THE wealth oF folk tales Found in many countries has a counterpart in the legends that have evolved concerning Clark Hall. There are Fairy tales — only sophisticated upper classmen live there. There are Fantasies — Clark Hall girls are out every night. There are beast tales — anyone sent home is always From Clark Hall.

Since that time it ' has had complete control of the collection and budgeting of the students ' activity fees and supervision over the management of the co-operative bookroom. The lecture committee, a part of the association, has selected for school assemblies such speakers as Dr. Stephen S. Wise, Stuart Chase, Will Durant, Emil Lengyel, Sherwood Eddy, Lothrop Stoddard, and Lew Sarrett, and such entertainment by the Vienna Boys Choir, the Boston Sinfonietta, the Kryl Band and DeWolf Hopper. Financial support for varsity, intra-mural, and women ' s athletics and awards in these fields is handled by the co-operative association. College publications, the yearbook, newspaper, and handbook, receive complete or partial financial backing. Orchestras are hired and records are bought by thii body for the regular school dances. Each year a number of students are sent to various meetings and conferences throughout the country. The membership of this organization consists of the fifteen members of the Student Council and the following faculty members: the Dean of Women, Dean of Men, Dean of Instruction, Chairman of the Lecture Committee, Head of the Athletic Department, a member of the Faculty Club, and an appointee by the President of the College. In October, 1934, the association elected Mr. Paul Woodring treasurer of the organization and manager of the bookroom. 28 GOVERNMENT The Student Council President SAM GREEN Vice President HAROLD FULTON Secretary DOROTHY Mc ADAM THE STUDENT COUNCIL THREE years ago the Student Council had its origin through the efforts of Dr. Foster ' who presented to the student body of the college a plan for student participation in government at Indiana. The constitution was prepared by several members of the faculty who were interested in this step in advancement. The purpose of the organization is to promote in every way possible the best interests of the college; to regulate all matters of student conduct which do not fall under the jurisdiction of the administration and the faculty; and, in general, to serve as a means by which the needs of the students may be presented to the council. During the past year the council has attempted to create more recreation facilities for the benefit of students at Indiana. Each Friday night it has sponsored a social period in Recreation Hall and has furnished entertainment for those couples desiring to attend. In fostering friendly relations with other colleges throughout the country, the Student Council takes part in the activities of the Pennsylvania Association of College Students and the Eastern States Association of Professional Schools for Teachers. Each year the council selects delegates from the student body to attend the regular meetings of these organizations. The constitution requires that the council be made up of four representatives of the Senior Class, four from the Junior Class, three from the Sophomore Class, two from the Freshman Class, the President of the Womens Resident Student League, and the President of the Mens Student League. ■ ■ 1935 OAK PUBLICATIONS THE 1935 OAK JULIAN SHINOL Editor-in-Chief FREDERICK TOMB Business Manager 1935 OAK WE have had two goals in editing this OAK. Since the average person notices only two things about any yearbook — its beauty in general and his own pictures in particular — our aims were to make the OAK as beautiFui and artistic an annual as our finances would permit, and to picture every student at least once, either in a group or individually. LoFty aims! . . . but if we have achieved them we consider our venture successful. Using the best of modern magazines as our models we have tried to build up an annual which may for a short time be the epitome of Indiana yearbooks. We have attempted something new in an art theme, a gutterbled border design and the use of original woodcuts on division pages. With dull-coated paper, soot-black ink and red as the second color we have tried to introduce a distinctly modern note. Even our type has been selected only after a considerat ion of its beauty and distinctiveness. Finally, we have tried to relieve the monotony of past Indiana yearbooks by entirely new arrange- ments of halftones, copy, and page and typographical layouts. In conclusion we wish to thank Bernice Orndorff and Clinton File for advice in editorial and financial problems,- Gregory Ivy and Virginia Crawshaw for assistance in artistic matters; The Student Co-operative Association for partially financing this volume; Carl Douglass, of the Douglass Studio, for photography and the use of equipment; Louis Wise, of the Jahn and Oilier Engraving Company, for his valued assistance; H. B. Weaver, of the Pittsburgh Printing Company, for technical printing advice; Earl Evans, of the Molloy Cover Company; those editors pictured on the opposite page who had a most vital part in the ultimate character of the book, and finally those contributors who are listed.

The cost of publication is paid by the Student Co-operative Association from the activity fee. This year for the first time the editor-in-chief was paid a salary of one hundred dollars from the allotment. The paper prints the news of extra-curriculum activities and general campus happenings through an organized system of news departments and a staff of reporters and news writers. Features and standing columns include the editorials, the humorous column en- titled Penn Pricks, a Campus column of student opinion, a calendar captioned Mark the Date, the weekly Sports Review by the sports editor, Exchange Ex- cerpts, and At Present, a column of timely comment by the managing editor. Last year the Penn was increased to full tabloid size. This year the editors have further increased the news coverage through the adoption of smaller type throughout and by incorporating into headlines a wider selection of modern type faces. The staff has continued to embody in the paper more principles of sound journalism in an attempt to contribute to what is hoped will be a yearly increase in the importance of journalism at Indiana. Publication of the Penn is an allied-curriculum activity which receives no class credit but which has great practical value in supplementing class work. The students who hold the various staff positions do the journalistic work entirely on their own time and by rea- son of their own individual interest and ability. Under the editorial plan of the paper, those students who succeed as staff members are fitted to become advisers of publications where they will teach. The purposes of the paper are as follows: to focus student attention on worthy achieve- ments,- to encourage progressive thought,- to increase interest in all activities of the college,- to develop in students habits of observation, thought, and expression,- to create and develop loyalty, school spirit, and school patriotism,- to foster leadership, initiative, co-operation and business responsibility,- to inform students, patrons and friends what the school stands for and what it accomplishes,- to unify and promote the general welfare of the college; and to give experience in practical journalism. ■ I PUBLICATIONS THE PENN STAFF Editor-in-Chief EDWARD BRACKEN Managing Editor CHESTER SHEAFFER News Editor MARION BUCHAN ., c ,.

The Newman Club has steadily increased In numbers since its Initial organization, and during the past year it attained the largest membership since its establishment. One of the earliest social activities this year was the annual fall outing at the College Lodge In September. 34 RELIGIOUS The Newman Club The Reverend James A. Brady, pastor oF St. Bernard ' s Church, spiritual leader of the club and principal speaker, gave an interesting and amusing account of his travels in Europe. Each year the club sponsors a dinner party which is generally considered to be the outstanding social event of the year ' s program. This year ' s party, which took place in the college dining room and Recreation Hall, was held in November. Guests at this affair were Miss McLean, Miss Grassmuck, Mrs. Arntz, and Miss Knowles. In January the club was invited to conduct a Vesper Service. Robert Blanc read the Scriptures, and Cecilia Kirk delivered the evening address, basing her discussion on the Holy Spirit. At one of the meetings Miss McLean gave the club an account of the historic churches on the Island of Malta and in Constantinople, which she visited last year while on a cruise through the Mediterranean and Black Seas. One of the most gratifying events of the year was a visit from Newman Club delegates representing the three Pittsburgh colleges: Duquesne, Pitt, and Carnegie Tech. 1935 OAK COUNCIL Robert Blanc, Madeline Fritsche, Sarah McMonegal, Amelia Rossi, Marie Runzo, Helen Sybert RELIGIOUS 1 ' 1 Hill Hess Bracken Davis Bashforth Immel Scott Emmert THE YOUNG MENS CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION THE Y oF Indiana State Teachers College, 1935 OAK members of the State and National Councils of the Y.M.C.A., has the same principles and purposes as the larger organizations: to lead students to faith in God through Jesus Christ; to lead them in membership and service in the Christian Church; to promote their growth in Christian faith and character, especially through the study of the Bible and prayer; to influence them in devoting themselves by united effort with all Christians to make the will of Christ effective in human society; and to extend the Kingdom of God throughout the world. This year the program placed emphasis on the religious and social aspects of college life. In its four Vesper services, the organization carried out its purposes effectively by presenting a review of Bruce Barton ' s book, The Man Nobody Knows. In a series of lectures given by faculty members and dealing with social problems of interest to the men, the religious program was further carried out. Informal groups forming after each lecture permitted everyone to express his opinions and to ask or answer ques- tions. In addition to these were meetings at which representatives of the national Y.M. C.A. organization gave addresses on religious, social, economic, and educational sub- jects. As a result of many requests, a training course preparing advisers of Hi-Y groups was started this year. Material was supplied by the state council, and men experienced in this type of work acted as leaders. Although not of a strictly religious nature, it was in keeping with the religious-social program of the Y and will undoubtedly prove to be very valuable for future use. President EDGAR HILL Vice President EDWARD BRACKEN Treasurer LUTHER SCOTT Secretary WILLIAM BASHFORTH Program Committee GLENN HESS Social Committee VAUGHN IMMEL Publicity Committee JOHN DAVIS Faculty Sponsor MR. EMMERT Chairman of the Advisory Council MR. WHITMYRE RELIGIOUS The social program of the Y began before the school year started. A letter, pre- pared and sent to students who had registered and to those who signified intentions of entering school in the fall, served to acquaint the prospective student with activities which he might find informed him of college life in general at Indiana. To permit upper classmen to renew old acquaintances and to acquaint new students with men of the faculty, a meeting was held during the first week of school. These purposes were realized through the medium of refreshments, smokes and jokes. After this meeting the men got together to discuss topics of interest, chiefly summer vacations. Next came the Triangle Dance, one of the outstanding social events sponsored by the V.M.C.A. Held after the Lock Haven game, the dance attracted a crowd of nearly a hundred couples celebrating the victory of the afternoon. Refreshments adding to the spirit of gayely which prevailed made the celebration much more enjoyable. The Steak Fry, an established annual event, was held appropriately before Thanksgiving. Laughter, said to aid digestion, was ade- quately provided for by an amateur minstrel production. Group singing with the promi- nate bass of Dr. Foster and the usual run of stories were enjoyed before the party broke up. Again, chiefly through numerous requests and the kind permission of the faculty members, the Faculty Fireside, inaugurated last year, was included on this year s program. March sixth, the date of this event, saw the ' men go to the homes of the faculty members they chose to visit. In most cases, the faculty member decided on how many men he could accommodate, and the principle of first come, first served, was the basis for selecting men from the signing-up list. Custom demands that the host provide conversation, entertainment, and refreshments for the guests. In the final analysis, it has served its purpose by creating a closer relationship between faculty and students. To prevent an organization from becoming static, there must be brought in outside influences to effect change. Seminars, held in connection with the new Student Christian Movement with the purpose of uniting the Y.M.C.A. and the Y.W.C.A. into one large national group, were held at Slippery Rock on December 6, 1934, at the University of Pittsburgh, January 11-13, 1 935, and at Allegheny College, February 20, 1935. Local delegates in attendance at these meetings brought in new ideas and supplied thoughts on how to better the local organization. Stressing a motive of world- mindedness in Christianity, they were also serving another purpose in presenting situations at they are found in the w aitcd v i_iiTkiVDC i. . I 1.1 I .

RELIGIOUS f kfE, the members oF the Young Women ' s Christian Association, unite in the ▼▼ desire to realize full and creative life through a growing knowledge of God. This is the purpose of the Young Women ' s Christian Association, organized at Indiana since 1897. The regular program meetings are held on Wednesday evening. The programs vary, endeavoring to satisfy all types of girls. During the past year the Y.W.C.A. has included as part of its program the opportunity to develop hobbies. One of the outstanding meetings of the year is the Candlelight Service held in the fall at the close of the member- ship campaign. This is a service for the induction of new members. The Thanksgiving and pre-Easter morning services are also outstanding meetings of the year. In the White Gift Service of the Christmas Season each girl who takes part experiences the spirit of giving — as she places her white gift under the lighted Christmas tree in Recreation Hall. The holiday season has been made a happy time for many needy families as a result of this unusual service The Morning Watch Service held in the Y room each Monday morning is another of the worthwhile activities sponsored by the Organization. Through these services the girls develop a more sincere relationship with God and their fellow men. As part of its religious activities each year the Y.W.C.A. sponsors four Vesper Services. The Burning Altar, by Ethel Gesner Rockwell, has become a traditional Thanksgiving Vesper Service of the college. This is a pageant in pantomime representing the call of Life from the Earliest Times to the time of the World Today, with a reaching forward to the call of the World To Be. The social aim of the organization is expressed by its teas, seasonal parties, and outings. The Y teas, held bi-weekly with specially invited faculty members as guests, aid in fostering a fine social feeling among the women of the college as both members and non-members are made welcome. These leas are usually held in the Y.W.C.A. room,- this year, however, a special tea was held in Recreation Hall to which all girls and faculty were invited to meet Dean Amos of the University of Pittsburgh. Dean Amos came to the organization as the contribution of the Pan-Hellenic Association to the Y.W.C.A. program. The Y.W.C.A. Loan Fund developed last year from the Y.W.C.A. scholarship. This fund that had in the past assisted one girl each year with her school expenses will this year enable two worthy Y.W.C.A. members to remain in school. Although the fund is still small it promises to be a growing one as the organization adds fifty dollars to it each year. With increase of the fund it is hoped that more and more promising Y.W.C.A. members may profit by its existence. Other outstanding features of the Y work are the Big Sister Movement, the work done during the first week for Freshmen, the annual dinner and the social service work for the children of the orphan ' s home. In the spring of the year, after the election of new officers, old and new cabinet members with faculty sponsors had a week-end retreat. It is in the quiet of this retreat, that the program of the past year is evaluated and the program for the coming year is tentatively planned. During the summer, girls from Indiana attend the regional summer conference where many helpful suggestions for the organization are received as well as much personal benefit for girls who are privileged to attend.

