Jle Ujile wee j a-slc loe lell W Jo Three The chronicle of a college ear is at best a poor effort at portraying the real college spirit, but we have attempted to throw some light on every phase of our college life. We have endeavored to catch the West- minster spirit of 1922-23 and pass it on to you. We have tried to pre- serve in this book memories of a few events, a few victories, a few cases, a few defeats, and a few joys. It can be only a dash of passing pageantr ' . If the contents of this book bring back to those who have been West- minster students fond memories of the past and atford you many an hour of entertainment, and give to tiiose who have not been Westmin- ster students some idea of our col- lege life, we feel that we have accomplished our purpose.

To Rev. George C. Vincent, D. D., be- longs the credit of projecting it. Several places competed for the location of the new institu- tion, New Wilmington winning the prize through the energy of a few of the citizens of the community. It was placed under the care of twelve persons, six each chosen by the Presby- teries of Shenango and Ohio of the Associate Presbyterian Church. In 1859 the Board of Directors was enlarged, and the appointment of its twenty-four members was committed to the First Synod of the West of the United Presbyterian Church. In 1872 the Synod of Pittsburgh was associated with the First Synod of the West in the control of the college, twelve members of the Board to be appointed bv each. Within recent years, the alumni have been given representation in the board b ' eight members additional, and the Board itself has been given power to add eight more, making a total membership of forty. The successive presidents of the Board include the following names: David Goodwillie, Joseph McClintock, Samuel .Alexander. D. H. A. .McLean, Joseph Pressly, David R. Kerr, R. B. Ewing, E. N. McElree. ami John S. McKee; the office being held for quite long periods by Drs. McLean. Pressly. and Kerr The college was born in due time. The men who founded it were wise to discern the need of the time and the future. It provided the opportunity of education for both sexes for a large scope of country that was bottled by Presbyterians of various hues — Seceders and Covenanters and Old School. It had immediate success, students flocking in from all sides. The little building in which it began in the spring of 1852. soon became too small for the accommodation of its classes. In some of the earlier years of its existence, the aggregate enrollment was as great as it has been at any time since. It commanded respect and confidence b - the abilit - and the character of the men who were set over it. They were men of strong intellect and resolute purpose, and they made great sacrifices that they might establish and promote the institution that was dear to them as an instrument of service to Christ and His Church. Rev. Dr. Owens, speaking in 1894 on The Progress of Wesminster in Recent Y ears. pays this brief tribute to the men of his da ' as a student: Comparing the faculty of today with that of say thirty years ago, we find an increase of members and an advance in methods of instruction. Yei to say we have lost nothing in the character and quality of our teachers, is to pay a very high compliment to those who fill the chairs. Such men as Drs. James Patter- son, George C. Vincent, William Findley, Wm. . Mehard, Andrew Black, Prof. J. B. Cum- mings. are not often equalled and seldom surpassed. The fruit of the labors of these men is seen in the cultivated intellect, lofty purpose and large usefulness of her long and honorable roll of graduates. In several churches and in many countries they serve God in the ministry. They are found in Egypt and India, in China. Siam, and Persia. In all parts of our ctjuntry they occupy positions of importance — in educa tion, in business, in law and medicine. They are judges and bankers and editors — men of influence. Especially are they found in the ranks of the ministry and laity of the United Presbyterian Church, which established it to provide educated c)ung men for her ministry and educated men and women for her service in the churches. S lie 3 uturc of fflcstininstcr THE ARGO staff has opened before me an inviting door and crowned the executive with a coveted distinction in chissif ing him with those who see visions. For Westminster I see a vision of a future in which even now a rosy-fingered dawn is gilding the emerging hill-tops with the traceries of light. The future of the College, which 1 see, will be builded worthily of the past and the present because the builders whom 1 see fabricating the structure were long ago described for me: Men my brethren, men the icorkers, ever reaping something neix) — I ' hat which they have done but earnest of the things that they shall do. ilh a faculty of scholars, expert in specialty, co-operative, sympathetic. Chris- tian; with a student body enthusiastic, earnest, loyal to the core, with a vision which is sweeping the fields of art, of literature, of science, of social life and politics with the searching scrutiny of an unsullied sincerity; encouraged by an Alumni Body every da - in every way becoming better and better in interest, in loyalty and in resourcefulness, all guided by a Board of Trustees ever planning for enlarge- ment, development and efTiciency, — how fascinating becomes the vision splendid of the future of Westminster! High and exacting standards of scholarship and character, demanded and pro- vided for by the Board; maintained and fostered by the Faculty, and increasingly delivered by a Student Body of superior excellence, are developing those builders of the future who cannot fail to maintain Westminster with her traditions majestic, crowned with everlasting light. Southward from Old Main upon the New Campus the Board has seen a vision of buildings of beauty and convenience; upon her athletic fields and floors the Alumni see visions of ictories achie ed by the co-operation of us all in a program of genuine physical education; within her halls of learning the 1-aculty see a revival of the desire for those disciplines achieved onl ' by an address to the college curriculum. .. And as 1 observe the Student Body of the present year, m ' heart w arms within me as 1 look toward the future. 1-or 1 believe in the contagion of loyalty, confi- dence, co-operation and devotion. Never was the present group of students sur- passed in these altitudes toward the College. None was ever assembled wfio could more truly sing; How faint or fall or yield, zchate ' er withstand us Thy presence in a heart, a holy fire. Youngest of all Thy sons, we hail and greet Thee, With all our lives, for service in Thy sight! With these attitudes of the youngest of all her sons becoming truly contagious, all her sons and daughters, scattered far and near upon seats of strategy, shall rise up and call her blessed, Our Alma Mater, glorious, grand and true! Ten Eleven IWcstminstcr pii it Long years ago in Pcuusylvaiiia ' s hills. There lived a youth with mind and spirit free. Aspiring, yearning to do noble deeds, To give his life in service to the world, To do his part in God ' s eternal plan. And ever at his tasks or at his play. A strain of music sang itself into His heart — a song his mother oft had sung. A song his elder brother used to love: And as he joined his voice in childish treble, The lad oft wondered what the words might mean — It ' s the old West minster spirit, .■ nd it ' s g H}d enough for me. Years pass. The youth has left his father ' s home .hid come lo Fair Westminster ' s halls that he May sit at Alma Mater ' s feet and learn, That he may mingle with Westminster ' s sons . nd daughters, and that he himself may know The meaning of the words he oft bad sung — Westminster spirit good enough for me. Tour busy, happy years pass swiftly by, Tour years of growth of body, mind, and soul. Each day adds force and pbwer to his will: Through difficulties met and overcome. He gathers strength for life ' s great balllefield. But best of all, there burns within his soul Westminster ' s spirit, lo, ' a holy fire. ' Westminster spirit, this it means to him — Good Will toward all beneath the White and Blue, jood Will and Friendship for all noble hearts, Good Will and Friendship over all God ' s world. Westminster spirit, this it means to him — Self-sacrifice , when Duty ' s stern voice calls ' To lands afar to spread the Gospel ' s light. Service — this it means, at home, abroad, .4 life of Service given to the world. Westminster spirit, this it means to him — Determination and the Will To Do, To strive, to fight, although the day seems lost. To .Mma .Mater thus he lifts his voice: Hine can we falter. then. if thou command us; ' How can we fear, if thou dost us inspire? Thus guided by her voice he presses on .4 nd wins the battle for the cause of Right. West minster spirit — this at last it means — Devotion to the banner. White and Blue, A heart filled full of Loyalty and Love Lo old West minster for her gifts to him, .4 Love that guards and honors her fair name, I he richest gem bclieeeii the Farth and Heaven. Bright college days are past, and now the youth. In spirit, courage, years, has grown a man. Though C( llege days are o ' er, there is a life To live. The campus bcniiuis expand until They reach the farthc ! rcgit ii of the earth: And lo! Westminster ' -, -pml shil pervades I ' heni all. H glozes. and lighlcns all the world; H reigns in hearts of true men everywhere. High ill the heai ' ens on a field of blue Hang soft and massy clouds of fleecy white ; Westminster ' s banner cheers each loyal heart. The man who, as a youth, once yearned to know I he meaning of the song his mother sang. Has learned it fully. The spirit of WesI iiiiiisler hispires his life. In days of toil and care, Ihis selfsame spirit helps him to be strong: In every troublous hour of stress and strife. This spirit gives him courage to endure, To struggle on till victory is won. Lhiis daily, through a long and noble life. The spirit of West minster blesses him — Bestows a benediction through the years, .ind as life ' s shadows lengthen toward the grave. Lie thinks again of the song Ins mother sang, . nd lifts his trembling voice in gratitude: It ' s the old West minster spirit. It ' s the old Westminster spirit. It ' s the old Westminster spirit, .And it ' s good enough for me. Twelve Science Hall Fourteen Mtisic Hall . Out Beyond Limits Twciity-tvvo Student Be WESTMINSTE Twenty-five 1 9 2 CHARLES I-REEMAN.

