FQIQEWQRD Sing a song of sixpence-sing a song of honorl Whatever song we've sung, in your esteem, in the following pages, we care not, if you enjoy it. Whether it was lack of pennies from heaven that incapacitated, sit-down strikes that interfered, or lack of interest that ruined, causing three pot- less years, we are not certain, but we are certain that it is delightful to renew the Boiling Pot tradition. ln fact this renewal has been a magnificent obsession to many staff members and students. However hazy the magnificence may be in black and white, the spirited endeavor to weave into a magnificent tune the campus life, dreams, and ideals is present. We hope you like the modern melody. ' DEDICATICDIXI 'A song ot honor, a riproaring cheer . . . What could adequately express the spontaneity ot Hermon l-l. Severn, our beloved Dean, to whom we joyously dedicate our yearbook? We behold and follow him in wise spiritual advice, athletic pep meets, and linguists' class hours. We worry and wish with him. We chatter and laugh with him. But always we hold him in honor - a dynamic personality, whose leader- ship, triendliness, and blessings will remain with us forever. l5J CONTENTS ' FACULTY ' CLASSES ' ACTIVITIES 9 T ATHLETICS ' ADVERTISING Co-editors: Ruth Demme, Ruth Schroeder Co-business managers: Karl Lambooy, Donald Simpson Subscriptions: Richard Kennedy Photography: Charles Krill u Campus Capers x ac 4 rl sq?

QRGAN During moonlit evenings of last September, vibrant tones from Stetson Chapel proclaimed to passers-by that a campus dream had come true. The Hoberi Memorial Organ was being installed. Since 1932, when the Chapel was completed, College friends had wished tor an organ. Very shortly after the death of the late President Allan l-loben, it was suggested that a fund be started for an organ as a memorial to him. On Sep- tember 28, l936, seventeen months after this sugges- tion had been rnade, an audience listened spellbound while lvlr. l-lenry Overley played the dedicatory program on the keys. Slight as may have been the acquaintance of many ot us with Dr. l-loben, our glorying in musical master- pieces, as interpreted by local artists, has made us at least momentarily akin to his spirit. joys unending will enrapture the campus as long as these keys are alive with beauty.

His friends, associates, students, and bird hunters miss his expert and inspirational attention. His garden and conservatory continue, somehow, without him. And there remain with us echoes ot his stately step and his deep- throated voice, and visions of his handsome white head and his fine erect figure -- all splendid and rich with character.

With the declaration of a holiday for the ' ' ' ' h ll d inder of the afternoon the gift was announced in the dining a , an rema , there was scarcely a waiter whose trembling hands did not add the clatter f d ed plate or knife to the shouts and cheers of one hundred and o a ropp , twenty near-hysterical students. The most needed addition to the College quadrangle was evolving from a desire into a realization! A spirited pep ' C ll ho meeting was held to honor the two alumni of Kalamazoo o ege w se generosity was to fulfil the dreams of those who lived in the inconveniences of old Williams and those to whom Williams was the one blemish on the beauty of the campus scene. Plans were laid immediately for the construction of the new residence, Aymar Embury ll of New York City, architect of the chapel and library, was appointed to design the building, a committee visited many institutions to inspect dormitories and secure information on the most modern college residences, and the firsit piece of sod was turned over with a shiny new shovel beribboned in orange and black satin streamers, and wielded by act- ing-president Charles T, C-oodsell, in the ground-breaking ceremony on the morning of April 2l, l936. During the long process of construction, the building was visited daily and nightly by students curious about the latest progress, the newest addi- tion, or where l am going to live. At last, after much anticipation and oft-postponed movings, the men refrained from attending classes for an afternoon and transferred their possessions to their new home. Not a few pangs of regret twinged the hearts of the Williamsiites as they made their last farewells, but the excitement of the life to come took precedence over any regrets at leaving Williams. Finally on the evening of january 20, 1937, the men of the residence gathered in the spacious lounge of the new building to dedicate Hoben Hall, named in honor of late President Allan l-loben. An open house followed when the men proudly displayed the house charter and pledge signed by ninety-three charter residents, their rooms done in yellow, blue, biege, or green walls with built-in dressers and bookshelves, bright flowered draper- ies, and furnished in comfortable cherry furniture. The well-equipped kitchen, the intricate buzzer system, the two game rooms in the basement, the pressing rooms, andthe green and yellow powder room for women guests received their share of praise, also. The eighty foot lounge covering the entire middle section of the main floor has white walls which are contrasted by dark floors and rich burgandy draperies, A series of ached lfitil .1 A f.,. rt -.IQ v ,, uk - iw ff 25 if 5. , 5 if t Y Y N ,- J. we ,- 212 ' 5 f fy-if 4 L ibs' yr..

