These recent years have called not so much for men and Women of specialized knowledge, of technical skill, or vocational Htness. The call has been for men and Women of enlightened intelli- gence, of social vision, of ethical principles, men and Women with a passion for justice and righteousness, and with a spirit of unself- ish devotion to the common welfare. 'The liberal arts college was founded to pro- duce this type of citizen. It is this quality of men and Women Drury seeks to have go forth from her halls. Recognizing that the building of such characters is the supreme nw: -sion of the College, Drury sets herself, reverently and resolutely, to the accomplish- ment of this challenging task. Sincerely, Thomas W. Nadal. Page Tlll'l'lE672 Home of the President SOUWESTER 1936 1 JOHN N. BENNETT, A. M., LL. D. Dean of the College, Professor of Education DEAN HOLMES Lulu Haskell Holmes, Dean of Women, has presided in this capacity the past seven years. Besides serving as instructor in fresh- man English and as Dean of Women, she has had charge of the girls' dormitory. Dur- ing the year 1934-35 she was on a leave of absence in Kobe, Iapan, where she taught in Kobe College. Drury is glad to have her back. y DEANS Page Fourteen DEAN BENNETT For the past ten years Iohn N. Bennett has served Drury College both as Dean ofthe College and as head of the Education depart- ment. He has proved himself an able psy- chologist and teacher and has taken his place in the hearts of the students as Dean. 4--'--'iv -' e-Y- Tq- Y-1 LULU HOLMES, A. M. Dean of Wfomen DEAN SKINNER Thomas Stanley Skinner, Dean of the Con- servatory of Music, and Professor of Piano, Organ, and Theory, in Drury College since 1917, has meant much in the development of Drury's Music Department. Among other things he has made the A Capella Choir one of Springfield's most outstanding musical or- ganizations. R. W. HOFFMAN, B. D., A. M. Dean of the School of Bible sou'WEsTER 1955 DEANS Page F i ftecn . . W- -.. T. STANLEY SKINNER, Mus. B. Dean of the Conservatory of Music DEAN HOFFMAN The Drury School of the Bible, noted for its ideals and sincerity of purpose, has been under the supervision of Dean Ralph Warren Hoffman since 1930. During this time Drury has graduated many ministerial students. Dean I-IoFfman's pleasant personality has Won for him many friends, among both the young ministers and other students of the College. l , SOU VVESTER 1956 GUY L. BARNES, Ph. B. Execzzlitfe Secretary Page Sl..1'f6'CPll Executive Secretary ln the three years that Mr. Guy L. Barnes has been connected with Drury College he has proved himself a valuable and sincere friend of every student on the campus. Hun- dreds of students have been helped, through his efforts, to find work either off or on the campus. As a result of Mr. Barnes' work in reorgan- ization of the publicity department there has been a marked increase in Drury's enrollment since 1953. Many students from out of the state have learned of the college through the effective working of this unit. A great part of the progressive movement, leading to the constant and steady upbuilding of the College, can be attributed to Mr. Barnes, as Well as other members of the ads ministration. SOU'WESTER 1936 MATHEMATICS BENJAMIN E. PINKEL, A. M., PH. D., LLD. Professor of Mathematics and Physics The history of the Mathematics Department at Drury College centers around two great names, Dr. Paul Roulet and Dr. Benjamin F. Finkel. Professor Roulet came to the College in 1873, when the College opened, ancfserved until 1886. It was with the coming of Dr. Finkel, in 1895, that the department assumed an outstanding position. By 1897 it was possible to take four years of Mathe- matics and by 1909 the numbers of courses offered had increased to nineteen. Dr. Finkel has served the College continuously since 1895, except for two years when he was doing graduate and research work in the University of Pennsylvania. He took his B. S. degree from Ohio Northern University at Ada in 1888. In 1904 he received his Master's de- gree from the University of Pennsylvania, and in 1906 received his Doctor s clegreefrom the same school. In 1923 Drury College conferred upon him the degree of LL. D. WILMER N. THOMPSON, B. S., A. B. Instructor in Mathematics Before Dr. Finkel came to Drury one of his great ambitions was to establish a Mathematical magazine. In 1893 he established the American Mathematical Monthly, the first journal of its kind in America. This he edited and published for nineteen years. Dr. Finkel also helped to found the Mathematical Association of America, which now has over two thousand members. W'ilmer Thompson, Assistant Professor of Math- cmatics, graduated from Drury in 1911 and returned as instructor in 1921. Mr. Thompson worked in the research laboratories of the Bell Telephone Company in New York City for three years, and later served as civil engineer for the Republic of Haiti. During 1933-35 he served as Greene County engineer for the PWA. Warren White and Willard Hanawalt are the student assistants in the Department, and are also assistants in the Physics Department. Page Seventeen SOU'WESTER 1936 SCCIAL SCIENCE LEWIS E MEADOR, A, M. Professor of Economics Drury College can justly be proud of her Social Science Department. In 1896 were inaugurated what were destined to be among the first social science classes in the United States. Prior to this, courses in constitutional history, a branch of study closely allied to the Social sciences, had been offered, but it was not until 1896 that Drury Col- lege actually announced a department in the field of social science. , I Dr. William Rullkoetter, who came to Drury in 1896, was largely instrumental in assuring the suc- cess of the newly-founded Social Science Depart- ment. Starting with a course in Political Science, Dr. Rullkoetter added two new branches of Social Science, Economics and Sociology, in 1908. In 1913 Professor Lewis E. Meador, present head of the Social Science Department, came to Drury. Under his leadership the Department has gained in prestige and importance, and turned out nu- merous students who have achieved distinction in academic and professional Helds. Several leading colleges and universities in this country have ap- Page pointed Drury graduates, who have majored under Professor Meador, to positions on their faculties. An even larger number of students has found responsible positions in the employ of the govern- ment, a fact which speaks highly of Professor Meador's efforts. Professor Meador takes a per- sonal interest in the graduates of his department and has made it a point to keep in touch with a great many of them. His scientific and thoughtful teaching have through twenty and more years at Drury left a definite mark on the institution. Professor Meador graduated from the University of Chicago in 1910. After receiving his Master? degree at Columbia University in IQI-3, Professor Meador was added to the Drury faculty as pro- fessor in History and Social Science. Since 1951 he has devoted his attention exclusively to the Social Science field. The assistants in the Department of Social Science for the school-year IQ35-1936 are Betty Ann Rountrcc, Harold Teeter, and Merle Hammond. EI-ghZ6671 SOU'WESTER 1936 MUSIC WILLIAM KRAUPNER, PH. D. Professor of Piano With the opening of the Hrst session in 1873, Music held a position as one of the major de- partments in the College. Henry P. Sherburne was the first professor of Music. In 1814 Alexander B. Brown became professor of Music, and alsc the Director of the newly established Missouri Conservatory of Music, serving in that capacity until 1883 when L. L. Busch came to Drury. Throughout the entire history of the Conservatory many prominent musicians have Hlled positions in the department, among whom are William A. Chalfant, Robert C. Chapin, Lulu Sanford Eefft, Lura Lee Patrick, Edith Lapham, Elizabeth Hull, Susie Marie Dillard, Emma Lisenby, Herbert Lee Hoover and Charles Holliee Negus. The Conservatory was organized as one of thc departments of the college. The work was di- vided into two grades corresponding with the years YW, .l x I 1. MILES MARCELL Instructor in Clarinet and Saxophone in the Academic and Collegiate courses. Throughout the history of the Conservatory of Music the equipment has been one of the outstand- ing features of this department, which has practice rooms with piano and organ facilities. For a great number of years the Music department had its studios in the theatrical departments, which were located in the north annex to Dolores McCullough Cottage, which was especially built for this pur- pose. The rooms were equipped with upright pianos. The organ and violin departments of the Conservatory occupy rooms in the Stone Chapel. In 1925, the Clara Thompson Hall of Music was built. Ample practice rooms with the necessary equipment were provided. Because of this Hne equipment and the outstanding instructors, the Drury Conservatory of Music is recognized as one of the outstanding schools of its type in this section. Pa ge N incteen SOUWVESTER 1956 MUSIC I EDWIN W. PETERS Instructor in Brass and Director of the Band Many notable features have been definitely in evidence in connection with music during the past year. The programs given by the A Capella Choir, Dr. Kraupner's Chamber Music, and the numerous and well-received public performances of Gibson Walters, Edmond Iarvis and Fred Duffelmeyer have been true indexes of the increasing popular- ity of the Conservatory performances. The suc- cess of the musical Held is, in the main, attributable to the conscientious efforts of the Conservatory teachers. This group of teachers has been guided in its work by a two-fold purpose: first, to maintain high standards of scholarship for all music stu- dents, and secondly, to train the students in an appreciation of the very best in musical literature particularly from the point of view of music, heard and recognized in its highest form of expres- sion. One of the organizations that has done outstand- ing work is the string quartet. This group, composed of.Marjorie Ann Shackleford, Iirst vio- lin, lean Freeman, second violin, Rosemary Maxey, viola, and Marjorie Delange, cello, has played in both St. Louis and Kansas City, and has received cordial notices in the press. They have played in numerous towns all over the state and have made a fine reputation for themselves and the college. WILLARD GIBSON WALTERS, B. M., M. M. Head of Department of Stringed Instruments and Instructor in Violin These young women have played together nearly Hve years. The male quartet, composed of Paul Shoreak, tenor, Paul Morton, second tenor, VVilfred VVool- dridge, baritone, and Iohn Gibbons, bass, has also done outstanding work. Organizations similar to these two do much to show the excellence and eHiciency of the music department. Following the Christmas vacation the A Capella Choir was discontinued temporarily to make way for the Springheld Oratorio Society which will pre- sent Mendelssohn's Elijah in April. The members of the Conservatory faculty are: Thomas Stanley Skinner, Mus. B., Dean of the Conservatory of Music, and Professor of Piano and Organ, Vlfilliam Kraupner, Ph. D., Professor of Piano, VVillard Gibson Xvalters. B. NI., NI. NI.. Acting Head of Department of Stringed Instru- ments, and Instructor in Violin: Clarence Edmond Iarvis, Mus. B., Instructor in Singing: Nliles, Nlar- cell, Instructor in Clarinet and Saxophone: Edwin Wfilliam Peters, Instructor in Brass. and Director of Band, Fred Gilbert Dullielmcycr, Mus.

