Muhlenberg College A man beloved by all whom he contacts. A person whose achievements and accomplishments all of us, as students, may well use as a guide for our activities. His success lies not alone in the academic fields but branches into all phrases of business, financial, religious, and civil activities. May we as students at Wittenberg give thanks to our President, Rees Edgar Tulloss, for his untiring efforts to further this college and his students. Paye Tivelvc Dean ('. C. Shatzer A. B., A. M., Sc. I). In his role as Dean of the College, Dean Shatzer’s influence ex- tends to every activity both curricular and extra-curricular on Wit- tenberg's campus. All of the students who know him as a scholar and a gentleman admire and love him. We give a note of appreciation to Dean Shatzer for the addition he makes to Wittenberg College. DEAN SHATZER Dean Ruth Immell AB., M. A. In her fifteen years of service to Wittenberg Dean Ruth Immell may well be proud of her record. The contacts she makes in her official and social life are a valuable addition to any women's college career. Dean B. H. Pershing A. B., B. I)., A. M., Ph. I). Dean Pershing has been giving able assistance and advice to the male element at Wittenberg for the past thirteen years. Students who know him find him to be as sympathetic and as approachable as any student. He may well be proud of his typically Wittenberg spirit. DEAN IMMELL DEAN PERSHING DEANS Page Thirteen ROW 1 H.

We the underclassmen who must carry the load you have laid aside wish each and every one of you the Best of Luck for a successful career.

Stress this past year has been placed upon present campus situations specifi- cally. the editorial policy of the Torch has been to make the students conscious of the true value of extra-curricular activities, and thus limit unprofitable participation. Two further achievements are noteworthy; a special edition after the Dayton game, and an increase in campus coverage. Staff organization has been greatly improved upon and a larger number of competent persons trained for editorship with the appointment of the editor and the business manager made by a special committee of faculty members and students, rather than left to an open political election. To witt: to provide a form of amusement for students for a mere pittance of one dollar a year, or fifteen cents in single snatches. No high-sound- ing purpose promotes the Witt, merely the achieve- ment of a cheerful thought or the high-lights of the social whirl fulfills the subscription quota. Wittenberg day by day is reviewed by enter- prising staff members who ‘‘get around” and wish to keep their fellow-students informed on campus gossip with malice toward some” or amusement for many — just as they wish.

At the outset of the season the C'ardinal and ( ream tangled with Dayton's powerhouse and was hopelessly outclassed. After losing the next to Ohio Northern's Polar Bears, the battered Tigers were pitted against the Tartars of Carnegie 'Tech and showed surprisingly well by scoring 13 points, their first of the season. After losing two conference tilts the Lutherans began to click by edging Marietta, Oberlin, and Denison, all highly touted teams, and wound up the grid year by sinking Kenyon.

Wittenberg fought gamely enough but was overpowered and out- classed from the start. By taking to the air almost entirely in the final half, the Tigers edged the Flyers in first downs, 7-6. OHIO NORTHERN Riddled by injuries, but fighting gamely, the Tigers eased up long enough in the third period to allow the Polar Bears to push across two touch- downs for a 12-0 lacing. The Lutherans’ only scoring threat in the first period was nipped on Ohio Northerns 21-yard line. Wittenberg out- played the Northern team completely in the first half by accounting for three of their seven first downs. Page Ninety RANKIN —SCHEUTZOW SCHIKDKMANTKL MARSHALL — MOFFAT — UPTKGRAPH JULIAN CARNEGIE TECH Staging a determined fight and playing a brand of football which won enthusiastic response from 5000 fans, the Cardinal and Cream broke into the scoring column by going down to the mighty 'Par- tars of Carnegie Tech, 32-13. Only 15 Wittenberg gridders saw action during the grueling contest, while Tech sent in fresh men time after time until the total number of players had reached 34. BOWLING GREEN Three times the Fighting Lutherans turned back Bowling Green drives deep into touchdown terri- tory. but once they were unable to stop the Falcons who gained a 7-0 victory for the Tigers’ second conference loss. A brilliant Bowling Green passing attack in the second quarter spelled defeat for the Lutherans. Bud Law and Emil Lisak were the most consistent ground gainers for the Tigers. Page Ninety-one MARIETTA Snapping their four-game losing streak, the Lutherans scored their first victory of the season at the expense of the Pioneers of Marietta, 13-0. The Cardinal and Cream were masters of the situation from start to finish, their opponents never seriously threatening to cross the goal. Bud Law, halfback, and Chatlain, sophomore end. scored the touchdowns, with Lisak converting once. OB HR LIN Doing their part to make the annual home- coming event a complete success, the Lutherans handed Oberlin's Yocmen their initial defeat of the season, 9-6. A field goal kicked by Emil Lisak gave the Tigers their margin of victory. Forced to come from behind to capture the contest, the Lutherans never gave up and were rewarded when Lisak galloped 50 yards to knot the count and later surged ahead on the placement.

