Text from Pages 1 - 144 of the 1951 volume:

W.V.W. Li B RAF ft ' it 1 - «■• - i V  i  ' . n V ft  h v BRAi Sixty-one years ago our fathers brought forth in Buckhannon, West Virginia Wesleyan Col- lege. Buildings have been burned and raised: students, faculty, administrators have come and gone, but the Oak Grove has remained. The trees in the Oak Grove are the original trees that were on campus when the school was first founded. High in the branches the winds whisper secrets of Wesleyan ' s past, promises foi her future. Inspiring to all Wesleyan ' s Famil) arc their sentinels of time. In ihis grove devotionals rise to praise the Creator, youth discovers courage to Face difficult decisions, and l o s press the hands of girls ilu 1 e. So now the Oak Grove becomes the theme foi the 1951 Murmur montis, published In the Pub lications Committee of the Community Council Co-editors — Charles Collins and June Walkei Business Manager -Man Peyton d isei -Est her (a istnan Dedication To Miss Edna Jenkins, alumna, trustee, and benefactor of West Virginia Wesleyan College, the 1951 Murmurmontis is lovingly dedicated. Miss Jenkins was graduated in 1902 from the West Virginia Conference Seminary, which in 1904 became West Virginia Wesleyan College, and has been a member of the Board of Trus- tees of West Virginia Wesleyan College since 1942. In 1950. Miss Jenkins, together with Dr. Thomas W. Haught. received the Alumni Award, in recognition of her outstanding loy- alty to her Alma Mater. The list of Miss Jenkins ' benefactions is long and impressive. Representative examples are the Home Economics Cottage (1942) . the new Moeller organ (1949), and the new Steinway Concert Grand piano (1950): but these are only examples, and represent in themselves no more than a small part of her frequent and gen erous contributions to West Virginia Wesleyan College. Each year Miss Jenkins assists a number of West Virginia Wesleyan College students, often as many as five or six. with their expenses, thus making it possible for them to continue their studies. Sometimes she sends more than the amount reported by the administration as needed, with the suggestion that the student concerned will be able to make good use of it. She even writes in June to inquire whether the students she assisted during the preceding year will need help the following year. She searches for good opportunities to invest in Christian education. Living modestly in the little town of Petro- leum, West Virginia, and expressing in her numerous benefactions a devotion to West Vir- ginia Wesleyan College as constant as the law of gravity, Miss Jenkins exemplifies beautifully the Christian ministry of giving — a type of min- istry as noble as any other, and all too rare among those who have been entrusted with wealth. She has learned from the Master readier that It is more blessed to give. It is the lifelong loyalty and perennial phil- anthropy il rare sotds like Miss Jenkins that make it possible tor Christian colleges to orig- inate, to develop, to survive, and to serve. We are already so deeply in her debt that we can never hope to do more than meet interest pay- ments by making the best possible use of her generous gifts. In grateful recognition of all that she has done, and will do, for us. and other students like us. we dedicate to her the 1951 Murmur- montis. Edna | nkins •« $ , „ : l . % ' £ ?

Admin- istrators and faculty hold the name and traditions ol the school. Storms, blasts and gales bend them as they do the oak. but like thai mighty tree thev weather the storms. A D M I N I S T R A T I N President William John Scarborough Harriet Welshonce, Sccretar The direction of West Virginia Wesleyan Col- lege is under the capable leadership of President William John Scarborough whose untiring efforts have helped to maintain the high honor of service provided to its students. President Scarborough has endeavored to uphold the aims of Wesleyan to the utmost in building competent, cultured. Christian people. Dean Arthur A. Schoolcraft Arthur A. Schoolcraft has loyally served Wes- leyan for many years in the administrative capa it) as Dean. It is through his direction that Wesleyan has maintained its high academic standing, and lias served thousands ol students in the past c.ns in their intellectual growth. Man Shaw Strugneli, Secretary TREASURER ' S OFFICE STAFF L lo R: William Hicks, Nina Chcnowcth, Regina Kenney, Heyward A. Williams— Treasurer. The treasurer, Mr. Williams, and the busi- ness staff will be long remembered by students as the people who credit the monetary loss. These are the people who handle the financial aspect of the college business. It is through them that accurate and efficient records of financial administration are kept in order. The Dean ' s office staff, not quite as well known to the student as the treasurer ' s office staff, keeps the students ' records in order, and sends out college literature as well as many other administrative tasks. It is through the efforts of these people that the task of adminis- tration is carried out.

These are the house mothers, the doctor and nurse, and the cooks. The house mothers live in the dormitories, barracks, and fraternity houses and provide a pleasant atmosphere for play and study for the students. Counseling and giving advice are two important aspects of their work that the student finds very helpful. The health center, located in the student union, is under the supervision of Dr. Robert Chamberlain and Nurse Madge Martin who provide the medical attention for the student when he is sick. The head cooks in Wesleyan ' s three dining halls are masters in the culinary art. They super- vise the preparation and serving of the food that is eaten by Wesleyan ' s students. Many hungry guys and gals have been fed by these fine cooks. Top to bottom: House Mothers— Seated: Mrs. Gussler, Mrs. Greenlee, Mrs. Fitz- gerald. Standing: Mrs. Mick, Mis. Hamrick, Mrs. Herold, Mis.

