Simpson College - Zenith Yearbook (Indianola, IA)

Text from Pages 1 - 210 of the 1951 volume:

Published by Simpson College, Indianola, Iowa WILLIAM PETERSON, Editor DAVID BUTLER, Business Manager FORWARD A flash of the camera and once more man had recorded an event on a roil of film; he had created an accurate and per- manent record of the scene portrayed be- fore him. With cameras, flashbulbs, film, paper and chemicals we have attempted to catch the events of the past year. However, these pictures can only be made in black and white. It is up to you, who use this book, to paint within the outlines of the pictures we have drawn the rich hues of memories of real life that seem alive to you. Look, then, through the lens of the ZENITH and you will see a picture of Simpson College DEDICATION This book is dedicated to freedom for all the world; to liberty for all; to those who have left Simpson to serve their country and to those who will leave to preserve the peace of the freedom-loving people on earth. May the United Nations work effectively to restore and maintain peace. May those who have sacri- ficed their lives, not have died in vain. We hope that the people of the world have learned a lesson from the wars, depressions suffer- ing and strife of the first half of the twentieth century and that the last half of this century may bring peace on earth. With the strength and help of God let us move forward to build a world of brotherhood and goodwill for all. n - f° a 2 CONTENTS COLLEGE LIFE Vi. dministered on the . . .

The Y.W.C.A. strives toward the development of the educational, service, social and spiritual aspects of the lives of Simpson College women. Through the four commissions—Campus Affairs, Religious Problems, Community Service, and International Relations—each girl has an opportunity for expression in the area In which she is most interested. Such events as the Freshman picnic, the Big-Little Sister Tea, the carnival, publishing of “Thoughts” (a devotional booklet during Lent), and the Spring Banquet, have made this year a busy, but enjoyable one for all of us. The cooperation and leadership of the Council have helped to make this a successful year. Those making up the Council are: Joyce Hawbaker, President; Coleen Daulton, Secretary; Emily Ann Jordan, Treasurer; Jo Anne Cox, Finance Chairman; Mary Lou Ogan, Reporter; Shirley C his man, Publicity Chairman; Miss Beryl Hoyt, Faculty Advisor.

Student Fellowship Student Fellowship is a non-denominational organization which endeavors to provide Simpson students with an activity corresponding to their church youth programs at home. Tbe group’s program centers around the Sunday evening meeting: they gather at the Parish Hall of the Methodist Church for supper at 5:00 P.M., after which they have a few moments of recreation. Then a worship service is held, followed by an address or a discussion, led by some person outstanding in the community in some particular field of study, or in religious activity. conference at S tS 0t year were Iowa Methodist Student Movement Emphasis Week during WCCh a number of the students attended; the Religious guTde ovC £2 15 Ck SCmester’ when v.

Snacks at the Wigwam Relax in the Union Lounge This was the third year on the Simpson Campus for Alpha PM Omega. The organization was founded for men formerly connected with the scouting movement in order to further the Mgh ideals of scouting. Since Alpha Phi Omega was started, 1, has done a score of services for the student body and can boast of an impressive ..eneH nf achievement. Alpha Phi Omega sponsored the barber shop quartette contest which was such a success, a ping pong tournament, and the campus March of Dimes. In addition, Alpha Phi Omega sold concessions during basketball games, and, as will be remembered, last year sponsored the drive to equip the new athletic field with the latest type score board.

