In doing so we realize lull) the dilficulty in attempting to single out any one person. There is one, however, who seems to epitomize the ' ery essence ol decency, progressiveness, scholarliness, and above all amiability; a man who has proved to be a friend and counselor rather than merely an administrator. He has placed his office and his abilities at the disposal of those who might need help; his education and his understanding have guided many students. To this man, this line personality, to Dean Le yis B. ' an Vinkle, the 1950 iMcKendrean Staff proudly, vet humbly, dedicates this book.

The promise of the talent displayed in that program has yielded satisfying results and has contributed much to the success of McKcndree these years. After such a glorious start, we were sure that we must be the outstanding class of the Century. As sophomores we ere forging steadily ahead. We wondered why the Freshmen c ' er thought thev might get awj y with their picnic. We made short work of their plans— after long searching— with a bonfire and wiener-roast in the parking lot. That was the year Bo Bracy came to the hobo convention appropriately dressed in a T-shirt and bow-tie under his neat black dress suit. That year our candidate, Ella Jones, was elected Homecoming Queen. Sadie Hawkins Day was quite an affair and the race was full of excitement. Several poor males were caught in spite of the fact that there was a great deal of confusion involved, not the least of which was tree-sitting! The year flew by quickly. So many things were happening: our basketball season, stunt show. May Day, Commencement! We came back as Juniors feeling that we had learned a lot but realizing that there was so much we yet lacked. It was a good year. We saw our football team score on the field. We won the first game in years. Quite a celebration followed this victory over Chillicothe v ' hich gave our spirits a great lift. Our basketball team really forged ahead with victories galore and a very marked improvement over previous years. The days passed with the usual round of classes, labs, tests and exams. We gave the Senior class a banquet. At the end of the year, with great jnv and a little bit ( c_ ' slidiikl take upon Mils has Ixvn the We might add that rc]iidati(in, ■e realized that scKcs the duties of Seniors. Kist wonderful year of all. is tlu ' most unusual. Our cl.iss is xr proud ot the man - outstanding football plaxois who, we feel sure, made this season the most successful in years. We won three of our games. I lomeeoming was just about as perfect as we could isk: Hobo Day, the beautiful coronation, freshman program )tball ictory over Chillicothe, alumni banquet, and the homecoming play. After these fatiguing acti ' ities e ' erybody was ready to settle down to routine happenings for a while! Instead, some of the most exciting times of the year followed, especially nights, as the Carnegie Hall inmates will testify. We got painted up several times by Shurtleff, not to mention the times Shurtleff got the same from us. After many days and nights the whole thing was climaxed by an episode that caused thirteen Shurtleff men to lose their hair— not from worry but from the skillful use of scissors plied by McKendree students and the Dean. Following this there came leaf-raking day and that memorable board meeting at which Dr. Russell Grow was elected to succeed Dr. Bracy as our president. We chose as the leaders of our class, Darrell Sample, president; Benjamin Anderson, vice-president; and Mari in Ruth, secretary-treasurer. The years spent at McKendree have been some of the happiest and most profitable we have e.x- pcrienced. We will iu er forget the experiences that we ha e had and the friends we have made on the Old Hill . Grateful for vhat McK has meant to us, we look forward to the future with great hopes both for our class and for our lma Alater. 17 - unior After three years on the Olc wc are proud to say that our class is still ad ancing in the p of success and distinction. Although wc are the class, our loyalty stands at its peak. The rank of seniorship and authority has been justlv earned bv our group. As we look back to our freshman year, our memories are a haze of initiation, green caps, and an unsuccessful but ery enjoyable picnic. We contributed our share to the I lomecoming activities by our loyal support to our queen candidate and displaying our talents in the Formal Fre shman Program. Our class showed foresight by sponsoring Sadie Hawkins ' Week, which was very successful. By engaging in all acti itics our freshman class not only felt the influence oi Mc Kcndree, but left their mark upon the school. As sophomores we viewed life with a highly superior attitude that comes from having our freshman year behind us. Our most outstanding memor ' is the 1 lome- cotning election in which our candidate, I lelen O ' l lara, was chosen football queen. Not to be forgotten is our extensive campaign A ' hieh included the barber- shop rendition of Sweet f lelen O ' Hara, and De e ' s spectacular bie ' cle ride throu ' h the chapel. The friends, the fun and the lell . ship that we had shared these first two ears made us look forward to 18 Crutcher Diehl Seng Crouch the syond ha lf ,il uur collcuc career witli e.inlRlenl matured intn seniorship v ith a record as rich as am anticipation. prcMous junior class.

