For more than one hun- dred and sixteen years McKendree has stood for the highest and best in education and char- acter building, and, struggling as she is in this third year of the U. S. ' s participation in World War I I to keep on the move, her stately old buildings remind us that McKendree is strong and durable — well able to stand even in the face of almost unbearable hardships. Her almost-a-century-old Chapel building, whose spire majestically rises from among the branches of age-old trees to find its apex towering above even the greatest of God ' s own handiwork, symbolizes McKendree ' s noble and lofty ideals. McKendree is proud to be a child of the great Methodist Church, which this year, through the leadership of its episcopal officers, is crusading for a just and lasting peace. It is our hope that everything about McKendree may fall in line with the ideals and teachings of The Prince of Peace . McKendree, in her own humble way, is anxious to do her part to support the church in its endeavors to carry out a program which will help lead our country into lasting Christian fellowship with all peoples.

(Photo by Behyn . . .we dedicate the 1944 McKENDREAN. During his eight years as president of McKendree College, Dr. Clark R. Yost has given his all in the interest of the school. Especially since Pearl Harbor our president has literally poured out his spiritual, mental, and physical energies in steady streams so that the program at McKendree might continue to be the best to be found among schools of its standing. His contribution to McKendree cannot be expressed in words. Theodore Roosevelt gave McKendree the title, The best in the Middle West. We who have known Dr. Yost during the last few years, as he has led McKendree and as he has constantly championed the cause of Christian education, are ready to give him the title, The best leader of ' The best in the Middle West ' .

One of these, Hal Nothdurft, was soon taken. We did not deem it advisable to meet during the first semester, although we did elect officers. However, we did not cease to function as an organization. At the beginning of the second semester things began looking up. We pledged eight new members, several of whom made their marks in basketball. I hough Phi lo members are busy with many other activi- ties, we find time to meet every Monday at 12:30 p.m. The Philo spirit moves on, even in wartime. Philo influence will continue to be felt on McKendree Campus. PLATO Plato began the year, its 95th, with only one mem- ber left from the group of 1942-43. For a time it looked as if the society had lost its place on the Campus when twelve of its fourteen members were graduated or entered the armed services, but last fall nine pledges came into Plato, and the organiza- tion carried on in its usual energetic way This year Plato kept its reputation for athletics by having four members on the basketball squad. The manager of the team was also a Platonian. Most of the society ' s members have one or two years more of college to complete. For this reason we feel sure that although the membership may be small, Plato will keep on boosting McKendree. PLATONIAN LITERARY SOCIETY (Presidents: Harmon. Searles.

Luma ' CLIO The only girls ' literary society on this campus is Clio, which helps the girls develop a well-balanced personality and gives them experience in speaking before others. Literary programs which are chosen by the critics are given each Monday night. They consist of declamations, impromptus, essays, assigned ad- dresses, current events, parliamentary drill, and music. These programs are varied and interesting and are formed around a central theme. Eleven new members were pledged into the society this year. Four open sessions were given during the year and the prominent social event of Sadie Hawkins Day was sponsored by the girls of Clio. This organization receives the support and coopera- tion of all Clionians. They enjoy the meetings very much. . Kampmeyer, M. Harshbarge Kean, V. Phillips, R. Giles. MIDDLE ROW: M. Ball, F. Hortin, SIGMA BETA RHO With the growing complexity of life for the indi- vidual under present world wide conditions, there is a profound need for a balanced life. Sigma Beta Rho was instituted for this very purpose. Slowly but surely we are realizing that the Mastei ' s practice of quietly slipping aside for a worship period with the Father gives us poise with a deeper under- standing and a broader view of life ' s tasks. Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a work- man that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. — II Timothy: 2:15. Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ. — II Timothy: 2:3. SIGMA BETA RHO (Left to Jackson, Stallings, ight): V. Jackson, R. McGrath, Dr vV. Searles, H. Martin, G.

