Zorena, Business Manager PRESENTED BY THE STUDENTS OF INDIANA St y r THE jm ATE TEACHERS COLLEGE, INDIANA, PENNSYLVANIA ARCHIVES (J the Indiana boy and girl, representatives of x- merican youth, we dedicate this Thirtieth ' olume of the Oak. Their courage, their vigor, their desire to carry on as real Americans makes this dedication more than justified. A TCICUTE I 1 HROUGH this pictorial edi- tion, the editors have endeav- ored to mark with tangible evidence the work and play that has been yours at Indi- ana. From the classrooms, the dance, the game, the concert, the corner has come realistic testimony of these activities. If you may look back years hence and live again, through this Oak, those hours spent at Indiana, the editors will know a certain sense oi ac- complishment.

King has ser ed as Presi- dent of Indiana State Teachers College he has endeared himself to students and facult - alike. Dr. King received his degree of doctor of Philosoi: hy while teach- ing at the University of Pennsyl- vania in 1920. Throughout his many years in the field of educa- tion he has held several offices in state as well as local educational associations. His influence is markedly shown in Indiana ' s constant imoroNe- ment. 20 THE 1941 OAK TO THE SENIORS . . Dr. King and Tunne ' Four student years at Indiana are now a ' itally significant part of your experience. This college has given you some of the tools necessary for a happy, useful life. Indiana ' s ideals of denio- cratir co-operation, fair play, high purpose, and professional integrity are surely part of your own equipment as citizens and teachers in the Commonwealth. It is now your great privilege to use the best that you have gained here in helping to solve the i)roblems of a world that can not and must not go backward. LeRov a. King, President I ' orinii over a wcll-ciivcred desk. Dr. Kint! dictates to secretary 21 Florence B. Kimball Deaii of Women SUPERVISING STUDENT LIFE ON THE CAMPUS Florence B. Kimball is now in her third year of service at Indiana as Dean of Women. She now has approximately one thousand women under her guidance, Walter 1 I. Whitmyre has been with Indiana for more than two decades. He acts as Dean of Men in addition to heading the Social Studies Department. Both Deans collaborated in the teaching of Freshman orientation classes the past year. Walter M. Whitmyre Dean of Men 22 Dean of Instruction Matthew J. Walsh is known by students for his interest and willing- ness to assist in the solving of student problems. Probably the first person freshmen meet at Indiana is Mary L. Esch. She has charge of all school records other than finance. William Schuster and his Staff handle all col- lege financial matters. In addition, he supervises campus organization funds other than those of the Student Co-operative. Besides his work as Director of Personnel, Paul Boyts works on extra-curricular activities, stu- dent employment, athletics, and publicity. Matthew J.

Dr. Uhler, Director of Teacher Education, now has under his su- pervision elementary and junior high school student teachers. Demonstration teaching, a new gym, and the addition of the tenth grade have all aided in establishing a more efficient Laboratory School. Mr. Davis, Director of the Lab- oratory School, coordinates the school with the program of student teaching, demonstration, and ob- servation.

In line with the National De- fense policy, the Business Educa- tion Department went on a Na- tional Preparedness Program basis during the second semester. Special non-credit drill courses open to all students of the Department were ofTered in machine practice, short- hand dictation, typing skill, and laboratory work in bookkeeping.

He should ha e a broad educational outlook. In order to meet these specifications set u]) 1) superin- tendents, this Department ' s cur- ricuhmi is kept flexible so as to be able to meet the changes in the field. Indiana ' s graduates are well pre- pared because of the excellent fac- ulty and superior equii ment. Peri- odic student recitals, broadcasts, and special music jirograms play an important part in thi- De;)art- mcnt ' - work. Lejt: Potential Kreislers Right: Symphony jam-session 28 THE 1941 OAK A.

The National Preparedness policy of fortifying the American home first was integrated in nutri- tion and consumer education class- es recenth introduced. These were conducted by the Department in cooperation with count}- educa- tional groujjs. Special credit is gi en to the girls of this Department who oper- ated the new cafeteria and who assisted with local welfare i)roiects throughout the jear.

The Art faculty consists of eight teachers of wide and varied experience in both edu- cation and fine arts. Housing in the main floor of the Arts Building with up-to-date equipment lends an atmosphere conducive to fine work. An art-structure method of creative expression emphasizes development and thinking rather than skills. Radio broadcasts and a movie in color of the Depart- ment ' s major activities were in- novations in 1941.

