Volume thirty-ninc, published by the Junior Class of Westminster College, New Wilmington. Pa. To the Westminster men now in the services of our country. To you who are fighting and training in the Army, Navy, Marines, Air Corps, you who are keeping our nation and our world the kind of place which will uphold and cherish the Christian traditions of our college, this 1944 Argo is respectfully dedicated. For a time you must put aside your high hopes and ideals, give up everything you had long desired, and condition your minds and your bodies for the terrible task set for you to do, to fight and to kill in every sector of the World. You may ask, Must I fight and kill; is it all worthwhile? — Only the future will tell. It must be worthwhile. Your job must be to restore mankind to a level of decency and respect for one another. We must all do more than our share, and do it when we are called upon. Those of you who are fighting now, our debt to you can never be repaid. One Bell, the first division of the Argo, presents in picture para- graph form the college administrators, the faculty, and the students at work. AtUleilcA Two Bells honors Westminster ' s men of might . . . their spirit and ability. Their victories and defeats on the gridiron, on the hard- wood, in the pool, and on the cinder-path are recorded in this — the second division. AciuMytleA and Jicmanx2Aieyl Three Bells heralds the extra curricular activities developed by the students and sponsored by the faculty to encourage coop eration, initiative, and self-assurance among the student body. In this third division we find pictured all those things which are so essential to a well-rounded college life. Four Bells recalls the friendships and loyalties one holds for his fraternal organization. These are the groups which compose one of the most active forces on campus. The fourth division brings back memories of rushing, hell-week, pledging and houseparties. six . . . seven . . . eight! Eiglit o ' clock and tlie Prot. listening tor that last stroke of the chime places a check after the name of some absent Johnny who missed the alarm. Too late for the roll call, a sleepy student fumbles with the doorknob, crashes into class and trips over a row of feet as he gropes for his seat. Afternoons bring long hours in smelly labs with always the wishful thought that maybe some day one of :very fifteen min- utes a weary lab student checks his watch to see if by any possible chance he has missed one of the quarter hour chime tunes, and imagining what he could do to one of Mount s doughnuts. An empty coke bottle rests beside a pile of disorderly notes and a student, dreaming of villain- ous profs, mumbles snatches of crammed learning as he tosses in his sleep.

GAL- BREATH, DEAN TURNER. -y , and ail the ea id- He IS so many things: deliverer of beautiful sermons . . . champion apple picker . . . after dinner spellbinder . . . multiple committee head . . . airplane observer . . . above all, our President, Dr. Robert Ferguson Galbreath. With endless energy, he is devoting himself to homefront activi- ties. Not only does he write countless letters to Westminster ' s service men, but he keeps a scrap- book of their pictures. Besides doing farm work himself, he has aroused students ' interest in cul- tivating a college victory garden. Truly if we can learn by example, we can Imd no hotter model than Dr. Galbreath. He is in our hearts and in the hearts of all Westminsterites who have known him. When Maxwell R. Kelso, dean of the college, now serving in the U. S. Navy as a Lieutenant Senior grade, rose in morning chapel, students listened carefully; he w. s the authority on the Army ' s latest decision, the Navy ' s new ruling. In our unsettled state he inspired confidence, served well to quiet those wild rumors, and calmed us in general. Tiiis year the Dean had a great responsibility. liis job at any tune is hard, and with Naval Cadets on campus luider his authority, he had more to do than ever before. Dean Kelso patiently explained all changes in the plans of the armed forces, planned accelerated courses for men who were soon to leave tor service, and all in all, tuned the college to a faster, wartime pitch. When Dean Kelso was called by the Navy m March, his many duties were turned over to two members of the faculty. Dr. Harold L. Black was appointed Acting Dean and Mr. Russell N. Cans- ler was named Director of the Navy War training program on the campus. She ' ll understand, . . . this is the hope of the girls who each day walk into Dean Mary E. Turner ' s friendly office. They find it is easy to talk with her, and their troubles smooth out. No accident, this, for Dean Turner ' s long experience with college women stands her in good stead. We will always remember her as a representative of the most pleasant part of our college life. That long talk over our troubles . . . the before-dinner prayer, these and many other things we associate pleasaiuK ' with our Dean of Women. 