REFERENCE MATERIAL NOT TO BE TAKEN FROM THIS ROOM UNIVERSITY 70 „ . iJKfc BUTLER UNIVERSITY INDIANAPOLIS, INDIANA DRIFT 1946 -ri;? H During their four years at Butler Uni- versity, students accumulate many mem- ories of their college life which in later years become very dear to them. The 946 DRIFT presents a pictorial collection of these memories that will last through the years and help to recall those joyous, yst serious, days of 1945-46. mum C ti -HU ik Ae iAejh Then — fhe veterans of World War II came to Butler in the Spring semester giv- ing new meaning to classes and activities. They studied and went through their first exams. They participated in the class dances and queen elections, Founders ' Day, the Fairview Frolics, the W.S.S.F. Drive, the Spring Sing, Honor Day, and graduation. COLL World War II ended in 1945, and with this administration, faculty, and students of Butler University were able to look back proudly at four years of maintaining Butler ' s high standards and traditions and to look ahead to exp. further achievement with a rgf ed vigor. DR. MAURICE O. ROSS, President ADMINISTRATION After successfully guiding Butler University through the difficult years of World War II and the primary period of peacetime adjustment, Dr. Maurice O. Ross, President of Butler University since 1942, can look ahead to Butler ' s peacetime expansion program. This year Dr. Ross has been instrumental in adding the fifth and sixth colleges to the University; these are the University College which will enable the University to give to its students in their freshman and sophomore years a well-rounded, general education leading to the specialized and pre-professional courses of the junior and senior years, and the College of Pharmacy purchased from the Indianapolis College of Pharmacy in October, 1945, which will continue and broaden pharmaceutical education through the wide scope of educational facili- ties on the Butler Compus. Under the active leadership of Dr. Ross, Butler Uni- versity will in the near future resume its pre-war status; expanding and enlarging upon this to accommodate an increased enrollment of students, many of whom are veterans of World War II; in the advancement of the curriculum of the University; and to place Into operation the numerous building plans retarded by war. Dr. Ross Isaving Jordan Hall. Dr. Ross attending fall open hour.es Hilton U. Brown, one of Bu+ler University ' s oldest, living alumni, is president of its Board of Directors. A member of the class of 1880, Mr. Brown ' s life-long in- terest in Butler University has been instrumental in its growth and expansion from a college to a university embodying six colleges. In serving his alma mater for over sixty years as a member and later as president of the Board of Directors, he has endeared himself to thousands of Butler alumni. Mr. Brown can quite often be seen on the campus of Butler University talcing an active interest in the school from which he received his A. B. and A. M. degrees. In 1935 the honorary LL. D. degree was conferred upon Mr. Brown. A first citizen of Indianapolis, Mr. Brown is regarded with pride, gratitude, and high esteem by his associates, friends, and the student body of Butler University. HILTON U. BROWN JOHN W. ATHERTON John W. Atherton, a member of the class of 1900, has been a member of the Board of Directors as well as financial secretary and secretary-treasurer of Butler Uni- versity since 1920. Under Mr. Atherton ' s capable management the endowment of Butler University has been increased from $600,000 to in excess of $7,000,000. Besides being an ardent supporter of Butler Univer- sity, Mr. Atherton has been one of the leading citizens of Indianapolis and the State of Indiana. Plans for the post-war future of Indianapolis have been made by the City Plan Commission headed by Mr. Atherton, who also is president of the Board of Zoning Appeals of Indian- apolis. In 1940 he was elected a State Senator in the Legislature and was reelected in 1944. A loyal member of Delta tau Delta Fraternity, Mr. Atherton has been a member of the Columbia Club, the Indianapolis Rotary Club, the Central Christian Church, and the Council for Central Indiana Boy Scouts.

ZUMPFE Indianapolis, Indiana The Board of Directors of Butler University entered upon a post-war program of expansion for the University in the year 1945-46. In October, 1945, through the endeavor of the Board the Indianapolis College of Phar- macy was purchased and became the sixth college to be located on the Butler campus. The college is to be moved from downtown Indianapolis to the Fairview cam- pus as soon as the new College of Pharmacy and Related Sciences building is completed. Becoming effective on February I, 1946, The George J. Marott Educational Foundation was estab- lished at Butler University by a trust gift to the Univer- sity from the late Mr. George J. Marott, Indianapolis business man and philanthropist. The Foundation is designated as an aid to worthy young people who de- sire to pursue higher education at Butler, but are in need of financial assistance.

NILES The College of Pharmacy of Dutlcr Uni- versity was established in 1945 by merger with the Indianapolis College of Pharmacy. The latter institution had been in operation obout thirty-five years, and had played a prominent part in the development of phar- maceuticol education. Its graduates hold po- sitions of distinction in the field of pharmacy in Indiana and other states. MICHENER JEFFRIES HARWOOD ROGOFSKY COLLEGE OF The courses of instruction in the college of pharmacy not only prepares graduates to operate drug stores, but also fit them for other lines of pharmaceutical activity; to become hospital pharmacists; to enter the wholesale drug field; in the laboratories of pharmaceutical, chemical, biological and cosmetic industries; as analysts and in- spectors for health boards and other government agencies. Plans for the College of Pharmacy call for the erection of a new building for Pharmacy and Related Sciences on the Butler campus at the earliest possible date; the estimated cost is $400,000.00. For the present, the larger part of the work in phar- macy courses is being given in the buildings at 800 East Market Street. Members of the faculty of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences are also giving instruction in some courses there. A number of pharmacy students are attending regular classes on the Butler campus at Sunset Avenue. The College of Pharmacy holds membership in the American Association of Col- leges of Pharmacy and is accredited by the American Council on Pharmaceutical Education. Edward H. Niles is Dean of the College of Pharmacy and other faculty members are: Arthur A. Harwood, Dufae W. Lee, N. Lindley Michener, Sampson F. Jeffries, Paul W. Oren, Robert L. Prettyman, Edward J. Rogofsky, and Edward E. Swanson. Ardin E. Hays and George A. Schumacher conduct regular classes at the Market Street division. ANTONIDES MAY i PRETTYMAN LEE P HAR MAC y DEAN RATTI The College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, the oldest school within Butler University, was estab- lished with the founding of this university in 1855.

COLLEGE OF The general objective of the College of Liberal Arts and Sclonces is to provide a training of the nnind that is of fundamental value in every wajli of life and essential to the highest aspirations of mankind. More specifically, in such a training the student follows a planned curriculum toward a major field which contains certain necessary basic elements comprising an interpretation of human experience as found in language, literature, and the Fine Arts, use of the scientific method of procedure in the acqui- sition of knowledge, exact and systematic thinking, moral and ethical evaluation of human activity, broad factual knowledge of the world, centered about some special interest of the student, and an opportunity for creative effort. The student with the expert guidance of a professor selects a major field leading to a profession, career, or any occupation of various kinds. In order to meet the needs of all students the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences is divided into a lower and upper division. Completion of the lower division or two-year standardized course giving the student a broad, general education permits either the conferring of the title of Associate of Arts, or Associate of Science; entrance into a professional course; or entrance into the upper division. The upper division gives the student the opportunity to do his specialized work leading to the baccalaureate degrees of Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of Science, or Bachelor of Arts with a Major in Music. The graduate degrees conferred are the Master of Arts and the Master of Science. Fisher, Donart, Stull, Harrison, Welling, SIsson, Lewis, Moore, Stewart, Wesenberg, Potzger, Palmer.

The College of Education has as its major purpose the education of competent teachers, supervisors, and ad- ministrators for positions in kindergartens, elementary schools, and junior and senior high schools. Instruction in the College of Education is organized into seven de- partments: elementary education, (including kindergar- ten); secondary education; physical education; educa- tional psychology; administration; history and philosophy of education; and special education. In preparation for the teaching profession the stu- dent is expected to have a broad, general education, intensive work in the subjects to be taught, specialized training in professional courses introducing the student to the problems of teaching, and a program of supervised student teaching in the Indianapolis Public Schools in the senior year. Students who expect to qualify for an Indi- ana teacher ' s certificate may complete the requirements for the certificate and at the same time complete the re- quirements for the Bachelor of Science degree with a major in elementary, secondary, or physical education. Students interested in teaching public school music may work toward the Bachelor of Music in Music Education degree which is conferred jointly by Butler University and the Arthur Jordan Conservatory of Music. Students in- terested in teaching art may work toward the Bachelor of Art in Art Education degree which is conferred jointly by Butler University and the John Herron Art Institute. Graduate students may secure the degree of Master of Science in Education and at the same time complete the requirements for administrative licenses.

Bridenstine the college is entering the period of its greatest activity with the return of the many veterans of World War II who are interested in the field of busi- ness. The courses offered in the College of Business Ad- ministration are designed to provide training in the methods, techniques, and principles underlying modern business and journalism, as a foundation for careers in these fields. A further and equally important objective is to equip students with a knowledge and understanding of the changing and developing character of economic society and the responsibilities that are laid upon edu- cated men and women engaged in economic and jour- nalistic activity. DEAN M. O. ROSS Mehr, Steeg, Shors, Bomeli, Lamar, Bridenstine, Ross, Efroynnson. COLLEGE OF Lewis, Hunter, Peterson, Richardson, Jones.

Under the guidance of Dr. Mehr, Butler University has become one of the major schools in the field of life insurance training. The American United Life Insurance Company of Indianapolis has established an annual scholarship fund to be divided equally between Butler University and Indiana University. Through this scholarship, assistance and encouragement will be given to worthy students of at least junior standing, who are majoring in life insurance and interested and qualified to enter the marketing and service branch of the life insurance business. The staff of the department of Journalism is under the guidance of Asst.

BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION Kershner, Andry, The School of Religion established in 1924 and situated in its new, graceful Georgian building, which was built in 1942 overlooking the campus, became the second college of Butler University. The School of Religion is under the energetic guidance of Dean O. L. Shelton and taught by a scholarly faculty experienced in the fields of the ministry. A graduate institution and an accredited member of the American Association of Theological Schools, the primary purpose is to train candidates for the ministry and for allied forms of religious service. The curricula of the school, also cultural in value, furnishes to students the knowledge and technique for productive work in the fields of pastoral, evangelistic, educational, missionary ministry, and in the vocations of social service. The School of Religion is one of the supporting institutions of the American Schools of Oriental Research in Jerusalem and Baghdad. These schools, supported by about fifty leading universities and colleges in America, have been founded to serve serious and qualified students who wish to study in the Near East. COLLEGE OF Holmes, Shelton, Nakarai, Walker Smith, Burdin, Cory. The deepening and broadening of the religious life of those who attend the school is a consideration of the greatest importance. Daily devotional services are held in Sweeney Chapel. These are conducted by professors, students and visiting ministers. These services are a vital part of the life of the School community. A series of annual lectureships has been established which invites two outstanding ministers for a series of lectures each year, one in the autumn and another in the spring contributing greatly to the enrichment of the School community. RELIGION With the return of veterans of World War II to school, Dr. C. R. Maxam, genial registrar of Butler University, has many problems to solve. As chairman of the Veterans ' Admin- istration Council it is the job of Dr. Maxam and his committee to interview each incom- ing veteran student. Also, Dr. Maxam serves as director of admissions who passes on the high school and college credits of all students and as director of placement who finds po- sitions in the teaching profession and the busi- ness world for graduating Butler studnts. Butler University runs smoothly through the efforts of many capable administrators among whom is Arthur S. Kendall, Bursar of the University. As bursar, Mr. Kendall handles the big jobs of purchasing agent for Butler, bookstore manager, director of the post office, and business manager of athletics. Recognizing the need of the student body for a place in which to spend its free time, Mr. Kendall has supported and supervised the reestablishment of the Campus Club. Also, Mr. Kendall helps to carry the worries of the DRIFT as its financial advisor. The energetic Butler Alumni program is under the direction of George A. Schu- macher who has been alumni secretary since 1937. Through his efforts the active alumni membership has been greatly increased and organized into alumni clubs. Each summer the alumni office contacts each one of the Butler graduates by mail. Mr. Schumacher edits the monthly BUTLER ALUMNUS which carries alumni news and news of the school. Student promotion and contact which in- volves the preparation of literature to be mailed to high school seniors, contacting these people and answering their inquiries concern- ing Butler University h handled by Mr. Schumacher. Not only is Mr. Schumacher alumni secre- tary, but he is also an asssistant professor of English instructing classes at the College of Pharmacy. From April, 1942, to March, 1945, Mr. Schumacher was on leave of absence from Butler in order to serve in the Air Force as an administrative officer. AD M I N I S w The titlei Director of the Evening Division and Sunn- mer Sessions, Associate Professor of Education, and Dir- ector of the Student Welfare Agency all belong to Dr. George F. Leonard.

Maxam •47 This year ' s Junior Class experienced, along with the rest of the school, the general rejuvenation that has occurred at Butler due to the ending of the war and the return of many students from the various branches of the service. During their Freshman and Sophomore years the Juniors went through one of the school ' s most difficult periods. But those difficulties were surmounted and the foundations of Butler traditions and campus life are as solid as ever. The Junior Prom was the outstanding social event of the year. It was held March 30, in the Egyptian Room of the Murat Temple. Barbara Seeger, Kappa Kappa Gamma, ruled as this year ' s queen. The credit for the organization and planning that made the dance such a great success goes to Dean Neeriemer and all the committee chairmen and members who worked under his direction. As next year ' s Big Guns the members of the class can be expected to carry on with the same high spirit that brought them througn their Freshman and Sophomore years. Russell Miller was president of the class; Ann Clem, vice-president; Betty Hearne, Secretary; Bev Maxam, treasurer; Dean Neeriemer, Prom chairman. These officers gave the necessary leadership to a cooperative class with the result that the members of the Junior class can feel cer- tain that their ' s was a job well done — one that will add another stone to the building of the great tradition of service to their school that previous Junior classes have handed down.

SOPHOMORE CLASS Sophomore Officers; Earl O ' Brlan Velma Justus Betty Ferguson John Carmack James Dirlam Once again the world is at peace and we are happy to see our -former Butler students returning to participate in campus activities. The Sophomore Class has made every effort to help these students in becoming more familiar with campus lite. By encouraging student interest we have been successful in aiding Butler to maintain its pre-war standards. The sophomores were extremely sorry that the traditional Freshman-Sophomore fight was not held this year. The cancellation of this event was only one of the many adjustments which Butler students have willingly made during the war years. We ot the Sophomore Class feel certain that in the future this annual battle will not be discarded. Next year we are looking forward to a breath-taking Rhinie fight. The annual Sophomore Cotillion was held at the Columbia Club on February 2. Music was provided by Max Wilson and his orchestra. Under the capable guidance of chairman John Carmack the dance was a great success. Irene Sims, Pi Beta Phi, was Sophomore Sweetheart of 1946. Members of her court were Kathie Klee, Alpha Chi Omega; Ruth Saddy, Kappa Alpha Theta; Jackie Loser, Delta Gamma; Harriet Lewis, Delta Delta Delta; Irma Blosser, Butler Independent Association; Shirley Haugh, Zeta Tau Alpha; Maxine Brock, Woman ' s Residence Hall; Helen Huff, Kappa Kappa Gamma; and Wilma Rooker, Trianon. Officers of the class of ' 48 have been James Dirlam, president; Betty Ferguson, vice-president; Velma Justus, secretary; and Earl O ' Brian, treasurer.

With the many veterans returning it was only natural that the president of the Freshman Class should be a former service man, and Charles Millet was elected president by his fellow stu- dents. Other officers included Barbara Larson, vice-president; Barbara Green, sec- retary; and Victor Lomax, treasurer. Soon after elections preparations for the Freshman Rose Dance were begun. Jack Kesler was selected as cnairman of the dance, and his committee chairmen were Jack Boston, tickets; Jacqueline Smith, decorations; Don Payne, hall; Zenna Car- michael, publicity; Charles Bastin, trophy; and James Nay, band. The formal affair was held January II, 1946, in the Tavertine Room of the Hotel Lincoln and proved to be a great success. Music was provided by Max Wilson and his orchestra. Bebita Corya, Alpha Chi Omega, was crowned queen of the eighteenth annual Freshman Rose Dance, and she was presented with a trophy and a bouquet and crown of American Beauty roses by the president of the class. Members of her court were Georgia Pitcher, Kappa Kappa Gamma; Joyce Falvey, Women ' s Residence Hall; Jeanne Gaston, Delta Delta Delta; Katie Mclntyre, Kappa Alpha Theta; Esther Kremer, Trianon; Virginia Mitchener, Zeta Tau Alpha; Joan Opperman, Butler Inde- pendent Association; Gloria Stevens, Pi Beta Phi; and Pat Wilkins, Delta Gamma. 49 FRESHMEN AICHELE, TED EUGENE ALBERTIN, MARTHA LOUISE ALLEN, CAROLA JEANNE ANDERSON, WALTER HUGH AN DREWS, ALICE JANE ARMSTRONG, EDWIN JOSEPH ARMSTRONG, ELEANOR MAY ARTER, RICHARD J.

MSS, or Manuscripts, is the English department publication pub- lished four times a year. It is divided into freshman and upper class sections, each containing short stories, essays, and poetry. The freshman section is representative of all the classes, while the up- per class section contains the best material submitted from the department. The first issue, edited by the senior staff and Rosemary Haviland, editor-in-chief, appeared in November. Freshman staff members were appointed from their respective English sections early in December, and they edited their section of the magazine for the next three issues. Dr. Allegra Stewart and Mrs. Alice Wesenberg are the sponsors of this publication. M S S i BUTLER Although the Collegian underwent many hardships dur- ing the war, it came through admirably and began its fifty- eighth year with renewed assurance that better things were to come. The manpower shortage was the chief dif- ficulty to overcome, but it didn ' t take long for the ladies to prove that the men weren ' t the only ones who could put out a paper — and a good one! Women still out-num- bered the men on the staff this year, but with the return of veterans, the Collegian was slowly becoming a fifty-fifty proposition. Besides presenting campus and local news, the Collegian also carried on extra-curricular activities for the good of the school. The success of Butler ' s contribution to the Victory Loan drive was largely due to the excellent exploitation given it in the Collegian ' s pages. It also presented an award for the highest individual sales recorded during the drive. The staff was always eager to support any worthwhile school project. Mr. Miller at the press. Duvall and Hyslop set type. Tobin, Mudd, and Whitley under the supervision of Mr. Gilbert. A long shot of the Collegian office. The sports desk hard at work. COLLEGIAN Betty Lee Snyder was the editor for the first semester, and Jack Bailey was at the helm the second half of the year. Both persons proved capable of handling a difficult job. A precedent was set aside in selecting Bailey to head the staff because he was an underclassman. Since he would have been an upperclassman if he had not served with the armed forces, the paper ' s sponsors felt that he deserved the job. Associate editors for the first semester were Carolyn Duvall, Mary Louise Miles, Marjorie Phillips, Joan Hayden, Jack Bailey, Joy Mudd and Margaret Dinkelaker. Bill Tobin started his second year as sports editor and Mary Schreiber was society editor. David Patrick and Alice Brassie were contributing editorialists the first semester. Don Hyslop set headlines and assisted in makeup. Reporters who earned the right for their names to ap- pear in the masthead were Jane Dillon, Helen Clark, Loisann Gotschall, Don Hack, Winifred Ham, Bob Sanders, Alice Brassie, Zenna Carmichael, Morene Cottlngham, Diann DeWeese, Mary Jo Honecker, Mary Palmerlee, Bill Pitt- man, Molly O ' Dell, Patricia Fox, Bill Robinson, and Lois Ramsey. Mrs. Rosamond Risser Jones was the faculty sponsor. Ronald W. Gilbert of the Associated Press again cracked the whip over the copy desk students, and Everett Miller was head of the mechanical department. Row I: Bailey. Snyder, Phillips. Duvall. Mudd.

