INDEX • 1940
kAAQQA r Ul iCCTTC
PREFACE .. .
/"^ANDID shots of campus life seen
^-^ through a student's eyes will give
the 1940 Index a true-to-life resume of
the past year at State. With pictures, a
lively style, and a really typical keynote,
the Index depicts students and faculty
as they are seen daily — without extreme
realism and without the idealistic aura of
the college movie. This escape from dessi-
cated formality will give its readers the
flavor of life at State unadorned by con-
vention or by rose-colored glasses. Though
simple, the student's existence possesses
pleasant aspects common only to the
State campus. Making a novel approach
chiefly by use of photography, the Index
has captured the essence of State College
activity both in and out of the class room.

CHARLES PAUL ALEXANDER ty-
pifies all that is best in the American
tradition of Science and Education, com-
bining, as he does, the admirable traits of
a stimulating and inspiring teacher, and
those of a brilliant scholar and leader in
scientific investigation.
In his chosen field of research, the
study of the Tipulidae, Dr. Alexander is
known throughout the scientific world as
the leading authority; his zest and inde-
fatigable industry in this field are worthy
of the emulation of all who seek to add to
the sum of human knowledge.
As a teacher, his varied interests and
encyclopaedic knowledge arouse our deep-
est admiration and respect, while his
magnetic personality and his infectious
enthusiasm, together with his intensely
human qualities of mind and heart, en-
dear him to all who have been so for-
tunate as to be associated with him.
In dedicating this Index to Dr. Alex-
ander, the students of the Massachusetts
State College not only express their ad-
miration for a loved friend and mentor,
but also reflect the universal esteem of
the students and faculty alike, for an out-
standing scholar and investigator — one
whose international repute gives added
prestige to the renown of our College
throughout the realm of scientific re-
search. G. C. Crampton

President s Message
The Index reminds me of a popular
song of a few years ago entitled "Just a
Memory." But the Index is more than
"Just a Memory" for through its illustra-
tions and narrative it gives enduring life
to the cherished friendships and the ex-
citing experiences of the Campus. The
old alumnus finds in the Index what
Ponce de Leon sought in the fountain of
youth. With it we are able, as the years
roll by, to live again those happy college
years and renew our youth in the record
of their pleasant experiences.

IN RECOGNITION
This year marks the retirement of two of the outstanding men on campus; one
from the faculty, Dr. Joseph S. Chamberlain, Goessman Professor of Chemistry;
the other from the administration, Treasurer Fred C. Kenney.
Born in 1870 on a middle western farm. Professor Chamberlain graduated in
1890 from Iowa Agricultural College. After being graduate assistant at his alma
mater for five years, he took advantage of winter vacations to study chemistry at
Johns Hopkins University where he received a scholarship and fellowship. In 1889
he received the degree of Ph.D. for an investigation in organic chemistry. Years
spent as a chemistry instructor and a research assistant and years in the Bureau of
Chemistry in Washington and a year in Germany with the noted Emil Abderholden,
led to his appointment to the M.A.C. chemistry staff in 1909.
His achievements are many. He has written two texts on chemistry. He is a
councillor of the A.C.S. and a fellow in the American Association for the Advance-
ment of Science. From 1928 to 1934 he was head of the Chemistry department, be-
sides being professor of organic chemistry. From 1934 to the present he has been
Goessman Professor of Chemistry.
But he was not the cold scientist in his thirty-one years at "Aggie" and State. He
has always shown a deep interest in the success of all students with whom he has
come in contact, offering advice and encouragement.
With a record as lengthy and serviceable. Treasurer Kenney has also retired
this year. Born of pioneer stock in Michigan in 1869, he has lived a full life. In the
course of time he has been affiliated with the U.S. Army, the M. & N. Railroad,
Michigan Agricultural College and finally State College.
The College owes Treasurer Kenney a tribute for his good judgment of char-
acter, his accurate and methodical work, and his shrewd business sense.

IN MEMORIAM
A true "Son of Old Massachusetts," a member of the class of '83 who has seen
the college grow to many times its original size, Dr. Joseph B. Lindsay has been
fondly called "Joe Lindsey" by students and colleagues for the forty years of his life
at Massachusetts State College. While an undergraduate, he was vice-president
of the Washington Irving Society which grew into the present Alpha Sigma Phi
fraternity. A favorite student of Professor Goessmann back in '83, he completed his
studies at Gottingen, Germany, and in 1911 was designated Goessmann Professor
of Agricultural Chemistry. Since then, he has continued teaching on campus.
No one connected with the College in 1892 or for forty years thereafter has
failed to know Joe Lindsey, if only by reputation. His personality will stand out
among his fellow professors. In the words of Cicero, "he was an eloquent man who
treated humble subjects with delicacy, lofty things impressively, and moderate
things temperately." In terms of the advance of State College his name will never be
totally forgotten. As a scientist and research worker, his fame likewise has long been
established and his unceasing industry will in years serve as an inspiration to bud-
ding chemists. His death last year marked a long and useful life.

MASSACHUSETTS STATE COLLEGE INDEX
SENIOR CLASS
In September 1939, 230 men and women registered as seniors at
State ; perhaps 220 of them will graduate in June 1940. They are all
that are left of the more than 300 who first entered the college in
September 1936. When they came in 1936 they represented col-
lectively, though they were completely unconscious of that fact, a
good cross-section of the youth of Massachusetts. Somewhat more
ambitious than the average high school graduate, and gifted with a
slightly higher intelligence, they came to take advantage of the low-
cost education which the Commonwealth was offering in Amherst.
From the cities and from the country they came; from Lawrence,
and Brockton and Lynn and Holyoke; from Boston and its sub-
urban fringes, from Connecticut Valley and Berkshire Hill farms
they came. Most of them came from middle-class homes, of non-
college-educated parents. Most of them expected to earn part of
their own college expenses. The more determined and more clever
of them have stayed and will get their diplomas in 1940. Some of
them have managed to avoid getting the education for which they
came; at the other extreme, some students have seized every modi-
cum of the education made available (yet, as they approach gradu-
ation, realize how little educated they actually are in the face of the
vast and confused field of modern knowledge). Whatever college

CLASS HISTORY
I
BRAD WILLIAMS came to State Col-
lege from Melrose. But that doesn't
matter: it could have been Medford or
Worcester; or he might have come from
Turners Falls where Lou Bush had made
Mass. State a household word. He might
have come to State because his father,
like Don Shaw's, had graduated with the
class of '07; or he might have come, like
Bert Gregg or Chet Tiberii, to study
agriculture; or because his mother, when
they had driven through had liked the
campus spread out over green New Eng-
land countryside. But he didn't. Brad
came to State College mostly because his
family couldn't afford Dartmouth, and
because he wasn't attracted to Boston
University or Tufts.
He had never been in Amherst before
September 21, 1936. He swears that he
will never forget that date. He liked
Thatcher Hall even before he had un-
loaded his trunk. And even before he
shook hands with his father, and his
mother had kissed him wistfully goodbye,
he knew that he would like the bright-
eyed, sports-coated, maroon-capped fresh-
men he saw in the corridors. Later the
thought of the view from his window — of
the dense hemlocks on the bank opposite,
and of the long white walk down to
campus — was to seize him with nostalgia.
Brad lived through freshman week in a
state of perpetual excitement. He entered
the rope pull with enthusiasm and shared
in the triumph of his class. He got up at
six o'clock every morning for a week to
sing college songs in front of the Abbey,
where he stood half-frozen in the damp
air. In spite of certain secret convictions
to the contrary, he learned to regard all
coeds as utterly unattractive. He lost his
shirt and got a bloody nose razoo night.
He explored the pine-scented trails of
Toby on Mountain Day; took candid
camera shots of Freida Hall and Betty
Abrams resting at the summit; paused to
admire the Indian Summer beauty of the
Connecticut Valley below; and sang his
heart out around the giant campfire at
Roaring Brook. He visited eleven fra-
ternities, shook hands with 400 members,
partook liberally of the refreshments, and
enjoyed himself immensely; but when it
was over, he couldn't remember even the
names of the houses. He learned that all
Amherst boys were "Willies," and prized
as his finest trophy the green cap which he
brought home from one of the desultory
raids to the Amherst campus. He was a
ringleader in several wonderful water
fights at Thatcher Hall. He sat in on in-
numerable bull sessions, late at night, and
almost came to blows with Herb Burns
over the question of reorganizing the Su-
preme Court. He stayed up past one
o'clock every Sunday night preparing a
theme for Dr. Helming; and then hurried
off to class sleepy and breakfastless the
next morning. Suddenly, he was seized
with fear that he was going to flunk out
of college. Rumors circulated that more
than thirty freshmen had flunked out at
■ft
11'
I
MASSACHUSETTS STATE COLLEGE INDEX
the end of the first semester last year. He
went to see his advisor and found that he
was flunking chemistry and was low in
German and English. Professor Fessen-
den reprimanded him mildly and sug-
gested that he study more regularly.
Hour exams crowded faster into his life,
and he did study more regularly.
Winter came and passed; and Spring
came, beautifying the campus and the
view off toward Mount Toby. He got up
at 5 00 o'clock one morning to go for a
bird walk with Bill Nutting through the
fields and damp meadows east of campus.
Afternoons, he sometimes went off to
Clarke Hill to take a sun bath, and while
notes from the chapel clock floated up
from the beauty of the campus below —
two o'clock. . . three o'clock . . four o'clock
he sat arguing over sports with Ma]
Trees, or talking about girls with Hal
Straube, or discussing the universe with
Doug Cowling.
He was never to forget those exciting
days of his freshman year — of rollicking
songs and comradeship, of light-hearted
scuffings and water fights in the dormi-
tory, of interminable bull sessions, and
then the pathos of sitting up afterward
until three o'clock to study for an exam.
II
Brad might have come back early in
September 1937, for he looked forward to
his sophomore year. But his job kept him
at home until the last minute. He arrived
on campus as the chapel bell was ringing
for Opening Convocation, and he strofled
up the walk to Stockbridge Hall with the
pleasant sensation of belonging.
Over a "coke" in the college store he
9p9
9irc
told Charlie Powers about the wonderful
summer he had spent, and listened to
Charlie's equally glowing account of the
girls he had met at Lake Sunapee. He
eyed the freshmen critically, and went to
the Freshman Reception to meet the new
coeds. Then sophomore life began to take
form, its outline fixed by required courses
in Pats, science, and military. He had
never ridden before, and was frankly
nervous when he stood beside his horse
for the first time. Before long he had
learned to trot and was enjoying that
brisk ride in the cool autumn morning.
Major Connor's sung cavalry commands,
"Slow Trot Ho-00" and "By Threes by
the Right Flank, Ho-00" impressed him
deeply.
He decided that he ought to start going
to dances. He asked Jean Raymond to the
first informal and then to a vie party at
the house. He found himself meeting her
in the library evenings and walking back
to the Abbey with her. Then they began
[78;
going to all the dances, and to the social
unions and plays, and to the football
games together. He appreciated now
what a wonderful institution Amherst
week end — the rally and the round-robin
of house parties — was. By then he thought
that Jean had the most wonderful dark
eyes that he had ever looked into; and his
rommate was warning him that if he
didn't stop talking about how beautiful
she was, he would ask Mrs. Broughton to
keep him down in the Abbey. Sunday
afternoons they walked hand-in-hand
over the countryside exploring roads be-
yond campus. It was always thus with
young love.
After the Winter Carnival, Jean was
THE NINETEEN HUNDRED AND FORTY
1^
not the same friendly vivacious girl, hut
was cool and elusive. He came back from
his dates alternately miserable and hope-
ful. Then they broke up. Jean went care-
lessly on her way, but he was heart-broken
with longing just for the sight of her. He
found himself singing Stardust with melan-
choly earnestness; then to forget, he
turned to recreation. He went bowling
with Rog Brown and Jim Buckley; he
went to the movies or bummed down to
Mountain Park with Chuck Mansfield.
When Spring came, he started going to
"Studes" at Mount Holyoke; and then
his roommate got him a blind date at
Sm.ith, where he met the girl whom he
later brought to hear Artie Shaw at the
Soph-Senior Hop. When he left college in
June, something of the old naivete and
boyishness was gone from inside him, and
he was older and wiser.
Ill
Brad came back to college early to be-
gin his junior year. He was living at the
fraternity house now, and he wanted to
help get it ready for the arrival of the
freshmen. He swept rugs, washed win-
dows, sandpapered furniture, and painted
floors until the big old house was as shin-
ing and neat as a child groomed for an
annual visit to his aunt. He saw fraternity
rushing from the inside and discovered
that it was not so much fun for upper-
classmen as for freshmen. During the
rushing season the hurricane swept
through Amherst leaving the town like a
war village — the main street choked with
fallen trees and debris and houses half
battered in. It made calling off classes a
necessity and deprived Fraternity Row of
electricity and shut off telephone com-
munication with Northampton for two
weeks.
AVhen life settled down again, Brad
was surprised to find himself enjoying his
studies. The required sophomore courses
had been difficult for him (how he had
envied Bill Shepardson and Bob Chap-
man for the ease with which they got
nineties in physics while he wrestled long
hours with it merely to pass). He had
given up his plan to major in chemistry.
He planned his day so as to use his time
to greater advantage; and he studied
harder than he ever had before. But he
just had to go to dances and basketball
games. He heard Glenn Miller at the
Winter Carnival Ball. He watched State
take one frantic victory from Amherst
and lose another in the cage. Sometimes
he couldn't resist the temptation to bull
session, and then he stayed up late to
study and went to classes bleary-eyed
and half asleep just as he had done fresh-
man and sophomore years. He was hardly
conscious of the weeks speeding by, until
suddenly it was June.
IV
State College was more a part of Brad
Williams when he came back to campus
in September 1939. He was a senior now
and Massachusetts State was his Alma
Mater. When he was an underclassman
he had watched such things as the birth
of the Collegicm Quarterly, the meeting of
300 Model League of Nations delegates
on campus, and even the granting of the
A.B. degree with indifference. But now he
was enthusiastic for the growth of the
college. He cheered President Baker for
4.
MASSACHUSETTS