McLean Director of Elemeritary Assistatit Director of Division Elementary Division Cooperation between the college and the Laboratory School has ex- panded this year. A department of foreign languages was added, and French and Spanish were taught. French was also made available in the Laboratory School. Additional space for the science department on the first floor of Leonard Hall allowed more labora- tory classes to be offered. Ai)i)roximately forty people were graduated from the Division ' s new ])iIot-training course this year. This is being sponsored by the Civil Aeronautics Authority. The function of the Elementary Division is the preparation of teachers for kindergarten, primary, intermediate, and rural school posi- tions. This Division has a broad course of stud ' which makes in- valuable contributions to the knowledges, skills, and cultures that are essential for happy, intel- ligent, efificient citizenship. Tech- niques for imparting these knowl- edges are carefully developed. Indiana has an enviable reputa- tion because of the efficiency of its elementary teachers in service. 31 JKUUf FACULTY ENGLISH GEOGRAPHY C. B. Norton L. C.

The introduction of double pe- riods of composition in order to use the laboratory- method of teaching writing was an innova- tion. Increased indixidual at- tention helped students who showed a desire to help them- selves. Geography The Geography Department has developed three major lines of endeavors recently. It has taken over a portion of the ground school for the aviation course. Mr. Da is has enlarged his field work to include -South America ami Miss Zink has made an intensive stud ' of cur- rent geograpln ' curriculum. ,■52 THE 1941 OAK Joy Mahachek Joseph M.

To that end courses are provided in pure mathematics for students majoring in the subject and in techniques of teaching mathe- matics for both elementary and secondary students. Education The main feature which dis- tinguishes Indiana from other non-professional schools is its Education Department. This is the only department that serves every other department directly. Subjects such as Psychology and Place and Purpose of Education in the Social Order are handlofl by the Education Department. O i i 13 33 PHYSICAL EDUCATION p ' SCIENCE George P.

Two replace- ments occurred in the faculty. Greater stress and more interest in football was also evident. As in previous years individual and community health was empha- sized in hygiene classes. Science An increase in the enrollment of the Department ' s classes ne- cessitated the addition of new laboratories. With this expan- sion on the first floor of Leonard Hall classes are now operated on a full laboratory basis. This De- partment also has the distinction of at sometime serving the entire student body. :a LIBRARY SOCIAL STUDIES ESTELLE M. SlAVEN WaLTER M.

Social Studies The imparting to students- of knowledges, apjjreciations, and interests required for living effec- tively in a society of increasing interdependence was the key- note of instruction this ear. The Social Studies Department at Indiana aims to i)roduce well- qualified teachers who will carry this knowledge to their students. 35 FACULTY BUSY HOURS Lejt: Pounding out a grade Right: The masculine touch in the Home Ec Department ,( .- Watch the professor Right: Industry in the library Left: Now here ' s how we get the weather.

In a few days almost three hundred Seniors will garb themselves in cap and gown and receive the highest honor given any student at Indiana. ' During their four- ear stay on the campus these persons, through their studies and activities, ha ■e changed from mere adolescents to men and women read ' to take their places in the field they have chosen. Four years ago a group of nai ' e, awestricken Freshmen wandered about the campus, soon to delight in the enthusiasm of their first prom. As Sophomores they began to try their wings and to merit inclusion in almost every activit} ' on campus. Cultivated suavity, carefree attitude, and pronounced activit - indicated that the group had become the Junior class, as much at ease in the ballroom as in the accustomed classroom. As Seniors the class awoke to the realization that outings, proms, and pleasant associations would soon be memories and that the ' would become members of that great bodv — the Alumni. 38 COMMENCEMENT . . . AN EPOCH IN THE LIFE OF A SENIOR The faint strains of an academic march usher the column of seniors across the campus to the commencement ceremonies where the hopes and aspirations of four years are cuhninated. With the speakers chal- lenge comes the realization that the thoughtful care and guidance of the administration and the facult - will he but a memory. The part- ing of the wa ' has come, and when the cherished diploma is carried away the student takes so much more than he l)rought.

