With little experience but much enthusiasm we started our task, realizing we could, at most, give to the reader only a hint of his many happy and profit- able hours at Butler, yet knowing that with the hint, he might, from his gallery of memories, draw a pic- ture complete. 1 v :r VPas j drawings by Thomas E.

A, 2 Pencil sketches of the future Butler Campus bij William Forsyth : Along the Towpath. At the Edge of Fair view. In olden times on Fairview ' s shore, Crowds of women, men and children Watched an Indian tribe of actors Play the play of Hiawatha. Here where fountains play and flowers Scent the air with sweet perfume. We ' ll watch our future Butler grow And her onward march resume. The first draft of the first conception of a greater Butler by one of th ' local Architects. The Campus — Past, Present, and Future The history and prophecy of Butler ' s Campus reads like a legend that may be set forth in a series of pictures. The first picture, dated 1855, shows an old-fashioned brick building set near the corner of what is now Fourteenth Street and College Avenue, — the campus of Northwestern Christian University. The streets were then sparsely-settled, quiet avenues; carriages instead of automobiles were the vehicles drawn up at the side of the road. Young men and women strolled about the campus, dressed in the quaint garb of ante- bellum days; but at heart very like the students of today. On this quiet little campus, with its one building, its meager equipment, its handful of students and faculty, the spirit of Butler College, which shall forever shape its destiny, had its beginning. By 1873 the College had outgrown its quarters. Expansion was im- perative. Conditions demanded a move to a community where there would be room to grow. But students, alumni and faculty had become greatly attached to the old campus. It was hard to break the ties whicli bound their college life to that of the community. After careful delib- eration, the town of Irvington, then a scattered village with few inhabit- ants, was chosen. Now comes a glimpse of the second picture. The chosen site was part of the farm of Charles B. Ross, father of Dr. David Ross, of In- dianapolis. Dr. Ross remembers the place as a wood-pasture, with un- broken country for some distance around, where he and his brothers drove the cows every morning. Several years later we see a different picture. The pasture has been converted into a full-fledged college campus, with four brick buildings, and an athletic field; for Butler established herself quickly in her new home. With improved conditions, modern buildings and equipment, the College found room to grow and take on more activities. Regret at leaving the old home was forgotten in the benefits and opportunities of the new. A community interest grew up around the school; the life of Irvington became centered in that of Butler. For the spirit of Butler College still lived, and seemed to grow with the campus. Gradually the picture changes with the progress of the College until it presents to us the one we know best — the living scene of today. Additional buildings have been erected, but they cannot accommodate the one thousand students enrolled for the present year. The year 1922-23 seems marked for an important one in Butler ' s aestiny. Not only has it brought with it well-earned athletic prestige, but growth in numbers and spirit as well. The culmination of years of this spirit has heralded for Butler the dawn of a new day. For history repeats itself, and Butler finds herself now in the same position she was back in 1873. The College has outgrown its quarters. Expansion is imperative; conditions demand a move to a community where there is room to grow. Students, alumni and faculty have become greatly at- tached to the old campus. It is hard to break the ties which bind their college life to that of the community. But the men at the helm are men of wisdom and foresight; they see beyond the narrow bounds of the present campus, into the wider horizon of the new; they have the faith end courage of vision. So after careful deliberation they have chosen Fairview Park as Butler ' s future home. And now comes the final picture. A campus extending over 246 o.cres of land; a campus of wondrous natural beauty, with well-equipped modern buildings; a magnificent stadium; bordering on a lake, con- structed in the river bottoms; approached by a boulevard built through from Meridian Street; surrounded by a community whose life is knit up with that of Butler; a place where Butler may live and grow and make the most of every opportunity; a campus truly fitted to be the permanent home of a great institution. This is the vision of those men who, like Ovid Butler, have the real welfare of Butler College at heart; the dream of an ampler home of learning at Indianapolis, soon to be realized: and the reality will last as long as ' time and the spirit of Butler College shall endure. Meredith Nicholson Butler By Meredith Nicholson. It is a pleasure to be permitted to salute the men and women of Butler, young and old, far and near, at an hour when the Col- lege prepares to meet a new opportunity to serve the world. These are times of great perplexity in the affairs of mankind, and we of America have increasingly a duty to cling fast to all that makes for security and enlightenment. It has been my good fortune to enjoy the acguaintance and profit by the friendship of many of the sons and daughters of Butler College. We have had, in Indiana, no finer body of citizens. Butler stands for some- thing; Butler College is an inalienable part of the history of Indiana. The spirit of Butler has always been that of things noble and elevated that make toward perfection. It is not the size or the age of a college that counts; it is the aspiration and the vision of those who are taught to think straight and keep their eyes on the stars that distinguish the service rendered by an institution that undertakes to open the book of life to youth. The movement for a New Butler can not obscure for those of us who have passed the middle distance what the old meant to Indianapolis and Indiana. Written into the first charter of the institution were the ideals of Christianity, broadly and inspiringly interpreted. Nor may these be lost in the transfer to a new site, for they are of the things that are imperishable. And love of American ideals is not less an element of the Butler spirit. The Butler men who died in the greatest of wars are a pledge to the future of a continuity of endeavor in the New Butler of cdl that made the glory of the old. To make sweetness and light, mercy, justice and peace prevail is the great business before America. And nothing is more reassuring in a survey of the future than the fine determination of Butler to renew her strength and broaden the scope of her labors to the end that this pretty good old world may become a better place for the children of men. Old College Days By Abe Martin Ole College Days, sighed Tell Binkley th ' oilier day when he heard Butler College wuz goin V he loeated at Fairview Park, eventually. It must be great t ' look bach- on a happy college career, I ' recall ole chums, an ' ole football games, an ' ole bas- ketball victories , an ' early romances, an ' things. It certainly beats lookin ' back on eight or nine years o ' idleness, or maybe drivin a delivery wagon, or clerkin ' fer -$8.00 a week, or wastin ' time an ' energy on some commonplace employment thai would ferev- er keep one in th ' obscure walks of life, even if he became an expert at it. I didn go V no college, but ther hain ' t been a day in th ' last three decades that I couldn have used a college education f good advantage if I ' d had one. I wuz a good paper-hanger when I wuz a boy, an ' might o ' gone t ' college easily on my earmn ' s, but 1 preferred clothes, an ' th ' wild night life o ' Bloom Center. O ' course 1 look pretty good, an ' have a little money laid aside, but I didn ' realize il ' till I had sidewhiskers an ' wuz established in th ' tornado insurance business. Ther used f be a chap named Chester Berry that run in our crowd. He wuz a fine lookin ' athletic non-producer, an ' played th ' picolo in th ' band an ' had t ' chew t ' backer V keep his lips moist. One day his rich uncle from Calif orny dropped in on him an ' wanted t ' take him off his mother ' s hands an ' put him in a Californy College. But, no sir-ree— not fer Chester! He preferred t ' stay wher he wuz, an ' play in th band. That ' s a quarter of a century ago. th ' other day 1 picked up th ' Bloom Center Argus an read, Mr. Chester Berry, o th ' Elite Bowhn Alleys, wuz presented with a genuine onyx scarf pin fer loyal service as checker, coverin ' a period o ' twenty years. William Herschell, of Long Boy fame, read this poem, The Invaders, at the banquet given by the Indianapolis Rotary Club at the Claypool Hotel, November 28, for the Butler football squad. ill Herschell The Invaders It ain ' t no special privilege to be a guy no more, De girls in coppin ' all de games us fellers had before. Dey ' re not contented now with dolls an ' other female toys, But got to jim around an ' git de pastimes of de boys. Fer instance, look cd baseball — dey ' ve burgled it, by jing; Dey ' re playin ' golf — dot ' s shinny — and every other thing. Dey ' ve got de roller-skatin ' craze, an ' wearin britches, too, Aw, huly gosh, dere ' s nothin ' left fer reg ' lar guys to do. But, — oh, somebody hold me! — th ' worst of all has came — Dey ' re gittin wise to football an ' coppin ' out de game. Today, out on de commons, a lot of Stelles an ' Myrts Wuz playin ' football wit ' deirselves — she-quarterbacks in skirts. My heart sunk down within me as I lamped dat sorry sight, A sad voice deep inside me said: Aw, aw! Football goodnight! Dem females raced across de field like leapin ' tongues of flame, An ' when it come to tacklin ' — say, dem Julias knew de game! 1 heard ' em givin ' signals, too, just like de reg ' lar guys, Say I: If Pat Page sees em, dot ' s where dat guinea dies! Dey talked uv kicks an ' passes, uv penalties an guards, Say, had it been a bargain sale dey ' d gained a thousand yards! Aw, well, no use to roar, I guess; dey ' re in de game to stay — Dey ' ll soon be makin ' all de rules an learning us to play. An ' I suppose it ' s just as well to not kick up a muss — Fer when dey ' re kickin ' footballs — well dey ' re layin ' off of us! . $$£§ J OWED TO BEAUTY Upon a day in autumn as I stood in Butler ' s hall I mused upon odd words I heard that would a contest call. At first I thought them baffling, and my scorning turned to ire; But soon my heart within me rose from churlishness and mire. The spirit of my musing changed, so sweet was one maid ' s smile, I fain would live a thousand years to bask in it the while. But such splendor as was her ' s I found was not for mortal man, It was a vision for the gods though built on human plan. To worship her was justice, and to give to her the crown, — this maid fc very simple ri. of fair renown ' We rejoiced in finding virtue and art no wealth could buy And the pledges of high heaven left no reason to ask, Why ? ftm i„ l r ne ' m §M n ,0 $er m • IllPviil I ADMINISTRATION, ' fl i ii iiiii iHiii i i i ii i im iiii i i n i i i imii ii iii ii iiiiiii i ii ii iiii i ii i i i iii ii ii i i i ii iiiiii iiMM i i i n iiiii in i iiii ii iihUiiiinh.i ii iii i m r Board of Directors The picture above shows the Board of Directors of Butler College as in session at the Union Trust Company, Indianapolis, on the day that the momentous decision was made to move the College to Fairview Park.

Thirty-four The Faculty As vc sit down to classify the faculty, it is fortunate for historic accuracy that the massacre of final exams is well behind us. The suf- fering which ensued is almost forgotten and we forgive. Thus in turn we throb with pride and cower in mortal funk as we regard these pre- ceptors. The professors, after all. (in our own language which they may not understand) are pretty good scouts, but you have to know them and occasionally appear in their class rooms. In this diversified and cosmopolitan group one common bond ol sympathy, the desire to be of service, to lay well the foundations ot fu- ture citizenship, has welded them into a unified whole. There are some distinguished names within our little group, names of those who stain high at home and abroad in the knowledge of their subjects. Better stdl there are some of those rare individuals who, besides being instructors, are the advisors and friends of their students. It is on these that we would place the crown. _ But after all, where can more self scanficmg men and women he found than those who. during four years, direct and influence our lives? Here is the list, omitting, in the interest of enforced brevitty, depart- ments and degrees: Robert Judson Alev, president; James William Putnam dean; Henry Lane Bruner, Jabez Hall, Elijah Newton Johnson, Catherine Merrill Graydon, Henry Mills Gelston, William (.harks Mono Elijah Jordan, ' Milton 1).

BROWN Endowment and Building Fund Campaign In order to provide adequately for increased attendance, the Butler College Board of Directors decided last vear to launch a campaign for $900,000 for additional Endowment and $600,000 for new buildings. The Board appointed a general Endowment Committee, consisting of William G. Irwin, chairman; Arthur V. BroWn, vice-chairman, and J. W. Atherton, executive secretary. Other members are Arthur B. Baxter, Fred C. Dickson, L. C. Huesmann, Emslev W. Johnson, the Bev. Allan B. Philputt, A. M. Rosenthal, President Robert J. Aley and Hilton U. Brown, president of the Board. Alumni and other committees have been appointed. Campaign headquarters have been established at the City Office, 1104-5 Fletcher Savings Trust Building. The Directors felt that the purchase of Fairview Park as the future site of Butler offered a great opportunity and entailed a great responsi- bility. They realize that it will now be possible and necessary to con- struct an educational plant that will be modern, convenient, harmonious in design and beautiful both in itself and in its setting. It is evident that the people of Indiana are expecting a rapid development on the part of Butler; the city of Indianapolis, students and alumni are enthusiasti- cally hopeful. Some substantial prospects encouraged the Board to undertake this large enterprise. The campaign was begun only recently with three substantial gifts totaling $550,000, or more than one-third of the quota, $1,500,000;— $50,000 from Arthur V. Brown, ' 85; $300,000 from the Bockefeller General Education Board, and $200,000 from William G. Irwin, ' 89, and his sister, Mrs. Z. T. Sweeney. The General Education Board ' s gift is conditioned on Alumni and friends of the College raising $600,000 for endowment purposes. The Endowment Committee feels that Alumni and friends will answer this challenge.

Little did the upperclassmen recognize the entering merit on that most significant date. Why, our class gave a Freshmen Prom — not for us to wait for Juniors with their social annual Hop. Our class won the Football struggle from the Sophomores, our opponents. Further, even, we had some Freshmen on the honor roll that year. Hard to beat that peppy class in the year of 1919! Sophomore days Vere just as full, full of fun and full of frolic, though we did lose former classmates for various and for sundry reasons. Without Skulls to sponsor us we staged the grandest flag pole fight ever seen in Butler environs. Then as Juniors we produced an edition de luxe of the Drift (Jun- iors edit this copy else we might add a lot about that annual). We did everything that self-respecting Juniors will and can do, and by this time we were so well known that we got to be the chairmen of com- mittees who call the meetings, forget to come and get blamed for it. Well that is all over now — behind us. We have grown from eighty- seven Juniors to a hundred Seniors. To let subordinates know our presence, the young ladies of the class donned those enviable balloon- blue sweaters, delicately bordered and striped with tan, while the men, ah yes, those men! strutted forth in pearl-grey (?) trousers, shades of corduroy and khaki! They soon became the campus landmarks and some did say the college directory was first recorded on these trousers. Be that as it may, this no mean class on Founder ' s Day, in solemn garb, with serious mien (albeit Jimmy marched in cpiick step) first appeared in roba scholorum. Not till then it dawned upon us that the end was drawing nigh. Little time is left now for us to enjoy our good old college. And now, gentle reader, peruse these pages, glance yet again on these faces — then marvel as we do now that the college expects to go right along without us! luirtv Wendell J.

Great minds run in the same channel, so the class of 1924 first became a conception in the hearts of 300 high school individuals. As all great bodies must have their humble origin, so we, the honorable Juniors, were once mere Freshmen, subjected to such humiliating adornment as green :aps and ruined pompadours. In March our opportunity came to shine socially. With the co-op- eration of the condescending Soph- omores — now our mighty Seniors — we promenaded in the Athen- e u in to the tune of Bright Eyes and $65 for the hall. As Sophomores we became bet- ter known on the campus, particu- larly those of us who demolished Freshmen in the flag-pole scrap. To prove further our right to proper respect in this College, we won the Frosh-Soph basketball game with a score quickly forgot- ten by Butler ' s Nursery. Now has come the Great Mo- ment. We are Juniors. As a fit- ting acknowldcgment of our soph- istication we have donned pearl- gray chapeaux, modestly banded in royal-blue. By our hats ye shall know us. At this point we deem it appropriate to tell you that we are the cause of this Drift. We have labored long and hard, and now at its publication we sincerely pray in the cause of our salvation that there will be more stars in our crown than there are shekels in our pocket. The time approaches when we will make our formal debut in cap and gown, before wte go out from our dreams and theories. But wi th our Drift on your library table and our record in your mind, you will say it with applause and flowers to the Class of Twenty- Four.