12 Head of the English Department is Miss Mary M. Purdy, AB., A.M., Ph.D. Assisting her are Miss Virginia Everett, A.B., A.M., Ph.D., Mrs. Mary C. McConagha, A.B., A.M., Mr. James Baker, A.B., A.M., and Mr. Michael Radock, A.B. In the spacious English office Mrs. Mac sits talking with two freshmen; laughing at one of her jokes, they promise to improve their spelling. Mr. Baker comes in with a lecture folder under his arm, The travel poster in my room is loose again. Will one of you assistants paste it up again, please? Dr. Everett sits writing com- ments on papers in red ink, suggesting your kind of book , and giving advice on investigative themes. Dr. Purdy, busy with theses and practice teach- ers, finds time to make fudge for lucky English majors now m the service. ecyLetan ial Science epoAimeHi Long hours spent m an all-afternoon typing lab pounding keys to finish a budget, swift fingers whizzing over office machines, peppy, persuasive sales speeches . . . these are the ear marks of the secretarial science department, one of the most popular and most modern departments on the campus. Mr. Russell N. Cansler, B.S., LL.B., M.A., is head of the department and teaches effective courses in methods of teaching commercial sub- jects, business management, shorthand, and office practice. Assisting him are two new additions to the faculty. Mr. Robert F. Galbreath, Jr., B.B.A., teaches business English, bookkeeping, salesmanship, and typing. Miss Sarah B. Hamil- ton, B.B.A., instructs the students in shorthand, typing, office practice, and salesmanship. Science ' e animent Can ' t . . . have to go to lab . . . the inevit- able answer of a science major when asked to do anything. On cold wmter days, on spring eve- nings, these students can be seen trudging up to Science Hall to finish that absorption test, imbed a chick embryo, or write up a physics experiment. On the first floor. Dr. Bert E. Quick, A.B., Ph.D., Botanical Gardens, Java, punctuates his evolution lectures with sarcastic, anti-Nazi re- marks. In the spring, his botany classes follow him on lengthy field trips and scribble down characteristics of local plants. Under the super- vision of Dr. Donald C. Matthews, B.S., Ph.D., biology majors study comparative anatoiny as the odor of dogfish permeates the lab. Second to his enthusiasm over cat anatomy is Dr. Matthew ' s delight in bewildering timid freshmen. Chemistry students listen intently as Dr. Harlow Osgood, B.S., M.S., Ph.D., paces out his lectures. Dr. Edward A. Metcalf, A.B., M.A., Ph.D., fascinates his organic chemistry class by doodling on the desk with his fingers, after which he erases the doodling. Likewise, Mr. B. W. Powell, B.S., M.S., M.A., teaches students equa- tions and directs their lab work. Dr. Charles Freeman, Professor Emeritus, A.B., Ph.D., LL.D., frequently observes the progress the seniors are making with their theses. Since the accelerated program began. Dr. James A. Swindler, A.B., A.M., Ph.D., hurries around in the physics department day and night. He in- structs both Naval Cadets and college students in the physical sciences. Dr. Swindler is ably as- sisted by Dr. John G. Moorehead, A.B., A.M., Ph.D. After spending three hours on one ex- periment, the future physicists often hear, We have a good theory here, but I don ' t know what we ' re proving. No department is more vital in the college to- day than the mathematics department. War neces- sitates immediate, thorough training in the exact sciences; therefore math courses are in demand. The Naval Air Cadets stationed on Westmin- ster ' s campus were instructed for six weeks periods in arithmetic, algebra, geometry, and vector com- putor. Head of the department is Dr. Harold L. Black, A.B., A.M., Ph.D., a member of Sigma Xi and the American Mathematics Society, who keeps stu- dents awake with his witty quips. Assistants are Miss Lola Sewall, B.S., M.L., and G. W. H. Powell, B.S., M.S., M.A. Me ' efiaAiment The Bible and Philosophy department suffered a second-semester loss of two-thirds of the stu- dents, as the