STATE
COLLEGE
INDEX
the announcement that two new dormi-
tories were to be built, and waited eagerly
for the ground to be broken. Even in his
envy he liked the new Kappa Sigma Fra-
ternity House. He looked forward confi-
dently to the day when his Massachusetts
State would be a great State Univer-
sity. Brad was older now, too, and he
enjoyed things which would have bored
him three years before. He sat enraptured
at the lecture which Carl Sandburg de-
livered at Social Union. For the first time,
he bought a ticket to the Community
Concert series. He attended occasional
meetings of the Fine Arts Council, and
paused once in a while to look at the ex-
hibits of modern paintings in the Me-
morial Building. He discovered that he
preferred the New York Times; and he
read Hcifpers and The Nation almost as
often as Colliers and Life.
Some of Brad's closest friends were the
"Big Men on Campus" now. Walking
arovmd under the same senatorial hats
which had been so awesome to Brad Wil-
liams— the freshman, were fellows with
whom he had worked and played, and
studied for three years — Larry Reagan
was President of the Senate, and Al
Irzyk, Tap, and big Carl Nelson were pro-
minent members. Myron Hager, in addi-
tion to being President of the Class, was
equivalent to about half the famous men's
quartet. Brad was a minor power in his
own right. He was a leader at his fraterni-
ty house, and the underclassmen listened
when he spoke at meetings. He flattered
himself that freshman men regarded him
with some deference, and he took the
freshman co-eds in his stride.
More and more as his senior year fled
from him. Brad began to wonder about
the future, black, unknown, and forbid-
ding beyond graduation. The stark reality
of what he had vaguely realized for two
years — that a background of history and
English wasn't a readily cashable asset
for a job-hunting graduate — suddenly im-
pressed him. He often talked the situa-
tion over with his roommate, and wrote
more about it to his family. He went to
see Mr. Glatfelter; and discussed it with
Professor Goldberg. He decided to seek
entrance at a graduate school. With that
aim in mind he studied even harder;
though at the same time he wanted to
take advantage of the social opportunities
of college days.
When June came, and he walked slowly
across the green campus lawns in his cap
and gown with his father and mother, his
thoughts went back to that mellow Sep-
tember day when they had first left him
at Thatcher Hall. How short a time it
seemed since he first put on his freshman
cap; or even since he went to the first
informal with Jean. At the Soph-Senior
Hop that night he felt how much State
College was a part of his life. He would
be sorry, tomorrow, to leave it forever.

JUNIOR CLASS
The Junior has passed the half-way mark of his college career.
But it is more than a designation of time that he has passed; it is
a world. The Junior is a man of memories. Faces that he once con-
sidered as land-marks on campus have gone forever and they leave
a gap which the Junior finds hard to fill.
The new world which the Junior faces has lost some of the
glamour and romance of the "movie college." The demands of the
outside world have begun to make themselves known. The cat-
alogue and the offered courses have become more than matters of
idle curiosity and butts of jokes. Juniors think in terms of careers
after graduation and bread-and-butter matters.
For more than two years, now, the Junior has been subjected to
varied bombardments of courses. Science and the liberal arts have
been handed to him in well-proportioned doses. The ambitions he
started out with may have been modified or discarded a thousand
different times, but at last he is sensing a crystalhzation. For not
only is he obtaining an education; he is actually studying and con-
centrating on his major.
The goal of his college career is almost within his grasp now, and
the Junior reaches firmly toward it. His stumbling around in the
dark has ended finally, and his two-year meandering among "guts"
and sciences and liberal arts has reached a smooth stretch with an
objective in view.

SOPHOMORE CLASS
As glorious as it may have been, the freshman year is but a mem-
ory to the Sophomore. He has climbed a mountain and is master of
all he surveys and, somehow or other, freshmen are always under
his surveillance. With characteristic vengeance, the Sophomore
takes the freshman under his wing and introduces him to part of
the college which isn't found in books. True, his enthusiasm for
instruction is a bit dampened at the rope-pull and rather subdued
on razoo night. These trivialities, however, are more than offset
by Hell-night.
Once the preliminary fun is over, the Sophomore settled back
and notices change. To be sure, some familiar faces have not re-
turned and this makes an uneasy shiver run up his back. College,
during Sophomore year, begins to assume a matter-of-fact air:
jobs to earn room or board, responsible positions in fraternities, a
few vie parties as an intermezzo in studies, week-end trips home to
search for summer jobs, worries over Pat's, conferences with the
dean. . .Back home and on campus he is now more than a "lowly
neophyte."
School is not as simple as before. If the Sophomore does not
know what he has wanted to study, he at any rate, has begun to
think about it seriously. The fun and laughter which have char-
acterized his freshman year are now tinged with the solemnity of
increasing manhood. With June, he has abandoned his careless
frivolity — he is becoming mature.

FRESHMAN
The Class of 1943 needed no hurricane to mark their arrival at
Massachusetts State College. With true Freshman enthusiasm, they
fell to the task of accommodating themselves to the campus and
their spirit persevered successfully through all the trials and tribu-
lations imposed upon them by the lordly Sophs. On the other
hand, it was all "take "with the Freshmen. Just ask any '43-er how
the tables were not only overturned but also dumped upon their
traditional masters at the rope pull and razoo night.
Good fortune seemed to follow in the train of this freshman class.
Even the mean old New England climate assumed its best be-
havior when they appeared on campus. Mountain Day, which had
been postponed as a result of the hurricane the year before, was
sunny and diverting. The heavens obligingly released a snow-storm
for the Winter Carnival, an exciting and eventful week-end which
awed and pleased these future Statesmen. Then, too, work was
actually started on the long-promised dormitories.
The Freshman's life is a life of vivid change. Change from curi-
osity and surprise to laughing resignation and fun; change from
troublesome quizzes and hour-exams to fear-inspiring finals;
change from the naivete of the neophyte to the super-elegance of
the budding sophomore. The Class of 1943 came through these
changes with flying colors. They toUed and played; studied and
worried — and enjoyed their first year of college life.

SPECIAL EVENTS
The social season at State College begins two days after Opening
Convocation with an informal dance in the "Old Grey Barn," and
ends only with the Soph-Senior Hop after Commencement in June.
From the date of that first informal until June, there is no lessening
of organized campus recreation. The programs of the Social Union,
Mountain Day, and Dad's Day are a part of that college social
life; but at State, as inevitably at any co-educational college,
dances are the major part of social life. During the early weeks
when fraternities are rushing freshmen, vie parties are held with
much greater frequency. Rushing is hardly over when Amherst
week-end brings the round-robin of formal and semi-formal fra-
ternity house parties with their six-piece bands.
After time out for Dad's Day and sorority rushing, campus
caperings begin again at Informals. Ranging from barn dances and
old clothes "brawls" to "victory" dances, they fill the week-ends
between formals and house parties. For fifty cents a couple, the
informals attract a large hallful of students, who thus have a means
to dance the old-fashioned fox trot or contort themselves in ultra-
so-so jive. In December comes the first formal dance, the Military
Ball. Outstanding feature of the social life of the campus is the
Winter Carnival Ball during Winter Carnival in February. Inter-
fraternity and Inter-sorority Balls in the spring, and the Soph-
Senior Hop in June climax the series of formal dances.

Dads Day
"My Heart Belongs to Daddy"
burst across the football field from the
band at the twelfth annual Dads' Day
this fall. Under the direction of co-
chairmen Jean Davis and George At-
water the Dads' Day Committee of
1939 arranged a program that showed
visiting parents varied phases of col-
lege life. In the morning the dads were
lead from class to class by members
of the Maroon Key. Later that morn-
ing the R.O.T.C. put on an exhibition
of riding.
In the afternoon under a sky ideal
for football games, Massachusetts
State played Rensselaer Polytechnic
Institute to a 7-7 tie. After the game
the dads were taken to fraternities,
sororities, or Draper Hall for supper. In
Bowker that evening five fraternities
presented skits previously chosen in
competition for their entertainment
and artistic value. The W.S.G.A., the
orchestra, the quartet, and the trio
also contributed to the show.

Military
Every able male student at State
College is required to join the Reserve
OfBcers' Training Corps and take mili-
tary training during his freshman and
sophomore years. As freshmen the
students, as soon as the novelty of
wearing a uniform wears off, complain
loudly about being required to get up
early three times a week and get into
high boots and a wool-khaki uniform.
They complain about having to march
and learn gun drill, but secretly, more
than one young soldier gets a thrill out
of weekly regimental parade when the
band plays and banners wave. As
sophomores, they are all glad of the
opportunity to learn horse-back riding
and, if they talk scornfully about
stupid army horses, it is merely to let
their classmates know what excellent
horsemen they are. When the spring of
their sophomore year comes, nearly all
the men, attracted by the thoughts of
an officer's uniform or the thrill of
hard riding, want to take advanced
military.
The best part of a Military Major's life is the
summer at Fort Ethan Allen. The pictures at
the left were taken by Cadet Frank Daley on
the long pleasant ride through central Vermont.

ActiKilly, Iidwcxer, the ihiiiiIxt of

limited to aliout twenty-five in each
class. Military majors, as the advance
students arc called, ride and practice
mounted drill an hour a day in the fall
and again in the spring. In the winter
they give one class hour a day to the
study of military tactics, military
organization, military history, and
allied subjects.
The high spot of military life at
State College is the six weeks mounted
trip to Fort Ethan Allen each summer
for cadets between their Junior and
Senior years. The troop of twenty-five
students soldiers, commanded by a
United States x\rmy officer, leaves
campus the day after commencement
for the Fort. Filled with six full hours
of hard riding, ten days travel brings
the outfit, tanned, bearded, and dusty
to Fort Ethan Allen on the Canadian
Border. Camp life begins at five-thirty
in the morning and does not end until
early evening. The tired cadets roll
out of their bunks at five-thirty for
camp duty. At seven they head for the

until eleven are they able to return to

grooming and watering their horses,
and attending inspections, the men are
free at five o'clock — unless of course it
is their turn to go on weekly kitchen

Military majors exert their influence
( )n campus social life too. Their autumn
horse-show and review is a major part
(if the Dads' Day performance. In the
spring at commencement, they sponsor
tiie annual horse show, featuring
jumping contests. Their major con-
tribution to campus social life, aside
from their mere presence in parade
uniform, is the annual Military Ball.
This year's committee of military
majors, chairmanshipped by George
Pitts, brought Gene Dennis' band to
campus. In a colorful ceremony at
intermission, Erma Alvord was chosen
honorary colonel.

Amherst takes the annual game . . . but not the goal posts
State's traditional tussle with Am-
herst College resulted last fall in an-
other football defeat but boasted of a
gay weekend. It began on Friday
night with a huge bonfire and cheers
and enthusiasm fortunately not ac-
companied by brawls with Amherst
students.
The game on Saturday afternoon
was played on the State Campus, but
even that supposed advantage was to
little avail — Amherst won by a wide
margin.
The other activities of the weekend
Amherst Weekend
were quite unaffected, however, by
this partial failure. On Saturday night
a Round Robin of fraternity dances
was held. Each of the fraternities was
decorated for the affair — most often in
fall fashion with cornstalks. For the
remainder of the evening, each House
held a closed dance. It was estimated
that 312 guests — alumni and imports —
came to State for Amherst Weekend.

