^OON after his arrival at Haverford, the freshman came to know a new
J and awe-inspiring term: the "Jitter Session". If he himself did not
have History I , his roommate did, and he saw the man who shared his room suffer through a weekly oral examination on the facts of English History. The freshman soon found, however, that the originator of these Friday morning tests was the finest lecturer he had ever heard, the fairest pro- fessor he had ever known. Under the thorough training of Dr. William E. Lunt, the newcomer learned how to take adequate notes and how to study and digest them. He found that Dr. Lunt always gave him every chance to express himself in class, and that the tall, distinguished-looking man behind the desk knew how to get at the student's knowledge of a subject.
The men who will graduate this year realize along with members of the faculty and administration that William E. Lunt Is responsible in a large degree for the high scholastic standing Haverford has always maintained.
His lectures &rQ for them a study in perfection, and his rigorous training has helped them immeasureably. These seniors, then, would like to dedi- cate this, their annual, to that man In an effort to thank him in a small way for all he has done for them.

THIS is the RECORD, the annual which is making its first appearance, with one informal exception, since 1943, when It was discontinued for the duration of the war.
This year the graduating men are representatives from every class between the years 1940 and 1948. For that reason, no attempt has been made to write a class history. We leave that work for future RECORD
Editors in years when the college has returned completely to normal.
We feel that this should more rightly be called a pictorial record for the year 1946-1947 because of certain features which appear in the fol- lowing pages. The Inauguration, for example, has adequately been covered; a photographic calendar has been included.
This book is an attempt to return the RECORD to the position it should occupy among extra-curricular activities here at Fiaverford. It Is not a perfect book, but It should provide the basis for a finer and fuller annual next year and In the years to come.

little older, "Mac ' had seen the student body dwindle to but a handful, had seen the Army come and go and now had the satisfaction of seeing a host of returning students take up their studies again at hiaverford.
Among the new members of the faculty were Messrs. Braatoy, Meade ("At ease,
gentlemen! '), Reid, Coogan, Paullin, Jon- ites, Uftord, Sass, Duisberg, Cherry, and Dick Warren, from the class of 44. Haver-

After the terriffic barrage of tests ad- ministered to new and returning students had spent its fury, someone came up with the suggestion that Abe, himself, be made to run the gauntlet of his own handiwork. Dr. Flight gave the Dean a Christmas pre- sent—a nice, big bundle of stationery. To be original, it bore the name of Dr. Flight and not that of Dean Hoag.
Dr. Reid's knowledge of detective stories highlighted the Quiz Program at Collec- tion. Other members of the faculty ap- peared on WHAV, and students were given a chance to put their mentors on the spot.