Community Council Has Finger In Many Pies The Community Council, student govern- ment body (il West Virginia Wesleyan College, began operation under its present constitution on June 20. 1947. The main purpose of the Council is to be a government of the students, by the students, and for the students , with representation from the administration and faculty. The Community Council functions through committees which are in charge of the various areas of campus life. These committees are: Awards. Conduct. Cultural Enrichment. Fra- ternities, House Government, Publications, Religious Activities, Social Activities, Student Union, X. S. A. Campus, and the Educational Affairs Committee. This type of student gov- ernment found at West Virginia Wesleyan College is considered one of the outstanding types for a small college. One outstanding contribution of the 1950-51 Community Council was the addition of an Educational Affairs Committee, whose duties are to confer and make recommendations con- cerning matters of educational interest and policies, with particular consideration for aca- demic affairs. Along with the extra activities ,ue tlie annual duties of supervising Freshman Week and Homecoming. Financed by the Community Council. Albert Tomer and Joe Perez attended the Third National Student Association Congress held at the University of Michigan. Ann Arbor, Mich- igan. August 23-31. Delegates were also sent to the West Virginia Federation of College Students Conference held at Shepherd College. Shepherdstown. West Virginia. November 16-18. Headed by Community Council President, Robert Lisensky. the student governors meet each Friday afternoon. Present at these meetings are Richard Johnson. Vice-president, Jean Burton, Secretary, and the class representatives. The Senior and Junior classes each have three representatives on the Council. Representing the Senior class are Jean Burton, Albert Tomer, and Bill Hastings: the Junior. Colleen Burke. Barbara Harless. and Richard Johnson. The Sophomore and Freshman classes have two rep- resentatives each. Katherine Bachtel and Char- les Ellwood represent the Sophomore class: Constance Garrison and Raymond Crispin, the Freshman.

It has served as a camping ground ' for those students who are seriously interested in the field of psychology, giving them a broader opportunity to learn and to experiment with the principles upon which the science has been built. The primary purpose of the organization is embedded in the hope that through study, ex- perimentation, and hard work, intermingled with fellowship, the society may prove to be valuable not only to its members, but to Wes- leyan as a whole. In order to attain full membership in the club, a student must be working toward a major or minor in psychology. However, affiliate mem- bership is granted to those students who are seriously interested in bringing its aims into the realm of reality but who do not declare a minimum of fifteen hours in the department. An over-all program included various pro- jects such as propaganda and prejudice polls which the members worked on during the year. Demonstrations in psychological measurements, and experiments with mazes, reaction time boards, extra-sensory perception, and depth per- ception were conducted by different members of the group. Professor Vayhinger spoke to the club on two occasions concerning vocations in psychology and problem drinkers. Dr. Franquiz spoke on The Predicament of Psychology as a Science. A film Cerebral Palsy was shown and Mary Herri ck shared some of the experiences she has had while work- ing with palsied children. The society was vis- ited by the Davis and Elkins Mental Hygiene Club. Trips were made to the Weston and Spencer State Hospitals for the mentally ill, where clinics were presented including the demonstration of electro-shock therapy. Officers for the current year are: president. Bob Lisensky: vice-president. Joan Kendall; secretary, Margaret Jane Cook; and treasurer, Ren Miner.

Limelight Spots Playshop Activities Those who crave the tin ill of performing be- hind the footlights, designing scenery, or merely selling tickets, belong in the West Virginia Wesleyan Playshop. The work of this large, active group is evi- denced each year in the two three-act plays they produce. Audiences are still chuckling over Bob Brown ' s clever portrayal of lovable, old Father Minick. Only those in the Playshop know of the hustle and bustle behind the scenes, the horror of forgetting a line, the thrill of a large audience. Not content with its two big productions, the Playshop presents a score of one-act plays dur- ing the school year. The Prince of Hearts, with its clever costumes and zany foolery, was the delightful product of careful direction by- Senior member Colleen Burke and clever acting by the girls. The intriguing Two Crooks and a Lady, was tedious to stage. Joan Kendall and her group labored long and hard to create the right effect. The characters in Miss Fannie ' s Bomb brought the Playshop ' s first one-act play program to an hilarious close. The student director of this clever skit was Mildred Hath- away. These and other one-act plays were presented in several nearby high schools. The players thus experienced the hardships of touring theater groups. Tiny stages, cluttered passage-ways, and poor lighting make high school play producing difficult. This year ' s members also took part in college productions, such as Wesleyantics and the oper- etta. Mikado. Only by producing a great number of plays can the members get the experience they crave. All are not actors; many are prompters, stage- hands, or business managers. But all of them, in one way or other, love theater work and to help produce plays. Membership is limited only by one ' s love for dramatics. New members remain Juniors until they do work outstanding enough to rate Senior membership. The Playshop is directed by John D. Shaver, professor of speech. This year ' s officers include: Jack Ferrell, President: R. L. Moore, Vice-president; Rach- ael Shaver. Secretary-treasurer; and Betty Cross and Ruth Lautenslaker. Publicity Chairmen.