Massive leather chairs and davenports and other tasteful furnishings contribute to the restful atmosphere. Since their occupation of the new residence, the men have sponsored their annual house informal, initiating the lounge as a ballroom. Parties sponsored by literary societies, as well as informal gatherings, are being held regularly in this room. l-loben Hall is carrying on many of the tradi- tions of Williams Hall. With the destruction of the old House of Purity the days of water fights and mattress burning fade into memories.

GSTUG O T441 t l e Sencjfe a la President Arlie Todd, who has taken pride in executing his campaign promises of promoting bigger and better school spirit and social functions and supporting the Boiling Pot, has performed well in directing a progressive campus year. Besides attending the immediate faculty-student desires, it broadened College contacts by joining the National Student Fed- eration of America. ln March, the senate sent delegates to Lake Forest College, where there was formed a new mid-western NSFA conference which will advance debating, dramatic, and musical activities among ten schools similar to College in size and purpose. By joining the NSFA the senate assisted in securing debates with Oxford University of England and with a touring team from Otago University of New Zealand. Buzz l-lornets . . . Sting Albion on the cardboard orange squares was obeyed as were the other weekly pep tags, until the Kalamazoo eleven was proclaimed champion MIAA team. Captalizing on the school spirit aroused by these victories the senate presented one of the fullest social calendars in many years, topping it with the annual Washington Banquet, and sharing it with high school students at all-college day, May 8. The Friday student assemblies had the largest attendance in the last four years. , Perhaps the most interesting project advanced by the senate is the proposed faculty-student committee which will lead to the students' having a greater share in arranging chapel programs and will enable tlie students and faculty to settle their mutual problems together.

The Alpha Sigs also started a tradition when they spon- sored the first Leap Year dance. ' AIPPE' Sigma Delta was formed Among the most important functions on the society's program, in addi- tion to regular literary meetings, were the alumnae meeting, with a program presented by members of the alumnae, the alumnae tea foll Homecoming football game, the spring formal, and the Alpha Sig Soiree, an annual spring meeting to which the members of the other two womeifg, societies are invited. owing the Since the number of members in the women's literary groups is kept at approximately an equal number, the Alpha Sigs, along with the Kappas, emerged with fewer new members in their ranks, than did the Eurodelphians last February, following the anxiety of closed meetings, bidding, and formal initiation dinners. The members are: Pauline Bohls, Ruth Bonfoey, Eleanor Fadden, Kathryn Farwell, Dorothy Finch, Cleora Gagnier, Ann Gibson, Evelyn Grosa, Martha Guse, Annie Hall, Loretta Harrell, Sarah Hill, Mary Louise Holmes, Helen Kramer, Suzanne Little, Ann Locher, Mary Locher, Emma-lean Luder, ludith Meyer, jamesine Pollock, Dorothy Powell, Alice Roosevelt, Dorothy Ross, Sadie Sahler, Ruth Schroeder, Ruth Sinclair, Sidell Slosberg, Cornelia Smith, jean Smith, Leona Snyder, Ruth Spencer, Mary Stroud, Rebecca Surine, Genevieve Taggett, Elizabeth Tuller, Arleta Turner, Margaret Wald, Betty Walker, Virginia Walton, Mary Louise Warner, Alice Whitaker, Doris White, Dorothy Young, june Zickgraf.