armed services claimed more and more men. To fit war needs the department will offer its courses to summer-school students. The department head is Dr. John Orr, A.B., M.A., B.D., Ph.D. He is assisted by Dr. Ralph Neale, A.B., B.D., D.D., of the local United Presbyterian church. Dr. Nealc took a leave of absence in February to assist the chaplain at a North Caro- lina army camp. A tiew add ' t ' on to the depart- ment is Mr. Wayne Christy, B.D., A.M., replacing Mr. Jamison. fieeck and cimaticd. ibefiaAtmeni Head of the Speech and Dramatics Department is Dr. Albert T. Cordrav. A.B., A.M., Ph.D., known to his students as Teacher . Dr. Cordray has been rather hard hit tins past year, for two of his able assistant professors have Top Icfl: Science I!)ep.ir!nienl. Top (o bottom: Mnthoiiiatics, liiblc. Spcfch .incj Dr.iin.ili, . I. gunge. m been called by the army; first, Mr. Glenn Taylor; then, Mr. William W. Hamilton who taught until Christmas time. In January Dr. Cordray took over most of the classes of the department, as- sisted only by his wife, Mrs. Albert T. Cordray, who is teaching a class in argumentation. Besides teaching classes of Stagecraft, History of the Theater, and Speech, Dr. C ' ordray usually directs the Little Theater productions. Dr. Cordray ' s biggest job, perhaps, is as acting Dean of Summer School, a position for which he IS we U-fitted. The Modern Language Department is headed by Miss Elizabeth Stewart, A.B., A.M., who teaches French. She has traveled in Germany, Switzerland, and France and is deeply concerned uith the fate of the cathedrals and art treasures of those countries. Professor of Spanish is Mr. Jose Arevelo, A.B., A.M., whose home town in Chile was completely destroyed by an earthquake. A veteran of World War I, he was with the Army of Occupation in Germany for seven months and has since traveled in England, France, Germany, and Switzerland. Mr. Walter Biberich, A.B., A.M., professor of German, received part of his education in Ger- many and then came to the United States in 1926. He was ordained as a Baptist minister and served as a home missionary for several years before coming to Westminster in 1933. Mr. Biberich is helpmg the war effort by working at the tool fac- tory. His favorite means of transportation now IS a bicycle. Ancient 2anciMacf£A. Dr. Gilbert H. Taylor, A.B., Ph.D., had a two year fellowship to the American Academy at Rome and after that a Johnston fellowship in Latin at Johns Hopkins University. He has been at Westminster since 1925 as professor of ancient languages and head of the department. In Feb- ruary he became an honorary inember of Kappa Phi Lambda fraternity. He teaches Greek, Latin, and ancient history, with Latin as his main inter- est. Dr. Taylor ' s favorite recreational pastime, driving his automobile, has been practically nil since gas rationing struck the district. Come out through the back door of the library some day if you want to hear Westminster ' s conserv — as it is represented by a variety of harmonies and discords, tone quality and just plain noise. Dr. Donald Cameron, B.M., M.Ed., heads the list of music faculty. He directs the college band and orchestra and teaches violin and theory classes. Other members of the music faculty include: Miss Dorothy Kirkbride, A.B., B.M., M.A., piano, counterpoint, and music his- tory instructor; Mr. Alan B. Davis, voice instruc- tor and director of the a cappella choir; Miss Ada Peabody, B.M., A.M., teacher of music teaching methods and director of the Girls ' Glee Club; Mr. Edward Freeman, A.B., teacher of piano and music history; Mr. Gordon Balch Nevin, composer and organist of note, teacher of Dr. Gilbert Taylor. Ancient Languages. Musii [ i[i.irinunt. organ. Part time instructors include members of the Youngstown Symphony orchestra and Mr. DaHineyer Russell of Pittsburgh Musical Institute, teacher of piano. The Business Department is headed by Captain William McKee, A.B., A.M., Harvard University School of Business Administration. Cappy , as he is known to the students, teaches Economic In- stitutions and Business Administration. He is assisted by Mr. Herbert C. Graebner, B.S., M.B.A., and two Westminster graduates, Mr. Frank M. Bretthole, B.B.A., M.B.A., and Mr. Ross Ellis, B.S., M.B.A. Zducaiio- t and Pi i ckcdcK i War has necessitated several changes in the positions of the Education and Psychology De- partment this year, although the special interests of the department remain the same. Outstanding is the extensive personnel program with