Text from Pages 1 - 176 of the 1949 volume:

! 1 i I J Forty-nine years ago the twentieth century began. For at least twenty of the more recent of those years, you and I have been getting acquainted with the place a famous man called a stage. Often, we ' ve missed cues. Sometimes, we ' ve experienced the delight of having an audience completely with us. We ' ve been laughing or sad on that stage according to the way the script was written. Now, as the middle of the century gets closer and a lot of us dust off our scrapbooks of clippings and revie w past performances, probably the pages that will stand out the clearest will be those entitled MacMurray. Those best years of anyone ' s life, school days, never grow dim on the printed page or in a person ' s memory. These days at Mac, whether you ' re leaving them or just beginning to know them, have been the times when the most cues have been missed and when, also, our press notices have been the best. We ' ve grown up a little more and have gained knowledge about the greatest play of all called Life. Our apprenticeship of child- hood is just about over. The talent with which we continue to act in the greatest play of all will largely be due to the finishing touches put to our technique by our associations with the people and places met again in the next one hundred forty pages. MacMurray has been for us a Little Theatre. The members of its cast have been our professors and our classmates. The stage setting has been our campus with its beautiful buildings. The play has been our participation in the societies, the clubs, the organizations, in all of the curriculor and extra-curricular activities that gave us so many headaches and so much fun at the same time. After the play, the parties, the spreads, and the gab sessions that began backstage behind the scenes have been etched deeply in our memories. As the catalogue of the MacMurray year of 1949, this ILLIWOCO is your program to a presentation of nine months of work and play at MacMurray during those days when knowledge, faith, and service grew from words in a motto to a poised and assured way of life and renewed faith in the Almighty, the greatest playwright of all. Our flew Ghapel The stage was being set last year in 1948 for some campus background that we have long awaited. A chapel! Now under con- struction, our new chapel is situated sym- bolically in the center of the campus directly opposite the library. The central location of our chapel ' s site reemphasizes the united purpose of MacMurray ' s threefold aim, which is that of instilling not only the desire for knowledge and for service in each stu- dent ' s heart but also of developing the need for God and the search for Him through faith. V HE ADMINISTRATION THE PROFESSORS THE STUDENTS THE CAMPUS mi Vart ihe TProducer Mrs. McClelland Knowledge Faitli Service Miss Duone Neureuther Miss Ferol Vaughn Miss Patricia Vine The words of any motto never come entirely alive in anyone ' s heart until their meaning can be found as a living thing in the life of someone. Here, at MacMurray, our quest for knowledge, our striving for faith, and our desire to be of service to the people around us are represented symbolically through the annual choice of three seniors who have exemplified in their conduct the meaning of the three words in our motto — knowledge, faith, and service. Miss Duane Neureuther, as Miss Knowledge, has made herself worthy of the title by her unceasing efforts for accomplishment in the academic field during her three years at MacMurray. Miss Ferol Vaughn has served on the Campus Christian Life Committee for four years and has illustrated through her campus living the completeness of faith that has earned her her name of Miss Faith. Because Miss Patricia Vine, in her four years at MacMurray, has been one of those who has worked at many things willing with no request for thanks, she deserves the title of Miss Service in its fullest meaning. Chosen not only as the living examples of the words in our motto but also as the representatives of those unnamed others who are equally appreciated but seldom acknowledged. Miss Knowledge, Miss Faith, and Miss Service are placed in this position of honor as an illustration of MacMurray ' s raison d ' etre. MARJORIE J. CUNNINGHAM has become a familiar figure on the campus in her two years at MacMurray. As the Assistant Dean of Students, she guides half of our students throuah their academic and social prob- lems. She, also, plans and supervises the S.O.S. pro- gram and conducts orientation classes. She is the adviser of the Sophomore Class and the director of residences as well as the general chairman of the dining hall committee. Mrs. Cunningham, through her work and by her social contacts with MacMurray ' s students, has made an enduring home for herself at Mac since her arrival in 1947. 7h WENDELL S. DYSINGER became Dean of the College in 1940 and has since developed a complete and result-getting system of vocational and educational test batteries that are supported by expert analyses, without which the tests ' results would be useless. In addition to his duties as Dean of the College and di- rector of personnel. Dr. Dysinger also lectures to classes in various fields of psychology. Like the other officers of the Administration, Dean Dysinger ' s genuine interest in MacMurray and hei students is apparent in every phase of his work and makes him a popular figure on campus. ROMA N. HAWKINS, as Dean of Students, has many duties that require her attention. She supervises prep- arations for all special days on campus and serves as adviser to the ILLIWOCO, the Students Association, the YWCA, the Junior Class, the campus societies, and the fire captain. She acts, also, as the chairman of the permanent schedule committee and serves as a coun- selor to half of MacMurray ' s students, as well. Through her lectures to the orientation classes, Mrs. Hawkins acquaints the freshmen with MacMurray ' s many tradi- tions and, at the same time, reveals herself as a person well qualified for her position through eighteen years of experience at MacMurray. The Deans directors E. CLARENDON SMITH, as MacMurray ' s business man- ager, is especially distinguished in that his wife is a MacMurray alumna. In his own right, Mr. Smith de- serves mention. The work of his office includes many details concerned with the maintenance of the Col- lege ' s physical plant and the employment of non-aca- demic personnel. The control of the budget rests in Mr. Smith ' s hands as well as the purchasing of all sup- plies and the collecting and paying of all bills. Mr. Smith has been connected with the College since 1942 except for a period of two years during the war when he served in the Navy. HAROLD E. GIBSON, like Mr. Smith, claims a special distinction. He serves as one of the ILLlWOCO ' s ad- visers. The GREETINGS, also, has his attention. Mr. Gibson came to MacMurray in 1937 after having been associated with the Jacksonville High School for seven year. As the Director of Admissions and Public Rela- tions for MacMurray, his is the office that approves applications for admission to the College and that dis- tributes literature publicizing MacMurray ' s continuing presence among the highly qualified and well-known educational institutions of this country.

The Graduate School The MacMurray College division of gradu- ate studies was formed in 1942. William Thomas was the founder of the school whose work is now under the direction of former Yale professor H. M. Halverson, whose sixteen years in the Yale Clinic of Child Development unre- servedly qualify him. This advanced depart- ment of education emphasizes work with handi- capped children and with the deaf and has maintained close contact with Jacksonville ' s institutions as well as with those in Lincoln and in Chicago, Illinois. Opportunity is also given in the graduate school for study in the field of juvenile delinquency. A Master of Arts degree may be earned both in the above fields and in psychology in preparation for educa- tional or industrial personnel work. A Master of Science degree is available within the de- Akers House partment of the graduate school as is also a Master of Music degree in music education or literature. With this wide field from which to choose, it is understandable why the graduate school this year was the largest that it has ever been with an enrollment of fifteen students from many parts of the country and from China, as well. Akers House was the home of eleven of the graduate students this year. Most of them will remember always the Saturday night birthday parties, the fire in the large fire- place, the bridge games. Four of the grads did not live at Akers. Ruby Miller of North Carolina and Leah Ferris from Montana par- ticipated in a cooperative agreement by which they took graduate psychology at MacMurray and put their theories into practice by living at the State Hospital. Doris Cooley and Nan Williams, two 1948 MacMurray graduates, lived on campus as did Kay Mailers and Shir- ley Flynn. Alice Jui was the graduate farthest from home. She received her degree in chem- istry from St. John ' s University in Shanghai, China. Ruth Magrath, another graduate from North Carolina, continued work in psychology. Physical education graduate students were Dorothy Govas from the Illinois State Normal University, Mary Leonard from Radcliff College, Cambridge, Massachusetts, Ruth Brown from Miami University, Oxford, Ohio, Jacqueline Ritchie from the University of Idaho, Shirley O ' Mara from Western Michigan College, Kala- mazoo, Michigan, and Martha David, a gradu- ate of MacMurray.

By then, their last year of study had begun in earnest with concentration, practice teaching, comprehensives, sen- ior privileges, and senior social activities all vying with each other for attention, for every wearer of the cap and gown knew that every minute was one of those lasts that needed separate consideration. Early in the fall the seniors serenaded the fresh- men and gave their tea, on November 6, under the guidance of Eleanor Adams. On November 16, the entire class greeted the dawn of senior cut day and stole away to St. Louis where Media was the enter- tainment. Jane Lonergan saw that the day was a memorable one. From Sunrise to Sunset they danced away the hours at the senior ball on November 27 to the sound of Art Mooney ' s best and beneath the gaze of Queen Janet Gustafson. Jay Novelli was the ball ' s major-domo. In the middle of November, also, the eleven Who ' s Who seniors on page 38 were named, and then Thanksgiving with its banquet and the seniors ' dawn all-school serenade followed soon after. The sophomores were entertained at a Christmas party on December 14 by their sister class, and then the last Christmas vacation began for the seniors. Upon their return in January, they elected their May Queen and her court so that they could be pictured on pages 40 and 41 of the ILLIWOCO 1949. Pinky Schlintz, the winner of the Recrrick Sportsmanship Trophy was also chosen at that time for the same purpose. The juniors cast their ballots, too, for the senior representatives of Miss Knowledge, Faith, and Service. When January 25 came, it was the seniors ' turn to help in the recognition ceremony of the sophomores whom they serenaded that night. The Onions put in their painful appearance on St. Patrick ' s Dov with the usual damage to digestion and knees resulting. The Keep Off the Grass cam- paign was begun, and Joan Johnson was elected Dad ' s Day chairman. Deans Hawkins and Cunningham en- tertained the seniors at a dinner on May 14, and on May 21, another dinner was given in honor of the graduating class. Mary Ann Lessel planned the activities for May Day. Those days from May 27 to May 29, the hectic, exciting, and unforgettable ones of commencement time, were high lighted by the junior class ' s Lantern Drill, the crowning of the May Queen, and the address by the commencement speaker. Con- gressman Walter H. Judd of Minnesota. On June 1, the seniors were taking a well deserved rest and al- ready were beginning to look back in memory to the days at Mac. « 24  Party-party Who ' s surprised? No fish at all?

