There is really no pa£t but all is in the present. We are living it, enjoying it, building for the future. But the hand of Time will soon dim the realities, cloud the vivid memories and erase from our thoughts some of the mo$t cherished associations of our school years. To permanently record the events of the year 1924-25 in this volume, in an interesting and accurate manner, not in the form of a publi- cation of great literary merit, but as the simple chronicle of the college as a whole, has been our aim The Campus, the Velvety Campus Were a Granger suddenly set down before the Chapel Gateway on some beautiful spring morning, and should he see the campus for the firSt time, he would swear that he were juft at the gates of some wonderful nook of quiet and peace, and he would scarcely breathe for fear of breaking the balmy Stillness. For on a spring morning the campus takes upon itself a glittering radiance which glistens brightly in the great open spaces of the velvety green lawns yet subdues itself to a shadowy dark- ness under the branches of the whis- pering maples which Stand as silent sentinels above each path, each walk, each hall, lending to the scene a golden sheen that spreads before one in a complete picture of glorious beauty.

Barrows became director of the Simpson Conservatory. To him at that time our conservatory was only a dream. To make this dream come true Professor Barrows gave not only of his worldly goods, but of his heart and soul. With constant work, thought, and money, for over thirty years he moulded his dreams, and has produced our own Simpson Conservatory. In 1891 Professor Barrows was assigned rooms in the Science Hall: was afterwards moved to the ladies’ hall, thence to the chapel building. In a short time the music department was moved from the chapel to a private residence, thence to rooms down town, and when the old administration building was completed, it found quarters until its permanent, home was erect- ed. In the fall of 1891 there were but twenty music students registered in the musical department. In the winter term of 1925 two hundred pupils were registered. This year has brought about a change in the Simp- son Conservatory. It has started on a new era under the direction of Herbert A. Harvey. He is carrying on the dreams of Professor Barrows and has made them his own. lie has become a new inspiration and help to his pupils and has made a great success of his year’s work.

The credit for the success of Simpson’s teams must go in a large measure to Coach Workman who is now finishing his second year at Simpson. Our school lias always had a great fighting spirit but it took the skill of expert coaching to utilize that spirit to produce victory. True, victory has not always been gained in contests hut there has always been the assurance that the team was giving its best and that the best was not to be scoffed at. Simpson is considered among the foremost of the Iowa colleges in athletic competition and this respect has been gained through the untiring efforts of Coach Workman, himself an athlete, student, and honorable man. In his endeavors to inspire into his men the same admired qualities he has been enviably successful. Page 75 “S” CLUB OFFICERS Walter McCoy................ Tiiad Moore.................

However, the student body’s great faith in the ability of Coach Workman assured all minds that he would produce a team worthy of our college. Yet little did they dream of another championship team. The coach was forced to choose his new men from Freshmen and non-letter upper classmen. However, his material was good in such men as Garbett of Melcher, McCoy of Indianola, Moore of Villisca. McCarthy of Griswold, Lavland of Audubon, Johnson of Bloomfield. Bramhall of Iloswell. Xew Mexico, and Baldwin of Indianola. Simpson 25—Iowa Wesleyan 6. This was a loosely played game, not filled with thrilling runs and passes, although Baldwin grabbed a pass over the goal for a touchdown. Sutton, guard, proved a bulwark of strength in the line. While this was not a sensational game, it proved valuable to both teams. Simpson 29—St. Ambrose 0. The second game was at Indianola when the visitors from Davenport invaded our tranquil city with an ambitious desire of wrecking our possibilities of conference running, but the Red and Gold had not the same team which appeared at Mount Pleasant. Although the line-up was practically the same, it composed a machine that moved with clock-like precision up and down the field. The Catholics fought gamely, but could not check the advancing Simpson warriors who piled up four touchdowns and a place kick on their opponents before the final whistle ended the battle. Page SI Laylniu), C. McCoy Boren. Sutton Simpson 13—State Teachers 0. This was homecoming for the Tutors and an immense crowd was present to see the two rivals battle. The Teachers put up a stubborn fight which made it difficult for Simpson’s offense to get under way. and the gold jerseyed warriors crossed the goal line only once, the other six points