The work on the DRIFT was not complete until the book was finally on the presses in April, 1946. It took almost one year for the staff, cover makers, engravers, and printers to place the 1946 DRIFT in the hands of the student body. Ann Gill, editor; Barbara Johnson, business manager; Muriel Holland, associate editor; Jo Koss, photographer; Bob Wells, layout editor; Bill Tobin, sports editor; Irene Sims, artist; and Pat Bond, Phyllis Augustin, and Jean Schoen, darkroom, made up the staff which worked to make the DRIFT a success. Ann Gill, Editor Barbara Johnson, Business Manager Jo Koss, Photographer Muriel Holland, Associate Editor Ann Gill, Editor Irene Sims and Bob Wells, Artists Barbara Johnson, Business Manager y DRIFT Koss, Gill, Holland, Johnson, Wells, Sims, Bond, Augus+ln, Tobin. With the opening of school in September the plans laid in the summer were put into action. Barbara Johnson issued contracts to honoraries, clubs, and other organiza- tions for page space, while at the same time Jo Koss started taking informal pictures of the campus and cam- pus activities. The student body had their individual portraits made by Liang Shen during September and October. In November the DRIFT beauty contest, under the direction of associate editor, Muriel Holland, and judged by Emma Gene Tucker, photographer; George Jo Mess, artist; and George A. Schumacher, Alumni Secretary of Butler University, placed fifteen girls in the running for the coveted title of DRIFT Beauties of 1946. Sonny Tufts, movie actor, made the final selection of the five who were Dorotha Beck, Kappa Kappa Gamma; Marjorie Lang, Kappa Kappa Gamma; Barbara Myers, Delta Delta Delta; Joan Newby, Butler Independent As- sociation, and Barbara Ordel, Pi Beta Phi. Also begin- ning in November, group pictures were taken by Jo Koss. Jo covered all the football games, dances, basket- ball games, and school activities from September until April. As pictures were taken, Pat Bond, Phyllis Augus- tin, and Jean Schoen printed the negatives into the finished pictures. From there Bob Wells and Ann Gill made the layouts of the pictures that were then shipped to the engravers. Muriel Holland set the date for turn- ing in writeups on organizations for December 10. Due to the inability of organizations to get their copy to the DRIFT on time copy work was not finished until April. Throughout the whole year Barbara Johnson, business manager, made out contracts, paid bills, collected bills, did the bookkeeping, made out the budget, and helped when and where she was needed. By the hard work and cooperation of the staff mem- bers the 1946 DRIFT was planned, worked out, and completed. ■ HONORARIES Row I : Auble, Thomp ' ,on, Popoff. Row 2: Barnei, Hcntqon, Miller, Downey. Patrick. SPHINX Sphinx is the honorary organization for junior men. Members are selected in the spring of their sophomore year on the basis of leader- ship, scholarship, personality, and participation in extra-curricular acti- vities. The members may be recognized by their white caps with black bands and keys bearing the insignia of the organization. The first major activity sponsored by Sphinx this year was the sale of Rhinie Pots to the freshmen. The first-year-men assumed the usual belligerent attitude toward wearing their pots but the sophomores and juniors soon subdued them, and by the end of the second month of school most of the freshmen were wearing their green caps. Sphinx also sponsored the Homecoming victory bonfires. Mem- bers compiled the rules concerning the gathering of the wood by the fraternities and awarded trophies to Phi Delta Theta and Sigma Nu fraternities. They tied for first place in gathering wood. The freshmen-sophomore fight, usually sponsored by Sphinx, was not held this year due to lack of support by the sophomore men. The last fight was held in 1945 when the freshmen scaled the well-greased pole to capture the sophomore flag during the closing seconds of the combat. The officers for the year were Wilbur Thompson, president; Damon Auble, vice-president; and Jack Kelly, secretary-treasurer. Prof. Ardin E. Hays is the faculty sponsor.

The increasing complexity of college life and the resulting distractions tending to draw attention and am- bition away from scholastic attainments demand ex- pedients calculated to recall students to the original purpose for which higher education was established and is maintained. One of these devices is the attainment of membership in an honor society based upon scholar- ship. Phi Kappa Phi is an honor society whose members are elected from the graduating classes and the faculties of the institutions in which chapters exist. Its primary object is to emphasize scholarship in the minds of stu- dents and to stimulate mental achievement by the prize of membership. It seeks to foster learning in competi- tion with the numerous attractive and conflicting in- terests affecting the modern everyday life of the under- graduate by offering him membership on an equal basis with members of the faculty. Through the associa- tion of these two factors it aims to promote good feeling, learning, and high ideals among students in their college relationships. These associations, it is hoped, will help to overcome the decentralizing tendencies of separate school emphasis so likely to prevail in large institutions as well as to give recognition to high achievement in the small as well as the large institution. Moreover, it seeks to offer inducement for effort in study equal to that offered in the field of athletics and other extra- curricular activities. Acknowledging the importance of encouraging scho- larship in any line of study, it democratically elects those students ranking scholastically in the upper fifth of the class at the end of three years in a four-year course leading to a bachelor ' s degree. Students in the various colleges and schools of liberal arts, agriculture, engineer- ing, law, commerce, home economics, etc., stand on an equal footing in election to membership.

WARD CORRINE WELLING ALICE B. WESENBERG THOR G. WESENBERG Phi Kappa Phi Is no+ a secret organization. As its name denotes it is a society and not a fraternity. It is not to be confused with the secret Greek letter social fraternities, nor with the professional, or departmental fraternities and honor societies in the different colleges. In no way does it interfere or compete with any of these. It is distinguished especially by the democracy of its elections and its constructive program for the promotion of scholarship. The Society, therefore, sees no objection to being introduced into colleges already having chap- ters of other honor societies. It works harmoniously with all of these. The Society stands for the unity and democracy of learning, and membership in it is open to members of other honor societies and fraternities, and to both men and women. The Phi Kappa Phi Honor Society owes its origin to the suggestion of ten members of the class of 1897 at the University of Maine that some recognition should be made of scholarly attainments as well as athletic prowess. Their proposal met with a cordial response from Dr. A. W. Harris, the President of the University, and they were encouraged to organize a local society based on the suggestions they had made. President Harris and two other members of the faculty were ap- pointed to co-operate with them. The name of the Society is composed of the initial letters of the Greek words, Philosophia Kratei Photon, which by a somewhat free translation may be taken to mean, The love of learning rules the world. The Butler University Chapter of Phi Kappa Phi was founded on April 15, 1922, by fourteen faculty members whose aim was to bring to this school a national honor society based upon scholarship and to stimulate a pride in intellectual achievement on the part of students to give the search for knowledge its legitimate place among their varied interests. These fourteen founders were President Robert Aley, Dean James W. Putman, Profes- sors Johnson, Gelston, Weaver, Morro, Jordan, Baum- gartner, Harrison, Harris, Ratti, Richardson, Shadinger, and Jensen. Student members of the Butler Chapter of Phi Kappa Phi are elected in the fall and in the spring from the up- per I0° ' o of the senior class. Phi Kappa Phi sponsors Honor Day each year at which time recognition is given to the academic achievements of the year, and a speaker who is recognized as an outstanding scholar in his parti- cular field delivers an address.

The -familiar letters E.E.S.O. stand for Elementary Education Students ' Organiza- tion. The group is sponsored by Dr. Frank H. Gorman, and all students enrolled in elementary education are eligible for membership. The organization holds bi- monthly meetings, one being a social meeting and the other devoted to outside speakers who are asked to talk on subjects of particular interest to the members. Mr. George Disher, principal of an Indianapolis grade school, was one of the out- standing speakers of the year. He told the members, as future elementary teachers, just what they could expect when they were faced with an actual teaching situation. A Halloween party was a highlight among the social events of the year. Ghost stories were told and refreshments served. One of the outstanding activities spon- sored by the organization was the E.E.S.O. Fish Pond. It was successful in further introducing the club to the campus. E.E.S.O. once again held an Alumni Day on which past education students were invited to Butler to share their teaching experiences with prospective teachers nov in the College of Education. An election of officers is held at the beginning of each fall semester. Officers for this year were: Jo Ann Cunningham, president; Peggy Rankin, vice-president; Marjorie Garrett, secretary; Jean Griswold, treasurer. The following members were appointed committee chairmen: Judy Badger, social chairman; Georgia Swope, room committee chairman; Herberta Fry, program chairman; Gloria Virt, publicity chairman. The publicity chairman and vice-president are membership co-chairmen. Each member of the organization is on at least one committee. E.E.S.O. meetings are held in the Eliza Blaker room furnished by the Blaker Club with which E.E.S.O. is happy to be affiliated. The Blaker Club is composed of alumni and friends of the Butler University College of Education. The purpose of the Elementary Education Students Organization is the drawing together of students of the elementary department for closer associations among them. The atmosphere of the organization is informal and relaxing and creates an opportunity for worthwhile suggestions, pleasing entertainment, and opportunities for making new and lasting friendships. E. E. S. O. The Butler University International Rol.itions Club wds founded in 1930 by Dr. A. Dcilo Bcolcr, who hjs been it; copiible faculty sponsor since that time. One of the principle activities of the igroup is its annual participotion in the Mid-West Conference, a yearly meeting of similar organizations that was also organized in 1930 by Dr. Bccler, Professor Warren Isom, and others. In that year Butler University was host to the Conference. The main purpose of the club is to instruct public opinion in inter- national affairs and to further this aim, at various times throughout the year speakers on pertinent topics have met with the club. Membership is open to all students interested in international relations. Ann Holloway was president; Dorotha Beck, vice-president; Ruth Hoppe, secretary; and Nancy Ostrander, treasurer.

