The West Senior House, which the class of ' 31 vacated in May, 193 0, was thoroughly renovated and enlarged, thus providing a President ' s home which is satisfactorily filling a need long felt by the college. The East Senior House was also repaired and made ready this fall for the use of the faculty members. Mrs. Jones, head of the Speech Department, and her family occupy three of the downstairs rooms in which Mrs. Hart ' s fam- ily formerly lived. Mrs. Forrest, voice instructor; Dr. Gamper, professor of German, and Miss Olsen, instructor in biology, also have apartments in the East Senior House. The new hostess of the dining room. Miss Mosley, makes her home there also. E.ist Senior House West Senior House Due to the removal of the President ' s family. Dean Austin now uses their old apartment in Main as her private living quarters and office. Mrs. Hart is living in Jane Hall, in which she has a suite of rooms on the first floor. Dr. Stewart, the senior class advisor, is the only faculty member who lives in Jane. Miss Anderson and Miss John- ston still have their rooms in Harker Hall. The other faculty members have apartments and rooms in town. The erection of Jane Hall has made it possible for Mac- Murray College to fulfill a dream which it has long cherished, namely, a President ' s home and a faculty house. ■r, Forty -one I According to the Illiwoco Staff Vote AMY WOLFF Mosf Actively Athletic RHODA OLDS Most Cleverly Aviitsiug IRMA RISSI Most Sublimely Indifferent CAROLYN LONGSTAFF Personally Attractive Forty-five Amy Wolff Forty-ux Forty-sei ' en Vorty-nine 1 SENIOR CLASS Miss Stewart Senior Class History The class of ' 31 is the first to graduate from the college under the new name of MacMurray College. This class has incorporated many of the new ideas and movements of the college. During their freshman year, they inaugurated the system whereby one large society was divided into four smaller ones. Classes were held in MacMurray Hall for the first time when this class was a freshman group. The building of the Dining Hall, Jane Hall, and the construction of the athletic field all came within the career of the class of ' 31 in MacMurray College. In spite of the fact that this class of ' 3 1 has not been triumphant in athletics, they have shown themselves excellent in sports throughout their four years. They won the hockey cham- pionship of 1929. There are some unusual literary hghts in this class. As sophomores, they published the first college song book. Irma Hinchman was editor of the lUiwoco which was published in 1930. Under Grace Chapman ' s guidance, there have been many fine issues of the College Greetings, which is the senior literary work for the college.

The keynote of their college spirit was struck on Thanksgiving Eve of their freshman year, when they violently disregarded their green ribbons by a spirited revolt. In regard to athletics, they were undefeated during their fresh- man year. Miss Teague, class advisor of the juniors, directed them through their sophomore year. Despite the fact that they lost the hockey championship this year, they retained their first place in basketball, and established a splendid record in studies, parties, and other school functions. Because of Miss Teague ' s illness, Miss Anderson has been their advisor this year. Again they won the championship in basketball. They also took complete charge of the publication of the college annual. This year there have been teas, the first all-college dance and other social activities sponsored by the juniors who have thoroughly enjoyed Miss Anderson ' s advice, co-operation, and friendship.

During the past year they have maintained an academic standard worthy of MacMurray College. They have turned out several athletic teams all of which have displayed fine sports- manship despite the fact that they have won no outstanding victories. Among the social activities of the class was a swimming party in honor of the seniors. The sophomore dance was reported as a grand success. The class of ' 3 3 is half-way towards its final goal. The ability which they have shown so far by their hearty co-operation in the support of school ideals should prove adequate to b ear them on through their next two years. There is one thing which the sophomores do not dis- cuss before the members of other classes. The only hint given will be that it concerns basketball. There is promise of literary and artistic skill among the collegians of this class which carried off most of the prizes in the Greeting contest of 1930.

