FOREWORD 

This  book  is  merely  a  collection  of  diversi- 
fied facts  which  are  to  be  found  in  a  number 
of  different  places,  and  are  collected  together 
in  this  small  volume  in  order  to  help  you  to 
become  better  acquainted  with  the  history 
traditions,  and  general  life  of  the  University 
of    which    you    are    to    become    a   part. 

We,  the  editors  of  the  "M"  book  of  the 
University,  hope  that  the  material  that  we 
have  gathered  may  in  some  small  way  help 
you  to  acquire  a  better  understanding  of  your 
new  life  here. 

Of  advice,  you  will  find  little,  but  what  we 
do  give  we  feel  should  be  properly  heeded  in 
order  that  you  may  benefit  by  the  mistakes 
that  we  who  have  gone  before  you  have  made. 

You  are  now  on  your  own,  make  the  most 
of  it,  and  in  any  difficulty  that  you  may  find 
yourself,  the  editors  of  this  book  stand  ready 
to  help  you. 

Make  the  most  of  these  next  four  years,  and 
beware  of  the  most  common  malady  of  young 
collegians.    Procrastination.

DEDICATION 

In  recognition  of  his  unceasing  efforts 
in  successfully  reviving  dramatics  at  the 
University,  and  raising  the  standard  of 
play  production  to  a  height  seldom  at- 
tained on  the  collegiate  stage,  we,  the 
staff,  dedicate  this,  the  1936-1937  "M" 
book   to 

DR.   CHARLES    B.   HALE 

whose  counsel  and  guidance  to  freshmen 
has  made  him  indispensable  to  the  Uni- 
versity of  Maryland.

PRESIDENT'S  MESSAGE 

Dear  Marylanders : 

Old  students  know,  without  need  of  wel- 
coming words,  that  we  are  glad  to  see  them 
back.  On  them  we  depend,  in  great  part,  to 
convey  our  real  greeting  to  the  newcomers 
among  us.  Freshmen  have  yet  to  learn  that 
the  University  of  Maryland  is  going  to  be  a 
real  home  to  them,  and  old  students  play 
perhaps  the  largest  part  in  making  this  home 
a  home  of  wide  opportunities,  socially,  in- 
tellectually, morally,  physically,  and  spirit- 
ually. 

To  the  newcomers  to  the  campus  we  tell 
you  that  we  shall  share  with  you  all  that 
we  have.  We  want  to  help  you,  and  you  have 
only  to  let  us  know  when  help  is  needed. 

You  will  have  some  adjustments  to  make, 
but  will  find  them  much  more  easy  than  you 
expect.  Your  own  good  judgment,  aided  by  the 
advice  which  will  be  yours  for  the  asking, 
should  enable  you  to  meet  successfully  any 
problem  that  you  are  likely  to  encounter.  We 
shall  be  glad  to  lend  a  helping  hand. 

Personally,  my  office  door  is  open  to  you 
always. 

Sincerely, 

H.  C.  BYRD,  President.

"M"  BOOK  GREETINGS  FOR  1936-1937 

A  hearty  welcome  to  all  students  at  the 
University  for  the  year  1936-1937,  whether 
you  be  old  ones  returning  or  new  ones  enter- 
ing our  doors  for  the  first  time. 

We  hope  the  years  spent  on  our  campus 
will  be  worthwhile  in  every  way.  Not  every- 
one is  able  to  come  to  college  and  those  of 
you  who  are  fortunate  enough  to  have  a  col- 
lege   education    should    be    deeply    appreciative. 

All  work  and  no  play  makes  Jill  a  dull 
girl !  and  in  order  to  get  the  most  out  of 
your  college  career  you  should  take  part  in 
some  extra-curricular  activities.  However,  this 
does  not  mean  to  take  part  in  too  many,  but 
to  choose  wisely  among  the  many  offered  you. 
If  you  actively  participate  in  two  you  will 
derive  more  benefit  than  if  you  join  so  many 
that  you  can  only  passively  participate. 

I  am  sure  your  college  days  will  be  happy 
ones  and  ones  that  will  be  firmly  imprinted  on 
your  memory.  Live  them  to  the  utmost ! 

Sincerely  yours, 

ADELE  H.  STAMP.  Dean  of  Women.