Professor of Chemistry The Department of Chemistry was organized in 1905, with Dr. Harrison Hale as the first head. structor in Biology, Chemistry, and Geology. Under Dr. Hale the department grew rapidly in importance and in achievements. The Whit- Prior to this time chemistry had been taught, since the early eighties, as a branch of the Biology Department. Dr. E. M. Shepard was the hrst Chemistry teacher, and for many years was in- comb Chemical laboratories were donated to the school and now occupy the basement of Pearsons Hall. A Dr. ,Hale is now head of the Chemistry Depart- ment at the University of Arkansas, and has often been successful in placing Drury graduates in assistantships in Chemistry at the University. Dr. Hale left Drury in 1918, and was succeeded by Dr. Ward L. Ray, who directed the department for two years. It was in 1920, that Dr. Roland Neal, the pres- ent head of the Department, came to Drury. Dr. Neal graduated from Cornell College in 1904, and took his Master's degree from the same school in 1907. He received his Doctor's degree from Leland Stanford Iunior University in 1915. Since coming to Drury, Dr. Neal has done some teaching at the University of Missouri Sum- mer School. Many individuals who have graduated from the Department have achieved positions of distinction. There are numerous graduates working in indus- try, among whom are chemists for mining com- panies, for large paper companies, and for other industries. Among those who now occupy impor- tant teaching positions are: Dr. Otto M. Smith, Professor of Chemistry at Oklahoma College of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts, Dr. George W. Sears, Professor of Chemistry at the University of Nevada, and Dr. E. C. Mason, Instructor in Chem- istry in the Oklahoma University Medical School. Recent Drury graduates who are now assistants in the Department of Chemistry at the University of Arkansas are Truman Steele, of Hurley, Mis- souri and Edward Peebles of Surinvheld Mis- f 1 l as 1 souri. Page Twenty-two soU,vvEsTi3R 1936 BIGLOGY JAMES E. ACRIBBS, M.S., PH. D. Professor of Biology The first-record of the study of Biology in Drury College is found in the Drury College Bulletin, in which Thomas U. Planner is listed as Lecturer on Anatomy, Physiology, and Hygiene. In 1881, Ed- ward M. Shepard came to Drury as Professor of Natural Science and Instructor in Chemistry. Dr. Shepard did some progressive Work for Drury in the Held of science, and literally put that depart- ment on its feet. Several years later C. H. Spur- geon made Drury's Biology department Well known. He did much to interest students in the study of medicine. In 1920, Iames E. Cribbs, present head of the Biology Department, came to Drury. Dr. Cribbs took his Ph.D. at the University of Chicago and has become a valuable and Well-liked member of the Drury College faculty. He is not only a biolo- gist, but also an artist, both in painting and in photography. He has developed the laboratories of the Biology Department to an extensive and valuable degree. Each summer Dr. Cribbs serves as the director of a group of students and teachers, which makes an omnibus tour of the country. The Drury College Museum, founded to make a study of the natural history of Missouri, is an added feature of the Biology Department. VVhile the Work of the Biology Department is especially adapted for biology majors, pre-medics, and teachers, it is also helpful to those majoring in j other subjects. Since manls primary interest is in himself, Biology is brought not only into the realm of cultural subjects such as art, psychology, and lit- erature, but also into the elements of everyday life. Beta Beta Beta, honorary undergraduate Fra- ternity, is open to all those who have met certain scholastic standards and have completed a re- quired amount of Work in the biological sciences. The organization, besides looking to excellence in the scholastic field, has, for its objective, the spread- ing of biological information and the advancement of .science by new discoveries. The assistants in the Biolog De artment are Y P ,lohn Carrier and Orin Davidson. Page Twenty-three SOUWESTER 1936 LIBRARY WILLIAM A. DAGGETT, A. M. Librarian The Drury 'College Library has always occupied an important place in the College's life. It began its work in 1873, Drury's first year, in a single room of the original College building with George I-I. Ashley, A. M., the Latin, Greek, and English professor, acting as librarian. Chiefly because of the untiring efforts of President Morrison, the library has grown rapidly from these modest be- ginnings, and adds almost a thousand books yearly. In 1894 it was found necessary to move the library to the larger and more attractive quarters on the ground floor of Stone Chapel. It was, in these early days, the only public library in the entire southwestern half of Missouri. Two great names in library history are Edward M. Shepard, and our present mathematics professor, Dr. Benjamin E. Finkel. In 1925, the library was moved to its present home, the Harwood Memorial Library, in the center of the campus. By this time the Library had grown to such an extent that it required the full-time work of a librarian. Mr. William A. Daggett, A. M., who had been assistant librarian from 1925 to 1925, assumed the position of librarian in 1925, and has served the College in that capacity ever since. Drury's library is now modern in every respect, with a fine building, spacious reading rooms, a large periodical selection, and about 55,000 bound volumes. On April 25, IQ30, the library obtained, from the Carnegie Foundation, a grant of 32,000 a year for Eve years for the purchase of books, many of which were put into circulation this year. The library also serves as a depository for all govern- ment publications. Mr. Daggett has been assisted this year by Imogene Ruhl, senior assistant. Elizabeth VVellshear, Marjorie XVheat, Marion Buchanan, and Marceline Robertson. This assis- tantship serves as a preliminary training school for those who wish to continue their study of library science. Page Tzzfenty-fozrr SOU'Vv'ESTER 1936 PHYSICAL EDUCATION VIRGINIA GERTRUDE FINEFROCK, A. B. Instructor in Physical Education The Physical Education Department has com- pleted an unusually successful season, which is the culmination of many years' progress in the athletic realm. At first, the athletic activities centered mostly around the Drury College Cadet Corps, organized in 1888, with oliicers commissioned by the State in charge. In 1893, the gymnasium was located in the base- ment of Fairbanks Hall. Miss Laura A. Schwab, Expression teacher, who was given the title of Instructor in Physical Culturew the following year, became Drury's first gym teacher. It was then that physical culture was made a required course. The present gymnasium was erected in 1909 by the citizens of Springfield and the alumni of the college, and the athletic field and grandstand were added the following year. 1 It was the year 1927 that brought Mr. Albert L. Weiser, A. B., to Drury as Director of Athletics. I-Ie has done much to develop the department in regular classwork, intramurals, and interscholastic ALBERT L. WEISER. A. B. Professor of Physical Education and Director of Athletics sports. A varied program is carried on in the regu- lar classes, including the fundamentals of the major sports, wrestling, games, and relays. Drury now belongs to the M.C.A.U. and competes in intercollegiate meets in basketball, tennis, track, and baseball. Eugene Westover, Iimmy Ewing, and I-Iarold Logan have assisted Mr. Weiser in the department this year. Miss lean Maxham KIQZSD was the Hrst director of the women's athletic department to devote all of her time to that work. Miss Virginia Einefrock, A. B., who assumed that position this year, has carried on this work very efficiently. Besides class instruction in sports, such as hockey, volley- ball, basketball and baseball, special work has been done in the classes this year in stunts, tap-dancing, folk-dancing, tennis, swimming, and horseback riding. Considerable attention is also given to the intramural sports program. Helen Louise Dyer and Mary Margaret Reed served as assistants in the department. Page Twenty-five SOU'WESTER 1936 EDUCATION JOHN N. BENNETT, A. M., LL. D. Dean of the College, Professor of Education The practical aim of the Education Department is to make teachers of college students. The late President Elliot of Harvard once said: The su- preme value of a teacher lies not in the regular per- formance of rputine duties, but in his power to lead and inspire his students through the influence of his own mental and moral personality and ex- ample. For ten years Dean Iohn N. Bennett has made it the purpose of his department to develop breadth of interest, good judgment, self-control, forcefulness and enthusiasm in prospective teachers. His work has culminated a steady growth in the Education Department which began the first year of Druryls existence when a normal class was offered to anyone who wanted to prepare for teach- ing. In 1907 a Department of Pedagogy appeared. Three courses were offered: Principles of Teach- ing, History of Education, and Philosophy of Edu- cation. Dean Bennett believes that these last two classes are designed especially to meet the require- ment set forth by President Elliot. Dean Bennett graduated from Doane College, Nebraska, in 1890 and later obtained his Master's degree from the University of Nebraska. After receiving an LL.D. from Doane College, Dean Bennett spent several years in teaching and study before assuming his duties as Dean of the College and Professor of Education at Drury in 1926. Dur- ing the years following Dean Bennett has done much to make possible effective preparation for future teaching. Through arrangements with school authorities in Springfield, he has made it possible for many students to engage in actual teaching. No more effective training for the teaching profession can be obtained. But withal it is rather for his kindly personal influence that Dean Bennett will be remembered. A teacher, after all, is judged by what he is as well as by what he has accomplished. The Rev. G. Bryant Drake has often helped Dean Bennett in the Department and this year Reverend S. Walton Cole has also given instruc- tion in classes. Student assistants in this department are Mary Ellen Likins and Margaret Grosskreutz. Page Twenty-fix soU'vvEsTE1t IQ-36 HISTORY GLENN H. BENTON, A. M., LL. D. Professor of History The History Department of Drury College is under the instruction of Glenn Harrison Benton, A. M., Ph.D., Professor of History on the Albert Marty Foundation. Since coming to Drury, Dr. Benton has made the History Department one of the most popular and outstanding departments in the college. In order to give students a proper background and an adequate conception of the development of men and movements, the history department offers a wide variety of courses to fulfill this need. Among the more popular courses offered are Euro- pean, American, and English Histories , and In- ternational Relations. History was first taught bv President Nathan l. Morrison, under the department of Social Science. In 1878 history was taught as a separate subject under Geoijsfe B. Adams, who was Professor of History for ten years. Other professors who taught in the history department, since that time 21I1Cl prior to Dr. Benton, are Charles R. Iacob, Robeii C. Chapin, Oliver H. Richardson. VVilliam Ruli- lioetter, and Lewis E. Meador. In 1921 Dr. Benton became Assistant Professor