As Freshmen, the class had an enrollment of 495; as Sophomores, 389; its present status shows 326 students. Participation in campus affairs has given the individual members insight into future social and educational activities. The first meeting of the year was called for the purpose of organizing the class in order to carry on the activities planned for the year. This year ' s officers, under the sponsorship of Mr. L. H. Schnell, were: Donald Frischmann, President; Walter Kipp, Vice-President; Jane Evans, Secretary; Samuel Hogue, Treasurer; Robert Swanson, Assistant Treasurer. The Junior Spring Dance, held on March 22, 1941 in Recreation Hall, proved to be the most popular activity.

The class elected as its officers Wayne Scott, President; Francis Patt, ' ice-President; Paul Berkley, Treasurer; and Barbara Rifenbary, Secretar} ' . Student Council representa- tives were Jane Lewis, Robert McGrew, and Russell Santangelo. Knthusiasm shown by the Class was the chief factor in making the Sophomore Prom a very enjoyable occasion. It w ' as held in Recreation Hall on December 7, 1940. Cecil Golly and his Orchestra furnished both the music and the entertainment for the event.

Slightly awestricken they gazed about at fellow classmates and sophisticated upperclassmen, at the campus that since has grown familiar and loved, at the facult - who have come to be admired and respected. With the bustle and confusion of registration over, schedules were memorized and classes began to assume that faintly monotonous air of regularity; the confused blur of foreign faces slowly catalogued itself into distinct personali- ties. Realization came upon these people that they are a group — a large and important group — the Class of 1944. As such they began to assert themselves. Meeting for the first time, they are introduced to and directed by their sponsor, Inez Buchanan. To find suitable officers for the class, the group selected a nominating committee composed of one representative from each department. With candi- dates presented, ballots were cast and the results awaited.

From the Freshman Class have come outstanding par- ticipants in the college activities and functions. The foot- ball, basketball, boxing, and wrestling squads were all aug- mented by the presence of freshman athletes; both Penn and Oak staffs contained names of many freshmen ; scholastic achievements were particularly outstanding among fresh- man students. As the school year closes registration day with all its con- fusion seems very far away. When this year ' s class rea] pears on campus, they will be up]:)erclassmen ready to parti- cipate even more freely in campus affairs. Indiana will be no longer new and strange to them. 70 UNDERCLASSMEN ccor Twc PCATECNIllES JtvusHiNG . . . Interfrat . . . Panhell .... teas .... house parties .... Thursday nights .... hell week ....

Its purpose is to encourage outstanding contributions to education. Members of Kappa Delta Pi are selected for their scholarship, leadership, and other de- sirable personal qualities. To be elected to membership in Kappa Delta Pi is the greatest honor that can come to any student at In- diana. During the year Beta Gamma Chapter has been active on the Indiana campus. The breakfast meeting in the fall in honor of Dr. William H. Kilpatrick, leading educator and laureate member of Kappa Delta Pi, excellent monthly meetings, and the ever great Alumni Banquet made the year a truly successful one. 76 THE 1941 OAK MEMBERS Jane Beaconi Esther Caldwell Sarah Caldwell Reed Calhoun Elizabeth Corcoran Kathleen Banner Glenn Davis Winifred Eitnier Harry Flowers Jean Groleau Jess Hartley Ethel Hornick Jeanette Hunter Phyllis James Eileen Johnson Dorothy Karabinus Olga Mae Kolcum Jean Liddicoat Mildred Mamula Pauline Master Alice Moorhead Esau Motovich Dorothy Mulhollen Beth Munro Joseph Orlosky Richard Pearson Anthony Perfilio Jane Rairigh Nancy Robling Harriet Rockefeller Mary Lois Shaffer Gracella Shaull Frances Sharp James Sheaffer Joseph Shuster Dorothy Smith Majorie Stotler Joseph Vargo Virginia Wall Helen Weed Eleanor Whitacre Doris Whitman June Wilgus Mary Wilgus Barbara Wise Budd Wolfe ACTIVE FACULTY Joy Mahachek Martha E.

It is composed of two rejiresentatives from each sorority. The initial social function of the year was the Panhellenic Tea, which brought the freshman girls into closer contact with the sorority girls. With the holiday season came the most gala affair, the Panhellenic Christmas Dance. On this occasion Paul Hickson and his Washington and Jefferson College band created the terpsichorean atmos- phere in true festive style. During the year the Panhellenic Asso- ciation contributed to two outside groups, the Tuberculosis and the Community Funds. 86 FRATERNITIES INTERFRATERNITY COUNCIL MEMBERS Phi Alpha Zeta Glenn Davis, Robert Kirk Phi Sigma Pi Elwood Sheeder, Frank McGrew, Flovd Smith Sigma Tan Gani ia Anthony Perfilkj, Donald Frischmann The Interfraternity Council consists of ten men: the Dean of Men who acts as chairman; the presidents and sponsors ol Phi Sigma Pi, Phi Alpha Zeta, and Sigma Tau Gamma; and one sjiecia! representa- tive from each.

