Photography A PANORAMA OF EDUCATIONAL PROGRESS HAS BEEN VIEWED FOR 92 YEARS AT BUTLER. FIRST OPENING ITS DOORS IN 1855 AS NORTHWESTERN CHRISTIAN UNIVERSITY, INDIANAPOLIS HAS WITNESSED THE STEADY GROWTH OF OUR SCHOOL THROUGH THE IRVINGTON CAMPUS TO ITS PRESENT LOCATION IN FAIRVIEW PARK. THE YEAR ' S STORY, WHICH FEATURES THE ERECTION OF A NEW RELIGION BUILDING, HAS BEEN CAPTURED AND RETAINED IN PICTURE AND PARAGRAPH FORM IN OUR YEARBOOK, THE ■immiii ft:tiaism: i ?% T .; .- . m ' i THE BUTLER YOUTH OF TODAY IS ESSENTIALLY THE SAME IN IDEALS AND ASPIRATIONS AS THAT WHICH TROD THE CAMPUSES OF BY- GONE YEARS. AMID THE SCENES OF OUIET SPLENDOR WE HAVE LIVED FOUR OF THE MOST IMPORTANT YEARS OF OUR LIVES. IT HAS BEEN OUR PRIVILEGE TO TRAIN OURSELVES AS COMPETENT MEN AND WOMEN TO ASSUME OUR INTENDED ROLE IN A DEMOCRATIC SOCIETY. WE FULLY REALIZE THE TREMENDOUS RESPONSIBILITY THAT IS OURS IN PROTECTING AND EXTENDING THE FREEDOM OF A LAND THAT HAS ACCORDED US THESE OPPORTUNITIES. THUS IT IS WITH WILLING HANDS, THAT THE STUDENTS OF THIS SCHOOL HAVE ASSUMED THEIR DUTIFUL ROLE IN THIS, THE FOURTH MAJOR WAR IN BUTLER ' S HISTORY. OUR RESPONSIBILITY IS AKIN TO THE TRUST PLACED IN THE UNFALTERING HANDS OF THE MEN OF BUTLER WHO MARCHED AT GETTYSBURG, SAN JUAN, AND THE ARGONNE. ALREADY HALF A THOUSAND HAVE LEFT THE PACIFIC ENVIRON- MENT OF COLLEGE LIFE TO PROTECT THE PRECIOUS IDEALS THAT THEY HAVE COME TO LOVE AND REVERE. THE WORLD, AND WE OURSELVES ARE BECOMING AWARE OF THE IMPORTANCE OF THE COLLEGE GRADUATE IN MODERN SOCIETY. THEN LET US NOT FOR- GET THAT ALTHOUGH MOST OF OUR COLLEGE LIFE IS IN THE PAST, TODAY ' S PROBLEMS DEMAND THAT WE MAINTAIN IN THE FUTURE, THE SAME SPIRIT WHICH HAS BEEN OURS ON THE FAIRVIEW CAMPUS. Over a decade has passed since this portal was opened as the goteway to knowl- edge and well-being. From that memorable nning up to the present day, it has witnessed the passage into adult life of fully equipped men and omen. The environs of the campus- the canal, the gardens, the woods a contribute to our sense of contentment and satisfaction. Surrounded by such as these, we have lived and learned the year 1942. Fleeting shadows on the wall Jordan hHall may be likened to our four year sojourn. We linger but a moment, and then, like footprints on the sand of time, ' we move on, the traces of our presence gradually fading. hHowever, even after our departure, the memories of our college life remain —of walks through fallen leaves, of friendships made and goals achieved. S AS PROOF OF THE PROGRESSIVE ATTITUDES OF THE BUTLER BOARD OF DIRECTORS WE PROUDLY PRESENT THE NEW kJkdJ« JUnn. IJb l«iU. «U .« ? .. J i ' a , .ir. Mi SCHOOL OF RELIGION BUILDING I he efforts of sixteen years of careful planning came to fruition wfien the new religion building opened its doors at the beginning of the second semester. A campaign was instituted in 1925 under the direction of J. W. Atherton, executive and financial secretary of Butler University, to raise funds to finance a building to house the then newly organized College of Religion. Over half of the $275,000 cost of the building was obtained at that time, hlowever, further plans were arrested because of the economic depression and the removal of the school to the Fairviewcampus. In 1940 the Christian Foundation donated an additionol $125,000 in order to complete the building fund. In Septem- ber of that year the task of ground breoking was promptly begun. Due to the pressure of priority contracts arising from the war situation, construction work was delayed during the winter months of that year. The cornerstone was laid June 8, 1941 by William G. Irwin, treasurer of the Christian Foundation. This was a memorable day in the history of Butler ' s progress. The interior of the building compares very favorably with the beautiful exterior Georgian architecture. Modernly furnished offices of spacious dimensions with an inter-communication system hove been provided for faculty members. Seven major seminar rooms with their special tables, chairs and library equipment ore a special feature of the new plant. In the main hallway at the entrance are objects of special interest. These are four bronze plaques designed and executed by Dr. W. E. Garrison of the University of Chicago, former President of Butler. The four figures chosen to be immortalized in bronze are the four chief promoters of the Restoration movement: Thomas and Alexander Campbell, Barton W. Stone and Walter Scott. A room of special interest is the beautiful Sweeney Chapel which is named in honor of the former Rev. Z. T. Sweeney for his efforts on behalf of the establishment of the College of Religion. The library in the South wing is unique in that it contains probably the most complete col lection of books of the Disci- ples movement in existence today. Over 2,500 books ore numbered in the two-floor stacks. Many of its volumes are original manuscripts and ore not duplicated any- where else in the world. Several manuscripts of special interest are on display in the museum v hich ocoted on the second floor. Excellent facilities for research have been provided. Five private booths, technically called carrels ' hove been installed for the convenience of students workina on theses. M ltA m fM m- ■ iifcTtn i -i-i ' ' S« S«i I m w ADMINISTRATION DR. M. O. ROSS Acting President Dr. Maurice O. Ross, acting president of Butler University, has achieved wide recognition in educational circles and in the field of economics. Dr. Ross come to Butler in September, 1938, as dean of the then newly organized College of Business Administration. A native of hiillsboro, Kentucky, acting president Ross received his A.B. degree from Kentucky Wesleyan College in 1917. Besides recognition as an all-state tackle in football, Dr. Ross also earned letters in baseball and basketball. Immediately following graduation the acting head of this school entered the Naval Air Corps soon after America was plunged into the World War I. Dr. Ross, himself an aviator, served as a machine-gunner in a naval air unit that patrolled the coasts of Florida and Cuba. This unit was credited with sinking on enemy submarine. After the close of the war Dr. Ross received his M.A. degree in Economics from the University of Chicago. Twelve years later, Dr. Ross was awarded his Ph.D. degree from the some institution. Dr. Ross went to Earl- ham College in 1925 as a professor of economics and seven years later was appointed college dean, a position he held until 1937. During his stay at Earlham, Dr. Ross also served as head foot- ball coach, hie went to the University of Tennessee in 1937-38 as a finance professor, and in the fall of that year Dr. Ross began his tenure here at Butler. At a time when America has again be- come embroiled in world conflict we are indeed fortunate to have a man as our leader who possesses such a rich store of experience and who has such superb intellect and superior capabilities. m - . t m-j . ,.... . -. r- T-T- IV.kM ' ' A .a.S- ;  (k ' ji« --;i.T. ' HILTON U. BROWN Hilton U. Brown Is serving his fifty-seventh year on the University Board of Directors and Is In his forty-ninth year as president of the board. Mr. Brown received his A.B. and A.M. from Butler and was given the honorary LL.D. degree by his alma mater in 1935. Recently a bust of Mr. Brown was unveiled by his grandson, Hilton Atherton. This is mute testimony of the high esteem that all people acquainted with Butler ' s history hold for Mr. Brown. JOHN W. ATHERTON This University owes its financial success and realization of Its dreams for a bigger and better Butler to its dependable financial secretary, John W. Atherton. Since his appointment by the Board of Directors In 1920, Mr. Atherton has assured this school of financial stability and has increased Its assets. From his down-town business office, this loyal promoter of Butler oversees and shares the responsibility of the University ' s financial organization. BOARD OF DIRECTORS Under the capable guidance of the 21 members who comprise the Butler University Board of Directors, our school has completed another successful school year— a year that has seen the United States join the world s crusade against tyranny. The Board of Directors has been responsible for the progress enjoyed by Butler in the past. Among their major achievements ore the transfer of the University to the Fairvlew campus in 1928 and the construction of Arthur Jordan Memorial Hall. The latest addition to our beautiful campus is the new College of Religion Building completed last fall. This project was made possible largely through the efforts of John W. Atherton, secretory of the Board, who raised 60% of the total cost among the Disciples of Christ Church. A gift of $100,000 by Mr. William G. Irwin of Columbus, another member of the Board, was also a great factor In bringing about the new addition to our campus. Mr Atherton was appointed financial secretary In 1920, and largely through his efforts the school ' s assets have in- creased from $600,000 to about $6,000,000. Chairman of the Board is Hilton U, Brown, the grand old man of Butler University who has served the school for more than 50 years. t l d j ii j u Despite the aid and service which they hove given so generously in the past, the members of the Board will do their utmost to build a bigger and better university that will do Its part in developing the future leaders of America.

Ratti is Dean ol- the College of Liberal Arts and head of the Romance Languages Department, hie holds his A.B. and A.M. degrees from Middle- bury College and his Ph.D. from the University of Grenoble. Dean Ratti has been on the Butler fac- ulty since 1920. The history of Butler ' s College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, points out Dean Gino A. Ratti, is the history of Butler University. This College alone comprised the institution from its beginning in 1855, until 1924 when an expansion of its depart- ments resulted in the three additional colleges which now go to make up Butler. The objective of the College is to develop individuals with trained minds, broad human sympathies, and high ethical and religious ideals which prepare them to take their places as free men and women in a democratic country. With this goal in view, the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences has organized its courses and instruction so as to give a basic liberal training of fundamental value in every walk of life. The following elements ore listed as essential: 1. Training in the symbolic representations of human experience, whether in the form of language, music and art, or in mathematical symbols and chemical formulas. 2. Training in the scientific method of procedure in the acquisition of knowledge, giving on influence in the building of charact er, student honesty, accuracy, and love of truth. 3. Training in the art of exact and systematic thinking, best gained from a study of mathematics and logic. 4. Training in the moral and ethical evaluation of human activitity. 5. The acquisition of broad factual knowledge of the world, both present and post. 6. Opportunity to satisfy the creative urge inborn in human beings. The position of this College during the year ' s emergency, according to the Dean, has been to adopt courses of study to the highest needs of both the country and the individual scholar. Never has the College had a larger percent of people working on advanced degrees, or a more superior faculty.

