I VOLUME ONE HUNDRED y enienarian oj a aJJale raaihon 1841-1941 Just one hundred years ago the first small four- page edition of the Yale Banner appeared as a protest against the barbarity of firemen and the injustice of New Haven petty court decisions. The protest stemmed from a fight which occurred between the firemen of New Haven and some Yale students on the New Haven Green. The Banner was introduced into an atmos- phere which might seem comfortable but somewhat primitive to the Yale student of the Twentieth Century. The Yalensian of 1841 had few con- veniences. When cold he stoked his coal or wood stove, when he read it was by the dim and flickering light of a whale oil, camphor oil, or kerosene lamp, and when thirsty he went to the college pump for water. The rooms of some of the buildings of the Old Brick Row were already old and musty, all of the streets of New Haven were but dirt roads, and the only transpor- tation existent within the town was by horse and buggy. For long distance travel there was the railroad, just recently built and inefficient. Also the THE FIRST EDITION XI AT THE COLLEGE PUMP 1845 stagecoach. Actually New Haven was an isolated village, and Yale was a small but growing College. By 1 841 Yale was already 140 years old, and the undergraduate inherited much from previous tradition. The two great Literary Societies (Linonia and Brothers in Unity), Phi Beta Kappa, Skull and Bones, Alpha Delta Phi, Psi Upsilon, Kappa Sigma Theta, Kappa Sigma Epsilon, the Old Yale Fence, the Yale Literary Magazine, and Chi Delta Theta were all part of his heritage. He studied Greek, Latin, Mathematics, Grammar, Geography, Physics, Hebrew or Modern Languages, Logic, Rhetoric, Philosophy, American Law, Political Economy, and Theology. The opportunity of taking a few elective courses in the last term of both the Junior and Senior years had already been inaugurated. There were activities other than studies, however. The Yale man of 1841 enjoyed the Fence on the corner of College and Chapel Streets, he participated in hazing and in rushes , and he attended both morning and evening compulsory chapel on weekdays plus three required services on Sunday. If popular he was asked to join a secret society in each of his four under- graduate years, and if a scholar he was inducted into Phi Beta Kappa. Bullyism and the College Bully had just disappeared from the Yale Tra- dition, but there are indications that the Burial of Euclid , an annual occasion in Sophomore year to commemorate the completion of study of that great mathematician ' s works, may have been celebrated at this early date. Athletics were practically unknown, although the Freshmen and Sophomores each year scrambled on the Green in what was known as football. Meals were taken in either Commons or in one of the numerous eating clubs, and walking and ice-skating seem to have been two chief ways of getting exercise. The first traces of informal boating were to appear in the year 1843, and this sport was soon popular. In 1842 Commons was abandoned, and all the students began dining in eating clubs. In the same year a second Senior society, Scroll and Key, was established. In after years there followed a veritable flood of secret societies, in each of the four under- graduate years, but most of these organizations were short-lived and XII ' football as played about 1850 few survived the century. By 1845 student enroll- ment in Yale College in- cluded 424 undergraduates, of whom only 195 lived in College dormitories. The College was already facing a perplexing dormitory prob- lem. By the 1840 ' s Yale was in reality a University, but did not officially adopt the title, University, until 1887. The Thanksgiving Jubilee and Biennial Jubilee , two annual celebrations, are believed to have started in the 1840 ' s, but it is definitely known that the Wooden Spoon Exhi- bition first began in 1846, and the accompanying Concert shortly after- wards. Then in 1850 was held the first Freshman Pow-Wow , to celebrate having gotten through Freshman year. By 1852 informal boating had developed into a competitive form of athletics, and Yale ' s first intercollegiate crew race took place in that year. At the same time the College was expanding physi- cally with occasional new build- ings, and Alumni Hall was occupied in 1853. Town and Gown troubles flared up in 1854 and developed into a bloody riot, in which Pat CNeil, a towny, was stabbed to death. So unsettled was the relationship between Yalensians and New Haveners that the carrying of pistols by the stu- dents became commonplace. When in 1858 another battle ensued, this time between a group of students who ate together in an eating club known as the Crocodiles and a mob of firemen, one of the firemen was shot and died several days later. In the meantime a new course had been introduced into the curricu- lum. It was known as Home Gymnastics , and was taught by Pro- fessor Charles Langdon; this marks the beginning of Yale ' s effort to PRESENTING THE WOODEN SPOON ABOUT 1855 XIII TEARING DOWN CONFEDERATE FLAG 1 86 1 impart physical education to its students. The old game of football , though, was abolished in 1857, and Yale ' s first Gymnasium (equipped with tub baths in twelve bathing rooms) was not completed until 1859. Also in 1859 the first trend away from daily com- pulsory religion appeared in the doing away with required attendance at evening prayers. By i860 Yale ' s Library had grown to include a total of 253,000 books. Although made part of the Department of Philosophy and the Arts in 1854, it was not until 1861 that the Yale Scientific School was recognized as a separate department of the College, and in the year i860 there were only twenty-five undergraduates in the Scientific School. In 1 861 the first Ph.D. degree ever given in America was bestowed by Yale. The Civil War was a bit disrupting to the undergraduates, but the most violent act committed in the Yale community during the war years was simply the placing by some Southern sympathizers of the white Palmetto flag of South Carolina on the west tower of Alumni Hall early one morning in 1861. The last Burial of Euclid was held in 1861, and the Freshman Pow-Wow was given up in 1862. In 1865 Biennial examinations were replaced by annual ones, and the Biennial Jubilee yielded to the annual Freshman Dinner . In this same year the Yale Pot-Pourri, a competitor of the Banner, was estab- lished, and the great sport of baseball was beginning to assume importance. Commons was re-established in the following year, only to be abandoned once more shortly afterwards. Also in 1866 the Yale Courant was established, as was the School of Fine Arts. Athletics entered the Yale scene with more frequency in the late 1860 ' s; football reappeared, gymnastics became popular, and the very first beginnings of track e™ T ™.„ „ ATT , „ in the form of foot-racing made an FIREMEN-STUDENT BATTLE ° of 1858 appearance. At the same time XIV the velocipede craze swept into Yale, as it did throughout the rest of the country. By 1869 the student enrollment in Yale College had increased by over one hundred, but the dormitory problem remained unsolved. Of the 539 undergraduates only 268 lived within one of the Colleges as dormi- tories were called even in those early days. Later they became known as Halls. Two old traditions disappeared from the Yale environment in 1870. Both Linonia and Brothers in Unity, along with their Statement of Facts , passed out of existence, and the Wooden Spoon Exhibition and Concert were in the same year abolished by vote of the Junior Class. The idea of a dance at this time of the year was not abandoned, however, nor was the old tradition in modified form of the Wooden Spoon presentation. Both lingered on. The 1870 ' s saw the decline of hazing and near-disappearance of the old banger and beaver rushes. One step further from the jurisdiction of the State of Connecticut was achieved in 1871 when the General As- sembly of Connecticut passed an Act consent- ing to the substitution of six graduates, elected by their fellow-graduates, of the College for the six senior senators of the State in the membership of the Yale Corporation. The College Library continued to increase in size its collection of books, and in 1871-72 it received both the Linonia and the Brothers libraries. In 1872 the Yale Record was founded, and four years later in 1878 the Yale Daily News appeared for the first time. An advance was made in 1876, when nearly one-half the subjects of a student ' s last two years became elective, and in the same year compulsory services began to be held in the new Battell Chapel every morning. In the 1870 ' s the trend away from required chapel continued, when the Sunday afternoon services were made voluntary and finally disappeared entirely. A stimulus to athletics was the construction in 1882 of the Yale Field. Football and baseball games began to be played there, and undergraduate interest heightened considerably. Victories were all-important, and a defeat brought tears. Two years later in 1884 a tremendous leap was made in the realm of elective subjects, and one-half of the courses in Junior year and four-fifths of the Senior year subjects were selected by the stu- VELOCIPEDES IN 187O XV VOLUNTARY RELIGION ACCELERATED WITH FOUNDING OF DWIGHT HALL IN l886 dents. It was in 1886 that the Yale student ' s voluntary religious activities were greatly accelerated by the founding of Dwight Hall. A number of new buildings were erected in the 1880 ' s and 1890 ' s, but a heavy loss to Yale tradition was suffered in 1888 when the Old Yale Fence was torn down. Shortly afterwards a second Yale Fence was built within the campus, and for a number of years, this, with its annual Fence Orations , took the place of the old Fence to a certain extent. Yale ' s social struc- ture received a blow in 1890 when the last of the Freshman secret societies departed from the com- munity, and since then there has never been a society of that type. After the death of the first-year societies, an annual celebration, the Omega Lambda Chi , sprang up, only to disappear in the 1900 ' s. In 1 89 1 the Yale Alumni Weekly was established, and in the following year Commons once more reap- peared and a new Gymnasium was constructed. Near the close of the nineteenth century, the Old Brick Row was rapidly being torn down, and many new buildings appeared. No longer was the College enclosed within a single block of New Haven ' s munici- pality. Architecturally, the University had now branched out in many directions from the Old Campus. In addition, one of the most amazing transformations was the gradual increase in the size of the undergraduate body in Yale College as the years sped by. In the thirty years prior to 1900 the Sheffield Scien- tific School students themselves had more than doubled in numbers. It was in 1894 that a new publication, the Yale Scientific Monthly, appeared on the campus, and a little over two decades later the old Yale Courant withdrew from the scene. Yale broadened out still more as a University; THE SECOND YALE FENCE- ABOUT 1895 XVI DEATH OF THE SOPHOMORE SOCIETIES I90I the School of Music was founded in 1894, the School of Forestry in 1900, and the School of Nursing in 1923. At the turn of the century George Joseph Hannibal, L. W. Silliman, Es- quire was the favorite campus char- acter, only very little hazing remained, and rushes had degener- ated into comparatively gentle scram- bles. The annual wrestling matches between the Freshmen and Sophomores took place each year, and although there was a Commons , most of the undergraduates ate in eating joints. Although there was plumbing, the shower bath had not yet appeared, and although there were street cars they were still drawn by horses. Gas light and heat had, however, added to the conveniences of that era. A second transformation of Yale ' s social structure occurred in 1901 with the disappearance of the last of the Sophomore secret societies. After the World War of 1914-19, Town and Gown relations once more suffered a relapse, and there was much serious disorder. In 1920 a revo- lutionary change shook the foundations of Yale tradition, with the advent of the Common Freshman Year. No longer was the Sheffield Scientific School course to consist of merely three years. Both Scientific School and Academic students would study together for one year before determining in which school they wished to register for the remaining three years. As a result of this transformation a higher scholastic average, a lower scho- lastic mortality rate, and improved training were attained. Almost all courses were elective now, with the exception of several in Freshman year. But it was in the 1920 ' s that Commons became compulsory for all first- year men, whereas it had at one time been a voluntary institution, and in the same decade the second Yale Fence lost whatever significance it had achieved in the undergraduate mind. In 1922 the first University Budget Drive was instituted in the inter- est of charity. The University continued to grow, and finally in 1923 a limit was placed as to the number of students entering Yale both in the Freshman Class and in the graduate and professional Schools. It was in 1926 that compulsory daily chapel was finally voted out by the Faculty, after student balloting had condemned it, and since then attendence at religious services has been purely voluntary. In 1938 the first University Christian Conference was held and attracted wide interest, and in the same XVII COMMON FRESHMAN YEAR INSTITUTED IN 1920 year a social service organization, the Yale Community Council, was established. It seems that since 1920 there has always been in evidence a trend towards smaller classes, abler teachers, more individual responsibility, and a wider scope of courses. The Yale of 1941 has many more conveniences than the College of one hun- dred years previous. 1941 has inherited modern plumbing, steam heat, the electric light, the telephone, the radio, the moving picture, the electric trolley, and the auto- mobile! There are good roads and park- ways, and the New York, New Haven, and Hartford Railroad can transport the student to New York in an hour and twenty minutes. Not only is there running water in each dormitory; the undergraduate is now provided with the shower bath ! The recently built Payne Whitney Gymnasium is recognized as one of the best-equipped in the world. The undergraduate lives in a transformed Yale, a Yale of un- believable architectural splendor. The College plan had been adopted, and since the completion of Silliman College, there are ten of these resi- dential Colleges, each equipped with its own dining hall, library, common room, music room, and squash courts, and each presided over by a Master, assisted by members of the Faculty. Class unity has declined to a great extent, but the dormitory problem has largely been solved and virtually every undergraduate lives in a University-owned dormitory. The student can now pursue elec- tive studies throughout his last three years, and in two-fifths of his Freshman year courses. Moreover, the Yalensian is offered a selection of hundreds of studies from which to choose. The 1941 undergraduate, in addition, finds himself in an environment which houses innumerable complex, extra-curricular activities. The Old Brick Row has disappeared completely with the ex- ception of South Middle College, known XVIII RUSHING TO COMPULSORY MORNING CHAPEL IN 1925 ONE OF THE RESIDENTIAL COLLEGE UNITS 1941 as Connecticut Hall. Gone are the Burial of Euclid and the rest of the old traditions. Only a vestige of the Wooden Spoon ceremonies and Con- cert remains in the form of Junior Prom. Hazing and rushes are all but forgotten memories, and the undergraduate of 1941 merely has his Junior fraternities and Senior societies. A new tradition, Derby Day, is now part of Yale custom. Town and Gown relations in 1941 are comparatively calm and undisturbed. Riots still take place upon occasion, but they are more of the prankish type as compared with the barbaric variety of former years. As the decades passed, more and more types of competitive sports have appeared, until by 1941 the undergraduate is offered a huge variety of athletics. With the advent of the College plan, Intercollege Athletics has been organized, and with all the Freshmen housed together on the Old Campus, Intramural Athletics has begun. These plus intercollegiate competition through University, Jayvee, 150-pound, and Freshman teams offer all undergraduates the opportunity to participate in a wider variety of athletics, thus improving general physical health. Moreover, the Yale of 1941 has its Calcium Night, Tap Day, Fresh- man Rally, commercialized tutoring schools, University Health Depart- ment, its Bureau of Appointments to take care of the bursary men, Senior Prom, Freshman Prom, and Political Union. The University Library, housed in the magnificent Sterling Memorial Library building, contained at the end of June, 1940, a total of 2,219,642 volumes and is Yale ' s greatest single asset. As to the Banner, the earlier pamphlet form developed into more of a booklet in 1870, and grew rapidly in size each year thereafter. Intense competition existed between the Banner and the Yale Pot-Pourri, and finally in 1909 the two yearbooks were consolidated into one publication, a wide variety of athletics by 1941 sfej XIX which became known as the Yale Banner lz Pot-Pourri. In 1938 the latter part of the name was dropped. There can be no doubt that the period from 1841 to 1941 has been a century of continual and steady advancement for Yale in every sense of the word. Not only has an improved Banner evolved (adv.). Many out- standing transformations have taken place. Whereas the student of a century ago was offered less diversified curriculums, the Yalensian of today chooses from a much wider variety of courses, and at the same time concentrates more attention in one major field of study. By comparison with the earlier Yale, it looks as if the Faculty now approves of independ- ent specialized study. Moreover, a greater number of undergraduates are participating in some type of athletics than in the earlier period. In the 1941 Yale of larger Classes the undergraduate cannot possibly know all his classmates, as compared with the close-knit smaller Class of the nineteenth century. Although many old customs have passed from the campus environment, new traditions continue to arise. The intellectual life of the community has greatly improved. It must be concluded that the story of the last century in Yale ' s history has been a dynamic one. May Yale always continue to progress toward a fuller realization of the ideals and purposes for which it was founded. The way of the Future has need of those energies which brought the spirit of Yale into existence. There was then, there is now, and there always will be a place in the world for light and truth.

As you leave the University and join the family of alumni, these pages will serve to maintain the ties that bind you to the Yale of the past and to hold your interest in the Yale of the future. The life you have led here will, God willing, be that of many generations to come. For its maintenance we count upon the loyalty of those who, as under- graduates, drew profit from that life. Your inter- est in the University, whether critical or apprecia- tive, your active understanding, will greatly help Yale to fulfil her obligation to national service. Especially in these days of national and world crisis, Yale men, whether undergraduates or in the University, must repay to the nation some- thing of the privilege we have received through our special education. The redemption of that debt may be made through the devoted capitaliza- tion in the national interest of the technical or professional training which some have here been given. More generally there lies upon all of us as citizens the duty of utilizing our minds and re- pressing our emotions in the approach to the prob- lems that confront us.

Yale Budget Drive Run for the first time by a committee repre- senting the three upper classes and the fac- ulty, the Budget Drive was held the first week in October. The goal this year was again $22,000 and the generous contributions of graduate and undergraduate students and faculty once more put the drive over the top. Working for the com- mittee were 1 70 students who gave up their eve- nings for a good part of a week in order to solicit the entire campus. The money raised was distributed as follows : Dwight Hall — $7,500, Yale Hope Mission — $6,000, Yale-in-China — $4,000, War Relief — $1,500, New Haven Community Chest — $1,200, New Haven Boys ' Club Camp — $750, Yale-in- Labrador — $400. In deciding policy the Budget Committee was faced with two major problems — student reaction to Dwight Hall and the war. The first problem arose from widespread feeling against the amount of money Dwight Hall received last year from the Budget ; the Committee ' s answer was a cut of $1,500 in the allocation to that institution and also an attempt through good publicity to explain its actual functions. In connection with this, full- page articles on each charity contributed to were run in the ' Yale News in order to help the stu- dent to give wisely. The war with its countless personal tragedies could not be overlooked. Recog- nizing that a need greater than this country could ever meet existed all over Europe, it was decided to split donations to war relief agencies among the American Red Cross, the American Friends Association, and the World Student Service Fund and not to pool our contributions for one specific cause, thus in effect, aiding all the various needs in England and on the Continent. A noteworthy product of the Committee ' s col- lective mind was the Budget ' s new slogan, For God, for Country, and from Yale. 36 HONORS Phi Beta Kappa SCHOLASTIC HONOR SOCIETY John Beckwith Madden Charles Baker Finch James Lawrence Houghteling, Jr. William Alfred Barker, II Lewis Curtis Dahl President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer Member of Executive Committee Joseph John Finlev Clark Otis Love Guernsey, Jr. Richard Campau Kellogg CLASS OF 1940 (June Elections) John Gaffney McQuaid Byrne Fowler Martin Irving Harold Schlesinger, Jr. William Vincent Stone CLASS OF 1940 S.S.S.

Al Smith, Willkie Favor All ' Out Aid Plea of Churchill Connecticut and Local Bulletins Old School to be Razed Elderly Couple Burned Hopkins is in England t Reiults From Strike H. R. 1776 It is clear that the majority of the American peo- ple realize that England ' s defense is to our advan- tage. It always has been. Save for a few quacks or pro-Nazis, all groups, including the America First Committee, have admitted the desirablity of British victory. What is not clear is that the American people feel British victory to be so essential that we should commit ourselves to it even at the risk of a total war. A total war for which we are not prepared and which can be won — if at all — only by the total prostration of Europe or by an invasion of the Con- tinent. This issue was never put before the elec- torate. Now that it is at last before the people ' s rep- resentatives in the form of the Lease Lend bill we do not intend to pocket our convictions, private poll-takers notwithstand- ing. If democracy is worth fighting for it is certainly worth practicing without exception, certainly with- out embarrassment. To our way of thinking the pending measure is the most monstrous piece of legislation presented to the Congress in our time. Wiseacre historians of the future may find some irony in the fact that the bill which would recommit this nation to the wars of Europe is H. R. 1776. It accepts the principle that the safety of this nation is absolutely contingent upon the success of foreign powers. By this measure our heritage is cast back into the prejudices, hates, and imperial ambitions of the nations from whom we revolted one hundred and sixty-five years ago. If by some stretch of the imagination it is no t a measure of war relief, it sets us out on a limb for an objective which may not be attainable short of complete world warfare. Even were we not completely opposed to the prin- ciple of the bill as an end, we are unalterably op- posed to the means it utilizes. Even were not the President personally and publicly pledged to the establishment of four freedoms everywhere in the world — whether the world wants them or not, we would still object to the complete abdication by the congress of its power over the life and death destiny of the nation. Whether we agree with or trust the particular incumbent of the White House does not matter. We hold sacred the right of the American people to make the ultimate decisions of their national des- tiny through their many representatives in the Senate and House of Representatives. Regardless of the pressure of this tense hour and the psycho- logical stampede of the East towards war, we still hold: first, that the peace and sovereignty of the United States is the last best hope on earth, and second, that the decision as to when and to what extent these should be sacrificed must be left in the hands of the people ' s representatives. 5 They made the movies Edward Stephen Harkness A great man has died. We walk through the halls he built. We live in the comfort and luxury he pro- vided. We learn from men he endowed. Much of the graciousness and beauty of our life here is his creation. For all this men of Yale feel a gratitude beyond the power of articulation. In the death of this man Yale feels the loss of a son whose loyalty, devotion, and generosity knew no bounds. It is hard to believe that we are only one of the host of groups whose lives were made richer, hap- pier, and more pleasant by this man ' s benevolence. Countless places of learning, vast medical centers, great charitable organizations — scarcely any form of constructive human endeavor was without his aid. Here and abroad, thou- sands of institutions were brought into being, de- veloped, and enabled to survive by the grace of his philanthropy. Thanks to him. millions of his fel- low men came to know a fuller life. J It was given to him to realize the dream shared by all men : to see the world made better by the fact of his being. In great and thankful communities like this one the memory of Harkness can never be extinguished. But more than buildings, lectureships, medical centers, and charity funds survives. There is the story of a man. There have been men of greater wealth. There have been men of private station who knew greater power. During his lifetime greater commercial empires than his rose and toppled. In the great age of acquisition men everywhere were outdoing each other in elegant pretentiousness. Other men of fortune were protecting themselves against change by constructing great fortresses of wealth about them. Others, too, were buying power with their dollars, and courting popular favor by their largesse. He even lived to see wealth prose- cuted at the bar of public opinion. And with this came all the clamor about the rights of property. But this man stood out above the scramble. Not grandeur, not power, not rights, but duty was his all-consuming care. Modesty kept him from making known the extent of his gifts, he did not seek credit for his generosity. Unselfish trusteeship was his only calling. Not how to hold, hut how to justify his wealth was the concern of his life. In him privilege was justified by stewardship. In his life the world may read the lesson of a man with a rare apprecia- tion of the public obligation of private property. A world too often cynical may find inspiration in a man of whom it may be said with all sincerity: He loved his fellow men. 86 V Back Row: LeCompte, Healy, Stockman, Kahn. Front Row: Loree. Bull, McCorkle, Spring, Backus, The Yale Banner To the editors of the Yale Banner of 2041, Dear Friends, I am sure you must realize that we, back in 194.1, have no idea under the sun what your names will be. Consequently, the salutation, Friends. It is admittedly a bit unusual for an individual, especially a young man, to write a let- ter to future Yalensians who at the present mo- ment have not even as yet been born, and won ' t be for another eighty years. In fact, when you read this letter, the writer will probably have al- ready joined the ranks of the mysterious Here- after for several decades. But unusual as this letter is, we did want you to know that it has been a lot of fun to publish this Centennial edition of the Yale Banner. It has been an interesting task, occasionally tedious, sometimes a trifle discouraging, but always ex- citing. Since you will be faced with the publish- ing of the Bi-Centennial edition, a problem similar to ours but rendered doubly difficult, we can well recognize the problems you will face and some of the thoughts which will occur to you. Well, to us, to think that in this year of the Twentieth Century we are commemorating the one-hundredth anniversary of the first appearance of that little four-page pamphlet on November 5, 1841, seems incredible, almost unbelievable. The Banner has a hardy soul. It has proven that by surviving three wars, huge national disasters, and countless serious depressions. Whereas tens of other Yale publications have faded from the scene, the Banner has maintained its equilibrium. Gradually but steadily the oldest college an- nual has grown in size and has advanced along progressive lines. Limited as we were financially, we concluded that the most satisfactory method to celebrate the passing of the century was to sketch briefly the last hundred years in Yale ' s history. In our article on the century just completed, we have tried to decipher from the memorabilia available the atmosphere of Yale College as it was in 1841. To you editors who will be planning a Bi-Centen- nial edition one hundred years hence, we wish to say a few words more. Knowing how difficult it is to find material on the Yale of years previous, we hope that you will discover, in our article on the last century, some indication of the environ- ment as it is in the 1941 Yale. Several remarks at this point may provide more information as to the general attitude of the average Yale man of 194.1. Much emphasis is placed upon extra-cur- ricular activities — so much in fact that perhaps studies are neglected to too great an extent at the expense of outside interests. The residential Col- lege plan, now in force for seven years, is a de- sirable feature of the Twentieth Century Yale, but has not as yet achieved its goal as an efficient social unit within the University. Unfortunately, the undergraduate of 1941 seldom knows more than half of his fellow College-mates. Although, in our opinion, the College should be more suc- cessful socially, it should never, we feel, become so much the unit that it might detract from strong graduate loyalty to the larger all-embrac- ing Yale. In 1941 the nations of Europe are embraced in a fierce war, with England coura- geously battling against Hitler ' s Germany. Amer- ica, sympathetic to England, is seemingly each day drawing closer and closer to actual warfare. Most Yale undergraduates, it will interest you, editors of the future, are not as yet caught in any tide of war hysteria, are still skeptical of preva- lent war propaganda, and, for the most part, remain un- scathed from and unstirred by the efforts of warmongers. For the second successive year, we published in Novem- ber The Old Campus, the Tin I told them to cut 500 words From the frying fan into the fire Freshman yearbook, and cooperated with the Senior Class Book Committee, under the able leadership of Jim Jaffray, in the publishing of the Class Book. This has proven to be much more economical than separate printing. As seems to be customary the managing editor of the Banner did most of the work, and none could have done a more masterly and outstanding job than Bob Loree. As to our finances, sage, shrewd DeWitt Bull handled all debits and credits. The Junior Board departed from custom by performing in managerial capaci- ties, while the Soph- omore Board was also unusually pro- ficient in helping out in innumerable matters. It is with a great deal of sorrow that we yield to the 1942 board, but it is with few misgivings, for they are primed to edit and publish a great yearbook. We envy all you future editors who still have the pleasure of putting out editions of the Banner. May God speed you on your adventure. With kindest regards, Sincerely yours, John K. Spring.

The Yale Record WE came into the office back in the beginning of March, 1940 about Prom Time. The Office in those days had a gay, devil-may-care atmosphere. Even the heelers whistled as they slaved away turning out jeux d ' esprit and bons mots. We sipped cognacs late into the night dis- cussing the glorious days ahead. Ah, those lively soirees! What rapturous repartee, sparkle and brilliance! And the Owl looked down benignly while the Record became the Toast of the Town. It all seemed too good to be true. It was. All people were really after were our mint juleps, dispensed so neatly on Derby Day at Twin Mulberries on-the-York. They had been nice to us with reason. For the party was good. It had been arranged months in advance. Back in March in the Sanctum Sanctorum of Fox Foxorum a meeting was held. Preston and Cheney, leaders in loyal opposition, were finally won around to a pro-party stand of mint juleps, and all agreed. That is, everyone except Camp- bell, who hasn ' t attended a meeting since — nor that one, as a matter of fact. Don ' t tell anybody we ' re going to have a DERBY DAY PARTY! howled Cheney near an open window. Brewster, walking by outside, snorted, I suppose that ' s Off The Record. Robinson came back quick as a flash, The trou- ble with you, Brewster, is that you haven ' t any news that ' s fit to print! The day of the party arrived and the pTofanum valgus from the News building began to move in, its collective tongue hanging out of its collec- tive mouth all over its collective chin. The in- vited guests came around lunch time, and the juleps became sparse at two. But we shoved the mortgage ahead another five years, bought more stock, and carried on. The party ended with the glorious victory of the Record oarsmen over the News on the Housatonic. Clemens received Ail- American rating. Summer soon came and we closed the fiscal (Concluded on page pj) 90 Ergo Ego CvMTHE T. HAWKER, Member of the Board, Sat in his chair Looking quite floored. Symthe T.

Raining, of course, and we were hungry. Not having any Yale Hope Mission tickets, it was decided that we should cast dis- cretion aside and brave the college dining-room. There wasn ' t any more No. i (which sounded delicious). There wasn ' t even any more No. 2 (which was Horti- cultural Beans with gray Chicken Giblets ). No. 3 was our sole recourse. . . . George Washington Fluggies with Robert E. Lee Gravy. What a panic! While wait- ing for our tempting delicacies to arrive, a rather comely morsel stalked into the dining-room, dragging behind her a boy — probably her date. He seemed a bit under the weather, but quickly revived as soon as he read the enticing menu. Apparently unaware that there were others in the room, they promptly pulled an East Rock right there in front of all assembled. Between embraces, they both managed to nibble at their food. Their appetites satisfied, they resolved to adjourn the session. With that, he picked her up, swung her over his shoulder, and effected a majestic exit. We all had a good laugh and ordered seconds. A f ore about Silliman. Just as there is a long-standing feud between Branford and Saybrook, Pierson and Davenport, it is becoming increasingly evident that the same kind of toadstool is bound to develop between Timothy Dwight and the new shiny No. 10 on Temple Street. Familiarity breeds the well-known contempt. But the feuds in the past have been confined to the Yale campus exclusively. Members of Saybrook could ven- ture over into Branford without once stepping on munic- ipal ground ; while conniving Piersonites could dump their iron eggs in Davenport without fear of crossing the New Haven brass buttons. But if the habitues of T.D. decide to wheel a wooden horse before the gates of Silliman, or plot to loose tracer bullets across the way, they have to cross Temple Street. There ' s the rub. We see it all too clearly. Innocent citizens, only vaguely aware of the ground they tread on, will have their lives snuffed out while coming home from the churches on the Green. People driving through this no man ' s land will soon learn to black out their headlights, and crouch on the floor beside their throttles. Whistling beer cans and time-fused White Horse bottles will take their toll, scattering the little High School girls like leaves before the wind. Perhaps, in the end, something may be done about it. But not before the damage is done. Lord our God, Thy will be done. Time tells us that thousands of Italians, afraid of lighting camp fires in the Albanian mountains not long ago, feasted on raw mule meat while native back- woodsmen and mountaineers seasoned the meal with boulders. Greece certainly does seem to be getting into Mussolini ' s hair. What hair? You and your good to the last drop. Cpeakinc of the New Haven Road, we were very much amused by a very much agitated woman in the sta- tion the other day. She came whipping down the under- pass thing there (whatever it ' s called — you know, it goes under the tracks) and screamed at the uniformed official, who was obviously quitting work, Where is the 8:15 for Grand Central? On the way to Grand Central — you ' re a little late. I am not! she irately yelled. Pardon me, lady; then the train must be just an insy-binsy bit early. Good-night, sugar, and pleasant dreams!

First, Fox called Cheney aside and suggested com- pleting a number of articles during the summer for next fall. Preston suggested that each board member write stuff over vacation so that we could be well sup- plied for the Freshman number. Robin- son, however, said there was no reason why we all shouldn ' t gather material during the summer. Cheney thought this a good idea. Back in New Haven, last fall, there was a general inertia around the office, until Parcheesi Champ Preston gave seed to a duzer of a dice game which we published as a center spread, and started the year off with a bang. It was not until this year that an un- friendly note entered the harmony be- tween the Record and its female admirers. The cause was a mis- taken identity concerning Mrs. Roosevelt, the Smith Tatler, and Martha Pierce, a comely Smith wench who writes letters at the drop of a hat. About this time, after everyone had re- covered from the ghastly ap- parition that appeared on our Harvard cover, the Record A.C. trundled up to Wheaton for a joust at Field Hockey with a motley aggregation from the Harvard Lampoon. Lacking - Y The coup that failed Humoresque substitutes the Record ' s ten iron men played hard and sportingly, but were defeated by a freak of chance and poor mounts. Continued hilarity through- out the winter months has had a debilitating effect upon some of less hardy board members. At one memorable meeting, Sullivan collapsed from a rup- tured abdominal wall due to over laughter, and Fox threw up his tonsils. Of course, the summum hilaritatis came when the Record Publishing Co. branched into other fields with TORRID TOTAL WAR TALES. The repercussions of this masterpiece broke sev- eral windows in Waterbury. The smear campaign was a trifle thwarted, but the results have been magnificent, the majority of us having signed with M-G-M just the other day. We mention in passing the very important significance of our poll of the senior class, and, lest we forget, our sorrow at not having made more profitable use of the Powers models who have adorned our office since January. The time has come to bid adieu to Grynzpan and Spit Cane, and we sav a tearful farewell. 93 Back Row: Whittemore, Gardner, Abrahams, Angleton, Johnson.

It was winter, and the wind whistled in lonely cadence through the rattling windows of old Connecticut, swirling to- bacco smoke throughout the room. But spring returned one day to the Chi Delta Theta room, and we felt a peculiar expansion within us: we soon perceived our inherited divin- ity and divine judgm ent. Our stature reached the skies and our criticism shook the stars. Now that we had received that infallible, apostolic power which annually descends upon each new- Li Board, we found our articles and poems and stories far more frequently in the august pages of the Old Lady : strange that our productions had improved so appreciably! Our critical com- ments assumed more authoritarian tones, while astonished contributors viewed with consternation huge initials scrawled in impudent sacrilege on the pages of their masterpieces. With the power of the Lord and rejection upon us, we arose and smote the Philistine hip and thigh, image and meter, comma and paragraph. The Philistine, the contributor, returned rearmed, and we smiled, half-hoping that he would overcome us and, Prometheus-like, scale our Olympus; or he re- turned no more, and we cast a vast cypress heavily on his tomb. Spring brought more than apotheosis, more than canonization of our importance. We had found our heavenly mansion in Connecticut Hall occupied already by bright, unassuming Mr. Canby, himself once of the immortals. Soon he strayed away to quarters more congenial to litera- ture and genius, while some other historically- minded scholar usurped his place and ours, meta- morphosing our sedate tabernacle into a voluptu- ous parlor. Over the summer, however, sin, he, and we were forgotten, and the powers of the Spanish Inquisition, with slow but dire intent, moved in upon us, allowing us to use their ca- pacious torture table whereon we flayed many an undergraduate author. The screams, heard out- 94 side, nevertheless, were merely Herbert Abra- hams ' conception of harmony. Despite a wanderlust engendered by numerous maps of exotic South America and romance- tinged Spain, we grew intellectual. The first re- sult of our intellectualism was an issue devoted to the criticism of very modern poetry. Those who understood the world-shaking judgments handed down by the learned undergraduates contributing to this publication were unanimous in praise of it. The second result was an issue devoted to the critical consideration of the poetry of Archibald MacLeish, former Lit editor and outstanding Yale poet. Mr. MacLeish favored us with an original poem, which, we believe, was the only one of his works left unanalyzed by our critics. Critical essays dur- ing the year became more fre- quent in our pages, and there was a salutary trend toward the inclusion of serious, if not schol- arly, thought, although a satire concerning the Yeats forger- ies could hardly be termed either. Sometimes, indeed, the criticized material has not been worth the time spent in its analysis; sometimes our critical standards have appeared of doubtful validity; but the Old Lady tried, at least, to resume one of her most valuable func- tions. Several of our early issues were organized around symposia Slightly Lit on Yale affairs, but we found it difficult to obtain suitable articles ; and those written at our re- quest on a Senior ' s estimate of his Yale education and on the policies of the Lit were disappointing. Then we tried to shock the University with an article on Senior Societies, but despite the re- printing of an ancient essay, we effected little. It was not difficult to manage our magazine. We dressed the Old Lady in many colors, some seemly, some unseemly for a shrew of her age. We bore, quite unconcerned, several eminent re- viewers ' damnation of our judgment, until we grew wise and distinguished acceptable critics, as Jephthah the Ephraimites, by the pronunciation ir 1 Paukt of a word — the word excellent. We even found time to lend the Old Lady ' s prestige to the pub- lication of Senior theses. For we were not so pridefully aloof as it may have seemed to some : we were not really gods but only demi-gods. We had seen the giants depart into an outer limbo, and we had welcomed new men to the Board. In our year we learned that, while undergraduates are uni- formly lacking in genius, they have many skills, some ideas, and a little feeling. We had realized, by the end, that we were no deities on shining thrones, that we too must watch the elms sway- ing near Welch and the leaves swirling on the campus, for it was March and winter again when we departed.

