But we would lack an element of living if we did not interweave time into the theme of third dimension. We have incorporated time into this yearbook. Classes, the first items on the schedule of any college student, begin early in the day as we rush, sometimes minus breakfast, to eight o ' clocks, as befits Eight o ' clock scholars. Activities, without which college life would soon lapse into routine hutn-drumness, are truly around the clock, from handing the morning chapel announcement in for a Y.W.C.A. meeting, preparing debate speeches in the library on an afternoon, going to a Holcad staff meeting at 7:30, and attending a house meeting at 10:50, the close of a full day. Sororities and fraternities, so important to the social life on our campus start early in the year with friendly rivalry in getting pledges, and promoting good fellowship and fun. Rush Parties and Hell Week linger in the niemories of the actives who went through it all once, and the pledges who have much to look forward to. Athletics and the school spirit which make us shout a nd cheer for Westminster players when there ' s only One minute to play, is no integral part of our college experience. We never will nor want to forget those exciting moments when our team was pitted against a strong opponent with the time nearly gone. Three dimensions of height, width and depth are our college life . . . thus height, width and depth are our picture of that life, painted with the touch of time. I C) cstminslcr and lis oluclcnts Wc, the Argo staff, dedicate this book to the past, the present, and the future of Westminster and its students. The past has shown a striking; advance from the first Westminster building, which was nothing more than a large house, to the Old Main that burned in 1929 and then to the beauti- ful Gothic architecture of the present Old Main Memorial. Parallel to this physical advance has been the rapid rise of Westminster graduates in the world of the past and in the world of today. Many have carved their niche in the business world, in science, in letters, in religion, in law, and all the other walks of life trod by college men and women. Now that our country is at war as it was in the past, Westminster men have again taken their places in the ranks of enlisted men in the Army and Navy. Others arc busy in defense work, or in the guidance of our country ' s policies. Some have performed the supreme service of giving their children to the service. The college is now cooperating to the best of its ability with the training of young men for the Army and Navy. We, the present student body, will have our contribution to make in solving the post-war problems, those of reconstruction and adaption to a world again at peace. Each student has found his place on the ticker tape of time, and the Westminster tradition of leadership, as exemplified by those in the world of the past and in the world of today, will be carried on by those in the world of the future. As Freshmen we struggle with bUie dinks and placement tests, Bible assignments and the inevitable swim- — mjrig classes. As Sophomores our lost seC confidence returns; we plague the new tteshmen, we struggle with com- plicated major sheets. As Juniors and e edit th e Argo, choose the May ueenj sfnd hurry to get our Bible itten. As Seniors we spend hours in thesis courses, dread c nfprehensives, and are amazed to find ourselves graduated. We have a diploma, a degree, and a memory of four oh-so-short years which none of us could forget.

One has only to step into his office to get that lift in morale which comes with a sincere readiness to sympathize and guide. To Dr. Galbreath, every boy and girl is an individual preparing himself for inde- pendence; and, with this in mind, whether in private consultation or in his Sunday evening services at chapel, Prexy conveys his import- ant message of inspiration. Maxwell R. Kelso, dean of the college, and professor of History, now the acting head of the History Department in Dr. Marshall ' s absence, can still find time to direct successfully the affairs of students. Weighty problems con- cerning low grades, overcuts, the business of six weeks white cards, all seem to straighten themselves up beautifully — after Dean Kelso has helped to solve them. For her ready laughter and sympathetic understanding, for her progressive leadership in helping make Westminster what it is today; for her spontaneous personality; for the experience of simply having known her, students will long remember Mary E. Turner, dean of women. Heading the list of those who keep import- ant things like registration cards in order is Miss Corinne Mercer, secretary to the president of the college. Miss Mary Isabelle Ramsey is the recorder, who has the added duty of seeing that the millions of articles left in the lost and found department are returned to their owners, Mr. Ross Ellis is the college business manager. Mrs. Louise Kepple Sewall, accountant, is the secretary of busy Mr. Ellis. Other members of the business staff are Miss Elsie Johnson, secre- tary; Miss Clara McCandless, assistant cashier; and Mr. Alfred Shaffer, superintendent of buildings and grounds. I ' aiii ' Tivilvr William Johns. Director of Pub- lic Relations, fills the large order of making nostalgic freshmen learn to think of Westminster as a second home as well as represent- ing Westminster to future college students. In this, his cheerful dis- position is not a small ingredient of his success. Miss Helen Giffin Hauck, li- brarian, and Miss Margaretta Barr, assistant librarian, find that keep- ing records of out-going books is only a small portion of their job. Besides the complex job of keeping the books and file in order, they arc often obliged to walk quietly from table to table, shushing those who are not studying, or studying aloud, as the case may be. The introduction this year of a course for psychology majors marked an advancement in the Department of Psychology and Education. The department is headed by Dr. William L. Reuter, B.S., M.Ed. Assisting Dr. Reuter in training prospective teachers are Miss Margaret P. Graff, A.B., M.A., who is also the House Di- rector of Browne Hall, and Dr. Carroll Leeds, A.B.. M.A., Ph.D. As well as training future teachers in psychology and methods of teaching, the Psychology Depart- ment gives vocational aptitude and intelligence tests to help the stu- dents of the college discover their abilities.

TREVITT Payr Thirly-jivc ,Bil,l CAMPBELL GUEST ORR Every student, both sooner and later in his college career, spends some time in the Bible Department. Each year has its crop of freshmen under the guidance of Dr. Orr and Dr. Jamison, writing hurried answers to completion questions in the sylla- bus, learning the books of the Bible, memorizing the kings of Israel and Judah, and struggling through Paul ' s Three Missionary Journeys. And every year, just before first semester exams, worried Juniors haunt the library, searching for material for their Bible theses. These are ex- periences which will always be remem- bered. Professor John Orr, A.B., A.M., B.D., Ph.D., is Chairman of the Bible and Philosophy Department. Assisting him are Mr. James Ralph Ncale, A.B., B.D., D.D., pastor of the local church, and W.