Our thoughts were turned into many channels and lanes lor further knowledge. Particularly to the Drama (Palacial), and to the quieter arts (Circleistic and Cubc-balistic) were we attracted. So active were we indeed that few of ns were able to attend the annual Freshmen-Sophomore scrap and game this year. We understand that many of the Freshmen were pres- ent, hut then that Green horde swarmed all occasions, even, we notice, were they congregated to have their picture taken. In truth, however, on these occasions alone (there being no others requiring the appearance of the class en masse, class meeting being no exception) were we as a class defunct. We contributed nobly lo the personnel of the athletic teams. Representing the Sophomores on the heroic frozen heath during the recent football season were Hal Griggs, the boy with the golden toe and the platinum arm; Nig Woods, who brought tears to the eves of the fair ones whenever he was tackled; Dave Konold, bashful cn who fought like Miles Standish when on the field of action; Dick Strickland diminutive big man who made good over night; Kewpie Updegraf, whose father sent him to college with $1,000 under Pat Page and only got a quarter-back; Harry Duttenhaver, of whom we can boast was never half shot but suffered a casualty in the thigh; (den Dutten- haver, who won a letter for the first time and carried the title of official quarter-back on the third team (which was some distinction considering last year ' s team); and Merle Rotroff, the curly-headed brute who came through unscratched. While these men Vcrc subduing teams from Illinois to Rose Poly, other second year men and women were active in all such collegiate enterprises as The Collegian, Dramatic Club, Philokurian Society, French Nuts, Biology Ethics, Zoology Antics, Chemistry Rhymes and Mathematical Romances. About the end of the first semester when the Drift Editor took it into his head to find out who was the best-looking girl in school, the Sophomores chose Patia Carver as their candidate to compete with those of the other three classes in the contest. Every loyal Sophomore still contends that it was force of numbers that returned the Freshman candidate the victor. From out of chaos we came to College, Came for pleasure and for knowledge. For the knowledge simulated, Into Sophomores elevated. We, the Class of ' 2. ' ), pass from chaos into Juniors. From out of chaos to Seniors, Into cap and gown demeanors. Who for knowledge forsake the pleasure, Think the sheep-skin pays full measure. We, the Class of ' 2. ' ), pass from chaos back again.

In imitation of the college it swept all opposition before it in conquer- ing the Sophomores, by winning the scrap and the interclass football game. The first-year class displayed a mutual co-operation and de- termination that bodes ill lor those who might attempt to thwart it in future undertakings. The elections placed the responsibility lor the welfare of llu men through their first difficult year upon the shoulders of Nipper, who was (lie unanimous choice for president. His officers were Justine Halliday, vice-president; Albert Knox, tre and Sarah Downs, secretary. The campaign brought forth some po- litical brilliance, a great disregard of parliamentary law, seme slight trouble with the ballot boxes, and a wonderful originality that proved to be the deciding factor in the nominations. The day of the class scrap dawned cold and cloudy and though the wearers of the green were confident of victory, there was a nervous undertone among them over what the day might hold in store. The football game was contested through all of its three quarters, the game being called at the end of the third period in order to insure its con- clusion before dusk, when it would have been difficult for the officials to follow the original and complicated plays. The Freshmen old-ma- neuvered the Sophomores and smashing line-plunges, combined with a spectacular aerial attack, served to push over a touchdown in the first quarter. The Freshman goal was never in danger during the next two periods, bid the yearlings acquired three touchdowns that wen ' quickly called back as illegal by the Junior officials of the game. Mall-back Schultz starred for the Sophomores, while quarter-back Mills was the outstanding figure on the big Green team. The shivering scrap gladiators were herded at either end of tin field, while a representative crowd of feminine spectators waited im- patiently for the slaughter. A handful of Sophomores floated a pink pennant from the upright of the already battle-scared goal-posts, and gathered gallantly in a defensive position, while a hopeless but deter- mined atmosphere settled over the gridiron. The horde of Freshmen was being extorted by Coach Pal Page to spill a little blood and to take home an extra shirt. The whistle blew and the Sophs were enveloped in a mass of whirling bodies. When the haze of gore and flying gar- ments had settled, the pink flag was still floating in the breeze. Twice the enraged attackers rolled over the desperate second-year men. and on the third and last attempt succeeded in literally tearing the Sophs from their posts, limb by limb. As the Freshman leadei of the scaling party, Al Knox ripped down the blood-spattered pennant and a weak cheer rose that was quickly silenced when il was discovered thai Hie green emblem of the- Freshmen was missing. A general declothing of the exhausted Sophomores followed and the recovered hut too late to place il on the poll ality the Sophomores claimed a victory.

The railroad track was dangerous from trains and Washington street was dusty. We who hoofed it had companionship, however, and did not object even after we had played ball in the afternoon. We nearly always walked one way every day. I recall some of the boys. (Does a college boy ever forget the days at college?) There were the Wallace boys, Charley Ballard, Hilton U. Brown, Wilbur Campbell, Miles Clifford, and others. On Friday nights we would walk in after the adjournment of the Literary Societies. To my father ' s homestead on Massachusetts avenue was about four miles. Others had farther to go. We always had fun on the way, mornings out or nights inbound. On Saturday and Sunday nights we called, (had dates to speak in modern terms) on the coeds. (We did not say coeds, however). There were no cars back to the city. Perforce we walked. Had it not been for the good time we had in our calls — the walks at 2 or 3 o ' clock in the morning would have been lonely. Swteet remembrances pre- vented lonliness. You moderns dash home in a motor car and have not time en-route to rehearse all the sweet things. The old way of doing things has some advantages, perhaps. Far be it from me, however, to advocate the old paths for you up-to-daters. Our old paths are now either asphalt pavements or are placarded Don ' t Trespass on the Bight of Way. Ball games were mentioned above. We played on Friday after- noons. Our contests were nearly all interclass, not intercollegiate. They were none the less exciting and even bitter. Friday nights the debates were held in the Pythonian and Mathesian Literary Societies. These contests were equally hard-fought. On our walks back to the city late at night, we fought these battles over again. The long walk in rain or snow or clear moonlight gave ample opportunity for argument and boisterous fun. Afoot and light hearted we took to the open road. Strong and content, we travel the open road. Allons! the road is before us. These - lines from old Walt Whitman express our custom and our thoughts with his usual charm and power. Whether many students walk far to college now or not, I do not know. This I do know, — we can never forget the zest, the fun and the bene- fit of our walks to the col- lege along dusty Washing- ton street or the gravel of the Pennsvlvania tracks. Xinety Mule-Car Days in Irvington (By Grace Julian Clarke) Just wlu-n the first [rvington car-line began operations I do oot recall, but on consultation with W. II. II. Shank, who knows more about early Irvington than anyone now living, I conclude that it was in the summer or fall of 1874. William II. English was president of the company that projected and built the line. He was succeeded by Tom L. Johnson, who afterwards became Mayor of Cleveland. Butler College removed to its present location in the fall oi 1875, and probably about 1878, the car-line was shifted so as to go past this institution, ' instead of going down Audubon, as at first, the cars went west on Bonna avenue to Hitter avenue, on Hitter avenue to I Diversity avenue, along University avenue to the present Butler avenue, crossed the C II D. tracks, through the Starr Addition, where a man named Childs had built a large organ factory and also a group of pretentious looking houses, in one of which President Everest ol Butler College, afterwards resided, through the pretty suburb of Stratford, and past beautiful patches of forest where the car-driver would sometimes slop, in case none of the passengers seemed to he in a hurry, and allowed the young College boys and girls to gather wild flowers. There were no conductors on those cars, the fares (it cost a dime to go to town then) being deposited in slots and conducted thence to the front window where, between two panes of glass, the driver could see exactly how many there were. Occasionally the driver would stop the car and announce that he was one fare short, whereupon everybody would look at everybody else, and presently the desired amount would be forth- coming. If not, the driver would again put his head in and remind the occupants of his requirements, stating thai unless liny were complied with he would not proceed. Whenever the car left the track we all got out. 1 he mules were hitched to the other end (both ends were alike) and after violent tugging, sometimes with the assistance of the strongest and most obliging pas- sengers, it was restored to its proper place. This usually happened in the muddiest parts of the road so that we reached the city with consider- able quantities of mud adhering to our shoes. Students who lived in town used to study their lessons on the car, for it took an hour to make the hip. Mule cars continued on their meandering course through the Starr Addition and Stratford, past the organ factory, the barn, the patches of woods, till the year 1890, when the right-of-way was obtained out East Washington street. After a while we abandoned Hie mule-cars U r the steam dummy which killed at least one passen- ger in a week, then came a storage battery, and fi- nally the present very sat- isfactory electric trolley-Mj Ninety-one Automobile Transportation (By Virginia Kingsbury) There was a time when nothing flapped in chapel but the blinds and the only war veterans we knew were those with gray whiskers. It was during this period that the automobile as a means of Butler transportation came into being. One September morning the Morgan girls ' car was seen parked on the drive; the wonder was that it appeared the next day and the next. Before, on a few rare occasions, indulgent gatherers had been known to loan their machines for a day, but it soon dawned upon us that this car was dedicated to the sole purpose of bringing its lucky owners, Mildred and Ilene, to College. Such luxury as this was almost unbelievable ! The friendships of the aforesaid knew no limit and the car no rest. It was never lonely, — for even when not upon the road it was occupied by those studying, or nearly studying, or perhaps only resting from their labors. To sink into its slippery cushioned seats meant perfect happi- ness. No doubt it was cruelly overworked! Though primarily designed for the comfort of five passengers, its capacity was easily doubled. Anyone invited to ride would literally jump at the chance and gaze down upon the walking multitude grinning like the traditional Cheshere cat. Its social activities were amazing, for it attended all the festivities possible for one car to attend and as a rushing asset it knew no rival. This hardy pioneer did not remain in solitary possession of the campus for long. The machine fever spread rapidly, even breaking out mildly among the professors. Other cars came — among the first Bobby Roberts Marion, — some for a day and others every day, till more and more we became accustomed to the sight, then expected it and soon demanded it, and the luxury became a necessity. Gradually parents were convinced that to send Johnny and Susy to Butler on the street-car would permanetly undermine their health. So the campus and streets leading thereto have become as all open-air garages and the starting of motors or the squeaking of brakes is no longer cause for comment. The brightly- painted roadster, the huge closed car or even the one guided by the chauffeur creates but little excitement. Anyone passing Butler dur- ing the week, especially on the afternoon of a big game, can readily understand the financial depression of the street-car company. Ninety-two J 1 1 c [QQBIiP u Aviation at Butler (By John Kautz) Wc have had the pedestrian period, the mule age, the electric method and the automobile transportation in going l college. I am to discuss the flying machine for the Fairview future. If I do not stick to facts it is because there aren ' t any. Careful research covering a period of more than twenty minutes lias brought to light the fact that in all the State there is no authentic record of regular aeroplane trips to and from classes. II was only a moment ago that the editor phoned me that I had just two days in which to prepare lliis article. 1 tried to choose the Fourth of July and Christmas as the two days, but was told not to get tunny, so I presume that a serious discussion of aviation at Butler is desired. I know a good deal about aeroplanes, having ridden in one once and seen several others, but 1 shall try not to be too technical for the lay mind to follow. My first trip aloft was with a Canadian flying officer on the British front . His ship was given to dropping long dis- tances very fast. After we had been up and down for three minutes, the pilot called hack that we couldn ' t stay up much longer because the motor was knocking. I felt sure it was my knees he heard knocking. However, we did get down alright, after which (his bird explained to mc that he had let the bus fall out from under us that way to tesl his nerve, as he had crashed a week or so before and hadn ' t flown since, lie had his nerve alright. Speaking of nerve brings me hack to where I should have started. and entails a discussion of the living that has been done over; around and more or less through (he athletic field during the football season. Of course I realize that not every college is so fortunate as to have regular attendance at its games by a flock of air-craft whose pilots will, when asked, assume the awful responsibility of dropping the football for the start of an important game or of entertaining the crowd with a stunt or two. But I do think that these ships should not try to associate so intimately with the people in the bleachers. On the other hand we don ' t want to discourage the aviators and when we move to Fairview we must lie sure to provide an adequate landing field as no douhl many of the sons and daughters of our alumni will within a few years wish to taxi back and forth to school from Kokomo or Connersville. As it is now. here in Irvington, if the athletic field is in use, our aviators would be forced either to slay up until the game was over or bed-down in the top of one of our statelv trees. This latter practise is, however, frowned upon bv f . the faculty and 1 beg ' - . leave to suggest to the registrar that in preparing his next Bulletin for pros- pective students he include a paragraph to the effect that students arriving in this manner will be admit- ted to the college only while waiting for the am- iidance to come. Ninety-three Butler Men In Politics Organization of a Butler Club at Washington, D. C, is now contemplated as a step in building up But- ler alumni clubs all over the country as well as in Indiana. The movement to form a Washington Club will be headed by Harry S. New, Butler al- umnus who is a former United States senator from Indiana and is now post- master-general. In the Work of starting this club Mr. New will be aided by Merrill Moores, national congressman from the seventh (Marion county) Indiana congressional dis- trict, and by Thomas B.

The membership of all these Butler Clubs may not at first be large, but the alumni associations will be characterized by the intense love of alma mater that alway results from college life, and certainly blazes forth among Butler alumni. Harry S. New was one of the first of noted Butler athletes and newspaper writers. He was an athletic hero of the ' eighties, when athletics were just as dear to the campus heart as they are today. Butler is fortunate in being one of the few western colleges which has had an alumnus as a cabinet member. Other Butlerites who have distinguished themselves in political office are the late Addison C. Harris, Martin A. Morrison, Wood Unger, Demarcus C. Brown, Dr. Henry Jameson, Bobert Bracken, Albert N.

NEW Ninety-four Our Alumni (By Katharine Morrill Oraydon) By their fruits ye shall know them. And to judge Butler College aright, one must understand the life and the spirit of her alumni. Out of the academic home have graduated six hundred and ten nun and five hundred and thirty-live women. Those nun and women have gone forth to strive for and ' to attain unto ideals such as the founders of the institution had in mind. They have converted into real living the lessons learned in the College ' halls, have plaeed in real action the qualities of mind and heart idealized in such friends of education as David Butler, Allen B. Benton, Catharine Merrill. William M. Thrasher and Otis A. Burgers. In nearly every State of the Union a Butler alumnus may he found doing his work quietly and efficiently, playing the part of the man or the woman at whatever task assigned. From seaboard to seaboard he struggles. His accomplishments do not come, in the main, with ease. The Butler graduate lives fully. He is intelligent and appreciative of fine things in literature and life. He gives as lie goes along, gives largely of his time and his strength. He is a part of the hist things ol his community. Not only throughout homeland, hut also over the lace of the globe are our alumni scattered: in the Land of the Rising Sun. in oriental China, in old Tibet, in India, in the islands of the Atlantic and the Pacific, in Malta, on the Belgian Congo, in South Africa, in Mexico, in South America. They touch the work of the world in all of its callings. In the law. the ministry, the teaching profession, do their activities most abound; although in ' diplomacy, in finance, in journalism, in medicine, in com- merce, in farming, in home-making, they hold honored positions. They help to make the ' laws of the State and the Nation. They manage great newspapers. They occupy many and important pulpits. They are nowhere more praiseworthy than in their own homes. Children and children ' s children of graduates are today attending the College. Where duty calls or danger, he never wanting there, has long been a motto of our alumni. In the three wars of her life-time, Butler College has been generously and conspicuously represented. From her halls went forth in the (id ' s one hundred and eighty-lour students, of whom eighteen did not return. In US enlisted eighteen, all of whom were mustered out. In 17 and 1 S her name was glorified on the fields of France and in home cantonment. Near eighl hundred of her sons wire in service during the World war. of which number sixteen gave their lives for country and for Cod.

Irwin at Columbus, Ind. Rising from the station of a struggling boy, who sold sugar-maple cakes and tanbark for a livelihood to that of one of the leading hankers of Indiana, Joseph I. Irwin knew personally the needs and handicaps of persons who labor each day. Throughout his life, therefore, hi ' contributed freely to Butler College and other enterprises that sought to better the moral and civic phase of life. William G. Irwin, son of Joseph I. Irwin, in addition to inheriting wealth in money from his father, also inherited a wealth of that civic pride that was the major part of his father ' s life. He also is a patron of the College and one of its most generous and loyal alumni. Not many years ago he made a tour of the various countries of the world and on his return, carpenters, teamsters and various workmen began tearing down buildings adjacent to the Irwin home. When their work was completed, instead of the old structures were beautiful sunken gardens which are the pride of Columbus and of Southern Indiana. Ideas conceived in every nation of the world arc represented in Ibis garden in a material way. The gardens are well-kept and are open to the public. Down the first flight of steps the visitor approaches a reproduction of an Egyptian well with many quaint carvings. Artistic walks, steps, and paths lead to the court at the summit of a high knoll on the east. A court of the bronze-green elephant at the north side of the courtyard is a favorite visiting place for sightseers.

