In the early part of the year 1850, the Ohio Synod of the Reformed Church in the United States made provi- sion for the founding of a college. The college began its work in the Tarlton, Ohio, High School build- ing. It soon became evident that this location was not SIX suitable. In the fall the school was moved to Tiffin, and the name was changed from Tarlton College to Heidelberg College. November 18, 1850 the school was formally opened, in rooms rented for the purpose. On the first day seven students enrolled, but by the end of the year there were one hundred and forty-nine. Acad- emy, college, and seminary courses were offered. From the first Heidel- berg has been co-educational, and it is believed by many authorities that it is the second co-educational college established in America. A number of years later the acad- emy was discontinued and the semi- nary was moved to Dayton, Ohio. The courses have been altered from time to time to meet the demands of progressive education. Today there are the Arts, the Science, the Educa- tion, and the Business Administration courses, as well as the Conservatory of Music. A Home Eco- nomics Department is to be added next year. Heidelberg has always emphasized the development of char- acter and personality, as well as the development of the mind. From her Halls have gone men and women with high ideals and noble aspirations.

Sweet Alma Home N0 NOT A MODEL . . . . JUST A MINIATURE VIEW SEVEN I EIGHT MAY REVE OTTO G. SCHMIDT, 1876- 1936, was an active and enthusiastic leader at Heidelberg during his student days here. After his graduation in 1899, his activeness and en- thusiasm increased when he served from 1922- 1936 as a member Of its Board Of Trustees. As president Of the Board from 1932-1936, he was even more successful. In him-the Board found a RENT MEMORIES LIVE leader Whom all were ready to serve. Mr. Schmidt was a faithful friend of higher educa- tion. . .who manifested his desire to promote the things Of the mind and Of the spirit. 'lLet us believe that in the silence Of the re- ceding world he heard the great waves break- ing on the farther shore and felt. . .the breath of the eternal morning. HEIDELBERG'S BOARD OF TRUSTEES E.

For many years both of them have given their very lives to the amplifica- tion of our Alma Mater. Through their efforts the college has advanced and prospered. Dr. Miller has dreamed dreams for Heidelberg, and many of those dreams have materialized. He has proposed numerous plans, many of which have been accepted. During his presidency the college endowment has reached nearly a million dollars. This represents more than so many dollarsg it represents the work and the reward of an untiring administrator. Dr. and Mrs. Miller's interest in the college has not been limited to Heidelberg as an institution. They take an especial interest in the stu- dents who matriculate within her walls. The president's home is open to the students, who always find a welcome there. The president and his wife are a very vital part of our col- lege. They have given so much to it that alumni and friends naturally and unconsciously think of them, when their thoughts drift back to Heidelberg. Untiring labor, always giving his best is typical of our president. Faith in our capabilities and his helping hand continually stretched forward in brotherly love gained our lasting respect.

AT HEIDELBERG FROM THE ALUMNI TO THE YOUTH OF HEIDELBERG WE, THE ALUMNI, GREET THL: stu- dents of Heidelberg and congratulate those of you who are about to grad- uate. You have been found faithful in supporting the school in all its in- terests and activities, and in furthering the ideals of the institution we call our Alma Mater. Much of the success and fine spirit accom- plished this year has been due to your coop- eration with both fellow students and faculty. As you go out from the life of the campus, may you carry with you the fondest memories, treasured accom- plishments and attachments, and last but by no means least, a spirit of loyalty that will always mean much to you and to your Alma Mater Wherever you go. Students and Alumni are the back- bone of every college. You as students are part of the college for four years, but as Alumni, you will be a part for the rest of your life. Vile trust that the enthusiasm aroused this year will remain with you after you have be- come an Alumnus, for upon it depends the future of Heidelberg. Wfith this high purpose in mind, the Association has been divided into twelve districts over each of which there is a regional representative. Numerous organizations have been formed also in various cities and counties to keep up enthusiasm among the Alumni and to interest prospec- tive students in our Col- lege. The Alumni ap- point four members of the Board of Trustees to help in the operation of Heidelberg. The Alumni Associa- tion fosters also the Alumni Living Endow- ment Fund to provide a source for a number of scholarships given in the spring of each year to outstanding high school seniors. Thus the Association is doing its part and challenges the oncoming graduates to continue doing their part. May the desire for a bigger and better Heidelberg in the years to come be a living bond between us. Russell R. Kmmmes ELEVEI ADMINISTRATION DEPARTMENT THE DEAN OF THE COLLEGE, Francis VV. Kennedy, surely needs no introduction to you. His whimsical smile greeted you upon arrival, it cheered you on in spite of low estimates, and it sent you on your way after four years of preparation with a glad heart and a welcoming hand extended toward the greater expe- riences of life. Freshmen long re- member the suggestions delivered by Dean Kennedy during freshman week: and as for chapel attendance, can't you all see how greatly it has im- proved this past year? The Dean was one of the leading exponents for changing the daily chapel program. The assembly on Friday mornings may be credited to his foresight. Upon receiving notice of hve chapel cuts, and a request for an interview... INTRUSTED WITH THE GENERAL WELFARE OF OUR COLLEGE TWELVE reminiscences of by-gone days and talk of gladioli bulbs often changed the summons to his office from a task, too long put off, to a most enjoyable visit. VVhen Dr. Miller became ill so suddenly, Dean Kennedy capably took over as many duties as he could assume, and has carried them to a gracious fulfillment. As the year draws to a close, his interest tlits from home to politics, to his little grandson, Billy, and to the cottage on the lake. E. R.

