Text from Pages 1 - 262 of the 1948 volume:

Jjc mlii,.. ' ! FOOTNOTES FOR YOUR HISTORY AND MINE ON OUR LIFE AND TIMES AT BUTLER UNIVERSITY 1948 DRIFT... It is the sincere idea of the members of the staff of the 1948 DRIFT that a college yearbook is by definition and nature a student ' s volume. It should be published by a student staff and find its material and cause for existence in the needs of the student body. This is the thought behind the theme of this year ' s book REMINISCINGLY YOURS. With this conception foremost In their minds, this year ' s staff has faithfully labored to produce a year book that is representative of the average student attending Butler. The measure of success we may have attained In our endeavors will be di- rectly proportionate to the amount of enjoyment and satisfaction you will receive from this volume not this year, but in future years when this DRIFT may be your only tie-back to the years you spent at Butler.

MINISTERIAL ASSOCIATION 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 organiza- tions of Butler. Membership 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. In conjunction with Student Volunteers, Morning Devotions, a worship period for all students, meeting daily, Tuesday through Friday, has been maintained. Also, the Sunday worship service in Sweeney Chapel is a cooperative enterprise. DEAN O. L SHELTON SCHOOL OF RELIGION Butler is honored with one of the largest and best equipped ministerial training schools in the country. The School of Religion was established in 1924, and moved to its graceful Georgian building in 1942. The building houses Sweeney Chapel, classroom, seminars, offices the theological library, including 30,000 volumes, the largest collection of Disciple literature. 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.

' J - ' ;i One of the newest of the colleges at Butler is the College of Pharmacy, which was established in 1945, through a merger with the Indianapolis College of Pharmacy.

STUDENT COUNCIL Student Government not directly supervised by the administration and faculty is under the jurisdiction of the Student Council. All class and queenship elections are conducted by the Council along with the regulation of all campus organizations except social fraternities and sororities. Student representatives on certain faculty committees are nominated by the Council. Parking regulations were set up by the Council. The Council consists of 14 members elected by the classes which they represent; six seniors, five juniors, and three sophomores. The two sophomores receiving the most votes fill two-year terms as do the three members who are elected juniors. The other sophomore and the three elected seniors serve for one year only. The president of the Council is also the president of the student body. Betty Swann served as president this year. Scott Christie served as secretary, and John Scales as chairman of the elections committee. Other members were Maxine Brock, Linn Hudson, Betty Jo Morrison, Audrey Napp, Rebecca Taggert, Robert Terrican, Patricia Bond, John Hangsgen, Rosemary Ronshiem, Norma Brown, John Ellis, and David Hamp. Professor Virginia Brunson and Dr. A. Dale Beeler served as faculty advisers of the Student Council. i A. W. S. The Association of Women Stuclen ' I ' s at Butler is a part of the national A. W. S., an organization for all college girls. This year a scholarship cup was presented on Honor Day. An automatic penalty for violation of residence requirements was installed by the Judiciary Council, A. W. S. governing body. The A. W. S. booklet is being revised to serve as a handbook. Freshmen were introduced to the organizations on campus at a Fall tea. Gilbert Forbes spoke at the December meeting. There were two Spring meetings one of which was a style show. Leading the association activities were Betty Keough, president; Henrietta Rohde, secretary; and Mildred Marshall, treasurer. Sponsors were Mrs. Margaret T. Fisher and Elizabeth B. Ward. K-rr ' Y. M.

A. co- sponsored by the Y. W. C. A. were the WSSF campaign and the coke Forums. Other activities of the organization included co-spon- soring with the Y. W. C. A. the Geneva Stunts, the Summer Shuffle, and the Freshman Mixer. The Freshman Camp was again held in September for fifty boys entering Butler in the fall term.

V i ■ 1 Y. W. C. A. The Y. W. C. A. opened the school year by sponsoring, wl+h the Y. M. C. A., a Freshman Mixer in the fieldhouse. The Y. W. also worked with the Y. M. in publishing the Rhinie Guide. Again the two Y ' s were co-sponsors of a forum featuring Dr. Clarence Efroymson speaking on Palestine. Alone, this time, the Y. W. carried out its annual carolling and wreath-hanging ceremony in the halls of Butler during the Christmas season. The two Y ' s sponsored the World Student Service Fund Drive in February to raise funds for world students relief. In March Geneva Stunts were held to raise money to send Y delegates to the Geneva Confer- ence in June. Late Spring found the Y.

THE BUTLER The Bu+ler Collegian, Fairview ' s four- mornings-a-week daily, stormed Ihrough another year during 1947-48, and as usual came out with no one seriously injured. In other words, it was just another typical year for the Collegian: the staff took things too seriously, the readers gen- erally ignored the staff, and the faculty alternately blessed and damned the paper and all concerned with it. Only the fact that the paper continued to be favorite class-time reading ma- terial made the year brighter for Editors Bill Tobin and Brooks (Buckey) Walters. Tobin was around as head of staff for the first semester, and Walters came in to try his luck as editor-in-chief during the last term. During the first half of the school year, the paper began printing cross-word puzzles, sponsored a special train to the Cincinnati football game, and again held its annual Cheer Drive for Indianapolis ' needy. The puzzles proved great fav- orites of students and a pain in the neck to professors; the Cincy train was an all-around good trip except the inside lights were kept on all the way home, and the Cheer Drive was a tremendous suc- cess, with the Independent Student Asso- ciation walking off with top honors and a gold cup. Cheer Drive COLLEGIAN The second semester was highliqh+ed by reports of the Freshman, Sophomore and Junior Queenships, the conclusion of the basketball season and support of the Bulldog spring sports card Walters ' staff also was host to high school stu- dents from over the state at the annual Journalism Field Day.

