R 0 W PRESIDENT Got'm 'Wletim' Writing for the first time in The Rambler and us the new president, it would well become us to record a Retrospect of Yesterday setting forth the achievements of the past. They have been many. They have involved and required the gran- est sacrifices and most consecrated service. If it were not tlloughtAto be egotistic. we should delight to present a Review of Todav. This academic year which this book endeavors to depict and to commit to history may be characterized as a year of transition. Some old things are passing away. and some new things are appearing. Some changes have been planned and put into execution; but a larger number will not go into elleet until the next academic year. Of these innovations. let others speak it they be so minded. One aspect of the program of the future is the strongest possible faculty. No school is any stronger than its: faculty. Great steps can be taken only by great men. Our ad 'zmeement is dependent wholly upon Our man power. In this regard, the standards of the past will not be lowered: they will be raised. With the se- curing of an increased endowment we shall be in a position to secure teachers who are well trained by advanced graduate study. who have the seltolzlrlf attitude, and who have ability as successful teacherst Coupled with scholarship must be spirituality. Hverr teacher in a college. such as Carthage, must be a pattern which the students may copy. Another phase of the development of the future will be an enriched currieulum. The college of tomorrow dare not have a curriculum of yesterday. A question which every college must answer is: ttShall we offer to all studentst whatever the field in which they wish eventually to specialize, work covering at least the Erst two college years? A college which wishes to remain of the cultural type has the burden of proof to show that courses in agriculture, business administration, engineering. journalism, etc, are less cultural than many of those at present listed in its curriculum. Again. ought a college cater to a selected few in a given community or territory? Is the college merely a preparatory school for the prod fessional school and university? Must not the college, thru its curriculum. show that it is in vital touch with the problems of life? The demand of the times is for an enriched curriculum. Carthage will strive to meet this demand. Our present building conditions and the program as sketched, naturally, require a dehnite building program. All efforts are being concentrated upon meeting the conditions of the Rockefeller Offer This is the supreme need of the hour at Carthage. Then the building program must follow. In carrying out this program two principles will guide us: economy and elhw cieney in service. No institution or organization which secures money from a constitutiency ought be careless in the expenditure of its funds. Most of such funds are theresult of the strictest sacrifice. A college must be willing to economize likewise. But economy must be accompanied by el'heiency. Every employe of the college must render the best possible service, not only to the college in its administration but also to the student in the elass-room. We believe few college faculties can equal our faculty in its earnestness and spirit of service. Comments on the part of students who have spent some time at Carthage and then have gone to other institutions abundantly support this conviction. This program with its underlying principles calls for the heartiest cooperation of both student body and alumni; Noemllege administration can succeed in any program, however grand and great. without such cooperation. Dr. Hoover. in his last Travelogue printed in the Alumnust dropped a thought which has been preeminent in my mind. HOur particular idea is that Carthage shall get there fin: and keep just one step ahead and so not only fulfil her functions as a college for the studentst but become and maintain a position of leadership in the educa- tional worlc. The above program plus the cooperation of all concerned will enable this idea to become actual in the realm of visual reality. m II'HIIIHIMMHQ- WHL; 1m memoriam QEarI Elihu $01321: 30111 map 10. 1908 EM!

Secretary One 01' the greatest events in the history of Carthage College was brought about on the eighteenth den of September, nineteen twenty-three, for it was on that memorial day that we. as individual members of this distinguished class of nineteen twentywseven entered our cognomens upon the snowy white ledgers of Carthage College. Yes. this date. for the past three years, has been a red letter day for the college. We have distinguished ourSeives by participation in all extra-curricular actii vities: football, basketball, track, debate1 dramatics, and music. We have made a name for ourselves in practically every freld of collegiate endeavor, and point with pride to our record even as verdant Freshmen. Some of us declared up and down after the class Scrap that our backs were broken, but we had the best time ever at our picnic. Our Sophomore year was devoted to the proper humiliation of the current Freshman Class, through judicious use of the pipe-rush and G, A. P. We also found time to maintain the high standard we had set, and did our part in promot- ing college spirit and pep. Again, during our Junior year. with the quiet dignity of upper-classmen, we strove consistently toward the ideals which make for nobler manhood and woman- hand. This year, with our hfty-seven members as famous as Mr. Hcinzts famous hFifty-SeveIWg we have worked even harder for the honor of good old u I'wenty- seven? At the close of four years of bustling enjoyable college life. we feel that we have accomplished much that is worth while. About to graduate, and to become Alumni, we have reached one of our Ideals, but we must not stop for there is much to do. E. Eu L7 SL'SAX VI ACKI-z R .

Secretary We fully realize that the 1928 Crimson Rambler is peculiarly our book. and that in its pages we have a rare opportunity to boast of our virtues and aecornplishments to our hearts, content. However, we have decided that modesty must always follow in the train of true worth, and so have determined upon a policy of the deepest humility, lest some waggish type-settcr feel the urge to write uFinis to our book in the words of that Fine old quotation: Dogs! Ye have had your day! We are certain, of course, that some of the finest roses in the garden of girls are to be found among use but we admit that otherst almost as fine. may be found elsewhere. We are extremely proud of the men we have contributed to C C'st foot- ball team, but we do not claim that these men would have. if they had attended Harvard, been certain of positions on the ilAll-Ameriean . W'e know that our Oliver is a real track athlete. but we dorft expect him to break any worldls records for another year at least theis usually pretty busy in the spring of the yearl. We have in our midst an actor of note. who is in a class by himself as an apostle of pep, and an evecutioner hint that he murders theml 0f extemporaneous bits of eloquence. Still. although we trace in his classic features a slight resemblance to those of Jnhn Barrymore, we donlt think that he looks the least bit like the late l-Villiam Jennings Bryan. In other words. we know that we are a Fine class, and that Carthage College has, and always will have, reason to be proud of us; but we feel that Our deeds will speak for themselves, and that it is therefore entirelyr unnecessary for us to enumerate and gloat over our accomplishments and achievements. Let us rather, them turn your attention to the following few pages. adorned with excellent likenesses 0f the various members of the good old Class Of l281 1! LYLE ATKINS Lyle's picture occupies this prominent position, not because he hails from the city of Ferris, but because his name happens to be Atkins. He is one of the musical prodigies of the class, and can do wonderful things to a handful of violin strings. He is also a fine exponent of the art of tromboningt and a fluent comrersationalist. Otherwise. we cant find a thing wrong about him. HELEN AYERS Hail to the new House President! Helen is one of those fortunate mortals blessed with a charming, sunny disposition, and the ability to do a number of things well. We have been told that these traits are the qualifications of an ideal ministerls wife. Be that as it may, we are sure that they are the qualifications of an ideal classmate. LYNN CRUM Whenever Coach Omer has an especially weighty problem to solve he sends in Crum. Lynn usually dissolves it. He is also our representative from Mt. Carmel. A member of the faculty once said that Crum would make an excellent judge. We believe, however, that he would make an even better campaign manager. Certainly, he smokes a ten-Cent cigar with more grace and dignity than any other man on the campus. FAYE DUNKLEBERGER Faye is sweet, and pretty. and cheerful, and every- thing else a girl should be. They say that McGill joined the Male Glee club merely to give him something to do while she is on tour with the Melody Girls. Vet LBUR FERRIS 1Wilbur has grown to manhood the past year, has put away all youthful follies, and haunts the chemistry lab. from dawn till dark. We always knew that llBill would amount to something some day, but if it werenlt for his hearty laugh, we should suspect him of a secret sorrow. doesn,t it? 'round. GRACE DUNKLEBERG Demure is the word that best describes this member of the Junior class. student, and as a good, law-abiding citizen of Denhart. Mnrcovcr, she has a nice. friendly smile.