ADMINISTRATION Dean Maurice O. Ross, head of the College of Business Ad- ministration, has been on the Butler faculty since September 1938. Dean Ross is a graduate of Kentucky Wesleyan University and obtained his A.M. and his Ph.D. degrees from the University of Chicago. The College of Business Administration is the baby of Butler University, being the last college organized in the institution. The College was established in 1937. Dean Maurice O. Ross is its leader. Its courses ore designed to provide training m the methods, techniques and prin- ciples underlying modern business and journalism, as a foundation for careers in these fields. A further and equally importan t objective is to equip students with a knowledge and understanding of the changing and developing character of eco- nomic society and the responsibilities that are laid upon educated men and women engaged in economic and journalistic activity. Its program of training is designed to equip students with an understanding and evaluation of the modern economic and journalistic worlds, and the fundamental lows of their organization and operation; to inculcate an appreciation of the prob- lems resulting from the application of these principles to the various phases of business and journalistic enterprise,- to afford an opportunity to obtain a knowledge of additional social and physical sciences, literature, and languages, through the selection of a large number of elective subjects chosen with the aid of faculty ad- visors, and to impart a knowledge of a limited number of technical and tool courses such OS accounting, statistics, secretarial training, copywriting and editing. The favorable location of the College in Indianapolis gives opportunity for frequent field trips and contacts with different types of businesses and business organizations in actual operation, which are valuable to students preparing for careers in such fields. The College of Business Administration mokes o definite effort to aid its students in finding permanent positions after graduation. This is accomplished by means of inviting the representatives of various firms throughout the country to visit the campus to interview members of the senior class, and also by direct contacts with local firms. In this respect, the college has been outstandingly successful during the past few years, and this lost year had available many more positions than could be filled. Undergraduate degrees of Bachelor of Science in Business Administration and Bachelor of Science in Journalism ore offered, and the graduate degree of Moster of Science in Business Administration. Dean Philip M. Bail has been Dean of the College of Educa- tion since he first came to Butler University in 1940. Dean Bail holds his A.B. from Missouri Valley College and his A.M. and Ph.D. degrees from State University of Iowa. The Butler student who wishes to enter the teaching profession will find valuable instruction by a competent faculty available to him in the College of bducation, headed by Dean Philip M. Bail. , r c, . The College was formed in 1930 by the combining of the Department of tducotion instituted in the University in 1919, and the Teachers College of Indianapolis, founded in 1882. , The primary purpose of the College is the education of teachers, supervisors and administrators for positions in kindergartens, elementary schools, and high schools. Students preparing to enter this field ore expected to gam a broad general educa- tion, intensive training in the subjects to be taught, and special instruction in profes- sional courses which point out and prepare the student to meet the problems of teaching successfully. . An important feature of the College ' s instruction, is a system of student teaching. The College of Education is fortunate in having the excellent facilities of the Indian- apolis Public Schools for use as a teacher education laboratory. The most capable students, judged on scholastic achievement, all round development, participation in school activities, personality traits, and likelihood of becoming successful teachers will be selected for this rigorous program of supervised practice teaching during their senior year. This cooperative program of teacher education, witln the opportunities of observation of elementary and secondary public school methods, is designed to prepare teachers of the highest possible qualifications. r i r ii Placement of students in a teaching position is a definite function of the College, and a teacher placement office to aid in securing positions after graduation is maintained. i t l ■ The Colleae of Education is accredited by the American Association of leacfiers Colleges. The Indiana State Department of Education has accredited Butler Uni- versity through the College of Education for the following types of licenses: kinder- garten, elementary school teacher, high school teacher, principal, supervisor, and superintendent. A Bachelor of Science degree is given at the culmination of the four year curricula. Graduate work is offered leading to the Master of Science or Master of Arts degree.

Kershner of the College of Religion has been at Butler since 1924. Dean Kershner obtained his B. Litt. degree from Transylvania Uni- versity, his A.M. from Princeton University, and v as awarded the honorary degree of LL.D. at Bethany College and at Tran- sylvania University. The College of Religion, supervised by Dean Frederick D. Kershner, realized the dream of several years, this year when the College was moved from the second floor of Jordan hall to the gracious new Georgian structure overlooking the canal. The building, thoroughly equipped for advanced research and study, cost more than a quarter of a million dollars. Lecture rooms, a dining room and kitchen, heating plant, storage rooms, and adequate facilities for drama presentations are located on the ground floor. A spacious reception room, administrative offices, classrooms, the library, and reading rooms occupy the first floor. The second floor is devoted to classrooms, seminar rooms, a museum, and departmental offices. All the dignity and simplicity of a New England meeting house is present in the chapel which occupies the north wing of the building. Open house for the building was held January 28, 1942, about a year after con- struction on the structure began. The enlarged faculty and steadily increasing enrollment in this graduate school ore other advances being made. The primary purpose of the College of Religion is to train candidates for the ministry and allied forms ot Christian Service. It endeavors to provide students with a comprehension of techniques adequate for productive work in the fields of pastoral, evangelistic, educational, and missionary ministry, plus vocations of social service. In September, 1925, the school of Religion officially became a port of Butler University. It ' s faculty is so organized as to provide expert guidance and stimulation for the development of scholars in the theological, historical, interpretive, linguistic, and scientific areas of religion. Further plans to increase the prestige and value of this Butler College are under consideration. One plan is to erect two dormitories, one for unmarried stuoents, and the other for those with families. The second preparation of advancement is a tentative arrangement to become effective in the near future to confer the degree of Doctor of Theology in addition to the degrees of Bachelor of Divinity, Master cf Theology, Master of Arts, and Master of Science, already granted under the Col- lege ' s jurisdiction. September 16, 1929 marks the admission of ProFessor George Franklin Leonard to faculty mem- bership. The title given him was Acting Assistant Professor of Edu- cation. Diligence and hard work rewarded itself in 1930 when he was promoted to Assistant Pro- fessor of Principles of Education, Director of the Evening Division and Director of Student Welfare, the positions he now holds. Mr. Leonard received his B.S. degree at Central Normal Col- lege, and A.B. degree from Wabash, and M.A. degree at Butler. NIGHT SCHOOL The Division of Evening Courses of Butler University was created by the Board of Directors at its June meeting in 1930, and its management was placed under the direction of Associate Professor George F. Leonard who is now serving in that capacity. Originally established in 1899, the evening courses were arranged by the Indianapolis Board of School Commissioners and the administration of Butler University. They were offered to the city teachers who desired to extend their educational interests and thus served both as professional training and general culture Recognizing the value of the evening classes led to the Board of Directors ' decision to make them on integral port of the University ' s curriculum. Evening division courses ore taught by regular faculty members and also byoutside instructors when occasion demands. Courses included in the Evening Division curriculum ore, for the most part, selected from the regular university courses and range from freshman to senior classes with seme being of graduate level. They are designed for those people who cannot begin their regular college education but ' ish to carry on a part-time program that ill count toward a license or degree,- who wish to complete requirements for a degree; who want to increase their personal efficiency for vocational advancement; who desire a higher education for cultural benefits, and v ' ho seek to discover new interests, aims, and possibilities of living. The classes meet in the late afternoon, early evening, and on Saturday morning. ..a .- . m. t, AJ . WAR COUNCIL The Butler War Emergency Council was organized at the request of the United States Government, and under the guidance of officials of Fort Benjamin hiarrison, for the purpose of impressing the seriousness of the war situation on Butler students and to actively promote the necessary adjustments of that situation on the part of the students and their organizations, the Faculty, and Administration. Its influence and authority will be statewide. The Council is composed of two panels,- the Faculty War Emergency Council, headed by Dr. A. Dale Bee I er, and consisting of Professors Van Metre, C. R. Maxim, A.C. Friesner, Albert Mock, Paul D. FHinkle, Katheryn Journey, C. C. Josey, and Wm, G. Moore,- and the Student War Emergency Council, headed by Elwood Andrews, and is made up of the Presidents of; Student Council, Y. M. C. A., Y. W. C. A., Pan-hellenic Associa tion, Butler Independent Association, Trianon, Alpha Phi Omega, Women ' s League, Freshmen, Sophomore, Junior and Senior classes, the editor of the Collegian, a representative from the Fraternities, and two representatives of the unorganized students. The Student Panel has as its main function the promoting of various ways in which Butler University Students may be of service, not only to ex-Butler students now in the Army, Navy, and the Marine Corps, but also to the Federal Government in winning the War. The Faculty ' s function is to give publicity to the council and to serve as a general guiding influence. Activities of the Council hove included an investigation of the student attitude toward the war situation. Plans were made for fire and air raid precautions with the cooperation of the Indianapolis civic authorities. At the suggestion of President Robinson, a vigilantes committee was organized for the purpose of watching for suspicious actions of persons on the campus.

AFFILIATED SCHOOLS SIGMA DELTA KAPPA The Eta Chapter of the Sigma Delta Kappa was organized at the Indiana Low School in 1916. One year from its organization its charter membership grew from thirteen to twenty-nine. Then came the first World War and Sigma Delta Kappa gave all but one or two of its members to the armed services. After the World Conflagration was over many of her members returned to the Indiana Law School to continue their legal education and active membership in this fraternity. A few years later, through the efforts of Judge hlitch and others, subscriptions were raised to buy a house in which the members came to live. For several years this home was maintained for the mem- bers. Later it was abandoned. This year the Eta Chapter of the Sigma Delta Kappa has once again given a large proportion of its members to the armed forces of Uncle Sam. The Army, the Navy, and the Marines, as well as the Air Corps, will find members of Sigma Delta Kappa among their fighting crew. Sigma Delta Kappa is primarily a scholastic fraternity and not necessarily a social one. hlowever, its social aspects ore not entirely forgotten. Bi-monthly luncheons, with well known attorneys as speakers, and dances and parties, play a definite part in its activities, hlowever, the scholastic key worn by its members is symbolical of the attainment which this fraternity considers most important. It has been the tradition of the Sigma Delta Kappa to make its members better lawyers but even more important, its purpose has been to moke its members better men. Both of these qualifications have been admirably upheld by the Eta Chapter of Sigma Delta Kappa. TOP ROW -Bartlow, Watson. SECOND ROW -Smith, Mazelin, Harlan, Lewis.

I pBB SOPHOMORE CLASS Left to right: DON ZALAC MARY ALICE MILLER DORIS FRICKE JOE KETTERY President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer Only half of the joys and memorable experiences of Butler life are known to every Sophomore Class. They have yet to look forward to the smug and noble feeling associated with the longed-for upper- classmen days filled with prestige. More opportunities will be presented for showing loyalty and love for their alma mater. In the Sophomore Class lies the hopes of the Juniors and Seniors. The major class activity of the year--the Sophomore Cotillion — was held at the Murat Temple February 27. Robert Goodwin, serving as donee chairman, worked with numerous committees to make the donee a big success. A Sophomore Sweetheart was chosen by sophomore men, as tradition dictates, to add spice and life to the gala evening of the Cotillion. Frank Goll was fight captain of the sophomore men in the annual hlomecoming greased pole battle. It was claimed by the second year men that their victory over their rhinie opponents was glorious even though hard earned. Don Zaloc is president of the class and represents the Sophomores on President Robinson ' s war council. Mary Alice Miller is vice-president, Doris Fricke, secretary, and Joseph Kettery, treasurer of the class. tU .A. - . __ ADAMS, JAMES LYNN AKERS, JAMES LINWOOD ALEXANDER, DORIS ELAINNE ALEXANDER, JOE ALSOP, LOUIS McCLELLAN ANDREWS, ROSEMARY AUGUSTIN, CHARLES ANDREW BAGBY, WILBUR EUGENE BAKER, DON BAKER, MARTHA JANE BALDWIN, HARMON ARTHUR BARLOW, BETSY BECK, JOHN W.

