The Academy was incorpo- rated with the St. John ' s Episcopal Church, to which the institution then belonged. Children of the town and county paid forty shillings tuition; others, three pounds per annum. Along with reading, writing, and arithmetic in the curriculum were: Latin, Greek, and French languages, rhetoric, experimental phi- losophy, geography, astronomy, history, moral phi- losophy and divinity. On March 1, 1799, the Academy was tendered as a non-sectarian public school for the young people of York County. Girls were first admitted as pupils around 1800, but in 1870, the female department was discontinued. RULES FOR 1812 SCHOLARS 1. No scholar is allowed to speak to another scholar or to leave his seat with- out special permission. 2. No scholar is allowed to be idle in school a nd must attend to his studies with diligent application. 3. No scholar is permitted, at any time, to tell a falsehood, or to use indecent, vulgar, or profane language. 4. No scholar shall go to any person ' s lot for fruit without permission from the owner. 5. Scholars who are boarding in York (not being constant residents here) are not allowed to be absent without permission from teachers. Note: To parents and guradians: You are respectfully desired not to suffer those youth, who attend York Academy, to be out in the evening, in the street, as they DO learn many BAD things, and can learn NOTHING GOOD by it. Y. C. I. Before 1870, Samuel Small, Sr., conceived the idea of providing means for the liberal education of York youth. He selected a quarter square on the northeast corner of Duke Street and College Avenue. In 1871, the corner-stone of the first endowed building was laid. A charter was obtained August 27, 1873, and on September 1 5th the institution was opened for students. The faculty consisted of five members. Fifty students were ready to be enrolled. On December 7, 1885, the building was entirely destroyed by fire. The new building was dedicated March 15, 1887. The plan of the school was two-fold: to give the young people of York and vicinity a well-rounded literary and scientific education, and also to fit for college any boys who were preparing for a higher education. The closing words of the founder on the day of dedication express his hope for the Institute: And may God ' s blessing ever rest on this Institute and make it a means of promoting sound Christian education.

University of Pittsburgh M.A. Harvard University Ed.M. Boston University Ph.D. THE DEAN is the most important link between the home environment and the new college life. He usually is the first member of the faculty with whom the students come into contact. It is through him that their first impression is formed. No one knows better than the Dean, that for students to make a suc- cess in college work, they must like college; he helps them to formulate this like. He is honest and sincere in his attempt to do so, and they appreciate these efforts, since he has their confidence. He is able to determine their atti- tudes and desires with respect to the outcome of college training. In plan- ning their schedules, he must take into account their abilities as well as their wishes and give each its appropriate evaluation in order to decide upon an attainable goal. The kind and understanding nature of Dean Rummel , im- pressed upon all students from their first meeting, makes it possible for them to come to him whenever they have difficulties, either scholastic or personal. They always find him willing to give his time in an effort to solve their prob- lems. His knowledge of human nature, influenced undoubtedly by the fact that he is a psychology professor, makes him more capable of giving advice to them, his student friends. Page 14 . . . BUSINESS MANAGER GLENN M. ABEL MiLLERSVILLE StATE Teachers ' College AS BUSINESS MANAGER of the York Junior College, Glenn M. Abel has estab- lished a competent and workable organization. Mr. Abel is constantly trying to simplify the student problems of supply and finance. As regards veterans, he has reduced the red tape until it is practically non-existent. Through his interest in the numerous and varied college activities he has slipped from the ranks of the cold businessmen. To mention all activities would be an impossibility, but we should like to cite an example: He travels with the basketball team as official scorekeeper. Further, his interest in athletics extends to any sport appearing in the school. His time is our time. We pause here to make special mention of the fact that he spent several hours checking with, and aiding the financial staff of this publication. As we survey our experiences of the last two years at York Junior College, we find that there are many people who have made it infinitely easier for us who are students. Mr. Abel is outstanding among these people. Page 15 SECRETARIAL STAFF . . . How soon will the new literature books be in? When may I speak to the dean? Is Mr. Johnson in? These and numerous other questions are an- swered every day by our efficient secretaries. Miss Sprenkle is very patient with the many college students who are for- ever strolling in and out of Mr. Abel ' s office for books, pencils and informa- tion relative and not relative to a business office. Within the administrative hub, Mrs. Lookingbill greets all callers with a smile and lends assistance to many students. As secretary to the president, she quietly but convincingly attends to office routine and to the switchboard. Adding a dash of wit and glamour. Miss Wherley, secretary to the dean, answers all student academic requests in a business-like manner. After two fleeting years of amicable relationship, we sophomores appre- ciate your personal favors. Page 16 LIBRARY: community Nerve Center The Library, which is the hub of student activity within college, is kept in smooth-running order by Mrs. Elizabeth Walz, the librarian. With the aid of eight assistants, books are checked in and out, mag- azines are placed on file, and research material is found for busy students. At the beginning of the school year, there were approximately 4,600 vol- umes on the stacks. This number has been increased to 5,500. This year a memorial corner was dedicated to the memory of former servicemen from York who died in World War II. The student librarians are: Robert Boyce, Alice Cocklin, Beverly Coval, James Davis, Carolyn Mor- ton, Norma Schmuck, Robert Sterner and Marguerite Zarfoss. ELIZABETH G.

