' •. ■ ■ I ■ m u TIMIL A ir IL 1 N C. s COPYBIGITI THE JUNIOR CLASS or MONMOUTH COLLEGE MONMOUTH PRESENTS ILL Tin ie RAVELING $ The i934 Ra ' EUi ' Gs is an illustrated history, not so much for the immediate benefit of those whose pictures appear in its pages, but to provide a more lively record of tho se characters and events to which Monmouth students and their friends may turn in years to come. There may be nothing novel in the scenes depicted here, yet to each Old Grad they will have a significance sweetened by memories of college days at Monmouth which, we trust will give an increasing value to the service for which this book is compiled.

That day marks a turning point in the history of the institution. At that time there came to Monmouth a man in the very prime of life under whose influence Monmouth College has taken her high place in the hearts of thousands of students, in the hearts of other thousands of friends of Chris- tion education, as well as in the educational world. At that time Monmouth had about 150 students in the college department and the faculty of all de- partments numbered 18. The college boasted four buildings. Old Main, built in 1:863, the Auditorium, built in 1897, a new gymnasium, built in 1902, (now the Little Theatre) and the Terrace, the president ' s home. This silver haired young man knew the problems and difficulties of a college from three viewpoints, but he had dreams for Monmouth and for service that could not be dimmed by mere problems, burned out by fire, bankrupted by hard times, nor tempted by flattering offers. He knew the viewpoint of the student and an alumnus. He had lived for many vears in daily contact with the problems that the president must face, for his father had been president for nineteen years. He knew what the church expected of its colleges, for he had been a successful minister. Through the vears he has never lost any of these perspectives. This year, on the thirtieth anniversary of the assumption of the presi- dency by Thomas Hanna McMichael, all Monmouth folk and all Monmouth friends join in expressing their love for him and their gratitude for what his dreams, his leadership, and his determination have accomplished.

We often speak of care-free college years, ' ' but su;h expressions do not well apply to these times of confusion, anxiety, and self-denial. I wish to pay a tribute to tlu many Monmouth students who in the hard year, 1932- 1933, have refused to submit to circumstances, and with smiling faces and brave hearts have held steadfastly to their college course. We look forward confidently to a time when those whose names and pictures appear in these pages will look back to their college days from po- sitions of honor, usefulness, and happiness. J. S. Cleland, Dean of the College- We are a body of friends, here at Monmouth Col- lege; and the closing of this college year, which mark.- for me the completion of the cycle of one whole student generation, finds me more than ever conscious of the mutual helpfulness and confidence which characterize the spirit of the institution. May each one of us make his best contribution to it and may no member ever miss the joy of full participation. Mary Ross Potter. Dean of Women. Last year I said we would always remember 1932. — a year of Depression, Sacrifice and Achievement. May we now look forward to another year of Achievement. but with a minimum of Depression and Sacrifice. D. M. McMichael. Page Sevente HUGH R.

Our stalwarts have upheld the athletic reputation of the college; in the dramatic field, we have had our Arliss and our Garbo ; our musicians have rivalled Pan in sweetness; embryonic Shakespeares have leavened our literary mass; and in the fields of forensics and scholarship, our superminds have blazed a white path of glory. I repeat, we are a great class. And yet, despite our admitted excellence in all things collegiately aca- demic, we cannot truthfully say, with Ca:sar, We came, we saw, we con- quered. Our history may be better epitomized by the Persian philosopher ' s history of mankind : They were born, they suffered, they died. Even so we entered these collegiate halls, struggled manfully, and in a few weeks are to pass from them. Yet, because we spent four years here, Monmouth College has been enriched. But, more important, we will carry out into the world a great deal of Monmouth. Page Twenty-two MARY ADAMS a. Calif.

Junior Class History President Clyde McDaxiels Vice; President Robert Laxson Secretary-Treasurer Eleanor Gehr Junior Class Officers Oh — what memoral events this class of 1934 has witnessed on the campus of Monmouth College! When we as freshmen, 188 strong and full of the biggest dreams and aspirations, came to college, it was the year in which the depression was just beginning to be felt and ac- knowledged. But we forgot our worldly troubles and enjoyed dancing. For it was the dancing that distinguished that year from the others; never before bail the campus participated in it. Though failing to reach the top of the pole we determined not to be again downed and set to work to make our- selves known in all phases of college life. On September 16, 193 1, realizing the sophisticated level that we hail attained, more or less depleted in number, we felt that a depression was not to be forgotten in dancing, but that it was a serious thing. But we won ' t be downed. Wholeheartedly we captured honors in athletics, forensics, dramatics, and scholarship. On September 18, 1933, the big and powerful class was reduced to 77 members. Put it witnessed the coming back of beer — it roused our sinking spirits — and bigger and better than before we have sailed through our third year of college. Tims sorrowfully, we see our college days slipping by with only one more year in which to fulfill those dreams and aspirations that sprang up in us as we gazed upon the beloved buildings of Monmouth College in 1930. What memoral event will occur next year? Oh — may the depression have flown from this country! No matter, we will not be downed!

