BOWEN BALDAUF KALLMEYER THE CLASS OF 1931 Robert J. Baldauf, President Edwin H. Kallmeyer, V. Pres. Edgar Bonven III, Secy-Trecn. 1927 saw sixty Freshmen enter Elmhurst College. 1931 sees 15 Seniors leave their Alma Mater! The class of 1931 boasts of being the first class to leave Elmhurst since the inau- guration of co-education. It is the only class that is strictly stag. It has the honorable distinction of being the graduating class during the sixtieth year of our Alma Mater. As Freshmen, the class took their initiation like men. As Sophomores, the men began to take part in extra-curricular activities and to show their varied talents. They placed members on the Elm Bark staff, in the Glee Club, on athletic aggregations, and in almost all of the organizations on the campus. As Juniors, the class continued to show their many abilities, and also inaugurating a Class Day. They held several theatre parties and social functions throughout the year. As Seniors, the class became still smaller in numbers but increased in importance. They contributed to every or- ganization on the campus, having in their midst the president of the Student Union, the president of the Elmhurst Theatre, the editor and associate editor of the Elms of 1931, besides many other officers and members of various staffs. Throughout the four years of existence at Elmhurst, the class of ' 3 1 has been known as a well-organized class. They stood together during their initiation and each member took an active interest in all class activities, and social functions. In their Senior year they became more conspicuous than any other class before them, due to the scarlet class coats. Their float in the Homecoming parade won for them the silver cup. Their social, given during the latter part of the year, was one of the most outstanding events of the school year. The members of the class of thirty-one has taken as its slogan Service, and throughout its existence it has upheld this slogan. Various members of the class have chosen the ministry for their profession and will continue to u ' -e and live up to their motto. It has seen the beginning of the Greater Elmhurst and as alumni the members have pledged themselves to uphold the honor of our y lma Mater. The sands of Time have decided that we must end our college career. W ' e leave these noble halls and go into various fields of activity, but not without a tear or a sigh of regret.

ROBERT J. BALDAUF Maslllon, Ohio A.B. — Sociology Behold the noble class president! Bob has served our class well ever since he entered Elmhurst. He has taken part in all class functions for the past four years and for the last two years has served us in the capacity of leader. Achievements are second nature to Bob. During his four years at Elmhurst he has attained an enviable scholastic record. Besides this he has been very ac- tive on the Elm Bark staff, acting in the capacity of managing editor in successive years. He is a member of the Liberal- I. R. C. and last but not least, he is also the president of the Student Union. For the last two years he has been working in a downtown grocery store and has made himself well-liked by many of the townspeople, who like him also because of his red hair. He is a leader in any group and the party or social function would not be a success without Bob around. RUBEN BIERBAUM Boonville, Indiana A. B. — History Ruben is a student that Indiana may well be proud of. He was always near the top of the list in all his classes. As president of the Y he made that or- ganization one of the most active on the campus. He took part in other extra- curricular activities including the Band, Elm Bark and Glee Club. He was always busy with something. His philosophy of life that everything could be done better was a goal toward which he aspired. His willingness to work and his active interest in whatever he participated made him stand out as one of the leaders of our class. Musically he is a clarinetist and a sing- er. This year he entered Eden and be- came the business manager of the glee club, also singing in the quartette. Few men could compete with him as an active member of the various organizations and still have time to mix with the fellows socially. We predict a rosy future. Page }0
