1949 IVY PUBLISHED BY THE STUDENTS OF

hav~ att~mpt~d I I I

in the IVY 1949 to capture the spirit of Trinity College, a distilled essence embodied in the nine hundred students who prepare for their various careers, and who leave behind them fine traditions for others to follow. It is a spirit fostered by a loyal faculty and alumni. It is something measured by the fight­ing in a football game, in the cramming before an exam, in the laughing on campus. It is an air of purpose, a positive effort put forth toward a worth­while goal. It is a spirit which is manifest in these buildings high on a bluff above a busy city, where only seventy-one years ae;o there was nothing but barren land.

This college has produced men who were, and still are, concerned with the general welfare of mankind, being absorbed at the same time in re­sponsible living. It is only through the equal weight of each individual­whether of the faculty, student body, or alumni-that such a tradition has been maintained and by which the paths of progress will be blazed.

to HAROUTUNE MUGURDICH DADOURIAN Dr. Dadourian came to Trinity in 1919 as Associ­

ate Professor of Physics. Since 1923, he has served as Professor of Mathematics and Natural Philos­ophy. At the close of the present term, Dr. Dadourian will retire from his active professorship.

After receiving his bachelor's, master's, and doc­torate from Yale, Dr. Dadourian 'Qecame an in­structor in the Sheffield Scientific Institute, and lecturer in the Yale Graduate School.

In addition to being author of Analytical Mechanics, Graphic Statics, a contributor of many papers on principles of dynamics and radioactivity, Dr. Dadourian is recognized in American Men of Science as one of America's physicists whose work is held most important. To you, sir, we humbly dedicate this book.

In Memoriam Herman R. Holljes, known to all as "Boots", originally attended

the University of Maryland, where he belonged to Theta Chi Frater­nity; in September 1945, he transferred to Trinity College. He showed his characteristic enthusiasm for college activities by playing varsity baseball, and writing for the Tripod. Because of poor health, Boots was forced to leave school at the end of that year. Upon his return in September 1947, Boots continued to be active on campus, and found time, in addition to being a pretheological scholarship student, to operate the campus laundry, work in the dining hall, to serve on the staff of Radio Trinity, and to participate in the Canterbury and Boosters Clubs. Herman R. Holljes died quietly November 14, 1948, from a heart attack. He will long be remembered at Trinity as the first neutral President of the Student Body and Senate. His inex­haustible efforts in promoting school spirit, and in restoring Trinity traditions will serve as a criterion for undergraduates in the years ahead.

,.

w~ an in th~ midst It was late in 1946 when the Trustees

asked alumni and friends of the College to raise a million and a half dollars for a field house, a new dormitory, an enlarged li­brary, and added endowment. Because the College was approaching its century ":nd a quarter mark, the campaign to raise this great fund was called the 125th Anniversary Development Program.

The response was a positive endorsement

of Trinity's record and an expression of faith in her future. Committees of more than 1000 alumni and friends conducted the campaign, which was to run for a year and a half from January 1947 to June 1948. By commencement week-end of 1948, the entire fund of a million and a half dollars had been subscribed by 4058 different individ­uals.

During that same weekend, cornerstones were laid for the Memorial Field House, in memory of the seventy Trinity men who gave their lives in World War II, and for Elton Hall, a dormitory named for John Prince Elton-an alumnus who had served his College with a lifetime of devotion. Both buildings were completed for use at the start of the fall term last September.

A student body of 884 men living and exercising where 525 had lived before the war re-emphasized the need for a field house to supplement the Alumni Hall gymnasium built in 1887. Memorial Field House, Trin­ity's dream of a decade, now stands as a concrete tribute not only to those seventy men in whose name it was built, but to those thousands of alumni and friends who pledged their support to Trinity's develop­ment.

of a n~w program Its architecture is very modified Gothic

to harmonize with other campus buildings. Brick faced and trimmed in limestone, the square building (163 feet 4 i~ches) is twenty-five feet high at the eaves and fifty­five feet high at the peak The roof in the form of a truncated pyramid is topped by a seventy-foot square monitor, the walls of which are completely of glass for a height of six feet nine inches, for light and ventila-

tion. These clerestory windows eliminate the use of skylights, which frequently leak.

The field house contains a one-tenth mile dirt track eight feet wide. The area inside the track is large enough for a regulation baseball infield, and contains ample space for indoor football practice on rainy days. A removable wooden floor, 85 by 110 feet, serves as a regulation basketball court or as two practice courts.

8

That will s~rv~ our The new dormitory, Elton Hall, was also com­

pleted for student occupancy last September. Robert B. O'Connor, '16, designed the new unit and Richard J. Hill, '39, was chief engineer of the project for the Associated Construction Com­pany of Hartford.

Elton Hall is a four-story, entirely fire-proof unit located off Summit Street near Boardman Hall. Constructed of concrete block, the dormi­tory has a red brick finish with limestone trim. The roof is flat with Gothic crenellations. The dormitory contains a student lounge, twenty-six single rooms, twenty-six suites for two men, and three single professors' suites.

The new building will relieve acute dormitory congestion caused by the return of veterans, and will provide for long-range resident needs as the College returns to an enrollment of somewhat over 650.

Memorial Field House and Elton Hall are­we hope-only lofty precursors of loftier develop­ments soon to be realized on the Hilltop. Trinity College plainly needs an expanded library. The present library in Williams Memorial was built when the College had only 250 students com­pared with the present total enrollment of well over 800, and is completely outgrown both as

tomorrows to stack space and reading room. In addition to the need for new library facilities , it has become increasingly evident that additional endowment is needed by the College.