The Yale Scientific Magazine IN A not-too-large, somewhat untidy, plain square room on Strathcona ' s fourth floor this year came into being the four annual copies of Yale ' s smartest looking, furthest reaching pub- lication, the Yale Scientific Magazine. Fusing the hard facts of science and the intangibles of liter- ary achievement between two covers about thirty pages apart has been the job of the Editors, and this year ' s crew is about the forty-fifth in the line of succession. Back in those dim untutored days when Chau- cer and a little natural science were all the armament the Yale man had against the world, Charles F. Scott, L. P. Breckenridge and a few other foresighted engineers established a link be- tween science at Yale and the Alumni in the form of a University science news letter. It has always been the purpose of the magazine to carry on this liaison service, dishing up four times a year articles by faculty, undergraduates and alumni informative to each other in the field of science and engineering. This isn ' t a history of the magazine — it ' s just giving credit where credit is due for the start and continuance of a good idea. This year has been an up period on the graph of adherence to the original idea. All the material has been from, for and about Yale and her scientific and engineering graduates. For this fact the Editors collectively thank Yale, her grad- uates, faculty and undergraduates but issue solmen plea and frank warning that if the maga- zine is to continue pushing higher the graph which measures the degree of its service to Yale the main push must come from Yale, her gradu- ates, faculty and udergraduates. We ' ve had fun this year in an unboisterous, workmanlike democratic sort of way. For the Scientific Magazine is Yale ' s only real democratic publication, where no managerial hierarchy pre- vents the new heeler from Wattsville from work- ing cheek by jowl with the Business Manager laboriously sticking stickers on copies of the new 96 issue so that it can go to Yale men in China, Costa Rica, Egypt and India and those just two blocks from Yale Station. Heelers and Board Members, unassisted by blonde secretaries, dicta- phones or adding machines, have written, edited, cut, pasted, stamped, signed, sealed and delivered some 6000 magazines during the year. The young lad from Wattsville has had no more but no less to do with writing, editing, cutting, pasting and stamping than the Chairman, Managing Editor or other functionary who may have his name on the masthead. And maybe that ' s why, now that most of it is over, thanks and remembrances jump among us, crossing in random pattern instead of filtering down in stilted phrases from above to those below. The remembrances are chiefly these; of Austin Devine spending the Christmas vaca- tion bumping around inside of a tank down in Kentucky so he could see and hear enough to write something considerably more authoritative about our armored force than you will find with- out quite a search: of Jim Hirsch with a stick of searched and wrote again and hardly got decent thanks in return. Following the simple tenet of sticking to Yale and insisting that more and more people know more and more about Yale ' s laboratories, re- searchers, faculty and students, the magazine inaugurated three new features during the year — Research at Yale, Yale in Progress and Twenty-five Years Ago in the Scientific Maga- zine. We ground out some 10,000 reprints of various articles, made a few type-face changes and printed the program for the annual Engineer- ing Exhibit. We ' ve earned criticism from For- tune, advertising agencies and the University, and we ' ve received praise from about the same sources. Printing the exhibit program in the format of the magazine reaffirmed its intermedi- ary position between Yale and the public, re- affirmed it as a medium by which Yale and national defense may be brought closer together in the unpleasant days during which our suc- cessors will do a better job than we. Slide rule experts Finishing touches liquid oxygen explosive in one hand and the stick of a Taylor cub in the other and writing about both equally well : of Mac Jordan and his mon- keys from the Institute and Marc Prass with his 300 letters — count them : of Fred Stugard seeing so many pictures of airplanes he had to learn to fly one for the old man in the red, white and blue suit: of Phil Wootton burning the mid- night oil with the printer: of George Keutgen buried in figures but without a solid dollar to anchor to : of Bill Robinson — mostly on the run.

The Yale Glee Club tie I WHEN the organization meeting of the Yale Glee Clubs was called last September 30, the attendance of interested candidates approached the 600 mark. After two weeks of arduous in- dividual voice trials, 307 successful candidates emerged from the ordeal and were allocated to the three squads, the Yale Glee Club, the Apollo Glee Club and the Freshman Glee Club. There was an added note of enthusiasm and interest at the outset of this season because, in addition to the Christmas Concert Trip which was planned for the mid-west, a pioneering adventure into South America was underway. Our Director, Marshall Bartholomew, had spent last summer in South America laying the ground-work for a concert tour which will set forth on June 20 with sixty Yale songsters to bring an academic greeting in music from Yale to her sister Ameri- can universities in South America. Headed by Donald Devor, Glee Club Presi- dent for the year, the Glee Club season proved to be one of the busiest and the most successful that could have been hoped for. Manager Dixon Downey had organized a series of concerts, the first of which was the joint Yale-Princeton foot- ball game concert in Princeton November 15, followed by a Woolsey Hall concert of the Yale and Harvard Glee Clubs in New Haven on November 22. On December 6 the Yale Glee Club went coeducational and traveled to Pough- keepsie to sing a joint concert with the Vassar Glee Club whose members entertained the Yale men with dance as well as with song. Highlights of the winter season focus particu- larly upon the concert tour to the west. With two Pullman cars and a lounge car serving com- fortably as home for ten days, the Glee Club visited six cities including Cleveland, Detroit, Chicago, St. Paul, Minneapolis, Cincinnati, and Pittsburgh. That list counts up to seven, but the actual number of concerts was six, because, through the magic of song, the Yale men of Minneapolis and St. Paul forgot the fine and tra- ditional animosity which is supposed to exist between the Twin Cities and turned out for the one concert which was held this year in St. Paul. (We were assured by one of our Alumni from Minneapolis that he personally came to St. Paul so seldom that he really didn ' t know his way around downtown in that benighted city.) A favorite number on this Christmas program was Arthur Hall ' s ( ' 24 Mus.) song The Battle of the Books to a text by Fairfax Downey ( ' 16). This is quite the best student song that has appeared at Yale in many a year and was enthusiastically received everywhere. After our visit in Detroit it was suggested that an addi- tional verse be added describing the battle of the Glee Club management in trying to get the The Four Hoar Me ale Glee Club away from a dance at the h me of Mrs. Allen Shelden where Tommy Dorsey was going to town with his orchestra at a tempo that made one forget all about railroad time tables. Returned to New Haven and rested from the 3000 miles in a Pullman car, the Club sang in Hartford and in New York during the month of January, but the high- light of this mid-winter season remains the con- cert in Woolsey Hall by the world-famous bari- tone Paul Robeson who on January 17 sang the Ballad for Americans with the Yale Glee Club. The tenseness of the present international situation and the dramatic performance of this patriotic ballad made this a memorable performance. The Junior Promenade Concert on February 28 finished up the winter season and as this report goes to the editors the Club is anticipating a trip Banana split down east for a concert in Portland, Maine, on the 26th of April and the return engagement of the Vassar Glee Club in New Haven on May 3. The World War now raging brings to the Yale Glee Club two interesting special engage- ments connected with war relief benefits. On April 25 the Club will journey to Hartford to sing at a benefit concert in Bushnell Audi- torium organized by the Norwegian War Relief Committee of Connecticut and presided over by the Prime Minister in exile of Norway, Hambro, with His Royal Highness Crown Prince Olaf. On April 27, under the auspices of the British War Relief, the Club will participate in a radio greeting to young Britain. Originating from New York, the program will include such distinguished artists as Helen Hayes, Gertrude Lawrence and Judy Garland and will be sent over a wide distribution in the United States and Canada, hooked-up with the British Broad- casting Company in London so that it will be heard throughout England as well. Spring trip And ahead of us lies the adventure in South America. Sailing June 20 on the SS Brazil the Club will sing in Rio de Janeiro, Sao Paulo, Santos in Brazil, Montevideo in Uruguay; Buenos Aires, La Plata, Rosario, Cordoba, Men- doza in the Argentine ; Santiago and Valparaiso in Chile; Lima in Peru, Guayaquil in Ecuador and following its final concert in Panama City should be home about the middle of August. Since the love of music is deeply rooted in Latin America we anticipate the same cordial reception that the Club has enjoyed on its previous concert tours in Europe.

Band Smaller than usual this year, the Yale Band exhibited definite restraint by overcoming the impulse to shorten the spelling of the name of the first Blue football opponent to VIRGIN, and, later, by voting down the formation of a dollar sign or of PRO for the Cornell stands. Seriously, the Band, emphasizing marching for the first time in many years, with Drill Master Tiny Small religiously preaching precision, turned in a fine season of workmanlike and star- tling formations, as well as excellent music. The most unique performance was that at the Navy game, when a battleship, formed in outline on the field, was moved ten feet (in unison, mind you) to the tune of Sailing, before being sunk on a fake Yale mine. Drum Major Wally Wil- liams led the Band in its finest show, achieved before the Harvard game, when it formed a Y within the giant H made by the Cantabs. The same day, Williams put on a two-baton show, and the band swung out on Friendship, dished up by Leader Gordie Mannweiler, who dashed off several special fanfares and swing arrange- ments throughout the season. There were mishaps, of course. A tuba, of all things, was stolen down at Princeton, and Sadie Hawkins Day, in spite of the frantic efforts of the Band, proved to be a confused attempt at hilarity. The mud that day, however, was a minor difficulty compared to the Jersey mire they waded through in their pre-Tiger-game practice. Once, too, the Band, usually glad of any small gift, had to fight off the donation of a girl drum ma- jorette by the management of the Arena.

University Choir Under the capable guidance of Mr. Luther Noss, Battell ' s organist and choir director for two years, the choir has had an entirely suc- cessful year. The choir is a serious organization, a group of able and enthusiastic singers under an accomplished director who is admired by all as a leader and a friend. With this to consider, it is not extraordinary that the weekly performance should be comparable to the highest standards. By virtue of an ingenious selection of works, the choir has sung music from varied fields, and has proved itself capable of performing choral music which covers in time a span of seven cen- turies. In addition to the familiar repertoire of Vittoria, Palestrina, Lotti, and Bach, which has been sung in Battell for many years, the choir has included several new works this year. Most notable among these from the standpoint of per- formance was Grieg ' s The Countless Hosts in White Array, an anthem of the advent season, in which Russel Mower, the baritone soloist, sang so beautifully that his performance will never be forgotten. Two particularly interesting an- thems were presented during the winter season, Nikolsky ' s O Praise Ye the Name of the Lord, and Bramston ' s Recordare, Domine, the latter being one of the new additions to the repertoire; both anthems are rarely performed, and they represent music of their period which was originally com- posed for male chorus. The choir found itself this year to be the inno- cent victim of the strife between ASCAP and the National Association of Broadcasters. Due to the fact that the choir sings largely ASCAP music, the broadcasts were discontinued at Christmas. To sing in the University Choir under Mr. Noss is without any doubt an experience of great value to all who are fortunate enough to be members. When a Yale student has worked in the choir for even as short a time as one year, he has rec:ived training which will be invaluable to all the singing he may do in the future; and what is more, he has acquired a taste for the greatest music in existence.

The Yale Dramatic Association The year 1940-41 has been exceedingly active and exciting for the Yale Dramatic Associa- tion. As the sole undergraduate group concerning itself with the practical production of worthwhile drama, the Dramat has presented a varied pro- gram that has not only served to carry on its long and honored tradition, but that has also met with increasingly favorable response from its audi- ences. When President Philip F. W. Peck, Jr., ' 41, and his executive board took office in March, there was still unfinished business in the form of a commitment with Smith College to present the popular Too Many Boys for les belles dames sans merci of Northampton. This date was hardly considered an obligation; in fact, when finally, in April, we wended our way up the College Highway to the Academy of Music in Northampton, we considered it as a nice gesture, solidifying pleasant relationships between the two Hairy apes schools of learning. And Too Many Boys met a packed and happy audience of college girls who enjoyed the antics of Messrs. Herrick, Paul, Peck, Wooster, Leggett, et. al. enormously. They immediately turned in a request for an- other such performance of whatever original musical we planned for this year. It is a definitely 104 The Fence Club bulged as an enormous group came to hear Professor Jack Adams outline our interests and aims ; Business Manager Alan F. Dill exhorted the inestimable advantages of heel- ing the business board ; President Peck and Di- rector Shevelove announced immediate work on the first Freshman production, Marlowe ' s trag- edy The Massacre at Paris which was ulti- mately presented in the Experimental Theatre late in October. Not only were the audiences treated to a swift and competent production of the little-known play, but the bill also included the singing of an Elizabethan ballad written by Marlowe, a prologue composed by Professor Shevelove and protege ' s pleasant prospect for the future. Graduation drew near, and Director Burton Shevelove and the board went into a prolonged huddle over the choice of the annual Commencement play. When discussions had ended, the result was the decision to produce Christopher Marlowe ' s famous Elizabethan tragedy, The Jew of Malta. Follow- ing exams, a hardy group of determined actors rehearsed throughout June, getting the production ready. With the Dramat ' s famous brother act, Newbold Noyes, Jr., ' 41, as the Jew, and Crosby S. Noyes, ' 43, as his slave, carrying their end of the dramatic roles, with President Peck as a lovesick 16th century swain, and to the accompaniment of nu- merous brilliant theatrical production and light- ing effects, conjured up by the stage crews of Tristam B. Johnson, ' 41, and John N. Deming, ' 41, The Jeiv of Malta was presented Com- mencement week-end to two large audiences of alumni, students, faculty and the public. Not only was this rarely produced play exciting and full of violent action, but the four-hundred year old beauty of Marlowe ' s majestic stage poetry still endured, a challenge and a goal for modern dramatists. When college reopened in September, the class of 1944 an d other interested undergraduates were assembled at the annual organization beer party. Eleven palpitating hearts Hemingway and delivered by Mr. Laurence G. Tighe, and to end the evening, The Wooing of Nan, a short Elizabethan romp starring those sterling performers, the Executive Board, Messrs. Peck, Johnson, Parsons, Lovejoy, Deming, Dill and Tighe, Jr. This rather kaleidoscopic evening of entertainment was an interesting and success- ful experiment. For the first regular production of the year, the Dramat revived George S. Kaufman and Marc Connelly ' s famous comedy, Merton of the Movies, starring President Peck in the title role of the movie-struck Merton of the 1920 ' s. Under Director Shevelove, a large cast labored for three November weeks ; the technical crews worked mightily to bring forth a heavy physical produc- tion embodying six separate sets. Costumed in 105 authentic clothes of the 20 ' s, and full of that quiet nostalgia which now surrounds the period of the early growth of the silent screen, Merton of the Movies was a distinct success. The Har- vard week-end audiences found the comedy still worthy of its author ' s reputation. And if Mer- ton did nothing else, it brought to light the talents of its leading lady, George G. Schreiber ' 41. Merlon of the Movies was especially suited to the Dramat ' s program of plays, aimed both at pleasing the tastes of its audiences, and also at reviving and producing worth-while works of the theatre. Much interest was aroused by the Dramat ' s purchase of a twenty-year-old touring model Kissel, later named the Merton Special, used for publicity and by the business department heelers to run errands. The Kissel occupies a permanent role in Dramata anecdota for years to come. Following the Christmas vacation rehearsals for the regular Experimental production were begun. Starring George Serries, ' 41, Eugene O ' Neill ' s famous The Hairy Ape was given in January in the Experimental Theatre. Serries ' impassioned performance as Yank, the brute stoker of an ocean liner, will long be remembered by the packed audiences which greeted Director Shevelove ' s workmanlike conception of this great American play. The imaginative settings of Peter Wolf, of the Drama School, were especially fine; and the lighting, acting and direction combined with the expressionistic backgrounds to form a piece of dramatic work, which for sheer excite- ment, pathos, strength of action and drama, will long stand as one of the finest of Yale Dramatic Association plays. The Hairy Ape with Serries magnificent acting, was far more than just an- other revival ! It was, in a sense, a rediscovery of a great work, a reworking of the old. The Hairy Ape was to be followed by an even greater success. With Junior Prom time only six odd weeks away, the Dramat had a difficult de- cision to make; should it give a straight comedy, or A perfect 33 Meatballs ft Calhoun A little Lorelei is a dangerous thing should it attempt to duplicate the enormous pop- ularity of the two original Prom musicals of 1939 and 1940, Here IV e Go Again and Too Many Boys ? Discussion was going on when William Schubart, Jr., ' 41, appeared with his proposed modern musical version of Chaucer, to be titled The Waterbury Tales. The possibili- 106 ties greatly intrigued both executive and the faculty advisory boards so a favorable verdict was rendered, and work immediately began on the 1 94 1 musical. The lure of the song and dance tempted a huge group to try-out ; and finally, a cast of forty-odd, of all classes, was chosen and began rehearsals. Day by day, for four weeks, the production crews labored, executing the designs of Peter Wolf, while upstairs, Buddy de Shevelove con- sulted with composers, lyricists, authors and as- sorted gag men. Dance director, Dean Goodelle, and costumier Joe Fretwell, III, veterans of the two former shows, repeated their duties. Nightly, and with increasing intensity, rehearsals pro- ceeded until finally, on March I, The Water- bury Tales opened its run to Prom audiences. The reception was gratifyingly enthusiastic. Critics and theatre-goers alike were lavish in their praise of the original revue which told of a group of Yale men who set out for a debut in Waterbury, Connecticut, and who have to walk when their car breaks down. The various stories told by the wayfarers formed the basis of the revue, and such individual numbers as The Lorelei, starring John D. Fletcher, ' 43, Am- phitryon 41, the Penelope ballet and Dink Stover must be singled out from the rest of the show as even better than the fine standard set by the whole. President Peck, George G. Schrei- ber, John D. Leggett, ' 42, President-elect Claude Douthit, ' 42, Chuck Aberg, ' 41, Dale Fisher, ' 41 were only a few of the outstanding personalities because of their specialties; the whole cast gave their all, and it was more than sufficient. Director Shevelove has been receiving congratulations ever since ; Broadway is definitely interested ; Zorina, who helped teach the ballet, was prostrate because she could not attend ; and The Waterbury Tales is a more than worthy successor to the high standards set by the previous Dramat musicals. At this writing, the Dramat ' s long-awaited production of Philip Barry, Here Come the Clowns, has been produced to the laudatory comments of critics and audiences alike. It was the unanimous desire of the 1940—41 board that the Dramat should produce this deeply moving allegory in which Barry depicts his own version of the struggle of Good and Evil in the world, Waterbury de-but a project which was enthusiastically executed by the Junior delegation which took charge early in March. With Director Shevelove directing an expert cast of both Drama School students, Dramat stalwarts, and a specially imported midget, Here Come the Clowns, again de- signed by capable Peter Wolf, proved no dis- appointment. It has successfully continued a Dramat tradition of long-standing — that of pro- duction of worthy neglected plays. An organiza- tion of college students, interested in the theatre, which can make the transition from farces to serious drama, from musical comedy to intense and sincere allegory, and can throw in a generous dash of Elizabethan melodrama for good measure, has a record of which it certainly can justifiably boast of a versatility seldom seen among acting groups today, whether professional or semi- amateur, such as the Dramat is. In all, President Peck and his 1940-41 Dra- mat, under the guiding hand of Burton Shevelove, have done a job of entertaining Yale of which they can be proud. Under the new Board headed by President Claude Douthit, ' 42, the Dramat will doubtlessly achieve even greater successes. Max Z. Wilk 107 Back Roiv: Chandler, Houghteling, Thomas.

The Yale Political Union At its founding, the Political Union was „ hailed in the editorial columns of the News as the beginning of an epoch at Yale. For after an era of studied indifference to world events, Yale had awakened to maturity, and through the Union, public affairs were no longer on the other side of the tracks. Now, in the seventh year of its life, the Union seems soundly established. Spurning High Seriousness in the first meeting under their regime, the newly-elected officers selected the somewhat playful topic, Resolved, That books have done more harm than good. The words of the guest speaker, bibliophile- savant Wilmarth Lewis, produced considerable hilarity, of the Union ' s dignified variety. The resolution was carried by the impressive vote of 10-8. Exiled German Professor Eduard Heimann took the stand as guest speaker at the second meeting, in support of the resolution That twentieth-century capitalism is inimical to the true pr inciples of democracy. By a vote of 36—19 the house concurred with the speaker ' s contention that capitalism has done away with equality. Robert H. Jackson, the Attorney General, was guest speaker at the capacity meeting on April 8, in which he successfully argued the question, Re- solved, That the policies of the New Deal should be upheld at the polls in 1940. Local color was injected into the meeting by McGeorge Bundy, 1940, be-ribboned and be-dizened in aristocratic garb, who urged the founding of a Tory Radical Party to lead the people ( a great beast, sir ) further to the left along conservative lines. The New Deal received a vote of confidence of 37—29. Two weeks before Tap Day, the Union de- bated a formerly untouchable campus issue: Re- solved, That the influence of the Senior Societies is not to the best interests of Yale. James L. Houghteling, Jr., led the attack on the Societies, and Walton D. Thomas and Newbold Noyes upheld the defense. William E. Jackson pointed out that the Societies ' influence on Yale was undeniahlv bad, that the influence on their niem- 108 Tammany huddle Tabula rasa bers was incontestably good, and that the question of accepting a tap was simply a matter of personal faith. Thirty-eight members and guests upheld the resolution, while 17 voted negatively. The Fall term of Senior year found the nation divided between isolationists and interventionists, and at the opening session Representative Hamil- ton Fish and President Harry Gideonse of Brooklyn College debated: Resolved, That an interventionist foreign policy is contrary to the best interests of the United States. The resolu- tion was defeated 61—52. Six days before the campaign of 1940 was decided at the polls, Arthur A. Ballantine, As- sistant Secretary of the Treasury under Hoover, and Assistant Attorney General Norman M. Littell took the rostrum to debate: Resolved, That Willkie should replace Roosevelt in the White House. An amendment nominating Earl Browder as a protest candidate against war was defeated, and the final outcome was a Willkie vic- tory, 50-29. Registration Day had in- terrupted the Fall term, and President Seymour had pro- posed his modified version of the Swiss system of military training for college students. At the final meeting before reading period, therefore, Professor Wolfers upheld the question, Resolved, That compulsory military Politicos training on a permanent national basis should be required of every able-bodied male American upon reaching the age of 21. The opposition, led by Charles R. Swift, was unable to defeat the bill, which passed by a vote of 23-19. With the acceleration of the country ' s prepara- tions for defense, a wave of intolerance for dis- tasteful opinions mounted steadily, and Roger Baldwin, President of the American Civil Lib- erties Union, addressed the Union in opposition to the topic, Resolved, That in the present emergency the United States should not tolerate civil liberties for fascists and communists. The resolution was carried by the decisive vote of 27-5- After the election of next year ' s officers, the Annual Banquet, celebrating the sixth anniver- sary of the Union ' s founding, was held with Russell W. Davenport, 1923, addressing the gathering on The Case Against the Intellec- tuals. Toastmaster William E. Jackson led the assembly in a standing ovation to Pro- fessor John C. Adams, ' 96, debating coach, who retires next year after four decades of service. At a time when the em- phasis everywhere is on ac- tion, it is doubly important that through the Union, reasoned speech be preserved. William Jackson 109 Back Row: Klots, Pigott, Mr. Adams. Front Row: Finch, White, Brewster The Yale Debating Association Embryonic lawyers, politicians, and states- men who ply their early trade in the Yale Debating Association have felt a particular inter- est this year. With vital questions offering them- selves at every hand, there has been something significant in going beyond the College Bull Session level and forming individual conclusions based on more than newspaper knowledge. In preparation for the debates it has not been a task, but a thrilling job to become acquainted with the controversial material. Likewise, there has been a noticeable increase in audience interest and a sin- cere desire on the part of the debators to convince that their side should prevail. There have been many rough and tumble battles, with the merits of the sides equally divided, and the outcome dependent on the quickest brains and most fluent tongues. The season opened in the heat of the Willkie- Roosevelt campaign. The debators refined their ■dining hall discussion technique and carried their enthusiasm to the platform. Burman, Jackson, and Noyes waved the Democratic banners suc- cessfully at Harvard, while Burgess, Pigott, and White won a Republican victory in New Haven against the visiting Cantabs. With warnings of third term dangers still echoing after the elec- tion, Allen, Bedell, and Wagner convinced the judges at NYU that a single six year presidential term should not be adopted. At Bates College, Speed, Borden, and White lost the decision in upholding the affirmative side of the same ques- tion. As election fervor died out interest was cen- tered in the War and the role that America should play. Klots and Whiteman journeyed to Wesleyan and successfully argued for repeal of the Johnson Act ; Conway and Marthey re- mained in New Haven and gained the judges ' nod over the other Wesleyan team. Japan ' s policy in the Pacific was the topic for a radio debate with the cadets from West Point. The Elis participat- ing were Burgess, Klots, and Speed. Dartmouth proved to be a nemesis for the two Yale teams of Borden, Jackson and Samford, Silverstein in a home and home debate concerning a union of the nations of the Western Hemisphere. Kenady and Pigott prefaced the discussion in Congress on the Lease-Lend bill when they invaded Princeton and proved to the judges ' satisfaction that a British victory is necessary to the security of the United States. The Big Three — Little Three debating tournament this year found Yale, Harvard, Princeton, I Knows all I: the answers Preparing for the morrow ' s battle Wesleyan, Williams, and Amherst vying at Mid- dletown on the issue of federal control of the press. Noyes and White successfully defended both sides of the question to win the tournament with a record of five victories and no defeats. The schedule for the remainder of the year promises several more intense contests. Curtis and McLendon will uphold the affirmative and Allen and Myers the negative against Princeton on the question of a union of the English-speak- ing nations. William Jewel College of Missouri will visit New Haven on its debating tour and engage a Yale team on the subject of a Western Hemisphere Union. Sometime in April loom the all important Triangular debates between Harvard, Yale and Princeton. With a clean slate against the teams of Harvard and Princeton so far this year, Yale ' s prospects for capturing the Triangular title ap- pear favorable. But Professor Adams has been coaching debating too long to allow himself the luxury of indulging in predictions. Members of the Association have not confined their oratory to the debating platform, many hav- ing participated in the prize speaking contests. The Buck Prize for Sophomores was won by Marthey. Klots received honorable mention over the other finalists, Speed, Kenady, Weil and Rubin. Samford was awarded the TenEyck prize for Juniors, while second place went to Holtzmann. Other winners were Allen, Borden, Rhett, and Burman. Freshman debaters, under the tutelage of Au- gust Hecksher, have had an active and successful season. Two victories were won over Wesleyan ; decisions were split with Brown, Kent and Choate; a loss was inflicted by Hotchkiss, and a radio debate was held with Columbia. Amherst and Williams remain to be tackled by the Yale freshmen, and their season will be climaxed with the Freshman Triangulars on April 25. Warren B.

Yale Community Council It is often lamented, and justly so, that in the complexities of modern society one is inclined to consider charity only in terms of dollars and cents, and not also in terms of encouragement and understanding, and an attempt to help with one ' s own hands and mind as well as one ' s pocket- book. The Yale Community Council, since its founding in the Spring of 1938, has shown that some two hundred Yale men a year have been willing to spend their time giving such help. It would be a grave mistake, however, to think of these services as being given without recompense. The returns in experience, friendship, and a far more thorough understanding of the lives and feelings of those less fortunate have made the benefits definitely reciprocal. On the whole the organization has maintained much the same form during the year that it had when the ' 41 Board took over. The weekly com- mittee lunches have continued to provide a pain- less method of coordinating the work, and the committee setup is the same. The work is divided among six committees, under four of which men work directly with groups of boys. Those men under the Athletics Committee serve as coaches and referees for teams and games of seasonal sports. Men in the Groups division meet clubs of boys ranging in age from six to twenty, and are likely to do anything from leading a discussion of foreign affairs to taking them to a varsity football game. The Handicrafts and Scouting committees ' work is explained in the names, while skits, singing groups, and plays such as Dr. Zacco and the Monster and Curse You, Jack Dalton! are sent out by the Enter- tainments and Dramatics Committee. Those working on the Hospital Committee entertain patients at the New Haven Hospital both by showing movies to groups and by visiting indi- viduals. These committees maintain contact with eight New Haven welfare organizations: The New Haven Boys ' Club, Dixwell House, Farnam House, Friends of Boys, Good Will Industries, Highland Heights Orphanage, the New Haven Hospital and the Neighborhood House, while the number of underprivileged boys in groups met weekly by a YCC volunteer is approximately five hundred. This figure does not include Boy Scout troops, for which YCC men serve as assistant Scoutmasters. Several improvements have been made within the existing structure which are worthy of note. Among these was an organization meeting held in the fall at which the activities of the Council were described by the heads of the committees. Another change in procedure was the drawing up of reports by the heads of the committees and bv the President, in the hope of building up port- folios which will eventually eliminate to a cer- tain extent the setback, suffered by all campus activities, of an annual change of officers. The establishment of a chair on the Board of the New Get set! Haven Boys ' Club should also be mentioned. This chance to see the workings of the largest organization of its kind in the city has helped the YCC to a more complete realization of the picture from the point of view of the settlement house. In addition there have been several more tangi- ble changes. The Handicrafts Committee has purchased a number of tools which were much needed, and thus has almost completely equipped two workshops, with the result that the work of this committee has been made a great deal more effective. Among the highlights of the season was an indoor track meet, held in two divisions, one at the Boys ' Club and one at the Dante High School. There was also an outdoor track meet late in the spring which took place at the Polo Field. Both affairs had been held in previous years, and helped round out the program of the Groups Committee, under whose sponsorship they were run off. An innovation, the railroad trip, also taken in the spring, was also highly successful. Through the kindness of the New Haven Railroad, a spe- cial train was provided which made a tour of the vards, the largest in New England, on which switching, loading and roundhouse operations were included. The last event of the year was the annual banquet, which was held in the DKE House. Mr. Sanford Bates, Executive Director of the Boys ' Clubs of America, was the main speaker, and Dean William C. DeVane also made a short talk. As time goes on there will probably be a num- ber of changes made in the YCC, but whatever difference there may arise in the mechanics, the essentials will remain the same. It will always continue to give New Haven boys the realization that the men at Yale have a genuine interest in them and in their lives, and to give its volunteers a much fuller appreciation of the problems and the outlook of those less privileged than they.

Countryman, ' 42S Fifty-three years old now — and no limbs ailing. Inspired by a great Yale heritage, the modern Dwight Hall carries on a vigorous and purposeful program of Christian activity among the undergraduates. Dwight Hall is the Christian 114 Association at Yale. It is run by the students for the students with the advice of a graduate staff and a board of advisors. There is no official mem- bership — no heeling. The primary purpose of Dwight Hall is to bring an intelligent under- standing of the Christian life to students. Dwight Hall is a member of the Student Christian Move- ment in New England, and of the National and World Student Christian Movements. The sig- nificance of this contact is great, providing not only an interchange of speakers, resource mate- rials, etc., but also a tangible sense of world-wide community, valuable in these times of social and national conflicts. The Association is housed in the old library building, complete with discussion rooms, music and periodical rooms, milk bar, lounge, offices and the beautiful chapel. The activities which originate here are just as many. The University Budget Drive, the Old Clothes Drive, student war relief: all these have their headquarters in the building. Each week end would witness a pro- cession of interested men going out on deputations to nearby churches and Sunday School groups. And then Dwight Hall also sent its quota of stu- dents down to the Yale Hope Mission to conduct services, help in handicraft projects, and to teach Bible sessions. The noonday worship service in the Chapel filled a real need in our daily lives. Nor is Dwight Hall itself the only organization to use the building. The Yale Community Coun- cil makes its home here ; the Christian Science Association held regular weekly meetings; here, too, met the Society of Friends and the Kohut Forum. Officially, the school year began for us with a large and popular Freshman outing at the Boys ' Club Camp in Wallingford. It was followed with the setting up of a Freshman program cen- tered around religious discussion groups. But the machine no sooner began to move than Charlie Swift and Jim Alter were forced to leave us — sincerely believing that as conscientious objectors they could do no other but to go to prison. Great That othe •light as this loss was to Dwight Hall and to those who know them, nevertheless we all were proud of their courage. The winter ' s program was focussed upon the Third University Christian Conference. Key- noted by Reinhold Niebuhr and followed in turn by John Crocker, Norman Thomas, and T. Z. Koo, the Conference formed the high spot of our endeavors. The O-At-Ka and Northfield Con- ferences also figured prominently. Special empha- sis was placed on Bible study and prayer — foun- dation stones of all Christian achievement. In the midst of such company and constantly surrounded by useful activity, we of the 1 941 contingent finish the year with many stirrings. Fay Campbell is a steady inspiration, and he will not be forgotten by the men who have worked with him. Dwight Hall serves a great need on the campus. We know that it will continue to do so under the able leadership of 1942 officers and staff. Solved probleTns 115 Back Row: Tighe, Ashley, Pierson, Dern, Aiken, French.

The Church of Christ as Battell Chapel seems a cornerstone of the i Old Campus, rooted securely in place on the busy corner of College and Elm Streets, so worship and spiritual development form a corner- stone in undergraduate life, firmly fixed. With some it remains in the dim sub-conscious, with others it plays an active part in everyday life, but for all it is a permanent and all-pervasive in- fluence. To bind together the individual religious groups of the University into one non-denomina- tional whole for the mutual benefit of all is the purpose of the Church of Christ in Yale Univer- sity, and towards this end it has been working since its founding in 1756. Under the direction of the Rev. Sidney Lovett, 191 3, a service is held in Battell Chapel every Sun- day morning throughout the college year. To the pulpit come men widely known as leaders of reli- gious thought, and the nucleus of this group is the Board of Preachers, each member unofficially rep- resenting one of the nine residential colleges: Messrs. Arthur H. Bradford, George A. But- trick, Henry Sloane Coffin, Angus Dun, Arthur Lee Kinsolving, Reinhold Niebuhr, Henry Knox Sherrill, Willard L. Sperry and Robert R. Wicks. A noonday service of worship is held in Dwight Memorial Chapel every weekday except Saturday from 12:10 to 12:30, with members of the fac- ulty and guests reading the lesson or making a brief address. During the period between the Christmas recess and the spring recess a half-hour vesper service is held in Dwight Memorial Chapel Wednesday afternoons at 5 130 o ' clock. At these services headmasters and chaplains of schools with representations of alumni in the undergraduate community are invited to deliver a brief address. An undergraduate board of deacons is elected annually from the Junior Class. During their Senior year the members serve as ushers on Sun- days, and, together with the faculty deacons, meet from time to time with the chaplain in an advisory capacity. 116 The More Club OFFICERS Reverend T.

