Applicants intervietred by Faculty Council Last week scholarship interviews were held with 169 applicants for ad- mission into Drexel’s three under- graduate schools: Business Admin- istration. Home Economics, and En- gineering. The Dean of Men’s Office announced ttiat all the candidates were outstand- ing not only for their scholastic achievement, but also for their par- ticipation in extra-curricular activities. Accompanying the interviews this year, as in the past two years, was a scholarship examination which was held on Friday, April 9. The deci- sions of the Scholarship Committee will be announced sometime next week. Selection will be based on the result of the examination and the personal interview. There are twenty-one Board of Trus - tee Scholarships, four Gordon Preston Drexel Scholarships, and four teach- ing scholarships. These are all full- tuition awards. In addition to the above there are also a number of scholarships of $50 credited to a student's tuition. Recently, the Trustees of the Insti- tute, acting on the recommendation of the faculty, have authorized a num- ber of grants and awards which will be based not only upon academic standing, but also upon an interest in athletics. These new awards will be administered by a faculty com- mittee, and in such a way as to keep them distinct from the regular sched- ule of scholarships that are admin- istered by the Dean’s committee. Out-of-town candidates for the academic awards came from New York, Connecticut, Massachusetts, and West- ern Pennsylvania. The girls have ac- commodations at the Dormitory, while the boys were housed by the various fraternities. This arrangement made a very good impression upon the ap- plicants because it gave them a taste of real college life. The Scholarship Committee com- prises Dean Stratton, as chairman, Dean Young. Mr. MacMullin and Miss Hons of the Business School; Miss Sims and Miss Ehersole of the Home Economics School; and Mr. Williams and Mr. Baker of the Engineering School. *2*1*"'" l»y mail.

During the period be- tween wars he remained active in the New York National Guard, until he was inducted in Octol>er 1940. He fought in the Asiatic theatre in World War II, for which he wears two battle stars, the Bronze Star, and the Army Commendation Ribbon. From 1946 until the present time he was headquarters commandant of the Korea base command. While in Korea, Col. McDonough became well acquainted with the international situ- ation there, and will willingly speak to any student organizations inter- ested in learning more about the situ- ation in that sector. The Military Department has an- nounced that plans are already being made for the Military Ball which will be held on March 5th of next year.

The keen ciuiipetitive spirit which pre- vailed in the homecoming displays during Alumni Homecoming Week- end of the football season is one of the outstanding examples. A trophy was offered to the fraternity which conceived the best homecoming dis- play in honor of our Alumni. Each of the six fraternity houses presented novel and highly amusing or original displays which certainly should have inspired or enthused the most cal- loused of engineers who happened by. Another method of arousing the latent school spirit which lies dormant in the most slide-rulant of us is the Inter-Fraternity Singing Contest, more unfamiliarly known as KANO ((#reek for “to sing").

Letters to the Editor Aihletes-YourOpinionsWanted

For ShameL

a s t S u n d a y a student Faculty Tea w as planned at the Dormi­tory for the purpose of creating better faculty-student under-

V standing, and most especially to acquaint the faculty with the life of a dorm girl. All the rooms were open to inspection; the Practice House and infirmary were prepared for visitors; and the girls themselves, after bedecking the m ain lounge with flowers and preparing th$ refreshments of the day, were anxiously looking forward to the visit of their favorite teachers. Two hundred and thirty invitations had been sent out to about four hundred people, families included. Of that number twenty people came, includ­ing President and Mrs. Creese and Dean Chapman. This, in our opinion, is inexcusable. Most of the members of the faculty«are not approached often to participate in student affairs. Invitations were sent out enough in advance to warrant a good turnout. It is to be hoped that the faculty members of a college will meet the students halfway. M any of the girls were bitterly disappointed at the lack of interest displayed and feel that they were let down by the professors.

