PITTENGER, Prr'si1lc'l1t 'If is difficult for some of us to realize that the time of your graduation is at hand. Only yesterday, it seems, we were Welcoming you to the campus for the first time and now, alas, it is adieu and goodbye. As we wish you Well we would warn you not to be over-persuaded that your times is so disjointed that you will' not realize on life. Of course, war days do disrupt our plans and do make impossible many fine things we should like to do, but, as I see it, you face a future Hlled with opportunities to reconstruct the whole world. By the time ambitious tyrants are shackled the world will be a shambles and you and others of your age will have to' clear the fields of battle, raze shell-torn buildings and reconstruct the ways of life for enslaved peoples. What an opportunity! I find myself wishing that I might be permitted to throw off my years and join your ranks. Your college education is worth more than any I have known in my school teaching life. Factories, army, and navy call insistently for college-trained people, and only those who know something of the skills necessary to operate the technical machinery of our age have a chance at leadership. The social, economic, and political problems of our time are so complex that only those well prepared may ever hope to solve them. Life challenges you to take up its most serious and hazardous tasks. Be brave and persistent until you have guaranteed unto yourselves and to those who come after you a decent place to live and a reasonable opportunity to live in peace and hope. With best wishes to each of you, Ball State bids you farewell. Sincerely, L, A, PlT'1'IiNK.llR Prvxiilrrlf STATE TEACHERS COLLEGE BOARD SERVING both Ball State Teachers College and Indiana State Teachers College in the administration of their financial and educational affairs, is the State Teachers College Board.

Operator CARMINE ALVEY, R.N Nurse, Health Service 37 BURRIS SCHOOL VERY PHASE of elementary and secondary school instruction is given due emphasis and made available to the student at the Burris Laboratory School, which is under the capable supervision of Dr. Earl A. Johnson, principal. Modern in its physical plant and progressive in its policy, the school is associated with the college and provides oppor- tunity for college students and faculty members from other schools of the state to observe the modern methods of education being put into practice. Facilities and equip- ment offer much opportunity for the full development' of each. individual pupil. A recent new addition to the Burris School building has provided additional class- rooms for mathematics, science, business education, social studies, English, and four elementary groups. The home economics and industrial arts areas have been re-organized along with the art area to make possible a. unified arts work shop in which home arts, fine arts, and industrial arts are housed. Recreation has not been omitted in the new addition, as a new gymnasium and rec- reation rooms have been included to make it possible for Burris pupils from kindergarten through high school to have daily classes in physical education. A public address system, recently installed, makes it possible to make announcements to every room and receive communication from every room through the principal's office. V Bi 'iz BOOK STORE NDER the capable supervision of Miss Ruth Kitchin, supplies for every academic need are made available for students and faculty at the Book Store, which is one of the most interminably busy spots on the campus. Stationery, greeting cards, art and athletic supplies, sweaters, gifts, college jewelry, books, candy, stamps are but a few of the items which are to be found there for sale. The Book Store is owned by the college and operated under the direction of the con- troller's office. It is operated on a non-profit basis and exists for the purpose of furnish- ing books and supplies to students at the lowest prices consistent with excellent service. Aibranch post office is maintained in the store, which gives the same outgoing mail service as is given in the main post ofHce. Other services extended by the Book Store are ticket sales for campus events and a travel bureau, which gives information and sells tickets for bus service to any part of the country. 39 if HE TEACHING MATERIALS SERVICE, operated in conjunction with the library, is located on the second floor of the Library Building. This service has become Very valuable for-providing visual materials for use in student teaching and for classwork on the campus. Among the numerous materials available there are 14,000 mounted pictures, 400 mounted maps, 1,600 lantern slides, 76 reels of motion picture film, 2,500 art postal cards, 100 folios of plates of masterpieces in fine arts, architecture, painting and sculpture. There are also 60 pieces of pottery and glass, 25 wood carvings, and a loan gallery of 130 framed pictures which may be borrowed by students in the same manner that books are borrowed from the library. These pictures provide artistic decorations for the rooms of many students, who may borrow them for one quarter. 40 TEACHING MATERIALS SERVICE LIBRARY O THE Ball State Library is endowed the honor of being one of the best equipped libraries in the state. Its volumes number more than 73,600, in addition to which are more than 14,100 in the Burris School Library. Included in this number are 700 reference books and 7,550 volumes of bound magazines and newspapers. Students have free access to the book stacks as well as to the bound volumes of magazines, reference books, current numbers of magazines, and newspapers in the reading room. The brows- ing room, located at the west end of the circulation room, is a nook for recreational reading only. It is equipped with comfortable chairs and is frequented often by those who wish to read newer books which have been placed in the library. As new books are purchased, they are diplayed in a case in the northwest corner of the main level of the stacks, where they may be inspected by faculty and students before being placed in circulation. A fine addition to the library this year has been the instal- lation of new flourescent lights in the reading room and circulation room. FOOD for intellectual thought is to be obtained on every hand on a college campus such as Ball State's, but food in the material sense of the word is every whit as important. Thus one of the most frequented establishments is that of the Cafeteria, located in Frank Elliott Ball Residence Hall. Like the Book Store, the Cafeteria is also operated by the college on a non-profit basis and is open to faculty and students. A large kitchen supplied with modern equipment makes possible the sanitary preparation of food for the Cafeteria which, in addition to regular service, serves luncheons, dinners, breakfasts, and large banquets for special occasions. Well-balanced meals are prepared under the direction of a trained dietitian at reasonable prices. Miss Jessie Lowe is director of the dining service for the college, and Miss Arrawanna Kiser is assistant director. Students are employed by the college and N. Y. A. to Work along with the regular assistants in the kitchens. Waiter service in the dining room is done by men students, while women students help in preparing and serving the food. Meals are served three times daily. CAFETERIA z.s:,,m.mm9f Mane- -.Q ,mpuwf HEALTH SERVICE PLEASANT SURPRISE this year to those who often fre- quent the Health Service was the result of its expansion and rejuven- ation program which took place last summer. Two new offices, two new treatment and dressing rooms, and a new waiting room enclosed within a new type of attractive glass and English Beech glass par- titions from the five new rooms which have increased the size of the Health Service to eight rooms. Equipped with short-wave diathermy, long-wave diathermy, ultra-violet, Eve thermic and infra-red lamps, and simple hydrotherapy or contrast leg-baths, the Health Service exists on the campus to: promote the physical well being of every student on the Ball State campus, Entering freshmen and all matriculates have a thorough physical examination in order to complete their registration, and athletes are examined at intervals during each term of their participation in competitive sports. Since 1937, through the cooperation of Ball Memorial Hospital. hospitalization has been made available to resident students. Under this program, .1 maximum of forty dollars of medical service is provided to each student and is applicable not only during one's stay in the hospital for acute medical and surgical conditions, but also for labora- tory work when indicated or prescribed by the Health Service. This also includes autogenous vaccines used for upper respiratory infections. 43 STUDENT EXECUTIVE CCUNCIL THE purpose of the Student Executive Council, which was organized on the campus in 1933, is to promote and correlate student activities and to encourage greater student-faculty cooperation. To further this, members of the council were invited to conduct a panel discussion at a faculty meeting dur- ing the year. The organization sponsors each year the homecoming celebration which highlights the fall social activities of the college. General chair- man for homecoming activities this year, which was observed October 18, was Wayne Klingerman. Of outstanding interest also this year was the ap- pointment for the first time in the history of the school of girl cheer leaders, Betty Chandler Klinger- man, Marilyn Mowrey, and later Zelia Nicholson, who assisted Sherman Conn, Don Schroedel and James Walker. All performed with unequalled vigor throughout the year at all athletic events, and wore attractive red and white uniforms inscribed with Ball State insignias, which the Student Executive I Charles Miller Esther Dupont Gerhart Schwartz Elmira Park Warren Jones Rebecca Nottingham II Naomi Antle Doyle Collier Martha Bowyer Leo Nussbaum Becky Seidel William Welke 1 44 STUDENT EXECUTIVE COUNCIL Council was instrumental in providing, through the cooperation of the Athletic Committee. The annual Dlad's Day observance is also an out- standing celebration sponsored by S. E. C. This year Dad's Day was observed on January 13, and was in charge of Earl Sample, chairman. S. E. C. has also assisted in the formation of the college defense committee by sending one student from each sub-committee of the organization as rep- resentatives. The council also heads the newly- formed social council for curtailing social and rec- reational campus expenses and use of time in keeping with the all-out victory effort with which the college is cooperating. Officers of the council are, president, Gerhart Schwartz, vice-president, William Welke, formerly Richard Weserg secretary, Rebecca Seidel, and treas- urer, Martha Bowyer, formerly Doyle Collier. Councilmen now in service are Wayne Klingerman, Robert Smith, Doyle Collier and Richard Weser.