HISTORY 

Perhaps  the  best  and  most  graphic  illustra- 
tion of  the  remarkable  progress  the  University 
of  Maryland  has  made  since  its  founding  in 
1807  is  found  on  the  College  Park  campus  in 
the  old  Mechanical  Engineering  Building,  the 
first  building  in  the  State  devoted  to  the  teach- 
ing of  engineering.  Erected  in  1895,  this 
building  today  forms  a  section  only  of  the 
Engineering  group,  which  includes  a  small 
auditorium,  seating  250  persons,  with  other 
buildings  to  house  electrical  engineering,  civil 
and  mechanical  engineering,  their  laboratories 
and  equipment,  and  with  the  original  building 
housing  only  a  shop,  and  a  few  classrooms. 
The  advances  made  since  its  construction  in 
1895  are  commensurate  with  the  progress  of 
the   entire  University. 

The  present  University  of  Maryland  was, 
originally,  two  separate  institutions,  the  Uni- 
versity of  Maryland,  founded  in  1807  under 
the  name  of  the  College  of  Medicine  of  Mary- 
land, and  the  Maryland  State  College,  founded 
in  1856  at  College  Park  as  the  Maryland  Agri- 
cultural College. 

The  College  of  Medicine  of  Maryland  was 
first  located  at  Lombard  and  Greene  Streeta, 
in  Baltimore,  and  the  building  which  was 
erected  to  house  it  in  1814-15  is  the  oldest 
structure  in  America  devoted  to  the  teaching 
of  medicine. 

In  1812,  the  General  Assembly  of  Maryland 
authorized  the  College  of  Medicine  of  Maryland 
to  "annex  or  constitute  faculties  of  divinity, 
law,  and  arts  and  sciences,"  these  to  form  an 
institution  to  be  known  as  the  University  of 
Maryland.  In  1813,  a  move  was  made  to  es- 
tablish the  "faculty  of  law,"  and,  in  1823,  a 
school  of  law  was  opened.  Subsequently,  a 
College  of  Dentistry,  a  School  of  Pharmacy, 
and  a  School  of  Nursing  were  added.  The 
first-named  is  the  oldest  Dental  College  in  the 
world. 

25 


In  1856  was  established  the  Maryland  Agri- 
cultural College,  which  later  became  the  Land 
Grant  College  of  Maryland.  It  was  conducted 
for  a  number  of  years  as  a  private  institu- 
tion, but  financial  disasters  and  the  general 
depression  which  followed  the  Civil  War  made 
it  necessary  for  the  College  to  appeal  to  the 
State  Legislature  in  1866  for  assistance.  In 
1916  a  new  charter  was  granted  to  it  as  Mary- 
land State  College  and  the  State  took  complete 
control.  An  act  of  the  Legislature  in  1920 
united  the  old  University  of  Maryland  with 
the  Maryland  State  College,  to  form  the  present 
University  of  Maryland  with  branches  in  Balti- 
more and  College  Park. 

Five  new  buildings  have  been  erected  within 
the  past  three  years  and  two  more  have  just 
been  completed.  Enrollment  since  1912  has 
jumped  from    130  to  2,000. 

Increased  facilities  are  likewise  noted  in  Bal- 
timore, with  a  splendid  new  $1,500,000  hospital 
recently  completed,  a  new  law  building 
opened  two  years  ago,  and  a  new  dentistry  and 
pharmacy  building  but  recently  put  into  use. 
Enrollment  in  the  Baltimore  branch  of  the 
University  averages  about  1,600.

STUDENT  PASTORS 

Most  of  the  major  religious  denominations 
at  Maryland  have  Student  Pastors  who  min- 
ister especially  to  the  students  of  their  denom- 
ination. The  Student  Pastors  have  an  office 
in  the  Student  Center,  where  each  has  his 
office  hours  during  the  week.  The  Baptist, 
Episcopalian,  Presbyterian,  and  Lutheran  stu- 
dents have  denominational  clubs  which  meet 
regularly  during  the  year.

any  other  time  he  must  report  to  the  INFIRM- 
ARY, before  going  to  his  room.

