Those fond remembrances which linger longest are the pleasant ones, and those we value most. Therefore, we dedicate this memory book to Dr. Benjamin F. Stelter, who has been to us all that pre-college days promised, and the fulfillment of our greatest desire: to meet a man who is at once a friend, a genius, a humorist, and who can join in the camaraderie of all ages. As a constant source of inspiration from day to day, both in and out of class, he has embodied all the elements of a regular fella. Never failing to encourage at the proper moment, never failing to rebuke when rebuke was necessary, he always has been both comprehending and diplomatic. For these reasons, and because he has meant Occidental to us, we respectfully dedicate La Enema, 1941, to Dr. Benjamin F. Stelter.

Ilird AT THE moment of writing this word of greeting we are planning our Founders Day. The world situation is increasingly complicated. In its confusion we are called upon to make the major decisions in our lives. It is one of the great crises of our times. Within the walls we sense a unity ofhumane and friendly interest, the desire on the part of all of us to bring the ideal world out of the heavens and make it work, to see the new jerusalem in this pleasant land. In this time we are also especially mindful of the members of our faculty who have served for twenty years and more. Presently there will be a special honoring of this group. However, the day of Occidental is not backward, but forward. The foundations have been well laid during these fifty-five years, and faculty services enable us to enter into the rapidly enfoldin g confused world with hope, assurance and increasing purpose. When the present generation of students reaches the fullness of its life may there be for them a world where intelligence and kindness and devo- tion are more effective for the good life than they are at this moment. We believe that such shall come to pass. To all of Occidental we give our greetings and share our household affections. REMSEN D. BIRD. IHA lll FA TIME rolls his ceaseless course. The college generations come and go. Before one is aware, the freshman has become a senior and the senior has become the head of a household and begun to worry over the frivolities and shortcomings of the younger generation. La Encina is a book both for the moment and for the years .It records in narrative and picture the activities and achievements of the college year. It will be read with interest and excitement when it makes its first appearance on the campus, and its pages will be fondly turned when hands have begun to tremble with age and memory has grown blurred about the edges. In these mad days, when wars are shaking all the earth and the face of history is being changed and mankind is moving to an unpredictable destiny, it is well that we should have this memorial of the year that is closed to remind us that there is still somewhere on the earth beauty and peace, friendship and happy associations, and the undimmed light of truth and knowledge.

C. ofiicers and executive council, headed by able gavel-wielder Ed Richards, vice-president Betty Watson, and secretary Margie Noble. A big first in Oxy history was the beautifully suc- cessful A. S. O. C. dance, which for the first time was held off-campus, at the Altadena Country Club, to the popular strains of Burt Smith and orchestra. Another successful social function was the Homecoming Day dance, held after the annual Pomona football game. A quiet semester Cquoting Richardsh of legislation included an amendment to the constitution awarding traveling jackets to second-year minor sport lettermen, an act providing for a permanent Peace Council on campus and a Peace Week, a recommendation for the discontinuance of the Oxy Tide as a campus publica- tion, and recommendations to the administration and faculty that the frosh build the Pomona bonfire no earlier than seven on the eve of the rally and the sus- pension of classes for freshmen on that Friday. Prexy Richards climaxed his year when he was sent to Provo, Utah, for the Pacific Student Presiclent's conference, where he was elected secretary-treasurer of the organization which includes 110 colleges and uni- versities in the Pacific region and Hawaii.

HEADED by president Bing Bingham, the Associated Men Students organization works to further the interests of all Occidental men. The first event of the A. M. S. calendar was Lido Isle Day, which introduced the college to new men. The annual stag banquet, a major highlight of the year, featured John Qualen, stage and screen actor, as guest speaker. His humor, ably supported by student funny men, made the evening a huge success. Under the guidance of ofhcers Bing Bingham, Rog Owen, and Ted West, this year's A. M. S. activities also included planning the Tuesday assemblies and Men's Day, which offered a varied program to prospective Occidental students.

AS WE, the seniors, the class of 1941, tread along the path Worn deep by the footsteps of spirit and tradition which form such an inte- gral part of Occidental life, we pause in retro- spect of the things we have done in our years here. In our memories are pictures of green dinks, bonfires, dances, friends, our favorite profs, and all those little things which have made up our book of Occidental memories. Many events are still clear and fresh in out mindsg it is our hope that they shall remain undimmed with the passing of years. Now, as we go our diverse paths, as new fields open before us, it is our hope that those of us who remember may meet here in the coming years and reminisce. JOHNNY BROUGHTEN.