Foster, Praulcnt The Passing Show of 1923 Depicted in Prose How time flies. It seems but a fortnight ago that we invaded for the first time the quaint old vilhige of New Wilmington. .And now here we are on the last lap of our college course, and in a few short days the fame of this illustrious class of ' 23 will have to be recorded in the historv of Westminster ' s Hasbeens. What would we not give if we could but turn back the universe and live the past four years over again? But unluckilv our education has not endowed us with that power; so we must content ourselves with onl ' their memor ' . As we now turn our memories back we recall our first years here at Westminster, days when we were busily engaged in class scraps, football, basketball, and forensic contests. Of course we were victorious for the most part, but whenever forced to taste defeat we did not become discouraged but rather made our defeats serve as an inspiration for further efforts. We also recall the friendships formed during those fust two ears. We shall alwavs think of our professors and teachers of those early days as our friends. Then came the reconstruction and we were forced to adapt ourselves to a new situation. It was not easy for us to meet the new requirements but without a murmur we set ourselves to the task. And now it is with a sincere love for Westminster that we leave her sacred halls to take up the tremendous responsibilities of trying to make the world a better place to live in. And as we pass out our last word to ou who remain is Carry On. Forty-two The Cis 1 3f 1923 (CUiss of l J2:i (Dfficci ' B lilizabeth Garvin Vice-President Alice Randies Secretary Harry H.

We scored our first success over the Sophomores by removing all of their posters but were later defeated in the flag rush. The Freshman-Sophomore foot- ball game resulted in a tie. Later, they defeated us in debate. The inter-class basketball season ended in a tie. In the spring we were more fortunate and won both the tug-of-war and the inter-class track meet. The next fall we found our numbers somewhat diminished but we more than made up for the loss by our increased class and college spirit. We won both the flag rush and the football game from the Freshmen. Later in the year our debate team defeated the Freshmen. Again the inter-class basketball season ended in a tie. We returned as Juniors in the fall of 1022 determined to make the ' ear the best of the first three. The Hallowe ' en partv and the Junior pla ' were two big events of the year. The Argo afforded many hours of hard work for us. Before us there is one more year in which to do our best for our class and especially for. our college. Already we have done a great deal for both, on the platform, on the athletic field, and in the class-room. Our greatest ambition is to make our Alma Mater proud of us, and to this end we will bend the efforts of our last vear at Westminster. Forty-six Lelia B. Anderson Germantown Kaskctl all Squad (2) C.

CLASS 1924 c (jLd(]uJ Y uu 1 Seventy-one Olin Phipps, Presiih ' iit Let Us Tell It To You One memorable da} ' in September, 1 )21. there assembled upon the campus of Westminster, a ertlant crop of about one hundred thirt -li ' e breshmen. Coming as belles and heroes from our home towns, we expected to take the college b ' storm. W ' e were soon made to realize how green we were and set about to remedy that condition. The lirst thing we noticed was the apparent willingness of all others to aid us in this laudable ambition, especially the Sophomores. Those early da_ ' s ma_ ' ell be called The times that tr ' men ' s souls. After the light in the Brown I louse and the ensuing ride through the neighbor- ing countrv, we were conv inced that the Sophomores were enemies of all mankind. This impression was heightened when we awoke one fine morning to find staring at us from every corner, some very unusual posters with their thou shall and thou shall not, governing our future conduct. Insult was addeei when we found the dainty green numerals we had so carefully painted the night before totally obliterated with black paint. While we were meeting defeat in the fiag rush, the annual I reshmen-Sophomores football game, and the inter-class debate, we were acc]uiring that class spirit and lo alt ' which has characterized us ever since. The triumph we won in inter-class basketball was the first taste of the joy of victory. Since then we have continued achieving great successes. Oftimes these victories have been in the still of night when the town was w rapped in darkness. Seventy-two Well do we recall ihe da ' that the town ujion arisin was greeted bv our numerals, the famed ' 2 , glaring defiantl - at them from the tower of Old Main. Even better do we recall the hours of hard labor spent scrubbing those same famed figures off. Our last, but bv ' no means our least ictory as Freshmen w as the winnin of the inter-class track meet by a large margin. Our greatest success was the conciuering of our studies and the rising to the v orth ' rank of Sophomores. Since we ha l once been inexperienced and ignorant Frosh we knew just how to meet an ' delicate situation that might arise with that class. W ' e helped them in all such matters as the purchasing of chapel seats and side-walk prixileges. In fact we became as some say, experts in creating critical positions. But such taunts must be passed over lightlv. Mazing, on a moelerate scale, pla s an important part in the recreational phase of college student life. To prove our sterling worth we won the flag rush after a close and hard light. The football game was also gloriously won against great odds. Merely to a ' oid being selfish v e gave the inter-class debate to the l-reshmen. We also lost the class basketball championship v, hich we had won the ear before, but we put up a hard fight. W e !ia e been well represented in other lines besides studies and inter-class contests. We ha e contributed to the arsity football, baseball, track, and both girls ' and bo s ' basketball squads. A goodly number of our class were also mem- bers of the Boys ' ani.1 Girls ' Glee Glubs. We were not in W estminster long until we realized that we had entered the college at a ver - critical stage in its development. Westminster customs and ideals became a part of our life and we eagerly seized all opportunities to advance the new regime. We have been found read} ' and willing to do our part. In the two ) ' ears that are to follow we hope to be found e en more tlependable, and we are hoping to contribute greater things to make both our class and our college proud of us. We feel that our historv and our class life are closely bound up in the changing Westminster. Ma her historv ' as well as ours be one of ads ancement.

Seventy-five Seventy-seven Harvey Moore, President Gleanings From the Greenhouse On the 19th of September, U)2i there arrived on the campus of Westminster College, a class of one hundred and three members, which thought to show the world that it was destined to do big things. Although characteristically confi- dent to excess at times, the worth of the class in the estimation of Dr. Love is shown by his assertion that this class was the best lot of Freshmen that ever par- ticipated in making history for old Westminster since 1 have been here. The Days That Tried Our Souls Shortly after our advent here, the realization that we were Freshmen was forcefully brought to us. Two great forces, the Sophs and and the upper classmen, constantly made us conscious of their presence, even to prescribing our dress and actions. Despite the fact that they gave to the girls the vests of the fellows, and to the fellows the middies and bloomers of the girls, our good looks remained un- impaired, and our spirit undaunted, as ever. The Flag Rush After a night of excitement while exploring the dark lands to the north of us, the Freshmen entered the fight with great determination to revenge the wrongs committed them on the night or perhaps the nights before this memorable e ent. The fight was even on both sides, with the exception of the two minutes in which Seventy-eight Jack Ikn les climhed the pi)lc, caught the llaj of ' 2t and (Hilled in ain to tear it down. To persons of less determination, this woukl have been a discouragement, but we bravely took our defeat and went ahead with a do (jr die spirit. Our Contributions to Westminster Athletics The class of ' lb ct)ntributed three lettermen to the varsity football team as well as a number of bench warmers, better known as scrubs. W hen it came to ofTerings to the varsity basketball squad, — well the whole college took otT their hats to us, for 1 letra was a sensational light of the quintet. This basketball star has brought honor to his college as well as his class by amassing a greater number of points than any other of the Tri-State league. A team is as strong as its reserves, and the squad contains many reliable Freshmen reserves. Not only have our fellows been loyal in upholding the Blue and White, but also our girls have taken active part in athletics. Mary McLaughrey was a de- pendable regular. Annual Freshman-Sophornore Football Game ith high spirits, which we later discovered to amount to overcontidence, we entered into the annual l- ' reshman-Sophomore football game with odds greatly in our favor. The tables turned, however, and the Sophs romped away with a 20-0 victorv. Nuf ced. Class Basketball After a start which seemed to assure us the championship we were rudel - and abruptly checked one afternoon by the team representing the junior class. We are unable to tell the outcome t)f the race, however, since at the time when this book goes to press we and the Juniors are tied for the lead with (i e victories and one defeat each. We feel sure that the play-off will result in (jur favor, giving us the championship. Freshman-Sophomore Debate Revenge for the defeat handed us b ' the Sophs in the football game came to us in the form of a victory over them in the annual debate. Our team, composed of Aloore, Wallace, and Wilson, met the Sophs at ever ' turn and gained a 2-1 elecision. Our Aim With this feather in our cap as a starter, we hope to grow to full plumage. Keep your eyes on the class of ' 26. We hope to write man - pages both in the history of old Westminster and in the history of the world.

