stafford, seventh; Bill Alman, fifteenth; Stewart Mollon, sixteenth; and Bob Epskamp, twenty-fourth. 235 Back row: Jerry Leland, Ypsilanti; Walter Hansen, Dearborn; Head Coach Clayton Maus. Front row: Dave VanHorne, Kalamazoo; Dave Fitzpatrick, Kalamazoo; Howard Linders, Kalamazoo. The Western Michigan freshman cross country team finished the season with a .500 average. They won one dual meet while losing one, and they were runners-up in a triangular meet. Despite the short season, Coach Clayton Maus managed to uncover some fine talent for next years varsity team. The six boys mentioned below were all awarded numerals at the annual Football and Cross Country banquet. WESTERN FROSH 36 — MIAMI 34 — BUTLER 56 The Western frosh runners opened their season with a second place effort at Indianapolis. The Bronco ' s Jerry Leland and Dave Vanhorn finished one-two over the two and three-quarters mile course. Al Hansen finished sixth and was followed by Howard Linders, thirteenth; David Fitzpatrick, fourteenth; and Ken Hansen, fifteenth. WESTERN FROSH 32 — WAYNE 23 The Wayne frosh cross country team spoiled Western ' s debut on its own course as they out-placed the Broncos in a fast meet. Jerry Leland and David Vanhorn were across first for the home team. Howard Linders came in seventh, Al Hansen finished eighth, and Ken Hansen, tenth. WESTERN FROSH 19 — CENTRAL MICHIGAN 36 The freshman team finished its season with a convincing win over Central Michigan. The meet was run over Western ' s new three-mile course. Jerry Leland finished first for the Broncos for the third time in the season. His time automatically set a course record since it was the first meet run on the course. Other Western placers were Howard Linders, second; Dave Vanhorn, fourth; Al Hansen, fifth; and Dave Fitz- patrick, seventh. FRESHMAN CROSS COUNTRY 236 Sharing the captaincy of Western Michigan ' s basketball team, Roy Healy and Joe Shaw, both great scorers, were aggressive defensive men, and inspirational leaders on the hardwood. Healy, a sophomore from Montgomery, Indiana, and Shaw, a junior from Leslie, Michigan, stood only six feet tall against opponents that ranged anywhere from two to six inches taller. They weigh about the same, 160 pounds, but they make up in fight and determination what they lack in height. Joe Shaw ended the season as the Broncos best point producer and most accurate shooter. In eight games the junior forward was the high point man. Roy Healy, as Shaw ' s partner at forward, was a ball-hawk all season long, stealing the ball and setting up numerous fast-break baskets for the team. The election of Shaw and Healy was well deserved in the eyes of Western fans who saw the two play in the long season. Co-Captains Roy Healy and Joe Shaw Coach Bill Perigo Popular Coach Bill Perigo directed the Broncos to 13 wins and 9 losses in his second season as basketball mentor. The former Benton Harbor coach continued the success that he enjoyed while at that high school. This year ' s team played against the area ' s best opposition and under the direction of Perigo did a fine job in upholding Western ' s basketball reputation. The Hoosier-born coach gained his first fame while attending the hilltop school. Starring for three seasons as a center for Buck Read, Perigo then moved on to high school coaching in Indiana and eventually at Benton Harbor, Michigan. His teams were feared for their fast play. It was natural then, for Buck Read to choose Perigo as his successor as Western Michigan ' s head basketball coach. The result has been two second place finishes in the Mid-American Confer- ence and prospects for even greater accomplish- ments. Playing without the usual tall men to be found in today ' s game of basketball, the Broncos have done a creditable job under the leadership of Bill Perigo. 238 Back row: Jerry Rush, Hammond, Indiana, Manager; Bill Slaughter, Scottdale, Pa.; Jim Hipshir, Wabash, Ind.; Jim Wenke, Kalamazoo; Al Horn, Paw Paw; Bob Bakeman, Benton Harbor; Coach Bill Perigo. Front row: Roy Healy, Montgomery, Ind.; Jim Betchek, Berrien Springs; Bob Adams, South Bend, Ind.; Chuck Brotebeck, Flint; Joe Shaw, Leslie. The Western Michigan 1950-51 basketball season was surely one of the most exciting in the school ' s history. Coach Bill Perigo played the entire season with two juniors and three sophomores making up the starting five. The quintet averaged about six feet, one inch in height and in the majority of games were matched against opponents averaging three or four inches taller. However, the Western tradition was evident in the scrappy style of play used by the Broncos. Northwestern was hard pressed before they eked out a two-point decision and the mighty Iowa Hawkeyes succumbed to the Western cagemen by an impressive nine point margin. In Mid-American Conference play the Brown and Gold finished in a tie for second place. A fine balance in scoring and some capable reserves resulted in the Broncos respectable 13 and 9 season record. Joe Shaw and Bobby Adams both scored over 300 points to lead the team in scoring. Chuck Brotebeck sank the most free throws, 75, and Adams was the object of the official ' s whistles the most times, 88. Adams had the best individual output with 26 points against Manchester. Shaw tallied 25 points on three different occasions. 