These halls were originally the homes of two literary societies that were founded and chartered in 1875. The names chosen were Erodelphian, meaning Source of Wisdom and Huyghenian, named for the German scientist, Huygens, exemplifying a Search for Truth. The rooms were elaborately furnished, with elegant window draperies and car- pets, sets of formal and rather impressive platform furniture, pianos, and beautiful pictures which were given by the alumni of the societies. A new technique in state taxation of corporations in Pennsylvania made it necessary to annul the charters of these two societies. New ideals and interests in literary ventures and entertainment urged an evolution in the type of programs presented in the meetings. The spirit of the present society, the oldest and largest all-student organization on the campus, was built through the discovery that the student boys would attend a one-act play or program involving a contact and experience with the Little Theatre Movement of America. This new line of interest is being developed by teachers who lend their intelligent appreciation to the great movement that is purging the commercial theatre. I DRAMA Leonard Literary Society Staff Aides Vernet Hinsey Davidson Blackstone Immel Altenburg The spirit of co-operation among the students and Faculty members has been a great Factor in obtaining proFessional talent that brings to us programs Filled with cultural value. Among the famous people who have been presented in recent years are: AlFred Noyes, Ruth Draper, Charles Rann Kennedy, Edith Wynn Matthison, Sydney Thompson, E. H. Sothern, Tony Sarg and his Marionettes, Cornelia Otis Skinner, Admiral Richard E. Byrd, Carola Goya, George Russell, the Abbey Players oF Dublin, Upton Close, Ruth St. Denis, Dorothy Sands, and William Beebe. The proFessional talent which has been presented this year includes Ted Shawn and his ensemble oF men dancers, Viola Mitchell, one oF America ' s most promising young violinists, and Carl Sandburg, poet laureate oF American industry. In addition to this presentation oF the world ' s best talent the Leonard Literary Society has a further two-fold purpose. Through a correlative plan with the English Activities classes approximately three hundred students have appeared during the year in the Leonard Literary Society amateur programs, which are presented in the College Auditorium every Monday evening at 7:15. All of these appearances represent a democratic and pedagogic cast-selection. This means that the students themselves have directly determined who shall participate in the program activity. The other phase of the two-fold purpose is to show how a few students may be carefully selected by a director and coached into an artistic finis of performance which closely approaches professional acting. Death Takes a Holiday, Journey ' s End, and Sun-Up, are the three plays thus far presented by the society in a successful attempt to fulfill the second phase of the two-fold purpose of the organization.

The type of program was entirely new to an Indiana audience. The space values and syn- chronization of movement against the black velvet curtain gave utmost satis- faction to those present. Following the program, Shawn and his group of men were entertained at a buffet supper party. Doctor and Mrs. Foster, Mr. Sanders, Miss Bowles, and the official staff of the organization were included. Ted Shawn Ensemble N the evening of December 3, Viola Mitchell, violinist, was pre- sented by the Leonard Literary Society in the Ritz Theatre at 8:1 5 o ' clock. Miss Mitchell appeared here two days preceding her American debut which was formally made with the Boston Symphony Orchestra in Boston, Massachusetts. This artist is a Pittsburgh girl and because of many local contacts and interests brought special joy to many in the large audience. Viola Mitchell ARL SANDBURG, the American poet, appeared in the College ■Gymnasium Monday, February 18, under the auspices of the Leonard Literary Society. Mr. Sandburg gave readings of his own poetry and intimate renditions of selections from his American Song Bag. Off stage Mr. Sandburg was genially pleasant and thoroughly enjoyed by the many students with whom he came in contact. During his stay on the Campus he honored the American College Quill Club by becoming one of its members. 1935 OAK DRAMA The Cast of Sun-Up ■ I 1935 OAK The Third Annual Play of the Leonard Literary Society SUN-UP By Lula Vollmcr Presented on Saturday and Monday, March 16 and 18, 1935, in the Collese Auditorium CHARACTERS Widow Cagle EVANGL SUTTON PARK Pap Todd, an old man JAMES KOHUT Emmy, Todd ' s daughter MARGARET KURTZ Bud, Todd ' s son ROBERT BLANC SheriFf Weeks, deputy sheriff DON GLOSSNER Rufe Cagle, Widow Cagle ' s son ROBERT GESEV Preacher ROBERT BENNETT The Stranger, a young man from civilization DON McGREW Bob JAMES BLOSE MUSIC The College Symphony Orchestra All music Is what awakes from you when you are reminded by the instruments — Walt Whitman V N eloquent baton,, obeyed from the delicacy of a • pianissimo through the sweep of a powerful crescendo, has carried this symphonic group to musical heights. Fineness of ensemble playing, sensitiveness of intonation and phrasing, finess of technique have resulted in Fine interpretations. The earnest student of orchestra may acquire an extensive repertory of orchestra literature, a definite feeling for group responsiveness, and an appreciation and knowledge of orches- tral instruments. The players are be led from the tone pre- cision of Beethoven and Haydn through the melodic loveliness of Schubert to the colorful blend of Debussy. An unusual opportunity was extended the orchestra this year in providing the musical background for the swing-out In Quest of the Goddess Athena by Edna Lee Sprowls. In this capacity the student learned to apply his orchestral playing to pageantry and dance, in addition the music lovers of the community were given first hand opportunity to hear excellent orchestral programs during the year. When the orchestra was heard in concert this spring, the program consisted of Haydn ' s Second Symphony from the classic period, Debussy ' s Petite Suite from the impression- istic, and Weber ' s Der Freischutz Overture from the Romantic school.

H. Hadow IN the leFt wing oF John Sutton Hal! is the Music Department. ' To the casual listener it means an indistinct vociferation of in- struments and voices; the mingling of violins, trombones, and many pianos. To the serious music student it is a place to work, to practice, to realize ambitions, to understand and love music. This club is the fellowship of the Mui ic Department. JUHN Ntrr People cannot work, sing and play well together for long bponsor without a certain sodality. Out of this friendly comradeship has developed two department social gatherings each year. Autumn finds the music makers romping on school-lodge hill in their fall fun-fest: con- geniality, good food, sport, complete jocosity. Spring is the time for the annual music dinner. This gracious affair is made possible through the kindness of Dr. Foster. The de- partment has the pleasure of having the State Director of Music, Mr. M. Claude Rosen- berry and Mrs. Rosenberry with them on this occasion. For each senior class this marks the last social gathering of the year. It is the beginning of the end, and along with good food and congeniality one senses the parting of the ways,- reminiscence perhaps, thoughts of work and practice, ambitions realized, friend- ships. It comes to every senior, unnoticed in the midst of hilarity and fun, lost to the un- derclassmen, but a tribute to the Finer things of life. I THE BAND MUSIC RiUs of music, note on note, Spillins the air with mellow gold. — Madison Cawein. THIS organization really serves a dual purpose. First it ' provides the necessary opportunity to the student of instru- ments for ensemble playing and acquaintancesfiip witfi a varied type of band literature. Tfie band is best known, however, in its second capacity, that of performing for various school functions. The exhilara- tion of a football day is intensified by the band playing The Spirit of Indiana or a stirring march. The assembly-goer is exposed to practical lessons in music appreciation through first hand auditory observation of the band in concert formation. No longer need anyone plead EDWARD SULLIVAN ignorance of the dulcet-toned oboe, the mellowness of a Director French Horn with its intricate twinings of brass, the deep- throated tuba sounding forth a pompous bass. From a high seat he may watch the compact Napoleanic form of our be- loved Sully, officially known as Mr. E. F. Sullivan, as he leads them all through stirring march or stately overture.

The purity of tone and delicate blend of treble voices concerted in praise and adoration create a desirable reverence. They intensify the emotional and spiritual message of the speakers. As through a veil one hears the subdued tones of the traditional choral benediction as the choir recedes from the chapel, and one is reminded of Carlysle ' s thought music is the voice of Angels. Impressive is the annual repetition of the religious panto- mime, The Burning Altar, by Edith G. Rockwell, which the y.W.C.A. sponsors and for which the choir helps to provide the musical background. The quiescence of the candle-lit Christmas carol service serves to remind the hearer of the significance of this holy season. While this vested choir consists primarily of first and second year women of the music department, a limited number of women from other departments are admitted each year subject to satisfactory tryouts with the director. AAGOT BORGE Director 48 THE A CAPELLA CHOIR MUSIC What joy to capture song From sound and send It throbbins through the hearts of men. — Emily Selinger O intensify this joy through a high type of a capella sing- ' ing has been the pleasure of the members of this choir. Trained already in the technique of voice, the individual is enveloped in a group consciousness and learns subordination to the dominant purpose, a principle underlying this and other arts. Not only are the technical aspects of tone, rhythm, enunciation, and phrasing carefully dealt with, but emotional training so vital to real interpretation is particularly stressed. Wide is the experience of the choir in choral literature. It embraces composers of the early polyphonic school, the clasic period, and modern groups of English, French. German, Russian and American composers. The choir moves with sure- ness a.id sensitivity from simple folk song, negro spiritual, frolicsome madrigal, to the intensity of a Bach double chorus under the masterful leadership of its director. This organization has had the unusual privilege of representing the college by a num- ber of concerts throughout the service area.

Of such music lovers the Lyric Choir con- sists, affording an excellent example of the prevalent educa- tional idea: participation in ensemble music groups is a desir- able leisure time occupation. In the late afternoon girls from every department gather to enjoy this avocation under the capable leadership of Miss Held. I love to listen to music, and in listening I ' ve come to think it a necessary part of life. For a well-rounded life one must have music and furthermore, music offers the best way of using time. As leisure time increases through shortening work hours, the use of music becomes more and more necessary. There are no drawbacks to music. You can ' t have too much of it. There is no residual bad effect like over-indulgence in other things. — GEORGE EASTMAN 50 MUSIC The Mens Glee Club Since sinsing is so good a thing I wish all men would learn to sing. — William Byrde OOD fellowship, the joy oF singins together, and the satisfaction of well-blended men ' s voices have a campus- wide appeal and bring members from every department into this club. Co-operation and the will to sing have given this organization a definite place in extra-curriculum activities. Under the expert guidance of their director. Miss Borge, the men experience the best in men ' s voice music and are taught correct methods of voice production. The essential element of humor, however, is not lacking in this club as was displayed in a highly successful farce comedy given last year. The yearly program consists of appearances at various assemblies and athletic functions, off-campus appearances in community entertainments, and a short concert for the Leonard Literary Society. This year in order to stress the more purely choral type of music and to give opportunity for more varied experience, a choral concert in collaboration with the Lyric Choir was given on March fifth.

ALLEN FUJITA JAMES HESS ANNA MAE KLINE 1935 OAK The Travelers Club is a general organi- zation to which students and faculty members of any department of the col- lege may belong. It was organized in 1927 with the aid of Miss Grassmuck. Increasing interest and co-operation of the student body has made the club one of the largest on the campus. Each year the organization holds two parties, one in the fall and one in the spring. Travelers among the faculty and stu- dent body, as well as those from off- campus, help others journey vicariously at the monthly meetings. CLUBS Early in October Miss Lillian McLean, who visited the Mediterranean region during the past summer, shared her experiences with many of the students and Faculty members. Two speakers appeared in November. Doctor J. Russell Smith, Head of the Geography Department, School of Busi- ness, Columbia University, New York City, presented in masterly fashion, A Message from the Persians Relayed by the Swiss. His effective use of words realistically portrayed and interpreted life in Persia and Switzerland. Several specimens of Persian rugs that he had collected on his trip through Persia and displayed during the lecture lent color and also concreteness to his address. Later in November, Miss Isabel Collins, Head of our Home Economics Depart- ment, told in an interesting fashion of some of her experiences in and impres- sions of Russia and Germany. Doctor Orton Lowe, of the University of Miami, Coral Gables, Florida, and temporarily a member of our English faculty, addressed theclub on England. The party in Recreation Hall brought the club members together for a social affair. The second semester ' s program was begun by Mr. Andor Kovacs, a junior at the State Teachers College, California, Pennsylvania, who vividly and forcefully brought the life and landscape of Hungary to the club members. An abundance of materials that he had assembled during a trip there last summer interested the audience. The spring party was held in February. Dancing, ping pong and other activities gave pleasure to the participants. Two travelers from our own College spoke at the March meeting. George Getty, a junior told of his trip Across the United States in an Uncovered Wagon, and Herbert Gregg, a graduate, described his recent trip, Florida in Winter. Mrs. Katheryn Thomas Whittemore, Head of the Geography Department, State Teachers College, Buffalo, New York, helped the club to understand better some of the sections of Asia at the April meeting. Her contribution was such as only a travelled geographer can make. At the last meeting, in May, Reverend James Brady discussed his beloved Ireland. His intense enthusiasm for the Green Isle provoked keen desire for travel on the part of every club member.