Swain Fellow of the Yale Corporation George E. Woodbine George Burton Adams Professor of History Firmly entrenched on a penin- sula of land, surounded on three sides by the ebb and flow of automobile, bicycle, and even street-car traffic, the college that is Berkeley presents an exterior inured to the evils of civilization. With portals closed during the early morning hours (due to the shortage of campus cops) this sepulchre of some 200 odd souls must incite the casual passer-by to quicken his stride as he heads for a destination beyond or per- haps unknown. From the outside this Gothic citadel is singularly uninviting, majestic, sedate — like the mainline debutante with the classic pose. But the sage is never fooled by a front — by what seems to be. He seeks for the spirit behind the mask, for there lies the understanding and the will. The spirit of Berke- ley is a complex active being that seeks an out- let in many channels of endeavor. It strives for learning and knowl- edge — evidenced from the fact that over 40% of its students are on Dean ' s list and some 10 of its representa- tives are Phi Beta Kappa men. It athletic recognition with better than records in many sports. And by way of showing itself a well-rounded human entity, this spirit seeks relaxation and diversion of many kinds within the college itself. On Sundays it chats pleasantly at the informal teas in the Master ' s House. On occasional week-nights it makes merry at beer and skittle parties in the lounge. And whenever temptation becomes too great it plays bridge, gets involved in heated monopoly games, or builds castles in the air while listening to a Bach fugue or Bee thoven Symphony on the soul-satisfying capehart. But enough generalities; in the words of Al Smith let ' s look at the record — of Berkeley activities and accomplishments at press time. To begin with athletics, the close of the football season found the Mitre men resting in seventh Internationalist strives for average place, unable to shake off the slump of the previous year. The team was just shy of the 500% mark with victories over Pierson, Jonathan Edwards, and Daven- port, but the lack of consistent offensive power kept Captain Hechinger ' s charges on the short end throughout most of the schedule. High spot of the sea- son was unquestionably right tackle Bill Jordan ' s catch of a partially blocked pass good for a touchdown against J. E. with only seven seconds remaining. Meanwhile, the touch football team, led by the ace passing com- bination of McLennan, Knowles, and French, was chalking up five victories to rank fifth in the Intercollege standings. The winter season was somewhat more suc- cessful with hockey and bowling leading the way. For the pucksters the steady forward wall of Bucky Harris, Captain Tad Davis, and Hutch DuBosque garnered five wins in the first seven games with two contests yet to play. Up at Ray Tomkins the Duckpin keglers caught stride after a disastrous inaugural ; and although too often minus the services of activity-man athlete Irv Walradt, managed to pass Saybrook in the final game of the season to capture third place. Pete Billingsley and Charley Hart, with scores consistently over a hundred, set the pace, the latter striking the second highest score of the season, 156, in one of the final matches. In bas- ketball, Captain Carter Dye kept his team in the running by staying among the first five individual June ' s the dead line high scorers through most of the campaign. A look into the crystal ball promises plenty of victories and excitement for the spring season. Captain Parsons, for instance, is willing to predict anything for the nine if he can pull a good pitcher out of the hat and if Ernie de- Zaldo continues to make hits and runs with remarkable regularity. Of course the ifs are all-impor- tant, but it doesn ' t take any Kipling to point out that the unpredictable is the lifeblood of any sport. There was also activity of a more social nature during the past year. First of all was the al- ways entertaining Christmas party marked by Professors Crosby and Allison ' s careful decorations, a crackling log fire in the mysteriously flue-less fireplace, and the inimitable wit of guest John Hoysradt of the Broadway success The Man Who Came to Dinner. His delightful imita- tions, caricatures, and coughing jags kept mas- ters, wives, and students at the height of the festive mood. Then the college dinner of Febru- ary 24 was enriched by the famous English man-of-letters, Alfred Noyes, who gave vent to Clu his spirited poem The Highway- man — as it should be read. The annual Thanksgiving party at the Hemingways ' was as charming as ever with the excellent turkey din- ner, songs, cider and doughnuts; the added attractions of Frank Taplin ' s piano playing, and the dash of English humor furnished by the guest from across the pond — Stephen Handfield-Jones. Friday, March 7, was enliv- ened by the Berkeley players in Beaumont and Fletcher ' s The Knight of the Burning Pestle under the direction of Beecher Hogan. Long to be remembered are Art Keefe as the citizen, Al Barney as Ralph, John Clark as Jasper and Chilly Thomson, Larry Weisberg, and Dave Beers as wife, mistress, and sweetheart, respectively. As a matter of fact, this comedy take-off on Cervantes ' Don Quixote met with such success that precedent had to be broken with a repeat performance on Sunday night. Finally, there was the annual party commemorating Bishop Berkeley ' s birthday. This important event was graced by the Reverend Thomas Huntington Chappell ' 28, Associate Fellow of Berkeley Col- lege, and Rector of St. Paul ' s. Broke but happy 123 Mention must also be made of Berkeley men who have made good in the University as a whole. We are proud to own both the Chairman and Managing Editor of the 1943 Newsboard — Stirling Tomkins (one of the few Sheff men to hold this honor) and Zeph Stewart. Then there is George Washington Kirchway, III, who has a head of a foot in everything from the Junior Prom to the football team. We honor the fact Double trouble Directed by the chief late-season bright spot in the University football season, and Ben Hopkins, who played on the forward line of the undefeated University Soccer Team. But the lighter and more amusing side of the year ' s happenings is what we remember best. We recall the time Herb Bartlett woke up on morn- ing on a train bound for Kansas City, looked at himself in the Spiegelgas, and realized that he was of the best Hollywood material. Of course Bartlett acquired the necessary training as a members of that all-star Berkeley players ' cast of The Shoemakers ' Holiday. - ' We also remember the miscellaneous assortment of game hanging from the windows in the annex (Wall Street half of Berkeley), mementoes of a successful hunting week end. Then there is the bowling on the green-between, inspired by Drake ' s last stand on land before going out and trimming the that five of the first ten Phi Beta Kappa men for the class of 1941 are Berkeley men — President Jake Madden, Angus Gordon, Carlos Angulo, Frank Lavery, and Karl Thompson. We proudly mention Dale Fisher as captain of the 1 50-pound crew and Louis Hemingway, who is well on his way toward a career in music with his Ukranian polka, an original composition, and his musical score for Why So Pale and Wan. Dave Ressler and Bill Crawford, managers of the University crew and swimming teams respectively, and Tim Ireland, crew-manager elect for the following year, are also worthy of mention. And finally, special mention to Chuck Willoughby, Sopho- more find who came out of nowhere to furnish a Just before the gar 124 Armada. We remember the delightful afternoons in Chilly Thomson ' s room listening to the most varied if not largest collection of phonograph records in the University. And never to be for- gotten is Cymbaline, that proudest of mothers whose prospective litter of little ones inspired the hottest lottery in college history — any resem- blance to members of Berkeley living or dead being entirely coincidental. We point with pride to the incomparable oak dining hall with its exquisite carving, and will always wonder if the floor would support the 2,987,400,000 dimes it would take by rough calculation to fill the in- terior. And finally, an orchid to Marv — our charming headwaitress with the Irish brogue who could put culprits to shame with the flash of an eyebrow, but who is chiefly remembered for her ability to keep alive an interest in the feminine side from one week end to the next. We are proud to know that Berkeley ' s glorious tradi- tion will carry on after us when we learn that some 400 Freshman of the Class of 1944 applied for the house seemingly divided against itself but actually connected by a maze of catacombs remi- niscent of Valjean under the City of Paris.

It is inevita- ble. Whether they come with open mouths to gape at the Great Court, or convene there to vie for Honor on Yale ' s ceremonial Tap-Day it little matters. Per- haps they are the foes of Gothic architecture, come to illustrate the finer points of their dubious arguments. Or perhaps they are the friends of the flamboyant tracery, cinquefoils and gar- goyles, come to enjoy the beauty of it all. Then again they may have heard of our intellectual atmosphere, and are here to sniff a bit. Still they come. Usually we hang out the windows and gape a bit ourselves. Although we have long since be- come accustomed to our architecture, the intel- lectual air is a bit stuffy at times, we will admit, and a quick gander at the visiting firemen gives a welcome relief. Lacking any firemen, we must direct our recreational energies elsewhere, and sometimes the results are somewhat startling. Gothic architecture is peculiar in that it fosters almost opposite ends. The virtual closeting which it effects is highly conducive to study — any noise or light which may filter through the heavily leaded windows and massive walls is pretty im- potent by the time it reaches human senses. On the other hand, the same fortifications tend to ill Hi ill ill i 111 Hi Hi i II II throw the confined into a pretty strong fellowship, and the result- ing proximity of parts gives rise to many highly successful co- operative endeavors, legitimate or otherwise. Take the Branford Press, for example. Once it contented itself with turning out an occasional Bulletin, menu, or other piece of subversive literature (not to mention the annual batch of decorative Christmas Cards). Now, however, under the stimu- lus of Branford ' s genuine interest in itself, the Press is working like a dog to turn out the Bran- ford Year Book — an excellent Wheeler-directed sixty-page summary in photographs and drool on Who ' s Who and What ' s Up? in Branford. Last year 200 Branfordites subscribed to the Year Book, and from all indications this year will be a sell-out. And then there is the Branford play, tradition- ally a modernized version of a classical theme, presented sometime around the Ides of March. This year it fell on the nth, and knocked down the whole college with laughter. Pseudolus, it was called, out of Plautus, and ably translated from the Latin by our own Master Mendell. Top honors for the production went to Ted Lockwood as Callodorus and O ' Connor as Pseu- dolus, both of whom stood up mighty well under M I I the strain of such heavy Latin titles, although there were those few who maintained that Lock- wood staggered a bit at one point. But they were sitting at the back of the Dining Hall, so how should they know? Several times during the year Branford meets in the dining hall for serious occasions, notably the Founders ' Day Dinner, and the Christmas and spring dinners. The Christmas dinner is perhaps the most colorful of the lot, what with its resplendency with candles, pine branches, holly, and the like. Perhaps it might be nice to mention here another decorative fea- ture of the dining hall — a most Venus- like waitress whose very presence turns the more sordid tomato frappes into sheer am- brosia. She came to us around the middle of the year, and outside of an occasional new hair- do, has survived re- markably well. Drop over some time and take a look. Beneath the hall is the lounge, where the Foxy owl more informal gatherings convene. It is here that German, Finley, and Co. hold forth on the piano, while the more embryonic pianists stand by and tap their feet. The music as a rule ranges from Boogie Woogie all the way up to Boogie Woogie, with perhaps a dash of Boogie Woogie thrown in for good measure. The rhythmic beat here is ofttimes picked up in far away Cooper entry, the home of Abrahams and the UnmufHed Drums, whereupon anyplace from ten to twenty various wind instruments will carry on all over the college. Such a situation is, of course, un- settling to our venerable lovers of the Beethovens and Bachs. Time and time again under the lead- Blitzkrieg ership of Martin and Hogerton they have arisea as a body and expressed polite indignation. Branford, like other of the colleges, boasts its dyed-in-the-wool bridge players. Chief among those who cut and deal around here is, appropri- ately enough, Chief Aide Charley Armstrong. As a matter of fact the whole Dickenson entry has the twitches from handling the pasteboards,, and although they may be good, they have been known at times to indulge in a bit of illicit poker in the more darker carrels as a sort of change of pace. Or perhaps this same gamy lot may go in for a bit of chess, a game whose strongest ad- herents are Vanamee and Spelman, neither of whom can hold a candle to Baxter, the captain of 129 the Yale Chess Team who lives hard by. For those who claim more strenuous exercise there is always the game room in the first court, com- plete with pool table and ping-pong field. Not all of Branford spends its time chasing ping-pong balls, however. Branford this year had a notable athletic record in other fields. The track team, in the college meet, won easily over its closest opponent, the Calhoun club, by a good twenty-five points. Branford men like Owen, Hopkins and Ord had a field day, and in only one event, the pole-vault, did Branford fail to place. In the way of other ch ampionships the Epee Team walked off with top honors, running through their opponents one-two-three-four — Elis Culbertson up in the same position. Interest at the present seems to center about the Branford crew and baseball team, two organ- izations that have futures with the shine and surety of stainless steel. The crew this year is in the capable hands of Dave Foster, an old blade of considerable finesse when it comes to feather- ing. The actual tank-work started in the mid- dle of March, whereupon even disinterested ob- Skoll Good for a laugh just like that. In the way of basketball things went along rather well until towards the end of the season, when a series of sudden setbacks forced the team down to third place in the Intercollege league. The football team had somewhat the same trou- ble, but was seriously handicapped by the loss of Captain Johnson early in the season. Nevertheless they stayed out of the deep cellar to end up in seventh place. The touch football team also ended I30 servers were heard to remark that Branford was a cinch to float at the top of the league. One advantage which the Branford baseball club holds over those of the other colleges is that it must continually hold its head up in the pres- ence of our own Joe Wood, Yale ' s captain, who lives in the far court. Joe ' s very presence is enough to inspire the club to all sorts of astro- nomical batting averages, so don ' t be surprised if you see us walking around with our chins in the air, unmindful of anything but our own athletic prowess. Sharon and the boys won ' t let us down. Meanwhile we are content to sit back and en- joy the remainder of this year in Branford under the momentum of a lot well done and the promise of a spring full of not too much rain. For those of us who are Seniors the end draws too well nigh plunging us into one heated burst of stu- dious application and a well of memories. Fairly soon we shall no longer be able to hear McCain ' s booming laugh, or a half-hour Stolzian telephone conversation. Even Bagg, perhaps realizing that the end draws near, has been in New Haven for two consecutive week ends, an otherwise unheard of phenomenon. Yes, they are all hanging close, now, suddenly unwilling to let the last few ex- citing days in Branford slip away.

But small as it may be, the col- lege teems with activity, for you have only to step inside the court any Spring evening to become in- volved in a game of nigger- baby, or if you go into the Common Room you might run into Father Rigg ' s rehearsal of a Shakespearean play or the college orchestra rehearsing for one of its concerts. If in the dining room, you would probably be collared by the Athletic Secretary for some team that was scheduled to play an Intercollege game that afternoon. Even the Tower, the remotest place of the college, is a popular place for Seniors to acquire a tan while studying for comprehensives. One noticeable thing about the college is the fact that everyone is continually striving to bet- ter it. The college Student Council, which was initiated two years ago, suggested that some arrangements for the playing of music during dinner be made. The idea was well received and now some of those who come to Calhoun for the first time are quite surprised to hear the im- mortal strains of a Strauss waltz coming from the dining hall. Universal commendation arose this year for the great increase in the proficiency of Calhoun athletes. At the end of the Fall season the Sena- tors found themselves occupying fourth, instead of last, place in the Intercollege League standings. The Touch Football Team, com- posed mainly of Sophomores and Captained by Wes Shapleigh, managed to win five, losing three and tying one game. The team beat Trumbull, the league win- ners, in a return, but unofficial game. Next year, with all of the team returning except one, we should certainly be one of the chief contenders for the cham- pionship. The football team seems to have acquired a traditional jinx; for a second year the chief op- ponent of the Senators was the Department of University Health in that the Doctors seemed to think that most of the boys were unfit to play a good deal of the season. Walt Wagoner re- ceived a shoulder injury in the first game that kept him out all season. Sprained wrists, ankles, twisted knees and the grippe each took their toll of players with the result that not one game was started with the same line-up as used in the game before. The first game saw revenge against Dav- enport in a 7-0 victory, for it was Davenport who had deprived us of first place last year. The game with Timothy Dwight proved to be the best, even though it ended in a defeat for the Senators, since it was the closest game of the year. A Calhoun fumble on the two-yard line that was recovered by T.D. prevented a tie of S lilt ■■■ !■■ I mij iii !!! Ill Hi Seen at all parties Leisure after lunch 134 6-6. Ernie Parshall, Tom De Mott, and Ned Lockwood, Captain-elect, carried the brunt of the attack. Ross Millhiser, Captain, was injured in the first game and had to watch the remainder of the games from the sidelines. The basketball and swimming teams, led by Dave Dangler and Bill Kennard, respectively, both finished higher than last year in the League standings. The swimming meet with T.D. was followed with exceptional interest. After scout- ing T.D. in a previous meet, the Senators emerged with a 34—32 victory that toppled the Prexies from first place. Doug Smith and Dave Saunders were one-two winners in the breast and backstroke events in every meet but one. Johnny Birmingham, the best diver in the Inter- college League, garnered first place in the diving event in every meet. The team finished in fourth place, one better than last year. The idea of a second basketball team, a B league, enabled a more concentrated effort on practice by the first team. Dave Dangler, Bill Witt, Don Gow, Lou Nickell, and Jim Collins made up an excellent combination, with Lou Nickell lead- ing the league in scor- ing. The team improved all during the season, and had there been more Fireballs time for pre-season prac- tice the final results might have been better. The hockey team has created the greatest sensation of the year, for while gaining only one victory last year, and that over Trumbull, the stickmen, to date, have won four out of seven games, and secured third place for themselves. The combination of Ford, Burns, and Herrity has been hard to beat and the former two have led the League in assists and goals scored. Gar Counselman, Captain, and Spense Moseley formed a stalwart defense. During the Yale-Harvard Indoor Track Meet that was held on Alumni Day an Intercollege half-mile relay was run off. A team made up of Bill Hutchings, Bob Lamar, Al Spurney, and Gordie Gates won with ease. Calhoun contrasts To change the subject, an amazing display of ambition was seen one afternoon in the court when a group, headed by Marvin Curtis, chief aide, spent the best part of three hours trying to model a snow woman after a well known New Haven lady(?) A petition to one of the college secretaries for some advice as to the best shape came to no avail. Len Starr, when he is not trying to win soap and last-line jingle contests, is trying to build up a classical record library that will better that of the college. In order to compete with him Bill Hutchings and Bob Currey have worked up an arrangement of Boogie-Woogie that will make anyone ' s hair stand on end. The weekly Tuesday night dinners have been continued again this year and with much suc- cess. Early in the fall at one of these dinners Ivy Williamson showed pictures of Yale ' s 13-7 vic- tory over Dartmouth. There has been so much talk about war these days that one can hardly get away from it. True 135 to the condition, several speakers talked about various aspects of the war. Mr. Reid, 1936, who is a special correspondent for the New York Herald Tribune and who had just returned from England, led a very interesting discussion on the effects of the war on England. Later on Pro- fessor Hubert Herring talked on the Inter- American Cultural Exchange. Professor Irwin Edman of Columbia presented the philosopher ' s attitude towards war. Professor Alan Bateman talked on The Role of Metals in Causing the Rise of Dictators the following week. About this same time there occurred a terrific mass argument one night when Mr. Whitridge precipitated discussion against the petition that had been circulated around college regarding aid to Britain. A good deal of thinking on the subject was undoubtedly stimulated, but at times it was X mas carousing feared that the eventual outcome of the meeting might not be peaceful. Walt Wagoner temporarily succeeded Jim Alter as president of Dwight Hall as the latter remained true to his convictions in not registering for the draft. On December 17 the Senators had their annual Christmas dinner, where there was much merriment and freely flowing beer. Mr. Whit- ridge told of some of the boys that had lived in Calhoun during their college days who had joined the British Army and Royal Air Force. The evening was climaxed by the presentation of a York mystery play, directed by the able Father Riggs, 1 910, which was very enjoyable in that it helped to brighten some of our ideals of a peace- Calhoun at play ful world, ideals which seem to have grown very dark. Mr. and Mrs. Whitridge continued to hold their pop- ular Sunday afternoon teas, that have provided an op- portunity for the Master and student to get really well acquainted. Although Calhoun is lo- cated on one of the busiest corners in New Haven, a slight glimpse into the life of the college proves how far away one can get from the hurley burley of cars, taxis, Edgewood buses, and Dixwell trol- leys. The change from the commercial world to that of the student is sudden yet unnoticed, for every student does it every day by walking through the archway. To those of us who will stop and reflect a moment, there occurs the thought of how fortunate we are in that we may enjoy to the fullest extent the many advantages that are put before us ; we have only to use them to gain the priceless fellowship that can only be found when men and boys work and play side by side, making their goals common ones. In spite of the truth of the old adage that, in 136 J affray liked it Spring a young man ' s fancy lightly turns to the thoughts of love, there is one feeling that comes to the mind of nearly every Senior, and realisti- cally for the first time — that in a few short weeks he will be leaving. Gradually he has grown to regret the thought of graduation ; but then there has always been something to think about that lies in the future, yet before graduation, even if it ' s only the Winter. Graduation — what does it mean? For one it means the end; the end of making Yale a home for four years ; the place where he has lived, worked and played ; had what he thought were awful troubles and yet perhaps the happiest four years of his life, where many new friends have been made ; ones that he will lose and others that he will have for the re- mainder of his life. Honestly and completely, he he has become one small part of the group that makes Yale what it is. For the other, graduation means the beginning — true commencement. The world presents a challenge to the individual, one in which we are told lies happiness, along a nar- row tortuous road that goes through war and peace, prosperity and depression, sorrow and happiness. At the same time our elders, who have brought us this far, give us an objective: to make this world a better one. So, it seems that each Senior is sorry yet upon graduation; sorry that he is leaving his college and University, but glad that with the things that he has learned he can meet the challenge that faces him.

For those who occupy the spacious rooms of Davenport ' s elite terrace the first rays of morning sunlight trickle down over the adjacent Elm Street tenements, known to invet- erate hybrids only as the home of a mysterious canine named Edward. For those who dwell in the lower court and those who hibernate in Davenport ' s so- called Senior entry, the sun never rises. It is seven o ' clock. Hal Clement ' s alarm clock has just gone off with its diurnal regularity, and has just as promptly been re-set for eight o ' clock. Jim Ackerman, probably the only Senior in Dav- enport ' s history who, not being in Sheff, has an 8:10 every day in the week, has just pulled him- self out of bed. John Green, Hod Harwell, John Cole and our other embryonic scientists and en- gineers are already up. They must prepare for the long trek to Sheff town. For Davenport is far removed from the cyclotrons of the Chemistry buildings and the amoeba cultures of the Biology lab. The remaining men who break their fast o ' er hybrid tables will rise at 8 :20 and dash into our spacious dining hall with tousled hair and sleep drenched eyes pro mptly as Mary is closing the doors. Newbold Noyes has just gone to bed. Those who have risen earl Where are the spirits? ■HI will, if it is a Monday, Wednes- day, or Friday in the first term, or a Tuesday or Thursday in the second term, meet Mr. Tinker as they go for their morning mail on his regular trip to W. L. Harkness. Those who have risen later will meet Messrs. Pierson, Mack, Labaree, Sizer and other illustrious Fellows as they stroll into their offices for a morning of business, scholarship, or classes. The Master by now is up in his studio, bridging Davenport ' s dual court life, and hard at work on some tempera painting or wild-life etching. Nancy and Harriet, the darlings of Davenport ' s lower court, will have to wait until after lunch for Larry Tighe ' s customary attention. In and out they pound all morning, stopping for a brief chat with Bob, or Joe, or George, pausing to window shop at the nearby sartorial establishments, dashing for a hasty breakfast at one of the Broadway coffee houses. Davenport is a strange place in the morning. Everyone ap- pears very busy and few are those who seem so- ciable. The courtyard is usually quite quiet and bare. The only morning when there was any mass activity was that brisk, grey morning of October 1 6 when we all filed into the common Latest dope 140 room to register under the Selective Service Act. Chuck Spaulding established legal residence in Davenport that morning. As the morning rushes to a close, the dining room opens for its hour and a half of customary lunch-time sociability. Carl Drake can usually be heard talking about the inner secrets of Sweet Briar social life, while Jack Lohman and Larry Lutkins will be crossing swords over some ab- struse point of higher education in America. Burt Rowley, Will Sanburn, Zig Owen, and Ross Taber will have dashed in to gobble down a hasty bite ; for they must be back to Yale ' s sub- urbs and the secrets of science. Frequently we eat with the Fellows, whose stimulating conver- sation and genial friendliness add much to the Davenport spirit. In the football season, at Prom time, and on other unpredictable occa- sions, a female figure will grace this otherwise masculine meal-time retreat. After lunch, each goes his separate way. Some must dash to the Library, the Graduate School, or the lecture halls for an afternoon seminar or lecture. Others will retreat to Davenport ' s li- brary to pour over their books to the accompani- ment of Bill Brown playing a Chopin prelude in the common room below and Mac Maclean peck- ing at the typewriter in the Senior Aide ' s office above. If it is in the fall, Warren Tepper, Bob Arnstein, Lee Werblin, Ted Cooke and others athletically minded will adjourn to the main court for the touch football game which seems to go on continuously every afternoon from two until six. If it is in the spring, such open-air ad- dicts as Charlie Price, Al Parr, Mike Raworth, Dick Osborn will withdraw to the lower court where Davenport ' s traditional paddle baseball matches are played. Others will drop into the newly refurnished music room, the center of Davenport ' s cultural activities. Here you may find Tom Judge and Jim Ackerman hanging up an exhibition of paintings, or Jim Kieran listening to Davenport ' s latest recorded acquisi- tion, or Eric Swenson sneaking in to bring back Tschaikowsky ' s Piano Concerto which he took out three months before. See those people dashing out the Park Street entry. If it ' s fall, they ' ll be the Davenport foot- ball team, led by Captain Rowley, and including such gridiron stars as Clyde Newhouse, Frank Lane, Bill Levin, and ' Bama Thomas. If the Heil Tuttle snow is on the ground, they ' ll be the hybrid sex- tet under the leadership of Captain Lindsay with a stellar forward line of Pete Solbert, Eric Swenson, and the captain. Or John Cole will be leading the basketball team for an encounter with traditional rivals, or Charlie Price will be Reading period ' ! 141 conducting the mermen for a match in the pool. When the days are getting long and warm, they ' ll most likely be Nick Franchot ' s crew 01 Pete Solbert ' s baseball team. Yes, contrary to popular rumor, Davenport does have its athletes. Time was, even, when they pulled in league championships, though this year was not a case in point. If it ' s a Thursday afternoon, many will b e heading for the common room about five o ' clock for tea with Air. and Mrs. Tuttle and some of the Fellows. There you will find Mr. Tinker dis- coursing on the art of flute playing, or Mr. Bissel telling about the latest article in the London Economist , or Mr. Pottle relating the story of Colonel Isham and the Boswell papers. Hut being in the midst of the arterial highway to the dining room, tea will break up promptly at six. For, the calendar having now turned back to Wednesday, it will be time for the weekly Davenport banquet, replete with steak and beer, for which few are ever late. It is on these occasions that the Fellows amble down the dining-room staircase, squeeze bv the Nonconformist — Sol-burnt Panama Hattie end table, pushing an occasional undergraduate under the board, and take their seats, promptly at 6:30, fully regaled in their dinner coats. After dinner, life is again complex and varied. Perhaps there will be a concert by a string quartet, of which there were two this year. Or there may be a piano recital. Fellow Bruce Simonds usually honors the college with one per- formance a year. Some will head for the Fellows ' lounge where Messrs. Milliken, Bissel, and Dunn lead the bi-weekly current events forum. The library will again claim some, though this time the only disturbance will be from members of that out- lying college with whom Davenport shares its clock tower as they pound back and forth the long alley- way that leads to their lairs. Others will soothe their troubled souls with music on the Capehart. The movie columnists, us- ually followed by a long line of fellow cinemad- dicts, will trek to see the latest Flick at one of the local cinema palaces. The Levy, Newhouse, et al bridge game will take up where it left off the night before at two o ' clock. The evening may or max not be peaceful. The traditional rivalry be- tween the occupants of rooms 1346 and 1347 is liable to flare up at any moment. Doug Warner usually has the York Street entry quiet and well in hand. Though one eve- ning, after the Christmas party in the Master ' s House, his grip seemed to be failing when the entry was suddenly trans- formed into a foaming, thrashing Niagara as Bob Keating, Deane Evans, Moo Macomber and cohorts let the college know that the Christmas vacation was drawing near. Some evenings, stray undergraduates fall into our York Street moat, from which thev are res- 142 cued in gallant fashion by Mr. Tinker. But as the Daven-Pierson clock shows nine, most of the rooms will be quietly occupied for an evening ' s study, interrupted only by the traditional eleven o ' clock trek of night-owls for a hasty snack. If it were some other day than the rather generalized one which has been described so far, one would mention the annual college banquet held every fall before the Thanksgiving holiday. It is then that you will hear Mr. Tinker giving one of his brilliant speeches on the tradition of Yale, and Mr. Simonds wittily pointing up the importance of music as a bond of international friendship, and Mr. Tuttle stressing with sym- pathetic understanding the essential unity be- tween the older and younger generations. The Whiffenpoofs will sing, the tables will be lit by soul-soothing candle light, the beer will flow copiously, and an aura of genial contentment will settle over all good Davenport men. Or one might speak of the traditional Senior Christmas Party in the Master ' s House. Here you will find Santa Claus Tighe reaching deep into his gift-laden bag to pick out an appropriate present for each and every member of the class. Jim Phillips receives a rattle with which to amuse himself on his trips with the squash team. To Eric Swenson goes an intimate souvenir of happy hours in Poughkeepsie. Mr. Tinker is the recipi- ent of The Night Before Christmas, which he proceeds to read with particular relish and enjoy- ment. Mr. Pottle tells of the tale of Dangerous Dan McGrew while Mr. Wiggin, our member of the bar, amuses the assembled multitude with his famed guttural poetry. Mr. Lohman renders a few melodramatic, nineteenth-century ballads and Newbold Noyes plaintively recounts the tale of how the Titanic went down. However this is not the night of the annual college banquet or of the traditional Christmas party, but rather a typical evening that a stray wayfarer from one of Yale ' s outlying residential colleges might encounter were he to walk through Davenport ' s Georgio-Gothic York Street portals. The sun will have long since set over the Yale Drama School. Edward, the dog, will be curled asleep, peacefully relieved of his mistresses ' attention. Bob will have begun to take up his roving watch between Davenport and Pierson. Movies, string quartets, Christmas parties, cur- rent events, and music will have all been tem- porarily forgotten. The Davenport spirit will have finished its diurnal cycle.

Jonathan Edwards Class of 1720 FACED with a world in tur- moil, an utterly unpredicta- ble domestic economy, and the comprehensive examinations, the Seniors of Jonathan Edwards College in this year of nineteen- hundred and forty-one are often heard to exclaim, WOW. No one can say this hasn ' t been a good year for J. E. athletics. The football team, ably captained by Mac Monroe, and peopled with such Titans as Doc Maltby, W. LaPierre Westen, Al Free, and others, emerged from the doldrums of the previous season and turned in an entirely rea- sonable number of victories. Dave Aron ' s excel- lent basketball team surprised even the most con- fident among us. Abetted by Harold Whiteman, Jim Newmyer, Sandy Dietrich, and friends, this capable outfit annihilated most competition. Phil Stevens, with little material available to him, was able to gather a hockey team in time to beat Branford and preserve the time-honored J. E. tradition of outclassing the Towermen on or off the ice. She has a strange sweetness in her mind, and singular purity in her affections . . . and you could not persuade her to do anything wrong or sinful, if you would give her all the world. Jonathan Edwards Class of 1720 Socially this has been a happy season for the sons of the Great Awakener. The large-scale ac- tivities of a certain underground organization known widely as The Cork Club of Jonathan Edwards College, (Qui bibet sustinet, Turrets for ladies) provided a term-wide gamut of week-end parties (pro- tracted to the point of overlapping) all through the fall season. Football games, musical events, hockey matches, basketball, or what have you all furnished the necessary excuse to introduce Mademoiselle into the confines of our cultural preserve. The climax was reached on the twenty- eighth of February when the Junior Promenade turned our dining hall into a combination of the best features of the Junior League and the Min- sky casting office. Even as this is being written, great reserves are being set up, financial and distillate, in anticipa- tion of the forthcoming Regatta Day. ' think that I shall never see . . . 146 You probably are not sensible of this. Jonathan Edwards, Class of 1720 Much good music might have been heard in Jonathan Edwards during the past season. A series of programs running through the winter term brought regular Sunday-evening recitals to the college and its guests, attracting a progression of ever-increasing audiences. The new phono- graph, as yet too complicated for the use of any troll who happens to have a record, has been tested in several intimate recitals of classical recordings and seems generally satisfactory. Eventually, the college hopes to build a large record library. Clutter chatter Derby daisies Other musical high spots include the tradi- tional Gilbert and Sullivan Opera starring the golden voices of Beekman Cannon, Beecher Ben- net, and a large cast of undergraduates. Mr. Bates is also deeply involved in the proceedings. Mr. Cannon directed some excellent chorale sing- ing at the Christmas dinner. Between traditional comestables, traditional music, traditional Gothic, and traditional exchange of presents, it would have been an altogether traditional evening had not this writer been seated next to the thoroughly un-traditional five-year-old daughter of one of the fellows of this college. They say there is a young lady in New Haven who is beloved of that great being who rules the world. Jonathan Edwards, Class of 1720 Of all the interesting people who have visited 147 Spiders in moleskin New deal Jonathan Edwards College during the past season, surely no one showed more sympathy and en- thusiasm than did the first lady of the land, Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt. The President ' s wife was entertained at a small dinner in the Fellows ' Room, dining, presumahly, on typical dining-hall fare. Before dinner, Mrs. Roosevelt inspected the main dining room and the kitchens where the food is prepared, probably learning the answers to some of the questions that have been bothering a lot of us. She concluded her New Haven sojourn by addressing a sizable gathering at the Law School Auditorium. Our imagination makes us imagine that we see shapes, and colors, and magnitudes, though no- body is there to behold it. Jonathan Edwards, Class of 1720 Internal social life here revolves around the beer party, an institution of ever-growing popu- larity. During the winter months, an informal Mother and son get-together-over-brew was held every Wednes- day evening. The gaiety was somewhat acceler- ated by the resounding rendition of popular dance music by our new phonograph. It has also been noted that celebrants are increasingly apt to find duets, trios, quartets, quintets, sextets, and brigades among their number, and this new ten- dency toward song, however alarming it may be to musically sensitive persons, is nevertheless pleasing to the great majority. But yet, Sir, I am assured that the chief end of this faculty, that is given them, is not their recreation, but their destruction. Jonathan Edwards, Class of 1720 The faculty of Jona- than Edwards College can rest assured that it never inspired these apoplectic lines from the pen of the Great Awakener. Ours is a truly unique college among the colleges in that here not only are our men the leaders of their respective fields, but they are further possessed of the God- given gift of whittling themselves down to boy- size, wielding a stein, and talking to anybody about anything. When it pleased God to seize me with a pleu- risy ; on which he brought me nigh to the grave, and shook me over the pit of hell. Jonathan Edwards, Class of 1720 Bermingham steal 148 Spring term is perhaps pleasantest in J. E. Beer parties, afternoon teas, and general recreation move en masse out of doors. Under the watch- fulness of Harkness Tower and Pfaffner, even the traditional college grinds leave their books and disport themselves inoffensively on the lawn. Another attractive feature of spring and its con- comitant, Daylight Saving time, is the prospect of after-dinner walks while the light of day yet lingers. Contemplation comes naturally strolling amid Gothic shadows under the load of a good dinner. It is also notably easier to get up in the morning when seven o ' clock has all the warmth and illumination of ten-thirty, and Marty, lean- ing against the outer gate, has to say Good morning 167 times before he has had a real chance to digest his breakfast. Ultimately it must be allowed that Jonathan Edwards College is possessed of its keen spirit of fellowship, genial informality, and authentic school spirit because it is steeped in the all-per- vasive vitality of Professor and Mrs. Robert D. French. To them and to the members of the Fac- ulty who share their responsibility, the Class of ' 41 extends all admiration and enthusiasm. Even cloistered, we of Jonathan Edwards have sensed the enormity of things without, and turned our heads and hearts to the peace and security of the inner court. They say ours is an ivory tower and that books and paintings and all the ideals that mean our lives are passing into dis- favor in this universe. From hence we may see the gross mistake of those who think material things the most sub- stantial beings, and spirits more like a shadow ; whereas, spirits only are proper substance.