Each year a survey of the entering freshman class is made, and all freshmen with speech diih- culties are invited to come to the clinic for as- sistance. The clinic is well equipped with basic instru- ments in speech correction such as: recording machines, audiometers, instruments for examin- ing nose, mouth and throat, and instruments for retraining articulatory movements. The corrective programs are carried on for' short periods two or three times each week with cases needing treatment. CHILD DEVELOPMENT SERVICE The Child Development Service was established in March, 1938, through a gift from the George and Frances Ball Foundation. It aims to give emphasis to the growing belief that the home is as important educationally as is the school and that parents and teachers should join in study- ing the task of guiding growing children and young people. To accomplish these purposes, the service gives specinc guidance to children of normal potentiality referred to it by parents or teachers. Staff members of the service meet weekly with parent study groups to consider problems raised by the parents. As a result of the contact made in these parent groups, frequent conferences are held with individual parents to consider individual problems. 3 HX ug ji 55 in 1 ff nf , M ff W 'fx . as UPPERCLASSMEN X: Mm New 12.9 ' 1 Lois Felder, Secrvlary Martha Ellen Huff, Treasurm' Genevieve Chambers, Pl't'5ffIL'IZf SENIORS HOUGH war clouds hung over the class of 1942, each member, who found it possible, has finished his training amid great uncertainty and is now ready to serve his country as best he can. The class has lost many of its members to the armed forces. Fred McClung and Doyle Collier, freshman and sophomore presidents of the class, were among these who are now absent from the campus. Wilbur Holloway, junior president, is still with us. At the start of the fall quarter, Robert Smith was elected president and served until he left to serve his country. At that time Genevieve Chambers, the vice-president, took over and served as president for the remaining school year. Willi- miene Rich was elected then to take over the ofliice of vice-president. Martha Ellen Huff and Lois Felder served as treasurer and secretary for the final year. The class, like most senior classes, has had its outstanding members who have brought glory to the class. Humorists, actors, actresses, musicians, columnists, politicians and scholars have gained recognition, Class sponsors who have guided the class through its Hnal year were Frances Botsford, Robert LaFollette, Orville Sink, Floy I-Iurlbut, H. A. Jeep, and Elizabeth Meloy. 48 GENE RICHARDS, B.A. Muncie Science, Bnsirzzfsx Erl1zc'ali011 Navajo, S. E. C., Sigma Zeta, Pi Omega Pi Kappa Delta Pi, Blue Key, Commerce Club WILLIMIENE RICH, B. S.

One of the first to be inducted into military service was DeWitt Cochard, who was elected president of the junior class in the fall, After the departure of Mr. Cochard from the campus, Alice Mendenhall took over the oflice of president. Evangeline Fuhrman and Mary Strain served as treasurer and secretary. The class of 1942 showed its ability to do the unusual many times during the year. One such case was the annual production of the follies. This year, A Waltz Dream, by Oscar Strauss, was given. The cast was made up almost entirely of juniors, and the production turned out to be an excellent dream for the audience. Although short of man power, the class made up the deficiency with its vast supply of feminine charm and business ability. In every undertaking, the juniors showed promise of being another outstanding senior group. Sponsors for the year were Charles F. Van Cleve, Mary Beeman, Vernal H. Carmichael, Donald Miller, Grace Woody, Sharley DeMotte, and Edgar Menk.

At the class election in the fall, June Havens was elected to the post of president. At the same time Helen Williams, Fern Mattax, and James Smith were chosen to fill the oflices of vice-president, secretary, and treasurer. The class of 1944 had many activities during the year. Highlighting these affairs was the freshman-sophomore dance held on Friday, February 13. The class gained much recognition and attention by presenting the first all-sophomore convocation. The activities of the class concluded with a party on May 20. Sponsors of the class included Harry Fitch, Hazel Cox, Paul Williams, Eldon R. Burke, Evelyn Hoke, Ardith L. Phillips, and Viola Bryson. 87 DUDE RANCH PARTY CLASS OF 1945 Elizabeth Kercheval, Vice-jzrexirlent Constance Carlson, T1'eas1u'er Lc-:Roy Schwartz, President Betty Jo Millspaugh, Secretary 88 FRESHMEN HE CLASS OF 1945 had the familiar appearance of a freshman group, but after a few weeks, the members became a part of the college and began to function with distinction. One of the first actions of the class was to elect LeRoy Schwartz to the office of president. John Doolittle, Emilyann Nieman, and Constance Carlson were also chosen at that time to serve as vice-president, secretary, and treasurer. Later in the year Elizabeth Kercheval took over the position of vice-president, and Betty Jo Millspaugh was named secretary. The freshmen had numerous activities in the course of the school year. They passed through the ordeal of homecoming. They found time to have an exciting time at a dude ranch party. The annual sophomore- freshman dance was held. Sponsors for the class included Mildred Johnson, Esther Swenson, Roy D. Maxwell, John Magnabosco, Gordon E. Peterson, Lawrence Scheidler, Susan B. Trane, Helen Gormley. 89 xv .. .'