FDURTEEN CAMPUS LEADERS-THE STUDENT CUUNGIL THE STUDENT COUNCIL MARCHEs ON under the leadership of its presidents, Ernest Pierce and Margaret Blemker. The ordinary duties are accepted eagerly. The Tricolor school witnesses the most elaborate Homecoming in its history. This body lends its sup- port when Heidelberg is host to a thousand Hi-Y boys, to keen deba ters, and to high school honor students. Dances and week-end activities are planned to keep apace with the ever- growing desire for expansion of the social program. But the more funda- mental tasks of the council are not forgotten. Heidelberg's advancement is the center of all plans, in order that the students might give their best to her who has given so much to them.

WHAT a tribute they are to the loyalty and devotion of parents and grandparents! Generation after generation they come to college with a sense of assurance and confidence, which is an asset to them and to the school. lt has been said that Cambridge University owes much of its strength and prestige to the fact that . one generation after an- other has attended there. It is one of the highest tributes the alumni can pay the school of their I choice. Heidelberg has a number of such loyal alumni, who have intrusted the education of their children to their Alma Mater. There are many second and third generation students on the campus. One out of ten of the Junior Class are of the third generation. In the present student body the follow- ing are third generation Heidelbergers: Martha Keller, Elizabeth Martin, Philip Miller, james Beam, Kathryn Beck, Jeanne Krammes, John Martin, Florence Shumaker, Marjorie Kleck- ner, Martha Miller, Lucy Ann Benne- hoff, and Vllilbert Martin. This learned I from the shadow of a tree, That to and fro did sway against the wall, OW shadowed selves, our influence may fall Where we can never be. SGHULARSHIPS AND AWARDS HEIDELBERG COLLEGE, AS OTHER IN- stitutions of high learning, has made provision for those students who show good scholastic standing and for those who are in need of financial assistance. At the present time approximately 7512, of students attending this school are earning some of their fees. The scholarships open to high school seniors are awarded on a com- petitive basis. There is a prize of 35100 for first and 3550 for second place in each one of the examinations offered. The tests are given in nearly all fields of cultural interest. Freshmen of the college have oppor- tunity to win many awards for pro- ficiency in their studies. Those three students holding the first three places in their class in Latin are winners of the VVilliard Memorial Prize. The Alexander and Christina Garver Prize is awarded to two students doing the best work in English composition. Extempore speaking allows five fresh- men to win the VVilliam R. Reiter Memorial Prize. Sophomores are eligible to compete for only one prize-the Stoner Me- morial Prize for those having the highest grades during their freshman and sophomore years. The Kefauver Memorial prize fol- lows the same line and awards the prizes to two Juniors with the highest grades for the year. Those Juniors interested in Oratory compete for the B. F. Cockayne Prize. Seniors, quite naturally, have the greatest number of prizes awarded. Thomas F. Keller established a prize for those three seniors who have the highest grades throughout all four years of college. The E. J. Shives Memorial Prize was endowed for the benefit of the two most worthy stu- dents of Chemistry. The E. J. Brand Prize may be awarded to a junior or senior who shows outstanding achieve- ment in the field of Physics. There are numerous other funds which are available for students need- ing help. One of the most important is the George C. Kalbfieisch scholar- ship which sends four students, grad- uates of the High School of the National Orphans' Home of the jr. O.U.A.M. The Ada Lester Jones Memorial and the VVinifred Comstock Aaron are designed to give financial assistance to worthy students. There are also several scholarships which are open to young men preparing for the ministry of the Reformed Church. And so on to another year of awards, prizes, and scholarships.

Of course we started off with the annual stag at Bacon's Island. It was great fun. Then this fall we came out in speedball. Then after the football season we placed three lettermen. But things really began to move the first part of this semester. For about two weeks the hall looked like a hectic nightmare. Everyone was bustling hither and yon trying to do his bit in redecorating the place. Off came the wall paper and new paper was put on. The drapes came in for a long anticipated cleaning. Paint pots were strewn about the place. Even the whole floor received several coats of new paint. For several days one slipped cautiously into the hall, fearing to tread upon a freshly painted spot. Then after the hall was finished, we decided to celebrate. Vile gave an Open House inviting the whole campus. Here we spent the time with cards, chess and movies-foh, yes, T forgot monopoly. This game has certainly infected some of our brethern, who slip up here on the least provocation and spend hours buying and selling and going places. Then to finish things off we donned new jackets. These are maroon with grey sleeves and the seal of the society on the left side. Then came pledging and our group of pledges prepared for the ordeal of initiation. We forced the poor children to run the entire gambit of foolery. XNith Cicero's Oration and hobby-horses and crazy costumes, the campus was well aware that our society was present. Then we came to the day of reckoning in the hall. Then a party afterwards at the Oriental, where the freshmen were repaid for the days of abuse by a steak dinner. . .

