Unmoved by the toil and tears of human desires is the
inexorable roll of the seasons. Today, ivhen men's
minds are doubting, and their hearts are confused, the
land and its never-ending cycle remains as a symbol
of stability, which human dignity may yet achieve.
Ihe summer grasses knoiv nothing of dictators, the
fall winds understand not the heartbreak of ivar, the
winter snows and deep dark tides feel not man's hate.
Though the fields and hills of Cassino be bloody
with the dead, the rains come quickly to ivash them
green; and the persistent grasses obliterate the treads

of man's warfare. Long after the passino- of our
age, the surf will eurl among the hlaek roeks, and the
sun beat the earth. The elements are no respeeter of
man or his death. Though a man may lie ivounded
on a Paeifie beaeh, the zvaves eontinue to lap around
him; and the easualty on the Russian front is as softly
and quiekly covered by snow as the trees above him.
Nature's order is perpetual: but her latent power is
fir greater than any ever ivielded by man— even in his
most barbaric moments. The scientist may discover
afezv of nature's secrets, and he may invent in order
to destroy, but he can never hope to equal the terrify-
ing splendor and desolation of a storm at sea; a flam-
ing river of lava engulfing a city; or a massive
rolling ivall of water, carrying buildings and humans
impartially in its wake. Yet, in spite of destruction.
Nature retains her magnificent equilibrium, the storm
passes, the volcanic ash brings fertile farm land, and
the floods recede — the seasons change the ivounds
are healed.

'I hrongh all tin- Ncars ol your life, nou would
nc\or again know that excitement that came with
returning to college. For you freshman and up-
perelassmen both, it was a very special feeling.
You freshmen were embarking on a life very new.
For many, it was \our fust lime away from home,
and \c)u were a lillle IrighteiK^d, but determined
nol lo <lu)w ii. Ti'iily, your life was so lilled from
the moment you ariix'ed, with linding baggage,
meeting your roommate — and wondering if you
would get along — taking placement tests and start-
ing classes, that there was hardly time to think
that now you were actually in college. But then
there came the moment when all your impressions
crystallized — perhaps you didn't write home how
you felt; but in your heart was the sudden thrill
when you stood at the end of your lirst sing and
heard the iilmo maler, the tears in your heart at the
beauty of the Cihapel spires when "Skipper" round-
ed the corner, the happiness that came from know-
ing and liking the girls whom you met.
And \ou upperclassmen— even less could you
describe the feeling that you had on returning.
It was as though you had never been away; and
yet, subtly, each year was different. There were
new faces, and some of the old were gone. But
the campus would never change. "\'ou realized as
those golden fall days passed, that it would always
be young; for it was made of youth and youth's
dreams. You, too, dreamed and planned; and all

the lime you were sKjring memories — the familiar
panorama of color that is a football game, the
"wee-hour" bull sessions; .Sunday suppers in Re-
naldi's, waiting in line at the Center; valiant
attempts at note-taking in eight-thirty classes; the
tall, clean freedom of the Chapel pines against the
sky; afternoon labs, argmnents between ReiJuijli-
cans and Democrats; the peace of sunset behind
the Librar\-, as you came out of the Union on a
hushed i'all evening.
All these you would remember. And as week-
end jumped to weekend, you realized it dimly;
especially you seniors, who saw those fall days pass
almost with rc-grct, that this was a part of life that
you wcjuld ne\cr know again.

A TRIBUTE
ON THE PASSING OF A GRFAT HFART
HENRY RUDOLPH DVVIRE, 1882- 1944
Alumnus, Director of Public Relations and
Alumni Affairs, Vice President
A giant in a modern world — great in stature,
heart, mind and soul. His breadth of sym-
pathy, knowledge and understanding, extended
to all phases of human life. He was equally
at home in the fields of politics, education,
economics, social life and religion. His opinion
was valid as to the most gifted ministers, the
outstanding statesmen, the leading educational
theories, the soundest economic principles, the
most correct pronouncement in oliciuette or
the best recipes for fine food.
He had unflagging zeal, untiring energy, in-
exhaustible good humor, unfailing patience,
unafl^ected goodness, unflinching courage, un-
assuming strength, and an ever-present love
for Duke University.
Toward the high and influential he was
friendly without fawning; toward the lowly
and humble, cordial without condescension.
.All divisions of the University and thousands
of friends elsewhere are deeply pained at his
death.

You were xvhat
the ivoiid needed—
you SENIORS
HTHE SENIOR CLASS of 1945.
Proudly we say this phrase;
and equally proud are we of our four years at
Duke. In these years, we ha\e seen many
changes in our classmates, on the campus, and
in the nation. As freshmen, we heard war
declared and saw our boys lea\e for the service.
The campus changed from pre-war collegiate
days of fun and gaiety to a more solemn and
serious place. And in the four years of war
and sorrows, we saw smiles, and behind those
smiles courage; for hardly a one of us has not
now been directly affected by the war — and
some of us e\-en ha\c husbands overseas.
Many of our classmates are not here to grad-
uate with us; instead, they sei^e in Europe and
the South Pacific. Each day we see the fa-
miliar face of a former V-12 or N.R.O.T.C'.
boy who has come back to know again the
Duke Chapel, the campuses, and the gardens.
We, who ha\e stayed behind and ha\-e studied
in the peaceful atmosphere of the University,
have tried to give our best efforts to the war
by participating in the Red Cross and COGS.
We have watched many classes come in
after us, and we have come to take the place
of leaders on the campus — a place which
seemed so distant to us in that freshman year
of 1 94 1. We were presidents of organizations,
secretaries, editors, and chairmen. We began
to realize as the end drew near, that others
would take our places. It was almost a fright-
ening thing to realize that without our presence
and all oiu' actixities that we had counted so
important, the university would still continue
. . . that years later it would still ix^ young, that
the Social Standards would still be giving the
Coed Ball, and that the Chanticleer would
still be sponsoring the Beauty Queen. But
though the realization was a slight IjIow to
our ego, it was also a secure thing to knov\ that
something in our experience would always be
alive with ycjuth's hopes and dreams. We
realized that now for us, all that we had done
in college was not a thing apart, l)iil a picjja-
ration for the rest of living.
The four years of living and laughing and
working at Duke .seemed very brief, as we
realized we were about to lca\c; but tho.se
people whom we had known oiu freshman

year and who had left before finishing also
seemed almost a part of another life. Our
freshman week, the first cabin party, the night
of the Rose Bowl bid, classes on West Campus,
life without imiforms. As we looked back, we
realized that these memories that were now
crowded out by the multitudinous activities of
our Senior year, would come back to us more
and more as we looked back on colle"e, and
that they would become more and more a
very valuable part of our store of memories.
Now the world calls us acUilts, and we are
looking back on our foin- college years with
gratitude for all that Duke has oll'ercd us. We
rememi)er our Sunday night sings, our clas.ses
on East and West, the sight of the Washington
Duke statue, the stately buildings, and Duke's
immc:)rtal chapel. Our purpose on campus lias
been to live Duke's tradition to the fullest,
gain its priceless friendship, its understanding
and greater insight, and in turn to give it our
best character, ideals, and dreams.
May 1945 and we, another class, step forth.
We are sorry to leave, but anxious to put to
u.se the knowledge that we ha\(" gained in four
years. And thougli we will be scattered across
the coinitry, we will return. We will return
once more to see the chapel spires against the
.sky and know again the nostalgia of seeing
beauty which was once our dail\' life.

"\X7E, THE JUNIORS, returned
^ ^ this year depleted in number
but determined to carry on the spirit and ac-
tivities of the class of '46. We missed sucli
girls as Jean and Joan Fountain who had
joined the W'ACS. and the others who did not
return to Duke this fall, but we enjoyed meet-
ing and v\orking with those who transferred
into our ranks. And we miss those boys who
have left for the Service or who have graduated
ahead of us.
Some of the heartier members of our class
started out the year by pitching in to help a
local farmer pick his cotton crop. The rest
distributed their time freely among the various
wartime activities sponsored by COGS; band-
age rolling. Nurses Aide, the C^hristmas party,
U.S.O. parties, selling war bonds, knitting,
and working in the union and the alumnae
office.
Being women, we could not help ha\ing a
bridge party and fashion show as one of our
class projects, and a spring dance. And after
Christmas, we sold food in the dormitories
every Sunday night.
As Juniors, we were an in-between-class, we
were not yet the top class on campus, and still
neither were we new. We had only to look
forward to the time when wc would be the
leaders on the campus, when we would be
White Duchy and Phi Kappa Delta. Already,
we had been going through a training period.
Consciously, we may not ha\e realized it; but
our clas.ses, the activities in which we had par-
ticipated, and the friends we had made, were
all a part of that learning to li\e and getting
along with people that would make us goocl
leaders in college and outside.
As a class, we had a solidarity that came
from our thinned ranks and our months of
Using together. We remembered thos<' who
had left from our group as did no other class
on campus, and we had our own special mem-
ories that were connected with our freshman
days and our life together. Though we h;ici
these memories as a class, we were quick to
take in those members who had transferred
from other colleges. We found that they li.icl
much to offer to us, and we, in return, c(nild
give to them. Their ideas and experiences
from other schools added freshness to our li\-
ing together.
With the leaving of the Engineers from our
campus, it was announced that students of the
Women's Campus would be housed in South-
gate Dormitory; and it was our class which
would pro\icle the leadership for the new house.
It was a challenge for us to open a new house,
when the majority of its leaders, its officers,
president and freshman advisers would be
from our class. With .so many more freshmen
tiian upperclassmcn housed there, it gave us
an opportunity that we would otherwise not
have known, of being of service. In this, as
in all our activities, we tried to bring an alert-
ness and an enthusiasm that would mark us
as a class worthy of remembrance.
Despite wartime restrictions, our many mem-
ories of our past three years at Duke are very
plea.sant — the traditional class picnics, the two
Goon Days in which we took part, once as the
goons, once as the mighty sophomores, the
Bunny-Hop our Freshman year, and our as-
sociation with the class adviser. Dr. Katherinc
Jeflers.
Now. we begin to realize that the last year
of oin- college life is fast approaching. Wc
hope it will be a year in which we may make
the greatest possible contributions to the uni-
versity, to the war effort, and to oursehes.

'E H.w'E c:oME b.\c;k to
"drar old Duke," but thi.s
time as sophomores, ever-conscious of (he new-
responsibilities that we must assume. We
have come back, not to the Duke of ante-
bellum days, the ""country club" days, but to
the Duke that realizes its importance as an
institution that is turning out the citizens and
planners of the postwar world. We realize
that we must meet the challenge of the future,
and work harder and better at everything we
do, not for our own peace of mind, but t)e-
cause we owe it to those who are fighting and
d\ing to preser\e our way of life and our \ery
right to be here on this campus when such a
deadly conflict is going on.
Our work really began with the arri\al of
the freshmen in September. The Sandals
cheerfully carried bags (and more bags), be-
came guides for tours of the campus, ga\e an
open hou.se, and assisted harassed advisers
with homesick freshmen.
Immediately, we were swept up in the mael-
strom of class meetings and projects, prepara-
tion for the much-dreaded Goon Day, dances,
cabin parties, COGS work, and all those out-
side activities that make college what it is.
Of course, studying was ever foremost in our
minds, and our goal was higher than just
""making that C average." New friendships
were made and old ones strengthened, and
the class became more firmly united and acti\e.
An unusually lenient sophomore class we
proved tcj be in our annual day of dominance.
Goon Day. .After weeks of gleeful planning
we tasted sweet re\enge at seeing freshmen
bow down to IS this vear. A rat court inter-
spersed with frecjuent air-raid drills for our
\'ictims kept the freshmen atremble and finally
established our prestige as sophomores.
In the spring, we sponsored a new and dif-
ferent project, a campus fair, aptly called the
"Pickpocket." I'he Ark was the .scene of
gaiety and laughter as coeds forgot their penny-
wi.se ways for a spree at dart throwing, pitch-
ing pennies, having their pictures taken, raf-
fling movie tickets and cakes, having fortunes
told, shuddering at the horror show, and play-
ing endless games of bingo for the coveted
prize of cigarettes. Most every student on
campus responded to our in\itation to ""Knock
three times and ask for Joe."
We made plans for one last project, a spring
[)icnic, as the clo.se of our sophomore year
came in sight. The lazy warmth of the days
and the picture of cotton-clad students on
campus made us realize with a start that exams
were practically upon us and that half oiu"
college life was over if we were lucky enough
to pass.
We have enjoyed this our second year at
Duke University. We started the year with
a wonderful feeling because at last we were
sopiiomores and no longer the ""babe.s-in-arms"
of deal old Duke. We could now show the
fi-eshmen how to behave as we had been so
painfiflly shown the year before. We felt
that we knew a lot more about the "ins and
outs" of college life, and we were ready and
willing to let everyone know it. Our soph-
omore year lived up to everything we expected,
and we feel that wc have gained the utmost
from the experience of another year at Duke
one we won't .soon forget.

So neiLK but
soon so ivise—
you FRESHMEN
^rim FRESHMAN class of 1948
entered Duke with high aspira-
tions of aclue\ement and success. VVc, as a
class, felt that we possessed liie potential cjuali-
tics necessary to carry us through the four
years of oiu' college career. During Fiesh-
man Week wc recei\ecl from our Freshman
advisers, the faculty, and the stafi", invaluable
aid whicli helped us to become better adjusted
to the new phase of our life. With their assist-
ance we easily leaped the hurdles of registra-
tion and placement tests. HowcNcr, all their
helpfulness could not assist us on (icjon Day.
This day will long be remembered by us as one
of pigtails, razzing, and .sophomore duties.
'Fhe next weeks were Hlled with studying and
quizzes in preparation for our first mid-semes-
ter exams. After these tests were completed,
Clhi'istmas and vacation loomed foremost in
our minds, and in almost no time we boarded
the train for home and holiday fun.
Not all of our time had been spent in study-
ing, for numerous social activities played an
important part in our campus life. At one
of the most outstanding dances of the year, the
Co-ed Ball, freshman Butfa Garrett was crowned
Duke Beauty Queen of 1944-45.
After our return, wc were faced with the
problems of final exams. Days and nights
were spent in traditional "cramming" as was
evident by the wan expressions seen on East
campus co-eds. 'Fhen grades werc^ posted and
although we did not do as well as we had
hoped, we knew that the next semester pre-
sented opportunities for impro\ement.
As we look toward tlu- future, it is our desire
to strive for cooperation and unity and to de-
velop .self-reliance and a sen.se of responsibility
in each member of our class. VVc realize that
we as the Class of 1948 must uphold and
strengthen the high aims of Duke Uni\ersity
and that during the next three years we must
make the most of our college careers. There
will always be a warm feeling in our hearts,
however, when we remember our freshman
1 RL.SHM.W CL.VS.S OllICI.R.S, Hack, UJt to rig/il: Gaselle

days. Which one of us will e\'cr forget our
first impressions of the Unix'ersity and its beau-
tiful grounds, that first realization of really
being on our own without parental guidance,
and oin- admiration and mimicry of the won-
derful upperclas.smen? Then, too, we will
recall CJoon Day and resoKe not to be so cruel
to the poor freshmen as the sophomores were
to us. There is so much to remember and
laugh o\er about our first few weeks as college
students that we know wc shall never forget.
We will remember how some of us actually
bought seats in assembly from the uppercla.ss-
men and how awe-stricken wi> were when we
got our first view of the chapel rising in the
distance as Skip[)er rounded the corner. ,\11
these memories of ours bk-nd into a beautiful
picture of life at Duke University which we
must strive to make the incoming freshman
class .see as clearly as wc do. It will be our
duty to uphold all the high standards of knowl-
edge and character for which Duke's motto
''Erudito and religio" stands, and our aim
to get the most (jut of these next few years.
College is a grand place anytime, but when
it's Duke with a freshman cla.ss like ours, the
outlook for 1948 is a cheering one.

CLASSES in the- Nursing School, although thc\'
arc termed ditTcrcnlly, arc in reality grouped tiic
same as those in tiie regular school classification.
Pre-elinicals arc comparable to freshmen, freshmen
comparable to sophomores, and the juniors and
seniors arc the two upper di\isions in the Nursing
School. 1 he lime spent in each of these classes
is nine months with a continuity of classes through-
out the \ear. When it is possible, formal classes
Tho^e who serve— ihc NURSKS
are suspended during the sununer, and the prac-
tical side of nuising work is carried on. In this
way a lew girls al a time may ha\c dieir annual
month's vacation.
The old "All work and no jjlay" nia.xim docs
not hold true lor die nurses, for they somehow man-
age to take time off from their strenuous schedules
to work in a few extra-curricular and social activ-
ities. One of the first of these was a formal dance
which they held in the Washington Duke ballroom
early in the fall. During the winter months the
girls of the Nursing School held weekly |)artics in
their dormitories. As springtime rolled around
they found lime to follow the example of coeds ev-
erywhere in daily sunbathing excursions, cabin-
parlies, picnics and Sunday jaunts on horseback.
Many of the girls in the Nursing School are mem-
l)ers of the .Army Nursing Ckjrps and in this capacity
they are preparing themselves for active duty in the
Army of the United States. Nursing is one of the
most important and necessary fields which are now
open for women and the girls in the Duke Univer-
sity Nursing School have chosen for themselves a
truly humanitarian profession.
Class unity and spirit is strong in the Nursing
School and the disciplinary plan that hospitals
were founded upon exists in a ferxcnt respect for
the classes and indi\iduals who [)rcccdc these girls.
It is well that such respect for authority be [jreseni,
for there is no more responsibilc position than that
of the nurse.

riiL- X.R.O.T.C. unit was established at Duivc
University in 1941, and the V-12 program followed
in July 1943, under Clapt. A. T. Clay, U.S.N, (ret.)
with an enrollment of 140. Of this number, ap-
pro.ximately 85 received commissions in Marcii
1944. An additional class of 130 entered the unit
in September 1942, of whom 72 received their
commissions February 23, 1945.
The N.R.O.T.C. students arc selected from the
V-12 pro<j;ram after the students have compleled
two terms. They are then required to complete
live or si.x additional terms before being commis-
sioned as Ensigns.
The V-12 students go directly to the several
Midshipman's Sclu;ols wliere they are gi\'en a four
months' intensive training in naval subjects before
being commissioned. Besides deck officer candi-
dates, this group also includes pre-mcdical, pre-
ministerial, and engineering groups. This unit
was originally one of the largest on the East coast,
numbering 1,600, comparable in size with the
other large group at Dartmouth
In the future, the V-12 will gradually be absorbed
by the N.R.O.T.C, as it expands to its full com-
plement of 24,000. In peace time, it will rriurn
to 14,000 — a greater number than the prewar
status of 7,400, to help insure the security of the
postwar world.

^'Marse Jack'' was your Iradition-you SENIOR ENGINEERS
"Marsc Jack"" was your tradilion, you cnt^inccrs
said; and you were right. For ir was you thai sent
it pealing over East Clampus after every fooiI)aIl
victory. But it was not always so.
Most of you did not tcnow that long ago, the
same Marsc Jack replaced the Trinity Bell which
hung in the top of the old Washington Duke build-
ing, and which was ruined by fire in 191 1. The
new bell, bought by the University from England,
was housed in a wooden framework at about the
same spot which the greenhouse between Epworth
and the Pan-Hel. House now occupies. Not only
did it ring for victory, but it rang the ending of
class hours of the old Trinity College.
With the years, the tower began to rot, and the
University authorities c(;nsidered it unsafe. C^on-
sequently, it was decided to hang the bell in a new-
metal tower. At the same time, the Woman's
Campus was being constructed, and the bell was
moved in 1930 to its present spot between the
Woman's C>ym and .Asbury with appro|:)riate cere-
monies.
.\fter the opening of the West C'ampus, it was
you Engineers who took over "'Marse Jack." Now
that you too have been moved to West, the bell
remains f|uiet; but none will forget its ringing days,
nor your spirit, during the years when you engi-
neers lived on East.

DUKE STADIUM
OlXC^E ihc Tall of 1929 the horseshoe-
shaped Duke Stadium has been the scene of victory
and defeat, joy and sadness, for the thousands of
students who have filled its stands. On its football
field and track, many great athletes have per-
formed, bringing fame to themselves and to their
alma mater.
Perhaps the biggest event in the Duke .'Stadium
was the annual Tournament of Roses football
game, which was transferred from California to
Duke in 1942, and which was witnessed by 57,000
spectators.
The Duke Stadium with its green turl'. the music
of bands, amidst the cheers of its colorful spectators,
will always be a happy memory for all Duke stu-
dents.
131
IT PERHAPS seems peculiar to say
that a football team which lost no less than four
games during its scheduled season could be classi-
fied among the greatest elevens ever produced by
the university it represented. This, however, we
feel is applicable to Eddie Cameron's band of 1945
Duke Blue Devils.
The Duke squad, which averaged 19 years in
age, dropped four contests on successive Saturdays
in the early part of its season. But at the end of
the campaign, veteran Devil followers declared
without hesitation that this was unquestionably
one of the gamest, most colorful outfits in Trinity's
glorious gridiron history. Proof of the fact that
the Dukes were recognized throughout the land
as such was, of course, the Sugar Bowl invitation
which was extended to them immediately after
their last game.
At the beginning of the season, even before the
opening game, the team did not look like a world-
beater. Many of the candidates had only high
school playing experience to their credit. (Jthcrs
were trainee transfers from other institutions who

Coach Cameron
had worked under cliff"erent grid systems. Because
of this situation. Coach Cameron and his corps of
assistants deemed it best to start from scratch, and
they did just that. Using what few returning
Duke men were on hand as a nucleus, Cameron
diligently tutored the others in the fundamentals
of football — as played the Duke way — until I hey
could execute Devil plays like game-wise veterans.
Cietting off to an impressi\e start against Rich-
iiioiid the Dukes then proceeded to drop consecu-
tive engagements to Pennsyhania, North Carolina
I'ic-l'light, Na\'y, and Army. Three of these de-
feats were registered on foreign ])la>ing fields.
()nl\- Pre-l''lighl's ]:)onderous Cl()udl)usters suc-
ceeded in slopi^ing the Blue Devils on their own
stamping grounds.
Going down before ele\ens of this calii^er was
certainh' no disgrace, and Duke soon disco\'ered
itself tagged in the tuition's sports pages as "the
l)est losing team in liie country." Beginning with
the (ieorgia lech melee on Homecoming Day,
the I )e\ils set out to |)r()\c that they likewise de-
served to be consiclercd .is one of tiie country's l)est

Adam, Jack Eckdahl, and T. D. Locke,

Hagler came to Duke in 1930 as
freshman line coach; and a year later,
he was made varsity line coach, when
Wallace Wade was added to the coach-
ing staff. From the University of
.\iabama, he was All-.Southern guard
during his last year, and played in
the 1927 Rose Bowl. Stanley, one of
the finest end coaches in the country,
came to Duke in 1939 from a coach-
ing job in Florida high schools. Cald-
well is another star jjroduct of Wade
at Alabama, being a member of both
the '25 and '26 Rose Bowl teams.