being the result of two place kicks by Mercer. The Teachers were unable to effectually penetrate the Simpson line. In the fourth quarter, the foe threat- ened to score when they advanced to the one-yard line where Simpson held them for five downs, pushing them back each time. Simpson 29—Penn 0. Simpson continued in her march toward the champion- ship when she defeated Penn at Indianola. Although Simpson clearly outclassed the Quakers, it was a costly victory as Toom and Sutton, guards, both received injuries which kept them out of the important game with Parsons the next week. Penn opposed with a brilliant fight, but Karr, quarterback, proved himself to be an exceptional field general by displaying such strategy that the Quaker warriors were puzzled. Baldwin and Holladay. tackles, marie things miserable for the Quakers by breaking up many plays while Officer at end halted the flank plays with a rush. Simpson 1-1—Parsons 14. In the feature game of the season, these two teams met in a bitter contest. The game was staged before a homecoming crowd at Fairfield. Greatly handicapped by the loss of Sutton. Toom, and Barney McCoy, the team fought an uphill battle and foiled Parsons in her attempt to put us out of the conference running. Simpson’s end run threat was wrecked when McCoy was taken out of the game in the first quarter because of an injury to the head. Page 82 Brainhnll, Iiollnday Johnson, Woolson Thereafter Simpson was compelled to depend almost entirely on line plunges, with Mercer bearing the brunt of the offense following in tin holes left in the Parsons line by the plowing Simpson linesmen. Mercer proved himself to 1m a powerful line plunger, making thirteen consecutive gains through Parsons’ strong line for a touchdown. It would be hard to pick many individual stars, as the whole team worked together as one fighting unit and all starred: but Officer of Simpson deserves especial mention for it was in this game he proved himself a great end. McCarthy, our smallest man. held his own with the opponents and made a name for himself as a scrappy little football player. Simpson 17 Des Moines Pniversity fi. This game featured the joint home- coming of Simpson and Des Moines Pniversity. A huge crowd gathered on the Des Moines field to see the teams battle. The game was partially slowed by a muddy field which checked the offensive ability of both teams. But Simpson again proved too much for her foe and passed one more milestone on her way to the conference championship. The Des Moines score was made in the fourth quarter when a series of passes carried the ball over. Simpson 6—Nebraska Wesleyan 0. Handicapped by a long trip and the fact that it was Simpson’s third hard game in ten days. Noel Workman’s wrecking crew again brought home the honors, this time from a team outside of the State. A stiff gale swept over the field the first period and the combat during that time was largely a punting duel with the wind playing a large factor. In the third quarter. Simpson carried the ball to the Wesleyan ten-yard line after the wind had taken a Wesleyan punt out of bounds on their twenty-five yard line. Mercer then dropped back and place kicked, scoring three points. Again in the fourth quarter, Simpson unleashed a passing attack which spoiled any chances of Wes- leyan’s scoring and carried the ball to the fifteen-yard line where “Moco” again repeated. The game was played in the huge Nebraska University Stadium and was witnessed by about four thousand people. Page SS Moore. Toon Hnlden. Baldwin Simpson 50—Luther 6. Simpson clearly outclassed Luther and piled up a 50 to 6 victory over the Luther team. The game was full of sensational runs by Barney. Luther was unable to stop the powerful Simpson offense and the latter had rather easy going during most of the game. Luther’s lone touchdown came in the fourth quarter as a result of a blocked punt which Luther recovered on Simpson’s one-yard line and in the next play scored a touchdown. Coach Work- man entered the entire second team near tin elose of the fourth quarter. During this contest Mercer played his usual stellar game and Ilalden proved a bulwark on defense. Captain Karr piloted tin team in good shape and the large score was largely the result of his generalship. In the line Holladay. Moore. Woolson. and Officer showed up well. Simpson 29—1’pper Iowa 0. The team journeyed to Fayette and on Thanks- giving Day defeated I’pper Iowa in the final game of the season. It was an interesting game, full of battle, but the Peacocks were unable to score on the Simpson crew. The team played without the aid of Captain Karr who was out until the last three minutes because of an injury received in the Luther game. 11 is place was filled by “Chick” McCoy, a Freshman, who guided the team as a veteran. Holladay developed into a rollicking pill-carrier, racing fifty yards for a touchdown upon recovering an I’pper Iowa fumble. Ilalden was a big feature of the backfield, not only on tin defensive but on the offensive, scoring his first touchdown.

