VIII CLASSES w CHAPTER ONE ADMIN ISTR T10 FACULTY AND STUDENT The school year 1947-48 will probably be recorded in the annals of the college as the period just over the hump,',' with a trend back toward normalcy reflected in an enroll- ment figure almost identical to that of the previous year. This fact did not lighten the burden of the Knox administration, however, for with Knox expanded to 30W over pre-war At left: President Brown and George Friske, president of the Student Council, map out an administrative program.

Brown, aided by Vice-President Harold E. Way and Deans Merritt H. Moore and Grace Smythe, ably administered the affairs of the college, re- ceiving excellent co-operation from the stu- dent groups on the campus. 1 7 Above: Mr. Seay speculates over the problem of admissions. Below: Secretaries for administrative of- fices are Mrs. Stene, Mrs. Farreau, Mrs. Swedenberg, Miss Strickland, and Miss Adcock. The director of admission, Mr. Seay, was busy again this year receiving and accepting applications from hopeful high school seniors interested in becoming students on the Knox campus. His main problem was selecting the new students from the numerous applicants. Unfortunately Knox cannot accommodate all the applicants who wish to gain admission. Mr. Seay spent much of his time visiting Illinois high schools where he interviewed future Knox students. A ln their offices on first floor of Old Main are the secretaries of the college. Their jobs consist of assisting the president, the vice- president, the dean, the registrar, and the director of admissions. Correspondence, sort- ing mail, recording cuts, filing, checking ap- plications, and the filing of transcripts are a few of the duties these women do to keep the college running smoothly. ADMISSICN S The establishment of the Lincoln Lecture- ship on American Civilization brought some- thing new to the history department this year. This course, designed to acquaint students with the society and culture in which they live, is ably handled by Dr. C. S. Boucher, who is new to the Knox campus. Dr. Boucher was formerly the Chancellor at the University of Nebraska. The economics department in- creased in popularity and as a result two new faculty members were added, Mr. Klimpt and Mr. Shipley. This is Mr. Klimpt's first year of teaching in this country as he just came over from Germany. Besides doing work in the economics department he also taught mathematics. Dr. Elder taught his last year in the philos- ophy department, for Dr. Elder is retiring from Knox. During his long stay at Knox Dr. Elder has served as librarian and taught English, mathematics, and philosophy. Above: Mr. Shipley, Mr. Willhite, Mr. White, and Mr. Klimpt of the economics department, Mr. At- wood, Mr. Hanson, Mr. N. Johnson, and Mr. Bell. Below: From the history department Mr. Newcombe and Mr. Muelderg Mr. Boucher and Mr. Elder, Mr. Roberton, Mr. Stipp, and Mr. Pletcher discussing current affairs. SCCIAL SCIENCE Above: English department members Mr. Johnson, Mrs. E. Wilson, and Mr. Davenport, Mr. Batell, Mr. Beauchamp and Mr. Evers. Below: Mr. Sherwin and Mr. H. Wilson examining a term paper, Mr. Stephens, Dr. Clare, and Miss Heren, the math professors. The English department continued to help many students across the hump of the Eng- lish comprehensive test. In Beecher chapel students were introduced to the Arts and Literature tutoring course by Mrs. Wilson. Mr. Evers joined the English staff this year. It might be noticed that the English depart- ment is the largest in the school. Courses of a wide range are offered to the students, they include freshman English, literature of all types, drama, writing, poetry, and the classics. Knox college and the mathematics depart- ment were sorry to hear that this was the last year on the faculty for a friend and a teacher who has served the college for forty- one years. Miss Heren is indeed a member of the Knox family. She was considered by faculty members and students alike to be one of the finest teachers in the school. Mr. Klimpt, who also taught economics, served as an addition to the math depart- ment. ENGLISH, MATHEMATICS 10 New evidence of the popularity of the modern languages was seen this year, partic- ularly by the increased interest and support of students for the German club and a re- organized French club. A monthly edition of a German paper on the part of German students has contributed to the success of the language department. Many social functions have resulted from time to time in these de- partments including outside spealcers, round table discussions, and moving pictures. A new course was added to the department for the music majors. It is a phonetics course designed to give a thorough foundation of Italian, French, and German diction. Miss Jefferies joined the modern language depart- ment replacing Mrs. Arnold. Bob Russell, a student teacher attending Knox, temporarily replaced Miss Coleman during the winter quarter. Miss Coleman was on a leave of absence due to illness. Above: Miss M. Wilson and Miss Kragness examine a French textg Miss Lindahl and Miss Jefferies in their office. Below: Mr. Poston and Miss Coleman look up a Spanish term, Mr. Brown and Mr. Adamec, heads of the modern and classical language depart- ments. l LANGUAGES E 1 1 Above: Chemistry, Mr. Neifert and Mr. Reed, Mr. Walton, biology, and Mr. Mutch, physics. Below: Mr. Wilde, Miss Bachrach, and Mr. Furrow. Mr. Bumstead and Mr. Bell discuss psychology. Miss Switzer is the school dietician. The large number of students entered in the fields of physics, chemistry, biology, and geology has caused an increase to be made in the actual seating capacity of the lecture rooms of the Science building. The science department was one of the few departments that had no changes in the faculty. Dr. Way once again devoted his full time to the physics department. In recent years Dr. Way has served as acting president and as vice-presi- dent of the college. However, he resigned his position so that he could spend all of his time teaching. Home economics was dropped from the college curriculum since its incor- poration was only a wartime measure. Miss Switzer is now chief dietician for both Whit- ing and Seymour halls. Psychology has not been placed in the social or physical sciences. The GALE has placed it on this page due to the picture ar- rangement. Mr. Bell is a new addition to the psychology department. NATURAL SCIENCE Poetry readings, musicals, concerts, recitals, and dramatic productions were enjoyed this year by both the college and the town due to the efforts of the art, speech, and music departments. The combined work of these departments led to the successful produc- tion of Otto I-iarbach's The Desert Song. Mr. Harbach, a Knox alumnus, was present for all of the performances. The history of the Knox Theatre was broken when the first matinee was performed. There were many additions to the music department. Miss Lundeen, Miss Prokop, Miss Parson, and Mr. Starkey all joined the department. Mr. Pyke of the art department accepted a position in town after the first quarter and was replaced by Mr. Peterson. Mr. Donnelly became the third member of the speech department. He was instrumental in the organization of a debating team which had a very good record. Mr. Donnelly took the team to the National meet held at the University of Virginia. Above: Miss Fischer and Mr. Pyke in the art depart- mentg Mr. Putnam, Mr. Donnelly, and Mr. Leland of the speech department. Below: Miss Winchester, Mr. Baylor, Miss Parson, Mr. Williams, Miss Prokop, Miss Lundeen, Mr. Weddell, Mr. Biddle, and Mr. Starkey of the music department. SPEECH, ART, MUSIC 13 Above: Mr. Richards and Miss Dana in the former's officeg Mrs. Albright, Miss Smith, and Miss Willey, the assistant librarians. Below: Dr. Headland, Nurse Sproul, and Nurse Von Goertz study Health Center data. The circulation of the library increased this year as the students made greater use of the library. Mr. Richards continued to add books to the eighty-thousand volume collection that is housed in Seymour library. The record collection expanded rapidly and the students became more acquainted with its value. The library was staffed by twenty persons. Fifteen are students who work on an average from eight to ten hours per week as clerks. Dr. Headland, Miss Sproul, and Miss Von Goertz are the staff of the Knox College Health Center. An insrease in the number of treatments this year is due to the encour- aging fact that many of these treatments were precautionary. All freshmen are required to take a medical examination. The athletic teams provided much of the activity at the health center with numerous strains and sprained ankles. LIBRARY, HEALTH SERVICE 14 vm Coaches Trevor, Saunders, and Turner again headed the Knox athletic department as sports led the extra-curricular interests at Knox. The spirit at Old Siwashv was greatly bolstered during the year by the for- mation of a new pep club, the Tyrants. The outstanding athletic feat of the year was when the Siwashers, coached by Mr. Turner and Mr. Trevor, upset the highly touted Law- rence team 19-l3. Miss Bielefeldt and Mrs. McLaughlin again directed a well organized and varied program for the women on the Knox campus. The girls participated in field hockey, basketball, badminton, swimming, bowling, and golf. The military science department was again commanded by Colonel Serff of the infantry. Colonel Serff, with his staff, operated the Senior Advanced Air R.0.T.C. program in addition to the regular infantry courses. The military department started intra-mural rifle competition this year in addition to the men and women rifle teams which had a successful year in inter-collegiate competition. I I Above: Capt.