Science Department Formaldehyde, pickled frogs, elec- trical apparatus, sulphur smells . . . this is Ivy covered Science hall where Science majors spend most of their day. There are the chemistry labs that last all afternoon and there ' s that ex- periment to write up after it has been done successfully. Dr. Hank Os good, B.S., Westminster, 1927; M.S. Penn State, 1929; and Ph.D., Cornell 1934, keeps an eye on those experi ments, or Dr. Metcalf, A.B., Mari etta, 1935; M.A., Columbia, 1937 Ph.D., Ohio State, 1939, is on hand to point out exactly what ' s wrong Everyone learns to recognize the fa miliar figure of Dr. Freeman, Profes sor Emeritus, A.B., Allegheny, 1891 Ph.D., 1894; LL.D., Westminster, 1921; as he strolls in to observe Science Hall students explore the mysteries of chemistry. Industriously studying the structure of leaves. Biology students spend long hours in lab supervised by Dr. Quick, A.B., Michigan, 1908; Ph.D., 1916; Builtenzorg Botanical Gardens, Cey- lon, 1914; Puerto Rico Experiment Station, 1926-1936. On field trips students search for Hydra in stagnant ponds as Dr. Matthews, B.S., Wis- consin, 1931; Ph.D., 1935, points out likely places to look. Delving into the realm of Physics, students are under the capable guid- ance of Dr. Swindler, A.B., Indiana, 1913; A.M., 1915; Ph.D., 1935, Chi- cago, and Dr. Moorehead, A.B., Indi- ana, 1921; A.M., 1924; Ph.D., North- western, 1931. There ' s the museum with its grinning skeleton, the biology supply rooms with a bucket marked eyes and the offices with a conspicuous lack of tele- phones, but it ' s home to the hard- working science majors.

Beatrice I ' di r I ' m y-f our 1ft Sop li () 111 () rc (lass It was the wish of every humiliated Freshman at Tribunal in November, 1940, that it would not be long imtil we would be Sophomores. Well, we ' re Sophomores now and proud of it. Afte - we had come through hazing, we gave a dance com- plete with floor show and recovered our lost pride. Last Fall we tormented the Freshmen during Freshman Week and smeared them with eggs and flour at Tribunal. OFFICERS DON BROOKS JOE DEMOISE JEANNE SNOWDEN ED HAMILTON President Vice President Secretary Treasurer F r c s li ni c n Class It was hard at first — being Freshmen. We were so used to being high school leaders, president of the high school student council or the star football player, that it hurt to be the down-trodden Freshmen, hazed and humiliated at Trib- unal — to make better college students of us, they said. Perhaps they were right, for the Freshman Class soon took its place on the football, basketball, and swimming teams, and other organizations. OFFICERS BILL ANDRE X- President CHARLES DAVIS ....

Giffin Backstage in the Little Theater some night when the clock ' s hands point to 8:15 .. . it ' s a hurried, busy place with white-smocked Teacher Cordray daub- ing bits of make-up on actors who rush around saying: Now don ' t forget that cue, give it to me on time ! with Lee Gunter adjusting that last bit of stage scenery and getting ready to throw the switch that turns the house lights off and. the footlights on; and with the hum of WHEN THE HORNS BLOW Andrews. Isham voices that reaches backstage from the audience to terrify the actors who are new at the game but assure the old hands that they ' ll be playing to a full house. Westminster ' s Little Theater season got off to a memorial start last Novem- ber with the production of George Bern- ard Shaw ' s Pygmalion. Following tra- dition, members of Masquers, the honor- ary Dramatic fraternity, played all the roles in this first play of the school year. WHEN THE HORNS BLOW Andrews: Kuhns; Isham; N -wcomb; Wolfe: Weisenstein; Stafford Pti i- I ' ijiy-six Dramatics Elsie Hetherington s portrayal of Eliza, the Cockney flower girl, was balanced in excellence by Stew Davis ' handling of the difficult part of the phonetics professor, Higgens. In the first scene of the play, those shadowy figures conversing in the background to lend reality were Jim Heriot, Liz Burnite, Ginny Zepp, and Teacher and they were saying things like I hope Elsie bumps into the um- brella right. Dr. Cordray, proving he could act as well as direct, appeared in one scene and had the whole cast teasing him, for he forgot his lines at rehearsal! There were funny moments, like the time Ginny ' s false hair which was in braids got too loose, but was noticed by Herky in time. When Janet Keech was informed of her part in the play, she remarked, Darn it, I ' m a mother again ! , for it seems as if Janet has been playing many Mother roles in Little Theater productions. Henry Herky Herchenroether was perfect as Colonel Pickering, and orchids also to Mary Beth McLaughry, Jean Hol- linsworth. Max Linn, Elizabeth Burnite, James Heriot, Janet Keech, and Virginia Zepp. Instead of another long play, the Little Theater group presented three one-act, student-directed plays in December. The Theater of the Soul had as its main bit of scenery a huge thumping human heart . . . thumping thanks to Bill Horean who was sitting backstage pulling the string! All the action in this play took place in the human thorax, and represented only a fraction of a second, while the period of time covered in the next play, The Long Christmas Dinner was supposed to be ninety years. The Torchbearers was a play within a play as it concerned the troubles of a group of amateur thespians. June Mathewson played her part with gusto. Sn ' ith. Rosoiiherpcr. Heriot. Hunit ' s.

Fred Nahas, the smoking linger preferred a chocolate igar rather than the real thing, se the one-act plays were such a success, the next Little Theater produc- tion was also a series of short, student- directed one-act plays. Evening Dress Indispensable, No ' Count Boy and Sparkin, were liked by all the students because they concerned a subject of universal interest . . . young love. Thursday night of the plays was hoo- doo night with actors breaking mirrors, the lights being eccentric and refusing to work for one horrible moment, and Jim Fife being forced to hold up Sparkin scenery for ten minutes until somebody found out why it collapsed. Also in Sparkin, Cora Mae Ford, in spite of the cue she put on her sleeve so she ' d remember, skipped two pages oi dialogue and five minutes later scared the cast by going back and picking up what she was omitting. Jim Heriot always had the problem of getting his black-face makeup on for No ' Count Boy, the girls in Evening Dress Indispensable had to change cos- tume in about one minute flat, and the boys who were afraid the ladies couldn ' t do it, spent their spare time ad libing and planning to play checkers. In the latter part of April the last pro- duction and second long play of the Lit- tle Theater season was put on. Ladies in Retirement a psychological melo- drama dealing with murder, had the audience shivering. Double-cast, the play had 6 women ' s parts and only one man ' s part, that of Albert Feather, played excellently by For- rest Rosenberger, who solves the mystery of the murder of Miss Fiske.

