GUILD Dean of WIIIIIVCIL CLEVELAND S. LOPER Dean of Men Susan M. Guild, long a familiar figure on Washburn campus as dean of women, has a personal interest in the affairs of each girl. Dean Cuild works through the sororities and Benton Hall in becoming acquainted with women students and giving them friendly advice on how to get the most out of their college careers. She supervises the work of the Pan-Hellenic organization and devotes much of her time to her German classes. Dean of men, Cleveland S. Loper, is sympathetic and understanding in his contacts with men students. His five years of experience as dean of men enable him to solve financial and social problems of almost every Wor- ried student. He is also head of the engineering dc- partment. Jessie Dean, college librarian, commands quiet at all times in her sanctimonious rooms. Her subtle sense of humor and twinkling eyes win her many student friends. She administers a fund for needy girls maintained by Nonoso and Pan-Hellenic. JESSIE DEAN Librarian v F PRESIDENT Washburn College will celebrate its Diamond Jubilee in 1940. Along with a notable history, Washburn will lay emphasis on a present body of students unusually alive to the problems of their own education and making an excellent use of a line educational opportunity. There is an unusual capacity on the part of W'ashburn students for cooperating with each other and the faculty to improve any and all phases of the educational program. PHILIP C. KING.

ICHABGD'S GPINICDNS 0+ he by Bob Hemphill It was not, thought Mr. Ichabod, that he needed those hours, it was the principle of the thing. Mr. lchabod often told himself that he would maintain his principles, or any others which sounded plausible, with all his power, and he meant to maintain them in this instance. lVlr. lchabod was having trouble with the Ad- ministration again. An excessive number of cuts had given him a large F in Social Science 23, and, although Mr. lchabod neither considered nor cared about the appearance of his transcript, he felt it a matter of personal pride to adjust the situation at once, and with the least possible effort. Wllhey can't do this to rne,'7 he said to him- self, and that seemed to settle the issue. lf pressed for an explanation of c'They, Mr. lcha- bod probably would have waved a hand vaguely and disposed of the definition with 'LThe Ad- lUlIllSlI'EillOl'l.,, The rub came, however, here: Old Phizog, the prof, had been quite stuffy about the whole thing. It was in vain that Mr. lchabod waved his final paper under Old Phizog's nose and pointed with pardonable pride to the imposing 79 marked thereon. It was obvious that although Mr. lchabod looked upon this 79 with the bliss of a father upon his first-born, Old Phizog gave it a jaundiced eye. 'llt is of absolutely no impo1'tanee,,7 Phiz said. nYour grade in the final examination, such-harumph-as it is, means nothing at all. The fact remains, you had thirteen cuts in this two-hour course. l can do nothing but give you a failing grade in the subject. Rules-- harumph-are rules, we must abide by them, however unfair, unsatisfactory, and-er-umpf -they may be. This, even the sunny lVlr. lchabod admitted, made things look a little dark. Things were forever looking dark, he reflected bitterly, when- ever one ran afoul of the Administration. Mr. lchabod was always one to forget and forgive, and his was not a critical nature, but as he looked back upon the various difhculties he had had in the past with this abstract body, he could but assume that they were a hard-headed lot, to say the least. A man can abide so much, he said, but occasionally he finds it necessary to turn like the proverbial worm and bite the hand that teaches him. The whole semester-indeed, the whole year -had been one of trouble and travail, involv- ing, as it did, a series of problems concerning the unyielding tendencies of the Administration in its attitude toward lVlr. lehabod and his fu- ture. There had been the problem of enroll- ment for the fall term . . . lVlr. lchabod contemplated the semi-annual enrollment proceedings with loathing. There was something about the whole sordid busi- ness whieh appalled his aesthetic nature. For one thing, one had to dash thither and yon get- ting an unbelievable number of signatures on ff +11 ' -x Z X Q f JM 'Y H 'vlx -Q x. as xiii ,--x ,mx ga wx 3 if A g lu ,,,.,,v I f ' v N MP6 D JCM? J X I Rs? x f A lx,- flfbfzivzidhczzliafz small pieces ol paper. Then, too, there were requirements for grad- uation. Requirements 'lor graduation gave Mr. lchabod a headache. He de- cided that he must be allergic to the things, and, as the hour of his grad- uation was not imminent, he ordinarily looked upon it as one looks upon the end of the world. One might say that Mr. Ichabod put this fateful 5 ,.--- fvs ' lit .. lea-e ci is rw F5 'auf 'WA 'iss 'N 'A xv-N , rl, I In M 'ii X y' K 'X W . K5 f f 1 hour in the same classification with items which regularly appear in Robert Ripley's Believe lt Or Nota feature. Mr. lchabod chose his 7 ' subjects not for their possibilities as requirements for graduating, nor 7 'for their intrinsic valneg he chose them because they offered the great- Z lwmw ,bis est returns for the least ellortg i.e., those courses laughingly referred to K 4 about the campus as 'isnap coursesf, ' A But the Administration, hard-heads all, did not see eye to eye with this conservative possibility. There was always a certain amount of dis- fx sention, in spite of the fact that Mr. lchabod made a practice of approach- ing the most lenient-looking member of the faculty who had been pressed into service for enrollment day. V To say that lVlr. lchabod rallied around this susceptible member of a f,iilf', 9J, 1 notoriously unsuseeptible clan, is understatement. Mr. lchabod fairly exuded pleasantries and those little compliments which are dear to the , faculty soul. However, this was to no avail. The faculty member whom Mr. Icha- bod had chosen to put his John Henry on his enrollment slip was one of those mcck souls who will quibble with one for hours in a mild but adamzmt protest against what appears to be a wanton waste of time. As everyone knows, even the meekest faculty member will rise against time-wasting in any form, and this particular individual was no exeep- WMM tion. xi ,ml Before the first hour had passed, Mr. Iehahod had begun to wish that he had bearded a more tough-looking lion in the pendant lair. Mr. E I l.x,x,, l' Master of Science was becoming dillicult. He stated, in his halting fash- ,r 'Y4t ion, that he was of the opinion that Mr. Ichabod would do well to enroll QI ig X bf i fx H,U 13 1 Ft it N A fe: l 2-Q M, ,M vt A li E fl fu V N ll r tffffrvdl, 43- T 'Ee' VX X A in Zoo and Business Law instead of Art Ap- preciation, and Principles of Ethics ll. This, Mr. lchahod had no intention of doing. 7YVay back in the dim past of his first two years he had signed up for such outlandish subjects as Geology l, and Swimming, Advanced. He had no intention of letting himself in for similar labor in the future. The Ge-o course entailed the recognition of a number of different rocks, minerals, and stones-not to mention a work- able aequaintanceship with Darwin's principles of evolution, the swimming instructor had in- sisted that lVlr. lchabod devote from twenty to forty minutes of his life each day in hanging to the gutter of the pool in a futile flutter kick. Mr. lehabod liked neither rock nor Austra- lian crawl. As a matter of record, he once said that if all known rocks, minerals, etc., were placed end to end, it would probably be the Paleozoic Era, further, that he wouldn't care in the slightest. And as for the Australian crawl, it might be all right for the Australians, but he, for one, was glad he didnit have to live in Australia. But to get back to the situation: Mr. Master of Science persisted, Mr. lehabod persisted. Mr. lchabod enrolled in Art Appreciation and Principles of Ethics ll. Mr. Master of Science was not angry-just awfully, awfully hurt. ul'm sure that you would be wise to work to- ward filling your graduation requirernents, he murmured shyly, in a last desperate attempt to salvage something constructive from the wreckage of lchabod's program. 46By the wayfl said Mr. lehabod, HSpeaking of graduating, did you by chance attend the ceremonies in the Chapel last spring? Beauti- ful service. Caps, Gowns, Organ playing. Some fellow by the name of-now, what was his name-made an inspiring talk about going out into the world, and all that. Wonderful affair, l often wish I'd seen it myself . . . Now, you take Art Appreciation-there's a course l'm looking forward to. l mean, one feels the need for culture now and again. And so, as lVlr. lchabod later remarked, by the grace of God he finally got enrolled in those subjects which appealed to his love of culture, but all in all it was a rough go, and he made a mental note not to pick meek-looking faculty members in the future while enrolling. This was but the beginning of Mr. lehabod's conflict with the Administration. lt was only a moment, comparatively speaking, until he ran into a second snag. Mr. lchabod met his match at last, he met the new Treasurer. He marched into the sanctum of this rugged individual with an air of one who has come to confer upon the college, a medium-sized en- dowment. Sit downf' said Mr. Treasurer. Quite all rightf, Mr. lchabod answered breezily, feeling that he could stand up during the last few moments of this awful business of enrollment, now that it was practically over. lVlr. Treasurer looked up at lVlr. lchabod. He looked down at the assortment of papers which Mr. Iehabod had accumulated in running the gauntlet. '4Well?'7 he asked. It was at this moment that the first presenti- ment of his ultimate fate seized Mr. lehabod. It had been his intention to suffer the man a few routine remarks about paying the school a little money from time to time, sign whatever ff' S S -,nl E Mo WWC7, C J 4 , 3311, ,, 7 'i l I x t :oft f L rea l tt tv 'iff l f I L53 X 3X if 1-lk needed to be signed, and go on his way-but what was this? What did the man mean '4WELL?'i 4'Er, said Mr. lchabod. 'There passed then, some moments of silence in which Mr. Treasurer looked at Mr. lehabod with a stony glance. Mr. lehabod later told one of his 'friends that it was his belief that the man must have spent hours at 'E-'N V home before a mirror, practicing rocky stares. 'l'here were dollar signs in his eyes, stated lVlr. lchabod, firmly. After an indefinite time had elapsed, Mr. Treasurer relieved the situa- tion somewhat by asking his victim if he wished to make some special arrangements about handling his tuition. YVcll, yesg he guessed he did want to make some special arrangements regarding this process. How much could he pay? Did the materially- minded fellow mean NOW? K.- Yes, NOYV. NVell, ridiculous as it might seem, he found himself temporarily short of the ready cash, however, he supposed that within a few weeks- Hffhe total amount of your hill is thus-and-thus-and-so, spake Mr. Treasurer. 'fYou will pay one-fourth of this amount upon registration, and t.he remainder in three monthly installments. lVlr. lehabod found himself baffled. He could conjure up no imme- diate method of approaching this hard man of business, and appalling as the idea of digging up some cash this very day was, he had no alterna- livc. l-le went out the door in a daze, only to return almost at once, as inspiration came to him, to say- ul may have some money in a 'few days-'7 l-lnmph, said Mr. T. 'LNext!w The resultant embarrassment and succeeding obstacles which Mr. lchabod had to surmonnt to appease this money-grubber make for a long storyg suffice it to say that he found it necessary to find a job- a thing which he had in the past shunned as the plague-and to debase the lehabod pride to the extent of borrowing every cent he could from his friends, skeptical lot that they proved to he. But Mr. Ichahod found the money, and it was with almost his customary jauntiness that he flipped the exact amount of his initial tuition payment upon the counter of the business omce. eight days after the beginning of the term. Ah, cruel Fate! The proud name of lehabod was further lowered. The young woman at the desk informed him in matter-of-fact tones that there was a small charge of one dollar for late enrollment, and a further charge of one per-cent of something-or-other. qu.-.. ...yung If , 'rf YN lt cm fe 4 7 -fif- Qf' X Y Q fx Z' -Q:-, fx X DEAN ARTHUR SELLEN DEAN IRA PRATT FACULTY EXECUTIVES Dean Arthur G. Sellen's personal interest in the individual problems of each student establishes him firmly in the esteem of the VVashburn student body. After teaching classes in Biblical literature, he still Finds time to coordinate the college schedule, and suggest improvements in the policies and practices of the college to campus leaders. ln addition to his regular duties, Dean Sellen assists students in choos- ing majors and minors and advises graduates on suit- able careers. He admits that his interests are wide, although golf is his favorite hobby, and his absorbing interest in the mental hygiene movement occupies much of his time. A typical scene in Boswell Hall is aimable Dean lra Pratt conducting chapel choir, adeptly playing accompaniments for his students, or administering the business of the music department. His democratic attitude and his impartiality make him one of the most popular teachers on the campus. He struts in his gold braided uniform with the band on parade. Dean Pratt claims that he is a country gentleman now, since he moved out to his 'chobby house near Lake Shawnee. He drives to town early for seven o'clock band rehearsals and stays late for choir prac- tices, student recitals, and concerts. t 4. I Students are not so conscious of their dependence on these three faculty executives-A. R. Jones, Miss Gladys Phinney, and Miss Ella Pixley-as of the professors and teachers with Whom they have constant contact. Asstnning the duties of treasurer of Washburn last year upon the death of D. L. Mclfachron, Mr. Jones resigned early in the second semester to become a member of the state corporation commission. During his short tenure of otlice, he devised a systematic method of paying tuition in in- stallments throughout the semester. and offered a five percent discount for payment of tuition in full. To Mr. Jones was assigned the unpleasant t.ask of approving or disapproving requisites for expenditures from all departments of the college. Miss Phinney, serving her second year as registrar, continues her arduous task of compiling all the college records of enrollment and grades. Recommending and placing graduates as teachers, which for- merly caine under her supervision, was transferred to the education de- partment this year. Now completing her twenty-sixth year behind a desk in Holbrook hall, Miss Ella Pixley, secretary and assistant treasurer, has one of the most desirable positions on the campus-she receives all tuition pay- ments. The remodeled, modernized ollices of secretary and treasurer in Hol- brook allord lighter, more comfortable, and more convenient head- quarters lor their exacting work. By the careful liguring, and planning, and stringent use of college funds, Mr. Jones was able to give a favorable financial report of Wasli- burn at the beginning of this year, stating that its financial condition was the best in years. These three executives are excellent examples of behind-the-scenes workers, necessary to keep business matters running smoothly, but taking no direct part in the administration of affairs. The quiet elliciency and dependability, which characterize their daily service help to carry on the supervision of the business of the college and regulation of school activities.