its stu- dent profile charts and its guidance program for the benefit of the students. The development of this guidance program was the particular aim of the former liead of the department, Dr. William L. Renter, B.S., M.Ed., D.Ed., who is now a Lieutenant Junior grade in the U. S. Navy. His place has been taken by Mr. Carroll Leeds, A.I ., M.A.; with two years toward Ph.D. at the LJniversity of Minnesota. Mr. Leeds ' hobby outside his field of Psychology and Education is instrumental music. He is the one who supervises that Senior Scare , practice teaching. Residence Director Margaret P. Graff, A.B., M.A., instructor in Psychology, enjoys knit- ting, g ardening, or reading outside of her Browne Hall duties. Mr. Harold Brennan of the Art De- partment, A.B., M.A., was designated as the in- structor of the Junior Education class after the departure of Dr. Reuter. William A. Johns, M.S., Director of Public Re- lations, is usually the first person met by poten- tial students coming to look over Westminster. His is the big job of showing off the campus to visitors and selling the college to them. Mr. Johns could perhaps easily win as the friendliest man on campus , for passing him on the street, his hearty, characteristic hello , makes a cold world seem somehow warmer. This cheer- ful disposition plays no small part in his success and popularity uith students, faculty, and admin- istration. The librarians and their student assistants have the huge job of classifying, recording fines, mend- ing and binding books, and carrying on book drives for soldiers — all at the same time. How- ever, Miss Helen Hauck, Librarian, Miss Mabel Kocher and Miss Anne Skoog, Assistant Librar- ians, smile while working and greet everyone who cotnes into the library with a cheery but hushed hello . 16 01 lice (Pice The office force holds an important place in the business affairs of Wesminster; receiving student payments, scheduling courses, and registering stu- dents are just a few of its many tasks. The capable force includes Miss Mary Isabel Ramsey, re- corder; Miss Corinne Mercer, secretary to Dr. Galbreath; and Mr. Ross Ellis, business manager. Others are Miss Clara McCandless, assistant to the business manager; Miss Mary Eleanor Patton, accoimtant; Miss Elsie Johnson, secretary; and Mr. Alfred Shaffer, superintendent of the build- ings and grounds. Responsible for physical training at Westmin- ster are Mrs. Glen Taylor, A.B., M.E., Mr. Grover Washabaugh, B.S., Mr. Dave Boyd, B.P.E., and Mr. Joseph Ferris, B.S. BiUie has stressed calisthenics this year as part of the girls ' program. There is also drilling in gym classes — cadence, count, right face, and forward march resounding from the dormitories as an after effect — to help prepare Westminster women for the WAVES, WAACS, SPARS, and Women ' s Marine Corps. Head of the department is Dr. Leon S. Mar- shall, A.B., A.M., Ph.D., who steers freshmen through a survey course tracing the evolution of Western civilization and guides majors in thesis and advanced history courses. A study of the structure and functions of American government is taught by Mr. Thomas V. Mansell, A.B., LL.B. The newest addition to the department, Mr. Neil A. McNall, B.S., M.A., conducts Ameri- can History and Sociology classes. Dean Max- well R. Kelso, A.B., M.A., Ph.D., taught several history courses before he entered the United States Navy.

These students are selected on the basis of scholarship, extra-curricular activities, character and potential useful- ness to society. 18 For four winters we have watched the snow bank up in heavy glittering mounds on either side of the library door; we have seen it spattered with soot and melting down into grimy puddles of water. We have seen four springs lighten the trees with soft green fuzz through which the campus lights glowed pale orange. We have kicked our feet through heaps of red maple leaves; we have swatted flies in the class- rooms; we have shivered ever cold radiators. Once we screamed Van ' s the Man and Dewey for Pres- ident at a three a. m. session of a Mock Conven- tion. We jitterbugged to Seven-Twenty in the Books , and we sighed and dipped to Indian Sum- mer . We stood in the greyness and watched three station wagons leave with our fellows. We learned army insignia, lived for the mail, wrote daily letters. We shall miss standing on the town bridges watching the quick water, eating the Bakery ' s doughnuts, see- ing the orange lights come on through the still dark- ness. MERRITT REYNOLDS — Above.