239 WESTERN 55 — CENTRAL MICHIGAN 44 The Broncos were host to the Chippewas in a typical season opener. The ragged play of both teams did much to hold down the score. The two starting sophomores, Roy Healy and Chuck Brote- beck sparked the Western team to a 22-20 half- time lead. The Broncos gradually increased their lead in the last half. Brotebeck was the high scorer with 14 points. Bob Adams had 13 and Roy Healy 11. Betchek lends a helping (?) hand against the Chippewas. NORTHWESTERN 64 — WESTERN 62 Coach Perigo ' s team surprised a strong Wildcat five with speed and some hot shooting to almost upset the Big Ten power. Trailing by nine points with two minutes to go in the game, the Broncos put on a belated rally with baskets by Shaw, Ellis, and Brotebeck narrowing the margin. Northwestern ' s Ray Regalis, the Big Ten ' s top scorer, scored 24 points but had to yield scoring honors to Western ' s Joe Shaw who tallied 25 points. WESTERN 71 — MANCHESTER 70 In a high-scoring thriller played at Manchester, the Broncos out-lasted a spunky Spartan team to gain their second win of the season. The teams were tied five times in the first half as they left the floor with 30 points apiece. The Broncos were hard pressed all the way but a nine point splurge by Adams and a deadly fast-break put Western in front to stay for the rest of the game. Bob Adams scored 12 baskets and 2 free throws for 26 points and the best individual performance. The Broncos were forced to play without the services of center Jim Wenke who was injured in the Northwestern game. Tense moment players wait Western ' s ba Iowa upset — ' ebound under WESTERN 58 — IOWA 49 The Broncos played their most inspired ball of the season to down the nationally rated Big Ten team. Shaw and Adams alternated baskets to pace Western to a 17-2 lead after 11 minutes of play. The Broncos widened the margin to 21 points at half-time, 34-21. The second half was played at an even faster pace, the Hawkeyes trying to catch up to a more deliberate Western five. Iowa ' s six foot, eight inch center, Chuck Darling, tallied 21 points in the last period but this was not enough to offset the alert rebounding and shooting of the Broncos. The one-two punch, Bob Adams and Joe Shaw, scored 22 and 20 points respectively. Darling ended the game with 23 points despite some tight defensive work by Jim Wenke, in the first half, and two other Perigo pivot men. 240 A Bronco goes high to block a Hope shot. Ball State managed to stop this Hipshir shot attempt. WESTERN 76 — HOPE 56 A 22 point half-time lead was all that Western needed to coast to their fourth win of the season. The score was 38 to 16 at the end of the first twenty minutes and with reserves playing the second half they matched the Dutchmen point for point. Hipshir, Sabadin, and Ellis combined for 26 of these points. Shaw was high point man with 17. WESTERN 74 — BALL STATE 47 The Broncos broke fast to take a commanding lead early in the ball game. The game was the third of the season which saw more than 70 points on the score- board for Western. Sophomore Chuck Brotebeck netted 17 points, with Shaw ' s 15 and Adam ' s 10 supporting the victory. WESTERN 80 — VALPARAISO 68 The team traveled to the Indiana school and came out on top with a well-earned win. The play was hard all the way and Western held a slight 39-34 lead at the half. The loss of Wenke, Shaw, and Adams via the foul route forced Coach Perigo to depend on Betchek, Hipshir, and Sabadin for more than ten minutes of the last half. These subs came through and the Broncos pulled away near the end of the game. Shaw scored 18, Adams 14, Brotebeck 11, Sabadin 11, and Hipshir 10 points. Brotebeck surprises Wenke for a basket WESTERN 85 — RIPON 57 A red-hot starting five paced the Broncos to their sixth straight victory and seventh win against only one loss. The invaders from the Dairy State were never in the game, trailing 44-25 at the end of the first half. Joe Shaw tallied 13 points in the first half and finished the game with 23 for high point honors. Bob Adams scored 15 points and Chuck Brotebeck 1 1 as the starting five accounted for 65 points of the total score for Western. 241 MIAMI 48 — WESTERN 42 The Redskins continued to exercise their home court jinx over the Broncos in the opening game of the Mid-American Conference schedule. A tight zone defense permitted few shots and the six foot, seven center for Miami, Dick Walls, captured a lion ' s share of the rebounds. The game was nip- and tuck all the way until the last five minutes when the Redskins worked a semi-stall good for the six point win. The scoring was evenly divided for both teams. Adams and Healy each scored 10 points while Greisinger ' s 1 1 and King ' s 9 were high for Miami. Healy out numbered in a fight for a rebound. WESTERN 65 — VALPARAISO 62 A blistering first-half pace caught the Crusaders short of wind in the second period and permitted the Broncos to claim their second win of the season over the visitors. All-American candidate Jim Ove kept Valpo in the game with 22 points in the first half, but these markers were offset by the scoring of Chuck Brotebeck and Joe Shaw. The half time score read 45-40 in favor of Western. Bob Adams sparked the second half offense as the Crusaders failed to get the ball into Ove at the pivot. A total of 52 fouls were called and Western won the game from the charity line, converting 19 throws to Valpo ' s 16. Ove scored 24 points while Brotebeck and Adams scored 17 and 14 points respec- tively. WESTERN 69 — OHIO 58 The Broncos scored their first M.A.C. win in two starts with a decision at the Athens School. The first half saw the teams alternate the lead. Perigo used his reserve strength early in the game and once again it paid off. The Broncos lost three starters by fouls but the issue was never in doubt. This completed the first half of the season and Western showed nine wins compared to only two defeats. Well balanced scoring was evident as Adams hit for 15, Shaw for 14, Healy for 1 1, Betchek for 10, and Sabadin for 9. CINCINNATI 73 — WESTERN 65 Playing before a capacity crowd of 6,500 fans in the Cincinnati Gardens, the Bearcats and the Broncos hooked up in a real battle that was not decided until five fouls forced three of the visiting Broncos to the bench. Cincinnati ' s first half lead was mostly due to the phenominal shooting of forward Joe Luchi. Jim Wenke was particularly hot for Western and ended the game with a total of 21 points. The loss of Adams, Healy, and Brotebeck by fouls hurt as Western outhit the Bearcats from the floor 28 baskets to 26, but Cinncy converted 21 free throws compared to the Broncos 9. 