Within late years, this year ' s football season included, our teams ha e been rather unpleasantly unsuccess- ful as far as the matter of games v on and lost is concerneel. Several s ' stems were tried without any apparent success in anv of them. In spite of disappointments and adverse criticism, the student body has aKva s supported these policies. W ith the ad ent of the formation of the .Xthletic Council, a-new era in athletics is looked forward to. The main plan of the new ystem is to relieve the president ' s office of any athletic administration, except that which is related to the academic standing. The plan was drawn up in early December. 1 22, by a number of alumni interested in their . lma Mater, and it was ratified b ' the Board of Trus- tees shortl - after. In l-ebruarw 102 3. the student bod - of the college heartilv endorsed the plan. The Council is composed of three members of the Alumni body, three members of the Board of Trustees, three members of the faculty, and three students, one from each of the upper classes. This board is to have complete control of all ph sical education and athletics at Westminster. They are to elect the tjraduate Manager, who is to be responsible to them. An athletic director is to be appointed and to work under this council, but is to be retained as a member of the facultv, in the official position of Director of Physical Hducation. Seasonal coaches are to be provided b - and subject to this board. The financing of the plan is to be in the hands of the alumni and student bod ' . the form of budget to be drawn up when necessar} ' . This new plan is Westminster ' s first approach to real eflicienc - in the handling of our athletics, and promises to put us back upon the athletic map, in the px)sition that rightfull ' belongs to us. It is the desire of the organization to put capable men into athletics, who are not only athletes, but are imbued with the old West- minster Spirit, and are real men on the field as well as in the class room. Our president and alumni realize the boldness of the new pr oject, and count upon the unqualified support of the student bodv to carr - it out in full. The outlook is blight and success is assured, because Westminster never fails. I ' .iglity-foiir JiillN . 1 lI.EAN JuLIEN lllkKIN(, lie im Westminster %tnt It is spirit that makes college life the brightest phase in man ' s experience; the most pleasant of all his memories. Memories of Westminster are vivid, and in every Westminster man we find evidences of a mysterious something inherent in him that makes him a marked man. It inevitably comes to the fore in all his activities, and designates him as a follower of the Blue and White. For want of a better name, this indefinable something is called The Old Westminster Spirit. In it is invohed the desire to be true, loyal, honest, industrious; to fight hard and win fairlv: to do ones best and be magnanimous in victory and gracious in defeat. A man in horn the Westminster Spirit is found is sometimes defeated, but never licked. This force, like e ery other great force, requires guidance: so that it is not mis- directed into improper channels. To this important task the cheerleaders are assigned. It is their dutv to always keep the Westminster Spirit at its highest point of efTicitncy, and to direct it upward in the achievement of its highest purpose. Nobly have our cheerleaders performed this task, and to them goes the credit for the potency of the Old Westminster Spirit. IJighty-six Westminster tltletic Cmtndl The Westminster athletic council is composed of three members from the b(jard of trustees, three members from the alumni bod ' , three faculty members and three members of the student body. It is understood that, as to that representation from the facultx ' , that the President of the College is to be in that group. InU) the hands of this council is placed complete control of the athletic situation of W estminster. The} ' will hold annual meetings, one at least every year, probably at Commencement time. It is the privilege of this board to appoint coaches, gradu- ate managers, athletic directcjr, and any other office that will come under their jurisdiction. . ' s this council will not function properl} ' till the year after this annual is pub- lished, it is impossible to sav just how efficient it v,ill be. As the system looks, it should be the most efficient machine for athletic management in any college in the countrw There is no question about the ability of the men on this council, and the success of the whole thing will ultimatel) ' come to rest in the hands of the student body of the college. The real purpose of the council is to correlate athletics and all that is contingent to the best interests of the school; it is only right and proper that our athletic standard should be as high as our scholasic standard. This council is representative of every faction entered into the upbuilding of West- minster, and it should be able to raise Westminster ' s athletics to the high place where they belong. Seeing the need for intra-mural atliletic competition in our school. Ph ' sical Director .McOuiston ch ' afted a constitution that would take care of such an organ- ization, and submitted it to the fraternities and clubs on the campus. . meeting was called b ' the Pi Rho Phi fraternil ' and held in their club rooms. .-Xs the benefits that would be derixeil from sucli an organization seemed obx ' ious to all those present, the constitution was accepted and it was suggested that it be sub- mitted to the faculty athletic committee for appro al. This approval was granted, and the new organization ' s first function was the formation of a basketball league. The association is go ' erned by a board consisting of a general manager, usually the Director of . thletics of the (College, and two representatives from each fra- teinitx ' or club in the association. This board has power to draft all schedules, judge all protests, formulate eligibilitx ' rules and settle all questions that might arise. This SN ' stem of intra-mural athletics has pro en to be of great advantage in larger institutions of the countrw and there is no reason why it should not prove to be an asset to the spirit of W estminster. liighty-niiu; JEROME WRIGHT ROBERT DICKSON D. n. McQUlSTON Capt. and Capt.-Elect |err entered Westminster in the fall of ' 10 and made his letter in football at the verv start. During the year of ' 20- ' 21 he attended the Cornell Agricultural School, and was sadly missed from our teams. In the fall of ' 21 he again entered Westminster and held down the position of end, and at the close of the season was elected to captain the next year ' s team. In the selection of Class B football teams, he was picked for left-end b - ev- ery sporting editor in the Tri- State. Jerry was again chosen to be captain of next year ' s team, such action being a rare thing, but in Wright we have a man of sterling lead- ership qualities, and we are sure that next season ' s team will be crowned with success. Manager When Butler failed to re- turn to school at the start of the season, Bob was ap- pointed as manager of the team. He deserves much cre- dit for the way he managed the affairs of the team during the entire season. A natural business ability, coupled with a desire to give the team the best, made him a popular leader both at home and abroad. Somewhat of an athlete himself, he understood how to give his men the best of care and training. Mis skill in handling the detail work while on trips, enabling the coach to spend all of his tim-e vx ' ith the team, is one of the features of Dickson ' s work. Coach To Coach McQuiston goes the credit for seeing Westmin- ster through one of the most difficult seasons in its history. A graduate of the school him- self, he had the ideals and traditions of the Blue and White embodied in his soul, and always gave the squad the best that was in him. From the opening of training season until the end, Dan was per- sistently hammering his team into shape with all the abilits ' and persistence he could. When one considers the ob- stacles that he had to over- come, there is no denying the fact that the season was as successful as could have been expected. It is the unanimous opinion of the squad that he gave the best he had for the 1922 football season. Ninuty-ont: 1 NORMAN IIOF.LZLE Full-back I- ' la ing his last far for the ' estmin .ter eleven, Norm certainl - put his all into the game, lie not only carried the ball with his plunging tactics, but backed up the line in everv defensive plaw His absence from the squad next year will be a great loss, but his plaxing ilaxs will linger long in the memories of those wht) saw him in action. D.w iD FAwcnr r H, IJ -B, ( K After a year ' s absence, Dave returned to Westminster, the school that rightfully claims him, and once more thrilled the student body with his all around football ability, lie completed his fourth year of college football this fall, and it is with a deep regret that we lose this virile type of a true Westminster athlete. CLARENCE RANDALL Tackle Randv was also absent for a year, but returned with his old fight and pep. and was one of the most consistent line performers on Dan ' s eleven. 1 he backfield depended upon him to tear holes in the (}pponent ' s line. He has another year to play, and we expect great things from him. Ninety-two FRANK BLACK CeN IliR li.:n llic ri-jiiilar center IOliikI it expedient to lea e school, the next problem of the coach was to find a center, it was a difficult problem in mid-season, but L51ackie came through aiul held the position in fine st le. W ith a little more experience and coaching he will probablv- be a real consistent plaser, and it is with this hope that we look forward to his next ear (jn the squad. W ll.LIAM CLHARY QUARTF.R-BACK This fleet-footed star began his career with Central lligh of Hrie, and has carried his reputation down through the last two years with Westminster, lie plaved end and half-back, calling signals from the latter position with skill anti precision. Bill has two more ears with us. W ILBL R MACKLIN End Mack did not try for a position on the team (.luring his first year at college, because of an injured knee sustained during his last season in high school. The knee still bothered him this year, but despite this, his abilti ' to tackle and smear pla s proved him to be a reliable lineman. -Ninety-tlirfe KOBHR ' I ' ROESE Half-back Broadway was one of the man -, who for the first time, maile their appearance on Westminster ' s gridiron this year. Though a novice at the game, he soon showed tliat he had the stuff, and was soon hitting the ' arsit ' hue for the scrubs, aiui a httle later made one of the first string hacks, where we anticipate linding him next fall. LVLI: iil:. Di;KSt)N Tackle Henderson broke into college football in his iire ious ear at Westminster, but due to an injury, he did not show up as we had expected. ' I ' his fall he played tackle in a very capable manner, thus earning his letter. He was a fighting fool, and when he dis- carded his head-gear, the opponents were forced to make substi- tutions. HOMER BEGGS End Beggs. a i|uiet. unassuming sort of fcHow from the small hamlet of Sandy Lake, stepped into the Blue and White togs the first day he entered Wilmington, and knocked off the position of end right from the start. His offense was alwavs of a high onler. and his defense left little to be desireil. Ninety-four RUSStLL BVLliR A prddnct of New Wilmingtfjii. Jell staved right in the okl town, and signed up inuier Dan as a lineman, l ie had nn dillicultN ' in mai ing the arsity, and held down the position of guard for practicalis- the whole season. His ahiiitv to scrap, coupleii with this ear ' s experience will make him a valuable plaver in the years following. f ■ ALL.AN llOI-kMANN Guard HofTie was a star at Sharon High and maiiageii to make a Varsity berth on our eleven. He played a steady game all year and remained on the first string throughout the season. His posi- tion was that of guard and he proved to be worth his weight in gold as a football player. II. RR ORR Tackle lleavv pla ed for Westminster two ears ago. but last ' ear he w as on the squad of Geneva College. His return this ear was very advantageous to his real . lma .Mater for he was utilized as a guard and tackle, playing v ith all his worth on all occasions. He is married now. so will not answer to roll call next vear. Ninety-five W AI Rl N W I-RT Guard Pete ricei ed his earl y training at Groxe Citv during the S. A. T. C. vcar. and this year, when he got the chance to phi ' against his training school, he siiowed them something new in football tactic... He was always a cheerl ' ul and consistent worker, and we regret to announce that he will not be with us next year. GEORGH MILLER Gu. RD Miller, oLir timiinLiti e guard, tips the scales well around the two huntlred mark, liis big ph ' sique enabled him to hoUi a place on the line, and whenever he got into a game he displaved a form that should be of advantage to the coach in the season that is to come. R.A MOND THORNTON GUAKI) In response to the call for students to hack up the football team, Ray although a third ear man in school, and not on the squad in previous years, came ou! and put up a great game all season. He did not make his letter, but is to be commended for his fighting characteristics. Ninety-six JUmicUi of Jffinitluill - casnn The season ol U)22. althouf h prcjbahly the most disastrous in the history ol Westminster athletics, was at the same time a er - remarkable and interestins season. I ' he stor - of W estminster football in 1922 is the story of an awe-inspiring struggle in the face of such difficulties as would make the most courageous of us give up the fight in despair. But due to the determined efforts of those in charge and to the w hole-hearted response of the stu lent bod ' to their appeal for support, the schedule was carried out and in e er - game the indomitable spirit and sheer grit of our boys was marveled at from all sides. A week before the beginning of school, the candidates assembled and (jjach McOuiston discovered that he had only two letter men around which to build his team. Most of the material was light and inexperienced, and there was scarcely ' enough men for two teams. The next week, however, brought the return of four more letter men, and several promising freshmen also reported. W ith less than two weeks preliminar ' training, the strong W. J. team was met at Washington, and we were able to hold them to a 34-0 score. On the following Saturda - our home season was opened with .• lfred, the game ending in a scoreless tie. The next week we traveled to Rochester, N. Y .. where for three quarters we outplayed the husky Rochester University team, onl - to lose by one touchdown in the last quarter. Then came Geneva w ho caught us when two of our best pla ers were out of the game with injuries, and defeatei.1 us in a hard fought game, 32-0. A week later hordham L ' niversity was played in New ' ork, and with our patched up team, we were able to hold the strong Catholic team to a 12-0 score, surprising even our most arelent backers, who had predicted an overwhelming defeat. Thiel was then met at home and beat us in a hard fought battle, l ' -)-6. On Armistice dav we played Allegheny at iMeadville, and suffered our worst defeat of the season, because during the previous week three of our best players had left school, and our team was in a frightfuUv weakened condition. We met Wa nesburg the next week and were again defeated, but not disgraced, for in this game our bo s fought one of the greatest battles ever witnessed. Then on Thanksgiving dav we met and were de- feated by our ancient rivals, Grove (]itv, b ' the score of 76-0. Thus ended a season disastrous in man ' respects, but which brought out the true fighting qualities of Westminster athletes. Ninety-seven olltc JFrcsliman-S cipliam(ii c JftiothciU 0 amc True to tratlition, the annual scrap between the under-classmen was the usual thriller. On a brij ht. clear, November afternoon, before an enthusiastic crowd, the Sophomore ele en, coached b - John K. M. Morrow, defeated Professor Hber- ling ' s gridders b - a twenty to nothing score. It was a complete surprise, but the Sophs showed unusual team vsork and through this element rather than through superior physical force, the ' copped the fracas. It was a grand fight throughout, and the game proved to be a thriller despite the one-sided score. Bob Houston proved to be the big star of the game, sliding off tackle and hitting the line for gains almost at w ill. Jones proved a good forward passer and Harl Black grabbed a Jones pass for a thirt -five yard gain. Red .Anderson broke up pla ' after play at center, and Ste ie ran the ends in fine fashion. For the Freshmen, Anderson and F. Gibson, the big guards, performed nobly, but their backfield lacked organization and failed to gain consistently. Gibson was forced out with a bad knee in the second half.