The triumph will go down in the records as one of the biggest upsets in the Ohio conference grid race. The Lutherans gained the distinction of being the only eleven to chalk up two touchdowns on the Big Red team this year and the second to score on it. KENYON Four seniors ended their collegiate grid careers, and the squad ended their season when they sunk the Kenyon Lords 26-0 in a conference contest. It was Wittenberg's fourth straight league victory against two setbacks. Emil Lisak, senior half- back, scored three touchdowns. Tom Rankin, senior end, scored the other.

ASKETBALL Varsity Basketball Strengthened by sophomore talent, the Fighting Lutherans rolled up an im- pressive record for the 1938-39 season by capturing all but one conference tilt while dropping their league title to Wooster. The Tigers lost their initial loop fray to Marietta and then went on to sink their remaining 13 opponents to wind up in second place in conference play. This great quintet, comparable to the champs of last season, made the loss of their title easier to hear by smashing three records during the course of the season and displaying a brand of flashy ball that left little to be desired. Coach Stobbs’ charges won the first two contests on their annual warm-up trip before bowing to Muhlenberg college. These victories ran their consecutive win streak to 17 contests having won the last 15 games of the preceding season. With the squad not quite in peak form, they lost a heartbreaker to the Marietta five by a score of 45-41. They later avenged this defeat by sinking the Pioneers 48-37. Page Ninety-four 1 U'H STOBBS The Lutherans trimmed their arch rivals, the Dayton Myers, twice. Once at Dayton which was well attended by a migratory crowd of Wittenbergers, and later on the home floor. The peak in thrills was reached when the Tigers, led by Frank Shannon, barely edged the Scientists of Case. 39-36. in a hectic final minute of play. The Stobbsmen wrote a pair of new records for the Cardinal and Cream archives in the initial encounter with Findlay. With the offense hitting on all five, the Luth- erans shattered their high scoring record of last season by wearing out the meshes with 84 points. The former high of 79 markers was made against Ohio Northern last season. In the Findlay fray, Fom Rankin, senior guard, bettered Frank Shannons individual scoring mark of 24 points, by making 13 field goals count for 26 markers. In the final game of the season, the Stobbsmen sunk another Big Four outfit in trimming the Streaks of John Carroll at Cleveland. 62-38, winding up the season with 13 consecutive wins. Wooster’s Scots cinched top honors by capturing 17 games, without a loss. Coach Stobbs’ record here as head cage mentor shows 101 games won against 53 in the loss column. Ilis chart now shows a co-championship, a second and a fourth in the Buckeye league, and two fourths, a second, and a championship in the Ohio conference. 1939 Basketball Review Embarking upon their annual eastern tour preparatory to the regular conference schedule, the Lutherans ran their win streak to 17 when they took victories over Juniata. 38-52, and Scranton. 41-43. The cagers ran into difficulty with Muhlenberg and Swarthmore, losing both contests, 36-34. and 46-34. They came back with a victory over I'psala, 44-39. and then dropped two more warm-up frays. Lehigh won, 50-40. and Washing- ton was the victor, 60-34. The Lutherans climaxed the tour with a 46-43 triumph over I-oyola to break even with four wins and four losses. At Marietta the Stobbsmen were edged in their first league tilt. 45-41. In the initial home game, and the second loop contest, the Tigers trimmed a highly-touted Ml. I’nion quintet, 44-36. At Granville the Lutherans defeated the Big Red of Denison. 50-41. The Muskies of Muskingum went down to defeat here in anothet conference match, 58-39. An under-rated Otterbein five put up a stubborn fight before bowing to the Cardinal and (’ream at Westerville, 36-31. With a migratory crowd of 200 Wittcnbergers cheering them on, the Stobbsmen defeated the Flyers at Dayton in a rough game, 39-34. Page Ninety-six For the third consecutive time, Ohio Northern’s Polar Bears had over 70 points piled up against them; this time 71-47, in a home tilt. One of the seasons most satisfying victories came over the Case squad here in a thriller won by the Tigers, 39-36. The Findlay cagers managed to roll up 50 points in going down to the Lutherans at Findlay, 59-50. In bowling over a quintet from Bowling Green, 50-30. the Luther- ans rang up their ninth straight victory in a home game. This time Findlay’s defense was punctured repeatedly, for the Tigers amassed 84 points here to Findlay's 59. An early defeat was avenged when the Pioneers of Marietta were sunk here. 48-87. The damage was done, however. Dayton took another lacing when the Tigers trimmed them here, In the final contest of the season the Streaks of John Carroll went down to defeat at Cleveland, 62-38. In all. the Fighting Lutherans garnered 413 goals and 240 charity tosses, good for a total of 1066 points. First Row Whitaker, Meyer, Kowalczyk, A. Albright, Thomas, Berg.