Meetings of the group were held in old Kazoo Hall ' s on Oakland Drive until Bowen Hall was erected, affording new society room . Remembrances of these way-back-when meetings were vividly presented to the l937 Euros last fall when they were entertained by their alumnae in the newly redecorated Bowen Hall room. This get-together marked the renewal of active members' acquaintances with their alumnae, who have faithfully assisted their college sisters in teas, formals, and luncheons. The Euros inaugurated a custom followed by all the women's societies today, when they held a commencement luncheon in l9l6. Another Euro tradition is their athletic prowess, incarnate in Mary Cordon lthe latest find, a dead eye at basketballl who helped them win the championship in basketball. Loving cups are coming to them for their tennis and volleyball victories, also. The Euros: Harriette Barton, Marilyn Barton, Bette Billingham, Wilma Burger, Ruth Cary, Dorothy Chapman, Betty R.

T501 CHAMPS OF INTER-SOCIETY BASKETBALL FACULTY TEA KAPPA Pl Kappa Pi literary society was founded in l906, when the number of women enrolled in College increased to such an extent that it was deemed unwise for all of them to belong to one society. ln its early existence Kappa held pseudo-prayer meetings in Williams I-lall. l-lowever, these prayer meet- ings turned into dancing parties - that is, until the freshman on lookout at the door signaled danger, when loud and lusty singing shook the building. Ardent debaters and Mandolin Club enthusiasts were those youthful Kappas. Alumnae of the society, who always offer much assistance to the present members, are honored each year at the Kappa alumnae spread, a custom which has enjoyed popularity since l9l-4. Other annual affairs which shine on the Kappa social program are the Birthday meeting, honoring the found- ing of the society, the spring formal, the Mother's meeting, the alumnae luncheon, and the sunburned Kappa house parties. The Kappas: Maxine Bails, Patricia Braddock, Bette Clements, Priscilla Crum, Mary Den Adel, Dorothy DeSmit, Ruth DeSmit, Ann Draper, Marie Dufner, Ruth Gildersleeve, Carol Gilmore, Barbara Gleason, janet l-lardy, Eleanor johnson, Beth Kelly, Kathryn Kuitert, l-ean McAllister, Barbara McK.instry, Martha McLain, Betty McLay, lane Morris, Florence Niffen- egger, Malry Palmer, Frances Ring, Mary lane Rosebrook, Ada Rutz, Anna- belle Seagley, Shirley Shale, lane Sidnam, janet Sisson, Betty Sorenson, Maude Southon, Irene Stilson, Barbara G.

They are usually represented on each of the varsity college teams. Roller-skating parties with the Alpha Sigs and Kappas and a dance with the Euros in the lobby of Hoben Hall marked a very active social program, which culminated in the spring formal at Gull Lake Country Club. Mike Gary, who told of his experiences in the football wars and'President Cole were among the speakers at the literary meetings. The Centuries were the first society to include faculty men in their membership. The student membership of Century Forum doubled last February when new men flocked to its ranks.

Programs of the year included joint meetings with the women's societies, a highly successful scavenger hunt lwhich turned up everything from rail- road spikes bent at right angles to birds' nestsl, smokers, and various meetings with outside speakers. Among the last were Sheriff Struble, who displayed the county's armament, Howard Chenery, who spoke of his' war reminiscences, and Ciuy Hart, who told about his trip through England and illustrated his talk with moving pictures.