One hundred twc D.WE [-AWCETT Captain Captain ravvcett worked hard for his team, and a great leal of its success may be at- Iributed to him. His floor work was little short of sensa- Uonai, and he was a dead shot, lie vsas fast and alwa s full of light, ne er relenting in mak- ing points for his team until the final blow of the whistle, . s a compliment for his won- ilerful work, we noticed that the sport editors of the Tri- State newspapers picked him for one of the forwards their m ' thical fi e. Da ' y ranked high amongst the scorers in the Tri-State league, and will always be remember- eti as one of Westminster ' s basketball heroes. JOHN MILLHR Manacek Miller was faithfull - con- sistent in his work for tb.e team, and as a trainer anil carer for equipment, his work was up to the standard of a senior with a Westminster e d u c a t i o n . This was Johnnie ' s first break into arsity athletics anti we are sure that he earned his man- ager ' s letter in an entirels ' commendable manner, lie is also one of our men that leave their .Alma Mater this year, and it is with a feeling of re- gret that we let him go. J. II. SMITH Co cn The coach had been arouni.1 school for some time anil eve n then was not known b ' all the student body. But when the team he coached began to roll up scores against our ancient ri al, it was then that he step- ped into the limelight of W estminster publicity. He is quiet and unassuming, is not gi en to violent exhortations from the coaching line, but if ever a team knew the line points of basketball, it was this ear. He is a grailuate of Oberlin College, anti well ()rth - to coach our teams. To him v e gi e credit tor one of the most successful basket- ball seasons at Westminster in se eral ears. JAMES COL ' RTNE ' Capt. -Elect — Guard Too much cannot he said in recognition of this sterling guarii. Jim was the bulwark of the defense of the team, and right there when the team started the hall down the floor, in recognition of his abilitw he was given honorable mention by the sport writers of the Tri-State. and next year we expect to see him on the first-string mvthical fi e. CL.ARENCE R. ND. LL Center Despite the fact that Randy had been out of college basket- ball for a ear. he had ver - little difficulty in making the varsit - pi ()t position, and retained the position in a commendable man- ner, lie was a fighter, and er ' consistent in breaking up the opponent ' s attack. W ' il.Ll.XM CLE.XRV Guard Bill stepped right out at the beginning of the season as a running guard, and maintained a high calibre of play throughout the year. His dribbling ability was little short of sensational, and his defensive tactics were admirable. We expect to hear more from him in his remaining two ears. One Iiundred four JOHN IIHTRA FoRWAKD Chosen by the sport writers of Ohio, West Virginia and Penn- svlvania as a forward worthy to be on a mythical five chosen from those states: and having the highest average for foul-shoot- ing in this part of the country. Hickory ' s work was marvelous, lie was brilliant, dependable, fast and accurate. ROBERT HOUSTON Guard Bob was the dependable guard that was alwa s held in re- serve, and was second to the famed Courtney as a stationary guard. When called upon to step into the game, he alwa. s crashed through with pep and vigor that soon stopped the attacks of the opponent. This is only his second ear, and he has great possibilities.