Under her splendid leadership this class has started on the first lap of its journey through MacMurray College. At the first of the school year Helen Robinson was elected class president. Since that time the Freshmen have taken a prominent part in college activities. There are many athletes in the class who will doubtless gain distinction as time goes on. Indeed, they have made a record for themselves already having won the hockey championship, an act which filled the hearts of the upperclassmen with admiration. They also maintained an excellent basketball team. The freshman dance was a success, as have been the other ingenious forms of social activity sponsored by this class. Their originality and co-operative spirit were displayed in their re- sponse to the Library Drive. If present data is any indication of success, the freshmen have three glorious years to anticipate.

The men go up and the men go down With careless tread in the little town Outside, the years slip swiftly by Here, men are born, and here they die. For life goes up and life goes down With noiseless tread in the little town And inch by inch, up every lane The prairie is creeping in again. The years go up and the years go down With dragging tread in the little town And rustling winds will someday blow Through prairie grass where a few stones show. — Irma Hinchman, ' 31 One Ihiniheil One ■ I J Athletic Association Top Row: Proctor, Rearick, Agger, Byers Second Row: Young, Grismer, Walbridge, Longstaff Third Row: Cole, Woods, Hart, Foster Fourth Row: Shepherd, Hodson, Rideout, Foster fifth Row: Groves, Rothwell, Wolff, Cameron One Hnyidred Five Freshman Hockey Team Due to the active interest displayed, and the favorable weather, the 1931 hockey season proved to be one that will not soon be forgotten. The freshman-junior game of November 10 started the ball rolling towards the freshman goal; and it was only with the greatest effort that the juniors were at all successful in keeping it at their end of the field. The final score of the game was 5-1 in favor of the freshmen. On the same morning the sophomores were defeated by the seniors 1-0. The freshmen defeated the juniors the following week, this success making them the hockey champions of the season 193 0. The final clash came on Thanksgiving morning when the Army met the Navy on a field covered with fresh snow. Both teams found it necessary to fight their hardest from start to finish. The outcome of the tussle was uncertain up until the very end of the game. The Army and Navy both brought their ball within their goal hne many times, only to have it knocked out by the opposing team. At the sound of the last whistle, the score was 2-1 in favor of the Navy. One Hundred Six Varsity Basketball Squad The junior class emerged as basketball champions for the third successive time at the end of the 1931 season. On February 18, the juniors defeated the freshmen by a margin of 34-27. This game was perhaps one of the fastest and best played games ever staged in the college. Up until the end of the first half, the outcome of the game was decidedly uncertain but the tables turned during the second half and the juniors dashed on to victory. On the following evening, February 19, the Junior-Senior score was 39-29, in favor of the Juniors at the close of the game. Due to the fact that there was no Sophomore team this year, the Juniors were school champions at the end of this game. The Varsity team consisting of four juniors and two freshmen was chosen from the best players on all competing teams. The basketball play was a bit unusual this year, because of the adoption of a rule, advo- cated by the National Association on basketball rules, which eliminates the contested jump at the center. The Physical Education department endorsed the rule as a good invention. One Hundred Seven Juniors Freshmen One Hundred Eight Tennis Champion — 1930 Helen M. Hart Helen Hart ' 31 smashed her way to net fame by defeating all class contestants m the 1930 spring tennis tournament for which achievement she received the honor of havmg her name engraved on the silver loving cup which is reserved for that purpose. This honor is the per- manent record kept in yearly recognition of the hard-fought series of victorious matches played to decide the school tennis champion. The final game played by Helen Hart ' 31 and Catherine Goebel ' 31 was one of the most closely contested tennis sets which has been witnessed among MacMurray College students. The score of the first game was 6-4; that of the last was 7-5. The games were marked by a con- tinuation of volleying, low net play, and intricate returns which kept the players and the audi- ence keyed to the highest pitch of excitement as to the fate of each stroke. Helen secured the final victory and as a result is the school tennis champion. One Hundred Nine One Hundred Ten Finale Chorus Dad ' s Day It is difficult to estimate whether Dad ' s Day means more to the student or to the Dad. How- ever both Dad and Daughter had the best time ever on last Dad ' s Day. The day began in a wet manner, with everyone flocking to the swimming pool to see the exhibition which was made up of various forms of swimming and diving. Everyone seemed to be at top form even to the Dads who were properly splashed. Dinner was the next event of importance on the program. There were the customary after dinner speakers, who were introduced by Mr. Alfred C. Crawford, who in Dr. McClel- land ' s absence was master of ceremonies. The afternoon found everyone listening to a splendid concert by the Music Department. A musical revue, entitled Danger in Doubles, was presented by the Physical Education Department in the evening. The singing and dancing proved to be amusing to the proud fathers, who perhaps never realized what good men their daughters make. After the show, the guests left, assured that they have at least one safe investment during these days of insecurity. One Hundred Eleven One Hundred Twelve Miss Helen Metzler May Queen 1931 May Day is in itself a lovely day, one which is anticipated with perhaps the most unanimous interest of any day in the year. The reason for this great concern is that on this day it is learned who the entire school has elected to fulfill its highest honor; namely that of May Queen. This year Helen Metzler was honored in this respect. According to the plan of the May Day Fete, she was chosen by the fairies as a queen from among the immortals. Amid much ceremony the reigning queen was placed upon her throne, and amused by famous charac- ters in history who danced native dances. Helen Metzler has served in many capacities during her college career and with such a measure of success that she was chosen as the most worthy person to represent the college in its greatest traditional honor.

