Dr. George M. Modlin, president

the administration IN 1946 DR. GEORGE M. MODLIN succeeded Dr. Frederic W. Boatwright as president of the University of Richmond. During his nine years as President, Dr. Modlin has woven the six divisions of the llniversity into the close-knit web tl1at is the University of Richmond. Each division has shared equally in the keen interest exhibited by Dr. Modlin. His tenure as president is characterized by a sincere interest in the individual students.

Under Dr. Modlin's leadership the University has experienced a tremendous growth in its physical plant.

The Alumni-Student Center was constructed at a cost of $300,000, to house the Alumni Office, three student publications-The Collegian ) The Messenger, and The W eh-and to provide a place for recreation and club ineetings. In the Fall of 1954 Univer-

28-

sity la~, students moved into a beautiful new structure which was completed in the sun1mer of 1954 at a cost of $400 ,000. This year has also seen construction of the Boatwright Memorial Library which vvill provide stacks for 140,000 books as well as reading and study facilities. The University building program will continue as plans get underway for a nevv structure to house the School of Business Adn1inistra ti on. This building will provide classrooms and modern laboratory facilities and \vill be available to businessmen and business organizations of Richmond and Virginia.

President Modlin with wholehearted support from other members of the ad1ninistration has led the University through another successful year. His pro1npt and decisive action enabled the University building program to move ahead. Always placing the needs and wants of the students first, Dr. Modlin continues to supply the sincere, honest, and devoted leadership needed to build an even greater University of Richmond.

Dr. Charles H. Wheeler, III, a 111ember of the University of Richmond staff since 1928, was elevated to the position of treasurer in 194 2. Under his wise guidance, institutional assets have risen to over $10,000,000. Dr. Wheeler sees that the University operates within its income and pays its bills. This is a particular con1mendable and outstanding effort in this day when deficit spending is the rule rather than the exception.

Dr. Raymond B. Pinchbeck has been a counselor and friend to thousands of University students from confused freshmen to confident seniors in his twentythree years as Dean of Richmond College. Dean

Charles H. Wheeler, III, treasurer

Pinchbeck is a familar f1gure on campus and is wellknown by his cordiality shown to everyone.

Dr. Byers Miller was elevated to the top position in the Evening School of Business Administration in 1946. Under his able administration the evening school became the largest of the University's six divisions. In 1949 the evening school and the department of Economics and Applied Economics were combined to form the School of Business Adn1inistration with Dr. Miller as its first dean.

In 194 7 Dr. Marguerite Roberts accepted the position of Dean of Westhampton College. As head of the women's undergraduate division she has guided the students through scholastic and personal dilen1mas.

She has contributed greatly to the college and particularly to the English department thro·u gh her travels around the world.

Dr. William T. Muse, Dean of the T. C. Williams School of Law, has been closely associated with the University since his undergraduate days. He is an alumnus of Richmond College and T. C. Willian1s School of Law. He became Dean in 194 7 after sixteen years on the law school faculty. Dt. Muse also is chairman of the University Board of Publications and serves on the University Athletic Council.

Another University of Richmond alumnus, Dr. Edward F. Overton, is the Dean of Summer School and is Chairman of the Department of Education. The Summer School has grown in size and offers a tremendously expanded program under Dr. Overton's direction. Every summer scores of stud en ts from many colleges and also teachers who wish to work toward higher degrees or renew their certificates are attracted to the University.

Dr. Benjamin C. Holtzclaw serves very ably as Dean of the University's expanding graduate school.

He is also chairman of the Depart1nent of Philosophy and heads the all important University Scholarship Committee.

The respective Deans of Students-Clarence J. Gray at Richmond College and Miss.. Josephine Tucker at Westhan1pton College-coordinate student activities on opposite sides of the lake. A n1ember of the faculty since 1946 Mr. Gray is an outstanding counselor and advisor to the students. I-le is also a professor of Spanish.

Miss Josephine Tucker, a Westhampton alumna , directs the social activities at Westhampton College.

She heads the freshman orientation program and encourages tl1e increased participation in extracurricular

A vital and essential role in the efficient administration of University records is played by the two registrars. Miss Helen Monsell, Registrar of Richn1ond College and the Business School, handles the University records of student grades and schedules.

Miss Catherine Bell holds the position of Registrar at Westhampton College.