WINTER CARNIVAL
Jitterbugs and stolid penguins made
out of snow — Sunday-best imports
trying to feel at home — new evening
gowns for one glorious evening — in
fact, the Winter Carnival at Massa-
chusetts State College. The carnival
has been the heyday of the campus
social season since weekending came
into vogue, and this year's was perhaps
the most unusual and successful in a
long time.
In the first place, snow came — not
from force of habit, but undoubtedly
from the gods after days of despairing-
ly warm weather. So many things de-
pended on its coming, that with it the
campus was in a hasty hubbub. Snow

competition went up in a day, and the
skiing program at Bull Hill became
somewhat surer of itself.
The Carnival ofEcially began on
Friday afternoon with cross-country
skiing competing for attention with
the imports arriving on campus. The
guests were asked to register upon ar-
rival and received booklets giving the
complete program of carnival events.
It is significant, however, that the co-
eds were by no means neglected this
year. In fact, they were in the ma-
jority on the ball list.
The Carnival Ball was held on Fri-
day night, and with it came a full-
fledged miracle — it was held in the
cage! After years of fuming over
campus glamour wasted in the ancient
Drill Hall, the Cage was finally gotten
— and with only the minor disad-
vantage of its being rather chilly. An-

dance. The orchestra was Benny Car-
ter's— of Savoy fame — and for the
first time in campus history a past
carnival queen was rechosen — Ann
Cooney, queen of both the 1939 and
1940 balls.
On Saturday morning those who
could bestir themselves sufficiently to
walk about a half-mile through snow,
went up to Bull Hill for the ski-meet.
Dotty Graves, a women's amateur
ski jump champion gave an exhibition,
but campus skiers also did well in the
downhill, slalom, and jumping compe-
titions. In the afternoon, there was
fun tobogganing on Clark Hill, as well
as basketball, boxing, and wrestling in
the Cage for those who cared to watch.
Saturday evening's activities were
less grandiose but more varied than
those of Friday evening. As a begin-
ning, the ice pageant was held on the
college pond to crown the queen of the
Carnival, and to announce the de-
cision of the judges on the fraternity

snow sculpture. Tliota Clii took first
place with its jitterbugs. Then, as a
Social Union program, Carl Sandburg
came to speak and to read his poetry.
He read chiefly from Yes, the People,
and also sang a few ballads from his
American Song Bag, accompanying
himself — homespun fashion — with a
guitar.
Later in the evening fraternity row
was flocked with people comparing the
various snow sculptures, and matching
their opinions with those of the ofiicial
judges. The fraternities meanwhile
went their own merry way, and held
open house and round robin dancing
until midnight — the official close of
the Winter Carnival.
During the anti-climactic days that
followed, the only evidences of this
most important social affair was the
few last import departures, an excess
of the longed-for snow, and the gradual
deterioration of the snow sculpture.
And thus, another Winter Carnival
weekend was past.
Evening scenes (to the right) show the climax of
the weekend with (first) Carl Sandburg's pro-

Interfraternity Ball Intersorority Ball
Early in May the Greeks throw
aside all rivalry and get together for
the Interfraternity Ball. White flan-
nels and white coats come out in
force, for the Greek Ball is the first
ofiicial affair of spring.
Each house chooses the prettiest
coed date as the fraternity sweetheart
and at the Ball the most beautiful is
chosen as Interfraternity Sweetheart.
The following night is devoted to a
round robin and private house dances.
The Intersorority Ball, held in
April, is the big affair of the year for
the coeds. Since it is the custom for
the coeds to invite the man of their
choice, the Ball was peculiarly ap-
propriate, this year being Leap Year.
Smooth music, colored lights, femin-
ine decorations, young hearts, and
spring in the air — trite, perhaps but
the sorors' Ball was hailed as one of
the most festive occasions of State's
socialites.

Hop
The Soph-Senior Hop, as the last
dance for the senior class, is usually at-
tended with an undercurrent of weepy
farewells. And yet it is usually made
one of the most spontaneous formal
dances of the year. The 1939 Hop was
held in the Drill Hall on an especially
hot night. Between the hall and Good-
ell Library, however, there were chairs
set out on the lawn, where the couples
could relax between dances.
As usual, an exceptionally lively
swing band was chosen — perhaps to
offset the tinge of sad finality that ac-
companies these dances. lii 1938, it
was Artie Shaw, and last year Don
Redman.

attempt to hide the archaic beams of
the Drill Hall, the entire ceiling was
festooned with streamers, while the
orchestra sat in front of painted Jap-
anese screens — strangely reminiscent
of the Mikado.
At about three o'clock — just as the
dancers were beginning to walk across
the campus — the traditional chimes

FRATERNITIES
Many a highlight of the college year results from fraternity
activities. Bull-sessions that leave a mellow after-glow when col-
lege years have passed, take place within fraternity walls. The
fraternity is the natural culmination of friendship, and to every
student his "house" lends a warmth to college life which might
otherwise be lacking. It is no wonder, then, that more than sixty
percent of the men belong to State College's eleven fraternities.
For fostering a spirit of natural competition and at the same time
making a healthy bond among all fraternities, the Interfraternity
Council must take a bow. During the entire school-year it plans
and considers interfraternity activities of all kinds. The inter-
fraternity ball, the interfraternity sing and the interfraternity
declamation, all sponsored by the council, represent the crowning-
point of campus extra-curricular life to fraternity members. More
tangible evidence of fraternity competition and cooperation are the
interfiaternity skits, the snow sculpture competition, and the
house inspection scores. Healthy and clean-cut competitive spirit
characterize interfraternity sports which include seasonal ath-
letics such as soccer, basketball, and baseball. To the Interfra-
ternity Council belongs the task of initiating and coordinating the
extensive and varied fraternity activities.
Broad-mindedness and good fellowship are qualities which the
Interfraternity Council has fostered. Both the school and the
students receive benefit from the council's work. Earning the heart-
felt appreciation of the student body, the Interfraternity Council
has in the past year been an active factor in the molding of student
character.

SORORITIES
From the five sororities at Massachusetts State College emanates
feminine influence which pervades campus life. To nearly all upper-
class coeds, the sorority is a second home — a social center and a
place for study.
Their influence over college life belies the youth of State College
sororities. Three of the present sororities — Lambda Delta Mu, Phi
Zeta, and Alpha Lambda Mu — were formed in 1931. Sigma Beta
Chi was established in 1932, and Sigma Iota in 1934.
The position which sororities have attained on campus is largely
due to the work of the Intersorority Council. The Council does a
commendable job in regulating all intersorority competition, and
in planning for such events as the annual round-robin Patroness'
Tea and the Intersorority Ball. It establishes the rules by which
sororities must abide while rushing freshmen women. Each year
it oft'ers two plaques: one to the winner of the annual Intersorority
Sing and Declamation Contest, the other to the sorority which
maintains the highest scholastic average. The council likewise
directs a combined sorority skit presented annually on Dads' Day.
Finally, all Social L'nion events have as hostesses tlie members of
one of the sororities for each of the presentation throughout the
school year.
The sororities at State, under the direction and supervision of
their own intersorority council, have brought to the coeds all the
advantages of lively, helpful "houses."

ACTIVITIES
In this section devoted to academic activities are descriptions of
more than a score of student organizations. All of these non-athletic
non-scholastic activities affect the campus life of every student in
some way. Probably half of the upperclass students of the college
participate in at least one academic activity, and some devote
more time to academic activity than they do to studies. Including
as they do, such widely different organizations as musical groups,
publications staffs, dance committees, class officers, and student
governing groups, dramatic and oratorical associations, and in
addition another score of campus religious, scholastic, and recrea-
tional clubs, academic activities constitute a major feature of col-
lege life at State.
The task of exercising general supervision over all the academic
activities lies with the Academic Activities Board, which consists
of two faculty appointees, two alumni appointees, a general man-
ager, the President of the College, and the managers of each student
organization. Although the Board has authority to exercise general
supervision over Academic Activities, in actual practice, the various
academic groups function independently. The main work of the
Board is to recognize outstanding academic work by granting
silver, gold, and diamond-chip medallions to students who have
participated successfully. Furthermore the Board awards a Con-
spicuous Service Cup for outstanding service on the part of a
senior; and gives a fifty dollar prize to a manager.

ADELPHIA
One of the most coveted honors of State College life comes to a
junior when he is "tapped" by seniors of the Adelphia society.
Outstanding as leaders in campus activities, the Adelphia members
are composed of seven senior men elected by their predecessors. In
addition, several men are recognized by initiation into Adelphia
at the end of thnir senior year. Admission to this honorary society
is based on the record of the first three years. "Promotion of good
fellowship and the fostering of the highest ideals at Massachusetts
State College" has been the aim of Adelphia since its inception.
The society directs rallies before State's most important football
games. Beginning the season with a huge torchlight parade, the
rallies present varied programs . . .A bonfire. . . Prof essois' Speeches
. . .The one and only Dean Burns. . .Coaches. . .Gridiron stars. . .
Fireworks. . .State songs . State cheers. . .Band music.
It also directs certain student activities essential to a well-
rounded college life, but for which no other organization or support
exists. Before Thanksgiving, it conducts a campus-wide drive for
Red Cross contributions. Fraternities, sororities, and the four
classes are contacted either directly or at Convocation.
The average student is unaware of the significance of Adelphia.
He admires the insignia and the maroon coats, but it is usually not
until his second oj third year that he even knows a member of the
society. The real purpose of the society is to honor those students
who have made worth-while contributions to student life during
their first three years of college. Inevitably some men are picked
because they are good fellows or have made fine athletic records,
but Adelphia more than any other society on campus recognizes the
men who have turned in capable performances in extra-curricular
activity, but because of their quiet manner have failed to win
campus fame.

Wlicnever a \isilinf;' tfaiii arrives on campus in its l)iis, it re-
ceives the welcome of State College's official "hosts," the ten soph-
omore members of the Maroon Key. In recent years athletic teams
from other colleges have been impressed with the spirit in the Key
society; so impressed, in fact, that several colleges considered
founding Key societies. At present there are chapters of the Key
society in many of the leading colleges in the United States. Each
chapter takes its name from the colors of the college at which it is
located.
Each freshman is rather rudely acquainted with the Maroon
Key at the Abbey serenade a week or so after registration. Cause
for friction is added to the natural soph-frosh rivalry by the activi-
ties of the Maroon Key; for it is the duty of Key members to en-
force the "serenade" week — theirs is the duty of swinging paddles.
It is all for the good of the freshmen, they say, for the maroon-
topped neophytes also learn college songs and cheers at the "dawn
serenade."
In the spring of the year the freshmen elect ten classmates to the
Maroon Key Society for the coming year. The ten are chosen from
a list of eighteen candidates, in turn selected by the Senate from
thirty-two nominees proposed by fraternity and non-fraternity
men. Election to the Maroon Key is often the start of a college
career of extra-curricular activity.
Like Adelphia, the Maroon Key is perhaps more an honorary
society than an active campus group. It adds atmosphere to the
campus, especially during the first few weeks of the fall, to have a
sprinkling of Maroon Key hats at student gatherings. And it
gives the honored men something to remember all their lives. . .
and all through college, a hat to wear on rainy days.

SENATE
The welfare of the student body is the concern of the Senate, the
student governing body composed of juniors and seniors. Rebel-
lious frosh who have been tossed into the College Pond for not
wearing their caps, perhaps do not agree that the Senate has pro-
moted their welfare. They heartily disapprove of the clause in the
constitution authorizing the Senate "to take disciplinary measures
with reactionary freshmen."
On the whole, though, matters under the control of the Senate
deal with more serious student affairs. The Senate this year re-
vised class election rules to prevent campus politics, which in previ-
ous years appeared to be degrading the esprit de corps of the major-
ity of students. It, moreover, made routine appointments to stu-
dent committees and sent delegates to two college conventions.
It decreed that cheer leaders should be selected by competition
and that girls be allowed to compete.
The outstanding action taken by the Senate this year was the
appointment of a preliminary committee to consider the possi-
bility of a High School Student Leader Day at Massachusetts
State College. The work of this committee may have far-reaching
results in bringing outstanding students to State. The committee
plans to send invitations to high school students who meet the
scholastic requirements for State and are proficient in such extra-
curricular activities as athletics, music, dramatics, or school publi-
cations. They will be given a glance at State College life — a basket-
ball game, moving pictures of the college, and perhaps a banquet.
The committee earned its own funds for the initiation of sub-fresh-
men day by staging a variety show on campus.
At times, students accused it of being a stagnant club of campus
"big-shots." However, few students would wish to abolish the
Senate; for even students like their "big shots" and many have their
own secret aspirations.

Coeds who leave the straight and narrow path and sow wild oats
while undergraduates of State College are guided aright through
the assistance of the W.S.G.A. Regular semester meetings or
special meetings called by the president of the W.S.G.A. take up
cases of coed transgressors and enforcement of rules. Strictest rules
are ordained for freshmen coeds, but all women students enrolled
in the four-year course become automatically subject to super-
vision by the dreaded and ridiculed "old women," as they are
popularly known on campus.
Like the Senate in some respects this women's governing body
sees to it that freshman berets be worn until October 12th of the
first semester. Initiation, too, in all its glory blooms forth in the
hands of the sophomore women who issue certain additional rules
approved by the W.S.G.A. Council. Sophomores themselves en-
force the rules which provide for as picturesque a week as the
milder old-fashioned "Hell Week" of the men students.
Even the topic of dating is subjected to the supervision of the
council. Freshmen coeds, for example, find themselves restricted
to two dates a week until Christmas in order that they may
spend more time on "grinding." Rules like these have given the
W.S.G.A. an aura of despotism and have made them the butts of
good-natured joshing, though their purpose as stated in the con-
stitution is "to make each member gain a feeling of responsibility
and a conception of citizenship."
From the time coeds begin wearing their white berets on entering
State College to their last year as seniors they find their college life
intimately tied up with the Women's Student Governing Associa-
tion. The very existence of this governing body illustrates the
principle of democracy permeating State College and proving the
capability of students to control and lead their curricular or social
activities.

