McCHESNEY His inspired teaching, his loyal devotion, his friendly counsel and guidance have endeared'him to students for almost half a century. Under his leadership Cedarville College has sent young men and women into all walks of life with a sense of duty to their fellow-men. Through his classes he helps students find their great heritage of knowledge; through sermons and speeches he inspires multitudes and through public service he ardently upholds the ideals of temperance and education. Dr. McChesney had given his life to Cedarville College. He has worked unfalter- ingly for the success and growth of this institution, and it is our hope that his dreams for Cedarville will soon be realized.

I smile when I remember our first Freshman party at Anderson s. I laugh outright when I remember how Mrs. Anderson turned the hose on the upper classmen. In my train of thought come memories of coasting parties, hay rides. Bible Reading contests, pep meetings, snake dances, and pajama parades. And our Junior Class play! I don't suppose that I shall ever forget it. Roy was so runny, and Justin—! Well, here we are Seniors ready to start out on our own. The good times we had at Cedarville will become a part of our day dreams. COLLEGE BULLETIN 1950 We arc very glad to hear that Mr. Harry Sinks has been found after having been captured by bandits in Central China some months ago. He is returning to Mrs. Sinks and children in Shanghai. Coach Roy Linton, the popular baritone, recently led his high school team to the state tournament where they were ignominiously defeated by a score of 50-6. Congratulations to the former Betty Shaw, class of '38. who is announcing the birth of twin sons. Uz and Buz. Dr. Harold Shaw has recently published his thesis which was an exhaustive study on Why Women Close Their Eyes When Kissed.' Mr. Philip Shupp. the eminent physician, was called last week to the home of Miss Suzie Barnes to perform an autopsy on Poo-Poo,'' her favorite lap dog. In the current issue of Life' we see the smiling countenance of our own Rachel Creswell in an advertisement for Pebeco. Her smile has become nationally known. There was recently a riot at the Pa'ace Theater where the popular matinee idol. James Anderson, was featured in his second starring vehicle, My Sin. Mr. Howard Swaim has fulfilled the dream of half a century of Cedarville College and his own heart, when he endowed Cedarville College with a $50,000 Dormitory. The Castle Gardens, just out of Cincinnati, have signed a long term contract starring 'Mr. Kenneth Sanderson and his Bevy of Beefy Brunettes. They have originated a new dance which is sweeping the country. We recently received a letter from Herbert Cummings. Reno. Nevada, where it is reported he is recovering from a weakened condition of the heart. This is Mr. Cum- mings' second trip to Reno. It's good to hear that Martha Bryant is recovering in the hospital, where she is I being treated for a broken toe. The accident occurred when Miss Bryant stubbed her toe on one of the pedals of the organ at The Little Church Around the Corner.' Mr. Wilmott Fischer has just completed a successful world tour with his famous Cathedral Choir Boys. They have appeared before the crowned heads of Europe. J Miss Mildred McKibben was recently elected Secretary of the National W. C. T. U. Her activity in this work dated from Cedarville College days. Mr. Justin Hartman, the eminent professor of Sociology at the J. James Hartman School for Girls, has been conducting an investigation of the Night Clubs in Cincin- nati. This is an interest that has long been dear to his heart. Mrs. Mary Johnston Rosenstein has returned to the stage after a year’s leave of : absence. She will be featured in her husband's production, Dimpled Darling. Mr. John Gillespie. President of the International Women's Garment Union, has been in Ladies' Underwear the last few months organizing that industry. THE 193 8 CEDRUS Faye I'utHty-I our Howard Swaim— Pa.