Murmurmontis Staff Is Proud of Finished Producl A small silver key is fitted into the lock of a door opposite the Health Center in the Student Union. As the door is swung open one catches a glimpse of a small, neat office, the home of the Murmurmontis. Although the office is now quiet and empty, one is usually apt to find it occupied with busy staff members preparing the contents of the yearbook. The copy editor and her crew might be pour- ing over stacks of paper writing, reading, editing and re-writing copy, identifications and head- lines. Every piece of material must be checked and rechecked for mistakes. Rubber cement fills the air with a pungent odor when the engraving staff is at work. Mark- ing, cropping, cutting and mounting are only part of the job of preparing pictures for the en- graver. Accuracy is essential for one misjudged distance or slip of the cutter may mean a ruined page. Much of the work that goes into the yearbook cannot be done in the office. The work of the art staff and photography staff is essential in the yearbook production. Preparing photo- graphs and copy for all organizations is the job ol i he organizations editor while the student life editor collects and captions snapshots. The two busiest members of the Murmur- montis staff are the co-editors. It is their job to unify the work of each part of staff into one complete book and to see that all stall members complete their work on time. Top (o bottom: Betty and Bunny correcting copy.

Since 1904, the PHAROS, under the auspices of the Publications Commit- tee of the Community Council, has been a stu- dent publication. Offering experience to pros- pective journalists, the paper also provides jobs in the art and business departments. The reporters for the PHAROS, students of the college who are interested in writing, meet each Monday evening at 6:45 in the PHAROS room of the Administration Building to get their assignments. To protect the walls and desks of the college, the PHAROS provides space for the work ol student cartoonists. Selling advertisement and pinching pennies is the job of the business man- ager, the treasurer of the paper. Hilling the Wesleyan news-stands each Wed- nesday, th e PHAROS is assembled during a session at Miss Crisman ' s on Sunday afternoon. The four pages of copy then go to Elkins where they are printed. This year the co-editors and business man- ager had the enlightening experience ol attend- ing the National Associated Press Conference in early November. Here they learned many tricks ol the newspaper trade and had a good look at the city of Chicago as well. Top to bottom Ym sir, e re proud of our paper, A Pharo DOW-WOW.

Philosophers Present Papers A few of Wesleyan ' s students are deep enough thinkers to grasp the principles ot philosophy and to rate membership in the Pi Epsilon Theta. national philosophical fraternity. Because of its belief in Personalism, Pi Epsilon Theta has only two chapters in the United States. The first and largest chapter is at the University of California at Los Angeles; the second, at West Virginia Wesleyan. The main purpose of the Wesleyan chapter is to prepare papers on philosophy to be pre- sented to the West Virginia Philosophical Society, which convenes twice a year at specified colleges throughout the state. Eugene Haaf, president of the chapter, presented a paper en- titled The Philosophy oj War and the Phil- osophy of Peace at the first convention held at the University of Morgantown. October 13 and 14. Joan Kendall, who will present the paper at the spring meeting, and Joe Perez accom- panied Mr. Haaf and officially defended the paper. Outside of preparing these difficult papers, the fraternity has few other activities. However, the spring initiation and banquet is the one exception. This formal occasion is patterned after the impressive initiation at U. C. L. A. Students with high academic standing who have completed six hours of Dr. Franquiz ' s dif- ficult philosophy courses are eligible to join the Pi Epsilon Theta. Prospective members for the year are: Chuck Ellwood, Lorene Fitzwater, Joe Kaluhiokalani, Don Rackliffe, Jean Weeks. Jim Hill, Vernon Berg, Seth Bower, and Bill Brown. Those new members will be required to learn the laws of the great philosophers of the past and to maintain acceptable grades in order to be initiated in the spring. In addition to the student enrollment, several of the faculty, interested in philosophy and in the fraternity ' s intercollegiate activities, are also members. Officers for the year are: Eugene Haaf, Presi- dent: Joe Perez, Vice-president; Mary Herrick. Secretary: Eugene Maley, Treasurer: Joan Kendall. Community Council Representative: Dr. Jose Franquiz, Adviser. Readers Gain Culture From Classics Adding culture to Wesleyan ' s extra-curric- ulum, the Haught Literary Society promotes interest in the words ol wisdom found in greal books. Through the reading and discussing ol these books, the members become acquainted with the great minds ol the pasl and present, ihus broadening their own minds. Although membership is limited to sixteen women, ever) student on the campus benefits from the work ol the Society. The Literary Box, located in the library, displays .1 new and thought-provoking quotation eac h wick, for the benefit ol non-members, llu ' readers meet each Wednesday to discuss the works ol gi eat wi iters or their own 01 iginal works. Instead of answering here, the mem- bers recite a quotation whin the roll is called, Each member is responsible for leading a meet ing. Several meetings featured speakers who are outstanding in the literary field. Miss Crisman, Mrs. Sidney Davis, and Dr. Lewis Chrisman spoke to the group this yeai During the winter, when the members are reading and reciting, they look forward to the Society ' s gala event, the annual spring banquet. Dr. Thomas Haught, former president ol West Virginia Wesleyan, realized the need for a liter.n group on the campus and founded the Society twenty five years ago. Dr. Haught had an intense interest in the gnat literary masters and then works, and so have all the women who have sine 1 joined his So iet) . Membership in this distinguished group is elective.