of History and served in that capacity until 1925 when he became Associate Professor. Six years later he was made head of the Department. Dr. Benton received his A. B. degree from Oberlin College in 1921, his A. M., in IQ23, and his Ph.D. from the University of Iowa in 1932. Dr. Benton 11Ot only carries on his departmental work, but he also takes an active part i11 student activities and a personal interest in student prob- lems. He is faculty advisor to three student organi- zations: the Liberal Club, the International Rela- tio11s Club, and the Cosmopolitan Club. He, like- wise, serves as secretary to the Drury Chapter of Pi Gamma Mu, national Social Science honor society. U11der the watchful surveillance and untiring efforts of Dr. Benton, the department has made much progress in the years in which he has been Professor of History. This year the senior students assisting him in his Department are Virginia Seele, Pauline Morey, Raymond Buschmeier, and Frances Knox. Page Twenty-seven SOUWESTER 1936 BIBLE R. W. HOFFMAN, B. D., A. M. Dean of the School of Bible In the first catalogue of Drury College we find evidencethat religious instruction was regarded as fundamental in the future development of the College. The view was expressed by the founders that instructing youth in the principles of the Chris- tian religion was absolutely essential. From that time until the present, religious training has as- sumed an important place on the campus. Witb the development of the School of Bible an op- portunity for religious endeavor was opened to all those 'interested in the ministry or in some other phase of religion. Every year a number of divinity students graduate from the College, many of whom continue their studies in theological semi- naries and in universities. i Ralph Warren Hoffman, a graduate of Drury College, has acted in the capacity of Dean of the School of Bible, and Professor of English Bible since IQ5I. Dean Hoffman received his M. A. and B. D. degrees at the: University of Chicago, before assuming the post of Acting Dean of the School of Bible in 1930. During the brief period of his guidance the School has grown into a branch of the College which makes its appeal to all students. The Student Fellowship, an organization under the guidance of Dean Hoffman, brings together a group of young men and women for discussion of topics in which they are interested. The Student Ministerial Association, an organization of students preparing for the ministry, has also achieved a vital place in the religious life of the campus. The Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. fulfill an im- portant need in providing religious emphasis to student activities. At all times the attempt is made to maintain an atmosphere and type of in- struction which will be religious in a vital way and yet not be sectarian. As a part of the instruction pro- gram a course in Bible or ethics is required of every Drury student who intends to graduate from the College. Dean Hoffman has as his student assistant. Mad- eline Blackwell. Page Twenty-eight soU'W13sTER 1936 LANGUAGE A l .L ALICE EIGERT, A. B. ' Assistant in Modern Languages Modern Language holds an important place in any liberal arts college, and its progress and de- velopment are always closely allied with the cul- tural development of the college. It is thus a sig- nificant fact that from the first year of Drury's existence French and German have been included in the curriculum. The courses in the modern language department offered are designed to develop in the student an appreciation of the great literary masterpieces of foreign literatures. Professor Lambert S. Orton came to Drury in 1932, at which time he was named acting head of the department of modern languages. The next year he was made professor in the modern Lan- guages Department. During these years Mr. Or- ton has introduced into the teaching of French a unique and successful plan, the purpose of which is to inculcate an appreciation and feeling for the language through the study and singing of Old French folk songs. This plan has germi- nated into the popular French Choir, composed of French students who enjoy singing and who wish to perfect their pronunciation. The organization I Twe LAMBERT ORTON, A. M. Professor of Modern Languages has steadily grown both in members and in popularity until it is now composed of fifty voices. The trips made this year to St. Louis and Kansas City are evidence of this unique group's popularity. 'fThe Messiahf' an oratorio by Handel, was an- other very successful project directed by Mr. Orton. Over a hundred students sang The Messiah in French, which proves the popularity of the theory that language taught through music gives one an appreciation which would otherwise not be gained. The growth of German in Drury has run along parallel lines with French. It has had its strongest appeal to pre-medic and chemistry students who de- sire a knowledge of scientihc German in order to- further their studies in science. g Miss Alice Eigert is assistant instructor in mod- ern languages. Since her arrival in Drury in the fall, she has organized a new German Club com- posed of high-ranking German students. This is evidence of a new interest in the cultural value of German as a language. Mr. Orton's assistant is Christine Hervey. my-nine SOU'WESTER 1936 HOME ECONOMICS RUTH GODWIN, A. M. Associate Professor of Home Economics The Home Economics Department of Drury Col- lege was established in 1918. Miss Ruth Godwin, who came here in 1920, is now the Associate Pro- fessor of Home Economics on the Ella C. Burn- ham Foundation. She received her A. B. degree from Blue Mountain College and her B. S. and A. M. degrees in Home Economics from George Peabody College, Nashville, Tennessee. The Department was very elaborately equipped in 1918 by the same donors who were responsible for the building of Burnham Hall. At the time the Department was established, the equipment was the best found in any Home Economics department in the Southwest. There are three divisions in this Department: Foods, Clothing and Home Problems, and Man- agement. A student, if she chooses, may receive either a major or a minor in Home Economics. The courses have been planned to meet the needs of two classes of students: those who desire to fit themselves for competent home-makers, teachers of Home Economics, or institutional managersg and those who take major courses in other depart- ments, but feel the need for some knowledge of Home Economics as a part of their general edu- cation. The laboratories are located on the third floor of Burnham Hall. The Clothing and Foods De- partments are both furnished with modern equip- ment for twenty-four students. In the Sewing De- partment there are electric machines, full-length mirrors for fitting purposes, ironing and pressing facilities, and other conveniences to help make sewing an art. The Foods Department is fur-- nished with gas plates to accommodate twenty- four girls. Here menus are planned and prepared with the scientific principles of modern dietetrics. Once a week a model luncheon is prepared in the foods laboratory and served in the departmentis dining room, which is equipped with a complete dinner service. Elizabeth Richardson serves as student assistant in the food and clothing laboratories. Page Thirty SOU'WESTER 1936 CLASSICS 1 JOHN F. LATIMER, A. M., PH. D. Professor of Classics .Latin and Greek, languages of the ancient civili- zations of Southern Europe are, and should be, ranked high in the curriculum of every Liberal Arts College. This department has proved an im- portant factor in the development of Drury Col- lege. In 1873, when the first Drury College Bulle- tin was issued, a Dr. Bennar served as Professor of 'Mathematics and Physics and as instructor in Latin. For four years the department was in vari- ous hands until in 1877 Oliver Brown became Professor of Latin Languages and Literature and held the poisition until 1885. In 1886, Arthur P. Hall came to Drury as Professor of Latin Lan- guage and Literature and continued to serve in that capacity until his retirement in IQ25. Under Pro- fessor Hall the Latin Department became widely recognized. His contemporary, F. A. Hall, Pro- fessor of Greek, made Greek life live in the lan- guage. Under Sereno Burton Clark the Latin and Greek departments were merged. In 1933, Dr. Iohn F. Latimer, a former instructor at Vanderbilt University and Knox College, came to Drury to serve as Associate Professor of Classics on the Agnes Harwood Foundation for the Latin Language and Literature, and on the Constans L. Goodell Foundation for the Greek Language and Literature. He is a graduate of Mississippi College and received his A. M. from the University of Chi- cago and his Ph.D. from Yale. Besides being an active member of Sigma Tau Delta, honorary En- glish fraternity, and directing the activities of the Forensic group, he has been instrumental in the development and activities of the Drury Half-Hour, popular radio program. Undoubtedly the most distinctive feature of the radio programs has been Dr. Latimer's dramatizations of the 'KIlliad and of the MOdyssey.', A literature is great only in so far as it survives. This being true, the classics, both Greek and Latin, represent two of the great literatures of the world. Study of these masterpieces is not a matter of dry bones and ashes, but a dipping into perennial springs of human conduct, emotion and philos- ophy. Page Tfzirfy-0116 soutwiisrian 1936, GEOLOGY 1 FRED ROBERT NEUMANN, A. M., PH. D. Instructor in Geology and Geography The Geology Department of Drury is one of the most completely equipped divisions of the College. One of the most practical assets of the department is a field station, which is located near Grayden Springs, Missouri, a very favorable location for the study of fossils and land forms. Since the buildings have been repaired and renovated lately, the stu- dents have comfortable headqurters- for their field work. The Rockhounds, an honorary geological society, has contributed a number of conveniences, such as lamps, furniture, fireplaces, to the station. The Shepard Museum, collected and donated to Drury by Dr. Shepard, a former professor, has an exceptionally complete collection of lead and zinc minerals from Southwest Missouri. Another out- standing collection is one of copper ores from the Lake Superior district. In addition to these two, there is a very adequate exhibition of other minerals and fossils, which serve to illustrate lectures on the different branches of geology. The geological library is unusually complete. :X ,,f, f AV, , ., Z ,454 EDWARD LEE CLARK, M. S. Acting Head of Department of Geology fOn Leave of Absencej large number of government reports, scientific rec- ords, and magazines is available. There is also a great number of topographical maps of the regions in the United States, and other data of practical interest. Dr. Fred I. Neumann is acting head of the depart- ment in the absence of Mr. E. L. Clark, who is now in Bolivia, South America, doing geological work. Dr. Neumann received his Bachelor of Science and Master of Science degrees from Chicago Uni- versity. His Ph.D. he obtained from Cornell Uni- versity. Before he came to Drury, Dr. Neumann taught at the University of South Carolina, Illinois Wesleyan University and Bowling Green State College in Ohio. In addition to this he has worked in the oil fields of Colorado, Oklahoma. New Mexico, and Texas for the Shell Petroleum Corporation. The assistant to Dr. Neumann is Burton Hasel- tine.

