Indiana University of Pennsylvania - Oak Yearbook / INSTANO Yearbook (Indiana, PA)

Text from Pages 1 - 224 of the 1940 volume:

 • - PRESfOIIIlG The year 1940 has been a historv - making one for Indiana. The editors believe that the attitude of the entire school itself reveals a definite trend toward a new era. There is a new optimism, a new progressiveness, a new growth of body and spirit. The Staff of the 1940 Oak has tried to keep in mind these vital changes in pub- lishing a yearbook that interprets the College in transition. The size of the book has been changed to one of greater length and width; informality has been the keynote of the book ' s composition; realistically recorded student life and college activity have been of primary consideration in pre- senting to the students of Indiana this publication, the 1940 Oak, 1940 Oak « VOLUME XXIX STATE TEACHERS COLLEGE, INDIANA, PENNSYLVANIA ■I, ' V - , . . t!L !

KING „ HAT Have Given Their Invaluable Support ix Building Institution, stone on stone, thought on thought, or dccil on deed, we dedicate this annual record of accomplishments proudly an thankfully. That group is made of thousands who have watched grow from infancy and continue to watch us as we expand our i tellcctual and physical vistas. Such a group that makes for pow and strength and gives us courage for the ever-changing future. Not only do we consider those who have contributed in the past, but those present and coming students who have the welfare of the school and its far-reaching influence constantly in mind. It is this same group which has given b;st in inaugurating and furthering those customs and traditions of which Indiana is so proud. This year, as never before, the entire school, students, and administration alike, is determined to insure the security of this spirit. Those changes which appear are not new and radical, but are built on the strength and encouragement of the old. To Those People and Things That Have Made This Possible we dedicate the 1940 O.ik. v3 - . ' i ' - M ' f- m ;t .-- m ■•:■ I i Oii? .-. i fiaalz Om Executives Classes « Faculty f ooJz wa ActUUtieA.

King, graduate of York County Academy, Millersville Stare Teachers College, Columbia Univer- sity, and the University of Pennsyl- vania, came to Indiana in the summer of 1939. He has shown a vital interest in all that students undertake, both curricular and extracurricular. Dr. King has introduced new poli- cies and programs relative to curricu- la, personnel, student life, and the physical plant which have aided the college in justifying its existence as an outstanding teacher-training insti- tution. Working in conjunction with the President is the Board of Trustees, the administrative body of the school. Membership of the Board is limited to nine persons appointed by the Gov- vernor. Their careful judgment and progressiveness are manifested in In- diana ' s present improvements and advancements. BOARD OF TRUSTEES ]4 Sxecutires M.mlKw j W aUh Lame to liiJiana in 1920 as an lAUicatinn Dcpairiiicnt teacher. In the fall of 1928 he became Dean of Instruction, the position he now holds Sincerelv interested in assisting the students, Dv. Walsh has been extreme- ly successful in coping with various types of curriculiiiii problems. DEAN OF MEN DEAN OF INSTRUCTION Florence B. Kimball who cam.e to Indiana in 1936 assumed her present position, Dean of Wom.en, in 1938. Walter M. Whitmyre first tcolc over the duties cf Dean cf Men in 1917 in addition to ser ing en the fac- ulty of the Social Studies Departm.ent. The Deans collaborate in the supervisicn cf student life on campus. Approximately 950 wcmen and 4C0 men are under their guidance each semester. Beth Miss Kimball and Mr. Whitmyre are popular for their co- operation in student activities. DEAN OF WOMEN 15 11 ill BURSAR William Shuster, a University of Pittsburgh graduate, assumed the Bursar ' s duties in 1927. After a three years ' absence he returned to Indiana in 1939. All college hnancial matters are handled by the Bursar and his staff. Mr. Shuster also supervises campus organizations ' funds, except those of the Student Co-operative Association. REGISTRAR Mary L. Esch, an Indiana graduate, has served as Registrar since 1916. With the exception of those pertain- ing to finances, all records are handled in her office. It is she who conducts registration at the beginning of each semester. Despite the tremendous vol- ume of work in her hands, Miss Esch is always ready to be of assistance. DIRECTOR OF PERSONNEL Paul Boyts was appointed Person- nel Director by Dr. King in the fall cf 1939- Mr. Boyts came to Indiana in 1930 as a teacher in the Geography Department, a position he still holds. The advisory system, extracurricu- lar activities, student employment, home and visiting athletic reams ' supervisi::)n, freshman ori ntati n, and publicity are the Personnel Di- rector ' s problems. ]6 Faculty Men: Don ' t forget lunch today at the Dell . . .

Al- though the smallest of the specialized departments, its enrollment is grow- ing, largely because of the established reputation for thorough preparation in art education. Incidentally, the ex- cellent spirit of comaraderie between faculty and students has helped spread this reputation. The art faculty in- cludes eight persons, linely equipped not only to teach special subjects well, but also to inspire their students to equal or surpass them. The art course, admittedly for lay- ing a foundation in techniques, offers opportunity for widely varied and in- tensified experiences in teaching. Its spirit is one of broadminded yet sane progressiveness; its endeavor, practi- cal; its ultimate aim, the development of a fine personality in an artist-teach- er. Its success is reflected in its gradu- ates ' constant contributions material- ly and spiritually to the welfare of those within scope of their far-reach- ing and growing influence.

The College has the faculf - ami equipment to offer every phase of preparation and development of music teachers and supervisors. The curriculum is desii ned to i;ive opportunity for intensive preparation in musical content and skills. Con- tinuous study of voice, piano, orches- tral and band instruments is required in a scries of musical, cultural, and professional courses. Since class instruction predominates in the teachint; of public school music, it is imperative that prospective music teachers become familiar with the technique of class management; the psychology of class teaching; the materials available for teaching voice, piano, and orchestral and band instru- ments, for all of which the Music Education Department has provided adequate and well-trained instruction.

PAULINE SANDERS Director of Department The Home Economics Department is based upon the recognition of social problems and the desirability of solving them in a natural habitat. Such practical ap- proaches as care of young children, making and remodel- ing of clothes, experience in actual home management, and training in human relations form important phases of the curriculum. The addition of music and art appreciation to the core curriculum offers opportunity for rounding out of interests. One departmental project of value to the school is the lunchroom management course, which provided com- muters and town students with excellent cafeteria lunches. Among other changes in the department was the initial inclusion of boys ; two of the two hundred twenty- eight regular students were freshman boys. Other changes included the study of textiles as a separate course with emphasis on testing fibres and fab- rics and stress on child studv through added classes in the Nursery School.

McGRATH LILLIAN L McLEAN Director of Klcmeiitary Kd Assistant Director of Elementary E J, This year the Department of Secondary Education was ors anized as a separate en- tity, hrintriny the various academic sub- jects toi ether under the supervision of Ralph Heiges as Director. The enrolhiient of men exceeds that of women two to one. Hence, many Var sity I men receive degrees from this division of the College. Graduates of recent years forced to look beyond the teaching profes- sion for positions are now placed in indus- try, trade, and government service. The advisory system has been reorgan- ized with emphasis placed on the lield of major interest. However, two fields of cer- tification are required for graduation. As an aid to advisory work, profile charts based on standardized tests have been con- structed. Plans have been laid for a Division of Foreign Languages. This will enable the Laboratory School to enlarge its offerings as additional years are included. An Ap- plication Clinic for Seniors proved profit- able in preparation for approaches towards positions. The climax of activities came on April 20 when John W. Studebaker, United States Commissioner of Education was the principal speaker at a conference consider- ing the Curriculum of the Secondary Schools. The Elcmentarv Department contains young men and women who enter college to make a study of education from kinder- garten through the first six years. The en- rollment for 1939 40 numbered three hun- dred sixty-six. The first two years are planned to afford a broad culture in subject matter as well as growth in character. The last two years provide for a continuance of this broad culture while working toward the devel- opment of educational techniques. Observation of pupils and demonstra- tion lessons of various units orient the stu- dents into teaching problems very early in their courses. Student teaching under su- pervision of teachers prepared for this work is required in the senior year. At the conclusion of four vears ' preparation, a B.S. degree is granted to those who have qualified. Social life, both formal and informal, is carefully planned so that the students may enjoy participation in civic and social affairs of their communities. After four years these students seek posi- tions in the schools of Pennsylvania. The placement percentage is gratifyingly high. 23 Mathematics Mahachek, Htad of Dipurtmrnr; Prugh; Schncll To provide well-trained teachers for the elementary and secondary schools of Pennsylvania, the Mathematics De- partment offers courses in pure mathe- matics and in techniques of teaching mathematics for practical and cultural uses. English Eglestonj Macdonald, Knowles; Norton, Acting Head of Dtpartmint; Wallace; Jones; Perkins; Sprowles The widest service of the English Department is the improvement of the language of the entire college. Other departmental goals are the careful selection and thorough preparation of majors and minors. Physical Education Seated: Timmons; Hamblen; Fleck; Miller, Htad of De- partment Standing: Prugh; Ellenberger; Bowles A comprehensive range of activities is provided in the Physical Education Department to meet individual needs. Stress is placed on teaching habits, attitudes, and knowledge pertaining to individual and community health. Geography Zink; Davis, Head of Department; Boyts To develop in the minds of pros- pective teachers a vision of a day when folks shall understand one another is a major aim of the Geography Department. 24 Scioice Smytlie, Hud of Dipjrttmnt: Tracy; Enimert; Sollberger; Dimit: lanis The program of the Science Depart- ment has been owi: of expansion, with two new facult - meinhers, a physicist and a chemist, an J inclusion ot phvsics, hioloij -, and ori anic cliemis- trv laboratories.

It is this feature which dis- tinguishes the teachers ' colleges from other non-professional schools. Social Studies Heiges; Bclden; W ' hitiiiyre, Head of Dcpartrnriit: Johnson The Social Studies Department strives to prepare teachers who will give pupils skills, appreciations, and interests required for living effectively in a society of increasing interdepend- ence and to promote co-operation.

Four years ago registra- tion line was a new phase in their young lives; todav it is a routine matter. During their second year, it was the delight of the sophomores to dictate to the incoming freshmen. Last year those same people looked forward to student teaching and grad- uation. Now that that time is here they do as seniors have done for years — they recall the social highlights of their Indiana stay. Perhaps some pre- fer to think of classes; others carry away memories of lovely friendships; a favored few take with them cher- ished honors. The class has grown smaller since this group came to Indiana. Many have secured positions, some have been married, and some have decided upon other careers. Much credit must be extended to those people who have served as officers of this class. Those people who have guided the group through the present year are Warren Davis, President; Margaret Ellen Carnahan, Vice-President; Robert Killen, Secre- tary; Earl Stockdale, Treasurer; Stew- art Johnston, Ross Adams, Dan Rem ley, and Vern Aldcrson, Student Coun- cil Representatives; and Harold L. Camp, Adviser. The 1938-1939 officers were Vern Alderson, President; Dan Remley, Vice-President; Warren Davis, Secre- tary; and Robert Lynch, Treasurer. The previous vear Joseph Sariscak was President; Lois Dickinson, Vice-Presi- dent; Bill Shick, Secretary; and Theo- 28 (.lore I. ink. Treasurer. When toJa ' s sophisticates came here as treshmcn, thcv choscjack lai;an, IVesideiit; Dan Rcmlcv, Vice-President; Warren Da- vis, Secretary; and Glenn Blubaugh, Treasurer. The most important annual class events have been the proms. The freshies donned formal attire on Febru- ary 20, 1937, to dance ro the music ot Noel Townsend. jolinnv Mac fur- nished the swini; and swav tunes for the Sophomore Prom on January 4, 1938. In the junior year, tuxes twirled trailing gowns to the melodies of Will Click. To the music of Johnny Mac, the seniors danced through their last soft-light and full-dress occasion on November 4. The seniors first appeared in caps and gowns at Swing-Out. The gradu- ating students marched in double line to their seats to watch the program. With the approach of Senior Week those who are graduating add event- ful occasions to their already large store. On Senior Day comes the fun and frolic picnic held at the School Lodge. At the Commencement exer- cises parents and friends see an array of academic gowns, a presentation of diplomas and hear a challenging ad- dress to the seniors. Baccalaureate Service is durintr these last few days of Senior Week. The class of 1940 has the honor of being the first to have the Senior Week exercises in the new auditorium. As students conclude their college careers there is always a sense of sorrow and regret. However, even greater, there is one of triumph for a task well done and a hope for further success.