Like other campus organizations the Newman Club has been subject to wartime curtailment and restriction of its acti- vities. From the opening of the school year through the first semester, the club has been reorganized in order to bring it into conformity with the original purpose as set forth by the National Federation of Newman Clubs. Since the first Newman Club was organized at the University of Pennsylvania in 1893, Newmanites on all college and university campuses have endeavored to present and revitalize the spiritual and cultural heritage of the Roman Catholic tradition. At various times during the year Newman Club members attended church and had a breakfast together. Other acti- vities of the group Included mixers and socials at the Cathedral Recreation Center. John Henry Newman was converted to the Roman Catholic Church in 1845. The Butler Newman Club has re-empha- sized its loyalty to the great Oxford scholar by studying the Cardinal ' s writings, which are a source of knowledge for all students ' minds and hearts. Newman Club officers for this year were Joan Freihage, president; Earl O ' Brian, vice-president; Jean Osborne, secretary; and Joan Beebe, treasurer. Dr. Frank Gorman is the faculty sponsor.

The Psychology Club is designed to promote interest in the study of Psychology by bringing together those interested in it for an exchange of ideas, and to gain a closer understanding of the ways in which psychology can help them in living more useful and happier lives. A wide variety of outside speakers, representing various phases of the science, have added greatly to the interest of the meetings. At the first meeting of the year Dr. Gordon H. Clark, professor of philosophy, spoke on the Psychology of Plotienus. The club heard a Marine Colonel, Asa J. Smith, speak on Military Psychology. At another meeting Mr. A. G. Wolter, a hypnotist, demonstrated hypnosis. Other speakers included Dr. Jean Sutherland, professor of education, who related some of her psychological experiences, and Mrs. Washburn from the State Welfare Department. Membership is open especially to psychology majors, and also to anyone else who has taken one or more psychology courses and is interested in the study of psychology. The club has been functioning since 1939. During the past year there were seventy-four active members, which manifested a growing interest in the subject of psychology. This interest is becoming nation-wide and has been greatly stimulated by the extensive work done in the field of psychology during the war in connection with the armed forces, the home front, etc. Today psychology is recognized as one of the foremost sciences, and greater knowledge of it is advancing by the traditional leaps and bounds. The meetings of the Psychology Club were held once every two weeks in each of the sorority houses in turn. The program of the evening usually was followed by refreshments and a period of informality and general discussion. These meetings provided an excellent opportunity to further friendships made in the classroom. The Psychology Club officers for the 1945-46 year have been Jack Farr, president; Jane Sumner, vice-president; and Jo Ann Baker, secretary-treasurer. The presi- dency was vacated in February, and Jane Sumner then served as president. Dr. Charles C. Josey is the faculty sponsor of the club. PSyCHOLOGY CLUB The Welwyn Club is composed of home economics majors and till other students who are interested in home economics. The club, sponsored by Miss Grace Whitosol, has enjoyed another very active and successful year. The meetings were held twice a month in the home economics department. In October a tea was held honor- ing freshmen and new home economics students. Welwyn Club has had various outside speakers, prominent in the field of home economics. Several graduates of Butler related their experiences in this field. As a club project the members made rag dolls. A Christmas party, several luncheons, and the annual spring picnic completed the calendar for the year. Officers have been Betty Lou Ranstead, president; Thelma Endicott, vice-president; Barbara Frey, secretary; Margaret Spink, treasurer; Virginia Coxen, corresponding secretary; Elizabeth Schumacher, editor.

Shultz, Butler, ' 31, has come through the war years with flying colors and has had a very successful and active year. The blue uniformed members were present at many Butler functions and at the home football games and a night game at Franklin College. The Band marched between halves of the games and, with the help of the high stepping, vivacious color guard, formed letters of the respective schools. The numerous other activities of the Band were: playing for home basketball games, giv- ing a concert for the Poet ' s Corner at the Central Y.W.C.A., winning first place for the best college unit in the American Legion State Convention Parade, marching in Army Day Parade, and playing for Baccalaureate and Commencement exercises. With the able help of all the members of the Band, who were clad in bluejeans, sweat shirts, and slacks, the new quarters of the Band in the Butler Field House were cleaned up and now the Band meets in one of the class- rooms of the 52nd Detachment of the Air Corps which was stationed at the Field House and the Band equipment is now kept in the old Officers ' Supply Room. With the increased enrollment of veterans at Butler, the Band ' s personnel has increased considerably and it is rapidly going back to its pre-war stage of being practi- cally an all-boy band. Knight Campbell was the drum major of the Band for the first semester and Curt Hentgen for the second semester. COLOR GUARD Mawson, O ' Donnell, Holland, Corya, Hurt, Sims, Montgomery, Guin, Lawson, Loucks, Schreiber, Myers, Wattleworth, Swickard. The color guard, a selected co-ed group, presented a colortui accompaniment to the Butler band during the year. Clad in blue jackets and white skirts, the girls marched with the band in each o-f its public appearances. Members of the group are chosen on a basis of ap- pearance, scholastic average, and ability to execute mili- tary commands. During the year the girls must maintain a school-determined average to continue in the color guard. Increased in size this year, the color guard made its first public appearance in the V-J celebration day parade. Football fans saw the girls presenting baton and Swiss flag drills at the half of each home game. During the basketball season, military drills were executed at the games ' halves. Along with the band the color guard participated in the Armistice and Army day parades in the downtown sector. The combined band and color guard were honored with an award for the best university outfit marching in the V-J celebration parade. Color guard members learned Swiss Flag, Baton and military routines at class meetings on Tuesday and Thurs- day afternoons at the Fieldhouse. Serving her second year as head majorette, Joan Mawson directed the activities of the group. Majorettes Jackie Lawson, Peg O ' Donnell, and Rosemarie Steinbach assisted her. Members of the color guard for the first semester included: Bettylou Bergeron. Patricia Boyers, Bebita Corya, Marnita Dietrich, Nancy Dreesen, Joan Eisen- barth, Jean Farson, Marjorie Garrett, Ann Guin, Wini- fred Ham, Muriel Holland, Henrietta Hurt, Marjorie Lang, Shirley Loucks, Rhea McGoldrick, Barbara Myers, Barbara Montgomery, Barbara Patterson, Alice Pettinger, Mary Schreiber, Barbara Seegar, Irene Sims, Dorothy Swickard, and Marian Wattleworth. Second semester color guard girls were: Bebita Corya, Muriel Holland, Henrietta Hurt, Shirley Louclis, Barbara Montgomery, Barbara Myers, Mary Schreiber, Irene Sims, Dorothy Swickard, and Marian Wattleworth. INTERFRATERNITY COUNCIL Row I: Compton, Miller. Bailey. Row 2: Thompson, Manifold, Patterson. Row 3: Auble, Hentgen, Kelly, Carmack. The In+erfra+erni+y Council is composed of the presi- dents of the five fraternities on the Butler campus, plus one additional representative from each group. This year, as in previous years, the council has endeavored to solve the common problems encountered in each frater- nity, to work with the university for the good of the univer- sity, and to promote better understanding and coopera- tion among the members of the organizations. During the first semester Kappa Psi, national pharma- ceutical social fraternity, joined the council. This organi- zation is to move onto the campus soon. The fourth annual Interfraternity Dance was held on December 8 at the Marott Hotel with Barbara Patterson reigning as Interfraternity Queen. Miss Patterson, who was attended by a court of girls composed of women ' s organization representatives, was presented with a bou- quet of red roses, a gold identification bracelet, and a trophy. The Commanders orchestra played for the af- fair, and William Patterson, Sigma Chi, was general chairman. Russell Miller, Delta Tau Delta, was president of the Council, and Leroy Compton, Phi Delta Theta, and Jack Bailey, Sigma Nu, served as vice-president and secretary- treasurer respectively. Prof. L. Gray Burdin, chairman of the Men ' s Council, was advisor for the group. With the university returning to peacetime schedule, and with the great influx of veterans, the work of the council was greatly increased. This has been a highly satisfactory Council year. .M b M H The Panhellonic Council, composed of the president and rush chairman of each sorority on the campus, stands for unity and cooperation among the Greek-letter organi- zations. Although the council enforces the rules and regu- lations which govern the sororities, rush is the main prob- lem with which it is concerned. During the summer months formal rush is planned, an d a rush booklet is pre- pared. Meetings are held each day during rush week to discuss any problems which arise The council also super- vises rush problems during the entire year. The annual Panhellenic Dance, which is always the first social event of the formal season, was held December — at the K of C Hall. Music was provided by Harry Mc- Crady and his orchestra. Large models of each sorority and fraternity pin decorated the walls, and on the back- drop were placed Greek letters of each organization. Approximately three-hundred couples attended. The council offers to all students the use of its loan fund which is at their disposal in emergency cases. This fund has been used to great advantage by many girls. Officers this year were Lorna Dahlstrand, president; and Dolores Steinsberger, secretary-treasurer. Dean Elizabeth B. Ward is sponsor. Council members this year were: Betty Lee Snyder ond Muriel Holland, Alpha Chi Omega; Miss Steins- berger and Barbara Patterson, Delta Delta Delta; Mari- cTnne MacDonald and Patricia Henning, Delta Gamma; Ruth Hoppc and Barbara Seeger, Kappa Kappa Gamma; Carolyn Duvall and Dottie Lou Davis.