Cap and Gown Society has for its purpose the promotion and encouragement of all college activities, both in scholarship and extra-curricular affairs. To be a member of this society, one must have the best interests of the college at heart. Election to Cap and Gown is purely a student matter. The three graduating members of the society elect three successors, whom they deem worthy of the honor of succeeding them. No one knows the result of this decision until the last chapel service is over and the student body congregates in front of Old Main. The three retiring Cap and Gown members, who are stand- ing on the steps, descend one by one, select the junior of their choice from the assembled semi- circle of juniors, and escort her up the steps. Then the cap of the ex-Cap and Gown girl is removed and placed on the head of her successor. This constitutes the most impressive of all stu- dent services. The pin worn by the members of this society is in the shape of a small gold cap. Their motto Knowledge, Faith, and Service, which is also the college motto, is indicative of their aims. Cap and Gown was granted its charter in 1924 at the request of the four upperclass society presidents. One Hundred I ' urty-nine Students ' Association Helen Dickerson President Helen Metzler Vice-Prcsidenf Dorothy Booth Secretary Kathryn Hodson Treasurer Opal Springer Marker Chairman Mary Frances Waters House President Aureha Proctor Third Main Chairman Orilla Moe Second Main Chairman Mary Frances Breeding Representative of Town Girls The Students ' Association of MacMurray College is a member of the Mid-Western section of the National Association of Women ' s self Governing Associations. All student administration is under the jurisdiction of this group which is elected by the students of the college. Each stu- dent is ipso facto a member of the organization. This membership obligates her to support all the rules of the college and to live up to its highest ideals. The rules of the organization are set forth in the Brown Book, which is re-edited annually with the additions and changes that have been suggested by the Legislative committee. Meetings are held weekly on Friday morning at which time student problems and judiciary matters of the association are discussed by the student body. The honor system is one of the most important institutions of MacMurray College which the Students Association supports. This system pledges each girl to honorably uphold the laws and traditions of the school. Student Government has existed in MacMurray since 1905, when the college council was first organized. Soon after this a charter was granted which gave the organization the power to act in all student affairs. The fact that this body has worked so efficiently has increased the confidence of the faculty and students in their ability to govern themselves successfully and to handle all necessary problems of student administration.

W. C. A. of MacMurray College has completed another successful year under the able direction of Mildred Newman, who was well versed in the Y. W. field even before she was elected to the office of the presidency. She began the year by the inauguration of a new system where- by interest groups were formed to discuss student problems. Branch membership in the Y. C. A. of MacMurray College insures membership in the National Organization. This year, as last year, voluntary membership and financial subscription were solicited; the results were excellent. Practically every student claims membership in the MacMurray Y.W.C.A. Meetings of the Y. W. C. A. are held on Sunday afternoons in the social room of Main. They consist of musical programs, religious discussions, and various interest groups which consider the topics which are vitally connected with our fives. Fireside suppers have been among the type of entertainment which the Y. W. has fostered. On these occasions a buffet luncheon is served in the Social Hall and the discussions ensue while the girls remain around the fire.