A brief scrutiny of office statistics reveals much that is interest- ing concerning the composition of the Class of 1941. Of the two hundred ninety-four juniors the Elementary Department with eighty persons or twenty-seven per cent has the largest number. Twenty-four per cent of he class is included in the seventy- vo students of the Business Educa on Department. Next in order comes the Secondary Education group which has eighteen per cent or fifty-two persons. The other three special departments: Home Economics, with forty-five girls making up fifteen per cent; Music, with eleven per cent or thirty students; and Art, five per cent or fifteen stu- dents, complete the membership. 48 MM )l m yM ' -4|-VM- First raw: Ackcrman, Smith, Ruch, MacDoiKilii, Conrad, George, Hciman, Adams, Folick, Nicksick, Tcrchila, Bond, Brumbaugh, J.imcs, kkcs, Hackcnsmiih, Nocarcschi, Wean, Tuhovak, Hysong, Ramscll, Gosncll, Ebv, Miller, Francis X«o« rou.

This greater acceptance of adult responsi- b ilities must needs bring about an informality of class atmosphere and a more intimate contact with faculty members which are in themselves beneficial. Being nearer to the actual student teaching situation results in m( : interested, intelligent observa- tir and, opportunity for assistance in ne classroom. Another change is in the attitude of respect in awarding major positions. Joy Mahachek is sponsor and ad- viser. Officers for the past year were Raymond Johnston, President; Dor- othy Beale, ' ice-Presidcnt; Charlotte Stidham, Secretary; and James McKee Treasurer. The most important event of the year was the junior Prom which was held on April 6. Recreation Hall had been beautifully and artistically dec- orated for Kay Lively and his Orches- tra furnished the music. twccn dances and at intermission re- freshments of punch and cakes were served. Both the enthusiastic support of the entire Junior Class and the work of the committees helped to make the prom a success. The committees were headed by the class officers and made up of members from every department in the college. Their personnel was as follows: decoration, Esau Moto- vich, chairman, Esther Caldwell, Sally Holben, Fleming Moodv, Joseph Shu- ster, John Long; music, James McKee, chairman, Charlotte Litsinger, Elmer Wareham; program, Rav Johnston, chairman, Louise Anderson, Sarah Caldwell; invitation, Charlotte Stid- ham, chairman, Frances Mountsier, Harry Grandinett; and refreshment, Dorothy Beale, chairman, Thelma Campbell, and Betty Harris. 49 Sophomore Class Perhlio, Cassell, Frischmann, OToole CLASS OFFICERS Presidmt Anthony Perfilio Vic:-President James OToole Secretary Marjorie Cassell Treasurer Donald Frischmann Student Council Representat ves James Hess Glenn Davis A teniate Elmer Nicklas In the first semester of its freshman year, the Class of 1942, with L. H. Schnell, its adviser, met for the pur- pose of becoming organized. It se- lected a nominating committee with a representative from each depart- ment. These committee members drew up a slate from which the group elected Glenn Davis, President; Ralph Wisor, Vice-President; Helen Smith, Secretary; and Anthony Perfilio, Treasurer. After electing the class officers, the group chose Mary Ander- son and James Hess as Student Coun- cil representatives. The year ' s social highlight was the Freshman Prom. F irst row.

While some fam- iliar faces were missing, there were new members in the class. No longer green, inexperienced frosh, their shy- ness was being replaced by self-assur- ance and confidence. They had earned a niche, scholastically and extra-cur- ricularly. As upperclassmen they looked somewhat condescendingly on those who were their successors. With memories of the previous year still, it was difficult to keep from in- stituting customs the lirst day. After waiting for several weeks, customs were put into effect. The Tribunal, consisting of Orest Zorena, Craig Swauger, Eugene DeMatt, Frank Evanko, and Samuel Hogue, was given the power to enforce the rules and to act as a jury to try offenders. For the first time, women were also compelled to adhere to customs regu- lations. Officers for this year were Anthony Perhlio, President; James O ' Toole, Vice-President; Marjorie Cassell, Sec- retary; Donald Frischmann, Treas- urer; Glenn Davis, James Hess, and Ralph Wisor, Student Council repre- sentatives. Later Elmer John Nicklas replaced Ralph Wisor, who withdrew from school. With a year ' s experience in college, the committees were better able to prepare for their annual formal dance. The Sophomore Prom was held on December 19, 1939, in Recreation Hall under the supervision of the class officers and the following committee heads. Phyllis Wagner, reception; Robert Swanson, decoration; Roberta Mowry, refreshments; Glenn Davis, music; Vivian Sinclair, programs; Helen Smith, invitations; John Metz- ler, house; Alvin Munn and Dan Shearin, publicitv; and Francis Camp- bell, introductions. One hundred and sixty-five couples, class members and guests, attended. Chic Farrell and his orchestra pro- vided the music for the event to which Drummer-Bov Jimmic Rio added much for both dancers and onlookers with his drumming. Dexterously placed ferns and palms and subdued indirect red and blue lights created an effective background. New plans based on knowledge and experiences gained thus far are being formulated for the junior year. Under the supervision of the class officers and sponsors, the class is determined to execute well its plans. Thus it hopes to proceed on the foundation alreadv built, and somehow add pres- tige to I.S.T.C. 51 Raab, Santangclo, Scott, Harklcroad CLASS OFFICERS President . .

Its first taste of a college social function came with the Freshman Party, September 13, in Recreation Hall, when the freshmen became acquainted with one another and the faculty. They soon became a recognized organization on campus — recognized in that traditional fresh- man customs, for girls as well as boys, were inflicted. This was the first that customs for srirls were introduced officially.

Under the direction of Orval Kipp, adviser of the group, the class discussed the election of officers and chose a nomi- nating committee representing each department. This committee drew up a slate and at a later meeting presented each candidate to the class. In addi- tion to electing class officers, the group chose Dolly Allen and Richard Diehl as Student Council representa- tives. The class was now readv to assume responsibilities of college freshmen. Activities ot the year reached their climax on Saturday, February 17 with the Freshman Prom. Recreation Hall was beautifully and originally dec- orated with huge balloons suspended from the ceiling in grape formation. Chic Farrell and his orchestra met with wide approval. Betty Jane Kremer, a freshman, staged a floor show with her talented group of dancers.

Smooth dance music supplied by Chic Farrell and his orchestra was the feature of the evening. Drummer-boy Jimmie Rio provided an interesting show for both the dancers and the on- lookers through his distinctive drum- ming technique. Carefully placed ferns and palms throughout the ball- room. Recreation Hall, created an at- mosphere of distinction. Subdued lighting effects obtained by using red and blue indirect lights made a pleasant background. The class officers and the committee heads including Anthony Perhlio, President; James O ' Toole, Vice-Presi- dent; Marjorie Cassell, Secretary; Donald Frischmann, Treasurer; Phyllis Wagner, reception; Robert Swanson, decorations; Roberta Mowry, refreshments; Glenn Davis, music; Vivian Sinclair, programs; Helen Smith, invitations; John Metz- ler, house; Alvin Munn, publicity; and Francis Campbell, introductions, were guests of Dr. and Mrs. King at a buffet luncheon in their apartment during intermission. To these people and to the co-operation of the entire class must be accredited much of the success of this enjoyable occasion. Chic Farrell swings out for the Sophomores. 66 0x4; Invitation to the Senior Ball On November 4, seniors and tlieir guests attended the last formal dance of the Qass of 1940, the Senior i all. Recreation Hall was beautifully deco- rated and colorfiill - lighted for rhis event. johnnv Mac and his orchestra fur- nished popular swing for the eve- ning ' s dancing. This was the second time this class has danced to the music of Johnny Mac at a prom, hav- ing had him for its Sophomore Prom January 4, 1938. Committees worked for weeks pre- paring for this memorable dance. Thev were appointed bv Warren Davis, class president, and consisted largely of class officers. During intermission Dr. and Mrs. King entertained the class officers and faculty in their appartment where a delicious buffet luncheon was served. The Senior Ball is alwavs one of the most delightful and important occa- dions of any school vear. The com- plete success of this year ' s Ball can b. ' largelv attributed to the co-opera- tion and efficiency of the committees in charge. Seniors will remember rhis event as on e of the reallv outstanding social functions not mereh ' of this particular year bur of their iour-year college career.

In keeping with the holiday season, a scent of pine per- meating the atmosphere, each of the four corners sheltered a candle-lighted Christmas tree; the effect was one of an inviting glow of joy and ecstasy. A new idea, having lunch served during intermission, yielded favorable comments from everybody. With this plan, the girls were able to remain under cover instead of facing the necessity of wading snow in search of a restaurant. Just that relaxation plus appeasing one ' s appetite with dainty sandwiches, coffee, and mints broke the monotony of dancing, and rather seemed to tie a closer bond of friend- ship between the different groups. In spite of roads, responsible for considerable delay of Baron Elliot and his orchestra, melodious tunes kept the feet tapping. Swing, jive, waltzes — even a dash of novelty songs had their respective places on the program . At two o ' clock the chimes pealed out the finale to this happiest of mid- winter events. Dancing to the music of Baron Elliot. 68 J[?i Invitation to the Interfraternity Ball Fcaturint; the popular rhythms of Fran Eichlcr ' s eleven-piece N.B.C. or- chestra, the Intcrhatcrnity Ball was held Wed nesday evening, November 22, in Recreation Hall. The fraternities oiler this social fea- ture each vear the night Thanksgiving vacation begins. It is recognized as one of the main social functions of the season and is eagerly anticipated by every fraternirv man. Fran Eichler ' s band proved to be one of the best-liked ever to play on the Indiana campus. It has been fea- tured at such well-known night spots as the Nixon Cafe; Kenny wood; West ' iew; Westwood Supper Club, Rich- mond, Virginia; Mission Inn; Show- boat; and also at the Grove City Col- lege Homecoming dance. Programs were printed in the form of a scroll emploving the colors of the three fra- ternities. All lettering, done by hand, was in Old English and added a defi- nite distinctiveness to the programs. The main decoration of Recreation Hall consisted of a large arch bearing the insignias and symbols of the fra- ternities. The orchestra was this year placed in a corner of the Hall rather than in one of the arches.