The Athletic Committee outlines the ethical policies maintained by Ball State's teams in their attempts to remain near the top in their leagues and to keep on friendly athletic terms with neighbor schools. This group whose duties are so varied also renders such services as making awards, giving sweaters, establishing eligibility, and appropriating funds. The group, appointed by the President, is composed of individuals who are well informed on the various angles of what it takes to make success in the realm of athletics. Paul Royalty, realistic-minded gentle- man who knows the answers to the intricate problems of athletics in this streamlined era, acts as chairman of the group. An expert planner and joint head of athletics and physical education, Paul Williams is a figure Whose word commands weight in committee sessions. Viola Bryson rep- resents the women's athletic viewpoint. Frank Graham, a friend of athletics well-versed in Indiana Conference lore, is a delegate of conserva- tive instructional opinion. W. E. Wagoner, ultimate holder of the purse- strings, has the practical suggestion. John Magnabosco offers the coach- ing slant. .91 A.. . 1 4 J - J .1 4 ,. -. . . .... . ,. -,,. ty .

ATHLETIC INSTRUCTORS HROUGI-I the efforts of Ball Stateis athletic instructors, the vast facilities that Ball State possesses for athletics are used to the greatest advantage. Whether one considers the varsity sports or the intramurals, one finds that each instructor of the athletic department handles the situation with ease and efficiency. Through the careful planning of the staff, activities cover a wide range - swimming, bowling, tennis, modern danc- ing, basketball, handball, etc. It is almost an impossibility to find an individual Whose needs in the realm of sports cannot be met by the ath- letic department. In the years to come, the influence of these instructors upon each student in respect to good sportsmanship and fair play will be more and more evident in his daily contact with civilization. 92 SENIOR Bn MEN WITHIN the larger B Club organization is the small, select group of senior lettermen, representing those athletes who turned in their Cardinal uniforms this year in exchange for a lifetime pass to Ball State athletic events. Efforts expended and rewards received have been varied. Some have pounded the cinder track in the spring and fall. Others have changed uniforms with the changing of seasons, performing in turn with the football, basketball, and baseball squads. Material awards have been handed them in form of letter sweaters and little ribbons or bronze but- tons which represent achievement in various sports. The student body, the public, the newspapers, and the radio have praised them. In later years the true value of their contributions to the college and of the re- wards from their efforts can be better judged when the thrills that they have provided will be but a memory and will not overshadow the true value of their deeds. Senior B men pictured are as follows: First row-Robert Lockwood, Eugene Friedt, Lowell LaMotte, William Welke, Edward May, and Way- mond Ferguson, Second row'-Newton Meer, Clayton Smith, Laverne Hartley, Norman Eilar, and Howard Stout, Third row--I-Iarold Dick, John McSparin, and Clifford Joyce. 93 BLUE KEY VICTORY BELL STELLAR EVENT for which the fall of '41 A will long be remembered was the regaining of the Blue Key Victory Bell on Saturday, Novem- ber 15, from Ball State's sister opponent, Indiana State Teachers College, located at Terre Haute. Campus talk concerning the avenging of the 1940 defeat started early in the fall of '41, and grim was the purpose of the Cardinal team. Other games scheduled were unimportant compared to the necessity and grim determination for trim- ming I. S. T. C. in avengance for their carrying off the Victory Bell, which originated on this campus. At a Blue Key dinner meeting the week pre- ceding the game, Coach Magnabosco, who is a former Blue Key member and a present Blue Key sponsor, even went so far as to say he would hold the Bell on his lap all the way to Muncie, 94 if the boys would win the game. He did-a goodly portion of the way-after coaching the best game of the season against a powerful op- ponent. Welcomed home by a small nucleus of students, the celebrants acquired the Bell from under lock and key, and by parading over the campus soon acquired a large representation of the student body, attired in various articles of sleeping apparel, having been aroused after curfew at Lucina Hall and after a few catnaps at Elliott Hall and various rooming houses. Maggie'l and the team in an open car followed the student crowd led by a cart bearing the Vic- tory Bell in a parade through downtown Muncie. Pep sessions were held on the lawn of the Mag- nabosco residence, on the lawn at the Court House, and eventually the crowd paid a visit to the home of President L. A. Pittenger, who sleepily greeted the crowd, after having been awakened from peaceful slumber. Also sleepily, he granted a holiday to be observed on Monday, after which the crowd continued its parade and held pep sessions on the lawns of Dean Ralph W. Noyer and Coach Paul B. Williams. Mondayls observance brought forth a glorious pep session and student convocation in honor of team members and coaches, followed by another parade through downtown Muncie and climaxed by an informal dance in the evening. The renowned Victory Bell, which was brought to the school from the farm of Ralph Hinshaw's father, was Hrst used at Ball State College in the fall of 1940, at which time I. S. T. C. delayed our Cardinals and marched off with the Bell. Rumors wafted on the breezes contained the in- formation that I. S. T. C. students proffered quite a wild and riotous celebration in the old coal town and wrangled their way with the authorities into a half-day holiday, topped off with a dance in the evening. The purpose of the Victory Bell, as stated by Blue Key men, is to promote interest, to create better relationships between the two sister schools, and to foster a closer spirit and fellowship be- tween the Blue Key Chapters of the two schools. FCDOTBALL QC Kenneth Cole FOOTBALL DESPITE a lack of reserve material, John Magnabosco's Ball State College football team finished on the bright side of the won and lost column in 1941. The Cardinals played seven games, winning three, losing two, and finishing on even terms with the adversary in two. Ball State defeated Valparaiso, Cen- tral Normal, and Indiana State, lost to Butler and Central Mich- igan State, and tied DeKalb and Manchester. The Cardinal gridders exhibited quite a bit of fight during the season and with' a break here and there might have won at least two of the four games which fell on the other side of the fence. Ball State looked good against Butler for three quarters but lack of sufhcient reserve strength turned the tide in the fourth period. A last-quarter touchdown cost the Cardinals the homecoming tilt against Central Michigan's Bearcats. Ball State was at peak form at the fag end of the season, attested by its surprise victory over the haughty Indiana State Sycamores. The Terre Haute school unmercifully maltreated the Red and White in 1940, and last year's spanking was regarded as the old evening-up process. The Muncie collegians traveled to DeKalb, Ill., for the seasonls opener, playing a 6-to-6 tie with the Illinois contingent. The game was played in a near constant downpour of rain which soaked players and spectators alike before the end of the first quarter. Ball State splashed to a touchdown early in the second quarter and held a 6-to-0 lead until four minutes remained in the game. 96 Waymond Ferguson Ralph Bibler The Huskies oozed the pigskin across the last white QFD marker in the final minutes to tie the game at 6-all. An unknown sophomore proved the undoing of Ball State in its annual tussle with Butler's Bulldogs. The game was played on Friday night, October 10, at Butler Bowl and some 10,000 fans, including many Cardinal partisans, huddled in the stands to watch the fracas. A feeling that the Muncie team would end the Butler athletic domination permeated the Magic City atmosphere and gained momen- tum when the Cardinals raced down the field to score in the opening quarter. Two long touchdown jaunts by Boris Dimancheff, the Butler sophomore, took the wind out of Ball State's sails and ended all dreams of conquest. Thei Hrst Bulldog score