JUNIOR CLASS In September. 1935. sixty-five Freshmen (the largest class in the history of the college] entered the side door of Cedarville College — by request of the upper-classmen — to start on the long trail toward a diploma. A;ter almost a week of initiation, we organized and set- tled down to business. We tried to have some feeds but the upper classmen were so interested in them that they nearly always arrived before the freshmen did. We were represented on the basketball sauad by five men — Roy Linton and Blutcher Gibson playing on the first team. Our c ass team won the intra-mural tournament. This helped to make up for our getting dipped in Willow Bend during Freshman Week. Two of our girls. Jacobs and Seamon, were cheerleaders; we also had representa- tives in debate and basketball. Our Sophomore year was a busy one for about fifty of our members, for they were going through the ordeal of practice teach- ing. In the spare time we had we still entered all kinds of extra- curricular activities. At the end of basketball season we took time out to win the class tournament again, with cheerleaders Sisson and Tomlinson to help us yell. Justin Hartman and Roy Linton left us to become Juniors, and at commencement time all the girls except two and several boys left us. Almost all of these people were successful in obtaining teaching positions and we hear that all of them arc doing very good work. As a result of that loss we started our Junior year with only sixteen members. John Fox was elected president of the class; Cecil Thomas, vice-president; Jane Frame, secretary: Bennett McNeal, treasurer. Bennett has had a hard year this year in the candy busi- ness. and we appreciate his efforts. Again we are represented in athletics and other extra-curricular activities, and for the third year we have provided a cheerleader (Jane Frame) bringing our total to five. Since we did not give a class play this year, the big event of our year was the Junior-Senior Banquet held at the Dayton Y. M. C. A. And now we are looking forward to the last lap of our journey, and we arc hoping that next year will bring us safely to our destina- tion.

THE 1938 CEDRUS Page Txeenty-Sci cn John Peterson Genevieve Jesson Catherine Harbaugh Monroe Pyles SOPHOMORE CLASS In the fail of 1936, v e began our short but extremely eventful college careers. Our first move v as to select Eldon Gillespie as our president and in this capacity he effectively guided our activities throughout the term. We patiently endured the humiliating experiences of Freshman Week. The most easily recalled catastrophe of this ordeal was suf- fered at Willow Bend, when our boys only after a titanic struggle. were pulled headlong into its icy waters. After this annual affair we seemed to get along much better with the upper classmen and by the end of the term had firmly established ourselves as worthy representatives of this fine old school. This year the majority of our 1936-37 group has returned. This time we chose suave John Peterson as our chairman and he has ably conducted our progress throughout the majority of another college year. We are particularly proud of our representatives in athletics. In basketball we were fortunate in placing a man on the varsity quintet. Several other Sophomores participated in this sport. With spring baseball swinging into its first practice sessions, the Sophomores find themselves well represented by many eager appli- cants for varsity berths. Several of these men stand excellent chances for regular positions. V e have also received favorable recognition in the fields of scholarly endeavor and included within our group arc several who rank high in music, dramatics and other worthwhile activities. We have been happy in pursuing our studies in the delightful atmosphere provided by the college and surrounding community, and by the sincere and altogether wholesome environment created by our beloved faculty. Therefore, it is our desire that during our short stay at Cedarville our presence here will add to. rather than detract from this atmosphere, and that we as a c!ass may profit accordingly.

As if these Freshmen were not sufficiently afflicted with homesickness and embarossment. the Sophomores with the aid of the Juniors and Seniors, heaped torment upon affliction. There were white-faced girls seen on the campus in pigtails and boots, car- rying pillow slips. There were boys with extra rosy cheeks and red lips, with hairbows and jewelry, carrying waste paper baskets. There were also a lot of upper classmen with the tummy” ache because they had eaten too many suckers. There were rumors of long rides and walks in the darkness along strange roads. And finally there was a general ducking at Willow Bend; but the Freshmen persevered They knew what they were after and they knew they could get it at Cedarville College as soon as the upper classmen forgot their jealousy. One day during the first few weeks of school, they met in Dr. McChesncy’s room to organize. James Anderson, president of the student body undertook the task of presiding over that quiet group. Getting nominations was like pulling teeth for nobody seemed to know anybody. A:ter much patience was displayed by Mr. Ander- son. and a little loosening up on the part of the freshmen, the following officers were elected: Richard McKnight. president: Louise Jacobs, vice-president: Elizabeth Anderson, secretary: Justin Northrup, treasurer; Mary Jean Townsley. news reporter; and Doris Ramsey, student council representative.