Its membership, consist- ing of four representatives from the senior class, four from the junior, three from the sophomore, two from the freshman, a representative of the Resident Women ' s Student League, and a representative of the Men ' s Student League, is representative of the entire student body. The purpose is to promote in every wav the best interests of the State Teachers College, Indiana, Pennsylvania; to regulate matters of student conduct which do not fall under the jurisdiction of the faculty, together with such other business as may be referred to it bv students or faculty; to provide a more perfect organization which will main- tain the ideals of the College; to constitute a medium for the expression of initiative and the exercise of judgment in the management of student affairs; to aid in the maintenance of good order in the college com- munitv. This year members attended the conference of the Association of the State Teachers Colleges of Pennsvlvania held at Lock Haven. The theme, Democratic Living Through Student-Faculty Co-operation, was in line with the purpose of the Association which is to promote the development of more democratic student governments in the State Teachers Colleges. Indiana ' s delegates had the opportunity of becom- ing acquainted with the functions and problems of the councils of the other Teachers Colleges bv means of panel discussions and group as- semblies. The guest speaker was Dr. Suhrie of New York University. Next year Indiana will be the host to the Association. 72 SraitJ: Hughes, Kimball, Scillwagon, Hess, Dichl, Allen, Johnston StanJinf,: Whitmyre, File, Woodring, Walsh, Mc- Grew, Heiges, Remlcy, Davis, Nicklas, Smith, Startzcll, Johnson Student Qo-operati ' ve Association The Student Co-operative Association, activity-governing bcdv of the school, not only has delegated authority from students and admini- stration to carry on necessary work, but also has means to enforce its policies and regulations. In other words, it controls the purse of most extracurricular activities. Through the collection of student activity fees, bookroom profits, and other sources of revenue, this body man- ages and iinanccs conferences, lectures, intramural sports, the book- room, the Ouk, the Pcnn, and the Saturday-night dances. The Co- operative furnished money for delegations to the Northeastern States Conference, the Intercollegiate Conference on Government, and the International Relations Club Conference. It assumed the duty of run- ning a school bank. The big item in the twenty-seven-thousand- dollar budget is the athletic program, increased by two thousand dol- lars this year. No better administrative training ground can be found than this organization. This also emphasizes the need of a continuity in mem- bership. The far-seeing student body returns many familiar faces each year. Never a radical group, it is willing to meet the intelligent opin- ion of the school. While the students pav four dollars less each vear than in any other state teachers ' college, many working with this body believe the Indiana Co-operative carries on the most varied and justifiable pro- gram in the state. To look at the work of the Student Co-operative Association is to see that its importance and need is steadily increasing. The officers this year were President, Stewart Johnston; Vice-Presi- dent, Glenn Davis; Secretary, Helen Stillwagon; and Treasurer, Mr. Woodring.

WOMEN ' S RESIDENT LEAGUE MEN ' S RESIDENT LEAGUE To promote socialization and co- operation with faculty and admini- stration, hoarding women are organ- ized as the Resident Women ' s League. Work is conducted by the League Council, composed of officers elected bv all women, the presidents of each unit group, and the dean of women. At council meetings problems are dis- cussed, action is taken, and decisions are presented at hall meetings. The Advisory Board, composed of representatives of each class, the presi- dent of the League, and faculty mem- bers, acts upon recommendations of women students, at the request of the League Council deals with infractions of rules, and proposes matters for League consideration. This year the Advisory Board decided rules for September customs. The League also sponsors a party for freshman girls at the beginning of every school year. The Men ' s Student League, part of the student government plan at In- diana, was formed several years ago as an organization that, representing all the men in college, would meet and decide upon policies for those matters affecting men students as a whole. The supervision of the freshman in- itiations is part of the work of the League. Authority for the enforce- ment of these customs is given bv the League to the Sophomore Tribunal consisting of five men chosen from the Sophomore Class. Walter M. Whitmyre, Dean of Men, is the chairman of the Men ' s Student League in which each class has two representatives. This vear these were Charles Reamer and Stewart Johnston, seniors; Harrv Smith and Reed McMinn, juniors; John Freed and Francis Campbell, sophomores; and John Ritter and Willard Nosal, fresh- men. 74 Tap, ic cr .- Jolinston, Fair, Smith Standing: Graham Bottom: Even in snow, homeward o.

WOMEN ' S NON-RESIDENT LEAGUE Because of varied problems the Non- Resident Studcnrs ' League separated this year into a men ' s and a women ' s organization. Every woman student not staying on campus automatically becomes a member of the Non-Resi- dent Women ' s League. Every month the League held an informal tea in the lounge or in the Activities Cottage, having programs of dramatic skits and music. Two major events were the annual fall out- ing and a leap year party at which the Women ' s League joined the Men ' s League for a get-together at the College Lodge. The officers for the first semester were Jean Wean, President, Betty Smith, Vice-President; and Betty Jean Johnston, Secretary-Treasurer. The second se mester officers were Roberta Fair, President; Mildred Graham, Vice-President; and Betty Jean Johns- ton, Secretary-Treasurer. MEN ' S NON-RESiDENT LEAGUE During the second semester of last year a long-needed league for com- muting men was formed under tem- porary officers. They were as follows : President, Budd Wolfe; Vice-Presi- dent, William Donofsky; Secretary- Treasurer, Reed Calhoun. In October of this year a permanent organization was established. The life of commuting men is more restricted than that of other groups. The primary purpose, then, of this organization is to inspire friendship, good-will, and co-operation among the men. It is hoped that all com- muters will beneiit by having parties such as were enjoyed during the past year. Finally, with malice toward none, this group greatly desires to gain a place among the student organ- izations of this institution to which one-half the total number of its men commute. 75 Zorena, DeMatc, Evanko, Swauger, Hogue MEMBERS Zorena DeMatt Evanko Swauger Hogue .• fir -- ' i. Bend over, Frosh ' Sophomore Tribunal The Student Tribunal deals with the regulation and enforcement of freshman customs. Appointed bv the Men ' s Student League, this body is composed of hve men from the Sophomore Class. The Tribunal is held responsible for the proper administration of these customs, acting upon all infringements and violations. The underlying thought of this supervision is to introduce the new men students to the customs and traditions of the college. Under the regulations supplied by the Tribunal and approved by the Men ' s Stu- dent League the entering students are afforded the opportunity of acquainting themselves not only with the upperclassmen but also with the assemblies, vespers, dances, and athletic contests which are so much a part of school activity. The rules set up by the Tribunal cover such things as attendance at assemblies, vespers, and athletic contests; participation in dances; neat- ness in dress; respect to upperclassmen; familiarization with college regulations; and a general survey of everyday college activities. Red dinks, white socks, and red bow ties provide a means of recognizing freshman men. To acquaint upperclassmen with the freshmen, during the hrst week of customs each freshman wore a large placard bearing his name and home town. In addition, before all home football games the frosh were compelled to carry signs with slogans intended to in- spire the players. Dean W. M. Whitmyre acted as adviser to the Tribunal, while Orval Kipp served as intermediarv between the Tribunal and the fresh- man men. Eugene DeMatt acted as chairman of the Tribunal. 76 Penn Staff Meeting : There will he an important meeting of the Petm staff Wednesday afternoon at 4:10 in Room 30, Leonard Hall . . .

This year the Society has given its members six major features. ' ' Our Town and the spring play were productions by college students. Among the guest artists were the Jitney Players, who presented scenes from ten great American plays, caricaturing between acts the song hits of the period. Helen Howe, monologist, gave a skit called Wash- ington — All Change, a satire on social and political life in Washington, D.C. Miriam Marmein, dancer, appeared in elabo- rate costumes and portrayed characters through the medium of her art. The Society also sponsored amateur one-act plays to give a beginning experience to many who might never otherwise hnd their opportunity. The organization is named m memory of Jane E. Leonard who, as Preceptress of the College, engaged actively in bringing worthy and interesting dramatic entertainment to Indiana. The officers this year were William Reinish, President; William King, Treasurer; Betty Kane, Financial Secretary; and Alvin Munn, Publicity Manager. The organization is sponsored by Edna Lee Sprowls. 1 ggj 2 OFFICERS King, Kane, Munn, Reinish, Sprowls 78 Top eft: Miriam Marmcim, Leonard Literary s dancer of the year Bottom left: Eddie Everett as the Stage Manager of Our Town, a Leonard Literary student production.

Club activities included discussions; a church dinner; a Back.vards and a Leap Year party; and a church service with Dr. Dimit, speaker, and the Lvric Choir. First semester officers were President, Robert Sliker; Vice-President, Helen Randall; Secretary- Treasurer, Dorcas Fick; and Chaplain, Robert Swanson. Second semester officers were President, Doris Fick; Vice-President, Eileen Quinn; Secretary- Treasurer, Ronald Bond and Robert Swanson; and Chaplain, Carolyn Arnold. Lola Beelar is facultv sponsor of the club. NEWMAN CLUB The Newman Club, with an enrollment of one hundred and twenty members, is composed of Catholic students and teachers. The annual fall outing at the lodge acquainted new students with the old members of the club. Several communion-breakfasts led the group to vari- ous relit ious and educational discussions. To cli- max the season, a formal dinner-dance was staged at the Country Club on April 16. Officers of the organization are Anthony Perhlio, President; Mary Thomas, Vice-President; Enis Gan- dolph, Treasurer; Eileen Feeney, Assistant Treas- urer; George i ' ko, Recording Secretary; Delores Quinn, Con -ding Secretary; and Donald Ham- mer, Histoi an. 80 Y.

The Young Women ' s Chr- ' stian Associa- tion participated in several Vesper serv- ices; the Y.W. C.A. also sponsored the Candlelight and White Gift services and the Monday Morning Watch held at seven o ' clock. Social activities began with the Big and Little Sister Party. After this came the outing at the Lodge. The teas were well attended. A relatively new program of co-opera- tion with the Y.M.C.A. was carried out in social and religious activities. The Y.M. C.A. was invited to participate in the Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Easter serv- ices, one of the monthly meetings, a Ca-f-ol Sing before the Christmas holidays, and a Good Fellowship Tea Dance in January. Y. M. C. A. The Young Men ' s Christian Association, an organization of the men of the college designed to correlate religion with college life, maintained as its theme during the year character development, religious phi- losophy, and rile progression of moral standards. Throughout the hrst semester, during which time Robert Johnson served as act- ing president and Donald Frischmann as secretary-treasurer, several discussions on ways of bettering the organization were held. In addition, much interest was shown in the topic Influences Other Than G yd That Control Our Lives. The biggest social event of the lirst semester was the first annual steak fry held at the college lodge, which was attended b nearly every fellow on campus Election of officers was held at the beginning of the second semester, at which time the following men were elected: President, Robert Sliker; ' ice-President, Frank Alcamo; Secretary, Donald Frisch- mann; Treasurer, George Curley; and Chaplain, Wilber Searle. During the second semester the delega- tion committee was very active in taking charge of various church services. The fellows who composed the group made trips to the Old Methodist Church near Plumville, Greensburg Methodist Church, and they also had charge of a Sunday evening vesper service. The plav, The Private Secretary, sponsored by the Y on February 28 and March 4, proved to be one of the most interesting productions of the college year.

The repertoire of the orchestra includes the master works of classic, romantic, and modern composers. The orchestra contributes to the cultural life of the college and com- munity by public recitals and radio broadcasts. Students with or- chestral experience are encouraged to apply for membership in this organization. The orchestra serves not only as a laboratory for sur- veying materials for senior high-school and college performance but also as a clinical organization for the music educators in the service area. The Men ' s Glee Club, under the direction of Mary H. Muldowney, is open to men in all departments of the college who enjoy singing. This organization, while aiming to afford personal enjoyment to its members through their participation in ensemble singing, contributes greatly to college life by appearing publicly on and off the campus at concerts and assemblies. Men ' s Glee Club 84 The Lvric Choir, Jircct(.i.l h James Rcmlcv, is open to women in .ill Jepart- nieiirs other than the Music luliicai ion Depiirtmeiit, Tiiis i;roup appears in con- certs on and ofi campus.