Eloise Whitney Literary Editor Olena Cole Athletics Editor Mary Warner, Carolyn Longstaff, Gladys Long, Theo Wilson, Ellen Rynicker Reporters BUSINESS STAFF Janet Pegg Business Manager Frances O ' Donnell Advertising Manager Dorothy Trone Circulation Manager The publication of the College Greetings falls to the senior class. The chief positions on the staff are held by seniors. They have the privilege of choosing members from each under class to fill the minor offices on the staff. The Greetings is a bi-weekly publication. It contains the news of the school, literary criti- cism, and any additional material which may interest the reading public. This year the feature of the Greetings was a serial story which was written by various members of the faculty. The object of the serial story was to sponsor a guessing contest which would stimulate interest in the paper. Frances O ' Donnell was the winner of this contest. In addition to the publication of this bi-weekly paper the Greetings publishes two editions of a literary magazine which is compiled by the selection of the best material submitted by the entire student body. In the June edition of the magazine the prize winning stories, essays and poems of the year are printed. The prizes for these winners are presented in the last chapel service of the school year.

For seventeen years junior classes have struggled to produce a yearbook worthy of the institution for which it stands. It seemed as if the 1931 Illiwoco was as nearly perfect as any student pubhcation could be. It has been the aim of the staff to make the 1932 Illiwoco as nearly equal to the preceding one as possible. The sole purpose of the staff has been to assemble the material which suggests the events which would ordinarily be most potent in the memory of every student in the college. The Illiwoco staff consists of members of the junior class, the editor and business manager being chosen by a class vote. They in turn select the other members of the staff, whose duty it is to depict by word and picture the student life of MacMurray College in this book, a complete chronicle of college activities. Although the name of the college has been changed during the past year, the old name for the annual will be retained since Illiwoco has come to mean much to every graduate and student who knew the school by that name. _ _ „ One HninlreJ I ' ij I -s,-, en Dramatic Club First Koiv: Jones, Remley, Alkire, Beebe, Bellevue, Campbell Second Row: Cole, DcBoer, Dertinger, Frentzel, Gaspard Tbirti Roil ' : Gilbert, Graham, Groves, Hincliman, A.