ATHLETICS, MILITARY 15 Above: Ned Landon in the Alumni office and Miss Feclerspiel, the director of the dormitories. Below: Mr. Pennington, who is the college auditor. Mr. Mc- Clelland, who takes charge of all financial problems. Probably the busiest office in the school is the business office. It handles everything from tuition to a lost and found service. Mr. McClelland, the college treasurer, heads the financial dealings of the school. Mr. Pennington can be found almost any 'time working on college finances. He is officially known as the college auditor and assists Mr. McClelland. Upon the resignation of Ned Landon as publicity director, Mrs. Hoopes took charge of Alumni affairs and Rudolph Fiala ac- cepted the responsibility of keeping the pub- licity of Knox in high gear. Ned served until March 1, 1948, when he resigned to open a business here in town. The Alumni drive this year surpassed its goal of fifteen thousand dollars. Miss Federspiel was again in charge of all the college housing as the director of dormi- tories. , W, , l BUSINESS CDF FICE, ALUMNI OFFICE 16 . C CC To every freshman who enters Knox is as- signed a tutor, who is a member of the faculty. On the basis of the comprehensive examina- tions given the freshman, the tutor enrolls the student in courses that will enable him to achieve the goals of a General Education. This 'is also assisted by individual work with his tutor in preparation for passing the gen- eral achievement examinations covering the six areas of education: Arts and Literature, English, natural sciences, social sciences, for- eign language, and mathematics. Through this system of close faculty guidance, the student should be able to pass his six compre- hensive examinations before the end of the year. Mr. Muelder was chairman of the council this year, it was his task to coordinate the work of the tutors and to administer the tutorial program. He was assisted in this work by Mr. Poston, Mr. Bell, Mr. Furrow, Mr. N. Johnson, Mr. Davenport, Mr. Beau- champ, Mr. Crawford, Mr. Willhite, Mrs. Wilson, Miss Wilson, Miss Kragness, and Miss Smyth. Below is pictured the Council of Tutors: In the back row are Dr. Clare, Mr. Richards, Mr. Poston, Mr. Craw- ford, Dr. N. Johnson, Mr. Davenport, Mr. Beauchamp, and Mr. Willhite.

COUNCIL OF TUTGRS 17 STUDENT CGUNCIL l Members of the Student Council are Charles, Palmer, Wetherbee, Friske, Moser, Wensberg, Hahn, Rinella, and R. Peterson standing. Seated in front are Soucek, Lowe, Rogers, Martin, Kelly, and Beck. The year 1947-'48 was a busy and impor- tant one for the Student Council. Led by George Friske, the president, the council helped in handling the distribution of funds among the Athletic Association, the publica- tions, the theatre, and other campus activity groups. The division of funds is not the sole duty of the council, however. As the most important student administrative body, it sponsors social events, helps with disciplinary problems, supervises elections, backs Kampus Kapers and Flunk Day, and attends to other similar activities. The supervision of Homecoming is one of the most important duties of the council. Jim Moser was the chairman of the committee, and he and his assistants managed the ban- quet, house decorations, campus decorations, 18 and the Homecoming party. The social committee, with Margie Martin as chairman, sponsored the all-school social events of the year. The traditional Pump- handle, held the first week of school, was the first affair on the calendar and served as the mixer for faculty and students, Other important functions included the costume party, dances after basketball games, and dances in the gym with refreshments and open house in the Hearth. In the spring the Council officially joined the National Student Association. This is an organization composed of student rep- resentatives from schools throughout the en- tire country and is influential in sponsoring and promoting educational enterprises and student interests. I-IOMECOMIN G, CAMPUS CGMMISSION Various committees run the many extra curricular affairs at Knox. The Homecom- ing committee organized and carried out the plans for a festive Homecoming. Among the highlights was the football game. Unfor- tunately it turned out in favor of Beloit. Then that evening the house decorations were judged. The Fijis won this award. Home- coming celebrations were climaxed by a dance that evening. The committee coordinated plans so that the various functions might come off smoothly. Rules had to be made for the house decorations, judges had to be chosen, and the band had to be engaged. Except for the weather and the football score the Homecoming celebration went off very well. Another prominent and active committee is the Campus Commission. These people have connected themselves with the World Student Service Fund. In recent years Knox College has undertaken a program to help students in other countries not as prosperous as we. The Campus Commission collects donations, imports a foreign student to speak on the virtues of W.S.S.F., and runs a carni- val to raise money. A trophy is given to the social organization which nets the most money. Consequently the sororities and fraternities are quite active in the carnival. Bingo booths, gambling games, cake walks, and frog jumping contests have been featured. An auction adds more money to the collec- tion. Chapel cuts usually bring a nice price, as do the services of Miss Smythe as a wait- ress. All these things added together total close to a thousand dollars for the W.S.S.F. and show the Hne job done by the Campus Commission. 1 Pictured above at the top is the Homecoming com- mittee comprised of Moser, Lowe, Stanforth, Kelly, Wetherbee, Beck, and Charles. The middle picture is the Campus Commission. They are Moser, Blean, Owens, Kennedy, Weir, and Friske. The picture at the bottom is of the W.S.S.F. carnival. 19 K. A. W. S. K.A.W.S. is pictured above. The members are Abney, Siegle, Pearsall, Rehder, Lundeen, Gronnerud, Potter, and Scull in the back. In the front row are Conover, Schmidt, Rogers, Tear, Brand, Kennedy, and Kujula. K.A.W.S. is the Knox Association of Women Students, the governing board of Knox women. The purpose of K.A.W.S. is to administer the laws and mete out punish- ment to violators. K.A.W.S. has had a full year handing out campus's, date jerks, and carrying out plans for the prom and teas, under the president, Arlyth Rogers, ably assisted by Gene Schmidt, Audrey Tear, Doris Brand, and Peggy Gronnerud. It is looking forward to another exciting term with Kay Conover as president, assisted by Doris Rehcler, Libby 20 l I Potter, Delores Kennedy, and Lois Lundeen. There are thirteen members of the execu- tive board so that each sorority and the Indees are represented by two members. A repre- sentative from the Freshman class makes up the thirteenth member. One of the activities of K.A.W.S. is the Loan Fund made available to a junior or sen- ior girl or girls. Another is the annual Christmas Prom. All profit from this prom goes into the K.A.W.S. Loan Fund. And no one can forget the many faculty-student teas that have been so popular in the past. Whiting Hall House Council is the gov- erning body of the hall. Its members form- ulate the rules which govern the general conduct of the residents of the hall as well as make suggestions as to the upkeep of the hall. Each sorority, the Union, and the Freshman class have two members on the council. They must be residents of the hall. Each year the council sponsors several social functions in the hall, a Christmas party for the faculty children, faculty dinners, birthday dinners and two formal dinners. The council has charge of decorating the hall at Homecoming and at Christmas time. This year the council was headed by Helen Turnquist who was assisted by June Kujala, sec.-treas., Marge Swanson, Jean Henderson, Margaret Uhlir, Joanne Davis, Ruth Taylor, Lola Stout, Francis Grothe, Mildred Weinberg, Cora Ellsworth, and Carol Howland. The of- ficers for the coming year are: Ruth Tay- lor, president, and Margaret Swanson, sec.- treas. Seymour Hall, men's residence, is gov- erned by a hall council that is elected each year by the residents of the hall. The men elected to the council also act as proctors of the hall and are responsible for the general conduct of the hall. The men elected this year were: Bob Bauler, Bill Gunnison, and Ken Critser. The faculty resident head of the hall and the men's housing units was Mr. Davenport. The Pan-Hellenic House Council is com- posed of two members of each sorority on the campus. This council has charge of the run- ning and the maintenance of the Pan-Hell House. HOUSE COUNCILS i l l Pictured above is the Whiting Hall House Council at the top of the page.

At Knox he said that he discovered an amazing vari- ance from the national average. Here at Siwash he found fparticularly among the girls, that a large percentage wished to 'cadapt themselves to the social order, to sub- merge their interests to those designated by a group . This may be an exaggeration, but it is a fact that a majority of the activities engaged Interfraternity-back, left to right: Peterson, Jobst, Burkhardt, Van Trigt, T. Schmidt, and Weber.

Competition among the groups has been keen, especially in intramural sports, but this friendly rivalry has kept the organizations on their toes in making the campus life stimu- lating and invigorating. Formal and in- formal dances and get-togethers sponsored by the groups have served to give the student body a social-consciousness which will be invaluable in post-college life.

It has be- come an integral part of the fabulous tradition here at Knox. It stands for a spirit and an ideal that is sometimes overlooked in the busy whirl of life. Naturally at a liberal arts school you would expect to find music playing an important role in the lives of many of the students. Bach, Beethoven, Liszt, Chopin, Wagner, and the many others give the modern student a little classical backgrotmd. The beautiful composi- tions of these men are emblematic of the highest aesthetic value. Close to twenty per cent of the Knox Family is enrolled in pro- ducing and studying this fine music. During the school year a diversified pro- gram is offered to all the students at Knox. Vocal lessons or lessons on instrtunents are offered to the novice as well as to those who already excel in some field. Every student may take a free music lesson each week, and by this medium a well rounded education is assured at Ole Siwash. Then if the student does not care to sing or play an instrument, there is at his disposal a large record collection of classical music. It is surprising the num- ber of students who take advantage of this and further their music appreciation. For those who are talented and enjoy play- ing an instrument the band and sinfonietta are available. The band plays the standard large band arrangements, and of course the stirring marches. Sinfonietta leans toward the symphonic works and some novelty num- bers. For people who like to sing the choir is handy. Each year the choir makes trips around the local country and has always been highly acclaimed. Music is one of the most important things at Knox. The picture below is a shot of the Knox college band in action at a football game. The Knox college band, under the direction of Willard A. Starkey was this year again prominent in college affairs. During the football season the band played for home games and generally added to school spirit. The band also took the trek with the team members to two of the out of town games- Cornell and Monmouth. The concert season was represented by a concert on February seventeenth and another on April twenty-third. The repertoire selected included a wide variety, ranging from Beethoven and Bach to Kern and Gould. BAND In February, ten of the members were selected to play in the All-State College Band at Bloomington for the IMEA convention. The group aided in the Army Day program at the Armory in April. The band led the graduation procession in June to climax an- other successful year. Band officers this year were: president, Frederick Stellar, secretary-treasurer, Joan Felterg librarian, james Weber, property managers, Gustav Rieckhoff and Don Emery, and drum major, Curtis Morrissey. About seventy-five voices blended together to make up the Knox college choir this past school year. Directed by Thomas W. Wil- liams, the choir made its most frequent appearances in chapel programs. The home concert was presented Sunday, April twenty- fifth. Concerts away from home consisted of trips to Abingdon, Burlington, Keokuk, Plymouth, Ottawa, and LaSalle. Qne of the highlights of the year came at Christmas time with the traditional carol service at Beecher chapel. The choir sang for the P.E.O. State Convention in Galesburg in April. The executive committee fgoverning body to youJ was made up of Sterling Anderson, Gwen Campbell, Carol Howland, Pat Hug, and Robert Miller. Members of the choir were: SOPRANGS: Grace Bacon, Elsie Bastert, Janet Burwash, Gwendolyn Campbell, Patricia Hug, Elaine Hulse, Dorothy Jacobson, Joan Lawrence, Stella McMaster, Catherine Merrill, Beverly Peterson, Arlyth Rogers, Bernice Sandall, Neva Sebert, Gretchen Shirck, Lorraine Soucek, Nancy Stuckey, Audrey Tear, Pat Watts, Carroll Welker, and Jeannine Whit- comb.