HONOR
COUNCIL
EXAMINATION BC
Dean Lanphear has given us one of the strongest arguments for
retaining the Honor System. Speaking of State College he says,
"This is an ideal environment. If there can be no honor in a selected
group, what hope is there for the world at large .^ If the Honor Sys-
tem cannot work here, I cannot see what hope there is for society.
But, in a last analysis and from personal experience, I am positive
that students here are honest and should try their hardest to main-
tain the system, for it alone can prepare them for life."
The Honor System was introduced at State College as a result of
a series of talks on college life given by Dean Lewis in 1921. After
a long period of research, a constitution was ratified establishing
the Honor Council. The Council acts as a court for trying cases of
alleged dishonor, and its power of conviction includes power to
expel an offender from college. The broadest purpose of the council
is to uphold and interpret the Honor Constitution.
In 1934 a clarification of purpose was made and the student body
voted amendments to the constitution. At a forum held in 1939
faculty and student opinion showed itself to be overwhelmingly in
support of the system, despite agitation and a campaign by the
Collegian for sweeping revisions of the system. The most significant
result of the forum was an amendment to the constitution calling
for the election of a faculty advisor. Dr. Goldberg, who has had
years of acquaintance with the system, was elected. Despite this
change, it can still be said that the Honor System belongs to stu-
dents without faculty or administration interference. The majority
of students accept the system as adequately successful and a vast
improvement over the proctor system which it replaced.

On the State campus last year the Student Religious Council
hegau a new seven-college Interfaith Conference. Timely and
thought-provoking, the conference in 1940 took as its topic the
subject, "Religion and Democracy." The initiation of the yearly
conferences indicates the vigor with which the Religious Council is
pursuing its general aim. Composed of representatives of the three
religious denominations on campus, the council seeks to encourage
religious activity and to achieve a unity of religious spirit in the
entire college.
The major activity of the council in furtherance of its aim is
sponsorship of Sunday Vesper services. "This vesper service," said
one student speaker, "with the representatives of the three religious
groups on campus speaking side by side from the same platform, is
symbolic of the cooperative spirit which translates into effective
form the best in our respective religions." Tolerance, marriage, the
Bible in relation to our modern living, college life and current af-
fairs are discussed in the Sunday vesper talks of nationally-known
Christian and Jewish speakers.
Students, it is conceded by the college administration, are
likely to sacrifice their spiritual development to the constant pres-
sure of studies and the great variety of social and extra-curricular
activities. The college recognizes the need for a council and its
work in bringing vital social and religious questions to students of
all faiths. The council in no way conflicts with, but rather supple-
ments, other student religious clubs.
At State College, religious activity in this age of religious indif-
ference, though not influencing the entire student body, still is well
above average in comparison to other colleges. Through good
speakers and a wider program. Rev. David A. Sharp, director of
religious education, hopes to arouse an even greater interest among
State students.

INDEX
The work of producing the Index
promptly in May is an all-day, all-night,
all-year task. It is a diiEcult but absorbing
process of arranging boards, organizing
the dummy (the future yearbook in out-
line form); and then settling down to
months of assignments, typing, and dead-
lines. Electing their own heads, making
suggestions, worrying, working together,
the thirty members of the three upper
classes take pride in the completed Index.
The Index is not merely a compilation
of dry facts; it is intended as a lasting
picture of the State campus. State stu-
dents, and State activities. Though prim-
arily for the seniors to thumb over in
later years, it is also of value to the under-
graduates as an easy means of contact
with the activities of the college.
From recent editions of the Index the
value of informal photography has be-
come increasingly obvious. Consequently,
the 1940 Index board has used informal
"shots" in picturing everyone from hazed
freshmen to relaxed professors. In ap-
pearance alone, consequently, the Index
makes a more attractive book and funda-
mentally carries out the purpose of the
1940 board — that is, to take the student

Since perhaps the first small land-
grantish Index, the editors have taken
pains with the artistic motif of the book,
for such can assure or prevent, to a large
degree, the success of the book. In this
year's edition the Old Chapel Chime is
consistent from cover to cover.
For the sake of simplicity and effective
organization, all work is divided among
individual boards, whose type of work is
evident from their titles — Literary, Sta-
tistics, Art, Athletics, Business, and Pho-
tography. Seniors may weary of informal
shots; the Collegian may wonder about
the date of publication ; and students may
notice the smoke and noise of the Index
office in the "Mem" Building, but the
Index progresses steadily. The members
with their steady assignments and all-too-
strict dead-lines, are not likely to forget
its existence.
Yet the yearbook staff does not seek
glory or constant, loud recognition of its
labors. It is sufficient if, after the distribu-
tion of the 1940 Index this May, the
college gives an honest evaluation and
approval to the brain-child of thirty
weary board members.

Collegian editorials in the past year have aroused
wide-spread comment — favorable and unfavor-
able; but the editorial aim, that of making stu-
dents read and think, has been realized. Keyword
of editorial policy is Service: editorials, instead of
philosophizing or discussing international politics,
concern themselves primarily with State College,
Collegian editorial campaigns have been responsi-
ble to a large degree for the change of the col-
lege's name and for the recently-granted right to
give an A.B. degree. This year consideration of
the need for "Massachusetts State University"
and the "Honor System" have dominated the
subject matter of editorials.
A "live" make-up and "live" news coverage
have made the Collegian the top-ranking weekly
collegiate newspaper of all New England. With
such a record the board is proud not only of the
results of its editorials but also of its other sections.
Humor, administration notes, co-ed activities,
"swing," classic music, and opinions of other col-
leges— these, in the six regular columns provide
reading that appeals to most preferences. Newest
of Collegian features is Joe Bart's column, "Our
Colleagues," analyzing subjects of universal inter-
est in the collegiate world.

ing house in Amherst — Carpenter and Morehouse.

technical points until one or two in the morning.
For students seriously considering a career of
journalism, the experience thus obtained in the
technical details of editing and publishing is in-
valuable. State College alumni, who received their
first training on the Colleyicni board, are found on
the staffs of daily newspapers all over the
United States.
The work of the business board is as little under-
stood by the student body as the work of any
other undergraduate activity. Trekking "down to
town" for advertisements or doing bookkeeping
work on contract advertisers, the business board
is noted for its efficiency and reliability. Through-
out the year, over thirty issues of the Collegian,
or a total of about forty thousand copies have
been distributed weekly to the entire vmdergradu-
ate body and mailed to hundreds of subscribers.
Typical of all colleges is the student attitude
toward the Collegian. The editor has yet to hear
praise for any issue; yet let typographical errors
appear and the mail brings a batch of deprecating
letters. Then, inevitably, students complain that
the humorous columnist is never humorous. Again,
the physical and biological departments complain
that liberal arts stories dominate the newspaper;
and liberal arts professors write diatribes of com-
plaint because a report of a professor at a Jink-
town concention had not been printed. In spite of
the apparent inappreciation, however, the Col-
legian by its consistent high qviality has justly
earned its "First Class Honor Rating" by the
Associated Collegiate Press.

COLLEGIAN
QUARTERLY
For students and faculty members who write, the college organ
of expression has been the ever-evolving Collegian Quarterly. Pub-
lished seasonally, the literary magazine has at last reached a new
maturity and won the approval of its student readers. Criticism of
past issues in terms of "Morbidness" and "Dryness" has turned
into optimism with a new format.
The history of the Quarterlij reveals a progress exceeding most of
the originator's dreams. In the spring of 1937, Kenwood Ross, then
business manager of the Collegian, made a year and a half of re-
search, writing to sixty colleges, and afterward made possible the
first issue as a subsidized two-page supplement of the Collegian. In
the course of years the magazine grew from a two-page, to a four-
page, to an eight-page supplement, and finally to the magazine
form.
It is a commonly accepted fact that the success has been due
greatly to the Quarterly editors and chiefly to the students them-
selves. In a college the size of State, budding composers are certain
to appear; at State in particular, writers have, relatively speaking,
been more than bountiful.
"To publish under student editorship, undergraduate, faculty,
and alumni creative work four times a year," was announced as the
basic policy at the start. Elaboration of this policy resulted in an
improving Quarterly. Urged by the expansion of the college, the
editors will be able to print fiction, articles, and poetry of the high-
est standards.
"This is the story of the Quarterly," say the present editors,
"but it is only the beginning. Each succeeding issue draws more
and more manuscripts. The torch is yet to be carried on to the
heights of Olympus. So far the Muses have smiled on us, and we
are sure they will continue until the Quarterly is recognized as
more than 'a college magazine'."

Before he even sets foot on campus, every State freshman re-
ceives his copy of the Freshman Handbook. The first week at college
finds freshmen carrying that "Bible" daily from the hour of their
first class until bedtime, gradually absorbing bits of information
from the compact compilation of State College traditions, songs,
cheers, and activities. Every new student discovers that his little
maroon covered "Bible" is indispensable and indeed, it is a minia-
ture course in college orientation.
The Freshman Handbook board is chosen in the latter part of the
year from the Sophomore class. Using most of their second semester
and part of their summer vacation, the editors publish their version
of the handbook, and have it ready for mailing to all members of
the incoming class before September.
Adjustment to a new routine of study and life is a problem which
must be solved early in the freshman year. This adjustment the
handbook hopes to assist by its sections on student government,
religious and academic activities, customs, social activities, ath-
letic activities, and Who's Who at Massachusetts State College.
Entering college is not like buying a third class ticket to Utopia
nor does college resemble more than slightly the modern screen
versions of collegiate life, say the handbook editors. College is
"fun" but freshmen meet many problems. The handbook hopes to
help them to realize, in the midst of the first week's confusion,
that college is not all play and no work.
Though insignificant in size, though ridiculed by all three upper
classes, the handbook sets the incoming frosh on the right foot and
provides an introduction to four years of life at his chosen Alma
Mater. It expresses the hopes of faculty and older students that
the new-comers may easily establish a place upon the State College
campus.

"What our band needs is a little 'oomph'!!!"
said a fair coed after the State College band's first
gridiron appearance. And that word best de-
scribed the change which took place in the per-
formance at the remainder of the season's games.
At the first game, while maroon and white
rooters watched half-heartedly during the half, a
brightly-clad band marched onto the field. After
a whistle blast, a lengthy series of marching and
backing produced a recognizable "M." Came the
Amherst game, however, and the band began to
swing out in a jaunty fashion never before seen at
a State football contest. Forming J-E-F-F and
S-T-A-T-E, as if by magic before the peal of the
whistle had died away, the band added to the
increasing perfection exhibited during the last six
years.
In 1933, an entire reorganization resulted in the
birth of the present band. Each year, new progress
has been made. Most noticeable forward step was
the purchase of the professional-looking uniforms
worn by the band. Next came new instruments to
improve the quality of tone. And this year the
band scored a real hit with the students by adding
new zest in its marching formations. Credit for
this increased enthusiasm can definitely be traced
to Student Manager Douglas Cowling. Without
the faculty assistance tendered to the other musi-
cal organizations, he has performed a professional
job of disciplining and planning. In the actual
1
208
HUNDRED AND FORTY
^
marching formations, he was ably aided by Assist-
ant Manager Eldridge and Drum Major Eskin.
Band Master Farnum also deserves praise for
the excellent concert standard set this year by the
band. Each year Mr. Farnum starts with a band
in which there is only a small nucleus of experi-
enced members; for freshmen predominate in band
membership. It is his job to knit this group of
raw musicians into a unit which will render some
of the truly inspired pieces which are given every
year. This year's several concerts, both on and off
campus, featured solos by Frank Smith, trumpeter
and Samuel Shaw on the piccolo.
The fall season was more complete than in the
past few years, with exhibitions at five home con-
tests and two away from home games. When
State won the football game with Worcester Poly-
tech, the band added to the occasion, but was not
at its best. However, at the Coast Guard game in
New London, the performance of the band, de-
spite the handicaps of extreme cold and the poor
lighting of a night game, was excellent.
In the past, uniforms, instruments, and in-
struction have produced a fine looking, fine play-
ing organization. This year, strong leadership and
perseverance in drill have made a snappy march-
ing group. An essential part in the color of college
sports and college life, the band has made an amaz-
ing number of improvements. The State College
Band has finally captured that elusive and magic
quality called "OOMPH."

MASSACHUSETTS STATE COLLEGE INDEX
ORCHESTRA
Since the opening concert of the year, the college orchestra has
retained a place of leadership among campus activities. It has been
customary in the past for the orchestra to begin its activities in the
fall with the rest of the college. This year, however, the orchestra
took a leap or two forward and began in the summer to write to
incoming freshmen about the organization, inviting them to join.
To the average student, however, the orchestra's season opened on
November 16 at student convocation. It played at the Bay State
Revue and the Dads' Day Show. It also took an active part at the
birth of a new college musical event, the first annual Christmas
concert. This year, just as at last year's performance of the "Mika-
do," the orchestra provided accompaniment for "The Gondoliers,"
the Gilbert and Sullivan operetta presented this spring.
Further evidence of its wide-awake attitude during the past musi-
cal year was shown when it made a set of recordings by means of the
new equipment of the college. These recordings will not only be
heard over the radio station in the Tower Room but will also be
broadcast through other radio stations in Massachusetts.
Having rounded off a year's work with appearances in the second
annual Music Week program in May and at graduation exercises
in June, the orchestra is grateful to its well-known director, Doric
Alviani, and regards its rise to recognition with pride. It has not
only completed a second successful year, but has also doubled and
tripled its size within a few years. One of the busiest musical organ-
izations on campus, the State College orchestra has supplemented
various student activities and has set a record in its history. With
Progress for a keynote, it has gained a reputation for accomplished
performances and its members are recognized as a polished instru-
mental group, contributing to State's increasing musical tradition.