came in the middle of the third period. After trying three times and being stopped just in sight of the double stripe, Butler again gained possession of the ball on the 43-yard- line. On the next play, Dimancheff -shook loose around right end and galloped to the goal line. Big Tom Sleetis place kick was good and the Bulldogs led, 7 to 6. Butler, benefitting from its ability to substitute freely in the first half, was in better shape to start the last period than was Ball State who, because of lack of reserves had played the first three quarters without a substitution. In the fourth period, the Cardinals were forced on the defensive but were succeeding in keeping the big Indian- apolis team from scoring territory. However, Dimancheff was not through. Catching Bob Biedenweg's punt on his own 45, the Butler sophomore eluded would-be tacklers and scampered across the goal line for the final count of 13 to 6. , Central Michigan's Bearcats were the Ball State home- coming opponents on Saturday, October 18. A last-quar- ter touchdown spoiled the festive occasion so far as the 97 James Baldw n Franc s Carpenter NVayne Simpson Randolph Noel james Stone Paul Miller Cardinals were concerned, the Michigan team adding the extra point to gain a 7-to-6 decision. Ball State's second- quarter touchdown resulted from an aerial attack, which was launched when sallies against the ponderous Central Michigan line proved costly. Ball State's ozone attack was led by sophomore Bob Biedenweg, who kept heaving the pigskin down the field into the waiting arms of Cardinal receivers. The touch- down pass was gathered in by left end Ralph Bibler, who leaped high in the air to snag the ball. The Bearcats turned the tide in the final period. Bart- nick, Central Michigan halfback, scampered down the side- lines for 45 yards and was downed within inches of the goal line. A few seconds later, Kacsynski, Bearcat full- back, hurdled the line to tie the count at 6-all. The try for extra point was good. Valparaiso was the next port of call for Ball State and the jaunt northward seemed to be just the tonic needed to revive the Cardinal spirit. The Muncie team Wallopecl the Uhlans fnow the Crusadersj, 40 to 0. The Red and White were a near perfect team at Valparaiso, capitaliz- ing on all the breaks and taking advantage of scoring op- portunities. Ball Stateis scoring was equally divided, the Cardinals pulling into a 20-to-0 advantage at the end of the half. Ball State touchdowns were scored by Newt Meer QZQ, Francis Carpenter, Wayne Simpson, Frank Bogle and Earl Arnold. Paul KP. KJ Miller place-kicked three extra points and Bogle accounted for another. Valparaiso threat- ened the Cardinal goal line late in the second quarter, but the rally was halted by the half-time gun. Manchester and Ball State tangled in a 0-to-0 deadlock on Saturday, November 1, at Cardinal Field. The weather 98 Frank Bogle Richard Donovan Edward Langas man was not in a cooperative mood for the occasion, a cold wind and slippery turf being responsible for much fumbling and ragged offensive play. It was the second tie of the campaign for Ball State and pushed them out of a tie for a contending position in the Indiana Conference. The Spartans threatened to score about five times during the game, once getting as far goalward as the 18-inch line. A strong Ball State defense was the most valuable asset and proved to be a godsend before the afternoon was over. Never able to get an offense moving, the Cardinals failed to advance any distance into Manchester territory. The following Saturday was no better from the weather man's viewpoint, although Ball State fandom was better satisfied with the results. Playing in a driving snowstorm that turned the gridiron into a quagmire, the Cardinals smothered Central Normal's Purple Warriors, 33 to 0, in the final home game of the season. What crowd there was sat huddled under blankets and many of them went home at the half after it was definitely determined that Central Normal would not prove a serious problem. So effectively did Ball State control the ,situation that Central Normal failed to complete a first down. Frank Bogle and Wayne Simpson each scored two touchdowns for the home forces and Dick Donovan garnered the other. Paul Miller's educated toe accounted for the two extra points. The game of the year was played on Saturday after- noon, November 15, at Indiana State. The Sycamores had one of their better years in football and were seeing championship gonfalons hanging from various parts of the Terre Haute campus. Imagine their chagrin, however, when Ball State's Cardinals rolled into town and kept right on rolling to a 7-to-0 victory! 99 The hrst half of the traditional Cardinal-Sycamore fracas caused little rejoicing in the visitors' camp. The tide of battle changed midway of the third period, how- ever, when Ball Stateas Gene Friedt recovered a fumble on the Indiana State 47-yard line. From that point, the Red and White started a sustained drive down the field which was terminated by Dick Donovan's touchdown jaunt from the Indiana State eight-yard line. Paul Miller, who had been removed in the first quarter because of injuries, re- turned to place-kick the extra point. Ball State outsmarted Wally Marks' Sycamores in the final quarter, playing an entirely different brand of ball than was the case in the opening period. Fighting des- parately, the Cardinals avenged a 27-to-7 blasting handed them the year before by Indiana State. On the evening of the team's return to Muncie, a large student delegation participated in an impromptu victory celebration. Even administration heads of the college were not immune to what the Cardinals had accomplished and granted a respite from classwork on the following Monday. Monday morning, Ball State's students staged pep sessions and marched in a victory parade which wound through the business district of Muncie. The Blue Key Victory Bell was returned to Ball State after a one-year leave of absence. The Cardinal win over Indiana State was the sixth for the Red and White in the current series. Up until Pearl Harbor, prospects for the 1942 football season were bright, but with the entrance of America into the second world war, many of the Ball State gridiron hopefuls will be wearing the uniform of the country's armed forces. However, the Cardinals will not be alone in this respect, as practically every school on the local schedule will be so affected. 100 Earl Arnold Newton Meer Robert Biedenweg Eugene Freidt Seniors who Hnished their careers with the Indiana State game were Ralph Bibler of Warsaw, end, Kenneth Cole of Attica, tackle, Waymond Ferguson of Warsaw, halfback, Gene Friedt of Decatur, guard, Robert Lockwood of Fair- mount, halfback, Newt Meer of Michigan City, halfback, and Paul Miller of Peru, guard. Members of the Ball State football team who are either out of school or have signed with the nation's armed forces are: Randolph Noel of Pendleton, tackle, Victor Kedrov- sky of Gary, fullback, James Stone of Marion, tackle, Frank Bogle of Bicknell, halfback, John Doering of Wakarusa, end, Howard Shropshire of Peru, tackle, and William Kelly of Kokomo, halfback. Several others are expected to join this' group ere next fall rolls around. Rose Poly and St. Josephas were the new co-champions of the Indiana Conference, succeeding Butler and Manchester as the kingpins of the circuit. It was the Hrst time qsince 1934 that Butler had finished out of first place. Although undefeated in conference play during the season, the Spar- tans of Manchester fell from contention because of two ties. The Rose Poly Engineers of Terre Haute were one of the few college teams in the nation who were unbeaten and untied in season play. Coach Magnabosco used the following lineup during most of the season: Bibler and Baldwin, ends, Noel and Cole, tackles, Friedt and Miller, guards, Langas and Stone, alternating at center, Kedrovsky or Meer, quarter- back, Donovan, Ferguson or Biedenweg, halfbacksg and Simpson, fullback. Miller was almost a unanimous choice of the state's sports writers as right guard on mythical all-Indiana Con- ference football selections. Ralph Bibler received honor- able mention or second team choice on several selections. All-state teams were chosen by sports writers of the As- sociated Press, United Press, International News Service, Indianapolis News, Indianapolis Star, and other publications. 101 Coach!