' IPcg, ' ) ELIZABETH RUSSELL Secretary CATHERINE O ' DONNELL Treasurer EUGENE MENNI 1935 OAK MARY EDNA FLEGAL Financial Adviser The Art Club combines the social, educational, and aesthetic interests oF the entire art department. Since all art stu- dents and Faculty automatically become members oF the Art Club, activities oF one are so closely indentiFied with those oF the other that separation cannot be made. Varied phases oF art are carried out in the monthly meetings, the annual Fall outins, and the spring banquet. The Freshmen, as usual, Formed the main part oF the entertainment For the outing at the lodge. They made their First public appearance as art students by displaying their talents with such absurd expressions 54 CLUBS as The World ' s Fair done in clay. At a later meeting humor again predominated when Miss Knowles gave an exceedingly pungent and enlightening talk on the subject. At another meeting the club, being in a more serious attitude, invited the Junior Chamber oF Commerce and introduced them to a few of the pictures from The International. Several of the Art Students discussed the pictures and tried to explain the meaning of and reason for modern art, which was a diffi- cult task even though the commercially- minded guests seemed interested. The spring banquet or studio party, which ever it may be, culminated club activities in a colorful social affair and in the pre- sentation of the Jean R. McElhancy award. This year the club has taken advantage of seeing two exhibitions of modern painting at the Carnegie art galleries — the annual international exhibition, and a collection of the prize paintings from past exhibitions. Local exhibitions of the best works of the students are always on dis- play. They represent concentrated thought and feeling for aesthetic expres- sion whether it be in crafts, modelling, pottery, pure design, or painting. These are of value to other students on the campus as well as members of the art club. Each year a collection of Japanese prints is also shown. In April, the department sent an exhibition of work from the col- lege and the training school to the East- ern Arts Association Convention in Philadelphia. In December, art teachers from the fourteen teachers colleges in Pennsyl- vania met in Indiana for a two-day confer- ence. The purpose of this conference was to revise the art curriculum now given to students in the teachers colleges. In February, Dr. George H. Opdyke presented the underlying motives for hav- ing art in his lecture, The Relationship Between Art and Utility. From a lay- man ' s viewpoint he clearly explained the broad and much needed application of art to everything in life. Art is not only painting, and beauty is not only pictorial studies done in pastel shades. Art is arrangement, rhythm, and balance of line and mass, of dark and light, and of color. Artistic arrangement can function in everything from cosmetics to kitchen cupboards. Most things can be beautiful as well as useful. At the end of the year the Jean R. McElhaney award is presented to the junior or the senior who has three out- standing achievements in three different fields of art. Besides that, however, sev- eral students were given outside recogni- tion this year. Jessie Jean Hunter re- ceived second prize for a textile design at the College Art Association. Frances Thompson at the same exhibition re- ceived First honorable mention for a watercolor. At the annual Exhibition of Cumberland Valley Artists, Lillian Mumma was awarded First honorable men- tion for an oil painting. In this way as well as by many other less-advertised meth- oda, the art department is being rewarded for concrete successes gained through continued efforts to make art living and necessary in all things to all people. 1935 OAK ALMA GASSLANDER Social Adviser CLUBS The Home Economics Club THE HOME ECONOMICS CLUB President VERA KELLEY SARAH COX Vice President DOROTHY CURRAN OLIVE EKELBARGER Secretary CAROLYN WALBORN LOUISE SURRA Treasurer MARY MENGES MARY MENGES 1935 OAK ISABEL COLLINS Financial Adviser Exhibits at the N. E. A. show one type o( display; exhibits at country Fairs show quite another. By the very nature of things, then, the exhibit given by the Home Economics Department on April 1 2 had characteristics oF display that were individual and novel. I Visitors who still were clinging to the idea of home economics as cooking and sewing had this idea sufficiantiy ex- ploded within this short time. As T. N. T. to aid in this explosion were regular class projects, charts, pictures, and research problems. Diets of a variety of ailments and ages were shown; in these the practicality of cost and attractiveness of service were both considered. To add the human element, demon- strations of diverse types were carried on. These went from head to toe and back again: the blocking, remodeling, and trimming of hats were shown,- good and bad design in clothing was applied to types and personalities,- studies of the wearing qualities of shirts and hose were available; cosmetics were tested for arsenic or Jell-o. Although the Home Economics Club is one of the oldest extra-curriculun activities at Indiana, this year was the first that the group succumbed to the campus flea whose bite resulted in a picnic at the College Lodge. By this time the officers had baen installed by an impressive candlelight service, so with the organiza- tion functioning smoothly, frivolity was in order. Revolutionary changes were the vogue, so the setting of the Freshman- Sophomore dinner dance was changed to Rustic Lodge. Here v ith autumn outside, the green and gold of October were seen inside in the woodpine and chrysanthe- mum decorated rooms. Christmas parties were sometimes banal and ordinary; not so with the 1934 Home Economics one. Instead of outdistancing each other in present-day Fineries, the guests dressed in the fripperies and warmth of the much- lauded good old days (date unde- cided). Not only modern dresses but modern games were discarded, and it happened one night that the theory of Berkeley Square was experienced. Tra- ditional department activities, still carried on, were the May Day breakfast on May 1 and the Senior Merry-Go on May 1 7. Outside talent was enjoyed when the Matinee Choral Club, directed by Mrs. Robert Fischer with Miss Mable C. Fiscus as soloist presented The River of Starts. With the attention of the club focused on world relations for the second semester, two programs were outstanding. Miss Collins, Director of the Department, gave an evening ' s program concerning her extensive travels in Russia, Germany, and other parts of Europe; Miss McLean talked of her summer trip in the Medi- terranean.

A convention was held that month to select candidates for the various offices. The fight for offices lay between the Ten Commandments party and the Service parly. Election was held in December of 1924 and the Service party was selected to guide the work of the club in its first year. 58 CLUBS Since that time the club has become popular, active, and very successful. It has always adhered closely to its original aims and purposes. These are as follows: to promote interest in the organization oF commercial clubs in high schools and to train teachers in the organizing of such clubs; to discover and serve the needs of the Department of Business Education at this college; to co-operate with the busi- ness men of our community in bringing about better understandings,- to develop better reading habits and strengthen the personal qualities of the members through carefully arranged programs,- to en- courage social contacts with other schools and associations,- and to become con- versant with modern progressive business methods and systems. Because of the nature of the training available through this organization, it is strongly recommended that all students become active members. !t is the major club for ail commercial students, and no other school organization offers the same training. In the election of officers, a political yet co-operative spirit is shown in the conventions each year. In this election the Junior Chamber of Commerce is divided into two major political parties. Each party holds its convention and selects its candidates for the various offices. Election day marks the same procedure as in actual political life. A few weeks later the inauguration is held with its installation of new officers. The annual autumn and spring outings cause much excitement. The one in the fall is a greeting to the new freshmen,- that in the spring is a farewell to the seniors. At Christmas, those who are more fortunate share with those who have less; the club sponsors a party for the children from the Willard Home. The children are so appreciative that the event is continued each year. One of the most important affairs of the year is the Commercial Tea. It is important because many of the alumni of the organization return to spend the day. In addition to these events, the club has professional meetings each month. These meetings have taken a new form, as a result of the work of the officers and sponsor of the club. Each meeting was a debate; the members of the debating teams were made up of the members of the club. Through this change in the form of the meetings many worthwhile topics were discussed in an interesting manner. This year ' s Commercial Tea was held April thirteenth. A novel idea was worked out; everything carried the nautical idea to such a degree that it was truly a Steamer Tea.

True, we did have a meeting once. In the hectic days of last fall ' s political campaign we elected officers, among them a couple of notorious racqueleers. Fully half of us revived from inertia long enough to amble over to the gym and assume a blase pose for the camera man. But since then we have gone our way unmolested, for we have been exposed before to long-winded orators spreading the doctrine of professional attitude, and we avoid any stranger within our gates with a brief case and a serious look as we do our advisers after re- ports have gone in. Not to be outdone by the J.C.C. and the Democrats, we too have a platform, in which the most important plank is a tea dance at the country club, with soft lights, and impressionable stag line, and the sweet music of Jan Garber ' s orchestra. 60 THE ENGLISH ROUND TABLE CLUBS BERNICE ORNDORFF Sponsor HE English Round Table is proud oF three achievements ' this year: not only did we lure Dr. Orton Lowe, of Miami University in Florida, to become a temporary member of what Ht ik . had formerly been a domain ruled exclusively by petticoats,- KpJBM ' ' but we acquired the English house on Grant Street, where we may quote Byron or Tennyson without fear of an explosion in an adjoining science lab; and we put into effect a program of activities by which English majors are trained to sponsor school newspapers, dramatics, forensics and reading choirs. At our first professional meeting in December the faculty members gave reports, spiced with personal adventures, of the meeting of the National Council of Teachars of English, held in Washington, D. C, during Thanksgiving vacation. As guests of Alpha Phi Gamma, at our second meeting we learned how yearbooks are constructed. We danced the Virginia Reel so boisterously, to the accompaniment of three chords on the piano and a mouth organ, at our fall outing at the Lodge that the rafters shook. After revealing an astonishing capacity for baked beans and hot dogs, we clustered around a crackling log fire while Dr. Lowe, puffing his famous pipe, kept us chuckling over anecdotes about literary celebrities he has known. For our formal tea in May we furtively borrowed Emily Post from the library, unearthed our last year ' s organdies, and went to balance our cups precariously, nibble little cakes, and chatter politely, in as accomplished a manner as la st season ' s crop of debutantes. . 1935 OAK The English Round Table I CLUBS The Geography Majors Club THE GEOGRAPHY MAJORS CLUB 1935 OAK ERNA GRASSMUCK Sponsor GEOGRAPHY majors as well as instructors arc members of the Geography Majors Club which was organized in 1932 by the Department Head, Miss Erna Grassmuck.

Carolyn Anderson and George Greenberg reported on the meetings of the National Council of Geography Teachers and the Association of American Geographers. Paul Shumaker, William Mostoller and Franklin George also attended these meetings in Philadelphia. Carolyn Anderson represented the club at the Pennsylvania Council of Geography Teachers in Harrisburg. Later in the year Dr. Lloyd French, Superviser of Ele- mentary Grades, New Kensington, Pa., analyzed some aspects of geographic education and Mrs. Katherync Thomas Whittemore, of the State Teachers College, Buffalo, N. Y., discussed the geography of Buffalo. The club had a steak fry at the College Lodge in the fall; its annual dinner was held in the geography laboratories. Each time Dr. and Mrs. Foster were guests of the club. Officers for the first semester were: Franklin George, president; Florence liames, vice president; Cortlyn Antonson, secretary-treasurer; Justine Lazzaratto, Penn representative for the year. Second semester officers included Eleanor Weisel, president; James Torrance, vice president; Clark Hess, secretary-treasurer.

Recreational mathematics and other topics which might help the teacher in making mathematics more interesting to the pupil are presented. Following this professional program, there is a social period when different types of mathematical recreation are practiced. Early in the fall a tea was held to welcome new majors. Later in the year, the club held a party when the members practiced geometric angles on the dance floor. Toward the end of the year, the group had its professional dinner. This organization offers an excellent opportunity for all those interested in the teaching of mathematics to exchange ideas and to enjoy fellowship with others having this common Interest.

The monthly programs for this year were so arranged that each of the major subject groups, physics, chemistry, biology, and everyday science, was given its proportionate share of the meetings. Several outings were held. A few of the pro- grams were followed by a social hour. The major enterprise this year was the SCIENCE EDUCA- TION CONFERENCE held at the college on March 23. This conference was attended by school superintendents and principals, teachers of science in the grades and high schools, science majors of the college, and science majors alumni. The central theme was, Interpreting the State Program of Science Education. From the success of this meeting the club de- termined to hold a science conference annually.

