PEARCE 3 Director Page Ninety THE AUGUSTANA SCHOOL OF ORAL EXPRESSION IVA C. PEARCE, AM.J ME ............ ............. Dircczor MAHEL ARNELL YOUNGBERG ........... Head 0! Junior Depnrfment Speakers and renders must first of all he thinkers, but many of our best thinkers. and writers are poor speakers and readers. Courses in oral expression seek to rectify this condition and to increase the number of clear thinkers and expressive writers who are also good speakers and interesting readers. With this end in view phonetics are studied. the voice is developed and trained, .1 positive, attractive, vital personality is developed, choked channels are freed. 50 that body and voice may freely express the best which the man has to oHer. To be natural is the greatest art in the world. The speaker must master the technique of speech; hc.must be sincere, enthusiastic, sympathetic; he must desire intensely to convey his message to his audience. His work must be so balanced that it will be neither tou emotional nor too intellectual. Head and heart must be equally developed. Leadership has always been and is likely to continue to be the prerogative of the speaker. In study for oral interpretation the student Finds his greatest cultural opportunity. Literary masterpieces are the subject of his consideration. Next to the great writer in power and influence is the earnest student whuse labor of love is to interpretatc the master. The dramatic instinct is strong in most people and can be turned to guod account educationally No class ever studied Hamlet for the purpose of producing even a few of the scenes without developing in themselves some of Hamlet's princely character- istics. Timid pupils uften ride out to freedom while working in company with others. Team work is a means toward character development. In the production of :1 comedy even, an ideal of interpretation is developed Every member of the cast contributes to this interpretation. The play is the thing. The cast as one strive to produce an harmonious Whole. By all possible means the school of oral expression seeks to emphasize the im- ' portance of the spoken word. IVA C. PEARCE.

The history of the Students Union has been interesting and eventful. Time and h again in the open forum of its sessions, matters of major importance in the life of the schooE have been debated, and the students have by their own actions controlleci thcir liberties when it was found to hr: to the best interests of Augustaml. This is the one organization on the campus to which every student belongs. Its sessions, immcdiately after chapel each Friday morning, are democratic and conducted according to rules of parliamentary procedure.

This titres advertising czln he both formal and infmmal, but in either case should be Whalenhenrted and intelligent. Speak- ing well of Alma Mater does not mean that alumni should he blindly optimistic m' disastrously shurt-sighted; at the same time that they paint uut the noble traditions and the achievements of their college. they can consistently enough call attention .1150 to urgent needst L This suggests another thing of value that alumni are very reasonably expected to giro, namely, money. It is often called cold cash, but it can surely warm the heart of hold Augie.H Very few colleges can maintain :1 high standard without receiving much financial heip from their alumni, singly and collectivehn They must bear their due share of the necessary burden,- Alma h-Iater cannot depend wholly upun conferences and individual fritmls. Pleasant memnries connected with college days are fat from umugh; alumni should not cmly dream dreams'i relating 10 the past but also usec Visionsu pertaining to thc futurcr-provided the visions lend to giving. The most chectivc way for alumni :is such to do these zlnd other things fur Augustnna is through organized effort. They should be loyal to, cooperate with, the Alumni Association and, wherever possible, form and maintain local alumni organiza- tions. Otherwise there will be much waste motion, much blindly directed energy, many spasmodic and spuradic and consequently ineffective efforts. :thlishing niumni i Scholarships, giving money for vnriuus definite 'and wmthy putpuscs, and engaging in systematic, clear-cut advertising, such things as these bring rich results, Alumni of Augustnna, reciprocate with your Alma Materl A.