Central Normal Open Bowling Green fOhioj at DeKalb at Central fMich.Q State at Manchester Valparaiso Indiana State 102 BASKETBALL Gerald McCa Howard Stou BASKETBALL T WAS a cold winter, so far as the Ball State basketball team was concerned. Starting like a house afire, the Cardinals slumped miserably in mid-year and were never able to regain their stride. Ball State started the season by winning five in a row and then came the udepressionf, The Muncie collegians were able only to capture two more victories over the remainder of the season, making an all- games total of feven won and eleven lost. To begin with, Coach A. L. fPetej Phillips faced the task of building a team around but five letter-men and one of these was of little help until most of the season had been run. Clayton Smith, only front-line regular remain- ing from the 1940-1941 machine, suffered an injured ankle just a few days before the season opened and for weeks was unable to move about with his usual agility. The other letter-men were Howard Stout, Robert Reid, Gerald McCarty and Norman Ebrite, who had seen limited service the year before and thus were forced up front by circumstances. Ball State opened its basketball season on Monday, De- cember 8, the day after Pearl Harbor. To say the least, the season began under a cloud, inasmuch as several of the team members were border linen cases, so far as selective service was concerned, and it was feared the squad would be riddled by Uncle Samuel. However, all but one were able to finish the campaign, the exception being Joseph Roberston, Peru junior. The Cardinals traveled to Rich- mond for the opening game of the season against Earlham's Quakers and escaped with a 42-to-40 victory, It was a ding-dong battle all the way, with the score being tied six times and the lead changing hands on a dozen other occasions. Earlham led at the half 20 to 16, but Ball State rallied to capture the Hnal decision. Rex Anderson was high for Earlham with fifteen points. Ball State's next port-of-call was Charleston, Ill., on De- cember 12, where our boys nudged Eastern 1llinois Normal rty t 104 Clifford Joyce Gene Ewing by a 42-to-40 count, the same as against Earlham. Bob Reid's field goal in the last two seconds of the contest won the decision for the Cardinals. In the home opener on December 18, Ball State defeated Ohio Wesleyan's Battling Bishops, 47 to 43. Stout, 5 foot, 8 inch senior guard, was the sparkplug of the Cardinal machine, collecting eight field baskets and a brace of foul goals for eighteen points. Fitz and Geisler were high for Ohio Wesleyan, each snaring ten points. Ball State led at the half, 25 to 19, but were forced on the defensive in the closing minutes to protect their lead. Following the Christmas holidays, Ball State returned to the basketball wars on January 3, stopping at DeKalb, Ill., where they trounced Northern Illinois Teachers, 42 to 31. Stout and Evans held the balance of power for the Car- dinals, while Peppler was best for DeKalb. The Cardinals led at the intermission 22 to 15. Two nights later, the Cardinals stopped at Bloomington, Ill., where they nosed out Illinois Normal, 27 to 24, for their fifth straight victory. The Normalites grabbed a 13-to-10 half-time lead, but Ball State regained the of- fensive in the second half and were out in front, 23 to 17, with seven minutes left to play. The Redbirds rallied at this point to draw within one point, at 25 to 24. How- ever sophomore Jack Mendenhall's last-minute field basket saved the occasion for Ball State. Gerald McCarty and Mendenhall were outstanding for the Phillipsmen. Ball State's five-game winning streak came to an abrupt halt on January 8 at Ball Gymnasium, when DePauw's Tigers bounced them in an Indiana Conference contest, 38 to 30. The game was rough-and-tumble, which seemed to be to DePauw's liking. The Tigers came to the half with a one-point 21-to-20 lead, but Clayton Smith's field basket as the second stanza opened put the Cardinals in front. However, Etchinson retaliated for the Old Gold, and DePauw was again off to the races. The inability of the Ball State defense to stop Etchinson and Jones, a pair of forwards, cost it the game. The Clayton Smith 105 William Peterson Robert Koontz Robert Skillen . if joseph Evans Charles Eger Norman Ebrite David Felix former tallied sixteen points, while the latter grabbed thirteen. Evans and Stout paced the Cardinal offensive. The Cardinals ran into a tartar at Indianapolis on Jan- uary 10, slumping before Indiana Central's Greyhounds, 68 to 32. It was the eighth straight victory for Central, who was headed for an undefeated season. The hrst half was hard fought, with the Greyhounds holding a three- point 23 to 20 advantage. Crowe, Nicoson, Howe and Linderman paced Central, while Evans and McCarty were high for Ball State. Manchester came to town on January 13 and spanked Ball State, 53 to 51, in a shameful exhibition of defenseless basketball. It was Dad's Day on the local campus and a near-capacity crowd witnessed the scorathon. The Spartans made life miserable for Ball State in the first half and led at the gun, 29 to 17. However, the Car- dinals made a determined comeback in the Hnal session and grabbed a 42--to-40 lead, but again Manchester forged to the front. The final 54 seconds was a nightmare, no fewer than three field baskets and two fouls being recorded. Howenstine, with 17 points, and Olinger, with 14, were outstanding for Manchester. Reid and Stout paced Ball State, collecting twelve and ten points respectively. Ball State hopped over to Kalamazoo, Michigan, on Jan- uary 17 for a date with Harold Gensichen and company of Western State. The Bronchos bucked to a 48-to-45 win as Mr. Gensichen led the way with ten field baskets and three free throws for 23 points. Stout, Mendenhall and McCarty paced the Cardinals in scoring. Ball State led at the half 29 to 25. Indiana State's perfect record in basketball passed by the boards on January 22 at Ball Gymnasium, as the Cardinals jolted the dope bucket to the tune of 47 to 44. The Syca- mores had breezed into town sporting a perfect record but were no match for Coach Phillips' proteges. The Terre Haute clan grabbed an early 8-to-0 lead, but Ball State came roaring back and forged into a half-time advantage of 27 to 24. Indiana State rallied to again take the advantage, but Jack Mendenhall's foul tied the count 106 Jack Mendenhall Joseph Robertson Robert Reid Lee Bushong at 36-all, and Cliff Joyce's charity toss put the Cards in front, 37 to 36, with nine minutes left to play. Ball State managed to stay in front of Indiana State from that point on, although the Sycamores were on the upbeat again at the final gun. Joyce was the only reserve used by Coach Phillips in the gruelling battle. McCarty, with four field baskets and six free throws, paced the Cardinals with Reid and Mendenhall grabbing second- place honors with nine points apiece. Harold Johnson, 6 foot-6 inch Sycamore pivot man, paced his team with twelve markers. A courageous Ball State basketball team lost a heart- breaking 38-to-36 overtime decision to Butler on Saturday night, January 24, at Butler Field House. The Cardinals visioned a victory over the haughty Bulldogs as they headed into the linal seconds of regulation time on the long end of a 34 to 32 lead., However, with nine seconds to go, co-Captain Elwood Norris hit a one-hander from the side to tiei the score. Harold Miller scored for Butler in the overtime to give the Bulldogs a two-point lead, but Clayton Smith re- taliated for Ball State to knot the count at 36-all. Charity tosses by James Deputy, Butler guard, who sparked the last-half rally, and Glenn Miller, decided the issue. The Cardinals played their hearts out in an effort to smash the Butler domination, and led at the half 19 to 14. Gerald McCarty and John Jeffers, the latter a sophomore, were lost to Ball State in the closing minutes via the per- sonal foul route. This proved to be a severe blow to Mun- cie morale as both had paced the Red and Wfhite in scoring. Ball State returned home on January 31 to crush Frank- lin College, 60 to 34. The Cards were leading at the inter- mission, 30 to 10. McCarty, with six field baskets and the same number of foul throws, and Mendenhall, who scored seven from the gardens and a duo of charity tosses, were best for Ball State. Footsie Hendrix paced the Grizzlies with 'ten points. Manchester scored victory No 2 over the Cardinals on February 4, with the Spartans winning a 39-to-35 decision 107 www 're at Manchester. Manchester grabbed a 24 to 19 half-time lead, but Ball State rallied to tie the count at 33-all in the second half. However, the Spartans scored six points to again sail out in front. A1 Howenstine was high for the winners with Reid and Jeffers pacing the Muncie team. Illinois Normal got even with Ba11 State for a defeat handed it earlier in the year by smothering the Cardinals, 63 to 48, in a game played February 7, at Ball Gymnasium. The Normalites used a zone defense which rattled the Cardinals. Ball State trailed at the half, 34 to 28, and conditions generally worsened as the game progressed. Normal used ten men and nine entered the scoring column. Scott, with 16 points, and Kindred, with 15, were high for Illinois Normal, while Joyce and McCarty, with ten markers apiece, were scoring leaders for Ball State. During the evening upi' series, Ball State traveled to Franklin College on February 10, and was blitzed, 52 to 50, in an overtime. The Cardinals grabbed a 10-to-0 lead at the outset but the Grizzlies began to move and tied the score at the half, 19-all. With Franklin leading, 45 to 43, with twenty seconds left, Howard Stout drove under to tie the score. In the overtime, a scoring spree developed, with Roy Tillotson's gang having a little the better of it. Leerkamp and Makin were high for Franklin, with Men- denhall and Stout pacing the Cardinals. Indiana Central and Ball State dueled at Ball Gymnasium on Saturday night, February 14, with the Greyhounds again proving too fleet of foot, winning a 42 to 33 de- cision. It was a gruelling battle with both teams fighting tooth and nail for the decision. The Greyhounds led at the intermission 29 to 17, but Ball State pulled within four points at 35 to 31 with five minutes left. However, Central again turned on the steam to pull away. McCarty and George Crowe staged a personal duel which had the fans gasping all night. The players scored eight points each, Smith of Ball State like- wise tallied eight points, with Bloomingdale of Central leading the point-getting parade with ten rallies. 108 Wayne Simpson Raymond Munger John Jeffers Willianu Peden COACH PHILLIPS Ball State's home season closed on Saturday, February 21, with W'estern QMichiganj State as the opposition. Buck Readis powerhouse again proved too much for the Car- dinals, and the Bronchos walked off with a 69-to-50 de- cision. Again it was Harold Gensichen who staged a one-man show. Although leaving the game via the per- sonal foul route early in the last half, Gensichen notched eight Held baskets and three fouls for nineteen points. Slaughter was next in line for Western State honors with fourteen tallies. McCarty with fourteen points and Jeffers with eleven were high for the Cardinals. The Bronehs led at the half 29 to 28. The end of the trail was reached on February 24 when the Cardinals traveled to Terre Haute and dropped a 38- to-30 decision to Indiana State. The Sycamores led at the half 21 to 17. The outcome was in doubt until the final minutes, when State managed to pull away. Stelow paced the Sycamores while Stout was high for Ball State. The Cardinals used a line-up through the season drawn from Gerald McCarty, a junior, Jack Mendenhall, sopho- more, and Smith, as forwards, Cliff Joyce, senior, john Jeffers and Wayne Simpson, sophomores, at center, Bob Reid and Joe Evans, sophomores, and Howard Stout, sen- ior, as guards. McCarty, Reid and Stout carried the of- fensive burden most of the way, receiving help at divers times from Evans, Mendenhall and Jeffers. Smith's in- jured ankle bothered him all season and handicapped his usual style of play. Other members of the basketball squad were l.,ee Bush- ong, Norman Ebrite, Charles Eger, Dave Felix, Robert Koontz, Ray Munger, Williani Peden, Willigini Peterson and Robert Skillen. Stout, the smallest member of the varsity team, received mention on several all-state selections. The former Muncie Central cage star became one of the stand-out performers on the. Cardinal basketball team, reaching his zenith after three years of competition. Ball State has the neuclcus of a LUCEKCF'll1.lH'.IYCI'.1I1C - :Y' ' , ' ff - First row: Williain Peden, Gene Ewing, David Felix, Williani Peterson, Robert Koontz, Robert Skillen, and Raymond Munger.