Attending Yvashburn for a period ol four years has meant more to us than mere learning from books. lt has meant the strengthening of ideals and the renewal of ambitions-some of which we hope can be realized. Vife have learned the best principles of leadership by belonging to and holding olhces in the various organizations. These experiences have stimulated and influenced our personalities. In leisure hours, and in extra-curricular activities, we have learned the pleasure and value of co- operating with others. Leisure is our big problem. We spend our leisure time at shows, drinking cokes, and in bull sessions. What Washburn needs is a student union building or an informal room where students could spend a part of their leisure time talking and studying together as a WashlJu1'i1 group and not as a social or class group. The trophy room in the field house would be suitable for such a lounge if it were equipped with some comfortable chairs, wood logs for the fire- place, and sports made available in the gym. Perhaps this idea might be worked out as a class project, as a suggestion from us seniors who, alter four years at Washburn, are beginning to realize only vaguely the incalculable learning, both factual and practical, which the typical col- lege offers.

LIFE THE JUNIOR OPINION . . . Leisure, leading and learning are three primary functions of any modern plan of living. All three of these unecessitiesw are interrelated and for the best results in a successful plan of life, must be integrated into a whole. Leisure is something we desire when we are engulfed in the mad scramble of 20th century life and something we realize as hollow and barren when all time is available for leisure. The desire of youth of today at Washburn as well as else- where is a mean between the two extremes. Washburn at present is on a Hlimping standard of leisure, some students have too much leisure and some not enough. This can be blamed on no one thing, however, an adjustment must be made by both the faculty and the student body in the inter- ests of all concerned. We believe We have leaders but we donit encourage their development. We are trying to do too many things and as a result are doing none very Well. We, the juniors, suggest that the number of activities be reduced, and the ones remaining be worthwhile and commanding of respect. Learning, in the stringent sense, must be allotted just time and adequate reward. Remove learning from the realm of the prosaic by issuing the indicative marks only in accordance with the highest grading standards. On the Whole, learning at WHShbU1'l1 is proceeding in a constructive and modern man- ner, but some departments forget that success in life, eco- nomically or educationally demands more than being stuffed on one subject. Certain departments are prone to npile on such extensive assignments that if the student does the work with any degree of efficiency at all, he has no time for other studies which are necessary for a well-rounded education. More time, or less onerous assignments is the only solu- tion to the problem. Time remains constant, so certain de- partments must acquiesce. Learning, the most important of all phases of college life, is a dillicult and intricate process. It is for learning that the majority of students will sacrifice and labour to attend Washburn, for the students realize that through learning, success in later life will be enhanced.

THE SOPHOMCDRE OPINION . . . lVith no spotlight on us as green freshmen, or deference paid us as worldly-wise upperclassmen, we sophomores have had a good chance to look around this year. That is what we have done and we have found out some remarkable things about Vlfashburn and have some definite opinions about cer- tain things. There is one thing that we have deplored since the first day of our freshman year and are still deploring at the close of our second year. That is the fact that there are too many activities at lVashburn. There are all kinds of clubs, sports, social and departmental activities at Washburn. The trouble is, however, not in the number of activities, but in the number of people who get in clubs and then forget about them. lVe are urged, because it is a small school and everyone knows every- one elsc, to be in everything we can and as a result we do not do justice to the few things that are important. It is our opinion that, in order to promote leadership on lVashburn campus, either there should be fewer clubs and organizations on the campus or that membership quali- fications should be so high that only a chosen few who will work for the organization may be members. The lack of cooperative spirit at Washburn is the most out- standing fault of the student body. We have supported the athletic contests more heartily this year, but we have not sup- ported anything else. Parties and varsities are only a partial success and that is only because our younger brothers and sisters in high school like college dances. lf the students would only realize that if they would cooperate and show a little support and spirit, Washburn would be a aswell school. ln order not to sound too Hsour-grapish about the spirit at W'ashburn, may we add that we think the friendliness among the students and the faculty is the finest thing in the world. At no other school are the students so friendly in their relationships to each other and to the faculty.

We Freshmen believe that Washburn deserves praise lor her campus friendliness and her democratic spirit. Freshmen as well as upper class- men are included in the friendly greetings of the student body. With her extra-curricular activities adapted to all types of individuals, Wasli- burn aids in the developing of well-rounded personalities. W'ashburn means a great deal to us as a source of learning. lVith her competent and friendly faculty, the acquiring of knowledge is not o11ly a privilege but a pleasure. Her picturesque campus adds to the enjoy- ment of learning. Learning is, or at least should be, because of the strict requirements and rigid enforcement of them, of a particularly beneficial nature. With so many schools devoting rnost of their time to developing outside ac- tivities, Wrashburn has truly remained an institution of learning. YVith guidance, it should be able to become an even more renowned source of education-factual education. Sixty-seven per cent of the students are employed. The evening hours of leisure which the majority of students have together, could be arranged to suit all, if a better program for all school functions were established. The objective would be to bring about more cooperation between those students having many hours of leisu1'e and those having few, and to form a new system of staging evening school affairs. At the end of our freshman year at Vlfashburn, we consider it a privi- lege to sing her praises and we shall continue to do so for years to come. LIFE SCHOOL OF LAW The W3ShlJUl'l1 College School of Law was organized in l.903. From its inception it has been one of the professional departments of 'Washburn College. The primary purpose of Washburn College School of Law is to educate young men and women for the successful practice of the law in all of the state and federal courts. To this end it seeks to develop in its students, among other things, a thorough knowledge of the fun- damental principles of law and equity, includ- ing their historical development and the reasons that underlie them, a thorough knowledge of court procedure, including the preparation of legal documents and the trial of cases, both civil and criminal, legal methods of reasoning and legal habits of thought and researchg intel- lectual power and acumen, and a high sense of honor and professional duty. The faculty is composed of four full time professors, who devote all of their time to the work of the school, and judges and lawyers who are familiar with the practice of the law in all its phases. The student thus has the constant opportunity for guidance and advice from men who are accessible at all times of the day, and the inspiration which comes from contact with men engaged in actual practice and public life. Yvashburn College School of Law is a mem- ber of the Association of American Law Schools and is governed by the constitution and rules of that Association. lt is also on the approved list of the American Bar Association. The law library of the law school is known as the Greenwood Law Library, and contains l1L,61L0 volumes. The location of the Law School in Topeka also renders available the Kansas State Library. lt is a library of over 150,000 volumes, and contains all the reports and statutes and digests of every state in the union. besides all the English and Canadian reports, legal magazines and periodicals, and recent and standard treatises and text-books both English and American. The State Library is available to the students of the Law School at all times. There is also at Topeka the valuable Library of the Kansas Historical Society, and the Topeka Public Library. All of these are open to the students of the Law School. With over 300,000 volumes al their disposal the students have ample facilities for study and research. At the beginning of each semester the stu- dents of the Law School elect a president and other officers to serve during that semester in their respective ollices. The work of the presi- dent is to plan Law School luncheons, Bench and Bar proms, secure speakers for assemblies, and plan other outside activities. William Rees of Topeka was elected president for the first semester and Arthur White of Clay Center was elected president the second semester. Chief Justice John S. Dawson and Judge Horner Hoch of the Kansas Supreme Court, Tom Collins of Kansas City, Barton Grillith, and Clayton Kline of Topeka were some of the out- standing speakers secured for assemblies and luncheons. The following students passed the bar in February, and are now engaged in the active practice of law: Mr. and Mrs. Charles Cheap, Bert Collard, Charles Fleming, Johnnie Franks, lVlark Garlinghouse, Ned Gilbert, Lorenzo Grant, Frank Hedrick, Donald Higby, Cecil Miller, Ed Rooney, Fred Rooney, and Robert YVilson. The following students plan to take the bar in June: Robert Allen, Cecil Arens, Wi1'1- ston Armstrong, Paul Balding, Frank Barbee, John Berglund, Geoffrey Carlisle, Charles Clark, Dewain Delp, Alexander Fromme, lVlilburn Geist, Shelley Graybill, Robert Guier, John Haney Leland Harvey, Charles Heilman, Laur- ence Holmes, Clair Hyter, Robert lrwin, Gale Krouse, Gladys Mathews, Gifford May, For- rest lVlcDavid, Allan Peterson, Edwin Pile, Wm.