To this we heartily agree. It is too late now for anything to be done concerning this matter, but we hope the facuhy will make reparations by turning out wholeheartedly for Student-Faculty Day, M ay 8th.

Incidentally, the twenty facuUy members that came thor­oughly enjoyed themselves.

The Bloomin’ TulipsA

t LAST we have a campus. Small it's true, but it is a start. We are referring to the patch of groimd hemmed in by the Pugh Building and Red Lion Storage Company.

Time was, when this little plot was a mess of stone and trash. Now a beautiful garden with qrreen grass, hedges, and tulips, the place shows marked improvement. Especially fragrant and sooth- to the eye are the lush red and yellow tulips which are now in fvill bloom. ,

To whomever is responsible we wish to say thanks. We appreciate the touch of spring on the campus.

To the Editor of the TRi\Nf,i.F.:Dear Sir:

In the April I 6 th issue of the T r i \ > oi.f. there is a poem printed which is enti t led “ Willie ." It po^s: Little ^ illie. in his curls and sashes. Fell in the prate and was burned to

ashes.

Now the room is petting chilly.

But no one wants to stir up ^ illie.

This bit of poetry is signed “ Dot

Hughes.*’ May I congratulate Miss

Hughes on a very amusing bit of

humor.

But, wa i t! ! ! Five years ago, the

re( |uired text book for English 23

wa^ “ Reading for Our T im es” Volume

II by Blodgett and Johnson. In this

volume was a bit of poetry enti t led

“ Little Millie.” It was writ ten by one

Colonel Streamer, and poes:

Little ^ illie. in the best of sashes.

Fell in the fire and was burn t to

ashes.

By and by. the room grew chilly.

But no one like to poke up Willie.

Now I'd be the la^t one to call Miss

Hughes a plagiarist, but - How about

it. Dot?

Sincerely yours.

Sports Sentiments to FacultyAs an o u t g r o w t h of the recent

Faculty Athlet ic Committee meeting. Dr. Creese is interested in increasing both the n um ber of partic ipants in our athletic events and also the suc­cess of tlie teams in intercollegia te comi)etition. Along this line Dr. (ireese said. **I th ink that a college is incomplete without a well-designed plan of intercollegia te athletics in which the whole student body takes some interest. In many educational inst itutions, physical poise must po band in hand with mental poise. If we expect to have students who are well equ ipped to enter the industr ia l field, we must have each student en- pape in some such event. A good vigorous interest in sports, e ither as a spectator or player, is essential to round out a college education.

“ Being very much in terested in increasing the par tic ipa t ion in in tra ­mural sports. I urge every student in Drexel to engage in at least one con­test requir ing physical exertion.

“The Drexel ^ a r Memoria l money was tu rned over to the Board of Trustees, who are now working on a comprehensive plan in an attempt to reach the S5.(I00.00() goal. This will be a great boost to our facilities and then no student can blame his in ­activity on limited facilities. We can­not expect this build ing to be erected tomorrow or even the next day. but it will he built , and thanks to the work of the student body the Drexel of tomorrow will be better equ ipped to handle the athletic interests of its students.

“ We expect to have the ‘D’ B an ­quet again this year which in a small way shows our apprecia t ion to Drex- el‘s Athletes. At last year 's banquet there was more spirit and life than at any other Drexel affair. This spirit makes the ‘D’ Banquet a must in Drexel’s social life. That same spirit should be carried over into all stu ­dent activities. All these extra-cur- ricular activities are an essential part of college life, ^ e cannot call o u r ­selves a College of Engineering, of Business Adminis tra t ion or of H om e Economics, if we are not a college with a good program of extra-curri ­cular activities including many and

has happened to the new records that the various classes pur­chased for the Lodge. They appear to be among the missing, along with several other things. If this booty continues, the fee for the Lodge will necessarily become so high as to exclude some of the organizations. The Drexel Lodge was built for the use of the student body. It belongs to us and we take care of it. This would easily be accomplished if each organization would leave the Lodge in the same condition that they foimd it.