This organization is a national honorary English fraternity for the pur- pose of learning to appreciate literature and of creat- ing the desire to write. The meetings are held at the home of Dr. West and consist of creative writing and reviews on current books of popular interest. Three new members were received into the society this year. SIGMA ZETA The Sigma Zeta honorary society is a national or- ganization whose purpose is to encourage scientific study and to recognize students of high scholarship in natural sciences and mathematics. The Beta Chapter at McKendree College was organized in 1926. During this school year Prof. H. C. Gutekunst, head of the department of chemistry, and Mr. Thomas T. Gordon, a senior majoring in Mathematics, have been initiated. These, with Dean Stowell, have constituted the active chapter this year. Although with depleted ranks, the society plans to carry on and to be prepared for useful work both now and when the peace comes. SIGMA ZETA (Left to right): Prof. H. C. Guntekunst, president; Dean C. J. Stowell, recorder-treasurer; Thomas T. Gordon. YMCA CABINET YMCA The YMCA, in spite of having a limited member- ship, -functioned as usual this year. Four delegates were sent to the YM-YWCA Conference held at Shurtleff College in November. During the year, the YMCA met on Wednesday evenings. Many of the programs consisted of com- bined sessions with the YWCA. Student ministers were the speakers at most of the joint meetings. Harold Kuebler, assistant regional secretary of the YMCA, spoke at one of the combined sessions in February. The Y ' s officers for the year: president, Don Har- mon (I), Gehl Devore (2); vice-president, Gehl De- vore (I), William Stallings (2); program chairman, Larry Jones; social chairman, William Searles; chap- lain, Mode Powell; secretary-treasurer, Peter Notaras; pianist, Robert Stadge. YWCA This year the association continued to fulfill its re- quirements to become a participating Y in the national organization. Several of the officers attended a conference in November at Shurtleff College, Alton. They sent a representative to the Lake Geneva Con- ference in June. The Y.W. held some of its weekly meetings with the Y.M. in Clio Hall, with the student ministers pro- viding the programs. The Y.W. also cooperated with the Y.M. in planning social activities for the campus. The officers for the year: president, Joyce Ann Kean; vice-president, Maxine Ball; program chairman, Mar- garet Harshbarger; secretary-treasurer, Gloria Steph- ens; social chairman, Ruth Koerber; pianist, Vergene Jones; sponsor, Mrs. C.

It gives experience in group singing and stimulates interest in music. This year our group of singing voices filled its usual appointments at churches and provided special music for many of our chapel services. Besi des the formal functions of the- chorus one of the outstanding events in this year was the Hallowe ' en Party sponsored by the chorus. The chorus, under the direction of Miss Eula R. Smith, elected Vergene Jones, president; Shirley Berg- man, vice-president; Edna Kampmeyer, secretary; Larry Jones, treasurer; Flonda Jones, social chairman, and Wyvona Luman, pianist. TRIO The women ' s trio is chosen from members of the chorus. The trio sang at Salem, O ' Fallon and in our local Methodist Church. They also furnished special music at the college on various occasions. The mem- bers are Vergene Jones, first soprano; Shirley Bergman, second soprano; and Virginia Phillips, alto. The members of the trio are also soloists, and all have made several public appearances this year. As we think of their singing we are reminded of the words of Ben Johnson: The voice so sweet, the words so fair, As some soft chime had stroked the air; And though the sound were parted thence, Still left an echo in the sense.

Representatives -from the faculty, the two dormitories, student body, the commuters, and the Lebanonites meet once a month to discuss and solve problems to further Christian democracy upon our campus. This year the council decided that a Homecoming would be unpatriotic because of the war emergency program. However, a day was set aside on which a committee meeting was called and a basketball game and a play were the afternoon and night features. The council approved of the change in the Christmas vacation and an extra day was added. By promoting democracy upon our campus we hope to instill it permanently into the minds of the stu- dents, our future Americans. Chairman: Dr. C. R. Yost.