The strain of the whole thing as far as our domestic life is con- cerned had never been exhausting because Butler and Illinois had never met before and in the big games I joined with Paul in hoping Illinois heat the whole world — Butler excepted.

The victory scored over the University of Illinois, 10-7, on October 14, the first defeat suffered by the Big Ten school from a non-conference team in twenty years. The standing of Butler second only to Notre Dame in the State championship race. The scoring of eight goals from placement by Hal Griggs. The great defensive play of the Butler line, especially in the Illinois game. The scoring against every opponent by Hal Griggs. The selection by Walter Eckersall of Hal Griggs for honorable mention on his all-Western mythical eleven. The selections by Indianapolis and State newspapers of Griggs, Middlesworth, Fuzz Hungate and Beichcl for all-State positions. The comeback of Johnny Ferree, captain of the 1916 eleven. The splendid physical condition of the players, a winning factor in several of the games. The generalship of Wally Middlesworth at quarterback. The aggressive play of Captain Harry Duttenhaver in the line, de- spite a wounded leg. The ability of Fuzz Hungate to break up plays and open holes for offensive drives. The showings of such freshman comers as Beichel, Cecil, Paul, Alley, Hensel, Harry Hungate, Nipper, N.ortham and others. And the many banquets at the close of the season given by various college and city organiza tions in honor of and in tribute to the success of the team and Coach H. O. Page. One Hundred and Four To practice faithfully day after day and then play in the games on Saturdays is hard enough, but to come out for hours every afternoon and he shoved and bruised and cut in hard scrimmages and then to sit on the bench and only watch the others fight the enemy on the gridiron before ten thousand admirers is infinitely harder. It ' s a man-sized job.

Fred Fellows, the genial Trainer of many years connection with Butler College, spent long hours last fall in rubbing the sore muscles of the players and in keeping the playing field groomed for the games. Working in co-opcralion with Justus Paid, Duniont Ranstead, Stud- ent Manager, had an important pari in the clerical work of the athletic department.

Irwin Field, September 23. RETCHEL CLEARS THE WAY To start the glorious Butler football season of 1922, a green, untried eleven took the field on September 23, to battle Wilmington College, nicknamed the Little Centre of Ohio because of its eight victories and no defeats scored the preceding year. The Ohioians had the confidence of a heavy, well-balanced, veteran team, and as they ran through the signals more than a few Blue and White rooters forecasted an over- whelming defeat for their team. Captain Harry Duttenhaver was out with a gun-shot wound in the leg, sustained after practice had commenced, while Cecil, Reichel, Hen- sel and Steele were playing their first college football. For the full sixty minutes of play the line fought back the rushes of the Wilmington backs, while the back field, composed of Middlesworth, Woods, Griggs, and Strickland, hammered the ball to easy positions from which Hal Golden  Toe Griggs booted two perfect placements, one in the first quarter from the thirty-yard line, and the second in the third quar- ter from the twenty-yard line. THE FIRST THREE POINTS Besides Griggs, Reichel, Middlesworth and Woods featured the Bulldogs play. Strickland, with his 135 pounds, made some nice dives through the Wilmington line. Lou Reichel at center, a Freshman from Manual, played sensational ball. Johnny Northam, Freshman from Sheridan high, showed fine possibilities in the backfield. A hard game had been won, 6-0. Butler looked eagerly to the fol- lowing contests. -t4: ■,i-:ic;i;s .marks it six % 41 HS13 fe One Hundred and Six a l mtmw BAPTISTS FIGHT HARD Butier, 14; Franklin, 0. Irwin Field, September 30. HAI, FAILS TO GO ACROSS The Franklin College football team came to Irwin Field, Septem- ber 30, supremely confident of victory. It was fresh from a two-weeks training camp, and eager to avenge the 28-0 defeat scored on Franklin by the Bulldogs the preceding season. During the last fourteen years of rivalry between the two schools on the gridiron, Butler had won eleven times to Franklin ' s three. It was quite evident to the 7,000 fans who were perched in or around the playing arena that it would take almost superhuman football for either team to win, so evenly were they matched. And it was almost superhuman football when f J ' vm S c r a p p y Strickland A JMk All snatched a thirty-yard for H ward pass worth late rom Middles- ill the third baptist: J period, and again when Hal Griggs dashed through the Baptists for forty yards and the second touchdown alter completing a long throw from Nig Woods. Exchanging punts, failing to complete forward passes, gaining oc- casionally on line rushes but being thrown for losses just as often, the two teams fought to no decision for the entire first half of the game. With the count 14-0 against them, the Baptists made one last gallant drive towards the Blue and White line in the final quarter, hut the attack fell short by eight yards and the second shutout victory for the 1922 season of the Blue and White was over. The enthusiastic Butler follow- ers were now looking to the Illinois game and to the other big scraps that Coach Page had carded for his players. FRANKLIN FAILS Tip MAKE DOWNS One Hundred and Seven Saturday by Saturday tougher and tougher teams were coming to lake a shot at the fast-stepping Butler Bulldogs, so on October 7, Chicago Y. M. C. A. College (The Association College) of Chicago, 111., took her turn. The game was in the nature of a rubber contest, each school having a victory and a defeat in the previous two years of competition. A soggy field and dripping skies greeted the players as they lined up to start the game. Half the stands were unoccupied, but those who did brave the weather were in high spirits. GRIGGS BOOTS FORTY-FIVE YARDS Two sensational plays by Hal Griggs proved the undoing of the hard-fight- ing Y outfit. For the third time in three games and under the most difficult conditions, Griggs scored a perfect placement from the forty-three yard line early in the opening pe- riod. In the third quarter, for the second feature, Griggs criss- crossed fifty-five yards for the first touchdown of the game, throwing off or side-arming a half-dozen tacklers in the course of his run. Bob Nipper, Freshman from Tech, scored a second touchdown in the same quarter for the remaining Butler points. With a total of 36 points scored in three games to the opponents ' none, the Blue and White gridders were looked upon as a worthy foe to play the University of Illinois at Urbana the fol- lowing week. Coach Page ind his men were deter- mined to give the Suckers ill they had, to win. NIPPER GOES OVER One Hundred and Eight Butler, 10; Illinois U., 7. Urbana, Illinois, October 14. i$ f xk ft Jf Til E FIRST THREE AGAINST THE II. I. INI The most important athletic achievement in as many years as most of us can remember, Butler ' s triumph over the University of Illinois at Urbana on October 14, 1922, in football, 10 to 7. stands ' as a glorious landmark in the onward progress of the school for a new standard of sports. The opening quarter was scoreless with Griggs barely missing a long field goal. Brilliant line plunges by Johnny Ferree, fullback, and a trick play in which Leslie figured, put the ball in position lor the opening score. This time Hal made good on a thirty-seven yard place- ment. A driving determined attack carried the hall to Butler ' s nine-yard- line as the third quarter ended. It was first down as the final period be- gan. Four times the heavy Illinois hacks crashed into the lighting Bull- dog line, and each time they were beaten back with hardly a gain. From ten yards behind his goal- posts, Griggs punted the tx ' m m || S PENETRATES THE ORANGE AND BLUE ball back to the twenty-five-yard line. Again the loosers rushed the ball towards the Blue and White uprights. Again the collegians made a valiant stand, but this time on their last down the Orange and Blue made the distance and a moment later kicked the goal. As the score stood: Illinois, 7; Butler, 3, the visitors bad made more than a creditable showing against the Conference team. But that was not enough tor the bluc-perseved players on the field. Time was almost up when Captain Hairy Duttenhaver snagged an Illini pass on the forty- three-yard line. A pass tailed. Another one, Griggs to Middlesworth, netted thiry-five yards. Mclllwain blocked a third. A minute or two remained when Woods tossed a fourth on the last down, and Griggs gathered it in and ran over the goal line lor victory. Griggs made it 10 on the try alter touchdown, and the game was over. Butler had accomplish- ed the impossible! What even the most ardent fol- lower had not dared hope lor! The future loomed more promising than ever. . ' M  m ' INNING r e=kf One Hundred and Nim QUAKERS FALL HARD Rutler, 57; Earlham, 0. Irwin Field, October 21. NORTHAM GAINS ABOUND THE EXD Homecoming Day, featured by the football game with Earlham, ancient and traditional rivals of the Rlue and White, brought back hundreds of alumni to welcome and see in action the team that had lately returned from its success at the University of Illinois encamp- ment. The older grades especially marveled at the progress Coach Page had made since his entrance at the head of Rutler athletics as they watched his proteges rout the Quakers, 57 to 0. Ferree, Woods and Nipper assumed the offense for the Bulldogs to start the game, the last named going over for the first goal. Woods was the second to score, getting the chance after a _ series of line-bucks that «0l - ■ $ £S , made consistent yardage i| J $§ 1. 1 through the Earlham line. % WOODS FINDS THE WAT Completing a twenty-one-yard forward pass, Blessing, substitute end, opened the second quarter with a touchdowln, followed later in the period by a second goal by Nipper. Harry Hungate and Johnny Northam, two freshmen comers, made Butler scores during the third period. A long pass, Vickers to Konold, and a line-smash by Ferree counted the final points collected by the Blue and White during the afternoon. Captain Duttenhaver in the line and Ferree in the backfield stood out for Butler. It was the fifth successive victory for the Pagemen, and the fourth whitewash win. Wabash was next up to bat — the same veteran, hard- hitting team that had con- quered the Blue and White in 1921, 14-0. The odds favored the Little Giants as the time for the battle approached. C v , ' UAKKRS SLOW One Hundred and Ten When Butler came home victorious over Illinois, not a lew persons said: Luck. Wait until Wabash hits you. All Butler had a whole- some respect for the Caveman, who had already won lour games, and who had not been scored on thus far during the season. Again it was football weather, and the 15,000 fans thai flooded Irwin field sensed somehow long before play started the glorious battle that they were about to witness. Both sides presented strong defenses as the game began, and there were frequent exchanges of punts. As the first period drew to a close, Hal Griggs made good an attempt for a placement from the fifty-yard- line. TINY KNEE TOOK IT As the second period op- ened, Fuzz Hungate, standing on his own two- yard-line, snagged a for- Jft Ward pass, and stopped a Little Giant ' s inarch for touchdown. A lo ng pass, started from behind the goal posts, Griggs to Middlesworth, was good for forty yards. A moment later Griggs had a second shot at the Scarlet goal posts, and scored a forty-five-yard placement. With the count 0-0 against it, Wabash came hack at the Blue and White with renewed energy. Tiny Knee went over for a touchdown and Singleton kicked goal. Score: Wabash, 7; Butler, 6. Brilliant open-field running by Woods pul the hall in position early in the third period, and Griggs came through for the third time from the fortv-three-vard line. Two attempts for drop kicks were blocked by the fast-charging Butler line as the time was up. But- ler had won its sixth straight game. One Hundred and Eleven PAGEMEN WIN SEV- ENTH Butler, 19; Rose Poly, 0. Irwin Field, November 4. The Blue and White faced Rose Poly November 4, on Irwin Field for their seventh and last small game of the season. The clean, hard play of the Rose Engineers, though outclassed from the first whistle, was the real feature of the afternoon. Forsythe, Miller and Campbell, backfield players, deserve special mention for their runs. A long pass, Griggs to Blessing, and a plunge by Harry Hungate ac- counted for the first Butler score early in the first quarter. Shortly be- fore intermission Hungate intercepted a Rose pass, and dashed forty yards for the second goal. Af- ter a sensational run of : ' ifty-two yards through a roken field by Griggs in .VllRTHAM SCORIXC, T H I K 1 1 TOUCHDOWN the same period, Johnny Northam went ten yards for the third touch- down and final Butler score. Griggs attempted five placements from 56, 25, 26, 43, and 50-yard distances during the game, hut failed on every trial. A strong wind and a heavy field were disadvantages. With seven straight victories and no defeats and the I. C. A.

HAL ' S THIRTY-FIVE-YARD RUN | Ul=tj M w i iih- Hundred and Thirteen Cut and bruised from eight strenuous games, the Butler eleven faced Notre Dame on Irwin Field November 18, for the State champion- ship. Every conceivable nook lodged a watcher as the two undefeated teams came out on the muddy field. Notre Dame played the opening quarter with nine second-string men to wear down the opponents, and during this period Butler had the edge. Coach Rockne substituted his varsity as the second period began, but undaunted, Butler punted, recovered on a fumble, made first down on a forward-pass, and scored three points and first blood on a pretty twenty-eight yard placement field-goal booted by Hal Griggs. On a long end-run behind inter- ference that no team could have broken up, Don Mill- er scored the first touch- down. Layden broke through for another as the half came to a close. WALLY INTERCEPTS PASS Bergman and Mahr made touchdowns in the third quarter follow- ing sensational openfield runs on the muddy field. For the only score of the final period, Thomas went over, and Notre Dame was victor, 32-3. After intercepting a pass near the center of the field, Griggs and Northam reeled off two first downs. Nipper was substituted, and made twenty-five yards on a forward pass. The run looked good for a touch- down, but interference was slow to form and Nipper was stopped by the Notre Dame safety man on the eight-yard-line. Phil Brown and John Ferree played their last game on Irwin Field under the Blue and White. They fought with the last ounce of their strength, and ofttimes broke through the Irish line to upset the runner for a loss. Fuzz Hungate, Reichel, Griggs and Middlesworth were others to star in defeat. Bethany alone faced Butler. The most important objectives had been taken in Wabash and DePauw, and victory or defeat at Bethany was of less concern. MUD DOESN ' T BOTHER CASTNER One Hundred and Fourteen THE SECOND DEFEAT Butler, 7; Bethany, 29. Wheeling, W. Va., Novem- ber 25. BETHANY BACKS I ' l.nW THHi l c;H It was a case of too long a grind at top speed, a very able opponent, and a sharp change in the weather lor Butler. There was not a word of alibi from any Butler man, however. So the press summed up Butler ' s defeat by Bethany College at Wheeling, W. Va., on November 25. The final score was 29-7. On a frozen gridiron the scarred blue-jerseyed players fought with all their remaining strength. In the first four minutes, Bethany, out- weighing the Bulldogs fifteen pounds to the man, pushed over the first touchdown, Cranfield carrying the ball. Two more goals and a place- ment wiere added dur- ing the second and third quarters, and it was 22-0 against Butler. In the final few minutes of play as darkness was setting over the field, Griggs completed a long pass and skirted the Bethany right end for a run to touchdown. A few minutes later the game ended, and Butler had lost her second and last tussle of the 1922 season, 29-7. Middlesworth, Griggs, Phil Brown, Strole, Ferret ' and others kept their spirit throughout and played hard games despite their injuries and thi ' overwhelming score. BUTLER LINE FALTERS Butler had ended the season with two defeats, but look at it as a whole, the 1922 season had been the most prosperous and laudable in the history of the College.

Upon detraining from the long journey from Bethany College at Wheeling, W. Ya., on Sunday morning, November 2( , the squad was met by members of the Pi Beta Phi Women ' s Sorority and escorted to the Severin Hotel. Breakfast was served in the grill room, Miss Margaret Kellenbach, toastmistress, presiding, and calling on several of the players. In line spirit and enthusiasm, the business men of Irvington enter- tained thi ' squad at the Canteen on Monday evening, November 27. It was one of the most enjoyable occasions of all, reflecting the good wishes of the Irvington merchants for the continued success of the College at the new location. The following noon, Tuesday, November 2cS, was spent with the Indianapolis Rotary Club at the Riley Boom of the Claypool Hotel. Meredith Nicholson, Chick Jackson, Bill Herschell, and Kin Hubbard were on the program. The Kappa Kappa Gamma Women ' s Sorority took its turn on Wednesday and gave a dinner at the chapter house. I remember the baked ham, especially, reminisced Coach Page, Oh! yes, the service by the Freshman girls, too. Several of the Freshmen players, who were supposed to have a ready flow of words, helped to round out the program. The Butler Boosters entertained for the team with a dinner al the Chamber of Commerce building Monday evening, December 4. Harry Lauder, the Scotch singer, spoke and also sang a few of his favorite songs al (lie banquet given by the Optimist Club on Friday, December 8, at the reception hall of the Hotel Lincoln.

