Dean 01 Women LEKBERG SUNDBERG Advisory Council This year an advisory council for the President was formed, This council includes representative faculty members and admin- istrators and meets at the call of the Presi- dent of the institution. The administrative work is thus greatly centralized and c06r$nated The new plan has already met with favor and shown its advantages. The President's Advisory Council HHHXH HISTORICAL STATEMENT Church collegES in no small number were founded in the Middle West by the early pioneers just before and after the middle of last century. They were the products of American civilization and were intended to meet the needs of the different denomina- tions in their religious work among the ever increasing number of inhabitants. The tide of immigration came also from the Scandiu navian countries, beginning in the i403, and the settlements of these people grew apace in the Northern Mississippi Valley. Following the trend of the times in their new surroundings, and realizing the needs of their people, the early Scandinavian lead- ers began educational wark in the '50's, at hrst attaching themselves to an institution 'which had its home in Springfield, Illinois. The center of population, however, was far- ther north, and accordingly 3 new institu- tion, named Augustana College and Theo- logical Seminary, was founded in 1860 and located at Chicago, Illinois, where it re- mained during the first three years of its existence. The First president of the institution and one of its founders, Professor L. P. Esbjtim, outlined its purpose in the following words, written in. 1859: iiOur educational work is of 50 great im- portance for the supplying of our congregate tions with pastors and teachers, and for the education of youth to fill other occupations which require knowledge and culture, and is therefore so momentous for retaining our congregations in a true and living Christi- anity as well as for the preaching of the pure Word of God in the language of the country, that we must maintain the same, let the cost be what it may.u WW Whatever additions or widening of scope the passing years have brought, the original, fundamental purpose of the institution has never been changed, viz., to serve as the handmaid of the Church in the furtherance of God's kingdom. Augustana College and Seminary was moved to Paxton, Ford County, in 1863, where it remained till 1873 Under the lead- ership of Dr. T, N, Hasselquist, the second president Gram 1863 to 139D the institu- tion in 1875 found its permanent home at Rock Island, Illinois. Like its sister colleges it has grown in size, efficiency, and attendance, endeavoring at all times to meet the requirements of its day. It has added departments such as a School of Music, a School of Arts, and vari- ous departments within the Liberal Arts College and the Theological Seminary. It has a uniquely valuable collection of historic source material, including hooks, newspa- pers, pamphlets and letters covering the pe- riod from the pioneer days up to the present time, and has as another distinctive feature a strong department of the Swedish lane guage and literature.

WAHLSTROM This is the First year that Augustana has led our other Lutheran Colleges in con- tributing to the Junior Class in the Seminary for many years. In all there are seven men from Augustana, five from Bethany, four from Upsala, four from Gustavus Adolphus, one from the University of Minnesota, one from Concordia College, and DUE from Wheaton College; these are representatives from nine different states. So far during our Seminary days we have enjoyed the fellowship of those preparing for the same ministry as ourselves. We are deeply appreciative of the splendid spirit of cob'peration which we are receiving from the College Administration, now that we are more than ever being included on the Cam- pus program. May this association lead to a hatter understanding between the two groups. We hope that our years Spent together as a class 0n Zion Hill will prepare us the bet ter to understand and work for the exten- sion of Godls Kingdom here among men; with the knowledge that our hwork is not in vain 'm the Lord. SCHOOL OF MUSIC The ideals and standards of the Augustana School of Music are identical with those of the Liberal Arts College Tu develop nut only facility in the definite principles and practices of the technique of music, but to stimulate an aiert consciousness of the per- sonal and universal meaning of the art of music is the constant purpose of the school. In its Preparatory Department the School of Music gives careful attention to beginners in all branches of music study. A competent and experienced staff of in- structors is maintained during the winter and summer sessions for private work in Pianol Voice, Organ and Vinlin. Special cuurses in Lutheran Hymnology, Gregorian Music, Modern Harmony, etc. are arranged by request, provided no less than four are registereri for such work. Accom- panying classes are also conducted for stu- dents sufficiently advanced. Bachelor 0F Music Education CAROLYN BERGSTEDT Moline Three students of the School of Music will receive the degrees of Bachelor of Music Education this year. They are Carolyn Berg- stedt of Molina, Alice Jacobson of Ironwood, Michigan, and Ivan Kortkamp of Molina. A large number of students of the College and Seminary are taking special courses at the School of Music. Likewise many local residents are taking advantage of the oppor- tunities offered to take special work in voice or the various musical instruments. The School of Music this year was re- sponsible for a large number of the broadn casts made over the college radio bruadcast- ing system in conjunction with station WHBF of Rock Island. Student artist recitals are given from time ta time by the various students in the School of Music. These recitals are open to the public. ALICE JACDESON Ironwood, Michigan IVAN KORTKAMP Molina L: SUMMER SCHOOL Summer 1Campus SCENE The Summer Session places at the disposal of the student the entire facilities of the College in all departments in which summer instruction is given. The studies are planned to meet primarily the needs of the follow- ing classes of students: tn teachers who may desire a better training for their work in the classroom, or who are preparing to meet the requirements for the various teach- erst certificates; Gt students needing educa- tion credits to qualify for teachers, certifx- cates; U20 teachers who desire ultimately to obtain a baccalaureate degree; 010 college students who wish to obtain advance credit to shorten their college course or to remove conditions; t3 persons who wish to enter the courses for cultural purposes. The time is so computed that the number of classes and the amount of work covered are the full equivalent of the regular se- mester requirements. No regular Classes are held in the afternoon, this time being re- served for study, rest and recreation. EVENING COURSES .q a,xs. A ...t....x.a.. The evening courses are an integral part of the college program. They are offered as an extension of the daily schedule, are taught in two-hour periods, and are under the control and supervision of the college administration. In most cases the evening classes correspond to those given regularly in the College, and all are recognized as of equal value Students who have not com- pleted high school, but who, in the instruc- torts opinion, are qualified to carry a par- ticular course, may enroll for it without col- lege credit, Those who desire such credit must meet the regular college entrance re- quirements. In order to make it possible for a student, if he so desires, to enroll for two courses, the classes are distributed as eveniy as pos- sible between Tuesday and Thursday eve- nings, THE SCHOOL OF NURSING To meet the need for scientifically trained women to fill administrative and teaching positions .in schools of nursing, to become public health nurses or hospital technicians, at FIVE-year combined college and profes- sional course leading to the degree of Eachew 101' of Science and offering a Graduate Nurse's diploma is offered by Augustana College and Moline Lutheran Hospital. During the Hrst two years the work is en- tirely in the College and the student pays the regular tuition and fees to the College. Three months of preliminary training are spent at the Hnspital between the secnnd and third years to acquaint the student with the professional aspect of the course. During the third year the work is divided; the student enrolls for courses in the Col- lege but is in residence at the Hospital, tak- ing theoretical and practical work there. The student then pays only a part of the regular tuition at the College and receives maintenance at the Hospital. The fourth and fifth years are spent en- tirely at the Hospital. under the same condi- tions as to work and maintenance as during the last two years of the usual three-year nursets cuurse. 1, ORGANIZATIONS I Lund.