Duke Launches Grid Campaign With 61-7 Triumph
^"
With scouts from both Pennsylvania and Army
in the stands, the Duke Blue Devils began the de-
fense of their Southern C^onference championship
on September 23 by substituting everyone but the
waterboy in crushing the visiting Richmond
Sjjiders, 61-7, before a rather sparse crowd of
8,000. The "contest" indicated little more than
the fact that Malcolm Pitt's charges were exactly
one touchdown better than they were in 1943, wlien
they also invaded Durham. Coach George Mun-
ger faced the most diflicuit task in his seven years
of coaching at Penn, in that he had only three
lettcrmen returning and ihc remainder ((jinposcd
mostly of V-12 trainees.
7'he game did reveal, however, that the Duke
pass defense left much to be desired and that con-
siderable emphasis would have to be placed on
this department in forthcoming practice .sessions,
if Devil secondary defenders were to sa\c them-
selves a bit of emi)arrassment when such talented
flingers as Navy's Hal Ilamberg and Doug Kenna
of Army commenced firmg aerials in their (lir(( lion
on Saturdays to come.
It was Duke all the way, with reserves slaiuiiiig
out as much as regulars. The all'aii- only lour
minutes old, tailback Cliff Lewis piirhed a stiike
to wingback Gordon Carver lor 25 yards and a
touchdown. 'I'om Davis, George Balitsaris, Jim
Larue, George Clark, and Howard Reynold regis-
tered the remaining scores, with Davis, Clark, and
Balitsaris contributing two each. End Hal Raeihcr
kicked no less than seven extra points.
Richmond's lone tally came in the second period,
when Orville Milner, Spider standout, passed 37
yards to C. Suttenfield. The Dc\ils rolled up 429
yards to Richmond's 13.
The eight thousand fans who saw Coach Eddie
Cameron take the wraps off his 1944 gridiron ma-
chine knew little more about the Duke team than
before they entered the stadiimi; and before the
game started, Cameron called on e\-ery man on
the squad as he tried various combinations in prep-
aration lor the most hectic gridiron schedule ever
undertaken by a Duke team. Actually, Richmond
had little to offer in the season's cm-tain-raiser and
the l^ukemen nuncd along at will, scoring twice
in each of the first, third, and lourlli (niaiii is. and
three times in the .second.
The sad point was that when Riclniioiul liii ilic
air lanes, Duke clearly displayed a decided weak-
ness against such an attack. The name was only
Iwo minutes old when llic lirsi i.illy was chalked
u|). Every time 1 )ukc u,in the ball, Duke started
on a sustained march, and so it went I'oi- ilic whole-
workout. Ilic Spiders were always in a hole, and
were forced to punt time and again. 1 his is where
[,ewis and Clark stood out mahhiiii; those kicks
and high-lighting it doun llic lield. Il was an
uneven conlesl Iml ihr reversals were \et to come.

Meeting Penn's Red and Blue for the first time
in history, the Blue Devils made a disappointing
showing in their initial test of the campaign and
down before the youthful Quakers by an 18-7
count. Forty thousand people jammed into wet,
fog-bound Franklin Field in Philadelphia to see
Penn win the ball game in the first 18 seconds of
play.
On the first play, Penn fullback Ed Lawless re-
turned the kickoff' to Duke's 45. Al Sica then
tossed 30 yards to Tony Minisi who caught the
ball on the 20 and went over unmolested. It was
on this play that Duke tailback Cliff Lewis, play-
ing safety man, fractured his elbow in diving after
Minisi, thus putting himself out of action for the
next four games. Penn scored again in the first
period, after marching 53 yards to the Duke 7,
when Wayne Hcllman took Minisi's left-handed
pass in the end zone. Neither conversion was
good.
The Devils came back strongly in the second
Cjuarter, however. Fullback Tom Davis, ex-Ma-
rine lieutenant, passed 1 7 yards to Carver, who
took the ball over. Raether converted. Trailinc:
12-7 in the third frame, the Dukes sustained a
brilliant overland marcii but could not j:)enctrate
tlie rugged Penn line for a score.
The victors' final touchdown came in the last
period. Sparked by Fullback Terry Southard,
Penn drove to the visitors' 9, from where Minisi
scored on a reverse play. Opel failed to convert.
Guard Ernie Knotts stood out in the Duke line,
blocking two attempted conversions and re[)catedly
spilling Penn backs for losses.
But all told, Penn's new teen-age footballers put
up a whale of a ball game. The Duke line looked
good, and performed creditably in j)reventing the
Red and Blue boys from cashing in on tries for
points after touchdown. Both teams used the
same pass defense, which features pass intercep-
tions; but the two that were snatched by Al Sica
were the only interceptions of the game. Penn's
eleven gained a net of 143 yards rushing against 99
for Duke. They made 11 first downs to 7. The
Red and Blue also had an edge in the air with six
completions out of nine tries for 86 yards. Duke
passed ten times, clicked with only three which
were good for 48 yards. In winning its first game,
Penn lost the services of Jack Sanft, guard, who
tore a ligament in his left knee during some rugged
line action. Duke's touchdown was honestly earned,
but it could have been argued had there been
bristles instead of fuzz on the Penn players cheeks.
'I'he Penn youngsters fought all the way but
couldn't halt the 49-yard drive that gave the Blue
Devils their onlv tallv.

Led by former Northwestern All-Amcrican Otto

came to Durham in 84-degree weather and look
the measure of the Devils in a thrilling cncoiuiter,

Although it muffed several opportunities to
score, Duke turned in a creditable job and showed
considerable improvement over its showing against
Pcnn. Paced by Graham's passes, the Fliers ar-
rived on the Devil 10 in the second cjuarler. Bill
Wilson, man-in-motion in Coach Glenn Killinger's
T-formation, swept around left end lor a touch-
down.
A hair-raising, slam-bang fourth quarter saw
both elevens score. CJraham and Stan Koslowski,
cx-Holy Cross ace, jjrought the ball down to the
Big Blue's 9, and the latter drove across the line.
Duke's George CHark ilicn returned the kickoff 72

Devils push Middies to own goal.
Traveling to BiUtimorc to avenge tlieir Ijitter
1943 14-13 defeat at the hands of Na\y"s Tars, the
Devils put lip a notable and extremely gallant light
in the Municipal Stadium before bowing to the
superior power of what was referred to in pre-
season press-releases as "the greatest collection of
football talent ever assembled."
Twenty-si.\ thousand fans witnessed this thrilling
struggle which ended in a 7-0 middle victory. It
was in this game that the Duke line completely
overshadowed the Devil backs, with Wolfe, Knotts,
Clrowder, Kerns, Irwin, Jones, and Harry all turn-
ing in superb performances.
After a scoreless first period. Navy registered its
touchdown midway in the second quarter when
Hal Hamberg returned a Duke punt to the Devils'
45. With Clyde Scott and Hamberg slashing off
gains. Navy moved to Duke's 15. Here Hamberg
rifled a pass to end Charlie Guy, who received the
ball on the 20 and ran it over. Vic Finos eon-
verted.
Duke came back vigorously in the second and
threatened to score time and again. Navy fought
a purely defensive battle. In the final period the
Dukes twice stalled deep in middle territory.
Reaching the Blue and Gold 20, Duke elected to
open up with passes, but none of these tosses proved
successful and Na\-y took over.
Again the Middies held and forced a kick. Ham-
berg running from his own 15 to the 28 before sli|>

live yards at the line, Crowder intercepted Jen-

I)a\is then made three yards at the line; and
then Navy drew a 15-yard unnecessary roughness
penalty, putting the ball on the 18. Three plays
netted the Devils no ground. .A screen pass was
good for eight yards but it left Duke short on a
first down; and Navy took the ball on its own 14.
Jenkins made eight yards at right end and Sulli-
van hit off tackle for a first down. The Tars picked
up five yards on three plays as the game ended.
It was evident that Navy slowed down the temj^o
in the final minutes to protect its slender lead
against a ri\al that grew stronger every minute.

The sports eye of the nation focused on New

regarded Blue Devils met Army's undefeated jug-

Fumbling the ball on the very first scrimmage
play, the cadets had their backs to the wall for the
entire first period. On the third play of the second
quarter, however, Glenn Davis raced around the
Duke end for a 53-yard touchdown gallop. Dick

converted. The Dukes left the field at halftime
with a 7-6 advantage in their pockets and an
amazed, bewildered crowd behind them.
In the third period, Colonel Red Blaik's two-
team system finally brought results. Army
punched over two overland scores in this frame,
and added another in the last as the tired Blue

Weakened considerably b\' llie transfer of all its
marine trainees, including Wolfe, Kerns, and Balit-
saris, the Duke squad met its fourth consecutive
unbeaten opponent on Homecoming Day as Bill
Alexander's Yellow Jackets visited Durham for the
first time since 1942.
The alumni in the stands found their \isit worth-
while as the Devils played magnificent footi^all to
upset the "best team in the South" by a 1 9-1:5
score in one of the most hair-raising games ever
played in Duke Stadium. The score changed no
less than five times during the afternoon. Both
elevens scored on their first play from scrimmage.
Following receipt of the kickofT, Duke's C!lark
raced 64 yards around left end. on the same play
which was later to pay oil in the Sugar Bowl, and
put his team ahead by a 6-0 score before the crowd
had hardly settled in its seats. Raether missed the
try for extra point. On Tech's first play, tailback
Dinky Bowen passed from midficid to wingback
Mickey Logan who made a freak catch on the
Duke 25 and ran it over. Tech converted and
was ahead 7-6, with the game not yet two minutes
old.
In the second period, Diivis fired a 25-yard scor-
ing pass to Raether, who again failed to con\ert.
to put the Dukes ahead, 12-7, at halftime. In the
third, Tech tooke the kickoff and drove 65 yards
overland, Bowen scoring from the 2, but missing
the conversion. Now trailing, 13-12, Duke came
back when Cbach Cameron rushed Ciliff Lewis,
playing for the first time since the Penn debacle,
into action.
Passing with precision, Lewis setup the winning
score by rifling a forward to Raether on the \isilors'
12. After an unsuccessful running play, tiie Ohio
speedster faded back and connected with blocking
back Bobin- Smith in the end zone to give the
Devils a 19-13 lead. Tech came back furiously,

don Carver, who with a forty-six yard kickoff re-
turn and three first downs had put Davis in position.
His second came after Cliff Lewis had passed to
Carver and then dashed deep into Gamecock ter-
ritory.
Lewis took over in the next frame and liii pay-
dirt on gallops of 15 and 23 yards before the half
ended with Duke sporting a 27-7 lead. Racther
liad converted in three out of four attempts. Jim
Hunnicutt tallied for the Gamecocks wlien lie took
a mighty sixty yard heave in the end zone from
Charley Kuldell.
In the third, South Carolina drove to the Duke
8, flashing a fine passing game that had the Blue
Devils worried; but the drive stalled, and Duke
look o\er. A partially blocked punt by the iiard
charging Blue Devils gave them the ball on the
CCaroIina seventeen in the final period. One play
later CliifT Haggerty, sub for Clarver at wingback,
raced it over on a deep reverse. Raether converted.
The game was a sellout by no means. Played
in Columljia, S. C, the contest attracted a mere
12,500 spectators. It served, however, as an ex-
cellent warm-up for the Blue Devils' forthcoming
traditional clash with North Carolina's harassed
I'ar Heels. The Duke reserves played a great part
of the game in an effort to avoid hurting any of
the mainstays which would be needed for service
against the Tar Heels.
Duke scored touchdowns when it appeared
stalled for first downs and swamped the Ciame-
cocks from whistle to whistle. The .South Caro-
lina lads, though, showed a fine passing game and
three times staged marches via air. but only in the
second period did it pay off for a lone touchdown
at the end of a 65 yard drive.

DUKE 33; CAROLINA 0
Eddie Claiiicron's liigh-riding Blue Devils juur-
neycd lo Clhapel Hill on November 25 once again
to resume hoslilities with their ancient rival, Caro-
lina. The Dukes, inasmuch as the downtrodden
Tar Heels had captured but one victory during
their campaign, were regarded as the heavy fa-
X'orite.
(!(jmbining a diversified attack with a rock-rilDbed
del'ense, Duke scored in every period to crush Gene
McEver's charges by a 33-0 score, before a spirited
crowd of 20,000 spectators. The triumi)h, of
course, gave the Devils their fourth straight win
and their second consecutive Southern Conference
chanipionslii[). Davis, Carver, and Clark led the
Devil backlicld, while Ernie Knotts and Fred
Hardison sparked the magnificent Duke line which
held Carolina to a net minus-three yards rushing.
It gave Eddie Cameron's boys a hve won and
frjur lost record for the campaign, during which
they had faced the best teams in the ((juntry. Their
schedule was acknowledged when Duke was .se-
lected to meet Alabama in the Sugar Bowl game.
Duke scored in each period and for most of the
game kept the Tar Heels backed up in their own
territory. In the last cjuarter when the Tar Heels
got a first down on the Duke one yard line, it ap-
peared the UNC team would score. But the
sturdy Blue line stopped the threat, but cold, toss-
ing Gene McEver's boys back to the six.
The game was attended by the smallest crowd
ever to see the yearly battle, and Duke's margin
of victory was the greatest since 1929, when the
Tar Heels won, 48-7.
Although the Blue Devils lost the hall iuur times
on fumbles, their alertness in intercepting passes
and covering Carolina bobbles ligured j^roniinently
in the scoring.
Driving down to tiie 7 in the fust period, Duke
sent Tom Davis across for the first score, dragging
two Tar Heels with him. The Dukes scored again
in this quarter, Carver making an amazing catch
on the goal line of a 25-yard aerial from C'lark.
Clark connected again with Carv<-r in the second
period for another tally. Duke also picked up an
automatic safety in liiis jjeriod, to make tiie eounl
21-0 at the half.
In the tiiird, Clark scored IVoni 20 yards out on
an off-tackle play. The final |)eriod saw C^liff
Lewis heave a 30-yard touchdown pass to end
Dutch Raether, who look liie ball on the H and
ran it over. UNCI threatened lo score in the third
period, but was stojjped cold !)>■ the Duke forwards.
Immediately lollowing the victory, ( loach ( uunei on

)UKE WILL MEET ALABAMA IN SUGAR BOWL
'flnks Smash Out Of Huertgen Forest To Cologne Plain
A GAME FOR THE BOOKS was the
Duke-Alabama Sugar Bowl classic, described as
the greatest in Sugar Bowl history. In it, Duke
smashed its "bowl jinx"' by nosing out the Uni-
versity of Alabama, 29-26, leaving the seventy-two
thousand spectators hoarse and limp.
Duke scored first. Almost before the fans had
finished cheering the kickoff, Clark ran 51 yards,
and then went around left end for 20 yards and a
touchdown. Raether came in and kicked the first
of his three conversions of the game.
A few minutes later, Alabama's Ralph Jones re-
covered a De\il fumble on the Duke 36. From
this point, Harry Gilmer helped march the Tide
to a touchdown. Gilmer leaped and tossed a 41-
yard pass to Jones on the Duke one-half-yard mark
and Hodges again crashed center for touchdown
number two. The conversion was unsuccessful
and Alabama led 12-7, at the end of the first period.
Gilmer, in another act of his spectacular perform-
ance, steamed a pass 48 yards to Jones on the Duke
10 and then flipped another one to the same speedy
end across the line. Gilmer, eighteen-year old
sophomore tailback, was the thorn in the side of
the Duke Eleven all the way through the game.
I
Late in the second period. Duke's ]xnverful Tom
Davis pounded over from one foot out after Cliff
Lewis' passing had trail-blazed a field-long drive.
Raether missed the extra point and the half ended
with Alabama leading 19-13.
The third quarter of this great game saw Duke,
sparked by Tom Davis, come back. Davis carried
tlie ball the length of the field in ten of eleven plays
called and plunged through from one foot to make
the score 20-19, putting the Big Blue in the lead.
But the Alabama boys were fighting a great
game. Hugh Morrow hijacked a Duke pass from
Lewis and loped 75 yards to the goal, putting the
Tide in front again, 26-20.
Duke drove to the Alabama one-foot mark again.
The Crimsons held firm for four downs. Alabama
took over and Gilmer downed the Ixill for a \ol-
untary safety, giving Duke two points and the Tide
a chance to free kick out and stave off a touchdown
threat.
The purpose of the deliberate safety backfired.
The Dukemen hadn't intended to lose this ball
game. With only a few minutes remaining, Duke
put "Bama's back to the wall and smashed through
for the pay-off tally, Clark doing the scoring. A
hair-raising incident occurred in the final few sec-
onds when .'Mabama's mighty Gilmer heaved
another scintillating true pass which was nabbed
by Jones. The whistle blew as Davis, Clark and
Company dragged him down from behind.

Duke, wc our voices raise
For all thy praises untold.
Well sing for the Blue and White.
Whose colors we unfold.
Firm stands our line of blue,
For they are loyal through and through,
Fighting with the spirit true
For the love of old D. U.
Fight— We'll fight
With all our strength and might.
Win — We can;
So here we give a hand.

rrpiacc the old I'reshinen leant and others. Mosl

school who are getting their first taste of college
football. The team's main fimetion is that of
scrimmaging the varsity by lising |)lays and ftjrma-
tions of Duke's future rivals. Losses to the varsity
arc replaced from its ranks. The Whites lost tlieir
first game to Camj) Lejeune, 6-0, but defeated
Emory and Henry, 26-6.

THINGS LOOKED grim when the
Bkic l)c\il harriers held their first practice of the
year on September 15, with no experienced men
and without Coach Ahcrne. The sun began to
shine through, however, when from the array of
Navy athletic specialists at Duke came Specialist
First Class Wilbur Canficld.
Finally, on September 30, a highly rated Marine
team paced by Chester Gibson, a former NAAU
and SAAU two mile record holder, came to Duke.
The Marines captured the first two spots, Gibson
being the winner; but the Devils took all of the
places from the third to the tenth and clinched
the victory by a score of 25-36.
The following week there was
a Quadrangular Meet at Duke
between the halves of the Caro-
lina Pre-Flight vs. Duke football
game. The four teams on hand
were: Virginia, Carolina Prc-
Flight, University of Carolina,
and Duke. The score: Pre-Flight
23, Carolina 53, Duke 80, and
Virginia 89.
The team then adjourned for
exams and vacation, and when
they met again Coach Canficld

or had joined the fleet. He rebuilt the team and
soon had them in shape for the coming meet with
N. C. State which had just defeated Carolina,
rhe meet was held between the halves of the
Duke-Wake Forest football game, and the boys
set back the favored Red Terrors by a score of 22-23.
The following week Duke did not fare too well
as it was set back by a strong team from U.N.C.
20-37. Five days later the Devils ended the season
with an even worse defeat as they bowed to Navy
at Annapolis by a score of 28-77.
The harriers final record read: two Dual Meets
won, two Dual Meets lost, and a third place in a
Quadrangular Meet.

FACIED WITH a dire shortage of
available opposition, Coach Jerry Gerard never-
theless plunged into an abbreviated soccer season
last September and came up with a Blue and White
team that won, lost, and tied in its three games
against the strongest opposition that coiilcl be
engaged in this section of the land.
Twenty-five hooter candidates greeted Gerard
the first day of drills, but of these only si.\ were
holdovers from the 1943 scjuad.
Duke dro[)ped its opener on October 4 to the
strong and more experienced French cadets of the
N. C. Pre-Flight School, 1-7. Dick Harkness
tallied the Blue Devils' only point and stood out
with Hordur Helgason in Duke's fine second half
de/cnsivc stand.
The Tri-C!olor reigned supreme when I he I'rencli
Naval Pre-Flight Cadets from Chapel Hill invaded
Duke to bowl over the Blue Devils 7-1. In this
fracas, Duke kicked oil t(; the Frenchmen, who
immediately displayed their skill at the national
sport by bringing the ball uj) the field and scoring
the initial goal on a hard kick that escaped the
Duke goalie, Levy. The next cadet threat was
turned back by Levy. Offside penalities hurt
Duke's inexperienced team more than a little bit,
and the French boys were scoring goals in cjuick
succession, never giving the Duke soccerites a
chance to recover.
Against Carolina on October 10, Helgason
scored for Duke early in the first half, and the Blue
Devils trailed their arch rivals by only one point
at half time. The Carolina hooters were held
scoreless in the second period, and in the closing
minutes Harkness pushed one through for Duke
to tie the game. Two overtime periods failed lo
break the deadlock, and the linal score showed (he
contest tied at 2-2.
Later in the season, Duke took its lone victory
of the year with a 3-2 o\-ertime win in a return
match with C!arolina.

YOU
SETTLED DOWN
SOMl'.nOVV, tlic year seemed as a
circle; and during these winter months, you were
at the very top of it. \'our worii was harder, the
days were shorter; it was ilu- most concentrated
part of the year.
But Hfe was still good. There was snow — the
campus was transformed for a few hours. With
tho.se from Florida awed and jo\fui at the llaky
bit.s of cold, you Northerners tried to look non-
chalant. But you too, were inwardly thrilled.
This beauty was a very special thing to you — it was
a part of home, bringing you back to what you
had known.
But soon, you were to know it trul>-; for you were
on your way home for Christmas vacation. You
went by Southern coach, hot, dirty and uncom-
fortable; or you were lucky and lu.xurious in a pull-
man or plane. You went to all parts of the coun-
try— to Pennsyhania, to Florida, to South Carolina,
to Michigan and Ohio; and everywhere you went
you carried a bit of Duke with you. There was
the memory of the swelling Messiah, filling the
arched aisles and vaulted ceiling of the chapel with
a crashing crescendo; the Christmas parties in your
house, and the lighted windows.
And for those of you who remained . . . you
navy men and ci\ilians who could not get home,
it was a lonely time. But it was a part of your new
world, and you could only make the best of it.
Suddenly, amid the rush of dances, sings, and
It looks like Engineering, but they're really working in
Duke Players lab.
all the unknown multitudinous activities that keep
a campus running, there was a silence. The wom-
en's examinations had arrived. Eating breakfast
was suddenly in vogue; everywhere the coeds car-
ried cram notes ... to the Toddle House for ham-
burgers, to the Union, walking down campus.
But the end came, and now there was only the
breathless wait for postcards, the taking up of sus-
pended activities, and the realization that soon the
men's February graduation would come.
Your heart was heavy for a moment as you
thought that you might never see again these whom
you had known so well; but all you c(juld do was
smile and wish them ''Godspeed.' 1 hen they
were gone; and your spring coming.

showered with pre-holiday festivities. The annual

and the Hoof and Horn production "Too Many

THINGS TO REMEMBER . . .
. . . The midnight announcement of tapping to
new Senior honorary Phi Kappa Delta, a group
which may bring the national Mortarboard to the
Duke campus.
. . . The Sunday 'night Sing directed by Allan
Bone . . . one of the best of the year.
. . . The versatile Mcilhel Ix'ing crowned Queen
of the N.R.O.T.C:. Ball in- CajMain McFeaters.
Ihe nuini)er of \'-i2"ers who concei\-ed sudden
anii)itions to Ixx'cjme Captains cannot be estimated.
. . . I'he news of the Sugar Bowl in\itation, com-
ing directly after the Carolina victory. Civilians
began to count their pennies, while Na\y men
timed up their radios.
. . . The terrors of Christmas travel. Dukesters
stood on trains and buses and were put off planes.
Fa\oritc story was told by Sally Bagley of a ci\ilian
who hitchhiked to Atlanta on two packages of
Chesterfields.
. . . The missing "Mix."
. . . Markham's exposure of the "taxi racket"
and Councilman Harris' surprise at the "gullibility"
of the students in paying cxhorbitaiil rates.
. . . Nazi prisoners working in the Union. What
more fittint; [iunisluncnt?
. . . Finally, the Sugar Bowl clash in New Or-
leans on New War's Day between the mighty
Alabama and the all-miL(hty Duke. In case of a
lapse of memory; Duke 29 — Alabama 26.
. . . The elimination of the great underpass,
where passengers periodically acquired nervous
digestion and indigestion as Skipper suddenly by-
passed an on-coming bus.
. . . The sad realization that next semester would
find Southgate and East Campus lacking in En-
gineers. Trying to bring cheer into the hearts of
the miserable Coeds, the Engineers staged a gala
weekend, ^omgiete— with torchliy,ht parade and
dai^j^v^eiore tbeit departure to the confines of

week of assinibires,^^^featuring such notables as
Robert St. John and O. L. Richardson. .\lso in-
cluded in I he jjroi^ram was a "gripe session" in
which thi- bolder members of East declared the
fallac^D&ni^B rules and reu^idations.
:]^B&n^H[ n
. . . The tears that were shed at the end of Feb-
ruary as the graduates filed out of the University
for the last time. Fhe man-power situation be-
came more acute as only a fraction of the number
that graduated was made up by incoming civilians
and R.O.T.C. East bid fond farewells to the
sjrads as they were scattered to the winds and many
decided that "Dook ain't what it used to be."