It is the beginning of the five o'clock vesper service on Sunday
afternoon. The voices of the choir blend, fugiially at times, singing
the opening hymn. Then, as the audience Hstens in deep silence, the
voices descend to pianissimo and die away. Later the audience
joins the choir members in a few songs, and the services end with
another hymn by the choir alone. In this capacity at vespers, the
choir performs an important duty throughout the school year.
The new charm which is thus added to the vesper services fully
explains the rapid growth and importance of the choir as a musical
group at State college. The group, under the direction of Doric
Alviani, consists of approximately thirty-five men and women
undergraduates, and attracts even more candidates. In fact, be-
cause of the large number of interested students, the possibility of
a freshman choir has been seriously considered.
A recent innovation, color, has given the choir visual, as well as
vocal, appeal. Maroon robes, instead of the customary black ones,
add a certain originality to the weekly program.
The activities of the choir also bring it into contact with other
musical groups. For example, one of the outstanding series of con-
certs occurred during the Christmas season. At the Christmas
vespers, the program of traditional carols also included singing by
the men's and women's glee clubs. During the following week, the
choir and musical clubs joined with the orchestra in a recital at
Stockbridge Hall, and a few days later sang at the Belchertown
State Hospital. Thus ended the Christmas schedule, one of the out-
standing events in the yearly activities of the college choir.

MEN'S
GLEE CLUB
The members of the Men's Glee Club are now quite accustomed
to donning formal dress and leaving the campus to give an outside
concert. For, throughout the year, besides their campus activities,
the club makes many appearances at colleges and churches in sur-
rounding cities. Such apparently pleasant work, however, is not
done without careful preparation. Weeks of rehearsal under the
direction of Doric Alviani are spent before the club presents itself
as a musical group, said to be equal in rank with the Vassar and
Princeton Glee Clubs.
During the past year the club has appeared not only in college
concerts, convocations, and Social Unions, but also in the Gilbert
and Sullivan operetta "The Gondoliers" — the sixth Gilbert and
Sullivan work presented at State College. The selections this year
have been as varied as the occasions themselves. They have also
become more elaborate, featuring difficult arrangements by David-
son, conductor and arranger for the Harvard Glee Club, as well as
some by Deems Taylor. Sea chanties and American folk medleys
have also been included in the programs.
Expression in song is the aim of the Men's Glee Club, and in its
work it has become the testing-ground of those interested in music
on the State campus. Its advance to a place among New England's
finer glee clubs has laid a partial basis for the increased spirit of
singing on the entire campus. Responsible for the rise of the glee
club are a junior, Wilfred Hathaway, for his work as accompanist,
and the director, Doric Alviani, for the efficient organization.
Finally, the spirit of all the members contributes to the success of
the club as a nucleus of campus music. Popularity of glee clubs,
which are becoming important elements in outside professional
groups, has extended to State College where audience support has
been the most enthusiastic for decades.

The Women's Glee Club has lent a fresh variety this year to
programs featuring the combined musical clubs — in the 1940 oper-
etta "The Gondoliers," in the Social Union concert, and in the
musical observance of Christmas on campus. The club, however,
has also gained campus favor in its own right. This is evidenced in
the special appearances, radio broadcasts, and annual trips which
have recently been added to the singing schedule of the club.
During the year, several nights a week were taken up with re-
hearsals for performances. New songs, including "My Hero" from
"The Chocolate Soldier" and an old 16th century "Echo" song,
filled the Memorial Building auditorium as the coed singers prac-
ticed for important performances. Whether singing light operatic
selections or popular numbers, the Women's Glee Club has been
judged by the Collegian to be the most versatile singing group on
the State campus — for the sake of rivalry — even on a par with the
Men's Glee Club.
A few years ago, the Women's Glee Club combined with the
orchestra and the Men's Glee Club under the management of one
board. Composed of managers and assistant managers of each club,
this board plans joint concerts, and elects its own secretary, publi-
city chairman, and stage manager. Aside from its value as sound
organization, this form of cooperation has given the Women's Glee
Club, as well as the other musical groups, the benefit of singing
with an entire range of voices.
The club's activities provide not only good singing for the stu-
dents, but also a respite from academic study for both its members
and its audiences. Thus the Women's Glee Club, founded on the
initiative of the coeds themselves, has grown into a valuable ad-
junct to the other musical clubs giving to the college and to its own
members a fuller meaning through the medium of song.

STATESMEN
There are four men on campus dashing around from breakfast
time until midnight. Classes and study take only part of their day.
They belong to clubs and committees; they sing in the glee club or
choir; they are class or fraternity officers; they work for room or
board. Then, in addition to all this, they find time for quartet re-
hearsals and for eleven performances in less than a semester. The
quartet members, John Osmun, Myron Hager, Wendell Wash-
burn, and Stuart Hubbard, "Statesmen" in deed as well as name,
are the busiest men on campus, yet paradoxically enjoy them-
selves as fully as any student. "We could sing forever," they say.
Five thousand persons in this vicinity, including State College
students, heard the Statesmen's singing in the first three months
of the year. Since the September 28th convocation, the quartet
has given a total of eleven performances. In the fall it gave a novel
outdoor sing at the annual Mountain Day at Mt. Tom State Park.
Dads' Day and the Bay State Revue programs also featured the
popular quartet, which, later in the fall, traveled for concerts to
Greenfield, Amherst, Hadley, Orange, Cbicopee Falls, and Belcher-
town.
The second half of the year included appearances on other trips
and at Social Union. Continuing their frequent singing dates, the
Statesmen gained the usual audience support with their repertoire
of favorites — "Talk about Jerusalem Morning," "Who Did?", and
"Women" — done in their own striking style. The popularity of the
Statesmen, which has led to the formation of the Bay Staters, is
still on the upswing and promises to make the quartet an estab-
lished tradition at the college.

ft-
A coed slips into a classroom while a lecture is in progress. The
professor stops and halt'-sarcastically asks, "Do you think we
ought to hold up class for all tardy sophomores?" "I've been hav-
ing trio rehearsal. It's hard to rush over here from the other side of
the campus in time," the coed replies and the lecture continues.
An instance like this shows the pep and energy required of the new
coed trio. With characteristic spirit of all musical clubs and groups
on campus, the Statettes have managed to squeeze their trio work
into their average college day, and have livened campus musical
entertainment.
A few semesters ago, Doric Alviani, director of student singing,
organized, and presented to State College, a women's trio. Chris-
tened "the Statettes" by the Collegian, the trio was launched on
what is developing into a diverting and lasting part of music on
State's song-filled campus. To the three coeds, it means more than
just an opportunity for solo work. They have had, in their own
words, "an exciting time and a great deal of fun singing for all
sorts of people." Dressed in similar gowns and outlined by stage-
lights against the dark background of Bowker curtains, they make
an appealing picture when they sing at campus functions.
In the new broadcasting studio in South College the Statettes
joined the Statesmen and the other campus groups in radio pro-
grams in the second semester of the year. Now radio listeners over
all Massachusetts will be able to hear the trio's interpretation of
songs from popular hits to Strauss waltzes. Like their friendly
rivals, the Statesmen, they are helping to make Massachusetts
State College an increasingly important place on the musical map.

DOUBLE QUARTET
Unique among New England college music groups are
State's new vocal and instrumental combinations. The flute
ensemble, first heard at the Social Union, is one of the rarest
instrumental quartets.
The double quartet, which is composed of the Statesmen
plus Robert Dunn, Fred McGurl, Gabriel Auerbach, and Rob-
ert Sheldon, is not only outstanding itself, but with the Stat-
ettes forms a college Septet. The double quartet appeared at
the combined musical clubs Social Union, and the Septet in a
joint concert with Westfield Teachers' College.
Making their debut early this fall, the Bay Staters are fol-
lowing in the large footsteps of the Statesmen but are applying
a different type of tonal quality and song presentation.
Under the direction of Doric Alviani, State College music
groups are producing music of the finest calibre.

"I wouldn't for the world have given up matching wits with
fellows of my age in debates at other colleges," said a veteran senior
debater in his final season with the State College Debating Club.
Students seriously interested in the art of forensics find the debat-
ing society one of the most absorbing of extra-curricular activities,
and, at the same time, derive the value of practice in public speak-
ing.
The varsity team spent most of the winter in preparation under
the coaching of Prof. Walter E. Prince. Meanwhile, the newer
members of the team saw action in practice debates in December
and January with Amherst College and during February with
A.I.C.
"Resolved that the married woman's place is in the home," was
the question in the interclass battle of words-wit-wisdom in Febru-
ary between the freshmen and sophomores. Three prominent and
pretty coeds were judges. During March the debaters engaged in
home debates with M.I.T., and with Yeskiva College of New York
City.
The annual thousand-mile Southern trip took place at Easter
vacation. Because last year's tour to the South was so successful,
the team this spring invaded South Carolina. Questions debated on
the trip were:
"Resolved that the U.S. should follow a policy of isolation to-
ward all countries outside of the Western Hemisphere engaged in
civil or international strife."
"Resolved that legislation should be enacted to provide for con-
scription of wealth in time of war."
After the Southern trip and a short trip to Boston, a convocation
debate with the Boston University women's team concluded the
season for the debating team.

Freshmen in saddle shoes, sophomores discard-
ing their reversibles, co-eds in knee socks, seniors in
military uniform — in short, members of all four
classes mount the Old Chapel stage weekly, recite
memorized lines scene by scene, act by act, and
under the guidance of Professor Rand polish their
acting of first one and then the other of their two
annual plays. Meanwhile the stage manager con-
fers with Professor Rand on sets and lighting and
the crew goes industriously to work constructing
background. . .
These are the rehearsals of the Roister Doisters,
proceeding unobtrusively until the time for pro-
duction of the plays in January and at commence-
ment.
Grease-paint, foot-lights, and first nights at-
tract dozens of would-be Thespians. Students
with the blood of the theatre running in their
veins gain prominence in the Doisters slowly and
with much solid work. In his freshman year, a
student may compete in fall try-outs and gain a
mere supernumerary part. The following year he
may act in a bit part. Then in his junior and senior
years, if the play being produced calls for his type,
he is given a lead or co-lead part. At the night of a
performance, the climax of his student acting
career arrives. . .as the curtains part for Act One.
The activity of the Roister Doisters represents
more than an unofficial drama laboratory. Years
of State College play production have manifested

the value of Roister Doister plays as entertain-
ment and cultural soiu'ces. Outstanding inlays from
years gone by are still remembered . . . the morality
play in Grinnell Arena, Shakespeare's "As You
Like It" in the Ravine, and the 1939 Commence-
ment play, "Our Town." The student dramatic
society has tested and is continuing to test new
and interesting dramatic forms.
Remembered years after graduation is the cama-
raderie of the Roister Bolsters which is more of a
club than a cut-and-dried acting organization. In-
formality, democratic voice in the society's plans
and plays, cooperation, and friendly joshing make
rehearsal periods the most vivid experiences of
college life for the select few. And in June during
commencement, when the Doister play is finally
enacted, the annual banquet of the society is
given. To it all alumni who have once been Roister
Doisters are invited to renew olden days, to meet
classmates, and to make the acquaintance of neo-
phyte Doister members.
The society's activities are not limited to the
production of two yearly plays for the college in
Bowker Auditorium. Sometime during the year
an authority on a phase of the modern theatre
speaks to the Doisters. In addition, the entire soci-
ety goes to see an outstanding modern play in Bos-
ton or in Springfield each year. It is easy to see why
the Roister Doisters keep, year after year, the
prestige which its long record of activity has es-
tablished at State College.