Furs Alpha Psi Omega, 3 national honorary dramatic fraternity organized in 1925, was chartered at Augustana in the fall of 1928. Only those are eligible for membership who have taken an outstanding part in the drah matic activities of the department. It aims to train its members in the further develop ment of dramatic talent and appreciation of the best in drama. Martin Holcomb is the faculty adviser of the organization. An alumni chapter of Alpha Psi Omega was organized this year and is carrying 011 the same activities as the active chapter. Among the activities of the organization this year was the sponsoring of the Mauritz- son Memorial play given in the college gym- nasium April 18. Pi KAPPA DELTA Maucker. Magnuson. Schwiehert. C. Johnson. OakEey, Tinberg, Duwie CV Fryxell. Hulcomb. LiDDan. F, Fryxell. Scherslen Augustana College feels honored to be one of the fourteen colleges out of thirty-two ap- plicants to be granted a charter of Pi Kappa Delta at the National Convention and Tour- nament of that organization held at Lexing- ton, Kentucky, April 2-6, 1934. Pi Kappa Delta is the largest national forensic fraternity and includes in its mem- barship over one hundred and forty colleges and universities in thirty-six states and one foreign country. Every two years a national tournament is held in which contests are scheduled for both men and women in de- bate, extempore speaking, and oratory. At the convention in Lexington there were seven hundred and twelve contestants and faculty representatives present. During the odd year when there is no national tourna- ment, provincial tournaments are held in the respective districts into which the na- tiemal organization is divided. Augustana College will be a member of the Illinois- Wisconsin Province, The purpose of this organization, as stated in its national constitution, is to stimulate progress in, and to promote the interests of intercollegiate debate and oratory and pub- lic speaking by encouraging a spirit of inter- collegiate fellowship, of brotherly co'cipera- tion and interest, and by conferring upon cieserving candidates a badge of distinction, pruficiency and honor, varied and graduated according to merit and achievement. The Greek phrase Peitho Kalea Digaia signifies 'Kthe art 0f persuasion beautiful and just? RUNIC HONOR SOCIEDl Wald. Leonhard. Gustaison. Fryxell Herbert; Olson. H. Johnsan. Motechicusl Edmund. A. Johnson It is with a feeling of achievement that we Runicsl' make our first appearance in the ROCKETY-I. Everyone knows that good hon- est work should be rewarded and far this reason the society was organized. The so- ciety aims to recognize and furnish an in- centive for high scholastic achievement, a service which will benefit not only the indie viduals involved, but also the college as a whole. In 1933 the seven highest ranking senior men, with the advice and counsel of Dean Wald and Dri Fryxell, organized the society. The limited membership of eight is chosen each year from those juniors who have main- tained at 2.0 average during the first five semesters of college work and from those who have had an average of 2.2 for the pre- vious school year. Although scholarship is a potent factor in the selection of members, other things such as leadership, service, and character are taken into consideration. At their meetings the Runics have vari- ous projects, those which will be scholastic in nature and interesting to the active chap- ter and also projects which will benefit the entire school. The fellowship of united effort and achievement is the enjoyable lot of every HRunic.

By conversing and conducting the business meetings only in the Swedish lan- guage there is greater opportunity to de- velop onehs vocabulary and conversation than could be provided for in class. Programs centering about Swedish music, iiterature and art are given. New uEicers are elected for each meeting which familiar- ize aH members with parliamentary proce- dure as conducted in Swedish. The organization is one of the youngest on the campus, being founded only last fall, but holds many possibilities for those ink terestcd. Next yeafs plans are to study the works of some Swedish authors and musicians. President .................. RUTH JOHNSON Vice Pfesident ........... ANNE LUNDQUIS'I Secretary: ................

W m III ALPHA DELTA Alpha chapter of Alpha Delta National Journalistic Fraternity was host to the na- tional convention held here at Augustana May 12. Representatives from the five active chapters attended and the success of the first nationai meetingF-held here at Augus- tana in 1930ewas repeated. One of the founders of the fraternity, Alpha chapter at Augustana has been active both locally and nationally since its begin- nings on March 8, 1930. Qualifications for membership include three semesters of service to the college paper-at Augustana, the Observer. This year besides initiating four new members, Professor C. A. Fryxell was given an honorary membership in rec- ognition of his helpful interest and the effi- cient aid he has given the Observer staff. The active chapter consists of: Horace Lee, president Willard Condo, vice president Florence Lippens, secretary Virginia Hubbart, treasurer Lynn Ash Geraldine Ballarti Margaret Sudlow John Thomsun Professor Fritiof Fryxell Professor C. A. Fryxell AUGUSTANA HISTORICAL SOCIETY It is the object of the Augustana Historical Society to encourage historical research and to collect and preserve documents, corre- spondence, and objects of historical interest to Augustana College and Theological Semir nary and the Lutheran Augustana Synod. The society is at present particularly in- terested in the callection of American Lu- theran and Scandinavian American litera- ture for the College archives. Complete or nearly complete files of leading American Lutheran periodicals English, German, Swedish, Norwegian, Danish, Icelandic, and Finnism have been obtained, as have files of most of the Swedish-American period- icals. THE AMERICAN-SCANDINAVIAN FOUNDATION The Augustana chapter of the American Scandinavian Foundation was established in 1933. Membership is open to all persons in the community who are interested in the general purposes of the foundation. Quar- terly meetings are held during the school year. The organization recently took over the former deeds offices in the Denkmarm Library Building. , W UH t 41' The Udden Geology Club was organized in March by eleven department majors for the purpose of advanced geological studies. The club is named in memory of the late Dr. Johan A. Udden, renowned geologist and former professor of geology a1; Augus- tana. Dr. F. Mt Fryxell acts as adviser of the group. The organization is an outgrowth of a geology seminar course conducted during the past year by the department. The mem- bers will hold regular meetings for the pur- pose of reviewing books and journal articles on geology; UDDEN GEOLOGY CLUB CHARTER MEMBERS Ted Anderson, President Rudolph Edmund, Vice President Harold Hendrickson, Secretary-Treasurer Howard Peterson Emmett Imberg LeRoy Carlson Leland Horberg Keith Hussey Vincent Nelson Frank Swanson Don Mahler AUGUSTANA ART ASSOCIATiON Art exhibits and lectures on art are spon- sored by the Augustana Art Association, or- ganized in 1927. In addition to stimulating esthetic appreciation through exhibits and lectures, the Augustana Art Association is collecting works of art for the institution. Bimanthly meetings are held. Membership is open to anyone interested in the purpose of the association. AUGUSTANA ENDOWMENT SOCIETY As it nears the close of its fortieth year, the Augustana Endowment Fund Society has invested the sum of alnmst $30,000 ac- cumulated for the purpose of enduwing a prufessorship. The society has received a number of substantial gifts, but the greater part of its funds have been collected through membership fees. The membership is composed mainly of women living in Rock Island and Molina. In addition to an active membership roll of ninety-six, the society has a large number of honorary and life members. 144 5 Ln... 2-. AUGUSTANA ALUMNI ASSOCIATION The Alumni Association of Augustana College was organized by the first graduat- ing class in the spring of 1877. The present membership consists of alumni and many former students. An alumni office, in charge of the execu- tive secretary is maintained. In this office indices of all alumni and former students are an file, and contact with them is main- tained through correspondence and the Alumni Bulletin, which is published quar- terly and sent to every member of the asso- ciation. On Alumni Day during Commence- ment Week a business meeting, class reunion luncheons, and an alumni banquet are held. Branch alumni associations have been or- ganized in Chicago and Rockford 111., J ames- town, N. Y., Cadillac, Mich, and other cen- ters. Officers of the Alumni Association for 1933-34 are as follows: President, Mr. Earl Hanson, Rock Island, 111.; lst vice president, Professor Paulus Lange, Ames, Iowa; 2nd vice president, Superintendent W. C. Robb, Maywood, 111.; 3111 Vice president, Dr. S. C. Plummet, Chicago; secretary-treasurer, Pro- fessor O, L. Nordstrnm, Rock Island, 111.; executive 'secretary, Dr. Wendell Lund, Washington, D. C.