Rex Van Trees as business man- ager, Walters and Dick Agnew as city editors, and Ed Irwin as sports editor. Georgia Gianakos replaced Joy as man- aging editor for the second term, and Agnew was promoted to associate edi- tor. Keith Haymond, cross-word puzzle creator, became editorial director, and Bob Collins served as sports editor. Bill Larkworthy became a city editor, sharing that position with Jack Averitt, Bill Pace and Bill Roberts. Assistant city editors were Royce Stokes, Rosemary Ronsheim, Dale Hall, and Bob Darmer. Burdett Bissleberg was appointed feature editor and Molly O ' Dell was made women ' s editor. The business staff remained un- changed. Mrs. Naomi Whitesell was in charge of the copy desk and Everett Miller re- mained as king of the mechanical end. Bill Tobin, editor-in-chief. Bucky Walters and Joy Mudd, city and managing editor.

BLUE GILLS Blue Gills is an organization for girls who are both interested and proficient in swimming. Those who wish to become members are re- quired to pass the American Red Cross exam- ination for Advanced Swimmers. The purpose of the club is to further improve the swimming ability of its members. During the past year the club has participated in meets at Purdue University and the Uni- versity of Cincinnati. Blue Sills ' competitive team consists of Betty Blaclcwell and Betty Maxwell, crawl and free style; Nancy Owen, back stroke; Barbara Jungclaus, breast stroke; and Virginia Hiner, diving. The outstanding event of the year was the annual water ballet entitled, Holidays. This was presented on January 14 and was con- sidered a success by all who attended. The club ' s officers for the year include Betty Maxwell, president; Patricia Coate, vice-presi- dent; and Patricia Pearson, treasurer. i Front Row: Zarro, Sweeney, Sallee, Haddath, Perry, Dillon, Long, Ranch, Parchman, Har+man, G. Long, B. Long, White. Back Row: Curtis, Thorn, G. Harman, Glickert, Buttz, Beck. Wilson, Pribble, Richardson, Dale, M. Harman, Embry, Smith. ' EQUITEERS The Equifeers Club was formed last year to promote the interest of Butler students in horses and horseback riding. Everyone is eligible and new members are welcome. Meetings at school are held weekly, and on the third Sunday of each month, the Equiteers have a combination meeting and social. At these meetings, we hear reports of the various shows and events from men who are well known in the field of training horses. Among the social activities we have held this past year are picnics, barn dances, and parties. All in all, this year has been a most successful year ably led by our officers. Bill Glickert, president, and Geraldine Harmon, secretary- treasurer. NEWMAN CLUB The Newman Club is an organizaHon of Catholic students to promote social and religious activities. The first club was organized at the University of Pennsylvania in 1893. The Club entered its second year of post war activity with the election of officers in February. They were James Touhy, president; Patty Welch, vice-president; Elizabeth lovine, secretary; Bill Sylvester, treasurer; Jerry Cranny, social chairman, and Bob Gastineau, publicity chairman. Father Raymond Bosler succeeded Father William Buhmeier as Chaplain. Mr. James M. Smith served as faculty sponsor. Monthly Communion Breakfasts and instruction meetings were held through-out the school year. YOUNG REPUBLICAN CLUB The purpose of the Young Republican Club is to further the interests of the Republican Party and to acquaint members of the club with governmental procedure. The Young Republicans list as some of their many activities: Work at the polls both in the spring and fall elections of the past year, work at the central vote counting in the primary elections, active co-operation with Young Republican clubs, and representa- tives sent to the Republican editors convention. A highlight of the past year was the reception and tea given for the Republican candidate for Indianapolis mayor, William Wemmer. Officers were Bob Coyner, president; Jack Davis, vice-president; Jane Wagle, secre- tary; James Mills, treasurer. mtm I ' n 1114  % „ tfi ICHTHUS The Deparfment of Religion in the College of Liberal Arts is for the purpose of instruct- ing and preparing students for work in the religious field. Also, the department serves to broaden the understanding of the Bible and deepen the interest of students other than those intending to major in religion. Closely connected with the undergraduate department is the School of Religion, which is the graduate school on the campus. The undergraduate students are encouraged to participate in graduate activities such as chapel services. Student Volunteers, and the Ministerial Association. The students of both schools are bound together by the common purpose of Christian service and fellowship. The undergraduate club of the department is Ichthus, established to help those who are committed to Christian service, and those who are religiously minded. The club, which meets bi-monthly, is open to all undergraduate students. The program is varied, but it has its central theme in Christian living. The officers for the first semester were Lloyd Tatlock, president; Lester Ringham, vice- president; Betty Harper, secretary; and Barbara Williams, treasurer. Dr. E. R. Andry, head of the department, is the faculty advisor. INDEPENDENT STUDENT ASSOCIATION m smmfmswm ' iAi i -i . R. HAROLD VAN CLEAVE Early In the fall of 1947, a group of unorganized students met to discuss the need for coordinated activity among students who were independent of the organized social fraternities and sororities. From this early meeting, the Independent Students Associa- tion of Butler University grew to its present status in campus affairs. The purpose of the I. S. A. is clearly stated in the Constitution, to further the interests of the unorganized students of Butler University and to do our part in aiding the University as a whole. Charter officers of the I. S. A. were elected in October and included: Rex Van Trees, president; Jud Haggerty, vice-president; Ann Jensen, secretary; and Ruth Gosey, treasurer. The I. S. A. was active in all school affairs during the year and, with the support of the unorganized students of Butler, backed several successful independent candidates in school elections. Independent candidate Elizabeth lovine won the coveted Home- coming Queenship and Georgia Gianakos was selected as one of the five Drift Beauty Queens. Sarge Hunt was elected president of the Junior class and Bill Pace won the vice- presidency of that class. In the Sophomore class elections, John Miller was elected president; Patty Welch, secretary, and Jud Haggerty, treasurer. The I. S. A. piled up an overwhelming majority of points in the Butler Collegian sponsored Christmas Cheer Fund drive and was awarded the gold cup offered for that charitable enterprise. BUTLER ' S MUSIC MAKERS BUTLER UNIVERSITY BAND The Butler Band under the direction of Charles A. Henzie, has again come through with flying colors in providing a well-rounded musical program for the University. During the year, the band represented Butler on numerous occasions. Sporting smart new blue uniforms, the band appeared at the first football game and continued throughout the rest of the season to stimulate interest and school spirit with unusual formations and novel musical numbers. The band journeyed to Wabash College and also accompanied the football team to Cincinnati for the game there. The numerous other activities of the band were giving intermission music and half- time routines at the home basketball games, marching in the Homecoming parade and playing for Founder ' s Day, Honor Day, Baccalaureate and Commencement exer- cises. The policy of using swingy yells received an even more enthusiastic response than in the past, and the presentation of drill formations at the basketball games by the high stepping majorettes and color guard under the leadership of the band drum major, Hal Wilkins was heartily appreciated. Front Row: Casler, S+elnbach, Hanley. Back Row: Schreiber, Kyser, Forbes, Stultz, Wilklns, Brouder, Keller, Kutter, Smith. DRUM MAJORETTES— COLOR GUARD The Butler Color Guard presented a colorful accompaniment to the band during the year. Clad in traditional blue jackets and white skirts, the girls marched with the band in each of its appearances. Members of the group are chosen on the basis of appearance, scholarship, and ability to execute marching drills. During the year the girls must maintain a school determined grade average to continue in the color guard. The color guard made its first appearance at the opening football game. Football fans saw the girls execute baton twirling and marching formations at the half-time of each home game. They made their first presentation away from home with the band at Wabash. During basketball season, formations were made before the games with the presentation of the colors, and unusual drill formations were executed during the half-time period. Color guard members learned these formations and marching routines along with the band during their daily rehearsals. PHILHARMONIC CHOIR The Butler-Jordan Philharmonic Choir directed by Mr. Joseph Lau+ner has seen active service this past school year giving on the average of two concerts a week. Mennbers of the choir are selected from Butler University and Arthur Jordan Conservatory of Music and are required to rehearse at least eight hours per week. Philharmonic has been a noted choir of the midwest ever since its organization in 1940. The choir ' s members drawn by the spirit of the Philharmonic give themselves in unswerving loyalty to the building of a successful choir and to the presentation of meaningful music. BUTLER CHEER LEADERS Perhaps some of the unsung heroes of fhe year round sporfs are fhose lads and lasses of our cheer leader team. For a group, these vivacious school supporters should be given more credit. You can always find them in the midst of the action rooting, shouting and giving the team the moral boost that promotes the way to a Bulldog victory. Keen eyes watching — they are right in there with a touchdown or field goal yell. Yes, it is time to have a cheer given in their honor as we salute the spark plugs of our Butler spirit. May these leaders and those to follow keep the victory spirit on the football gridiron or basketball court at its ringing peak. LmmkiM ImM. . . . ATHLETIC DIRECTOR PAUL D. HINKLE Every now and then a coach will drop in on a particular ins+ifuHon, look around, and decide that he likes the place so darn well that he just takes off his hat and coat and stays around awhile. Paul D. (Tony) Hinkle dropped in on Butler 27 years ago. In the years that have followed neither he nor the university have had occasion to regret the decision. Hink has become as much a part of Butler as the after class coke session. Arriving in 1921, when the school was still situated in Irvington, Hinkle has done more than any other man to bring Butler athletics to a position of prominence in the mid-west. I 1947 BUTLER FOOTBALL In better circles it would be considered bad taste to rationalize a preceding season by frankly stating, We got a raw deal. But after looking over the 1947 Butler grid record of five victories, three losses and one tie, an observer cannot help but think that our Bulldogs got just that. Fighting hard to overcome the many obstacles that were hurled at them, the Bluemen defeated St. Joseph, Wabash, DePauw, Western Michigan and Valparaiso. They fell before Ohio, Western Reserve and Cincinnati and marked off a 6-6 deadlock with Ball State. The first blow came a few days before the opening game of the season. Then, the stalwart o!d patriachs who guide the I. C. C. ' s reeling grid destinies, ruled against the eligibility of seven varsity men who had transferred here from other institutions. These men had been practicing with the team since the month before the season opened, but evidently I. C. C. didn ' t find its rule book until the eve of B. U. ' s first grid encounter. Despite these near heartbreaking setbacks, the Bulldogs were out to prove that they were able to step with the small midwestern powerhouses. There is little doubt that they achieved their goal. The injury and ruling riddled Fairviewers lost three of their four Mid-Amer- ican loop engagements — but — all three of those de- feats were by one touchdown margins. And all three were such hardfought evenly matched games that even the most partisian observer will admit that the score could have easily gone the other way in either or all. Another sad note of the late grid year was the aban- donment of the age old Butler-DePauw football rivalry. This, the second oldest gridiron renewal in the state, was concluded because the venerable and clean fight- ing Tiger just couldn ' t keep up with Mr. Bull anymore. Individually the Butlermen did well. Fleet halfback Orville Williams garnered a berth on the Little Ail- American team. Center Captain Ott Hurrle was named to the Indianapolis Star ' s Big All-State squad. Captain-elect Francis (Moe) Moriarty, keeping intact his record of never losing a yard while wearing a Butler uniform, Bill Kuntz, Les Esarey, Knute Dobkins, Kenny Smock, Dick Bennett and Ray McSemek were all named to state honorary teams. 947 FOOTBALL BUTLER 6— BALL STATE 6 Forced to change their Irneup as well as their battle plans on the eve of the ganne due to the sudden ap- pearance of the I. C. C. transfer ruling, the down- hearted Bulldogs f ought doggedly to gain a standoff with the Cardinals. OHIO 14— BUTLER 7 That first trip into the Mid-American grid realm ended in disaster. After leading for three periods, Butler tried vainly to stem the Bobcats. Led by the brilliant King Brady, the men of Athens pushed over two mark- ers in the final period to sew it up. Workhorse Moe Moriarty scored Butler ' s lone six pointer before being forced from the game by injuries. BUTLER2I— ST. JOSEPH It was Butler all the way. The Bulldog machinery, jarred loose by the transfer ruling, was definitely back in working order as the Hinklemen rode easily over the hapless Puma ' s. Williams, Weidekamp and Bennett tallied one score apiece and Ray McSemek add three one pointers. BUTLER 14— WABASH This was the one the boys wanted most. The old rivals battled furiously on the Crawfordsville grounds, as Butler power added up to a two touchdown victory. OTTO HURRLE Captain 1947 1947 FOOTBALL WESTERN RESERVE 6— BUTLER As one Indianapolis paper put it, Western Reserve eked out a win over Francis Moriar+y. Butler ' s great line crasher gained more yards than the combined efforts of the Western Reserve team could muster but his teammates couldn ' t get going. The Irishman gained better than 250 yards. BUTLER 27— VALPARAISO 6 Like their medieval namesakes, the Crusaders v ere unable to dislodge their adversaries on unfamiliar ground. And further prove that Butler had outgrov n the antedated I. C. C. was entered into the books. CINCINNATI 25— BUTLER 19 For a moment it looked as if Butler might turn the tide. Behind I 2 to at the half, the Bulldogs fought back to tie the score in the third period. Then they watched the Bearcats sew it up again. Kenny Smock, Dave Peterson and Moriarty did the Butler scoring. BUTLER 21— WESTERN MICHIGAN 20 Nobody left early on this one. Battling uphill all the way, the Bluemen came from behind three times and then watched with their hearts in their throats as a last second Bronco field goal attempt went wide of the mark. Orville Williams and Dick Bennett were the fair haired boys of the Bulldog attack as they teamed up to fashion all three scores, but it was Ray McSemek who rung the curtain by virtue of his three extra points. BUTLER 35— DEPAUW Butler backs crossed the double strips in an almost endless procession as the Tiger and the Bulldog wrote 30 to an old and popular gridiron rivalry. Jim Ros- entihl (twice), Orville Williams, Tom Sleet and Ralph Fulk did the scoring honors. Automatic McSemek threw in five conversions.