Learning the art of cooking and home-making, these women are the mem- bers of the Betty Lamp Club, a national organ- ization for home economics students. During the year, the Betty Lamp Club spons- ored many programs to promote the members ' interest in home economics. At the meeting featuring a demonstration of cosmetics, differ- ent shades of make-up were applied to the con- trasting complexion of Elaine Karnes and Mary Thompson. At their other meetings, the girls learned about cooking, sewing, and other domestic subjects. Besides these educational programs, the Betty Lamp Club sponsored several outside activities. Adding to the convenience of their cozy home economics cottage on Barbour Street, the girls made plans for a barbecue in the back yard. Eager to start having parties and wiener-roasts, the girls plan to help build the brick barbecue. Serving for campus dinners is a prime func- tion of the Betty Lamp members. They were the apron-clad hostesses for the Homecoming barbecue and the faculty dinner. Answering the plea for home-made cookies, the club baked and sold sugar, peanut butter, and chocolate-chip cookies to the girls and boys on campus. One of the greatest thrills of a home econ- omics major ' s school days is dwelling in the attractive home economics cottage. Three or four girls live in and manage the complete little home for six to eight weeks. The Betty Lamp Club is under the advisory of Miss Gladys Cronemeyer, professor of home economics. This year ' s officers are: Mary Her- rick. President: Margaret Ann Gunter, Vice- president: Kate Clark. Secretary: Ruth Mickel. Treasurer: Betty Jean Crabb, Social Chairman; Pat Phelps.

Boy Scouts of America. The boys began their activities earlv with a Sunday afternoon hike to the famous Pringle tree, near Buckhannon, where they held a cook-out and campfire on the historic spot where white man First lived in central West Virginia. Later they presented an attractive Float in Wesleyan ' s Homecoming parade. In November, the Post combined with Buckhannon ' s Post 126 lor a hayride with their dates to Central West Virginia Council ' s Scout Camp on the Middle Fork River and an evening ol square dancing in the rustic camp dining hall, reached 1 a thrilling barge trip across the- river. The two expeditions ol die winter led the explorers in January to Wagon Wheel Cave and nearby Natural Bridge in southern Upshur County lor a day of exploration and an eve- ning ' s campfire. In February, the Post con- ducted its third annual trip to a wild cavern in Pocahontas County. The boys spent the day exploring the huge cavern chambers beneath Cheat Mountain. The outstanding feature of the cave is the picturesque waterfall reached only by wading a cold cave stream. l ' nsi Chap- lain Jack Ferrell conducted the usual church service in one of the great rooms of the cave. Several other outdoor events are planned for late spring. A stimulating feature of the year has been the series ol monthly meetings held in the Hud- kins-Kelly-Young Museum in the Science Hall.

Scientists Advance Chemistry Amid lest tubes. Bunson burners, and other laboratory apparatus, the members of the Ben- zene Ring work to advance the study of chem- istry. These scientists have been working on Wesleyan ' s campus longer than any other or- ganization. They began back in 1920. when Dr. Nicholas Hyma and his quantitative analysis class real- ized the need of a science club on the Wesleyan campus. The Ring became a chapter of the Student Affiliates of the American Chemical Society in 1949. One of the first and most important achieve- ments of the Benzene Ring was the establish- ment of a science library for the use of its members. The group continued its scientific studies by visiting various industrial areas of chemical interest. At the regular bi-monthly meetings, the group hears lectures by men prom- inent in the Chemical World. Throughout the years the Benzene Rin;,; has had many projects and activities. Perhaps the most traditional event is the crowning of the Camphor King, a c eremony in honor of the student of Organic Chemistry who prepared the purest and largest amount of synthetic camphor. The students make camphor from turpentine, according to the classical method. Another project which the Benzene Ring hopes to execute is Open House at Haymond Science Hall. Non-science students and Buck- hannon citizens would then have the opportun- ity to observe the Science Department in action. Several of the members fascinated the audi- ence with some of the tricks of chemical science when the group performed for an assembly program. In 1950. the organization originated the Strawberry Breakfast, which will be an annual dinner for alumni and graduating members. All chemistry majors, who maintain at least a B average, are eligible for membership in the Benzene Ring. The group is directed by its founder. Dr. Nicholas Hyma. Professor of Chemistry. This year the Benzene Ring, a group of about forty members, was led by the following officers: John Tucker. President: Marjorie Ann Young, Vice-president; Ruth Miller. Secretary; and Curtis Shrewsberry, Treasurer. F. T. A. Learns From Experts For the Future Teachers oi America, learn ing a profession is a loi l Inn.

