Born in Bridgewater, South Dakota, she spent the early years of her life running over the fields and crags 0f the wild northern farm lands. Her teaching experience began at 17. Her extreme interest in English, history and biology spurred her on to further study. Hcr unselfish dcsirc to aid students in becoming acquainted with the mysteries of nature fmally narrowed her major interest to biology. The two black-bound volumes 0n 2 shelf in her library represent six years of careful exami- nation and observation of the plants about Han- cock county. No leaf remained unturned- thcsc books, hcr doctorhs thesis, are proof. From the top floor of the Science hall where 4:0 students studied biology, she has seen her department move into an entire building where hundreds of would-bc scientists have passed through her hands. Students who have gum: out from Carthage t0 achicv: recognition in thc Held of science are living proof of her teaching ability. The light in the window of biology hall late at night is a symbol of her continual rcscarch. For her ycars of service in the past and future -we gratefuiy dcdicatc this book to Dr. Alice L.

Most of us can remember when Carthage College had an enrollment at little over the 200 mark. Then the veterans came along. The new dormitory was built. Then the cafeteria was shifted from the now Denhart parlcns t0 the new Commons. Later the new athletic lights, the Home EC. building, and a host of other improvements hit the campus to give it Change. Things like Collegeville and the Union were unheard of in those days. But the students lived through it all . . . . the improvements, the hardships and the fun. For three years we've listened to senior classes saying goodbye. It always seemed to be a needless affair, but we hated to see them go. Now welre departing . . . . we're the ones to say goodbye. Though we leave Carthage halls with a feeling of sadness, we may always look back on the good times we had. Not only may we look back on a building expansion, but we may look back on a. complete rejuvenation of the college itself. The size of the faculty has almost tripled. The athletic program has expanded to such an extent that Carthage can compete with schools twice its size. And the size of the college is larger. The number of students has tripled . . . . quite un- like those somber days back in 194-5. But not all the graduates started their Car- thage careers in .45. Many are transfer stu- dents and many are veterans who are finishing their college Career in three years. Yes, Carthage College has changed and so has the senior class. We're proud of the col- lege and we're proud of our class. We're happy: to sag.r welre the largest graduating class Carthage ever had. And welre proud of the good times we'lve had and well forget the bad ones. 5 .A. Cap and gunman 55f Sli-Csm 519530ch . . . Smiur Class Largcst In History Of Carthage Leaving the. L'vcrgrccns and the ancient portals of Old Main this year is a senior Class that traps the century mark. Yrs; mm one hundred seniors are graduating this ymr. This group will mark thc biggest graduating Class Carthage College has ever had. This ycni-IR class taps. last yearis rccord-brmking class of 92 by 16 members. But if predictions hold 11116. the 1950 gmd- uatingr class will be larger than this one. Several prominents were among the 1949 graduating Class. Seven of the graduates were Piccted to Who's Who in Amcrican colleges. They were: Agnes Berg. Doris Horst. Harold Lcathcrby. Marion Litzcr. Mary Murphy. Carol Ann Prangc and Phyllis Schrcckcnbcrg. Probably the: biggest icadcr in the class is Harold Leatharhy. Lcathcrby was president of the 1949 class in his sophomore and junior years. i-Vhilc a senior. he was cicctcd president nI thi' stmh'nl mum'il.

Although the seniors have sponsored num- erous events during the year, probably thv most successful and popular was the Valentine formal in February. Events such as those have been characteristic 0f these. seniors . . . . one of thc tilasscs of which Carthage College may wvll be proud. Them happy senior; may well Iimk ahead to a surrmsful future.

Having completed a highly successful school year, the junior class is looking forward to tak- ing on the responsibilities placed upon them as seniom before embarking into the world. The juniors have been active this year in many events and paved the way to fill their upper class brotheris shoes in a variety of ways. Climaxing the year for the juniors is the presentation of the junior prom in the spring. The prom always follows the Lenten season and gives the students a chance to get back into the social limelight. Several juniors hit the top socially the past ytar. Probably one of the leaders was Al An- 16 demon who was the only junior out of a roster of eight to be elected to Whois Who. Al has been an active member in various activitiese dorm president, Circle K and athletics. The junior class also forwarded select ma- terial in the form of athletes and club and 01'- ganization leaders. These leaders will un- doubtedly continue in that capacity when they enter into the business world after graduation next year. This blending of a varied background will undoubtedly place the juniors in a position where they will be able to handle the major activities of the 1950 Carthage College year.