PARKING  REGULATIONS 

The  Automobile  Parking  Regulations  are 
for  the  purpose  of  protecting  the  appearance 
of  our  campus  as  well  as  for  personal  safety 
and  convenience.  These  regulations,  which 
have  been  in  operation  for  several  years,  have 
been  found  very  beneficial  to  our  campus. 
The  following  are  the  regulations  proposed  by 
our  Campus  Parking  Committee  and  approved 
by  the  Administration : 


Automobiles  MUST  NOT  be  parked  or 
STOPPED  on  any  of  the  campus  roads  except 
to  take  on  or  dischaige  passengers.  Hanging 
on  cars  is  not  permitted.  Fast  driving  and 
rounding  curves  at  a  speed  greater  than  fifteen 
(15)  miles  per  hour  is  prohibited.  Blowing 
horns  in  front  of  buildings  disturbs  class  ac- 
tivities and  is  prohibited  at  all  times.  Driving 
off  campus  roads  on  grass  is  positively  for- 
bidden. Students  must  not  park  in  Visitors' 
Spaces  located  near  the  Dining  Hall  and  in 
front  of  the  Agriculture  Building. 

University  Lane  has  been  made  a  through 
traffic  boulevard  and  parking  parallel  there-

STUDENT    GOVERNMENT    ASSOCIATION 

Student  government  at  Maryland  has  at- 
tained unusual  heights  in  efficiency  and  or- 
ganization during  the  past  year  with  the  Uni- 
versity administration  adopting  a  broad  and 
elastic  policy  in  permitting  students  to  prac- 
tice self-government  as  far  as  is  practicable. 
Final  jurisdiction  is,  of  course,  vested  in  the 
President  of  the   University. 

The  presidency  of  the  Student  Government 
Association  is  the  highest  position  open  to  an 
undergraduate  and  one  of  utmost  responsibil- 
ity. The  Student  Government  has  as  com- 
ponent parts,  a  men's  unit  and  a  women's 
unit,  each  to  consider  its  respective  problems 
and  the  Executive  Council,  composed  of  a  cross 
section  of  student  leaders.  The  Executive 
Council  has  final  jurisdiction  as  far  as  the 
student  governing  is  concerned.  The  Student 
Relations  Committee,  a  faculty  body  appointed 
by  the  President  of  the  University,  which 
acting  for  him  approves  all  major  actions  and 
formations  of  student  organizations. 

The  Vice-President  of  the  Student  Govern- 
ment Association  is  Chairman  of  the  Executive 
Council,  which  enables  the  President  of  the 
Association  to  act  as  a  voting  member  and 
thus  more  adequately  facilitate  legislation  and 
maintain  the  Parliamentary  procedure  of  the 
sessions. 

Meetings  of  these  organizations  are  held 
twice  each  month  or  on  special  occasions  at 
the  direction  of  the  President  of  the  S.  G.  A. 
All  meetings  are  closed  to  the  public. 

All  student  activities  under  the  Association 
are  financed  by  one  of  the  most  complete  sub- 
sidization plans  in  university  or  college  circles 
in  the  country.  The  activities  fee  of  $10  paid 
by  each  student  upon  entrance  to  the  Univer- 

33 


sity  is  apportioned  between  publications,  dra- 
matics, debate,  opera,  and  the  host  of  similar 
functions  on  a  percentage  basis,  with  the  re- 
sult that  each  undei-graduate  realizes  returns 
on  his  investment  far  in  excess  of  the  original 
fee.  Thus,  admittance  to  all  dramatic  and 
operatic  performances  is  free,  all  publications 
are  distributed,  without  charge,  to  those  who 
have  paid  the  fee,  and  similar  benefits,  which 
might  otherwise  occasion  financial  difficulties, 
are  obtained   without  hardship   to   the  student.

HANDLING    OF    FINANCES    OF    STUDENT 
ORGANIZATIONS 

In  the  spring  of  1930,  the  Student  Govern- 
ment Association  passed  a  resolution  to  charge 
each  student  a  general  activities  fee  of  ten 
dollars  ($10.00)  per  year,  which  fee  included 
payment  of  his  class  dues  and  subscription  to 
The  Diamondback,  The  Old  Line,  and  The 
Terrapin.    In   1931  the   Student  Band,    and  the 

49 


Footlight  Club  were  added  to  this  group,  and 
each  student  receives  in  return  tickets  to  two 
performances  of  the  Footlight  Club.  Debate 
was  added  in  1933,  and  further  subsidized  in 
1934.  A  combined  Glee  Club  was  also  added 
in    1934. 