MIRIAM FLEMING Quiet, industrialist 21nd echientt Miriam is a source She is one of the best students m the Junior class. Miriam lives in Carthage the year of joy to the faculty. IIAROID FOULDS Our Class Cut-upli, We mean that Harold is our foremost Biologist. He knows every bush and bug between Cartilage and the river by its middle name. If the world ever decides that Natural Science is out- of-datc- Harold will go into Chautauqua work. Etc always thought that Harold was simt'm-purc Yankee, but during the past year we have come to believe that there must be a little Swiss in him somewhere DOROTHY Faimzlz Miss Frame is one of our music students. and her pleasing voice has delighted many Carthage audiences. ,-. '. -. She is quiet, unassuming, and always ready to do her 17 ' 57 bit. Dorothy also is a resident of Carthage. ' E' MAX GEISSLER Max has a purpose in life, and bends every bit of his energy to the task of accomplishing that purpose. There was a day when feminine charms could envcigle this young man's heart. but all that is over now. To prove it. he carries a brief-casc. MARGUERITF. GIFFORD Although Miss Gifford is not as well-known as our other Elginite, all those who do know her weli, have found her a very pleasant companion, and a true friend. er think that the class owes the City of Elgin a vote of thanks. MAX GOEBEL HI: hails from Mendota, om: of those towns used as a boundary line between two corn-Iiclds. Max is a serious, hard-working lad, a charter member of the iiSct:iet.v of C. N37,1 and wears his hair cut short. 36 HELEN GRISWOLD We all like and admire Helen, because shc,s aiways right in there with 21 cheery line of chatter, and a real, hrmcst-to-gocdness smile. She is a mighty busy girlt and an excellent pianist, but occasionally she finds time It: drive that high-powered Buick, and has even been known to blow out one of those high-priced tirese Alas, another hbill for Bill. WI LLA RD GROVES Groves is interested in the gentle art of basketball, and, during the winter months, is seen out on the Poor almost every night, doing his bit. It has been reported that he likes Maeomb but his hinspiration comes from Carthage where Denhart Hall rules do not pre- vail. Perhaps that is one of the reasons for his drow- siness during eight otclnck Classes. ZEIDA HARRISON Miss Harrison comes from Keokuk; consequently We donht see as much of her as We do of other members of our class. She is quiet, independent, and one of our best students. Need more recommendation be given her? Ross Jon NSON Ross is the dictator 0f the campus v. hen it comes to fashions. All other ster-setters how law before him ever since the day he started the two-toneq craze on our campus. We have heard rumors to the effect. aiso, that he is a general favorite with the fair sex. and that he is right there on ttappeal . MI RIAM HAUSKNECHT Mim knows everyone. and everyone knows Mim. She is one of the leading spirits at Dcnhart Hall. where only the fittest survive. Our uRose-Bud is conscientious in the classroom and does more than her share of work outside, as is shown by her splendid work on the Rambler Board. We are mighty strong for Mim. GRACE JOHNSON Grace came from Dixon tn Carthage, where read musical ability is appreciated. We have learned also to appreciate the sterling worth of her charactere and the sweetness of her disposition. This year she has grown even more quiet and industrious. No doubt she is looking into the future-not we don't mean at all that she is the day-dreaming typef We simply mean- 011 well. shucksl Wed better cease before Grace gets angry. WMLTER KAITSCHUK VCCII. here's haw! 'sVaily is our man about town, politiciant and candy merchant. Ile managed to create quite a sensation on the campus one day during the early spring. If youive forgotten, look up your old Collegians. Now, when he throws out his manly chest in a burst of oratory from the south porch. the girls beam upon him in awe and admiration. We hear the tobacco growers of the South tendered him a rising vote of thanks at their eom'entitm this spring. ALIDA KAISER Lida hates to rise early in the morning, so she moved out in town. She is often seen in that neigh- borhood after ten oiclock at night and manages to work in a date or so during the week Wiho wouldnk when Young Lochinvar drives a Buick? She is happy ' and friendly, and enjoys a good laugh. ALLEN METTERNICH ii Al v has a hard time keeping his letters from getting mixed, but we are glad to see that he is a itsticker'i Between classes, work and frequent visits to Deuhart, he manages to find time to loaf in certain rooms in North Hall, whence, we have heard1 his exit is procured only by means of the cleft application of a few boots. HAZEL Kux'rz Hazel is our class artist. Her work as Art Editor this year has been done faithfully and well. Hazel also hnds time for a rousing game of tennis or basket- ilalellil nlow and then. She came to Carthage from Payson. muss. CLARA MEXDENIIALI. Clara has the checriest smile ml the campus. She seems quiet and reserved, but we do not trust that smile. If all of us followed her example this world would be a much better place in which to live. FRED MUELLER Fred is a hard working chap who never slights any- thing. He is always in a hurry. If he does as much in DeSoto as he does in Carthage, the rest of the in- habitants must have an easy time of it. He works in the college offce every day, and also is handling the Enances 0f the 1928 Crimson Rambler. ALMA ORWIG Alma is another musician and an all-arcund studenti We feel that we are the most musical class in the school, even if we are the smallest in numbers. Alma has done a great deal to bolster up this belief in our- selves. KENNETH B. NEL'MANN Bruno is our typical college youth. He never lets his troubles worry himi At leastt if he does, no one knows about it. He has the priceless gift of eloquence, and has demonstrated the fact time and again in Con- vocation. There is a rumor about to the effect that he has stolen a uJewel . HELEN OTTMAX Helen has nit . Just what it is. we do not know, but it makes her one of the most charming girls in our class. It is reported that before Helen came to us from Oak Park she had never seen a cow. Just what this has to do with the matter we do not know; we simply record it here as an interesting bit of gossip. Helen is friendly, a willing helper. and proved to be the u9nd of the year as El Dramatic Club member. She is indeed a welcome addition to our class. V1140 NIKANDER Nick is a steady. quiete unassuming Fellow whose purpose in life it is to serve his fellow men. He is a very fine student. and one of the leading warblers in the Glee Club. He spends his spare time gadding about to various Y. Mt CA. conventions, and manages to pretend that he enjoys it. Nick is a Michigander and a countryman 0f Paaro Nurmi. ROSALIND Rem; Rosalind was unfortunate in her choice of a last name. but as this defect will probably be corrected in time. we consider it of no serious conset'uenee Rosalind is one of the hnest blooms in our uGarden 0f Charmfi WALTER PETERSON Our Swedish Nightingale: His deep, sonorous, bass voice has sent many a little shiver up and down many a spine. For the rest, he is a carefree soul, who manages to procure a little pleasure for himself now and then. In Kansas he is known as hiPete . Some of the students believe that he should be nicknamed the uKing ; but to most of us he is known merely as a Prince of good fellows. EVA SCHAEFER Eva came to us all the way from Chicago just to do Dr. HeHelbowersi typing. She is the very soul of efficiency, an nA'1 student, and an enthusiastic booster of all class activities. IRVING PUNTENNEY Puntenney is an assistant in the Chemistry Lab, and a good one. The Freshmen include him in their prayers ,most every night, it is said. Daily, however, he trusts his precious being to a battered 01d Ford. which rambles up the drive early in the morning, and doesrft ramble back down until late at night. Women are the least of his troubles! CHARLES RICE Mr Rice has come back to C. C. after an absence of three treataand has done us the honor of selecting us as his class. We all like Rice, and admire him be- cause of the game tht against odds he is putting up tr: complete his college course. PALlL Remus No matter where pep is needed, llDirty is always there to supply it. He is an all-around good fellow and a gocd student. In his spare hours he reads grocery tradeejournals fprcsumablyl, and keeps the three lesser lights of the Idle Hour Clubll in their proper places. We might also add that he has been elected to lead the Crimson Horde again next fall. Hereis to you. boy! BYRON SCHERER livery class has its 'ljack-of-all-trades . Meet Scherer, orator, carpenter, and. business man. North Hall last a good citizen and the Rambler Board a hm: candy manager when Scherer decided to move out into town. Scherer has real ability. and sincerity.- of purpose. M.-n'N.-1RD H'EBB Maynard is a legacy from the Class of 1927. He is an earnest worker and has the will and courage to stick to a task against odds. Furthermore, he has the kindest heart and the blackest hair on the campus. Everybody likes Maynard. LELAND KVESTOX Here is another of our Lab. assistants, who helps the poor Freshmen get their difficulties straightened out. That's not all. lmwever,-he assists a certain young lady exrery day. and about three nights a week. It surely must be a tough life! Why canlt all of us be assistants? STANLEY SESTUN l'Petc is a line chemist. but I'C- fuses to broaden his scientific uduca- tion. He will not takc Biology bc- causc he will not believe that the dado i5 extinct. lle is in training now to become a Forest Ranger.

