Students who can answer all these questions are either eccentric or saw them before the Index went to press. In Index-making, we have concerned ourselves with present- ing a year's review, and we have in the process amassed a con- glomeration of material, nonsensical as well as sensible. While we have been partial to the former in presenting this quiz, we have attempted to indicate the variety of facts which have been embodied in this Index. If you were able to answer more than five questions correctly, you are supplied with more than an average amount of inconse- quential knowledge, and, incidentally, if you were able to answer more than five, you are more informed than we. In such a case, we suggest you returnyour book and have your money refunded. lVIost students are able to answer three, and we set that as pass- ing. Actually, a knowledge of Wooster implies far more than we could set forth in such a quiz. Gur purpose has been merely to indicate possibilities, and to aid you in enjoying your Index. ACADEMIC: Dr. Frank Guy Armitage. an outstanding: authority on Dickens. en- tertained students and fac- ulty in chapel early in March with a dramatic in- terpretation of such char- acters as Uriah Heep. las pictux-edt. Sydney' Carton. cmd Scrooge. Most popular ot Armitaqe's morning and evening presentations was a liqht-hearted ventrilo- quist act in which he poked fun at students and faculty.

This year. the week was led by genial Dr. Paul Iohnston. Dr. Iohnston accomplished the herculean task ot preaching many sermons, conducting' innumer- able meetings, conferring with doz- ens ol students and faculty. He is pictured at an amusing moment in o: discussion with freshman boys in Douqlass Hall. ATHLETIC: The Mount Union-Woos- ter basketball qame marked a high in Wooster basketball. A close. thrill-packed game lrom which the Scot cagers emerged victorious placed Wooster in the lead for the conference championship. Stranqely inconsistent. this 'year's basketball squad had the conference cham- pionship snatched away when they lost a late season game. SOCIAL: The Christmas formal dance was the climax of a busy yuletide social season. Students glided to the music of Larry Gx-ayson's orches- tra. This dance was tradition break- ing, the first dance ever to be held on a: school night, Formal-clad dan- cers were doubly-treated. Prof. l.ean's reading of the Christmas Carol in the chapel preceded the dance. fA ygdlf' Four facets combine to make up the complete picture which is Wooster. Academic culture is, of course, the chief aim of this liberal arts college. A back- ground for business, for social life, for living itself is afforded the student. A religious institution, Wooster is most certainly. An intelligent view of religion is encouraged and college fac- ilities are Wide in this field. Religion courses and extracurricular activities dovetail toward the formation of this view. Athletics are considered a Way toward developing the third of the all-important triumvirate-mind, soul, and body. And at Wooster eight major athletic squads and many intramural teams provide a means of physical education. Socially, the field is likewise wide. Dances, dramatic offerings, musical pro- grams, and dozens of other social-recrea- tion opportunities are afforded. In this, the High-Light section, the outstanding events-academic, religious, athletic, and social-are presented as a forward to the book proper, a more complete record. Fall At 4:00 p. m. September 18, President Wishart delivered Woosteris seventy-first convocation address, and school machinery, thus formally bidden, rolled into action. Six new instructors had been added, and a new field, aviation, had been opened up through the CAA flying course. Registration over, 279 new students began their orientation. Freshman week whirled newcomers into college activity. Monday night, Big Four showed frosh Wooster's social side. The freshman mixer aimed to acquaint REGISTRATION RAMIFICATIONS begin as Max an- swers the personal questions on his schedule card. Max has had other experiences at registering, hav- ing enrolled previously at Prague University and at New York University. The student registering at his lett is Eileen Shank. A Refugee Comes to Wooster MAX HELLMAN is Wooster's refugee student. Through a student exchange service which arranges trades between American and foreign universities Max was able to enroll in Wooster. From Prague. Czechoslovakia to Wooster is a big iump, but the refugee student readily acclimated himselt. Max likes America so well he is taking out United States citi- zenship papers. Here director oi admissions Racky Young tleftl and registrar Arthur Southwick are helping Max choose courses. the newcomers with each other. Tuesday morning frosh were forcibly aroused, exer- cised and fed in preparation for the numberless placement tests which they had to undergo. Saturday night frosh met their instructors formally at the Big Four reception, and weary yearlings walked home blind dates their big brothers and sisters had made for them. The following Friday an all-college walk-out and sing was intended to rouse spirit for the com- ing football season. Coach Boles, John Hess, and cheer leaders led festivities. DEAN WESTHAFER helps Max decide which courses he should take. Students at Wooster must average fifteen and one-half credit hours per sernester to graduate. To take over sixteen hours students must consult Dean Westhafer for permission. Hellman received permission, signed for seventeen hours. ,198 Al. THE FROSH MIXER is always a gala affair. The Big Four planned this year's mixer around a nautical theme-the gym became the S. S. Green- hom. First Mate Gale Weaner is leading the Wooster opened its season by outpassing Manchester 13-7. On Saturday, September 28, Ross Hallamay's orchestra played for the first all-college dance in the gym. Sophomore court, in the meantime, com- menced activities. Cocky first-year men gar- gled soapy water and counted tombstones. College trustees turned down petitions for off- campus dancing signed by several score of Wooster students. October 5 marked the debut of the Cruisers, a new orchestra destined to newcomers in a song session. Frosh got blind dates home when the girls lined up on one side of the gym, the boys on the other, cmd the two lines marched out of the door together. become college favorites as Larry Grayson. In the chapel, Dr. Henry Seidel Canby, ex- pert on Thoreau, was the first guest speaker, October 10, Two days later Wooster visited Cleveland on Migration Day to see a stubborn Case team drive to victory 7-0, and several days later Big Four squads initiated an equally strong drive for funds. Male students over twenty-one hied to the Grill, local registration place, October 16, and received draft cards instead of cokes. I. REGISTRATION at the beginning of a new session is a tumultuous timc+students at- tempting to fit unruly courses into sched- ules, weary taculty attempting to straighten out confused neophytes. Freshmen and sophomores register with the counsel of their advisers, iuniors and seniors with the head of their department maior. Students register in tiers: seniors, the privileged, go first. while Irosh are last. This year. regis- tration fell off slightly, with the women students gaining sharply over men. Of an enrollment of 906. women exceeded men by thirty-eight. FRESHMAN UNDERLINGS for a year are granted one day to make retribution-Sack Rush Day. The horse-and-rider contest, which is pictured, is the first of these events. Second is the tug-ot-war, and the final is a free-for-all over possession of a big medicine ball. Sophomores, better organized, won all three this year, thereby eaming the right to insist on frosh wearing dinks until Christmas. As usual, freshmen abandoned their hats before 'I'hanksgiving. THE ANNUAL WALK-OUT is a time when dining rooms close down and the whole college takes its evening meal picnic style. Men and women meet near the rock at the outset. They form in two lines and begin to walk out to Highland Park. When a whistle blows, men move up five girls to ioin a new walking companion. In a iew minutes the Whistle signals tor everyone to shift partners again. Then when the line reaches Highland, the couples end up eating their picnic supper together. ON THE ROCK stands a girlishly-dressed plebe. Sophomore court has found him guilty ot being a freshman. He is paying his penalty with an appear- ance before the whole student body. Other sentences for unfortunate first-year men have been mapping golf courses and counting tombstones. Scots Win Homecoming Tilt Homecoming week end, October 25-27, pro- vided a variety of entertainment for returning alumni. An all-college dance Saturday night with Eddie Paul's orchestra celebrated a Wooster victory over Muskingum, 14-3. Sat- urday night Outward Bound, first college dramatic offering of the year, projected Chrysanthemum-wearing grads into the here- after. ' Girls' initiation previewed the horrors of Halloween, when students went berserk, crashing the theatres, and providing interest for the local police. November 1, Holden Hall held the year's first formal, and four days later, the nation's voters disproved the saying, As Wooster goes . . . Dadis day, November 9, starred a full week- end. The Junior Prom took on new raiment as the J-Hop, Friday night, while an all-college Saturday night mourned a loss to Bowling Green, 26-14. A week later, Wooster closed its football season with an encounter with Ober- lin. During the season Wooster won four, lost three, and tied one. ON CONSCRIPTION DAY 105 Wooster men had to register. Dick Gernert writes the answers on his questionnaire while Coach L. C. Boles advises. Boles was an oiiicial in the college vicinity precinct. The Selective Service Act exempted all collegians from the drait until Iune. DR. PAUL SEARS. author of Deserts on the March, an outstanding professor of geology at Oberlin was a guest speaker in October. Here he is ioking with Dr. Bangham, head of the biology department. before making his talk. He lectured interestingly on the conservation of our natur- al resources. HOMECOMING DAY is traditional at Wooster. So is the rivalry which exists between dorms to see which ot them can decorate the front of their building with the cleverest display. Holden Hall and Warburton won this year. Here is the Holden entry. tThere is a picture of the Warburton display on page 1355. Turkey Day recess, November 20 to 25, saw many students depart. 'fThe Pennsylvania Railroad offers reduced ratesj . After Vacation, students returned to hear Erika Mann, WSGA speaker, discourse on foreign affairs. HALLOWEEN NIGHT Wooster fellows went to town. In traditional manner 200 men and a few women crashed the gates of Schine's theater to watch cr tree show. The Woos- ter police anticipated trouble, for they put on extra deputies iust for the night. The celebration was milder than last year when police resorted to tear gas to quell enthusiasm. Cagers Open Drills Coach Mose Hole in the meantime had be- gun drilling his quintet under Captain Pudge Hole, in preparation for their first encounter, with Miami, December 14. Winter The advent of December marked the turn- ing of attention to Yuletide festivities. The Student Senate decorated Kauke quad with a giant Christmas tree, While in every dorm students trimmed lesser trees. The season proper was innovated by the choir's presentation of portions of The Mes- siah, an oratorio, Which, like Professor Lean's reading of The Christmas Carol, has become an annual event. Dr. Lean's reading this year was held before the tradition-breaking Winter formal, a 12:00 affair which broke with cus- tom when it was held on the school night, De- cember 19. DR. KARL POLANYI was the class of 1917 speaker last tall. He was no magician, but he still mystiiied students. Slighting the English language proved more effective than sleiqht-of-hand. His subiect was The Theory of Fascism: A Deadloclc of Politics a:nd Economics. Students agreed that the discussion tailed to disperse the deadlock. ULTRA-REPUBLICAN WOOSTER went to the polls November 5. Straw votes had shown Wooster four to one in favor of Republican Wendell Willkie. Ele- phant clubs were the strongest campus political organizations. The Roosevelt election was an un- pleasant surprise. MISS ERIKA MANN, W.S.G.A. speaker, was prob- ably the most interesting personality who spoke here this year. Speaking on dictatorships, the daughter of tamed Thomas Mann inserted her vib- rant self into every sentence. Students thrilled to hear her tales of the horrors of London under tire and the perils ot democracy in time ot stress. THE W ASSOCIATION dinner was an event which brought athletes into the social limelight. Students who had earned their varsity letters dined. heard speakers. and elected officers. Highlight of the evening was the awarding of coveted letters and gold tootballs to deserving veterans. LANSING HATFIELD, baritone, was the first artist to appear here on the Wooster Federation ot Music program. He thrilled music-loving Woosterites. Stud- ents were not surprised when he won the Metropolitan Opera Company audition several weeks later. --su Gym The evening before, the Wooster Symphony presented its first concert of the season in celebration of its silver anniversary. In sports, Wooster's quintet opened its sea- son by defeating Miami 45-28, and the swim- ming team started a successful season with an interclass contest which the junior class won. Christmas vacation, which began the 20th, found both teams active. Finmen basked and practiced in Florida, while Wooster's cagers were handed a defeat by Duquesne 40-33. Fifth Section celebrated the return to school January 7 with an informal housewarming. A fire in their hallway brought town fire en- gines into Kenarden quad. Flu Strikes One Out of Five Hygeia Hall, college hospital, became the center for activities in January when an in- fluenza epidemic struck the campus. Almost 200 went to bed with the flu during the three- week siege. Chapel was suspended for one week, as well as all social events, so that dan- ger of its spreading might be lessened. Spirits, thus enfeebled, sank to new lows over the basketball defeat by Otterbein 33-31. This end- ed a thirty-six game conference win streak. A CHRISTMAS PARTY was sponsored for underprivileged children by the Y.W.C.A. Each Y.W. girl took charge of one little girl. seeing that she entered into the games and got her share of pop com balls and presents. Margaret Swartz is the Santa Claus. '4-1, THIS CHRISTMAS TREE on Kauke quad is almost as tradi- tional to the Wooster Christmas season as is Dr. I.ean's reading of The Christmas Carol. Every year the student senate pays from fifteen to twenty-five dollars for this quad decoration. Examination week at the end of the first semester, January 24 to 31, lowered the col- lege into still greater depths. When the girls' dorms revived, they joined with town groups to organize a Bundles for Britain club. Presi- cient Wishart dedicated a new piano, the gift of the late Birt E. Babcock, on February ll. MILDRED DILLINGS, recognized as the world's most famous woman harpist, came to Wooster January 8 through the auspices of the Wooster Federation ot Music: hers was one of tour programs in the Cooperative Concert series. Miss Dillings has given concerts in countries all over the world. it Lift A SECOND FRESHMAN MIXER was a highlight ol the late winter season. Yearlings who felt they were not properly acquainted with their class- mates did the organizing. Chief entertainment of the affair was dancing. Usual roles were ex- changed as girls did the cutting-in. Clear as Crystal, by Johnston Lewis, was the 1941 Gum Shoe Hop. It portrayed life in a small college where Scott Leonard sang his way to victory in a three-way vie for the hand of Tink Carter. Alex Drysdale was elected to represent Wooster at Ewing College in Allahabad, India. On February 27, Harry B. Flory, graduate of Wooster and London journalist, spoke inter- VHONSKY AND BABIN climaxed Wooster's Coop- erative Concert series. Although youthful. they have already won fame as duo-pianists par excellent. They have made tour transcontinental tours. Wooster students were especially interested to learn that the pair was married: they had sacrificed separate careers, but had found a greater one as a team. estingly at chapel on the British situation. That evening Fortnightly waxed dramatic, presenting Amelia Goes to the Ball, a comic opera which had a packed house laughing from start to finish. Frosh held a second freshman mixer, March 1, in which boys and girls changed roles as escorts. But frosh triumph was short-lived, initiation week, March 3-8, under a new short-week plan, ushered l0l freshman pledges into fraternity life. Duo-pianists Charm Music Lovers On March l, Vronsky and Babin, famed duo-pianists, were guests, appearing on the Federation of Music series. The next day, Dr. Frank Guy Armitage held students spell- bound with impersonations of Dickens' char- acters. Paul Gruber and Beth Boyer played leads in Berkeley Square, a costume play of the eighteenth century, which was presented March 13 to l5. The College formally recognized the advent of Spring with the declaration of spring vaca- tion, March 28 to April 8. Glee Club men toured Indiana, Illinois, and Michigan during the recess. SECTIONS VIE for mythical honors in dance dec- orations. By general acclarnation, Third Section's hunting lodge idea was the best. Douglass Hall's dance floor was converted into a mountain hunting lodge from which dancers could see snow- capped mountains projected in color on the dorm walls. Spring RUTH LAMBORN of Arlington, Virginia, was the campus choice to preside over Color Day festivities as May Queen. May queen election time is a period of vote-swapping, soliciting, and haranguing. The honor traditionally goes to a iunior. Ruth was chosen from a group of beauteous nominees which included Peg Bantord, Eleanor Rogers, Margaret Sherrard, and lean Ann Cotton. The May Queen selected Eleanor Rogers to be maid-of-honor. QUEEN'S ACTIVITIES President, French club Classical club Sunday Evening Forum Cabinet President, Trumps Freshman basketball Tennis Swimming Co-author, 1940 Color Day pug eant Y.W. advertising French plays Classical club play, 1941 af, Chief social event of Wooster's spring season Was the spring formal, April 18. A fast negro band from Hollywood, Cali- fornia, Les Hite, Was hired. The band made a big hit on the campus. The high-light of the evening came when they played a swing arrangement of The Love Song. Most dancers were pleasantly dumbfounded. The Chaucer banquet, May 15, found many English students under Professor Bradford dressed in costumes of old Eng- land. A yearly event, the Chaucer ban- quet is a time when modern conven- iences are discarded. Students dine unencumbered with cutlery or manners. Entertainment is of a medieval nature, and a court joker is in charge of the fun- making. King and Queen who reigned over last year's fete were Art Cowles and Beth Boyer. Lamborn Reigns Over Color Day The Color Day pageant is the most colorful event of the Wooster year. The festivity is traditionally reigned over by the beauty queen of the campus chosen from the junior class. This year, the student body selected Ruth Lamborn. THE MAY POLE DANCE on Color Day is a traditional sen- ior responsibility. Gaily costumed merry-makers trip about the festooned may pole to the enjoyment of some 5.000 spectators. About 250 students performed in the seven dances which made up last year's pageant, The Warp and Woof of Wooster. rW..,,: ,t ,+ 9 1 . . We fx A :Q . , JYW' . Q ' -,ffl CLIMAX OF THE CHAUCER BANQUET is the carving of the roast pig, the iob done in this picture by English student Dean Mordhorst. Presiding over the gala dinner is the bearded Chaucer, Prof. Bradford, who teaches the popular course. The old English banquet last year was visited by Life magazine photographers, who were amused. enlight- ened, but not sufficiently impressed to include Chaucer pictures in Life issues. Her maid-of-honor, who ran second in the balloting, was Eleanor Rogers. This year's spectacle was the Work of Alice Forman and Betty Dodds, who, aided by instructor Arthur Kaltenborn, also directed the performance. The pageant Was impressionistically oriental. ENTHRONED IN A FLOWER-COVERED BOWER the may queen watches the pageant. Last year, Ieanne Simmons was the queen. To the left of Ieanne is Lee Young, the retiring monarch. To the right are Barbara Caldwell, Ieanne's maid-of-honor, Eleanor Fleming, and Dottie Booher. Queenly pomp and ceremony lend dignity to the performance. It was laid in a Persian market, and all the pageantry, pomp, and color of the East were present. The story is derived from the Arabian Nights tales. Scheherezade, played by Bunny Leach, is a princess who tells count- less stories to amuse Sultan Bud Rahtz. The action developed through group dances and concluded with a prayer in oriental style. The most colorful dance was perhaps the slave-girl dance, in which fourteen dancing girls rose from a cloud of smoke. The most amusing incident of the performance was the picket- ing of Aladdin by a so-called magicianls union. Commencement Week Is Finale The last week of the school year is Commencement Week. Events follow each other in rapid succession. The Senior picnic is Wednesday-the class journeys to a near-by lake, plays, dines. Thursday night Will Bradley's band holds sway over the Senior Prom. Friday, alumni begin arriving for the eventful week- end, and Friday evening seniors present a play. On Saturday, alumni gather for confabs. In the evening, they play host to the seniors at a banquet and dance. Sunday morning, the first of the two great events of Commencement takes place when Prexy steps to the pulpit in august academic robes and delivers the baccalaureate sermon. The chapel is filled to over- flowing. Eyes are misty as seniors file from their pews for the last time as undergraduates. Monday, June 16, dawns, and seniors are tense. They form in long lines, march through the seated spectators to their places under the cathedral of elms, and as Senator Norris, commencement speaker, makes his address, they realize that they are seniors no more.

