I i JOELLA DECELL Editor LOIS BARTON Business Manager PUBUSHED BY THE JUNIOR CLASS, MACMURRAY COLLEGE FOR WOMEN JACKSONVILLE, ILLINOIS We live and work at MacMurray with our college motto. Knowledge, Faith, and Service as our guide. These are more than three words to us — they are a way of life. Though a single publication can hardly convey all our thoughts and feelings concerning our college, we have tried to highlight these MacMurray ideals in the 1953 niiwoco. Ann Rutledge Hall Kathryn Hall Music Hall ADMINISTRATION CLASSES FACULTY arolyn Glawson Oak Ridge, Tennessee twenty - seven Years MacMurroY College today is the culmination of twenty-seven years of one man ' s work, hopes and dreams. Dr. Clarence P. McClelland, President Emeritus, is an inseparable part of all that MacMur- ray means to her thousands of alumnae. The very name of the college is a reminder that it was Dr. McClelland who is largely responsible for Senator MacMurray ' s generous endowment, and the resulting change of the school ' s name from Illinois Women ' s College to MacMurray College for Women. Down the long line of MacMurray s distinguished presidents it is difficult to find a single man who has given of his own life and personality to so great on extent. The very character of life on this campus is reminiscent of Dr. McClelland ' s gift for pleasant, gracious living. In his fourteenth year at MacMurray, Dr. McClel- land stated as his desire for MacMurray, that it shall be a college as unique and excellent in its educational work and its spiritual life as the new buildings which have recently been erected; that, year by year, there shall go forth from its halls a select group of young women, physically efficient, sound in moral principle, accustomed to co-operative effort, with minds alert and well-informed, and with a living faith in God, prepared and eager to invest their lives for the beautifying and betterment of the world. We here know that he has given us invaluable aid in fulfilling his hopes for MacMurray. In the upper left comer of this page, Dr. Mac is shown with Mrs. Kalhryn MacMurroy, examining saddle bags that belonged to Peter Cartwright, one of the college founding fathers. Immediately below, Mrs. MacMurray, wife of the college ' s most dis- tinguished benefactor. Dr. McClelland, retiring presi- dent, and Dr. Louis W. Norris, MacMurray ' s ninth president, stand on the steps of MacMurray Hall just before the inauguration ceremonies on September 24. Dr. McClelland is next pictured as he addressed the inauguration banquet on the same day. THE HISTORY OF MacMURRAY COLLEGE, by Dr. Mary Watters, in the lower left corner of the page, was published in 1947, and is here opened to a picture of Senator MacMurray. The inaugura- tion procession, viewed from an upstairs window, ascends the steps of beautiful Annie Merner Chapel the crowning achievement of Dr. McClelland ' s building program. The 1953 Illiwoco staff are proud to dedicate our book to Dr. McClelland in recognition of his monumental gift to us — our Alma Mater. Mrs. MacMurray confers the office of President of MacMurray College upon Dr. Louis W. Norris during in- augural ceremonies in Annie Merner Chapel. T ie Torch Is Dr. Louis William Norris, the ninth president of MacMurray, was inaugurated on November 24, 1952. He was already well-known and well- loved by the time he was officially installed. Dr. and Mrs. Norris have brought a graciousness and warmth to our campus that have won them secure places in the hearts of all our students. Suppers, teas, and informal gatherings have confirmed our first impression that these two grand people are sincere in their interest in every girl. Dr. Norris is a man who believes, as he stated in his first address to the faculty, that Teaching is fun! This man has helped to create the new spirit of growth and activity that pervades our campus and our classrooms. Through his own personality he has poised us all, faculty and students, on the starting line. We wait, expectant and ready to move onward. Dr. McClelland ' s twenty-seven years of service, with his great strides in the expansion of MacMurray ' s campus are the foundation on which the new president will build. We turn to Dr. Norris with certainty — knowing that he will carry our college forward to fulfillment of all our fond dreams. 16 The ' D eans DEAN WENDELL DYSINGER Academic Dean of Students Since 1940 MacMurray students have been taking their academic and vocational problems to Dr. Wen- dell S. Dysinger, Dean of the College and Director of Personnel. Not only does Dean Dysinger have the job of counseling Mac girls, he also serves on national educational committees of various kinds and has travelled extensively addressing conventions throughout the country. In addition to these diversified activities, Dr. Dysinger has written numerous pamphlets concerned with vocation- al guidance. Yet, busy as he is, Dean Dysinger always finds time to advise with MacMurray girls, thus aiding them both for the present and for the future. Dean Wendell Dysinger DEAN ROMA HAWKINS Dean of Women Mrs. Hawkins ' charm and warm sincerity have endeared her to hundreds of MacMur- ray girls. Throughout her twenty-two years of service to the girls on this campus she has been an ever active counselor, advisor, and friend. She is counselor for the Students Association, Y.W.C.A., Junior Class, and Fire Captain. The campus freshmen and upper- class literary societies, and the Founders ' Day, Thanksgiving, and Dad ' s Day pro- grams are all guided by Mrs. Hawkins. The orientation lectures and classes in Old Testa- ment History in the summer session are included in her busy round of activities. An irreplaceable part of MacMurray will go with Mrs. Hawkins when she retires at the end of this year. Mrs. Hawkins MR. E. CLARENDON SMITH Business Manager Maintenance of the buildings, em- ployment of non-academic personnel, and control of the budget are jobs that rest on the shoulders of Mr. E. Clarendon Smith, who has been Business Manager of MacMurray College for many years. In addition to assisting the Illiwoco Busi- ness Staff, Mr. Smith is also the adminis- tration ' s able representative on the Com- munications Board. Mr. Smith, although associated mainly with administrative duties, has numerous outside contacts with the students and the people of Jack- sonville, where he has gained the respect of all who know him. MR. SPENCER LANE Director of Admissions Mr. Spencer Lane came to MacMurray as Director of Admissions on December 9, 1952 from Westminster College, Fulton, Missouri. He heads the staff of field representatives, who help to introduce prospective students to MacMurray life and traditions. Mr. Lane approves all applications for admission and supervises distribution of college literature to all interested persons. Mr. Lane and his charming wife have already become well- loved on the MacMurray campus. MR. GORDON L. HOPPER Director of Publicity The office of Public Relations, newly created this year, has as its first director, Mr. Gordon Hopper. Mr. Hopper comes to MacMurray from the office of the Division of Reports, a state government position. Having as his primary responsibility the promotion of Mac- Murray College with the public in general, Mr. Hopper has such jobs as the preparation of pamphlets, news releases, and radio releases. Mr. Hopper received his A.B. from Illinois Wesleyan in 1946 and his Ll.B. from Lincoln College of Law this year. Tke racultij W. F. Bailey. B.S., M.S., Ph.D., Chemistry Hugh Beggs.

