UHLER Oil PRESIDENT Dr. Joseph M. Uhler, in an effort to further the progress of the college, has continued to uphold this policy: to put forth every effort in bettering the school academically, culturally, socially, spiritually, and athletically. Prior to his election as President on October 2, 1943, Dr. Uhler was on the Indiana campus for seventeen years in the capacity of instructor, Director of Extension, Head of Education Department, and Director of Student Teaching. His experience in all of these positions has given him a grasp of the details necessary to administer the affairs of the college. His untiring efforts to assist the students at any time have made him a friend to all. DR. UHLER DR. UHLER and MRS. GETTY DEAH MISS KIMBALL Dean of Women AltD A D M HI I S T R A T IV E ASSISTANTS Dr. Heiges, Dean of Instruction, was a key figure in making a facile transition from war- to peace-time education in the college schedule. He deals chiefly with the needs for teaching preparation, under which come credit evaluation, courses of study, and departmental organization. Since 1917, Dean Whitmyre has guided the men of the student body with his wise and sympathetic advice which is greatly appreciated by those who have come in contact with him. He is the advisor of the Student Council and head of the Social Studies Department. MR. DAVIS Director of Student Teocfiing DR. HALL Assistant Dean of Women MR. SCHUSTER Bursar MISS ESCH Registror DR FILE Central Treasurer of Campus Organizations MR. WOODRING Treasurer of Student Cooperotive Association Miss Florence B. Kimball, now in her eighth year at Indiana as the Dean of Women, has approximately eight hundred girls under her guidance and counsel. In addition, she sponsors the Resident Women ' s League. That she is interested in the creative as well as the social development of the students is shown by her participation on the Creative Arts Committee. Her friendly nod, interest in personal problems, and charming personality have been an inspiration to the students. Dr. Dorcas Hall, a newer member of the executive administration, assists Miss Kimball with advisory and personnel work. Besides acting in an advisory capacity in the functioning of the Y. W C. A and the Non-Resident Women ' s League, she sponsors the Vesper Services held every Sunday evening in the John Sutton Autitorium. She is also an interesting and popular faculty member of the Social Studies Department DR. HEIGES Dean of Instruction MR. BEARD Assistant to the Dean of Instruction STUDENT COUNCIL The Student Council, numbering eighteen members, is composed of the presidents of the Senior, Junior, Sophomore, and Freshman classes, presidents of the Resident and Non-Resident Women ' s Leagues, a representative of the men students, and representatives from each department. Cooperating with the administration, it presents the students ' point of view on school problems pertaining to scholarship, school life, community relationships, and professional developments. As a member of the Associated Student Government of Pennsylvania State Teachers Colleges, the Council sent represen- tatives to an Association conference held at Cheyney State Teachers College in October. This year ' s business included revising the Consti- tution and revising the methods of selecting editors of the college publications. Dean Whitmyre is the sponsor. OFFICERS President Gretchen Gardner Vice President Donald Rubb OFF C E R S President Betty Jo Mitchell Secretary Zoe Ross ADVISORY BOARD The Advisory Board, set up by the Constitution of the Resident Women ' s League, meets bi-monthly in Miss Kimball ' s office. This organization studies regulations, makes recommendations, proposes matters to the League for consideration, and also acts on student disciplinary problems as they arise. It is composed of three seniors, three juniors, two sophomores chosen in general election, the presi- dents of both the Resident and Non-Resident Women ' s Leagues, and a faculty member. It is striving toward more participation in student government. Many cases brought before the Board this year were solved satisfactorily. Each year the Constitution is revised and any needed corrections are made. The Advisory Board is sponsored by Dr. Dorcas Hall. Seated: Boardman, Gamberoni, Novick, Gardner, Keller, Mehlman. Standing; Ferko, Truxall, Uhrin, Rubb, Whitmyre. Seated: Hall, Mitchell, Groff, Llewellyn, Ross. Standing: Dewey, Novick, Jenkins, Horger. Resident Women ' s League OFFICERS President Mory Margoret Novick Vice President Jane Nissley Secretory-Treasurer Mory Ann Swisher Sponsor Miss Florence Kimball The Resident Women ' s League is composed of all boarding women. Twice each month hall presi- dents, elected at the beginning of each semester, meet as representatives of the League to act in promoting social organization, in developing respon- sibility through student management, and in build- ing greater cooperation with the faculty and administration. The League is a clearing house for suggestions made by hall groups. Seated: Surgent, Folen, Sohioney, Swisher, Novick, Nissley, Griffiths, Kimball.

Veterans ' Memorial Committee At convocation, early in the second semester, students on our campus brought to Dr. Uhler and the student body the suggestion that I.S.T.C have seme sort of a memorial to those men who gave their lives during the war. At a meeting open to the entire school suggestions were given as to the type of memorial we should have, and a committee was appointed to investigate these ideas. To date Ihe committee has decided nothing definite. It will continue to function next year. Seated: Penney, Koboso, Woodman, Bell, chairman, Deller, Cornell. Standing: Strondberg, Reynolds. Page Eleven YMCA The Young Men ' s Christian Association, spon- sored by Mr. Paul Smay, meets every Wednesday evening in the Y room. A study of the various phases of Christianity included discussions led by guest speakers which helped to clarify many disputable topics. Three representatives from the chapter en the campus were sent to the World Christian Movement Conference at Carnegie Tech in October. YWCA The aim of the Young Women ' s Christian Association is to develop each of its members spiri- tually, socially, physically, and mentally. This was promoted in many ways: through monthly meetings, morning watch services, evening snacks, teas, the inspiring Burning Altar service at Thanksgiving, and through representation at the Student Christian Movement Conference at Carnegie Tech. The sponsor of the YWCA is Miss Mary Cruber. ERSKINE CLUB in an effort to create for the college students a home atmosphere, the Erskine Club of the United Presbyterian Church had as its theme this year, Christian Fellowship. This was carried out through regular Sunday morning class meetings, bi-monthly play nights, and parties at the homes of members and at the church. This year, the club, under the sponsor- ship of Dr. Clinton File, had seventy-five members. LUTHERAN CLUB The outstanding achievement of the Lutheran Club this year was the organization of a division of the Lutheran Student Association on campus. The thirty-five members of the club under the leadership of Miss Aagot Borge met regularly every Sunday morn- ing. The activities of the year included sending a guest representative to the North Atlantic Regional Con- ference of the LSA, a welcome party in September, and a spring party. METHODIST CLUB Once a month the Methodist Club, numbering forty members, meets in Fellowship Hall of the Methodist Church. Under the sponsorship of Miss Lola Beelar, it has endeavored to bring Methodist students into a closer fellowship with each other and with the Church. With this as their aim, the monthly parties held in the Church social rooms included a September get-acquainted party, a Hallowe ' en party, a Christmas cookie-bake, and an Easter tea. An outstanding event was Dr. Hiel Bollinger ' s visit during Spiritual Enrich- ment Week. PRESBYTERIAN COLLEGE CLASS The Presbyterian College Class, under the direc- tion of Dr. B. H. Dimit, meets every Sunday at 9:45 in the East Room of the Church. The study this year was concerned with applying the teachings in the Old Testament to the present-day world situation. The activities included a September get-acquainted party, a Sunday morning pre-Christmas breakfast, a Valentine party at which they entertained the Lutheran Club, a Hallowe ' en party, and a St. Patrick ' s Day party to which the Hebrew students were invited as guests. NEWMAN CLUB The Newman Club was organized in 1927 to foster spiritual growth, to encourage high scholarship, to promote friendship, and to stimulate whole-hearted cooperation in college activities. The present group became acquainted at a spaghetti dinner held at the College Ledge. This year meetings of the open forum type were held the second Monday of every month in Leonard Hall. Activities of the year included a theater party, several communion breakfasts, and a spring party. This organization of one hundred-thirty mem- bers is sponsored by Miss Leola T. Hayes.