Socially, the senior prom is the finale of the student's lifetime as a college student. The senior picnic sketch- ed above, is his last informal social function as an undergraduate: the sen- ior prom his last formal function. The baccalaureate is an impressive church service held the Sunday before com- mencement, at which Prexy delivers a farewell message to the seniors. COMMENCEMENT EXERCISES inspire a wealth of memories. Past are the ar- dors of study, the cramming for exams, the unforgettable formal dances, the bull sessions that ,followed them, the ex- citement at football and basketball games. As they march up the aisle, seniors try to form new perspectives that will guide their living in a new world away from a sheltered campus. I5 ,.. .

The coeducational principles of Wooster extend to the Board: Miss Lucy L. Notestein, associate edi- tor of Reader's Digest, and Mrs. Albert D. Frost, daughter of the former president, John Campbell White, are present repre- sentatives. As the source of final judgment, the Board stands as a bulwark of control between Wooster and the World. Galpin Hall, the Administration Building Prexy - Synonymous with Wooster All we could say about Charles F. Wishart's career and erudition has already been written, so we intend to show how he is more than President of the College of Wooster. Sym- phonies are built around one theme which throbs beneath every movement, like the heartbeat of the whole symphony. To reach back into the garnered memories of this year is to realize that in Prexy is the theme for the college. Impressions of him return, some- how symbolizing each mood of college life. lt is fitting to speak of him in this musical figure, for he loves music as few men do. The moods of our memory are like movements of a symphony, so let's listen for the theme. Allegro: Big Four reception-and Prexy playing the Love Song to end the evening. He touch- es the chords quietly, his head thrown back, and his eyes far away-he has seen many students grow suddenly serious when they stand to sing that song. He knows its mean- ing. Chapel-the morning Prexy read Casey at the Bat. Only rarely does the whole school feel such sense of solidarity in laughter- that most unifying of emotions. Every twink- ling eye in the chapel revealed how close together Prexy had brought his audience in enjoyment of that reading. Andante: Senior girls cherish their morning carol sing at Christmas time, and practice faithfully so their music will have just the right blending of gayety and tenderness. This year the President Wishart poses ai cx pic- nic with faculty children. Murcia Ann Graebel, Diane Ingram, and Iudy Young. tradition was symbolized for the seniors by Prexy, listening from his window in the dim dawn, young grandson David with him. That familiar face, the small, round, wondering face beside it, and in front of them a tall red Christmas candle seemed a complete picture of what that loveliest of all seasons should be. Scherzo: Football games-and PreXy's back punctu- ating a line of hunched backs on the team's bench . . . the leaping lights of a bonfire, and a shouting circle of students. Fall pep rallies have a flavour which sends shivers down the most stolid spine, for something about the darkness, and the shadows which make the most familiar faces seem mysterious gives the bonfire a perennial magic. Silhou- etted against the flames is Prexy, saying his word for the team. Largo: PreXy's crimson academic hood, marching ahead of a file of seniors at commencement. lt is fitting that he should lead them this last morning. He has been a good guide. We will not forget Charles F. Wishart. ,1, .92 f- . me ' ,W V iv i? ir- 3' 1-X 'xii , Ta -Q A mes- af - '- 2 15' , ' D? . E' I '1 1 '. 547 N If . My f -, '.-ly M WESTHAFER . . 22 Years at Wooster ln addition to being professor and head of the Physics Depart- ment, Dr. W. R. Westhafer has been Dean of the College since 1929. Only a few of his duties are arranging the chapel programs, planning the curriculum, and acting as buffer between the faculty and stud- ents. He taught at Ohio Wesleyan, and Amherst before coming to Wooster in 1918. Included in his accomplishments are the publica- tion of two books and several magazine articles, and the attaining of Phi Beta Kappa rating. THE BOOK STORE sold 520,000 worth of text books this year. Here Bertha Uhlendorff, book store head, is selling a book to Betty Houliston. In the back- ground is Les Elliott, one of the store's four student workers. Because the store doesn't try to operate for profit it's able to sell everything at ten per cent less than the market price. DONALD DICKASON, assistant business manager of the college is one of the busiest men of the campus. The photographer stopped everyone who came into his oifice for five minutes, and then took this picture. These people waiting for Dickey's counsel are tleit to rightl Bob Kerr: Bob Iohnson, college painter: John Handloser: Cody, janitor at Taylor hall: Mrs. Shafer, Mr. Dickason's secretary: and a salesman. ren. ,, -r-as ,, :mfg 9 -3 -F, .7 . -,v,.-.'.T t'1,......,,- .,-. m..,.. l MCE lla 11 'iiixfktk , Q, 52. ,PQ 'fi gi 13 'J i jf' I vi' ha.. ....... se... .Lf sf-.. .,. ze... ...ef at-....e' .gy .ia n' .J.'X.l.-y ' gigs- ay .-:,gg,Q-fq,,p,- cnwfzil ll is Ci Being assistant business manager is like sitting on top of an elephant and leading the cumbersome beast forward. This may sound like a circus and it is, but then again it isn't. That is, it's like managing a three ring circus, but then that's no circus. Mr. Dickason has to see to such various duties as supervising plumbing, landscap- ing, carpenter Work, and putting handles back on Douglass doors, not to mention running the book store, which in turn sells everything from desk lamps to peanuts. Of course, Miss Bertha Uhlendorff has actual management of the book store and the peanuts, but then Mr. Dickey has the supervision of Miss Uhlendorff. ls Purchasing' Iiqent Perhaps the more difficult part of his Work is in purchasing the supplies that every day flow into Wooster. Office supplies for the Ad. building, pianos for the conservatory, Windows for Kenarden, text books for the students, and blue books for the professors, all must be ordered by Mr. Dickason. By taking the text book as a case in point, one can easily illustrate the central position that Dicky holds. He orders the books, he sells the books, then buys them again for resale, and the circle is completed. All of which proves that it is a big busy position on which the only 'circles We would complete would be those we'd get under our eyes. More Administration Notables Deans Display Diplomacy Headquarters of the Wooster diplomatic department is the Dean's office, second fioor of the administration building. John Bruere is the Dean of Men, and a popular one, too. Section pledging, initiation week, freshman orientation, class cuts-solving these prob- lems are some of his duties. Wooster's ultra-efficient dean of women is Rachel MacKenzie. All social affairs of the college receive her special attention, in addi- tion to her usual deanly duties. From Bundles for Britain to marriage, it's all in a year's work. This is the attitude of the dean of women's office. Miller Marshals Absent Alumni Alumni office secretary John D. Miller and his two assistants, Pearl Heckbert and Ethel McCullough, keep track of Wooster's 9,101 living graduates. So that graduates may keep track of campus happenings, this oiiico pub- lishes a twenty-page Wooster Alumni Bulle- tin ten times a year. Over 2,100 alumni subscribe. Last fall, Miller and his assistants published a 640 page alumni catalogue con- taining the names of all of Wooster's gradu- ates arranged in three indices, alphabetically, geographically, and departmentally. A cata- logue was sent to every alumnus. Treasurer Takes Tuition ln 1870 Wooster's attendants paid fifty dollars for their college tuition. But Wooster standards have risen, and with them the tuition cost. For the 1940-41 session, treasurer Bruce Knox collected a three-hundred--dollar fee. During the year, Wooster's new treasurer handled over one-and-one-half million dollars. General supervisor of the invisible 125 is John D. McKee, business manager of the college. The 125 are the workers behind the scenes who keep the machinery of the college in perfect running condition. Operation and maintenance, supervision of dormitories - these are some of the duties of his office. Auditor Attends to Accounts Frank Spalding's official title is merely College Auditor, but that phrase covers a multitude of activities. Books of all shapes and sizes Hlled with column after column of figures are the bones', for this watchdog of the treasury. Every penny, given or received, is catalogued in its several proper positions. Incidental to his job is administering advice to treasurers and business managers of cam- pus organizations. Minutes consume the hours of Curt Taylorls day, figuratively and literally. As secretary for the Board of Trustees and secretary of the college, Taylor must record and mimeograph the proceedings of the Board and of com- mittee meetings. His secretaryship extends to Prexy, for whom he keeps an involved schedule of appointments. ' Registrar and Recruiter To Arthur Southwick, Registrar, and Rackey Young, Director of Admissions go the task of providing the college with material. ln the course of the year they interview and correspond with 1,000 youths setting about 300 on the Wooster pathways to knowledge. An interesting job at all times, their's sometimes is a sad one. Rejections are their unpleasant task, but in the joys of serving youth to the best of their ability, they find emoluments of sentiment which are beyond value. has-ww -fm i' 9,1 .2 11 . '72 ?'.

