The campus, he beauty for which it is remembered. jmained the inevitable lines.  ffl IT. Rl 1 1 1 Both on and off the campus, ours was a year of precedent. Harry was elected in the face of what seemed to be overwhelming odds. After all night sessions by radios, many of us flocked to the nearest news medium in the early morning to see if the miracle was still happening. The terrific weight of the falling polls all but broke the backs of heretofore praised professional prognosticators. We had just become accustomed to longer skirts, and now had to amend our tastes to accept the short hair cuts of the fair sex. Certainly not to be over- looked was the advent of the schmoo, the omnipresent, lovable little creature from Dogpatch, whose sole mission seemed to be the better- ment of humankind. (Besides furnishing butter and eggs, a schmoo, when split lengthwise, made excellent building material.) We made a lot of adjustments duri ng the year, but by far the most difficult was the acceptance of the Kinsey Report. The psychology department came to our aid with a report on a report on the Kinsey Report, which was highly thought of by the student body. Some of us had the opportunity to meet noted visitors to the city, and a few got interviews, and took pictures. The dignitaries ranged from burlesque queens to the President. And all year long fellows whistled, girls hummed tunes that rose and faded; and we all agreed that a Slow Boat to China sounded like a good deal. ' ■- V Falling into line in the passing parade of memories are the faculty ... as diversified in appearance and personality as the classes they taught. Behind desks and before blackboards we thought of them as animated text books. Over coffee and under blue football skies we knew them as people. We polished their apple, cribbed their tests, slept through their lectures, cut their classes, and laughed when we got away with it. Yet we respected them. For eventually we realized that our tricks weren ' t so new and clever. They had been used by thousands of students in hundreds of schools, and were known by actual practice to the very profs we sought to deceive. We saw most of our profs three times a week, and listened to them for one-hundred and fifty minutes of eternity. But there were times when the bell rang long before we expected it . . . during exams, and during some of those lectures that departed from the usual dreary, dry, dogmatic discourse. And always we ' ll remember the faculty in caps and gowns on class day. To the dismay of many bald-headed vets and married men who were attending school to get an education, Butler did have its tradi- tions. Dusty shoes and burr trimmed pants walked side by side along the paths that border the canal. The old bridge not far from Sweeney Chapel creaked in its rusty age as couple after couple peered over its edge at their image in the water below, just as they had since Butler moved to Fairview. The traditional Phi Delt-Sigma Chi chariot race was accompanied as usual by a traditional victory for the Phi Delts; and the lovely queens, chosen from each of the houses, displayed their charm as the traditional trophy was awarded. One custom that will not soon be forgotten, at least by the transgressors, is the tradition of Senior Walk. More than once, volumes of ice cold water have cascaded onto the heads of egotistical under-classmen who feel that the sanctity of Senior Walk should also be known to them. The Iron Key helped main- tain an old rivalry between our school and Wabash, and, as the key would indicate, old Alma Mater did all right. The coeds in their jeans (tight), and the eds in their yellow cords (dirty); the rhinie pots that the freshmen failed to earn the right to discard, the Butler Bulldog . . . could we forget these? wow COUHS Politics rule the world — and Butler is included. Whether it be getting a grade or getting a date, politics always rears its head. Many of us found an outlet simply by sitting over the coffee cups, fanning smoke, and expounding our theories on what would have to be done in Washington if the perpetual turmoil were ever to unwind. Still others of us occupied ourselves with politics en the Butler scene. It may now seem unimportant, but once it was uppermost in the minds of many. The Student council supervised those trying encounters called elections. Floods of propaganda, crowded polls, beautiful girls bearing election day smiles and sandwich boards, contrasted to sober, passive faces on adamant students who insisted that it was all nonsense, characterized a typical election day. The confused ordeal had beccme more confused as the independents showed strength for a second year; then the tradi- tional caucuses joined, and the battle rolled on. Remember the Ware voting system? It left in ' 48. i ► v r l A common term around any campus is activity. Many students seek them . . . others shun them. Regardless, most of us, from the stu- dent body president to the not-a-joiner type, belonged to some campus organization. Some of us joined by request of our profs, the purpose being to apple polish. Others joined by request of our fra- ternity, the object being initiation. But most of us joined because of the decided value of a certain amount of extra-curricjlar activity. Whether a member of the band, the various clubs, honoraries, profes- sional fraternities, or publication staffs, something was to be gained by meeting and planning and working with fellow students who had similar interests. And these organizations accomplished much good. One group succeeded in effecting the installation of a cross-town bus for the convenience of north side students, and another sponsored a con- test for new yells for the cheering section. Nor were these exceptions. There was a lighter side too: card parties, dances, picnics ... we worked and played together. n ■ 9 Wft - f ■• a %i . S - k We did love our social life. Defined, that was the time spent during our college life when we weren ' t studying, and knew we should have been. It included, of course, the hops, proms, cotillions, balls, and mixers, which for simplicity, we will call dances. Recognition should be made of the long hours devoted by many to the thankless job of prepar- ation and planning, and just plain hard work that made many of our social events possible. Anything from horseback riding to swimming, tobogganing (when we had snow), movies, stage plays, and the various variations from textbooks were always welcome. We had to eat (and drink) and from this necessity and the desire for social intercourse many of the local drive-ins and restaurants (and bars) became familiar sites to us. The little details (all of which will not be related here) were what made our social life a success, and were the incidents that are generally remembered. The warmth of friendship, a witty remark, an incongruent incident, excitement, relaxation, worry, work, a thousand emotions known only to individuals . . . these made up our social life. We can ' t record them for you. We wish we could. . a 1 1 Of course, college would not have been complete without the sports. (This does not refer to the kind so readily discerned in the halls and campus club.) Butler ' s athletic program was a source of pleasure and entertainment to thousands of people . . . both in and out of school. To those who actively participated, there was a keen interest based largely en competition, cooperation, fair play, and healthy living. Those who participated by giving moral (and often physical) support, reflected a school spirit that embodied fun, fascination, and loyalty, without which college would not have been college. The informal get- togethers, the practice sessions, the long trips on trains, sprinkled with verbal appraisals and controversies, contributed toward the end of athletics as surely as did the encounters themselves. When a Butler fan thinks of sports, he automatically thinks of the ever-loyal, ever-lovin ' band and cheer leaders. Their unceasing variations in style, stunts, and arrangements are anticipated at half-time. They act as the magnet that pulls together thousands of individuals into a unified student body with but one objective ... to win. , i  , J $,? 2 Fd • ■ That old green barn, which had affectionately been called the Campus Club, had served us faithfully. It was small, and usually crowded, but we loved it. The lack of bridge tables was exceeded only by the lack of chairs. We might have thought that the situation was bad, but when the inadequate edifice burned, and we were herded into two halls adjoining the cafeteria, which, of necessity, was to be our temporary campus club, we saw the number of bridge and euchre players halve, and the supply of kibitzers double. Then came the scoop! The Collegian, blazoning a flamboyant EXTRA, announced that the Board had said ' yes ' to the new Union building. The ground was broken amid the pomp that should attend such a memorable occasion. And under the scrutiny of a student body which could scarcely believe what it was seeing, the cornerstone, vested with the appropriate articles, was cemented into the key position that it now maintains. Our long wished for Union building was to become a reality. We watched it grow from a small hole to a large one; from a few stark beams to a few unfinished walls . . . and we continued to watch. tf- S (C. ;..7 j- tsmv ax -3 H-K + o Through the smoke in the Campus Club, the outsider sees us engrossed in a bridge game. The steps of Jell Hall seem always crowded with loafing students, involved in the weighty matter of Saturday night dates. The uninitiated knowingly smile as they see the letters that are written during the limbo of night classes, but, though these activities are certainly a part of Butler life, there is another phase of campus- ology about which we are a little more serious. This aspect revolves around exams, blue books, notebook paper, leaky fountain pens, pencil stubs, overloaded ash trays, Barnes ' outlines, cribs, empty coke bottles, and finally, that report they send home to our par- ents. . . . Parts of our days, and most of our nights are spent over scribbled notes and muddled text books. And even the most lax student spends many hours each semester in the library, searching the card file, ques- tioning the librarian, leafing dusty books in the stacks. But we ' re not complaining. . . . We sort of like that feeling of accomplishment that comes with a com- pleted assignment. § ; xt;;.-- -: .: •;;. r • : ...i. •as V — fai . : = ' ! L_ Row I: Capt. King, Lt. Col. Tarter, Lt. Haley. Row 2: Tech. Sgt. Tworle, Lt. Price, Tech. Sgt. Jones, Staff Sgt. Mondor. R. O. T. C. Uniforms and brass buttons are back on campus for the first time since the war, with the new Butler University Air Corp R. O. T. C. unit. Temoorarily housed in the basement of Jordan Hall, the teaching staff of the new unit conducts business in the most military of atmospheres. Their association with the university is an ever- present reminder of the war that is just over and the instability of the world today. And most important to us, its addition is another step in the expansion of the Butler curriculum. Classes, classes, classes . . . most of the days and some of the nights are spent in classes. Within the walls of Jordan Hall, wisdom in abundance is imparted to many eager ears, and some eager minds; and busy hands practice in labs the theories of classrooms. There are times when thoughts wander, and pencils idly doodle on the margin of lecture notes. But most of the time, minds are concentrated on the material at hand. Bells ring, students pour forth into the maelstrom of hallways. Cigarettes are lighted, smoke rolls thickly, feet hurry along stairways, and again a beil rings. Class- room doors are shut by sober-faced professors. The student sighs, slips down in his cear, and opens his notebook. The courses offered in the College of Business Administration are de- signed to provide training in the methods, techniques, and principles underlying modern business and journalism, as a foundation for careers in these fields. The Department of Business Administration and the Department of Journalism are the two main divisions of the college and are headed, respectively, by Dr. M. O. Ross and Dr. DeForest O ' Dell. Mr. Harold Van Cleave is the acting Assistant Dean of the school, replacing Dr. M. G. Bridenstine who resigned last August. The life insurance division of the college, now under the guidance of Mr. H. C. Graebner, has made Butler one of the major schools in the field of life insurance training. Each year the Journalism Department publishes the school paper, The Collegian, sponsors the Christmas Cheer Drive, and acts as host to Indiana high schools for a Journalism Field Day. This year Butler students witnessed and participated in the first Religious Emphasis Week conducted in the history of the university. This inspiring program was only one of the many projects of the students in the School of Religion. The school, whose purpose it is to train young men and women for the ministry and other