SUPERVISING TEACHERS The supervising teachers, under the direction of Mr. John Davis, give to students at I.S.T.C. comprehensive training combined with practical experience for students wishing to fit themselves for active work in the field of educa- tion. Underclassmen observe demonstrations of teaching situations, while seniors receive guidance in teaching methods. To make possible an ideal teaching situation where the student teachers are aware of the problems of the field, the college has a well-equipped Laboratory School. The inspiration given by a capable supervising teacher, along with the integra- tion of subject matter and the theory of teaching, has a definite effect on the kind of a teacher the student will become. EDUCATION The Education Department, one of the most important departments in the college, touches every student, it furnishes the groundwork for the professionalization of teaching in all fields, regular or special, offers a broad liberal education, and gives the contact with reality which student teaching affords. The psychology work, the testing programs of the college, and the Psycho-Education Bureau function under this department. The Laboratory School gives students the opportunity to develop educational policies and put them into practice. This school and the college are very closely related, thus establish- ing the most effective relationship possible. Page Fourteen ELEMENTARY EDUCATION MR. BEARD Director of Division The fact that one-third of the entire student body, including a large number of the freshman class, chose the elementary educa- tion curriculum this year indicates a growing recognition of the values and satisfactions to be derived from working with children. The first two years of the elementary program are designed to give the future teacher a broad background for instructing in kindergarten-primary, intermediate, and rural schools. The final two years are devoted to professional courses and to student teaching. The Elementary Club is comprised of all elementary educa- tion students. The Club ' s activities, including both professional and social functions at the Lodge, were aimed at contributing to the cultural, social, and professional advancement of the members. Mr. Ralph M. Beard, the former director of this division, was replaced by Miss LaVerne Strong during the second semester.

The broad background and specific knowledge necessary for such teachers can be obtained by completing satisfac- torily the required courses and by developing thoroughly the individual ' s major interests. The students may specialize in one or more of the following fields: English, geography, languages, mathematics, science, and social studies. In addition to the students who are regularly enrolled in this division are many others from special fields who qualify for certification either as majors or minors. In this way, all the students on the campus are enrolled at some time or other in one of the many courses offered. This year, the division was happy to welcome back many veterans. ENGLISH The English Department provides opportunity for a student to form an acquaintance with types of literature and their connection with the social and intellectual life of the times and to develop his powers of expression for literary or professional use. The department also aids every student in the college through the Speech Clinic, which aims at speech per- fection for all prospective teachers. This year Dr. Rhodes Stabley resigned his position, while Dr. Joseph Meconnahey and Mr. Thomas Berry joined the staff. Mr. C. C. Jones is acting head of the department. Seated; Norton, Mccdonald, Board- man, Perkins. Standing: Meconnahey, Eerry, Jones, Head of Department. pfl B. .:i HHDHHHHHHI H IHHiilMI I roy l r K Z f Pflfl r ' ' i flH Bieghler, Head of Department Boyts, Zink, Acting Heed of Department FOREIGN LANGUAGES The major aims of the Foreign Language Department are the preparation of teachers in the various language fields, and the presentation of those languages and the cultures they represent to the non-specialist who wishes to broaden his general education by some immediate contact with them. The rising demand for people with such knowledge is attracting a larger number of students to this curriculum. To fulfill the demands, courses have been opened to all who are seeking certification in this field. Dr. Edward Bieghler, whose position as head of the department was taken by Mrs. Bieghler while he served in the Armed Forces, has returned. GEOGRAPHY The Geography Department functions principally in the Elementary, Secondary, and Business Education Departments by presenting fundamentals needed by children for under- standing of peoples, by providing secialists to present geography on the secondary level, and by interpreting geographic problems pertinent to the business world. Due to the increased number of students majoring in this field, the Alpha Omega Geographers were active again this year. This honorary fraterniay endeavors to in crease interest in geography, in teaching it, and in encouraging more advanced study. The Geography Department welcomed back several of its former students this year and said good-bye to Mr. Paul Boyts, who resigned his position. As a result of their extensive travels, many veterans have made interesting contributions to class discussions. Dr. Norah Zink is the acting head of this department.

Littlefield, provides the college students and faculty with both serious and recreational reading. The browsing shelf on the first floor is very popular, providing light and pleasant reading material. The new rental library, steadily growing larger, offers current literature at a minimum rate. + MATHEMATICS The Mathematics Department has continued its efforts to develop teachers who know both the subject matter and how to teach it in elementary and secondary schools. Classes have been enlarged by veterans who have returned to resume their studies. Mr. Leroy Schnell is again with the mathematics staff after serving in the Naval Reserve. Miss Joy Mahachek is head of this department. Page Eighteen Seofed: Miller, Heod of Deportment, Hamblen, Timmons, Ober. Standing: Ellenberger, Sutton, Shaffer. PHYSICAL EDUCATION Indiana offers a program of athletics and physical educa- tion which attempts to combine the maximum of athletic recreation with a minimum of formality. In addition to athletics, the department requires students to take a year of hygiene and a year of first aid in order that they may deal with health difficulties in an intelligent, responsible way. The increased number of men students has brought back active participation in intercollegiate sports. Supplementing this is a voluntary intramural program in which many students partici- pate. Mr. Robert Timmons has returned to the Physical Education staff after completing his duties in the Navy. The head of this department is Mr. George Miller. SCIENCE In our post-war world science has taken on a new impor- tance. In the more advanced courses, students discussed the theory behind the atom bomb and the possibilities for its use in industry. The Science Department reaches practically every student in the school through its fundamental courses, such as botany, zoology, and physical science. In addition to this, cadet nurses were given a thorough training during the first semester. Many improvements in the laboratory equipment increased the opportunities for practical research Dr. Thomas Smyth is the head of this department. Seated: lams, Emmert, Smyth, Head of Deportment, Brennemon, Solberg- er. Standing: Dimit, Bell, McKelvey. l tt e Xhieteen --I SOCIAL STUDIES With more emphasis than ever before being placed on current events, the Social Studies Department has been of greater interest to many students this year. In preparing teachers, the department trains students to become keenly aware of the importance of current events and the origins of present-day happenings as well as to produce teachers well- informed of past history. During the class periods both politi- cal and social issues are discussed, and the basic causes of present-day problems are considered in the light of past h ' Stcry. The department sponsors the Inter-Collegiate Con- ference on Government and the International Relations Club. Mr. W. M. Whitmyre is the head of this department. Seated: Wallace, Hall, Belden.