The two had lived in an old house on the Thames marshes, a weird setting for this thrilling melodrama. Little Theater productions were so much more than the audience saw. They were the fun and fears of final rehears- als which lasted anywhere from 7 to 12 o ' clock. Little Theater plays meant learn- ing pages of lines, important cues, the meaning of up-stage, down stage and other theater lingo that lends an air of professionalism to any performance. The fun was in the hundreds of funny little incidents and jokes that were constantly happening. And finally, the fun was in the satisfaction of that last night, when the curtam came down for the last time, the scenery was tuclced away for some other use some other time, and the actors knew they had done a good job.

' ■1 . 1943 A rgo Srvriily-lti-n Narrow, pink-walled, white-ceilinged Argo office . . . the scene of bustling activity as the ' 42 yearbook is planned, write-ups rewritten, and typewriters pounded energetically as time grows nearer for the copy deadline. Chal Houston, capable editor-in chief, divides his time between the darkroom marked Argo in the library photographic studio, and the Argo office proper where literary Editors, Margie Cook and Ann Hausman perspire over copy. Some of the formal pictures were aptly taken care of last fall by jolly Harry Pinky Pinker- ton, but informal shots to add a true picture of college life to the Argo remained to be taken. Besides angle shots of campus beauty spots, there was a need for many sports pictures to sup- plement Sports Editor Dave McHenry ' s coverage of athletics. Toward the end of March the yellow board in Room 215 with the Argo assignment sheets clustered around last year ' s AU-American cer- t ificate, was referred to more as assignments were completed by the Literary staff and typed by staff typists. Finally the finishing touches: plates were sent out, letters written to engravers, trips made to the printers, and so . . . the Argo. Tradition has been followed; a staff of Jimiors have published the ) earbook in honor of the Senior class of 1942. Wednesday cv ' cnings, and Thursday after- noons and evenings, the Holcad office in the basement of the library is noisy with the clacking of typewriters, the two short rings of the tele- phone at intervals, the whistle of wind howling under the big door, sometimes the muffled sound of music from the Music Room next door, and always the voice of Editor Raddock demanding that reporters get their stories in. Staff members come in and out. Saimtering in from the Grill, Managing Editor Ziegler and News Editor Jody Thompson add a few ideas to Holcadabra. A phone call from the Globe office and someone is sent post haste with some copy and comes back with some proof to be read and reread. Gradually the posted assignment sheet is cov- ered with checks. Alert copy editors correct the copy to be handed to Mike for the final okay. Mildoo wanders in, looking for ideas for features. Mike has that you ' d better-get-it-in-and-right- now look, so McHenry finishes Sportography with a final clatter of the typewriter and hurries his Sports reporters along. Then the columns . . . Helene ' s Society, Har- bin or Scottie ' s Records, Doris ' s Books, Lois ' s Exchange . . . are fitted in the plan for the week ' s paper as a last minute news item comes in. Producing an all-American paper requires co- operation. Those who direct the policies of the Holcad must have a willing, hard working staff who have earned their positions in one way . . . by working for them!

West m Ulster service M en Since Uncle Sam issued his call to colors, a number of Westminster men are doing things on the double along with thousands of other American men. Up to now we have only lost a few men directly from the campus, but a large number of last year ' s Seniors and former faces about campus are in the ranks. They are soldiers, sailors, infantry men, pilots, and marines. Dr. Galbreath has been keeping in touch with many of the fellows and has reported some interest- ing details from this correspondence. Ed Stephens is teaching about twelve hours of classes a week in maps and aerial photography. Don Moorhead, who would have been a sophomore this year, joined the infantry, but he might ex- change this division of service for the flying corps. One of our 1942 freshmen, Doc Rowls, is clerking in the office of the Commanding officer of the Naval Air Base in Jacksonville, Florida. Last year ' s Argo editor, Eddie Rosenberger, spends part of his time assisting the Gen- eral ' s wife. Some soldiers are lucky, some aren ' t; Eddie is! Some of our future recruits may be given their physical examinations by Doc Salman, ex. ' 4 3. He is studying in the Coast Guard Pharmacy School and expects to be making the new draftees say Ah-h very soon. Bob Washabaugh, ex-Titan end, is a cadet in the Naval Air Corps in Lakehurst, New Jersey. His unit flies blimps, not regular airplanes. These men are just a few of our men in the service chosen at random from Dr. Galbreath ' s file of letters. To those men- tioned and every other one who is toting a gun, about the best thought we can give you is Thumbs up! Among those on campus who will soon be in the service of the United States Navy are the men who have enlisted in V-5, the Naval Reserve Air Corps, and in V-7, the Naval Deck and Engineering Officers Reserve. Enlistees of V-5 are required to take the Civil Pilots Training Course as well as meteorology and mathematics. V-7 enlistees, also required to take college math, are deferred from military service until graduation. Then they take a four months training course in the Navy.

Independent Organizations Spartans Quaclr New this year is the non-fraternity men ' s organization which its founders call the Spartans . The idea is old . . . of giving those men who choose to be independent an organization to represent them in campus affairs. This organiza- tion, founded by a small group of men who met in Hillside to organize the independents, meets every second Thursday evening of each month at Hill- side. The Spartans have Prof. Glenn Taylor as their sponsor. Besides accomplishing their main pur- pose, to give the non-fraternity men a voice in campus activities, the Spartans have derived some social benefits from their organization, for they have had time to have some fun also. There was a house-party at Hillside in addition to several stag parties. This year at its initial meeting the newly-organized club selected as its officers the following men: George Visoke, president; George Hawbaker, vice-president; William Mor- rison, treasurer; and Myron Wheeler, secretary. Quadrangle, for those women who do not choose to go sorority, provides recreation and good fellowship. The club was organized last year, and since then has met regularly to enjoy a variety of programs. One of the first meetings was held at Dr. Everett ' s where the girls listened to favorite records and ate some of their hostess ' s famous cookies. A glance at Quadrangle ' s sched- ule for the second semester shows a bowling party and a picnic for the Seniors. Besides the bowling team and the basketball team, there arc music and poetry meetings in the record room of the library. The club also sponsors a special Mothers Day program for its members ' mothers. Quadrangle ' s mem- bers feel that in their organization they have found the answer to the social and extra-curricular problem of the girls who do not care to join a sorority. Officers of Quadrangle are: Margaret Thompson, president; Doris McNary, vice president; Mary McLaughlin, secre- tary; Doris Klein, parliamentarian; with Dr. Everett as the sponsor.