Associate Professor of English In 1873 the English department offered only two courses- Themes and Declamationsl' and En- glish Literature and Civil Liberty. At this time the department was considered so unimportant that it was placed under the Professor of Greek, George Ashley, one of the most influential of the early teachers of the college. From 1876 to 1888 the English Department was under Professor George B. Adams, who was also head of the History Department. Professor Adams, an adept scholar, later went to Yale University, and has become outstanding among history teach- ers and writers in this country From 1888 to 1906 the department was under Miss Caroline W. Daniels, who was also principal of the Ladies' Department, an office which cor- responds to the position of Dean of Women. Miss Daniels was followed by several English teachers during the next decade, of whom Alice Logan Wingo is one of the best remembered. In 1914 the English Department was placed on the George B. and Philander F. Cooper Founda- tion. In 1921 Dr. Iames E. Cox came to Drury. He had much to do with the shaping of the de- partment. After Dr. Fleishman left for Rollins College, Dr. Nadal acted as head of the department for two years, and was succeeded this year by Miss Alinda E Montgomery Page Tfmiy Ihzcc' l c .

Acting Registrar, and Instructor in English The Department of English is the largest in the college both from the standpoint of the num- ber of students enrolled, and from the number of teachers employed. ' Miss Alinda E. Montgomery is now acting head of the department. In her one year in this position she has done much to reorganize and revise the English curriculum, by introducing period courses. English is the only course required of all Fresh- men. These classes are ably guided by Dean Holmes, Miss Sharley Pike, and Miss Marie Kil- helfer. Miss Marie Kilheffer, who is also Registrar of the College, teaches the classes in American Litera- SHARLEY KATHLEEN PIKE, A. M. Instructor in English ture in addition to her freshman class. The former course has been expanded from a 0116-SC1'1'1CStC1' two- hour course to a six-hour course. It is especially advised for sophomores. Under the English department there are classes in Speech and Dramatics which are taught by Miss Montgomery. The technique and actual produc- tion of plays, the art of speech and oratory, and the interpretation of literature are studied in a detailed manner. Dean Holmes is the only one of the English teachers who has an assistant. Christine Hervey acts in that capacity. Page Thirty-fozfr soU'WEsTER 1936 t ART DENZIL HINR, B. ARCH Instructor in Art 'Art in Drury College boasts a long and impres- sive history, being offered in 1873, when the College opened its doors for the first time. Miss Hattie Comings, Acting Lady Principal, had charge of the art instruction for the first few years. The classes in Natural Science, Drawing and Painting were indeed a far cry from the present courses offered, but they served effectively in giving the willing student a rudimentary knowledge of the arts. Later, under the direction of Miss Sarah B. Bryant, classes were conducted in oil painting, acl- vanced drawing, and free hand drawing. From then until the present a number of teachers, includ- ing Frances Fowler, Elsie Duden and Amy Miller, continued the improvement in the Held of Art. The present Instructor in Art is Denzil Hinr, who came to Drury in 1932. Mr. Hinr received his B. Arch. from Washington University in IQ-gi, and later attended the St. Louis School of Fine Arts. Tn 1932 Mr. T-linr was named Special ln- structor in Art and the following year was made head of the Department. Under his leadership an increased interest in art has been evidenced by the student body as a whole. The Art Department is now a well organized and purposeful section. Appliances for instruction in the way of models, casts, and art methods in general are of the most approved kinds. The methods employed are modern, and the aim of the courses is not to produce in the pupils an imi- tative skill, but to inspire in them originality and individuality. Training is also provided in theory and practice, which is designed to increase the powers of observation of students professionally interested in the study of Art. There are also sev- eral courses which are intended for those unac- quainted with art in its higher forms. The pur- pose of these studies is to present an appeal to those whose interests in life are General but who have 5, 5 5 likewise, shown an interest in Art.