An outstanding event was the installation of a chapter of Delta Phi Delta, National Honor Art Society This is the first honorary art fraternity on the campus The Art Club, composed of all student and faculty members of the department, functions principally as a social group. In addition, however, it is a federation of clubs, includ- ing a Printing Club and a Commercial Art Club. The Jean R. Mcllhaney Award for Excellence in Fine Arts is presented by this organization to an outstanding junior or senior. Another award, the Kate Lacy Award for Outstanding Art Service, is presented annually to a junior or senior by the department. Mr Orval Kipp is the head of this department.

Geraldine Row 2: BUSINESS EDUCATION The Business Education Department, which occupies the entire ground floor of the Arts Building, is directed by Mr. C. G. Hill. It aims to produce highly trained commercial teachers who will use their best efforts to improve the field. Students working in comfortable classrooms equipped with typewriters, mimeoscopes, dictaphones, mimeographs, comp- tometers, adding machines, and files and cabinets are typical scenes in the department. A Junior Chamber of Commerce, organized in connection with the department affords oppor- tunity for departmental unity through public discussion on current popular topics applicable to the work and frequent social events. The fall outing, Willard Home Christmas party, and the spring outing were a few of the events where the students and faculty members of the J.C.C. broke away from routine classwork and displayed their various abilities. Page Tii enty-tioo HOME ECONOMICS The Heme Eccnomics department, directed by Dr. Opal Rhodes, recognizes the relationship between life m the home and our ultimate social progress. The students put to practical use the knowledge obtained through the study of sociology, economics, art, physical and natural science, and psychology. The Home Economics Club sponsored many activities including a revival of the Merry-Co, a dance for the JLiniors and seniors. On March 30, a tea was held in recognition of the naming of the two Home Management houses, one in honor of Ellen Richards and the other in honor of Louise Stanley, both outstanding Home Economists.

International Relations Club The International Relations Club was organized under the auspices of the Carnegie Foundation for International Peace. The purpose is to give students the opportunity to discuss the problems of international importance and to main- tain a broadmindedness in forming opinions. Membership in this organization, which is sponsored by Miss Ethel Belden, is by invitation. This year open forums were held to discuss present-day political problems. The new service projects, initiated last year, included an assembly program entitled Implications of the Atomic Bomb Other activities included the initiation of new members and a spring banquet. Intercollegiate Conference on Government Each year several delegates are sent to the Annual Con- vention on Intercollegiate Conference on Government, held at Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. The purpose of the organization is to enable students to acquire a better knowledge of the way in which our state and national governments operate. This year Indiana sent eight representatives to the Convention. James Penney, a delegate from Indiana, was chosen speaker of the Assembly. Other delegates were Geraldine Zeigler, Janet Mullen, Betty Ann Sheriff, Mary Boarts, Robert John- ston, Edward Pooler, and Joseph Bona. Mr. C. M Johnson is sponsor of this organization.

Selected Characters, characters; that ' s all I ever meet. Yes, we certainly do have some characters on campus, but because of their outstanding personalities, the students of I.S.T.C. have chosen these eight people to represent our student body. Perhaps it was their stock sayings or witty remarks that impressed us, or maybe it was their friendly smiles and will- ingness in being good friends that captivated our hearts; but whatever it may be, these people definitely have well-rounded Audrey Whitman Jeanne Boardman Melvin Uhrin Donald Rubb Page Twenty-eight In till ' vole III llii nilii ' c sliiiinil liiiilv ♦ • personalities. Each individual has a different sense of values; therefore, he will naturally look for and find different quali- ties in his classmates. These eight students are the outgrowth of their development of personality. I.S.T.C. ' s personalities for 1946 are staunch individualists. They have contributed much in our bull sessions and activities and school scholarship, and by this, made outstanding names for themselves on our campus. Cretchen Gardner Lisa Polman Eleanor Wilson Leslie Marietta Page Tiucnty-ninc Betty Jo Mitchell Marjorie Lewellen f ecudieA an the QampMA Do you remember that freckle-faced, pidgeon-toed, toothless girl who sat directly in front of you in the third row in sixth grade — the one who invariably blushed when you caught her eye? Well, perhaps she still sits in the third row in your general psychology class, but no longer will she be recog- nized by those characteristics. The freckled face has been transformed into one of smoothness and beauty. No longer do her well-controlled feet trip over Jimmy Jones ' legs, and her teeth are now all in and even. The students of I.S.T.C. have Jeanne Smith I ' tlgt ' Thirty Betty Lee Helen Berner chosen eight girls for their outstanding beauty — perhaps it was because of their eyes or their hair or a smile or beauty within. We all have a sense of beauty, and we know that a thing of beauty is a joy forever. As our girls hurry to classes or leisurely walk down to the Dell in their casual traditional sweaters and skirts, we are aware that beauty and brains mix, and mix well, at I.S.T.C.

The campus looked more beautiful than we had last remembered, perhaps because we hadn ' t seen it for such a long time. Some of the familiar spots had already taken on a few aspects of the fast approaching fall. All of us had come back to start the new term. Did I say all? Sorry, didn ' t mean to say exactly that. All of us came back except those girls who had graduated the previous spring. Believe me, their departure left a large hole in our midst, but the remaining Alpha Sigs were determined to carry on. With this thought foremost our year started out with a bang at an informal get-together held at Margery Beck ' s cottage. That was all that was needed to get everything off to a fine start. We entertained our rushees with the usual fall party. Other activities included a Founder ' s Day luncheon, a Christmas party, a Mother ' s Day luncheon, and a Senior breakfast. The formal rush party was held at the Indiana Country Club. Then came that fateful night of pledging with each rushee biting her nails and pacing the floor, wondering what was going on behind those closed doors. But those wonderful new pledges were worth our worry! Now, alas, the year has come to an end. We are ready for baccalaureate, commencement, and another enjoyable sum- mer. The events of the year are but a memory. To some Alpha Sigs these activities will be their last college memories. We ' ll be seeing all of you next fall — well, almost all.