Future Pilotj Until recently New Wilmington ' s afternoon atmosphere was a lazy, un- ruffled one, but now this calm is fre- quently interrupted by the sharp drone of an airplane motor. No, it ' s not a Messerschmidt. It ' s a good old Ainerican model with a Yank at the stick. Last year Westminster added the Civilian Pilot Training course to its curriculum and eleven students completed the course. This year there are ten men in the unit. The course includes studying of civil air rules and regulations, naviga- tion, aircraft operation, aerodynamics or theory of flight, pilots and ratings, and pilot training. Men students between the ages of eighteen and twenty-six, having at least thirty semester hours credit, are eligible for enrollment in C. P. T. if they meet the requirements of the Civil Aeronautics Administration, and pass a physical examination. The ground school, under Mrs. Rebecca Johnston of New Castle, meets every Monday and Wed- nesday nights from seven to ten in Old Main; and the students take actual fly- ing instructions from Pilot Findlay Wil- son at the airport in New Castle. A full- sized forty horsepower Aeronica plane loaned by the New Castle airport, has been set up for demonstration purposes. The plane is fully assembled except for the wings. At the completion of the course the students will be eligible to become private pilots. However, most of them have already joined the Naval Air Corps Reserves in compliance with the oath they must take to apply for training in either the army or navy air corps. The ten men who are working for their wings are: Jack Neville, Robert Erzinger, Bill Kinner, Ed Freeman, Sco- vel Carlson, Jack Cochran, James Lud- wig, Clarence Greer, Ross McNeil, and Jack Getty. At the close of the semester these ten will take standard government tests. Students must have passing grades on all spot quizzes or they are drop- ped from the class. This course is part of Westminster ' s bit towards victory and all we can say is Look out, Japs! when the Titans hit the blue. Ludwig l ' a jc Seventy -seven PAN-HELLENIC COUNCIL . . . The ever timely aim of Pan-Hellenic Council is to co- ordinate the organized social sororities on Westminster ' s campus under an efficient gov- erning group. Besides making and enforcing rules for sorority rushing, Pan-Hell ' s activities included the sponsorship of two dances. This autumn it was the Fall Flop, an old-clothes affair, and in the spring, the Inter-Sorority Formal. Officers of Pan-Hell are Lee Anna Mc- Colgin, President; Winifred Hale, Vice-Presi- dent; Elsie Hetherington, Secretary; and SMYTHE Barbara Busby, Treasurer. at Tribunal INTER-FRATERNITY COUNCIL . . . Inter-Fraternity Council is organized to pro- mote harmonious inter-fraternity relations and to deal with inter-fraternity problems among fraternities on the campus. The two major activities sponsored by the Council this year were the Inter-Fraternity Ball, held at the New Castle Field Club, and rush week. The Council sets the dates for rushing, draws up rushing rules and enforces them. Officers for the year were Den Ewalt, Presi- dent; Harry Manley, Vice-President; Elwin Fuller, Secretary-Treasurer. JOHNSON, suffers STUDENT COUNCIL . . . Student Coun- cil, an important link between student body and faculty, is on the job all the time, not only at the beginning of the year when it spon- sors Freshman Week and Tribunal, but all through the year in Friday chapel programs. Student Council also sponsors Monday after- noon tea dances, and this year it organized the Student Church. Student Coimcil directs class elections and the rallying of the student body for pep meetings before athletic events. The officers are: Mord Taylor, President Paul Hazlett, Vice-President; and Jeanne Snowden, Secretary-Treasurer. SENATE . . . To Senate, a group of repre- sentatives from each girls ' dormitory, falls the task of governing the women students. This year Senate was especially busy in revising women ' s rules which were adopted the second s( mester. Aside from its student governing activities. Senate held several social activities including a mystery thriller movie, the Cotton- MOHN. COLLINS tail Hop, and the traditional Lantern Night in Cosiui honor of the Senior Women.