The Loyalty Legion was begun and has become firmly established as Butler ' s organized effort toward further- ing school spirit and the contribution of service. One of the first projects of the year under the sponsor- ship of the Loyalty Legion was the Bonfire. This event was of great importance due to the fact that it was the first bonfire which included competitive wood gathering since the beginning of the war. The bonfire was a part of the Homecoming celebration in connection with the Butler-Manchester game October 20. The highlight of the Loyalty Legion activities this year was the welcoming back of Tony Hinkle as head of the athletic department. Tony was hailed by a combination pep session-convocation at which he was introduced to the members of the football team and the student body. Members of the Loyalty Legion are chosen on the basis of the enthusiasm and loyalty they show toward Butler and are representative of all the Greek-letter organizations on the campus, as well as the independent students. Officers for 1945-46 include William Wildman, presi- dent; Curtiss Hentgen, treasurer; and Betty Handy, sec- retary. Faculty sponsor for the organization is Dr. Guy H. Shadinger. The Loyalty Legion, although handicapped for the last few years by the lack of student support and the lack of students, is looking forward to renewed vigor among the student body, making for more spirit on the Fairview campus. The coming year should prove one of the greatest the Legion has ever experienced. The Student Council is the organization responsible for bringing order out of the chaos of student activities, and it has jurisdiction over all of those activities not supervised directly by the faculty. The Council con- ducts all class and queenship elections and regulates electioneering. This year the Council secured the consent of the faculty to re-open the Campus Club and has drawn up rules tor its use, as well as presenting student ideas for improvements and future additions to the club. In addition to these duties the Council also helps to select student representatives to serve on certain faculty committees which direct activities not under student Council supervision. The Council consists of fourteen members elected by the classes which they represent: six seniors, five juniors, and three sophomores. The two sophomores re- ceiving the most votes fill two-year terms, as do the three members who are elected as juniors. The other sopho- more and the three elected seniors serve for one year only. The president of the Council is also president of the student body. This office has been held this year by Betty Lou Ranstead. Betty Handy served as secretary and Ruth Marie Ralph as chairman of the elections com- mittee. Other members wore Doris Daley, George Downey, Peggy Goebel, Thclma Endicott, Ann Gill, Cur- tiss Hentgen, Irma Piel, Joan Pittinger, Jim DlrLim, Bev Maxam, and Betty Wales. Professor Virginia Brunion and Dr. Franklin Bur dette served as faculty advisers of the Student Council. Row I: Ralph, Ranstead, Handy. Row 2: Gill, Endicott, Goebel, Pittenger, Daley.

To carry out this theme, various speakers and panels appeared at the monthly meetings to explain the principles and beliefs of different religions. Activities for the year were started by the co-sponsor- ship of the Freshman Mixer with the Y.M.C.A. Next came the membership drive and tea in October. The result was the largest membership the Y.W.C.A. has ever had. In December the annual Christmas party and wreath hanging were held. On March 9 the Fairview Frolic was co-sponsored with the Y.M.C.A., and in May the Spring Sing was held. At the last May meeting be- fore Mother ' s Day the Mother ' s Tea was held. Before graduation a banquet honoring the senior members of the cabinet was given. Outstanding project for the year was the sponsorship of Coke Forums with the Y.M.C.A. Well-known speakers were provided for the forums at which such topics as labor problems, education problems, and the Russian question were discussed. The Y.W.C.A. was led through the year by Betty Handy, president. Other officers were Betty Lee Snyder, vice-president; Jane Sumner, secretary; and Ethelda Kel- ter, treasurer. Committee chairmen comprising the cabinet were: program, Joan Freihage; social, Thelma Endicott; ways and means, June Ann Goodrich; devotions, Wanda Coil; house, Katharine Armstrong; social service, Janet Alex- ander; freshman advisor, Pat Henning; music, Dorothy Clarke; handbook, Barbara Fark; art, Lorna Dahlstrand; and publicity, Barbara Wells. Sponsors for the year were Mrs. Charles C. Josey and Mrs. Karl S. Means. y. M. C. A. The Y.M.C.A. encourages companionship and -friend- liness among the students of the university, and endea- vors in every possible way to promote these traits. It has its own clubroom, the Y room, located in the base- ment of Jordan Hall, which provides an excellent place for students to get together. The Y room had its face lifted during the second semester of the year, and now contains an office, a cabi- net room, and a lounge complete with ping pong table and comfortable chairs. An outgrowth of frequent Y room discussions were the popular Coke Forums which have been held for the second consecutive year. Other activities for the year were a Freshman Mixer, publication of the Rhinie Guide and Blue Book, a World Student Service Fund Drive, and conducting of Lenten devotional acti- vities. Allen H. Gardner is the executive secretary. The central purpose of the Butler University Y.M.C.A. is Christian service to the student body, the faculty, and friends of Butler University. Functioning through its many committees, the Y practices Christian Democracy and cooperates with all student organizations in many activities beneficial to the University. Y.M.C.A. officers who filled the 1945-46 term have been Wilbur Thompson, president; Donald Gobin, organ- ized vice-president; Bill Tobin, unorganized vice-presi- dent; Russell Miller, secretary; and Curtiss Hentgen, treasurer.

ICHTHUS -«-3J Ct The undergraduate department of religion in the Col- lege of Liberal Arts and Sciences attempts to serve all university students, not only those majoring in some parti- cular field of religion but also those who desire to have some training in the field of religion. Potential mis- sionaries, ministers, youth workers and religious education directors comprise the group. Many of the students, aside from their studying tor degrees, are working in churches of Indiana and adjoining states in the capacity of student ministers, youth workers, and religious educa- tion assistants. This department is open to people of all races and creeds, and at present it contains individual representatives from numerous religious groups. Although housed in different buildings on the campus, the undergraduate department of religion and the gradu- ate school of religion maintain close cooperation. Daily worship, available to all undergraduates, is conducted in the Sweeney Chapel by the graduate school. The exclusive organization of the undergraduate re- ligion students is the Ichthus Club. The purpose of this club is to deepen the spiritual life of its members through worship, to increase Christian fellowship in the depart- ment, and to develop in its members the capacity to serve by giving them the opportunity to participate in the actual conducting of worship services. All undergraduate students may join. The staff of the undergraduate department of religion is composed of Dr. E. Robert Andry, Kenneth A. Stewart, T. K. Smith, and Miss Nellie Young. Professor Stewart is on leave of absence as a chaplain in the U. S. Navy, and Robert W. Shaw is supplying for him in his absence.

The history of the Student Ministerial Association parallels that of the University in point of time. From a modest beginning as the Sandwich Club on the old Irvington campus, it has grown to its present effective status as one of the most active organizations of Butler. Mem bership is voluntary, consisting of students of the School of Religion and Department of Religion. As stated in the constitution, the purposes of the association are: the fostering of high ideals of life and work among students for the Christian ministry. The expression of these ideals in an increasing sense of comradeship in Christ, concern for the growth of the Church, and interest in the development of this school. The embodiment of these ideals in group projects. One of the outstanding services of the year was par- ticipation in the Youth Evangelism program. Teams com- posed of speakers and singers assisted in this campaign in thirteen nearby churches. A current project is that of supplying devotional speakers for the Marion County Ministerial Association ' s monthly meetings. In conjunction with Student Volunteers, Morning De- votions, a worship period for all students, meeting daily, Tuesday through Friday, has been maintained. Also, the Sunday worship service in Sweeney Chapel is a coopera- tive enterprise. Zelotai Club, an auxiliary organization composed of ministers ' wives, has made an invaluable contribution to the association ' s success. Officers are: Arthur Edwards, president; Warren Mathis, graduate representative; Denver Sizemore, sec- retary; and James Dorman, treasurer. Student Volunteers, a national organization with a missionary spirit and purpose, originated in Mount Ver- non, Mass., in 1886. The stated objectives of the organi- zation were: to maintain interest In foreign missions; to enroll volunteers for missions; to help these prepare for service; to lay an equal burden of responsibility on those at home. The Butler chapter was organized on October 20, 1941, with Dr. and Mrs. A. E. Cory as sponsors. Membership is open to all who are in sympathy with the purposes of the organization. A primary object has been to create a Christian vi- sion of the world missionary task among students of But- ler University. To this end semi-monthly programs are held, at which missionaries on furlough or en route are guest speakers. Student Volunteers from Butlc-r University who are preparing to go to foreign mission fields are: David and Lois Rees, Ellis Back and Jane Kinnott, going to West China; Earl and Ottle Mearl Stuckenbruck, Russia; Grace Shoppe, Ray Ming, and Mr. and Mrs. John Ross, South America. Ida Bronnenberg is preparing for Home Mis- sions. The establishing and encouraging of personal Interest and activity In the support of missionary work Is accom- plished through the visiting of local churches, and the en- richment of the spiritual life of the student body through morning devotions and Sunday chapel services.

STUDENT VOLUNTEERS i Competition for queenships was just as keen, the coeds as lovely, Homecoming as enthusiastic, and the dances as enjoyable and gay as any previous year, but in 1945-46 they seemed to have a more special meaning to the body.

FRESH MAN The beginning of clais dances was the Freshman Rose Dance, held January I I , at the Travertine Room of the Lincoln Hotel from 9:00- 12:00 p. m. Nearly 250 couples danced to Max Wilson ' s orchestra as Bebita Corya, Alpha Chi Omega, was crowned Freshman Rose Queen after the upset election of the year. Miss Corya received a gold trophy, a bouquet of American Beauty roses, and a beautiful crown of roses from Charles Millet, Freshman Class President. She was escorted by Dean Bonnette.

ROSE DAN C E The Sophomore Cotillion was held February 2, from 9:00-12:00 p. m. in the Columbia Club. The Cotillion is the annual dance pre- sented by the Butler Sophomore Class. Miss Irene Sims, Pi Beta Phi, was chosen to reign as Sophomore Sweetheart and was elected by a majority vote of the Sophomore men. The coronation of the queen brought back to Butler dances an old tradition which had been discontinued during war days. Queen Irene was attired in the black and gold traditional queen ' s robe and was escorted to her throne by Bill Hardman, Phi Delta Theta. Miss Sims was presented with a gold trophy by John Carmack, Sophomore Cotil- lion chairman, and a bouquet of lovely American Beauty Roses by Jim Dirlam, Sophomore president. In her crown of flowers was a purple orchid. Bob Wells acted as master of ceremonies for the coronation. During intermission the Queen and her court were entertained by Bernadine Cook, toe dancer.