Everett Keener attended Cedarville College only the first semester, working on his A. B. degree. Mr. Keener is a graduate of the Cumberland University Law School at Lebanon, Tennessee. He is expecting to return to Cedarville College in the future to complete his course. The other special students, Mr. Frank Wiley. Mr. John Taylor, and Mr. Robert McKibben are enrolled in the Cedarville Seminary. THE SEMINARY Under the able instruction of Dr. W. R. McChesney and Dr. F. A. Jurkat, the three students of the Cedarville Seminary are nearing the close of the first year of their work. The three men arc Mr. John Taylor, who comes to us from India, where he lived for the first sixteen years of his life with his parents. Mr. and Mrs. John C. Taylor, mis- sionaries of the Reformed Presbyterian Church at Boorkee. India. Coming to America he finished the last two years of his high school course at Stafford. Kansas.

Durins the past year those who arc in the education department have been endeavoring to reach the goal of efficient teaching. Good leaching is by no means an easy accomplishment as many have found out. but the high aim of efficient teaching is attained only by much perseverance, work, and who'c-hcartcd interest. It was with fear and trembling that many took over the actual duties as teachers but this feeling soon disappeared as they become accustomed to the situation and grasped the true spirit of their work. The practice teachers sincerely feel that they owe much to their instructors and critic teachers for their guidance and helpful criticism, which aided them to correct many of their mistakes as beginners. Mr. Hostetler, as head of the education department, has by his untiring efforts, maintained the high and worthy standards of the teaching profession.

Under the efficient leadership of James Anderson, this year's annual has gradually taken form. To produce an annual requires long hours of work for those involved, yet we feel the experience gained has repaid the effort. Each member of the staff has been more than willing to do his share of the work. Martha Bryant, as business manager, has handled the finances in an ad- mirable manner. Mary Johnston, the organization editor, has spent many long hours in getting this book in its present form. Justin Hartman, with his literary ability, has managed the features and other write-ups. Harold Shaw, our snapshot editor, has worked up a lot of interest in snapshots, the results of which one can see in our book. Clyde Walker, our artist, deserves special recognition for his work in helping to carry out the scheme of this book. Our hearty thanks go to Mr. Gibson, our faculty advisor, the business men whose ads are featured, and to all the students and friends whose hearty co- operation has made this publication possible.

His ceaseless effort was the chief reason the Whispering Cedars reached its height of popularity. Every Friday at noon there was a mad rush of the students to get their weekly issue of the college paper. We were always certain we would see such names as Harofd Shaw, Eugene Kavanaugh. and Ted James, on the scandal page because of their various romantic escapades. The editorials were always timely, practical and interesting. Each week articles by the students were published on subjects that were of interest to all. Assisting the editor in assembling the paper were Roy Linton. Business Manager: Pauline Ferguson and Marie Collins, typists. The success of this year's paper has resulted from the cooperation of members of the student body with the staff in helping to make each issue interesting and helpful. Pd fe Thirty,'-night DEBATE The debate teams of Cedarville College have had a very successful season this year. The affirmative team consisted or Ray Sisson. Cecil Thomas and Harold Shaw. The negative team was composed of James Anderson and Justin Hartman. The coach of the debate squad of Cedarville College was Mrs. Marguerite C. Ault, who deserves much credit for her persistence and patience in molding a forensic team. The first debate was with Rio Grande College, the teams splitting the decision. Dr. Breese of Wittenberg College, head of the Department of Speech, judged the debates. Later in the season both teams met Wilberforce University in a non decision debate. Then the teams went to Cincinnati where the negative team debated the Cincinnati Bible Seminary. The next stop was at Dayton University at Dayton. The negative team won by a decision of the Dayton U. Public Speaking classes. The affirmative debate was non-decision. The final stop was at Manchester, Indiana, where the debate tournament was held. Cedarville had to go to Huntington because of crowded condi- tions at Manchester College. The teams considered the trip a success, having won 4 out of 12 debates. The question for debate this year was Resolved that the National Labor Relations Board should be empowered to enforce arbitration of all industrial disputes.