Sophomore Class Officers President Russell Hutchison Vice President Herbert Merieeat Secretary-Treasurer Kathryn Surratt Sophomore Class History If a motto could be drawn from the first two years at Monmouth of the class of 1935, it would be, Never Do Things Halfway. It doesn ' t. Almost ever} ' class that arrives on the campus can sunn lay claim U the distinction of losing one pole scrap. The class of ' 35, being no pikers, succeeded. in dropping two. Quickly and thoroughly surmounting any little difficulties that may have arisen from these trivialities, however, the class has moved onward and upward. The star of the class is now in the ascendancy. Throughout the campus, its members are known as leaders and workers, who never do things half way. Page Forty-one First Row— R. Jackson, E. Siir D.

The members have continued to fight for their college in the realm of sports, dramatics, and scholastic ability. Though the Freshmen have not always won in their adventures, thev have fought well, and have maintained an invincible spirit. Thev covered themselves with glory in the first few weeks of school by crushing the Sophomores; the first time in five years that the. ' Freshmen have succeeded in placing their colors on top of the pole. In athletics we have fared reasonably well. Although not turning out any exceptional teams, many promising and valuable men have been un- covered, which will simply plenty of material for Monmouth ' s varsity in all lines of sports. It was the same unconquerable spirit which predominated in debate, and Crimson Masque. Perhaps the year is too recent for them to realize all it has given them, but because of this year ' s experience, and influence thev will come back next year stronger, and better able to meet the difficulties, joys, and honors which are inevitable.

The organization is peculiarly unique in its selection of members. Each spring the unknown Senior men, who comprise the undergraduate roll, select the eight Juniors, who seemingly have been the most outstanding men of their class in scholarship, character, and campus activities. The identity of neither group is then revealed. The Senior group is disclosed at the time the Ravelings is published. The public announcement gives the eight Senior men the right to wear the emblem of the organization, which is a gold key with an octopus and other secret insignia inscribed thereon. • During the five years it has existed there have been fifty-nine men initiated into the organization; the original group having consisted of eleven men. The alumni group is well organized and meets twice each year. The business meeting is held at Homecoming time and a social event on the evening of Commencement Day. The officers of the alumni organization are : President Robert Acheson, ' 28, Chicago.

The atmosphere was realistic ami the action fast. A Woman of Character Minna Fricke, Director In contrast to the preceding play, the cast for A Woman of Character was composed entirely of women. Maxine Turnhull showed her fellow club members how a hat reflects personality. Jazz and Minuet Margaret Scott, Director Clever costuming and good characterizations combined to make vivid the story of the modern girl who, through reliving the events of a diary, learned a lesson in love. FEBRUARY 24, 1933 A Smaee Down Payment Robert Dickey, Director The experiences of a young couple who became victims of the install- ment plan were amusingly portrayed by a cast which brought out good com- edy effects in diverse roles. What Never Dies Louise Thornhill, Director The human interest in a story of mother love and scrub-women ' s secret ambitions together with excellent character work produced one of the most appealing plays of the season. The Lost Elevator Virginia Faris, Director Because of its unusual setting, clever lighting effects and surprising situations, this play might be considered the most novel production of the year. Page Seventy-seven Province Convention From April 3 to April 5, 1933, Monmcmtb College was host to repre- sentatives of schools in the Illinois-Wisconsin Province oi Pi Kappa Delta. At the banquet on the last evening more than one hundred and thirty people were present. Four teams from Monmouth entered the tournament. The two wo- men ' s teams were composed of Elizabeth Funk, Ruth Bohman and Nathalie Lytle for the affirmative and Cleo Stephens, Jane Hoyman and Claramae Miller for the negative. They won their contests against Ripon, North Central and Normal, and lost to Wheaton, Carroll and another team from Normal. The men ' s teams were composed of Thomas Robinson, David Stevenson and William Baird for the affirmative, and George Borthwick and Wilbur Lester for the negative. The men won tour of their six con- tests. In the extempore speaking lists of the convention, two Freshmen. Wil- bur Lester and Eva Reid, carried off high honors. Air. Lester tied tor tirst place in his division, while