He is Americais most widely read poet abroad and at heme he is considered tbs iimosf brilliant,2 hard of his time. This New Yorker with his commingling of the prac7 tical and the poetic is one of the most satis: fying exponents of our new era in art and literature. His widely used anthologies in- troduced most of us college students to Mr. Untermeyer, that bait which enticed us on to read his choice bit, Roast Leviathan, his satires, Parodies and his famous translation, Poems of Heinrich Heine. Quite as refresh- ing as his poetry is his novel Moses and his humorously fascinating Blue Rhine and Black Forest. Mr. Untermeyer's poetry, indeed his whole EASTMAN UNTERMEYER philusophy of life is suggested by a verse from his poem Prayer: Open my ears to music; let Me thrill with spring's First Ilutes and drum But never let me dare forget The hitter ballads of the slums Rockwell Kent Satisfying yet stimulating was Mr. Rock- well Kent's lecture In Defense of True Art. This versatile artisfs democratic manner endeared him to his audience and yet could not hide his unmistakable individuality. World famous for his paintings, he is equally recognized as the foremost among wood- cutters, hoatbuilders, navigators and his- torians. Most interesting of all, Mr. Kent is whole-souled in his Americanism; he is American by birth, in training, in viewpoint, in execution, and in his success i i I 46. A A A A 4 A Frank Crowinshield in Creative Art sum- marizes his genius thus: There have been, since the day of Michaelangelo and Leon- ardo, occasional men whose perceptions are so subtle and so immediate, whose solution of the artist's problem in a dozen fields are so intuitive that they manage to leave the impression of a very special genius on every- thing they do. Rockwell Kent in our own day is such a man. He is in everything that he does a highly distinguishable personality and individualist of the hrst magnitude. Nothing that he does could conceivably have been done by any one else, yet there is not in his voice, or manner, the faintest trace of patronage or ego. Arthw Compton Arthur Comptun, Nobel prize winner and receiver of the Rumford gold medal in 1927, gave his very learned but interesting Cosmic Ray lecture here. This illustrious scientist, now professor of physics at the University of Chicago, has been affiliated with several large American universities as well as with the Punjab University in Lahore, India. Secondary Radiation: Produced by X-rays and X-mys and Electrons are Mr. Comptonis books. In. addition to and as preparation for these publications, are this physicist's Sciens tific discoveries: First wave length measure- ment of hard gamma rays, discovery of change in scattered X-ray wave lengths, dis- covery of total reflection of X-rays and X-ray spectra from ruled gratings. himaaauumLsf cgmgitiat ;44 Kirby Page World interest is the dominant note in Mr. Page's personality and in his lecture. Having visited some thirty-five countries in the world, having crossed the ocean nearly a score of times, he has interviewed prac- tically everyone of political note from Ma; hatma Ghandi to Lloyd George. Because he is the editor of The World To- morrow and has addressed countless clubs, church conventions and colleges, he can give a thorough analysis and satisfactory answer to his lecture query, iEMust: there be another war?! Fred Eastman Movies, Manners and Morals was the sub- ject of the challenging lecture given by Fred. Eastman. This public speaker and writer is best known for his work in the field. of the religious drama. Of these his play Bread and his pageant Americanis Unfinished Bat- tles are, perhaps, most widely usevi. Besides being editm' of Religious Literature and Drama at The Chicago Theological Semi- nary, Mr. Eastman is etiitor of The Register of The Chicago Theological Seminary and contributing editor to The Christian Cen- tm'y.

Henry Veld, who has in five years taken the choral work at Augustana and raised it to a point of exceilence which places it among the very highest in the country, deserves all the praise for the present envi- able position of the Augustana Choir and its component parts, the Jenny Lind Chorus' and the Wennerberg Male Chorus. When Mr. Velcl came to Augustana he found two good College choruses in exist- ence. The Wennerhergs had traveled and sung for about twenty-iive years previously and the Orioles tnow known as the Jenny Lind Chorust had been organized and had been touring for about lifteen years. Henry Veld conceived the idea of creating from these two existent organizations a unfled, symphonic a cappella choir. At the first Orchestra Hall concert four seasons ago, this new cumbination was given its first real test. Since then, by dint of hard work and excel- lent leadership, the choir has rapidly grown in prestige and fame until now we can say without hesitation that the Augustana Choir stands among the faremost in the country. Tryouts are held each fall in order to fill vacancies caused by graduation. Close to a hundred students try out for both sections of the choir each year. This year the chair was forced to fill in with many new members. Brynolf Lundholm, who has efficiently accompanied the separate choruses under Henry Veld, has been a most valuable aid in the choir work. Paul Hanson, appointed manager after his graduation last fall, was manager for three years during his college days. The following major appearances consti- tuted the concert season this spring: Frances Shimer College at Mt. Carrall, 111.. National Music Supervisors Convention at Chicagoi SI. Olaf's Col? lege at Northfield, Minn. Civic Auditorium at Minne- apolis. Peoples Church at 5!. Paul. Armory at Duluth. Brahnm. Minn, Center City. Minn. Rockford. 11L Esca- nabat Mich. Marquetle.