S' AIN KEY THE EXGELSIOR LITERARY SOCIETY THIS HAS BEEN ANOTHER GREAT YEAR FOR HEIDELBERGVS OLDEST LIT- erary society, Excelsior. Completing eighty-four years of activity it enters its anniversary year with the enthusiasm of its founders still keen and growing. Excelsior has made enviable progress this year in its work. VVithin the society and on the campus its work has been of the highest quality. An unusually strong spirit of fellowship was evidenced in the stags which it sponsored. There was the fall stag at Lake Mohawk, the Thanks- giving stag at the Gibson'Hotel, and the spring stag which were all well attended by students and alumni who enjoyed them to a person. The banquet at the Shawhan Hotel, the XNashington's Day Program, the serenaders, the new jackets, the open program, the open house at the Commons, and the new radio all go together to make this one of Excel- sior's best years, Excelsior will lose a large senior group this year who for three years have been influential on the campus. There are, however, a great bunch of freshmen who were initiated into the society and who give every evi- dence of being quite capable of taking the places of those graduating. l A V l l TY SEV l l I ' i l l I Y-EIG Dear .,,4..., : ANOTHER scHoOL YEAR EAoEs AVVAY IN THE sTRAiNs OF A HHEIDH sER- enade and we are surprised to find that times spent in good fellowship can pass so quickly. The society year began with the traditional serenade and stag along the river. Events and achievements pyramided as tempus fugited merrily along. Dn Homecoming Day the annual cross-country run brought fresh laurels to Nu Sigma Alpha with Heid runners taking four of the first five places.

VVould a newsy letter of our Hespie activities of the year make amends? First there was a clever little banquet in our lit hall, with after- dinner speeches and everything. QThose after-dinner speeches afforded many laughs and after that meal, oh mel Then we girls entertained guests at a VX7inter Carnival in France Hall Dining Room, where a huge snowman guarded the eats, and gay balloons added color and merriment. Soon pledging rolled laround, and we took in a grand bunch of girls: Mary jane Buehler, Mitsu Mori, Dorothy Schnatz, Bertha Flora, Elizabeth Rhorbacker and Anna Lee Meeker. How happy we werel After the Intersociety Banquet we had a darling pledge party. The Lit hall took on the atmosphere of the 1700's even to our hostesses, the charming young colonial misses, in their billowing skirts. You would have enjoyed Virginia Reelingv to those southern airs. XNe had the true colonial atmosphere even to a group of bashful colored singers, who entertained with delightful lullabies. Then came initiation when haughty pledges humbled themselves under the firm hands of their masters, the sophomores. They washed windows, cleaned rooms, and gathered statistics for them. How many tortures and weird apparels they endured for theml QOnly too well does Bertha know the emptiness of dessertless mealsj Informal initiation took place at Harriet Keller's home in the country. Each had a grand time stuffing herself with things that, strangely enough, didn't seem to go together. YNho cared if the weiner had dropped off the stick or if the marshmallow was more than slightly burned? Once again we thrilled to the ceremony at the formal initiation in the Lit hall. There was many a sad heart and teary eye at the singing out of our Seniors.

The day of our Phi Doe last fall, it rained cats and dogs, so instead of our outdoor frolic, we had our picnic in Hossler's recreation room. You know how we always have such good times together anyway, so we had just as much fun as though we had been out under blue skies. On February 28, we took the men to Knestricts' Tea Room for a Blues Dinner-ebut we didn't feel blue. I can tell you that! The favors for the fellows were black leather billfolds-you know to hold their money? Then in March, the seniors were hostesses at a party held in the Lit Hall. VX7e all went as movie stars. You should have seen Charlie Chaplin dancing with Stepin Eetchit, and Laurel and Hardy doing a comedy skit. And food? Y ou can bet there was. No Hollywood diets that night! Ten grand pledges, who decided to become seekers of the truth , were honored at a darling Dutch party after the Inter-Society Banquet. There were windmills, tulips, and everything. I wish that you could have seen some of the girls trying to dance in wooden shoes. It was a scream! After Easter, the pledges were more or less subdued by stern Hsoph bosses . Hal Hal 'member?

VVith the changing of times and the modern stress on the language of our day, the 1 A TY EIGHT LANGUAGE DEPARTMENT sciences and other phases of knowl- edge, Latin and Greek, though still very important subjects of study, have now been supplemented by the Romance languages and by German. Today we have in Heidelberg not only the departments of Latin and Greek, but also the departments of French, Italian, Spanish, and German. Besides beginning Latin courses, there are offered courses covering Cicero and Virgil, Pliny, Ovid, Ro- man Private and Public Life, Roman Correspondence, Classical Drama, and courses in composition and syntax. In Greek, Homer, Plato, and the New Testament, Greek is studied. The study of the styles of Greek prose also proves very interesting. The French Language has proved none the less interesting. Along with grammar and phonetics are studied French literature, and French drama. The Italian tongue is not used extensively by students. The study of its grammar and prose composition enables a student to read ordinary historical or scientific prose. After learning the essentials of Spanish grammar and gaining the ability to read and speak more difficult prose, more advanced courses are offered in Spanish literature and com- position. German has been a favorite study of many. Interesting stories are read along with the more important liter- ature, including the study of literary movements in Germany, Modern Drama and German Classics. PROF. A. D. KELLER .....

The aim of the Kil set forth at the beginning of the year has been closely adhered to. Weekly meetings-Monday nights at seven O'clock-to plan the week's edition led to greater cooperation and cheerful understanding of the work involved. The fact that upperclass- men only were on the staff led to a fixed policy and to clear-cut articles. Freshmen accepted toward the end of the year were chosen with quality in mind. An innovation for college news- papers was introduced by Editor Tom Zoller with the guest editorials from other schools. The Kil also sponsored the first inter-collegiate ping-pong tournament. Kil staff members gathered one Monday and journeyed to the Ritz where Dave Britton entertained edi- torial and business staffs. Then a trip to the American. Another trip for the editorial staff-out to Harsh- man's print shop-hot lead, linotype, rollers, presses-and a new language learned. Editor Zoller at the helm guided his crew most successfully, and Manager Sprow collected ads, made money and the Kil breaks better than even on expenses. An entirely different trip-one to Houston, Texas, for Pi Kappa Delta claimed Zoller and Shinn. The editing falls to Best, who will pilot the ship next year.