ZOOLOGY CLUB
Illustrated lectures played a large
part in the Zoology club program
this year. Known as an exact and
ever-progressing science, zoology finds
a logical place on campus in a club
dedicated to the purpose of keeping
students informed on its various pha-
ses. Speakers and informal student
discussions make it an active and
purposeful organization. Club meet-

enter and the profession he expects
to concentrate in.
PRE-MED CLUB
The Pre -Med club was organized in
the spring of 1936 and its purpose is
to help and satisfy the students of
Massachu.setts State College who are
interested in making medicine their
life-work. The bi-weekly program
presents to the students the aspects
of the medical profession. Besides
talks given by competent authorities,
the club this year offered a most in-

numerous speakers in an effort to af-
ford the student a better insight into
the various aspects of the club. In
the spring of the year, a trip is usually
taken for viewing the latest landscape

MATH CLUB
The Mathematics club, under the
guiding hand of Professor Moore who
founded the club, offers both pleasure
and knowledge to the students who
are interested in mathematics. At the
meetings, talks are usually given by
one or two of the students on various
mathematical topics. These talks are
followed often by stimulating and in-
formal discussions which tend to give
the members a broader and more in-
tensive background.
ENGINEERING CLLTB
The Engineering club provides an
entertaining and valuable service to
engineering majors at State College.
Although most of the interested mem-
bers are students who are planning
on entering some phase of engineering
work, the club provides lectures to
which all are invited and entertained.
This year, the club presented a very
instructive lecture on the Amherst

phases of the dairy industry.
ANIMAL HUSBANDRY CLUB
The Animal Husbandry club is
open in its membership to both four-

4-H CLUB
Among agricultural activities on
campus, the 4-H club rates a high
place in its function of providing an
outlet in 4-H activities for students of
both the four-year and two-year
courses. With its reputation of being
one of the older clubs on campus, it
reviews all phases of 4-H aims and ac-

OUTING CLUB
The Massachusetts State College
Outing club was founded by enthusi-

and hiking suggestions. Cabins and
trails are maintained by the club
which also has charge of the guiding
on Mountain Day.
PSYCHOLOGY CLUB
The primary purpose of the Psy-
chology club is to serve the students as
an agency whereby they may hear
topics of psychological interest and
authoritative speakers on such topics.
The program of the club is planned so
as to help and interest every student
as well as to further the education of

CHRISTIAN FEDERATION
One of the most active campus
organizations is the Christian Feder-
ation, which any student may join.
Its aim is similarly catholic — to de-
velop equally the religions and mental
growth of its members. The Federa-
tion is divided into various commis-
sions; that of Dramatics, for example,
presented a series of sketches during
Lent of the past year. Other activities
of the group include speakers, sup-
pers and conferences.
MENORAH CLUB
The Menorah club gathers in its
fold every Jewish student on campus.
Its purpose is twofold: (1) to keep
alive and awaken a vital sympathy
for an enjoyment of Jewish customs
and traditions; and (2) to encourage
an understanding of the Jewish cultur-
al heritage. This platform is fulfilled
by a program of discussion groups
and both educational and social gath-
erings.
NEWMAN CLUB
The Newman club, the campus or-
ganization for the frequent meeting
of Catholic students, is affiliated with
the federation of college Catholic
clubs of America and sends delegates
to the annual conference. Its activi-
ties include monthly communion
breakfasts — with the traditional
scrambled eggs — discussion groups,
and one outstanding lecture. Our
innovation in the past year was the
giving of two informal dances.
WESLEY FOUNDATION
The Wesley Foundation gathers the
Methodist students for the purpose of
discussing religion with the social
problems of modern society. Such
weekly discussion groups meet at the
home of Dr. Adrian Lindsey. The
group's major project during the past
year was a play presented in April.
Delegates also attend near-by con-
ferences. An outstanding one attended
in February included Norman Thomas

ALUMNI
The Associate Alumni of Massachusetts State
College have served their Alma Mater for genera-
tions. One of the most active alumni groups for
land-grant colleges in this part of the country, the
Associate Alumni of State College this year have
added two necessary dormitories (a men's and a
women's) to their long record. Students, faculty,
and citizens of the state owe a debt to the far-
sightedness of the organization.
"To promote, in every proper way, the inter-
ests of the college, to foster among the graduates
a sentiment of mutual regard, and to promote and
strengthen their attachment to their Alma
Mater" has been their ideal. Gathering for fond
reminiscences at Commencement, they feel the
College's bond of fellowship. And the year round
they serve the college by the sixteen-member
Board of Directors who meet frequently with other
officers to plan and discuss the work of the Asso-
ciate Alumni.
Frank Prentice Rand's dramatic "Yesterdays,"
a narrative of the College from its birth, was
written at the behest of the alumni. Moreover,
their work extended in years past to other long-
needed additions to the campus. Alumni Field,
Memorial Hall, the Physical Education Building
were all built through their concerted efforts.
Founded in 1874, alumni have been directly
concerned in the growth of the College.

RADIO
The Tower Room Studio in South College after years of promise
and months of postponed labor was finally put into use early in
1940.
Extension service programs were the first to be relayed to WHAI,
WSPR, and WSYB. Of most student interest, however, is the
Colleqian sponsored program, presented every Monday.
The first of these programs was broadcast February 26.
The first program included a Roister Doister skit, a sports sum-
mary for the week, an interview with twice-Queen Ann Cooney,
and musical selections by the Statettes.
Francis Pray of the College News Service is in charge of the
studio and Bill Goodwin, '41, of the Collegian Staff is student
manager of the CoWe(7ia?i-sponsored program.
Alan Bell, Francis Ward, John Hayes, Bob McCartney, Gabe
Auerbach and Isadore Cohen were selected "stand-by" announcers
and have been used according to the demands of the programs.
Dick Glendon, George Langton, Nellie Wozniak, and Bob Mc-
Cartney were chosen as script writers.
In addition to the continuity scripts by the regular writers, the
five minute skits, presented by the Roister Doisters have been
written by interested students.
Having its own radio station is a distinct advantage to State
College. Several times in the past students and faculty connected
with the college have been on the air, but there has always been
the disadvantage of having to travel some distance to the broad-
casting studio. This disadvantage is minimized by the presence of a
studio in Amherst.
Another distinct advantage in having a studio on campus and
regular programs is the fact that more people will become ac-
quainted with the State College to their profit and the college's.

Twenty thousand pilots a year is the aim of the Civil Aero-
nautics Authority. State College is to supply twenty of those each
year. Twenty State students were chosen from the many appli-
cants to take the course which is being offered to college students
all over the country by the C.A.A.
In all 72 hours of ground work and 55 flying hours are presented
in this course which is open to graduate students, seniors, and
juniors. Ground school instructors are volunteers from the State
faculty. The actual flying is done at the Barnes Airport in West-
fleld.
Among the 20 chosen for the course were two girls, Nancy Luce
and Roma Levy. The men are: Ed Beaumont, Shorty Wilcox, and
Dave Tappan, graduate students; Art Howes, Dan Shepardson,
John Filios, John Powers, Chet Tiberii, Bill Foster, and Gerald
Talbot, '40; Joseph Miller, Clement Burr, Walter Miles, Harold
Forrest, Robert Tillson, Jack Haskell, and Richard Heyward, '41 ;
and Ev Barton, '42.
The ground school instructors include: Dr. Ross and Mr. Minz-
ner of the Physics Department, Mr. Lanphear, Assistant Dean,
and Professor Tague and Mr. Marston of the Engineering Depart-
ment. The committee in charge are Dr. Andersen, Dr. Ross, and
Captain Theis.
The students are required to keep individual logs of their flying
hours, together with information required by the Authority such
as the wind velocity, direction of the wind, and height of the ceiling.
Entrances in the log are made before and after the flight. Because
of nervous strain and tension the students are not permitted to fly
for more than thirty minute periods. After two hours they are al-
lowed to go up again.
The flight instructors, Dave O'Connor and Dick Kaufman,
work under the direction of Chuck O'Connor, airport manager.

ATHLETICS
Curry Hicks, in a mood of reminiscence this fall, recalled an inci-
dent many years ago when the "Aggies" played a football game
with Harvard. On its return from Cambridge, the team was met
in the center of Amherst by the entire student body and carried on
the crowd's shoulders back to the campus. It mattered not that the
team had lost; the students knew that the players had done their
best, and that was enough to arouse admiration and worship.
This, in all probability, would not happen today. Pre-game ral-
lies are rapidly losing their significance at this college: post-game
enthusiasm doesn't approach that of past years. Many feel that
the dearth of wins on some sports in recent years is the cause of this
lessening of fervor for athletic prowess on this campus. However,
the truth is that the average student today looks at games more
sensibly than his predecessors. He sees the contest as a game,
played for the joy of combat and the demonstration of physical
skill, and does not feel that any team must win at any cost if the
college is to progress.
Of course, we are not foolish enough to state that students have
little interest in the success of varsity sports. Undergraduates and
alumni alike may not demonstrate the spontaneous enthusiasm of
previous years, but they still have a very sincere desire that every
State team make a good showing. Most of them believe, though,
that this showing may be obtained without making gods of the
players and without resorting to drastic means with the coaching
staff.

FOOTBALL
The 1939 varsity football team's record
of two wins, five losses, and two ties is not
very impressive on paper. It is not the
purpose of this review to excuse that re-
cord. The poor showing may have been a
result of any one of a combination of sev-
eral factors : the opponents may have been
better trained, the State athletic set-up
may be faulty, the schedules of class and
laboratory may have interfered, or other
schools may offer better inducements for
promising high school players. A discus-
sion of such things does not belong in a
yearbook, for its function is to record the
year's events as they actually happened.
Despite the disappointing record, it is a
fact that the brand of football that State
played this fall was head and shoulders
above that of the last three or four years.
With the exception of Tufts contest, no
game was lost until the final whistle. Top-
heavy scores were not foisted week after
week on weary players and rooters. Op-
ponents did not throw in substitutes for
experience as frequently as in past seasons
and when those opponents went away,
they knew that they had been in a ball

game. Many an observer elainaed that
even in defeat, State played interesting
football — something that was rarely said
in 1937 and 1938.
One of the reasons for the improved
play of this year's team was the wealth
of material. Much attention was given
during the season to sophomore stars
such as Freitas, Evans, Bullock, Brady,
Clark, or Seery. However, the seniors on
the club were the bulwark of defense and
contributed much to the offense. In the
line were regulars like Captain Blasko,
O'Connell, Geoffrion, Lavrakas, Payson,
Malcolm, Nelson, Norwood, and Rudge
who performed yeoman service week after
week. The backfield included Barrel
Harding, Gino Santucci, and Al Irzyk.
State supporters have hopes for next year
in football; but make no mistake, these
seniors will be missed. Their weight and
experience counted for plenty when the
going was tough. The junior class also

contributed its share of stars. Probably
the most outstanding was Captain-elect
Ralph Simmons, who was picked as all
New England guard. Paul Skogsberg, Al
Prusick, Joe Larkin, and Don Allan also
would be assets to any team.
The season opened with a night game
at Springfield College that gave a mighty
lift to State rooters' hopes. The Caraway-
men gave an exhibition of fight and heads-
up football that very nearly produced a
touchdown just before the first half ended,
although the final outcome was a scoreless
tie. The above mentioned sophomores
were brilliant on the offense. Most of the
spectators quickly forgot the slow start
that State displayed, but this fault was to
plague the team through the whole season.
The first home game was a 19-14 defeat
by Bowdoin. An offside penalty, inter-
cepted pass, and several narrowly missed
touchdown heaves were the breaks against
State that gave the Polar Bears the mar-
gin of victory. The fourth quarter marked
some exciting play as the home team
frantically strove to overcome the Bow-
doin lead.
The University of Connecticut game
was a heartbreaker. Although in a daze
for the first three periods, — the States-
men opened up on a 76-yard touchdown
drive in the last quarter to give the locals
six points advantage. The freshmen were
already ringing the chapel bell of victory
when two last minute Connecticut passes
tied the score and the try for the winning
extra point was successful.
On the following Saturday, Rhode
Island proved to be another jinx for the
team. The Rams scored in the first three
minutes, but Irzyk came back in a few
minutes to knot the score. State scored
again to have Rhode Island again tie the
score. A double scoring act was put on
again, in the second half, but Keaney
kicked a 46-yard field goal to put the
game on ice for Rhode Island — 23-20.
In the first official play of the next game
Don Allan ran 65 yards behind a beautiful
blocking to give, with the extra point,
State a 7-0 win over Worcester Tech. The
Statesmen spent the rest of the afternoon
trying to prevent an Engineer score and
managed to produce only three first
downs in the whole game.
With Amherst already having lost
three games and with State fielding a
much improved team this year the Mar-
oon forces were given a fair chance in the
traditional home-town rivalry. This fact
gave State rooters a gleam of hope for a
change. But State could not overcome the
13 point advantage that the Sabrinas
garnered in the early part of the game, and

Ebb confers on a fine point . . The game goes great guns
the contest ended with a score of 13-0.
The pre-game "experts" had figured the
State passing attack to balance the Am-
herst strength on the ground, but the
home passes seemed almost invariably to
find their way to opponents' arms.
The second victory of the year was
scored at Coast Guard's expense to the
tune of 6-0. The lone touchdown came in
the last quarter after an 80-yard drive
with Bud Evans, State's sophomore hope,
going over for the score. State was wor-
ried by the Sailors' passing combination
but outplayed the Cadets through most
of the decidedly one-sided game.
Before a crowd of Dads, the club
played probably the most exciting game
of the year the following week to tie Rens-
selaer 7-7. According to Ebb, this Tech
team was the finest to face us all season.
It was well-trained and stacked with
plenty of good material. Its touchdown
came in the first few minutes of the game
and it dominated the first half. However,
the second half saw State begin to make
first downs. It wasn't until the fourth
period, though, that a long Seery to
Skogsberg pass touched off a drive that
ultimately ended in a score.
The season's record would look a lot
better without the inclusion of the Tufts
game. This 34-7 pasting was a sad affair
and not easily imderstood. The Tufts first
team seemed to score at will, and the only
time State looked good was when Evans
ran back a punt to a touchdown. State
certainly did not look like the team of the
previous week, and the explanation was,
as usual, not easily discernable.
Predicting for State teams can never
be reliable: there is always the very likely
possibility of flunks or ineligibilities, or
the interference of work and studies may
cause promising players to drop out.
However, it will do no harm to go out on
the limb and say that State will go places
next year. Graduation is taking a load of
weight from the line, but there are some
beefy boys ready to fill the gaps. Captain
Ralph Simmons has a lot of football under
his belt and should do a good job of lead-
ing his charges in the right direction.
There is plenty of spirit among the soph
and junior players, and the frosh will be
fighting to make a regular position. There
is some talk of giving the coaches a new
set-up that will give them every chance to
show their abilities. On the whole, things
look rosier for next year.