The Augustana Orchestra holds a very definite place in the roster of musical or- ganizations, as it accompanies the Handel Oratorio Society in the annual rendition of The Messiah, as well as giving numerous concerts in the Tri-Cities and neighboring cities The urchestra is under the direction of Clifford Julstrom, violin instructor in the School of Music, and includes students of COLLEGE ORCHESTRA the College, School of Music as well as some Tri-City residents. The Orchestra is one of the oldest Augus- tana organizations. Membership gives a stw dent valuable training in orchestral work and many students who take individual les- sons supplement their work with orchestra experience.

COLLEGE BAND One of the oldest organizations on the campus is the Augustana Band. This orga- nization is essential to college pep a1. inter collegiate games, but more than that, it is capable of playing the more difficult type of concert program very well, too. Besides the numerous appearances at athletic con- tests, the band this year appeared at several programs around the community high schools, and presented their annual home concert in the gymasium in May. Last summer the Augustana Band was chosen to play at the ofEicial Lutheran Day ceremonies at the Worldk Fair, A short tour in connection with this trip took the band into several northern Illinois cities, where concerts were given. The Augustana Band has been heard in European tours twice, in 1914 and in 1928. Annual tours each year have carried the band to all parts of the country. OFFICERS President ......................

HandePs brilliant oratorio, The Messiah. was presented for the Mty-third year at Augustana on Friday, December 8, 1933, by the Handel Oratorio Society, composed of students, faculty members and citizens of the Tri-Cities. A chorus of two hundred and sixty-five voices was assisted by the college orchestra and featured four outside soloists, Edwin Kempe, tenor, of Chicago, Lillian Knowles, contralto, of Chicago, Mar- jorie Schobel, soprano, of Francas Shimer College, and Mark Love, well-known basso, of Chicago. Brynolf Lundholm accompanied on the piano and Eskil Randolph was at the auditorium organ. Henry Veld directed the entire rendition A record crnwd of 2300 filled the Augus- tana Auditorium. This year's rendition was termed the most technically perfect ever to be given here. The college orchestra again accompanied the chorus under the direction of Clifford Jnlstrom. Handele Messiah was hrst sung in 1881 when the Handel Oratorio Society was or: ganized by Dr. Olof Olsson, third president of Augustana. The text, containing many of the Messianic prophecies, is taken from the Bible. The oratorio was written by George Frederick Handel in 1742 and was first presented in Dublin that year. It is considered HandePs greatest oratorio. DRAMATICS Under the efficient and untiring direction of Mr. Jack Leland, student director of pro- ductions, interest in dramatics has been very noticeably aroused. Because of the many successful productions put on during the past year, '11; has been pussible for the de- partment to obtain Some equipment that has long been needed. The major plays during the past school year were produced in the gymnasium-auditorium, thus allowing for a much larger crowd than was formerly ac- commodated in the college chapel, where most of the plays have been given previously. A complete stage setup was worked out and constructed, which covers the entire gym- nasium platform and gives ample room for the largest productions. The dramatic productions this year were considerably more ambitious than many of the productions given heretofore. Many of them involved large casts, thus bringing into at least one play a great number of indi- vidual students. Indications are that interest in dramatic productions will be increasingly evident and students will await with anticipation the an- nouncement of plays chosen for next year.

A11 mem- bers of the cast, however, deserve special mention for their work in this play, which was undoubtedly one of the best ever given here. FORENSICS The Forensic Board An unusually extensive and successful forensic program was conducted this year at Augustana under the supervision of the forensic board The personnel of this board '15 made up of those members of the faculty who are connected with the teaching, coach- ing, advising, and financing of the forErlsic program together with student representa- tives of the forensic organization. The duties of the board are to supervise and conduct the entire forensic program for the year in such a manner as to insure the participation by Augustana speakers in all contests possible. During the course of this year in particular there have been many forensic activities carried on. Eighty-three menls and woments debates, the greatest number ever participated in by Augustana Wald, C. Johnson. Farh Andreen, Johnsonv Fryxeu. Brown. Holcomb. HaIes students in one year, heads the list. Two craters were entered in the state oratorical contest held at Peoria, Illinois. The climax of the season was reached when four stu- dents and coach Holcomb attended the na- tional convention of the Pi Kappa Delta honorary forensic fraternity at Lexington, Kentucky, and succeeded in gaining for Augustana a chapter in the organization. This board also chooses a manager for the debate team anti makes aEicial awards to the speakers who merit special distinction. Debate Under the expert coaching of Prof. Hol- comb, Augustana debaters participated this season in eighty-three debates with unusu- ally great success; the menls team winning thirty-hve while losing fourteen and the Forensic Board A ,ma.

Among the list of colleges losing to Augustana are included Redlands Univer- sity, the 1932 National Pi Kappa Delta cham- pions. and Gustavus Adolphus College, this yeafs natiunal champions of Pi Kappa Delta. The debating season got off t0 a quick start when three menis teams and four wume 911:5 teams attended the second annual 111i- nois State Normal University debating tour- nament held at Normal, Illinois, in the latter part of January. The Augustana ments A teams succeeded in winning twelve out of fourteen debates. In February, two menis teams traveled to North Manchester, Indi- ana, and won nine out of eleven debates, Purdue University being one of the victims. In the Illinois Debate League, however, the debaters, both men and women, were not so successful, the women losing all their debates and the men winning only half of theirs. To make up for these defeats, the Augie menis team trounced severely Beth- any College, who are fast becoming tradi- tional rivals of Augustana, and the national Pi Kappa Delta champions of last year and this year, Redlands University and Gustavus Adolphus College. At the national convention of the Pi Kappa Delta honorary forensic fraternity, Augie representatives won three out of five de- bates and in the person of Peter Danger qualified in the semifinals of the extempu- raneous speaking contest. Besides the decision debates, many non- decision debates were also held. Oakley and Maucker debated St. Viator College over radio station WCFL of Chicago early in the year. Another nondecision debate was held before the Rotary Club of Rock Island and was broadcast from radio station WHBF of Rock Island. Most of the success of this yearis debate teams is due to the coaching of Professor Martin Holcomb, who worked with untiring GILMAN SCHWIEBEBT efforts. Besides acting as task-master, Prof. Holcomb rewrote speech after speech and also taught several classes in the college as well as to gather together enough facts so that his debaters could speak authoritatively on their subject. Oratory Miss Ruth Gilman, sophomore of Daven- port, Iowa, and Lloyd Schwiebert, senior of Moline, Illinois, represented Augustana this year in oratory in the Illinois state oratorical contest held at Peoria, Illinuis. Miss GiIman speaking on ttA Plea for My People gained first place in the womerfs division. Each orator must write her own oration and Miss Giiman not only wrote a splendid selection but also presented it in such a manner as to gain her hrst place in the state contest. Mr. Schwiebert with his oration God Liberate Ustt gained second place in the men's division to bring more honors to Augustana. However, Lloyd went a step farther by piecing fourth out of seventy-six orators at the national Pi Kappa Delta con- vention. i While much credit is due the orators, a great deal of praise must be given to Theo- dore Levander, seminary senior, and Prof. Holcomb, who coached the winners. 5H .bL-Iuv 7 .- 5222mm... sign- m f w HI HUN!!!