The first phase of Trinity's long-range develop­ment program is over. The success of this initial campaign represents a great tribute both to the College and to the men and women who pledged their support to Trinity's development. But it is in the lives of the men who will be graduated from Trinity tomorrow that the positive values of these thousands of contributions will be fully realized.

At the close of the 125th Anniversary Devel­opment Campaign, President Funston wrote in regard to its results:

"Our Anniversary Campaign marks the end of the first great step in our long-range Develop­ment Program. It has furnished the College with a major increase in scholarship funds, an en­dowed field house with a sports annex, a dormi­tory, and the principal part of funds needed for the library addition.

"I am confident that the enthusiasm and gener­osity exhibited in the campaign just closed will carry over to the future and that our additional needs, both for the addition to the library and long-range development, will be met in the next few years by Trinity's sons and biends.

"But those are problems for this afternoon. This morning I can only say-thank you again for all your help."

9

During 1948-49, the faculty continued to grow in size and strength. President Funston appointed Dr. Thompson as acting head of the History Department, Dr. Barber as head of the newly established Depart­ment of Government, and Major W. E. Taylor as head of the Military Science and Tactics Department. Sir Alfred Zimmern returned with his ever popular lecture series and seminar. Drs. Bangs, Burger and Hood remained as the men "most likely to be assassinated." "Young George" Cooper did not allow History I members the right to that before-th~-test martini, and "Tiger" Shaw denied that he drove his 600 horse­power Fiat-Special for eight laps around the field house.

President

G. Keith Funston

In 1932, when he was vale­dictorian of his class at Trinity, everyone wished him godspeed. Those who knew him ex­pressed a sincere confidence in him in the uncertain years ahead. No one could look into the nebulous future to predict that the man who had given so much to Trinity College in his undergraduate years would guide its destinies only a decade or so later. Now, a little more than three years have passed since the inauguration of G. Keith Funston as Trin­ity's 15th President. Such a young man we would expect to be still cutting his administra­tive teeth in the academic field. But the erection of a new dormitory, a field house, and the bright .vision of a greatly expanded library stand as con­spicuous testimony to that quality of action whiCh Keith Funston has infused almost overnight into a now more vigorously pulsating campus.

Dean

ARTHUR H. HUGHES Dean of the College

No one who has taken Dean Hughes' renowned Linguistics course can help feeling himself the sole rightful heir to the glories of ancient Hellas. And none of us will ever forget the old American Indian place-names like Char- gogga .. gogg-man-chaugga-gogg­chau-buno-gunga-maug. As Dean of the College and Professor of Modern Languages, Arthur H. Hughes wears an epidermis of congenial, easy-going informality. In reality he is a bear for work and a scholarly perfectionist.

We are qrateful for their quidam:e

Dean JOSEPH - C. CLARKE

Dean of Students

Since he was appointed Dean of Stu­dents last year, Joseph C. Clarke has conferred with students on academic problems and-a more thankless task -has trod the weary winepress of student reformation. Most can be straightened out, some are stubborn, and a few are incorrigible. But he is a sincere friend to them all alike, and with tact, sympathy, and understand­ing exerts every energy toward round­ing out the ruffies in the complex social organism that is Trinity Col­lege.

The Senior Class, after thunderous cam­paigning by the vociferous A. D.'s and the voluble Crows, elected Marty Rouse, Alpha Chi Rho, prexy; Doug Harding, Alpha Delta Phi, vice-prexy; and Sam Edsall, an­other A. D., secretary-treasurer. During the fervent plea for votes, the numerous candidates stumped for class activity, but once the election passed from the scene, tht new officers, like true members of the Fourth Ward, forgot all about it. Any class activity shifted to Vernon Street, where all men, from seniors to freshmen, downed their yells in fraternity parties.

The Junior Class, like her senior sister, had all the pep of the year piped into the class elections. The juniors replied to the "give-the-ball-to-Hall" war chant by elect­ing Roger to the presidency. The Dekes went wild with joy, and many's the tale that a freshman hears of that lurid night at 98 after the votes were in. Fran Mullane of Sigma Nu achieved the office of vice-prexy, and Jay Geiger of Sigma Nu became secre­tary-treasurer of a class which boasted of no letters to write and no money to collect.

As much a part of Trinity as the college seal, the Chapel, classrooms, and athletic fields, Fraternity Row is the center of off­campus activity. Because it is such an im­portant part of life at Trinity it is given special emphasis in this issue. While •he external appearance of each house lends a certain character to each, it is the men in them who mould and shape the destiny of each house. This section provides a glimpse of both features. Rules governing fraternity life will change with time; but the position of fraternities at Trinity is stronger than ever, and gives every sign of continuing strong.

Alpha [hi Rho Alpha Chi Rho Fraternity was founded

at Trinity in 1895, and it has grown to twenty-nine chapters in colleges and uni­versities throughout the country. The Phi Psi Chapter has the honor of being the only national fraternity founded at Trinity Col­lege. The aim of Alpha Chi Rho is to secure a membership of the highest standard. thoroughly homogeneous in quality. and per­manent in its allegiance to and effort for the Fraternity and College. The Fraternity urges good scholarship, athletic endeavor. and literary effort. Through loyal participa­tion in college life the brothers serve the interests of their school and themselves .