BASSES: Sterling Anderson, Richard Flem- ing, Willard Franklin, Theron Hughes, Theodore Jordan, Kenneth Miller, Davant Mull, Paul Patton, James Porter, John Row- en, Robert Russell, Fred Stevenson, Lawrence Stilwell, and Ralph Trieger. CI-ICIR The Knox Sinfonietta, Knox's abbreviated symphony orchestra, is conducted by Mark Biddle. The Sinfonietta has been busy this year, not only on its own concerts but in assisting other musical efforts as well. Mem- bers of the group furnished the accompani- ment for the opera Cosi fan Tuttiv presented by a New York opera company. They also gave the orchestral backing to the successful production of The Desert Song . A major- ity of the members made up the Galesburg Civic Orchestra. On April twenty-second the Sinfonietta played for the annual Galesburg Chamber of Commerce banquet. The home concert on May eighteenth presented a varied selection including Nicolai's 4'The Merry Wives of Windsor overture, Mozart's Symphony no. 40 in G Minor, Triumphal March from Verdi's Aida, Pierme's Entrance of the Little Fawns, Emperor Waltzf, by Johann Strauss, Anderson's Jazz Pizzicatof' Morton SIN F CN IETTA Gould's Night Song, and the Russian Sailor's Dance from Gliere's The Red PUPPY- Sinfonietta officers were Joan Lawrence, president, Betty Weisenborn, secretary-treas- urerg and Davant Mull, librarian. Those playing in the group were: Violins: Bernice Winchester, Vivian Iohnson, Nancy Nelson, Davant Mull, Gene Schwilck, Vir- ginia Starkey, Gerald Isaacson, Jane Kemper, Anita Storey, and Phyllis Hudson.

These recitals are of two types. One kind presents a varied group of selected musicians each giving a solo. The other kind consists of primarily one or two students. Sterling Anderson on February twenty- second gave his senior recital at Beecher chapel. Sterling, who will continue his study of music at the School of Sacred Music, Union Theological Seminary at New York, presented an outstanding program of organ selections. Sterling has become an integral part of the music department because of his outstanding work in choir as student director as well as other musical phases. Gustav Rieckhoff presented his senior re- cital on March twenty-sixth. Gus graduated at the close of the winter quarter, and he and his clarinet were missed during the spring quarter in the band, Sinfonietta, and around the music department. Cn the twenty-seventh of April, Carroll Welker and Bob Miller gave a joint voice recital. Carroll, a soprano, is best known this year for her excellent performance as Margot, the feminine lead of The Desert Song . Bob, a tenor, is remembered well for his lead in The Chocolate Soldier two years ago. Mary Runyon and Willard Franklin pre- sented a joint piano-voice recital May twenty- third. Mary, besides being an accomplished soloist, is a skilled accompanist as was dem- onstrated in the recital. Will's baritone voice was also heard as the male lead in The Desert Songi' this year.

SIGMA ALPHA ICDTA v CHAPTER SIX -MILITARY Having just completed its second full year of college military training since the war, Knox's R.O.T.C. department has success- fully assumed and fulfilled its manifold duties of military instruction for the year 1947-'48. Over one hundred men this season completed highly specialized courses in both the infantry and air force divisions, ably supervised by a teaching staff of four officers and four en- listed men. The Reserve Cfficers' Training Corps on campus has done a great deal toward- the furthering of interest and enthusiasm in train- ing for a peacetime army, and has stressed numerous advantages and benefits for those candidates. Moreover, thirty-six enlisted men enrolled in the advanced infantry and air corps programs had the chance to study toward regular army commissions. Besides its educational department, the military staff is also sponsor of two other facilities. A chapter of Scabbard and Blade, national honorary military organization claim- ing R.O.T.C. members of exceptional ability, is located at Knox. Both men's and women's varsity rifle teams have been organized, as well as a successful intramural rifie program. Below: Col. Serff is talking to his student officers, Middleton, Cridland, and Moser. Scabbard and Blade members above are Seward, IVIiner, Taylor, Cridland, and Moser standing. In front are Rothgeb, Williams, Middleton, Hughes, and Lind- strom. Having been established on the Knox cam- pus twenty-five years ago in 1923, Scabbard and Blade, national honorary military organ- ization, enjoyed a highly successful season in 1947-'48. Inactive during the war, the society has greatly expanded in the last two years, until it now includes fifteen members and four new pledges. Membership to Scabbard and Blade is based mainly upon outstanding scholastic and extracurricular achievements in the R.O.T.C. program. The candidate's interest in his training and his studies, as a whole, is also taken into consideration before the honor of pledgeship is conferred upon him. Two new members were admitted into the ranks after formal pledging ceremonies at the gala Military Ball, March sixth, which, inci- dentally, is sponsored by Scabbard and Blade. The two were Tom Miner and Dave Wil- liams. Four recently pledged candidates who will be formally initiated next year are Elmer Chessman, Alex Dedoshlca, Gerald Isaacson, and Bill Phillips. At present, the list of active Scabbard and Blade members, excluding officers, reads: Jack Cecil, Dick I-Iorton, Bill Hughes, Ar- thur Lindstrom, Bob Malcomson, John Roth- geb, Tom Miner, and Dave Williams. Those elected to administer the affairs of the organi- zation are: Jay Middleton, president, George Cridland, vice-president, Jim Weir, secretary, Jim Moser, treasurer, Bill Frazer, reporter, and Don Taylor, mess sergeant.

SCABBARD AND BLADE 60 This year was one of double significance for Knox's rifle enthusiasts, as it marked the commencement of an all-college intramural rifle program, as well as the continuation of two varsity squads. Throughout the season, the male sharpshooters engaged thirty-seven other colleges and universities, from Maine to Alaska, in postal matches. Also, they played host to Monmouth and Butler Manufacturing Company, Galesburg, aggregations, and jour- neyed to Coe college's campus, defeating all three in shoulder-to-shoulder contests. How- ever, the men ran into a snag at the hands of their feminine teammates, who outhred them in a shoulder-to-shoulder battle late in April.

' The life of an army man is most emphat- ically not a bed of roses, as any Siwash R.O.T.C. man would agree. It entails a great deal of drilling, inspections, and studying, combining the energy of a supercharged bat- tery and the mental prowess of an Einstein. Nevertheless, the rewards and advantages of- fered by the military program more than compensate for the amount of time and work involved. By taking either the infantry or air corps programs, the Reserve Officers' Training Corps student enters informative channels into all phases of military science and tactics. Included are classes in adminis- tration, information and education, weapons, marksmanship, leadership and exercise of command, military law, chemical warfare, hygiene and first aid, communications, navi- gation, aeronautics, aerial photography, meteorology, supply, guided missiles, map reading, evolution of warfare, and the world military situation. Every Monday afternoon, Willard Field R. O. T. C. is transformed into a veritable army training ground, as one hundred uniformed cadets participate in marching in cadence exercises. Out of the hundred odd men in the military department at Knox, eleven students this yea: took advantage of the advanced infantry program, while advanced air corps training claimed twenty-five more. Every summer, for a period of six weeks from June twenty-first to the middle of August, these advanced stu- dents have the opportunity to attend one of the two summer R.0.T.C. camps in Illinois and Kansas. During the six weeks' session, a rigorous period of drills, maneuvers, and in- struction in military science and tactics is of- fered to the candidate, affording him an excellent chance to gain practical experience in the light of peacetime army training. Four men will go to the infantry camp at Fort Riley, Kansas, in June, and twelve others will spend a month and a half at Chanute Field, Illinois, for air corps instruction. Amid the clash of sabers and the brilliance of uniformed veterans, the gala Military Ball was presented this year in early March at the Armory. It is always noted as one of the year's top social highlights, and last March's affair was definitely no exception. Sponsored by Scabbard and Blade, and under the careful supervision of a committee consisting of Scab- bard and Blade members, the ball was en- joyed by over one hundred twenty attending couples. The ball committee was headed by William Frazer, then Scabbard and Blade president, he and several others took complete charge of all necessary arrangements. Featured as important invited guests were Major General Edwin Parker, deputy-com- mander of the 5th Army Area, Hon. and Mrs. Hugh Cross, lieutenant-governor of Illinois, and Colonel William Jenna, head of Iowa University's R.O.T.C. department, with Mrs. Jenna. From Knox, President and Mrs. Lyndon 0. Brown were entertained as guests of honor, while Messrs. Bumstead, Willhite, and Trevor and their wives served in the capacity of chaperones. This year, four pretty Knox co-eds, Pat Hug, Mary Isaacson, Gene Schmidt, and Ritz Peterson, were chosen by the military department as honorary cadet captains. From this group, Ritz Peterson was picked as hon- orary cadet lieutenant-colonel, to officiate at the Scabbard and Blade pledging ceremonies. Arched sabers and a long guard of honor through which the initiates walked made the picture truly impressive and striking to all those who viewed the ritual. After marching through this guard, each initiate in turn knelt at the feet of company sponsor Ritz Peterson, who dubbed him a new Scabbard and Blade society member. f . The Queen Presides The Dubbing The Dance MILITARY BALL CHAPTER SEVEN il EXTRA-CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES Good fellowship was the predominate note as the extra-curricular activities got off to a flying start this year. A great amount of work, thought, and time was spent on the stage, and the productions were considered by all very successful. The chief participant in these activities was the Knox student who had spare time from his studies, he is in truth a very unusual specimen. Modern language clubs were the center of interest for many students. A visitor might have looked in on The picture below and to the left is the Board of Pub- lications.