JUNIORS have found their calendars crammed with activities this year, with their attentions divided between collaboration S with other classes and individual endeavors. The spirit of the class has been one of excellent cooperation during the past year, perhaps due to the directing influence of class officers Fred Bartlett, president, Virginia Service, vice-president, Cricket Hagle, secretary, and Doug Brass, treasurer. At the beginning of the fall semester the junior class did its part to help introduce the social night-life of Occidental to the new freshman class at the semi-formal Junior-Frosh dinner dance held in the College Union. H ey! Juniors Fred Bartlett, Virginia Service, Margaret Hagle, Doug Brass. CAME time for the annual Soph Stunts dance and the juniors were on hand to receive a first honorable men- tion for a booth designed by active class members. Then again, toward the end of the year, the juniors feted the outgoing senior class when they were hosts at the Junior-Senior Prom, a dance done very formally for the first time this semester. Guiding lights behind the prom were the more recently elected officers headed by Doug Brass as president, and assisted by Doris Bovee, vice-president, Margaret Edmonds, sec- retaryg and Chuck Priest, treasurer. -iszw President Fred Bartlett THE SOPHOMORE class under the able leadership of More thrilling than ever before was the traditional Keith Beebe enjoyed an extremely successful year. S 0 p h ll III 0 r E S rivalry between the sophs and the frosh. Among the major events staged for the entertainment of the pea-greeners was the annual Pajama Parade of Swan Hall frosh, whose vocal serenades of the sororities was a musical presentation of note. Showing superior physical brawn, the class of '43 triumphed over the youngsters in the between-the-halves push ball contest during the Pomona game. As is usual, the outstanding event of the year for sophomores was the sponsoring of the Soph stunts. This year, the class managed to nab all the honors-firsts in contests for best booth and in number of members participating. Sopb Siunlf from the top 40 Sophomnres BETTER organized than many a class, the sophs held regular monthly meetings and planned for sponsorship of social events throughout the year. Class Day, held April 18, was a great success as staged in the manner of an old fashioned picnic. During the year both men's and women's quar- tets were organized from the class to give enter- tainment for the varied social functions. As a climax to the year's activities, the sophomores carried on a tradition which they innovated last year, that of having a buffet supper on the quad followed by a dance in the patio. This gay affair was held in the middle of May. John Glass Rosanna Crane, Rosemary Neiswender, Keith Beebe. i, mi Keith Beehe sf 'IMI' is haczyh s 'Z '52 'fi . ii- W : I 1 ' ailing lj! LED BY Ralph Palmer, the freshman men and women ushered in their college careers at Lido Isle H III and Mar Casa respectively. Soon after the fun and frolic at the beaches was over, came registration and the initiation of the age-old frosh-soph rivalry, which was preva- lent this year in a greater degree than it has been for many semesters. As is customary, the pea-greeners were introduced to the faculty and administration, both student and academic, at the frosh reception and dance held in the collge union. Following closely came the junior-frosh dinner dance, at which the upper- classmen entertained. Swan Hall men and Orr Hall women were treated to the usual Pajama Parade of freshman men to the accompaniment of hilarious ribaldry by the sophomores. Then came introduction to classes, discipline and defeat at push ball. Ralph Palmer, president Ralph Palmer, Helen Winter, Jerry McNair, Jack Bell DURING the first six weeks of the semester there was feverish activity in all of the fraternities and sororities as the formal rush week swung into full pace and bids were made for the most prom- ising material. All the while the gay social whirl of college had ensnared the new members of the student body, and a series of house dances and formals besieged them on the week ends. Fresh- men proved their originality in the Soph Stunts, displaying a booth representing a hot dog stand. Witli the addition of the two new residence halls, it has been possible for this large class to take a more active part in college affairs, since there is a greater number of on-campus members.

It looked like the ninth win in a row for the Poets, but while the second. stanza was still quite young, the Bengals started to roll.