SOCCER
In remembering 1939 as the tenth an-
niversary of soccer at Massachusetts
State College soccer men realize that one
man has been responsible for the develop-
ment of the game from an informal sport
to one of the most consistently successful
games on campus. Larry Briggs has
shown his ability as a coach by his record
of 34 wins, 8 ties and 21 defeats against
the best in New England. Many of his
stars have been men who have never
played the game before coming to college.
Several of his inexperienced teams, as for
instance the 1939 club, have improved vis-
ibly during the season demonstrating ex-
cellent coaching.
This year's team was handicapped by
the loss of some really outstanding play-
ers. The forward line, the full-back posi-
tions, and the goal were all empty from
graduation. It was necessary for Larry to
find replacements and to develop a sys-
tem of play suited to the new team. He
had seniors, Jakobek, Howe, Schoon-
maker, Buckley, Bowen, and Captain
Brown around whom to build. Burr,
Gould, Aykroyd, Klaman, Silverman,
and Jacobson were the juniors with var-
sity experience. Ev Langworthy, a senior,
came out for the first time this year, and
did a fine job at center forward until he
Inirt his leg in the Springfield game. The
outstanding find of the year was Vern
Smith who was also a beginner; he de-
veloped rapidly into the first string goalie
and his ability was demonstrated by the
low scores in the last part of the season.
The team started the season with "in-
experience" written all over it. Rensse-
laer's fine team had no trouble at all hand-
ing State a 4-0 setback. For the Dart-
mouth game, the boys had a long trip
which might as well not have been taken,
and absorbed an even worse shellacking to
the tune of 6-1.
After these two games, Larry decided
to change the style of defense ; for he now
realized that this team could not hope to
play the game that Podolak and Auer-
bach had made so successful. The results

scored the two goals. Vern Smith gave a
masterful exhibition of goal tending, and
Jakobek was a new man under the
changed defense.
Despite the fact that the next game
was a 2-0 defeat with Springfield, the
team had not suffered a letdown. At
Hartford, the next week, the team did not
look nearly as good in beating Trinity 2-0.
The Amherst game was a disappoint-
ment, although little chance was given for
the Briggsmen to win before the game.
State looked better than the Lord Jeffs
during most of the game, but the two
goals by Coleman of Amherst clinched
the game at 2-1.
The season's finale was a satisfying
one, for it was a victory over M.I.T. with
a score of 3-1. As a team should be in the
last game, the Statesmen were their
best of the season.

MASSACHUSETTS STATE COttEGE INDEX
CROSS COUNTRY
Outstanding for the 1939 Maroon har-
rier squad was Captain Chester Putney
who more than lived up to the faith placed
in him by his election to the captaincy in
his junior year. "Chet" consistently
showed the spirit and character for which
his team chose him, and was the first
State runner to cross the finish line in
every race of the fall.
Following Putney in prominence in the
year's records was a trio of sophomores,
Dave Morrill, Ralph Bunk and Bill Kim-
ball. Other runners who were consistent
scorers were veterans Kennedy and Hay-
ward and senior Art Copson.
After losing the first three meets, the
Maroon and White runners came back to
show what they really had by winning the
last three and placing second in the Con-
necticut Valley run. First to visit the
campus was highly touted Northeastern.
Running on painfully weak ankles. Cap-
tain Putney tied for second with Kimball
to hold the score down to 24-31.
The following week, journeying to
Boston, the Statesmen really tasted de-
feat at the hands of the M.I.T. harriers.
Again suffering from ankle trouble. Put-
ney was the only State runner to place in
the first six. The last loss was a close one,
dropped to Worcester Tech by only four
points. Taking the first two places, the
Techmen scored 26 to the local's 30, al-
though the latter placed six of the first
ten.
The remainder of the season is more
pleasant to relate. Springfield furnished
the first victim of the mid-season come-
back. A quadruple tie for second place
gave State a 22-33 win.
The Maroon hill-dale team really cov-
ered itself with glory the next week by
edging Wesleyan to take second in the
Connecticut Valley Championships. As
predicted, Connecticut University walked
away with first, but as unpredicted,
State nosed out the Wesleyan outfit by
one point, taking all places from 13 to 17.

with Amherst. This year the Jeff's weak
team easily yielded the second win of
the year, 20-41.
Eleventh in a very fast field was
State's lot the following week at Boston
in the N.E. IntereoUegiates. However,
the harriers' trip to Hartford proved a
fitting climax to the season. The final
score against Trinity in this last run was
27-28 with State supporters holding their
breath as the Hartfordites took first,
third and fifth.
As a fitting reward for his consistent
second-place showing, William Kimball
was picked as next year's captain. Doing
exceptionally well in his sophomore year.
Bill should follow Putney's fine leader-
ship of this year, both in spirit and run-
ning.
A word of praise is due Coach Llewelyn
Derby for turning out, in his 18 years at
State, the sixteenth team to maintain a
.500 or better average. Balance was the
point stressed by "Derb" this year, and
it should be an even bigger factor in
putting at least two-thirds of the 1940
meets in the win column.

With Captain Howie Rudge the only
letterman returning from last year's
team, State was hardly expected to have
as strong a team as has been the custom
in recent years. Although Bill Frigard's
men won only one out of fifteen games
during the season, the team improved
with every game and before the season
was over gave its followers many a thrill
and chance to cheer. The men in Maroon
never gave up trying and accomplished
the unexpected when it defeated State's
traditional rival Tufts, although it lost
to Amherst, Springfield, and Worcester
Tech, who were all in turn beaten by
Tufts. A review of the season will show
that, while the Statesmen seldom won,
the games as a whole were hard-fought,
thrilling, and close.
The season opened at home on Decem-
ber 12 against a powerful Trinity team.
Trinity, used its greater reserve strength
to defeat State 63 to 39. Coach Frigard,
experimenting with his inexperienced
squad, used substitutes freely in an at-
tempt to find his best combination. Cap-

game, and Bill Walsh, a promising junior,
led the State attack.
The team took its second defeat of the
season from a fast passing Middlebury
club, 34 to 25. It was definitely an off-
night for State until the last few minutes
of the game, when the team returned to
the form of which it is capable, but the
rally was too late and fell short of a win.
On returning from the Christmas vaca-
tion. State suffered a defeat, 43 to 26,
from Springfield, one of the best college
teams in the vicinity, who were superior
to State in height, experience, and man-
power. State's defense showed great im-
provement and the team fought hard
from the opening whistle. The scoring
for State was divided among Allan,
Walsh, Frodyma, Smith, and Rudge.
Continuing to improve with each game,
the Frigardmen led a strong Williams
team almost the entire game before finally
succumbing 34 to 30. The Statesmen
played aggressive, spectacular game, and
Williams was very lucky to escape with-
out an upset.
In the first game of the annual Town
championship series, Amherst edged
State 24 to 23 in a low scoring hard-fought
game packed with thrills for everybody
and heart-break for State. With nine
minutes to play Amherst forged ahead
24 to 23 and the rest of the game was
fast and thrilling but failed to produce a
score. Bad breaks, which seemed to be
working overtime to haunt the team this
year, played a large part in the defeat.

On January 17 State journeyed to
Worcester to play a much publicized
Clark team. With Strzelecki giving a daz-
zling exhibition of basketball. State went
down to defeat to the tune of 58 to 34.
The entire team, with Walsh and Miles
taking the cheers, continued to play an
improving brand of basketball.
In the last game of the first semester
the Statesmen faced Wesleyan at Mid-
dletown and came back at the wrong end
of a 43 to 19 score. Playing on a surface
vastly different from the State cage, the
team had trouble with the out-of-bounds
lines and repeatedly lost the ball. Frody-
ma starred for State.
Resuming play after mid-semester ex-
aminations, the Statesmen faced Rhode
Island State, probably the outstanding
team on the New England schedule.
Modlezewski tossed 23 points for the
Rams and he was ably assisted by Con-
ley, Rutledge, and Keaney. During the
first half the Rams lived up their press
notices rapidly building up a wide lead;
State came back strong in the second half
to bring the final score up to 85 to 42 in
favor of the Rams.
A favored Tufts team came to the cage
on February 9 and was surprised by an
aggressive, hard-fighting Maroon team
that refused to be beaten. Coach Fri-
gard's men played a fine brand of basket-
ball and after a thrilling see-saw battle,
the Statesmen were rewarded with their
first win of the season. The home team
had trouble in stopping Tibbs of the
visitors, but Miles and Walsh piled up
points until State won 42 to 40.
After the Tufts game State's bad luck
returned for the rest of the season. Coast
Guard edged out a victory 38 to 36, Feb-
ruary 10, after State had led by 15 points
at one time in the second half.
In the second and deciding game for
the town championship. State succumbed
to Amherst 48 to 37. Swamped by a dev-
astating first half attack, State rallied in
the second half but it was not enough to
overcome the high lead of the Lord Jeffs.
Smith and Rudge for State, and Norris,
Hicks, and Reed for Amherst led the
scoring.
State traveled to Storrs on February
17 where Connecticut University gave
State a basketball lesson. The Frigard-

men were never in the game, Connecticut
running up a 19 to 0 lead before State
could score a point. The Statesmen never
gave up fighting, however, and managed
to rally in the second half to bring the
final score to 65 to 35.
On February 20, State played a power-
ful Worcester Tech team to a standstill
during the first half of a keenly fought
game in the local gym, but in the second
half were unable to stop Forkey and Bel-
los, who scored 43 points. All the States-
men played a fast headsup game, with
Norwood setting the pace in scoring. The
game was much closer than the final score
of 64 to 43 would indicate, for Worcester
scored freely in the last few minutes of
the game.
Failing to hold an early lead the Frig-
gardmen went down to defeat at the
hands of Rensselaer Polytech at Troy on
February 24. The Maroon made a fast
start but failed to keep the pace. As has
been the case all season, Dame Fortune
smiled on the opponents, and State failed
to get the breaks at a crucial moments.
BiU Walsh starred for State, getting 14
points and playing a sterling floor game.
The Statesmen closed their hectic sea-
son on March 2 in Boston against Boston
University. The Beantowners proved far
too strong for the Maroon and after ten
minutes of play led by 19 to 3, Frigard's
men played without the services of their
injured Captain Rudge. Walsh led the
State attack in a second half rally that
fell far short of pulling the team in the
win column. The final score was 48 to 22.
The final game of the season brought
down the curtain on one of the most de-
pressing records a State basketball team
has compiled in recent years. Neither the
team nor the coaching can be held re-
sponsible for this showing, however, they
have had more than their share of hard
luck, ineligibilities, injuries, and sickness.
With a few breaks at the right time, the
record might have looked much different.
There is hope, however, for Lou Norwood
and Captain Rudge will be the only
lettermen lost by graduation. Moreover,
the freshmen showed several promising
players in their games this year and
should combine with the now experienced
sophomores and jimiors to compile a com-
mendable record in 1941.

SWIMMING
"The miracle man of New England
coaches" modestly said last year's Index
concerning swimming mentor Joe Rogers,
when he coached his team to five straight
wins. 1940 has seen swimming advance
from a minor puddle splash to the out-
standing sport in the eyes of Maroon
rooters. The reason for this — an unde-
feated season. Even in Aggie-Army-
Harvard-Dartmouth days, it would have
been good, but now, it is little short of
miraculous.
Joseph Jodka, the vmassuming sopho-
more from Lawrence, held several records
when he entered college and has been
adding to his glory ever since. After
Jodka, the next point meriting attention
was team strength. For it was this quality
which accounts for the outstanding per-
formance of the 1940 swimming team.
Included in the men who made this show-
ing possible are Avery, Coffey, Hall,
Jones, McCallum, Morse and Prymak.
Worcester Tech visited the local pool
first. They journeyed home with 27
points to State's 48. Connecticut Univer-
sity, visiting the pool four days later, felt
lucky to get home with their suits, as the
Rogersmen captured first in every swim-
ming event. The U-Conn's did capture
first in the dives and enough "show"
places to gain 19 points. But, meanwhile,
State was having a little meet among her
own swimmers, while rolling up a 56
count. Jodka, although not pushed turned
in a college breaststroke record of 2:33:7.
Nip-and-tuck battles between Morse and
Coffey in the 440-yard event and Avery
and Jones in the 50-yard free style added
spectator interest.
The locals next took to the road and
duplicated their home feat. Wesleyan,
barely nosed last year, took the same
medicine as Connecticut, winning only
the dives. Although the score was 55-20,
the times turned in were rather slow.
The Coast Guard meet, also away,
proved a real record breaker. Joe Jodka
became a public hero, as he set up a New
England for the 60-foot pool. His time
was 2:29:6. Two other records were also
shattered at that meet. The 400-yard
Prize amphibian . . .and Joe's Water Circus at a meet .

relay team composed of McCallum,

the team. Coast Guard's firsts in the
dives and the 60 and 100-yard free style
races gave them 30 points to the States-
men's 45.
The last home meet saw the largest
score of the season, the home team mak-
ing 58 to a scanty 16 gained by Bates
College. The relay team, this time com-
posed of Prymak, Jodka, and Captain
Pitts, broke the college record established
the week before. Closest race of the eve-
ning was Coffey and Morse's battle in the
440-yard free style. Coffey finally came
out the winner, turning in the fastest
time which either had shown all season.
Graduation takes Swimmers Morse
and Pitts and Diver Palumbo. It will
take a little support to make an undefeat-
ed team next year, however, as has been
said, Joe Rogers — "the miracle man."

