THE OCTOPUS CLUB The Octopus, senior men ' s honorary society, was founded in the spring of 1927 by a group of seniors who saw the need of an organiza- tion to bind together in harmony the various groups on the campus, and to thus carry on, as a unit, the traditions and ambitions of Monmouth College. Banned from the campus in 1942 by a college order that forbade all secret organizations, the Octopus was reorganized and readmitted to campus recognition this year. The eight seniors who comprise the Octopus are selected late in the spring of their junior year by members of the preceding class. The selection is based upon campus activities and contributions to campus life. The identity of members of the Octopus, by tradition, is revealed in the Ravelings that is published just prior to their graduation. A scholarship fund to aid deserving underclassmen has been estab- lished this year. The award, in the amount of 150, will be announced annually at the time of Commencement. The fund is provided by active and alumni members, who presently number 175. Members of the Octopus for the past year were : John Goggin, Frank Testa, Don Tezalc, Burrell Calhoun, Harold Poling, Don White- man, Don Johnson, and Tony Palese. Professor Howard Jamieson is the faculty advisor for the group. [24]