The baseball team of last year cums delightfully near :0 rupturing the championship, and cluscd a brilliant season with eight consecutive victuries. 1We wish to extend :1 word of appre- ciation tn our popular coach for the wurk which he has so well begun and we assure him of our hearty Mlppor: :md eoiipersltinn in carrying 011 the task of winning athletic fame fur Augustana. Pym Our Humirmf FnNy-rln-rr F0 OT BALL SEASON 1926 It may he said that the football season uf 1926 was one of the most successful fur many years. At the call for football candidates our coach, Carl Peterson. 511w bright aspects of building :1 good team. The fundamentals of fuothail were laid down to them, and the squad worked lung and faithfully, the result of this heing shmvn throughout the season by the wonderful defensive playing of the Augustalm team. The first game of the season was against St. Bede. The Norse grid machine flattened out this. first foe in truly remarkable fashion. Barnes circled the ends in a commendable manner. OIsson pounded the Beden line with terrific force. while Capt. Andcrson and Miller tan a wonderful interference. The hnal score was 33-6. Encouraged by this success, we engaged Knux, our ancient rival. After both sides had floundered around and for four periods plunged up and down the Held, which was more favorable for water pnlo than football, the mud-splashing affair came m an abrupt halt with neither team having scoredt Knox had :1 splendid passing combina- tion this year, but they could gain unly fifteen yards. Anderson, Miller, 11nd Barnes played a strong defensive game. With rm permanent injuries remlting frum the Knox game and with two weeks of practise, we encountered Illinois VVesleyan un the home field. It was one of the hardest fuught games of the season, the final score being 7 to 6 in our favor. Augus- tana had several chances to score but lost the ball on fumbles. The first half was an exchange of punts, but in the fourth quarter Lathrop dashed 65 yards for :1 touch- down, making the scorn: 7 m 6. A week later we played h-Iacomh before a homecoming crowd. Mnemnb had :1 fighting team, but fight alone cannot win 5: game. This game was played in 71 drizzling min. Angie's Fine opened big holes to allow our hnckHeld to get through Goranson and 0155011 each made :1 touthdownt Augustana had several chances to score but failedV the game ended 14 In 0 in our favor. The Augusmnn pony team played :1 stellar game With Hedding College. .

Carlson bested his rival in punting, Salzmann hurled a lung pasg t0 Kullherg. who caught it and raced 45 yards fur a tnuchdou'n. Blascr also intercepted a pas on Hcdding's 48-yard line. Then we met NIonmuuth :tt Homecoming. The famous. :Erinl attack of Taylor and Mnlesu'orth proved too much for Augie. The Hrst three quarters consisted almost entirely of exchange uf punts and lint thrusts. 'In the fmal period our fue used their mrial attack tn gnod advantage. Several breaks prevented thc Vikings from scoring. Alvine, Goranson, and Thnrson u-cre stats of the Nurse line. while lliller. Barnes, and Olssan shown hast as hall-toters. Playing our last home game with North Central the following week, the Viking offence steam- rollered the opposing team in a manner that icft an everlasting imt pressinn. Olsson, Barnes, and Anderson played remarkably well. while lIiller pierced the line for two touchdowns. The contest marked the final appearance uf Capt. An- derson, Barnes, Elmer, Fritz, Jnhnston, and Sellstrom nn the heme field. Encouraged by the victory of the preceding week, Augustana went to Millikin, where she was given a supreme lacing by the Millikin team. The Big Blue machine was in excellent working condition and worked with such clockiikc precision and effectiveness that, although Augustana threatened to score in the second petind, the Blue and White held them an the unc-foot line for no gains. The Noricmen brought the 1926 season ta a glorious C105: by smothering Mt. NIon'is 13 to 0 on :I. snuw-covered gridiron. A biting wind numbed the hands and feet nf the Norseman and prevented them from putting forth their best effort. However. the line worked in unison enough ta enable Barnes and Capt. Anderson to make scvcral nice runs. Spahr won a punting duel with Capt. Pnglt of Mt. Morris. Nineteen men were awarded letters Elf the close of the season. Those receiting letters were: Capt. Anderson, Edward Thorson, Clarence Barnes, Thor Olsson, Jerome Miller, Robert Spaht, Earl Fritz, Roland Musgrove. Ciarence Swanson, Norman Benson, Fred Kullberg, Hugo Alvinc, h-Iartin Knanishu, Lewis hVnrcham, Ted Blnsen Wallace Gornnsan, and George Nelson. At the usual post-season electian Edvard Thotson was elected to lead next year's team, Page One Hundred Farly-fic'e Augustnnn had a large number of reserves who wcrc ready to substitute at any minutc 1n practisc they took the humps every night.