Morgan Odell, who played a terrific bit of ball at end, caught a twenty yard pass to start things off. Then Beebe, who gained 120 yards in 30 times lugging the pigskin, went to town. With the ball on the Poet 14, Richards tossed one to diminutive Wfillie Davis, who caught the ball on the five and scampered across untouched. Mer- ritt Podley added the extra point, which clinched the first Oxy victory over Whittier in nine seasons. The final score was 7-6. Jack Ramsaur Ed Richards Don Schmock Varsit lnotball SITTING atop the conference heap, the Bengals invaded Redlands on the following Saturday to tangle with the championship bound Bulldogs. The story of the game is simply that little Al Chang lived up to his press clippings, and the Maroon team came our on top, 13 to 6. Oxy drew first blood when Keith Beebe fired a touchdown pass ro end Clark McLain midway through the first half. ln the third period, the Bulldogs pounced on a couple of Bengal fumbles and Chang threw a couple of passes. With them went any hopes for a Tiger championship. In one game that was too thrilling for comfort the Bengal squad came back the following week to down Caltech by a score of 26 to 13. The score doesn't tell, though, that the Engineers punched across two fourth quarter touchdowns and were hotter than firecrackers when Keith Beebe returned to the game and ran across two more Bengal rallies in the waning minutes to put the game on ice. Ed Richards on a line smash and George Jenings on a pass from Fred Bartlett added the other Oxy touchdowns. This year's renewal, the forty-third, of Oxy-Pomona football rivalry found the Sagehens descending upon Patterson Field fired by unprecedented pre-game activity between the two schools. Bob Fernandes scored in the first quarter, and aided by Dick Strehle's punting, the Pomonans managed ro protect the lead. V' Wi ' Tom Shatzer THE TIGERS were a great team in mid- field that afternoon, and even scored a couple of times, one called back for a penalty, and the other not allowed on a ruling that a pass had been caught out of bounds. These didn't show in the scoreboolc, and the Sagehens walked off with their third straight win over Oxy, this one by a 6 to 0 count. As a fitting climax to the season, the Tigers the following week entrained for Colorado Springs and a battle with the Rocky Mountain champions, the Colo- rado College eleven. For the third con- secutive season the Mountaineers were outclassed by the local forces, Oxy com- ing home with a 25 to 6 win. Three of the four Bengal scores were set up by pass interceptions. zz. fi 1 1 iw we Sift i The Chandler hex-poor Pomoan!

SPORTING a squad with plenty of class, frosh coach Roy Dennis gleefully planted the frosh championship trophy in the College Union award case last November. Only loss of the year for the Bengal freshmen came in the opener, a 7-6 defeat from Citrus J. C. From then on, they were never stopped, rolling to a 26 to 14 win over Redlands, a 20 to 7 triumph over Caltech, and then salvaging some satisfaction for returning alumni with a 20 to 7 win from Pomona. Captain Hoyt Smith and swivel-hipped Bill Bonhall were the big offensive guns for the greenies. This was the first frosh football championship in several years. h Football WE REMEMBER . . . grear porenrialiries . . . sink ir Tweedie! . . . floor burns eliminated . . . poor Tech . . . off the floor in leather soles . . . sink ir Tweedie . . . it's okay,ref . . . timeout . . . reserved seats for the faculty . . . they had a band . . . bouncing leather . . music at half-time . . . sink it Tweedie!

'E I Y l Board of Jmztegy BEFORE an overliow crowd, as most are in Alumni gym, the Tiger hoopstets battled their way to a 39 to 3 l victory over Pomona in their first conference game of the year. Dick Galbraith, string bean junior, was high point man for the evening with a total of eleven points, while Phil Stephens held the highly-touted Johnny Dye to four. In the next conference contest, the locals bowed to another championship bound Redlands squad by a count of 25 to 19. Members of the local squad spent a major part of the evening trying to familiarize themselves with the expansive Bulldog gym. Returning home, the Bengals drubbed the Caltech Beavers on the following Tuesday. Jack Tweedie, red- thatched sophomore, found the hoop for eighteen points in leading the Oxy quintet to a 50 to 22 win. Rallying in the second half to overcome a 24 to 17 lead, the Whittier flea circus bit the Tigers with a 53 to 44 defeat on the Poet court in the next conference game. Despite Tweedie's again bucketing eighteen points, Pomona won the return engagement on the Hen court, 49 to 40. The Sagehens had to put on a last minute spurt to cop the contest, however. Phil Stephens played his usual sterling game and Johnny Moore marked ten digits. The following Friday found the Bengals on a scoring orgy, with Tweedie hooping twenty-five points. Close behind him for scoring honors was Tech sophomore Bill Fair, a long shot artist, who cotralled twenty-four points, most of which came by remote control. The score: 68-46. f Varsit Don Anderson Bill Barbee Keith Beebe johnny Broughten Tufeedie tip! Chapman IN THE second contest against Whittier, the Bengals went down, 49 to 41. As in the first game, the Poets were forced to over- come a Tiger half-time lead. Now in third place, the locals tangled with Redlands, and with themselves, in a home game. Nothing seemed to be right except Jack Tweedie's 19 points for high scoring honors. The undefeated Bulldogs won, 62 to 37.