CAPTAIN-ELECT Football prospects for 1923 are that Butler will again be contend- ers for the State championship, says Coach Page. Active training for the 1923 football season will begin on September 10 for all schools in the new Indiana Conference League, which means that only twelve days will intervene before the first game for Butler. Two strong players will be missed when practice begins, ex-Captains Phil Brown and Johnny Ferree being lost through graduation. More than half of the varsity players of the 1922 squad, led by Harold H. Hungate, all-State tackle and considered one of the best linemen in the middle West, are expected back in uniform. Only seasoned men will play the games, Freshmen being ruled ineligible for intercollegiate competition. Seven of the nine games will be played on Irwin Field which will be deserted in 1924 for an athletic field and gridiron at Fairview, ac- cording to plans of the committee in charge. The Haskell Indians, an outfit that is known over the nation, are the only new-comers on the card. On their two trips they are to meet leading elevens in the Middle West. Bethany College, of Wheeling, W. Va., will be here on October 20 for the homecoming day festivities. I One Hundred and EitshtCt r- Captain Harry Duttenhaver, guard or center, despite ;i game leg which prevented his participation in the first and the last couple games, played real ball as leader of the 1! 22 victorious Butler football team. Dult was shifted from center to guard this season, and proved to be one of the best on both defense and offense in the line. He was in every play, and was espcially good at analyzing the opponent ' s attack. In 1921, he was selected as second all-State center, and would have landed an honor again this year hut for his untimely accident. Captain Dutt still has two years of eligibility in college football ahead of him. Ex-Capjain Phii. Brown, tackle, for five years a mainstay of Butler football, played his last and best game at tackle this season. He has the old light and pepper that keeps the team on its toes whether winning or losing. In the off-tackle play that was probably the best Butler had, Phil played an important part. He was prominently men- tioned in all-Stale selections, and it will he hard for Coach Page to find a man to take his place next Tail. Ex-Captain Johnny Ferree, fullback, w as captain of the Butler eleven in l!)l(i, and since then out of school. Johnny Fence ' s comeback as one of the outstanding players on the P.I22 varsity was one of the sur- prising features of the season. Like Fuzz, Ferree has both weight and speed. Illinois appreciated this when the big Blue and While lu ll- back toil ' through its line for long gains. John had the man-sized job of backing up the line on the defense and of carrying the ball from the fullback position on the offense. His graduation will leave another position hard to lib. One Hundred and Nineteen Captain-Elect H. H. Hungate, guard, a veteran of three seasons, was an outstanding player of nearly every game. Weighing over 200 pounds and yet possessing plenty of speed, Fuzz is in the midst of every play. Getting through to down the runner for a loss, knocking down forward passes, and getting down under punts are his specialties. That is not all that he can do, however, for occa- sionaly Coach Page calls him into the backfield with good results. Fuzz had a first position in jpsk nearly all all-State selections. A .. «._ most successful season under Captain-Elect Hungate is antici- pated. Walden Middlesworth, is quarterback. Called from his regular position at end to quarterback, Wally ran the team in faultless style throughout the season. On more than a few occasions it was his generalship that carried the Blue and White to victory. Besides calling the signals, Wally was a sure defense man, could carry the ball himself, and was especially good at grabbing forward passes (both Butler ' s and the opponent ' s). The combination of these prowresses won Wally an almost unanimous selection for z - the all-State quarterback posi- • , ■ tion. He has another year in col- lege athletics. Lot Reichel, center, is a scrappy, aggressive player, valuable to any team both on the defense and the offense. Lou ' s work at breaking up the opponent ' s plays was one of the features of the season. He took Dutt ' s position as center when the Captain was forced out with a wounded leg, and was a match for any center he ever bucked up against. Reichel was mentioned on several all- State selections, and with three years ahead, ought to make an enviable record under Coach Page. One Hundred and Twenty Gerald Woods plays halfba game, the harder Nig fights. II the Wabash Cavemen was spectacular, one zi drive going twenty-one yards through the Litlh Giant ' s team and putting the hall in position foi Grigg ' s second placement. At Illinois his long well-placed punts kept the Orange attack in its own territory. Woods is at passing the ball and in his two more years at Butler will he a big asset behind the line. John Leslie, left end. a versatile athlete, has taken care of the other end of the line for the past three years in creditable style, and while not a flashy player, can he depended on to deliver at all times. Several times during the season, Les was called hack on a trick play to carry the hall. He was also on the receiving end of numerous passes, and succeeded in completing a large ma- jority of them. Next year will he John ' s last on . ■k the Butler gridiron. %L |v A Hal Griggs, halfback, chosen by Walter K. Echersall for hon- orable mention on his All-West- ern mythical eleven, first choice by the large majority for a first position on all-Slate selections and a player for Nation-wide distinction, came through in tin pinches for the Blue and While on the gridiron last fall, and won at least three of the ten games by kicking goals from the field. He scored in every game. Hal also played an im- portant part in carrying the hall, and held down the position of safety man on the defense. He has two more years of varsity football. One Hundred ami Twenty-one Gerald Strole, tackle, a big raw-boned young- ster, played a good bard game in his Freshman year in the Butler line, breaking through the op- ponent ' s line and smearing many a play before it was well started. Jerry was, also, right there on offensive play, clearing the way for the man with the ball. He recevied honorable mention on State selections, and with three years more eligibility has a promising college football career. Robert Nipper, halfback, one of Coach Page ' s most promising Freshman comers, was a reliable baekfield sub- stitute, getting into most of the games and show- ing the stuff that makes star players. Bob has a cool head and with his natural athletic ability ought to be one of the mainstays for next fall ' s varsity. He is a good open-field £® runner, has the speed for end-run plays, and is a sure man on the defense. David Konold, right-end, is a hard-hitting tackier, with plenty of speed to get down under punts, and the basketball ability to catch forward passes. Notre Dame ' s famous in- terference had trouble in clearing the way on an end-run play around Dave, while Illinois, Wa- bash and other teams resorted to other tactics after a few futile attempts to circle the ends. Dave is only a sophomore, and with two more years of football under Coaches Page and Hinkle, should develop into an even better player. One Hundred and Twenty-two Qiauapi w Richard Strickland, end, is small in stature luil mighty in deed. Dick played both fullback and end during the season. Until hig Ferree en- tered school, ' Strick with his 135 pounds was hammering away al the fullback position, and getting away with il pretty well, too. II ' Dick couldn ' t go through, he ' d go over or around or anyway. Alternating with Leslie and Konold, Dick got into the later games al end and lea- lured with long, hard-living tack- les. Dick has two more years of varsity competition. •• , Hiram Hensel, guard, won his letter in football during his Freshman year by aggressive work a I guard position. While Captain Duttenhaver was convalesanl with a gun-shot wound, Hensel had his job and filled the leader ' s shoes creditably. He also got into the later games, and although not an outstanding player, was consistently good and reliable. With his size and speed, he also has a height future. Robert Blessing, end, started some of the most important games on the wing. Bob had the speed to gel down under punts. lie was hard to box on end-run plays, and many limes got around the interference and tackled the runner for a loss. Against Karlham, Blessing com- pleted a twenty-one yard forward pass for a touch- down. He has another year of eligibility at But- One Hundred and Tzventy-three Harry Hungate is a fullback. Following in the steps of his big brother, Harry is on the way to success in Butler athletics if his Freshman per- formances are any indication. Playing without a headgear and butting through the opponent ' s line for good gains, he was one of the best first- year men on the team. Harry is another Tech high school product and a comer in college football circles. O ■ John Northam, fullback, called on frequently to relieve War-Horse Ferree at full, is another Freshman athlete who is sure to play an important part on the Butler gridiron during the next several seasons. A 10- seeond man, Johnny is especially good at chasing around the ends. In the game his line-plunging was also outstanding. Northam t has the makings of one of the best backs on the squad. Carl Cecil plays guard. Big, jolly Fat Cecil wasn ' t as soft as some imagined. In the line he slapped the best of ' em down under the punts. He usually alternated with Fuzz Hungate, and should make a good substitute for the captain- elect after his graduation. Carl is a good, hard worker, and with bis determination is sure to make a name for himself in the three vears ahead. ' %=][ One Hundred and Twenty-four Merle Rotroff, halfback, wton his varsity letter for two years ' faithful work in the back-field Merle is a good substitute at half with speed that makes successful wide end-runs. He is probably as good as any man on the leam in backing up the line, and would have seen more action except for the many high class backs on the 1922 squad. Two more seasons under Coaches Page and Hinklc ought to round Merle info a val- uable half-back. : ! - substitute end. to be a player Gordon Pail, was recognized late in the season with more than ordinary possibilities. PauFs best position seemed to he at end, where he saw action in several of the games. He is fast on his feet and hits hard on the defense. In his three years re- maining on the gridiron, Paul is expected to de- S. velop into a good, steady, hard- J V fightine end. Joseph Vickers, substitute hack, comes from Hyde Park. Chicago, where they turn out football players of class. Joe is good at either the half or fullback positions, and excells at smashing through the line for nice gains. Vick can also run interference along with the best, and will make a strong hid for a regular hack-field job m the varsity next fall. He has three more years under the Blue and White. u tr= ] C Ik; w ( nc Hundred and Tiventy-fii c Glenn Duttenhaver, utility back-field man, hasn ' t the size of his brother nor his experience, but for all that he has natural football ability and the makings for an outstanding player. Young Dutt is especially remembered for his play at Wheeling, AY. Va., where, under his generalship at quarterback, the Blue and White made the touchdown and only score against Bethany Col- lege. He has two more years at Butler of gridiron competition. Carter Helton, quarterback, coming from Indiana University, where he was a regular on the Freshman football team, won his letter on the gridiron by some good work from the quarterback position. Helton lacks weight to carry the ball himself, but makes up for this with a thorough knowledge of the game and the re- quirements of his post. He will be a strong sub- Astitute to run the team when W ally Middlesworth and Buck Brown are lost by grad- uation next year. Pall Brown, quarterback, was out of the first few games with an infected arm. Buck, varsity quarter for two years, had an uphill fight through- out the season to regain his old-time stride. Brownie knows football, and can get the maxi- mum out of a team. He has another year at But- le r, and will be one of the veterans that Coach Page will depend on for the success of the 1923 squad. One Hundred and Twenty-six JEEEDC n ,! §ihiip p DG 3 De= ' Basketball g 1W23 ife § E=][F One Hundred and Twenty-seven i r=i c m waip Basketball 1922-23 The Football team set a fast pace last fall, but through the winter months the Basketball squad won equally high success that ranks the season at the top in Butler history. In twenty major contests, the Bulldog netters won seventeen for a total number of 732 points to the opponents ' 425, or an average of 37 to 21 scores a game. Coach H. O. Page had a strong lot of veterans from the 1921-1922 year as a foundation, and as the season progressed, a half-dozen first year players developed into varsity class. Wisconsin, Chicago, Illinois and Purdue, leading Western Confer- ence schools, fell before the Blue and White attack. No secondary col- lege five in the country can boast of such an achievement against the Big Ten universities. Three of these teams were beaten on their own ball courts. Hardly less conspicuous than the record with the Conference quints, was the standing of Butler in Indiana Conference basketball. Franklin college alone stood ahead, and it was not until the final game of the season that the State title was definitely established. Wabash, national and State champions in 1921-1922, was downed twice, as were Notre Dame and Earlham, while Purdue (1922 Western Conference cham- pions) DePauw, Bosc Poly, Hanover and others were given single set- backs. The scrub members of the squad, comprising what was known as the Butler Seconds, took on the best independent teams in the city for One Hundred and Twenty-eight preliminary games to the main scraps, and came consistently through as winners. Soon after the close of the season, the varsity award of a mono- gramed sweater was made to the following players.: Captain John Leslie. ex-Captain Orville Hooker. Captain-Elect Walden Middlesworth, Halden Griggs, Robert Nipper, Eugene Colway, ' rebut Harker, Gordon Paul and Paul Jones. Captain John Leslie, forward. Junior, led the Bulldogs against the best teams in the country. Lcs was in the midst of every play, being a good man on the defense as well as on the offense. His speed and clever floor-play were outstanding in every game. Ex-Captain Orville Hooker, forward. Junior, is the 1 ' . 122-215 field- goal champion of the world. Willi his team-male, Captain Leslie, be formed the famous Anderson blaze-away combination. Hook was best from a distance, his long shots ofttimes saving the Butler slate when the opponents were coming close. Captain-Elect Walden Middlesworth, floor guard. Junior, was ac- claimed one of the best guards in Indiana. Wally bung to his man like a bulldog to a tram]), and seldom allowed him more than a smell at the basket. It looks good for next year with Wally leading the team. Halden Griggs, center, Sophomore, was the high-point scorer of the team, and also had a place among the top-notchers of the Slate. Hal was almost unanimously the choice lor the center position on mythical all-State team selections. Tebut Harker. back guard. Freshman, in his first year al Butler, won recognition as a basketball player of varsity calibre. Harker showed up well as a guard to break up plays. Eugene Colway, back guard. Sophomore, alternated with Harker un- der the opponents ' basket, and played in most of the big games of the year. Pug has all the qualifications for a good guard, as was shown in the Purdue game when he stopped the fast attack of the 1922 Confer- ence championship team. Robert Nipper, floor guard or forward. Freshman, was consistently a good player during the season. Bob was valuable to the team al any position, and though his work w is rarely spectacular, it was always well done. Gordon Paul, forward, Freshman, with three years of Butler basket- ball ahead, ought to become one of the best players on the team. Paul has lots of speed, passes well, bid is a little weak on shooting, a fault that needs only practice for correction. Paul Jones, forward or center. Junior, was another hard-working player and one thai could be depended on in the emergencies. Jonesie has a good reach and has a sharp eye for the basket. Emil Harmeson, forward, Sophomore, won his letter for two years ' service on the varsity squad. Harme mixed in where the scrap was the toughest, and was good al getting free for close-up shots. Paul McNorton, forward. Sophomore, is the go-get-il type of player that is dangerous against any team. Mac shoots on the run. and when in form ranks with the best. Arthur Black, center; Eugene Doss, center: and George Sisson, back guard, entered school at the beginning of the spring semester, and won places on the basketball squad. Doss and Sisson are Freshmen, while Black. Sophomore, was out id ' Butler for a semester. One Hundred and Twenty-nine L= Let the Figures Say It BASKETBALL SCORES SEASON, 1922-1923 Butler Opt.

No Hoosier team boasts a prouder record than the Bulldogs, and with a fine nucleus of old timers and an incoming lot of promising underclassmen, the future has much in store. Foremost in the victory column of the 1922 season conies the three Western Conference victories : Purdue, on April 16, was sent home with a defeat, 4-3; Ohio State fell, 4-2, on May 6, here; while the cleanup at Chicago, 12-0, on April 22, was a masterpiece. DePauw was twice de- feated by the hard-hitting of the Bulldogs, taking an 8-2 count on Irwin Field May 13, and a 7-0 whitewash on its own lot April 28. Franklin, Earlham and Bose Poly were set down along with others. To open the season on April 6, the Blue and White met with an honorable defeat at the hands of the American Association Indians at Washington Park. Jake Staton had the leaguers shut out until the seventh, when they rallied and won, 4-1. The climax of the season came on the Irwin Field diamond in the last game of the season, June 3, when the Wabash Cavemen were squelched for another year with 20 solid hits and a 11-6 defeat. The team could hit, and the base-running was good. The defense was steady in fielding and superb in pitching, while aggressiveness, determination, and team-spirit were the big guns. Students, alumni, and city friends backed the team in true college style, and all enjoyed a highly successful season. The future slogan is: Butler, the University of Indianapolis, to the Orient in the near future. One Hundred and Thirty-four One Hundred and Thirtv-fk IJ BASEBALL VARSITY The personnel of the 1922 baseball squad was well-balanced. Two seniors were lost by graduation — ex-Captain R. H. Jones, a cleanup ' litter and sure fielder, and Ed Diederich, utility infielder for the last two seasons. The battery work was ably handled by Jake Staton and Al Slaughter, pitchers, and Fuzz Hungate and Don Milburn, catchers. Captain Heinie Goett. a natu ral outfielder, was pressed into infield service, and came through with brilliant plays, especially in engineering double outs with Al Screes at second base. Bob Blessing played bang-up ball at the hot corner, while P. E. Brown and Dizzy Jones alternated at the initial sack. In the outfield, Butler had real strength in Captain-Elect Wally Middlesworth, a fine hitter and base-runner, at center, John Leslie and Bob Keacli in the sunfield, and Mother Jones in right field. The fourteen players shown above were awarded the varsity letter at the end of the season. The scrubs had especially good material in Schwomeyer, Hooker, Caraway, Griggs, Fields, and others.