President Calvin Willis led the freshmen through a successful season. A picnic at the Butler ovens in early spring was a class get-to-gether introduced for the first time as a new tradition to be marked on the freshman social calendar by Willis. Jean Bosson was chairman of the girl -take-boy affair. Willis, as other class presidents, represented his class on the President ' s newly formed war council. A typical rose queen was Miss Carol! Rogers who reigned supreme over the annual freshmen Rose Dance. Charles Marlett was chairman of the dance held at the Murot Temple January 9 with Chuck Smith ' s orchestra playing. Defeat was bitter realization for freshmen men at the traditional hiomecoming frosh-sophomore fight. Although the freshmen led by Copt. Robert Parr claimed advantage over the sophomore opponents, the flog on the top of the greased pole was missed by a few inches. Rhinie pots were worn by the freshmen men the first semester as a reminder of their humiliating defeat. Ruth Sumner served as vice-president of the class, Dorothy Anderson, secretary, and William Swain, treasurer. ii.X jf 6ia«K ABBOTT, WOODROW ACTON AJAMIE, ALBERT ALDENDORF, THYRA M.

The pile usually disappears entirely by 11:40 o ' clock, and the school ' s recorded news has found its way into the hands of hundreds of students. The Collegian att empts to give Butler a daily picture not only of academic life and local affairs but on the national and world-wide current-events as well. It also serves as a valuable and practical problem for the institutions journalism students. In addition to competent news coverage, the Col- legian engages in other orth-while projects. The annual Cheer Drive carried out each Christmas brings unfortunate Indianapolis families holiday happiness. Tag Day instituted this year by the Collegian, made it possible for Butler boys in the service to receive Christ- mas gifts from Butler. Some of the most prominent students at Butler devote their time and energy toward making the Collegian a better paper. Service on the paper is entirely volun- tary, and with little reward. Several times during the school year, members of the Collegian Staff are sent to work in the newspaper offices of various small Indiana towns. Experience in journalism, supplementary to work on the Collegian, is gained in this manner. Many of the Collegian Staff members have served as student representatives on the Tuesday night Current Affairs forum. The emergency conditions of the year, caused by the war, accomplished changes in the Collegian personnel, that many staff members hove been anticipating. For the first time in recent years the newspaper staff included a woman associate editor and city editor. The Collegian was edited by two journalism students this year; James Neal of Noblesville, during the first semester, and Robert C. Scholk of Indianapolis, during the second semester. hdoward Whitecotton, business manager,- hJelen Rue- gamer, associate editor, and Schalk, city editor, served the first semester. William Ronsdell, business manager; Miss Ruegamer, associate editor, and Mildred Reimer, city editor, held the positions the second semester. Additional editorial staff members officiating this year included Ross Christena, Bart Swope, Myron Scorbrough, Ray Alsbury, Ralph lulo, Mark Mast, Joan hHixon, Donnie Douglas, Jeanne Gass, Jean Brannon, Orpha Mae McCue, Nick Smyrnis, Joe Greenburg, Tom Markin, and J. Robert Deitz. Reporters who got out and did the real leg-work accounted for much of the paper ' s success. Adequate school news coverage is determined to a large extent by the faithfulness and efficiency of the reporter. The reporting staff included lone Colligan, Bernice hlouser, Jane Mottern, Joe Zainey, Jean Kercheval, Jane Lewis, hJarold Dormer, Jock Dorfman, Betty Lee Snyder, Beth Meyer, Laura May hiart, hlorry Evard, Alan Chab, Virginia Crawford, and Mary Elizabeth Black. Downtown Indianapolis newspapers demonstrate their faith in Butler ' s journalism training by giving Prof. Charles V. Kinter, Collegian Sponsor and associate professor of journalism, o ring ' henever they want to hire a new worker. Students employed by local papers this year included Bart Swope, Myron Scorbrough, Jock Shackelford, Joe Greenburg, and Mark Most, all by the Indianapolis Star, and George Weldon, James Adams and Max Stultz, The Indianapolis Times. The Collegian cannot forget the services rendered by staff members who ere called into United States Ser- vices this year. They include, James Farmer, v ho con- tributed the Butler Bill column faithfully even after he was stationed in camp, James Neal, William Shipley, James Fox, and Ross Christena. This fifty-sixth year of newspapering has been a busy one for the Collegian, but none the less successful. Operating on an emergency basis, with smaller staffs, and in spite of scholastic duties, its editors have con- tinued to publish the paper in an efficient and competent manner, NA ' eek after week, with even on Extra thrown in for good measure. Those unsung heros of the fourth estate colled stone-workers in news- paper lingo (compositors to you) are R. Benjamin and R. Lee Kendall. In the background Mr. Miller pounds the linotype. Bus. Manager Dick Carson ii smiles from beneath a I pile of bills. ' ! Nina Switzer, Associate- editor, takes time off to pose. Mark Holeman, Art-editor lays-off from lay-outs. Sally Steinbaugh and Ruth Miles took care of the beauties. 1942 DRIFT The task of publishing the ' 42 Drift has been one which, even though fraught with responsibihty and attendant worry, has not been without its compensating rewards. The staff has reohzed full well that the ' 42 Drift may well be the last Butler annual of any appreciable size and content to make its appearance on the Fairview campus during the next few years. With that realization in mind, we have endeavored to prepare for your gallery of memories , a book worthy of that responsibility. Carrying on with the distinct improvement instituted by the ' 41 Drift in regard to size of book, lay-out, style, etc., we hove added several other features designed to create a Drift worthy of Butler Uni- versity and its hallowed heritage of ninety-two years. In accordance with the progressive attitude of continuous growth, shown by the school in the construction and opening of the new College of Religion Building, the general theme of the book has been one to illustrate this credo of expansion. Always, in the production of a yearbook, the primary objective has been to publish the book on time and yet not to sacrifice content for speed. By means of the close cooperation of Professor Burdin, our faculty advisor, our deadlines have been met and production troubles reduced to a minimum. As editor-in-chief, Art hlomp has coordinated the various staff responsibilities necessary in leading the book towards a satisfactory conclusion. By means of a well conducted job of financing by Dick Carson, business manager, the Drift has managed to keep its head above an ever-present flow of bills. Too much praise cannot be given art editor, Mark hHolemon for his untiring efforts on behalf of the book. Through his unusual artistic ability many incoherent dreams of other staff members, have been brought to sparkling reality. This is Mark ' s second year as art editor, proving his ability in that position. For this fine service, we are indeed grateful. Tudy Gessert proved an able assistant to Mark. Another repeater from last year ' s staff was Nina Switzer who, as associate editor, gave unstintingly of her time and in so doing proved an important cog in the editorial staff. Don Fox, who took over the photo- graphic editorship at the middle of the first semester, made possible a fine array of photographic lay- outs which have proved to be typical examples of his splendid work. In the coverage of the field of sports, Bob Schalk took time off as editor of the Collegian to produce write-ups which have, indeed, made this section of the book. Other staff members, who are deserving of comment, are: Joe Kettery, Ins Norton, Jeanne Goss and Jane Mottern for work on the editorial staff; Bill Wilkinson and John Hart for their services to the business staff,- Solly Steinbaugh and Ruth Miles for their successful presentation of the style show at which the Drift beauties were chosen.

BULLDOG Under the supervision of Editor Robert Bensema, Circulation Manager William Pentecost, and Associate Editor Barbara Frederickson, the Bulldog, Butler University ' s humor magazine, plunged into its fifth year with a very encouraging subscription drive, in which the fraternity trophy was won by Phi Delta Theta and the sorority trophy by Alpha Chi Omega. Robert Parr and Wilma Gray took honors as the individual winners. The Editor proposed many new ideas and special columns which mode a startling hit on the campus. Bonnie Butler and Butler Bill was the featured couple of the year. The two most outstanding columns were: Pixie Pick-ups , by Max Norris, and The Fashion Column by Janet Murphy. Many student contributions aided Bob in its successful year. The business staff was headed by Business Manager Stan Trusty and the advertising was controlled by Advertising Manager h4oward Whitecotton with Joseph Guennel in the position as Staff Artist. During the second semester, the Bulldog Staff labored extensively for the outlined program which was made for the remainder of the year. The Bulldog featured its two annual elections, the B.M.O.C. and B.W.O.C. polls, with a special Relays issue and a Junior Prom edition, which were two un- surpassed issues on the Butler Campus during the year. THESPIS This has been a critical yet a most successful year for Thespis. hHaving lost six leading men to the armed forces together with the difficulty of priorities in defense materials, the productions of Butler ' s dramatic honorary society were greatly curtailed. hHowever, adjusting their activities to meet war time needs, the Thespians, for the first time, held theater parties, formal initiations and conducted experiments in various drama techniques. This year ' s major production, The Young In hHeart , was a new stage ploy adapted from the Selsnick movie of the same name. A radio version of Fiat Lux was presented at Christmas time for a number of organizations throughout the city. Two original plays were presented— Peace of Mind by Ralph Joy Martz, former Thespis president; and The Third Adonis by J. T. Kilgore, Thespis treasurer. All productions were done in collaboration with the Play Production class and under the direction of Mr. Frederic G. Winter. The plays were presented with the cooperation of Jordan Conservatory at the Odeon Building. Working with the radio department of Jordan, Thespians were heard in many radio dramas over local stations. The officers for the year were J. Robert Dietz, president, Jean Pickett, vice-president; Jack Kilgore, treasurer, Jane hHanson, secretary; Gale King, assistant treasurer; Mary Esther Guidone, program chairman; Joan Fuller, ritual chairman; and Kathleen Shockley, historian.