One liundred five limticut iif 2: kiskctluill Reason The varsity basketball live have compiled the most impressive record since the championship team of 1918. Opening the season with a loss to Saint Bonaventure on the home floor, they staged a comeback in the second game by winning from Alfred L niversitv. During the following week a trip was taken through Wash- ington Counts- and games were lost to V. and J. and Waynesburg. Although both games were lost, our team plaved well and neither game was won until the last minute of play. As a climax to the trip, Thiel was decisively defeated on their ow n floor. Examination week followed and the team was able to get but er ' little practice. Friday, of the same week, a close game was lost to Geneva at Beaver Falls and the next night the team staged a comeback by winning from Waynesburg. The next home game was with Bethanv and this proved the most exciting of the season. During the entire game there was never more than a three point elitference, our team finally winning out by one point. Going at top speed our passers were unable to stop Grove City and lost a hard fought game to them on our home court. . nother trip into New York State netted us a victory over Alfred and a 20-19 defeat b ' Saint Bonaventure. f-ollowing this trip the following teams were met and defeated: Geneva. Thiel, New Wilmington Scholastics and Allegheny twice. The final game of the season was lost to Grove City on the latter ' s floor. Eighteen games were played during the season, ten being won and eight lost. Nine of these were Tri-State games. Every team in the league was played with the exception of Duquesne. According to final standing. Westminster finished in the third place with five victories and four defeats. .Much credit is due the fellows this year, for with onl - one letter man back from last ear ' s squad, the outlook was not bright. But with the return of I ' awcett and Randall, letter men of two ' ears ago, things looked better. (Courtney, Fawcett, and Randall formed the nucleus for a good team, (bleary and Fletra fitted in with these men in an excellent manner, thus giving us a winning team. The following men received letters: Captain Fawcett, Fletra, Randall, Cleary and Captain-elect Courtney. 4 One hundred six Bin r ' GARVIN Captain As captain, as a star for- ward, and as an accurate foul shooter, Bettw who is a four- year letter-man. holds an en- viable position on Westmin- ster ' s team. A clean player, good fighter, and a swift cutter are a few of the assets of her basketball career. 1 ler reputation among visiting teams has been such as to make them enquire: Is that little dark-haired forward playing? .A ball in her hands means a ball in the basket. Fulfilling her duties as cap- tain, backetl by the able coaching of Jerry Wright, ani.1 the willing co-operation of all the squad, she has made a name for Westminster which is respected on all collegiate floors of Western Penns l- ania. JER0.M1-; WRIGlif Coach We ha e heard of Jerrv in football, track, basketball, and other acti ities. but we are in- troducing him as coach of the girls ' basketball team. A good coach must be svm- pathetic, fair, a keen observer and a pusher. ( erlainlv Jerr ' was all of these. Me was always on the job. always pushing the team to tlo its best. .- s a basketball player himself, he knows the fine points of the game, and he dii.1 his best to get these across to the team. The winning of the greater part of our games is surelv e ' idence enough that our Coach knew his job and handled it in a successful way. hvery girl on the squad appre- ciates what he has done for us and we wish him success in the future. HMMA BLACKBURN TvlANACiLR The success of the girls ' basketball season has been Llue. largely to their very com- petent manager, F:mma Black- burn. With her appointment to the position, a good sched- ule was assured for the season. She is capable, peppy, full of push. and interestetl in the game and the girls. Due to her perseverence. the num- ber of games scheduled for the girls was raised from nine last vear to twelve this year, but on account of cancella- tion, onlv ten games were played. In spite of annulling of games and the sickness of the players, she has managed the team, the schedule and the games with efficiencv- and creditable results. 4 One liundred eight bi:r. ich bro i iiiiRs C Pr.-l:LECT l()K AK[) Another x ir eL ' s Bernice till bohhcLl-haired ami still ■staniiifi for Westminster.

PP Gu.ARD At last Westminster has found a team-mate for Lois Logan. Cirace has proved to be conscientious both in work and in train- ing. ' 1 he test of her faithfulness has come in each game when we have seen her go into the fight eager and determmed, take rough treatment and falls and come up smiling e ery time.

We are also glad to say that Lois is a clean plaver and is filled with the spirit that brings success in anything attempted.

The first week of November Jerry Wright, coach, annoiuiced the date for initial practice. In response to this first call for recruits, girls of all heights and builds ajipeared at the g m lor the first scrimmage. After a few weeks of hiu practice the number of candidates was re- duced from thirty-two to sixteen, and when the squad was chosen it was found that in addition to last year ' s line-up Grace Rapp, of the l ' -)lQ- ' 20 arsit ' . had been chosen guard, and Alarv McLaughrey, a L ' reshman and sister of the famous Tuss, was to hold the position of side center. .Moreover the new girls had produced several players of true basketball abilit ' , among whom were Ruth Hamilton and Lois Carroll. These nev ' members were indeed welcome and whenever need- ed they have substituted in a ery creditable manner. Emma Blackburn has proved herself a capable manager by the attractive schedule that she arranged and admirably handled. At the close of the tirst home game with Slipper ' Rock State Normal our girls were on the short end of the 7-0 score. I lowever, this game was in no way t pical of the season, for the team decisivelv defeated Thiel and Geneva abroail. The Carnegie Tech lassies next went down to defeat on the home floor. ()n the third of l-ebruar - the Pitt game at home ended with a three point margin in faNor of Pitt. But the home games with I ' hiel and Gene a as well as the one abroad with Slipperv f ock were victories. And the season-closer abroad with Tech resulted in a tied score. W ' e are indeed proud of the coach, of the captain, and of the girls who ha e worked hard to produce a team that throughout the season manifested a spirit of fair plav and clean sportsmanship. One luniilred ilivin 3ntcr-(£kss iBashcthcill Inter-class basketball is one of the regular features of winter sport activity on the Westminster campus. This class of basketball has many advantages that varsity ball does not have, in that it is more democratic than the latter and allows more fellows to get experience and exercise, and also promotes a more livelv inter- est in the game and in athletics in general. This year the league started out with the usual enthusiasm and ardor. The class team.s practiced almost as regularly as the arsity in order to get the best possible results in the series, and their practice did result in some very thrilling games. The Seniors had very little chance from the ' ery start. .Although this class had won the championship in previous years, thev could not get their old combin- ation working. They were game to the last, however, and in spite of beating after beating, remained in the series to the end. The Juniors produced an excellent team and for a while it looked as if thev were going to win the championship. The first year men defeated them once, and in the return game the Juniors came out on top. This resulted in a tie for first place, and in the play-oflf the Juniors lost. The Sophomores were a scrappy bunch, and had a rather flashy season, losing several games by just a few points. They always managed to defeat the Seniors decisively, but were not consistent enough to win over the others. The Freshmen won the series. They had good material, and were organized into a good combination, losing only one game, that to the Juniors, and winning the play-ofT in a very decisive manner. Their star forward, Tommy Gibson, was the leading foul shooter and field goal getter in the league The standing of the teams was as follows: FRESHMEN JUNIORS SOPHOMORES SENIORS Won . 6 Lost Percentage .S ' - 7 0 5 4 6 .714 .333 .000 One hundred twelve CHAMPIONS Juniors Freshmen Sophomores Seniors One liuiidrcd thirteen Record of Boys ' Basketball Team WESTMINSTER, 19— ST.

One hundi ' ed fourteen One hundred fifteen I STANLE • GRANGER Captain Granger was our reliable hitter, and unbeatable infieki- er. Due to an accident at the Pitt game, his services had to be dispensed with for the most ot the remaining games. As a pinch hitter, his percentage was IJMKI, as was shown at Slippery Rock and Gro e City. Stan was a man re- spected by all the members of the squad, and worthy to be a captain of a Westminster team. lie always hail the necessar - punch, and plent - of fight, which occasionally got the best of htm. He knew baseball from beginning to end, and was one of the best short-stops in the college teams of the Tri-State. JOHN NEVIN Mamagf.r Johnnie chased balls all o ' er the lot in his preceding year at Westminster, and well earned his wa ' into the man- agership of the baseball team of 1022. While serving in the official capacitv of manager, he handled the (.letail work of his department in a ' er ' bus- iness-like manner, antl alwa s saw to it that his team lacked nothing in the way of equip- ment, or anv other necessities vital to the placing ability of a baseball machine. His in- discriminate loyalty to the players and the coach is to be highh ' commended. W. S. HART Coach Our coach was a man that not onl ' knew baseball and could play it, but had that fundamental principal neces- sary to a teacher, the ability to put himself in the other man ' s place and show him how to do it. He worketl hard and long with the bo ' s, whipping them into shape, and his teams aK ' a ' s presented a formidable lineup, worthy of any foe. To sa ' that Hub was well liked bv the bo_ ' S would be putting it verv mild. He was a pal and brother, a id baseball teams that he tLirncd out alwa -s had a wonderful spirit, their morale was high, and their abilit - to work to- gether was uncanny. One liundred seventeen NORMAN IIOELZLE Captain-Ei ect — Lei-t Eield Aggressi ' e! That ' s the word that describes Norm best, lie is always alert and on the job. and you can count the flies on one hand that he missed during the entire season. When he caught them it was alwa s with a spectacular effort, but he al- ways came up smiling, with the ball in mitt. He was also there with a wicked stick, too. GREGORY ' CONLEY ' EiKsr Base The original baseball fiend at last! Irish would wake up in economics class if anyone would mention baseball. He was the best first baseman on the team, and was also a catcher of no mean ability, not to mention his swatting power, lie will not be in the lineup this year, we are sorry to say. ELOY ' D SNY DER Catcher Buck came to Westminster from Wilkinsburg Hi. with a reputation as a catcher, and he proved that the dope was (J. K. 1 lis ability lav in his knack of sizing up an opposing batter, and then always holding on to the ball after the batter had missed. He did not return to school this vear, and his place will be hard to fill. One hundred eigliteen WILLIAM CiOLDS ' l ROl l.M Shortstop C]olilie was one of the mainstays of the team, plasing the important pivot position at second base. His speed and pep a!wa ' s put a lot of fight into the team, and to him we give a lot of credit for the high morale of our aggregation. RICII.