A book carrying the names and backgrounds of these students is published annually by Who ' s Who. Colleges submitting nominations are on a non-competitive basis and are given individual quotas, determined by their total enrollment, that are large enough to give a well- rounded representation of their student body and small enough to be exclu- sively selective. At MacMurray, each vear ' s group of Who ' s Who students is elected by the vote of students on the Legislative Board, a body representing all campus organizations. The winning names are then su bmitted to the national organization for approval and publication. Membership in the coveted Who ' s Who group is determined by a variety of requirements ranging from excellence in scholarship, leadership, and cooperation in educational fields, to participation in extra-curricular activities, outstanding citizenship, and promise of future usefulness as a citizen. The above 1949 members of Who ' s Who and of the senior class are well-qualified in the eyes of their fellow students to receive the honor that has been bestowed upon them.

One of the reasons for its popularity is that at that time the new members of Cap and Gown are chosen from among the ranks of the member ' s of the junior class. They are chosen for their scholarship, for their achievements in curricular and extra-curricular activities, and for their college spirit and loyalty. Cap and Gown is an honorary group that was begun by the senior class of 1924. Mem- bership in the organization is usually limited to not more than five persons. The steps of Main Hall are the scene of the Cap and Gown recognition at which time the new members are presented with the group ' s symbols of friendship, honor, and sisterhood, which are the rose, the mortar board, and a kiss. The 1948-1949 members of Cap and Gown were Yvonne Schroder, the S.O.S. chairman; Dorothy Garner, the Students Association president; Leah Geil, president of off-campus houses; and Mary Council, the Recreation Asso- ciation ' s president. « 39  THE MAY QUEEN OF 1949 Miss Martha Moon HER MAID OF HONOR Miss Janet Gustafson « 40  « 41  Miss Jane Karraker QUEEN OF THE SENIOR BALL OF 1949 Miss Janet Gustafson « 42  T lie Stand-ins THE JUNIORS KATHRYN HALL Mrs. Roma N. Hawkins Junior Class adviser A Summary of the Plot Althougli green was still one of the class colors of the juniors, that upperclassmen feeling was beginning to make itself feU when they re- turned to a new dormitory last fall. Many juniors arrived a week early as counselors of the freshmen in company with the sophomore S.O.S. guides. The juniors were soon as busy preparing for their senior year as the seniors were in fulfilling theirs. In the fall, the freshmen met their sister class through a party given for them in The Hub. Peg Jenner was appointed to be the organizer of the Dad ' s Day water show and on Junior Class Recognition Day, December 7, Joan Lint was awarded the Conlee-Kent cup. Thanksgiving Day sow the victory of army for the first time in years. On December 9, Mary Helen Wright, the editor of the student directory, announced its sale. On February 8, the freshmen were recognized as a class and taken to dinner in McClelland Hall by the juniors, who also at that time began a series of freshman coffees. Dr. and Mrs. McClellcmd ' s annual luncheon for the juniors was given on February 19 and 26. In between semesters, on January 22, the juniors had entertained at a card party for those students who had not gone home. Ann Mellinger headed the preparations made for the junior prom given on February 12. The Bal Amethyste was played for by Larry Lonney. Charlotte Rahn reigned as the queen of the dance and had as her maids, Joan Shade and Marilyn Keilman. Mary Ellen Potter and Diane Moeller served as co-chairmen to plan the junior project, The Side- walks of New York, presented on April 9. The juniors sang Easter hymns through the dormitories after spring vacation, and at the last chapel, they moved up into the places being vacated by the seniors. Then, in appreciation of the companionship of the senior class through three years of close association, the juniors presented their Lantern Drill in honor of the May Queen and her court. They assisted at the commencement exercises and left the campus at the end of May in anticipation of re- turning as seniors to a new year— and to a new chapel. « 44  J U N I O R S Row I: President Nancy Wheeler, Springfield, Illinois Vice-President Joan Shade, Pekin, Illinois Secretary Patriciann Ryner, Peoria, Illinois Treasurer Margaret Jenner, Crystal Lake, 111.

Gimme back my towell — and this little gadget — The recipient of this year ' s Conlee-Kent cup was junior Joan Lint of Farmington, Illinois. The award, presented in chapel to Joan on Junior Class Recognition Day, December 7, was created sixteen years ago by the class of 1932 in memory of Rosalia Conlee and Frances Kent who died soon after their graduation. The cup, received annually by the junior who has in her sopho- more year been most outstanding or all-round in her activities, was in deserv- ing hands. Jo, who is a home economics major, served as circulation manager of the Greetings during the first semester of her sophomore year. She pledged Belles Lettres and was elected to serve as the 1949 secretary of the Students Association. During her second year, she also held the position of secretary to the Red Cross Board. Throughout her three years at Mac, Jo has made herself well liked and has truly exemplified a representative student at Mac- Murray both in her work and through her personality. The selection of this year ' s Conlee-Kent cup winner received the wholehearted approval of the entire student body. The junior class is proud to have Joan Lint among its ranks.

They returned in the fall with a determination to help each other to grow in awareness of their responsibil- ities to others and to their college, to unify their class through its activities, to see that every sophomore was given an opportunity to participate in class functions, to give their best services to the S.O.S., and to change and improve the procedure of the past initiation program. As a beginning to the carrying out of these aims, many of the sophomores returned early to serve as S.O.S. counselors. They conducted the freshmen through the wilds of the Brown Book, through that first week, and then turned to initiation matters and to the fulfillment of their last mentioned purpose for the year. The Black List Committee was named on September 23 and consisted of Mary Ann Jones, Betty Weymueller, Bebe Lusher, Nancy Horton, and Dorothy Young. Their freshman victims were chosen according to an alphabetical scheme. Coffees during the year were given by volunteering suites. This was the year, too, in which the sophomores were eligible for rush- ing that began on October 15 when bids were issued to the eager sophs. Phyllis Hogan was the chairman of the sophomores ' part in the seniors ' recognition day, while Jane Pickering was elected to head preparations for Blue Skies, the dance given by the sophomores for the freshmen on October 30 as the traditional postinitiation event of the fall. On November 27, twenty sophomores formed an honor line at the senior ball. On January 25, the sophomores spread their wings as full fledged second-year students. Before the Christmas holidays, Barbara Brokaw and Helen Van Emden were elected to be the editor and business manager, respectively, of the ILLIWOCO of 1950. On January 29, the sophomore project met with a great deal of success under the guidance of Delores Walder, the bookworm and chairman of the project that was called A Parody on Books. During the second sem- ester, in order to fill the offices left vacant by wedding- bound Dorothy Monson, Marianne Martin became president of Main and B. J, Klove represented the sophomores on the R.A. Counsel. March 5 was the date of the sophomores ' dance, the plans for which were directed by Jacky Wright. Bill Oetzel of Blue Skies returned to play for the Silver Flute ball at which the added attraction of a floor show was fea- tured. Spring vacation came afterwards. Then, much too soon, final examination time was rearing a black head against the horizon again. On the Tuesday morn- ing of the last chapel period, the sophomores moved into the junior class ' s section and then began think- ing of next year when they would no longer be sophomores but upperclassmen in a new campus world. 56 Seated: Mrs. Marjorie Cunningham, Sophomore Class adviser; Patricia Green, president; Patricia Pohland, vice-president; Betty Hollingsvirorth, treasurer.