You know I came to Simpson last fall as a freshman. We had loads of fun during freshman week, except for freshman exams; then rushing began. It was really hard at first to choose among the sororities, but when I visited the Alpha Chi house I knew it would be my choice. There were fourteen in my pledge class, but we added five more second semester. We had a great time, especially the time we kidnapped the pledge trainer! At home- coming week-end we worked and worked. Our house decorations were on a wedding theme and we took first place. And Katie Buxton was the Homecoming Princess! Santa Claus came a little early this year, when he took us with him to all the frat houses to deliver our Christmas party invitations. And the actives said our pledge skit at the alum party was one of the best. Semester exams were something new and different, but I managed to pull through. And nine Alpha Chi’s were on the honor roll, and were we proud when we received the grade cup for first semester! March was a busy month with Minnie Orph, and the All-College Sing. Mary M. and Katie B. were chosen representative women. Our spring formal came in April, and it was one of the most thrilling nights. Then on May 5 lots of alums from all over Iowa came down to Simpson for State Day. At last it was commencement, and much as we were glad to come home for the summer we hated to say goodbye to the seniors, Marj, Lee, Lou, Ogie, Mary M., Katie, Shirley, and Jeannette. Many honors have come our way. Lou and Jeanette were elected to Who’s Who and Pi Gamma Mu. Four girls were class officers. Nine Chi’s were in choir, five in Mu Phi, one in Alpha Psi, and two in Sigma Tau Delta. We held offices in Y.W.C.A., W.R.A., Home Ec. Club, Student Union Board and Panhellenic. As you can see, Janie, we have had a wonderful year. And you must come down to Simpson next year. It’s lots of fun and lots of work, but there’s nothing like it. I know you’ll just love college, especially Simpson! Love, Bunny “Paddle-packin' Mama “Darktown Poker Club First Row, Left to Right: Moore, Larkin, Sprague, Main, McClintock, LaPlant.

In September Mother Blake welcomed us to our redecorated house (thanks to the alums). Following the pledging of nine wonderful girls—Jane, Beulah, Shirley, Barb, Marilyn, Ruth, Pat, Becky and Roselea—initiation was held for Burni, Dilly, Phyl S., Nancy B., Jean, Mary Jo and Boots. During a busy homecoming week-end we helped Simpson “spin” its way to victory. Our Christmas party (with stockings hung by the chimney with care) was Jolly. We were proud of our new pledges - Nancy S., Betty, Phyl H., Lillian, Norma, Sue and Marj. The paddle party, active hunt, flowers, movies and dinner at Rocky's were all part of “Ideal Week”, which was climaxed by the initiation of eight, and the affiliation of May. One of the most unforgettable functions of the year was our annual Valentine Party. We “heartily” agreed with the chaperons who chose Ted and Aggie as our King and Queen of Hearts. In fact, Cupid was busy all year, for Joy, Del, Phyl H. and Shirley became pinned, Margwas married and Mo and Lootz flashed diamonds. Shirley was Alpha Tau Omega Sweetheart and Phyl S. a member of the Court of Beauty. The Hotel Kirkwood was the scene of our Spring formal. We hated to lose Phyl.

It was so nice to have the girls back at the house. During the first few weeks, I didn’t get much attention because the girls were so busy cleaning the house and getting ready to start to classes. I really liked Mother Crosswait, who was the new Housemother. Before long Donna B. started coming to the house to play with me. The big event in October was when our National President, Mrs. Fuller, spent a few days with the girls. The time Just flew—Thanksgiving came and went and then the Christmas party that the Mothers’ Club had for them. I climbed up on the table and sampled some of the candy, but everyone was rather unhappy about it. I was glad to see that Zona L. and Barb C. were going to be around from then on. Then in January everyone left me all alone one night and went to the Founders’ Day Dinner in Des Moines. I heard the girls talking about their Sweater Swing. With all that music and dancing I Just couldn’t go to sleep. It seems like lots of things happened after that. There was Minnie Orph, the Beauty Ball, and more parties. In April the big day was Theta U State Day which was held at the house. Near the end of the year the girls began to talk about Family Day which was go- ing to be on June 3rd. Now it seems that all the girls are leaving for the summer and they really seem to be excited about it. I heard Haxelle, Marilyn, Marcene, and Marge say that they wouldn’t be back next year. May be one of the girls will take me home with her and then I can come back next fall for all the fun. Oh, pardon me. I forgot to introduce myself. I’m Mekatina, the kitten that lives at the Theta U.