C. A. has flourished unusually well this year. The membership has been large and the meetings well attended. The first event of the year was the Y. W. Tea held at the home of Jane Frame. Here all the girls had a chance to get better acquainted. In November the annual Committal Service, in memory of Frances McChcsncy, was held at the Presbyterian Church. At this service the girls were officially taken into the Y. W. This service is very beautiful and impressive. It was efficiently led by our President. Mary Johnston. In December the Secret Pal party was held at the home of Mildred McKibben. The party was a success and every- one was pleased as well os surprised to find out who her Secret Pal was. Our Mad-Hatter party proved to be one of the hilari ous parties of the year. Everyone wore a mad-hot crea- tion and a prize was awarded the best hat. Gomes of all descriptions were played until everyone was out of breath. Some of the students modelled their clothes for the style show which was a noted success. To climax the evening we girls tried to give the Mock Wedding. Due to the kid- napping of the bride (Mary Johnston), the groom (Martha Bryant) was left alone and the preacher (Betty Shaw) was left without a fee. The last event of the year was the Mother-Daughter Ban- quet. The daughters prepared a delicious banauet for their mothers. Everyone enjoyed meeting the mothers and all had a grand time.

With o truck packed with pleasure seekers we drove from Xenia to Yellow Springs, tnen on to Springfield where Benny McNeal (trying to drive with one hand—so they say) nearly landed us all in the police station. Some weeks later Benny received an itemized bill of $1 12.50 for lamp post fixtures. This year we have tried to create more interest in the meetings by presenting a series o: one act plays, among which were: The Wedding Present, The Florist Shop, The Tale of a Shirt, Girls Will Be Girls, Lovely Lady, the court scene from The Merchant of Venice, and You Can Never Tell What a Woman Will Do. These ploys were directed and acted by members of the club under the supervision of Miss Basorc and Miss Santmycr. The Club has also staged some three act plays sponsored by various organizations. The climax of tne Dramatic Club's efforts was The Late Christopher Bean, a popular Broadway hit and screen play. DRAMATIC CLUB OFFICERS Fred Lott, Roy Linton. Mary Jeon Townsley Ruth Bcohcr.

THE MIXED CHORUS The latest $103103 orsanization 00 the campus is the Collese Mixed Chorus, composed of thirty-six members, with their accompaoists. Martha Bryaot at the orsan and Rachel Harrimao at the piaoo. They save two im- portaot concerts durin3 the year—at Christmas time, The Holy City by Gaul, and on Easter nisht, The Crucifixion by Stainer. At other times durios the year they took trips and broadcast over WHIO. Dayton, on April !Oth. They 3ave both relisious and secular pro3ram$. sin3in3 in choir robes and main- tain a disnified appearance, as well as a hi3h standard and caliber of sinsins. They presented the special music at all collese convocations and at the Men's Bible Readins Contest, as well as at the special church meetin3$ in March. THE 19 3 8 CEDRUS Pant Party-!'our Everywhere they were hailed with warm praise and enthusiasm. GIRLS' GLEE CLUB The sixteen members of the Girls' Glee Club worked incessantly during the year, not only in learning music and in giving concerts, but also in selling eats at the basketball games to pay for their uniforms, blue and gold sweaters worn with blue skirts. They rendered the special music at the Girls' Bible Reading Contest March ?7ih. and presented spring secular programs at the end of the year. Their Christmas Carol Concert and Bazaar, interrupted by icy weather, was given in chapel before the who'e student body. The skating party on April 12th, sponsored for the whole school, with the High School Seniors as guests, climaxed a scries o: busy activities which required the cooperation of every girl in the Glee Club.