They came up the steps of Main Hall to be met by officers of the student government and by their S.O.S. counselors. President Mac wel- comed them in Music Hall on Monday, September 13, with a warmth that lighted that first week on campus when the freshmen, guided by their counselors, pe- rused the Brown Book, took written and physical examinations, and learned the Alma Mater. On Wed- nesday of that week, the upperclassmen began arriv- ing and evening services in Grace Methodist Church were held that night. The freshmen received their class banner of yellow and white on Friday and began to think in terms of how to care for green ribbons. They encountered registration for the first time and began to get acquainted with schedules and professors. Smokey and her assistants managed, too, to make life miserable until Halloween and the poignant mo- ment of the green ribbon march around the fire. The freshmen entered a MacMurray whose ward- robe was being enlarged to include a new dormitory and a new chapel. They witnessed the laying of the chapel ' s cornerstone on Founder ' s Day, October 8. The juniors gave a party for the freshmen in The Hub on October 20, and the presence of the election year was emphasized on October 28 by a resounding political rally on campus. When the Campus Com- munity Chest Drive contest began between the classes, the freshmen made Janet Marshall the Community Chest Queen bv their winning contributions to the drive. The sophomores gave a dance for the freshmen, who, also, in the next month witnessed the Army-Navy hockey game on Thanksgiving Day and made excel- lent decorations for the banquet at noon. The freshmen societies ' one-act plays demanded attention next which was broken momentarily for Junior Recognition Day, planned by Jean McConohay. During the year, the McClellands entertained the members of the fresh- man class at a series of suppers. Christmas vacation was as welcome as it always is and final examinations were as unwelcome. The freshmen were recognized as a class on February 8 and a group of them formed the honor line at the junior prom on February 12. Kay Mathers masterminded her class ' s project, called Carrousel, on February 19. The dance given on April 23 by the freshman class heralded the close of their first year at Mac. The class of 1952 crossed off the last school day on its calendar and headed home for a vacation and with many new things to talk about. « 65  FRESHMEN | Inset: Miss Dorothy V hitaker, the Freshman Class adviser.

Main Hall has three house mothers. Mrs. Funk has been at MacMurray for five years and calls Jacksonville her home, while Mrs. Sargent, who has been here for eight years, can almost call MacMurray, itself, her real home, for her daughter is a MacMurray alumna. Miss Blaine, a member of English de- partment ' s faculty, said that she very much enjoyed being a house mother but that it felt queer to be called Mother Blaine. Mrs. Smith of Harker Hall had both sophomores and fresh- men under her care this year. She wished the fact mentioned that she has four grand- children! In Jane Hall, Mrs. Blount, after four years, still remains impressed by the warmth and genuineness of everyone at MacMurray. The juniors ' beloved Mother B had a new home this year in Kathryn Hall and said that to her the best port of the year was the girls ' excellent spirit of cooperation, especially in the fall when the dormitory was being completed. Mrs. Walraven in Rutledge enjoys watching the remarkable growth of the girls as they mature and blossom. Mrs. Livengood at Akers has had two years experience with the fresh- men and now has graduate students in her house. That there ' s never a dull moment is the general opinion of all of the house mothers. However, they don ' t seem to mind, for all to- gether they ' ve been house mothers for a total of forty years.

The Rearick Trophy of 1948-49 was pr ' esented to Mary Lou (Pinky) Schlintz during the Honors Chapel service at the end of May. In presenting the trophy to Pinky, her department publicly recognized the high quality of her sportsmanship, her skill in her work, and the genuineness of her personality. Pinky, in addition to participating in activities related to her major study is also a member of Lambda Alpha Chi, has played in the band, and served in 1948 as the lantern drill chairman. The Sportsmanship Trophy was established in 1944 by the Recreation Association. The award was named in honor of Miss Rearick, who presents it each year to a new winner. In chapel, this year, she again placed the Sportsmanship Trophy in very deserving hands. 77  THE R. A. BOARD Row I: Dorothy Monson, Sharane Reddick, Elizabeth Simms. Row II: Miss Elizabeth Rearick, Patricia Vine, Margaret Jenner, Mary Council. Row III: Grace Sitter, Ruby McHugh, Dorothy Booth, Betty Bauer. From that First Saturday, on September 18, in 1948, when the freshmen were the guests of the College at a picnic sponsored by the Rec- reation Association, to April 29, when the an- nual R.A. banquet was held, and all during the many sports activities supervised by the coun- cil, the Recreation Association Board continued to uphold its position as one of the three major organizations on MacMurray ' s campus. The Recreation Association was established in 1901, and although it is divided into an executive board and a council, its aim is a united one of advancing the standard of sportsmanship, of promoting individual participation in athletics and other recreational activities, and of encour- aging and furthering physical, mental, and social development by means of the play spirit. The policy-determining board consists of the above Recreation Association officers and rep- resentatives of the four classes under the lead- ership of senior Mary Council. Miss Elizabeth Rearick is the Association ' s adviser. Affiliated clubs are the Modern Dance Club, Maquatics, the Riding Club, and the newly organized Hockey Club. Upon enrollment, every student becomes a member of R.A. The facilities of the Association are available for her use through- out the school year. MocMurray mermaids Sssh! Concentrating cooks!

Council, the sports man- agers, supervise! They ' re kept busy from Sep- tember to May directing everything from bowling and golf, to swimming and volleyball. November was a busy month. During the first week, the hockey team went to Monticello to play, and the tennis tournament was held, also, with sophomore Mary Ann Jones winning the play-off set. November twentieth sow a play day between the hockey teams of MacMurray, Normal, and Principia. On Thanksgiving Day, the traditional Army-Navy Hockey game was staged with Army the winner for the first time since 1942. To finish up the month, an inter- collegiate swimming meet was held on Decem- ber 4, in Hardtner Gymnasium. In March, bas- ketball was in full swing and a national archery meet was entered. Under the sponsorship of Miss Elizabeth Rearick, the Recreation Associa- tion saw a very busy and satisfying year reach its end on April 29, when the annual R.A. ban- quet was held at the Hotel Dunlap to form the capital on the red letter Honors Chapel Day, when the Rearick Sportsmanship Trophy was presented to senior Mary Lou Schlintz. Plans were started before the end of May, also, for the 1949-1950 activities with the same enthusiasm that has exemplified the work of the Association from its beginning.

MAC MOUNTIES The sound of horses hooves in the early morning or in the evening in the vicinity oj the campus usually means only one thing. The Mounties are going out for a picnic breakfast or a moonlight ride. 1938 was the year in v hich the Physical Education Department recognized the interest in the sport of horseback riding by the formation of a group of riding enthusiasts, under the leadership of Mrs. Helen Kitner Crabtree. The new club began sponsoring R.A. riding hours, Mac Mountie riding team shows, the famous spring Gymkhana, intercollegiate shows, and the popular Dad ' s Day show pre- sented on the Saturday morning before com- mencement. Gymkhana, a play day on horse back, was begun by a former instructor. Miss Doris Greenwalt. The show is taken from a custom practiced in England. This year, the traditional intercollegiate meet with Maryville was cancelled because of bad weather and conflicting schedules. On October 30, a riding team show was held at the stables under the direction of Chairman Juanita Krueger. The judge for the event was Mrs. Dale Fox, the former Betty Rowden of the class of 1947. The advanced singles was won by Charlotte Erb, and the first pair class winners were Betty Butler and Barbara Sutter, with Dorothy Goebel and Sue Kaldahl coming out on top in the second pair class. Barbara Sutter won novice singles, and the team of three composed of Betty Butler, Juanita Krueger and Joan Bevirt captured the ribbon in that class. A cabin party held October 9 was arranged by Barbara John- son. During the year, a column run in the Greetings, entitled Mare Mutterings, was written by Betty Butler about the various ac- tivities of the club. The Mac Mounties ' officers for 1948-1949 were president, Dorothy Goebel; vice-president, Joan Bevirt; secretary, Betty Butler; treasurer, Juanita Krueger; R.A. repre- sentative, Joan Bevirt; team manager, Juanita Krueger; and scrapbook keeper, Jeanne Collins. 80 The people in the picture below aren ' t always that quiet and orderly. Every Wednes- day afternoon of this year saw them in the pool in Hardtner Gymnasium. Sometimes they were there more often, for, at the beginning of the school year and at the end of the first semester, try outs were held for those who wanted to join the club. Then, there was the intercollegiate swimming meet to be planned and held. Later on, a very colorful and gracefully performed watershow was aiven on Dad ' s Day in March under the direction of Junior Peg Jenner. The swimming meet was staged in Hardtner Gym- nasium on December 4 between MacMurray College, Bradley University of Peoria, and Mon- ticello College at Alton, Illinois. The scheduled activities of the meet were contests in the front and back crawls, the breaststroke and free- style, and in medley and some synchronized swimming. Diving was also a big attraction. MacMurray swimmers were the victors in the meet. Connie Stokes swimming the back crawl, Dixine Verstegen the breast stroke, and Bette Conrad the front crawl, broke three pool rec- ords in the medley relay race. Sixteen mem- bers of the Macquatic Club also presented a synchronized swimming number as did the other two participating schools. The MacMur- ray students taking parts were all from the freshman and sophomore classes. The Oasis Club of the 1920 ' s was the pre- decessor of the Macquatic Club that was formed in 1942 under the sponsorship of Miss Carrie E. Spencer. The Macquatic Club mem- bers have as their goal three splendid aims. Throughout this year, they have very success- fully fulfilled their desire to create friendship and pleasure among swimmers, to better their skill in swimming, diving, and life saving, and to create more interest in swimming in general. The 1948-1949 officers were president. Peg Smith; vice-president, Barbara Griffith; secre- tary, Phoebe Lewis; and treasurer, Jackie Wright. The R.A. representative was Jane Pickering, while Sue Skinner was in charge of publicity.