The local unit, Alpha Gamma, was the third to be established and has been particularh- active since 1928 when it was reinstated on the Indiana campus. This season proved to be a busy one for the .Alpha Sigs. .After the initiation of new members an exciting rushing season period began. The members entertained freshmen guests at a gay ranch party and later in the year at a gala dinner- dance. Eight girls represented Alpha Gamma at the Cleveland Regional Convention and returned with many clexer idea.- of benefit to the group. The girls enjo ed man - activities together, such as a theatre party in Pittsburgh, breakfast hikes, and many other informal events. The Panhel- lenic Dance at Christmas, the Alumnae Lunch- eon in Pittsburgh, and the Founder ' s Day Lunch- eon were highlights on the social program. yii SORORITIES Marie Beard Beatrice May Dorothy Black Martha Brewer Marjorie Cline Theda Crissman Gwendolyn Davison Winifred Eitnier Ruth Guy Rebecca Greenlee Gwendolyn (iriffith Grace Divens Dorothy Howe Rhoda Hunter ' ivian Kennedv Jean Liddicoat Bette Lyon Ethel Belden Joy Mahachek Alice Moorhead Bertha McDowell Isobel Opal Madelene Shaeffer Geraldine Shanabrook ' ivian Sinclair Jeanne Smith Ruth Taylor Janet Walker Lois N ' aIton Mary Helen Wardlaw Janet Waring Margaret Whitesell June Wilgus Marv Claire Winger D THE 1941 OAK 91 SORORITIES OFFICERS Doris Letzler President Ethel Watsox Vice-President BOBLVN QlAII, Treasurer Verna James Recording Secretary Dorothy Davidsox Corresponding Secretary I-iLLiAK Little Editor Do ROTH V Da idson Bettv Kaxe Pan ie knic Representatives Mrs. Irma Marlik Sponsor THETA SIGMA UPSILON PI The ear has been a red-letter one for Pi Chapter of Theta Sigma L ' psilon.

Following Christmas activities, the annual patronesses ' tea was held in the Activities Cot- tage, and the freshmen were again entertained at a formal party.

Quite as the history of any organization should read, the fraternity has enjoyed one of the best years it has ever known. Change and improvement, always inevitable and welcome in any living and growing group, was witnessed and experienced dur- ing the year. However, one phase of Phi Alpha Zeta-ism that under- went no change was the group ' s high standards and purposes set up many years ago. Good fellowship, fraternalism, character, and scholastic endeavor are still getting their share of attention along with the advancement of the group as a fraternal organization and the betterment of the individuals as well-rounded personages.

Among the social events on the fraternity ' s calendar were the Interfraternit} ' Dance, the house ]:)arties, and the [professional meetings. Many enjoyable hours were also spent around the ping-pong table, the pool table, the fire])lace, and in an - corner suitable for a bull session. The year ' s actix ' ities culminated in the rushing sea- son. A smoker was held for the underclassmen at the house shortly before pledging.

This Chapter was originally organized as the Phi Kappa Delta Fraternity. In answer to a need for wider contacts, the fraternity petitioned Sigma Tau Gamma National, and with cooperation of local authorities was given its present status. Sigma Tau Gamma fosters activities through national and re- gional conclaves, chapter visitations, honor key awards for scholar- ship and activities, a plaque for the most efficient chapter, and a standardized pledge-study course.

On November 7, 8, and 9 the Council played host to the annual conference of the Co-operative Association of the Pennsylvania State Teachers Colleges. The Conference theme was Every Co-operative Member Participating in His College Program. Dr. E. K. Fretwell, noted educator of Columbia LJniversity, attended as guest speaker and advisor. During the course of the business meetings and social gatherings the delegates had the opportunit - to not only see the physical plant of the college but also the school as it normally functions. During Christmas vacation the Council sent George Curley to represent Indiana at the Annual Conference of the National Student Federation of America, and on Febru- ary 21, 22, and 23 delegates attended the Pennsylvania In- tercollegiate Student Government at Penn State. Delegates were also sent this spring to the Eastern States Conference at Columbia Lniversity. Suggestions on all student prob- lems were brought back by the delegates.