Athletics

“ W e hope in the near future t<. i„. crease our plant facilities so that llicv are on a par with any college in ih,. city. Al the p resen t time there i« a pr«>posaI before the Faculty Atlilctir (Council to build four new all-wpullicr tennis courts and a legal track wiili a four lane 150 yard straightaway. il,i. at an est imated cost of S25.000, 11, ^ . ever, even m ore important than the physical facilit ies is the morale that is shown hy the undergraduate stinlcnt body.

In an a ttempt to assist the Student Athletic Council and the F;inilly Athlet ic Council in obtaining the op in ion of the s tudents on varidu« p roblem s, this quest ionnaire has been p repared to give the student- ;m o ppor tu n i ty to voice their opinion-.

condition since last term. This is highly regrettable since the Student Building is used for m any social affairs in which the use of records is desirable. If special affairs are to be held there, why not have decent music for the dancers.

build ing and many other additions and services.

The Student Building has been a very successful venture for Drexel in that i’t has fulfilled its purpose not only of being a center of the school’s aclivi- ties which are not just confined to meetings of various organizations, but also include bill iard tables, cards and card tables, and ping-pong tables. Dances sponsored by the various or­ganizations and week-day dances are p o pu lar features. Miss McNally, sec­retary to Mr. Myers, has charge of equipm ent, for which one has only to sign the sheet on her desk. The equ ipm ent plan is run on the honor system and caters to the adult student who knows how much time the stu­dents in the past and students of today have spent and are spending to better the build ing for student use and conducts himself accordingly.

The Committee has expressed the wi^h that every student should take a personal interest in the build ing and act accordingly in the use of it. Any suggestions as to improvements or anyth ing else are heartily encouraged by the Student Building Committee, and will be acted upon accordingly. The build ing was set up for the stu­dents. and Bob Studenmund. along with Mr. Myers and the members of the Committee, wishes to extend an in­vita tion to those students who have never used any of the facilities to come in and look around, and to en­courage the daily users of the bu ild ­ing to continue.

Phi Tan Deiia H Danve in A Hit

Last week-end Phi Tau Delta frater­nity opened its social calendar with one of the gayest events of the season. "T he April Shower,” Those attending the dance were delighted with the gay arrangement of spring colors reminiscent of the many hues found in the rainbow. The ceiling was d raped in a beautiful canopy with balloons of various sizes blended into the appropria te display.

During the course of the dance many of these balloons, including three large weather balloons, were released causing them to float grace­fully throughout the Court, creating a considerable amount of excitement for those on the floor.

Many white carnations were visible throughout the crowd distinguishing the members of Phi Tau Delta from their friends and guests.

The rhythmic medleys of Syd Kaye’s “ Collegiate” orchestra proved a dancing hit with all who supported the new fraternity’s initial social event. It is the hope of Phi Tau Delta that "The April Shower” will become an annual event and that Syd Kaye will re tu rn again to our campus,

The Independent's open house dance was ever>tiling every member hoped and wished that it would be. Every­one in the main lounge from 8 to 12

was well aware of the fact that Spring ^ever is a contagious influence,

Mr, Anderson applied his able talents in directing a Paul Jones which helped to acquaint tlie stinlents with one an..ther. The dance was a huge success if we can measure it in terms of the guests.

A highlight of the evening was finding all those lucky people whose number was drawn f(>r the d«»or prizes which consisted of an anniversary I’ake. two tickets to the “ April Shower Dance.” a magazine rack, a two pound box of candy, a cigarette lighter, a niu>ical powder l;ox, a basket of fruit, a box of writing paper, an electric hot plate, and a compact.