If, during the past year, you had several friends majoring in physical education who wore brown and gold at times, it ' s safe to assume that they were displaying the colors of their Physical Education Club, the members of which are those people majoring or minoring in physical education. Founded in 1937 and sponsored by Miss Elisabeth Meyer, the club ' s purpose is to create a cooperative spirit professionally and socially among women primarily inter- ested in physical education. During the past year, several educational films were brought to the campus concerning various sports, and Mrs. C. L. Layer, the foremost woman archer in America, visited the campus on October 7 and 8 lecturing and giving demonstrations both for physical education majors and for other interested students. On April 9, Miss Betty Hicks, the well-known golfer, was brought to the campus by the physical education group in the same capacity as was Mrs. Layer. The P.E. Club, as the traditional caretaker of the P.E. cabin on Lake Mauvaisterre, and as the popular sponsor of Club 13, held last fall on November 13 under the direction of Jo Murrell, was truly able to call this school year a very successful one. To entertain the customers of Club 13, the services of the MacMurray Swing Band were enlisted. Two floor shows and a dancing contest were also featured. One of the high points of the year was the P.E. Club ' s party held Thursday evening, December 9, in the basement lounge of Kathryn Hall. Folk dancing was the main attraction. Dorothy Booth, a junior, was the president of the P.E. Club for this year. Grace Marland was the vice-president. Evelyn Harris served as secretary- treasurer, while the cabin chairman was Elizabeth Simms. 82  Top: These P.E. games are toughies, thinks Dot, as she watches Miss Rearick ' s attempts to stay in the game.

This year was one of triumph for the Army team. The seniors and sopho- mores lost to the juniors and the freshmen on the Navy team by a score of 2-G. This victory was the first for Army since 1942. The Army spirit, repr esented by the colors of brown and white and by their horse mascot, carried the field away from the Navy blue and white and their mascot, the goat. The Thanks- giving Day game was the climax to team play-offs managed by Grace Marland and Pinky Schlintz, who were advised by Miss Elisabeth Meyer. The referees were Miss Ruth Brown, a graduate student, and Miss Elisabeth Meyer. The scorekeeper was Marcia Lee, and the job of keeping time was in the hands of Jody Bleecker. Those two winning points were made for Army by Jane Dunseth and Peg Jenner. Army ' s captain was Bets Simms. Navy was kept on the offensive by Pat Vine. A few nights later, on December 1, the members of the varsity hockey team, pictured above, were announced in the dining hall and received a large ovation for their achievement. Because this annual went to press before the basketball season was d efi- nitely underway, the results of those tournaments will appear in the ILLIWOCO 1950. Miss Carrie Spencer advised the managers, Dorothy Rosenfelder and Charlotte Rahn, during the games of the basketball season. « 85  Seated: Dorothy Monson, Betty Butler.

STUDENTS ASSOCIATION The first meeting of the Students Associa- tion was held last fall on September 22. The meeting was conducted by President Dorothy Garner and began another year of Student Association administration. Charlotte Erb served as judicial director of the Association for 1948-1949. The legislative board met to begin the semester on October 11. Members decided to continue to care for Francine Cuney, a French war orphan adopted by the group. On November 17, Dorothy Monson and Frances Mohan acted as auctioneers for the annual S. A. auction of lost and found articles. Continuing a busy year, Student Association delegates from MacMurray attended the an- nual Midwestern Conference at Illinois Wes- leyan at Bloomington on December 3 and 4. Catherine Lockridge, Joan Lint, Emily Milham, Nancy Wheeler, Patricia Green, Barbara Grif- fith, Mary Ellen Potter, and Charmaine Evans were guests of Wesleyan. They heard panel discussions concerning the various forms of stu- dent governments functioning in other schools. The purpose of this annual conference is to enable schools of small enrollment to compare their student governments with others. Our Students Association was begun on November 12, 1914. Legislative meetings were held this year, as formerly, every Monday night except on the first of the month, at 7:00 p. m. to discuss and to vote upon all of the ideas and suggestions offere d by any individual or any group of students present. The Judicial Board acted on the penalties which were received in the course of a year by those persons who violated the rules which have been set up through the years as a guide for our student goverrmient ' s administration. This year, as in previous years, the effort was made to acquaint the freshman with the or- ganization by having the student officers con- duct several orientation classes. It is the united aim of the Association to make every student feel so much a part of MacMurray and to let her feel that she can take such an active part in the Association ' s activities that compulsory meetings will no longer be necessary. 86 Seated: Janet Gustafson, Margareta Lou Smith.

Through the many years since its begin- ning in 1899, our Y.W.C.A. has acted as the unifying force of the social groups to which we have belonged and has always had as its fore- most purpose the creation and maintenance of that element we call the spirit of Christian living. On September 28, the Tuesday chapel service was conducted by the officers of the Y.W.C.A. President Janet Gustafson presented her cabinet members as follows: Margareta Lou Smith, vice-president; Ann Mellinger, sec- retary; Patriciann Ryner, treasurer; Patricia Cameron, program chairman; Corinne Schar- zenbacher, social service chairman; Jane Mor- rison, social chairman; Beverly Klove, partici- pating membership chairman; Ferol Vaughn, chairman of the Campus Christian Life Com- mittee; and Orra Mager, the World ' s Student Service Fund and publicity chairman. Mrs. Roma N. Hawkins served as the Association ' s sponsor for 1948-1949. The Little Theatre was the scene of the annual Y.W. get-acquainted party on October 2, in the evening; and in the students ' assembly on October 27, Mary Ann Lessel presented a humorous skit with narration which told of the activities of the Association. On November 24, a Danish born representative of the WSSF ad- dressed the student body through the auspices of the Association. And Thanksgiving Day was made more memorable still by the annual Y.W. Tea Dance, for which the MacMurray Swing Band played in Main ' s Social Room. Heart Sister Week, from February 9 to 13, was as much fun for everyone as ever and added one more memory to go with such others as that of the Y.W. Christmas caroling and the candles on the dining hall tables, the Y.W. Christmas card collection for the Deaf School, the distribution of Thanksgiving and Christmas baskets to the poor, and the childrens ' Easter Party. « 87  The 1948-1949 staff of our college newspaper very successfully kept the paper ' s standards up to the All- American perfection rating that it received last year. During the first semester, editor Doris Gustin sow to it that we never missed receiving our weekly edition of the Greetings. Her chief assistants were Jean Burnett, copy editor; Barbara Brokaw, columns editor; Janet Maxwell, feature editor; Audrey Hasselbacher, music editor; and Pat Vine, photographer. Jean Burnett was elected by the staff to succeed Doris for the second semester. Barbara Brokaw moved up into the position of copy editor, and Martha Orr was named columns editor. The feature editor was Joan Wiseman. The Greetings offered, as always, an opportunity for students with creative ability and interests to gain practical experience in the field of journalism. The editors emphasized student opinion this year with accent on the reflection of student attitude as represented in the edi- torials, forums, and survey columns. A new column, the Editor ' s Column, was introduced. It alternated with the regular Jabberwocky column in several issues. The writers were primarily students interested in the various subjects about which they wrote. Platform sketches of the several political parties were offered, and the writer always attempted to present her material as objectively and as accurately as possible. A breakfast, arranged by Edith Heitholt, was held at the Dunlap Hotel on November 7 for both the editorial and business staffs at which Mr. Gibson, the paper ' s adviser, and Mayor Ernest Hoagland, the printer, were guests. A coke party was held at the last staff meeting of the first semester. You can see that the Greetings editorial staff is not only businesslike but sociable too.

During the second semester, sophomore Clarissa Carter saw that everything ran smoothly. The business managers receive their posi- tion by appointment from the retiring officer at the end of each semester. In order to make the future incoming business manager ' s job somewhat easier, Pat Carter compiled, during her work in the second semester, a very helpful manual of procedure concerning things every business manager should know. Within the framework of the business staff, there are the advertising, circulation, exchange, and bookkeeping departments. Advertising manager for the first semester was Pat Carter. The exchange manager was Norma Stahl, who sent copies of our paper to approximately fifty col- leges in the Midwest in return for issues of their school papers. Mary Tracy, the first semester circulation man- ager, saw to it that the Greetings was delivered at the end of each week. The business manager, herself, kept the books balanced. The second semester ' s manager se- lected her department heads from the first semester ' s group. Their goal was the obtainment of high quality advertisements in order that the annual college news- papers ' advertising contest might again be entered and won as it has been by the Greetings for the last five years. The members of the business staff, along with the editorial staff, gave a breakfast for the newspaper ' s ad- viser, printer, and personnel on November 7, at the Hotel Dunlap, and throughout the year eased the pressure of their work by an occasional coke party.