Officers for the year were: President, Glenn Davis: ' ice- President, John Freed; Secretary, Robert McGrew; Treas- urer, Paul Woodring. One of the most important items of the year ' s work was the drawing up and adoption of the budget for the regular session. The income, derived chiefly from student activity fees and bookroom profits, supports every campus activity that requires funds from the Association in order to function. These include varsity athletics, lectures, concerts, assem- blies, conferences, intramural sports, publications, weekly dances, and the College Lodge. The Association operated on a budget of approximately thirty thousand dollars this year. The group, representative of each of the four classes of the school, strives to the greatest extent to bring to the stu- dents the most varied, justifiable, and beneficial extra- curricular program possible.

Two representatives from the Senior, Junior, Sophomore, and Freshman classes, plus the Dean of Men, an e -officio member, comprise the Executive Board of the League, which acts as a governing body to which all problems affect- ing men students as a whole, are brought. This board chooses its own president, who selects committees for the various affairs arising during the school year. One of the most important parts of the work of the League is the enforcement of freshman customs. The Sopho- more Tribunal, sel ected from the League, and composed of five men of the Sophomore Class meets to decide upon rules for the customs period and to mete out punishment to re- fractorv Freshmen.

In order that work may be done expeditiously, matters concerning dormitory regulations are taken care of by the League Council, which consists of officers and representa- tives from various sections of the dormitories. The Advisory Board, members of which are chosen according to classes, strives to develop a friendly feeling among resident and non- resident women students. The work of the League Council and the Advisory Board is closely correlated. The Council refers suggestions made by hall groujis to the Board ; the Board takes action, proposing ways to deal with xarious situations. Among the arious activities the League sponsored was a party in September for all freshmen. The officers of the League Council are: Doroth}- Kara- binus.

STUDENT ADMINISTRATION STUDENTS ' CENTRAL TREASURY Officers Paul Beckley President Georgia Rea Secretary Lyle O. Willhite Adviser Clinton M. File Central Treasurer Most recent addition to the campus organization roster is the Central Treasury which was set up to take care of the rising need for a centralized system of inter-school account- ing. The Board of Trustees approved the objectives of se- curing uniformity in accounting records, establishing con- tinuity between business otficers and their successors, afford- ing systematic methods for handling business transactions, and assisting in keeping their activities on a sound basis. With the consent and approval of the Board Dr. Clinton M. File was named Central Treasurer by Dr. King. All funds of organizations are deposited in a central fund against which checks are written. The Central Treasury thus renders banking services to organizanions. This system provides that auditing services will be avail- able to members at all times. It further provides that it will facilitate the internal management of organizations, giving students official business procedure conforming to modern procedures. Small service charges borne by each member take care of the direct expenses of the Treasury.

The committee includes five faculty members and seven students, the latter elected from the various departments and the Student Council. It is hoped that by the trial-and-error method the best will evolve, thereby increasing student par- ticipation. The Committee does not make final decisions: they are left to the stu- dents. In the organization of the Assembly Committee, the suggestions of the Stu- dent Participation in College Manage- ment were followed. A representative was selected from each of the six departments and the Student Council. Dr. Ralph Heiges was the fac- ulty chairman of the Committee and meetings were held to plan the programs. Members aided in arranging and present- ing some programs. Representatives of the community participated and there were presentations by the departments. Not the least part of the weekly assembly was the devotional exercise. Sealed: Whitmyre, Kimball, Schnell, .ink, Willhite Slanding: Curley, Lewis, Cihrisr, Hornick.

The League has grathialh , through the ears of its existence, gained recognition on the campus. Each month the Xon-Resident women held a tea in the Acti ities Cottage using an appropriate seasonal theme. The an- nual outing, to which the Non-Resident Men were invited, was held Xoxember 22 at the Lodge. The officers were: President, Grace, Walker; Vice-President, Ella Margaret Anderson; Secretary ' , Jane Beck; and Treasurer, Anne Pezzuti. The organization of the Men ' s Non-Resi- dent Student League is rapidly taking its place among other college organiza- tions. During the first semester the commut- ing women invited the League to an out- ing held at the School Lodge, and l)etween semesters non-resident students held a part} ' i n Recreation Hall. Also during the second semester the League jointly held various parties. The purpose of these parties are to promote the aims of the or- ganization: campus recognition, promote social contact, inspire friendship, good will, and co-operation.