Largest Graduating Class May Be Beaten By Next Yearls Seniors The 1949 Carthage College graduating class is the largest to ever hlc through the portals 0f the registrars office. But it may be beaten in size by next yearls seniors. To date, the present junior class has an en- rollment which tops the seniors. But drop-outs 26 may occur and a variety of combinations may result to change the total graduates next year. But it all looks good for juniors. Chances are, their total will exceed the 1949 class. Last year's graduating class Set a new ree- Urd in an all-time high in size. Now this yearls class has topped it. If the 1949 junior Class again breaks the graduating record, a new trend may be established at Carthage College, resultw ing in an enviable total enrollment in the held of American small colleges. - .. CRIMSON RAMBLER H . ffnttoafuairzg Ulla gopgomote Cfaii . . . The suphomnre class of Carthage College spent the year enjoying their newly-found supe- riority over the lowly freshmen. At last their greenness has been discarded and they have had a chance to avenge the many sufferings they received when they were freshmen. The sophs began the fall term with an ap7 propriate initiation ceremony. The hrst few days were enjoyed by the freshmen as their upper-class ttbuddics', fairly uknocked them- selves out! trying to please the new campus greenies. But revenge was in their souls and soon a well-rounded program of hairncurling escapades was planned for the never-suspeeting freshmen. Neither women nor men escaped the evil doings of the stellar sophomores. Girls were forced to parade the campus minus make-up, hair-dos and alI-around glamour. Guys were seen strutting the streets in get-ups that would put a Hollywood make-up artist to shame. Nor did many escape the rare privilege, of entering freshmen court. Late at night the inner halls of Denhart and Memorial rccked with screams combined with laughs as the upper clammen sought to appease their revenge- ful souls. But at Homecoming time it was Over and the fresh were none too glad. But their punish- ments were taken with ease and the freshmen only used this knowledge gained as a back- ground for similar feats next year. And the gaiety did not deprive the sopho- mores from leadership. Many successful Iead- em arose during the year. With such an all- amund active participation, Carthage College has much to look forward to in the class of 1951. gopgorno'za dram Offtcsu Wendell Golden Preside m Roger Hansen Vice President Winnie Johnson Prof. Ralph Hansen Sen'etary-Treesurer Sponsor Golden, Johnson, Hansen uW-w -wrv-gN-W- r.-..4-un-a'a-. 28 :Mild red A: 1dcrsol1 Priurcton ClifT Buummm Harvard Ron Bctlu lilkhnrl, Ind.

Carthage College lost one of its most promising students when George D.

On the campus only two weeks before his death, Erb already had become one of the besL-liked students in school. His ready smile and easy friendly manner won for him a1 host of campus friends in a short time. Hrh came to Carthage highly recom- mended by his pastor, the Rev. Robert L.

Erb also made some enviable scholastic records. In a large city-sized school. he ranked well in the upper quarter of his graduating class. Erb was big for his age, 215 pounds. flve fccte nine and onenquarter inches. The Carthage coaches already were eye- ing him, and making room for him on the varsity. Erb was an albaround good student.

When the formal air of the classroom is put away, these men and women become counsellors, guidance workers, lecturers, critics, judge; and companions in our work and play at college.

Jud; Harris and :1 ttdtej' Shaw Editor and Assistant Editor In its second successful year at Carthage Coliege is the twiee-weekly chapel programs as part of the curriculum of the school. The col- lege chapel program is an example of the re- ligious orientation plan oi the college. It rests securely in the capable hands of Chaplain Har- old E. Bernhard who attempts to cut across every phase of campus life to emphasize religion for the student. This year, more than in the hrst year of chapel at Carthage, Chaplain Bernhard has made use of the movie to present a Christian message to Carthage students. Then, too, the Carthage College chapel pro- gram has been outstanding in its successful bid for integrated education. Programs have been, not only varied, but versatile as well. The chapel program has been the spark plug of such major projects as Christian Emphasis Week, February 2? to March 1, a two-day Family Relations clinic, April 11 and 12, and 21 Chris- tian Careers conference, May 2 through May 5. Christian Emphasis Week featured the Rev. h. Cgapaf 61 Waziecf, Wawatt'fa, 0419010245. . . . Dr. B. S. Hjortland, senior pastor of Central Lutheran Cathedral in Minneapolis. The fame ily relations clinic obtained the expert services of Dr. Evelyn DuvalI, a noted authority on her subject. For the Christian Careers conference, Chaplain Bernhard obtained the services of several speakers from the board of education, ULCA. In these times of integrated Christian cdu- eation in which religion is a part of every phase of the educational program, no discussion of Carthage Colleges religious life is complete without some attention to convocation pro- grams, under the chairmanship of Prof. Elmer Hanke of the music department. Although the convocation committee works somewhat independently of Chaplain Bernhard, the programs have overlapped on many ocea- sions, and rightly' so. The Moody Bible Institute, for example.1 has contributed fllms that show God's miracles in science during the Friday morning convoca- tion hour. Cgapfain . . .

The a cappella Choir is under the direction of Prof. Elmer Hanke. Prof. Robert W'OIH acts as choir manager and organist. The college touring choir was organized in 1927 and toured every year since then with the exception of a brief interlude during the past war years. Highlightingr the tour was a Sunday evening engagement at the Rm-kefcllcr Memorial Chap- rtl on the University of Chicago campus. CJhL cage papers were Hooded with complimentary comments on the windy city area concerts. The season's tnur was closed with :1 home concert in the field house. Preliminary con- certs were given in t'hurchcs in Kcokuk and Quincy.

That Christmas Festivities Are Yearts Highlights Highlighting the winter sea- son are the Christmas festivities on the campus. 'l'hcsc auxtivities revolve around a. whirl of events that would even keep old San- ta's head buzzing. The Crimson Rambler-In- dian dance started the snowball rolling with a hep-to affair early in December. A hoor show combined with the music of Stan Richgs orchestra. rounded out the evening for the lucky couples. A few nights later the two womerfs dormitories and hdem- orial Hall combined to furnish the yearly presentation of open house. Both gals and guys worked for days ahead to pre- pare their rooms and corridors in true holiday fashion. During the night the halls and rooms were hlled with laughing people as randy, cook- ies and C h r i s t m a s goodies changed hands. After the halls quieted and the crowds left, the women traveled over the campus to sing carols t0 the men in MemoriaL Later the men retaliated by a duel serenade at Dcnhart and North Halls. Then in a few days trunks and suitcases were packed, and the students: left the rampus for lheir homes. jfe'gltugggu Keith I:' I cfemuch Hie Cfocfo: Wig gay Ofaf Uinzai . . .