Brunson DeHart Marott BLUE KEY Blue Key is a national senior men ' s honorary fraternity whose purpose is to serve the university. Membership is made up of men chosen from the senior class according to their scholarship, activities and personality. This year s organization began fulf-illment of its purpose by sponsoring the annual hlomecoming dance in collabora- tion with Scarlet Quill, senior women ' s honorary. The Blue Key Annual Football Banquet held in honor of the football team and coaching staff is the most outstanding service of the year. With Arch Word, Sports Editor of the Chicago Tribune, as guest speaker and Luke Walton, Sports Announcer for radio station WIShI, as toostmaster, the banquet was most successful. Blue Key also presented the Iron Key to the winner of the Butler vs. Wabash football game and sponsored one of the events at the Butler Relays. The promotion of the Blue Keyhole stunts, which is a competitive presentation of stunts by the various fratern- ities on the campus, was the next activity. The years work was completed with on initiation banquet and dance in the spring. The officers for the year were: hHerbert Spencer president; Jack Evard, vice-president,- Quentin Covert and Mark hlolemon, secretary-treasurer. SCARLET QUILL Butler ' s chapter of Scarlet Quill, senior women ' s honorary society, has entered its twenty-second year on the campus. The group has earned the recognition and respect of the student body for the high degree of merit it demands of its members. Scarlet Quill pledges fourth year women in recognition of their scholarship, character, personality, leadership, and extra-curricular activities. The traditional garb of Scarlet Quill is a gold jerkin with a scarlet quill appliqued m felt. An annual scholarship award presented on EHonor Day to the sophomore girl with the highest scholastic average, is on outstanding service of the Scarlet Quill. This group is the holder of the Lamp of Wisdom trophy for this year. Qther activities include cooperation with Blue Key, senior men ' s honorary, in presenting the annual hlome- coming dance, and trophies for house decorations. Alumnae of Scarlet Quill are entertained at a tea given by active members on Class Day, Members of Scarlet Quill are capped on May Day by graduating senior members. This ceremony is followed by a rough week , and formal initiation at a breakfast at the end of the school term. Election of officers is also held at this time. This year ' s officers are Mary Ann Lookabill, president; Marjorie Ryan, vice-president; Catherine Wagle, sec- retary; and hielen Ruegamer, treasurer. Mrs. Alice B. Wesenburg is sponsor. SPHINX The members oF Sphinx, Junior men ' s honorary, can be recognized by their white caps. These boys ore chosen from scholarship, activity, leadership and char- acter shown during their Sophomore year. Their business meetings ore held twice each month. The first activity sponsored by Sphinx this year was the sale of Freshmen cops. Due to the efforts of this organiza- tion, nearly every freshman was wearing his green cap by the end of the second month of school. Sphinx also sponsored the Freshmen-Sophomore fight held during the FHomecoming Week. The members of the Junior honorary put up the flag and pole and acted as referees during the fight. The FHomecoming victory bonfire was in the hands of this organization. They compiled the rules concerning the gathering of the wood by the fraternities and awarded the prize to that organization having the most wood. As one of their final activities, the Sphinx club sponsored the Relays Dance. The contestants in the Relays were special guests at this affair and the Relay Queen, Barbara Fuller, was given her trophy. Frank Celarek, president; Frank Kottlowski, vice- president; Art FHamp, secretary and Dick Cournoyer, treasurer; were the officers of this year ' s Sphinx Club. CHIMES Excellent grades and many campus activities during the Sophomore year are the requirements for Chimes, the Junior girls ' honorary organization. The members can always be recognized by their gold chain necklaces with small gold chimes pendants which they vi ' ear. The girls have evening spread meetings twice a month and weekly business meetings. The many activities of Chimes this year included a special tea given in the fall of the year for girls who have transfered from other universities to Butler. The members of Chimes help them to get acquainted with the Fairview Campus. Monthly tea dances held in the Campus Club, and the spring Sweetheart Dinner , where the members dressed in tuxes and escorted their best girl friends to a formal dinner, were other activities of this organization. FHowever, the greatest activity of the year was the sponsoring of the FHomecoming Parade in the fall of the year. Chimes assumed complete charge of the parade, compiling the rules and regulations and awarding the cups for the winning floats. Under the leadership of Norvella Judd, president; Susanne Master, vice-president; Sally Steinbaugh, secretary; and Betty Jane Kreuger, treasurer, this year has been a very successful one for the twelve members of Chimes. ■a ' ? .- ' vi Kottlowski Carson Bensema Second Ro Homp Taylor Elliot Celarek Prof. Anthony Stewart Cournoyer Fletcher Westervelt Mummert Parrish Steinbough Masters Judd Krueger Top Row Shockley Lewis Buschmann Sunderland Hadden Bottom Row Fortney Griffith, G.

These boys are chosen upon the basis of scholarship, character, and activity shown during their Freshman year. This organization was founded in 1930 for the purpose of aiding the school in any way possible. First on the list of their many activities was the annual Utes Pow-Wow dance held at the Murat Temple. At this affair, the big Chief Pow-Wow was elected and received a trophy. The Utes played a very important port in the FHomecoming activities. They helped to conduct the Freshman-Sophomore fight by furnishing the pole for the flag and the axel grease for the con- testants. Shortly after the end of the Basketball season, this organization held their annual Basketball Banquet. The senior players were given gold basketballs and other members of the team received sweaters end numerals. The members of Utes did much to aid Spurs in decorating the fieldhouse for the 1942 relays. The officers for this year were Milton Dickos, pres- ident; Don Zaiac, vice-president; FHorry Evard, secretary and Bill McCloud, treasurer. Prof. Warren Isom is the sponsor of Utes. SPURS The new uniforms of Spurs, Sophomore women ' s honorary, attracted much attention this year. They chose white corduroy skirts, long sleeved white sweaters and white shirts. On the front of the sweaters, they wore the familiar blue and white emblem of their organization. Members of Spurs are chosen for scholarship, leadership, and activities shoNA n during their freshmen year. The activities of this group started early in the school year when they sold balloons at the Butler-Ohio football game. The girls also sold roses during the day before the Freshmen Rose Dance. Their biggest job of the year was the decoration of the fieldhouse for the 1942 Relays. The beautiful blue and white streamers and the display of flags are appreciated by all who attend. In the spring the new members ore selected and sere- naded by the active members. With the proceeds from o card party, a dance is held for the new pledges. Meetings are held every Monday with monthly spreads at the sorority houses. Officers of this year were Alberta Wells, president; Mildred Craigle, vice-president; Mary Jo Clapp, secretory; Jeanne Gass, treasurer; and Donnie Douglas, correspondent to the national magazine, The Spur .

Many of the riding meets have been called off because of the war, but the Butler Chapter hopes to outride the other colleges at the intercollegiate horse show at Champaign, Illinois. Last year the Butler Equiteers carried off many of top honors at the meet. Requirements for entrance into the club are a year of military riding and a dem- onstration of high horsemanship ability. There are two meetings a month on Thurs- day nights, one meeting consisting of a ride and the other a discussion. This year the club was led by Max Norris, president; Jean hHackard, vice- president; Jean Seward, secretary; and Robert Meyers, treasurer. Mr. Max J. De Vietien, instructor in horsemanship is the sponsor of Equiteers. BLUE GILLS CHOIR The Blue Gills club is an organization for girls who love to swim. Member- ship in this club may be obtained by passing a test in swimming, diving, performing water stunts, and a vote of approval by a majority of the members. Meetings of the Blue Gills are held twice each month, one being a business meeting, the other a social evening with a swim, followed by a spread. The members of Blue Gills have been busy this year painting and furnishing a club room in the field house. They have also taken part in many swim meets and intercollegiate contests, often being victorious. Some members of the club have become outstanding professional swimmers and travel distances away to enter more advanced contests. The club has had a very successful year under the jurisdiction of a new constitution which the club adopted last year. The club ' s officers for this year were hJarriett Shelhorn, president; Jean Chaun- cey, vice-president; Mary Lu Silberman, secretary and Pat McGuire, treasurer. Mrs. Turpin Davis is the sponsor of Blue Gills. The Choir, made up of the Butler University Choir and the Arthur Jordan Phil- harmonic Choir has had a very busy and successful year. These students have presented programs at all the school convocations, at many churches throughout the city and have given Friday evening radio programs every three weeks during the entire school year. The Philharmonic choir members have given many addi- tional programs throughout the state. Any student who has had experience singing ir clubs is eligible for membership in the Butler choir, knowledge of music and singing, may ask for on ou Philharmonic choir. The choir rehearsals are held every Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday at noon James Sellers is the president of this group, while Dixie Duggins is the choir librarian Dr. Joseph Lautner is the director of both the choirs. :hurch choirs or school glee Those who show advanced tion to gam entrance in the H AWO RTH CLUB The membership of this club is open to those students interested in history and political science.

JUNIOR PROM Hailed as the Dance of the Year , the 1942 Junior Prom featured the departure from time honored customs familiar to prom-goers of previous years. In lieu of the traditional fraternity and sorority booths, once the occasion for hot competition, the organizations made cash contributions towards the purchase of war bonds. Other usual prom activities conspicuous by their absence were the customary Grand March, scarcity of dance corsages, and optional formal dress for the dancers. All in all though, when the curtain was rung down at 2:00 A. M. the consensus of opinion among students attending was that the prom had been the usual howling success. Through the efforts of Bill Mortimer, band chairman, dancers enjoyed the music of Bob Strong and his College hHumor Band. Strong held forth on the stage of the Egyptian Room at the Murat Temple. Shortly after midnight Harry Ellis, junior class president, presented Chairman Taylor who in turn introduced Prom-Queen Leslie Shippey. Miss Shippey, twice a Drift Beauty and Butler ' s candidate in the Drake Relays Queen race, was elected on the basis of the returns of 70 third year men. Taylor presented her with a trophy forty inches in height, one of the largest ever awarded to a Butler prom queen. Ruth Cabalzer, Beverly Cooper, Bettie Hendrix, Mildred Kapherr and Mary Janet Mummert composed Queen Shippey ' s Court. Five soldiers and five sailors from the United Service Organization were admitted to the dance free. Rotund Louis Parnell received a free ducat for the longes ' beard, as judged by Dr. John Harrison. Parnell won from five other contestants in the annual race to see whose fuzz sprouts (hs fastest. Cup presentation time: President Ellis, Shippey and Taylo 81 ' - ' Uncle Walter strong rides again! I HOME COMING Homecoming bon-fir Sigma Chi ' s winning house decoration The annual Butler Homecoming, crammed with all the traditional activities, brought back the Alumni for two exciting days. The fraternity and sorority houses welcomied back the grads with open doors, and re- newed old fraternal friendships with former active members. The h omecoming activities got under way at noon Friday, with the Freshman-Sophomore scrap as the curtain raiser. The Frosh, capably captained by Bob Parr, came within bitter inches of copping the flag, but the Sophs were the traditional victors. The afternoon float parade carried on in spite of the dark, threatening skies. The blare of the Butler band prepared a large crowd for the fifteen unique floats decorated by the various Greek-letter organizations. The prize-winning floats v ere submitted by Delta Tau Delta and Kappa Kappa Gamma. The piles of wood for the bonfires were almost uni- formly huge, but after careful deliberation the judges awarded the trophy to Sigma Nu fraternity for the fourth consecutive year. The entire student body gathered around the bonfires Friday evening, and participated in the hlomecoming program which in- cluded individual fraternity and sorority sings. The Greek-letter organizations spent the remainder of the sleepless night in decorating their houses for the judging Saturday morning. The winners of the house decorating competition ere Sigma Chi and Delta Gamma. Both students and alumni attended the Butler-Ohio U. football game Saturday afternoon. The home team ' s defeat was the only flaw in an otherwise perfect FHome- coming celebration. The Homecoming dance which featured Max Greer and his Indiana University band and sponsored by Scarlet Quill and Blue Key on Saturday night was the last happy event in a delightful and memorable Butler Homecoming. Beautiful trophies for the float and house decorations were presented to the four winning sororities and fraternities during the inter- mission of the dance. t BEAUTIES Behind the scenes: The five winners pretty up For the photographer. The annual Drift beauty contest brought forth the five girls whose pictures ore on the following five pages as the most beautiful at Butler. This year the contest was conducted in such a manner as to permit the men of the university some voice in the selection of its beauties. From a field of forty-three candidates, whose names had been submitted from each organization by petition, the men at Butler elected sixteen who participated in a style show, February 11 , at L, S. Ayres ' Auditorium. At this time the five finalists were chosen by Kothry nPickett, fashion editor, Randolph Coates, artist, and hlurley W. Ashby, photographer. Professor Isom served as the faculty representative to supervise the judging, which was conducted on the basis of photo- graphic beauty. The eleven girls who were eliminated were Mariann Carlson, Joan Cross, Barbara Fuller, Joan Green, Lois Mathieson, Moribeth Milles, Jeanne Ringle. Carroll Rogers, Betty Staudt, Jean Steiner, and Jean Thomas. 1 Photo-ReHex Studio of L. S. Ayres Co. Mary Lou Robinson Photo-Reflex Studio of L. S.