Lyric Choir Vesper Choir Concert Band 85 MARCHING BAND The Marching Band, under the di- rection of Irving Cheyettc, has grown by leaps and bounds during the past few years until this year it boasts a membership of seventy-two men. In this organization which is open to all Indiana men, every depart- ment of the college was represented this year in its marching unit. A combination of West Point gray trimmed with red makes the smart uniforms especially attractive. To fur- ther set off the uniforms is a cadet cap with a jaunty red plume which adds to the spirit and to the smartness of the organization. The Marching Band possesses one of the tallest drum majors in the coun try, Robert Sliker, who stands six feet, five inches; he is clearly visible to every mem- ber of the Marching Band. This year the band participated in playing at four home football games, all of these were preceded by a parade through the town which made spirits gayer and hopes run high. In addition, a lively musical program was given at the Manos Theatre for the Col- lege rallv night before Home- coming. These pep meetings are attended by a majority of m the college students. ' The Marching Band assists at patriotic programs held in the community. Another im- portant function is its value in teaching students in the Music Education Department the technique of handling a man- euvering band on the football field. Maneuvers for field work included the formation of let- ters and many intricate de- signs. The College can look for- ward to an increasing number of students in this unit. 86 College Publications The Publications Committee, Dr. Zink, chair- man, Mrs. Ei leston, Miss Knowles, Mr. Jones, Mr. Kipp, Mr. Schnell, and Mr. File, approves printed material issued at collei e, including the Fenn, the 0, k, handbooks, bulletins, and depart- mental publications. During the past vear four bulletins were published: a professional one in August, a Music Department publication in Nov- ember, the college catalogue in February, and the summer catalogue in Mav; there has been pre- pared a view book containing one hundred and iiftv pictures. In the past, the Publications Committee has chosen editors and business managers, but it is hoped that this choice will be made by students with facultv guidance. A system to make this function has been worked out bv the Committee on Participation in College Organizations headed by Mr. Schnell and consisting of Miss Kimball, E)r.

It has tried to change the yearbook not only in size but also in the presentation and appearance of the annual ' s contents. At the same time it has thought it important that the Oak preserve the traditions of the College. One might strike a comparison of the yearbook ' s changes with those of the College. There is the ideal of improvement and expansion together ith the desire to continue that intangible something that is as much Indiana as the build- ings themselves. The Staff has t)rked cnx-lesslv to make these innovations possible It began with great plans, altered bv such realistic reminders as linances and practical printing and engraving problems. Eventually the Staff hopes that some system will be devised whereby pvramiding ami apprentic- ing of staff members may work more practicallv and wherebv a more demo- cratic means is instituted for the elec- tion of those staff members.

Some seventeen hundred copies are printed each week. This number is necessary to cover a circulation consisting of the students at the college, secondary schools in the service area, and a num- ber of teacher training colleges and liberal arts schools. Appearing on S a t u r d a - mornings, the Penn endeavors to give an accurate account of the happenings of the current week and a preview of the coming events at the college. The chief purpose of the Penn is to reflect the activities and opinions of the students now attending the college. As a student publication, both the actual work and the forming of policv are handled bv the students with the advice of the facultv sponsor. Not only does the Penn act as a news organ covering the activities of the student body, it also serves as a training ground for those of our stu- dents who are interested in journal- istic endeavors. The editor-in-chief is chosen by a publications committee composed of faculty and student representatives. He is selected on the basis of ability and experience in journalistic work. The editor chooses his own staff, and much of the work devolves upon those whom he chooses, abilirv and experi- ence largely constituting the basis of choice. John Paulisick and Walter Wineman, both seniors in the Second- ary Education Department, were chosen by the publications committee to serve the first and second semesters respectively. Faculty advisers were Ruth Knowles, editorial adviser, Clin- ton File, financial adviser, and Mabel Shouse, tvping adviser. 91 Norah E. Zink Lcrov H. Schnell QolU e liidiUtUi Quarterly the College publishes The Teachers College Bulletin. These bulle- tins are of two types: (1) the catalog numbers carrying information con- cerning the College, (2) the profession- al numbers constaining educational matters. The former are in demand by in-coming students; the latter are dis- tributed to superintendents, princi- pals, and teachers. The February issue is the announce- ment of the summer sessions. Special features of the summer school, such as new courses, lectures and musical programs, campus recreational activi- ties, ex ' cursions and held trips are described. In May the regular catalog is published. This bulletin presents detailed information concerning the location and history of the school, buildings, fees, method of registering, scholastic requirements, certification, and the courses to be offered the fol- lowing year. The professional bulle- tins are published in August and November. Some numbers have been devoted to discussing an educational subject as it is related to all depart- ments in the school. Such an issue was the one which discusses Recent Trends in Teacher Education. The bulletin recently written by the Music Department is an example of the other type. At intervals other types of bulletins have replaced the professional num- bers, such as the forth-coming View Book and the Alumni Directory. Through pictures, the View Book shows activities at Indiana. The Alumni Directory gives information concerning most of Indiana ' s eleven thousand alumni, as well as their addresses. In addition to publishing a quarterly bulletin the college yearly produces the Freshman Handbook and depart- mental circulars. The former, spon- sored by the Student Co-operative As- sociation, contains information con- cerning the school setup and routine; the latter describes the work in each of the six different departments. 92 Home Economics Club: The date for the club meeting will be changed . . .

At the present time these students do their teaching in the Eastmont- Upper Yoder High School and Southmont High School. To bring this group of students more closely together the Johnstown Student Teachers Club is organized each semester. The main purpose is to develop professional interests and tg gain an insight into the progress of the educational world. Monthly meetings are held at Dr. Montgomery ' s house. Some- times these meetings are purely social, but usually some member gives a talk. Since the student membership in the organization changes completely each semester, activity is bound to differ depending upon the initiative of the officers and members of the club. When enough students were sent to Johnstown to make it pos- sible, a banquet was held in the Fort Stanwix Hotel. The critic teachers were invited, as well as some outside speaker. When the number of students assigned to Johnstown was reduced, the cost of holding these banquets became prohibitive. The program for the first semester of the current school year consisted of three meetings. At the September meeting, a very delightful lunch was served which was followed by the play- ing of games. In October an informal Halloween Party was held, and at the final meeting in January an interesting evening was spent in discussing the semester ' s work. Students who were in Johnstown the first semester were Ralph Kier, Paul Noel, Dean Marshall, Earl Stockdale, and Evan Williams. The second semester Fredericka Barnett, John Koban, Wil- liam Ghrist, and Ira Paul were in Johnstown. In spite of this small number it was decided to carry on the club. The future activity of this organization depends upon the number of mem- bers which it may have. 94 I ifii r„u.

There are no scheduled meetings, but each spring the club makes a trip in the school bus to some place of geographic and cultural interest. Last spring the club trip was to the New York World ' s Fair. Previous to departure, a committee of Travelers had made a detailed study of factors and features of geographic interest enroute. Each person was given a copy of this study as well as maps of Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and New York City. Dur- ing the journey the students had the opportunity to translate verbal materials and map symbols into reality. After negotiat- ing a traffic jam in the outskirts of Newark and crawling under the partiallv demolished Sixth Avenue L the bus arrived at the hotel at about seven-thirty p.m. Everyone went for a walk on Fifth Avenue and then to Times Square. The next morning the group ascended the tower of the Empire State Building to view the citv and then went to the fair. The management let everyone in at children ' s prices the first day. Unfortunately city sophistication was acquired so rapidlv bv the Travelers that on the following day their blase, world-weary demeanor caused the management to charge full prices. The group ranged the fair grounds from the Federal and State Buildings to the Aquacade and the parachute jump, acquiring simultaneously new experiences and weary feet. On the fourth day, after the group had spent the morning on a yacht trip around Manhattan Island, it boarded the bus for home. The clubs officers for this year have been Alice Moorhead, President; James Herron, Treasurer; Mrs. L. C. Davis, Chap- eron; Dr. Norah Zink, Assistant Chaperon; and L. C. Davis, Sponsor. Travel Club 95 Secondary Education Club The Secondary Education Club has made definite strides to the foreground in campus activity in the past year. With R. E. Heiges, the new head of the department, as sponsor, the follow- ing officers were elected for the 1939-40 school year: President, James McKee; Vice-President, Alma Lydick; Secretary, Esther Caldwell; and Treasurer, Walter Nosal. Other departments in the College, because of smaller enroll- ment, more unified certification, and a common purpose, have been able to organize with com para tivelv little effort. In the Secondary Education curriculum, due to the multitude of teach- ing goals present, it was necessary to subordinate the major fields to the more general purpose of teaching the secondary schools. One of the chief aims is the guidance of members to- wards the most suitable selection of major and minor fields of study from the standpoints of personal qualihcations and teacher placement. The method used was the organization of an advisory system on a departmental basis. Students have been assigned to advisers who are members of the teaching staff of their major field. Thus the advisee is assured the best pos- sible aid in schedule selections and teacher assistance. The club ' s social activity of the first semester was the Sadie Hawkins ' Hop, held in the junior high-school auditorium; old clothes, Skunk Hollow style, were the order of the evening. After dancing and plaving games, those present were treated to refreshments. This party has been acclaimed as a highlight of the school year. The department sponsored a conference in secondary educa- tion with the main theme being ' ' The Curriculum of the Second- ary Schools. Dr. John W. Studebaker, United States Commis- sioner of Education, addressed the conference on the subject of The New Curriculum in a New Age. Those who attended included alumni of Indiana and prominent administrators and teachers of western Pennsylvania. 96 In the spring of 1939 the Elcmcnrarv Club was formed, merging the Intermediate and Prigrind groups. The tollowing were ofBcers: President, Gwendolyn Griffith; Vice-President, Marie Mvers; Secretar -, Bettv Hartley; Treasurer, Lois Shaffer; Executive Council Mable Swanson, Nina Himes, Hazel George, Helen Maher, Patrick McCabe, and Harold Sinclair. The purpose of the club is to secure those intellectual, social, and professional advantages which make a well-rounded, in- tegrated personality. Under the leadership of Jane McGrath, [director, and Lillian McLean, Assistant Director, monthly meetings were held. The first meeting was an informal get-together in Leonard Hall where the group danced, plaved cards and games, and enjoyed movies shown by Dorothy Jean Herrholz, popular songs and refreshments. On October 24, a professional and business meet- ing was held. Mr. L. C. Davis at the third meeting showed the club pic- tures of his western geographic trip. At the January meeting Miss McGrath and Miss McLean gave suggestions for the club ' s development and discussed rat- ing cards and tenure. Scholarship and civic responsibility were stressed as essential to securing and retaining a position. At the formal tea dance in February spring flowers, palms and ferns, soft lights and music made Recreation Hall charming. Mrs. LeRoy King and Miss Florence Kimball presided at the tea tables. An interesting musical program was given. Games were played by those who preferred them to dancing. The club is grateful to Mr. Emmert for pictures he made. During the spring months other professional meetings were held, and a series of teas was given in the Activities Cottage. The year closed with a group picnic and a breakfast for the seniors at the Lodge. Elementary Club 97 Art Club The Art Club is composed of individuals accused of being on the odd side, and perhaps rightly so, for here individualism is encouraged within the bounds of propriety. This group is characterized by the traditional ability of art students to have fun. Trips to current art exhibits in Pittsburgh (with frenzied shopping on the side;, hikes and bus trips to the College Lodge, parties and dancing in the department enliven the hectic life of Indiana ' s reputed Bohemians. However, art clubbers are not the long-haired radicals that the popular conception would have them. The scholastic average of this group is high and a number are members of Kappa Delta Pi. The Art Department sponsors the Art Club and membership is open to all students and faculty. The club in turn sponsors the Tuesday Night Art Activities open to all members. Here all may pursue any phase of art of especial interest. An oppor- tunity is thus afforded for development of self-expression and association with people of artistic bent. The past year ' s program included a membership outing at the College Lodge with the freshmen entertaining the others. Later came a masquerade dance wherein was displayed ingenu- ity in costumes. In December the college bus rolled on its way to Pittsburgh, taking the club on two visits to the famous International Exhibition. Then again the College Lodge was the locale of a spaghetti dinner with various mishaps and ad- ventures thrown in. A skating party was scheduled for the second semester along with two trips to visit the exhibition of the Associated Artists at Carnegie Institute. The year was climaxed by the spring banquet at which the Jean R. McElhaney medal was presented to an outstanding senior. Officers were Margaret Artley, President; Willard Dominick, Vice-President; Margaret Mary Croup, Secretary; Barbara Watson, Treasurer; Esau Motovich, Publicity Chairman. 98 «.