Alpha Delta Phi Alpha Delta Phi's forty-two brothers and

three pledges swell this year's membership to near capacity. Except for two years dur­ing World War II the Phi Kappa Chapter has functioned continuously on the Trinity campus since 1877 . The present chapter house at 122 Vernon street was completed in 1880. The name "Phi Kappa" is derived from a secret society known as the Phi Kappa Fraternity founded at Trinity Col­lege in 183..), · the second secret society to be founded there. Its affiliation with a national fraternity was the second such affiliation on the Trinity campus .

D~lta Ilappa Epsilon

There was a large number of neutrals when Trinity opened its fall term in 1877. Some of these men felt that there was a need for another fraternity on campus. It should be. a national fraternity with high standards. The Clio Literary Society was formed by twelve men. In the winter of 1877 the members sought a chapter from a Greek Letter fraternity whose standards met those established by Clio. They chose Delta Kappa Epsilon and petitioned the New York convention in 1878. Their petition was ac­cepted and a charter granted. On May 5, 1879 the Clio Society was incorporated as the Alpha Chi Chapter of Delta Kappa Epsilon.

Delta Phi Delta Phi, third in order of establish­

ment of American college fraternities, was founded in 1827 at Union College. In 1917 a charter was granted eighteen men to form the . Sigma Chapter and the fraternity merged with the old local I.K.A. Society, which was formed here in 1829 and was the oldest local fraternity in the country.

The Chapter occupies the old I.K.A. House. Through the years since its estab­lishment, Delta Phi at Trinity has been well known for its literary achievements, and at present the Chapter is represented on the college faculty by William Gaskell-Harvey and Dr. Arthur Adams.

Delta Psi

The Epsilon Chapter of Delta Psi was founded in 1850, the first nationai fraternity on Trinity's campus . The Civil War brought the first severe test for Epsilon's small mem­bership, but the Hall did not close. In 1878 the beautiful Chapter House, which domi­nates the campus' highest ground, was com ­pleted. World War I left only four brothers on campus, but St. Anthony remained active , and after the war's end gained strength numerically and otherwise. The Second World War forced Trinity's fraterni­ties to close. During the fall term of 1945 St. Anthony was reopened by six returning brothers, to whose zeal a prosperous mem­bersli.ip of thirty-s ix largely owes its present success .

Psi Upsilon

The Beta Beta Chapter of Psi Upsilon culminated from the Beta Beta Society founded in 1842 when Trinity was known as Washington College . It was founded by a group of young men to perpetuate high scholarship and literary enthusiasm. The society was indeed different from fraterni ­ties as they exist today. In 1882 Psi Upsilon established the Beta Beta Society as a chapter, and the Chapter House was located on Washington Street. In 1902, after the college moved to its present site, the chapter acquired a house at 81 Vernon Street. To­day fifty-two members make the largest en­rollment in Beta history .

Sigma Nu

Delta Chi Chapter of Sigma N u was originally founded in 1911 as a local fra ­ternity called Sigma Psi. The Chapter House was located at 85 Allen Place. Since then the fraternity has been located at 76 Vern on Street and 78 Vern on Street where it now stands. In 1918 Sigma Psi was ac­cepted into the national Sigma Nu Fra­ternity. As Dell a Chi Chapter it has re­mained the youngest national fraternity on campus. During the Second World War this was the only house which remained open on campus. In October 1949 Sigma Nu had forty-three brothers and fifteen pledges on the active list.

Theta Xi The Trinity Colony of Theta Xi was born

March 24, 194S. when William T. Robinson became its first pledge. It progressed care­fully through its infancy while attracting ten more pledges. The Colony entered its childhood period when the eleven Founding Fathers became brothers on May 23, 1948. Its early adolescence was marked by rapid growth. Its later adolescence was reached when in mid-October it leased a dwelling at 84 Vernon Street. Now in 1949 the Trinity Colony is about to enter its manhood stage by becoming a chapter which undoubtedly will be a strong, firm, and progressive one.

Trinity [ommons

The Trinity Commons Club, a fraternal organization for neutrals distinct from the Greek letter societies, has reactivated its full program interrupted by the war. Parties, dances, banquets, and a faculty tea were held. The club participated in intramural sports, and will compete in the Interfra­ternity Sing, hoping for the cup after placing for two successive years.

The traditional Chapel memorial service for our deceased brothers was held, T.C.C. alumnus Rev. Alexander Van C. Hamilton, '37 officiating.

The club accomplished much constructive work, installing a new constitution, sending delegates to the Independent Students As­sociation Conference at Syracuse Univer­sity, and obtaining a club lounge.

The Ivy 1949 was blessed by being the first edition in a long line of Ivies to have an actual home. The uppermost story of Elton Hall christened "The Ivy Tower," served as our base of operations.

creep over Hartford in an effort to make the project solvent. At the same time, Harper was able to keep the whip lashing over the creative members of the board.

Thanks are due to John Mason, Ivy 1949 advisor, his secretaries, Isabel Cargill, Enid Goodyear, and Kathleen Foley, and to our publisher's repre-sentative, David C. Jordan, Jr. Withont their blood, sweat, and tears we could hardly have produced what we hope to be a worthy memento to the Class of '49.

Band Since its beginning in the fall of 1947,

the Trinity College Band has quickly be­come a vital and firmly rooted part of the campus life.