242 LOYOLA 50 — WESTERN 48 An under-dog Chicago team managed to tag another loss on the Broncos with the help of the official ' s whistles and some poor shooting on the loser ' s part. Holding a 38-22 lead early in the second half, the Ramblers found it hard to keep up with an aroused Western five. Despite the fact that three starters were waved to the bench because of fouls, the Kalamazoo team closed the gap to three points with two minutes to go. Loyola successfully stalled out the remaining time. Adams with 18 points and Healy with 14, were tops, offensively. Shaw to Healy on a Western fast break. TOLEDO 63 — WESTERN 61 Matched against the nation ' s 12th ranked team, the Broncos lost a heart-breaker before a capacity crowd in the Western gym. Playing the Rockets on even terms throughout the first half, the taller opponents managed two baskets in the last four minutes of play to break a 59-59 deadlock. Healy and Brotebeck checked the Rockets ' high-scorers while Shaw ' s 19 points and Adams ' 15 kept the Broncos in the game. WESTERN 85 — WESTERN RESERVE 59 A stubborn Red Cat team allowed Western only a 32-31 half-time lead in the M.A.C. contest. It took the winners just ten minutes of the second period to equal their first-half scoring with Roy Healy and Bob Adams doing most of the damage. Healy accounted for 19 points and was followed closely by Shaw with 15, Adams with 13, and Wenke with 11. Forward John Kappos paced the Reserve team with 17 points. This was Western ' s 10th victory in 15 games for the season. Six-foot Bob Adan Bob Hamahan. WESTERN 60 — LOYOLA 53 Coach Perigo ' s cagers avenged an earlier loss to the Ramblers with a well-earned win over this well-regarded foe. It also gave the Broncos a 1 5 to 14 edge in the all-time series between the schools. Balance was the keynote of the Western offense and this did much to disrupt the Chicagoans ' defense. Jim Betchek scored seven out of seven free throws and wound up the game with 1 1 points, just one shy of Healy ' s and Adams ' 12. Loyola ' s jumping-jack forward, Nick Kladis took individual honors with 15 points. 243 MIAMI 87 — WESTERN 77 The visiting Redskins helped to set a new gym record as they handed the Broncos their third M.A.C. defeat of the season. The total of 164 points was four more than these same two teams scored last year for a gym record. The game was close and fast all the way, the score being tied seven times. Miami ' s great center, Dick Walls, was the difference under the backboards. The six-and- a-half foot center scored 24 points, fed off many more points from his pivot, and captured a lion ' s share of the rebounds. Western could have no excuse for losing to this red-hot Redskin team. Shooting a respectable 37 per cent of their shots, they still had to yield to the visitors who sank more than 40 per cent of theirs. Healy had 19 points and Adams had 15 and Betchek continued to sparkle with 1 1 points in the last period. Miami stops a Brotebeck shot as Adan and Wenke charge in for the ball. WESTERN 66 — OHIO 59 The Broncos evened up their conference record at three and three with a win over the visiting Bobcats. Sophs Healy, Wenke, and Brotebeck accounted for 42 points between them as a 40-30 half-time lead was a sufficient margin for Western to hold. Glen Hursey, Ohio ' s stellar guard, tossed in 25 points for the best individual scoring effort of the season in the Western gym. An Ohio player fouls Adams as he goes up for a shot. CENTRAL MICHIGAN 72 — WESTERN 70 The Chippewa ' s took a close one from the visiting Kalamazoo team in a game that saw the lead change hands more than a dozen times. Western held a slight 36-35 lead at the end of the first half, due mainly to the shooting of Joe Shaw. The last twenty minutes favored the Chippe ' s though, as substitute center Duane Graham scored 19 points and the last minute winning basket to almost single-handedly defeat the Broncos. Jim Doyle also garnered 19 points for Central. Shaw ' s 21 points were high for Western. Adams had 15 and Brotebeck and Healy scored 14 and 12 points respectively. 244 TOLEDO 72 — WESTERN 58 The long season was beginning to tell on the Perigo five as they dropped a rugged battle to the Rockets. A total of 32 fouls were called against the Broncos and four men were lost via fouls during the game. Western completely outplayed the favored T.U. team in the first half and well into the second half until a scoring spree by the Rockets put them ahead to stay. Roy Healy marked up 16 points but he had to yield scoring honors to six foot, nine inch Toledo center, Ralph Carroll who had four baskets and sixteen free throws for 24 points. WESTERN 86 — WESTERN RESERVE 70 Cinching at least a tie for second place in the Mid-American Conference, the Brown and Gold lead all the way against a stubborn Red Cat team. Joe Shaw resumed his role as top scorer with 25 points. Coupled with some fine point making by the rest of the team, the Broncos were out of reach at half-time, 45-30. Roy Healy ' s floor play set up several Western scores and he tallied 15 points. Betchek ' s 11 points were next highest. Bill Dawson was the big gun for Reserve, scoring 28 points. CINCINNATI 78 — WESTERN 68 Climaxing the long 22 games schedule in the Western gym before 2800 frenzied fans, the Broncos lost their ninth game of the season to nationally-ranked Cincin- nati. The combination of pressure defense and great rebounding and shooting was just too much for an underdog Western team. The first half was close all the way and the Bear Cats spirited only a six point lead as the second half got under way. The professional-like plays of the M.A.C. cham- pions soon put the game on ice although the Broncos did manage to narrow the score in the closing minutes of play. All-American possibility, Jim Holstein, scored 26 points and thrilled the crowd with spectacular rebounding and shooting. Forward Joe Shaw was close behind for Western. The six footer scored 25 points and Bob Adams finished with 15.

