To Comp to Tam
With Captain George Warner and new head coach Bill
Docherty at the helm, Haverford College will present. a
preview of its 1941-42 basketball activities by meeting the
Philadelphia College of Pharmacy and Science on the evening of December 9 on the
rival court.
Comparatively speaking, basketball prospects at Haverford look
better this year than has been the
case for quite some time. Not since
the days of Sturge Poorman, "Sugar" Kane, Bill Tiernan, Joe Taylor, and Joe Purvis has the Scarlet and Black had such an impressive array of court material. Captain George Warner, who was recognized by Philadelphia scribes as
one of the district's leading players during the pant season, will
lead RE aggregation of veterans
which includes Bob Miller, Don
Magill, Al Dorian, and JiminyNagill,
Manias Are Promising
Augmenting the squad immeasurably will be a large group of talented freshman candidates. The
showings made thus fee by Rhinies Alford, Jones, Swarthy, Boteler, Schriarrs, and Dorries has indicated that competition for starting positions will be keener than
in several seasons. Also, not to be
overlooked are some of last year's
Jayvee members. Specifically, the
abilities of Doug Hallett, Johnny
Shinn, Danny Millar, Bill Hedges
and Jim Worl should add even
more to the worries of last year's
holdovers.
Under the tutelage of Bill Docherty, who has been elevated from
the role of Jayvee coaching duties,
the Scarlet ,and -Black courtmen
will rely on the principle that a
good offense is the best defense.
And with such high scoring operatives as Warner, Miller, Dorian,
and Magill on hand, it might be
ventured that there is capable material on hand for such a plan of
attack. However, the team won't
be without a defense, for this phase
of the game was always stressed
under the Randall system of last
year, and with many of the same
players around it is hoped that
their well-drilled defensive tactics
won't be forgotten.

Many scrimmages have been

attempt to give it more experience

been having intro-squad scrimmages every day, and this practice
will probably be continued. Particularly impressive in early drills
has been Bob Dorriea, six-foot fourinch freshman who scored over
two hundred points in prep school
competition last year. Art Jones,

Vocalist Doris Bell
Featured By Band
By GEORGE HOPKINS
The Soph-Senior Dance promises
to be one of the most outstanding
ones of the year with music to be
furnished by Jay Browne and his
orchestra. His rising band, acclaimed by the leading music publishing concerns in New York to be
one of the leading small bands in
the East, features Doris Bell on
the vocals. Miss Bell, an attractive red-head who has sung with
many of the large bands in Philadelphia, has lots of personality
and puts a song over in a big way.
Randy Baldwin, a hot but also a
smooth drummer, has his own arrangement of "A Man And His
Drums," and stars in J. Dorsey's
arrangement of "John Silver." The
ever popular "Star Dust" features
smooth brass and sax sections,
somewhat in the Glenn Miller vein.
Jay Browne, a ciarinetist, uses
several of Shaw's better - known
solo and show pieces, and always
makes a hit with the jitterbugs.

Oulahan Addresses
Group On Framing
\.Of Next World Peace
Seven students attended the
two-day International Relations Club Conference at Lehigh University Friday and
Saturday. Knox Brown, Heber Harper, Courts Oulahan,
David Thompson, Paul Cope,
Wolfgang Lehmann, and David Stokes were the Haverfordians at the conference at
which 60 colleges were represented.
The program included two sessions of round table discussions on
various topics, each with a student
leader and with a faculty adviser.
Some of the six topics discussed
were the roles of Japan and Russia
in the present crisis, and the organization for peace.
Oulahan Delivers Talk
Courts Oulahan, addressing the
group discussing the last subject
on the responsibility for framing
future peace, told his audience that
the United States by associating
unofficially with the war effort of
Great Britain and by its strategic
position in world affairs must be
prepared to shoulder a great part
of the post-war work.
Addresses Heard
The delegates heard an address
Friday evening by Malcolm Davis
an "The Americas in the World
Today." The question was also
discussed by a round table group.
Following a banquet Saturday evening, Mrs. Vera Dean of the OPM
addressed the conference on "The
Building of a New World."
The program concluded Saturday
night with a dance held on the
Campus in Grace Hall.
BIOLOGISTS MAKE TRIP

Library Periodicals
Curtailed by War
The war in Europe has its
direct effects which are being
felt more and more on the
Haverford campus. Professor
Dean P. Lockwood, College
librarian, announced Sunday
that this is especially true in
regard to the library's file of
foreign periodicals. The periodicals regularly received from
France, Belgium, and Holland
have disappeared completely,
and most of them are no longer
published.
Moat of-the German, Italian,
and Swiss periodicals are still
being published, but the library
is receiving them irregularly,
and they are becoming harder
to get. The British periodicals
are still arriving more or less
regularly, but most of them
are being delayed in the mails.
Draft Creates Problems
For College Officials
Continued from Page I, Col. 4
which grants authority to the faculty to award degrees in absentia
to students who are forced to leave
college, or who continue their studies in other specialized schools.
This the faculty may do if they
consider that a student's incomplete
work at Haverford, or work at another insytution, merits the degree.
Many Deferred
The large majority of the students who have registered in the
draft, said Dean Brown in conclusion, are now in the classification 2-A, in which they have regeived a deferment of six months,
with the possibility of another deferment at the end of that period,
if they have not finished their college course. Another smaller number are in class 1-B, for military
service which will be modified on
account of some physical disability
of the selectee. The remainder is
in class 4-E for conscientious objectors, and in class 4-F for those
physically unable to be in the
army.