Until this year, the girls have not had any opportunities to develop natural aptitudes along this line. Under the guidance of their drector. Miss Maiel Bowles, they advanced sufficiently to participate in plays sponsored by the Leonard Literary Society. This group was partially responsible for the success of the Alumni Day Program . Although this type of dancing did not appeal to the boys at First, Ted Shawn and his ensemble of men dancers aroused an amount of enthusiasm and interest that resulted in the organization of a second group. These participants first appeared at a lecture demon- stration given by their sponsor for the local College Club.

Our unit is one of 485 located in the United States and one of the 21 in Pennsylvania. There are 135 in foreign countries. Membership is based on interest in national and international affairs, combined with a willingness to give time to the discussion and reading of relevant material.

But American foresight has added the safety element — (he trained person who can help (he bather in distress. The Life Saving Service of the American Red Cross is a vital factor in water safety. The College Life Saving Club is a unit of this organization. This club, consisting of Senior Life Savers and Examiners of the American Red Cross encourages good and safe swimming. Believing that correct practice tends toward per- fection, the organization provides for its members opportunities for instruction and drill. Knowing that socialization and fellowship binds any group of workers, it has delightful monthly meet ' ngs at which time this co-educational group has interesting programs, in- formal swimming, and refreshments. Realizing the need for public education in this work, on April ninth this group gave a demonstration of life saving and recreational swimming in the college pool. Opportunity for practical application of their knowledge and skills is given these Life Savers through assistance in swimming classes and faculty swims. The annual outdoor social swim in the spring provides along with its fun an occasion for instruction in water front protection and use of water craft.

This year the programs included a study of humorous poetry suitable for children of the grades and of high school, the read- ing of favorite poems, the reading of poetry to be used in the study of American History, and a discussion of poems on the need of being versed in country things. Poetry Club had the good fortune to have Dr. Orton Lowe read selections from the modern poets who wrote before 1 91 3. Upon two other occasions Ruth Knowles read selections from a book of her own poetic prose, and Kyle Work read entertain- ingly from his book of original humorous verse. Ability to write has never been necessary for membership, although encouragement is given to those who write poetry and desire further training. A library of ninety carefully chosen volumes is at the disposal of the members who are from every curriculum and class in the college. ■ I I THE T. G. I. F. CLUB AM THE CLUB SUPREME CLUBS All seniors are my members,- I appeal to the weak, the careless, the indolent, the tired, the sick at heart; I care not for creeds; I am no respecter of race; I mix brown with white and yellow and black. I am receiver of groans and curses But i sooth the weary. Stained with hectograph they approach me; Chalk-dusted eyes glare perceptibly; Conference-strained ears drink in my words of cheer; Plan-gleaned brains seek diversion through my portals. Under-classmen are my pledges; Juniors feel strongly my influence; Sophomores almost strain enough to appreciate me; Freshmen, young, innocent, apron-string- breakers hear of me; Soon or late all wait for me, cling des- perately. I offer rest, week-end permits, much sleep, long walks, hamburger sand- wiches with relish, cigarette smoke. I surge with stag lines, tired feet, much used records. My members laugh and talk and are bored. Some stare and wonder and then stand on the other foot. My sessions last two days. I deal in group conferences. I am co ' educational. My members do funny, human things: They waste time, hold hands, look happy. I am the cause of low grades, tired eyes, failures, bad breaths. I deal with small things of life. Do you belong? — Christy QUIET HOUR I Between the dark and the daylight When the knights are beginning to lower (their shades to get dressed for tea) Comes a pause in the day ' s occupation That is known as the quiet hour. It is the time when, if ever, the immense degree of religious toleration of this institution of ours is most prominent; then it is that many kneel at the shrine of the great God Morpheus; during this hour incense rises to the great God Nicotine with the lesser God Cupid holding the match; then it is that those who worship at the shrines of Fallen Arches and Athlete ' s Foot turn their footsteps toward their respective Gods. At this hour the campus is deserted (by request) so that the trees may bow to the wind god unobserved and unmolested.

Dr. C. H. McClure, the distinguished author and educator, enroute home from a national convention of Phi Delta Kappa, conceived the idea of organization for undergraduate men in education which should do for the undergraduate a work similar to that done for graduate students by Phi Delta Kappa. Re- turned to the campus at Warrensburg, Missouri, he dis- cussed the idea with a group of students. Their enthusias- tic response eventuated in the formation of Alpha Chapter of Phi Sigma Pi. The combination of the ideals of Knowledge, Training, and Fellowship, as factors in the development of a professionally well-rounded individual, has appealed so strongly to men in schools of education that the growth of the organization thus founded has re- sulted in a roll of eighteen chapters extending from Arizona to eastern Pennsylvania.

Williams, National Secretary, and W. H. Bristow, Regional Director. The members oF Omega Chi, a local Fraternity, became the charter members oF Eta Chapter, Phi Sigma Pi, with Dr. Percival as the sponsor. Phi Sigma Pi holds a biennial meeting oF the Grand Chapter, consisting oF delegates From local chapters and the national oFFicers, during the meetings oF the Department oF Superintendence oF the National Edu- cation Association. By the time oF the national meeting in 1 931 Dr. Percival had become so distinguished For his enthusiasm in Fraternal work that he was elected to the national presidency. When Dr. Percival leFt Indiana, Mr. E. E. Manwiller, also oF Eta Chapter, succeeded him as National President and served until the 1 935 convention, at which time Mr. S. S. Shearer oF Omicron chapter, Shippensburg, Pennsylvania, was elected to suc- ceed him. Eta chapter was the First Fraternity at Indiana to provide a home For chapter member The Fourth Floor oF the local Y.M.C.A. was maintained as Fraternity headquarters until the Fall oF 1933 when the chapter moved to its present beautiFul home at 413 College Avenue. The national constitution oF Phi Sigma Pi provides that on or near the date oF the anniversary oF the Founding oF the Fraternity a Founders Day Banquet shall be held by each local chapter. At this time a distinguished alumnus oF the local college or an eminent educator shall be initiated as an honorary member oF the Fraternity. Eta chapter has had the pleasure oF initiating Dr. John A. H. Keith, Former president oF Indiana and Superintendent oF Public Instruction oF Pennsylvania,- Dr. Ben Graham, Superintendent oF the Schools oF the City oF Pittsburgh, and President oF the Pennsylvania State Educa- tion Association; Dr. Q. A. W. Rohrbach, Formerly ProFessor oF Education at the University oF Pittsburgh, and present President oF the State Teachers College at Kutz- town, Pennsylvania,- the Hon. John S. Fisher, Formerly Governor of Pennsylvania; and Mr. Charles J. Margiotti, now Attorney-General oF the Commonwealth. Other chapters have in the meantime conferred honorary membership upon similarly dis- tinguished men whose names add additional luster to the Fraternity roll. Another provision oF the National Constitution requires that each chapter have at least six professional meetings each year. Eta chapter has never conFined itselF to the required six, but every year has had many proFessional meetings ranging From the Formal type, at which a distinguished speaker presents some phase oF educational endeavor, to ■ I I PHI SIGMA PI the very informal type in which the brothers exchange ideas upon the theory and practice oF education as they currently see it. In this connection Eta chapter originated the mixed professional meeting to which the brothers invite girls of the college. The pro- gram usually consists of an address by a distinguished educator, refreshments, and a social hour. Dr. Keith was an enthusiastic member of Phi Sigma Pi. Upon his death Mrs. Keith presented her husband ' s pin to the fraternity to be used as a memorial award. At a formal service each year the pin is bestowed upon the Junior having the highest scholarship average, to be worn by him for the succeeding year. Mrs. Keith herself awarded the pin for the first year to Glenn Stough, ' 33. The fraternity awards each year a Service Key to the men in the fraternity who have rendered outstanding service to the organization during their college career. Eta chapter is particularly proud of the fact that its ritual teams have twice been selected by the national officers to install new chapters of Phi Sigma Pi.

Fifteen years ago, there was born in the minds of a certain group of young men an idea regarding the organization of such a fraternity. The announcement of the idea was made on June 28, 1920, when a list of thirty names of men who might be interested was posted on a bulletin board at the Central Missouri State Teachers College, requesting them to meet that afternoon for what was to them an unknown purpose. To satisfy their curiosity, nearly all of them responded. Here Mr. Neiman explained briefly the purpose of the meeting, which was to discuss the possibilities of organiz- ing such a fraternity. His idea met with enthusiasm, and a temporary organization was formed, with Mr. Leiand T. Hoback elected temporary chairman and Mr. Emmett Ellis temporary secretary.

History Further records that a second meeting was held on July 21, 1920, at which time the aims, objectives, and ideals were discussed and committees appointed to draw up a con- stitution and by-laws. Another meeting on July 7 oF that year marked the adoption oF the constitution and by-laws oF the Fraternity. OFFicia! recognition was secured and the Greek letters, Sigma Tau Gamma, were appropriately chosen to constitute the name oF the organization, as those letters correspond with the English initials for State Teachers College. Sigma Tau Gamma is the oldest national Fraternity operating exclusively in teachers colleges. In its beginning stages on this campus, Sigma Tau Gamma existed as a local fraternity called Phi Kappa Delta. It was organized in the Fall oF 1929, and plans were soon under way For associating with a good national Fraternity. AFter extended investigation and considerable discussion both by the oFFicers oF Phi Kappa Delta and the local school administration, Sigma Tau Gamma was chosen as the national organization which the local Fraternity would petition For membership. With the usual Formal procedure oF investigation by the national headquarters. Phi Kappa Delta became Pi Chapter oF Sigma Tau Gamma on November 8, 1930, with installation at the Indiana Country Club by the National Executive Secretary, Mr. T. M. Hutsell. After official installation as a national chapter, the next important question confront- ing the fraternity was that of finding a home. The attention of the members was focused on a house just off East Campus. After careful investigation and consultation with lawyers, building experts, and the school administration, negotiations for the purchase of the house were completed on May 20, 1931. Thus, Sigma Tau Gamma became the first teachers college fraternity in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania to have its own chapter home. Probably the most important event since the installation as a national chapter was a regional conclave held at our own chapter home. This event took place May 1 3, 1933. Participating in the conclave were Xi Chapter of Fairmont, Pi of Indiana and Rho oF the Buffalo State Teachers College. The day was most profitable as can be imagined from the program, which consisted of the following activities: 10:00 A.M. to 1 2 noon, campus tour,- 1 2 noon to 1 :00 P.M., lunch in the chapter home,- 1 :00 to 4 P.M., business session; 7:30 P.M., banquet in the college dining room. At this time Mr. Gumm, Superintendent of the Blairsville Schools, and the Rev. Arthur J. Pfohl were formally initiated as honorary members of Pi Chapter. Every year on the night before Christmas vacation begins, the chapter home becomes a place of joyous mirth as the annual Christmas Party gets into full swing. The house is decorated, faculty and alumni are invited, a program is planned and everyone enjoys an evening of merriment. Another annual event is the Senior Farewell Banquet, which takes place in the latter part of May. This affair is sponsored by the younger members of the fraternity in honor of the graduating seniors. At this time a most cherished tradition is executed — the elec- tion of a man who has done the most for the fraternity in every way. He is known there- after as Honor Man of that year, and his picture is placed in the chapter room of the fraternity home. The honor Man represents the ideals of the fraternity as embodied in a continual striving for character and scholarship. 96 ■ I PHI ALPHA ZETA NATIONAL SOCIAL, PROFESSIONAL, EDUCATIONAL FRATERNITY COLORS: PURPLE AND GOLD ESTABLISHED IN 1908 ALPHA CHAPTER TOBIAS CHEW, Sponsor :!«?i First Semester President ROBERT GESEY Vice President RANDALL TOMB Corrcspondins Secretary .