The lucky man who guessed tlie close^t correct answer to tlie contest concerning the number of books in the library, was Dick Davis, In ­cidentally. the number of books is 91.560 his guess was 94.50(1 prize two dinners in the Warwick Room,

D ragg in ’ ReviewsRon Silverman

I cut fifth row ren te r at the opening in New Haven, C.onn., of a nevk play. •‘H«>1(1 It.” Hrit ten by Brooks and Arthur and proilured by Sammy I.amhert.It was the same seat that I had held for “ Annie (;et Yonr G u n ” ; however, there the roniparison ends. **Annie C»et ^ our (»un was wonderful ; Hold It left me holding my nose.

Despite its poor first showing, it is dt'finitely a play that every Drexel stude-nt should see. The story ren ters about rollege life in a school where nobody has to study or even p ro d u re a book during three musiral arts . En- t ranre exams must have in r luded the abili ty to sing a song and dance a few

steps.Johnny Downs is the star. He was hampered by a recent illness, lack of a

decent voice, and a poor leading lady by the name of Jean Darling, of “ Our (»ang” comedy fame. Jean Darling was very beau t i fu l ; however, her voice ki lled any pleasure I had from the first note. In Philade lphia . Miss Darling has been replaced (mercifully so) and a new young lady with a good voice has stepped into her place. I believe / e t McDonald will do <|uite well after a little t ime to get over her fright.

T he plot centers around Johnny Downs’ impersonation of a woman in a college play, and a fr iend entering “ her" picture in a beauty contest for Holly­wood. Just at the l ime he loses a lot of someone else’s money, he is notified that he has won the contest and from then on, the s i tuation gets funny. Red Buttons, a natural comedian, makes you want more of his antics, and a young red head, with wings on her shoes, by the name of Patricia Wymore , turns in a show stealing perform ance.

T he songs are not the kind that l inger in your head day after day. How ­ever, they are pleasant and. when put across properly , they will appear in a few Juke lioxes.

There are two big scenes that rem ind you of a three ring circus. In the c(»llege ice cream parlor, where no one ever buys anything, they do a dance to the title song that gets you so dizzy that you want to scream for quiet . The title song itself, as usually happens, will get nowhere.

The other big scene is an in te rpre ta t ion of Hollywood with Larry Douglas, a Philade lphia boy with the only real voice in the cast, singing. This one isn’t so confusing. You can gel the general idea of what is going on. How­ever, it is run off like a high school play and doesn’t leave you with any feeling except to go home.

In New Haven, the play didn 't look as if it would ever reach Philade lphia . Vi'ilh plenty of guts, they tried it here and the perform ance I saw convinced me that they were trying but without much basis. T he days of seeing any play just because it is a stage production are gone. “ Hold I t” may go on Broadway and run for a few months, but it cannot hope to compete with the good musicals now on the big street.

Peg (of the Mexican I.eague) Lee, has rel^eased, througlT Capitol C han ­nels, her first a lbum . She calls this new book “ A Rendezvous with Peggy Lee,” and who wouldn 't like to, espe­cially after eyeing the fine p icture of this blonde beauty on the cover. Hubby Dave B arbour assembles the ork for this date and very capably ac­companies the ( ’arlos Gastel prodigy. The tunes waxed in this book by “ Pretty Peggy,” are “ 1 Can’t Give You Anything but Love,” “ Why Don't You Do Righ t” (that should sound famil ia r) , “ Don’t Smoke in Bed,” “Them There Eyes,” “ Stormy W eather” and “ Deed I Do” . . . , “ Manana,” and then this. My, my, Mrs. Barbour, what big income tax figures you’ll have.

The RCA plat ter pressers have just released Louis Prinia 's arrangement of “ I Feel So Smoochie” (the Surah Vaughn h i t ) , und an original enti t led “ Betty Blue.” Louis and outfit give out with everything on both sides, as usual, and Luigi’s” voice is still on the “ Angelina” kick.

A break in the column to let all those a rdent followers of Jo Stafford know that their favorile songbird has p lanned to curry Puul Weston, the Capitol house band leader, with her us a perm anent fixture, but with a husband und wife contract.