The Senior group was gone, and the Juniors had risen to fill their shoes, quite uncertain of their ability to act the dignified part. The Sophomores coming in seemed bewildered and lost, but one had the feeling that they would soon fit in and become the envy of all Yalemen — Slaves. Al Dill was now head of all college activities, Phil Freeman had his feet planted on the head librarian ' s desk, and Bill Garvey was replacing Bob Weir as athletic secretary. Yes, Pierson had changed. Even the fellows, Mr. Wizner and Mr. Wanning were gone, with Mr. Waith as a newcomer. There was a new crowd in the Casbah, and Mr. Mommsen ' s Waldie had become the proud father of some Dachshund puppies. (Not V, H that anyone suspected the jU new crowd in the Cas- bah!) However, the newness soon wore off — with the aid of the first of the college beer parties. It was held in the dining hall and supposedly featured the Whiffs, but Mr. Nangle vs. Mr. Mommsen in the unlimited chug-a-lugging bout turned out to be the real feature of the evening. The Fall athletic season started almost im- mediately, and the Pierson Football Team, minus the services of Captain Pete Pierson, who was in- volved in Budget work, went to play Taft School under the leadership of Acting Captain Ev Krue- ger. The backfield lacked the proper punch so big Ev decided to shift back into that department himself. From then on, and in most of the other games, he averaged about five yards every time he ran with ball. Pierson won the game with Taft, 7-6, on a pass from Krueger to Chuck Seel- back, the ringer from Trumbull. Early in the Fall, the Pierson Weekly Slave, now in its third year as the oldest college weekly, Grapes of wrath put in its appearance under Editor-in-Chief Phil Freeman. The issues at first missed the humorous cartoons of McMul- len of the year before; then an- swering a college-wide plea for a cartoonist, the Weekly Slave found Bob Peebles, a veritable pearl among swine as far as artists go. With about twenty reporters and feature writers, the Weekly Slave scooped such papers as the Yale Daily News, the Bridgeport Herald, and the New York Times with its three-paged mimeographed edi- tions. A photography contest was sponsored by the paper, and after the final date had been postponed several times to allow the requisite two people to enter, the prize money disappeared. A clever reporter of the Weekly Slave found that Senior Aide Dill had filed it under Gravy in the Student Office. The Herald acknowl- edged the scoop. Then came the Draft with its sobering implica- tions, and sixty-six Piersonites registered. Many others were already in the Army, Navy, or Marine reserves, leaving probably about 100 unregistered. While the students were allowed to register in the Dining Hall, Mr. Mommsen and Mr. Ham- ilton had to go down town to fill out their blanks. Feeling that the new students were not getting to know the older boys and fellows fast enough a student committee re- quested that the fellows institute what soon be- came known as Beer and Cheese Nights. Several fellows would entertain every Wednesday night very informally about twenty or twenty-five students who did not know each other particularly well. Beer, soft drinks, cheese, crackers, apples, etc., were supplied by the fellows, and these little soirees were immensely popular. Mrs. Wolfers held her teas regularly on Tues- 152 Pierson pastimes days and Sundays throughout the year to the de- light of all. She was much more than the charm- ing wife of the Master, she was the inspiration for all the athletic teams — often going out in cold weather to cheer a Slave team on. She called every day at the hospital to visit sick Pierson boys and bring them flowers, candy, and presents. Con- sequently, it is of no wonder that she has won the heart of everyone in Pierson. About the first of November, the first Pierson calamity fell. One of the Slaves brought up on gangster movies and the Dead End influence of Forest Hills reverted to type almost overnight. From a nice, jovial sort of fellow, Mike Rooney became the scourge of Pier- son. Armed with two water pistols, the killer got loose in the Dining Hall and squirted everyone from Mr. Wolfers to the water boy Gunga. The next day, local stores were depleted of their pistol stocks as mob hysteria swept the col- lege. Law and order were finally restored when Molly required all Slaves to check their artillery before being al- lowed to enter the Dining Hall. By this time, the football team had worked up to the final fray with Davenport, and the traditional Beat Davenport rally was to be held. In spite of the light rain that evening, a grue- somely realistic dummy of Homer G. Davenport was hoisted up in the best lynching style and set to blazing while Atlanta Dan Hodgson went wild with joy. After Homer was a glowing ember, the Let ' s be roommates Collegemen heard Captain Krueger say We WILL Win, each word punctuated with long cheers. Then beer in barrels was brought forth and amid cheers and speeches and drinking bouts, the Slaves blackened the name of Bunco Baker, Pierson ' 40, who was coaching the Davenport team this year. Tradition has it that that job is the lowest to which a Pierson man can sink! Then the march to Davenport began, and the cheering, singing sons of Abraham Pierson stormed that place, gave its victory yell, and beat an orderly retreat as pails of water and other signs of disaffection were heaped upon them. Coming back through the alley to Pierson, that time-honored custom was duly fulfilled as flashlight photos took in the scene. That j£ was a rally ! And Pierson L s- won, 12-O. As usual, Pierson men just lived from one party to the next, so the next time Slaves gathered was the Christmas Banquet. With the tables heaped with delicious foods and choice delicacies, with as much flowing red wine as even a Slave could man- age, the repast shattered all precedent. Carols were sung at intervals during the din- ner and then came Santa Pat Deming who proved to be a one-man circus as he passed out gifts. After Christmas vacation, everyone returned to find Benedict Gould and his attractive wife Deborah setting the social tone of the remaining Pierson bachelors. Again mob hysteria broke 153 Big leaguers loose, and Coco Morton and Warren White got married dur- ing the Spring vacation. Winter sports started with a bang as Captain Phil Free- man led his hockey team to the league cellar in the first few games. However, the team, bolstered by Phil Snyder ' s (42), returned from a V-7 cruise, and ready to fight its way up the lad- der, started a three-game win- ning streak, anticlimaxed by a tie game with Davenport. Roger Keefe, who had never seen nets before, tended the goal progres- sively better and starred in the last few games along with Bill Stevens, who was outstanding at defense. The basketball team had a very successful year under Cap- tain Bill McClellan. Pierson led the league from the beginning and won the competition to play the champion Harvard House, but lost first place to T. D. in the very last game. In spite of Captain Charlie Allen ' s efforts, the Pierson swimming team sank to eighth place in league standing. Jim Teevan (swimming five events in one meet), Coco Morton, and Wilbur Cross did most of the scoring on this under- manned team. The Squash ladder was dominated by Mr. Leyburn, who has kept his laurels for several Four of the boy years now. Close behind him was Mr. Flint. If three other fellows would concentrate on the game Pier- son could have a championship team every year regardless of the incoming Sophomores. It seems that women attract the most attention at Yale, for when Mrs. Roosevelt came to visit the Wolfers ' , everyone angled for an invitation to a tea given in her honor. And there was almost a stampede to hear Mrs. Henry Luce (Clare Boothe) when she came to talk at Pierson. The Spring blizzards came and before Pierson men could get away to Florida and Nassau for the vacation, one more of those End All spirit parties was given. Senior theses fin- ished, Winter term over, vaca- tion just ahead — it was the best party of the year. There ' ll be wining Mixed with dining In the Hall. Each and every slave Bac- chante Lapping up his red Chianti. (That ain ' t all!) Monday hang the Easter bunny, Tuesday you be hung with me. Wotta brawl! What will grace these barren tables? What makes bids appear like Grables? Alcohol ! This year for the first time there was music in the Dining Hall. The Music Room opens into the Hall through a window, and the victrola was placed in the window for these programs. The effect of the music was pronounced the first eve- ning it was played. When Strauss waltzes were heard, everyone started to smile, the food tasted better, hash turned into hash an grat ' m , and one waitress, Olive Oil by nickname, started to truck 154 with her tray. When the success was so apparent in spite of the crude facilities, it was decided to inagurate Saturday night programs as a regular feature. With hardly enough time to get a tan and make a conquest, the prodigal Slave drifted back. Spring had come, and with it, Mr. Leyburn ' s presentation of the College Glee Club in the Mikado, which was a great success. Mike Rooney, just recovered from an appendectomy, led his baseball team into battle, while Ken Burgess weighed down his end of the boat as Captain of the Pierson crew. So the Spring term flew by with Court Life reappearing. In the evenings after dinner, boys coming out of the Dining Hall to loaf about and chat, open windows with music pouring forth, Waldie strutting about as king of everything under four inches high, the Pierson tower with its big lighted clock, the green grass and the blue sky ... all were part of that last immemorable scene in Pierson life. We loved it.

B.A. 1889 Frederick Ely Williamson Railroad Executive, B.A., 1898 157 Under the ever-watchful eye of the mythical gargoyle who is reputed to brood over the active life of its residents, Say- brook has been having a fine year. True, Helen has forsaken the Gothic hall for other fields and exuberant Seals may no longer try pot luck with the numbers scrawled on the walls of the old telephone booth, but things have gone on pretty much as usual under the sympathetic mastership of Mr. Smith. The Old Yales of ' 40 who have wandered around the twin courts have found few changes in the smooth flow of Saybrook life. A sturdier table vies with the new telephone in the ping- pong room. Frank grumbles across the street most of the time, while studious Seals bewail his absence and the economy wave which has knocked out those regular two A.M. bull sessions in the Porter ' s Lodge. The Cambridge Ancient History followed the Propylean Kunstgeschichte into a library whose users found it completely re- vamped in setup after the Christmas vacation. But things have not changed much. Seals are found doing about as much studying as anyone else, but they are sure that they know how to re- lax better than their brethren of the other col- leges. The Common Room still has its chess ex- perts who play on in the evenings impervious to the roar of the Philco and Beat Me Daddy Eight to the Bar, the stentorian conversation of Stan Fenelon, and the nightly engagements of the Scuffle Club. A little later on, when the din has died away, one may expect to hear the strains of a Beethoven symphony or a Brahms concerto, gleaned from the library ' s excellent collection of classical records. Over in the Master ' s House the Seals show their preference for evening cakes and ale over afternoon tea by turning up regularly every other Thursday night to discuss with the fellows things of interest to all. Often these informal parties end up with spontaneous singing which carries out into the court. There the close harmony is usually led by Eddie Ocumpaugh, Tru Bradley, and their quartet. The Thanksgiving Party this year featured the games you have forgotten to play. Seals tried their hands at charades and passing clothespins, and proved conclu- sively that the smoking of the vile weed is not compatible with the building of match-piles on bottle- tops. The Christmas Party was notable for Paul Springer ' s mag- nificent rendition of the second- bass Le-la of the traditional Saybrook carol and the introduc- tion of Bill Douglas ' latest ex- periment in hot-buttered-rum. No discussion of Saybrook so- cial life could be complete with- out some mention of Club Saybrook, which thrives under the direction of Howie Selby and his College Committee, and features Russ Smith and his Orchestra. No cover, no minimum, no transfers, and girls invited is the rule. Wash- board Eddie brings down the house every eve- ning with his guttural rendition of 01 ' Man Mose, and the beer is always free to Seals in good standing. This year saw the return of ex-President _iin_r_ un u mi nriwi 1 Sr AY BP.OOK, C O L _ L_ EL G E_ I __ CHEC14 7S3692 1 , SIGNATURE „.JLl ____2_ . .V V. Jf ' ho — but Hoover 158 Hoover on a wild Harvard week end to be entertained by the college and to con- vince the Brookmen that food should be sent to the conquered nations of Europe, while the Chief Aide was reported to have lost his girl in the melee. Mr. Smith ' s infallible in- stinct for picking the big man before he becomes big, ■ s smoke which brought us the un- known Wennel last year, operated again to turn up Colonel Hershey less than a week after he had been appointed temporary administrator of the Draft Law to answer the quietly desperate ques- tions of eligible and lovesick Brookmen. Also heard from were N. L. R. B. member Leiserson, who taught us that the board was trying not to chastise employers, but to lead them in the paths of light; ex-Ambassador to Japan William R. Castle, who maintained with great sincerity that the interests of America and Japan were not in- compatible ; and Messrs. Huxley and Marris, two of Britain ' s representatives in this country, who gave us some of the details of the Em- pire war effort. In another field, Philip Barry discussed with a small group the condition of Broadway and his methods of playwriting. Finally, Mr. Smith again conducted two of his well- known Demonstration Inter- views, showing enthusiastic Seals the employment possibili- ties of two anonymous appli- cants. Under the sponsorship of Barty, the Junior League Glee Club tripped up from New York to combine with three Yale organizations for an eve- ning of song and beer which was topped off by Duke Hen- ning ' s incomparable rendition of Miss Anabelle Birby, and in the course of which Barty him- self took the spotlight for a Gone but not yeodle or two. Another musical forgotten evening was spent with Paul Robeson, who came over after his Woolsey Hall concert to tell us tales of mahem on the football Held and success on the stage and who just had to hum a spir- itual in response to the efforts of various groups of songsters, including the Yale Quartet ' s Rigo- letto parody in which Marty Jenter participated. Hugo Balzo entertained the college in March with a piano recital, emphasizing the works of South American composers. On the athletic side Savbrook ' s fortunes have Conference been varied. Eddie Ocumpaugh ' s foot- ballers looked like champions for a while, but the Temple Street East Side was a little too tough and Pier- son ' s last second pass won them their game with the Seals and locked the two teams in a second-place tie in the final standings. Post-season activity in- cluded a loss to Harvard ' s Winthrop House, in spite of the valiant efforts of Savbrook ' s spectacular band led by Wally Williams wielding both baton and trombone, and Dave Magee on the big bass drum. At the end of the season Wally Gips was given a place on the all-college team for his con- sistently fine play. The touchballers strengthened their grip on last place again this year in spite of the efforts of the football ringers who whipped T. D. The Cross Country artists, led by Dave Coghlan, ran the rest of the field into 159 this spring, if Okie can lure the talent out to the field. Around the University Brookmen can be found in almost any activity. Ray Anderson starred on the Football Team, while Wally Williams rounded out Saybrook ' s three-year monopoly of the Band ' s coveted baton and Jim Woolner man- aged the same organization. Among the politicos, Pundit Jim Houghteling led the Labor Party and elected his candidate for President of the United States. Max Wilk ' s radio play went on the bookstands in a collection edited by Say- brook ' s fellow, Mr. Eaton. Among the items of Saybrookana which will be remembered bv the Seals are the Crockett-Hamel R eatly — ai in ed Fired the ground, and Marty Jenter took the Saybrook tennis championship to finish off the fall pro- gram. The winter term saw Jim Daily ' s basketball team lead the second division, paced by Captain Jim, Johnny Pettit, and Jim McNamara. Rufe Fairchild ' s skaters, featuring Johnny Matthews in the goal and Jack Wilson, Will O ' Hearn, and Gordy Brown, have fought valiantly, if unsuc- cessfully, to pull Saybrook out of its usual second-division berth. Art Hill ' s swimmers ended up in sixth place while the Senior relay team of Hill, Pudge Kemp, Charlie Larus, and Bruce Allen splashed into fifth place in the College Relays. The squash men turned up in eighth place and the bowlers in fifth. So far we have no major championships, but Seals in the know are looking for Rufe Fairchild ' s batters to upset the favorites yeodling contests in Killingworth Court, Jack Wilson ' s potent Prom potion which he alone could down, Bud Myers ' two-hour telephone conversations, Ken Bosee ' s buttonhole lectures, Bob Halliday ' s prowess in water sports, and Charley Larus ' four-year major in Hartford. Also of importance was the day on which Sweeney took a wife and the one on which Jack Gormley had his run-in with the lady driver. Frank Cala- han has the approval of the owl of York Street and the votes of his classmates for the honor of being the second biggest clown in Yale. But then, who else but Frank would think of the York Street moat as a suitable jumping pit? Saybrook has had a fine year, but it has its moment of sadness when it contemplates the re- tirement at the end of the year of its famed wit and scholar, Johnny Berdan, whose daily themes 1 60 have produced so many big names in the literary world. There is not much more to be said about the inhabitant of the little office in Whitney Entry, now that the NeivSj the New York Times, and many other publications have eulogized him. Saybrook will remember him for his Presi- dent ' s Party skits and his prologues to the Settlers ' Day comedies. It will remember him, too, as the friend beneath whose penetrating wit and sweeping condemnations of college men was found the real understanding and the constant desire to help the undergraduate in solving his p roblems. This is typical of the vigorous and in- formal atmosphere of the college itself. Like all who have known him, Saybrook wishes him the best that retirement can give after a long and en- viable career.

Gone was the old Van-Sheff ball park and the hallowed ground where the Sheff men burnt their derbys; gone were the old Grove Street cliff dwellings that had known the Eli joie de vivre, and in their place we had the newest and finest of Yale ' s residential colleges, composed of Georgian, French Renaissance, and pseudo- Gothic architecture. This sounded like a dismal beginning for the Sala- mander to be, who heard these vague rumours over the summer, but he remained brave and strong and boldly stalked into New Haven at the end of September, prepared to meet his fate. In the first week things were a little hectic; the contractors had hardly finished removing the old television sets and putting the last touches on the Byers ' landing field when the horde of Salamanders arrived. The first week passed with the regular routine of adjustment; signing con- tracts and taking in the latest feelie at the Roger Sherman, and then came the time for rapture or criticism. We found our new home to be architecturally sound. The new Georgian buildings blended gracefully with those of Timothy Dwight ; the flagstone walks crossing the campus and the splendid landscape gardening lent to it an atmosphere of security and repose ; indeed the last of Vale ' s colleges deserved the title of a ma gnificent piece of work. But this was not all that was needed for Silliman ' s success. We had at the start neither organization nor tradition and there was a tremendous task before Professor Northrop, the Fellows, and the senior leaders of the college. Organization of all the activities was almost immediate ; Captain Schuller ' s football team was soon gamboling on the green ; touch- football, fall squash and tennis had soon acquired a respectable following, and we even found hot water in the showers. Barry Zorthian, with pre- vious experience in Davenport and sports-writing for the News, showed his ability in the task of athletic secretary, doing a splendid job from the start — and still having time to maintain his standing with the fair sex.- — Tradition came next with the regular Monday night Fellows banquet, preceded by the grace formerly said by Professor Silliman, and the christening of the now-famous powder room, a replica of the lounge in Radio City. At the end of the football season we discovered that a friendly rivalry had grown up between us and our wily neighbors, the Prexies, over the 164 j rjH w ,■ ff3i ■M k f U IB Mm - 1 L J i Let ' s go, fellows much coveted O ' Toole cup, presented for su- premacy in Prexie-Salamander athletic doggrel. ' ' The Rogersmen barely overcame the Salamanders for this coveted trophy in football — but we were young men and had barely come into our own. As the year went by, how- ever, we discovered that we were living in a den of athletes. As this is being written the Silliman ath- letes through the winter have worked up to second place in the race for the Tyng trophy. Captain Bannard paced his rac- quetmen to an undefeated season here, as well as conquering Harvard ' s Kirkland House. Dixie Dunbar kept his pucksters at the top of the intercol- lege circuit to wrest a sec- ond place in the league, while the bowlers and boxers captured cham- pionships. To pass the se- cret of our success on to any who should read these words, we invite an inspection of Barry Zor- thian ' s telephone list, on which you would find the names of many eminent Salamanders, signed Gentleman Student for calls to Smith, Vassar, Connecticut College, and even that intellectual insti- tution, Bryn Mawr, so that it has become quite evident that love is our secret — and the fame of entry M (or any entry — en passant). We notice the Salaman- der trail also wound through the intricacies of extra-curricular activities on the campus. Bubbles Beck Bronson fills the columns of the News with the local gossip and latest flicker analysis. The Dramat has taken its greatest female impersona- tor from our ranks, Georgie-Ann Schreiber, as well as its next year ' s president, Claude Douthit ; and we are proud of our athletes who uphold the Eli name and the honor of the senior class, like Champion puckster Rog Hazen and baseballers Jack Schroeder and Jake Dore. Last year the News predicted that Silliman would become a center of philosophy and learning under the guiding hand of Professor Northrop. It is not that, but it has certainly established its place in the college intellectual sphere. Professor Rivaled Mory ' s Gave T. D. a scare and Mrs. Northrop, by cheerful and friendly care, have fostered the spirit of friendship and pride in our college. We have greatly enjoyed the wonderful teas and banquets at the Master ' s house and the kindness of Mrs. Northrop in entertaining our Prom dates and friends. This friendly spirit has become a part of Silli- man now. It is common for visitors, who come to dine in our spacious hall, to see the Fellows and students eating together — and trying to solve Marshall Hall ' s Mathematical problems (on which, we are told, he has won gigantic sums) or discussing art with Mr. Rathbone. To those who are distantly interested in Silli- man, we give the incidental intelligence that we have five squash courts, a dark room, a workshop, ping-pong and game rooms, a printing press, and a sound-proof music room. These are sufficient for the talents and hobbies of the Salamander as well as encouraging all other types of activities. From all this one can readily see that diversity is the keynote for the brilliant start and successful year that we have known so far. Here a man has the opportunity to get, in every respect and in all fields, the most out of college by meeting every type of student, by knowing the faculty and, by attending the Monday night after dinner dis- cussion groups, learn the full extent of their research. A greater part of the University probably knows that Professor Silliman, the first Curator of the Yale Art Gallery, was a great scientist and devoted his life to a study of the relation of sci- ence to the humanities, and for that reason if he should return to view the college of his name, he would not only be pleased with what he saw, but proud that his college was carrying on his phi- losophy and proud that the Master was an emi- nent philosopher who was also devoting his life to the relation of science and philosophy. When we look back on all the excitement and diversity of activity in our college we realize that the three flames on the Coat of Arms are truly significant. In October, 171 1, Joseph Addison The kiny ' s horses ami king ' . 166 wrote in the Spectator paper that a Salaman- der . . . treads upon fire, and lives in the midst of flames without being hurt. The modern Sala- mander lives in a fire of joyful activity, of intellectual pursuits, of friendship, of cheerful society, of everything that makes for complete- ness in college life ; we know that the flames will never hurt him, but perhaps supply a warm glow of happiness to become a source of delightful retrospect in the years to come.

On the sixteenth of Octo- ber most of the members of the Senior class found that the lounge had temporarily been converted into a military headquarters where registration for selective service was taking place. Since that day little of the fuss and fanfare of the European war has gotten past the ever watchful Bob. Nevertheless, Senators Brew- ster and Jackson have often been seen on opposite sides of the dinner table holding down opposite sides of the presidential election or the Lease- Lend Act. In good evidence that Timothy Dwight has come to be the center of the Yale Universe is the Class of 1 94 1 takes its sorrowful leave in June. Under Bob Cooke ' s captaincy the football team won the intercollege championship as well as the final game with the champion of the Harvard houses. This has become another Timo- thy Dwight tradition, which should remain unbroken next year. In the other intercollege sports there have been similar successes, but the important thing has been the great amount of pleasure col- lege members in large numbers have been able to derive from the competitions. Many pleasant memories have been afforded by this last year in Timothy Dwight. The election- eve beer party was instituted by Mr. Rogers and was nonetheless enjoyable because of the results. Guest speakers at the periodical college dinner- beer parties were always good, but the evening was never complete unless the Master soloed As Freshmen First We Came To Yale. All of us recognize Mr. Rogers ' s great renditions of the song, and this phase of the college dinner will perhaps linger longest with us. Other aspects of the year spring to mind. Not least of these is the great vulnerability of Timo- thy Dwight men to Cupid. Several members of the college became engaged and others took the final step, changing their residence from the col- Tivo with lemon completion of Silliman Col- lege. Already there has grown up a rivalry between the two newest arrivals, the results of which are shown by T.D. ' s possession of the famed O ' Toole Cup for athletic prowess. Further proof of the Prexies in- trepidity is the large collec- tion of silverware which graces the center tables in the dining hall. Chances look more than good that even the Tyng Cup will not leave the college when the Unlax 170 Yellow press lege to Whitney Avenue. The regularity of the Toivn Hall Bulletin and the irregularity of the Weathervane couldn ' t help but make an impres- sion; the fire in Brewster and Jackson ' s room was an interlude ; Janet ' s leaving the college was a loss ; the numerous week-end parties were always diverting. These features of college life have been the obvious things, but they, combined with the smaller, more everyday happenings in Timothy Dwight, serve to make up the life of the college. With traditional gaiety and exuberance the Prexies had their Christmas dinner. Dr. Hag- gard as Santa Claus and two sad-eyed helpers distributed the suggestive presents and kept the entertainment lively. Loomis Havemeyer and Oggie Miller on the carpet being inspected by Santa Claus as the draft officer will always be re- membered. After the Christmas party came the annual Plaster Celebration at the end of January. Carl Sandburg was the principal guest, and he delighted the college with his banjo playing, sing- ing, and friendly stories. Dr. Angell spoke to the college, and Carl Lohman gave a singing history of Yale songs. This year, as in years past, ever since the unfortunate occurrence, the falling of the plaster was properly commemorated. We all remember Field Day when we cavorted around at Dr. Haggard ' s farm in Woodbridge. The tender steaks cooked Western style, the beer, the endless Good Humors, and the ball games are not easily forgotten. Likewise we bring to mind the Derby Day lawn party in the courtyard. The play and the novelty of the affair served to keep the spirit of the day well in mind. Of all the qualities which contribute to make Timothy Dwight a distinct and distinguished unit nothing has played a greater part than the affectionate and kindly personal interest of Mr. and Mrs. Rogers in the college members. Always Sports interlude Faites attention! the Master ' s house has ex- tended a warm welcome to the college. It has been a center for friendly discus- sions around the Sunday- afternoon tea table, and has seen frequent parties for the undergraduates. The college is indeed fortunate in having Mr. and Mrs. Rogers ' helpful inspiration, and to them the greatest amount of the atmosphere of the college is due. Also of much value to 171 the whole college is the active and stimulating interest which the Fellows have shown in Timo- thy Dwight affairs. Through contacts with them in the dining hall we have had the opportunity for close friendships and the benefits of their con- tributions to scholastic thought. Mr. Griswold ' s explanation of the Far-Eastern crisis, Dr. Hag- gard ' s startling revelations, and Mr. Philips ' jolly conversation have all been a part of the Timothy Dwight scheme. Throughout the year progress has been made in r % ' $ JUL Wl H Hfl ASK v™ ' ■ . |b Yuletide spirit the subterranean activities of the college. The print shop has turned out some masterly products such as Christmas cards and banquet menus, and work in the newly equipped dark room and work- shop has been carried on by all interested mem- bers. Our library and music collection have been augmented by innumerable additions, many of which have been made possible by Timothy Dwight ' s unique Mott Wooley Memorial Fund. This year the Wooley Fund has gotten seriously under way, and because of the appropriations from it the college has been enabled to acquire many worthwhile things not provided for in ordi- nary allotments. As the end of the final stretch in our college career comes into sight, Timothy Dwight seniors have a prospect novel to recent classes of Yale men. Amidst the pleasantness of a rapidly dimin- ishing number of spring days before graduation we try to drink deeply of our last fling at college life, but in spite of our enjoyment of our Derby Spellbinders Day Lawn Party or Doctor Haggard ' s Field Day we have not been able to escape the feeling of uncertainty towards our future courses. A good many of us will exchange our caps and gowns for uniforms as soon as commencement is over, while others of us only await our call by local draft boards. In a sense we are thankful that we have been able to enjoy a full four years at Yale while the terms of fol- lowing classes undoubtedly will be frequently interrupted for military service. Members of the class of 1941, especially those of us who were fortunate enough to be admitted to Timothy Dwight College, have indeed been lucky. From this vantage point it looks as though we were the last class in an era — we have spent all but a few months of our college lives in an at- mosphere free from the uncertainties of war, Shadrach, Meshach, Abednego we have been able to fol- low our chosen educational paths without any thought of insecurity to dampen our enthusiasm, and for the most part we have bathed in the sunshine of academic life. After us there must come breaks in the under- graduate ' s college career as well as the constant need for adapting the student to the preparation for military life. Abrupt as the change must be, it will be met and incorporated into the uni- versity system, but it will demand a modified scheme of student life. With these prospects before us we can not es- cape feeling even more attached to the unspoiled life led in Timothy Dwight, we can not escape recalling all the pleasant episodes that have filled o ur years as Prexies, and we can not escape our pride in the new hub of the university. New in age but old in spirit, Timothy Dwight has given Champions all to us a fuller life at Yale. It has been a source of constant enjoyment and a place for good friends. In doing this it has imparted to us a loyalty and a tradition that is close to the spirit of Yale, and which in the years to come will never leave us.

The rich and ribald atmos- phere of Trumbull has produced its traditional number of cap- tains. Al Bartholemy will lead the boys in blue triumphantly across the gridiron in the coming 1941 football classics. The bas- ketball leader, Johnny Cobb, has surrendered his title to Chuck Seelbach after having led his team to a Big Three Championship. Heavyweight wrestling champion Larry Pickett wields his brawn in our Gothic Halls. We are singular in having the leader of an unofficial team (Ski) in Gayle Aiken. These are just the captain- cies, needless to say the players in these and nu- merous other sports are virtually unlimited. Our athletic prowess has not caused social life to be neglected. At the Master ' s house Mrs. Warren ' s delightful teas and buffet suppers play a definite part in the social scheme of every Trumbullian. The Common Room is the scene of much activity ; some people even play the piano until threatened with chastisement. One of the greatest beauties of Trumbull is its spacious campus. This fine yard is bordered by the large Gothic windows of the Li- brary which were placed there as a backstop for footballs and baseballs. This yard represents the great outdoors to many Elis. Here there may be seen a vigor- ous game of touch football or a sparkling game of baseball. We have even seen people attempting a bit of skiing on the rather too horizontal surface. Also this fer- tile field provides an inexhaustible supply of snow to be hurled into open windows of entries F, B, and H. However, for ammunition and safe posi- tion the balcony in entry K is the best location — or used to be until a snowball aimed harmlessly at a passer-by lit at Dean Warren ' s feet. The Trumbull green raises several fine blades of grass each year. These hardy shoots are egged on by the cavorting of the sportsmen in them. Several speakers have come to educate and or make merry with us. John Kieran Sr. came to be amazed by Toot Farr ' s proficiency at chug-a-lug. Michael MacDougal gave us lessons in card ma l 1 $ , Five dollars for best caption tricks. We understand that dextrous manipula- tion of the evil paste boards has since been used in certain bridge games held in certain rooms facing the main court. Commander H. L. Seward delivered a timely talk entitled Ships and More Ships. Before we were again impressed by war talk Guns and or Butter by Professor Philip Warnette we had the pleasure of hearing the Orpheus and Bacchus singers Orph and Bach for us during dinner at Prom week end. Then to a lot of us had the pleasure of filling in draft cards in the Common Room! The Christmas Party of Trumbull which cele- brates the natal day of its ancestor, Jonathan Trumbull, was a gay mad thing. The speeches were interesting and also we had steak. Numerous little adventures have occurred within these hallowed walls. Trumbull made the headlines by a cigarette-in-sofa fire. There was some sort of a fire extinguisher incident about which Uncle Russ Bradley might be consulted. The Trumbullian under the capable leadership of Charlie Aschmann has noted the years events and has as well provided intellectual stimula- tion for the more intelligent members of the college. Trumbull ' s titanic triumphs in the realm of college athletics might fill a book. Inspired to victory by Captain Lev Ahrens the Touch Foot- ball Team was undefeated all year. The regular team led by Hughes Sheppard did not do so well. Charlie Bick ' s swim- mers were for the second year in a row undefeated except by a Harvard team which really doesn ' t count be- cause it was held the week end after the Prom ; and some of the boys had broken training during the festivities which were floating around. The Hockey Team, captained by Bob Bradley, did better this year than last. Unfortunately, we have a rec- ord of the Basketball Team. Cap- tain Lev Ahrens and his boys were only able to net one victory out of nine games. Of course the reason for this is that Trumbull ' s men were all so good that they made the var- sity and there was little other ma- terial left in the college. Millard, Daily, Kennard and Aschmann captured points for Trumbull in the Intercollege boxing matches. Mueller, Smith, and Kieran did the same in the wrestling matches. Oggie Miller, the A. A. head, presided over the athletic banquet at which time Trumbull re- ceived the cups she had won in swimming and touch football. In the forecasting department, as we go to press, are the crew and baseball teams. Potentially, Tom, Dick and Heir 177 Captain Pete Tater informs us the Trumbull nine is second only to the Yankees. We have every reason to believe this is true. The crew- led by Jim Furniss may duplicate last year ' s vic- tories, again it may not, but it will bring health to McWilliam and sun tan to the rest. The traditional Spring Play (tradition started last year) is to be held the day before the great Derby Day. While the cast is not definite at press time A Girl to Order will be directed by Frank McWilliam and will star such luminaries as Hank Woodward, Charlie Aschmann, and Ed Coleman. The party that this dramatic triumph will induce will add to the lovely liquid — I mean placid enjoyment of Derby Day. In the Record poll Smith and Vassar were voted as more popular with Yalemen than Con- necticut College. Here in Trumbull, at least from what we have been able to ascertain, Con- necticut is far and away the most popular. Mr. Willard Van Houghten, who became a fellow of Trumbull last year, is now as much a part of it all as Mr. Russell Bradley whose un- ceasing efforts have done much to make Trum- bull the happy place that it is. Despite occasional attentions to the gate near Yale Station the old sport of climbing over it continued until one fine day after vacation we dis- covered that a grill work had been put up. Never more will the Trumbull poem: Never climb over the gate when drunk Results would be quite drastic For well we know, though we are stunk Our anatomy ' s not elastic be true. Some geniuses performed a mammoth engineer- ing feat and, after one of the larger snowstorms, blocked off the small court ' s tunnel to the Dining Hall. Harvard week end some exuberant spirits piled up all the bicycles in one of the courts. Trumbull has continued to entertain the fair sex not only on the big week ends but on the off week ends, during the week, and occasionally at breakfast. During the course of the year some of our members have studied. We have a few Phi Betas and Sigma Xis to attest this fact. After October at al- most any time a loud string of profanity could be heard to issue from some room. It was safe to presu me that Uncle Sam had selected an- other unwilling but stal- wart lad to fill in the ranks of the army. This year, somehow, the Little Man ' s coat of paint was neglected. We hope this deplorable omission will be remedied next year. We have it on good authority, which must be kept concealed for obvious reasons, that a pet frog was kept in one of the rooms for three months. Those misanthropes amongst you who Took Trumbull by storm Gay blade 178 think inventive genius has perished from the earth will be surprised to learn that it has blossomed once again and right within these walls. One of our number has fixed up an arrangement whereby his alarm clock dumps a glass of water on him from a shelf over his head and, so, wakes him up in the morning. The leaders and brains of the band both for this year and next are Trumbullians. Gordie Munweiler has tossed the baton to Larry Schafer. The formation planner et al was none other than — but I know Tiny Small ' s egregious modesty would cause him to forbid me to put his name in print. It is fitting that we mention the election of Al Bartholemy to the Junior Prom Committee where he did much to make the gala event a suc- cess. No less important will be Howie Knight ' s presence on the Senior Prom Committee. A certain well cared for bicycle was unaccount- ably found in a certain sophomore bed. One of the saddest things to come our way was the news of the prospective installation of park- ing meters before our hallowed home. One dark night an alarm bell went off at one of the local clothing stores (we are subsidized, therefore no name) which awakened Trumbullians. How- ever, nothing was stolen or burned, so there was no real cause for excitement. Now as we turn to bid these Gothic towers good-bye we leave a fervent prayer that the incoming Bulls may be as fine a group as we were. So we close with the immortal words of a Trum- bullian : Be it ever so humble There ' s no place like Trumbull.