A "jack of all trades and master of many" is Mr. Joseph E. Nettles. He, officially, fills the position of alumni secretary and D'irector of Public Relations.

In this job he maintains a complete ÂŁle on alumni and their activities. Unofficially, he is an advisor to The Collegian, The Messenger, and The W eh. The 1948 WEB was dedicated to Mr. Nettles for his "vital interest in University activities."

THE R1cHMOND CoLLEGE STUDENT GovERN1v1ENT Assoc1ATION for the session 1954-55 continued to function in the outstanding manner exemplified by the administration of the previous year. The Senate, under the direction of Carter Coates, worked diligently to pass a satisfactory budget promptly, organize itself, and perform the various tasks set before it.

Park Dickerson, president of the R. C. Student Government, presented the Senate with plans for a student loan fund and an outline for a "lost and found" office. T'he Senate established these student services, which proved themselves exceptionally successful during their first year of operation. Chartered bus service to the Arena, financial sponsorship of a dance utilizing a nationally known band, and the purchase and installation of a number of pencil sharpeners were among other projects of the Senate.

An executive council was instituted in order to advise the president of the Student Government, to coordinate its various branches, and to aid in the performance of the adn1inistrative duties.

Under the leadership of George Tidey, the House of Representatives contributed much to the student body. The Second Annual Family . Weekend, a House project, tended to draw the parents of students ~

The Barrack and Dormitory councils furthered better study conditions, and handled disciplinary

problems, as well as seeking various physical improvements in the dormitories.

The Honor Council, led by chairman Walt Jackson, toiled quietly to advance the highest standards in honor and ethics among the students. The council members rendered invaluable service in executing justice for all before the Honor Statute.

The Westhampton College Government functions in three departments: the executive, whose powers are vested in an executive council headed by the president; the legislative, composed of the college council; and the judicial, which consists of the honor council and two residence councils.

The guiding principle of the College Governn1ent Association, the various organizations, and the individual student is honor. All their actions are motivated by the spirit of the honor system, for the scope of the honor system extends beyond the written academic and social rules and regulations to foster the spirit of personal honor and individual integrity which are the recognized fundamentals of Westhampton College.

THE ScHOOL OF BusINESS ADMINISTRATION has been engaged in a growing process since 1920. At that time it was the economics departmen t in Richmond College. The combining of this departmen t and the evening school resulted in this present division of the University of Richmond . Today with its own dean and student governme nt, the School of Business Administr ation is seeking further enlargement, this time in the physical sense. Plans have been made and funds partially secured for the constructi on of a new building. An allowance is also being made for an increase in the student body.

the web

DITOR-I -CI-IIEF: Bob Burrus.

The 1955 Web has met the deadline! It seems impossible to most of us that there are no more layouts to be made, no more bills to be collected, and no more write-ups to worry the fraternities about. But these are only a few of the headaches that we have had this year. It is impossible to imagine what these headaches could have been if there hadn't been such wonderful teamwork between all the members of the staff.

Our staff organization meeting was held the second week of school vvith Mr. Jack Leonard from the printer's giving us a few pointers about copy and layouts. Then the ball began to really roll. Bob Burrus, editor-in-chief, completed the tentative dummy for the 195 5 W eh with Buddy Stump, Richmond College editor, Seymour Horwitz, Law School editor, Ed Willey, Business School editor, and Grace Phillips, Westhampton editor adding their contribuThe next thing we knew, it was time for the photographer to come to take pictures. At once it seemed that the whole campus began buzzing. Westhampton seniors began the old controversy of "To Be or Not To Be Draped!" It was finally decided that all would dress informally. Gail Tench, layout and copy editor, with the assistance of Diane Brown did a wonderful job of scheduling typists for every hour that the photographer was here. Virginia Jones,

underclass editor began the tireso1ne job of getting the necessary information from all the underclassmen as well as seeing that each of them had his picture taken. Beulah Boston and Jim Hutchinson, senior class editors, began to work with the seniors, but of course this was no trouble, or so most people thought until the job of seeing each one came up. Thanks to these people and their staffs the class section came through beautifully.