The article indicated that the Ashland game was a walk away. It wasn't . . . and Art was introduced on the staif in order to keep sports articles a little closer to the facts. From that point his coaching days were numbered and his newspaper days on the ascendancy. Since then the man and the job have grown up together. Anyone who goes into his office will see, by the copy clipped to the wall, that it is a big job for one man especially when he must be reporter, photographer and editor, yet publicity takes but a fraction of his time. Even before the vogue of superman, Art was handling stu- dent aid as well. In fact this phase takes more than half of his working day. Assignment of workers and waiters, N.Y.A. jobs are all his responsibility. In Art's own words: lt's a cold day on the Equator when I don't interview a dozen fellows. As a result of these interviews, financial gaps are bridged, jobs are introduced to the proper men, and Art Murray has done it again. gm V+ . ' -.zitrs-1.'i2f.'Q.'J M ,MW ART MURRAY and his secretary Midge Young examine press notices which ART has written for newspapers. On this bulletin board all of Art's write-ups are pasted. Murray has a double role, lor he is both student aid and publicity director. Once a full time journalist, Art sends out dispatches about every phase of Wooster activity. IN THE DARK ROOM Art Murray spends much time. An experienced photog- rapher he sees his shots through from lens to press dispatch. Campus publi- cations are grateful for Art. Any pic- tures he has are available for their use. On iournalistic matters both Index and Voice editors lrequently seek his advice: invariably they follow it. OVER 300 STUDENT WORKERS owe their iobs to Art Murray. As student aid director he has charge not only ot plac- ing college workers, but also oi award- ing money grants. These two freshman leaf-rakers are part-time workers. They are Dick Craven tleftl and Iohn Stalker. Board iobs are the most popular. There are 114 men holding jobs in six dining halls. AN ORGANIZER, Miss Mabel C. Little has charge of dormitory supervision. With an efficient staff of three assistants she holds sway over tive dormitories. For organizations she aids in planning parties, teas, and special dinners. Under her tutelage things have a way of running smoothly. IN HOLDEN DINING ROOM 136 upper- class girls dine. To help headwaiters handle their dining rooms efficiently Miss Little has written a booklet ex- plaining the correct etiquette of serving meals. Every spring she holds a school to instruct headwaiters-elect. The heads are required to read etiquette books from the library. Six Lessons From the Madam Without exaggeration, the department of dormitories plays the most vital part in a Wooster student's life. You can talk all you want about not living on bread alone, but when you face the issue squarely, Where are you Without a substantial fraction applied to the stomach Wall three times daily? And you can rave about the great out of doors all you Want, but Where are you Without a roof over your head? CThey say it rains in Wooster at times.J Even the flowers that bloom in the spring tra la, have nothing to do with the casegn they all owe their life to the foresight of the department of dormitories. It's a big business, keeping the pantry stocked to provide food for over 2,000 meals a day. When you feed approximately 800 people a day, you are not doing it on chicken feed. Yet in spite of the mass of business details that must absorb most of their time, Miss Little and her staff take the time to put forth that extra eifort which makes college more like home. In the freshman dormitories, for example, the girls Who have birthdays are feted at a birthday party. ln all the dining rooms, holidays are recognized with appropriate ice-cream deserts: Washington gets the axe, St. Patrick Wears the green, and Easter lays an egg. HEAD COOK in Kenarden, Wooster's largest dining room, is the popular Iohn A. Hersey. He controls kitchen workers and full-time assistant cooks. A cook for twenty years, Hersey feels he does his best iob on meat roasts which he cooks according to his own recipes. 25 HEAD LIBRARIAN Miss Elizabeth Bechtel needs six lull-time assistants and twenty part-time working students to run the library efficiently. It is her iob to meet with the eleven- member faculty library committee and decide what publica- tions to purchase. She has been cr Wooster librarian since 1900, is anxiously awaiting the-day when the financial campaign funds will permit expansion of the present cramped facilities. THE MAIN DESK is the clearing house tor the library. Miss Bechtel's annual library report shows that the average stu- dent takes out seven books a year. Behind the desk: Student worker Mary Young. and reference librarian Miss White. In front of the desk: Drusilla May, Eleanor Kister. Mary lane Benson, Roge Stonebumer. and Reid Blocher. Lib and Learn Freshmen became acquainted with the academic aspect of the Henry Frick Library through an early fall tour. Miss Olla Fern Kieffer, head of the reserve department, explained how to take a book out of the reserve, most frosh mustered enough courage to try sometime during the year. On the main floor, frosh learned from head librarian Miss Elizabeth Eechtel that the library subscribed to 328 newspapers and magazines. As they wandered around on the main Hoor, observing yearlings noted Miss Gretchen White, reference librarian, at the main desk recommending a book to a sophisticated upperclassmang they over- heard Miss Maudie Nesbit, circulation department head, remind another that books could be kept out only two weeks. Some of the tourists were interested in the work which head cataloguer Miss Ruth McClelland and her assistant, Miss Norine Flack, were doing at a table on the east end of the Hoor. With several card files before them, they were putting in cards for new books. Miss McClelland said there were nearly 90,000 cards in the files, and that new books added 3,000 more each year. HEAT LAMP TREATMENTS are seemingly a cure-all lor everything from colds to muscular bruises. College physician Robert N. Wright is adjusting one ot the hospital's three heat lamps. In addition to heading the college hospital statf Dr. Wright handles a considerable town practice. HEAD NURSE Miss Ethel Venman administers nose drops to a cold-suffering patient. In winter months nurses give fifty nose drop treatments a day. Miss Venman's assistants are Miss Elsie Iohnson and Miss Floribel Boyden. Hygeia nurses must be versatile, able to cope with any emergency. Heat Lamps and Pink Pills Hygeia Hall is the final resting place of all those colds, aches, and pains which Wooster students experience in the course of a school year. Last fall Hygeia was kept busy with the examination of fresh- men, including the administering of the tuberculin test and an x-ray follow-up if necessary. During the Winter months Hygeia and the gym department Worked together so that defects which Were dis- covered in the fall examination could be corrected in the gym Work. The three Week epidemic in January turned Hygeia into a college hangout. The peak of the epidemic Was reached when chapel Was dismissed for one Week to lessen the danger of its spreading further. Nurses estimate that influenza plagued one out of every five students. Plenty of sleep and good care sent most students out in time for semester examinations, but made hard Work for Dr. Wright and his three nurses. The history of the year for Hygeia could be written in terms of about forty minor operations, five major ones, an average of fifty-five calls daily, and four hundred admissions. It is Wooster's haven of rest for the sick and the Weary. M 1 4: 1 1 '-R 1 ,, .N 1, 4 1 u A, ,, Lx J - 1 R X ' ,. i - 1 21, , . Y! I ,J ,L tp 1? X 1 -v .

Sixth row: Hudson, Singer, Harring. Big' Wooster's future Adam Smiths and Madam Perkins gain their lore from a trio headed by Dr. Alvin S. Tostlebe. He teaches the prin- ciples course, but his specialties are money and banking and public finance. At present, he is on leave of absence in Washington, where the government finds his counsel use- ful. He is directing a research project on agricultural taxation. Pupils Peruse Public Problems Most enrolled of the advanced courses are Assistant Professor E. Kingman Eberhart's labor problems and economic reform. Stu- dents of labor problems decide what should be done about insecurity of jobs, low wages, and long hours. Economic reformists com- pare capitalism with socialism, communism, fascism, and cooperation. This spring Eber- hart was appointed to the National Advisory Council of the research organization known as Consumers' Union. One day a week is all that Instructor L.

They refuse to comment on the probable post-war economic situation, but they shake their heads pessimistically.

Front row: Kemp, Kingsley, Eisenberger, Sommerlatte, Ahrens, McClellan, Hart. Back row: Wheeler, Bollens, Mr. Ells- worth, Mr. Hail, Miss Dunham, Bone. MOST POPULAR COURSE is Miss Dun- hcn'n's World War. The class meets three times a week under compulsion, but on Monday mornings Miss Dunham has an informal discussion period for all interested. Students may bring up any current topic. At the discussion period this Monday moming were Cleft to rightl, Margaret Sherrard, Miss Dun- ham, Jim Berry, Alex Drysdale, and Paul Gruber. So that she can teach this course dynamically, Miss Dunham reads fifty books a year. HISTORIANS Dr. Clayton Ellsworth, Dr. William I. Hail, and Dr. Aileen Dunham discuss Enqland's chances for victory in the war. Ellsworth is cm authority on American history, Hail on Far Eastern history, and Dunham on European, past and present.

History Department Correlates Past and Present A distinctly cosmopolitan quality engulfs the history department, for few students pass through Wooster without some experience among the archives of the ages. By turning back the clock, students relive epoch-making events which pass in quick succession. In the West wing of Kauke, department head, Dr. Hail, has covered all ages of British and Oriental history. Here the Tapping rebellion has been fought, here the 'Treaty of Shimino- seke has been signed. Second Hoor Kauke has seen the unfolding of the renaissance and the reformation. The French revolution has echoed cries of Liberate, Egalite, Fraternitef' from Dr. Dunham's room. Here also, under the pseudonym of World War, the history of the world since 1870 is reviewed. Dr. Ellsworth guides his students through the course of American history from Colum- bus to Roosevelt, socially and politically. His course is a mobile unit rambling all over Kauke and occasionally into the basement of the library. Nine Hours of Religion Are Required... 1 A chapel speaker once said that on the campus occasionally one may see students enrolled in Dr. Anderson's marriage course doing their homework. Perhaps this shows that the nine hours of religion requirements do not bore Wooster's Joe College and Betty Coed. How can they, when the religion department boasts such names as President Wishart, Dr. Vance, Dr. Anderson, and Dean Bruere? Time means little to this department, for the religious study runs the gamut from the Old Testament era to contemporary thought in a few years. Within this wide range, also fall the subject of poetic literature, prophetic reformers, and the life and letters of Paul. Special attention is given to missions, Chris- tian social work, and religious education instruction. Marriage is Popular Course Representing an ultra-modern mode in the department is the popular preparation for marriage course. The class discussions do not touch upon the radio-serial conception of marriage, but face frankly the questions of married life. Undoubtedly, the ideas gained in these discussions and the theories pro- pounded in other religion classes have outside reverberations. Many times, the dorm lights burn far into the night while bull sessions on Three of Philosophy Poorly anchored beliefs are set adrift when dubious sophomores tangle with the problems of immortality, freedom, religion, and evil in the metaphysical realm of Dr. Virgilius Ferm's introductory course. Dr. Ferm and Dr. Chesley T. Howell are not worried however, for they have a life line of almost a dozen courses to throw to the floundering students. The first link in the chain is a class in logic. Discussions about the principles of scientific and formal reasoning help the students to or- ganize their thoughts in a consistent manner. Philosophers Organize Thoughts Should I do this? 't'Did he act justly? These questions find an answer in the courses in ethics and theory of value. Religion is also investigated as the students attempt to define satisfactorily soul, immortality, and God. Mysticism, conversion, and the development of religious beliefs are stressed in the psychol- ogy of religion. Psychology of artistic appre- ciation and expression forms the link of aesthetics. Philosophy of the ancient Greeks, supplemented by that of the important medi- eval thinkers, adds the final touch to the well- forged chain. Theoretically, students emerge with well-organized thoughts, prepared to religion hold sway. A POPULAR PROFESSOR of reliqion is Prof. Iames Anderson. The broad- rimmed hat you often see him wearing is a Texas model. for Texas was where Dr. Anderson spent his first 26 years. He has been at Wooster since 1928: was dean of men from 1930-1935. converse with the sages. DR. PERM gave a party for his twenty- two philosophy maiors last Christmas season. Philosophers in this picture are Cleft to rightl Dr. Perm. Hal Streeper. Charles Wynn, Margaret Coryell, and Paul Hearne. DR. CHESLEY T. HOWELL fleltl and department head Dr. Virqilius Perm are interesting teachers as well as brilliant scholars. I-'erm has written eight books: he uses his own writings for textbooks in most of his classes. Howell has like- wise written many books. J. MILTON VANCE Dr. Vance, acting head of the religion de- partment, has the longest record of service on the Wooster faculty. He Was' graduated from Lake Forest College and attended theological 34 Years at Wooster seminary at Princeton and at McCormick. His advanced studies and travels in Europe, Palestine, and India enable him to use first hand information in his classes. Sociology and Poly Science The sociology and political science depart- ments join walls in the northwest corner of second floor Kauke. Head of the former is Prof. Archibald Johnston. His most interest- ing course is criminology. Students visit the Ohio State Penitentiary and the London Prison farm for first-hand study. Assistant Prof. Louis W. Ingram has a foot in both of these departments. I-le teaches a unique sociological course, propaganda and public opinion. For term projects this year, students wrote original propaganda campaigns on vital issues. In the political science field, he teaches public administration and municipal govern- ment. Dr. Mary Z. Johnson heads the political science department. In her constitutional and international law courses, students gain prac- tical experience by solving theoretical cases. They use the seven shelves of law volumes in the library reserve in making their decisions. Her most enrolled course is comparative government, in which she analyzes new ten- dencies in government. English Majors Are Non-Combatant The return of the native to Wooster is a joyous one, for here there is no breach be- tween the class of '84 and '44, What to talk about? Why, The Return of the Native. Who can forget that freshman daze of days with its share of Hardy, grammar, and glimpses of culture yet to come. With the Self-Reliance of Emerson, pros- pective majors leap into more lofty iields of literature. Perhaps it will be Dr. Lowell W. Coolidge's seventeenth century classics or Dr. M. Rebecca Thayer's English literature. Then too, there is the technique of poetry under department head Prof. Frederick W. Moore or Assistant Prof. George W. Bradford's course in Beowulf, One can hardly overlook instructor MacLean's short story course or Dean MacKenzie's eighteenth century litera- ture. Chaucer, Shakespeare, Shelley-on roll the writers with the semesters. Term papers, themes, critical studies-out pours the genius formerly dormant in the Woosterite's litera- ture-loving soul. NEWEST COURSE in the English depart- ment is Mr. MacLean's American short story. Students read 2,700 pages during the semester, delving into the works of such popular authors as Washington Irving, O'Henry, Edgar Allen Poe, and, in the modem era, lohn Steinbeck and Dorothy Parker. In the classroom, MacLean leads discussions on the merits of the various stories. Meeting here in an extra-curricular conference are tlelt to rightl, Frank Coe, Betty Dodds, Mr. MacLean, and Barbara Caldwell. SOCIOLOGY CLUB met monthly under the leadership ot Frank Coe. Their best program was a talk on conservation by Edmund Secrist of the state forestry department. He illustrated his talk with colored movies. Front row: Booher, Craig, Kirk, Putman R. Haas. Keene.