His slmggiiig at fraternity parties and par golf games are a far cry from his classroom lectures. His whole-hearted interest in the school and pro- fessional eareers of each of his students makes him a friend to be desired.

NVhen Kenny Murrow accepted the ollice of president of the junior class he was unaware of the headache he would get over managing the Junior-Senior prom. Tom Mix, president of the senior class, is still collecting money for graduation announcements. The student body of W3ShbU1'H is governed by a representative body, the student council. It is composed of representatives from each organization and class. Officers are: Bob Wilson, presidentg Elizabeth Brigham, vice-presidentg Rowena May, secretaryg Ken- neth lVlurrow, treasurerg Kenneth Wagner, faculty representative. Much consideration was given this year to the political situation on the W'ashburn campus. An attempt was made to take student government out of politics. The council voted to do away with the former method of holding elections in favor of a nominating council composed of ten presidents of the Greek and Independent organ- izations. This is to be followed by a primary and general elections in the desire to do away with political combines. The newly organized W'ashburn band captured a great deal of the spotlight this year. A dance manager was appointed and the money formerly used for varsities was given to buy uniforms for the band. The traditional Hobo Day was replaced with a Homecoming cele- bration that would be a fitting background for the first appearance JACK YOCUM EVELYN PRICE KENNY MURROW TOM MIX ' 54 of the band at the Homecoming game. A parade consisting of floats entered from every organization on the campus was held. BOB WILSON Members of the student council this year were: Bob Allen, Eliza- beth Brigham, Bill Buckles, Elizabeth Carton, Margaret Grandeen, Lois Hall, Betty Hope, Tom Mix, Kenny Murrow, Evelyn Price, Helen Shideler, Grace Louise Skeen, Audrey Smith, Bill Townsend, Bessie Mae Wills, Earl Woolley, Glen Yankee, ,lack Yocum. President Bob Wilson has served the council and the school well this year. A member of Phi Alpha Delta fraternity, he is excep- tionally democratic and conscientious. Party affiliations were for- gotten when he stepped into oflice. Bob passed the Bar in January but he has continued in his Law studies.

Rosemary Young, as editor, and Charles Davis, as business manager, headed a staff of industrious and enthusiastic workers. During the year many complications occurred which made the realization of a 1939 Kaw seem very remote. ,lohn Shuart, as organization editor, and Doris Miller, as feature edi- tor were invaluable in their executive positions. Margaret Holford and Pat Nordeen, associate class editors, patiently performed their rather uninteresting duties of compiling routine information. Kay Houseworth, staff secretary, was unusually willing to call meet- ings and type copy. Carl Houseworth and Jim Reed wrote consistently good copy as law school representative and sports editor. Bob Currie's cartoons throughout the book are noticeably superior. Other members of the staff who cooperated willingly in writing copy and selling adds were: Paul Breitweiser, Bee Johnston, Betty Hope, De- lores Holman, Martha .lane Gammon, Betty ,lean Heller, Maxine Delaney, Nancy Cunningham, Mary Campbell, Andrea Marshall, Bob Hemphill, Charles Marling, Barbara Stafford and Kenny Murrow. REVIEW j Editor, GENE POGGEMEYER Manager, JOHN SHUART Week after week, the editor and business manager of the Review, campus newspaper, write copy, chase ads, plan make-up, and grow gray. Gene Poggemeyer is the eliicient editor who always has a Wisecrack to hide his furrowed brow. Business manager, John Shotsky7' Shuart de- livers Reviews Friday mornings aided by his pipe and Ford roadster. nljoggeyi' and Shotsky': still have thrilling tales to relate of their so- journ to the journalism convention at Cleveland. The reporting staif of the Review is made up of ambitious young stu- dents enrolled in the journalism 25 class. Their work is done under the very great handicaps of ancient desks and typewriters. Each cub reporter is assigned a run at the beginning of the year which he is required to cover weekly. He is urged to exercise his nose for news in every phase of campus activity. Reporters keep a string sheet of all their articles. This serves as a basis for their journalism grade. Rex Thomas, news editor, is a familiar figure in the Review two chairn oliice, where he reads proof and revises copy. Bob Hemphill is a faith- ful contributor of clever, satirical, articles, Poggelneyer, Shuart, and Thomas work far into Thursday night making last minute revisions in Friday's Review. i w t Colburn Zimmerman Buckles Miller Turner The Publications Board of Control is com- posed of three members of the student body, chosen by popular vote of the students in the school election held in the spring of each year, and two faculty members appointed by the ad- ministration of the school. Student members of the Board this year were Janett Miller, Bill Buckles, and Art Turner. Faculty advisors were Professors Colburn and Zimmerman. ,lanett Miller served as secretary of the Board. The purpose of the Board of Publications is to act in an advisory capacity for the benefit of the two publications on the Washburn campus, the Kaw, yearbook, and the Review, weekly newspaper. The Board does not attempt to dic- tate to the editors or business managers of these publications but merely attempts to supervise their methods and policies. The business man- agers are expected to give a monthly report of the financial status of their publications to the Board. The editors are often asked to sit in on meetings and inform the Board of progress made. PUBLICATIONS BOARD OF CONTROL One of the chief duties of the Board of Pub- lications is to select the editors and the busi- ness managers of the Kaw and Review for the succeeding year. This selection is made from that group of students applying for the respec- tive positions for which the students themselves feel that they are best fitted. The choice is made only after careful consideration of the students' scholastic standing, character, and general ability, and on the basis of work done on the publication in the preceding year. The Publications Board have selected Rex Thomas and Betty Warren as editor and busi- ness manager oif the Review. Paul Breitweiser and Chester Anderson will edit the Kaw next year. In May, the Publications Board give a formal dinner in honor of the retiring editors and business managers. At this time experiences of the year past and suggestions for the year to come are discussed. Whether the Board of Publications has been a success this year may be judged by the merits of this book and also by the weekly publications of the Washburn Review. PRESS CLUB Press Club is a campus organization whose purpose is to encourage writing and journalism interest among Washburn students. All beginning journalism students are required to qualify for membership by having fifty-two inches of copy printed in the Washburn Review. To retain membership after the first semester, budding journalists must write a column of material for the Review each semester. The highlight of the Press club year is the banquet given in the spring in honor of the retiring and in-Coming editors and business managers. The uncensored program is delight- ful in its pitiless satirisms of both fellow students and faculty members. Here free speech has its day. Gene Poggemeyer, editor of the Review, was president of Press Club this year. Fred Zimmerrnan, professor of jour- nalism, is the faculty sponsor of the group.

Noah, the first major production, was presented in November. It was a nheavyv drama based on a religious theme. The leads were carried by Allan Peterson and Mary Vlfashburn. The animals were portrayed very well and the costumes and scenery were unique. Three one-act plays were presented in January. They were quite different in style but all were entertaining. The first, uTrysting Placef, was directed by Mary Vlfashburn. Ruth Kellner directed Bound East For Cardissf' The third, 'QA Pound of Fleshf, was supervised by Susanne Smith. The directing and acting were superior in each play. The second major play was given in February. HThc Amazing Doctor Clitterhousen was a mystery drama with many humorous lines. Leading roles were carried by Tom Mix and Elizabeth Garten. The third major production was '4Bachelor's Honeymoon? Richard Taylor played thc role of Mr. Bachelor and Lillian Williamson portrayed his wife. 64- Washburn boasts of one of the few courses offered for marionette credit in the country. It is open to upper class- men and graduates. The entire productions are conceived, constructed, costumed and staged by this class. Dr. Arthur D. Gray, Topeka specialist, began the work as a hobby in his home, ten years ago. The interest evi- dcnccd in the art at that time by Dr. Gray's friends prompted Dr. King to invite him to bring the work to Washburn and include it in the curriculum. The program offered to the public for six perforniances in the Little Theater this year was an adaptation of the play The Prince Who Learned Everything From Books. The yearly productions have been carried to audiences through the middle west by the Vifashburn Puppeteers. This group is made up of student operators who travel with elaborate portable equipment. Those who have worked with the traveling unit this year are: Jack Lee, Rowena May, Catherine Cauthers, Mary Washburn, ,lune Crook, Diantha Beauchamp, Mrs. Millard Bryan and Mr. Bryan who is director of the marionette work. MUSIC lleiulrickson Borck Savage Lammcrs The a capella choir includes only religious music in its programs. One chapel program during the year is devoted to choir music. At this time members are given an opportunity for solo Work. This spring Dean Pratt took mem- bers of the choir on a singing tour to several Kansas towns. The oliicers for the year 1938-1939 are as follows: president, Fred Worrallg secretary, Beth Fullerg librarian, Robert Sandersg social chairman, Patricia Strawng keeper of the robes, Mary Wfashburn. The director, Ira Pratt, dean of the music school, for many years has been prominent in Topeka as director of various musical organizations. The chapel choir is a tradition at Washburn as well as one of its outstanding organizations Washburn chapel choir has developed into an excellent amateur group this year, although many of the voices were inexperienced and practice schedules were badly crowded. The excellent opportunity it affords for those who wish the chance to sing in such an organization is the only one of its kind at Washburn. There are nearly thirty members in this choir which was organized to sing at chapel pro- grams. Occasionally they receive invitations sing at nearby towns lor special programs, or for regular church services. The members are determined by trying out with the director, Dean lra Pratt. Besides receiving valuable ex- perience through singing in the choir, sopho- mores, juniors, and seniors may receive one credit hour for attending the three practices during the week.