In McCarty, Mendenhall, Jefifers, Simpson and Evans, Coach Phillips may be able to fashion a strong combination which would be greatly feared throughout Hoosierdom. However, it is probable that several will be missing when the roll is called. Also the probable supension of the freshman rule in varsity athletics and the influx of a strong sophomore crop may lighten the head- manls burden. So far as the Indiana Conference was concerned, Indiana Central and Evansville College tied for the championship. The Greyhounds were unbeaten in the all games de- partment and had by far the best college team in the mid- west, if not the entire nation. Butler's decline from con- ference domination, which had its inception in football 2 continued into the basketball season with Wabash Uputting the fingeri' on Tony I-Iinkleis Bulldogs. Although Ball State finished well down the conference ladder, there were two outstanding features of an other- wise drab season. The Cardinals spanked Indiana State, always a welcome procedure so far as Muncie is concerned. It was a real defeat for the Sycamores, a happening which kept Glen Curtis' gang from sharing in the conference championship. The second feature was Ball State's last-ditch loss to Butler on the Bulldog's home floor. There are many who will argue that the Cardinals should have won that one, but regardless of sentiment, Coach Phillips, gang won a moral victory at Butler Field I-Iouse. One of these days, Ball State will catch up with Butler and most of us expect to be around when it happens. BASEBALL Howard Stout Paul Elliott Laverne Hartley Shirley Wasson Clyde Hays Fred Burt Sherman Conn I Gene Scull BASEBALL ENV VETERANS were around to encourage Coach Paul B. Williams this spring when the baseball season got under Way at Ball State. Only two lettermen reported, despite the fact that graduation claimed bud four veterans from the 1941 squad. Enlistments into the armed forces, both voluntary and enforced, and outside employment resulted in several others being among those missing when the roll was called. When Coach Williams began to take stock after the initial baseball call, he found that Laverne Hartley, East Gary senior, was the only pitching Veteran available. Howard Stout, veteran second baseman, and Marshall SpudU Campbell were other members of last season's diamonders on hand. The outfield was the hardest hit. Nary a mem- ber of last year's outer brigade returned this season. 112 Before the season opened on April 18, Coach Williams had decided upon the following lineup: Robert Koontz, a sophomore, at first, Stout at second, Waldo Sauter, junior, at short, and Warren Jones, third base. In the outfield, reading from right to left, there was Francis Carpenter, Paul Elliott and Johnnie Cooper, all newcomers. The pitch- ing burden was carried by Hartley, with the catching under the usupervisionn of Campbell and Shirley Buck Wasson, Indianapolis sophomore. Later in the campaign, Wasson was shifted to center field in place of Elliott on days when the capital city boy was not Working back of the plate. In addition to I-Iartley, the Cardinals carried two untried sophomore moundsmen in Wilfred QBillj Scull of Eaton and Ray Munger of Shelbyville, both righthanders. 1 1 l l George Robb Peter Metz Robert Skillen Raymond Munger Robert Koontz Warren Jones Francis Carpenter John Cooper Marshall Campbell Dale Kellam 113 Other members of the Ball State team were Fred Burt, Sherman Conn, Peter Metz, George Robb, Bobl Skillen, John Jeffers and Clyde Hays. Opening the season at home on April 18 against Earlharn, the Car- dinals smashed out a 7-to-3 victory behind the five-hit pitching of Hartley. Three days later the East Gary senior again toed the rubber and hurled a 14-to-2 win from Franklin in a game prolonged by messy fielding by both teams. Bill Scull relieved Hartley in the last inning after is was determined that the Grizzlies were too far behind to stir up a ruckus. Franklin was able to get but three hits off the Cardinal chuckers. Warren Jones homered in the fifth with two mates aboard. Traveling to Miami, Ball State dropped its first game of the season, an 11-to-6 decision to the Redskins. Bill Scull started for the Car- dinals and Miami batsmen found his offerings to their liking. The Cardinals collected ten hits to nine for Miami. Howard Stout hit a home run in the ninth with two on. Back home on Saturday, April 26, Ball State dropped a 6-to-1 contest to DePauw behind the three-hit pitching of Lavidge, Tiger righthander. The Cardinals took a 1-to-O lead in the first inning, but three-run outbursts in both the iifth and eighth stanzas settled the issue. Hartley went all the way for Ball State and was nicked for eight hits, including a circuit clout by Reagan in the fifth with the bases empty. 114 Indiana State came to Ball, State on Tuesday, May 5, and our boys rallied to win the game, 8 to 7. Bill Scull started on the hill for the Cardinals and was batted out in the first, being replaced by Ray Munger, who hurled until the ninth. The Sycamores barged into a 5-to-0 lead, but Ball State made a determined comeback, scoring a pair of runsl in the fourth, one in the fifth, three more in che sixth and two in the eighth. Waldo Sauter, who led the Cardinal hitting parade with three hits in five trips, homered in the fifth. Hartley came to the mound in the ninth inning and struck out the side. In a return game with Earlham on May 10, Ball State had to come from away behind in the ninth inning to snatch victory from apparent defeat. Going into the final stanza trailing 5 to 4, the Cardinals tallied six runs before the third out was accomplished and won the contest, 10 to 5. A triple by Stout with the bases crammed, a doub- le by Sauter to tally Stout and Carpentefs two-base hit with a mate aboard sparked the revival. Sauter also hit a home run for Ball State during the afternoon. Butler tasted Ball State vengeance in its visitation at the local plant on May 13. Going into the eighth inning trailing by a 5-to-2 count, the Cardinals rallied for five runs, featured by Sauter's homer over the right field wall with two on. An error by Rabbit Fisher, Bull- dog third baseman, started all of the trouble and led to the hasty exit of Glenn Miller, Butler righthander. Hartley went all the way for Ball State, although nicked for twelve hits. Hardy, versatile Bulldog shortstop, homered in the third with none aboard. 