The rain also forced the Bengals to miss the Long Beach Relays, which were postponed for a week because of bad weather. Therefore the Oxy spike season consisted of two meets-a triangular affair with Caltech and Whittier, and the annual dual meet with Pomona -the Southern California Conference Relays, and the circuit finals. In the finale the varsity spikesters were edged from second place by 1-6 of a point as Redlands tallied 54 1-2 to the locals' 54 l-3. Pomona won. 68 11.2 . I, Slairey takes a conference fini. Varslt Stu Brandel Harvey Caldwell lrack Season UPON reviewing the season, it is the opinion of many who have the good of Oxy athletic teams at heart that the coming of the rains was a bless- ing in disguise for the scanty-clacls. Caltech, which is usually just a workout for Oxy, upset the local forces 69M2 to 61 M2 in the first meet of the season. However, the Bengals came out on top in the three-way score by piling up 68 M2 digits to Tech's 62 M and Whittier's 52. Oxy took the dual meet with Whittier, 84 to 46. Outstanding athlete of the meet was sopho- more jack Geyer, who tallied 18 M points. Geyer won both hurdles, tied for first in the pole vault, and garnered points in the broad jump and high jump as well as running a bang-up lap on the relay team. Another sophomore, Paul Shirey, took both Sprints, while tiny Bob Ogle won the broad jump and tied for first in the pole vault and high jump.

COACH Bob Strehle's Pomona College outfit, the only unbeaten team in the conference, smothered Occidental, 88 to 45. Dick Strehle, the coach's son, was largely responsible for this, ably aided by Wiry Bob Fernandes. Strehle nabbed the high sticks, was second in the high jump, and third in the discus, javelin, and little barriers, while Fer- nandes won the javelin and broad jump and ran a lap on the winning relay team.

CONTINUING their drive for a sweep of freshman champion- ships, the frosh track squad, under the joint tutelage of Coaches Joe Pipal and Ralph Wood, ran roughshod over conference opposition this spring. In the first dual meet of the year the Bengals overcame Caltech 66 to 65 without running the relay. In this meet the Oxy greenies countered sweeps in the 100, both hurdles, and the javelin. Co- captain jack Bell led the way with 22 points, while sharer of the captaincy Clarke Brunson raced to a win in the high hurdles. In their only other dual meet the locals overwhelmed Pomona 78-55, sweeping the hurdle events and shot put. A third sched- uled dual meet, with the Redlands frosh, was forfeited when rain prevented the spikefest. The year's finale, the conference meet, saw the Bengals amass 66 points to Pomonals 34. Tech, Wfhittier, and Redlands trailed. This meet was featured by the record breaking pole vault of jack Price, who scaled 12 feet 6 inches for a new conference frosh record. Coach Pipal is looking forward to a great varsity in 1942. frosh lrack Dick Baker Bob Bonhall John Broughten 74 i Baseball GREETING the largest turnout of his reign as Oxy baseball coach, Bill Anderson whipped his boys into shape between showers and set about bringing home a conference championship. After winning a majority of their three practice games, the Bengals started their league season with an avalanche of base hits to trip Pomona 11-7 and 8-3 in a double header. In the first game Johnny Broughten hurled three-hit ball, but throwing arms still suffered from early season kinks and errors were responsible for six runs. Willie Davis, starting on third base, whacked out a home run his first time at bat to send the Bengals on their way. Dick Moffat also collected a homer, while Dick Baker twirled consistent ball for a win in the second game.