The department has its headquarters in Science Hall, a beautiful building, donated by Mrs. Della Laird. Biology is of vital inter- est because it is the science of life. It offers oppor- tunity for the study of botany, entomology, orni- thology, zoology, and all physiology courses. The courses in chemistry are de- signed to meet the requirements of QS three types of students: those who desire a general knowledge, of chem- istry for a Liberal Arts course, will be interested in general and organic chemistry. Pre-professional students also find courses suited to their needs. The study of qualitative and quan- titative analysis, organic and physical chemistry is advised as desirable for chemistry majors. Besides the geology recitations and lecture Work, there are excursions to neighboring points of interest, work on maps, geological folios, and rock types and fossils. The miner- alogy classes will find the Charles H. jones mineral collection of special interest. The specimens were gathered from all parts of the world and given to Heidelberg by Mr. Jones. It is difficult to realize the true value of such a wonderful and complete collection. After studying the gen- eral principles of physics, the study of the radio, light, heat, sound, and vac- uum tubes have proved helpful, especially to engineering stu- dents. There are also courses adapt- able to pre-medical students. The mathematics courses in all forms of algebra, geometry, calculus, surveying, equations, and mechanics, are particularly suited to science and engineering students.

SE VENTY-F 0 ACTIVITIES FURM PATTERNS OF SOCI ETY THE INTRODUCTORY COURSE IN SOCIAL Science, including both economics and sociology, is especially important be- cause it opens the way to the study of all other Social Sciences. Of special importance to us is the study of our national and state govern- ments. None the less in- teresting to students of political science are Euro- pean governments, inter- national organization, and rt-c world problems. Along with the latter, international law and politics are of value. The pathology of society, together with more fundamental problems in human association, particularly labor conditions in the U. S., deserve careful research. Criminology, Pen- ology, Rural Sociology, Anthropology, the study of the family and social control are worthwhile. The study of principles of economic behavior and problems such as effi- ciency in production and different state and international economic pol- icies is desirable because it concerns the economic life of the people. Money and Credit, Public Finance, Taxation, Labor Problems, Immigra- tion, Social Work, Busi- ness, and Human VVelfare are a few of the important courses offered with others concerning trade and eco- nomic and social theories. In history courses the political, social, constitu- tional, and industrial sides are emphasized equally. History helps one to have a more practical view of modern life, and acts as a basis for broad culture. Courses are offered in the studying of Euro- pean and American history, history of England, Medieval history, Eco- nomic history of the U. S. and Europe. Also Modern wars and Ancient his- tory have proved very interesting.

Day Man builds him great machines to ease his toil, The thunder of his engines fills the air, Wlhere once was heard the gentle song of birds, The music of God's love, so rich and rare. He rushes madly at his work or play, Nor pauses to enjoy the things God made, He fills the days and nights with lust and greed, And tramples beauty in his rush for trade. VVhile from above the Lord, who made the earth And heaven and sea, and all that in them dwell, Looks down and smiles upon his children all, Playing with toys, pretending they do well.

EIGHTY 1 IT IS IN THESE THREE DEPARTMENTS that one receives the sparks of new hopes and aspirations that spurs him on to greater height. Remembering that they build too low who build beneath the skies , may we kindle these sparks until they become glow- ing realizations. These subjects help us to better understand one another and to live a fuller life together. The Psychology department offers courses in Elementary Laboratory and Advanced Psychology, Psychol- ogy of Childhood and Adolescence, Psychology of Mental Hygiene, and Psychology of Aesthetic Apprecia- tion. The courses are all interesting and help one greatly in his relations with people, in whatever occupation he may choose to follow. The Religious department offers one a wide range of subjects. They afford the opportunity to learn of the customs, ages, characters, and litera- ture of Bible times. The Life of Christ is particularly a wonderful study. These subjects help to a great extent in helping us to understand the liter- ature of the Bible, and in helping us to understand the activities of the church today. The missionary movements are studied in the light of their historical and religious values. Everyone is interested in the rea- sons, powers, and laws behind certain phenomena. Philosophy gives an ex- planation of all these not only con- cerning life itself but logic, conduct, religion, and even science. All of these always have been, are, and always will be of vital importance. 'HILUSOPHY DEPARTME A SYMPATHETIC, UNDER- F standing friend of the students, Dr. J. W. L. Jones carries on his work as professor of psychol- ogy, teaching studies in general psychology, theory, and aesthetic ap- preciation. Not only in the classroom but also in outside activities, Dr. Jones is always ready to lend to an appreciative student-body his inter- est and support. l i Realizing that the foundation of character is religion, instruction in the Bible is capably and interestingly given by Dr. H. L. Beam, who has endeared him- self to the students by his years of loyal service. His personality is made even more winning by his keen sense of humor and his friendliness. Dr. Beam reached the age of retirement last year ' but he very kindly con- sented to continue in V his service until another instructor was found. For a number of years he has been the college registrar.