The club sponsors a student recital-tea each month in the hall of the Department and each class within the group alternates as sponsor and performs the duties of host and hostess. The club this vear formed a Listening In group, meeting twice a week in the department and listening to recorded sym- phonic masterpieces under the direction of the president. The students come of their own free will from all departments. It is hoped the organization will continue to grow. The club sponsors bus trips to Johnstown and Pittsburgh to hear world-renowned artists. In January fortv-three members went to hear Josef Hofmann, soloist with the Pittsburgh Sym- phony Orchestra. The club brought to the college as guest artist on April 12 the eminent composer-conductor-pianist, Percy Grainger. It was a gala festival for the Music Depart- ment, for Mr. Grainger plaved the Grieg piano concerto with the orchestra and conducted the college choir and band in a program of his compositions. The student council of the Music Education Department this year consisted of Jeanne Gordon and Francis Patt of the fresh- man class, Frances Sharp and Elmer John Nicklas of the sopho- more class, Eleanor W ' hitacre and Alfred Jacques of the junior class, and John Taylor and Robert Johnson of the senior class. At the beginning of the first semester this group nominated officers. This group meets with the faculty to discuss problems. The council brings the student viewpoint to the faculty and the faculty viewpoint to the students. The club also contributed to Indiana ' s radio broadcasts. A series of music appreciation broadcasts were presented to edu- cate the audience musically as well as to give entertainment. The officers were President, James Sheaffer; Secretary, Ann Shank; and Treasurer, Norman O ' Hara. Music Educators ' Club 99 Chamber of Commerce The Chamber of Commerce was organized under the sponsor- ship of G. G. Hill in September, 1939, for the corresponding school year. Since each Business Education student automatic- ally becomes a member, each of the 407 people of the department are participants. Professional programs for this club are carried on through advisory groups. Some bring in outside speakers while others have shown moving pictures on topics of interest to students of business education. Early in the fall, the Chamber of Commerce sponsored the annual fall outing at the College Lodge, at which the freshmen became better acquainted with the students and faculty of the department. An interesting program of games and dramatic skits, dancing, and refreshments constituted the main attrac- tions. In December the organization entertained the orphans from the Willard Home and invited as guests the entire college. During the evening, each child received gifts through which the club hoped he would gain much jov and happiness. These gifts were purchased by the organization or donated bv the students. A party for club members occurred in earlv March. Soon after Easter vacation, the annual Commercial Tea Dance took place. Students sold tickets to anv person in the college, alumni, or to outside friends. Refreshments and spring decora- tions were both original and attractive. Various forms of en- tertainment, including both student and professional talent, dancing in Recreation Hall, and tea and music in the depart- ment drew many favorable comments. Activities closed in May with the annual farewell party for seniors. Officers were President, Joseph Shuster; First Vice-President, Donald Frischman; Second Vice-President, Anthony Perhlio; Corresponding Secretarv, Steve Bartol; Assistant Corresponding Secretary, Melba Stahl; Recording Secretary, Lucille Russell; Treasurer, Raymond Johnston; and Assistant Treasurer, Dor- othy Karabinus. These officers serve until November, 1940, when assistants elected in 1939 become the leaders. 100 New students and facult members were welcomed to the Home Economics Department at the September outing at the School Lodge. To facilitate the getting-acquainted process each upperclassman brought her little sister. Here Miss Helen Rose and Mrs. Thclma E. Lappen, new staff members, were intro- duced. The following month freshmen were initiated into the club with the impressive candlelight service. The Home Economics Conference, held during the morning of Homecominii Dav, was lartielv attended bv alumnae and friends of the college. Home economists from manv schools at this conference heard Mrs. Anna G. Green, Chief of Home Economics Education in Pennsylvania. The annual Freshman-Sophomore Banquet was held at the Indiana Country Club. The favors, centerpiece, and dance pro- grams were in keeping with the Thanksgiving season. That evening Dr. Sanders spoke to the girls on the subject Where Arc We Going in Home Economics? At the Christmas season the club dressed dolls and packed baskets for needy people. At the club ' s Christmas party an amusing scene from The Birds ' Christmas Carol was pre- sented by members directed by Sylva Wixson. Tempting odors of the May Day Breakfast brought members to this annual morning meeting. With the spring social activi- ties also came Junior-Senior Merry-Go. At the State Convention of Home Economists, at Phila- delphia in Mav, Indiana was represented bv several faculty members and students. Marion Wills of this facultv was a co- chairman of the Student Clubs Committee. Officers for the first semester were Winifred Eitnier, Presi- dent; Jeannette Hunter, Vice-President; Ruth Davis, Secretary; and Margaret Storey, Treasurer. The second semester officers, in the same order, have been Helen Horsky, Sara Caldwell, Elsie Beall, and Dorothy Beale. For this year A. Pauline Sanders was financial adviser of the club, and Esther H. Alden, sponsor.

Students and faculty members interested in the development of poetry and the reading of contemporary verse formed a permanent organization which met once a month to study. Gradually, the reading of poetry became the main activity. Realizing that the name was too long, the group changed it to the Robinson Club. At first Carrie Belle Parks Norton acted as sponsor, but for several years Ruth Knowles assumed the responsibilities until work called her away from this posi- tion. When Marjorie Gullan of London visited in the spring of 1937, a group interested in choral reading organized the present Robinson Reading Choir. The interest of this new group was at first a private one devoted to enjoying and appreciating poetry by reading it chorally, but as the choir became popular, public appearances were demanded. This year the choir per- formed at a vesper service and a junior high-school assembly. At the weekly meetings the choir studied, under the direction of Mrs. Norton, poems and ballads taken primarily from Miss Gullan ' s book, The Speech Choir ; however, it prepared special selections: W. H. Davies ' Leisure and John Mase- field ' s West Wind, two excellent poems for lengthy vowel sounds, and Markham ' s The Man With the Hoe, chosen purposely for the vesper program because of its religious and social significance. Usually the choir started rehearsals with counting-out rhvmes, nursery rhymes, and vowel vocalizations. Although William Rose Benet ' s Jesse James was not per- formed, it was the choir ' s favorite selection for relaxation and humor. Perhaps the greatest advancement of the choir was the addi- tion of male voices. Not only did these voices add power, but they helped break down the prejudice felt by many who con- sider poetry choirs absurd. 102 i ' fj fi .- Carpenter, Goldm.ui, RtcJ, Gosncll, Bniiibaugh, Perkins, Rose, Knowlcs St nJini,: Norton, Litzinger, Park, Stephenson, Macdonald, Hopkins, Glcbovich, Eglcston, Aten, Johnson, Stidham, Hcrndon, Sprowls, Hughes The American College Quill Cluh, a national organization formed twenty-hve years ago at Kansas University, encourages literary effort and criticism. It is not honorary; to retain mem- bership each person must contribute original work. To main- tain a balance between inexperience and maturity, each college group has active faculty members. Quill is non-secret and non-fraternal. Its nomenclature and ritual are based upon Anglo-Saxon culture. Admission is by original manuscript submitted anonymously. Ger Rune, the local chapter, was admitted to membership in 1930. Since then Ger has been one of the most active runes. Annuallv Ger publishes Scroll which voices the outpourings and protests of youth; this publication is widelv distributed on the Indiana campus. The national organ of Quill is Parchment which publishes manuscripts submitted by the fourteen runes. This opportunity is open to all undergraduates as well as to members of Quill. The magazine is intended to be truly representative of under- graduate writers throughout the nation. Last summer Reba N. Perkins, National High Scribe, and three members of Ger attended the national convocation held at Kansas State College, Manhattan, Kansas. Ur Rune, as hosts, presented several speakers, one of whom was Kirk Mechem, author of the play John Brown. Hamlin Garland, an honor- ary member, expressed his regret at being unable to attend. Dr. Perkins entertained the group at ther house this fall, at which time reports from the convocation were given. The founder of Quill, Dr. Hopkins of Kansas University, was present at the lirst initiation cf this year. A ritual, dignified and impressive, recently prepared by Dr. Hopkins, was used by him in conducting the ceremony held at Mrs. Macdonald ' s house. Officers for the vear were Paul Glebovich, Chancellor; Mrs. Helen F. Egleston, Vice-Chancellor; Charlotte Stidham, Scribe and Keeper-of-the-Parchments; and Evelvn Aten, Warden of the Purse.

Johnson International Relations Club The International Relations Club, orffanized under the aus- pices of the Carnegie Foundation for International Peace, with approximately eight hundred clubs in colleges and universities throughout the world, is nonpartisan group to give interested students an opportunity to discuss issues involved in interna- tional affairs. It is hoped that a better understanding will be established among nations through this consideration of mutual problems. In addition to the regular meetings, the club spon- sors open forums each month for all students and faculty mem- bers. This year, two of these forums were held in the weekly general assemblies. The subject of the hrst discussion was Should the United States Increase the Amount Set Aside for Old Age Assistance? John Paulisick and Ardell Haines argued pro and con. At the second, Should Congress Pass the Presi- dent ' s Defense Program? Tames McKee and Dean Marshall presented opposite viewpoints. The Student Co-operative Association made it possible to send four delegates, W. Ardell Haines, Dean Marshall, Stewart Johnston, Flovd Smith, and C. M. Johnson, to the Middle Atlantic I.R.C. Conference at New Jersey College for Women. This conference, in December, was composed of two hundred and forty-eight delegates representing fifty-two colleges and universities. The Indiana delegates took an active part in com- mittee discussions concerning such subjects as America ' s Foreign Policy — Isolation, Neutrality, or Co-operation, America ' s Foreign Policy in the Western Hemisphere, The Essential Elements of a World Society Directed Against War, and The Refugee Problem. The delegates were privileged to hear several internationally known lecturers. In the closing session, the chairmen of the various delegations voted to hold next vear ' s conference at Georgetown University, Washington, DC ' The club was under the leadership of President Dean Marshall, Vice-President Ruth Miller, Secretary Helen Maher, Assistant Secretary Alice Moorhead, Treasurer Phoebe Albert, and Sponsor Ethel A. Belden. 104 Winter Sports Club: Skiing and tobogganing at the College Lodge this afternoon . . . Atten- tion! Pep Meeting: There will be a Pep meeting in the gymnasium at 7:00 . . .