Students of Butler University say that Coach Paul D. (Tony) hHinkle and his coaching staff could make Job look pretty irritable. Students of Butler University have a good cose. Coach hiinkle Co. lost their trainer, Jim Morris, to the army. They lost their best line coach, Jim hiauss, to the army. They lost their first football game, but not to the army,- that v as to St. Joe, their first Indiana Intercollegiate Conference defeat in years. They lost their second ball game. They lost their third ball gome. They lost everything but their patience. But their patience as rewarded. They finally won a ball game, beating Boll State by one touchdown. They liked it so much they won all the rest of their games, save one, and they couldn ' t save that one. But they were yet to suffer their biggest loss. For at the conclusion of the basket- ball season in March, Coach hiinkle, answering the call of his country, went to the Great Lakes Naval Training station to help out in the athletic department, training our American sailors. The blow to the Butler student body at hearing of the loss of their coach was somewhat lessened by the promise from Tony himself that I ' ll be back, as soon as this war ' s over. And so, on March 5, 1942, Tony left the campus that hod been his home for 21 years, carrying with him the promise that no matter how long he would be away, Butler University would be awaiting his return with open doors.

Butler was proud that it had at least five students to spur the teams on to victory. Dad ' s Day Every man on the team played on Dad ' s Day as Butler trampled over Washington of St. Louis to the tune of 40 to 13. One of Butler ' s traditions, Dad ' s Day was observed even by the student rooters as they brought their fathers to see the gome. trainer . . .

However, getting his twin brother, Jake, was the best tfiat the cheerleaders could do for our first pep session. majorettes Maggie and Jerry put on a show this season. The color and the enjoyment they added to the half-time exhibitions on the gridiron, showed their enthusiasm for Butler sports. student managers . . . Student Managers seem to be growing obsolete at Butler, in both Football and Basketball. These unsung heroes this year were Scott Dukes, senior manager. Bob Cones, Ed McNamaro, and Dick Kingsbury. M Like John Paul Jones, Butler ' s Captain Sparky Roberts wouldn ' t give up the ship. Bob never lost foith in his teom, even after three successive defects at the beginning of the season, and his faith was rewarded as the Bulldogs come bock to win five of the last six games. 1941 If ever a Butler football team had that indefinable something higher society calls courage and plain folks call guts , this year ' s Bulldog squad had it. They learned their football in the school of hard knocks, these Bulldogs did, and they learned it well enough to come back and win five of their last six games, after dropping their first three m succession. Perhaps their magnificent comeback — and it was magnificent — was due to the splendid example set by Capt. Bob Roberts, who kept shouting words of en- couragement to his team through the darkest hours of battle. Perhaps it was due to the fact that twelveof the twenty four lettermen were sophomores, young and spirited and eager for battle. Perhaps it was due to the inspiring praiseand stinging chidings of the coaching staff. More probably it was a combination of all these factors. Be that as it may, the Bulldogs came through, after a discouraging start, to end their season out of the red . Letters were awarded to Seniors — William Doyle, Oscar hiillring, William Kruse, Elwood Norris, Captain Bob Roberts, Lowell Toelle, Dan Zavella, and George Zavella; Juniors — Jim Gilson, Zone Powell, Don Stewart, and Steve Stoyko,- and Sophomores — Boris Dimancheff, William hHoward, Don Kammer, Robert McCahp, hiarold Miller, Mel Perrone, Joe Rodick, Wallace Potter, John Rudnicky, Tom Sleet, Andy Wil- liams, and Norman Williams.

BUTLER FOOTBALL St. Joseph 13 Butler 6 St. Joseph s up-and-coming Pumas— who went on to finish their season undefeated — handed the Bulldogs their first conference defeat in eight years in the Butler opener before several thousand dozed fans in the Fairview bowl. Coach Joe Dienhort ' s squad was primed for this one, and aided by the fact that the Bulldogs were expecting a mere tune-up contest, turned in one of Indiana ' s major 1941 upsets. Nick Scollard, All-State end, went over on a beautiful double reverse late in the second quarter, and place- kicked the extra point to send the Bulldogs to their dressing room at half-time trailing 7 to 0. The Bulldogs, sparked by the prospects of defeat, came bock with renewed strength the second half. Although denied a touchdown on the two-foot marker early in the third quarter, they drove back later the same period, Dimancheff climaxing a long drive with a touchdown from the one-yard line. Brilliant defensive play by the Pumas, however, held the Bulldogs at bay through the final quarter, and the gun sounded without any further scoring for the Bulldogs. hJowever, the second-holf brought a second touchdown for the Pumas that sent them to the final lead of 13-6. Xovier 40 Butler 7 Inexperience in the Bulldog ranks and Chet Mutryn in the Musketeer ranks combined to make this game a one-sided touchdown parade on the Cincinnati gridiron. The hosts scored in and from all quarters, once in each of the first two sessions, and twice in each of the final two periods. A last quarter touchdown by Gobby Williams from the 12-yard line kept the Bull- dogs from a whitewash. Sleet place-kicked the extra point. Mr. Mutryn, undoubtedly one of the finest backs Butler ever faced, tallied two touchdowns and had a hand in nearly all the others as the Roshy Musketeers swept to their one-sided victory. ' i CAPTAIN ROBERTS STOYKO DIMANCHEFF N. WILLIAMS D. ZAVELLA G. ZAVELLA CAPTAIN-ELECT POWELL MILLER KRUSE Western Michigan 14 Butler 6 The Bronchos of Western Michigan, led by little Horace Coleman, Negro halfback, handed the Bulldogs their third straight setback before 5,000 fans in the Fairview arena, scoring the winning tally late in the third period. Coleman uncorked a 47-yard touchdown dash on the fifth play of the gome to put the Bulldogs in the hole. But the Fairview gridmen came bock the some period to score on a long pass from Gobby Williams to Captain Sparky Roberts in the end zone. Coleman, however, got in the open once again in the third quarter to put the gome on ice. Mistakes offset several scoring opportunities for the Bulldogs, v ho racked up 15 first dovvns to their op- ponents ' 10. Butler 13 Ball State 6 Defeat pays dividends in valuable experience, and the Bulldogs couldn ' t be denied this time, although they hod to come from behind to chalk up their first 1941 victory. Babe Dimancheff— a member of several ' ' ' All- Conference and All-State selections— came into his i ' 1 HILLRING Bra HOWARD GILSON own in this battle, scoring both touchdowns and sparking the Bulldog performance throughout. Babes touch- downs came on brilliant jaunts of 43 and 55 yards. Bob Biedenweg hurled a 21-yard aerial to Jim Bald- win for the Ball State tally early in the first stanza. Statistics clearly bore out Butler ' s victory, as the Bull- dogs rolled up 224 yards on 1 3 first downs, while hold- ing the visitors to 67 yards on 4 first downs. Butler 20 DePouw 6 The Bulldogs got behind again this time, but once more couldn ' t be denied, staging a powerful second-half rally to chalk up a decisive win over their conference foes. Little Mike Milenki, Depouw halfback, got away for a 15-yard first-quarter touchdown run early in the first quarter, but that was the final spark of life in the Tiger trenches. Babe Dimancheff led the Butler attack, scoring two touchdowns, while Gobby Williams slipped a pass to Miller for the other touchdown, and Sparky Roberts added the extra point of a placement. Ohio University 20 Butler 7 Defeat finally caught up A ith the Bulldogs again, and this time the Fairview gridmen fell hard before a torrid Ohio University attack by a 20-7 score. The visitors scored once in the first period and re- peated in the second stanza, to take over a 13-0 half- time margin. After a scoreless third period they came back with a final touchdov n, and only a quarterback sneak by Rodick averted a Butler whitewash. Sleet place-kicked the extra point. After a scoreless first quarter the Butler machine began rolling, reaping one touchdown in the second quarter, and reaching pay dirt again in the third stanza. In the final period, riding in high gear, the Bulldogs tallied twice more to put the game away. Dimancheff scored two touchdowns, and Steve Stoyko and McCalip went over once each, while Rodick and Sleet added extra points. Butler 26 Wabash The Bulldogs got back on the victory trail once ogam, and this time it was for keeps. The Wabash Cavemen, Butler ' s arch-rivals, never had a chance against the Bulldog attack, which had grown more potent with each passing game. Butler 18 Toledo 2 By this time the Bulldogs couldn t be stopped, and the Toledo Rockets were the victims of the relentless Butler attack on the Ohio gridiron. Although the hosts held a slight margin momentarily in the second quarter, catching Rodick in the end zone after a blocked punt, the lead was short lived.