During this time Ann Peery, Westhampton sport) editor, and Wiley Bragg, Richmond College sports editor, along with Anne Stuart Hartz and Gent Cofer, activities editors, and George Tidey, fraternity editor, were getting their respective sections lined up. Skip Lamb completed the job with his organization of the facultv section. But the book couldn't have been completed"' without Mickey Stokes, our student photographer, being on call at all times for those last minute pictures needed.

As most of us never realize, the financial part of this year's W eh fell to the business staff headed by Angela Groth and Jack Swanson. This staff not only pounded the sidewalks for ads but also collected the money from campus organizations for their cuts.

At this point, we want to express our thanks to everyone who helped us put out the 1955 Web. We hope that this W eh will be satisfying to you, and to our staff we say "A job well done!"

A marked improvement in page makeup resulted from the efforts of a talented print shop team. Among the students who devoted their Thursday afternoons to page planning and headline writing were managing editors Jim Bardin, Don Lytal, and Marty Glenn; sports editor Bill Hatcher, and assistant editors Shelby Broughton and Carolyn Baker. Able assistance was provided by sports reporter Bill Stover.

The business staff, guided by business inanager Bob Garian, did an outstanding job with advertising and circulation. Sharing the work were Charlotte Hudson, Bob Massie, Bill Gwaltney, Loretta Landers, John Allred, Bob Winston, and Frances Gray.

Sports coverage held the attention of Bill I-Iatcher, who faithfully posted his assignn1ents each J\1ondav for a capable staff. By the end of the year he had seasoned reporters in George Tidey, Bob Heeke, Jay Kaplan, Bob Wilson, George Riggs, and Sam Jones .

The editorial page featured ~1eekly columns by Dick l(eith, Jack Edmunds, and of course, Don \J\/hitley's "Frat Chat." A faculty column inaugurated during the second semester and cartoons by Ken Mace were added attractions.

Editorials, both complimentary and critical, also appeared on page two. Many will remember the furor caused by "Levis and T -Shirts," the student government investigation prompted by "Students vs.

TYPISTS

Well, another year has rolled around, and I'm ready to hibernate for the summer. My friends, the n1embers of the University Messenge r staff, have packed avvay all the proofs and cuts and glue that I so like living with, and now all I have is dust. ~fhey tried hard, my friends. They wanted to n1akc the magazine interesting , so you would en joy reading it. But they also tried to have a truly literary magazine, which could be considered worthwhi le and which you could be proud of. As one of them told me, they can't tell whether they succeeded or not.

The editors said they had a wonderfu l staff this year: they came through so well whenever they were asked to do anything. Seems to me they especially relied on Lester Blakiston -he served as business manager, and also wrote for them- and on his assistant, Margaret Logan. And Lois Reamy kept track of the exchanges for them. The harassed editors don't kno~1 what they would have done without The Mace to draw those wonderfu l cartoons. They asked me to thank all of the writers who supplied so much ma terial- more than they could possible use- that they have stacks left over.

The Messenger , you know, is the oldest publicatio n on campus, and the oldest college magazine in the state. lVIy hard-work ing friends up under the eaves of the Student Activities Building asked me to ¡ tell youall that they hope they managed to live up to past years and also to leave a record that future staffs can be proud of. ( And I hope all of you future staffs en joy working on The Messenge r as much as this one did. ) Here's signing off for this year: see you in September.

religious activities UNIVER ITY HAS STRIVEN FOR MANY YEARS to maintain an adequate, varied, and meaningful religious program on the campus. The students may find on the Richmond campus a religious organization for practically every faith, with each organization attempting to provide its members with spiritual satisfaction and an outlet for Christian fellowship within their own denomination.

The Religious Activities Council, composed of the president and another representative from each of the denominational organizations, the elected officers, and the directors of Religious Activities, serves as the coordinating and integrating body for all campus religious life. The R.A.C. sponsors the Evening Watch services and the Vesper services throughout the year, while the pron1otion of the Religious Focus Week is probably the one most important council project.

Last fall the R.A.C. presented a playlet emphasizing the religious program of the University for the freshn1 n during Orientation Week. The conducting of an interdenon1inational and interfaith Visitation Program was another n1ajor project during the year.

1 he Student Forun1 is sponsored by the Presbyterian students on campus and is open for all interested in attending. The Forum holds weekly Sunday H

night supper meetings at St. Giles Church. Programs consisting of Bible studies, discussions of current events, speakers, and movies are enjoyed by the University members, as well as those from Union Theological Seminary.