The other day, Roy, the record man a round at Albern’s, played one of the finest pair of sides I have ever heard. This jazz offering was by the Charlie Ventura group, featuring Nat “ King” ( 'o le on the Steinway, and Gene ( “ Lover” ) K rupa on the hides . The tunes worked over on this needling were “ Body and Soul,” and “ S tom pin’ at the Savoy.” Put these numbers <»n your must hear list, for they are great, and the best part of the whole deal is that Charlie und his o u t f i t and the King Cole Trio , are supposed to go on tou r this sum m er making lots of this same music in the country’s top niteries.

Speaking of the King Cole Trio, this column reviewed ano ther one of said g roup’s hits about two months ago. T he tune is now on the market, and there is nothing lik^e it. Naturally I ’m referring to the “T r io ’s” Capitol recording of “ Nature’s Boy,” backed up by the sound track hit of “ Bishop's Wife,” “ Lost April .” Nat uses a full band beh ind his vocul efforts, com­plete with strings, oboes, etc. Even far great'er than the “ Christmas Song.”

Several of the radio shows being arridental ly cut off the air about a fortni 't ago reminds us that , despite all the groaning by the lis tening pu b ­lic during the past few years concern­ing the low calibre of most radio shows, there has been of late a notice­able decl ine ra ther than any improve ­ment. From lis tening to many of today’s programs one would get the impression that the sponsor is financ­ing a show for public service allow­ing th - public a half hour to take a shower and miss absolutely nothing on the air.

The worst shows of all are. as usual, on during the day. The soap operas feature a steady parade of divorce, infidelity, arson, m urder , and just plain misery that would gall all but the most insatiable sadist. Things just can't be as bad as tbese shows pain t them or suicide would become so common that a reservation would be necessary for space to dive under a subway train. In the afternoon the 930 Club, which we suppose is of­fered as a pau»«e in the day’s t r ibu la ­tion (pardon us, Henry W adsworth), sports several hours of some of the most inane drivel to be heard, sand­wiching a record in now and again to keep the l is tener from climbing back into his straight-jacket and chant­ing “ Bongo. Bongo. Bongo

Conies nightfall and the mood changes, but in the quality line there 's no appreciable difference. W’e are cursed with a rash of audience pa r ­ticipation shows, which differ from the old t ime amateur hour mainly in the unfor tunate lack of the hook to drag the rankest talent offstage. A m ember of the audience steps to the mike, mutters his name and address, and by answering correctly some toughie like “How many days hath Sep tem ber?” is rewarded with a sack-full of ten dolla r bills equal to the annual wage of the average honest citizen. If he should be so unfortunate as to answer incorrectly, manna falls. After get­t ing a banana cream pie shoved in his face and being generally the life of the party, our contestant is presented with the th ird party nomination for president and the back door key to the U. S. Mint all under the heading of entertainment. A sad commentary, indeed, on civilization in ibis, the age of the a tom—the milleniuni.

'Peurs thut the campaign idea in ­augurated by the freshmen is with us to stay, for better or worse—the idea of planting pictures of the candi­dates in the Court for all and sundry to behold. Not that we consider strewing up the Court with pictures of the candidates any particular im ­provement over the old system—we re­fuse to be swayed by any such b land­ishments until they start running leg art photos. But the cumpuigning seems to be u step in the right direc­tion. By this time next year we hope to see brass bunds, torchlight purudes, und free beer for the voters in good old-fashioned political-rally manner. This new note in campaigning may also lead to u completely new line of th inking in the choosing of cundi- dates. The questions raised ubout them will cliunge from “ Is he u good m un?” und “ Whut fraternity is he f ro m ? ” to “ How does he p h o tograph?” We may not get the best officers in the world but tbey shore will be p u r ty !!

The combined pitching efforts of H um s and Knapp gave Hrown P rep a 1-1 victory last Saturday afternoon over the Jay-Vee baseball squad at l irexel field.