Heidelberg is a grand school, everyone is so friendly to us is merely a typical comment on the school spirit and campus coopera- tion. High School juniors and seniors descended on Tiffin one thousand strong for a Hi-Y convention. Y.M. C.A. served as chairman for the gathering and their building in town was chief headquarters. The women of Heidelberg were prominent in the entertaining end of the deal and Hi-Y boys had the time of their lives in securing autographs, or in Hsnitch- ing cakes at the teas served in France Hall, VVilliard Hall, and the College Commons. Miss Partridge, our Dean of VVomen, was a great favorite with the boys and they all got dates with real college co-eds that evening. Vlfhat a story for the fellows at home! Chapel talks by David Robel and George Campbell gave inspiration to many. Bi-weekly vesper services con- tacted fewer people, but idealism and its portrayal were never missing.

Led by its capable president, the Y year was ushered in by the Big and Little Sister project and by the Big Mixer. The Freshman Commission busied themselves with discussion groups and social times. Very successful vesper services were conducted by the Wor- ship Committee. The Golden jubilee was undoubt- edly the most outstanding event of the school year. The celebration began with a special chapel service on the history of the Y. VV. C. A. at Heidel- berg. Then the social committee planned the merriest of birthday parties in her honor. The climax came with the Golden jubilee Banquet at the Commons, where more than two hundred were gathered to aid in this gala celebration. A very effective Communion Commemoration Service at Trinity Church concluded the jubilee. The social committee planned inter- esting entertainment in the forms of parties and teas. One of the nicest functions was the week when each girl planned how she could do some- thing secretly for her Heart Sister. The installation of next year's cabinet was accompanied by the beautiful candle-light service. Lots of luck and success to you, Y. VV. leaders of 1937. EIG IITY-THR HEIDELBERG AND HER INTERESTS ACROSS THE SEAS HEIDELBERG HAS ALNVAYS BEEN IN- V terested in widening her horizons. In trying to accomplish these ends she has turned her thought to people across the seas. Her interest in other countries and in other nationalities, no doubt, has been height- ened by the foreign stu- dents who have sought HTY-F0 further knowledge Within her walls. Active participation in a definite project has been carried on during the years with varying degrees of interest. Several years ago the student body undertook the task of building a chapel for a needy group of people in X Japan. After the chapel had been built and paid for, progressive stu- dents investigated the possibilities of turning their attention to another field of work. After much considera- tion the committee decided that work should be carried on in China. The Huping Agricultural School became the scene of college endeavors. It was decided that the student body should provide a Heidelberg fund by which certain worthy ChiI16S6 boys could be given scholarships to Huping. The picture shows the boys who were helped last year through this fund. Although Heidelberg's primary interest during the last three years has been in China, yet other fields of work have not been forgotten. These have been taken care of by con- ventions and conferences which some of the students have attended. Con- tacts with other peoples have helped in giving Heidelberg students an international viewpoint. l Seated: Meid Becker, Robert Shisler, Paul Reese, Maurice Riedesel, Fred Zauggg Standing: Roger Shinn, Donald Powers, Richard Vitz, Harold Holtom, VVilliam Gradwohl THE MINISTERIAL ASSOCIATION ,... more than an organization of future preachers. . .but including those def- initely interested in Christian service ...bound together by the bands of common cause and purpose...spir- itual fellowship. . .worthwhile meet- ings and discussions. . .trying to find a rich and complete knowledge of God and of His ways .,.. outside speakers address the group. . .Dr. Charles E.

A man is educated who knows how to make a tool of every faculty- how to open it, how to keep it sharp, and how to apply it to all practical purposes.

The work of the department is under the supervision of men who are keenly interested in education. These men take their work seriously and earnestly. The result of their work is illustrated by a remark which was made by a high school superin- tendent a few Weeks ago. In a gather- ing of superintendents he said, I have yet to receive a teacher from Heidelberg who has not proved satis- factory. , The classes of the Education De- partment are held in the Administra- tion Building. In this building would- be teachers are taught the theoretical principles of teaching, While the T INEULGATING SOUND EDUGATIO PRINCIP NAL L schools of Tiffin, Bloomville, and Old Fort become the seats of practice teaching.

Under his leadership and with the advice of Professor VVilliams and Professor Lancaster the club spent some profitable times together. The members gained new ideas and experiences which will aid them in becoming efficient teachers. The culmination of the year's activities came with the annual spring banquet, which was held at the Methodist Episcopal Church. The tables were decorated in yellow and white. Sprigs of barberry offered a contrast to the candles and the favors. The main speaker of the evening was Superintendent B. L. Pierce of the Erie County Schools. His talk, which was based on his experiences with high school teachers, was instructional as well as entertaining. VVith the close of the banquet came the finish of another year. To some it was the last time that they would be an active member of the club. To others it was just the end of another year. EIG HTY-NINE PUBLIC S5 'r:..gn DEPARTMENT GOOD SPEECH TRAINING is ONE OF the most essential aids in life. Formerly, the culture received, the ability to give readings skilfully, and the like, were the main reasons for taking special speech training. Now it is realized that speech is basically and fundamentally a means of communicating our thoughts and ideas to others. It is only natural that we should want to be able to convey our thoughts in the most intelligent, understandable, and effective manner. The Speech Department of Heidel- berg College, headed by Prof. H. D. Hopkins, offers a number of very helpful courses in the speech line. The Prin- ciples of Speech course, specifically a beginner's course, and designed espe- cially for Freshmen and Sophomores, is elective. Those who have a special ' ' 1 MAKER OF ACTORS DEBATERS ORATORS TEACHERS,FRIENDS NINETY interest in speech may take the courses Offered in Speech Principles which in- clude the study of oratory and speech- making. These, along with a course in Argumentation, are especially adapted to those who are planning to go into the ministry or into the field of law. Those who are interested in drama find useful courses in the study of drama and play production. Also, there is a course in the interpretation Of dramatic reading. In addition to these courses, there is a special course offered for those desiring to teach. Professor Hopkins is one of the best. His stud- ents value his friendship and follow his teachings.