Last spring saw Wittenberg win another Ohio C onference Champ ionship. The baseball team walked away with the honors being de- feated only by Ohio Northern in a 16-15 slugfest. These victories were due to a large degree by the enviable pitching of Frank Shannon who lost only the game to Ohio Northern out of the eight he pitched. This year Wittenberg’s team has been undefeated and from all advanced reports the championship will go again to the Lutherans. This was Shannon's fifth straight win of the year. Swimming Facing a tough schedule with only seasoned mermen, Fred Bige- low and Frank Thorpe, the Lutheran swimmers took a ducking in dropping seven meets. Under the tutelage of Coach Wilbur 1). West, completing his second year as swimming mentor, the tankmen managed to salvage one struggle, sinking the Middletown Y. M. C. A. here, 56-44. In the conference meet held at Kenyon on March 3 and 4. the swimmers failed to earn a single point, finishing last in a field of six entries. Kenyon easily defended her league title. In two seasons the Tiger mermen have captured but two meets, having defeated Fenn in the opener last year.

Page One Hundred One MEN'S INTRAMURALS After having dropped indoor baseball and fall horseshoes from an enlarged intramural schedule last year, intramural managers this year decided to eliminate the boxing tournament from the program. Stating that a suitable date for the tournament could not be determined upon, the managers voted to resume the popular sport next year. TAG FOOTBALL Repeating their championship drive of last season, Alpha Tau Omega repeated in the “A league to retain their title. Theta Kappa Nu took first honors in the Bv league, but were trim- med by the A. T. O.’s in the playoff. VOLLEY BALL “A league volleyball resulted in a close race with Phi Kappa Psi capturing the trophy. Alpha Tau Omega took second place. In the 4 B” division, Alpha Tau Omega was undefeated. Theta Kappa Nu placed second. PING PONG With a spirited rally. Beta Theta Pi spurted forward in the final contests to take first place over Delta Sigma Phi and Gamma. HANDBALL In a listless series of handball matches, Alpha Tau Omega and Phi Kappa Psi tied for first hon- ors. Phi Kappa Psi received the trophy after a playoff. BASKETBALL With competition in the “A league hotly contested from start to finish, the race ended in a three-way tie for first place, shared by Delta Sigma Phi. Alpha 'Tau Omega, and Phi Gamma Delta. Delta Sigma Phi took the “A league trophy by virtue of their victory in the playoffs. In contrast, “B league compe- tition was dominated by Alpha Tau Omega, who captured eight consecutive contests, to enjoy an undefeated season. SWIMMING Louis Capo and Allen Lehmkuhl paced the Dorm league to victory in the mermen contest. The Dorm swimmers scored 26 points to lead the field. 'Their closest rivals. Alpha 'Tau Omega and Phi Kappa Psi, shared second place with 17 tallies each. FOI L SHOOTING Capturing 236 points out of 350, Alpha Tau Omega won the team laurels in the foul shooting event. After each entry had sunk 53 out of 70 baskets, John Strub defeated Robert Gross in a playoff for individual honors. Page One Hundred Two BASKETHALL VOLLEYBALL The Alpha Xi's captured first place in the Intramural Volley- ball, while close behind were the Beta Phi's in second place. The Alpha Delts defeated the Chi Omega’s for third place. POSTURE Chi Omega gained first place in the annual posture contest with second place going to last year s winner, the Alpha Delts. Kappa Delta