On the right are Turnquist, Pfeiffer, and Brant discussing Kampus Kapers with Mr. Leland. the campus many a night and found lengthy discussions in either French or German. De- bating and musicales also found enthusiastic supporters. I.R.C. members met and ex- changed views on the pressing world prob- lems. And then a large body of students joined the field of journalism and produced the publications. Extra-curricular activities afforded many channels to the industrious student to let off excess steam. This year, 'cPapa Is All, a comedy about a Pennsylvania Dutch family was presented at Homecoming. The cast of six was the smallest on record, not only in number, but in height. Papa made his farm a success by complete- ly dominating his family. When he learns that a surveyor has taken his daughter to the movies in a car, all of which are forbidden by him and God, Papa goes gunning for the 'CPAPA IS ALL 66 Pictured here are two scenes from Papa Is All. Papa is seen in one of his many rages. man. For a time he is delayed from his mis- sion, but he eventually wounds the wrong man and is sent to jail, to the great relief of his family. Arlyth Rogers, Hoby Van Deventer, Merce Scull, and Dave Williams expertly portrayed the members of the Aulcamp fam- ily. Lola Stout and Bob Peterson also gave outstanding performances. An unusual treatment of a war theme was Set It in Troy,', by Ronald E. Mitchell, author of last year's Alfred The action all takes place in the home of Idaeus fDale Runyonj, a herald to the king. During the siege of Troy, his entire family returns to live in his house. All this time most of the characters are concerned more Pictured below is the scene when Troy was being besieged. with family quarrels and trivialities than they are with the Greeks. Thus trivia dominates them and they never perceive the doom that is hanging over them. The ending occurs the night that the wooden horse is brought into the city while the people are celebrating. Flo Lowe, Walt Oswald, and Gretchen Shirclc all handled difficult roles capably. SET IT IN TROY 67 Popping up in the middle of the theatre season, The Desert Song, with all its in- nate charm and decor, sang and danced its way into the heart of the Knox family. Knox's Otto Harbach was on hand to witness his operetta as it entertained the audience from beginning to end. Will Franklin did a very skillful job as the Red Shadow and swept the audience into a musical reverie with his clear and forceful singing. Sigmund Romberg's tunes were beautifully sung by Carol Welker and Bev- erly Peterson who shared the feminine lead. Singers and actors Ed McWethy, Pat Hug, Lola Stout, Roy Schneider, and Kermit Allen gave memorable performances along with a host of others. Rollicking comedy as good as any you TI-IE DESERT SONG might see on Broadway was turned out by Warren Pfeiffer who gave an imaginative in- terpretation of Bennie, the Riff-harried re- porter, and Stella McMaster and I-Ioby Vandeventer spurred the audience on to more laughter with their comedy roles. The huge cast of singers and dancers de- manded the talents of three directors who worked hand in hand to produce this most successful of Knox musicales. Prof. Murray Baylor's musical direction was magnificent, Mr. Wayne Cunningham's dance instruction was professional in quality, and P. Leland's staging and over-all direction of the play was splendidly done. Knox's Desert Song is something that will long be remembered. Toss in a live possum, a twenty-five pound cake of ice, a college heron fold styleb, a mysterious character named Higgenbottom, a hundred people who are willing to do any- thing for a laugh, and what do you have? Kam pus Kapers of '48, a farce-satire-musicale in three acts entitled In Pursuit of Knowl- edgef' This year's Kapers, written by Ernie D. Brant and staged by Warren Pfeiffer and the author, took place in, around, above, and un- derneath mythical Kenesaw Kollege. The plot revolved around achievement examina- tions, the unexpected arrival of a Broadway playwright, and the identity of a guy by the name of Higgenbottom. fOr was it Throttle- bottom?,. Ernie Brant played the part of exam-cons- cious President Blue, Hoby Vandeventer as the oratorical Dean Less, Jim McNeilly as the Air Corps veteran who never stopped fiying, Harry Thompson as a banjo-eyed Burmese poet, Jerome Behm as the big pro- ducer Rollo Sawbuck, and Warren Pfeiffer turned out to be the elusive Mr. Higgen- bottom. Rip Collins, as Joe, saved the day by getting the key to the exams after wooing Vera Clayberg, the president's secretary. Scenes we won't forget: Harry Thompson slipping on a banana peel, Sadie walking across the stage on cue, Graham Burnside and his possum, Bill Fern as the rush chair- man of Gamma Maleria, Roy Schneider eat- ing a test booklet in the examination scene, and Warren Quinlan singing The Pickle Song. f'KAMPUS KAPERSF' Above Joe jobst tells his lights crew how to manipu- late the switches.