Attains Objectives The Christian Service Fellowship was found- ed to provide worship, service, and fellowship for all students preparing for full-time service in the Church. This school year, the forty mem- bers have eagerly worked to obtain these objec- tives. Worship — Every Tuesday afternoon through- out the school year worship services were con- ducted for and by the students. The sincerity of the student leaders enhanced a creative, spiritual atmosphere. Often at these meetings the group had the privilege of listening to guest speakers on campus. Among the guests were representa- tives of the leading Methodist schools of theol- ogy. The annual communion service, conducted by Dr. Brown, was the outstanding worship service of the year. It was both beautiful and spiritually uplifting. Service — In service the C. S. F. extended its arm further than in any past year. Forty-five students, divided into nine deputation teams, were engaged in youth work in surrounding churches. Twice a month students held worship services for the patients of the Weston State Mental Hospital. At Christmas two parties were held for the under-privileged school children of the Buckhannon area. The parties provided each child with fun, refreshments, and a gift directly from Santa Claus. A total of 1 70 chil- dren were served by the two parties. These service projects provided interesting experiences and opportunities for personal development. They also provided an opportunity for creative service for which the Christian spirit constantly seeks. Fellowship — The addition of monthly Thurs- day evening meetings in the Student Union added much to this year ' s fellowship program. The group had fun singing, folk-dancing, and playing games after the business meetings. Bringing a well-rounded and successful year to a grand ending, the C. S. F. held its annual pic- nic in the spring. Officers — Norman Allers. President: John Ferrell. Vice-president; June Walker. Secretary: anil Dick Powell. Treasurer.

Circuit Riders Take To The Road Each Sunday morning, as the sun creeps up from behind the hills, the twentieth century circuit-riders take to the road. Crowded into their handy cany -all, the Wesleyan student ministers are bounced and jostled over winding country roads, as they journey to serve various rural churches. I ' he Sabbath is no day of rest for these active ministers. A typical Sunday includes Sunday School and a sermon in the morning, service calls in the afternoon, and Youth Fellowship programs in the evening. Bountious meals al the tables of generous farmers provide ample energy for the day ' s activities. Wesleyan ministerial students have been serving twenty-one churches in the Clarksburg, Elkins, and Weston districts for three years. Each member has charge ol one or two churches Eoi a school year. Such active service gives the Fourteen students the opportunity to practice the techniques I preaching and serving what they learn in their weekly class. Mi. Sidney Davis, director of the Group Ministry, teaches this class with the assistance l the district superintendent. Dr. Patterson. The students receive one hour credit for this class. Grateful members ol the rural ( lunches repay the students in many ways. Besides maintaining the carry-all. a station wagon donated to i lu- group l a friend of the Methodist Church, lhe pay the students lor their weekly services. Ibis money is pooled and each student receives an equal share. The project of the Group Ministry has a three-fold purpose. To the students h gives ex- perience that will pave the way to their lull time sen ice in the church: to the rural lunches, it means programs that they could noi afford otherwise; to Wesleyan, it means ,i reputation .is .1 si h ml ill Christian service. The (.roup Ministers are several I the cam pus ' must energetic students. Besides theii regu lar Sunday work, which requires many hours ol preparation, some have part-time jobs; some are active in other campus organizations, and others maintain high academic standing. 79 HOUSE GOVERNING BOARD Seated, left to right: Betty Jo Birckhead, Martha Hunt, Mary Kritzer, Margaret Jane Cook. Standing: Grace Wolfe, Mary Peyton, Mary Cheng, Joan Kendall. Governors Also Plan Parties One of the most efficient organizations on campus is the House Governing Board, whose business it is to provide a democratic system of government for the women ' s residences. Organ- ized in 1 946, the Board helps Wesleyan women to strive for the betterment of their school, strengthening of their character, and develop- ment of their social life. The House Board, which includes one rep- resentative from each class, meets each week to formulate discipline and to plan its various activities. The House Board has various func- tions. One of its chief duties is disciplining the women who live on campus. Campuses and other penalties are decided by the House Board, which hears special cases. House rules are form- ed and enforced for the benefit of all women living within the halls. Special parties for the women are arranged by the Board. Pajama parties, featuring fun and refreshments are held in the drawing room once a month. Birthdays are observed each month with special candle-light dinners. For the De- cember dinner, the women wear formal gowns. Arranging a seating plan for dining-hall meals is another duty of the House Board. This is done by drawing names. New seating plans are posted every three weeks. The women are al- lowed to sit where they choose over the week- ends and at breakfast. Functions of the House Board are carried out by committees chosen by the president. These committees are composed of women who are not members of the Board. All women living in college residence are eligible to vote for and to be elected members of the House Board. The officers of the Board. which are elected in the spring, consist of presi- dent from the senior class, a vice-president from either the junior or senior class, a secretary from the junior class, and a treasurer from the sopho- more class. This year ' s officers are: Martha Hunt. Presi- dent: Joan Kendall. Vice-president: Mary Krit- zer. Secretary: Betty Jo Birckhead, Treasurer; Margaret Jane Cook, Senior representative; Mary Peyton, Junior representative; Grace Wolfe, Sophomore representative: and Mary Ellen Cheng, Freshman representative. 80 Education By Radio Is Goal of the Radio Club Wesleyan ' s Radio Club was organized to de- velop its educational opportunities for the students interested in learning microphone techniques, radio diction, dramatization, and principles of broadcasting. In discussing the problem of how to be effe tive via the microphone, the task was to adopt modern principles ot effective speech to their use in the particular case of radio. It was recog nized by the group that the best radio speaker is the one who follows most closely the dictates of a competent text book on public speaking. Principles of good announcing were studied by the club. The constant change of style from one form to another helped announcers to learn to handle all types of public speaking. Direct conversation, the cardinal principle of good speech, was practiced and the psy hological effect ol radio on the audience was carefully analyzed. Man is a gregarious animal, and much more so in his mind than in his body. He may like to go alone for a walk. Hut he hates to stand alone in his opinion. — Santavana. This belief is an axiom in the field of radio education. Education, moreover, requires more courage as we reach its upper reaches. Educa- tion, the progressive enlargement ol man ' s views ol himsell and ol the universe about him, is everybody ' s business. It is two-fold — individual and social. Interpreting radio education in these terms, Wesleyan ' s Radio Club attempted to per- form its duties for the student body. The club cast and rehearsed a dramatization ol Charles Dickens ' A Christmas Carol for the December broadcast. Because ol weather conditions and icy roads, the cast could not gel to Clarksburg for the performance. It is hoped that next year the broadcasting studio in the new Music Hall will be available lor campus broadcasting, and that a tape re- corder will be used lor performances ol musical and speech programs. Jim Snyder was elected president ol this group, and Hallie Lu Hallam. secretary. 1 he adviser was Miss Esther Crisman. K VI)I ) CLUB Firs! Row. led to ri B ht: Neil Penn. Don McKita. Jim Snyder.