THIS LIE DETECTOR is the psychology department's. Dr. Sharp notes the vibrating hand of the meter as he tries the test on Dottie Bolster, psych maior. Those are silver electrodes in Dottie's hands: a slight current of electricity is passing through her body. Slight emotional chcmges will invariably occur if she lies: these changes affect the re- sistance in the current, and hence cause marked changes in the meter hand. PSYCHOLOGY CLUB is predominantly temale. President Betty Roeder says that any student who has taken a psy- chology course may ioin. Seated: Gensbigler, Fleming, Bryson, B. Roeder, Helbig, I.

With this news a shaking student turned away from the consultation room of Professors Martin Remp and Winford L. Sharp. Later in his general psychology class he discovered that neurosis was just jittery nerves especially prevalent at final exam time. He also discovered that departmental majors study not only the ab- normal reactions of criminals and insane, but also educational and child psychology. Some apply the Stanford-Binet test for intelligence on pupils at the Beall Avenue School, or on patients at the Apple Creek State Hospital. When he went to introductory psych lab he found Miss Ruth Westlund was in charge. He looked askance at one girl who was tracing a star by looking through a mirror. A boy in one corner was taking a personality trait test. Falsehoods Take a Powder For additional information our curious student attended psychology club meetings. There a demonstration of the department's new Uaffectometerw or lie detector issued a warning to all students to be careful of what they say-especially around Dr. Sharp or Dr. Remp. At other meetings he was fascinated with a study of the lives of contemporary psychologists. - DR. WINFORD L. SHARP was once a church pastor. He has taught psychology at Wooster since 1930. His favorite subiect is the experimental course. Mr. and Mrs. Sharp were head residents at Kenarden in 1936-37. .. f' X za My ., , ,,,,f,.,7, , H - yi, fn, f V',- .W ' Mfg? -uw' s hw , 0 X X 2 , tv W , , , S . ,, 'W , aww' aw :mt 'v 'W 'M mp 'Kzf 45,-'fr CW M n 1 W mn - - .,...,.

Thus the German students salt their learning with fun. Enthusiasm bursts forth in classes too- especially in the cheery t'Guten Tag which greets Prof. Schreiber and Instructor Graebel on Monday mornings. 3 8 H Often grammar and translation are forgotten when a discussion arises about the German trends in music, literature, or art. In the more advanced course of Goethe, the discussions are flavored with the philosophy and literary style of that famous Writer. For those students who plan to continue in German, the department has established a chapter of the national fraternity, Delta Phi Alpha. The regulations for entrance may seem rather severe to the aspiring beginner, for five semesters of college German or the equivalent of these, a B average, and a C av- erage in college Work are required. At their monthly meetings the fraternity members discuss the literary trends in Germany. Us- ually an outside speaker leads the discussion on a particular period. Pardon My Southern U-Xmerical Accent Don Quixote and the Windmill are intro- duced to Wooster students in the modern novel and drama course which Dr. Ruth Richardson, head of the Spanish department, teaches. Students who elect to fulfill their two-year language requirement in Spanish begin in the elementary course by studying grammar and reading easy prose. Survivors study grammar and read hard prose in the second year. With the drudgery of fundamen- tals out of the Way, classes are then allowed to read the poetry and prose of Spanish-American f f V 11.1. 11mm--:lg-mu.

The last six weeks of the course is a study oi iob-finding principles. SENIOR EDUCATION students teach one course for a se- mester at the high school. Regular teachers sit in and coach practice teachers in after-class conferences. In this picture, seventh graders are polishing the apple with Miss Marjorie Kemp. State teaching requirements are seven- teen hours of education courses. I39rois3oeo'tiife Irlours Education My first class, ohh! With a gulp, the stu- dent teacher enters the Wooster High School classroom. Frantically, he tries to remember the instructions so carefully memorized in the preparatory courses. y There was that course in management. Mr. Stoneburner and Dr. Bushnell answered all the possible problems that would arise. Surely there Was an answer to the question of how to make a good impression. Then, there was principles of teaching under Prof. Stoneburn- er. I only hope that everything Works accord- ing to my plans. And I mustn't forget all those suggestions that Mr. McKee gave us in the course on the American education system, or the last minute Warnings of Mr. Southwick in vocational trends. But just Wait until I tell this experience about how Well I managed the class to the members of Epsilon Rho and Sigma Tau Delta-oh, there's the bell! Well, here goes-good morning, class! Dreaming of Yesterday Classical students are those who take any of the twenty-three courses in Latin or Greek. Among the more popular courses which Greek department head Dr. Eva M. Newnan teaches are Plato and Homer, a full-year course in which portions of Plato's dialogues and the Iliad or Odyssey are studied. In Latin, department head Dr. Frank H. Cowles' best attended course is Roman civil- ization which consists of lectures on the life and art of the late republic and the early Roman empire.

Pictured here are department are Dr. Newnan and Professor Virgil E. Hiatt. The Classical club enjoys throughout the year speakers on various classical topics. The big event of the 1940-41 session was the Roman banquet to which the members came in Roman dress and dined in Roman style. Those with deeper classical inclinations compose the honorary society, Eta Sigma Phi. The aim of this group is to increase their knowledge of both Greek and Latin culture.

I Debate seminar is the class from which Mr. Miller selects his debaters to pit against the rabble-rousers of the other colleges. The rab- ble also comes from this class, because all classes in original speech must attend the home debates. This provides that joy of every public speaker-an audience! SPEECH CORRECTION is one oi Arthur Ka1tenbom's jobs. Here, he is making a record ot what Beth Boyer says into the microphone. The department has had this S500 record- making equipment two years. In that time, Kaltenbom has made over 800 records. Two summers of study at North- western University have made the Wooster speech assist- ant an authority on speech correction. His services are available for any student who wishes to improve the quality oi his speaking. Two questions were studied this year: That the nations of the Western Hemisphere should form a permanent uniong and, That the United States should cease to oppose Japanese ag- gression. The reward for hard Work Were trips to neighboring colleges and participation in numerous home debates. ' CONTEST WINNERS in oration and readings were tleit to rightl, lim Baird. Marilyn Iohnston, Herb Rogers, cmd loan Campbell. Baird won the state men's contest with an oration. Wake Up America: Campbell was winner in the Women's contest, giving Wooster a clean sweep.

These debates were all non-decision, lor Mr. lVliller's idea is to train speakers rather than to win debates. Wooster is a member ol Delta Sigma Rho, National honorary ha- temity for debaters ol three years' experience. DEBATE SEMINAR is the class from which all the inter- collegiate debaters are selected. First row: Al Klivington, Stan Coates. Dot Heed. Ginny Lee. Second row: Walter Krumm, Bob West. Iim Baird. Herb Rogers. Back row: Mr. Miller. Dave Neely. The greatest incentive of the year is the thought of Winning a Fackler Medal and a trip to Washington D. C. The three debaters to Win these honors this year were Dick Wallace, Bob Ricksecker, and Stan Coates. As in the past, first-year debaters received for- ensic rnedals. Wooster is affiliated with Delta Sigma Rho, the national speech fraternity. Mr. Miller chose Stan Coates and Al Klivington to go with him to Chicago during spring va- cation to represent Wooster in the second Delta Sigma Rho Student Congress. 46 FRESHMAN DEBATE club presidents were Bob Thomas first semester. and Ken Hovanic. second.

He has always been active in local politics-at present is a member of the local school board. He has published a textbook in argumentation and debate, and has written articles lor numerous ioumals. Wooster oratory proved its worth when Jirn Baird and Joan Campbell won the state inter- collegiate contests for men and Wornen. This is the first time that Wooster has ever Won both the rnen's and Wornen's championships. Orators from twelve schools cornpeted. When this was Written, Herb Rogers Was preparing to duplicate these championships in the Civic League Contest, and Bob Ricksecker in the state Peace Oration contest. Tell Me Why To the uninitiated, the physics laboratory might prove a confusing place. Balances, dy- namos, gadgets of all kinds fill the room. Yet to the physics student, the lab is a familiar Workroom Where he, under the guidance of department head Prof. William Westhafer and Dr. Earl W. Ford, seek and usually find the solution to troublesome laboratory problems. Experiments Inspire Interest Some sixteen courses are scheduled and in each of these frequent experiments lend vital- ity to lectures. Extensive equipment, like the cosmic ray counter, a recent department ac- quisition, makes possible the wide range of experiments. This device measures cosmic ra- diation, a light is flashed and a clicking sound made Whenever a certain quantity passes into the machine. The most popular course is the general in- troductory course taught by Dean Westhafer in a fast-moving, Witty manner. The course is always full. The physics club is an active body of phy- sics enthusiasts Who gather in their spare time to Work more extensively than is possible in regular physics courses. Here, again, experi- ments are the main forte. THE EXPERIMENTAL METHOD is illustrated by Dr. Earl W. Ford, who is adiusting a delicate trial balance. Doc Ford's qeniality is known to classes and to all Kenardenites. As head-resident he suliers from exposure to all sorts of Kenarden pranks.

The art department maintains a lending library from which subscribers can obtain copies of masterpieces tor personal use. Peck's Bad Boys Studios are always fascinating. There is a different atmosphere in a studio which dis- tinguishes it from an ordinary classroom. Special lighting devices for colored light or stronger everyday light are at hand for any special kind of problem assigned in class. Easels and drawing boards are very much in evidence. Generally, outside work from out- side classes is displayed on the large bulletin board. Variety of Courses for Artists However, the truest and most typical pic- ture of the studio is when people are working in it. Mr. Gates teaches the life-drawing class which draws human anatomy. Then there are painting classes, both in oil and water color, and an elementary theory and practice of art course. Just below the studio, Assistant Prof. Edward Peck, head of the department, 'lectures on famous painters and paintings. Architecture and architects are not left out, for there is a survey of sculpture course on the schedule. Other features of the department are the various exhibitions which come to Taylor during the year. Among the notable ones this year were the water colors of Frank Wilcox and Norman Daly and the wood carvings of John Rood, Further, no year is complete without a trip of the combined art classes to the Cleveland Museum. And finally the art lending library of a fine and varied selection of reproductions of paintings is open not only to art students but to the college at large. If A Had Four Apples . . When you hear mathematicians talking about doughnuts or pin you are hearing serious technical discussion, not the latest research items of the culinary clan. For ex- ample one could have heard Mr. Melchior Fobes chatting amiably about the connectivity and sidedness of the torus or topological doughnut at a fall meeting of the math club, or Dr. Loyal F. Ollmann expounding on the transcendence of pi, or the ratio of the cir- cumference of a circle to its diameter. Further doubts would have been raised in your mind as to the Wooster mathematicians rationality, and incidentally his moral fiber left: ACTING HEAD ot the math department is Prof. Charles O. Williamson. Always individual, Prof. Williamson fills his classes with variety: frequently he de- viates from math to philosophy. A favorite custom of his is passing out candy and gum to the last classes before a vacation. right: NEWCOMERS to Wooster's mathematical circles iand trianglesl are Assistant Prof. Ollmcmn and Instructor Fobes. They have aided materially in a move too, had the discussions of dice rolling and gamblers' chances in Professor Williamson's higher algebra class been overheard by inno- cent neophytes, and an ominous chord of stark horror would have been struck in all timid hearts at the mention of bomb trajec- tories in Ollmann's differential equations course. We would be making our hasty exit for sure, muttering unkind things about Mr. Fobes after seeing him dash off the proof that one equals two, as he did in a beginning calculus course last semester! Form National Honorary But the conniving calculators Were up to something else this year besides necromantic devilry. They Went steady with a national mathematics honorary, proudly calling them- selves the Beta chapter of Kappa Mu Epsilon, bought themselves pins, and acquired a scholarly esprit de corp which bids fair to put them, spiritually at least, in the company of the Einsteins, the Nevvtons, and the Jones'. to raise math department standards.

Used in connection with the descriptive astronomy course it is a 5 inch obiective refracting telescope. 49 Only Rubes Bust Tubes Equipment: Six labs complete- ly stocked, two lecture rooms, one chemical library, three pro- fessors, 230 students. Procedure: Select the general chemistry course of Dr. Kieffer or Dr. Chittum. Add a few lab hours spent in calculation of molecular weights. Then heat with the qualitative analysis course, instructed by Dr. Grady, department head. To this unsaturated solution now add equal amounts of quantitative analysis, or- ganic chemistry, chemistry of foods, and chemical principles. Bring the solution to correct acidity with physical chemistry. Conclusions: An elixir guaranteed to pro- duce chemical wisdom. As proof of the results, there is the chemistry club, known officially as a Student Affiliate Chapter of the American Chemical Society. There are only three such clubs in Ohio schools. Membership Severance Hall, the chemistry building. is limited to the highest twenty-five juniors and seniors. Chem Grads Distinguish Selves As additional proof of the potency of the elixir, note the activities of last year's majors: sixteen in graduate school, twelve in medical school, three studying lab technology, two in chemical labs, one teaching in high school, and one girl married.

He plans to publish several books on the geology of the south, southwestern, and western parts of North America as a result of these studies. Carrying on With a double amount of teaching, Mr. Moke did a splendid job. And as if he hadn't PEDAGOGICAL GEOLOGISTS Dr. Karl VerSteeg and Instructor Charles B. Moke confer on departmental affairs.

Red, the jolly janitor, has just unlocked the door and is now sweeping off the long, gray tables with a flourish of the duster. A few early students trickle in, find their microscopes and then scrutinize their lab manual with per- turbed faces. Today's lesson is a study of plant stems. During the first part of the hour Miss Coyle explains the construction of the stem with the aid of diagrams and charts. Now it is the student's chance. Hopefully he turns to the microscope and begins to draw the magnified image. Perhaps as he works he is thinking of the field trips to Funk's Hollow or of the unusual plants at the experi- mental station which he visited. Tabby Takes Beating from Biologists The botany class is now replaced by stu- dents parading by carrying mummified bodies on a tray. With experiences of wrestling with dogiish and alligators to their credit these students are now preparing for their major operation-their subject, a smelly, scrawny, BIOLOGISTS study under Dr. Elizabeth E. Coyle, Dr. Warren P. Spencer, and department head Dr. Ralph V. Bangham. Miss Coyle is a specialist on floral life. Professor Banqham is cm authority on the parasites of fresh water fish.