Harsh- INTERNATIONAL STUDENT SOCIETY The purpose of this new organization is to promote an international understanding and good will among the- students of many allied countries. Progress is very promising. The membership is large, considering the number of foreign language students and the new organization. During our meetings we have helped beginning language students to write letters in Spanish or French. The names of the interesting pen-pals were sent on request. It is exciting to read of the lives of young people in allied countries. The development of the interest of our allies toward us is gratifying.

The Review is published every two weeks of the school year except during vacations. This year the Review is being sent to all former McKendreans who are now in the armed services. The staff is composed of the members of the jour- nalism classes. The editorial positions are held by those who have completed the elementary journalism courses. Any who are interested in journalism may serve as reporters. The same staff published The McKendrean. Addi- tional activities during the year included: two fall leaf rakings and High School Day. Gehl Devore, editor of THE McKENDREAN, was not a member of THE REVIEW staff.

Who ' s Who Among Students in American Universities and Colleges is a stan- dard directory and index of information containing biographies of distinguished students throughout America. Selection of students to be recognized in Who ' s Who is made devoid of politics, initiation fees, and dues. On this page are listed the McKendreans, four seniors and two juniors, who will be listed in the 1943-44 edition of Who ' s Who. DONALD HARMON (Senior) Don ' s leadership and cheerful smile helped to win many friends. His sportsmanship was shown in the basketball games in which he participated. He has a bubbling sense of humor and we shall always remem- ber his Iteen wit. THOMAS GORDON (Junior) His quiet personality and ever-ready smile pro- claimed him the honor of leadership in his classes. His amazing ability in chemistry and mathematics has proved that he is a true student. MARGARET HARSHBARGER (Senior) Harshie has a keen sense of humor, which every- one admires. Her leadership and persistence were shown through her successful participation of church organizations and campus activities. Her laughter has resounded over the Old Hill for four happy years. JOYCE ANN KEAN (Junior) Jake has a pleasant voice and lovely manners. Her high scholastic standing has proved that she is a competent leader in the many offices she has filled. GEHL DEVORE (Senior) Gehl ' s scholastic ability stands out on the Old Hill. He was always willing to lend a helping hand when it was needed. VERGENE JENKINS JONES (Senior) Vergene ' s musical talents have been appreciated by McKendree students and outsiders. From a Voice of Experience , she can relate interesting facts concern- ing the life of an army wife. We respect her for coming back to school to graduate.

BACK ROW: Notaras (Mgr.), J. With the war taking most of the men away from the campus this year, McKendree was fortunate enough to have a basketball squad. All of the players were new on the team; nevertheless a good fighting spirit was prevalent throughout the season. The squad was handicapped by most of the team living off the cam- pus. At the end of the first semester McK lost their captain, Don Harmon, and another important player, John McKnelly. Edward Wright came the second semester and played some good ball as forward and guard. The team won four out of seven games which is very good considering the inexperience and the diffi- culty in training. Most of the players will be back on the campus again next year and the Purple and Whites should once again see a good season.

