Elmer Sander, A.B., German Evansville, Indiana Student Union President, and business manager of the Glee Club for two years, — those are titles testifying to Sander ' s capac- ity for work. In addition, he was a lab as- sistant in Biology, and assistant in the busi- ness office. Elmer also pitched for the Pi- rates, and made the tennis team in his last two years. The campus will miss Sander next year. IRVIN Stegnek, A.B., History Billingsville, Missouri Pep is an unobtrusive fellow; no one sees very much of him. His chief claim to fame is his extreme speed on the basketball floor during the intramurals, and his effici- ency as ex-officio custodian in Dr. Bauer ' s classes. MiNA Trout, A.B., English Brookfield, Illinois We had the honor of enjoying Miss Trout ' s company in French classes for the past couple of years, and want to go on record right now as saying that we never, before or since, heard anyone hand out so many incorrect allusions to English Liter- ature as did Mina. She is vitally interested in dramatics, and during the past year was program chairman of Cues, the new dra- matic club. uinnnjinnniinAniinruinjmim 933£LMS Page Twenty-nine

Paul Rasche, A.B., Sociology St. Louis, Missouri Here is a man who hung up another world ' s record. He could crib more cigar- ettes per hour than any man in his weight class. Rasche yodelled a good baritone in the Glee Club for a couple of years, was a mainstay of the Pre-The Club, and kept a pair of white rats in his room. Arthur Reimler, A.B. History Elmhurst, Illinois When Swede isn ' t sitting in a classroom, smiling amiably, he is standing behind the counter at Hesse ' s — smiling amiably. He is easily the most phlegmatic and unruffled lad that ever came out of the academy; even being President of the Seniors didn ' t dis- turb him to any extent. He handled that motley crew admirably, although it remains to be seen whether they ' ll get through Sen- ior Week without flying at each other ' s throats. Edwin Riske, A.B., History Independence, Missouri Riske used to stand beside me in the bass section, and would often tell me when I was flat. (He was usually wrong, but I never told him. I never told him, either, that his radio used to keep me awake nights — that is, not in language that I would use here.) Ed deserves a lot of credit for getting the Glee Club through a tough year. As busi- ness manager during the depression (re- member the depression?) he worked hard to get concert tours. TjTjimifmnjmnLnnjiJTJi fage Twenty-eight

Sharvey Umbeck, A.B., Philosophy Chicago, Illinois Here is a lad who owns the all-time non- professional record for commuting between Elmhurst and Chicago. There is also a ru- mor that he played tennis in college, and, in fact, was captain of the squad, but that is only what I hear. He was also one of the many editors of the 1932-33 Elm Bark. Sharvey made the Spurned Club famous in the Elmhurst ' s Journalistic annals, and, I believe, was something of a basketball player, getting in enough quarters between trains to earn a letter. Leonard Weigel, A.B., Sociology Hoyleton, Illinois Len Weigel is the only man we know who ever sprained his ankle by leaping into a pond from which alas! the water had long since dried away. Len ' s good humor was never failing, and is probably keeping the boys at Eden awake nights now. As presi- dent of the Glee Club, he distinguished him- self for his ability to avoid making enemies and for a knack of smoking behind the bus without getting caught at it. Edwin Winnecke, A.B., Sociology Evansville, Indiana Winnecke stands out as one of the most obliging campus mailmen Elmhurst has ever had. What if he does read your post- cards, and announce publicly that he has a heavy letter for you, probably from your girl? Isn ' t he always willing to take your laundry down to the post-office, and chase you all over the campus with important blue letters? If Eddie is as conscientious a preacher as he is a student and mailman, he ' ll get places. iTjTjinnjinnnnfijmnjiJinnnnn ' le S5» m 933 ELMS Page Thirty