W ' e ha e been represented in all tields: sports, music, dramatics, and anything that came our way. The close ol: this school year brings our class to a significant milestone along the road to higher education; we have reached the half-way mark. Al- though many changes have taken place amonw our ranks, we ha ' e come to realize how quickly two years can pass. Many friendships formed here on the Old ffill may well prove to be lifelong. Our first year proved to be a memorable one. We wore our green caps and bowed respectf ully to upper- classmen, but secretly felt exalted because of our picnic and its great climax— the rinoino of the chapel bell. Our class decided to shine in sports this vcar. Many of our fellows worked long and hard playing football and basketball, and participating in track e ents. Bill Chaney was selected for a position on the Pioneer All-Conference second football team, giving honor to the sophomores. Other sophomore football boys were Ron Herrin, Cloyce Burns, Harold Mouse Davis, Marino Garcia, Art Hartman, Jack Frost, I larold Zeeb, and Eddie Biznek.

Excelling in track as last year, the sophomore thin- clads are Art Hartman, Dick Oglesby, Dick Packard, Harold Sheets, David Da ' is, and Clovce Burns. Next in line lor the sophomores to shine in was music. When the chorus presented The Messiah, the sophomore class contributed tour vocal soloists: Lester Dewhirst, tenor; Joy Luman, soprano; Ruth Klthoff, soprano; and Daphenc Coston, contralto. June Ilender was the ' iolin soloist. Courtney Corday m Cassidy Ensley Simp When Miss i ian IJuiton iliavtc ' cl tlie Home- coming plaw Our I own, the cast was well suppHed with sophomore students.

Our 1 loineeoming queen candidate this year was Jo ' I_iuiian. Joy was a wise choice, and was second attenilant to the queen.

In addition to these talented hohos, we had Pat Hnsley, Mariaem Stevens, Vi Corday, Elsie Crisp, and joAnn Simpson attending the meeting. Our Homecoming float was an original horse-drawn wagon, with An Old Fashioned Hayride. 1 he students were dressed as old fashioned people on a hayride. Many sophomores gained honors during the war in various events. June Render won first pri e in ilie Amanda Glenn Declamation contest. Ann tinslcN r prize in the jeixed vari.ais honors. She won Amanda C.lenn contest, was .

Whenever sly humor or wit is needed, Elsie is the one to see. Her current events at the Clio open session won ' t be torgotten for a long time. Her sly comment about her ne.xt-door neighbors going crazy about the Old South — Totten and Chicken, that is, is just one of the man that gal knoxxs!