BEHIND TI-IE SCENES 70 Most patrons of the Knox theatre have little or no idea of the amount of time and ef- fort which the stage crews, electricians, and business agents expend in order to present the fine productions given here every year. This year has been one of ambitious undertaking backstage, with the construction of the Eliza- bethan stage for The Duchess of Nlalfif' and the multi-colored, unique design of The Desert Song, while Set It in Troy was an experiment in a minimum of scenery. For the second straight year, the stage manager and chief carpenter has been rotund, talented Hoby Vandeventer, who has been ably as- sisted by Char Kerner, Larry Kelinson, Bill Banka, Ann Ahlum, Emalee Sloman, and John Rothgeb. Stage lighting has been in the capable hands of Joe Jobst this year heading a crew composed of Coley Ogden, Davant Mull, Shirley Snell, and Bill Banka. They handle all the lighting and electricity, including sound effects, for all the productions. New equipment received this year includes a com- plete new switchboard which controls all the lights from backstage. Ticket sales are the responsibility of the business staff, headed by Gene Schmidt and John Boydstun. Gene is in charge of the box-office crew, a very flexible organization whose members have included Dave Wil- liams, Flixie Byrkit, Helen Leece, Nancy Pearsall, Frannie Gordon, and Lyn Posson. Usually opening a week before the show, the box office handles only ticket sales and reser- vations, with Gene iilling all mail orders per- sonally. As business manager, Johnny Boyd- stun takes care of advertising and publicity for the productions. Members of Curtain Call pictured above are Jobst, Ackerman, Brand, Pfeiffer, Siegle, Bratrude, Kerner, Miller, Stout, and Snell in the back. In the middle row are Scull, Schmidt, I-Iolst, Ellsworth, and Rogers. Seated in front are Turnquist, Skinner, and Ludwick. Curtain Call-those two words stand for many, many hours of tiring work, work that in most cases is not visible to the theatre audiences. Curtain Call is the highest honor that can come to anyone actively interested in the many and diversified activities of the theatre. The raison d'etre of Curtain Call is to do honor to theatre workers who, through significant achievement in the work of the Group, and through selfless ambition to aid in the realization of production goals, have won a place in the regard of Knox Theatre-its audiences, its casts, crew, and staff. Election to Curtain Call must be by major- ity vote of the present members, and those eligible are members of the student body that have completed the requirements of 350 hours of work in the Knox Theatre, those hours being divided among two of the three major activity divisions existing. These divisions are backstage crew work, business staff, and the active work of the actors. Curtain Call works hand in hand with Knox theatre, and still finds time for spon- soring a program of its own. This year Kampus Kapers of 1948, an original show written and directed by Ernie Brant, and pro- duced under the auspices of Curtain Call, delighted the Knox audience. Besides this ac- tive program there was a theatre at home to acquaint novices in what the theatre at Knox and its many activities consists, and the enter- taining of visiting theatre groups on campus. CURTAIN CALL Above is a group of French linguists. In the back row are Miss Kragness, Miss Jeffries, Morton, Hender- son, Miss Wilson, and Mr. Brown. Seated in front are Charles, Kotite, Babbitt, Sainati, Russell, and Wedan. Members not in picture are Schlick, Labes, Carlstrom, Garcia, B. Peterson, and Miss Prokop. After a period of war-time inactivity, Le Cercle Francais was reorganized in Decem- ber, 1947. At its first meeting the group elected the following officers: jean Hender- son, presidentg Kathy Morton, secretary, and Harry Babbitt, treasurer. This year's meet- ings, which were held once a month, included French games, short plays, group singing, presentation of selections of French music, a program of colored slides, a speaker on France today, and plenty of French conversa- tion. Since the meetings are conducted en- tirely in French, membership is limited to those students who have had at least four FRENCH CLUB 72 quarters of French. Consequently member- ship is restricted to the upper class. Une of the successful projects of the newly formed club was its colorful library exhibit on France, which provoked many favorable com- ments. To afford practice in speaking French, the club also established a French Table at Whiting Hall where enthusiastic students could meet every Friday night to converse in French over their dinner. The final meeting of the year, a picnic at Lake Storey, is mem- orable for its hot dogs, baseball, and perform- ance of Barbe Bleuef' Yes, French was spoken at the picnic tool The 1947-48 school year marked a con- siderable increase in the activities of the Ger- man Club at Knox. The first formal meeting took place in the form of a banquet for all prospective members in the private dining- room of Seymour Hall. Dr. Klimpt, who had just recently come to Knox from his native Germany, gave a very interesting talk on some of the aspects of German student life. About two meetings a month were held throughout the rest of the year. Talks on subjects pertinent to the study of the German language and culture were the features of several of these meetings. Included among the speakers were Miss Lindahl and Mr. Wilde of the Knox faculty and Dr. james A. Campbell, former long-time member of the Knox teaching staff. One of the projects of the German Club this year was the revival of the German- language newspaper. Under the able direc- tion of Editor Dale Runyon, the first Der Deutsche Spiegel produced at Knox since the war was published about the middle of the winter quarter. . The big event of the spring quarter was the trip to Bloomington, Illinois to see the annual American Passion Play held there. This was of especial interest to the members of the German Club because of the Passion Play's origin in Oberammergau, Germany. Below are pictured the members of German Club. In the back row are Ohman, Fulkers, Weber, Runyon, Wedan, and Wagner. In the middle row are Miss Lindahl, Flickinger, Stouffer, Dixon, and Wellington. In front are Brand, Glick, Von Fosson, and Miller. GERMAN CLUB Above is an informal pose of the debate team just before it toolc one of its many trips. On the right is a posed shot of the entire debate squad. Standing are Schwilck, Ohman, Welch, Cecil, Loeser, Herlean, Ashley, Fern, and Furrow. Seated in front are D. Moore, Alps, Mr. Donnelly, Bachrach, and E. Moore. Although Cecil didn't participate in debate he was active in other branches of the speech field. Under the coaching of Mr. Donnelly, the debate team had a very active and successful season. Four varsity teams represented Knox in nine major intercollegiate debate tourna- ments. Marilyn Alps and Jean Bachrach upheld the affirmative side of the national question, Resolved-That federal world government should be established. The three men's teams, who debated both sides of the question, included Gene Schwilclc and Roger Herlean, Hugh Watson and Lee Fur- row, and Wayne Ashley and Ralph Welch. Jack Cecil and Ralph Welch won excellent ratings in extemporaneous speaking and in DEBATE l discussion. Knox captured second place in the season's opening tournament at Bradley University. Then followed tournaments at Iowa State Teachers College, Illinois State Normal University, University of Iowa, and Southern Illinois University. Knox was vic- torious at Carbondale, winning ten out of twelve debates. Schwilclc and Herlean were the only undefeated team in the senior men's division. At Normal, Ashley and Welch tied for first. Un a win and loss basis, third place victories were won at Northwestern University and at Eau Claire State Teachers College, and a fourth place was achieved at the College of St. Thomas in St. Paul, Min- nesota. The high point of the year was the outstanding record attained at the Grand National Forensic Tournament at the Uni- versity of Virginia, March 25-27. The three men,s teams captured fifth place for Knox by winning twelve of their fourteen debates. Eighty teams from sixty-seven colleges and universities participated. The season closed with the annual Colton Prize Debate in May, won this year by Hugh Watson. Delta Sigma Rho, national honorary for- ensic fraternity, had four undergraduate members this year. Ruth Labes was presi- dent, Gene Schwilck, vice-president, James Bowman, secretary, and Ralph Welch, treas- urer. In November the chapter revived the Intramural Debate Tournament and awarded a new traveling trophy to the winning Tekes. Six members of the debate squad who had participated in intercollegiate forensics were elected to membership in May. They were Marilyn Alps, jean Bachrach, Jack Cecil, Lee Furrow, Roger Herlean, and Hugh Wat- son. Wayne Ashley was named a pledge. Members of Delta Sigma Rho pictured below are Mr. Donnelly, Labes, Welch, Schwilck, and Bowman. Due to the late initiation date the new members were not included. 1 l DELTA SIGMA RHO 75 In the back row above are Miss Bielefelclt, jury, Mason, Hug, Snell, and Gualandri.

Thunder-on-the-Left, Knox's riding club, after weathering the storm of war, lack of transportation, and scarcity of horses, has once again become active. This fall the club, reorganized by its old members, held tryouts and elected ten new members to the organiza-i tion. Several breakfast and supper rides were held during the year, although the Hrst post- war gymlcana or horse show, which was plan- ned as a traditional part of the Women's Day program, could not be held because of the unexpected scarcity of horses early this spring. Thunder-on-the-Left was founded in 1934 by Miss Evelyn Bielefeldt, head of the wom- en's physical education department, and sev- eral of her colleagues who were also interested in riding. They chose the name Thunder- on-the-Left simply because it sounded dif- ferent and exciting, they chose red and green as their colors simply because it signified stop and go. Since then the organization has grown into a larger group of college girls who love riding, and Miss B., along with Dr. Norman Johnson and Mrs. Sherman Brown are the advisors and honorary members of the group. This year's officers of Thunder-on-the-Left are Beverly Mason, president, Jean Barce, vice-president, and Libby Potter, secretary- treasurer. THUNDER -GN-THE-LEFT 76 ' The International Relations Club is an organization of students, whose primary pur- pose is to stimulate interest in international affairs. Under the leadership of Don Baines, the president, the club held bi-weekly meet- ings on Wednesday evenings. During the year each member, or a group of members, is assigned a specific evening and introduces the subject to be discussed. The program con- cludes with questions and group participa- tion. Situations in Finland, Argentina, India, and China were the principal topics examined. The first important activity of the club this year was the sponsorship of the China Lec- ture Seriesn presented in the fall. Among the excellent speakers in these lectures was Pearl Buck, noted author of The Good Earth? After each lecture the club held re- ceptions and group discussions for everyone attending. The high point of the year was the Neigh- borhood Conferencev held on the campus March 5th and 6th. The conference was at- tended by a hundred delegates representing over twenty schools from the surrounding territory. The theme of the gathering was c'Today and Tomorrowf, and the round-table discussions elaborated this through the ex- amination of political units. The guest speakers were Paul Douglas, candidate for senator, and Representative Donald Jackson. Below are some of the members of I.R.C. In the back row are Miller, Mr. Roberton, Arnold, Welch, Woltze, Powers, Russell, Anderson, and Fern. In the middle row are Richards, Stouffer, Isaacson, Patterson, and Garcia.

C. 77 It is the people who are the important com- modity at Knox College, so the goal of the GALE was to picture as many of this queer specimen of life as humanly possible. The GALE tried to focus a camera on all the clubs, teams, committees, and groups on the campus. In this book all activities are shown, ranging from a boisterous group of Tyrants to a sedate and intellectual group of Phi Beta Kappa,s. THE GALE Above are the members of the GALE staPf.

To the left is a picture of Craig and Norris looking at a dummy lay-out of the GALE. A competent staff was required to accomp- lish this arduous task. George Thayer did most of the photography. The next biggest assignment Went to the assistant editors. Marcia Faust, Nancy Siegle, Bob Reed, Don Kotite, Gene Schmidt, Jack Dorward, Peg Stouffer, Mary Brown, and Joe Gartner made appointments, gathered data, mounted pic- tures, and wrote articles. Bob Brelsford de- voted a great amount of time helping the editor coordinate the book, and a fellow named Norris had the somewhat dubious honor of editing this GALE. Every publication must have a staff of typists, proofreaders, writers, and artists. Glo Berg handled the art staff. Randy Wood- ford did the proofreading and Anne Gustaf- son supervised the typing. The writing field was capably handled by Rudy Fiala and Ernie Brant. The rising prices and the constant income of the GALE created a monetary problem. This financial situation was left to George Craig to figure out. As business manager, George collected a large staff to solicit ads, raise subscriptions, and help him with the complexities of a GALE budget. ,lay Mc- Koane helped George with many of the more pressing problems. Ritz Peterson took charge of the subscriptions, in this way many of the people out of school get a chance to receive a GALE. Jean Victor supervised the solicit- ing of advertisements. She also collected data for the advertisement section in the book. With this help George managed the finances as the GALE underwent one of its narrowest scrapes. Next year's GALE will be edited by Harry Holmes and managed by Jay Mc- Koane. Below is the GALE business staff. In the back row are Pratt, Jack, Ahlum, Ackerman, Wessling, Von Voorst, Elliot, Hanson, Stevens, Wagner, Chessman, Heiclorn, Reed, McLain, and Pebler.