McCoy, Woolsoi . Karr The first game was with Graceland and was played mainly as a practice game, Simpson win- ning easily by the score of 34 to 15. It was a loosely played game showing erratic playing by both sides. However, the Simpson team displayed signs of developing and of getting together as a team. Simpson next tackled the Central College quintet on the home floor. They clearly outclassed Central in every department of the game and handed them a 4(5 to 20 defeat. When the Simpson squad journeyed to Central for the next game it was a slightly different story from that of the home game with Central. The Pella quintet showed extraordinary scrap and uncanny ability to hit the basket. Simpson next met the Parsons team which they defeated 22 to 20 in an exciting game. This game with last year's conference champions was the first good game on the local floor. The team showed excellent team work and shooting ability. The Simpson team played best in the first half and held a comfortable lead at the end of the half. However, in the last half Parsons played a better brand of ball and near the close of the game Parsons drew up and nearly tied the score by substituting some long shot artists who succeeded in «-aging two or three uncanny baskets. The next game was with Dos Moines which was played in the Coliseum in Des Moines. It was a hard-fought game, the score being close throughout. The Des Moines team seemed to have a better eye for the basket and had exceptionally goo«l floor work while Simpson put up a stellar defense that was an outstanding feature of tin game. Simpson next tackled Penn at Oskaloosa in a game which proved a “nip and tuck affair in the first half with Penn leading by a two-point margin at the end of the half. However, in the last half Simpson seemed to solve Penn's defense and at the same time did some excellent guarding, holding Penn scoreless while they piled up a safe lead themselves. The next competition for the local team came from St. Ambrose when the team journeyed to Davenport and played a fast game with the Catholics, losing bv but one lone basket. The score was undecided until the last minute of the game when St. Ambrose nosed out victorious. When Simpson played Parsons the return game at Fairfield it was quite different from the game with Parsons earlier in the season. Parsons had been priming all season for this game and they were certainly prepared for Simpson. Sec Taylor, critic, said. “Parsons played one of the best games I have ever seen.” They were able to cage goals from any place on the floor. Simpson fought hard but was completely outclassed. P ne S7 Fislicr, Gnrbctt, Siphcrd From Fairfield tin team journeyed to Galesburg, 111., and played Lombard (College. The Simpson team played a good game but Lombard had one of the best teams that Simpson met all season and won the game 37 to 29. The first half Simpson had the better of their oppo- nents and were leading by a good margin at the end of the half. In the second half Lombard came back with an astonishing burst of speed and had soon tied the score. Then the battle was on, each team fighting for the lead; but the score remained about even up to the last few minutes of the game. Then Lombard reeled off about four baskets in rapid lire succession and cinched the game. The next trip took Simpson to Cedar Falls where they met the leaders of the conference. The Simpson team showed flashes of speed that looked like a win only to slow up and let the Teachers forge ahead ami annex a 26 to 16 victory. The next game was at Fayette with Upper Iowa which was the most disappointing game of the season. An extra-period was necessary to decide the game in which Upper Iowa ran wild and dropped in the necessary winning baskets. The Upper Iowa game ended the games away from home and after losing five conference games away on trips the boys came home determined to finish tin season up right ami win the remainder of the games which were on the home floor. Des Moines came down to Ind'anola quite confident of their power to hand us another defeat but Simpson turned the tables on them and handed them a 2i to 21 defeat. Simpson next played Kllsworth in a loosely played game which was not difficult to win. The local quintet completely outclassed the Kllsworth team in every way. The close guarding of the Simpson team was