Helm an Library McKendree College Lebanon, IL 62254 T H E E A —ir E i«n f2 For more than one hundred seventeen years McKendree College has stood on the Old Hill as a living symbol of Christian education, doing its utmost to train young men and women to be of greatest service to God and their fellowmen. Each spring sees another class sent forth with a liberal arts education to be of service in the field to which they are best suited. But a liberal arts education is not all work. McKendree also teaches brotherhood — not in classes, but through living together like brothers, all working together for the same cause, and each gener- ously sharing his personality with others about him. The leadership and participation in extra-curricular activities enables all young men and women to be of most service to their community, and the fam- ily atmosphere on the campus inspires them to live peacefully and happily with their families and friends as they go through life in true McKendree fashion.

They are always on hand when something needs to be done, and are always deeply interested in cooperating with the students in anything they undertake. It has been their constant supervision and cooperation that has made possible the sending of Reviews to all McKendree servicemen, both at home and abroad. Without their support there would have been no annual. It is to these two fine Christian leaders, that we dedicate our 1945 McKendrean.

SIGMA TAU DELTA In its ninth year, Sigma Tau Delta is maintaining its place on the campus as one of the leading honorary fra- ternities. Beginning the year with two members, this group added five more to its number. The monthly meetings have been used for varied pur- poses: to study classic and contemporary literature, and to give opportunity for self-expression through writing.

Plato has been through the thick and thin of things during the past year. Seemingly, all bad things turn out humorous. We won ' t forget those urchins from the girls ' dormitory who spoiled the refreshments at Plato ' s open session. Excitement and words flowed freely. The members of Plato are proud of its past, and hope- ful of its future PHILOSOPHIAN LITERARY SOCIETY PHILOSOPHIAN LITERARY SOCIETY Philo started its 107th year with four members but it had taken in five new members before Thanksgiving Philo met every Monday at 12:10 P.

Inasmuch as the membership is quite low, a greater number in the near future is expected. Although the M Club has not been too active during the past year, it sponsored, quite proudly, the election of the Home-coming Queen. The members of the M Club are proud of that or- ganization, for it represents the Spirit of Athletics on the campus Membership provides a challenge for all participants of sports as a goal worthy of attainment.

Who ' s Who Among Students in American Universities and Colleges is a publica- tion of a standard directory and index of information sponsored by six hundred colleges and universities. Its purpose is to give national recognition to students of unusual abilities. Below are listed six McKendree seniors who will appear in the 1944-45 edition. EDNA KAMPMEYER Edna possesses a rare sense of responsibility and she has made a good scholastic record at McKendree. Her cooperative and friendly spirit will be greatly missed on the Old Hill. FRANK SNYDER We admire Frank, one of our older students, for re- turning to school to graduate while holding a full-time position His ability in chemistry and mathematics i? outstanding RUTH KOERBER The quick wit and cheerful disposition of our Mc- Kendrean editor combine to make her a capable leader. She has proved herself to be a good student and depend- able office assistant. WILLIAM STALLINGS The high scholastic record and fine leadership shown by Bill during his years on the Old Hill make the rest of us proud to call him a McKendrean SHIRLEY BERGMAN Shirley ' s quick smile and pleasing personality have won many friends for her at McKendree She has been an ex- cellent student and an outstanding leader during her three years on the campus NORMAN BAKER Norman ' s cheerful smile and keen sense of humor make him a welcome addition to the McKendree family McKENDREAN-REVIEW STAFF BOTTOM ROW (left to right): W.

Not only did this staff publish the bi-weekly paper and this annual, but it spon- sored a fall leaf-raking and the high school day in the spring. Just as other groups, the staff operated under war-time difficulties. Much midnight oil was burned to complete copy for deadlines Many afternoons were used for trips to St. Louis to arrange for printing and engraving After a year of presenting the current happenings on our campus, we offer this book as the culmination of our activities. The memories embodied in these pages will long serve to remind us of the Old Hill and those with whom we worked and played in ' 44- ' 45.