STAXLEY WHITMAN Stanley does all his walking sitting; dOn'n. Yes, we will admit that it is a trusty old bicycle. Of which the Junior class is duly proud. ANNA BENXER Anna has the ability to study. to temcmbcr what she studies. and to recite on what she remembers. She is also an enthusiastic member til the 1'1 .31., and an all-aruund good sport. LEONA Tlmsnsx Leona is another Quincy girl. and maintains the high standard set by our other Carthaginians who hall from that city. MARY Arum CHAPIN W's think we have the hnest mascot in tlm world.

After struggling through the intricacies of registra- tion we sought relief in a picnic at the river, where, thanks to the warning of friendk 13' seniors We were able to protect our cats. We were hardly acquainted with our fellow students before the Sophomores rudeiy challenged us to meet them on the green . When the smoke of battle cleared away the ofhcial t3 score book declared the Sophomores victorious. Thesc same Sophs were so afflicted with enlargement of the cranial cavity over their superiority in physical prowess that they boldly challenged us to a battle of brains which was to take the form of the regular FreshmanvSophomore debate. A short search revealed three of our number who completely swamped the hhSoph team by a 3-0 decision. We: also achieved some athletic fame. We have four letter men in football, one in basketball, and some good prospects for track and tennis. The boy's won third place in the class tournament, but the girls won all their games by a high scoreJ and got a majority.r 0f the team on the thallustar teams. Already we have the 01d C.

Officers were elected to serve as an executive committee. The following stu- dents were selected; RUDOLPH SCHULTZ . . . . . t Pretiden: PAUL ROM EIS . . . . . , Vt'cz-Prwidmt EDWARD GOETZ . . . . . . . Sacrzzary CARL TAMBERT . , . . t fvfember at large WILLIAM JOHNSON . . t . . Member at large A constitution was drawn up by this committee and was submitted to the student body for approval and adoption It was accepted by the student body to serve as a temporary constitution, until the further course of events should determine just what additional articles should be included in a permanent con- sututlon. The executive committee this year dealt with various campus activities. The Inter-Class Basketball Tournament this year was under the supervision of this bodv. It is to be hoped that this new body will dcvelope into a real hcip t0 the school. There is great need for an organization of this type at Carthage. and the new system has proven very satisfactory, having given striking evidences of ability to handle problems which may arise.

Its members are elected annually by the student body. During the past year the Council has been most eHeetive in its rulings concerning the prompt payment of library tines. Altho warnings have often been given to noisy individuals. the usual quota of offenders of this type has diminished, so that there has not been a single case of this nature brought before the council.

However. since athletics have come to occupy a prominent position in the life of the school, many.r 0f the former duties and responsibilities of the Council have been assumed by the college. The Athletic Council awards letters, audits the accounts of the treasuren and votes on matters of athletic policy. 1115b: Qtnnslzrhatnr? ELMER T. R. HANKE, B.Mus.