religious services, was established in 1924 and has become one of the country ' s largest and best equipped sources of spiritual instruction. Graduate students in the school, besides helping to conduct daily devo- tional services at Sweeney Chapel, often are given congregations of their own. Dean O. L. Shelton has been the director of the school since 1944 and plays a stimulating part in many of the all-school convocations held throughout the year. The University College aims to develop in each student a background of knowledge and a mental and moral discipline that is basic for all walks of life. Its specific objectives are to offer competent preparation for students who intend to enter one of the senior colleges and to provide a two-year terminal program that is comprehensive and integrated for those students who are not seeking a degree. Dr. Harry E. Crull has been named director of the University College, replacing Dr. P. M. Bail who resigned to accept the presidency of the University of Omaha. Dr. Crull is a former dean of Park College and a graduate of the University of Illinois. In accepting the directorship of this college, he assumes the responsibility of supervising the activities and studies of all freshman and sophomore students. The student who enrolls in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences has an opportunity to gain a wealth of knowledge from the oldest school within the university. Since 1855, its faculty and curriculum have made available to stu- dents both the interpretation of human experience as expressed in language, literature, and the fine arts, and opportunities for specialization and creative effort. The ccllege strives to teach the scientific method of learning by exact and systematic thinking, a moral and ethical evaluation of human activity, and a thorough knowledge of man and the universe. Dean of the school is Dr. R. C. Frie:ner. Dr. Friesner has a long record of service to the university for he has been a member of the Butler faculty for thirty years. He became Head of the Department of Botany in 1947 and has served two years as Dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. Because of America ' s ever-growing need for teachers, the College of Education holds a more important place in the university program than ever before. With the training of students for positions of teachers, supervisors, and administrators as its major purpose, it offers a curriculum which allows a student to major in elementary, secondary, or physical education and obtain a Bachelor of Science degree. A graduate student may earn an M. S. or M. A. in the school. This year the College of Education operated under its new dean, Dr. J. Hartt Walsh, formerly on the faculty of Washington University. Dean Walsh has done extensive administrative and educational work with the U. S. Army and Navy. He has taught in public schools and universities for fourteen years and has successfully completed his first year of administration at Butler. COLLEGE OF PHARMACY Cooperation with the pharmacists of the state in an effort to main- tain and elevate standards of the profession of pharmacy is the fundamental purpose of Butler ' s newest college. Established in 1945 by merger with the Indianapolis College of Pharmacy, the school plays a prominent part in the development of pharmaceutical education. Through its curriculum, students are trained to prepare, compound and dispense drugs and medicines; furnish sickroom supplies; distribute insecticides, commercial poisons, and other danger- ous drugs and chemicals; make analytical and microscopic examinations; prepare diagnostic reagents; and furnish health information in his community. Dean Edward H. Niles, who himself is a graduate of the school from the class of 1912, heads the college. Dr. Niles and his staff are anxiously looking forward to the time when the school will be moved from Market Street to a new Science building on the Fairview campus. ARTHUR JORDAN CONSERVATORY A close affiliatio n exists between Butler University and the Arthur Jordan Conservatory. A joint committee of members of the faculties of the two institu- tions administers the details of the general affiliation agreement. Butler ' s Department of Music of the College of Liberal Arts is made up of faculty mem- bers from the Conservatory. Courses in Music Education, Voice, Piano, Organ, Drama, Dance, Orchestral Instruments, and Radio are offered at Arthur Jordan. Accredited by the National Association of Schools of Music and the Indiana State Department of Public Instruction, the Conservatory is authorized to confer both Bachelor and Master degrees. Dr. Lloyd F. Sunderman is director of the school, and he is assisted in his administrative duties by Gerald V. Carrier, business manager; and Stanley O. Norris, registrar. JOHN HERRON ART INSTITUTE The John Herron Art Institute, directly affiliated with Butler University, offers training in four professional fields of art. To Butler students, the most important of the many courses offered are those connected with teacher training. Supplemented with other courses at Butler, these four and five year programs lead to the Bachelor of Art Education degree. Staff members of the school are practicing artists, and graduates from the school may be found in outstanding positions throughout the state and nation. In addition to the displays in East Jordan Hall, several valuable exhibits have been on display to the public at the institute ' s museum this year. Among the collections were: Contemporary American Paintings, Invitational Club Exhibit of Pictorial Photography, Etchings by Goya, and Early European Tapestries. EVENING DIVISION The Division of Evening Courses, under the direction of Dr. George F. Leonard, plays a vital role in the educational program of Butler University. Dr. Leonard, in cooperation with the deans of the colleges and department heads, organizes all evening courses to be given and supervises the work done in them. Begun fifty years ago, the Evening Division came into existence as now constituted in 1930. Enrollments have increased steadily each year, and an ever-growing variety of courses is offered. The opportunity of attending night classes is not restricted to full-time students. Many fully employed persons attend, as well as many teachers who desire to work for a higher degree or refresh their knowledge of certain subjects. The Evening Division makes a worthy contribution not only to the growth of the university, but also to the intellectual growth of the community as a whole. SUMMER SCHOOL Students, teachers, and professional people alike take advantage of the wide variety of courses offered in the special summer school sessions at Butler. Summer work is divided into a pre-summer, post-summer, and regular summer sessions. In addition to these study periods, there is a longer Veteran ' s Semester in which a maximum of 12 hours may be earned. A summer session has been in operation at the university since 1905. It is under the present directorship of Dr. George F. Leonard. Students enrolling in summer school may take courses in the University College, or the Colleges of Liberal Arts and Sciences, Education, Business Administration, Religion, and Pharmacy. DR. M. O. ROSS As the prudent and progressive leader of Butler University, President M. O. Ross forms a strong bond between administration and the student body. Ad- ministrative duties draw heavily on the time and energy of this stately gentleman, but he is never too busy to teach a class, have a private conference with some student, or attend the campus open-houses each fall. A man who achieves, Dr. Ross has added the University College and the College of Pharmacy since he came to Butler in 1942 and has initiated an ex- tensive building program. He is the acting dean of the College of Business Administration and the chairman of the Administrative Council, the coordinating agency of all departments of the university which determines general regulations in the administrative organization. With foresight and unfaltering devotion, a rela- tively small group of conscientious men and women direct the university along a road of growth and achievement. The most recent manifestation of plans for expansion made by the Board of Directors is the new Student Union building which has been under construction since the ground was first broken in an impressive ceremony May 3, 1948. For over 60 years, Hilton U. Brown has been a faithful member of the Board of Directors and now serves as its sagacious president. It is largely through his steadfast interest in the welfare of the university and its students, that Butler has grown into one of the finest educational institutions in the Middle West. Richard T. James, ex-lieutenant governor of In- diana, has been appointed Vice-President and Treas- urer of Butler University. At this post, Mr. James will be continuing a career of public service, for he was formerly a member of the House of Representatives, deputy secretary of state, and state auditor. L GRAY BURDIN Butler ' s Dean of Men is an ex-officio B man, B standing for Busy. L. Gray Burdin not only retains office as Dean of Men, but also serves as Director of Employment and chairman of the Men ' s Advisory, Public Occasions, Scholarship, and Student Placement commit- tees. Students and faculty alike look to his office for a solution to their housing problems, and Dean Burdin spends many hours contacting townspeople for this pur- pose. Amazing as it may seem, Mr. Burdin still has time to act in a teaching capacity as Head of the Department of Speech in the School of Religion. ARTHUR S. KENDALL As bursar, Arthur S. Kendall plays an important role in keeping Butler University running smoothly. Mr. Kendall performs the tasks of purchasing agent for the university, accounting for the bookstore and cafeteria, director of the post office, business manager of athletics, and chairman of the university auditing committee. Also, on the capable shoulders of Mr. Kendall rests the burden of planning the budget of the Drift as the staff ' s financial advisor. Both organizations and individuals often solicit Mr. Kendall for advice and counsel. JOHN T. BARNETT Publicity given to the radio, newspapers, and o ther publications on both academic and athletic matters of the school is released by the Office of Public Relations. John T. Barnett acts as Butler ' s public relations manager. Mr. Barnett serves on the Admissions and Registration, Athletics, and Campus committees. He also acts as a responsible assistant to President Ross in the everyday routine of the university. As a result of his diligent efforts, Butler University has gained much added prestige throughout the Middle West. DR. ELIZABETH B. WARD In charge of scheduling and supervising all social functions such as teas, dances, and exchange dinners at Butler is Dr. Elizabeth B. Ward, Dean of Women. One of the many positions held by Dr. Ward is that of chair- man of the Women ' s Advisory Board. She also serves on the Scholarship, Student Affairs, Student Placement, and Student Publications committees of the university. Under Dean Ward ' s competent supervision the spring and fall rushing activities of the sororities take place with success and comparative ease. DR. C. R. MAXAM Butler ' s efficient Registrar, Dr. C. R. Maxam, probably has more connection with the academic welfare of students than any other administrative officer. As Director of Admissions he adjusts transferring high school and college credits of all students when they enter the university. He interviews incoming veteran students, as Chairman of the Veteran ' s Council, and evaluates their military service credits. In accordance with his position as Registrar, Dr. Maxam serves on the Administrative Coun- cil, which directs the academic program of the university. In still another capacity, that of Director of Placement, he finds teaching and business jobs for graduating students. GEORGE A. SCHUMACHER In 1937 George A. Schumacher took the position as Alumni Secretary at Butler. Thanks to the commend- able work done by Mr. Schumacher, active alumni mem- bership has greatly increased and has been organized into alumni clubs. Active alumni receive, monthly, The Butler Alumnus, which is edited by the alumni office. All literature sent to high school seniors and all inquiries received concerning Butler are handled through this office. Mr. Schumacher is also an assistant professor of English and instructs classes at the College of Pharmacy. gp l H Butler l nkersitf Mm pRom h ON GRADUATION DAY SENIOR CLASS For this, their final year at Butler, the seniors of 1949 chose Rex Van Trees as president; Bill Pace, vice-president; Virginia Rodman, secretary; and William Doig, treasurer. Throughout the year, the class held meetings and planned for their dance on June I I. Bill Osborne was appointed as dance chairman. On Founders ' Day, February 7, the seniors first appeared in their caps and gowns. Commencement, on June 13, cli- maxed the four years for the graduating class of 1949.

