cises of Lafayette Collet;e this
morninR. Tliis was the first time in
the history of the college that the
exercises were held out-of-doors,
in order to accommod.ite all of the
guests of the college.
Dr. Living.-ton F a r r a n d , President of Cornell L'niversity, delivered the Commencement Address.
Dr. F a r r a n d took as his general
theme "The Contemporary Challenge of Self G o v e r n m e n t . "
Rapidly sketching the struggle
for liberty of the English speaking
people and the part played by our
colleges and universities in the development of .American ideals and
standards, he discussed the confused and baffling situation which confronts the people today and emphasized the solicitude with which not
only Lafayette but all colleges are
watching *.he annual gri.-t of graduates to whom tho country must
look for leadership in the future.
Especially deprecating the efforts to check fj'eedom of inquiry,
opinion and teaching, the speaker
said: " T h e r e can be no doubt that
the liberty for which o u r fathers
fought through centuries in E u r o pe, the liberty which they came to
this continent to establish is being
, challenged in the home of their
children. The t y r a n n y of uninformed public opinion, the oppression of
popular prejudice is far more dan: g e r o u s than t h a t of the autocrat
and we are facing t h a t t y r a n n y t o day."
Civic Stnndardt
'Alluding to the 'discouraging
exhibitions of political cowardice
in Congress and legislatures,' Dr.
F a r r a n d .said: " I t is not to my
mind unemployment, poverty and
di.stress, not economic uncertainty,
n o t even social dislocation which
causes the gravest anxiety.
The
most disquieting signs of the time i
in our democratic life is an appare n t loss of standards in o u r citizen.ship which permits t h e sway of
unworthy motives always readly to
a p p e a r in periods of economic depression. At the same time, 1 can
n o t believe t h a t the demagogues
60 painfully
prominent
today,
' speaks with the voice of the . \ m e r ican people."
Speaking of the traditions of
Lafayette College, Dr. F a r r a n d appealed to the gradifctes to strive
to maintain in o u r national life
" t h e priceless asset of individual
o p p o r t u n i t y — a privilege, however,
not a licen.-e to be exercised at the
cost of the common good.

"The dance
whith is held in the last week of

The two bands that have been
chosen have an enviable reputation locally as producers of an
excellent b r a n d of danco music.
Last year (Jeorge Doddy and his
orchestra furnished the music for
dancing and this year the committee has been f o r t u n a t e
in
securing two bands of the same
high calibre. As two bands have
been obtained a battle of music

I're.'-ident Lewis gave the Phi
lieta Kappa Address at
Hobart
College on May 27. This was a
part of the commencement exercises of the college in which Dr.
Lewis gave the principal speech.
The text of his speech follows:
" O n e who
choo.ses
Abiding
Values as fhe subject of hia address upon the occasion of a college commencement m a y well be
accused of dealing in the obvious;
of contributing to a
situation
which affords infinite amusement
to the humorous columni.sta. I am,
however perfectly willing to join
the innumerable company of the
"Beyond
the Alp.s Lies I t a l y "
orators, if I can b u t impress upon
theso seniors what seems to me to
be the most important thing which
they may obtain from the experiences which have been theirs during the past four years. I would
not bo so sure were I speaking before the students of some other
institutions t h a t the experiences I
have in mind had touched them.
Hut H o b a r t College, which holds
an honored place in the academic
world because of the sincerity and
dignity of its offerings; because it
is in t r u t h a stronghold of culture, does breed a mighty power
in those who havo eyes to see and
ears to hear, and t h a t power finds
its inception in the g r e a t principles which have stood the test
of centuries and which form the
foundation of o u r economic and
social system.
In a time of upheaval and
nervoifs
excitement
colleges like H o b a r t in maintaining a serene and scholarly attitude
a r e rendering
a service
from
which
future
generations
will
benefit immensely.

Marquis Players Enact ^Twelfth Night'
in Front of South College Wednesday
The
Shakespearean
comedy,
"Twelfth N i g h t " was presented on
the lawn in front of South Collegt
Wedne.sday afternoon by the Marquis Players.
. \ large g r o u p of
parents,
townspeople, faculty and student*;
gathered in front of South to witness the excellent
performance
given by the thespians in their interpretation
of this
rollicking
comedy of the 17th century enacted u n d e r the direction of Professor Albert H. Gilmer, of the dep a r t m e n t of speech and dramatic
art.
Laid in a d e q u a t e settings and
played in costume the effort of the
Marquis Players proved
highly
amusing and was well received by
the audience. The .scenes, which
we*-e a r r a n g e d by J . F . Foster, of
the d e p a r t m e n t of
speech
and
dramatic a r t , lent the desired atmosphere to the production and
the discriminating .selection of
costume furthered
the hilarious
spirit of the farce.