This fall it played at all the home foot­ball games and, with financial support from the student body, was able to make the trip to Worcester Tech. Among its major ap­pearances, the Band was effective in its marching and formations at the Wesleyan game in Middletown, and added pageantry to the huge rally the night before. The winter schedule included performances at the major basketball games and preparation for a spring concert.

Mr. Merle Walker, new band director, de­serves much credit for building a more efficient musical unit here. The officers of the Band for this year are William Schmidt, student conductor, Edward Kelley, business manager, Raymond Lang, drum major, Ken­neth Kinner, librarian, and William Horn­ish, assistant manager.

The Interfraternity Council of Trinity College was instituted for a three-fold pur­pose: to promote amicable relations among the fraternities, to promote the standards expressed in the Fraternity Criteria pro­mulgated by the National Interfraternity Conference, and to make recommendations and to take such steps as seem calculated to increase the fraternities ' contribution to col­lege life.

Boosters The Boosters Club was founded in 1945

to promote greater interest in school activi­ties and functions. At its inception the mem­bership was small and the greater part of its efforts were devoted to publicizing ath­letic events, special lectures, and other campus activities of interest. In the past two years the membership has been in­creased to the point where it is now possible to expand its sphere of enterprise.

The Boosters Club is not, nor does it like to believe it is, a restricted or exclusive group. It has the distinction of being the single campus organization which has tried to make every college attraction its special field of endeavor. The club has worked and will continue to work for the increase of school spirit. The 1948-1949 officers are: President, Harvey Bingham; Vice Presi­dent, James Van Loon ; Secretary, Clem Howe; and Treasurer, James Straley.

tive body of the varsity athletic lettermen of Trinity College. Membership is obtained by an individual's winning one major T or two minor letters. in a varsity sport. Stu­dent athletic interests and social activities are co-ordinated into this organization which can represent its needs to the admin­istration and faculty and carry out its pow­ers to the benefit of the entire campus.

This year the club was quite active, hav­ing successively sponsored the "Trinity Turkey Trot" and "Nick's Neighborly Night"-two of the most successful informal dances the Hilltop has eve·r witnessed.

The Trinity term found members operat­ing Field House concessions at basketball games. With increasing membership the entire club looks forward to an even better year in 1949-50.

Engineering [lob The Engineering Club was originally

formed in September 1943. Forced to dis­continue the following term because of the war, it was revived in September of 1946 and has continued to function successfully.

The club has had some interesting and in­formative meetings this year: They featured lectures and motion pictures on aeronautics , electronics, and flood control. Also there were field trips to local industrial plants. In arranging these activities, the club has kept in m ind its purpose of familiarizing the stu­dents with industrial engineering methods and problems.

The club is fortunate in having -as its ad­visor, Harold J. Lockwood, professor of engineering at Trinity College. The officers elected for the 1948-49 academic year were Harmon R. Van Winkle, President ; James C. Van Loon, Jr., Secretary-Treasurer ; and Julian F. Miller, Business Manager.

The Athenaeum Reorganized as the traditional Athenaeum

Society, Trinity's debaters participated suc­cessfuly in more than a score of intercol­legiate speech contests during the 1948-49 season. Under the direction of advisor James Egan, the mooters met with Wes­leyan, Amherst, St. Joseph's, University of Connecticut, Holy Cross, Bryn Mawr, Georgetown University School of Foreign Service, and many other institutions as well as participating in several exhibition debates and discussion groups before civic organiza­tions in the Hartford area.

With the loss through graduation last June of top speakers Sam Goldstein and Harry Rivkin the society adopted its new constitution and elected Peter Van Metre and Robert Reed to be President and Secre­tary for the ~ar. Encouraging as wide a participation as possible in its speech activi­ties, the society entered ten men in inter­collegiate contests.

Pipes

The Pipes, Trinity's choral octet, is one of the most popular extra-curricular organi­zations on campus. Their popularity is spreading so fast that they are beginning to make a career of their entertainment, sing­ing at dances, before civic groups, on radio programs, and even at debuts in New York City.

The Pipes were first organized in 1938 by four Delta Psi men, but since then have lost their fraternal association and are repre­sentative of all the singing talent on the campus.

Occasionally the undergraduate, groggy

from studying, can hear strains of "George Jones" wafting up to his window around ten o'clock as the octet. 9ecides to serenade the college after one of its evening rehearsals.

Veteran members of the group are Jim Stewart, Dick Garrison, Dave Mercer, Paul Thomas, and Bob Hamilton.· New additions are Skip Corwin, Reid Shaw, and Don Wild­rick.

The purpose of such an organization is to perpetuate college melodies for they are part of the lasting memory of one's college life.

Glee [luh

The· Glee Club got off to a good start by having some twenty men return from last year's newly organized group. About forty­five new members were taken in, bringing the total to sixty-five. Most of the new mem­bers were freshmen.

The Glee Club is under the able direction of Professor Clarence E . Watters, noted American concert organist and head of Trinity's Music Department. He is , on oc­casion, assisted by the club's president, Paul L . Thomas. Other officers are : Albert C. King, Vice-President ; Joseph Brush, Busi­ness Manager ; John Petrinovic, Assistant Business Manager ; Wilson Pinney, Librar-

ian; George T. Young, Accompanist. This year's soloists were the baritones

Joseph Brush and Donald Wildrick, and tenor Reid Shaw. Donald Wildrick had his own radio program in New York prior to his coming to Trinity and has been heard over Hartford's radio accompanied by Paul Thomas.

