The Editofs Page In presenting to you the 1928 Inkanquil the members of the staff believe and hope that we have continued the improvement and good Work carried out by the staffs of the preceding years. In spite of the work and trouble it has caused us, the Inkanquil has also been a source of pleasure and pride. The staff, believing in the slogan, Your story in pictures leaves nothing untold , have attempted to eliminate all unnecessary writing, and to tell the s'iory with pictures. We hope that you will be pleased with this policy. We wish to take this opportunity to thank all those who have so kindly helped us in our Work. As these individuals are too numerous to name, we can say only that when we needed aid, we always found someone willing to help. It is with a feeling akin to regret that we find it necessary to turn over our Work to succeeding staffs. Our work is ended, and although We have made many mistakes, we have at least done our best. But, as the college grows and improves from year to year, so should its yearbook. Thus, We are looking for- ward to bigger and better Inkanquils. and it is our sincere hope that each future year will see an improvement over the past. -John G.

There have been more members initiated, more meetings held, and two issues of the Lark instead of one. More interest has been shown in the writing of original papers, and we think that some of the articles which have been published in the Lark are of literary merit. In other directions the club has taken steps forward. Mr. Klassen has given us a lecture on Impressionism',, and another on Recent American Fic- tion . These proved to be very interesting, and we all felt that we had gained valuable information concerning the most discussed types of modern fiction. The club adopted an emblem and ordered pins for its members. The design is a gold pen and scroll on a blue background, blue and gold being the colors of our college. Also the organization has made and formally accepted a consti- tution, which will serve as a guide for the club in the future. Almost as important in the activities of the Literary club as the regular meetings devoted to study are the social events, which included two initiations and a candy making party. The Literary club, this year, has set up a newer and higher standard than ever before, and we know that it will be maintained by the future club members.

K ,s - . . V 1 .iq 1.9 l ll in l IX lx A IN Q I l L NEEWOLLAH - I. J. C. added to the gayety of Neewollah last fall by entering two floats in the parade. The one which represented the whole college was a huge green and gold basket of sweet peas. Six of our prettiest girls were chosen by the student body to ride in the basket, dressed as flowers. Misses Austin, Broehl, and Bryan planned the fioat and supervised its construction and decoration. They and the many students who helped with the work deserve much praise for their patience and artistry. Their success is shown by the fact that our float won third place in the floral section. The Pep Club entered a float also. It repre- sented the ideal college: a broadcasting station where lectures are given, and a receiving set by the so-called student's bedside. GIRLS' BASKETBALL There is no intercollegiate athletics for girls in the Junior College Con- ference, but the girls of I. J. C. organized a basketball team and played a series of games with the class teams of the high school. They lost only one game, the first one they played with the Juniorsg and they defeated the same team in two later games. They won all their other games with the Seniors, Sophomores, and Freshmen, thus winning the championship. The girls who played are Mary Catherine Ryan QCaptainj, Madlyn Rhodes, Velma Snook, Doris Peck, Dorothy Slocum, Violet Shiery, Winifred Bryant, Bernice Shile, Ida Miller, and Lula Tallman. MUSIC . The college has been represented at various times during the year by a male quartet. They sang at the Christmas program of the University Women's Club, at several college functions, and on the booster trips. The personnel has varied somewhat, the final choice being Millard Knock, first tenor, James Corser, second tenor, Floyd Colburn, first bassg and Orrin Hamlin, second bass. They were trained by Mr. Klassen. The girls' quartet, while it has not appeared in public as often as the other, has practiced faithfully and has fur- nished entertainment for several programs. The members of the quartet are Wilda Dunbar, first sopranog Madlyn Rhodes, second sopranog Alene Bassett, first altog and Alice Wycoff, second alto. During thefirst semester there were a college mixed chorus trained by Miss Hardy, and an orchestra directed by Mr. Goepfert. BOOSTER TRIPS The plan followed last year to attract out-of-town students to I. J. C. was so successful that it was used again this year. Groups were sent out to high schools in the towns around Independence to advertise our school and to show high school seniors the advantages of coming here. Mr. Kirby, chair- man of the booster committee, wo1'ked out the plans for the trips. The pro- grams included violin wlos by Frank Dancer and Millard Knock, numbers by the girls' and boys' quartets, a reading by Bernice Shile, and talks about athletics and other activities by Frank Clampitt and Harold Brooks. The Pep Club, who accompanied the entertainers on trips, furnished an added attraction in the Way of songs and cheers.