Wesleyan Students Make Music Wesleyan musicians express their talent through three mediums, the choir, the band, and the orchestra. These three organizations provide entertainment for the listener, as well as experience for the performer. Membership in the college choir is open to all students of West Virginia Wesleyan College who love to sing. Its purpose is to instill spirit- ual and cultural growth through the increasing knowledge and appreciation of sacred music. The choir also attempts to interpret to others, by means of public performance, the artistic and spiritual message of music. The outstanding activity of the choir is the annual tour. About thirty students sang in churches and high schools throughout the south- ern part of West Virginia during the week of touring. The regular performances in chapel and the spring concert complete the choir ' s activities for the year. Under the direction of Professor Charles W. Forlines, the choir meets three hours a week. Participation in the choir may or may not be for credit. Outstanding in orange and black uniforms, the West Virginia Wesleyan College band is a colorful and musical spectacle on the football field. This year the band performed at every home football game, and also accompanied the team to the Waynesburg game in November. Besides its performance at football games, this year the marching band led the Homecom- ing parade, while the concert band presented assembly concerts. These concerts gave the musi- cians a chance to play semi-classical and novelty music. Having been discontinued during World War II. the band was reorganized in 1946 by C. Buell Agey. Professor Agey rehearses the band every Monday evening in the Music Hall. One hour credit is given for participation in the band. First row, lefc (o right — William Townsend.

Firfl Inter-Collegiate Hockey Cjame ' •Played at Wesleyan Members ol the Delia Psi Kappa, national fraternity tor women majoring in physical edu- cation, had a busy year. Establishing a new record, the girls began the season by defeating the Davis and Elkins girls ' hockey team, 2-0. The game, played on the Wesleyan athletic field, was the first official inter-collegiate hockey game to be played in the stale of West Virginia. Their second athletic adventure was a trip to Maryland for a playday at Frostburg State Teachers College in November. Along with women from other colleges, the Wesleyan rep- resentatives spent the day playing volleyball, basketball, ping pong, shuffleboard, and bad- minton. Sue Berry, Jenny Belle Weaver, Pat Meade, Martha Linger, Mary Kritzer, and Miss Charlotte Knepshield, the group ' s adviser, rep- resented Wesleyan. Since its beginning on the Wesleyan campus, the Delta Psi Kappa has carried out many pro- jects for the benefit of the school. Projects of the past include the erection of the flag-pole on the athletic field, and the clock in the gym- nasium. Plans for the future include the placing of a public ink-well in the hall of the Adminis- tration building. Each year, the Delta Psi Kappa girls sponsor the programs for the tournaments, and the coat- checking for all Wesleyan home basketball games. Besides the regular monthly meetings, the Delia Psi Kappa holds two open meetings for the public. The annual Founders ' Day program. presented in the fall, recognizes the birth of the fraternity. Each member contributes pennies equal to the number of years the organization has been in existence. This year the program was a vesper service led by Reverend James Roy of the First Baptist Church of Buckhannon. At the second open meeting. Bill Lewis, of West Virginia University, called figures for square dancing. Alpha Eta, the only Delta Psi Kappa chapter in the state, is under the advisory of Miss Char- lotte Knepshield, the National Province Direc- tor of the fraternity. The Delta Psi Kappa girls strive to live up to their motto, A sound mind and a sound body. 86 c Panhellenic Tromotes Friendly Relations To promote a friendly interfraternity rela tionship, the three sororities. Alpha Gamma Delta, Alpha Delta Pi. and Alpha Xi Delta. formed the Panhellenic Council. Consisting of two representatives from each sorority, the Council establishes rushing rules and plans co-operative programs for the year. Through its work the group endeavors to maintain a high standard of fraternal and school life, lo luither intellectual and scholastic ac- complishments, and to be a forum lor the dis- cussion and solving of social problems. Panhellenic activities began last fall with a lea lor Freshman girls planning to join a soror- ity. The Council also sponsored a Spaghetti Supper; a Tapping dance, recognizing two outstanding pledges from each sorority: and a workshop. PANHELLENIC Sealed, left to right: Jean Burton.