House Wiothers The second mothers of all girls on the MacMurray campus are the house mothers. In addition to supervising our dormitory life, they are ever willing sources of counsel and guidance for each girl. The freshmen have two house mothers: Mrs. Mabel Smith on Second Mam and Mrs. Fanny Anderson on Third Mam. Mrs. Smith has served MacMurray for twelve years, while Mrs. Anderson has been on our campus for four years. Besides carrying out her duties as house mother, Mrs. Anderson is freshmen class adviser. House mother of Jane Hall, the sophomore dormitory, is Mrs. Lillian Blount. Mother Blount has held this position for seven years. It was with great regret that we heard of the retirement of Mrs. Florence Bayliss, house mother of Kathryn Hall, the junior dormitory. Mother B leaves Mac- Murray at the end of this school year with a record of twelve years of outstanding guidance and service. During Mother B ' s illness this winter, the duties of house mother fell to Mrs. Humphries, receptionist of Kathryn Hall, who capably took over in the emergency. Mrs. Humphries retired January I, 1953, after serving Mac for eight years. The senior girls, who reside in Rutledge Hall, are under the supervision of Mrs. Myrtle Walraven. In addition to these duties, Mrs. Walraven also serves as Director of Student Employment. She has been a member of the Mac family for nine years. The girls at Mac know that the house mothers can be counted on to loyally support all their class functions. Understanding and helpful interest on their part build real friendships between girls and the house mothers. i « 26  raduate Students The division of graduate studies at MacMurray includes work in the departments of psychology and physical education, for which the college grants the degrees of Master of Arts and Master of Science. Heading the graduate school in psychology is Dr. H. M, Halverson, while Dr. Elizabeth Rearick directs the work of the Physical Education graduate students. Included in the activities of the Physical Education group is the teaching of service classes. This year there were five girls working for the Master of science degree. They were Miss Joan Phillip and Miss Beverly Swanson, who received their B.S. degrees from Western Michigan College of Education, Kalamazoo; Miss Bonnie Walker, B.S., from Lincoln Memorial University at Harrogate, Tennessee; Miss Carol Widule, B.S., from Monmouth College at Monmouth, Illinois; and Miss Marie Feller, B.S., from MacMurray College in the Class of 1952. There were three girls working for the Master of Arts degree in psychology: Norma Aguilar, Ll.B. from the University of the Philippines at Manila; Carolyn Collins, A.B. from Millsaps College at Jackson, Mississippi; and Anne McCarthy. A.B. from Coe College at Cedar Rapids, Iowa. « 27  Senior htistory They were seniors. It seemed only yesterday they had entered college. The senior year, too, passed quickly in a swirl of events. A big day was the inauguration of our new President, when for the first time, the seniors donned their caps and gowns and walked proudly down the chapel aisle. October found the sophomores dressed in white ready to honor their sister class. This day, after weeks of singing the song to themselves, they sang the traditional and moving Mammy Moon . For the first time in the history of MacMurray College the Patricia Lanahon Sch welter award was given to honor a girl for her creative work; Ruth Dryden was chosen this year. The two members of the MacMurray College Honor Society, Carolyn Clawson and Jerry Wood were presented to the students and faculty. November was an eventful month for the senior class. The Senior Tea, planned by Evelyn Darling, opened the activities. Seniors, their parents and faculty met and chatted in Rutledge lounge. Next on the list of November activities was Senior Cut Day. On a crisp morning the seniors left to spend an exciting day in St. Louis. Thanks- giving weekend, the highlight of which was the Senior Ball, Shellemer, began with the senior serenade on Thanksgiving morning. In the underwater world of Shellemer Queen Pat Kohl; attendants, Evelyn Darling and Carrie Shands were honored. The planning for graduation began — the Green Grass for Commencement , send- ing of announcements, the farewell dinner and the presentation of May Court. Four years gone so quickly] And then it was THE Day — Commencement. First row: Donna Summers, Miss Brookhort, Mary Jean Jackson.

Weeks passed and Senior Cut Day finally arrived. It was a great day for the juniors, who were allowed to sit at senior tables, sing the junior songs, and take over the senior corner in the Hub. In December the juniors were recognized. The freshmen formed an honor line in chapel, were hostesses at table parties and completed the day with a serenade. The annual Christmas dorm party was next, with carol singing, skits, and gifts. Let ' s Pretend was THE event of February. Barbara Hanks was chairman of this successful prom, representing a make-believe land with its candy trees, ginger-bread house and fairy castle. Also in February the juniors were luncheon guests of President and Mrs. Norris. The luncheons were a splendid way of getting acquainted with the Norris family. The sister class of the juniors was recognized in April with table-parties and a serenade given by the juniors. May ushered in many events — one of the most important was the traditional junior project. Lantern Drill, which was performed just before the crowning of the May Queen. Throughout the year the juniors held informal coffees for the freshmen for the purpose of promoting sister class friendship. Avis Jean McCutchan was the able chair- man of these get-togethers. Also during the year the class put out the MacMurray Directories, of which Peggy Cook was in charge. The Juniors were sorry to say good-bye at the close of the year both to Mother Bayliss and to Mrs. Hawkins, house motner and class advisor respectively. Officers for the year of 1952-53 were: Lee Berkenkamp, president; Jo Winstead, vice-president; Bonnie Stone, secretary; Myra Ku, treasurer; and Jane Brown, R.A. representative. Seated: Elizabeth Berkenkamp.