Still again in the final period Dimancheff found pay dirt on o two-yard plunge, after a 60-yard drive. dogs really came through with flying colors in their season finale, scoring one of the major upsets in mid- west secondary college circles, and protecting Coach hlinkle ' s record of never having hod a losing season. Both Washington touchdowns came in the final two minutes of the game, but were anti-climoctical, following the Fairview fireworks in the first 58 minutes of play. The Bulldogs scored twice in the first quarter, once in the second and third periods, and twice more in the final stanza. Butler 40 Washington 1 3 Playing brilliant ball in every department, the Bui Scorers were Dimancheff, Miller, Norris and Kruse with six points apiece. Sleet with 8, Stoyko with 7, and Williams with one. y. MANIFOLD.- To one who measures success by the scorebook, Butler ' s 1941-42 basketball team was successful. However, if you measure the success of Butler ' s 1941 - 42 quintet by what it promises for next season, it was one of the best season ' s ever. For the Bulldogs lost only one first-string performer by graduation, and five of the eleven major letters awarded were given to sophomores. The team won 13 games and lost nine, the same as last season, but the record might well hove been a lot better had not lighting, in the form of ineligibility and injury, struck twice right in the middle of the year. With the Fairview Flyers flying in high gear, Co- captains Wilbur Schumacher and Woody Norris were pulled out of the lineup, the Wibber via an injury, Norris declared ineligible. 130 BAUMGARTNER G. MILLER BASKET Schu returned to the lineup only in the last few gomes. Major letters were awarded to Schumacher, h erb Schwomeyer, and Jim Deputy, all seniors,- Juniors Fred FHunckler — who was elected captain of the 1942-43 squad — Bill hiardy and Jim Baumgartner,- Sophomores Glen Miller, hiarold Miller, Ernie Tidrow, Carl Braden and Paul Weaver. Co-captains SCHUMACHER NORRIS SCHWOMEYER DEPUTY Captain-elect HUNCKLER HARDY H.MILLER FLETCHER BALL Butler 50 Franklin 40 The Bulldogs got oFf on the right foot and were hitting on all cylinders, with eleven men- — five of them soph- omores— taking part in the scoring. Although held to a 20-18 intermission lead, the Fair- view Flyers began moving during the later stages of the game and left no doubt as to their superiority. Northwestern 46 Butler 40 A heartbreaker for the Bulldogs, who actually out- scored the Wildcats from the field — 16 goals to 16 — but lost out at the free throw circle. The Wildcats, who poured 16 free throws through the hoops, held a slim 27-25 halftime lead, but slowed the play down considerably the second period. Only 24 points were scored during the second half, compared to 52 for the first session. Butler 41 Iowa 35 The third time against Big Ten competition was a charm for the Bulldogs, who staged a garrison finish to bring themselves out of the red ' with two wins and two losses. Although trailing 21-17 at halftime, the Fairview Flyers began flying as the game wore on and the lowans wore out, and there was little doubt, soon after the second half opened, as to who v ould be the winner. Butler 39 Pittsburgh 29 The famous Pitt figure eight offense put the Panthers behind the eight ball this time, as the Bulldogs uncorked another of their second-half attacks to chalk up one of their most decisive wins. Held to an 18-16 lead at the half,the locals held the easterners to 13 points during the second stanza while piling up a ten-point lead. Big Glenn Miller, sensational sophomore center, came into his own, leading Butler ' s scoring with 16 points on eight buckets. Purdue 50 Butler 34 The Bulldogs made a game of this for a while, but the Boilermakers were hot , and couldn t be beaten. They led at the half 20-14 and increased their pace during the second half, and this time the Bulldogs couldn t get their second-stanza really going. Illinois 52 Butler 50 For the second straight time the Bulldogs lose without being outscored from the field. Although matching the lllini — who later went on to win the Big Ten title — bucket for bucket throughout the fray, the Fairview Flyers fell short at the free circle. The Bulldogs trailed at halftime by a ten-point 29-19 margin, but led the way throughout the second half. Butler 45 Michigan 37 Still romping along Big Ten trails, the Bulldogs broke a 19-19 holftime deadlock to chalk up one of the cleanest wins of the season. Forwards, Woody Norris and Wibber Schu- macher, and Center, Glenn Miller, were still in the spotlight, scoring all but 12 of Butler ' s points. The issue was still in doubt with only six minutes to play, but a late Butler rally put the game on ice. Butler 35 Oregon State 29 Playing undoubtedly one of the finest gomes ever seen on the Foirview hardwood, the Bulldogs took over a 21-18 halftime lead and stretched their margin three points more during a brilliant defensive second half. The towering west-coast quintet — rated sixth best in the nation — could account for only eleven points throughout the second half but managed to hold the Bulldog ' s to 14 points. The starting Oregon State quintet averaged more than six-feet, three-inches in height. Great Lakes 51 Butler 40 Although they staged one of the most gallant second -ha If rallies in Butler ' s record books, the Bulldogs were un- able to moke up the 30-11 deficit they had at halftime against the veteran and brilliant navy men. FHopelessly behind at the half, and thoroughly out- classed throughout the first session, they come back after the recess to outscore their veteran rivals by a 29-21 score. Butler 34 Wabash 29 It all happened in the second half. The Bulldogs, trailing 17-13 at halftime, came back to outscore their conference rivals by a 21-12 tally the second half to chalk up a victory which was much more decisive than the score. Marquette 39 Butler 29 The colorful FHilltoppers, who went on to complete one of their most successful seasons in the past decade, took over a 22-15 halftime lead and defied a Bulldog second-half rally to win this one. The Bulldogs threatened early in the second half, once closing the gap to five points, but the giant i - toppers pulled away to put the gome on ice. Butler 41 DePauw 34 A typical conference battle, hot all the way, with plenty of ' rough stuff . ' Woody Norris was the big gun in the Bulldog attack, bagging 18 points, most of them during a torrid half in which the Bulldogs were only one point better than their loop rivals. Butler led 22-16 at the half. Butler 49 Notre Dame 43 The game that put a success tog on the entire season. The Bulldogs were ' laying for this one, and the Irishmen found themselves in one of the fastest boll- gomes local fans hod a chance to see ail season. The Foirview Flyers took over a 26-21 lead at half- time, and pulled away one point farther during the nip-ond-tuck second half. Wilbur Schumacher led the Butler cause with a high total of 21 points. Butler 38 Ball State 36 A Frank Meriwell finish, this one, but a costly vic- tory for the Bulldogs. Wilbur Schumacher suffered a shoulder injury that kept him on the bench until near the end of the season. A last-second over-the-head shot by Woody ' Norris put the game into on overtime, in which the Bulldogs eked out one of the closest victories of the year. The Bulldogs had trailed throughout, until Norris ' s super shot. Michigan State 40 Butler 39 The Spartans put up the last-half stand this time, after trailing 16-14 at the half. The Bulldogs held their lead until the final moments of the gome, but a Spartan basket just before gun time gave them one of their most bitter defeats. Butler 37 Chanute Field 32 The Chanute boys hod the experience but not the wind to stay with the flying Bulldogs, who took over o 19-14 intermission lead and breezed to their triumph. Butler s balance of power was the keynote to victory, NA ith five men scoring six points apiece, and eight join- ing the final scoring. Butler 43 Franklin 31 Agqin scoring like a three-ring circus, the Bulldogs took over o 23 halftime lead and coasted to victory. If one man wasn t scoring somebody else was, the final summary showing that six men had five points or more. Jim Deputy led the firing with ten points. Butler 38 Michigan State 36 Revenge was sweet for the Bulldogs, who hod dropped an earlier one-point decision to the Spartans. Fred hlunckler led the Bulldogs, scoring eleven points, the F inklemen taking over a 16-13 intermission lead. The issue was in doubt until the timer had his gun raised for the final shot, but the determined Bulldogs managed to hold out against a threatening Spartan rally. Marquette 40 Butler 30 The FHilltoppers were still ten points better than the Bulldogs, this time each team scoring one point more than in their earlier meeting at Milwaukee. Glenn Miller scored 17 points for Butler to lead the locals, but the Bulldogs couldn ' t keep up with the pace the FHilltoppers set throughout the second half. Although leading by only on 18-16 margin at the half, the F illtoppers outscored the Bulldogs 22-14 in the second session. Wabash 42 Butler 35 The upset of the year, knocking the Bulldogs out of the conference throne. The Cavemen were primed for this one, and they hod the Bulldogs in their own lair this time. After taking over a 20-15 halftime lead, they staved off two strong Butler counter-attacks to win going away. It was Butler ' s first conference defeat in four years and snapped their string at 29 consecutive wins. Butler 32 DePauw 28 The Bulldogs launched a new conference victory string in this one, but with less than six minutes to go, it looked like a DePauw victory. The Tigers led by a 26-20 margin at this point, but the Bulldogs uncorked a blazing eleventh-hour drive that put them ahead in the final two minutes of the gome. Notre Dame 57 Butler 54 The gallant Bulldogs, led by Captain Wilbur Schu- macher, put up another one of their garrison finishes, but couldn ' t quite moke up a 33-21 halftime deficit. Schumacher, playing his lost gome for Butler, chalked up 23 points to climax a brilliant collegiate career. The Bulldogs were for behind with only eight min- utes to go, but opened fire in the late stages of battle to give the 8,000 assembled fans a thrill they will not soon forget. BASEBALL Although no gomes hod yet been played at this writing, the Bulldog baseball squad has corded an ambitious 15-game schedule, and a good season seems mora than hopeful. Despite the loss of Guy (Bud) Tex, ace pitcher, through ineligibility, the Bulldog camp is studded with capable performers, including Bill hHordy, Bernie Broderick, Fred hHunckler, Jim Deputy, Jim Baumgortner, Glen Miller, Harold Miller, Paul Weaver, Gobby Williams, Ralph Dodds, and Dick McMullen. The schedule calls for gomes ith Franklin, Depouw, Indiana, St. Joseph, Purdue, Wabash, Ball State, and Eorlhom, with five double headers and six home affairs included. From a pre-seoson view, it appears as though the Bulldog infield will be built around Glenn Miller at first base and h arQy at shortstop, with the second base situation uncertain and Broderick the most likely candidate for third base, hdunckler will be at the catching post, supported by Weaver, with hJorold Miller expected to handle the pitching assignments. In the outfield, Dodds, Williams, and McMullen seem the most promising candidates, although the fly-chosing department is as yet uncertain. It is also not yet known at this writing who will handle the coaching assignments for the baseball troupe, in the absence of Tony FJinkle, who is at Great Lakes Naval Training Station. High fly to center field Locl er-room quartet TRACK Although the outdoor track season has not opened at this writing, the cross country and indoor track seasons are neatly tucked away in the Butler record books under the heading ' success ' . Coach Ray Sear ' s cross country performers breezed through a stiff six-meet schedule with only one defeat, a 31-25 setback at the hands of Illinois Normals hill-and-dale troupe. They scored perfect 15-40 vic- tories over DePauw, Ohio University and Wabash, and beat Eastern Illinois Teachers, 17-28, and Loyola of Chicago, 25-31. The Indoor track and field squad competed in only two dual meets, losing out to Illinois and taking Western Michigan in tow, 50-44. They competed unsuccess- fully in the Notional Collegiate carnival, but copped the Midwest Conference championship at Naperville, Illinois. They lost their Butler Relays crown, however. The outdoor schedule, not under way at this writing, includes meets with Indiana State, Western Michigan, and DePauw, all away from home, besides participa- tion in the Drake Relays, the Little State Meet, and the Big State meet, and the Notional Collegiate Carnival. Knowles Bagby Dreesen Nahmias Rice Winton Clark On your mark 1942 RELAYS The fall of Michigan and Butler from the University and College division thrones respectively and the setting of three new records featured the tenth annual Butler Indoor Relays, held in the fieldhouse March 14. Notre Dame ' s Fightin ' Irishmen replaced the Wolver- ines as University-division champions and Miami took over Butler ' s College-division crov n. New records were set by Nebraska ' s hiarold hlunt, who pole-vaulted 14 feet, one and one-fourth inches,- the Prairie View Mile Relay quartet, which turned in a sizzling 3:25.4,- and the Prairie View Sprint-Medley foursome, which clipped off a very fast 3:42.5. Although the field was the smallest in several years, the cream of the crop was there, as witness the return of the 1941 champions in all six special events. All special-event champions repeated, save Don Olsen of Illinois who gave way to Ohio States sen- sational Bob Wright in the low hurdles. Wright, who was awarded the trophy as the out- standing all-round athlete of the Relays, also copped the high hurdles, while Pittsburgh ' s Bill Carter took the 60-Yard Dash, Notre Dame ' s Keith O ' Rourke and Jim Delaney won the high jump and shot put respectively, and hdunt captured the pole vault. Winners in the University Relay events were Notre Dame in the Mile, Indiana in the Two Mile, Illinois in the Four Mile and Indiana in the Distance Medley. College-division winners were Prairie View in the Mile and Sprint Medley and Miami in the Two Miles and Distance Medley. Behind Notre Dome in the final University-division standings, were Ohio State, second; Indiana, third,- Nebraska, fourth, Michigan, fifth,- Illinois, sixth,- Pitts- burgh, seventh,- and Northwestern and Purdue tied for eighth. Behind Miami in the College-division standings were Western Michigan, second; Prairie View, third; Butler, fourth; Eorlhom, fifth; and Pittsburgh Teachers, sixth. Oueen of the Butler junior.

FRESHMAN ATHLETICS Although defeated in both football and basketball for the first time In seven years, Coach Frank (Pep) hiedden ' s freshman athletes turned In definitely suc- cessful seasons. The frosh gridmen split their two-game season, lam- basting Wabash, 40-0, but succumbing to a sterling DePauw defense, losing out by a 7-0 score. hiedden ' s netmen, meanwhile, won four of the six gomes. After turning in a 39-15 victory over Wabash, whipping St. Joe twice, by scores of 37-34 and 50-41, and tripping Wabash in a return tilt, 26-18, they dropped their last two games to Ball State and De- Pauw, by scores of 46-42 and 32-30 respectively. Coach Ray Sear ' s rhinie cross country runners finished their two-meet season undefeated, turning in a 15-40 victory over Indiana State and setting down the Wabash harriers by a 16-39 count. Dove LoVlne was elected honorary football captain and John Barrowcliffe honorary net captain.

