LayL f Last spring the navy took over the Butler fieldhouse which entailed the building of the new caFeteria and the new women ' s gym — then came the onrush of the Army Air Crew to hold classes in Jordan Hall and to take over fraternity houses. Coeds, too, have done their part by playing hostesses to sailors and soldiers at dinner, socials, and parties throughout the year. c U tcMiXcn t Butler has a new president, Dr. M. O. Ross, but Dr. Ross is no stranger to Butler students. Dr. Ross came to Butler in 1938 as the first dean and organizer of the College of Business Administration. He assumed the role as acting president of the institution last spring and accepted the office permanently during the fall of ' 42. Before coming to Butler Dr. Ross served for thirteen years as dean at Earlham college and was a professor at the University of Tennessee. Dr. Ross was married to the former Miss Rachel Borders of Mississippi in 1929. The pride and joy of the Ross household is young Jerry, aged three and a half, who lives with his parents in the president s house of the university. Dr. Ross ' s acceptance of the office of president was comparatively unheralded and unsung . In a time of war university officials felt that an impres- sive inaugural ceremony would be out of place, so Dr. Ross moved from his second story office to the first floor and went on with the duties he had been discharging as acting president. The policy of the university during wartime is two-fold, according to Dr. Ross. The first duty of the institution is to aid the government and the armed forces in educational programs. The second is to maintain the regular college program for civilian students. During his term as acting president the Naval Signal Corps school was established in the field- house. r Since February the former Campus Club, which served as the school canteen, has been transformed into the girls gym and a new cafeteria has been constructed in the basement of Jordan Hall. Dr. Ross also reorganized the Student-Faculty War Council with a five point program calling for the regular purchase by students and faculty mem- bers of war stamps, the collection of scrap metal, donations of blood to the Red Cross blood bank, air-raid and fire protection and a series of lectures on nutrition open to students and the public. Cooperating with the military branches of the United States, approximately 50 per cent of the enrolled men students are enlisted in the reserve corps of the army, navy and marines. Many of these hove already been called to active service. Dr. Ross has been instrumental in realigning the university curriculum in the sciences and mathe- matics in order to better serve the nation s war program. With the advent of the Army Air crew school he has aided in the reorganization of uni- versity programs to free Butler professors to teach classes to the servicemen. The university has also altered its program to include several training courses for war industries in both day and evening school divisions. Butler is proud of its new president — proud of his ability to make our university meet the standards it has always held, even during a time when the remainder of the world is torn by confusion. The 52nd College Training Detachment of Butler University was establis hed on March 1, 1943. The purpose of this work was to offer additional college training to air crew students who ore potential pilots. These potential pilots study physics, physics laboratory, mathematics, geography, his- tory, and English under a corps of faculty professors. Besides this academic work these students are required to take two hours of military work doily- one hour of physical education and ten hours of flying. The flying is conducted at Hoosier Airport under the direction of Mr. Shank who has thirty-two trainer planes. The daily schedule of these students starts at 5:30 in the morning and ends with taps at 9:30 each night. During the day they have one hour of supervised study and again at night they hove one hour and a half for concentration work. It is really a marvelous opportunity for any young man to attend college at the expense of his govern- ment and at the same time, learn to serve his country by becoming an aviator. The air crew students are stationed in the field house and in the various fraternity houses. Head- quarters ore in the former faculty lounge in Jordan Hall. The arrival of the United States Navy Signal School on the campus last spring was the first step toward the revolutionizing of the campus and making the student body accutely war conscious. Over five hundred sailors were stationed in what was once the scene of Butler athletic events, the fieldhouse. Sleeping quarters were constructed in what used to be the gym, the track was covered with asphalt to serve as a place for drilling, and a new and modern kitchen and mess hall were installed. The out-doted heating plant was stripped and a new one was installed. The boys in blue soon became a familiar sight around the campus. They held classes in classrooms in Jordan Hall. Many of the campus sororities held socials and dinners in honor of the sailors. They were admitted free to Butler football games. The familiar football field was converted into a signal practice training field. The telephone poles became masts bearing pulleys and gaily colored signal flags. The field itself became a drilling ground for training the men. Commander H. C. Sigtenhorst commanded the ship. Classes were graduated from the school every three months. However, with the arrival of the army air crew mid-way in the second semester the navy was on its way out. The last class of signa men trained to serve their country at Butler was graduated early in June. ficial U. S. Niivy Photographs Mi The war and rationing that has come with it has entailed other changes at Butler besides the advent of the navy and the army aircrew, the construction of the new gym and of a new cafeteria. Butler students amusements and social activities have also been revised and curtailed. Many of the sororities have entertained members of the armed forces at socials and dinners throughout the year. The fraternities, too, have done their share in acting as hosts for the servicemen at dinners and smokers. But for their own amusement students found that there just wasn t enough gas behind an A ' coupon to allow them to run off to Eaton ' s or the Porkmoor on Wednesday night dates in the traditional man- ner, and when cold weather set in, walks to the drug store became impractical as well as uncomfortable. So Butler s Student Council dreamed up a new form of entertainment for the students. A variety that needed no automobiles, no tires, no gasoline — one that was made easily accessible to all — by foot. The answer to the Wednesday-night-where- to-go problem was found on the campus in the Student Mixers. Several mixers were held throughout the year in the student lounge and the new cafeteria. They provided some place for the students to go, and they were inexpensive, 1 5c for one or 25c a couple. Another feature of the affairs was that both the men and the women students could attend them without dates if they preferred. The mixers were held from 9 until 10:45 p.m. so that students would hove no trouble in attending them after their regular Wednesday night meetings and so that sorority girls could get in safely under the wire without the usual last minute breath-taking rush. Joe Zainey s band, composed primarily of Butler students, was a regular feature of the get-togethers. Dancing could be found in the cafeteria, or if students preferred, bridge gomes were always in evidence in the student lounge. Refreshments were easily obtainable — a nickel in one of the coke machines and presto! All the mixers were chaper- oned by members of the Butler faculty and their wives and by Dr. Karl S. Means, president of the Men s Council. Another beauty of the mixers was that they were strictly informal — joe clothes were strictly THE dress. 10 STUDENT MIXERS One of the mixers was sponsored by Spurs, sophomore women ' s honorary organization. The highlight of the evening was the floor show — Dave Patrick, who really rendered songs in the old fashioned manner, and Mary Marjorie Smead, who sang several numbers. The new cafeteria was also used for other student affairs during the year. The Loyalty Legion sponsored a tea dance to a nickelodeon after one of the football games early in the fall. The cafeteria was also the scene of the Y.M.C.A. box supper given to raise funds to purchase a plaque to honor Butler boys now serving their country. Coeds furnished the box lunches which were auctioned off to the men students— the purchaser of a coed s box automatically became her date for the evening in the good old fashioned style. Butler eds were given an opportunity to strut their stuff, for a change, in a sweater boy ' .°, ' ! - ' ,° ' , B d ' Leikhim emerged with the title, Butler ' s Sweater Boy. The S erve .:ir As Butler men students have been called into the service so have our professors. And many of those who hove remained are doing their part in serving their country by teaching classes of the Army Air Crew division now stationed at Butler. The first to go into the service was James Hauss, former Butler line coach, who is now directing physical education for the navy in San Diego. Other members of Butler ' s athletic staff have also left for the service — Coach Tony Hinkle is now head of athletics at Great Lakes Training staion and Hugh Wally Middlesworth is now in the army. O ' her members of the faculty who are now in the service are Clyde Clark, Dr. Albert E. Highley, Prof, hloword Z. Stewart, Prof. George A. Schu- macher, Dr. Merwyn Bridenstine, Prof. Ray Sears, Prof. Donald Sparks, Mr. Harry Weaver, Prof. Russell Townsend and Dr. George Davis. Butler is proud of its professors who have given themselves to the service of their country — whether it be in active duty or in instructing the boys who ore still to leave. Army Enlistment Reserve Corps Committee The Army Enlistment Reserve Corps Com- mittee was appointed by President Ross in July 1942 to act as a liason agency between the mil- itary authorities and Butler University. As such it has served as a clearing house For the dis- semination of military information affecting college students. It was organized with the specific task of selecting students for the unclassified army reserve. In that capacity the committee held 39 meetings and interviewed 132 students, 104 of whom were ad- mitted to the army reserve. It also advised other students who were interested in some other branch of the military service with the result that 64 boys entered the navy and 37 joined the marines. With the discontinuance of the enlisted re- serve program in December, 1942, the com- mittee assumed other duties. At present it is concerned mainly with giving examinations for the navy V-1 2 program and army A-1 2 program, with making out the final papers for boys called into active service, and with answering the many questions asked by others seeking advice. The great amount of individual advising and clerical work was done in the registrar s office by Mr. C. R. Maxam, the chairman of the committee and by Mrs. Ruth Deming, who served as secretary. Other members of the Enlistment Reserve Corps Committee in addition to Mr. Maxam and Mrs. Deming are Dr. A. Dale Beeler and Professor Albert Mock. 13 - Physical Fitness The war has affected the physical education pro- grams at Butler as it has affected the entire uni- versity curriculum. The entrance of the navy and the army in our fieldhouse resulted in the conversion of the old Campus Club into a new gymnasium for use by both men and women s classes. Although the facilities are somewhat limited, both programs are of a nature of which the university may be proud. The women s physical education program is under the direction of Miss Louise M. Schulmeyer. Her staff is supplemented by Mrs. Turpin Davis and Mrs. Marcia Reisser. Under their capable direc- tion women students are able to obtain instruction in tennis, archery, fencing, swimming, golf, and team sports such as volleyball and basketball. During her first year at Butler Mrs. Reisser has inaugurated a new program for freshman girls based on the correction of such physical defects as posture and weight. At the beginning of the year pictures were taken of all the coeds which will be compared with the girls themselves at the end of the year. Each girl is considered individually and given special e xercises for the correction of her own personal defects. The department holds special classes for girls majoring in physical education to give them a knowledge of sports techniques. To aid them in acquiring an ability for leadership these girls are given the opportunity to instruct classes com- posed of the younger girls. Every year the depart- ment graduates a number of girls ready to assume teaching positions in the field of physical educa- tion. In an effort to better fit Butler men students for duty in the armed services the administration this year began a program of physical fitness com- pulsory for all men students. The program is under the direction of Frank Pop Hedden and Walt Floyd. In order to pass the course a student must be able to do twenty-five push-ups, seventy-five knee-bends, run the obstacle course constructed between Jordan Hall and the fieldhouse in three minutes, run the quarter mile in seventy seconds, the hundred yard dash in thirteen seconds, throw a baseball one hundred and fifty feet, put the shot thirly feet, broad jump a distance of fifteen feet, and do the burp test twenty times in three minutes. During the second semester the classes were put on a contest basis. The ten outstanding students in each group were awarded points for their achieve- ments, 1000 points for the first place winner, 900 for the second and so on. In the spring an award was presented to the man having the highest number of points in all classes and medals were also given to the second and third place winners. A medal was also presented to the man who was judged OS having the best mental attitude toward the course. With the coming of the army Hedden and Floyd assumed the direction of the athletic program for the air crew students. The training program for the army students consists primarily of team sports and calisthenics. Since the beginning of the war the American public has begun to realize the importance of such training programs as that now being offered at Butler. . r ' BT ;:.K- i ADMINISTRATION With constant changes occuring in a university in times of war, the Butler University Board of Directors has made several important decisions this year relative to the school. When the board voted to name Dr. M. O. Ross president of the university in December, the action was one approved by all students and faculty members at Butler. In appointing the new president, the board chose Dr. Ross not only for his extensive collegiate experience but also for his experience in active service during the lost war, a factor that is of help in directing a university under a wartime program. Since June, 1942, the Board of Directors has negotiated terms with the United States Army and Navy to train Army Aircrew students and Naval signal corps men on the campus and in the Butler fieldhouse, a measure that definitely enabled the university to contribute to the war effort. Signing more than 45,000 diplomas of graduates of Butler, Hilton U. Brown, president of the board, is called the grand old man of the university. He has been a member of the group of distinguished citizens for 59 years and has attended all except two commencements since he was graduated from Butler in 1880. Largely responsible for the financial success of projects concerning Butler is John W. Atherton, secretary-treasurer of the board and son-in-law of Mr. Brown. Others serving as members of the board are William G. Irwin, Emsley W. Johnson, vice- president; Crate D. Bowen, Arthur V. Brown, Lee Burns, Earl Crawford, Edwin Errett, George A. Frantz, John L. H. Fuller, Glen R. Hillis, J. I. Holcomb, Hugh T. Miller, John F. Mitchell, Peter C. Reilly, W. A. Shullenberger, Mrs. Ralph M. Sponn, Evan Walker, and Kenneth K. Woolling. I r HILTON U. BROWN FK JOHN W. ATHERTON NIGHT SCHOOL An integral part of the academic program, the evening courses at Butler University are assuming an even more important role by offering instruction to those interested in speeding up wartime production and to others seeking ' o complete requirements for their degrees. The Division of Evening Courses is the outgrowth of a modest program which hod its beginning at the close of the last century. The courses were estab- lished in the autumn of 1899 through on arrange- ment entered into between the Indianapolis Board of School Commissioners and the Butler Administra- tion. In the effort to do its port in meeting the teacher shortage Butler is offering refresher courses for teachers who wish to re-enter the teaching field. Courses with special wartime emphasis include guidance in wartime problems, wartime citizenship training, background of the second World war, and many other timely subjects. Since 1931 the evening division has been under the direction of Prof. George F. Leonard. The teaching staff of the divison is composed of regular, members of the Butler faculty and business men, outstanding in their specific fields. PROF. GEORGE F. LEONARD COLLEGE DEAN GINO A. RATTI serves as the Dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, hie is also the head of the Romance Languages department. He holds his A.B. and A.M. degrees from the Middlesbury College and his Ph.D. from the University of Grenoble. He has been a member of the Butler faculty since 1920. The purpose of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences is to furnish a broad education in all the arts and sciences, to furnish a fundamental basis for the business of living. No where can one learn the scientific method of procedure in all thought as well as in the laboratory, following experiment after experiment, step by step. 20 OF LIBERAL ARTS Butler s College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, which was established at the birth of the university in 1855, is now training men and women to fit the needs of their country during World War II and to lead the future generations of this nation. With each college of Butler University having a general objective in view, the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences aims to provide a training of the mind that is of fundamental value in every walk of life and essential to the highest aspirations of mankind. Fundamental elements which ore considered in the training of Butler students enrolled in this college are an interpretation of human experience as found in language, literature, and the fine arts, a use of the scientific method of procedure in the acquisition of knowledge, exact and systematic thinking, moral and ethical evaluation of human activity, broad factual knowledge of the world, and an opportunity for creative effort. The College of Liberal Arts and Sciences was a part of Butler from its very beginning. Its depart- ments were expanded in 1 924 when three additional colleges were added. It is the combination of these four divisions that now make up Butler University. This college now boasts the largest enrollment among the four groups of students, although the College of Business Administration is not far behind and the College of Education, third. Under the guidance of Dean Gino A. Rotti, who has been a Butle ' faculty member smce 1920, the college has operated successfully. Although some of the college s faculty members hove entered the United States Armed forces as instructors or as fighting men, the remaining pro- fessors and those appointed by the university this year constitute a superior faculty. In addition to studies leading to the various degrees in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, many pre-professionol courses have been worked out in collaboration with professional schools of the state. Special curricula is offered leading to such professional courses as law, medicine, dentistry, nursing, dietetcis, forestry, medical technology, and engineering. This year such new courses as military psychology, the background of the second World War, naviga- tion, cultural anthropology, international radio code, and many others further increase the span of education that students are offered at Butler. Men students who are members of the Navy, Army, or Air Corps reserve units here receive the back- ground needed for future training. Degrees conferred by this college include the Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of Science, and Bachelor of Music after the completion by students of a four-year curriculum. The Master of Arts graduate degree and courses leading to the titles of Assoc- iate in Arts or in Science are also given. Row 1: Peeling, Journey, Silver, Fowler, Boumgartner, Rotti, Word, Renfrew, Wesenberg, Beeler. Row 2: Robbins, Friesner, Morrison, Miles, Burdin, Welling, Wesenberg, Maynard, Potzger, Burdette. Row 3: Aldrich, Elliot, Iske, Gelston, Moore, Josey, Dewey, Pearson. r r y « COLLEGE OF BUSINESS Since 1937 when the College of Business Ad- ministration was begun by Butler University, the officeofdean of the colleges was occupied. This year, however, the head of the college, Dean Maurice O. Ross, is doing double duty — holding the presidency of Butler in addition to directing the business of the college. The last division organized in the institution, the College of Business Administration provides train- ing in the methods, techniques, and principles of modern business and journalism, laying the founda- tion for careers in these fields. It sets forth the objective of equipping students with a knowledge and understanding of the changing and developing character of economic society and the responsibili- ties that ore laid upon educated men and women engaged in economic and journalistic activity. Because of its convenient location in a metropolis, the Coll ege of Business Administration provides close contact with various types of business and business organizations in actual operation and thus shows students a preview of the careers they have chosen. In planning its program of training, the college attempts to equip students with on understanding and evaluation of the modern economic and journalistic worlds, their organization and opera- tion; to inculcate an appreciation of the problems resulting from the application of these principles to the various phases of business enterprise. This college also attempts to afford on oppor- tunity to obtain a knowledge of additional social and physical sciences, literature, and languages through the selection of electives, and to impart a knowledge of a limited number of technical and fool courses such as accounting, statistics, secre- tarial training, copywriting, and editing. Because of its reputation in training of business students, many firms have requested that Butler men and women after graduation join their employee lists. This year with the demand for workers excep- tionally high, the college has had even more requests than it could fill. Part-time employment, especially in secretarial work, has been available to numerous students. Many students in the journalistic field are working on Indianapolis newspapers. The College of Business Administration also has made its contribution to the armed forces and to the war industries. Students have entered the services at the same time that professors were putting away brief coses and books to work directly for Uncle Sam or accepting employment in war work or with governmental agencies. Offered in the college are the undergraduate degrees of Bachelor of Science in Business Ad- ministration and the Bachelor of Science in Journal- ism, and the graduate degree of Master of Science in Business Administration. The college also offers courses applicable on the Bachelor of Arts degree in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. CAMP i. fi i ' . ADMINISTRATION DR. M. O. ROSS is not only the Dean of the College of Business Administration but is also the president of the university. He has been a member of the Butler faculty since 1938. Dr. Ross is a graduate of Kentucky Wesleyan University and obtained his A.M. and his Ph.D. degrees from the University of Chicago. The aim of the College of Business Administra- tion is to equip students with a knowledge of the fundamentals of business practices and the methods of making a living. Instruction in the secretarial sciences is one of the outstanding features of the college. This department fits students for office jobs with training in shorthand, typing, and mach- ine operation. 23 COLLEGE DEAN PHILLIP M. BAIL first came to the uni- versity in 1940. He has been Dean of the College of Education ' ever since he came to Butler. He holds his A.B. from Missouri Valley College and his A.M. and ' Ph.D. degrees from the state University of Iowa. The College of Education offers the student the opportunity to receive a teachers license in the state of Indiana. The student is given the experi- ence of actually teaching under supervisers in Indianapolis schools. , This year the Eliza Blaker memorial library was added to the college to be used for classes, study, and meetings of the college. 24 OF EDUCATION As the College of Education enters its thirteenth year on the campus, members of the college are honoring the first head of the Teachers ' College of Indianapolis where teachers were trained before the Butler education division began. A special room in Jordan hall has been dedi- cated to the late Mrs. Eliza A. Blaker, who was president of T. C. I. from its establishment in 1882 until her death in 1926. The Eliza Blaker Room will be used as a classroom, study room, and meeting place for various College of Education student and faculty events. It is equipped with reconditioned furnishings from the old college. In 1930 the College of Education was formed on the Butler campus when the Department of Educa- tion, instituted in 1919, and the Teachers College of Indianapolis were merged. It has been under the deanship of Dr. Phillip M. Bail since 1940. The general objective of the college is the educa- tion of teachers, supervisors, and administrators for positions in kindergartens, elementary schools, and high schools. Students preparing to teach are expected to gain a broad general education, training in the subjects to be taught, and special instruction in professional courses which point out and prepare the student to meet the problems of teaching successfully. The Butler College of Education is accredited by the American Association of Teachers Colleges. Student teachers have the advantage of using the public schools of Indianapolis as a teacher education laboratory. During their senior year the most capable students, judged on the basis of personality, scholarship, activities, and likelihood of becoming successful teachers, will be selected for a program of supervised practice teaching. With this program the opportunities of observation of elementary and secondary public school methods ore combined. Especially this year during the war emergency the field for teachers in both elementary and secondary schools is large. Upon graduation during the mid-year many students were placed in schools of Indianapolis and surrounding districts, and at the present time many vacancies still exist in the teaching occupation. To meet the need of teacher shortage the College of Education is offering now special refresher courses for those who intend once again to enter the teaching field. Such courses as improving instruction in social studies, improving instruction in the high school, wartime citizenship training, guidance problems in wartime, and problems in human geography are taught with special wartime emphasis. In February, 1943, the Butler College of Educa- tion was selected by the Director of Pre-Flight Aeronautics program of the Civil Aeronautics Administration to offer a preflight aeronautics course for secondary school teachers. The course was taught by rated C.A.A. instructors. 1: Davis, Hyde, Sparks, Bail, Reisser, Patterson, Richardson. 2: Floyd, Hedden, Carlile, Whisler, Leonard, Gorman, Mock. COLLEGE OF The most significant contribution of the College of Religion this year has been mode by more than 30 students and professors who hove entered the armed forces of the United Stales as chaplains. Among the men who will give religious guidance to our men are Ormonde Stonley Brown Orville Wright Luke Bolin Carl Ledbetter Arthur J. Lively William V. Barney, Jason M. Cowan Harold J. Elsom Luther C. Goebel Victor R. Griffin Robert W. Hanson Grover Lee Hordison Stewart W. Hortfelter Kenneth Hartmon Julian Linkous Charles R. Mull Henry Toogood William Weaver Hayes H. Webster Richard W. Moore William L. Richmond George Cartwright Leroy Logan and Clyde Wolf. Dr. William J. Moore former professor of semetics and New Testament also left the Butler faculty to enter the army as o chaplain. The Butler College of Religion with its beautiful new building is one of the largest ministerial training schools in the country, it trains graduate studenb from all ports of the country and also from other countries. The school hos been under the direction of Deon Frederick D. Kershner since 1924. In September 1925 the school of Religion officially became o port of Butler University and was located in Jordan Hall until lost year when it was moved to the new Georgian structure over- looking the canal. With primary objectives in view, the College of Religion aims to provide students with a compre- hension of techniques adequate for productive work in the fields of pastoral, evangelistic, educa- tional, and missionary ministry, plus vocations in social service. Its faculty has been so organized OS to provide expert guidance and stimulation for the development of scholars in the theological, historicol interpretative, linguistic, and scientific oreas of religion. Students in the College of Religion have the advantage of one of the most complete religious libraries in the country. Particular attention is directed to the collections in semetics and in the history of the Disciples of Christ. Eoch seminar room is equipped to focilitate research in the special field which may be selected during any given year. Degrees offered by the college ore the degree of Bochelor of Divinity and Moster of Theology. Master of Arts and a Master of Science with a major in religious education. Tentative orrange- ments to be mode effective in the near future, have been mode for the conferring of the degree of Doctor of Theology. With graduates majoring in religion being trained in the new school undergraduate students ore still located in Jordan Moll in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. Students who have completed four years work in the undergraduate division receive a Bachelor of Arts Degree. Row 1: Waiker, Calvert, Holmes. Row 2: NDiidri, Hanlin, Cory, Griffeth, Berry. RELIGION DEAN FREDERICK D. KERSHNER of the College of Religion hos been at Butler since 1924. He obtained his B. Litt. degree from Transylvania University, his A.M. from Princeton University, and was av orded the honorary degree of LL.D. at Bethany College ond ot Transylvania University. An outstanding feature of the College of Religion is the doily chapel service conducted in the new College of Religion chapel. Ones each month these services are conducted by the Student Ministerial Association. The picture shows Dean Hill, president of the Association, conducting a service. 27 ADA BICKING Director JORDAN STUDENTS are in demand for all phases of military service because of tfieir sensi- tivity to sound, tfieir ear training and precision of finger and fiand control. They have qualified as officers, radio and communications technicians, bombardiers, aerial photographers, chaplain assist- ants, warrant and other special service officers, chorus, band and recreational organizers. JOR- DAN GRADUATES are filling prominent places OS civic leaders, concert artists and faculty members and supervisors in schools and colleges.