THE OFFICERS for the Women's
Pan-Hellenic Council for the year 1944-1945 were:
Bill Gordon, President; Jo Beaver, Vice President;
Nancy Baumgartner, Secretary; and Betty Jackson,
Treasurer.
The Council's main purpose this year was to
encourage a closer relationship between the sorority
and the non-sorority girls, and to alleviate con-
centrated rushing. It has striven by changing a
few of the rushing rules to make rushing less ob-
\ious to the freshmen.
I he preferential bidding system of last year was
continued and perfected. Freshman booklets to
assist the new girls in their problems concerning
sororities were given out again this year, and the
regular open houses for the freshmen were con-
ducted in the fall.
To establish its worth during wartime, the Coun-
cil has tried to work in close connection with the
COCS committee by stressing its importance on
campus. Most of the sororities have made an
hour of bandage rolling a week compulsory.
The latest undertaking of the Council, and prob-
ably one of its most vital, is the sponsoring of the
Duke 'n' Duchess Club. This organization got its
start with a recommendation from last year's Coun-
cil, and this year has developed into an active
campus organization. The chairman and her
committee are approved by the Pan-HcUenic!
Council.
Open discussion groups were held between the
sororities concerning pledge training programs and
the like, to encourage a unified feeling and an ex-
change of heljjful and new ideas.
The Council presented a one-hundred dollar
scholarship to the Junior woman having the high-
est scholastic standing in her class and a one-
hundred dollar presentation to the Alice M. Bald-
win Scholarship, to which several other organiza-
tions have contributed.

heart a sacred place. . . ." A httle place; just a
couple of rooms in a small house. Sometimes the
steps are rickety and the leaves need raking, but
the Mordecai House is always and ever the same
to those who love it.
"Joy there has flourished, Joy that fadeth not
. . ." not even in the rush of campus activities and
our Jackie trying to be on time. Joy mingled with
sadness because Tacy and Tot joined Louise as
brides and did not return. And Frankie the un-
decided this time really did leave us, as well as
Be\' and Que. Then, Peggy, the chemist, left the
day she saw fifteen new Alpha Clhis-to-be join our
ranks.
We have joy in Kindler who has showered us

our first and only Duke coed member and treasurer
of the American Listitute of Electrical Engineers;
and Cherie from New Hampshire; in Barkie who

to take her place when she graduated in February;
and in Mildred who was so busy as S.G.A. Town
Girls' President.

managed to make the budget balance and to keep
us out of debt; to Betty and her roommate C^am,

hours; to Flora, whom we claim, even though she
is kept too busy at the nursing school; to Mac who
always carries the tune for us and sings "Wishing"'
so beautifully; and to Lois, pledge captain, our
most hearty thanks, for our Children are very well
trained.
It is spring now, and the last of the seniors arc
leaving us. Lois will take up Harriet's "well, old
beans." But the sun will be shining brightly on
the little white house, for there are Bobbie Roberts,
Amy, Phyl, Lois, Cherie, and Marie to hold down
the fort as mighty seniors. Brownie will have
everyone's support, because friendship's tie is an
important factor to us. And there will be a round
dozen juniors to assist them — gay little Frenchie,
and Gloria; Janie,Jayne, and Jane (Harris, Becker,
and Hill); Dickie, and Ambrosia who wanted to
be called B. Lee.
"Alpha Chi Omega, ne'er from memory shalt
thou part. . . ." Never from our memories will
go our love, pride, and thoughts of the 1 944 pledges.
Deane and Winn individually came to us, and
Helen Franklin follows in Amy's path. Jeanne
Wilkins, Betty Jackson, Weezie Gurney, and Shirley
Keel will hold up Giles House while Trilby O'Niel,
Ann Ransom, Helen Mercner, and Jane Rowe are
constant visitors to the "Nutcracker Suite." Donna
Todd, Dolly Wilson, and Lila Magruder 'way up
campus and Mary Simjison in Aycock round out
our 1948 leaders.
"Alpha Chi Omega, wrillcn on my heart."

ALPHA EPSILON PHI
"CRACK!" There goes another base
hit . . . Yep, there's nothing hkc a good Softball
game to start the ball rolling at an A. E. Phi cabin
party. It's a sunny Sunday, and the girls are
ha\ing a big affair out at Perry's. But what would
a cabin party be without men? Just ask Janice,
who had to draw straws to decide who would be
the lucky date. Looks like Al Brown won out.
.■\nd . . . oh, wait just a minute . . . what's that
coming up the road? . . . an aminilancc? Don't
get excited. It's just Dean Lcona chauffeuring
Don. He just couldn't manage to finish the au-
topsy while at the hospital . . . Just like a Med
student !
Well, if you're wondering who the star of the
ball game is . . . you're right. "Merle girl" just
can't be exceeded when it comes to sports . . . just
ask one of the "Jones" boys.
Hey, what's going on over there? Somebody
get hurt? On, no . . . It's just one of the senior
Med students showing Joyce and Evelyn (our pre-
nicd., potential Phi Betes) how to take over in case
of a broken leg.
Seems like the game is breaking up and everyone
is going inside the cabin. Let's peek in and see
what's cookin.' ... It never fails! Bobbie Sachs is
the object of all attention. She's cracking some
more of those terrific jokes which have the reputa-
tion of enli\ening every party.
After this, dancing takes over, and Art and Blu,
who arc still "that way about each other," really
do "cut the rug." It's plenty cold outside, but
Anna Lou isn't worried. She's sitting by the fire
just "Mel"-ting.
And who's the bookworm o\-er in the corner?
Seems like Betty B. brought her books along to
study. We hope she'll make an "A" on "Art."
But what's a cabin party without food? Green
should know ... as her date brings her a fifth hot
dog . . . While Roomie Edwards takes time out for
a little after-dinner Bridge. We hope she plays
her cards right.
Help! Help! Out to the lake! Is somebody
drowning? No, but Nancy Sour just fell out of
the boat . . . However, with her swimming ability
she's sure to get to shore safely. Schimel and Rick
are Cjuick to the rescue, despite the fact that Jeannie
still has a little hango\-er from her "Larryngitis."
Is there a doctor in the crowd? Sure! Seems
like the Medical School is well represented. And
our beautiful, blond Smitty is an official Nurses'
Aide . . . And they say that the flame is still "Berne"-
ing . . . While Bennie and Bjtty A. are still the ideal
couple.
Hannah and Joe, our favorite chaperones, just
took that last roll of films. The finished pictures
will always be memories of the gala times we A. E.
Phis had.'
Naturally, the pride of our party are our new
pledges. "They're a wonderful bunch," brags
Pledge-Mother, Anna Lou. The new pledges are:
Hclene Cahn, Shirley Finkelstein, Mary Norma
Levine, Norma Lipman, Betty Lipsitz, Hazel Rog-
ers, Sarah Schwartz, and Leah June Vigodsk\'.

ALPHA PHI
SO NOW WE SIT AND DREAM
and bounce our babies on our knee,
And teach them that the alphabet begins with
Alpha Phi,
Then tell them of the good old times we had in
'forty-five,
About the girls whose memories we'll always keep
alive.
And it seems as though we are once again at an
Alpha Phi meeting . . . Exotic Dag, possessor of
the gavel in Beta Nu, dreaming up a new plot for
her next story in the Archive . . . and Maggie, sport-
ing her shiny new wedding ring, and telling us
about Harry's latest letter. How we miss pretty,
dark-haired Connie. Jan, our "Claudia," curled
up in an armchair knitting and thinking of Ralph
. . . and Vail, glad to be finishing her V-12 pro-
gram so well . . . Bets, rushing to one of her fresh-
men in distress.
In spite of a liberal spattering of Duke Players'
paint and glue, Jackson is as pretty as ever. Bob-
bie (or is it Kathrine Hepburn?) rushing in from
S.G.A. meeting . . . Corliss Archer in the flesh,
Judy, always offering her bottomless supply of
cookies and cigarettes to all . . . vivacious Meri-
wether, still trying to decide on a design for the
new "Y" key . . . sweet and smooth Joan, talking
about Vic as usual . . . "Oh, mah achin' back"
Pat and "I'll be for seein' you" Becky — babbling
on in their Florida double-talk about Jack and Bill.
And who's that in the corner polishing her Pi
K. A. Dream Girl cup? Johnny, of course. Adah
— dating Duke men and writing Annapolis weekly
. . . and from across the room floats the deep blues
voice of Susie, pure unadulterated dynamite,
threatening to "throw her little fat form out of the
window" if Peggy doesn't stop asking for study
hours . . . and Pris, who'd "give a tin tooth" to
know which of the three men in her life to choose.
Dee and Lyn still talking about their Ensigns whose
Lambda Chi and PiKap pins they wear . , . and
Nan, beaming at the very mention of Rusty — Ah
— Love 1
There's Nora, neat as always, living up to her
position on Social Standards Committee, and ever-
popular Ginny, having a hard time keeping her
dates straight . . . Mary, up in a cloud, dreaming
of David . . . Carol, keeping our newly decorated
room in order . . . slender, tender, and tall Betsey
— always ready with a witty remark . . . .-Xetna,
one of the four female Engineers, planning delicious
refreshments for our next get-together.
And how proud we are of our pledges: redheaded
Warren Blackard, Raenelle Bolick with her sparkl-
ing brown eyes, lovable Gloria Bowen, pixie-like
Joyce Godwin, Jackie Hutzler swishing her long
bob, queenly Muriel Kirtley, music-loving Polly
Kittrell, Connie Lummus — forever smiling, friend-
ly Marian Pecot, clever Sally Jim Wilhoit, and
Suzctte Wilson, sweet as they come. We know
they'll make grand Alpha Phis.
So these thoughts we croon into our babies'
ears —
Alpha Phi means friendship and love.

WE HAVE OBTAINED permis-
sion ic) reprim here excerpts from the "Daring
Delta Diary," a journal full of the inside dope on
Duke Delta Damsels. (Any resemblance between
this and the publication itself is purely miraculous
since, to be truthful, we know of no such journal).
However, let us reveal to you the vital information
of the inmates of the Delta Den or 203 Pan-Hcl.
row.
The section in Alspaugh is overflowing with
books of suggestions for trousseaus, silver patterns,
china patterns, or what every bride should know.
Dreama and Starnes, Pat and Bob, actress Bobbie
and Jack, Lockie and Bill are all '"middle-aisling
it" before long. Eugenie and Wenger manage to
keep the Tri Deltas in good health with their Med.
School interests. Familiar scenes on campus:
Harriet forever dashing off to see Charlie, and Dee
dreaming aboiU Bruce . . . Whitlock upsetting the
Sophomore slump tradition . . . That inseparable
twosome Brackney and Lehman who'll back Ohio
any time . . . Jane Matthaus sporting Navy wings
. . . C:iute wearing orchids cabled from Europe . . .
"What am I gonna do next" DuiTy trying to fit
four meetings, three quizzes, and two dances into
one day . . . Dottie, Evanizing the chapter's hair-
dos when she isn't busy with duties as Alspaugh's
president. Rumors have it that Mary Jo Taylor
has sworn off men — wonder if a sudden furlough
might break riown her resolution? To our dark-
headed beauty, Margaret Gobbel, we owe thanks
and cheers for her struggles with balancing the
budget. Shirley Davie, on the Navy program,
finds time to see Jim "every once in a while";
Down Jarvis way live four charming maidens:
Edie Helmbold trying hard to fit in her college,
career between Annapolis visits, and Libbie Stutts
who says she's studying this year. We'll never
forget pretty Midge and the gorgeous serenade the
Betas gave that certain Monday night, or petite
Ginny Brown "mothering" her transfer group.
Ask Jean any day and she'll give you five "reasons"
why the Navy is and the Army isn't. In case
things get too confusing for Elaine, we offer our
sympathies. The big question of the year seems
to be will B. A. desert Florida for a California wed-
ding?
In October we were blessed with the birth of
seventeen new Delta pledges: Jo Patten, Marjorie
Brorein, Peggy Hicks, Noretta Cuesta, and Cecile
Lee; Gay Wygal, Carolyn Bunn, Hunter Morgan,
Pat Black, Ethel Howe, Mary Sargent, Lucille
Oakes, Nancy (Bimny) Nicklas, Mary Louise W'al-
dorf. Dot Bailey, Rose Anne Jacobs, and Dot Miller.
For us 1944-45 has been a year with much mean-
ing and many memories — memories of a newly
decorated room, rush parties and crepe paper
costumes, heated meetings, smoky teas. Chapel
Hill visits, and Saturday afternoon ojDen houses.
But even more than these it has gi\en us memories
of the girls whom we ha\'e come to know and lo\'e,
in spite of, or because of, what they are.

DELTA GAMMA
ANOTHER YEAR AND AGAIN WE
close with the satisfaction oi" a successful one. Ac-
tivities have kept us busy, war work has become
our hobby and our social functions ha\e kept us
happy. We ha\e had fun, friends and sisterly lo\'e.
You've seen our pictures, now, let's introduce the
Delta G.'s to you informally.
Four prexies lead our list of seniors. Our own
president Libby, then Lee, the senior prexy (she's
Phi Bete, too) and her roommate, Harriet, who
presides o\er Pegram. Ruth, with her White
Duchy carnation and Phi Bete key, leads the Y.
Mayhcw, her right-hand man as vice president,
is in the choir loft every .Sunday while Julia draws,
her roomie, B. J., sings — an artistic combination.
Another cute twosome is Eleanor who waits with
her ring for Jim, and Ginnic, our secretary. Mary
and her beautiful horse . . . Shirley, the pledges'
mom, and her Rex.
Thea leads our juniors as vice president of that
class; Wilma, the Dutch lass . . . and Emmi from
Switzerland; Harriet and Mary Alice always have
men troubles . . . Nikki plays the field . . . but Lois
has settled for one Marine. And Trix — with her
animal stories and typewriter.
Jean Marie and Elsie wear their frat pins with
that love light in their eyes. Kitsy holds out for
the Marines, but her roomie, Mary Ellen settles
for one. Those two from Ohio, Mary and Pepper
— their P. O. box is always full. Barbara buys
6c air mail stamps. Ruth sticks to the Y and to
her "little sister" Mickey. Anne has looked them
over and Buddy is the one. Miriam and Dot . . .
they vocalize.
Adorable Terry with her wedding band. Marie
and Arkansas (no one would know her as Gath-
erine). Pat and Marian are another cute couple.
Blonde Lou is right for everything. Kass really
sinks the Titanic . . . Ann who's dating lots . . .
and pleasant Henri. Then Bobbie and glamorous
Nicky complete the roll of our dynamic A T per-
sonalities.
Nor are our pledges to be forgotten. They are:
Marie Harbour, Dorothy Miller, Ann Markin,
Marian Tiller, Theresa Nelson, Henrietta Secrest,
Emmie Colton, Gatherine Armstrong, Pat Reuter,
Muriel McDermott, Katherine Taylor, Marian
Owens, and Emily Stewman — thirteen girls to be
proud of, and thirteen campus leaders for the years
ahead.

KAPPA ALPHA THETA
THETA'S KITE HAS FLOWN
higher than ever this year. We've accomplished
great thingjs and have had a wonderful time doing
them. Religious Emphasis Week, war work, char-
ity baskets, our pledge dance, Christmas parties
and the glorious weekend at Chapel Hill as guests
of the Phi Gams have all played an important part.
We are proud of the many Thetas who have re-
ceived honors and have participated in campus
activities and all of us regret to see such a successful
year come to a close.
LInity and friendship have kept our kite soaring.
Look in and see us "in the rough." The kegs hold
lemonade, the party calls for bluejeans, the food
is a-plenty and the gals are having a big time.
What is it? It's a Theta cabin-party.
Peggy Wilkinson is performing her W.S.G.A.
duty . . . sniffing the kegs . . . Ginny Hawkins is
right behind her, sniffing for the food . . . Dot
Lewis is getting us muscle-bound in a baseball
game . . . McSwain holds out her SAE pin "less"
she loose it . . . Loring Fountain and Charlotte
Fariss are folk-dancing on the sidelines . . . Bobbie
Mill misses the ball, her mind is hatching a new term
paper ... in spite of the atmosphere Church, Otto,
and Prather look glamorous . . . M. D. shouts in her
Southern drawl, "Hit a homa" . . . Phi Bete June
McCall totals up the .score . . . Nicki Nicholl with
her even disposition is umpiring . . . ignoring the
pop bottles thrown at her . . . Kay Mayers has just
hit that "homa" . . . Genie Wimberley is studying
for Jack's quiz . . . Caroline Compton has spent
the afternoon shining her kite. Prexy Josie, shows
her barber shop technique on Crowell . . . Pretty
Pat Kelly is teaching us football tactics. Carver
style . . . Shirley is just being "clever" . . . for Pete's
sake Mary Alice, don't forget second base . . . Neon
leads us in a few Cuban cheers . . . Carolyn ^'oung
has forgotten her many activities to join her . . .
Gloria is "fleeting" to third base . . . mighty Baxter
is dreaming of sailboats . . . Donnie keeps a benev-
olent eye out for the pledges . . . Laura sings the
"St. Louis Blues" as she strikes out . . . Jean Mc.^r-
thur, Alice Cline and Betty Trask have convinced
us that we'd better eat while the food is still there.
So we'll leave the game and sideline attractions to
perform that coed custom of eating. .\nd of course
our pledges are there in all their glory. The sa-
rongs, the Wizard of Oz, and the Black Champaign
did us proud . . . eighteen wonderful girls.

There's Helen and Pat, then Pat and Jo.
To Fautz, Susanne, and Camille we lay claim —
They certainly deserve their footlight fame.
B. J.'s energy makes all of us green —
Anna Craig attempts to keep everything clean.
Moffett, Libby, Flo, Betty, and Patty have given
their talents to keep the men happy.
There are some gals still who stick to one man —
Budda, Beth, and Mary Ann.
Pat Marshall and Monkey are efficiency top —
We're with Nancy and Margie when things start
to pop.
Clair and Gay will giggle together —
'n Erin is there with things so clever.
There are two Ginny's among our crew —
Both blondes who really know what to do.
Then there's Sara (but you can call her red) —
'n Feather, who's quite the heartbreaker, 'tis said.
Now last but not least come Edie (the magazines),
Harwell (the Betas), and Betty Ann —
They're really swell girls, so give them a hand.
There you have each K. D. girl.
When you see her you will know
She has that K. D. spirit
Wherever she may go.

KAPPA KAPPA GAMMA
IN THIS WORLD of l"ratcrnit> mu-
sic, Kappa Kappa Gamma is a beautiful sympiiony.
It is based upon the waltz of easy comradeship and
'the deeper chords of true friendship. Unlocking
our gate with our golden key, we hnd the girls who
form the perfect blending of this symphony.
Our regal president Bobbie Luessenhop strikes
the major chord by exemplifying all of our high
ideals. And there's Peggy, who sings her song on
wings of gold; "Judge" Eldredge, our lovable
White Duchess Lucy, dividing her time between
COGS and the Kappa budget, and efficient Baum
who keeps our pledges on key. Gan you imagine
our symphony out of harmony because of Queen
Groome without a date, cheery Geyer with a laugh
for every situation, versatile King being too tired
from all her activities to write that Phi Delt letter,
and friendly Kitty without a special hello for ev-
eryone?
Never in discord are our juniors: dependable
Harding who flies whither she goes: Emily, our
good all-around girl, who waits patiently for Bill's
return from the Pacific; Upshaw who divides her
time between Raleigh and Chapel Hill. Insep-
arables are Jean Moore and the Med School, Sta-
thers and her Camp Butner lieutenants, Bobbie
Smith and her suits that we all envy. Especially
proud arc we of our publications girls. Who could
forget our Assistant and Coed Editors of the Ch.\n-
TiCLEER, Luessenhop and Heflfner?
The melody of our Kappa symphony is carried
by the clear notes of the Sophomores. W'ho can
forget the merry giggling of Harrell and Scars; the
efficiency of Kay; the phone calls for our vivacious
Dee; the inexhaustible energy of Chris; the V-mail
letters for our G. I. Queen Baynard; the Dresden
Doll looks of Nannette; and the stories of New
York that our witty Brim is "Philled" with. We'll
always remember Linda singing the praises of the
Phi Delts, rivaled by Twing who can't forget the
Beta's. Our music peals Mendelssohn for Crane
in June — and "Together" for our southern belles,
Patsy and Carolyn Jean.
The last notes of our symphony echo in our
minds. These were our college days — music of
our lifetime. The symphony becomes clearer
every year as Kappa continually maintains her key
place on campus. The new voices that sing our
Kappa melody are: Maggie Carter, Gene Caswell,
Marg Colvin, Mary Jane Dritt, Marge Frey, Ann
Heflfner, Nancy Hodgson, Phil Jordan, Jean Kiley,
Kay Lauer, Marty McKennon, Fran Milam, Kitty
Morrison, Helen Spelsberg, Bette Walker, Polly
Walker, and Peg Wiley.

PHI MU
YEARS FROM NOW when we look
back upon our college days, we will remember first
Phi Mu. A misty look will come into our eyes
when we think of the friendships we formed and
of our pride in Phi Mu which will endure forever.
But that misty look will soon change to a wide
grin and that grin to a hearty laugh as we remem-
ber:
'Gusta, our charming prexy, rushing to Hoof and
Horn practice; Griswold worrying over the fact
that our record collection isn't up to snuff; Alice,
Sue, Netti, and Pat singing "My Heart Tells Me"
over and over; Ginni dividing her time among
Sandals, playing the piano for every organization
on campus, making Dean's List grades, and dating
her numerous men — how does she do it? Fultz
and that "Bill" she can't forget; Sprague polishing
that Beta pin; Obie looking like what the well-
dressed woman should wear; Ebbie talking poor
Eleanor's ear off 'cause Eleanor has lost her voice
again; Peg, the chapter comic, keeping us in stitches
with her slick imitations and all-round good hu-
mor; Walker worrying about her high school brats;
Bcnnethum raving about her new in-law, brother-
in-law, of course; "Lousy," who really isn't, prov-
ing that good things come in small packages; Quinn
begging for dues; Busschaert, the smooth and so-
phisticated typical New Yorker — until you know
her; Carter expecting that at Christmas time, a
certain "Bush" will transplant itself to Philly;
Clem "Freezes" occasionally no matter what the
temperature; Wagner with that dreamy look in
her eye — wonder which one she's thinking about
now; Nancy with stars in her eyes because that
Marine came up last weekend; Will spending all
her time with Lyn, and we don't mean the Lynn
with the matching hair and jacket.
No more various personalities can be found than
that of our pledges. Our "Tina" Waggoner, cjuiet
and reserved and Lee Munn, making friends with
all who know her. Bev Weaver, whom all love
for her sweetness, and Nancy Williams, always on
the go. Helen Gordon holds up her end by work-
ing on the Chanticleer, and we predict a big
future for her. And there is Dottie Cox, our Bas-
sett girl, who is ever sincere and kind. Outstand-
ing, too is Kay Ward, president of the pledge class.
Not to be forgotten are quiet Anne and Helen,
the Jeans, Mamie and Ivy. Proud we are of all
of them.
The list of pledges includes: Ivy Baldwin, Ann
Bliss, Dottie Cox, Hena Gordon, Mamie McLaw-
horn, Lee Munn, Jean Patee, Helen Percilla, Jean
Rogers, Tcna Waggoner, Kay Ward, Bev Weaver,
and Nancy Williams.