Until the middle of December, most of the work of the debaters was con- cerned with gathering material on the two debate topics, working up speeches, and giving practice debates at Tuesday evening meetmgs. In December, Westminster held their annual debate tournament, sponsored by Tau Kappa Alpha, in which schools from this area, including Pitt, Carnegie, Tech, Waynesburg, St. Francis, Allegheny, Geneva, Bucknell, Penn State, Hough- ton, Shippensburg, Lock Haven, Mt. Mercy and many others, sent representa- tives to argue the labor question. Debating both formal and Oregon style debates, the Westminster debaters attended the Grove City tournament, Geneva tournament, and many other debates with neighboring schools. Representatives of the group were also sent to the Pan-Ainerican district dis- cussion held in March at the University of Pittsburgh, where a wide knowledge of Pan-American history, politics, geog- raphy and cultural relations with the rest of the world, was required. After attending a Student Congress held at Grove City, a few weeks later, in March, members of the group went to Penn State annual debaters conference for two days where youth ' s part in the war was the topic discussed by the two liimdred twelve delegates from twenty- four colleges of Pennsylvania. When the International Relations Club was reorganized this year, it was co- sponsored by the debaters and the honor- ary Debate fraternity, Tau Kappa Alpha. A series of chapel debates was under- taken by the debaters, and last on the program this year for the debate group came the annual Spring trip through Pennsylvania and Ohio, instead of to the South as in other years. Of the debaters this year, four of them fulfilled their requirements for membership in Tau Kappa Alpha. De- baters were Eleanor Clark, Doris Klein, Jan Hendrickson, Nell Young, Libby Rotzler, Helen Fay, Margaret Faulken- hagen, Merritt Reynolds, Jack Ogle, Don Fox, Don Kidd, George Hawbaker, and Doug Russell. DCCATERS YoiiiiK. Shear, Clark, Rye, Rotzler. Hill lit y es tmins ter To those who spend most of their time in the Conservatory practising piano or clarinet or learning the theory of counterpoint, music has a profound value. And to the others, those who know little of chromatics or diatonics or orchestrations, there is also a value — that of listening to the music of others. Across the street from the peaceful bcrcn ' ity of the McGill library stands a frame building which has been consid- red the noisiest place on campus. Out- jders would call it a madhouse; we call the Conserv. Serving as acting head f the music department, Prof. Donald . Cameron supervises the activities of t)ver one hundred music majors. Mr. Cameron directs the college band, orchestra, and instrumental ensembles, along with teaching the technique of violin playing. Drum .Majorcllc. I. J. KRAMER The College Band is probably one of the most colorful organizations in the school. Fifty-one of our students re- hearse under Mr. Cameron ' s baton twice a week in preparation for football and basketball games and concerts. This year Mr. Cameron added umph ' to the band by introducing three new drum majorettes and a dri m major. Last year the band ' s leadership was supplied by Irma Jean Kramer, diminutive strutter in short pleated skirt, gold-braided jacket and white boots. Instead of the usual Ton Lcfi: RAINEY Top Righi: FALKNER Bottom: CLASS IN CONDUCTING block letter formation, the band used script letters in forming the huge W during its half time maneuvers at foot- ball games. The band not only plays The National Anthem and standard band selections, but also swings out on the Tiger Rag and other popular niun- bers of yesterday. Perhaps you noticed a feminine hand giving the downbeat and keeping the band together at some of the basketball games. That was just Tudge McColgin taking her turn at directing the band ' s activities at one of the athletic events along with the other senior band members. The band pre- sented its spring concert in the Wallace Memorial Chapel on March 30. Near the end of the year those who played in the band for a year and a half received letters, and sweaters were presented to members with three years of active ser- vice to their credit. Every Thursday evening at five o ' clock the band presents a short concert on the South Terrace of Old Main. At the end of the selections, Mr. Cameron leads the band in the Star Spangled Banner and the flag on Old M ain Tower is lowered. Singers in the Chapel Choir miss the seven-thirty permission and give up chapel dates to dash up to Old Main, change from silks and tweeds into black robes with starched white collars and snatch a few minutes of warming up for their rendition of List the Cherubic Host. This year Prof. Gordon Balch Nevin has added the direction of this chapel group to his numerous duties. The choir provides the musical part of our Sunday evening college services. When the Chapel Choir takes the night off, the Girls ' Chorus, under Miss Ada Peabody, leads us in singing the hymns and fills the anthem spot in the chapel service. The chorus is a group of fifty volunteers. Every Wednesday eve- ning at four-thirty they meet in the Con- servatory and work towards perfecting Jesu, Joy of Man ' s Desiring their fav- orite, or Macushla. At their organiza- tion meeting they elected Jane Davies president and Eleanor Berry vice-presi- dent. The College Orchestra is considerably smaller and less prominent than the band, but the concerts it presents are en- joyed by everyone.

CAMl;RON twenty-five musicians in the organization are highly skilled is proved when we hear the string section rehearsing the difficult arpeggios in Atlantis, or the solo trumpet playing accurately the chromat- ics in American Bolero. The orchestra presents two concerts each year. The string ensemble and string quartets, groups selected from orchestra members, perform in these concerts. Next year Mr. Cameron hopes to add a woodwind en- semble to his group of specials. Another special in our music organ- ization is the Madrigal group. It was an old English custom for a group of eight friends to gather in someone ' s home for an evening of relaxation and sit around a long table and sing. Each person had his own part on the table in front of him. Last year the madrigal singers were or- ganized and we all remember their I Wish You a Merry Christmas greeting we received in December. This year Irma Jean Kramer, Norma Gene Rainey, Lee Anna McColgin, Dora Blood, Joe Thompson, Howard Armstrong, James McLaughry, and James Caruso were the chosen eight. Four times each week fifty-five of the best singers of the college meet for an hour of practice in the back room of the Conservatory. These connoisseurs o f the do-re-mi ' s were selected from tryouts which were held at the beginning of the year. They have been rehearsing regu- larly ever since under one of our instruc- tors in voice, Professor Allan B. Davis. Their reportoire ranges from the old classics of Bach and Lrahams to the time- ly compositions of Borowsky and Nobel Cain. In previous years the choir ' s goal was the successful spring concert tour, but this year the trip was cancelled in compliance with the request of the gov- ernment that we cancel many not abso- lutely necessary pleasures for the dura- tion of the war. Three short tours within a one hundred mile radius of the campus replaced the long concert tour. They pre- sented the results of their long hours of practice to a large audience in the Wal- lace Memorial Chapel on Monday eve- ning, April 13. All departments of the college are represented in the choir. Membership is not restricted to music majors alone. In their performances the choir wears robes done in Westminster colors. The main body of the gown is blue, and the trimmings are white. All the singing is done without accompani- ment. The A Cappella choir, known formerly as the Symphonic Choir, is one of th ose really good choirs. After one of their concerts no one is ever hesitant about sticking out his chest and saying, That ' s Our choir. Perhaps in passing the Conserv on any one o f th ree afternoons of the week you have heard some close harmonies on Stout-Hearted Men or another of your favorites. If you have, the credit belongs to our boy ' s quartet, not a radio. The boy ' s quartet is one of the most active and popular entertainment features on the campus. In their three weekly re- hearsals the fellows prepare both sacred and secular numbers. Professor Allan B. Davis tells the quartet the how ' s, when ' s, where ' s, and what ' s of their game. In the fall Joe Thompson, first tenor; Howard Armstrong, second tenor; James McLaughry, first bass; and James Caruso, second bass were chosen for Westminster ' s musical foursome. The boys sang in chapel, on Fathers ' and Mothers ' Day programs, and they have appeared in church services, high schools, and service clubs in this section of Pennsylvania and the eastern part of Ohio. All these organizations, band, orches- tra, choruses, madrigal singers, quartets, sextettes, and others, combine to make our music department one of the most valuable and popular departments in the college.