This curriculum is established to meet the requirements for transfer to leading engi- neering schools, as well as to give the best possible foundation for an engineering career. Since the first-year fundamentals required in nearly all branches of engineering are iden- tical, a common curriculum has been estab- lished for all engineering students. Therefore, a student need not select a specific field of en- gineering, prior to first-year matriculation, but may utilize his freshman year to analyze all fields before making this important decision. The courses comprising the engineering cur- riculum may be divided into three groups : (1 ) science, including mathematics, physics, and chemistry; (2) humanistic, which consists of English composition; and (3) applied science or engineering courses made up of engineer- ing drawing, descriptive geometry, and engi- neering orientation. The first-year mathematics ' course is divided into four parts: the study of algebra, trigonom- etry, analytic geometry and calculus. The study of the principles of mechanics, heat and sound are included in physics. Chemistry, presented by lecture-demonstration, is a study of the fundamentals of chemistry with emphasis on their application to every-day life. The phys- ics and chemistry courses are supplemented by laboratory experimentation conducted with complete, up-to-date laboratory equipment. Ob- Man and machine. Page 22 FIRST YEAR ENGINEERING . . viously, these science courses constitute the technical foundation for engineering work. English composition is being stressed to fa- cilitate written communication. The engineer has great need for the ability to express him- self effectively in written reports and corre- spondence. Engineering drawing is given the first se- mester to develop the students ' skill in mechan- ical drawing and the reading of blueprints, which are so vitally a part of engineering. In addition, the student develops a skill in letter- ing and a habit of neatness in his work. De- scriptive geometry which follows in the second semester is also primarily a drawing course. Its purpose is to stimulate the students ' judg- ment and ability to visualize. The course in orientation familiarizes the student with the scope of each of the several main fields of en- gineering, the nature of the education required, the responsibilities of engineers, the activities of their professional societies, the social re- sponsibilities of engineers, and related topics. CURRICULUM Physics Chemistry Engineering Drawing I Engineering Drawing II Engineering Orientation Physical Education The course also provides classroom training in the use of the slide rule, methods of analyzing and solving problems, forms with which to pre- pare engineering reports, and basic engineer- ing principles. Although this curriculum is specifically de- signed to meet the requirements for sophomore entrance to Pennsylvania State College, it also coincides with the requirements of most other engineering schools. Beneath cold ratios, engineers sweat. Page 23 LIBERAL ARTS . . . Local atmosphere. FRESHMAN YEAR English Composition and Speech Modern Foreign Language History Mathematics Science Orientation Physical Education Bible Speech Art Music The Liberal Arts curriculum is offered by York Junior College for those students who de- sire to continue their studies to obtain a Bach- elor of Arts or a Bachelor of Science degree from a four-year institution. Through this course, the student becomes familiar with the cultural, social and intellec- tual aspects of life. He learns to express him- self in a dynamic and projective fashion through the development of his ability to use the English language, as well as foreign languages, in both oral and written expression. His increased knowledge of mathematics and natural sci- ences promotes a better comprehension of the physical aspects of the world in which he lives. Studies such as history, sociology, politics, eco- nomics and psychology compel the student to seriously consider and examine man ' s social environment. Page 24 Culture recorded. Above all, the conscientious Liberal Arts stu- dent will develop the ability to compare and evaluate the ideas of others; to engage in creative thinking; and to decide and act as a responsible moral being. That these charac- teristics are essential to the modern world is obvious. Tomorrow ' s men and women will be faced wth some of the most difficult economic and emotional problems in the nation ' s history. Their ability to eliminate the irrelevant issues and to get to the basic fundamentals of a prob- lem is being determined now. It is for this pur- pose that York Junior College provides, under the heading of Liberal Arts, a course that will bring out the qualities of straight thinking, character, and ambition in the future citizens of the world.