Initiation of the freshmen was the first important event of the year. The initiation committee, consisting of Chairman Cheryl Kupper, Anne Conklin, Mary Ruppert, Juan- ita Lorance, Carolyn Tucker, and Virginia Hall, conducted the proceedings with the right mixture of efficiency and fun. The last day of initiation dawned to the tune of loud brays and snorts, for the freshmen were depicting Election Day as elephants and donkeys. Twenty freshmen, whose birthdays happened to fall on the same days as those of statesmen were chosen to be Gluh Girls. Harvest Holiday rolled ' round, and with it the dance, on the theme Harvest Moon . Barbara Schroder was chairman for this event. Joy Arthaud directed activities for Senior Recognition Day in November; then came the senior dance, Shellemer , with sophomores chosen for the honor line. February saw the climax of lots of hard ' work for the sophomores in the form of their project, Out of the Lamp , based on the theme Knowledge, Faith, and Service , and set in the time of the Arabian Nights. Under the guidance of Anne Conklin the class scored a deserved success. Finishing up sopho- more activities, Jane Doyle, as chairman, directed the preparations for the sophomore dance in March, with the theme, Lavenesque . Cheryl Kupper and Annette Grogan were elected as Editor and Business Manager respectively, of the Illiwoco for 1953-54. ' First row: Virginia Morton, Miss Wilkins.

College life began with initiation! Election Day, theme of the last day of initiation, found girls dressed as elephants and donkeys. That night they threw off their green ribbons and took the MacMurray colors of blue and gold. Early in December the freshmen lined the chapel aisle to honor their sister class. That evening the class serenaded the juniors to add a suitable ending to a lovely day. Thanksgiving came, bringing with it the Army-Navy hockey game. Eight freshmen were on the army team. December arrived in a flurry of parties, gifts, and plays. Jt was during the month of December that the six freshmen societies staged the plays on which they had worked so hard. In February the juniors chose thirty freshmen to pretend with them. It was a proud honor line that held wands for Prom Princess Peggy Cook to pass underneath. Perhaps the most important activity of all to the freshmen of 1952-53 was the class project which was also held in February. Carol Simms and Carol Michles were co-chairmen nf the activity which was entitled Carramba Capers . After spring vacation the freshmen had their class dance. On Dad ' s Day Epsilon Kappa Phi presented its one-act play, Sunday Costs Five Pesos , which had won the honors of freshmen one-act plays. With the end of the semester the freshmen were ready for the activities of their sophomore year. First row: Ruth Johnson, Morgy Kovach.

Who ' s Who One more Who ' s Who Among Students in American Universities and Colleges has selected top quality seniors for recognition. This official annual directory of dis- tinguished students, published since 1934, has as its purpose the creation of a single national basis of recognizing college students, without financial obligation on their part. Recognition by Who ' s Who involves, first of all, being officially recommended by the university or college the student attends and then accepted by the organization. Among the hundreds of students from universities and colleges all over the nation, chosen for recognition in the 1952-53 edition, are MacMurray seniors Beverly Davis, who is climaxing four active years on the campus as second vice-president of the Students Association; Carolyn Clawson, who finishes four active years with the honors of membership in Cap Gown and election to the MacMurray Honor Society during her senior year; Georgia Halliburton, 1952-53 chairman of the Students Orientation Service, who has been active in class and extra-curricular activities; Pat Holle, an active Recre- ation Association member, who finishes the year as president of that organization and as a member of Cap Gown; Mary Korsmeyer, who served this year as editor-in-chief of the Greetings and is in Cap Gown; Nan Lund, also a member of Cap Gown, who has centered her four years of activity around WMMC— the campus radio station, and who served as manager of the station for 1952-53; Ann Noonan, President of the Students Association, who has served on the Students Association Board for each of her four years at MacMurray; and Sharon Smith, whose chief interest at MacMurray has been YWCA and who served as President of that organization for 1952-53, also a mem- ber of Cap Gown. 70  (5a p ana jOwn Honors Chapel is over, and in a flash of white, the Juniors have lined up on either side of the Chapel walk — black-robed seniors behind them — as on the Chapel steps stand the five members of Cap and Gown waiting to proclaim the newly elected members. Excitement mounts as the five members solemnly walk up and down the lines of tense Juniors, for who among the waiting girls would not covet membership in this honor group? Suddenly a girl is snatched from the ranks— and another— and another! Who are these girls? On what basis are they chosen? What makes them so outstanding? Cap and Gown is an honorary organization composed of five senior girls who exemplify the college motto — Knowledge, Faith, and Service — plus possessing outstand- ing ability in both curricular and extra-curricular activities. These are the girls who have worked, studied, and played hard, with the enthusiasm we look for in Mac- Murray students. As each girl is chosen, she is presented with a rose, a mortar-board, and a kiss, symbols of friendship, honor, and sisterhood. Juniors who received the symbols of Cap and Gown for the year of 1952-53 included Carolyn Clawson, a chem- istry major, who was Judicial Director of Student Government Association this year, and who was made a member of the MacMurray Honor Society; Pat Holle, Physical Education major, who served this year as president of the Recreation Association; Nan Lund, Manager of WMMC, a radio major who has spent a lot of time at that station; Mary Korsmeyer, an economics major, who is the 1952-53 editor of Greetings; and Sharon Smith, Physical Education major and head of MacMurray ' s Y.W.C.A. Patricia Holle, Carolyn Clawson, Mary Korsmeyer, Nancy Lund, Sharon Smith IR earick Tro BARBARA DEWITT Racine, Wisconsin ay Qourt Friday, May 29, marked the beginning of the commencement weekend activities. The Lantern Drill, a junior project, was first on the agenda, followed by the traditional song con- test. The highlight of the evening was the crowning of the May Queen, Suzanne Emer- son, and her court. The 1953 May Court consisted of the maid of honor, Sharon Smith, and six attendants to the queen — Evelyn Dar- ling, Georgia Halliburton, Betty Japp, Carey Shands Lane, Ann Noonon, and Wilma Spriggs. The queen and her court also reigned over the May Dance which was held the follow- ing evening. May 30. SENIOR QUEEN Mrs. Patricia Kowalsld Kohl was crowned queen of the Senior Ball, Shellemer, on November 29, 1952 « 76  imior Prom Let ' s Pretend , the Junior Prom, featured a fairyland atmosphere car- ried out in red and white. Charlie Rodgers and his orchestra provided the music for dancing. Prom Princess, Margaret Cook, and her court entered through a sparkling blue curtain between two white pillars, representing the gates of heaven, and progressed down an aisle lined by thirty freshmen girls composing the honor line. The members of the court were Miss Joan Drew, lower left, and Miss June Dunseth, upper left, attend- ants; Miss Barbara Hanks, prom chair- man; and Miss Lee Berkenkamp, class president. Princess Margaret ' s throne represented a cloud backed by a huge silver moon surrounded by blue angel hair. Some of the decorations giving McClelland Hall its make-believe atmosphere were white candy trees, a gingerbread house, candy - striped street lamps and a silver castle on a pink cloud.