NIN ETY-ONE HERE-BOTH SIDES 0F THE QUESTION THE LIFE or A HEIDELBERG DEBATER is one that can never be forgotten, it is one of the high points of his college education. There are not only hours of work pouring over books, maga- zines, and newspapers but also many more hours of associatons with fellow Heidelbergers and forensic students from other colleges. Trips that are made in a hurry to near-by colleges, trips that take one away from the college a day or two, trips that prove to be worth much in gaining actual living experiences are the part of the life of every debater and orator. A Women s Debate Martha Ward, Dawn Spade, Mary Ellen Sacksteder, Barbara Esterly, Marie Zwierlein, Louise Nader Mens Debate Thomas Hessberger, Edwin Bloxham, Wilson Best, Robert Fullerton, Professor Hopkins, Jack Matthews, Roger Shinn THE OHIO BETA CHAPTER OF P1 Kappa Delta at Heidelberg is one of the most active organizations on the campus. The members of Pi Kappa Delta are chosen for their work in the field of forensics and are rewarded this honor upon the basis of qual- iHcations set up by the national organization. The field of work of Pi Kappa Delta has become wider as the years roll by. This year it accomplished much not only in providing for experience in speech for all interested in this type of work, but also made it pos- sible for many contacts to be made both with the citizens of Tiffin and with high school students from all sections of Ohio. Social activities were part of the program for the year. The annual formal banquet in the fall opened the program, and it was brought to a climax with the tri- chapter banquet at which representa- tives from Bowling Green, Toledo, and Heidelberg were present. Formal initiation of new members was part of the program. The annual open forum sponsored by Pi Kappa Delta brought to the campus five prominent speakers who discussed important problems of the day. Carlton K. Matson, Avery G. Clinger, Dale Cox, Harrison B. Mc- Graw, and Arch D. Schultz were those who brought the information which was the result of their experiences in their respective fields. The financial end of the program was met through the activities of the members of the organization selling sponsors tickets to the citizens of Tiffin. This part of Pi Kappa Delta's program made pos- sible for Heidelberg to come a little closer in its relations to Tiffin as well as providing a valuable source of infor- mation upon the various prob- lems that face everyone today. The High School Forensic Tournament was the second of the larger projects spon- sored by Pi Kappa Delta. It brought to the campus 200 of the best high school students from 37 different schools of Ohio. The contest offered to the winners in both debate and ora- tory scholarships at Heidelberg and gave many of the students a chance to participate in debates that other- wise they never would have had. The tournament has become the climax of the forensic activities of many of the schools of this section of Ohio. The climax for the Heidelberg de- baters and orators was the trip to Houston, Texas to the national tour- nament. Five of the members and Professor Hopkins made this trip by auto. They competed in debate, oratory, and extempore speaking.

She is a graduate of the Cleveland School of Art. The courses which she offers are many and varied, attracting both town and college students. Miss Schaad is appreciated for many reasons but most of all for her keen sense of humor, her patience and her helpfulness. She is never too busy to look up some print that one needs as an illustration, to make sugges- tions for party decorations, or to aid another department in some project. During Com- m e n c e m e n t VVeek she opens the studio to vis- itors. A careful observer will see not only the finished articles of the art year, but he will see also Miss Schaad's patience reflected. In this department one may find both theoretical and technical courses offered. The theoretical courses are History of Art, Design, Art Apprecia- tion, Public School Art, and Interior Decoration. Those gifted in drawing and painting would enjoy working with the following: pen and ink, charcoal, oils, water colors, pastels, china, batik, and pottery.

Every- one loves it even though he is not interested in delving into the subject. VVith the development of this art has been the invention of musical instruments. The Conservatory of Music offers, along with its theory, courses in Ear Training, Sight Reading, Harmony, Counterpoint, and Pedagogy, courses of study in Voice, Piano, Organ, and String and VV ind Instruments. Besides the general music course, there is a course in Public School Music. Every year Heidelberg offers a Worthwhile concert course. This gives an opportunity, not only to music students, but also to the general stu- dent body, to hear noted musicians. Also, each year, a group of students have the opportunity to go to Toledo to hear a series of concerts given by famed artists. The Conservatory of Music was established in 1885 and has developed the grand opportunities offered now to lovers of music. A CONSERVATORY or Music, TO BE fine, must have fine teachers. Heidel- berg need not belittle her staff of music professors. Prof. Gibson has been loved and admired not only for his ability to play and teach piano, but also for his grand personality. Prof. Behrens, teacher of string and wind instru- ments, has been with us for many years, and has proved his capability. Prof. Bray has studied his piano and organ work under the direction of teachers not only in the United States but abroad. Our vocal teacher, Prof. Ebersole, is loved by all. He has pro- duced voices where it seemed as if there could be none.

Rugged handled most of the passing duties and when a fifty yard pass was called for he hurled it.

Put on the steam John. Krohe though only a sophomore played a lot of football. He played the safety position on defense. On offense he skirted the ends and snagged passes.