Mrs. G ' s offspring showed real Christmas spirit by doing social service work. At the annual Christmas Party the girls wrapped many gifts for a group of poor children instead of exchanging gifts with each other. The packages were delivered on Christmas Eve. During the year our attention was directed toward another social service project, contributing toward the Pine Settlement School in Kentucky, our national project. At an informal get-together we learned many things from Dr. and Mrs. C. P. Davis, who told us about their experiences at the settlement school. Soon January came around and the rushees were bustled to the Tau Cay Ninety Review — the informal rush party — and it was a huge success! With a new semester came new pledges, and this year, a new patroness. It was not long until the social calendar provided us with an extra special date — the formal rush party in the form of a Mardi Cras — done in Tau fashion. With spring came silence period, and that fateful night of pledging. We are proud of our pledges! They make beds so well. Alas ' The end of the year came in sight. The election of new officers, Mother ' s Day tea at our own Mrs. C ' s, and the picnic for graduating sisters, given by the new pledges, highlighted our last two months. Fond memories we ' ll never forget and a feeling deep inside which means more than works could ever say — this is what Alpha Sigma Tau means to us.

Activities started officially with a get-together at the home of Dr. Perkins. After hashing over sum- mer vacations, plans were discussed for an open letter to the alumnae, collecting salvage for O ' Reilly Hospital, and Conclave in Philadelphia next August. The first major item on the calendar was preparing tubercu- losis seals for mailing. Next came the annual Christmas party and gift exchange. In odd moments, many pounds of leather scraps and other materials for the therapy wing of O ' Reilly were collected and shipped. For the first time since the beginning of the war the Panhel- lenic Dance was held, and the Delts, both actives and alumnae, were there in full force, the largest group represented, January brought more snow and the informal rush party — taffy pulling, games and dancing. Then came the end of another semester with exams, grades, and party lists to Miss Esch. In March the Beta Belles and alumnae entertained the fresh- men at the opening of the Rainbow Room of the Delt Roof. Famous personalities were introduced to the guests as they toured The Land Over the Rainbow. Hilarity, dancing, highly original refresh- ments and souvenirs made the evening complete. The biggest event of the Spring was the approaching Conclave in Philadelphia with the First Province as hostess. Plans for a dozen visitors, in addition to three delegates, were completed. Proud of her efficiency record. Beta planned, hoped, and dreamed of winning the lion ' s share of the awards. The year closed with two time-honored activities: the Mother ' s Day Tea on the afternoon of Swing Out and a farewell breakfast to the seniors, at which time the Recognition pins were presented.

Fall also brought back to us our beloved Miss Mary Muldowney, who had been a National Music Advisor in the U SO In November, Mrs. Ruth Norton, Alumna Visitor for the second year, brought with her Mrs. Hazel McRee, president of our Pittsburgh Alumnae Chapter and an Emily Gates Award winner. Several special meetings and a tea were held in their honor. At Christmas time there was the Panhellenic Dance and much cooperation on arranging dates. With the New Year there began a landslide of events — the informal rush party at the Ledge, exams, new schedules for second semester, a switch in student teachers, more rushing, and Saturday night dances with a lot of men for the first time in three years. Then, there was pledge night and cur wonderful new little sisters. It was wonderful having someone to sweep the floor and run errands again; pledges were very accommodating — or else! On April 13 members, pledges, sponsors, and alumnae met with Tri Sigmas from Clarion at the Founder ' s Day luncheon with our Pittsburgh Alumnae Chapter. A Week-end at the Waldorf couldn ' t have been more fun than ours at the Roosevelt! We got little sleep but had much fun and excitement. At the end of the year we looked back with many smiles. But there are also a few tears when we remember that some are leaving us. However, we know the bonds of sisterhood will reunite us often through the years.

The prexy called twenry peppy Thetas to order on Thursday evening in September to collect their hearts, minds and ideas in planning a successful year. Yes, and within a month, we pledged two super kids. Then came the delightful Panhellenic Coffee Hour in October, where we met that lovely group of new freshmen and transfers. One Friday evening, late in November, the Thetas all got on board The Atchison, Topeka, and the Santa Fe, to head for Harmony Hangout and the informal rush party. Quite an evening with loads of fun and food. Activities — activities — one affair led to the next. Miss Wallace was hostess at a Christmas theater party that featured all the girls sobbing at Rhapsody in Blue at the Manos. After the movie, we had refreshments and sang Christmas carols at Miss Wallace ' s home. With the second semester came the pledging of another gal! On March 9 grass skirts were swinging — oops, hips were swingin ' — at a Hawaiian formal rush party where a grand group of freshmen had a wonderful time. Rushing like mad for another week, and than to Silence Week, when we couldn ' t associate with our freshman buddies. But we didn ' t mind when bidding night, March 21, came around and we greeted our thirteen pledges Pledge duties started the next day and lasted a week What a hectic week! At the Founder ' s Day Dinner on April 5, the freshmen put on an outstanding program, showing the rest of the group that they could do their stuff. The Thetas ' activities came to a grand finale with the Mother ' s Day tea, a senior event, on May 1 1. OFFICERS President Jean McDougall Vice President Irma Lewis Secretary Marilyn J.

Six new members were initiated at services in October. The annual fall banquet was November ' s highlight, with Mr. Webb giving one of his inimitable, incomparable, untitled after-dinner speeches. In keeping with the policy of alternating between professional and social meetings each month, January was devoted to a review by members of general principles of bookkeeping, the use of practice sets, and taxation. March found the student and faculty members twirling spaghetti at La Prima ' s. For April ' s get-together a question- answer discussion on consumer education in relation to the business curriculum was held.

To strive for closer relationship through coordinating activities common to all groups and to establish standards of excellence along every line of sorority endeavor are the main functions of Panhellenic Association, In October, freshmen and transfer girls were entertained at the traditional Coffee Hour, an after-dinner social event, which gave them an opportunity to become acquainted with all the sorority women, their activities, and their sponsors. The Panhellenic Dance on December 19, with music by Benny Burton, was the first since the war years. During the traditional dance, the queen and her four attendants added to the festive entertainment in a ceremony around the decorative wishing star.

I) I K 1 K T E II 1 S Many of Indiana ' s students can remember the evening in ' 43 when a dance was given for approximately 100 of our college men who were leaving that night to join the armed forces. It wasn ' t a gay dance, for there were tears in many eyes. And when we cried, Hurry back!, we did not fully realize that many would not return until almost three years later, and that some would not return at all. But now a large number of men have re-enrolled or enrolled for the first time in our school, and Indiana is begin- ning to take on a pre-war aspect. Because of the large number of returning C. Is, Mr. Leroy Schnell, a member of the mathe- matics faculty and an Ex-Navy Lieutenant, was placed in the position of Veterans ' Counselor. These men were not long in getting adjusted to books and campus life. We saw them at the dances, down at the Dell, and strolling over the campus with our co-eds. But their social lives did not interfere with scholastic achievement. Their grades were the envy of many. On the whole the scholastic averages of the veterans were higher than other students of this collge We salute these men. They did a grand job during the war and they ' re doing a grand job during the peace.