The  money  received  is  prorated  among  the 
aforementioned  organizations,  according  to  a 
percentage  schedule  arranged  by  the  Student 
Government  Association.  The  accounts  of 
these  organizations  and  all  of  the  general 
student  organizations,  including  The  Ross- 
bourg  Club,  Scabbard  and  Blade,  and  the 
Maryland  Christian  Association,  are  grouped 
in  one  account  and  are  under  the  supervision 
of  a  Faculty  Adviser,  and  the  Assistant  of 
Student  Activities.  At  the  beginning  of  each 
school  year,  each  organization  submits  a 
budget  for  approval,  and  then  writes  an 
Older  for  each  expendituie  tf)  be  made.  This 
is  checked  against  the  budget  items  and,  if 
sufficient  funds  are  available,  is  approved  by 
the  Faculty  Adviser.  Various  firms  with  which 
the  students  deal  have  been  notified  that  the 
Student  Government  Association  is  not  re- 
sponsible for  any  contracted  debts  for  which 
an  order  has  not  been  issued.  Any  student  or 
individual  contracting  debts  without  an  order 
is   personally   responsible. 

Records,  which  are  always  open  for  inspec- 
tion, are  kept  at  the  Central  Office  for  each 
organization.  Besides,  each  organization  treas- 
urer keeps  his  own  sot  of  books,  which  serves 
as  a  check  upon  the  Central  Office.  The  bills 
are  voncherrd,  and  the  accounls  are  audited 
by  the  State  Auditor  at  the  end  of  the  year. 
In  the  first  issue  of  The  Diamondback  of  the 
school  year,  a  full  statement  is  issued  of  all 
accounts  handled  by  the  Central  Office  during 
the  previous  year.  A  check,  which  eliminates 
a  great  deal  of  misunderstanding,  is  also 
maintained  for  the  students  upon  the  sale  of 
tickets  for  such  functions  as  those  held  by 
the  Footlight  Club,  and  the  Rossburg  Club.

STUDENT  PUBLICATIONS 

Three  student-edited  and  student-written 
publications — The  Diamondbaclv.  weekly  news- 
paper ;  The  Terrapin,  year-book,  and  The  Old 
Line,  bi-monthly  comic  magazine — are  pro- 
duced by  University  of  Maryland  undergradu- 
ates as  official  organs  of  the  Student  Govern- 
ment Association. 

The  staffs  of  each  of  these  publications  are 
composed  of  students  from  freshman,  sopho- 
more, junior  and  senior  classes,  with  the  edi- 
tors chosen,  except  in  unusual  circumstances, 
from  members  of  the  latter  group.  These  edi- 
tors are  chosen  by  popular  election  each  spring 
from  a  group  of  candidates  selected  by  the 
outgoing  editors  and  the  Faculty  Advisor  of 
Student  Publications.  Eligibility  for  positions 
is  determined  by  length  of  service,  ability,  and 
freshman  and   sophomore   staff   records. 

Shortly  after  registration,  a  meeting  of  can- 
didates for  Student  Publications  is  held  under 
the  supervision  of  the  editors  and  business 
managers,  and  questionnaires  are  issued  to  de- 
termine the  type  of  publication  and  depart- 
ment in  which  the  applicants  wish  to  work. 
No  previous  experience  is  necessary  to  become 
members  of  a  publications  staff. 

The  Diamondback,  weekly  newspaper,  is  pub- 
lished every  Monday  and  contains  complete 
University  news  and  official  bulletins  with 
which  every  student  should  be  familiar.  Op- 
portunities are  afforded  undergraduates  to  se- 
cure much  valuable  experience  in  advertising 
and  editorial  lines.  The  Terrapin  is  published 
in  June  and  contains  a  complete  record  of  the 
University  work  for  the  year,  together  with 
summaries  of  spring  sports  results — a  feature 
almost  unique  in  college  annuals.  The  Old 
Line  appears  six  times  each  year,  with  pros- 
pects bright  for  increasing  the  number  of  is- 
sues until  the  magazine  is  established  on  a 
tnonthly  hasig.- 

61 


Each  undergraduate  at  Maryland  is  required 
to  pay  a  blanket  sum  of  $10.00  on  the  day  of 
registration.  This  provides  for  a  year's  sub- 
scription to  the  "Diamondback,"  the  weekly 
published  every  Monday  during  the  school 
year ;  year's  subscription  to  the  "Old  Line," 
bi-monthly,  published  six  times  during  the 
school  year,  and  the  "Terrapin,"  annual,  which 
is  issued  about  June  1st. 