At the first meeting, the girls learned the purpose of the society and some of the things to look forward to during the year. Society pins were ordered and the girls decided upon a skit, A Train Ride from Anywhere, U.S.A. to Any- where, U.S.A. , which they presented on initiation day. Alpha Kappa Sigma entered Fingerbowls for Araminta , directed by Mary Broadhurst, in the freshmen one-act play contest. A faculty coffee was given by the society on March 6, under the direction of Jean Teske, chairman. Other activities which the girls thoroughly enjoyed were a Christmas party and an overnight at the P.E. cabin. Monthly table parties in the dining hall were another item of fun on the eventful calendar of Alpha Kappa Sigma. The society was sponsored by Nancy Brown, and the staff of officers consisted of Susan Nelson, president; Gay Bonham, vice-president; Bernadine Bertsche, secretary; Jean Teske, treasurer; and Shirley Schmidtberger, recorder.

Students Mssociation Anne Noonan, President ••♦• w The Students Association or S.A., as it is called by all the students who automatically become members when they are enrolled, is one of the most vital forces on the campus. The purpose of S.A. is to be a means of govern- ment of, and service to, every student. It can only function through the participation and cooperation of every student. The S.A. is composed of three representative organizations. The Legisla- tive Board is the law-making branch of S.A., the Honor Council deals with academic infringement of rules, and the Judicial Board is concerned with social infringement of rules. In addition to the above mentioned activities, the S.A. sponsors the S.O.S., or Student Orientation Service, which tries to make every new student feel at home and helps her become acguainted with the Mac family and its way of life. The S.A. also sponsors the Student Aid Fund, which gives necessary financial aid to foreign students. At Christmas time the S.A. adds to the spirit of the season by donating Christmas trees for the lounges of all the dormitories. The S.A. also represents the student body by sending birthday greetings to members of the administration. The Students Association embodies a way of life on a college campus. It exemplifies an organized society of students. « 94  To start the year off right, the YW sponsored an all-school party known as the Sock Hop with cards, square dancing, refreshments, and prizes for the most unusual socks, fust before Halloween, the freshmen transformed ordinary pumpkins into lively fack-o ' -Lanterns at a pumpkin-carving party. These were delivered to the children at the School for the Deaf. Late in Novem- ber Thanksgiving baskets were prepared for the needy families of Jacksonville. The YW Thanksgiving Tea Dance was a traditional part of Thanksgiving Day. Christmas festivities began with caroling, followed by refreshments and a pro- gram in Main Social Room. February brought with it Heart Sister Week. The months of April and May found the YW sponsoring a party for the children of the School for the Deaf, and an old clothes drive to collect clothes for the underprivileged children oi Jacksonville. The final event— the YW breakfast at the Dunlap Hotel for the present cabinet and the incoming cabinet members — brought to a close another successful year for Mac ' s YW. Each student on the MacMurray campus is automatically a member of this nationwide organization, the Young Women ' s Christian Association. The twelve-member cabinet had a new duty included in its activities this year. The campus community chest chairman became a part of the YW.  95 The Recreation Association Board planned all of the sports programs and much of the leisure time activities of the college. The program is varied to meet the needs of each student. Dr. Elizabeth Rearick, the R.A. sponsor, was a very active member on the Board, along with the R.A. officers who were elected by the student body, the class representatives, and the publicity manager. Heading the Board was Pat Holle, president. Each girl in MacMurray is a member of the R.A. and is given points toward various awards for participation in its activities. The awards were given to the students at R.A. chapel held in May, at which time the Elizabeth Rearick Sportsmanship Trophy was also announced. The R.A. Board helped m the selection of the student to whom this trophy would be awarded. It was the duty of the R.A. Board to plan sportsdays with other colleges besides taking part in the activities of the Athletic Federation of College Women a national organization for the promotion of athletics, the K.A. Board sold jackets and shirts with the college emblem on them, as a sf rvice to Its members and as a money-making project. A banguet was held m the spring for the purpose of presenting the new Board and council members to the old members. 96 First row: Carolyn Tucker, Ann Sherman, Betty )o Wimer, Dr. Rearick, Betty Bishop, Melissa Cordera, Joyce Melster, Janet Copsel.