Represented by all the outstand- ing groups on the campus, the Student Senate has succeeded remarkably Well in planning all-college functions for the student body. The revival of Homecoming, a number of College dances, Sneak Day and Stunt-night, attest to an increasing activity on the part of the representative body. At all times the Senate has commanded co-operation and loyalty which are indeed commendable. Attempts this year were made to better condi- tions existing between State Teachers College and Drury with a view to renewing eventually the former friendly competitive relationships. The stu- dent Uoverning organizations of the two Groups met in joint session on several occasions to work out a better understandinoz It is undeniable that Oreat strides in this direction have been made durinff the past school year. The Student Senate is the sole campus organiza- tion concerned exclusively with general student activities. Its membership is drawn from the vari- ous Greek letter organizations and the Independent ranks on the basis of proportion and representation. A number of ex officio members, representing le classes and college publications, rounds out the membership of the Senate. Members of the Student Senate are: zglresime . . in J ', - - r A.

Without that virtue the success of any coach is limited. Drury has been fortunate tor the past eight years in having the services of a man who not only knows how to handle men but also is the type of a man a fellow likes to play for. This man is Coach Albert L. Weiser. Coach Weiser is a graduate of Drake University and holds an A. B. degree from Capital University of Columbus, Ohio. The background of his coach- ing experience was acquired While holding the posi- tion of Head Coach of the Springfield high school during the years from 1922 to 1927. During his administration as head coach of that institution he Won three conference championships in basket- ball for three straight years, a district title, and second place in the state tournament at Columbia. Cther laurels include a district title in track. Weiser came to Drury in 1927 and although not blessed with excellent material until this year he has managed to give Drury an athletic recordiof which she mav be proud. This year Coach Weiser has achieved the success for which he has Worked so hard in the past eight years. Under his skillful guidance Drury has Won her first championship in basketball since 1924 and the future looks very bright for Drury and Coach Weiser.

The organization strives to promote an interest in athletics among the women of the college, and thus to promote their physical efficiency and good sportsmanship. Active participation in any sport wins a girl 100 W.A.A. points, and the grand total of 1000 points entitles her to a Drury sweater. Much coveted Drury blankets are the rewards for the highest honor of winning 2000 W.A.A. points. W.A.A. BOARD President, Geneva Ellison . . . Vice-President, Maxine Coon . . .