Under their jurisdiction come the arrangement of schedules; the selection of managers; the choice of cheerleaders and Indiana ' s Indian; andf the setting up of an award svstem. Policies relating to the general welfare of the athletes are of special consideration. Caring for injuries, select- ing first-aiders and trainers, and providing suitable medi- cal service are responsibilities of the board, which sees that physical examinations are given before a student engages in an athletic contest and that every precaution is taken to safeguard the players. The committee deals with the conduct of games as to suitable officials; courteous treatment of opponents, officials, and friends; seating arrangements; selling of refreshments; loud-speaker system; ushering; selling and collecting tickets; and the issuing of complimentary tickets. It advertises the games by issuing schedules, posters, official programs, newspaper releases, and by contribut- ing to national sporting guides, national collectors of sports information, and radio programs. This Committee gets all available professional help to enhance the coaching of each team and broaden the varsity program bv making it available to more students. 122 Rifle Club; Rifle Club will meet at 4:15 this eve- ning . . .

No matter how dull the game, the appearance of the cheerleaders makes the crowd gay, and thev cheer their team on to victory. Cheerleaders for the past season were Fred Craft, Leah- mon Cravener, Harry Grandinetti, and Jav Smith, head cheerleader. The varsity manager must be pre- pared to take criticisms, and to work without recognition when he offers his services. The honor of distributing the equip- ment to the athletes and the worry of collecting these articles is also very graciously bestowed upon the poor managers who work themselves to a sweat hustling around seeing that all is going well. The managers of the various sports for the past season were football, Lemon, McMinn, and Pear- son; basketball, Borland and Swan- son; tennis, Miller; baseball, Elko, Fetterman, and Paulisick.

Over fifty men turned out to seek positions on the squad. The coaching staff was bol- stered by the addition of Robert Timmons, former All-American end at Pitt, as line coach and assistant to head coach, George P. Miller. Earl Prugh continued as coach of the reserve squad. Coaches Miller and Timmons had the tough assign- ment of filling positions vacated by last year ' s seniors. The squad this year had a great group of fresh- men such as Fred Ruthko, Lee Brant, Vernell Harkleroad, Matthew Hohn, Fred Stokes, Bill Hauth, and Fred Gezich. Coach Miller announced an eight game schedule against an all State Teachers College lineup. Veterans back were Joe Sariscak, Bob Killen, Walter Nosal, Simon Cicero, Ted Grundy, and Charlie ZofFuto. The outlook for the season was far brighter at the onset of this year than it was last. Due to an injured back received last year, Svbinskv was to be forced to the sidelines for at least half of the season, while Albert Hovanec was unable to participate in the first few games be- cause of a broken arm. Three young freshmen, Harkleroad, Brant, and Ruthko seemed destined to be in the starting lineup. Come on, Indians, block that kick ' 128 The three weeks of practice and drill were climaxed when the In- dians travelled to Lock Haven to open the 1939 foorhall season atrainst an ever-threateninij team which the Indians had failed for many seasons to conquer. The Lock Haven team took the Indiana eleven into camp by the score of 7-0 durint a continuous downpour which added to the difH- culties of the lighter Indiana team. Indiana won the toss, elected to re- ceive, taking and fumbling the ball on their own forty-five. Lock Haven recovered and two plays later also fumbled this time with Indiana recovering. Two exchanges of kicks found Indiana with the ball on the opponent ' s thirty-four yard line. On three successive first downs the Indians took the ball into enemy territory to the four-yard line but lost the ball on downs. Two more exchanges of kicks and the Indians again had the ball on Lock Haven ' s forty-yard line, starting another drive which ended on Lock Haven ' s eighteen after two successive first downs. Out to avenge the previous Saturday ' s defeat the Indians rode rough-shod over a big Bloomsburg team to the tune of 33-0. Time after time Ted Grundy and Fred Ruthko ripped off large gains against the Bloomsburg line. Credit for the touch- downs went to Ruthko, Killen, Grundy, Stokes, and Nosal. Miller McElliocs Harklcroad Brant Schwing Hovanec Where to now, little man ' 129 S. Cicero Gezich Stokes Carter Killen Svhinsk The following Saturday the In- dians won their first home game against Edinboro 20-0. Early in the first half the Redskins were deep in Edinboro territory. Fred Ruthko plunged savagely off tackle for the first tally followed by Ted Grundy ' s kick making the score 7-0. Late in the first half Nosal ran 37 yards for a second tally with Ted Grundy once more converting to make the score 14-0. In the fourth quarter Grundy circled the end and went over for the final tally. Next came the celebration of the year, Home- coming Day, with Slippery Rock providing the competition and what competition it turned out to be, for the visitors scalped the home team 13-0 in a sea of mud. Although the Indians acquired more first downs than did the opponents, they lacked that scoring punch. It was in the lirst quarter that Johnny Kaufman hitting off his own right tackle broke through the Indiana forward wall and ran 37 yards to score for the Rockets. Kline ' s kick for the extra point was good, putting Slippery Rock in the lead 7-0. It was then that Denbow in the second period hitting off tackle went over for the final enemy score, making it 13-0. Indiana threatened only one time during the game, that being in the third quarter. The hrsf two are the toughest. 130 ' f l} ' f • The Indians defeated the State Champs, Manslield, 7-6 in tlie hard- est-fought battle of the year. The Indians scored the first touchdown in the first minute and six seconds of the opening period. In the mid- dle of the final period, Dowd lired a pass to Cunningham for the hosts ' lone tallv. The following Saturday Indiana entertained the undefeated and un- tied Clarion team who had high hopes of the State Championship. The best the visitors could do against the Indians was a 12-12 tie. Clarion ' s first tally came in the second period. A few minutes later Indiana had the ball on the Clarion 40. Schwing passed to Hohn for the first Indiana score.

Although the Indians did end up in hfth place in the State Teachers College Conference, which includes thirteen teams, they really had a successful season under the tutelage of the new head coach, Robert Timmons. Indiana opened the season on January 6 when it was defeated by St. Francis on the local floor by the score of 30 to 22. This game was featured by the brilliant play of three of the freshman stars, Brant, Duffy, and Hogg, who started their first season for Indiana in impressive style. Joe Sariscak, captain, contributed his usual excellent floorwork. On January 9 the Indians hit their stride when they smothered the Clarion invaders, 45 to 21. Brant held the honors as high scorer of the evening with 11 points while the very capable sophomore, Gene DeMatt, played a bang-up game, scoring 7 points. On January 13 the team played its first away game at California where it added another victory to its list when it eked out a 38-32 win. Hogg was high scorer with 10 points while Joe Sariscak and Bobby Killen played very impressive floor games. Playing their second away game on January 20, the Red and Slate continued its winning streak when they defeated Lock Haven, 38 to 34. Bobby Killen came through with 14 points. 132 Stated: Killcn, Schwing, DcMatt, Duffy, McNaughton. Santangcio J j« «i;.- Timmons, Sariscak, Brant, Costantino, Wallcirr, Ruthko, M. Citero When the Indians journeyed to St. Vincent, they were considered the underdogs, but Indiana returned home victorious, 44-43, after being forced to phiy two gruelling extra periods. Lee Brant was not onlv responsible for the winning points, btit he also gained credit for tying the game so as to necessitate an extra period. Edinboro broke the Indians ' winning streak w ' hen they defeated the Red and Slate at home by the rather small margin of 37 to 29. Duffy was top scorer with 10 points. The most important game of the season turned out to be with Slip- pery Rock on January 30. Before an amazed crowd the Indiana quintet outpointed the Rockets in an extra period game to win 44 to 41. Lee Brant again pulled the Indians through with his total of 16 points. The evenly distributed scoring throughout the game kept the spectators in a frenzy. This contest marked the second ext ra period game that the Indiana team had won. DcMatt makes a basket. 13 Killen Sariscak DcMatt Brant Walker On February 3, St. Francis a ain outclassed the Indians to become the only team to claim two victories over I.S.T.C. The boys received a real drubbing by the score of 41-28. When the Indians traveled to Slippery Rock, thev were unable to stop the Rockets de- spite their fine showing and lost a tough battle, 56 to 46. DeMatt with 14 points and Duffy with 12 points were the high men for Indiana. In a non-scheduled game, Indiana took the local Barclay Hardware team with ease as they ran up a 42 to 24 score. On February 20, Indiana won a very important game when they defeated Lock Haven to share, for the time being, the second place in the conference with Slippery Rock. DeMatt and Killen were high scorers of the contest, the Imal score being 42 to 28. The Indians lost a heart breaker to Edinboro when they were defeated 40 to 35- This was the second time in the season that Edinboro took an exciting game from the local tutors. Hogg was high man with 10 points. In an easy league melee Indiana upset the Clarion team on its own floor by the score of 50 to 39. Both freshman forwards, Duffv and Hogg, succeeded in gathering 17 and 11 points respectively. O.K.. Indians! Get going! 134 Indiana lost a tlirill-( icl c(.l barrlc to St. Vincent when rhc Red and Slate fell before the determined Saints, 37-33- Bobby Killen was tops with Larry Duffy also coming in for scoring honors. This game was sweet revenge to the boys of Sr. ' incent after their previous set-back bv Indiana. M. Cicero Hogg Under a heavy handicap Indians lost to Millersville, the Conference champions by a 45 to 39 score. Sam Costantino played his best game thus far for Indiana as he led the scoring with 15 points. The ever-steady DeMatt was the runner-up for honors as he ran up a total of 14 points. The last game of the season ended quite dis- astrously for Indiana when they took a lacing from the Bloomsburg cagers by a score of 71 to 34 for their worst beating of the year. The school is looking to a very successful season next year, and with DeMatt, Brant, Duffy, French, Hogg, Costantino, McNaughton, Cicero, and Schwing back under the able direction of Coach Timmons, this team will give its opponents several difficult evenings next year.

Ellenbcrger, Quinn, Caldwell Women ' s Athletic Association Miss Bowles, gym windov The Women ' s Athletic Association, of which all girls at Indiana automatically become members, has as ideals the pro- motion of interest and skill in various sports and the fostering of physical recreation a nd good fellowship. The Association has become an active group on campus, moving steadily forward in its program of furnishing guidance for girls in the art of suc- cessfully utilizing leisure time. The W.A.A, desires the co- operation and support of every girl in a whole-hearted attempt to attain a true realization of its aims and goals. Several principles responsible for the development of this progressive organization have been a decided opposition to all forms of athletics which exploit the play impulse and destroy human values; an unfavorable attitude toward the use of ath- letic games merely for exhibition or for the personal advantage of an individual or institution; a desire to lead others into joyous creative experiences; and a development of a well- rounded athletic program for advantageous use of all. This need of good, clean, wholesome athletic rivalry for the women resulted in a highly specialized intramural sports pro- gram directed by the Association Council. Tournaments spon- sored included field hockey, volleyball, basketball, archery, mushball, and tennis, the games being played in the gymnasium every Monday evening and Friday afternoon. Participation in the contest provided real opportunitv for those who never be- fore entered a meet to have a lot of fun as well as practical experience, in addition to permitting others to receive points in earning their varsity letter. 140 Women ' s Varsity V Invitation to nicnihcrship in thc Womcn ' s X ' arsitv I Cluh is extended to girls obtaining their varsitv letter by active participation in W. A. A. programs. Officers were Pauline Perry, Presi- dent; Jane Gerber, Vice-President; and Alta Battersby, Secretary-Treasurer. These leaders, with Jane Picking, Janet Rippman, and Enmia Ptahler, conducted a highly successful activ- ity program. An overnight hike to the Lodge the night before Homecoming festivities of October 21 and breakfast the next morning constituted the main activity of the first semester Alumnae mem- bers were entertained at a marsh- mallow-weiner roast. Each vear the Women ' s Athletic Association carries out a sports or play day. This year the ' arsity T joined the Women ' s Athletic Associa- tion Council in making it a success, stressing the real relationship between the two groups. Other activities included part spon- sorship of the Saturday Activity Nights in the Gymnasium, the sale of Indiana pennants, and the holding of various other parties. Thus the club fulfilled its three-fold purpose: to continue social contacts with all members; to further athletic programs; and to retain ideals and en- joyment in athletic participation. One may earn points toward mem- bership by participating in intra- mural activities or holding an athletic office. The standard for winning the I is 1000 points. The point svstem is as follows: Required physical activity: points awarded according to grades received A, 200 points; B, 150 points; and C, 100 points. Rippman Picking Rumbaugh Battcrshv Pfahlcr Csiszar Gcrbcr Hamblen Intramural sports: including tourn- ament competition and individual sports — winning team, 100 points; runner-up, 75 points; and partici- pation, 50 points.