Elisabeth Anderson, and Junia Crcswell. all Freshman girls. They sang at various func- tions on and off the campus, and wore their costume dresses in orange and blue for their performances. Being so well received their first year, they hope to continue their melody together as long as they are in College. The boys' quartette, the College Har- monizers. comprised of Ray Sisson. Don Foulks, Fred Lott, and John Peterson, which achieved unusual success last year, again held on to their fine reputation this year. They gave innumerable concerts, both sa- cred and secular, under the direction of Mildred Biclcett Creswell, Director of Music. The musical activities of 1937-38 brousht to the campus and to numer- ous outside engagements, programs which will long be remembered by all. More than half of the student body registered for musical courses, and the keen interest shown in every phase of its work, indicates the degree of interest with which Cedarville College students enter into a fully developed musical program. Besides the private lessons in organ, piano and voice, and theory lessons in hormony, solfeggio, history of music, orchestration and pedagogy, a number of extra-curricular activities were maintained, such as. the Mixed Chorus of thirty-six members, the Girls' Glee Club of sixteen members, the Melody Maids (freshman girls' quartet) and the Hormonizers (boys’ quartet). All of these organizations rehearsed regularly and learned a high standard of repertoire, giving progams at nearby churches, schools and club meetings. Recitals were given at various intervals during the year, both at the local churches and in the college chapel. This broad musical activity program offered every student ample opportunity to engage in that phase which in- terested him most. The whole work of the department is under the direction of Mildred Bickett Creswell, Director of Music. As a special activity in the Music Department during the second semester the organ students were organized into a class which studied the mechanical construction and registration of organ stops under Mrs. Creswell's direction. The class met once a v cek aside from their lessons, studying the organ and its possibilities and worked out charts of special registrations on the Presby- terian Church Organ. Recitals were given in which every member of the organ class participated. At the end of the course those who had com- pleted all requirements were prepared to teach the organ and to play it in a superior manner. THE MUSIC DEPARTMENT Mary Margaret McMillan. Dorothy Kcnnon.

The team has presented more than twelve programs in Xenia. Jamestown. Cedarville. Bowersvilie. Plattsburo, South Vienna. Catawba, and other rural churches. Every member of the team has participated in one or more of these worship services either as a speaker, musician, or devotional leader; and each one has enjoyed this experience of presenting Christianity to others. The team has not only had an enjoyable time in presenting these programs; but was royally entertained by the ladies of the Methodist Church at Lytle and in the home of the Rev. Mr. and Mrs. Ross McNeal of Plattsburg. Membership in the Gospel Team has afforded a real opportunity for students to popularize the Christian principles of Cedarville College and to present to some churches a few of the ideals of youth. THE 1938 CEDRUS Page Forty-Hiyht DELTA KAPPA SIGMA The Delta Kappa Sigma Fraternity has been hampered very much this year by the lack of a house. We were forced to move out of our rooms in the bank building when it changed hands. Our activities of the year con- sisted of an all school party, tag day. and several pep meetings.” The fra- ternity did much to keep the good old college spirit alive. The officers were Roy Linton, President; Herbert Cummings, Vice-Presi- dent: Bennett McNeal, Secretary-Treasurer; and Noah Sharpe. Sergeant-at- Arms. Later in the year John Peterson assumed the duties of the president. Fred Lott and Noah Sharpe were also elected as new officers. Although the fraternity has not been so active this year as we would have liked, we feel the year has been successful and worthwhile because of the everlasting friendships which we have formed.