Go Dial Betty Bishop, Chairman The Recreation Board is the law-making and the executive part of the Recreation Association, while the Council is administrative. It is composed of the various sports managers and the class representatives. Betty Bishop, vice-president of the R.A., acted as chairman of the Council. The sports managers were chosen by the Board, who selected them from the nominations submitted by the students. Ability and interest are the qualities needed of good sports managers. The Council is important because it has to carry out the activities of R.A. Plans of R.A. are relayed back to the classes by members of the Council, who try to keep up interest in the recre- ations program as set up by the R.A. Board. The Council members also help to organize this program. The fall season opened with active participation in tennis, swimming, archery, bowling, hockey, and volleyball. Tournaments were held for bowling, hockey, and volleyball. In the winter months, basketball, square dancing, badminton, and photography were enjoyed by MacMurray girls. There were team tournaments in basketball, and later on an Army-Navy game was played. The spring brought out interested students for softball, tennis, and archery. Last fall MacMurray attended sportsdays at the University of Illinois, Principia College, and State Normal University. Several other sportsdays in basketball, tennis, and softball were held at MacMurray during the year or attended at nearby colleges and universities. 97 Nancy Horn, Chairman Qampus Gknstian Gouncil To further the religious life of the campus is the purpose of the Campus Christian Council. The two activities of the Council calling forth the widest participation are the Monday and Wednesday eve- ning vesper services and Religious Emphasis Week, held this year from February 8-11. Wilma Tiller was chairman of the vesper services which were held after closing hours in each dormi- tory. Religious Emphasis Week opened with com- munion service. The main speaker was Dr. Henry Hitt Crane of the Central Methodist Church of De- troit. The theme was lOY — Jesus first; Others second; Yourself last. A less widely known activity of the Council was that of conducting the freshman stu- dents to the churches of their choice on the first Sun- day of the academic year. At the suggestion of the Council the Meditation Chapel now remains open during the evening for the personal use of the stu- dents. Spring found the local ministers being enter- tained at a tea sponsored by the CCC in order to further understanding and co-operation between stu- dents and their churches in Jacksonville. Nancy Horn served as President of this year ' s Council with Margaret Morrison as secretary the first semester, Lois Barton second semester. Dr. McKendree Blair and Mrs. Hawkins contributed wise and helpful guidance as sponsors of the Council.

With the help of Dean Baird, then Deem of Fresh- men, S.O.S. — Student Orientation Service — was organized in 1938 by the Students Association. The service was begun with the twofold purpose of giv- ing upperclassmen experience in the technique of group guidance and also the opportunity to cooper- ate with the deans and faculty in assisting new students. Through the years, this organization has proved of invaluable benefit in the life of the campus. Each year a number of girls are selected by the Dean of Women and the S.O.S. Chairman to act as counselors for the incoming group of freshmen. These girls attend meetings in the spring to review past programs and to try to improve upon them. In previous years counselors were chosen only from the sophomore class, but recently juniors and seniors have been included. All through the summer, these upperclass girls correspond with freshmen who have been assigned to them, in order to clear up the Iraditional freshman fog . During the first week of school, counselors meet with their groups of coun- .•setees to familiarize them with the Brown Book, to explain campus rules, to tell them about campus activities, and to answer any questions. Throughout the year, the counselors keep in close touch with their counselees, lending a helping hand. ■G. R. Halliburton was the S.O.S. Chairman for Ihe year 1952-53. G. R.

Wlacfflurraif Qollege greetings The MacMurro y College Greetings appears in each student ' s mailbox every Saturday night. Few of the girls that casually extract the paper from their boxes may actually realize the amount of work required to get the Greetings there. Assignments are made, reporters must gather information and write their assignments. This is but one port of the activities involved in publishing the Greetings. Staff meetings are held at 4 p. m. each Monday in the Greetings office in Kathryn. Many times Mary, Joella, and Cheryl could be seen in The Hub with their heads close together as they hashed over ideas for editorials for the next issue of the paper. Several members of the staff worked at the Journal Courier on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday nights, and all day Saturday. It was there that the dummy was planned, articles were squeezed or stretched into their proper places, and the girls slaved over heads . This year Mary Korsmeyer was editor-in-chief. Barbara Abbott as copy editor and was assisted by Carolyn Clawson, Joella Decell, and Cheryl Kupper. Marilyn Goldring was feature editor. The staff was very competently guided in their work by Mr. How- ard C. Hanson, faculty adviser.

IBusiness Staff The business staff of the Greetings is responsible for the financing and circulation of the College Greetings. This staff does most of its work behind the scenes, but without it the paper would not exist. It is the duty of the circulation staff, headed by Darlene Olson, to see that a copy of the paper reaches every student ' s mailbox each Saturday night. Nancy Parker, exchange editor, sent out ex- changes and subscriptions, and in return received newspapers from colleges and universities all over the country. These were placed on the rack in the Greetings office for all to read. Members of the advertising staff, under the direc- tion of Mary Broadhurst, made weekly trips down- town to pick up the ads for the next issue of the paper. As business manager, Loretta Eckholm took care of the finances and the business staff as a whole, making sure that everything ran smoothly. She was responsible for making up the dummy each Wednesday, keeping the books balanced, signing contracts, and checking the amount of advertising desired by each advertiser. The business staff of the Greetings was not ex- empt from the tribulations that usually besiege any business staff. However, they can be proud of the fine job they did.

