He retires this June after 14 years as president of Westminster College. i During his period in office, Dr. Galbreath has done much to increase district esteem of VVestminster. On campus he has popularized Sabbath evening chapel by his down-to-earth messages, extended our friendly I-iello policy, created good will between students, faculty, and visiting ASTP and Navy V-5 units, kept up the morale of hundreds of servicemen with whom he personally corresponded during the war.

JOHN REED SPICER, B. A., M. A., Ed. D. Coming to Westminster last fall as our first dean of the college and also as dean of men, Dr. John Reed Spicer has done an excellent job of making a post-war school out of what has been for a few years almost a girls, school. Graduating from Alfred University in Alfred, New York, with a B. A. degree in 1930, Dr. Spicer has also served there as dean before joining our faculty. His M. A. and Ed.D were both received from Columbia University. Acting as coordinator for returning veterans on campus, Dean Spicer has smoothed out such problems as overcrowded classes, housin facil't' ' g 1 ies, service credits, enrollment, G. I. Bill headaches, and a dozen similar troubles. With assist- ance next year from Dr. W. Harper McKnight who will be dean of men and college pastor, Dean Spicer will be able to come from beneath his load of duties andb b 1 ' ' ' ecome etter acqaainted with students who know him as the tall, distinguished looking man with a mind for action.

S., himself a vet-eran, became assistant to Dr. Swindler, instructing elementary physics classes and labs. Familiar sights around campus, espe- cially with the vets, are those little gray lab manuals and PHYSICS, by Stuart.

Dr. Cordray, Miss Cushman, Mr. Barbe ine 'nfs Art In the absence of Mr. Harold Brennan, professor of art and chairman of the departm-ent, Mr. Joseph Sheridan, B. A. , M. A., has capably taken over as assistant professor of aff. The sky-lighted lab on third Hoor science hall is well known to art majors as their lab, but to everyone it is the paint-, easle-, statue-inf-ested hangout of the art department and Mr, Sheridan. Known as Joseph to the world of oils and easles, he has studied under Hans Hofman, producing several canvases during this past year. Though not a surrealist, Mr. Sheridan gives th-e group their due as he maintains interest in all fields of art. Not a lab fiend, Mr. Sheridan also lectures in the fresh- man art survey courses.

Throughout the year Mr. Hetzl-er has also organized inter-frat, inter-class, and inter-club teams in basketball, volleyball and softball. 25 Public Relations The man behind the familiar baby buggy and the jovial grin, most any sunny afternoon on Quadrangle, is Mr. William A. Johns, M. S., Director of Public Relations and Industrial Placement. Although fondness for his grandson may be vying With that for Westminster itself, Mr. Johns, job is a never-ending one of 'isellingv Westminster to potential students and selling her graduates on car-eers once they've met graduation require- ments. Author of many a postcard received by prospective stu- dents, Mr. Johns' bright hello and amiable personality are easily a part of the Westminster we remember. A Mr. William A.

Glass Donald Haight Vice President Raymond Bower, President Westminster's Lost Generation, the class of '46, came into its own at last. A three day graduation celebration climaxed four years of meeting the boys, saying goodbye, and waiting-. We were here to see most of them go in '42 and '43, and we were here to see many of them return in '45 and '46. In those in-between years, We wel- comed the ASTP boys who came and left on those rare passenger trains in New Wilmington. The Navy Air Corps at Hillside was part of our life then too. In those days of the lost generation, the yellow brick building on Neshannock Avenue typifled the changing school. It was a private hotel our freshmen year, a service center for the army and navy when We were sophomores, and finally College hall-a fresh- men girls' dorm and later the barracks for returning ex-GPS. We lived on memories, and we stayed to see them begin to be fulfilled. We heard rumors of a student union for three years. This year our class led the Student Union War Memorial Drive, for those buddies of ours who did not come back and for those who did. , War days, fun days, work days-they made up our four years, and now they're gone-a memory all the more poignant because they were hard days and we weathered them. 3 2 n 0 , Seniors MARY ALSOP . .