The house at 800 North Buxton buzzed with activity as the brothers of Alpha Tau Omega unpacked their suitcases and looked forward to another eventful year. With the gridiron season opening, Alpha Tau Omega was well represented; those winning letters were A1 Perrier, Elwood Thomas. A1 Benson, Norm Miller, Dick Kintner, Dave Englund, Merritt Daulton and pledge Ben Henry. Tackling the homecoming events by both legs, we won first place in the float division, and second in the house decorations, and we were awarded the sacred tomahawk representing the spirit of Simpson. Our intramural football and basketball teams defeated all opposition and won both the intrafraternity and the all-college trophies. In the limelight of our winter social activities was our formal dinner-dance, which was held at the Savory Hotel Ballroom in Des Moines. This season also marked our second consecutive year we have staged a Christmas party for underpriviledged children. With the draft boards hot on our heels, A1 Perrier, Bill Metcalf, Charles Linn, Wayne Dunlap, Jack Iske, Merritt Daulton, Patrick Shannon, and Thomas McCready left for military service during the Christmas holidays. On April 1st, Bill Peterson, Skip Richey, BobStarrett, Elwood Thomas, Bob Crawford, Dave Scott, and Jesse Knight were inducted into Federal Service with the Air National Guard. The pledges presented our annual spring party dance called the “Tau Thaw”. Our Miniature Orpheum version of the army induction physical, featuring A1 Benson and Dick Smith was a smash hit. Bill Peterson was elected as Representative man and Dave Scott selected to Who’s Who in American Colleges and Universities. Our annual spring formal-dance was held in Des Moines. After final tests we are all looking forward to a restful summer in some army camp and will be keeping an eye on the future success of Beta Alpha Chapter of Alpha Tau Omega. nt Row.

With G. M. Parsons we started out with 17 actives and 7 pledges. Twenty-four of our actives graduated last year. Naturally the war in Korea was weighing heavily on our minds as the year started. Kappas, as usual, were mainstays on Coach Miller’s football team. Jack Blazek and Ev Hidlebaugh played tackle and guard respectively on the first team. Ron Littijohan and Court Hooton saw considerable action also in the line. All four were letter winners. The backfield was many times all Kappa. Larry Parr, four year letterman at quarterback; all round athlete Jim Mathew at fullback; extra- point specialist Rog Hollen at half, and hard running “Choo Choo” Justice at half. Both Parr and Hidlebaugh made Iowa All-conference. Kappas filled many top positions on the campus. Larry Parr was president of “S” Club; Gene Rosendahl, president of the senior class; Tom Luksetich, editor of the Simpsonian. Founders day last fall brought many of our alums back to the house of Kappa Theta Psi. Our T. V. set arrived at this time and has been well worth the investment. Basketball got underway in November and the Kappas were well represented. Jim Mathew, Ed Weeks, Ove Strandskov and Cliff Teale saw considerable first team action. Weeks at forward and Mathew at guard were a one-two scoring punch. Rog Fisher was also on the Varsity squad. About this time some of the Kappa's finest men enlisted in the armed forces. Parsons, Hollen, Hidlebaugh and Blazek. This was due to the seriousness of the world situation. Kappa Theta Psi carried on. Our pledge class at the second semester brought to us many top men. Our intramural “A” team won the all-college elimination tourney. The spring formal was next. A dinner dance was held at the Hotel Savory in Des Moines and will be remembered as one of the finest ever held. At graduation five Kappas received diplomas.

Lambda Chi settled down to the college year events. A television set from which many enjoyable hours were to be derived, was installed immediately before the World Series. Eighteen men became actives shortly after the semester began. Morris Beck was called into the service in October and A1 Messenger replaced him as vice- president. We won the interfraternity grade award for the fourth consecutive semester. The local chapter completed a successful touch football season, winning three and losing one and finishing in a second place tie in league play. Homecoming was the next major event of the school year. Lambda Chi captured top honors in the men’s house decorations competition. Our huge Indian pushing a lawn- mower which decapitated the homecoming football opponents, symbolized the beating the Redmen handed Dubuque. Lambda Chi was well-represented on Coach Casey’s basketball squad. Brothers Woodcock, eleven, Kerr, Doran, Boose, and Reed were all varsity members. Charlie Kerr, first string center, left at mid-year for the Navy. Intramural basketball found both Green and Gold teams in the thick of the title race. Both “A” and “B” squads were runners-up in their respective leagues, losing just one game apiece. Lambda Chi Alpha again repeated as the fraternity with the highest grade-point average at mid-year. Twenty-five new men entered our fold as pledges at the beginning of the second semester and six new actives wore the Crescent for the first time in February. Thus, with the school year nearly completed, we feel as though it has been success- ful, and we can look toward the future with high aspirations.