Football 10SING to Harvard in the Bowl, 28-0, the -i 1940 football team rang down the curtain on the most disastrous season in Yale ' s long grid- iron history. High on spirit, but woefully low on man power, weakened by an ever-growing list of injured key men and reserves, battered on suc- cessive Saturdays through a suicide schedule. Captain Hal Whiteman ' s eleven lost seven and beat only Dartmouth. From start to finish the season was dismal with bright spots few and far between. Beginning fall practice later than any other major eleven in the country, the Pondmen were well off-form when they met Virginia in the schedule opener, and throughout the season the squad was invari- ably several jumps behind its opponents in the vital factors of physical conditioning, team play, blocking and tackling. Undaunted Only at times did the team function as smoothly as the caliber of its opponents required, and only infrequently did the Blue rise to spectacular heights as a unit. Individually Whiteman and Al Bartholemy were the only consistently outstand- ing players. Yale showed the spirit requisite to good teams, but spirit alone was not enough to stay the power, speed, and all-around superior strength of its victors. A new football coaching regime takes over for 194.1. Dr. Emerson W. Spike Nel- son, a University of Iowa graduate and Eli line coach for two years, succeeds Ducky Pond, his selection breaking the old graduate-coach tradi- tion. Nelson retained Ivy Wil- liamson, end coach under Pond for seven years, and Dave Col- well and Marvin W. Preach- er Franklin of the Freshman staff. The new men give a 18? Filled Kelly ' s shoes mid-western tinge to the coaching setup: Edward E. Blue Howell, one time All-American full back at Nebraska will coach the backfield, and comes to Yale after three years at L.S.U. in that capacity. John P. Sabo, former Illinois halfback and end, served as head coach of football, basket- ball, and baseball at Vermont from 1934 to 1939. W. Robert Voigts, tackle on the Northwestern elevens of ' 36, ' 37, and ' 38, rounds out the staff. He has been line coach of football and head coach of baseball and basketball at Illinois Wesleyan for the past two years. The 1940 season was one great debacle. But there is every indication that the 1941 eleven, captained by Al Bartholemy, may turn the tables on those who have consigned Yale to the pigskin junkheap. Nelson has revived the winter prac- tices in the gym with remarkable success. Held twice a week and averaging forty players a workout, the sessions have revealed tremendous spirit among the candidates as they absorb the fundamentals of Nelson ' s modified T and wing- back system. An ambitious and intensive five- week spring practice is planned. Unless the draft debilitates the squad, and barring injuries and scholastic difficulties to key men, there is certain to be an amazing rejuvenation evident on the gridiron next fall. A good crop of Sophomores will be on hand from the Freshman eleven which won four and tied two games in its six-game schedule, and with a nucleus of thirteen return- ing lettermen, it will be a mistake to sell Yale short. Virginia had been waiting two years for this game, and they went all out in the process of winning the season ' s opener in the Bowl on Oc- tober 5. Completely outclassing and outsmarting Clicked 184 Out of the ozone, into the end zone the Elis, the invading Cavaliers showed a re- sourcefulness and speed that was not to be denied, while the Pondmen revealed a deplorable weak- ness in blocking with hardly six running plays functioning well from the interference standpoint. The Elis held the whip hand in the first quarter, with Hovey Seymour battering his way to a touchdown, but in the second period the Cavaliers unleashed a dazzling passing attack, sparked by Bill Dudley, which netted one touchdown. In the third period Virginia really went to town with their aerial blitzkrieg, and chalked up two scores. Bartholemy took two passes from Billy Bell, good for a net gain of ninety yards and a touch- down in the last quarter, but Yale could do no more, and the score ended with the Southerners on the long end of the 19-14 count. Pennsylvania ' s power-drunk squad ran rough- shod over the Blue on Franklin Field October 12, crushing Yale as it had never been crushed before in the sixty-nine years of its gridiron record. Shuttle Weakened by the absence of Hovey Seymour and Ray Anderson from the lineup and playing oppor- tunist football from the kickoff, Yale saw their passing attack boomerang time and again as the Quakers took interceptions and galloped for touchdowns. The juggernaut Penn machine rolled over and through the Bulldogs, never letting up their irrestible attack, and Yale was continually forced with its back to the wall. Whiteman played beautiful defensive football, and Ted Har- rison provided the offensive spark of the after- noon. Incongruously, the best play of the day was Yale ' s scoring spree : standing on his own 24-yard line, Harrison whipped Bartholemy a pass, who scampered down the sidelines, and was about to be caught by Dutcher, when he later- ailed to Billy Bell, who hit pay dirt. It was the only time the Elis functioned at all. Yale ' s sole victory of the campaign came on October 19 when the Elis, playing at peak strength and functioning as a unit and individu- ally at their season ' s best to date, refused to submit to a tie with the Indians from Hanover and pushed over the winning touchdown with 25 seconds left to play in the final quarter. Ray Anderson tallied first in the opening period, and Seymour converted. The second quarter saw Yale ' s line, playing brilliant defensive ball, make one of the famed old Bulldog goal-line stands, holding the invaders on the i-yard line. The In- dians scored in the third period, and knotted the count at 7—7. Al Bartholemy provided the high- lights of the game in the final quarter and, in catching two seemingly impossible passes for sub- stantial gains and setting up the winning score, reminded one and all of Larry Kelly. Jack Reid took the scoring pass from Ted Harrison, giving Yale a well-earned victory. Navy brought two first-rate elevens into the Bowl on October 26, and when the debris had been swept out, had departed for Annapolis with a clean-cut 21—0 triumph to their credit. Clearly Baud oh superior in every department of play, the Middies fielded two teams of equal potency whose drive, power, and general finesse were altogether too much for the Blue eleven. It was purely a de- fensive battle for the Elis, and Hovey Seymour ' s great kicking did much to hold the score down. Al Bartholemy and Hal Whiteman were con- sistently outstanding, but as a team Yale simply could not get going. The statistics tell the story : Navy earned 17 first downs to Yale ' s I, and had a total net yardage gained via the air and land routes of 352 yards, as compared with Yale ' s 24. The memory of Philadelphia was still painfull}, clear, and the Elis tried only six passes. Yale lost to Brown, 6-2, on November 2 largely because the Elis were totally unable to push the ball across the goal line when they were well into Plenty of brass Brunian territory. Once on the i-yard line, three times within the 15-yard stripe, and five times inside the 30, Yale stalled completely when it came to actually scoring. Played in a driving rain which badly hampered any passing attack, the game saw the Eli eleven blocking and running well for the first time in the season. The Blue had all the better of the statistics, and kept threatening till the final whistle, but when it came to notching the scoreboard, Brown ' s Dick High was the only one who could turn the trick. His first quarter ninety-two-yard run after snag- ging an Anderson-tossed pass was the highlight of the game. For Yale, Ray Anderson ' s and Billy Bell ' s running, Hovey Seymour ' s great punting, and Al Bartholemy ' s pass receiving were out- standing, as was Dave Rewick ' s defensive play. Ducky Pond ' s team rose to great heights when it held the nation ' s number one team to a 21— O score on November 9. Cornell ' s well-reinforced eleven had come to New Haven expecting to roll up a huge score, but from the start of the game the Eli ' s defensive drive and fighting spirit astou nded the Big Red team, confusing them throughout the game, and completely upsetting the Snavelian ' s plans. Al Bartholemy and Jock Thompson on the flanks were upsetting Cornell ' s famous end sweeps ; Jim Dern and Cape Burnam were towers of strength in the line; Sophomores Spence Moseley and Jim Potts, backing up the line were consistently brilliant ; while Ted Har- rison ' s and Chuck Willoughby ' s running and passing, and Hal Whiteman ' s savage tackling were a sight for sore eyes. Yale dominated the second half, outcharging and outfighting the dis- tinctly upset Cornellians. The boys from Ithaca won, but the credit went to the players in Blue. Yale lost a heart-breaker to the Tigers in Palmer Stadium November 16, 10-7, beaten via the airways and Dave Allerdice ' s good right arm. The captainless Elis fell before the air-minded Princeton eleven after putting up a brilliant de- fensive fight, and only after interceptions had squelched their own scoring opportunities. Aller- dice pitched his teammates to victory, first on a lightning fast sixty-yard touchdown play in the first period, and late in the game setting up the tie-breaking fieldgoal kicked by Bob Sandbach. Yale bounded back after the first score, and 187 Pigskin express dominated the play from then on, scoring on a Harrison to Willoughby toss with forty seconds to go in the first half. But interceptions held victory off at more than arm ' s length, and a desperate Eli attack in the last two minutes of the game failed when Allerdice pulled a Harrison- thrown pass out of the air. The whole Eli team played superbly, Bob Brooks deserving special mention for his defensive play along with Al Bartholemy. Willoughby, a Sophomore find first seen in the Cornell game, was outstanding offensively. Again captainless, an injury-ridden Eli eleven failed to hit the emotional peak required in a Harvard- Yale game, and succumbed to the Can- tabs in the season ' s finale November 23 in the worst defeat administered to the Blue by Har- vard in years, 28-0. Yale was top dog in the first period, and for a few minutes in the second, driv- ing hard and relentlessly and staging a collective string of five first downs at their best, but from then on the game was in the hands of Dick Harlow ' s men and they romped over the Elis. Cantab Captain Joe Gardella tallied once in the second period, and again in the third after Fran- nie Lee had set the scene with a long run. Lee ' s seventy-nine-yard touchdown run and Charlie Spreyer ' s fine line-plunging drives in the fourth quarter accounted for the Crimson ' s points. Yale had given too much against Cornell and Prince- ton. She had nothing in reserve for Harvard. William Aycrigg Brief interlude Back Rots:: Copp, J. Clark, Chamberlain, Vary, W.

Jayvee Football The Jayvees started this season with a 15—13 triumph against the Pennsylvania B squad on October 12. The Yale attack was sparked by the able work of Cappy Townsend, who passed to Eddy for one Yale score, and converted that into a seven-point lead. A safety against Penn in the third period, added to another touchdown, proved decisive. The following Friday the Greys met Dart- mouth on the Freshman Field and after a score- less first half marked principally by numerous penalties against both teams, the Yale attack began to click and Frank Jones and Ed Towne scored in the third and fourth periods, with Townsend and Vary converting, to give the Elis a 14-0 victory. Two weeks later at West Point the B-rabble gang downed a completely dis- organized Grey Team 21—7 in a comedy of errors. Both teams did everything but wrap the ball in an American flag and kick it into the Hud- son. The only Yale score came late in the final period, long after the lights had been turned on, when Morg Aldrich intercepted a Cadet pass and ran thirty-five yards to the goal line. The collapse presaged at West Point continued to grow, so that both the Princeton and Harvard games found Yale on the short end of the scoring. At Princeton the Greys never got started, and were pushed vigorously about by a well-coached Tiger team ; even when Ralph Sargent careened fifty yards with an intercepted pass for a score in the first period the little bulldogs were unable to find themselves. The game the following week with Harvard ended in a 1 6-6 triumph for the Cantabs. Yale ' s lone score came on a short goal- line pass to Jack White. Despite the vagaries of the season the constant encouragement and devotion shown by Gerry Ford and Bill Renner in their coaching duties through the Fall will be long remembered by the boys in Grey who worked under them. At the end of the season Jerry Greene, who had captained the team against Dartmouth and Harvard, was awarded the Norman Hall Trophy for outstanding service to Yale football by a member of the Jayvees.

Dropping but one game and tying for the League Championship, the Bulldogs lived up to all pre-season predictions. Coach Loeffler put a team on the field whose power and deception re- lt§ll!lt!l!llliii!ii i | 4 Hart ' s Deli lit stored Yale to her respected position in light- weight circles, held so regularly prior to 1937. Playing at Ithaca, the lightweights defeated a highly rated Cornell, 12-7, after a long pass from Krech to Halsey started the offensive roll- ing. At New Brunswick the next week, the team ended a three-year Rutgers winning streak, 12-6. Facing their third consecutive undefeated team, Yale staged two touchdown marches in the first period to defeat Princeton, 12-7. Working very smoothly, the lightweights shook Hart and Krech loose for long runs in the first period but let down somewhat after the half. In this game, however, the Bulldogs showed their gameness as they held hard again and again when the Tigers threatened in the last period. Suffering a mid-season letdown, the team fell before a fighting Villanova eleven, 14-0, the next week, for their only defeat of the season. The loss of Co-Captain Krech with a shoulder injury made this defeat even more costly. However, the team came back the next Friday to trounce La- fayette 27-O in impressive style. The game will be remembered for the four-down stand of the Elis on their own one-foot line and the first conver- sions for points after touchdown in three years. 190 Soccer Playing the best teams in the East, the Yale Varsity Soccer Team completed its first un- defeated season since 1935, with six victories and four ties. The Elis played a tight defensive game throughout the fall, never allowing their op- ponents more than a single score in any game. Most of the ties could have been turned into victories, had the Yale offensive been more effective. The season opened with a 1-0 victory over Springfield. Following this the Elis fought Wes- leyan to a 1-1 tie, despite Yale ' s determined offensive in the last half. The next two games were away from home ; Amherst was defeated 2—1, and Trinity 2-0. The Elis made two more trips away, one to Williams which ended in a I-l tie and one to Pennsylvania, where the Blue won 1-0. Next Yale defeated Brown 2-0 on a rain-soaked, muddy field. Dartmouth was the next foe to face the Elis and this game ended in another I-I tie, due to the aggressiveness of the weaker Dartmouth team. Yale went into their Big Three competition with the Intercollegiate League Championship in the balance. A defeat or a tie would give the Tivin Bill championship to Princeton. The game with the Tigers, after a hardfought overtime, ended a 1-1 tie, thus giving Princeton the League title. Harvard came to New Haven the next week but were no match for the superior Yale team, which easily won 2-0. Outstanding throughout the year were Aron in the goal and the co-captains Brown and Ste- vens at fullbacks, who formed a tight and co- ordinated inner defense. Carton, Hoagland, Cumming, and Captain-elect Haines were con- sistently outstanding. Back Roic: Leeman (Coach), Caulkins, Haines, Gillett, Dangler, Chynoweth, Cumming, Hoag- land, Fagley (Manager). Third Roiv: Carrington, Van Peursem, Aron, Stevens (Co-Captain), Brown (Co-Captain), Aronson, Carton, Milliken. Second Roiv: Keefe, Symes. Front Roiv: Johnson, Hopkins, Gesner, Bruce. 191 Cross Country Malcolm G. Main Robert J. Redington The 1940 Varsity Cross Country Team, han- dicapped from the start by injuries and in- eligibility, went through a rather mediocre sea- son, which, however, was not without its redeem- ing features. Sophomore William Bird was the individual star of the team and will have the honor of being captain next fall as a Junior. Lee Shapleigh and Captain Malcolm Main also de- serve special mention for able performances dur- ing the season. On October 1 1 the season was started at home with a victory over Wesleyan, 25-30 (low score wins). Holmes of the visitors edged out Bird by one second to win, with Shapleigh third and Main fifth. A potent University of Connecticut team came to New Haven the next week to de- feat Yale decisively, 17-41. Wheaton of Connect- icut, in winning, tied the five-mile course record of 27:07 minutes. Bird in fourth place and Shap- leigh in seventh were the first Elis to finish. On October 26, the team soundly defeated M.I.T., 22-39, with Bird finishing well out in front. The following week in Cambridge, Yale lost out in Captain Manager a closely fought Big Three race, the dual meet scores being Harvard 27 — Yale 29, Princeton 2(3 — Yale 29, and Princeton 2(3 — Harvard 29. Bird distinguished himself in taking first place, while Shapleigh and Main finished well up in fifth and eighth places respectively. Mann, Coughlan, Ashton, Fuerbringer, Harris, Fields and Quarles comprised the rest of the team. At Van Cortlandt Park, New York, on November 9, Yale finished a poor sixth in the Heptagonal race, beating out only Columbia. Bird ' s cramp, which kept him from finishing, proved a blow to the Eli hopes. Returning to the same spot for the Intercollegiates nine days later, Yale placed twelfth out of nineteen teams competing. Leslie MacMitchell of N.Y.U. was the individual, and Rhode Island State the team winner. Bird, in fourteenth place, attained the distinction of being the first Ivy League runner to finish. With some fine material coming up from the Freshman team, the prospects for next year ' s sea- son seem unusually bright. Back Row: Redington (Manager), Fields, Mann, Fuerbringer, Quarles.

Hockey The 1 941 Varsity Hockey Team turned in the fine record of a second place in the Quad- rangular League and one of the most successful western trips ever made by a Yale team. Out of the season ' s eighteen games Yale won twelve, tied two, and lost only four. Princeton won the Quadran- gular League by beating Yale and then having Dartmouth tie the Blue, but Yale came back and beat both these teams at the end of the season. The St. Nick ' s proved themselves a good team this year by beating Yale once and playing to a tie in the other game, while the only other defeats came from Minnesota and Williams. Like Caesar ' s Gaul, the Yale season can be divided into three parts. The first of these sections covers the Christmas trip that took the team out to Colorado College for two games and then back to Pete Pierson the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis for a similar series. Prior to this trip Yale had beaten Boston University easily and won from an other- wise undefeated Boston College team, 4—3. The Alumni team returned to put up a gallant fight just before the team went west but again the Varsity won, this time 5-1. Coach Murray Murdoch would have been more than pleased to split games with both Colorado College and Minnesota, last year ' s A.A.U. champions. The result of a clean sweep at Colorado Springs and a split of games with Minne- sota was a splendid accomplish- ment, both for the team and for the rabid Alumni who turned out loyally for all four games. Colo- rado saw the Yale team playing in high altitude after a long train ride, but the first game went into the bag with Captain Pete Pier- 193 Coach ' s dream son ' s last second goal. The game was a close one with the Colorado Eagles holding the lead right up to the end, but Yale put all her pressure into the closing frame to win, 6—5. Bill Wood dis- tinguished himself with two goals and an assist, with Nick Franchot following with two tallies. The second game saw Colorado again in the lead through the second period, and then Yale came to life with five goals in the last stanza. Bill Pike dupli- cated Wood ' s two-goal and one- assist record, but Bill raised it by collecting four points in that second game. The first line teamed up for the finishing goal when Carton passed to Hazen for the second Yale victory. The team was royally enter- tained by Yale Alumni from Colorado Springs and Denver, and on Christmas Day they re- luctantly moved back east again. The first game against Min- nesota saw perhaps the best hockey of the year. Bud Kieck- hefer turned in a great game in the goal, and Yale battled through to a 5-2 win. Le Boutillier opened with a score from the enemy blue line and Minnesota tied the game up soon after. Pierson soloed to score after the Gophers had gone into the lead, and the game stood even in the third period. Carton soloed, then scored again from Pierson ' s assist, and Hazen added the last goal in the closing minutes. The next evening saw Minnesota ahead 5-0 in the second period when Yale began to click. On two goals by Gig Carton and one each from Hazen and Le Boutillier the Yale team moved up to 4-5, and the closing seconds had the crowd on their feet as the Yale team just missed the tying goal. It was hard to drop such a close game but the team turned in four fine games on that trip. The credit goes to the players, who overcame all the handicaps of traveling, and to Murray, who nursed the team along to three vic- tories out of four tries. The Alumni in both sections of the country received the squad with open arms and Murray was able to spread ' i ale hockey far beyond the borders of Connect- icut. The second part of the Varsity history is less fortunate, inasmuch as it contains the Yale losses. Williams beat Yeal, 5—3, in a very disappointing game, but Yale balanced the column bv overcom- Hot moment ' 94 Frustration ing a strong Clarkson team, 3-2. Toland opened the Clarkson game by scoring on a pass from Thompson, with Carton, Hazen, and McLennan teaming up for the other two goals. St. Nick ' s and Yale played a 3-3 tie with Davis, Franchot and Toland scoring in one of the best games of the year, and then Yale routed the 97 Club from Cambridge by 9—5. The next two games caught Yale at a low ebb, for Princeton eked out an overtime victory from Yale in a wide open game, 4-5. In spite of Johnny Le Boutillier ' s three assists, Rog Hazen ' s two goals, and Carl Drake ' s tying score, Yale seemed unable to pull the game out of the fire. The next Wednesday Yale lost to a fine St. Nick ' s team in what was clearly Yale ' s off day. The following Saturday Yale went up to Dart- mouth over the Winter Carnival and slushed to a scoreless tie on very poor ice. This tie resulted eventually in Princeton ' s winning the League, and it was unfortunate that Yale should have had such bad luck with the weather at Dartmouth ' s natural ice rink. Again Bud Kieckhefer turned in a fine game for his second shut-out of the season, with Yale ' s forward lines going frustrated in spite of a number of scoring chances. In the next four games, constituting the last part of the Yale season, the team played a brand of hockey comparable to the western trip stand- ard. Dartmouth was beaten easily, 5—2, in a return game down at New Haven in which Yale clearly showed their superiority over the Hano- ver six by scoring three goals in the last period. The game of the season came the next Saturday before a crowded Arena when Yale beat Princeton, 5-4. The Blue went ahead 4-0 on two goals by Carton and one apiece for Wood and Hazen, only to have Princeton come back to tie the score at 4 apiece. Early in S Ss the last period Le Boutillier passed to Bill Wood for the winning goal, and the teams fought scoreless for the rest of the game. The game was the closest and hardest fought of the season beyond a doubt, and the split with Princeton was very satisfying. The two Harvard games saw Yale winning twice by the same score, 8-2. The first line with Drake ' s help accounted for four goals, and Le Boutillier picked up three points during the course of the game. Two of those points were assists with Bill Wood on the scoring end, and Bill Pike ended the evening ' s events with an unassisted goal in the third period. The second game, up at Cambridge, saw Scotty McLennan pull the three- goal hat trick, and Rog Hazen scored two tallies and two assists to take the Quadrangular League scoring title. Captain-elect Harrison skated the Strategy experts 195 length of the ice for a solo goal, and Burt Mar- tin relieved Meyer in the nets after the latter had played a grand game — so the season closed on a more than pleasant note. The season ' s record showed Rog Hazen leading the League scoring with fourteen points, closely followed by Johnny Le Boutillier in second place with eleven points. McLennan came in sixth place with Carton soon after. This record indicates the fine game that first line played all year, and the entire team ' s consistency can be seen in their high position in total scoring honors, leading the League by three points in totals. The season was a good one for Yale, and Mur- ray Murdoch now finds himself entrenched with a gradually growing record of outstanding teams. Captain Pierson ' s team, the Senior members of And Katie fainted Yale, will go down as one of the bes and the successful western conquest t in history will never which were Sophomores when Murray came to be forgotten.

Swimming The Yale Swimming Team led by Captain Willis Sanburn completed the 1940-41 sea- son undefeated in dual competition, topping this performance by taking eight of the eleven crowns at the Eastern Intercollegiate Championships. In the twelve for- mal dual meets (excluding the Alumni meet) the Yale team took 85 out of a possible 108 first places, and 84 of a like number of seconds, scoring 658J points against 241 2. The season opened with the Franklin and Marshall meet in December. The men from Lancas- ter were easily vanquished, 62-13. The next meet was with an Alumni aggregation and proved an- other victory for the Elis. While the Alumni were weakened with- out the services of John Macionis, two other former captains, Dave Livingston, 35 S., and Russ Dun- can, 40 S., turned in firsts for their ; Sanburn team. The following weekend the Kiphuthmen invaded Philadelphia to hand a poor University of Pennsylvania team a 66—9 defeat. On Jan. 25 Rider College was defeated, 51-24. Army entered New Haven with a team of better caliber than any opposition thus far encountered in the season. In the 50-yard event Johnson was clocked in 23.5 while just touching out Cadets Schofield and Garrett. Ed Pope and Tom Britton managed to come in one- two over the same pair in the hun- dred in the time of 53.4. The team greatly enjoyed travel- ing to Hanover to win from Dart- mouth on the weekend of their annual Winter Carnival. On this occasion Howie Johnson set a new record for the Spaulding Pool in the lOO-yard freestyle in the time of 52.6. Brown on February 12 came to 197 New Haven, and while feeling the loss of co- captain Bob Schaper in the Sprints, offered little opposition to the Blue mermen. It was the Brown meet that saw the return of Dick Kelly from the ineligible list and the first attempt of the season at the world record in the 400-yard relay. The Yale team of Jack Vreeland, Dick Kelly, Ed Pope, and Howie Johnson succeeded in smashing the former world record of 3 130.7, made last year, in the time of 3:30.1. The Kiphuthmen had great success on the trip to Columbus on the weekend of February 15. Saturday afternoon they routed the Ohio State team 51 2-23 2, in a meet full of close finishes. The medley relay team of Danny Dannenbaum, Thurston Twigg-Smith, and Ed Pope sounded the keynote of the meet in winning their event in the time of 3:01.6. Captain Willis Sanburn and Rene Chouteau followed up with a one-two in the 220-yard free style. In the 50-yard sprint Howie Johnson won by inches over Ohio State ' s Johnny Leitt in the time of 23.7. The fancy dive was even more closely contested. Yale ' s Jim Cook was matching Captain Earl Clark (National highboard champion) dive for dive, and when just pulling out ahead, Cook misjudged his eight dive, allowing Clark sufficient advantage to cap- ture the event. Johnny Leitt of Ohio led Dick Kelly to win by a touch in the 100-yard event in 53.4. Danny Dannenbaum and Bob White came through with one-two in the backstroke to clinch the meet for Yale. In the breaststroke Bill Fair- hurst was nosed out by Ohio ' s Hirsch, who placed first with a 2:37.5. Dick Peters and Norm Clem- ent whisked through the 440 for eight more Fastest quartet in the ivorld Yale points. The final relay proved the most ex- citing race of the afternoon. Jack Vreeland, Ted Cooke, and Hy Wilson had been swimming even with and then slightly behind their men. Ohio State ' s anchor man had almost a body-length handicap on Ev MacLeman, who churned up the pool to capture the event. Following the Ohio State meet the team en- trained for Cleveland for an exhibition in the Athletic Club pool (twenty-yard course) in con- junction with Fenn College of Cleveland. Many of the Cleveland Alumni turned out to see the Yale team set two new pool records and tie a third. Howie Johnson set a record of 2:13.6 in the 220, breaking Weissmuller ' s old record of Stylists 2:i4-.?- In the 160-yard freestyle relay Tom Brit- ton, Dick Kelly, Ed Pope, and Howie Johnson were clocked in 1:12.2 (almost 18 seconds flat per man), breaking the record held hy Michigan of 1:12. s. Ed Pope tied Weissmuller ' s record in the 100 with a 52.0. The next Saturday saw the team in New Haven meeting the Navy as part of the Alumni Day program. Captain Gordon Wiley of the Midshipmen took Navy ' s two hrst places, with a win over Jack Vreeland in the so in the time of 23.4, and over Ev MacLeman in the 100 with a good 5.?.o. The meet climaxed with another world record smashed by the 400-yard relay team. The time was 3:28.8, with Tom Britton replac- ing Vreeland as lead-off man. TO Hi jn On Prom weekend Wayne University invaded the Payne Whitney pool. When the Yale medley relay was disqualified for an early jump in the first event things looked dark. But in the next event, the 220, Captain Sanburn and Howie Johnson came in one-two over Captain Andy Clark of Wayne to put Yale in the lead. Bill Prew and Guy Lumsden reversed the process in the 50, however, to win over Pope and Britton. Prew was clocked in 23.2, the fastest time for the pool this year. Jim Cook and Sandy Thompson outpointed Gardner of Wayne in the dive. Following the dive. Bill Prew, who had just beaten Scharamet of Michigan the week before, churned through the 100 to win over Johnson and Pope in 51.8. The closest race was between Captain Andv Clark and Rene Chouteau in the 440-yard free- style. They paced along evenly for seventeen laps, but Clark was able to repeat his win of last year by outreaching Chouteau at the finish stripe in the time of 4:55.6. The final score of the meet w -as 1; ale 48, Wayne 27. 199 In the letter-making Princeton and Harvard meets, Yale had little difficulty in overcoming the opposition. In the Princeton encounter, the Yale medley came through in the good time of 3 :oo.b. The breast-stroke race showed the re- turn of John Meyer to form. Meyer challenged Princeton ' s captain Ned Parke all the way for the 200 yards, hut was not quite able to touch him out. Parke ' s time was 2 :2g.O. The Yale team also proved the Harvard Neme- sis, allowing the Cantabs only one first in their own pool. This first was garnered when Harvard Captain Fran Powers stepped out into the lead on the first lap of the 220, and retained his ad- vantage to beat Johnson and Sanburn. Climaxing the Eastern League season, the Yale team monopolized the championships held at Annapolis, winning six firsts in the nine individ- ual events, and taking top honors in both the medley and 400-yard relays. At the National Collegiate Athletic Association championship at East Lansing, Michigan, Yale finished second to its arch rival, the University of Michigan, 61—58, with Ohio and Wayne tied at 19 each. Howie Johnson and Rene Chonteau won the 220 and 1500 titles, while Jim Cook finished second in both dives. Other place winners include Dannen- baum and White, second and fourth in the backstroke; Chonteau and Kelly, fourth and fifth in the 220; Johnson, second in the hundred; Meyer, fifth in the breast; and Chonteau and Sanburn second and fourth in the 440. The medley team finished second and in the climax event, the 400-yard relay, won over Michigan by inches, Johnson edging out Barker. On the Saturday between the Princeton and Harvard meets, the Ninth Annual Swimming Carnival was held in the Exhibition Pool of the Payne Whitney Gym. Wellesley and Vassal swimming clubs performed to music graciously supplied by the Yale Collegians. The medley re- lay of Gloria Callen, Lorraine Fischer, and Mil- dred O ' Donnell, representing the Women ' s Swimming Association of New York, just missed in their attempt to set a new world record for that event.

Basketball With a rousing victory over Harvard by the score of 51 to 44 Yale concluded a moder- ately successful season. By defeating Harvard and Princeton in all the games played, Yale won the Big Three title, and finished in a tie in the Eastern Intercollegiate League for fourth place. The Elis started the season without the graduated veterans Erickson, Stev- ens, and Sullivan, but with Seel- bach, Cobb, and Ingley forming a nucleus, victories were scored over the pre-vacation opponents, Wil- liams and Trinity. The western trip resulted in one victory over Washington University at St. Louis and two close losses to Bradley Tech and Loyola. After returning from the West, Amherst was defeated by a close score, but the victory resulted in the loss of Yale ' s high scorer, Bert Ingley, who sustained an old baseball in- jury which was to rob the team of his services for the greater part of the season. With Thorn also out of the lineup on account of sickness Yale suf- fered a losing streak at the hands of Cornell, Co- lumbia, and Pennsylvania, but by a brilliant uphill fight Princeton was defeated, 49 to 46. A one-point victory over Brown at Providence then followed, after which the League-leading Dartmouth team decisively defeated Yale at Han- over. The next week in a thrilling contest, probably the highlight of Yale ' s seasonal play, Dartmouth managed to win again by a one point margin, 51 to 50, at New Haven. Yale then underwent close losses before the Georgetown, Co- lumbia, and Pennsylvania fives, being forced to play without the services of Captain Cobb at Colum- bia. Cobb had suffered a leg in- Johnny Cobb jury in the game previous in which Backboard to basket Yale triumphed over Princeton on the loser ' s court, 37—34. He returned to the lineup and led the team to a victory over Manhattan and two win;- over Harvard. This year ' s team was a hard-luck five that played inspired hall throughout the season in spite of physical handicaps. The loss of Bert Ingley probably meant the loss of no less than five ball games, and Bill Thorn ' s loss robbed the team of some much needed height. These two losses, to- gether with those due to graduations, made the outlook for the season very dismal, but fine play by Joe Zilly and Sophomore Tom Vogt made the team toward the end of the season one to be feared by any opponent. The games with Dart- mouth and Georgetown at home when the team was out-matched physically were two of the best games ever played on the New Haven floor. This year ' s schedule of opponents, numbering some of the outstanding teams in the country, was prob- ably the most difficult of any attempted in recent years. The team never wavered for a moment and the fact that, despite many close defeats, it came through to win the Big Three title against good Harvard and Princeton teams is some slight indi- cation of its courage. All the home games were good contests and very well attended. A thrilling game at Bradley Tech, another at Loyola, and the one-point loss to Dartmouth were probably the highlights of team play for the season. Another noteworthy achievement of the team was the foul shooting when seventeen fouls out of eighteen chances were sunk in the Prince- ton game. This almost equaled the Madison Square Garden record of eighteen out of eighteen. Captain John Cobb turned in another great season and as a fitting tribute to his ability he was selected on one of the All-League teams chosen by the League coaches. He was the only Yale player to receive this recognition, and this honor was highly deserved. L nlike a lot of stars, he seemed to perform best when the game was at its toughest point, and his ball stealing ability has been unequaled in or out of the League. Bert Ingley managed to nurse his knee along enough to get into the Harvard games and per- form brilliantly in spite of this injury. In addi- tion to having an outstanding eye for the basket, Bert is one of the smartest players in the League and only the team could possibly know what a tremendous loss was experienced when he was unable to play. He has another season and it is Fond embrace hoped that his leg will improve sufficiently to permit him to be in the game regularly. Charley Seelbach was elected to the captaincy for next year, and this honor was richly deserved. Chuck ' s defensive play against Broberg and Ben- nett wherein he held Bennett of Cornell without a field goal was outstanding. He was also Yale ' s best backboard man and no better conditioned athlete ever appeared on the floor. Joe Zilly, during the latter part of the season, played great ball, and his fine shooting and ex- cellent ball handling were responsible to a large degree for the fine victories over both Harvard and Princeton. Joe will be missed when he gradu- ates this year, and it was a fitting tribute to his ability that he played one of his finest games in the final game of the year against Harvard. Tom Vogt, Captain of last year ' s Freshman team, fitted into this combination toward the end of the season and played brilliantly. He is one of the best shots on the squad and his improve- ment in defensive play augurs well for his future on Yale ' s basketball court. Ray Anderson and Al Bartholemy of the foot- ball squad did most of the alternating with the first five and it was difficult to choose between them and the first five. Ray Anderson is the finest jumper on the squad, and Al was invaluable in filling in at crucial moments in the different games. Bart will be back next year but Anderson will be lost through graduation. Ziggy Owen, the shortest man on the squad, was also one of, if not the best, shots on the squad. The only thing that kept him off the first five was his lack of size. He is a fine competitor and a great team player, and his loss by gradua- tion will be keenly felt. Bob Halliday and Art Wightman rounded out the second five, and both saw plenty of action. Bob graduates this year but Art, a greatly improved ball player, will make a tremendous fight for a starting berth next season. Three other substitutes who have given the work and opposition necessary to t heir develop- ment, Ted Barlow, Irv Walradt, and Moog Ames, received their letters also, but as members of the Senior Class will be lost through gradua- tion. The managerial duties were capably handled by Lev Ahrens and suffice it to say that he main- tained the high standard of efficiency that has been existant in the basketball managership. All in all the season, with its disappointing defeats, a share 203 Scramble of thrilling victories, good sportsmanship at all Three Championship, was very successful, time, fine competition, good audiences, and a Big Ken Loeffler 204 Back Row: E.

Wrestling S A brilliant climax to an already very suc- -iV cessf ul season Coach Eddie O ' Donnell ' s wrestling team led by Larry Pickett upset the apple cart as it has never been upset before. Yale and Princeton tied for the Eastern Intercollegiate Championship contrary to all the advanced dope of the experts. The championship climaxed Pickett ' s amazing record of no defeats in four years of dual competition and of winning the un- limited class and gaining a maximum of nine points. The season up to the Intercollegiates was better than average as Yale won five out of seven matches, losing only to Pennsylvania, favored to win at the Intercollegiates, and to Princeton by five points. Perhaps one of the great meets of the season was the one with Lehigh in which Yale tied a strong aggregation from Bethlehem by a score of 12— 12. In the winning column Pickett ' s grapplers chalked up victories over Tufts 34—0 ; Army 22-6; Cornell 16— n and Harvard 19-11. There were four outstanding men on the team this year — two seniors and two sophomores, Larry Pickett and Jim Latson went through the dual meets undefeated having gathered an im- pressive 50 points between them. Jack Castles and Fuzz Perry, the two sophomores, went through the season having lost only one match apiece in dual competition and they both gained a second place in the Intercollegiates. Not to go without mention are the others who wrestled — two other sophomores, Art White and Dud Miller who did so well at the Intercollegiates, and Ed Hicks with three victories and a draw and Brooks Parker, both Juniors. Parker had difficult competition this year, but in spite of it he wrestled well, especially against Eberle in the Princeton meet and against Hess of Penn State in the Intercollegiates. Brooks Parker was elected captain for the 1941—42 season. Artists ( runt and grnan 205 Bmk Roil ' : Aber (Manager), Stephan, Hausman, Wollensack, Grasson (Coach).

Fencing Although severely handicapped by a scarcity of experienced fencers, the Yale Varsity Fencing Team had a better than average season, winning four out of seven dual meets and taking first place in the first New England Invitational Fencing Tournament. The team was built up around Captain Owre in foil, James Hausman in epee, and Frank Wollensack in sabre, with six Sophomores and five Juniors participating louche, double touche actively in the season ' s meets. A majority of this year ' s meets were held away from Yale, but the team took this in its stride. Travelling to Philadelphia for its first meet, the team defeated Pennsylvania by a score of 15-12, and on the following week end Hamilton was downed i8 -8j . Then came defeats by Army, 17-10, and Columbia, 15-12, after which Yale again got back in the winning column by taking the Hartford Fencer ' s Club. On February 22 the first annual New England Invitational Fencing Tournament was held at New Haven with M.I.T., Brown, Wesleyan, and Yale competing. Yale nosed out a strong M.I.T. aggregation by two points to take the three-weapon championship. The sabre team championship was also won by Yale. George Dapport took third place individual honors in foil, while David Beers and Ted Olmstead cap- tured first places in epee and sabre respectively. At the Pentagonal Tournament Yale was com- pletely off form, ending up in last place. How- ever the team defeated Princeton the following week in a thrilling match by a score of 14— 13. The season ended rather disastrously when an exceptionally strong Harvard team won by a 21-6 score. 206 Squash Facing a schedule of eleven matches which ran from October ig to .March 3, the Varsity Squash Team remained undefeated in all matches but the one with Harvard. The Crimson squeezed out a close 5-4 decision over the Blue to put Yale in second place among the Big Three. Travelling to Philadelphia on January 17, the team scored a decisive victory over the Yale Club of Philadelphia by a 6-1 advantage. Williams went down before a 8-1 onslaught which was followed five days later by a 6-2 Yale victory over Dartmouth. In the Harvard match of March 8 played at Cambridge, the score was favoring Harvard 4-3 when Sewall Cutler in a series of squeeze plays brought Yale up to a 4-4 tie. In an equally thrill- ing match, Dan Dugan kept the gallery on their tiptoes in a hard drive that came within two points of dislodging his Harvard opponent. One week later, with Jack Oliver playing the most brilliant squash of his career, the Blue Team overcame a heavily favored Princeton nine man team by a decisive 6—3 score. During the highly successful season Jack From the gallery Oliver, Worthy Adams, Sewall Cutler, Dan and Dick Dugan set a pace of expert playing that was closely followed by that of Ned Lockwood, Bill Ketcham, Stew Pittman, Gus Schwab and Thorny Tompkins. Added to the season ' s victories in the college and club ranks mention must be made of Dan Dugan ' s march to the semifinals of the Connecti- cut State Championship and Gus Schwab ' s rise to the semifinals in the fifth Annual Intercol- legiate Invitation Squash Tournament.

Yale now has enjoyed 26 straight victories in League competition. In the shoulder-to-shoulder matches this season, the Elis bowed only to the crack Naval Academy team. The opening campaign against the Coast Guard Academy proved successful, as did the match with Columbia, but a trip to Annapolis left Yale on the wrong side of a 1404— 134 1 score. The University of Connecticut fell before the Yale guns, and the Elis hit their season ' s peak in their 1 370-1 361 victory over N.Y.U. Traveling again to New London, ale outshot Rhode Island State and Coast Guard in a triangular match. The climax of the season came with the trip to Cambridge where Yale downed Harvard 1364- 1346 and the M.I.T. outfit, 1361-1360, to clinch the League Title. In the latter match, with Yale trailing and the M.I.T. scores complete, Captain McCain, under the terrific strain of knowing the exact score necessary to bring his team the cham- pionship, fired his history-making 275 to produce the one-point margin of victory. A great blow to the team will be the loss of veteran Coach Bill Hook, who leaves Yale this spring. Largely through his efforts, Yale Rifle became and will definitely continue to be an officially recognized minor sport.