excellent and held the opponents to a small score of 29 to 14. State Teachers next invaded Simpson with a clear record. They had a wonderful aggrega- tion with complete confidence of a victory. This was the best game of the season for Simpson and they came through with a victory. The boys played excellent ball both on offense and defense, outclassing the highly “Tilted' tutors although the score was very close throughout. Upper Iowa played their return game on the local floor next and were not hard to down as they lacked that uncanny ability to cage baskets as in the first game. The last game was with Penn at Indianola. Simpson easily won the contest. Penn was un- able to penetrate Simpson's powerful defense while Simpson did not have much difficulty in caging baskets. Inability to wore easy shots was the only reason the score was not higher. Pane 88 SUMMARY OF TRACK SEASON Track season opened up with a dual meet with Graccland on April 19. Simpson easily won the con- tost. piling up an 8)1 to 25 score on the Mormons. While no great stress is laid on this victory it showed up tin possibilities of the Simpson men. It showed that Simpson had a strong: and well balanced team. The team placed first in all the events except the shot put. On April 25, Simpson sent teams to the Drake Re- lays to compete in the one-half mile. mile, and two mile relays. The mile relay team composed of McCoy, Prugh. Mahr. and Weidman won the special Iowa Conference mile relay, setting a new record of 3:35 4-10. The next meet was the Little Four Meet on May 3, which Simpson won easily. The scores were: Simpson 70. Penn 42. Iowa Wesleyan 25. and Parsons 7. Bates was high point man. winning two first places and a third. In the Iowa Conference Meet at Des Moines the Simpson team emerged with second place, making a total of 28 points, while Des Moines 1'niversity won the meet by garnering 78 points. The Simpson men gave a very commendable showing of themselves and the Des Moines team was not able to take the meet without putting forth their best efforts. Girard of Simpson broke the conference record in the discus throw, hurling it 124 feet and 9 inches. The annual State Track Meet was held at Ames, Saturday. May 17th. and Simpson men participating certainly performed creditably. Weidman won the half mile run over a classy field, his time being two and nine-tenths. Wilkinson tied for second place in the pole vault while Kingerv took second place in the high jump. The season ended as a success and the track squad are to be commended for their fine work and the fine showing thev made. Captain Sayrk VARSITY TRACK SQCAI) Hockey (Manager). Wilkinson, (iirarcl.

This year our college repeated and tilled the gaps made by the graduation of Meek and Schultz by two other men of all-state ability. HoDaday is but a Sophomore while “Barney” McCoy gradu- ates this spring. Mercer deserves especial mention as a great football player for during the 1924 season he won his berth on the all-state team for the second time, received honorable mention for Kcker- sall’s All-Western team in recognition of his ability, and held second place in the entire coun- try for scoring honors, making an even hundred points in nine games. The following men were mentioned on the all-state Honor Roll: Karr, Woolson, Toom. and Ofliccr. The following men were on the all-conference teams: first team, Mercer, McCoy, Ilolladay, Officer; second team, Baldwin and Toom; Honor Roll, Karr, Ilalden, Woolson. Mercer and Karr were mentioned by Walter Eekcrsall for a 11-Western eleven. Page 93 Captain Toom WRESTLING Three meets were scheduled this year. About sixteen or seventeen men reported to Coach Kunze for practice and out of this number eight were se- lected to comprise the squad. The first contest was with Des Moines University at Des Moines which Simpson lost 1 ( to 7. Bingaman won his match by a fall in a little over a minute and McCarthy took a time decision from his opponent. State Teachers met Simpson on the home mat and won by a struggle, 11 to i). llansell and Ilolla- day won by time decisions while Bingaman threw his man in the feature match of the evening. In the final contest Simpson won from Parsons on their mat. l!f to 5. Salamone. llansell, and IIol- laday won falls while Krieder and McCarthy took time decisions. Captain Toom and his man wres- tled to