ASHLAND ° FRESHMEN PP Sh ts Ninety and nine decidedly green Freshmen came to Ashland College this year. The miracle of the Freshman evolving into a competent Sophomore has once again been wrought in our m‘dst. The whole student body should give arising vote of congratulations to the faculty for their power of instilling enough knowledge in one short year to graduate a group like this to the rank of upper classmen. In September the Freshmen elected a committee of .five from their ranks to take care of any business that might come up before January, but none came. Encouraged, they elected officers: Dorrell Tucker, Pres'dent; Janet Brubaker, Vice-President; Katherine Murphy, Secretary- Treasurer. Credit should be given to this class for its victory over the Sophomores on Homecoming Day. Mrs. Andrews, of the English department, was chosen as faculty adviser.

PINE SOPHOMORES py Aict) ny Having honorably evacuated the east side of the chapel to take up residence across the aisle, the Class of ‘37 gained a feeling of being im- portant cogs in the college wheel. They are now upper-classmen and must needs impress upon the Freshmen their rights to respect and deference. The officers elected at the first of the year to guide this precocious group were Edward Hoekstra, President; Arthur Malles, Vice-President; Dorothy Carpenter, Secretary; and Ebert Smith, Treasurer. Members of the Sophomore Class found their way into practically all tne campus activities, even going so far as to hold offices in some of them. A number of good contributions were made by this group to the athletic teams. Continuing an old tradition of our Alma Mater, the Sophs entertained their sister class, the Seniors, with what appeared to be a very enjoyable St. Patrick’s Day party. This was the outstanding event of the year’s class activities. Front row: Taylor, Mosey, Patterson, Planck, Morrill, Schwartz, Schuck.

WHISPERS THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THEOLOGY PINE One of the most important departments of Ashland College is the Seminary, having been a part of the schoo! from the time it was founded in 1878. Back in the early years, theo!ogy was on the regular college curriculum, and was offered as a ccurse open to any wishing to take it. However, in 1931, the Board of Trustees separated the seminary from the arts department of the college to enable those desiring to enter the Ministry to put more time into this special field, and to receive more adequate training. This year, the student body of the Graduate School of Theology is small, but a great number of the students in the arts department of our school are taking pre-seminary work, and in a year or so will enter this division of the institution. Seated: M. Ashman, Dr. Monroe, Dr. McClain (Dean of the Seminary), Prof. Stuckey, Martin. Middle row: Niswonger, Uphouse, Gehman, Schneider, Hoyt, Hammers. Top row: R. Ashman, Morrill, Grubb, White, Failor, Stark, Dowdy, Tilly. ¥ = 28