For Who Knows What Is Possible. When these words were engraved into durable gran- ite and placed over the portal of a famous science building, the individual responsible for them realized that they constituted the basic concept upon which all scientists live and labor. Doctors and dentists in general find ample opportunity to delve into those inner secrets of man and utilize their findings to know what is possible for a better and happier living. Where once was wonder and amazement there can now be understanding and intelligent interpretation. In keeping with this high purpose, the York Junior College provides the first two years of the required four-year pre-medical and two or four-year pre-dental course, according to the student ' s choice. While at York Junior College, the future doctors and dentists may master the required, as well as some elective courses in biology, chemistry, history, languages, mathe- matics, physics, and social sciences. Since the requirements of various medical and dental schools differ widely, one is able to choose electives which will provide a temporary out- let from the many basic scientific requirements. Thus, it is quite possible to obtain a cultural background as v ell as a scientific background in preparation for advanced study in the med- ical and dental professions. BASIC IDEAS . W. Martin A. Cocklin Page 26 TERMINAL COURSES Things to Come As one field of development in the current expansion of American higher education, the community college with its terminal courses is increasing in importance on a sound economic, technical and intellectual base. The theory- is not entirely new but has been projected by educators for the past several years, often included in proposals for enlargement of the general free educa- tion system to provide some college training for all high school students. Functional in theory, the terminal course program is planned to operate on the community level and to serve a distinct educational purpose in com- munities the size of York, having been presente d as a means of meeting the total post-high-school needs of the community. In addition to removing geo- graphical and educational barriers to educational opportunities, which exist under the present system of four-year colleges, the plan also envisions the community college as an active center of adult education. Such a program, now under consideration in York Junior College, would be closely integrated with local high school education and would be slanted toward the students who must terminate their higher education after the four- teenth year. Studies have shown that one-half of the college students are unable to complete the conventional four-year course and that they would profit more by special studies planned to meet their needs over a two-year period than they would from the first two years in established institutions. Both general and vocational training would be given. One principal area of education would be in the semi-professional line, where often two years of training would be sufficient for technicians needed to meet society ' s occupational requirements. It has been shown, in fact, that in some fields more technicians with two years ' training are needed than professionals with four years ' work. However, in addition to vocational train- ing, such students also would receive general education for better social understanding and personal development. The community college also would serve as the center of learning for an entire community, gearing its program to the needs of the locality and keep- ing alive intellectual curiosity among the out-of-school adults, thus improv- ing the quality of their lives and at the same time providing supplemental studies helpful in their various vocations. The principle of the terminal course thus is to serve a definite intellectual, economic and technical function, not only by providing a well-rounded and complete education for young people unable to complete four-year courses, but also by training much-needed technicians such as medical secretaries, recreational leaders, salesmen in special fields, dental hygienists and nurses ' aides. Such colleges would be sponsored largely through public auspices, re- ceiving funds from the community as well as the state. A sound financial es- tablishment, as well as a coordinated state-wide program to locate colleges properly and plan curricula, is advocated by educators. Thus, within the next few years we hope to see fully integrated terminal courses established in York Junior College. Page 27 PRE-CLINIC NURSING . . . I Miss McGary, Y. J. C, Coordinator A. Myers, Student Nurse COURSE OF STUDY Anatomy Chemistry Microbiology Psychology Sociology English College life is a gay life, despite the count- less studies involved. That is the conclusion we, the pre-clinicals of the York Hospital School of Nursing, reached as we left the college cam- pus first semester. It was really the social affairs which ce- mented the friendly relationship existing be- tween Y. J. C. and Y. H. S. N. We appreciated the privilege of being invited to the outstand- ing social events of the year. Little did we know the good time we would have as we, dressed in jeans and shirts, climbed into the bus which took us to the scene of the all-day college picnic. Our courses at Y. J. C. contributed a great amount of the fundamental knowledge required of girls aspiring to a nursing career. Biological sciences: anatomy, microbiology, and chem- istry proved to be interesting but difficult at times. Psycholoy, sociology, and English pro- vided many new trends of thought. Page 28 Now, as we regretfully depart from our col- lege classrooms, laboratories, social events and many friends, we turn to our duties at the hos- pital, the second semester. Besides our practical work on the floors, of checking charts, alleviating pain, making pa- tients comfortable, we have classes in Nursing Arts, Pharmacology, Drugs and Solutions, Med- ical Nursing and Nutrition. As we become more advanced students, other subjects will be added to our curriculum as: Allergy, Pediat- rics, Obstetrics, Surgical Nursing and Commu- nicable Diseases. We wish to extend our gratitude to our pa- tient and understanding Y. J. C. teachers, who spent much time and effort in our behalf, also to those responsible for thoughtfully including us in the yearbook of ' 48. It makes us feel a part of Y. J. C.