September 1 9f h saw Haver- ford College open Its gates and begin the one hundred and thirteenth year of its his- tory as the "best sma'l liberal arts college in the country". Felix Morley had departed for Washington, but among the freshmen was the man soon to become Haverford's fourteenth president, Gilbert F. White. One evening a group of re- turning veterans, wa'king up College Lane, were offered a ride by a lean, young looking man, who was Immediately asked if he were one of the married students living in Merion Annex. "No," he chuckled, "I live at No. I Col- lege Circle." The record enrollment of four hundred and eighty-eight students included not only men who were seeing Haver- ford for the first time but a'so representatives of c'asses dat- ing back as far as 1940 and as far into the future as 1950. The latter men were soon whipped into shape by the time honored means of gar- ters. Rhinie buttons and hats, matches and knowledge of the Ardmore movies. Some of them found the pond a pri- mary source of discomfort, while others performed ad- mirably in the annual C!ub Founders Show. They were a spirited bunch, those Rhinies. for committeemen's hats mys- teriously disappeared one nlqht and blossomed forth in the trees before Roberts Hall. Elm Diseases quickly followed and the trees were soon re- moved by Slim, Lew and Com- pany. There was a record enroll- ment for football, too, and Randall and Docherty had visions of another 1942 season. The soccer team, having enjoy- ed a championship season the year before, hoped to turn the trick again In their department. All-Americans "Moose" and "Beans" struggled through the new schedule of seven laps per day and did their best to kick down the practice backboard near the Observatory. And Jerry Cary was back on hand after three years' bsence. Tired either from soccer or football practice or from shak- ing hands with old friends, the boys returned to The Straw where they met another old friend, Roger the Lodger. C T B G R
The leaves began to fade and new romances were made. The cheer leaders, led by Monte Alenlclt, included Stuart Beck, Rege Collier, George Hoffman, Robert Hoskins, Bob Ldsday, Bob Stackhouse, and Jim Wood, shattered their tonsils as the first pep rallies were held. The footballers re- plied with a victory over Sus- quehanna while the soccermen took the measure of Western Maryland. Poppa Pancoast showed that married life had not dulled his prowess as a blocker. Bob White pulled the Ursinus game out of the fire in the dying moments. Jimmy Schnaars. back from the wars and happily married to Syd, had his tennis racquets restrung and set his sights on the Virginia Cup. Champion of all Panama. Jimmy has his own training table In the din- ina room. Running true to pre-war form, the football program salesmen took up the familiar cry, "Hurry, hurry, only two thousand programs left." But the programs weren't sold; Sunday morning found the two thousand in the trunk of a leaning 1935 Chrysler coupe. Audible groans were heard about the campus as the first quizzes were passed out and another crop of America's finest learned the meaning of a "jitter session." When the results of the quizzes were Icnown, South Barclay made plans to send another wave of screen salesmen to India. Committees were broken up In Washington, while hundreds of them were born at Haver- ford preparatory to the In- auguration to be held the fol- lowing month. no V6 m BG R
The Cross Country feam. in- excusably missed by the RECORD board was paced by Captain Jim GrosSolz, who was soon to be tagged "Mr. Grossman" bv a member of the English department. Messrs. Sheppard, Smiley, Carman, Rudisill, Hawkins, Hopkins, and Moore had as their man- ager "Thirsty" St. Clair, who was also dabbling in Cap and Bells at this point. Pop con- tinued to browse through Lloyd looking for copies of Jesse Abramson In the Herald-Tri- bune. The perennial anicle-taper, Doc Lealce, had plenty of busi- ness as the football team, plagued by injuries, plowed through their seven-game schedule, hitting a rock occa- sionally. At the Hamilton game, many spectators prefer- red to listen to their portable radios which announced a 0-0 Army-Notre Dame score. Chlcit Shields sucked meditatively on his pipe as Church Boteler scored three times against the boys from C'Inton, N. Y. The Swart hmore game re- sulted in a first-half victory for Haverford; the Garnet took the more Important second- half, however. The goal posts swayed and finally toppled as Bill Lee clung tenaciously to one of the uprights. The au- thorities did not deem It nec- essary to call in gendarmes on horseback, and old Walton was saved from the fate of nearby Franklin Field. The booters came through with a Thanksgiving Day vic- tory over Cornell as the rest of the College took off on an unprecedented three-day vaca- tion. Tired athletes such as "Butch" Case found time to catch up with extra-curricular reading. Biggest event of the month saw the Installation of a new Haverford president.

An unusually mild December provided the tennismen with several extra days of practice, and Chick Shields unanimously elected captain by his 1946 teammates, gave the situation a dubious eye as he wondered about his prospects for the
1 947 season. All he had to worry about were Jim Schnaars, Diehl Mateer, and the Betson
brothers, one of whom, Bob, is pictured on this page. The Radio Station, WHAV, finally convinced the campus that Swarthmore had not tried to capture their facilities the month before, and Brown lee and hiarper plugged away on the expanded controls, while
L. Lew Young battled It out on the air waves with Henry J. Taylor. And In December, Haver- ford had a distinguished visitor who quoted Irving Berlin in Meeting: "I'm dreaming of a White Christmas." Herman sei, "Up at Hahvahd, they're interested in dahtah." The Four Salt Peanuts Amussen, Gailey, Thawley, and Hauser, played the music for Bouncing Bob Murphey ("I spell my name with an ey") and Dotty to burn the linoleum In the dining room to a crisp. Whitcomb, Roche, and Edger- ton helped to empty the punch bowl with its never changing formula of orange sherbert and ginger ale. Christmas vacation began with a bang. A snowfall can- celled every outgoing flight from Philadelphia on Friday and Saturday. Spatz braved Hoag's wrath to cut a class and stand up for eight hours to Pittsburgh.

Deitsch and Massey finally won out over all other contestants. At publication time, the vic- tors were still hoping for a free trip to Chicago. "Moose" studied for his comprehensives by tooting on his licorice stick, and wound up with an instructor's job in Math at Drexel. Eight seniors made the grade and went on out into the cruel, cold world. Some students were left en- tirely weak from the grueling ordeal of examinations: these men found solace in letters from Florida and elsewhere. The editor of the RECORD became a fixed figure in the dining hall at mealtime. Never able to afford the fifty-five cent bill, his weight dropped off appreciably. He sold the Students' Council Founders Hall and the idea of support- ing a yearbook.

Volume production taught America an economic fact or two. It lowered costs, improved quality, and raised the standard of living. Volume hauling is teaching a similar lesson, for big payloads mean big transportation savings. That's why there's a nation-wide trend among truck owners to heavy-
duty hauling . . . and, consequently, to Autocars.
Autocars cost more because they're worth more!