Hawkins and Mrs. Paul Rowland are surrounded by a versatile set of juniors who never were quite sure what their role on the staff was at any time. They were by turns, and sometimes all at once, general assistants, reporters, and editors of every section in the ILLIWOCO from photography to copy. With the very able and cooperative help of the business staff and the advisers, Mrs. Hawkins, Mrs. Row- land, and Mr. Gibson, the editing machinery was set in motion in the fall. By the end of February, after a period of fire and brimstone work, the puzzle of words and pictures was put together in its final form and sent on its way with the united hope that The Book would be off the press by May and, as is always the case, the extreme gratification of see- ing the book completed at last, made memories of work and worry vanish at once. Since 1914, when the junior class took over the publica- tion of the first ILLIWOCO, with the exception of two years during the First World War, the ILLIWOCO has been proudly edited by the junior class as a story in words and pictures of the life and times at MacMurray.

Evelyn was our business man- ager and did a very first-class job of watching over the nickles and dimes. She and her assistants, advised by Mr. Gibson, were concerned for six months with the detailed business of handling all of the ILLIWOCO ' s financial mat- ters, of selling advertisements to local merchants, and of organizing the advertising section at the back of this annual. Frances Mohan, Mary Berles, Ann Mellinger, Amalia Hora- cek, and Patty Pardee helped keep the books straight when the payments from the advertisers, the students, and the various college organizations began arriving. In the interim, Evelyn and her aids learned through rugged experience how to sell advertising to busy executives some of whom seemed to be immune to that positive approach. The credit for this ILLIWOCO goes not only to the staffs of both departments but to the members of the entire junior class as a whole, for without their faith, understanding, and united help in doing some of the paper and foot work, the curtain would not have come down as early as it did. The ILLIWOCO editorial and business staffs of 1949 present this book to you as their contribution to your hap- piest memories.

Row III: Marjorie Tubbs, Charlyne Koch, Patricia Heiken, OUR CONCERT BAND Under the energetic baton of Mr. Henry Busche, the concert band of MacMurray College, again looked back in May upon a satisfying year. Com- posed of musicians enrolled at MacMurray, of outstanding high school soloists and ensemblists, and of musicians from Illinois College, the Concert Band has been an important part of pep rallies, athletic events, and campus sings this past year. On October 24, there was a campus concert and political rally. In 1949, on January 29, the fourth annual MacMurray College Band Festival v as to have been held with Mr. Newell Long from the University of Indiana as the guest conductor. The festival was canceled because of bad weather condi- tions. Last year 120 students representing twenty-two schools took part in this major event. This year all high schools within a radius of seventy-five miles of the College were invited to send their best student musicians to the festival. The band also gave a concert on Dad ' s Day and in the spring on May 6th in company with the Madrigal Club. The band ' s complete supply of literature and instruments has been very helpful in developing the talent and enlarging upon the experience of its members who are largely representa- tives of the states of Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, and Missouri. The band ' s president, Charlyne Koch; the vice-president, Patricia Heiken; secretary Joan Bevirt; publicity chairman Nancy Yonkee; and librarians Patricia Cope and Dorothy Fisher kept the musical machinery, both business and social, in tiptop shape. Mr. Busche, a graduate of Indiana Central College, came to MacMurray in 1945 to lead the band, whose history dates back over eleven years of music making. 92  W H H U  M tiy it H u w How I: Billie Holcombe, Sarah Rhodes, Jane Knetzer, Lauralee Richards, Dorothea Nichols, Joan Bleecker, Mr. Henry Busche, Audrey Hasselbacher, Sharon Car rott, Elvira Metzdorf, Barbara Dixon, Virginia Vaughan, Edys Morrow.

OUR COLLEGE CHOIR Among the outstanding musical organizations of which MacMurray ' s School of Music boasts is the MacMurray College choir composed of upper- classmen. The choir was organized m 1929. Sharon Carrott served as this year ' s president; Phyllis Wheeler was the choir ' s vice-president. The secretary was Ferol Vaughn. Patricia Miller kept the financial books in order, and Jean Griswold was the organization ' s librarian. Edys Morrow acted as the choir ' s publicity chairman. Doing much of its work a cappella, the choir rehearses regularly four times weekly under the direction of Mr. Henry Busche. Although chapel speakers held a great deal of our attention this year during the regular Tuesday morning services at Grace Methodist Church, those Tuesday mornings will also be remembered for the beautiful music sung by the college choir that has ap- peared regularly in the chapel services for a number of years. It has become tradition, also, for the choir, joined by the Madrigal Club, to present two vesper services during the year, one at Christmas and one at Easter. Probably the most outstanding program on the choir ' s schedule was the formal concert presented on February 27. The choir gave other performances at Club 13, during Founder ' s Day, commencement, Thanksgiving, and during the dedica- tion ceremonies for Kathryn Hall and the new chapel. Last year, the choir went to St. Louis for a tour, and this year, in May, a tour to Chicago and its surrounding areas was planned to reward a splendid musical organization for its excellent work this year. 93 In 1914, two years after the new organ was installed in the six-year-old Music Hall, the Madrigal Club was begun. Its membership is open to all four classes, although it is an or- ganization largely of freshmen, who are seek- ing to gain the experience that will make them eligible for the choir. This year Madrigal was composed of over seventy-five girls. The di- rector, Miss Lucille Haney, has conducted this group ever since she first came to MacMurray three years ago. The Madrigal Club partici- pated this year, as in other years, in the Christ- mas and Easter vespers and in the Dad ' s Day and spring formal concert programs. The Christmas vespers were presented Sunday eve- ning on December 12 at the Grace Methodist Church. Ancient folk-songs and carols were a large part of the program. Madrigal ' s Dad ' s Day performance was given in conjunction with the band on March 24 and 25. The spring formal concert was presented on Friday, May 6. Madrigal rehearsals this year were held three times a week, and business meetings were presided over ' by President Lynn Haskell. Madrigal ' s vice-president for 1948-1949 was Rosemary Stark. Joan Eastwood served as secretary-treasurer and Grace Yoshioka as librarian. Ingrid Schueren and Janet Marshall acted as joint publicity chairmen. Madrigal ' s accompanists for the year were Carol Ron- chetto and Patricia Tomlin. As one of the major musical organizations on campus, the Madrigal Club has maintained its status this year with the same great success that has typified its activities in the thirty-five years in which it has given pleasure to its MacMurray following.

The junior or- ganization, MacMurray Players, has a long and distinguished history dating back to the Dramatic Club of twenty-five year ago. The Players ' Club is an active organization com- posed of both onstage and backstage talent of the MacMurray Little Theatre, who have demonstrated ability and a continuing interest in the campus theatre. Under the guidance of their sponsor. Dr. Ray E. Holcombe, and Presi- dent Janice Rudolph, the Players presented an interesting and varied schedule of activities at their monthly meetings this past year. The National Collegiate Players, the senior dramatic organization on campus, is a national honorary fraternity with chapters in forty-five colleges and universities in the United States. MacMurray ' s chapter, number thirty-seven, was established in 1944 and took over the tra- ditions of the old Players ' Guild. This year Ferol Vaughn was the able director of the group. N.C.P. ' s sponsor, Dr. Holcombe, was one of the founders of the national organiza- tion and was its first president. N.C.P. ' s yearly activities, similar to those of the Players, end each spring with the traditional May Day breakfast. « 95 ALPHA KAPPA SIGMA On MacMurray ' s campus, there are ten societies. Six of these societies belong to the freshmen and hove become tra- dition along with the Dad ' s Day activities and caroling. The general purpose of the societies is to help the new students get acquainted with others in their class. Alpha Kappa Sigma has, also, as its purpose a threefold individual aim — to encourage individual participation in activities, to further group experi- ence, and to develop loyalty, friendship, and service among its members. The Greek letters, alpha, kappa, and sigma stand for courage, perseverance, and self-control. In 1947, the society won the Achievement Cup. This cup is awarded in Honors Chapel every May to the freshman society that has collected the largest number of total points during the year as based on each individual society member ' s academic standing, membership, and standing in certain clubs, participation in sports, and attendance at society meetings. The society ' s sponsor this year was junior Elizabeth Roup. Alpha Kappa Sigma ' s first meeting of the year was held in Main ' s social room at 9:30 p.m., September 23. Plans and ideas for the activities of the coming year were discussed. On No- vember 8, Julie Hamill was installed as the society ' s president along with Vice-president Nancy Potter, Secretary Jean McKin- ley. Treasurer Allison Mohan, Recorder Connie Eckholm, and Song Leader Lora Jane Sparks. On November 19, Nancy Hoerger was in charge of the society ' s cabin party. Patricia Parson directed the preparations for the faculty coffee. On December 10, Tickless Time by Glaspel and Cook was given by Nancy Floyd, Allison Mohan, Geroldine Westphal, and Joan Briggs under the direction of Elizabeth Roup and marked the high point in the achievements of the society during 1948 and 1949.