CHAPEL CHGIR The new Washburn band, in its flashy uni- forms, has done more than any other organiza- tion this year to inspire the rising tide of Wash- burn spirit. Organized early this fall by Dean lra Pratt and .lack Savage, drum major, the band has been the students, pet project, being supported by their enthusiasm and their semester allow- ances. lts first public appearance, at the coronation of the Homecoming queen and in the Home- coming parade, inaugurated an active season of appearances, The band sponsored a benefit dance on XVZlSl'llJll1'l1 Day this winter to replace the annual athletic banquet. About a dozen boys selected from the band personnel furnished excellent music for the dancers and the floor show. The snappy blue and white uniforms have added much to the popularity and dignity of the band. Stanley Riddle Van Ness Color guards John Warren, Al Knight, John Sherman, and Terrell Spencer led the band on parades. Paul Borck has served as president of the band this year, other officers are Bob Hend- rickson, vice-president, and Patricia Nordeen, secretary. Dean Pratt is director, assisted by Savage. The YV:-tshburn college orchestra, directed by Professor Paul Hansen, gave a successful con- cert this spring in lVIacVicar chapel. Handi- capped by lack of practice periods, the members did a fine job of playing both classical and lighter compositions with apparent ease. The string trio and brass quartette organized by Dean Pratt are often asked to play on school programs. Members of the trio are Betty Van Ness, Marcia Riddle, and Elizabeth Stanley. The brass quartette is composed of Walt Lam- mers, Bob Borck, Jack Savage and Bob Hend- rickson. BAND QLHLL CLUB Ora Mae Ready Fred Zimmerman ,Iannett Miller Dr. Van Schock lVlargaret Peterson Betty Lou Ufford Betty Warren ,W , ,Y, , , Peggy Ralston One of the most eminent clubs on the campus is Wynn Rune chapter of the American College Quill club, established at Washburn in 1921. A national professional organization for men and women interested in crea- tive writing, Quill has Runes in eleven colleges and universities, five of which are located in Kansas. Parchment, official national magazine published by Quill three times a year, accepts contributions from all American writers, whether or not they are members of Quill. The club conducts an annual literary con- test, alternating each year between short stories and poetry. This con- test is open to anyone who wishes to submit a manuscript. Wynn Rune has two tryouts a year, one in the fall and one in the spring. Two original manuscripts of 1500 Words each are required for entrance in the club with the acceptance of the chapter. Any type of literary Work is accepted, but no journalistic writing can be submitted. Meetings are held on the first and third Wedliesdays of each month. At this time original manuscripts by the members are read by the authors and criticized by the group. Since its beginning in l92l, WyI'1Il Rune has initiated 209 people into membership of Quill. Four of thc twenty charter members of Quill are: Dr. Chas. M. Sheldon, author of mln His Stepsgi' Angelus T. Burch, editor of the Cleveland Press, Miss Charlotte M. Leavitt, and J. Frederic Zimmerman. The present officers include: .lanett Miller, Chancellor, J. Frederic Zimmerman, Vice-Chancellor, Louise Kent, Wardexi of the Purse, Audrey Smith, Scribeg and Rex Thomas, Keeper of the Parchments. Newly initiated members this year are Dr. Elisabeth Van Schaack, Betty Warreli, Charles Simmons, Jo Fineman, One Mae Ready, Alice Jean Tanner, Irene France, Roberta Robertson, and Georgia May Fiederling. Other members of Quill on the campus are Dr. P. P. Womer, Prof. H. J. Colburn, Miss Leavitt, Charles Heilman, Betty Lou Uiford, Stanley Wilson, Margaret Peterson, Bill Conaway, and Martha Stewart. While Delta Phi Delta cooperates with the art department in all of its activities, the annual Beaux Arts Ball is its chief interest. This year Father Neptune tDean Hambleton plus a dust-mop board and a pitch- fork tridentj reigned over the creature of the briney depths at the Deep Sea Doodle Ball with a very majestic air. Millard Bryan and Robert Larter, were not quite so careful to maintain the dignity merited by their titles of chief judges. Judge Larter was so busy blasting away on his sea shell that he didn,t notice when Bryan set fire to his beard-also of the dust mop variety. ln between pranks, the honorable gentlemen helped Father Neptune decide which of the timmy tribe were the most splendiforous. 'Twasn't an easy job to decide among the turtles, fish, pirates, Popeye, Olive Oyl, and a most amusing jelly Hsh, but after much dispute, Mrs. John Leland was awarded the title of Lady Doodler, with a bowl of gold fish. Mr. Lee Cox was dubbed Gentleman Doodler and given a pretty red lobster. Louise Kent and Eugene Jemison received the degree for the most spectacular pair, along with two tins of sardines. And then there were the Sirens and the Sailors who gave us Orchesis' version of the fate of poor Achilles and his crew who simply couldn,t resist the charms of those wicked sirens of the sea. All in all, you can see that a good time was had by allf' Now we merely stand and wait until another year, another ball, and worse yet-another batch of murals to be painted. But we like it just the same. Only students who have proved their professional ability and who have attained the required scholastic standing are eligible for membership in Delta Phi Delta. Meetings are held on alternate Tuesdays in Mulvane Art Museum. Oflicers this year were: Pauline Banker, president, Martha Grandeen, vice-presidentg Suzanne Smith, Secretary, Dorothy Cook, treasurer, Margaret Crandeen, social chairman, Ruth Howe, publicity chairman.

Professor Frank Spencer Kenyon came to Washburn as head of the piano department in the School of Music in September, 1919, and re- mained a productive and inspiring member of the faculty until he was struck down by illness in August, 1933. He died on April 14, 1939. To most students during those years, Professor Kenyon was known pri- marily as an unusually gifted pianist, Many who had thought of good music as something dull or forever beyond their understanding found in his brilliant playing a revelation of a new richness which their lives might have. To those who had the privilege of working under his direction in musi- cal organizations or who studied with him, he brought a broadening com- prehension of his devotion to the best in music and his excellent taste in all the arts. His pupils showed the result of his patient and sympathetic leaching. At most of the faculty receptions which opened those years, Professor and Mrs. Kenyon were stationed just inside the doors of Benton Hall. For many students and faculty members, the warmth and sincerity of the welcome they gave came to symbolize much of the best in the social life of the college. Their genuine interest in the Well-being of students meant a great deal to many who found within their hospitable doors a second home. Professor Kenyorfs piano is stilled, but its strings will continue to vibrate in the memories of many students and faculty members who esteemed him as artist, teacher, and friend. vmnriam SIGMA ALPHA loTA s i , ' E4 -Jon: 75 fn kg Membership in this national professional music fraternity for Women is based on high scholastic standing, faculty recommendation, and above ull, unusual talent and the desire to carry on the ideals and maintain the standards of the national organization. Sigma Alpha Iota was founded as a national fraternity at the Univer- sity of Michigan. Theta chapter at Washburn was installed in 1903. This was the first national fraternity on the campus. Each year the local chapter contributes much to the college functions in presenting musical programs. The scholarship fund, awarded an- nually to a sophomore woman of marked musical ability, has been suc- cessfully maintained and increased. Recently, three S.A.I. members were elected to membership in honor societies. Mu Alpha Pi, honorary music society, elected Jane Baird, who has served as president of S.A.l. this year. Marie Shumate, secretary, was initiated into Tau Delta Pi, scholastic society and lo-Anne Wright, treasurer, was elected to Pi Gamma Mu, honorary social science fra- ternity. Mrs. Paul M.

Each year this group Ends a different theme, the component of which is some relationship, ac- tivity, organ-ization, or individual that needs assistance in some way. Nonoso is instrumental every year in assisting through Washburn a number of girls who could not otherwise stay in college. Besides a regu- larlscholarship, Nonoso sets aside each year a portion of its money which, under the administration of Miss Jessie Dean, is used to purchase neces- sities for deserving girls. At this time the members are working to establish a permanent scholar- ship fund, the interest from which will provide one scholarship a year. The fund and plan is to mature by 1940. The members active this year, led by Willette Price as president, are: Emma Marie Shumate, Betty Lou Ufford, Rowena May, Janet Miller, ,lo Anne Wright, Martha Grandeen, Helen Shideler, and Margaret Crandeen. Miss Wright acted as social chairman and Miss May as secretary-treas urer. The organization was founded in 1917. Its charter members were Hazel Jones, Margaret Webb, Isabel Savage, Violett Crumbine, Flora Harring- ton, and Mabel Langhart. There are 180 living members all of whom are kept in contact with occasionally. Called to membership in Nonoso this spring for unusual qualities of leadership, scholarship and character, and service to the school are: Bonnie ,lean Stephens, Helen lserman, Betty Elden, ,lean lhinger, Betty Warren, Jean Miley, and Audrey Smith.

The organization derives its name from an Indian tribe, and its ritual follows the Indian folklore. It was the custom for the chiefs to choose the most capable braves each year to lead the tribe during the following year. In the same manner, the active members of Sagamore choose junior men of high scholastic standing, marked leadership, and commendable character, to represent Vifashlnurn as its leaders. Membership in this organization is a distinct honor for it means recognition of unseliish service to the College. And so on this day, in the traditional fashion, the most highly honored stu- dents of Wasliliurn are selected to participate in the annual ceremony. At this time one honorary member from the faculty is also chosen. Members chosen this year are: John Shuart, Eugene Poggemeyer, and Norman Sanneman of the junior classg Charles Davis, Arthur Turner, Jim Sperling, Joe Mohler, and Roland Crabtree of the Law School. A. R. Jones and Dee Erickson from the faculty. Bob Wilsori served as Presi- dent of the organization during the past year. Honorary faculty members of Sagamore include: Dr. Philip C.

PI KAPPA DELTA Twenty-five years ago a few delegates met at Ottawa, Kansas, and or- ganized the largest forensic fraternity in the world. Pi Kappa Delta, even though it was the last of the three national honorary forensic fra- ternities to be organized, is now the largest. The third charte1', Kansas Beta, was issued to YVashburn College in 1915. It now has 150 chapters in thirty-five states and Puerto Rico. Wiashburn has endeavored to maintain the high standards of this hon- orary forensic fraternity. Last year the Kansas Beta chapter was chosen as the host of the National Convention. This year the forensic activities have included trips to Oklahoma City, Denver, Colorado, and Marys- ville, Missouri. One of the most recent trends in speech development has been the Stu- dent Legislature, a system pioneered by Vvashburn College. On December 8, 9, and 10, the Student Legislative Assembly again convened in the Kansas House of Representatives with many colleges and Universities present. Here, college men and women discussed and debated the most important national legislative questions. The enthusiasm for this type of convention has been great here as well as elsewhere. This yearas ac- tivities were closed by the provincial tournament in Ottawa. The Kansas Beta officers are: president, Stanley Wilson, vice-president, Betty ,lane Vlfarreng SGCIYCIZITY-tfCHSl1l'C1', ,lim McLain. The active members are: ,lanett Miller, Betty Jane Wa1'ren, Jim Mc- Lain, Royal Gordon, Art Wllite, Bill Townsend, Roland Crabtree, Bob Allen, Bob Griee, Howard Harper, Stanley Wilson, Georgia Wells, Shelley Graybill. Faculty members are: Professor G. S. Fulbright, Pro- fcssor J. H. Foth, Professor Bertram Maxwell, and Professor Kenneth Wagner. N54- First Row-McEntire, Marshall, M.

Instead of following a central theme this year, the Y.W.C.A. developed a well-rounded program around four vital topics. The iirst subject Personalities included a student discussion in chapel on College-So What. The aim of the Y.W.C.A. to vitalize religion on the campus was realized by talks on the meaning of Christmas, Thanks- giving, and Lent under the heading Reinterpreting Religion? A third series of talks on Inter-racial Friendship was given in co-ordination with the group on uWorld Wide Relationsfi The latter subject included acl- dresses by Benjamin C. Marsh on European affairs and Miss Alice Hug- gins, missionary to China, on problems in that country. Work and fun were combined in the members' attempt to raise the budget. Willett Price and Bernice Draut, co-finance chairmen, planned mixers, drives, and bridge benefits in an effort to balance the budget.

It has been the desire of the organization to help students to orient them- selves to college life in a spirit of cooperation. ln planning its programs the Y.M.C.A. has tried to place before its members pertinent questions of the day as well-known speakers see them. Each September the Y.lVl. and the Y.W. have their all-school mixer so that new students may become acquainted and other students may re- new friendships.