COTILLION The climax of all the school and class dances was the Junior Prom held March 30, in the Egyptian Room of the Murat Theatre. This year ' s Prom was even more gay than usual and brought to Butler the spirit of pre-war days. Kappa Kappa Gamma ' s own sweetheart, Barbara Seeger, was elected by the Junior men to reign as queen of the Prom. Miss Seeger was every bit a queen attired in a white gown. She was escorted to an altar decorated with palms and greenery by her pin man, Fred Kautzman. She was presented the trophy and a colonial bouquet and crown of pink camellias by Dean Neeriemer, Prom chairman. Members of the Queen ' s court were Kitty Jo Denbo, Kappa Alpha Theta; Ann Gill, Pi Beta Phi; Marjorie Yelvington, Alpha Chi Omega; Helen Brinkworth, Delta Delta Delta; Carol St. Clair, Delta Gamma; Joan Durbin, Trianon; Mary Louise Miles, Butler Independent Associa- tion; and Ann Clem, Zeta Tau Alpha.

Helping Dean Neeriemer to make the Prom such a success were Marge Yelvington, tickets; June Goodrich decorations; Pat Brown, hall; Betty Hearne, chaperons; Barbara Park, publicity; Betty Hack, programs; and Thelma Endicott, band. Chaperons were Dr. and Mrs. K. S. Means, Dr. and Mrs. C. C. Josey and Dr. and Mrs. James H. Peeling. Honestly, she is so sad. The grand march. And Scottle won the beard-growing contest. PROM AT H L Paul D. Hinkle returned to Butler, as did many veterans; but he brought with him the old school spirit and instilled it in the student body giving to it new life — the Bulldog arose, stretched, and started on its way back to the .top of atlifetK- competition. BUTLER FIELDHOUSE The months between September, 1945, and June, 1946, may go down as the most important period in the history of Butler ' s Battling Bulldogs. In just nine months, Fairview shook off the sports lethargy that prevailed during the war and moved into an advanced sports program, the effect of which will govern local athletics for many years to come. The reason was simple: Paul Daniel Hinkle. On November 2, 1945, the man who had been only a legend to almost all students from the graduating class of ' 46 to the incoming class of 1949, returned after three years service in the Navy. And with him came a terrific revival of spirit and tradition. Tony, Hinkle ' s familiar nickname that everyone soon adopted, returned after Frank Pop Hedden, Wally Middlesworth, and Herb Schwomeyer had started the post-war sports ball roiling with the school ' s first gridiron campaign since 1942. Pop ' s football season was only the starter. A week after Hinkle ' s return Ray Sears, wiry track mentor, was discharged after a two and a half year hitch in the Marines. On November 14 Hinkle called his first basket- ball practice, and three weeks later the Bulldogs raised the curtain on the new sports era with the first net victory of the season. Shortly after completion of the hardwood campaign, an announcement came from Cleveland that Butler had been invited to join a new tri-state athletic conference. Later dubbed the Mid-American Conference of Urban Universities, the proposed league listed Wayne of De- troit; Western Reserve of Cleveland; Ohio of Athens; Cincinnati; Case School of Applied Science of Cleve- land, and Butler as charter members. With final action on the league pending the decision of the Board of Directors in April, sports continued to gain momentum. Interest in the intramural program had been sparked by a football season that saw Phi Delta Theta capture the championship by rambling through 10 games with only one loss and a tie marring its record. A torrid l-M basketball season followed, with the Phi Delts again taking the title. The crown was snatched from the hands of Crew by a roaring finish of two vic- tories over the previously unbeaten independent quintet. By the time the l-M basketball championship was set- tled, varsity track and spring football had taken over. At this writing. Coach Sears was grooming 13 entries for the Purdue Relays March 23, in the opening test of an I I -meet card facing Butler ' s first cinder squad since 1943. Looking ahead to the return of the Butler Relays next year, the team was expected to carry 25 men during the season. Spring football training, the first in four years, got under way the second week in March, with 47 men reporting in preparation for the coming season that will indicate just how big time the future Bulldogs will be. A veteran baseball team was scheduled to start its 15 game course April 16 at Purdue. Over 25 men were awaiting the opening of training March 25. With the varsity schedule well defined, intramurals again came to the fore with a plan calling for participa- tion of more than 300 students during the spring months. Scheduled were softball, tennis, golf, swimming, and track. As a whole, the 1945-46 seasons were the end of the old and the beginning of the new. The great teams of the future may well be traced to this school year. ATH LETICS 1945-46 Coaches: Hinkle, Sears, Hoddon, Schwo meyer. Cheerleaders: Beckwith, Mudd, Howard, Hodges, Sellmeyer, Watkins, Tirmenstein. ' ' i III. .ill ! nil nil THE 1945 FOOTBALL TEAM I EASTERN ILLINOIS 12, BUTLER 7 Two years oi gridiron inac+ivi+y ended for the Bulldogs on September 29 against Eastern Illinois Teachers College, but a 97-yard return of an intercepted pass in the final period was enough to spoil Butler ' s opener, 12 to 7. Opening the season after only four weeks of practice, the Bulldogs held a slim 7 to 6 lead through three quarters, but tired in the last stanza and allowed the Panthers to snag an intended Butler touchdown pass on their three yard line and with the aid of a lateral go all the way for the deciding marker. Kenny Nixon, freshman halfback from Danville, III., tallied the Bulldogs ' only touch- down on a reverse from Marion Fine in the first quarter. Ron Dodds, who suffered a fractured rib in the second half, kicked the extra point from placement. BUTLER 56, EARLHAM 7 The Bulldogs began their bid to regain the Indiana College Conference champion- ship in the Bowl October 6 by routing an inexperienced Earlham eleven, 56 to 7. Sharp blocking and tackling featured the tilt, which saw a parade of Blue and White reserves score almost at will in every period to roll up nine touchdowns and two extra points. Tom Gooch, who shifted from a second string halfback berth to replace the injured Dodds at full, paced the Butler attack with three touchdowns. Duane Robert- son and Bill Stratton, both making their first appearance in the lineup, were also incidental in the Bulldogs ' powerhouse running game. Aided by a 33 yard penalty — half the distance to the goal — against Butler for unnecessary roughness, Earlham broke through for their only score late In the second quarter. BUTLER 32, FRANKLIN 6 The Bulldogs hung up their second conference victory on a road trip to Franklin brushing aside the Grizzlies, 32 to 6, in a night game October 18. Backed by almost 400 students who made the trip in spite of near freezing weather, Butler ended a first period deadlock by connecting on a pass from Robertson to End Dick Heacox for the first touchdown early in the second quarter. The Bulldogs ran the count to 13 to before the Grizzlies scored on a 70-yard sustained drive in the final minutes of the second half. From that point on it was all Butler, and with Gooch adding two more touchdowns to his total, the Bulldogs scored again in the third quarter, and climaxed the evening with a 19-point final period. Dodds, playing in spite of his injury, accounted for the Blue ' s only two successful conversions. FOOT .jimaumtttiiiiu auita BALL BUTLER 56, MANCHESTER A home-coming crowd of more than 6,000 was on hand October 20 when the Bull- dogs exploded a ground offensive that bowled aside the third consecutive conference foe, whitewashing Manchoster, 56 to 0. Recovering a Manchester fumble immediately following the kiclc-off, the Bulldogs plunged over for their first score 30 seconds after the opening of the game. Minutes later the Blue and White counted again, and the attack continued without letup all afternoon. Statistics reveal as much as the score the complete Butler victory, as the Bulldogs gained almost 500 yards to the Spartans ' 70, and racked up 15 first downs to the visitors ' four. Boris Chaliff, Butler ' s 1942 quarterback who had just received his discharge from the Army, became the first football letterman to see action after returning from the service, making a brief appearance midway in the game. BALL STATE 16, BUTLER 2 With visions of the Conference championship hanging in the fieldhouse, the Bulldogs traveled to Muncie on November 3 for a game that, everyone agreed, would result in a Butler victory. But a fighting Ball State eleven, playing inspired football before a chilly home- coming crowd, scored the league ' s upset of the season by outclassing the Blue and White, 16 to 2. From the opening gun it was evident that the Cardinals were out for blood. Revenge-seeking Ball State uncorked its drive in the first period with a 15-yard field goal, and didn ' t slow up until the final session when Butler made its only tally. After rolling with ease to two touchdowns, the Cards tired in the final period and allowed the visiting Bulldogs to trap Fullback Vic Overman behind his own goal, thereby a voiding a shutout for Butler. VALPARAISO 6, BUTLER The record books were closed for the 1945 Bulldogs on a November 10 in the Bowl, as Valparaiso made good its claim to the state title by shading Butler, 6 to 0, in the final game of the season. Although attendance was lowered by a cold wind that swept the field, the Bull- dogs displayed their best performance of the year against the power-laden Northern team, and lost only after doing everything but scoring. A victory for the locals would have prevented the Crusaders from capturing the championship, and Butler completely out played the visitors throughout the game. Valpo tallied in its first drive, moving the ball over the Blue and White goal in only eight plays. An offside penalty cost the extra point, and from there on the game was all ■■■ ' ' - BUTLER BUTLER AB MANCHESTER 43 Butler ' s new peBcs-rime basksfbali sra opens wnh all fhe attending -frills against MancHester ' Spartans ir +t)e TieldtiDuse on Dscsmber 1 , and be Tore 3,D0D -fans Hinkle ' s quirrret dereated tKe vaoers, 4B to 43.