THE WESLEY FouNDATION offers to all Methodist students the opportunity through fellowship, recreation, service, and worship to gain a broader Christian experience and to en joy a more well-rounded college life. As part of the State Student Movement, Wesley each year attends conferences at the various Virginia colleges. The organization acts as host at the Roslyn Conference every spring. Business is handled at the meetings, which are held twice a month.

The University Hillel is an independent member of the regional Hillel, consisting of Richmond Professional Institute, Randolph-Macon College, and the Medical College of Virginia. It is a unit of the B'nai B'rith Hillel Foundation for cultural and social activities of Jewish students.

The Newman Club, an organization for Catholic students, meets every first and third Sunday at St. Bridget's Church. This year it has held joint ineetings with the Catholic students of Richmond Professional Institute. This larger group has enabled the club to

Tl1is year the "Y" has continued to carry on the active progran1 which has characterized the organiz2 tion in past years. During Orientation Week the "Y" launched the social season with a very successful and 'vcll-nttended square dance on the V\1 esthampton tennis courts. Again this year the "Y" adopted as one of its projects the publication of the Student Directory.

Perhaps the n1ost worthwhile project of the "Y" is the annual Christmas party for the underprivileged children of Richmond. The party this year was highly successful, with all of the children receiving gifts and refreshments. Dean Pinchbeck, portraying Santa Claus, and Miss Monsell, telling stories, contributed a great deal to making the party a success.

university o~ richmond band T11E U IVERSITY OF RrcHMO D BAND has grown from ahnost nothing into a well knit, functioning org'1nization in the years that Mark Troxell has been the band's director. It has advanced from a football pep band, organized by Richmond College students, to a good concert and marching band of which the n tire University is proud.

Each year the band visits various colleges in this area. This year they traveled to North Carolina State in the fall, and to Mary Washington, Longwood, Rand lph-Macon, and Hollins colleges in the spring.

Here in Richmond the band played at pep rallies, ball gan1es, the Christmas party for underprivileged children, the Co1nmunity Chest Drive, and the Thalhimer' Toy Parade.

Thi year the band joined the Glee Club in the early fall to pr sent the first dance of the season.

The band has organized a pep band to pron1ote "Spider Spirit" at the basketball games. The men1bers of this band helped to support the cast of Good News in the production of that musical comedy.

The band completed a successful year with a wonderful concert in the G:¡eek Theater. At this concert the stirring strains of a symphony, as well as the lilting rhythmic passages of a n1odern novelty, illustrated the ability of the band to play different types of music under the leadership of Director Mark Troxell.

The officers that helped make this a successful year were: Willie Guy, president; Claude Anderson, business manager; Margaret Foster, secretary-treasurer; Carolyn Wood, advertising manager; Jim Garber and Tony Auby, librarians; Harry Fentress, property manager, and last but certainly not least, Tom Savage, drum major.

athletic association THE PROMOTION OF A SPIRIT of good sportsmanship, enthu iasn1, and cooperation among the stud nts is the primary aim of the Athletic Association.

Throughout the year the A.A. Board members serve as leaders in fostering this spirit by working on the organization and accomplishmen t of the various A.A. prOJCCtS. The year's activities began with a picnic for the new students during Orientation Week. At this time the A.A. Board members and the coaches were introduced and the functions of the Association were explained. During October the Athletic Association sponsored a successful card party followed by the annual Christmas dance, the Snow Ball, in December. The Song Contest in February vvas one of the most exciting events of the year. Class spirit was particularly higl1 as each class competed for first place. Dur-

ing the spring the old and new Board members spent a week-end on a houseparty at which time the year's work was completed and plans were made for the . coming year.

An annual banquet took place in May which was the climax of the year for the Athletic Association.

Letters were awarded at this time, blazer winners were announced, and the work of the A.A. was reviewed.

The Athletic Association provides a valuable service to Westhampton College in acting as an incentive to both class and college spirit. This spirit is intensified through the presentation of the Freshmen Class banner on Proclamation Night, the Song Contest, class competition in hockey, basketball and track, and Odd-Even games. Through these and other activities our Westhampton spirit continues to grow.

university hon or societies THE ATTAI MENT OF A CoLLEGE EnucATION coni t of more than just adding to one's storeho use of knowled ge. Books, homewo rk, tests, and lectures are often conside red the essentia ls of college life, but actually the extracu rricular activities, the student governm ent offices, and the honor societies form the basis for well-rou nded educati onal develop ment.