115 ONS: xtsfdp-r.w-,.w,s'. ,. c A First row: George Robb, Warren jones, Waldo Sauter, Paul Elliott, Sherman Conn, Howard Stout, Shirley Wasson, Fred Burt, and Coach Williams. Second row: Robert Koontz, Dale Kellam, Laverne Hartley, Raymond Munger, john Cooper, Francis Carpenter, Peter Metz, Robert Skillen, and Gene Scull. On Saturday, May 2, the Cardinals traveled to Greencastle for a return game with DePauw and dropped a 2-to-O thriller to the Meth- odists. Again Lavidge and Hartley hooked up in a hurling duel with Ball State collecting five hits over the nine-inning route and DePauw seven. The Tigers scored in the fourth and fifth innings While Ball State blew scoring chances in both the fifth and sixth. As this was put to bedf' Ball State still had games with Butler, Central Normal, Miami and Indiana State. Two games with Hanover were washed off the books and Western CMichiganj State was not scheduled this spring. Prospects for next year appear to be good, but because of the international situation long-range predictions are out of order. With the exception of Stout, the entire infield and out- field should be back, together with both catchers and two moundsmen. Add to this imposing list the reserves and a good crop of freshmen. Probably another Indiana Conference pennant winner, Uncle Sam per- mitting. 116 TRACK K E First row: Norman Ebrite, Harold Dick, Richard Donovan, William Cannon, and James Hughes. Second row: Newt Meer, Robert Shuck, William Welke, Norman Eilar, Lawrence Smith, and Jack Niksch. Third row: Coach Magnabosco, Earl Arnold, Paul Everitt, Paul Samuels, Lee Bushong, John McSparin, Kenneth Cole, and Charles Eger. TRACK OSERS ONLY TO DEPAUW during the regular season, Ball State's Cardinals confounded the critics by nabbing second place in the Little State Track and Field Meet, held Saturday, May 16, at Greencastle, As usual, Butler's Bulldogs won first place in the event, their sixth consecutive crown and the twelfth in the meet's 21-year history. 118 Butler scored 67 points to win the Little State, While Ball State garnered 29 points. DePauw was third with 23, with other schools finishing in the following order: Rose Poly, 152g Earlham, IOM, Indiana State, 8, Taylor, 6g St. Joseph's, 4, and Wabash, 2. Franklin and Hanover did not score. In the Little State, Norman Ebrite, a junior, grabbed a first in the broad jump, with Kenneth fKingj Cole, Attica senior, leading the parade in both the shotput and discus. Cardinal luminaries who finished in contending positions were Earl Dopey Arnold, sensational sophomore, who was second in the pole vault. The mile relay team of Bushong, Hughes, Samuels and Sauter finished second to Butler in that event. During the regular campaign John Magnabosco's thinly-clads Won dual meets with Wabash and Indiana State and triangular affairs with Indiana Central and Taylor and Rose Poly and Taylor. 119 Coach Magnabosco inherited a strong team from last year's track squad which finished third in the Little State. However, adequate replacements had to be found for such luminaries as Dick Stealy, Jim Phend, Ray Ashley, Bill Clason, Ralph Bibler, John Snowbarger and Glen Oren. Dick Riser a quarter-miler, joined the air corps and several others were unable to be of much use to the squad because of jobs in defense industry. By the time the Little State rolled around, the Cardinal powers that be announced the following entries: 100-yard dash, Earl Arnold of Goshen, 220-yard dash, Arnold and Sauter, fArnold was third in the eventj, 440-yard dash, Arnold and Hughes of Huntington, 800-yard run, no entriesg mile run, no entriesg 2-mile run, Norman Eilar and Bill Welkeg 120-yard high hurdles, Samuels and Bushongg 220-yard low hurdles, Bushong and Sauter, shotput, Cole, Niksch and 120 Larry Smith, QCole won first placejg pole vault, Arnold and Eger, fthe former placing second and the latter thirdjg discus, Cole and McSparin, QCole finishing first and McSparin, thirdjg high jump, Ebrite and Arnoldg javelin throw, Bushong and Newt Meer, CBushong grabbing the third spotjg broad jump, Ebrite, Donovan and Eger, CEbrite winning the first positionj. 121 Walter Shreve, Norman Eilar, Paul Everitt, Phillip Bruch, John Cooper, Vfilliam Welke, and Harold Dick CROSS COUNTRY OI-IN LEWELLEN'S cross country squad enjoyed a better-than-average season, winning six meets and losing three. The Cardinal harriers defeated Manchester ftwicej, DePauw, Taylor, Wabash and Indiana State, placed second in a triangular meet with Indiana Central and Taylor and lost to Earlham and Miami. Three men will be lost by graduation, namely William Vfelke, Norman Eilar and Harold Dick. Sophomores who promise to give Ball State a strong squad next fall are Paul Everett, Phil Bruch, John Cooper, Edwin Plank and Walter Shreve. 122 DTI-IER SPCDRTS Earl Sample, A. C. Bernstein, Willian1 Peterson, Melvin Gilpen, and Loren Carmichael. TENNIS ALL STATES Cardinal tennis team had its best season in many a moon this year, winning nine out of eleven matches and nailing the Indiana Conference gonfalon to the masthead. Only Indiana University and Purdue were able to take the measure of Coach A. L. Phillips' racquet-swingers, while victories were turned in over Earlham ftwicej, Butler Ctwicej, Manchester Qtwicej, Indiana State, Rose Poly and DePauw. The feature matclf of the year was played with DePauw, who, like Ball State, was undefeated. The teams clashed on the local courts on May 7, and the Cardinals eked out a 4-to-3 decision. Our boys won two decisions from Butler, 5 to 2, and 6 to 1, the latter contest coming on Friday, May 15, to close the season. Three lettermen answered Coach Phillips' call for tennis volunteers this spring, namely Loren Carmichael, William Peterson and Melvin Gilpen, all of Muncie. A. C. Bernstein of Muncie, only senior on the squad, Earl Sample, Ray Kellam and Max Hunt, sophomores, also reported. Throughout the campaign the singles lineup consisted of Peterson, Carmichael, Bernstein, Gilpen and Sample, while the doubles teams were com- posed of Peterson and Carmichael, and Bernstein and Gilpen. In the state meet, Sample and Kellam were paired for the third doubles team. 124 Hn, M - V H , LITEA K ' 5 ,izF'?,,.i- iv .

