The end of this term of college brings down the curtain on the
most brilliant year in the athletic histGry of Lewis and· Clark col­
lege and also old AlbanY.: For in 1948 and 1949 the Pioneers of
Palatine Hill proved tliemselves against strong opponents and came
home with more than their s!).are of honors.
Last fall at lhe start of school Joe Hu~ton took ~ large group
of football candidates in hand and molded !hem into a machine

conference until the last cont.t of the season when !hey were a femur bone in his left thigh

Saturday. His time of 9.8 last
week in the 100 tied the confer­
ence record and in several dual
meets this season he has broken
records. A member of the Phog"
bound Polecats, Merlin played a
little football last season and
participated with the Polecats
in basketball and is a member of
the softball team. White is also
a musician in the college band. Fre _d_~~!.~~s Tops

Hal Ellmers competing for his

'year, he tied for first in the cen­
tury and won the 220. Bud also
lettered two years in football at
halfback, played a season of
baseball as a center fielder and
did a little broad jumping in his
senior year with leaps up to
20'6". In other school _activities
White was a 'member of the Ti­
gard Hi-Y and president ·of the
Lettermen's club and musician

After completing the necessary
courses here, Merlin plans to try
his skill at teaching physical
education and coaching in some

ing for United Air Lines.

ette pushed them into a tie for conference honors with these same
Bearcats .. IJ:! the NIAB tourney the Pioneers romped · over the
Salemites in what could be termed the rubber game of the series as
LC won the first contest early in the year.
Ne:id in !he athletic picture came skiing, where the ski learn
from Lewis and Clark comp~tely led the field. Coached by Willie
Helming ~d directed by Mrs. Jean Horner, !he locals were always
in the lop bracket of every competitive meet. In -the c'onference
finals LC'c five-man !earn took all five top positions.
In other minor team sports this college also stood out. In the
golf finals LC finished second behind Willainette, while the tennis
players as a team ranked at the top in competition · with other
Northwest colleges.
. Next bn !he agenda came baseball and with i! a slump in
athletic prowess. Coach Warren Smith's crew. was always out in
the diamond ttying, bu! !hey could not seem to brin~ !heir pitch-
ing and hiUing, together in one conies!. .
Last but not least came track season and with it came the
first undisputed championship as the Fixmen dominated every
meet they ran in except the one against Oregon State. In the con­
ference meet they were the favorites and more than justified the
rating give~ them as they put their competition far behind.
Recognition comes to !he coaches for their fine jobs 1 and the
athletes are also to be praised for !heir fine efforts which made
such a successful year possible. To all !hose participating in ath­
letics we wish to add our humble congratulations 'for a job splen­
didly done, and may your success continue in !he future.

Summer Sessions ARE Different
So you don't think going to summer school is any dif­
ferent than the regular sessions huh?
Since when could you see a· freshman nose into a choice
parking space right on the doorstep of the classroom build­
ing while the nosed-out senior reluctantly takes his car down
to the pit and walks to class?
Gone are the days of the privileged class! Balmy days
make equals of us all. No more does the little red wind­
shield sticker carry with it the privilege of reserved parking.
Dean Ennis says the best assurance of a good parking
place is an early class. It's first come, first served. Rugged
individualism!
This Is It
No, you aren't mistaken-this is the Pioneer Log-sum­
mer edition that is.
We are a little short of help; but we intend to try our
best to give you the best possible coverage ofcampus events
this summer. You can help by turning in any tips to the
Log office or to the post office. They'll see that we get them.
Publication will be a little erratic. We plan on publish­
ing about four issues this ~ummer. Next issue is tentatively
scheduled for July 1.

Mass Exodus F~ails to Materialize,

and gay, I heard many an oath from many a character tnat come
summertime they would take part in a mass exodus from the halls
of learning to the dens of iniquity. Vacation-what a sweet word.
But now as I look around me I wonder if those oaths were given
;inccrely. Here it is summertime again, but still those self-same
characters are to be seen lugging their books from the Bus Depot
to Ye Old Brain Factory.