a draw. The only points made by Parsons were secured through a forfeit, Burham being forced to give up because of a bad injury. Letter men this year are Salamone, llansell, Bingaman. McCarthy, Krieder, llolladay. and Toom. WRKSTLING SQUAD Page 9 TENNIS TEAM TEX MS The Simpson net team got into action April 19 by winning a match from Grace land 2 1. On April 25th. an Ames team consisting of Young and Paige, the latter being State Champion, invaded Simpson and defeated the local team. Karr and Sipherd lost their doubles to the Ames team and Kay dropped a singles match to Young. The feature match was between Paige and Sipherd, the latter being defeated only after he had forced tin champion to his best. Grinnell was tin next match which was held at Grinnell. May 9th, which Grinnell won, taking live out of six matches. The same week the team went to Des Moines and helped to even up their showing at Grinnell by de- feating Des Moines 1’niversity team 3-2. Sipherd and Kay both won their singles over the Tiger men and Karr and Sipherd won in a doubles match: Watson lost a close singles match. Simpson next tackled the fast Drake team, first playing in a meet at Des Moines and losing a fast meet. Later in the week tin Drake scpiad played on the Indianola courts and again the Bulldogs were victorious by a score of 4-2. The final competition came from Parsons in which the Simpson team swamped the Wildcats by winning every match of the meet. The following men received letters for their work: Sipherd (Captain), Karr. Savre, McGee, and Kay. m - 5 N Captain Siphkrd Page 95 INTRA MTRAL A new type of athletic competition which has attracted a great deal of interest lias been the various forms of intramurals which have been introduced by Coach Workman. They afford a means for everyone in the school to participate in some form of athletic competition to which he is best adapted. Every one is not privileged to make the varsity teams in the various sports and there are many who are not so privileged to make the teams who desire to take part in athletics. Intramural sports is the solution to the problem. It not only affords the desired athletics for the participants but also a great deal of interest to the fans. Some athlete may in this way attract attention by his ability and thus make the varsity team. It helps to develop not only athletes but athletics. Intramural sports are now introduced at Simpson and it is tip to everyone to back them and boost them as they are very helpful to all athletic activities of the school. BASK.

The history of the fraternal groups dates back to the ancient Greeks who, particularly after they had gained supremacy as the most cultured and civilized people of the then known world, separated into cliques of the varying philosophies. These cliques were known as brotherhoods or in the language of the nation, “Fraternities., Soon the rivalry between groups increased and it was necessary to hold many of their meetings in secret. In colleges and universities, men joined by common interests banded into societies. Later some of these societies, possibly copying from the Masonic order and the ancient Grecian cliques, adopted secret initiation rituals.' In the United States, the first secret society was called the “Flat Hat Society.” It was organized at William and Mary College at Williamsburg, Ya., in the year of 1750. The first society to adopt a Greek letter name was Phi Beta Kappa which was founded some twenty-six years later as both a literary and social society. The national sorority system, inaugurated in 1870 with the foundation of Kappa Alpha Theta, has had a large growth similar to the men’s fraternity system. It was during the period of the fraternity expansion that Simpson College was founded in 1860. It was then known as the Indianola Male and Female Seminary which name was changed in 1884 to the present form. The first national fraternity to come to Simpson was the Delta Tau Delta, the local chap- ter being founded in 1873 and known as the Xi chapter. For a period of nine years this organization enjoyed the distinction of being the only national men's fraternity on the campus. However, in 1882, 1885, 1889, were established the Iowa Delta of Phi Kappa Psi, Iowa Beta Alpha of Alpha Tau Omega, and Iowa Sigma of Sigma Alpha Epsilon. During this period the women were not idle. Two