Page Seventy-17116 1 4 1 S 1' I 1 1 l 4 l 1 1 1 V 11 1 fi l ,J SOU'WESTER 1936 Sports Summary BASKETBALL With six lettermen back to form a nucleus for the Panther basketball squad, Coach Weiser had little difficulty in rounding out an excellent team for conference competition. The aftermatn of the success of last season spurred the men of Drury on to their first championship since 1924. Never before has interest been so high at Drury in regard to this sport. ln their first game of the. season the Panthers were defeated by Southwestern by a score of 30 to 27 in a hard fought and freely substituted game. Although out to win, victory was not so important to the Panthers as the experience gained in round- ing out a starting lineup for the conference race. Harry Basore, freshman, won himself a position on the starting five by tallying eleven points to lead the scorers of Drury. Drury led 18 to I5 at the half. Drury's next opponent was the strong Rolla Miners who were defeated by the score 34 to 31. Wright and Westover co-starred for the Panthers in the second half to break away from a I5 to I2 lead by Rolla at the half and salvage the game. After this victory the Weisermen travelled to St. Louis to meet the Washington University Bears in the first game of many years between the two institutions. I The Bears emerged victorious by a slim score of 20 to 17. Drury led at the half 9 to 6 and had an excellent opportunity to win the game in the last three minutes of play only to throw it away by missing seven free throws. At the completion of the Christmas holidays the Panthers played a tune-up battle with the local independent Maytag quintet and lost by a 24 to 9 decision after running up a score at the start of 6 to 0. The Panthers were unable to hold their lead and trailed their opponents at the half I4 to 9. Rolla met the Panthers in a return game in the high school gymnasium on Ianuary II and almost went home with a victory. Drury barely came out on top with a score of 30 to 29. The game at the start gave promise of being a walkaway for the Scarlet and Grey until McGregor, Rolla guard, came into the game and started to run the contest to his own liking. The Panthers again showed a weak- ness in the free throw land and almost lost the game by this route. Ianuary I4 Drury formally opened her confer- ence campaign against the championship Westmin- ster Bluejays and barely eked out a 26 to 25 victory. This immediately established the Panthers as championship timber and a very serious threat to topple the Iays from their coveted perch. Ewing, Panther guard, was highly responsible for this turn of events by pacing the game with I3 points. This taste of victory was quickly taken away from the men of Drury by William Iewell in an- other conference game of a series of two played on Drury,s home court when she defeated our Pan- thers 35 to 32 in a loosely played game. Drury led at the half by a slight margin of I4 to I3 but lost during the closing minutes of the game through a last minute field goal by Morales and a free throw by Bowles, both Iewell men. Monroe of Iewell was high point man with I2 points. In the second game of the series Drury regained her form and romped away with a 28 to 25 victory with Peaches tallying 16 points to sew up the game. Profiting by their loss to Bill Iewell the Pan- thers met Missouri Valley at Marshall on Ianuary 27 and defeated them 30 to 21 to go into a tie with Westminster for the M.C.A.U. lead. Drury made I4 points before' Valley had a chance to score, a11d Page Seventy-six SOU'WESTF.R 1936 Sports Summary showed a great improvement on her charity tosses by tallying ten. Our men led at the half 18 to 3, but their defense broke in the last half. Having an open date, Drury FUCK the weak Kirks- ville Osteopaths in a non-conference tilt and easily defeated them 32 to 19. Drury used 14 players and held the visitors in such close quarters that they were unable to score one field goal in the first half. Our boys led at the half I2 to 3 and continued to pile up the score as the game progressed. North, playing a bang-up game, was exceptionally out- standing in this contest. Westminster however, taking advantages of the Panthers, non-conference date, went into the conference lead by winning over Central. Drury's next four games were away from home and all resulted in decisive victories. February 3 our boys easily defeated the very weak Tarkio Owls by a score of 23 to 7. Twelve players were used in this game. February 4 the Panthers met William Iewell for the third time this season and trounced them 35 to 21. Substitutions were freely made in this game also, and Iohnny North, totaling 16 points, ran away with high point honors. Four days later the Panthers defeated Culver- Stockton 35 to 24 to go into the conference lead. Peaches scored I3 points. Fans agreed this game was a masterful exhibition of ball playing that bordered on perfection at times. February I3 the Weiser men invaded Centralls crackerbox at Fay- ette and ran away with another decisive victory, despite the absence of Aton, North, and Basore from the lineup. This win gave the Panthers un- disputed possession of Hrst place. The feature of the game, however, was the decided improvement in the Panthers' free throw total. Drury completed. I3 out of 15 free throws. But the greatest test of the Panther strength was yet to come. February 15, a day set aside as Home- coming Day, the Panthers met Westminster for the championship in the Drury gym and success- fully turned the Bluejays back again 26 to 25 in one of the greatest basketball duels ever played in Springfield. The lead changed four times in the first half and two times in the second half. Both teams played fast, deceptive, and excellent ball throughout the game and thc fans experienced the thrill of their lives as the two teams see-sawed for the lead and fought desperately for the marginal point which would turn defeat into victory. Ed Hess, Kansas City official who refereed the game, declared, It was one of the greatest games I have ever worked. I have seen few games to equal itf' But the championship was not assured until the Panthers turned Central back in the last game of the Panthers an undisputed possession of first place and their first championship in twelve years. After winning the conference title Drury wound up the season in the M.C.A.U. tournament at Mar- shall. The Panthers had little trouble in winning their way to the finals only to lose out to West- minster by a narrow margin.

With many new faces and the uncovering of several stars, the cinderpath artists of the Scarlet and Grey had a very success'- ful season. The juniors easily won the annual inter-class meet. The seniors came in second with sopho- mores' third and the freshmen last. The Panthers scheduled four meets to round out their season of competition. April 7 Drury met Westminster in a dual meet at Fulton and on the twenty-fourth day they met Missouri Valley and Central in a tri-meet at Marshall. May 2 Drury went to Rolla for a dual meet and wound up the season on May 16 and I7 at Fulton in the annual M.C.A.U. state meet. Coach Weiser picked his varsity from the fol- lowing men: Gene Moore, Dave Moore, Glenn, Dalton, Frey, W. Hackett, L. Adams, W. Dobson, I. Gibbons, W. Knight, Elmore, Luna, Gish, George King, Davidson, McGlothlen, and West- OVCF. FOOTBALL Real football in Drury made its exit in 1932. The newspapers have made several attempts to revive this sport at Drury. In the early part of the school year an unsuccessful experiment was undertaken in which the men of Drury had a chance to take part in a football schedule of their own. Suits were issued to about forty candidates and practice was begun. The sudden interest in this venture began to wane, however, and football went out by the 'cway of Bodenef' Intramural touch football, in contrast to real football, was more successful. Three fraternity teams and two Independent teams took the field to compete for the annual intramural cup. Theta Nu ran off with the honors, but the Independents and Sigma Nu gave them a close fight. The mem- bers of the winning Theta Nu team are: Westover, Ewing, I-I. Knabb, K. Knabb, Barnhart, Upton, Ben Parnell, Wall, George Griffin, Brown, Walker, and Hayes. W BASEBALL The ever increasing popularity of baseball is winning new followers each year. This year's squad, under the direction of Captain Iimmy Ew- ing, had a most successful season. The lineup included: First base, Al White, sec- ond base, Richard Focht, short stop, Frank Ca- lame, third base, Iimmy Ewing, catcher, Gene VValker, Elmore, left fielder, Wendell Stewart, center fielder, Gene Westover, right fielder, Charles Barnhart, pitchers, Charles Barnhart, Garrett Wright, Frank Frey, Richard Focht, substitutes, Ben Parnell, Frank Lister. GOLF Of the major sports in Drury, golf is probably the most overlooked and yet it has been the most productive as far as winning championships are concerned. With such excellent golfers as Walter Thomas, David Woodruff, and Frank Frey, Drury 'loomed as a repeater for the M.C.A.U. crown at Westminster the latter part of May. Drury has been a consistent winner in golf, winning several championships during the past five years. BASKETBALL Intramural basketball has been highly successful this year. The games ran smoothly and all teams played good ball. During the first half Theta Nu monopolized honors completely and were headed for victory in the second half of competition, only to be disqualified for using an ineligible player. Theta Nu was thus forced to concede first place to the strong Independents. Page Seventy-eight ORGANIZATICDNS soutwiasrizn mf, l Seven Sages .l 4-1. K FRONT ROXV: D. Chrisuian, R. Buseh1neier,J.

Its purpose is to stimulate high scholarship among the men of the college. Mem- bers must have at least a 3-point average and at least two semesters in Drury. The novices are the seven highest ranking men completing one se- mester. The First Sage automatically becomes president and presides at meetings. The other officers follow in order of- ranking. Grades are averaged each semester and published in the Drury Mirror. A customary feature of the organization is an annual banquet which constitutes a social function for the group. ' 1 e, .

In 1896 it sent its first delegates, among Whom was Miss Alice Thrasher, to the regional conference held at Geneva, Wisconsin. Since that time delegates have attended these summer con- ferences, now held at Hollister, Missouri. Through the Summer Conference Loan Fund, establishedan 1907 and administered by Mrs. Daggett, almost a hundred girls have been enabled to attend these conferences. On the campus the Y. VV. C. A. aims to promote fellowship and friendship among the Women of the college and to help to make possible a more com- plete life for each. Regular meetings, held each Tuesday after chapel, carry out a special theme for the year. The present theme is K'Living Beauti- fullyf, Each year the Y. VV. C. A. brings to the campus outstanding speakers, who contribute a great deal to the college life. Y. W. enters actively into the social life of the school, sponsoring the Freshmen Women's Commission's meetings and other all-school functions. Membership is open to all women in the college.

The primary purpose of the group was to develop a spirit of fellowship among those preparing for work in the field of Christian service. It soon became evident that there were other students in the college who were interested in the vital issues which were discussed. As a result the membership was extended. ' The monthly programs aim to present to the group certain topics of interest ranging from mod- ern religious problems to current social questions. The year's activities are climaxed by an annual retreat to Honey Locust Hollow where installation of officers takes place and where the ideals of fel- lowship are embodied in serious meditation.

