It is only fitting, in this period of planning expansion, to com- memorate his passing of a year ago, for it was his dream and plans on which we' base our hopes for the future of our school. The entire latter years of his presidency were spent in formulating and organizing' plans for a greater University at Southern. The magnetic personality of Mr. Pulliam was felt by everyone with whom he came in contact. It was immediately seen that he was a dynamic speaker, a teacher, administrator, writer, gentleman, believer in democracy -a statesman in every respect. It was Mr. P'ulliam's belief that a man should aid every other man and give praise to him for his accomplishments. This spirit of friendli- ness and idea of democracy may be stated in his own words- Let's shine each other's halos. 1 OUR TOMORROW -k Beiowce Y e-MX Xnexbet, Sonbbetn bee wang QX-ans A Sex? euunenelxen wnxeb vi eve to nxwzefk-aXXv,e entkng, wbeb b-as been XN ex 3 eats.

THOMPSON Director of Registration and Education SPRINGFIELD DEAN OF MEN For over twenty years Southern's coeds have come to Miss Lucy K. Woody, Dean of Women, for advice and counsel. Her quick understand- ing and helpful guidance make her a Well liked personality and a capable leader of college Women. In her office Dean Woody keeps a complete record of every Woman en- rolled in the University. Grades, ac- tivities, addresses, and chapel seats are only part of data kept in her iiles. Mary Frances Gillespie, Gladys Hunsaker, and Velma McCormick assist Dean Woody in keeping her office the useful office that it is. PgS f DEANS Dean Eli G. Lentz and his student secretaries, James Newton and Aud- rey Lantrip, have the task of keeping a complete record of every man reg- istered at S.I.N.U. Charles S. Chan- dler assisted Mr. Lentz during the early part of the year in contacting prospective students throughout southern Illinois and in advising men students on the campus. This office also distributes student loans, helps With registration, and directs men's housing. Because of his ability to give serv- ice, the men of Southern recognize Dean Lentz as an agile counselor and a charming gentleman. DEAN OF WOMEN OUR LEADERS Working early and late to acquaint himself with all the responsibilitie's of his office and to assure uninterrupted progress for Southern Illinois Normal University, Dr. Chester F. Lay of Austin, Texas, has already established himself as the right man for the job in his new role as president of Southern. Outlining his plans for Southern, Dr. Lay stressed the fact that the school's function as a training center for teachers will not be scuttled or hampered as a result of its recent authorization to offer a liberal arts program. The training of teachers will remain the core of the school, he asserted. Along with the growth of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, a College of Vocations will also be expanded, including training in such fields as merchandising, commerce, accounting, secretarial work, manual and mechanical arts, and craftsmanship. The Southern campus-its faculty, buildings, farms, to all our re- sources and all our strength-will be made available for maintaining and upbuilding economic, educational, and cultural standards of fthe people living in our territory, the new president concluded. Under the capable supervision of Miss Helen A. Shuman, Administra- tive Assistant to the president, and her group of assistants, the functions of the president's office are carried out. Miss Wanda Kiel is Acting Sec- retary to the president and Virginia Eckert, Jane Mitchell, Dorothy Jones, and Florence Alston are the student assistants. From left to right are.

LAY P11110 Jvfllt'ff'L'1l The Council of Administration, organized in the fall of 1935 by Roscoe Pulliam, is an advisory board meeting once a week in the President's Office, under the chairmanship of the President of the College. This Council consists of the Business Manager, the Head of the Department of Educa- tion, the Director of Practice Teaching, the Dean of Women, the Dean of Men, the Director of Extension, the Registrar, the Chairman of the Faculty Senate, and two student representatives. The chief purpose of this Council is to consider all major matters of internal college policy. To accept recom- mendations, or suggestions, referred from campus organizations is the duty of the Council of Administration. PCJLICY MAKERS The Student Council, composed of four representatives from each class, was established in 1936 with modest powers and authority to oversee the regulating of student-administration relations, the formulating of rules for the student body, the election of editors for the campus publications, the managing of some of the student social functions, and campus elections. This organization is comprised solely of students, and serves as a governing body. It is a means by which the students have the opportunity to voice their opinions concerning campus affairs.