Ham, Huher, Wales, and Caraway, in order named, ran the mile distance in the fast time of 3.31, finishing in fourth place. For half that distance, Stewart, Ham, Huber and Caraway finished fifth in 1.36. Nig Woods placed second in the high jump event, clearing the bar at 6 feet and tying for second place. The Interclass Track and Field meet in April was won by the Freshman class. Franklin College was easy for the Bulldogs in a dual meet at Irwin Field on May 5, falling before the doubled count of 84-42. Butler won ten firsts, and outclassed the Baptists in all departments save the dashes. With 39 points, Butler finished second to Earlham in the last annual I. C. A. L. meet at Rose Poly on May 12, Griggs smashing the javelin throw record with a toss of 146 feet. The Quakers totaled 77 points, and Rose was third with 19V2- Stewart, Ham, Caraway, Doolittle, Mer- cer and Woods, besides Griggs, made the Butler scores. Bettered by Notre Dame, Purdue. DePauw and Earlham, in the order named, Butler with 17 points, was fifth in standing after the Indiana State Track and Field meet at Lafayette on May 17. Doolittle outran all opponents, and set a new State record for the two-mile run at 9.45 minutes. Griggs, Stew- art, Mercer and Woods were other scorers for the Blue and White, while the relay quartet pressed Notre Dame to a fast pace and finished a close second. To end the 1922 season, Doolittle and Cap- tain-Elect Woods carried Butler ' s colors to the Western Conference meet at Iowa City, Iowa, on June 3, and to the National Intercollegiate meet at Chicago on June 17. At Iowa Rilus scored a third in the tw ' o-mile run, and Nig jumped to a tie for third place. At the Windy City, Doolittle came through with a second in the two-mile run, while Nig was tied for fifth place in the running high jump.

Following the last of the varsity games, a school tournament was conducted under the direction of Wally Middlesworth. The Rose Poly racquet swingers came here for the first meet of the season on April 19. Wylie lost in the singles, but Gloin won his match to tie the score. Thomas and Graham came through on top in the doubles, and Butler was victor by a 2-1 margin. Wabash was just as easy on the home courts, being defeated 4 to 2. Graham, Wylie and Gloin, in the singles, and Wylie-Gloin combination in the doubles were winners, while Thomas was shaded in the singles and Graham-Thomas in the doubles. The afternoon was favorable for fast play on the courts, and a good crowd of students reclined in the shade to watch the Wabashers defeated. In a practice meet with Jameson and Hare of the Indianapolis Ten- nis Association at the Technical high school courts on May 12, the But- ler team made a clean sweep, 3 to 0. Wylie and Gloin had things their own way in the single matches, while Graham and Thomas were easy winners in the doubles. With the I. C. A. L. tourney less than two weeks distant, a team com- posed of Gloin, Graham, and Thomas went to Terre Haute, on May 7, for a return engagement with the Rose Poly Engineers. Butler lost the first meet of the season, 1 to 2, when Graham-Thomas won the doubles, but Gloin and Graham both fell in the singles. At the I. C. A. L. on May 19 and at the Conference on June 3, the Butler players met stiffer competition, and were eliminated in the first rounds. The school tennis tournament late in May created much interest, approximately fifty signing up for play. The four members of the varsity team, Gloin, Thomas, Wylie and Graham, won their way through the preliminary rounds. In the finals Gloin won a stiff match from Thomas, 1-6, 6-3, 6-4, and 6-3. There were no doubles. Awards of gold and silver medals wtere presented the finalists by the Skulls Club. One Hundred and Forty-two Three rounds of fast tennis were necessary to decide the championship of Alice Crozier in the Butler Women ' s singles tournament last May over Mildred Fox-worthy. The set scores for the finals were 6-3, 3-6, and 6-2. About thirty girls entered, and the competition was lively, especially as the field became narrowed after the preliminary rounds. There were not enough teams signed up for the doubles tourna- ment, but it is hoped that this spring will pro- duce enough added interest in tennis to have both the singles and the doubles. Womens ' baseball and swimming, new sports for Butler girls, art ' on the program for next season, according to Miss Louise Schul- mcyer, athletic instructor. It is planned to use the Y. W. C A. pool for the aquatic splashings. ALICE CROZIER The Sorority Relay The Kappa Alpha Theta Sorority, represented by Hal Griggs, Scott Ham, Dave Konold, Al Screes. Art Black and Hughes Updegraff, took first place in .the sorority relay races held under the direction of Coach Page on the Irwin Field cinder track May 17, 1022. Ham ran the fastest half-lap of the afternoon and spoiled the Tri Delts ' chance for the victor by a margin of a few yards. The other teams entered finished as follows: Pi Beta Phi, third; Delta Pi Omega, fourth; Zeta Tau Alpha, fifth; and Kappa Kappa Gam- ma, sixth. Six chosen men each ran for a sorority a half lap each for an aggregate distance of over hall ' a mile. It is planned to make the sororitv relavs an annual affair. L= One Hundred and Forty-three 1F=1 t DELTA TAU INTRA-MURAL WINNERS For the second time in three years the Delta Tan Delta Fraternity hasketball team won the Interfraternity Championship and silver loving enp awarded bv the Skull Club. Sigma Chi was first in the running in 1922. To win the honor this season, the Dclts took six out of eight games played for a 750 r r average. The title was clinched on March 1, when the Lambda Chi Alpha five, runner-up, went down, 34 to 25, before the fast attack of the champions. Four teams, Delta Tail Delta, Lambda Chi Alpha, Phi Delta Theta. and the Butler Association, were tied for first place after the last round of the series, and it was necessary to arrange post-season games to decide the winner. The Dclts and the Butler Association, and the Lambda Chis and the Phi Dclts were paired for the semi- finals, with the first named coming out on top in the end. Homer Woodling, Dan Armstrong, John Conley, David Kilgore. Hiram Hensel, and Paul Vandi- ver were principals in the Delt lineups. After the Delts and Lambda Chis. the contending fraternities fin- ished as follows: Phi Delta Theta and the Butler Association, tied for third; Sigma Chi, fifth, and the Sandwich club, sixth. There was much rivalry between the various organizations represented in the league, and tbe games were well attended by the students. Dick Corya deserves mention for his work in planning and managing the games. One Hundred and Forty-four GIRLS ' VARSITY BASKETBALL SQUAD Following the Sorority League games, twenty-five girls were chosen to represent the college in the inter-collegiate games that had been scheduled. The girls selected were Marian Breadheft, Frances Brubeck, Mary Bear, Josephine Buenting, Patia Carver, Alice Crozier, Catherine Dodson, Marie George, Miriam Garrison, Helen Haight, Florence Hoov- er, Susie Harmon, Pauline Ingalls, Charlotte King, LaVonnc Larrison. Lillian Martin, Louise Padou, Doris Poe, Ellen Saxon, Dorothy Steven- son, Kathcrine Schmidt, Mildred Stockdale, Louise Strickland, Dorothy White, and Mildred Winship. The squad was coached by Miss Louise Schulmeyer, women ' s athletic director. The success of the season is proved by the game scores listed below.

A. A. For the past three years the women of the College have been mak- ing an effort to place themselves, athletically, on the campus After untiring effort on the part of the women in the Physical Education Department an association has been developed and promises to he a very energetic organization to promote all women ' s activities This organization is known as The Women ' s Athletic Association and the need of it has been felt by all the students who have been active in the Physical Education Department. In the year 1921. Miss Schnlmcvcr and Cleon Headrich, a student representative, attended the National Conference of the various college and university athletic associations, held at Indiana University After hearing the reports and discussions of the representatives at this confer- ence. Miss Sehulmeycr realized more than ever the benefits derived from an athletic association and became determined to form one at Butler She immediately started to make plans and during the next two years visited other colleges and universities, gathering information and ' help in order to establish a W. A. A. on a firm basis at Butler. This spring she telt that with what material she had and the promised support of the women in her department, such an organization could be realized. Plans were started at once. A committee consisting of Marie Ceorge, Charlotte King and Alice Crozier, drew up a constitution which was presented and voted upon by representatives, from all women ' s organizations on the campus. This spring the W. A. A. was presented to all the women of the college. All had the privilege of joining the association and the result ot the membership campaign made by the Physical Education Depart- ment shows that the women of Butler College are willing and ready to support the new organization. For the remainder of the present school year the association will work on a program of athletic activities for women, the general desire being to increase the number of women participants and to broaden the field of athletics in which they may compete. Beginning next fall, only those will be admitted to membership in the association, who have attained a certain number of points as a result of records made in the Physical Education Department, and made the scholastic standing named in the association By-laws. The promoters of the Women ' s Athletic Association want it under- stood that this is an organization of the campus and not one for the athletes of the school only. The primary object is, of course, to place women ' s athletics on the campus, functioned in a manner which will be of benefit to all. You do not have to be athletically inclined in order to participate for a program has been mapped out which will enable all to take part whether they are athletic stars or not. Every one will have an opportunity to receive the proper training of real ' benefit to them. The end in view is to bring the majority of college women into some branch of physical activitiv. One Hundred and Forty-seven The Independent Blacks, Winners Defeating every team in the league, the Independent girls ' basket- hall squad won the sorority championship for the 1922-23 year. The games were played in the college gymnasium under the direction of Miss Louise Schulmeycr, women ' s athletic instructor, with the schedule so arranged that every team played every other team. The seven sororities represented finished in the following order: Independents, Delta Delta Delta and Zeta Tau Alpha, tied for first place, Kappa Alpha Theta, fourth; Pi Beta Phi, Kappa Kappa Gamma, and Delta Pi Omega tied for fifth. The Independent team was composed of Doris Poc, captain; Dor- othy Stephenson, Ellen Saxon, Mariana Garrison, Josephine Buenting, Katherine Schmidt, and Emma Schlender. Outstanding players on the other sextettes include Marian Breadfelt, Frances Brubeck, Mary Bear, Patia Carver, Alice Crozier, Catherine Dodson, Marie George, Helen Haight, Florence Hoover, Susie Harmon, Pauline Ingalls, Charlotte King, LaVonne Larrison, Lillian Martin, Louise Padou, Mildred Stockdale, Louise Strickland, Dorothy White, and Mildred Winship.

One Hundred and Forty-eight JEEEE3C 1 waHp Dg=i Ik One Hundred tniil Forty-nine :e=](F The Interfraternity Council President Wendell Brown Secretary and Treasurer Harold F. Kealing The Interfraternity Council is an organization composed of repre- sentatives of the men ' s fraternal groups at Butler College. The or- ganization seeks to regulate the inter-relationships of the member groups, and to promote a feeling of good will and fellowship among all Fraternity men. The Council was re-organized this year and an effort was made to delegate sufficient authority to the Council so that it could enforce its rulings. The first regular meeting was held December 15, 1922, at the Sigma Chi House. The four national fraternities were represented as follows: Delta Tail Delta, Wendell Brown and John Leslie; Phi Delta Theta, Philip Brown and Harold Kealing; Sigma Chi, James Gloin and Hughes Updegraff ; Lambda Chi Alpha, William O ' Daniel and Maurice Tuttle. The chief work of the Council this year has been the preparation of a constitution acceptable to all the fraternities represented in the Council. The constitution as approved by the fraternities and adopted by the Council is very comprehensive and equitable. It provides for restriction of indiscriminate pledging, for a scholastic standard to be attained before a pledge may be initiated, and for prevention of pledge lifting. Enforcement of the constitution by the Council is rendered effective by the fact that each fraternity deposits a forfeit check of $50 with the President of the College. In case of violation of the con- stitution the Council holds a hearing on the matter and in case of cer- tainty of guilt ma} 7 cash the forfeit check.

In Tau Kappa Tau is a group of men who have felt the need of Greek-letter Fraternity expansion at Butler. The Col- lege has grown so rapidly in recent years that buildings and equipment have failed to accommodate the 1,000 men and women who attend. As Butler moves to Fairview to permit expansion, so has Tau Kappa Tau been born with a similar ambition — to fill the need for more Greek- letter organizations. The charter members of Tau Kappa Tau organized under William B. Neukom and set their goal as Beta Theta Pi. The chapter roll includes Xeukom, Bobert Hittle, Taylor Creighton, George Clark, Marion Eppert, Frank Sisson, Glenn Gray and Frederick Ballweg. The new organization has adopted a pledging policy which countenances only the pledging of men who either are seniors in high school or are enrolled in Butler. V. T. McLeay and John H. Heiney, members of Beta Theta Pi, are sponsors for the Fraternity. They will assist in presenting the petition of Tau Kappa Tau to the national Fraternity.

Delta Sigma Phi, a men ' s loca l Fraternity, was organized January 15, 1923, and established rooms in the Carr building on East Washing- ton street. The Fraternity was the outgrowth of the prevailing opinion at Butler that there is a need for more Greek-letter Fraternities. Fourteen members completed the original charter-roll: Robert Dye, Austin Rutherford, Stephen Pherigo, Maxwell Hosca, James Peb- worth, Myron Meyers, Walter Gurley, Harold Stewart, Ruel Thornberry, George Ostheimer, James Jay, John Rohn, Gene Hatfield, and Harold Van Bussum. Myron Meyers was elected president, and James Peb- worth, secretary. Mr. Meyers is a member of the Sigma Nu fraternity from George Washington University. C. H. Spurgeon, M. D., sponsor for the organization, is a physician of Indianapolis. Delta Sigma Phi intends to start preparations next fall toward peti- tioning a charter from one of the national Greek-letter Fraternities. |[=3 One Hundred and Sixty-three Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity Kappa Alpha Psi was one of the first incorporated Greek-letter Fraternities among negro college men. Organized January 5, 1911, at Indiana University it has grown until today chapters may be found in nineteen of the leading universities and in addition there are four- teen alumni chapters in the large cities of the country. Nu chapter is located in Indianapolis and its membership is con- fined to students in Butler, Indiana Dental College and Indiana Law School. The present Polemarch of Nu chapter is Earl Roberts, a Junior in Indiana Dental School. There are no active members in Butler College this semester but Harry Campbell and Theodore David are pledges. Many of the chapters own their own houses and the last report showed over eighty thousand dollars ' worth of property held by the fraternity. National headquarters are in Indianapolis. Alpha Kappa Alpha Organized at Howard University, Washington, D. C, the Kappa Alpha Sorority has had a splendid growth and now has chapters in a number of the leading universities in the country. Founded upon the principal of mutual benefit and service to others the organization has given help to many girls of the negro race. The local chapter has given a scholarship to one of the young ladies now attending Butler. The Kappa chapter was founded at Butler in 1920. Its membership included: Martha Harner, Edith Botts, Lorene Taylor, Hazel Jackson, Helen Taylor, Thelma Frost and Dora Atkins. Alpha Phi Alpha Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity was organized at Cornell University in 1906, and was the first inter-collegiate fraternity to be organized among the negroes. Today there are forty-four chapters located in the leading universities in the country. In addition to the benefits that the individual members enjoy, the fraternity contributed to the uplift of the race in many ways. The yearly campaign to encourage the negro youth to go to school, has received the commendation of President Harding. The Iota Lambda chapter was organized in the city of Indianapolis in May, 1922. It is a graduate chapter with permission to initiate stu- dents from the various Indiana colleges. Its roster at Butler follows: Averitte Corlev, Robert Duncan, Solomn Edwards, and James Ervin.