Schwomeyer graduated from Butler in 1942 and has been in fairly close contact with his ole alma mammy ever since. After serving as football and track coach at Carmel and Warren Central high schools respectively, Schv o came back home in 1945 to serve as the jack-of-all trades of the athletic staff. Schwomeyer is director of intramural athletics, assistant football coach and freshman basketball mentor. Tony Hinkle ' s assistant basketball coach is a fellow who should know a wee bit about the game. He ' s Bob Dietz, holder of the university three year scoring record and an all time Butler hardwood great. A 1941 graduate, Dietz spends his spare time playing pro- fessional basketball with the Indianapolis Kautskys. Football assistant, Chet McNerney, came to Butler by way of Indiana University. McNerney graduated from the Blooming- ton institution in 1939 and received his M. S. degree there in 1946. In addition to his coaching duties he serves as instructor in the college of education. John Rabold and Jim Hauss are the two men responsible for Butler ' s hard charging line. They ' re well qualified for the job. Both are former Bulldog line greats. Rabold was 240-lb. all-state tackle in 1939. While in service he was named to the A. P. all-southwest service eleven. At that time he was player coach at Hondo Army Air Field. Hauss, who also fills in as varsity golf instructor, won quite a name for himself as a Bulldog tackle in 1937, ' 38 and ' 39. He formerly served as line coach at the University of Iowa. Knute Dobklns Bill Sylvester ( t i. m%. ■ m r-mmm 1947-48 BASKETBALL BUTLER 78, ALUMNI 49 This annual get- ' j-o-gefher was held November 5, and quite obviously had its annual result. Jerry Cranny led the varsity waltz by counting 12 pointers. However, Woody Norris proved to be one old timer who hadn ' t forgotten the size of the hoop by dunking 23 markers for the evening ' s high honors. NORTHWESTERN 53, BUTLER 52 Butler copped just about every statistical advantage except the all important one that follows the words Final Score. Out- scoring the Wildcats from the field, 20 to 19, the Bulldogs were forced to watch the season ' s first scheduled game go through the hoop while helplessly standing by the foul line. The Hinkle- men held a 3l-to-24 halftime advantage in the December 6 tilt at Chicago. WISCONSIN 61, BUTLER 53 Superior Badger height paid off in points as the defending Big Nine champs capitalized on 35 Butler fouls to ride under the wire, December 8, at Madison, Wisconsin. Four Bulldog first stringers went for a drink of water during the second stanza. Ralph (Buckshot) O ' Brien managed to stay around long enough to drop 2! points and thus become high point man for the evening. BUTLER 67, ST. JOSEPH 49 Be it ever so humble . . . There ' s nothing stately about the spacious confines of the Butler Fieldhouse, but it serves well as a Bulldog basket castle. The home opener December 13, was a complete success. The Pumas were never in the ball game as Butler reserves had ample opportunity to polish up their game. Gentleman Jim Doyle was top point getter with an aggregate of I 8. BUTLER 52, CANTERBURY 30 Emily Post could have given a long dissertation about the un- gentlemanly way the host Bulldogs treated the Bishops on December 20, but Fairview fans found a certain satisfaction in their team ' s manner of dropping the book. Thirteen points totaled high, and Big Jawn Barrowcliff had just that many. THE HOOSIER BUTLER 52 BUTLER 64 A few days before the Classic, Hinkle stated that he had tried for nearly 20 years to get the state ' s Big Four of basketball in- side the Pieldhouse on the same evening. Any rabid Butler fan will tell you that the ensuing gannes were well worth the wait. The nights of January I and 2 probably will go down in history as two of the biggest in Butler history. A definite underdog when hostilities began, Butler rode out of the two day session as the only team able to win two games. Purdue fell first in a red hot contest that followed virtually the same pattern as the overtime session the Boilermakers dropped to the Bulldogs the previous season. Some 15,000 followers of the noble art of hoopla were on their feet and in a state of near hysteria as a gangling Purdue quintet put on a final minute spurt that came far too close for comfort. O ' Brien shov ed the way for both teams with 18 ducats. January 2 was the day of a topsy-turvy affair that started all Indiana and ended in a Butler rout. For the first few minutes it looked as if the Merry Macs were going to run right off and leave Butler groping for air. However, once the Bulldogs found CLASSIC PURDUE 50 INDIANA 51 their amazing ou+-on-the-floor shooting eye, Bufler began to pull away. Doyle ' s 17 counters were good for high honors. Fire- man Charlie Maas followed with a 16 total. In the other two games, Indiana outran Notre Dame, 72 to 46, and the Irish in turn dropped Purdue, 42 to 40. NOTRE DAME 71. BUTLER 47 The fifty some Butler fans who hazarded the icy roads to South Bend on January 7 could talk only of the most amazing exhibition of basket shooting they had ever witnessed. The Irish, always red hot on their home floor, were completely out of this world as the varsity hit better than 70 per cent of its shots. Butler played hard and well, but no team can stand up long against such as that. O ' Brien once again was high for Butler. He had 13 points. CRANNY BUTLER 62, WABASH 38 Hard luck Jerry Cranny, the guy who seemed to be stand- ing around when all the bad breaks came, managed to break the Double Whammy for one night on January 10. In so doing, he led the Bulldogs with 13 points. Butler ' s home floor invincibility was proven once again as it was Butler all the way. BUTLER 67, DePAUW 42 January 13 was D-Day for the Bulldogs in more ways than one. After the 1947 tilt at Sreencastle — won by DePauw — the Tiger press made some very caustic remarks con- cerning the abilities of certain Butler players. Of these. Buckshot O ' Brien received the most abuse. So the diminutive forward helped himself to exactly 20 points as his teammates played the defending I. C. C. champs right into the boards. BUTLER 61, VALPARAISO 45 Back home on January 24 and still an ungracious host, Butler pummelled the Crusaders for their sixth home floor victory of the season. O ' Brien and Barrowcliff contrib- uted most to the evening ' s scoring. They counted 17 points apiece. BUTLER 57, OHIO STATE 47 The Bulldogs found the Columbus goalry to their liking on January 26. After building up a 33-to-20 halftime lead, the Hinklemen coasted in for victory number eight. O ' Brien counted 16 and Doyle added 15 more to the Bulldog cause. CINCINNATI 72, BUTLER 53 The defending Mid-American Conference co-champions met in the first of their two scheduled battles on January 27 and the cramped Queen City court proved to be too close for the Bulldogs. Richter, of Cincinnati, made a cold Butler night even more miserable by firing 29 points through the meshes. BUTLER 59, OHIO 35 Just two people in the Butler Fieldhouse on the last day of January knew that as Charlie Maas tossed in four baskets before the fans had hardly settled in their seats, the great set shot artist was giving his all for Butler ' s honor and reputation. One was Maas himself; the other was Coach Tony Hinkle. BARROWCLIFF CINCINNATI 58, BUTLER 56 The biggest noise in the Fieldhouse St. Valentine ' s day wasn ' t in the least bit retroactive to the 4,000 some ex- tremely partisian spectators, it was merely the referee ' s whistle. Fifty-three fouls were called as the two mid- American first place claimants — shaping up what looks like the nucleus of a red hot rivalry — battled right into the final seconds. Trailing all the way the Bulldogs finally caught up in the final 18 seconds as Jerry Cranny slipped under to knot the score at 56 all. But Charlie Clickner picked the remaining few seconds to pot his only field goal of the evening and thus assure the Bearcats of undisputed possession of the top rung. BUTLER 59, OHIO UNIVERSITY 35 Shortly before the game (it was later revealed), Maas re- ceived a telephone call from an unidentified New York gambler who offered him $500 to see that Butler won by less than nine points. The enraged player answered with an emphatic No. Maas then went onto the floor to see personally that Ohio didn ' t get close. After Maas ' opening minute flurry, the disheartened Athenians just couldn ' t get started and never were able to make the game close. Charlie ' s rebounding kept Ohio from getting the ball off its own backboard one time during the entire first half. NOTRE DAME 53, BUTLER 52 Perhaps more than even the new Pontiac automobile pre- sented him a few minutes before the game; certainly more than any other game on the schedule this was the one Hink wanted. Notre Dame was fresh from an upset victory over Ken- tucky two nights before. And three straight Irish lickings were fresh in Bulldogs ' minds. If the words of the sage, He asks you not how you won or lost, but how you played the game are true, then Butler has a date with destiny. Many times right down to the final heart-breaking seconds it looked as though the Butlermen were going to leave the floor jubi- lant victors. But it wasn ' t in the books. To pick an out- standing Butler player would be sheer folly. February 4, 1948, was the night they ALL won the admiration of every- one who watched. I ORGANIZED TO PROMOTE FRIEND- SHIP, SCHOLARSHIP.