Jun- ior CMass President; DONA VI AK POUND. Secretary: J. K. CAIN. Treasurer. Westminster ' s Junior Class this year consists of several groups. First there is the group of Juniors whom you may still see stuinbling over one another every morning to reach their chapel seats in the junior balcony, and who are domg the same things this year that junior classes have al- ways done — publishing their Argo, choosing their May Queen, trying to slide through Junior Bible together. But besides this group, we have the section of the Junior CJlass which is studying in distant places like St. Petersburg and San Diego rather than Old Main and Science Hall — the men in the service. Our class includes those men who were called to the service last year and must re main sophomores for the duration, the regular juniors, the summer school seniors . Our Junior Class is the graduating class of August ' 43, January ' 44, May ' 44, and also the gradu- ating class of the second year after the war.

We pad- dled those freshmen, saw them through Tribunal, pledged them, then paddled them again, and finally accepted them. But our sophomore year somehow hasn ' t been quite as boastful or cocky as we expected. The war happened to us in our freshmen year but it wasn ' t until this fall that we felt it. Then we worked along with the rest of the classes to help out Lawrence county farmers. Sophomore Nancy Slinker picked more apples than anyone else, too. We sent our share to the service. Basketball demon Charlie Goldblum and class president, Virgil Wilson were called. But there were more — Cherol, Hope, and O ' Melia, Zimmerman, Waltz, and Reznik to mention a few. The girls helped establish a new sophomore women ' s honorary. They called it Sceptre and had ten charter members. We spread out in all activities with Krakowski on the Holcad, Holschuh on the Argo, and Simpson on Scrawl. Hven with the war our second year in college was full of activity, study, and memory. We will be back next year as . . . Juniors! 37 J Left to right: DORIS DIETZ. Secy. EV SMITH, Pres. BILL LAURIE. V. P. t J. ALLOWAYS M. ALSOP M. ANAWICH M. ANDERSON M. APPLEBY W. BALDWIN B. BAKER C.

Breathless mo- ments, close scores, replacements, but after them all comes the sound everyone has been expecting — the Victory bell. Westminster has done it agam. The Blue and White has another triumph. The football eleven, the war-dnninished five, the tankers are all men of whom we can be proud. But what has happened to the Spring sports? War. War, the conscriptor of men, the canccllor of schedules, has hit our campus as it has hit others. But as each nian goes, the ones who re- main behind realize more fully that they must prepare and strengtiien their bodies to better meet the tasks before them. W-E-S-T-M-l-N-S-T-E-R- Top: HOLUB. E.

