Health Department Thinks in Terms of National Defense Mary E. Thompson, Registered Nurse-7 Ethel E. Little, MD., Uni- versity of lllinois. NCLE SAM WANTS YOU fbut only if you are able to pass a rigid physical and mental examination. Eastern's health service has offered pre- liminary check-ups for the boys enter- ing the service that they might better determine their physical capacities in choosing special branches of work. A nation at war abroad must not be a nation fighting disease at home. Pre- vention rather than cure and precaution measures to keep more students in classes are the key notes of the new program launched by the health service for the year l94l-42. Democracy is de- pendent upon this healthful living. UST as successful flights demand skilled mechanics, modern designers, service menq likewise, a college must maintain a crew to provide powerg to perpetuate the scenic beauty of the grounds, and to keep the buildings ime macuately clean that the work of the institution might progress normally and efficiently. E. Clodfelter, head engineer: C. F. Monier, superintendent of the grounds: and G. Shafer, head janitor, are the men behind the scenes at Easternp the men who also serve that we as students may enjoy the best our college has to offer under the most ideal conditions.

MERICAN women must be phys- ically fit to meet the increasing demands of Work and planning for a nation at War. Eastern's Women's Physical Education department is step- ping up its classroom program, plac- ing greater emphasis upon vigorous types of activity which tend toward greater physical fitness. This has been an active and profit- able year. The first Basketball Clinic for Eastern Illinois high school teachers, and a dance analysis program were two of the Ways in which the depart- ment contributed to the present and future physical fitness of our youth.

ILOTS, soldiers, sailors, and civil- ians all need Well developed bodies. Staff members of the Men's Physical Education department were able to forgive the role that this national emer- gency played in shaping the outcome of the year's athletic program, realizing that they have sacrificed this year in order that our nation might have the best to offer for national defense. Coaches, service men, and Workers are all better fitted for the problem of guiding youth, defending our heritage, and keeping the wheels of industry ro- tating because of rigorous training in physical education. 1.

Al- ready part of the class of '42 has flown to the standard of their country, and Eastern is proud to record on its roll of honor the names of Paul Barnes, Harold Lee Hayes, Edward Bennels, Louis Ur- bansick, Wallace Wilson, Iames Giffin, William Wise, and Iohn Worland. Soon others will sprout Wings and fly from these gray walls and towers. ln their minds will only linger the colorful mem- ories of four past years. These capable seniors have distin- guished themselves in every field of activityfscholastic as well as social. Pilots of the class of '42 were Paul Iones, president: Carroll En.dsley, vice-presi- dent: Margaret Iean Weingand, secre- tary, and Dorothy Hensen, treasurer. The anbitious leaders in the scholastic field have been Katherine Hughes, Earl Oliver, loe Zupsich, and Wendell Blair. Betty Markel guided Alpha Tau Nu until it became Sigma Sigma Sigma: Dale Moore, Signca Tau Gamma, and Iohn Voigt, Phi Sigma Epsilon. Ed- Thirty THE Ward Weir, Edward Besch and Mar- garet Chamberlain have had journal- istic inciinations, while lane Abbott has been tops' socially on our campus. Mary Frances Gaumer, Players presi- dent, has been responsible for such pro- ductions as The Little Foxes. Artistic Ellen Henkie was president of Kappa Pig Iohn Eaton led Pi Omega Pig and Her- shel Collins, the Industrial Arts Club. As head geographer, Katherine Winkler has been tops: and also Brigitta Kuhn for leading the Choir. Elbert Fairchild has carried on as the mainstay of the Speech department. Mary Elliott, of social dancing fame, has guided the women's athletics, while lim Phipps has been an efficient president of the letter men. Delmar Nordquist had a finger in everything, he and Doc Saxton have been the executive officers of the Eastern State Club. This record is inspiring to those who will carry on and is an indication of what the seniors will do to keep the American eagle flying over us. They, too, have a duty to perform. .