He has published many articles and won several prizes given by research foundations. skinned cat. The late afternoon sun finds still another class bending over specimens. A jab here, a thrust there and off comes the poor frog's leg. Wrinkled noses and teary eyes show that these Zoology students are just embarking upon their Hrst dissection. Perhaps when they have reached their final triumph on the dogfish, the smell of formaldehyde will no longer daunt them. Scene H, the dim basement of Scovel Hall. In one room filled with milk bottles neatly plugged with cotton, compound microscopes and watch glasses, students get experience in observing hereditary problems in Dr. Spen- cer's fruit flies. At the other end of the hall, future embryologists under Dr. Bangham study the developmental stages of a child. Here parasitecology classes also make germ cultures while histology classes prepare slides of Amphiuma blood cells. Throughout the year this dark place holds attraction for many stu- dents working from dawn until Red's call of all out. BAD-SMELLING dogfish are used for practice in Dr. Bangham's anatomy lab. Mimi Hole. braving the smell. makes her dissection skillfully. Besides doq- fish, anatomists cut up cats, necturus, and alligators. Cats are obtained from near-by farmers. They are treated for preservation by Dr. Bangharn's assistants. But all other specimens the department orders from biological store houses. HOME to Prof. and Mrs. Neill Rowe, the Conservatory ot Music is cr source of knowledge to the approximately 175 Wooster students who pursue any of the college's thirty music courses. The Conservatory is a large brick building, a Victorian mansion. Mr. and Mrs. Rowe live on the second iloor of the Conserve. For practice, music students turn to a frame building adiacent to the Con- servatory. Here, two floors are divided into many small practice rooms where novices may pound away in NUCLEUS OF THE MUSIC ROOM is the Capehart recording instrument. Student- worker lean White is operating the instrument. Most popular of the 1,500 recordings is George Gershwin's Rhap- sody in Blue. solitude. .l lrlear Music hath charms to sooth the savage breast, so the old saying goes. But the loyal slaves of music who Walk the short half mile dovvn to the conserve and the long half mile up from the conserve three or four times each day will vow that it also hath charms to keep a slender vvaistline. Nevertheless, this specie of the finer art, as presented at Wooster, has had enough appeal to attract twenty-seven students as majors in music or public school music. There are about the same number of students taking a minor. A Wide variety of private instrumental lessons, plus vocal les- sons, has proved a drawing card for a surpris- ingly large number of the proletariat B.A.'s. GLEE CLUB SUPERVISORS Mr. William C. DeVeny and Miss Eve Roine Rich- mond look over a new number. Besides the glee clubs, the two take care of all the vocal instruction done at the con- servatory.

Besides being skillful at foils, she has assisted in class administration, was invalu- able in planning this year's unprecedented second Frosh mixer. lower right: George Mulder, as treasurer, attends to Frosh accounts. He is perhaps more adept at music- making than at accounting, however. He plays bass fiddle and is a piano soloist for the Wooster Symphony Orchestra. 60 A Year with the Freshmen A freshman remembers-The first item on the white schedule card stands in bold type, Freshman Mixer in the Gym. When the freshmen were thor- oughly mixed, salted and spiced, each fellow escorted his girl of the evening back to her dorm . . . Next on the list appears the Big Four Reception. Soft music and colored streamers added to the excitement of formally meeting the faculty and activity leaders of the campus. Then, too, there was the anticipation of the blind date which the thoughtful big sister or brother has procured. Other items on the card are blurred into the background. However, the White card by no means contains the complete list of remembrances. Who can forget that morning when the sophomores so violently dragged the unsuspecting freshmen into the five o'clock mist? Many muscles were sore from running until legs ache and exercising until some students could hardly bend . . . Sophomore court then held sway. Result-pigtailed girls and bashful orators. During the second semester, ingenious freshmen planned another mixer, a novel idea and a great success. The girls formed the stag line. And so With activities like these the year passed on, gli.. fho,jalL LIB STEPS are a popular meeting place for stags as well as dates. Frosh leamed that outside of their orientation course.

Miss Ruth Westlund is head resident. Lower left: COLONIAL is only one block from the campus. Nineteen irosh and counselor Erdine Maxwell live there. Mrs. Charles Ohler is house mother. Lower middle: MILLER MANOR is the property of the college. The twenty-one first-year girls must walk a half-mile to get to the campus. The girls are under the guid- ance of counselor Martha Wylie and house mother Mrs. Minnie Rankin. Lower right: MONYERS with Whites is the smallest off campus home. Only eight places are afforded and these are not always filled. Six live there now. Mrs. Archie Monyer is house mother. 65 l 3 V li gf P i f r A Day with the Sophomores May we present those singular symbols of suppressed superiority, the sophomores! Lest you be misled, kind reader, we hasten to in- form you that we didn't arrive at this state via the nobody-to-somebody-in-two-easy- semesters method. Have you ever heard a bewildered freshman in the early pangs of a college education ask with that lost puppy expression in his eyes, What makes a fresh- Q77 man green. We suffered that lost puppy complex some months ago ourselves and remember keenly how it feels to hear a bit- ing, Hey, freshman, keep off the grassf' Now that we've emerged on the second stratum of collegiate life and are known in polite society Soph head man is Harry Eicher. An athlete. prexy Eicher is an outstanding varsity football and basketball player. His biggest class iob was overseeing the Sophomore Prom: he held class meetings, signed contracts, appointed committees. Vice-president Iohn Clay is adroit at class affairs and in iootball. Pig-skin addicts loolc to his passing ability as a real asset to future Wooster elevens. Iohn was named Wooster's typical boy in the Index poll ot this year. Secretary Betty Hewitt lends a tem- inine touch to the Sophomore cabinet. Her political ability has been recog- nized by the college band which em- ploys her as flag-bearer. Athletics might appear to be a class requisite: Betty. pictured in tennis togs, plays a good game. Tall, slim lack Muxworthy possesses the grace necessary to carry out the functions of class treasurer. Like other Soph otiicers. he is athletic. A pole- vaulter. he last year captained the Frosh track team. 66 as sophomores, the answer to the enigma is plain. The class of '43 is leaving its mark, foot- prints and dirty finger marks, in many fields of endeavor, in athletics, music, scholarship, and art. Feeling the urge to put the sopho- mores on the map socially, president Harry Eicher with treasurer J ack Muxworthy pass- ing the hat, collected class dues to finance the sophomore prom. Bea Lockwood and Mildred Martin planned the clever pirate theme in a South Sea setting. John Clay was president Eicher's first mate and Bette Hewitt served the class as secretary throughout the year. above: HOLDEN HALL cxi dawn.

President lim Bean displays executive talents in many fields. Besides guiding Iunior class destinies. he is headwcxiter- elect of Holden dining rooms. Likewise a thespian, he has appeared in many college theatrical productions. Iunior class secretary. Cecilia Retzler, is an efficient organizer. A character player in college dramatic productions, she plays a lead role in class affairs. Understudy to the Iunior president is vice-prexy. Bob Dunlap. Bob is also a junior representative on the Senate. He takes his biology seriously, plans to enter medical school alter graduation. Bob Meese, shown strapping on pilot's helmet, enioys flying more than account- ing demanded by his treasurer's iob. Academically, however. he keeps his nose close to statistical grindstone, majors in economics. Leisure Time with the Juniors The class of '42 continued the cooperation it showed last year, and had another successful prom. All juniors shelled out their fifty- cent pieces for dues, and these dues plus one dollar apiece for pro- grams enabled the class to bring a snappy new band, Col. Manny Prager, from Columbus, to the campus. ln addition to breaking tra- dition by having a surplus in the treasury, the class became more proletarian by discarding the stiff and formal Junior Prom and substituting the unconventional J Hop. Tradition, if there was any left by this time, was further shattered by moving the dance back to the fall for the dual purpose of taking one dance out of the prom- flooded spring months, and enjoying it in the drought period of early fall. I Hop Has Airplane Theme Red, White and blue streamers gave a canopy effect the entire length of the gym, While a map on the West Wall proved that all roads lead to Wooster, and on the east Wall the toy balloon-airplanes spelled out J Hop with their sky-writing. The Juniors decided it was time to get to Work on their majors, and proved their seriousness by leading all other classes on the honor roll. Wooster students fill leisure time with a variety of activities. 1 re- Shack and Grill are places Where students most frequent y cong gateg athletics is the chief single activity. But Woosterites escape boredom in a number of other Ways. In the following pages, an attempt is made to picture these ' s modes of diversion. The student is shown as he relaxes variou formally and informally from the rigors of the curriculum, as he changes from the staid to the spontaneous . . . from sport clothes to soup and fish.

Home-game day means a gener- al exodus to the stadium or gym, depending on the season. An av- erage of 520 students attend bas- ketball games. At other times, Wooster's two downtown theaters are popularg by general preference college students go to the Wooster Theater. Less sophisticated, the Wayne Theater is laughingly called The Shooting Gallery, because of the cowboy-Indian nature of its films. For informal- ity and economy, collegians pre- fer the balcony, where an air of levity reigns. 83 - x 7 Sig' xx 9 671 x Q , .., . 3011.

For years the two sexes have been racing with each other for supremacy. Now they have settled down to neck and neck. The big secret at Woo of popularity and being in on the fun is to go steady, maybe not for long, maybe forever. How It's Done It starts with getting acquainted-dating, they call it. An all-college dance- Isn't the floor slippery tonight! That's not it. I just had my shoes shinedf' section picnicsg perhaps a rendezvous at Schine's, looking lamely over a coke afterward at the high-school small-fry jittering on Stype's dance floor. Who knows, you might even go cycling, instead of the usual Sunday afternoon walk. I .X- tml This is an cxrlist's sketch of the front walk of Holden Hall near sign-in time. And one fine day the two of you blossom out in church, with new clothes, a self-conscious twitching, and audible whisperings as the news travels from transept to peanut heaven. Going steady is then made official when What's-His-Name passes out cigars and Whosit donates dum-dums to fellow inmates. Upper left: WATCHING THE DANCE-Francis Browne.

The average stud- ent finds the remainder of his time free, and much of it he spends in recreation in the dormitory. A favorite diversion is the bull session. Subjects for discussion range from the most profound to the most trivial, from aesthetics to athletics. Card-playing, particu- larly bridge and poker, likewise finds favor. Ht!!-raising, the completely destructive side of dorm life, has yielded somewhat within the dormitory to administrative efforts at civilization. Not recently has there been a flare-up to compare with the automobile-tire fumigation of Kenarden in 1938. Four students, later forcibly homeward bound, sent smoke pouring through two sections, which joined to pay hundred dollar fines. Nor has there this year been a flood like that of 1935, when fresh- men filled Douglass Hall lounge with water from an appropriated fire hose. Dean Offers Free Ice Cream As administrative pressure has increased, escapaders have ex- panded activity from dorms into new fields where supervision is less rigid. Last fall, pranksters stunned ultra-Republican Professor VerSteeg who found a picture of Democratic candidate Roosevelt displayed on a classroom map. Halloween night, students went farther afield, moving in on the Wooster theatre. After the show, however, Dean Bruere drew the fangs of the hell-raise which was brewing. He stepped before the student juggernaut and offered ice cream cones to all who would withdraw. Hungry hell-raisers Hled after the Dean to Isaly's ice cream parlor. upper left: HELLO!

Bad weather is good weather for these refreshment-dealing estab- lishments, for sunny skies mean students turn to outdoor gathering places as Kauke quad or library steps. The Shack is the older of the two. A frame building, it was built in 1910 by students as a confectionery, and has been run by its pres- ent owner, dubbed Bill Shack, ever since. Seaboyer's Grill, on the other hand, was built but seven years ago to fill the need for an additional hang-out. More modern, it is Upper left: BREAKFAST AT THE SHACK-Ruth Warnock, Ruth Hile- man, Iocelyn Donaldson, Virginia Wiizler. Lower left: LUCKY STRIKES PLEASE-Dick Davies, Darrell Follett, Pickles Seaboyer. jinfuz, mwrmc, spacious, better planned. Ninety-two can find seats to fifty-two in the Shack. A nickelodeon juke-box, where students spend a nickel to hear favorite recordings, and pinball machines are extremely popular. Use is being made of the hang-outs, of late, as a study room for students who prefer the cos- mopolitan noise of the coke-den to the tranf quility of the library. As college hang-outs, Shack and Grill per- form a great service. Places for refreshments, they are more importantly places to relax and blow off steam, places where students can forget for a time the semester's worries.

Jean Ann makes their hearts beat faster in her black full- skirted formal. Dottie looks glamorous with a green chiffon. Grayce appears in a sophisti- cated black velvet dress, but don't let it fool you, for the same dress plus a lace blouse produces a demure but delectable picture. Saturday Even in a studious mood the girls can't forget to look smart for that roving masculine approval. Ann fat rightl joins the Scots with her clan plaid wool kilt complete to the large Scotch pin. Lois' fire-drill-red jerkin worn over a long sleeved blouse proves fashionable as well as eye-catching. Babs adds local color with a red wool jersey dress that has a pleated skirt. Classic campus clothes find a model in Peg who sports a comfortable sweater and skirt outfit. Out on the golf course Cpage 95, upper leftj quite up to par in their saddle shoes, skirts, and sweaters the girls coax the ball around the green. Saturday afternoon brings a football game, and the girls are off to cheer their heroes. Peg fpage 95, upper rightj keeps warm in a dark red coat topped with a large fur collar. Theo takes the game in her stride in a Harris Tweed while Frannie sticks to a classic camels hair coat. Victory Dance Tonight Girls discard cardigans and saddle shoes for date dresses and heels. Margaret Cpage 95, lower leftj looks stunning in her light blue rabbits hair dress while Lois holds her own in a heather wool jersey with gilt buttons. Al- though her soft cuddly Wool dress has deep pockets in the Dutch skirt, Virginia manages to keep her hands at her side.