Carthage College, full of frivolityt has its usual quota of gay blades. These gay lads and lassies find a wide eir- ele of activities to keep them hopping all year around. Dances, dinners and parties: are on the social roster for the year. 'Iihere's fun for all, and few sit around to while away the hours. FALL ACTIVITIES PLEASE FRESHMEN In the fail the freshmen are early initiated into activities ranging from picnics and par- ties to dances and bull sessions. The Saturday night date may be a trip to the W'oodbine or a picnic at the lake. The ever-pepular football games help fill the youthful ttgoir requirements. This year. the new lighted field added to the popularity of the gridiron and school spirit reached a new high. HOMECUMING TIME In October itis homecoming time and the Carthage College campus is decked with brilliant colors as alumni and friends re- turn to the old aima mater. The 194-9 Homecoming chalked up a full roster of 300 returning alumni. - Rounding out the Homecomv ing program is the big formal following the game. This year couples enjoyed dancing to the delightful music of Sherman Hayes and his orchestra. November is party time and a variety of activities are al- ways on the entertainment bill. 'l'hereis the square danees. the record dances. the hay rides and the. walks in the brisk alutum air. Soon its basketball time :15 football tags are forgotten for the. hardeourt. PRE-Huumv SEASON HITS Ulimaxing the pre -huliday season Were open house and the. Rambler-Indian Sponsored dance. The yuletide atmosphere blends with thoughts of going home as student spirits are at their peak. But soon the home-goers re- turn, only to be fared with final examinations in January. Much of the gaiety is temporarily for- gotten as the students uhit the books . Midnight emm- ming replaces bull Sessions and ttspreads . SECOND SEMESTER FOLLOWS Then second semester is here before youive recovered from that ttbetter - than - average grade you received in the Zool- ogy final. Students register and new Carthaginians arrive on the campus. All is bedlam for a few days. Soon the subdued campus life returns and conditions return to normal. In February the Valentine prom is held and that pre-Lenten dance is scheduled. The serious side of the pie- ture is again viewed as Lent appears and dances are thrust aside for more important topics. Parties reappear, however, and stunt night, plays and other events take up the social plat- farm. SPRING VACATION ENJOYED BY ALL But Easter comes and once again students are off for spring vacation.

Courtesy copies of the Crimson Rambler were sent to high school libraries, while copies of the Indian, 215 long as they lasted, were dis- tributed to high schools in this area. INDIANS HELP Young men and women who signed up early for fall enrollment became acquainted with campus activities through copies of the Indian sent to their homes even before they arrived on the campus. lWhile the Students are on the Campus. the Public Relations othee attends their needs by supervising publication of the annual and the college weekly. The ofhee publishes a bi- monthly bulletin FOR PARENTS designed to keep the folks at home informed on campus and student activities. The Public Relations; Ul'FlCC maintains a ileity dcsk'l as part of its publicity department. This department is Charged with sending news re- leases, based on the achievements of Carthage. students, to hometown newspapers. Anjr' Carthage student who is mentioned in the INDIAN for joining a club, traveling to :1 eonvention, or being placed on the college honor tall, are the subject of news stories to their hometown papers. This phase of the publicity program is largely in the hands of Miss Audrey Shaw, assistant editor of the Crimson Rambler ?tl'td apprentice in college public relations. Miss Shaw sends out hundreds of such stories duringr the school year. SPORTS NIAKE HEADLINES The colleges intercollegiate and intramural Sports program also is a large Held for news- paper publicity. Sports achievements of Carth- age students have been the subject of many headlines and lengthy stories during the school year. Much of the responsibility for getting recognition for Carthage college students on the athletic field is in the hands; of Jack Harris, editor of the. Crimson Rambler :lntl apprentice in college public relations. Then, there is the most spectacular, hut not the most important Field Of public relations nationwide news releases. This year, at the ten best stories released by the Carthage college public relations othee, eight were distributed through press services and news syndicates, eventually to appear in every corner of the nation from Portland to Portland. The .Muman quartet and the Veteran! quartet. spread the name of Carthage 53' ztoic'e. PRESSMEN ON THE JOB Thc publicity department of the Carthage college public relations office would not have been effective if it wen: not for the cooperative efforts of Phil Breiding and Robert Fellows, both handy with the college press camera. Four times this year, large pictures of Carthage col- lege activities appeared on the back pictorial pages of the. Chicago Daily News and Tribune.

The publicity program of Carthage rollcgc run; across the boundaries of pre-studcnt. stu- dent, and post-studcnt relations. NEWS 3-'IAKF.S SHAKGHAL A news story in the Shanghai Evening Post last year. brought tears of reminiscence and a smile of pride to a hnmcsit'k alumnus in China. A news story of some Carthage college stu- dents achievement gets back to the student through rlippings from his family and friendst and makes him feel a sense of satisfaction that adds to his sclf-t'onhdt'ncc and spurs him on to greater achievement. And the college public relations director 7 Albert VN- alkcrhcontinucs his work, keeping his fingers on the many facets of Carthage college public relations. seeing to it that no Carthage mIlegc achicvcmmt goes unheralded, no Car- thaginian's quiet deeds slip by unnoticed.