There exists a mutual exchange of students sharing in an affiliation of the two schools. Since the Herron School is a professional one, its students specialize in the arts of sculpture and painting, commercial art, and teachers training courses. The members of Art School s teaching staff are practicing artists and the school building is unequalled among art schools for its beauty and suitability to art school work. Graduates of the Herron hove won such outstanding prizes OS the Prix de Rome and the Paris Choloner Fellowship, and ore to be found in outstanding positions throughout the state and nation.

On Leave of Absence , . • Senior Class Hardy Seniors graduating from college in a time of war have more than the usual sense of responsibility as they realize that it is their duty to do something — to preserve the world they have known and to prepare for an era of reconstruction in which they must be leaders. They realize that most of their classmates have donned uniforms and gone into the service of their country. The men who are fortunate enough to complete their four year course know that the same fate awaits them, and for the first time, the women, too, may be called upon to really serve Uncle Sam. Although the seniors face an indefinite future, they may still retain the treasured memories and valued friendships formed throughout the four years of college life. And also, they will have the book knowledge they have absorbed, the experiences, and a better knowledge of how to get along with other people resulting from college experiences. The class of 43 has lived up to the standards of previous classes and has set a worthy example for the classes to follow. It has seen that the time honored traditions hove been upheld — from the wearing of senior cords to the preserving of senior walk. A more serious undercurrent has been present in the members of the class of 43 than has been seen in former years. While it has engaged in the normal amount of parties, dances, honor day, commencement, and the like, the minds of its members have been concerned with world problems. A world at war is a new experience for most of us. Many have been called upon to give a higher pledge of allegiance than to school spirit. Those who have remained have been occupied with training themselves for the armed forces, or donating their time to the USO, first aid, the Red Cross and other types of civilian defense. As they prepare to leave the sheltered life they hove been leading as members of a closely knit institution, watched over by parents, friends, and teachers, seniors cannot help but wonder what the world has in store for them. May the knowledge that they have gained throughout four years of college life stand them in good stead as they meet the problems of the world. Class officers who were elected early in the year are: William Mortimer, president; Leslie Shippey, vice-president; Barbara Fuller, secretary, and William Hardy, treasurer. 32 ALBOHER, JACK M.

Commerce Club Junior Class Dorothy Herman Tyke Manifold The first year when one can feel that sense of being an upperclassman, the year when one no longer feels downtrodden, when he feels as if he is at last coming into his own and taking his place as one of the higher-ups of Butler society — these are the new sentiments of the junior class. But in 1943 the juniors may not feel so elated and all important as have their predecessors, A nation at war has made them realize that there are things more important than proms, class elections, queenships, dances and parties. They ore being schooled to accept more easily the responsibilities of men and women — the responsibil- ities of leaders in preserving democracy, responsibilities as organizers m the era of reconstruction in the years that are to come. And as college men and women the class of ' 43 realizes that they must prepare to become such leaders — that the salvation of the good old U. S. A. depends on their abilities and training, and upon that of thousands of students like them through- out the country. Many of the class of ' 43 have already been called on to exchange their traditional college wardrobe of dirty cords and sweaters for a complete new outfit, purchased by Uncle Sam. In the next year more and more will be called to the service of their country, but the men of 43 have been taught that it is their duty, and they are willing to accept it willingly. And the coeds, too, are willing to do their best in the all out war effort — from morale building, defense work, to working for the Red Cross. But even with a war in progress the class of 43 carried on its traditional activities. The Junior Prom was held April 16. Les Dold, prom chairman, proved himself to be a capable leader and organizer. And as its major activity the class sponsored the publication of the school yearbook, the Drift, with Joe Kettery serving as editor and business manager. Other class officers elected early in the year in addition to the prom chairman are: Robert Knowles, who served as president before leaving for medical school; Dorothy hierman, vice-president; Jackie Blomberg, secretary; and Lothair (Tyke) Manifold, treasurer. Tyke was called early in the second semester to the Army Air Corps. ADJIEFF, BORIS G. Indianapolis Accounting Phi Delta Theta Basketball AUGUSTIN CHARLES Indianapolis Accounting Sigma Chi Y.M.C.A.

Commerce Club ZAINEY, JOSEPH E Indianapolis Journalism Sigma Delta Chi Collegian Commerce Club Newman Club Sophomore Class George Vosburgh Joan Cox Beth Henderson Roy Bagley Tfiey do not bear the wrinkled brows of scholars but they have started to assimilate some of the knowledge Butler has to offer. Too young to be wise, and too old to be naive, they are just inbetweens — the sophomore class. They will come into their own the next year and the next. Then they may find their names no longer in small type but in the Collegian headlines. During their first year at Butler, America entered the war. Some of this class will stay to carry on Butler traditions. Many of the boys will leave for the armed services and perhaps will return to Butler after the war. To the pulsating rhythm of hial Hampton s ten piece orchestra an estimated 450 students danced around the dance floor of the Spink Arms Hotel. The navy uniforms of fifty sailors from the signal school at the field house added color to the throng. The affair — the Sophomore Cotillion — an informal dance presented by the soph- omore class, Feb. 6. Guy Porcaro as dance chairman was the key-man managing the Cotillion. Joyce Prenderqast filled the post of promotion manager. Other practical promoters were Mildred Failey, Betty Lee Snyder, Winnie Lee Sellick, Mory Lou Marshall, Nancy Hill, Beth Henderson, Roberta Morse, Gwendolyn Brock, Jeanne Goss, Robert Parr, Harold Burr, James Schloot — the members of the ticket committee. Gretchen Edwards, choice of the sophomore men, was chosen as the Sweetheart of the class. She was escorted by a court of Joan Williams, Elizabeth Parker, Joyce Predergast, Barbara Peacock, Martha Lou Brown, Maryellen Hanley, and Suzanne VanTalge. Queen Gretchen was awarded a gleaming loving cup and a bracelet of fraternity crests. Acting as chaperons were Dr. and Mrs. James H. Peeling, Prof, and Mrs. L. Gray Burdin, Dr. and Mrs. Roy M. Robbins, and Prof, and Mrs. Charles J. Anthony. Beneath drizzling gray skies the sophomore class under the leadership of fight captain, John McCord, was caught off guard by members of the freshman class. The sophomores met defeat at the hands of the Rhinies when the first year men succeeded in grasping the white flag from the top of the greased pole. As in a typical Joe Louis fight, all was over before anyone knew it and the frosh busied themselves with shredding their pots . The fight participants collected more grime than usual including the mud from the soggy ground. George Vosburgh as president ruled the roost well. Next in line was Joan Cox, vice-president. Ray Bagley handled funds. The secretary s note book was kept by Beth Henderson. ALDENDORF, THYRA M.