Freshman basketball numerals went to Barrowcliffe, Bragg, Choleff, Fordyce, Geiman, Gerrish, Krizmis, Kuebler, Lockwood, Mathes, Mengle, Nohmios, Rehl, Stout and White. INTRAMURALS This year a great emphasis was placed on intra- mural activity. Each organization was encouraged to participate fully in each activity and the school went to great expense to broaden the physical activities of the men students. Pop hiedden, Freshman coach, was placed in charge of the intramural program. The intramural program consisted of the following competitive sports: The Basketball season ended in a three way tie for first place between BIA, Phi Delta Theta and Re- ligion. A playoff was necessary to decide the top three positions. BIA won the championship by de- feating the other two contenders. Phi Delta Theta gained second place by defeating the Religion netters. A post season tourney was held and BIA also won this by defeating Delta Tau Delta and Religion. The ministers reached the finals by defeating the Phi Delts. Major Minor Football Ping Pong Basketball Bowling Baseball Golf Track hlorseshoes Swimming Tennis The winner of each event received a trophy and each team member was awarded a medal to sym.bolize their victory. At the end of the season a trophy was awarded to the organization which had the most competitive points. The points were awarded on the first three places. In major sports the winner collects ten points, six points for second, and third place re- ceives two points. For the minor events the point system is based on a 5-3-1 percentage. Phi Delta Theta was again victorious in intramural swimming. This team edged out the Unorganized, and Sigma Nu teams. The final standing was Phi Delta Theta— 23 Pts., Unorganized— 22 Pts., Sigma Nu— 21 Pts. The following events highlighted the program: 50 yd. freestyle, 100 yd. freestyle, 50 yd. backstroke, 50 yd. breaststroke, 200 yd. relay, and 100 yd. medley relay. hiarry Ent and Wayne Endicott of Phi Delta Theta and Sigma Nu respectively, each won two individual events. The annual bowling tourney was held at Parkway alleys. Sigma Chi dethrowned the Sigma Nus, last years bowling champs. The Sigs had a tolal of 2461 pins while the defendi ng champs were able to get only 2446 pins. The Phi Delts bowled their way into third place. Special events have been added to give the intra- mural program a brighter color. At the close of the football season on all-star team was chosen to ploy the winner in this division. After the termination of the basketball season an extra post-season tourney was held. The top four teams in this bracket competed. The football season ended with the Phi Delts and Religion in a tie for first place, with records of six victories and one defeat. In a playoff for first place the Phi Delts conquered the Religion team by a 15-7 score. In the post season tourney. Phi Delta Theta, crippled by injuries, was defeated 6-0 by the all- stars . At this writing four events have been completed- Bosketball, football, swimming and bowling. The Phi Delts have taken a big step toward retaining the all-intromurol trophy won last year. They hove amassed 22 points. In second place is the College of Religion with 12 points. Other point totals are B.I. A. — 10 Pts., Sigma Nu — 6 Pts., Sigma Chi — 5 Pts., and Unorganized — 3 Pts. This year the following organizations have taken part in the all-intramural competition: Phi Delta Theta, Sigma Nu, Sigma Chi, Lambda Chi Alpha, Delta Tau Delta, B. I. A., Unorganized, College of Religion, Bond, Y. M. C. A., and Indiana Law School. WOMEN ' S PHYSICAL EDUCATION The Women ' s department of Physical Education boasts o host of activities to attract coeds at Butler. Not only does it give a chance to learn in classes, but also it gives an opportunity to participate in various tourna- ments sponsored by W.A.A. Classes start early in the morning and the girls have access to the gym until five each Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday afternoons. Tennis, hockey, basketball, fencing, archery, golf, swimming, volleyball, bowling, and horsemanship are among the many classes and contests held during the school year. The first tournament held in the Fall was tennis singles. After a fight to the finish battle Mitzi Longere was named the champion. Tournaments in hockey, ping-pong, golf, basketball, volleyball, bowling, badminton, and Softball were held following tennis. The highlights of this year ' s activities were an intra- class track meet held between the fall and spring semesters and the Civilian Defense Class, incorporated this year by Miss Louise Schulmeyer, head of the de- partment, which gives the girls the opportunity to take conditioning exercises to maintain their health. B MEN ' S CLUB Butler s undergraduate B men banded together last fall to form the university ' s first underclassman lettermon ' s club. The alumni B Men ' s club has been in existence for some time but it is not connected with the undergraduate chapter. Weekly get-togethers ore held every Wednesday at the Canary Cottage. Officers of the nev ly formed club are Elwood (Woooy) Norris, president,- Jim Deputy, vice-president,- Moe Nohmias, secretary-treasurer; Ray Alsbury, publicity agent; hiarold Miller, sergeont-ot-arms, and Dick Clark, reporter. The first activity of the student B men was to sponsor a basketball game between the Butler varsity and a group of all-staralumni. The game was played in the fieldhouse Dec. 9. Proceeds from the tilt went to furnish a combined recrea- tion-trophy lounge for the B men. The lounge is located in the old concession room in the east end of the fieldhouse just across from the athletic office. Plans have been made to move all of Butler ' s trophies into the room. The committee which hod charge of outfitting the room included Clark, chairman, assisted by Nahmias, Deputy, Joe Guennel, and Wallace Potter. The lettermen ' s club plans to sponsor several Butler athletic events next year to raise funds for the organization. Among these events will be the traditional varsity-freshman football scrap. The purpose of the club is to foster interest in Butler athletics. BOTTOM ROW— Hillring, D. Zavella, Kruse, G. Zavella, Schumacher, Deputy.

The Rainbow Fraternity, founded in 1848 at the University of Mississippi, amalgamated with Delta Tau Delta in 1886. The Fraternity now has 76 undergraduate chapers, 71 alumni chapers, and a membership of over 35,000. Since Beta Zeta Chapter was founded inM875, 553 Butler men have become loyal Delts, including Thomas Carr hlowe, former president of Butler; James B. Curtis, past president of Delta Tau Delta and one of the organizers of the National Interfroternity Conference; John W. Atherton, Secretory-Treasurer of Butler University; hJarold B. Tharp, another former national president of the Fraternity and president of the Indianapolis Community Fund; and FJermon W. Phillips, former Butler track coach and now track coach at Purdue. Scholostically, Delta Tau Delta has ranked first nationally over all other fraternities twice out of the last three years, and on the Butler campus, except for one semester, has topped the fraternities for the lost five years. The chapter entered into school activities with a will and enjoyed many social events. Open FHouse was held in October, when the new pledges were formally presented. Out of the swirl of homecoming activities the Delts managed to snore the trophy for the best float in the parade, and welcomed over fifty alumni bock to the Shelter. In November the pledges gave their annual hJard Times Dance, and during Thanksgiving vacation the chapter held its 32nd annual FHouse Party at Turkey Run State Park. The Delts won the Christmas Cheer Drive Trophy, and held their annual Christmas Party for a group of orphans on December 1 8th. The formal Pledge Dance was held on February 21st at the Morott hJotel. On March seventh the annual State Founder ' s Day banquet and dance were held at the Indian- apolis Athletic Club. To cop the social season the chapter held its annual formal dinner-dance on June fifth at the Ulen Country Club, Lebanon, Indiana. This year Beta Zeta worked together under the leadership of Edward Taylor, president; Tom Markin, vice-president; Pitcher, treasurer; Dick FHudelson, corresponding secretary; and Bob Wildman, recording secretary. Of the many brothers participating in the various branches of campus activity. Brother Taylor was elected Junior Prom chairman. Bill Ransdell served the university as Advertising Manager, and Bob Dreessen, who was elected to Blue Key, was chosen captain of next year ' s cross-country squad. Housemother: Mrs. Grace M.

LAMBDA CHI ALPHA The beginning of the Lambda Chi Alpha may be traced as far bacl as 1905, when the Cosmopolitan Club, which later became the parent of Alpha Zeta, the First unit of the fraternity, was established at Boston University. As Lambda Chi Alpha embarks on her twenty-sixth year, everywhere it is proving its worthiness ,and university officials, parents of student members, and the public generally are learning to understand and appreciate what it can be and what it can do for manhood. Lambda Chi Alpha is indeed fortunate to have become firmly entrenched in one hundred and nine leading uni- versities and colleges throughout our country and Canada. At present Lambda Chi Alpha is the largest national fraternity on the Butler Campus. The Mothers ' Club has proven to be a very valuable and helpful organization. Their purpose has been always to promote the education, social, and financial welfare of the local chapter. The Mothers ' Club sponsored a ban- quet at the chapter house honoring all the Lambda Chi ' s who participated in varsity and freshman athletics. Guest speakers were Tony hlinkle, Wally Middlesworth, and Lloyd Cloycombe. The chapter house also received out- standing gifts from the Mothers and all seniors were presented with fraternity plaques. Under the leadership of Robert P. Roberts and hiarold C. Mossey the members of the fraternity hove enjoyed a very successful year. A fine well balanced program of scholastic, social, and extra-curricular activities have been carried out by these two presidents. In November, the Monte Carlo Dance was held at the chapter house and this affair proved to be one of the best dances ever given on the Butler Campus. The State Dance, bringing together all the seven chapters in Indiana, was held at the Columbia Club on February 14, 1942. The Annual Spring Formal was held at the Ulen Country Club in Lebanon. Exchange dinners and socials were also an important part of the Lambda Chi Alpha s program. In the field of university athletics Lambda Chi Alpha has token a commanding position. Twelve members were on the varsity football team. We had our shore of football captains. Robert P. Roberts captained the varsity football squad and David LaVine led the Rhinie team, Oscar hlillring, who received varsity letters in football and track, was the captain of the track team. In the field of basketball and baseball we were also well represented. Patriotism prompted many Lambda Chis to enlist during the first World War. Since our country has been engaged in war already brothers of the local chapter have enlisted in the armed forces and still more will follow. Next to country comes our alma mater. The entire membership of Lambda Chi Alpha pledges its utmost loyalty and support to Butler University. Housemother: Mrs. Frances Brecount PHI DELTA THETA As Indiana Gamma of Phi Delta Theta ends its 83rd year of continuous existence as the oldest fraternity on the Butler campus, it is of interest, in view of the present period of strife, to recall the contributions it has made to school and country. Indiana Gamma, founded at Butler in 1859, was yet in its infancy when the nation was plunged into Civil War. As did the knights of old, members of the chapter took up arms gallantly and courageously in defense of the Union. Two did not return. F or from the fellowship of college brothers, Piatt Squire died in the battle of Shiloh and one other brother, Perry Hall ' 59, died in service. Thus it has been down through the years,- Phis from Butler have been ever loyal to their country and have, in several instances, willingly rendered the supreme sacrifice for that loyalty. In the present conflict, Indiana Gamma proudly numbers over fifty wearers of the Sword and Shield, who hove answered the call of their country. In any account of the history of Indiana Gamma, or Butler University, no matter how incomplete, mention is always made of our beloved brother hHilton U. Brown. Phis of Butler hold only the greatest love for this truly great man. Brother Brown, who is chairman of the Butler Board of Directors, was president of the General Council of all Phi Delt chapters from 1882 to 1886. At the fraternity national convention at Minneapolis in 1940, Phis from all over the United States and Canada rose for a dramatic twenty-minute tribute to this dear brother of ours, as he descended from the speakers rostrum. Brother Brown ' s son. Brother hHilton U. Brown, Jr., was killed in action at Nuart, France on November 3, 1918 — only eight days before the Armistice. Since the fraternity s founding on December 26, 1848 as a part of the Miami University triad. Phi Delta Theta has grown until it now possesses 106 chapters who have initiated over 50,000 members. Over 750 men hove signed the Bond at Indiana Gama. Ever mindful of its precious heritage, active Phis this year have held high the position of the fraternity on the cam- pus. Brothers Dick Guy and Jim Deputy have ably plotted the course for the jolly crew as first and second semester presidents respectively. Those members who did not compete in varsity or freshman athletics enjoyed many sports events on the intramural program, winning the football, and swimming championships and, at this writing, are in a three way tie for first in basketball. The chapter held presidencies of the Junior and Freshman classes. Well rep- resented in honoraries. Phi Delta Theta also claimed presidency of Blue Key. The chapter participated fully in all school-sponsored contests, winning their shore of the firsts . The three main social events were the Christmas dance and the State-day banquets at the Columbia Club and the annual Ohio River boot dance at hdanover.