The Illiwoco of 1953, from the front cover to the advertising index is the result of the work of this portion of the staff. Jo Decell, the editor, and Lee Berkenkamp, assistant editor, laid the plans early in the Spring of ' 52. By late summer the dummy had arrived from our friend the engraver, Mr. Fi zer, and the real v ork began. loyce Melster and her staff wrote and typd the copy Nan Brown and Mary Culver took pictures and spent hours m the dark room ' printing them, and Peg Cook summed it all up in the index. Mr. Rowland and Mrs. Hawkins advised the staff and checked the copy, and on March 4 the dummy was taken to the printer. At long last the books returned to be distributed, and the siaff at last saw the fruit of their labors. « 102 ■ Get pictures was the campaign theme of Lois Barton, this year ' s business manager of the Illiwoco and Jo Winstead, her assistant. Lois did such a good job of arousing enthusiasm among her staff members that when they went out to solicit ads, they actually did get orders for pictures. In November the picture-taking began. The entire junior class co-operated in posing for the photos of Mac girls in various shops, restaurants, and tourist courts in town. Saturday mornings were busy times as the patient photog- rapher sat in readiness with his flashbulbs, while Lois and Jo arranged the girls. The tedious and difficult task of balancing the budget also fell to Lois and Jo. The girls who worked on the business staff this year were Mary Broad- hurst, Priscilla Kishel, Joyce Melster, Nancy Sheets, Bonnie Stone, Mary Rose Hudson, Margaret Morrison, Joan Drew, Beverly Carr, and Elynor McFadden. « IOC  I row: Lois Hoefer, Ann Noonan, Dorothy Anderson, Miss Govas, Betty Jo Wimer, Joan Margrey. nd row: Jane Brown, Betty Bishop, Mary Culver, Signe Ann Wood, Valice Schnarr, EUzabeth Helms Mary Lou Thielking, Diane AUspach, Sheryl Stephen, Nancy Brown, Beth Beyers. ac nloiinties Dorothy Anderson, President MacMounties is the riding club on the Mac campus. Its members include students who are among the more skilled riders, plus President Norris, who is an honorary member. New members are chosen by the adviser and certain of the girls in the club on the basis of horsemanship. The executive members include Miss Dorothy Govas, adviser; Dorothy Anderson, presi- dent; Lois Hoefer, vice-president; Mary Lou Thielking, secretary; Mary Culver, treasurer; Signe Ann Wood, R.A. representative; and Nancy Brown, team chairman. The MacMounties are kept busy throughout the year by such activities as regular meetings, special riding practices, and even sleigh-riding and skijoring in the winter months. (Those readers who have not been introduced to skijoring might like to know that it simply means skiiing while being towed behind a horse.) The two main projects of the year are the Gymkana in the fall and the May Day Horse Show at Commencement time. The Gymkana is actually a gym class where all sorts of team games are played on horseback. This year the losing team gave a party for the winners at the P.E. Cabin shortly after Christmas. The May Day Horse Show is the formal affair of the year. The girls display their all-round skill and horsemanship here, first place ribbons, as well as other honors, being the goal. This is the time when the parents really see what their daughters can do on horseback! « 104  First row: Marcia Mulholland, Shirley Goebel, Dorothy Ander- son, Joan Margrey, Sue Youngberg, Sue Schulze.

They swim hard and don ' t mind it. All day long. The words of this poem express the spirit of the Macquatic Club members. Amidst a flurry of black suits, records, white caps, and decorations, girls pitched in domg their bit to help make the year a success. First semester tryouts were in October and the girls began improving their strokes, dives, and ballet stunts almost immedi- ately. A great deal of enthusiasm was shown as preliminary plans were made for the annual watershow. November found six of the club members venturing to Washington University in St. Louis to participate in a synchronized swimming clinic. It was a memorable experience for the bus load of girls who went. Second tryouts came just before Christmas vacation and five new Guppies were seen on campus wearing their little fish. The annual Dad ' s Day Water Show carried out the theme of a newspaper, with each number representing a different section. There were additio nal performances given for the college students and faculty. Co-chairman of the 1953 show were Barb DeWitt and Dian Haskell. The officers of the club that is this year celebratina its 10th anniversary were Jane Brown, president; Ann Petitclair, vice- president; Rae Carlson, secretary; Isabel Poor, treasurer; and Nancy Brown, R.A. representative; who all worked under the guidance of the club sponsor, Miss Carrie E.

Vliijsiccil Cdiicatmi Gliih The Physical Education Club ' s major activity of the year was sponsoring Club 13 . This is an all-school party that was originated during the war years when men were scarce on all campuses. It was meant to be a get- together where the girls could dance, play cards, and just enjoy themselves. It became an annual affair and now is one of the main social occasions on campus The party is always built around a night club theme. There are floor shows, composed of the best talent in the school, dance contests, and refreshments served by the freshmen physical education majors. For those v ho desire to play cards there are adequate facilities. This year ' s chairman of Club 13 was Betty Bishop. Her assistant was luanita Lorance. The profits from Club 13 are used to improve the P.E. Cabin, which is available for use by any group of Mac students. During the summer, lost year ' s plans to have a new floor laid in the bunk room were accomplished. Additional improvements made this year include the purchase and installation of an electric stove and a sink for the kitchen, gravel for the driveway and redecorating of the interior of the cabin. The members of the club did the painting themselves on weekends and m whatever other spare time they had. The color scheme they chose was shades of brown. One of the most entertaining occasions on the club ' s calendar of events was the Christmas party given by the faculty members of the physical education department. The officers elected to head the club ' s activities for this year were Melissa Cordera, president; Barbara Dewitt, vice-president; Alice Carol Cox, secretary-treasurer; and Janet Cox, cabin chairman. The group was sponsored by Miss Dorothy Govas. « 106  International Kelations Blnh The aim of the International Relations Club is to develop international understanding through deeper and broader knowledge of world affairs and the people behind them. The monthly meetings during the year included a talk by Mr. William O. Anderson, of the Department of State; a discussion of the Korean situation, which was led by Valerie Lavery and Virginia Zimmer; a talk about life in France by Liliane Douillet, a MacMurray College special student from Grenoble, France; a talk by George Cosbar, an Illinois College student from Cairo, Egypt; and a discussion on Germany. Activities of the organization also included the sponsoring of a United Nations chapel service, a United Nations program presented at the Jackson- ville High School, a Christmas party, and a United Nations dinner. The members elected the following officers to direct the activities of the International Relations Club; Suzanne Fiolek, president; Margaret Cook, vice- president; Annette Grogan, secretary-treasurer; Valerie Lavery, program chairman, and Virginia Zimmer, publicity chairman.