A Last Minute with the Seniors It was only four short years from purple- crested freshmen to mortar-board seniors. In the fall of 1937, we were hailed as the smart- est, biggest, and most promising crop of freshmen ever seen. We soon became full- fledged Woosterites versed in the ways of class, church, chapel, and campus. Memories Are Vivid In those four short years we moved by a series of regular spurts from the back row of the chapel to the front row. We saw the old power plant and the water tower, a favorite target for the freshman class numerals, bite the dust. We watched the reclamation project on the deserted tract of land east of Babcock finally fashioned into a first-class golf course -L. C. Boles' dream come true. We remember the time girls' skirts were just above the ankles and that notorious day when an upperclass girl was sentenced to a week's suspension for smoking in the Grill. And how we cheered when the band marched down the field decked not in kilts but in life- less, black uniforms. Turning to the financial field, we remember when tuition was only 3275. We seniors also become memories as We fade into the background and the limelight falls on new classes.

The only reason Dick didn't eam more than twelve awards at Wooster was because he couldn't work in more than football. basketball. track, and golf in one school year. He was captain of the football eleven. In bas- ketball he was named with Hole and Grenert on the all-star conference team. Coach Iohn Marion Swiqarl Rubbing tables-deflated pigskins-yards of tape-oil of wintergreen-soggy atmos- phere. This was the fitting environment in which Coach Swigart reminisced on his first season as head tutor of the Scot gridders. As- suming the reins Coach Boles relinquished in '39, Swigart guided the football lads last aut- umn through a schedule studded with rugged Conference foes to four wins, three losses and a tie. Swigart Makes Changes Although a protege of his predecessor, Johnny made a few slight modifications in his system. He employed a short kick forma- tion with emphasis on timing and rhythm. Drilled well in fundamentals, the 1940 Scot machine was geared to high speed with decep- tion behind the line of scrimmage a major factor. Asked for a general statement on his thoughts during his first campaign, the ag- gressive young mentor hesitated, and then rambled through his mental diary as if the tussles had taken place yesterday. Recalls Games Now take that first game, he started. The size and number of those big Manchester fel- lows should have worried me, but I knew that our boys had fortitude and felt fairly confi- dent. For an opening battle, Wooster was good. We won that one 13-7. Over at Gettysburg our. boys had an excep- tionally good defense, but a heavy dose of stagefright. Then, too, we thought they would be much better than they really showed which probably slowed us down somewhat. They beat us 6-0. H, Koach, Hcvicwn, Ure As Told by Johnny Svvigart to Jim Cannell I was very proud of our gang in the Case battle at Cleveland. It was here in particular, that we needed reserve strength. Those Rough Riders were really tough. They deserved to win and they did, 7-0. You'll probably remember for a long time that snowstorm we played in at Mount Union and our decisive win, 24-0. Scots Fish for Muskies I don't know what it was but we were really set for Muskingum on Homecoming Day. The boys practised viciously all week to the tune of Kate's 'I gotta score to settle with these guys' The Muskies may have been over- confident, but We were sparked to a high pitch. After getting a 7-3 lead we were able to stave off their scoring threats. 'tDenison was the hardest charging eleven we met all year. All we deserved was the 7-7 tie we got. Bowling Green-what a nightmare! Tak- ing into consideration all the assignments we muffed plus Brudzinski-Ugh! They outscor- ed us 26-14. When we came down to the Oberlin game, the usual weather conditions prevailed. Bit- terly cold-windy-snowing-but we dumped 'em, 14-0, and that's what counts. Rosy Outlook for '41 What will we do in till? Well, if all the boys can come back, we'll have better reserve strength, and that's something we lacked last season. We are fortunate that the new power is coming into the line where we need it most. Back in the early twenties Coach Swigart distinguished himself by his natural football ability, team play, and leadership while roam- ing the local gridiron. Today he has added to this foundation a wealth of coaching exper- ience which we hope will be reflected in the type of teams that represent Wooster in the future. 109 BACKFIELD BALL-TOTERS Kid Kate, Harry Ditch, and Rich Sproul. in single wing back formation, await the snap irom center. Heavier than last year, the Wooster backiield was still light. In early-season play, the team abandoned the huddle, returned to it later as more effective. IN THE LOCKER ROOM Iohn Healy, Marv Evans, and Chuck Colwell put on battle array. Built to absorb the shocks ol this down-to-earth sport, Wooster football equipment is heavy: each man wears fifteen pounds of it.

But over-contidence and bad breaks caught up with them a couple of times. After three years of domination, they lost t.he Ohio Conference title to Mount Union. For their nineteen games they averaged fifty- three points, their opponents thirty-tive. 3 . . . ,, , -rP 'fv P qw, t I On floor: Coach Hole, Dick Eicher, lim Black- wood, Frank Grenert, Bob Sanbom, Earl Ziegler, Dick Crandall.

Coach Earnest Maine Hole Basketball being the kind of game that it is, a season's record of 15 Wins and 4 losses is very good and much above the average. Wooster had a good team again this year, one that was potentially the strongest of several tough aggregations of the last six years. The nucleus, of course, was the three seniors, Grenert, Gernert, and Hole, the three boys who have been the backbone of the teams that set a record of 36 straight Wins in the Gerneri Tries to Block cz Shot lov 011211, fha Umm By Couch Mose Hole Ohio Conference. With Kate, a spark plug vet- eran and Sproull and Eicher from the soph- omore class, it seemed as though We could hardly miss having the same kind of perform- ance that had marked the previous seasons. However, there are physical and psychologi- cal factors that enter into every situation, and We lost three games that under other cir- cumstances could just as Well have been Wins. Team Best Ever at Times From the end of the first semester until af- ter the Mount game, this team was superior to even the great teams of 1938, 1939, and 1940. We built up gradually after two unexpected losses, to an organization that functioned ex- ceptionally Well on defense and could score with confidence and precision. Big Red Outreaches cr Mouni Player And we built up to a nice climax for our game with Mount Union, a contest in which, as in 1931, we made very few errors. But the anti-climax was now on. After mediocre per- formances against Wittenberg and Kenyon, we ended up with a futile barrage of shots that just would not go in, and lost to an enthused and strong Muskingum team. They wanted to win much more than we did. Chances Hurt by Pressure. Injuries Analyzing some of our failures, I would list first the pres- sure of too many victories in the past, a constant tightening up trying to maintain a meaningless undefeated record. Another thing that hurt in the beginning was the injury to Kate's knee, which did not allow him to be of full value until half the sea- son was gone. A third feature was our failure to develop a good safety man who could score from well out on the floor, as Smith did so nicely a year ago. Grenert had to play safety, and it handicapped our playing, keeping him from being on offense and scoring as he had in the past. Red played a great game knocking down the other fellow's shots and retrieving the ball off the bankboard, but we could also have used him farther down the floor on offense. We cannot afford to cry over games lost or alleged championships that slip away from us. The im- portant thing in our basketball competition is to present a rugged opposition to all opponents and to Win when we can. Our schedule calls for us to play a home and home game with all our opponents in alternate years. When you play on the other fellow's court, before his home crowd, different lights, bankboards, baskets, nets, in fact with everything not quite the same, then to maintain a perfect record is difficult. A review of college records will reveal that all teams do much better at home and that upsets occur frequently, with the visitor usually on the low side of the score. Three Make All-Ohio So we have no regrets, but remem- ber with pleasure the fine games we had with Duquesne, Miami, Ohio Wes- leyan, Otterbein, Bowling Green, Denison, Case, Mount Union, Muskin- gum, and many others. The season's finale, the honorary teams picked by newspaper syndicates, found Hole, Gernert and Grenert on all-Ohio Con- ference tearns, a fitting tribute to three fine boys. 6 ALL-OHIO CONFERENCE tor- ward Pudqe Hole is the answer to a basketball coach's prayer-a good team man, an excellent long shot, an accurate short shot, a good quard, a deceptive ball handler. He is the second player in Wooster's history to score over 600 points in his three years-Hole totaled 611. Pudge was captain of this year's quintet. Top: Dick Eicher, Harry Eicher. Dick Gemert.

They lost three of these meets, but the score in two of the defeats was 66-65. At Bowling Green on May 25, Wooster did the unusual thing of finishing eighth in the Big Six meet! Returning lettermen last year were Gern- ert, javeling Walline and Plessinger, distances, Sadler, broad jump, 440, and sprintsg Powers, half-mile and mile, Don Campbell, field events, and captain Glen Griebel, hurdles. But it took sophomore Art Basham to steal the show. Basham, who didn't return to school this year, starred in the 100, 220, broad jump and high jump. Other point-winners for the Scots were Chuck Suttles in field events, Les Thomas, 880, Hal Streeper, dashes, J im Camp- bell, field events, and Alex Drysdale, 440. With the exception of Don Campbell, Griebel, CROSS COUNTRY at Wooster is a thing ot the past. This, Coach Carl Munson decreed at the conclusion of the season last tall. His reasons: few other col- leges have teams making it hard to till a schedule: at the same time there is not much interest in the sport tor only a few fellows come out every year. Sitting: Paul Fisher, Paul Reis, lim Donaldson, Dan Miles, Kneeling: Paul Totten, Coach Munson, Luke Hall. TRACK MEN began practice in February with cal- isthenics and light running drills.

Their ranks were augmented by sophomores John Geb- hardt, Dick Horton, Jack Muxworthy, Norm Wiebusch, Dan Cordova, and Luther Hall. Cross country again suffered a winless year in 1940, despite the efforts of the five letter- men, Hall, Totten, Reis, Donaldson, and Miles. However, cross-countrymen only run because they love to run, and the season couldn't help but be successful from that standpoint. - 1940 Track - 1941 woostef va Cross Country Wooster 65 Musking. .SB Wooster 19: Case .. ..

Their endeavors equaled eight victories, two defeats, and a fourth in the in- tercollegiate meet at Columbus. Lettermen George Gould, Dick Gernert, and Pudge Hole formed the nucleus of the team. The number four man was found in Karl Kate of the ath- letic Kates. Racqueteers Net Four Victories A glance at the 1940 tennis records isn't too happy a sight, but the figures belie the facts. For example, two of the seven meets the Scots lost were determined by the final match which could have gone either Way. Wayne Lykes in particular played Well all year but he had opponents like Don MacNeill of Kenyon. Tough breaks and bad luck played a destructive role, but spectators had their fill of thrilling tennis regardless. 1940 Golf Wooster 8 W: Denison ....... 7 V2 Wooster 15 : Kent ..... 1 Wooster BW: Kenyon .... 7M Wooster SW: Mt.

A. divided itself at the beginning of the year into a group for upperclassmen and one for freshmen. They held a series of orientation meetings each Wednesday evening in Douglass. Some of the topics for discussion were varsity and in- tramural sports, student publications, studies, dramatics, and the Kenarden system: leaders were faculty members and the heads of the upperclass Y. M. C. A. Other programs were joint meetings with the Y. W. C. A. and cider and doughnut get-to-gethers. In March the Y. M. played host to speakers Gayle Lathrop, area student secretary of the Y. M. C. A. and former director of admissions at the college. Y. W- C. A- Y. W. c. A. divided its members this year into interest groups, these groups held their own meetings and at various times took charge of the Y. W. meetings. Fall activities of the Y. W. were sistering the freshman girls, taking charge of the Red Cross drive for sweaters, and holding the col- orful Pan-American Fiesta. At Christmas time the girls gave a party for under privi- leged children, Cpicture on page 101 held their own special Y. W. program, and observed their custom of Hanging the Greens. A survey of summer positions, work in the Y. W. C. A. teahouse, and trips to the Wooster children's home concluded their very busy year. World Fellowship World Fellowship returned from the Big Four Re- treat last fall planning to concentrate their program on t'What we believe and what weire going to do about it. Consequently, each Sunday morning at nine o'clock Kauke Lounge was the scene of a lively discussion or lecture. Speakers during the year included Dr. McDowell from Persia and Dr. John R. Williams of the First Presbyterian Church of Wooster. They found an audience eager for new opinions and fond of long discussions. Outside of their regular meetings World Fel- lowship sent members of the groups to the churches around Wooster in a series of pre- sentations of the lives of various missionaries. S. Evening Forum Sunday Evening Forum set about to present to its student members as brilliant a collection of speakers as it could entice to The Campus. In the galaxy were the Rev. John R. Williams, the Rev. Douglass Horton, Mrs. F. N. Jessup, missionary from Persia, Dr. Jesse Baird, and 130 Mr. Whiting Williams of the Public Relations Council of Cleveland. Intermingled with these were speeches by various of the faculty mem- bers, at an occasional program of music or poetry. Upholding its reputation of previous years, Sunday Evening Forum energetically took the lead in the activities and programs of the Big Four organization on the campus.

Meeting each Sunday afternoon, they delved into the problems of ministerial and missionary careers, and ventured eagerly into theological discussions. The first Week in December Was Prayer Week, the Big Four brought Dr. Paul C. Johnston to the campus for chapel talks and evening services. His main theme for the Week was Developing a Christian Philosophy of Life. ln the freshman dorms upperclass counsellors led fellowship group meetings each evening. Most of the sections and all of the girls' dorms invited Dr. Johnston to lead them in a bull session for a couple of hours on one of his nights here. Guest lvlinisters Pre-arch Throughout the year guest ministers came to Westminster pulpit to speak to the students and outside congregation. Dr. Douglass Hor- ton in November, The Reverend Jesse Halsey in January, Dr. Jesse Baird in February, and Dr. Harry Cotton in March preached the Sunday morning sermons. On other Weeks Dr. Douglass or Dr. Wishart drew the students to the chapel, which is truly the heart of Wooster. Seated: ixl'T'B H1111 : 5 Men's Self Government is handled by ten section heads who meet with their president and Dean Bruere in order to determine student policies. Meetings are informal. The MSGA head must be at the pulse of student activity, for around him hinge all phases of male stu- dent life. He is elected by student vote in what is the most-contested campaign of the year. Vote-swapping, log rolling and all the intrigue of a national election are employed. Women's Self Government revolves around two boards, administrative and judicial. The first, composed of several faculty members and elected student repre- sentatives, legislates and formulates rules for vvomen's guidance. The judicial board enforces administrative regulations with penalties of privilege restrictions or suspension. 1 'I - 1 . r 'T-me 7l3'f:ir,1:we Luisxv Ui sy.