Our number has dwindled since that fall of '43 when we ar- rivediat Westmins'ter as eager green frosh, but our spirit speaks for itself in the way our class has led campus activities. Juniors this year have been seen working' to meet the Argo, Holcad and Scrawl deadlines,iat student government meetings, leading cheers at bas- ketball games,'starring in Little Theatre productions and spending musical afternoons in the Conservatory. We captained the basket- ball' team and presided over Student Council. It has been a busy year, full of normal dances, fraternity house parties, and good times. Names that weive heard read in chapel for two years now belong to familiar faces on campus. It has been great welcoming the fellows back, the years of anxiety and loneliness have become mere shadows of the past, never to be forgotten. Dreaming of the student union war memorial we have worked so hard this year to make a reality, we move forward to take our place as the graduating class of 1947. 40 947 D A . .dwg X NN ' X . K .

Sweeney, Vice President, Betty Fair, Secretary. We sophomores certainly are lucky. We didn't think so last year. We just sat there While the upperclassmen reminisced about 'Qbefore the boys left and When the Navy was here,', and all our dreams of college life were blacked out. We had no memories of house parties, or football victories, or home coming days. Still high school, once exciting, seemed drab in comparison. It seemed We'd never see the day when there would be a two to one ratio in the opposite direction and sometimes one would have a date every night of the week. , Then one May morning we celebrated VE da later the Japanese surrender came. Thi present. y, and three months s year we could live in the Past and future dreams were forgotten as we began a real col- 1 Q ege experience. The same men returned but the atmosphere was h c anged. Education, quick and thorough, was in demand, We had to get in rhythm with the new tempo or be left behind. There was an increase in Work but there was one in our int erest, too, and soon we were in step to step right up to our junior year. 46 W. Abel W. Acheson J. Allen M. Anderson B. Ashbrook J.

How important we felt-until our first week' of college life was over. Then came freshmen hell week, or The secret society of the black stockings. We remember praising the upperclassmen, singing the 'iVictory Song unwillingly, and praying for rain. Finally, we appeared before the dreaded black court,', and were permitted to return to civilian clothes again. With the campus looking friendly once more, we chose our representatives to the student governing bodies. Margaret Brown, Bob Cheeseman and Charles Pitcher took chairs on Student Coun- cil, while Jean Bricker and Jean Johnson were elected to Senate. Dark-haired Claire McClure made a striking Ideal Freshman for the Holcad, and Jack Ardolino gave a smooth performance as Romeo in the Little Theatre's production of uRomeo and Julietf, Cur own private parties were sponsored by the Freshmen Council prexied by Margaret Scull. Later, we were whirled into sorority and frat rushing, were permitted to enter the forbidden houses, and half of us were soon sporting little pledge pins. Second semester found our numbers enlarged by many ex-servicemen, and our Brown hall dining room reconverted into a GI cafeteria. Yes, we were just frosh,', but it all adds up to this-We loved it. 52 1 First Row: M. Baldwin, R. Beard, B. Bailey, M. Bailey, B. Barrett, B. Berkholz, R. Ban. Second Row: J. Anderson, J.