CA RTHA GE C O L LEGE COKE E R VA T 0 R Y Carthage College Conservatory in its many years of service Finds many of its former students holding important positions in the musical world. It is natural for them to hark hack to their student dayst recalling the splendid associations and the hours of fruitful labor. Although the faculty has changed, these former' students are invited to make their acquaintance 0n the campus, on the held. by correspondence. The faculty of Carthage College Conservatory wishes always to be the representative of those who have gone before and wieh'eS thereby to aid in strengthening the bonds of love for Alma Mater. Three years have passed since a new era was inaugurated for the Music De- partment. The Senate of Carthage College, progressive in its realization of the cultural worth of Musiei in the spring of 1924. created the new Department of Music. thereby adding it to the number of Major Departments in our Liberal Arts Course. The Bachelor of Arts Degree with 4.0 credits in Music places the Carthage music student in an advantageous position in relation to his possibilities for service after graduation. As in colleges. so in high schools and grade schools Music is gaining recognition with incredible rapidity; in almost every city and in many smaiier communities a fair proportion of the regular curricular time is devoted to its study, in addition to glee club, orchestra, and band activity, and in some places it has taken its place beside the three 'tRis . There must be teachers to carry aloft the banner of Musie-leaders adequately trained. The call is a challenge, not to the indolent pleasure-seeker. but to men and women firmly grounded in fundamentais. and possessing the subjective ability to project them into young minds, Firing them with the enthusiasm for the hard work necessary to the mastery of musical instruments. The Carthage College course prepares teachers and performers for full time service in the musical heid; the added advantage of the course, however1 is in the possible preparation for combinations of subjects. such as: Music and. English, Music and History, etc. College graduates without experience are usually placed in such positions. As the Music Department is an integral part of the Liberal Arts College and not, properly speaking, a Conservatory as that term is usually interpreted, music students are not Classihed as ti special . As a result, they have the same privileges academically. in extra-eurrieular and social activities; the broader general educa- tion and these privileges fit them peculiarly to teach in secondary schoolst which are essentially the same in organization. This sympathy is not easily acquired in Music Schools . All music students have opportunities for experience in public performance; this is dihieult in a large school where such experience cannot be provided for any students other than the most gifted. The Male Glee Club and Quartet, the Melody Girls3 Glee Club, the Orchestra, the Band, the Coliege Church Choir, and the many smaller ensemble groups of temporary character for isspecial occasions , to say nothing of Monthly Student Recitals and College programs of various types, keep music students in touch with the public, an experience so necessary to the musician. A high standard of instruction is assured. As Carthage College is an uA college and the Music Department is one department that must help maintain this standard. prospective music students need fear n0 sudden disastrous Fluctu- ation from year to year in standard. The Department will continue to grow and to serve always striving toward the attainment of that larger vision which has always been the goal of Carthage College. ELMER T. R.

It was the Erst national fraternity to be recognized by the col- lege and since 1920 has grown until at present Pi Kappa Delta has forty-five graduate members and fourteen active members. The aim and purpose of thc organization is to foster forensics at Carthage College. This year the chapter took complete charge of the Frosh-Soph debate. Furthermore, during the past year it has spam sored one of the largest and most successful debate programs that Carthage College has ever enjoyed. Not only is the chapter active in a local way. but also from a national standpoint. Although no national convention was held this year Carthage was represented at the province convention by a strong debate team and coach. W'c are proud of the standing of our .. local chapter and the work it is doing. Pi Kappa Delta is working and growing for Carthage. B. A. R KLTNKEI. CALI FF .X-lvuLLER PROF.

I believe that all those interested in debating will agree that Bacon was right. This year Carthage drafted four new men into service on the Varsity Debate squad. Nielsont Naniga. Weihe. and Riennw made their initial appearance. Roeth, SiHerd. and Condron were veterans from last yearhs squad. we did not meet with quite the success hoped for, but managed to make a fair showing against strong teams. On Feb. 4th. the Negative team, composed of Namigal1 Rienow, and Condron journeyed to Mt. Pleasant to go down to a 1-0 defeat at the hands of Iowa W'es- leyant The APE rmative team,e0mposed of Roeth. Weihe, and SiHerd won from the W'esleyans here. The Negative defeated Culver-Stockton 0n the Missouri fiber, but on the following Week-end they lost to ShurtleH at Alton. A day later they took the MeKendry Affirmative into camp at Lebanon by a score of 3-0. During this time the AH: rmative won from ShurtleH and East to MeKendry at home. Our ancient rivals, Augustana, were able to win both at Rock Island and at Carthage. The decision stood 3-0 at Rock Island and 2-1 here. Roeth and Condron went to Mt. Pleasant to attend province convention of Pi Kappa Delta. They lost t0 Simpsen in a lively debate. Roeth is the only man who will be lost to the debate squad next year. While he is a man whose place it will be hard to FJII, it is to be hoped that with the other seven members of this; yeafs team as a nucleus, we may look forward to a very successful season next yeart D.

Cicero, and Tressler, were abolished a few years ago, it was felt that an organization was needed to take their piace in the life of the students. A number of students interested in this line of work formed V055 Literary Society. It was named Voss in honor and commemoration of a former Carthage professor. In its fourth year of activity the society has shown a marked growth, both in interest and membership. Although the roll is limited. those who do belong feel that they are receiving something that can be gotten in no other organization on the campus. The inspirations they are receiving willI be carried away when they leave school to go out into life. Voss Literary Society helps to develop the individual along lines of scH-ex- pression. gives him an opportunity to gather knowledge that will be invaluable to him later. and gives him a clear insight into what other students on the campus are thinking. It is to be regretted that there are not more students at Carthage who are anxious to take advantage of the opportunity that awaits them in Voss Literary Society. C.

What is more, this enthusiasm did not die down. but has: remained very much in evidence throughout the year. Meetings are held Every Monday night. Sometimes they are devotional meetings and at other times they take on the form of open diScussions. There has been a decided growth in attendance this year and certainly each member has been benefited by the in- spiring meetings. Although we look back on a prosperous year. there is still much that could be accomplished by the Y. M. C. A. We have not succeeded in bringing each fellow in college into the associationt although a wonderful advance along this line has been made. No doubt, every boy in school has felt the inHuence 0f the Y. M. C. A. to some extent. but we wish to strengthen this iuHuence still more in the future. Through discussion of practical subjects each member has profited greatly; and many able leaders have been developed to take the work of the Association in hand. We do not hesitate to predict a prosperous future for the Association on our campus. 11:. Ii. HAUSKNECHT Mrmtm Jonxsm: Commox HARTMANN Junk ACKER n ILKIX Gounecxe Bovlsxselm'r'r. .h'Ein Ixuxw. ILLLERHL'SH Y. W. C. A. The work of the Carthage Y. W. C. A. is. so diverse in its nature that it is often difheult for nnn-members to rccugnize the work it is doing. This organi- zation has for many years enjoyed the recognition of the student body and faculty as one of the most active of the college organimtions. Moreover, it has enjoyed an extensive membership. comprising all of the Denhart Hall residents and many of the town girls. The religious work of the organization has been accomplished both in the weekly meetings and in the prayer services held less often. Both of these have contributed much to the individual spiritual life of the girls. The religious work of the organization is not cmihned slrietly to its membership. Under the aus- pices 0f the organization Dr. Ingmlstad, a very inspirational religious leader. was brought to our campus. The Little Sisterii movement is conducted by the Y. XV. C. A. each year. This movement provides for the assimilation of the new girls into the life of the college, helping them to become real Carthaginizms almost immediately, The ttY. W. has worked for the betterment of our college and for closer cooperation of students and faculty. Aecordinghy this year an investigation was conducted regarding the question of honesn' in exams and a report was made before the entire student body. Delegates have been sent by the organization to Y. W. C. A. and Missionary conferencem including the inspirational Geneva meetings. These delegates have brought back to the organization much of real worth. D. M. KM'i'semuc Wumx Fme NIELSON THE STUDENT VOLUNTEER BAND The Volunteer Band has been active during the past year in Bible and Mission study. Regular meetings were held for devotion and study. Dr. Edward Pfeiiferhs book Mission Studiesn has guided us in our survey of the held. Special emphasis has been placed upon the Missionary Message of the New Testament. Besides the regular Volunteers we have had the helpful cooperation of other students interested in Social Service. Our year has been especially worthwhile in a spiritual sense. A brief resume of the history of the Volunteer Band at Carthage College might help to make clear the aims and ideals of the organiyation. It was organized in 1887, with only four members. All of these four had decided definitely to become foreign missionaries. They attended the state convention of Student Volunteers and became members. The 1Voluntem' Band has flourished at Carthage. Regular meetings have been held, and a great deal of good work has been done in an inspirational and educational way. A great many of our former members are now serving in the various mission fields. Most of them are working in the Far East. HELEN WILKIN Etamatics THE DRAMATIC CLUB The Dramatic Club hast under the leadership of its energetic president. Burt. Rocth, enjoyed a very successful year. So much talent was exhibited at the annual fall try-out that fourteen new members were taken into the club. Some of these new members. or nmphytes. rose to heights of positive genius at the time of the initiation. Everyone agreed that this yearhs initiation wast if not the best, at least the funniest in a long time. At the fall banquet it was decided that the club would present a three act play in the early spring. A committee was appointed. and plans were made. How well the committee functioned. and how well our plans succeeded is common knowledge. Suffice it to say that 'hThe Goose Hangs Il'igh was acclaimed as the greatest success ever achieved by the Dramatic Club Mrs. Alice Rock Smith, who has become a member of the College faculty as Instructor in Dramatic Art and Expression1 agreed to act as our coach. A great part of the success of t The Goose Hangs lIing' was due to her efficient and in- spiring work. The club hopes to present another play before the close of the school year.