On the left Soucelc and Brelsford look over some accounts. ment of this project can clearly be seen in the number of letters from the campus popula- tion that appeared in all issues. Highlighting the various issues were such columns as Knox Pop, In The Limelight, and the corrective influence of Mind Your Manners or How to Treat a Chaperone. Jack Cecil headed the feature writers and along with his staff presented some real thought provokers on local, national, and international topics plus some funny-bone articles for that Friday afternoon lull. Bigger, better, and broader sports pages were handled by Ken Paul and Lois Ann Lundeen. A larger sports staff made possible the excellent coverage of the Siwash ups and downs in all intercollegiate and intramural fields. Helping Lorraine hold up the editorial end of the paper were assistant editors Pete Wensberg, Walt Smith, Shirley Fries, Wes Richards, Neva Sebert, and Jack Cecil. Faculty members got to put in their two sense worth through a feature called The Guest Corner. The knowledge contained therein varied from the latest on the Russian situation to hypnosis in one easy lesson. That peculiar breed of student known as freshmen also had a crack at the press this year when it put out the April Fool edition or the Stewed Knoxent, a real journalistic 'ac- complishment. On the day of publication the staff sold its services as interpreters to the highest bidders. On the debit and credit side, or how not to wear circular stripes, Bob Brelsford did a fine job assisted by Ward Dowling, Hugh Skin- ner, Gene Schmidt, Doris Brand, and Helen Leece. Approximately fifty students of artistic and materialistic ability combined to give The Knox Student one of its most successful seasons as the college newspaper. Below is the business staff.

THE KNOX STUDENT 81 The Siwasber, traditionally the literary and humor magazine of the college, breezed through its 25th year of publication this sea- son under the editorship of Richard Skinner. Through the year the magazine appeared five times in all, and, in the words of the editor, the greatest emphasis was on a balanced content, presented attractively, consistently, THE SIWASHER Above is the Siwasber editorial staff.

Various experimental tech- niques were utilized this year, the most notable being found in the December issue, which was printed half on pulp and half on the usual slick-surfaced paper. More than fifty students had a hand in the Siwasber this year, ranging from the ad sellers and distributors under business manager Loren Alpers, his assistant Glenn LeFevre, and exchange editor Carol Howland, to art director jim Weir, whose covers actually made a magazine out of raw copy, chief typist and proofreader Ione Blean, and including, of course, the writers and contributors them- selves. Don Baines, hard-working assistant editor, proved invaluable also as idea man and star solicitor of manuscripts. An integral part of the Siwasbefs staff consisted of the various contributors, from which group appeared a number of previously unaclcnowledged journalists of considerable talent and ability. Particularly noteworthy among the writers of Hction, poetry, and 1 articles was the nefarious Chaudpierres clan -four brothers QLemuel, Charlie, Samuel and Morrisj and a sister fEmilyj. Others whose work, appearing regularly and being eagerly anticipated by the magazine's avid readers, was outstanding were Graham Burn- side, jeanne Zemek, Don Baines, Dave Pow- ers, Bruce McCulloch, Jim Biery, and Doug Partridge. More serious writing, which is to say, articles and commentaries, were well handled by Ernie Brant, Don Baines, John Palmer, and others including several com- mand performancesv from faculty members. Most prolific among the poets this year were Ralph Trieger, Carroll Welker, and Rich Skinner. Below is the Siwasber business staff. Standing are Dick, Kensel, Sinclair, Jones, LeFevre, and Howland.

THE SIWASHER CHAPTER SIX EATHLETICS Another year draws to a close and it is once again time to set down the happenings in the realm of sports at Qld Siwashf' In the years to come we hope this record may serve as a pleasant reminder of those past days and glorious achievements to the men mentioned in its pages and also to those unsung players who staff the benches. Even with this reminder the public and even the men themselves will forget the minor details of that all important touchdown, the play that set up the winning basket, or that last lap sprint that won the track meet, but there will be three things that they will re- member vividly . . . the development of lead- ership in the individual . . . lessons of co-operation with fellow participants . . . and last the development of sportsmanship in the individual. These three things are not only applicable to sports and games but are also applicable to the greatest game of all, Life. This is ex- emplified by the philosophies of Stagg, Rockne, Zuppke and the other great coaching immortals. These men shall probably be remembered more for the great teams they produced but the players who have passed under their tutelage will probably thank them most for their philosophies and splendid examples. The following chapter contains a brief summary of the doings of the Knox athletic teams. Coach Dean Trevor had charge of varsity basketball, tennis, and golf, Coach Turner handled varsity football, swimming, and wrestling, and Coach Saunders took care of freshman football, basketball, and the varsity track team. The Athletic Board of Control is pictured below. It is comprised of Mr. Trevor, Pogue, Hawkinson, Cook, and Mr. McClelland in the back. Gibbs and Bahorich are seated on the Hoot.

The Siwash squad next travelled to Grin- nell to open their title race. Grinnell scored first with White going over after a lateral from Bowman. The try for extra point was good. Knox bounced right back with Bill Frank- lin going, around end to score climaxing a series of brilliant pass plays by Bill Gunnison. The last Grinnell score came from an off- tackle plunge by Steinbeck. The point try was again good and the game ended 14 to 6. The Lawrence Vikings, undefeated in con- ference play since 1941, met a high-powered Knox eleven who upset them 19 to 13. Knox scored quickly on a Hoyt to Ogdon pass with Bob Bauler kicking the placement. Lawrence scored in the second canto with an aerial from Flom to Boya. In the third quarter Bill Stanforth returned a punt to the Lawrence 47 yard line. Jerry McCoy picked up 13 more yards and Tip Hoyt then hit Grogan with a pass for the second tally. Still in the third canto a Knox drive sparked by Warren Quinlan was successful for another score but Quinlan's tally was recalled because of an offside penalty. Hoyt then threw an- other perfect aerial to Hinchliff for the third marker. The Vikings' last score came when McClellan went over the goal and Roeder converted, the game ending 19 to 13. Gaining revenge for last year's defeat, the Augies downed the Siwash eleven 12 to 7. Knox's lone marker came when Hoyt threw to Howland ending a drive from the Knox 38 yard line. Bauler kicked the conversion successfully. The annual Homecoming game found Knox facing the Beloit Blue Devils in a sea of mud. After a scoreless first half Beloit set up a drive which ended when Wiskirchen plunged over from the one yard stripe. The rest of the Beloit score came when Bill Stan- forth's punt was blocked behind the goal line. Neither team threatened in the fourth canto and the game ended 8 to 0 in favor of Beloit. The 60th annual meeting between the Knox Siwashers and the Monmouth Scots took place on November 15 in a very muddy Me- morial Stadium. The Scots led by Jim Feehley downed the Purple and Gold 22 to 0. The setback evened the season's record at 4 and 4 and placed the Knox squad in a four way tie for fourth place in the Midwest Conference.

In 1941 Bill came to Old Siwash where he earned letters in football and track. 1943 found Bill serving in the U. S. Marines aboard the heavy cruiser San Fran- cisco. After his discharge in 1946 Bill returned to Knox to take an important part in the grid campaign. This year his hard running and fine punting were important factors in the Knox campaign. The old saying that Dynamite comes in small packages can be aptly proved by watching George Bahorich, stellar Siwash guard, in action on the football field. The 150 pound Bahorich was this year's choice for the most valuable player award. In addition FCJCTBALL to this honor he was named All-Conference guard. George comes from Maine Township High School where he was named to the West Suburban All-Conference team. In 1943 Sergeant Bahorich served with the 103rd division in France and Germany. Enrolling at Knox in the fall of 1946 George had a successful season and this year was back playing his usual superb type of ball. Among the many Galesburg boys attend- ing Knox is Bob Bathless Grogan, this year's outstanding senior. Bob graduated from Galesburg High in 1943 where he earned letters in football, basketball and base- ball. In 1943 he served in the Navy V-12 program for a short time before serving ov- erseas as an ensign. Throughout the 1946 season Bob played an excellent game at the end position. This year found Bob con- verted into a wingback in which position he was one of the team's leading scorers. The Junior Siwashers showed great possi- bilities in their two contests. By conference rules only two games are allowed freshmen teams. Knox played one game with Monmouth on Cctober 31 and the other with Augustana the 7th of Novem- ber.

With a number of outstanding upperclass- men back from this year's squad combined with these promising frosh Knox should have an excellent team for the 1948 season.

This first non-conference game gave the Knox fans a chance to see the team in action before the following schedule got under way.