Indoor Polo HOPES for a team of championship caliber were high at the beginning of the season, even though the Yale Indoor Polo Team started off with a defeat at West Point. For the week following, the Elis journeyed down to Old Nas- sau to polish off the Tigers 18-15, as Jack Daniels sank six goals at number one. February 7, Yale played Cornell at Detroit for the British War Relief. Before a crowd of over five thou- sand, Bob Johnson sparked the play with many long goals. However, Jack Daniels subsequently came down with the mumps and left the team without one of its key players for the next three weeks. Minus Daniels, Yale suffered defeats at the hands of Princeton and Pennsylvania Mili- tary College the following fortnight. But they redeemed these losses by beating a strong N.Y.A.C. de legation, 20-12. Captain Dave Wil- helm ' s mallet was unusually potent that evening as he accounted with uncanny accuracy for twelve goals. Yale hopes were still strong for the Intercol- legiates held at West Point. Yale met Princeton in the first round and was beaten, 8-7, in a game that could have gone either way. Although lead- ing in the third period due largely to Wilhelm ' s successful conversions of five penalty shots, the Blue team could not keep up the pace in the last period as Tigers Rose and Kompf sank two goals while Yale could only account for one as Wil- helm missed a shot by inches. Major Hill unfortunately was called away this year, and the polo team lost a very able and appreciated coach. Captain Williams will replace the Major as coach and should look forward to a good 1941—42 season with veterans Daniels and Johnson returning.

Crew- 1940 With the opening of the fall practice Coach Ed Leader was fortunate enough to find himself with six men returning from the shell which made so successful a showing against Har- vard June last. As in past years, the main problem up for solution was that of the stroke position. It had been sup- posed that upon Tom Gile ' s gradu- ation, Fuzz Fargo would take over the number nine seat, but due to unforseen circumstances the latter was ineligible. The usual bad weather, common at this period of the season, forced the oarsmen to continue working out in the Payne Whitney gymnasium until March sixth when outdoor practice finally began. Charlie Ruprecht, forced out of his seat at Gales Ferry by sickness last year, was back at the number six position and Cross took the place of Beard who was out with injuries. Therefore, the boat at this time was composed of Liv- Bucky ingston at stroke, Frost seven, Ruprecht six, Gould five, Magee four, Dietrich three, Wallace two, Cross bow, and Captain Bucky Byers in the stern sheets. Returning March 20, Captain Byers, Man- ager Ford, and several enthusiastic boatloads of oarsmen found the Housatonic River jammed with ice and cut with cold piercing winds. Because of this fact, only five of the scheduled workouts were held on the river, the rest taking place in the tanks. The first week in April found the order of the num- ber one boat slightly changed: Bob Wallace was behind the coveted stroke oar, Cross seven, Ruprecht six, Gould five, Magee four, Vree- land three, Livingston two, Beard bow, and Captain Byers at the tiller ropes. However, with only some twenty-three more rowing days until the opener with Co- lumbia and Pennsylvania, Coach Ed Leader kept constantly shifting and rearrang- ing five University crews in an endeavor to develop the best combination and work a smooth release into his crew. The day of the Blackwell Cup regatta dawned clear and windless and found only one change in the make-up of the April boat: Vree- land was replaced by Frost. The Lions, who came up to the race undefeated, had one of their best navies in years and though confident of victory the Elis were Let ' s yo, boy .Master Craftsman expecting a close hard- fought race. Yale was off to a woeful start, whereas Columbia came out racing and immedi- ately took the lead, with Pennsylvania sec- ond and Yale third. Captain Byers was therefore forced to put the count up to thirty-six until the Blue oarsmen caught Pennsylvania at the halfway mark, when the count for the Eli boat was reduced to thirty-three and slowly in- creased in an effort to catch the hard-rowing Columbians. The count was now thirty-five for Yale and thirty-three for Co- lumbia, with the Lion crew still maintaining their early lead. Never was there much open water between the two leaders, although at first it appeared to be Columbia ' s race. In the last quarter of a mile both boats were rowing stroke for stroke in the high thirties, as the ri- val coxes put the pressure on their respective boats. Columbia couldn ' t quite hang on to where the anchored stake boat marked the finish and Yale, in a strong easy-flowing finish, which liter- ally churned the waters of the muddy Harlem, won by half a length. Wallace and Byers had indeed timed the race very well waiting until the peak of the Columbia effort had been reached and then going up to a nice space-covering forty. It was indeed a very creditable first and it would be unfair to single out any members of the crew for special mention. The week following their victory Yale met Syracuse and M.I.T. in the second of their newly instituted annual regattas. Even the most Photo finish optimistic of the Yale rooters had a healthy regard for the strength and lasting power of the Syracuse boat which lact year had been even up with Yale until the final half- mile mark when an unfortunate wearer of the Orange hooked an oar and was thrown from the boat. Leader ' s men were also eager to test their skill and power against M.I.T. who had been defeated recently by two boat lengths bv the Harvard first crew in a prac- tice race. In the Yale boat, Coach Ed Leader maintained Wallace at the stroke position as just reward for the later ' s fine work in the Blackwell cup race. Two men had been moved up from the Junior Varsity in an attempt to get greater smoothness; Charlie Aberg at number four position, and George Goss at number three. All the crews went off even with Yale rowing the Shelton lane, M.I.T. the middle, and Syracuse the Derby shore. By the time the halfway marker had been reached, M.I.T. had a half a length lead over the Yale boat, which seemed unable to settle down. Finally, at the mile and three-quarters flag, Wallace went up to thirty-six and soon to thirty-eight. It was then that Yale started to get a run on the boat and snatched victory from al- most certain defeat. The finish was sensational to say the least: in the last hundred yards the Yale crew not only overcame a half boat lead but finished a strong three-quarters of a length ahead of M.I.T. Syracuse came up from behind and almost overtook a gallant Engineer crew, spent trying to match the high-pitched beat of the Elis. All in all the Yale boat showed itself to be potentially a fine crew and in this race, at the high rating, they suddenly found themselves and applied the power that was undoubtedly there. However, at times they seemed a bit clumsy in that occasionally they punished their boat and did not, through rough finishes or unsteady slides, let it run smoothly out from under them. The official times were: Yale 10:19 4 5. M.I.T. 10:22 15, Syracuse 10:22 4 5. Yale came up to the Yale-Cornell-Princeton Bring her out, boys regatta undefeated and eagerly awaiting a chance to test a much-vaunted Cornell crew. Princeton ' s spotty early record had made her much less of a serious rival than usual. For this particular race Leader had reverted to his order of the Harlem with Jack Magee and Granger Frost taking back their four and three positions from Charlie Aberg and George Goss. Conditions for rowing were excellent what with a warm sun, a good flowing stream, and a very strong following wind. Yale and Cornell went off at thirty-nine in the first minute with Princeton rowing a little higher than either of their rivals. So far the race was very much like last year ' s affair on Lake Car- negie but at the mile marker Yale and Cornell upped the count and started to rapidly eat up Princeton ' s lead. After Princeton had been dropped behind, pandemonium broke loose from the observation train as Yale and Cornell were matched stroke for stroke, both boats rapidly in- creasing the beat to a back-breaking forty. With only twenty strokes to go, Captain Byers fran- tically waved his red flag before Wallace. This action seemed to somewhat upset Yale ' s stroke and he indulged in a desperate attempt to make the stroke higher instead of harder. The crew behind him unfortunately faltered for a split second and it was this second that gave Cornell the chance to nip Yale at the post by a scant foot, establishing a new Derby record for this course. Again the Yale boat lacked smoothness ; the power was there, plenty of it for they matched strokes for a mile with one of the heaviest and most experienced crews in the East. The official times clocked were: Cornell 9:33 1 5, ale 9:33 2 5, Princeton 9:39 2 5. With two well-rowed victories and one close fit The four o ' clock launching defeat Yale approached the all-important Har- vard classic with a feeling of confidence. The final practices at Gales Ferry found many shifts effected between the varsity and junior varsity boats, in an attempt to find the best possible winning com- bination. All year the make-up of the two crews had been a vexing problem and somewhere be- tween the two boats lay the desired — a victorious shell. Finally, after the last time trial, Ed Leader in desperation took the stroke, seven, five an J three out of his J. V. boat, moved Aberg up to two, Livingston down to four and called the re- sult Yale ' s varsity crew. Time, by then, was growing short, and although the crew had obvious potentialities, they had only a few precious w ' ork- outs together as a boat before the race. It was not until eight o ' clock, a half-hour after the appointed time, that the wind had fallen suf- ficientlv for the varsities to come to the starting line. The sun was already casting long shadows across the water as Mr. Putnam got the crews smartly away. Yale, in the west lane, made clear her intention of not being left at the post and stayed up in the high thirties for almost two minutes while Harvard came along at thirty- three. The Blue had almost a half-length lead at the quarter-mile, but as soon as Yale was forced to drop the rating, Harvard ' s superior pace be- gan to tell. Rowing thirty-one to Yale ' s thirty- three, Harvard caught the Elis at the half-mile mark, had open water at the mile and was never headed from then on. Yale rowed almost two strokes higher than Harvard over most of the course, whereas the Crimson stuck to the low thirties with a fine steady run to the boat and finally led Yale into the finish in the quiet waters of Bartlett ' s cove by over six lengths of open water. The outcome of the Regatta was indeed a crushing climax to an otherwise quite success- ful crew season, for it marked the fifth straight defeat of a Yale varsity crew by Harvard and a third year that Yale had not won a single run. And then comes the grind 213 Reynolds (Coxswain), Wallace, Cross, Vietor, Gould, Magee, Frost, Burchard, Watson. Jayvee Crew The quality of the Junior Varsity oarsmen of this year caused no little consternation among the members of the first boat, and among the coaches. During the season they won two and dropped two, but their boat constituted a constant threat to the varsity boat and brought about a considerable shift of men for the Harvard race, since they outdistanced the varsity in pre-race trials. On the Harlem, May 4, the Jayvees were taken by Columbia, who got the jump at the start and held their early advantage. The Blues twice made strong bids but failed to make up the deficit al- For dear old Yale though they finished five lengths ahead of Penn- sylvania. Their time was 7:201 5, as against 7:162 5 for the Lions over the 1 4 mile course. At Derby the following week against M.I.T. and Syracuse, with an estimated 10,000 spectators looking on, the Yale sweeps took undisputed command at the mile mark, and were able to meet all challenges easily. The boat finished in 10:35, three and four lengths ahead of Syracuse and M.I.T. respectively. The most decisive win on May 18, went to the Jayvee Blues as they left Cornell and Prince- ton far astern. The race was all Yale ' s from the racing start to the sprinting finish. The Blue took just 9:42 minutes to cover the course. With a slightly changed boat for the New Lon- don race in June, the Junior Varsity suffered defeat at the hands of a strong Harvard con- tingent. Wind and choppy water forced them out of their course, and thus ensured Harvard a two- length victory. The crew for this race was com- posed of : Wallace, stroke ; Cross, 7 Vietor, 6 ; Gould, 5; Magee, 4; Frost, 3; Burchard, 2; Watson, bow; and Reynolds, cox. Others con- tributing to the boat during the season were: Vreeland, 3 ; Aberg, 4 ; Goss, 5 ; Rannenberg, 7 ; and Blair, stroke. 214 150-pound Crew THE 150-pound crew, captained by Charles Dicky, opened their season in the annual Blackwell Cup Regatta on May 4. This year the race was held on the Harlem River in New York. Only the Varsity 150 ' s rowed. The race was at the Henley distance — one mile and five six- teenths, and was one of the most exciting of the year. Penn and Columbia were the opposing crews, and Yale just nosed out Penn to win by four feet. Columbia was a poor third, four lengths behind Penn. The second race of the season for the Dicky men was the Goldthwaite Cup Regatta held at Derby. The Varsity again rowed the Henley dis- tance, while the J.V. boats rowed the mile course. The other crews competing for this cup were Harvard and Princeton. The J.V. race, which was held in the morning, was rowed under far better conditions than the Varsity race, which was not rowed till the afternoon. Harvard ' s J.V.s, rowing smoothly the entire mile, defeated both Yale and Princeton, who finished in that order. In the afternoon, Yale, using a higher stroke, managed to keep ahead of Harvard up to the last quarter mile, then the Harvard boat raised its stroke, and, overcoming Yale ' s lead Off for a spin with a rush, finished a half length ahead of the Yale boat, thus retaining the Goldthwaite Cup. The final race of the season was The American Henley Regatta, held at Cambridge, for the Jo- seph Wright Challenge Cup, on May 18. Yale sent both the Varsity and J.V. ' fifties to this race. In the Varsity race Yale finished fourth behind Harvard, M.I.T., and Princeton, while beating Cornell, Penn, and Columbia. In the J.V. race Yale got off to a good start, and, in spite of choppy water, maintained their lead to defeat Harvard. Princeton and M.I.T. finished third and fourth. After the final race, William Dale Fisher was elected captain for the 1 941 season, and later, at Gales Ferry, John W. Faw- cett was elected manager. w Back Roiv: Edgerton, Fisher, Hindman, Pinchom, Dickey (Captain), Shorey, Comte, Fessenden.

Track-1940 Yale ' s 1940 track season was the a decade. Working under the Charlie Hoyt, who was enjoying his in New Haven after sixteen years of successful coaching at Michigan, Yale won its first Big Three Crown in seven years and captured first-place honors in the Hep- tagonal Games hesides. Coach Hoyt was ably assisted in the field events by Spike Nelson. Leading Yale in this successful campaign were Captain Jay Shields, Ted Day, Dick Morse, Tommy Lussen, and Captain-elect Bob Owen. The indoor season was devoted almost exclusively to conditioning work and hence did not show the power that was to be found on the cinders outdoors. The season opened inauspiciously in Boston at the Prout Games as all individual brightest in tutelage of lust vihiin entrants in the hurdles and dashes were eliminated in the preliminary heats, but the Mile Relay team of Boland, Reddington, Jackson, and Madden showed promise as they defeated Brown and Tufts, while the two- mile foursome placed second to Boston College with Northeastern third. The following week at the Millrose Games Lussen took third in the Pole Vault at 13 feet 6 inches while Shields ran sec- ond to Tolmich in the hur- dles. At the B.A.A. Games the results were likewise unpromising for a happy season as Tom Lus- sen ' s 14 feet in the vault was only good enough for a second place. In the Harvard Weight Competi- tion held on the same day the Elis failed to capture a single place. Jay Shields The N.Y.A.C. Games results 216 Led the pack showed much the same story as Lussen again placed second at 13 feet 6 inches, but the two-mile- relay quartet showed improvement as Ashton, Main, Morse and Ord ran second to Princeton and ahead of Pennsylvania and Columbia. At the Quadrangular Games in Boston Yale finished last behind Harvard, Cornell, and Dartmouth. The only solace for Yale came from the fact that many of its entrants continued to show improvement and could be expected to perform capably outdoors. Outstand- ing for the Elis were Bob Owen, who was second in the 50-yard dash, Jay Shields, second in the hur- dles, Art Madden, winner of the 300, Main who placed fourth in the mile, Lussen who tied for first in the Vault and the Relay Teams which placed second in each event. The indoor season closed the following week in Madison Square Garden as Yale placed sixth in the I.C. 4 A. Meet. The Elis garnered 1 i l 2 points as Lussen tied for first in the vault, the two-mile-relay team took a fifth, Main finished fifth in the IOOO, Shields took second and Osborn a fifth in the hurdles. In the outdoor season the Eli track team really began to show the results of the three months coaching under the expert guidance of Charlie Hoyt. At the Penn Relays Yale ' s Shuttle Hurdles foursome of Shields, Day, Os- born, and Murphy tied the American record for the event and cracked the carnival standard as they breasted the tape in I :00.8. As this was the third triumph for Yale in this event the Elis were awarded permanent possession of the Psi Epsilon Pi Cup. The Quarter-Mile Relay of Monroe, Ashton, Madden, and Owen took a fourth, and the Medley Relay of Boland, Madden, Owen, and Ord likewise was fourth. Lussen was the only individual entrant to break into the scoring as he placed second after vaulting 13 feet 6 inches. The following week Yale lost a bitterly fought meet to Pennsylvania on Franklin Field by one Planed to victory third of a point, the final score being Penn 67%. Yale 67 ' j. Outstanding performances by the Eli forces included Jay Shields ' 14.5 clocking in the High Hurdles which established a new Yale and meet record; Madden ' s first in the 440; Morse ' s 4:20.4 mile which also established a new meet record ; Yale ' s sweep of the two-mile run by Pfeiffenberger, Kaynor, and Adams ; and Ted Day ' s victory in the Low Hurdles. In the field events Yale was unable to keep pace with Penn ' s galaxy of stars, but Macomber won the Pole Vault and Vince Carpenter the Hammer. Although Princeton had held a jinx over the Blue since 1936, the Tigers met their Waterloo Wiped our eye when they faced the 1940 Eli aggregation and received a 78—57 trouncing. Firsts were recorded by the following Elis in these events: Shields in the High Hurdles, Owen in the IOO, Day in the Low Hurdles, Owen again in the 220, Carpenter in the Hammer, Lussen in the Pole Vault, Par- shall in the Shot Put, and DeMott in the Javelin. Although the Elis were not to meet the Har- vard team for another week, the highlights of the 1940 season occurred at Franklin Field when the Eli forces garnered the Heptagonal Games Title, with a total of 55 J4 points to Penn ' s 44, while Princeton, Cornell, Harvard, Dartmouth, and Columbia finished in that order. Highlights of Carried the mail Yale ' s victory, however, included Lussen ' s first in the Vault, Shields ' victory in the High Hurdles as he set a new meet record of 14.5, Morse ' s vic- tor) in the mile. These were the only first places captured by the Elis but by placing at least once in all but three of the events Yale was not to be denied its title. The Harvard Meet served as a delightful climax to the season as the Elis won 705 2-64 J 2. Once again Shields, Owen, Day, Morse, and Lussen continued to dominate the day as thev registered wins in their particular events. Shields ended up his career at Yale by once again break- ing the Eli standard for the High Hurdles, which he had established earlier in the season, registering 14.4. This mark also established a new meet record and equalled the I. C. 4 A. record for the event. Owen likewise set up a new meet and Yale record of 9.7 in the 100-yard dash. Not to be outdone in this orgy of record breaking Ted Day ended his running days at Yale by breasting the tape in the 220 Low Hurdles in 23.4 to set new Yale and meet records. The Elis traveled to the I. C. 4 A. Meet at Harvard the following week but failed to keep company with the fast traveling Pitt and Penn State teams, but did manage to place third with 20 points. Owen took third in the 100, Morse a third in the mile, Shields a second and Day a fifth in the High Hurdles, Owen a third in the 220, and Shields a fourth in the Low Hurdles, and Lussen placed fourth in the Vault. The season was a gala one from the Eli stand- point and marked what may be the beginning of a new era in Yale track. Credit for the success of this season must be divided equally between Charlie Hoyt and Spike Nelson for the capable job of coaching they did in their first year at Yale and to the athletes themselves for the outstanding performances and improvements that they showed.

Baseball- 1940 THE 1940 baseball season was the record of a potentially powerful Yale nine finding itself almost helpless at the plate with the result that it is difficult to credit the season with much more than mediocrity. The team won sixteen out of its twenty-seven encounters for a .592 percentage. The loss of Captain Collins whose hitting and general outstanding play had been a spark plug for three years was keenly felt. Under the leadership of Captain Tricky Alter, candidates began work in the cage with an auspicious group on hand. With Burdett and Schroeder alternating behind the plate, and Hazen at first base, Alter and Besse were ready to fill other infield posts. In the outfield Bill McClellan, Jake Dore, Gor- don Grayson, Harry Holt, and Howie Kaye were scheduled to battle it out for the garden posi- tions. On the mound the team had Ted Harrison, Freshman captain and star, as well as Joe Wood and Tricky Alti Dick Ames, all ready to handle the pitching as- signments. Gig Carton and Bert Ingley came up from the Freshmen ranks with impressive records as well. On April 8 the season opened against Tufts auspiciously, with Harrison and Wood limiting the Medford clan to four scattered blows, Harrison fanning ten men in five frames. With Schroeder leading the attack with three hits, the Elis won 5— I. Continuing in the same manner, a 9-5 triumph was scored over Williams who found the Yale moundsmen diffi- cult to fathom. Captain Alter hit a single, triple, and a climaxing home run to take top honors for the day. The winning streak was halted at Providence as Brown edged out the Blue, 3—2, in the tenth inning, after a tight pitch- ing duel between Dick Ames and Juszczyk of the Bruins. Harrison pitched the Elis to their initial league victorv over Cagey steal Perm on the home diamond. Downey Orrick ' s homer with Joe Wood on base provided the mar- gin of victory in a colorful game interrupted both by rain and an assault upon Umpire Mead by Penn ' s Franny Reagan. Harrison allowed only four hits while retiring thirteen via the strike- out route. A revenge victory over Brown was followed by an 8-1 league triumph over Dart- mouth which marked the appearance of Carton at shortstop. The mighty midget doubled and tripled in his initial start after be- ing summoned from the links to play, while on the hill the star port sider again fanned eleven men and pitched superb ball all aft- ernoon. On May 4 the team went to Columbia and un- derwent a 4-1 reversal, al- though Besse hit for the cir- cuit early in the game. The Blue outhit their Harlem rivals, but faulty play in the field gave Columbia three unearned runs and the mar- gin of victory. On the road again, this time to Worces- ter, the team had its usual set back from Holv Cross, a 4-0 shutout. An easy 9-1 triumph over William and Mary in a game marked by powerful Yale hitting was soon counter-balanced by an unexpected defeat at the hands of the Army. Before the season ' s largest crowd, Joe Wood, Jr., bettered his brother Steve in a mound duel as Yale nosed out Colgate, 5-4, with Harry Holt scoring on a squeeze play in the last half of the ninth. In the seventh inning, Steve blasted the offering of brother Joe for a mighty homer over the left field wall. Traveling to Philadelphia, Yale found its eye and hammered across ten runs, while Ted Har- rison broke the league strike-out record with a total of fourteen. Joe Wood pounded out a home run while Schroeder contributed a timely triple with Carton aboard. In a winning mood, another league triumph was registered in a 1-0 shutout over Columbia in the Elm City with Harrison and Lindgren of Columbia giving only three hits apiece. All hope for league victory vanished as the team wound up on the short end of both games of a twin bill against Cornell at Ithaca. Cornell found Harrison for three blows in the last of the tenth, in the opener, to win by a 2-1 count, while Walt Sickles, Red mound ace, held Yale to one hit in the nightcap, a single by Harrison. Two singles and an expensive error by the Elis saw a result- ing 2—0 blanking. A temporary return to the Early sprint pow-WOVJ Loiv and outside win column came in a 5-4 victory over Am- herst. Holy Cross came to town in a return game, and promptly eased Yale into the debit side of the ledger with a 5-3 defeat. On May 25 the high point of the season came in the Big Three encounter with Prince- ton at New Haven. While Harrison was twirling masterfully to hold the Tigers to four hits, his mates blasted out twelve hits, which, combined with six- Princeton errors, netted Yale eleven tallies. Carton, McClellan, Holt, Besse, and Burdett had two blows apiece and the latter ' s with the bases full both times. Flushed with victory, the Elis trounced Wes- leyan by the same score, with Joe Wood turning in a brilliant no-hit performance on the mound. Two doubles bv Wood and Harrison also fea- Into the crystal ball tured the Eli onslaught. Later on that week, al- though garnering only three hits, the Blue cap- italized on several of Fordham ' s costly errors to win by a score of 4—1. Overflowing with confidence after the last encounter, the team engaged Princeton before an alumni gathering in Jungletown, but this time the Blue suc- cumbed to a 2-0 shut- out. Dan Carmichael baffled the Eli batters- all the way and gave up only three hits, while Jones and Mc- Coy found Harrison no problem as they each collected three blows. Holt ' s double was the only shining light for Wood ' s cohorts during the day. Three days later Yale took revenge on a touring Illinois Wesleyan aggregation, 6-4, with Wood keep- ing nine hits well scat- tered. In the return game with Dartmouth, takes it soar the Indian Captain Hal Worson and Harrison engaged in a pitcher ' s duel with the former win- ning out, 2—1. The Elis threw away numerous chances to win by weakness at bat. The Blue drew first blood in the initial frame, but from there in the attack stalled. Before a large alumni crowd Yale downed Harvard in twelve innings. Joe Wood hurled the last seven innings after Harrison retired with a sore arm. It was his day as he pounded out a home run as well as provided the fielding gem of the day by nabbing Cantab Buckley at the plate with a perfect throw from deep center field. The next encounter saw Harvard turn the tables by a 4—3 count on their own diamond. Dick Ames hurled superbly for seven frames, but weakened in the closing innings as a Harvard double and single in succession in the ninth proved to be the deciding factor. Unfortunately, the Boat race game at Mercer Field in New London was taken by Harvard, in spite of the stellar mound performance of Joe Wood who struck out thir- teen. After the game, Joe Wood, Jr., who had played magnificent ball both in the outfield and on the mound, was elected captain. Laurence G. Tighe, Jr., took over the managerial reins from Robert D. Orr, while Horton Prudden won the compe- tition, thereby becoming assistant manager. Baby Bunting Msr wk Jayvee Baseball Under the leadership of Carl Dunbar and the able tutelage of Coach Ken Loeffler. the Jayvees enjoyed an unusually successful sea- son, winning ten of their fourteen games. The season opened with Arnold College and in a loosely-played contest the teams emerged in a 6-6 deadlock, as the game was called because of cold weather. In the next game, with Franzen on the mound, a 3—2 victory was scored over Hopkins Grammar; Franzen limited the opposi- tion to two hits. In a game marked by questionable important umpire decisions the Jayvees were reluctant to admit a 7-5 defeat at the hands of Steve Yerkes ' Freshman outfit, but two days later the Greys returned to edge out their opponents by a 3-2 count. After downing Hillhouse and Hamden High Schools, the team met defeat at the hands of Milford, largely due to the pitching efforts of young Klimczak who had kept the Freshman at bay earlier in the season. With Franzen and Seelbach sharing the mound duties, the team shut out the Baypath Institute, 8-0, capitalizing on the opposition ' s errors and collecting eleven hits for themselves. Continuing in this streak, the Jayvees ran over Springfield College and the Junior College of Commerce quite handily. The climax of the season came in the last two games. At Princeton the Blue nine trounced the Bengals, 13—0, Franzen limiting the opposing lineup to three hits while his mates blasted out twelve blows. Captain Dunbar sparkled in the garden with several sensational catches. In the final game Ken Loeffler ' s charges administered a 1 3-1 defeat to Hotchkiss at Lakeville, with Rick Franzen again hurling superb ball and the team finding the offerings of the schoolboys easy pick- in---. 224 Lacrosse— 1940 WITH one of the most ambitious schedules in years, the 1940 Lacrosse Team had a fine pre-season session in the Payne Whitney Gym before embarking on a season which produced six wins, one tie, and four losses. The Rootmen ' s opener, a box lacrosse game with Swarthmore February 17, resulted in an 1 1—6 triumph for the Blue. The Yale stickmen dropped their next game, with Penn State, 12—6. Moving outdoors in March, the Elis gave C.C.N.Y. a 13— I thrashing. A week later Lehigh suffered a somewhat closer 12-6 defeat at Yale ' s hands, as Dell and Brooks shared top scoring honors. Yale tied Rutgers 8-8 after an overtime period in which neither team gained a decision, although both scored once. A trip to Penn proved futile, as heavy rain washed away all hopes of a game. At Annapolis the following week the Mid- shipmen sank the Blue, 1 1—5. A very satisfactory and exciting 4-3 victory over a spirited Dart- mouth team followed, and two days later the Varsitv handilv took over the Alumni, 1 1—2. UN  Atrial offensive The thus far successful Blue fared poorly in the quest for the Big Three Championship. First the visiting Nassaumen gained an exciting 9-4 win. And then, after another victory over Spring- field, 14-10, Yale dropped to the Big Three cellar as a determined Cantab team beat them 6-4. It was a very unhappy end to an otherwise successful season.

After losing 9-0 to the Seventh Regiment in a pre-season match, the team headed southwards for the latter part of spring vacation. While there, North Carolina handed the Blue aggregation two unofficial defeats, before the re- turn trip to New Haven. Miami University set the courtmen back again, 6-3, in the first match in home territory, but the team soon hit its stride in drubbing another Southern opponent, Virginia, 6-3. Amherst next fell to the superior Blue forces by a 8J 2— J 2 score ; and shortly afterwards, the Army received a 6-3 beating. A stauncher adversary was met in North Carolina, who pinned a 5-4 defeat on Yale. Against Princeton, Yale won the first five singles, but finally succumbed to the Tiger 8J — 6 I 2. Rounding into the home stretch, Yale took Dartmouth 5—4, and Williams 7—2. Columbia fell next in order to the home team by the score of 7—2, and set the stage for the next week ' s de- bacle at Cambridge, when the team administered a 8-1 shellacking to the Crimson forces. Bob Freedman was runner up in the N.E.I.L.T.A. matches held at Brown, while the doubles team of Steckler and Ehrman reached the semi-finals. The singles play of Captain Stephens, Bob Freedman, Sewall Cutler, Bill Thorn was outstanding throughout the season, while Tom Rutledge and Mac Stephens com- bined to form the other top performers in the doubles circuit.

Golf-1940 The 1940 Golf season opened during the Spring recess when twenty hopeful candi- dates led by Captain Ed Meister and accom- panied by Coach Ben Thomson journeyed to Augusta, Georgia, to obtain that all important Spring tune-up. Captained by Ed Meister and expertly coached by Ben Thomson, the team compiled an excellent record during the 1940 season, losing only to Princeton early in the season, and to Georgetown University in the intersectional playoffs of the Eastern Intercollegiate Golf Championships. After the Princeton defeat the team hit its stride and, concentrating its attention on the teams of the northern division of the Eastern Intercollegiate League, in quick succession de- feated Holy Cross, Williams, Dartmouth, Brown, and Harvard by the decisive scores of 7—2, 5-4, 8-1, 8—1, and 6 -2 r 2, respectively. Yale, the leader of the northern division met the George- town golfers, winners of the middle Atlantic division, in the playoffs. By the slenderest of margins, five matches to four, Georgetown de- feated Yale to win the Eastern Intercollegiate Championship. The spectacular individual com- petition in which Ed Meister defeated J. B. Burke, who reigned a slight favorite, left a good- sized gallery breathless. This match displayed the pair of dazzling shooters at the top of their form. Following the playoffs and during the next week the team defeated Amherst 5j4— 3j4 and the Alumni 7-6. During the season, besides the regular intercollegiate competition, the team suc- cessfully met and defeated the Greenwich Coun- try Club, giving a final tally of nine wins and two defeats for the season. mil 227 Major Y Men in College R.

Zorthian, Silliman College Professor E. D. Smith, Master of Saybrook College Y. H. Neale, Intercollege Athletic Secretary The all time high point in interest and en- thusiasm was reached the Friday preceding the Harvard-Yale University football game, when seven Harvard House-Yale College foot- hall games were played at the same time. Usu- ally, ten championship House-College contests are played during the college year, hut this is the first year that all the teams from Harvard in a single sport, have played a similar team at Yale. This is probably the greatest mass athletic com- petition on one day between two universities. Timothj Dwight, the Yale College Champions, defeated Adams House, the Harvard House Champions, I -o. The Yale Colleges divided hon- ors in the other six contests, winning two, tying two and losing two. This interuniversity compe- tition pleased the contestants as well as the spec- tators and, no doubt, in the future, these contests will be an annual affair. A continued increase in participation has been maintained since the inception of college ath- letics, eight years ago. This fact alone indicates the steady increased spirit and enthusiasm in col- lege sports. During the spring and fall seasons of 1940, and the winter season of 1 94 1, there were 2957 individuals including duplication in more than one sport taking part in the fifteen sports in the Intercollege program. This increased par- in the Intercollege program. W. H.

Viets With the smallest squad in the league, Timo- thy Dwight became the first college to win the football championship three times. Continu- ing the five-game winning streak with which they finished the season in 1939, the team, led by Cap- tain Bob Cooke, and coached by Frazier Curtis, first-year law student, won ten games in a row, including nine league games and one game with Adams House of Harvard, thereby setting an In- tercollege league record. Timothy Dwight rolled up a total of 116 points to their opponents ' 18 in the league competition and then defeated Adams House of Harvard, 1 3-0, in the post-season game. It is difficult to single out individual players who were outstanding because of the teamwork displayed, but the leadership of Cooke, who was also a fine plunging back and pivot man, was a potent factor, and the outstanding threat in the Captain Manager early part of the season was Claude Hart, ' 43, who later moved up to the 150-pound squad. Both Ed Pope and Chuck Emery, intercollege all-stars from last year were back though they started late. All told there were eight men on the Intercollege all-star squad, chosen after the season. They were, on the first team: Stack, ' 43, end; deBeer, ' 43, and Trudeau, ' 42, tackles; and Pope, ' 42, and Emery, ' 42, backs; on the second team: Rum- bough, ' 42, guard, and Cooke, ' 41, back; and honorable mention: Goring, ' 42, guard. One of the most important factors in the team ' s success was the enthusiastic support of the col- lege. Mrs. Rogers, Timothy Dwight ' s first lady, who was always on hand with a word of en- couragement, never missed a game. Both the team and the management owe a lot to her. 233 Back Roiv: Small (Manager), Mansfield, Hunter, Ehrman, Cohen. Front Roiu: Carton, Cobb, Ahrens (Captain), Besse, Barlow. Trumbull Touch Football Leavitt B. Ahrens Eliot G. Small Showing admirable team spirit and a terrific desire to win, Trumbull ' s speed merchants swept aside all opposition to an undefeated sea- son and went on to defeat Kirkland House of Harvard in the grand finale. Operating a fleet set of lateral-passing backs behind a line of sticky- fingered pass-snatchers, the Bulls amassed a total of 386 points, while their tight man-for-man defense held opponents to only 134. The defense was especially brilliant in the Timothy Dwight fracas, which the Bulls captured by the score of 18—0. Using the new spread-type offensive, which proved both colorful and effective, the high- powered Trumbull attack rolled up 86 points against Saybrook and 46 against Silliman, in their last two regular Intercollege games. The closest contest of the season was with the Berkeley team, which was subdued only after an overtime strug- gle. The team showed its real mettle in the Captain Manager Kirkland House game by coolly overcoming a two touchdown deficit to hang a 36—24 setback on the Cantabs. The leaders of the Princeton league were also overcome in an informal game on a wind-swept field, just to make the record complete. The team consisted of baseballers Besse and Carton, basketballers Cobb and Barlow, Hunter, Ehrman, Stewart, Cohen and Mansfield. The fact that the same group played together as a unit all year made for good team play and a well- knit team throughout. Much of the success must also be attributed to the capable direction and leadership of Captain Ahrens. However, it was the play of the team as a whole, rather than out- standing individuals, that resulted in the clean sweep. Each man knew and carried out his as- signments to the best of his ability and with effec- tiveness. 2.U Back Roiv: Page, Thompson, Musser, Dern, Viets (Manager). Front Row: Hart, Carton, Kubie (Captain), McGowan, Kranichfeld. Timothy Dwight Basketball Donald A. Kubie Wallace T. Viets Captain Manager Snapping back with a vengeance after losing out in the last game a year ago by a margin of one point, the Timothy Dwight College Basketball Team won its first league championship with a final record of ten wins and three losses. The team, led by Captain Kubie, was outstanding princi- pally for its ability to function as a unit, rather than for having any particular high-scorer. The team was fortunate in that only two men of last year ' s second place team were lost by graduation. This deficit was made up by some out- standing sophomores. Remaining from last year were Kubie, Carton, Kranichfeld, McGowan, Dern and Sladen. Newcomers were Hart, Stack, Thompson, Musser and Hobson. The first five and the team which played most of every game was Kubie, McGowan, Carton, Kranichfeld and Hart. The team was handicapped in several games by lack of height, but superior ball-handling usu- ally decided the outcome. In the first round the team won its first four games and then lost a close one to Pierson by one point. They won the next two, then were beaten by Saybrook, and finished the first round in second place, behind Pierson, after defeating Silliman. They were thus denied the chance to play Kirk- land House of Harvard. In the final round the team lost only to Branford and defeated Silliman, Jonathan Edwards and Pierson. Pierson and Timothy Dwight were tied for first place until the last game, when the team clinched the cham- pionship by defeating the Slaves 29— 19. In a post-season game, the team defeated South Fay, the Freshman Intramural Champions, by a score of 17—14, thus winning the mythical University Championship. 235 Back Rom;: Burke (Coach).