The requirements for membership, which is by invitation, include a high scholastic standing, excellent character, and a sound professional attitude. With the return of many veterans this year, the member- ship was increased to nineteen active members and two pledges, William Curley and Les Marietta. The year ' s activities opened with a spaghetti dinner held at La Prima ' s followed by a theater party to welcome the returning veterans: Daniel Schell, Jim Penney, Bill Cornell, Deane Bergman, Bob Johnston, Roe Cunningham, John Metz- ler, Steve Shuster, Leonard Colelli, Curtis Ickes, John Balog, and Fred Stokes. The fellows and their dates really had a grand time renewing old acquaintances and making new ones. During the first semester Pi Chapter was happy to wel- come Mr. Jim Parks into the fraternity as an honorary mem- ber. Mr. Parks, a former consul to Ethiopia and the Near East, invited the Taus and their girl friends to a turkey dinner at his rustic home to show his appreciation for this honor. The Taus entertained prospective pledges at the Col- lege Ledge on April 4. Brothers Balog and Stokes really outdid themselves in preparing a delicious baked-ham dinner with all the trimmings. After Easter vacation the period known as Hell Week began with the new pledges, Glenn Shope, Victor Bohince, John Tortella, and Bill Colesar, undergoing the traditional test of the fraternity. It will be a good many years before they will forget their night out. The following week these pledges became full-fledged members at a formal initiation ceremony. At the last meeting, the officers for the coming year were elected and installed. Plans to open the house at 257 College Avenue were discussed. Having completed a very successful year, the Taus are looking forward to next year when once again the neon sign in front of their house will welcome them to their college home.

With this simple statement as its theme, the World Student Service Fund sponsored its eighth drive, from November 26, 1945, until November 30, 1945. Miss Nelle Ayers of the Laboratory School was sponsor of the Drive this year and Cecelia Rutledge was chairman. The following committee chairmen were appointed: Natalie Slagle and Betty A. Lemmon, canvassing; Mary Belle McCowan, clerical; and Ann Folen, publicity. WSSF was organized in 1937 to aid Chinese students in continuing their education. The organization spread rapidly and extended its services to Europe in 1940. It operates under three guiding principles: (1) It is non- political (2) It is non-sectarian (3) It is international and inter-racial, helping students of at least thirty-seven nationalities and many races. The money gathered was used to provide food, hospitalization, homes, and books. Direct monetary aid was given to needy students, and jobs were provided to make these students self-supporting. ISTC ' s goal of $1800 was not quite reached. However, sixty per cent of the money contributed went directly to the WSSF and forty per cent to the Community Chest. The drive opened with a program including Dr. Kautz, a well-known and well-liked speaker from Pittsburgh, Eleanor Wilson and Leslie Marietta, and Willie Means ' Orchestra. The canvassers under their respective captains, Nell Shaeffer, Jane Lyons, Janet Mullen, Lois Roach, Jane Moder, Norman King, Ardelle Nicholson, did a grand job in presenting the problems of their fellow students. After Christmas vacation the Drive was again opened for those who desired to pay their pledges. The money was then sent to New York, and from there to Geneva, Switzerland, where it was distributed to the most needy countries. In this way the students of our campus have lent a hand of cooperation to their fellow students around the world.

Mix with the theme of School Days and sift in quantities of photos alternated with several thousand words of reading material. Sprinkle all this with faculty advice. Result? — a 1945-46 Oak. The staff was headed by Joana Joseph, editor-in-chief, and Stephen Ferko, assistant editor These two attended to the planning of the yearbook and the executing of these plans. The theme, School Days, we believe, typifies the feeling that has prevailed during the past year. The pictures, taken by Mr. Ted Hoyt (whom you have seen running hither and yon in the fall, winter, and spring) cover every aspect of campus life; the editorial copy was proofread by Dr. Reba Perkins and Mr. C. C. Jones Mr E. J. McLuckie, before he left for Europe, advised Helen Berner on the problems she encountered as business manager, and Mr. Ralph Reynolds sprinkled his helpful advice over the entire job. That, then, is a pretty complete analysis of this year ' s Oak. But the final test lies with you.

Farrell Piigc Sixty-one  «« •-- INDIANA ON THE GRIDIRON Due to a lack of manpower, football seemed out of the question at Indiana in the fall, but a small group of die-hards full of love for the game prompted the scheduling of two games. Only 22 men reported to Coach George Miller at the opening practice session, and after two weeks of drill, the same 22 men donned the scarlet and white uniforms to face a powerful Slippery Rock squad. Using the traditional Miller single-wing and paced by veteran Bill Cutler at the signal calling spot, the Big Indians drove down to the Rockets ' five- yard line before the attack stalled. From there on it was all Slippery Rock as the green team drove for four scores, one in each quarter. The final whistle found the Maroon and Slate on the short side of a 26-0 score. Cutler and hard driving Jack Stewart were the spark-plugs of the sputtering Indiana attack. Up front. Gene Schmucker, Glenn Kaufman, and Clem Boyce were the mainstays of the thin red line. The second game found the locals operating a new system, the famed T, under a new coaching staff of Mr. Miller and Coach Bob Timmons, just returned from the Navy. W J Row 1 : Strandberg, Chalot, Boyce, Moron, Cutler, Ewer, Koufmon. Row 2: Agnello, Truxal, Gerocimos, Hess, McNeol, Fair, Meyer, Schmucl er. Row 3: Marietta, McKnight, Henl ;el, Curry, Lieb, Polanofsl y, Miller, Coach. found the new T baffling and the Big Indians gained consider- able yardage until they neared touchdown territory. In the shadow of the goal posts the attack failed time after time, and when a fleet W J baci skirted right end for six points, it meant the ball game. Henkel and Chalot gained consistently on quick opening line plays, and Cutler ' s passing to Strand- berg and Chalot kept the Big Indians in the running until the final whistle. These were the only games played. The record isn ' t impressive, but the players tried and a little of the pre-war spirit came alive for a time at least Twenty-two men who refused to admit that they weren ' t good heralded the return of the good old days, and soon Indiana will be represented on the gridiron by teams reminiscent of the champs of ' 41 - ' 42.