The many diverse c h a r a c t c n of
the play proved well cast and the
(•layers t u r n e d in highly enjoyable
and amusing performances. J o h n
Ensign, as Duke Orsino, gave a
fine p o r t r a y a l of the romantic
lover who wooed the fair Olivia.
.Mrs. Hugh Moore expertly enacted
the role of Olivia, while Mrs.
Joseph M. Weil proved pleasing in
the p a r t of Caesario, the masquerading Viola who courts Olivia for
the Duke and finally wins him for
herself. The melancholy Malvolio
was well done by Robert F. Germann.
P e r h a p s one of the best performances of the afternoon was
given by Morris Allen as that rollicking
roustabout.

A MESSAGE FROM T H E PRESIDENT
To the Alumni of Lafayette College:
Again we welcome you to t h e campus with t h e
sincere hope t h a t your visit here will be full of
happiness with renewed friendships and with deepened loyalty to Alma Mater. Today m a r k e d a significant development in the relationship of the college
to the alumni. At t h e Commencement Exercises we
presented to the members a group who h a d been graduated fifty years ago, certificates of honor.
More
than twenty stalwart sons of Lafayette stood before
the c h a p e f chancel and received t h e felicitations of
the college upon their worthy records of achievement.
In presenting the certificates I h a d the pleasure of
saying t h i s :
"MEN O F L A F A Y E T T E : we g^-eet you with
infinite admiration and affection. You are t h e justification of your Alma Mater. *By their fruits ye shall
know them.' You have contributed signally to t h a t
epoch in the life of America which h a s been richer
in scientific development, in social advancement, in
spiritual emancipation than has any other. By the
authority of the Board of Trustees of Lafayette College I now present to you these Certificates of Honor
which carry with them the congratulations of your
collegr upon your completion of fifty y e a r s of honorable and useful activity, and the sincerest wishes
for happiness in the days which lie a h e a d . "
And in no less earnest terms would we greet
the men of other reunion classes: men who in t h e i r
daily lives exemplify those fine qualities which we
are h a p p y to believe were developed in t h e days of
undergraduate experience here.
Faithfully yours,
Willi?m Mather Lewis,
President.
FAREWELL SENIORS
Four years ago some three h u n d r e d green freshmen entered the portals of Lafayette fresh from high
school and prep school commencement. They felt as
if they owned the world, they were unacquainted with
college customs, they preferred merriment and night
life to solid study. They lived from day to day, never
worrying about the future; but always r e a d y to t a k e
^emh e.civt as it presented itself.
Gradually they became acclimated to underg r a d u a t e life and entered, .shyly at first, into all activities of the campus. In each succeeding y e a r they
took the place of the previous class. They more than
filled the .shoes of their predecessors; they built up
tradition with each event and activity. Finally, at the
beginning of their last year at Lafayette they assumed full leader.ship of every campus activity. U n d e r
their careful guidance they left a string of successful functions in their wake. Nothing they undertook
proved a failure.
'
When we look back over the four years which
they spent here we, for the first time, realize to what
full extent their activities have been. Members of
the class are numbered in every extra-curricular activity. The class h a s produced outstanding athletes
as well as outstanding scholars. College records were
m a d e and held by members of the present class.
Seniors have piloted athletic t e a m s through undefeated 9ea.sons. Phi Beta K a p p a has received more
than its quota of members from t h e class.
Now, four years after t h a t first Calumet session,
we are about to witness the departure from these
sacred hails of one of the greatest and best senior
groups ever to be graduated here. It is with extreme
regret t h a t we watch their departure. During their
four years sojourn they have become true Lafayette
ideals; they have left behind their bashfulness and
shyness of their rosh y e a r ; their lorrdlineas of tbeir
prep school commencement and have gained a' fuller

series, 'J-3. He allowed but eight
well scattered hits «nd faTined six.
Sid Weiss and Kenny Sausville both
hit home runs.
Lafayette rallied in the last 3
innings of the second game between these two ancient rivals, to
duplicate the score of its former
win. But unlike the first game, it
was a fortunate day for the Maroon, because until the seventh it
had been trailing 3-1. In the seventh, the Lehigh pitcher suffered
an injury to his throwing hand and
was forced to retire. Succeeding
Brown and White twirlers were un
able to hold the Maroon batsmen
in check. Led by Kenny Sau.sville,
the Lafayette attack began to
function from the seventh inning
on, and their rally proved powei^
ful enough to overcome their opponents load and ride to a decisive
triumph.