It was built only last year but is already considered a regular part of the Carth- age College campus. The Commons is supervised by Ted Nichol- son. A staff of Outside help is supplemented by student workers. The students work in shiftshaltcrnating each day. The Commons is run on a non-profit basis. Although rising food costs ncccmitated an in- crease in board once this ycar, meals for stu- dents are still relatively cheap. The Commons employs ?13 students on a part-timc basis. This is the. largest number of student help in any one department on the campus. During Christmas vacation and during the summer months, the cafeteria is Closed.

A student Commons committee works with the cafeteria staff to promote cooperation and efficiency. One of the chief problems of the committee this year was to contend with tilinc cutters'i and broken dishes. Through extensive work, most of these discrepencics were elimi- nated. The equipment in the Cafeteria is modern. An electric dishwasher is used in the China Clipper.3 and other devices of the latest make are used in preparing meals. Before students leave for Christmas: vaca- tion, a special holiday dinner is planned. Other special meals at other holidays are planned throughout the year.

Practice Teaching Is Popular ClaSS In Education Field Practice teaching was in full swing this year at Carthage CoIlcge with 34 enrolled in first semesteris course and 28 in second semes- teris. Practice teachers obtained their teaching experience by teaching in various classes in the local high school and in the surrounding com- munities. State requirements for practice teachers are very similar to those of an interne in medicine. Practice teachers are required to do 60 hours of observation. and the remainder of the time, approximately 180 hours. is used in actual teaching or participation in teaching. The latter includes grading papers and preparing lessons. 'I'hese practire teachers also attend lectures by Dr. Frank Miller, head of the education department, and by Dr. M. S. Manson, prin- cipal 0f the local high school. The following criterion for practice teachers has been set up by Dr. Miller: 1. Scholarship 2. High mental capacity Freedom from physical defects Freedom from speech defects Good teaching personality Elimination of neurotic tendencies It seems that you can always point out a practice teacher on the campus because thcfre the ones dressed each day in their tlSunday best as they journey down to the high school to take over their classes. I Five hours credit is given for the teacher- to-be count; so much work is involved. Most of the students are fairly scrious-minded. how- ever, and devote a great deal of energy to the course. AS a result, grades usually run pretty high. The murse is generally restricted to seniors. but juniors may take it on special arrangement. 99.45: Students, somtf laughing and wide awake. others sleepy and snrinus. present a contrasting picture. as; they hurry to Class at thc sound of the first morning bcll.

The latest addition in the building plan on the campus is the Vocational Arts building which was completed for classes late in N0- vembcr. This $35,000 addition went under construction late in 1947. The uIle-story brick structure houses vocational arts, foods, and clothing classes in the home economics depart- ment. The foods laboratory features four complete kitchen units, a deep freeze, all metal storage cabinets, electric stoves and two garbage dis- posal units. The main laboratory, which is used for clothing, containS fitting rooms with mirrors and lights. gonzatfzinf; W509 .4 i unfu- ', l Vocational Arts Building Is Ninth Structure On Campus The Home EC girls seem to enjoy themselves as they keep busy An innovation in the clothing laboratory is totem trays, desks from which the drawers may be removed and placed in wall frames to form cabinets. A testing laboratory provides for the testing of foods and equipment for other ex- periments. Lighting features include fluorescent light aided by bilateral window structure.