(Left to right): G. Winterrowd, W. Stalling , R. Koerbe BASKETBALL LETTERMEN Viehe Jackson, Freshman Nashville — Guard As a first letter man Jackson played good offensive ball. His long shots helped the Bearcats in many a tight pinch. Jackson was always there to receive the ball and could be counted upon to bring the ball across the line. He still has three more years to prove his worth with the Bearcats. Captain Gehl Devore, Senior Altamont — Forward Starting late in the season, Gehl was able to maintain his fighting spirit and to encourage the fellows to four trium- phant games. His ability for long shots made him the leading scorer of the season. Gehl was the pushing force be- hind the whole team. Gehl ' s leadership and good sportsmanship will be remem- bered by every member of the team. Arthur Kleinschmidt, Sophomore Lebanon — Center Art ' s height, along with his ability, made him an essential part of every game. Art showed a willing and conscientious spirit at all times. He was always under the basket for the rebounds and added many points to McKendree ' s score. He should be the nucleus around which the team will be built next year. Victor Donaldson, Freshman Shobonier — Forward Vic always played a cool, steady game and made his share of points for McKendree. He did exceptionally well in the victory over Greenville. Donald- son will be an asset to the team next year. Ira Thetford, Sophomore Froeburg — Guard Tiny could always be depended upon to handle the ball well. He was even tempered and played a good, clean game. Thetford will be a great help in building a future team. No matter what the score was Thetford always kept his fighting spirit. Larry Jones, Senior Fredericktown, Mo. — Guard Larry was always alert and fighting and he played to win. He was consis- tent in his play, both on offense and defense. This is Larry ' s last basketball season and McKendree can be proud of his addition to the team. V. JACKSON KLEINSCHMIDT THETFORD (Photos by Wyatt) DEVORE DONALDSON JONES 23 WOMEN ' S P.

In the school year 1943-44 this department presented two outstanding performances. A program of December, 1943 consisted of A Model Parade , An Indian Tranquil, and a Military Flag Drill. The May Pole Revels of 1944 was under the direction of the P. E. Class. A most difficult and beautiful performance was given. Members of the class presented several ideas for the; May Pole Festivity. Class periods were composed of physical exe rcises to stimulate gracefulness; to correct posture; to develop proper walking habits, and to bring into use muscles which are often neg- lected and undeveloped. The women of the class developed creative ability by presenting suggestions and ideas pertaining to rhythmical patterns; descriptive stunting; and developed coordination in group performance.