After an impressive start against Edinboro, tlie Titans, bothered by injuries, fell into a slump which lasted through the month of October. They lost to Slippery Rock, Carnegie Tech, and Geneva, and stalemated with Hiram, before they tasted victory against Bethany. They failed to score a single pomt while they were in the midst of the slump. Juniata had too much power in their offense and defense for the Titans to cope with, and walked over the Washabaugh- men, in the following encounter. The Titans displayed their best form in the final two games to save the season from complete disaster. They put on their best performance of the year while trouncing their closest rival. Grove City. In a benefit game West- minster closed the 1942 season with a victory over the Butler Cubs, district semi-pro standouts. Coach Grover C. Washabaugh had 30 candidates on hand during the entire season. Only 1 1 veterans return- ed from last year, but the locals were strengthened by a promising freshmen squad. Captain Ted Ossoff, Park Glass, Joe Mastro, Charles Horton. Ed Hamilton, Clyde Hopkins, Dick Newton, Bill Scheid, Jack Hudson, Dave Reed, and Fred Faull were the returning lettermen. The starting lineup consisted of ten veterans and two newcomers. Captain Ted Osso ff and Ray Mattocks. Ell- wood City freshman, held down the end posts; Horton and Reed were the tackles; while freshman Schumm and Hudson opened at the guard posts. Park Glass took care of the center duties. Joe Mastro, Dick Newton, Ed Hamilton, and Clyde Hopkins rounded out the back- held. 47 HAMII TON SI II ' I ' I RV ROCK GAME Scoring on siistamed drives in every quarter but the second, the Westminster Titans opened their grid season with an impressive 20-0 win over the Edinboro Red Raiders. Sparked by the brilliant running of Mickey McDaniels and Bill Scheid, reserve backs, the Blue and White grid- ders marched 26, 60, and 80 yards for their scores. West- minster dominated the play throughout, gaining 278 yards by rushing to 128 for Hdinboro, and compiling 15 first downs to the loser ' s eight. McDaniels started the Titans on their first goalward drive late in the first period when he caught one of Shell- enberger ' s punts on the midfield stripe and raced back 24 yards before he was brought down. After chalking up two first downs, Newton scored from the six yard line and OssofF converted to make the score 7-0. As soon as the second half was underway, the locals fiell . . . put on the pressure and steamrolled 60 yards in six plays to widen the margin 13-0. Mastro was the spearhead in this drive, completing three passes and sharing in the ball carrying. Hopkins went over from the six yard line and Ossoff again place-kicked for the extra point. The Titan reserves were responsible for the final touchdown at the beginning of the last period, putting on an eighty yard sustained drive. EvanofT went over from the two yard mark and Ossoff s placement kick went wide. Slippery Rock ' s hard charging Green and White grid- men invaded Westminster ' s gridiron the following Satur- day and humbled the Titans. 10-0. A perfect placekick from the 24-yard line by Delonga, Mt. Lebanon end. put the Teachers in the lead with only three minutes gone in the first quarter. Midway in the second quarter the visitors covered 54 TUBBV HOKION GROVE CITY GAME PARK GLASS M HI ID SI AKKINCj A1 C,K0 1 (.M ilmcjA Aaam . . . yards in six plays to turther their lead. The touchdown play was a Cottrell to Menoher pass that netted 27 yards. Westminster chalked up 1 1 first downs to 7 for the Rock- ets, and gained 216 yards by rushing to the Teachers ' 198. A second half blitzkrieg put on by a powerful Skibo offense turned an evenly matched contest into a Tartan rout with the Titans succumbing at Taggart Stadium, 26-0. It squared the Plaid-Titan ri ' alry at one game apiece. After scoring on a 50-yard sustained drive late in the opening period, the visitors went on a touchdown spree to score three additional ones in a nightmarish fourth quar- ter. Evidence of Carnegie Tech superiority can be gath- ered in the number of first downs; 18 for the visitors to four for the Titans. Byers climaxed a 50-yard sustained drive by going over from the two for the first score. In seven plays the Tartans traveled 43 yards for their second score in the final period. Philipchuk cracked center from the three to go over. The Tartans next scoring drive, coming late in the quarter, carried 69 yards. Byers was the big gun in the attack and hit scoring territory for the second time that afternoon. On the final play of the game, Duncan Brown, third string halfback, intercepted Fred Hamilton ' s pass on Westminster ' s 44, and eluded the Titan secondary to cross the goal line standing up. McLaughlin made both con- versions by placekick. Playing the brand of ball that had netted them two previous setbacks the Westminster Titans failed to im- press a large Homecoming crowd, being held to a 0-0 draw by an underdog Hiram eleven. The Blue