Many have left as graduates and many have returned as alumni. They come in as students, individual in character, thought, and emotion. They grad- uate as. individuals still, but they have something more than they had when they First walked under the ever- greens. Without the students, without the buildings, with out the faculty, without the curriculum, Carthage could not he; as single units none of these would survive. There is then something more that makes this campus alive, that adds to each personts character, thought, and emotions --the spirit of Carthage College. It is to this spirit, for many years embodied in the Redmen, that we dedicate this book. It is the courage, the loyalty, the idealism, the devotion to service that made the Carthage of yesterday, that is the Carthage of today, that will he the Carthage of tomorrow.

Victory is ours, Success the key For wire the class of ,53. Carthage F orever The purpose of a yearbook is to chronicle the main events on campus during the year. The Crimson Rambler staiT has attempted to do just this. How- ever, there are certain intangibles in the life of Carthage College that cannot be captured by the camera or the typewriter. These intangibles are highly personal. For each individual they have a different, special, intimate meaning. Probably they are more important than any other aspects of college life. Their importance may be overlooked because they are, for the most part, remote. Perhaps not until considerable time has elapsed to give us proper perspective will we recognize their signihcanee for they are in the realm of the spirit. This spirit dwells as a hidden part in every student, whether he be Sophomore, Senior, Junior, or Fresh- man. The priceless quality of the spirit is its power to deepen and enrich our lives. The intangibles of college life are a positive demonstration of this power. They are the elements that give. to a college a distinctive atmosphere and to the students a no- bility of presence and purpose. Reflect for a moment upon the past year and its intangibles and what they have meant to you: The friendship of fellow studentse The inspiration of the faculty; The urge for realization of all your talents and powers e The ambition to dedicate yourself to worthy ends e The aspirations that were. raised up in your heart and minde The abilities acquired that will enable you to reason and discuss intelligentlye The maturity and spiritual growth which Will guide and protect you in the future; These are several of the intangibles which have been so much a part of your last. year. There are many more.l They are the intangibles which have united you in the spirit, which have enabled you to work and learn together, and which will make Carthage College forever a part of you and you a part of it.

Besides regular classes there are two organizations that bring these girls together. The Home Euanomics Club is made LIP of girls who have taken at least om: course in Home Economics. A variety of activitiES is planned which inclulies teas, suppers. and the sponsoring oi the annual Christmas dance. All those who are majoring or min- oring and have. a B average in Home Economics are eligible for the haiiorary fraternity, Kappa Omicron Phi. These 0r- gauizations both develop in women, high ideals of living, a sincere apprecialion of the home, and a broader sociai, and high- er intellectual and cultural view. 2-5... 4.3 In the upper photo Harryr Robertson.

With the goal the best ever the staff members of the Crimson Rambler started earnestly to make this pubiication a hook that would record by camera and typewriter many memories for those years ahead, away from Carthage College. One of the new policies that was tried this year, in the efforts to do this, was to have all of the staff members heip with whatever work there was to be done. This not only provided a wider field of ex- perience and outlook but also better distributed the work that had to be done. It is our hope that herein we have included those incidents and facts of the past year that will best help you ttmirror these memories in future years. .K - .5 if F- .5: G .J., 7: K E??- KR 4L9:V A. new type of Page plan is-heing workgd out by Shirlmr Wagner, The. advertising section gets the. careful consideration of Bill tinffman, Girls Sports Editor, Paul Lindblom, Assistant Boys?

Redmen Win 5, Lose 2, In 952; Fourteen Lettermen Aid Campaign t Elmhurst .33 Quincy E The 952 Carthage college football campaign marked the first winning season for the Fighting Hedmen in several years. Art Keller, taking over his duties as new head coach, had a nucleus of 14 returning lettermen plus a good crop of fresh- men with which to work. With the able assistance of line- coach iiShip Farroh he molded together a powerhouse, which in its first flVf! games rolled over such Iormidable foes as Culver-Stockton and Augustana. In the homecoming game the Redmen howled over the rough Navy Pier Illini of Chicago for their fifth straight conquest, which left them in the select list of eighteen undefeated teams in the nation. In the. final two games of thv St'ason the Redmen lKwith four key men on the injured lisU met the powerful Elmhursl Bluejays and the fighting Quincy college Hawks in the wildest and most exciting games of the season. Losing the. heartbreaking Quim-y game. by om: point, and the Elmhurst game, the team still ended the season wilh an enviable record of five wins and two, losses. The Redmen lose only lhrvc men by graduation, Harry Bradley, Merlin Bcrges, and Tom Williams. If mililary service does not gather too many umlcrclassmen, Coach Keller should have another powerhouse in next yearis edition of. the fighting Redmen. Our Captains , Co-Captains 0f the Carthage Redmen this season were tackle Myron Mike, Pihl and halfback Dick Biery. Mike, from Harvard, 11L, is a three year football letterman. Dick Biery, who lives in Carthage, has lettered for three years in football and one in has- ketball. Both boys are juniors and will be counted on heavily in coach Art Kellefs plans for the 54 season.

Throughout the season a lack of depth was. apparent, and although the team lost more games than it won, several of the losses came in the last minutes when costly fouls sent firstAline players to the bench. Since there are only two seniors cm the team coach Keller will have a veteran squad back next year.