Only a short period re! mained in which to prepare for the Hrs: game with VVatthurg College of Clinton, Iowa. On December 3 the Augie fans witnessed the first victory nf their team over the Germans, hy :1 score cf 33 to 9. Much improvement was shown in the second game with the Cambridge Legion. Although Augie was given strong opposition, the final score was 3: to 21. Shortly after the holidays Augustana engaged in one of the hardest battles of the season with Illinois W'esleyan. 1n the first half Augie was unable to hit the basket. The outcome of the game was. seemingly in favor at Wesleyan, when Augie smng :1 strong comeback and with faultless playing, in the second half, held hVesley'un to six paints while they gathered eighteen to top the iinal score of 2.1. to 18. On a short road trip to Chicago, Augie brukc even with the two games played. The first game was dropped to De Paul, 27 to 20. A tight defense, fast passing by both teams and the failure of the referee to call any fouls on the opponents of Augie were the notable facts of the game. In the following game with Armour Tech, Augustana had little trouble in winning by a 23 to 12 count. The next week the team set out in preparation for a two-game series on foreign floors with hfIiilikin and Carthage. In the first game against Millikin, 'with Augie icading up to the last three minutes of play, hard luck in the form of personal fouls Page 07:: Hundred Fifty-jw decided the game for the Big Blue, 28 to 25. On the following evening Carthage was apparently sweet revenge, for they were trampled under a score of +7 to 20. A1- uine was the stat of the evening, and cnvered himself with glory by scoring thirteen pointg. On the following week. Bradley came to Augustnnu with an en'vinble reputation. They failed to live up to their past rctul'dt mid at the close cf the game they were found :it the short end of a 4i to 27 score. On the fuiluwing evening Augie journeyed to Gnlesburg as guests of Knox. Close guarding, which resulted in the Siwash regis- tering nnlr four baskets. characterized the team play. The final score stood 28 to 17 in favor of Augie. After it seven-day practise Maeomh journeyed to Augick gym :0 meter the appo- sitimi. They failed to measure up to expectations and fell under :1 score of 27 to 12. The defeat at Macomh 21150 marked the completion of the lirst half of the sched- ule. On February 10, Augustzma was host to Knox in a return game. They offered very little in the line of opposition. while the Nurse ran up a comfortable lead tu win 41 w 23. Knanishu :uid Thnmzm topped the scoring cnlumn with nine iiuints each.

Conch of Briskvlbufl' and Track Arthur V: Swnlhcrg has won :1 widespread popularity at Augusmnzl, :md we may safely say that he is the best known and best liked man on the campus. Thcre Is a simple reason for this popularity which he enjoys. The student hudy has begun to realize the immeasurable vaIue of a coach who can put out winning teams year after year oven when he has few experienced men with whom to begin. This year he started the season with only two Iettermcn and yet his squad of Norseman threatened to take the championship. HArt is thoroughly an Augustzma man, having graduated in the Class of ,17, after being captain of the basketball tram for two years. Upon his return from France with a rank of NIajor, he was called to Augie as Director Of Athletics, and has ably filled that position ever since the fall of 1919.