These are the Fighting Redmen who dc:w voted so much of their time 50 that Carthage could have a winning team. These are the fellows who spent many hours in tough grid practice each afternoon. These are the fellows who came two weeks early to school last fall so they could get in extra practice. These are the fellows who put aside cxtra-curricular aetiviv ties last spring to have another two weeks? prac- tice under their belts. Still under the. tutelage of Roscoe Scott, head coach, and newcomer, line coach Bill Strickland, thc Redmcn repeated their 194-7 record of a split season. Only five lettermen will be lost through graduation this year, giving a returning roster of 19 men to an out the 1949 team. ' Quarterback Irwin Cox, Guard Ira Reeves, Center Walt Hardy, Quarterback Ed Nut! and Halfback Dick Gnetz are seniors and will not be in uniform next fall. Cox, a Evc-foott ten-ineh, 165 pounder, was the leading signal caller 0n the squad. Nutt, Bvc-foot, eight-inch, 19:3 pounds, quarterback, also called signals and pulled the team out of many tough spots. Hardy, five-foot, 10-inch, 175 pound cen- ter, was a mainstay on the squad, playing the larger part of every game. He played three Years of varsih football at Carthage and became a familiar figure to grid fans Goetz, fivc- foot 10- inch NU pound go- get- ter, also saw plenty of action during the 1948 season and lettered three years in varsity foot- ball. Reeves, live-foot, 10-inch, 180 pound husky. was a mainstay in the line and also 21 three-year letterman. Hardy, Nutt and Goetz are all local boys and played under Coach Scott when he. was head mentor at the Carthage high school. Their abilities will be sorelyr missed on next year's team. Next fairs squad will also be without the services of Coach Bill Strickland, who has given up college ball to return to coaching high school. CRIMSON RAMBLER .. u. giziagfcmcf stw Ugh. yaw: . . . Big Bill Takes Line; Scotty Is Mainstay Guiding the Redmen forward wall this year was Coach Bill Strickland, newcomer to Car- thage College and veteran high school coach for 21 years. Strickland piled up an impressive record in high school, both in football and basketball. His prep boys took second place in the Illinois Valley football conference for three successive years and hnished hrst in the Winchester invi- tational basketball tournament in 1945. Coach Strickland succeeded Henry J. Keil, now head football coach at Millikin University. Applying grueling tactics, Strickland developed the line, molding it into one of the toughest in the conference. Bill Strickland Roscoe W. Scott Roscoe Scott, or Scotty as the boys call him, was also a veteran high school coach before he came to Carthage last year. This year he was named director of athletics as a reward for his 1947 football success. Scott, who completed one year as head footu ball coach at Carthage, succeeded Paul LaVinn, now director of athletics at Eureka College. In his first year at Carthage, Scott built the college football team into a. C01 threat, leading the Redmen in one of their most successful seaw sons in recent years. This year was a duplicate of Scottis able abilities. His aggressiveness and his friendliness are indicative of his true coaching spirit. He has developed the Redmen grid squad into a tough competitor in the Little Nine and has reversed their former underdog position. .h w PRIMSON RAMBLER Cazzying 355 Qigagin . . . Highlights Of The 1948 Grid Season The Carthage College Redmen finished their 1948 footba11 season with a .500 average for the year with :1 four won and a Imlr lost record. Carthage tied with two other schools, 1111- ntlis College and Augustana C.?ollege for hfth place in the College Conference of Illinois. FIRST WIN AT PARSONS The Redmenis season got off in full swing at Parsons College in Fairheld, IowaJ Sept. 25. The Red and White topped the Kelly Greens 19-13 in what Parsons claimed to be a disputed victory. The Iowa game was highlighted by the ex- rellent passing, running and kicking of Backs Aram Gurunian and Ray Robinson who helped break a 13-13 tie in the closing minutes of the game. REDMEN LOSE UNDER ARCS The next game, played Oct. 1, the Redmen appeared for the first time in the history of the rollege under lights on their home field. Their opponents were the fast, hard-charging Leather- necks of 1Western State College. Two Carthage fumbles in the first half gave the Leathernecks a 13-0 lead when the half- time whistle blew. The second ha1f found the Redmen threatening the Western goal several times, but fumbles and bad breaks prevented a touchdown. Western crashed over for a third tally in the third quarter. A hard-hghting Carthage eleven rame back in the fourth period, however, to push over a lone marker. The game ended with the Red- men threatening to score again from the 18- 82 yard line. The game ended Western 20, Car- thage 6. FORESTERS HAND SECOND Loss Lake Forest knocked over the Redmen for their second Seasonal lose; Octuher 51. Under- dogs in the ennferenee, the Forestenf 8-0 win came as an unexpected surprise in Illinois sports Circles. The Redmen played heads-up ball, but an :meanny pzmsing offense. coupled with a series hf Carthage fumblex gave the Gnltl Coasters their lune tally plus :1 ttJLlfhiJZtCk. DROP HUMEGOMING TILT Still rm the downgrade, Coach Scott's grid- sters dropped the homecoming tilt in a close tussle with Millikin University October 16. The 14-13 loss marked the second conference defeat for the Redmen. The homecoming tilt pitted Coach Scottis ingenuity against that of Coach Henry Keil, now head grid mentor at Millikin but last yearis line coach and Scottvs assistant at Carthage. Cor FIRST CONFERENCE WIN The Redmen copped their first eonkrence win of the season when they bowled over Elm- hurst CJOIlege 18-0 at Elmhurst, October 23, Again fumbles and penalties stopped the Red- men in the first half with Elmhurst threatening the Carthage double-markers several times. The Redmen came into the limelight in the second half, however, by carrying the 132111 three times over the Pirates goal. Elmhurst threat- ened again, but :1 stirring Carthage line held the Pirates scoreless. LOSE TO CORN BOWL CHAMPS The sixth game of the season, phtyed Octo- ber 30, netted the Redmen a one-touchdown lose to stmng Illinois Wesleyan, winners 01 the glkgliflgfiti of E55 1948 SECZiOIZ . -.';..m,-'a'..-.-...-:. .zl; - 1948 Cam Bowl crown and also winners of the Little Nine championship. A drizzling rain handicapped both squads. but nevertheless, a series of passing plays were tried and completed. Carthage crossed the goal early in the first period, but Wesleyan made a driving comeback to even the score. The Titans whipped over a second marker in the second half to give a halftime score of 14-7. Neither team Scored in the third period. Vilesleyan intercepted a Carthage pass in the fourth period and drove to the six-yard line. On their fourth down they charged over the goal. The Redmen came back with an 85wyard march down the field that gave them their see and tally. The game ended however, with Wesleyan still holding a 21-13 edge over Car- thage. CARTHAGE ELEVEN Is Tops This game marked one of the finest and hardest duels the Redmen played all season and even the Wesleyan boys admitted that Carthage was the toughest team they had run up against all season. Special merit must be given to the Redmen in this game in that seven first-stringens were benched because of injuries. 1N he knows what the outcome might have been had all the starters been in the fray. The iVesleyan battle also marked the com- ing-up point for the Redmen, for they copped their next two games with relatively easily won Vieteries. BOWL OVER AUGIE The first of the last two seasonal wins was a 6-0 victory over the Augustana Vikings, No- vember 5 at Carthage. The game marked the first time Augustana had been defeated by Car- thage in 61 years of intercollegiate competition. The lone Carthage marker was scored as they recovered a Viking fumble early in the first quarter. Both teams threatened throughout the game, but each was held scoreless. The Augie win elimaxed the Redmen sea- 84 CRIMSON RAMBLER .... son and placed them in line shape to meet Quincy Llellege for the last duel of the season. The victory over the Vikings also pulled Augustana off their high perch in the College Conference of Illinois and gave them a. final conference standing in the fifth slot with Car- thage. BOYS SHOW FINE FORM The Carthage line showed up exceptionally in the fray. The fine blocking and tackling of such men as Jim Lesher, Sherm Stevenson, Keith Scott, Tom Good, John Zehfus, Bob Gareea and a host of others should be especially noted. Nor are the backs to be forgotten. High- lighting the tilt were two punts sent 0H by Aram Gurunian, both for over 70 yards. Dick Zima, Tom Green, Irwin Cox, Bob Hardy and Bill Bradley were all showing line form. BEAT QUINCY IN LAST FRAY In fine shape, the Redmen met Quincy Col- lege under the ares at the college field in their last game of the season. Carthage scored early in the first quarter when Guard Jim Lesher recovered a Hawks fumble behind Quineyis own goal, giving the Redmen a 6-0 lead. The Redmen scored again in the second and third quarters, pushing gaping holes through a strong Quincy line. The Hawks scored their lone tally in the last 40 seconds of play when Jim Belz inter- cepted a Carthage pass, rated 65 yards, later- elled t0 Quincyis John Smith on the 15, who went over for the goal. Most football fans agreed that this was the best game the Redmen played all season. Quin- ey College copped the Pioneer conference crown and came out all season with a twe-game loss. The victory was a follow-up of a 7-6 lose the Redmen handed Quincy in the 194-7 season. Although the 1948 season could have been better, it may be considered far above average. And Carthage College may look forward to a better season in 1949. Nineteen returning letter- men will bolster the grid eleven next fall to lead the Redmen to a possible conference victory. gulf listtaz Winrzgzi. ..