Bowman — Vice-President W. Cady — Secretary R. Myers — Treasurer The Class of 1949 entered York Junior Col- lege, September 22, 1947, and October 10th following, we, as a unit, assembled in our first class meeting for the purpose of electing class officers and appointing appropriate committees. As a means of making us feel a part of the college, October 21st the sophomores spon- sored an all-college picnic to acquaint us, the greeners, with our fellow students. Midst sand- wiches, catching footballs and hikes with Mr. Dunlap, the purpose was accomplished. Many members of our class attended the college Christmas dance, December 19th, at the Country Club of York. After the Christmas holi- days, our thoughts turned to semester exami- nations and transferable grades. Although we are young as a class, many of our members have distinguished themselves in athletics, dramatics, school newspaper work and student government. Our class supplied the captain of the basketball varsity, the hero of the Foothghters ' play, the editor of the Yorker, and capable representatives on col- lege committees. For all freshmen, this year laid the scholastic, social and basic foundation for our future ca- reers, not only at York Junior College, but also for many other institutions to which many of our class members will be admitted next year.

Sheffer — Treasurer So Be It— A Constitution The purpose of the Student Council is to di- rect and promote student activities, and to stimulate in the school a spirit of good fellow- ship. The Student Council endeavors to pro- mote better understanding between the faculty and the student body. Meeting bi-monthly, the council discusses ways in which the student body might be aided to obtain the fullest degree of satisfaction from their sojourn at York Junior College. The council is composed of the officers of both the freshman and sophomore classes, plus one boy and one girl representative from each class. The officers of the sophomore class act as the officers of the council. Meeting around the table of democracy, the student representatives, guided and advised by a capable faculty member, endeavor to legislate activities and regulations to better fa- cilitate the smooth running organization of the college. The most important item this year was the forming of a new constitution. Among the student activities was the inau- guration of dancing after the basketball games. Delegates from the council attended the Pennsylvania State College Student Govern- ment Clinic — The National Student Assembly, held at Penn State, December 19 and 20, 1947. The delegates reported their observations to the Student Council and it was decided that delegates, elected from the council, should at- tend such meetings in order to gain a better understanding of the problems faced by other colleges in the development and activities of student councils.

Morton, J. Walheim. Yes, It Pays to Advertise The Footlighters was organized by the Class of 1944 to further student interest in drama and to support dramatic activities in the college. Any student in the York Junior College with an interest in any phase of play production is eligible to join the organization. On the nights of March 18 and 19, 1947, the curtain went up on Three-Cornered Moon, a hilarious three-act comedy. The play told of the trials and tribulations (mostly monetary) of the Rimplegar family. The cast of this production was: Robert Boyer, Stephen Swartzbaugh, Jean Host, Madge Thomas, Glenn Sheffer, Anne Zeigler, Thomas Miller, Carl Rasmussen and Norma Schmuck. The play was directed by Mrs. Lora Meisenhelder. This year, the Footlighters staged It Pays to Advertise, a revision of a farcical comedy. The business conflict of a man and his son forms the main plot of this play produced in the Y. M. C. A. Auditorium, April 30th and May 1st. Thespians in this production were: Mary, Eleanor Kaley; Johnson, Jackson Shelley; Comtesse De Beauhen, Wanda Cady; Rodney Martin, Jack Boddington; Ambrose Peale, Glenn OFFICERS G.