The founders of the sorority, who estab- lished the first chapter at Syracuse Uni- versity in 1904, chose red, buff, and green as their colors and the crimson rose as their flower. Alpha Gamma Delta supports two summer cainps for under- privileged children, one at Jackson, Michigan, and the other at Welland, On- tario. The local chapter obtained their share of the summer camp fund this year by selling Christmas cards. The Alpha Gams also celebrated the Christmas season with other activities such as a party in the suite honoring Mrs. Russell, their patroness, and a dinner dance held at the Chatterbox in Pittsburgh. Dur- ing the year they enjoyed a hayridc, taffy pulls, and parties in the suite. In the spring Mrs. Russell held a buffet dinner and bridge party for the girls. Eager to do their part in defense work, the Alpha Gams spend their spare time knitting and sewing for the Red Cross. They also held a candy sale, the pro- ceeds from which they contributed to the Red Cross.

Sigma Kappa ' s first mem- bers chose as their colors maroon and lavender, and as their sorority flower the violet. The sorority promotes altruistic work as well as high standards of schol- arship and a program of social activities. Two social workers in the poverty-strick- en and isolated areas of the Maine sea- coast are supported by Sigma Kappa. Mrs. Reuter and Mrs. MacConagha are the patronesses of the local chapter. This year the sorority has been par- ticularly active on campus. There were spaghetti dinners at Savoldi ' s, boxes for the children of the Maine Sea Coast Mission, a U.S.O. benefit tea, a Christ- mas party given by the patronesses, a hayride with hot dogs and hot chocolate at Galbreath ' s, a theater party and shower for Billie Taylor, a spring picnic for the seniors, and a barbecue.

I ' lii r Onr lluiuliCil I ' liui CAPT. EVANOFF Winning five games out of an eight- game schedule, Westminster ' s Blue and White football team closed the season with the best record seen by Titan grid squads in the last thirteen years. Competently tutored by Head Coach Grover C. Washabaugh, Assistant Coach Dave Boyd, and Line Coach Melvin Hetzler, a young but experienced squad overcame bad breaks and injuries to take wins from Carnegie Tech, Hiram, Geneva, Juniata, and Bethany. The three losses on the schedule were suffered at the hands of Slippery Rock, Thiel, and Grove City. Led by Captain Pete Evanoff, the team travelled to Pittsburgh to meet Car- negie Tech in Pitt Stadium for its first game of the season. Scoring in the open- ing minute of play on a blocked kick, the Titans were never headed and left the Stadium with a 19-13 victory. Dick Newton, sophomore back, led the attack with two touchdown runs of 28 and 86 yards, and Dale Riggle accounted for the other score with a line plunge from the one-yard line. Just as Tech was caught, so were the Titans humbled m their second game, at Slippery Rock. Superior line power gave the Westminster men a 13-4 lead over the Rockets in first downs, but an inter- cepted pass late in the game by the Slip- pery Rock center gave the Teachers their 6-0 lead over the Titans. Showing powerhouse comeback the ne.xt week, Washabaugh ' s squad swamped the team for Hiram, Ohio, by a 20-0 score. Riggle opened the scoring in the first period by smashing off tackle, and then Joe DeMoise tossed a beautiful 40- yard pass to Bud Wilson for the second six-pointer. Joe DeMoise again figured MURPHY RIGGIE WILSON NEWTON OSSOFF 58 L 25 in the scoring when he snagged a pas from Joe Mastro in the end zone for th final touchdown, and kicked two of th three extra points. Meeting the Geneva Covenanters nex on a rain-soaked Titan field, the Blu and White squad reached their peak o the season as they marked up a 7-0 vie tory over their blood-rivals. The sing! touchdown came after the Titans lost th ball on downs on Geneva ' s 12-yard line the first quarter. The Geneva kick wa blocked by Joe De Moise and Park Glas fell on the ball in the end zone, to sen Geneva home a defeated team. The Titans tackled Thiel in their fiftl game of the season, and bowed at th hands of the undefeated Greenvill squad, 14-0. Thiel scored in the last three seconds of the first half on a trick for- ward pass from a lateral, and again in the last minute of the fourth quarter on another pass. Westminster came back on the winning of the books with a 27-12 win over the Juniata squad. Trailing 6-0 at the end of the first period, the Titans pushed over two touchdowns in the second quarter and two more in the last stanza. Riggle opened the scoring with a plunge from the three-yard line; Murphy took a lateral from Evanoff in midfield and gal- loped the rest of the way for the second score; Riggle bucked the line again for the third touchdown, and Joe DeMoise ended the scoring spree by picking off a pass in the end zone. Svvamped by a first-quarter power- house, the Titans were unable to break the 20-0 lead piled up by a fast-passing Grove City squad in the next game.

KICK-OFF AT CARNKGIE TECH ZECH HAMILTON stuck to defensive tactics and held the Grovers scoreless in the remaining three periods. In the final game of the season, the local squad traveled to Bethany and took its fifth win of the season from the Bisons by a 7-0 score. Dick Newton slammed off tackle for eight yards and the touchdown, and Riggle added the extra point on a pass. Although seriously hampered by in- juries, the fine defensive line developed by Coach Mel Hetzler contributed great- ly to the Titans ' successful season.

By combining a Hght, fast backfield with a brick wall line, the Westminster squad was able to rain its record-break- ing season.

Opening Mu .i r]iegie Tech on the Pitt burgyP or, Coach Washabaugh ' s g I itans got off to a good start with a 53-36 win over the Plaid squad. Dunmire and Spak tied for first place scoring honors with 12 points each, and Wasik; was a close second with 1 1 . A 49-38 victory over the Slippery Rock quintet introduced a new Titan star to Westminster fans. With the Rockets leading, freshman Bill McLhinney sank five long shots out of six attempts and later added another two-pointer to give him high-scoring title for the evening with 12 markers. Showing a marked improvement over their erratic shooting in the Slippery I ' liiir Our lluiiJri J Tiiclvr Rock game, the Blue and White cagers racked up a 69-33 win over Bethany. Ridl and Duninire led the scoring parade with 12 points each. The first defeat of the season came when the Titans ran up against the pow- erful Duquesne squad in the Hilltoppers gym. Although Westminster held a 19- 18 edge at the half, the Dukes forged ahead to win the game by a two-point margin, 34-32. Joe Spak again surprised local fans by breaking away from his usual defensive play to lead the scoring with 10 points. Makmg a strong comeback after the Duquesne defeat, the Blue and White team scored an easy 42-27 win over the Waynesburg Jackets before a crowd of 5,000 in Pittsburgh ' s Duquesne Gardens. By out-fighting a tough Washington and Jefferson five in their next game, the Titans took the edge in their 13- game series with the Presidents by a 49-45 decision, Lee Fox leading the Titan scoring with 12 points. Playing two games on a home-and- home basis with Youngstown, Washa- baugh ' s cagers came from behind in the last quarter to take a 61-55 win from the Penguin passers in the first game. The second contest was a repetition of the first, with the Blue and White coming out on top by a 54-41 count. Playing a return game with Slippery Rock on the Rocket s home floor, West- minster ' s squad again proved its superi- ority to the Teachers with an easy 65-40 win, only to drop the next game to Geneva by a 49-46 count. Continuing their losing streak, the FJue and White bowed before a superior Toledo team the next week, 50-43. Fresh- man Charles Goldblum, substituted in the last ten minutes of play, was high man for the locals with 12 points. Hot for revenge tor their previous defeat, the Titan five met Geneva on the Westminster floor and out-passed and out-played the Covenanters to take a 40-31 victory from their rivals.