Le Cercle Francais, more commonly known as French Club, is com- posed of students who enjoy uparlez-vousing so much that they hold meetings twice monthly, one a luncheon and the other a dinner. At this time they practice speaking French. This year meetings have been held alternately in Miss Gertrude Ulll11Lll1,S class room and in the homes of the members. Although, since the club is striving for the ability to converse readily in French, the uofiiciall' language spoken at all meetings is French, a hit of English now and then creeps in-perhaps, to clear up the French. However, it is always in French that the plays are given, the songs sung, the talks made, and the games played. Miss Gertrude Ullman, a new member of the faculty this year, has served as sponsor of the club. Her extensive travels provide many inter- esting slories, and her understanding makes misplaced accents much less embarrassing. Ono of the most interesting meetings of the year was the one at which she entertained the group with a St. Patrick's Day dinner. Menus the shape of shamrocks were printed in French. During the dinner French songs were sung, and after dinner a short program of in- formal reports upon topics of current interest in France were given. Anagrams played with French words proved a real test of vocabulary. Meetings this year were planned by ,lo-Anne Wright, president. One of the special features which she introduced was the use of vividly colored posters to announce the topics of coming meetings. Deciding that the only male member of the group fboth this year and lastl should he given some notice, the club this year elected Crifllth Coombs vice-president. Mary Ellen Cone served as secretary and treasurer. FRENCH CLUB FEMININE CCMMENTS Dance Orchestras . . . My favorites are Benny Goodman, Jan Savitt, Artie Shaw. Necking . . . lVl-in-m-in-fun!

BARNEY BARNETT DEE ERRICKSON ELMER HOLM JOHN FRANK THE C-AME JOE MOHLER LEROY MASSEY Co-Captains After the most disastrous football. season in the annals of Washburn athletic history, the lchabods staged a right-about-face last autumn and not only won six out of nine games, but were unbeaten, untied, and un- scored on in the lVlissouri Valley confer- ence. Washburn opened its season with Baker University and white-washed the Wildcats, 34 to 0. It was the largest score rolled up by the Ichabods since 1919 when the Blues swamped St. Marys, 40 to 7. The Baker win was the first time in 14 starts that the Ichabods had tasted victory and the triumph was the Ichabods' iirst lap down the trail to gridiron glory. E. C. Quigley, dean of Missouri Valley sports officials, was injured in the game and has been on FOOTBALL the sidelines since. Washburn led in first downs, 14 to 3, in yards gained from scrimmage, 268 to 68g in yards gained by passes, 92 to 10. The lchabods spotted Emporia State one touchdown in the first seven minutes of play before they rallied to score their first victory over the Hornets since 1935. The score was 19 to 6. Washburn trailed in first downs, 7 to 11g was behind on yards gained from scrimmage, 128 to 138, but led in yards gained from passes, 98 to 74. In a game that might have been rougher -they might have used black jacks and brass knuckles -Washburn was trampled by Kansas, 14 to 58. The Ichabods caught the Jayhawks after the latter had been pulverized by Notre Dame. K.U. drew 134 yards of penalties and Washburn 81. Kansas led in Hrst downs, 13 to 10, in yards gained from scrimmage, 207 to 81, and in yards gained from passes, 319 to 154. In a contest marred by ten fumbles, the lchabods bounced back after their Kansas defeat to blank Colorado State, 20 to 0. Washburn outgained the Coloradoans, 172 to 911' yards, led' in yards gained from aerials, 109 to 99, and scored 11 first downs to nine for the Westerners. The following week, the Ichabods, anti- aircraft guns jammed while Wichita's smooth working machine clicked on all eleven cylinders to spoil Washburn's homecoming, 35 to 6. It was the first Wicliitzi win over Washburn in Moore Bowl since Al Cebert, present Wichita coach, took over the Shocker reins in 1930. Washburn's new band made its initial ap- pearance, Miss Ruth Tobias was crowned queen, and the game was played amid the brilliance and color of a Hollywood pre- miere. Wichita chalked up 11 first downs to WHSl1bl11'Il,S 8, led in yards gained from scrimmage, 372 to 123, while the lchabods led in yards gained from passes, 56 to 418. Still burning from the spanking suffered at the hands of Wichita, the lchabods journeyed to Stillwater and scored their first Victory in history over the Oklahoma A. 81 M. Cowboys. 'cKayo,' Emmotis cofiin- corner punts sent the Cowboys riding to- ward boot hill. Washburn led in first downs in the lVlissouri Valley game., 6 to 4g gained 136 yards from scrimmage to the Aggies' 125, and led in yards gained from passes, 63 to 24. Washburn had a clean slate in confer- ence play after beating Grinnell, 6 to 0, the following week-end, uIke Brady's 59 yard run accounted for the only score. The lchabods set the pace in yards gained from scrimmage, 169 to 83, in yards gained from aerials 153 to 67, and in first downs, 12 to 7. ' On the following Saturday, Kansas State's rolling pin offense flattened Wash- burn like a pie crust, 41 to 14.

The draperies dropped on the season Thanksgiving Day with Wvashhurn whipping St. Marys of San Antonio, 33 to 20. The victory avenged the 13 to 51 spanking suffered at San Antonio a year before. At Texas the temperature was in the high nineties while last fall's game was played in freezing weather. Wasli- lmurn led in first downs, 15 to 53 in yards gained 328 to 74, but trailed in yards gained from passes, 104 to 162.

Sanneman led the Blue scoring with nine points. I Opening their home campaign, tl1e lchabods let little lka Em- rich, Emporia State forward, out of their sight for a minute and he bagged ten rapid-fire points to pace the Hornets in a 47 to 41-3 victory over the W'ashburnites. Ostmeyer paced Wasburn with l3 points. In the annual all-college tournament held at Oklahoma City over the holidays, VVashburn broke even in four games. The Ichabods trounced Oklahoma Baptist, 35 to 18, edged past North- western Techers, 26 to 25, lost to VVarrensburg, winner of the tournament, 415 to 22, and to Edmond Teachers, 28 to 32. Grinnell, playing its last game here as a member of the Missouri Valley conference, jumped into an early lead and was never headed. The Pioneers spanked the lchabods, 45 to 27. Amsbaugh with nine points and Ostmeyer with eight led the lxfashburn scoring. After being bottled up for 37 minutes by Washhu1'n's sticky- fingered defense, the Drake Bulldogs popped the cork just in time to capture the important valley game. Mackey again was high point man with nine points. Vlfashburn outhustled Tulsa to avenge its earlier defeat and to give the Blue their second valley triumph, 35 to 31. Emmot had 10 points. 5 BASKETBALL r I l George Clark Kaye Emmet Cordon Lowry Emmot's 11 points kept the Blue in the ball game at Grinnell, but a big second half gave the Pioneers the 46 to 35 win. An Ichabod rally fell one point short when Washington Uni- versity played here and the Bears won, 45 to 44. Clark sparked Washburn's late scoring spurt. Mackey scored 11 points. After trailing three points at the intermission, Washburn fell before St. Louis, 33 to 43. Mackey was high scorer with eight points. Far oil shooting form the following night, the Iehabods were buried by Washirigtoil, 40 to 19. Out of 27 attempts in the first half the Topekans bagged but two goals from the field. The high lchabod scorer was Amsbaugh wih seven points. The lchabods blanked the St. Louis Billikens from the Iield during the last half to win their initial valley fray, 30 to 21. The Blue defense was stronger. Sanneman personally accounted for 13 of the points. In a rough and ragged contest, W3Shbl11'I1 bowed to Creighton, 29 to 36. The Jays led 16 to 15 at the halftime and stepped up their defense in the last stanza. Mackey rolled in 13 points. The defending champion Oklahoma Aggies breezed past the lchabods 41 to 26 to win their 34th straight home game. Mackey and Ostmeyer tallied six points each. In a foul game at Tulsa, W'ashburn lost to the Golden Hur- ricane, 20 to 34. Thirty-eight fouls were tacked on the lchabods and only four players could be mustered by 'GDee', Erickson to finish the game Amsbaugh and Ostmeyer led the Blue scoring with five points apiece. The University of Kansas Jayhawks scored their 22nd win over Washbiirn in 24 games since the rivalry was born in 1906. The score was 37 to 34. Emmet stole the show.

Swenson Kirchner Frei licrghonse Green Hunter TENNIS AND GOLF Vifith three veterans from last year's Missouri Valley championship squad, the Vifashhurn tennis loam had a very successful season. Coach :'Dee Errickson's squad was composed of Don Green, Howard Hunter, and Wayne Frei- burghouse, all veterans, Thayne Swenson and D. A. Kirchner, promising newcomers. The squad was paced by Green, who is regarded as one of the finest prospects in the Midwest. The lchabods opened their season by scoring a grand slam over the Big Seven Champs, Colorado State. Washburn then beat Wichita, 5 to 1, in Topeka. In a return match, however, the lcha- bods lied Wichita 3-all. Washburn blanked the University of Kansas netmen, 6 to 0. Green neatly disposed of Howard Engleman, K.U.'s No. 1 man. After winning two engagements from Emporia State, the Ichahods, played four more dual meets. The season was climaxed with the Missouri Valley meet where the Ichabods defended their cham- pionship. This ycar's golf squad was built around four junior lettermen-,lack XVormington, Bill Miller, Virgil Vifest, and Kenneth Murrow. ln their initial match, the lchabod linksinen lost to Kansas State, 4+ to 14. Kenneth Nordstrum of Kansas State was medalist with 68. Viformington paced the Iehabods with a neat 69.

WOMEN'S ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION v , at 62,133 The W'omen,s Athletic Association of Washburn College is maintained for the purpose of encouraging more college women to take part in ath- letic activities. It strives 'for better sportsmanship and creates inter- fraternity spirit. Any girl enrolled in Washburn who is a member of Splash Club, Hockey Club, Orchesis, or who earns ten points through participation in intramural activities, is qualilied to be a member of W.A.A. The point system was changed slightly this year making it necessary for a girl to participate in two major sports and fill in with minor sports to become a member. W. A. A. sponsors a varied program throughout the year. In the fall a picnic is given for all new girls. This gives them a chance to become acquainted with the upper classmen. The Petti-Pant Prom is another annual event held for 'gwomen only. Some of the girls dress as boys and bring their udatesi' to dance in Thomas Gymnasium. ln the spring W.A.A. joins with the menis intramural group in pre- senting play night and stunt night. Members of W.A.A. also sponsor a high school play day with the hope of interesting more girls in Wash- burn. This year W.A.A. sent a delegate to the W.A.A. South Central Sectional Conference at Oklahoma University in Norman, Oklahoma. Every spring a banquet is given at which the awards are made for the past year and the election of ofiicers for the forthcoming year is held. This year's officers Were: president, Betty Hopeg vice-president, Corinne Lamborng secretary, Helen lsermang treasurer, Virginia Davisg intra- mural manager, Kathryn Houseworthg intramural secretary, Martha Crancleeng publicity manager, Metta Snedeker. The Blue Peppers, 'Washlmrn women's pep organization, is composed of frm-slnnan and sophomore girls, eight from each sorority and from the Independent Women's organization. The ,Blue Peppers lead the W'ashlJurn cheering and this year formed a drill team. ln the homecoming parade and at the half of the games, the drill team marched with the newly formed hand. The girls, in their uniforms ol' hlue sweaters and white skirts, attend all hasketball and football games and form a cheering section. This year they were asked, to join Phi Sigma Chi, women's national pep organization. Ollieers are: president, Maxine Delaney, 'vice-president, Alice Clare Brownfield, seeretary-treasurer, Betty Down, drill masters, Mary Louise Alexander and Betty Jane Hirsch.