WALLACE Freshman Class Gordon Tanner Ruth Mane Ralph Shirley Peobody Hampered by wartime restrictions the first class to enter Butler during World War II continued to show spirit and initiative by upholding many of Butler s traditions. Vanquishing the second year men in their annual fracas was the first achievement chalked up to the honor of the rhinies. Led by fight captain hierb Eaton, the frosh were able to grab the flog from the top of the greased pole in less than three minutes, setting a new record in the history of the traditional squabble. This was the first time in four years that the frosh were able to overpower their long standing rivals. The result — the burning of the green and yellow pots worn so many months by the oppressed first year men. The freshmen sponsored the Freshman Rose Dance in the Riley Room at the Claypool Hotel during the first semester. Janet Mitchell was crowned queen of the dance by tiriy Pete Davis, class president. Members of the queen s court were Phyllis Hornbeck, Kay Ferguson, Marilyn Richards, Judy Badger, Marilyn Poer, and Joan Mawson. Queen Janet was presented with a bouquet of roses and o large trophy. Dick Pierce and his Indiana orchestra furnished the music for the dancing and critics claim the dance was one of the years best. Kyle Maroney acted as chairman for the affair. The future holds little promise of the cheerful for members of the class of 46. Its ranks have already been greatly depleted as the rhinies have marched off to join upperclassmen as equals in the ranks of Uncle Sam. But whether at Butler or on the battlefield the energetic freshies will be able to hold their own. They will always be remembered as one of the most original and ambitious classes to enter the halls of Jordan. Bernard Pete Davis, half-pint president of the class ruled his subjects capably until he was drafted during the second semester. He was assisted by Shirley Pea- body, vice-president; Ruth Marie Ralph, secretary and Gordon Tanner, treasurer. The class of 46 is one of which Butler may well be proud — their spunk and spirit carried them through the first year of adjustment as college students — those who remain have made a notable start toward being good upperclassmen.

X iws ' ' V jp-itofe ' 1 ATHLETIC STAFF The bad luck which plagued Butler s coaching staff last year was still in evidence this season. Last year Coach Paul D. (Tony) hIinUe lost both his trainer, Jim Morris, and his line coach, Jim Hauss, to the army. And then Butler lost Tony. Hink left Fairview March 5, 1942, headed for the Great Lakes Naval Training station, where he later compiled brilliant records as head coach of the sailor football and basketball teams. Although Hinkle s record at Great Lakes gave him true national recognition, Tony has promised to return to Butler as soon as the wars over, and Butler officials did not wish to give his position to an outsider. ' Therefore they selected Hugh Wally Middles- worth, who for several years had been Hinkle s right-hand man and backfield coach. But Wally s term was short-lived, for before he even got around to issuing a call for fall practice Uncle Sam issued a call for him, and Wally ended up in the Army air corps, also for the duration. The faculty athletic committee then offered the position to Frank (Pop ) Hedden, who had compiled a brilliant record as freshman football and basket- ball mentor for nine years. Hedden s appointment left no vacancy in the first-year department, as the Indiana Intercollegiate Conference had declared freshman eligible for varsity sports. This ruling was made necessary by the fact that nearly all colleges had suffered heavy losses of athletes through the selective service act. Butler freshmen, therefore, went through their doily dozens with the varsity, and several of them soon won their spurs under fire in the varsity trenches. To assist Hedden the faculty athletic committee brought Walter Floyd from Southport High School, where he had produced outstanding teams for several years. Floyd, however, was no outsider at Butler. He had received his college gridiron tutoring under Pot Page, former Bulldog grid mentor, and had learned his basketball under the great Hinkle, in 1931, 32, and 33. Hedden and Floyd were aided in no small way by Harold Mossey, student assistant and former Bulldog gridmon, who spent many long hours each week drilling the Bulldog backfield in the funda- mentals of speed and deception. Although an injury sustained early in his sophomore year forced Harold from active service with the Bulldogs, he was of great value to them in his assistant-coaching capacity. Also of unmeasured value to the Bulldogs was Dean Moore, student trainer, who replaced the drafted Jim Morris last year. Dean s quiet, mature manners soon won him the confidence of all Bulldog athletes, and wherever the Bulldogs went, he went, bandaging wounds, dressing wounds, and rubbing tired muscles. Still the brightest light on the Butler horizon, how- ever, is the return of Tony Hinkle at the war s end. FOOTBALL 1942 XAVIER 21 BUTLER 14 After a deluge of passes fiad produced five toucfidowns during a slam-bang first tiolf, a deluge of rain reduced tfie second period of tfiis gome to a mere three-piays-and-a-punt routine, and tfie Bulldogs lost their first 1942 gridiron debate without benefit of a rebuttal. The fans were on their feet almost entirely throughout the first half, with the musketeers scoring first on a long march from their own 35 yard line, ending in a touchdown on a jaunt by Chet Mutryn, speedy veteran halfback, from the Bulldog 17. The Bulldogs tied the score almost immediately, however, recovering a fumble on the Xavier 32 yard marker and marching straight to a score, Sleet driving into pay dirt from the two-yard stripe. Again, however, the visitors moved ahead, uncorking a brilliant 80-yard touchdown ploy on a combination pass and lateral. Still undaunted, the Bulldogs tied the score a second time, blocking a punt on the Xavier 17 yard line, from where Williams passed to Miller in the end zone. A third time, however, the Musketeers forged into the lead, this time on one of the freakiest ploys ever seen in the bowl. On fourth down, with six yards to go to a first down on the Butler two, Mutryn flipped a pass which was caught by Ted Thomo, a tackle, after bouncing off two would-be receivers. Thomo fell across the goal line with what proved to be the winning tally. INDIANA 53 BUTLER Indiana scheduled this game for a tuneup and that s just what they got. From the moment All- American Billy Hillenbrand, the Evansville Express, ran back Butler s first punt sixty yards to a touch- down until the final gun it was strickly a rout. The score, which was the largest ever seen in Memorial Stadium at Bloomington, might have been larger, but for the fact that Coach Alvin (Bo) McMillen used his reserves profusely after the first quarter, keeping his first-string performers under wraps and out of view of opposing talent scouts. Coach Hedden, however, had to start several of his reserves, as a major portion of the first-string players were on the injury list, following their bruising battle against Xavier the week before. The Bulldogs point with pride, however, to the fact that, although held together only by adhesive tape and an exceptionally large amount of spirit, they played their best ball during the lost quarter. At gome s end. Coach McMillen visited the Bulldog dressing room, congratulated Hedden on having a team that wouldn t give up. The Bulldog s only consolation in taking the thorough trouncing at the hands of the Indiana boys was the fact that they became a party to the stadium record, the claim to which they later re- linquished to Fort Knox by a score of 57-0.