BULLDOGS ILLINOIS WESLEYAN 52 BUTLER 45 Hinkle ' s Fairvlew five headed west to Bloomlngton, III., for the first road game of the season December 8, and despite its best showing to date, fell before Illinois Wesleyan, 52 to 45. In the schools ' first meeting in 27 years, the Titans waited until the second half to capture the contest. Largely on the sharp-shooting of Cook, Toon, and Cranny, high scorer with I I points for the third consecu- tive time, the Bulldogs led throughout the first half, but couldn ' t maintain their 35-to-23 halftlme advantage in the second period. BUTLER 47 BALL STATE 40 Shaken by their first loss of the season, the Bulldogs returned to the fieldhouse on Wednesday, December 12, and staged one of the most thrilling comebacks in Butler history to conquer Ball State, 47 to 40, In a torrid double- overtime battle. Trailing 3l-to-29 with only 30 seconds remaining, Dick Heacox hit from under the net to knot the count and send the tilt Into its first overtime session. The Cardinals took an early lead in the extra period, but a long, high field goal from mid-court by Cook tied the score at 36-all just as the overtime was running out. Cook ' s story book basket broke the back of the Cardinals, and the Bulldogs won easily In the second extra period. Diminutive Marlon Fine was Butler ' s high point man with I 2 tallies. BUTLER 47 MIAMI 40 A rally In the final seven minutes of play against Miami ' s Redskins at Oxford, Ohio, on December 15 gave the Bulldogs their fourth victory of the season, 47 to 40. BASKETBALL 1945-46 i Fine, the smallest man on the playing floor, moved into the starting lineup to replace Bob King, and out-shot the Redskin giants to capture honors with 14 points. BUTLER 48 DEPAUW 44 The Bulldogs continued to pace the Indiana College Conference title race by scoring a hard-fought, 48 to 44, victory over DePauw in the fieldhouse December 17. Before a Monday night crowd of 3,000, Cranny and Fine showed the way in the final four minutes to give the Bulldogs their fourth league victory in as many starts. LOUISVILLE 51 BUTLER 41 Butler ' s second defeat of the season was registered in the fieldhouse the next evening, as a power-laden Louisville five humbled the Bulldogs, 51 to 41. The 4,000 fans who witnessed the clash had no doubts as to the final outcome after the opening minutes, as the Cards jumped quickly ahead and led at the half, 27 to 15. Butler hit only one field goal in the first period, but paced by Cranny and Cook, made a creditable showing in the last stanza. BUTLER 37 MIAMI 35 Victory number five was registered during Christmas Holidays as the Hinklemen scored their second success over Miami, 37 to 35, before 3,500 in the fieldhouse, on December 29. It was a see-saw battle during the entire first period, with the visitors leaving the floor with a slim l5-to-l4 advantage. The score then changed hands twice before the Bulldogs assumed a permanent lead in the final four minutes. INDIANA 58 BUTLER 47 The largest crowd of the season — 6,500 net fans — jammed into the fieldhouse New Year ' s night, but the roaring home crowd couldn ' t offset the height of Indiana University, and Butler lost, 58 to 47. However, the score fails to show how close the Bulldogs came to emerging victorious. The game was lost from the foul circle, when the Hurryin ' Hoosiers collected 18 points on 24 attempts. Jerry Cranny, again Butler ' s high scorer with 15 markers, played one of his best games of the season. BUTLER 42 EARLHAM 40 Butler ' s fifth I.C.C. victory came at the expense of Earlham as the Bulldogs shaded the Quakers, 42 to 40, in a tilt January 10, at Richmond. The Blue, holding a 12-point, 28 to 16, margin at the half, staved off a late Earlham rally to gain the victory. The game winning marker was made with the score tied 40-all in the last two minutes as Cranny connected from under the net. BUTLER 73 ILLINOIS WESLEYAN 50 The Bulldogs revenged one of their three previous defeats by running up one of the highest scores ever registered on the home court, 73 to 50, over Illinois Wesleyan on January 1 2. The Titans, unimproved since their early season triumph over the Fairview squad, couldn ' t match Butler ' s accurate shooting and passing. Led by Toon with 20 points, Butler blazed to victory in the second half after leading, 33 to 31, at the intermission. BUTLER 38 WABASH 36 The Blue ' s rosey record in Conference play was extended to five straight as a re- sult of the season ' s second conquest of Wa- bash, 38 to 36, in Crawfordsville Jan. 17. But the Little Giant ' s pushed the Bu dogs to the utmost before yielding in the last five minutes. Cook paced Butler ' s scoring efforts with 13 points. 1 tt DEPAUW 49 BUTLER 45 But Butler ' s dream of a Conference crown suddenly exploded at DePauw on January 24, as the defending champion Tigers blitzed the Bulldogs, 49 to 45. This loss, coming after Butler had en- joyed a 2! to 20 advantage at the intermis- sion, practically eliminated the locals ' chances from the championship. The de- feat was the fourth  f the season for the Bulldogs, and gave the Tigers revenge for the earlier Butler triumph. VALPARAISO 55 BUTLER 50 Any doubt that Butler was really out of championship consideration was eliminated two nights after the first league defeat, when Valparaiso slipped past the Bulldogs, 55 to 50. But the fieldhouse crowd of 3,500 saw Fairview ' s five put up one of its best bat- tles before going down for its second Con- ference loss. The Bulldogs, who outshone their taller rivals in floor play, were defeated at the foul line — hitting only eight of 19 free throws. Fine led Butler with 1 5 points. BUTLER 40 FRANKLIN 37 Battered by two succe ssive losses, and definitely eliminated from a chance at the I.C.C. championship, the Bulldogs returned to the victory column at Franklin on Janu- ary 29, defeating the Grizzlies, 40 to 37. The triumph was the tenth in 15 starts for Butler, and was achieved by a second- period rally that overcame a 20 to 15 Kranklin advantage at the half. Fine paced his team mates with six field goals. BUTLER 62 EARLHAM 53 A brilliant uphill baffle enabled the Bulldogs to gain their seventh league victory, a 62 to 53 conquest of Earlham, in the fieldhouso on February 4. Entering the final month of play without the services of Captain Art Cook, declared ineligible at the opening of the new semester, Butler won the final of the Earlham series with John Humbert In Cook ' s forward position. BALL STATE 60 BUTLER 35 History repeated itself at Muncie on February 6, as Ball State handed Butler one of its worst defeats of the season, 60 to 35, recalling the Cardinals rout of the Bulldogs at the close of last season. The revenge-seeking Cardinals overcame an II to 5 Butler margin to win the grudge match, passing the Bull- dogs midway through the initial period to hold a 28 to 17 lead at the half. LOUISVILLE 79 Butler 33 But Tony ' s battered Bulldogs still had not seen the worst of things to come. On February I I, with a squad further weakened by the illness of Norm Hartman, Hinkle led Butler to Louisville with little hope of revenging an earlier loss to the Kontuckians. The game ended with the hosts on the big end of a 79 to 33 score, and the Bulldogs returned home smarting from the school ' s worst hard- wood defeat in history. VALPARAISO 85 BUTLER 49 Instead of receiving a Valentine on February 14, the Bulldogs traveled to Valparaiso and endured their third consecutive drubbing, 85 to 49. This unprecedented string of setbacks blackened Butler ' s record with eight de- feats, and gave Fairview fans little to look forward to in the season ' s finale just two days away. Cranny, who scored his 209th point of the year, thereby smashed the season ' s scoring record of 208 points set by Jerry Steiner in 1939-40. BUTLER 61 FRANKLIN 48 But despite the hard blows suffered in the previous three games, the Bulldogs brought down the curtain on the hardwood season with a successful return match with Franklin before 3,500 fans in the fieldhouse on February 16. The score was Butler 61, Franklin 48. It was the Blue ' s 12th win of the year, and saw Cranny with 217 points establish a new season scoring mark. Row I : Fine, Funk, Compton, Toon, King.

With it returned Ray Sears, coach and recent dischargee from the Marines. In the past decade Sears has produced several Little State Champion teams from the Butler material. The team was blessed with the return of three lettermen just dis- charged from the services, Max Armer, Senior, Jack Rice, Junior; Urban Red Simonton, Junior; these men with the addition of eight freshmen formed the nucleus of the team this year. The regular season was preluded by the Purdue Relays where the Butler Bulldogs entered four relay teams. In the outdoor season the thinly dads ran against Earlham, Wabash, Rose Polytechnic, Indiana State, Cincinnati U., Ball State and Central Normal in dual and triangle meets and then were entered in the Little State and Big State meets as climax to the regular season. The prospects for a good team next year lie in the return of Simon- ton, and Rice, and such hopefuls as Leo Marshall, in the hurdles, Jim Cline, middle distance. Bob Casse, and Wilbur Hylton in the sprints. Armer is the only senior to graduate this year. Along with the bright aspect of a good track team next year Sears has great hopes for a champion cross country team next fall. Now that it has returned it can be said that track is here to stay, as it has left its impression in the record books and annals of Fairview athletics. Cline, Gerrish. Simonton.

Fraternities, which by the second semester of the school year were back to their pre-war mem- bership, and sororities, with their war-time job well done, felt and fostered the revivi ng s spirit. F R AT E R N Delta Tau Delta Delta Tau Delta was founded at Bethany College, Vir- ginia, in 1859. The Rainbow or W.W.W. Society, founded at the University of Mississippi in 1848 amalga- mated with Delta Tau Delta in 1886. Early the following year Beta Zeta chapter was chartered, and the Delts acquired the first fraternity house on the Butler campus. The past year saw the foundations of the chapter strengthened for future growth. Much credit is due the officers who guided the chapter through the past year: Russell Miller, president; John Carmack, vice-president; George Downey, secretary; Norval Lyon, corresponding secretary; and Bill Robinson, now in the Army Air Force, succeeded by Tim Jones, treasurer. 1945-46 has been a year of accomplishment for the Delts. First place was awarded to the group for the Spring Sing and Homecoming house decorations, as well as capturing the trophy for the Victory Bond Drive and the National Clothing Collection Campaign. George Downey, Russell Miller, and Ted Popoff were pledged to Blue Key. Tim Jones and Bill Robinson were initiated into Phi Eta Sigma. Russ Miller was Junior Class presi- dent and president of the Interfraternity Council. The seniors elected George Downey treasurer of the class. Other members of the chapter to hold offices were Bill Wildman, general of the Loyalty Legion, and John Car- mack, vice-president of Alpha Phi Omega and Sopho- more Cotillion chairman. Bob Barnes, George Downey, Norval Lyon, Russell Miller, and Ted Popoff were mem- bers of Sphinx. Many Delts have returned to the chapter from the armed forces during the year, and many more are soon to be expected. A fine group of men has been pledged which will undoubtedly carry on the Delta Tau Delta tradition of service to the school and fraternity.