And when it rains, Carthage College always seems to have its homecoming. 'I'here was a time, according to some alum- ni. when Carthage W215 favored with beautiful autumn clays for humer-nming. But those days seem to have gone forever. A tradition of depressing weather has estab- lished itself at Carthage during the homecom- ing festivities, and has seemed to prevail for the past five years or mt SOME WISE 1'0 RAIN Nor was this year an exception. Many wise fraternities and clubs, with years of experi- ence behind them, made their Heats: of materials and lettering that would not run during the rain. The homecoming parade, one of the largest and hnest that Carthage has seen, started from Memorial gateway at 2:30 p. In. October 15. F ouz'tcen floats, and open convertibles carry- ing the homecoming queen candidates, were led by the 35-piete college band over the line of march to and around the town square and back to the college. The band was complimented by many spec- tators on its excellent performance in the pa- rade and also at the football game that night during halftime. BAND LED 1w Fan: The. band was led by four drum majorettes, all under the direction of Prof. James j. Nchez. The twirlers were Lorraine Hull, Norma Vcrhil, Hazel Webb and Beverly Sponem. The Square and adjoining streets were lined with many spectators. The floats were judged by a committee composed of Chaplain Harold E. Bernhard, Dr. Juanita Jones. Dr. Stanley W. Oexcman, Prof. John Muschick and Prof. Irene Licbig. Cash prizes were awarded during the halftime of the night iootball game. WRITERS WIN- FIRST rl'he W'riters club Was awarded hrst prize of $10; Theta Llhi Delta, second, $7.50; and WAA. third, $5. Between 1500 and 2000 excited homecom- ing fans watched the fighting Redmen give the Big Blue 01 James Millikin University a rough time even though the Final score was a heart- breaking 13-14 with Carthage on the bottom. During halftime the new athletic. field lights were dedicated with Chaplain Bernhard read- ing the dedication ceremony. Remarks were made by President Erland Nelson and Coach Lewis M. Omer. chairman of the held light campaign fund. Approximately 200 couples danced to music by Sherman Hayes and his orchestra from 9:30 p. m. until 12:30 a. m. in the gaily decorated field house following the game. HANS 1m 13 QUEEN At 11:30 p. m. Miss Jacquie Hansen was disclosed as the choice of the campus for home- coming queen in an impressive coronation cere- mony presided over by Chaplain Bernhard. The queen was Crowned with a wreath of red and white roses and presented with a large. bouquet of red roses. After the coronation. the homecoming foot- ball was rattled off. The opening day of homecoming festivities was Friday. October 15. ARBAL'tm GIVES OiJENINn ADDRESS The Rev. Dr. George B.

Dr. ArlJaugh also welcomed the COIH'OCEI- tion to his homecoming, claiming that Carth- age was more his home than many of the alum- ni in the audience. Dr. Arhaugh amused the students by Item- pziring them with mulcs- - Iittle pride in aIICCSe try- and little thought to posterity? The convocation was followed by the flag raising ceremony held on the campus lawn. As the class flags were raised the respective classes gave their yells. After the freshmen yell the shout Went up, Button Freshmen! The freshmen were re- luctant to do so and a controversial discussion followed, finally ending on the note that the freshmen were now full-Iledged students and may look forward to their revenge next fall. HARRIERS BEAT MONMOL'TH The Carthage College intercollegiate cross country team edged out Monmouth by a score of 27-28 Friday afternoon in a close race over the scenic Carthage course. All the Carthage runners showed improvement over their pre- vious meet with Western. Kampus Kapcrs highlighted the evenings activities with a gala show. Close to 800 people attended the aHair put on by the men of the campus. The proceeds, 166 dollars, were turned over to William C. Krauss, business manager, to be used for the football light fund. Concluding the open dayis events were the victory rally and all-eollege bonhre behind the field house, followed by a snake dance which wended its way down the highway and through the square. Saturday mornings events began early for many students who assembled materials for floats. CRIMSON RA MBLE'R Alpha Psi Omega held an alumni breake fast at NIainwood with 19 present.