Miles. With the aid of Aileen Davis, the secre- tary, this office takes care of money transac- tions having to do with all parts of the college. Student assistants this year are Wilma Nell Moore and Frances Mc- Corkle. Included in this office is that of the Bur- sar, Miss Lucile Ether- ton. Her two assistants are Irene Dakin and Eu- gene Vaughn. The Accounting Office takes care of the records of funds used by every branch of the university. Mrs. Mable Howell heads this department with Fi- della Doolan, Verna Por- ter, Pauline Crader, Eliz- abeth Smith, and Evelyn Burpo assisting her. BUSINESS DEPARTMENT Materials purchased for Southern are acquired under the guidance of Miss Connie Beach and her staff. Shown in the picture from left to right are Euline Dallas, Connie Beach, Alice Jean Clark, and Beulah Hawthorne. Those absent from the picture are Betty Koontz and Ruth Evelyn Knight. The Registrar's Office handles all transcripts, catalogues, individual records, and class sched- ules. Miss Marjorie Shank, registrar, is head of one of the busiest offices. Her staff is com- posed of Mary Lou Mc- Neill, Jean Copeland, Charlotte Harris, June Fulkerson, Sue Jackson, Marion Gruber and Flor- ence Kutcosky. Page Tuicul .N BUSINESS OFFICE ACCOUNTING OFFICE PURCHASING OFFICE REGISTRARYS OFFICE PLACEMENTS PRACTICE MIMEOGRAPH MUSEUM From the beginning it has been the policy of the Place- ments Office to render the greatest amount of service it can to the public schools of Illinois. It does this by recom- mending the best candidates for positions to be filled. Mr. W. G. Cisne is responsible for making these contacts with teachers and schools. His of- fice assistants are Catherine Gibbs and Peggy Boucher. The Practice Office, With Dr. Bruce W. Merwin super- vising and Shirley Allen as- sisting, consists of the follow- ing three branches: campus laboratory school, Brush train- ing school, and rural practice schools. Recently a new budget plan has been made for expansion of the department and its fa- cilities. This consists of 3231,- 638 set aside for site prepara- tion, 31,704,235 for construc- tion, S859,368 for a power plant, 3275, 637 for a service building, and 3'p819,005 set aside for mechanical and elec- trical service. CAMPUS OFFICES All official bulletins, an- nouncements, examinations, and other materials are print- ed by the Mimeograph Office. Lenore Zanini and Marie Res- tivo have been the operators of the machines this year. The activities of this office are -vital to the operation of the university. Page 7'wcuty-j?1'c The chief interest of Mr. John Allen, director of the S.I.N.U. museum, is the pio- neer history and culture of Southern Illinois. Through his efforts, assisted by members of the history department and other interested persons in this region, Mr. Allen has dis- covered many valuable pieces of information and articles which are now displayed in the museum on the third Hoor of Parkinson laboratory. This museum is open to the public throughout the week and on Saturday mornings. BUREAU OF CHILD GUIDANCE EXTENSION The Bureau of Child Guid- ance is a service agency that was established on the campus in 1936. Its major function is to aid teacher-education. This is being accomplished through its psychological clin- icsg its staffings of individual casesg and through the several series of seminars where each class member does a complete case study, including a de- tailed diagnosis of the child which is followed by a thera- py. Many children are also brought from various com- munities in Southern Illinois to the college campus through the year for individual diag- nosis and treatment. The Illinois Institute for Juvenile Research also sends two of its staff members to work with the Bureau at the times of the quarterly clinics. Several other state agencies likewise cooperate in the study of various cases and partici- pate in other aspects of the teacher-education program. CAMPUS OFFICES For the past eight years, Dr. T. W. Abbott has been responsible for the large num- ber of extension courses of- fered to the people of this area. Even more courses are now being given in those areas in Southern Illinois where a number of students need to further their education and find it impossible to attend classes on the campus. It is hoped that this practice will continue to grow in post-war years as new classes are of- fered. ' Pug v 'l 2i'l'I11-I PUBLICITY PHOTOGRAPHY The personnel of the Pub- licity Office, connecting link between Southern Illinois Normal University and all newspapers in the area, con- sists of Dr. R. L. Beyer, Head of the History Department, Clara Pixley, and Catherine Sullivan. This office was put into op- eration in 1935 with the assis- tance of Roscoe Pulliam. Its duties are to publicize Que activities of students and fac- ulty members of the Univers- ity, and to place written and pictorial information about the college in the St. Louis newspapers, as well as in all metropolitan newspapers in Illinois. CAMPUS OFFICES It is the duty of the Photo- graphic Department to serve the Obelisk, Southern's year- bookg the Egyptimrz., our Week- ly newspaper 5 the Southern Alizmznus. Alumni magazineg and the University High School yearbook. It also makes copy work, prints, and projec- l 1 tx tion plates for other depart- ments on the campus. This year the school has been unfortunate in having the office open only part of the year. Helen Mitchell and Esther Bramstead have aided Mr. J. Cary Davis, depart- ment supervisor, in carrying on the work. PROFESSCRS ARE PECPLE A PROF AT REST This year the Obelisk has seen fit to choose as a representative de- partment, one of the most progressive divisions on our campus-SOUTH- ERN'S CHEMISTRY DEPARTMENT. For fourteen years Drs. Neckers, Scott, Abbott, and Van Lente have worked together in mutual agreement, ignoring oiers to engage in professional chemical research to make this department one to turn out both good teachers and professional chemists. Recently it was reported that a chemistry manual Written by members of the department has gone into its second printing. This should demon- strate the growing importance of these men and their work. ' Page Twmlfy-L'igllf DR. T. W. ABBOTT Dr. Abbott came to Southern in 1928 to fill in temporarily for Dr. Scott, married the school registrar, and settled down in Carbondale to do the thing he always wanted to do-teach. This pleasing personality likes South- ern's students for their sincerity and in- itiative. He feels that they know the value of money and also the value of a good edu- cation. Especially in his specialized field, organic chemistry, Dr. Abbott's greatest enjoyment comes in working with these students. DR. J. W. NECKERS Dr. Neckers began his teaching career at Southern in 1927. Preferring teaching to industrial work and liking the atmos- phere of a college town, Dr. Neckers stayed in Carbondale to become the Chemistry Department's agile leader. This man is very conscientious in his work and personally feels that Southern's chemistry staff has the ability and spirit to turn out not only good teachers but professional chemists. DR. R. A. SCOTT Professor Scott was the first of the quartet to arrive at Southern, coming to us in the fall of 1922. Besides being a veteran faculty member, the fact that he is an Illinois man and a World War I veteran are proof enough that he belongs to Southern's teaching staff. Dr. Scott doesn't quite know how he be- came a teache1', for it was never his ambi- tion to be one. However, he isn't sorry that he entered the profession because he en- joys his work immensely. This prof. sincerely believes there is something to that adage of Southern Hospitality. This is one reason he stayed in Carbondale'. DR. K. A. VAN LENTE The chemistry professor who spends his spare time working with mechanics and making equipment for the laboratory is none other than Dr. Van Lente. A member of the Spirits of '76, the name given to Southern's faculty athletic teams, this man enjoys participating in basketball, baseball, and tennis. Perhaps he enjoys his work on the second Hoor of Parkinson Laboratory most of all, however, for he truly likes 'being a chemistry teacher. His specialized field is physical chemistry. nge Twenty- WHO'S WHO IN AMERICAN UNIVERSITIES AND COLLEGES Throughout the leading universities and colleges in America, a num- ber of young men and Women are chosen each year to represent their school in Whois Who. These students are chosen primarily on the basis of activities and service to their school but scholastic standings are also considered. This year, seventeen members were chosen from Southern to rank with campus leaders from all other universities and colleges. Recognition keys or rings are offered as Well as having the students'names published in the yearbook of campus leaders, Who's Who in American L77L'iUC7 S?:f2l8S cmd Colleges.