The schedule called for twelve perform­ances with conceits at private schools, be­fore alumni gcmsps, on radio broadcasts, and a joint concert with Pembroke College. The concert with Pembroke College was the sea­son's climax, featuring Mozart's Requiem Mass in D Minor.

Jesters One of the oldest organizations on the

Trinity campus is The Jesters. Organized under the name of the Trinity Dramatic Club in 1871 , its avowed purpose, accord­ing to the Trinity Tablet of that year, was " the cultivation of histrionic talent, in­tellectual improvement, and the entertain­ment of ourselves and others." On December 8, 1894, the organization adopted the name of The Jesters.

The play group died out about the year 1900, but it was revived in 1914 with Mrs. Henry Perkins, wife of Professor Perkins of the Physics Department, as Directress. Richard Barthelmess was a member of the group at that time. He later went to Holly­wood and became famous on the screen, and it was only a few years ago that Mr. Bar­thelmess retired from this active stage and screen work.

With the coming of the Navy V-12 and the Second World War, the Jesters became inactive during 1944 and 1945. However, in 1946, the group was revived with new vigor under the Directorship of Professor J. Bard McNulty of the English Department. Their first postwar production, Boy Meets Girl, was given at the Avery Memorial, where all subsequent productions of The Jesters have been held. They also produced Golden Boy and Jacabowsky and the Col­onel with brilliant success during the same year. Helping to launch the "new" organiza­tion, Mr. Barthelmess visited the Avery and joined in an informal dinner during which time he complimented the members for their high level of work.

Last year, The Jesters produced Dear Ruth, Masque of Kings, and Men in White under Don Craig '48, their first student

director. For the past two seasons, The Jest­ers have operated the Pitchfork Playhouse, a small summer theater in Sharron, Con­necticut. This year Professor Robert Vogel of the English Department is serving as Director. Under his supervision, the group produced Thornton Wilder's Our Town. This production was a drastic departure for the members, and required intensive prep­aration and cooperation on their part to present a successful show. For this play, there is a negligible amount of scenery, thus the cast carries the full burden of creating the illusion of s~ene and keeping the action paced properly.

Recently there has been a promise for the future Jesters of the possibility of bring­ing the group home to the campus for their productions. The college has long wanted this and has been seeking means whereby suitable housing for such a group could be found. No one will be any happier than the Jesters themselves, for they will then have a show that can be called truly a Trinity show.

giving a rea­son why "nearly everbody at Trinity reads the Tripod."

Sunday night comes but once a week-but when it does, all wheels roll.

Tripod The aim of the Tripod in this its forty­

fourth year of publication is to give in­creased coverage of all phases of campus activity. The Paper is governed by an executive board composed of Editor-in-chief Robert W. Herbert, Business Manager Robert D. Bowden, Managing Editor Leonel L. Mitchell, Art Editor Stanley F. Rodgers and News Editor Peter Van Metre.

The advertising was managed this year by John B. McGaw while circulation was handled by John MacKesson. The feature department was under the direction of

George Stowe until his graduation in Feb­ruary when John Coote assumed that post.

Co-editing the sports section are Marshall Rankin and William Wetter. Brainard Rau as Associate Editor wields a provocative pen while the long-suffering Evan "Twitch" Woollacott edits the "Down Fraternity Row" column.

The chores of the rewrite department are ably borne by Edgar Matthews, while Make­up Editor Arthur Austin placates the printer. Arthur Brown is in charge of photography.

Bob Stanger, veteran flyer, has been responsible for the continued interest in flying at Trinity.

This year the Flying Club made a new contact with the Hartford Flying Service at Brainard Field. Under its provision a group of ten or more club members paying $10 a month dues may fly at the reduced rate of $6 solo and $9.50 duo per hour. In addition, one hour of flying time is included free with each month's dues. Two Aeronca Cham­pions are always available to club members and two able instructors are on hand for lessons.

Last fall two students, Biddle and Whitaker, made their first solo flights and there are several more on. the way. As a

member of the Association of New England College Flying Clubs, Trinity has partici­pated in several breakfast flights and flying meets represented by Clipp, Stanger, and Spurdle. Several members have rented planes for weekend cross-country flights to other colleges such as Smith and Vassar which is only forty-five minutes away by air.

Next year we are looking forward to in­creased membership possibly large enough to purchase a club plane. Such a plane would reduce costs by about one half which in itself would encourage more students to join.

Nautical Association The Trinity Nautical Association has

been in full swing since the beginning of the fall term, having participated in all sched­uled races for the Intercollegiate Yacht Racing Association in Connecticut, Massa­chusetts, Rhode Island and Vermont. It is of interest to note that the sailors competed with a total of fifty-three different colleges during the year and managed to place thir­teenth.

Once again the activities were curtailed to a large extent due to the lack of a home fleet. A considerable amount of money has been collected this year by showing movies, and with these additional funds it is hoped that the fleet will be greatly increased by next spring.

The Trinity sailing teams this year were characterized by their adaptability to shift­ing winds, which were found so often at the Brown Y. C. and inclement weather.

The Association plans to set up a new land base at the W ethetsfield Cove this spring where the additional boats will be put into commission.

Officers of the Nautical Association dur­ing the past year have been. Jon Lambert, Commodore, Michael Mitchell, Vice Com­modore, G. Keith Funston, Rear Commo­dore (honorary), Amos Hutchins, Secretary, Brooks Maue, Assistant Secretary, and Frederick Campbell Treasurer.