Bick Eliot G. Small An almost totally veteran aggregation was L Trumbull ' s swimming team this year, cham- pions for the second consecutive season. Built around three-year men, Captain Charlie Bick, Bill Porter, and Howie Knight, the Bulls owe the continuation of their undefeated record in Intercollege competition to balance and regular attendance at the meets. Down from diving with the Varsity last year came Hay ties Sheppard, to give the team a 25- plus 50 yard freestyler; from the potent Van- derbilt team of last year they got a better-than-58 IOO yarder in Al Hunter; and Sophomore Bruce Hammerschmidt turned in backstroke times worthy of the Varsity at most other schools. Juniors Bert Sheppard and Tom Turner, veter- ans of last year ' s team, were always good for two places in the butterfly, and Cap Bick and Haynes Sheppard earned the same in the dive. Besides Hunter and the older Sheppard, holdovers Captain Ianager Bill Stewart and Hank VVoodard, and Sopho- more Bill Williams garnered many Trumbull points in the freestyle events, while Hammer- schmidt, Porter, and Knight took very good care of all dorsal opponents. At the outset of the season, the Bulls worried only about Silliman and Timothy Dwight as threats to their swimming supremacy. After Calhoun beat the Salamanders, however, T.D. ' s team remained the only stumbling block. Bal- ance told the story in that meet, and the close 32-30 score was only due to the disqualification of the Trumbull relay team which actually won its race. Up at Cambridge, facing Kirkland for the sec- ond year in a row, the Bulls lost a close one and a tough one to a really fast team. Ahead 26—24 going into the final relay, they were unable to cope with the strong quartet that the Harvards floated, and they lost the meet 31—26. 23 6 Li | i it.

Timothy Dwight Hockey PACED by Captain Busher Cooke, the Timo- thy Dwight pucksters dubbed themselves blue-blades of the Gillettorium (arena) by capturing the final game with their arch-rivals, the Silliman Salamanders. The hockey league presented many exceptionally good teams infected with the progressively increasing competitive spirit between the colleges. Beginning the season with a 4-1 victory over Trumbull, Timothy Dwight swept thru to the championship with the loss of only two games. The Berkeley jinx, nemesis of three consecutive T.D. teams, good or bad, perpetuated its curse by sneaking past the Big Red in a sudden death overtime. Harvard ' s Winthrop House, bolstered by Junior Varsity players, met T.D. in New Haven on March 7 to compete for the mythical Harvard-Yale Intercollege cham- pionship. The Winthrop Cantabs, in the most exciting game of the year, outfought the determined Dwights, winning 4-2, and car- rying off top-honors between Universities. Though the Timothy Dwight hockey team was more evenly balanced than individually spectacu- lar, honors should go to the potent few who, defensively and offensively, foiled the barricades of opposition so frequently as to warrant special praise. Captain Cooke and Frank Trudeau, on the defense, expertly confused the assaults of opposing linemen, adding occasional solo dashes topped by occasional scores. Ned Hall, versatile goalie, frustrated foes by deflecting pucks with pads or proboscis with equal ease. In the forward line, next year ' s captain, George Bermingham, flanked by ice experts H. Kaye and J. Cavanagh, accounted for a major portion of the year ' s scores. The loss of several seniors from the team will decimate the ranks and may hinder the defense of the championship, but next year ' s Big Red will present competition enough to frustrate the forces of any and all opposition. 237 Caulkins, Worrilow, Preston, Bannard, Welch, Miller, Lacouture (Manager) Silliman Squash William N. Bannard, III Paul E. Lacouture Displacing Davenport ' s perennial squash leaders at last, Silliman ' s squash team went through its schedule undefeated to win the Inter- college Championship. Ewing Philbin, who won the college tourna- ment, started off the season as number one man, only to graduate to the Varsity. Bill Worrilow took over the leadoff position, followed usually by George Caulkins, Captain Bill Bannard, Bing Miller, Heinie Preston and Hunt Welch. The Salamanders dropped only seven matches during the season, the strongest opposition coming from their greatest rivals, Timothy Dwight, who threw a scare into the leaders in the final match. After the regular season, the Silliman quintet traveled to Cambridge and trounced Kirkland House 4-1 for the inter-University Championship. The eventual champions had little trouble with Trumbull, winning 5-0. Next, Jonathan Ed- wards and Calhoun fell in succession, 4— I. Pier- Captain Alanager son provided little opposition, losing 5—0; Mal- lory extended Bannard to five games in the only close contest. Saybrook was next to succumb, 4—1. Berkeley took but one match, as Worrilow, Ban- nard, Preston and Miller came through to win, 4—1. The Branford Towermen could do little against the Salamanders, who won 5-0. Jonathan Edwards had just upset hitherto undefeated Dav- enport, so that the Salamanders were fighting to avert a tie in the league standings when they set back the Hybrids 4—1. Only Jim Ethridge was able to win for Davenport, Caulkins, Bannard, Miller and Preston giving Silliman victory. Again a tie for the lead was at stake when Timothy Dwight met the leaders. Miller and Preston fell before Chapin and Trudeau, while Caulkins and Bannard defeated Knapp and Harvey. In the final match between Carroll and Worrilow, the Salamanders finally snatched a 3-2 win and the title. 238 Young, Moffitt, Smith, Bomstein, Flaschner Silliman Bowling Charles W. Smith Baroovr Zorthian With the nucleus of the group that won the Intramural Championship in their Fresh- man year and the Intercollege Championship for Vanderbilt in their Sophomore year, Silliman ' s bowlers set up a record of eight wins and one de- feat to nose out Trumbull 30-28 for the title this season. The Salamanders gave up only six points to opponents during the season, three of which went to a Pierson quintet that set up the league ' s high total of 1667 before winning. Led by Captain Charley Smith and Ed Young, the Silliman squad started on the road to the title with a 3-1 win over Branford. Young rolled a 336 to lead the scoring for the day. Against Davenport, Young with 315 was the leader in a 4—0 victory. Against Berkeley Smith took over scoring honors with a 342, Silliman winning 3— I. In the next match the Trumbull Bulls, who were Captain Manager later to provide the biggest threat to the cham- pions, took the last string with a total of 589, but Silliman triumphed 3—1. Young ' s 351 and Flaschner ' s 332 provided the highlights of the evening. Calhoun was an easy victim, succumb- ing 4-0. The Salamanders, bowling without the services of Captain Smith, met their sole conquerors in the next match. McGoldrick ' s season high 384 wa s tops in the 1667 total made by the Pierson Slaves. In spite of this sensational bowling, the Salamanders took the final string to come out on the short end, 3—1. The remainder of the season was a walkaway for the champs. Jonathan Ed- wards, Saybrook and Timothy Dwight all fell 4-0. The Saybrook match saw the Sallies set their high mark, a 1619, aided by Young ' s 160, the highest single string of the year. 239 Back Roil-; E. O ' Donnell (Coach), Bancker (Manager), Conard, J.

Bancker Edward and John O ' Donnell Intercollege wrestling had another successful season this winter. All hut one of last year ' s champions having either graduated or been pro- moted to the Varsity, the competition was ex- tremely keen in all classes but the 121-pound. Challenge matches started immediately after Christmas and were held every Thursday for seven weeks, in order to give every one of the fifty aspirants a chance to wrestle for his college. Helped by the coaches, Eddie and John O ' Don- nell, many of the contestants showed great im- provement, and John Comstock, 135-pounder, who got a chance to wrestle with the Varsity against Tufts, beat his man decisively. Due to a lack of small men, there were no bouts scheduled in the 121-pound class. In the 128-pound class, however, Sophomore Pete Bel- linger and Senior Art Hill fought off all compe- tition during the year and finally met in the finals. .Manager Coaches Bellinger emerging the winner. In the 136-pound class, Glen Comstock easily won over all compe- tition. The 145-pound class crown was fought for by Johnny Kieran and Marty Haber, the latter finally winning. The competition in the 155- pound class was the stiffest ; in the semifinals Dave Munsell won a one-point decision from Rufe Hessberg and then went on to edge out Dick Donovan for the crown. Jack Mueller again won the 165-pound title against competition considerably weaker than last year. In the 175- pound class, Red Conard beat Johnny Young in the finals to win, after the two had exchanged places all year. Art Keefe won heavyweight honors. On the whole, much interest and enthusiasm was shown by winners and losers alike. The win- ners, in recognition of their excellence, received gold charms with their names inscribed. 240 Marckle, Wiss, Goldenbloom, Nunes, Sloan, Baxter, Schooley, Wachsman. Intercollege Fencing The intercollege fencing season was a greater success than in previous years because of a new plan adopted by Coach Grasson and Widdy Neale, the Intramural Director. In the new plan four man teams in epee and saber were organized in each college to compete against each other. Thus a total of eight men represented each col- lege. A round robin affair was conducted between the colleges. Under this system four epee men from one college would fence four epee men from another for a total of sixteen bouts or sixteen points. The same held true for the saber division. Thus a total of thirty-two bouts or points could be secured by each college. If a college came with three men, they were penalized four points or the number of men missing from the required quota of four men. The winning epee team was Branford College, composed of Baxter, Schooley, Sloan, and Wachs- man. They out-fenced Silliman whose team was composed of Panmill, Brinton, Shenfield, and Hart. The saber division was so closely contested that it was necessary for Jonathan Edwards ' team of Lynch, D. W. Lynch, Steinberg, and Schmidt and Trumbull ' s Markle, Nunes, Wiss, and Gold- enbloom to meet three times. The first two fence offs resulted in 8-8 ties, and the last was won by Trumbull 9-7. In recapitulating, individual stars were nu- merous in all colleges, and according to Head Coach Grasson next year ' s Intercollege program will be better and a larger participation of fencers will report, as all those who have entered this year ' s tournaments have felt the spirit and enjoy- ment of competing both as a team member and as individuals winning points for their colleges. 241  a r if x K s fS VM Back Row: Butts (Manager), Pierson, Stevens, Brainard (Trainer), Professor Nangle. Front Row: Simmons, Keefe, Rooney, Alexander (Captain), Burr, Baker, Toland. 1940 Pierson Baseball Cecil A. Alexander Lampkin H. Butts The Pierson team of 1940 created an anoma- lous situation in the intercollege league by winning the championship on its defensive strength. In spite of the mysterious and still un- explained debacle with the Davenports, it held its opponents, by a combination of excellent pitching and steady fielding, to an average of less than four runs per game. From the defensive point of view, the high spot of the season was Gig Gard- ner ' s no-hit no-run game against Branford — an unprecedented event in intercollege circles. The season opened auspiciously with an 1 1—3 triumph over Calhoun; Timothy Dwight went down almost as easily under a 9-2 score. Then followed a close 6—4 victory over Trumbull. About this time Captain Alexander imported his father from the depths of Georgia to serve as the spectator at all games. Alexander senior was re- warded by the blanking of Branford and a 27-7 Captain Manager trouncing of Vanderbilt, which a combination of exhaustion and darkness halted after five fan- tastic innings. Pierson was still undefeated, and needed only two games for an undefeated season. Berkeley ' s scouts were apparently present at the Vanderbilt massacre; at any rate, Berkeley defaulted, and there ensued a period of inactivity. The team took the field against Davenport over-confident, and ripe for the shocking 1 1-4 beating which ensued. By a vagary of the schedule, Pierson had not met the undefeated Jonathan Edwards team and therefore had to inflict a 7-2 defeat upon them to create a tie. With the tie established, a team had to be chosen to play the championship house team from Harvard. The lot fell to Jonathan Ed- wards, but after their encounter with Harvard Pierson administered them another neat 8-j! beat- ing to clinch the championship. 242 Back Roiv: Barnes (Captain), Burgess, Jordan, Dent, Hulburd, McClelland, Shattuck, Anderson. Front Row: Everest (Cox). 1940 Pierson Crew William S. Barnes John H. Burrowes The Intercollege Crew season was one of the most satisfactory ever known, particularly for Pierson College. Having struggled unsuccessfully for several seasons to capture the laurels, success finally blessed the Slave oarsmen. The greatest credit should go to Captain Bill Barnes, who handled the stroke oar and his temperamental mates with unquestionable proficiency. Starting the season on April twelfth, Jonathan Edwards and Trumbull were the first victims of the inspired Slaves. The following week saw them suffer their only defeat during the regular season when Berkeley pushed the bow of her shell over the line just ahead of the losers. As Say- brook and then Davenport were successively trounced Pierson regained her supremacy. On May tenth, the Intercollege championship was won by defeating a much improved Saybrook crew which forced the Slaves to extend them- selves to their utmost. Ca h ttiin Manager Trying to find time between reviewing and Senior comprehensives, practice was continued until May twenty-fifth when Harvard ' s winning crew came to New Haven. The combination of Eliot House ' s new oars, shell and fine oarsmen was too much and open water separated the com- peting boats at the end of the race despite every effort of the Slaves to break the Cantab ' s su- premacy in this sport. Five members of the class of 1940 made up the greater part of the boat, but Anderson in the bow, Shattuck at two and Captain-elect Burgess at seven contributed constant effort throughout the season. Although there was often dissension because of the questionable load being carried in the stern in the form of a coxswain who never did reveal his true weight, it must also be ad- mitted that Everest added greatly to the success of Pierson ' s crew. 243 I y ; - Coleman, Loree, J. Pollock, E. Pollock (Captain), 1940 Berkeley Golf Ed Pollock Stoddard G. Spader For the third successive year the Berkeley golf team was able to maintain its supremacy on the Yale golf course. With three members of 1939s championship team in the ranks, Captain Ed Pol- lock, Judd Pollock and Gordon Stillman only one further position needed to be filled. Hewes, Johnson, Knowles, Coleman, and Loree all alter- nated in this last place. The first Intercollege match was held with Branford. Despite the fact that April showers were doing their best to drown both players and course a team of Ed Pollock, Stillman, Loree and Hewes was able to win 5—1. Jonathan Edwards succumbed 4—2 when they faced the Berkeley team a few days later. On May 8 the Mitres took time off from Intercollege competition just long enough to take the Taft team in a very hotly contested match 5—4. The next scheduled Inter- Captnin Manager college match was with Timothy Dwight but un- fortunately the hopefuls from down yonder were forced to default. Calhoun appeared next on the docket and was decisively defeated 6-0. By virtue of this win Berkeley took the title in League II and earned the right to face Saybrook who had been victorious in League I. The Mitres proved themselves superior and took the Seals 4-2. The match against Harvard ' s Kirkland House, plaved over a soggy course, was a fitting climax to a very successful season. Despite their unfamili- arity with the Belmont links the Berkeley team of Ed Pollock, Judd Pollock, Hewes, Coleman, Johnson and Loree was able to whitewash the Cantabs by a score of 9-0. Earlier in the season a team of Ed Pollock, Judd Pollock, Jim Johnson and Hob Loree had won the Paul Haviland Tournament. 244 Viets, Southworth, Jones (Captain), Kennedy, Wilmer, Rosenthal, Emery, Kuhie. 1940 Timothy Dwight Tennis John G. Wilmer Wallace T. Viets Under the leadership of Grant Wilmer, its captain and twice Intercollege singles cham- pion, the Timothy Dwight tennis team swept undefeated through all opposition to roll up a total of 52 J ? individual matches to their op- ponents ' 9J-2. After a shaky start, in which Jona- than Edwards, 1939 champions, were edged by a 4-3 margin, the Timothy Dwight machine gathered momentum to defeat all their later rivals by substantial margins and then to crush Win- throp House of Harvard in a post season match, 5-0. Aside from Wilmer, the outstanding men on the team were Kenned) ' , ' 42, Rumbough, ' 42, Jones, ' 40S, and Rosenthal, ' 41, who played the next four positions, respectively. Stan Kennedy ' s im- proved game made him one of the best men in Intercollege circles, so that when Wilmer gradu- ated to the varsity near the end of the season, Captain Manager Kennedy filled the number one position excel- lently. Stan Rumbough added many matches to the Timothy Dwight total, and Tom Jones and Art Rosenthal both went through undefeated seasons. Jerry Milbank, ' 42, and Don Kubie, ' 42, were also consistent winners ; while contesting for the last position were Clark, ' 42, Emery, ' 42, Southworth, ' 41, and Chapin, ' 42, all very capa- ble performers. One contributing factor in Tim- othy Dwight ' s success was the high quality of the reserve material that could from time to time be substituted for absentees. Tennis proved to be a very profitable sport for Timothy Dwight, for aside from a few points for the Intercollege singles championship, it also re- ceived a large number for its tennis team, and these pointed coming late in the year were a big factor in bringing the Tyng Cup to Timothy Dwight. 245 CLUBS Naval Reserve Officers ' Training Corps Battal Battal Battal Battal Battal Battal, on Commander: Cadet Lieutenant Commander Kenneth F.

While the jute boxes were resound- ing with the Whiffenpoof song via Rudy Vallee, there were more engagements than ever. The fall started off with a bang, and the pace seems likely to continue throughout the spring. It was only between singing parties that anyone found time to work last fall. Dashing from one banquet to another and with the football after- noons filled with parties, the time flew by. It seemed as though they covered every Alumni banquet from Maine to Philadelphia and every- where the patrons clamored for more. It was in- deed a gay autumn. Christmas vacation found the Whiffs happier than ever as members of the Yale Glee Club on the Western trip. Being featured on the pro- gram and living on the railroad for two weeks was hard on some, but they all managed to sur- vive — and with voices better than ever. It was indeed a pleasure to bring these favorite old songs again to the hearts of Yale men in such cities as Cleveland, Detroit, Cincinnati, and St. Paul. Theses and exams loomed large during the winter but the table down at Morv ' s on Mon- day evenings was as exciting as ever with songs again filling the rooms. Trips to the proms at Vassar and Smith were climaxed by an exhausting weekend of singing at our own Junior Prom. Spring vacation meant the finishing of the theses, and the lid will be off for the few remain- ing warmer weeks. Weekend picnics and parties are planned at the various schools with much informal singing and (beer). These are usually the happiest and most carefree days. Coupled with this then will be a great celebration in honor of the Whiffs at the 21 Club in New York City. Time will not permit the usual appearances at the Rainbow Room and some of the big hotels. When graduation smiles upon this year ' s herd of Black Sheep there will have been witnessed another year of friendship, joy, and good singing, arising from Yale ' s truly Gentlemen Songsters. 262 Back Row: Springer, Dodge, Le Bar; Front Roic: Levy, Schluederberg, Walradt, Lucey, Comly. The Orpheus and Bacchus Club The Orpheus and Bacchus Club was formed in the college year 1939—40, as a social organ- ization, by several members of the class of 1 940 and its present leader, I. F. Walradt, 1941. At the beginning of the present college year, Wal- radt reorganized the Club along more musical lines, choosing seven other members of the Yale Glee Club to constitute the O. B. ' s personnel. Although there were over twelve members in the original group, the present Orpheus and Bacchus Club is an octet, and will continue as such in future years. As one of the newest of Yale organ- izations, the O. B. hopes to establish itself as representative of the best in octet singing at Yale. The leader of the Club has charge of its policy ; he also chooses the members and the leader for the succeeding year. Present membership of the O. B. includes five Seniors, two Juniors, and one Sophomore. They are as follows : Irving F. Walradt, ' 41 — first bass, and leader of the present Club. Edward D. Lucey, ' 41 — first bass. Lucey is a soloist in the Yale Glee Club. Hunter H. Comly, ' 41 S. — second tenor. Comly is also a soloist in the Yale Glee Club. Robert S. Schluederberg, ' 41 — second tenor. Paul L. Springer, ' 41 — second bass. A. Douglas Dodge, ' 42 — first tenor. Dodge is President-elect of the Yale Glee Club. Ralph L. Levy, Jr., ' 42 — first tenor. Levy is a soloist in the Yale Glee Club, and will be the leader of next year ' s O. B. Frank M. Le Bar, Jr., ' 43 — second bass. 263 Back Rou - Greene, Thompson, Peake, Olsen.

After years of degeneration the group croaked its final an- them, at the suggestion of the Dean ' s Office, to become another of Yale ' s dormant chapters. One score and ten years later, on the Ides of March, disaster struck Yale between College and . Despite attempts at sabotage by the Dean ' s Office, eight carefree lads banded to- gether to join their voices in song as had their forefathers. The Spizzwinks? had been reborn. Under the expert tutelage of Ed Clippity Clapp, without whose patient guidance the Spizz- winks? would never again have flourished, they had by June learned Wake, Freshmen, Wake by heart, and knew Aura Lee cold — at best a commendable feat. This fall, undaunted by snubs from the cog- noscenti on several notable occasions, the Spizz- winks? gritted their teeth, got down to some real work, and polished off Gaudeamus Igitur. Then came their first real break. They were audi- tioned by the Connecticut College Prom Com- mittee and were pronounced comparable in reper- toire and ability to THAT group, and the word began to spread around. With this dubious dis- tinction under their belts the Spizzwinks? pro- cured additional engagements at Vassar Proms, several Alumni dinners, the Yale Hope Mission, and the opening of the Del Bar and Grille — well, the less said about that the better. For further in- formation see Mac. Despite a shakeup of parts due to a recent epi- demic of mumps, the Spizzwinks? are rapidly ap- proaching their first anniversary of reorganiza- tion with high hopes of many more mad, gay, giddy nights of laughter and song. 264 Back Row: Phil, Pierre, The Roooooone, Le Front Populaire, Phil II, Wild Bill, Hermann.

But Sem is so horse du combat after moving the Bureau for the umteenth time, that he has been forced to toss in the sponge — or as Annie would correct me, he has been coerced to cast up the towel. The WHITEWASHER embryo germinated from a seed planted Freshman year somewhere along the McClellan-Farnam-Lawrence-Welch axis. This organic mass of protoplasm came to full bloom one autumn evening Sophomore year when a nefarious scheme to confound the authori- ties of Silliman College (a plan whereby all the sample brick walls erected in Vanderbilt Square would be made less distinctive through the appli- cation of a liberal coat of whitewash) struck a reef in the form of the ever-hovering campus cops — or reasonable facsimiles thereof. From that day, however, the Whitewashers have enjoyed an unbroken series of weekly dog- gerels around the festive boards of the different colleges — and Timothy Dwight. No business, nothing to buy, no new delegations, no red tape. The only grim factor that we have had to cope with was the inevitable grouse by the fastidious Busher (h e, of the amorphous proboscis) con- cerning the ubiquitous leg of lamb. However our frugal repasts were not but half the life-blood of our organization. Nor snow, nor cold, nor sleepless nights keep us from our ap- pointed semi-annual picnics the Sundays-after-the- Saturdays before. From the rockbound coasts (cliche 7-3131) of Long Guyland Sound to the rugged peaks of the Sleepy Giant, from Perry ' s Spool to Stuff ' s house, have we Normans found and enjoyed the good life. Good old days? Aye, they were all of that and more. Yet we will not allow ourselves to regret their passing, for we shall always have them with us as fond memories of enriching ex- periences — memories which suggest, perhaps, that our happiest days together are yet still ahead. But somewhere a voice is calling. We are go- ing, gentlemen, we are going — ■ 265 The Yale Corinthian Yacht Club 1940-1941 Robert Hardy Matheson John Markell, Jr. John Herbert Ware, Jr. Richard Waterman Besse John Herbert Ware, Jr. Henry Hill Anderson, Jr. Erik K.

Weitzel 266 The Yale Corinthian Yacht Club has had a long and colorful career with its origin in the Yale Sailing Club which existed somewhere back in the misty eighties when sail-lugging in the face of a gale was the distinguishing characteristic of the Eli sailors in their grandiose and daring undertakings. Late in 1927 the present club was organized under able and enthusiastic leadership. The success was immediate. During the first years not a single championship was dropped to the big- college rivals. The club flag before its third birth- day was flying from the masthead of the schooner Chance on her successful voyage around the world, and was carried by Vice-Commodore Briggs Cunningham ' s six-metre Lucie in the Med- iterranean and on a new eight in England and Norway. Dinghy sailing was taken up in 1937 when the present commodore ' s brother encouraged the pur- chase of approximately a dozen eleven-and-a-half- foot X boats. Half of these were still with the club when it began its activities in the spring of 1940. They were kept at the New Haven Yacht Club on the edge of Morris Cove out at the Harbor ' s mouth. The dingies were used for sailing and practice rather than racing as has been done in the recent past. The record compiled by the sailors at their various weekend dingy regattas was not striking, yet it had its redeeming features. In the big event of the year, the Mc- Millan Cup races held annually in June, two crews sailed themselves into a handsome third place on the shallow waters of Barnegat Bay. Jack Ware, a member of the Intercollegiate Yacht Racing Association executive committee, won top scoring honors with a record of five firsts and a second in as fast a fleet as one would ever hope to see. His teammate Bob Clark ' s dis- qualification while racing in the scow division hurt the combined score considerably. The fall organization meeting swelled the club ' s ranks to fifty with the induction of a large group of young, skillful, and enthusiastic sailors. In the first competition of the fall Yale outsailed the Naval Academy in an excitin g fifteen-mile match race in the Navy ' s new forty-five-foot racing yawls. Next to succumb was the Coast Guard Academy in a closely contested series of team races in Stars and International 14-footers at New London. In the several big dinghy re- gattas that followed the Corinthians showed great promise but no silverware. During the winter the sole activity consisted of racing the club-owned X dinghy Thunder at the Larch- mount Yacht Club. The spring program was and Coast Guard Academies. With the last- named there has appeared the bud of a great rivalry which promises to produce many close and exciting races in their fine modern fleet of stars and International twelve and fourteen footers. The fact that the Academy is so close to New Haven adds much to the practicability of such a situation. The McMillan Cup at Marblehead concluded the best year in the history of sailing at Yale. Richard W. Besse Admirable admiral 267 Rugby Association Opening its 1 94 1 season with three games in Nassau against the Nassau Rugby Club, the Yale Rugby Team had a highly successful trip. The Nassaunians retained possession of the two silver cups given to the winner of the open- ing game and the series. All three games were closely contested, Yale being defeated 6— O, 9-0, and 6-3. The last game, by far the most exciting, was made even more colorful when His Royal Highness, the Duke of Windsor, kicked off the first ball. The Elis seemed to be definitely an improved team due to the aid of a little pre-season practice and some expert coaching. Despite vastly im- proved play, veteran Walter Rafferty scored the only successful try. An unusually hard tackling and aggressive pack of forwards featured Frank Kemp and Spencer Moseley. Sir Harry Wheeler, outstanding for his tireless play and leadership, had nothing but praise for the spirit and quality of his team. Using a new system with only a seven-man scrum, permitting an additional man in the back- field, the Yale attack was marked by more speed and better ball handling. Bartholemy was out- standing at the very difficult position of scrum- half. Art Howe, who played the game in England, added a great deal to the team because of his power and knowledge of the fly-half position. For the third successive year, the brilliant running and kicking of Hovey Seymour was an outstand- ing feature of the backfield. The interest in Rugby at Yale was sufficient to warrant an eight-game home schedule, opened by the New York Rugby Club and featured by Princeton and Harvard. Losing practically no members of this year ' s team, Yale is pointing for top honors in the International Series with Nas- sau as well as in the Eastern Rugby Union next season.

Harris, Trudeau, Ski Team While the Ski Team lacks any official rec- ognition by the University, its place among the undergraduates has been made secure. During the last five years it has constantly been a threat in intercollegiate circles and some of its members have gained reputations as skiers of top-notch calibre. With two-thirds of the student body now actively interested in skiing, the team will soon take its rightful position beside other Yale ath- letic organizations. This year six men made the nucleus of a suc- cessful aggregation which scored impressive tri- umphs over some of the best kanonen in the East. In the Annual College Week competition at Lake Placid the team, led by Captain Gayle Aiken, defeated six other colleges including Mid- dlebury, Williams and Minnesota. Juniors Car- penter, Case, Harris, Rumbough and Trudeau and Senior Charley Stiassni completed the team. At Williamstown in its second and last team meet of the season Yale was edged out by Wil- liams but once again downed Middlebury. The all around points gathered by Aiken and Vince Carpenter were important factors in the final showing. Individually the team members made a good showing in the weekly meets throughout the season. Carpenter gained a reputation in the Vermont Slalom Championships when he finished fifteenth out of two hundred. Trudeau ' s brilliant jumping and Harris ' third in the F. I. S. and fifth at the Lake Placid Sno Birds Tournament against the best in the country indicated that the Eli skiers had to be reckoned with. The team will miss the leadership of consistent Gayle Aiken, but under the guidance of Manager Jessup and Captain-elect Carpenter it is looking forward to next year, and perhaps some reward from the Athletic Association. 269 Mory ' s Association OFFICERS FOR 1941 JOHN L.

Long Walter Czehura George Day Thomas Dunn EDITORS William Evans Larry Goldmuntz Edward Harris William Hilbert Clu J. L. McEvitt Bernard O ' Shea Stephen Stack Tin Yale Freshman Weekly serves as a unique medium for Freshman expression on any topic of int erest to the class. Its columns are open to the divers contributions which a broad and flexible policy inevitably attracts. In selecting material for publication the editors are governed not by a majority opinion as such, but by the provocative and stimulating effect upon Fresh- man readers. The magazine is unique in that its scope is not limited to the literary, nor is it con- fined to duplicating the function of a newspaper. We have printed sincere Freshman contributions of every type; we have not presumed, by solicit- ing material of a specific nature, to shape the char- acter of the Weekly. We have established no tra- ditions to restrict future Boards. And we hope they will strive to be a vital force, skeptical, and exasperatingly critical. 290 FORTY-FOUR h a s made some important contributions to the de- velopment of the four- y e a r old Freshman Weekly: With return- ing prosperity it stepped forth in a new two-color cover and a finer quality paper. More subscrip- tions were sold than ever before; more Freshman News was covered, par- ticularly in Sports. Much of this news was not published elsewhere in Yale. Many featured Columns, poems, stories and essays maintained the literary value of this medium for Freshman expression. Here follows a telescoped series of excerpts: FORTY-FOUR UNCOVERS DOUBLE CROSS Joseph Cross never existed! All the writings and evidence attributed to him were really written by two virgin authors by the names of Johnson and Pauker. FREFHMAN LAWS - 1786 II.

Freshman Glee Club The Freshman Glee Club, like all other musi- cal activities at Yale, has been growing rap- idly during the past twenty years. For many years Yale had something that went by the name of Freshman Glee Club. Not too well organized, it didn ' t fulfill its purpose in selecting, organizing and training the singing talent of each incoming class. When Arthur Hall took over the Freshman Glee Club in the fall of 1930 things began to happen. By that time there were between 75 and IOO candidates for the Freshman Glee Club and under his direction the best of these men began to make their presence felt as a really respectable singing unit. Since then, the organization has made steady and consistent progress, has for several years had a concert schedule of its own and has at the close of each Freshman Year turned over a sizeable group of well-trained and well-routined singers as candidates for the Yale Glee Club. What is more, it has fulfilled a very important function in bringing together at the beginning of its life at Yale the musically talented members of each class, teaching them Yale songs and form- ing in this way a singing nucleus which carries on with important and constructive results. The popularity and success of this regime can be measured by the gradually increasing number of candidates for each Freshman Glee Club as the years go by and the loyalty and interests shown as proven by the excellent record of attendance at the rehearsals. The number of candidates for the club has been better than 150 during the last four years and reached its peak last fall when 180 members of the class of 1944 took individual voice trials. To a large extent concert schedules are ar- ranged with preparatory schools within afternoon traveling distance of New Haven. The first con- cert of the year was given at Hillside School. The concert was preceeded by a buffet supper and fol- lowed by a dance given in the school gymnasium. Other concerts on the schedule are with Dwight School, Wykeham Rise School, Low-Heywood, and Westover School. 292 Back Roiv: Fields, Stack, Wagstaff, Taylor.

Neale Secretary of In tram lira I Athletics Freshman teams at Yale during the past year have engaged in 155 contests, winning 98, losing 53, and tying 4 games. The squash and wrestling teams completed the season without a defeat. The track, cross country, swimming, as well as the squash and wrestling teams, won the Big Three Championship. What was considered our strongest football team in the past three years tied Princeton and decisively defeated Harvard. Probably the most outstanding record of all the freshman teams was compiled by the wrestling team coached by John O ' Donnell. The Yale Freshman wrestlers have won the Big Three Championship for six consecutive years. Captain J. Chaffee ' s team won from Gilman, Choate, Exeter, Cranston High School, Princeton, Wyo- ming Seminary and Harvard, finishing the sec- ond successive season undefeated. Captain J. Chaffee and W. Macomber won all their bouts. After two remarkable undefeated seasons, Coach Irving Newton ' s freshman swimming team lost to Mercersburg Academy 36-30. This year ' s team, captained by R. C. Bennett, won 12 of the 13 dual meets, defeating Princeton and Harvard handily and winning the Big Three Championship for the third successive year. Captain Richard Cooley led his squash team against six opponents without a loss, defeating Princeton 6-1, and Harvard 5—0. Coach John Skillman ' s varsity team should be strengthened next year by this freshman team, which generally played in the following order: R. P. Cooley, John C. Holt, R. H. Williams, R. L. McKenna and T. C. Clifford. The track and cross country teams, captained by K. Ellis and Le R. C. Schwarzkopf, respec- tively, won from both Princeton and Harvard. These squads have a number of outstanding per- formers who will give added strength to the var- sity ; especially Le R. C. Schwarzkopf in the mile run. Starting slowly with a tie game against Ando- ver and a loss to Exeter, the 1944 Freshman foot- ball team found itself in mid-season defeating a strong Brown Freshman team, Hebron Academy, tying Princeton 13-13, and ending the season with a 27—12 victory over the Harvard Freshman team. Members of this team will immediately help the varsity. This is especially true in the back- field positions, where the Freshmen are better than average material. Of the other Freshman Sports, crew and hockey won from Princeton and lost to Harvard ; and the golf, lacrosse, tennis and basketball teams won from Harvard and lost to Princeton. Those students not making the varsity squads in the majority of sports have an opportunity to play with one of the four Freshman Intramural Unit teams. These four Units, namely, North, South, North Middle and South Middle, are di- vided equally as to members. Intramural sports in its present state gives every boy an opportunity to play with some team, according to his athletic ability. Interest is enhanced by an All- Year Champion- ship competition, wherein teams in a league are awarded points according to their relative position in the league. The teams are always conscious of this competition, and are striving to gain a higher position in any league for the added number of points obtained for their Unit. The award is an outing for all members of the winning Unit, who have participated during the year. Last year, South Unit won the Ail-Year Championship, and the outing was held at Cedar Crest Camp. 294 Back Row: Gatsos, Carpenter (Manager), Wright, Root (Coach), Block, Wyman.

Carpenter Captain Manager AFTER the inevitable shaky start, this year ' s l Freshman Football Team was moulded into a powerful, balanced unit, compiling a very success- ful record. On October 5, after a mere two weeks of prac- tice, the Freshmen journeyed to Andover and played a 7—7 tie. John Ferguson, later elected Captain, ran back the opening kick-off for a touch- down, but the team ' s running attack was not suffi- ciently polished to produce another score. The following week a strong Exeter team gave Yale its only defeat of the season. Lethargic during most of the first half, the Freshmen saw three touchdowns scored against them, yet they came back in the second half, with Ferguson scoring twice, to lose 20—12. On October 19 the Freshmen defeated Brown 14—7. Frank Mahoney, who scored thirteen of the fourteen points, excelled running through the line. After a two week rest which gave the coaches much needed time, the team submerged a highlv touted Hebron team in the rain 31— O. Monk Meyer outdid himself, scoring three touchdowns. On Xovember 9 the Freshmen tied a strong Princeton team, 13—13. Yale outgained Prince- ton by a good margin, but the latter capitalized on its opportunities. Fred Dent scored all of Yale ' s points, receiving two touchdown passes from Fer- guson and making the conversion. The highlight of the game was Will Overlock ' s great exhibition of tackling, a decisive factor in holding back the big Tiger backs. The following Saturday the team defeated Har- vard soundly, 27-12. Ferguson and Ed Taylor ran well despite the driving snow and scored two touchdowns each. Tim Hoopes, having recuper- ated from a mid-season injury, turned in an out- standing performance at end. 295 Back Roiv: Tolles (Manager), Lilley, Ver Planck, Anderson, Bulkeley, J.