The society journeyed to New Salem on November 13 and toured the one-time residence of Abraham Lincoln. Throughout the year, the members of Delta Theta Nu were engaged in everything from plunge parties to bridge games and treks to the P.E. Cabin on the lake. The society gave a cabin party for its members on October 16, and there was one, also, during the second semester on April 29, di- rected by Jane Mailers. During the year, two plunge parties were given, also, with one on October 20. There was bridge in the social room on November 10, after a formal business meeting at which plans were discussed for the society ' s one-act play, Heaven On Earth, by Phyllis Johnson. The play was presented on December 11 in the Little Theatre under the direction of Jeanne Collins. A song contest with Kappa Sigma Theta was planned for the latter part of the year, for which, among other things, each society was to compose a song. Ellen Griffith was in charge of Delta Theta Nu ' s arrangements for the event. On February 4, the members of Delta Theta Nu held their annual formal coffee for the faculty in Main social room. The faculty was received by Polly Page, who was appointed as the society ' s sponsor during the second semester because of the illness of Barbara Griffith. Other members of the reception line were Delta Theta Nu officers, President Genevieve Johnson, Secretary Jean Henson, Recorder Janet Bradley, and Katherine Detring, the chairman of the coffee. Delta Theta Nu ' s vice- president was Colleen Richards, and the treasurer was Bertha Thorsen. A banquet held in the spring at the Dunlap Hotel completed a year of many new experiences for the members of Delta Theta Nu.

EPSILON KAPPA PHI Fran and Sally President Sally Hartwig and Sponsor Frances Mahan spearheaded the active year of the Epsilon Kappa Phi society. Sally Brown was the vice-president, and the secretary was Marcia Crawford. The treasurer was Bobbie McWilliams dur- ing the first semester and Jane Hogan for the second term. Barbara Hetherington was the keeper of the record, while Darlene Johnson led the Kappa Phis in their singing. This past year Epsilon Kappa Phi provided social activity for each of its members and taught them to work together through planning interesting projects for themselves. Please Omit the Flowers was the name of the one-act ploy given by the society on December 9 as a part of the traditional freshman one-act play contests sponsored by the National Collegiate Players. The members of the society were proud to claim a majority of the awards and citations given. Kay Mathers re- ceived five dollars for her part in advertising the play, while Phyllis Reed and Ada Schlegel were awarded certificates for superior acting. Marcia Crawford received a certificate for the best characterization of 1948. The director of the play was junior Sue Skinner. Sally Brown was in charge of the Christ- mas party given for the Kappa Phis. On February 27, Ann Rice arranged a society breakfast, and a cabin party was given March 1 1 . Marcia Crawford furnished a moneymaking idea for her society during Heart Sister Week. A telegram ser- vice for the participants was set up in a booth in the Hub from whicla special deliveries to Heart Sisters were made to Hub mail boxes, through singing telegrams, and by poems written for the purpose of decorating the telegraph blanks themselves. As one of the concluding social activities of the second sem- ester, a coffee for the faculty was given by members of Epsilon Kappa Phi who were truly able to say at their spring banquet that their year had been a happy one. On November 13, members of the freshman society Kappa Sigma Theta went on a very enjoyable visit to New Salem with Delta Theta Nu society members. There was, also, a swimming party during the course of the year and a cabin party, ar- ranged by Kay Yonkee, which sixteen Kappa Sigmas at- tended. A dessert-bridge party was followed by a faculty cof- fee. Earlier, there was a picnic that was attended by members of all of the societies. On December 12, Mary Ann Soules was in charge of a breakfast given for Delta Theta Nu society members, and the spring banquet was arranged by Margaret Mundhenke. On December 9, Kappa Sigma Theta ' s play, A Simple Soul, won the award for the most outstanding of the six given during that week end of contests. The members of the cast, Marilyn Hornbeck, Margie Cameron, Barbara Brandt, and Jean McConohay, were directed by Jane Morrison. Cita- tion for superior acting were given to Jean McConohay and Margie Cameron at dinner the following evening. Junior Eva Jo Schmidt was the 1948-1949 sponsor of Kappa Sigma Theta. A few weeks after school began, the society ' s members elected Ellery Wood as their president, Jean McCono- hay as their vice-president, and Rosemary Stark as their secre-- tary. The society ' s treasurer was Mary Armstrong, and the Greetings representative was Margie Cameron.

PHI KAPPA DELTA Phi Kappa Delta, one of the oldest of the freshman soci- eties, was begun in 1927. President Muriel Shennan, with the assistance of sponsor Mary Jane Norris, has guided the society this year. Other society officers were Mary Lou Olson, vice- president; Jeanne Kaldahl, treasurer; Shirley Deay, secretary; and Greta Ebeling, recorder. During the year, there was a roller skating party, a hayride, a dessert-bridge given in April, and a Christmas party in December at which Susan LaPierre played and a reading was given by Shirley Deay. A cabin party was given on February 26 with the vice-president in charge. There was another in May just before vacation began. During the past year, the Phi Kappa Deltas also attended two movies together and gave a faculty coffee on February 25 that was in the charge of Audrey Newell. As its one-act play. Phi Kappa Delta presented Art and Mrs. Palmer by Glen Hughes. Janice Rudulph directed the performance, Ingrid Schueren, Muriel Shennan, Ruth Barley, Mildred Hierman, Susan LaPierre and Patricia Bray were members of the cast. The Phi Kappas received recognition as the society that sold the most tickets for the plays. Art and Mrs. Palmer was also given for the Junior High School on March 3, and on March 7 it was presented before an out of town church group. Toward the end of the year, a project called King of the Gampus was planned. Pictures of the men friends of MacMurray students were to be submitted to a board of judges chosen from the faculty by the society. From among the applicants, a king of the campus was to be selected. And, as the closing social activity of the year, a banquet was held at the Hotel Dunlap just before the end of the semester in 1949. « 100  Row I: Jane McNeil, Ettabelle Alexander, Barbara Gilkey, Norma Stahl, Polly Armstrong, Edith Ann Heitholt, Rose Mary Heritage, Dorothy Smith, Bette Brooks, Carolyn Neary, Joan Eastwood.

The Phi Taus, under the guidance of their sponsor, Joan Shade, and their president, Barbara Beberstein, participated in a year full of social activities. Right away in September there was a get-acquainted cabin party, and on that first Sunday, the members of Phi Tau Epsilon helped each other to avoid that homesick feeling by having breakfast at the Dunlcrp Hotel and by going to church. During the freshman one-act play contests on December 9 and 10, the Phi Taus gave a party before the performance of their play. Cornel Wilde ' s Playing With Fire. Ferol Vaughn directed the performance with Phyllis Blue, Janis Dillman, and Norma Shaffer in the leading roles. Shirley Gladstone and Helen Forsee headed the plan- ning of a Christmas coffee, while a dessert-bridge was given for the society members during the second semester. The fac- ulty coffee on April 8 and another cabin party on April 9 ended most of the year ' s social activities for the society. The Phi Taus truly carried out their threefold purpose this year of providing group entertainment for members of the freshman class, of pro- viding experience in working and playing together as well as in the art of cooperation, and of providing an opportunity for experience in leadership. Lou Ann Epperson was the society ' s vice-president during the first semester, while Shirley Gladstone served in that capacity in 1949. Edith Heitholt was the treasurer and cabin party chairman. Joan Eastwood carried on the duties of secretary, and the recorder was Laurel Strickfaden.

In April, on the eighth, their coffee was a great success, as was their second semester rushing in February. During the first semester, with Jane Morrison as rush captain, rushing began Septem- ber 25 with Open House in B.L. Hall. On October 15, a formal rush party was held in the club room at the Hotel Dunlap, while October 16 saw an informal rush party at Potter ' s Farm. On October 18, bidding was held and a party in The Hub was given for the new pledges, followed by table parties that night in the dining hall. On November 29, the pledges gave a party for the actives at the P.E. cabin with the theme, B.L. Bowry, predominating. December 1 and 2 finished the initiation period of ribbon-wearing and bed-making, and formal initiation was held in the evening of December 2 after the dining hall table parties. This year, B.L. acted, also, as a counselor group for a troop of Girl Scouts in Jacksonville. Carolyn Kirkwood was the society ' s president for 1948-1949. The vice- president was Jane Lonergan, the recording secretary, Mary Henson. Phyllis Wheeler was the corresponding secretary, and Ann Mellinger was the treas- urer. The program chairman was Lois Chin, and the position of keeper of the archives fell to Marion Lair. Belles Lettres society was founded in 1851 and claims the distinction of being the oldest literary society on campus. Plans are being discussed now for a centennial celebration in 1951. Yellow and white are the society ' s colors. The yellow rose is its flower, and its emblem is the shield. The members of Belles Lettres society have, throughout the year, steadfastly upheld the pur- pose of their society which is to enhance the social and cultural lives of its members.