For what was left of the Bull- dog team after that Indiana massacre was ground into the turf at Champaign, III., as the lilini rolled up the biggest score ever seen on their home field. It marked the second consecutive week that the Bulldogs had been the victims of such a scoring record. Never outfought, but clearly outclassed in every department of the gome, the Bulldogs yielded 39 points during the first half, but came back to hold the mighty lilini to a single score in the third quarter. After the hard-fought gome, Illinois Coach Paul Ellicott visited the Butler dressing room, told Hedden that he admired the spirit he had instilled in his boys, said the Bulldogs third quarter exhibition was one of the finest of sheer nerve he hod ever seen. The Bulldogs, meanwhile, agreed that, despite their beating, they enjoyed playing the lilini, and that they considered it one of their most thrilling experi- ences. OHIO UNIVERSITY 6 BUTLER Butler hod the breaks this time, but the Bobcats had the power, and the Ohioans won a well- deserved victory on their home field at Athens, O., a victory which was considerably more decisive than the score. After having a first-quarter touchdown called back and o second-period drive to the two-yard line halted by a penalty, the enraged Bobcats DEAN MOORE Trainer ? r. m unleashed a smashing 66-yard drive in the third stanza for their gome-winning score. Big John Fekete, one of the midwest s outstanding backs, climaxed the drive, barrelling his way through from the Butler one-foot line. Although the Bulldog offense came to life twice in the second half it never got inside the Ohio ten-yard line. Best offensive drive was launched by two freshmen. Halfback Gordon Tanner and Fullback Francis Moriorty, but Moriarty sustained a rib injury late in the fray and the drive bogged down. Chief reason for the defeat was that Butler s two best ball carriers. Babe Dimancheff and Billy Howard, were still on the sidelines, nursing pre- season injuries. Had they been in the lineup it might well hove been a different story. WABASH 6 BUTLER With the Cavemen playing as they had never played before and the Bulldogs playing as though they had never played before, this game produced one of the Indiana Intercollegiate Conference s major 1942 gridiron upsets. But the Wabash victory was no fluke. Once the Cavemen reached Butlers 14-yard line and were stopped. A second time they marched to our 1 5 and were stopped. But the third time was a charm, for the Cavemen marched to the Butler 3-yard line, from where little Dick Neibur drove into touchdown territory. Such offensive gestures as the Bulldogs managed to get under way were halted either by fumbles pass interceptions, or poor signal calling, an, example of which was a pass on second down with six inches remaining to a first down in midfield. WESTERN MICHIGAN 13 BUTLER 7 Dame Fortune really jilted the Bulldogs this time. Coach Hedden ' s charges, stinging from five straight defeats, pushed the surprised Broncs all over the field at Kalamazoo, Mich., but lost because Western Michigan ' s only two pass completions in ten attempts went for touchdowns. The Bulldogs rolled up eight first downs to four for the Broncs, and piled up 1 58 yards by rushing, while holding their opponents to a mere 92. Yet they did not win the victory they so well deserved. Coach Hedden ' s proteges scored first, Billy Howard skirting end from the four-yard line early in the second quarter, after a Butler drive had been stopped on the two-yard marker in the first stanza, hloward scored on the first play after he had been injected into the game to put new life into a Butler offense which apparently had fallen dead within sight of a touchdown. Shortly afterword, however, the Broncs un- corked a touchdown pass from the Butler 39 to tie the score. The hosts then kicked off and Butler failed to gain, with McCalip punting out on the Bronc 27. On the next play the Kalamazoo boys uncorked their coupe de grace, a 73-yard touch- down pass, which put them into the lead they never relinquished. ii -llllf Ml I ■mM m HOWARD DIMANCHEFF CAPT. GILSON MILLER, H. WILLIAMS, N. SLEET BUTLER 39 DEPAUW With our star halfback combination of Billy hHoward and Babe Dimancheff back together again for the first time during the season — after both had been shelved by pre-season injuries — the Bulldogs finally hit the gridiron jackpot, rolling to a one-sided victory over a DePauw team which later beat Wabash, who had handed the Bulldogs on upset defeat earlier in the season. Although the Babe didn ' t figure in the scoring — his lone touchdown being nulli- fied by a penalty — he played a major role in the Butler offense all the way, and his presence on the field seemed to give the Bulldogs the spark they had missed so much in losing their first six consecutive tilts. Although the Bulldogs were held to single touchdowns in each of the first two periods, they unleashed a three-touchdown barrage in the third session and added another in the final chapter for good measure. Butler scorers were Howard, Sleet, and Williams, each of whom scored two touchdowns. The tigers were held at bay throughout the battle and never got within twenty yards of the blue and white goal. The victory, which was won before a large homecoming day crowd in the Fair- view bowl, snapped the Bulldog ' s six-gome losing streak, the longest in more than twenty years. 74 BUTLER 12 TOLEDO Proving that their 39-0 victory over the DePauw Tigers a week earlier was no fluke, the Bulldogs had little trouble vanquishing a highly-reputed Toledo gridiron machine before several thousand fans in the Fairview bowl. The victory bore out also the contention, established a week earlier, that the Bulldog record might have been much different had the halfback combination of Billy Howard and Babe Dimancheff been together throughout the season. Although the Babe did not break into scoring — his only touchdown being nulli- fied by a penalty, as was the case in the DePauw game — he was again the spark- plug of the Butler offense which seemed to have suddenly come into the form dis- played by the unbeaten Bulldogs of 1939. The 12-0 score was no fair indication of the difference between the two teams. The Bulldogs hod a far greater proportional average in first downs and yards gained and controlled play throughout. The first Butler score came midway in the second quarter, Williams passing to Howard, who raced thirty-five yards to a touchdown. In the third period Bob McCalip climaxed a sixty-yard march by carrying the ball and two would-be tacklers over the goal line from the three-yard line. GEIMAN BRODEN MANIFOLD MASCHMEYER CAPT. ELECT POHER HORVATH ST. JOE 6 BUTLER Coach Joe Dienhort brought his unbeaten Pumas to town and proved to all concerned that lightening can strick twice in the same place. For the Pumas, who handed the Bulldogs a stunning upset on the same field a season earlier, did it again this time, in convincing fashion. Last season the Butler-St. Joe tilt opened the Bulldog ' s season. This year the same battle marked the close of the Bulldog ' s season, one of the most disastrous in Fairview history. The game also saw the Butler offense, which had rolled almost at will over the Bulldog ' s last two opponents, held almost completely in check by an alert Puma defense. The only real threat fell short on the Puma four-yard line late in the final stanza, the visitors promp tly punting out of danger. The Pumas drove to the Bulldog two-yard line early in the fray, but were stopped by an alert Butler defense. After a scoreless first half, the visitors came back with renewed vigor in the third quarter. George Ellsperman, speedy halfback, got away for a 70-yard run to the Butler five-yard stripe, from where he scored two plays later, giving the visitors their victory margin. The Drift, like any yearbook, is expected to paint as bright a picture as possible of the school football team and its record. It is expected to describe the team s victories in glowing terms and to make eloquent excuses for the defeats it suffered. This year s Butler University football team lost all but two of nine gomes. Or, as some yearbooks would say it, we won all but seven of nine games. Whatever the case, a record of two victories and seven defeats is nothing to write home about, and it would seem rather impossible to point a very bright picture of that. However, that is just what we intend to do, not because it is expected of us but because we really believe it. Let us present our cose. We opened our season by losing a 21-14 decision to Xovier University of Cincinnati. We lost that game by one touchdown, and not a sports writer who covered that game could deny that that was the freakiest touchdown ever seen in The Butler bowl. It was a pass which bounced off two eligible receivers into the hands of an Xovier tackle in the end zone. Then we played two Big Ten teams — Indiana and Illinois — whom we hod no business scheduling in the first place. Indiana beat us 53-0 and the lllini poured it on to the tune of 67-0. There is no question that we would have lost both of these games decisively no matter what condition we were in, but the scores certainly wouldn t have been so one-sided hod we been able to start our first string backfield and had not several of our linemen been on the injury list. Next we lost, 6-0, to Ohio University, end (he fact that we held the powerful Bobcats to a lone touchdown, after the physical pummelling sustained in the post two engagements, spoke well for the spirit and courage of the team. Then we did really play a mediocre game, losing to the Wabash Cavemen, 6-0, at Crowfordsville. There was no excuse for this, it was very poor foot- boll. But the following week we pushed the Western Michigan Broncos all over the field at Kalamazoo, Mich., and lost because the only two Bronc pass completions in ten attempts went for long range touchdowns. This was our third one-touchdown defeat and our fourth in six starts. Finally, with our halfback combination of Dimancheff and Howard back in circulation, the Bulldogs romped over the DePauw Tigers, 39-0, in impressive fashion, and looked equally impres- sive in trouncing the Toledo University Rockets by a 12-0 count the following week. And then, in our season finale, we lost a 6-0 decision to the undefeated Pumas from St. Joe. Summing it up, we lost hve games by one- touchdown margins, and two games by over- whelming margins to teams which were completely out of our class. Statistically speaking, not including the two Big Ten massacres, we scored 72 points to our opponents 52, although we lost five of the seven games involved. How easily the record could hove been entirely different. The boys worked well under Coaches Hedden, Floyd and Mossey. Although everyone on the team knew there was a very natural pressure on the new coaching corps, there was never any tension in camp. The boys were out to ploy football and to ploy it the best they knew how. Because they did just that, they were, in many respects, one of the finest Butler teams ever. 77 Butlers 1942-43 basketball team compiled one of the poorest records in the school s history, gave up more points than any other Butler team ever had, ran up one of the school s longest losing streaks. By all the rules it was a very poor season. And yet, the Bulldogs gained more public favor and won more admirers this season than ever before, even in their finest seasons. The Indianapolis News referred to their season as perhaps the best illustra- tion of the intense desire for the continuation of collegiate sports in the United States . For the Bulldogs hod to overcome seemingly insurmountable odds even to have a team. They had lost their coach, Tony Hinkle, to the navy, and likewise had lost their familiar fieldhouse court for practice sessions and for their home games. They had to go six miles to practice in a small. poorly-equipped gymnasium near the center of town, and they had to go by street cor because gasoline and tires were rationed. They had no home floor and played their home games at a local high school gymnasium. They had to travel to their road gomes by regular passenger bus, sometimes standing all the way, because the government had forbidden the use of special busses. But they thought Butler should be represented by a team, so they had a team, despite all obstacles. And so their record of nine defeats and only three victories wasn t particularly important. What they won they won the hard way, and what they lost they lost fighting all the way, against odds far greater than anyone could see on the playing floor. MANIFOLD MASCHMFYER BASKETBALL 1943 BALL STATE 45 BUTLER 43 Once again fading in the stretch, the Bulldogs dropped a 45-43 decision to the Ball State Card- inals, after holding a 24-1 5 halftime margin. The Cards, who had never before beaten Butler on the hardwood, were trailing, 13-4, when Coach Pete Phillip called out the reserves, and from there on it was all Boll State. The Cards overtook the Bulldogs at 37-36 and moved ahead, 43-38, and then staved off a weak Butler rally to gain their victory. Paul Weaver led the Butler scoring with seven points. BUTLER 42 FRANKLIN 35 Starting their season on a bright note, the Bull- dogs impressed a large crowd of first-nighters at the Tech gym with a decisive and well-earned 42-34 victory over a classy but outclassed bond of Franklin College Grizzlies. With Harold Miller and Paul Weaver showing the way the Bulldogs took over a 27-13 halftime lead, holding the visitors to two field goals during the first session. The Grizzlies, who had stayed in the gome by virtue of some accurate free throw firing, gained throughout the second half, but never could catch the tiring Bulldogs. Butler hit 16 of 73 shots from the field with the Grizzlies connecting of 1 2 of 68. Harold Miller led the scoring with 12 points. PURDUE 44 BUTLER 35 Butler ' s lock of training facilities began to tell on the Bulldogs ogainst Purdue as the Boilermakers ran them ragged during the second half to win by a nine-point margin, after trailing, 23-18 at the intermission. The Bulldogs, not used to the long Purdue floor, were never outclassed by their hosts at Lafayette, but could not keep up the pace in the final stages of the game. The Boilermakers, capitalizing on their superior condition, scored 21 points of the last 24 to hand the Fairview Flyers their first 1942-43 loss. GREAT LAKES 59 BUTLER 34 Lieut. Paul D. (Tony) Hinkle brought his Great Lakes quintet to Indianapolis and won this one under wraps. Although the game-but-outclassed Bulldogs made a fight of it for ten minutes, trailing midway in the first half, 8-7, the Sailors turned on the heat to drive into a 22-10 intermission lead. The tiring Bulldogs were no match for their court- wise opponents throughout the second stanza, and the issue was never in doubt. The Sailors hit 25 of 75 basket attempts, while the Bulldogs connected on 1 2 of 50. Glenn Miller led the Butler cause with 14 points and Weaver followed with 12. INDIANA 42 BUTLER 27 Coach Branch McCracken s Indiana University cogers, who later went on to cop second place in the Big Ten net race, hod little trouble handing the Bulldogs a decisive lacing at the Tech gym. The gome followed the usual pattern for the Bulldogs, being played on even terms for the first several minutes, with the Hoosiers pulling away into a safe halftime lead. The Hoosiers found the Bulldogs tenacious, and held only a 1 3-1 1 lead after twelve minutes of ploy. However, scoring 1 2 of the last 1 3 points in the hrst half, they took over a comfortable 25-1 2 intermission margin. The Bulldogs, expected to fade even more in the stretch, hung on gamely throughout the tiring second stanza, and the Hustiin Hoosiers managed to extend their margin by only two more points. The winners connected 1 7 of 82 field goal at- tempts, while the hapless Bulldogs had to content themselves with nine in 84 tries. Indiana hit eight of 1 2 free throws and the Bulldogs nine of 20. Glenn Miller led the losers scoring with seven points, but Indiana s sophomore Ward Williams rang up eleven. 79 WABASH 61 BUTLER 34 Riding the crest of a six-game winning streak — during which they never scored fewer than 50 points — the Cavemen of Wabash handed the Bull- dogs one of their most stinging defeats at the Crawfordsville arena by a 61-34 count. The Cavemen, who went on to win the Indiana Intercollegiate Conference race, let the Bulldogs set the pace for the first ten minutes, trailing 17-14 at that time, but from there on the game was strictly a rout. The Cavemen drove into a 28-23 halftime lead and pulled away throughout the second canto. Leading scorer for the Cavemen Bob Gage, shifty guard, who garnered 20 markers. Paul Weaver led the loser s scoring with 1 5 points. NOTRE DAME 45 BUTLER 34 The eleven-point difference in the score is no indication of the closeness of this game, which was one of the most exciting and hard fought of the season. For with only seven minutes to play the Bulldogs led by a score of 32-28, and but for the performance of a Notre Dame substitute named Francis Curran, it might have been a different story. Curran entered the contest with seven minutes to play and scored seven points in the brilliant last ditch Irish rally, in which the visitors scored 17 of the last 1 9 points. The winners led, 21 -1 7, at half- time. Glenn Miller led the Bulldogs with eleven points. DEPAUW 43 BUTLER 30 Scoring as many points as they ever had piled up against a Butler team, the DePauw Tigers handed the Bulldogs their seventh consecutive defeat, by a score of 43-30, on the Tech floor. Led by Don Jones, lanky center, who tallied 21 points, the Tigers took over an early 1 5-5 lead and coasted into a 22-10 halftime advantage. A determined Butler rally narrowed the gap to 33-27 midway in the second half, but the visitors turned on the pressure to win going away. The Tigers hit 1 8 of 65 field goal attempts, compared to 10 in 69 tries for the Bulldogs. Only one Butler man, Harold Miller, scored more than one field goal. nm BUTLER 34 FRANKLIN 24 Defeated seven consecutive times since opening their season by defeating Franklin, the Bulldogs again vanquished the Grizzlies on the latter s hard- wood by a score of 34-24. The victory was especi- ally sweet, because the Bulldogs, who had estab- lished a reputation for fading in the stretch, won going away. They took over an 1 8-1 halftime lead, weather- ed a Grizzly rally which narrowed the margin to one basket, and won in a driving finish. Captain Fred FHunckler, playing one of his finest games, led the Bulldog scoring with eight points, but had to share the spotlight with Franklin s Paul Hendrix, who chalked up 1 4 markers. BUTLER 33 DEPAUW 30 The DePauw Tigers, who hod turned in o 43-30 victory over Butler earlier in the season, were no match for the improved Bulldogs this time, and fell before a relentless attack, 33-30. The Tiger offense, which had racked up 89 points its lost time out, couldn t produce a field goal against the Bulldogs until twelve minutes of the game hod elapsed, as the Bulldogs took over an early 14-4 lead and went to their dressing room at halftime with a 17-14 margin. The two teams were never more than four points apart throughout a torrid second half, and the game was one of the bitterest ever seen between the traditional rivals. Glenn Miller led the Butler scoring with nine points, but DePauw s Dan Guinnup took scoring honors with a total of 12 markers. WABASH 36 BUTLER 31 Although outscoring their rivals from the field 13 to 11, the Bulldogs lost a bitter duel on the Tech floor by a count of 36-31, in a game which proved that it pays to remain calm and collected. For the Cavemen remained calm and collected fourteen points in sixteen shots from the foul circle to gain their margin of victory in a hotly-contested battle. The two teams fought on even terms throughout the first half, with the score deadlocked, 19-19, at intermission time. The pace remained even until midway in the second stanza, when the Fairview Flyers, trailing by one basket, resorted to rough tactics to gain possession of the ball. The Cave- men capitalized on Butler fouls to stretch the margin to five points and put the game on ice. The winners collected six of their lost ten points from the hand- out department. 81 BASEBALL At this writing there is still more than a week before the season opens against DePauw, but a pre-season look at the team indicates that the Bulldogs will have plenty of power at the plate, a good pitching staff, very good outfield, and fair infield. Mainstays of the pitching staff are hiarold Miller and Norman (Gobby) Williams, both of whom are also first-class fly-chasers and dangerous hitters. Captain Fred hlunckler is the number one catcher, and his capable understudy is Ted Witte. Jack Demlow has first claim to first base, with Jim Mitchell and Don Murray battling it out for the keystone sack. Joe Guennel, who played third base last year, has been transplanted to shortstop, with Dick McMullen the most logical contender for the hot corner this season. Outstanding outfielders include Tom Sleet and Francis Moriarity, along with Williams and Miller. They are supported by Murray, who alternates between outfield and the infield. The ancient adage that time will tell seems particularly applicable here, but at this writing it seems safe to predict that Butler s 1943 baseball team will be at least better than average. With veteran material at almost every post, and a great amount of esprit de corps prevailing, the Bulldogs look ahead to an abbreviated eight-game schedule with the highest of hopes. The Bulldogs ploy two games with DePouw, Earlham and St. Joseph, in addition to lone tilts with Wabash and Purdue. The abbreviated schedule leaves much to be desired, but war conditions have made it inadvis- able to schedule more than eight games. Coach Walter Floyd has made arrangements with all teams scheduled whereby any gome may be cancelled on twenty-four hours notice, realizing that the team will fall apart the moment the army and navy reserve members at Butler are called to service. TRACK At this writing our indoor track team has entered one meet — the new Purdue relays — and failed to score a point, and it appears that a once-powerful Butler track empire is crumbling. This, however, is not due entirely to lack of talented performers, but rather to the fact that Coach Ray Sears is in the Marines and the Bulldogs home track behind the fieldhouse has been taken over by the navy. Coach Sears, formerly one of the nation s greatest distance runners and one of the finest coaches in the midwest, has received a com- mission in the Marine Corps, and his absence here has been felt in many ways, both by the team and by his many student and faculty friends. Still in the limelight, however, is one of Sears proteges. Earl Mitchell, who has established him- self OS one of the nation s outstanding mile runners. Mitchell ran at Butler a year before transferring to Indiana University at Bloomington. Although no definite schedule has been arranged for the Bulldogs this year, it is certain that they will participate in the Big State and Little State meets as they always hove in post years. Probably the outstanding man on the squad is Paul Wagner, Little State cross country champion, who runs the distances and takes part in some relay events. Other distance runners are Ralph Plummer, Joe Liekhim, Richard Clark, Walker Kemper, Bill Watts and Bob Barnes. Urban Simonton composes the one-man hurdle and dash department. In the weight divisions Bob Merchant and Bob Rodgers, two gridiron muscle men, hold the fort. It is a safe prediction at this writing that this year s team will not hang up an impressive record, but it would not be just to overlook the fact that no team in Butler history has had to overcome the difficulties encountered by this year s aggregation. NTRAMURALS In intramural sports as in oil other activities on the Butler University campus this year the war has failed to cause any despair. Many of the men who would have taken part in the intramurol program were called into the service, however, the response of the student body and the participating organizations has been gratifying. This year, Ray Sears, track coach, was placed in charge of the intramural program. Competitive events held during the year were: MAJOR MINOR Football Swimming Basketball Bowling Softball Track A trophy was awarded to the winner of each event and the members of the winning teams were presented with individual medals to signify their victory. The organization having the most com- petitive points at the end of the year was given a trophy. In major sports the winner receives ten points, second place, six points, and third place, two points. In minor events the percentage is five, three, one. Throughout the year the outsta nding feature of the intramural program was the constant battle between Phi Delta Theta and the Crew for first place in all events. At this writing they hove split every available athletic event. At the end of the football season the Phi Delts and the Crew were tied for first place, each having five victories, the Phi Delt — Crew game resulted in a tie. In the final play-off Phi Delta Theta, crippled by injuries, was defeated 7-6 by the Crew. On the Collegian all-star intramural touch football first team, selected by the sports staff. Phi Delta Theta, Crew, and Sigma Nu each boasted four players. Sigma Chi placed two on the first team, while Lambda Chi Alpha and Delta Tau Delta each hod one. Placing five men in the first 12 finishers, Phi Delta Theta won the second annual cross-country run. The Phi Delta Theta total was 30, Delta Tou Delta was second with 58, and Crew and Sigma Nu tied for third place with 73 points each. James Billheimer of Delta Tau Delta received individual honors by running the gruelling one and one-quarter mile in 5 minutes and 42 seconds. John Kirkhoff of Phi Delta Theta took second place. Due to the occupancy of the fieldhouse by the Navy Signal School the intramural basketball tourneys were staged at the Riviera gymnasium this season. The basketball events were slow in getting started but under the able guidance of Ben Sprinkle and Ted Witte, a very successful season was completed. The delay was mainly caused by the lack of a place to play. Once under way the Fairview campus sow all eight cage squads join in the seven week chase for the intra- mural crown. Again, as in football, Phi Delta Theta and the Crew shared the spotlight, both teams having swept aside every opponent. In the fight game the Crew overcame an 8-0 lead piled up by the Phi Delts early in the game and thus placed the first blotch on the Phi Delt record. As a result, the Crew attained first place with Phi Delta Theta running a close second. At the close of three out of four major intramural sports. Phi Delta Theta and Crew had bested six other organizations to claim for themselves a monopoly over intramural athletics this year, hlowever, there are still three more events. Floyd Wilson, Y.M.C.A. director, was ap- pointed intramural head for the spring events which were swimming, Softball, and bowling. The annual swimming meet was held at the Central Y.M.C.A. pool on Saturday evening, March 27. The competition consisted of the 40 and 100 yard free-style, 40 yard backstroke, 1 20 yard three-man medley relay, 40 yard breast stroke and the 160 yard four-man free style relay. Lambda Chi Alpha stepped into Rrst place hav- ing mustered 34 points against 30 gathered by the Phi Delta Theta team. The two outstanding participants in the swimming meet were Bob Rodgers and Emil Neeme of the Lambda Chis. Rodgers took hrst place in two events and swam on the winning medley relay team, while Neeme attained first place in one event and second in another. Lambda Chi Alpha thus succeeded in breaking up the long standing Phi Delta Theta — Crew monopoly over intramural sports. At this writing four out of six events have been completed, football, track, basketball and swim- ming. The Crew has taken a big step toward winning the all-intramual trophy this year. 85 ftflTUfifS HOME The war put a slight crimp in the traditional gala occasion of Butler ' s homecoming this year, but, nevertheless, the two days of fun and festivity called scores of grads back to their alma mater. Sorority and fraternity houses were overflowing as their doors were opened once again for returning alumni. Open houses and luncheons were in progress throughout the entire campus. The real homecoming activities started with a bang Friday noon with the annual Freshman- Sophomore fight. The battle broke all precedents as the scrappy freshmen, ably captained by hierb Eaton, scrambled to the top of the greased pole and claimed the white flag which for years had been in the possession of the second year men. The sophomores, led by John McCord, battled in vain, their efforts proved fruitless. Despite wartime restrictions a huge bonfire burned on the east field Friday night as students gathered in a drizzling rain for the customary pep talk and sing before the game. In connection with the bonfire a scrap drive was held in place of the traditional wood-gathering contest among the fraternities. Sigma Nu fraternity won the trophy of a metal bucket attached to a metal ash-tray base, symbol of wartime priorities. The remainder of Friday evening was spent in the decorating of the sorority and fraternity houses for the competition the next day. The traditional down town float was cancelled by the university officials in com- pliance with war restrictions. COMING The campus was a hum-drum of excitement ancJ activity Saturday morning as last minute Finishing touches were added to the house decorations in preparation for judging. After a careful survey of all houses, Delta Tau Delta and Alpha Chi Omega were declared the winners for the fra- ternities and sororities respectively. Homecoming activities come to a climax in the afternoon as students, professors, graduates and sports fans gathered for the grudge battle between Butler and her arch enemy of long standing, DePouw. The tilt proved to accentuate even more the excitement of the two activity filled days as Butler swamped the Tigers in a well-played contest 39-0. The annual homecoming dance Saturday night was sponsored by the senior honorories. Blue Key and Scarlet Quill. Larry Dorrell s orchestra played for the dancing. Leslie Shippey reigned as the first Butler homecoming queen and during the intermission was presented a trophy by Dick Carson, Blue Key president. The presidents of the groups with the winning house decorations were awarded trophies by Joan Henning, president of Chimes. And so another homecoming came to a close — a weekend filled with parties, dances and the renew- ing of old friendships. No matter what the next war torn years may bring no one can take away the memories of a Butler homecoming and the wonderful times of the post. u Mary Lou Westfall JUNIOR PROM QUEEN Queen Mary Lou Westfall was crowned at the stroke of midnight by Prom Chairman, Leslie Dold. Miss Westfall was presented with a huge gold trophy. Although the ranks of the third year class were depleted by members who were called to the service of Uncle Sam, those who remained must be commended for their deter- mination to carry on Butler tradition — The Prom must go on. Greek organizations must be thanked for their contributions to make the prom possible. Jack Russell and his ten piece orchesrta played for the dancing at the Murat Temple from 1 p.m. until 1 a.m. His orchestra is famed for enga ge- ments in all the smart night clubs of Chicago — the Black Hawk, Edgewater Beach, and the Stevens Hotel. He broadcasts over the national networks of N.B.C., C.B.S., and Mutual. (Jack was so fond of Butler s prom queen that he offered her a job singing with his orchestra any time, anywhere . ' :; A large crowd danced to the music of Jock and his band. Chaperones were Dean and Mrs. Phillip M. Bail, Dr. and Mrs. Karl S. Means, Prof, and Mrs. L. Gray Burdin and Dean Eliza- beth B. Ward. Robert Scheigert, lone contestant in the annual beard growing contest, was awarded a free ticket to the affair. Dress for the dance of 44 was optional — dress or street — and the crowd was a mixture of both. 91 Baxter, Butler s utility man. Kappa Kappa Psi on parade. Pop speaks at Homecoming.