Numerals are awarded for the first 200 points, a chevron for the four exceeding 200 points, followed by an I and membership in the Varsity I Club for 1000 points. 141 WINNING BASKETBALL TEAM WINNING FIELD HOCKEY TEAM WINTER SPORTS CLUBBERS WINNING VOLLEYBALL TEAM Field hockey, the initial girls ' in- tramural tournament of the term, is increasing yearly in the popularity among the women of the W.A.A. Many new players as well as the expe- rienced enter the games which offer them a lot of clean fun and friendly rivalry. By the cheers of the specta- tors one knows that they, too, enjoy the thrills and the spills of the game. Volleyball has always been a prom- inent game and a favorite one among the girls at Indiana. The W.A.A. tournament starts immediately upon the completion of held hockey. After a few weeks of practice sessions, the girls form into teams ready to start the hotly contested games. Although there exists an intense rivalry among the groups, volleyball affords an op- portunity for every girl to maintain high standards of sportsmanship as well as to enjoy much healthful exer- cise.

The direction and the supervision of intramural sports are placed in the hands of Mr. Paul H. Boyts. Assisting him are two senior managers and two assistant managers, chosen by the Athletics Committee. Each manager serves two semesters — one as an assistant and one as manager. Upon completion of his term he is given an intramural service award, the intramural jacket. The chief aims of the program as developed at Indiana are to teach and train students in athletics for after-school life; to develop habits of good sportsmanship and fair play; to ac- quire a knowledge of the rules and skills required to gain greater enjoyment in participation and observation; and to prepare stu- dents to organize and promote intramural sports in the public schools. To the three members of the senior class who have been most active in intramural athletics is presented the intramural jacket. This presentation is based on the point system. Any senior having more than 250 points is eligible to take the competitive examination on all four major sports — basketball, football, volleyball, and soft ball— that are presented by the intramural department. The three highest scorers on these tests are awarded jackets. To the others participating is presented the official intramural emblem or efficiency award. 144 iJL ' mmi Jh. tK..4 WINNING SOFTBALL TEAM First mu: Liebl, Stadtmillcr, Koozcr, Jamison, M.

A group of women decided to unite in the spirit resulting in such a practicable motto as All Sisters Together. Tau doings during the 1939-49 year included many kinds of fun — teas, hikes, and breakfasts, room get-to- gethers, parties and social meetings in Mrs. Gasslander ' s apartment. During the first semester the theme of the social-professional meetings was You. Each program presented op- portunities for improvement. Most of the meetings were led bv different members; however, valuable informa- tion was brought to the Taus by professional people from various fields. On November third the Alpha Sigma Taus celebrated the national founding of the sorority. The Delta Chapter held its Founder ' s Day Ban- quet at Rustic Lodge. Guests were present from Zeta chapter and Johns- town alumnae chapter to join the Indiana members in their Founder ' s Day service. At the first freshman party the Taus and their guests went carnival-ing at Rustic Lodge, complete with fortune teller, side-shows, and an A. S. T. photo studio. The refreshment booths offered hamburgers, spaghetti, pop, and ice cream on sticks. Each Christmas the Taus do char- itable work. This year they presented handkerchiefs and holly baskets to men in wards at the Indiana Hospital. You and Your Friends was sub- ject of the meetings for the second half of the year. Speakers told of travels and topics of interest to sorority mem- bers. Suggestions brought from the convention in St. Louis were absorbed in meetings and school activities. The Taus and their freshman guests went Chinese at a dinner-dance at the Indiana Country Club. After dinner Confucius, the artist, entertained with a chalk talk and Chinese wit; the Tau trio sang, and four imported musicians plaved dance music as China Boy and A Little Street in Singapore. This year Delta Chapter sponsored its second annual Spring Homecoming. At luncheon at the College Inn. alumnae, patronesses, present mem- bers, and pledges met to renew and make acquaintances. Following the program came varied activities. This homecoming has provided an excellent opportunity for Taus, both old and new, to learn to know one another. 166 First row: Camp, Sutter, Garey, Manville, Nelson, Rankin, Stark Second row: Whitman, Teeter, Ellenberger, Rea, McFeeley, Steininger, Brown Third row: Riemann, Evans, Murphy, Gasslander, Storey, Gorley, Cadzow Fourth row: Crum, Walt, Betz, Fairchild, Holben, Rees 167 AEE DELTA SIGMA EPSILON OFFICFPS President Vke-Prcucletit Correspoiuiiii!

Every Beta girl was happy to know that Lillian McLean was back after a vear ' s leave of absence. She kept the girls excited for months over her tales of England before the war. Founder ' s Day, September 23, found the Delta Sigs celebrating in white. At the first professional meeting on November 30, held in the Activities Cottage, Florence B. Kimball talked on personality. An interesting phase of this subject was brought out through the use of check-up sheets on which each girl tested herself. December 16 brought the year ' s first freshman party. Decorated windows told the guests that they were ap- proaching the Bubble Bar. Entering, they hung their wraps under a sign coat-tails hung here. Later, they were refreshed at the bar where coke- tails were served. Dancing was inter- spersed with group and individual singing. Who would think the School Lodge could be turned into a bar? All the Delts can say is, It ' s perfect. The annual Panhellenic dance in December was enjoyed by all the girls of the Delta Sigma Epsilon, as usual. The Delts take credit alone with the Pi Kappa Sigma ' s for the unusual decorations in Recreation Hall which added much to the success of the event. A formal dinner party at the Indiana Countrv Club, soft light and sweet music after an almost too perfect dinner, was just cause for the reluc- tance of all to return to the dorms the night of February 23. A varied pro- gram of chalk-talks, singing, and dancing added its bit to the perfection of the party. With the coming of spring and the conclusion of hectic weeks of rushing, the excitement of bidding was soon followed by pledging of new members and the administration of pledge duties. Then, too, came the planning for the annual Delt dance usuallv held in or near Pittsburgh. As school closes for the year, the Delts can be heard saying, See you at the Delt dance. 168 Joiner Sivcrd Lindhcrf! Artlcv Jackson Horner Billi, Aukcr Paraluis Lcyshon McLean Wirtz Watson Gottwald Parros Kaufman In the summing up the activities of the year 1939-1940, much more could be said con- cerning the enjoyment and the pleasures which the year brought. Possibly the underlying reason for this was the very successful conclave which was held in Cincinnati, Ohio, from August 21 to 26, 1939. Mary Kaufman and Bernice Wirtz, Beta ' s representatives at it, brought back to the chapter manv new usable ideas for both business and pleasure. The girls all agree that it is a grand feeling to belong to an organization as large and as flourish- ing as Delta Sigma Epsilon. 169 YT THETA SIGMA EPSILON OFFICERS President ; Corabel Nelson Vice-President Lillian Little Corresponding Secretary Mary Elizabeth Feitt Recording Secretary Nancy Palmer Treasurer Margaretta Williams Editor Emma Estelle Pfahler Sergeant-at-Arms Doris Letzler Panhellaiic Representatives . . Marie Myers, Cleora Peters, Marian Lynch A NATIONAL EDUCATION At the founding of Alpha Chapter of Theta Sigma Upsilon at Emporia, Kansas, in 1921, the open motto selected was The Higher Good. Since then, fourteen chapters through- out the United States have adopted this belief and the desire to fulfill the five-fold objective. This term has been one of bells, baggage, and boxes for the Theta Sigs. Their former sponsor and present one were both married, and National Con- vention attended by Emma Estelle Pfahler vitalized the ideals of the organization. Perhaps Mr. Kipp could explain how the girls transported their belongings from his studio in the Arts Building to Music Education Department. On the first semester ' s social calen- dar were after-dinner coffee parties at Mrs. L. C. Davis ' with colorful mov- ing pictures or flickering firelight lend- ing atmosphere to Christmas carols; tea with Mrs. Marlin and Mrs. Watson; a professional meeting with Miss Wallace; formal initiation and banquet at the Country Club; a Farmer ' s Party with the sorority girls and freshman guests hiking to the College Lodge. SORORITY FOUNDED IN 1909 With the second semester activities came the formal rush party, this time in quite the opposite style. Gay flower girls, colorful corsages, varied entertainment, and rhumba rhythm gave the gala occasion a decided Spanish accent. March the fourteenth brought rushing season to a close, and the celebration of Founder ' s Day on March 15 with pledging and dinner started the new girls on their way toward membership. These, with formal initiation, pro- fessional meetings, the Mother- Patroness Tea and Senior Farewell, were the outstanding events on the second semester ' s social calendar. Of great importance was the resigna- tion from the college faculty of the former Miss Houston of the Art Department. But even though she has given up her teaching position, she has now become a life member, not only of the Biamonte ' s, but also of Theta Sigma Upsilon. In her stead, the Theta ' s have chosen Mrs. Marlin, who is as efficient and active as though she had been with the sorority since the installation of Pi Chapter. 170 i First row: Ycagcr, Palmer, James, Keller, Csiszar, Davidson, Hancock, Williams Second row: Grihhle, Lehman, Quail, Peters, Michaelson, Gerber, Pfahler, Lynch Third rote: Race, Putney, Nelson, Marlin, Watson, Letzlcr, Kane, Dcnhow Fourth row: Feit, Tobias, Laing, Little, Myers, Lewis, Brasshcld 171 nAe PI DELTA THETA OFFICERS President Hi;len Maher First Vice-President Gahnet Moore Second Vice-President Mary Lu Showman Secretary 15i; riv Risuel Treasurer Phyllis James Chaplain Anne Shank Registrar Jane Younkin Panhellenic Representative .

Many events combine to give an animate description of Lambda Chapter — one that has meaning to a Tri Sigma. The past season was interspersed with various activities. President Margaret Ellen Carnahan met with Tri Sigmas from all over the United States at the triennial National Con- vention held in June at the Broad- moor Hotel, Colorado Springs. In the shadow of Pikes Peak, Tri Sigmas exchanged ideas for bettering chapters, for closer sisterhood. The lo cal chapter of Sigma Sigma Sigma is the oldest sorority in the Association of Education Sororities, founded at Farmville, Virginia, in 1898. Its members and pledges do their best to follow its purpose, to build character, to stimulate high endeavor, develop leadership, pro- mote unselfish co-operation, and create the friendly spirit in all human relationships.