Ballots are collected by senators who act as monitors at the doors. Taken to the senate room, the votes are counted in the presence ol witnesses. Winners are announced in the dining rooms. In this picture senator Louise Stewart Cleitl and Bill Leievre triqhtl are collecting ballots. HOMECOMING DAY is one event which the senate collaborates with Iohnny Miller's alumni office in plan- ning. Prizes are awarded to the dormitories which arrange the cleverest displays. Warburton was the winner among the men's dorms with this display pictured. Holden won among the women's houses. CA picture of the Holden idea will be found on page 9.1 catalogue of senate activities. The task is hopeless, the jobs are innumerable. For in- stance, the senate runs the frosh-soph rush, Migration Day, Dad's Day, and the biggest affairs of the year, the Gum Shoe Hop, and Color Day. Yes, all that, and more besides. Part of their job is to fling all-college dances, put up the decorations, pay the orchestra, and take the decorations down again.. Another fmore ticklishj part of their job is to arrange a calendar for private dances, where, when, and how often they are to be held. Whatever is a student-body-as-a-whole activity also falls into the senate's lap. But aside from their major jobs there are petty duties ad infinitum. Senators are busy from September until J une. Equal Representation Members of the senate are elected from the student body, four from each class. The offi- cers this year were Jim Blackwood, president, Gale Weaner, treasurer, Lois Boop and Betty Lockwood, secretaries. Each new senate comes into office with much enthusiasm and little experience, each old senate totters out of office, older, sadder, and wiser men and women. V JA F ,FS-'ij fx,--1 we is Qing?

All male students may join sections and sing in serenades. Students with pleasing voices may join Prof. Rowe's choir. Students with exceptional voices may become members of Mr. DeVeny's glee club or Miss Richmond's women's chorus. For the instrumental musi- cian, there is the possibility of playing in Mr. Parmelee's Wooster symphony, or Mr. Davis' colorful kiltie band. Finally, the most dis- tinguished musicians may be elected to Fort- nightly, an exclusive organization of twenty- four men and women who entertain each other at semi-weekly meetings with musical offerings. Let's take the groups one by one. Fortrxiqhtly Fortnightly is that rare organization, a club which successfully combines a social good time with a more serious purpose. That it has retained its original purpose for so many years is a tribute to the leadership of Mr. and Mrs. Rowe. lts membership consists of twelve men and twelve women chosen for their interest in music and their congeniality. The meetings are informal and prove to be a bright spot on the social calendar. FORTNIGHTLY is invitational for twelve Seated: Pcxrmelee, Iury, Ohki, Strcmg, ler, Sommers, Milbum, Whitmer.

Every member must appear on at least one program, and all programs are given by the members themselves. Men's Glee Club In Wooster we might well say, Join the Glee Club and see the country, because the Men's Glee Club does get around, In addition to the annual spring trek, this year to Chicago and vicinity, the boys gave concerts in Pitts- burgh and Wilkinsburg, Pennsylvania, and in Columbiana, Warren, and Youngstown, Ohio. Members of the organization gain a great deal. They run a fair chance of becom- ing interested in good music, both sacred and secular, or, if already interested, they become better acquainted with it. William C.

Officers were John Hess, president, Paul Lamale, secretary, and Paul Stewart, business man- ager. Charlie Ireland was student director, and Tom Bahler, accompanist. Women's Chorus The women's chorus planned only two con- certs this year, but they worked for perfection as always. In director Miss Richmond's opin- ion the purpose of such an organization is to provide a medium of expression for the in- dividual. lt enables people not gifted with solo voices to coordinate themselves with a group and produce something far more beau- tiful than they could produce alone. lt's also an opportunity to become familiar with the choral masterpieces of the past and to present them to others to the best of their ability. With such an aim and with all the hard work the girls put in under the direction of Miss Richmond, they could hardly keep from giving the successful concerts which everyone has come to expect. The crowded chapel seats on Girls' Glee Club day is ample proof of this. Barbara Hogg was prexy this year, and Martha Milburn was secretary. Choir Two by two they file up the aisle and around behind the pulpit singing all the while. The choir is the contribution of the student body to our church service. It is the largest extra-curricular activity on the campus, numbering over one hundred students-one- tenth of the college. Every Wednesuday and Friday afternoon Pappy Rowe directed his children in the anthem for the following Sun- day service. As if this were not enough work the choir also presented parts of Handel's Messiah at last Christmas season. At this program the chapel was filled twenty minutes before the singing started. Paul Stewart was president of the choir, Jane Robinson, secre- tary, and Jack Mellin, treasurer. Orchestra To many of you this is just 1941, but to orchestra and music federation members it is much more than that, twenty-five years ago the Wooster Symphony was formed by a small but interested group of students and towns- people. Today it is an institution celebrating its silver jubilee. During this time 567 stu- dents have been members. DIRECTOR DAN PARMELEE waves his baton, and eighty-eight of Wooster's best musicians qo into action. Symphony members practice faithfully every Wednesday night. The number which most ot the symphony like best to playis Tschaikowsky's Fifth Symphony. Twenty-nine of the orchestra are from town. THE BAND was largest in the school's history. First row: Cremeuns, Kuehner, Grover, Lambie, Hewitt. Second row: Mr. Davis, Elliott, Ginther. Browne. Irvin, Buchanan, Casserly. Third row: Morris. Gero, Mitchell. R. Lee, Gebhart, Fissell. Fourth row: Sommers, Chaney, Webster, Rugen, Buchholtz, Hamilton. Fifth row: Blank, Gibson, Layton, Park DeI.ashmutt, DeBolt. Sixth row: Weldon, Greene, Pettypool, Gillman, Chisnell, Kelly. 1 Seventh row: I. Iolinson, Eddy, Marshall, Wallace, Fisher. Eighth row: Schrader, Shafer, Kingsley, Wheelock, Alsherq, Ebright. Ninth row: Yeakley, Bonsall, V. Lewis Peters. Carson, Mershon. 40 In keeping with the patriotic spirit the orchestra gave an all-American spring con- cert. It featured music from all parts of the country including a bit of jam and jive. Usually these musicians give two concerts and one broadcast a year, but this year direc- tor Parmelee is planning a third concert for senior Week. The orchestra has a two-fold purpose, first to afford an opportunity for symphonic train- ing to those so inclined, and second, to present each year to the community symphonic con- certs of as high a standard as the membership Will permit. They have achieved their aim. Band Snappy uniforms, snappy marching, all in all a pretty snappy outit. Stanley Davis' kilted legion drew the cheers of Case, Mount Union, and Oberlin at out-of-town football games last fall. The sight of these black and gold tartans swinging down our home field has reminded many a former Woosterite of his deep feeling for the Alma Mater. When We are losing a game, the band picks up our spiritsg when Winning, it makes us more jubilant. This year the band had quality as Well as quantity-so high a quality that for the spring concert the Whole band played The Flight of the Bumble Bee. Football games, basketball games, concerts, and Color Day, they're all in the year's Workvfor these faithful band members. Q I The Footlights Lure Outward Bound It seems possible for a play to have moral significance even - ' though it's not intended for the Week of Pray- er. Witness: Outward ' Bound. What would you do if you found yourself aboard a strange ship bound for your day of judgment? Rapid stock-taking would certainly be in order. The characters in Outward Bound set about doing just that. Smoke lounge of an ocean liner, deck door wide openg vague, nondescript sky, a steward. The opening scene faintly suggested by its combination of setting and color the unreality which pervaded the entire play. The absence of a crew and the revelation of the startling fact that none of the passengers can remember their point of destination immediately spread an unnatural pall over the audience. Alice Forman as Midget, the char-woman who was obnoxious to the more sophisticated passengers, did an excellent bit of character acting. Also outstanding were Tom Prior tJim Wisej, the drunk, and Mr. Lingley HOUTWARD BOUND CHARACTERS lim Wise and Charlie Ireland are pictured in the ship's lounge where all the play's action took place. Wise played Tom Prior, a perpetual inebriate: Ireland was the steward. a suicide who traveled eternally between lite and death. iHerb Rogersj, the effusive business man with a weak heart. Family Portrait Family Portrait stands as a major ac- complishment for the year. Directed by As- sistant Arthur Kalten- born, it involved a cast of twenty-seven people, much costumery, and effective lighting and staging. k...f' Family Portrait' of- fered a conception of Jesus as seen through the eyes of the members of his own family. His brothers, who saw only the carpenter shop and the goal of community prestige, held Jesus in derision. Their friends looked on him as a fanatic. But the deep love for him ex- hibited by Mary, his mother, shone above all this and followed after him with unswerving faith. The danger of the commonplace degrading the character of Jesus was avoided because he never appeared on the stage. Still, his reality was strongly felt. A new appreciation of Jesus was gained through this unusual and forceful portrait. IN THE UPPER ROOM in FAMILY PORTRAIT are Ioan Campbell, Martha Stark, and Marilyn Johnston. The scene is tense, the night of the last supper. The three are startled by the cries ot the mob. A biblical play, Family Portrait, is a revealing drama of Christ's family. wwmw ' ..

The script submitted by Johnston Lewis for the 1941 edition of the Gum Shoe Hop met the above specifications, was pushed through a series of howling rehearsals, then staged before the surprised eyes of nearly a thousand people over the weekend of Washingtonis birthday. lt's the ultra modern aspect of old Mahoning Tech plus the ever reliable love triangle fa girl and four guysl that compose Clear as Crystalf' The local color was furnished in large part by that long-and-smooth freshman Jimmy Rowe, who played the part of Chaun- cey, the college boy who never had a date. His actions drew many laughs. Smooth look- ing feminine attraction was Virginia Lee as the Dean of Women with modern ideas. On- lookers rose from their seats in loud applause when a six-piece band rolled on stage and BERKELEY SQUARE, Kappa Theta Gamma production, received much attention from Ohio newspapers.

Original music was the work of Lois Lambie, assisted by Bill Bailey. Berkeley Square This annual Kappa Theta Gamma produc- tion had the striking feature of changing back and forth between the 20th and 18th centuries. Manipulation of Father Time made possible most unusual situations. Peter Standish, a modern young man, lived the life of two people in two different planes of time. A powerful plot was evolved from the unfore- seen difficulties of living in the past. The events of natural time were dimmed by his intense interest in what went on two centuries ago. The greatest complication arose from the event of his falling in love with Helen Petti- grew, lovely creature of the eighteenth century. Excellent amateur acting was exhibited by Paul Gruber in the role of Peter Standish and Bethel Boyer as Helen Pettigrew. Said F. W. Moore, The love scenes of Boyer and Gruber were as realistic as any of those l've seen done by professionals. THE PLOT OF SUNKlST, freshman apprentices' play, centered around Harmony Hall antics.

I In March the entire staff turned away from linotype, let down their tresses, and made merry at a kid party. ln the short space of one scribes. month, reporters and editors alike grew out of rompers into long dresses and tuxes for the formal banquet in April. The awarding of certificates and gold and silver keys for faith- ful workers marked the end of one newspaper year. The announcement of the new staff, headed by Bob Wilder, heralded the beginning of the fifty-eighth volume of the Voices. 14 EDITOR EUGENE BEEM spent an average of five hours a day for thirty weeks in putting out this Index. An editor's job, mainly organizing, is planning attractive lay-outs, arranging picture sched- ules. choosing the engraver. printer. and cover maker judicially, and finding odd jobs for everyone who wants to work. LOOKING FOR FERTILE IDEAS are Mary Ellen Park and Bobbie Robinson. The Index belongs to the National Scholastic Press Association. N.S.P.A. publishes a Yearbook Manual designed to aid confused editors. FBESHMAN STAFF members who did the most work were Marie Thede tleitl and Lois Kolmorgen. Marie was assis- tant literary editor while Lois was chief typist. BUSINESS MANAGER DON Mc- CARLEY wrote out 300 checks dur- ing the year. The total cost of the Index was about S4,000. Besides paying bills McCarley's main iob was to keep an eye on the editor's budget. McCarley worked with faculty advisor Edward Peck, who had to okay every expenditure. ODD IOBS ranging from typing to iden- tifying pictures occupied these workers from time to time. They are Barbara Haas, lane Adams, Esther Robinson, Iohn Clay, and Louise Bemesch. FIRST ASSISTANT to business manager McCarley was Herb Rogers. Herb's iob was to talk Wooster business men into buying advertising space in the Index. He did a good iob. BTW? T 'T Every picture tells a story. This has been the slogan of the 1941 staff. We've tried sincerely to give you a review of the school year - its high spots, its low points, and its mediocre places. We feel that this is the main function of an Index. Whether We've succeeded is for you to judge. To induce brilliant Writers to scribble for the Index We offered S20 in prizes for the best Write- ups used in the book. Everyone Was eligible for the contest. Prof. George Bradford of the English Department was the judge. First prize Went to Paul Gruber, Who did the Write-up on The Book Store, page 21.