Westminster's President For 14 Years The familiar figure you,ve seen hanging his hat and coat on the., tree outside his office door . . . stopping to chat outside Old Main's door . . . always that friendly Good Morning or I'lello that so typified the friendliness of the entire campus. His office a busy place . . . the big desk piled high with letters . . . and several from ex-students serv- ing Uncle Sam that he answered personally . . . pictured here with Mr. Russell Weller welcoming Mr. Robert Maxwell to Westminster in the posi- tion of alumni secretary. 64 x Here Prexy s caught in the act with Dean of Women, Miss Stevenson, drying dishes at Mack Lodge. Always one to enter into the spirit of the occasion from basketball games to Sabbath chapel services Prexy will be remembered for his genuine interest in people and their activities as unforvet- able as his 14 years of service - Here with his horse, Major, 'Prexy's interests are those of a busy man whose relaxation came only when time allowed. Leaving Westminster now for his farm, his day will still be a busy one, his calendar a full one. . With faculty and student' alike, Prexy was a friend. In 14 years of Westminster he has met and conquered problems with the sure hand of a per- son able to depend upon his colleagues-this leadership a quality entrenched in his service. W ., His boondoclcers, GI brogans, and clodhoppers are put aside for cleated football shoes and sneakers. He 110 longer shoulders a gun, but carries the pigskin or dribbles down the basket- ball Hoor. His split-second action be- hind the gun controls the drive of a golf-ball instead. The drill field is ex- changed for the sports arena as the veteran returns. V 93f? 1 V b ' I ' 41-. 'P eY3f7?T'fFf5 Y A4 ww X x, 5 3, Q, . , 2527- ' ' N T x ff' E 1 'fffT? 49 4 as-ix. - ff - QQQQQL.

From what looked to be a none-too- bright outlook in early October, it turned into a good one, the won-lost record was better than most every one hoped for, and at times during the year the Titans showed a brand of ball that nearly put them into the New York post season tourna- ments. , Despite the fact that the Titans finished be- hind West Virginia in the district race, the Grov- ermen run up an impressive mark, and were bound for New York until the upset defeat at the hands of Geneva. Coach had little to work with when the first game came up. Akron Goodyear, with Don Ben- nett in their lineup were first to test the Titans. Washabaugh started a quartet of lettermen and Coach Grover C. Washabaugh Titan Basketball 1945-1946 Jay Cochran, lone freshman to show much pro- gress in the early practice trials. Don Heddleston and Captain Chris Wagner were at the forwards. Big Fred Paine was placed on the pivot, with Dean Nelson and Cochran at the guards. Substitute forward Wayne Harpold pulled the game out of the fire late in the fourth per- iod when he dropped through four straight field goals. In the return engagement, the Rubber team gained revenge 50-36. Fred Paine came clown with the Hu on the eve of the season's collegiate opener with Juniata. As so often happens, an unheralded freshman was sent to the center post. Six foot-four inch Chester Dembinski filled Paine's shoes and managed to hang on to the center post for the remainder of the semester. Dembinski finished the season as the team's highest scorer. For the third straight year, the Titans took a licking at the hands of Oklahoma A. 8K M. and seven foot Bob Kurland. Several district fans journeyed to Buffalo for the annual battle only to see the Blue and White come out on the short end of a 44-23 count. Coach Washabaugh continued to search for his best workable combination, and the Titans looked sloppy while failing to impress the Pitts- burgh sporting fraternity in defeating Carnegie Tech in Pittsburgh 56-46. Dembinski continued to prove that the first night had been no fluke in playing a bang-up game. Shortly after Christmas, the Titans were handed their second loss at Akron, the University of Akron Zippers taking the game 66-51. Coach moved Donny I-Ieddleston back at guard, moved Diz Nelson to forward with Wagner, Paine, and Dembinski completing the lineup. The new system worked to Washabaugh's satisfaction. The Blue Wave looked impressive in losing to the fast moving Zippers on their home court. This year's annual eastern invasion included Madison Square Garden after a year's absence, and the Titans recommended themselves for an- other invitation by swamping Sr, Francis 76-48, On the road home, the Grovermen added Olmsted ggripg' Air Field to the right side of the ledger . With last year's thrilling 72-68 win still fresh in the minds of a few of the boys, the team came fContinucd on Page 701k SEASON Akron Goodyear .... Akron Goodyear .. Juniata College ......