Pledges wear an indented triangle of silver super- imposed upon a silver circle, and, during pledge week, wear a purple and white scarf. With this, the Tri Sigma vearbook closes. There are some things never forgotten; some humorous, some serious, hut all products of a sorority to which the members are all proud to belong. 175 Ulfe HKE PI KAPPA SIGMA OFFICERS Preadfiit Eleanor Moser Via-Pn-sident Rhoda Kepler KecorJnis Secretary - Betty Harris Correspond nt Secretary Jean Snyder Treasurer Verna Chambers Keeper-of-Archives Mary Lou Watson A.ss stai t Keepcr-of-Archives ' aleska Blumenberg Corresponding Editor Caroline McCunn Sergeaiit-at-Arms Anna May- Crooks Panhe Uiiic Representatives Mary Lol ' Watson, Eileen Feeney ' , Charlotte Silliamn A NATIONAL EDUCATION SORORITY FOUNDED IN 1894 In 1894 Georgia. Fox Brown founded an organization at Ypsilanri, Mich- igan, which larcr became Pi Kappa Sigma, the oldest of the Association of Education Sororities. William Henry Channing ' s My Symphony became the expression of Pi Kappa Sigma ideals. The pin adopted was a shield of gold with laurel and turquoise. The Laurel, the national magazine was first edited in 1918. Zeta Chapter was active until 1919 when all sorori- ties were abolished from the campus. In 1930 Zeta was reorganized and since has successfully maintained its place in the national body. Twentv-four actives and pledges answered roll call at the first meeting in September. The first calendar event was the breakfast hike to Rustic Lodge early one morning in October. These hikes have become biennial affairs, and waffles, bacon and coffee, to sav nothing of the usual rainv weather, are anticipated. Later in the month the sorority motored to Mrs. Malonev ' s com- fortable lodge near Indiana for a buffet supper. Dangling skeletons provided a Halloween atmosphere. The hrst freshman party was held in the School Lodge and had the same seasonal connotations. Eleanor Moser, president, repre- sented Zeta at the Northeastern Dis- trict Convention held in Buffalo, New York. Her resume of the convention provided information concerning the activities of other chapters. In N (M ' e m b e r Zeta celebrated Founder ' s Day at the Country Club. The first professional meeting was held in the same month, the theme being Know Your Own School. The chapter went on a tour of each depart- ment in the college. Dim lights, sweet music, dancing couples, all went to make the Pan- hellenic Dance in December a long- awaited social event. Freshman guests were entertained at a formal dinner-dance at the Countrv Club in March. Josephine Wesner, an alumna, interpreted an original piano composition by Virginia Ewing, another alumna. The Mother ' s Day tea climaxed the activities of the chapter. Eleven seniors were entertained at the College Inn.

Welcomes, handshakes, stores of summer adven- tures, and glimpses of a remodeled house create a stronger desire to move forward in scholarship and activities. Building and expansion have been the keywords of Sigma Tau Gamma, national social, educational, and professional fraternity, since it originated at Warrensburg, Missouri, in 1920. Then seventeen men banded together to form the nucleus of the hrst national fraternity operating solely in state teachers colleges. Although stress- ing student friendships and true brotherhood, Sigma Tau Gamma is distinctly pro- fessional in its activities, point of view, and relation to education. Men in other colleges soon joined the movement to obtain a national fraternity, other chapters were organized, and the fraternity was formally nationalized in Emporia, Kansas, in October, 1924. The fraternity continued to grow, until now twenty chapters answer the roll call with many groups asking for charters. The strong national organization aids each chapter through national conclaves, province conventions, chapter visitations, honor kev awards for scholarship and activities, a merit award to the most efficient chapter, and a regulated pledge-study course.

Pi Chapter has con- tinued to build and expand. In May, 1931, the members bought the house at 257 College Avenue. Since then it has been improved to meet the needs of its members, the latest remodeling projects including painting the entire in- side of the house, purchasing furniture, complete rewiring, and imallv the inclosing of the back porches for studv rooms. Each vear a series of professional meetings is planned to offer a well- rounded social and scholastic life and to encourage a satisfactorv teaching personalitv. At the iirst of these meetings Dr. King was given honorary mem- bership. At this time Dr. Walsh presented the Scholarship Key to Joseph Shuster, while Mr. Whitmvre gave the Activities Kev award to Ralph Kier. Lyle Willhite, in a behind-the-scenes talk about Mexico, where he vacationed last summer; and Clark Hess, alumnus of Pi Chapter, in a resume of the cus- toms he observed in Brazil, were the highlights of the next meeting. Brother Hess initiated a program to have distinguished alumni return and speak at regular intervals. This year Pi Chapter ' s social program reached new heights with two house parties, the Interfraternitv Dance, the Christmas party, the big rush partv, pledge parties. Founder ' s IDav banquet, and the hilarious bull sessions. At the Halloween Party, for instance, Chinese Lanterns, corn stalks, pumpkin faces, and scarecrows supplied an eerie setting for the oftheard screams and excited laughs echoing throughout the house. Larrv Dean ' s orchestra pro- vided the musical background for the evening. At another annual event of the fraternity, the Senior Farewell Banquet, taking place in the latter part of May, the voung brothers honor the graduating students. This also marks the execution of a cherished tradition, the election of a member who has been outstanding both in the fraternity and on the campus. He is known thereafter as Honor Man of that vear. 182 Bloom Rousch Kelly Clicnct Reamer New Haines Kier Sulkcy Schnccic Sinclair Santucci Mitchell Paulisick Diehl Winemaii SENIOR MEMBERS One other important event in the history of Pi Chapter this year was the official granting of a charter to the alumni, thus forming a bond that will never permit valued relationships to die between active and alumni members. These SigTaus who have graduated are now doing much to advance and help their undergraduate brothers. The two events now being most eagerly awaited are the anniversary celebration of Pi Chapter and the national conclave to be held in Kansas City during Christmas vacation. 183 cI)AZ PHI ALPHA ZETA OFFICERS Presidents Dan Remley, Robert Kirk Treasurers James O ' Toole, Edward Grundy Record ng Secretary Andrew Sybinsky, Hugh Robertson Corresponding Secretaries Thomas Garber, Ronald Bond Chaplains Alfred Jacques, Elmer Nicklas Sergeants-at-Arms Robert Kirk, John Long House Managers Elme.i Nicklas, Thomas Garber A NATIONAL SOCIAL EDUCATIONAL PROFESSIONAL FRATERNITY FOUNDED IN 1908 Alpha chapter of Phi Alpha Zeta has just completed its thirty-second year of fraternalism at Indiana. Much could be said about the success of the year; it has been crowded with many enjoyable activities and experiences which undoubtedly will long be remembered by the brothers after they have left active membership. Happy are the Phi Alphs to be able to sav that the same high standards and the same worthy purposes of preceding years continue to exist in the group. Emphasis was placed, as it has always been placed, on good fellowship, fraternalism, character, and scholastic endeavor. Uppermost in the minds of the fellows at all times and in all that they participated in has been the advancement of the group as a fraternal organization and the betterment of the individuals as well-rounded personalities. The benefits oflivingina fraternitv house bear out the high standards and pur- poses which idealize Phi Alpha Zeta. This year, mid-year graduation has been re- sponsible for several fellows moving out; several new brothers moved in, making the number living in the house higher than it had ever been before.

After the registers had been checked, it was found that more Phi Alphs had returned than had in any previous year. A special program was arranged for the alumni who had come back to renew old friendship, gain new ones, and swap a few talcs of what used to be. Once more Phi Alpha Zeta served as a haven for both old and new brothers, affording true fellowship on fraternal ground. 185 McLuckie Chew File Remlev Price Uhler King Adc Prugh Margiotti Hill Walsh W ' oodring Miller Whitmyre One of the high-lights of the fraternity s social season was the house p arty that was held at the chapter house in January. A portion of the party was built around caricatures of each member which were hung on the walls of the living room and the reception hall. Upon arriving, each guest was given a blank form on which he was to write the name of the person that each cari- cature depicted. This proved to be a bit more difficult than it first seemed. Many of the brothers had never before seen themselves in quite the same light as did the artist. Prizes were awarded to those guests who were able to name correctly the greatest number of caricatures. The remainder of the evening w as taken up with a musical program, games, dancing, and a jam session. At an appointed hour the guests were shown to the dining room where attractive and tasty refreshments were served. All too soon came the traditional hour that demanded the departure of the guests. Two by two, the party wended its way back to the campus, and all w ere sorry that the evening had ended. With March came the rushing season. A smoker was held for the un- derclassmen at the fraternity house. The party preceded Pledging Day, April 1, and culminated the drive for new members. Soon after, hell-week con- verted the pledges into bona fide Phi Alphs. At the coming of Fall and a new school year, the Phi Alphs will again gather at the house to begin another vear together. Much missed will be those who have graduated; however, the memory of the year with them will be ever present. 186 Taylor Thomas Hill Williams ZolTiito S.

Eta, the first eastern chapter, installed at Indiana, April 30, 1929, will always be grateful to the distinguished body of professional men at Warrensburg, Missouri who estab- lished the national fraternity in 1916. The members of Omega Chi, a local fraternity, became the charter members, with Dr. Walter P. Percival as sponsor. Eta chapter, the first Indiana fraternity to provide a home for its members, maintained the fourth floor of the Y.M.C.A. as fraternity headquarters until the chapter moved to its present home at 413 College Avenue in the fall of 1933. The national constitution of Phi Sigma Pi provides that once each year a Found- er ' s Dav Banquet shall be held by each local chapter. At this time a distinguished alumnus of the college or an eminent educator shall be initiated as an honorary mem- ber of the fraternity. This year at the Founder ' s Day Banquet, a dinner dance held at the Countrv Club, January 12, Dr. LeRoy A. King, President of Indiana State Teachers College, was so honored.

Twice during the pastvearL. C. Davis, for ten vears the facultv sponsor of Eta Chapter, led the meetings. Dr. John Keith, former President of Indiana State Teachers College, was an enthusiastic Phi Sig. After his death, Mrs. Keith presented his pin to Eta chapter to be used as a memorial award. Each year, at a formal service, the pin is bestowed upon the junior having the highest scholastic average, to be worn by him the succeeding vcar. Homecoming Day, primarily a college day, reunites the Phi Sig brothers, gives them a chance to elect the alumni officers for the coming year and to make plans for the annual summer dance. At the Interfraternity Dance in November, Phi Sigs again had the good fortune to renew friendships with their graduate men. With the beginning of the second semester the Phi Sigs began to think seriously of underclassmen who could and would become active members of their organization. The rush season was climaxed by a smoker, a tradition as old as Eta Chapter, at the Moore Hotel. Impromptu speeches, faculty jokes, and a floor show constituted the early entertainment, after which the guests and brothers returned to the fraternity house where motion pictures of school activities were shown. 190 Ikjycr Shick Illar Adams Alderson Scockdalc Zeiglcr D.

At this time pledge masters became almost inhuman in imposing upon the neophytes many duties such as pressing pants, cleaning house, and caring for the lawn— after which they receive d a very rigid initiation. The annual spring house party was held late in April. By this time pledges, pledge duties, and black-balls were forgotten. The formal initiation was over, and the past pledges were members of Phi Sigma Pi. 191 n u THE DOUGLASS STUDIO Indiana ' s Leading — PORTRAIT and COMMERCIAL PHOTOGRAPHER 38 So. 7th Street INDIANA, PA.