The 1950-51 Freshman basketball team recorded one of the best seasons ever played by a Western team. Winners in eight out of nine regular season games, the Colts also trounced the Howard Pore City League team by a 94 to 69 count. Coach Tom Slaughter had the benefit of some outstanding freshmen and this caused changes in the lineup throughout the season. John Pindar from Briston, Pennslvania, was the team ' s high scorer with 129 points. Neil Benford, Ed Foster, and Jerry Nowinski followed in that order for scoring honors. Ed Foster from Niles, Michigan, was elected honorary captain at the end of the season. FRESHMAN BASKETBALL 247 FRESHMAN BASKETBALL WESTERN FROSH 52 — CENTRAL MICHIGAN FROSH 50 A basket by John Smith in the last 14 seconds of the game gave the Frosh their first victory of the season. Neil Benford was high point man with 23 points in the thriller. WESTERN FROSH 78 — HOPE FROSH 45 The Colts ran over a hapless Dutchmen team for their biggest margin of victory. John Pindar, Neil Benford, and Jerry Nowinski led in scoring with 14, 14, and 13 points, respectively. WESTERN FROSH 63 — AQUINAS 52 Coach Slaughter ' s five was hard-pressed to defeat a fine Aquinas team. Balanced scoring was evident as John Pindar tallied 18 points, Neil Benford, 17, and Gerry Nowinski, 14. WESTERN FROSH 62 — HOPE FROSH 60 Gaining their fourth win of the season, the Bronco yearlings had to rely on a last minute rally featured by Neil Benford ' s last second basket for their second triumph over the Hope Frosh. Pindar was top man with 17 points. CENTRAL MICHIGAN FROSH 52 — WESTERN FROSH 47 The Chippewa team edged the Colts at Mount Pleasant for the only blemish on an otherwise perfect record for the Western team. Rallying from a ten point half-time deficit almost brought victory over a team the young Broncos had previously beaten. Pindar lead the scorers with 14 points, Benford scored 10 points, and John Wolfe got seven. WESTERN FROSH 77 — VALPARAISO FROSH 60 Sparked by forward John Pindar ' s 30 points, the Slaughter crew out-scored a taller and favored Valpo team. Sinking almost fifty percent of their shots the Frosh lead at half-time, 45-30. Bob Diment was second best scorer with 14 points. WESTERN FROSH 65 — CALVIN FROSH 57 Ending the first semester play with their sixth win of the season, the Bronco year- lings dropped a rugged Calvin team at Grand Rapids. Nowinski, Benford, and Orwin combined their scoring talents to break a 50-50 tie and put the Frosh ahead for good. Nowinski was high with 14 points. WESTERN FROSH 64 — VALPARAISO FROSH 46 The Colts scored a well earned win over the Crusader Frosh, featuring an aggressive defense and potent fast break they twice rallied when the taller Valpo team seemed to be catching up. Center Ed Foster, from Niles led all players with 20 points. John Pindar had 13 points and forward Norval Burgett scored eight points besides playing an outstanding floor game. WESTERN FROSH 65 — AQUINAS 53 The Frosh ended regular season play with another victory over Aquinas college. Ed Foster continued to pace the scorers with 22 points. Norv Burgett counted 12 points and John Wolfe had 10. This was the Colts eighth win compared to only one loss on their schedule. 248 v Coach Charles Maher Coach Matt Patanelli Coach Charlie Maher celebrates his 25th year as a Western coach and embarks on his 13th season as the Bronco ' s baseball coach. Since his appointment as head coach, Maher-coached teams have won 136 games, lost 79, and tied 3 for a winning average of .631. His teams have qualified for the Fourth District NCAA playoffs for the last three years, something no other mid-west school can boast. Maher was a star catcher on Western Michigan baseball teams in 1922, 1923, and 1924. Upon his graduation he was named head of the intramural department and assistant baseball coach under the late Judson Hyames. Maher took over the head coaching duties in 1937. Assisting the head coach is Matt Patanelli, former University of Michigan three- sport star. Patanelli played outfield and first base while in school and he is an able assistant for Coach Maher. Combining their talents with Western Michigan ' s famous Hyames Field, Coaches Maher and Patanelli have produced some great collegiate teams. It is not unusual to see several major league scouts attending Western baseball games. Many former Bronco baseball players are now in the major leagues. 250 .1 I ... r B .1 - Mm ina r m — m — isr T rr ir.„ - ■ ■ ' • idrt ™ '  Jfcsic ww JL, ,, ? lt ' M mm 10 I Back row: Manager Marty Ball, Pompton Lakes, New Jersey; Walt Southworth, Georgetown, Kent; Frank Lerchen, Detroit; Walt Piggott, Benton Harbor; Stan Malec, Hamtramck; Lewis Cramer, Detroit; Trainer Edward Gabel.

Western ' s 1950 baseball team finished the season with 15 wins, 9 losses and 1 tie. Lacking the sun and out-of-doors practice the team won only one of its first five ball games. Finally getting their hitting eye, the Broncos won 14 of their next 15 contests, including 1 1 victories in a row. However, the long season claimed several more losses before Western could enter into the N.C.A.A. play-offs. Mid-American Conference runner-up Ohio University then defeated the Maher nine in a close game. Individually the outstanding players for Western were all seniors. Jerry Hogan topped all pitchers with six wins. His best performance was against the University of Michigan team when he allowed only three hits in a 5-1 win. Don Groggel was the best Bronco batsman, edging out sophomore outfielder Len Johnston. Groggel ended with a .353 average while Johnston batted .352. Second baseman Jim Coleman finished with a respectable .328. 7950 BASEBALL 251 Brony cuts off a Spartan run Safe at home with a four-bagger. Gene Schlukebii The Wisconsin Badgers spoiled the 1950 opener for the Broncos with a 7-5 win. Ted Bauer ' s three-run double and Len Johnston ' s three hits highlighted the losing effort. Western started on its spring trip by losing to Ohio State 9-5 and then tying the Big Ten team 4-4 the next day. Playing Ohio University in two MAC games, the Broncos split the pair, winning 14-4 and losing 3-2. Hogan pitched a five-hitter and Coleman ' s four hits featured the win. Ohio scored two runs in the last of the ninth for their win. Returning to Kalamazoo, Coach Maher ' s nine pounded out an 8-1 win over a bitter rival, Notre Dame. Hogan allowed the Irish only four hits as Wilson and Schlukebir hit home runs for the Broncos. One week later Jerry Hogan and Don Edwards pitched the Western team to 4-1 and 4-2 wins over the Miami Redskins. Len Johnston continued his heavy stickwork to boost his average to .484 for the season. Travelling to Ann Arbor, the Broncos battled the Wolverines down to the last out before succumbing 8-7. Scotty Wilson sparked a ninth inning rally that accounted for three runs and Don Groggel garnered three hits including a tremendous 450 foot homer. Returning to Hyames Field was just what the team needed as they took two MAC games from Cincinnati, 13-8 and 26-4. Hogan won his fourth game of the year in the opener and Sellers breezed through the second encounter. Groggel, Johnston, and Schlukebir each got five hits in the series