G The visitors grabbed an early leflda but the Washabaugh machine was quick to galfl and l101C1 a commanding margin throughout the game. When the final whistle blew, the Covenanters were on the short end of a 52-44 score. The loss put Geneva out of the district race, and brought the Titans back into the chase as the surprise team. ' Pointing toward their meeting with the the better record of the Panthers giving them the edge. The Pitts went ahead by a sizable margin in the second period after a close first quarter. The Titans brought their followers back to their feet in the third and the early fourth quarter by closing the gap and moving ahead for a few moments. The loss of Dembinski on fouls late in the final period was the deciding factor, and with no one to fight the brilliant Hank Zeller on the boards, the Titans were pushed into the three slot behind the Panthers.

University of Pittsburgh in Farrell, the Titans polished off Bethany College 59-41 on the banks of Buffalo Creek. This was followed by win num- ber eight over Slippery Rock at the Westminster gym 71-38. Donny Heddleston held the Rockets high scoring Billy Biletnikoff to seven points in a great game of cat and mouse. Coming into the Panther game, both teams were pointing to the number two Spot in the dis- tric race behind West Virginia. It was considered a toss-up on the neutral Farrell High floor with after a- few exciting moments in the first quarter, the Titans pulled away to win as they pleased. An easy 64-46 win over Gannon College of Erie brought to an end the first half of the sched- ule. It was the last game for freshman Jay Coch- ran who left later for the service first game for Bill lVlcLhinney, Tom Jones and 9 Stan Wasik, all returned servicemen and former Titan lettermen. With the three new stars in the linen , along with several other outstanding new playe s, gave . It was also the 70 the Titans a new lease on life and Akron's Zip- pers were to be the first to taste the fruits of the new order. In the best played game of the year on the local hardwood, the Titans copped a two- point 55-53 win. Zipper followers complained bit- terly about playing in the Titan band box, but their feelings lost steam when they were taken to the cleaners by several of their Ohio neighbors. The Titans gave their best exhibition of the year while smothering Juniata at Huntington 74- 39. The Grovermen could do no wrong that eve- ning with Don Heddleston looking very good scoring 20 points. Bethany came to the Titan lair a week later, and nearly scored the season's outstanding upset when they lost to the Titans in the final 12 sec- onds 47-46. The results of the Bethany game came to light in the Pitt game at Pittsburgh where the Blue and White whipped the Panther and dis- placed the Jungle Cats in the district standings as runnerups to West Virginia. The Titans tied up Hank Zeller, but the Pitt star still managed to be the most outstanding player on the Hoor. The Westminster team moved past Carnegie Tech for a second time 67-45. Coming into the Geneva contest at Beaver Falls, Coach Washa- baugh was reported to have a bid to the New York tournament in his pocket, conditional to the Titans winning their last two games. But Gen- eva smashed the hopes for a trip to the big city 65-60. A final period attempt by the Blue Wave to salvage the game proved futile, even after the loss of the Covies scoring ace Dave Podbielski for fighting. Strictly anti-climax, Westminster wound up the season by polishing off the fast moving Slip- pery Rock Teachers. The Rockets had not lost a game since their game here, and owned a 13-game winning streak. The Titans won handily 77-49. The Westminster outlook for the next season could only look bright as Washabaugh lost but two seniors, Chris Wagner and Stan Wasik. The Titan coach will have a starting team from this season back next winter with prospects of several stars of the past few years returning from the service. Chester Dembinski finished the season as in- dividual high scorer. The Freshman tallied 184 points, most of them in the first half of the sea- son. After the return of the veteran Stan Wasik, Dembinski was used more in a utility role. Finish- ing only a point behind Dembinski was Don Hed- dleston. The clever ball handler found himself at ease in the backcourt and developed into a defi- nite scoring threat near the season's end. Fred Paine, big junior guard was a third team all-state selection.

WAA started its school year by welcoming freshmen at a breakfast hike. Be- cause the weather was unsuitable, the usual hockey games were cancelled. Freshmen started collecting their one hundred points for membership at Tues- day and Friday afternoon volleyball games. An intersorority contest proved that h T t e U'S were the volleyball champs. During the second semester WAA sponsored a program of basketball which ' l d d ' penny carnival and swimming meet were enjoyed by the entire college. i inc u e an intersorority tournament.