The Dragons failed to produce m ore than two hits th roughout the n ine innings of play while the Hrown- ies cashed in on six hits and five errors .

Very little hitt ing was done in the early innings of the bull game. Rich, the Dragon’s starling pitcher, gave out the first hit of the game in the opening inning to Sperling, the first man at the plate. Sperling succeeded in getting us far as second base be ­fore Rich could bear down and reti re the side,

A series of three hits in the fourth inning gave the P rep club a 2 run lead. Kitlas, Kane and Molen batted out singles in rapid succession for the acquisi t ion. Again Rich checked liis throwing arm, a lthough a little tot* lute by this time, and reti red the side by st riking out the remaining two batters.

An er ro r by Hurty and a double f rom Rich combined to give the Krown P rep st ickmen unother run to tack to their score in the fifth.

Wultmun repluced Rich on the hi ll in the sixth by orders from Couch McMuins. After hurl ing for two in ­nings, he wus re t i red in favor of Kulp.

In the top liulf of the seventh, Crest crossed the plute fur the Hrownies after receiving u free t icket to the bugs with u wulk. A hingle und u long fly bull puved the wuy for the 81’ure.

After being delayed for a week due to inclement weather, the I-F soft­ball seas«m is finally un d e r way. The first games were ftlayed Tuesday eve­ning at Drexel Field when T KE. de ­fending champions, met Pi K ap ; Alpha Pi. last year runner-iips. met SAM, and Thela (Ihi was opposed by Lambda Chi.

All of the games got off to a late start, due to a mix-up in field loca­tions. and once they were under way, darkness cl<»sed in fast. The longest game was the 7 inning match between IK K and Pi Kap. The oilier two games were called at the end of 5

innings.Charlie Fernow, the T K E liurler,

was in mid-season form as he l imited the Pi Kap sluggers to 5 hits, and held them scoreless until the last in ­ning. In the top half of the 7tii. Shelly and Dearolf of Pi Kaps each picked out one of P'ernow’s change of pace pilches and knocked it a coun ­try mile . Fernow, at this time, changed tactics and whiffed the last two m en for the second and th ird outs. T K E scored their 6 runs in the first three innings on 5 hits and a few Pi K ap errors . F rom then on Norton, Pi K ap pitcher, kept the T K E ’s well in hand.

The power-laden Alpha P i ’s started the season off with a bang when they smothered DubrofT, SAM pitcher, with a barrage of 12 runs «)n 17 hits. T he big gun of the Alpha Pi onslaught was their hurle r . Ser­mon, who limited the SAM’s to I runs (UJ I) hits and at the same time led his team in the hitt ing attack. The long ball h i t ler of the fray was Kol- lash, who rapped out a ro und tr ipper . Final score. Alpha P i ’s 12, SAM’s 4 .

In the rem ain ing loop game, Thela Chi ju m p ed to a (piick lead and then p ioceeded to widen the gap as they came out on the long end of a 9-3

score over Lambda Chi. Watton l im ­ited Lambda Chi to 3 runs on 6 hits and had the game well un d e r control th roughout, while Keys, pitching for the losers, a llowed Theta Chi 9 runs i»n 9 hits. The hits were well dis­t r ibu ted for both teams, with Crangle. of the winners, high man with 2 . Captain Douglas Anderson, of the winners, gathered himself a 4 bagger.

As part of the general policy for the coming year, the Faculty Athletic Committee with the approval of the Faculty and Hoar«i of Trustees has ap ­proved a system of grants and awards whicli will be available to students actively engaging in athletic contests. This proposal was made hy the Faculty Athletic (iouncil and was con­sidered at two meetings of the F’aculty which approved the plan without any dissenting votes. Subject to certain regulations , this proposal was ap ­proved by the Hoard of Trustees on April 15.'