Thomas Sophomore Co-ChaiTmen D. Getz Freshmen Chairman Let ' s Get Acquainted Students appointed by the presidents of the respective classes, combined with faculty mem- bers named by the college president, formed an active social committee to plan all the col- lege social activities of the 1947-48 season. The funds for these projects were obtained by means of the student activity fund. This year, under the planning of this com- mittee, a very successful college picnic was held at Camp Cann-edi-on in September. The college students, including the student nurses, who got a day ' s reprieve from the York Hospi- tal, and the faculty members, enjoyed the va- rious forms of entertainment, such as baseball, football, volleyball, dancing, and not to be for- gotten quantities of sandwiches. This event was truly a get-acquainted event. The night before the beginning of Christmas vacation, approximately four hundred students, guests, alumni, and faculty members attended a dance at the Country Club of York. The music was supplied by Clint Lincoln ' s Orchestra. The Spring formal was held preceding the spring vacation. For this event, the freshmen social committee did the planning with the sophomore committee helping them whenever they could be of service. The final event of the season, another col- lege picnic, marked the farewell of the gradu- ating sophomores and the student nurses, as well as the Penn State freshmen and class- mates who will be entering other schools next fall.

THE YEARBOOK-A SANCTUARY OF MEMORIES Early in October, 1947, the Tower staff was selected from among the members of the sophomore class. The plan to produce the book by graduation time necessitated this early beginning. We, the members of this staff, are indebted to the student body, the facuhy, and the va- rious individuals and organizations within the community. Without the cooperation afforded by these groups the publication of this book would have been rendered impossible. It is our purpose in the 1948 Tower to create a simple history of our two years spent at York Junior College. The theme of our book is self-explanatory. We have made a concerted effort to attract the interest of the community to our school and its promising future. Mixing midnight oil with mounting prices, and the usual trials of a student publication, we devised and constructed this sixth edition of the York Junior College Tower. STAFF R. H. Boyer— Edi(or M.

Russell Dunlap — Advisor September of 1947 marked the inauguration of a new publication into Y. J. C, the Yorker, organized to replace last year ' s Junior. Newly staffed and with a completely revised format, the Yorker, in its first issue, carried in its edi- torial column a statement of policy to be fol- lowed throughout the year, promising to bring to the students accurate and unbiased cover- age of the news. Faced with a shortage of help and rocketing printing costs. Jack Boddington, editor; Dean Gladfelter, news editor; Bob Myers, sports editor; and J. Russell Dunlap, fac- ulty advisor, embarked upon a schedule of fif- teen issues for the year. A special edition at Christmas provided sufficient extra funds for the purchase of a typewriter which will remain as permanent Yorker equipment. Another high- light was the unexpected issue distributed dur- ing the week of semester examination. A member of the Columbia Scholastic Press Association, the paper sent the editor and news editor as delegates to that organization ' s March convention where it was learned that the new publication ranked favorably in the judging. Page 53 LINGUISTIANS REASON: Inter-culturally Minded The Linguistian Society is composed of those students studying languages, and those inter- ested in furthering their linguistic backgrounds. The aim of this student group is both cultural and social. Linguistians divide their activities into these two units. On the social calendar one finds such events as parties and the Mardi Gras. The group devotes half of each meeting to lectures, music and educational or travel films in both English and foreign languages. Organization usually begins each year in the month of October, with monthly meetings until the following May. November is the month of initiations and a party for the new nembers. December is given over to the celebration of the Christmas season. January is devoted to music. As an introduction to the new semester, the Linguistians sponsor their annual Mardi Gras. The Mardi Gras is an evening of dancing, en- tertainment and fun for all. This year the Mardi Gras was held Friday, February 13th. The pro- ceeds were donated to the Memorial Corner of the Junior College Library. OFFICERS S. WoRLEY — President R. Williams — Vice-President N. ScHMUCK — Secretary J.

' , were some of the words heard from the York Junior College chorus during the past school year. Every Thursday evening they could be found in one of the rooms of the Y. M. C. A. diligently rehearsing for their initial performance under the direction of E. Schroeder. This occasion came on April 23rd, when the chorus presented a musical program in a spe- cial chapel presentation. Included in the pro- gram were the following selections: The WH- fenpoot Song — Minnigerode, Pomeroy, Gallo- way; Can ' t Yo ' Heah Me Callin ' Caroline — Cara Roma; Drink To Me Only With Thine Eyes — Old English Folk Song; Mosquitoes — Bliss; Stouthearted Men — Romberg; and two Fred Waring arrangements, Comin ' Thru the Rye and Dry Bones. Also featured on the pro- gram were several individual numbers by members of the chorus. The organization had a few other engage- ments during the year and completed its ac- tivities by singing for the commencement exer- cises in June. Row One: R. Byington, J. Shelley, H. Hildebrand, P.