Led by Bob White with 11 points and Ed Westerdahl with 9 the Purple and Gold held a comfortable lead throughout. The Knox basketball squad then travelled to Ripon to open conference play but fell be- fore the Redmen 69 to 53. The next night the Siwashers evened the ledger by downing the Vikings from Law- rence 59 to 56 in an overtime. During the Christmas vacation the squad travelled to Rock Island for the Augustana College Holiday Basketball Tournament. In the first game Knox again went into an over- time to defeat St. Ambrose College 71 to 69. The Siwashers were defeated in the semi- final round by the powerful aggregation from Northern State Teachers College from De- Kalb by the lopsided score of 80 to 50. Again resuming the conference race the Purple and Gold faced the vaunted Beloit Blue Devils. After jumping into an early lead the Knoxites bowed to superior fire power 60 to 48. At the Armory on the night of November the 17th the hoopsters lost a heartbreaking decision to the Coe Kohawks 46 to 43. Again renewing the old sports rivalry, Knox travelled to Monmouth for the first of this year,s two game series. The team held a slight lead for the first half as the two teams battled evenly but in the second half the Si- washers were unable to halt an inspired Scot rally going down 52 to 43. Salt was again poured into the Knox wounds by a strong Grinnell team to the tune of 65 to 50. Led by Chuck Gibbs, Knox played inspired ball before dropping a 55 to 52 in a return match with the Grinnell cagers. In the second game of the Monmouth series Knox jumped into an early lead and led 26 to 18 at halftime, although the final score was 45 to 39 in favor of the Scots. In the season's finale the University of Chicago pulled an upset winning their second game of the year by downing the Knox quin- tet 51 to 49. l Cook scores Rebound! i Foul! BASKETBALL Captain jim Pogue Jimmy Pogue from Galesburg and captain of the 1947-48 cage squad, was voted the most valuable player of the season by his team- mates. Jim also received the Tyrant award given annually by the Tyrants, local cheering club, to the player having the highest percentage of free throws. Pogue, a senior, got his start playing bas- ketball at Corpus Christi High School from 1935-39. There he earned three letters in basketball, was captain during his senior year and was named to the all-state Catholic squad as a forward. Entering Knox in 1939 he earned numerals in basketball. BASKETBALL Pogue shoots 1n 1942 Jim enlisted in the U. S. Army. While in service he played for both the Camp Polk and Camp Walters quintets. After his discharge early in 1946 jim re- turned to Knox to hold down the center posi- tion on last year's championship team. During this year's cage season Jimis fine offensive and defensive play were important factors behind the Knox team. For two successive years Jim has been named to the all-conference second team and has been high scorer for the Siwashers. Also both years he has been near the top in conference scoring. This year he scored 130 points in 10 games for an average of 13 points per game. Pictured above are Houpt, Turner, Conklin, Braucher, lan, Albright, Dredge, and Van Tright. In front are and Verner in the back row. In the middle are Har- Bondi and Gorham. The freshman cage squad under the tute- lage of Coach Bud Saunders scheduled four games for the 1947-48 season. December U 9 Augustana I-Iere january 20 Monmouth Away February 3 Augustana Away February 24 Monmouth Here The freshmen set an example for the varsity by defeating Augustana 46 to 19. In their next outing the frosh were not so successful, losing to a speedy Monmouth quintet 61 to 43. Travelling to Rock Island for their return match the junior Siwashers eked out a nar- row 41 to 40 margin over the Augie frosh. Unable to break even with Monmouth the squad was defeated for the second time by the score of 49 to 42. The team also played games with all of the fraternity teams on the campus and came through these contests with a perfect record. The men receiving numerals are as fol- lows: William Dredge, James I-Ioopes, and Robert Turner, Galesburgg Tom Bondi, Chi4 cagog Walter Verner, Abingdon, Ivan Har- lan, Dunlap, Donald Albright and Daniel Braucher, Oak Park, William VanTrigt, Ottawa, Robert Gorham, Springfield, and James Conklin, Hutchinson, Kansas. FRESHMAN BASKETBALL 93 Pictured above are Loeser, Barstow, Ingersoll, Phillips, Gallinger, and Coach turner in back. Seated are Seibel, McKoane, Peterson, Schram, Handke, and Cridland. The Knox swimming team, coached by Harold Turner, worked faithfully and hard to get into shape for the following tough schedule: January 23 Grinnell Here January 31 Bradley U. Away February 6 Monmouth Here February 13 Augustana Away February 20 Bradley U. Here February 24 Monmouth Away February 27 Augustana Here March 6 Conference Rockford A group of seven lettermen led by Captain Harold Ingersoll and several numeral win- ners are heading the list of candidates for the SWIMMING E tank squad. The lettermen were Earl Larsen, Joe Seibel, Jay McKoane, Bill Phillips, Bill Gallinger, Harold Ingersoll, and George Cridland. Composing the rest of the squad are Russell Barstow, Jack Carlson, Richard Potts, Don Schram, Ted Parker, Bob Peterson, Rich- ard Handke, Joe Wagner, and Don Heidorn. After losing the first meet to Grinnell, Knox defeated the Monmouth tankmen twice, they divided the series with Augustana, snapping the Vikings' string of 17 straight victories. In the Midwest Conference meet held at Rockford High School's pool on March 6 the Siwashers took fourth place. F Price Smith Seibel Norris Hurst Warwick This year the Knox varsity tennis team played six dual meets as well as entering the Midwest Conference meet at Grinnell, Iowa. There were two meets with Bradley University, two with Augustana, and two with Monmouth College, in addition to the conference meet. Paced by four returning lettermen, the Knox singles and doubles teams are expecting a successful season. The singles team was composed by the fol- lowing men in order of their position: No. 1 Smith fLettermanj 2. Norris flsettermanf 3 Seibel flsettermanj 4 Warwick 5 Hurst 6 Price flsettermanj In the doubles department there were three teams composed of the following men. The first and second teams listed reversed their positions at the middle of the season. No. 1 Price Smith No. 2 Norris Seibel No. 3 Hurst Warwick After the end of the varsity season the best of the freshmen squad will be selected by means of inter-competition and will be matched against the varsity. TENNIS 95 With only four returning lettermen the 1948 Siwash track squad lacked balance and experienced manpower. Bad weather delayed practices and as the season progressed many of the candidates became discouraged or lost interest. As a result the team,s record was not impressive. s Knox was represented in the Iowa College Relays at Cedar Falls, Iowa on April 17th, by co-captains Charles and Wollman. These two men in the weights and Chuck Hatfield in the sprints and broad jump were the team's most consistent point getters. A quadrangular meet at Monmouth with Augustana, Carthage and Monmouth opened the season. Four days later the team met Augustana in a dual meet at Rock Island. On may 8th at Willard Field the Scots from Monmouth furnished the opposition. Al- though Old Siwash came out on the short end of the scoring each time several men turned in admirable performances. The Midwest Conference meet was held at Grinnell, Iowa, on May 15th and on May 22nd the season closed with the Beloit Relays. Since the freshman rule was again in effect this year, a number of talented first year men were unable to enter varsity competition. If the frosh's fine showing against Augustana and Monmouth is any indication of what is to come, track prospects for next year are greatly improved. ' The track squad consists of Hatfield, Gibbs, Fox, Lauder, Howland, Patton, Fairgrieves, Wollman, Kurtz, Runyon, Collins, and Schneider standing. Price, Dedoshka, Hoyt, Schram, Bowman, Wensberg, and Poque kneeling. TRACK Dredge Pritchard One of the favorite spring pastimes on the Knox campus is golf. Almost every student enjoys dubbing around the fairways. And all can invariably recall a phenomenal shot that was made on number seven or number six. But the men of distinction are those who shoot consistently low enough to play on the golf team. This year's group of par-chasers was bolstered by the return of four lettermen. Bob Dredge, Jack Tower, Dwain Cook, and Bill Pritchard were back for another year of competition. Also on the squad were Dean Rich, Bob Grogan, and John Boydstun. Each 'week the men on the team shot, thirty- six holes for a medal score to see who would w l Cook Grogan play in the various positions. This enabled the man who was currently the hottest to play in the number one slot. Prior to the conference meet, which was held at Grinnell college, 108 holes medal score was posted to determine the four men to represent Knox. Dredge, Cook, Pritchard, and Boydstun emerged on top and went to the conference meet. Dean Rich went along as an alternate. Knox had numerous practice matches during the season. Knox played Bradley university, Augustana college, Monmouth college, and the University of Iowa. On the latter's team was Skip Carlson, who oddly enough played for Knox during the spring of 1946. GOLF 1 CHAPTER SEVEN ... .A.A. Many new features were entered into the Women's Athletic Association program this year. Last year mixed roving meets and target matches were scheduled between the students. The male students had become so interested in this sport that it was necessary to incorporate mixed events into the program. This fall an inter-school mixed roving meet was held at Green Oaks with Bradley and The W.A.A. Council is pictured below. In the back row are Coleman, Cecil, Hawkins, Lundeen, Abney, Jury, and Mason. In the middle row are Becht, Faust, Bagley, Schmidt, Miss Bielefeldt, and Gunville. In the front are Brand, Martin, Haake, Bachrach, and Owens. Monmouth. The results were so favorable that another had been planned for spring. In the spring there is a W.A.A. tournament and a National Intercollegiate Telegraphic Meet for the girls. Now W.A.A. is attempt- ing to help schedule target meets and postal meets for the male archers. Badminton has become so popular that this year W.A.A. has sponsored open house at Lundeen shoots Perfect form! Mixed badminton W. A. A. the gym on Friday nights for those men and women who enjoy badminton. Instead of having just a badminton tournament, a mixed tournament was held. It turned out to be more of a success than had been hoped. Jean and Jack Underwood won the laurels in a very heated match from the favored Jan Cole- man and Dwain Cook. The regular bad- minton tournament was won by the seniors in the A tournament and the freshmen in the B tournament. An inter-school match was held with Bradley, with Knox as the host school. The freshman class captured more trophies this year. The hockey tournament was won by them, and Ann Pardee won the swimming meet in the A division and Nadine Bor- man in the Bn division. After the fall sea- son of hockey was over an all-star hockey team was chosen. Another first was the splash parties which were held on Friday nights. Although limited in the number of students they became another hit with the men and women. Under the leadership of Bev Mason, Thun- der-on-the-Left was rejuvenated again. Try- outs for membership were held in the fall. At the same time Orchesis set requirements for membership and admitted members in the fall and winter quarters. At the Women's Day variety show Qrchesis presented its an- nual original dance which was this year Susie in the Field , consisting of all the sports offered. at Knox. - Four new members were admitted to the Over 200,' club in bowling: Colleen Currey, 222, Dottie Jacobson, 2125 Marilyn Carl- strom, 210, and Doris I-Iaake, 200. Randy Woodford won the ping-pong tour- nament from a former champion, Marilyn Gunville. Champion of the novice tourna- ment was Darlene Trenka. The senior class under the captaincy of Pat Mears won the basketball tournament. The seniors had won the basketball tourna- ment their freshman year. Three of the orig- inal six were still playing with the team. At the end of the season two all-star teams were chosen and played the traditional all-star game with a spaghetti dinner following as a climax to the season. Camping and outing played an important role all year. If they were not helping with the food for roving meets, they were at Green Oaks on hikes, swimming, boating, and over- night camping expeditions. During the win- ter there were intramural riflery matches between the men's and women's organizations on the campus. This spring Knox will play host to Bradley in golf and tennis in return for the play day to which Knox sent teams in archery, badminton, and tennis. At the end of the season in both sports W.A.A. golf and tennis tournaments will be held for those who are beginners and those who are advanced players. This year the W.A.A. was under the lead- ership of Gene Schmidt, president, Jane Bag- Bagley tees off A swan dive by Pardee ley, vice-president, Barbara Becht, secretary, ' Modern dance and Doris I-Iaake, treasurer. XVAA Q . x Nw nw X ,. .. CHAPTER EIGHT THE CLASSES In 1948 the Knox family of seniors, juniors, sophomores, and freshmen blended its talents in a glorious effort at success. The gals and guys worked together and played together. They listened solemnly to distinguished guests who visited the campus, gaily danced the night away at the year's many parties and dances, or else played gin in the Jeep or got together to crack a book for that big test. Out of all these divergent yet integrated activities many competent leaders appeared. From this close field came the difficult task of choosing only a small number for member- Below are the Freshman and Sophomore Commissions. The freshmen on the left are Danforth, Peterson, Shirck, Sebert, and Bengtson standing. Seated are Stouffer, Wesslmg, and Fisch. The sophomores are Watson, Merrill, Owens, Dunsmore, Howland, and Bachrach standing. Mason, Pacey, Fischer, and Lowe are seated. ship in Knoxis most coveted organizations. A happy few of the Knox family were selected for Phi Beta Kappa, the oldest and most ex- clusive Greek letter fraternity. A proud group of junior women was tapped for the national honorary fraternity, Mortar Board. This year saw an active Friars organization to which several lucky junior men had the honor to be selected. Key club secured an additional membership. And giving promise of future achievement were the members of Freshman and Sophomore commissions. Mn Back row: Allan, Charles, gPatQn, King, LeFevre, and Cridland. Middle row: Wensberg, Lucas, Og- don, Barstow, I-kuwlanr:l,-l.1nderwood, and Williams. Front row: Jordan, Rapp, Gibbs, Miller, Wollman, and Bahorich. t li R The Key club is an honorary organization for those men selected as outstanding sopho- mores. Eligibility consists of good scholas- tic record, prominence in campus activities, and promise of future achievement. The theoretical duties of the club, rather neglected in past years, include welcoming visiting celebrities and acting as hosts to visiting ath- letic teams. The club was founded in 1922 for the purpose of recognizing merit among men who have not yet hnished their school careers. Every winter the Friars assemble to decide on the chosen few, and their selection is announced at the Honors chapel. Because the Class of '50 has been such an outstanding one, twenty-one sophomore men were hon- ored this year by election into this august KEY CLUB i group. The men chosen, and their main out- side activities, are: Kermit Allen fTheatrej, George Bahorich fFootballj, Russ Barstow fSwimmingj, Bill Charges fTrackj, George Cridland fSwim- mingj, Chuck Gibbs fBasketballj, Pete Howland fFootballj, Dick Hurst fTennisj, Ted iordan flntramuralsj, John King fBas- ketbailj , Glenn LeFevre flgootballj, Richard Lucas fTheatrej, Herb- Melnick flntra- muraisj, Dick Miller fBasketballj, Coleman Ogdon 1fFootballj, Paul Patton fTrackQ, Bob Rapp fBasketballj, jack Underwood flzootballf, Pete Wensberg fpublicationsj, Dave Williams fTheatreQ, Bill Wollman 4fTrackQ. Mortar Board is a national honorary or- ganization for senior women. It was founded in 1918, with the Knox chapter being estab- lished just two years later. At present there are seventy-eight chapters throughout the nation in schools ranging in size from the small to the very large. Approximately 15,000 women wear the badge of Mortar Board. Each year, the members of the local chap- ter of Mortar Board select their successors from the women of the junior class. The requisites for membership are outstanding scholarship, leadership, and service to the campus. Those women who are selected are tapped at a public ceremony in the second quarter of their junior year and become ac- tive members near the end of the year. Mortar Boardis activities are not limited Members of Mortar Board below are I-Iolst, Peterson, Isaacson, Turnquist, Soucelc, and Fairchild in the back row. Tear, Henderson, Rogers, Schmidt, and Holt are in front. to the perpetuation of the chapter, for al- though it is an honorary organization, it is also a service organization. As seniors, the members of Mortar Board carry out some project. This year s project was a survey to ascertain the extent of participation in cam- pus activities. Mortar Board was one of the sponsors of the series of lectures on marriage which was held in April. ' In addition to the special activities carried out by one class, two activities have become traditional. The annual Campus Sing is under the direction of Mortar Board. 1ts members set up the rules for the occasion and make the necessary provisions for ensuring its success. The Smarty Pary is given each year to recognize high scholastic stand- ing among freshman and sophomore women. MORTAR BCARD Friars was organized in 1920 as an hon- orary fraternity for the purpose of giving recognition to the eight outstanding senior men of each class. Since this date, with the exception of the war years , Friars has picked the men whom they considered the most worthy of this honor and has elected them to membership within this organization. Election to Friars is not based on excellence in any particular branch of college activity, but rather on all around ability and fellow- ship, general qualities, personal traits, leader- ship, loyalty and devotion to the college. At the beginning of this year Friars mem- bership consisted of Bill Frazer, Rudy Fiala, Sid Norris, Joe Seibel, Bill Stanforth, Ed Westerdahl, and Bob White. During Honors Convocation of the Winter The Friars below are Peterson, Moser, Seibel, Wester- dahl, and Skinner in the back row. In the middle row are Smith, Weber, Stanforth, and Norris. Palmer, Hazen, Fiala, Cecil, and Carrico are in front. FRIARS Quarter, as is their custom, the Friars selected for membership eight men of full junior standing. The men so honored were Jack Cecil, Jim Hazen, John Palmer, Bob Peterson, Rich Skinner, Walt Smith, Bill Weber, and Chuck Wetherbee. In addition to these eight men, three seniors were elected as hon- orary Friars. These three men of the Class of 1948 were elected at this time because they were ineligible for election last year as they had not attained junior standing. Although their constitution specifies that the Friars are organized solely for the pur- pose of honoring outstanding seniors, the present organization is not content to be only an honorary organization without specific duties. Each year the Friars select the mem- bers of Key club. Ahlum Allen Bachrach Baker Ballard Barce Bates Becht Berry Blean Brandenburg Brant Brelsford Brown Brumiield ANN H.