Membership in Sphinx is limited to fifteen members of the Junior class, Who are recognized at a special chapel program in the spring, and five additional members of the same class who are taken into the club during their senior year. Dr. Thomas F. Barton serves as sponsor of the organization. Students selected for membership in Sphinx are chosen on the basis of their outstanding services to Southern, which include leadership in various organizations, promotion of student and school welfare, participa- tion in extra-curricular activities, and service on committees. Sphinx is the highest non-scholastic honor which a student at Southern may achieve.

The Delta Chi chapiter of Kappa Delta Pi was installed at Southern in May, 1989, with Dr. Willis G. Swartz as first counselor. With the resigna- tion of Dr. Schwartz last year, Dr. Douglas E. Lawson was elected coun- selor of the local chapter. Students from the Junior and Se- nior classes having the necessary requirements receive bids to Kappa Delta Pi at the annual Honors Day ceremony held each spring. At pres- ent, a bid ito Kappa Delta Pi is the highest scholastic honor which a stu- dent on Southern's campus may receive. Members, from left to right, are Smith, Lawson, Miller, Morris, Led- better, Davis, Nelson, Baldwin, Cra- der, Schwegman, Wright, Williams, Adams, Mann, Appert, Stahleheber.

Once again the staff tries to present to the students of S.l.N.U. a representative pictorial and journal- istic record of the activities of our school during another year of war. As the close of World War II draws nearer, our eyes are lifted toward the future -toward the expected expansion of our facilities as a teacher's college and as a uni- versity. Some plans have been advanced for Our Tomorrow. Others are still in the embryonic stage. It will be interesting to watch them develop in the years to come. The OBELISK this year is dedicated to a man who advanced numerous plans for greater growth of the institution-Dr. Roscoe Pulliam. He gave his life while seeing that Southern enlarged its educational facilities and services. In its thirty-first year of publication, the OBELISK pays tribute to him.