ALPHA THETA TAU During the first semester this year, four new members were pledged to Alpha Theta Tau Sorority. Since some of them were practice-teaching, they did not ride the goat until their work was finished. At the ride, which was held at the home of Mrs. Kling. they received the ' good wishes'' of the other members. Dorothy Bennett was declared the windiest girl in the crowd, and she kept two girls busy for five minutes brushing off the flour. The pledges were required to furnish the refreshments, but the big mistake made by the rest of us was in promising to cat whatever was prepared for us. A menu of raw-oyster salad, salty milk, and graham crackers filled with a mixture of caramel and inner tube is not exactly our idea of an excellent meal, but we did our best. On February 17. a second group of girls ran the gauntlet for dear o'd Alpha Theta Tau. Amid the odors of special A O T perfume and burning hair, the girls did not appear to be very brave, but they stayed with it and came out victorious over the goat. Crazy hats, raw oysters, paddles, a walk through town, and pictures of the boy friends of the pledges were among the highlights of the evening. (Some of the fellows around here would not appre- ciate it if they could see the pictures presented with their names.) Forma initiation took place on May 17, and now the girls are real members of Alpha Theta Tau. Besides our initiations, we have had many other interesting meetings and parties—especially those when some of the group insisted on playing truth and consequences. To the members who will leave us at commencement time, we wish much success as they start to teach. We arc hoping to see our new members back next year ready to take up the job of keeping life in our sorority. I'atjc Fifty Under the supervision of Miss Basore and the leadership of Presidents Frances Kimble and Genevieve Jcsson. the sorority has flourished this year. There were only three active members left when classes started in the fall. The first thing that was done was to initiate the pledges left from last year. Extensive plans for the year were made early in the first semester at a dinner party given by Frances Kimble. During the Christmas vacation we wel- comed our alumni and initiated two pledges at a luncheon at the College Club. Pauline Ferguson entertained the sorority at a dinner to open the new semester. Seven Freshmen were pledged and for the first time pledge pins, in the form of silver keys, were presented. This last semester, instead of using one of the college rooms for our meetings, we secured the use of a room at Mrs. Morton’s. We have offered something new in the line of stationery to the students of the college. We have secured stationery with the college seal on it. With the help of Jessica Taylor, we have selected two sorority songs. We feel that the programs at our meetings, including book reviews, etiquette les- sons. and the display of musical talent, have proved very profitable as well ns interesting. The fun we've had together at pot-luck suppers, theater parties and such, have helped form lasting friendships which mean so much. The pledges were S'ven a good work-out at the all-college party we sponsored this spring. We are ending our school year with a party for the alumni. We look forward to a good time at our summer camping week at Indian Lake. So with hopes that our sorority will in the following years come to mean more and more to its members and will make itself felt on the campus, we close a year filled with happy memories. Center: G.

Of the seven games lost, three were lost in over- time tilts, one by a one point margin, one by two points, and the final Wilmington game by a four point margin. The 1937-38 quintet added two teams to its regular opponents of the preceding year—Wilber- force and Giffin College of Van Wert. In conference play Cedarville College tied for second place with Defiance, winning three and losing three league games. High scorer for the Yellow Jackets is Howard Swaim. who has played his fourth and last year for Cedarville College. Kenneth McNcal and Russel Roberts, junior and sophomore, were not far behind in the sharp shooting. In addition to Swaim the quintet will miss Roy Linton at guard who has ably captained the team through- out the season. Clyde Walker, a junior, played commendable basket- ball in the setups and promises to be a real asset to the '38-'39 quin- tet. In addition to Roberts.

Several regulars are back this year: so we ore looking for the Cedar- ville College baseball team to be near the top of the conference again. The team should be strengthened somewhat by some freshmen boys who appear to have what it takes to be a baseball player. The regulars who are back from last year are James Jackson, catcher; Melvin Thompson, pitcher; Clyde Walker, first baseman; Raymond Sisson, second baseman: John Gillespie, fielder; Elden Gillespie, third baseman; and Cecil Thomas, fielder. Miami University of Oxford will appear on the schedule again after several years' absence from C. C. athletic calendar, and the boys hope to raise their prestige by defeating the Redskins.'