Most items are filed under Miscellaneous, THESE OLD INDEXES fascinate Martha McCreight, Alice Neii, and Sue Burk- hardt. This year Mart was girls' sports editor, Alice identification editor, and Sue senior section editor. HANDBOOK AND DIRECTORY editors were Lee Culp tlettl. Gale Weaner, and Cal Dagg. Culp put out the handbook during t.he summer while Weaner and Dagg edited the directory early last fall. The Student Senate appointed all three editors. Directory The Student Directory of The College of Wooster, known to many as the book of mis- takes, is the achievement rising out of the combined efforts of two fellows, three girls, the printing company and local merchants who see in this publication . . . the fine op- portunity to place their advertisement every day for a whole year before the student body and faculty . . . This year's editors were Gale Weaner, senior editor, and Cal Dagg, junior editor, who, incidentally, did the work. There are still a few copies of this publication available at the book store. fEd. note: This was written by the senior editorj. Student Handbook The Student Handbook is a small pocket manual printed each summer to be presented to incoming freshmen. It is sponsored by the Student Senate and the W.S.G.A. and is given free to each new student upon registration. The book contains all information of the college and college rules. It is kept up to date by having it edited each summer. The editor is appointed by the Student Senate president and is responsible for all revisions. Each edi- tor tries to add new life to the book. The editing this year was done by Lee Culp with the cooperation of organization heads and the college administration. ART EDITOR Dave Alter consults with his assistant, Ruth Lamborn, in regard to planning a lay-out. Dave drew the section division pages. Each drawing took him about ten hours. Vera lrwin, Marion Carleton, Iocko Shriver, and Carolyn McGill also did art work. FACULTY EDITOR Bob Wilder and Eleanor Kister look on as Bob Edwards tries out the statfs new silent type- writer. Other new oftice equipment in- cluded a typewriting desk, a swivel chair, and a desk for the editor's feet. Over sixty students used the new equip- ment in putting out the annual. I4 4 Election Through Perfection Phi Beta Kappa At the apex of the pyramid of learning is a platform, small but lofty, labeled, For mem- bers of Phi Beta Kappa only. Here, after a four-year struggle to surmount the obstacles of a college education, certain members of the class are permitted to rest momentarily amid glory, praise, and adulation. At each side of the platform is a springboard. From these, the aspiring Phi Betes are projected into the future to come to earth they know not where. This pyramid of learning is a formidable structure. Each block has a different problem, each one requires a different approach. World War, genetics, Latin composition-these titles are written in huge letters across the stones. Your battle is half won when you choose your block and plot your method of scaling the heights. The competition is keen. You have anywhere from five to fifty comrades, de- pending on the popularity of your particular boulder.

They accept their elevation with senti- ments of secret pride, apparent modesty, in- ward surprise, and payment of admission fee.

Defying the call of society as such, Pembroke maintains its pur- pose of furthering literary interests in the college. The membership of the organization is limited to thirty girls who are chosen an- nually by a special election. Each year the society takes on a number of traditions to up- hold. Mcrke Trip to Cleveland For years the club, en masse and with guests, has made an annual trip to the theatre in Cleveland. This year Pembroke saw Alfred Lunt and Lynn Fontaine in There Shall Be No Nightu, a performance which more than lived up to their expectations. Another tradi- tion, and one of the greatest interest and amusement to all is the initiation of new mem- bers. The imposing, formal initiation is quick- ly followed by a humorous evening of inform- al torture for the 4'Pembrokians-to-be . The inevitable derogatory criticism heaped, at the moment, upon the efforts of the new members soon changes to praise as the meeting ad- journs. It is a memory never to be forgotten. Another tradition perpetuated each year is that of the open meeting to which the faculty wives and women are invited. Pembroke this year has been discussing our literary heritage from European countries now engaged in war, and considering the effect of the present crisis upon the future of literature in these countries. This program has kept the literature of today alive and glowing. Pembroke is Wooster's sole survivor of literary societies .... may it ever live and continue its good work. They Like to Play Senator Speaker J. Charles Wynn begs the atten- tion of the noisy congressmen and with a sharp rap of the gavel turned from a White House beam, opens the first meeting of the first session of the thirty-second congress of Wooster's prized Congressional club. Comes February and the second session of the thirty- second congress, Speaker James Allardice begs the attention of the noisy congressmen and opens the meeting with a sharp rap of the White House gavel. The procedure was followed on alternate Monday evenings. All in all, sessions in the underground chamber were great. Sometimes numbers of students on their way to the library gathered around the windows, amazed to see twenty men on their feet at once, and yelling. Names were called, threats were made, but through it all issues were discussed and sensible con- clusions reached. Meat for this forensic chew- ing was furnished by current events, propos- ed legislation and the theses of club members. Surprisingly enough, most oratory was in dead earnest. Boys can be men. lndividucrlists Prevail Personalities were never completely merged in this mentally uncongenial group. Ricksecker of California spoke continually in support of his Voice column. Blackwood of New York always attempted to bring the club to the conservative point of view. Drysdale of Virginia generally took quick in- itiative to laud the New Deal and founder. Jennings of Ohio lambasted Drysdale and Roosevelt. So it went. Bean of Minnesota hab- itually closed the meetings with a dreary I move. Congressional club held true this year to its first function-intelligent thinking, enlight- ened discussion of current, pertinent issues. 5--. 1' f' .-ff ,..,..- . H SOCIAL LIFE .

Barb and Iohnny came closest to the typical characteristics. I-low They Were Chosen The choice of the IndeX's typi- cal boy and girl was not just another popularity contest. With the advice of statistician E. K. Eberhart, the staff prepared a list of personal questions. John Clay and Mary Ellen Park, head- ing a staff of twenty interview- ers, distributed questionnaires to every Wooster student. In compiling results the aver- age answer to every question was computed, the data were then turned over to a selection board consisting of the present editor, last year's editor, Jim Allardice, and the president of the Student Senate, J im Blackwood. Every questionnaire was again checked, this time against the average, and all but a few peo- ple were eliminated. Selection Board Decides With several possible winners, the selection board considered details not included in the ques- tionnaire. A student from Ohio was more typical than one from California, a person from a small town more typical than one from a metropolis. Eventually, all but the winners were eliminated. The boy was, interestingly enough, an administrator of the poll, although he had no part in his actual selection. 153 -an .4 rw, -I rv r1 r 3 4, vi . at , , af' i .5 .i.,, .. ..-.

Sandy is Bob Sanborn, quiet, genial, a promising athlete. Barb and Sandy have gone together since seventh grade, When he led Lorain junior high base- ballers.

At Wooster, as she puts it, You don't need scads of money to get along? Barbara helps herself along. She has been awarded a grant by the college, and she assists in the library. She is active so- cially, finds time to be social chairman of Holden Annex, to do secretary duties for her sorority, and to do reporting for the Voice. She is truly typical: like fellow co-eds she plays bridge, loves to knit, enjoys all sports, although she is confessedly a better spectator than participant. Barb dresses smartly, yet simply. Like most Wooster co-eds, she lives during the Week in skirts, sweaters, and saddle shoes. In attitude, dress, and manner, she is what the Wooster girl is or strives to be. Barbara Baker is typical of the Wooster girl. AT THE SHACK Barb and her steady, Bob Sanborn. waste a few minutes over cr couple oi cokes.

From Canal Fulton High School, with its graduating class of but fifty-five, it was natural for him to turn to Wooster Col- lege only thirty miles distant. A leader in high school, John lost no time in becoming active in college. He was elected a freshman representative to the Student Senate and has held office ever since. N ow a sophomore, he is vice-president of his class. John's favorite sport is football, and he saw considerable service this year with the Woost- er squad, where his passing ability stands him in good stead.

A geology major, he has been honored with a geology assistantship, which is a coveted award given to majors of high rank. The proceeds of this position and an honor scholarship enable him to contribute materially to the cost of his education. About the campus, John is brisk, seems ef- ficient. He dresses comfortably, prefers brown or tan clothing. In class, he is not forward, neither hesitant. He speaks with a brisk di- rectness. The typical Wooster boy does not go steady. Johnny feels that he is not an overly frequent dater, places his emphasis more on studies and sports. A GEOLOGY LAB ASSISTANTSHIP keeps Iohnny busy about ten hours a week. His main iobs are grading lab papers and giving rock and mineral tests. Here he is giving cr test to Margo Drury. In the background are Marion Com-ey and Dick Miller. FOOTBALL is Iohnny's favorite sport. He was handicapped last fall by a trick knee that sometimes wouldn't support his weight. A backiield man, he's a shitty runner and an accurate passer. He likes to play basketball and tennis too. but isn't good enough in these sports to make the varsity. 155 Llkll, Review: Shall We Dance? Before the year 1932, dancing was prohibit- ed on the Wooster campus. How the old guard, opposed to that sinful practice, would shake their heads today! During the 1940-41 year, there have been seventy-seven dances on the hill. Dances have become increasingly variedg formals, all-colleges, sweater hops, tea dances, and a jitterbug contest peppered the social calendar. Most humorous event of the social year oc- curred at the end of Hoover formal last March. The band played past the midnight hour, putting thirty girls on suspended privileges. Our faculty doesn't permit the students to figure alone in Wooster society. The Woo- Star Soap corporation, under the auspices of station W. C. C. threw a party in subterra- LARRY GRI-l.YSON'S eleven piece band played tor eighteen college dances this year. Directed by Oscar Schrader, the outfit is the best local band that has ever played on the hill. All but three of the personnel are collegians.

And yet that the Women hold their own is evidenced by the girls' clubs, Wooster's sub- stitute for sororities. Last year Wooster had only four clubs, but time marches on, and, in Above: OUR BLOSSOMING BEAUTIES threw an all-club formal for their buds early this spring. Red and white streamers formed a canopy effect for a colorful Mardi Gras theme. Lower left: INITIATION TERROR was experienced by girls too. Glenys Morris and lean Loweth got theirs under the guidance of the Trumps who gave their torture a crowning glory, a garland ol onions. the Words of Christopher Robin, Now We are six.

These twenty-three girls bid clubs last fallg they turned out to be trumps- all of them ace high. Their organization was one of two new girls' clubs formed. Margie Ellis was president. Initiation ceremonies in the fall were topped off by a formal dinner. The girls enter- tained at a tea dance, bridge party, surprise shower, and scavenger hunt at various times throughout the year. The social side has not been the only one stressed by the Chi Alpha Chi's, for in the spring the group attended the opera in Cleve- land, and during the year carried on a service project in connection with the Wooster Wel- fare Society.

With petite Alice Carmichael hold- ing the reins, the club launched a series of social events which included pledge parties, teas, buffet suppers, theater parties, bridges, breakfasts, a formal dinner, and an informal dance with the decorations carried out in true Egyptian style. The Pyramids are fortunate in having as their advisor Ibby Coyle, who was, not many years ago, a student member of the club. Her interest and enthusiasm serve as a real in- spiration to the girls.

Dominoes, organized at Homecoming time, celebrated this occasion with a breakfast at the tea house. The next event of the year was the formal initiation dinner held in the Red room of the Ohio hotel. Then came the sweater derby, an informal dance given by the club in Babcock basement. A taffy tea was another outstanding event of the year, as was the dinner party given by the Dorninoe pledges. Bridge parties, teas, theater parties, and picnics helped fill out the social calendar. Mildred McClellan is the retiring domine of the Dominoes, Martha Smith is the president-elect. 161 In commemoration of that silent statue in Egypt, the Sphinx club took its name. But silence is not its motto, evidently, from the noise which pervaded the several bridge parties of the year. The outstanding function was the prison party, complete With pictures and finger prints of the male escorts. The Peanuts came as guests to the dance.

The freshman counsel- ors must be able to answer questions like this for perplexed freshmen girls. Junior and sen- ior girls are chosen as counselors to guide freshmen through the puzzles of the first days. Headed by Ruth Gensbigler, and guided by Dean MacKenzie, the counselors met many times during the first Weeks. Each advisor held meetings with her group of six or seven girls, who talked and played together. A picnic of the entire group of freshmen girls and their counselors was held at the City Park. During Prayer Week each counselor Was a leader of a group in one of the freshmen dorms. l63 One-Hundred-One Frosh Brave Brimstone This year's h!i'!l week followed an unus- ually long deliberation period. Freshmen men received fraternity bids Friday afternoon, February 28, and were allowed the weekend to decide. Initiation week began seven days later. Pledge masters of the ten sections received instructions issued by Dean Bruere. He tem- pered harsh practices with Biblical admoni- tions such as, 'iTemper the wind to the shorn lamb. This year's initiation was to be abbreviated, only daytime hazing was per- mitted on Monday and Tuesday. Restricted in this way, sections concentrat- ed early in the week on valet service. Pledges shined shoes, pressed clothing, and cleaned rooms. Ninth section carried this farthest, making valet service public by placing a valet stand in front of their headquarters. Pledges were on constant duty. Many sections clothed frosh in ridiculous outfits. Livingstone's year- lings wore cardboard hats and slightly de- crepit morning dress. Wednesday night, sections launched their active campaigns. First and Seventh section pledges were subjected to an ordeal by fire. Pledges with their mouths full of water dash- ed from top-floor Kenarden in an endless chain. Their object was to extinguish a fire blazing in Kenarden quadrangle. During the course of the week every sec- tion enjoyed at least one scavenger hunt. Pledges returned with articles from auto- graphs to livestock. .. ,, .-.l ..,:-.qv 1-' .:' -f.,-', Mr' .w.1-:-i.5T'-fi-'!?.t.45:5 .- ,cl 12225: V- - - 'H-'--'f-- aa4'1f1.., .-1 V,-.., 'f-frzeii- . 4 - '..f I lg' 'f .

Actives who took fledglings out in a de- crepit Ford were forced to return on foot when their car failed. lnitiates derided initia- tors. On the whole this year marks a step for- ward in an administration effort to remove from Hell Week its medieval inquisitionary aspect. As a Voice commentator suggested, With the former week made so much milder and limited to such an extent, perhaps this week ought to be called Purgatory Week. Fourth Section Goes To Town Fourth section pledges chain-danced through town one evening. Actives left mon- eyless Frosh to their own devices after order- ing abundantly in an ice cream parlor. Fresh- men turned the tables when they discovered upperclassmen had guaranteed the bill. They ordered more, overdrew their account, section members glowered. Several sections presented skits. Fifth section featured vaudeville at the Grill, Shack-goers saw Second's melodrama-satire. Likewise, most sections ordered entertainment later. Third yearlings presented an opera, Clear as Mud. Seventh enjoyed their pledges' discomflture when they were locked in a small closet, given two minutes to ex- change underwear. Sixth section pledges were surprised by members, solicitude. A coil was wired to a metal bed, freshmen invited to recline. Active members found the performance enjoyable, pledges felt it shocking. In Warburton, activi- ties laughed at their yearlings' discomiiture when they found oysters had replaced the goldiish which they thought they were to swallow. Two novices jumped the gun, re- moved blindfolds and swallowed the fish while upperclassmen gasped. The final night of Hell Week is traditionally Ride-out Night. Pledges, bereft of money, are left to their own devices after they are deposited somewhere in Ohio. Greatest distance traveled by pledges this year was forty-two miles. THE GENTLER SIDE ot human nature is not overlooked during initiation week when the rougher pleasures are usually rampant.