Ger Rune, the local chapter, has its name, ritual, and nomenclature based upon the Anglo-Saxon culture. Admission is by original manuscript submitted anony- mously. Since the time of its admission in 1930, Ger has become one of the most active runes. It annually publishes Scroll, in which the best of the past year ' s literary output is published. This magazine is widely distributed on the Indiana campus. Quill ' s national organ is Parchment in which are pub- lished manuscripts submitted by the fifteen runes and undergraduates from colleges throughout the nation. In December, at Mrs. Macdonald ' s house, pledges were initiated into full membership. Officers for the year were: Chancellor, Charlotte Stidham; ' ice-Chancellor, Mrs. Helen F.

In the second place, it serves as a rec- ord of the activities of the College. Currently it carries a kaleidoscopic picture of all the happen- ings during the week: the large and small, the ridiculous and the sublime, the commuter and the boarder, the non-fraternity and the frater- nity. The Penn conducts an active exchange system ■with teachers colleges, liberal arts col- leges, high schools, and universities in several states. For several years representati es from the staff have gone to the Columbia .Scholastic Press Association ' s annual meeting in New York, re- turning with fresh ideas and enthusiasms. The staff ' of the Penn is selected from inter- ested students who volunteer their services be- cause they are interested in journalism. An effort is made to start promising freshmen so that they might rise to higher positions as they gain in experience and amount of service. The Editors-in-Chief selected by the Publi- cations Committee were Reed Calhoun, first semester, and M. Betty Gosnell, second sem- ester. A second semester innovation was the ap- pointment of a salaried assistant editor. Ruth Knowles was faculty adviser while Clinton M. File acted as financial adviser and Mabel Shouse as typing adviser. 14; PUBLICATIONS A SATURDAY FEATURE The Staff Reed Calhoun M.

Having co ered such out- standing events as the ItaHan- Ethiopian War, the Spanish civil war, and the Chino-Jajjanese trouble, the speaker was able to give a vivid picture of the world of toda} ' and what it may mean tomorrow. Mr. Knickerbocker, be- ing a stern ad ocate of American victory, stated that the best way for the United States to win is by helping Britain in every possible way. One of Indiana ' s most attractive stage features this j-ear — particu- larly from the feminine viewpoint — was the appearance of Jimmv Stewart, screen star and Academy Award winner.

THE 1941 OAK ia4te. e(U4d Jane Cowl, first lady of the American stage, gave a brilliant lecture-recital on The Theatre on October 7, at 8 15 o ' clock. The famous actress augmented her lecture by anecdotes and excerpts from several of her most outstanding successes, including Romeo and Juliet Anthony and Cleopatra and Smilin Through. Miss Cowl gave excellent advice for future campus dramatic pre- sentations. Catherine Littlefield and her Ballet gave a type of program foreign to the Indiana campus since 1936 when Ted Shawn jire- sented his ensemble of men dancers. The synchronization and grace of the Ballet beauti- fulh blended the dancers into a single unit that depicted the graceful Aurora ' s Wedding, the old-style Barn Dance, and the ultra-modern Cafe Soci- ety. The modern adolescent char- acter, Henry Aldrich of radio fame, was portrayed on the stage of Indiana ' s new auditorium when the Leonard Literary So- ciety presented Clififord Gold- smith ' s current play success, What .7 Lije. Under the direc- tion of Miss Sprowls the cast gave the comedy the delicate touch so often overlooked when students attemi)t romedN roles.