WOMEN'S PHYSICAL EDUCATION The Women's Physical Education class of Ccdarvillc College has had a very successful year under the supervision of Miss King. After some very beneficial training they were taken to Cincinnati to participate in the play day exercises. The sports in which they were entered were basketball and volley ball. The girls came home with two victories. They played the University of Cincinnati in voliey ball and won by a score cf 22-21. They played the Uni- versity of Kentucky in basketball and won by a score cf 39-14. Orena Mar- shall. an outstanding member, was the high point player. Edgington and Henderson, our fast running forwards, aided Orena in making the high score. Anderson and Townslcy played a strong defensive game. Harrison and Clemans showed their ability in playing the position of guard. Our volley ball team consisted of our basketball team with the assistance of Grace Bickett and the coach, Anna King. We arc very pleased with the success of our team: as it ranked very high in the sports in which it participated at Cincinnati. We hope that in the coming years Ccdarville College will have such a fine group as they have had in the past year. Page Fifty-Eight MEN'S PHYSICAL EDUCATION Here is a brief account of what happened in the Boys' gym class this year. In the beginning of the year we played soft ball and some hard ball out on the campus. As the weather grew colder, we turned to that superdynamic sport called soccer, with a few football scrimmages mixed in. The month of November found us in the gym doing exercises: such as jumping, running, swinging on the parallel bars, and doing many other gym- nastics. After about three weeks of these exercises we took up volley ball. This proved to be fun for all of us. But soon volley ball gave way to King Basketball: and, while he reigned, we had fun and exercise both mental and physical, mixed well and served hot. We gave the varsity and the second teams something on which to work out— and we made them work! King Basketball abdicated in favor of good King Baseball. Many of the boys took up this game seriously, while others just stayed with soft ball. This we did all spring. It is our business to make strong bodies as well as strong minds, and we think each one of the boys will agree that he is harder now than he was when he started this course. lit row: Monroe Pyles.

Cedarville — Rah! Rah! Rah! Cedarville! Jane Frame and Mcricum Foulk were Cedarville’s lively cheerleaders for the 1937-38 basketball season. They were a large factor in the success o: our team with their peppy yells and enthusiastic leadership. The new bright uniforms of orange and blue added to their effectiveness. During the 1937-38 season Cedarville College was well represented with basketball officials who journeyed to High Schools in Greene and other surrounding counties to officiate several basketball games. Those that took part in these games were Roy Linton. Herbert Cummings. John Gillespie and James Jackson, who were members of the O. H. S. A. A.