It is the agency of contact with other general departments of the college and with other colleges. An outstanding event sponsored by the Religious Board this year was the Chris- tian Conference held November 3, 4, and 5. Rev. C. O. Bengtson and Dr. Victor Pearson, both pastors in Chicago, were secured as speakers. The conference included three sessions and a fellowship supper. A religious drama.J In the Light of the Star, was presented Tuesday evening, De- cember 12, 126 a large audience in the gym- nasium. This was Sponsored jointly by the dramatic department, the Augustana Choir, Bergstrand. H. Juhnsonh Wald, C. Johnson, Farh Jansen, Anderson. Andreen, Sundherg the Augustana Concert Orchestra, and the Religious Board. The total cast included 120 students. Vesper services were held on Sunday afternoons in the seminary chapel at 4:30 o'clack. These services consisted of a twenty- minute organ recital, a short liturgical serv- ice, and a sermonette. Weekly campus prayer meetings were held on Tuesday evenings from 7:30 to 8 cfclock in the library lecture hall. Discus- sions were conducted by a leader and a short session of prayer was held. Special Lenten meetings were held at which Prof. H. W. Johnson, Prof. A. D. Mattson, and Dean BergendoFr spoke. Plans are now being made for the Sixth Christian Youth Conference to be held at Augustana during the Diamond Jubilee Year. This promises to be one of the most important events of the year.

Augustana Foreign Missionary Society The Augustana Foreign Missionary So- ciety is one of the oldest campus organiza- tions, It was formed in 1886, incorpnrated in 1895, and has since its beginning steadily grown in membership until now it has a total roll of over 2,000. The work of the society is felt throughout the entire Synod as it works through stu- dents, alumni and friends to further interest in missionary work and gives frequent bet quests to the foreign field. Each summer the society sends a repre- sentative out to present the cause of mis- sions to the congregations and solicit mem- hershipst 4 h L 4 .. m AW ., 21.33:.- -.- u; - 4 A A AWAAAW . . , ... :ht... -..- -thw. . , 3v - re.- This year, for the hrst time in the history of the college, a radio studio was installed on the campus, Station WHBF of Rock IS- land, the only station in the TrieCities, in- stalled a microphone and amplifying appa- ratus in the lecture room of the Library building which made an ideal studio. About the first of March regular bruadcasts were begun, which have been continueri each week since. Four broadcasts a week have been presented. Granger Westberg, member of the Junior Class, has served as announcer this semes- ter. Under the direction of representatives of the College and School of Music varied COLLEGE BROADCASTING and interesting programs have been pre- sented to a growing audience of listeners. Students of the School of Music, members of the faculty, and Augustana musical or- ganizations have appeared. WHBF likewise braadcast the home games from the Augustana gymnasium. Rather than detracting from the size of the crowd, this arrangement seems to have stim- ulated local and near-by interest in our col- lege basketball. The Augustana Choir appeared in two National Broadcasting Company broadcasts during this spring semester and the debate teams engaged in numerous radio debates. PUBLICITY DEPARTMENT Due tn the work of George Wickstrom, director of publicity, and Bill Kinney, 35, of the Rock Island Argus staFf, Augustana and her activities received a most excellent type of publicity this past year in the local and national press. Many unusual and noteworthy happenings on our campus were reported abroad in such a way that thousands of alumni and friends of'the institution read of them. In addition the department assisted in provid- ing publicity material for use of the Augus- tana Choir preceding its appearances in several midwestern centers. George ' Wickstrom Director of Publicity ATHLETICS Intercollegiate and intramural athletics at Augustana are on a high plane. Under the efficient leadership of the four instructors, Maj. Swedberg, Mr. Kaminski, MI. Alm- quist, and Miss Kummer the department has shown great progress. Consistently high rat- ings in intercollegiate circles as well as an unusually inclusive intramural program combine to give Augustana a truly well- balanced athletic program. gSwedberg Dayf: observed during the basketball season, honored Major Arthur V.

Accumulating a total of 171 points to the opponents' 41, the Vikings showed strength that was at times irresistible. If Augustana had played con- sistent ball at each crucial game, the Vikings would have rated at the coveted top of the conference standingka goal which the Viw king have come extremely close to for three years. In a scrappy opening battle, Augustana took on the class of the Iowa Conference and defeated Iowa Wesleyan 13 to 7. The game was a gond one for an early season contest and gave Shorty a goad idea of the strength of his new material. The Rock Island boys returned ready for a battle with their old opponents, Carthage, whose strength had been tried and found not want- Varsity Football Squad ing by previous teams from Augie, Carth- age, in spite of their red uniforms, Harvard shift and ali were no match for the power fuI Vikings who humbled them by a score of 35 to 0 and thus auspiciously started a murmur and cry amung state sport fans re- garding a possible conference championship for Augusiana tand the Gold and Blueii a hope that was all but realized whenwweil, that comes later. Next week the boys divided their time between staying eligible and preparing for the much publicized Knox eleven, which was reputed to have a trick or two up their their sleeves mguratively speaking. The game ended with a lately typical Augie- Knox gridiron score, ZFO. The contest was featured by long runs and loose playing, although Augustana t'and the Gold and Bluei showed still greater power. HAROLD V. ALMQUJST Head Coach of Football With such an impressive start in confer- ence ratings, Augie almost met its Waterloo in the person of Coach Gordon Fisher and his boys from North Central in a home- coming game which ended in a tie in a typ- ical home-coming menner, 6 to 6. St. Ambrose, always a worthy opponent and a good drawing card When put 011 one gridiron with Augustana, furnished the next opposition in the TrinCity classic football game, played this year at Davenport. After several threats, the Irish were forced to go back up the hill to their campus with the short end of a 6 to 0 score. Needless to say, the jubilation in Augustanats ranks ran high that historic eve. Monmouth, traditional rival from the south, laid a trap for Augustana again this year in the form of a typical fast-charging, hard-hitting team which came within a point of giving Augustana another tie game. How- ever, the toe oi Augustanats pIace-kicker had been better educated or something, as the boys came home from the Monmouthis home-coming game with a 14 to 13 victory. Alas! the fateful game which was to dez stray Augustana's hopes of taking the con- ference title was the contest at Lake Forest. For some strange reason the Vikings did not get going except during a brief drive which netted in their lone touchdown. Late WILLIAM G. KAMINSKI Line Coath .mh . . . . .. whwkwh.