SIGMA CHI Political rivalry, heated athletic contests, and last minute drives in school competition played only a port m one of Sigma Chi ' s most interesting and unusual years of 77 years existence as a port of Butler University. Founded ten years after the Mother Chapter at Miami University, it has grov n with Butler until today it has the largest chapter in its history, boasting over 50 men. Feeling the closeness desired betv een the fraternity and the school, Sigma Chi took port in most Butler functions, winning their share of the inter-fraternity trophies. Prized most of all was permanent possession of the beautiful hiinkle Football Trophy, having won it for the second year in o row. FHighlighting the social calendar was a faculty tea at Christmas time during which the fraternity glee-club sang Christmas, school, and fraternity songs. The pledges entertained the actives and their dotes at the annual Christmas dinner-dance and the actives reciprocated with the Spring Formal given in June. Thirteen men were initiated on March 14, the day of the State Day dance, and special invitations were sent to all active and alumni chapters in Indiana. Rho chapter was honored by a visit from its notional president and a banquet was given m his honor. Sigma Chi was justly proud of the visit because it was the president ' s f-irst official stop after his election. Mrs, Julia Sweet was formally mode the Sweetheart of Sigma Chi at an Open hlouse in her honor and the pledges were introduced to the campus. The Sigma Chi Mothers ' Club proved to be even more a part of the fraternity when it undertook, with the active chapter, to redecorate the house. Many new furnishings were given to the boys and plans hove already been made to continue this work next year. The army hit the fraternity hard when it took two seniors, Jock Evard and Jock Flynn, and one junior, George Bender. The chapter has suffered from the loss of these boys. Max Norris led the fraternity during the second semester of the school year after James Neal hod held the reins the first semester. Other officers were Robert Bensema, vice-president,- James Seller, treasurer,- Donald Baker, secretory; Thomas Luck, historian; Frank Goll, pledge trainer,- Robert Ohiyer, tribune; arry Evard, editor; and - a Plummer, house manager. Housemotlier: Mrs. Julia Sweet SIGMA NU Sigma Nu Fraternity was founded January 1, 1869, at Virginia Military Institute, Lexington, Virginia,- the fraternity was first called the Legion of hlonor. Since its birth, it has grown to be an organization consisting of 98 active chapters and 12 inactive chapters, and boasts a membership of over 33,000 men. Epsilon Mu, the Butler chapter, was chartered on May 7, 1926, and is the youngest fraternity on the campus. This year the fraternity was headed by Commander Wilbur Schumacher. Other officers included Frank King, Lieu- tenant-Commander; Chester Robinson, Recorder,- Robert McMurtry, Chaplain; Sam Meyers, Sentinel; Morris Boyce, Pledgemaster and Alumni Contact; Robert FHartman, Marshall; William McLeod, Historian; and Nick Smyrnis, Reporter. The customary serenading of the campus sororities at their formal pledging was held as one of the most important fail rush activities. A bouquet was presented to each sorority head. On November 28, the pledge chapter gave its annual dance at the Riviera Club with Nick Craciunuoi ' s orchestra. Jack Clark was in charge of the dance. Sigma Nu for the fifth consecutive year won the trophy offered to the fraternity collecting the most wood for the hlomecoming bonfire, October 24. On December 18, fifteen unfortunate children chosen by Fletcher Avenue Goodwill Industries were feted at the chapter house in the Christmas tradition, Santo Clous, toys, and candy all playing an important role. Social progress continued with a winter formal dinner-dance at the Columbia Club, January 22, 1942, with Chuck Smith s orchestra furnishing the music. This dance served as a relaxation from the tension produced by finals. Scholosticolly, Epsilon Mu fared well, ending the first semester high among the fraternities and surpassing the all- men ' s average. Another trophy which was added to the large collection already on the shelves was the Relay trophy which is awarded to the fraternity selling the most tickets to the annual Butler Indoor Relays. This was the fourth time in a row for the chapter. Following a week of intensive pre-initiotion training, impressive initiation ceremonies were conducted on March 22, for the eligible candidates. A banquet was held afterwards in honor of the new initiates. Other events on Epsilon Mu ' s calendar were o picnic at Brown County during the month of May, the Sigma Nu FToosier Rally, and the spring formal.

In the United States and Canada there are now 63 active chapters with 1 5,000 members. The Alpha Chi chapter was established on Butler campus in 1925. The oH ' icers who have guided Alpha Chi through a successful year are: President, Betty Graham,- Vice-President, hHelen Mock,- Recording Secretary, Jean Benham,- Corresponding Secretary, Mary Lawson; Rush Chairman, Joan hiixon; Treasurer, Betty Ann Ginney; Warden, Jean Buschmann,- hlouse Manager, Virginia Pletcher; Publicity, Jane hiowe,- Chaplain, Wilma Gray,- and Social Chairman, Jeanne Steiner. The sorority started the year by giving a Stardust Banquet at the Indianapolis Athletic Club in honor of the new pledges. At our Annuo! Open hHouse on October 12, 1941 Alpha Chi introduced to the campus its new pledges and its nev housemother, Mrs. Anne Kirkiand. The winter social season was highlighted by Christmas Dance held at the chapter house for both actives and pledges. Alpha Chis had their annual Christmas Party on December 17, at which time razz gifts were exchanged. Members also serenaded and distributed wreaths to all the sororities and fraternities. On February 14, 1942 the pledges entertained the active chapter with a Valentine Donee ' , and they presented each active with a lovely crested leather billfold. During the mid-semester vacation Alpha Chi was happy to have as a guest Mrs. Ruth Windsor, the national presi- dent of Alpha Chi Omega. This year the Tri-Provence Convention of Alpha Chi Omega was held in Indianapolis on February 20 and 21. A buffet supper was held at the chapter house for the delegates from chapters in Michigan, Illinois, Ohio, Indiana, and Canada, and also many national officers. A patriotic motif prevailed in the decorations on February 21, for the annual State Day luncheon one guests at the dance were men of the army, navy, and marines. Spe During the year. Alpha Chis have taken an active part in campus activities. In the annual class elections Dons Fricke was chosen secretary of the Sophomore Class, and Dorothy Anderson was elected Freshman Class secretary. Mary Marjorie Smeod was the winner of the $25 Minturn award for the best essay on the Plymouth Colony. Members of the sorority are represented in many honorories; Y. W. C. A. , W. A. A., and Women s League, and hove given their cooperation to hHomecoming, Geneva Stunts, Relay s, school dances, and Founders Day.

DELTA GAMMA Delta Gamma was founded at the Lewis School, Oxford, Mississippi, January 2, 1874. Alpha Tau was organized on the Butler Campus in 1925. Delta Gamma was among the seven sororities that mode up the first National Pon- hellenic Congress. At the beginning of the school year there were 55 collegiate chapters and more than twenty thousand Delta Gammas in the United States and Canada. Delta Gamma opened its social season by introducing twenty three new pledges at Open hHouse. At the same time the newly decorated home was shown. Winter social activities began with Turkey Trot at the house, given by the pledges for the actives. Later a Dad ' s Day Dinner was given at which the pledges entertained with a stunt. The entire chapter participated in a Christmas party where razz awards and other gifts were exhanged. Following the party the chapter serenaded other fraternities and sororities. The annual Christmas Dinner-Dance was held in December at the Columbia Club for both actives and pledges. Another event on the Delta Gamma social calendar was the Founder ' s Day Dinner-Dance in March. The pledges gave their traditional Spring Formal in April, and the social season was climaxed in June by a dance honoring the Seniors. The Delta Gamma ' s were saddened when the housemother, Mrs. Emma O ' Shea passed away in January, hlowever under the able guidance of Mrs. Grace Young, the new housemother. Delta Gamma recovered from this great loss. The girls honored Mrs. Young with a tea held at the house. During the past year Delta Gamma has been quite active on campus,- having members in most organizations and taking part in several offices, such as Pan-hellenic president, junior class treasurer and the honorories. Early in the year two Bulldog cups were added to the trophy shelf;one for the organization selling the most subscrip- tions and one for the individual selling the most. Soon afteranother cup was added for FHomecoming FHouse Decoration. The chapter officers ore: Jane Henry, president; Beverly Cooper, vice-president; Jane Collins, secretary; rielen Cotton, treasurer; and Phyllis hlodden, pledge-mistress. Delta Gamma has been very active in War Work. The annual State Day was not held this year and the money usually expended for this purpose was used to buy bonds. During the last war Delta Gamma was very active, and will continue to be the same now. The girls entertained groups of soldiers and sailors at the house, and also went to Billings hlospital at Fort Benjamin FTorrison to entertain a group of the soldiers. Housemother: Mrs. Grace Youn KAPP A ALPHA THETA Kappa Alpha Theto sorority was founded on the DePouw University campus in 1870. During the course oF seventy- one years, seventy-five active chapters have been established in the United States and Canada with a membership of twenty-five thousand. Gamma chapter was organized at Butler in 1874, being the First sorority to come into its own on this campus. The fall semester was introduced successfully when Theta pledged eighteen freshmen and six upperclassmen v ho received guests at a formal tea and open house. Soon after, Thetas enjoyed a visit at the house by the new district president, Laura Louise McCutchen. The winter social season was highlighted by the performance of Anson Weeks and his orchestra at the annual Christmas dinner-dance at the Southern Mansion for pledges, actives, and alumnae. In February, Thetas had the customary Dad ' s Day Dinner at the chapter house. Afterwards the members and their guests attended the Michigan State basketball game. Gamma completed the school year by its pledges giving a dance for the active members and their guests. This is a traditional event in so-far as the pledges have completed their year ' s standing as pledges . Tradition covers one extreme to the other, and so it is that the chapter gave its annual dance for the graduating seniors in June at the chapter house. Since Theta stands for high scholastic attainment, she is proud to rank very high among the campus organizations, rier greatest efforts are along this course of accomplishment as may be seen by her members in every honorary on the campus. This year the chapterclaimed several club presidents and class officers, among whom are, Lois Mathieson, president of Women ' s League,- Jean h ackerd, president of Welwyn Club; Alberta Wells, president of Spurs hHonorary,- Jane Mottern, president of Phi Chi Nu hlonorary,- and Ruth Sumner, vice-president of the freshman class. Theta had two Student Council members, namely, Sally Steinbaugh and Mary Lou Robinson. The chapter was happy to claim, also, the Relays Queen, Barbara Fuller, and three Drift queens, Betty Bowes, Mary Lou Robinson, and Dorothy Brown. Throughout the post eighteen years Mrs. Mary Keegan, Theta ' s faithful housemother, has been invaluable in giving her helpful services to the girls.