Me lollowed baseball for two years, and must be given credit lor his siick-lo-it-i eiiess. When Captain Granger was injured, he filled the pi sition ol shortstop in a er ' capable manner, earning his letter. LOVAL BROWN Second Base Brownie was another new man to report to Coach Mart, anii made a berth on the team right off the bat. . ' lthough a little erratic at times, his fielding and especiallv his hitting made him a promising plaver for the coming season. One liundred twenty LVLi- GL riiRin Pitcher Honey as we are prone to call this hlonde, was one of the bright spots on the team. As a pitcher his talents were undeveloped, hut he was no slouch on the mound Ills hitting was brought out in its entirety when he was shitted to right field for he ranked among the highest of collegiate swatters. PHILIP GOLGll PnCHER GotT was on the pitching stalT of ■ ' Hub ' s squad, and gives prospects of developing into a first class college pitcher. Although Phil did not make his letter, the school counts on him to crash through in the spring of l ' )2.3. LM.l: Hl-NDPRSON Pi iciii k The gang used to call him Yellow I lor--e, comparing him to the celebrated pitcher of the Pittsburgh Pirates. That nick- name should be sufficient to describe him as a deli erer of the ball. Great things are expected from him in ihe coming season. One lumdrud t ciil -one JUnticUl of Reason The season of l Ul was a rather unsuccessful one due to the fact that the material was insufficient for the task before it, and partis ' because the faculty rulinj on elij ibilitx ' became enforced. The schedule comprised twenty games that would have been worth while as victories, . ' mong these twenty games were four trips that were enjoyed by the players. The home games, were disappointing be- cause none of the inter-collegiate contests necessitated the tolling of the Old Chapel bell. The opening game with Tech. at Pittsburgh, brought forth no surprises, but we made a good showing against Wa nesburg, losing S to 4. in a ninth inning rally. .■ 11 hopes were shattered, however, when West Virginia L ni ersity held a field meet at our expense. The independent teams from New Castle and Sharon were no match for us. and these ictories gave us new courage. The next three games with F itt, Duc]uesne and Slippery Rock were lost by close scores, and were nothing to be ashamed of. We must not overlook the two games with Grove City, for despite the fact that we lost them both, the ' were both thrillers. In the second game with Slippery Rock, which was pla ed in the rain, ictor ' was ours, the score being 4 to 3. The remaining games with Muskingum, Pittsburgh CLollegians, Duquesne and Alumni were chalked against us, and need no further mention. All things considered, the season was successful. No one man can be cited tor praise, nor credit be awarded anyone, but the team as a w hole. ' I he coach wcjrked hard and faithful in his endeavor to formulate a winning combination and instill the Old W estminster Spirit into the boys. With the players of the 1 )22 season as a nucleus for the next year ' s team, the school can expect a brilliant season. 4 OiK- Inimlicd twenty-two One hundred twenty-three CIIARLLS ASH I ON ( huck was thu greatest discus-thrower in this part of the countrv, and was known as a national (igure, placing third in the Pcnn relays held in Philadelphia la t spring.

The present facilities, such as t hey are, have hampered the develop- ment of this sport, for with a clay track as we have, it is indeed difficult to expect development of good track men, not to mention the organization of an efficient track team. In the early spring of 1922, Chuck Ashton v as appointed captain and man- ager of a team to be organized if the material was of high enough calibre to war- rant such. After the inter-class track meet, a number of participants entered in a meet with Geneva, held at Beaver I-alls, and then later on, in a collegiate meet held by the University of Pittsburgh. As a result of these meets, four men qualified to wear the Westminster track letter, namely, Ashton, McElwain, Wright and Barker. Wright v as elected to captain the team in the coming season. Meets have been scheduled with Geneva and Thiel, but as Wright is the onl} ' letter man to start the season, it is hoped that sufficient material will be unearthed in order that old Westminster ma - outshine her rivals, in track as in all else. (Lcnnis In I0I7, tennis held a very important position in the athletic life of West- minster,, and was recognized then as a varsity sport. In the last lew years, how- ever, we find no data on a Westminster tennis team. Last year, one of the clubs of the school organized a team and engaged in contests with several of the sur- rounding colleges, but were not recognized by the college as representative of it. With the advent of tennis being recognized as a varsity sport once more, we look to the dexelopment of a real team. The organization of new sports takes time, and tennis is no exception, but there seems to be a Vvealth of material in school, anel when the new courts are completed there is no reason why we cannot develop some stars. The net game is becoming more popular among the smaller tri-state colleges, and there is no doubt that within a short time it will be adopted by them all as varsity endeavor. With a schedule v ithin our class and the school behind the team, Westminster should be supreme. One hundred twenty-six Itc Sntcr-Clciss rach iHcct In order to stimulate interest in track, the Y. M. C. A. of the college conceived the idea of ha ing an inter-class track meet each spring, and as a reward offered a silver lo ing cup to the class that amassed the greatest number of points. The idea was tried out in the spring of ' 21, and was a great success, the Freshmen win- ning the troph - with ease. The meet was so successful that it has established itself as a permanent feature of spring activities. Last spring, despite the fact that the weather was cold and generally unfa orable for a good meet, and the condition of the track was not up to standard, good time anel distance were made The Freshmen easily proved their superioritv, and scored seventy-six points out of a possible one hundred and thirty-three. The ' outnumbered the other classes in entries and secured two places in ahiiost e ' er - event. In the events of the meet, AlcElwain, Freshman; Ashton, Senior; Black. Sophomore; Guthrie, Junior; and Barker, Freshman, were the outstanding luminaries for their respective classes. 1 he following is the official point summary; Event Senior junior Soph.

The Club this year was just as well known, as good, and as good looking as ever before, so we are not tr ing to bluff you into believing that the Club really enjoyed a successful season. The time and effort put forth by the members and the director were well spent, and to them we must give due credit for we realize the burdens thy bear, though the work is not all fun as some of us imagine. But the fun came too. Imagine the flag rush scramble for the dress suits in the college and the surrounding towns; a similar fight for shirts, collars, ties, studs and the other trimmings: and that thrill each one received when they stepped out and canaried themselves into the appro aI of their own fair maidens and other prominent people of the college. But just a word about the program presented this year. All the selections were rendered in an artistic manner at each recital. The choice of pieces gave each audience variety and quality, bringing out the charm and beauty of worth while music. In this particular line we would say that Westminster ' s Men ' s Glee Club compares with the best in this part of the countrv, a fact that makes us feel proud of our Alma Mater. To Director Nielsen we gi e the most praise. His untiring efforts have worked wonders for each individual and for the Club as a whole.

Again it was uneler the er - efficient super- vision of Professor Per Nielsen, director of the C onservatory of Music, llis careful training combined with the whole-hearted interest of the gills produced a club that has w(jn approval from every one of its audi- ences. The home concert was given the first of March in the college chapel; and the grils received many expressions of commendation from West- minster students and their friends. The next week the girls began their annual tour with an appearance before a large and enthusiastic crowd in New (Castle. Their success that night was repeated each of the four ensuing evenings. They set out from New Wilmington, laden with man - suit-cases, on Tuesday morning, and traveled to Sharpsburg. The next dav the - sang in Elizabeth. In Braddock, besides the even- ing c6ncert in the church, the club appeared and gave a short program before the two high schools of the town, and met with a hearts ' welcome at both of them. The next da ' Latimer Junior lligh in Pittsburgh, gave them a like reception. The week ' s tour ended Fridav night when the girls sang in Ben Avon. Besides the twelve or fifteen ensemble numbers on the program there were songs by the Girls ' Quartette, a reading by Miss lidith Lockhart, and a piano solo by Miss Margaret Praser. Work and play, a few failures, more successes, fun and comradeship — these are the things that ha e marked the season just past. May the girls and their director ha e only pleasant remembrances of their sojourn and companionship together in the Glee Club of this year.