and White gridders led in first downs, 1 1 to 7 and outrushed the visitors, 156 yards to 134, but the Ohioans came the ON THE DEFENSE AGAINST HIRAM DAVE REED 950 POUNDS OF PEP! closest to breaking up the ball game threatening in every period but the second. Dick Newton was knocked out in the last period and had to be carried off the field, while Ted OssofF suffered a hip injury that put him out of the game. In the last five minutes of play the locals came to life and marched 47 yards from their own 3 3 to the Terrier 20. However Hopkin ' s attempted dropkick was blocked. The Titans lost their third game in five starts, when Geneva handed them a 26-0 trouncing. The Covies out- gained the Washabaughmen in every department. They were ahead in first downs, 10 to 8, and outrushed West- minister, 136 yards to 25. An aerial attack netted the Genevans 125 yards to 53 for the locals. A stubborn Titan eleven outplayed the Covies in the opening period but two costly breaks started the Coven- anters on their rout in the second period. A blocked kick and intercepted pass gave the Hubbardmen their first two scores. In the final period, a pass was deflected by a Titan back into StefFler ' s hand for another fluke touch- down. Endmg their home season before a large Dads Day crowd, the locals returned to winning form with a 13-7 verdict over the Bethany Bisons. The Titans were ahead in first downs, 13 to 5, and led in yards gained by rushing with 130 yards to 34 for the visitors. Newton scored the first touchdown by cracking over from the 1-yard line after the Titans had carried from midfield. In the third period after Newton had inter- cepted a pass, Mastro passed 17 yards to Mattocks for the score. Newton converted. A stubborn Blue and White forward wall stalled Juni- ata ' s powerful grid machine during the first half, but was trampled over in the second period as the Indians scored four touchdowns to win easily, 28-0.

A fumble led to the first score, and then Leeper came through with the best play of the day to scamper 77 yards for the second score. A 30-yard pass and another inter- cepted Titan pass completed the scoring. Westminster threatened twice in the opening period, but the attacks bogged down. Apparently the Titans got tired of being on the de- fense most of the time, and rebelled against Grove City. The local gridders had sweet revenge for last year ' s hu- miliating defeat with a convincing 28-14 conquest. The victors battered the Crimson line for 23 first downs and 342 yards by rushing. Grove City ' s running attack was bottled up by the opposing forward wall, and an afternoon ' s work netted them minus five yards by rushing. Sparked by the running of Bill Scheid an d Phil Myers, halfback mates, Westminster moved 22 and 40 yards for their first two tallies. Newton plunged over for both touchdowns. A pass by Mastro was deflected into the waiting hands of Ted Ossoff for the third Titan score. Scheid climaxed the final Titan drive of 50 yards by driving off tackle from the 1 1. OssofF converted twice by placement. The Titans were also awarded a safety when Olmes was caught behind his own goal line, trying to pass. In a post season benefit game on Armistice Day the Washabaughmen defeated the semi-pro Butler Cubs, 18-13. Trailing 6-0 in the early minutes of play, the local eleven pushed across three touchdowns in the second period. They drove 70 yards to tie the score, with Newton plung- ing over from the 3. The following kickofF was recovered by EvanofT on the Butler 25 which set up another scoring opportunity. Myers hit tackle for  ight yards and the score. The final touchdown came late in the period when OssofT inter- cepted a pass on the Butler 45 and scampered over to clinch matters for the Titans. JH Aciixm . . •V( ' FORMATION — COI I FGF BAND Winding up their season with twelve victories and seven losses, the Westminster Towering Titans surprised the cage experts. When the sea- son got underway Westniinster had only experi- enced men in Captain Fred Miller, Charles Gold- blum, and Frank O ' Hara. Until the Army called out keyinen Goldblum, and Don Heddleston, sensational freshman from East Liverpool, and the top reserves. Bob Dierken and Don Bennett, the Titans were the hottest team in the district enjoying a victory streak of seven straight games. The Titan cagers were an unpredictable lot. Throughout the season they were full of mis- chief and surprises, beating such notable qum- tets as Duquesne, Carnegie Tech, and Pitt twice, and then turning around to lose to Bethany, Al- legheny, and Geneva over whom they had been favored. When the season opened the starting five con- sisted of seniors Miller, Ted OssofF, and Frank O ' Hara; sophomore Charles Goldblum, and freshman Don Fieddleston. Six freshmen, Chris Wagner, Tom Jones, Tom Weeter, Chuck Elgin, Jim Salsgiver, and Heddleston were included on the roster. The remaining members were Jim Barron, Don Bennett, Bob Deirken, Jim Bennett, Dick Dimmire, and Miles Reznik.