Miss Reid placed second in hers. Oratory At the contest of Illinois State Oratorical Association this year, Mon- mouth College was represented by Virginia Faris and George Borthwick. Miss Faris placed fourth in the women ' s contest with her oration, Rebuild the House, and Mi . Borthwick placed second in the men ' s contest with his oration, New Frontiers. Mr. Borthwick also represented the college again in the oratorical contest id the I ' i Kappa Delta Convention. Paw Seventy-eight rorensics The instructor and coach in the forensics division of our campus work is Professor S. R. Toussaint. Since Mr. Toussaint came to Monmouth he has represented the Illinois Zeta chapter of Pi Kappa Delta as governor of the province of Illinois and Wisconsin, and he is now second national vice president of the fraternity. This year, under his direction, Monmouth en- tertained the Illinois-Wisconsin province, and next year, Air. Toussaint will he directing the national convention at Lexington, Kentucky. Under Mr. Toussaint ' s coaching the Monmouth College women de- baters won the national Tournament at Tiffin, Ohio in 1928, and first place in the Illinois State League in 1931. At the province convention in 1929 both men and women stood first, and the women maintained their record in 193 1 . Monmouth College students who have known Mr. Toussaint as a coach in any forensic work base their loyalty to him much more on the fine spirit of comradeship and trust which he has offered to them than on any success which he and his teams have achieved, and in Toots they have found one of their finest friends and leaders. H. Maynard, N. Lytic, E. Reid. C. Miller, Prof. Toussaint. C. Stephens. E. Funk. R. Bohman. J. Hoyma Women ' s Debate Seven women participated in intercollegiate debating this year, discus- sing the question, Resolved, that this house should support the League for Independent Political Action in its move to organize a new political party. Cleo Stephens led the negative team with Jane Ilovman and Claramae Miller to help her. Elizabeth Funk led the affirmative team with Ruth Boh- man. Nathalie Lytle and Eva Reid to follow her. The women held non-decision debates with Cornell, Ripon, Carroll, North Central, Lawrence and Yugustana Colleges. One very interesting trip into Wisconsin almost met disaster when the Monmouth banks closed their doors on March 4. hut two weeks later, the girls set forth for a session of five debates. In the Illinois State League, the women lost all four of their de- bates against Augustana, Wheaton, Normal and DeKalb. Ruth Bohman and Elizabeth Punk, the two seniors of the squad, will lie missed greatly next year, and it is to he hoped that very many more women will enter the lists next fall. W. Lester, D. Ste Men ' s Debate The men ' s season in debate was more successful this year than last. In the state league contests they won three of their six decision debates on the question, Resolved, that all banking functions should be regulated by the federal government with deposits guaranteed. The}- won in their encoun- ters with Augustana, St. Viator ' s and Illinois Wesleyan colleges and lost to Illinois and Wheaton colleges and Normal University. The men engaged in a number of non-decision debates, meeting the de- baters of Shurtleff, LeiVIoyne, Lake Forest, Illinois Wesleyan, Augustana, North Central, Carthage and Macomb. An interesting contest was the orie with Carthage which was broadcast from Station WCAZ. Tom Robinson and George Borthwick led the teams. On the affirmative Mr. Robinson was supported by David Stevenson, William Baird and Stan- ley Kyle and on the negative Mr. Borthwick was supported by Wilbur Lester and Clarence Patterson. Paste EiKhty-.i .M, Artists ' Course Concerts Unusual interest was manifest in the Artists ' Course this year because of the outstanding performers secured. The first concert was given by Arthur Kraft, tenor, of New York. His rich voice and careful interpretation easily won the .admiration of the large audience. Perhaps the highlight of the season was the piano recital of Percy Grainger, world-famous pianist-composer. Air. Grainger in his own in- formal style presented a varied and highly appreciated program to a capacitv crowd. Another outstanding concert of the season was the Two-Piano Recital presented by Edna Browning Riggs and Grace Gawthrop Peterson, assisted by Karle Davis, pianist, and Thomas Hoffman Hamilton, baritone. This was the must artistic and finished program given by faculty members for many years, and was well received by the large audience. Playing to a capacity crowd, Earle Davis scored an immediate success in his unusual Classical Jazz recital. This program of modern classics was ably interpreted by Mr. Davis. Unusual modern decorations added an in- teresting touch of color. Pane KiuMy-lv Conservatory Faculty THOMAS HOFFMAN HAMILTON Director of Conservatory Teacher of Voice A. B.