The lack of returning lettermen greatly hampered Coach Tim- mons ' efforts in producing a team equal to those of former years. Beginning the season with a team composed of return- ing veterans and seventeen-year-olds, the Indians faced a tough fourteen game schedule. The opening game against California proved that the Indians lacked sufficient college experience. With a starting five composed of Cutler, McKnight, Ewer, Bernabei, and Chalot, the first game ended in a 52-58 setback. Journeying to Clarion, Indiana suffered its second defeat by a 30-41 score. Two more defeats at the hands of Slippery Rock and California respectively ended the first semester schedule. The second semester brought to the school a host of returning ISTC basketball players. Led by Paul Deane, nine new faces appeared on the basketball squad before the end of the season. Among these were Dick Everhart, Lou Schendowich, Dwight Lewis, Ab Turley, Eddie Gnupp, Tiger Broffman, and Casimir Jurk Jurkowski. The Indians opened the second semester by playing host to Clarion and avenged an early defeat by a 39-34 score. The fifth defeat of the year was at the hands of the high scoring Rockets of Slippery Rock by a 69-3 1 . Playing his first game of the season, Jurk Jurkow- ski led the Indians to their second win of the year. This was at the expense of Shippensburg by a 49-42 count. The next opponents were a host of giants from Lock Haven and due to this advantage of height the Havenites were able to eke out a 33-34 win over the locals. The Indians again returned to the victory trail with a 54-55 decision over St. Vincent. After a slow start, the Indians began to roll in the third quarter and Page Sixty- inur were never ended But not to be outdone by the Big Indians of Indiana, the Bearcats came back the very next week to take a 32-34 win in a game played at Blairsville. The Indians looked like a championship team as they walloped the Red Flashes of St. Francis 60-33 in a game played on the Syria Mosque floor at Altoona. A highly improved Lock Haven team stopped the Indians by a 61-34 score. The Havenites took an early lead and coasted through the last two quarters for an easy win. A hard fighting Indiana five took the floor against Ship- pensburg and proved that their first win was no fluke. After a slow start, the Indians began to hit their stride and wound up with a 60-54 win With orders from Coach Timmons to close the season with a win, the Indians proved their ability to carry out orders by again walloping St. Francis 57-43 on the local court. i D FIST PLAVIK SEASON C ' mon, Lou! Whoops! didn ' t quite moke it. In the bosket! All eyes on the boll! GYM CLASSES Gym classes are an integral part of the program at Indiana State Teachers College. Their purpose is to improve the physical condition of every student through athletic endeavor and to improve each pupil ' s mental tone by offering a respite from the labors of the class- room. An able staff of physical instructors headed by Coach George Miller directs these activities. Coaches Miller, Timmons, and Schaeffer have charge of the men ' s gym classes and Misses Hamblen and Ellenberger direct the girls ' activities. In addition to the usual program of gymnasium work, the gym provides an opportunity to acquire definite athletic skills. Coaches Miller and Timmons give the boys able instruction in basketball, softball, etc Mr. Schaffer, who joined the staff this year from Dubois High School, is a specialist in the teaching of swimming and wrestling. The young ladies of ISTC have the same able tute- lage as the men in the milder sports. Some of the most skillful players supplemented the gym classes by belong- ing to intramural teams. American folk dancing was the object of much feminine endeavor in the gym as the second semester advanced and the reusing strains of Turkey in the Straw gladdened the hearts of many old residents who thought the good old days were back. Inside the gym the fairer sex of ISTC twirled in the stately patterns of the waltz or swirled through the intricate patterns of the gavotte. Gym sports at Indiana serve to promote good physi- cal health and so to stimulate increased mental activity. A fit body and an alert mind are prerequisites to efficient teaching. Coach Miller and his staff keep this end in view in teaching gym classes. Tell us a story. The wrestling team. Expectance! Page Sixty-six GIRLS ' SPORTS The purpose of the girls ' physical education program is to provide Indiana women with sufficient mechanical skill and knowledge to enable them to maintain a rational program of exercise; to develop in them an appreciation of athletic games; and to impress upon them the value of good health and physi- cal efficiency. At almost any time of day one can see Indiana ' s co-eds, clad in brown and tan gym suits, engaging in some form of physical activity, whether it be a strenuous game of hockey or a dainty minuet. Each woman is required to take gymnasium during each semester of her four years, but this is by no means considered a chore. Many girls supplement the required program with a voluntary intramural program. On Monday nights contestants in the volleyball or basketball tournaments appear on the gym floor ready for a fast game. In these games there is always a good showing of the keen skill and ability the girls have reaped from their gym classes. Whether the teams win or lose they all have the pleasure of playing lively games that enable them to gain sturdy bodies while having grand eve- nings of fun. An innovation this year were the weekly dancing classes, in structed by Peggy Wampler, a student well qualified for such teaching by much previous dancing experience. Strenuous exercise! Who ' s excited? Ice cream, soda water, gingerale, pop — Pagf Sixly-scren Movies at the Lodge. Swing It! THERE ' S m n WIITER SPORTS . . . The Winter Sports Club, sponsored by Mr. M B. lams, opened the year with a nature hike. Dr. Thomas Smyth pointed out the glories of nature to the students and lots of fun, healthful exercise, and fresh air were enjoyed by all. From there on, it was a case of a lot of interest in winter sports, a fine place to enjoy them — the Lodge. But alas and alack- — no snow. Only one frolic in the snow was enjoyed by the followers of Mr. lams, for the unpredictable Indiana weather forced the cancellation of any other trips which were planned. As a substitute for the outdoor activities of the group, Mr. lams hit upon the idea of roller-skating. Many parties of this nature were held at the Indiana Roller Rink and the hardwood resounded to the racket of the ISTC students. Winter sporters turned out to be roller skaters. The height of the club ' s activities was reached in the club ' s party at the Lodge. Good food, dancing, and a good time signalized the event. The Winter Sports Club closed its season of activities with a roller skating party at the local rink, and the members are looking forward to a better season with more snow in the coming year. Mr. lams leads roller-skating Page Sixty-eighl . . . l ll IV niYSIClL ICTIVITIES FIRST AID All Students at Indiana are required to take the Red Cross standard course in first aid. The first-aiders, after learning the fundamentals of the course, are given practical problems involving these fundamentals. Some of the solutions to these problems are not exactly expert, but a patient ' s never been lost yet ' Upon completion of the course, a certificate is awarded. LIFE SAVING The Red Cross course in life saving is open to all students who have passed the college swimming test and have mastered the basic strokes. A portion of the semester is spent on water safety, resuscitation, and forms of rescue, while the remainder is devoted to actual practice. Many students completing this course have received summer employment as life guards. WOMEN ' S VARSITY I To be a member of the Women ' s Varsity I is the aim of every girl who is actively inter- ested in sports An I is awarded to those girls who have earned a thousand points in some intramural sports such as volleyball, basketball, and mushball. This year the letters were given to the girls in a spring convocation by Lisa Polman, president of the W V. I. Bathing beauties. W. V. I. members. Page Sixty-nine Anne Brown Cultural Life Series It ' s always a big night on campus when there is to be a Cultural Life program in our beautiful auditorium. There ' s the usual rushing to finish work, hoping that either the Dell or the Little Store will be open after the program. Every year the Cultural Life Committee, a group of students representing every department, chooses from a mass of numbers recommended a well-rounded, interesting group of programs. In March, we were fortunate to have a concert by the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra under the baton of Fritz Reiner. The audience was entranced by the thrilling strains of Brahms, Wagner, and other composers. This was just one of the fine entertainments of the season. The whole series consisted of: Percy Grainger, pianist, and Leona Flood, violinist — the audience thoroughly enjoyed Mr. Grainger ' s playing and his personality and admired Miss Flood ' s skill. Anne Brown — a charming young woman with a beautiful soprano voice. Fulton Lewis, Jr. — his stirring lecture was thoroughly enjoyed by the audience. Neff, the Magician — Indiana ' s own professional magi- cian; he had some weird tricks, but we certainly did like his show. Foxhole Ballet — it ' s no wonder the C.l. ' s were crazy about this group. Emery Darcy — a tall, handsome tenor from the Metro- politan Opera. Virginia Sale — it was a rare privilege to have such a fine character actress entertain us. Already an equally worthwhile series has been chosen for next year. These programs not only provide good enter- tainment for the students and the community, but also are an inspiration to students who, as a result, seek more cultural enjoyment wherever they go.

