Balance
T IS not entirely coincidental that Haverford finds itself going through a marked
period of transition at a time when the tempo of world events has been accelerated. For
evidence of the transition period at Haverford we need only to watch the expansion of
activities along many lines. The addition
of new professors to the faculty and of new
courses to the curriculum gives evidence of
academic advances. Coupled with these instances there has appeared a general awakening of interest in world affairs, and a
desire on the part of many undergraduates
to get at the underlying factors in current
history.
All of these changes at Haverford come
at a time when higher education must prove
its value — both to the individual and the
nation as a whole. The question of whether
college students will continue to receive
exemption from compulsory military service
until their studies are completed is evidence
of st least one line of attack on the value of
education. There is also, now as in the past,
a certain amount of disagreement among
educators as to what are the best courses of
instruction and the best methods of teaching for any particular institution. Thus we
see that higher education is being critically
examined by persons from both within and
without its ranks. It appears necessary for
institutions of higher learning to justify
their position, which was formerly accepted
without question.
Under fire from two sides, we must now
take steps forward with due consideration
for the consequences. And the men who
are guiding Haverford through the present
period of change, President Morley, the
Board of Managers, and the faculty, are
faced with the difficult task of reconciling
the traditionally conservative Quaker principles, and the college curriculum based upon
those principles, with the present trend toward education of a more limited, practical
nature — in keeping with the defense program initiated last Spring.
The maintainance of a fair balance,
both inter- and infra- departmental, will be
the only way in which Haverford can continue to provide the fine education it has
offered in the past. There must be a balance between intellectual, physical and spiritual development of the student — a balance
which the College has been very fortunate
to pave established and maintained. Then,
in the narrower sense, their must be a justifiable division between science and the arts.
And, finally, there must be equilibrium
within each department:
To keep the College faculty and curriculum adjusted to changing conditions,
while still maintaining the basic elements
in each of the larger categories mentioned
above, is no small task. And it is a job

the fact that, in over thirty years
of existence it hall always been
self-supporting and has consistently improved the quality of its productions. Of the place of Cap and
Bells in student life at Haverford,
Laverty lays, "It affords an unusual opportunity for graduates to
work together jr active collaboration with the undergraduates. I
know of no other activity that offers this opportunity for close contact and interest in student activities. Cap and Bells has many
loyal members and I feel sure that
the alumni who have supported it
so well in the past will find good
hand, for its future guidance."
Laverty as an undergraduate
was elected to Cap and Bells membership in his Freshman year. Hi

Three Marks Fall
Evans and Amussen Impressive
As Team Scores 98.28 Rout;
Haverford Sweeps Three Events
After bustling through several
busy bourn of running„ jumping,
and throwing, a small.but capable
contingent of Haverford track men
returned from Swarthmore last
Friday afternoon with the season's
outstanding conquest. Displaying
real power in every event and
sweeping all first places except the
100-yard dash, the Main Liners
compiled an outlandish ninetyeight point total, while the Garnet
tracketers netted a scanty twentyeig points for their efforts.
Neides its decisiveness, the Haverford victory ie to be noted as the
fourteenth out of a possible twenty
occasions that a Haddleton coached
team has defeated its Quaker rival.
Also, it marks the seventh consecutive time that "Pop's" proteges
have downed the Garnetontinuing
winning streak over Swarthmore
that was started in 1935.

Outstanding in the Haverford
conquest were the performances if
Morrie Evans and big "Moose"
Amussen. Evans turned In the
best hurdling show that Swarthmore has seen all year by romping
over the two-twenty Iowa in the
very fast time of 25.6 seconds.
Morrie also showed enough speed
to win the highs, beating out two
Swarthmore men, and thus becoming one of the meet's two double
victors. Amussen won his laurels
by taking fixate in the shot put and
220, and third in a fast hundred,
thereby winning the high scoring
honors with his eleven-point total.
Swarthmore's lone first place, a
victory in the hundred-yard dash
was turned In by the brilliant Garnet captain, Fred Reed. But even
this was atoned for when Ryne

and Amussen finished in second
and third places. Reed also figured
in the scoring by taking third
places in the broad jump and twotwenty low hurdles.
Fords Sweep Three Events
The power of the Fords is displayed by the fact that the Scarlet
and Black athletes swept all three
places in three events, namely the
discus, shot put, and high jump.
The Main Liners also romped off
with first and second places in five
events.
The most interesting races were
the two-mile run, the furlong,
and the half-mile. In the twomile race, Jim Gary came .home
victorious once more and remained
unbeaten in his favorite event. He
had to hustle to beat Swarthmore's
Dick Carr, however, and it was
only after Carr had set the pace
for the first mile and a half that
Jim decided to take the matter in
hand and put on the terrific finishing spurt for which he is noted.
The two-tewenty yard dash was
furiously contested between Amussen and Snipes, of Haverford, and
Leckie, of Swarthmore. Maybe
Luckie was forsaken by his namesake. At any rate both of the
Haverford boys nipped him in the
last few yards of the race.
Ed Howe turned in the best
vaulting effort of his career by
clearing the bar at eleven and onehalf feet and thereby stamping
himself as a very strong threat
in the coming Middle Attention.

Lehigh's Wooters,
Fords' Falconer
Set New Records
Paced by their lanky captain,
"Duke" Wooters, the Lehigh Engineers downed the Haverford trackmen Tuesday on Walton Field by
a score of 701h to 55%.
Wooters won both the 220 and
440-yard dashes, sweeping to a new
Middle Atlantic States record of
49.8 seconds to shatter the elevenyear-old mark of Union's Jim Bowie
and to out-distance Walt Falconer,
the Fords' ace middle-distance runner. But Falconer came back in
the half relic to break the LehighHaverford dual meet record with
a clocking of 2:00.2.
Lehigh's George Elliott provided
a third record-breaking performance. He topped the high hurdles
in 15.8 seconds to eclipse another
Haverford-Lehigh standard.
The closest race of the day was
the mile, in which Lehigh's Herb
Elliott barely managed to stave off
a finishing spurt by Dave Poole.
Al Rogers was third.

With the dedication of the new
stack wing of the library accomplished, plans have been released
for the remodeling of the old stack
into a "treasure room" for the
Quaker Collection and the Charles
Roberts Autograph Collection.
Work has already begun on the
project, which will be completed
during the summer.
The plans, which are now posted
in the library, provide for a completely new arrangement. A large
alcoved reading room lined with
bookcdses and encicled by a gallery will occupy most of the apace.
There will also be small rooms for
special work, and the Curator's
once and stack space will be left.
The William H. Jenks Collection
of 17th century Quaker tracts,
which is the heart of the Quaker
Collection, is to be placed in locked
display eases in the center of the
reading room. All the Quaker
books now in the library will be
moved into the new addition, which
will be fire-proof.