In each of these wars Butler students and alumni have been called to leave their homes and enter the service of their country. Although Butler is a small school, in the present world conflict over thirteen hundred former students are now serving Uncle Sam in the various branches of the service. Many of them have already given and many of them will yet be called upon to give the supreme sacrifice, that of their lives for their country, in order that the essence of freedom and democracy may survive. It is to these men — the buck privates, the officers, the marines, the navy, the army, the air corps, — the 1943 Drift has been dedicated. Men and women students alike have felt that it was their duty to do their part for their country by enlisting in the many branches of the service. Many of those students who remain behind are already enlisted in the various reserve units of the service and are merely marking time until they ore called — striving to learn and better fit themselves for the time when they do don the uniform of their country. Many of our faculty members have realized that with the decrease in enrollment that they could lend their services to their country in a way more helpful than teaching in a university. Those of the faculty who remain are doing their part by instructing the Army Air Crew Division stationed on the Butler campus. Of all these men — students, faculty, alumni— Butler has a right to be proud. In an effort to keep Butler servicemen in touch with campus activities and to bolster their morale a group of coeds oroanized the Butler Correspond- ence Association. The members of the organiza- tion pledge themselves to write at least three Butler boys who are now in the service giving them news of home and of Fairview happenings. Answers from the fellows indicate that they appreciate the letters the girls are writing. The Collegian, upon request of the men, is mailing over a hundred copies daily to various camps throughout the country, free of charge. The alumni office is doing its part by mailing greeting cards and copies of the Alumnus to the boys. This office was responsible for the erecting of a role of honor in Jordan Hail — a placard bearing the names, addresses, and the branch of service in which many of the Butler boys have en- listed. The boys who have enlisted are happy in getting some of the adventure and excitement that is innate in all fellows. All those who are in the service ore anxious for foreign duty and action immediately. Butler boys are stationed in every country where there is fighting going on and in every state of the Union. There are men in China, Africa, Australia, the Atlantic, the Pacific. Twelve have been known to have been killed in action, five have been reported missing, several are prisoners of war of both Germans and Japanese. Most of the professors in the service ore serving as instructors. Several members of the faculty, while not in actual service, have given up their teaching positions to accept essential jobs in Washington. It is upon men like these — the boys we all went to school with — that the preservation of our way of living, the four freedoms of the world, depend. Their responsibility must not end with the field of battle, these men must prepare themselves to be lead ers in the period of reconstruction that is to come. The world of tomorrow must look to the college students of today for its leadership. 104 Honor Roll James L, Adams Rex Allspaw Louis Alsop Wilbur Bagby Raymond Bagley Don Baker Jack Behrmann Harrison Behrndt George Bender Robert Bensema Charles Bensett Glenn Booker Bernard Broderick Robert Brown Joseph Bruno Ben Bugbee Jean C.

Starting the year in September with its first woman editor in recent years, the Collegian staff was headed throughout the first semester by Mildred Reimer, senior journalism major. Taking over in January, when Miss Reimer accepted the position of assistant in the publicity director ' s office, Robert C. Shalk served as editor during the second semester. The Collegian continued its policy this year of sponsoring worthwhile school projects as well as tracking down the university news for four issues a week. At Christmas time the paper sponsored its annual Christmas Cheer drive for the benefit of unfortunate families and saw one of the most successful drives ever held. One of the most noteworthy projects sponsored by the Collegian this year was the war bond and stomp drive conducted in March. Sales during a two-week period netted $100,501 with more than $84,000 sold on the hnal day of the drive. Mary Lou Westfoll, junior from Lebanon, was elected to represent Butler students as Bond Sweet- heart. She was honored at the Navalcade show, which traveled over the state selling bonds, and was presented a loving cup by Secretary of the Navy, Frank Knox, at the state-wide rally held in the Codle Tabernacle in April. Although Phi Delta Theta kept the campaign in full swing, Kappa Alpha Theta nosed them out the last day to win the organization plaque for the most bond pur- chases. Chairmen of the contest were Donnie Douglas and Mildred Reimer, who were assisted by lone Colligan, Betty Thome, and William Whitley. Through the campaign the Collegian received state-wide recognition and Butler was praised by Eugene C. Pulliam, executive chairman of the Indiana War Finance committee, as being the first college in the country to conduct such a drive. The Collegian also sponsored during the fall semester the election of a Blackout King and Queen, Bill Witt and Jackie Blomberg, who were honored at an all-school mixer and whose pictures appeared in the Collegiate Digest, national rotogravure monthly. When Miss Reimer took over the editor s pencil, the coeds on the Collegian staff also began to lend a helping hand in the mechanical department, and it was no uncommon sight to see Editor Reimer or her assistants, Donnie Douglas and Jean Bran- non, with ink-smudged hands or burned fingers after handling the hot type, setting headlines, and putting stories into page forms. After Arthur J. Lively, assistant in the mechanical department, left early in the year to become a chaplain in the army, John Sparks took over the job of helping Everett Miller, printer, and Mrs. Winifred Ford also held the place for several weeks. Besides Harold Dormer, associate editor,- Miss Douglas, city editor,- and Miss Brannon and Joe Zainey, assistant city editors, other journalists on the editorial staff were Jane Lewis, society editor,- Robert Ohieyer, telegraph editor, and lone Colligan, Jean Kerchevol, Jock Dorfman and Bernice FHouser, reporters. On the business staff were William Ronsdell, business manager, who later went to work for the Indianapolis Star and was replaced by James Morrow. Joyce Prendergast was advertising manager and Duone Joyce and Nick Smyrnis were sports editors. Betty Jo Fork was the outstanding freshman reporter on the staff throughout the year. During the second semester the pole position was token over by Bob Scholk who served his second term as editor of the publication. Second semester staff members were at the beginning of the term Donnie Douglas, managing editor; Joseph Zainey, city editor,- Jean Brannon and Joseph Greenberg, assistant city editors,- Betty Lee Snyder, society editor, and William Scott, drama editor. Greenberg, James Mitchell, and Raphael Galermon served as sports editors at different times during the semester. After Zainey left for the army Jean Brannon became city editor assisted by Joe Greenberg and lone Colligan. Bob Strain was business manager. 110 Slot man keeps an eagle eye on his copy desk as they struggle with head- lines for tomorrow ' s issue. • Sports and society put their heads together to collaborate on a scoop .

JOE KETTERY Editor-in-Chief ROBERT McCLARAN Business Manager 1943 DRIFT In publishing the Drift this year the staff has kept foremost in their minds the ever present changes that are taking place at Butler University. At present our school has become a training center for men in the service. During the year we have lost many members of our student body and faculty, many of whom have gone into the service. In keeping with this progressive change the theme of the book has been to illustrate the changing scene . Each year the greatest task of the staff is to publish the book on time, never forgetting that the content of the book must also maintain the standards for which it is recognized. With the utmost co-operation of Professor Burdin, our faculty adviser, and those who have so willingly worked on the staff the material this year has been edited with the maximum of efficiency. Each operation has been carried out as quickly as possible giving each individual feature careful and diligent attention. Our aim has been to make the book interesting as well as attractive. The opening section is the largest that has ever been introduced in the history ofthe book. Probably the most outstanding feature is the military section which reflects a highly important phase of our college life this year. A great amount of time has been spent in taking pictures of the many different scenes of military activities on the campus. As editor-in-chief, Joe Kettery began work on the book early lost summer. During the past year he has aided and supervised each unit, co-ordinat- ing the various staff responsibilities necessary in leading the book to a successful conclusion. As a result of the work of Robert McClaren, a conscien- tious Business Manager, the Drift has proven to be an economical publication this year. The bills congruent to the publication have been paid on time in every instance. Perhaps one of the most untiring workers on the staff this year has been Joe Guennel, the Art Editor. The handsome division pages in this book ore products of his creation. 112 Through his ability and versatility as an artist the many visions and dreams of the editor and the other members of the staff have been brought to reality. To Jane Lewis, the Associate Editor, we are indeed grateful. In her position she has given unstintingly of her time and the preparation of the copy has been under her direction. Photog- raphy in a yearbook is essential and the Drift this year was fortunate to have two photographers as capable as Max White and William Patterson. Their work has not been sporadic but has been continuous throughout the year. Laura hiart, who made possible the highly significant military section, has contributed work which is exceedingly commendable. Taking time off as editor of the Collegian, Bob Schalk covered the sports field superbly. Through his write-ups one may clearly follow the progress of our varsity sports organizations. Praise is also due to Mildred Reimer and Jane Whipple for their untiring efforts as typists and feature writers. In securing contracts as a source of income Tom Lomson and Dal Agnes proved to be able assistants to Bob McClaran. Another member of the staff deserving of comment is Joe Howetl who wrote many of the fine write-ups, and in so doing proved to be an important cog in the editorial staff. In behalf of the Drift and the Drift staff we wish to extend thanks to all who assisted. The Drift staff of 1943 has published this year- book in the hopes that someday it may help you to recall the grand old times of your college days. In order to do this we have taken into consideration that you will cherish it for many years to come. In view of this it has been organized systematically so as to enable you to recognize and appreciate each page in the years to follow. The Drift has been in the fortunate situation of having quite a few interested in the yearbook and therefore no one has had too great a task. This year as before the yearbook has kept pace with the growth of the university in preserving a con- tinuous record of its activities. It is our hope that each time you open it you will be able to partially relive the happy years that you spent at Butler University. Even with the adverse conditions caused by the war those concerns who have printed, engraved and made the covers have responded encourag- ingly. A patriotic cover was chosen at the first of the year, however, the company responsible for the making of them ceased production. After much deliberation another cover equally as beautiful and suitable to a book of this type was selected. With pride in this book, the culmination of our efforts throughout the year, with the sincere wish that you will possess and admire it with pleasure too, we present to you, the student body and faculty, your Drift for 1943.