Th Univ rsity of Richmo nd has local organiz ations to meet the needs, the wishes and the demand s of nearly all of its student s. In addition , the Univ r ity is affiliated with numerot1s nationa l honorar y societies for the recogni tion of superio rity by student s in various fields of endeavo r.

The organiz ations of the Univers ity are widely varied in cl1aracter. There are religiou s and military groups, cientific and musical organiz ations, as well

as athletic , social, and honorar y orders. Some of these organiz ations are open to all, some to persons of various religions, others to elected represen tatives. Several 1naintai n their superio r ranking by a selective method , \Nhile some are open only to those who have displaye d superio r leadersh ip or academ ic abilities.

A student is urged from his earliest college days to particip ate in extracu rricular affairs for his own enjoym ent and for the betterm ent of the Univers ity.

Needles s to say, many fail to take advanta ge of the opportu nities before them. Others enter wholeh eartedly into the extracu rricular program and make their mark in campus affairs. It is to those student s who have engaged in campus activities and have received the enjoym ent, benefits, and honor from these activities that this section of the WEB is dedicate d.

Homecoming rolled around this year to find our Boat, as usual, among the best. Probably this was due to the "Boat building" get together we held the night before. The post-game buffet dinner was a tremendous success, and was attended by many of our old grads

ALL OF THE A. D. MEN came back this year with high goals and enthusiasm to make Alpha Delta take its place as a leader in Christian service and social life. Our first few meetings were filled with plans and new ideas for the coming year. Brother Tony Auby suggested we use pledge pins. Our pledges are wearing pins with an open Bible design with these words: "Jesus saves, are you?"

Brothers Bond Harris and Ken Noe gave their pins to the girls of their choice this year. Brother Harland Getts gave his choice an engagement ring. Brother Jessup, our pledge marshal, is the proud father of a baby girl.

The many revival teams that we have sent out from A. D. have not only advanced our Lord's Kingdom, but strengthened the tie

Our officers were: Harland Getts, president; Jack Connor, Vice president; Don Bowen, Recording Secretary; John Brooks, Corresponding Secretary; Clayton Sweet, treasurer; Bond Harris, Chaplain; Bill Jessup, Pledge Marshal; and Tony Auby, Keeperof-the-tent.

Robert Berlin- President

15, 1954, proved to be an eventful day for the Upsilon Rho local fraternity and the University of Richmond, when this fraternity was taken into the fold of the Alpha Epsilon Pi national fraternity. This marked a milestone for the campus as well as the fraternity by adding the twelfth national social fraternity to the campus.

Our outstanding achievement for the year was the duplication of our feat of last year; the retaining of the fraternity scholarship cup.

The rush year for Alpha Epsilon Pi came to a peak \Nhen, under the able leadership of our pledgemaster, Malcoln1 Lcvet, we pledged the "pick of the crop."

These new pledges, we are sure, will rise high in the ranks of Alpha Epsilon Pi. We feel that the advice of our devoted alumni, the national backing of AEPI, the great combination of good men, and the excellent leadership of our president, Robert Berlin, will add up to make us a great fraternity for now and for posterity.

RICHMOND 46 RANDOLPH-MACON 0 Opening the season against R-M, the Spiders were off and on offensely until the fourth quarter when

they literally ran over the out-classed Yellow Jackets.

Profiting from depth, defense, and their dependability in n1aking the big play, the Big Red and Blue yielded only 51 yards while amassing 404 yards and eight T.D's. Leading the scoring parade were Louis Wacker and Ed Santoro followed by Roland Evans, Frank Pajaczkowski, George Riggs, and Bill Bauder with one touchdown each.

This was the first score of the season against Ed's Boys, and it apparently stunned the team and opened the gates for two more V.M.I. touchdowns before the final gun.

Tommy Theodose was the whole show for Richmond.

RICHMO ND 26 CITA.D EL 0 · Traveling to Charlesto n, the Spiders encounter ed stiff opposition from the Bulldogs with both teams put-ting up stout defensive tactics the entire game. Erik Christense n, with the aid of Don Hillegass, Dave May, and Bill Thacker, led the UR forward wall in sty1nieing the Citadel attack. Both teams fought on even terms until Bauder steared the Red and Blue to 3 TD' s in the fourth period by his sensational passing.