as Western took over first place in the Mid-American Conference. The Ball State Cardinals were next to feel the sting of Bronco bats, losing two 1 1-5 decisions to the Brown and Gold nine. Don Groggel scored two runs with a first inning homer and Len Johnston followed this up with a four-bagger good for three runs in the second frame. Lefty Frank Lerchen got the victory. The second game was called at the end of five innings because of rain. Sophomore Hank Jedynak was credited with the win. Western Michigan journeyed to Indianapolis next to battle the Butler Bulldogs. Needing two wins to stay on top of the M AC race, the Maher-men did just that. Stan Malec ' s double scored two runs and all that Don Edwards needed for a 2-1 win. Hits by Wilson, Johnston, and Coleman in a seventh inning uprising gave the Broncos a 6-2 win in the second game. Bruce Sellers gave up only three hits. The Michigan Wolverines, Big Ten leaders, were the victims of a Jerry Hogan three- hitter at Hyames Field. A four-run first inning gave the home team a lead they never dropped. Gene Schlukebir ' s single with the bases loaded was the big blow. The final score, 5-1 . Western Reserve played host to the Broncos who won their second straight MAC baseball title with 16-0 and 2-1 wins over the Redcat ' s nine. Don Edwards gave up only two hits in the opener. Schlukebir had a single, double, and triple to pace a 17 hit attack. The second game was a different affair though, as the two teams were tied, until the seventh inning, at 1-1. A home run by Jim Coleman accounted for the first run and hits by Schlukebir, Malec, and Wilson resulted in the winning run. 7 950 BASEBALL 252 The Chicago University diamond squad was the 10th straight victim of a hard hitting Bronco team. Frank Lerchen coasted to a 16-3 win behind the solid swing- ing of his team-mates. Don Groggel got three hits in five trips, Jim Coleman had four for five, and Gene Schlukebir and Dick Bruny each had two for two and three walks. Western scored their 15th win of the season and their 11th in a row with a 7-3 win over the Michigan State Spartans. The game went to 1 1 innings before a bases-loaded single by Don Groggel and a two run double by Schlukebir gave the Broncos the game. Hogan pitched masterful ball all the way allowing nine hits. The State team returned the visit and scored a 5-1 decision on Hyames Field. A disputed play in the eighth inning gave rise to a four run MSC rally. Len Johnston blasted two triples and scored the only run for Western. The Broncos visited the Iowa Hawkeyes and lost two ball games to the red-hot Big Ten power. Iowa won the first game 3-0 on a one-hitter pitched by Glen Drahn and the next day they overcame a three run Western lead to win, 6-3. Western Michigan closed out their secson at South Bend, Indiana. An inspired Notre Dame team dealt the Broncos their eighth loss of the season, 8-7. In the NCAA play-offs on the Michigan State campus, Coach Charlie Maher ' s team fell before MAC rival Ohio University, 4-2. The game was tightly played all the way but the Ohioans made their slim lead hold good. Western finished with a 1 5 and 9 record.

Leading 4-3 in the last of the ninth, Western Pitcher Rudy Hill was the victim of a two run home-team rally. Bob Steinke led both teams with three hits in four trips to the plate. Behind the superb pitching of Jim Dalton, the Western yearlings won their first game of the season, 14-1, from the Fort Custer nine on Hyames Field. Dalton struck out 16 and limited the soldiers to just three hits. Max Lee garnered four hits and Bill Hayes hit a home run to pace the Colts ' attack. Travelling to Flint to play the Junior College, Coach Tom Slaughter ' s team scored a 6-2 win. Dalton fanned 13 J. C. batsmen and gave up only three hits. Bob Steinke ' s hitting featured a Western rally that broke a 2-2 tie. Central Michigan ' s fine Frosh team handed Western their second loss of the season 7-3, on Hyames Field. The Colts then trounced Fort Custer for the second time, 19-4. A bases-loaded homerun by Fred Russell in the seventh inning put Western ahead. The Frosh added 10 more runs in a big eighth inning. Chet Finch was the winning pitcher. The freshman team won their fourth game with a convincing 10-3 score over Grand Rapids Junior College. Bob Laird and Lucius Jackson each had three hits in four trys. Rudy Hill coasted behind the 1 2- hit attack for his first win. A ninth inning single scored the deciding run as the Central Michigan frosh dealt Western their third loss, 4-3. Lefty Jim Dalton struck out 13 but gave up 12 hits. The Colts, behind the hitting and pitching of Rudy Hill, defeated Hope College, 2-0, at Holland. Hill allowed only five hits and he got two of the Frosh ' s four singles himself. The two runs were scored in the ninth inning with Max Lee ' s squeeze bunt accounting for the winning run. The Bronco Frosh lost a heart-breaking 7-6 game to Hope College on Hyames Field. It was the last game of the year for two teams and it was not decided until the last out had been registered. The lead changed hands five times and a two run ninth inning rally fell short of winning the game for the Colts. Chet Finch, Bob Laird, and Al Horn were the big guns in the Frosh offense. 255 The team takes a sprint around the field to warm up before practice begins. With only four regulars returning to the Hyames Field diamond, Coach Charlie Maher is somewhat pessimistic about the 1951 season. However, with such proved players as catcher Dick Bruny, shortstop Scotty Wilson, outfielder Len Johnston, and pitcher Don Edwards the nucleus for another MAC championship team is realized. Lettermen Francis Green, Chuck Mikulas, and Frank Lerchen also return to bolster a sophomore-dominated squad. Speculation would narrow down some of the players to these possible starters: Al Cater or Bill Hayes at first, Dave Gottschalk or Jack Dobbs at second, Wilson at short, John Broski or Bob Wright at third, and Len Johnston, Max Lee, and Francis Green in the outfield. Bruny will get the call as catcher. Edwards and Lerchen will head a young pitching staff. 7 957 BASEBALL 256 Time out from proctice for a few tips from Coach Patanelli. The schedule calls for 12 games with Big Ten teams, 8 Mid-American Conference games, and two games each with Washington of St. Louis and Notre Dame. The schedule does not allow Western any soft pickings and the competition will be stiff enough to threaten the Bronco ' s dominance of Mid-West baseball. 1951 SCHEDULE March 30 — Washington University March 31 — Washington University Apri Apri ' Apri Apri Apri Apri Apri May ' May ' May ' May ' May May ' May ' May May May May May May June June 6 — Illinois 7 — Illinois 1 3 — Cincinnati 1 4 — Cincinnati 24 — Michigan 27 — Ohio State 28 — Ohio State 2 — Michigan State 4 — Western Reserve 5 ■ — ■ Western Reserve 1 1 — Ohio University 1 2 — Ohio University 15 — Michigan State 1 8 — Miami University 19 — -Miami University 22 — Michigan 25 — Iowa 26 — Iowa 28 — Wisconsin 29 — Wisconsin 1 — Notre Dame 2 — Notre Dame Mid-American Conference Games Jerry Hogan, Western ' s ace pitcher, winds up. 257 Nancy Anderson, Char Kent, Lois Cree, Carolyn Johnson, Helen Stebbins.