Direc- tor of the College of .Music. .As it would naturall ' be some kind of a musical course under his direction, that is preciselx what it is We enjo ' three numbers a semester, given b talented musicians in the various fields of music. Few of us realize how fortunate v e are at W estminster in being able to listen to a member of the Chicago or Metropolitan Grand Opera Compan ' , a famous pianist, violinist or an - one important in the musical world. It is er ' seldom that such a person comes to a small town like New W ilmington or performs before such a small audience, although in this way we recei e the opportunity of hearing real musi- cians within our ow n midst, due to the tireless efforts of .Mr. Nielsen. This ear v. e ha e been ver - fortunate indeed in that we had bt)th ariet - and qualit - in the numbers of the course, as the following list bears ' witness to the fact: Raoul ' idas — Famous French N ' iolinist Susanne Keener — Coloratura Soprano. Metropolitan Opera Co. Arturo Bonucci — Italian ' Cellist, Metropolitan .Musi- cal Bureau Lester Donahue — Pianist Cecil Arden — Contralto Richard Crooks — Tenor 4 One hundred fifty-four (flratta One of the big nights during Commencement Week is that one when the Oratorio Society gives its concert. This has long been an annual atTair. It is eagerly awaited because of the high grade of music rendered. .A.S has usually been the custom, two oratorios are going to be given this year. One of them has been given in America comparatively few times, but its beauty merits popularity ' . This one is Miriam ' s Song of Triumph, composed by Franz Schubert. W. H. Milman has written the ersion used from the German Grillparzer and from the fifteenth chapter of Exodus. The other one is just as pretty and effective. In- stead of being based on any certain chapter or verse of the Bible, the text was chosen from different portions and arranged by Luther D. Reed, while the praise for the musical composition of the City of God belongs to H. Alexander Matthews. This year we are exceptionally fortunate in having Mary Mellish, a prima dona of the Metropolitan Opera Company, to sing the solo part. She has a soprano voice w hich w ill certainly be an additional attraction for the rendition of the oratorios. Sllie (Ulicipcl (CItoir This is one organization in school that previously has scarceh ' been mentioned, but it is nevertheless worthy of praise. Those of us who have heard them sing every Sabbath evening appreciate their music but do not realize the work there is connected with it. The fact that practice is held once each week for a one hour period may seem to be of little consequence, but in a semester the time thus spent is considerable. Everyone recognizes the importance of having the choir do its share in the Sabbath evening chapel service. It completes the service and makes an appropriate setting for the sermon which music does better than anx thing else. Even if we do not seem to show our appreciation, we are indeed grateful to all of the members, and we would not like in the least to be without them. Under the direction of Mr. Nielsen, this choir composed of about thirty members, receives valuable musical instruction; so that not only the chapel service is aided by their efforts, but the members themselves derive benefit from the training thev receive. One hundred fifty-five One hiiiidrud fifty-seven The House Next Door On the evening of December nineteenth, something seemed to make everyone feel neighborly, and so we went to The I louse Next Door for a very enjo ' able evening. Strange as it may seem, we saw two families, an English and a Jewish, with conflicting customs and traditions, finally united by the thread of romance.

This organization is in keeping with the mox ' ements of the Drama League which is doing so much for the intro- duction of better drama on the stages of our country. Last year the Wada Club presented several one-act plan ' s throughout the year, completing the year ' s work with the well known play of Charles Rann Kennedy, The Servant in the House. Because of the wide demand for this plav it was presented twice during Commencement Week and several invitations were received to make a tour over the L ' nitd Presbyterian Church. This ear the Club expects to present several of the noted Washington Square Pla s in behalf of the Drama League of America. The Wada Club built itself a lasting memorial in the equipment of a Little Theatre on the third floor of Old Main with an up-to-date stage with lights, curtains and other fittings. ■Much credit is due Professor Moses as the originator and founder of the club whicii is doing its share in the uplift of modern drama and which has the loyal support of the students of Westminster. t)ne hundred fifty-nine lEltc llyccum Course This is a lecture course arranged b - Professor Moses in the interest of the town people as well as of the students. The range of its pro- gram has been aried, ranging from interesting lectures to comic opera, and e en a magician: so that the student bod - has receixed qualit ' as well as variety in the different numbers. The Hinshaw Quartette concert opened the season. The first half of their program was well liked, but the latter half, comprising the comic opera ( ox and Box was the cause of almost continuous laughter. Our next number was given by the greatest preacher-orator in America, and possibly in the world. Dr. S. Parks Cadman. His ad- dress dealt with the Lights and Shadows of the World, impressing upon us his gospel of units ' , lie is a powerful speaker, thinker, and Christian statesman, who we ma ' be proud to ha e heard speak. Again we turned back from the serious to listen to a humorist. Jess Pugh, who truly succeeded in living up to his name as a humorist. Davis, the magician, also entertained us b - performing puzzling and mvstic antics; so that no matter how hard we tried we were unable to follow his movements. Miss Margaret Stahl delighted her audience by reading Six Cylinder Love . Her characterizations were well carried out: the plot was in- teresting, but et under it ran a moral thread which b - no means lessened the effectiveness of the interpretation. Another woman speaker of note was Miss Ida M. Tarbell, who on Lincoln ' s Birthdav anniversary spoke on The Making of Lincoln . Since she has made a close study of his life, she was fitted for such an address. The last number was by no means of least importance. Due to the unusualness of the musical program given it was ver ' well liked. W ith the appearance of the Cardin-Lieurance Compan , the l ceum course of 1 )11-13 was delightfullx- finished. One luuulred sixty Elizabeth Thompson Queen of the May Just as the sun was sinking into the horizon, streaking the sky with its many colored rays, a procession of almost as many colors was in progress from the Hill- side to the campus in front of Old Alain on the evening of iVlay twenty-second. The May Queen led the a - to the campus followed b ' the queen-elect with her attendants. When Miss .Martha Paxton approached .Miss Elizabeth Thompson to place upon her head the May Queen ' s crown, it certainl v was a prett ' picture. A por- trayal of a Spring Day followed.

The w inding of the .Ma ' Pole was then er ' gracefully done b ' the Senior girls. The whole evening ' s performance was ver - etTecti e, with the novel idea of the spring da - so well planned and carried out by .Miss McQuiston. To her is due a large part of the credit, but the interest of the girls themselves had its share in making this one of the prettiest davs at Westminster.

The following year the Junior class successfull - punli ,hed the book, and since that time the Argo has been edited b ' the Junior class- Just as the college is gradually progressing, so it is the desire of each Junior class to progress and make their Argo the best ever. The Class of ' 24 has tried to catch this progressive Westminster Spirit and pass it on to its readers. The Argo is more than a class publication, for the chief aim of those who publish the book is to depict the life and activities of the whole college. It is really a Memory Book, for it contains many snapshots of student life and witty write-ups of the various activities at Westminster. If in the ears to come the contents of this Argo bring back to the readers a flood of memories of the happy days spent in Old Westminster, then the aim of the Argo has been accomplished.