The fraternity entered its thirty-first year at Butler with the anticipation of one of its most successful years. The active chapter, as a result of graduation and the draft, started with a smell but closely knit group. After several rush dinners held in September, the new pledges were formally in- troduced to the campus at open house. The pledges held a Thanksgiving Dance on November 21, and the tradi- ti nal formal spring dance once again made its appear- ance. Exchange dinners with the sororities found their place on the social calendar, also. The fraternity, which has a goal of high scholastic at- tainment, was represented in the honoraries by Curtiss Hentgen and Earl O ' Brian in Phi Eta Sigma, Curtiss Hent- gen and Damon Auble in Sphinx, and Curtiss Hentgen fn Blue Key. Curt also was chosen to appear in Who ' s Who. Additional honor came to the fraternity when Charles Millet was elected president of the freshman class, and Earl O ' Brian was elected sophomore treasurer. Jack Kesler was chairman of a highly successful Freshman Rose Dance. For the year 1945-46 Lambda Chi Alpha has been under the guidance of Curtiss Hentgen and Damon Auble, presidents; Earl O ' Brian, secretary, and Hugh Fowler, treasurer. Lambda Chi Alpha is thankful for this year which brings many of her sons back home for keeps. Row I: Hentgen, Fowler, Auble, Flack, Rothkopf, O ' Brian.

Phi Delta Thcta The Indiana Gamma chapter of Phi Delta Theta is well in its eighty-seventh year. During these years it has always striven for the highest goals obtainable in life, culture, knowledge, and true world citizenship. As the Phis welcome back the brothers who have served their country during the third war through which the fraternity has lived, they bow their heads in reverence for those who gave their lives for their hopes of world peace and harmony. Although handicapped by the lack of the Stone Castle, the capable leadership of Brother Howard Manifold has led the jolly crew through a very successful year on the Butler campus. He was assisted by Leroy Compton, pledge master; Robert Wells, secretary, and Norman Miller, treasurer. Their work has been realized, not only in help to members to attain high ideals in college work and social life, but to work for and aid the university and carry on complete cooperation with the Greek organizations on the campus. The Phis contributed greatly to Butler athletics, lead- ing in intra-mural activities and furnishing a host of varsity men for the Blue and White. Among these were Herod Toon, Marion Fine, Jerry Cranny, Charles Scott, James Bivin, Harry Renfro, John Agnew, Leroy Comp- ton, Joe Price, George Emmelman, and Paul Bailey. Phi Delta Theta tied for first place in the wood-gathering contest for the Homecoming bonfire. Robert Wells was layout editor of the 1946 Drift. Joseph Howett, editor of the 1945 Drift, was a member of Sphinx. The chapter wishes to express its sincere thanks to Brothers Hilton U. Brown, James L. Murray, and Paul V. Brown who, with the alumni and the mothers ' club, have contributed much to the chapter ' s success. Row I: Manifold, Bivln. Burris, Howett, Pedlow, Compton.

Sisma Chi With victory in the air and peace in the hearts of the peoples of the world, Rho chapter of Sigma Chi re- established its peacetime program. Along with the na- tion and the university, Rho ' s program was one of re- conversion. Reconversion was carried on in all phases of fraternity life. The house was completely re-conditioned during the summer, and several new pieces of furniture and new floor coverings were obtained through the efforts of the ever loyal mother ' s club and alumni. The Sigs acquired a very lovely and gracious lady, Mrs. Hazel Whittenberger, as their new housemother. The Sigs have held a successful political year on the campus. Brother Bev Maxam was treasurer of the junior class and a representative on Student Council. James Dirlam was elected sophomore president and was the other Sigma Chi representative on the Student Council. Our president, Bill Thompson, was also elected to the presidencies of the Butler Y.M.C.A. and Sphinx. Founded on June 28, 1855 at Miami University, Sigma Chi installed the Rho chapter at Butler on April 10, 1865. This, our eighty-first year of continuous service to the school and to our young men who have entered the halls of Butler University, has been a year of great satisfaction. The Sigs can look back over four long hard war years and point with pride to the magnificent job the older brothers have done to keep intact the Rho chapter. They can point with pride to the very successful accomplish- ments of the 1945-46 school year. With veterans re- turning to school and to the fraternity, it gives us all a great feeling of satisfaction when the Brothers can say reciprocally to one another concerning their specific ac- complishments, Well done, Brother, well done. -—-_ 4. ■i ' w ; .5i1 Mrs. Hazel Whiltenberger. • ' a- ' Wjh %miM . hr4 Row I: Thompson, Faulconer, Marks, Patterson, Maxam.

Sigma Nu Epsilon Mu chapter of Sigma Nu has enjoyed the most active and enthusiastic year since pre-war days. It can be happily said that many members who served in the armed torces are now back; among them are Ray Bagley, temporarily listed as missing, John Shirley, Jack Demlow, and Alan Chab. The chapter placed in the Y.M.C.A. Spring Sing, tied for first place in the Homecoming bonfire contest, and fielded a team in every phase of intramural sports. An old custom was revived this year when several under- privileged children were entertained at the house the week before Christmas. Harold Neeriemer played Santa Claus at the party, which was enjoyed as much by the boys as it was by the youngsters. The annual pledge dance was an elaborate and successful affair. Many Sigma Nus have individually brought home the bacon for the good of the chapter during the year. David Patrick was elected president of the senior class, and Dean Neeriemer was chosen junior prom chairman. Dean also was selected to Who ' s Who. Jack Bailey was editor of the Collegian and secretary-treasurer of the Interfraternity Council. Ralph Wooden and Bob Liebert were on the basketball team. Officers who led Sigma Nu through the year were Jack Kelly, commander; Jack Bailey, lieutenant-commander; Jack Stauch, chaplain; Victor Lomax, recorder; William Pittman, marshall; and Donald White, sentinel. Any ac- count of the chapter ' s activities would not be complete without mention of the fact that Mrs. Ora Wingfield this year celebrated her thirteenth year as housemother. Sigma Nu came to the Butler campus May 7, 1926, and has the distinction of being the youngest fraternity here.

Lambda Kappa Sigma, national pharmaceutical sor- ority, was -founded in 1913 at the Massachusetts College of Pharmacy by Ethel J. Heath, librarian of the college. It has as its object the promotion of happiness and useful- ness of its members and the creating of a center of en- joyment, friendship and culture for women in Pharmacy. Being one of the two pharmaceutical sororities in the United States, Lambda Kappa Sigma has grown until there are now twenty-one chapters. It also has the dis- tinction of being the only pharmaceutical sorority in the state of Indiana. Phi chapter of Lambda Kappa Sigma was installed at the old Indianapolis College of Pharmacy June 8, 1938, at which time there were eleven charter members. The organization is for women who are majoring in the de- partment of Pharmacy. Membership in this group is limited to students who have maintained at least a B average in all of their academic work and who possess the qualities of leadership and cooperation. As a result of the merger of the Indianapolis College of Pharmacy and Butler University last October, fast growth in mem- bership is anticipated as the interest of women in phar- macy increases. At present the total membership of Phi chapter is twenty-seven, of which seven are students. The presidency of Phi chapter of Lambda Kappa Sigma is held by Norma Ellingwood; Flo-nita Smith, vice- president, Vera Groh, Secretary, and Pat McKown, Treasurer. Mrs. Edward H.

The men ' s division was founded this year out of the past B.I.A. which was composed of both men and women. This will mark the first time in the history of the university that there have been two separate sections of the B.I.A. The charter members of the Men ' s Division B.I.A. are Thomas E. Curtis, G eorge J. Mueller, Edward Morris, Kenneth E. Ordel, Howard Scharffin, Harold C. Lillie, Donald K. Hack, George W. Neal, and S. W. Heald. One of the highlights of the fall season was the membership drive climaxed by a rush party. Being very interested in the political affairs of the campus the group has taken an active participation in the school politics during the school year. Intramural sports have been of special interest to many of the members who played on the Crew ' s football, basketball, and baseball teams. President of Men ' s B.I.A. is Howard Scharffin. Other officers are Harold Lillie, vice-president; Donald Hack, secretary; and George Neal, treasurer. Faculty sponsor is Dr. Karl S.

Hampton Hall was decorated for Homecoming, and the girls participated actively in other homecoming activities as well. An open house was held in the fall, and later a dance and dinner were given in celebration of the Christmas season. Each month a birthday dinner was given, honoring girls whose birthdays had fallen dur- ing the month. Many of the extra-curicular activities of the campus were enjoyed by the girls. Among the most popular of these were Icthus, Choir, Psychology Club, Welwyn Club, Sociology Club, A.W.S., Y.W.C.A., and W.A.A. Of the thirty-two girls in the house, ten were in the band.

WAGONER SARGENT-GERKE CO. 21 JEWEL ENCINE Like a fine watch, the AHison engine has a 21-jcwcl movement assuring dependabiHty and long hfe. The jewels are the major silver-plated and copper-lead cast sleeve-type bearings, which absorb terrific loads and high temperatures from shafts revolving 3,000 times a minute. Twenty ears ago, Allison engineers pioneered the development oi higher-precision sleeve- type bearings to enable engines to develop higher horsepower. Today, installed in virtually :very aircraft engine made in this country — is well as Allison — these bearings have made good — at horsepowers far beyond the dreams of the Allison pioneers. Now Allison searings are available for Jther fine engines and Tiachines to serve a A ' orld at peace. CFNERM MOTORS C.rr StnJjy Afternoon GENERAL MCI TORS S ' l ' MPHON ' ' OI- THl- AIR -.NBC .