Sunday morning saw many alumni and friends return to worship once more in Old Trinity Lutheran church before returning home. The Rev. Walter E. Kaitsehuk, pastor of Peace Lutheran church, Steeleville. preached on comparing homecoming here with a heav- enly homecoming. To some, the 194-8 homecoming meant a time of fun and gaiety.

Ringmen In Short Season; Golden Gloves Marks Only Bouts For Redmen Seven Carthage College boxers fought their way into the finals in the District Golden Gloves in Quincy in January. Two won champion- ships for the college team. Chuck Huber, junior, runner-up in the welterweight open division, copped the Lock- hart Sportsmanship trophy. Eighteen boxers were entered in the tourna- ment. Of the 18, seven entered the fmals and eight won preliminary bouts to enter the semi- finals. In the novice, middleweight division, Wally Daniels, Sophomore, was pitted against Bob Zube, Carthage freshman. Daniels took the deeisicm over Zube as both boys fought hard to cop the title. John Zehfus, junior, grabbed a rough de- cision over John Idoll, Culver-Stoekton college, in the heavyweight novice division. The Erst round went all the way for Idoll, but Zehfus made a stunning comeback in two and three to bowl over his heavier opponent. In the lightweight novice division, Carth- age Freshman Dave E1115, dropped a close bout to Bob W'altz, Culver-Stockton. Chuck Huber dropped another close bout to Dick Christie, Quincy. Christie was holder of the 1947 Welterweight championship. In the heavyweight open division, Aram Gurunian, sophomore, met Peter Smart from Louisiana, M0. Gurunian tired in the second and third rounds as the fight turned into a slug- fest and Smart carried the decision. In the hnal bout, Carthage Sophomore Ra- mon Gonzales ran against Dick Fee, Western State College. Gonzales tired in the third round and Fee copped the decision. The Carthage boxers who took part in the Quincy tournament are part of the sehooPs intercollegiate boxing and wrestling program. The boxing team is coached by Student Coach Bill Bradley, junior.

Although the score didn'it show it, several of the contests were very evenly matched. Jim Lcsher and Ray Berndston were the onlyr winners in the meet. 'The other boys showed good form, however, and had there been other meets, would probably have copped several wins for the Red and White. Wrestling is a relatively new sport at Car- thage, rejuvenated only last year. Some of the lloldies'5 from last yearis squad arc Jim Barn- thouse, Phil Kirkman, Rudy Asmus and Don Schilson. Although these men only met one opponent they nevertheless came out for practice each afternoon. They worked out just as hard as any of the athletes in the other sports. The slim season proved to be a great mish fortune, but the experience gained in this yearis meet and practice will be used to mould a win- ning wrestling squad at Carthage College next year. 93 $uaucv5ati GLfCIUE, cgucmmfuf gem . . . Menas Intramurals Add Color And Fun To College Life; Stags Are Champs This year the Carthage College metfs Nev- t'rsweat intramural basketball league under the direction of Student Coach Ray Ennis, proved to be One of the most successful Carthage has; ever had. Fourteen teams originally entered the intra- mural program with the ever-winning Stags, under Coach Gene Kleckler, tripping the cham- pinnship. Runner-ups in the Contest were the Uhi-ROX under the guidance of Chuck Hermanck. A variety of names completed the roster of intramural teams with cthandles't ranging from Stumble Bums, CometsJ Rackets and Hidden Talent t0 IVIaulers, W'hiz Kids, Red Rumans and Old Stylets. Each team had its individ- ual manager or ttwitch to direct its play. Climaxing the intramural season was an all-star game played between number one play- ers out of the Nex-'ersweat lineup. Money raised from the all-star game was used by the U club to add to 21 scoreboard fund. Intramural games were played in the eve- nings and Saturdays under supervision of Ennis. Each team selected its own refereesJ scorekeep- cm and timers. But the basketball intramuralst although the main attraction in the league, are not the only sports rarricd on in the athletic program. In the fall, touch football is played. In the spring volfeyball and softball flll the bill. This well-rounded Set-up not only adds to the fun and bodybuilding 0f the college men, but it develops leadenship and mnpemtiun he- twccn the students. As both Coach Roscoe. 36011 and Coach Bill Strickland put it, Wt CtJlngC that does not have an intramural set-up in its athletic program is 30 years behind times? Although the Rcdmcn quintet didn't put out such an impressive record this year, they had an excuse, and a good one at that. First, they were mentored by a new coach. Its always hard for players to get uscd t0 :1 new man and a new man to get used to new players. Secondly, most of the Redmcn opponents this year were taller, more cxpcricnrcd squads from schools twice. the size of Carthage.