RICH1V1 0ND 12 V.P.I. 19 V.P.I. who was favored by 20 points sweated out a stubborn Spider eleven that fought all the way. In the first half the Merrickm en came from behind to knot the count at six all on the swift running of Theodose , Pajaczkowski, and Wacker. It was Riggs who scored Richmond 's second marker before intermission, and the Spiders left the field leading 12 to 6. During the second half Richmond continued the attack, but Tech' s Dickie Beard shifted the Gobblers into high gear, and they rolled up two second half TD's and a V.P.I. victory.

RICHMO ND 7 GEORGE WASHIN GTON 0 The Spider eleven earned a hard fought victory in which the all-round defensive play vvas the basic cause. This team effort-on e of the best since 1V1errick took the helm-sho wed that its pass defense lived up to its ranking of second best in the nation. Also showed the Richmond defensive line that it was getting the respect it deserves. To wrap the victory up for Richmond , Theodose , the Golden Greek, in four r-lays romped to a late period score.

1-!0ME COMIN G: RICHl\ !IOND 13 WAKE FORES T 0 With the speedy Spider backfield deploying behind a line that was almost impregnable, Merrick's outfit displayed an offense that equalled their stellar defensive play. Theodo se called a magnificent first half and put the brakes on the Deac' s offense in the second half. With Wacker 's 39 yard run and Pajaczkowski's 11 yard TD plunge bulwark ing the ground game, the Spiders picked up 140 yards on 42 ground plays.

Theo dose hit on 5 of 10 tosses for the second TD to wrap the scoring up for the afternoon.

RICHM OND 6 NORT H CARO LINA STATE 14 With a listless attitude on the attack and a fe\v holes in their pass defense, the Spiders gave N .C. State a 14-6 victory. It was the leaky pass defense that hurt the Spiders most. It gave the Wolfpa ck its first TD just before half-time, and it hurt the Red and Blue's pride in their pass defense for the season. On paper, the Spiders gave only 61 yards on six completions, but they yielded at crucial times.

RICHM OND 0 WILLI AM & MARY 2 A 1_,urkey Day Trophy provided Richmond witl1 the desire to win, but Willian1 and Mary throttled tl1is desire by completely stopping the Merrick men in their tracks. It was W&M's Bill Marifizo who applied the hatchet when he blocked a Theodose punt that bounde d out the Richmond end zone for a safety.

CoACH HooKER AND HIS SPIDER FrvE racked up the Big Six title for the third straight year. Only defeats by Washin gton and Lee, 91-86, and by William and Mary, 93-78, marred the Red and Blue's perfect record in state competition. The roundba ller's overaJl record was a very respectable twenty wins and eight losses. Among the teams encoun tered were many top ranked nationa l powers such as George Washin gton, LaSalle, Villanova, Furman , and Temple . Richmo nd capture d four while losing four to the above mentioned titans . .Perhaps the most outstan ding high spot of the season was the Spiders 120-52 romp over Randolph-M acon for a new school scoring record; how¡¡ ever, toppling third ranked Villanova will long be rememb ered by the Spider fans.

Althoug h runnerup in the S.C. race, the Spider five finished first in the state and was widely recognized as a nationa l power due to its outstan ding play.

Warren Mills who placed on the All-Con ference and All-State fives led the team in honors. The big little guy was constan tly the sparkpl ug and main cog in Richmo nd's machin e.

baseball, THE "SILVER Fox" came up with another victorious season as the Spider stickmen posted a 9-8 season record. This placed Richmond second in the Big Six race.

Several of Coach Pitt's players were honored for their outstanding play. Bucky Luck, with a 365 batting average, and John Davenport, with a 5-2 win-lost record, were named to the Big Six first team. Captain Barry Saunders was honored for his defensive play at shortstop.

Starting the season against a potent Fort Lee nine, the Red and Blue team was crushed 10-1 and 17-0 bv a team composed of almost entirely major league ballplayers. Bob Witt and John Davenport took the losses.