This venerable old brick structure has become the butt of much good natured joking among the many generations of Fairbanks Gentlemenn who have resided there since 1894. lt was in that year while the building was still in its hey-day, that McCul- lagh Cottage was built for use as a ladies' dormi- tory. Prior to this time Fairbanks had been used for a girls, dormitory and for class rooms. Since 1894 it has been gradually but definitely dubbed the Barn , This four-storied old building, con- structed to last, has served faithfully since it was built. The present residents have their own gov- erning board and are further supervised by Mr. and Mrs. Hubert Small who live in one of the first Hoof apartments. 9 OFFICERS O President, Iames Wedding, Vice-President, Thornton Smithg Class Representatives, Wilbur Elmore, Lester Orton, and Gene Radford.

Numerous ministers and laymen, people inter- ested in the ministry, are invited to come before the group and help in discussing various phases of ministerial work. . The group deals with problems confronting them as College Students, as well as those which they will meet in their churches, and in the success- ful pursuit of their professional careers. Meetings are held every two weeks. Richard Bartlesmeyer is President of the organizationg Chelsea Melvin, Vice-Presidentg and R. B. Shook is Secretary-Treasurer. The ever growing membership in the Fellow- ship and Y. M. C. A. groups, which includes students interested in social welfare but not direct- ly interested in the ministry, led the ministerial students to feel that they needed an organization of their own. The Alliance is a professional group, composed of most of the ministers in the College. MEMBERS 0 lack Pennington . . . Sam l. Smith . . . Clyde Pickering . . . lack Burris . . .

O The Drury Cosmopolitan Club was founded in 1929 by a group of internationally minded students. The purpose of the club is to foster the spirit of tolerance, mutual esteem, and broth- erhood among the students of all nationalities as they meet on the college campus. The im- mediate purpose of the club is to serve as a social medium for students from other countries in which they may associate with American students and become acquainted with American life and cus- toms as well as to stir up a friendly interest among the students at Drury concerning the problems that are confronting the nations of the world. The club meets once a month at which time are presented speakers who are versed in interna- tional affairs or who have traveled and lived abroad. In these informal sessions the members of the club secure a wider first-hand knowledge of peoples and nations of the world. Since its in- ception, Dr. G. H. Benton has been sponsor of the organization. OFFICERS Q William Hackett, President . . . Marjorie Wheat, Vice-President . . . Ethel Hew, Secretary . . . Wendell Stewart, Treasurer.

HISTORY I Skiff, installed at Drury College in 1915 by Kathryn Newall Adams, Dean of Women at that time, is an honor society which provides the high- est form of recognition to senior Women. The constitution and organization of Skiff are similar to those of the Mortar Board, National Honor- ary Society for women. The membership is limited to those who, during their years in Drury College, have achieved the most outstanding honors in scholarship, character, personality, and school activities. Retiring mem- bers elect women from the junior class who have demonstrated their ability to excell in these fields. Formal initiation takes place in the spring, when the organization holds its annual Cherry Blossom Tea. Each fall a birthday dinner is held for alumnae. Skiff has charge of two of Drury's most important functions, May Day and Mother's Day. The group is sponsored by Mrs. T. W. Nadal, who has taken an active interest in the activities of Drury girls.

It was called the Drury Mir- ror and its aim was, then as now, to reflect campus life and student opinion. The Mirror has playedits part in the training of both men and women for journalistic careers. Outstanding among the names in the journalistic world are Carlus Hurd, now of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, and re- membered among newspapermen for his famous story of the Lusitania disaster, Frank Hedges, editor of the Tokyo Advertiser, W. H. Brunk- horst of the Springfield Leader and Press, Vincent Carrol and his brother Boyd Carrol, both of whom have worked for the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. Many other men who worked on the Drury Mirror have at one time or another been connected with newspaper work in one capacity or another, al- though some have discontinued their journalistic careers, many are still occupied in this held. Since ISS6 the Mirror has been issued semi- monthly on the second and last Fridays of each month. Over the period of fifty years there has been a steady increase in the value and quality of the newspaper until now it is indispenible both as a training school and as an organ of student ex- pression and information. This year's Mirror has been especially fortunate in having an energetic and talented staff. iHeading the list are Thornton Smith, editor, who has, in the opinion of many in a position to know, given the sheet new life and greater scope, and Williana D. Thornton Smith and William Caughran, the editor and the business manager of the Drury Mirror. Caughran, business manager, who is responsible for the enlargement of the paper from four pages to eight and occasionally twelve pages each issue. Thornton Smith's editorial page has been, throughout the entire year, a non-partisan but crit- ical reflection of student opinion. Editor Smith chose his staff of department editors with care. Ieanne Meaclor as Associate Editor, Ben Cohen as Sports Editor, Charlotte Ackley as News Editor, Loretta Coward as Literary Editor, and Christine Hervey as Feature Editor should have distin- guished rating for their work on this year's Mir- ror. Several new and different features have made their appearance during the year. Particularly noteworthy among them are c'Forty Acres Un- coveredn by C. Boe fa nom de plume of infinite inferencej and Snapshots,' which cause mild furors every two weeks. Rolling Bones, written most of the year by Hal Cooley, has been a much read column. The news articles have met the standards which college publications should have: factual, literary, concise and inclusive. Two weeks before school started this year, Bill Caughran had enough advertising contracted to warrant the addition of the several pages . . . He attended the annual Intercollegiate Press Confer- ence in Chicago last autumn, and used his experi- ence to advantage in the improvement of the Mirror. Thornton Smith and Bill Caughran are deserv- edly receiving great praise for their achievements with the 1935-36 Drury Mirror.

During the year, 1934-35, four mem- bers were added to the Board. The alternates serve as ex-ofhcio members. The present Board is T116 S- U The present Independent Political Organiza- tion originated in the fall of 1931, under the guid- ance of Ronald Stewart. The organization evolved out of the need of some type of representation for the rapidly growing group of students at Drury who were without fraternity or sorority aijfifliations. In order to facilitate constructive work among the Independent students, the Independent Polit- ical Board was organized. This body is composed of a Chairman and one representative from each of the classes, the Chairman being elected by the entire Independent Student Body. The individual class representatives are elected by the Independents composed of: Mavern Tetrick, Chairman, Thorn- ton Smith, Maxine Coon, Gordon Knight, William Parker, James Wedding, Wendell Stewart, Clark Nelson, and Gene Radford. The Independent Political Organization has served a dual purpose. It has organized the non- sorority and non-fraternity students on the campus, enabling them to gain some voice in the govern- ment of the student body, and it has been a potent factor in enlarging the social contacts of the stu- dents who are not members of a fraternity or a sorority.

H., founded at Drury College Sep- tember, 1935, is the newest and undoubtedly the most unique organization on the Drury campus. lt is a semi-secret organization which limits its membership to male pre-medic students of the col- lege. The business procedures as well as the officers of the group are known only to the mem- bership. lt is generally recognized, however, that the S. P. H. endeavors to create a closer brotherhood among those who have chosen medi- cine as a career, and it also attempts to contribute as a group to a better Drury spirit. The S. P. H. will be remembered this year not only for the clever mock-funeral during the homecoming basketball Game but also for beinv instrumental in having a O 7 C O course in Bio-Chemistry added to this year's science curriculum. ' Although the organization is a new one and is still in its infancy, it bids well to become a potent factor in the development of interest and fellow- ship among Druryls pre-medics.