Tolles The Freshman Soccer Team started its season with five wins and one tie ; then came Prince- ton and Harvard and two defeats — 2-1 and 3-0 respectively. Springfield College and Andover were newcomers to the Yale schedule this year and, though reputedly strong, were defeated handily by the Blue hooters. On October 5, 1940, Hotchkiss was defeated 5-1 by the efforts of Jack Hopkins, elected Cap- tain later in the season, Fleischmann, Outer- bridge, Guirey and Twining. On October 12 a lone goal by Jack Hopkins defeated Williston Academy 1-0. Then on October 23 the Spring- field College Freshmen were defeated 5—1 by a well-functioning Eli team. A week later the Blue fought to a 1-1 tie with Choate, Chirg Guirey scoring the only Yale goal. At Andover, on November 2, the Freshmen won 3—1, in a cold, driving rain, Andover ' s only Captain Manager goal coming at the end of the game, too late to do any good. On November 9 Taft was crushed by the Blue ' s power. Jack Lilley scored three goals and Chirg Guirey registered two more, account- ing for the major portion of the 7-0 score. On November 16 the Freshmen lost to Prince- ton. Yale scored first, but Princeton soon tied the score and, improving noticeably as the game pro- gressed, finally in the closing minutes of the game managed to score a second goal to win. For the final game of the season, on November 23, Har- vard appeared in New Haven with a strong team that included a particularly effective goalie. The first half was tightly contested, but late in the game the Harvard offensive began to click, and the Crimson emerged with a 3—0 victory. Except for the rather unhappy finale, the season was a successful one. 296 Freshman Cross Country LeRoy C. Schwarzkopf Roger S. McCormick Featured by victories over Harvard and Princeton, the 1 940 Freshman Cross Coun- try season was the most successful one in several years. In Captain LeRoy Schwarzkopf and in Wilmot Castle, the team had two men of out- standing ability. Schwarzkopf placed first in four meets, was a close second in the Intercollegiates, and twice shattered the record for the local Freshman course. Castle was second to the Eli captain in every meet but one. The season opened with a complete victory over Wesleyan, Castle, Coffin, Cleaver, and Gard- ner all finishing ahead of the first Wesleyan man. A week later the Freshmen lost a close fight to a strong University of Connecticut team, 29—27. Schwarzkopf ' s new record for the three mile course of 16:21 took some sting out of the defeat. The climax of the season from the Yale stand- point came in the annual Big Three meet when the Cubs defeated both Harvard and Princeton, Captain Manager by 25—32 and 28-30, respectively. Again Schwarz- kopf led the field by a large margin. Castle sprinted in one second ahead of Palson of Har- vard to take second place, while Gardner of Yale finished fourth. The following week in New Haven the Freshmen succumbed, 24—33, to a very strong Dartmouth team. Schwarzkopf, in beating Dartmouth ' s star Burnham by thirteen seconds set the present Freshman course record of sixteen minutes and ten seconds. The season was terminated on November 18 at Van Cortland Park with the Eastern Intercol- legiate run. Out of the 104 runners, Schwarz- kopf finished in second place, two seconds behind Hart of Temple, and Castle was third. In addi- tion, running for Yale were Gardner, Coffin, MacEachron, and Brown. Despite these stellar efforts Yale finished only tenth out of the fifteen teams competing.

Freshman Basketball Edwin L. Dils John B. Houston WITH one of the tallest squads in recent years the Freshman Basketball Team completed a successful season, winning ten games and losing only four. A defeat by Princeton prevented the team from gaining the Big Three title, but vic- tories over Harvard, Andover, and Exeter proved the caliber of the Cub five. With only two days of practice after Christmas the Freshmen easily defeated Hillhouse, 27-21, but two nights later lost to an experienced Jun- ior College of Commerce team, 39-28. Their play rapidly improved, and the Yearlings won the next six games with Commercial, Choate, Hor- ace Mann, Peekskill, and the Junior College of Connecticut. Solving Exeter ' s tricky zone defense in the second half, the Blue won 38-31. Dart- mouth in one of the season ' s best games finally broke their winning streak, overcoming a ten-point Yale lead to gain a 45—43 victory. Captain Manager Following a defeat at the hands of Cheshire, the Freshman came back strongly to defeat An- dover and Milford. Then a powerful Princeton quintet invaded New Haven and outplayed the Cubs to the tune of 42—23. Concluding the sea- son the following week end in Cambridge, the Freshmen regained their form and decisively de- feated Harvard 49-33 ; they led, 29-9, at the half. This year ' s team was well balanced and showed an aggressive spirit ; no one man being outstand- ing. The tall boys, Kheen Berry, Ed Taylor, and Austin Norton made good use of their height under the basket in getting the ball off the back- board. Captain Ed Dils and Frank Kearney were expert at fast breaks and set shots. With a sea- son ' s total of 136 points Kearney was the team ' s high scorer, closely followed by Captain Dils and Norton. Coach Williamson turned in his usual fine coaching job. 298 Back Roiv: Semple (Manager), Hurd, Pierson, Seelbach, Anderson, Neville, Ellis, McLena- ghan, Holt (Coach).

Semple Captain Manager THE 1940-41 Freshman Hockey Team under the tutelage of Harry Holt chalked up a record of eight wins and four defeats. Although the defense was generally weak, it was more than offset by two excellent lines ; consequently the season was marked by high scoring, fast skating and many thrilling closing minutes. The Freshmen journeyed to Kent for their first game in which Captain Guernsey bagged four goals in the last period to win the game 6—3. In their first home game they defeated Choate 3— I. Then an ex-varsity opponent Brock Hall com- pletely outclassed the Cubs, 6—1. However, the enthusiastic sextet came back fighting to defeat Hotchkiss 5—1, Exeter 4-2, and Cheshire 12-1. Mt. St. Charles was also added to the string of victories in an overtime game, 8-7. The Fresh- man came from behind to win with the firs t line accounting for all 8 goals. The honors again must go to Captain Guernsey who accounted for 4 of the 8 while Joe Tilghman and Jim Wright got 2 apiece. Then Deerfield ' s stalwart defense held down the high scoring Freshman to win out 3—1. Heb- ron, annually a tough opponent, was downed 8-6. The high point in the season was reached when Princeton was defeated 7—5 in a thrilling over- time game. However, the Harvard game was dropped 4—6 in spite of the valiant efforts of the second line of Burgwin, Tracy, and Wallace to take over the duties of the first line which had lost Guernsey due to illness. Captain Guernsey was the bulwark of the team with his inspiring leadership and play. Jack Tracy was a standout on the second line. Mouk Meyer, who was changed from line to defense, improved steadily throughout the season. John Neville filled the other defense post commendably all year. 299 Back Row: Newton (Coach), Drake, Fleischmann, Morton, Bamford, Freeman, Wieboldt, Keat- ing, McClure (Manager).

McClure, Jr. With a team more nearly average than those of the last two years, the 1944 swim- mers continued a winning streak that started over two years ago. On March I, the Yearlings finally met their nemesis in a strong Mercersburg team, losing 36-30. The last time the Freshmen had been defeated was on March 9, 1938, when the Princeton Frosh downed them. In the in- terim, Coach Newton ' s squads had won forty straight meets. Among those who bowed before the Yearling natators were Pawtucket High School, the Big Brothers Association of Philadelphia, led by John Macionis, former Eli swimming luminary, and Exeter. Next the Yale Frosh set four new Na- tional College Freshman Long Course Records against Hillhouse High School. In the 300-yard medley relay, John Manvel, Jay Drake, and Bill Conkling set a mark of 3:17, Dick Mann bested the existing 220 standard in 2:31.4, Captain Bob Captain Alanaaer Bennett swam the century in the fast time of 55 seconds, and Bob Cowan teamed with Conkling, Mann, and Bennett to set a new 400-yard relay mark of 3:54.9. After this Hartford Public High School, Naugatuck Y.M.C.A., Lawrenceville, Montclair Y.M.C.A., and Hotchkiss fell be- fore the Yearlings. In the final two meets the 1944 mermen con- quered their Princeton and Harvard rivals, 41-34 and 45—30 respectively. Captain Bennett ' s 53.2 seconds in the 100 against Princeton highlighted the retaining of the Big Three Championship by the Eli Cubs for the third straight year. The Freshmen managed to score 536 points to their opponents 339, which is admirable consider- ing that only once was the full strength of the team used. Outstanding performers, besides Ben- nett, include Conkling, and Alarm in the freestyle, John Manvel in the backstroke, and Ted Davidge in the breaststroke. 300 Freshman Squash Richard Cooley Carden R. McLean Starting off against a seasoned Y.M.C.A. Squash Team on January 23, the Eli Cubs won handily, 4—1. The following Friday, Choate ' s team met defeat, 5-0. Bob McKenna, a former Choate player, starring for Yale. The Williams Freshmen met a similar setback on February 8 when the Yearlings won, 5-0. Probably the most formidable test the Freshmen faced all season was the match with an experienced New Haven Lawn Club Squash team led by a former Yale Freshman star, Walter Camp, Jr. Although Camp and two other Lawn Club players triumphed, the Freshmen racqueteers emerged victorious, 4—3. On February 19, Yale earned a crushing 5-0 win over the Wesleyan VJniversity J.V. squash- men. Next Princeton ' s much-vaunted Freshmen bowed 6-1 to Yale on Washington ' s birthday and thereafter the Freshmen commenced preparations for their final two climax matches, with an un- Captain lanager defeated Exeter team, and the Harvard Fresh- men. The men chosen to face the formidable Exeter contingent on the latter ' s courts in New Hamp- shire were: Dick Cooley, Jack Holt, Bob Mc- Kenna, Bob Williams, and Bill Clough, who had just edged out Tom Clifford for the number five position. The Elis vindicated Johnny Skillman ' s faith in them by winning decisively, 4-1. The first week in March witnessed many hotly contested challenge matches between the Fresh- men for places on the team to play Harvard, March 8. Dick Cooley s consistently smart smash- ing play met a double reward: he maintained his number one post and was unanimously elected captain of the team, March 4. After weathering the worst blizzard Boston had seen in years, the Cubs met and defeated the Harvard Freshman Squash Team, 5-0. Freshman Wrestling John L. H. Chafee James W. Bancker, Jr. A strong Freshman Wrestling Team com- pleted their eight-match schedule unde- feated, stretching Coach Johnny O ' Donnell ' s rec- ord to five successive Big Three Championships. Opening with Staples High School, the Fresh- men crushed their opponents 38—0, seven out of eight Elis pinning their men. The next Saturday they again showed their power by beating a good Gilman team 33-3. The Freshmen then jour- neyed up to Choate and won 25—5, Dick Reade and George Hauer each winning by a fall. John Chafee was elected captain immediately after the match. The next week Exeter was the victim of a 25—5 defeat, George Hauer again pinning his man. Bill Macomber also won by a fall. Cranston High School was the next team to fall, 19-13. At Princeton, the Cubs beat the Orange and Black 17— II. John Garvan, Dick Reade, Pete Brown, John Chafee and Bill Macomber all won. The Captain Manager next week Wyoming Seminary provided ex- tremely tough competition, finally yielding 14-12. In the best bout of the day Bill Macomber came out from under to pin his man in the last 15 seconds. In the last meet of the season the Cubs downed a weak Harvard team, 27—3. Captain John Chafee and Bill Macomber re- mained undefeated throughout the season. Ma- comber was high scorer with 34 points and five pins, while George Hauer was close behind with 33 points and six pins. Dick Reade and Charley- Dayton in the 136-pound class, and Jack Bolton and Frannie Wilson in the 128-pound class alter- nated during the season, but the other spots were held down regularly by Johnny Garvan, 121, George Hauer, 145, Pete Brown, 155, John Chafee, 165, Bill Macomber, 175, and George Ruebel, heavyweight, though John Duff wrestled once for Ruebel.

Freshman Fencing Richard K. Shannon William H. Haggard With its record of two wins and five losses and one tie, the Freshman Fencing season, on paper, does not appear to have been a striking success, but the season was characterized by an enthusiasm and determination to win which does not show up in the won and lost columns. Seri- ously handicapped by the lack of previous experi- ence, the team worked hard throughout the sea- son, and faced the difficulties that accompany a schedule which is being repeatedly changed be- cause of grippe and measles suffered by oppo- nents. The season opened with an informal match against Commercial High School which resulted in a 13 2—13 2 tie. The Elis were defeated by a polished Worcester Academy team 18-9. Al- though Shannon, Trower, and Wallace took five matches between them in the epee class to take a close 5-4 decision, a failure to get more than two Captain Manager out of a possible nine points in either sabre or foils doomed the Yearlings to defeat. Strauss ' and Peterson ' s win in the foils and Zische ' s and Tuck- er ' s victories in the sabre, in addition to the points won in foil and epee, accounted for all the Elis points. The next match, with Hopkins Gram- mar, proved another sore 16— 11 defeat for the Cubs. The first win of the season came in the match with the Cranwell Preparatory School of Lenox, Massachusetts. The Elis managed to come out on top 14 -12 . Meeting Cheshire Academy the succeeding week end the Freshmen won 16— 1 1 . The team traveled to Loomis to lose 14 2-12 2- Against the Tiger team at Princeton, the Elis fared poorly, emerging as they did on the short side of a 16-11 score. The concluding contest of the year with Harvard was a thrilling meet throughout although the Elis lost 17-10. 303 f f § 1 § 9 p  ' •1  EPp5 K ] ft 1 mBe I ' ll lli mi Back Roil-: Gaylord (Manager), Hook (Coach), Jones, Chesney, Mitchel, Haywood, Slane, Maher (Coach).

Gaylord Cup tain Manager Freshmen rifle experienced its biggest and most successful season since the inception of the sport at Yale ten years ago. An extremely well-balanced squad made up of eighteen men was chosen from the sixty who turned out in October. The team compiled a record of thirteen victories and nine defeats in postal matches with no losses in its two shoulder-to-shoulder events. During the first three weeks of the season the Freshman dropped their first three contests, los- ing to Rutgers 1244-1261, Minnesota 1304- 1327, and Purdue 1 244-1 348. On January 25, however, the tide turned ; Yale was able to down Army I304-I250and Virginia Polytechnic 1292- 1192. The Yale score, February 8, of 1298 beat St. John ' s 1267 but was beaten by the Far Rock- away High School ' s 1321. Yale ' s 1317 on Febru- ary 22 was able to subdue Hawaii, Maryland, and Chicago but failed to top Tennessee. The only bright spot of the week of March I was the shoulder-to-shoulder victory over the M.I.T. Freshman 1312-1230. Navy, Cornell, and the Phoenix Junior College all defeated Yale. The journey to Harvard March 7 resulted in an over- whelming Yale triumph 1338-1192. Wyland and Weaver tied for top scoring honors with totals of 273 apiece. Although Brown was unable to beat Yale ' s 1338 in the week ' s postal matches, Illinois ' 1372 proved too much for the Yale marks- men and thus gave the Elis their ninth defeat. Although no man on the team was outstanding Captain Wyland proved the most consistent shot while Weaver, Haywood, Mitchell and Tishman all contributed to making the year a success, 304 Freshman Indoor Polo Lester Armour, Jr. William M. Hunt Captain Manager Unfortunately this year ' s Freshman Polo Team was not up to the standards of pre- vious years. It is expected that the players will improve and become good varsity material. At the first practice, however, there was only one boy, Lester Armour, who had ever played indoor polo before. Armour proved to be the mainstay of the team and was elected captain soon after the sea- son had gotten under way. In spite of constant efforts to get started the Cubs were never work- ing well as a unit. The improvement of Ching Guirey and Jake Reams was very encouraging and makes the poor scores seem a little too pessi- mistic as to the real ability of the team. In the first game of the year the team bowed to Avon in a sloppy game by both aggregations. Later on in the season, however, Yale ' s trio defeated the same outfit in New Haven. In the next game Macdonough proved too strong for the battling Yearlings. It was the defeat by Princeton, though, that hurt most of all. During the season the team was shifted about several times but in the end Guirey played num- ber i, Captain Armour number 2, and Jake Reams at back with Ned Cook and Charlie Mead as substitutes. The dirth of material was given the utmost attention by Major Hill, who did an out- standing job and deserves the praise of all con- nected with Yale Polo. Major Hill has been transferred and will no longer coach these boys, but whatever they do in polo in the future will be largely due to the knowledge and pains which Ma- jor Hill took with them during the past season. It is hoped that the outdoor season will be more successful, and that with the use of private horses next year the players will improve considerably. Back Roii.-: Williams (Coach), Cook, Hunt (Manager). Front Row: Reams, Armour (Captain) Guirey. 305 1943 Freshman Baseball Albert C. Martin Laurence G. Tighe, Jr. The death of Clyde Engle was a great blow to Freshman Baseball at Yale. The team was fortunate, however, in acquiring the coach- ing services of Steve Yerkes, a former teammate of Joe Wood ' s on the Boston Red Sox. The Cubs, largely because of inexperience and unfortunate breaks, compiled a rather unimpres- sive record, winning only four out of twelve en- counters. Captain Bert Martin and first baseman Tom Whelan led the attack with consistent hit- ting all season. In the initial game Milford edged the Elis, mainly on the outstanding pitching of Klimzcak, brother of a former Yale star. The Choate nine fought Yale to a 5-5 tie in the next encounter, which had to be called because of darkness. This game proved unfortunate for Yale, for Hank Urban, Cub outfielder, was hit by a pitched ball and put out of action for the rest of the season. Captain Manager Traveling to Andover the team met a 10—8 defeat. Although Yale outhit the schoolboys, the latter capitalized on the breaks to eke out their win. The first taste of victory came as the team downed Wesleyan 8-4. Washburn displayed fine form on the mound, fanning the last two bat- ters in the ninth inning to smother a Wesleyan rally. After a 6-2 defeat by a smart University School team, the Freshmen trounced Peekskill 14-2 with Martin, Whelan and Jordan hitting hard. It was the first time the team had really come to life at the plate. The Cubs then nosed out the Branford Red Sox in a game featured by Tom Whelan ' s long home run. The remaining four games were all lost, and a 10-5 defeat at the hands of the Harvard Fresh- man ended a rather erratic season.

Evans David B. Ressler The 1943 Freshman Crew, captained by Harry Evans, had a full schedule of races and met some powerful opponents. Kept off the river by bad weather during most of spring vaca- tion, they were deprived of many miles of needed practice. Furthermore, several promising oars- men succumbed to general warning which ren- dered them automatically ineligible. In spite of these set-backs, the crew, under the superb leader- ship of Coach Grant, kept spirit high through- out the season. Competition began on May 5 when the Yale Boat met Pennsylvania and Columbia on the Harlem. A smooth river and a light following wind favored the races. Columbia was in front from the start, and Yale with Howie Litt on the ropes was unable to make up the deficit. The fin- ish found Yale hardly a length behind the Lion shell with Penn trailing in their wake. Captain Manager The following Saturday with hopes high Yale faced Syracuse and M.I.T. in the Derby Day meet on the Housatonic. The race proved to be the best of the year, only four seconds separating the boats, but their hopes were unfounded. M.I.T. was first across the line, Penn second, and Yale third. In the Carnegie Cup Race Cornell offered a smooth working, polished unit which repeated its triumph of 1939. Their far superior aggrega- tion negotiated the two-mile course in the fast time of 9:46 and finished two and a half lengths ahead of Yale with Princeton in third place. At New London in their final and most critical race with Harvard, the Freshmen fared no better than their Varsity teammates. In this the Can- tab outfit proved too strong and pulled steadily ahead to win by fourteen lengths. 307 Back Row: Turne Front Row: Burr. (Captain), Hardy, Dibble, Marshall, Drucklieb, Galpin, Millett, Dubi 1943 Freshman 150-pound Crew Arthur N. Turner Robert J. Whalen Captain Manager THE Freshman 150-pound crew, led by Cap- tain Arthur Turner, although it started off with a flourish, finished a mediocre 1940 season, having one victory on its record to two defeats. In the first race at Derby, on April 27, the Yale lightweights led the Kent crew all the way over the short course, finishing with a length of open water between the two boats. Owing to rough water, the times were comparatively slow, 5:433 5 for the Yale boat and 5:544 5 for Kent. In the second race of the season, on Derby Day, the ' 43 Bantams met their first defeat at the hands of a smooth-rowing Harvard outfit. The Yale boat, however, nosed out Princeton by a deck length to come in second. In the final race of the season, for the Joseph Wright Cup, rowed over the Henley course of a mile and 5 16 on the Charles River, the Yale boat received a setback at the start which left them no chance for victory. Because of the ex- cessively rough water, the racing start was ragged; and Hardy, rowing 5 for the Yale crew, jumped his slide and was forced to row a very difficult race, sitting on the runners. Despite this handicap, which forced them to hold a very low stroke throughout the race, the Yale lightweights almost eiiged out Princeton for third place at the finish. The race was won by Harvard in the time, 7 :02.4, with Cornell, Princeton and Yale finish- ing behind the winner in that order. 308 1943 Freshman Track Kent Ellis William P. Jeffery Captain Manager A bly led by Captain Kent Ellis the 1943 Fresh- l man Track Team had a highly successful season winning four out of five meets and being crowned Big Three Champions. On April 20 the Freshmen suffered their only defeat of the season at the hands of Mercersburg, losing 55 2-43 2. The only bright spots for Yale in this meet were the sweep in the high jump by George Greene and John Reid ' s first place in the shot put. The following week the Cubs took Andover by an 83-43 score. Sargent was responsible for a large share of the Yale victory by winning the 100 yard dash and the javelin. The Nott Ter- race High School was the next to fall before the powerful Cubs — 83 I 3 to 33 2 3. Bud Talbott scoring firsts in both dashes paced the team to this victorv. On May 1 1 Princeton came to New Haven and was handed a 82-53 trimming. Talbott was again a double victor while Kent Ellis ran a 49.7 quarter mile to win his specialty. George Greene also contributed two firsts to the Elis cause by taking both of the hurdles. Traveling to Cambridge the next week the underdog freshman team administered the Har- vard Yearlings a close 70-65 defeat. This vic- tory gave the Elis the Big Three Championship. Yale won this meet largely by counting heavily in second and third places. Whittemore led the Elis consistent 880 trio across the tape with his team- mates Nevins and Coughlan close behind to give Yale nine points in this event. Again Captain Ellis scored a double by capturing the 440-yard run and the broad jump. Bill Bird ended the season undefeated in the two-mile event.

Preston Captain Manager In spite of the inclement weather which de- layed pre-season practicing to a considerable extent, and caused the cancellation of the first two matches with Kent and Cheshire, the Fresh- man Tennis Team completed a most satisfactory season by gaining six victories and losing but twice. Captain Smith was the top performer and his six wins paced the rest of the team. At Lawrenceville the team emerged with a hard fought 5-4 victory. The next week, how- ever, Choate arrived in the rain, and playing in the cage, thrashed the home forces 5-2. The Freshmen rallied their strength and proceeded to drub Taft by an easy 6J 2 to 2J 2 margin. Later they handed Scarborough a pleasing 6-3 defeat, while preparing for the crucial Princeton match. All was in vain, however, as the Tiger Freshmen, on their home courts, outplayed Yale to gain an 8-1 victory, Stuyvie Wainwright being the only one to win his match. Returning to New Haven the yearlings took care of Peddie by a 7-2 mar- gin. Dartmouth came to town, but returned a sad- der and wiser team, being on the short end of a 6-3 score, and finally the match of the season, with Harvard on our home courts, was won by Yale 5-4. Yale ' s superiority in singles proved the Cantabs undoing, only one doubles match being required to give Yale the victory. Consistent winners during the season were Captain Pearce Smith, Wally Embry, Stuyvie Wainwright, Roily Evans, and Bill Pugh ; with Arch Ragan and George Caulkins, who were only available for part of the season, due to sick- ness, turning in occasional victories. Embry and Evans were the most outstanding duet on the yearling roster. Bach Row: Preston (Manager), Welch, Northrup, Acheson, Bland, Wainwright, Skillman (Coach).

Williams George O. Keutgen, Jr. Ei by the consistently brilliant playing of Ace Williams the Freshman Golf Team swept through its Spring schedule with an almost perfect record, suffering their only defeat at the hands of the Princeton Freshmen. Opening their season with a 7 to ij victory over Andover they continued their tempo by defeating the Cor- nell Freshmen 6-0 and Choate lY? to 1J 2. Throughout these three encounters, the latter two being played at the home course, the Fresh- man team showed time and time again their ability to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat by steady playing. Although the resulting scores would seem to indicate a one-sided contest actu- ally every match was hotly contested with the final outcome often being determined on the eighteenth green and some matches even going over to extra holes. Captain Manager In their next encounter which was played with the Princeton Freshmen the yearlings lost their only match of the season by a score of 8—1. Recov- ering from their defeat in short order they came back strong to conquer Exeter 5J 2 to 3j £, fol- lowed in order by Taft which succumbed to a su- perior Yale team, 5-4. Hotchkiss was the next vic- tim by the score of 7—2. Leaving the schoolboy league, the representatives of ' 43 took over the Dartmouth Freshmen by a 6 J 2 to 2 J 2 decision. For the final match of the season the Cubs journeyed to Boston to meet Harvard. The match was held at the Belmot Golf Club where despite the driving rain in which all the matches were played the Cantabs were taken 7-2. This proved to be a fitting climax to the season, especially so as Ace Williams was able to turn in one of his best scores of the season. 311 Back Row: Henry (Coach), Edson, Oscarson, Cassman (Trainer), McKinney, Davis, Wesson (Manager).

Hammerschmidt Morgan Wesson Captain Manager IN his first year as a member of the coaching staff, Don Henry, 1939 Varsity Captain, and a member of the Ail-American lacrosse team, ably drilled on the Payne Whitney basketball court an aggressive but inexperienced Freshman group. The potentially powerful aggregation was by degrees whipped into shape for an early game with the Peekskill Military Academy. The Year- ling eleven looked good and tramped on the visit- ing stickmen to the tune of 6-3 in a rough battle on a hard, half-frozen field. A week later a smooth functioning unit from Deerfield handed the Blue team, lacking reserves, a 6-4 thumping. With a full week of needed practice under their belts the Freshmen traveled to West Point to partake of Cadet hospitality. The Plebes went down to a 6—2 defeat under the Yalemen ' s un- relenting attack. The following Wednesday brought a goal- hungry Princeton team to New Haven, and the Yale Big Three hopes toppled in a 9—2 drubbing. A busy Yale defense and the Tiger-tormented goalie, Ward, played hard and well, preventing the game from being a rout for the Nassaumen. Smarting under this loss, the Freshmen en- trained for Cambridge for their last and most crucial meet with Harvard. The Bulldogs ran roughshod over a weak Cantab defense to ring up an 1 1— 1 victory. Hoagland and Copp led the scoring. Though the season ' s record of three wins and two defeats is hardly impressive, the team showed fine spirit and improved each week to end the year with the decisive win over Harvard. Men- tion must be made of the consistent high scoring of Hoagland and Keefer and the brilliant defense work of Cleaver, Hammerschmidt, and goalie Ward. 312 North Middle Football Undefeated throughout its six-game series, the North Middle football team tallied 1 1 1 points to 13 for its opponents. This unusually heavy scoring, in a league which limits its play- ing quarter to eight minutes, was directly at- tributable to the best passing combination in the intramural circuit; with Captain Larry Proctor passing to Gray and Keller, two excellent re- ceiving ends, North Middle was able to score at will through the air, when its running attack faltered. In two encounters with South Middle, North Middle emerged victorious 27—0 and 19-0. In the first of these games, Fuller crashed through from his position at tackle to block a South Mid- dle punt and pave the way for North Middle ' s opening touchdown of the season. Captain Proc- tor passed to Gray and Keller for two touch- downs, and plunged across himself for another. The second game followed a similar pattern and blanking their opponents once more the Deacons crossed the goal three times with Hopper and Kirkpatrick gaining the credit for North Middle ' s points. North was defeated twice, 19-7 and 26—0, with Hopper and Traphagen clearing the way for the spirited running of Kirkpatrick and Roller. North Middle scored mainly by circling North ' s ends and hitting their line relentlessly. South also succumbed twice to North Middle ' s power, 7-0 and 13-6. In both of these games the strong North Middle line, composed of Neville, Hansen, Fuller, Voight, Fullman, and Brooks, outcharged their South opponents and, with the stonewall defensive play of center Gile, kept the Colonels limited to one touchdown. Thus the team finished the season undefeated and untied, and despite rumors from certain quar- ters, this was accomplished with no subsidization whatever. Back Row: Flaschner (Manager), Keller, Neville, Fields, Hanson, Traphagen, Murchison, Henry (Coach). Second Roiv: Fitt, Gray, Hopper, Proctor, Fuller, Sloane, Sumner. Front Roic: Kirkpatrick, Fullman, Voigt, Gile. 313 North Middle Touch Football IN early fall the four branches of the Fresh- man Campus hove to and organized the various intramural teams, important among which was touch football. Requiring speed both of foot and of mind, this sport attracted many Freshmen who preferred the wide-open touch game to the slow, bone-crushing game known as tackle. In the Intramural League, representatives of each unit met the teams of the other three units in two games apiece, a total of six games. North Middle emerged victorious in the league with a total of five games won and one lost, but a playoff of a tie seemed imminent until the last moment, for South Middle proved a very strong contender. After North Middle had won four out of five games, and South Middle three out of five, the two met in the crucial playoff. A victory here for South Middle would have thrown the Patriots and the Deacons into a tie for the league leader- ship. The game was marked by strong defensive play; Captain Farnsworth Eliot of South Middle used a 2-2-2 lineup on the defense, which effec- tively blocked the famous long pass so strongly advocated by North Middle ' s Gladstone. With the score deadlocked at 6—6 and time drawing to an end, the spirited Deacons produced their strongest offensive lineup and scored on a play calling for a series of lateral passes, which over- whelmed the desperate defenders. This touchdown decided the outcome of the contest ; South Middle tried every means to produce a score, but the setting sun and gathering clouds found the North Middle Deacons successfully de- fending their goal against all threats. Thus, after a close race all season long, North Middle eliminated their nearest rivals and captured the Freshman Intramural Touch Football Cham- pionship.

Although the Vandals took the first five games easily, a hot-shooting South Middle Back Row: Harris, O ' Brien, Ferguson, Masland. Front Roiu: Ivey, Stack, Fay (Captain), Kitchen, Regan (Manager). Quinlan team upset them 25-22. The following week the Vandals decisively beat the conquerors of South Middle, North Middle Williams, to throw the first round into a three-way tie. The second round became a two-team race after Quinlan dropped two games. The Vandals virtually clinched the championship by a second win over the Williams quintet. A win over Quin- lan, 22-20, definitely sewed up the title. After capturing the Freshman title, the Van- dals challenged the champion Timothy Dwight Prexies but were forced to be content with a moral victory, Timothy Dwight winning 17-14. Forwards Ben Kitchen, Hugh O ' Brien and John Ferguson, and Center Steve Stack were all consistent point-makers. In the back court Cap- tain Floyd Fay, Jim Whitmore and Bill Masland ably held up the defense and added a few timely points of their own. And whenever the Vandals needed control of the ball, Ed Harris and Neil Ivey could be found scrapping for its possession. South Swimming The South Swimming Team seemed off to a poor start when it dropped its first dual meet to a strong North aggregation. But the Colonels, led by Captain Gregg King, went on to win every succeeding meet, including the re- turn event with North. King and Ros Bellinger were the stalwarts of the team, neither missing a single practice or contest. But the outstanding swimmer was Bud Wieboldt who finished first in every event he entered — three free-style races in each meet. During the early part of the season the team lacked an accomplished diver, but by the time the crucial return meet with North came around, John Lyons had come to the rescue and contributed decisively to that win. MacGuire, Rushmore, Becker and Atkins were others whose points led to the championship. Sixteen men took part in the six contests and eleven qualified for charms. Brockett, Harris and Averell, as well as Steve Stack, who fitted in wherever needed and regularly finished first or second, were particu- larly deserving of mention. It was a season pref- aced by a loss and hence doubly hard for Captain King and his men to win ; that they did is proof of a spirit which matched their abilities. Back Roiv: Wieboldt, Becker, Atkins, Regan (Man- ager). Front Rote: Lyons, Brockett, King (Captain), Freeman, Rushmore. 315 South Middle Bowling IN the Freshman Bowling League South Middle Biel emerged victorious in a hotly- contested struggle. The tournament was an elim- ination, two losses disqualifying a team. In the first match South Middle downed North Ingraham by twenty-two pins, Biel leading his team with 348. South Margolin, the next victim, O ' Toole, Weitzl, Bienfait, Douglass, Wilson, Biel. was trounced by 120 pins. Then came the slaughter of North Braasch, who was defeated by 213 pins. This easy winning streak ended with the meeting of North Middle Buck. This match was not decided until the last man had bowled his last box, but South Middle finally eked out a one-pin victory. South Middle entered the finals with no de- feats and met once-defeated North Ingraham. North bowled the best score of the tournament to beat South Middle by forty-six pins. Captain Ingraham bowled three consecutive strikes, an unusual occurrence in duckpin bowling, and Eckle bowled 354 for the individual high of the season. The final match was played the next day, since South Middle had to be defeated twice to be eliminated. North, however, could not keep up its winning streak, and South Middle ' s Bien- fait came through to save the match and the tournament. North Squash IN taking the squash championship North rolled up the impressive record of winning thirty individual matches while dropping only three. The season open auspiciously enough with a 5-0 shellacking of South Middle. This impressive victory was followed by similar triumphs over North Middle and South. The second half of the season almost proved an exact repetition of the previous play. The Post- men again won all team matches but barely shaded the much improved South Middle aggre- gation 3-2. North Middle was again safely tucked away 5-0 and in the season ' s wind-up South was defeated 4-1. Throughout the season undefeated Captain Jeff Walker alternated at the number one post with Matt Cleveland. Al Ford, Jack Lawrence and Frank Farwell ably filled the next three positions while George Isham and Page Wodell, acting as reserves, were constantly called upon to donate their talents to assure an undefeated season. Oddly enough all seven of these men lived in the same entry of Wright, six on the same floor as two sets of triple roommates. South took second place, North Middle third, while South Middle ended in the cellar position. Back Ro w: Isham, Walker, Wodell (Captain). Lav rence, Cleveland.

In the opener with North, South Middle came Back Roit:: Scott, Greenbautn, Mahler. Front Roiv: North, Birmingham, Yahn, Coe (Captain), Cummings, Arnold, Redfern. from behind to win 9-8. This game was followed by an encounter with South, who lost 17-5. North Middle fell next in order by the narrow margin of 12— II. In a return engagement with North, South Middle gave the Postmen a 17-0 waxing. Succumbing, however, to a Southern breeze, South Middle suffered a blow to their aspirations for an undefeated season. Getting off to a bad start, the Patriots could not make up the deficit by a late-inning rally, South winning 1 3—9. The last game of the year was a slug-fest for the Patriots, who sent 18 runs in, while North Middle managed to eke out but 6. Outstanding was South Middle ' s stellar in- field, comprising Hugh Cumming, Bob Yahn, Kent Arnold and Morris Greenbaum. Birming- ham was a capable outfielder and clean-up hitter. Bob North ably filled the catcher ' s shoes and Dick Scott proved a valuable utility man as infielder, outfielder and catcher. South Crew Captained by Hank Bradford and stroked by Doug Dodge, the South Crew proved to be the decisive factor in clinching the All Year Championship ; the Colonels splashed trium- phantly through all four encounters. On April 19, the South boatmen set back North Middle by a length. Next North and again North Middle were outstroked, the latter race being rowed in the remarkably fast time of 3 :og. On May 9, South clinched the championship by leav- ing the North crew I l z lengths behind in 3:10 minutes. But the South crewmen could not stop there; it reconstructed itself soon as the Yale Fresh- man Hackers and sent a challenge to the re- doubtable Kent School Boat Club. Kent answered with her top inter-class boat, awaited the arrival of the Hackers, May 17. It was a dismal day; raining, squally, and cold. Undaunted by a crab on the port side and the spirited start of the Kent boat, the Hackers swung into their long slow modified Kent stroke, over the mile course on the Housatonic. So it was by a crew using their own stroke that the Kent oarsmen were beaten, the Hackers winning by a length in 5 :2$ flat to climax the season.

It will often stand, apparently without complaint, more abuse than any other organ — but that does not mean that it is not registering its unhappiness. Any one of a number of ills, hav- ing no apparent connection with the eyes, may result from eye strain. Public educators know that practically one student in every five has defective sight and that the wearing of properly fitted glasses in all such cases tends to eliminate low grades and failures in college work. Any person who is straining his eyes probably needs glasses quite as much as the individual who can not see plainly. The latter needs help to obtain clear vision ; the former needs help to relieve the strain and make seeing easier. Why not find out the exact condition of your eyes at the beginning of each college year? The longer eye strain is neglected, the harder it is to overcome. If our eye examination shows that the need for glasses exists with the student ' s eyes, we will supply the correct lenses in strong, sturdy and modern frames. Remember, every student ' s eyesight should be guarded and corrected now for the work in years ahead — and to you falls this duty. MACY H. BATTALIN Optometrist 865 CHAPEL STREET Cor.

To the inquiry of a curious Ameri- can traveler, the Oriental replied that he was making a needle from the crowbar. This display of patience is scarcely more unnecessary and uneconomical than for a modern attorney to depend upon the primitive methods of making his own search for authorities and deducing and formulating the legal rules for himself, when this is already done for him, by experts using modern and efficient meth- ods, in AMERICAN JURISPRUDENCE. Let us show vou now easily this essential set can be obtained.