William Penn, of Oskaloosa, Iowa, invited the Vikings out there for the last game of the season. The Vikings defeated the heavy Penn outfit 19 to 6, closing the football ca. reers of Schroeder, Sundeen, Peterson, and Parsons, all of whom had played outstand- ing football for Augustana. The embattled reserves played three games, tying Illinois Military Academy 0-0, being defeated by Macomb Teachers, B team 7-0, and losing to a smart St. Ambrose B team at Davenport, 1 to 0, before a gentle crowd of Irish rooters.

He clinched imme- diately a regular berth and proceeded to show that he deserved it. Fast and heavy, Sam is the ideal lineman. J OHN SCHROEDERFEnd Although football was just another sport for John, he made it the sport of the houre so much so that the foes were at a loss to know how to handle him.

Spring Football In order to observe potential material for the fall grid squad Coaches Almquist and Kaminski have held spring football practice for about five weeks each spring for the past Several years. Many men who are inexpe- rienced in college ball come out in the spring and practice in actual scrimmage with the major portion of the Varsity squad. Many men who expect to attend college in the fall, who have not previously been on the squad 01' who are just to graduate from high school. come out also. To climax the 1934 season a regular game was played between two rival elevens, each one headed by one of the co-captain elects. Fans who could not wait until fall to get their first view of the sport this year turned out in large numbers to see the game which ended 0-0. Augustanais 1933334 basketball season started OE With a bang and ended in grand style. Out of the first seven games: Coach Swedberg sent his boys to victory six times, the black mark being hung on the books by the University of Illinois, during the holiday season. On the home stretch of the season there was no string of victories, but Augie turned tables on both Monmouth and Knox, who were victors in their First engagements, so Augustana fans left the hardwood season in good faith. It was a successful season. Out of eighteen games played by the Norse, only eight times did the Augie buys fail to outscore their opponents. Not only that, but five of the teams that won out over the Vikings were beaten in return games. Illinois, Carthage, and DeKalb are the only Varsity Basketball Squad three schools who can say that they beat AugiE, and that they were not also beaten by Augie. The season opened with the Alumni on December 7. Age proved to be a handicap, the Varsity giving them a drubbing 72 to 29, On their next appearance the Vikings took on a double job, beating both Warthurg and Dubuque University on the same night. University of Illinois came next. It was a big attraction, sponsored by the Moline Junior Chamber of Commerce, in the Mo- Iine Field house. A capacity crowd at- tended, and were dished a generous helping of good basketball by Coach Rubyis team. Illinois was from the start too speedy for the Vikings, but the home fans were thrilled throughout the First half by some hot long- MAJOR A, V. SWEDBERG Director of Athletics, Head Baskethail Coach shot shooting by Merv Horton. If nothing else it started something, for it is intended that Augie should play one big ten team each year from now on. Three victories in a row were scored against Wartburg, Armour Tech. and St. Ambrose. The St, Ambrose game was prob- ably the biggest thriller of the season. Augie was packed to the brim with a howling bunch of St, Ambrose and Augie spectators. Harry Mead, 6 foot 10 inch center from Maywood, was sent into his first important game. Without him the victory would have been impossible. Augie won its first basket- ball game from St. Ambrose in three years. Augie lost to Eureka, won from Bradley, another school which has been hard for the Vikings to beat in past years, and then hit the bad slump of the season. Four games were dropped in a row to Knox, Carthage, St. Ambrose, and Monmouth. The slump was caused largely by a change in semeSw ters, that found the Vikings without the services of Matthews and Horton, two HcIropees, at the end of the first semester. Schroeder, who had been the mainstay of the season, was by this time getting ac- quainted with a new combination. Swanson, who rejoined the squad at the beginning of the second semesterJ started to pair up with Schroeder at forward, and the team hit a new stride for the finish of the season. Both Eureka and Monmouth were taken into camp by close scores on successive nights. It was a decided change in proceedings, for both teams had beaten the Vikings handily earlier in the season. H.

The following night on their way home from the 'hwindy city the Augie boys stopped 03 at DeKalb, and were beaten in a game with the DeKalb conference champs; Augustana was not disgraced, for there were some Augustana fans who would have us believe that the Champion DeKalb boys were better than even the University of Illi- nois. Now the grand finale. Knox, which had humbled Augie 41 to 19 in a previous con ference struggle, found the Swedes deter- mined to win their last game, and they did. The victory was very satisfying, and all Augie enthusiasts passed on from the end of the 1933-'34 season shaking hands to a successful climax. Prospects for next year look good. Butch Miller and Bud Rehr, regular guards, will be back. Harry Mead, the giant center, ought to give the opposing centers plenty to warty about, and Gib Swansen, regular for- ward, is back for two more years of compe- titione Watch the Vikingsh speed next year. 1933-34 BASKETBALL SEASON Augie Opp. Dec.

Johnny has been Augids captain two years in succession, and during his three years as MILLER a regular has been the teanfs individual high-scorer. In his Junior year, Schroeder set an individual onegame scoring record of 22 points, which is likely to stand for some time. He graduates this June. EMERSON MILLER Butch Miller is one of these fellows who loves to fight. In the tint St. Ambrose game, when the Vikings went to town and beat the IrishJ Butch was the boy who was doing a lot of damage. Miller has two more years to go, and should give the opposing for- wards plenty to worry about before he gets through. K ; WODDIN CHARLES REHRa- tCaptain Electt Rehr is a typical college guardt Coming to the hardwood court after playing in the backfield in football, Bud is right in form to give and take a lot of punishment in the back court. If you see a man go under the basket and. get all tangled up in a mass of legs and arms, you can bet Rehr is in the bottom of the pile. His choice as next year's captain was a popular one among fans. HARRY MEAD Harry Mead is the tallest man ever to at- tend Augustana College. His 6 feet 10 inches frame is the best bet in the way of basket- SWANSDN t ball material that a coach could wish. Harry outjumped every man he was up against, and toward the end of the season did his share in the scoring column. If he should learn some tricks around the basket, look out! He has two years to do it in too. GILBERT SWANSON Coming to school at the mid-semester, Gib fitted in perfectly with Swedbergh style of play. It was Swanson who worked the bail around with Schroeder at the foul line on fake-in plays that collected many points for the forwards, especially against Monmouth and Knox. Gib will be back again next year. CZERWINSKI BOB MARACK Bob was the boy who had his picture taken with Harry Mead to contrast the long and the short of it. Although his head does not reach to the big man's Chin, he makes himself worth while by getting there just a little faster than his opponentst He is the kind of fellow that keeps things running smoothly. KENNY PETERSON Ever since Kenny was a freshman, four years agot he has been Augieis regular cen- ter. He was a hard bird to outjump, and a bear on watching opposing centers on foul line plays. It is Swedberg's wish to get mare freshmen with Kennyts size and ability. MARACK MATTY CZERWINSKI Matty broke his way into the Varsity squad in the first game he played. It was when the non-lettermen played the Y-Bul- lets, and Matty scored eight baskets. From then on the boys knew who Matty Czer- winski was. J ERRY WOODIN Jerry was second to Harry Mead in the high tap row. His 6 foot 4 inches of height made him a sure bet for the tip-oFE. Swed- berg often used him at center, when the op- posing center was a hotshot. He was prob- ably Augids best defensive center. u- H --h--:v-u.-:-.-m-:.h...... .

