PHI MU FIRST ROW Alice Beckman, who has her hair marcelled since she has a school. Alice is the reason the triangle boys prefer Phi Mus. Helen Johnsons also has a school and had her hair marcelled for the picture. Caustic. IxttiSE Streiby of Chicago. Louise has a few freckles and doesn't mind them a bit, even if she is a girl. Ruth Freyermutii, one of the W. A. A. girls. She is planning to secure her letter sweater by hiking to Denver this summer. Ori.ean Wei.i.ons is the name of the youngster next to Helen. She is not the Phi Mu mascot, she really belongs to that club. A very distinctive miss, a haircut even more so. Ferol Ki.u.m, who landed her Sig Ep heart while still a freshman. Most Phi Mus can't do that in four years (and keep the hearts), so Ferol is unsual. SADIE Rlgc, who has her own car and is strong for education except the books. Mary Scranton, who won a beauty contest at West Chester once. SECOND ROW Mary Love Farnam. who is proud of her red hair. Mary Love decided to be a dream girl, too. Helen Milligan, May Queen, and sole possessor of a Theta Nu pin. Some of the sisters arc working mighty hard to keep up with Helen, but the Thetas hang on to their pins almost as hard as the Phi Delts do. WlLMA I.atiirop, who talked the cameraman into letting her stand by Helen. I.uckilv, Wilma had just finished a sentence as the camera went off. Naomi Breuer. who has found the location of Saunders school at last. Naomi likes to tcast, but never does anything worse than change the cards in laundry cases. I.ois Bowser, who is glad that Morning Sun is on the way to Muscatine. Edith Rarer, who aspires to imitate Gilda Gray. Anyway, she chews gum more vigorously than any chorine ever dared. Has been engaged, but swears never again. Anna Mary KlRCHBR, guardian angel of the Wesleyan dream girls. When Kracker dreams of Wesleyan, she dreams of Phi Mu, Sig Ep, and Theta Nu. THIRD ROW Gertrude Frax.ey, whose haircut gives away the fact that she is from Missouri. Jessie Lauger, who is the surpressed desire of many a man. Jessie is just a peach of a girl, jolly and gay. Her biggest failing is just being too nice to people. Adei.f. Green, faithful treasurer and grade maker of the chapter, who is rather bothered at the ordeal of having to hurry to the photograph gallery. Mercedes Basciie, the reason some of the old actives have grey hair. Mercedes is from Chicago, etc. Wilma Cor nick is also learning of Denver, by degrees. Nina Miller, who isn't applying for schools. Nina has unlimited possibilities, if her line were more consistent, or less so. She sings well. I here wasn't room for the other Phi Mus, and when the girls drew straws, they drew the short one and had to stay off the picture. 194

PHI DELTA THETA Left to Rr'ujhl FIRST ROW Dale Caris, who is bashful, but willing to learn. Dale avoids the co-eds. but when one of them seriously gets her eye on him, goodbye Dale. Tuffy Turner, who has his weakness in school now. Lester Uffi.eman, next year's football captain and Lon Chaney II. I’ftie is quite stable. Chris WACLER, who made himself smile for the picture. He has been solemn and grown up ever since his trip to Donnelson. A. C. Gerth is the fifth chap whose face is the very image of peace and innocence. He really is blossoming out quite beautifully, as all he needed was that high school influence. His ambition is to be wild. A. C. helps in solving the chapter transportation problem. Henry Rradsiiaw, who hails from Des Moines. Hank is like the proverbial sailor. SECOND ROW Paul Phelps, who has seen better days when there was more material around. Paul does wish those Pi Phis wouldn't razz him when he has his annual Phi Mu date. He thinks the Pi Phis think the Phi Mus think they can get him. Mark Aldridt.e, who is extremely eligible. Maurie, who feels the sun rising and setting in the Needham family. A shark in shallow water. Notice how Maurice is starting to push himself into the front row. Too bad the picture snapped before he reached his position. I.eland McCo$H, who is little but mighty, so it seems. He finally achieved his ambition of acquiring a Phi Delt pin. Has dated Orlean and Peg, so he must rate, but it is hard to tell. MahlOX Goetz max, who can look innocent without half trying. Has somewhat overcome his social rating complex. THIRD ROW Bill Turner, whose moustache took an awfully poor picture. Bill is really not so clever and sophisticated as Esther Franks gives him credit for being. Jim Gray, who is a silent fire-cracker, wrapped up in town material. Also an invaluable aid in solving the bus situation for the brothers. Elmer GottSCHALC, the Phi Delt prexy, who has had a rather difficult year keeping his boys together. His motto is “Call ’em late, an’ snip ’em cold.” Bruce Rohde looks the picture of innocence, but it is merely one of contentment. Mark Carnahan, a product of Mt. Pleasant. Has the reputation of “The Glorious Apollo,” but reputation only. Dick Lee, who is the exceptional and remarkable Phi Delt. A Ben Hur of Wesleyan! Dick is a wonderful manager though, especially when it comes to dances. His ambition is to learn how to smoke. The other brothers, including Ike White, couldn’t take time off to come for the picture. Believe it or not, they were studying, as they are sincere in their effort to get the long-lost scholarship cup. Page 196