New officers elected at that time were Don Houston, president; Carlee Kennedy, vice-president; Barbara Finch, secretary; and William Tuteur, treasurer. On February 25, the class held the annual Freshmen Rose Dance in the Egyptian Room at the Murat. The crowned queen was presented with a trophy and the symbolic red roses.

Queens from every class, for the three big all- school dances, and the most ex- clusive affair of the year, the Senior Ball. Pictured on these pages are the girls voted by the men of their year to reign over that social event worked and planned for by the whole class. Due to the fact that the DRIFT went to press be- fore the three class balls of ' 49 could be covered, we have includ- ed this year ' s winner of the Fresh- man Rose Queen election, along with the three big queens from last year. They are Miss Julianna Hamp, Kappa Kappa Gamma, who reign- ed with charm and loveliness over her dancing subjects during the ' 48 Junior Prom; Miss Betty Lou Eisenhut, Delta Gamma, Queen of her own realm in the Egyptian Room for the Sophomore Cotil- lion; and Miss Betty Casler, I. S. A. ' s triumphant candidate for Freshman Rose Queen. Pi Beta Phi pledge, Char Day, brought to her organization its eighteenth representative Fresh- man Rose Queen, out of twenty years of freshman dances. In 1929, Butler ' s first freshman queen was a Pi Phi, and the organization was proud of lovely Queen Char, as she was crowned in the Indiana Ballroom for the twentieth anni- versary of the freshman dance. ■ EN iH J % ™ H slli r;«y Row I: Brown, Rowe, Lytle, Bond, Roland, Gilbreath, Cochran.