DAN GETS SNOOPERVISED Badly erippled by the loss of three editors-Editor Jim Dodd, Sports Editor Cletis Hise, and Art Editor Curtis Hise-to the Army, the' Egyp- ticm has carried on through one more war year. The past nine months has seen thirty-one issues of the paper safely to bed, made possible by stu- dents who had a love for journalism, and a desire to carry the ball for HOT COPY the Egyptian. The paper is, and will continue to be, the voice of the stu- dent body. This is a pledge which will be fulfilled year after year because as some step out, others will replace them. Always there Will be those stu- dents With printer's ink in their blood, the' roar of presses in their ears, and the spirit of journalism born Within them.

LOIS LEDBETTER CLARA PIXLEY The Southern Alumnus, the quar- terly bulletin of the S.I.N.U. Alumni Association, serves as a medium of contact between Southernis alumni and the university itself. Years after students have left the campus, they maintain an active interest in the events and progress at Southern, and they also are eager to learn bits of news concerning their former class- mates. This year, the Southern Alumnus underwent a change both in form and in management. Formerly, the publi- cation was a twenty page magazine under a staE of its owng but that form was unsatisfactory from the point of both circulation and finance. The past three issues have consisted of an eight-page bulletin published under the supervision of the Public Relations Office. The 1944-45 Editor- ial Board consisted of Dr. Richard L. Beyer, Director of Publicity, and Lois Ledbetter and Clara Pixley, student assistants.

KAPPA PHI KAPPA PROFESSICDNAL This year several students on the campus felt the need for some type of discussion society. They believe that a free exchange of opinions and ideas is an essen- tial element in the succe'ssful development of intelli- gent thinking. With this in mind, they went to Dr. Douglas E. Lawson, who for some time had been in- terested in debate and open forums. With his help these students composed a list of by-laws and set up an organization under the name of Tau Delta Rho, Greek letters for Truth, Discussion, and Reason. Fif- teen students signed the by-laws to become the society's charter members and James Pleasant became its first president. Tau Delta Rho has already proved its worth on the campus by discussing such topics as What Should Be Done to Develop the Natural Resources of Southern Illinois and What Should Come Out of the San Fran- cisco Peace Conferencef' Faculty members participated in both these discussions. TAU DELTA RHO Pug eS TAU Mu Tau Pi, which was organized on this campus in 1931, by Richard L. Beyer, has rendered a great service since that time in furthering and developing journalism in Southern Illinois schools. This has been done by establishing contact with the various high school newspapers and offering them the services available on our campus for judging newspapers and holding press conferences. Since press conferences are not now held because of the war, Mu Tau Pi has inaugurated a new rating service for the high school papers of this area in which they may be sent in, judged, and the decisions returned by mail. Prese'nt members of the organization are Clara Pixley, presidentg Helen Mataya, Lillian Goddard, Doris Crader, Maxine Harris, Chuck Chandler, Lois Ledbetter, Mary John Baldwin, Dorothy Rush, and Marie Bledsoe.

The high- light of the two-day period, With- out a doubt, was the musical come'dy produced by the Little Theatre, dramatic organization of Southern Illinois Normal Uni- versity. All the skits were based on war-time living and were written or sent in by members of the Armed Forces, students, or Mrs. Julia Neely. We Left Home, the title, was a camp show for civilianSf The Little Theatre, flying in the face of superstition, came through With its annual spring production on April 13-Friday! The three-act drama, Heart of a City, portrayed the story of the Windmill Theatre, the only London Theatre to remain open during the German Blitz of 1941. All proceeds were turned over to the local Red Cross Chapter. Mrs. Julia Neely, director of both productions, deserves much credit for taking over the spon- sorship of the Little Theatre. PJNt As the only institution of its kind in Southern Illinois, S.I.N.U. has a responsibility to meet in keeping the people of this region informed as to the school's activities. By being on the' air twice each Week with broadcasts directly from the cam- pus, Southern has established an effective contact between the people which it serves and the uni- versity itself. Each Wednesday afternoon at 2:00 p. ni., The SINU Period is presente'd over station WEBQ in Harrisburg..inder the direction of Mrs. Mae Trovillion Smith, the Wednesday program fea- tures outstanding student musicians, campus speakers, and the work of various school groups and departments.

One cannot think of Southern Without the Little Theatre or of Homecoming Without a play. This year's Little Theatre Homecoming production, We Left Home, a camp show for civilians, was written by students, fac- ulty, and members of the armed forces. It Was skillfully directed by Mrs. Julia Neely. The presentation was divided into two acts with fourteen skits, including musical com- edy and variety. The fourteen colorful epi- sodes mimicked the imagined problems and tribulations of civilians on the home front. 14' HCME Swan 2 . 1 D '- O 'K ,tv -n-- .- c . 'fag ' eg A W . D I - I 0 11374.