The outcome can be guessed easily. The princes were unable to cope with such power at this stage of the season. Yes, they ended up behind the eight ball, just nosed out, 49-0. OCT. 5 ..... SMARTING FRoM LAST week's drubbing, eleven tri-color scrappers staged a comeback and surprised Kent State by administer- ing a 21-6 beating. In the game Joe Wade tallied his first college touch- down as did the sophomores Krohe and Hatter. Baku's educated toe kicked three successful extra points. The play of both of our ends, Seele and Hostler, was outstanding. How- ever, Hostler playing the greatest game of his career was hurt, and Heidelberg also suffered another cas- ualty when Riddle broke his nose. OCT. 12 ...... DADs' DAY ...... THE Princes out to perform before their dads were battled to a scoreless tie by a much heavier Ashland combine. Martin and Hoerneman replaced the injured Hostler and Riddle, and both turned in fine performances. just before the half ended Krohe broke away for a long run but was stopped before he tramped on the pay dirt. Ashland then proceeded to stave off the Princes' lone scoring threat. HUNDRED SIX OCT. 18. . .THE PRINCES JOURNEYED down to New Concord and engaged Muskingum in one of their tradi- tionally torrid battles. Muskingum was celebrating Dads' Day as well as High School Day. The stage was set for a sweet revenge for that 3-0 set- back that the Muskies gave us at our Homecoming last year. Showing steady improvement each week the Princes reached a new peak as they battled the Muskies back on their heels. Late in the first half with the ball deep in Heidelberg's territory the ball is snapped to Bobby Nye in the tail back position. He races around his own right end, cuts back to the left and sprints seventy-five yards down the sidelines for a touchdown. The Princes then settled down to play the most bruising defense of the year. Lindsay and Baku, backing up the line, repeatedly picked up Muskie ball carriers and bowled them over backwards. The entire line played a fast charging game and picked off many of a potential touchdown in its early stage. Another feature of the game was that pass which Spanky Riddle intercepted. OCT. 26...BEFORE A LARGE HONIE- coming crowd the Student Princes took on a highly touted Ohio Northern team. Ohio Northern had been unde- feated during the season of 1934 and had yet to lose an encounter this year. As the teams warmed up an interesting contrast was drawn be- tween the size of the two teams. The Princes looked like eleven Davids about to take on eleven Goliaths without the benefit of sling shots. As game time approached eleven greatly outweighed tri-color gridders ran out on the field mumbling, The bigger they are the harder they fall . Heidelberg got in hot water immedi- ately and after staving off the first onslaughts finally yielded a touch- down. After staking the Polar Bears to six points, the Homecoming crowd was privileged to see eleven of the scrappingest gridders ever to repre- sent their Alma Mater fight back and tie up the score as Hatter dove over that last chalk line. The extra point, which would have meant victory, was missed but if there ever was a moral victory this was one. The features of the game were the sterling defensive play of Lindsay and that last des- perate run of Bobby Nye. Nov. 2. . .THE PR1NcEs MET CAPITAL and for the hrst time this season were conceded an even chance for victory. Heidelbergers were not disappointed either for Seele from a deep punt formation heaved a pass to Krohe, who scampered over for a touchdown. Joe Vlfade added another score when he broke through a hole off his own left guard and raced thirty yards to score. A safety raised the score to 15-0. The chapel bell pealed out another victory for the surprising Princes. Nov. 9. . .THE PR1NcEs JOURNEYED to Akron to do battle with a powerful Akron outfit. Heidelberg again got off to a poor start due partly to some heartbreaking penalties. The Zippers capitalized on the breaks and scored a touchdown on a spread play which caught the Princes off guard. They also converted the extra point. In the third quarter VVelter tossed a pass to Seele, and Bob raced down the side- lines to score. The point after the touchdown was missed, and Heidel- berg lost a heartbreaker 7-6. Nov. 16, . .WITTENBERG PLAYED HOST to Heidelberg down at Springfield. The first part of the game was played on even terms. Then Heidelberg threw a pass out in the flat zone, failed to cover up, and a wide-awake Vllittenberg back intercepted the heave and raced sixty yards for the lone score of the game. The Princes battled on, outplaying their heavier opponents, but never got into the green pastures. It was in this game that Vlfalter Trogler, scrappy Heidel- berg guard, broke his leg. Nov. 23, . .IT was A BITTERLY coLD day that the Heidelberg giant killers took on a strong Toledo team. Cap- ital had defeated Toledo 6-0 early in the season and Heidelberg had easily taken Capital to camp, but Toledo was a greatly improved ball club and ruled a heavy favorite in pre-game dope, No, the game does not have a happy ending, the forecasts were right and the Princes were snowed under, although they fought valiantly until the end. just as in the Ohio VVesleyan game the Princes were out- classed and were humbled to the tune of 34-O. It was a successful season, although it both started and ended with Sat- urday afternoon nightmares. However sandwiched between these two night- mares was some truly great football. Hail! the scrappiest team ever to wear the Heidelberg colors.