The Cardinals lost seven other matches during the year, but with a little luck Coach John Lewellen predicts that the Muncie col- legians will step out among 'em next winter. Coach Lewellen used a lineup composed of Don Alexander, Bob Lockwood, Norman Talbert, Nor- man Weaver, Waldo Sauter, Franklin Fitch, Charles Brush, Homer Carl and Louie Benedict. Most of this group were underclassmeng and with a strong freshman squad moving up, prospects are bright for next season. The Cardinal athletic boqsses did not pick easy spots for the boys, scheduling such op- ponents as Wittenberg, Bowling Green, Ohio, De- Pauw, Indiana University and Earlham. 12 Ogle Cope Don Alexander Robert Lockwood Franklin Fitch XValdo Saucer Norman Xvcavcr Humcr C..1rl Clmrlcs liruslm N.

However, the in- tramural title was strongly contested, a post-season game being necessary to decide the issue. The Pole- cats and Triangles closed the season with seven vic- tories as against two defeats. In the play-off, the Triangles won by a 44-to-32 score. Members of the winning quintet were Martin and Hirons, forwardsg Barrett and Linson, centers, and lobe and Hughes, guards.

Membership in Alpha Phi Gamma, national honorary journalistic fraternity, is the reward of Ball State students whose journalistic endeavors have shown merit and origi- nality. To gain admittance to the highest degree of Alpha Phi Gamma's secret councils, that of initia- tion, students must have served two terms in a major position on the staff of The Bull Stafe News, or three terms in a minor position. The Ball State News, which is the most frequent stepping stone to fraternity membership, has received the all-American rating, highest honor of the Asso- ciated Collegiate Press, which is composed of five hundred and fifty colleges and junior colleges in the United States.

In the fall the fraternity held its annual home- coming dinner, at which Hrst-year Latin teachers related some of their experiences, amusing and other- wise. Another social activity was the Christmas party, carrying out so far as possible a Roman theme.

This organization is composed of art students who have made outstanding achievements, have dis- tinguished themselves in their creative work, and have taken an active part in art activities outside the regular class work. The club this year joined with the Kallista Art Club in helping to send one of its mem- bers to the Western Arts Association in Kansas City, Missouri. Because of the necessary cancellation of Ball State's annual art conference, in which Tau Epsilon is active, the club voted to compile a bulletin, to take the place of the usual con- ference, which is to be sent to those who would have attended. An important part of the bul- letin was to consist of suggestions for inex- pensive materials to be used in place of the many shortages of art supplies. One of the high lights of the year was the Held trip taken to Indianapolis to see Maurice Evans and Judith Anderson in Macbeth. Spon- sors of the organization are Susan M. Trane, Lucia Mysch, Clementine Eich, and Francis Brown. Officers of the past year were: Betty Bayfield, presidentg Eva Penn, vice-presidentg Edna Miller, secretary, Eleanor McFarland, treasurer.

The guest list included the members of the Ball State and Burris faculty and their wives. Lucina Hall residents look forward to the faculty tea with expectation, as it is most desirable to meet one's instructors other than in the classroom. The pajama parties included a Hallowe'en party, Christmas party, and Valentine exchange. It has been the custom for several years for the girls to buy small gifts for children of various age groups and put them under the Christmas tree. The gifts are then taken to the Delaware County Children's Home. During the winter term teas are held every Thursday afternoon for the residents of Lucina Hall and their friends. A steaming cup of tea and a blazing fireplace are greatly appreciated after a wintry day of classes. Susan Kroft was in charge of the tea on Mo-ther's Day. It has been the custom for Lucina Hall to hold open house on Mother's Day. The Sweater Twirl was the main social event of the spring quarter. Marquita Littell was general chairman.

The United States Navy Department has approved Ball State Teachers College for training prospective naval oflicers under the new Class V-1 pro- gram, which may lead to Class V-5 or Class V-7. The college has been making a real contribution in the field of aviation and will continue classes in civil pilot's training, both primary and secondary. To meet changing conditions and demands of defense and industry, aca- demic departments are revising and enlarging their offerings, Since the education program is an essential part of the defense program, standards of education must be maintained.