Four years later it became lota chapter of Phi Alpha fraternity. From the time of its initial organization the following purposes, which are still maintained, were adopted: first, to encourage and develop good fellowship and fraternalism within the group,- second, to further scholastic endeavor; third, to build character, and provide an opportunity for prospective teachers to formulate ideas concerning their chosen profession. In July 1929, an application for charter was filed in the Indiana Courthouse by a board of directors stating the condi- tions for and upon which Phi Alpha Zeta wished to be in- corporated as a body politic or corporation, and Alpha chapter was established at Indiana. On December 27, 1930 a national convention was held at the Penn Albert Hotel in Greensburg, Penna. John Alexick of Alpha Chapter was elected Grand High 97 ■ ■ PHI ALPHA ZETA 1935 OAK At the 1931 Convention it was agreed that national headquarters should be lo- cated at Tau Chapter in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania; later during the 1934 convention national headquarters were moved to Indiana. Three men from Alpha Chapter were elected as national officers: Russell Leech, Grand Higher-Arc,- Robert Gesey, Grand Treasurer; and Joseph Pallonc, Grand Scriptor. Phi Alpha Zeta publishes annually its chapter magazine. The Alphian, which in- cludes a calendar of the years activities. More recently a new publication has been inaugurated. The Junior A phian a semi-monthly paper, is prepared for the active members and alumni. Alpha chapter sponsors three professional meetings each semester. Four rush parties each year, the last in the form of a Pig Roast at the School Ledge, a theatre party for all members and their guests, which is followed by an evening of smoking and doing justice to the refreshments. It has merited the title the athletic fraternity because of its large representation on the football, basketball and baseball squads. In intramural basketball the Phi Alphs have set a rapid pace, having been fraternity champions twice in three seasons, and all school winners in 1933. By winning first place in the Indiana County League in 1933 they were awarded a beautiful loving cup. Last year the fraternity placed second. In September, Alpha chapter moved to its new home located at 240 South Eleventh Street. This new home is conveniently ' ocated near the campus. It contains twelve rooms and two baths, all steam heated. The first floor contains the living, social, meeting and guest rooms in addition to a completely furnished kitchen. Six large, comfortable bed- rooms make up the second floor together with two bathrooms. This is the only fraternity boasting of a private tennis court. A spacious lawn provides an excellent place for the boys to play croquet. On January 13, 1935 from two to five o ' clock approximately four hundred guests visited the new home despite the inclement weather. As the visitors entered the home, they were introduced to the patrons and patronesses in the receiving line; then the members serving as ushers escorted them through the house, which was beautifully decorated with palms, ferns and flowers. .a f ' , a« ' during the afternoon a string instrument ensemble fur- j P I H nished soothing and delightful music. Tea was served in the ' dining room by the faculty members ' wives. Each registered guest received a desk calendar as a favor. The first social event of the second semester was a Valentine Party held at the house. Such games as ping-pong, bridge, spoof, horse-racing, and impromptu characterizations were included in the entertainment. Refreshments in the form of hearts, cakes, salad, ice cream and coffee were served. At th e completion of each school term the Phi Alpha Zeta alumni hold a private Spring Dance for the members and graduates. This affair is always anxiously awaited, for it gives the boys a chance to resurrect old and sometimes embarrassing anecdotes. In short, it is the outstanding event of the season. Members of Phi Alpha Zeta claim membership in every male organization on the campus, many of them holding important posts. Each year witnesses the fraternity growing stronger and better, continu- ing its program of activity and maintaining a place of prominence on the campus.

Sigma Sigma Sigma is oldest in the Association of Edu- cation Sororities. Its Alpha Chapter of 1898 is at Farmville, Virginia, where Sigma Sigma Sigma has endowed a library which serves the schools of the community. Mabel Lee Walton, a graduate of Randolph Macon College has been National President for over twenty years. The chapter at Randolph Macon and several others were bequeathed to Delta Delta Delta of the Arts Colleges when National agreement gave the School of Education Campus over to only the Association of Education Sororities. Each year Sigma Sigma Sigma engages in a welfare program of local interests. Lambda gave a parly for the Children ' s Home at Christmas time, and each month some special charity work is carried on. During the week-end of November 9, 1934, Lambda entertained her na- tional inspector, Mrs. Dorothy Whitman, whose visit proved both enjoyable and helpful as it brought interesting news of other chapters as well as of the National Council.

Lambda pledged the following girls to Sigma Sigma Sigma: Mazel Bowles, Florence Brown, Anna Mary Campbell, Mary Church, Betty Fair, Dorothy Hancock, Marion Hancock, Wilma Hochbcrg, Vclma Hughes, Miriam Koozer, Jane McClure, Grace Mitchell, Mary Moltey, Maxine Olson, Harriet Parry, Betty Patlon, Sara Robeson, and Mabel Trainer. The pledges were entertained at a dinner given in their honor at the College Inn, March 8, 1935. Afterward, Mr. Ivy spoke on Modern Trends in Painting. The year ' s activities culminated in the EDNA LEE SPROWLS „„ | celebration of Founder ' s Day in April at which time all Sigma Sigma Sigma sisters in the Greek world give tribute to their mothers and to the founders of the sorority.

One good secret deserved another,so this same group reorganized into one known as Pi Kappa Sigma. Even as early as 1 894 aims and objectives had begun to permeate educational centers. Quite in accordance with this developing earmark oF pedagogy, the aims placed in the constitution were those of stimulating intellectual growth, moral development, and social efficiency. The much-quoted symphony of William Henry Channing has become the sorority symphony because of its embodiment of these aims. And the first shall be last was true in the local history of Zeta chapter. The first sorority to be established at Indiana in 1909, it was the last sorority to be reinstated in 1930 after all sororities had been disbanded for ten years. From that time until this, Zeta has been one of the dynamic _ groups in the national organization. At last summer ' s conven- M KJ tion at Bemidji Beach, Minnesota, the group from this campus iJW llw B given the National Efficiency Award for 1933. Zeta was , previously given this honor in 1931. Two members won second prize for writing the words and music of a Pi Kap song, in developing the professional aspect of sorority life, not only faculty members have assisted, but talent within the group has been used. This year, one of the professional meet- ings each semester was planned and presented by members. The Zetian published this spring for the third time is LAURA REMSBURG another indication of growth within the sorority.

The initiative was taken by five girls who thought there was a void in the social life on the above mentioned campus. So successful was the organization in filling the social vacuum of that institution that it spread to other socially anemic colleges, until at the present, girls on twenty-three university and teachers college campuses think that those times dating B. A. — before Alpha Sig — arc compar- able to life in the Dark Ages before the Renaissance. Alpha Sigma Alpha was organized originally as a social sorority, but reorganized in 1914 as a social-professional sorority restricting its activity to teachers colleges and universities. In the same year the Association of Education Sororities were organized with Alpha Sigma Alpha and Sigma Sigma Sigma as the charter members. Alpha Gamma Chapter with chapters of three other sororities were reinstated on the Indiana campus in 1928, and complacently settled down to getting high scholastic averages. Our activities for the year began with a national convention, held at Old Point Comfort, Virginia, in August. A wonderful convention, wonderful Virginia ham, wonderful view, and wonderful men — the fleet was in. We, however, did take time out from police-escorted tours, cat-boat rides on the bay, and the general hub-bub to attend to the welfare of thesorority. All in all the affair was very satisfactory with Alpha Gamma Chapter romping off with the Efficiency Cup, the highest award given. On the campus we enjoyed several professional meetings with guest speakers before our important social activities began. Our first really big affair was the Founders ' Day dinner-dance attended by a large number of alumni, patron- esses and honorary patronesses. Miss Belden and Miss Mahacheck gave a Christmas party, and the Pan-Hellenic dance came a little later in the month with the Alpha Sigs a hundred percent in attendance. The second semester brought rushing season with two successful parties. The annual professional banquet, the closing social event, took place in May.

Kappa Delta Pi is the outstanding honor society in teachers colleges and in the departments of education in universities throughout the country. Today this national organization is composed of ninety-three chapters located throughout the country. The society admits to membership men and women who have shown by their scholastic records that they are in the upper quartile of the class. The professional and social records of the candidates are also investigated. Students must have at least junior standing in the college to be considered for membership. Kappa Delta Pi endeavors to encourage in its members a higher degree of devotion to social service by (a) fostering high intellectual and personal standards and (b) recogniz- ing outstanding service in the field of education. To this end the society maintains the highest educational ideals and fosters fe llowship, scholarship, and achievement in educa- tional work. To be invited to membership in Kappa Delta Pi is the greatest single honor that may come to a student of Indiana who seeks to rank high in scholarship and worthy profes- sional and social ideals. The presence of Kappa Delta Pi on the campus acts as an incen- tive to higher scholastic realizations. 1935 OAK 114 ■ I President JOHN VALENTINE Vice President HELEN RARIE Recording Secretary ELIZABETH WEAVER Corresponding Secretary MARGARET KEELER Treasurer JOHN SHUSTER Historian FRANCES THOMPSON RICHARD MADDEN Counselor I KAPPA DELTA PI I 1935 OAK Foster Walsh Valentine Shuster Thompson Mpllott Baer Simpson Siciliano Cox Keelor Ruwell Lantz Simpson Stewart Tllton Kelley Fox Davl8 Reece Fritsche Madden Camp Ivy Langsner Angol Shinol Rarie Robinson Mattson Dickinson Weaver Steiner liames Landls Wagner Capellman Neff Hartsock 115 II PI OMEGA PI r NATIONAL HONORARY PROFESSIONAL BUSINESS EDUCATION FRATERNITY ESTABLISHED IN 1923 COLORS- BLUE AND SILVER KAPPA CHAPTER ROBERT WEBB, Councilor President MARGARET KEELER Vice President CHARLES TERRY Secretary BEATRICE KEELER Treasurer KATHRYN SHUPE Historian CARL WALKER 1935 OAK 116 ■I Bl OMEGA PI is a national honorary and professional ' business education Fraternity For men and women in Busi- ness Education.