placed third, with the Alpha Xi's and the Beta Phi's tied for forth place. Indiviual honors this year went to Marion Turner, an Independent. Betty French and Louanna France captured second and third places respectively. PING PONG Alpha Xi Delta acquire the Ping Pong title after a series of fine matches. Second place was tied with Beta Phi Alpha and Chi Omega sharing the honors. The Alpha Delts came in third. Indi- vidual honors went to Conrad and I odd who won the two doubles. For the second time in thirteen years the Independents captured the Basketball trophy. They went through the entire season without a defeat. The Alpa Xi's came in second, losing a single game to the Independents, and the Alpha Dell’s placed third with four games won and two lost. SWIMMING The Alpha Delts captured first place to get the swimming trophy due largely to the swimming of Betty French who won four first places and with the aid of Doris Pickling set a new |M ol record for the Pandem Race. The Independ- ents won second place and the Chi O's took third honors. SUMMARY With the intramural season practically over the Alpha Xi's are still in the lead for the intramural trophy. However, the Alpha Delts are in second place, 25 points behind the leaders. The Independ- ents. close behind are in third place with 31 points. As yet we are not going to forecast who will be the winner of the Intramural Trophy for this year.

Almost a centenarian. Beta Theta Pi was founded Aug. 8. 1839 at Miami, by Messrs. Knox, (Jordon, Smith. Duncan. Marshall. Linton, Ryan, and Hardin. This summer plans are being made to celebrate its 100th anniversary. The local chapter of Beta Theta Pi started in 1867 here at Wittenberg, the second fraternity on the campus. It has since it was founded claim- ed many faculty memliers as alumni, among them being Shatzer, Larimer, Weaver, and Zimmerman. Another claim to prominence on the campus is the fact that the business managerships of campus publications are controlled by the Betas. As statistics we name the publication “Beta Theta Pi,” the size of their chapter roll is 87, the flower is the rose, and the colors of the fraternity are pink and blue. The organization is the first to be founded west of the Alleghenies, and one of the “Famous Miami Triad.” Illustrious Betas in- clude Senators Borah and LaFollette; Owen D. Young; and Jay X.

Beta Iota of Delta Sigma Phi has grown rapidly in the past few years and become a rival of any of the other older brother fraternities on the campus. Beginning with the local Sadhe Aleph. in 1922, and joining the local fraternity of Alpha Theta lpha in 1927, the local group went national in 1932 and joined Delta Sigma Phi, which or- ganization was founded Dec. 10, 1899, at the College of the City of Xew York. To date there are 43 chapters in the national organization, but expansion is kept slow, to keep the fraternity “limited to the better colleges and universities.” Scholarship, singing, and Varsity Night cups add fame to the local chapter, having won cups in all these fields in the past few years. Illustrious Delta Sigs monopolize the music world, with Jan Garber, Hal Kemp, Ted Weems, John Scott Trotter, and “Skinny” Ennis all being members of the organization. Other famous men are Fritz Crisler, football coach at Michigan, and Senator James J. Davis. Nationally, the fraternity offers a scholarship cup to the chapter with the highest scholarship. The fraternity publication is the “Carnation;” the llower is the carnation; and the colors green and white.