Page 55 ETA KAPPA . . . The social fraternity of Mu Eta Kappa was founded at York Junior College in the fall of 1947. The Greek letters, signifying forty outstanding representatives, give an indication of the aspiration of this organ ization. Mu Eta Kappa endeavors to advance its members, both socially and intellectually, and through them and their associates, to promote the general wel- fare of the York Junior College, and the community. Any male member of the sophomore or freshman class of the York Junior College may, through a unanimous affirmative vote of the fraternity members, achieve membership in Mu Eta Kappa. This year the semi-monthly business meetings have been held in the homes of the members. It is the hope of the organization to secure a permanent meeting-place within a few years. One of the outstanding projects of the fraternity was a Sports Night, held December 2nd, in the college gymnasium. This event featured basketball games between the sophomore and freshman class teams, the fraternity and the faculty, and a weightlifting demonstration by the York Bar Bell Club. A dance was enjoyed after the sports events. With the proceeds from this event, Mu Eta Kappa, in cooperation with the Family Service Bureau, distributed baskets of Christmas food to needy York families. The success of the Sports Night moved the fraternity to incorporate it as an annual affair. It is the aim of this young organization to grow in stature, to expand with the college, and to prove a credit to itself, to the college, and to the community. OFFICERS First Semester T.

Ahrens — Secretary WoRLEY — Corresponding Secretary G. ScHLALiNE — Treasurer Lambda Sigma Chi, Y. J. C. ' s sorority, was established in 1942. In its seven years of existence, the sorority has increased in size and has entered into the various activities sponsored by the college and the sorority. The sorority, which is both social and literary, holds meetings at a scheduled time every month, for a business session and a social hour. The Lambda Sigs started their 1947-48 year with a meeting held at the home of a member, at which time the annual elec- tion of officers was held. At the following meeting, new mem- bers received their initiations and soon entered into the social circle. Among the Christmas activities of the sorority were the donation of supplies to needy people and the assistance by several members of the group in decorating windows in the children ' s ward of the York Hospital. In February, Miss Betty Peckham, a prominent authoress, presented an interesting talk to the sorority in which she included brief reviews of sev- eral of her recent books. The sorority ' s major service function this year was the spon- sorship of a rummage sale in conjunction with Linguistians. Proceeds of this sale, for which donations and money were gathered from both students and outside sources, went to the Library Memorial Fund. M. Warner, N. Schmuck, R. Kane, S. Worley, M. Knerr, P.

PURPOSE— To promote The Community College in York County Public Relations Department, a 1947-48 in- novation, is in its first year of operation for the college. Headed by Bob Reichley, this staff is in charge of publicizing the notable events of Y. J. C. and is charged with s preading her fame far and wide. In addition to the use of the reg- ular publicity channels of newspapers, the boys have bombarded local radio audiences with information concerning social and athletic happenings in our college. Several radio ap- pearances have been made by members of the student body and faculty in interviews and quiz shows over local stations. Arrangements for these appearances are completed by the Public Relations office in cooperation with the station managers. Bob laid the ground work for this organiza- tion, when, last year as a freshman, he took the initiative in relaying news events of the school to the local press. The Powers-that-be in Y. J. C. were pleased with his efforts and granted him a scholarship for his sophomore year. Joe Morgan joined Bob this year as his assis- tant in helping to spread the good word around and has been chiefly concerned with sports events. His greatest triumph was the broadcast of the final basketball play-off games at Hazleton. This department is just a nucleus from which better organized and a more informative de- partment can be developed, whose purpose will be to promote York Junior College, The Community College of York County.

Despite the fact that the Charles F. Polack trophy was lost in the last minutes of the P. J. C. A. A. Tournament, Coach Bob Hulton and his lads finished the season in commend- able style by defeating the New Jersey State Champions, 58-51. In the statistics column, the Big Green racked up a total of 1,298 points during the entire sea- son, while their opponents dropped a total of 1,083. A 59 point per game average was held by the Junior College team while their oppo- nents hit a 49.5 average. A new team scoring record for the Junior College was set when Coach Hulton and his boys traveled south to beat Baltimore Junior College, 83-43; and nearer the end of the season, could have broken this record when they rolled over Du- bois Undergraduate Center, 80-54. Hazleton Undergraduate Center holds the league record by virtue of an 112-69 victory over Keystone. Page 63 THE BIG GREEN . . . First Row (left to right): B. Bishop, L. Sterner, W. Helfrich, T.