War Counc Leading Butler University in all projects pertain- ing to students and the war, the Student-Faculty War Council this year has carried on various services giving Butler state-wide recognition and showing student contribution to the war effort. At the beginning of the school term, Dr. M. O. Ross, president, outlined a five-point program for the council which has been effectively carried out. The program included war stamp and bond sales, blood donor drive, scrap collection, air raid and fire drills, and nutrition courses held at Butler. Fraternities and independent organizations on the campus participated in a scrap drive held in the fall of the year. This campaign was continued during the latter part of the spring. The first air raid drill was held during lost se- mester students vacated rooms and found shelter in the basement of Jordan FHoll and in corridors on the first floor. Coeds on the campus have been helping in the war effort by selling stamps and bonds at the Victory bond booth in Jordan hiall. Although stamps and bonds were sold continually during the year, the largest sales took place during the Bond Sweetheart campaign sponsored by the Collegian in cooperation with the War Council. Sales netted $100,501 with more than $85,000 were sold in one day. Mary Lou Westfall, Kappa Alpha Theta junior coed, was elected Bond Sweetheart. Many Butler students have contributed blood to the Red Cross blood bank, thus aiding men in the armed forces. The War council was originated in 1941 at the request of the United States government under the guidance of officials of Fort Benjamin Harrison, to impress the seriousness of the war situation on Butler students and to promote war activities among the student body. Dr. A. Dale Beeler was chairman of the council during the first half of the year. Upon his resigna- tion he was succeeded by Dr. Charles C. Josey. Mildred Reimer, senior, was secretary for both semesters. The main project of the council during the second semester in addition to the stomp drive was the drawing up of a petition to send to Indiana members of the United States Senate, urging greater cooperation with the Allies on the port of the United States. The petition was signed by Butler students, faculty members, and friends of the university. Members of the council, chosen on the basis of school leadership, include Suzanne Masters, Robert Goodwin, Betty Murnan, Martha Hostetter, Elizabeth Meyer, Wilmo Gray, William Mortimer, Shirley Anne Einbinder, Frank Celarek, Harry Monroe, Donnie Douglas, and Miss Reimer. Faculty members of the council were Dr. Elizabeth Ward, Prof. George F. Leonard, Prof. Charles J. Anthony, Dr. William Moore, Prof. Kathryn J. Journey, Dr. Karl S. Means, Dr. Albert Mock, Dr. James H. Peeling, and Mr. Paul M. Ross, acting publicity director. 114 CLUBS Row 1: Judd Steinbough Benjamin Row 2: Masters Reimer Mummert Fuller Row 3: Hadden Lewis Row 1: Sellers Brock Carson Row 2: Simmons Hamp Guenne Row 3: Hudelson Mr. Anthony SCARLET QUILL Scarlet Quill is the senior women ' s honorary organization whose purpose is to foster interest in all valuable university activities and to develop the qualities of leadership and responsibility in its members. The membership consists of twelve women chosen in recognition of their scholarship, character, personality, and extra- curricular activities. This year the members of Scarlet Quill wore the traditional scarlet quill appli- qued on a navy blue jerkin. Small, gold quill pins were also worn. Scarlet Quill attempts to create an interest in scholarship by awarding a scholar- ship of one semester ' s tuition to the sophomore girl with the highest scholastic av- erage. Other activities are the sponsoring of the Homecoming dance in collabor- ation with Blue Key, senior men ' s honorary fraternity. Scarlet Quill alumnae are entertained by a tea given by active members on Class Day. Graduating members of Scarlet Quill cap their new members at the Spring Sing. This ceremony is followed by a rough initiation and formal initiation and breakfast at the end of the spring term. Election of officers is held at this time. Qfficers were Sally Steinbaugh, president,- Mary Janet Mummert, vice-president; Ruth Recktenwall, secretary; Norvellc Judd, treasurer and Mrs. Thor G. Wesenberg, sponsor. BLUE KEY An ambition for intellectual attainment and a desire to serve college and fellows will be fostered among students in institutions of higher learning; Student problems may be studied, student life may be enriched, and the progress and best interests of the institutions in which the organization is found may be stimulated and promoted. This quotation, from the Preamble of the Constitution of Blue Key National hHonor Fraternity best points out the true purpose of Blue Key on the Butler Campus. During the past year the Senior honorary boasted a membership of nine men, two of which, Kottlowski and Dreesen, were called early in the year to serve our country. Officers of the chapter were: Richard Carson, Pres.; Myron Simmons, Vice-Pres.; and Marlyn Brock, Sec.-Treos. Professor Charles J. Anthony served very ably as faculty advisor. Blue Key sponsored the first all-school pep-session preceeding the Xavier Foot- ball game. At this time Butler Athletic dignitaries gave rousing speeches to the student body. The most successful dance, both socially and financially, of the school year was the homecoming dance which was co-sponsored by Blue Key and Scarlet Quill. The final major event planned by Blue Key was the Annual Football Banquet, which honored the gridders. Butler was fortunate in obtaining the services of its former athletic director, Lt. Paul D. Hinkle, as the guest speaker. Other guests were Governor Henry F. Schricker, Hilton U. Brown, and W. F. Fox, Jr. In the hope of perpetuating the activities of Blue Key on the Butler Campus eleven men were pledged and initiated early in the spring. 117 CHIMES This year the members of Chimes, the Junior women ' s honorary organization were recognized by their white shirts, dark skirts and light blue suede vests with the Chimes insignia in gold felt sewed on the back, and by their gold necklaces with small gold chimes pendants attached. Each spring, Sophomore women with high scholarship, leadership, and activity records are elected to the group. Business meetings ore held weekly and members attend a spread once a month. One of the most popular activities this year was the monthly bake sale at which time home-made baked goods were sold at the fraternity and sorority houses. A tea for all girls transferring from other universities to Butler was one of the group ' s projects, as was the sponsoring of the decorations for hlomecoming. The group compiled all the rules and regulations governing the contest and presented the winning sorority and fraternity with wooden trophies. The annual sweetheart dinner with members dressing in formal attire and escorting their best friends as dates rounded out the years social activities. Officers of the group this year were: president, Joan hHenning,- vice-president, Dorothy Newgent; secretary, Martha Kirby,- and treasurer, Jean Wells. i 1 SPHINX Sphinx is the honorary organization for Junior men. Members are chosen during their sophomore year on the basis of leadership, scholarship, personality, and par- ticipation in campus activities. The members can be recognized by their white caps with black bonds and keys bearing the insignia of the organization. The first major activity of the organization was the selling of freshman pots. Sphinx members sponsored the homecoming scrap drive which took the place of the traditional inter-froternity wood-gathering contest. As a result of the success of the affair the Butler chapter of Sphinx was given national recognition as sponsors of one of the largest such drives in the nation. Because of the war and the fact that all social programs were cut to a minimum the Sphinx club did not sponsor its annual dance which has previously been held to stimulate interest in the Butler Relays. New pledges to the organization were announced early in the second semester instead of in the spring as is the usual custom. This was done in order that the new members might be initiated before being called to the services of their country. Initiation services were held in the student lounge soon after the second semester began. Sphinx lost many of its members to the armed forces including Tyke Manifold, Steve DeWold, Wallace Potter, Earl Miller, and Bill Ransdoll. The officers for the year were Robert Knowles, president; Earl Miller, vice-president, and Carl Braden, secretary. 11!

Twenty-two girls were initiated into the organization at the beginning of the first semester and carried on the affairs of the honorary in fine shape. Due to wartime restrictions the girls were unable to sell the traditional balloons at the football games, however they substituted confetti and streamers and sold them at ail the home games. Later in the year they sold roses for the Freshman Rose Dance in Jordan Hall and gave a card party in the cafeteria for prospective members. Soon after it was announced that twenty-five women would moke up the group for next year. Spreads were held throughout the year at the various sorority houses and Spurs Founder ' s Day, February 14, was observed with a special spread meeting. Members of the group could be distinguished throughout the year by the white sweaters and blue emblems, which are symbolic of their organization. The coeds chose Tuesday as the day to wear these outfits. Several articles concerning the Butler chapter were included in the Spur, the notional magazine, which is published twice a year. This year ' s group of women have been lead by Carolyn Pickering, president; Beth Henderson, vice-president; Gretchen Edwards, secretary; lone Colligan, treas- urer; and Betty Lee Snyder, historian. UTES Those good-looking boys who have been seen running around the campus this year with those colorful maroon, green, gold, and white caps, are all members of Utes, sophomore men ' s honorary organization. This club, founded in 1930, chooses its members on the basis of personality and activities. The four letters of the word Utes stand for — University Tradi- tions Enforced by Sophomores . Utes takes the lead in forcing the freshmen to wear their green pots and also provides the pole for the annual freshman-sophomore fight during Homecoming Week. Other activities this year included the annual Utes Pow-wow, a dance held in the fall at the Southern Mansion, with Ayarrs Lamarr and his orchestra furnishing the music. Bill Wineberg was chosen Chief Pow-wow, popular campus gadabout, by the guests at the dance. Ross Richards had charge of arrangements. Utes challenged Blue Key to a basketball game, in keeping with the Hoosier State ' s great sport, and the sophomores returned home the victors, having eked out a close decision over the seniors. Initiation ceremonies for new pledges were held soon after the beginning of the second semester in order to include everyone chosen. Officers originally elected were: Dean Wildman, president; Ross Richards, vice-president; Bob Hollensbe, secretary; and Jim Mitchell, treasurer. Buzz Word assumed the presidency when Wildman left for the Army. Prof. Charles H. Walters served as sponsor. 121 STUDENT COUNCIL The Student Council is composed of representative students elected from the student body. If controls all class and contest elections, raises and controls a student budget, approves the constitutions of new organizations, and legislates regarding such student affairs as are not under faculty administration. Membership is com- posed of three sophomores, three juniors, three seniors and hold-over members of the previous council. Members must hove a cumulative grade point average of one point five. This year the council in compliance with the university wartime program in- augurated a series of Wednesday mixers to provide entertainment for students suffer- ing from the pongs of gas rationing. The mixers were held in the new cafeteria and in the student lounge. Music for dancing was provided by Joe Zoiney ' s band composed primarily of Butler students. During the year the Student Council constitution was revised and modernized. Meetings were held on alternate Wednesday evenings at 5 p.m. Unity among the members of the council was considerably better than in past years as the group cooperated in working for the betterment of school election conditions. Bill Mortimer served as president of the group. Other members were Phyllis Hodden, Wilma Gray, Norvella Judd, James Seller, Ruth Recktenwall, Donna Budd, Joe Kettery, Leslie Dold, Janet Johnson, Milton Dickos, Joan Williams, Robert Rehl and Richard Jowitt. PANHELLENIC COUNCIL The Panhellenic Council is formed by the president and rush chairman of each sorority on campus. The council deals with the problems of sorority life. Rush rules and regulations are one of the organization ' s chief responsibilities. This year the Council has limited spring rush to two functions instead of the usual four. This change seemed appropriate in view of the war. Last fall the Panhellenic tea was given for all new women students and their mothers . This function was for- merly limited to sorority pledges only. The Panhell Dance, held November 21, 1942, opened the formal season at Butler It was sponsored by this group and is one of its annual activities. The dance was held at the Knights of Columbus hall and the music was furnished by Stan Sterbenz and his orchestra. The council has under consideration a plan to construct a crushed stone walk leading from Jordan rloll to hlompton Drive. This walk would be a great improvement to both the utility and appearance of the campus. Panhellenic also sponsors a loon fund which is at the disposal of needy women students. The officers this year are Wilma Gray, president, and Mary Janet Mummert, sec- retary-treasurer. Dean Elizabeth B. Ward is the sponsor of the Panhellenic Council. 122 Re Williams Morlimer Johnson Row 2: Hodden Budd Recktenwall Seller Row 3: Dickos Kettery Jowitt Dr. Burdette Row 1: Hendricks Peacock Krueger Redwine Johnson Row 2: Miles Mummert Gray Dean Ward Judd Row 3: Mottern Cross Henry Cabalzer Smeod 123 4 Building for Freedom Today and Tomorrow is the theme around which the wor! of the Y.W.C.A. has been based this year.

The Thela Sigs are one of the most active campus groups. During the fall semester they sponsored the annual girl-take-boy dance, Riters Roundup ' , at the K. of C. Hall. The outstanding event of the evening was the crowning of Ernie Tidrow as Butler s 4F king. The group also sponsored Matrix table, a dinner to which out- standing coeds are invited. In the spring the group held its Razz Banquet, for women only, at which many coeds received razz awards. Mildred Reimer served as president, Beth Meyer, vice-president, and Jane Lewis, secretary- treasurer. AMERICAN CHEMICAL SOCIETY The local student affiliate chapter of the American Chemical Society has served the Butler chemistry department by increasing scientific interest among students and local citizens.

LOYALTY LEGION This year, perhaps more than ever there has been a decided need at Butler for an organization such as the Loyalty Legion. This group, composed of sorority and fraternity representatives, has tried to promote enthusiasm in school activities and to keep school spirit on a high level. Many of the regularly scheduled events at Butler were cancelled due to the war, but the Loyalty Legion promoted the remaining school functions. Among these was selling tags for Andy Williams Tag Day — the proceeds of which went toward o memorial to Andy Williams. The Loyalty Legion sponsored a tea-dance in the lounge following a football game last fall. Officers were Harry Evord, president; Kathleen Kouns, vice-president; Jane Mottern, secretary, and Bill McLeod, treasurer. PHI CHI NU Phi Chi Nu is o notional honorary scholastic fraternity for freshmen women. Any women with a 2.5 grade overage during the first semester of her freshman year is automatically made a member. The membership was previously restricted to freshmen women in the College of Liberal Arts who had maintained a 2.26 average. The orgonization gave a tea after the first six weeks of the fall semester for all women students who mode a 2. overage or better. Then at the beginning of the second semester another tea was held for the new members. The officers this year were Clyde Holder, president; Betty Thome, vice-president; Gwendolyn Brock, secretory; and Jane Whipple, treasurer. PHILHARMONIC CHOIR Music hath charm might well be the phrase used to describe this renowned organization, for the Butler-Jordan Philharmonic choir has done much in the lost five years to bring fame to Butler University. I his past season has been no exception, for, although the group was hit by the draft, they presented stirring concerts in the city and state. Among their presentations were a four-day performance at Keith ' s theatre, a dinner program of music for the Rickenbacker banquet, the sunrise service on monu- ' Arr ' ' ° ' Easter, and other engagements in churches and for civic organizations. Officers were Therrell Davis, president; Betty Murnon, vice-president, and Louellan Frimble, secretary.

The club was primarily a discussion group for advanced students with a two point average only. It established a Butler Radio Bureau and offered the first radio programs given at Butler. Many in- spection trips to various industrial plants have been arranged for practical application of class- room theories. Officers are Bob Seet, president; Janet Mitchell, vice-president; Joe Sharp, treasurer and Jo Ann Ranstead, secretary. Dr. Guy H. Shadinger is the faculty sponsor. Blue Gills, the women s swimming organization, pledged and initiated nine girls this year. Member- ship was gained after the successful completion of tests which include swimming, diving, and water stunts. Since the navy found it necessary to take over the Butler fieldhouse for military purposes, the Blue Gills, with the kind consent of Mr. Makin, have been using the Riviera Club as their meeting place. Mrs, Turpin Davis was sponsor of the organiza- tion. Jean Chauncey acted as president. Other officers were Judy Redwine, vice-president, Pat McGuire, treasurer, and Ardath Weigler, secretary. 136 l Brown Hill Albert ow 2: Banks Kullowattz Miles College of Religion Student Body MINISTERIAL ASSOCIATION The Student Ministerial Association had its incipiency in the need for an emphasis in fellow- ship, evangelism, preaching and social activities among the students of religion. This organization is composed of students in the Department of Religion in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences and those of the School of Religion. This organization has had a colorful history, it dates bock to the old Butler Campus in irvington. There it was known as the Sandwich Club , meet- ing at the dinner hour. Throughout the history of the organization there have been opportunities for free and full discussion of issues pertaining to the work of the ministry. The organization has invited prominent leaders of various fields for its monthly meetings. The group has revitalized weal congregations, conducted mission meetings, preached for indus- trial groups and has contributed to several emerg- encies. The purpose of the Association is extra-curricular activities for development in leadership, spiritual qualities and culture. The officers for the year were Paul Deane Hill president; Eugene R. Brown, vice-president; Robert E. Banks, secretary, and Frank J. Albert and Vernon H. Kullowatz, treasurers. RELIGION STUDENTS The students enrolled in the school of religion and the department of religion of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences number close to two hundred. While studying for their degrees these students ore also active in serving approximately one hundred and seventy-five churches in the states of Indiana, Ohio, Kentucky and Illinois. From this group of students twenty-seven have entered the service of their country serving as chaplains for the various branches of the armed forces. Twelve students in both the school and depart- mental groups are studying for missionary work. The student body of the College of Religion contains representatives from many foreign coun- tries and from every state in the United States. Both groups also contain representatives from numerous religious denominations. An outstanding feature of the College of Religion is the chapel services held in the new building. The services are held four times a week at 1 1 :40. They ore conducted by members of the faculty and are often highlighted by guest speakers. One service a month is conducted by the Student Ministerial Association. 137 ofiGflnizflTions Row 1 Row 2 Row 3 Row 4 Row 5 Row 6 Pitcher, Cantwell, Hudelson, Langell, Niman, Salb, Taylor.