semi-professional team, the Phillipsburg Cubs. Baldwin pitched
the entire game and was charged
with the defeat, although he allowed no earned runs and struck
out eight men. The winning run
was scored when Stamus, Phillipsburg backstop, stole home.
Leopards Tamed
In the second contest with Moravian, the up-valley boys showed
a complete reversal of form. They
hit Rippard who had
effectively
subdued them a few weeks previous, quite freely, and scored six
luns. Tne Lafayette big-guns, however, were silent, and the final
score was 6-2, Rippard being
charged with the loss.
The squad next invaded Navy,
with Dumont assuming the pitching burden. Again the opposing
batsmen clubbed the
Leopard
hurler quite freely, and again the
Lafayette batsmen could not seem
to get going. Dumont was charged with his first intercollegiate defeat in twelve starts.
Before they had completely recovered from the drubbing administered by the Middies the Maroon
was nosed out in a slugging contest with Muhlenberg. The final
score was 13-11, a startling contrast to the close contests played
between the squads representing
the two schools last year, when
Lafayette suffered two of her
three collegiate defeats at the
hands of "Horsie" Heist 3-0 and
2-0. This was Muhlenberg's first
game of the season. Rippard and
Dumont saw service in this contest, the former being charged
with the defeat.
Revenge was achieved the following
Wednesday,
when
the
Leopards with Baldwin on the
mound, and aided by the bats of
Sid Weiss and Joe Steinhart turned the tables and defeated
the
Mules for the first time in two
years. The score was C-2. Baldwin struck out six men allowed
five hits, and finished his twentyseventh inning of collegiate baseball without allowing an earned
run.
Engineers Lose
Our traditional
rivals
from
Bethlehem were the next opponents to visit Fisher Field. With
Dumont on the mound, pitching
his usual steady game, the Leopards had little difficulty in overcoming the Engineers, 9-3. Sausville had a home run early in the
game to put the Leopards out in
front.

W h o Pay Their Tribute
On Tuesday eveninp. May 21,
the ontire student body dined in
the Alumni Memorial Gymnasium
in spontaneous tribute to William
Coughlin,
Lafayette's
veteran
baseball mentor.
Bill came here to Lafayotte in
1921,
shortly after he was honorably discharged from
the
war
workers. He ser\'ed in France
and Germany as an organizer and
coach of the ball teams organized in those countries during and
following the war.
During his stay at Lafayette,
Coach Coughlin has consistently
produced winning teams.
President Lewis characterized him as a
coach who put scholastic achievements first in a college and who
can develop good ball teams
without having material handed
to him.
Enviable Record
In his sixteen years at Lafayette, Coach Coughlin has compiled
an enviable record. His teams
show an all time percentage of
over seven hundred points while
he has lost but one series to Lehigh and none to Rutgers in
Middle Three competition.
Many well known figures of the
baseball world were among the
speakers at the dinner.
Among
these were Jimmy Foxx, hardhitting Athletic backstop, who related some of his experiences
while in Japan, on the recent
Asiatic trip of Americau All-Star
ball players. Among his anecdotes was an especially good story
of a certain ambidextrous pitcher
of Nippon, who, when he had
gotten himself in a tough spot,
turned in a phenomenal, unassisted triple play.
Another interesting story was
toW by
Elden Auker,
of
the
Detroit Tigers, who described his
introduction
to Major
League
baseball when Charlie Berry, Lafayette
alumnus, then playing
with the Chicago White Sox talked him into .striking out.
Charlie Berry, now with the
Athletics and Gerald Walker of
the Tigers were guests. A communication from Connie Mack
congratulated Bill on his service
to baseball and recalled the stirring days when Bill was captain
of the champion Detroit Tigers.
Other speakers were D. LeRoy
Reeves, Graduate Manager of
Athletics and
Charlie
Reilly,
sports writer of the Easton Express, and Charles Nesi, '35, Cap
tain of varsity football.
The committee in charge of the
affair was headed by Sidney
Weiss, '35, captain of this year's
baseball team.

Season's Summary

Swarthmore.
Lafayette was defeated, 9-0. Swarthmore, conquerors of Ponn, was the strongest
team which the Maroon encountered throughout the .sea.son.
A southern trip followed on
which George Wa.shington ami
Navy formed the opposition. The
former dofoatcd the visitors 6-3,
while the Naval Academy was the
winner 9 0 .
For tho first time in five years, a
Maroon lacrosse team scored a victory, ,ind this year's twelve won
not only one but four encounters
in an extremely stiff schedule.
Wins were recorded over New
Y'ork University, Montclair A. C ,
and two victories were gained over
Lehigh.
Nine veterans returned
from
la.st year's team and materially
benefited in their play from the
experience gained then. It was a
powerful group which faced Montclair A.C. in the season's opener.
In addition to the veterans, a freshman. Marsh Teel, was outstanding.
Teel, a Southerner and familiar
with the game before his coming to
Lafayette, played sensationally.
The high -scorers of the team
were Capt. Walton, Dave Leeteh,
and Teel.
These bore the main
share of the Maroon offense.
Montclair was defeated 6-4.
Princeton was the first to overcome
the Leopard stickmen, winning by

With but one remaining collegiate game, which will be played
this afternoon, the Lafayette varsity baseball team has won eight
and lost five contests to date.
However, out of three non-collegiate games, two have been
played, and both have re.-^ulted in
defeats for the home forces.
This brings the present collegiate percentage of the squad to