Jre k re nmen Rcgistratiiin last tall saw a new crop of freshmen enrolling at old McKendree. From that group of green youngsters will emerge, in a tew years, the Finished product of McKendree ' s training— tlie class of ' 53. Now approaching the end of our first year at McKendree, we freshmen feel we are a part of the school, but still fresh in our memories are the days of our early life here. We remember the bewildering experience of our first registration, with the many lorms to fill out, schedules to plan, and books to buy. We remember the various extracurricular activities enumerated and explained during the orientation period. And, too, we remember freshman initiation. I here was the unhappy experience of freshman party night, with the games of hide and seek and the dashes through the rain. There was the charming spectacle presented to all by the freshman girls during freshman week, the chance we all had to display our talents at odd jobs, and the generous assistance of the upper classmen in helping us to develop our leg muscles. Ralph Haves was undisputed champion walker, but I am sure no one claims to have made more beds than Wayne Waggoner. Still under the burden of initiation, we freshmen ere put to work to help make the 1949 Homecoming President Vice President - Secretary- Preasurer Ray Pcirthp, RlCHAHl) RnVANT Connie Parrisii ii 25 Cnmpbel celebration a success. Our biggest contribution to the I lomeconiing aftairs was the Freshman Formal Pro- gram, in which the varied talents of our class were clis|ila ccl to line advantage under the capable guidance ol our class president, r,a Porter. The elTorts ol all perlorniers were richK ' repaid, as were those oF the campaigners ( She swims in ponds ) because our own lovely candidate, Martha Rieman, was crowncil t|uecn of the 1949 Homecoming Festivities. Because McKcndree won the I lomeconiing loolball 26 Denny Gar Hayes game, we freshmen rooted long and loud, because this ' ictory enabled us to really ha ' e a beanie roast. Our feeling of a job well done continued through the concluding event of the Homecoming weekend, the plav Our Tcnvu. With loan Hall and h ' an Lewis in leading roles, and other freshmen contributing hea ' il - to the success of Our town, the class of ' 53 felt great satisfaction in the production of this out- standing play. ' I he ' hectic davs of our hcoinnina at McKcndrce Kerper 27 Bogue J. Bailey are over. They are onK- memories now, with snapshots and souvenirs in our scrapbooks to help us relive them. We have now settled into the routine campus life, which is always interesting, and occasionalh ' exciting. I he contrihiitions and intliience ol the various members oF our class will continue to be lelt on the Old Hill in the years to come. We are facing the future with great anticipation of what we can do for McKendree and what McKendrec can do for Waggoner L. Williams f«. l f a MognuEon M.