The Rainbow, or W.W.W. Society, founded in 1848 at the University of Mis- sissippi, amalgamated with Delta Tau Delta in 1886. 1 he fraternity now has 76 active under- graduate chapters, 71 alumni chapters and a membership of over 34,000. Early in the year 1875, Beta Zeta chapter was established, but it became inactive not long after- ward. Under the leadership of John Holliday Oliver, 79, the chapter was re-established on February 11, 1878, and has been in continuous existence ever since. Nine years later, on February 10, 1887, the Delts acquired the first fraternity hall on the Butler campus. From the beginning, the chapter has claimed many of the outstanding men on the campus, and believing quality to be more important than quantity, has followed the policy of admitting to membership only those men capable of adding something worthwhile to the chapter. Among the more outstanding sons of Butler who became wearers of the square badge are: Thomas Carr FHowe, 89, former president of Butler,- James B. Curtis, ' 80, past president of Delta Tau Delta and one of the organizers of the National Inter- fraternity Conference; John W. Atherton, 00, Secretary-treasurer of Butler,- FHarold B. Tharp, 11, another former national president of the fraternity and twice president of the Indianapolis community fund; Professor Smith L. Thompson, 07, of Indiana University, international authority on folklore; Kenneth K. Wooling, 13, member of the Butler board of directors; and Judge Emsley W. Johnson, Jr., 34, president of the Butler Alumni Association. Over the years Delta Tau Delta ranks higher in scholarship than any other fraternity on the campus and has maintained a higher ranking nationally in this respect as well. During the past year the chapter entered into school activities with a will and enjoyed many social events. In October the fine new pledge class was formally presented to the campus. Out of the swirl of homecoming activities the Delts managed to snare the trophy for the best house decoration and welcomed many alumni back to the Shelter. During Thanksgiving vacation the chapter held its 33rd annual house party at Turkey Run State Park, and on December 11th the pledges gave their annual hard times dance. The Delts won the Butler Christmas Cheer Drive for the second successive year. On February 7th 1 3 men registered their fraternal vows and resolved to uphold the Delt heritage. The annual pledge dance was held February 19th at the Marott Hotel, and on February 26th and 27th the annual state Founders Day banquet and dance were held in conjunction with the annual northern division conference at the Indianapolis Athletic Club. This year Beta Zeta worked under the leadership of Robert Pitcher, president; Richard Hudelson, vice-president; Winston Sellick, treasurer; Robert Wildman, rush chairman; Leslie Dold, social chairman; and William Wildman, song leader. Delt pin serenades, with their traditional snake- walks and flaming Greek letters, were given for every sorority on the campus, and Delts were participants in athletics, publications, honoraries, clubs, and class offices. ■ i wsrspa ' 141 j .4 . j mg a Lambda Chi Alpha Lambda Chi Alpha is the largest national fraternity on the Butler campus, it had its beginning in the Cosmopolitan Law Club at Boston Uni- versity, Boston Massachusetts. The First chapter, Alpha Chapter, was founded in 1909. The fra- ternity s greatest period of growth was at the time of, and soon after. World War I. Despite the fact that ninety per cent of the fraternity s member- ship served with the armed forces of the United States, new chapters were constantly being added throughout the nation. Lambda Chi Alpha fraternity came to Butler University in 1915 when the Alpha Alpha chapter was established. The local chapter has approx- imately four hundred members today. A chapter in Toronto, Canada, makes Lambda Chi Alpha on international fraternity. Lambda Chi Alpha has played a significant part in the history of the National Inter- fraternity conference. It was the leader in the founding of the conference. Its officers have served on the executive committees and a member of the fraternity is the secretary of the interfroternity body at present. Here at Butler, Lambda Chi Alpha has each year increased its power and prestige in all fields of student activity. Under the guidance of pres- idents hiarold Mossey and Milton Dickos, members of the local chapter have retained commanding offices in the various scholastic societies and departmental organizations on the campus. Both presidents have striven to maintain the high scholas- tic standing of the local chapter. Patriotism has prompted almost one hundred members who wear the crescent to actively answer the call to arms. Many of them are now hghting in Guadalcanal, in Northern Africa, and on the high seas. Those of the local chapter who remain at Butler are all inbranches of the different enlisted reserve corps. In the field of varsity athletics Lambda Chi Alpha has taken a commanding position, having six men on the starting line-up of this year s football team. The fraternity was well represented on the reserve team as well as on the freshman team. hHarold Mossey was backfield coach of the Bull- dogs this year. In varsity basketball three men represented the chapter. Others served on the freshman and reserve teams. Fully aware of its remarkable prestige, active Lambda Chis this year have garnered an ever- increasing claim for the fraternity s share of firsts. The social year was for from dull with a well- rounded schedule of dances, exchange dinners, picnics, outings, and informal parties and smokers. One of the highlights of the social season was the Christmas dance, sponsored by the pledges. The active dance, the Valentine dance, was held early in February. Perhaps the crowning event of the social season was reached with the state day ban- quet and dance combining all eight of the Indiana chapters. It was held March 1 3 at the Columbia Club. The annual spring formal was held at the Southern Mansion. Lambda Chi Alpha is ever building for the future, and even in a war torn world it will survive and grow to even greater heights due to its notional prominence. 142 llkk: Row 1: Mossey, Batts, DeWald, Means, Perrone, James.

In the five wars which have taken place since its founding Phi Delta Theta has in some way left its mark of accomplishment on the annals of American history. Still holding the position of the largest and oldest fraternity on the Butler University campus Phi Delta Theta may proudly claim another year of outstanding service to the school. Founded on December 26, 1 848, at Miami University in Oxford, Ohio as a part of the Miami Triad, Phi Delta Theta has grown through the years until it has reached its present status of 106 chapters having initiated over 55,000 members. Every man who has worn the sword and shield will long remember Brother Hilton U. Brown, known as the Grand Old Man of Phi Delta Theta. Eight days before the signing of the Armistice in the first World War Brother Brown ' s son. Brother Hilton U. Brown, Jr., was killed in action at Nuart, France, on November 3, 1918. During the year of 1942 Phi Delta Theta suffered a great loss in the death of Brother Lou Gehrig. This year, as in years before. Phi Delta Theta has maintained a high standard of accomplishment to the university, Led by Brothers Scott Dukes and Lothoir Tyke Manifold as presidents the members participated in varsity athletics and others m intra- mural sports. Having attained first place in the annual cross country race, the Phi Delts and the Independents have split every other intramural athletic diadem available. This year the chapter held the presidencies of both the senior and sophomore classes as well as many other class officers. Well represented in all school honorary societies Phi Delta Theta claims four out of the eight members of Blue Key, senior men ' s honorary organization. Of these Brother Richard Carson served as president for the year. For the first time since the construction of their beautiful home in 1926 at 705 West Hampton Drive, Indiana Gamma moved to another loca- tion. Due to the present war the government chose Butler as a training site for the Army Air Crew. In order to provide sufficient quarters for the men who are so willingly training to fight for their country the chapter offered its home to the army to be used for housing these men. Although the social activities were limited be- cause of the war the chapter continued to par- ticipate in all school functions and held several fraternity events. Outstanding among these were the annual open house, Brown County Outing, pledge dance, Christmas dance, senior banquet and the state day banquet at the Columbia Club. Indiana Gamma will always be indebted to its Mother ' s Club for its thoughtfulness and sincere understanding. It gave plaques to the graduating seniors and worked hard to make our house a home. The Mother ' s Club serves as an inspiration which leads our men to do great things. 145 Sigma Chi Rho Chapter of Sigma Chi at Butler was founded in 1885, just ten years after the establishment of Butler University, and also ten years after the founding of the mother chapter at Miami Univer- sity at Oxford, Ohio on June 28, 1855. Since that time the fraternity has crown to include one- fiundred active chapters and over forty-five thou- sand members. The war has greatly influenced the activities of the Sigs of Rho Chapter this year. Many of the social affairs were torn from the year ' s calendar to save expenses. The money that was saved has been invested in war bonds to enable Uncle Sam to buy a few more guns for the Butler boys in the fighting forces. Realizing that it could play an important role in aiding the morale of the service men, Rho Chapter has taken several steps in that direction. Men in uniform have been special guests at chapter functions. A correspond- ence plan has also been established by which every Sig in the Armed forces will receive a letter once a week from another Sig. These fighting men ore supplied with lists of the other Sigs in the service so that they may correspond with one another. Copies of Rho Brothers Rho, the chapter publica- tion, are sent to the soldiers as well as the recent issues of The Magazine of Sigma Chi which is published by the national organization. Another feature of the Sigs ' war-plan is a plaque honoring the men in service which has been dedi- cated to the memory of Andrew Williams, the valiant Sig, who died from injuries received in gridiron practice. The plaque will replace many of the trophies which were donated to the scrap drive. On the social front there hove still been a few activities which featured a war theme. The rush parties in the early part of the year centered around movies and talks given by the U. S. Navy and by the Marines. These were followed by a black-out party and then the annual open-house which was enlivened by the splendid singing of the Butler Philharmonic Choir. Men in uniform were quite prominent in attendance at these affairs as well OS at the annual Christmas dance. The following semester the parents of the pledges were entertained at a social sponsored by the chapter. The Mothers ' Club also held its annual bridge parties and presented gifts to the fraternity. At the annual State Day dinner which is a union of Sigs from all over the State of Indiana, Rho won the attendance award for the tenth consecutive time, it was also disclosed at this time that many unofficial Sigma Chi chapters have sprung up in Army camps where in spite of difference in rank the Sigs get together for reunions. Also on the Sig social calendar for the past year were an Alumni dinner, a Christmas party, and a serenade for the other fraternities and sororities on the campus. Don rlelm has been the leading force in the fraternity during this war torn year, hie has been assisted in the chapter ' s war program by James Seller, former president; Thomas Luck, vice-presi- dent; Charles Augustin, pledge master; Earl Bon- ham, treasurer; Dick Jowitt, secretary; Robert Seet, corresponding secretary; Don Cutsinger, historian; and Robert Trent, rush-chairman. 146 Housemother: Mrs. Jennie DeSelmes TM ;kfi Row 1: Sellers, Clark, Davis, B., Helm, Shockleford, Schultz, Smith, Augustin.

Since 1869 the organization has grown until it now includes 98 active chapters and 12 now inactive. The membership of the fraternity now exceeds 39,000 men. The Butler chapter, Epsilon Mu, was chartered on May 7, 1926, and is the youngest fraternity on the campus. Officers of the fraternity this year were William McLeod, commander; Jack Patterson, lieutenant- commander,- James Miles, recorder,- Clayton Col- lins, chaplain,- Robert Rehl, sentinel; Chester Rob- inson, pledge master; Earl Miller, alumni contact officer; Glenn Miller, marshall; William Ellis, his- torian, and Horace Powell, reporter. Campus activities began early with the serenade of campus sororities at their formal pledging ban- quets. Sorority presidents were presented with bouquets of white roses. The annual pledge dance was held on December 4 at the Riviera Club with Pete Davis in charge. It was six straight for Sigma Nu when the chaptei was given the plaque for the fraternity making the greatest contribution to Butler ' s scrap drive, be- tween halves of the homecoming football game Forty-five of the total 180 tons were collected. At the annual Christmas party, ten unfortunate children from Fletcher Avenue Goodwill Industries were chapter guests. A good time followed as they were treated with dinner, toys, candy and Santa Clous. Highlighting fall social activities was this year ' s winter formal dance at the Roof Garden of the Severin Hotel on Jan. 23. Joe Zainey ' s orchestra provided the music. A basketball, autographed by Tony Hinkle, Pop Hedden, Wilbur Schumacher and Bob Dietz, was won as a result of the chapter ' s selling the greatest number of tickets to the Butler-Great Lakes game. Impressive initiation ceremonies were held for eligible candidates on February 1 3, followed by a banquet in the initiates ' honor. February 25 was a big day in the chapter ' s life for it was on that day that the chapter house was sacrificed for use by the arriving Army Aircrew students. Sigma Nu was willing to serve its country in this manner as well as contribute men to the fighting forces of our nation. Epsilon Mu, as were other Butler fraternities, was handicapped by the excessive loss of membership to the service. Not only are its members serving but some have mode the supreme sacrifice of giving their lives for their country. The heroic acts of these men shall not be forgotten for the chapter has purchased a service plaque and other memorials are being planned. Butler Sigma Nus pledge to carry on wherever they serve their country best, whether it be in the armed forces or studying in Butler ' s classrooms. 149 Alpha Chi Omega Alpha Chi Omega was founded at DePauw University in 1 885. In the United States and Canada there are now 63 active chapters with 20,000 members. Alpha Chi chapter was estab- lished on the Butler campus in 1925. The Mothers Club started in 1926 now has 90 active members. They have always been interested in the welfare of the group and have given it much material help. Alpha Chi introduced 20 pledges to alumnae at the Stardust banquet at the Indianapolis Athletic Club. These pledges were presented to the campus at open house October 4. Homecoming was a gay affair with Alpha Chi winning the house decorations. The winter social season was highlighted by a Christmas dance held at the chapter house. Members serenaded and distributed wreaths to all the sororities and fra- ternities before vacation. On February 13, 1943 the pledges entertained the active chapter with a Bomb Shelter Ball . During the spring semester Mrs. Rosito Nordwall, central province president, visited the chapter. Alpha Chi gave up its regular state day because of the war. An informal celebration was enjoyed by many Indiana Alpha Chis on Feb. 20, 1943 with a luncheon at the Indianapolis Athletic Club. Honored guests present were three founders and Lieut. Pratt, WAAC, from recruiting headquarters. Alpha Chi has one of the highest scholarship averages on the campus. During the year members have been well represented in campus activities. In class elections Jackie Blomberg was chosen secretary of the junior class and Shirley Peabody was elected freshman vice-president. Other honors and club officers are: Jean Busch- mann, president of Kappa Delta Pi; Elizabeth Smith, secretary of Kappa Beta, and in Who s Who; Jean Chauncey, president of Blue Gills,- Jackie Blomberg, president of Tau Kappa Alpha and Butlers Blackout Queen, and Wilma Gray, pres- ident of the Pan-hellenic association.

Alpha Chi chapter is cooperating in the war effort with all other Alpha Chi Omega chapters by selling bonds and stamps, studying first aid, working for the Red Cross, joining the USO and contributing to various war funds. An outstanding national project sponsored by Alpha Chi Omega is the annual contribution for the support of St. Christopher s nursery school for bomb-shocked children in Tunbridge Wells, Kent. Alpha Chi Chis have also undertaken a day nursery in the United States for the care of defense workers children. Twenty orphan children were entertained at the chapter house on February 27 as part of the al- truistic program.