PI BETA PHI
TIES OF EVERLASTING
FRIENDSHIP and campus service, which will be
remembered through many years to come, pro-
duced another year of Pi Phi achievement and
sisterhood for the wearers of the Wine and Blue.
These characteristics typified North Carolina Beta
in honors shared in the fields of student govern-
ment, athletics, scholarship, publications, and social
life.
With more power for coeds than in prewar days
in Publications, the Pi Phis held two of five coed
positions. Nancy Lee Laws served as Coed Editor
of the Chronicle and Mary Ann Cassady as Coed
Business Manager of the Ch.anticleer. Chi Delta
Phi elections placed Ann Succop as president of
this national honorary literary fraternity in which
Doreen Walker and Nancy Lee Laws were mem-
bers. Betty Jewell was elected to the business
manager's position on the freshman handbook.
Athletic prominence was attained by Betty Lee
Boren, W.A.A. Board representative, president of
Delta Phi Rho Alpha, Woman's College Golf
Champion, and member of Nercidian Club. Peg-
gy Taylor, president of Pegasus and Nereidian
member, and Dot Hyland Gantt, association Treas-
urer, held W.A.A. Board positions. Pi Phis Mar-
garet Taylor, Clare Lewis, and Jean Rockey were
tapped to Delta Phi Rho Alpha, national honorary
athletic fraternity. Holding three places on the
cheer leading squad Jean Rockey, Ann Smoot, and
Ellie Warren, who replaced Dot Hyland Gantt,
encouraged the Blue Devils to Sugar Bowl honors.
In student government and miscellaneous offices,
Merthel Greenwell, one of the^ Big Three on East,
was Chairman of Social Standards, Student Gov-
ernment representative, member of Phi Kappa
Delta senior honorary, and member of the War-
time Social Activities Board. Ginny Suitor as
treasurer financed the W^omen's Student Govern-
ment Association and was appointed as Chief
Commencement Marshal. Upon her selection as
Student Forum representative, Ann Succop was
designated to handle the publicity angle. Soph-
omore-honorary Sandals progressed under the
leadership of Margaret Taylor. Serving as COGS
Committee representative was Clare Lewis.
On the brighter side of chapter life, Prcxy Betty
Pine tries to keep the chapter in tow and her Phi
Delt pin where it belongs; Julia Zee making secret
plans with the Marine Captain; Hyland becoming
Mrs. R. M. Gantt, Jr. and leaving Peace and Main
wishfully thinking; our songbirds Helene, Char-
lene, and Mary Lou making the, airways; transfer
Becky Toms keeping the KAs guessing, while Mary
Ella dreams of D. E. and Shirley wonders about
time and distance: Doreen in the clouds over '
Rhine's latest discovery: Jewell secretly collecting
Phi Delt pins; Betsy Buch pining for Oscar. And
so the Pi Phis conclude another year of fun and
friendship.

SIGMA KAPPA
DEAR DIARY,
Tonight we seniors of Sigma Kappa attended
our last sorority meeting. Oh, yes, someday we
may again sit sprawled on the floor of that mem-
orable room, but then it will be as listeners, not
as active participants, then the faces will be new
ones rather than those of the girls with whom we
have had such a wonderful time for four beautiful
years. We realize that, for most of us, the best is
over. Yet, we can be happy with the knowledge
that our sorority is an organization of which to be
proud; and, along with our memories, we can
carry that pride in Sigma Kappa in our hearts
forever.
We can never forget — even if we are so foolish
as to try — Ginny, our pre.xy, merrily "turning out"
the work; Jill, bubbling over with love for all man-
kind; Earlyn always babbling about her marine
who can cook, sew, and housekeep; Gil and Mike,
the inseparable roommates, never failing to have
a smile for everybody; Peg, running around in
circles to keep up with her extra-curricular activ-
ities, yet still maintining her laudable average;
Nina, efficiently carrying out all of her many duties.
And how can we fail to remember Harriet, the
gal who first takes his ring, then his pin; Trish (?),
the darling who is always trying to think of some
way to keep a certain guy from coming up to pay
his respects; Ann, the Bahstonian who is always
with her pin-up either in fact or in fancy; Cora
Lyn, the lucky sister who is always going home
for the weekend; Betty Sue, la petite enfant who tries
to make everybody happy; Super, the girl with the
right name who is always extracting dues and fines
from us no matter where we turn; Joyce, the per-
sonality queen who is abundantly graced with the
enviable gift of gab; Kitty, the Jennie who cannot
make up her mind; Adelaide, the gal who dreams
of silver wings in the moonlight.
Nor can we ever sweep from our mind fond mem-
ories of friendly Winnie, beautiful Biff, studious
Ginny, sophisticated June, intellectual Betty, John-
ny-on-the-spot Agnes.
And then there will always be thoughts of our
new pledges of whom we are infinitely proud . . .
vivacious Jeanne Eagles . . . Jeanne Harmon, al-
ways looking for another picture of Joe . . . cute
Pat . . . gay and happy Mary . . . charming Edith
. . . flighty, funny Didi . . . Helen, whose nickname
of "Bright Eyes" fits her swell . . . Julia, who is
always fun . . . interesting Mary . . . red-haired
Robin . . . and busy Martha Jean.
And so, diary, we must close. Our sorority days
may be over, but we are not sad. We know that
the spirit, the loyalty, the tradition of oiu- grand
old sororitv will ever continue.

ZETA TALI ALPHA
MONDAY AGAIN—only a very few
prompt gals have arrived, so wc can't begin meet-
ing. Gruesome Goree's flipping a coin in the cor-
ner to decide if "'Sinatra Smith" is ""the one" or
not. Racing through Sophie's mind are all the
little track teams she's counting on. Hillman and
"Bergie" are discussing tlie latest philosophy on
moral integrity. Manahan and Wooten are com-
plaining about man-power shortage — seen later
with clifi"erent dates for dinner, movie, and dance.
Enter McCrummcn with "gum, crack, and coke."
Someone gives the Paty sisters a dirty look for
monopolizin' the Smiths and Joneses. B.J. Green
floats in with an aroma of orange blossoms — she's
joining the ranks of the enslaved with vivacious
Bea and taciturn "Johnnie." Romaine scurries
in checking her date book. Grace is placing a
bet on the Army-Navy game — guess which one
she's for? Sweet Linkins walks in with a JVashinn-
ton Post under her arm. Maxine decides she must
go 'cause "Honey, I've got dozens of quizzes to-
morrow." Nieda ^'eager just can't make up her
mind which movie to attend tomorrow. Gleesome
threesome, Cionnie, Murchison, and "Troxie" are
in the middle of the floor.
Mary Allen wistfully gazes oul of ihe window
remembering blissful niles of stud\' in the library
basement with — guess who? Ne.xt, Dameron saun-
ters in humming the theme from La Traviata — of
course, Stewart chimes in with some beautiful dis-
cordant harmony. Gould the discord be 'cause
her thoughts are with Bill, or is it just natural?
Oh, oh, gangway! Gardinal's coming down the
home stretch. Jordan has a frown on her attractive
face — she might get an A — on that History quiz.
Damtoft unobtrusively slips in. What's that old
saying about "still water runnin' deep"? Effi-
cient Marilyn is gayly swearing off" cigarettes for
the eighth time today. Next, Kit Grum with
flushed face, wearing that navy blue sweater with
the big big "D" upon it. Will it be Medical school
or matrimony for Maren Lee?
Well, well, we forgot this was the first meeting
of the month. The j^lcdges enter en masse, presi-
dent Janice Bruce leading the procession. Who
says beauty and brains don't go together? — citing
Ann Buchanan, transfer, as an example. "The
Voice" Bo)'d threatens to rival Dameron; Sweet
Dottie Dunson shyly making friends, but I'll wager
they'll be steadfast ones; Breezy Peggy Rose truck-
ing in with roommate, Mary Lou Shippey, who's
having trouble lugging around all her interne's
hardware; Frances Bird calling a second, third
and fourth for bridge; Josephine Huckabce, glam-
our personified, looking lovely as always; Joanne
Allen thoughtfully wondering what she can write
her term paper on; Little C!rum looking as if she's
going to follow in her big sister's footsteps; red-
headed Mildred Reap con\'ersing quietly with
Margaret Lawrence, another good Durham "gal";
Anne Larkin dancing with Jean Dunn, but not
for Ion"", for meetin"' must beyin now.

Council has carried on the traditions long estab-
lished at Duke. It has worked to bring mutual
benefits to Ijoth the administration and to the
seventeen fraternities now operating on campus.
The Council has endeavored to aid the fraterni-
ties to return to a normal operating basis. Through
it, the administration was approached about the
possibility of again having chapter sections and
chapter rooms. Nothing definite has been settled,
and it was decided to wait until the spring semester
before undertaking such an important move. Rush-
ing has been carried out under the new rules formed
by the last Council with great success. It has been
di.scussed whether or not rushing be limited to a
definite period as it was before the Navy program
was introduced to Duke. Because of the constant
migration cjf students, rushing has been carried on
during the entire year; and ii h;is h(<n ihc main
funclion of fraternities. II rushing were iiniiled.
the Iraternilies would have more time to concen-
trate on I lie education oi ihcir |)ledges and to or-
ganize good ciiaptcrs, r.ilhcr lii;in lo conliniiaiix
scrainbJe lor new men.
The Council has roopriMicd willi \\\<- ;i(hninis-
tralicjn in every way ptjssiblc I he hiiesl issue
has been the activities carried on ij> tin' liaternities
on "hell-night." It is hoped thai wilh the com-
bined efforts of both, these childish pranks may
be stamped out. The C'ouncil, always ready to
aid other campus organizations, backed the Hoof
and Horn Club's annual musical ];)roduction. It
also made a generous donation to the National
Tuberculosis Association.
During the coming year the social life on campus
will be one of the biggest problems to face. The
fraternities have already agreed to give their coop-
eration in trying to make the coming social events
a success. Much of the entertainment on campus
will depend upon action by the Iraternities. With
their combined efforts, througii the Council, this
l^roblem will be easily met.
Since the opportunities for new students to get
a real jjicture of Duke is hani|)ered under the Navy
i'rogram, the Council j^lans to ha\-e "smokers" at
the i)eginning of each semester whcTc the new
Duke men may become acc|uaiiilecl with the tra-
ditions of Duke and the fraternities of the campus.
At the closing of another school year, the C'oun-
cil feels that it has had another successful and effi-
cient \car. riiough restricted somewhat by the

BASKETBALL
WITH HOPES of
building another Southern Confer-
ence championship team. Coach
Jerry Gerard called for the opening
practice on November 5. His call
was answered by one of the largest
Duke turnouts in history; ninety-
eight men were out for the initial
practice, but there were only four
or five with any previous college
experience. Gordon Carver, the only returning
letterman, was still concerned with football prac-
tice.
After a few preliminary scrimmages, Coach
Gerard was able to cut the team to a reasonable
size and to get in some tense practice before the
opening game which was only two weeks away.
To add to the worries of the players, the official
schedule was released and it was tougher than any
previous Duke schedule. Featured on the card
were games with Navy, Temple, two Norfolk
teams, and Carolina Prc-Flight. These service
teams consisted of some of the best players in the
country.
The season finally got under way when Rich-
mond Army Air Base came to Duke on December
5. The Devils dropped this game by a score of
32-42. It looked bad for the bo)s in blue as they
didn't even live up to pre-season predictions. After
smoothing out some of the wrinkles, the Devils
played Clamp Butner, only to lose by a heartbreak-
ing .score of 50-49. This was a tough game to lose
as the Devils closed up an eight point defect in the
last few minutes only to have the soldiers make a
last second goal. Bob Rocllkc led Duke with a
total of 19 points.
The Devils finally broke into the win column by
clinching two straight victories over Virginia by a
score of 56-44 and Laurinburg Maxton Air Field
55-46. Roelike again led the leam in scoring in
the former game when he ripped the strings for 22
points and high total for the year. Dick Van
Schoik paced the team against Maxton Field with
I I points.
At this time, Carolina Pre-Flight stepped in and
put an end to the short win streak by setting back
the collegians, 58-43. I'-iil Sapp's 17 points were
|)ui to shame by All-American Otlo CJraham's 27.
Fighting mad, the Devils took three straight games
i)y upsetting a strong Camp Lejcune team 28-24,
Ft. Bragg 27-21, and pinning i)ack the University
of Maryland for their lirst conference victory by a
Cloach Cjerard
score of 51-24. Bill Sapp came through again
against Maryland with 1 7 points. However, as
all good things must come to an end, the three-
game winning was halted by the Carolina Pre-
Flighters this time 49-45- Bill Sapp again had his
17 points shaded by Otto Graham's 18. Tlu'
record at this time stood at five wins and four losses.
On January 13, the Devils clinched another con-
ference game when, ]3aced by the red hot Bill Sapp,
they downed Wake Forest 60-35. The following
Wednesday saw Duke square off with Norfolk
Naval Air Station, one of the top ranking teams in
the country. The Norfolk aggregation proNcd to
be too much for the Devils as they walked away
with 57-37 victory. High scorer for the night was
Duke's lanky 1^1 Kofl"enberger, who scored 19
points and held All-.\inerican Ken Carpenter to
four field gcjals.
Duke followed this defeat witii a Iriumpii ovrv
the old ri\al, (larolina, playing at Woolen Ciym
in Chapel Hill before a crowd of 2,500. 'Fhe Tar
Heels got off to an early lead but saw it dwindle
and Duke go into a 23-21 lead at half time. In
the last half several attemi)ted Carolina rallies were
halted as the Blue Devils led i)\ Bob koclike's 13
points clinched the victory 50-41. The Blue leam
again plunged from victory to defeat as they were
swamped by a smooth working Norfolk Naval
Training Station 59-37. In this game Duke held
the Sailors to a 21-25 score at the half, but the ex-
212
periencc of the na\ \ Iimiii sliowcci in ilic second
hair as they wi-iu alu-ad to win by :!J points.
Tho Ibilowinif Satuiciay the liiuc team paid a
\isii to Annapolis wIumc they iVli i)y a score of ",4-
43. Duke was not in top lorni in this game and
blew several chances to tic up the score. CJordon
Carxcr was high man witii 13 points. Back from
Annapolis, Ouke went on to win two more confer-
ence games i)y tiirasiiing North Carolina State
48-38, and Wake Forest again 75-39. Neither
team ever had a chance to threaten the big Blue.
Duke's record now stood at nine wins, seven losses
and undefeated in ti\e conference games.
On February 10, the pride of the South went
North to challenge Temple at Convention Hall.
Duke was the underdog when the game started,
and when the half rolled around they were trailing
Temple .27-24; but here they put on the pressure.
With Carver and Koflfenberger dropping in 9 and
7 points respecti\'cly, the Dukes overlook the Owls
and forged ahead to take the victory 51-46.
In a return game played for a crowd of 3,000,
Duke was upset by a determined Carolina five.
This time Duke got off to a hot start and com-
manded a 22-17 ^^^^ at half time. In the second
half they seemed to blow up and were not able to
hold down the C^arolina rally. Paced by the ac-
curate shooting of Dillon, who looped in 20 points,
the Tar Heels finally won 50-38. Duke's diminu-
tive Dan Buckley was high scorer for Duke with
14 points.
Duke sent a small squad over to Raleigh to take
on N. C. State. The Devils took the game and
ended their season with 6 conference wins against
one defeat. Sapp was high scorer for the night.
IJukc rafjturcs tiic ball
as well as for the year. Duke's total record showed
1 1 wins and 8 losses.
The point makers for the Blue Devils this year
were Ora Sapp with 198, Ed Koffenberger with
160, and Bob Roelike with a total of 126. Koffen-
berger looped in the most free throws, 46, and Saj^p
was next with 40. Duke piled up a total of H72
points against 817 for their opponents.
All in all, with the handicaps of Naval restric-
tions on the V-12 students and the N.R.O.T.C. and

Bob Roelike
turned out a better than average college team.
As a result of their record in the Southern Confer-
ence, Duke was seeded second in the tourney while
undefeated South Carolina was seeded third.
Gordon Carver and Dan Buckley came to the
fore for these battles, which paced the cagers
through a terrific tournament at Raleigh. The
bigger, stronger, and more powerful UNC five
climaxed a mad dash at the Southern Conference
title by turning back Duke's fighting team, 49-38,
in the finals of the 13th annual hardwood tourna-
ment. The White Phantoms of UNC avenged the
44-27 defeat which they had suffered last year at
the liands of the Blue Devils before a capacity
crowd of 3,500 persons. The payoff battle was
this big game when Duke met its bitter rival in
another championship clash. After a nip and
tuck first half during which time the score was tied
no less than six times at 4-4, 6-6, 9-9, ii-ii, 13-13
and 16-16, Coach Ben Carncvalc's White Phan-
toms pulled far ahead of the tired and outmanned
defending champions to win "going away" in the
last half. Great floor play by Bob Paxton and
John Allen plus the accurate shooting of long Jim
Jordan, and Manny AKarez gave the Phantoms
complete superiority after intermission. Coach
Gerry Gerard's Duke quint, playing in the finals
for the sixth straight year (third under Gerard's
direction) to set a new tournament record, was very
much in the ball game in the first half fireworks.
Although they led only twice during the entire
game, at 8-7 and 21-11, the defending champs
looked good. The UNC boys enjoyed a good
night on rebounds and play under the baskets and
overpowered the Dukemen. Carver, and Kolfcn-
bcrger were the only sjjarks of iiic in ihe Duke at-
tack after intermission. But they couldn't rally
the Blue Devils to the heights set by the winners.
Carver, only member of the 1944 all-tournament
team, poured in 13 points while KofTenbcrger col-
lected 1 1 . The final score was one point short of
Carolina's winning margin of 50-38 over Duke.
To say that this edition of the Duke basketballers
was the finest ever to represent Methodist Flats
would hardly be true. The records Ijcar out the
fact that the squads of 1942 and 1943 were much
stronger. And it would be another question of
debate to call the Forty-fivers the most spirited
quintet in Duke history. The Gerardmen of 1945
did lack many qualities of past Duke teams; but
never before, has Duke seen a basketball team rep-
resenting this school or any other, which played a
cleaner game or showed greater sportsmanship
than did the Blue I^evils of the 1945 season.

WRESTLING
THE BLUE DEVIL wrestling squad
this season won sole possession of the Southern Con-
ference and Big Fi\e championships as they regis-
tered two wins, both oyer Carolina, in hve matches.
Coach Harvey Potter's charges equalled the rec-
ord set up by any squad in the past six seasons.
Since Carolina was the only other Conference
school with a team, the double-win of the Dukesters
gave them the championship which they were
co-holders of last year.
The top men of this year's squad were Mike
Kusturis. Ralph Wickstrom, and Ben Pumpian.
Each of these three dropped only one of their en-
counters during the five meets. Jud Beck and
Dick Miller lost only two of their matches, also
turning in outstanding performances. Kusturis
came to Duke from Bucknell where he captained
the mat squad and was never defeated. The only
loss he suffered in his entire college career was at
the hand of Leatherneck Jolinny (aittiss, niiiiona!
A.A.U. runner-up last year.
In the season's opener the Blue I)c\il grunl-and-
groaners showed surprising strength in slapping a
decisive 2'^-3 defeat on the Carolina Tar Heels.
The Dukesters swept victories in all weight classes
except the unlimited. Cherry Ptjint's Marines
handed Duke their first setback by a narrow 18-14
margin. Bcjth the Devils and the Leathernecks
won four bouts, but two of the Marine wins came
via pins, which gave them a fovu--point victory.
The Tar Heels fell before the Devils by an even
more decisive score in the second meeting of the
two mat scjuads which clinched the championship
ibr Duke. The Dukesters succeeded in pinning
four of the Carolina . lads and outpointing three
others to win, 29-3. Only defeat was again in the

The last two meets of the year were wiih ihe
Cloudbustcrs of Chapel Hill Pre-Flight. The ex-
perienced V-5ers captured both of the encounters.
In ihe meet over there the Dukesters managed to
pick u[) only nine points while the flyers garnered
19. Tile difference in the tally was narrower when
the Devils wrestled at home. Final score was
again 19 for the Clloudbusters while the Dukesters
got 13. Kusturis and Bob Smith registered wins
for Duke via pins, and Pumpian decisioned his
()|)|3(jncnt.
Scjuad memlji-rs other tlian those already mem-
tioned included Walt Scott, Jack Woodall, McGin-
nis, Frank Sedwick, and Brad Cecil.
Although the Soutlu:rn Conference ha.s been
compelled to drop wrestling because of the war,
Duke is continuing the sport.

AS COACH Jack Persons commented
at the beginning of the season on the swimming
team which boasted of only six returning letter-
men: "We ha\'c everything to gain and nothing
to lose."
While the squad did not enjoy a brilliant year,
it did show surprising strength in capturing two
dual meets out of six and in going well in the Caro-
linas A.A.U. and Southeastern A.A.U. Invitational
contests. Outstanding in the ranks of the Devil-
fish this year was backstroke and freestyle artist,
Bill Adam.s. Thornton Hood and Rick Bronson
racked up many Duke points through their diving.
Opening the season against Georgia Tech, the
Devils splashed out an upset win by 36-32. The
meet was won in the hnal heat, the 400-ycl. relay,
with Bronson, Mackenzie, Xen Miller and Hoyle
Wilson swimming. The Dukesters made it two
straight when they registered a decisive 37-29 vic-
tory over (he Carolina Pre-Flight squad in the
Duke pcjol. The Devil medley relay team of Ken
Saturday, Bronson, and Blake Van Leer broke liie
pool record with a time of i :26, clipping three
seconds oflT the old mark.
The first defeat of the season came at the hands
of the Military Academy, who had not had more
than 15 points scored against (hem wlicn they met
the Dukesters. I'"inal score of this encounter was
65-10, Army. Hood placed second in diving to
set up the best Duke mark. Next on the schedule
was the Carolinas A.A.U. meet in Chapel Hill.
'J !)<■ Devils took second place behind the 1 ar Heels
of Carolina. Adams captured first place in the
400-meter free style, and Saturday and Harry
Sutton won a first in 50-meter breast stroke for
servicemen.
Carolina, with one of the top swim teams in the
country, handed Duke their second setback in dual
competition. Duke managed to capture two firsts,
in diving and in the 150 backstroke. In a return
meet with Georgia Tech the Devils failed to repeat
their earlier win and dropped a 49-26 decision.
The Dukesters took firsts in the 300 medley relay,
diving, 200 breast stroke, and 440 freestyle. Fred
Henninghausen and Adams won the last two,
respectively.
In the Southeastern A.A.U. Inxitational Duke
entered four events, winning two of them and set-
ting new records in both. Adams won the 200-
yard individual medley, setting one of the two new
|jool and Southeastern A.A.U. records. The 200-
yard freestyle relay was won by Adams, Hoyle
Wilson, Saturday, and Bronson. Tliis team set up
I he other new mark.
In their last encounter the l)c\ils dio|)pcd a ()()-
1 5 decision to the Naval Academy tankmen, taking
only one first place.
A ])ost season meet tcjok the Dukes to tioldsboro
for I lie annual .\.A.U. in which the Devils won
I luce firsts, a second and a third. Stockslager
finished iirst in the 100 backstroke; -Adams in the

YOU
RELAXED
It was spring \ou liad liisl rcali/t'd it lliat one
siiiiin ni()rniii<; wlicii you were walking' b\' Jar\'is
and siiddt'iih noticed liiat tho chcn)- tri-t's were
in hlocjni lliere. 1 1 seemed to you almost as if they
had blossomed o\er night, because you couldn't
remember having noticed them the day before. It
was the same way with other things around the
campus. Oiie day you walked touards tiie g>m
past tlie tennis courts, and e\erything was the same,
brown and bare — maybe there was a faint tinge of
color, but not enough to notice. But the next time
you walked b\', you looked up and were amazed at
the almost solid wall of purple wisteria. That was
how you first knew spring was here.
There were other ways of knowing — you knew
it was spring because you could see the grass shine
emerald green in the clear sunlight, and you could
smell the freshness of it as the lawn mower cut it
short. \'ou knew it because you stopped in front
of the Union to buy daffodils from the darkie and
you had to scjuint your eyes to shut out the glare
of the sunlight on the gleaming white steps. There
was an intensity in the cloudless blue sky when you
looked up into it — an intensity that reflected itself
in the red brick buildings, the green grass, the
white pillars. There was a diflferent feeling about
everything on campus, you couldn't help but no-
tice it.
Clco Theodorson is amused at Pi Kap intermission antics.
On Easter morning you heard the choir sing the
Hora Novissima, and as you listened, maybe you
felt it reach something deep inside of you. And
you were glad as your walked outside. You seniors
knew this was the last Easter, the last spring at
Duke. You had already begun thinking about
exams and graduation, planning for the future.
And as you saw the petals fall to the ground from
the cherry trees in front of Jarvis, and saw the wis-
taria blossoms give place to lea\'es, you realized
that the freshness of spring was turning to the ma-
turity of summer, and that another sjjring at Duke
had passed.