This local organization works on the Butler campus under the guidance of the National Pan-Hellenic Association. There are at present six members, five of which are national organizations : Kappa Alpha Theta, Delta Delta Delta, Kappa Kappa Gamma, Pi Beta Phi, and Zeta Tau Alpha, and one local, Delta Pi Omega. Each member of the Association elects two representatives every year to attend the meetings, which come the first Tuesday of every month. The work of the last year has included the complete revision and publication of rushing rules for 1923-24, and several parties which the Pan-Hellenic Association has sponsored in an endeavor to bring into closer relation all the Women of the college. The policy of the Associa- tion also encourages and aids the establishment of new women ' s Sor- orities on the campus.

Its purpose is to bring together the sorority and non-sorority girls at Butler. To accomplish this, the members are chosen because of their democratic spirit and their in- terest in furthering a spirit of co-operation among the organized and unorganized girls. Most of the chapters of Phi Delta Phi are at schools of about the same size as Butler, where the need for such an organiza- tion is most keenly felt. Phi Delta Phi has sponsored some of the most successful all-girl parties at Butler. Notable among these are the HalloW ' een parties in the fall and the Kid parties in the spring. Phi Delta Phi was the first organization of its kind at Butler and it has striven to live up to its ideals. The members include : Marie George, Margaret Schoener, Ruth Bales, Dorothy Black, Mary G. Payne, Patia Carver, Helen Doeppers, Amy Beatty, Mary Crew, Sarah Sisson, Susie Harmon, Pauline Ingalls, Miriam Weir, Helen Hoover and Jean Patterson.

In addi- dition to being a source of leadership, for the student body, the club also serves as a goal to be sought by a Freshman who thus may gain the recognition for services to his College. The group endeavors to unify and stabilize the Col- lege spirit. The chief pre- requisite for membership is sincere loyalty for But- ler College. I E=lP One Hundred and Eighty-tzvo 1 By ' v r fe t % r Pi Scarlet Quill President Laurel Cissna Vice-President Florence Hoover Secretary Geneva Hingate Treasurer Dorothy Perkins Scarlet Quill is an honorary society for upperclasswomen, or- ganized in October, 1921. Twelve Senior and Junior girls are eligible o membership on a basis of high scholastic standing and creditable participation in college activities. As an organization Scarlet Quill strives to support Butler in all worthy endeavors and its members try to participate loyally in all campus projects. Scarlet Quill cherishes as its ideal well-rounded College woman- hood, and by upholding this high standard lor membership it achieves its purpose as an honorary organization. Although it is now a local organization, purely, its members hope to fulfill the purpose of the founders of Scarlet Quill by making it the nucleus of a group that may be able to bring Mortarboard or some other recognized national honor- ary sorority for women to Butler. With the prospective development of the College, this seems altogether possible and promising. The insignia of Hie organization is the scarlet quill worn by (he members on a black fell hat. The colors are the black and scarlet of the head-dress. Ten Seniors and two Juniors have made up the membership during this year. They are Laurel Cissna, Margaret Kellcnbach, Florence Hoover, Mary Payne, Frances Brubeck, Elizabeth Matthews, Helen Brattain Eloise Hamilton, .Miriam Weir, Dorothy Black, Jessie Brown, and Marie George. One Hundred and Eighty-three Sphinx Club President Cassatt Martz Secretary Hughes Updegraff Treasurer Fred E. Schultz The Sphinx Club of Butler College is an honorary Inter-fraternity organization of upperclassmen, designed to foster a spirit of friendship among the undergraduates, and among the various members of the men ' s national fraternities on the campus. The club has for its purpose the attainment for Butler of a leading place in scholarship and scholas- tic standing in the State. It is intended to encourage a high standard of scholarship in its membership, and, as an organization, to aid all worthy campus activities. The local chapter received a charter at Crawfordsville from the Wabash College Chapter of Sphinx, in April, 1922, eleven men receiving the ritualistic work at that time. The active membership of the club is limited to twenty-five, as the aim of the organization is to include only men of proven ability in its membership. In its first year at Butler the club has aided in handling the football crowds at Irwin Field, instituted the awarding of a silver cup to the most outstanding football man of each season, assisted in developing the present Inter-fraternity Council, and supported the strengthening of inter-fraternity friendship. Sigma Chi, Phi Delta Theta, Delta Tau Delta, and Lambda Chi Alpha are the Butler National Fraternities represented in the club. Men are selected twice yearly from the national fraternities on the campus for membership. The pledge ribbon is black and white, and the hat worn by the active member is of the same combination of colors. The pin, as worn, embodies a Sphinx head. Other chapters in Indiana are at Wabash College and at Indiana University. One Hundred and Eighty-four The Scarf Club President Martha Armstrong Vice-President Elizabeth Crowe Secretary Margaret Hoyl Treasurer Grace Noble The Scarf Club is an organization primarily started to promote friendships and a feeling of good fellowship among all Freshmen girls. Since the number of Freshmen girls has been increasing so rapidly, the need for such an organization has become as urgent among the Freshmen themselves as among the upper-classmen. The girls are taken into membership during their first year, and may remain members until graduation. The active workers of the group are confined to the Freshmen girls, but girls of the three upper classes may lie affiliated. Members become alumnae after the first half of the Sophomore year, but the direction of activities remains with them as advisers. Two representatives from each sorority and a proportional number of un- organized girls, to a maximum of thirty, compose the membership. The members are recognized on the campus by the white scarves which they wear. For many years Butler has needed just such an or- ganization as the Scarf Club and its field of work seems unlimited. Its spirit of democracy and its general aim are to be appreciated and heartily recognized on the campus. The girls of the club are congenial and desire to be regarded as friends to all other students. The last year has been one of rather fair accomplishments for so young an organization. Last fall a get acquainted tea was given for the incoming girls. Soon after this, initiation services were held for the ten new members who were chosen from the Freshmen class. At the Christmas season the members distrbiuted baskets to needy families. A spring frolic, in the form of a St. Patrick ' s Day party, was held in the Old Gymnasium in honor of the new girls. One meeting a month is given over to a spread ami general social gathering. One Hundred and Eighty-five Charter Members of the Campus Club President Dora Rigdon Secretary Mildred Goff Treasurer Helen Matlock The Campus Club was organized in the fall of 1922 with Miss Butler and the Senior and Junior woimen living at the College Residence as charter members. Its purposes are to promote the scholarship, the happiness, and the College loyalty of its group, and to make and pre- serve residence traditions. The club colors are silver and gold; and its flower is the chrysanthemum. Scholarship and residence on the campus are the two chief requirements for membership. The club has given several delightful parties during the year, the three principal events being the Christmas dinner, followed by the presentation of the play Why the Chimes Rang, the Valentine party on February 14, and on March 17, the St. Patrick ' s Day co-ed dinner dance. Faculty guests at these functions have been Professor and Mrs. John Harrison, Miss Welling, Professor and Mrs. Henry Gelston, Pro- fessor and Mrs. William Richardson, Professor and Mrs. Guy Shadinger and Mr. and Mrs. Stanley Sellick. The Residence girls are fortunate in having in their group a num- ber of unusually good voices so that all the College songs and numerous special Dorm songs are frequently heard. One of these which is particu- larly liked and often sang will soon have to go into the discard, so its refrain is quoted before it dies : We want to go back to Butler U., To dear old Irvington; We want to go back — we gotta go back To Irvington — Dr=: One Hundred and Eighty-six PR, V i f m fb g , ' If WW LJr % mm Philokurian Literary Society President Edward McGavran Vice-President Mary Crew Secretary Miriam Weir Treasurer Rolin Davis Marshall Howard Howe First Critic Mary Payne Second Critic Holton Bill There was a time in American Colleges when Literary Societies were as prevalent and popular as are Fraternities and Clubs of the present days. Fraternities flourished in that time also, but other ac- tivities centered in Literary Societies, — now not so necessary, perhaps, because of the expansion of the English Departments that include some of the functions of the old-time societies. In that good old day Butler had four Literary Societies, each quar- tered on the third floor back and front of the Administration Building. One of these societies at least limited membership to women,— the Athenian. The other three were exclusively for men,— the Pythonian, the Mathesian, and the Philokurian. Of these, the Philokurian is the sole survivor. It bad its beginnings over at the old Northwestern Christian University in the early 70 ' s, but it bloomed into full flower when the College, now Butler, moved to Irvington. It is consequently the oldest organization of its kind on the campus. It was formed by ministerial students, as the name would suggest, and women were not admitted. But when all the other societies died out, Philo, as it is affectionately known by its members, relented and admitted women as well as students of every calling. Butler is fortunate in having retained Philo with its wealth ot traditions and to have it as a flourishing organization devoted to litera- ture, debate, free and open discussion, with occasional social functions. One Hundred and Eighty-seven Biology Club President Mary Payne Vice-President Rebecca Dixon Secretary Helen Pritchard Treasurer Joseph Burns The Butler Biology Club was first organized in 1913 and has been one of the most active organizations on the campus. The first officers elected were: President, Harry Deitz, who is now State embryologist; vice-president, Clifford Handy; and secretary-treasurer, Stanley Sellick, who is now treasurer of the College. The Club was organized to promote interest in the study of biologi- cal subjects and to enable students to discuss problems which the biology courses cannot readily cover. During the year the organization endeavors to have outside speakers of prominence to address meetings, which are held every two weeks. It is customary for the club to give a party at the end of the first semester and a picnic at the end of the year. Perhaps the most interesting thing that the club does is to send one student each year to the Marine Biological Laboratory at Woods Hole, Massachusetts, for a summer course. This scholarship fund was started in 1916 and the first money for sending a member was raised by exhibits, plays, and other entertainments. This year the Student Budget sup- plies the funds necessary. This scholarship is one which offers an unusual advantage to the recipient, who gains the experience of an entire summer in specialized work. In this way the department here at Butler benefits also, for the students return to college and act as laboratory assistants. One Hundred and Eighty-eight Consul Mary Kathryn Wise Proconsul Kathekine Quig Quaestor Russell I. Richardson The Classical Club was organized in the fall of 1020, under the sponsorship of Professor Gelston and his students. At first it consisted largely of Latin students, but now its membership includes Creek and Latin ' students. There are thirty-five members this year. The purpose of the club is to study classical civilization, to promote interest in the classics and ancient life, to bring the members together in a social way. Meetings are held at the homes of members or at fraternity houses on the first Monday evening of each month. Initiations occur at tin beginning of each semester. Varied programs have been given this year under the leadership of Dorothy Perkins, chairman of the program committee. At Christmas the old Roman Saturnalia Festival was celebrated and a Latin class presented Plautus ' comedy, The Captives. At the February meeting the birthday of St. Valentine was observed. Guests were invited and the plav, Orpheus and Eurydice, was given. One Hundred mid Eighty-nine Press Club President Bailey Fessler Vice-President George Kistler Secretary-Treasurer Amey Greenfield Faculty Sponsor Evelyn Butler The Press Club, organized in October, 1922, in connection with the Journalism Department, is open to all students interested in news writ- ing. Its meetings are held every Monday morning at 9 o ' clock in Boom 16. During the last year the club has been addressed by some twenty- five prominent newspaper men and women of Indianapolis. The Press Club is deeply grateful to these busy journalists. It wishes to express also its appreciation to the courteous hospitality extended its members by the three Indianapolis papers whose plants they visited. The department of Journalism instituted at Butler in February, 1922, has steadily developed in strength and interest and has called forth many expressions from students and newspaper men of the hope that some provision may be made in the plans for the University at Fairview for the mechanical equipment necessary for a School of Journalism. A high standard of life and moral welfare is effected largely through four important factors, — home, church, school, and ncwispaper. For many years Butler has contributed to the first three; one of her newest ideals is to train students how best to direct the thought of the public hrough the medium of the daily press. Much has already been accomplished toward realizing a School of Journalism at Butler. Let us work for more courses and better equipment, — books, newspapers, periodicals, type-writers, copy desks, and an outfit for printing. 1)L= One Hundred and Ninety The Butler College Residence Faculty Adviso Evelyn Bi ' tler The only place on the campus where students are housed is in the old-fashioned, three-story brick building known to many generations of college students as The Dorm. The low, broad porch that extends across the front is an attractive place on pleasant days when chairs, swing, steps and balustrade are tilled with girls, from time immemorial known as the Dorm Angels. II is a fine place, too, to survey what is going on in many different directions about the campus: the Adminis- tration Building, the Old Gym, the engine-house and the cinder path are seldom without observers on a fine day from the Residence Look- Out. The Residence iris are the proud occasional possessors ol a (log named Campus and a cat that answers to the dignified title of Fair- view. Fairview was christened b Mildred, the justly famed Resi- dence cook. The occasion was a gala one on Valentine ' s Day. After the girls had done justice to one of her best dinners, Mildred advanced from the kitchen to the center of the dining room, hearing in one arm the newly acquired cat, adorned with a red satin necktie, and in the other a big box of new-made fudge, the prize for whoever could guess the name of the residence cat. The award went to Kaly Kinder. One Hundred and Ninety-ont French Club President Miriam Weir Vice-President Scott Clifford Secretary-Treasurer Katherine McClure Chairman of Program Committee. . . .Helen Pritchard The French Club was organized in November, 1921, under the sponsorship of Prof. Ratti, head of the Romance Language Department. In the fall of 1922, it was reorganized and new standards were set up. It is made up of about fifty French students who have an average of B, or above in French, and who desire a more practical acquaintance with the language than can be obtained in the classroom. The purpose of the club is to give students of French an opportunity to practice con- versational French and to enable them to become more familiar with the literature and customs of France. Meetings are held on the second Monday night of each month. The business meeting, the program, and the informal social hour which follows are carried on, in a large measure, in French style and only French is spoken. The club has given one French play. In January Twelfth Night, a French holiday, was celebrated, and in February the members ob- served the Mardi Gras. The meetings have been emphatically a success, and members and sponsors are enthusiastic in their co-opera- tion. They feel that there has been much benefit derived from the con- versation as well as much pleasure from the study of French customs and manners. u One Hundred and Ninety-two Pen-And-Pencil President Pail Brown Vice-President Rachel Campbell Secretary and Treasurer Elizabeth D avies Advisor Miss Butler Pen-and-Pcncil made its first appearance among campus organ- izations this year. As its name implies, its character and general pur- pose is similar to that of the old Writer ' s Clnh of last year. Member- ship consists of students enrolled in Miss Butler ' s course in the short- story and the one-act play. The purpose in founding such an organization was primarily to promote an active interest in literature, with particular emphasis in the field of the short-story and the one-act play. Its aim is to provide opportunity for a more intensive and intimate study of these forms of literature than is possible in the classroom alone. Miss Butler has arranged the work of the class room, however, so thai il forms the basis of interest on which the club works. The first semester is devoted entirely to the study of the short- story. The best artists in this field, from Edgar Allen Poe to (). Henry, are studied from the standpoint of structure and content. An important phase of the work is the writing of original stories. During the spring term the development of the one-act play is traced from the simple dialogue to the more complicated artistic production. The structure of the drama is studied and original dialogues and plays are written and read. II is tin ' plan of the club to have at least one guest-meeting each semester, to take (he form of an evening party. The program consists of original stories, stunts and plays of especial merit written by mem- bers of the club. One Hundred and Ninety-three President Herman Kuntz Vice-President Margaret Kluger Secretary Jean Patterson Treasurer Leona Kaley After being dormant for two years, the Butler Chemical Society was reorganized on Monday, November 29, 1922, by the students of the advanced Chemistry classes. Later, however, the students of the first-year classes were invited to become members also. Prof. Guy Howard Shadinger is the honorary president of the society. The purpose of the Butler Chemical Society is to acquaint the stu- dents with the application of chemistry in commerce and to discuss problems that have arisen in the field of this science. During the year several well-known physicians and scientists have spoken to the organization, and interesting excursions have been taken through some of the larger plants in the city. There have also been papers by various club members. In addition, the organization entertained the students with several social meetings at the Indianapolis Chamber of Commerce Building, and at the homes of alumni and members of the society. The standing executive committee consisted of the four officers, and the following persons: Myron Myers, Phaun Ferigo and Katherine Kinder. Hi g 21913 Ik One Hundred and Ninety-four J r=H[ The Mathematics Club President Joseph Moore Vice-President Doris Poe Secretary Dorothy Si-ienk Treasurer High Johnson Students of Butler who are especially interested in the study of mathematics have recognized the need and value of organizing and bringing together those who might have mutual interests. Therefore the Mathematics Club was formed. The purpose of the organization, in the main, is to exchange ideas and information relative to the development of the mathematical sciences, and incidentally to add a little more to the social element of College life. At the first meeting officers were elected who stand now as the permanent executives for the remaining part of the year. At this meeting, also, a committee was appointed to draw up a constitution and attend to any other details necessary to making the organization one of collegiate significance. Professor Johnson, head of this department, was asked to act as sponsor and adviser. All who are, or have been enrolled in college mathematics or some closely allied subject, are eligible lor membership. The programs which are presented at the meetings, held on the first Thursday of each month, include papers and comments by members of the club on mathematical topics, and talks by well known scholars in the field of mathematical research outside of our own college. II is believed thai in lime this organization which is still in its experimental stages, will prove to be of real value to the students and that the members may be able to derive something worth while from its meetings.