Intercollegiate swimming was not partici- pated in by Augustana this year. Formerly teams from Augustana have entered in sev- eral meets downstate; With the addition of several other events intramural swimming was temporarily omitted this year also. The 'Little Nineteen, The Illinois Intercollegiate Athletic Con- ference, popularly known as the Little Nineteenf of which Augustana is a mem- her, is composed of twenty-one colleges of Illinois. This conference holds intercollegiate competition in all major and. minor spurts. Despite several movements to subdivide the conference into three or four smaller groups it retains its present size With some diffi- culty; Hence a conference champianship in any one sport is decidedly a rarity with most of its member schools. Augustana has had two basketball championships and has had its share 0f succeE in the minor Spurts, al- though no football championship has yet been attained. For the past three years, however, the Vikings have made very strong bids for the title, and so close has it been contested that une paint in a single game has been enough to throw them out of the running.

All activities during Homecoming are Spon- sured by the Pep Committee. If it were not for this group of loyal boosters and their assistant; many of Augustana's traditions would not survive. Cu-chairmen this year were Virginia Hubbart and Melvin Carlson whose tireless work and unfailing interest helped to make Augiets fourteenth Homecoming celebration a huge successt They were most ably as: sisted by Frances Minard, Helen Park, Carol Johnson and Bob Douglass. The Homecoming banquet this year was presided over by President Andreen. Rev. Axel Pearson of Molina was the guest speaker. Vi-King and Vi-Queen, chosen by the student body as John Schroeder and Martha Hasselquist, were announced during the course of the banquet and presented with loving cups. Cups fur the Homecoming pav- rade winners were presented to the Cog and Phi Rho Sororities. The Jenny Lind and Wennerberg choruses sang several se- lectionst Decorations centered around the huge word, Augustana, 0n the shell. A sale of Loyalty calendars, with dates of all school activities, was issued by the Alumni oFfice and sponsored on the campus by the Pep Committee. Pep Committee Carlson. HubbarL MtnarcL Park.

Final standings in 1932-1933 Intramural competition, which did not include the Sem- inary group, showed the Pi Upsilon Gamma fraternity leaciing the field by a margin of 129 points over the nearest competitors, Gamma Alpha Beta. The winners Finished With 944 points, scoring in each of the thir- teen possible divisions. Although the Pi Upsilon Gamma brethren finished with the Intramural championship, they were forced to concede superiority in 'four divisions of the yeafs program. Both the Beta Omega Sigma and Phi Omega Phi men bested the champions at touch football. Points on varsity football, varsity basket- ball, Ah basketball, and tennis singles, also went elsewhere, yet the Pugs remained on top. Intramurals during the 1933 Spring sea- son, including track, golf, tennis singles, swimming and diamond-ball, made little change in standings of the fraternities. Swimming, in which there was varsity com- petition in 1933, was won by the champion Pi Upsilon Gamma squad; diamond-ball, offering a chance to someone for bigger and better points, also went to the champs. Omicron Sigma Omicron, working for a share of the yearis gloryJ took tennis honors by a 1-point margin. Golfethe way real college men play itewas won by Phi Omega Phi. Thirri of the major sports, track, came in for its share of the limelight last year. Scraping the Cinders off their shoes after the last meet, Pi Upsilon Gamma men again were at the top. Individual performances worthy of men- tion were those of John Schroeder, who finished by wiping OFF the tennis chalienge board for the championship, and Dick Otis, golfer par excellence. Interfraternity athletics for the 1933-34 season opened with a series of 45 touch- fuotball games. Phi Omega Phi, scoring eight victories and one defeat, won the se ries. A tie for second between Pi Upsilun Gamma and Omicron Sigma Omicron, each with six victories, one defeat and two tied gamesJ was allowed to remain. Others Fin- ishing the season, with their percentages, were the Seminary Seniors, i625, Seminary Juniors, .625, Beta Omega Sigma, .500, Omega Nu Omega, .285, Gamma Alpha Beta, 2.50, Seminary Middlers, .142, and Rho Nu Delta, .000. Balmy spring days somewhat affected volley-ball players, and although there were 45 matches played, which meant some hun- dred and fifteen or more games, Final results on the matter were late in forthcoming. Huwever, two leagues of basketball, whose members vied with each other far that en- viable grace and form achieved by more fortunate varsity cagers, Punished a season of 89 games. In both HAn and 7137 leagues, Omicron Sigma Omicron closed the season with the highest average, the 050 Bn team incidentally batting a percentage of one thousand. Ranking second in the A7 league were the Seminary Seniorst with a .777 average.

A free-for-all free-throw contest, part of which served its contestants in good stead during the duration of the many campus social functions, finished with the Phi Omega men in first place, Gamma Alpha Beta dunk; ing a close second. The '34 track season opened with Intra- murals on En'csson field Saturday, April 14. P1 Upsilon Gamma, with Bill Lovett run- ning two firsts in the two shorter ciashes, finished at the tap of the bracket; Gamma Alpha Beta placed second. Chet Brandt, star distance runner for the Norse, carried Beta Omega Sigma colors for the better part of the Bo points. He easily won the mile and 2-mile events. Swimming, usually a spring event in In- tramural competition, was cut out due to lack of varsity work in the tank this year. Thus did Intramurals draw near the close of another year. Bill Kaminski, track cuach and assistant football mentor, was the super- visor of all the Intramural competition as they fought for glory anti hnnur of their re- spective groups. Under his guiliance sched- ules were organized, played, and completed. The Intramural ProgrameA Modern Necessity Up until a few years ago most students at Augustana, as in most colleges and univer- sities, were content to be merely the spec- tators or the cheering section for the varsity contests. It seemingly never occurred to most Athletic Departments that the program of Sports could be broadened to include every able student on the campus in some sport or other. With the coming of Mr. Kaminski Augus- tana instituted an ambitious, comprehensive intramural program that included opportu- nities for every male student to participate in practically every sport that the Varsity included, and several other minor sports not included in intercollegiate competition. No longer was the joy of competitive, healthful sports afforded only those few who were perhaps exceptionally fine athletes. Coach Kaminski efficiently organized the program, adding features each year until interest in the Intramurals became school-wide. Students of Augustana hope to see this most important phase of Athletics kept up on the high level upon which Bill Ka- minski has put it .31. 45r- 4-5-39 .- z-r-L e .; 1m 0 ?0q mEEEMBm 9:. Agni .1.