COMMITTAL SERVICE The members of the Y. W. C. A. reconsecrated themselves in a lovely candle- light service at the Presbyterian Church, November 18th. The freshmen girls took the vow for the first time. The service was introduced by a fifteen-minute organ recital by Martha Bryant and impressive music furnished by tne girls' quartet. The girls, old members and new, lighted their candles from those of the cabinet and followed the president in a lovely recessional. CLASS TOURNAMENT The first game of the class tournament between the Sophomores and the Seniors was the highlight of the tournament. It seemed certain victory for the Sophs, who were leading one point with only ten seconds to go, when Kenny Sanderson looped in a one hand shot from the comer of the floor. In the second game of the tournament the Freshmen won easily by a score of 36 to 24. The finals proved to be a battle from the start: however, the Seniors suc- ceeded in nosing out the Freshmen 36 to 31. This was the second straight year these boys won the class tournament. A beautiful blue and gold cup was presented to the Senior team. METHODIST PARTY On September 28th, 1937. the Epworth League of the Methodist Church enter- tained the student body and faculty at the college gymnasium. The group entered wholeheartedly into a snake dance, the couples winding in and out among the secluded spots of Cedarville. Entertainment in the form of musical games was conducted by members of the Young People's Department of the Methodist Church, and the party was concluded with delicious refreshments served by the mothers of these young people. HALLOWE'EN PARTY Spooks and witches reigned at the college gymnasium on October 28th during the annual Hallowe en Festival. The guests entered the back door and wound their way through a long, dark passageway filled with air blasts, electric shocks, dead rats, and ghosts. Appropriate decorations of fodder, pumpkins, and autumn leaves filled the gymnasium. Everyone was requested to be masked as a hayseed. and the group presented a strange assortment of country parsons, constables, scarecrows, and just plain hicks. After a lively entertainment consisting of rustic contests, the Virginia Reel, and other games, delightful refreshments of apples, doughr ts. and cider were served. PRESBYTERIAN PARTY An Indoor Track Meet was held Thursday evening, September 9th. in the parlors of the First Presbyterian Church. On this occasion the faculty and students of the college were guests of the Christian Endeavorers. As they arrived, the students were divided into four groups representing Cedarville and three of its keenest rivals in collegiate circles. Strangely enough, running off the events of the meet revealed just who may be called sober-sides. ' best needle threaders. and string-chewers. Cedarville, of course, was victorious. Refreshments were served in the dining room. The evening was closed with a song and a welcome to the students by Rev. Adams and one of the Endeavorers. Y. M. AND Y. W. MIXER On the evening of September 21, the college was entertained at the gym by the Y. W. and Y. M. The guests were greeted by a committee who gave instructions to hunt names of those who were unknown. The names were used later for a game of bingo. Games of other types were enjoyed during the evening, including the Grand March and other musical games. The evening was climaxed by refreshments of pumpkin pie, cider, and doughnuts served in an elegant manner. Pa je Sixty'Six THE LATE CHRISTOPHER BEAN The Dramatic Club presented Sidney Howard's comedy, The Late Christopher Bean' on December 9, in the Cedarville Opera House. Miss Genevieve Jesson portrayed in a delightful manner the role of Abby—the Haggett's servant. The story concerns a group of pictures which the late Christopher Bean had painted and which no one had taken seriously with the exception of Abby. In the final act it is revealed that Abby is Mrs. Christopher Bean and the rightful owner of the now-valuable pictures. The other members of the cast did a fine piece of acting with their roles as follows: Dr. Haggett. Justin Hartman: Mrs. Haggett. Jane Frame: Susan Haggett. Mary Johnston: Ada Haggett. Mary Jean Townsley: Warren Creamer. John Peterson: Gallant. Fred Lott: Rosen, John Gillespie: Davenport. James Anderson. The play was under the able direction of Miss Glenna Basore. Y. M. C. A. MINSTREL The Y. M. C. A. presented its bi-annual minstrel, Thursday evening. April 21. in the Cedarville Opera House. The stage setting was the inside of a barn—baled straw, pitchforks, and o pony added realistic touches. Mr. John Fox. as interlocutor, and the end men kept the audience in an uproar throughout the evening. Special skits were presented by Harry Sinks. John Taylor. Harold Shaw, Cecil Thomas and Justin Hartman. The chorus accompanied by Wilmott Fischer sang both traditional and popular numbers. A hill-billy band and several solos completed the program. CEDAR DAY The annual Cedar Day festival was held on the morning of June 2 on the College Campus. Miss Dorothy Anderson, the May Queen, and her attendants came in to Pomp and Circumstance'' and began the festivities. The queen was crowned by last year's May Queen. Anna Jane Wham. The pageant itself was a dramatization of the old Greek myth of Demeter and Proserpina which related how our seasons originated. The story told of how Proserpina was seized by Pluto and taken to the underworld. This part was done magnificently by Gale Ross who rode in a realistic Greek chariot drawn by two black horses gaily adorned in flowers and wreaths.

The pageant was planned and presented by the Dramatic Club under the leadership of Miss Santmyer.