Reputedly much stronger than tlic West Chester team, the Milicrsville quin- tet was no match for an inspired Titan sqi nns they rolled up a 63-46 count. Bij Ridl was high scorer for the locals 15 points, Dunmire again taking sec- d, tins tune with 14 points. Back on the losing side of the ledger, the Titans dropped their next two games, osing to Brooklyn college by a close 45-43 score and bowing under the might of a superior Villanova team by a 47-42 count. The next game featured the Westmin- ster quintet in a lopsided battle with Bethany college, tlie local passers walk- ing away with tiie long end of a 79-47 score. Fox easily outdistanced his team- mates in the scormg columns with the record of 17 points. Ptiijr Our IliinJiiJ Fuurtcrn Taking the lead in the first quarter, the Westminster squad maintained its winning margin throughout the game to take a 5 3-48 victory from Pitt. Wasik was high man with 19 points, on seven fielders and five free throws, while Panther center Ed Ziokowski took sec- ond place honors with 16. Completely wiping out the stain of their earlier 34-32 defeat at the hands of the Duquesne squad, the Titans fought their way to a 37-34 win over the Dukes in the return contest. Wasik stole the scoring show with 12 points, followed by Ridl with eight. Closing their season against Carnegie Tech, the Towering Titans took a 50-36 win from the Tartans to run their record to 16 games won and five lost.

Coach Fei ris Captained by Warren Buttons Pol- lock, this year ' s team broke every pool record that has ever been set at West- minster. Pollock and Jim Ludwig took care of tiie dash events for the tankers; Hamel, Brownscombe, and Stuntz starred in the distance races; Houston, Jack and Bill Scheid the breaststroke ; Brooks and Colburn the backstroke. The freshman team of Colburn, Scheid, Stuntz, and Copeland helped out in the district meets, and won the freshman medley and free- style relays in the Pcnn-Ohio ineet. Westminster swimming teams have come a long way since they began inter- collegiate competition four years ago, and great plans are held for the future. Undefeated in intercollegiate matches, and winners of the Penn-Oiiio swimming meet — a record that the Westminster swimming team and Coach Joe Ferris may well be proud of. With a veteran squad of relay swim- mers and sprint men from last season, aided by one of the best freshman teams in the history of Westminster, the Titan tankers built a team that went undefeated through a schedule of ten college meets. The swimmers won two meets each from Grove City and Slippery Rock, and took single victories from Fenn, Hdinhoro, Washington and Jefferson, Carnegie Tech, and Western Reserve.

Houston Cross-Countrv . . .Traclv T racL Cross - Coil n irv Runners-up in the district last year, the Blue and White track team will try to go one better and take top honors this season when the district meet is run off at Geneva May 16. The Titan trackmen have five collegiate meets before the dis- trict competition brings the season to a close. Thirty prospects answered Coach Joe Ferris ' call for candidates early in the spring, with a promising crop of fresh- men reporting to help the returning vet- erans. Several of the lettermen who will be on hand this year are Fred Miller, high jump and pole vault stand-out; Jim Edwards, sprint man and member of the relay teams; and Christy, Fox, Anderson, and Clements, all expert runners. Brief work-outs are held in the gym until warm weather permits the track- men to practice outside. The first meet is scheduled with Carnegie Tech on April 25, and other contests have been ar- ranged with Slippery Rock, Geneva, Grove City, and Washington and Jeffer- son. Following last year ' s procedure, the Titans will stage all their meets away from home, the absence of suitable equipment on the local field making home meets impossible. Of the five op- ponents on the schedule, the Blue and White squad defeated only W. C J. last year, but with a more experienced squad Coach Ferris expects better results this season. Interest in track at Westminster is increasing, as can be seen by the larger number of men reporting for practice since the sport was begun four years ago. The Titan cross-country team climaxed a highly successful season this year by beating the best long distance runners in the district in the annual Tri-State meet, after going undefeated throughout their eight-game collegiate schedule. Sparked by Jim Edwards, who led the field for the second consecutive year, the Ferris-coached harriers came out ahead in the district meet by a 24-47 score. Throughout this year ' s campaign, Ed- wards, a senior, finished first on six dif- ferent occasions out of seven races in which he participated. The rest of the squad, five juniors and two freshmen, will be back next year. Al Trafton, first year man, was one of the main reasons why the Titan squad rolled along to a perfect season. Wheeler was another consistent runner-up, and Clem- ents, Christy, Anderson, Kidd, and Fox did their part in building a perfect season for the Westminster cross-country team. In the Tri-State meet, Edwards took first place, beating out runners from Bethany, Slippery Rock, Thiel and Geneva. Trafton took third place, Clem- ents placed fifth, and Anderson finished in ninth. Christy and Wheeler com- pleted the Blue and White scoring, com- ing in deadlocked for the tenth position. The Titan record for the season shows a 16-39 victory over Slippery Rock in the opening meet, a 24-31 win over Hiram, a 26-39 score from the Bethany Bisons, two forfeits from Thiel, and a 16-39 vic- tory over Slippery Rock in a return en- gagement. 1. 1 1 lib- 1- n CROSS-COUNTRY TEAM Back Row: Ferris.