PENNSYLVANIA JUNIOR COLLEGE TOURNAMENT York 44— Altoona 35 Headed by Snyder and Fitzgerald with 14 and 10 markers, York proved that it meant business by dropping a scrappy and much improved Altoona team in the semi-finals of the championship tourney. Hazleton staged a first period rally to drop Johnstown 58-42. Much credit went to reserve Bill Barber whose determination kept his four teammates on their toes in the last chap- ter of the game. York 53 — Hazleton 55 (Overtime) In a contest in which Fate ran the scoreboard, a large group of York fans saw their team lose the Charles F. Polack State Trophy in the final seconds of an overtime game at Hazleton. The regulation contest ended as Munroe scored a foul shot to deadlock the score 45-45. The defending champions rushed ahead with two quick goals only to have the score tied again by the confident Nittany Lions. With a little less than 50 seconds to go, and York leading 53-51, Pete Garber tossed a one-handed shot from the center of the floor to tie the score for the final time. With only eight seconds remaining, and every fan and player on edge, Statz Lagonosky dribbled down the side of the court, and despite the efforts of Russ Snyder, threw the ball at the basket underhanded; the rest is history. York 58— College of South Jersey 51 The Yorkers gained some consolation when they defeated the New Jersey State champions in a post-season exhibition battle 58-51. The Camden team represented District Eight, which includes Pennsylvania in the National Junior College Tournament. Page 64 . . .

York 53— Hazleton 45 In what later proved to be one of the sea- son ' s most important games, the Big Green, under Coach Bob Hulton, opened its season with a 53-45 victory over a talented Hazleton team. Captain Red Bock led the scoring with 16 points as his teammates stopped a last half Hazleton rally. York 83— Baltimore 43 A college scoring record was set when the Hultonmen met Baltimore Junior College for the first time and completely outclassed them, 83-43. loe Biros and Russ Snyder tallied 18 and 14 points, respectively. York 60— Schuylkill 45 Although behind at the end of the first half 25-23, the Green and White team pulled a comeback in the final stanza to defeat an old and aggressive rival. Scoring was led by Big Russ Snyder with 23 points. The York reserves also won 45-31. York 56— Hershey 48 A 27-point barrage during the third period crushed Hershey Junior College ' s hopes of opening its season with a victory over the high- flying York team. Big Russ again led the scor- ing with 17 markers. York 61— Dubois 49 Dubois got the chance they wanted at the 1947 state champions but couldn ' t hold the spirited York team, headed again by Biros and Snyder. Between games, a plaque in mem- ory of Charles F. Polack was dedicated by members of the 1947 team with appropriate ceremony. York 53— Johnstown 40 Meeting one of the more polished teams in the league, the Yorkers won a slow and un- impressive victory over Johnstown ' s University of Pittsburgh Center. Snyder dropped 6 field goals and 3 fouls to top the scoring for the game. York 63 — Dickinson 51 In an exhibition game against a versatile rival, the Green and White came through with a 63-51 verdict. York-born Paul Miller scored 19 for the visitors. A reserve center, Don Zeig- ler, tallied 6 points in the final minute. Page 66 York 43— Hazleton 6G York 66— Hershey 38 Scoring only 16 field goals in 110 attempts, the Junior College gave its most miserable court appearance in losing its only league con- test of the season. Biros dropped 13 for York as Garver tallied 12 for the Lions. York 59— Altoona 48 Just before final examinations, Co ach Hul- ton ' s quintet warded off another final period rally to drop Altoona in a league engagement, 59-49. Biros, Snyder and scrappy Bill Barber spearheaded the team ' s attack. York 69— Baltimore 26 Returning from final examinations with the squad intact, the Dutchmen hit a new defen- sive record in defeating their Southern rivals, 69-26. The reserves played most of the con- test as the Marylanders were completely outclassed. York 42— Navy Plebes 63 Against what was the finest team on this year ' s schedule, the Yorkers lost the benefit of a first quarter lead to the country ' s future mid- shipmen in a game played at Annapolis. The visitors were handicapped by the illness of Russ Snyder. Led by Snyder and Bock with 18 and 17 points, respectively, the Big Green and White crushed Hershey ' s hopes of a repeat perform- ance in a league game. The York reserves topped Manchester A. A. 65-20 in the prelimi- nary game. York 53— Johnstown 49 York momentarily overtook Hazleton in the league standings in an impressive victory over an improved Johnstown team, 53-49. Talented Don Davis ran through the York defense, but his efforts were not enough to put his team on top. York 53— Gettysburg 52 A home floor winning streak of 14 games was maintained as York went through its most try- ing contest to date, finally allowing the game time to elapse as Bill Barber dropped the win- ning goal in the last 20 seconds of the battle to win, 53-52. York 62— Altoona 58 Leaving the floor during the first seconds of the third period with a 20-point lead. Coach Hulton ' s starting quintet had to be rushed back into the game when the second team could not stop an Altoona rally which ended at 58 points. York 60— Gettysburg 72 York found itself at its lowest ebb when a powerful freshmen team dropped 14 consecu- tive points in the final period to upset its vis- itors, 72-60. All defensive measures were to no avail as Walt Plechner hit the cords for 28 points. York 75— Schuylkill 34 Finally returning to the winning ways, the Collegians gave their best performance of the season in romping over Schuylkill, 75-34. The play of the local team was finally produced to perfection as Pottsville never threatened. York 80— Dubois 54 The visiting York quintet never gave the rangy Dubois squad a chance to get into the game as they scored one of the highest offen- sive records of the season. Again the second team played most of the contest. York 52— Dickinson 72 Playing against a strong junior varsity team, down to the sixth man on the varsity, the Hul- tonmen again lost a first quarter lead as the Carlisle team gained sweet revenge for the earlier defeat. Miller led the visitors with 22 points. Page 67 MAYHEM ON THE BOARDS . . Page . . . SPORTS NIGHT The newly-organized social fraternity of Mu Eta Kappa gave its first service to the college when it sponsored the first annual Sports Night for the benefit of the Fraternity Christ- mas Charity Fund. Heading the program for the evening was the basketball contest between the Fraternity team and members of the college faculty. Coach Bob Hulton scored 15 points to lead the professors to a 26-18 victory over the Mu Eta Kappa team. During the intermission between games, the large group of students and guests were entertained by the powerful antics of three mem bers of Bob Hoffman ' s World Champion- ship Bar Bell Team, who donated their services. In the feature attraction, the sophomore team, coached by Don Cockley, of York High, de- feated the freshmen team directed by Johnny Clark, coach of York Catholic High, 43-40. A dance followed the game. With funds from this event, more than $200 worth of food was deliv- ered by fraternity members to needy families the day before Christmas. Several weeks later at a regular meeting, Mu Eta Kappa voted unanimously to make Sports Night an annual affair with all of the proceeds being donated to a group of needy York families at Christmas time.