Hart, Director of Athletics, has proved himself to be more than a coach, an ex- ecutive and organizer as well. Mr. Hart competed in sports at Purdue. He came to Monmouth in 1924. Not only has he developed good teams, but he has placed our athletics on a par with the best small col- leges in the country. COACH TAYLOR Coach Warren Taylor came to Monmouth three years ago as football coach. Taylor played four years on Monmouth College teams, and was the send- ing end of the Taylor to Molesworth passing combi- nation. Since his return to Monmouth College Ath- letics he has shown himself to be a producer, as well as a member of championship teams. COACH SMILEY Coach Robert Smiley has been basketball and baseball coach for the past four years, and is respon- sible for our successful teams during that time. Bod is a former Monmouth College basketball star, and at one time was voted the most valuable player in the Little 19 Conference. His work as a coach has been equally outstanding.

The victories were over Carthage, Cornell, Burlington Junior College and Knox. Defeats were at the hands of Chicago, Illinois College and Bradley. Coe and Monmouth battled to a six to six tie and at Augustana homecoming Monmouth held the Vikings to a scoreless tie despite the fact that Augustana claimed the best team in history. The Fighting Scots opened the football season September 24 with a game against the University of Chicago at Stagg Field. It was during the opening minutes of the game that Monmouth looked best, when they made three con- secutive first downs against the Maroons, after getting the ball on their $2 yard line, the advance being halted only on Chicago ' s nine yard line. After the opening attack Monmouth was mainly on the defensive and the Maroons ran up a score of 41-0. On October 1, Monmouth won its first home game from Burlington Junior College. The score was 21-0. The Scots romped over two touch- downs in the first five minutes of play, and the rest of the game was subject to extensive substitutions and investigation of backfield combinations by Coaches Hart and Taylor. The next Saturday Monmouth played a strong Coe team to a 6-6 tie at Cedar Rapids. Monmou th ' s touchdown resulted from a freak play which nearly set a record for the number of men contacting a football from the moment it left the center ' s hands until a touchdown had been scored. Some say six men touched the ball, others say only five. The play consisted of a bad pass from center, a completed forwad pass, a brief run, a lateral pass, an intercepted pass and a touchdown. At any rate Pressly finally got his big hands on the ball and stepped across for a touchdown. Patri. ' Ninety-thr The Scots ' first Little 19 encounter was with Illinois College the follow- ing week. After .Monmouth had twice carried the ball to within five yards of the Blueboys ' goal, only to fail when the final opportunity to score pre- sented itself, a completed forward pass gave Illinois a touchdown and a victory of 7-0. Breaks helped Monmouth defeat Cornell here in a Midwest conference game at Homecoming. Statistics of the game show that the teams were evenly matched. Cornell opened a desperate passing attack in the last quarter that threatened to tie the score but the Scots were able to hat down the passes within scoring range. The score was 13-6. The following week the Scots battled the undefeated Augustana eleven to a scoreless tie he fore a large crowd of Augie Homecomers. The game finally developed into a kicking duel between I ' .ell and Marack. Monmouth ' s much lighter team broke up the reverses and passes usually behind the Augie line and Monmouth was unable to get past their opponents ' secondary. In the Carthage game Monmouth showed great offensive strength, scor- ing five touchdowns. With Speer hack in shape to furnish the hard-hitting element to the fast hut light hack field, the Scotch looked much like the last year ' s team of Little Nineteen Champions. The score was 33-13. Monmouth lost to Bradley at Peoria as a result of a had first half in which the team never got going offensively and played ragged defensive ball. In the second half Monmouth came hack strong but not quite strong enough to overcome the twenty point lead. The score was 20-14. Fape Ninety- four «C Thanksgiving Day furnished perfect weather for the 48th football game between Monmouth and Knox and a crowd slightly smaller than usual, but no less enthusiastic, was on hand to see the battle. Fur three quarters Monmouth was unable to score although her team held the upper hand without question. In the fourth quarter Monmouth scored three touchdowns and kicked goal twice. Fans who saw the game probably got their biggest thrill when little 127 pound Bobby W ' o ll ran back a Knox punt 65 yards to the five yard line from which the second touchdown was scored a moment later. Four Mon- mouth men played their final college football game: B. Speer, Wm. Bell, A. Grauer, and John Weatherlv. Monmouth ' s two wins and tie in the Midwest Conference gave them a tie with Carleton for first honors in the Midwest loop.