SENIOR CLASS In June, one hundred and thirty-two sen- iors will receive diplomas, bringing to an end four years of college study. These young men and women, who compose the largest class ever to graduate from Knox College, have left their marks, for they have all con- tributed something to the grand tradition that is Knox College. Social organizations, Below are pictured Who's Who and the senior class officers. Back Row: Friske, Brant, Fiala, R. Peter- son, Siegle, Rogers, Front: Beck, Schmidt, White, and Norris. The senior officers are Ferrand and Westerdahl standing, Peterson and Siegle seated. athletics, and all the other activities that are so important in modern day education could not have gotten along without them. Some will be glad to go. Others will miss the old gang . But we feel sure that all will take a part of Knox with them. And we sincerely hope their last four years of achievement are an index to the success that lies ahead. 117 Abney Ackerman Allen D. Anderson S.

Election in Phi Beta Kappa is one of col- lege's highest honors. First of the Greek- letter fraternities, Phi Beta Kappa was found- ed at William and Mary College in 1776 as a secret fraternal society. Gradually the policy of electing students on the basis of scholarly attainments without regard to race, creed, color, or sex became fully established. The Illinois Delta chapter was established at Knox in 1917, and Knox is distinguished as being the only college in the state with a Phi Beta Kappa chapter. The chief require- ments for election into the organization are outstanding grades, being in roughly the up- per 10 per cent of the class, promise of future achievement, and prominence in campus ac- tivities. This year fourteen seniors have been honored. Sterling Anderson of Granville and James Crawford of Galesburg were elected this fall, and the new members chosen this spring are: Kay Beck, Chicago, James Bowman, Knoxville, Ernest D. Brant, Chi- cago, Marilyn Carlstrom, Aledo, Frank Carrico, Galesburg, Barbara Fairchild, Ab- ingdon, Ruthann Hawkins, Park Ridge, Roberta Ingersoll, Fairfield, Ia., Charlene Kerner, Berwyn, Arlyth Rogers, Oak Park, Nancy Siegle, Peoria, and Gene Schwilck, Galesburg. Faculty members who belong to the society are: Dr. Adamec, Dr. Atwood, Miss Bachrach, Mr. Bell, Mr. Baylor, Dr. Boucher, President Brown, Dr. Bumstead, Dr. Elder, Dr. Norman Johnson, Miss Krag- ness, Dr. Muelder, Dr. Stephens, Dr. Wal- ton, Mrs. Wilson, and Dr. Howard Wilson. Students elected to Phi Beta Kappa are Anderson, Ingersoll, Schwilck, Bowman, Siegle, Brant, and Carl- strom in the back. Carrico, Rogers, Hawkins, Fair- child, and Beck in the front.