WITH THE MARCH SEMESTER,
the campus started off at a limp — only 645 of the
original Navy unit being left. Further curtailing
campus activities was the restriction of all but stu-
dent officers. Glad news to thCj; coeds was the
later lifting of the rule, to allow R.^ttf .C. and V-12
off restriction (jne night a week b4st<^s^the regular

cheers of "That's my Baby!" from the Bassett r<xjt-

In the fall of 1934. the Duke University Student
Branch of the American Society of Mechanical
Engineers was conceived in the minds of Professor
R. S. Wilbur, Head of the M. E. Department, and
a nucleus of students. In December, the group
was put on probationary appro\al by the national
society for a one year period. When the spring
of 1935 rolled around. Professors Wilbur and H. C.
Bird personally financed a trip to the spring meet-
ing at Knoxville, attended by four students, who
drove with Professor Wilbur. By attending this
session, the group convinced the parent .society of
its eagerness to gain approval, and accordingly in
the fall of 1935, the probation was lifted.
Objectives of the student chapters are (i) to add
to the students' acquaintance with the practical
side as well as the theoretical side of the field of
Mechanical I'Lngineering, (2) to furnish the student
with the Journal of the society, and to keep him
inlormed of the latest engineering pnjgress by mak-
ing libraries of the student branches depositories
of the society, (3) to develop the student's initiative
and ability to speak in public, and to familiarize
him with parliamentary procedmc and organiza-
lioii of learned societies, and (4) t(j enable the stu-
dent to establish fraternal contact with his fellow
classmates in engineering and to meet men en-
gaged in the at live jjracticc of Mechanical I engi-
neering.
Builders of the future— hut
not all mechanical
During 1944 the Duke chapter had 70 members,
an all-time high, which made the group the fourth
largest in the country. At present, membership
has decreased to 40, but over 100 new students in
the M. E. Department will be eligible to join during
the next month.
In May of 1944, a group of 10 students and fac-
ulty members represented Duke at the District
Group meeting, held at Johns Hopkins University
in Baltimore, Maryland. H. S. Evans. Jr., and
A. M. Alperin spoke on "Hydraulic Control for
Naval Airplane Cranes," and "Efficiency Charts,"
respectively, as Duke contestants. l-A-ans won
third prize.
Other trips during the school \car were the
visits to the Edwards Clompany of Sanford, N. C.,
airijlane parts plant and to the North Carolina
Shipbuilding Company at Wilmington, N. C.
Talks heard during the year included "The Arm-
ing and .\rmamenl of the Present Warshij)," in'
Professor R. E. Eewis and "l",leclron Tubes," by
Mr. E. K. Kraybill, both men being on the Duke
University faculty. Also Dr. Stephen P. 'I'imo-
shenko, of Stanford University, lectured on "Fa-
tigue Failure" to students and local engineers.
234
The purpose of botli
the Student Branch of
the American Institute
of Electrical Engineers
and that of the Ameri-
can Society of C'ixil
Engineers, is to aid in
developing the latent
abilities of students,
both in the curricular
field and in leadership.
This is done primarily
by affording opportu-
nities for them to carry
on activities similar to
those carried on by the
national society mem-
bers, such as the holding of meetings, presentation
and discussion of papers, and participation in in-
spection trips of engineering interest.
Both of these organizations hold regular meet-
ings, at which time speeches are given by practicing
engineers and students on material of either a tech-
nical or non-technical nature which would not
ordinarily be dealt with in the classroom.
The Duke University Student Branch of the
A.I.E.E. was organized in 1927 when Professor
Walter J. Seeley made application to the national
organization for a charter. Since that date the
branch has become increasingly active. At the
present time all of the senior students, most of the
juniors, and a gratifying number of the sophomores
are affiliated with the national organization.
During the summer semester, the officers of the
A.I.E.E. branch were George W. Wood, chairman;
Robert R. Maxwell, vice chairman: Ro\- M. Dobbs,

Upon the transfer of three of these men, the follow-
ing officers were elected: William R. McMurran,
chairman; Stewart B. Blanton, vice chairman; Ray-
mond M. Dunaiski, secretary; and Marie L. Foote,
treasurer.
The Duke Society of Cavil Engineers was formed
on October 18, 1932, for the purpose of petitioning
the American Society of Civil Engineers for a stu-
dent chapter. This petition was approved, and
on January 16, 1933, the society became officially
the Duke Student Chapter of the American Society
of Civil Engineers with George B. Cropper as chair-
man and John M. Bird as secretary.
The present officers of the A.S.C.E. are W. H.
Gardner, president; D. M. Hargett, vice president:
J. G. Browder, secretary-treasurer. Mr. H. W.

SANDALS, the sophomore honorary
society whose objectives closely resemble those of
B.O.S. on West Campus, continued its record of
service to the college community this year. Founded
by the W.S.G.A. of Duke University in 1932, it has
since become one of the outstanding organizations
on East Campus. As a progressive group. Sandals
has fulfilled its purposes and motto of Service and
Friendship.
The twenty women who compose Sandals are
chosen by the Executive Council of the W.S.G.A.,
with the recommendations of House Counselors,
Mrs. W. S. Persons, and the presidents of organi-
zations on campus. Selected at the end of their
Freshman year at a very impressive tapping cere-
mony in the Women's College Auditorium, they
are girls who have manifested high qualities of
scholarshij), leadership, character, and service.
Their ajjpointmcnt not only results in the honor
and reward for past accomplishments, but also in
the |)lcdge for future service to the college.
Duties of Sandals, assumed during Freshmen
Week, include assisting new girls and their parents,
helping with registration, and proeloring place-
ment exams. Following this, the major responsi-
bilities of the Sandals are to serve as hostesses in
the Ark, to take attendance at Student (Joverii-
mcnt meetings, and to .serve as an intermediary
between the Student Govcrninciii Coiiiu ii and liic
Student liody.
During the year, the Sandals suixTviscd liie Ark

games, sponsored an open house for freshmen girls,
and cooperated with B.O.S. in an annual dance,
which was given in the gym. It was an informal
dance and due to student cooperation, was \ery
successful. B.O.S. added to the affair wilii their
tapping ceremonv. Sandals also assisted the Wom-
en's Student Government by taking attendance at
their niunthiy assemblies. They had ihrir fare-
well party in March, which was a bancjuet at the
hotel, and in a few weeks the new Sandals were
elected. They also assisted socially b\- hi)lding a
Sandals-Student Government banciuet in iionor of
the new members of both organizations. Their
])rin(ipal project has been the redeeoration of tiie
Ark, a successful altem]5t to cope with the wartime
demands placed on student recreation.

. . . Potential Phi Beta Kappa
IN 1937, the honorary society of IVV
was founded to stimulate intellectual curiosity
among freshmen women of Duke Unixersity and
to encourage them to value the gaining of knowl-
edge above a desire merely to earn C|ualit\' points.
IVY is proud of a history which proves that its
fundamental purposes have been fulfilled b\- its
members, who will always possess a better imder-
standing of what true education means.
To be eligible for membership in \\\, a fresh-
man must have a scholastic average of 2.25 quality
points for e\ery semester hour carried din-ing her
first semester or for iter entire fresiinian year. In
the spring of each year new members are tai)|)ed
into IV^' and, after initiation, assume the responsi-
bilities of the organization. From the class of 1947,
twenty freshmen were awarded the IVY leaf in
February, and in the fall of 1944, seven additio'nal
women qualified for membership.
Although IVY is essentially an honorary society,
it has assumed the duty of marshaling at formal
functions of the Women's College. The charac-
teristic dress of the members on these occasions is
white with green silk regalia. The principal .social
functions of IVY during the year are two jjarties,
one in the spring for the second semester B-average
freshmen and one in the fall semester for the B-
average freshmen of the succeeding class. The
purpose of these functions is to encourage the fresh-
men to complete the requirements for initiation
into IVY.
The public recognition of those who ha\c at-
tained an IVY average is the tap|)ing service held
during the spring, at which lime an ivy leaf, syin-
bulizing strength and wisdom, is conferred upon
those called to IVY. This same theme of the ivy
leaf is repeated in the gold key worn by each mem-
ber, which testifies tiiat she has achieved one of the
highest honors tjf her iMcshman Class.
In the words of the initiation ceremony: "Ivy
strives to stimulate intellectual curiosity in fresh-
men women and to foster a well-rounded person-
ality. In atuiining this goal, it urges each member
to \'alue the gaining of knowledge and the building
of character above the mere earning of grades."
So each girl may know when she is tapped that
she is honored truh'.
The officers of IVY for this year were Mary Jo
Taylor, president; Marjorie .Ann Clute, vice pres-
ident; Elizabeth Orinond, secretary; Elizabeth
Stutts, treasurer; and Mary Elizabeth Walters,
reporter. Mrs. W. .S. Persons ser\'ed as the IVY
adviser and consultant.

ENGINEER'S SGA

DURING the past year, the Engi-
neering Student Government Association was more
active than in the preceding year, with two engi-
neers' balls being sponsored. Milestones of the
year included the installation of Pi Tau Sigma, the
founding of the Order of Saint Pat, and permanent
representation of the College of Engineering on
the University Publications Clouncil. However,
the most important change of the year was the
mass exodus on the first of March of all the Engi-
neering students from Southgate and Epworth to
dormitories on the West Campus.
It was with this in mind that the engineers de-
cided to make the weekend of February 2-3, a mem-
orable occasion^ — and they did ! The first night
was filled with a torchlight parade of all the engi-
neers, the tapping of the charter members of the
Order of Saint Pat, and the crowning of Blake W.
Van Leer as Saint Pat. The following evening the
first Saint Pat's Bail was iidd in the Women's
College Gymnasium.
Gratifying to the Engineers was the sendofT
staged for them by the coeds on East, where the
girls obtained the famed Engineers torches and
marched down campus to serenade Southgate.
Also appreciated were the letters written the Pres-
ident of the E.S.G.A., Blake Van Leer, from the
. . . who rule the ''shack''
heads of the Coed organizations, wishing the group
well in their life on West Campus.
The officers of the E.S.G.A. for the July-Novem-
ber semester were Bill Freeze, president; Ed Suhl-
ing, vice president; Ed Johnson, secretary-treasurer;
Ralph Schneider, Navy representative; Jim Artley,
Marine representative; and Gil Brandon, civilian
representative. After the graduation of these men
in October, the following were elected to the
E.S.G.A.: Blake Van Leer, president; Nick Ciard-
ner, vice president; Coolidge Elkins, secretary-
treasurer; John Dixon and D. M. Hargctt, Navy
representatives; E. D. Williams, N.R.O.T.C. rep-
resentative; and Dick Doyle, civilian representative.
Following the graduation of Blake Van Leer in
February, James Kelly became president.
Although the coming year may witness many
more changes in I lie E.S.G.A., the engineering
students intend lo make certain that the engineer-
ing spirit and traditions will li\c on. To this end,
plans are being ibrmulaled for more open houses
as well as for the Engineers' Ball.

THE STUDENT GOVERNMENT,
as organized, was the most powerful group on the
Men's campus. It was set uj^ in ig2J to demo-
cratize college Hie in keeping with oiu" national
traditions. Under its jurisdiction came all student
groups and ihe keeping of standards of cooperation
and citizenship among the members of the college
community, by its powers of recommendation.
Its membership has formerly been according to
classes, but with the coming of the war and the
setting up the \'-i2 unit at Duke, it was decided
impractical to continue this form of representation.
Therefore, the association was made up of one
member of the V-r2, one member of the N.R.O.-
T.C., one civilian, and three executi\c officers.
These men were elected by a preferential ballot,
and all were nominated by a nominating board,
consisting of the Presidents of the Student Govern-
ment Association, ODK, the Men's Pan-Hellenic
Ciouncil, as well as the Clhairman of the War Stu-
dent Activities Board, the Editor of the Chronicli\
and Deans Herring and Manchester. With the
decrease of the V-12 unit in March, and the greater
number of N.R.O.T.C., the latter group was not
receiving as much representation as it warranted.
The Student Government looked forward to reme-
dying this situation at the next election.
the force in PVest Campus ajjairs
Because the campus is primarily under Navy
discipline, the student government is necessarily
less important than it was before the war. How-
ever, it continued to encourage participation in
extra-curricular acli\itics and sponsored .some
social activities. In the fall, it s[)onsorecl one of
the greatly needed dances, and in January, show^ed
mo\ies of the 1 )uke-.\labarha Sugar Bowl game.
Two elections were held during the year. Offi-
cers after the first election were: President, Walt
Ross; Vice President, Will McCreight; Secretary-
Treasurer, Bob Weaver; V-12 Rcprcsentati\c,
William Higginbolhom and "Deacon" Burg;
N.R.O.T.C. Representative, Ernie Knotts; Civilian
Representative, Norm Garrett. With the de-
parture of Walt Ross, Will McCreight mo\ecl up
into the presidency.
.Second semester officers were: President, Chuck
Tichenor; Vice President, Ernie Knotts; Secretary-
Treasurer, Ray Jordan; V-12 Representative War-
ren Nordin; N.R.O.T.C. Representative, Glen
Smith; and Civilian Representative Jay .Swartz-

PROGRESS in general is something
intangible, aljstract, yet sometimes its effect can be
shown in certain concrete evidences. This year
the Women's Student Government Association has
tried not only to perform the usual duties and re-
sponsibilities expected of it, but it also has tried to
work ahead and to bring about changes that wall
make Duke better loved and mcjre honored by the
students. The student council represents the stu-
dents, and it is for the students that it has func-
tioned, aiming for the good of the individual as well
as for the university as a whole, trying to get an
active feeling of unity and progress throughout the
campus.
1 lie siudcnl government has ironed out quite a
number of min(;r rulings which have seemed petty
hindrances to the freedom of the students that insti-
gates a loyalty to the university. The council has
focused its main attention, however, on larger proj-
ects that have proven to be ste])s taken in the right
direction of ])rogrcss. For instance, the college
handbook was revised, and a system for the selec-
tion of cchtors and staff" was started, aiming for a
clearer and mote intelligent handbook to represent
the university throughout the country. Another
undertaking was a revision of imv ccmstilution,
creating a more concise and clear cut foundation
for the woman student. The largest project of this
year was the student government week held in the
. . . Vital training ground of self
government — for progress and
liberty.
early spring. This week was tinned o\'er to a
series of lectures, panels, and discussions — all in
order to create an interest on the part of the stu-
dents towards different aspects of government.
One of the most important outcomes from this
student government week was an exchange of
thoughts between representatives of different col-
leges invited to attend, resulting in various new
ideas of improvements for this campus. The week
also served to bring about a more luiilied feeling of
cooperation among the various organizations on
campus.
As we all realize, the responsibility for maintain-
ing a Duke spirit has shifted almost completely to
the East cami:)us. For the i)oys, Duke is mainly an
intermediate landing, but for the girls, Duke is an
integral part of oiu' lives. This being the case, it
is up to the woman student to keep u|) a spirit and
interest in the cam[)us, and, most important, to
make il gone. The student government has tried
in many ways, large and small, to make that ideal-
istic dream become a reality, so that e\'ery girl on
this campus will feel as if she herself is able to help
impro\e a feeling of cooperation, honor, and loyalty
here at Duke — and that is jirogress.

THE STUDENT COUNCIL is made up of girls
from representative nursing groups, consisting of
the elected President, Vice President, secretary,
treasurer, the chairmen from the two houses, the
Chairman of Social Standards, two representatives
from each class, and two members from the pub-
lications.
These girls meet with' the whole student body
on the first Monday of each month to discuss stu-
dent affairs and transact business. The Council
itself meets every week, where it considers means
of improving the campus activities and reviews
disciplinary cases. Each case is considered on its
own merits, although the previous record of the
girl is considered, and other similar cases are taken
into consideration. There is no set penalty, al-
though there are two general categories of enforce-
ment of the house and campus rules. These are a
campus in uniform and social restriction. The
first prevents the girl from going anywhere except
where she can go in uniform — which means the
Hospital and the Nurse's Home. The second gives
her freedom until eight o'clock each night.
Because there is no house committee system, the
council must consider the smaller details of group
life, such as cases of lateness and too many late
leaves. The two House Chairmen on the Council
give the House Councilors an opportimity to pre-
sent any complaints they may have directly to the
Association. In the case of a serious offense, the
group may have a call meeting.
The Student Council, then, takes care of all of-
fenses that do not come under the honor system.
This is administered by the Honor Council which
is a separate group, except for the membership of
the President of the Student Council.
Through the Chairman of the Social Standards,
the group sponsors social activities for all meml)ers
of the nursing school. This year, there has been
an Open House, a Sing, and picnics.

BETA OMEGA SIGMA, national
honorary sophomore leadership fraternity, was
founded at Trinity College in 1917. This year,
in answer to numerous rumors that B.O.S. had
died and was no longer active on campus, the
newly initiated members, who were tapped at the
Y Cabin Party prom in November, formulated and
carried through plans that put BXJ.S. back in its
rightful |)osition as the goal all Duke freshmen stri\'e
for.
The principle objective of this organization is to
recognize outstanding freshmen for their leader-
ship ability and their interest shown in <xtra-cur-
ricular activities on the campus. One of its well-
known functions is that of regulating freshman
discipline and freshmen class members in regard to
campus traditions. Despite the lack of cooperation
on the part of many upperclassmen, B.O.S. has
made encouraging attempts to form a compact
group out of its scattered component parts. Dur-
ing I'Veshmen Week B.O.S. performed its usual
task of helping the YMCA in aiding the incoming
freshmen to orientate themscK'es. Then (he mem-
bers of the organization began the endless task of
seeing that the new freshmen obey the rules which
traditionally govern their conduct.
Where the eampiis may recognize
extra ciirricular ivorkers.
The 1944 homecoming, a celebration which for
years has been traditionally in the hands of the
B.O.S., had to be limited somewhat this year due
to wartime restrictions, but B.O.S. with the aid of
both freshmen and upperclassmen still made it a
great occasion.
The second semester was well under way this
year when, on March 12, B.O.S. together with
Sandals, East (!ampus sophomore honorary society,
sponsored their annual dance, at which new mem-
bers were tapped. Each year thirty new members
are picked on the basis of points given for partici-
pation in various activities and organizations. I'hc
organization has striven to eliminate campus poli-
tics completely from the election of members. The
new officers for this year included Bob nemolt as
president, Vahe Simidian as vice president, Myrlon
Galling as secretary, and Walter Ross as treasurer.
With the installation of new oOicers and the
enthusiasm that was brought b\' llu- new members,
it was hoped that B.O.S. might prove itself a more
vital organization iliaii it was prexiousl)-.

THE GREATEST triumph of Plii
Eta Sigma this year has been its continuance. It
is sometime cUfficult for the observer to realize the
obstacles with which such a group must cope. For
example, when the old memlDcrs were ready to
initiate and had scheduled a bancjuet, it was only
to discover that the Navy men were faced with a
navigation test the next day; and that there would
be a payline lliat night, forcing an early adjourn-
ment.
However, the group continued to recognize fresh-
men scholastic ability, although of necessity, its
acti\'ities were curtailed. In former years, the
group presented a scholarship placiue to the fresh-
man house averaging the greatest number of cjual-
ity points per man. This recognition was discon-
tinued with the advent of the V-12 program, as the
grou|D was no longer housed in dormitories as a
class. A cup was also presented to the fraternity
pledge group with the greatest average increase in
quality points. These honors should not be foi-
gotten by the campus, for they will be reinstitutcd
after the war and serve again as an incentive to
raise the scholastic standards of the campus.
Other than these awards, the group has never
been greatly active as some of the more social or-
ganizations, but men are always anxious to attain
membership because of the honorary position it
holds on the campus. Its scholastic requirements
are an average of 2.25 quality points per semester
hour. This average must b" m;untained for an
entire semester.
The annual bancjuet was held on February i,
following whicli. the faculty acKiser Dean Alan K.
Manchester and Dr. .Mbert C. Outler of the Di-
\init\' School addressed the group on the necessity
in war, even more than in peace, of providing a
truly liberal education lor the college graduate.
Initiated were: John Boeckel, Dick Bowles, John
Bullard, Lachlan Campbell, Bill Chears, Tom

Tom Shea, Marshall Spears, David Taylor, Ralph
Vining, and Ralph Veals.
Membership in Phi Eta Sigma gives the freshmen
who have attained this high scholastic average a
little of the public acclaim which is due them for
work well clone.