BASKETBALL LETTERM EN Laurel Berger I Forward I — Berger had the best free throw average on the team Laurie was fastest on the first five, and perhaps the best all around player. He certainly snagged more than one rebound. Berger will be here next year to add his much- needed strength to the team Ira Thetford Captain (Guard) — Tiny, a two-year letterman, could always be depended up- on to handle the ball well. He was calm and cool-headed on the floor, and was always under the basket for rebounds. Gleason Lagow (Forward) — Joe, small, but mighty, proved to be one of the Bearcats ' best subs He is one of the cleverest ball handlers on the team Joe will be here next year to put the old zip on the ball. Frank Harris (Guard) — Frank did more than his share of rebounding. Many an opposing player will verify that Harris handled the ball well, and could be depended upon to bring it across the line. He should be in there fighting next year Wesley Srelzriede Wes could always be counted upon to put his best in a game He always ap- peared calm and handled the ball well He certainly snagged a great many re- bounds and more than one of his well- placed shots helped to boost the score Don Broadway (Forward) — Don was death on side shots He added many a point to the team ' s score. His ball handling was excellent, and if was not uncommon to see him break-through and loop another in for the Bearcats. Arthur Kleinschmidr (Center) — Art, a second year letterman, the tallest on the team, used his height to great advantage His rebounding ability was of great value to the team. He was one of the leading scorers, and was strictly a team man He will be the main cog in the Bearcats ' machine next year. Louis Purcell Although Purcell was a member of the Bearcats only in the early part of the season, he added many points to the score Always under the basket for re- bounds, and couid be depended upon to handle the ball well.

The plot revolves around the Burgess family the day before Christmas, preparing to spend their Christmas day without their son, Johnny, who is working in Chicago, and Grandpa, who had died the preceding summer. The typical family re- actions are found: sixteen-year-old Julie falling in love for the first time; eighteen-year-old Emily receiving a proposal, and the twelve-year- old Janet discovering the real meaning or Christmas. The climax comes with the arrival of Johnny, who has been given the day off to spend Christmas at home. The play was directed by the Reverend F. C. Stelzriede.

Along with being May Queen, she held the position of editor of the McKendrean. Curb, who is a graduate of the class of ' 45, has taken part in many of the campus activities. Cooperation and cheerfulness are two of her attributes that rank her as a popular student on the Old Hill. Ruth was crowned during the May Fete by her Maid of Honor, Shirley Bergman HOME-COMI NG QUEEN From freshman to senior, brunette to blonde, beauty to beauty, youth to youth, I present to you the Home-coming Queen, Ruth Cooper. Thus, as Ruth was handed the bouquet of roses, she was proclaimed the Home-coming Queen of 1944. Coopie seems to be following in the footsteps of her big sister, Dolores, who was crowned queen in 1940. She is one of our Fine Arts students majoring in Voice. Ruth has been active in extra-curricular activities. HOME-COMING PROGRAM Friday, December 8 Hobo Day Freshman Formal Program, 8:00 P M Open Houses at Carnegie and Clark Halls, 9:00 P.