On April 29, 1950 was the opening date of the 1950 outdoor track season for Western. Coach Clayton Maus ' Broncos traveled to the windy city of Chicago to meet the Loyola Ramblers in a dual meet. The day turned out to be a very cold, windy, dirty, and losing day for the Bronco thinclads. Results turned towards the Broncos because they took an 82 to 49 beating. The next week found Coach Maus ' cinder men at home competing against the ever formidable rival of the Central Michigan Chippewas. After coming home from the windy city, the Broncos found it well worth their time because here they gained their first victory of the outdoor season as they defeated the Chippewas 93 Vi to 37 Vi. Western ' s track team seemed to be gathering steam when they were hosts to two strong Mid-American Conference teams at home. The Broncos for the second con- secutive time walked off with first place honors in a very close triangular meet with Butler and Cincinnati. The final score of this triangular meet was Western 60 V2 , Butler 57V2, and Cincinnati 53. With a weeks rest before meeting the powerful Marquette Hilltoppers, the Broncos lost their well needed punch against the Hilltoppers at Kalamazoo when the Maus- men fell 83 to 48. 1950 TRACK 260 TRACK RECORDS, 1950 TRACK Track Coach Clayton Maus After being at home for the last three meets the cinder men took to the road for Oxford, Ohio, where they met the top flight Miami Redskins in a dual meet. Results of this meet turned against the Broncos in a stunning defeat 93 to 29. This was the second time these two schools had ever met in a dual meet, up to that time it always had been for the Mid-American Conference title. Two records fell during the course of the afternoon. These came when Western ' s Swift Noble broke the school ' s discus record with a throw of 138 feet 9 inches. The other record to fall by the wayside came in the pole vault, Miami ' s Bob Walters vaulted 13 feet 8 inches to break their school record in this event. With a little over a week ' s rest the Broncos were host to the 34th State Intercol- legiates. The Broncos grabbed points in about every event, but Michigan Normal ' s team balance again won the meet for them. The final scoring went like this: Mich- igan Normal 1 1 4 Vi , Western 37, Wayne 27, Central Michigan 24, Albion 16, Kalamazoo 4, Detroit 3, Michigan 2 Vi , and Calvin 1. 261 : ;. : ; : ' •■ i Jim Bull leaps for points in the Stadium pit. Al Rasikas a step ahead of Central ' s Qwinn in the hundred yard dash. Many of the experts were rather surprised to see the Broncos come out of the Mid- American Conference meet at Oxford, Ohio, with a second place to the powerful Miami thinclads. However, Western ' s cinder men had already shown steady improve- ment all year and had gained the much needed team balance late in the season. With a beautiful day for the conference meet five records tumbled. Three of these five were grabbed by the Redskins. The first record to fall was in the 100 yard dash when Phil Hamilton of Miami broke the tape in 9.9 seconds. The second record to be broken was by Reserve ' s Bob Patterson 23.3 second s in the low hurdles. The third record was taken by Western ' s George LeBrasseur in the shot put, when he put the shot 46 feet 1 1 V2 inches. The last two records were grabbed by Miami ' s strong crew. The first one came in the pole vault with Paul Walters going 13 feet 8 7 s inches and Miami ' s relay team cracking the tape at 3:25. The final team scoring was Miami U. 70, Western 38, Ohio U. 29 V2, Reserve 29, Cincinnati 26, and Butler 1 6 Vi • The Bronco cindermen closed the outdoor season at Milwaukee, Wisconsin, in the Central Collegiates with only George LeBrasseur placing. LeBrasseur collected fifth in the javelin throw with a heave of 182 feet 5 inches. 262 Teichman and Renick in action against Albion. The State A.A.U. meet at Yost Fieldhouse in Ann Arbor was the opening event of the indoor season for most of the colleges in the state, including Western. The only Broncos who placed in this meet were Russ Gabier and Jerry Leland. Gabier, while posting a time of 4:24.8, bested a field of Bill Hechmon, Michigan; Ron Barr, un- attached; Doug Parks, Michigan; and Dick Jarett, unattcched. The other Bronco that placed, Leland, snagged third in the novice mile with a time of 4:35. In the second meet the Broncos faced during that week was the Michigan State Relays at East Lansing. Here Gabier again won the mile in a better time of 4:22.5. Close behind him was Al Johnson of Drake. After two weeks of rest, Maus took his indoor men to South Bend to compete in the triangular meet between Notre Dame and Marquette. Here the Broncos came out on the losing end with the results going like this — Notre Dame 58 Vi , Marquette 49, and Western 23 Vi . Western ' s score was overshadowed by the performance of the three of her most agile stars. Russ Gabier, unbeaten in the mile, captured the mile once again in 4:21 to set a meet record and also establish a new indoor Bronco record. The other records to fall came in the high and low hurdles, when Al Renick of Western skimmed them in 7.8 and 7.2 respectively. Just a week after the triangular meet at South Bend the Mausmen traveled to Chicago to meet the University of Chicago in a dual meet. Here the Mausmen won their first dual meet of the indoor season, when they overpowered the Chicago boys 54 to 50. Later, the Broncos traveled to South Bend once again to compete in the Central Collegiate conference at the Notre Dame fieldhouse. Bronco ' s hopes of winning this title were very improbable due to the eligibility of certain men and injuries to a couple other speedsters. Highlight of the 1 1 school battle was James Bibb ' s world indoor record-equaling performance in the 60 yard dash. The Michigan Normal sprinter crossed the cinders in :06.1. The results of the indoor meet were Marquette 34%, Drake 30, Notre Dame 29, Michigan Normal 24%, Wayne 17%, Western 15, Bradley 1 3 ' 2 , DePaul 11, Baldwin Wallace 2, Butler 1 ' j, and Bowling Green 1. 7 957 INDOOR TRACK 263 7957 INDOOR TRACK Coach Maus had his Broncos in high gear two days later when they opened the 1951 home indoor season against the Albion Britons. Highlights of the evening besides the 65 to 30 drubbing the Broncs gave to the Britons were the three meet records that fell by the wayside. Gabier cracked two of these three, when he broke the mile and 880 yard run in 4:31.7 and 2:04.3. The other record to fall was recorded by the relay team, when they ran the 12 lap relay event in a record time of 3:07.1. Due to the flu setting in on the Bronco camp, Coach Maus was unable to take a representative group to the K. C. Relays and the Chicago Daily News Relays. The only Bronco to compete in the K. C. Relays at Cleveland was Gabier, who placed third in the mile. No one represented Western at Chicago in the Daily News meet. In the second home appearance of the indoor season the Broncos lost to the Wayne University Tartars in a dual meet 64 to 31. Four records fell with Wayne grabbing all honors in all four records. The first two records to fall were in the high jump when sophomore John Kline broke both a meet and gym record with a jump of 6 feet 5% inches. The other two records to tumble came in the shot put, when Al Jenkins put the shot 48 feet 6 inches to also break the meet and gym record. Four days later Coach Maus ' Broncos ended their 1951 home indoor track season in wonderful fashion, when they swamped the Central Michigan Chippewas 59 Vi to 35 V2 ■ One record was broken and three were tied. Gabier was the only Bronco to break a record and this came in the mile run, when he was clocked at 4:30.5. Records that were tied came in the pole vault and high and low hurdles. Sophomore Ron Cole of Western vaulted 12 feet along with John Kuras of Central Michigan. Al Renick tied both records in the hurdles, when he ran the high ' s in 5.4 and low ' s in 5.0.