Participation earns points not only 'for the individual, but for the organization which she represents. The team winning first place in any tournament receives a traveling trophy selected according to regulations of the executive board of W.A.A. Major sports in the schedule include swim- ming, volleyball, basketball, and baseball. Minor sports cover tennis, deck tennis, ping pong, badminton, golf, shuffle board, and arch- ery. The program is concluded with a spring banquet at which the announcement of awards is made. Two of the biggest features outside of the sports program are play night and stunt night. These are planned in collaboration with the menis intramural department. The Kampus Karnival, annual play night, was the scene of much gaiety where men and women teamed up to play volleyball, badmin- ton, ping pong, jo-jo, bridge, and dart throw- ing. The climax of the evening was a dance at which the colored marionette swing hand played. Betty Hope and Bryce Ficken, co- chairmen of the affair, planned several conces- sions that proved popular with the students. Kathryn Houseworth served as intramural manager this year. She was assisted by Martha Grandeen, intramural secretary, and the follow- ing group intramural managers: Evelyn Price, Delta Gamma, ,lane Smith, lndependent Wo- men, Corinne Larnborn, Alpha Phi, Betty Hope, Kappa Alpha Theta, and Barbara Staf- ford, Zeta Tau Alpha. Orchesis has made itself an established part of the women's physical education department in the last four years of its existence. It has proved to be one of the most sought after memberships of any organ- ization on the campus since it combines fun, exer- cise, beauty, emotional and intellectual patterns into a unified aim, the annual spring recital. This year orchesis has been under the leadership of Pauline Emery, Rowena May, and Helen Shideler, and spon- sored by Miss Marjorie Kittell. The theme of the recital this year was the develop- ment of the techniques of modern dancing to be ap- plied lo old and new, familiar musical compositions. A great deal of fun is the main purpose of the girls who have membership in Splash Club. The re- quirements for entrance are high so all the public and private events manifest a lively spirit of com- petition. The club elected Ruth Tobias as their president and she led them in the presentation of a spring pageant with cleverly worked out patterns built around the central theme of the Fisherboy.'7 Z-X game is EJ gf?

This year the Mexican Oil situation, the desirability of an American-English Alli- ance, and the European situation were subjects discussed. This organization is a discussion group and no decisions or conclusions are reached. For the past year the group has functioned without ollicers. A board was appointed which decided the work of the club. The group stood behind Doctor Parley P. Weiner in his drive for prison reform and different members made speeches on this question to several city and county clubs. Early in the spring the group sent six delegates to the International Relations club convention in Omaha, Nebraska. Those who went to the convention from Washburn were Betty Warren, ,lanett Miller, Herbert Marshall, Leland Nielson, ,lack Wormington, and Judd Austin. Shortly after the convention, the election of ollicers was held. Those elected for the current term are: president, Herbert lVlarshall, and secre- tary-treasurer, Betty Wa1'ren.

The council is composed of two members from each sorority with Dean Guild as faculty advisor. It has absolute control over virtually every aspect of rushing and leads in any change that is made during the year reflecting influence or stimulus to the organizations. One of its aims is to eliminate confusion and unpleasantness, and to equalize as much as possible the number of pledges to each sorority. 'llhis year it was decided not to have the quota applied to the rushees but lo have a chapter limitation of forty. Another worthy aim is the plan to assist in bringing more girls to Washburn and so eliminate the source of the trouble that has been de- veloping from the lack of women students interested in the Greek organ- izalions. Each girl planning to go through rush week must register with the dean of women, and must register at each sorority house at the first tea. She must not have more than one date with any one sorority, and she must go to all rush parties unattended by sorority girls. At the close of the last party, all the rushees make out their preference cards at home. They are called for by a committee. A disinterested lawyer tallies these and the results are sent to the sororities by special messenger. One of thc gayest social events of the year is the Pan-Hellenic public dance given during the Christmas holiday season. The proceeds are dis- tributed by Dean Guild to help the needy girls on the campus. Council members this year were Rowena May and Mary Louise Alex- ander, Kappa Alpha Thctag Helen lserman and Ruth Kellner, Delta Cammag Lois Hall and Betty Wa1'1'el1, Alpha Phig Virginia Nicholson and Fern Buchanan, Zeta Tau Alphas. Miss Hall served as president of the council this year. PAN HELLENIC .lane Baird The pledges dusted off the crest of bordeaux and silver for Alpha Phi dur- ing Work Week. Many will remember f'The ln- telligenciav and Red Wing. But aside from all the fun and nonsense, Alpha Phi did not shirk in other duties and the ivy leaf was seen often in campus activities. Janett Miller served as president of the soror- ity the first semester and Jo-Anne Wright served the last 1JEl1'l of the year. They proved, too, that they were not only competent leaders in their own group, but also in school activities. .lanett was president of Quill Club, vice-presi- dent of Y.W.C.A., belonged to Nonoso, and qualified for Tau Delta Pi. ,lo-Anne was presi- dent of French Club, member of Nonoso, and a member of Pi Gamma Mu. lVlargaret Peterson was the junior girl who gained recognition for outstanding scholar- shipg Grace Louise Skeen and Jane Baird took art and music honorsg and Helen Shideler was prominent in both drama and music.

Pan Hellenic Council, flunior Citizenship Council, and Orchesis were headed by Lois l-lall, Patricia Nordeen, Pauline Emery and l-lelen Shidler. Even with all these, Alpha Phi is not com- plete, and we should like to mention our favor- ite girl at the house. She is Athia, the cook. Although officially she is not a member, she has become almost as important a fixture as the sorority house itself to Washburn Campus.

The actives received a report that nine DC pledges were in the police station and they were just a little worried, but later reports proved that the Pi Alphas must have been in at least ten places at one time. Led by Mary Vifashburn as president, the pledges worked cheerfully for six months in order to wear the golden anchor. This spring they are taking their revenge out on the Madcap Williamson sisters, Rosemary Mauzey, and Mickey Mc- lntosh. The girls in the white house are rather proud of some of their girls this year. For instance, everyone knows Mary-has heard her sing and seen her act-need we say more? Poor, over- worked Rosy from Hutch was editor of the Kawg president, Ruth Kellner, of Keller- ville, majored in drama and Ben, and divided her time equally between them. She was as- sistant director and stage manager for Wfash- burn players. The vote for Most Likely to Sue- ceed would probably go to Willette Price. She was president ol Nonoso, member of Tau Delta Pi, Washburn Players, and in addition to many other honors, won the Delta Camma scholar- ship ring. The DCs hate to brag but they think Ruth Marie Kesler made a most beautiful Hobo Queen, and that Jeanne Addington, tlfiest Boyl, and Dead-Pan Daily were a riot at the Petti l v Pant Prom. Speaking of beauty, B. J. Stephens tlast year's sophomore beauty queenl was Home - coming attendant this year and Reese Lynn Saffel and Mary Wash- burn were chosen-well, look in the right section. Other honors go to Evelyn Price, president of the sophomore class, Maxine Delaney for her work as president of ' Blue Peppers, and the many Delta Gammas on the Kaw and Review stalfsg in the Press club, W.A.A., Sigma Alpha Iota, Y.W.C.A., Wasil- burn Players, and the dramatic productions, Noah, The Amazing Dr. Clitterl1,0u.se, and a Bacheloris Honeymoon. Next year's president, Helen lserman, has made her name prominent on the campus in the last three years with her numerous activities and her energy.

After furnishing their hook-cases with hundreds of hooks with the proper color bindings, ranging from Wfhe Bobbsy Twins to MMurder in the Morgue, the girls settled down to the work T of making W'ashburn Theta-conscious. It was several weeks before Thetas recovered from Alpha Delt HWork Week as a result of HOtto', WBIlgSl',S dissertation and Homer Goo- ings tree sitting contest in their hack yard. Thetas held many olhces this year on the campus. Rowena May was secretary of Stu- dent Council and Y.W.C.A.g Delores Holman was president of sophomore conunissiong Betty Hope was president of W'.A.A. Jean Ihinger is the newly elected president of Y.W.C.A. Marion Hughes, Jean Staley, and Martha Lee, were active in dramatics. The '6Collegianas, a quartette composed of Mary Campbell, Patsy Strawn, Mary Louise Alexander, and Helen Beard, were popular entertainers at campus affairs. Fiddle Whilcomb was entered as XVashburn7s delegate in the contest for the queen of the Drake Relays. Catherine Cauthers is to succeed Burdette Holm as president. The badge ol Kappa Alpha Theta is a kite, set with twin stars. The colors are black and gold, and the ofhcial llower is the hlack and gold pansy.

Zeta Taus were active on the campus under the leadership of Fern Buchanan. They were awarded the prize for the best float in the Horneeorning parade with the title of '4Glean 'em Upw to carry out the theme of Shock the Shoekersf, The social year was featured by the Christmas party which was the traditional pre- sentation of the Premiere Showing of Zeta Starsv as a formal introduction of the 1938 pledge class. Margaret Grandeen was this year's president of the Y. W. C. A. Martha Grancleen, Metta Snedeker, and Barbara Stafford were members of her cabinet. Martha Grandeen was vice- president of Delta Phi Delta and both Mar- garet and Martha Grancleen were called to membership in Nonoso this spring. Bessie Mae Wills was chairman of the .Ath- letie Board of Control. Barbara Stafford was secretary-treasurer of the sophomore class and was awarded the Nonoso sophomore eup. A great number of Zeta Taus were interested in W. A. A. and participated in intramurals in an at- tempt to retain the cups and plaeques presented to them last spring. Alpha Mu chapter was established at Washburn in 1922, the 35th in a ehain of 76 links. Zeta Tau Alpha colors are turquoise blue and steel grey. The flower is the white violet.

Now, as 1 then, the group welcomes X any woman student who is not affiliated with a , social Creek-letter soror- ity on the campus. lt still stands for the ideal of a well - rounded girl - full of the zest for living, friendship for all, appre- ciation of the finer things, and the will to do her duty. That ideal has grown with the years, not only in each girl, but also in the unspoken creed of the club as a whole. There is hardly an activity or association on the campus which does not list at least one independent woman as an active member or officer. During the year 1938-1939, the Independents were quite active in athletics. Among other things, they won the intramural basketball championship for the third consecutive year and thereby gained the traveling trophy for their own. Ruth Laughlin won the tennis singles tournament for the group. The swimming team placed first in the intramural meet, while the volleyball team placed third in that contest. Audrey Smith was elected captain of one of the all-star teams. The art, music, and drama departments also number Independent women among their best students. Pauline Banker, junior beauty queen for the spring of 1938, was Banker Brigham Brownliclrl Clarke Cook Ellis Carton I-Iibbs lloosc Shumate A. Smith S. Smith also chosen as one of thc attendants to the home-coming queen the autumn of 738. Of course, no group is adequate without some distinct social life. Therefore, the l.W.'s set party dates throughout the ycar and make the most of these gala nights. Last May, the girls closed Benton Hallis archways with white lattice-work fences covered with roses and spirea branches. ln the center ol the dance floor, a tall May-pole supported enough pastel streamers to festoon the ceiling of the dining- room and afford a gay canopy for the orchestra in its own little fenced-in corner. After the get-acquainted banquet the first week of school with its blue and white decora- tions carrying out the theme of dream castles, came thc Halloween costume frolic. Skeletons, cornstalks, pumpkins, black-eats, witches, and owls threw ghostly shadows on .the walls of the dimly lighted place of goblins. t V V E t Front Row--Reynolds, Dempsey, Schroeder, Trethar, Morgan, Cauldwell, Lee.