Major  officers  of  the  publications  for  the 
year  1936-37  are:

All  of  these  publications  welcome  tryouts  for 
their  respective  staffs.  Any  student  wishing 
to  affiliate  with  one  of  them  should  consult 
some  member  of  the  staff  which  he  or  she 
wishes  to  join. 

DRAMATICS 

Hampered  somewhat  by  mediocre  staging 
facilities,  the  Footlight  T  lub.  principal  organi- 
zation of  campus  thespians,  has  produced  a 
number  of  truly  noteworthy  plays  during  the 
past  six  years. 

62 


Under  the  tutelage  of  Dr.  Charles  B.  Hale, 
talented  coach,  the  Footlighters  have  staged 
successfully  an  average  of  two  full  length 
plays  a  year  and  a  number  of  one-act  per- 
formances and  comedy  skits.  The  combined 
talents  of  both  players  and  Dr.  Hale  have  re- 
sulted in  productions  that  have  attracted  much 
favorable  comment  from  local  and  national 
critics. 

During  the  past  season,  the  Footlight  Club 
presented  three  dramas  in  carrying  on  the 
fame  of  the  group.  These  were  "The  Tav- 
ern," "Oliver  Oliver,"  and  "Journey's  End." 
It  was  in  appreciation  of  these  and  other 
presentations  of  equal  merit  that  this  current 
issue  of  the  "M"  Book  was  dedicated. 


GLEE  CLUB  AND  OPERA  CLUB 

Since  the  revival  of  the  Opera  Club  last 
year,  the  Glee  Club  and  Opera  Club  have 
worked  hand  in  hand  producing  programs 
which  have  elicited  praise  both  locally  and 
nationally.  The  Opera  Club  produced  an  opera 
this  past  year,  "Sweethearts."  Under  the 
direction  of  Harlan  Randall,  musical  director 
of  the  University,  the  two  groups  had  a  very 
successful  year.  The  Glee  Club,  combined  with 
a  women's  choi'us,  gave  many  programs  both 
on  the  campus  and  in  Washington.  They  also 
took  part  in  the  All-University  Night  program. 


DEBATE 

The  administration  for  a  number  of  years 
has  supported  intercollegiate  debating,  recog- 
nizing this  student  activity  as  one  of  the  most 
important  activities  from  a  cultural,  educa- 
tional,   and   practical   training  standpoint. 

Two  years  ago  "The  Calvert  Debate  Club" 
was  formed  to  better  centralize  the  preparation 
and  pi-esentation  of  the  debates  on  the  regular 
schedule,  and  to  discuss  current  topics  of  the 
day.      Try-outs   are  held   twice    a   year,   during

the  first  month  of  each  semester ;  all  members 
of  debate  teams  are  selected  from  this  club. 
Professor  C.  S.  Richardson,  Head  of  the 
Public  Speaking  Department,  is  chairman  of 
the  faculty  committee  which  works  in  cooper- 
ation with  the  club  as  an  advisory  body  to  it. 
Schedules  are  arranged  through  the  Student 
Activities  Office.  Besides  debates  on  the  cam- 
pus and  at  nearby  high  schools,  the  men's  and 
women's  teams  make  several  trips  to  colleges 
throughout  the  south   and  north. 


MARYLAND    CHRISTIAN    ASSOCIATION 

The  Maryland  Christian  Association  at  the 
University  of  Maryland  is  a  voluntary  fellow- 
ship of  men  and  women,  both  student  and 
faculty,  who  unite  in  the  endeavor  to  find  the 
highest  values  in  living  and  to  make  them 
effective  in  daily  life.  It  was  formed  in  1930 
and  its  object  is  to  achieve  closer  fellowship 
and  co-operation,  and  to  promote  an  all-cam- 
pus program  to  meet  student  and  faculty 
needs. 