Its membership is steadily increasing in both the United States and Canada and has come to include 72 active chapters. An Alpha Chi chapter was installed on the Butler campus in 1925. In September at the formal Panhellenic dinner, thirty-one pledges received the green and crimson Alpha Chi ribbons. The new pledges were introduced to the campus at a formal open house late in September. Alpha Chi officially heralded the opening of its fall social season with a tea dance, held at the chapter house after the Butler-Ball State football game. After the Homecoming game alumni were honored at an open house. Home- coming was the occasion for special celebration since Alpha Chi captured the trophy for homecoming decorations for the second consecutive year. Early in November a box social was given by the pledges. The December calendar included the Christmas party, carolling, and the chap- ter ' s traditional formal Christmas dance. In the spring of 1947 the Alpha Chi ' s won the trophy for Geneva Stunts. Jeanne Minney was elected Sophomore Sweetheart by the men of the class and reigned over the Sophomore Cotillion. Alpha Chi Omega has been very active this year in clubs and honoraries. Mildred Marshall was president of Scarlet Quill, and Carmel Cecile was presi- dent of the Spanish Club. Many Alpha Chis participated and held offices in Chimes, Color Guard, Loyalty Legion, Kappa Beta, Collegian, Drift, Sigma Tau Delta, A. W. S. and M. S. S. Patricia Pointer was elected Secretary of the junior class and Delores Daugall was vice-president of the sophomore class. Mildred Marshall and Carmel Cecile were both elected to Who ' s Who. Chapter officers for the year were Dorothy Swickard, president; Jo Ann Fritz, vice-president; Mary Schreiber, secretary; Martha Lee Lancet, treasurer and Delores Daugull, rusn chairman. MRS. G. DANIELS MRS. HELEN FITZGERALD DELTA DELTA DELTA Delta Delta Delta was founded at Boston University on Thanksgiving Eve, 1888. The sorority is international and has ninety-two chapters, three of which are located in Canada. Delta Lambda chapter was founded at Butler in 1914. The Tri Delt social calendar opened this year on October 12 when the pledges were formally introduced to the campus at the annual open house. During November the National District President was entertained. Other social events for the year included Founder ' s Day, the Christmas dance — Winter Fantasy, State Day, The Dublin Fair held to raise money for the Tri Delt scholarship fund, the pledge dance, and the annual June dance. At the Freshman Mixer, pledge Jeanne Wilson was chosen Typical Freshman Girl. Jean Ann Bates was a 1948 Drift Beauty Queen. Tri Delt also won the Spring Sing of 1947. This year Tri Delt has been under the leadership of Phyllis Hollar King, president; Betty Jo Morrison, vice-president; Betty Keough, recording secretary; Barbara Lovelle, treasurer; and Barbara Myers and Eliza- beth Ott, rush chairmen. Members have been active in various activities on the campus. Betty Keough and Betty Jo Morrison were elected to Scarlet Quill, and Barbara Myers and Dorothy Newburg were claimed by Chimes.