local sisterhoods had for some time existed but not as Greek letter organizations. In 1874, however, the I. C. Club was granted a charter as the Iowa Beta of Pi Beta Phi. In 1889 the L. F. V. Club became the Delta Deutcron of Delta Delta Delta. To-day we still have these two chapters with us on Simpson’s campus. Kappa Alpha Theta. Theta Chapter, and Kappa Kappa Gamma, Omicron Chapter, were found- ed here in 1879 and 1880 respectively. These two sororities passed from the campus some years later as it was felt there were not enough women here to support four sororities. About 1890 the Phi Kappa Psi left the school and a few years later the Alpha Tau Omega voluntarily disbanded. The Sigma Alpha Epsilon had its charter stolen and the Delta Tau Delta also disbanded. Barb sentiment was unusually strong and it was felt that fraternities were not needed on Simpson campus. So in the years between 1S96 and 1902 there were no men’s fraternities in Simpson, the only survivors of the Greek world being the sororities of Pi Beta Phi and Delta Delta Delta. Again in the year of 1902, a group of men formed a local society called Kappa Theta Psi which is a strong fraternity on the campus to-day. In 1903, the local. Alpha Iota Phi, was organized and two years later was granted a charter in Alpha Tau Omega as a revival of the old Iowa Beta Alpha chapter established in 1885. Since the revival of fraternity spirit many more have grown into existence on the campus. The increasing membership of the collegiate department has made it possible for the college to hold more fraternities and sororities. In 1907 the Alpha Chi Omega sorority came to Simpson as the Mu chapter. Not until November, 1922, did another sorority join the ranks. This was a local. Beta Xi, which this year was absorbed into the national of Theta Upsilon. Zeta Tau Delta is to-day the youngest of the Greek world on the campus, being founded as a local in January of 1925. Among the men’s social fraternities only one. the Sigma Delta Chi, has come to the campus. This local was established in 1920 and in the fall of 1924 joined the fraternity world’s young- est national, and became the Iowa Beta Chapter of Theta Kappa Xu. At present there are eight Greek letter social organizations on the campus and five honorary fraternities. These honorary societies are Pi Kappa Delta, forensics; Phi Mu Alpha and Mu Phi Epsilon, music; Epsilon Sigma, scholarship; and Sigma Tau Delta. English.

Chisholm Walter lyfcCoi Page 162 Page 163 INDIANOLA Thus far throughout the Zenith, Simpson lias been emphasized to the exclu- sion of all else. But here we wish to pause a moment to give a thought to the city in which Simpson College is located. It is an ideal college town. The population numbers about 5000. exclusive of the college students. Among these 5000, we find the majority are boosters of Simpson in every way. The townspeople cooperate not only indirectly by giving to the college their moral support but also directly by each year throwing their homes open to new and old students alike, giving them encouragement in their school work and a love for the city in which they must make their abode for nine months of the year. The merchants of the community are very loyal to Simpson. Down-town stores give every opportunity for students to earn part of their expenses for school. In all student activities and college enterprises, Simpson can always rest assured that she will be supported. The Zenith Staff is indeed grateful to the people of Indianola for their sup- port of our efforts to produce a book worthy of the Simpson of to-day. Through their personal interest and the liberal advertising of the Indianola merchants the 1926 Zenith has been greatly and materially aided in whatever success it may have. For this cooperation we wish to express our gratitude and appreciation.

The peculiar part of the situation is that campus-cutters who wish to be human take the signs literally, and although they do not keep all the grass off the campus, they succeed especially well in keeping it off such hypotbonuses as from the Central Building to the alley near- est town, and from the Conservatory to the Chapel. Synonyms are often used in place of “campus-cutters,” as disloyal, non- cooperative, untraditional, and disobedient. WHEN YOU THINK OF TIRES THINK OF HARTZLER Page 167 C. W.