Leonard who was Preceptress of the College for fort -nine ears. Her portrait now hangs in North Hall of John Sutton. In memor ' of this pioneer in education we have Leonard Literary Society. The organization has brought to the campus this year a top-flight artist from Hollywood and one from Broadway. It has from its own Theatre Workshop presented three full-evening pla s and man ' one acts. These one-acts along with the full-length plays gave a beginning experience to many who might never otherwise have had opportunity to engage in dramatics. The workshop builds hours of service in theatre experience for English majors, especially juniors and seniors. It also includes seniors from other department -. 150 MhA4jC ' Ir ing Chevette Diii ' c or of Music Departweul MUSIC AT INDIANA .. CHARACTERIZED BY TALENTED VARIETY Dr. Ir ing Chevette came to Indiana as head of the Music Department in 1938 short!} ' after recei int; his Doctor (il VAu- cation degrees. He was born in New York soon after the turn of the present century. While in high school he studied the clarinet and cello. After graduation he studied law, acting, pla writing, and ad- vertising, but finally decided upon music. Dr. Cheyette at- tended the Julliard School of Music and Columbia l ' ni ersit - principally. The Choir of eight}- oices is one oi the largest music units on our campus. It is directed l)y Mary H. Muldowne -. It participated in a Christmas broadcast and i resented the Christmas Nativity program. In March this group appeared at Carnegie Hall, Pittsburgh. A sacred Choral Concert in the local Presbyterian church and the annual Music Festival Pro- gram in our auditorium were two features. Participation in assemblies and other campus concerts were equalK important. COLLEGE CHOIR 152 THE 1941 OAK MEN ' S GLEE CLUB The Men ' s Glee Club, under the direction of James Reniley, is open to all college men. Their fine work was displayed at the Annual Christmas Dinner, music for one service during Spiritual Life Week, P. T. A. meetings in local schools, school Viroadcasts, the Spring Mu- sic Festi al, and other off-campus events. The Junior Choir is an organi- zation in itself this year, and is di- rected by James Remley. It is a mixed group of approximate!)- sixt - oices. Besides its laboratory work this organization participated in the Christmas Program, Si)irit- ual Pife Week, College assembK ' programs, and concerts on and oft the campus. A girls ' organization directed by Aagot K. M. Borge, the X ' esper Choir is made up of students of the Music Department together witli a limited number of other girls. Their work is largely a capella. Participation in Sunday vesper services marked t]l ■i.■ actixitics.

They played for a Sunda} ' exening religious ser ' ice, an assenibK program, the town College Club, and for faculty-student recitals in the Music Department. The College Symphony Orchestra, like se era! other music units, is open to all students. The repertoire of the orchestra includes the works of our classic, romantic, and contemporar} composers. Lawrence C. Stitt wields the baton. This grou]) participated in special college programs, public recitals, and radio broadcasts. Itisec]ually important insofar as laboratory work is concerned.

Like other Music Department units, this grouj:) is valuable for group per- formance of manuscript transcriptions for the quintet. Directed by Irving Cheyette the Concert Band is open to all interested students. The work of this organization can be seen in the assemblies, commencement exercises, spring con- certs and radio broadcasts. American Music in the American Schools served as the theme of their princii al radio broadcast this year. This group also serves as a laboratory o surve - literature for junior and senior high schools.

On two occasions contingents of band members, at their own ex- pense, ff)llowed the team to the games abroad. This organization participated in community-sponsored parades and patriotic programs. It was also valuable in teaching students of the department the techniques of handling a maneu ering band on the football field. ■ 18 -i-i ' ,.-«|i. li6 CoM pLM CoM OM NANCY ROBLING In the best jilaces with the best people . . .

Two of the main purposes of the club are to provide loans for its athletes and to foster goodwill with our visiting opponents. The club also had many social contacts dur- ing the year. At a winter outing held at the School Lodge, eleven faculty members were initiated as honorary members of the chili. As a finale for the season, the chili sponsored a ' arsitv ' audeville Show. WOMEN ' S VARSITY ' T ' CLUB The Women ' s Varsity I Club consists of girls who have earned 1000 points by active participation in the Women ' s Athletic Asso- ciation. It Is recognized as an honorary ath- letic association. The three-fold purpose of the organization is to continue social contacts with all girls in- terested in athletics, to further the athletic program, and to retain ideals and enjoyment in athletic participation. The Women ' s Varsit}- I collaborates with the Women ' s Athletic Association in staging the annual play day. 202 INTRAMURAL SPORTS WOMEN ' S ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION National De-Fence Girls Left 10 right: Pringle, Bodendorfer, Jordan, Ellenberger, Shaffer, Teeter, Miller The Women ' s Athletic Association, the basic club of all women ' s sports, was organized to foster interest and skill in recreational activities, as well as to develop habits of good-sportsman- ship and fair play. Since membership is auto- matically open to all girls at Indiana, the W.A.A. attempts to attain the whole-hearted support and co-operation of those taking active part. Because of the decided opposition to all forms of inter-scholastic games which exploit the play impulse and destroy- human values, a well- rounded intramural program directed by the Athletic Council has been provided. The tourna- ments included field hockey, volleyball, basket- ball, mushball, archery, and individual meets such as swimming, ping-pong, tennis, shuffle- board, and fencing. Besides the regular games played every Monday evening and Friday after- noon, play nights are frequently ' held throughout the year. By participation in the various acti- vities and by holding an athletic office, points for winning a X ' arsity I can l)e earned. The Women ' s Athletic Council consists of Lena Ellenberger, Lois Teeter, Ruth Pringle, Helen Shaffer, Fay Miller, Freda Bodendorfer, and Ruth Jordan. 204 THE 1941 OAK CHAMPS Field hockey, the initial intra- mural tournament of the year, pro ecl to he extremely successful among the women athletes.