For the first time in history, a hasketball team representing Monmouth College has gone through the season without the loss of a home game. We hope this will become a tradition that will he continued. As far as the games plaved away from home are concerned, the season was not so successful. The Scot cagers plaved ten contests on foreign courts, and were victorious in only four of them. Monmouth played a total of 18 games, with 12 wins and 6 losses. I11 the matter of ranking, the Scots placed second in the Mid- west Conference, and finished with a percentage of .500 in the Little Nine- teen C n ference. The season was opened on the home court with a practice game against the Burlington Y. M. C. A. This was a typical opening game, a hit wild and marked by heavy scoring. Monmouth emerged victorious with a score of 40 to . The next game was also at home, ami the Scots functioned smoothlv to tromp Ripon to the tune of 38 to 17. The first game away from home was played against Iowa University at Iowa City. Although bothered by stage-fright and other symptoms of nervousness during the first half, the Fighting Scots lived up to their name in the last half, outscoring the Hawk- eves, and nearly upsetting the much abused dope-bucket. The Big Ten team, which won third place in the Western Conference this season, eked out a narrow 28 to 22 win. The next two games were with Iowa Wesleyan, and Monmouth won both. On January 13 the Scots treked up into the Nort hland and were handed a 32 to 2j defeat by the ever victorious Carleton team, perennial champions of the Midwest Conference. Following this disaster was the beating at the hands of Augustana, 49 to 29. This was the first time Augie has beaten a Monmouth basketball team in five years, hut the Scots took ample vengeance when they met the Swedes on their home floor a tew weeks later. Any paper superiorityKnox cagers might have held over the Scots failed to materialize when the two met at the Galesburg armory. Monmouth oxer- came a six point lead held by the Siwash at the half to win the game by two points, 26 to 24. The inability of Coe to guard Ozburn in the next home game was costly for them. Monmouth achieved a decisive victory over the strong Kohawk team which had just won six straight games. The score was iy to 19. The next two games were with Beloit and Bradley. The Scots won over Beloit, 29 to 21, but suffered defeat at the hands of Bradley Indians. Monmouth began the annual invasion of Wisconsin in an inauspicious manner, when Carroll ' s powerful machine functioned perfectly to flatten a stubborn Scot defense 36 to 22. The game at Appleton, the following even- ing, proved to be more satisfactory, as the locals rallied to trip Lawrence. 31 to 28, in a Midwest conference game. In the third night of the trip, a weary Scotch five proved to be no match for the versatile Lovola cagers, and lost to the Chicago boys, 35 to 17. In the next home game the Scotch five played seemingly inspired ball, and defeated the powerful Augie team, 41 to 20. This game was the sweet vengeance for the trouncing received on the Augustana home floor the first time the two met this season. In the last home game of the season, the Scotch five again showed a marked superiority over the Knox cagers, and closed the season on the home court with a win of 41 to 25. The last game was an unimpressive affair at Mt. Vernon. Monmouth defeated the Cornell five 26 to 22, to place second in the Midwest Conference. Jack Ozburn, lanky junior center, was a feature attraction in every game this year. He was high scorer for the season. His work in getting the ball at the tip-off was consistent, and his plav under the basket was un- canny and beautiful to behold. Jack was given center position on the first team in the A. P. Allstar Little 19 Selections. Red McLoskey played his fourth and last year on Monmouth College basketball teams. Leo played a steady, dependable game of ball and was always a scrapper. Red ' was always one of the first in position to shoot a basket. The other forward position was held down by little Bobby Woll. Woll ' s speed and cleverness more than made up for his lack «.t height, and his eye for the basket was dangerous. McDaniels, a junior, and Kuding, a sophomore played the guard posi- tions. Both of these men were able floor workers and good judges of the opponents ' strength. McDaniels had a way of sinking baskets that required a lot of consideration by opposing forwards, and Nudings work on defense was an equally difficult problem. Akers, Fitchie, and Countryman, all played guard and all saw considerable service on the hardwood court. They made it tough for opponents on a num- ber of occasions. Cactus McConnell, a lanky individual, was valuable for his work at the center of the floor. Joe Meyer, a veteran for ward, and Irwin, a sophomore, were often called upon to can - } ' on the attack. All of the above men, with the exception of McLoskey will be available for next year ' s squad. With such eligible material to draw from Monmouth fans may rest assured that the next basketball season will be as successlul as the last. Awards were given to McDaniels, Nuding, Ozburn, Woll, and McLoskey.