Page 197 Rome Wasn’t Built in a Day MASTER PRINTERS of the olden day strove to excel in the quality of their work. They looked upon the printing profes- sion as an art and lost sight of the commercial aspect of the business. This practice prevailed until about the middle of the past century, at which time the commercial idea almost obliterated the ar- tistic and the quality of printing deteriorated to an alarming extent. Many printers today do not see in to appreci- ate that quality is an essential in the establish- ment of a good printing business. The public is largely to blame for this situation. Often it is the matter of a few cents or a few dollars, according to the size of the con- tract. that determines who will do the work. A firm with a reputation for quality receives no more consideration than one that cares but little for the appearance of the work they turn out. Our policy is to give every piece of work the care which it merits. If it Ik a College Annual such thought and atten- tion is given ax is neces- sary to produce a book that will look well and wear well. A blank form gets the considera- tion that it should to be m' service to the user. And so with every kind of work—each class re- ceives the proper atten- tion to make it attractive and useful. Whatever your needs you will ren- der yourself a service if you turn your printing over to us. Illlllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll Cli EITHER IS ANYTHING J l of any magnitude or impor- tance so built. It has taken two decades of continuous effort to rear our business to its present size and standing. C. Years of experience in the making of college and school annuals in a pleasing and attractive style, at a cost within the reach of any school, has en- titled us to be classed as Master Annual Builders There is a sense of satisfaction in turning your annual over to a concern in which you can have absolute faith. The knowl- edge that the printing and binding will go along right without any worry or anxiety on your part enables you to give your time and concentrate your efforts on as- sembling the copy, arranging sales cam- paigns, and other details of importance. GENERAL PRINTING Dependability jj THE ECONOMY ADVERTISING CO. laiimminniiimnminmiif IOWA CITY. IOWA Page 198 THE INSIDE TRACK After reading the copy for this 1926 Zenith. I feel conscientiously compelled to till these two pages with real “inside dope ’ of the Simpson campus gathered from observation of four long years of student life here. Now—understand, I'm no Zenith knocker. I wouldn’t admit it if 1 was for I think that all the brains of the Zenith knockers could be stored in a hazelnut shell with enough room left to hold Walter Bramhall’s shoes. These fellows who constantly run over the campus knocking everything at Simpson are usually baldheaded on the inside. I think the class of ’26 made a mistake in picking the Zenith staff this year but as Proxy says. “It’s the best that could be done out of that class.’’ The editor is the bunk, always giving chapel speeches and getting the worst of it when his competitors and professors speak in rebuttal. He is also a member of the “1“ club which I shall mention later. Hockey, the business manager, would be ). K. if he carried more under his hat, but you can't expect much of a poor fellow when working with such an editor. The rest of the staff are not even strong enough to lean upon. One of them ran off and got married ami the rest, including Hugh Tudor, sjiend their time at something else. How the ZENITH was ever published is a mystery to me. I guess Miss Stahl must have done the work. 'Twould be a sad misfortune were we to omit the campus organizations from our censure as all other ZENITH critics have done. Now, I may display signs of owning the campus but don’t mistake me for an A. T. O. They live in the “big white house by the side of the road and are a friend to man. Their password is “All Tired Out and their emblem will greed you on the walls of any Epworth League room in the country. Their motto—“In God we trust; all others must pay cash.5’ Flower, “Dandy Lion. To Ik' eligible to pledgeship, one must be so athletically inclined that In can lift a dumbbell with one hand. Oath is “ I swear. The Kappa Theta Psi fraternity never pledged me yet. I have hopes though, for I can blow a horn. They do have fairly high ideals, their motto being “Follow the Leicht (light).’’ Their emblem is that the diamond pleases as well as a ring. Password is “Hones. I watched them initiate once. After a game of tiddeldy-winks, the pledges went sent to the Rock Island tracks to box the engine’s ears. The formal ceremony lasted until the cock crew when the neophyte placed his left foot upon his brow and swore the following oath. “By Maggie! ’’ The Theta Kappa Xu’s never pledged me either and I don't know why. I pitch a mean game of horseshoe and sling hash admirably well too. Their motto seems to le “Pleasure first, eampused afterwards.’’ Most of them are charter members of the four weeks club. The Gamma Kappa Delta is a new bunch on the campus. They wanted to pledge me but I wouldn’t join up. They may amount to something some day. but I’m waiting to see. There are sororities on the campus too. Five of them. I used to have a girl in the Alpha Chi sorority but this year they adopted the motto “57 varieties’’ and lieing an opponent of Heinz. I quit her. Their emblem is a jewel crowning a “liar while the flower is a wall flower. My girl told me some of the initiatory rites. Fighteen pledges are required. Musical noise bv zoological creatures furnished the accompaniment for the quadruped parade. After vainly Ashing from the topmost pinnacle of their porch, all members join in singing, “Count yonr many sisters, name them one by one.” Their oath seems to be “a true lyre,. I’ll swear to be.” And they are very loyal. The Theta Upsilons possess no liking for me and vice versa. They live up on North Buxton and lead one to believe they have possibilities. No, the Hook Store isn’t their home. Donald Ross lives there—i. e.. at the Theta Upsi Ion house. The Tri Delts never wanted me to call for they had no door Ir'II. They’ve installed a knocker now. In their initiation ceremony, they gaze at the moonshine till they see stars. Vatje 199 All associations with I. W. V. (I want to waltz) Fraternity must lie broken. Pledges must walk upstairs backwards pushed by King Neptune with his fork. Here they are introduced to the mysteries of the hooded sisters. The Pi Phi's need no mention. They mention themselves often although. I know from a friend that they don't own rights to free passage over all of Buxton Park and Simpson campus. Their motto is. “People who live in Ease (E’s) should not make eyes (I’s).” The emblem—the piercing dart points to the bleeding heart. The initiation consists of climbing Olympic peaks all the while singing “ 1 love me truly.” They ceremonize by sipping spaghetti through a funnel and flee at the peal of the Adam's Apple. The Zeta Tail Belts invited me to their Gypsy party but, as is my custom. I refused to go. Their motto is “New but true” with an emblem of hearts on the surface. Password is “Potato, Potato.” Initiation—After heroically surviving Mary Berry Hall spinach for an indefinite period, candidates are eligible to enter the inner shrine where they are embraced by the bony skeleton. This ends the list of so-called Greeks. The rest of the organizations are barbs—wild men and women. There is the “1” club. Nearly everyone on the campus belongs to this. Their motto is, “I often tell myself that there may be a great deal hidden beneath the surface that other folks are not apt to give me credit for.” The “S” club is different. The guys who can play bawl get in it. The Commons Club, both sexes, claims to be immune from all Greeks. The student volunteer band toots its own horn and the Oxford Club speaks for itself. This about completes the list except the K. Y. B. O. (Kitchen Yowling Baboons Outfit). This is'an honorary food fraternity. Hash stingers and Coach Workman belong. The Phi Mus were honorary once but lost all of their honor when they kicked out eight good pledges. P. S.—They had eight to begin with. Nobody, not even I, knows what the trouble was. Well, folks, you know a lot more about the college than you did. If I can ever help you in deciding your children’s career, you’ll find my office near the Ad building. Anonymous.

In those brief sentences our purpose was set forth. Between that time and now we have been striving to accomplish that purpose. The annual for this year is completed. Whatever we might have done or could do in the future is of no avail. It is what we did do in these two hundred pages of Simpson chronicle that will recall to the reader the school year of 1924-25. To some, this volume means but “another Zenith” to lay on the dusty shelves of an already over- crowded attic; to others, it is the record of their first experiences at college and they will preserve it as such; to a few it rehearses cherished memories of their last year in old Simpson’s halls. But to us it has a deeper meaning than to any of the others. Although it is Simpson’s book we feel that in a measure it is peculiarly our book. Throughout all the year the Zenith was in the making which means that untiring effort was being exerted by someone to make that Zenith a success. We submit the book to your approval hoping that our efforts have accomplished in some degree a measure of success. Selfish it would be if we failed to express our thanks to our helpers. We do thank all who have contributed to our progress. We feel especially grateful to the staff for their cooperation in the actual making up of the book; to Miss Eva Stahl and her committee who read the proof of the pages; to Mr. Loren (■. Talbot of the alumni association and Mr. Paul Otto of the engraving company for their valuable aids and suggestions; to Mr. Mercer of the printing company; to the college faculty and students as individuals and as organizations, and to the citi- zens of Indianola. We wish also to thank Dr. Hillman, Simpson’s president, for the willing and helpful hand of cooperation he has given us in our work. As a final word of gratitude we wish to whole-heartedly thank Mr. Cecil Briggs, an Indianola young man and Senior in the college, for his exceptional art work which has added to the value of the book more than any other one feature of the annual. Without his personal interest and conscientious efforts we feel the Zenith could never have achieved what success may be accredited to it. With these last words we lay aside our working aids and close the pages of another Simpson Zenith. Roderick II. Chisholm, Editor. W. II. Rockey, Business Manager. Page 208 f