Under the leadership of john Hoben, the de- bate team pursued a very extensive and varied schedule, meeting other teams from all over the world, One of the highlights of the season was the debate with Oxford as pictured here. Stopping in Kalamazoo on their good-will tour of the United States, Mr. Kay-Shuttleworth and Mr. Green- wood presented a glimpse of the young Englishman and some of his thoughts andf characteristics. This important event was topped by holding the re- gional convention of the Pi Kappa Delta, national debate and forensic fraternity, on campus duringthe first week in April. Approximately l75 delegates from an area covering Michigan eastward to Maine, representing nineteen colleges and universities, were housed in the dorms. Professor john Hoben, coach of forensics at Kalamazoo College, was honored by being elected secretary of the re- gional Pi Kappa Delta. Other important events were a debate trip through Ohio and a debate with New Zealand representatives. There were disappointments, too, for in the Michigan Inter-Collegiate Speech League tournament, Kalamazoo suffered its first loss in league debating in six years. However, Robert Goostrey, student manager of forensics, was named President Of the State Speech League this year. Kalamazoo's debate squad was composed of Al Homoki, Logan COX, Robert C00S'frey, Orlo Burpee, and Don Simpson. Prominent this year in wome,-ps forensic activities were Leona Snyder, Elizabeth Tuller, BETTY Mel-aYf and lean Smith' 1551 PRlNTER'S INK The Kalamazoo College Index, boasting fifty-nine years of journalistic activity, has this year tried to inject life and pep into the weekly task Qf presenting the news. A new dress in the form of a modern type name plate and mast-head aided appearances a few weeks after school opened in the fall, while the second semester witnessed an entire change in the type used for heads, giving the paper a more modern appearance and making itqeasier to read. Throughout the year, the lndex has tried to avoid provinciality by print- ing stories concerning other colleges or world affairs, as well as editorial comment on 'current problems. One a month an alumni issue presents newsof the College family scattered over the face of the globe, while an open letter column has expressed student opinions. Lavish use of pictures ladding much to the worries of the business managerl has been tried as a means of livening up the paper and creating student interest. Several freshmen were added to the staff this year, and the annual frosh edition appeared on April 23, with Doug Benedict in the capacity of editor. A Members of the staff this year include: Robert Borkenhagen, editor, jollie Allen, assistant editor, jack Nuthall, business manager, Ruth Schroe- der, news editor, Stan Lane, sports editor, Ray Borkenhagen, editorial editor, and William Burt, circulation manager. Assistants in the business field are Kenneth Rahn and Raywood Blanchard, in the editorial department, Robert Buntaine, Robert Hotelling, Tom Walton, Arthur Heming, Walter Matkow- ski, Robert Henderson, john Braham, and Arlie Todd. Assistants in writing news and sports are Barbara C-. Taylor, judith Meyer, Frances Ring, Pauline Bohls, Priscilla Crum, Barbara R. Taylor, Margaret Conrad, Arthur Rankin, Marion Shane, Sidney Harry, and David Fry. Doug Benedict and jack Grabber supply features, while Robert Buntaine is proof-reader. V i561 I 'Q'f' 'Yfk 1 , P .,., t DYE OLDE REVIVAL One evening almost a year ago two Ruths and a Chuck buried them- selves in modern magazines and spun tales about angles and pictures and modern type that were going to be at their command in their i937 publish- ing adventure. The gallant Lambooy and Simpson had promised them a generous budget so theirs was the world to conquer. After nearly experienc- ing the life of fan mail openers lsuch popularity with engravers, printers, and paper suppliersll the staff, with the consent of the Board of Publications, took the momentous step of signing contracts for the publication of the l937 Boiling Pot, the first yearbook on campus for three years. The year before Arlie Todd, Ruth Demme, and Ken Davis had ventured to attempt a book as a junior class project but had failed because of their late start.