Turning to intercollegiate con1petition, the Pittmen spotted Hampden-Sydney four runs, then came fron1 behind to gain a 12-4 victory. The Spiders gave Yale an 8-4 victory, and Maryland in the next encounter of the season gave Richmond a 6-5 victory. Both were ga1nes of errors. The Maryland game proved to be a ,/

turning point for the Richmond nine; the Red and Blue began to play an outstanding ~brand of ball. Ed Santoro's big bat and Davenport's control shackled VPI 4-3, while Witt lost a stellar pitching performance to a strong North Carolina by the score of 4-2. Highly regarded West Virginia managed to split a doubleheader vvith the Spiders, and a famine at the plate by Pitt's stickmen enabled Virginia to gain a 5-2 victory and ~!laryland to revenge an earlier defeat by the score of 4-3. The Spiders bunched four runs together in the fourth and fifth innings to edge the Keydets 8-5 and climb to the top of the Big Six standings. Winning three of the next four games, it appeared that the Spiders would again capture the crown. VPI, led by Jim Beard who scattered eight Richmond hits, grasped the Big Six and Southern Conference titles by downing the Spiders 10-1. A split of a doubleheader with, G.W. closed-out the season.

track, 1954-55 THE SPIDER THINCLADS opened the 1954 season by placing fourth in the Big Six Indoor Track Meet.

Frank Pa jaczkowski gained first in the broad jump with a record leap of 22' 7Y2"; plus his placing in the 60 yard dash made him Richmond's outstanding participant.

As for the dual meets this year, Coach Hardy's crew won three and lost three. Virginia obtained its victory at the beginning of the season when Pa jaczkow-ski, Louis Wacker, and George Riggs were out with injuries. As for the 93Y2-37Y2 ron1p by VPI and the 101Y2-28Y2 slaughter by VMI, these were cases wl1ere

Richmond was outclassed by a better team. Bee Lankford of VPI and Johnny Mapp of VMI spearheaded these powerhouses that were tops in Big Six and Southern Conference competition.

The Red and Blue showed promise at times. Its 79Y2-50Y2 victory over W&L displayed the Spiders balanced strength as they copped ten of fifteen first places. Ken Vandergrift, Dick Keith, and Wacker were the stars of the meet. The other two victories gained by Richmond at the expense of W&M and George Washington further pointed out the potential of UR' s track forces for fifty-five.

With the Fijis leading most of the way and time running out, the victors began hitting with pin point passes to put Kappa Alpha out in front to stay. This chan1pionship game was typical of the high caliber of play displayed by all teams in the two leagues. Although games were hard fought and rivalry rugged, no serious in juries resulted. All the games were well attended, thus strengthen ing the fact that football is the most popular spectator sport on campus.

intramural cross countr y, 1955 THE SECOND ANNUAL cross-country race or "Cake Race" as it is often called was captured by Theta Chi. Although competitio n was heavy both individual ly and team-wise, the well rounded Theta Chi's quickly collected enough points to win top honors. The event was run over a two mile course which circled the track, up the hill to the bus stop, along College Road, and returned to the athletic field. The first fifteen contestant s to cross the finish line were awarded cake prepared by the ladies of Westhamp ton.

Four years of work, Four years of fun We will ofttime look back and recall, When our friendships were bond, when sweet spirit prevailed, When laughter and song filled the dorm, We think back on the days, think back on the years, Wrap our memory cloaks round tight.

If we're sad, it will help us to know that she's there Alma Mater still stands by And our hearts need not say goodby.

Do You Remember _Hazel?

No, she wasn't that blonde you escorted to the junior prom. She was the hurricane that swept across the campus the day we dedicated the new Law School building. She uprooted trees and disturbed, to some degree, the dignity of the judges and other distinguished guests who came for that momentous celebration.

Of course, the University weathered that storm, as she has weathered wars and depressions during the many years that have passed since her modest beginning as Dunlora Academy in 1830.

T'h e night you received your degree-that was June 6, 1955-you were told that yours was more than a routine commencement. The occasion was an important milestone in the life of the University of Richmond. It was Alma Mater's 125th birthday.

When you come back to the campus for your 25th reunion and join in the celebration of the University's 150th anniversary, Alma Mater is sure you will come as one who already has achieved success in your business or profession and as one who has served your day and generation well.

How well the University will serve her constituency during the period extending from your graduation to your 25th reunion will depend, in large measure, 011 the loyalty and devotion of those who call her Alma Mater.