RETURNING to the home pasture, the Tigers tangled with the defending champion Redlands team and lost a 3 to 1 decision. The second game was halted after one scoreless inning, when the rains came. Again, the Tigers spoiled a couple of scoring opportunities, and errors didn't help. Members of last year's team back for another season include Skipper Scoles, Johnny Broughten, Clayton jenkins, Bob Bonhall, Dave Gates, and Bob Parker, who was out for the first half of the season with a sprained ankle.

Three of the four Caltech games were lost by close margins, with inopportune injuries to key players having a direct bearing on the results. Willie Davis suffered a sprained ankle which kept him out for the balance of the season, and Dick Moffat, Jack Scoles, and Clayton Jenkins were forced to miss important games because of various incapacities. An unusual feature of the team batting averages was the fact that the two starting pitchers, Johnny Broughten and Dick Baker, led their mates by comfortable margins. Other men who ranked high in the conference hitting records were Dick Moffat, Jack Scoles, and Clayton Jenkins. Broughten also led the circuit in strikeouts and finished with a won and lost record of 3 and 3. A representative starting lineup consisted of Jenkins, Gates, and San- tigian in the outfield, Parker, Bonhall, Davis or Holzer, and Scoles holding down the infield, Moffat and Scoles alternating behind the plate, and Broughten and Baker sharing the mound duties.

In the early season, the Tigers dropped close contests to Fullerton J. C. and the U. S. C. varsity, and returned to defeat Black Foxe and the S. C. frosh. With the approach of the conference season, it looked as though Caltech would again be the team to beat for the league crown.

Sammy Lee Bob Scoles Bill Snider Evans Ward 80 Swimmin LITTLE Sammy Lee, personable Korean diving star, traveled to East Lansing and Ann Arbor, Michigan, to compete in the one and three meter diving events at the N. C. A. A. and A. A. U. national cham- poinships. In his first appearance at the nationals, Sammy copped a third and fourth in the diving events, and seems a good choice for top ranking next year. VETERANS on this year's team included breast stroker Bob Arth, Bill Snider in the distances, and Evans Ward. Addi- tional strength came from the perform- ances of Al Irish in the 100 and 440, Merle Harthorn and Johnny Lepick in the back stroke, and Pete Kellaway and Bob Malcolm in the sprints. sh Swlmmln ACTING in a manner that was consistent for frosh athletic teams this past year, the swimming team seemed well on its way to another championship. As in varsity swimming, Caltech was the team to beat for the crown. Leading performers on the squad were Dick Jackson in the sprints and Bill Millikan in the breast stroke, who seemed destined to crack some records around Taylor Pool during the next three years. Jess Morgan teamed with jackson for an airtight sprint combination, while Fred Nihart and Jim Kendall held forth in the distance races. Charles Barratt competed in the 100 and 220, while Keith Spaulding did yeoman duty in the backstroke and diving. When talking swimming, Coach Dennis' eyes brightened as he envisioned the return of the conference pennant to Taylor Pool, where it might have stayed, but for a few tough breaks. jim Kendall Fred Niharr Dick Jackson Charles Barratt, Jess Morgan, Keith Spaulding.

An innovation this year was the sponsorship of a series of co-educational recreation nights during the year in conjunction with the O Club. The organi' zation hopes that through these events they may effect a stronger spirit of friendship between the men and the women of the student body, and also afford instructive activity for those who are interested in physical education. As is customary, the W. A.