We were national now, and we all had great anticipation for a prosperous year. There was a good deal of work to be done so we all got started as soon as possible. Before long we had the chapter house in operation getting ready for the many activities which would be at hand in the coming fraternity year. It wasn't long after classes started that Homecoming was upon us and that meant a lot of work, but we all participated in the various duties that had to be performed. We didn't win anything, but all in all the week end was successful for every one concerned. Later on in the year we visited the Drake chapter for a district conclave with chapters from Iowa State, Columbia, Missouri, and Lincoln, Nebraska, being present. We all enjoyed the weekend very much because it gave us an excellent opportunity to get better acquainted and hash out a few things. Good pointers on fraternity life and operation were presented by all chapters present. As the year progressed we found that some of our members were going into the service by their own choice or by the request of Uncle Sam. Now they are scattered throughout the country from coast to coast. A couple of our members decided to go south for the winter and are now in Tallahassee, Florida. They are affiliated with the Pi Kappa Phi chapter down there. We suppose they are majoring in swimming and fishing. Various social functions were held during the year including the Lumberjack Frolic. Everyone attending seemed to have an enjoyable time. April 6th represented an evening of social entertainment. We got together with the Drake chapter and held our annual Rose Ball, which was a great success and everyone present had a pleasurable time. As the year drew to a close, we could look back with satisfaction upon a year well spent. There were a few obstacles and hurdles that had to be cleared, but we made it.

In an election held last spring, Nancy Butler was elected president of the council, and she worked under the supervision of Dean White. This year it was decided that minor problems and affairs of the dormitories might be handled more effectively if the girls’ council from each dormitory (and the housemothers) would take care of their own difficulties, and so they formed house councils with Mother Benson and Mother Pringle working with the girls in the Women’s Dormitory and Mother Montgomery working with those in Mary Berry. Dean White met with both groups. The council sponsored the Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners at Mary Berry Dining Hall. Also they were in charge of a Christmas party held at Mary Berry Lounge Just before Christmas vacation. The girls in the new dormitory gave a tea for the girls in Mary Berry for they had won the grade cup. The last two functions sponsored were for the faculty in the new dormitory and a picnic given by Mary Berry. We feel we have had a very successful year. The Panhellenic Council, composed of two members from each sorority, exercises executive. Judicial and legislative powers pertaining to all sorority matters. The Council entertains all new women on the campus at a tea in the fall; entertains members of the sororities at a coffee hour in the spring; presents a scholarship trophy; sponsors exchange dinners among the sororities; and has organized a loan fund for all girls wishing small loans. Officers for the Panhellenic Council during the past year were Irma Lou Hamilton, president; Hazelle Hickman, secretary and treasurer.

The Council, which began in the school year of 1927-28, has for its goal the good will, unity, understanding, and strengthening of the fraternities. This is accomplished through the Council's monthly meetings and probably best of all through the annual Interfraternity Ball. In addition the Council works with the school to establish greater cooperation among fraternities and between fraternities and the school. The Council also sponsors a scholarship trophy to the fraternity each semester with the highest grade average. The officers, who rotate to a different organization each year, were: John Demaris, president for the first semester; Bud Dettman, second semester president; Tom Poster, secretary. wed ATHLETICS football Qveuoo, |Wf5LEy Front Row, Left to Right: Parr, Kuhns, Daulton, Rasmussen, Butterfield Johnson, Henry, Englund, Mathew, Rhoads, Williams, Coltong, Cook, Justice, Mahoney, Ullested.