The only other competition the freshmen ran against was in the State Intercollegiate at Kalamazoo. Here along with the varsity the yearlings placed second, but this time Wayne won the meet.

Front row: James Beadle, St. Clair; Charles Knox, Royal Oak. A small squad of Western Michigan golfers won seven of seventeen matches during the 1950 season. Coach Bill Perigo scheduled some highly respected opponents and the overall results were much better than the record would indicate. The Broncos placed fourth in the Mid-American Conference championship, thereby surrendering the MAC crown they had won in 1949. A southern trip was not too successful for the Broncos as they split with Tennessee, 11-7 and 3-15; lost to Miami, 3% -14%; and dropped matches to Butler, 2 Vi -9 Vi ; and Detroit, 3%-8% in a triangular meet. The linksmen bounced back to drub the University of Toledo by a 12-6 score. Playing host to Michigan State, Western lost 3 % -35 % • The Spartans returned the favor and scored another 35 % -3 % win at East Lansing. Coach Perigo ' s team travelled to Detroit and despite Stan Kolo ' s 72 stroke effort they lost by a score of 1 2 Vi -5 % . The next day, the Broncos scored their third win of the season with a 15% -2% triumph over Wayne University. Chuck Knox and Dick Hanna shot 77 ' s to pace the winners. Loyola edged out the home team by a 14-13 score and Valparaiso upset the Western golfers by a 14-4 count. The Kal- amazoo team evened things up by defeating Loyola 12-6. Kolo and Knox each shot 74 ' s. Playing a return match with the University of Detroit resulted in the final loss of the season, 8-10. Wayne and Toledo were the next victims of the linksmen in a tri- angular match played in Kalamazoo. The scores were 11-1 and 10-2. Western ended the season with a 13-5 win at Valparaiso. 1950 GOLF 268 In the Mid-American Conference championship the Broncos ' four-man team finished with 588 strokes and fourth place. The host team, Miami, was first with a combined 567; Butler was second with 568; Ohio third with 582; Western fourth; and Cincin- nati and Western Reserve finishing in that order. The varsity team was composed of Stan Kolo, Chuck Knox, Dick Hanna, and Jim Beadle. The Frosh golf team won their only match of the season with a 7V2-4V2 decision over the Grand Rapids Junior College team. Members of the squad were Dick Knox, Don Sprague, Tom Blake, Bob Bradford, and Ben Gorte. The 1951 prospects were a little uncertain for Coach Bill Perigo but an ambitious schedule assured the Bronco golfers plenty of competition. The season was com- pleted with the Mid-American Conference championships at Ohio University in Athens, Ohio.

Coach Ray Hap Sorenson ' s 1950 tennis team posted six wins and six defeats in a tough 12 match schedule over the regular season play. The Broncos walked off with the Mid-American Conference championship, though, and it was a fitting clim ax to a great season and the coaching of Sorenson. This was his first year as Western ' s tennis mentor. Playing four matches in a five-day trip down South, the netters scored two wins and lost two. The Vanderbilt Commodores spilled Western by a 6-3 score. Alabama managed to upset the visitors, 5-4. The Broncos found things more to their liking when they played the University of Mississippi. The 7-2 win was followed up by a 5-4 win over Southwestern at Memphis, Tennessee. The Number 3 doubles team decided the match. Returning to play above the Mason-Dixon line, Coach Sorenson ' s netmen blanked Wayne University, 9-0. Still on the road, the Broncos travelled to Cincinnati to play the MAC champions. The Bearcats won in convincing style, 7-2. At home on the Davis Street courts, Western copped victory number four for the season, with a lop-sided 8-1 decision. Powerful Notre Dame handed the team their fourth defeat, 6-3. 1950 TENNIS 270 1950 TENNIS The Toledo Rockets were no match for the fast improving Broncos and they were easy 8-1 victims. The match was played in Kalamazoo. Western scored their second win of the season over the University of Detroit but the outcome was not decided until the last doubles set had been played. The final score was 5-4 in favor of Western. Finishing up the season against the Big Ten ' s best, the netters lost to Northwestern 9-0 and also dropped an 8-1 match to Michigan State. Western Michigan ' s fine team balance brought the Broncos their first Mid-American Conference Tennis championship. The meet was held at Miami University. The Broncos scored a total of 14 points to win. Favored Cincinnati University was runner- up with 12 points. The Bearcats had won two MAC tennis crowns before this year. Miami, Ohio, Western Reserve, and Butler finished in that order. Yale Brandt won the Number 3 singles flight and Dave Kistler won the Number 4 singles flight for the new champions. The doubles combination of Brandt and Don Constant won the Number 1 doubles title. In the Central Collegiate Conference tournament Western placed third in a field of five. Michigan State and Notre Dame were ahead of the Broncos. Dave Kistler was the top scorer for Coach Sorenson, going to the finals of the Number 4 flight singles before losing.