Last year's Oscar winner, Bob Alter, naturally assumed the Scotch dialect of the conceited, bemedaled soldier unwittingly melting to the affections of a meek, unmarried Scotch woman who longed to have a soldier son. Freshman' find Olita Kirk played the sweet old Mrs, Dowey in this excellent performance of J. M. Barrie's The Old Lady Shows Her Medals. Joseph Alter, Bob's brother, returned to the Little Theatre after three year's absence to play A. A. Milne's His Majesty the King of The Ugly Duckling. Joe was supported by veteran actor, Karl Moll playing the Chancellor, Amelia Duff, the Queen, fresh- man Sue Toby, the Princess who turned beautiful on her wedding day, the lucky Prince, James Oravetz, Dulcibella, the impetuous lady-in-waiting, Shirley McKinney, and Carlo, valet to the Prince, Tom Danner. Camille, a difficult part for even an experienced player, was well portrayed by Helen Finlay. Assisting Helen's portrayal of Charles George's tragic, penniless French aristocrat were Nancy Lewis, Helen Spenser, Betty Womer and Mildred Stoetzer as fellow-members of the waning French aristocracy. Spring production got underway with the presentation of Kind Lady, a three-act drama directed by Dr. Cordray. Edward Chodorov's play is unwound by the clever scheming of cheap, ruth- less Henry Abbott, played by Bill Horean, who exploits the home of Mary Herries, wealthy English spinster, with Helen Finlay and Mary Ellen Stewart double cast in the role.

One of the stagehands was caught unaware when the curtain opened, and spent the rest of the scene Hat on the platform at Juliet's feet. Another tense moment came when the record player for the ball scene refused to play.

Cameron, the band is a must for basketball games and pre-commencement concerts. Headed by twirler Lu More- land, the band can be counted on for faithful renditions of the Titan victory song while our traditional Westminster hymn has a certain majestic air about it when presented by the band. Neighbors to the conserv and passers-by are used to the back room antics of the practicers in their weekly sessions. Band members themselves can remember the ASTP retreats on the Quadrangle while students look back on those few months when the band played a big part in the military air on campus. Promising a bigger and better band with next year's increased enrollment, we look forward to W i formations on the football field and strutting majorettes when Westminster once more welcomes the grid season after a three year lapse without a Titan football team. The orchestra, too, can be accredited with much of the music heard drifting from conserv's back room. Also under Professor Cameron's direction, the orchestra dismembered itself during the spring months due to an increasingly heavy schedule in other phases of the music department.

Since that day over 275 men have worn its badge on the campus. War years found our number reduced, but 1945-1946 has meant the beginning of post-war fraternity and the returning members, now war veterans, have strengthened the- fraternity to pre- war levels.

The annual semi-formal pledge reception dinner-dance was held at the Castleton Hotel and the pantomime program by the pledge class will long be remem- bered. The Christmas formal at the William Penn Hotel in Pittsburgh showed the real post-war spirit and many similar events are planned for the future.

Shaffer house, now the Beta Sigs, own because of that incom- parable Beta Sig touch in its rooms and on its trimmings, must have chuckled as its walls and windows viewed Betas at their come- as-you-are party in ridiculously real apparel. At Christmas it beamed as its living room sparkled with a blue- lighted Christmas tree, silver with icicles, as its doorways were wreathed in pine and holly, and its chandeliers hinted mistletoe. We know we saw its wise nod of approval as we contributed to Westminster's Student Union, celebrated our traditional found- ers' day, gave rush parties, planned our inter-sorority party and a spring all-college party, l'prexy'd YWCA, Kappa Delta Pi, Alpha Iota, Christian Endeavor, and Theta Gamma Mu, and heard the wedding vows of Betty Smith and alum Pat Taylor.