Before 1884 there was on the campus a group of men banded into a local group called the “Sigma Society.” This group went national in 1884 and became the Sigma chapter of the 78 chapters of Phi Gamma Delta. “The Phi Gamma Delta ” is its publication: the purple clematis, its flower: and royal purple and white, its colors. It has contributed such illustrious men as Douglas, Krapp. and Raymond to the list of well-known Phi Gams. Other illustrious Fijis are Newton 1). Baker.

Phi Mu Delta was organized in 1918 by the National Commons Club and made a national Greek fraternity. The feeling that there should be more organization among commons clubs led to the founding of this fraternal society. To date there has been a total of 16 chapters admitted into membership in the fraternity. They have chosen as their national flower the jonquil, and their colors to be white, orange, and black. The furtherance of the feeling of brotherhood among the chapters has been increased by the fraternity publication, “The Triangle.” Phi Mu Delta claims fame locally as having as faculty members Dr. F.

The national fraternity, founded by Messrs. Tay- lor. Wood. Sclater, Tazewell, and Howard, March 1. 1868. at the University of Virginia, had as its purpose the consummation of friendships formed during the Civil War in the Confederate Army. A strong national fraternity, especially in the South, Pi Kappa Alpha has 78 chapters. Its claim to fame locally consists of the fact that it was the first fraternity of the twentieth century on the campus of Wittenberg. Also, it has the only forti- fied house here. Among its list of faculty members we find Lind and Brees. Its “Shield and Diamond was awarded first place among fraternity publications for several years. In the course f many years such men as Oscar Underwood: Senators Tolley, Rainey, Salmon: Governors Blackwood and Chandler; and Lynn Waldorf have been members of Pi Kappa Alpha.

The reason for the founding of the organization was given as the bettering of one another mentally, morally, and socially. In 1904 the group changed its name to the Greek - letter name of Alpha Delta Phi, and again in 1913 changed their name to Alpha Delta Pi, which name still exists. In March of 1913 seven coeds formed a local sorority by the name of Gamma Beta Gamma. In the fall of the same year this group went national and was installed as Chi Chapter of Alpha Delta Pi. The sorority colors are blue and white, and its flower is the violet. Its national publication is “The Adelphean. The national roster now has 58 chapters in it. Nationally, Alpha Delta Pi is famous for be- ing the oldest group in the collegiate sorority world. Locally, the chapter celebrated its silver an- niversary in November, and published an insert in “The Torch in connection with the anniversary.

Thus was the beginning of that sorority. Seven women founded Sigma l’i, a local wo- men's sorority, at Wittenberg in 1903, and the following year this local group associated itself with the national group of Alpha Xi Delta, and became the Zeta Chapter. Though their aim is not to have a large chapter roll, nevertheless the national organiza- tion now has 53 chapters, significant of a slow, but steady growth. One of the projects which Alpha Xi Delta carries on is the missionary station at Carcasonne, Ky., which was founded and is entirely supported by the sorority. The organization also carried on a scholarship fund. The publication of Alpha Xi Delta is known as “The Quill and its colors are gold and double blue.

This change to a national status did not mean another new organization, because the local group had been on the campus since 1923. Beta Phi Alpha was started at the University of California on May 8. 1909. The founders of the sorority were Mrs. Scott and the Misses Rinn, Ludeke, Taylor, Paul, and Nelson. From this beginning she holds the distinction of being the first sorority to originate on the Pacific coast. The publication of Beta Phi Alpha, “The Aldebaran. has the same name as the early name of the organization which since 1919 has been called Beta Phi Alpha. Beta Phi has as its purpose “The desire to elevate, refine, and broaden the outlook of all women coming into contact with the organization.” Its flower is the yellow tea rose and the colors of the group are green and gold. The chapter roll now numbers 33. Among the policies of the sorority is that of weekly programs by the chapter and that of maintaining a fund for assisting worthy Beta Phi to finish college courses.