A.C.E., a branch of the National Association of Childhood Education, has as its mam purpose the promotion of adequate educational facilities and opportunities for young children. Membership of the club is composed of students majoring in kindergarten-primary school education. Meetings were held at regular intervals during the year under the leader- ship of President Mary Jean Jackson. Activities for the first semester began with a welcome for prospective members in September, followed by the initi- ation of new members in October. The November meeting afforded the girls a chance to hear Mr. Busche, of the music faculty, lecture on Children ' s Rhythms , describing rhythm bands. Christmas found the A.C.E. members giving a party for the children of the Deaf School. This party is an annual affair, held in alternating years for the blind children and the deaf children. A demonstration was given by the children from the Deaf School in January. Also in January occurred the Chili Supper, which kept the members busy waiting on overflowing tables. Raggedy Ann and Andy became tangible figures to A.C.E. in March, when the Kindergarten Operetta was given. Betty Jo Cunningham was the able chairman of this operetta, one of the highlights of the year. In April Mr. J. A. Mann, the superintendent of schools, gave the A.C.E. members some much appreciated pointers on how to apply for a job. Assisting President Mary Jean Jackson for the year were Vice-President Wilma Tiller, Secretary Maravene Ryan and Treasurer Mary Jo Haberkamp. Miss Ellen Nudd guided the girls ' activities during the year as a helpful adviser. 108  Home economics Blub The Home Economics Club is one of many student college and university clubs affiliated with both the State and the American Home Economics Associations. Through varied programs durmg the year, the members study the work of the A.H.E.A. and learn of the many occupations open to women who have training in home economics. This year a club project was carried out in which a small booklet containing information about those opportunities was mimeographed and distributed to field workers in the admis sions depart- ment and to a number of high school students interested in MacMurray and in home economics. Phyllis Gruner, president, represented the club at an A.H.E.A meetina m Atlantic City last June. Marilyn Satorius, A. J. McCutchan, and Joari Spodnyak attended a workshop m Chicago. Several girls also attended the State Home Economics meeting in Springfield. Several meetings are held each year to aid the girls in getting acquainted with one another and with the home economics faculty. The freshmen were invited to a club party at Kathryn Smoker m October, at which the club officers outlined the year ' s program and extended an invitation to the new girls. Activities for the year included a Christmas party, the annual Baked Bean Supper followed by a demonstration on flower arrangement, a bake sale, and a cabin party. The main project for the year was planning for the F.H.A. rally in Illinois, for which MacMurray home economics girls acted as hostesses. The club ' s advisers are Miss Mate Giddmgs and Miss Mabel Owsley The officers were Phyllis Gruner, president; Marilyn Satorius, vice-president; Willa Bockstahler, secretary; and Marjorie Wiese, treasurer.

With this purpose in mind, the officers of the A.S.L., consisting of Ann Poulos, president; Beth Buckborough, vice-president; and Gloria Brown, secretary; set up a working plan which included workshops, exhibits, lectures, trips to galleries, discussions, and projects. The League started the year off at a modern pace by bringing to the campus a collection of modern British contemporary lithographs, which was exhibited in Pfe iffer Library m October. In November the A.S.L. brought an interesting exhibit of modern contemporary architecture, including work by such well known moderns as Frank Lloyd Wright. In December, as is customary, the group formed their celebrated orchestra, which serenaded friends and faculty members. Before Christmas vacation, the A.S.L. astounded the students with an outstanding assortment of original hand-painted Christmas cards. The campus was again shocked in February by the brilliance and uniqueness of a collection of sculpture exhibiting the work of A.S.L. members. The League ' s outside excursion took the members to Chicago where they attended exhibits and lectures. Through all of these activities, the art students at MacMurray are striving for better understanding of the art of our changing American culture.

The station has a schedule that is of interest to both the listener and the participant. Whether your musical interest runs to the classical or to the popular type, WMMC has a disc-jockey show to satisfy your desire. These shows are combined with a variety of other special programs, such as the discussion, Let ' s Talk it Over ; the radio drama workshop program, Studio A ; the woman ' s program, College Shop ; the weekly give-away show, Musical Surprise ; and the story-telling program, Something from the Bookshelf . In the field of news, WMMC has started using a taped recording called UN Review . World news is presented twice each evening, and the campus news is broadcast every night. WMMC brought many of the football games of the University of Illinois and Illinois College to the campus during the season. WMMC operates at maximum efficiency. The station is on the air from 7:00 to 10:15 p. m. Monday through Friday. Saturday ' s schedule runs from 1:00 to 5:00 p. m. and includes disc-jockey shows, a give-away program, and a freshman reguest show, with which the station closes for the week. Your campus station keeps you up with current events. Through the year, WMMC brought to the campus the Army-Navy hockey game, the inauguration of President Norris, interviews with all of the celebrities of the concert- lecture series, the dedication concert for the new organ, the campus balls, proms, and dances, and many other special events, besides the regularly scheduled programs. « 112  n e P and aamirray ers Two dramatic groups on the campus are MacMurray Players for beginners in theatre and N.C.P. for the few- experienced ones. Activities for MacMurray Players opened with a reception in the Little Theatre in October. The freshmen especially were invited to become better acguainted with the theatre and its activities. All those attending were urged to sign up for theatre activities in which they had an interest. Throughout the year MacMurray Play- ers sponsored various programs both on and off campus, such as the Barter House Theatre production of The Merchant of Venice , which the Players sponsored in conjunction with Hilltop Players from Illinois College; and the annual freshman one acts. Members helped each freshman society put on a one-act play by directing or working behind the scenes. Throughout the whole year, members are either on stage or working backstage for the three major productions and the children ' s show. Membership in Players is based upon the amount and quality of work done for the theatre and its productions — acting, working backstage on costuming, lighting, proper - ties, makeup, and other theatre activities. Edie Roeder acted as president of the Players, with Mary Haager assisting as vice-president, and Natalie Wigger as secretary. Dr. Holcombe sponsored the group. N. C. P. was established as the 37th chapter of the National Collegiate Players, a group of drama students from colleges and universities in all parts of the United States. A uniform point system is used as the basis for membership in N.C.P. Emma Jo Rodgers and Jo Hoover are members of N.C.P.