ROOT I-Zv KA M r Ill Wm: TON Warm THE TETRAHEDROX CLUB This society is composed of students in the Department of Chem- istry who desire an opportunity for informal discussion of the various scientifc problems of the day. It encourages inquiry into chemical matters1 and promotes a spirit of camradeship among the students of the Department. The club has done a great deal of constructive work in the past and has prm-en El source of inspiration to its membera With the growth in membership and the increased activity of Theta Chi Delta, it has been forced into the background somewhat, but all of us realize that there is a real need for an organization of this type on our campust and are looking forward to a year of interesting and worth-whilc effort. HDER 'WALESGATEREINn As we go to presst we learn that, under the leadership of Miss SeIma Kocnig, head of the Department of German, 3 new club has been formed for the promotion of a greater interest in tht: German language and German Literature. It seems that the members of the new organization are very enthusiastic and that htWalesga bids fair to become one of the livest organizations in the school. Long live der Deutsche VValesga Verein! thletits OUR COACH Coach Lewis Omer needs no introduction to any of the friends of Carthage College. As director of athletics here he has made in the paSL years a wide circle of friends. and has established an enviable reputation as a coach in all lines of sport. True, Carthage, under his tutelaget has not won championships. neither have we escaped entirely the disas- tmus seasons that come to every school. T-Inwever, Carthage now ranks as a Class HA school in athletics as well as in scholastic standing. The teams turned out by Omer enter into competition with teams represent- ing schools much larger than Carthage. What is more, when the whole period of Omeris work as coach here is considered. we 9nd that we have garnered more than our share of victories. However, a list of lop-sided scores. even when they lean the right way. does not always indicate a successful season. The foundation of American athletics is good sportsmanship. and Omeris men have always played a Cleant hard game. The ithlaliori! is a thorough student hf all lines of athletic endeavor, and is able to keep his teams abreast of the times. Carthage: teams always play the game as it should be played. Mast of the men who have graduated here and have gone into the coach- ing held have made a signai successt and a great deal of the credit for this success slwuld go to the man who patiently has taught them what. they know about athletics. Coach Omcr is well-Iikcd on the campus and on the athletic held. He has a personality. that has won the respect of all those who come in contact with him Those who know him best have found that he is a r-al pal as well as a gt'JOd coach. OUR MANAGER Luther Johnson has been a faithful. hard- training athlete ever since he came to Carthage. He has been disabled for active service by an injury to his leg a year ago, but has given his best, and has handled the managerk position faithfully and eEciently. The fine spirit Johnson has shown during his four years here should be an inspiration and example to others. 113 HALL OF FAME Established 1924 Membership in this; honorary organization is recognized as a reward for dis- . tinctive and faithful service in some branch of Carthage athletics. -.