Tbe team was handicapped to a great extent by ineligibility of several of their most promising players, and the showing might have been different had these men been able to play. The Freshmen played four games this year, two against the Knox fresh- men, one against Burlington Junior College, and one against the Roosevelt Military School at Aledo, but were unable to chalk up a single victory. Five Freshmen received numerals: Newbury, Tangman, Barron, Mc- Conachie, and Walters. Pasre One Hundred On Athletic Board of Control The Athletic Board of Control directs the general policies of the Mon- mouth College Athletic Association. It approves the intercollegiate sched- ules, makes the awards for varsity and fr eshman competition, and oversees the financial transactions of the athletic department. The hoard is composed of Coach Hart, S. R. Toussaint. Dr. Graham, Dr. Sherrick, Max Turnbull, Dr. McMichael. Clyde McDaniels, Carroll Van Gundy, and E. A. McMillan. The M Club The M Club embodies in itself a spirit of those principles which are highest in the promotion of general well being on Monmouth ' s campus. In order to achieve membership in this organization, one must earn the award of an M in any major sport and also live up to the ideals of the club. The ideals are, good sportsmanship, ideal living, clean speech, high scholar- ship, and fidelity to the traditions of Old M. C. Pasie Om- Hundred Twc 1932 BASEBALL SQUAD Baseball Monmouth College has hail a record for many years of turning out good baseball .teams, and the 1933 team promises to be no exception to the rule. Veterans responding to Coach Smiley ' s call for baseball candidates are Woll, McDaniels, Bell, Myers, Speer, Heil, and Bencini. Among the new men are York, Fitchie, Tinker. Acheson, Robb, Akers, and Countryman. With these men Coach Smile v has developed a team which has started the season in great style. The pitching staff consists of York and Fitchie. York is a southpaw and Fitchie a right-handed hurler, both have pitched some nice games. Tinker is behind the bat as catcher, Woll is holding down the shortstop position, Myers is at first, Bencini and Akers at second, and Bell and Countryman on third. Heil, McDaniels, Speer, Robb, Acheson and York fill in the other positions. The first three games were with the Macomb Teachers, and Monmouth succeeded in winning all three, and there seems to be no reason why th e rest of the schedule cannot be completed in the same fashion. Pane One Hundred Thr l!i:C TRACK SlJl ' AI ' Track The 1933 Track season opened for Monmouth College with the Little 19 Indoor Track and Field Meet at North Central. Monmouth finished fifth in the final tabulation with 8 points. The meet was won by North Central. Weatherly got off to one of the best starts in his career as a college con- testant, and led the entire field in the 60 yard dash, but faltered at the forty yard mark and finished fourth. Matchett and Grills finished third and fourth respectively in the 880 yard run, Hutton of Illinois Normal setting a new record of 2.03. The Relay Team met with a piece of hard luck when Laxson slipped and fell on one of the turns, and failed to place. The team faces one of the hardest schedules Monmouth has had to run for years, but in spite of the tough schedule and the slow beginning, with plenty of warm spring weather to develop the field men the chances are favorable fur another championship team on the outdoor track. Page Ono Hundred Four owimming Monmouth College was host to swimmers in two meets this year. The first was a triangular meet, held here March 10, ami the second was the Annual Little Nineteen Meet. As a result, mure interest was shown in swimming at Monmouth than previously. Augustana, Knox, and Monmouth were the schools competing in the Triangular meet. Knox placed first, Monmouth was second, and Augustana third. Myers won the ioo yard back-stroke and placed second in the diving. Monmouth also placed second in both of the relay events. Illinois Wesleyan and Knox battled for first place in the Little 19 meet held two weeks later. Illinois Wesleyan won the last event, the medley relay, and consequently the meet. Knox placed second, Bradley third and Mon- mouth fourth. Myers won a second in the backstroke in this meet, and the medley relay team also succeeded in getting a second place. AW of this year ' s team, with the exception of Kyle, will be available for competition next year, and with the addition of several outstanding freshmen should be able to give a good account of themselves in next rear ' s matches. Paw One Hundred Fi ' Intramural Athletics Intramural Athletics have been built up by Athletic Director Hart until this department has become of major interest among the various organiza- tions on the campus. The program at present is very complete, and is so arranged that any boy in college may participate. Almost every sport rep- resented is included, and a trophy becomes the temporary possession of the organization winning in each sport. The following sports are included: touch football, volleyball, basketball, indoor and outdoor track, swimming, baseball, and tennis. A permanent trophy is given to the organization rank- ing highest for the entire year. Last year this trophy was won