STUDENT COUNCIL Student Government, not directly supervised by the administration or faculty, falls under the jurisdiction of the Student Council. All class and queenship elections are conducted by the Council along with the administration of all campus organiza- tions except social fraternities and sororities. Student representatives on many faculty committees are nominated by the Council. The Council consists of 14 members elected by the classes they represent: six seniors, five juniors, and three sophomores. The two sophomores receiving the most votes fill two-year terms as do the three members who are elected juniors. . The other sophomore and the three elected seniors serve for one year only. The president of the Council is also president of the student body. Patricia Bond served as president this year. Bill MeLeod served as secretary, and Patricia Rowe as chairman of the election committee. Other members were Al Reed, John Hansgen, Byron Fry, Rex Van Trees, Bill Pace, Mary Jane Rolen, Ann Lytle, Norma Brown, John Ellis, Polly Cochran, and Gratia Gilbreath. Dr. A. Dale Beeler, Mr. Gabriel Ofiesh, and Miss Marguerite Lamar acted as faculty advisors of the Student Council. WOMEN ' S ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION The Women ' s Athletic Association, sponsored by the Physical Education department, has as its aim the betterment of the mental and physical health of women students. The Association, which is better known as the W.A.A., sponsored such group sports as basketball, soft ball, volley ball, and field hockey. As the season ended for each of these sports, a plaque was awarded to the winning team. The association also sponsored individual sports such as tennis, table tennis , badminton, and archery, offered in both doubles and singles. The W.A.A. sponsored a dinner in the spring of 1948 at which plaques for winning teams and persons, were presented, and a cup was presented to the social organization which attained the most points in competition during the past year. The organization is indebted to Magdalene A. Davis for her cooperation and encouragement as faculty sponsor, and to Jean Fine for her excellent leadership as President. BLUE KEY The Blue Key, national activities and scholastic honorary fraternity, was originated at the University of Florida in 1925. Its chief concern was, as it is now, service to the university. Just one year after its national foundation, a Blue Key chapter was initiated on the Butler campus. Since that time, the fraternity has grown to include seventy-eight chapters throughout the nation. Membership in the Blue Key is composed of upperclassmen and the Butler chapter limits its membership to men of the senior class. Members are chosen on the basis of high scholastic achievement, participation in school activities and organiza- tions, service to the university, and popularity. In cooperation with the Scarlet Quill, Blue Key annually-co-sponsors the entire homecoming week-end festivities. The organization also sponsors a yearly banquet for members of the football team and staff, at which they make awards to deserving players. Blue Key has endeavored to revive Butler traditions which were abandoned during the war. Officers for the year were Bob Ritchart, president; Lloyd Olcott, vice-president; Byron Fry, secretary; Al Reed, treasurer; Ralph Gaston, publicity. Faculty sponsor for the year, Mr. George Schumacher. Joanna Jennings, Joan Pyle, Miss Thornbrough, Margery Little, Joanna Heiney. SCARLET QUILL Scarlet Quill, the senior women ' s scholastic honorary organization, has been active on campus for twenty-seven years. Each year new members are capped with mortar boards at the annual Spring Sing, and are chosen from junior coeds outstanding in scholarship, character, personality, and participation in extra-curricular activities. A 3.3 accumulative point average is the grade requirement for membership. White crew hats trimmed with a scarlet quill is the traditional garb of distinc- tion for the organization. Identification pins are small gold quills. The purpose of Scarlet Quill is to foster valuable university activities and to aid in the development of leadership and responsibility among its members. Gold cups are presented by this group to the sorority and fraternity having the most original house decorations for Homecoming. Lambda Chi Alpha and Alpha Chi Omega won the cups again this year. The annual Homecoming dance is co- sponsored by Scarlet Quill and Blue Key. Each spring the sophomore girl who h as earned the highest scholastic average during the first three semesters of her university work receives a one semester scholar- ship award from Scarlet Quill on Honor Day. Marjorie Little was president of the Butler chapter this year aided by Joan Pile, vice-president; Joanna Heiney, secretary; and Joanna Jennings, treasurer. Miss Emma L. Thornbrough is the faculty sponsor. SPHINX The Butler chapter of Sphinx, junior men ' s hon- orary, greeted the 1948-49 year with great activity. The new high in scholarship on campus brought Sphinx the largest membership in its history. In one of the early meetings of the year, a quorum of members elected John Martin to lead them through the coming year. Martin was ably assisted by Harry Farmer, vice-president; Paul Tiernan, secretary; Herman Wichser, treasurer. Sphinx carried through their share of the Home- coming activities by sponsoring the annual Freshman- Sophomore fight, which was won again by the Sopho- mores CHIMES Chimes, junior women ' s honorary organization, initiates twelve outstanding sophomore women into its membership each year. Chimes members traditionally wear gold chime pendants as an identifying mark. The organization, in addition to this year ' s pledging and Initiation activities, sponsored an in- formal tea to acquaint women transfer students with campus activities. Members also decorated the goal posts for the Homecoming game. Officers this year were: Ellen Mighell and Pa- tricia Pearson, president for first and second semester respectively; Joan Freyn, vice-president; Patricia Rowe, secretary; Marjorie Bauer, treasurer, and Mrs. Magde- lene Davis was a most gracious faculty sponsor.

SIGMA DELTA CHI Sigma Delta Chi, national professional journalism fraternity, has been repre- sented on the Butler campus since 1926. This year the Butler chapter reached its greatest strength when it initiated 1 3 men to bring the total to 30. During the year the chapter took part in a state meeting of Indiana Sigma Delta Chi chapters on the Indiana University campus at Bloomington, initiated 15 professional members representing newspapers all over the state, and presented its annual Blanket Hop, honoring senior football players. At the Blanket Hop copies of The Bullegian, the chapter ' s annual humor paper, were sold. The $1 12.57 collected was donated to the Bob Hamilton Fund. Hal Mcln- tyre and his band played for the dance which was held in the Egyptian Room of the Murat Temple. Ed Irwin, official delegate, and seven other chapter members represented the chapter at the fraternity ' s annual convention in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, in November. George Leamnson was president during the year, Bill Pace served as vice- president, Bob Darmer was secretary, and Keith Haymond held the treasurer ' s position. Dr. DeForest O ' Dell and Prof. George Miller served as chapter advisers. LAMBDA KAPPA SIGMA Lambda Kappa Sigma, National Pharmaceu- tical sorority, was founded in 1913 at the Massachu- setts College of Pharmacy by Ethel J. Heath. It has as its objective the promotion of happiness and useful- ness of its members and the creating of a center of enjoyment, friendship and culture for women in pharmacy. Phi chapter was installed at the Indianapolis College of Pharmacy June 8, 1938. Members must have a B average in all academic work and possess the qualities of leadership and cooperation. Officers include: Eileen O ' Brien, president; Audrey Mathers, vice-president; Vera Grob, recording secretary; Imogene Piper, corresponding secretary; Martha Wheeler, treasurer. KAPPA PSI Kappa Psi, pharmaceutical fraternity, was founded at the Medical College of Virginia, December 15, 1879. The organization was the first Greek letter society established in a college of pharmacy in the United States. Membership is limited to men major- ing in pharmacy. A national organization, Kappa Psi has 89 chap- ters. The Agora, an esoteric publication which also contains the directory, is published every five years, while the Mask, a periodical, is issued quarterly. Beta Upsilon chapter of Kappa Psi was installed at the Indianapolis College of Pharmacy, in February, 1930. The chapter is now one of the most outstanding of all Kappa Psi chapters. Members of the College of Pharmacy faculty holding memberships are Dean E. H. Niles, Prof. E. J. Rowe, Prof. A. A. Harwood, and Mr. J. Antonides. KAPPA KAPPA PSI Kappa Kappa Psi is a national honorary frater- nity created for college and university bandsmen. The Alpha Beta chapter, established on the Butler campus in 1929, is open to students who display outstanding musical, marching and scholastic ability. With the purpose of developing closer fellow- ship among members of the band, the organization aids the director in special services, arranges social func- tions, outings, banquets, and dances. Included in the membership of the fraternity are Charles A. Henzie, faculty sponsor and advisor. The organization was led in the year ' s activities by Lloyd E. Tatlock. TAU BETA SIGMA Tau Beta Sigma is a national bandwomen ' s hon- orary. Its purpose is to promote interest in the band and friendship among the band members, as well as having the performance of good music as its highest objective. Tau Beta Sigma and Kappa Kappa Psi work together in planning social events and the annual banquet-dance for the entire band. At this function the outstanding bandwoman of the year is awarded a medal.

ALPHA PHI OMEGA Alpha Phi Omega, national service fraternity, was founded December 16, 1925, at Lafayette College, Easton, Pennsylvania. Alpha Tau Chapter was initiated on the Butler campus in 1936. The fraternity is open to all male students who have been or are still Boy Scouts, who have a 2.0 grade average, and wish to give service to the school, community, and nation. Heading the list of service projects is the annual pickup of Easter Crippled Children collection cans for the Marion County Society for Crippled, Inc. In 1948, Alpha Tau chapter picked up more than 500 cans with over $1,000 in them. An- other function of the chapter on the Butler campus is ushering for many of the all school convocations.

Under the direction of Charles A. Henzie, the Butler Band once again ex- ecuted skillful maneuvers in marchtime, swingtime, and dancetime. Hal Wilkens, drum major, ably led the 96 musicians, the 8 girls of the color guard, and the 5 drum majorettes through their difficult paces. Ideas for the formations used during the foot- ball season were usually thought up by band members themselves. These ideas were carefully worked out and the results were intricate designs formed by Henzie ' s boys in blue. The standard B U was used on the field throughout the season. New forma- tions used by the band this year included an outline of the state of Indiana, a clock with moving hands, and a covered wagon with revolving wheels. Besides playing for the five Bulldog home games, the band journeyed to Evansville and Kalama- zoo to participate in half-time festivities at those schools. During the basketball season the band was more in evidence by virtue of its music than by its marching. In the limited space of the gym floor, stunts were used instead of formations. Other activities of the band this year were marching in the Homecoming parade and playing for pep sessions, Founder ' s Day, Honor Day, Bacca- laureate, and Commencement exercises. The band also caroled up and down the Fairview campus before Christmas vacation. The band ' s enthusiasm for their team was shown in their presentation of yells and music together. The Butler spirit was really brought out when the band struck up The War Song — so let ' s add a page or two for Butler ' s playing crew beneath the Hoosier sky. COLOR GUARD DRUM MAJORETTES The Butler Color Guard presented a colorful accompaniment to the band during the year. The girls marched with the band at each of its appearances, dressed in the traditional blue jackets and white skirts. Members of the group were chosen at tryouts. At the beginning of the basketball season, four more girls were chosen to perform with the band. They were Barbara Kidd, Jean Schleuter, Patty Cooper, and Palmer Ailing. Rehearsals were held daily at noon during the football season and three times a week when basket- ball reigned king. The color guard and the drum majorettes made their first appearance at the opening football game. This year they accompanied the band to the Bulldog games away from home at Evansville and Kalamazoo. Baton twirling and high-stepping marching forma- tions highlighted the performance of the girls at half- time of football games. During the basketball season, the drum major- ettes and color guard presented the colors before each game. This year the halftime antics of the girls included a Christmas number complete with wreaths and lights, a presentation of life in the Gay Nineties, and a South American scene. Drum majorettes and the color guard were chosen on the basis of appearance, scholarship, and marching ability. Judges at the tryouts were the drum major of the Butler band, the head of the color guard, and the head of the drum majorettes. The girls, with their scintillating rhythms and tricky steps, helped to make halftime more enjoyable. Mary Ann Hands, Diane Spenser, Virginia Wampler, Francis War- riner, Ann Vogler.