One exceptionally fine gesture made by the club was the· invita­tion and transportation of Stavros Demopol­ous, injured Wesleyan football player, to three of the Trinity home football games.

The Senate The greatest gain for this year's Senate

was the realization that student government at Trinity has been given the green light. The Senate's greatest loss, and one felt by every student, was the death of its Presi­dent, Boots Holljes, a leader who left a deep impression upon all who worked with him in college affiairs. After Boot's death Bud Overton became Acting President, Bob Boyle became Secretary, and Ray Hoffman continued as Treasurer.

Members of the Senate worked manfully to keep up with the press of business. They formulated frosh regulations, draped black ties around frosh necks, launched the Inter­dorm Council, guided Thursday assemblies, and secured an official College tie for Trinity men. And after writing a gross of critical and commendatory letters to various people, keeping tabs on every organization and club, the Senate ended the year with the awful task of trying to balance its budget.

Prot~stant F~llowship The Protestant Fellowship was formed in

the Autumn of 1947, its members dedicating themselves to the purpose of providing a group in which to explor~ the history of Protestantism, its influence upon the world and its relationship to present day· society. At the same time it was hoped to broaden the cultural background and enrich the re­ligious life of the college community. The Fellowship's aim this year has been to stimulate interest and increase its member­ship. During Lent, this year as last, the Fellowship attended Dr. Cam~ron's lecture series on the history of the Christian Church. After building up its membership this year, the Protestant Fellowship plans a series of connected lectures, probably on Classical Protestantism, for next autumn. This year, the executive board was com­prised of David Aldeborgh, President; Rob­ert Reed, Vice President; Paul Ruthman, Secretary; Irving Hamilton, Treasurer, and Dr. Roger Shaw for Faculty Adviser.

organized at Trinity in the fall of 1946 to fulfill the increasing needs of Jewish stu­dents for a religious, cultural, and social outlet.

Since its inauguration, Hillel has brought to its members and guests many leaders in the fields of religion, education, and science.

The society has also offered several dis­cussion and seminar groups such as the Bible seminar conducted last year. Under the leadership of Rabbi Samuel Sandmel, our new adviser from Yale University, it is hoped to expand this phase of the program ne'xt year.

The Canterbury Club is a chartered mem­ber of the national association of Canter­bury Clubs, whose purpose is to serve the missions of Christianity in higher education, and to forward the worship, study, and work of the Episcopal Church.

This year's theme, "The Layman and the Church," reemphasizes the duties and re­sponsibilities of members of the Church and points out the many opportunities for serv­ice afforded the average layman. Many fine talks, followed by discussions, were given by prominent priests and laymen. The club also sponsored corporate communions for faculty and members at regular intervals. Ten members represented the college at the Student Christian Movement Conference on Churchmanship m Boston during this vyinter.

As a large-scale service project, the club continued its practice of selling College

hristmas Cards and giving the proceeds to worthwhile charities and relief organiza­tions.

The Newman Club, now in its ninth year, continues to further the religious and intel­lectual life of Catholic stu<ients and to pro­mote closer fellowship among its members. Joseph DeGrandi, succeeding Francis Aus­tin as president in November, ran club activities efficiently. The steering commit­tee, appointed by Father Callahan, submit­ted suggestions for the improvement of the club, proposed speakers for meetings, and acted as contact agents among the students.

Outstanding activities of the club were the annual communion breakfast, a dance held with St. Joseph's College, and a week­end retreat in the spring. As its contribution to the observance of International Students Day, the Club sponsored a round table dis­cussion on the international role of educa­tion. Professor George B. Cooper acted as moderator and a number of students from foreign countries, not all of whom were members of the club, composed the panel.

Medusa

Founded in 1893, the Medusa is one of the oldest honor societies on campus. The secret society is limited to seven members of the Senior class who are chosen for char­acter, leadership, and scholarship. Its main duty is to uphold College traditions, but as a disciplinary council it has the power to recommend individuals for censure or ex­pulsion.

National Student Association

During the past year the National Stu­dent Association has grown in stature and extended its influence considerably at Trinity. Its projects were varied but were all aimed at better understanding and tm­provem~nt of conditions at college.

Last fall the N.S.A. helped promote the World Student Service Fund drive, which collected eight hundred dollars-three times the previous year's amount. It submitted an excellent comparative report on conditions in the library written by Harry Bracken, and distributed information on work, study and travel abroad. Partially as a result of N.S.A.

promotion, a course in marriage was insti­tuted in the coll~ge curriculum.

The commission is currently working on a plan for a Campus Chest which would inte­grate as one fund the many charities to which the student body is · asked to con­tribute. It is, moreover, considering the question of admission of foreign students on the Bowdoin Plan and is studying a pro­gram for providing educational motion pictures.

While not successful in all of its ventures, the N .S.A. commission is firm in its hope of furthering student interests .

Radio Station From a makeshift transmitter m a stu­

dent's room in Jarvis in 1946 to an opera­tional three section studio-control set-up in Cook that rivals many a small commercial radio station-that is the story of WRTC.

It is a story that goes b3ck all the way to 1942 when Charles Saunders constructed a wired heating system transmitter and broad­cast record music to his fe·llow students in Cook and Woodward. Charlie returned from the Army in the fall of 1946 and, along with Donald Shippy, Ed Higgins, and David Shroeder, established a real campus radio station. With each man investing fifty dol­lars the station bought a microphone, two turntables, and had a transmitter built. All of this equipment was installed in Ed Hig­gins's bedroom.