Each  year  the  cabinet  for  men  and  women 
works  out  its  own  statement  of  purpose  and 
its  goals  for  the  year,  making  a  direct  effort 
to  meet  the  specific  needs  of  the  campus. 
Some  of  the  features  of  its  program  are 
Freshman  Commissions,  Freshman  Week  Pro- 
gram, Student  Sunday,  Freshman  Discussion 
Groups,  Speakers,  Vesper  Services,  Confer- 
ences,  Fireside  Forums,   and   Social   Events. 

Membership 

Every  student  and  faculty  member  who  is 
in  sympathy  with  the  purpose  of  the  Associa> 
tion  is  invited  to  join,  and  to  unite  with  the 
other  members  in  the  search  for  individual 
and  corporate  life  at  its  best.  The  voting 
membership  consists  of  those  who  sign  the 
statement  of  purpose,  thus  voluntarily  declar- 
ing  their   desire    and    intention   of   seeking,    in 


close  co-operation  with  all  other  members,  the 
best  possible  life.  For  many  in  this  fellow- 
ship the  way  is  most  clearly  pointed  by  the 
life  of  Jesus, 

The  affiliate  membership  is  composed  of 
those  who  take  part  in  any  way  in  the  activi- 
ties of  the  association.  The  program  is  de- 
signed to  include  and  to  serve  all  persons  in 
the  campus  community,  and  all  are  invited 
to  participate  in  such  phases  of  it  as  they 
desire. 

Student  Control 

The  plans  and  program  are  determined  and 
promoted  by  the  two  Cabinets,  with  the  ad- 
vice and  aid  of  the  Advisory  Board.  Meetings 
are   held   monthly. 

In  all  of  their  work,  the  Cabinets  and  Coun- 
cil have  the  advice  and  help  of  the  faculty 
and  student  pastors.

THE  ROSSBOURG  CLUB 

The  Rossbourg  Club,  founded  in  1891,  is 
Maryland's  oldest  and  most  prominent  social 
organization.  Its  primary  function  is  to  give 
a  number  of  informal  dances,  free  to  members. 
During  the  past  few  years  it  has  shown  very 
rapid  growth,  due  principally  to  the  fact  that 
it  has  given  the  most  successful  dances  Mary- 
land  has   ever   known.

Organizations 

Section  IV. 

"M" 


CONCERNING  FRATERNITIES 

The  aim  and  dream  of  many  a  freshman  is 
to  attain  membership  in  a  great  collegiate  fra- 
ternity. To  many,  this  dream  means  luxury 
of  living,  a  sense  of  superiority,  a  good  tim^ 
among  "brothers,"  and  a  shining  pin  to  show 
the  home  folks. 

A  fraternity  or  sorority  should  mean  much 
more.  It  should  mean  closer  companionship 
with  other  men  or  women  with  similar  ideals 
who  are  pledged  to  raise  the  moral,  educa- 
tional, and  social  standards  of  the  group. 

In  a  few  weeks,  many  will  have  the  oppor- 
tunity to  join  one  of  these  lodges.  The  oppor- 
tunities for  you  to  benefit  from  these  affiliations 
are  numerous,  but  please  keep  in  mind : 

That  your  decision  will  probably  have  more 
effect  on  your  future  life  than  any  you  have 
ever  m:ide  in  the  past. 

That  you  are  not  an  outcast  if  you  do  not 
receive  the  bid  you  wish,  or  any  bid — you  may 
be  too  intelligent  instead  of  too  backward  to 
interest  that  particular  organization. 

That  many  of  the  potentially  fine  men  have 
been  completely  buried  in  their  fraternities. 

That  men  in  other  fraternities  may  be  worth 
cultivating  or  keeping  •^s  intimate  friends. 
Some  of  your  best  friends  in  the  Freshman 
Class  will  not  be  in  your  fraternity.  Do  not 
lose  them. 

That  you  are  entitled  to  know  the  financial 
set-up  of  any  fraternity  that  rushes  you. 

That  it  is  neither  any  credit  to  you  nor  to 
a  fraternity  to  obligate  yourself  before  the 
official  pledge  day. 