The Holcad might be called the voice of the student body, as it is a weekly publication telling about all the college events, sports, music, dorm and club notes, and general news. An inter- esting department this year was the Mail Box, in which appeared articles by a great number of the students. During the past year the llolcad has progressed through the co-operation of stafT, faculty, and students. W e are looking forward to a brilliant () age in the ear 1 23- )24. The W estminster College Bulletin is published quarterly by the Faculty Com- mittee on Publications. It is a very valuable publication and is helpful not only to new students but to old as well. It serves as a helpful guide to new students, for it furnishes detailed information on how you ma ' enter Westminster, the courses of stud ' offered, the expenses, and the college rules and regulations that are to be observed after entrance. It introduces ' ou to the Faculty and the Board of Trustees and gives ou a complete student roll. It also tells of the social, religious, and physical activ ities entered into by the students- Westminster (CnUeiu ' ictnMunik There is a lonel ' , lost feeling in the hearts of our Freshmen that only those w ho have been 1-reshmen recently or who have ver ' good memories can appreciate. rhe ' are strangers and the ' do not know just how to act. It is so at all schools, but here our Y. M. and Y. W ' . have had people in charge w ho remembered when thev were in the same bewildered state, so they establisheil the custom of printing hand-books (absolutely truthful) that tell the Freshmen what to do and how to do it. Besides this there is a dictionary of the lingo that is spoken; so that the children ma - know what their elders are talking about, and a list of ells, songs, and the Westminster ll mn. It is the onl ' bit of information in the school which the Freshmen can absolutelv beliexe and tluw sureh ' do reh ' on it. . sk the Fresh- men if } ou don ' t believe us. OiiL- lnmdri;d sixty-nine ciu (5ammci c U Prominent among the new organizations which appeared upon the campus duiing the past year is the journalistic fraternit -, the Tau Gamma Delta. Its pur- pose is to foster the rising interest in journalistic writing and to provide a method by which proficiency in writing may be rewarded. Eligibility for membership comes automaticall - with the appointment or election to an editorship or man- agership on either of the student publications. All credit for the conception of the idea which germinated in the organization of this fraternity goes to J. McLeod Smith, eilitor of the 1022- ' 23 1 lolcad. He, in conference with Dr. Garwood, called a meeting of eligible men. at which meeting the fraternity was I ' ounded. It is hoped that in the near future this local fraternitv will lind it possible to petition one of the standaril national fraternities and thus add another attraction to our Alma Mater. One- hundred seventy-one iMcn ' s llarsity Jilcbatc Prof. Hlbert R. Moses, Coach L ' nder the pentagonal league Westminster achieved a well-earned victory in K)22. Debating the cjuestion Resolved, that Con- gress should enact legislation giving the L ' nited States Railwav Labor Board full power to enforce its decisions, the afhrma- tive team won unanimously over Grove City, and bv a two-to-one vote over Thiel; losing the first tilt b) ' a two-to-one vote to Carnegie Tech, the negative rallied and de- feated Geneva completely Thus, West- minster began to feel that she could prove that black is white and w hite is black. This year, with four Tau Kappa . lpha men back, the outlook is rosy. Again the pentagonal arrangements ha e been nKuie; but at the last moment Thiel and Carnegie Tech have found it necessary to withdraw. The ciuestion presented is, Resohed. that the L ' nited States should adopt a cabinet-parliamentary form of government. In a idition to these meetings at home, the team has made ready for a trip to the middle west. There, Westminster, represented by the affirmative team, is meeting Carleton and Beloit L ' niversities, schools whose records are excep- tional. The undertaking is great, but with the enthusiasm manifested by both old and new men, we all are looking forwarel to the usual Westminster victory. In addition to preparation for the present ' ear, Westminster is a charter mem- ber of a new organization. Early in the year, representatives of sixteen colleges and universities formed the Debating Association of the Colleges of the State of Pennsylvania. Within this organization, in future vears, Westminster can com- pete with the best teams in Penns l ania for the state championship. This new league makes it possible for the state champion to oppose teams from other states for sectional championships. We consider membership in this organization, which begins functioning in l ' -)24, to be of great importance because questions for debate, technicalities, and general arrangements are provided for the whole membership in a more satisfactory and uniform manner than heretofore. Westminster is indeed fortunate to have taken this forward step. One hundred seventy-two .Men ' s Dlba i i: Sql; d W HS l AllNSThK vs. CjHNEN A hundred seventy-three The place of debate and uratorv in school life has surel - been shown when a national fraternity has been founded with the express purpose of recognizing ex- cellence in public speaking, and of developing and promoting interest among the under-graduates of American colleges anil universities along these lines. To be a wearer of the T. K. A. key — the s mbol of the fraternity — a person must have taken part in at least one inter-collegiate debate, as well have good scholastic standing- Probabl ' few of us at Westminster realize what an honor it is that we have a local chapter of this honorary forensic fraternity. It i indeed a distinction to be a member of the local chapter, and parlicularlv of, the Westminster one because of the high merit it has won. The men, who ha e represented this school, have established an enviable reputation due to the interest the}- have shown, and the laurels they have won in former years. The future possibilities appear very favorable for a similar standing. 3f res lima n- cp It om o re 43 cbatc As the maxim puts it; ' the worm will turn ' . After a series of heart-breaking reverses at the hands oi the Sophomores, the 1-reshmen indicate(.i themseises with a vengence. Awe- inspiring Sophomore brawn fell before nimble Freshmen brain. When the subject for the debate was announced as Resolved, that the United States should adopt a Cabinet-Parliamentary form of government. quite a good deal of interest and comment sprung up on the campus. How would the new material stand up before the all-wise Sophomore syllogisms? Interest was stimulated by rumors of excellent orators among the Freshmen. And well it might be! On the eventful evening of January eighteenth, the two teams lined up for the scrimmage. Hall McKinne_ ' , Hale Bucher and Paul Higgle upheld the affirmative for the Sophomores, asserting that the United States government had been founded on a misconception; and that the English plan was perfectly adaptable according to the proposed changes. To this the Freshmen negative, including . rthur Wilson, Charles Wallace and Harvey Moore replied. The negative declared the change of .Xmerican form of government was unwise. Now follow- ed hot and clever rebuttals summing up the whole situation. A few tense moments of silence, and then the judges ' decision was rendered. The vote went to the negative — two to one. The Freshmen had avenged themsehes! SoiMlO.MORt:. Tt.AAV Freshmen Team I One liundied seventy-five (Girls ' llarsity llcluitc Debating is one of the acti ities in which Westminster girls are deepl ' inter- ested. The Triangular League between Westminster, Gene a, and Grove Citw which was operative last year, has been readopted for the present season. It provides that teams from each of these other colleges shall be met on the forensic platform. The question that has been selected is, Resolved, that Great Britain and the L nited States should form an alliance to protect France against invasion. The people who are comprised in the quad are 1 lelen Ewing, Ethel Tracw .Mar ' Graham, Margaret Reeher. Helen .Mickulonic, 1 la el Smith, Ruth Hamilton and Dorothy l-rench. Each one of them is taking an actixe interest in the work; this is probabl ' due to a two-fold motixe. In the lir t place, a careful stud ' of the question affords a comprehensive iew of international relationships. But a greater and more animating incenti e is the opportunitx it produces to win glor ' and distinction for iheir .Alma .Mater. The girls are always willing to de ' ote their untiring efforts in order to achie e this end. Since the teams are thus impelled, it is improbable that they will experience anything less than a very successful season. One hundi-ed seventy-eight The Cx)mmittee in Westminster is lour ears okl, having been organized in lOlQ as an outgrowth t)f the P p Movement. main object is to serve as a point of contact between the faculty and the student body, while representative students from each of the three upper classes comprise its membership Since organization, the Committee has passed legislation concerning athletics, besides incorporating the customs and traditions of the college into the constitution of the L ' pper Class (Committee.

While on its campus it is only natural that new men should feel more at home in companionship with certain other men. To accommo- date and to satisfy these natural desires, fraternities and clubs were organized. It was then deemed advisable to create a common representative bod - where all problems relati e to their welfare might be settled. To this end an Inter- |-raternit ' Cdub Council was organized in the spring of 1 21. Its function is to settle all differences, to interpret the will of the college, and in general to promote peaceful relations among the arious fraternities and clubs. One hundred eighty-one The Y. C. A. is one of the mt)st inlluential organizations on the campus It is a he man ' s organization where the men can come and discuss the problems that they meet in every day life. The Y is doing its share in making West- minster, first and foremost, a Christian college. The actlivities of the Y are numerous and aried. During the summer, prospective students are written to, and when these men arrive on the campus in the fall, they are met and helped in getting settled. During the first week of school a get-acquainted party is put on for the men, and later in co-operation with the Y. W. C. A., the Who ' s Who is staged. The two associations also edit the Fresh- men Handbook. During the year, men are sent to various Y. M. C. A. conferences and con ' entions. The Young Women ' s Christian Association is one of the most important organ- izations on the Westminster campus. At the beginning of school each fall it does a great work in helping to make the Freshmen girls feel at home. When they arrive in New Wilmington they are met by their Big Sisters of the Y. W. who help them to register and to get acquainted in their new home. The Y. W. collaborates with the Y. M. in giving the Who ' s Who partv each year shortly after the opening of college. They also give a Christmas part ' every year, w hich is enjoyed by all the girls. Once a week, on Wednesday evening, the Y. W. C. A. holds a regular meeting. The character of the meetings are alwa s varied enough to maintain interest. Sometimes they are given over to a special speaker, but often the hour is de ' oted to discussion of some interesting problem. The Y . W C. A. meets a definite need on the campus that could not be met in any other wa -. It holds a recognized place among the religious organizations of the college.

Its purpose this ear, as in former -ears, is to supplement the classroom study of French, considering questions outside the realm of the classroom, and to make French more than just a three or four hour course taken for language credit. With this purpose in view the meetings take various interesting forms, plays, scenes, dialogues and recitations being given. The meetings, of course, are carried on entireh ' in French.

MORAL IDEALS Westminster has for her ideal effort the harmonious blending of broad scholar- ship, pure morality, and an evangelical atmosphere such as will foster reverence for the Bible as the word of God and sympathy with the missionary program of Christ. It is maintained that sane college discipline must demand from college students the same morality which has characterized the Christian homes from which they come, and that under no circumstances should young people who are learning to make a living and a life through the sacrifices of Christian parents and endowments of the Church, be permitted a lower grade of moral conduct than those of their own age who, in the home community, are doing the work of life.