STUDENT LEAGUE OF CONTROL ESKIL WEAMS, t36 ZYNTHIA WEAMS, t39 JON WOK The purpose of the Student League of Control is to control lots of nice things like control boards and other things. They are kind of centrally and every- thing, too. They have meetings and things. Rhumha is proudy-proud of its St L. of C. Rah! The S. L. of C. has had to decide many grave issues this year. Each time they have had a verbal tussle. Did you ever have a verbal tussle? If you :11an why didnt you? No meetings were held this year as the S. L. of C. failed to function last year. However, the boys got together and had this picture taken which showa exactly how such leagues look when photographed. Officers of Student League satisfy- ing the Inner Man just on the eve of a great verbal battle. INTERFRASORITY COUNCIL Last year the boys got together and decided to have a council of representatives from each frater- nity. As there were no fraternities in existence a very grave problem loomed up before the assembled group. How was there to be a muncil without frai ternities? What could be done about it? Where? Why? Who? The women than met and decided to have an in tersorority council. N o sororities existed on the campus, 50 the problem was still unsolved. A meet- ing of the Board of Directors was called and it was decideri to do the following: At Combine both councils. Bt Strike the proceedings off the minutes. Ct Write a petition.

The pictures at the left show three of the seven classes in attendance at Rhumba. The other four classes are the White-collar class, the Laboring class, the Public Enemy class and the Sophomores. The Sophomores were busy with outside activities when these pictures were taken, but send their sincere greetings to the brethren, Notable among the achievements of the Senior class was its graduation, which made everyone at Rhumba tRahi feel better. The freshmen were noted for their mania for spelling bees, which some- times grew so hotly contested as to create dangerous personal antagonism. The Juniors are the personal- ity men of the University and divided their time be- Seniors . FTEShmBn tween showing people the campus and playing the Juniors slide trombone. A new policy was instituted this year as far as class advisorship was con- cerned.

Our university can rightfully be proud of its Dra- matics. Under the leadership of the masterful, sweeping and gracious Jack Weams the department has risen to tremendous heights. Pleeeeezl Early in the year the P. T. A. got going and in- flicted a thing called HWhither thou Zephyrs'W a mixture of lovely males with silken gowns and der- bies and music played on a burrowed Victrnla. With streaming eyes the audience left, touched to the quick Goo quickD by the lines as recited 'by Boscoe Anselberger 0f the School of Experience. Net re- ceipts, a deficit of '78 cents, were morally dedicated to the furtherance of cosmetics among animals, or some such great cause. My Blue Heavens deserves special mention be- cause the cast performed it without an audience, and any actor will tell you if you ask him as man to man, that it is almost impossible to perform minus an audience. Not that it made much difference, now that wetve given the credit, for the curtain remained closed anyway, so if there was an audience they didnt stay. The cast was as follows: ttMollythertha Weams ttMeheBerthy Weams ttBabyheBurtha Weams The chorus wurk was done by a hired group of old men in nightgowns who sat around the edge of the stage and muttered incessantly the word ikahoops on a high C. Considerable difficulty was experienced in convincing them to leave after the performance but a bag 0f candy did the trick. As a climax and anti-climax to the dramatic sear son here, the department united in force and pra- sented ttFaust with period scenery and costumes. The Janitor's league sponsored this performance. No parts could be found which required mops, so they had to be content with repairing chairs out in the auditorium during the performance. When asked for a quotation by the press, Mr. Weams said, hVery liltingesomewhat melancholyealtogether wholesome for one and allethatts funny, come soun, precariously purchased, new sing too though. Awed by this display of learning the reporters went home to study the classics. Scene from ttWh'itheT Thou Zeph- yrsir , Presented by Rhumba P.T.A.

Give me Men, who are Men, whc are Stout- hearted Men, who will fight for the right they adore!n Thus sang out Coach Ansel'berger in a wavering tenor one early September morning, Although the men who answered the call were neither Stout- hearted nor stout, they adored the right hand thafs something. thafs all that matters said Coach, as he consoled the softhhearted faculty, who were al- ready seated in the bleachers. The athletic program to which these men would be put to work was made up as follows: THE ANSELBERGER PATENTED SYSTEM OF PHYSICAL EDUCATION or A New Man in Nineteen Days.

FOOTBALL Undoubtedly the high point of the football season occurred during the game with the St. Louis Osteoe paths when Weams, star flash tackle, took the ball away from the quarterback, threw himself a forward pass, then a lateral pass, made one touchdown, then punted from behind the line back to the field, caught it himself and ran it back for another touchdown. . . only to find that he was an ineligible recipient of the forward pass. He hurriedly went to the stands and left the game with his parents, who called the referee all kinds of nasty names. The Urbana Osteopaths defeated our boys by a score of 1945 to 6. A check-up revealed that the game had been playeH with a deflated hall. To close the season the Rhumba University Band decided t0 take on the varsity. Wok, piccolo soloist, rode to one touchdown after another on the end 0f the slide trombone. When the other team had the ball the Band played Columbia, the Gem of the Ocean,1 so loudly that the varsity was unable to hear the signals and consequently no plays were exe- cuted. Rah! STOOP TAG ttWe want a scientific game, said Coach Wok of the Tag division. Thus it was that stoop tag was started here. Rah! A squad of seventy came hopping to the call of the coach. After two weeks of practice on the fine points of the game the following team was chosen: Leh StoopiJeahne Wok, Center Stoop-Chas. Jnoe Wok, Right StoopeAlgot Wok, Backstoopesigne Wok, ShortstoopeWok, DoorstookWedge Ansel- herger. Captain Wok aEm-ded much amusement by con- tinually crying, ttStucp it! You,re tickling me! Taken altogether the team stompee pretty low. FACE TAG Some of the better-looking men of the university formed a face tag team which was realiy quite suc- cessful. Buxley WokJ having a mustache and side bums, was the star of the team and easily took the state meet; Whenever Bux appeared the opposition walked out and a forfeit was declared All over his face he hears the scars of battle. Rah! At the State meet Bux really stepped out and did things. Turning his face toward the East he was able to get a full six hundred anti ten yards away before the apposition spied him. The closest that anyone got to this record distance was six hundred and two yards in 1928. Spring football squad practices indoors for crucial title game with Urbamt Osteopaths.

The back row was purposely chosen tall so as to be able to see over the heads of the front row. Although the boys in the back row cannot sing, thEy have been taught to give some very interesting facial expressions which keep the cruwd amused.