CAPTAIN Roman; THE FOOTBALL SEASON Carthage started the season of 1926 with a Squad of veterans and hopes for a successful season were running high although the team faced the heaviest schedule in years. Coach Omer was handicapped in his efforts to turn out a hard-driving baekheld. Bess failed to return. Metternich was unable to come out due to in- juries received the year before, and Carlson had to undergo a surgical operation just before the opening of the season. Still. there was a wealth of good backfield material. and the line was the same Old stone wall that had represented Carthage for the last two seasonst After two weeks of training on a mud-eovered practice field Carthage journeyed to Peoria to ttTake On Bradley. champions of the Little Nineteen. lloweven we were outclassed in every department of the game and brought back the wrong end of a 58-0 score. This was the worst defeat Carthage has squered during the years Coach Omer has had charge of athletics here. The second game of the season was played at Jacksonville. Again the score was against us. the count. standing at 9-7. The boys were unable, perhaps. to put up their usual brand of football after an all-day boat excursion through the flooded Beardstewn district. Ellis seared Frst for Carthage when he fell on the ball behind the goal-line after Big Fred Ewald smeared an attempt to punt. Illinois came back with three points by booting over a pretty drop-kick from the thirty yard line In the last minutes of play they put the game on ice when an end snared a long pass and broke away for a touchdown. At Illinois W'esleyan. Carthage took another heating to the tune of 6-0. It was a hard-fought game but another pass spelled defeat for Carthage. A week later the tide began to turn. the gradually We did not win, but held Eureka to a 77 tie. Romeis picked up a fumble on the five yard line, nad gal- loped over; Eureka passed and bucked their way to a touchdown. The Erst home game of the season was played on a Friday afternoon, against the strong Iowa Wesleyan aggregation. They displayed lots of fight and scored early in the game through a beautiful pass, but a rally in the closing minutes of play that sent Zugsehwerdt crashing through for a touchdown tied the score at 7 all. Home Coming Day and lots of mud, rain, enthusiasm. and good football! McKendry would certainly have bitten the dust that day if there had been any to bite. Carthage started OH with the Old light, and, with Zug bearing the brunt of the attack, pushed over a touchdown in the hrst few minutes of play. The big red team was hitting on all eleven that day and ran the score up to 38-0 before the final whistle sounded. Culver-5t0ckton was the next to fall. It was a cold daj' as days in November are apt to be, but the Carthaginians slipped into their trusty mittens and went ahead. The final score was 2.9713. Driving smashes 0H tackle by Stei'lej: and Ihrig. zlnd Gubelmanls beautiful passing to Ellis. were features of this game. On Thanksgiving Day we dug up the hatchet for the annual battle with our I ancient rivals from Macomh. This eonFiet proved to be a naval engagement and the spectators were all Elt sea as to the outcome. W'ith Crum, the old sea- going tank, leading the parade. Bob steamed through the line and around the end for long gains time after time. Carthage scored in the first half. At the opening of the second half, a Maeomb man picked up a fumble and swam ever the line, but Crum blocked a kick, and Romeis recovered behind Macombls goal line, so everything turned out all right. The hnal score was I3-6. The graduation of Fearheiley. Morrison, Zug, Ewald, Knoeppel, and Ellis will leave a big gap in the forward wall, but a wealth Of new m zlterial was developed during the past season, so that we look forward with confidence to another success- ful season next yeart PAUL ROM ms ancis Junior Loft End Age 20 Weight 165 The team was so well pleased with the work of Rtirncis as captain that they rc-clectcd him captain lot the season of 1927. Nothing that We could say about his playing would speak as loudly as the fact that twice his team mates have given him the highest honor that they have to bestow. He is a captain who can hold his posititm and neither coach nor players are worrying about who will play the left wing next fall. J01: M. FI-ZARIIEILY IIJOBh, Senior Center Age 23 Weight 180 iijoeh has played his last football for Car- thage College and with regret the other players the coach and fans see him go. He has taken part in thirty-two games in four years, and has missed only tifteen minutes of playing in that time. W'c 100k for great things from him as a coach. FRED EW'ALD ti High Pockets Senior Left Tackle Age 25 Weight 196 Fred showed 1cm for another season that he is still rough. Down at McKcndrcc and Culver Stockton they usc his name to frighten the babies when they cry. Mac over at Eureka openly rejoices that ho. is gone. The Home folks think that he is the best ever for they gave him the football that goes to the mast valuable player to the team. Again he made one of the mythical All-Stzite teams. 'tWe shall meet but Wf: shall miss him. CiteSTea ICLLIs hChep Senior Right End Age 23 Weight I70 Ellis lived up to his last yearls reputation as a player lScc 1927 Ramblerl but he lost his qualities of .lquiet antl unassuming . Chep had a girl er suppose he still has a girl. No longer does he write to mother but after each game he would ask the fare to Bluffst He played just as good ball as ever and will be hard tn replace It Will be a long time before the Coach forgets his comment at the Bradley game, llWell. Couch how can you tackle lemt if you cant catch 'cm. Chester is a hardworking faithful athlete and in his four years delivered more goods than many men who had higher athletic rating in the col- lege community. He will be a credit to Car- thage College wherever he goes. WEMER ZUCSCHWERDT lizugglv Senior Full Back Age 21 Weight :93 llZuggl, is another candidate for the uFive Yard :1 club captained by the famous McCarty Of Chicago. W'henever a touchdown was needed Zugg,1 went out and got it It will be a long time bolero we forget the way he Crashed through the lWestern Normal team on Turkey day. 1When he had crashed over the line and needed a rest he was put into the guard position and thus earned the reputation of being the man who had two jobs on the team. Pun. MORRISON 'lPhil Senior Guard Age 22 Weight 222 Morrison graduates with only two years of football experience. Last fall he played real college ball and we only wish that he could have had his full quota of football Only late in the season did he really learn how to use his weight. He was a cog in a link: which will not have an equal soon at Carthage. LEROY KNOICPPEL ll Busco Senior Right Tackle Age 22 Weight 175 Knoeppcl showed this year that a man with determination can make the team any time he determines hard enough. He lacked foot- ball experience, but ill; that played one of the consistently best games of any one 0n the line. He was a stubborn lighter and was the find of the year in line play. LYNN CRUM Lynnl' Junior Left Guard Age 21 Weight 220 Crum played his usual hue game. Next year he will be the only veteran on the line and it will be his to develop the fighting spirit among his team mates which will carry them to victory. He is aggressive, knows football thoroughly and with the added responsibility of setting the pace for a green line will show the Little Nineteen teams that Big Ewald is not the only hard hitter from Mt. Carmel. ONLIN XVMxER lW-Yalk Sophomore Fullback Age m Weight 165 Mrs. Omar spoke out of her turn when she told the Coach that W'alker is such a nice boyll, for we all know he delights in springing such remarks at the wrong time and in the wrong place. But just the same looks are deceiving l'W'alk is the toughest lllittle'I man in college and can hit the line like a thirteen inch shell. In a football game he likes 'em rough and has been injury proof so far. But crossing our fingers we predict K-Vulker will still be rOughing them up in the center of the line next year in spite of the wonderful fullbacks that are reported to be coming in with the freshman class of next fall. Iit'mu-mt; IHRIG HGCDC Sophomore Right I'lzllf Age 20 l'l-Tcighl 155 Gene was a very fast and slippery hack tno pun intendedl and in spite of the bad playing fields showed that he has unusual open held ability. Vt'ith a season where the Held is dry Carthage college will demonstrate that it was not the muddy hclds that enabled them to run through over and around our neighbors to the cast Gene earned himself a place in the hearts of the fans and should he better than ever next fall. ROY STEFFEY i:RO'x'l1 Sophomore Left Half Age 22 Weight 175 Smiley is a big fast half who also would have ran wild over the conference teams with a dry- field. He is a hard fighter. likes to win and gives his best in every game. This is his second year on Carthage but this year he was of wonderful value to the team. He did most of the punting1 was a left handed passer and was a valuable triple threat man. With a years added training he will undoubtedly be one of the backfield stars of 1927. BOB GUBELMAN ti B0b3! Sophomore Quarterback Age 21 Weight 175 Like Ihrig, Bob needed a dry held and not a single time did he cavort on a decent grid- iron during the season of 1926. Coach Omcr claims that the law of averages governs the rainfall. He further states that in tiftccn home games in six years twelve of them have been played in the rain or mud. If that is the case Gubelman should draw a dry season next fall and if he does. this quadruple threat of a pass, a kick. a run or a backward pass will make him the most famous citizen of Carthage; He is a big fellow and faster than ever and should be back in his freshman form next year. BRUCE LYMAN llLady', Sophomore Left Half Age 20 Weight 155 Lyman was any of the pony backs Omcr ust when the big backs were worn out and was perhaps one of the keencst defensive players on the team. He will bid for an end position with Sam Bess back and should be able to fill Ellis:J shoes both offensively and defensively. Hc is very fast and is a good open field runner. He had no football experience before last year. ROBERT Amy: is Bob :3 Sophomore Center-Guard Age 22 Weight 160 Alder is the hrst foreigner who was ever able to make the team. By foreigner we mean that he comes from another school not that he hails fmm over-scas. He is a migrant and the school which let him get away made a misstep. He is a strong defensive player and passes well from center. He will be a valuable man next fall with the big mcn gone. OTTO BRUHLMAN .hJimi' Freshman Fullback Age 18 Weight 167 Bruhlman won his spurs in the W'esleyan game at Bloomington. I-lc backs the line nicely and is a good substitute for W'alker 0r Zugschwerdt when ground is nedccd through the center. He is a husky fellow and is one Of the few city boys coming here to play foot- ball who appreciated that they play football two hundred and fifty miles from Chicago. STEPHEN Danica Steve Freshman Right Half Age 19 VVcighl I4; Steve was another of what the coach called his lrabbit backs and he ran and dodged like 21 rabbit at thaL He is a three letter man and should rank with Morrison and Ellis for versatility. He received his foot- ball tutelage under HSlim Beard and is another of the Mt. Carmel Flashes. He is a quiet follow for when Omcr picks e1 bed fellow 011 trips where the men double up, he lets Ellis and Dozier draw straws to see who sleeps with him. lVaICh him in the pole vault. MARLIN HACKEXDORF ltMolly Freshman Right Tackle Age 13 W'eight 178 In Hackendmf Cartilage has a tackle who will come close to holding up Big Frcdls repu- tation. He is very fasti aggressive. uses his hands and tackles well. While Carthage drew few freshman football players last fall KlMolly was a prize packAgc and will make a strong big for the tackle job 0n the right side of the line. XYILLIAM Juilxsox 'Billll Freshman Guard, End Age 18 Weight 168 llBill Johnson is another freshman who will make a line berth on the 1927 team. He is a big quiet. curly haired fellow, whom every- body likes and he is a finished football player coming from the crack Dixon team. He plays a strong game and will improve with age and confidence. CA PTAIK CARLSUN THE BASKETBALL SEASON The basketball season might be termed an utter disaster. Certainly: it wan a disastrous season when we consider games won and lost. All of our conference games had to be chalked up on the defeat side of the ledger. It is a hard task, also. to discover reasons for the misfortunes that. overtook us. The team that represented Carthage this year was composed almost entirely of veterans. TrueJ Knoeppcl was lost 10 the squad in mid-scason through illness, but his place was ably Filled by two Freshmen. Dozier and Larson. Carthage met very strong teams this year, and went down to defeat time after time. We can say. however. that they went down thting. W7C consider it nc disgrace to be beaten by teams such as those that represented Augustana, Macomb. Illinois W'csleyan. Eurekat and others. It is time. however, that the student body awakens t0 the situation here and does its part. School spirit has been on the decline here for several years, and something must be done at once if the old C. C. spirit, of which we are so proud. is not to be lost entirely. It is hard for us to turn Out and cheer and raiSe the roof when, deep down in our hearts, we expect defeat. That is the trouble here. Car thage students seem to be developing an inferiority complex. Wye need more school pride along every line. We need to be more ucocky . If Carthage is to grow and prosper weW'e gm to tell the world that we're tickled to death to be Carthagin- ians. Let us forget the season just past. as far as the defeats we sutTered are concerned and resolve that in the future the student body is going to get behind the team and root, and help in every other way passible. We have a good coach, and some fnc material for a winning team. Some students believe that a new gymnasium would work wonders, hut school spirit of the right kind will do more than the finest equipment to help produce a winning basketball team next year.