LAMBDA Lambda Alpha Chi was organized on Founder ' s Day, 1912. As the youngest society, its aims are that of emphasizing the highest ideals of character, scholarship, and personal achievement, of promoting friendship, and of representing MacMurray College worthily as a campus organization. The translation of the Greek letters, lambda, alpha, and chi, is the society ' s motto — Let us sing of somewhat nobler things, let us strike a higher strain. The insignia of the society is a gold shield set with pearls that bear the society ' s Greek letters. Lambda ' s flower is the Talisman Rose. Lambda pledges can be identified by their ribbons of lavender and white, the society ' s colors. Lambda ' s officers are chosen by a two-thirds quorum of the group. This year, Margareta Lou Smith was president with Eva Jo Schmidt acting as vice-president. Joan Foster was the recording secretary, and Norma Mason was the corresponding secretary. Treasurer was Claudia Preston, and the rush captains for the year were Margaret Harvey and Jodie Bleecker, who carried out the rush party themes of Sophisticated Lady and Gingham Girl very successfully. A party for the actives was given by the pledges on November 19, followed by formal initiation proceedings a few days later. Dur- ing the second semester, Elvira Metzdorf was in charge of the rush party. Serenades were given, and a newsletter was compiled. An alumnae coffee was held on February 18 in Lambda Hall of which the society ' s members had good reason to be proud by reason of its having been completely redecorated and refurnished. The year ' s activities were ended with the annual spring banquet held at the Hotel Dunlap. Lambda also sponsored, during the year, a Girl Scout Troop in Jacksonville under the leadership of Jay Novelli, Elizabeth Wass, and Marjorie Broderick. Floor: Virginia Vaughan, Barbara Bennett.

As did her sister societies, Phi Nu began her year ' s activities with rushing. Phi Nu ' s open house was held on September 25 followed by formal rushing ceremonies climaxed by a banquet held at the Christian Church on Oc- tober 5 enacting the theme, A Cruise On The S.S. Phi Nu. A Tour Through Foreign Lands was the interesting subject of the informal rush party at the P.E. cabin on October 16. On November 23, the twenty-seven Phi Nu pledges gave the actives a party in Jane Hall ' s smoker, following a program dictated by the phrase, a comic party. Grace Sitter was the chair- man of this affair. Formal initiation for the first semester was completed on December 2 in Phi Nu Hall with President Martha Moon presiding. After the candlelight ceremony, each active took her former pledge sister downtown for refreshments. During the two days preceding the initiation, the pledges were dressed in the traditional black and carried gifts for the ac- tives. On December 13, Frances Mahan was in charge of the society ' s Christmas Toyland party at which the senior actives were guests. Nancy Wheeler was Santa Clous in a skit de- picting the night before Christmas. Phi Nu president, Martha Moon, was assisted in her duties in 1948 and 1949 by Vice-president Margaret Anne Smith. Frances Mahan was the recording secretary for this year, and Eliza- beth Roup served as corresponding secretary. Renee Fassero saw that dues were collected and recorded. The senior rush captain was Janice Rudulph, the junior captain, Margaret Porter. Mary Council was elected as pledge mother. One of the projects carried out by the Phi Nu ' s this year was that of collecting clothes for the Junior and Senior High School children in Jacksonville. The society climaxed its year of activity with an alumnae coffee n April 30, fol- lowed a few weeks later by the annual spring banquet.

THETA SIGMA Senior Virginia Murphy officiated as Theta Sigma ' s president this year. Mary Ellen Potter -was vice-president, and the recording secre- tary was Vivian Lynch. Sharane Reddick served as the corresponding secretary, v hile Mary Jane Norris acted as treasurer. Audrey Hasselbacher was the society ' s literary chair- man. Rushing was in the hands of Corrine Schwarzenbacher and Joan Cresswell, senior and junior rush captains, respectively. Theta ' s members are easily recognized by their shield- shaped pin, by their colors, black, gold, and crimson, and through the song which they sing, Remember. At their first meeting in the fall on September 20, Theta ' s members made plans to begin the rushing activities of the semester by holding open house on September 25. Rush books were delivered to rushees on October 12, and pledge notices were presented to happy pledges on the 18th. A P.E. cabin party center- ing around the theme Round-Up was held on October 15, and on October 16, the banquet room at the Dunlap was turned into a Diamond Horseshoe. The Theta pledge party enter- tained the actives the last of November, and on the night of November 26, Theta actives and their dates went on a hayride and cabin party arranged by Mary Ellen Potter. Mr. and Mrs. Robert Bullington acted as chaperons. Theta Hall was the scene of a Christmas party on December 13 at which time Sherry Reddick gave readings, Santa appeared, and there was group singing as well as the serving of refreshments. Immediately after spring vaca- tion, the Thetas began working on plans for their Theta alumnae coffee, which was a great success on April 22. Theta Hall was redecor- ated and refurnished this year with new sec- tional couches and new lamps. The society members are working now on plans for phil- anthropic activities. Their purpose is to benefit a worthy cause and at the same time to bring members of the society closer together by promoting the spirit of cooperation.

The Inter-society Council members are the presidents and vice- presidents of the four societies. The president of the council for 1948 and 1949 was Jane Lon- ergan, the vice-president of Belles Lettres. The council ' s secretary-treasurer was the president of Belles Lettres, Carolyn Kirkwood. With Mrs. Roma N. Hawkins as its adviser, the council met twice a month for the purpose of deciding such matters as rushing dates and other things of concern to all four societies.

Campus Community Cliest Seated: loon Bevirt, Norma Mason, Jane Hynds, Audrey Rasmus, Vi- vian Lynch. Standing: Ruth Schildman, Margaret Leaverton, Marilyn Knox, Marcia Crawford. The Campus Community Chest was formed in 1947. It has as its purpose the coordinating into one of all of the previously separate drives sponsored among the students by various cam- pus organizations. The group is composed of representatives from all four classes. With Clarendon Smith as their adviser and Norma Mason and Jane Hynds as co-chairmen, the members of the board of 1948-1949 centered the activities of a busy year in the month of November. The freshmen won the Campus Community Chest drive contest. Their queen was Janet Marshall. Ruth Schildman was the chairman of the All-School Drive. The month was completed by the Faculty Auction featur- ing Mr. Smith as the able auctioneer. The board then distributed the collected money to the various needy causes. « 110 « The Campus Red Cross Committee met once every two weeks, this year, under the di- rection of committee chairman Rosemary Finger. Mary Tracy was the vice-chairman, and Beverly Klove acted as secretary-treasurer. The activities of the committee are financed by the National Red Cross. The annual MacMur- ray talent show at the State Hospital was planned again for 1949 under the Red Cross Committee ' s guidance, and the Christmas party for the crippled and underprivileged children of Jacksonville was met with characteristic enthusiasm. The Committee assisted the Y.W. C.A. in packing UNESCO boxes as well as sending overseas boxes abroad, a project that left rewarding memories with those people participating.

The organization keeps regular con- tact between the city ' s churches and the college and helps to make religion an integral part of life on the campus throughout the year. The committee ' s primary aim is to revitalize campus Christian living. With the Reverend McKend- ree Blair as its adviser, the group also spon- sored Religious Emphasis Week from February 21 to 24. The speaker for the week was the editor of Motive magazine, Mr. Harold A. Ehrensberger. During the summer, members of the committee will correspond with the stu- dent body. « 111  Seated: Shirley Dobbins, Barbara Wiebmer, Allison Mohan, Vivian Lynch, Leah Geil, Marion Lair, Mary Lee Blumer.

A. C. E. To begin a busy year, new members of MacMurray ' s Association for Childhood Edu- cation received their yellow and blue pledge ribbons October 9. The Dunlap Hotel was the scene of the annual A.C.E, banquet held on November 30 with Joyce Renfro as chairman. There, the A.C.E. pledges replaced their rib- bons with a pin and also heard an address by Dr. D. G. Blodgett, the superintendent of Jack- sonville ' s public schools. Leah Geil served as chairman of the Association ' s annual kinder- garten operetta on March 12. The cast of this production is made up entirely of the children from the MacMurray kindergarten. Members of the A.C.E. wrote the script and produced the play composed of familiar stories of childhood. On October 16, Laverne Powell represented MacMurray at the state A.C.E. meeting held in Peoria. Dolores Walder, Barbara Goiens, Shir- ley Porter, Carol Fosdick, and Billie Holcombe also attended the meeting. This year ' s A.C.E. programs included addresses by Mrs. Guy of the college ' s art department and McKendree M. Blair, professor of religion at MacMurray. One of the highlights of the 2nd semester was the annual demonstration by the Deaf School. Sponsored by the Association, the demonstra- tion was held on Feb. 7. At the head of this year ' s group of sixty A.C.E. members was Barbara Wiebmer, a senior. The vice-president was Dorothea Nich- ols and the secretary, Vivian Lynch. The treas- urer was Mary Berles. The Association ' s sponsor is Miss Ellen Nudd. The Association for Childhood Education was formed in 1930 by the merging of two organizations of teachers of young children. The MacMurray branch of the A.C.E. grew out of a departmental organization known as the Kindergarten Club. On March 18, 1937, the club ' s members decided to join the national A.C.E. and did so on October 18 of the same year. The primary purpose of the organization is to offer teachers a professional association devoted exclusively to the advancement of progressive childhood education. 112 I. R.C The International Relations Club has been a part of campus life at MacMurray since 1931. The I.R.C. has had as its goal the development of a wider international viewpoint as the only- effective way in which world harmony and happiness can be achieved. The immediate objective of the club is to acquire a deeper and a broader knowledge of world affairs and of the people behind them as a step toward possible world understanding. The club ' s pro- gram this year placed emphasis upon the psy- chology of the peoples of various nations rather than upon international political problems. I.R.C. members believe that it is not sufficient to know the world policies of a nation because too often the bare knowledge of a nation ' s policies can lead to serious misunderstanding. Consequently they studied the thinking and acting of the peoples of many countries as a way to a better understanding of them. This year, as in previous years, I.R.C. members conducted their own meetings which featured outside speakers as well as group discussions. For instance, the club ' s first meeting of the year, held on October 14, was concerned with hearing a student panel discussion of The Berlin Crisis, while, on December 6, Mr. Paul Rowland spoke upon the topic, The Psychol- ogy of the Russian People. The club met dur- ing the school year on the first Monday night of every month, while News Round Ups were held every Tuesday night at 6:45. Norma Mason was the president of the International Rela- tions Club this year. The vice-president was Phyllis Wheeler with Barbara Keller performing the office of secretary-treasurer. The club, a national one, sponsored by the Carnegie En- dowment for International Peace, had as its faculty adviser, Dr. Victor Sheppard.

