305 fel' 01458 Randolph Sinks Foster, were he alive today, would probably not consider his identification with Foster House an unmixed honor. We could even imagine that he has turned enough in his grave in the last few years to gain the title of Whirling Rannie. Between the Fight for Dear Old Foster and the We Do As We Please philosophies, the men of Foster must be recorded as having chosen the latter. This has not prevented them from achieving distinction as an organization in various fields, but in sacrificing a measure of that dis- tinction they have escaped the mould of conformity that has plagued certain other organiza- tions on campus. Several individuals of Foster have occupied positions and received University distinctions, the which there are no whicher. Among us are several Phi Beta Kappas, for we consider scholar- ship a great thing, chief among those for which we came to school, and we have only admira- tion for the men of the key. And among us we have athletes with letters on their chests, for which we have only admiration. And there are politicians, be-smirched occasionally, but we are proud of them, there are social headliners, and boys who look smooth in tails. Occasion- ally we get a guy who just can't do nothin' and he gets along all right too. Some have migrated to fraternities, but Foster is not alarmed. She considers them her illegitimate progeny. Foster-where there's always a bridge game, always a bull session, and where there is no distinction between night and day.

Fifth Row-Hutchison, Wilkinson, Siebert, Goodwin, Peterson, Johnson, Ebright, Dilling, Manion, Kakarakis Fourth Row-Cray, Hutton, Arneberg, Ahlberg, Montgomery, Johnson, Lengs, O'Connell, Ward Third Row-Schlegel, Renfroe, Thompson, Higgins, Siebert, McCoFlery, Klumb, Kling, Jenkins Second Row-Hardy, Gott, Fielder, McNamara, Geiss, Hamilton, Boetcher, Reiche, Pucci First Row-Lawson, Czaikowski, Ludolph, Ray, Jamra, Armstrong, Anderson, Madison ibeha lafiikn The D.U.'s have been active in nearly every branch of campus activities this year. ln their own words, There's a D.U. in everything, and every D.U. is in something. Harry Boetcher, Art Hutchinson, and Albert Geiss have led the political contingent, Boetcher as a member of the Student Governing Board, Hutch on sophomore com- mission, and Geiss holding down the president's chair for both semesters. Boetcher also edits the Purple Parrot. Glenn Stock is on the editorial board, and Carson Higgins and .lack Forrester work on the advertising statt. Dick Siebert is a Parrot stat? artist. Jim Montgomery is a Syllabus and Daily man and Bob Goodwin a Daily editorial board member. Sterling Goff won the heavyweight championship in intra-mural wrestling, and coached the D.U.'s to this year's intra-mural wrestling championship. Eric Jenkins won the bantam-weight title. Corne Aarts and Bill Urlaub represent the boys in football. Ed McNamara is cap- tain of this year's varsity fencing team. Frank Seubold is a varsity swimmer, and Hank lO'Brienl Czaikowski, Casanova extraordinary, is on the 'freshman team. But for swimming poor Hutch and J. Jamra took the prize. Both would have been resting at the bottom of Lake Michigan if the coast guard had not pulled them out after a forty minutes struggle with the wind and the waves. The boys were over-exposed, but tough. The mighty Hutch was whooping it up again in a week. Jamra took a little longer but was not very far behind. And so D.U., founded more than 100 years ago still maintains: Every D.U. is in something, even if it's the Lake.

Here, in this abode of the mighty, there awaken men, heroes all, who with stout hearts, even though they are confronted with that ever-present problem: - Should l cut my eight-thirty? -rise with a determination to do great things. Foremost in this council of mighty mortals are their leaders: M. Ricardo Bertsch, Praesidentis, M. Philippi Gardner, Praesidentis de vice, M. J. Heath Terrando, Scribe, M. Arturo Daley, Charge de Tresorier, M. David Banker, Charge de tete-a- tete, et M. Daniel Schlessinger, Charge de lntra-murals. Their motto: He seen his duty and he clone it -Shakespeare, we think. Having won the League lll football title as one of the two undefeated teams, the heroes of Goodrich now seek fields of greater glory. Messrs. Schlessinger and Klores were selected as All-lntramural men. As if hearkening to the words ofthe muses, there comes from Goodrich-by-the- Lake an endless stream of intelligentsia. Lending their vast knowledge of Willard Hall, the Little Club, queens, beauty and otherwise, etc., are such bards as Messrs. Gubbins, Trompeter, and Leighton on M. Harry B-et-h-r's esteemed but belated publication, Le Perroquef de Pourpref and Messrs. Sauer, Kuehne, Gubbins of the eminent publication of queenery, politics, and Phi Mu Deltas, the Syllabus, and Messrs. Banker and Clement on the Daily, the ofticial organ of R-th-urn. And now, with the sun setting in the golden West, we bid a reluctant adieu to glorious Goodrich-by-the-Lake. 22