Strickler, N. Seifried (coach), E. Kaley. Despite the difficulties in getting enough girls for participation, the York Junior College girls ' basketball team, under the direction of Coach Norma Seifried, completed the 1947-48 season with a nine-game schedule. This small team, comprised of only eight girls, finished with two wins and seven losses. High scorer for the Dutcherettes was petite Hap Warner with 72 points for the season. Next in line for glory was Phyl Ahrens with 59 points. The other two forwards. Rose Kane and Bebe Strickler, finished with 19 points and 2 points, respec- tively. The non-glory girls, or guards, as they are more commonly called, ran into tough com- petition throughout the whole season. Sparked by Gloria Scrapper Schlaline, they did their best to offset the opponent. Completing the guards and the team were Norma Schmuck, Eleanor Kaley and Sally Worley. The York Junior College Co-eds dropped their opener, 42-14, to a more experienced 4-Year college team from E-town. Ahrens and Warner each had 7 points to tally the only York scores. by a score of 25-24. Ahrens sparked the attack with 11 points. Playing on a small court, and with a mythical cover over the basket, helped to hamper York ' s hopes of de- feating their rival, Penn Hall, and dropped the contest, 30-14. A combined YJC-YCI team failed to stop a powerful Crispus Attucks team and lost to the song of 47-18. York squeezed out a 23-22 victory over Linden Hall on the home floor. Phyl Ahrens was high scorer with 13 points and Hap Warner a close second with 9 points. Failing to stop a second period spurt by the Gettys- burg College Co-eds, the York team went down in de- feat, 31-20. Hap Warner tallied 15 points out of York ' s Hopes for a third victory at the hands of the lassies from Linden Hall were shattered when York failed to produce the goods and lost the contest, 36-17. A return bout with E-town proved more costly than the first game with the Blue and Gray, with the invaders running up a decisive score of 38-8 against our lassies. A last minute rally failed to bring the desired results, and the Red Lion Auxiliary lost to the Dutcherettes In the last game of the season, Crispus Attucks pulled through to defeat a threatening YJC-YCI team, 39-29.