Barbara East, associate editor l94l la lncina DEAR STAFF: La Enema 1941 . . . From the Lair of the Occidental Tiger. This year we have attempted to do the ridiculous and the sublime together, we have tried to merit a place in posterityls gallery for our year-book. It has been an attempt to achieve modernity by producing an annual truly of the students. We have tried to bring our activities together under one head-La Emma, by bringing its coverage close to home to show the diversified domestic activities of the Occidental Tiger. My own part has been small compared to yours-only to supervise the theme and the general layout. Yours has been great, that of producing and coordinating all the sections. The real power behind the throne, Barbara East, an inspired, vivacious, and tireless whip-handler, deserves measureless gratitude and praise from the students. Photo editor Zeanette Moore was complete master of her difficult task-that of untangling the knotted strings of the portrait schedules and complexities of the organization photos. To Jim Tillery, former editor of The Occidental, the Sports section owes its existence. His was the job of planning and producing the entire Athletics division. To advertising managers Bob Arth and Walt Bodger, whose by-line was constantly, I've been kicked out of lots of better places, goes all due credit for handling the mercenary business connected with publishing La Enema. Copying a dummy is far from the most pleasant job one might set about, but these persistent artists deserve praise for their labors: Janet Dunham, Helen Winter, Regina Coles, Barbara Culbert, Barbara Wanzer, and Kenny Kendall. Another artist, jane Fleming, deserves much credit for her clever little Tigers. Thanks too goes to Willard Dean and Dick Kratz for many of the pictorial photos of the book. Appreciation is sincere for the writings of Nihla Stowe, jim Kendall, jack Geyer, the Tucker twins, Ted Tajima, and Stina Sternlov. In conclusion, heartfelt thanks to the ever-smiling little trouble-shooter, Liz Whitney, who never failed to cheer when the going got tough. Again to all of you and to the many whose names may not appear here, but whose work was invaluable, and most especially again to Barbara East, I offer deepest gratitude and sincere admiration.

Winner of the annual Southern California Intercollegiate Glee Club contest, this year held at Redlands, the Men's Glee presented many fine programs throughout California. A finishing touch to the annual spring tour, which took the club up through the state to Carson City, Nevada, and to San Francisco, was the four-day engage- ment in the Mural Room of the St. Francis Hotel in the Bay City. The outstanding activity on campus was the successful Home Concert. In conjunction with the speech department, the music department presented the opera, Robin Hoodf' in which glee club soloists played important roles. Ofhcers: Bill Faith, president, N.

In following a route similar to that of the Men's Glee, the Women's Glee Club presented a fine array of programs in Santa Barbara and the Northern California district. In addi- tion to this were the Home Concert, presented in March, and the opera, Robin Hood, presented in May, in which performers from the organization depicted leading roles.

' 7 THE MEN'S and Women,s Quartets have brought both pleasure and reputation to the college by their activities during the past year. In addition to having appeared at all too infrequent events, they are in constant demand by groups and organizations for outside engagements. Under the tutelage of director Howard Swan, the men, Bob Will, Don Huston, Doug Murray, and Jack Rowell, as well as the women, Eleanor Chittick, Mary Helen Rowe, Lela Bess Mann, and Ruth Springer, have become an integral part of the music and culture about the Occidental music department. As accom panists for the two groups, there have been two talented pianists, Clyde Zulch, who performed for the men, and Betty Ruth Cortelyou, who shared honors with the women's quartet. Besides having been frequently called upon by numerous service clubs, the groups have become an expected part of the glee club performances.

Following this performance came the clever Trapp familyg Margaret Keuhne, talented young violinistg Artur Rubinstein, famous pianistg the great Russian Don Cossack Choirg and the lovely colored soprano, Dorothy Maynor.

The main function of the group was singing in the President's chapel on Thursdays. It is organized entirely by students, with William Talley as student director. Beside singing for the chapel, this double quartet had many outside engagements, singing before churches, service clubs, and many other groups. The Chapel Choir is composed of eight members, the combined men's and women's quar- tets. Members are Mary Helen Rowe, Eleanor Chattick, Lela Bess Mann, and Ruth Springer of the womenls quartet, and Don Huston, Doug Murray, Bob Will, and Jack Roell of the men's quartet.

Only those who have rendered themselves eligible by some outstanding contri- bution to the college are considered, and to be chosen for the award on Tap Day is excellent proof of an outstanding under- graduate record in all phases of a collegiate life. The group's avowed purpose is to assist in maintaining and furthering wher- ever possible the ideals and traditions of Occidental College. Under the leadership of Bill Faith, the club this year acted in the capacity of a clearing house for Occidental traditions and pushed plans for the completion of the long-talked-about- O -on-the- hill.