A group of fun-loving, energetic women, the Alpha Omicron chapter takes part in every cam- pus activity and thinks up many of its own. Fun began with the Circus rush party last fall, where Barbara Harless, Margaret Jane Cook, and Jean Burton clowned like professionals: where Carol Jean Crow told encouraging fortunes; and where everyone ate pop corn and won prizes. Within a few days, nine girls were pledged to the sorority. Homecoming was a big event for the Alpha Gamma Delta just as it was for everyone at Wesleyan. Dipping into its supply of artistic talent, the sorority built their float around the slogan Put Bethany Through the Mill. Seated beside the wind-mill were the little Dutch girl and boy, Wihna Johnson and Jean Burton. In addition to the float, the chapter enured Pat Winston and Mary Butlington as Senior and Sopho- more attendents to the Homecoming queen. Like all Wesleyanites, the Alpha Gams like to have parties.

This is only one of the distinguishing characteristics of the Alpha Xi Delta. One of the largest organizations on campus, the sorority is composed of loyal, energetic girls, who work together to carry out many projects and sponsor many activities. The girls ' first achievement of the year was winning second prize for their Homecoming float. Freeze ' em Out. Bobcats!

The year ' s social activities climaxed with the Rose For- mal dance, held in the Spring. The Alpha Xis are thoughtful ol the unfortunate children ol Buck- h, union, and each year they give the children a Christmas party. Besides the usual candy and cake, the girls gave gifts of clothing, toys, hooks, and games. Some new, some old and recon- ditioned, the gills were chosen accord- ing to the age. size, and interest ol the child. Although it reached West Virginia Wesleyan only two years ago. the Alpha Xi Delta fraternity was found- ed at Lombard College. Galesburg, Illinois, on April 17. 1893. Of the ten women who founded the fraternity, two are still living. The large frater- nity has sixty-five chapters throughout i he nation. T i| tn bottom: Look .11 m jacket Snsir ' s been trained.

Like all things raised in the Sunny South, the Alpha Delta Pi blossomed into a large and vigorous organization, ex- panding from its origin at Wesleyan Female College in Macon, to colleges all over the United States, in one hun- dred short years. This summer dele- gates from the Gamma Kappa chapter will attend the National Centennial Convention in Macon, Georgia. The distinguished sorority reached West Virginia Wesleyan three years ago. The school year of 1950-51 has been one of its fullest. Activities be- gan October 5, when Pat Wilson, Winifred Post, and Clara Sarounie be- came active members. After the Alpha Delta Pi rush party on October 11, eight girls pledged. The Alpha Delta Pi ' s take part in all campus activities. Work began Homecoming weekend, when the sor- ority entered a float bearing six Alpha Delta Pis in the parade, and presented the musical skit Jamboree Jones for WYsleyantics.

Alpha Psi Omega. First, of course, he must display his outstanding talent on stage. This year ' s seven active members continued to participate in the acting and directing of Playshop productions. Starting the new year right, the group presented a one-act play during Freshman Week. The stars were Jack Ferrell, a frenzied husband; Mildred Hathaway, who at- tempted to psycho-analyze him; and Joan Ken- dall, their bewildered guest. Each member participated in a skit for Wes- leyantics. A parody on the old fairy-tale, the skit was a modern version of Cinderella, written in verse form. Several of the group played in the Playshop ' s first big production of the year. Minick. Jack Ferrell, and Joanna Felton played leading roles, while R. L. Moore portrayed a dandy. A night of one-act plays offered the opport- tunity for student directing. Colleen Burke, Mildred Hathaway and Joan Kendall tried their skill at the art of calling signals for other actors Fhe group ' s activities also included just sit- ting back and watching others perform. During the year they traveled to Fairmont, the home of the Alpha Psi Omega, to see the school ' s pro- ductions. Since the fraternity originated at Fairmont Slate College in 1925. it has expanded to 230 chapters throughout the United States and Canada. Alpha Rho chapter of Wesleyan was the forty-first to be installed. In addition to its dramatic enterprizes. the Alpha Psi Omega sponsors other activities. The most important activity is the annual formal dinner at the close of the school year. Not intending to take the place of the school dramatic club, the Alpha Psi Omega is an honor society for those who rise above the norm of the Playshop. Initiations are planned for each semester, in order that qualifying seniors may take an active part during their last semester. Two players qualified for initiation in Feb- ruarv. They were Barbara Grizzle and Barbara West. 94 Inter fraternity Council I ' lu- tnterfraternity Council ol West Vir- ginia Wesleyan was organized iliis past year 10 govern the social fraternities on the campus.

A year old on January 7, 1951. this social fraternity for men swiftly developed into a large and active organization. After a successful rush party last fall, the fraternity added twenty-one pledges to its roster of nearly forty active members. Among the ranks, are numerous campus leaders, athletes, and outstanding scholars. Each Theta Chi is a member of at least one other campus organ- ization, and twenty-five serve as officers. As a group, the men work together to reap many merits for the glory of Theta Chi. Home- coming. 1950. was an especially significant event in the history of the chapter. Their unique float won first prize in the annual parade, while the Ballet a la The a Chi performed with grace and precision in Wesleyantics. At the pre-game thuse, the musical Theta Chi ' s introduced the pep song Oh, Who ' s Gonna Win? The Theta Chis are bustin ' out all over socially. By having a social event each week, the men have experienced every type of entertain- ment from a New England cook-out to formal dances. Some of their chief occasions were the Anniversary Dance in January, the Spring Dance, and the Christmas party. One of the chief sources of recreation for the men is participation in intramural sports.