by the Tekes. The function of the department may be summed up to be : To encour- age the entire male student body to participate in organized athletics, and to instill in the various students those characteristics of fair play, sportsman- ship and manhood that make real students as well as real men. The Intramural competition began with touch football. This is the second year touch football has been included in the program, and the race for first honors was close. The Beta Kappas tied the Tekes in the number of wins and losses, but due to the point system, in which extra credit is given for the number of men competing and men on the football squad, the Beta Kappas won first place. The Tekes were second and the Tiny Tots third. The next branch of intramural activity was volley ball. The Tekes won this trophy, with 17 games won and 3 lost. The Beta Kappas were second with 13 wins, 7 losses, and the T. U. O. ' s were third. One Hundred Six The Tiny Tots won the basketball championship. They developed an exceptionally strong team this year, with a number of freshman players. These men should make a strong bid for the varsity next vear. The Phi Kapps were second, and T. U. O. ' s and Tekes tied for third. Two swimming meets were held, and proved to be the fastest intramural swimming for several years. Nearly all of the old records were broken, and promising material for the varsity was discovered. The Tekes won first place, the Beta Kappas were second, and the T. U. O. ' s were third. The Beta Kappas were leading as the first half of the indoor track meet was staged, with the Tiny Tots a good second, and the Tekes third. Mat- chett established the only new record in the meet so far, running the half mile in 2:9.9. The outdoor track meet will be held later in the spring. As the Ravelings goes to press, we find that the Beta Kappas have stepped slightly into the lead in baseball, defeating the Tekes 6 to 5 in the first game of the season. The tennis matches are vet to be played. Below is a chart showing the intramural standing to date: BK. TKE. TUO. PMKap. Tots Con,.

This increase in membership was due In the combined efforts of Miss Virginia McEwen and the V. A. A. Officers. Pace One Hundred Eight HOCKEY Interest in hockey has greatly increased during the past two rears. The Freshmen and Sophomores especially were faithful in attending practices held in the hockey field just hack of the tennis courts. This rear the Fresh- men won the tournament much to the chagrin of the Sophomores who de- feated the Junior-Senior team and were hoping for the championship. Hockey hrings many lame ankles, knees and fingers, but it deyelops fine - sportsmanship and is a grand game greatly enjoyed by the stick-holders. BASKETBALL Usually there are two tournaments in basketball but this year only one was played. The Sophomores were victorious. Basketball is played twice a week in the cracker box and once a week in the gym. The tournament games are played in the gym and create much excitement among the women athletes. Team work is most efficiently developed in the game of basketball. The team work of the Sophomores was especially good this vear. SWIMMING Betty McClenahan, Dorothy Wright, Dorothy P ' ield, Virginia Goodwin, Jane Hoyman, Mildred Jackson and Frances Mills passed the Red Cross Life Saving examination this year. Miss Virginia McEwen and Miss Caroline Wright, assistant, are the in- structors in this sport. An intramural swimming meet is always held at the last of the school year. Events are : 40 yard crawl. 40 yard racing back stroke, 40 yard breast stroke, plunge for distance, stunts, diving, relays, etc. ARCHERY The newest sport to be introduced to the women of the college is ar- chery. It is receiving a growing amount of interest. Two bows and two sets of arrows are in possession of the W. A. A. anil may be used for tar- get practice. Pace One Hundred Ni; TENNIS been a favorite sport among the women of the col- Tennis has alway: lege. Tournaments are held each year within the bounds of the college as no intercollegiate games are allowed. An important part in the program for play day is the sport tennis. HIKING AND HORSE-BACK RIDING Both of these sports have special adherents. Hiking has become quite a popular sport among the freshmen. Then of course, there ' s soccer and volley ball. AWARDS Awards given are based on the number of points gained in athletic par- ticipation. Five points are given for each hour Spent in practice and when 1,200 points have been earned the letter M is awarded. When 1,500 p lints have been gained a sweater in addition to the M is given to the winner. Women winning sweaters were: Mary Finney, Lillian Gibson, Virginia Quade, and Ruth Chaffee. Margaret Scott was awarded an .M . The newest members of the W. A. A. not in the picture are: E Ryan, E. Smith, M. Jackson. 1. M . Brown, P. Brown, R. McBride, V . Krasity, M. Fidler and M. E. Kilpatrick. Paso One Hundred Te Play Day Play Day of 1932 was the most outstanding event of the year for the W. A.