The station set a record for an Intercol­legiate Broadcasting System affiliate by getting on the air less than a month after it was granted a trial membership. That first year's programming, arrange·d by Higgins, saw the st3tion with a predominantly musi­cal fare. Campus news and sports supple­mented the recorded music. Charlie Saun­ders was Station Manager, Don Shippy, Technical Director, and Dave Shroeder, Special Features Director.

The fall of 194 7 found the station expand­ing its special features along the sporting lines as Tom Gorman, Sports Director, an­nounced several of Trinity's "away" football games, including one against Norwich Uni­versity, three hundred mile·s away in North­field, Vermont. Several "away" basketball games were also handled.

In the winter of 1948, negotiations were

opened for moving from the small Tripod office where the station had been set up the previous fall to new quarters of its own. By early spring, WRTC had worked out the design for the new studios, which were ready just in time for the 125th Anniversary celebration. In the beginning of the Christ­mas term, the radio station was accepted as a full-fledged student activity. Sam Edsall was elected Station Manager. A new trans­mitter replaced the original one, and the control room rack filled up with .new acces­sories. Outside telephone lines brought Trinity students the Joe Strong organ pro­gram from the Heublein and basketball games from the new Field House.

The Program Director during the Christ­mas term, Fred Campbell, not only handled programming but started plans to originate a network with Smith, Wesleyan, and Con­necticut's Fort Trumbull extension. In March, the Connecticut Valley Network was opened between Trinity and Smith, with Sam Edsall as network Technical Director.

Never in its brief history has WRTC's future looked so promising. The new net­work is under way, coverage of Trinity sports is being ably handled by Bob Mullins and Red Thomas, new record shelves and equipment are being constructed under the guidance of Doc Dorman, Musical Director, and announcing assignments are being handled by Jim Stanley, who has succeeded John Paddon as Chief Annou~cer.

Intramural Wrestling held a highlight posi­tion in the Spring Intramural Program.

Intramural Board A chance to share experiences on the field

of play is one of the most valuable things a person can gain. In the mingling of individu­als under competition, one sees his neighbor under conditions found in no other phase of life. These experiences give a person a broad viewpoint , help him become a better judge of his associates , give him self-as­surance when thrown into others' company, and teach him the true meaning of loyalty, cooperation, and sportsmanship.

This is why an intramural program exists and in managing it the board sticks by this ideal.

Football

With the loss of but three men from the 1947 Trinity team, which was one of New England's outstanding small college elevens, great interest was centered on what the 1948 season would produce. Back to lead a gather­ing of seventeen lettermen to the pre-season practice were co-captains and tackles Joe Ponsalle and Mitch Holmgren. Also a wel­come sight to coaches Jessee, Beidler, and Parks were the group of Sophomores up from last season's yearling squad.

The first game of the season saw Trinity travel up to WILLIAMS to test a team that

was labeled in pre-season write-ups as one of New England's better clubs due to the sterling Freshman squad they had the previ­ous year. However, the first few minutes set the pattern of play as Trinity moved rapidly down the field, Corcoran scoring from the two. Taking complete charge after the score, Trinity dominated "the play throughout the game which was featured by long runs by Corcoran and Eblen, Frank standing out in particular. The whole squad got a workout as Trinity opened the season with a 33 to 6 victory.

We rallied round The following week saw a completely

outclassed, out-maneuvered, NORWICH eleven being buried under an avalanche of ten touchdowns as Trinity won 65 to 0. This was the third highest margin recorded in Trinity's football history. Eblen, the of­fensive star of the first game was injured

I I I With persistent Homecoming day saw Trinity completely

overwhelm HOBART 52 to 0. Barrows. Hall and Corcoran turned in some eye-filling runs, but probably the best play of the day was Pickett's sixty yard dash for a touch­down after taking Whitey's pitchout. The team continued to roll up yardage, and was ranked second in the country in total team offensive and ranked sixth defensively in tfie nation. This marvelous record was due to the well-coordinated efforts of a well­balanced backfield operating behind a strong line.

The MIDDLEBURY encounter saw a strong and well drilled Vermont club hand Trinity its first defeat of the season 24 to 13. Capitalizing on a number of breaks they led at half-time, 12 to 0. At the beginning

of the third quarter Trinity began to func;:­tion as it had in previous weeks and within five minutes, long runs by Eblen and Cor­coran put us in the lead 13 to 12. Later in the period however, Middlebury blocked Kunkiewcz's kick and went on to score. Using straight power plays and fighting to keep possession of the ball Middlebury walked off the field with a hard earned vic­tory.

Seven days later, Trinity re-entered the victory parad'e as it thrilled the homecoming crowd at WORCESTER TECH with a marvelous display of speed, deception and power. Aided by the running ability of backs, Carroll, Corcoran, and Hall along with a sterling performance by our whole forward wall, the Blue and Gold returned to Hartford with a well deserved 33 to 6 win.

assured in the early seconds of the game when Bob Barrows intercepted a Hammond pass and scored easily. From then on it proved to be a sad afternoon for the Mas­sachusetts clan. Six more of their passes were intercepted and three of their punts blocked before the afternoon was over. Thus with the whole team performing magnifi­cently, Trinity handed Amherst its worst defeat of the series' history 46 to 0.