He finished the year with 204 points. Captain Fred Miller took run- ner-up honors with 163 points. Before he left for the Army Air Corps, Charles Goldblum had amassed 151 markers in 12 engagements for the best average per game. The local cagers got off on the wrong foot at the beginning of the year, losing the opener to an underdog Allegheny quintet, 45-43. The battle was nip-and-tuck with the Gators coming from be- hind m the final minute of play to nose out the Titans. Coach Washabaugh ' s proteges were still unimpressive in the second game, barely winning over Bethany, 42-40. Making preparations for the big attraction with Duquesne, the Titans had an easy time with Hiram, trouncmg the Terriers, 60-28. A perfect four-year home record was shattered when the Duquesne Dukes left New Wilmington with a 38-36 triumph under their belts. Titan fans were blackedout twice that night. The Blue and White cagers held the upper hand until that time. Leading at half time 17-14 they have the Daviesmen on the run up to the blackout. With seven minutes remaining and the Top to BotIi iii: in.CilN. ViAGNlR. li. RRON. Mi en lorals ahead, 36-32 a statewide diinout halted pro- ceedings. The Hilltoppers came from behind in the dying moments to forge in the lead, while the Titans failed to score a single point. Charles Goldblum highlighted the scoring parade with fourteen points, followed by Billy Canterna, Du- quesne forward, with twelve. Westminster had one more bad game in their system and were defeated by the Carnegie Tech Tartans in Pittsburgh, 46-38. The Tartans out- classed the Titans, using speed and fast breaks to slip through the local defense time and time again. Snapping out of the slump, the Washabaugh- men climbed into third place in the district by coppmg seven straight wms. West Liberty was first on the list losing to the Titans, 54-48. O ' Hara was the big gun in the attack, making fif- teen markers. With Goldblum scoring 21 points the Towering Titans handled the Geneva Covenanters con- vincingly, 55-42. Johnny Rayz kept a spark in the Covie attack with fifteen points, but the locals had on their finest scoring togs that night. Coach Carlson and his band of Pittmen made their initial appearance to New Wilmington but v ere rudely treated by the hosts. Their seven game winning streak went out the window as the Titans put on their best exhibition of the season to outplay the rinky-dinks in every department. Tiny O ' Hara was the chief troublemaker as he sank eight out of ten shots to chalk up 17 tallies. Staving off a determined last quarter rally by Juniata, Westminster was able to win their fourth straight game, 52-47. Trailing 45-30 midway in the final period, the Indians started climbing until they were three points behind with a minute of play remaining. Goldie had 1 3 tallies followed by Heddleston with I 1. Proving that their first win was no mistake the Blue and White cagers e.xtended their jinx over the Pitt Panthers with a hard fought 5 3-48 de- cision. Goldblum gave his home town fans a treat, making 17 points in a brilliant offensive show. In his last appearance before leaving for Army, Heddleston made 14 markers. Erie Coast Guard and Carnegie Tech were the next to feel the Titan axe, falling 61-40 and 56-42 respectively. Goldie, Dierken, and D. Bennett played their final games for the locals. In the surprise upset of the year Bethany put an end to the Titan winning streak with a 58-55 setback. Westminster closed their homeseason by topping the Allegheny Gators, 63-55, but lost on the road to Geneva, 70-57. The Titans went one better than Duquesne did in the first meeting by spoiling the Duke ' s perfect five-year victory string attained at home against district competition. Captain Miller headed the show, chalking up 15 tallies in the 44-39 triumph. In a rubber meeting Allegheny topped the locals, 72-66. Wash-JefF followed with an easy 54-35 victory to hand the Titans their seventh set- back. Westminster brought its season to a suc- cessful close with an easy 49-31 conquest over the Erie Coast Guard. The three seniors. Miller, Ossoff, and O ' Hara, colucluded their playing careers for the Blue and White. Left to right: JONES. WEETER. SALSGIVER, BENNETT.