The plan anticipates granting as many as sixteen awards for the year of 1948. these awards will in no case exceed tuit ion ;md fees for a two-year period to any one recipient. T here ­after. no more than eight such awards will be given in any one year. The plan also provides for the granting of no more than SISO.OO per year in the form of a remission of tuit ion to an upperclassman who has not p re ­viously received a two-year scholar ­ship. Such awards to upperclassmen may be given s»» as not to exceed a total of $2 .0 <)ll.l)() in any one year.

The awards will be distr ibuted by a special Athletic Award Committee composed of the following persons; Chairman of the Scholarship Com­mittee. Chairm an of the Athlet ic Com­mittee, Director of Athletics, m ember of the Admissions Hoard of the ('ol- lege concerned and (loach of the sport concerned.

These awards are distinct from and in addit ion to the regular academic scholarshi])s. The recipients of these awards are academically subject only to normal eligibil i ty re(iuirements.

In additi(»n to the awards as just described and as part of the general policy form for the coming year, three m embers of the Faculty Athletic Com­mit tee have been asked to serve as m embers of an executive council of the F.A.C. This council will con­sider any nuitters that require the prom pt attention of the Athletic De­partment. At juesent they are work ­ing out the d t ta i ls on the scholarship policy ou tlined above.

Our intercollegia te program is m odera te compared with those of many o ther colleges. As a technical school we probably will never be able to compete on an athletic basis with many of these o ther schools. How­ever. this policy shows the intention of the Adminis tra t ion to make it pos­sible ft>r an a th lete who desires an education to get one. The unanimous acti«»n of the Adminis tra t ion in in ­augurat ing this policy should be an indicati(ui of a better athletic program in the future.

Details concerning this scholarship program are avai lable from any m em ­ber of the Athletic Award Committee.

A coaching staff will be announced next week.

Haverford College felt the sting of the mighty Drexel Dragons, laM Saturday afternoon, as they absorbed a 22-5 whitewashing on their Main Line field.

Captain Carl HufTlap led the slaughter with four safeties and he uIm. scored five runs. One his his powerful blows went for a home-run with tuo on in the seventh.

The game might well have been played at Ebbet ts Fie ld, Brooklyn. I ’.S.A.. for it had all the laughs and c«»lor of a Dodger farce. H om e r u n s —walks wiili the bases loaded pi tchers catching foul ba lls b eh ind hom e plate outfielder- t r ipping over themselves bunts rolling into the outfie ld leaping one-handed catches, and last but not least. tw») umpires .

The Drexel hatters pounded out n<» less than twenty hits off th ree Haver­ford hurlers.

Marv R(»senbaum. after a shaky start, settled down and p i tched anotli.r fine game. This gave Marv his second decision in as many starts.

Haverford pushed a tally across in the first. That gave them a sh(.rt M) lead. Drexel 's pi^rade of stars erased the ir m arg in in the ve ry next frame.

T he Dragons sewed up the contest in the top of the second. Twelve Drexel batters faced Jerry Howe in this n igh tm are inning. T h la n d started the ball rol ling by doubling to left. “ Hit i t is” was very contagious at this point and by the time the second inning rh u b a rb ended , seven hits had produced eight big runs for the Dragons.

T he Bossickmen kept pecking away at H averfo rd p i tchers and picked up three runs in the th ird , one more in the fourth and a pa ir in the fifth.

To add insult to in ju ry the Boss ickmen ba tted a ro u n d in the seventh and picked up six more runs. MacWilliams, D enham , Schwab und BufHap collected extra base blows in this stanza.

V hi le D.I.T. was feasting on Haverfo rd pitches the Main L ine boys picked up two more runs from “Rosie” and l ibe ra ted two from C har l ie Eisenbise.

Drexel fniished the day’s festivities by tal lying two m ark e rs in the final frame.

Besides Bufllap, o ther Dragon batters who collected m ore than one iiil were: Rodgers (3 ) , Brown ( 2 ) , Uhland ( 2 ) an d M acW illiams ( 3 ).