Coach Ray Sorenson, in his second season as Western ' s tennis mentor, has had an outstanding record both as a player and a coach. He play ed three years of tennis at Western before coaching some great high school teams in Elkhart, Indiana. Last year his Western Michigan netters won the Mid-American Conference cham- pionship.

The Physical Education Department is composed of Western ' s most capable in- structors in the various field of athletics. The department provides for the instruction of physical education majors and minors and also conducts required courses for the general college student. Technical courses offered include; football, basketball, track, and baseball. The physical education student is also acquainted with boxing, tumbling, fencing, soc- cer, and other minor sports. The general student is required to take at least four hours of physical education which would include broad instruction in some of the above mentioned sports. The department and Western Michigan ' s physical education program have been responsible for placing many graduates in the teaching and coaching profession. The success is due to the fine cooperation between the different coaches and the use of the school ' s athletic facilities. PHYSICAL EDUCATION DEPARTMENT 274 Intramural Director Clayton Maus The most active season in the history of intramurals at Western kept Director Clayton Maus and his assistants busy from the first touch-football game to the organization of spring Softball teams. Touch football highlighted the fall program and Goddard Hall of the Vandercook League won the 1950 Championship with a thrilling 12-7 win over the Tri Beta ' s. The Game was well played despite a drizzling rain. Passes accounted for both of Goddard ' s touchdowns. Jack Overhiser twice threw to Dick Steele for six-pointers while the Beta boys scored on a last minute pass from MacCullum to Morse. MacCullum swept left end for the extra point. Players on the Champion Goddard team were Lyle Bartlett, Don McDowell, Jim Giddis, Royce VanderScheer, Don Miller, Fred Stewart, Jack Overhiser, Ken Waalkis, Jim Post, Dick Steele, Neil Van Dis, Bill Hanicken, Don Teichman, and Lloyd Jones. One of the largest turnouts for the intramural basketball season forced the some 52 teams to be divided into seven different leagues: four independent, two dormi- tory, and one fraternity. Following regular season play a tournament was held among the top teams of the various leagues to determine the school champion.

The game was hotly contested until the fourth quarter when the College boys outscored their rivals 17 points to 6. Bob Taylor scored 17 points for individual honors. Besides Taylor, other members of the winning College Inn team were Bob Laird, Bob Wright, John Aalbregtse, and Jim Boyd. Following the completion of the winter sports activities. Director Maus made plans for intramural Softball on a scale with the very successful football and basketball programs. There was also some interest in intramural track. Both Vandercook and Burnham dormitories coordinated their sports participations with the Intramural Department and added several minor events such as dorm table tennis tournaments and the like. Director Maus and those other men who assisted him throughout the season should be given much credit for the success with which the different activities were pro- moted. The officials for the games were on the most part provided by the Athletic Department and consisted of physical education majors or men who had had some experience in officiating. The cooperation of all those who had a hand in intra- murals made this year ' s competition and participation the best at Western.

The Women ' s Physical Education department is well known to Western ' s women because of the large part it plays during their college years. The staff is responsible for upholding and maintaining the goals to be strived for or obtained, both through the general program of physical education which all Western women participate in and the specific major and minor programs. Those students taking a major or minor curriclum receive many required courses which will adequately prepare a student for a career in the field. Emphasis is placed on a special feature of the department which benefits all women students — a course in individual gymnastics designed to correct postural defects that are observed when the student enters the department. Each student in this course takes a special series of exercises for her own personal postural defect. Watch the birdie is the secret to success in thi badminton game.

In addition to training physical education instructors and carrying out the general program, several Red Cross courses are offered which include swimming and first aid. These courses are designed to enable students to pass the tests given by a representative of that organization. At the conclusion of these tests, those students who pass receive their standard or instructor ' s certificate. Students interested in the curriculum of physio-therapy use the physical education department to obtain a major in physical education which may be used as a pre-requisite of physio-therapy. The women ' s department carries an active intra-mural athletic program, it is carried on under the direction of Miss Margaret Large, faculty sponsor and a student man- ager. The activities, varying according to the seasons, include badminton, volleyball, bowling, basketball, and softball. A new addition this year was a series of three open-house programs which were open to all students and included a variety of skills. A modern dance class practices a new dance routine. Girls take part in a folk dance during class. Coeducational social dancing classes were held weekly in the ballroom. Swing your partner rings out in the ballroom as the mixed square dancing class swings out. FALL SPORTS: As September approaches thoughts turn again from vacation to days at college. The Women ' s Gym is used every hour of the day. Some of the courses available at this time are: archery, badminton, swimming, volleyball, social dancing, square dancing, modern dance, hockey and soccer. WINTER SPORTS: When the snow flies, emphasis is placed on team sports where the girls spend a great deal of time on basketball. They also enjoy various types of dancing and individual sports.

The mission of the senior division, Army ROTC, is to train college students as junior officers who have the qualities and attributes essential to their progressive and continued development as officers in a component of the United States Army, par- ticularly in the Reserve components, the Organized Reserve Corps and the National Guard. In addition, this unit will provide a major source of junior officers for the Regular Army through the annual selection of a number of distinguished military graduates for direct Regular Army appointment. During the yea r various military societies were organized: the Saber and Key, an honorary society formed of selected cadets in third and fourth year ROTC; Phi Chi Eta, the national Quartermaster fraternity; and Epsilon Delta Gamma, a crack drill team composed of selected first and second year basic course students. ROTC students do not spend all their time drilling, for many hours are spent in the classroom. 281 Sgt. Beacham issues uniforms to ROTC students. Cadet officers line up for shots preparatory for summer camp. The first annual Military Ball was a feature of the college year bringing to Western a touch of military ceremony. The crowning of the regimental sponsor and her court made more impressive by the Arch of Sabers formed by the Epsilon Delta Gamma Honor Guard was the highlight of the evening for the uniformed cadets and their dates. The final touch was given to the ROTC year by the annual parade and review held in the second week of May. Major Brown instructs basic students in nomenclature and disassembly of the M-l rifle. Sgt.