Golf ennis Tennis Coach Biberich ' s call for tennis candi- dates found 13 men reporting to the gvm to begin their indoor work-outs. After a month of preliminary practice sessions, the team gets off to an early start against Slippery Rock, April 18. Although the top three men of last year ' s successful squad, which won eight and lost two engagements, will be mis- sing, the Titans have five veterans re- turning and should continue as one of the leading teams in the district. Bill Meckling, elected captain for the 1942 season, will lead the netmen in the No. 1 slot. McRae, Montague, and Jamison, junior lettermen, are sure to see lots of action this year. Other candidates fighting for a place on the team are freshmen Hope, Waltz, Casement, Mil- ler, and O ' Melia; sophomores Kingsbury and Horean; and junior Scovron. An uncompleted schedule matches the Titans against the Rockets in their opener, with matches against W J, Carnegie Tech, and .Allegheny following. Golf Led by veterans Bob Erzinger and Ted Ossoff, 14 men reported for the golf team when the first call was issued this spring. Although hampered by having only tuo veteran players on the squad, the golfers have three teams to build from and hope to produce a winning combination in time for their first match. Of the freshmen candidates, Lou Grossman shows the greatest promise, while upper-classmen Howard Armstrong and Joe Christy promise championship material. The team, coached by Grover C. Washabaugh, hopes to better the record it set last year, and plans to give more men au opportunity to play in tiie scheduled collegiate matches. Following their opening match with Slippery Rock on the home course on April 17, the Titans meet Grove City College, away. May 1; Slippery Rock, away. May 12; Carnegie Tech, here. May 13; and enter the Allegheny Invitational golf tournament at Conncaiit Lake on May 15. Always an important part of everyone ' s life, athletics are especially popular with Westminster women. Hockey in the fall, swimming, basketball, bowling, volley- ball, and badminton in the winter, tennis, golf, archery in the spring — all go to make up the curriculum of women ' s sports at Westminster. Interclass hockey games are played on the hockey field between Browne Hall and Science Hall, with keen competition existing over the coveted honor of win- ning the class championship. This year, two of the sororities even had football teams; complete with helmets and shoul- der pads they fought it out to the bitter end, throwing bruises and scratches to the winds for the honor of their sorori- ties. There are both interclass and inter- sorority volley ball m the wmter gym classes, and for the first time this year an intersorority basketball league was organized. W.A.A. basketball teains play faculty squads, and put on exhibi- tion games preliminary to regular col- legiate contests. Swimming is popular with everyone, and the Mermaids spend hours in the water preparing for their annual spring Mermaid pageant. Hiking is especially popular in the spring, when Outing Club and W.A.A. sponsor hikes into the sur- rounding country, and to the Outing Club cabin where dinners are cooked over an open fire. Some of the girls ride horseback, soine of them fish and hunt, while others pre- fer the less strenuous sports of bowling and archery. Athletics play an increas- ingly important part in the life of a woman. VC omen In Sports I Atliletic CluK s W. A. A. Back Row: Greiner. Wilson, Young. Treviti. R. Galbreath, Danley. Hendrickson.

W.A.A., the women ' s athletic associa- tion, is popular with sport-loving co-eds, who become members by participating in team sports such as hockey, volley-ball, basketball, and mushball, sponsored by the organization. Each year a W.A.A. blanket is award- ed to the senior girl who has been the most outstanding of her class in athletics and a scholarship of thirty-five dollars to the junior girl who has been most active in sports. These awards are given at the annual W.A.A. banquet held at the Tavern in May. The officers of W.A.A. for 1941-42 were: Betty Horne, president; Dorothy Beckman, vice-presi- dent; Martha Barnhill, secretary; and Mildred Gorby, treasurer. Block W Block W is the men ' s varsity athletic club made up of men who have earned letters in basketball and football. The aim of the club as was determined when Block W reorganized in 1936 is to foster inter-collegiate athletic competition. Once a year early in fall this organization of letter men starts off the season with the first formal dance of the year in the college gymnasium at which time the members of the club announce the name of the senior co-ed whom they have chosen to be Miss Block W. This year ' s queen was Winnie Kent, Johns- town senior. A erniaids Mermaids, the outstanding women swimmers of Westminster, bring glamour to the campus pool. Their purpose is to promote new mterest m recreational swimming and to give its members the opportunity of participating in forma- tion swimming. The Mermaids have fre- quent splashes m the college pool. In the spring of every year they present a beautiful water pageant. For several months before the event, they sacrifice two evenings a week and their coiffures to practice in the difficult formations. This year the event was called The Bubble Brigade. The large audience saw forty capable girls in light blue bath- ing suits carry out unusual stunts of formation swimming. N eptunc Llub Neptune Club, founded in 1939, is one of the newest organizations on the cam- pus. Its purpose is to encourage com- petitive swimming among the men stu- dents. Every year the club puts on an aquacade of fancy swimming and diving. sponsors the interf raternity swimming meet on Mothers Day, and life-saving classes. Each member must have his varsity swimming letter and pass a test based on his aquatic skill and knowledge of swimming. Members of Neptune Club are all eligible to give the Red Cross life saving tests. The head of the club this year is Warren Pollock. P(uic Otic llurulriil Tivfnly-l irrr camn4 iA Mr-i. Taylor.

To these the staff wishes to give its sincere thanks for the work these people have done and the head- aches and worries that they have saved us. First we wish to thank Mr. Brennan, the faculty advisor of the Argo, who has helped us innumerable times. Then there is Russ Snyder, tech nical advisor, who has shown us the best way to overcome the difficulties connected with achieving third dimension. Mr. F. F. Rutter ' s suggestions in the printing of this book have been of immeasurable value. Mr. Harry Pinkerson, our smil- ing photographer, turned out some very fine work; and Bob Erzinger, although a senior, took some of the most difficult shots in the book and gave his time to the Argo even though he was not required to do so. Jim Moss and Don Wanner, our sophomore photographers helped a great deal also. We want to thank Joe Young of the class of ' 39 for his advice in editing a yearbook and also Ed Rosenberger, last year ' s editor. Mr. Murphy, head of the Journalism Department, cooperated willingly and helpfully whenever he was needed. Mr. Baker, the cover authority, helped us to solve the technical aspects of the cover design. All these and many more have aided in the production of this year ' s book, and the thanks and recog- nition given here is only too inadequate for the help they have given to the 194?