The annual formal dinner dance was held at the Severin Hotel on December 17. Indiana Delta Gammas celebrated State Day o n March 21 at the Indianapolis Athletic Club. MRS. FRANCES BRECOUNT MRS. JULIA SWEET KAPPA ALPHA THETA In 1870, Kappa Alpha Theta was founded on DePauw University campus. Gamma Chapter was organized at Butler in 1 874, being the first sorority on this campus. The fall semester was introduced successfully when Theta pledged twenty-eight. Soon after they received guests at a formal tea and open house. The social session opened with a masked Halloween Dance at the Chapter House. The annual Christmas party was held on the seventeenth of December, which was preceded by the traditional carolling of the fraternal organizations. The following Friday the house was the scene of the chapter dance. Our fathers were honored at the annual Dad ' s Day Dinner at the house in December.

PEARSON TURPIN KAPPA KAPPA GAMMA Mu chapter of Kappa Kappa Gamma was established on the old Irving- ton campus of Butler, eight years after the founding of the national organization at Monmouth College, Monmouth, Illinois, on October 13, 1870. The outstanding event of the Kappa year occurred at the Indianapolis Athletic Club, when the chapter was presented with the Indianapolis Panhellenic trophy for the third consecutive year in honor of maintaining the highest grade average on campus for that period of time. This made them the final possessors of the trophy. The year ' s activities began with the Panhellenic Pledge dinner at the Murat Temple, at which time seventeen new pledges were honored. Social events included open house, after-game coffee after the Home- coming game, the annual chapter Christmas party, the Christmas dance, and the pledge dance. Kappas honored in campus activities were numerous: Rebecca Taggert and Mary Fritsche were elected to Phi Kappa Phi; Jean Redwine Rey- nolds, Mary Fritsche, and Rebecca Taggert were members of Scarlet Quill, Joanne Jennings was president of Chimes the first semester, and Joan Yarian was secretary. Alice Anderson, Joan Freyn, and Patricia Pearson were elected to Spurs, Nancy Claar was vice-president of the freshman class, and Carolyn G. Smaltz was elected one of the five Drift beauty queens. Many other Kappas held offices in departmental clubs and honoraries.

Pi Beta Phi has grown to more than 90 active chapters and 42,000 members. This year Indiana Gamma commemorated its fiftieth year on the Butler University campus. Amu Bunham Onken, National Grand President, was guest of honor for the week-end celebration. Pi Beta Phi is proud to have been representative on the Butler campus for over half a century. PI Beta Phi has been prominent in social and campus activities throughout the year. Thirty-two girls were introduced to the campus at an open house in October. Early in the fall the annual barn dance was held, which was followed by the Christmas dance held at Hillcrest Country Club. Indiana Gamma played host for the yearly State Day in April at the Indianapolis Athletic Club. Exchange dinners were held with the fra- ternities and the year ' s activities came to a close with the traditional pledge dance. Pi Phis received many honors in 1947 and 1948 and were active in campus organizations. Nanette Newlin was chosen as a Drift beauty finalist. Phi Chi Nu claimed Alice Robertson and Bowman. Spurs, in ad- dition to these two girls, tapped Barbara Shellhouse, Beverly Mussowis, and Joan Sheppard. Betty Beck was elected secretary of the senior class.

The Rainbow or W. W. W. Society, founded at the University of Mississippi in 1848, merged with Delta Tau Delta in 1886. Beta Zeta Chapter was chartered the following year, and the Deltas acquired the first fraternity house on the Butler campus. Beta Zeta began the year with a careful rushing program designed to keep the chapter strong in future years. As a result an outstanding pledge class was obtained. The first funct ion of the year was the annual fall pledge dance. The theme this year was Come as you are. Following this was the annual trek to Spring Mill State Park the week-end of Thanksgiving. The thirty couples attending had a wonderful vacation. A treasure hunt, hayride, picnic, and dance kept the party moving. Campus affairs found Jim Cline elected to the presidency of Blue Key, Paul Bevelhimer, president of the freshman class. Art Src:iham, secretary of Sphinx, and Dean Finley, vice-president of Utes. Robert Watkins served as president of Alpha Delta Sigma.