Boyts in furthering this work. Each is given an intramural service award, the intramural jacket. The chief aims of the program are: pro iding ath- letics for present enjoyment; teaching and training stu- dents in athletic activities; developing habits of good sportsmanship and fair play; understanding the game so as to get greater enjoyment from participating in and watching the game; preparing students to organize and promote intramural sports in the public schools. Approximately seventy-five per cent of the men en- rolled take part in intramurals although no awards are given for individual sports. Added to the program re- cently was an Intramural Sports Day. The Intramural Departments of California, Clarion, Indiana, and Slip- pery Rock have initiated plans to hold a quadrangular sports day. MEN ' S INTRAMURAL COMMITTEE MEMBERS Paul Boyts Robert Timmons Earl E. Prugh Markle DeMezza William I.ee George Miller THE 1941 OAK 207 INTRAMURAL SPORTS INTRAMURAL Indiana ' s intramural sports program that dates iiack to the Fall of 1932 is under the supervision of Paul H. Boyts of the Geography Department. This feature of the Physical Education De- ])artment was developed in recognition of the need of athletic training for all future teachers. Assisting Mr. Boyts are four students — two senior managers and two assistant managers. Each manager serves two semesters after which he receives the intramural service award, the intramural jacket. The four managers this past year have been Markle DeMezza, Bill Lee, Fred Timm and Stanley Kochin. Each year three members of the sen- ior class who have been most active in intramurals and who pass the required test are awarded intramural jackets. Others are presented official intramural emblems or efiiciency awards. FOUL SHOOTING Buchanan, Moyer, McElhoes VOLLEYBALL CHAMPS Phi Sigma Pi SWIMMING TEAM BASKETBALL CHAMPS Y.M.C.J. 208 THE 1941 OAK SPECIALISTS The Travelers won the championship of the 1940 intramural softhall tourna- ment last Spring. Their victory marked the second consecutive year they have won the tourney. This year ' s volley- ball tourney was won by the Phi Sigma Pi fraternity combination. The annual basketball series saw the championship go to the Y.M.C.A. for the second consecutive year only after they defeated the Commuters ' cjuintet 23-22 in the last game of a three-game playoff. The foul-shooting contest resulted in a tie for first place between Leroy Moyer and Bill Buchanan, both of whom completed 41 out of 50. Con- stantino and McElhoes tied for second place with 40 out of 50. The 1941 Ping-Pong tournament was won by Clair Wagner. Lejl to right: Evanko warms up with the punching bag. On your mark . . .

The Club has grown into one of the largest or- ganizations on the campus. The membership for the 1940-41 season numbers over four hundred stu- dents and faculty. The purpose of the Club is to encourage its meml)ers to engage in healthful outdoor activities. The College Lodge is the site of most of its meetings. Each Friday night and Saturday- afternoon, weather conditions permitting, the Club members charter the college bus and travel to the Lodge for skiing, snobogganing, and tobogganing. 210 SPORTS Other events included several trips to the Shaffer Ice Palace in Johnstown to witness college hockey games, after which skating was enjoyed b ' the groups. Sev- eral trips were made to the outdoor artificial rink at Greensburg. A trip to the famous winter sports center at Cooks Forest was also taken. Some of the members participate in hikes through the snow over the college property. Others engage in snow battles, making of snow fig- ures, etc. The Lodge is always available for dancing. (A juke- box w as rented by the club this season for the use of those who wished to dance between various outdoor activities.) Refreshments were served at all events.