'Hu local chapter of Chi Omega was founded more than 15 years ago, as the local sorority Kappa Phi Sigma. This local group affiliated itself with ('hi Omega in 1924. Today. Chi Omega enjoys the distinction of being the largest women’s national fraternity in the United States, having altogether 87 chapters. Each year the national organization bestows an Achievement Award on a woman who has made an outstanding contribution to the arts or sciences. Locally, the Chi Omega chapter offers a prize to the student who writes the best paper on social problems. The winner of the award this year is Raymond Beals. Outstanding names among the Chi Omega membership rolls are those of Dorothy Jordan, Mary (’. Love Collins, and Mabel Walker Wille- brand.

The local sorority. Tail Delta Theta, founded in 1901 the first sorority on the Wittenberg campus, join- ed the national organization in 1929. Culture, ideals, pride, and friendship are the four characteristics upon which Helen Dodge, Frances Haven, Adeline Curtis, and Mary Bing- ham founded this national group at Syracuse University, Nov. 1 1, 1874. At this time the group called themselves a sorority, the first women's group to do so. Today, forty-six chapters share the colors of double brown, the pink carnation, and the emblem symbolized in “The Crescent,'’ quarterly publica- tion of the sorority. Work carried on by the group includes camps for underprivileged children at Denver, Van- couver. Buffalo, and in Virginia's mountains. Also, each year a thousand-dollar scholarship is award- ed through the American Association of University women for graduate work in social service. Margaret Fishback, well-known poet, is one of the outstanding members of the sorority. Through Margaret Wilson and Jessie Wilson Sayre, daughters of President Wilson, Gamma Phi Beta has the distinction of being the first Greek-letter organization to enter the White House.

Today, after rapid growth, it has a total of 77 chapters and is fourth largest sorority in the Pan-Hellenic Council. The white rose, by virtue of its traditional relationship with purity, is the flower of the sorority. Its colors are green and white. The philanthropic activities of members of Kappa Delta are shown in the work being done in the Crippled Children's Hospital at Richmond, Va„ where the dental laboratories and a number of beds are being supported by this group. Kappa D-ba also maintains a large endowment fund and a chapter house fund. Mrs. Gladys Redd, former president of Pan- Hellenic Council, is one of Kappa Delta’s promi- nent alumnae.

Ferncliff Hall houses more than 140 women. Two sister dormitories have been made to care for the great number of coeds now at Wittenberg. Woodlawn House now houses sixteen women, while ‘ 581” house on Woodlawn provides living quarters for about eight girls. Ferncliff hall is a composite of three structures: the old Wittenberg Academy, now called the “old part or the part of the building comoosed of wood; a brick structure built in 1884. or that part of the building where the entrance is; and the later addition of 1914. or the new south wing. Woodlawn house was formerly called the “Honor House. but the building’s name was soon changed for reasons known only to its residents and to various college authorities. Girls living in the annexes take their meals with the residents of Ferncliff. where the main social activities are dinners for faculty members and a plan of exchange dinners with the men of Myers Hall.

Perhaps you are disappointed in the results, we sincerely hope not. We have tried to do the best to our ability in putting out a yearbook that you will be anxious to take home and show to your friends. We have attempted to give you more pictures in the form of “snap panels,” we hope that you are satisfied with the results. We have no theme as you can see. Perhaps this can be laid to the lack of originality on the part of the editor. However we have honestly tried to depict as many activities as possible. We wish to sincerely thank the members of both the Editorial and the Business staffs as they have done an admirable job in assisting us when ever needed. We would also like to acknowledge the fine assistance and work of the Indianapolis Engraving Co. and the Greenfield Printing and Publishing Co. If you members of the student body are too dissatisfied with this years publica- tion please tell next years staff so that our many mistakes can be recitified. KICHAKI) B I TT EX B EX I) E R.