THE ALPHA CHAPTER of Sigma
Delia Pi, National Spanish honorary society, was
chartered at the University of California at Berkley
in 1919. The present Duke Chapter, Alpha Theta,
was organized eight years ago, as the thirty-second
chapter.
Membership in the fraternity is only granted to
students wiio have an average of 2.0 C|uaiity points
per semester hours through their tliird year college
Spanish, and a general scholastic average of 1.5
quality points in all subjects taken to date. A
most important qualification is that members
elected have an active enthusiasm for things His-
panic. Membership, therefore, is open not only
to sludeiits-in-coursc but also to scholars recog-
nized as earnestly interested supporters of nis|)anic
culture.
The purposes of llic fraternity are to foment a
wider knowledge of and a greater love for the His-
panic e(jnlrii)utions to modern culture; to stimulate
a greater interest therein on tin- jKiit of studenls at
Duke University; to foster friendly relations and
the cooperative spirit between the nations of His-
panic speech and of English speech; and to reward
those who show special attainments and interests.
Meetings are held on the a\'er;ige of two a month,
one as an open hou.se for interested studenls, the
other an informal fralcriiilv ;ill;iir in wiiicii the

THE PURPOSE of the Pre-Medical
Society is to serve as a cooperative center of intelli-
gent pre-medical students and the facuhies of botli
undergraduate and medical schools; to develop
among the pre-medical students an ever-increasing
sense of the high standards of character and re-
sponsibility embodied in the medical profession;
and to stimulate within the minds of the pre-medical
students the correlation of a general cultural back-
ground with the more specific pre-medical training.
These aims were carried out through bi-monthly
meetings at which lectures were presented by doc-
tors from Duke Hospital. The topics ranged from
psychology to the general administration of the
hospital. These lectures had a double purpose:
to inform the students and to connect them with
the Hospital — as well as to offer them assistance
from it.
Two banquets were held at which certificates
were presented to new members and at which the
old and new members might become acquanited.
At the first meeting, a lecture was given on anat-
omy, with technicolor movies and at the later ban-
quet in January, there was a lecture on tropical
diseases, illustrated with slides. The membership
after this initiation was incrcasc^d to approximately
seventy-iive.
In spite of the fact that the group stresses the
technical preparation for a medical career, the
social side was not neglected. During a summer,
a cabin party was held; and in the fall, the society
sponsored an open house in the Union Ballroom
to which all pre-medical students were invited.
After each meeting, also, there is a brief get-to-
gether, where refreshments are ser\-ed, and the
members get better acquainted.
One of the highlights of the year was a discussion
by Dr. Trapp of the Duke Navy Department, of
Navy hospitals on the Samoan Islands. He showed
colored slides, and the group was able to examine
his various souvenirs.
Though many in the grouj) will not Ijc alile or
interested enough to continue through Medical
School, and though they may not specifically use
the information that they have gained through the
group discussions, tours, and lectures, it will always
be valuable to them.
The officers who led the group first semester
were: Ralph Hudson, President; Nina Mussleman,
C>orrcsponding Secretary: Carole Schuran, Re-
cording Secretary; and Ernest Page, Treasurer.
Those elected second semester were Warren Nor-
din. President; Ben Boyd, Vice President; Joe
Houc, Corresponding Secretary; Gerrie McCartcy,
Recording Secretary; and Ernest Page, Treasurer,

WITH PLANS being made for a
new chapter at Northwestern, Tau Psi Omega,
national honorary French fraternity, finished anoth-
er successful year. Founded at Duke in 1938, the
fraternity has been rapidly growing and now in-
cludes chapters at the University of North Carolina
and the Woman's College at Greensboro.
The aim of the fraternity is to further interest in
the language and culture of France and to provide
a means whereby students interested in speaking
French may have the opportunity to do so. Re-
quirements for initiation into the fraternity are a
year of college French or the equivalent with a B
average or better and the ability to speak the lan-
guage. There are two initiations a year and many
open houses to which non-members are invited.
The regular meetings, business and social, are held
bi-weekly throughout the year.
Despite the fact that the war has greatly lessened
the number of men in liic fraternity, the activities
of the group have gone on comparatively unim-
paired. The annual dramatic production in l''icnch,
however, has been discontinued until afh r ihc war.
Also, this is the first year lli.il ilic Iralcrniiy has liad
a woman as president.
The highlight of the fill iii 111 was a picnic gi\cn
by the fraternity for llx' I'rrnch Na\'al Air Cadets
at Chapt'l Hill. lliey had recently come from
North Africa and, speaking litth- or no i",nglish,
were glaf! of an oi)poriiuiily to meet French-speak-
7/ ))icet oil the Rue ac ui
\iiA\
Pi
ing Americans. It was also an opportunity for
the members of the fraternity to improve their
ability to speak French, as well as to further Franco-
American relations.
Another successful activity was an old-elothes
drive for the French War Relief. I'hcsc clothes,
most of them given by Duke students, were col-
lected in all the dormitories and sent to the French
War Relief in New York City where they were
reconditioned before shipinent to France.
Tau Psi Omega remained active throughout the
summer as well. Members of the fraternity at-
tended a Bastille Day party on Jul\ 14, at the
U. S. O., having as their guests, French Naval
Air Cadets.
With its program of expansion and ils a(ti\ily
on the campus, 'Fau Psi Omega continues to j^ro-
motc interest in France — the nation, the people,
and the language.
Onicers of the year are: President, Bobbie Ram-
sey; Vice President, June McCall; Secretary, Amy
Franklin; and Treasurer, Dreama Bottoms. Mr.
and Mrs. Neal Dow of liic Romance Language

"Education makes a people easy to lead, but

— Lord Broupham.
KAPPA DELTA PI, an active hon-
orary fraternity in the field of education, has ;is
one of its purposes the aim of producing teachers
who are interested in the welfare and well-being
of the nation and of the individual people who
make ujd the citizenry. The ideals and high stand-
ards maintained by this organization have a vast
influence on the whole teaching profession.
The first chapter was founded at the Universit)-
of Illinois, June 8, 191 1, with members chosen on
the basis of general scholarship and work in the
educational field. There are now 131 active chap-
ters in the schools and colleges of the United States.
Alpha Tau chapter was installed at Duke on May
29> 1927-
The fraternity key is a gold scroll bearing the
emblem of the bee-hive and the Greek letters K A II.
The colors are jade and violet. The national pub-
lication is The Educational Forum, a magazine con-
taining articles on subjects of current interest in
the field of education written by contemporary
experts.
Once a month, an evening ljusiness-|jr(jgraiii
meeting is held; and, once a niontli, a luncheon.
The former are often held in the homes of local
professors. These two monthly meetings are de-
signed to establish closer contact between the Uni-
versity professors and the students, to bring cunent
problems to the attention of those who will soon
be called upon to handle them, to discu.ss and ex-
change ideas, to learn more about the profession
itself, and to form a close bond of friendship amcjng
members of the fraternity.
The programs always have an entertaining, yet
practical and informati\'e, flavor. During this
year, quizzes, round-tables, forums, and I. Q.
tests have been program themes. The luncheon
meetings are informal stxial gatherings.
Since many of the girls are already doing their
practice teaching in the Durham schools, there are
many practical Cjuestions which come up for dis-
cussion in the monthly meetings. Because teach-
ing is such an important profession in that it is one
of the most lormati\(- influences in a child's life,
the organization feels that it is performing a very
important service in advising those who will be
the teachers of the future.
Aided by the enthusiasm of the individual club
members and the excellent leadership of the officers,
the club has had a most successful year. Officers
for 1944-45 include; Marie Chrisiodoulou, pres-
ident; Agnes Long, vice president; Virginia Moore,
secretary; Shirley Beckert, treasurer; and Dr. J. VV.
Carr, II, adviser.

CHI DELTA PHL national honorary
literary society for women, was founded at the
University of Tennessee in 191 9. In 1922, the
women of Trinity College felt the need of an or-
ganization similar to the men's literary groups,
and the Zeta Chapter of Chi Delta Phi was estab-
lished on the Duke campus. Its aims are to en-
courage interest in literature and participation in
the different fields of writing — poetry, the short
story, essays — and to provide recognition of those
girls whose interest in literature and whose creative
work has been outstanding. Above all, its pur-
pose is to be an organization where girls can meet
with others so interested, talk over mutual prob-
lems, and profit by friendly criticism of their work.
Zeta's methods of accomplisiiing these aims
change with the years, but the underlying purpose
remains the same. This year's program includes
our traditional informal discussion meetings, and
increased participation in ilu- national program
through contributions to our national magazine.
the annual Prose and Poetry contest, and to all
campus publications. In addition, we plan to
widen our campus interests I>y emjjhasizing jiKir-
nalism, heretofore somewhat neglected, and to ix-
come jjetter acquainted with the ouisiaiiding figures
in our English department.
Belter to incorpcjrale join iialism and (ainpus
publications, the new policy is to invite girls who
arc outstanding, though not necessarily creative
those ivho spin words
and who are interested, enthusiastic leaders in
campus literary groups.
Members are not required to submit any of their
prose or poetry; but the organization seeks to en-
courage such production. When a member lias
wrillen an)linng that seems especially vvorliiwhile.
she is invited to read it to the rest of the group.
If the piece is considered expert enough, it is sub-
mitted to the group's national magazine — or to
one of its contests.
The adviser is Mrs. White of the Englisii De-
partment; and though she is not able lo attend all
of the meetings, she remains as a stimulating in-
fluence to the group. One meeting a year is
usually held at her home.
Officers for this year were Ann Succop and
Beatrix (Jross, presidents; Helen Kindlcr, \ice
prisidciit; Vi\'i (Collins, secretary; and Carol Phipps,
treasurer.
New members, elected on the basis of oulstaiid-

they made the grades.
ORIGINATING near the end of the
last century, 9019 is the local honorary scholarship
fraternity which recognizes students with outstand-
ing scholastic records diu-ing their first two years
of college. It is tlie oldest lionorary society in
existence at Duke.
Many of 9019's activities have been taken over
by other campus organizations. Though social
fraternities were banned at old Trinity College,
the social acti\"ities of 9019 played a large part in
inducing the administration to permit them to
return.
In recent years, the society has been primariK
interested in encouraging higher standards of schol-
arship, and the requirements for membership are
the same as for Phi Beta Kappa. 9019 recognizes
the same students in their junior year who normally
make Phi Beta Kappa when they arc seniors.
Though its functions and activities have been
curtailed by wartime conditions on the campus,
the society hopes to resume after the war many of
its prewar projects. Among these were the spon-
sorship of debate tournaments, literary contests,
open forum discussions with celebrated speakers,
and betterment of student-faculty relations.
Because these projects were largely impossible
when Duke first went on a wartime acceleration,
and because the draft called a large number of
members in 1942-43, the society remained com-
pletely inactive during the following year. Last
year, however, S.G.A. president Gordon Carver
took the initiative in reviving a number of campus
honorary societies which had temporarily dis-
banded. In the absence of any old student mem-
bers, a faculty group who as students had been
9019 members elected 20 qualified students and
initiated them in June 1944. These men were
Carver, Ed Bennett, Dick Doyle, Bill Gurganus,
Dick Harkncss, Bob Kibler, Edgar McCanless,
Harry McPherson, Charlie Markham, Bolj Mar-
tinelli, Bob Rickert, Norman Silver, Dick Stein,
Clharles Terry, L. \. Waggoner, I. C. Walker, Joe
Waters, Johnson Walts, Don Williams and Glenn
Young.
Officers elected were Charlie Markham, pres-
ident; Joe Waters, vice president; Bo!) Rickert,
secretary; and I. C. Walker, treasurer.
The revived society tapped a new group of neo-
phytes in January, .supplementing the membership
with 15 more men: Lewis Branscomb, Wiimer
Betts, Bob Atkins, Walter Scott, Ray Jordan, Je-
rome Javer, Zach Simpson, John Imhoff, Carl
Wealherly, Ralph Hudson, Joe Frisch, William
McCall, Ernest Page, Josepii King, and Ralpii
Jacobs.

TO MEET THE MEN at Duke who

Navy together in a united crew to aid new fleet
men at Duke in their orientation, to help main-
tain and bolster school spirit through its coopera-
tion with other organizations, and to give its mem-
bers many varied outlets in the social channels.
Each semester brings forth a new grouj) of men
to handle the helm of the Fleet Club. The hon-
orary oflicers of this organization, have seen this
group change hands three times during their faith-
ful service. Lt. (j.g.) Redding is Honorary Skip-
per, Chief (sp.) J. (). (iant is Honorary Exeeuii\'r,
and Dean Alan K. Manchester is adviser. Ihc

handed it over to Eddie Tilly. The E.\ecutive
role was played first by Bud Peterson until Bob
Dunaiski took over, only to be reelected to another
tour of duty. Schuler, Coulter, and Necse served
as minute men of the club until an official pay-
master, and Evans, and "two-term" Ferryman
lilled the shoes of the ship's writer.
The club was organized in 1944, ami ilu- con-
stitution was drawn up and adopted shortly after-

//?(' Commauders of tomorroic
THE COMMODORES' Club, social
organization for the members of the Naval Reserve
Officers' Training Corps, has seen its social pro-
gram become even more active with its ever-in-
creasing membership. Because of the expansion of
the N.R.O.T.C. Unit at Duke University the Com-
modores' Club has taken a place of prominence
on the campus.
Officers for tiic fall semester were: President,
H. R. Peterson; Vice President, G. L. Haines;
Treasurer, J. R. Huntley; Secretary, R. R. Hark-
ness; Social Chairman, D. L. White. These men,
all first classmen, were replaced prior to graduating
by the new officers — President, R. E. Lent; Vice
President, R. M. Aitkins; Treasurer. VV. M. Eaton;
Secretary, J. E. LaRue.
The summer and fall semesters saw the picnic
party and supper at Duke Park; the melon party
and baseball game between the upper and lower
classmen at the University ball park; the combined
Fleet C:iub and Commodores' Club Na\al Dance;
and in December, the Annual N.R.O.T.C. Ball.
This Annual Ball, at which Merthel Grecnwcll
was crowned N.R.O.T.C. Queen, was the social
event which highlighted the season.
Tlie February graduating class saw the carrying
out of the Commodores' Club tradition of present-
ing new ensign bars to the senior classmen. This
look i)lace at the Stag Banriuct at the Washington
Duke Hotel where the entire N.R.O.T.C. com-
plement, the station force and officers attended,
and wliere 72 men recei\-ed their ensign bars. .Spe-
cial guests were visiting Captains from Washing-
ton, Capt. Adams, and Capt. Durden; guest speak-
er was Dr. Malcolm McDcrmolt of the Duke Law
School. Now that the end of the long grind was
over, there was regret in leaving.

STUDENT
FORUM
they ki'i'p US informed.
WITH AN ORIGIN marked by the
initiati\e of two enthusiastic girls who saw a cam-
pus need, the Student Forum has, in its thirteen
years of existence, raised itself to a position which
commands interest and attention from the entire
student body. Founded as a means for bringing
outstanding speakers to the college community and
providing it, thereby, with an additional source of
cultural and intellectual achancement, the com-
mittee soon became one of the outstanding senior
honoraries.
The work of the group necessarily demands a
considerable income, but this is provided by the
students themselves. A charge is made at the
beginning of the year which supplies the fund with
which all expenses must be met. In the past, the
policy of charging the members of the audience
who did not belong to the college was followed.
However, this year, a precedent was set which
answers the original intention of the founders of
the group: the speakers were paid for by the com-
mittee alone, and the lectures were open to the
public.
The contacts made by the members themselves
in presenting the outstanding people who appear
is one of the many advantages of this group. The
most important is, of course, the service rendered
the college community. In addition to presenting
speakers, the project of the committee was to con-
duct polls on subjects of vital interest to the girls,
and then conduct student-faculty forums on the
issues raised with the hope of some consequent
action, if it was needed and desired. This was a
very successful idea and reaped great interest among
both factions.
Interesting to the campus was the visit of Mrs.
Magidoflf who entranced all who met her with her
dynamic personality and vitality. Since so many
of the American people now are wondering about
their ally, Stalin, her lecture on Russia was espe-
cially timely.
Following Mrs. MagidofF was Robert St. John,
who spoke to a jammed Page Auditorium. In-
formal, but none the less gripping, his talk con-
cerned those little people whom war concerns so
tragically in the European countries. He described
as separate pictures, workers in war plants in Eng-
land, Greek patriots, and other incidents he had
seen.
Last was Mr. Louis LTntemeycr, who wholly
amused his audience with comments on the English
language.
Members of the committee were: Barbara Axton,
chairman; Garolyn Young, Ann Succop, Dot tie
Groome, Leona Siegel, and Dottie Sugg.

COGS
. . an urgcuiizi'ci xvish
for the ivorlcVs end.
THE COLLEGE Organization for
Cic-ncral Service was initiated at Duke in 1943 by
Miss Mary CJrace Wilson and Barbara Jarden, and
today COGS is one of the leadins; organizations on
campus. It is an "All-Out-Eor-Victory" cam-
paign wiiich encourages students to realize their
responsibilities in the war effort.
The key word is service; and faithful service
merits a COGS key, which a girl receives when
she has completed a required number of hours per
semester. These hours may be obtained in a va-
rious number of ways; for example, Nurses' Aide,
rolling bandages, assisting in the Alumni office,
selling war stamps, writing Uukc men in the serv-
ice, knitting for the Red Cross, entertaining service
men at the L^S.O. Clubs, and helping in such local
organizations as the Office of Ci\ilian Defense and
The Tuberculosis Association. This year COGS
has sponsored many drives for clothing, fiction,
and text books, the National War I'und, and liie
Red Cross.
The Hub Committee is compo.sed of the chair-
man, Mary Louise Mcrritt; vice chairman, Lncile
Blue; secretary, Carolyn Young; treasurer, Sara
Magill; publicity director, Elizabeth Prathcr; his-
torian, Jacciueline Barthan; sponsor, Miss Mary
Grace Wilson; and dormitory and town girl rep-
resentatives. The Hub Committee aims to serve
as a medium tiirough which the students may
work. Since tiie ser\'iee is purely voluntary, it is
the [jurposc of the 1 lub Committee to recruit the
many willing workers for service.
As a reward for volunteering her ser\'ice in
COGS, a girl receives a COGS key if she com-
pletes a required number of hours in a semesK r.
For the lirst semester of this year, the required
number was set at 65. In addition there has been
featured in the Chronicle a "C^OCJ of the Month,"
the girl having the most number of hours in at least
three phases of COGS work.
Perhaps there will be a "March of the COGS"
across the country, since the organization is spread-
ing to other college campuses. At any rate, en-
thusiasm in this rapidly expanding organization is
plentiful and widespread, and it is gratifying to
know that Duke coeds are eager to do their bit to
further the war (■ffi)rt.

Y.M.C.A. CABINET
THE PURPOSE of the "Y" on the
Duke Campus is one of Christian service. In a
wartime college program there are many fields in
which the "Y" may serve the students. This year
it has been the aim of the organization to present
social as well as religious activities to the Navy
and civilian students alike.
The summer activities under direction of Pres-
ident Brinkley were aimed at relieving the prob-
lem of recreation without the aid of East Campus.
Two of the campus bands under Tommy Day and
Ronnie Fess presented weekly lawn concerts. With
the setting up of ping pong tables by Recreation
chairman Tom Boone, many hard-fought contests
were enjoyed, ending with a tourney, and war
bonds as prizes. The Union lobby was the scene
of a bridge tournament also sponsored by the "Y."
Another campus need during the summer months
was that of a newspaper. The "Y" again served the
campus by printing a weekly news sheet, the Gar-
goyle, giving a calendar of events as well as news
to "Y" members. The many visitors to our cam-
pus were interested to find a committee of "Y"
men to show them the various sights on the campus.
The return of the girls to East Campus, brought
a large enrollment in the Duke ""rC Duchess Club
sponsored by the "Y" which rnahlcd the sailor and
ask a "1
man.
civilian men students to meet the girls. The event
climaxing Duke '«' Duchess dating was the annual
"Y" dance in the form of a Cabin Party Prom, at
which an informal theme was carried out.
On the graduation of President Brinkley, Wallace
McCown took ofhcc to serve through the fall term.
The November class of freshmen were welcomed in
the traditional manner by "Y" men showing them
around the campus. A three day period of orien-
tation was successfully directed by Myrlon Catling,
climaxed by a "Smoker" in the Union ballroom
with a program of entertainment and explanation
of the freshman's place on our wartime college
campus.
A special service in the Chapel in observance of
Thanksgiving was sponsored by the "Y," the speak-
er being Reverend DuBose, new director of Re-
ligious Activity at Duke. Religious Emphasis week
came under direction of the "Y" and the Univer-
sity Church. I^ean Wicks of Princeton University
brought an inspiring week of talks to the campus,
"Wanted Something to Live by."
During the fall, students interested in s])(-aking

participated in a campus wide speech tourney held
under the direction of the "Y" and the Speech de-
partment. Members of the cabinet attended state-
wide conference at Greensboro, and also worked
on the Interracial Council between North Carolina
schools. The holiday season • was marked by a
Christmas party for those students unable to go
home, this service attended by civilian as well as
navy trainees. The boys clubs in Durham schools
were continued: and through the efforts of Gil
Adams they enjoyed a party during the fall after
the Wake Forest game. President McCown rc-
\ived an old custom in renewing joint meetings of
(he "^'MCA and the YWCA to better cooperate on
campus problems.
The •'\"" as in past years published and distrib-
uted the Duke Handbook, maintained a group of
workers at Edgemont Community Center, and in-
formed Duke Dad's that their membership in Dad's
I )ay Club would be continued after the war. Cam-
pus committees served many through hospital visi-
tation and the distribution of magazines in various
campus offices. The President. Wallace McCown
and officers Ben Massey, Steve Gaillard, and Norm
Garrett, with the untiring assistance of their cab-
inet, presented a varied and interesting program
of religious and social activities to the campus in
a year beset with difficulties.
The Freshman "Y" Cabinet seeks to serve as a
YMCA for the freshmen of Duke University.
Through its activities, new men are offered an
immediate opportunity to serve in the program of
the Duke "Y," and thus to prepare for future work
with the Senior Cabinet. The present organiza-
tion was set up in July 1944, by Jack Ellis. Under
his leadership and the presidency of Johnny Bort-
ner, the Cabinet quicly became a very active di-
vision of the Duke "Y."
During the summer months, emphasis was placed
upon general organizing; participation in intra-
mural sports by the freshmen groups was strongly
encouraged. In November, with Myrlon Catling
as new adviser, the Cabinet carried out the regular
Freshman Week Program, helping the new men in
all possible methods. Later, the Cabinet spon-
sored the raising of a Bonfire for the traditional
Carolina Pep-Rally. This rally approached those
of peacetime Duke in power and excitement. Then,
in December, the Christmas decorations on West
campus were put up by the Freshman Cabinet.
This marked the close of 1944.
Starting right into action in 1945, the Cabinet
sponsored an all-freshman Campus Sing. To
bring its activities to a climax, a Joe College Swing
Dance was sponsored by the Freshmen "Y," and
it proved to be one of the best freshman dances
held at Duke in recent years as all present will
agree.

YWCA CABINET
THIS YEAR the "Y," led by the
capaljlc and enthusiastic Ruth Kansteiner and
the YWCA Cabinet, has become an even more
vital part of Duke University hfe. Ruth has had
a more difficult job than former "Y" presidents for
the effervescent "Pete," who had done so much in
coordinating the various units, orphanned the
"\'" in mid-term to become Mrs. James Ware.
"Y" work started Freshmen Week when "Y"
girls greeted newcomers as they arrived from all
parts of the country on trains, buses, and automo-
l)iics. Sara Jordon and licr Social Committee
h('l])cd them to feel at hcjinc with leas, picnics, and
pajama parties. Anne Hillman soon organized
the po])iil<ir I'rcsliman Discussion Groups. There,
students talked cncr tliicr interests and problems
witli faculty members.
Membership in the "Y" swelled during the suc-
cessful drive directed by B. J. Mayhew, the Vice
President. As .soon as classes began girls also
started to work on the many social service projects
which iiave proved so valuable to Durham and
the community. Janie Ritchie did a remarkal)le
jol> keeping the nursery school, spastic clinic,
Wright's Refuge, Duke Hos])ital, the (uiardian
Clubs, and the (jirl Scouts active. Betty I.ee
Swisher and hii Edgcmont Community Center
helped a great many of Diuhanrs younger fry by
keeping the Edgemont Community Center open
in spite of wartime housing conditions. The girls
who worked on these committees not only gained
experience in social service work but received a
great deal of satisfaction in the much needed ser\'-
iccs they were performing.
Led by Mary Barber, the Worship C'ommittee
held a very impressiv-e vesper service the first Sep-
tember Sunday that school was open. Discu.ssion
groups and other vesper services were planned by
Mary and her committee during the year. The
Worship Committee also planned vesper services
on the Woman's Campus along with the weekly
services in the Chajiel.
Julia Ramsburg has the satisfaction of seeing a
new committee successfulK launched on campus,
the Public .XfTairs Connnittee. This grouj:) was
composed <M members from both I^asi and West.
It studied and discussed problems of worldwide
interest. Sarah Jordon headed a debating contest

corn and soda with great gusto to perspiring stu-
dents and faculty. The posters, also, which ap-
peared at every corner were put up by the "Y."
Credit should go to the girls who spent their time
designing and executing their ingenous designs.
In the spring, the organization also gathered all
the mittens, umbrellas, fountain pens, rings, ker-
chiefs— and all the other odd and sundry that the
coeds are alwa\s losing — that had c(jllect("d in the

might go to the Edgemont eommuniiy (enter,
where he would see the girls helping the Durham
children in their recreation, (^r he might go to
the spastic clinic, where invaluable aid is given in
attending to these children. The meetings of the
Worship C'ommittee would offer inspiration or •
heated discu.ssion of religion. In the annual Rec-
ognition Service, he would find hope and beauty;
and in the programs of the Sophomore and Junior
Commissions, information. Last, in the Public-
Affairs group, he would find hope lor the postwar
world.
The activities of the "Y" are many. The mem-
bership is large, and the work which they accom-
plished was far-reaching, h\xt its varied activities
are coordinated into one unit of service. Under
the direction of the committee heads, each girl
performed tasks of service to the community as
well as to the college — a work for which they should
be commended.