A baked bean supper ' and one at which only foreign foods were served preceded two of them. At others, outside speakers gave talks of interest to the club, and the club members, themselves, sometimes presented the programs. The club ' s last meetmg of the year was in the form of a picnic for the seniors in the group, and the officers for next year were also elected then. At Christmas each year, clothing is col- lected from Home Economics Club members and given to needy families in Jacksonville. Money is also donated which buys either a Christmas dinner for a local family or else is sent to Europe through one of the international relief agencies. Through the World Friendship Among Children Organization, Home Eco- nomics Club members have sent many gifts to children in Europe. This year, the money that was collected was sent to Care for blankets for a family in Belgium. The Home Economics Club at MacMurray is affiliated with both the state and the Ameri- can Home Economics Associations. The club ' s purpose IS that of keeping informed of the work of the national association and of the oppor- tunities in the various areas in the home eco- nomics field as well as of getting acquainted within its own ranks. The Home Economics Club ' s officers for 1948-1949 were Mary Million, president; Marion Veath, vice-president; Phyl- lis Lambert, secretary; Mary Levi, treasurer; and Margaret Street, publicity chairman. The club ' s adviser was Miss Mate L. Giddings. Mariana Byerly, Ida Miller. Sofa: Margaret Street, Mary Million, Miss Mate L. Giddings, Phyllis Lambert, Joan Lmt.

The Jacksonville Club The Jacksonville Club has a fourfold aim, which is to promote unity among its members, to help introduce resident students of the col- lege to Jacksonville and its citizens, to endeavor to keep in contact with Jacksonville Club alum- nae, and to develop and maintain friendly relations and understanding between the col- lege and the residents of Jacksonville. With Miss Elsa Kimball as their adviser, the mem- bers of the club completed a year of busy activity under the leadership of senior Jean Sturm. Their 1949 vice-president was Ardeen DeFrates. Sue Meyers and Marjorie Doolin were the secretary and treasurer, respectively. Esther Wilding served as the group ' s program chairman, while Dorothy Goebel acted as the chairman of publicity. Evelyn Lovekamp was installed as keeper of the archives, and Ruth Schildman represented the club on the Campus Community Chest Committee. At the beginning of the year, the senior town girls presented their president with a gavel, and on September 27, the freshmen club members were entertained by old members at their annual picnic at the P.E. cabin. Later on, a trip was made under the guidance of Esther Wilding to a University of Illinois football game. Another get-acquainted party for the freshmen was given on the 21st of October, and on November 6, the members of the Jacksonville Club went on a hayride and wiener roast to Lake Jacksonville. Afterwards, they went to the P.E. cabin for dancing and games. Joan Foster saw to it that everyone had a good time. The advent of the Christmas sea- son was celebrated on December 13 with a party in the Town House. Agnes Johnson was in charge of the arrangements. Mary Jane Smith sang, and the girls exchanged gifts. Throughout the year, supper meetings were held once a month at the Town House. And, to complete the social year, a formal dance was held May 7. 1914 saw the formal beginning of a club composed of students attending MacMurray from Jacksonville. Miss Kimball has been the club ' s advisor for ten years. Formerly, Janet McClelland was the group ' s counselor. Mrs. Louise Gates Eddy, the wife of the famous the- ologian, Sherwood Eddy, is an alumna of Jack- sonville and a former member of the club. It is of interest to know that long ago, in the 1890 ' s, students from Jacksonville were regarded with suspicion. Not so today. Any student resident on campus is pleased to receive an invitation to visit the Town House, a proof that the Jack- sonville Club is very successfully carrying out its aims. « 115  Seated: Joan Shade, Jane Gay Fairbank, Howard Hansen, Barbara Griffith, Jeanne Col- lins.

Hansen, the campus radio station workship has developed into an active organization requiring a basic staff of seven people whose job it is, under the advice and guidance of Mr. Hansen, to keep the station on the air five days a week through the coordination of the six radio departments and with the aid of student personnel specially chosen for their ability in one or more of these departments. Jane Gay Fairbank was the sta- tion manager for 1948-1949. It was her demand- ing job to see that the making of over-all deci- sions was attended to promptly. The controls department was under the guidance of Jeanne Collins whose task it was to press the right levers and turn the right dials so that the efforts of the announcers, under the supervision of Barbara Griffith, would be heard by students who had their radio dial tuned to 570. Joan Shade, as the head of the continuity depart- ment, saw to it that the scripts were written by her staff and reproduced by station typist, Marjorie Sheppard, while Marilyn Miles ' music department selected the music and kept the records in order with the assistance of Sally Hartwig, secretary and filing clerk. The news and special events department, supervised by Muriel Knudsen, kept the student world in- formed about what was happening outside the campus limits and handled the programs classi- fied as special events. The presence and activity of the radio station was brought to the constant attention of the students by the efforts of Jacquelyn Wright in charge of publicity. During the week end of November 6, the radio staff gave a demonstration of its working pro- cedure before members of the annual Illinois Speech Convention. Throughout the year, a varied assortment of regular and feature pro- grams designed for the listening pleasure of the students was broadcast, with the annual Christmas broadcast of request music marking a highlight to another year of successful opera- tion. 116 THE SCRIBBLERS CLUB Founded to encourage writing among the students of MacMurray College, the Scribblers Club was begun in 1924. This year ' s chief scribe was junior Patricia Heiken. Her aid was Vice-President Joan Foster, a senior. Sopho- more Barbara Brokaw had the dual job of keeping the books for the club and of record- ing the minutes of the meetings held every other Tuesday night. To these meetings, Scrib- blers bring their writings which they read to the other members in order to hear criticism and receive advice about their work. Scrap- books, called Archives by club members, contain writings which have been selected as being the best and most typical of the work of Scribblers of the past and present. In the course of an average year, the Scribblers con- duct an all-school literary contest whose re- sults they publish in their annual magazine, Inkspirations. Winner ' s of this contest are pre- sented with cash awards during the last chapel in the spring. Persons wishing to join the club are given the opportunity to submit examples of their work to the club members, at the begin- ning of each semester. Because the constitu- tion of the club limits membership to twenty, standards are high in regard to the quality of the work submitted. Informal initiation consists of the wearing of a feather in the hair of each new member. She must also arise early on initiation day to pin samples of her writing upon the campus trees. Formal initiation is completed by the taking of a vow in the words, 1 swear uoon my honor to scribble till I die, smear ink upon my fingers and write verses to the sky. On March 6, the Scribblers held their annual Open Meeting at which each member presented her best effort of the year. The meeting was broadcast over the campus sta- tion, WMMC, and under the able guidance of their adviser. Miss Dorothy Burrows, brought to its height in 1949 another successful year for the Scribblers. Row I: Muriel Knudsen and lean Sturm.

At that time, it chose for its colors, black and gold, for its flower, the yellow rose, and for its purpose, to promote interest in the business world, and to encourage a social spirit among its members by offering them op- portunities for extensive social activity. Spon- sored by Mr. Wilson and Mrs. Fatten of the business department, the members of the club, in 1949, not only observed their motto of con- stant progress but carried out the aims of their organization as well. Mary Henson was this year ' s president. Julia Underwood served as vice-president. Elizabeth Friedle was the treas- urer of the club, and Helen Van Emden kept the minutes of meetings. Jean Schussele and Beverly Jolly were co-chairmen in charge of the club ' s programs. Tironian is another organization whose ac- tivities keep its members occupied and well- entertained. Tironian ' s activities this year in- cluded a coffee in the fall for new members and their subsequent initiation. There was a Christ- mas party and a Valentine party, followed by a cabin party. During the last few years, it has become a custom for the club to make an all day trip to some point of interest. One year, the club ' s members visited St. Louis and were conducted through the stock exchange and the Federal Reserve Bank. On March 19, the an- nual spring banquet of the club was held, and the loving cup was presented to the freshman Tironian who had maintained the highest scho- lastic average during the first semester. In May, as a climax to the year ' s program, a picnic was held at the P.E. cabin. Throughout the past nine months, Tiron- ian ' s programs were interesting and varied, and with the close of this school term, there was no member of the Tironian Club who could not look back upon a satisfying year. « 118 Top: Chucky and the horse are having a battle of wills.