After two years of inactivity, the Marching Band was reorganized by Dr. Cheyette in time to play for the football games. Composed of over one hundred men and women, the College Choir, under the inspirational guidance of Miss Concert Band String Quintette Mixed Chorus m SWIIIE HEIST Mary H. Muldowney, who returned from duty with the U.S.O., has thrilled many with its singing in Convocation, Union Serv- ices, and radio broadcasts Due to the return of many able instrumentalists, both the College Symphony under the baton of Mr. Stitt and the String Orchestra directed by Miss Pearl R. Reed gave admirable performances before the public in radio broadcasts and concerts. The Men ' s Glee Club, com- posed of sixty men, and the Women ' s Chorus have also given many concerts under the direction of Miss Muldowney. The String Quintette made several public appearances in recitals and various programs. Women ' s Chorus Men ' s Glee Club Page Sevenly-ici ' cit THE SWH The Swan by Ferenc Molnar made up one of the most interesting experiments in drama ever carried on here at I5TC. Dr. Abigail Boardman directed this play with an all-girl cast. It was a period play, so by the use of wigs and costumes, appearances were altered to fit the parts. As a result of many hours of exacting rehearsals and under the excellent direction cf Dr. Boardman, each character protrayed her part, convin- cing the audience that male roles could be handled by good women actresses. Page Set ' imty-eight sTiiEKT sri ' : i ' ; The first dramatic presentaticn of the year was Street Scene, by Elmer Rice. This comedy, involving some fifty-odd characters, is the story of a family living in the tenement dis- trict of New York City. Through the play we were given a glimpse of the lives of two young people striving to rise above their environment. We saw racial prejudice at its highest peak and poverty at its lowest ebb. This successful production was directed by Dr. J. E. Meconnahey of the English Department. SENIOR PROM On December 1 the Class of ' 46 held its first formal dance since 1942. The seniors danced to the music of Pewee Lewis from 8:30 to 12:00, except for the Ring Dance wherein the class hoped to establish a tradition for Indiana. The Prom was a complete success from the pinning on of those corsages ' til the last good-night was said. SOPHOMORE PROM The Sophomore Class held its formal event of the year in Recreation Hall on November 10. Over a hundred couples presented to the receiving line danced to the music of Billy Lawrence and his orchestra. The decorations carried out the Candyland theme of the Prom. During the intermission Dr. and Mrs. Uhler entertained the class officers, committee chairmen, and the faculty who were in attendance. FRESHMAN PROM Benny Burton and his orchestra fur- nished the music for the Freshman Prom which was held in Recreation Hall on the night of February 2. The theme Sweetheart Swing was carried out by decorations representing the Valentine season. During the specialty dance the class entertained and prizes were awarded. The Grand March which was held through a large paper heart was a picturesque moment in the gay evening. Page Eighty PANHELLENIC DANCE Soft lights, sweet music, pretty girls, handsome men, lovely decorations, a beautiful winter night — what more is needed to make a perfect evening? ' And the Panhellenic Dance was perfect from start to finish. Benny Burton ' s orchestra was a bit late in arriving because of the heavy snow, but after the dance was started, it was a complete success. The theme of the dance was Stars — a theme which was carried out in the decorations. Couples danced around a huge scintillating star which was placed in the center of the floor. The main event was the Star Dance, dur- ing which sparkling stars were passed from couple to couple. Among these stars were four red ones and a blue one. Mabel Bowman, who was the possessor of the blue star when the music stopped, was proclaimed the queen of the ball Those girls holding the red stars were named as the members of her court. CHRISTMAS DINNER The annual Christmas dinner is an event that the student body looks forward to with eager anticipa- tion. This year a few of the delicious items on the menu were brown roasted turkey, luscious red cran- berries, golden brown sweet potatoes, and hot rolls. After the playing of the chimes, a brass ensemble played Christmas carols just outside the dining room door. When they concluded, the string quartet con- tinued with many well-known carols inside the dining room. This music made the banquet much more impressive and gave everyone a bit of the Christmas spirit. The dining room, decorated with long-needled pine trees and colored lights created a perfect atmos- phere for this occasion. After singing many Christmas carols which were led by Miss Mary Muldowney, everyone gathered in Recreation Hall where a program was presented by each class in the Music Department. The Boar ' s Head, enacted by the Men ' s Glee Club, was a highlight of the party. Home Ec. students ' Christmas Party. Charocters from the Hallowe ' en Party.

AiD MORE SENIOR S PS Ptige Eighty-six TIIK SE I(IK n U Four years of school days at Indiana sped swiftly by for the Class of 1946. Memories aplenty flood over us as we gaze back across the years — sad memories as well as pleasant memories, all fast becoming a part of our past, a part that can be recalled in the years to come by a name, a face, a voice. Our purpose, our aim, our goal during these years has remained unchanged: to be an inspiration to other boys and girls who will tread the same paths of knowledge we have trod May our little successes spur them to greater achievement. Believing that social events are important in college life, we managed to keep a balanced program of work and play throughout our four years. Of course, when Joe College became G. I. Joe at the close of our freshman year, socializing in the usual sense became merely something to remember. We filled our extra hours with Red Cross work. Stamp and Bond sales, and writing to our Joes. And then suddenly when we became seniors, the war was over. C. I. Joe returned to become again the Joe College of yesteryear. Proms and parties became the vogue. Football, basketball, wrestling, tennis, and baseball were back to stay. Indiana began to look and feel and think again as it had in 1942.

Lawrence S Stitt So these people are Juniors. The Junior Class has put in a full year of fun and study, joys and trials. Former mem- bers of the class who had taken time out to help settle the international quarrel came back to resume their interrupted studies. These fellows were greeted warmly and it didn ' t take long for them to readjust to campus life. The social activities of the class began in the winter with a snow party. At least that is how the calendar read. Junior Snow Party — College Lodge — January 5. The weath- erman failed to provide snow, but they had a party anyway. The class sponsor, Mr. Stitt, acted as chief cook for the crowd. The gang ate hamburgers, potato salad, and drank cccoa until they thought they would burst. Then the phono- graph was set up and the jitterbugs had a field day. After everything was over, all agreed that the party, even without the snow, had been a huge success. Page One Hundred Siii ' li (ii ' iico! lu h Poise! The second big social event for the Juniors was their prom, the theme of which was Twilight Twirl. The com- mittee fulfilled the theme by decorating Recreation Hall with stars and blue lights. Then for four hours happy Juniors and their dates danced to the music of Benny Burton ' s orchestra. There were a great many service men at the party, of course, but their numbers were almost balanced by men in civies. Things were getting back to normal. The first three years are over and Juniors have many fond memories to retain. Next year will be the climax for this aggressive group but they will always remember the good times of their third year. It is with a feeling of keen regret that we see our jolly Junior year coming to a close and find ourselves facing the Senior year.