The most spectacular play of the afternoon came early in the final period. Southern had just taken the ball on downs on their own 30-yard line when George Beltz broke loose on the first play for a 70-yard run and a touchdown. One of the feature attractions presented be- tween halves of the game was the awaited appear- ance of the long traditionary symbol of Southern -the Sphinx, carried into the stadium upon the shoulders of members of the Southern Knights. Each year it is presented at homecoming and other important events in which the Southern Knights participate. Those carrying the symbol of Southern were Rodney Kraatz, Gene Wells, former Royal Duke, James Dodd, and Chuck Chandler, Homecoming chairman. Mr. Kraatz and Wells were on leave from the Navy. I, J...

Page One Hundred Four TO SCDUTHERN Southern's football team this year was small and was built around only one return- ing letterman, Hewey Tweedy. The Maroons, while lacking seasoned civilian players or Navy trainee units, showed excellent team- work throughout the season and the boys showed great spirit for their coach a11d school. Commenting on individual players near the end of the season, Coach Martin said Earl Robert was the best one year player he had ever seen. Other boys that Martin mentioned as having made vast improve- ment were Leedio Cabutti, Ed Hoffman, George Beltz, Bob Stanton, and Bill Eaton. The coach spoke of Bill Cosgrove as being the best freshman center that he can recall in his years here at Southern. Near the end of the season Martin lost several of his top players, and had to cancel the final game on the Maroon schedule, the Cape Girardeau tilt. The following twenty boys were lettermen this year: Bill Arnold, George Beltz, James Benedict, Leedio Cabutti, John Ca-tlin, Bill Cosgrove, Gary Dangutis, Bill Eaton, Gerald Englehart, Robert Fox, Ed Hoiman, Don LaSusa, Charles Lewis, Sam Milosevich, Nor- man Nilsson, Earl Robert, J. D. Shields, Bob Stanton, Hewey Tweedy, and Harry Wil- liamson. . Southern's Maroon and White gridders initiated their 1944 season with a victory on home ground, September 30, as they tram- pled a much publicized Eastern State Teach- ers eleven from Charleston, 15-12. Southern was unsure of the Charleston team during the first quarter, allowing them to draw the first score. However, by' halftime Southern had scored a touchdown, converted, and scored a safety to lead 9 to 6. Southern scored again early in the third and from then on the Charleston boys took over the offensive s-coring in the final stanza. Page One Hundred Fizz: CAPTAIN HEWEY TWEEDY BILL FREEBURG i f ml V ,r .4 Playing its first out-of-town game of the season, Southern fell before a powerful navy- studded Indiana State team, 55-6, on October 7, at Memorial Stadium in Terre Haute. Although the Maroons played a much bet- ter brand of ball than they did aganist Charleston the week before, showing all around team improvement, they were defi- nitely not a match for the strong Indiana team. Southern's only score came late in the final quarter when Jamie McGee, second string backfield man, caught a short pass from Bill Arnold on the 14-yard line. Southern again jumped into the win col- umn on October 14, when they romped over Western Teachers, 25-6, to defeat the Ma- comb team for the first time in eleven years. The locals, while not playing the smooth, consistent teamwork type of ball that they had employed thus far in the season, never- theless, were easy victors over Western, al- though they let the Macomb lads score their first touchdown of the season. Page One H d S ... - . .gn-4.-4 11' L .1.. -Q.. Alert blocking and speedy backiield play- ing provided the locals with their power as they ran rough shod over Western Teachers, 39-0 on Oct. 28, at McAndrew Field to defeat the leatherne'cks for the second time during the season. Western, who was expected to give South- ern a good fight, played a defensive ball game I ,Y Y ,' W, , 1 sr. A A A almost entirely as the local boys reached pay dirt time after time. This win put Southern in first place' in the race for a mythical IIAC football championship, with three wins and no defeats in conference play. After holding Cape Girardeau State Teach- ers 7-6 for three full quarters, the Southern Maroons went to pieces as the Indians staged a final stanza scoring spree to win their last home game of the season, 26-7, on Nov. 4. Martin substituted freely both on the line and in the backfield, throwing into the In- dians a scare which didn't wear off until they had rolled up a comfortable margin in the third period. Cape's team had lost several of their Navy V-12 players through transfers before the game, but at the same time was reinforced by new players. Southern lost their first chance since 1930 to win an Illinois Intercollegiate Athletic Conference football championship as they let DeKalb take this year's laurels in a 13-12 triumph, Nov. 10, at McAndrew Field. The Maroons led 12-7 for three quarters and it wasn't until the last two minutes of play in the final quarter that DeKalb was again able to gain a scoring position. Page One Hundred Seven HEWEY TWEEDY EDWARD HOFFMAN BILL COSGROVE ALL-STAR TEAM Southern placed three men on this year's Illi- nois Intercollegiate Athletic Conference All-Star football te'am which was chosen by Cletis Hise, Egyptian Sports Editor, and Associated Press sports Writer, after a poll of coaches and sports Writers. The team was composed of younger players than usual this year, and included at least one representative from each of the Conference schools except Old Normal, who was not included because she employed navy players. The Maroons' contributions were on the line only, although there were Southerners considered for a backfield position. The Maroons who made this year's team were Edward Hoiman, tackle from Murphysborog Bill Cosgrove, center from Bentong and Hewey Tweedy, guard from Anna- Jonesboro. ,Y ., , ..., ., . . A , J!