This group, more commonly known as the town girls , had supper meetings twice a month and carried on projects and parties throughout the year. November found the town girls initiating new members. Carrying out the theme of school days , the initiates carried miniature school houses in which were candy for the old members. Initiation was climaxed by a wiener roast at the P.E. cabin. During Thanksgiving weekend a successful bake sale was held in Town House, second home to the town girls . Second semester began with another successfu l bake sale. The main project of the semester was in February, when the girls played hostess to the high school seniors from Jacksonville for a day. MacMurray girls showed their guests around the campus, took them to various classes, and helped them to become acquainted with the MacMurray campus. It was felt that the day was favorably received by guests, faculty, and college students alike. The year closed with the spring banquet at which time the new officers were initiated. ■ . ■- ' vf i Officers of the Jacksonville Club for the year 1952-53 were Elynor McFad- den, president; Jane Wilson, vice-president; Marilyn Lacy, secretary; Pat Kennedy, treasurer; Margaret Norvell, publicity; and Roberta Middendorf, keeper of archives and R.A. representaive.

The 1952-1953 Madrigal had approximately fifty girls who took part in the activities of the club. The Madrigal members took on a new duty last fall. About every fifth week the members relieved the Choir of its duties in the chapel service. Shortly before Christmas vacation, the Madrigal joined several other musical organizations to present Christmas Vespers. Just before spring vacation, the Madrigal joined the Choir to present Beethoven ' s Hallelujah Chorus for Easter Vespers. The Madrigal ' s appearances were not limited to the MacMurray Campus. They presented programs at the State Hospital and at the Congregational Church in Jacksonville. In February, they recorded Lacrymosa by Mozart to be broadcast over WMMC as a part of one of the Sunday afternoon concerts. The Madrigal also took part in the activities on Dad ' s Day. The main project of the year for the members of the club was the produc- tion of, and participation, in the opera, The Marriage of Figaro. The girls formed the costume, ticket, publicity, and property committees. The chorus for the opera was entirely composed of Madrigal members. The following girls were officers of the club: Marilyn Lee, president; Margaret Timmel, vice-president; Jean Boardman, secretary; Clarissa Webber, treasurer; and Jayne Casey and Nancy Griswold, librarians.

Tryouts were held at the beginning of each semester for those girls interested in belonging to this group. The Choir sings regularly for Chapel and special events on campus, as well as making public appearances off campus on its annual tour during the second semester. Preparation for Founder ' s Day, the Inauguration of President Norris, Chapel services each Tuesday, Christmas Vespers, Club 13 , and appear- ances before various organizations in the city of Jacksonville took up most of the Choir ' s time during the first semester. The second semester presented a much heavier schedule. The first out-of-town tour took the Choir to Grace Methodist Church, St. Louis, Missouri for two Sunday morning services on April 26. That after- noon the girls sang at an Alumnae Informal Concert in St. Louis. The second tour took the Choir first to Havana Community High School, Havana, Illinois, to Woodruff High School, Peoria, and to the Streator Methodist Church, Streator Next the Choir appeared at Ottawa Township High School, Ottawa, Illinois, and Plainfield High School, Plainfield. The Choir made a tape recording for a later broadcast over WMAQ. The Choir sang at two services in the Park Ridge Methodist Church, Chicago, and at an afternoon service in the Rogers Park Presbyterian Church, The last appearance was in Orchestra Hall, where a formal concert was given for the Chicago Sunday Evening Club. The MacMurray College Choir is directed by Mr. Henry E. Busche.

Wlacfilurray Gollege IBand This was the first year in which the MacMurray College Band was officially combined with the band from Illinois College. The organization undertook a heavy assignment for a group of its size. At its first appearance, on October 25, the unit formed an integral part of the Illinois College Home- coming parade. The Band was headed by its capable drum majorette, Barbara Schroder, assisted by four expert baton twirlers. These girls also performed during the half-time of the Homecoming game. During the basketball season, a Pep Band, led by Constance Brand, took over the responsibility of furnishing music for four of the Illinois College games, including one for the March of Dimes Benefit Fund. The formal concert, presented March 8 in the Music Hall, was the highlight performance of the year and featured two solo numbers as part of an interest- ing and varied program. The soloists included Priscilla Kishel at the piano and a woodwind trio — both with band accompaniment. In addition, the Band filled its annual request engagments at the State Hospital, during Dad ' s Day activities, as well as the lawn concert in May. Although their schedules were filled with rehearsals and concerts, the band members did not neglect their social life, including informal gatherings at Mr. Busche ' s home after Wednesday evening rehearsals and a party in April. Officers of the Band this year were Marilyn Menchhoff, president; Patricia Kennedy and Patricia Johnson, librarians; Sue Nelson and Larry Renetzsky. set-up chairmen, and Gerald Brown, Illinois College representative. The Band is directed by Mr. Henry E. Busche. « 117  TRecreation ftssociation HERE ' S A TOAST TO OUR DEAR COLLEGE, You ole lazy g lod-for-nothingl They always pick on me ....