Weaver Treasurer Prof. Henry M. Gelston Phi Kappa Phi is a national honor society open to representatives of all departments of college and university work. The organziation has about 6,000 members with twenty-six chapters distributed in as many institutions in the United States. The following may be elected to membership : Resident members of the faculty; Resident graduate students; Un- dergraduates, who are within one year of graduation; Alumni, graduat- ing prior to the time of the formation of the Butler Chapter, who would have been eligible at the time of graduation. The following graduates of 1923 were admitted : Mrs. Mary Sandy Addleman, Earl R. Beckner, Dorothy Jane Black, Martha M. Borgstead, Henry P. Bruner, Laurel Gwyneth Cissna, Scott B. Clifford, William Durbin Day, Helen M. Doeppers, Caroline Dunn, James M. Hinder, Irma H. Gulley, Florence M. Hoover, Alice K. Koehne, Jean E. Patterson, Margaret M. Quinzoni, Sarah T.

One Hundred and Ninety-six Department of Public Speaking % Professor Hollo Anson Tallcott, head of the Department of Public Speaking and Coach o f Debate and Oratory at Butler Col- lege, has done much during his affiliation with the institution to develop an interest and create enthusiasm in this field. As Coach Page is the central figure in Butler ' s athletics, so is Professor Tallcott the guiding hand in other College activities. Dramatics, vaude- ville, oratory, debate and public speaking find their champion in this versatile, energe- tic man. The Butler oratorical contest was held in the College chapel on December 17. Those who entered were: Earl Daniels, DeVere McGinnis, Doyle Mullen, and Russell Rich- ardson. Mr. Mullen won the prize of $30 awarded by the College and represented Butler in the State Oratorical Contest at Crawfordsville in February, receiving fourth place among six contestants. Butler supports both men ' s and women ' s debating teams. The subject under debate this year is: Resolved, that the war debt due the United States from her Allies in the Great War should be can- celled.

It is the only men ' s honorary debating fraternity in the country. Its purpose is to encour- age among college men sincere oratory and effective public speaking. Only men who have participated in a minimum of two inter-collegiate debates or in one State oratorical contest are eligible for membership. The emblem is a watch charm shaped like a key, and the official magazine is The Speaker which is published monthly. Mr. William Hecker, of Irvington, a charter member, is national secretary and treasurer. The active membership of the local chapter consists of Russell Richardson, David Dunlap, Edward McGavran, Wendell Brown, Gerritt M. Rates, Harold Kealing, Henry Rruner, Earl Daniels, Robert Efroymson, Devere McGinnis and Prof. R. A. Tallcott. The annual dinner, initiation, and election of officers were included in the year ' s activities. One Hundred and Ninety-eight President Ilene Harryman Vice-President Margaret Cook Treasurer Ruth Craig (lamina chapter of Delta Phi was installed at Butler in June. 1921, with eight charter members. It is the only national honorary girls ' debating sorority and its purpose is to maintain a high standard in women ' s debating. Each candidate lor membership must have partici- pated in two inter-collegiate debates doing a creditable grade of work lor the college. Women ' s debating is new at Butler, this being only its fourth year, and Delta Phi is assisting in placing this activity on a higher and more permanent plane. National headquarters of Delta Phi are located at Seattle, Washington. One Hundred am! Xiucfx-niin IJ Dramatic Club President Scot Clifford Vice-President Helen Brattain Treasurer Rollin Davis Secretary Irma Dykes The Dramatic Club is one of the largest organizations on the campus. It has a two-fold purpose : to present plays of high standard and quality; and to study and create an interest in better drama. Try- outs are held each semester for students wishing to become members of the club. Professor Rollo A. Tallcott lias charge of these entrance ex- aminations, which arc of two kinds : first, for those who wish to take part in the productions; and second, for those who wish to go into the business or managing end of the work. This year the study section of the club has been especially active. Once a month an open meeting is held and plays are read and dis- cussed. One-act plays have had preference over their three- and four- act sisters. The Trimplet, by Stuart Walker, and The Little Man, by Galsworthy, were two of the plays given at these open meetings and they were received with much enthusiasm. Members of the organiza- tion who took part showed remarkable ability and promise. It is hoped that through these monthly meetings the prospective actors and ac- tresses may receive more experience and instruction than heretofore offered them. The club stages two major performances each year. These pro- ductions have been successful in the past and prospects are encouraging for the future. Each year finds the performances attracting larger and more enthusiastic audiences from the Indianapolis public. Tivo Hundred 1F=1 t Come Out of the Kitchen Three acts of a clever comedy-farce, produced by the Butler Dra- matic Club, were enjoyed by a large audience at the Murat Theater on December 17, 1922. Professor Tallcott coached the play, James Morgan was stage manager, Alice Archibald, property mistress, and William Cissna, business manager. Come Out of the Kitchen was the play in which Ruth Chatterton starred a few years ago and which brought her nation-wide applause. Miss Irma Dykes took this part and rivialed the famous star herself in her interpretation of the character of Olivia Dangerfield. Wendell Brown again distinguished himself as the handsome millionaire hero from the north and Scott Clifford admirably portrayed the part of a sentimental poet and gave the audience many a hearty laugh.

This club has, in the past, presented a number of delightful operettas. Last fall it became the census of opinion among the students of musical ability that an organization similar to that of the coeds be fostered among the men. The budding of this idea into full bloom fore- closed a Butler Men ' s Glee Club, with Glenn Keach as president and Arnold Spencer as director. At a joint meeting of the two clubs it was decided to combine the efforts of the two organizations in the presentation of an operetta. Under the leadership of Glenn Keach and Sarah Sisson, president of the Girls ' Glee Club, and under the direction of Professor Talcott and Mi Spencer, an opera was selected, resulting in the production in January of the Pirates of Penzance, a comic opera by Gilbert and Sullivan. After-thoughts on the opera revealed the fact that both clubs could work to better advantage and more definite results if combined into a single group. Accordingly, the Butler Opera Club was formulated. The purpose of the new club as set forth in its constitution is to present at least one opera each year, along with other musical productions, to provide music for College chapel exercises, to promote individual musi- cal ability of the students, to create an interest in and an appreciation of good music throughout the student body, and finally, to encourage in every way possible, a Department of Music in the curriculum of the greater Butler University.

Record breaking audiences at- tended both afternoon and evening shows. Psychic Thrills, presented by Mile. Margaret Heeker, was the first number on the program. Some astonishing and undreamed of facts about members of the student body and faculty were revealed by Mile, while gazing into the magic crystal. An educational sketch was next presented by Harry Hungate and Garrett Bates, and perhaps the least said about this stunt the better. A musical number by Esther Hungate, Dorothy Ryker, and Arnold Davis awoke the audience from their sweet dreams of peace into which the previous act had lulled them. Miss Ryker and Miss Hungate sang and danced in costume. Mr. Davis played a la Kreisler on the violin. The Hicksvillc Harmony Four gave one of the most unique acts on the bill. Morrison Davis, Stephen Badger, Raymond Ridge, and Joseph Gemilsparker were the illustrious members of the quartet. Moke Davis rendered a most pathetic and touching little song entitled Oh, How He Loves It. The quartet ' s interpretation of Butler Will Shine Tonight was so realistic that many people thought they were hearing the Butler Band. Mr. Badger sang some of the popular song bits, receiving an ovation from the audience. Kappa Kappa Gamma entertained the spectators with a pageant entitled Doll Land. Jean Howie and Pauline Ballwek reverted back to their childhood long enough to view the sights with juvenile eyes. While Betty Matthews thumped beautfiul melodies on the piano, the dolls were revealed. Helen Payne, as a soldier, was the first to appear. Her singing showed pitch and depth of tone that only Melba coidd hope to rival. Mildred Stockdale, the Butler Anna Pavlowa, almost ll=3 £ 2©ib ik w T-d ' o Hundred and Four 1 The Senior Vaudeville (Continued) started a riot when she appeared as a dancing doll, but the presence of Maurice Stephenson served to quell the mob. Katy Wilhelm, of the DcPauw chapter of K. K. G., created a sensation when she appeared as a coal-tar Jazz Baby. Justine Ilalliday and Dot Reynolds proved that they were out of place at Butler by their striking little-girl cos- tumes. The little sister act ended with the arrival of a grotesque animal which intensive study revealed to be a camel. Dick Mills and John Conley, blackfaced comedians, showed clever portrayal in their act in which they very naturally impersonated two dizzy dumbells. Kappa Alpha Tlieta, in The Campus Review, gave some intimate and heart-rending scenes of Campus life as seen at Butler. The act was vivid, colorful, and picturesque, with a bevy of pretty girls to lend charm to the scenes. Sara Francis Downs and Anna Mae Albershardt scored a hit by their impersonation of the campus lilly-dippers and consequently sent the Sigma Chis home disheartened. Dorcas Rock, the Freshman girl, Lois Wishard, the studious Girl, Avanelle Thorp, the Wicked Vamp, Pat Carver, the Athletic Girl, and Pauline Holmes, the Senior, represented the Campus types. Grace Hackle- man, Helen Myers, and Gladys Sudbrock put forth some real harmony in singing the School House Blues. The real thrill came when the College Beauty, Lorene Whitham, stepped before the footlights while the chorus sang The Ideal College Girl amid the applause of the entire audience. The climax of the show came in the last act. Sigma Chi presented that melodramatic tragedy, The Shooting of Dangerous Dan McGrew. Romey Bash as Dan, Howard Howe as the Stranger, and Tom- my Balchelor as the woman known as Lou, all gave wonderful por- trayals of their difficult parts. In fact, several husky Phi Delts sitting on the front row heaved soulful sighs when the lovely heroine sank to her knees to kiss the prostrate form of the stranger. 7 a o Hundred tnid Fh e f nB ' H l Hk — M K v- -p. _ ■ , ' J m t IJI Y.

McCallister The Sandwich Club, founded in 1913, is a group of men of Butler College and the College of Missions who have pledged their lives to definite Christian service. Most of its members are student preachers and student volunteers. The alumni of the organization are to be found in every quarter of the globe serving as missionaries and preachers in Tibet, China, India, South America, Africa, Mexico and the United States. The bi-weekly meetings preceded by a luncheon at the Campus Can- teen, promote the close fellowship of its members. The social activi- ties of the club arc restricted to two annual affairs, the banquet in the spring and a picnic at Buzzard ' s Roost at the opening of the fall term.

Wilder, Clark and T uckshury, real- ized the need for an organization that would unite them with all stu- dent missionaries in the country. Closer fellowship between the groups in different colleges, they felt, would strengthen their own resolve and lead others to join with them. They started the movement, laid its foundations and called the first conferences. From three members the organization has grown to great numbers. Croups of twenty and more arc found in all the Christian Colleges, and Butler is only one link in the great chain. Its purposes are to strengthen and keep active the missionary purpose of the members; to stimulate growth of Christian character; to consider the actual problems mission- aries are facing today; to help one another in getting adequate educa- tion for future work; to create foreign missionary interest on the campus, and to relate themselves as individual Christians to various campus activities. It strives to unify the efforts of individual Vol- unteers in bringing students to consider making the world Christian and determining to be foreign missionaries. It also develops among the Volunteers a deeper sense of responsibility toward their college work. In the Butler group there are twenty-three enrolled, with Roger Clark lor their leader and Freda Parr as secretary during the past year. From last year ' s group there arc now two traveling secretaries lor (he movement, Lyman Hoover, and Bex Hopper.

Beginning with five of last year ' s members, the organization increased to thirty men under the directorship of Lyndon A. Street, formerly of Miami University and the Cincinnati Conserva- tory of Music, and the management of Frederick Jaehne, ' 23. Jaehne organized the Band in the fall of 1921. The Band, in uniform, played at all the Butler home games this year and made trips with the team. The most eventful was the trip to Urbana when the Blue and White won from the Old Gold and Blue on the gridiron. The Butler Band, though still in its infancy, weathered the criticism its first year, and took encouragement the next. It faces the future with hope of becoming a useful institution of the greater Butler Uni- versitv. )L t fe- 1 C Tico Hundred and Twelve W The birthday of Butler was celebrated this year in the usual elabor- ate, fitting manner. Reverence for the founders of the College was beautifully portrayed in the Chapel services of the morning. The firsl appearance of the Senior class in traditional scholastic robes coupled with the colorful insignia of the faculty ' s degrees lent an atmosphere of dignity to the occasion. Miss Evelyn Butler told of a few reminiscences concerning her grandfather, Ovid Butler. Lucius B. Swift, of Indianapolis, was the principal speaker of the morning. The banquet, held in the Riley room of the Claypool Hotel, brought to a climax the events of a true memorial day. Respect for Butler ' s past, glory in the present, and hope for the future produced a Wonderful enthusiasm. Dr. Robert J. Aley, president, was toastmaster. The speakers wire Arthur V. Brown, Charles E. Coffin, Miss Caroline Dunn, as the stu- dent representatives, Wendell Brown, president of the Senior class. Rabbi Morris M. Feuerlicht, Professor Howard E. Jenson, and Dr. David M. Edwards, president of Earlham College. Dr. Allan B. Philpull pro- nounced the invocation. Miss Dunn told of the founding of Butler as a co-educational insti- tution. Wendell Brown pledged the loyalty of the members of the Senior class to the traditions of the College. Rabbi Feuerlicht praised Butler as a true fortress of genuine Americanism. Instead of stressing the fundamental things which unite men, lie said, some men seem to have set their hearts on the nonessential differences. Butler, however, leaches unity, not division. The Butler male quartet: William Picrcv. Myron and Frank Hop- per, and Kenneth Thorne, sang at the banquet.

With this purpose in view, the management of the school has insisted always that its corps of instructors shall have been not only graduates of recognized law schools, but successful practitioners of their profession. The profession of law is properly regarded as a learned profession, and only the most rigid and systematic instruction can prepare the stu- dent for a successful career in this very complex science. The large number of professional schools, the great increase in the number of students enrolled, the more stringent requirements for graduation and admission to the practice of law, and the need of a most comprehensive legal training are evidences of the great popularity of these schools. A successful law school will give to its students a comprehensive and thorough knowledge of legal principals, coupled with a thorough acquaintance with the details of professional work. This school insists upon a knowledge of the growth and expansion of our system of law, it offers special preparation in the elementary principles of both sub- stantive and remedial or adjective law; requiring frequent tests, both oral and written, it makes the student proficient in the expression of his knowledge of the law, and familiarizes him with the application of principles or rules to statements of facts. The three leading methods of instruction as now applied in the best law schools are instruction by lecture, text-book instruction, and the study of cases. The first, instruction by lectures, has the peculiar merit of being the means of giving the most vivid and forcible illustra- tions of legal principles; the text-book instruction furnishes the most accessible and convenient means of study; and the study of leading cases gives the best training in legal reasoning. The course of study covers a period of three years of thirty-five weeks each, with a minimum of twelve hours of recitations per week to each class, exclusive of vacations, and the students are divided into three classes, each class having separate and distinct instruction throughout the course. Since the organization of the school, about fifteen hundred stu- dents have graduated and a third as many more have received partial training under its tutelage. This large body of alumni has not only held positions of high administrative, legislative and judicial respon- sibility, but has maintained an unusually hgh standing in the practce of the profession of law.