Much interest was shown in the large number out for the debate squad. Working with no coach until the latter part of the year, they produced a team that was capable of debating the Creighton University squad. The squad underwent a short but thorough coaching under Prof. L. E. Meador prior to attend- ing the Kansas City School of Law Tournament in February. A week later the same squad partici- pated in the annual invitation meet at Fulton. In March a debate was held over KWTO with Waynesburg College, Wayiuesburg, Penn., then on a tOL11'. The team participated in about twenty debates this year. The members of the squad are: Bill Brown, Iohn Immer, Milton Kirby, Ioe Rit- tenhouse. Two oratorical contests were sponsored to select representatives to state contests. The first, held in State Peace Contest, was won by Herbert Hackett. The second, known as the Old Line Contest, is held each spring by colleges in the Missouri Union. Charles Gibson was selected as Drury's representa- tive this year. This organization also sponsors an annual con- test for Drury students each spring, in which the participant reads some original work. OFFICERS C President, Milton Kirby . . .

It was originally called I. C. Sorosis, but in 1888 the name was changed to Pi Beta Phi Fraternity, and as such it is incorporated under the laws of the State of Illinois. The fraternity now has seventy-eight active chapters located in the leading colleges and universities of the United States and Canada. Pi Beta Phi has the total active membership of approx- imately IQ,OOO. The fraternity, also has 144 char- tered alumnae clubs. Pi Beta Phi has by voluntary contributions of members and alumnae, maintained a Settlement School at Gatlinburg, Tennessee, established in IQI2 as a memorial to the twelve founders of Pi Beta Phi. Situated in one hundred acres of its own land in eight well-equipped buildings, the school offers work covering eleven grades. It has an en- rollment of nearly one hundred and fifty and has a teaching staff of nine members. The oHicial pub- lication of the Pi Phi chapter is the f'Arrow,', issued quarterly.

Its membership is limited to those who rank in the upper third of the class and do outstanding work in the biology department, and who have completed two years work in college. Aside from stimulating scholarship, Tri Beta has an additional objective: the spread of biological information and the advancement of science by new discoveries. It emphasizes, therefore, a three fold program: souiul scholarship, dissemination of scientific knowledge, and thoroughness of biological research. The National Honorary Biological Fraternity, Beta Beta Beta, was founded in 1922, and Chi Chapter was installed in 1929 at Drury. The Flower is the Red American Beauty Rose. OFFICERS 1935 O Iohn A.

Pi Alpha, the local chapter, was established on the Drury College campus in May, 1925, by Dr. Iames E. Cox, then head of the English department. The local chap- ter is not now alfiliated with the national organi- zation. The purpose of Sigma Tau Delta is to promote the mastery of written expression, to encourage worthwhile reading, and g to foster a spirit of fellowship among students specializing in English. The national organization, as well as the local unit, was founded on the three principles of Sincerity, Truth, and Design. OFFICERS U Elizabeth Wellshear, President . . .

HISTORY O Alpha Mu Omega was organized in October, IQZQ, by the music students in the Drury Conserva- tory to give recognition to superior students. The name, Alpha Mu Omega, was selected for the organization after a meeting with Mrs. Arnold Small, who was then in the Conservatory. The slogan, Music first, last, and alwaysf, was one which embodied the ideals of the newly organized musical society and formed the basis upon which it was to function. The constitution, at that time limited membership to upper classmen who were pledged if they met certain scholastic require- ments. The goal of Alpha Mu Omega is to perpetuate the beauties of music as well as to create a spirit of fellowship among the music majors of the Drury Conservatory.

Together with the Modern Language Chorus, the French Choir forms the nucleus of the new major in French song literature. Aside from giving concerts in Ioplin, VVebb City, Neosho, Monett, and other nearby cities, the French Choir made a trip to St. Louis in No- vember, where it appeared on the program of the State Teachers' Convention and gave a concert in the Pilgrim Congregational Church. Kansas City was the objective of the second major trip undertaken by the choir. Here the organization gave programs in the Country Club and the West- minster Congregational churches. Lambert S.

HISTORY I The Drury String quartet, under the direction of Gibson Walters, is composed of Marjorie Ann Shackelford, First Violin, lean Freeman, Second Violin, Rosemary Maxey, Viola, and Marjorie De Lange, Violin Cello. The girls, who have been playing together for the past five years, have al- ready won considerable recognition for their work. Two years ago they represented Missouri in the National Ensemble meet held in Chicago. In No- vember they played before a group of music super- visors in St. Louis, who met to discuss the problems of chamber music. One of the chief topics for dis- cussion was whether quartet playing should be en- couraged among student musicians. Since the lit- erature written for the quartet is limited almost entirely to the classics, it demands skilled technique. The Drury Quartet, which has been working to- ward perfecting its ensemble playing, was received favorably. In April of this year the quartet pre- l sented a concert, which was the culmination of a yearls successful work. It is quite a tribute to Drury to possess a string quartet which is rapidly developing into one of the finest organizations in the Southwest. Few people realize that the string quartet music is the most highly refined form of music written, and that it reaches perfection only when there exists among the players a dennite understanding both personal and musical. The girls are to be highly com- mended for their talent and persistence in attain- ing their goal. Page One Hzmdred Sixlcefz L I The Edmond In order tion that r under-clas The me for the se lege.

HISTORY U The Boys' Quartet, under the direction of C. Edmond Iarvis, was organized in September, 1934. In order that Drury might have a fine organiza- tion that could Work together over a long period, under-classmen Were chosen to be members. The members of the quartet receive scholarships for the services they do in Held-Work for the col- lege. They have been in demand both for local and for out-of-town appearances. Some of the towns in which they have performed are Walnut Grove, Ash Grove, Lockwood, Greenfield, Marion- ville, and Humansville. In Springfield they have appeared at Teachers, College, the Federal Prison, Sorosis Club, and the Home Economics Club. Like other musical organizations of the college, the boys' quartet strives to present the best of musical literature for the development and educa- tion of themselves as well as for the appreciation of their audiences. l MEMBERS OFirst Tenor, Paul Shoreack . . .

Stanley Skinner, was or- ganized in 1928 with an original membership of twenty mixed voices. Although the organization bore the name of the college, its status was extra- curricular, and its members were chosen from both students and townspeople whose singing abil- ity was of high rank. Through public concerts and great interest on the part of its members, the choir now numbers Hfty voices. The A Capella Choir has learned the best of unaccompanied choral literature, both sacred and secular, from many nationalities and periods. Most frequently represented were the German, Russian, Italian, Old English, French, and American schools of musical thought. In Ianuary, 1936, with the A Capella group as a nucleus, a larger chorus of eighty members was formed to sing larger works. It was named the Springfield Oratorio Society, and presented Men- delssohn's Elijah', in the spring. MEMBERS C Mrs. L. R. Anschutz . . . Elizabeth Bull . . . Kay Virginia Dull . . .

The student body and the faculty are to be commended upon the fine spirit of cooperation they have shown throughout the year. We Want to thank Dean and Mrs. Bennett for their patience while we were taking pictures in their home. We are indeed indebted for the financial aid given by the trustees without which it would have been impossible to publish the yearbook. We have been very fortunate in having contracts with firms that are specialists in their fields. Much' is due to these firms for any success that this book may have. The engraving was done by the Central Engraving Company of St. Louis which is ably represented by Mr. Weston. 'Many of the ideas for this book come directly from him. The printing was done by The William Jewell Press which is managed and operated by Mr. Harvey Ray, at William Iewell College. The photography was done by Lytle Studio of Springfield. The developing, enlarging, and printing of snapshot pictures was done by the Ferguson Studio of which Mr. Coorder is manager. Again may We say that it was the help of all these organizations and individuals that made it possible for us to edit the 1936 Sou'Wester. We think that the Book is worthy of our pride and We hope that it meets your approval. . THE STAFF.