(Hap) Miller provided the fans with many thrills and exhibitions of good, clean football. The Redmen ended the season with a record of three wins and six losses for all games, and with a record of one win and four losses in conference play. This is not as good as last year’s conference champ’s record but the Redmen were confronted with a very tough schedule and injuries to key men in the latter part of the season hurt Simpson’s chances considerably. This year’s squad was a well rounded team, but bad breaks and lack of reserves denied Simpson a victorious season. Parr and Norris take out interference. THIRD LOSS TO WESLEYAN, 12-0. The Redmen dropped their third straight game and second conference game of the season to the Iowa Wesleyan Tigers at Mt. Pleasant by the score of 12-0. Wesleyan scored twice on pass plays of 49 to 34 yards. Four times Simpson was stalled within the Iowa Wesleyan 10 yard line but couldn’t cash in. AVENGE ONLY '49 DEFEAT, 7-0. The Simpson Redmen avenged their only defeat of the 1949 season by defeating Coe 7-0 here at Indianola. It was a hard fought contest all the way with the winning touchdown scored with only four minutes remaining. Jim Mathews plunged for the T. D. and Hollen converted. Ironically, this was the only defeat for the Kohawks this year, while their victory over the Redmen last year was . Simpson’s only loss. Nice Block that takes the player out of the play. f„vy With some helpful block- ing, Ed Weeks picks up yard- age against Dubuque. Miller Brothers get tough as Parr plows for a few more yards. SIMPSON DUMPS MACALESTER, 20-6 The Simpson Redmen opened the 1950 football season with a 20-6 win over Macalester. Macalester scored first after only two minutes of play. Simpson came back when Parr scored from the one. In the second quarter Ed Weeks scooted seven yards and the Redmen were ahead 14-6. The final score came on Blaxek’s interception of a pass and scampering 45 yards. SIMPSON HALTED 19-14. A winning streak carried over from last year was snapped at seven straight as Knox defeated Simpson 19-14. Not until the fourth quarter did the Redmen come to life. Mathew scored first for Simpson from the four. Parr tallied the final touchdown on a plunge. Roger Hollen drop-kicked both extra points. FAVORED BEES BARELY ESCAPE REDMEN Simpson opened its defense of the conference crown with a 14-6 loss to St. Ambrose. This was a terrific ball game from every standpoint, and with a break the Redmen could have left the field victorious. Parr scored Simpson’s only tally on a short plunge through the line. Jim Mathew is smoth- ered as he tries to find an opening. HOMECOMING VICTORY—SIMPSON 14-DUBUQUE 7. In playing their first game on Neff Field, the Redmen triumphed over Dubuque 14 to 7 in a hard fought con- test. Mathew and Hollen handled the scoring role for Simpson in a game that was tied until the final quarter when Mathew plunged over. It was Simpson’s Homecoming and marked the dedication of Neff Field. PARSONS GETS BY SIMPSON, 19-8. In a rough and rugged contest the Redmen of Simpson went down in de- feat to the Kelley Greens from Parsons by the score of 19-8. Simpson tallied first on a short plunge over the middle by Mathew. Parsons came storming back and at the half held a 13-6 lead. Simpson’s last score came on a safety in the third period. Injuries were fre- quent with several Simpson men being lost for the season. FIRED DUTCHMEN DOWN SIMPSON, 34-14. A highly irate gang of Dutchmen from Central pinned a 34-14 defeat on our Redmen. Again, as has been true in other contests, Simpson tallied first but was unable to hold the lead. Larry Parr and Norm Miller scored the T.D.’s for the Redmen. Central blasted across 20 points in the final quarter to gain the victory. OMAHA OVERPOWERS SIMPSON, 38-6. In the final game of the year the Red- men battled Omaha on even terms for the first half but gave up 32 points in the final half and went down 38-6. Simp- son outdowned Omaha, but couldn’t match the scoring power of the Indians. This game marked the final appearance of several fine performers who have been standouts all year. They were Larry Parr, Norm and Bob Miller, Bob Norris, Cecil Rhoades, and A1 Perrier.

The close of the 1950 football season, marked an end to the collegiate football days of six seniors who had been standouts all year. LARRY PARR--a left halfback from Sac City. Larry is a four letter man in football and was rough and reliable on both offense and defense. He called signals on the offensive. NORM MILLER—also a four letterman in football. Norm was an end from Macedonia. He was considered one of the best pass receivers in the conference. BOB MILLER--a big and rough tackle from Macedonia. Bob is a brother of Norm and also has earned four letters in football. He was all-conference both in 1949 and 1950 and had one of his best years playing as a senior. CECIL RHOADS--an end from Red Oak. Cecil is fast and is elusive. He is an excellent pass receiver. BOB NORRIS—a three year letterman from Indianola. Bob played end and was tough on defense and a good pass receiver. He was also considered an outstanding blocker. w!lJ5RR15R’,ra 5 !lback center from Madrid who proved to be a good blocker and a hard hitting line backer. was named d three men on the 311 conference team.