This can ' t possibly be our second year at ISTC! Why, it was just a couple months ago that we wore pigtails and name cards. The time really has gone fast! But it really is our second year and we have let the rest of the school know it. Although we ' re not quite upperclassmen, we ' re still not Frosh. We started off with the first formal prom since the men left for the service. This was a Candy Ball. The plan was full of cleverness and originality and the envy of the other classes. For days before this occasion, posters of candy canes, lollypops with couples dancing in their midst were seen in Clark Hall, John Sutton Hall, Leonard Hall, and the Arts Building. Ever since that big affair on November 10, every- one has been talking about its complete success. On March 23, a Spring Out was held at the Lodge. The Ledge was appropriately decorated with green and yellow candles and daffodils. Part of the evening was spent dancing until the food was ready, it didn ' t take more than one Kum and get it to have everyone swarming over to the tables of food. True to our reputation, gobs and gobs of food was downed. Then, with everyone too full to do any strenuous work, a Truth and Consequences Program was held. Because Steve wasn ' t a very good balloon blower, he was escorted to John Sutton Hall to serenade the girls. They must not have Page One Hiindi t d-two Weigle, Boyd, Ferko, Ross T II i: S (I P II 11 II u s appreciated his efforts because he had his spirits (and clothes) dampened, which required a quick change of clothes before returning to the Lodge. Don Rubb looked exceptionally good with an egg custard pie being tossed at him. Mr. and Mrs. Risheberger (Poppa and Momma of the Sophomore class) helped us all in having a good time and really enjoyed them- selves too. So, the year passed. It was wonderful to welcome back in our classes a great many returned veterans A large number of these veterans entered our Sophomore Class, which added more talents to cur already lengthy list. But, we didn ' t spend all cur time at parties, dances or welcoming C.l. ' s, A quick glance at the Dean ' s list for both semesters and a look at the personnel of the honor societies will reveal many names of sophomores. Also, when it came time to elect officers for next year, almost every organization on campus elected at least one Sophomore to office. The Sophomores are a rapidly progressive group, eager to learn, quick to enter into activities, and always ready for fun. Never let it be said that the Sophs aren ' t a jolly good bunch of people. Next year, when we become mighty Juniors, once again we will prove to you our good qualities.

File They call themselves the ' 49ers. They outnumber every other class on campus. They are active and jolly. They make up the Freshman Class. When school opened, a group of wide-eyed, nervous freshmen looked toward the coming year fearfully. It was all so new and different to most of them. What would this year hold for them! ' Would they succeed here at I.S.T.C? Throughout the year, this class made itself known on campus. The first startling thing they did was to make up a class election complete with band, campaign speeches, posters and parades. They held a grand election, and they got the vote of almost every member in the class. Of course. Freshman Customs were held. For two weeks the girls wore mismated socks and hair ribbons, pigtails and skull caps. For variety there was glamour day and baby day. The fellows were in on all this, too. They rolled up their trouser legs, wore college dinks and sang for the upper- classmen. The climax of customs came on the last Friday night when a parade of Freshmen, led by a group of paja- clad boys, marched to the Indiana courthouse where they cheered and sang, to the delight and amusement of the townspeople. Page One fi unjred-jour llliiil freiliilily! The big event of the year came when the class sponsored its formal party It was held around Valentine ' s Day. The Iheme of the dance was sweethearts, and they called it Swc heart Swing. On the big night, a representative number of the class appeared to dance to Benny Burton ' s music. The highlights of the evening came when the class president and his date led the grand march. The unique feature of this march was the breaking of the huge red and white paper heart by the leader as he led the group through it. This is the beginning year for these ' 49ers. They have succeeded in making themselves known and already their mark is beginning to show. They have class spirit and interest. This first post-war class has already had its numbers increased by returning fellows. This has been a big year for every member. Next year they go on to be the sophomore class, but not one of them will forget this first year. It will mean to them the beginning of their future and the ending of the carefree days of high school.

The Customs Tribunal, composed of sophomores, enforce the regulations compiled by the Customs Committee and set up severe penalties for infractions. The newcomers were distinguished by their pert red dinks, matching buttons with their names, departments, and home towns printed on them, and red bow ties for the boys. This is the upperclassmen ' s opportunity to enjoy an exciting week at the expense of the less fortunate freshmen. The boys had to rise bright and early to shine their shoes, roll their trousers, and rummage through drawers for white SOX in time to appear for breakfast every morning, using the North Door to enter John Sutton Hall. Time had to be allowed for doffing their dinks to the all-important upperclass- men and to address them respectfully as Mr. or Miss. Campus cutting was not permitted, and dating or talking to girls were strictly taboo. Girls also had to attend breakfast every morning. Monday and Tuesday they had to wear pigtails, no make-up, and no jewelry. Upperclassmen had the right to demand that the girls curtsy to them whenever and wherever they might choose to ask for this expression of homage. All poetry lovers could take this opportunity to listen to a recitation of original poetry by any willing Forty-Niner.

He also had to sing the Alma Mater for any upperclassman. On Wednesday the boys entertained the onlookers with a ten-minute program in front of Leonard Hall near the foun- tain. The girls added color to the audience with their little- girl outfits, lollypops, and toys. Glamour Day on Friday was climaxed with singing and cheering on the gym steps. The following Monday evening the entire school was invited to attend the show produced by erring freshmen in the auditorium. Must be Q sophomore near! Vi ,(. ' (■ One undred-seven KEEPIifi UP A pick-up at the Del Since September, 1942, Indiana has cooperated with several hospitals in western Pennsylvania by teaching young women the basic sciences in nursing. The last group of Cadet Nurses to take pre-clinical training at Indiana completed its course here in January, 1946. The Cadet Nurses at Indiana were busy girls. Their days were filled with classes such as microbiology, chemistry, anato- my, physiology, sociology, and nutrition. In addition to the twenty semester hours they carried, they were active in many campus activities. Although they had little leisure time, we often saw them down at the Dell for that pick-up, or relaxing at the after-dinner dances in Rec Hall. These nurses became familiar faces on the Indiana campus. We miss them, and believe that their futures hold promise. Gotta make that eight o ' clock class! Seeing what makes ' em tick.

So too, with a typewriter.