The House of Representaliws. organized in 1923 by a group of men, all of whom were mcmhcrs of the class Df 1916, has proved itself 3 great Stimulus to forensics on the campus. The House of Representatives 1': organized on the plan of the lower house of Cungrcss. from which it takes its name. The presiding officer is recognized :15 the Speaker ; and each member, representing om: 0f the United States, and swam m uphold the rights of his commonwealth, Cnntrl'butes to a di$cussi0n of the questions which are of national. interest. Pnge Tun Hundrrd TM THE SENATE The Senate is one nf the prominent organizations on the campus. whose aim is to promote forensic activities. It affords an excellent op- portunity to its memhers t0 discusg leading quesdons 0f the day; to he- ccmc acquainted with governmental procedures; and to exercise their powers in public speaking. The Senate was nrganized DeCcmber 10. 1914. Although only a little over two years old it is now enjoying a most successful season. Eighteen active members are enrolled. That this organization is a force for the promotion of forensics is evidenced by the fact that three of the varsity dchzltcrs and the winner of the oratorical contest are mem- bers of the Senate, and further, that the Senate won every intcmrganizat tion debate in which it took part.

Page T-wn Hundryd' Thirty-lu'a FOREWORD The editors of this alleged humor section hope that all persons who have the distinction of breaking into print I I i in the following pages will take the fact good-naturedly, I for they assure you that it was not done for malice but ,- simply for spite. tOf course it shall be understood that i . by this they mean llinspite of themselvesj l '3' It is a part of the ethics of the editors to stand for things clean and above board, and their paper has been put forth as a beacon of the truth. Being broademinded, however. i they adhere to the maxim, uYou .canlt believe all you see - ii in print. 7 The college life of the editors has indeed been one ex- asperating thing after another. There has been one fac- tion of students who have laughed, jeered, and hee-hawed at their high ambitions. Then there have been others who helped them at every turn. tThe antecedents are ambigu- ous for a reasonJ Both factions have been featured in this paper, THE ABSURDER. :1. However, if you do not Find your name in the follow- l ing sheets do not feel slighted, for, of course they have i tried to treat all with great fairness and according to their ii disrespective values.

REGULATED SLEEPING IN CLASS Much comment is being circuluted as to the proposed plan to regulate sleeping in the classes The profes- sors maintain that if tleeping is. not regulated by some means. it will not be long before they will be entirely demented. For. they say that trying to make themselves audible above the snoring that is usually so prevalent will also cause them to lose their vulCEj. We appreciate their position and would certainly regret that they should become any more demented. The students, however. stand Flrrn in the belief that if they can sleep and still awake in time to laugh at the proper place at some desert joke of the prof. they should not he Lle- prived of their moral privilege to blank We admit that the students have n strong cause and should stand for their rights. But, since we are of a tolerant nature, why not have a little consideration for the poor profs? Should they became any more He- mental, sleeping in any class would be utterly impossible. Why not. we ask, consent to, or even spnnsnrt : plan whereby girls sleep one day and the boys the next? 0: lhc hour could even be divided up into periods, and tertain pEl'lOClS could be assigned to each person when he would be allowed to sleep. Under this plan two or three persons would always be awake at one time. If one of the wakeful ones should lost: his strength and. fall asleep, he could simply awaken the person next to him, and in this manner one person would always be awake at one time in each class.

The World,s Best in Plow Building Good name means as much in the plow business as in private lite- Aud is acquired in the same way, Goods that have the reputation and are the biggest sellers on the market are the best in their linleays. They get to the top and stay there-Why? Because of their quality and prestige; Prestige is the result of known quality. Plow prestige is the good opininn or enough people, based on actual ex- perience, to make that particular plow the best seller, 1:: a. business way there is a. difference between simply a plow and a plow plus a big reputationia valuable difference. John Deere plows in the end give the greatest returns on the investmentr And that is the sole and only reason why farmers want them when other plows could be had for lass mnney. Farmers who have used John Deere Plows ask tor them by name just as their fathers did betore them. The name John Deere ish Plow Insurance-It Fixes the Quality and has done so for more than 83 years . . n1: WADE MARK OF uuALtTY m PAWS W 6000 MM ?!

The ability to assist in making permanent such delight- ful bits of class spontaneity rests in an organization of creative artists guided by some 17 years of College Annual work, which experience is the knowledge of balance and taste and the fltness of doing things well. In the finest year books of American Colleges the sincerity and genu- ineness of Bureau Engraving quality instantly impresses one. They are class records that will live forever.