The brilliance of Mr. Overley's performance at the dedication program for the Hoben Memorial Organ and at the recital at which he played his clever suite, A Fellowship in Learning, threatened to outshine any other programs of the year, but the campus music box was full of specialtiegg a recital by Mr. Emory Gallup, a well known organist from Grand Rapidsg the joyous Christmas Carol Service, The Seven Last Words by the Col- lege Singers, declared to be the most beautiful choral work done on campus for years. C The most choice and unique music of the year was that to which Ernst Wolff treated College. For one week, during February, the students and faculty trailed the young German baritone, of operatic fame, to delight in his singing and personality. His broken English, his eagerness to please, his accompanying himself with his eyes closed are most easy to recall. There are always his recording of twenty-four songs of Robert Franz, as done by the Columbia Phonograph Company, that can be purchased to recapture the charm and vigor of his interpretation of the Lieder song. T Novelties of the music year were the Women's Trio, lane Sidnam, lean Temple, and Suzanne Little, the l'Vlen's A Capella Quartette, Kenneth Davis, james Tolhuizen, Richard Wearne, and Robert Hotelling, women members in the band, request organ chapel programs. THE SEVEN 4 sung by the i591 RELATIONS CLUB When the International Relations Club returned to school last fall she found herself an organization of one member. Soon, however, a group of students desirous of promoting greater interest in current political, econ- omic, and social problems of the world gathered and the newly reorganized club blossomed forth. About twenty or thirty members meet twice a month on Sunday afternoon to discuss international affairs or listen to a speaker. Anyone who was interested was welcome to become a member. g In addition to hearing local speakers the club has had Donald C-rant, Scotch lecturer and authority on world affairs, and sponsored his four-day stay on campus. Mr. Crant's final appearance as a speaker on campus, was at his Sunday afternoon lecture to the I. R. C., pictured above. Robert Coos- trey is president of the club, lvlary Palmer, secretary, and Dr. Robert Cornell, faculty adviser. SCIENCE CLUB The Science Club is composed mainly of scientific minded students, largely majors in one of the sciences, but membership is open to any inter- ested students. The purpose of the organization is to further interest in the sciences, to increase knowledge of various scientific subjects, and to demonstrate new scientific processes and theories. No regular meetings have been held this year but the Club presented an assembly program and also aided in the science demonstration during the Olds Hall open house last winter. There are about twenty-five members in the group and the OffiC6FS this year are: president, Walter Cood, vice-president, Cus Moesseng sec,-e- tary-treasurer, William C-ood, and publicity chairman, Ray Borkenhagen. i601 INTERNATIGNAL , . , f f.

On this title roster repose three football championships, five consecutive track titles, one basketball and one golf championship, MIAA all-sporting trophy the first two years it went on the block, and field day relay titles for six' years running lget it?l. A peek at the records reveals that Barnard came here from Missouri State in' l925. During the war, he and his twin brother, Lester, were members of the Great Lakes Training School Varsity, which mopped up all mid-western and eastern opposition and then went on to win the Rose Bowl championship in I9l7. Dr, Allen STOWGI Kalamazoo's delegate on the MIAA board and varsity tennis coach, is best known to those off campus as a tournament director. He has probably run off more tennis and badminton tourneys A than anyone else in the State, outside of Detroit. His list of tournaments reads like a calendar: complete charge of MIAA field day tennis tournament, annual head of all- city tournament, director of first all-city badminton tournament, supervisor of an- nual Cazette novice championship play-off, and so on ad infinitum. Dr. Stowe so popu- larized his latest hobby - badminton - among students and faculty that, in the first all-college tournament this year, over forty names were numbered on the entry list. Recently Doc chanced to overhear an argument over the play-off of an inter- society tennis match that was rained off. I-Ie quickly settled the dispute, adding, This game has been played long enough so that there are certain rules to be fol- lowedf' A bysfander Oppgrfunely Chimed Allen StOWe, Chester Barnard lOe Newell in Yes, and 'Doc' knows them all. v JOE Newell freshman football coach and all MIAA tackle for I935, took up football this year from a new,slant -- the bench. Doing graduate work on campus, joe was selected by Barnard to handle the frosh affairs last fall. joe's- first coaching venture was a success from any stand- point. He piloted the yearlings to victory in both outside encounters and whipped the squad into shape for numerous scrimmages against the VHVSITY- I75I A HISTORY OF THE i937 COURT One has often heard the remark that a coach's job is a snap, but a glance over the basketball season which the Hornets completed sheds a different light on why coaches have gray hair so early in life. I The Hornets were having a game with the strong Wayne University five. lt had been a close game throughout. With two minutes left to play, the Kalamazoo boys were trailing 24 to 25. A Wayne player suddenly makes a break for the basket, he shoots and is fouled. The ball loops around the rim and falls through.- two points. A moment later he misses the foul shot, but the Wayne boys are 'ahead Z7 to 24. Then the Hornets come to life. With seconds left to play they get the ball and start down the floor. A Hornet breaks into the clear and the ball is in his hands, he shoots . . . and misses. Again we dig up the ball, a man is open on a fast break, he shoots - ??? and the ball trickles around the rim but drops off. Once more we get the ball - but there goes the gun, the game is losty Our team is facing Olivet for the first time of the season. A defeat will knock either team out of a tie for first place. Olivet surges into the lead. At the half she has a lO point lead. But just as the fans settle back to see the home cagers take a bad licking, the team gets clicking. Like madmen they pass and shoot. They creep up on Olivet. With two minutes left to play, the score is knotted 43 all. Both teams throw caution to the winds. They battle as though their lives are at stake. Suddenly in the rough play Novak gets off a shot and it swishes the net. A moment later the official's whistle sounds and the Olivet boys collect on a foul shot and go into a three point lead. With seconds left, a Hornet cuts under the basket and shoots . . . it goes squarely into the basket . . . but right out again. Another Hornet has followed the shot and he gets the ball for another try. lt looks good . . . it hits the rim . . . it lazily rolls around . . . and then drops off. The Olivet boys seize the ball and start down the floor again - the Kalamazoo cagers are not to be denied - a Hornet guard, playing his last year for the College, makes a herculean effort and intercepts the ball. Our boys start another frenzied effort for three points, but the gun stops them short. OU' b0YS TW to forget What has gone on during the past and they get ready for Albion. lf THGY can win all their games they can still tie for The title- But they cant get going.