Cheer Leader Captain [Not in picture): Bob Robinson. BUTLER CHEER LEADERS The pep and spirit of the Butler cheer leaders is always in evidence whether the team makes a foul or a fumble, a touchdown or a basket. Besides leading their own stirring cheers, the cheer leaders cooperate with the band by leading their musical yells and songs. Pep sessions before games — remember the yelling at the Homecoming bonfire? — are always highlighted by the songs and cheers led by the girls and boys with the megaphones. This year at football games a special section was reserved for students who wanted to show that they were behind their team all the way by cheering as they never had before. Special cheering section tickets were issued through the Bursar ' s Office. With these tickets, students were entitled to some of the best seats in the Butler Bowl in exchange for loud and organized cheering. It takes a lot of pep and enthusiasm to get a crowd to cheer so that the yells rock the stands of the opposing side, but Butler ' s cheer leaders did it. And it takes a lot of school spirit to show the team that the students were always in back of them, but the cheer leaders got the crowd to do that, too.

BLUE BOOK To provide the answer to such questions as What ' s her phone number?, the Y. M. C. A. again published the BLUE BOOK, under the editorship of Rex Van Trees. The directory included the names, ad- dresses, and telephone numbers of students and faculty members, the names of the officers and the board of directors of the university, an office guide, a list of fraternities and sororities and their members, and a schedule for the coming year. Patti Donnely was associate editor of the book- let printed by the Butler University Print Shop. RHINIE GUIDE At the freshman convocation in September, prospective Butler students received free copies of the RHINIE GUIDE to help them in orientation. This guiding light contained the answers to many questions that a bewildered freshman might ask. Traditions at Butler, present and prospective buildings, the ad- ministration, and organizations and clubs were among the topics discussed in the RHINIE GUIDE. Serving as editor and associate editor of this publication printed by the Butler University Print Shop were Rex Van Trees and Marjean McKay, respectively. DICK THOMPSON, Editor HERMAN WICHSER, Business Manager ALICE ROBERTSON, Associate Editor ROYCE STOKES, Publicity Manager SHARON COLLINS, Layout Edit DRIFT From all the confusion that reigned for the better part of ' 48-49 emerged the Butler DRIFT. Masters of literary and pictorial art were kept busy trying to under- stand instructions and went crazy attempting to carry them out. On the busiest days — when deadlines had to be met — the staff and management of this year ' s book for posterity, frantically peeled celluloid from flash bulbs trying to collect their thoughts. Itinerant students stopping by the office on their way to pursuits of pleasure merely added to the general confusion end bewilderment of all concerned. The darkroom also served to attract quite a crowd — not only of photographers, but of curiosity seekers who wondered at the mysterious vats of bubbling water. The DRIFT office — the second home of the jour- nalists who worked in the lower regions of Jordan Hall — was characterized by clouds of flying dust (from dirt and rage), broken window panes, slow-working fluor- escent lights, flying flashbulbs, walking negatives that never could be found, and obsolete DRIFTS crashing to the floor. The latter was no doubt caused by last year ' s staff leaping from their journalistic graves. It was a year the staff will never forget, and through their efforts it is preserved in picture and paper. We wish to acknowledge the work of Tommy King on the sports pages, and of Joyce Pearson who wrote liners for the panels. They both did a fine job . . . well, we think so, anyway. Unfortunately, they and a few others were not present when staff pictures were taken. John Oliver, Shidl, Top: Carla Jean Stout, Joanna Heiney, Bill Pace, Jody Owens.

MSS MSS is sponsored by the English department of Butler University and is edited by students as a laboratory publication for writers. The magazine, now in its sixteenth year, is unique in its kind among stu- dent publications. Selection of material for each issue is accomplished in reading meetings held by the members of the freshman and upper class staffs. Manuscripts are submitted through representatives appointed in each composition class. Through this method the editors hope for quality as well as for variety through representation. Poetry and prose, both fiction and non-fiction, receive recognition in the publication. The present staff of the magazine is composed of the following members: Upper class staff: George Coffin, editor, George Fullen, Richard J. O. Greene, Evelyn Ham- mon, Diana Harvey, Joyce Hessler, Margaret Lanahan, Anne McDonnell, Frank Slupesky, Barbara Sims, Rex Van Trees, Patricia Welch, Herman Wichser, Allyn Wood. Freshman staff: George Fullen, editor, Patricia Andrews, James Beck, Harry Henderson, Ruth Jordan, Cy P. Jordan, Nell Kinzell, Alice McClelland, Kent Mecum, Joan Myers, Patrick J. Mahoney III, Wallace C. Smith, Suzanne Spiker. The Butler DRIFT this year, in the interest of the students, is a record of the happenings in, about, and around the Fairview campus from January, 1948 to January, 1949. This is being done so that all deadlines will be met, and consequently all students and faculty members will have their DRIFTS at the end of the spring semester. So if you recognize some of the pictures as some taken last year, and if you miss pictures of the Junior Prom and other events that hap- pened late in the school year, that is the reason. In bringing you a January to January book in- stead of a June to June annual, the DRIFT staff is delivering your copy to you on time so that you can enjoy it throughout the summer. pv 1 H -Wf imf. 9m jH TONY HINKLE Dean of Indiana Mentors Row I : Hauss, Guyer, Dietz, Schwomeyer. Row 2: Middlesworth, Relsler, Rabold, Hinkle, Walker. BUTLER ATHLETIC STAFF Butler ' s athletic staff for the 1948-49 season was a mixture of youth and experience. Athletic Director Paul D. (Tony) Hinkle, dean of Indiana coaches, began his twenty-eighth year as a Butler coach and his twentieth year as head basketball coach. His knowledge of all sports and his methods of handling the youths that make up the teams raised Butler to great heights in the sporting scene. Robert Dietz, former Butler basketball great, held down the same position he had last year as tennis coach and assistant basketball coach. Herb Schwomeyer kept busy this past season as intramural director, freshmen football coach, and freshmen basketball coach. Galvin Walker had his troubles rounding up a cross-country team but managed to uncover some fine talent. Coach Walker also handles indoor and outdoor track. Phil Reisler coached the varsity swimming squad and Jim Hauss took care of the golf team. Veteran Wally Middlesworth once again assisted Hinkle with the football team as backfield coach. Big John Rabold and Hauss were line coaches during the gridiron season. Dick Guyer, standout guard of the ' 47-48 squad, is assistant freshmen football coach and the youngest member of the athletic staff. GRID NOTES The 1948 Butler football team had power, speed, and experience and still Coach Tony Hinkle suffered his first losing season since becoming head football coach in 1935. Winning only three and losing five games, the Bulldogs failed to pick up a single victory in Mid-American conference play. The sched- ule was tough but injuries to several key players at the same time spelled defeat more than once. Indiana Central formed the first opposition for the Bulldogs and the Blue and White team showed signs of being a powerhouse by rolling over the Grey- hounds 68-7. Evansville ' s Purple Aces put up a tough fight before bowing 14-13 in the second game of the season. Then the bottom fell out of things for Coach Hinkle ' s boys. Western Reserve started things off with a 6-0 victory followed by a 7-0 win by Washington of St. Louis. Cincinnati made it three straight defeats for the Bulldogs with a 16-7 win. Butler picked up their third and last victory of the season at the expense of an old rival, Wabash. The final score read 20-7. This identical score was registered again on the following Saturday but with the Bulldogs on the losing end. Western Michigan, the administer of that defeat, had a big team that just proved too much for the Hinklemen. Ohio uni- versity put the finishing touches on a rather disasterous Butler football season by winning 14-6 in the final game. Coach Hinkle had no idea of the headaches to come when he started practice sessions last August. His injury list never failed to bear the name of one of his fullbacks. Captain Francis (Moe) Moriarty, Flavian Weidekamp, Jim Warrenburg, and Pern Cornelius all were sidelined with injuries sometime during the season. Curt Kyvik, first string guard for three years, was plagued with a bad leg all season. Dick Bennett, who ' s passing was greatly missed, also had leg trouble. Halfback Kenny Smock suffered all year with a bad back. Upon completition of the season, Coach Hinkle made a statement at the Blue Key banquet that the members of this year ' s squad were not in their best physical condition. He went on to say that regular conditioning throughout the year is necessary. As a result of this, regular sessions were held throughout the winter months to keep members of the football team in shape. Hinkle hopes this plan will pay off next fall when Butler tackles another tough schedule. FOOTBALL HONORS Football honors last season went to Moe Moriarty, Bob Hamilton, and Bill (Smiley) Kuntz. Cap- tain Moe received the blanket given at the Sigma Delta Chi Blanket Hop for the most valuable senior player. Hamilton was voted most valuable player on the squad by his teammates and Kuntz was elected captain of next year ' s team. When Bob (Pop) Hamilton received the honor of being chosen the most valuable player, he didn ' t realize at the time how great his popularity was around school. Just a few days before Christmas Bob was struck down by an automobile while on his way to work in the Fieldhouse. He was given a 50-50 chance to live and he fought hard and won. However, it was learned that he would be in the hospital for nine months to a year. Here is where students and friends of Butler rallied to the support of a fine athlete and a swell guy. A fund was started to raise $5,000 to pay for Bob ' s hospital bills and keep his wife and infant daughter secure until he was able to take care of them again. Bob Hamilton had more friends than he ever realized and a truly great gesture was made to a truly great fellow. BUTLER 68— INDIANA CENTRAL 7 Led by Captain Moe Moriarty, who crossed the goal line four times, the Bulldogs started the 1948 season off with a bang. When the first quarter ended Central found themselves 20 points behind and not so much as a smell of Butler ' s goal line. Flavian Weide- kamp scored three T. D. ' s and Pern Cornelius added another one, chalking up quite a day for the fullbacks. Kenny Smock and Bob Straub accounted for the other two scores. BUTLER 14— EVANSVILLE 13 This was a tight one and a rough one. Moriarty was hit hard in the first quarter and had to leave the game at that point. Big John Murphy suffered a concussion and Jim Warrenburg twisted a knee. Knute Dobkins saved the ball game by blocking the all- important extra point that could have tied the score. Weidekamp scored the first six-pointer and end Harry Farmer took a pass from Kenny Smock for the second score. Ray McSemek ' s two perfect conversions ended the scoring for the Bulldogs. WESTERN RESERVE 6— BUTLER This was the Bulldogs first taste of Mid-Amer- ican competition in the ' 48 season and it was a bitter taste. Western Reserve had lost two previous M. A. C. games and had tailed to score in either tilt but man- aged to squeeze by the Blue and White. This may have been a tip-off as to what would be in store tor Butler in their other Mid-American games. Coach Hinkle ' s crew had several opportunities to score but their offense bogged down at the last minute. WASHINGTON ST. LOUIS 7— BUTLER Butler ' s inability to score was becoming serious. A Homecoming crowd braved the rain only to see the Bulldogs lose another close one. Washington of St. Louis had a strong ball club but Butler was stopping them with a fine defense. However, they couldn ' t get their offense going and those 7 points for Washington proved to be enough. Several stiff penalties also aided in the Bulldog ' s downfall. CINCINNATI 16— BUTLER 7 This was the second Mid-American loss for the Hinklemen and the scoring punch was still lacking. Cincinnati brought a good ball club to the Bowl and Butler played them on even terms most of the game. The passing department for Butler last year was very weak and this put them in the hole several times. Weidekamp scored Butler ' s only touchdown on a spec- tacular 65 yard run through the Cincinnati team. ■I- jySaib fH BUTLER 20— WABASH 7 Fumbles were the order of the day in this game as the Bulldogs committed seven miscues. However, the traditional Iron Key stayed on the Butler campus for the third year in a row. It was another day for the fullbacks as Moriarty, Weidekamp, and Cornelius each chalked up a T. D. Moriarty re-injured his ankle on that scoring play and once again had to retire from the game. Butler ' s ground attack in this game was greatly improved. WESTERN MICHIGAN 20— BUTLER 7 Mud and a heavy Western Michigan line proved too much for the Bulldogs as they went down to their fourth defeat of the season. Led by Charles Schoolmaster, 250 pound center, the Bronco line turned out to be the immovable object. Weidekamp did manage to hit the line for Butler ' s only score. Western Michigan scored their first two touchdowns on passes and set up their third score with another pass. OHIO UNIVERSITY 14— BUTLER 6 It was D ad ' s Day and seven seniors were play- ing their last college ball game. Moe Moriarty, Ken- ny Smock, Bob Hamilton, Ott Hurrle, Knute Dobkins, Les Esarey, and George Blackburn wound up their college careers as Ohio handed the Bulldogs their fifth loss. Ohio could move the ball and their sweeping end runs were dynamite. Moe got his last touch- down as a member of the Butler team and that was all the scoring for the Bulldogs that season. 44 30 40 6 5 4 ' 3 6 | ' f Y % -? t h m 70 25 44 80 39 20 34 72 S4 33 46 Row I: Mayer, Myers, Thornbrough, Hopkins, Smith, Lawyer, Landry, Roberts, Crumley, Hallam McDaniel, Burge, Olivey, Akin.