Page One I-hmclrecl Eight BASKETBALL Although at the beginning of the season Coach Glen Abe Martin was feeling dubi- ous about his basketball prospects since he had lost several of his top-notch athletes at the end of the preceding term, he was suc- cessful in developing a number one cage squad this year, molding his offense around his three returning lettermen. Southern's three returning veterans were Sam Milosevich, Don Shefer, and Dick Har- mon. The two boys who completed the first five were Dick Foley and Leedio Cabutti. Other members who were awarded a varsity letter were Bill Aldridge, Donald Dillow, Earl Robert, and Norman Nilsson, who left after the first few games to serve in the army. Martin and his Southern Maroons began their .1944-45 basketball season Dec. 4, with a 60-53 triumph over the Fairfield Cheifords, an independent team. After this preliminary game the locals met a powerful Navy trainee team from Indiana State Teachers College, winning 49-44 in the'ir iirst home contest. The next night Southern met its first defeat at the hands of Murray State Teachers, 50-36, after losing Sheffer at the half. From there the Maroons continued their victory streak by defeating their arch rivals, Cape Girardeau State Teachers, and staging a last-minute scoring spree to edge out Illi- nois We'sleyan. Southern chalked up their first cage vic- tory of the new year by defeating Evansville College, won their return engagement with Indiana State, and then registered a 48-45 victory over Old Normal in the initial IIAC Conference encounter for each team. Southern lost their return engagement to Evansville, and then started a iive-game vic- tory string which included Charleston, Ma- comb, DeKalb, Old Normal, and Illinois Wes- leyan, before losing finally their return tilt with Cape. Southern, who had led their conference all season, won a victory from Macomb, and then dropped two straight to DeKalb and Charleston, respe'ctively, to take permanent possession of second place in the IIAC. Sam Milosevich, a junior from Zeigler, was chosen by the Southern basketball team as the most outstanding player on the 1944- 45 squad. Sam was Southern high scorer on last season's team and repeated this honor again this year by scoring 218 points. This year Sam was the Conference's second place high score man, and was recognized as one of the outstanding centers in the midwest. Members of the team, from left to right, are, first row: N.

HEWEY TVVEEDY erans begin to register at S.I.N.U., Since its organization on South- ern's campus in 1932, the I Club has become known and recognized as not just a group' of varsity letter Winners, but a group of organized men Whose main desire is that of serving Southern. The aims of the I Club are friendliness, cooperation, helpfulness, brotherhood and sportsmanship. The Club is fortunate in having Coach Glenn Abe Martin as ' its sponsor. His interest in the men, sug- gestions as to how the Club could become more efficient, and sound ad- vice have gained for him the admira- tion of all the' members. To Hewey Tweedy Went the office of president this year. He, too, has done a iine job in a year which marked the return of football to our campus. As a larger number of vet- the teams will improve and an even bigger and better I Club is expected. Members of Southern's 1944-45 I Club are listed below: Hewey Tweedy, president Sam Milosevich, vice-president George Schroeder, secretary Harry Williams Don Sheffer Bill Eaton Dick Harmon Ted Cain Don Chase Dale Houghland Dick Foley Dick Avis Jim Norman Leedio Cabutti Earl Robert Page One Hundred Fam teen SOUTHERN'S BASEBALL Baseball, one of the greatest nationally played sports, has been found in some form on Southern's campus since the beginning of S.I.N.U. For the most part, however, it has been played as intramurals instead of one of the scheduled seasonal sports. Dominating summer play, TWeedy's Red Birds retained their peren- nial hold on Southern's baseball honors. The Red Birds ente'red the Twilight League which was om high school teams and other independent groups. The c es held on the Chautauqua diamond.