Miller, Indiana ' s varsity ' football and basketball mentor, began prepa- rations For his ninth gridiron campaign at the local school with nine leitermen back From the previous season, some thirty-Five other candi- dates, and with high hopes For s successFul year. With less than two weeks oF practice, two selected elevens From the squad took to the barred Field For the traditional Red and Slate game which precedes the First regularly scheduled encounter. Although making a Fine showing, it was apparent that a number oF rough spots would have to be ironed out beFore the team would be ready For its initial battle oF the season against Lock Haven the Following Saturday. In this practice skirmish the squad received its first jolt oF the season as Peck McKnight, varsity terminal man From last-year ' s campaign, aggravated an old knee injury, thereby barring his services to the team during the coming games. On Saturday, October 6, Lock Haven brought its husky gridiron aggregation to Indiana to engage the Redmen in the season ' s inaugural tilt. It was with a spirit oF revenge that the invaders took the Field against the Millerite clan. With only two deFeats blemishing their other- wise perFect record since the 1931 sechedule, and both oF them coming at the hands oF Indiana, Lock Haven ' s desire to conquer the Indianians was more than oF present consideration. Woodring Plunges Through at Shippensburg 122 I FOOTBALL The Football Squad I For this game, which was witnessed by an usually fine turnout of spectators, Lock Haven ' s heavier and more experienced footballers were primed to turn back Coach Miller ' s Red and Slate-clad athletes. But fate willed it otherwise, and Indiana started the ball rolling with a 13-6 victory over the center-staters. Before the day was over the crowd saw a veteran Forward-passing combination unleash an aerial attack that literally swept the visitors off their feet. Marshall Woodring, Indiana ' s triple-threat quarterback, and Michael Gendich, veteran backfield flash for the fourth year, alternated on the throwing and receiving ends of the passes and did not stop until Indiana was in the lead by two touchdowns. After a scoreless first quarter, the Redmen took to the air in the second stanza. A series of passes and line plunges placed the oval deep into Lock Haven ' s territory from where Acting-Captain Gendich flipped one of his famous passes to the waiting arms of Woodring for the first touchdown of the 1934 season. The Locksters rallied in the third frame and succeeded in lugging the leather to Indiana ' s two-yard marker. Here a lighter but hard-charging and more alert Indiana line held the Havenites to a standstill for four downs. The Millermen then took possession of the ball and with the aid of two aerial heaves crossed the zero marker for the second time. Gendich passed first to Kenneth Greene and then to Harold Fulton, who scored. Frethy made Lock Haven ' s six-pointer in the fourth quarter after a long pass, a penalty on Indiana, and a three-yard plunge over the goal stripe. 123 MM FOOTBALL GENDICH KING FULTON WOODRING After sending his men ihrough a brisk pace For two weeks. Coach Miller ' s Red and Slate squad was primed to give Edinboro its eighth setback in a series of nine games that have been played between the two schools since 1917. The Erie Countians sported a combination that towered above the Redmen,- their lanky ends were reputed to be quite proficient in the art of snaring of passes. All this was of little significance to the Indians, however, as the packed stands were barely settled when Indiana was well on its way, advancing the oval deep into Edinboro territory for the first touchdown which was to be repeated four times more before the teams finally left the field. Gendich opened the day ' s activities when he scored the first six-pointer a few minutes after the kick-off. Woodring followed suit with three touchdowns, and then Max Dick, brilliant freshman backfield ace, topped off the scoring of the afternoon with a fifth goal. Indiana ' s unerring passing artillery completely baffled the Harrison men who threat- 124 ■ I First Down and Six Inches to Goal I FOOTBALL I MILLER B. WHITING CLARK D. WHITING encd but little to put over a score, and were forced to play a defensive game tfiroughout most of tfie sixty minutes of tugging. By scoring in every quarter to roll up a 33 to advantage, the Redmen turned back tlie up-staters by the greatest margin since 1917 and 1924 when the locals won by 141-0 and 39-0 decisions respectively. A mighty stiff test awaited the Indian tribe on the following Saturday afternoon when the schedule called for a game with Bloomsburg ' s Maroon and Gold eleven on the Indiana field. The easterners had sailed through their first four encounters without being scored on, and were determined to annex another triumph as well as avenge the 25-7 defeat that they had suffered at the hands of Indiana the previous season. The game was played on a mud-soaked field in drizzling rain and storm. Bloomsburg took the lead early in the first period when Woodring ' s punt was blocked by Sircovics and then recovered by Woodring behind the Indiana goal line to credit the invaders with a safety. This was the only tally made by the visitors. Forward passes again played a major part in Indiana ' s scoring as Woodring and Fulton Pu ' -i., Gi_ ' iiilich 10 W ' judriny, for Touchdown 1935 OAK 125 II FOOTBALL both scored on aerial plays. The Millermen were also credited with a saFety when Finder, aFter Fumbling Woodring ' s punt, was tackled behind the sosl line by McDowell and Miller. Indiana ' s sterling Forward wall stacked up against a Bloomsburg line that was well-balanced From one end to the other. Acting-Captain Carl King, Harold Fulton, and Tanky George stood out as constant threats to the opposing ball- carriers throughout the game. King with his aggressive line smashing and tackling, Fulton with the handling oF the passes, and George with his outstanding deFensive power starred on the Indiana line. Time aFter time did that 271 -pound mass oF energy in the personage oF Clark ram through the big Maroon linesmen to make way For Indiana ' s rushing backs. Two yearling gridders, McDowell and Hay, perFormed like veterans in this game in which Indiana scored a 14-2 triumph For the third consecu- tive win oF the season. In its First Foreign invasion the Indiana team repeated its Feat oF the previous week and handed the Clarion Teachers a 1 4-2 trimming. This game cost the Indians the loss oF Tanky George, sparkling little 1935 OAK 126 A Bit of Action at Clarion J FOOTBALL varsity center, who sustained a dislocated arm during the fray. Clarion ' s scrappy Purple and Gold S machine put up a game Fight, but Found itselF trailing 14-0 at the close oF the third period. Scoring honors went to Freshmen as Max Dick and Edward Vokes both registered touchdowns For the Miller-coached eleven. Playing against a team composed of practically all seniors, the locals were in For a rough match. Rosenzweig, elongated Clarion end, had to be carried oFf the Field in the last quarter with a broken arm. The Millermen Finished their home season in splendid Fashion when they swamped California ' s invading Vulcans under a 41-7 count which is the highest point advantage recorded by an Indiana team since 1925 when the local collegians vanquished Lock Haven 60 to 0. Lengthy Forward passes, powerFul line smashes, and sweeping end runs featured as Woodring, Gendich, Dick Whiting, Woodring, Tomb, and Max Dick registered touchdowns in the order named. In the last game of the season the Indiana team found itself battling at Shippensburg For its First 1935 OAK Fumble: We Wonder Who Got the Ball 127 FOOTBALL TOMB HAY GEORGE 1935 OAK 128 ■ I Pennsylvania State Teachers College sridiron championship. Both teams sported an impressive string of five victories and no defeats. The stage was set for the crucial match. Perfect weather conditions favored the spectators as well as the gridmen. About three thousand fans faced the striped field, and with the flying colors and music acclaiming the big event, the whistle was sounded for the opening boot of the oval. The story of the fourth quarter is the story of Indiana ' s first state grid crown. After the three periods of scoreless playing, Coach Miller ' s Red and Slate warriors snapped into life and with a mixture of forward passes and line plunges succeeded in shoving over two touchdowns to turn back the Shippensburgers and claim the title. Indiana ' s scoring drive started with Woodring ' s return of Pernet ' s punt 23 yards to Shippensburg ' s 22-yard stripe. Max Dick slashed off tackle for 11 yards and a first down, and then four more to Shippensburg ' s seven. After an incompleted pass from Gendich intended for Woodring, Gendich hit the line for six yards to place the ball three feet from the goal line. When the opposing team expected the Indians to plunge the line, Woodring faded back and passed to Fulton who received behind the goal line for the first touchdown.

Errigo booted the seventh point to finish the scoring of the day and credit the Indians with a 1 3-0 victory. Indiana showed real championship ability as it exhibited a great defensive game during the first half and then turned to the offense in the second session to completely rout the Guilan machine Dick Whiting ' s unusually fine playing on defense and running the ball and blocking on offense stood out as a main barrier to Shippensburg ' s linemen and ball carriers. Eight seniors united their power with the others on the team to take the first state grid championship in the history of the school. Gendich finished his fourth year of varsity football under the Indiana banners by co- captaining this game with Clark, also a senior, who with Carl King and Bill Miller formed the senior nucleus of the line. Richard Whiting, Robert Whiting, Bob Gcsey, and Mike Catazarite finished their college grid careers with this game. By completing a schedule without a defeat or a tie to mar its record, Indiana became the only college in the state to chalk up a perfect season. Hay, Bob Whiting, Errigo Shared This One 1935 OAK 129 II BASKETBALL N ' 1935 OAK 130 Davis at Center |EVER before in the history of basketball at Indiana was there as much expected of any squad as from the twenty-five candidates who responded to Coach George P. Miller ' s call for men the middle of last December. This high anticipation was due to the fact that eight varsity lettermen had returned from last-year ' s state cham- pionship outfit. Kenneth Davis, lanky pivot man on the Indiana teams for three years, was back to hold on to the center berth. Michael Gendich, another senior who starred at guard since his freshman year, answered the call of the court. The forward positions were taken before the season had started as both Marshall Woodring and Harold Fulton donned their uniforms. John Becoskey and James Heazlett, guards, were out, fighting to make the grade on the 1935 quintet, as were Martin Stockdale and Kenneth Greene, varsity forward performers on the title-holding team of the previous season. To augment this nucleus of eight that would have brightened the countenance of the most pessimistic fol- lower of the sport, the reserve material was far from the worst that has reported to Coach Miller during his nine year ' s tutoring of Red and Slate teams. Two pre-season games appeared on the schedule. These matches tested the strength of the team that was to face opponents in sixteen regularly scheduled games. Having had a little more than a week of practice, the Millermen played host to the National Guard, Company D team of Butler, Pa. Here the college boys demonstrated that they could still hold their own on the hardwood floor by handing the visitors an inhospitable 36-28 lacing. Davis and Fulton scored nine points each to lead the Indiana attack. Thirteen Red and Slate players saw action before it was all over. In dedicating a new high school gymnasium at DuBois, Pa., the Kiwanis Club of that city invited the University of Pittsburgh to select an opponent to play a charity game in connection with the dedication ceremonies. Pitt invited Indiana, and Coach Miller took his boys to DuBois on December 21, 1934, to engage the Panthers in the charity duel. The Indians staged a gallant but futile fight against Pittsburgh ' s varsity dribblers. Although clearly outclassed, the 49-19 result did not show a true comparison of the strength of the teams. Heazlett, varsity guard and center for the past two years, sustained a knee injury which kept him out of the lineup for the rest of the season. On January 4 the Indians opened their regular schedule with an overwhelming 48 to 23 victory over a visiting Lock Haven State Teachers College basketball team. Although neither quintet displayed a mid-season form in passing or shooting, the Red and Slate ' s attack was far superior to that shown by the Locksters. High scoring honors went to Davis and Woodring who accounted for fifteen and thirteen of their team ' s points. At no time did Lock Haven threaten to overtake the Indians who lead 24-13 at half time. Coach Miller used eight men besides his starting lineup to open the 1935 season with this one-sided triumph. Buchanan, Lock Haven ' s center, scored almost a third of his team ' s points. ■ ■ BASKETBALL The Basketball Squad For the second same the Millermen were listed to travel to CaliFornia. The Vulcans boasted oF veterans at every position. Having lost but two regulars From their squad oF last year, Coach Steers had eight well-seasoned players primed to Face the Redmen. The Vulcans stacked up a brilliant spirited oFfensive drive that spelled deFeat For the Redmen, who Found it extremely diFFicult to connect with the basket even at easy angles. Indiana ' s oFf-color shooting on the one hand, and CaliFornia ' s time ly scoring on the other combined to give the Red and Black the upper hand throughout the contest. At the close of the match the Indians Found themselves on the short end oF a 38 to 25 score which turned out to be a hard jolt For Indiana ' s chances to deFend the state title. Watkins with thirteen tallies was responsible For the exact diFFerence oF points between the two scores. Woodring, Davis, Fulton, Greene, and Stockdale scored almost all of Indiana ' s points. St. Vincent College, the only school to give the Indians two trimmings in last year ' s basketball series, brought its Green and Gold Floormen to Indiana on January 15. Bearing those defeats well in mind, the Teachers proceeded to give the Saints a Few tips in basketball. Playing at a whirlwind clip, the Indiana cagers jumped oFf to an early lead and were pacing the visitors 24-11 at the intermission. The Latrobeans were bewildered a Indiana ' s ability to sweep down the length oF the court and catch the meshes with unusual accuracy. Seeing that short-range shots were out oF the question, the Bearcats resorted to lengthy arches that netted them most of their points. Woodring, Davis, and Fulton combined their shots to score more points than the entire St. Vincent outfit. Five other Indians helped gain points. The game was a thrilling and Fast aFfair From start to finish. Both teams delayed but little in putting the ball in action. It was one oF the best played games that has been seen on the local court For some time. The final score: Indiana 47, St. Vincent 30. Clarion, an underdog to Indiana athletic teams For many years, continued to make way For another Red and Slate victory. Its scrappy basketball outfit invaded the local 1935 OAK BASKETBALL gymnasium, but Failing to check Indiana ' s two scoring aces, Fulton and Woodring, leFt here suffering from a decisive defeat of 43 to 30. The Purple and Gold basketeers put up a game fight, but could not cope with Indiana ' s fast-breaking combination and were at a loss when it came to matching point- making power. Clarion trailed by three points at the half and were further outclassed in the second half when the Millermen gained an advantage of ten points. Martin Stockdale, varsity man for the past two seasons, captained this game which, due to mid-term graduation, was his last under the Indiana banners. After enjoying a comfortable lead of eight points with just a few minutes to go before the final gun. Coach Miller ' s Red and Slate passers saw the St. Vincent College Bearcats spring to life and drop in a barrage of field goals in rapid succession to nose them out by a heart-breaking score of 31 to 3 0. This return engagement with the Green and Gold was played on the Latrobe Armory court. Indiana ' s superior foul shooting and making of goals enabled them to maintain an 1 8-1 3 lead at the half. This margin was increased in the following period, but the home team rallied in the last few minutes to turn the tables and claim the victory by a slim margin of a single point. Davis paced the scorers with four goals from the filed and as many free throws. What hit the Millermen harder than the loss of this game was a severe wrist injury to Davis, high-scoring center and keystone man on the Indiana defense. This injury, more than any one single factor, proved disastrous for Indiana ' s chances to make a clean sweep of its games. With Davis on the bench nursing an injured wrist, the Redmen entertained a visiting Pitt-Xenia Seminary quintet. The game turned out to be a free-for-all as eleven of the fourteen Indiana players who broke into the lineup helped pile up 51 points while the 1935 OAK 132 Fulton Gendich McDowell Becoskey I BASKETBALL invaders were held down to 28. The United Presbyterian theologians Found themselves pitted against Fast company when even the Red and Slate reserve men succeeded in out- scoring them. John Strong, yearling center, rolled in three two-plyers and the same number oF Fouls to lead the point-making parade with nine tallies. The Pittsburghers sported a lanky combination but were no match For the more experienced local tossers. CaliFornia was the next Foe to appear on the local Floor. In a game that was Fought at a desperately Fast clip, Indiana ' s deFensive work Featured, but Faulty shooting kept down the scoring. ShiFty Floor work and more accurate aiming on the part of the Redmen characterized the second halF. About eight minutes beFore the Final gun, the Indians rallied with three Field goals to put the game on ice. The Final result was a 30 to 23 win For Indiana which evened the series at one apiece. Woodring, Fulton, Gendich, and Davis made a Fine showing on the Red and Slate oFFense, while Weaver scored almost halF oF CaliFornia ' s points. Clarion tasted its second deFeat at the hands oF the Miller dribblers when it bowed 34 to 24 in a game in which the list!essness was broken only by the rough tactics em- ployed. The Jones-coached team held the lead at the intermission, but this was soon wiped out in the second halF as the Indians began sinking the goals. Woodring with Fourteen points was the evening ' s high-point perFormer. Sporting a three-game winning streak, the Red and Slate basketmen motored to Slippery Rock only to be halted by the Rockets by a score oF 35 to 22. Indiana trailed 14-12 at halF time, but with the Thompson men catching the meshes on repeated long throws in the second period, the gap widened so that in the last minutes oF the game the Redmen were hopelessly on the short end oF the score. Fulton broke loose to score ten points, but the close guarding kept the Indians away From the basket, while the timely bagging oF points by the Green and White tossers Errigo Woodring Greene Davis ■ ■ 1935 OAK I 133 ■ ■ BASKETBALL Davis Making a Foul Against Pitt 1935 OAK 134 ■ I tended to give the latter team a decided edge. Davis Feeling the eFfects of his weakened wrist, for the First time in his four years of intercollegiate playing failed to score a single point. Edinboro also took the measure of the Millerites on the up-state court. Indiana ' s comfortable nine-point lead close to the third quarter was wiped out by a fierce last minute scoring spree staged by the Red and White quintet, and as a result the Miller basketballers dropped their third State Teachers College game by a score of 35 to 28. Starting with a 33 to 25 victory over the Pitt-Xenia Seminary passers, the Indians launched upon a winning stride that saw them conquer their five remaining foes in Fine fashion. The varsity dribblers braved the severe weather conditions and made their schedule invasion on the Pittsburgh seminarians. A second win over the theologians was recorded before they turned homeward where three matches on the local gymnasium court awaited them. In this last home stay. Slippery Rock was the first team to bow to the Redmen. Indiana kept the Rockets well in check as the visitors scored but two foul goals during the first seventeen minutes of play. This 30 to 26 triumph avenged an earlier defeat at the hands of the Green and White. Edinboro and Shippensburg visited the Indiana court on successive days. In the first game the Redmen held a commanding lead of twenty points at the close of the third period, but this was abruptly narrowed down to a 39-33 victory as the Erie County boys took advantage of Indiana ' s second-string players. The next afternoon the Redmen continued the onslaught of the evening before by scalping the Red and Blue Devils from Shippensburg by a count of 51 to 36. With this decisive win the Indians closed a perfect heme season having disposed of eight foes on the local floor without a single defeat. On the Final jaunt of the year Coach Miller took his men to Lock Haven and then closed the season at Bloomsburg. The trip was a decided success as they bowled over the Havenites 48 to 29 and conquered the Maroon and Gold outfit 38 to 34. I BASKETBALL Fulton distinguished himselF in the First encounter when he snared the hoop eight times from the field and dropped in four out of four free throws for a grand total of twenty points. The Bloomsburg match was a somewhat more closely contested affair. Indiana lagged until the third period when the score stood at a 28-28 deadlock, after which they out- scored the easterners to the final gun to close the season with the sixth consecutive victory. With this game ended the collegiate basketball days of Kenneth Davis, brilliant varsity center on the Red and Slate court t eams for the past four seasons, and Michael Gendich, flashy aggressive guard for the same number of years. The 1935 campaign was a truly successful one. Twelve wins were recorded, eight of them being played on the home court. The warriors broke even on the trips by winning four out of eight. No team succeeded in upsetting the Millermen on two occasions, while they scored double wins over Lock Haven, Clarion, and Pitt-Xenia Seminary. Woodring set the scoring pace by amassing a total of 140 points. Fulton with 135 and Davis with 116 were the other high-point men. Gendich, Greene, and Dick followed with 47, 36, and 33 points respectively.