FRESHMEN FOOTBALL Coach Herb Schwomeyer ' s rhinies came through a four game schedule with two wins and two losses. Eastern Illinois Teachers, Indiana Central, Wabash, and Miami formed the opposition. The Bullpups fashion- ed two straight wins and did not allow their opponents a single point until Wabash came into town. Eastern Illinois went down to defeat in a close one 6-0 and then Indiana Central was trampled 19-0. Wabash came to town with blood in their eyes and promptly walloped the rhinies 20-7. What Miami did to the Blue and White in the last game of the season was pure murder. Nothing went right for Butler as the Redskins swarmed all over them 52-6. What started out as a good season ended in disaster. Injuries hampered Schwomeyer ' s squad through- out the season and Norb Mappes, who showed promise as a fine back, withdrew from school. Schwomeyer and Dick Guyer, assistant freshmen coaches, were pleased with the work of all members of the team despite the Miami game. Halfback Bill Roberts kept the rhinies from being shutout in both their defeats by scoring touchdowns in each game. Stone, Hallam, McDaniels, Crumley, Smith, and Rodick also showed fine promise. T. K BASKETBALL Butler ' s l948- ' 49 basketball squad had an eight game winning streak when the Drift went to press and they were showing signs of being one of the finest teams to wear the blue and white. Indiana, Purdue, and Long Island university were three of the big teams the Bulldogs trampled on in their quest for one of their greatest seasons. Captain Charlie Maas led the team on to the floor that Butler followers will remember for a long time. Ralph (Buckshot) O ' Brien, Jimmy Doyle, Bob Evans, John Barrowcliff, Bill Shepherd, Ralph Chap- man, Dee Baker, and Marvin Wood made up the heavy duty detail. With almost half the season gone, the Bulldogs had tucked away eight straight victories in 10 games. Their two losses came in their first two games of the season when they traveled to Champaign to tangle with Illinois on a Friday night and then move on to Columbus the next night to play Ohio State. Butler got into the win column on the next weekend by down- ing a strong Indiana State five 52-49. For sometime Indiana State had been complaining about Butler being rated in the Big Four over them. State ' s ' 47- ' 48 record stood at 20 wins and 7 losses and ranked ninth in the country in offense. The Bulldogs settled that argument. Butl er ' s next game with Wabash started a Christmas vacation merry-go-round that netted the Hinklemen five victories in two weeks. Wabash took a 59-35 drubbing to start things off. Next stop was Madison Square Garden, where the blue and white knocked off a tall Long Island quintet. The Hoosier Classic was next on the agenda and the Bulldogs kept up their sizzling pace by thumping Indiana 64-55 on the first night and taking the measure of Purdue 47-43 on the following night. Indiana Central was the next opposition before school resumed and an off night gave Butler a close 42-39 victory. DePauw went down before Butler ' s heavy guns in the next game and Miami became the Bulldog ' s first Mid-American victim 59-38 on Miami ' s home court. (This was the picture when the Drift went to press.) Butler ' s own Mr. Basketball, little Buckshot O ' Brien, has been putting that basketball through the hoops consistantly since he first set foot on the Field- house floor three years ago. Last year Buck lacked 8 points of trying Charlie Maas ' record for the most points in a single season. Maas garnered 259 points in the ' 46- ' 47 season. In his first 10 games this year O ' Brien poured in 144 points. This means that he could easily break Maas ' record by keeping up that pace. In the Wabash game O ' Brien made it necessary to revamp the record books when he broke Bob Dietz ' s three year scoring mark of 508 points. It is almost a certainty that Buckshot ' s new three season point total will remain on the books for some time. Jimmy Doyle literally held the Bulldogs together with his coolness and fine team play. His delayed shots, where he hesitated in mid air before laying the ball in, were perfection. Gentlman Jim ' s passing was something else to behold. More than once he caught his own teammates off guard with his quick but ac- curate passing. As a defensive man there was none better than Doyle. Bob Evans, fondly nicknamed the cat, is just that quick and sly. He was adapt at out- faking his man and could do it nine out of ten times. Evans ' shooting eye was second only to O ' Brien ' s and his long arching set shots would snap the nets. Big John Barrowcliff had his best season this year and played heads-up ball. His rebound work was a hundred percent improved and he contributed gener- ously to the Bulldogs scoring. Charlie Maas never did quite regain the form he showed in his freshmen year but still remained the same steady ball player. Bill Shepherd continued getting rebounds from his taller opponents which made him a valuable asset. Known as old reliable for his ability to pick up points when the Bulldogs needed them most, Shep was considered a coach ' s dream. The reserves led by Dee Baker, Mar- vin Wood, and Ralph Chapman, showed great promise. i BUTLER 59— WABASH 35 In the first half of the Wabash game Butler seemed a little to eager and missed a lot of shots. Both teams looked ragged but the Bulldogs snapped out of it in the second half and went on to win 59-35. Bob Evans carried the scoring burden in the first half with 10 points. However, Buckshot was the man of the hour as he broke Bob Dietz three year scoring record of 508 points. This one-two scoring combina- tion tied for high point man with 13 tallies apiece. BUTLER 63— LONG ISLAND 54 Here was the game of the year as Coach Hinkle took his boys to Madison Square Garden as underdogs and came home with a nine point margin of victory. Eastern sports writers heaped praise on the mid-western boys as they ran around the tall L. I. U. crew. Buckshot again took the spotlight as he poured in 20 points for the victors. BUTLER 64— INDIANA 55 Undefeated Indiana was Butler ' s first opponent in the Hoosier Classic and that word undefeated meant nothing to the Blue and White as they poured it on the Hoosiers. The scoring in this game was very evenly distributed as O ' Brien took scoring honors for the fifth straight time this season with 15 points, followed by Shepherd with 13, Evans 12, and Doyle I I. ILLINOIS 67— BUTLER 62 Illinois started Coach Hinkle ' s quintet off on the wrong foot by defeating them 67-62. Three of Butler ' s starting five,, Bob Evans, John Barrowcliff, and Jimmy Doyle, fouled out within the last 13 minutes of the game. It ' s very possible that these gentlemen could have erased that five point margin of victory. Wally Osterkorn, Illinois center, was red hot that night and took scoring honors with 27 points. Ralph O ' Brien led Butler with 14 points and Doyle ran a close second with 12 tallies. OHIO STATE 60— BUTLER 48 Playing their second game in two nights, the Bulldogs Just didn ' t have it and lost to their second Big Nine opponent 60-48. The halftime score showed the Buckeyes ahead 29-17. Dick Schnittker, Ohio forward, scored 19 points in leading his team to victory. O ' Brien was high point man once again for the Bulldogs with 10 points. Both teams were inaccurate at the free throw line as Ohio missed 12 charity tosses and Butler missed 1 1. BUTLER 52— INDIANA STATE 49 Indiana State ' s Sycamores became Butler ' s first victim as the Hinklemen started rolling on their eight game winning streak. The score was close but the Bulldogs had the situation well in hand. Jimmy Doyle handcuffed State ' s All-American Duane Klueh holding him down to 7 points. Before this game Klueh was averaging 15 points a game. For the third time in as many games, Buckshot O ' Brien was high point man for the Bulldogs. He collected 6 field goals and 3 free throws for a total of 15 points. Bob Evans garnered 13 to rank second behind O ' Brien. BUTLER 47— PURDUE 43 Purdue saw Butler hit 5 of their first 10 shots to jump into a big lead before many minutes had ticked off in the first half. At halftime the Blue dads had a 26-19 advantage. After the boys returned to the floor, the situation changed. Andy Butchko led a Purdue rally that cut Butler ' s lead to two points. With the clock showing 30 seconds left to play, Doyle dropped in two points and Butler was in for good. BUTLER 42— INDIANA CENTRAL 39 Butler was looking for their sixth win in a row when they squared off against Indiana Central. The Hinklemen did not look like the same team that had knocked off Long Island, Purdue, and Indiana. Their passing was off and so was their shooting. O ' Brien kept up his torrid scoring pace by clipping the nets for 16 points. It was more or less a bad night for the boys. BUTLER 63— DEPAUW 36 It was Butler all the way in this game as an inex- perienced and definitely cold DePauw five bowed 63-36. Captain Charlie Maas came out of his scoring slump to tie O ' Brien for high point man with 12 points. Doyle and Evans accounted for 8 points apiece. Doyle ' s passing was superb as the Bulldogs ran the Tigers ragged. BUTLER 59 — MIAMI 38 Miami was Butler ' s first Mid-American foe and soon became their first Mid-American victim. O ' Brien collected his highest number of points in a single game this season when he racked up 23 markers. This Butler victory broke Miami ' s string of six straight wins at home this season and made it the first time in two years that Miami has been beaten on their home court. It was also Butler ' s eighth straight win. HOOSIER CLASSIC Dec. 27 and 28 marked the second annual Hoosier Classic In which Indiana ' s big four (Butler, Indiana, Purdue, and Notre Dame) meet for two nights of real basketball. Coach Tony Hinkle ' s Bulldogs emerged from those sessions as victors over Indiana and Purdue for the second year in a row. Led by Ralph (Buckshot) O ' Brien, who tallied 15 points, Butler sunk previously unbeaten Indiana 64-55. On the following night Big John Barrowcliff took scoring honors for Butler with 10 points as the Hinklemen finished the game with a spurt to win 47-43. Notre Dame ' s Irish squeezed by Purdue 51-50 on the first night and Indiana defeated the boys from South Bend 50-47 the next evening. A look at the team standing over the two year period finds Butler a winner in all four games. Indiana and Notre Dame have broken even, winning two and losing two, and Purdue has failed to cop a victory in all four games. Several remarks were made following the Classic and the coaches of Indiana and Purdue were expecting some comment on their losses to the young upstart Butler team. Someone said, If you can ' t beat ' em, don ' t play ' em. Indiana and Purdue ' s losses to Butler made it three years in a row that the Bulldogs have knocked off the Big Nine representatives. The year before the Classic was born Coach Hinkle ' s boys racked both Purdue and Indiana over the coals in regular season play. Buckshot O ' Brien came out of the Classic in third place in scoring with 23 points for two nights work. Bob Evans ranked fifth with 20 points. Sports an- nouncers and writers picked an all-tourney team and O ' Brien and Jimmy Doyle were unaminous choices. Doyle played his usual cool and even game and his passing and team work were better than ever. From the standpoint of the Classic, Butler was ranked over Indiana and Purdue. Since the Bulldogs didn ' t meet Notre Dame in the Classic it was difficult to compare the two teams. However, the two meetings in the regular season between these two squads tells the story. Butler made a trip to Madison Square Garden last December for the first time in seven years to play Coach Clair Bee ' s Long Island quintet. It was Coach Hinkle ' s third try for a victory over L. I. U. and the Bulldogs took the floor as four point underdogs. When the smoke had cleared some 13,000 fans, who didn ' t know one Butler player from another before the game started, were cheering madly for Buckshot and his teammates who had just knocked off the Blackbirds 63-54. Little Buckshot O ' Brien, making his first ap- pearance before television as was the rest of the Butler squad, took things into his own hands and per- sonally accounted for 20 of his team ' s 63 points. His long, looping set shots pleased the eastern crowd. Bob Evans and John Barrowcliff each threw in 13 points. The Bulldogs were being tabbed Giant Killers after this ball game. Three members of the L. I. U. squad stood 6 ' 6 and two more hit the 6 ' 4 mark. Of course, all these long boys did not constitute the starting five. Butler ' s prestige received a boost when they defeated Long Island in the Garden. A team that stays near home and does not play real competition fails to receive much recognition even if they have an exceptionally good season. The eastern sports writ- ers got a good look at mid-western basketball that night and Butler gave them something to write about. O ' Brien ' s showing in the spacious Garden was a shot in the arm for his chances for All-American honors. 1948 TRACK SEASON Winning six meets, including the Little State meet, and placing high in the Big State and Mid- American Conference meet, Coach Galvin Walker ' s track team finished the season with a fine record. Led by Tyke Manifold, Courtney Gerrish and Ira Odle, the Blue and White thinly-clads defeated Indiana Central, Indiana State, Ball State, and DePauw in duel meets and Cincinnati and Western Michigan in a triangular meet. They also annexed their third Little State track championship. In the dashes Butler had Ed and Jim Kennedy, Ralph Jones, and Jack Smith. Courtney Gerrish, captain of last year ' s squad, Dick Fine, Tom Rehrer, and Haydn Parks handled the quarter mile and half mile runs. Distance men included Jim Cline, Don Thomas, and Bob White. Ira Odle and Green were the hurdlers and Manifold, Tim Crawforth, Harry Farmer, and Tom Cross were in the field events. Against Indiana Central Coach Walker ' s men swept five events, the 100 and 220 yard dashes, the half mile, pole vault, and high jump. Butler ran up its highest score in that meet winning l05 ' 2 to 25 ' 2- The Indiana State meet was another walk-away as the Walkermen scored 89 points to State ' s 42. Butler garnered eight first places to Indiana State ' s five. Ball State fell before the well balanced Butler squad 80-51 as the Blue and White team had a field day in garnering 10 blue ribbons. DePauw met the same fate as the others when they were defeated 84-47. In this meet Ira Odle took time out from his hurdles to win the 100 yard dash in 10.5. He also won the low hurdles which was a good day ' s work. The Butler, Cincinnati, Western Michigan tri- angular meet was a dog fight right down to the wire and then Butler won by a mere fraction of a point. The final score read Butler 52 27 30, Western Michi- gan 52 7 30, and Cincinnati 46 26 30. That ' s cutting it close to say the least. Odle picked up blue ribbons in the 100 yard dash and low hurdles, Gerrish took first in the half mile, Manifold won the broad jump, and Butler took first in the one mile relay. All three teams got their share of points and it was a toss-up right down to the last event to see who would come out on top. In the Little State meet Tyke Manifold broke the Little State broad jump record and also the Butler record, with a jump of 24 feet I j s inches. The old record stood at 23 feet 4 ' inches. Ira Odle took the low hurdles for the second year in a row. Butler scored 48 3 7 points to place ahead of their nearest rival Ball State who collected 40 points. In the Mid-Ameri- can meet Coach Walker took six men to compete. Manifold won the broad jump and Odle placed third in the low hurdles. Butler ' s relay team of Dick Fine, Joe Mason, Haydn Parks, and Gerrish, ran its best race in the Big State meet. They placed fourth behind Notre Dame, Purdue, and Indiana and their time was 3:22.5. MANIFOLD TAKES TRACK HONORS Howard (Tyke) Manifold took about every hon- or in track last year as Coach Galvin Walker ' s cinder- men had one of their best years. Tyke, who graduated last summer, set a new broad jump record of 24 ' l ' 8 in the Little State meet at DePauw. This jump broke the Butler record and the Little State record held by R. Jones of DePauw. Only once during the season was Manifold defeated in his speciality and that was in the Big State meet. Against Indiana Central Tyke sprinted down the runway and made a leap of 23 ' 10 which was a way of showing that Mr. Manifold was out to break a few records. In his next meet against Indiana State, Tyke took the broad jump with a decisive 24 ' l j leap. In his next three meets he stayed under the 24 foot mark and then came his record shattering jump in the Little State. Tyke also took the broad jump in the Mid-American meet against some of the best competi- tion. Manifold ' s fine showing during the regular season prompted Coach Walker to send him to Min- neapolis to compete in the N. C. A. A. meet. This meet was the trial for the coming Olympics and Mani- fold was the only member of the Butler team that Walker sent. It was necessary to change Tyke from the broad jump to the hop-step-jump event. Having the ability to master anything he attempted to do, Manifold readied himself in the short space of time he had and qualified for the Olympic finals to be held the following month. Tyke came up with a bad heel just before the final trials and failed to qualify for the Olympics. Whether the bad heel was a factor in his failure to qualify is not known, since the competition in this event was just about the best in the country. Regardless of this, Tyke Manifold added a little more prestige to Butler ' s name. Another honor bestowed upon Manifold was the Andy Williams award for Butler ' s most outstanding athlete. He was the first track man to receive this honor. His outstanding performances on the cinder paths throughout the year made him the most likely athlete to be given this award. BASEBALL Butler ' s 1948 baseball -ream came through a tough 18 game schedule with eleven wins and seven losses against strong Mid-American and non-confer- ence squads. A four game winning streak started the Bull- dogs on their way when they downed Purdue, Wabash, DePauw, and Western Michigan in succession. Some fine pitching by Jack Bradford, Lefty Paul Bain, and Johnny Males turned the trick. Coach Tony Hinkle ' s boys tasted their first de- feat in the second of a two game series with a M. A. C. representative, Western Michigan. This particular ball game ended in a disputed no-hitter. Center fielder Walt Fields dribbled a slow roller down the third base line which the Michigan third baseman fumbled. Butler ' s official scorer chalked it up as a base hit. Dispute or no dispute, the Broncos won the game 3-0. On the following week-end the Bulldogs travel- ed to Bloomington in hopes of picking up their second Big Nine win. Lefty Bain, however, lost a heart- breaker in 13 innings, 5-4. A second two game series with a Mid-American foe took place in Cincinnati and the best the Blue and White team could do was break even. Purdue slapped a defeat on the Hinklemen in the next ball game and to add insult to injury, Ohio University shut them out 4-0 for their second straight loss. The Bluesox finally came out of it in their second encounter with Ohio with an 8-3 win. Canterbury and DePauw felt the Bulldog power in the next two games as they went down to defeat 15-2 and 11-2, respectively. Indiana broke the Blue and White game winning streak with an 11-7 victory. A strong Miami University nine formed the next op- position for the Bluesox and squeezed out an 8-7 victory in the first of two games. Butler came right back in the second game to win 5-2. The last two games of the season saw the Bull- dogs edge Canterbury 2-1 and swamp Wabash 12-4. In the 18 games played Butler was shut out only twice and both of these games were against Mid-American rivals. In the remaining five tilts they dropped, three of them were by one run. 1948 BASEBALL RECORD Butler 8, Purdue I Butler 8, Ohio 3 Butler 3, Wabash I Butler 15, Canterbury 2 Butler 8, DePauw I Butler I I, DePauw 2 Butler 7, W.