Seven of the winning Bobcats were Alpha Sigs. In true Christmas spirit, the Alpha Sigs played host to a very fine group of under-privileged children.

Basketball The Wesleyan Bobcats under their new coach Hank Ellis showed much promise at the in- itial part of the season, but then weakened, due to injuries and losses of valuable players. The Cats in the opening weeks seemed the team to beat, as they sported a 4 — Conference record and had nosed out W. Va. Tech 50 — 48, the team slated to cop the number one slot. As the season progressed, the loss of Billy Wilfong and Bill Reape definitely weakened the Bobcat squad. A groin injury to lanky Loren Brake and minor sprained ankles to various key members again cut down the efficiency needed to beat teams such as D E, Glenville and W. Va. Tech. Without question, the highlight of the season came when the Wesleyan five journeyed up to Morgantown to tangle with the powerful Moun- taineers of W. Va. University. The Cats sur- prised the pre-dopers and maintained a com- fortable lead throughout most of the contest, thanks to the efforts of Coogie Leffard, Billy Wilfong and Loren Brake. Leffard, who played one of the greatest games of his career, held the formidable Mark Workman to a meager hand- ful of points in the first half. Here, fate inter- vened, and Leffard was forced to the sidelines owing to a sprained ankle. Workman then broke up the ball game by amassing a grand total of 39 points. One reason for the early success of the Wes- leyan squad was the element of playing together as a team. For the first six or seven contests the scoring was evenly divided between three and sometimes four players. 108 Left to right — S. Rois, G. Bright. T. Morar L. Brake. C. Elkins. D. Malcolm.

Outstanding for the Orange and Black cause- was sophomore Loren Brake, who dropped 226 markers through the hoop and possessed an aver- age of 11.9 points per game. Though sidelined five games due to his groin injury, he presented himself as the most consistent Bobcat. The Gold dust twins from McKeesport, Ted Come and Coogie Leffard. both of whom are sophomores, proved valuable assets to Coach Ellis. Tommy Carroll, whose constant aggressive spirit won him a spot on the All-Tournament team, had the honor of being the only starting Freshman on the Buckhannon squad. Rounding out the starting quintet was Bobby Griffis. Fill- ing in admirably after the loss of Bill Wilfong, Griffis started slowly, reaching his peak in the second Fairmont State game when he amassed eleven points. Coach Ellis ' sixth man was Chuck Elkins. The blond o Elkins remained in the background until the second Salem encoun- ter when he dented the cords for 22 points. Finally terminating their ' 50- ' 51 season with a 13-1 1 Conference record, the Cats moved into the annual W.V.I.C. tournament with high hopes.

Owing to the early date of publication, a summary of the 1951 season cannot be included. The 1950 Bobcat squad ended a fair season with three victories and six defeats. After they had opened the season by defeating Alderson- Broaddus 1 1-4 and Fairmont State 8-1. the Cats felt the pangs of defeat to West Virginia Tech 9-3. Taking to the road, the Bobcats journeyed to Potomac State where they droppecj a close contest 1 1-7. Sporting a 2-2 record, the Bobcats played host to the powerful Golden Eagles of Morris Har- vey. Four Wesleyan pitchers took to the mound in a vain effort to stop the 15-6 slaughter. With Ab. Takacs. Wesleyan ' s regular shortstop, twirl- ing for the Rossmen, the Cats dropped their fourth straight to Glenville State 17-9. The Salem Tigers journeyed the 26 miles from Clarksburg to administer to the Cats their fifth straight loss 8-2. Wesleyan took to the road once again and absorbed their final loss of the season at the hand of the Bethany Bisons 6-1. Lefty Bob Sulli- van took the hill for the Cats in the last encoun- ter of the year against the A-B Battlers, at Phil- ippi. In a slugfest the Wesleyanites emerged victorious 1 1-9. Lack of practice, due to inclement weather, caused the Cats to fall short of expectations. Senior catcher. Butch Gentry, pulled a shoulder muscle and did not see action during the latter part of the season. This was the last season for the seniors, Clint Allman. Butch Gentry. Bob Meyers. Jim Primozic, Bob Sullivan and Abner Takacs. Out of the eighteen members of the 1950 squad, ten are on hand tor the ensuing season. Coach Ellis will have to build from the bottom with a mixture of eager freshmen and a few veterans. First string veterans practically sure of berths are: Chuck Elkins on the initial sack, and pitchers Bobby Keane and Matt Kuhn. 112 Golf and Tennis Owing to t lie early date ol publication a sum- mary of golf and tenuis will have to be omitted. ()l the two sports, tennis lias achieved official recognition from the athletic department, while golf has temporarily been disbanded due to lack of interest. Postponements owing to rain, and difficulties of arranging schedules, proved to be the bane of the local tennis hopes. This year ' s squad will undoubtedly be built around veterans Graham Kenneweg, R. L. Moore, and Steve Keoseian. 113 , ., fle ' «, ul9 '  ♦ F - r -• % 3K CN.