- A. members. Monmouth was the hostess to the six other schools participating. Each school was represented by 12 women and a full day was given over to the enjoyment of sports followed by a banquet in McMichael dormitory. Play Day this year is to be held at Bradley and Monmouth will be rep- resented there by six women. Page One Hundred Eleven Page One Hundred Twelve FEATURES J|wC Pole Scrap At the sound of the college whistle at 8:45 September 28, there was a great deal of disturbance on the campus. By the end of the hour period al- lowed them, the Sophomores were established around the pole and the Fresh- men were impatiently waiting for the chance to rush the pole. After a brief struggle, the Frosh managed to supplant the Sophs with their own men around the pole where they remained during most of the scrap. Although they had the pole largely to themselves during the contest, they found great difficulty in mounting because of its height ami smoothness. Thorpe Earp of Monmouth finally accomplished the great feat of reach- ing the top and placing the Frosh colors on top of the pole, letting the Soph colors ' flutter to the ground. Earp is the first Freshman to plant his colors on the pole since 1928. The scrap seemed rather tame to most of the previous spectacles, hut was rather exciting, due to the great num ber of attempts made by various Freshmen to reach the top. Pape One Hundred Fifteen Homecoming Homecoming was a success from the Homecoming Chapel held on Fri- day morning to the Homecoming Vespers on Sabbath afternoon, which closed the 1932 event. An open house was held at Wallace Hall the Friday evening preceding Homecoming, in order to afford early arrivals an opportunity to meet old friends and new students. October 22 dawned with the promise of rain, much to the consterna- tion of many who had spent a great ileal of time in attractively decorating homes and floats. However, the events of the morning were run off very smoothly. First came the parade, which was both picturesque and amusing, followed liv a hockey game presented by the girls, and a touch football game between the Tekes and the Beta Kappas, which was halted at the half by rain. The homecoming spirit was intensified by a gratifying victory over Cornell, and was brought to a climax after several sorority and fraternity dinners by the presentation of the Junior Class Plav, Skinner ' s Dress Suit, in the auditorium Saturday evening.

Pase One Hundred Nineteen think Ten Talking Points! FOR USE BY MONMOUTH STUDENTS When Talking Monmouth to Their Friends 1. EDUCATIONAL STANDING— Only one-fourth of the colleges and universities of America are on the approved list of the Association of American Universities. Monmouth ' s name is on this list and also on the list of every other important edu- cational association. 2. EQUIPMENT AND ENDOWMENT— Monmouth has twelve well equipped build- ings on an attractive thirty-acre campus. Monmouth ' s gymnasium and athletic field provide an equipment for sports unexcelled in the Mid-West. Her endow- ment of two million dollars is much more than that of most colleges of her size and type. 3. CHRISTIAN ATMOSPHERE— The aim of the faculty and students of Mon- mouth is to maintain an atmosphere which is friendly, democratic, inspiring, and favorable to the development of Christian ideals. 4. ACHIEVEMENT OF GRADUATES— Monmouth graduates are in leading posi- tions in business, education, government, journalism, law, medicine, ministry, social service, and many other fields. 5. COSMOPOLITAN QUALITY— Monmouth is not like a local college. She is free from the provincialism which is likely to develop in an institution in which nearly all of the students come from the vicinity of the college. Last year, stu- dents came to Monmouth from twenty-four States. 6. ACCESSIBILITY— -Monmouth ' s location on the main line of the C. B. Q., the M. St. L. and a north and south division of the C. B. Q.. makes access by rail convenient. Also, Monmouth is on four important State and National highways. 7. LOW COST — Not many colleges of Monmouth ' s equipment and educational stand- ing have kept their charges for tuition and fees to a figure so low as Monmouth ' s. 8. A SMALL AND PERSONAL COLLEGE— At Monmouth a student is encour- aged to do his best because his work and achievements are known to the whole college community. The student retains his individuality, he is not lost in the crowd. 9. SUPERIOR TEACHING FORCE— There is an unusual stability to the Mon- mouth faculty and long tenure of office is the rule. Monmouth teachers are well trained. About half of the heads of departments have the Ph. D. degree and others have the equivalent in training and experience. As an evidence of the breadth of culture of the Monmouth faculty, it may be remarked that one-third of the Monmouth teachers have studied or have taught European universities, and several have had extensive foreign travel. 10. BROAD PROGRAM OF EXTRA CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES— Monmouth ' s good record in athletics is well known to high school students. She is equally successful in forensics, dramatics, music, journalism, and other fields. Last year the Monmouth football team won the Little Nineteen and the Mid-West cham- pionships, a Monmouth girl represented the State in the woman ' s division of the Inter-State Oratorical Contest, and the Monmouth men ' s glee club represented Illinois in the National Contest of College and University Glee Clubs.