Here ' s what happened: epteiflber it all started on Labor Day. 1 hat ' s when the new students started arri ing. The older ones eame in later in the week. E erybodv v ' as busy getting settled that first week, besides getting aequainted. It didn ' t take long to find out who the upperelassmen were, lor the had a gleam in th.ir eyes as they talked about freshman initiation that would come up sooner or later. Talk about people sweating, those freshmen thought they were really in for it. When initiation came, with green beanies and special rules for the freshies, it wasn ' t as bad as they ' d expected. Honest, boss, I don ' t know when I ' ve seen a lunnier sight than when those freshmen women from Clark Hall were initiated. Hair-dos, so-called hats, and stunts out of this world. What a mess they were! Both the boys and the girls were taken on midnight strolls far-far out in the country— a so-called introductory tour. X ' hile this was going on, studies were commencing, and the chief guessing game was trying to name the new president. The older students hated to .see Dr. Bracy lea e. About this time also some anonymous donor ga e the college S25,000 for aiding theological students attending McKendree. Coach Barclay was working his football squad into shape, and the moans current on the campus came from Carnegie Hall where men wished thev had kept in shape during the vacation. The Bearcats lost their opener to Rose Polv 14-6. but it .:s a close game. As the year was getting started. Religious Emphasis Week was obscr ed on the campus, with Re ' . Hoo ' er Rupert as speaker. L Ctober l thought things would slow up on the campus come October. Was I surprised! First of all they had a quartet in here that rocked the place v ith a special version of Li ' l Liza Jane. Then football fever really swept the place. There were victories and losses, and many sleepless nights after some Illinois college Bluj Boys tried to whitewash the place. The freshmen cleaned it up, naturally. Then came all the preparation for homecoming. And what a homecoming! Ihe whole place was decked out in colorful decorations, with a big parade before the football game on Saturday afternoon. Hobo Day had been good, the freshmen had crowned their queen in lavish ceremony, and the parade attracted the whole town ' s attention. What left c ■ervone cheering was the Bearcat victory o ' er Chillicothe on the gridiron. A bain|uet and the presentation of Our Town to a packed house ended a big weekend. Shurtleff was ne.xt up on the Bearcat schedule, and they were trying to upset the Bearcat homecoming with night raiders. First one guy by the name of Wayne was caught and shaved, after McKendree returned the favor of paint. Then, 13 others were captured and shaved before a student assembly at 4 a.m. in the gymnasium. What a time! It got Shurtleff so riled up thev beat McK 26-13 in a fighting comeback. The freshmen hung up their beanies after the Chillicothe victorv. 1 he ' didn ' t succeed in having their party, though. Rain caused one dela , with the upperelassmen breaking up the partv on the Bagg farm the ne.xt night. You ne er saw people run around like these jieople did tr ' ing to find the partv. J OVemuer Sadie Hawkins Day and Leaf Raking Dav saw students stretching some new muscles. Rumors and guessing were ended when the boaril met and named Dr. Russell Grow as president of McKendree. Six people were seen to reach the bursting point as their pride swelled on being named to Who ' s Who. The Bearcats brought down the curtain on the football season with a 13-to-7 ictorv (ner Eureka for the first Pioneer conference victory of any sort in three vears for Mc- K ndree. They talked for weeks here about two touchdowns, each 50 yards, on three plavs. Those boys sang like a cage of canaries on the wav home that night. Coach Bill Mauzv trotted his basketball squad out on the coint f r the first time on November 28, and started nut a whiz-bang season with a lot of talent, including man ' freshmen. 58 oU€C€tflber a few people found time to study here, while others reliearsed and presented the Messiah as the eollege ' s annual yuletide choral presentation. The Bearcats were still winning games as Christmas acation came around, a chance for exervone to take five and start breathing again. J-CiniKll ' 1 his is one of those strange places, boss, where people were realK- glad to get back from vacation. ' 1 hey said they missed the place. Some came back with resolutions to start studying this year, but that passed fast, especially after the second semester got started and the verdict from first semester was forgotten. There was a new family in the little White House, known as The Ste ' enson I louse, and the president ' s office was again occupied. An expansive night program was started on the campus, and for awhile it looked as if Scott Air Base were taking over. The Bearcats hit a weak spell at the turn of semesters, but came back to the ictor path by beating Principia in a special benefit game. On January 7 at Blackburn, a record fell as McKendree won 87-66, a new all-time game high at McK. Jeoruar The students were exposed to a bit of culture as Clerard Willem Van Loon isited the campus. Gifts of slightly more than S 10,000 were announced, and campus impro ements were speeded up. Basketball kept the limelight as the team racked up tuo Pioneer ictories. Bobbv 1 cc had set a new scoring mark of 36 points, only to have another Mt. Vernonitc, |im Burnett, come along just 12 days later and top it at 37. Coach Mauz ' resigned to take ad ' antage of a wonderful opportunity M ' ith the military government in Germany. Behind him, he and the Bearcats left a new set of records, for they ' d broken almost every one on the books. Fourteen games were won and seven lost for the best season since 1930-31. The team ' s average per game was 68 points— another high. Bobby Lee amassed 418 points for a new indi idual season total. .AVdrCn John VV. Vandercook led a parade of celebrities at the second Communica- tions U ' orkshop, as high school students and teachers took over the place for a day. With basketball out of the way, track hit the spotlight again, as McKendreans looked forward to another successful season. The chorus bundled up and left the campus on a tour of Illinois, Indiana, and Wis consin. Easter vacation followed right on the heels of this, and nobod ' was ,i bit sorry either. CPrpi ' Ll The McKendrean Stunt Show left them lying in the aisles after the Easter acation was oxer. Hidden talent was unco ered all o er the campus for this show. One of the big e ' ents of the year came when Dr. Grow was formally inaugurated amidst colorful settings as the eollege ' s twenty-fourth president. With spring, there came a new romantic movement on the campus, and hearts beat just a little faster as the days became warmer. .AVay. This final month was a busy one, but then, what one wasn ' t? There was the exer-popular May Fete, the Spring concert, music recitals, and preparation for the closing events of the year. The students crammed as e.xams neared, but fouml time to participate in oratorical contests. The seniors were becoming philosophical arul tender as baccalaureate, the alumni dinner, and commencement drew near. I found that I hated to see the end come too, for something about the place seems to ha c ' gotten into m veins in my stay here. Ground was broken at commencement for the new gvmnasium-aiulirnrium. the first new building on the campus since the library was built in 1919. The college celebrated the Centenial of Old Main in connection with commencement, so the place was quite a bee-hive of activity as I closed up shop and packed my duds.