The various sports in which the women at Southern participate to maintain physical iitness are hockey, badminton, tennis, basketball, golf, bowling, softball, ping pong, vol- leyball, speedball, and soccer. They not only have the various seasonal sports, but dancing and calisthenics are also offered in the curriculum. The majors in Physical Education go a little further in their training, for they engage in track and field sports and swimming. In the fall, the main sports that the girls participate in are hockey and tennis. Around Homecoming the atmosphere is very heavy with anticipation of the Homecom- ing hockey game between the Alumnus and the Varsity squad. After hockey dies down, the sport of all sports takes the limelight. The gym becomes the center of attraction, for the end of hockey season means basketball is in full swing once again. A class tournament and a house tourney are held. To cause more enthusi- asm and to draw larger crowds to the gym, a trophy is given to the winner of the house tournament. This year the gym was packed with fans for their favorite house. This is the most exciting sport of the season. It takes a couple of weeks for the basketball fever to wear off 3 then the girls begin table tennis and bowling. These sports are minor because no practice is required. Then, if the Weather clears and the field isn't a floating Mississippi, softball is begun. Some of the boys on the Southern baseball team are ashamed of their playing when they see all the home runs and fancy pitching and catching done by the girls of the Women's Phys- ical Education Department.

WAA The W.A.A. is an important cog in the wheel that represents sport here at Southern. The underlying principles on which W.A.A. is based are fellowship, sportsmanship, and the desire to stimulate interest in various activities. Aside from being the instigator of all women's sports on the campus, the organization as a whole finds time to take off on various pleasure jaunts, such as trail hikes, picnics, or what have you. The girls ventured on a trail hike early in the fall and after falling over fences, getting caught in briars, building a new railroad track, and getting lost at Thompson's Lake, the happy warriors landed at the reservoir where lusci- ous food awaited them. After the food was downed, song and gayety filled the air. When the last strains of our Alma Mater floated into the distance, weary W.A.A.'ers drifted home. As if to soothe their weary bones, it started to rain, but rain or shine, they always come' back for more.

She is now Acting Head of the Physical S W Education Department. A Dr. Davis was supervisor of the hockey and bad- I minton tournaments this year. i Having obtained her Master's Degree from Colum- bia University, she then re'ceived her Doctorate from the University of Cincinnati. DR. DOROTHY DAVIES Acting Head of Dept. Another new personality who came to our campus this fall is Miss Jean Stehr. Miss Stehr is from Houston, Texas. She received her degree from the Texas State College for Women and will receive her Master's Degree in August, 1945. Miss Stehr is noted for her friendly smile and southern drawl. Her main interest in physical education is the variety dances. Miss Frances Phillips joined the Wom- en's P. E. Department last fall. She has become very popular with all the' students in her classes. This year Miss Phillips ' supervised tennis, basketball, and softball. Miss Phillips is formerly of Carbondale and attended college here at Southern. She received her Master's Degree at Columbia University. She' is an Alumn of the Delta JEAN STEER Sigma Epsilon sorority. FRANCIS PHILLIPS Managers: Imogene Gray, Pauline Potts, Cleo Ulm, Theresa Ivanuck. Page Our Hmzdrvd Tuwuty-m VARIETY IN SPORT IS THE KEY WORD IN Ruff and Bradley discuss how to hit the bull's eye. ARCI-IERY You pull back the string and let go, Bull's Eye, well, maybe if you have had enough practice. If you see the girls going around with bruised arms or carrying a pillow with them you know someone let go of the arrow the wrong wary. Archery, too, is one of the minor sports but the girls have lots of fun trying to hit the bull's eye. If you- don't know how it is glone, just ask Dr. Davies, for she can give you all the pointers you will need. Page Onc I-lnnclrcd Twenty-I SOUTHERN'S PHYSICAL EDUCATION PROGRAM Ping pong and bowling are also classed as minor sports. However, the girls enjoy these two sports very much. Both of these tournaments are run off together. Pauline fPottsieJ Potts was the winner of both tourna- ments, both this year and last. Everyone is beginning' to 'believe Pottsie has suction with the pins, the way she can knock them down. In ping pong she just hits the ball back and forth and never misses. The final result is always the same-Pottsie, the winner. PING PONG BOWLING i Another point for this lucky girl. Right down the alley for another strike. Page One I'-lundrud 7'1c'cuty-tlrrm: In the fall, when the wind is brisk and nippy, you can find many W.A.A.'ers out on the hockey field practicing for the long await- ed Homecoming game between the Varsity squad and Alumns. This year there were enough girls out for practice to choose' teams and play a tourna- ment. N o record was kept of these games but many were played. Some of the freshmen who came out and really showed the older ones how to play were Turner, Logsdon, McNeill, Anderson, Adams, Galloway, and Pierce. These girls had never played the game much before but nevertheless put up stiff competition against the advanced play- ers. All of these girls played either on the Varsity or the Alumn team in the Homecom- ing game. The Varsity proved to be the strongest team, winning -by a score of 7 to 2. BADMINTON Cleo hits the bird as Pottsie waits for the return, After the game, everyone went to the cafe- teria for the annual Homecoming breakfast. Hockey was supervised by Dr. Davies. Swish! Swish! And does it hurt when you miss, but the birdie appreciates an occasional miss for in the game of badminton the bird gets a beating. This is especially so when Ivanuck, Ulm, Gray, and Suva get hold of the racquet. Badminton is one of the minor sports offered in the P. E. department for women. This year both beginning and ad- vanced tournaments were helcl. In the begin- ning tourney, Logsdon and Giacomelli were the winners while Ivanuck and Ludwig were the winners of the senior tournament.