Coach Bob Dietz had trouble with his tennis team last year as they went through a schedule of four meets without posting a victory. In the State meet Coach Dietz ' s squad could do no better than fifth. The Mid-American meet was even more disasterous for the Butler netters as they sunk to last place. Last year ' s schedule called for seven meets but three were cancelled. Dick Caldwell, Al Reed, and John McCord re- ceived varsity awards and Ray Davis, Bruce Laetsch, Charles Raub were awarded numerals. Although the season was disappointing, competition was strong and the squad just couldn ' t get going. Indiana and Cincin- nati, who have always been strong in tennis, proved to be just that in their games this year, against Butler.

Coach Jim Hauss came up with a winning golf team last year as his boys won 8 out of 10 meets and placed second in the Mid-American meet and tied for second in the Little State meet. Clyde Mclntire and Robert Ludlow, the two mainstays of the team, con- sistantly shot in the 70 ' s and broke par several times. Both men were varsity letter winners. John Hunter, Dick Vanderbloemen, and Kenneth Hoy rounded out the varsity squad. Ludlow was medalist in the Mid- American meet which was held in Athens, Ohio. Butler lost this meet to Miami by one stroke. Mclntire took medalist honors in the Little State meet at Notre Dame. Butler ' s two losses during the regular season came at the hands of Indiana. Western Michigan be- came Butler ' s first victim and then after the two de- feats by I. U., Coach Hauss ' team defeated Detroit. Wabash was defeated next, followed by DePauw and then Indiana State. Wabash took it on the chin again and this was Butler ' s fifth straight victory. Indiana State failed again to even matters and it was number six for Hauss ' squad. DePauw became number seven and the Butler golf team went into the Little State meet with a fine record.

Unbeaten in 13 regular season games, Sigma Chi fraternity successfully defended their intramural football crown last fall before losing a post-season All-Star game to a chosen group, I 3-7. Gaining ten points towards the all-sports trophy, the Sig ' s not only successfully won their second straight grid title but also ran their string of undefeated games to 23 games over a two-year span. Placing second in the torrid race was Sigma Nu who kept the Sig ' s from winning 13 straight during the year in their 6-6 deadlock with the champs. The runners-up finished the season with only one loss, that being to the Sig ' s. In their 13 encounters, however, they were tied twice while capturing the remaining ten. The Phi Delt ' s gained third place honors and were followed in order by Religion, Delta Tau Delta, Lambda Chi Alpha, and B. I. A. In gaining their second football crown in two years, the Blue and Gold was paced by stellar halfback Larry Stuart who was one of the top passers in the league. Being unscored on in their first nine games, the Sig ' s temporarily faltered midway in the Delt game and the latter blemished the defensive mark of the Sig ' s. Besides Stuart, other outstanding Sig ' s were John Keach, Gene Parr, and Basil Sakas in the back- field with Dick Caldwell, Biil Bender, Jim Maugins, Max Hoberman, Charles McClacken, and Paul O ' Brien hold- ing down the front line. The all-star game which was witnessed by more than a hundred persons was in its entirety a success from every standpoint, and proved to be one of the cleanest, most-hard fought encounters of the grid season. Balloting for the team was done by the six other intramural managers, and was led by Don Batrick, ace of the Sigma Nu team who was chosen unanimously. Other all-stars included Tex Geib and Don Daily who paced Religion during the regular campaign, Bud Nye, Sigma Nu, who held down the center spot; Charley Kemper, John Kirkhoff, and Jim Cooley, chief threats of Phi Delta Theta; Sam Condes of Lambda Chi Alpha, and Ruell Parchman of Delta Tau Delta. Winning four out of the seven events and set- ting two new records, Sigma Chi gathered more points towards the All-sport trophy when they defeated runner-up Phi Delta Theta 36-35 in the intramural swimming meet last January. Roddy Davis and Frank Ward were the two Sig ' s who rewrote the water records as they established new marks in the 50 yard breast stroke and under- water distance. Roberts of Sigma Nu won the springboard div- ing crown with 74 points; Corey, Delta Tau Delta, cap- turing the 50 yard free style in a :26.5 time; and Phi Delta Theta winning the four-man free style 200 yard relay in 2:04. At little more than the halfway mark in intra- mural basketball, a red-hot battle was being waged be- tween the three top teams in the all-sports standings, Sigma Chi, Sigma Nu, and Phi Delta Theta. The Phi Delt ' s lead in the race during the first few weeks before the Sig ' s defeated them twice by scores of 21-12 and 19-18 to take over the coveted top spot. At the time the Drift went to press, Sigma Chi had a record of 6 and I with Sigma Nu resting in second place sporting 5 wins and 2 defeats. The Phi Delt ' s dropped into a tie for third place at 5 and 3 with Lambda Chi Alpha. The remaining standing found B. I. A. in fifth with a 2 and 4 record followed by Religion 1-6 and Delta Tau Delta 0-7. Ed Locklear, Sigma Chi, was one of the top scorers during the first half of the year as was Bob Gossman, captain of the Phi Delt five. Charley Owen and Bill Larsen paced the second-placers during this period. The standings at this time towards the all- sports trophy found Sigma Chi three points in front of second place Sigma Nu. Having captured the swim- ming title the Sig ' s overcame a one-point deficit to Sigma Nu to assume the lead. Standings as of January 14 include: Sigma Chi 20 Siama Nu 17 P Delta Theta IOI 2 Religion 6 ' 2 Delta Tau Delta I ■Erf 152E Plfc TICS SHE 2T - -• =id: Sons Mb -n=- =ar : .- - : mas. rr «o ! ■? - = -•sr 5 — i I- - zarns it 3c- r r - : ■ !■= dsrat jt 3NE jH-rg F fc g=— i — jii act : -s KBM S -J =E -:-_: - r-r • - ■ = - . ± z 3 — a : = a - - - I.-: ::- - - : ' t : t ,;• % m i c «, r.% e ;■ s a . : ' cS$, mr, Proud to be typical — Marty Wells of Indian- apolis and Fred Farmer from Terre Haute shake hands after being chosen most typical freshman boy and girl at the traditional Freshman Mixer.

The freshman-sophomore greased pole battle came off (and so did part of Phil Boyd ' s warrior at- tire!) Friday noon as usual. The frosh put up a game struggle trying to capture the sophomore flag but the second-year men successfully held them back.

Once a year Fairview femmes traditionally break down and ask their men of the moment to a formal hop, sponsored by the campus Panhellenic Council — every- thing ' s on the women, including ducats, transportation in Pop ' s borrowed buggy, refreshments, and a lovely corsage. Bill Hardman ' s escortress, Anne Bailey, won a ticket to the Blanket Hop for having dreamed up the most original creation for her date — and second place went to Jean Schlueter ' s masterpiece for Bob Runyan. A new attraction was added to the dance this year when the gals elected a Panhel king. Sigma Nu, Jerry Seawright, was crowned ruler for the evening as his date, Betty Forrester, proudly beamed on. Jerry also received a beautiful white flower pot which bore the inscription Panhel Beauty Pot. Hal Mclntyre and his music with sax appeal filled the Murat ' s Egyptian room this year at the annual Blanket Hop sponsored by Sigma Delta Chi, men ' s journalism fraternity. Traditionally, the dance honors senior football men by presenting them with miniature gold pigskins. A blue Butler blanket bearing a large white block B annually presented to the outstanding senior player selected by three Indianapolis sports writers, went to Frances (Moe) Moriarty. The Bullegian, take-off on the Collegian, pub- lished by the SDX-er ' s, livened-up the evening — and the Theta Sigs — per usual! This year the first copy of the paper, autographed by its editor, Harold Darmer, was auctioned off to the highest bidder and the pro- ceeds donated to the Bob Hamilton fund. Everyone chipped in to pay for their copies and help last year ' s most valuable football player back on the road to recovery after his accident. As a last big fling before finals, the dance certainly proved a great success. FRATERNITY and Sigma Chi Sweetheart Dance — Kappa Holly Hop — Pi Phi Barn Dance — Sigma Nu White Rose For- mal — Phi Delt Christmas Dance — and on and on . . . Sorority and fraternity dances make up such a large part of the Butler social scene and nearly every- one has a few favorite memories about them — — How you worked on decorations for your pledge dance when you were a freshman and the only comment the actives seemed to have was The band ' s a little flat, isn ' t it? or Don ' t you think there ' s too much dance wax on the floor? — ' Member the year you were a sophomore and it snowed on exactly the right night to fit in with the winter theme of your Christmas dance? — And how you were in bed for a week after with a cold ' cause you ran around the campus in ballet slippers trying to catch one number at each house — I . , SORORITY SOCIALS — Remember the discussion when both your Spring dances came on the same night and neither one would give in, so you ended up chasing from one end of town to the other to get to both — And how the cook would complain when her icebox was loaded with corsage boxes — And the mad scramble for a shower after finally deciding that he probably wouldn ' t remember that you ' d worn the same dress to the last formal — ' Member all the record dances and the masquerade balls — And how pleased he was when you raved about the favors — And vice-versa — Remember? — How could we forget? Fred Waring WILL he here! — Editor Dick Thompson kept pleading at the Drift beauty contest — and the maestro finally did arrive to pick Marilyn Gibson, Delta Gamma, as Butler ' s queen of queens. Orchids were also pinned on the shoulders of Barbara Beck, Virginia Foltz, Ruth Reed and Marge Stuhldre- her. This year ' s annual Whistle Parade was held at the Riviera Club with Bob ( Pris- oner of Love ) Churney singing his way through the emcee duties. Atlantic City had nothing on Butler when the 35 lovelies started confusing the quintet of judges. Mr. Waring had a hard time making a decision too, but after much humming and hawing, as he put it, the popular orchestra leader, assisted by Pennsyl- vanians, Uncle Lumpy and Bob Evans, finally picked the No. I gal. VinxjAsUa fyolfy Qg iAg ig, Qeok Manxje SUddcheke RtdU Heed Razor blade sales suffered a drastic drop. . . Fairview femmes actually turned down dates. . . Jell Hall looked like a collegiate House of David — Who are the Bluebeards pictured on the opposite page — fugitives from justice, castaways on a desert island? No — merely entrants in the beard- growing contest, sponsored by the Junior Prom committee. Clockwise, starting at the bottom, they are: Dick Hall, Don Batrich, Bill Roberts, Norm Pax- ton (the Winnah!), Kenny Brown, and Phil Schrock. A $25 gift certificate was awarded to Pax- ton — and a ticket to the Junior Prom went to Bill Roberts who had the second best stubble. Paxton and Roberts come out of hiding and handle the razors after a two-week vacation. Two Fairview coeds ignore their bewhiskered admirers who begin to think that maybe the four days per year that the average man spends shaving are not wasted time after all. . . . Dr. Ofeish tries to get a new angle on contestant Curt Kyvik ' s camouflage. j A new queen joined Fairview ' s royal family last year — Queen of My Dreams — Butler ' s first all-school production. Written by Bill Larkworthy and Bill Tobin, the musical was adapted from two of the former ' s Lark- worthy Laments columns which appeared weekly in the Collegian. Jeannine Lute and John Zizzi, stars of the show, sang to an audience of more than 800 in Manual high school ' s auditorium. The production which depicted social life on the mythical campus of Mid-Western university, was built around the dreams and subsequent after-effects of a col- lege Joe named Jerry. From the opening library scene to the last resounding crack of Warren Tengblad ' s re- volver the play was packed with laughs, music and ample ad-libbing. Eight original songs written by Dottie Ellen Ro- mine and Dottie Clarke received favorable comment from all sizes. The two versatile writers offered a full scope of music, ranging from jumpy little ditties to sentimental ballads. Mary Martha Turpin, Haydn Parks, and Warren Tengblad made up the fine supporting cast. Bill Higgins, as a psychological figure of fairy-land, provoked quite a bit of attention with his fireman-red cords, and Dewey Nelson ' s store-bought buck teeth kept the audience in an uproar. Keith Bratton must still have nightmares of the backdrops ' acute case of the shakes just as the first cur- tain was about to go up. Considering the amount of money the whole show was produced on, Rabbit and his crew wrought somewhat of a miracle in designing the scenery. A consensus from the audience confirmed the fact that the show was a success and that with greater financial backing and more time for preparat ion, Butler can present some truly great musical shows in the future. In addition to the financial gain and wholehearted support of the school, much was gained by the trial and error method. The co-authors, Larkworthy and Tobin, started the ball rolling in hopes that similar productions will be put on by Fairview students. They felt they had achieved their purpose of consolidating the student body behind a common theme, and in raising funds, $300, for the Union building.