Fifteen men reported. Veterans oF previous years were Russel Leech, Leonard Pearson, John Manner, and Charles Davis. After three weeks of hard prac- tice and a series of eliminations. Coach Prugh issued a ranking for the varsity squad in this order — Russel Leech, Trevor Hadley, Leonard Pearson, John Manner, Edward Zellers, Charles Davis, Gerald Burke, and Robert Blanc. With favorable weather the men had splendid opportunties for prac- tice and were well prepared to meet Lock Haven on April 28. Unfortu- nately the Havenites ' courts had had an overdose of spring showers which prevented the formation of Lock Haven ' s team and necessitated the postponement of the match. After the disappointment the Indians looked forward eagerly to the coming match with California, scheduled for May 8 at California. The hosts ' veteran team, however, proved too staunch a foe for Indiana ' s newly organized squad and defeated it by the score of 5-1. Indiana ' s lone victory was secured by Hadley who defeated Martin of California. That evening Mr. Prugh took the squad to Pittsburgh to see Vines play Tilden. The following week California dropped in to visit Indiana ' s players just to prove that Vines and Tilden were good but watching them would not improve Indiana ' s playing. The score was 7-2, with the Indians ' scalp in California. Pearson, by winning his singles match, gave Indiana one point, the other being secured by Leech and Hadley in a double set. The following day, the Mansfield squad with ten victories under its belt, trailed into Indiana and took 8 points with the greatest of ease, leaving Indiana with 1, secured by Chuck Davis. Intoxicated with pride, Indiana ' s stalwart braves met the formidable Kiski squad and practically annihilated it with a score of 5-4. Leech, Hadley and Pearson won singles matches; the Leech-Hadley and Pearson-Zellers combinations took over their opponents in doubles. The 1 935 season will open with the loss of Leech and Davis, but with the addition of promising new men and a stronger schedule.

Under the coaching oF Paul Boyts, the team assumed a dangerous Ty Cobbian style oF hitting. This asset, coupled with a Formidable staFF oF pitchers carried the Boyts Battalion to seven victories against one loss. On April 28th the Red and Slate inaugurated its season by crossing bats with Lock Haven at Indiana. The first inning culminated with the Lockers earning Four runs. Ken Greene replaced Pooler, hlis neat relieF work became shaky in the ninth inning. Ken Davis relieved him to retire the rivals and Finish the game in Indiana ' s Favor 9-7. Wood- ring and Fulton led the hitting. St. Vincent ' s crack outFit was the next opponent. The contest was played at Latrobe. A wild, erratic style of baseball speedily developed, hieaving, slugging, wild pitching and weird base running prevailed while the Indiana batters were out-hitting the opposi- tion. Their pitchers were walking the whole Vincent team. The unFortunate score proved to be St. Vincent 1 3, Indiana 8. For the second time the Lock Haven nine Fell beFore the swinging bats oF I. S.T.C. Pooler hurled masterFul ball. Davis and Anderson poled out home runs, while Mish Woodring helped the cause with three terriFic drives into deep outField. The Final inning ended Indiana 8, Lock Haven 6. Indiana next met and deFeated CaliFornia at Indiana. Davis allowed one bingle For eight innings. Then Kloce, opponent First basemen tied the score with a long homer. The Red and Slate won out in the tenth inning. Score, 6-5. Kiski greeted the Indianians with a determination to win that ball game, but Ken Greene, the other member oF the Ken pitching act hurled a remarkable game. He held the Kiski nine to Four scant singles and scored a shut-out. The Final was 4-0. 1935 OAK 137 ■ ■ BASEBALL Coach Boyts started his second stringers against Graceton of the Indiana County League. Later the First stringers were called to service. All in all, twenty-three players romped the diamond under the Red and Slate colors. The college emerged victorious, when Pooler drove in the winning run with a screeching single. The runs were 9-8. Davis twirled Faultless ball against CaliFornia in the return game. The Indians ap- preciated his eFForts by knocking in eight tallies to win 8-2. Revenge the baseball brains of the Kiski athlates when they came to Indiana. Again Coach Boyts assigned his giant killer to the mound. Ken Greene pitched a heads up game.

Woodring, Anderson and Roney seldom Failed to connect For a long drive. The team ' s Fielding was Fast and smooth. The genuine co-operation was oF big league calibre. Coach Boyts upheld the morale oF the team and played the cards with strategic accuracy. This season marked the third year that he has coached college baseball.

The program has created a wide interest, as shown by the increasing number oF participants each year, in the various sports and events that come under the intramural program. The range oF sports under this program meets the diverse interests and capacities oF a large group oF boys in school who are not endowed physically to meet the keener competition oF the more Formalized activities oF the college athletic program. All intramural sports are under the supervision oF the Intramural Board oF Control. The Board consists oF the Head oF the Physical Education Depart- ment, Mr. Sanders, as chair- man, the Varsity Coach, Mr. Miller, the Assistant Varsity Coach, Mr. Prugh, the Super- visor oF Intramural Sports, Mr. Boyts, and the Assistant Super- visor, Dr. Madden. Martin Hauser was Intramural Manager the First semester and Robert Intramural Board of Control Jordan the second Semester. I INTRAMURALS Horseshoe Chamns The intramural prosram has been conducted successfully for the last three years by the Supervisor, Mr. Boyts of the Geography Depart- ment, and his assistant. Dr. Madden of the Education Department. Other members of Indiana ' s faculty will help to conduct various sports in the near future because of the rapid growth and keen interest that is being shown in the intramural program. Since all students at Indiana are preparing for the teaching profession it necessarily follows that the aims of intramurals as set forth in such schools as the University of Michigan, Harvard and Yale which in effect are summed up in the phrase Athletics for all, would not suffice. Briefly stated the aims of the Intramural Program for men at Indiana are: to prepare boys to organize and promote intramural, or inter-class sports in public schools,- to teach boys who are not particularly athletically in- clined the fundamentals and rules oi sports which would fit into the intramural programs of the elementary and secondary schools,- to teach and train students in those athletic activities in which they could participate after school life as a profitable use of leisure,- athletics for present enjoyment and improvement of health. The plan as worked out by the supervisors provides for a complete program of fall, winter and spring activities. The awards of this program are: a certificate of achievement, a general participation certificate, an efficiency award and an honor award. The certificates will be awarded to those boys who have participated in a prescribed minimum of activities. These certificates will be based on three years of participation, and the minimum of activities will be low enough to give all boys an opportunity to receive one without interference with more formalized activities on the college athletic program. The efficiency award, an emblem, will be given to boys who meet the requirements for a partici- pation certificate and who, in addition, have served as sports manager or assistant and have passed satisfactorily examina- tions on the rules and general knowledge of a minimum of four sports. j Winning Speedball Team 1935 OAK 139 II INTRAMURALS 1935 OAK Fear Intramural Tennis Leaders Daley The honor award, a red woolen jacket with an honor award em- blem, will be given to the three juniors who have shown greatest eFficicncy in the entire program, who have not earned a varsity letter in two or more sports, and who have met all requirements for the eFficiency award. This efficiency will be determined objectively by means of a point system. A record of all participants in the Intramural Program will be kept in the office of the Physical Education Depart- ment, and in the office of the Appointments Bureau. The Intramural Program for the year 1934-35, which started Sep- tember 18, was destined to be the most successful since the inaugura- tion of amateur sports at Indiana. Early in the fall the Intramural Board of Control elected Martin Hauser, Commercial ' 35, as manager for the first semester, and Robert Jordan, Commercial ' 36, as manager for the second semester. The custom has been to elect a senior to manage the first semester with a junior as his understudy. By the time the senior goes out to do his practice teaching, his assistant is well qualified to take up duties as head manager. The arrange- ment of all sports activities rests entirely with the manager, which makes the whole program a student activity, under the direction of the Intramural Supervisor. The first two fall events, sponsored and opened to all men enrolled in school, were horseshoes and tennis. Thirty men signed up for the former, which was won by Carl Byers. In the final match between Byers and Murphy, Byers slung the horseshoes like an old veteran, kept the peg well covered and eked out a close decision over Murphy. Carl attributes his proficiency, in the art of tossing the U shoe in true barnyard style, to his marksmanship in sharp-shooting. He is the proud possessor of three medals in this sport, and claims that his accuracy in hitting the bull ' s eye is a transfer into horseshoes when it comes to sighting the peg. The tennis tournament was divided into two classes. Class A for those who were more proficient and Class B for those not quite so proficient. Twenty-three men aspired to great heights in the senior group with twenty-seven indicating a desire to win the junior loop. After the many matches in each class, came the play-offs in which Bob Gessler copped the Class A championship and George Fear the Class B championship. Immediately following the completion of the horseshoe and tennis tournaments, the fast and fascinating game of speedball got under way on East Campus. Either skill, speed, or strength was requirement enough to insure participation in this sport since it is a combination of soccer, football and basketball. Two teams, one organized and captained by James Hess, and the other by Melvin Angus, sought their laurels in this new sport that invaded our campus. After playing several breath-taking games, the Independents, captained by Angus, were proclaimed the champs. 140 INTRAMURALS Volley ball was the next sport scheduled on the program and attracted a large number of boys. In fact, the seventy-eight boys who participated, composed the largest league of ' s ' ; its sort ever formed at Indiana. The success , 3 ' , of this sport can be attributed to bad weather :t s.! __u . that set in; and the boys found seclusion in sl Biii I f the gymnasium, participating in a very inter- ..W esting but not too strenuous game. Because of the large numbers involved the games were interesting and many of them were of the highest calibre. The Secondary Eds set a fast pace and were a stubborn foe to all who tried to defeat them. The final standings of the teams were: , ■ ' Team Won Lost Pet. f Secondary Ed 6 1.000 W Musics 5 1 .833 m f m Independents 3 3 .500 B iBf B| ' , _ Cottage C 2 4 .333 ■ B 1 B V Sigma Tau Gamma. . 2 4 .333 Mti i K Hk ( i Cottage A 1 5 .166 • ' - ■ ■k Preceding the Christmas holidays intramu- ral basketball was started. Since the inaugu- ration of intramurals, basketball has always winners of volleyball League been the largest sport represented and the one in which competition is by far the keenest. A total of thirteen teams sent in their contracts with names of 140 players, managers and coaches. Practice periods were arranged and scrimmages were held between selected teams at different times. These practices proved conclusively that the following season would be one of great rivalry and acute competition. The coaches of these teams were mostly Varsity basketball players, who taught the players the fundamentals of basketball along with a few floor plays and center plays. As an incentive for a better brand of basketball the following plan was used: Games were scheduled with some of the neighboring high schools. The intramural team leading the league at the scheduled date was privileged to play. Some of the high schools chosen were Clymer, Marion Center, Armagh and Blairsville. The main purpose of this scheme is to give the various high schools of the county a chance to get acquainted with our large floor. Each year the Indiana County Basketball Tournament is conducted in our Physical Education Building. The various high schools are eager to play on the Indiana court for it affords them an excellent opportunity to prepare for the tournament. Another purpose of such a scheme is to let the non-varsity men play with a well-coached, smooth playing, and accurate shooting aggregation. It met with much approval and will continue to be . a part of the program in the future. Intramural basketball is conceded to be the most popular sport in the whole program and each year witnesses its growing popularity. Keen rivalry between all the teams is one outstanding characteristic, and one that guarantees First class, high-calibre games. The 1935 OAK 141 INTRAMURALS Musics have started something by having a cheering section at most of their games, and now many oF the teams have a cheer- ing section of their own. The Phi Sigma Pi team coached by Michael Gendich secured the championship by virtue of winning eleven games out of twelve starts. Their excellent teamwork, fine pass- ing, and expert marksmanship were factors to their credit which helped them to clinch the much coveted prize of first place. Many close and inter- esting games were played dur- ing the season but the two outstanding games were the Phi Sigs vs Phi Alphs and Musics vs Phi Sigs. Each game was decided by a margin of one point, the Phi Sigs taking the first and the Musics the sec- ond, which was the only game that the Phi Sigs lost. The Independents set a fast pace but found competition a little bit too stiff in a few of the games. The Sig Taus improved their style of playing later in the season but all to no avail against the better-coached teams in the league.