There was plenty of stiff competition in all of the tourneys. First of all a class tournament was scheduled. The Junior class was undefeated. This team had one of the best lineups of any team ever to play in any tournament here at Southern. The for- ward line consisted of those three whiz players, Potts, Brown, and Ulm. The guards were Bra- zel, Wheeler, and Craig. There were several substitute players on each team. At the end of the class tournament, the winners played the faculty team, which consisted of several Alumns of Southern. Again the Juniors won, beating the faculty by a score of 39 to 26. Then the House Tournament began. After a series of practice games were held, the tourna- ment was underway. Large groups of girls came out to root for their favorite team. Even the college boys came over to see the fast games. Here is an account of the tournament.

This trophy had been held two years by the Tri Sigma sorority and one year by the House of 806 girls. Now a new name has been added to the list. Anthony Hall is the winner of the 1945 season of basketball. The high point player of both of the tourna- ments was Pauline Potts of the Tri Sigma sorority. In the class tournament Pottsie Cas she is known to her friends on the campusb scored a total of 108 points. In the House Tour- nament she scored a total of 85 points. Betty Logsdon, a freshman from Anthony Hall, was runner-up with a total of 71 points in the House Tourney.

VOLUME S IX H CUSES I WX DELTA l SIGMA I EPSILON I PI KAPPA SIGMA SORORITIES Pi Kappa Sigma is the oldest of the Association of Education Sororities. Alph-a Xi Chapter was installed here on May 14, 1939. Although it is outstanding' in -social -affairs, it also places great em- phasis on high scholarship. Avis Frank, a sophomore from Carbondale, received the coveted schol- -arship ring awarded annually to the outstanding Pi Kap student from all the chapters in the United States. The Chapter was honored this year to have as guests Mrs. C. P. Neidig, the Grand President of Cincinnati, Ohio, and Miss Marie Williams of Zeigler, Illinois, the Alumnae Chairman. The Pi Kaps had Open House the Fall Term and a Christmas Reception. They also held their an- nual formal Valentine Dance in the Little Theatre. There are thirty-one active members of Pi Kappa Sigma. They are: Grace Wegner, Mary Ellen Pangonis, Avis Frank, Maxine Harris, Evelyn Burpo, Wilma Nell Moore, Nina Theiss, Dorothy McCarnes, Neva Woodard, Betty Smith, Darcy Ackermawn, Opal Ruff, Shirley Miller, Mary Jane Sorrels, Evelyn Missavage, Norma Linkon, Evelyn Hubler, Pat Dick, Pat Hewlett, Katherine Butts, Margaret Hughes, Helen De Runtz, Martha Poullos, E. J. Craver, Peggy Bonifield, Earlene Johnson, Norma Martin, Margaret Paterson, Doris Bantel, Anna Marie Harne, and Pat Pulliam. Page One H-undrcuf Thirty F The first chapter of Delta Sigma Epsilon was organized at Miami University, Oxford, Ohio, on September 23, 1914. In 1917, the sorority was admitted into the National Panhellenic for Edu-cation Sororities. The Alpha Delta Chapter was organized at -Carbondale in 1928, the first national education sorority to be organized on the campus of Southern. The sorority has three annual social functions, Open House during the Fall Term, a Christmas Tea, and a Spring Tea.

Of the twenty girls who live at the house this year, most of them are members of the Independent Student Union. The chief social events of the year sponsored by the Co-op were a Wiener Roast at Crab Orchard in the Fall, a Christmas Dinner-party and a Swimming party in the Spring. Johnson's was represented on the Student Council by a freshman member, Clariann Rapp. House officers for the current year were Lois Ledbetter, president, and Bonnie Lou Dunn, vice-president.

Since the Normandy was also the name of a famous ship, the house is sp-oken of in nautical terms. The Norm-andy is an independent house functioning in accordance with the principles set forth by the Independent Student Union. Each term a new president, secretary, Independent Council rep- resentative, and campus affairs representative is elected. For their own enjoyment and for a record to the future members of the Normandy, the girls have kept a scrapbook of snapshots, Egyptian clippings, and other data in their log'.