The sorority is international with eighty-seven active chapters, three of which are in Canada. Delta Lambda chapter was founded at Butler in 1914. The fall semester social events started in Septem- ber with the Pearl Dinner at the Columbia Club given in honor of twenty-five new pledges. The newly-pledged were then formally introduced to the campus at the fall open house. Homecoming was a double event on the Tri Delt social calendar as Miss Hazel Horton, district- president visited the chapter house over the week- end. A chile supper followed by a social was given to celebrate the event. Next on the Delta Delta Delta calendar of activities was the Founder s Day dinner held at the Columbia Club. The annual Christmas dance was held at the chapter house and decorations were carried out in the patriotic theme. Other noteworthy events of the season included a pledge card party, slumber parties and record socials. The pledges gave a dance for the active chapter March 20.

Two class offices were filled by Tri Delts. Ruth Marie Ralph was secretary of the freshman class and Dorothy Herman was vice-president of the junior class. The Sophomore class chose Gretchen Edwards, Tri Delta, to reign as the Sophomore Sweetheart at their annual dance. Tri Delta has taken an active interest in the war effort. Several dinners at the house have been given to entertain the boys in uniform. A number of girls have contributed to the blood bank while others hove knitted for the Red Cross. Many have volunteered to do civilian defense work and ten members belong to the service men s organiza- tion. Tri Delt alumnae ore represented in the WAVES and WAACS, and others have sponsored the selling of war stomp corsages at major events throughout the city. Under the capable leadership of president, Betty Krueger, Delta Lambda chapter has experi- enced a successful year.

Alpha Tau was organized on the Butler campus in 1925. Delta Gamma was among the seven sororities that made up the first national Pan hellenic Congress. At the beginning of the school year there were 58 collegiate chapters and more than 22,000 Delta Gammas in the United States and Canada. Delta Gamma has enjoyed a very successful year with Jane Henry at the helm serving as president. They have entertained the members of the armed forces at socials held at the house, they ore buying war bonds, and they ore proud to have several prominent alumnae in the service of their country. Many of the girls spend much of their time at the service clubs in Indianapolis entertaining theservicemen. Thepledgesgave uptheir traditional pledge dance this year and put the money that was to be used for it into bonds. Several girls enrolled in first aid home nursing classes and others already hold certificates of membership from them. Instead of having the customary state day dance and spring formal this year the occasions were pooled into one big affair at the Columbia Club at Christmas time, a formal dinner cance. Dick Robbins and his orchestra furnished the music for the hop. The fall semester was really begun on October 12th with an open house to introduce the group of 21 new pledges to the campus and to faculty members. Early in the year the chapter was visited by the province secretary, Mrs. Ben Culbertson. During Mrs. Culbertson ' s visit the chapter gave a tea for the housemothers and presidents ot other groups on the campus. The tea was also in honor of the new Delta Gamma housemother, Mrs. Mary hHoskins. Delta Gamma held its annual Christmas party ' 0 the Dads and Mothers on December 13, and its chapter party on December 16. The pledges entertained the actives with a social held at the house on January 26. St. Patrick s Day provided the motif for the clever decorations. We point with pride to Phyllis Hadden who was elected by the Butler faculty to membership in Who s Who in America n Colleges and Universities, 1942-1943. Delta Gamma was well represented in the campus honorary societies. Spurs claimed Barbara Mahr and Margaret Sigler,- Mary Jo Clapp and Joan Henning were elected to Chimes, the latter of which was chosen president of the organization, and Phyllis Hadden became a member of Scarlet Quill. Phyllis Hadden served on the Student Council, and Mary Jo Clapp and Peggy Lee were selected for membership in Kappa Beta. While our activities have been cut down greatly because of the war, and though many changes have necessarily been mode, it is our hope that the spirit which symbolizes Delta Gamma friendship will not fade in these critical times.

During the course of seventy-three years, seventy- seven active chapters have been established in the United States and Canada with membership of over twenty-five thousand. Gamma Chapter was organ- ized at Butler on February 27, 1874, the first Greek letter sorority on this campus. Theta has had one desire in mind since 1874, that being to maintain a permanent residence on fraternity row. In September, 1940, the active chapter realized this hope when it moved into its new chapter house at 825 West hiampton Drive. The fall semester was introduced successfully when Theta pledged twenty-five girls, eight upper- classmen and seventeen freshmen. A formal tea and open house were held to introduce the girls to the campus. Soon after the fall semester began, Mrs. Laura Louise McCutchen, Theta District President came to visit the Thetos in their new residence on the Butler campus. The winter social season was highlighted with the Theta traditional Christmas dinner dance, which was combined with the pledge dance this year because of the world conditions. The Indianapolis Athletic Club was the scene of the dance and Louis Lowe s orchestra supplied the music. Since Theta stands high for scholastic attainment ' she is proud to rank very high among the campus organizations, hier greatest efforts are along this course of accomplishment as may be seen by her members in every honorary on the campus. Ruth Miles and Barbara Frederickson were initiated into Phi Kappa Phi, senior scholastic honorary this year. This year the chapter claimed several club pres- idents and class officers: Suzanne Masters, Pres- ident of Y.W.C.A.; Sally Steinbough, President of Scarlet Quill and President of Pi Epsilon Phi; Barbara Fuller, Secretary of the Senior Class; Joan Cox, Vice-President of the Sophomore Class. Joan Williams is the Theta on the Student Council. Marion Sturm is the President of W.A.A. and Vice-President of A. W.S. The first of January the Thetos bade Mrs. Mary Keegon, their former housemother a sad farewell. Mrs. Keegan has been the Theta s faithful house- mother for the past twenty years and has been in- valuable in her service to the girls. They were indeed fortunate to have Mrs. Grace Sweet, former Sigma Chi housemother, to assume her duties. Once again at the close of school, the active chapter bids her seniors good luck and good-by with the annual Senior banquet and dance on June 9, in honor of the graduating seniors. The chapter officers are: Bernie Wells, president; Mary Lou Westfall, vice-president; Ruth Chandler, recording secretary; Jean Wells, corresponding secretary; and Nancy FHiil, treasurer. 157 ' -:v-t ' w; ' ! m i i j '  Kappa Kappa Gamma Kappa Kappa Gamma was founded at Mon- mouth College, Monmouth, Illinois, in 1870. There are seventy-six active chapters and 24,000 mem- bers. Mu chapter was founded on the Butler campus in 1878. Mrs. Everett M. Scofield, the present national president of Kappa Kappa Gam- ma was an active member of Mu chapter. Under the guidance of Norvella Judd, Koppo has again hod a prosperous year. The social season opened with an Owl dinner at the chapter house honoring the new pledges. Later open house was held to introduce the new pledges to the campus. November 1 4th the pledges entertained the active chapter with their annual pledge dance at the house. A Christmas party was held preceding vacation and gifts were exchanged by everyone with Santo Clous making his descent down the chimney. After the party the chapter serenaded all campus fraternal organ- izations. Later in the year a Dad s dinner, a sweetheart dinner and a spring dance were held. Kappa is well represented in campus organiza- tions. Norvella Judd is a member of Scarlet Ouill, senior women s honorary, student council, and a member of the Pan hellenic council. Chimes, junior honorary, claims Jean Brannon, who is also a member of Theta Sigma Phi and city editor of the Collegian. Carolyn Pickering is president of Spurs, sophomore honorary and other Kappa members are Pat VanHorn, Marie Love, Mary Lu Marshall, and Helen Griffeth. Carolyn Pickering, hielen Griffeth and Mary Lou Marshall are also members of Phi Chi Nu. Martha hlostetter is president of A.W.S. and is active in Blue Gills and on the Judiciary Council. Barbara Badger is president of Philokureon and Judy Badger is a member of the group. Helen Shumaker is art editor of the Bulldog and is on the debate team. Janet Stayton is howls editor for the some publication. Carolyn Pickering is a member of the Philharmonic choir and of the Collegian staff. Joan Cross and Carolyn Pickering are Kappa s representatives in Loyalty Legion and several members of Kappa belong to W.A.A. Kappa is proud of the girls who have taken an interest in the war program. After deliberation it was decided to dispense with the annual Christ- mas dance and to entertain sailors instead. The Kappas entertained the boys in blue several times throughout the year. Kappa had more blood donors than any other organization on the campus. Among the girls donating to the Red Cross were Norvella Judd, Martha Hostetter, Evelyn Hammer, Corolyn Pickering, Leslie Shippey, Jeanne Clancy, Judy Badger, Louise Larson, Joan McTurnan, and Joan Cross. Many of the girls ore active in USO work and others knit faithfully for the Red Cross and other organizations. Several of the girls have purchased war bonds and others have worked faithfully in the bond booth in Jelly Hall. Leslie Shippey added another honor to her already long list of queenships when she won the homecoming queen election. She was crowned queen of the ball at the conclusion of homecoming activities at the Knights of Columbus Hall closing her four successful years at Butler. The year for Koppo Kappa Gamma was very happy and prosperous. 158 Row 1: Judd, Badger, Beck, Carr, Cramer, Freeman, Homrrer, Hostetter.

Numbered among its charter members are Miss Emily Helming oi the Butler University faculty, and the late Mrs. Demarchus Brown, famous world traveler and lecturer. From the time of its or- ganization it has been active in all campus affairs and has cooperated with the faculty and school in every possible way. The Pi Beta Phi social season was opened with the preference dinner which was held at the chapter house. The new pledges received as favors, brace- lets from the Arrowcroft Shop in Gatlinburg, Tennessee. The pledges were introduced to the campus at a formal open house October 4. After the hlomecoming gome an open house was held for the guests and students. The annual Barn Dance was held November 7 at the chapter house. The decorations were carried out in corn husks and pumpkins. The senior class entertained the chapter with a Christmas party after which gifts were ex- changed. The Christmas dance was the first formal dance given by the chapter. It was held December 18. The new year began with the Freshman Rose dance which had as its queen, Janet Mitchell. This is the fourteenth out of sixteen such elections Indiana Gamma chapter has won. Indiana Gamma chapter has entertained sailors from the Signal School at the fieldhouse with Wed- nesday night socials. Many of the girls are taking part in numerous activities in accordance with the war effort. These activities include such things as Red Cross knitting, blood donors, nurses aide, canteen work and U.S.O. Pi Beta Phi has as one of its projects a Settlement School which is located at Gatlinburg, Tennessee and was founded February 12, 1912. The school and the industry connected with the settlement is the support of at least one hundred families in the mountain community. The Jennie Nichol Memorial FHospitai, named for one of the founders, is used as a dental, medical, and surgical clinic for the community. The handmade products of the mountain people are sold at the Arrowcroft Shop in Gatlinburg. Indiana Gamma chapter of Pi Beta Phi was well represented in campus honoraries this year.

The fraternity was chartered as a legal corporation by the Virginia State Legislature on March 1 5, 1902. Today there are 79 chapters of Zeta Tau Alpha which are located throughout the United States and Canada, thus making it an international fraternity. The Butler chapter, Alpha Delta, was installed on the Irvington Campus in June of 1920 with Dr. May Ag nes Hopkins as the installing officer. Among the notable and prominent women who are members of Zeta Tau Alpha are Faith Baldwin, novelist; Gina Branscomb, Canadian composer and conductor; and Betty Grable. The social year was begun with the preference dinner at the Marott hlotel where ribbons were presented to the new pledges. An informal social was held during the first semester for members of the chapter and their guests. Zeta Tau Alpha had an exchange dinner with each of the fraternities on campus. The annual Christmas party was held in the form of a slumber party at which members of the chapter exchanged gifts. During the second semester four tea dances were held on Saturday afternoons at the chapter house. Men of the Army Air Crew stationed at Butler University were the guests of the chapter. The advisory board entertained the Alpha Delta chapter with a Pride of Our Hearts party on February 17, 1943. Rollerland Skating Rink was the scene of a party sponsored by the Zeta Tau Alpha pledge class. The climax of the social activities of the year was a spring formal dance, the motif of which was the white violet, flower of the fraternity. In all chapters of Zeta Tau Alpha candlelight services were held on October 1 5th honoring the national founders. Alpha Delta s plans for building a new home were postponed as a result of the war. But a new house was chosen by the chapter and shown to the public at open house on October 18, 1942. In March of 1943 Alpha Delta was proud to receive its province president, Mrs. James K. Gardner. This visit directly followed mid-term initiation at which Virginia Esten received honor initiation because of her high scholastic average. The officers of the active chapter for the year were: Bettie Hendrix, president; Dorothy Morris, vice-president; Virginia Davy, secretary; Jane Gibson, treasurer; Irene Anderson, historian; and Barbara Peacock, rush chairman. The pledge officers were Roberta Morse, president; Martha Demaree, vice-president; Wilma Weaver, secretary, and Lee Whitehall, treasurer.

The Butler chapter was one of the mother chapters along with the University of Cincinnati and Miami University. The purpose of Trianon, embodied in the four-fold principle — democracy, fellowship, scholarship, and service — is to foster democratic ideals on the university campus. The yellow-gold Trianon pin has a chevron-like base set with four pearls and three blue sapphires. On the cluster of peaks arising from the base is embodied a white gold T . Above the T is a Tiffany set diamond. The Trianon motto is: We unite to Build. The colors are blue and gold and the sunburst rose is the flower. Lois Lichtsinn guided the members through a successful year. Donnie Douglas served as vice- president, Dorothy Elder, recording secretary; Winifred Davis, corresponding secretary; La Verne Ostermeyer, treasurer; Margaret Meushaw, marshal, and Virginia Hartman, rush captain. The annual Trianon convention was held in Indianapolis at the Hotel Lincoln during Thanks- giving vacation. The convention was concluded with a banquet, after which, the delegates enter- tained soldiers from the Finance Replacement Training Center at Fort Benjamin Harrison. Trianon had the honor of ranking among the social organizations as tops in scholarship. Kathleen Shockley was elected to Phi Kappa Phi, Donnie Douglas was a member of Chimes and Gwendolyn Brock was a member of Spurs. Trianon girls were also represented in Phi Chi Nu, Kappa Delta Pi, Pi Epsilon Phi, Tau Kappa Alpha, Kappa Beta, Theto Sigma Phi, Kappa Tau Alpha and W.A.A.

The Association participated in social service, political, and war activities on campus and con- tributed to the scrap drive, cheer drive, and victory book campaign. Highlights of B.I. A. social activities were a hike and wiener roast held in October, the tradi- tional Christmas party, a spring outing and picnic, and many informal socials.

The group this year found it necessary to curtail many of its activities as a result of World War II. The principle activities of the year were a wiener roast held in the fall and the Palm Sunday Com- munion breakfast. The war also hod its effect on membership. Two of the club s presidents were called to the armed forces during the year. J. Robert Dietz, U.S.N., was succeeded by James Wehlage now in the army. He in turn was succeeded by Henry Kuenn who was elected to finish the rest of the year. One of the more active members, Tom Broden, also joined the army. Miss Sina Faye Fowler served as the faculty sponsor and was assisted in guiding the club throughout the year by Father John Hallom, pastor of St. Thomas Aquinas parish, who acted in the capacity of chaplain. In addition to the three presidents other officers for the year were Deete McGrath, vice-president; Mary Helen Cain, recording secretory,- Joanne Greene financial secretary, and Bernard Sifferlen, treasurer. The Newman club was glad to again be of service to the university through the activities of its mem- bers. ■ ' ■i ' ' liMm I MoLde to- Butler mue iAdtu ' %u ima UJa i limed.