The 1948-49 varsity basketball squad I25M this one out, as they discarded those determined victory looks for smiles. The Redmen started the 194-8 season with a. bang by bowling over their first opponent, strong Quincy College, by a good score. Then things slackened a little and the wins came slower and fewer. But these boys never gave up. From the beginning of practice in November until the very last game, these men kept the field house hardeourts hot every afternoon. They Carried the tough hasketbali load throughout the 21- gamc season, with tilts in and out of the Little Nine Conference. Their seasonal record of 5-16 is not neces- sarily indicative of the type of ball these boys played. Their competition was tough and the men put up a tough battle in every game. The Redmen were a short team. They had a. fast offense with a system of plays that made them look good against the best of them. Misfortune hit the squad early in the sea- son through the less of scoring ace John Thiel. Thicl, who whipped up a scoring record of 33 points in the opening tilt, left the hardcourts for a season in professional baseball. A 19-day Christmas vacation interruption also put a damper on the winning ability of the quintet. But these boys stuck it out. Yes, even until their picture could be taken for the Rambler. - -.-..., Battfm Keep BuCESIE Beigadg Bustling . . . Short, F ast Redmen Hardeourters End 21-Game Card With Mediocre Record; 5 Wins Against 16 Losses Closing a 21-game schedule, the Carthage College Redmen hardcourters bowed to Illinois College 72-56 November 24 giving the Red and iNhite a two-win, eight-loss record in the Little Nine Conference and a seasonal round-up of Eve wins and 16 losses. Carthage copped the number eight slot in the conference, barely nosing out Lake Forest in the cellar position. SEVEN LETTERMEN RETURN The 1948-49 squad started practice Novem- ber 15 with a host of returning lettcrmen in practice clothes each afternoon. Returning lettermen were: Keith Scottt Ir- win Cox, Aram Gurunian, Tony Rumo, jatk Brellenthin, Jack Peterson and Jnhn Thiel. Heading the B squad returnees were Ted Stoekfisch, Jim Craig, Jay Baysinger, Earl Smiek and Wes Christian. After the hrst few tilts, Stoekftsch and Christian were moved up to the varsity and hnished the season by start- ing several games. After a starting lineup had been rounded out, Coach Strickland prepared his boys to meet Quincy College in the first duel December 4. GOP FIRST WIN Using a fast break led by hoopmen John Thiel and Jack Peterson, the Redmen copped an easy victory, 72-54. Thiel poured in 33 points to tie his old field house record, while Peterson followed with 16. The second tilt found the Crimson boys in Iowa territory. Journeying to Mt. Pleasant, they dropped a tough 51-63 less to Iowa Wes- leyan. Thc Redmen retaliated latter in the seal- srm by dropping the W'esleyanites 41-40 at Carthage February 15. Hitting tougher opponents, the bucket bri- gade passed up the next four tilts. One, a 52- 77 loss to Illinois Wesleyan, was the first ten' ference defeat of the season. GILT FIRST EECI 1WDr The basketeers followed up January 14, however, by pushing over Lake Forest Clt'illege in the field house 62-44- for their flfbl. Little Nine vietory. 'Iihe duel marked the hrst recup- eration period following the 19-day Christmas intervention. But a seven-game losing streak was to follow that proved to be the lowest ebb in the hard- euurt season. Three of the seven encounters were ennfer- enee games. A 56-65 loss to Wheaten, a. 46-80 loss: to lVIillikin, coupled with a Close 51-55 drop to Augustzma placed Carthage in a precarious position in the College Conference of Illinois standings. GET SECOND CONFERENCE WIN The Redmen pulled out of the cold Spell by downing the Elmhurst Pirates in the Held house February 12, 50-39. This game chalked up the second and last conference win. The Elmhurst victory was followed up with the Win over Iowa Wlesleyan. The l-Vesleyan win also indicated the last seasonal victory for the Red and White. Still in a seasonal downgrade. the last four losses were to conference foes. In a Chicago area trip, they dropped a 37- 63 tilt to strong North Central and a 49-56 loss to Elmhurst giving the Pirates the revenge they desired. L05 F. HEART-HREA KER In what proved to be the most exciting game of the season, Coach Strickland's quintet dropped a heartbreaking 5758 decision to the Augustana Vikings in the next-tn-Iast engage- ment. Carthage led all the way until the final minutes when Augie tied the tilt and walked off the floor with a one-point margin. The Illinois College tussle put the 30 mark on the hoop activities for the year and marked up another yearis experience under the belts of the Carthage quintet. Naturally enough, the Redmen spent most of the season looking up at their opponents. The string bean season really hit hard for the Redmen this year. But their efforts were not in vain, and Carthage may 1001-: forward to a winning outfit next year. Back: Coach Roscoe Scott, Tom Singleton, Bob Pedis, Bill Dye, Jay Baysingcr, Frank Meyer, manager.

The t'BAh squad came out every night along with the varsity for practice. They scrimmaged the first stringers and gained much valuable experience whirh will be used in later years. 100 Several of the t'B'w boys moved up to the varsity even before the year was over. The experience they gained under Coach Roscoe Scott developed them into varsity material. The KtBEH played other college second teams whenever they had a chance. When college games couldntt be scheduled, they battled var- ious independent teams in the area. Many exciting duels were fought by the ttBh team. Each itcurtain raiser't before the main event proved to be a crowd plczuser. .2111 maxgimmwahm Back: Doc Linson, Carmen Grewc, Camilla Brcms, Winnie Johnson, Eleanor johnson; Don Fogt. Wat5046...