Against the heaviest odds Harry was always trying and setting a pace hard to follow. Harry has given four years of good basketball to Carthage College and those of us who saw him in the last game against Augustalm know that he will be a hard man to replace. LEROY KXOEPPEL uMox Forward Knoeppel was again. as he has been for Four years. the high scorer 0f the team. Always closely guarded, he was able to carry the team's offense in a manner creditable to his basket- ball ability. He played in hard luck and his illness before the Iowa W'esleyan game cost Carthage several games. He will long be remembered by the fans. I015 FEARH EILET thJoe'h ' Standing Guard Fearheiley is a steady heady. player and contributed much to the defensive work of the team. He was cool headed and effective and solved many plays before their successful completion. He was dangerous from the center of the ftoor and was a very valuable player to the team. Joe has worn the ttRed for the last time. CH ESTER l'ILLIs bl Chcp'l, Running Guard Ellis was. as he has been for the past four years, :1 faithful, hard-training players. always giving his best cheerfully. He was a clever guard and rarely was outplayed. He has completed his four years of basketball playing. P1111; MORRlsox hPhiI Center Morrison played in every position on the team and was a harmonizing factor in team play. He is the fastest big mam of the year and always carried the possibility of breaking up a game by a winning streak. The laugh which his size called out when he appeared on the floor always changed to expressions of admiration over his wonderful Hoar work and passing. He also has played his last for Car- thagc. R. If. GLYBELMAX Bob is a happy-go-lucky fellow who is cn- dowed with much natural ability as a basket- ball player. He httcd into the machine much better this year and with the added responi sibility of being :1 veteran player next year should make a real name for himself On the basketball H0011 He has two more years to play. STEPH EN DoztI-tk Steve'i Forward nAgreesive. fast. and accurate , hest de- scribes llSteve as a basketball player. He is the most faithful trainer on the squad and will go far in Carthage athletic history before he graduates. When he was tthot'l he pm- claimed it to the world and usually proved it. Next to Knoeppel he was the high scorer 0f the team and will he the leader in offensive playing next year. He is a freshman in years but should he breveted senior when it comes to dependability. UXLIN W14 LKER Babyface'l Standing Guard Donlt let that name ttBabyrfacel, make you think that there is anything tender about Walkerls basketball. He is a dandy football man and the ability to rough it is sometimes carried over into the game where personal contact is at a discount. Walker played a good game this year and his work in the last Culvcr-Stockton game will stand out as. UHC of the bright spots of the 1927 season. EUGENE IHRIG KGene Running Guard HGene played a very good game this year and showed better basketball as a sophomore than as a freshman. He is fast, aggressive, and heady, and should be able to Fill Ellisls shoes next year. He, like Gubelman and lPl'alker, is a sophomore. CARL LARSON ttSwede Forward Carl was the busy bee of the Carthage team and is a natural basketball player. He became a freshman in February and still has a great deal to learn about the great Amreican indoor game, He possesses the qualifications to become a very valuable player if properly developed. He handles a' ball well and has a good eye. CAPTAIN ELLIS I' . ' skid h! 'kh 'myi I r M36! r L 15.1. '. 1 1, m3 .333 $353 - - .. r. THE TRACK SEASON The track season of 1926 was fairly successful. The team won a dual meet from Culver Stockton fit; to 65 and gallnped away with the Maeumb meet by a score of 71 tr: 55. ltlred Mueller was the hem of the Culver meet. as he won the necessary points in the last event against the Missouri Ieapers by less than two inches. The feature of the schedule was the institution of 21 triangular meet with Augustana zlnd Monmouth which will be an annual again In this meet Carthage took second. In this years State Meet held at Jacksonville a new Carthage Star V218 dis- covered when Phil Morrison won the shot put from a big field Painter was un- fortunate in that he lost the last Collegiate high hurdle race of his career and this was also the hrst race over the high sticks that he has ever lost in Little Nineteen Competition. His record of I36 made in his freshman year still stands. MARTIN SHOEMAKER SENIOR DASHES Pinkey was unfortunate in that he never fully recovered from a pulled muscle he sutierecl in the state meet of 1925. He was a good captain and kept the team working hard all the time. WALTER JEPSEN SENIOR DISTnNc ES Jep was a winner in his event in the dual meets and einched both meets by re- peating m the two mile for second place. He will be a hard man to replace. HENRY LEE SEMOR DISTAXCES Hankls win against Macomb was the most popular victory staged by any Carthage man this year. Hank had trained for four years without having made a letter and in his last year set a record which should stand for some time. His spirit is 3. Erie example for future Carthage Trackmcn. W'YVERNE PAINTER SENIOR. HURDLES Medals was a man who ranked as high point man in almost every dual meet in which he performed. Painter also holds the only state record held by a Car- thaginian at the present time. CHESTER ELLIS JUNIOR MIDDLE DISTANCES Chep stood so well with the men that he was elected captain for 1927, He is a hard worker and trains carefully. We wish him success with the 1927 team. PHIL MORRISON jUNIUR WEIGHTS Phil has proved again that in track hard work is the only open sesame to success. Starting at 36 feet in his freshman year he has built up his shot putting to over 42 feet. In the discus he also has established a college record which will stand a long time unless he breaks it himself. JULIAN LEMMRE SOPHOMORE lrlr-EIGHTS AND DASIIES The big Frenchman from Bascn was one of the high point men in our meets and held a Carthage College record in the discus for less than a minute. He wax consistently a winner in the dashes and will be missed next year as he has elected to turn farmer for 21 season at least. LYNN CRUM SOPHOMORE Jnvaux Crum has been a steady winner in thc javclin and will be an important factor 111 our meets in 1927. He should be able to help Morrison in the weights next year. HAROLD SPARKS Sopuomonz . DISTANCES Sparky, like his famous namesake of Barney Gonglc fume. has lots of speed. Nothing but his lack 0i confidence kept him from winning more races last year. Coach Omer ventures to predict that he will develop into the greatest distance runner ever to represent Cartilage. DONALD WEBB SOPHOMORE Qu-xRTER-MILE Don is a spunky little runner and always gives somebody a race. 'With another year at the 440 distance he should turn In several Wins. HAROLD LUCIE Somomonr. WEIGHTS Lucie is a deceiving man when it comes to heaving the shot and discus. He is very fast and has good form in his events. W'hen Morrison can get him to work from something less than a nine foot circle he should get the ball out forty fecte OLIVER DACCERT SOPHOMORE MIDDLE DISTANCE We lack 6. Roland for our Oliver but our Oliver has the most speed unlocked in the middle distances at Carthage for a long timct He is ideallyr built for track and has a long easy distance-eating stride that will carry him to many a victory in the next two years. HOWARD NIENABER FRESHMAX HURDLES Naber was lucky enough to be in a race where Painter ran Mann into too many hurdles and he stepped out manfully and took second place in the triangular meet. He will be our First string hurdlcr this jrcar and will have a big manls shoes to Fill. MILO THOMAS FRESHMAN DASH ES llMikc was a second Charley Paddock for build and speed and has a won- derful future as a sprinter.He had a pulled muscle in the Triangular meet and. this kept him from measuring up with the best in the state meet.