And  that  your  success  or  failure  does  not 
rely  on  whether  you  make  a  fraternity  or  not, 
but  on  the  initiative  and  perseverencc  you 
show  in  either  situation.  Some  men  arc  ac- 
tually made  by  fraternal  affiliation;  others 
submerged  or  ruined.  Choose  your  course  care- 
fully, remembering  thai  after  pledge  day  your 
battle  to  prove  your  real  worth  is  only  starting:.

INTRAMURAL   SPORTS 

Under  the  direction  of  Professor  C.  L.  Mack- 
ert,  Maryland's  intramural  sports  program  has 
expanded  rapidly  in  the  past  several  years.  In 
order  that  a  maximum  number  of  students  may 
participate  in  'mural  activities  a  widely  di- 
versified schedule  of  sports  is  followed. 

In  the  fall  of  the  year  touch-football,  soccer, 
tennis,  and  golf  headline  the  list  of  activities 
pursued.  When  winter  comes  the  intramural 
scene  is  shifted  indoors  and  basketball,  boxing, 
wrestling,  and  volleyball  occupy  the  center  of 
attention.  With  the  first  signs  of  spring  the 
baseball  leagues,  and  tennis  and  golf  tourna- 
ments get  underway.  The  annual  track  meet 
held  in  the  middle  of  May  is  an  outstanding 
feature  of  the  intramural  program.  Last  year 
over  500  students  participated. 

Besides  the  seasonal  sports  mentioned,  year 
'round  interest  is  maintained  in  horseshoes, 
ping-pong,   swimming    and   fencing. 

As  an  added  feature,  extramural  competitions 
are  held  several  times  each  year  between 
Maryland,  Georgetown,  and  Catholic  Univer- 
sity, 


WOMEN'S   ATHLETIC   ASSOCIATION 

According  to  the  constitution  of  the  Women's 
Athletic  Association,  only  its  members  are 
eligible  for  athletic  awards.  A  freshman  can 
obtain  her  numerals  when  she  has  obtained 
thirty-five  points.  After  her  freshman  year, 
any  member  earning  fifty  points  may  receive 
her  letter.  A  letter  winner  earning  fifty  addi- 
tional points  may  get  her  blazer.  Such  a  co-ed. 
making  another  fifty  points,  is  awarded  a  small 
gold  jewelled  "M"  by  the  "M"  Club.  Before 
either  of  the  last  two  awards  are  given,  a 
candidate  must  be  passed  upon  by  the  members 
of  the  "M"  Club  and  the  Executive  Council 
of  the  Women's  Athletic   Association. 

115 


Hockey,  basketball,  volleyball,  baseball,  and 
soccer  are  the  major  sports.  Membership  on 
one  of  these  teams  counts  ten  points.  Two 
extra  points  are  given  each  member  of  the 
winning    team. 

The  minor  sports  are  as  follows :  Archery, 
tennis,  tennequoits,  and  ping-pong.  Horseback 
riding  is  also  included  in  this  group,  but  has 
slightly   different   requirements. 

Exams  for  manager  are  given  two  weeks 
before  the  sport  begins.  One  woman  can  be 
manager  or  assistant  manager  of  only  two 
sports.

Maryland 


In  the  very  heart  of  Maryland, 

In  the  heart  of  every  Maryland  man. 

There's   a  spirit  so  endearing 

It   will   win   your  heart   and   hand. 

For  she  doth  hold  sway, 

She   will   win  the  day. 

And  her  glorious  men  will  ever  win   the  fray. 


Chorus 

Then    it's   Hurrah !   Hurrah !   for   Maryland. 
Then's   it  Hurrah !   Hurrah   for   U.   of   M. 
With   her   banners   ever   streaming   high. 
She    will    always    win    or   die. 
Never  forget  the  glories  of  the  past. 
Carry  on  triumphant  to  the  last, 
For   we   love,   we  love   Old  Maryland, 
Hurrah  !   Hurrah  !   Hurrah  !

Keep   that  pigskin   a-rolling   along ! 

Then   it's   Whiff!    Wham!     Whack!

Shout  out  his  signals  loud  and  strong  ! 

Where'er  you  go,  you  will  always  know

We've   got  the   team,    boys. 

We've  got  the  steam,  boys.