These neophytes constantly afforded the varsity stiff competition. When they were given their chance to show their stuff in actual combat, this versatile frosh team turned-on the steam and rode rough shod over the sophomores, rolling up a 19-6 score. Again Coach C. B. Schuchardt turned out a strong frosh basketball combine. This year as last year his team went through the regular season of play Without suffering a defeat, Schuchie's Shooting Stars constantly afforded the varsity excellent scrimmage and in a regular pre-season game with the varsity, staged for the benefit of the Hi-Y convention, the varsity barely eked out a win. To make matters worse the frosh maintain that the last quarter was unduly long, and some of the Varsity members refuse to argue the point. VV ith this Galaxy of stars coming up prospects for a successful basketball season next year look good. WHEN COACH TED TURNEY ISSUED His FIRST CALL FOR varsity basketball he was greeted by a large squad of optimistic cagers. But this optimism gradually grew into pessimism in the face of constant defeat. Occasionally the Princes showed flashes of reall basketball form such as their decision over Ohio Northern at Ada, but the fiashes were few and far between. Many of these defeats were far from disgraceful as they were suffered at the hands of such basketball powers as Marietta, Vlfittenberg, Toledo, Mus- kingum, and Mount Union. The season was a failure, but the Princes look to next year. Coach C. B. Schuchardt BASKETBALL BOB SEELE. . .Bob was a good shot and an excel- lent floor man. For three years he not only held a regular position but was a main cog in the team. RALPH HATTER. . . Rugged can make the ball do tricks. He is a tall boy who can really get off his feet and who possesses great possibilities. He never really got going this year, but he has two big years ahead of him. ANDY BAKU. .'.Andy is a real asset under the basket both offensively and defensively. He uses his size to excellent advantage. A great fighter with a fine team spirit. Andy has another year. BUD OTTE. . .Bud is a tall, well-built eager, who saw quite a bit of action in every position. He is a good shot and he loves the game. He is a sophomore. i BOB NYE. . . Butch did in basketball what he did in football. He certainly made those big fellows look silly. Nye possesses a great team spirit, which accounts for his team-mates electing him captain. We'1l miss him. LETTERMEN FRED FREECE. . . Chick is a great ball handler, feeder, and defensive player. In this sport, as in all others, he possesses the potentialities. He has another year. RAY BOWMAN. . . Tippy is a real deadeye. If given a chance he burns those meshes. Feed the ball to Tip , and let him pour it through is the plan followed when he gets in the game. PAUL HOERNENIAN. . ,Paul is a smooth, polished ball player, who stepped right into college com- petition and made a name for himself in his sophomore year. Paul is a ball player's ball player. SYL HARMON. . .Syl uses those 190 pounds of his to good advantage on a basketball court. He was an excellent team man, who gave his best whenever called on. Syl is a sophomore. HEINIE SCHMIDT. . .Heinie is a good shot and a good ball handler but a little weak on defense. He also has another year. A good man from the foul line. SPRING SPORTS THESE FOUR SOPHOMORES, KROHE, AIKEN, ZECH- iel, and Heaver, plus Holtom have done much towards giving Heidelberg its strongest track team in years. Vornholt tallied points in the Big Six Meet when he was only a sophomore. Last year in the same meet he won the javelin throw and the discus. This year Vornholt has been a one-man track team for the Princes, garnering points in the javelin, discus, shot put, high jump, broad jump, and pole vault. It is Ham's misfortune that the Big Six Meet does not crown a decathalon champion for our Herman is also a speedy runner. Heidelberg looks to Herman to do big things down at Mus- kingum where the Big Six Meet is held this year. Freece is also a Big Six veteran! having also competed there last year as a sophomore. Fred's main fort is pole Vaulting. His college records have never crushed those he established in high school, but he is a constant point getter for the Princes. Besides vaulting he is a good broad jumper and just recently has been tutoring under Vornholt in the javelin and discus throws. INTRAMURAL SPURTS VVITH THE THREE UPPERcLAss SOCIETIES BATTLING to gain the first leg on the intramural cup, offered by Ralph Comstock of the Tiffin jewelry Company, Heidelberg experienced its most closely contested intramural program in years. The Heids got off to a flying start, when their cross-country team led by Holtom easily copped the event. The Aps then took the speedball title. The Heids then stamped them- selves as a definite threat by winning ping pong. Then the Exes, who gained permanent possession of the cup offered last year, finally came into their own and showed their superiority in basketball and volleyball. This leaves baseball, tennis, and track still to be played, and at present it looks like anybody's cup with the Exes and Heids slightly favored over the Aps. That captivating parlor game, which has won its place in the heart of Americans, also made its inroad into collegiate competition, when Heidelberg played host to a strong Toledo U. team. Toledo whose team boasted of men ranking high in that city's tournament play easily defeated the Princes. The contest was an interesting innovation, and we played before a large audience of ping pong enthusiasts. The match pro- moted by Bob Houk, Kilikilik sports columnist, definitely initiated a ping pong club at Heidelberg. .7 , an .

PSYCHOLOGY OF PERSONALITY F First Rockefeller Foundation President Gives Ad- dress at Heidelberg College Commencement -1- G Comparing the mind to a motionl picture where varied images ap- pear as on a screen, Dr. George E. Vincent, first president of the Rockefeller Foundation, presented a searching study into the psychology of personality when he delivered the commencement address at Heidelberg this morning. The processes of the mind may be likened to an inner screen up- on which films are passing, Dr. Vincent said. Many of the images come and go without control, plan. or purposeg others are held or ban- lished or recalled by the individual whose feelings vary with the mean- 'ing which the pictures have for him. For some he has a warm feeling of approval. There are scenes of cleverness and success in which the individual recognizes himself as the leading actor, with a feeling that is intimate, vivid, gratifying. There ,are also other images, memories of l . . . ione's own stupidity, blundermg meanness, or worse. Such images are usually hurried off the screen.