A, was formed four years ago. under the direction of Miss Ruby Holton who was then the Girls? Physical Director. It was formed for the purpose of in- creasing interest in athletics for girls by promoting and managing inter-class contests. The following plan was adopted: A girl who had played a certain amount of time in a game. and who had appeared for the required number of practice periods was to be awarded a class numerai for that sport and Ffty 01' one hundred points I'depending upon the amount and the character of work doneJ. The points were to be added until the girl had 400 points in three diH'erent sports. when she was to be given a black ttCh similar to those given the bays. The G. F. A. is continuing this work now, under the direction of Miss Mae Ruppel. The introduction of regular gymnasium work for the girls has, of murseJ heightened interest in all kinds of athletic activity, and has made this year a banner year for Girls'h Athletics at Carthage. Volleyball teams were organized at the beginning oi the year, and some interesting tussles between various groups were staged. A great deal of hiking was done this fall, and a competitive element was introduced through a WTrip t0 SpringEeIdh contest. During the winter and early spring. of cOurse, basketball reigned supreme. Plans are now under way to hold a regular track meet, tennis rackets will soon be in evidence, and devotees of the hhnational gameh are now, it is said, limbering up their good right arms. and sharpening up the 01d batting eye, in preparation for a busy- season. H. A. B A H K E T B A I. L This sport seems to be the general favorite. The Season ended with a tourna- ment in which the Freshmen won the Championship. As an additional treat for the fans, em ull-star game was played. Two teams were selected from the four competing teams, and were made up of the best players in the school On March 29th, the uYellow Bandits were contiuerecl by the H$hooting Stars by a score of 33-29. Iola Casbum led the llStars'K and the following were members of her team: Goedecke, Levitt, Iiincker, Mekemsom W'eiheT Flohn Inmam and Grigg. Fanny Syme was Captain of the Bandits and her bloodthirsty crew was com- pOSCd of Waltherst Webb, McCune. Kuilr. Williey. Hunziker. Barton, and Baden- sehatz. liliditorls Noteihll'e regret very much the fact that this tournament was played so late in the year. that it was impessible to include in the Rambler pictures of the various Contesting grOups.j MAY FETE AND PAGEANT The May Fete and Pageant are to be repeated this year. due to the success which they scored last spring. At this time it is not known who is to be the May Queen. She was elected by popular vote of the Student Body and the results are being kept a secret until the day on which she is crowned. She will be crowned by last yearls May Queen, Esther Danner. In honor of the Coronation. the toys will come to life and dance hefme her throne. There will be various dancese among them Rag Doll dances by Raggedy Ann and Andy. The Blocks will hold an Alphabet Ball; the parade of the Wooden Soldiers will be an interesting feature; the Gypsies, Pixiesi Hurdy Gurdies, Clowlm Nymphst and Flowers will dance before before the queen. The Fete will conclude with the Maj: Pole dance. The Spring Pageant will tell the story of Aladdin and the Vtionderlul Lamp . The poor Chinese boy. Aladdin, is saddened because the 1kli'ealthy children neglect him. A magician gives him a wonderful lamp. By rubbing it he can bring to his aid troops of geniii They help him, and Enally he grows c0anent and aspires to the hand of the Chinese Princess. Princes from all lands bring their dancers to add to the revels of the Chinese eourtt but. the Princess spurns them all except Aladdin. The King, however, does not favor him. By rich gifts he obtains the favor of the King and everyone rejoices in the great happiness of the two lovers. 13G QEalenhar 137 Registration begins Excitement all around: Everyone is busy hearing the summervs news and greet- ing the new arrivals.