CLASS HISTORIES THE CLASS OF ' 45 The thirty-six members of our class who approached McKendree campus on September 7, 1942, were a distinguished looking group. Each was an individual in himself, and each had a different idea about college life. We were all eager for a college education combined with a little fun to make our studying more interesting. We ate regularly at meals and traveled the PC. Trail to town for our irregular meals. Our class is the last one to remember the old trail. It seems a pity, for it was such a short cut, especially when one was sipping a coke at Doc ' s when the bell rang for the next class. The hayride was quite an event. Everyone wore old clothes and stuffed their pockets with three or four hot dogs. The Y Mixer proved to be quite a success, although there were several who had sore arms the next day because they shook too many hands. Then we had the Hallowe ' en party in the gym. The Conference at Alton was a big event. Everyone seemed to be in a gay mood that day. Miss Ridgway had a little difficulty in packing the car, but Clifford Brown came to the rescue. Now let us turn the pages of our memory book until we reach our Freshman Picnic. It seemed we weren ' t successful in ringing the Chapel Bell, although Bill Stallings made a good attempt at it when he fell down the fire escape, trying to escape from the upperclassmen. On Initiation Night the girls had a little trouble too. Several jumped over Behymer ' s hedge in order to be hidden from the view of the upperclassmen who drove by in the college truck. You ask about Home-coming? Of course, we were the first freshman class to start a tradition. We had the first Formal Freshman Chapel Program. The girls wore their lovely formals and the boys wore their best suits. We really tried to impress the upperclassmen. The next day, Plato and Phi lo played their last game, with a score of 50-33 in favor of Plato. Shirley Bergman was crowned Home-coming Queen at the game. Shirley was the first freshman ever to be crowned queen. About this time some angels in Clark Hall had a hair-pulling and nail-scratch- ing fight. Soda bottles were stacked against dorm doors, chewing gum was thrown freely and as a result, a few people changed their place of habitation. Miss D had her trying moments with our class, but she seemed to keep us in hand by a persistent knocking on the steam pipes. The war was in its prime while we were freshmen and I ' m sure we all realized the fact. Our first blackout was an experience to remember. We sat calmly listen- ing to the roar of airplane motors overhead while all lights were extinguished. The Beechnut Buddies serenaded us with Christmas carols and My Gal Sal. The kitchen force was a very prominent crew. Each was bestowed with a dif- ferent talent and each tried to portray his talents on the food. They seemed to work well together, for I remember only a few fights. However, when things became too wild the pantry was the best place in which to lock them. Then came Senior Day, when two boys with tear-stained cheeks and faltering steps marched down the aisle and presented the school with two beautiful flags. With this memory is linked the memory of the dedication of the service flag, and the song, My Buddy. These were just two sad incidents that have made up our war-time education. Oh yes, how could we ever forget those summer courses and the way we used to slave over those hard subjects with perspiration trickling down our brow? How- ever, when Preachers School and Institute came around it was sweat that flowed from our brow. It was during summer school that we all witnessed the experience with the soldier who was supposed to have been a mental case who escaped from Scott Field. A suggestion was made to have the Carnegie Hall boys protect us, but the girls decided they could take care of themselves if all windows and doors were locked and beds moved to third floor. It was the same summer we had so much trouble over the water cooler. Our class has been scattered to the four corners of the earth because of the war and the accelerated program. There will be only fifteen members wearing caps and gowns and receiving their degrees on Commencement Day. We have learned a great deal from Old McK. We have learned how to live and, most of all, how to appreciate a college degree. THE CLASS OF ' 46 We registered at McKendree College, as the class of ' 46, one bright, sunny morning in September, 1942 — a very scared group of young people. Yes, we all lived in mortal terror until that frightful day of initiation was over. For us, it was either a lovely baptism in the beautiful lagoon on McKendree ' s back campus, or a very refreshing, brisk walk ' neath the stars to the college, from some unspecified point in Illinois. A few unfortunates suffered both. However, initiation rules did not bother us. To be truthful, we were quite proud to don the green caps. Most of us actually submitted to initiation quite peacefully. Admittedly, a year or two of college provides one with the knack of improving on unpromising material, and so, notwithstanding the few authentic scrimmages with the gentlemen (and ladies) of the three wiser years, we, of late, find our- selves relating to the new and unsuspecting freshmen just how successful we were in our vicious and recalcitrant attitude to any and all things related to the upper- classmen and initiation. Like all war classes, ours is not an exception, for through the weeks, months, and even years, many members of the class of ' 46 heeded the call of war. Today they may be found on any far-flung battlefield. Some were claimed by war, and sleep the eternal sleep. It is to them that we especially dedicate our undying thanks; for them our pride knows no bounds. With us they shall tread the Centen- nial path in caps and gowns. The class of ' 46 is a proud class, indeed. We feel quite assured that it will provide another strong link in the long chain of McKendree years. THE CLASS OF ' 47 Though ours is one of the smallest classes to enroll in McK. during this war- time period, we have, nevertheless, filled our position in the campus activities. Starting with only twenty-five members we proceeded to fit our lives into the col- lege program. Our picnic was the usual failure, but we en|oyed our rations (three or four potato chips and a quarter of a cup-cake are rations, aren ' t they ? ) free from molesting upperclassmen. A class of ' 47 skating party for the school has come to be a tradition. Most of our class has taken advantage of the accelerated program offered by the school. We leave these two years behind, not forgetting the dean ' s English Comp. class, Mode and Pete taking top honors in the Dorris, midnight snacks, and the biology trip to Missouri. Memories of the past make goals for the future. We ' re proud of McK. and hope we can make her proud of us. THE CLASS OF ' 48 When we, the class of ' 48, enrolled as freshmen at McKendree College last September, we were just as green and scared as the average freshmen. With green hats flying, we were chased many miles before dodging the upper- classmen during our initiation — a night long to be remembered by us all. Our officers for the year were Don Broadway, president; Eunice Hanbaura vice- president; and Elizabeth Crisp, secretary-treasurer. We are justly proud of our Freshman Basketball Team, for they remained unde- feated throughout the entire season. Also, we displayed our talents at the annual Formal Freshman Chapel Program. We, the Freshman Class, have enjoyed this year on the Old Hill and are eagerly looking forward to three more years at McKendree. 33 i!l $ n Bug Trip Time Out 1 She Has a MAN Dummies?