The selections • were made on the basis of . 4 outstanding performances f . T « . - i ,v t f ,- throughout the season. Those 1 i. chosen were: Sheehe, Gesey, - ' J ■ s Hadley, Pearson, Barr, Manner, t UHl ' M ii B aI Ih Savukas, Berretta, Hess, Ling, I Hk I Hk I V Perischetti and Robertson. In a J f ' JT ' fast and hard-fought game with i i Clymer High School, which • ' i went two extra periods, the i  , i r All-Stars finally won out, the final score being 36-32. This game marked the close of . L . M fl B HfJ basketball and the boys turned their thoughts to foul-shooting. , , Becoskey Green George When the call was made for Foul Shooting winners participants in foul-shooting the managers and directors were amazed to find that nearly one hundred boys responded. Of this hundred, forty-one qualified for the second round, by sinking 1 2 or more fouls out of the first twenty-five trials. For the third round, the entrant had to make 27 or more fouls in 50 free throws. Many of the first round survivors had to drop out, until finally only twelve remained in the finals. This is a great increase over the number of finalists who toed the mark heretofore. The finalists had to undergo the severe grilling of a razzing section. A semi-circle of chairs was arranged directly behind the foul-shooting stripe, and as each contestant stepped up to shoot his last 25, the people in the reserved section just hooted, howled, brayed, cat-called, and hissed, in an attempt to distract the person shooting. Really, it was quite a strain. Many of the boys asked for a Camel to give them steady nerves, but then, the coach was around — well that ' s another story. This year, for the first time since 1933, when foul-shooting became an intramural sport, a member of the Varsity basketball team won the contest. Prior to this year, the winner or runner-up did not play with the Varsity. This was especially encouraging because many boys in school are of the opinion that they do not stand a ghost of a chance with the fellows who practice daily on the hardwood court. Their opinions are erroneous, because in foul-shooting everyone has an equal chance. Novices as well as those with experience have the same opportunities. More and more are realizing this fact, as evidenced by the increasing number who turn out each consecutive year. The four highest in the 1935 tournament follow: Kennetti Greene 77 out of 1 00 Franklin Georse 71 out of 100 John Becoskey 71 out of 1 00 Harold Fulton 69 out of 1 00 1935 OAK 143 INTRAMURALS CHEERLEADERS Marion Lazzaro Byers Mucha Immel Manager SARA McMONEGAL Assistant Manager DOROTHY MOORE Secretary MILDRED WEBER Point Secretary WILMA KUCERA Social Chairman RUTH GRAHAM Publicity Manager HELEN SYBERT Enrollment in the college makes every woman a member oF Women ' s Athletic Activities.

The Hockey Sports Day was held at Indiana, November 3, the Volleyball at Clarion, January 12, and the basketball at Slippery Rock, March 16. This plan not only encouraged greater participation in intra-mural sports but gave the winning team an opportunity to play with an outside college. Instead of monthly business meetings with four events a year, a party was held at the end oF each quarter. At the Athletic Banquet, third quarter party, those girls having earned a thousand points were awarded the Varsity I. In addition to the sports days and the parties, a high school Play Day was held May 11. The Women ' s Varsity I has For its president, Sara McMonegal and as treasurer, Velma Davis. Credit For participation in activities is given through the point system. Girls earning two hundred points receive their numerals,- with each additional two hundred a chevron, and with a thousand points they are awarded the I, becoming members of the Women ' s Varsity I. The purposes oF this organization are to unite the women oF the college who have actively participated in the physical education program and have merited their varsity letter, and to Foster Fellowship in sports and recreation. The present membership is but Four: Velma Davis, Theresa Langsner, Josephine Radaker and Sara McMonegal. ARCHERY Manager HELEN SYBERT A Junior Columbia Round was shot this year.

This is an activity attractive to many girls interested not only in recreation For the present but in a cultural attainment (or the future. Beginners, enjoying this exercise one quarter were so enthusi- astic that advanced classes were scheduled. HOCKEY Manager WILMA KUCERA Interest in hockey was especially keen this year when the girls discovered that the winning teams would have the opportunity to play with Slippery Rock and Clarion at the Hockey Sports Day. This hour for practice, held late in the afternoon, was filled with fun and exercise. Captains of the winning teams were Mary Jane Mcintosh and Arlene George. 149 FRESHMEN SOPHOMORES JUNIORS SENIORS CLASSES IN MEMORIAM ILEONARD EARL THOMAS FRESHMEN HARPER CLAYCOMB President MARION UPTON Vice President SARA LINDIG Secretary JAMES HESS Treasurer The Freshman Class 154 FRESHMEN FRESHMAN OFFICERS President HARPER CLAYCOMB Vice President MARION UPTON Secretary SARA LINDIG Treasurer JAMES HESS JANE McGRATH Sponsor FOUR hundred and Fifty green things should make quite an impression on our campus. That ' s just what this year ' s freshman class did: Greenies entering into activities, starring on athletic teams, sitting open-mouthed at lectures and Leonard Lit, being independent when Rushing went on, joining the stag line in Rec Hall, gasping at the huge number of Q. P ' s. received. The culmination of the social training of this year came with the Freshman Prom the night of March 9. To use the campus vernacular — everyone was there, from campus dates and split bids to steadies from home and blinds from someone else ' s home. There ' s a freshman who is going to develop into something fine, is a familiar phrase that indicates the quality of individuals in the class. By the time we ' re seniors, we hope an equally familiar phrase will be, Such an efficient and talented class. That ' s not conceit; its professional attitude — well placed.

This large number was due to the fact that all students who were on the campus for their second year were considered sophomores. With such a large number of students composing the class, all class functions were prophesied successes even before all plans were made. Under the personal guidance of Dr. Guy P. Davis, the class adviser, the program for the year was outlined and efficient officers elected. To speed up class activity and to save time, the policy of having an Executive Council was adopted. This council consisted of the four class officers, the three sophomore Student Council members, and the class adviser. This Council discussed the problems of the class and made suggestions which helped the various class meetings to be carried on smoothly. March second the first exclusive Sophomore Prom in the history of the college was held in Recreation Hall. Because of the large number in the class it was decided to hold the junior and sophomore proms independently, instead of the customary Junior-Sophomore Prom. Rec Hall was beautifully decorated in black and silver mixed with the green of large palms and ferns. The faculty and two members of the class received the class members and their guests as they entered Rec Hall. Over one hundred and thirty-five couples came to enjoy the captivating music of George Silver and his orchestra who came from Uniontown to play. The couples danced to this melodic music until the intermission when delicious punch and wafers were served. When the intermission was over the first Sophomore Prom was on its way to a decidedly successful conclusion.

The goal- setting and hero-worship of those former days took real root last year as the present Juniors became Sophomores and thus real bidders for the place they hold this year. Entering the ranks of the upper classmen has been another wholesome experience for them, and the activities of the class this term have shown that a good Junior Class will inevitably become creditable graduation material next year. The Junior Class includes 215 of Indiana ' s total enrollment. Early in the term, the class hit upon an organization idea designed to make unneces- sary the somewhat impractical mass class meetings. Under the plan adopted, an executive committee made up of the sponsor, all officers, and one additional member from each college department was named by the class and empowered to carry on all business matters not requiring a direct vote of the entire class. Besides the officers, the committee consisted of Jane Dick and Ray Mille r from the Business Education Department, Lucille North from the Music Department, Leonard Pearson from the Secondary Education Department, Ruth Sawyer from the Home Economics Department, and The class held its first exclusively Junior Prom this year. Departing from the customary procedure of holding an annual Sophomore-Junior Prom, the second and third year classes agreed mutually to hold individual dances. Both affairs were notable successes. About one hundred couples were in attendance at the Prom, held April 6 in Recreation Hall. All the success that characterized the former combined dance was CHARLES JOHNSON in evidence as the Juniors and guests strutted in this, their very Sponsor own activity. 1935 OAK 159 SENIORS 1935 OAK Success 160 MARJORIE LANTZ Vice President SENIORS RUTH GILL President MARY JANE GOURLEV Secretary HELEN RARIE Treasurer SENIOR OFFICERS President RUTH GILL Vice President MARJORIE LANTZ Secretary MARY JANE GOURLEY Treasurer HELEN RARIE MERRILL lAMS Sponsor 1935 OAK 161 ART MARJORIE BLACKSTONE Perry High School Pittsburgh Delta Sigma Epsilon, Historian 3, President 4; Y.

Sporting Goods The Winchester Store 216 LAST MINUTE SCOOP After risking our lives a dozen or more times, throush our constant endeavor and natural persistence, we Finally succeeded in obtaining this exclusive interview with Sir Twitty and Dame Twotty. Here you Find it in print For the First, and we suspect, the last time. In answer to our First query — how the Fiscal year, 1934-35, had treated them — both agreed that this stretch had been a most severe one, what with so many oF the students going snobbish, and all the snow we had at that. It seems that not only were oFFerings exceedingly infrequent but because oF the depression, a con- siderable number of the student body had actually chisled in on the natural pickings which, before the Democrats got In, were reserved For these devotees oF higher, higher learning. When asked why so many had desert- ed their ranks. Sir Twitty inFormed us that, though he had no actual prooF oF it, he suspected it was because oF the unreason- able conservatism oF their administration, and the unbearable amount of social pressure which had of late been applied. Dame Twitty was sort of griped at the great number of dogs which had been visiting our campus this year. We prom- ised to see what we could do about get- ting some of the older, dead trees cut down and removed. We were about to ask Dame Twitty to verify the rumor that the only other mem- ber of the cult had gone misogynist, when the campus bell tolled its toll, and Sir Twitty and Dame Twotty entered off to their seclusion, as all good squirrels should.

That was the darn ' fool in me. The year before I went to school, I bounced a pebble Off a fourth-grader ' s car And did not run. That was the darn ' fool in me. I truly pitied The serious chap Who taught me high school math; He would never understand Me and Al Einstein. That was the darn ' fool in me. I used to think That when a college teacher asked, And what is your opinion? I should give my own, Not his. That was the darn ' fool in me. Last week I met a charming girl; Just five feet tall she is. With hazel eyes that seem to say, I wish that wc had met before. But anyway, here we are.