Ogren and Bradly coach Boxing Squad; Participate in Quincy Golden Gloves During the past few years Carthage college has been in the habit of putting forth very capable bore ing teams, and this year was no exception. The team this year was completely student coached and trained under the supervision of $iShip Farrah. In charge of the team were co-toaches Harry Bradley and Curt Ogren, and trainer Elmer Williams. Both Bradley and Ogren were former Golden Gloves Champions. As in previous years the team represented the college in the annual Golden Gloves tournament held each year in Quincy, 111. However, this year the team was unable to Schedule amr warm-up bouts prior to the tournament to give the boys, most of whom had no previous experience in the ring. some much needed practice. Although they went into the matches cold the team acquitted itseif very well, with two boys walking off with second place trophies. The trophy winners were Duane Tuttle in the 175 lb. open clams and Bob Maynard in the 175 lb. novice division. Tim 01in 13: Base Elmer Wiilliams Pitcher 2nd Base ' . ' 1:4 53-3 , . .

As usual bad weather hampered the team quitv a bit and only a limited amount of practice was had on tht- diamond before the season began. In spite of this handicap prospects for a winning season seemed quite good with 11 returning lettermen as a nuclvus for the ball club. The pitching corps appeared to be quite strong with Vt-terans Herb Konigsmarkg Tom Langan, Elmer Williams, and newcomer Bill Wink- ing leading the staff. In the infield four seniors seemed to be the strongest candidates for each position, although they were receiving plenty of competition from some of the underclassmen. At first base big Tim Olin was in charge, while at the keystone sack ttCurlyet Meyer seemed to have the inside track on a starting assignment. At short and third Dale Schreurs and Harry ttBooneh Bradley looked like strong candidates for the two positions, although sophomore Don Babbitt also had a good chance to see a lot of action. In the outfield juniors Bob Hardy and Jim Martin and freshman Bill Trees won starting berths, while the catching was handled by junior Don Henkcl and senior Merlin Barges. Back Row: Manager.

Freshmen Bolster Track Team; Farrohas Squad Well Balanced Prospects for a good season in. track seemed exceptionally bright this year as coach ttShip Farrah molded his crew of three lettermen and some dozen or more new prospects together for the 53 season. With an ambitious scheduie of eight meets, including the well-known Vik- ing Relays, the team put in long hours of practice in anticipation of a successful scascm. Some of the men expected to carry the Red and White on to vic- tory this Spring were lettermen Al Kenniebrew in the dashes and high jump, John Roth in the mile and two mile, and Jim Scott in the high jump and high hurdles. In the weights were Paul Doering, Ernie Brink, and Bob Versen. Dick Marconi and Gerry Eisele were ex- pected to bring home some points in the low and high hurdles while great things were expected from Burt Root, Wisconsin state high school mile champion, in the 4-10 and half-mile.

Chosen as captain of the 53 edition of the Redman tennis team was Duane Tuttle of Beloit, Wisconsin. A junior and two year letterman in the sport, Duane plays the number one position on the squad. Boyer Coaches Tennis; Three Lettermen Return With the first three men of last yearhs successful tennis squad returning for another year of action, it looked as though the racquet men could look for- ward to another banner year. About a dozen men vied for positions on the team including fettermen Duane Tuttle, Phil Olson, and Bob Sorensen. The team was under the direction of Dr. Merle Boyer, a three year Ietterman in tennis in his college days at Gettysburg college. This year the team played the longest schedule in its history, and probably came up against the tough- est opposition of any of the athletic teams at Car- thage. Included in its schedule Were such schools as Washington U. of St. Louis, Southern Illinois U., Illinois Normal, Western, and Augustana. Neversweats Have Banner Year As in previous years, intramural sports were an integral parl of the campus activities this year. In the First weeks of school seven much- foothall learns were formed and a full schedule of games was played, The Eaglcbcaks, composed of Lloyd Meyer, Duane Tultle, Don Bab- bitt, Dale SChl'CLlfb, Jim Martin, Phil Olsen, Dick Jensen, Herb Konigsmark, and Glen Delaney, went through the season undefcatcd to win the league crown and also the annual all-star game, 19-7. Following this the intramural Basketball League took over thc spotlight and tha- non-varsily men responded with great enthusiasm, as a record number of teams, 16 in all, were formed. During the long season, which extended from early November to the last week in March, there. was much entertainment provided for both players and Spcctators. The season ended with a three way tie for first place between the Olympians, Potbcllics, and Sooners. The Sooners. com- posed of Bill Slurms, Dale Schreurs, Phil Olsen, Ken Gorsky, Paul Lindblom, Bob Small, Paul Skogstrom, Ken Hophalle, and Gil Cul- hranson, won the playoff. An honorary all-star team was chosen with Bill Winking, Bob Steinhrink, Dale Schrcurs, Don Babbitt, and Bob Tcws being honored. Dale Schreurs was also chosen most valuable player in the league. When spring rolled around a six team softball league was formed to round out a full year of intramural activity. Cart; of the Gazellcs gees up for a shot against the Potbellies.

Every year more young people go forth from our Alma Maten to dedi- cate their lives in service for others, only to return ever and again to the scenes of their school days. Those who yet remain have much to look forward to; those who have gone forth still have much to do. Though the Redman is but a symbol, it is also an actuality to be found in the lives of those who have known it, lived with it, and been sent forth by it. Thus, you and I are that Redman, the Redman who has lived for many years and who must live for many more.