It may be traced as far back as 1905 when the Cosmopolitan Club, which later became the parent of Alpha Zeta, the first unit of the fraternity, was established at Boston University. It has established its organization in 120 leading universities and colleges in United States and Canada. The Chapter was founded at Butler in 1915. Lambda Chi Alpha has been guided through a most successful year by brother Nahrwold. Ever striving for high scholastic attainment, the fraternity is represented in the honoraries by brother Richard Agnew in Sigma Delta Chi, two brothers in Blue Key, three brothers in Sphinx and eight brothers in Utes. Many other members of the fraternity hold prominent positions in the Student Council, the But ler Collegian, Loyalty Legion, Philosophy Club, Flying Club, and the Republican Club. The fraternity has been well represented in varsity football by Murphy, Fike, Bennett, Jones, Mcsemek, Fulk, Peterson, Warner, and Wright. The chapter wishes to express its sincere thanks to the housemother, Mrs. Mary Butler, for her help to the fraternity. MRS.

VANDIVIER PHI DELTA THETA Phi Delta Theta fraternity is preparing to bring to a close one hundred years of collegiate fellowship in the United States and Canada. We, who have found the pleasure of brotherhood, feel justifiably proud in the accomplishments of the past. We face an uncertain future with the knowledge that what little good we may do during our brief rest here looms large against a background of mutual dislike of people by people. Consider these men: our own Hilton U. Brown, President Benjamin Har- rison, Vice-President Adiai E. Stevenson, Eugene Field, Lou Gehrig, Tom Harmon, Muddy Ruel, Claude Vinson, Secretary Tom Connally, William Allen White, Louis Bromfield, Ken Niles, Admiral John C. McCain. These men, of different ideals and beliefs, found a common bond of friendship in this fraternity which has served them as they served it . faithfully and well. This most basic of emotions, and yet the most difficult, was easily brought to the surface by these men, united in purpose. Phi Delta Theta has grown with Butler University since 1859 when it became the first fraternity on the fairview campus. Phis have partici- pated actively in both athletic and academic enterprises. This year. Brothers Bill Tobin and Brooks Walters edited the Collegian, Farroll Speake and Jack Fultz were associate editor and publicity director for the Drift, and an all-Phi team overrun the fall tennis tournament. Brothers Walker Kemper and Grant Appel were Indiana Gamma presi- dents for this year, and Brother Leroy Compton presided for a short while before accepting a position in the teaching profession. Mom Shaffer put in her eleventh year as housemother and Dutch Uncle to her boys in the stone castle. MRS. BESSIE SHAFFER SIGMA CHI The Sigma Chi Fraternity was founded at Miami University, Oxtord, Ohio, in 1855, on the principals of honor, integrity, scholarship and brotherhood. Rho chapter was installed at Butler University on April 16, 1865, the sixteenth of 109 chapters of Sigma Chi. Sigma Chi opened the social season with an open house presentation of its new housemother, Mrs. Ruby E. Hoffman, Pi Phi, of Red Oaks, Iowa. Miss Dorothy Gard, Kappa Alpha Theta, was chosen Sweetheart of Sigma Chi at the annual sweetheart Dance. Scholastically Rho Chapter tied for first honors within the national fraternity. Rho Chapter was awarded the first Maxwell E. Hosea trophy to be presented to a fraternity. Jim Harrap coached a victorious team to the undisputed possession of the intramural football trophy. Sigma Chi had the winning float in the Homecoming Parade. Rho Chapter has the honor of being represented in Who ' s Who Among Students in American Universities and Colleges by Robert Coyner and Robert Jerrican. Officers of Rho Chapter are Bill Roberts, Counsul; Orin Bartle, Pro- Counsul; Jimmy Vaughn, Annotator; Robert Jerrican, Quaestor. MRS. HOFFMAN COYNER ROBERTS, W.

Founded May 7, 1926, the chapter has owned its house since 1941 and is pronninently represented by over 100 members from five states and Mexico. Commander James A. Beeler, president of the Interfraternity Council, succeeded past commander Nick S. Smyrnis. Assisting him v ere Lieutenant Commander Max E. Winteregg, Recorder William M. Os- born, Marshall Richard Geib, Sentinel John Martin, and Chaplain Kenneth Bayless. Housemother Elsie Kierst has worn the White Star for two years. 1947 saw the greatest turnout of Sigma Alumni in the history of the chapters to witness the annual homecoming activities. Brothers from the DePauw chapter and other dates were entertained at an informal house party the night of the Butler-DePauw football game. Individual members distinguishing themselves were Walter F. Dodd, senior president of the Loyalty Legion; William Osborn, senior president of Phi Eta Sigma; Student Manager Lloyd W. Olcott, treasurer of the junior class; and Marshall Williams, freshman fight captain in the annual freshman-sophomore battle of the beanies. Trophies coming to rest on the Epsilon Mu mantel were the 1946-47 all sports trophy and the annual Y. M. C. A. membership drive trophy. The annual Sigma Nu White Rose dance was held at the Hillcrest Country Club in November, and the pledge dance was presented in March. Participating in the field of athletics were Bob Hamilton, Bob Runyan, and Don Roberts on the football varsity, and Bill Larsen on the basketball squad. A MRS. ELSIE KIERST ALPHA EPSILON Alpha Epsilon, better known as the Stray Greek Chapter on Butler Campus, was officially recognized in the Spring of ' 47. It was formed to foster and perpetuate good feelings among all off- campus Greek lettered fraternity men and now boasts members from nine fraternities not represented on Butler Campus. They have had a very successful year as they started off by placing third in the Homecoming Float Contest with only a small group of hard- working men. Next jump was to be given an official seat on the Inter- Fraternity Council. The sponsor of the Strays is Dr. C. E. Aldrich, Director of the Division of Graduate Instruction. Officers of this organization are: President, Bill Thompson, Phi Gamma Delta; Vice-President, Larry Finley, Theta Chi; Secretary, Bob Bogan, Alpha Tau Omega; Treasurer, Ed Kennedy, Phi Gamma Delta; Political Chairman, Jim Kennedy, Phi Gamma Delta; Social Chairman, Jim Grimes, Phi Gamma Delta.