INDEPENDENT MEN The Independent Menis Association, organ- ized for the non-alliliatecl man, does not attempt to sponsor an exclusive membership organiza- tion, but rather seeks to serve as an organ- ization to which all Independent men students are welcome. The Independent Men this year have been unusually active in student life. Washburnis athletic teams are composed chiefly of Independents. Independents earning football letters were: Erskine Money, .lohn Stahl, Pat Mowry, Leroy Massey, Joe Mohler, '4Kayo Emmot, ,lim Cables, George Clark, Russ Anderson, Dan Bernstein, Clell Barton, Sal C0ll'0, Edgar Gay, Art Hanni, Norvel Ireland, Milton Long, Harper Owen, and Vifally Schroeder. Basketball lettermen were: '4Kayo,' Emmet, Wally Schroeder, ,lim Cables, Erskine Money, and George Clark. ln the race for the Studebaker intramural trophy the Independents are near the top after a slow start. Independent teams won both the Class :LAN and HB basketball tournaments. Glen Yankee, Earl Woolley, Roland Crab- tree, Charles Eggler, and Rex Thomas held Henry Allen Fellowships, serving as depart- mental assistants. Everett Tretbar, Bob Turney, and Leland Nielson, were active in forensic work. Bob Grice, Glen Yankee, and Roland Crab- tree were selected members of Tau Delta Pi, honorary scholastic fraternity, and Pi Gamma Mu, social science fraternity. ,lack Lee, Dick Taylor, and ,lack Yocum were cast in major dramatic productions. Herbert Marshall was elected president of the International Relations Club. Earl Woolley served as president of the Y.M.C.A., and Mel- vin Murphy is elected for next year. Headed by Gene Poggemeyer as editor of the Review, others active in journalism are: Bob Luginbill, Everett Tretbar, Rex Thomas, Jim Reed, and Charles Simmons. Kay Houseworth and Eugene Poggemeyer, were judged the Washburn's best dancers by unanimous acclaim. Kay, a vivacious and popular red-head, is a member of Alpha Phi sorority. Her con- sistently good disposition and democratic friendliness make her one of the best liked girls on the campus. Poggey, the clever and likable editor of the Washlnurri Review, admits his two chief in- terests are Kay and journalism. QKNZEK SWINC-TIME MANIFESTO Dear Uncle Rufus: Say, Uncle, you should have sent Cousin Sadie down here this year. These Ichabods have really been in the groove during the past school year. Johnny the's the dance manager I was a tellin' you aboutj put on several jam sessions during the first semester with some really usolidw bands and the lchabods were swingini it all over the place. Now clonlt get ine wrong, Uncle Ruf, I don't mean to imply that Johnny fairly coined money cause he didn't. In fact, he almost had to throw a mort- gage over his little jelopie to pay off some of the bands and all because some of the jitterbugs would rather truck on down to Artie Shaw, Benny Goodman, Count Basie, Kay Kyser, and Chick Webb at Grayceis lthat's the college week-end hang-outj. And just between you and me and Cousin Sadie, I kinda like this Shaw lad myself. I kinda go for that sweet swing and not so much of this jitterbuggin' and boy can that boy Shaw play sweet swing-in the groove. We had a couple of mixers put on by the Y.W. with music on the nickelodeon and practically all the cats and 'gals turned out to make Benton hall reach a new high for swing caucuses. Then Kenny put the Washburn ,lunior-Senior prom back on the map with a swell party with music by those llysom alligators from KU. The prom sort of pulled us out ol a rut since we hadnlt had a college dance for some time. I was afraid that the boys and girls would take up goldlish swallowing out of sheer boredom but the prom sort ol turned their interest, and our pub- licity deparlinenl. eouldn't send out releases about Wfashburn students being the charnpion swallower of the North Central Missouri Valley conference. Time was cons ago when WashlJu1'n went to W'ashburn varsities, but them days are gone forever-now Topeka High supports our affairs, while the erstwhile school-spiriters have vanished. Maybe they are spon- soring dances for Boswell junior high at Grayce's, who knows in this topsy turvy world? The older generation is so busy getting the younger generation to Washburn that they've forgotten there is a W'ashburn out- side of rushing parties and elections. Guess l'd better get back to class. Ilm sending you six of the latest Artie Shaw recordings so you can get the old home town swinging. I'll be home in a few weeks and I do like my swing music. Stay in the Grove, Pogo Ichabod. MR. ICHABOD GOES TO TOWN by Bob Hemphill Mr. lchabod was thoughtful. And when he was thoughtful, the Brothers learned eventually, anything might happen. On this occasion he was even more thoughtful than the last time, which, as nearly as the Brothers could remem- be1', had been about three months before. The truth of the matter is that Mr. Ichabod felt the urge to socialize, to mix with his kind in gay, delightful occupation of some sort- say, a dance. Not that he was ordinarily an anti-social or a-social creature, no indeed. Mr. lchabod, on the contrary, was a very friendly young man for the most part, as a matter of fact, there were those in the house who main- tained that someone who was always about the house yelling and slapping people on the back, should be locked up at frequent intervals, par- ticularly during rush week, until some of his good spirits had bubbled away. No, lVlr. lchabod was not one to slip away from his fellow man and just sit quietly smell- ing flowers. He liked crowds of people about him, all yelling and having fun, but the present giddy social whirl of the campus was not enough. The old 'ccollege lifel' was not all it had been cracked up to be. True, he went to this and that campus function-the athletic con- tests, the pep rallies, the latest brain-children of the drama department, and so on down the list of chapels. These, while they took up a portion of his spare time, and kept him more or less diverted, left an intangible something to be desired. They made him want to do something big-like paint- ing an elephant . . . Yes, announced Mr. lchabod, coming out of his trance, I shall paint an elephant. The Brothers sitting around the living room at the time paid scant heed to this proclama- tion, in spite of the fact that it was startling enough if interpreted literally, they were used to Mr. lchabod's little idiosyncrasies, includ- ing his screwball habit of saying almost any- thing that popped into his head . . . Later on, however, they were to learn that when lVlr. lcha- bod said anything about painting an elephant, the safest and most conservative policy was to tie him in bed until the impulse had passed away . . . Mr. lchabod decided that what the campus social program needed was a bit of livening-up, and he proposed to bring this about by promot- ing a dance-a come one, come all affair at which the entire student body could gather to hoot, holler, and be happy in general. lt goes without saying, of course, that he met with certain obstacles. lndeed, before he got through he had come to the conclusion that painting an elephant was a small thing by com- parison. There were the problems of getting a hall, an orchestra, refreshments, and what-not, what was even more diflicult was the fact that he had to interview everyone associated with the school administration in order to get per- mission to hold the dance, arrange for adequate chaperonage, and all the various other tech- nicalities which best the would-be school var- sity promoter. So it was with a sigh of relief, then, that Mr. lchabod at last 'found everything ready to go. The Big Night had arrived. He had a hall- the field house, in fact-a band. fof sortsl, and refreshments. He also had chaperons, permis- sions, llll11C limits, everything. The advance sales had been small, to be sure, and unless the gate sales were considerably better, Mr. lcha- bod might well contemplate a life spent in poverty and want, but his elephant-painteris mind refused to dwell upon this unpleasant pos- sibilityq The chief fContinuerl on page 1432 if, 1 K 4 f 'ff W, J' 1 4 1 v V ., I I, 11. v .1:. , , -u ,i ,I f Tw n, 1 y, uw nw , L- JUNIOR-SENIOR PROM W3Slll3l11'l1,S one formal dance on the campus IS the J-lll'llO.l'-SClll0l' Plfoin given every spring hy the JUNIOIQ for the grarluating class.

Firsts in baseball, tennis, and golf, and sec- ond in class B basketball, gives them a coveted place among the aspirants to the coveted Stude-' baker Trophy. Torn Mix, and Edward Amsbaugh were again awarded football letters. Ed was the left end who snagged a long pass in the last minutes of the Turkey Day game to cinch the game for Washburn. Exactly 326 points were compiled during the basketball season by Alpha Delta regulars, Sanneman, Mackey, and Amsbaugh. Freshmen Hanson, Payne, Dawson, La Plante, and Logan, often comprised the starting lineup for the ball hawking lchababes. Bill Wenger won his fresh- man numeral in football. Tom Mix, senior class president, and Nor- man Sanneman, elected Mr. lchabod, held the ALPHA DELTA major training positions. Tom kept things corked in the basketball cage, and Norman tried to keep the football huskies from over-exercis- ing. Alpha Delis, ,loe Logan and lack Wendell were editor and business manager of the popu- lar campus magazine, Camera1na. War'rl Bushaclier, ,lohn Stevens, and Tom Mix were east in the dramatic production, Dr. Clitterhouse, Tom playing the leading role. ln addition to their annual Fireman,s Ball, Alpha Delta held a W.P.A. party that was com- plete to the very financial status of guests.