ML!SIC STUDY CLUB
The Music Study tlliil), which has been organ-
ized for twelve years, endeavors to foster wider
appreciation and understanding of music among
students on the campus; to unite more firmU uni-
\ersity activities with community activities; to en-
courage all types of musical talent among the stu-
dents.
Its selective memljcrship is composed of girls
who ha\e shown outstanding ability in some field
of musical accomplishment or have a deep appreci-
ation of music and want to aid in bringing good
music to the campus. Upperclassmen were initi-
ated before Chirstmas this year while freshmen
were voted into the club dm-ing the second semes-
ter. The club emphasizes the fact that one need
not be a performing artist to apply for membership,
but need only exhibit an interest in and under-
standing of music and its artists.
Programs for the year were both entertaining
and instructional. The plan was to present talks
about and selections from the works of the favorite
composers of the Club. Chopin, Wagner, Gersh-
win, and other well-known musicians were featured
in the programs. Whenever possible, the pro-
grams followed the Duke University Concert Series.
One j)rogram was devoted to North Carolina music
and artists prior to the Browning-Cordon recital.
. learning to listen
.Another was devoted to Egon Petri. Artists from
both campuses and from town appeared through-
out the year. Egon Petri, whom the Club spon-
sored this year, was given a reception in East Duke
building. Otiier social activities included a Christ-
mas party for ihc club and a dancc-rcccption dur-
ing the spring.
The Music Study Club is especialK representa-
tive of the aims of the liberal arts college. At a
time when men arc unable to gi\'c emphasis to
music and art in their courses, it falls to women to
carry over the cultural tradition into a peacetime
world. For this reason the Music Study Club
hopes to encourage an interest among the women
in things musical.

guidance of the following officers: Helen Barn-
hardt, president; .Audrey Shumaker, vice president;
Barljara Roberts, recording secretary; Velma Jane
Ritchie, corresponding .secretary; Marie C^hrista-

SOCIAL STANDARDS
WITH THE CHANGE in times,
tiic Social Standard.s Committee ha.s endeavored
to chantje and modify the standards first adopted
In liie Committee, keeping in mind the funda-
mental principles upon which the Committee must
operate. Its purpose is twofold: first, that it adopt
certain standards to become an integral {Dart of
the life of Duke women, and second, that it pro-
mote social activity on the campus. Under the
guidance of Merthel Greenwell, Chairman; and
Miss Mary Grace Wilson, Adviser; the Committee
lias met and dealt with the wartime conditions on
our campus, striving to maintain Duke's social
tradition.
We began the year with a series of dances given
in the Ark for freshmen and transfers, offering the
newcomers an introduction to Duke social life.
M. I). Whetmore, chairman of the dances, was
aided b\ the members of the Men's Freshman Ad-
\isory Ciouncil in creating an atmosphere of in-
formalit\ and friendliness.
On Thanksgiving Eve, the Social Standards
Committee gave its annual Coed Ball. The Com-
mittee's traditional figure was led by Merthel
Greenwell, followed by Jane Sherrill, Chairman
of the Ball. Tom Davis, of football faine, who was
. nil. nil, IJIIC/U'SS
master ol ceremonies during the fioure, liuncd the
microphone over to Helen Wade, Editor-in-chief
of the C!hantici.eer and Miss Buffa Garrett was
crowned by Joe Waters, Business Manager of the
yearbook. After the ball, the Social Standards
Committee members and their escorts were served
breakfast in Brown House f)arlor.
In December, the Committee presented a cal-
. endar for 1945 with scenes of the Duke Campus.
The money made on the sale was spent toward
benefiting the entire student body.
'■'I'his Way, Please," an entirely new and difler-
en( handbook, was distributed in the spring to all
coeds with the purpose of clarifying the standards
which Duke women are expected to uphold.
Each year the Committee plans a project which
is presented in the form of a gift to the University.
This year, sets of lawn chairs were placed in the
courts of each of the dormitories.
Other activities include open houses for students
and faculty, improvements in the Union, and dis-
cu.ssions of campus conditions. Activities were
climaxed by the traditional Spring Coed Ball.

MEN'S FRESHMAN ADVISORY COUNCIL
NO LONGER was Duke a civilian
school; and just as other organizations were chang-
ing, the F.A.C. made many changes in its work
and organization. One of the most important of
these changes was that of taking imdcr its guid-
ance those boys coming from the fleet to Duke
without previous college experience and also the
hoys coming from other schools. Add to these,
the V-I2 freshmen and civilian freshmen, and
you'll sec the big job that was to be done.
To meet the situation F.A.C. changed from its
traditional Hou.se Captain System lo Claptains of
N'arious units on campus i. e. of Marine, Navy,
and Civilian students. Serving under these Cap-
tains were some one hundred members, each work-
ing with men of his own classification.
The i:)urpose oi llic Council has been to make
a\ailable lo newcomers to Duke the knowledge
and ex|)erience gained by up|jerclassmen, selected
according to a very high standard.
A new and very successful pan of F..\.C.'s pro-
gram for this year has been an open house at the
University House for all new men in cooperation
wilh llic .Mumni OfTicc Here ihe new men were
introduced to ihc .XdiuiiiisiiMiion and student cam-
pus leaders, and ;i program of nmsic and movies
was followed by rclreshmcnts and a fellowship |)e-
riod. 'Fwo such events were held in July and
November with excellent attendance.
. . . zvhose thoughtful ivork
makes adjustment easier.
One of the most outstanding social events at
Duke this year was the annual F..\.C:. Dance.
Held in September as the first oi)in dance of the
fall, it attracted a capacity crowd lo hear the music
of the famed iSglh Division Hand from (^am])
Hutner. A huge replica of the F..\.C. Key hung
in llic ccnlcr of the gym, and from it slrclchcd blue
and white streamers. Some other social e\-ents
sponsored by F.A.C. were the freshmen o|)en houses
on East in September, ihe freshmen evening dances
held in the .Xrk in cooperation with ihe Social
Standards Committee, and an informal dance lor
F..'\.C. members as a reward lor ilicii' hard work
during the semesier.
The Council held ils weekly lucciinns lo discuss
futtu-e plans and pressing problems. .\lso, each
member luade il a part of his week's ])rogram lo
see his li\c or six a<l\isees al Icasi oiuc a week.
This has been the factor llial has com ril micil mosi
to the success of ihe Council.
War- oi- peaceliuic, iIk' I'nshin.iii .\(l\ isor\
C^ouncil has a job lo do. Men will always need
guidance and ad\ice, and F..\.C. glatlly will seek
to be of ser\ice lo I hem.

WOMEN'S FRESHMAN ADVISORY COUNCIE
. a listening ear and a
helping hand.
THE FRESHMAN ADVISORY
ClOUNC'IL is an honorar)' tijroup, consisting this
year of ihirty-llirce responsible juniors and seniors
who arc chosen on the basis of abihty, Icadersliip,
character, and interest. The status of the Council
is based on friendliness, interest and loyalty. Each
fresiiman will lind in her acK'iser a loyal and true
friend, ready lo help the freshman in adjusting
hersell lo college life in all its asj^ects. They help
the hcshnien lo accjuire good study habits, to choose
their extra-curricular actixities wisely, and assist as
they can to see that each and e\-er\' new Duke coed
s(K)n becomes in every way a useful campus citizen.
Lnder the supervision of Mrs. Elizabeth Anderson
Persons, who is Dean of Freshman Women, this
organization works for a permanent dexclopment
of character and personality, for a true sense of
\alues and discipline, and lor a spirit of independ-
ence that should continue with the student during
her entire life.
1 he Ad\isor\' Cicnincil upon their ajipointment
in the spring, go through a foiu" weeks pericjd of
training in jireparation for their work in th;- fall.
The girls then, with upperclassmen from the other
organizations of the Woman's College, return to
the campus a week early in order to meet and wel-
come the new arrivals. It is that first necessary
feeling of "belonging" that each adviser strives to
give to her freshmen. Hut the adviser's work has
only begun by the close of ''Freshman Week."
Throughout the year, she helps her group of girls.
She attends regular meetings of the C'ouncil to
discuss problems of their groups, to note the reac-
tions of the freshman cla.ss to their new college life,
and to become acquainted with any of the major
actions that the freshman cla.ss are sponsoring.
The Freshman .\clvisory Council plays an im-
portant pari on ihe campus. First of all, it is a
student organization and as such, contacts the
freshmen directly on a basis of equality and under-
standing. This year the Council has worked more
closely with the Women's Student (Joxcrnment
Association in working out a more eirecti\e Fresh-
men Study Plan. The advisers this year have been
enthusiastic; and in their eagerness to be successful,
ha\e instilled this same vitality in the freshman
class. There is no more envied friendship than
that of achiser and freshman . . . one of true sin-
cerity and helpfulness.

A YEAR ago, with increasing war-
time restrictions on travel and with the rapid turn-
over in the West Campus student body under the
Navy program, prospect.s for a successful Glee Club
season seemed far from bright. In fact, it seemed
doubtful that there would be a club at all, so few
experienced men remained on the campus. This
outlook, however, failed to take into consideration
the ability and drive of ]. Foster Barnes, director
of the Men's Glee C:lub and the Chapel Choir for
the past fifteen years, whose admirable leadership
has produced a long succession of nationally known
Duke Glee C:iubs. Under the skillful direction of
the beloved "Bisho]),"' the remnants of the old club
gathered in the fall, together uiih ilu- new recruits,
to whip into shape a revitalized group of more than
sixty singing sailors and civilians which gave its
first concert early in November at .Sweet Briar
C!ollege, in a joint appearance with the Sweet
Briar (lollege (ilee Club. The ensuing four months
saw the club in concerts before enthusiastic audi-
ences at Cireensboro Ciollege, at Salem Clollege in
Winston-Salem, and in our own Page Auditorium.
imdcr Bishoh^s baton
The gleemen climaxed their already successful
season with the club's ninth annual trip to New
York City, where a fifteen minute broadcast over
a national hookup was made from the N.B.C.
studios in Rockefeller Center.
The Men's Glee C'lub has always constituted a
substantial portion of the far-famed Chai)el Choir.
and as such, it contributes signifieantK to the in-
spiring musical program of the .Sunday morning
chapel services. This year, as formerly, in keeping
with Duke tradiiiun, the choir presented Handel's
Messiah during the Christmas season and Parker's
Ilor/i .Ydvi.ssima on Pahii Sunday, in eoniniemora-

THROUGHOUT the years, the
Women's Glee Club has remained one of the larg-
est and most acti\c organizations on the East Gram-
pus. Under the direction of Mrs. J. Foster Barnes
it has meant fun and progress to the more than
hundred girls who comprise it.
One of the piu'poscs of the Women's Cilci- Cijul)
is to serve as a training ground for the Ghapel
Choir. Approximately sevent\-fi\e xoices are
chosen from the club each year to join the picked
voices from the Men's Glee Club in forming the
Choir heard o\er WDXC and in the Clhapei e\er\-
Sunday morning. In addition to these regular
services, the Choir this year gave its traditional
presentation of Handel's Messiah: i)ro\idecl the
music for the annual Christmas pageant; and
added to its repertoire, Parker's Hora Novissima
for Palm Sunday.
Nine girls and the accompanist Irom the ciuij
compose the triple trio, vvhicii has made a name
for it.self singing at campus activities and for ci\ic
organizations in Durham. The operetta "Pirates
of Penzance," whicii was gi\en this spring, was a
result of the combined efforts of the Men's and
Women's Glee CHubs.
Following a practice established two years ago,
the (ilee Club awarded scrolls of merit to several
girls who have shown unusual ability and interest.
The club is not lacking in social activities. Be-
sides the monthly C^hoir parties and the parties for
new members in the dormitories, we had twtj big
social events. The first of these was the annual
Glee C:iub dance, which this year was sponsored
by all of the musical organizations on campus.
The second big e\ent was a cabin party— a repeat
performance of the very successful one last year.
Fhe officers for the year were as follows: Betty
Jones, president; Carolyn Voung, vice president;
Barbara Jane Mayhew and Betty Jean Gilliam,
secretarN' and assistant secretary; Nancy Sour and
Carole Stark, treasurer and assistant treasurer.

the DUKE PLAYERS
Varied action in Kiss and Tell.
The World Behind the Foofliohts.
DUKE PLAYERS came tlirou^h
another year of working under wartime shortages
of men and material to produce three successful
plays under the direction of A. T. West. Having
fewer men to help these productions, most of the
technical work has fallen to the women.
The first production was F. Hugh Herbert's Am
am/ Tell. Perhaps we can best present a picture
of Duke Players in action by describing the work
involved in a single ]3roduction.
The play chosen and cast, many hoiu-s of tedious
work lie in store for the crew of workers beliind
the scenes. A description of the setting is gi\en
to the set designers and in an ama/ingly shoit time
a draft is gi\en to "Bogie"" and Jackson, the stage
managers. Hammers and saws are i)ui to work
and f<jr many steady, long hours, sawdust and nails
fly cNcrywheic. The set is complete paint buck-
ets and blushes <()nic lioni e\ ciy Cdi'nrr and soon

The whole organization has contributed its tal-

U.S.O.'s and to Army Service Genters, where each
was \-ery well received.
THETA ALPHA PHI, national hon-
orarv dramatic IVaternitN' which was headed this
year by Helen Kindler, served as a common meet-
ing ground lor the various campus dramatic grinips.
Represented in the membership were Duke Players,
H(jof and Horn, the Glee Glui), and members of
last year's Gampus Time radio show. Technical
difficulties prevented Theta Alpha Phi from sjion-
soring the weekly radio program this year as it has
in the past; nevertheless, a needed function was
filled by the organization. "Poji"' \Wst, Players'
director, was the fraternity's ad\iser; officers in ad-
dition to Kindler were Bob Brengle, vice presidc-nt;
Snovvie Ethridge, secretary; Don Buckley, treasurer.

DKLIA FHl KHO ALPHA
A Run. A GoaL A Baskei
WHEN DELTA PHI RHO AL-
PHA. honoraiN- athletic sorority, was loundcd in
1921, its members wished to give recognition lo
those who had excelled in leadership in sports.
This sorority was created as a sister organization
to Tombs, honorary athletic fraternity for men, as
an answer to a demand for better organization of
athletic activities and for the purpose of creating
a greater and more active participation in intra-
miual athletics. This purpose was carried out
this year under the leadei-ship of president Betty
Lee Boren. Other officers of the organization
were Mrs. R. M. Gantt. Jr.. vice president; Kath-
arine Mayers, secretary; and Nancy Hunter, treas-
urer.
.Admission to new girls is limited to two juniors
and seven sophomores. The initiation in March
is similar to that of Tombs. The initiates are sta-
tioned anywhere on East Campus from the Wash-
ington Duke statue to the steps of Southgate. Each
future member is garbed in the traditional "goat
costume" of heavy black stockings, one black and
one white shoe, a middy blouse, and a short black
skirt, and is made to carry a rolling pin, a paddle,
a bucket, and various other articles with the Greek
letters of the sorority on them.
To accomplish its aim of wider intramiual ac-
li\iiy. Delta Phi Rho .\lpha sponsored a basket-
ball tournament in the winter and an all-campus
play day in the spring. To encourage athletic
participation and the perfection of one's abilities,
a key is awarded each year to the senior, who by
her leadership, sportsmanship, and athletic ability
throughout her four years at Duke is considered
the most outstanding athlete.
Ha\ing been chosen for membership because of
outstanding ability and interest in athletics, the
members of Delta Phi Rho Alpha are conscientious
workers and planners. This year the sorority co-
operated wholeheartedly with the W.A.A. and
W.S.-A.B. and provided the Campus with enter-
tainment by holding complementary open houses
in the Women's Gym.

THE NEREIDIAN C;LUB, an hon-
orary swimming organization for coeds, serves to
stimulate interest and exeelleney in water sports
among Duke women. The members, chosen for
their ability in form-swimming and diving, are
noted not only for their athletic ability but also
for their social adaptability.
Every spring the Ncreidian gains outstanding
recognition for its pageant which is the result of
hard work and effort on (■\cry member's part.
This year the pageant carried out the theme of a
barn dance with square dance figures. During
intermission the modern dance club presented
dances in keeping with the theme. Especially
effect i\r were the large paintings decorating the
pool in I he JKun dance manner. White suits were
worn for the tjroup swimming when the club pre-
sented its intricate stars and wheels and square
dance figures. Favorite of the show was Gwin
Barnwell, who was featured with her parasol in
one of the intermission dances.
In addition to the colorful pageant, the Nereidian
f'lub had the privilege of sponsoring the National
Telegraphic Swimming Meet. This is sponsored
annually by different colleges and since the Ne-
reidian scored so well last \ear, it was given this
honor this year. C'omjx-titors swam for speed
i I iu lu lu/ in
alone with results determined h\ comparative
times.
Ihe Junior Nereidian Club, which is under the
the guidance of the active Nereidian members, is
an organization to stimulate an interest in under-
graduate girls and to impro\c their swimming
ability in order thai ihry may be eligible to tr\-
out for the Nereidian ( Huh. IVnoui^ an- held boih
in the fall and the ^^priiiL; .iiid ;ii ilii^ lime girls are
inxited to join.
In the fall, an ()|)rn house was held and all gii'ls
interested in swimming were invited. Two figures
from last year's pageant were presented and after
this program there was swimming and refreshments.
.Another new featine initiated by the club this
year was an informal pledging service followed by
Fish Day during which the new pledges wore bath-
ing caps, clashing socks, and unmatched shoes.
As the year closed, the Nereidian Cilub found
itself bettered by the enthusia.sm and cooperation
of all its members and the gratifying recognition
given it by both cam[)uses.

ROW, the I'amous home ol' the Chanticleer,
Chronicle, and Arcliire. Here is where confusion
reit^ns. Amid the throngs, a gUmpse of Markham
can be seen as he quietly ( ! !) stalks through the
piles of paper lining the Chronicle Office. The
phone. "Hey, Wade, you're wanted!" The din
increases. Whitley yells for a match from the
dark-room. Bob Malcolm searches hopefully for
another ad. Bodo shoves Simidian aside to make
a confidential phone call to East while the Chronicle
Office suddenly stops work to listen. Nasty Lee
tries in vain to top Ray Smith's vocal chords. A
stray cix'ilian takes the Archive Office for the laun-
drv but Peterson gallantly offers to let Groome do
the shirts for a nominal fee. The phone. "Hey,
Eaton, it's Snowy!" . . . "Who took my pencil?"
. . . and Joe yells to turn the "1490 Club" on.
Helen shoves a nickel into the hand of an unsus-
pecting freshman and tells her to get 100 penny
postcards. Kindler asks Charlie when he's leav-
ing. Carolyn King smiles patiently as Waters
shows her a picture of his niece for the thirty-second
time. J3eMott proudly waves a snap of the Phi
circle. The Frosh comes back saying she's awfully
sorry but they'd only give her 5 postcards for a
nickel . . . "Dig These Blues" blares forth ... a
returning alumnus is showered with slaps and hand-
shakes. Bot Atkins rips through a mountain of
papers on his desk in search of an ad. Someone
sneaks cjuietly in to steal a typewriter but Heffner
catches the thief . . . The Row expectantly awaits
the arrival of the DukEngineer staff ... a search for
the January issue of the 1932 Archive starts up.
"Why can't the Germans be defeated by April?"
. . . "Has anyone seen a blue French book?" Part
of the chow-line drifts into the Row. "What
happened to the Junior Class write-up?" . . . "Has
Branscomb shown up yet?" The atmosphere
grows blue with smoke. The plea of "Who's got
an extra stag ticket?" rings through the Row. No
one answers. The phone rings . . . "No, this isn't
the King's Daughter's Home!" Mackie pulls Joe
from his Escjiiire and Lucssenhop picks it up. Herbst
pounds on the dark-room door. Night approaches.
The noise decreases. The crowds dwindle. Here
and there the pecking of a typewriter can be heard
... a figure leaning over a dummy can be seen.
Someone laughs. Someone whistles. But the con-
fusion is gone—gone for another day. But it will
soon be tomorrow . . . the phone will ring . . . the
radio will be turned on full blast . . . jjandemonium
will once more reign supreme . . . and the Row
will once again be in its normal state!

W. 11. Wannamaker, and Clharles E. Ward, who
was reelected as chairman of the Board and the
undergraduate membership consisting of four wom-
en and six men, each elected by their respective
Student CJo\ernment Associations. In addition,
there are alumni committees, and the editors and
business managers of the publications who serve in
an advisory, but non-voting capacity. The pur-
pose of the Board is to have those members who
will he responsive to student opinion in directing
the publications and who will ha\'e an intimate
knowledge and interest in ilu- publications of the
campus.
Even more than many organizations on the cam-
pus, the publications have ibimd it difficult going
these- past four war years — b(nh because they were
formerly almost exelusi\-ely run by men and be-
cause of the materials they used in engra\ing and
|)riiuing. Therefore, the Hoard has faced many
dilhculiies in linaneing the |)ul)lieations, and ob-
taining the |)roperl\' (lualilied ollicers. Its polic\'
has been lo lower llic class re(|uircmcnts. but lo
maintain those standards of interest and (|ualiiy of
work, which it feels are so necessary in this \ital
campus function.
Two of the ijublicalions are not directly under
the sui)er\'ision of the Board. These are i\\v. Dith-
Engirifn and the Da/filiiii. Tor the DiikEngineer, the
Board delegated powers of election to the I">ngi-

unit.
With the spring graduation, Joe Waters, Bob
Rickert, and Ray Smith received their degrees aqd
commissions; and Vahe Simidian and Charles
Sydnor were elected to fill the vancancies.
No one who has ever come before the board will
ever forget it. 'The long tabic, the carved oak
chairs, the impersonal appraisal of the board — all
serve to make a three minutes that seems an hour.
Even longer seems the time that he awaits his choice

LIKE SOME of the other wartime
activities at Duke the Dolphin started oil as a mim-
eographed pubHcation. The N.R.O.T.C^. was con-
sidered a wartime activity that would prol)ably dis-
appear as soon as the emergency was over. But as
1944 came to a close the nation as a whole began
to show a desire to keep up their first line of defense
— the Navy. Today we all know that the R.O.T.C:.
at Duke will be a permanent organization.
To Dick Beddingfield goes the credit for getting

THE 1944-4", Archur was edited hy
Snowy Elhridgc and a compctont stall which main-
ly included girls from I'^ast. Clhici' assistant to
Snowy was Bud Peterson, until his commissioning
in February. Kay CJoodman ser\cd as assistant
editor and Raymond Lopez was art editor until he
was transferred hy the Na\y. Ann I'lexner was
poetr\- editoi'. The size of the editorial staff was
small, hut the memhei-s were well-ehosen and did
their job excellently. I'heir imat^ination and clever
ideas produced leatiucs that were praised by the
student reading public. .Sue Howniall and Ka\-
Mayers were the chief assistants to the editor, and
Merlyn McCllure did valuable work in photog-
raphy, making shots for the eo\ers and for adver-
tising illustrations. .Story illustrations and car-
toons were done b\' Tom Hayes, C^hris Hall, Loring
Fountain, Don Clarguil and Raymond Lopez.
The business staff, headed by Bill Eaton coop-
erated with the editorial staff in their policy of
more pictures and illustrations and by doubling
their receipts o\er pre\ious years enabled the
magazine to be a bigger, fuller, more readable
one. Assisting Eaton this year were Dottie Groome,
coed business manager, Peggy Heim, coed ach'er-
tising manager, and I'ran Hudson as office chief.
Bill Patrick and Nancy McCrummin, circulation
managers, saw to it that the Archire was distributed.
Jon F. Houtman served as bookkeeper. Adver-
tising assistants were Dee Centner, Mary Morse,
Sara Huckle and Margaret .Meeker. These girls
were responsible lor the ini|)ro\-euieiU in advertis-
ing design.
Most striking cover of the year was on the Marc h
issue, in which Loiini; I'oiinlain satirized the ( !(jrd
hal)it ol gelling an earl)' sunlan, by ])osing stretched
out in l)alhing suit and fur coat. The .■\])ril or
Easter issue went bake to the Ivistei' bunny with
an albino rabbit from the Hos|)ital as model.
Featured in the February issue were the sweet-
hearts of the fraternities, with each |)hotograph
framed by the respective pin. Later, the fraterni-
ties were given double spread for rushing, in which
appeared such subtle lines as "Quite Frankly — we
need men."
The Clhristmas issue saw Buffa Garrett hanging
her stocking from the fireplace mantel. An earlier
issue saw full page cuts of campus beauties in the
form of a seasonal calendar, rivaling that of Esquire.
And, in contrast, the March issue showed old
C^HANTicii.EER bcaiuics.
The Archive staff felt that this year it had suc-
ceeded in presenting to the students a completely
collegiate magazine, one that would not be remem-
bered as a wartime merger, but a magazine that
had established itself as a well-integrated outlet for
student literary, himiorous. and artistic talent for
vears to come.