EEEEDC Two Hundred and Twenty-four The class of li 2. ' 5 holds a unique record in many respects. We are Hit ' pivol upon whirh the old order changed and gave place to the new. It lias witnessed the transition period when the course was raised from two to three years and has heralded the new era of a four year course, with two years preparatory, which starts in 1925. In the fall of 1920, we first met and became acquainted with one another and with Dean Rohbach, under whose guidance we began our search for more commodious quarters. In our search for a school home we followed Dean Hohhach to the Butler campus, where wte remained for our first term. Butler halls being crowded with their own students. it was found necessary to make a change, so we removed to the old Indiana University Medical building, where we remained until the end of the first year. The following year school opened in its own build- ing at the present location. Yc have seen the affiliation with Butler College and the closer union of the colleges comprising the University of Indianapolis. Our greatest regret is, that this class will not be there when Butler College moves into her new home at Fairview. We were the first to enjoy many new courses which have been added to our curiculum. the most notable of these being the eight weeks ' course on Forensic Psychiatry, given by Dr. Bahr at the Central Indiana Hospital for the Insane. This is the only school in the world which now has such a course and writers of all nations are discussing it. As to our more personal affairs, we have worked and we have played. While our professors lost no sleep in keeping abreast of our advance, neither were we drones. More than half the class are already practicing and we have even been represented in the late session of the legislature. Realizing the importance of a foundation of theory, we have worked accordingly, and believe we are prepared to tackle the practice side and receive our knocks and our rewards. We are one of the smallest classes in the history of the school and under the circumstances we are proud of it. Our class entered school the year following the great war and every man who was of fighting age bad been in uniform. Our class disregarded the high wages of that year, just as it weathered the business depression of the following year, which forced so many men out of school. We had determined to re- ceive our LL. B. and nothing could swerve us from that resolution. It is with deep regret that we now part from the sacred walls of class rooms where we have learned to love our laws, our country, and our fellow men. We will soon be on our life long journey to reach the final goal of success, following the footsteps of those who have pre- ceded us. in striving to reach the same goal. Many of us will not come in the same daily contact in the future that we have in the past; many of us may never meet again, but il can always be remembered that the close friendships created here will never be forgotten. Let us hope that our judgment throughout lilt 1 will be as fair and honest as the judgment that will be dealt to us on the day when we shall all meel again. Let the world know where we are, by simply considering where we ought to be, and not expect to hear from us but hear of US. Ambitions? Being a good lawyer, which means a valuable citizen, is the least that will satisfy any of us. Beyond thai there is the While House. Who can tell ' . ' Two Hundred and Twenty-five GLENN A. HOWARD E.

Liston Two Hundred and Tzi enf -si.v The opening of the 11122-23 year of The Indiana Law School found the members of the Junior class hack from their vacation in full num- ber, glad to relinquish the title Freshman and assume that of Junior, and eager to learn just what Mr. Mechem had to say on Agency, Mr. Greenleaf, on Evidence, and Mr. Ogden on Bills and Notes, and to once more help Mr. Edwards, Law Librarian, keep the sacred volumes of Blackstone free from dust. Although the summer had contained happy events for all of the students, only two members, Mr. Beeler and Mr. Markland, heard Wedding Belles. On December 20, President Weesner called the first class meeting of the year for the purpose of electing officers for the 1922-23 year. Our Christmas vacation came, and it certainly does seem that va- cations have a strange influence upon the members of the Junior class, in that tiny desire to apply their theoretical knowledge of the Marriage Contract to practical use, for upon the return date from this vacation, it was learned, and there were also public notices of the fact in the daily newspapers, that two certain young ladies had become Mrs. John Anderson Scudder, and Mrs. Rae W. Powell. This now makes the Junior class a ! S per cent married men ' s class; one per cent, represent- ing the feminine minority in the class. Mary Gisella Gondos and Bess Robbins, and the other per cent, representing those pledged to bachelor- hood. However, Mr. Ralph Bennett is not to he included in either of these groups as we have no other member so greatly learned in the subject of Alimony. With the months of June. July and August in which to recuperate from Final Examinations, it is the belief of every member of the Junior Class, that next year. Indiana Law School will well hi ' proud of its Senior Class.

I Two Hundred and Twenty-eight Freshman Class History The Freshman Class met for the first time on September 20. 1922, for the purpose of being initialed into the mysteries of Chitty, Coke, and Blackstone. Alter an outline of the work for the coming year and some advice about the pitfalls to be avoided by future Supreme Court Justices the class spent the rest of the day purchasing ponderous volumes that fairly radiated legal lore. In a short while the class had become ac- quainted with the instructors and with the methods of instruction and was spending many hours among the dusty volumes of the libraries. The first feeling of class consciousness came with the approach of class elections when the excitement ran to fever heal. Alter the election the class settled down to hard work, with a trip to the Insane Hospital and Judge Anderson ' s Court to vary the monotony. II would be unfair and unwise to say the legal profession, enticing as il is. lias no stumbling blocks. Those who seek its pleasures and its benefits must likewise meet its difficulties. Over the same road the sages of the profession have traveled and it shall be our aim when we become graduates and are practicing our profession to make our contribution of service in smoothing (he load which those who follow must travel. The class closes ils first year with practically all those who entered 1 nd il is their earnest wish that every member will be back in line next year and continue together a pilgrimage mixed with hard and patient work, tolerance, and lasting friendship.

Victor Ahrens was elected captain and Fred F. Falck manager for the ensuing year and games were scheduled. As the season advanced the team encountered some real opposition by meeting in combat some of the best teams in the State, such as Indiana State Normal, Franklin College, JYluncie State Normal, together with many others.

Doc Willis tailed to say, Obviously, I-ther one is correct? All the Profs were like Zapf? Some would trim Dassel ' s bobbed hair? Somebody would agree with Schaefer? Charley Pope would write a book of legal words and phrases? Updike failed to say, For the reason — — ? Prof. Zapf: Now Mr. Ahrens, you may give us the next case, make it real snappy. Ahrens ( ' 23) : No response. Prof. Zapf: Oh ! ! I guess I took all the snap out of Snappy. Prof. Willis: Now Mr. Jay, you arc a son of a doctor, give us the symptoms of Arterio-sclerosis.

Falck ( ' 23) : Somebody give me a cigarette, I have had lumbago for the last (wo weeks and can ' t stoop over to pick anything up. George Cowan and Dassel had been to a party and were returning in George ' s Flivver. Refreshments had been plentiful and the Ford was hitting both sides of the road. George! said Dassel. If you don ' t watch your step you ' ll drive us iii the ditch. Drive in the ditch? said George, surprised. Why, 1 thought you were driving. Prof. Zapf: Now we will he especially favored by having Mr. Speakc give us the case ' The Betsey, ' I am sure he is well prepared as there is a woman involved. Falck ( ' 2:3) : Haw! Haw! Haw!

Prof. Fulton: Now Mr. Shusler, after having discussed this case for past half hour and every one understands it thoroughly, you may briefly give us the point involved. Shusler ( ' 23) : Why.

From hovel and collage to campus or palace the Rag, the Rone, and the Hank of Hair hold sway — Even at Butler! I Scene: The parlor of the Heava Psi Sorority House. Time: So-called study hour of the sisters, somewhere between din- ner-time and date-time. PERSONS Barbara (Babs) Oreenlow, mid-year Freshman at Butler -very fresh. Dorothy (Dot) Brown, previously the Heava Psi vamp. Now she shares the honors witli Babs. Marian Greenbird, nearest approach to a grind of which the Heava Psi ' s can boast. Moses Garrett, a bashful, good-looking, studious athlete. Prof. Splutterfuss, the obliging Professor of something at Butler. Prof. Dumps, whose figure and disposition suit his name. Pat, Betty, Jo, Flo, Sue, etc. — Heava Psi girls. Bashful Men to Match The curtain rises on a group of girls, some of whom are clustered about the piano, which is pounding out an accompaniment to a many- voiced rendition of the chorus of If You Don ' t See Mama Every Night, You Can ' t See Mama at All. Others swaying in a row on a leather divan, join in the song with wild abandon. All are watching the sinuous, bobbed haired figure of Babs, which is swaying and gyrating in the center of the floor. At certain seemingly propitious measures of the syncopated rythm, the dancing beauty, for such she is nothing else but. ceases progressive motion and gives a realistic imitation of an aspen sapling in a Kansas zephyr. These tremulous interludes are usually culminated by a snappy punt delivered to an imaginary football — a punt which would do credit to Old Goldentoe himself. Through a door, rear center, a pair of horn-rimmed spectacles suddenly appear, followed by the frantic and frowning countenance of Marian Greenbird. From the moving lips, the expression and the exasperated gestures, it is evident that an indignant protest again st the din is being registered, but it is epiite inaudible. Presently with a final flourish and punt. Babs drops, exhausted, into the laps of the girls on the divan, and the breath- less musicians cease. There is a round of applause. Pat (gasping for breath) Great stuff, Babs! Talk about Isadora Duncan -she ' s a flivver beside you! Marian (seizing the opportunity to he heard) Will! I wish you girls would stop this terrible racket! I ' m going out tonight, and I ' ve go! to Two Hundred and Sixty-seven u study that history first! Besides this is study hour anyway! If we ' d live up to the house rules you ' d all he fined every night! Dot : Oh, forget that history, Matty. You take your studies too seriously. Just make a few goo-goo eyes at old Exwizy and he ' ll never know whether you ' ve got your lessons or not! Marian: (Disdainfully) Hmmm! You don ' t know that Old Prof, as well as I do! Cleopatra, herself, couldn ' t get a rise out of him! Dot: Well, I ' ll bet I could— if I got him alone, anyway. Why don ' t you try it, Mat? Coax him out to the summer house some nice morning and pet him up a bit — then you ' ll never have to study your history any more. Marian: (scandalized) Why he ' s a married man! Babs : Ha! Ha! Ha! (mockingly) He ' s a married man! What ' s the cliff? Maybe I haven ' t been around here as long as the rest of you girls but I bet I can handle any old professor you ' ve got here at Butler! I may look young and innocent but I know a few things when it comes to managing men! They never come too old or too young for me! Jo : Babs sure does make ' em stare ! She ' s got half the goofs in school trailing her already! Prof. Chilly ' s eating out of her hand, too. I ' ll bet she gets an A in botany! Betty : Well, say, I ' ll bet I know a fellow you can ' t vamp, Babs. He ' s right here in Butler, too, and he ' s not a professor either. Babs: Who? Lead me to ' im! Bettv: Why Moses Garrett. (Dismal groans arise). Pat: ' Oh, that grind! Flo: All he cares about is books and basketball! Sue: Why he thinks girls were made just to hang dresses on! Jo : No he doesn ' t, Susie. He doesn ' t think about girls at all — he doesn ' t even know there are such animals! Betty: Well, I don ' t know what he thinks, but he ' s good-looking-- and he ' s immune, too. Dot knows — for she tried it! Dot: Yep, he ' s a flat tire. I ' ll admit that my system fails on him. Babs : Well, say — I ' d like to meet this man — Moses what ' s his name ! Betty : I don ' t know how you ' ll ever manage it unless you pay him a personal call or get in the gym when the team practices. Moses doesn ' t loaf around under the clock like most of Butler ' s population. Dot: We might give another open house. Sue : Why he wouldn ' t come if we did! Babs : Give him an express invitation. Pat: Oh, that wouldn ' t do any good! Marian (scpiealing) Oh, I ' ll tell you! Let ' s entertain for all the Butler grinds and call it a literary discussion group. We can get Prof. Splutterfuss to tell ' em they have to come. Flo: That ' s the dope! Then Babs can get a good chance at him! Dot: We ought to invite all the hard-boiled professors, too — they need some attention. Pat: I ' ll say they do! Did you girls hear that old Dumps condi- tioned Henry Brunei - . He has to take a make-up this week, and if he fails he ' ll be put off the team! All: What? Jo: Poor Henry! Too much dates and basketball! Dot: Say be sure to invite Prof. Dumps to the literary spree. I ' ll work on him a little and try to save poor Henry. Two Hundred and Sixty-eight Sue: By Jinks, that ' s a good stunt! Let ' s dope out the invitations i ight away. Marian: I ' ve got it almost all thought out. We ' ll call it the Del- phian Literary Society and get Prof. Splutterfuss to give out the invita- tions, himself] Now let ' s get the date settled. Pat: How about Thursday? (All assent). Marian: Goody! I ' ll write out a sample now and then we can start the pledges copying them. Curtain II Scene : The same. Time: The following Thursday evening. The initial meeting of the Delphian Literary Society is in full swing. Every Heava Psi is bloomed out in her best hand-painted scenery, ready to do her bit toward a greater Butler. Sprinkled about the circle ol femininity are the luckless victims. Male feet and male hands are placed verv much in evidence, and also evidently very much displaced at least in the minds of their owners. Babs already has pounced upon Moses Garrett, and Dot sits beside the erstwhile gloomy Prof. Dumps. Prof. Splutterfuss, a podgy little red-faced man with a Van Dyke beard is addressing the circle from its center, as the ostensible founder and sponsor of the order. Prof. Splutterfuss: (concluding bis speech). And thus, my dear friends and students, came into being our Delphian Literary Society. All the girls (gasping): What! The company strolls from the stage, c, with the exception ol Halts, and her unwilling satellite. They linger in the rear. Babs: I don ' t want any refreshments. Do you. Mr. darrcll. Moses (flushed and uncertain): Why-er-uh-no 1 don I believe I do. . .. Babs: You ' re sort of— well, distinguished looking. You re nol silly-slushy looking like some of these tea-hounds here at Butler ' Silence from Moses, who is in dire distress. Babs (with another wicked glance): Moses, did you ever kiss a girl? Moses: No-no-er-thal is -well, yes once. Babs: You did? Who was she: Do 1 know her? Moses: N-no, she was my cousin. Babs: Oh! Did you— er— like it? Moses (grinning timidly) : Well- no she wasn t such a pretty gir J as you are. . . ' Babs (leaning almost imperceptibly toward him): Why, Mose, you ' re flattering me! (The full battery is turned on poor Moses now. He is doomed and powerless). Moses (nervously uncertain ol himself): No. I in not er Habs. t mean il. . „ ,. ... Babs (edging closer) : Mose, that ' s awfully sweet ol you to say that about me. (Somehow Moses ' arm has extended itself along the back of their seat behind Babs). Moses (a little more confidently) : Babs, you re the most heaulilul irl in Butler ' . i 4i IL913 fc Two Hundred and Sixty-nine Babs (snuggling closer) : Oh, Mose, you dear! Moses (firmly) : I mean it, too! You ' re — you ' re the most beautiful girl in the world! Babs cannot come closer, so she does the next best thing — she reaches up and strokes his hair. Moses ' downfall is complete. Although his arm trembles it now holds Babs tightly. Slowly their lips meet. Just then from the hall comes the voice of Dot. Dot: Well, here we are, Prof. Dumps, almost back where we started. What do you think of our home? Prof. Dumps (Can this be the Professor ' s voice?) : It ' s fine, Miss Dorothy, very fine ! They enter hand in hand. Moses and Babs separate slightly. Dot : Oh, hello, Babs — and Mose ! I ' ve been showing Prof. Dumps our house. He ' s such a dear, Babs! (She squeezes the professor ' s hand). And he ' s promised not to flunk Henry Bruner after all! (Archly). Haven ' t you, Prof. Dumps? Curtain EPILOGUE A male chorus in blue and white shawl collared sweaters, white trousers, and blue round-caps dances before the curtain, singing: Ashes to ashes And dust to dust, If Camels don ' t get you, The women must — Bah — rah — rah, rah, rah — Bah for the blue and white (repeat).

He appreciates the fact that Meredith Nicholson, William Hershell, William Forsyth, Kin Hubbard, Thomas Hibben and Charles Kuhn (not to mention honored alumni whose works are known to fame) are commercial names in the field of letters and art. Their contributions have given an added impetus to the staff to make the Drift this year worthy of their interest. Not less does the executive appreciate the co-operation of his staff. He has called constantly on the resources and energies of his friends with the imperialism that woidd have tested the patience of Grisilda and now he would like to express in a simple word of praise his appre- ciation of their generous response. It is not with regret that he closes this edition but rather in the hope that it will serve its purpose as a meager record of a significant Butler vear. Dr=D Tzvo Hundred and Seventy-two