Like a shot from a pistol a l-lornet bursts into the clear and shoots . . . it's good! We are ahead 32 to 3l. But there are nine seconds left to play.

The Euros maintained their monopoly on cham- pionships in vol-leyball, basketball, and tennis. Kappas rated second in volley- ball and the Alpha Sigs second in basketball. For the first time the partici- pants in these activities receive individual awards, according to a merit system. The Euros will receive the loving cups. This friendly rivalry was thrown to the winds - at times. Early in October the women were invited to join hot and heavy in a treasure hunt on the Old Indian' Trail. Their findings were a boudoir dog ihigh in a treei and a delicious roasted supper, as arranged by Eleanor Schaffer, Mildred Spitler, Barbara C. Taylor and Doris White. ln December the W.S.T.C. physical ed girls went wild with the College girls at the Kids Party in Tred- way Cymnasium. ln March the Western girls returned the hospitality by inviting the College girls to an evening of volleyball on their campus. On May l5, Kalamazoo representatives played tennis, ping pong, baseball, and other spring sports on Olivet campus with girls from the MIAA' colleges Albion College originated this MIAA women's meet last year.

A few contacts with the other and larger institutions of learning, both in United States and abroad, have but strengthened my faith in the Fellowship in Learning at Kalamazoo.

The very esgence of college life and the secret of its charm is this personal relationship r and teacher, and between between student and student, between teache teacher and student. But more than this, it has mean t for me ennobling association also with trustees, women's council, and alumni, truly an h f I exc ange o persona ity by what I may call osmosis of character, a com- minglingiof spirit. This has made my life in Kalamazoo College an adventure in the realm of spirit, the discovery of new minds, the appreciation of new personalities, and the formation of new and lasting friendships. lf there has been any contribution on my part to this colle e famil l'f ' h g y i e, it as been likewise in this realm of spirit, a modest attempt to contribute to what former Presi- dent Hoben so felicitously called A Fellowship in Learning a genuine respect for the personality of others, and a desire to make the campus a friendly place for all wfho might come within the sphere of its influence. This reverence for personality on my part may have seemed at times to have begotten reserve in the exercise of friendship, but at any rate the purpose has always been to make supreme the good of our college com- munity. And the conviction isinow present stronger than ever that this reverence for personality will continue to prevail among the members Of our college family. For President Cole has set forth the ideals of the College in terms of the new da continuance in this new age of change. y so aptly and so convincingly as to assure their My earnest hope is, as l retire, that this ideal may be realized in higher degree than hitherto and that this center of higher learning may continue to be noted not only as a place where honest, thoroughgoing intelleCfUal effort is emphasized and appreciated, but also as a place where fellowship built upon the foundation of sincere virtue in personal life shall continue to flourish on the campus amid the tall oak trees, and as time goes on gI'OWS stronger about the dear old Chapel, where friendships form within our hearts and mem'ries grow more dear.