For lionors in the extra base depar tm en t we find Bufflap with a homer and d<.uble Schwab with a three-bagger, and Brown, U hland , MacWilliams. Barclay and Rosenbaum with doubles.

Je rry Howe honiered for Haverfo rd in the e ighth. How e was the losing I)itcher.

On Tuesday afternoon. Drexel’s tennis team made their initial ap­pearance of the season, losing to Swarthmore O-O. The match had been or iginally scheduled for the past Wednesday but had been cancelled because of rainy weather.

Drexel drew as their first opponent a Swarthmore team which ha(l been practicing the past winter on the in­door courts which their college pro- vides. This extra three months’ prac­tice coupled with the fact that Drexel has been hampered continuously by rain and cold weather proved to be the difference between the walk-away match and a match that otherwise probably would have turned out to be a nip-and-tuck affair.

When the day’s matches were over. Swarthmore had taken nine straight matches from the gold-clad racketnien.

Milt Parmet. standout of last year’s squad, took on Swarthmore’s No. 1 num, Morris Rodenger, and came out on the short end by scores of 2-6, 4-6; Drexel’s Harold Naidoff bowed to Howard Frankel 1-6. 1-6 ; Arch Knisely, off to a slow start, began to find himself in the second set but he was handed a 0-6, 3-6 setback; George Hem phil l then proceeded to salvage a litt le glory for Drexel as he suc­ceeded in extending his match with B«d) Rossheim to three sets before going down to defeat by scores of 4-6, 6-4, 4-6; Drexel’s Ed Thompson kept Ned Brown moving before los­ing out 4-6, 3-6; and in the final sin­gles match of the day, Wally Sonntag was handed a 64 . 6-1 defeat at the hands of Bill Osier.

Drexel’s double teams fared no bet­ter than had the single match com­peti tors. In the first doubles match. Rodenger and Frankel teamed up to defeat Parm et and Knisely, 6-3, 6 -0 ; Sw arthm ore’s Kirchner and Osier, though extended, tu rned back Thom p­son and Naidoff 6-3, 6-4. In the day s final match. Brown joined hands with Tom Saunders to defeat Sonntag and

Bill Meis in two straight sets, both

ending 6 -2 .

(.iiach Perchonock, Drexel coach, niade it known that he expects the team to improve as lli*> season progresses.

Drexel's next home game will be again Lehigh on the home courts at 16th and Ilaverford on Friday. April 30.

The first meeting of the Women's Athletic Association this term tlis- closed a busy schedule for tin* organ­ization. Besides the annual bancpu't given each spring in honor of the girls competing in sports, the W.A.A. is sponsoring a field day out at the lodge for some of the Philadelphia and Suburban schools, in the begin­ning of May. The real |)urpose of our |>rogram, other than providing a good lime for girls in city high schools who have little access to a sports field, is to give these prosjiective college girls a little insight as to what Drexel has to offer in girls’ sports. The program is to include softball and other games with a doggie roast and campfire to bring the day to a close.

The final returns on our W'inter Carnival revealed that we cleared a little over $300. Some of the money will again be devoted to sending our hockey team to hockey camp, and some will again be turne<l over to the Drexel War Memorial Fund.

Next Wednesday, April 21, the W'.A.A. will play hostess to Mr. ('.lay- ton Shenk. who will give a dem on­stration and lecture on archery. Few people realize the skills and fine tech­niques involved in this sport—a point which Mr. Shenk will make an ef­fort to prove in his talk, demonstra ­tion. and the two films he will show on the techni( |ues of hunting with a bow and arrow. Students Nancy An­derson and Ben Hallowell will assist Mr. Shenk in his demonstrations. Ben does actual game hunting with the bow and arrow. All jun io r Robin Hoods are welcome next Wednesday. April 21, at 3:30, in the women’s gym to learn that there is a lot more to archery than meets the eye.