//n CHRONICLE
Charles Markham, Editor
THE Duke Chronicle rounds out
another year of recording in black and white the
weelc-hy-wcek story of a great university at war —
a turbulent year packed with events of great sig-
nificance. In describing and analyzing the events
— campus, national, world-shaking — which made
1944-45 the great year that it was. Chronicle editors
were insistent upon presenting as mature and se-
rious an editorial policy as possible, and maintain-
ing the high standards of journalistic excellence for
which this newspaper has always won praise.
When the present board of editors assumed
their positions in March 1944, they realized that
"the good old days" of Joe College were over, and
resolved that the Chronicle would do no more edi-
torial wailing about it. The Chronicle immediately
launched into a series of editorials postulating a
postwar program for the University which the
editors believed would lift the University from its
intellectual rut — higher scholastic standards and
less emphasis on the lighter side of college life in
the postwar period were recommended. Through-
out the year this series was continued, against the
protests of those who claimed that the Chronicle was
overstepping its bounds in making such recom-
mendations.
Readers who disagreed with the Chroncile's edi-
torial policy on the postwar University — and in-
deed on its policy on national and international
events — often hurled this charge — that editorial
writers and columnists lacked sufficient experience
to comment upon such matters. The 1944-45
Chronicle, however, stuck to its guns, holding that
the function of the editorial page is to stimulate
thought rather than to express expert opinion. In
their attempt to produce a mature newspaper
which would reflect credit upon the University,
the editors dropped such perennial Chronicle fea-
tures as the gossip column, Duke's Mixture; this was
an Unpopular step, but a justifiable one in view of
the editor's conviction that the Chronicle owes a
greater debt to the University than to the students
who read it.
Technically, the Chronicle rated high, winning
its second All-American rating from Associated
Collegiate Press in a six-year period, and the editors

been seen in some time. Coed business manager
Nancy Donovan was in charge of operations on
East Campus. She recruited the girls necessary

amount of acK'ertising carried in the paper was
kept at a high level by a hard working ad\'crtising

the CHANTICLEER
THE PREPARATION and publica-
tion of the 1945 Chanticleer has been completed.
It has been completed under extreme difficulties
brought about by the war, and under resulting
changes in all conditions. It has been completed
with much labor on the part of Editor Helen Wade
and her staff.
The actual preparation for the 1945 C^hanti-
CLEER began with the first confusing day of Fresh-
man Week and continued through to the joyous
day that it was presented to the anxious students.
Thus the Ch.anticleer covers every phase of Duke
life, its student body and its organizations; it is
the result of a whole year of planning on the part
of the Editor and her staff. Therefore the work
on the yearbook is broader and more varied than
that of any other publication, since not only the
student body must be clearly shown, but also each
of the many events which took place during the
year. These events range from the riotous Sugar
Bowl game to the more serious Religious Emphasis
Week assemblies; they range from the annual Men's
Glee CUub Concert to the colorful Coed Ball in the
fall.
The sad story of the man-power situation along
the Row was strongly felt by the feminine members
of the Chanticleer staff. Any member will be
willing to tell of their plight! Just ask the Asso-
ciate Editor, Bobin' Luessenhop; it was really a job
Helen S. Wade, FJilm-in-Chi-f
to keep up with the filing of the pictures and the
sighs of the staff every time a R.O.T.C. walked by.
Because of Bobby's heavy schedule, Ann Heffner
stepped into her position the second semester, and
gracefully herded the staff back from iheir sigiis to
the problems of mounting and write-ups. How-
ever, the Ofiice was still filled with its lighter mo-
ments as Maggie Carter quite evidently l)lushed as
she was ordered to interview the Dean of the Di-
vinity School, and True Cochran daslK>d around
seeking one txpewriter that worked. Libl)\' Shan-

ley rotated her interests between the Chanticleer
and Chronicle while Pat Way tried to drag her back
to her senses to help her draw squares. The Pho-
tography Editor, Bev Whitley tried diligently to
find the thief who used his camera as a football,
while Jean Kiley worried continuously if Bob Herijst
and Johnny Elliot would remember the niunerous
pictures on their schedules.
Much of the success of the book is owed to Joe
Waters who started in getting ads and putting his
ideas to work almost before the 1 944 C^hanticleer
had appeared. It \sas he who appealed to the
Nurses and secured a separate section for them.
With assistant Joe Riley, he also obtained all the
iiifoiin.ilion for ihr senior- sections ol ihr \'-i j and
N.R.( ).'!.(:.
Ma\- .\nnc ( lassacK', better known as "Mackie,"
could be lV)unil most any day, helloing wiih the
l(jng task of picture taking and later of collecting.
.\s Coed Business Manager, hers was the task of
making all East Campus returns.
Most important evidence of (he vitality and fore-
sight of the business staff this year is the new [)lan
for collections on East, which will eliminate door-
to-door canvass and will instiliue a flat rate for
each girl for all four years.
No enterprise of such size can get along wiihout
its faithful staff; and it is the girls to whom much
credit is due. They typed letters, bills, liled, and
checked. Duffey, Romaine, Karris, Turrell, and
all the others were a vital part of the work.
With the departure of Joe Waters into the ranks
of the Navy ensigns. Bob Malcohn took over for
the linal work of deli\'ery.
Mr. Charles Jordan, faculty achiser, through
many years of publication experience, aided inesti-
mably in guiding the Editor and Business Manager
in liicir editorial and linancial decisions.
.\nd so another year has g(jne by . . . another
year with its terrifying deadlines and hectic cap-
tions . . . another year with its fights over the last
available sheet cjf yellow paper . . . another year
with its immortal laughs at the green mistakes of
the Freshmen . . . another year with its worries
aboiu the man-power in the Office and on the Row
. . . and last and most important of all, another
year with the great .sensation of a job well done!

the DUKE ENGINEER
. . . for ^'slipsticF^ spiril.
THE Diik Engineer, at the end of its
filth year of pubHcation by the students of the Col-
lege of Engineering, can look baek on a year of
still further steady growth and development. The
onlj unsubsidized campus publication, it has again
demonstrated its ability to stand and grow success-
fully on its own merit.
This bi-monthly magazine designed to fill the
particular needs of the engineering students first
appeared in its present form in July 1943 — a time
when many college magazines were finding it nec-
essary to suspend publication for the duration of
the war. Despite the wartime problems which
face all colk-ge publications — wavering enrollments,
increased scholastic loads, restricted activities, etc.
- — the DukEngineer has risen steadily to take its place
among the leading engineering college magazines
of the nation.
The graduation of Al Rountrec in June saw Dick
Doyle step up into the post of editor-in-chief; later.
Bob Norris replaced Dick at the helm. John Im-
hoflT, always an energetic worker, made his way up
through the editorial staff to his present position of
managing editor. Bill Becker was installed as as-
sociate editor. Through all of these changes, the
business affairs of the magazine have been capably
administered by H. D. Robinson, Jr. As executive
officers ol' the DukEngineer staff, Norris, Imhoff,
Robinson, and Becker have borne the complete
financial and editorial responsibility of the maga-
zine. The capable and unselfish support of the
many other members of the staff has provided the
foundation for their success.
From the very start, the DukEngineer policy has
been to present an original cover design with each
issue. Pleasing a great \'ariety of readers requires a
broad selection of subject matter: technical dis-
cussions; news of engineering alumni; popular
presentations of engineering subjects; cartoon car-
icatures of "The Profs"; historical tidbits concern-
ing the early days of engineering at Duke; tributes
to alumni who have given their lives at the battle-
fronts; reports on student activities, and a pictorial
presentation of the engineers' choice of Freshman
Beauty Queen. The advertisements of nationally-
known industrial and engineering firms have been
designed for eye-appeal and general interest, and
])ro\-ide still further variety for the reader.

CXJAC'Il ""C^tjlbx Jack"" C^oonibs 1944 cdilion ol
the Blue Dc\'\\ cliamond squad copped second
place lienors in llu- Ration I.camie, formed because
of the exigencies of war. The Ration League is
made up of teams I'roni Carolina Pre-Flight, Caro-
lina, N. C. State, and Duke. The Dukesters
played four games with each of tlie teams, winning
nine and losing three. In addition to these con-
tests, the l)e\ils played four service teams — Cherry
Point Marines, liie Na\al Academ>', Cireensboro
BTC, and Fort Bragg, dropping ail four encounters.
This ga\e the scjuaci an over-all percentage of .563.
Three \eterans from pre\ious Duke nines were
on hand for opening drills: Ed Little, Bill Freeze,
and George "\'autz. Cbombs had to inould his
sciuad from the large turn-out of eighty candidates
w ho answered the opening call.
On Monday, April 17, the season o]3ened in
Coomljs Park vsith Pre-Flight. The Dc\ils started
off things in the right way, tripping the V-5ers by
6-5. But on the next Wednesday the Leathernecks
from Cherry Point came in and knocked out a 9-5
win. The count was knotted at 5-all as the Ma-
rines came up to bat in the ninth, but before they
were put out. ihcy liaci tallied four runs to lake
the contest.
N. C. State was the next o|)ponent of the Duke-
sters, and De\'il hurler Eric I''elton set tiicm doun
with a 3-0 shut-out. This %ictory mo\'ed the lads
into first place in the Ration League. Van Lingle
Mungo, late of Brooklyn fame, but then of the
army, led his Fort Bragg teammates to a 7-0 wiiitc-
wash win as the Soldiers in\aded the Methodist
Flats. In the live innings which he pitched, only
two balls were hit out of the infield by the l)i-\ils.
He allowed only three scratch binglcs during that
time.

In the second meeting with State, the Coombs-
men again proved victorious, this time by a wide
1 2-1 margin. The Devils dropped their next en-
counter to the Pre-FHghtcrs, 4-3. Carolina's Tar
Heels then handed out a defeat, sending the Duke-
sters to third place in the League. Breaking their
two-game losing streak, the Coombsmen, with
Lefty Lee Griffith on the mound, blasted out a
1 2-1 win to bounce back into the pennant race.
Bill Wright was high man for Duke in that con-
test, with three for fi\e. VVinbrow, Pickett, Freeze,
and Little contril)utc<l base knocks to account for
the runs.
The last nine games of the season held many
thrills for fans of the Blue Devils. On May 13,
Duke .slammed out a significant win over the Prc-
Flighl nine. Bob Houghton entered the game lor
Devils in the first inning alter Roy Talcott had
loaded ilii- bases witii Ircc passes. There were
none out ai ilic limc, and from thai ])()int on. Bob
set the 'Busicis down wiliujiU a hit. The final
score was <J-i, the Pre-I'lighters having ])us1h(1 one
across in the opening frame.
In their next encounter, Lee (irilluli dupli(<it<cl
his previous performance, hurling a 12-1 win over
the hapless Terrors of N. C. .Stale. Navy then
trimmed Duke in .Annapolis with a ninth inning
rally, 5-4. But Houghton came back with another
sterling performance lo whitewash North Carolina
8-0, avenging the earlier defeat. I'he Devils then
absorbed one of (heir worst setbacks of the season

score. Houghton again beat Carolina 8-4 to throw
Duke into a tie for the Ration League lead and
put the spotlight on the game with co-leaders, the
Pre-Flight Cloudbustcrs. That hearlbreakcr for
the Dukes went 14 innings without a score before
Prc-Flight pushed over a run in the i -)th to win

W'lTH ONLY two Icttcrmen reporting back,
Coach Bob Cox began his second year as tennis
mentor at Duke. Thirty boys turned out to greet
Cox on the first day, and from them he shaped his
squad. Among those who joined the team was
Chuck Tiechnor, formerly of Minnesota. He was
ranked fourth among the junior players in the
country in competition the year before.
Cioach Cox scheduled matches with Georgia
Tech (a home-and-home series), Navy, University
of V^irginia, and Carolina (another home-and-home
series). For the opening contest with Tech, play-
ing the number one spot was Tiechnor, while Rufe
Ashby played second, Emory Green third. Bob
Norris, fourth, A. B. Priemer fifth, and Barney
\Vansker sixth; and Johnny Keye teamed uj) for
the doubles.
But a powerful Atlanta net team plastered a
smarting defeat on the I)e\ils; and the Dukesters
did not fare any better in the next match against
Carolina. Tiechner was the only one to emerge
victorious as the squad went clown before the Tar
Heels by 8-1.
In a contest that was added to the schedule after
the .season opened, the Cherry Point Marines took
a decisive 7-2 win. Paul Schoenlaub and Johnny
Keye were the only Duke netters to register wins.
But all the doubles contests were extremely close.
A return match with Georgia Tech showed some
improvement in the Duke netters as they were able
to win two of the matches. The Atlanta squad
won, nevertheless, y-'j. A powerful team from the
Naval Academy whipped the Blue Devils at .\n-
napolis 9-0. Then came the bright spot in the
otherwise dismal tennis season. Carolina's high
fi\ing Tar Heels suflcred their first defeat at the
hands of a Duke team since 1927. The score was
6-'3 and gave Duke a claim to the .Southern C'on-
ference tennis chamjjionship.
The Dukes, encouraged by their brilliant accom-
plishment, then handily smacked clown the L'nixcr-
sity of Virginia 8-1 .
Leltermen for the 1944 tennis men were Rufus
Ashby, Bill Brinklcy (manager), Emory Green,
Johnny Keye, Robert Norris, Augusta Priemer,
Paul .Schoenlaub. Ciiarles Tiechnor, and Barney
VVanskcr.
Of the 1944 Iriicniicn. only liechnor and Nor-
ris returned to i)olster Coach Cox's 1945 edition.
To overcome this shortage, Cox was planning
to choose a major part of the "45 netmen from the
winners of the intramural eliminations.
The 1945 schedule listed matches with Georgia
Tech, North Carolina, Navy, William and Mary,
\'irginia, and the Citadel, gi\ing the Blue Devils
four matches with Southern Conference opponents.

Captain McCAULEY C:LARK, ';39, uho played
half-back and end for the Blue Devils, is now the
pilot of a P-51 Mustang Fighter in the 8th Air
Force. Recently Clark destroyed 4' 2 German
planes and damaged another within a period of
ten days. He wears the Air Medal with six Oak
Leaf clusters, each equivalent to another Air Medal.
He is pictured here in an 8th Air Force broad-
cast from London as he dcscril)es his most unfor-
gettable thirty seconds in aerial combat. Clark
stated that his biggest thrill did not come until
after three years in the .•Mr Force and more than
forty hours of combat, when he was returning from
escorting bombers over Germany and shot down
his first F.W.-igo
He later destroyed 4,' 2 German planes and dam-
aged another — all within ten days. When he was
awarded the .Air Medal, his orders announcing the
award stated: "The courage, coolness, and .skill
displayed by Captain Clark reflects great credit
upon himself and the armed forces of the LTnited
States."
He has since returned to the States and was
married on his leave.

Lt. HENRY CLAY CONNER, JR. has a story of
two years with the native guerrillas in the Jungles
of the Philippines. His is one of the most mirac-
ulous of any of the Duke alumni in the service.
Having been reported missing for two years after
the fall of Bataan. he came out of the jungle leading
two thousand native guerrillas on Luzon, to meet
Major (Jeneral O. W. (Jriswold. Not the Blue
and White lighting song of Duke, but "California,
Here I Come" was the nostalgic chant that Con-
ner and four other .\niericans sang as they joyously
met their liberators.
In Conner's hands was the golcl-|)ip((l standard
of the 26th L'nited States Cal\ar\, which he then
turned o\er to (ieneral Criswold. I'liis Hag, they
said, had not touched ground during three years
of Japanese occupation.

He was in ihc class of "41, and in the Tail ol '40
was a Duke cheer leader. In February 1941, he
inlisted in the Air ("orps, hopiny; to become a pilot.
C olor blindness, howe\er, took thai dream away
from him and he went 10 a radio school at the Sa-
\annah Air Base. He was commissioned in Octo-
ber 1 941, and landed in Manila with a bomber
group as communications ollice on Thankse;iving;
na\' before Pearl Harbor.
One statement b\' him has been iransniitled to
this country since his return to the .American forces:
■"Take an ordinary man back in the States who
lias ne\er been overseas. He doesn't feel a thing,
except maybe there is not enough butter. He
doesn't know how much faith means. Those of
us out here who didn't ha\'e faith in .America these
last years, who didn't have something to hold to
like this flag, just went to pieces."

Pfc. E. P. BETHUME is an aerial gunner on a

on one of their missions in CUiina, the crew escaped

He writes that he has been spreading Duke fame
among his buddies and all over the Far East, and
that he is going to talk his crew into coming back
to Duke with him when he returns.

Allen's work in this unit has been highly com-

both his co-workers and the wounded alike.
Major Raymond who visited the Canadian unit
at which Frank was a guest says that "he and two
of his friends came in to see us the other afternoon
to 'borrow" a hot bath. They had been in the
thick of things and after they had bathed in hot
water, we hardly knew them — they had washed
off so much dirt and color!"
Frank himself tells of waiting to ha\'e his car
repaired after a little "tough luck." .\ (ierman
shell had ruined his radiator and front differential!

Lt. WADE H. ELDRIDGE, •41. is in the Marine
C^orps on a base in the Marshall Islands. He is
assistant group ordnance officer for an aviation
group on the islands.
On the campus, Wade was known as "Red"
and while here, was one of the Duke Blue Devils.
He Joined the Marines in .\|jril 194;^ and was sta-
tioned at Quantico. Later, he was sent to the
Aerial Mines School in \'orktown, Virginia, and
was then stationed in San Diego. Shortly after-
ward, he was promoted to a First Lieutenant.
He is pictured in his "office"' on the Marshalls,
whore he does his work of ordnance officer ... or
as he phrases it: "pushes a j^encil and sees that the
necessary work is done."
He says: "this island is just like all the rest — a
mile or two of coral rock and sand and a lot of
coconut trees surrounded by the Pacific Ocean and
that is about all." He also writes of meeting the
well-remembered Lou Fracher.
Wade's home is in Durham, and he has recently
returned on lea\'e, sto]:)ping by to \isit the campus.
Lt. DON WESTOVER, '44, is a member of the
Army Air dorps and is attached tf) the -/ith Tlum-

tioned since August 1944.
He entered the .'\ir Cloprs in Januai) 1944., and
rcccixcd his commission at Moore Field in March.
Don says that the 'Ihunderbolt fighters are the
best planes in the war. In a letter ol January 1945,
he writes: "\'(ju can see from ilic papers, without
my telling you that we're busy over here. Seems
funny that a couple of years ago I was still at Duke,
worrying for fear the war would be ovrv bcjbre I
could get into action. Well, Fm getting all the
action I wanted. Fhe Luftwaffe is stronger than
ever, and no matter how many we shoot down,
there's always another great number up again the
next day. Hoi^e you folks back home aren't get-
ting impatient for the war to end, for I think we've
still got a lot of work ahead."
He tells his family in Hastings, Pennsylvania,
that his ship is named the "Flack-Duck."

in '39, and Bill was a guard on the '42 freshman
team. Both Jap and Bill were stationed near each
other in England in the spring and now they are
both on the Western front.

Office from tiie Philippine Islands. "The civilians
here in the Philippines are overjoyed at the begin-
ning of their liberation. They are very cooperative
and are deeply grateful for our help."
Capt. Cree has done some remarkable work,
having performed a successful bfain operation on
a bo\' who had been liirec cia\s iuicf)nscious.

ALPHA
SIGMA
SIGMA
In every university there are students, who for
their outstanding qualities of an undefinable na-
ture deserve recognition of a permanent character.
Ahhough these people already occupy their right-
ful place on the campus and in the hearts of all
the students, the need for some official means of
enhancing their prestige has been filled by the Duke
chapter of the all-powerful Alpha Sigma Sigma.
Even with the rigid qualifications of admission,
there has i:)cen no lack of material this year. These
students have represented so many qualities and
actions of a censorable nature that they arc un-
questionably eligible for mention in this roll. They
are excellent cxainples of the type necessary for
the spreading of the notoriety of the organization,
here, and over the nation.

• What do soldiers like? Listed
near the top is a change into
fresh, clean underwear. It peps up
morale tremendously. So they do
their washing regularly — with a
machine gun to protect them if
necessary. The Army knows how
important underwear is to soldiers
— and buys the best for them.
• Quality in underwear is as per-
sonally important to you. Be sure
you get real value at moderate
prices by looking for the familiar
Hones label. For 43 years. Hones
has been fashioning underwear
that mokes men fee/ comfortable.
Fine workmanship in knitting and
tailoring assures the long wear
that millions of men hove come to
expect from Manes garments.
• Right now, we're doing our best
to supply our home-front friends.
But if sometimes your dealer's stock
is low, he should have more soon.
Manes production is serving both
our men in the Armed Forces and
those at home. ... P. H. Manes

"Oh, she's old!
Almost ffiirfy!"
At twenty, thirty seems ancient.
At thirty, forty is distant middle age.'
At forty, well, it'll be a long time be-
fore you're fifty.
The point is that ten years ahead al-
ways seems like a long time. Yet, ac-
tually it passes "before you know it"
. . . and you find yourself face to face
with problems, opportunities, needs,
that once seemed very far in the future.
This is a good thing to remember to-
day, when you buy War Bonds to speed
the winning of the war.
In ten years — only ten years — those
bonds will bring you back $4 for every
$3 you put into them today.
Think of what that money may mean
to you in 1955. An education for your
children ... a home . . . maybe even re-
tirement to the place and the life of
your heart's desire.
All this your War Bonds can mean to
you ... if you buy all you can today
and hold them to maturity.
It won't be long till 1955. Not half as
long as you think.

VISIONS created by the imagination
precede the achievement of any really
great accomplishment. The ability to
weave the threads of imagination into
the finished fabric is equally important.
It has been the privilege of the
EDWARDS & BROUGHTON COMPANY
to cooperate with the Chanticleer staff in
creating their vision into material form.
Such cooperation is one of the "visions"
which precede the building of a successful
business, and is a part of the working
policy of the EDWARDS & BROUGHTON
COMPANY.
