ETTiEXE BAUEE, Biology ELMiiriisT, Illinois Bauer was one of the trio of biology oxers, and many of liis afternoons were spent in laboratories. Eugene was an al)le worker around the campus, either shoveling coal or keei)ing the campus grounds in order. His dubious artistic ability is evidenced in the painting job done on the remodeled rooms in the Old ] Iusic Hall. In the latter part of his college career, Bauer became a fixture in the Irion Hall lounge, and could be found there at a certain time every evening. WALTER BLOESCH, Philosophy Hyek, Indiana This ball-playing ability seems to run in the Bloesch family, because in Wally we have the second Bloesch ball-player. He was also talented as a pianist, but he kept this talent as a light hidden under the proverbial bushel. During his junior and senior years he was instrumental in keeping order and decorum on the third floor of South Hall as one of the freshman proctors. He did a good jol) of it, too, considering the material with which he had to work. ROBERT BRIGGEMATvT, Philosophy Siielbyvillk, Indiana Bob did an excellent job at tackle position on the Pirate football squad. The last few years have not seen him on the campus so much because his main interest was located a little west of Elmhurst. He was often seen in the Student Union room making a fourth at bridge or else acting as head kibitzer (and how he could kibitz ! ). We don ' t know how the coal is going to get to the boiler house with- out him as one of the crew. LAVEENE DAUDERMAlSrisr, Sociology Alhambka, Illinois Laverne was not one of the most voluble individuals in the senior class, but he had definite opinions on most important matters. He was interested in small group discussions, and invariably attended when an outside speaker held an open forum. He M-as active in the S. C. A., and was entrusted with the keeping of the financial records in his senior year. Although not on any athletic team, Laverne ' s interest in athletics was evidenced by his becoming the manager for the basketball team this past year. MARGARET DAA S, Biology Baloda Bazak, C. P., India Margaret was extremely interested in India, and was glad to furnish information regarding India to anyone that sought such knowledge. She was interested in her major and spent considerable time in the biology laboratory. I Iargaret had quite an athletic bent, and took part in the women ' s intramural program. She has been a member of the sextet, and she has always been a member of the Women ' s Glee Club. She was extremely vivacious, but a boy from the east rather toned her down. Page Sixteen

Class of 1938 Regretfully we take leave of the seniors, who, from their very first year on the campus, were recognized as a group of superior personalities. Not for a long time has the college had such a star- studded class. Under their lea dership student projects took a new- lease on life. The athletic teams had unusually successful seasons, restricted organizations bestirred themselves to more active lives, and the latent talents of the student body were brought out to more advantage due to the initiative of the senior class. Especially was this noticed in the field of written self-expression. The Elmhurst Forum, a new literary venture for the exjires- sion of student opinion, was launched largely under senior impetus, and senior editors guided the Elms and the Elm Bark. Other innova- tions made their appearance fostered by senior leaders, and the campus will miss the com- petent leadership of the senior class. Page Fifteen

Page Seventeen EUTH DAVIS, Sociology BaLODA BaZAK, C. p., IXDIA Many people thought of Euth as a quiet, reserved type of girl, but those who really knew her thought differently. She was as ambitious a cut-up as one could imagine. She particularly enjoyed annoying people while they were eating. Another characteristic and perfectly natural trait was her love of Mother India ; she was never too busy to talk about this subject. Naturally such a charm- ing girl could not go through college without gaining the attentions of a young man ; need more be said ? DAWN DEYNAN, Sociology Elmhurst, Illinois Dawn was one of the main actresses in the College Theater. Her appearance in numerous Theater productions evidenced her stage ability. She took an active part in the activities of the Women ' s Glee Club and served this organization as secretary during her senior year. Dawn was rumored to have spent more money on special delivery stamps than anyone on the campus ; the stamps M ent on letters which were hurried down to the Eden campus where they gladdened the heart of an embryo minister. Here is one of the two history majors in the class. Ebert was too busy working in the Commons and studying to bother about doing much else. However, he did take an active interest in the intramural program and was instrumental in helping the class of ' 38 in its various intramural successes. During the summer months he worked (?) on the summer campus crew. Ebert and his pipe were always together, and whenever there was a college activity, he was there to support it. Dorothea was always occupied in her sewing occupation. After all, a girl must have some things done before she founds her home. Although sewing took much of her time, she could ox biology as well as any of the trio. During her under-classman years she was a memlicr of the College Theater and appeared in several of its pro- ductions. Whenever we think of Dorothea, we must also think of the male aliout whom she was constantly talking — My Ben. EOBEET HAPPEL, German East St. Louis, Illinois The fellows in South Hall will never forget (and liardly ever forgive) Happel ' s yodeling to the accompaniment of liis ukelele. In spite of this and other diversions he was an honor roll student. His athletic interest was centered around the national game of base- ball. He won a major reward in this sport as an outfielder. He was a member of the Glee Club for four years and also of the College Theater, and he was active in both of these extra-curricular activ- ities.