In the WESLEY AN game, which saw our arch-rivals continue their three-year un­defeated string, Trinity was shut out for the first time. The first half was brilliantly played by both teams-outstanding was Hall's plunging for he tore through Wes­leyan's vaunted line at will. Both teams put on drives only to be held a few yards short of the goal-line. With seconds to go before the end of the half, Wesleyan kicked a field goal and took the lead 3 to 0. The third period saw Wesleyan score quickly and then hold off two scoring bids by Trinity. The final period was all W es­leyan as they took control, blocking Kun­kiewicz's punt and recovering it for a touch­down to complete the scoring, Wesleyan again the victor, 16 to U.

Thus ended the 1948 grid season and to tabulate the record: it was five wins and two losses for a Trinity squad which estab­lished itself in the national book of statistics by ranking as the second strongest team offensively and the fifteenth defensively. The large factors contributing to 'the of­fensive punch were the acc.uate passing of the backs and the yard gaining pitch-out plays used so effectively at almost any point on the field of play. The many men respon­sible for this offensive record helped to obtain the defensive rating by their dogged and undying will to stop the opponent.

There are many key men who will no longer wear the blue and gold of Trinity on the football field . Whitey Kunkiewicz, a work horse in the Trinity backfield both offensively and defensively for the past

three years , and co-captains Joe Ponsalle and Mitch Holmgren, the former being se­lected as the right tackle on the mythical all-New England college eleven, will all be leaving. Rounding out the group are, Charlie Osborne, standout end all year, and Cy Sey­mour, who played both end and center on the 1948 squad. These two men, though never playing sensationally, added a steady­ing, reliable brand of play which was es­sential to the smooth-running unit Trinity fielded each week.

Although each game had its particular of­fensive and defensive standouts, it was the combined efforts of a well-trained line plus a well balanced backfield with speed, power, and deception which produced the necessary unity of action that made the season a suc­cess.

A top-flight The Trinity College basketball team,

plagued by the loss of Red Faber and by the lack of competent reserve strength, ·inaugu­rated its first season in the Memorial Field House with a record of eight wins as against eight losses. The record, however, does not spe-ak for the true worth of the team. Many of those losses could have been converted into wins with one more ounce of effort. The first Wesleyan game, the Union fracas or even the Williams fray are indicative of that. Man for man, the boys were superior to every team we played, but it is just that on a few occasions they lacked a certain unity of action whcih prevented them from com­ing out on top.

A few singular highlights of the season were: Ron Watson's breaking the Trinity individual scoring record when he tossed in thirty-two points during the Amherst game; Bill Pitkin's sterling defensive play and the way he consistently controlled both back­boards throughout the season ; Moon Cur­tin's terrific hook shot, which when it was on made the team look unbeatable ; Pon­salle leading the team to its first basketball victory in three years over Wesleyan; and best of all was the marvelous game the whole team played against Union in the final contest of the year.

Jim Grant and Captain Jim Glassco did some swift back-stroking ; and with men like Phil Costa, Tim Cutting, Johnny Grill , and Ward Van­derbeek in the 100 yard free style, and dis­tance men Dave Edwards, Bob Parker, and Ted Lawrence, the team did some fine swim­ming, being aided also by Bill Dobbs, Jim Holliday, and Winky Bennett.

Last September a determined group of soccer men turned out to begin training under their new coach, Harold Shetter. Cap­tain Jay Geiger led the boys to the most successful season any soccer team at Tri~­ity has enjoyed since the war. Although the team fell victim to close scores against both Yale and Wesleyan, it displayed that tradi­tional Trinity zeal and fight and in each contest Trin could not be counted out until the final whistle blew.

Captain Geiger, Nick Nelson and Court Nelson were chosen on the All-New Eng­land Squad, and later both of the Nelsons received honorable mention on the All American Squad. Bob Wood, who played a great game at fullback this year has been chosen to lead the hooters next season.

When the cross country team turned out for its first practice late in September, there was someone missing from the 1947 squad. It was Ed Lemieux, holder of Trin's mile and two mile records . He returned, however, to assume the difficult assignment of mould­ing a team out of a handful of eager but inexperienced sophomores. That he suc­ceeded was evidenced by the fact that there was sptnt of cohesion and cooperation among the members of the team by the season's end. Improvement, too , was not missing and led by Captain Wolford , Jack Kearns and Mountain Brown, their record next year is sure to be most commendable.

Although the loss of Joe Julavitz, pitcher extraor­dinary, has greatly crippled the mound staff, Jack Scully is ag-ain back and it is hoped that such sophomores as Heppenstall , Farrell, Prosiatkowski, and Walker will take up the slack in that department . As it looks now, " Whitey" Kunkiewicz will be behind the plate, Captain Mahon at first , Rouse at second, Ludorf at shortstop, and Barrows at third. The outfield is a toss-up between Heinz, Leahy, Sharpe, Corcoran, Schwerdt­ferger and Redden.

Squash The 1949 squash team, although still very

much a yearling squad, merits some well­deserved applause for the definite improve­ment they displayed over last year's squad. Captain Jay Geiger, in particular, should be noted for his outstanding record in winning four of his six intercollegiate matches, not

to mention his being undefeated in the Hart­ford Intercity League.

Credit especially should be given to Coach Dan Jessee, for this year again he had few proven performers with which to work. But yet with a determined mind, he produced a team worthy of the name of Trinity.

l·ennis The tennis team this year, although per­

haps lacking in depth, was not lacking in either spirit or training. With but two letter winners returning 'from last year's squad, Ben Torrey and Gus Stewart, Coach Harold Shetter was forced to depend greatly on last year's Frosh squad. Entering the var-