Pugsley of Peekskill, New York, the donor of the Institute on Pan American Relations at MacMurray, presided at the various sessions. In closing the Institute, Mr. Pugsley announced that the third annual session would be held October 10-13, 1931, and that in connection with the Institute a pilgrimage would be made to the interesting Lincoln country which surrounds Jacksonville. C.) i ' Hiitnl red Sfifitly-ttco Pan American Conference The second annual Institute on Pan American Relations, which met October tenth to thirteenth at MacMurray College, emphasized the particular need of educating the American public in Hispanic-American affairs in order to bring about a general understanding in this country of the problems that face our southern neighbors. In the words of President C. P. McClelland of MacMurray the aim of the Institute is to generate friendly co-operation not only in matters of trade, but also in developing on the American continent a distinctively higher civilization and culture than the Old World has known. The speakers were all men of large ability and well known in the field of international relations. The group included Professor Chester Lloyd Jones of the University of Wisconsin who spoke of the great economic gain which must arise from the development of the resources of South America; Mr. Joseph L. Jones of the United Press who discussed the value of accurate news in international affairs; Professor William Spence Robertson of the University of Illinois who spoke of the grievous misinterpretations of the Monroe Doctrine; His Excellency, Senor Dr. Don Manuel C. Tellez, Ambassador of Mexico, who presented a vivid picture of recent attempts of his country to adjust herself to contemporary civilization; Dr. William J. Cooper, United States Commissioner of Education, who stressed the value in international relations of informed women; Professor William Warren Sweet of the University of Chicago who spoke of the value of knowing of the cultural background of Hispanic-America; Professor John A. Lapp of Marquette University who discussed the merits of social co-operation; Professor Dexter Perkins of the University of Rochester who urged that the Monroe Doctrine be rede- fined officially to end present uncertainty in Hispanic-America concerning its meaning to the United States; while Mr. Andrew Ten Eyck of the Institute of Politics at WiUiamstown, Massachusetts discussed the importance to the United States of the Canal Zone and our interest in the Caribbean in general. O ir Hliiiilrril Scvcnty-thrCi ' College Greetings Literary Contest Creative writing is prompted to a great extent by the annual literary contest sponsored by the College Greetings staff to which all students enrolled in the college are urged to submit work which they have written during the year and for the occasion itself. The contributors to this contest look forward to the last chapel service of the year with a great deal of interest because at that time the winners are announced and the awards made. Previous to this the results of the contest are entirely unknown to the student body. There is no limit to the variety and number of manuscripts which an individual may sub- mit; therefore one person may receive several awards. Prizes are offered for short stories, both formal and informal essays, poetry, and one act plays. The winners of the 1930 contest were: Short stories, first place, Beth VoUers; second place, Gladys Long; Honorable mention, Charlotte Foster; essays, first place, Charlotte Foster; second place, Gladys Long; honorable mention, Helen Beebe; poetry, first place, Irma Hinch- man; second place, Edith Gilster; one act play, Charlotte Foster, first place. The Wesley Mathers Declamation Contest The annual Wesley Mathers Contest in public reading is a contest in which all those stu- dents who are enrolled in the department of Speech may participate. The type of reading given Is optional, the only restriction being; that the length of the reading must not exceed thirteen minutes. Those who placed in this year ' s contest, held February 1 8 in Music Hall, were Constance Alkire ' 3 3, first, who will receive a prize of seventeen dollars on the day of the last chapel service and Elizabeth Dertinger ' 3 3, second, who will receive a prize of eight dollars at the same time. This contest is one which seeks to stimulate the interest of students in public speaking to the extent that they will produce some readings which have reached a high degree of perfection and will also give them the invaluable experience of comparing their work with that of their contemporaries. Scott Reid Cole Intecollegiate Debate Team Following the custom established last year, an intersociety debate tournament was held, for which the Wesley-Mathers prize was the award. The final round of the debate was won by Belles Lettres society, whose negative team members, Melba Reid, Anabelle Scott, and Grace Chap- man, defeated the affirmative team of Phi Tau Epsilon, composed of Mary Elizabeth Carper, Mildred Deaton, and Roberta Steinman. The topic for discussion was, Resolved; that the State of Illinois require all automobile owners to carry public liability insurance of not less than $5,000 for property and $10,000 for persons. Work began on the intercollegiate debate the second semester with teams selected by try- out, for each scheduled debate. The first debate with Northwestern, held at Pontiac, Illinois, February 13, resulted in an audience decision for the MacMurray negative team, whose members were Melba Reid, Olena Cole, and Anabelle Scott. The second debate with Wyoming University was held on the home platform March 27. Prof. C. C. Cunningham of Northwestern University gave the critic judge decision to the Mac- Murray College team, composed of Anabelle Scott and Melba Reid. The debate with the University of Missouri scheduled for April 13, was cancelled by that university on account of illness of members of the team. The MacMurray team which had been chosen for this debate was composed of Charlotte Van Ormer and Olena Cole.

Now, my dear friends, I want you to secure a date from the dat e committee and these works of ours to the public.

If so, you must try out for the need of someone who is willing to sing for will even go so far as to secure a position for you some sweet young voices there, you know. Do the college choir.

Dramatic Club Yes, you can belong if you pass the tryout. . . but my dear, don ' t try out. They are too rigid in their requirements and the school is just swamped with actresses already. The Greetings The Greetings is the only publication in the college in which you can express freely and fluently all that you consider worth talking about. It is good to get on the Greetings staff; it improves your style and then, too, there may be a chance as columnist on the New York Times as a reward for your services. Societies of the four literary societies in existence, there is Uttle to be said. Some girls belong to at least one of the four and some do not belong to either of the four. To be or not to be . . . It ' s terrible not to be, and, is most painful to be. You are barred from this that and the other because you are this or that and you are not the other. You know how ' tis . . . but we insist that you join a society because all the other girls are doing it.