TRACK
Broken records, an average season and
expectations of a better season next year
present the chief highlights of the 1940
track record. Individual performances
were outstanding, but lack of team
strength resulted in a mediocre win-loss
report. The short distances and field
events showed concentrated strength,
but State's scanty representation in the
long distances several times was the de-
ciding factor of a meet.
The season opened with the K. of C.
and B.A.A. meets in Boston. The dual
meets were split. Strong Connecticut
University met strong opposition, but
came out ahead 45-36. The Indians from
the Springfield Y.M.C.A. College went
down rather easily to a 54-36 defeat.
The triangular meet with Tufts and
Worcester Tech found State in second
place. The following week State played
host for the Connecticut Valley Champ-
Derby, Klaman, Haskell, Green (M), Kimball, Lavitt (M)
Greenfield, Adams (M), Skolnick, Criramins (M), Mosher, Freitas (M)

St
ionships and very nearly made itself a
poor host, for the Maroon squad led the
meet fully three-quarters of the way.
Then, a clean sweep of the middle and
long distances left the U-Conn's with 48
points to the Statesmen's 40. The final
meet of the winter season saw the Maroon
go down to a superior Northeastern team,
54-15.
The many broken records of the 1940
season form a more interesting story. Per-
haps outstanding under this heading was
pole-vaulter Chester Budz. Returning
to State after a year's absence, he broke
the existing college record for the long
distance, shattering his record several
times.
Using his own unique form, baseball
captain Warren Tappin took all comers
and bettered the college's indoor broad
jump record by several inches.
Ed O'Connor, after previously com-
peting in all the other short distance
runs, came through in the 300-yard with
a new college record in the Connecticut
Valley Championships. In the same meet,
'■fJ?C\
his classmate. Jack Crimmin, sprinted to
a new 35-yard time of 4.8 seconds. An-
other record was also dislodged in this
Valley affair, run on one of the fastest
tracks ever seen in the cage. Chester
Putney, a consistent placer all year in the
mile-run, bettered the college record in
this event, although he finished third in
the race. These marks, with the outdoor
records of Captain Joyce in the hurdles
and New England Champion Curtis in
the javelin throw, make an impressive
list of individual performances.
Many of these stars will be with the
team next year, and a few of this year's
freshmen are coming up to add team
strength.

BASEBALL
The varsity baseball team for 1939
enjoyed an excellent season of twelve wins
and only three defeats. After a successful
pre-season trip to Pennsylvania, the
Statesmen got off to a whirlwind start
in the regular season by winning nine in
a row. Their streak was halted by Wesley-
an and stamped on by New Hampshire
two days later. They hit the comeback
trail against Springfield, but Boston
College was too strong. However, Union
succumbed to the Maroon onslaught,
and Amherst was taken into camp for the
second time of the season on Commence-
ment Day.
Before going into the season, it might
be well to say a word about the men on
this club; for some of them were out-
standing for a college team. Probably the
two most prominent players were co-
captains Johnny Bemben and Fran Riel.
Bemben, who pitched good ball for three
years of college competition, held down
first base when he wasn't hurling in his
senior year and did a bang-up job in both
positions. Riel had his best year of pitch-
ing and was always a dangerous hitter.
While State is at bat, the boys on the bench knock on wood.

Carl Twyble, the third pitcher, was also
extremely effective in his first year of
varsity play winning four and losing one.
Perhaps these three did so well because
they had such an effective receiver in
Steff. Another pitcher, Frank Fanning,
showed plenty of promise on the spring
trip, but an injury early in the season
kept him out of action. Beagle Morey
ended his college playing career with a
fine season both in the outfield and at bat.
Captain-elect for 1940, Warren Tappin,
led the team in batting and was depend-
able in the field. The infield varied as the
games rolled by, but Howie Rudge, Al
Irzyk, and Stan Jackimczyk held the
pitchers' worries down to a minimum.
The team as a whole was a remarkably
close unit, possibly because of the spring
trip which was a joy ride for all concerned.
Remarks about the tent required to
uniform the voluminous Frank Spencer
caused no particular animosity. Bud
King's chatter would invariably send
Paul Fanning into gales of laughter which
would cause the rest of the team to grin
even if the chatter did not. Fran Riel
liked to lead the bus in choruses of
"Hinkey dinkey parley vous." Johnny
Bemben did his best to keep Carl Twy-
ble's mind off the game at Union by con-
stantly referring to the girl on the
bleachers. Ebb ground away on his
tobacco all season, and is reputed to have
worn the same pair of socks for the dura-
tion of the first winning streak. Even
Dickey the bat boy, who bossed all the
other kids, was an essential part of the
unity of the club.
The season opened at home with a

walk-away from Williams 15-4. Riel held
the Ephmen to seven scattered hits, while
the home boys banged out thirteen hits.
Bemben garnered two triples, and Fran
Riel hit three out of five times at bat.
Carl Twyble pitched the next game in
which he blanked the Bowdoin Polar
Bears 6-0. Five State hits combined with
seven Bowdoin errors spelled .^n/.v for the
invaders from Brunswick. Superior play-
ing in the field really decided the game
for M.S.C, because Bowdoin made two
more hits than the former.
Despite the cold that prevailed in early
May, Ebb used his traditional "warm
weather" pitcher, Johnny Bemben, in the
next game to beat Amherst 8 to 4. Ace
Williams yielded twelve hits and his team
made eight errors to help the State cavise.
Bang-Bang bore down in the tight spots
so that at no time did the Jeffmen really
threaten.
The next game was the postponed
Connecticut State game. Riel relieved
Twyble in the third with the score 6 to
3 against him and pitched magnificent
ball until the eleventh when Irzyk's
triple drove Allan in with the winning
run, making the score 8-7.
State's workhorse, Fran Riel, also
pitched the next game, and he allowed
six hits, fanned eleven men, and knocked
out a home run to help slaughter Trinity
14-1.
Carl Twyble came back with a repeti-
tion of his Bowdoin score to beat W.P.I.
6-0. Stan Jackimczyk and Howie Rudge
starred afield in this one.
The tilt with Tufts was an innovation
in that it was a double header. Riel
pitched the first and Bemben the second,
and State won both with scores of 2-0
and 6-3. Warren Tappin was outstanding
at the plate. He garnered four out of
seven among which was a four bagger.
Up to this point in the season, the team
had roared through eight wins and was
getting a little bit cocky. However, the
next two games were a somewhat deflating
influence. Wesley an took advantage of
some very sloppy State field work and
eked out a 6-5 victory. All either team
could get was three hits. Bemben pitched
winning baseball, but his support gave
him his first defeat of the regular season.
On Alumni field, the second Connecti-
cut game proved to be a thriller. State's
Riel pitched a five hitter while the op-
ponent's Mitchell gave only four singles.

»

Frank Spencer broke up the game with a
long fly in the ninth to drive Tappin in
with the second and winning run.
The lesson taught by the Wesleyan and
New Hampshire games was forgotten in
the next contest. The team went down to
an inglorious defeat at the hands of Bos-
ton College. Extremely lackadaisical play
practically gave the game away. All of
Bemben's efforts to stem the tide were
fruitless, and an 8-2 shellacking was
absorbed.
On Memorial Day, State avenged a
defeat of the 1938 season by setting back
Union 9-6. Carl Twyble had the game well
in hand until late in the game when Bem-
ben took his place.
The club finished off a great season in
grand style in the final game of the year.
State clinched the town title and insured
a successful commencement by beating
the Amherst team for a second time 5-2.
Fran Kiel was the master, and the oppo-
nents did nearly everything he asked.
Prospects for 1940, although not so
bleak as some woidd picture them, are
not as promising as they were in the spring
of 1939. Standbys of the past three
years, Kiel, Bemben, and StefF all gradu-
ated, which left only Carl Twyble as a
nucleus for the 19-10 pitching staff and
several men with little varsity experience
for receiving posts.
The team is not to have the impetus of
a spring trip for the first part of the sea-
son. The 1939 club got the jump on other
teams in this vicinity by its pre-season
schedule and held that advantage most
of the season. Stan Jackimczyk is a
question mark for the team because of a
physical disability that may keep him
out of action. Bobby Triggs is not likely
to catch because of a strained ligament in
his throwing arm. All of these things
combine to give Ebb a few more grey
hairs.
However, Morey and Phelps were the
only other regulars to graduate, and there
should be no trouble in filling their shoes.
With the exception of the catcher, State
will thus field an experienced team which
should give the pitchers better support
offensively and defensively. The baseball
team may not be so successful as in the
past, but it will give a good account of
itself.

INTERCLASS ATHLETIC BOARD
Skiing and golf may possibly be added to class competition ac-
cording to preliminary arrangements being made by the incumbent
Interclass Athletic Board. The improvements which are being
made on Bull Hill, State College's "skiing Mecca," will make it an
ideal place to hold skiing competition provided that the weather
conditions are favorable.
Composed of two members from each class, the Interclass Ath-
letic Board — one of the College's active student organizations —
conducts the regular class sports competitions and enlivens interest
with additions and improvements to its yearly schedule. Each
class elects two members who serve throughout their four years at
college. As a body, they schedule interclass games in cooperation
with the Athletic department, determine the eligibility of team
candidates, and award numerals to members of winning teams.
Football and soccer in the fall; swimming, track, basketball, and
hockey in winter; and baseball, track and tennis in the spring —
these are the sports in which the board plans to hold interclass
competition.
New tennis courts on the campus will make possible a new inter-
class tennis competition this spring. The competition will be con-
ducted in the form of a tournament, just as this winter's interclass
basketball games.
Results of games held this year were: Football — tie game; soccer
— freshmen; swimming — freshmen; basketball — freshmen; basket-
ball— freshmen ; hockey — no game ; and winter track — freshmen.
The pride of an athletically inclined student (next to the well-
known "M") are his class numerals. Forty-two numerals were
awarded in the sports listed above. These awards marked the middle
of another year of interclass sports, a successful form of athletic
activity supplementary to the regular varsity sports.

W. A. A.
The purpose of the Women's Athletic Association at Massa-
chusetts State College is to provide more opportunity for partici-
pation in sports by the average college woman. Activity clubs are
organized by the managers of the various sports. Each club de-
velops a definite program which includes periods of practice and
instruction for improvement of skill, interclass competition, tourna-
ments and telegraphic meets.
The W.A.A. planned a new system of competition this year.
In addition to interclass competition, a competitive program among
house teams was organized. Class teams are chosen from the house
teams and interclass competition takes place after the house sched-
ule has been played off. Under this system six groups are repre-
sented and organized according to the places of residence of women
students. The following groups are invited to send one or more
teams to all tournaments — the Abbey, whose residents may not
play on any other house team throughout the year; the Indepen-
dents, girls who have not affiliated themselves with a sorority, and
members of any sorority which does not maintain a house; Lambda
Delta Mu; Alpha Lambda Mu; Sigma Beta Chi; and Phi Zeta.
The W.A.A. Board is composed of three officers — president,
vice-president and secretary; and an athletic council of ten that
consists of the managers of the separate sports, and the Physical
Director of Women. All students are associate members of the
organization, but the voting power is restricted to active members
who are girls participating in at least one of the recognized sports.
At the time of the annual banquet and installation, awards are
made to members who have shown outstanding ability, faithfulness,
good sportsmanship, and an active interest in the promotion of
their particular sport.

MASSACHUSETTS STATE COLLEGE INDEX
I
ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
Midnight sessions with Milt Fitch and Dean Valz, crowded and rushed days
taking pictures with Charlie lanello, comradely help on Index problems at any
time of day or night with other students and the faculty, and honest-to-goodness
work with all of them — these have made up the actual Scenes Behind the Scenes in
the Index Office.
Dean Valz of the Andover Press, Ltd., has assured the quality of printing in
the Index by his years of solid yearbook experience; he has instilled a new spirit into
the members of the board with whom he has worked. The inimitable Milton Fitch,
of the Howard-Wesson Engraving Company, provided "editorial inspiration" along
with entertaining anecdotes. He, too, took a deep interest in the '40 Index —
as is evident from his habitually trying to keep his appointments at State in spite
of rain, snow, sleet, traffic, lack of sleep, und so weiter in the catalog of Life's Vicis-
situdes.
Professor Lawrence Dickinson, Business Adviser; Dr. Maxwell Goldberg,
Editorial Adviser; Professor Frank P. Rand, General Manager; and Mr. "Red"
Emery, Alumni Secretary, have all guided and advised the Index, thereby con-
tributing to a smoothly operating system in the editing and managing of the book.
Only through the sound business policy of Professor Dickinson was a book with the
color and comprehensive photography of the '40 Index made financially possible.
Miss Dorothy Cooper, Mr. Fitch's associate, and Miss Barbara Elder, secre-
tary to Mr. Valz, likewise did their utmost in helping us meet oin- deadlines.
Many of the students on campus, especially Ev Spencer of the News Service,
Frank Daley, Marge Irwin, Ralph Dakin, and Ken Witt, have, also, either added to
the photography sections or have given their time and valuable suggestions toward
the general progress of the book.
These are the people — to whom this page is dedicated. Their help has partly
gone toward making the difference between a run-of-the-mill book and an outstand-
ing publication. Their help has made the work of the board lighter and more pleas-
ant. But, most important of all, with their cooperative attitude and work they have
largely made possible the publication of the Index the first week in May, at the
same time keeping the high quality typical of Massachusetts State College . . .