When we graduat- ing seniors assembled to write the history of our class, we found that only two of those who will be presented with sheep-skins on graduation day were among those who matriculated at McKendree in 1940 and will finish in May. They are Margaret Harshbarger and Gehl Devore. The others graduating either started before Septem- ber, 1940 or, by attending summer school, finished their courses last September. The two who matriculated in 1940 and completed their work last fall are Beatrice Attey and Calvin Ryan. The other members of our graduating class began their college careers and finished at various times, as follows: Don Harmon and James Owens entered McKendree in 1939 and completed their work at the end of the first semester of this school year. George Kennedy came to McKendree from Millikin as a sopho- more in 1941 and graduated at the end of the 1943 term. Malcolm Myres came to McKendree from Blackburn as a junior in January 1942 and completed his work last summer. Jesse Seiber came to McKendree as a second semester freshman, transferring credits from Trinity Gospel Bible School at Evansville, Indiana, in 1941. Cyril Curtis matriculated in 1939 and finished last summer. Edna Kraemer receives her degree with this graduating class. In 1941 Maxine Ball came from Blackburn as a second semester freshman and finishes in May. Alvin Whittemore began pre-college work at McKendree in 1940 and graduates in May. Robert Herman enrolled at McKendree in 1938 and is listed among the graduating seniors. Vergene Jenkins Jones, who received the Public School Music Diploma from McKendree in 1938, returned to the campus last summer and will finish her A.B. degree with this class. Let us now reminisce. The fifty-eight freshmen of 1940, under the able leader- ship of President Boyd Tex Anderson, made history by gaining possession of the chapel bell, after enjoying an undisturbed freshman picnic. Vice-president Bob Matthews, Secretary Alberta Young, and Treasurer Bonnie Bell ably assisted Tex in the aforementioned incident and in carrying on the other activities of the class. The thirty members of the sophomore class of 1941, with the efficient leader- ship of Gehl Devore, aided by Vice-president Margaret Saxe, Secretary Bob Matthews, Treasurer Robert Dannenbrink, and Sergeant of Arms Boyd Anderson, were active in various school activities. Several members of the class took part in that famous hair cutting initiation incident, which will not soon be forgotten by the ' 41 freshmen. The fifteen juniors, with George Kennedy as President, Margaret Harshbarger, Vice-president, Maxine Ball, Secretary, Art Hinson, Treasurer, Robert Dannenbrink, Sergeant of Arms, were campus leaders and were instrumental in helping to promote extra curricular activities. The fifteen seniors, only eight of whom have been on the campus this school year, headed by Gehl Devore, with Vice-president James Owens, Secretary Vergene Jones, Treasurer Maxine Ball, Sergeant of Arms Margaret Harshbarger and Don Harmon, have made up in quality what they have lacked in quantity. Members of the class have been leaders of various organizations and groups, including the three literary societies, student body, glee club, Y ' s , dramatic societies, and athletics. The changing constituency of the class may be attributed largely to the numerous abnormalities brought about by World War II. We have not exactly set the world on fire , but many of the ambitious freshmen who came to the Old Hill in 1940 are helping to extinguish the fires of hatred and greed, which are both causes and results of war. 30 PECULIAR TRENDS THE CLASS OF ' 45 Although the class of ' 45 was greatly diminished in number from the previous year, it was not diminished in the force it had upon McKendree, both socially and academically. When we started our learning on the Old Hill there were fifty boys and girls, but soon after we arrived here the war turned us into mature ladies and gentlemen. The men began to leave one by one to enter the armed forces and the girls to become teachers and war workers. Although our freshie year was marked by green caps, a successful picnic, and a now famous bell ringing, we have remained gay, but not as lighthearted. We think of our class members from New Guinea to England, and then we turn to study our accelerated program, so we can soon work and fight to make democ- racy live. Perhaps there will be only a few of us walk the Centennial Path in caps and gowns to receive our degrees, but all of us, regardless of where we strayed by the wayside, will remember the life on the Old Hill , and know that perhaps we did something for the proud name of McKendree, which we will always revere and honor! THE CLASS OF ' 46 A year ago you saw us, thirty-six new faces in the yearbook. In the fall we came, happy and carefree, hoping to find an honored place in the ranks of loyal McKendreans. The upper classmen and friends of the college gave us the heartiest welcome ever, and soon we felt at home. It was not long until we began to understand that ours was a position to be envied. Determined to uphold our college for four busy years before becoming active alumni, we accepted the McKendree traditions as our own. We became a happy crowd and our associations here during two short years have not diminished that feeling. How well we remember those nights when, footsore and weary, our boys spent long hours on the open road with only the stars for company. The none-the-less- stronger sex of our class suffered similar humiliation when roped together and forced to wear costumes befitting a family reunion of witches, then marched about in the streets of Lebanon. According to some, Lake Beautiful is not any too suitable for a bathing place. We added all this social orientation to college life to our list of memories and pressed on toward upper class standings. This spring finds more than half of our boys supporting in another way — by supporting our nation. While we wait for the day when our pals, friends, and sweethearts will come back, we, the class of ' 46, claim a double share of that famed spirit of 76 in carrying on and in lifting our alma mater to greater fame than ever before. . . . . May we ever hold thee true and wise and right Honor purple and the white And for victory we ' ll always fight Till we win for old McK. THE CLASS OF ' 47 When we, the class of ' 47, enrolled as the freshmen of McKendree last Septem- ber, we were just as green and scared as the average college freshman. Before many days had passed, however, we had learned our way around the camous and had begun to feel a part of the college. Eager to do our part in upholding McKendree ' s traditions, we elected Mode Powell as our leader. Harold Garrett as vice-president, Dorothy Faulkner as secre- tary, and Beckie Giles as treasurer, ably assisted our president in all the undertakings. We held the annual freshman picnic and endured the moonlight hikes and. dips in Lake Beautiful that accompanied initiation week. We proved our ability and talent by giving an all-freshman program in the chapel. At the close of our first year at McKendree, we are proud to have lived that year. We have accepted as our own the high ideals and standards of the college that has been serving its country so faithfully for over one hundred years. Now we are looking forward to our next three years in the college on the Old Hill .