Always playinv a tough schedule, the Redmen of this year were out- scored many times, but never were they outfought. Starting the season with only four lettermen, and destined to lose all-conference Chuck Kerr at mid-year because of a call to service, the Redmen were found short on experience, and compared to other teams, were usually found short on height. Leading the scoring parade for this season was Ed Weeks with 220 points. Roger Clevan 215; Chuck Kerr, even though he missed the last nine games, finishedwith 214; Jim Mathews, 211; Ivan Davis, 175; Cliff Teale, 133; Bob Woodcock, 84; Ove Strandskov, who was also lost at mid-year, had 59 points. Short on Experience The Redmen opened the season at the Canton, Missouri Tournament, losing in the first round to Peru Teachers 78-64, and in the consolation to Western Illinois 60-49. Ove Strandskov and Chuck Kerr led the scoring in these two games with 15 and 16 points respectively. Jim Mathews was named to the all-tourney team. In the opening game at home Simpson sent Doane College down to defeat by the score of 58-56. Kerr was top scorer with 23 points. The Redmen then traveled to Ames and were caught in a Cyclonic thrust 77-44. eleven dumped in 9 points to lead the Redmen. Holding an 8 point lead at half-time, Simpson old only garner 18 points in the final half and were t down 76-57 by a fine Kirksville team.

Central rallied in the last minute against Simpson to end up on top with a score of 69-68. Mathew’s 22 points couldn’t help Simpson defeat the Kelley Greens who went on to win 80-67. Mathew again pushed through 10 baskets but still the Redmen couldn’t fight off the Cornell attack which ended 64-62, Cornell over Simpson. Weeks scoring 20 points.

Simpson came bouncing back to send our arch rival, Central, down in defeat 64-63, Cleven scoring 20 points. Ivan Davis again came through with 15 points against St. Ambrose of Daven- port, but it didn’t stretch far enough, as St. Ambrose set Simpson down the second time 80-66. Simpson suffered their second great loss of the season to Dubuque 71-48. Kirksville Teachers of Missouri outscored Simpson 70-47. The Redmen then met Coe to take a second defeat of 82-61, Weeks and Davis scoring 12 points each. For the last game of the season, the Redmen met Omaha down there fora heated battle.

From the won and lost standpoint, the Redmen were below the .500 mark for the first time in many years, but they were battling for the Southern Division title in the final game. Opening the season against Iowa State the Redmen dropped two to the Big Seven school. The Redmen went on to play a see-saw season winning six and losing eight games. In Iowa Conference play Simpson came out with a three won three lost record, the last loss being Parsons which decided the Southern Division winner. Two outstanding games of the season were with Iowa Wesleyan and Central. The Iowa Wesleyan game was the Redmen’s best played game of the season, Simpson coming out on the long end of the score 10-1. The Central romp ended with Simpson leading by the football score of 25-14. Leading the mound corps this season was southpaw Don (Cat) Neumann and right- hander Jerry Doran.

The choir is under the direction of Prof. Crawford who has the job of mold- ing the voices into one and making that voice sound like the best collegiate choir in Iowa, for which this choir is noted. The Simpson choir sings in chapel every Tuesday and also sings for the church services in the Methodist Church on Sunday. This year the choir went on two extensive tours besides presenting other full concerts The fall tour included concerts at Boone, Perry, Guthrie Center high school, Carroll, Denison high school, Atlantic, Council Bluffs high school, and Shenandoah. Other evening concerts were given later in Indianola, one for the Des Moines Women’s Club, and the annual Des Moines concert at the Hoyt Sherman Place. In the spring the choir took a trip to Chicago for concerts there, made possible by the school and the Chicago Alumni Association through Mr. and Mrs. Ivan Willis The Chicago tour included concerts at Belvidere, Illinois; Sunday Evening Club Orchestra Hall, Chicago; Bradley; and Hinsdale Township High School. The tireless work and effort is repaid in full by the enjoyment of giving the con- certs, the pleasure of the tours and the satisfaction of singing. 35� a?