B. I. A. members have endeavored to fulfill the association ' s purposes of perpetrating and promoting social, political, and cultural interests. The B. I. A. pin is a blue shield with gold letters. Meetings are held every Wednesday in the social room which is located in the northeast corner of the basement. Highlights of the yearly activities were the annual welner roast, Christma s party and carolling, initiation banquet, and the traditional spring outing. B. I. A. members participated in all campus activities: intramural sports, beauty contests, class elections, cheer drive, and Geneva stunts. The following members were elected to office for the 1947-48 school year: Joseph O ' Nan, president; Virginia C. Rodman, vice-president; Anne Malott, secretary; Kenneth Ordel, treasurer. Co-pledge chairmen were Lewis Miller and Wilma Smith. Dr. and Mrs. Means, Dr. and Mrs. Elliott, and Mr. and Mrs. Henzie were sponsors of the organization.

The care- less, care-free, uninhibited extra-curricular activties. The nights at Oaklandon, eating hot dogs at the ball games, hailing King Caucus, that cup of coffee in the cafe- teria, and remember homecoming, the bon- fire, working all night on your decorations, the big parade, a thrilling victory over Western Michigan, and the dance that night. Queen lovlne reigned, but the real queen was in your arms. Remember when the Campus Club burned? You were com- ing home after church. You couldn ' t be- lieve your eyes, but you weren ' t sorry. Al- ready you had visions of a much-needed Union Building. . . . and the night you stood and looked over the campus, the lights were twinkling along sorority row, Arthur Jordan Hall was sharply etched against a full Indiana moon. As you stood there you knev that you could have done better if you had tried. Your re- flections were tinged with bitterness as you thought of your buddies who would never be In college — they were sleeping In foreign soil. Remember . . . jbn t lieoAdiif, Qcmte i p. On December 9+h the Bu+leri+es crowded into the audHorium of L. S. Ayres and Company for the selection of the five Drift Beauty Queens at the traditionary contest sponsored by the publication. The judges were really put on a spot when they had to select five beauties from a field of forty-six entrants. Their decisions are illu- strated on the following pages. Noble Bretzman, photographer; Corbin Patrick, dramatic critic of the Indianapolis Star; Mayor Al Feeney, Johnny Long, famed band leader, and Professor Robert New- ton, of the Butler University De- partment of Economics, made the final selection.

Elizabeth lovine was crowned Queen and the Independents went wild. So did the Bulldogs as they won your Homecoming game against Western Michigan. And so did you when Michigan ' s ace kicker blew that last minute field-goal attempt. It looked close there, vor a while, but you remembered last year ' s game against Wabash, and you knew the Blue would come through. Just a bit crowded in the small gym, wasn ' t it? If you remember correctly, you probably stood the entire evening. But that was al- right, because at least there was a dance this year. HOMECOMING Noon Friday. Remember? Classes were shortened and everyone made for the choice seats on the Phi Delt roof and the Sigma Nu porch while the Frosh battled un- successfully to swipe the Sopho- more flag from the top of that greased pole. Below, Charlie Kem- per gets about as high as anyone. Then the parade down town and the girls smiled becomingly at the sidewalk lotharios, while the men craned their necks as the office windows bulged with stenographers. Something seemed to be missing from the bonfire that night. The old grads knew too well what it was. Understand competition and you understand America, they say. Far into the damp Indiana night, emergency crews sweated and, contrary to faculty wishes, swore, as last minute touches were dealt the house decorations. Four o ' clock in the morning you took a quick turn around the campus, checked the other houses, decided yours was The best, and hit the sack. Mr. and Mrs. Bill Batten prove that they are a perfect combo as they exchange radiant looks of ap- proval. The Mrs. has just won a ticket to the Blanket Hop for hav- ing construed the corsage of cor- sages. Buddy seems to be having a great time as the Theta house president foots the bill. Smile Jody 1948 is Leap Year and you can do it for a whole year if you like. Glo puts up a good front for the boy friend as Rea, Peggy, and Phyl show exactly how they feel about the whole darned affair. Honestly, now gals, it wasn ' t so bad — or was it? PANHELLANIC DANCE THE WOMEN PAY . . . The annual turn-about dance. You picked your man and you paid his way, and you winced every time he glanced at his empty coke bottle. It shot two weeks allow- ance by the time it was over, and you were glad it happened only once in a while. THE WOMEN ALSO WORK . All night you spent on that corsage. All night and cut yourself six times, and either he thought it was silly, or couldn ' t figure it out. Worse yet, the judges overlooked it completely. The radishes wilted and hot water bottle leaked all over his suit. But, he laughed and told you he really thought it was the most original of them all. AND THE MEN LOVED IT . . It ' s all on the house. No gas to buy, no corsages to buy, no tickets to buy, no nothing to buy. Pardon the English. She opened the door, helped you on with your coat and even bought the smokes. You knew you were a dog, but you reveled in every minute of it. SIGMA DELTA CHI BLANKET HOP The Sigma Delta Chi, sponsor of the traditional Blanket Hop, acclainaed one of the most successful dances of the year at the Murat Temple on December the ninth. Not only was the P. M. highlighted by the noted band of Johnny Long, but the publication of the Bullegian, edited by the honorary, added sparks to the occasion. Massarui, Dobklns, Guyer, Fulk, and Hurley eye the blanket speculatively, as Chairman Bucky Walters gives the announcer the word.

INDIANAPOLIS WATER COMPANY Keys to Achievement Keys not carried in the pocket or the purse. But in the mind. Keys that open not just ordinary [I J] doors . . . but vast areas of achievement in the sciences, ' thc arts, the humanities. It is one of the purposes of education not only to fit the student with a basic ring of keys to kno vledge . . . but also to teach him how to make his own keys for all the doors to achievement he will want to open throughout his life. How many keys to achieve- ment are needed? Enough to keep one busy for a lifetime, fashioning them out of knowledge, reason and experience. For no matter how many doors you unlock, there is always another door to even grea ter achievement still to be opened.