Everyone f 75 from thoid street to thoity-thoid has a rip roar- ing good time at this party of which the key- note is informality. Farmer Brown will truck on down at the Phi Delt Barn Party which has become an important social event on the campus. lngenious fresh- men decorate the house in fine style and' also give a stunt that most of the chaperones ap- prove. Overalls, handannas, corn cola pipes and bat- tered straw hats are favorite apparel for the occasion. The P.A.D. Frontier party finds the Wash- burn girl arrayed in hoop skirts and hustle. The fellas wear a wide variety of things. Novel are the whiskey bottle check room and huge bar. Thomas Gym Mcvicar Chapel 0 nn a ga s ki by Betty Lou Ufford Bonnagaski was a big, dumb mick with an l.Q. of about sixty and a notoriously one-track mind. The son of unnaturalized Russian Jews, he had had practically no education and hadnit wit enough to pass it off as inconsequential. Most of the platoon swore he didn't even have good horse sense, and the barracks echoed loud and long to recitations of his doltish stupidity and blundering. No one knew why he wanted to go to war, only that he had begged with tears in his eyes to be accepted when his army alpha test was returned with a blazing and succinct Impos- siblen underscored on it. Probably out of pity he was made a member of the 26th Infantry. Pratt, his platoon sargeant, was a harried little man, whose defensive blustering made hi1n appear like a banty rooster ready for a fight. Beneath his shell was a tenderness suspected by few. The nearest he ever came to displaying it was in a gruffly protective attitude toward Bonnie. At first the sargeant had tried assign- ing him simple jobs that a ten year old could do right. Bonnie never failed to do it wrong- either he misunderstood or he didnft understand at all. He was the type of the soldier who, when told by his general to have his horse shod, blindly and loyally followed what he thought were the orders and shot it. Sergeant Pratt gave up in despair and kept him on simply because he was like a dose of bottled sunshine to the rest of the soldiers. Bon- nieis spirits were never ruflied. He rattled around and blundered and drew his pay and lost it smilingly every Saturday, and served as a buffer to the thoughts of the more seriously inclined soldiers. They ridiculed and mimicked him, but they were thankful for something to laugh at when the bombs had stopped and they got their teeth unclenched again. Orders finally came to move up to the front line. Every one showed the effect of nervous strain, except Bonnie, who blandly polished and shined up his shoes as though be were prepar- ing to go to tea with the General's wife. The front was less than one hundred kilo- meters away. They started out at dawn and arrived during an open shell attack. Bonnie adjusted himself slowly to the new surround- ings and relaxed, while, all round him, orders were being shouted out and obeyed with forced precision. Bonnie was ordered to a trench slightly outside the main line of fire, where he would not be forced, or need attempt, to hold the enemy at bay. The shell fell with almost mathematical regularity and Bonnie dutifully loaded, discharged, and reloaded without hav- ing the faintest idea of where his bullets went lo rest. Suddenly and incalculably, the enemy's fir- ing line shifted. Bullets and hand grenades peppered down around Bonnie. The Sergeant frantically sent the other end of the line over the top, knowing that his weakest point had been discovered and would be taken advantage of. Bonnie heard his shouted order, and look- ing down the line, saw the men at the far end worming their way up over the embankment. He started to follow them and got his body halfway out of the trench, when someone grab- bed his foot and pulled him back, miraculously uninjured. 'fYou Coddam fool, stay here! Do you want to ruin the whole war? Bonnie dazedly shook himself and reloaded. The Bring doubled in intensity. Shrapnel screamed and whistled about them. At the end of thirty minutes, Bonnie was the only one standing within ten feet on either side. Tears streamed down his face and he kept loading, firing, and reloading until his arms ached. As suddenly as it had begun, the firing ceased and Bonnie sank down in the mire to rest. During the next two weeks, what was left of the fourth platoon shuttled back and forth from the front line to the support position, with an ever changing personnel. Through it all, Bon- nie maintained his charmed life, with nothing worse than a slight shrapnel wound in his left hand. During the last part of September, the en- gagements became successively more violent and brutal. The Fourth and three other pla- toons again responded to the call of a presenti- ment-ridden general and went back to the front. The objective was the Hindenburg Line, either to hold it back or break it. L'Shine up your shoes, Bonnie-they're giv- ing a little party for your soon, and you don't want to be taken by surprisef' They jibed at him and he took it smilingly and unknowingly. fContinued on page 141.71 5 lt's our happy privilege to Salute the Class ofi '59 and Washburn College The Morning Capital pauses in its work to pay tribute to you Graduates of WHSlllJU,1'H College Class of ,39 . . . to the faculty and to the undergraduates.

At nine that night, lVlr. lehalrod looked upon his newly-painted paehyderni with a sad and clissillusioned eye.

But Mr. Iehahod was nothing if not resource- ful . . . l'le held a hurried eonversation with three of the Brothers. These three departed soon afterwards, one elutehing Mr. lehahod's last cent-a twenty dollar hill. Some time later the lights went out, sud- denly . . . there were screams. The orchestra stopped. A shadowy ligure slithered up to the punch howl. There was a gurgling noise as if something were heing poured into the howl . . . The lights eaine on, and Mr. lc-hahod step- ped to the 1-enter ol' the lloor to apologize for the incident, and also to announee a short in- termission. During the ensuing interval lVlr. lehahod, the courteous host, made sure that menihers of the hand received generous portions of the punch, which the clarinet man said. smacking his lips, was not had, not had. After intermission the orchestra, seemingly revived either hy the punch or hy the prospect of putting an end to this thing hefore many more hours had dragged hy, played with a toueh of ahandon. The clarinet man went so far as to take a hot ehorus during an otherwise- languid number, and the hideheater responded with a fervent Yeah, llliltllw as did sundry others of the little group.

By some queer prank of fate, many of these same individuals turned up at the varsity, and by midnight the hall was full of yelling, danc- ing people. The orchestra was giving out as no one, earlier in the evening, would have believed possible. The rather modest punch bowl which had served an occasional patron during the fore part of the affair, had been replaced by a washtub - and was surrounded by thirsty dancers. Mr. lchabod was so pleased with the orchestra's revived condition that he had placed a special punch bowl on the stage for them. Apparently Mr. lchabodis elephant was re- ceiving a gala coat of paint, to be sure, and under other circumstances he might have been quite pleased-but there had been a few trivial occurences to mar this memorable occasion. Nothing, understand, of importance. Now and again a couple doubtless carried away momen- tarily as a trumpet shrilled high, or the drum- mer burst into a mad, machine-gun whacking of snare and symbols, danced with too much abandon and fell down in a heap-to the gen- eral merriment. Unfortunately, these victims of swing seemed to have the knack of falling directly in front of the by-this-time stern eyes of the assembled chaperons. One pair of jit- terbugs had actually alighted in the lap of one of the female chaperones . . . Mr. lchabod thought he detected a certain coolness in the attitude some of the chaperons were taking toward the whole affair, and he thought it perhaps best that he keep out of sight for the nonce. He was confirmed in this opinion when, at midnight, the chaperonage, en masse, got up and swept out of the room in high dudgeon. The dancers, however, did not take this rude lJ0l'l3.V10l1'l' to heart, as a matter of record, they voiced their friendliness by stop- ping the music temporarily to give fifteen lusty cheers for the chaperons. This was fol- lowed by a few bars of uGoodnight, Ladies, whereupon the dancing was resumed. Some say it was three a.m. and some it was four when the punch ran out and the orchestra leader remembered that he and his mates were Union men. ln any event, the musicians gathered up most of their paraphenalia and left the scene, some time during those darkest and coldest hours before dawn . . . Mr. lchabod had painted his elephant. KCOIUDZZLCCZ on page l46j 1441 ST DENTS!

Icl1abod's Opinions of the Administration I Continued from page 15,1 Mr. lchabod did not have the dollar, he did not have the one per-cent whatever-it-was. He was forced to beat a retreat, muttering some- thing about leaving his change in another fand niythicalj pair of trousers. He did, however, in the end pacify the whole lot of them-even the man with the dollar signs in his eyes, and it was with a deep sigh of relief, not unmixed with annoyance, that Mr. Ichabod completed his enrollment at last. Only minor misfortunes pursued him through the rest of the year, until his present difficulty of Old Phiz, He slid, as the saying goes, thru the weeks, gathering never a gray hair, despite the fact that he found it expedient to keep his job and work at it. His occasional brushes with the Administration were small things, and he was still, he said, the same old forgiving lcha- bod who was willing to overlook bygones and let sleeping dogs lie. He could take the Ad- ministration or leave it alone. He could, that is, until he was faced with this foul blow in the shape of the HF in Social Sci- ence 23. This, Mr. lchabod felt, was the last straw. What did it avail a man to go about thinking noble thoughts about Administrations, when occurrences like this were apt to take place at any time? Nothing, nothing at all. 'iI've been nourishing a viper, he said sadly, 4'And it has turned to throw stones at 77 me. 146 Bonnagaski tfforitilmcll from page 14101 They reminded him with derisive laughter of the time, when, running at top speed in a strategic and dangerous advance, he had tripped and fallen right behind one small lone flower left on the the shell torn field. He lay looking at it in a daze for a few seconds, then gently picked it as tho that were the logical thing to do, went stumbling on into the combat, his baynot raised and the flower in his teeth. And don't stop to pick pansies, Bonnie. '1'hey'll be planting I.hem on you soon enough? Bonnie grinned and went to work on his shoes. Evening found them in the trenches on the front lines. Sergeant Pratt made a hasty inspection of his men and gave out order for the night. He also held a short conference with the men of Bon- nieis squad, excluding Bonnie. Crulliy and confidentially, he announced to the other six, 'Tm going to give Bonnie the number one post tonight. A chorus of muted groans went up. c'You two, Acre and Johnson, you go around and jack him up and l'll come around pretty soon and give him hellf, Acre and Johnson gleefully, but with long solemn faces, sought out Bonnie. Bonnie, you,re on the claxon tonightf' they announced in unison. Bonnie accepted it with blank surprise. i'Yus? i'Yeah-you! My gawd man, do you real- ize you've got the most important post there is! You've got the lives of 250 men in your hands. All you have to do is fall asleep and we're all dead-wiped out, and you'll be the cause. See? Bonnie began to sweat, and mumble unintel- ligibly. They alternately swore at him and called him a hero, stressing with each word his importance. KNOW lissen, Bonnie, and we'll tell you all ya gotta do. Now all you gotta do is turn the handle on the elaxon when you hear a gas bomb hit. Sound it even if the bombis ten miles away. Remember, gas bombs growl and shrap- nel whines. Cas bombs growl and then they go bang, instead of sounding like an egg. All you gotta do is turn the crank. It turns hard, but you can do it, you big ox. And if anything goes wrong, call one of us.

It sounded like a million of them, a mixture of gas bombs and shrapnel shells mixed so that the characteristic sound of the gas bombs was almost lost. Through it all the claxon con- tinued its piercing ascension of tone. The men in the dugout grabbed their masks and leaped for the stairway. As they reached the foot of the steps, a hgure, bloated and blue about the face, plunged down stairs, gasping for air. It was one of the sentries. His body was riddled and blood had already nearly covered his clothing. They dragged him over to a pal- let and tore away his clothes. Immediately another sentry came reeling into the pit. He too was covered with blood, and he fell lifeless at the bottom of the steps. They carried him into a corner and left him. The claxon continued its witless, unbroken song. Gas, in thick gray tendrils drifted down the entrance. Everyone readjusted his gas mask and started up the stairs. Outside, a thick blanket of yellow gray gas enveloped them. The bullets and bombs ceased falling. Johnson and Acre plunged through the fumes to where they knew Bonnie would still be. The siren clanged on. They came upon him leaning limply against the claxon, using his whole body to push the handle around, letting it carry him down, and struggling wildly to push it up again. Slower and slower it sounded. He saw them and choked out, Cas . . . l did vot you . . . told me . . . 6'Bonnie, for God's sake, where's your gas mask'?', Bonnie plunged forward on the ground and they saw his gas mask still neatly strapped on his shoulders. Bullets began to fall again. That crazy dumb fool, Acre said, Too busy warning us to put on his own gas maskf' He probably didn't even think. He did what we told him, but we didn't tell him enough. In the morning, after the all night siege, Ser- geant Pratt, wounded himself, saw Bonnie lay- ing at his post. He wasn't sure whether it was the gray of dawn or death on Bonnagaskils face. This was told to me for the truth by my uncle, who served in the same squad as Bonnagski, and who is present in the person of fohnson. fCOIlliI1.'lt8d on page 1531 151 ZERCHERS FOR EVERY SCHOOL NEED IEIKCIIEIH BOOK 65 STATIONERY CO.