The one thing jthat was omitted this year was the campus spirit--the traditional pep stunts and costumes put on by the various organizations. Spirit seemed to be lacking in this respect during the week, but it seemed as though it was saved for the weekend. For, beginning with| the Varsity Show till the last notes of the Homecoming dance had been played, Spirit Jreigned supreme. Friday eveninj a highly enthusiastic crowd watched the Varsity Show at the high school auditorium. | This year the skits were presented by the classes instead of the organizations, the junior class being awarded the plaque for first prize. After the Varsity Show everyone proceeded in a snake dance to the huge bonfire. Here, after many cheers 444 and yells, the Royalty was presented. Katie Buxton, Paul Shires, and Professor Leslie Bechter reigned as princess, brave, and chief. Saturday morning the homecoming parade, led by the Royalty and the Simpson marching band, npoved through the streets of Indianola. The parade represented many hours of tireless wqrk and planning by everyone. After the last float had passed for the last time the crowd dispersed to view the many house decorations. To '-Itfir i ‘ fir Stadium D President Edwin E. Voigt presents Leroy Neff a citation at the dedication ceremony at halftime of the Homecoming game. The afternoon was highlighted by the dedication of the new Neff Field and the grandstand. The development of the new athletic field was made possible through the initial gift by Leroy Neff of Madrid. The new grandstand, made possible in part by donations to the 1950 Simpson College alumni association project, was presented by Herrold Mann, president of the Simpson College alumni association. President Voigt dedicated Neff field to “clean health and the highest kind of intercollegiate morals.” The prayer of dedication was given by Dr. John Hillman, president emeritus of Simpson College, while a tense crowd sat hushed with heads bowed. At the first game played on the Neff field the Redmen thrilled the homecoming crowd by defeating the Spartans of Dubuque, 14-6. Saturday evening students and alumni gathered at Hopper gym for the annual Homecoming dance. During intermission Alpha Tau Omega was awarded the coveted Homecoming Tomahawk for the highest rating in contests connected with the annual celebration. The Taus and the Pi Phi’s won firsts in the floats; first place in house decorations went to the Lambda Chis and the Alpha Chis; and the Pi Phis and SCIMO had the best window decorations.

The Zenith The Zenith, college yearbook, this year was changed from engraving to lithograph and was assembled under the leadership of Bill Peterson and with the aid of Dave Butler who handled the books finances. With time and effort the able and willing staff presented to the students a picture of the life on the Simpson campus in 1950-’51 through the Zenith. In addition to the Zenith and the Simpsonian, the Alumni Bulletin is another publication released by the college during the year. Mary Lou Ogan was the editor for the bulletin which is sent to all the alumni of Simpson College. A publications board composed of student and faculty members chooses the editor and business manager of the publications each year from applications and also acts as an advisor to the editors.

Before a large crowd of mothers gathered for the weekend festivities of Mothers Day, Miss Barbara Scott was crowned as May Queen. Her attendants were Miss Shirley Brindley, Miss Donna Olmsted, Mrs. Robert Keller, and Mrs. Charles Kerr. Following the ceremony and program the campus visitors were entertained at tea by President and Mrs. Voigt. A banquet in honor of the mothers was held that evening in the church school. Of course there was campus day with mock chapel, Simpsonian, a clean campus and no classes. Later in the month came the All College Carnival sponsored by the Y.W.C.A. During the evenings activities Ronald Phillips and Mary Lee McBride were named carnival king and queen. Don Leopp and Mrs. Wendell Tutt were revealed as “Mr. and Mrs. Heartbeat”. All these activities added memories of the year and soon the last class was over, semester tests through and we were waving goodbye to Simpson and our friends. To some we were saying goodbye for the summer but to some forever. WE REMEMBER The Beginning--Freshman Tests There wasn’t a girl shortage. Registration “Sock-Hop” Paying For Our Education And at last GRADUATION June 3, 1950, marked the end of the college journey for ninety-eight students— a journey which took a lot of hard work and effort but one with memories of pleasure and enjoyment. The Commencement address was given by Bishop Fred P. Carson of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. For these 98 students, life as a student in Simpson College was now a memory— for they were no longer students but were now alumni, and in the distance could be heard the familiar strains of— “Come, we will sing together Once more the ringing song, The strains that the coming classes Unceasingly shall prolong. The praise of our Alma Mater, Dear Simpson thy sons so bold, Will cherish thy recollections, And swear by the Red and Gold.” 1950 COMMENCEMENT Beverly Balmer Sharon Davis Nation Marilyn Burnham Marjorie DeBruyn Maxine Robinson Beverly Copple Barbara Frazier Lucile Sargent Sara Beth Crouse Jeannette Ogan Wanda Stout Qualified and Recommended to Receive the Stands pi.