BESSIE SHAFFER Housemother PHI DELTA THETA The Indiana Gamma chapter of Phi Delta Theta, oldest of Butler ' s six fraternities, began the year with an active membership of fifty-nine men, and at the close of a very successful rush thirty-three men were selected as pledges. For men of Phi Delta Theta, the year 1948 is indeed an important one, for it was just one hundred years ago that six men put their signatures to a bond that was to be passed down through the generations as the code and law of a great fraternity. Since that memorable year Phi Delta Theta has grown extensively in the United States and Canada, until at the present time there are one hundred and nine active chapters. Indiana Gamma began the year by picking up paint brushes and redecorating the study rooms of the house. To the large living room beautiful new drapes were contributed by the Mother ' s Club, and a new floor was installed in the dining hall. Jim Bartz was chosen by the crew of Phis to skipper the ship through the fall semester. Jim, to- gether with social chairman Don Smiley, brought together a well rounded agenda of social events in- cluding Christmas and spring formals along with numerous house dances. Pledges and actives of Phi Delta Theta partici- pated fully in intramural and varsity sports. Brother Francis Moriarty captained the 1948 football squad while Brother Jim Doyle is the holder of last year ' s most valuable player award on the basketball courts. Mom Shaffer is in her twelfth year as a faith- ful and devoted housemother. Row I: P. Kappas, Crouse, Kruger, Giles, Rudy, Kish, D. Peek, Disser.

MAURICE SHANKEMAN President SIGMA ALPHA MU On November 26, 1909, eight men pledged themselves to a lasting bond of friendship in the City College of New York and thus formed Sigma Alpha Mu Fraternity. Since that time fifty-six chapters have been chartered in the United States and Canada. During the spring semester of 1948, a group of boys on our campus formed a social club. They later met with some representatives of Sigma Alpha Mu with intentions of becoming a pledge group. Later on this vision came to life and on June 4, 1948, members of the group were formally initiated as the Mu lota chapter of Sigma Alpha Mu Fraternity. The founders of Sigma Alpha Mu Fraternity on our campus were Joe Meshulam, Charles Kwitny, Moe Schankerman, Mike Kirsh, Jack Kanter, Morty Bleet- stein, Martin Levin, Irving Prince, Leon Gelman, Joe Epstein, Leon Segan, Gerry Rapaport, Stanley Nick- barg, and Joe Green. Mu lota suffered the usual fraternity growing pains, but still was able to take an active part in cam- pus activities. Pledge Bill Tuteur was elected treasurer of the Freshman class. Jack Kanter was initiated into Phi Eta Sigma, and Mike Kirsh was elected as dele- gate to the National Inter-fraternity Conference. We are represented on the varsity football team by Moe Schankerman. Joe Meshulam and Joe Epstein repre- sented the fraternity on the religious council and other members belong to the Insurance Society, Loyalty Legion, and Philosophy Club. The first officers of the new chapter were Moe Schankerman, prior; Mike Kirsh, recorder; and Jack Kanter, exchequer. Through undaunted efforts of its members and the university, Sigma Alpha Mu has had a most suc- cessful year and now turns to the future. Row I: Meshulam, Levine, Shanlceman, Cantor, Goodman.

HOFFMAN Housemother JIM DORRELL President SIGMA CHI Sigma Chi Fraternity was founded in 1855 at Miami, University, Oxford, Ohio, as were Phi Delta Theta and Beta Theta Pi, to form the unique Miami Triad. Rho chapter was installed at Butler University on April 16, 1865, the sixteenth of 113 active chap- ters of Sigma Chi throughout the United States and Canada. The fraternity now has more than 55,000 members in these two countries. Twenty-six new pledges were presented at the open house which started the social season. The annual Christmas dance given by the pledge class was held Friday, December 17. Mrs. Ruby E. Hoffman, a Pi Phi at Iowa State, returned for a second year as housemother. Her skill and ability aided the chapter a great deal during her first year on campus, and Rho chapter was happy to have her back. Mike Tiernan coached the Sig eleven to its second consecutive undefeated season and the second straight intramural football championship. D. J. Thomas was elected president of the Sophomore Class. Jack Boston was named midwest director of the Collegiate Council for the United Na- tions. Mark Henderson served as president of Alpha Delta Sigma, and Joe Dorrell was the leader of the Young Republican Club. Dorrell was also chosen as the Interfraternity Council delegate to the national convention in New York City. Officers of the chapter were Joe Dorrell, presi- dent; Mark Henderson, vice-president; Charles Del- porte, secretary; Orin Bartle, treasurer; Larry Stuart, pledge trainer; Dick Countryman, tribune; Roy Stokes, associate editor; Dick Henderson, historian; and John Keach, steward.

ELSIE KUERST Housemother JOHN ELLIS President SIGMA NU Founded at Virginia Military Institute in 1 869, Sigma Nu Fraternity has grown to 101 chapters in 46 states with over 65,000 members. Epsilon Mu chapter was chartered at Butler in 1926, and currently has over 90 members representing six states and Mexico. Thirty-five men gave their pledge to Sigma Nu at the beginning of the fall semester, and they were presented to the campus at an open house held in October. Highlights on the social calendar were the annual White Rose formal in October, a Western dance in December, the annual Christmas party for underprivileged children, and a pledge dance held in February. Indiana Sigma Nu chapters held a State Day in March — their first since 1941. Brother Johnny Long visited the Epsilon Mu chapter house when his orchestra played for a local dance. Outstanding men in the chapter this year in- cluded: Ralph Gaston, Blue Key; Lloyd Olcott, Blue Key vice-president and Collegiate Who ' s Who in American Universities and Colleges; Richard Thomp- son, Drift editor and Collegiate Who ' s Who; Herman Wichser, Drift business manager; John Martin, Sphinx president; and Jerry Seawright, first Panhellenic dance King since before the war. Winners of the All Sports trophy last year, Sigma Nu is also proud of varsity gridmen Don Roberts, Bob Hamilton, and Robert Dunyon. Administrative offices of the fraternity were held by Commander John A. Ellis, Lt. Commander Lloyd W. Olcott, Recorder Robert A. Darmer, Mar- shall Jerry Chapman, Sentinel Bill Dugan, and Chap- lain George Loepker. Mrs. Elsie Kuerst, housemother, has finished her third year with Sigma Nu.

The Butler Independent Association, only local chapter of the National Independent Association, was organized in September of 1932. Its purpose was and is to foster and perpetuate a unified spirit among Butler students not affiliated with ©reek letter socie- ties. B. I. A. members have endeavored to fulfill the association ' s purposes of promoting social, politican, and cultural interests. The B. I. A. pin is a blue shield with gold letters. Meetings are held every Wednesday in the social room which is located directly north of the Campus Club in the northeast corner of the basement. Mem- bership, at present, is select, due to limitations of facilities; however, in the near future, B. I. A. hopes to be able to accommodate an unlimited number of members. B. I. A. has a pledge-active system of membership, as do all the other social organizations on the campus. Pledges are given the same privileges and responsibilities accorded to the actives. Outstanding events in the yearly calendar are the annual wiener roast, Christmas party, carolling, initiation banquet, skating party, and the traditional spring outing to one of the state parks. Members en- deavor to participate in all the campus activities; intramural sports, beauty contests, class elections, spring sing, cheer drives, and Geneva stunts. At all times during the school day, members who have the time may play ping pong, cards, dance, or lounge in the social room. Meetings are always followed by social gatherings. The following members were elected to offices for the 1948-1949 year: Herbert Luzader, president; Virginia O ' Nan, vice-president; Virginia Rodamn, secretary; and Lewis Hasenstab, treasurer. Co-pledge chairmen were J. Douglass Porter and Lavon Goss. Sponsors of the organization were Dr. and Mrs. Means, Mr. and Mrs. Henzie, and Mr. and Mrs. Geyer.

A group of students, independent of frater- nities and sororities on the Butler campus, met in the fall of 1947 to discuss co-ordinated activity among all unorganized students. From this meeting grew the Independent Students Association, which has become very active in campus affairs. The constitution adopted by the I. S. A. states as its purpose to further the interests of the un- organized students of Butler University and to do our part in aiding the university as a whole. Active in all school affairs, the I. S. A. suc- ceeded in electing independent candidates to several class offices. Rex Van Trees was elected president of the Senior class and Bill Pace, vice-president. Five of the Junior class offices were occupied by I. S. A. backed independent students. They include: Ralph (Buckshot) O ' Brien, president; Betty Sparrow, vice-president; Doris Johnson, secretary; George Mel- loan, treasurer; and Jack Adams, Junior Prom chair- man. Hans Steilberger was elected treasurer of the Sophomore class. I. S. A. members selected for Who ' s Who In American Universities and Colleges were L. Dale Marvel, Bill Pace, and Rex Van Trees, who was also selected in 1947-48. The officers for the year were L. Dale Marvel, president; Dale E. Hall, executive vice-president; Betty Sparrow, secretary; Paul Boekankamp, treasurer; Charles Mercer, vice-president of men ' s division; Betty Fredrick, vice-president of women ' s division; and Edgar Davis, parliamentarian. Dr. Harry E. Crull continued as sponsor for the I. S. A. with a new co-sponsor, Mr. George H. Miller, journalism instructor. T o A ALPHA EPSILON Alpha Epsilon, better known as the Stray Greek chapter on Butler campus, was organized in the spring of 1947 by eight off-campus fraternity men. The chapter is now completing its second year of active participation in campus affairs and boasts a member- ship of over twenty-five men, representing ten fraterni- ties. The Stray Greek chapter was formed in order to foster and perpetuate good feeling among all off-campus fraternity men. It also helps to provide for their continued participation in all phases of campus life. Activities of the Stray Greeks included partici- pation in the functions of the Inter-fraternity Council and yearly events of Butler such as Homecoming, class elections, cheer drives, and class dances. This year the officers were president, Larry Finley, Theta Chi; vice-president, Bud Nelson, Sigma Alpha Epsilon; secretary, Dick Fackler, Phi Kappa Psi; treasurer, Robert Bogan, Alpha Tau Rho; social chair- man, Jim Grimes, Phi Gamma Delta; and publicity chairman, Wallace Smith, Alpha Tau Omega. Dr. C. E. Aldrich, director of the division of graduate instruction, is the sponsor and advisor. Row I: Finley, Smith, Fackler, Grossman, Bellamy, Glidden, Loughery.