The safekeeping of the ancient Oxy Tiger, symbol of many glorious victories, and the conducting of funeral services for the Pomona Sagehen, which hasn't been done in three years, are included in the organization's duties. Under the leadership of president Alden Olsen, vice-president Don Huston, secretary Phil Stephens, and treasurer Burt jones, four other sophomores made up this year's group, which included intercollegiate meetings along with its ordinary functions. 115 DeDe Harvey, Dorothy Clayton, Burt Jones, Karl Crist Virginia Henry Gardner Eikenberry. s --': 'f WITH DeDe Harvey at the helm, this year's Bengal Board will long be remembered for its fostering of pep and school spirit on the Occidental campus. Through the interest aroused in the rallies, the support at all athletic events had a record-breaking year. The annual Tiger Caravan to Santa Barbara was one of the longest in the school's history, and for the first time an organized cheering section was held during basketball games. The climax of the successful student entertainment was the traditional Po- mona rally, with the freshman-built bonfire and Dr. Chandler's Hymn of Hate the keynotes of the evening. DeDe Harvey and Karl Crist carried on the cheer-leading chores during the football season. 116 - , 5 Phi lpsilun Ilapp Preridenh' William Faithg Jpomorr: Mr. Carl Trieb, Mr. William Andersong memberr: Ben Brown, Syd Brown, Jasper Chasson, Willard Goodhue, Richard Manson, James Moradian, Robert Ogle, Robert Ransom, Edwin Richards, William Thompson, James Van Nada, William Zazueta.

These meetings are planned by one of the three student directors, who with a secretary constitute the officers. Directors this year were Betty Forrester, Bing Bingham, and Corinna Harvey, Eva Jane Moffitt serving as secretary. The year closes with the annual banquet in June, honoring the graduating members of the organization. 9 Phi Kappa Alpha PHI KAPPA ALPHA, honorary economics fraternity, is significant on the Occidental campus for its purpose of stimulating an inter- est in economics, and providing an opportunity for the discussion of economic principles, problems, and policies. This year the group met each month in the Green room for luncheon or dinner, and under the able advisership of Dr. john Parke Young and president George Kent, held timely round table discussions of problems of interest or importance. Membership is limited- being chosen from juniors and seniors whose major or minor Helds of study are in economics, and who have attained a specified scholastic requirement.

HOLDING bi-monthly meetings to discuss subjects of significant philosophical interest at the home of Dr. Fitch, faculty adviser, the Philosophy Club with Harvey Harper president provided a valuable outlet to student philosophers. This year's meetings in- cluded debates by Drs. Brighouse, Mitchell, and McKelvey. 127 Mr. Burclaeller, Jpomor Memberr' Dorothy Clayton, Charlotte Clary, George Cleland, Karl Crist, John Badgley, john DeSerpa, B a r In a r a Ea s t , Evelyn Hughes, Burton Jones, Barbara Kennedy, Verda Mackey, Virginia Mozingo, George Nader, Marjorie Noble, Mary Helen Rowe, Ed Simon, Betty Lee Van Werden, Eugene White, Dick Wilson, Betty Lou Vrooman, Betty Fairchild. 128 Pla ers LED BY DeDe Harvey, the Occidental Players climaxed another year of entertainment with the presentation of Noel Coward's Hay Fever, a scintillating comedy surrounding a Bliss -ful weekend. The cast: Barbara East, Peter Kellaway, Jayne Hill, and DeDe Harvey. This organization serves the double purpose of providing entertainment to the student body and the friends of Occidental and of affording opportunity to those students interested in drama to participate in presenting plays. During the winter season the Players sponsored a production of Henrik Ibsen's The Masterbuildern as part of the Artist and Lecture Series. Fritz Leiber, star of stage and screen, was guest artist at the performance. He was assisted by DeDe Harvey, Charlotte Clary, Virginia Mozingo, Douglas Murray, Dick Can- nicott, and Rosemary Stinton. The Work during the year was continued by giving the students a glimpse of medieval life in Gammer Gurton's Needle. A series of one-act plays was presented, and much publicity was given Occidental by a troupe of Players presenting Hot Lemon- ade at neighboring high schools. The last effort of the year was the production of the light opera Robin Hood. Ear! emotei. Leiber, The Marterbuilder ff: .ll Pu. EL!! Debate llrator OCCIDEN TAL forensic activity, under the direction of Coach Al Lannom, has included a full season of intercollegiate debating, e xtemporaneous speaking, oratory, and in- terpretive reading. The debate squad activities included par- ticipation in the Pepperdine tournament, where George Kent won a first, and the Bakersfield J. C. tournament, where Roger Owen took a third place ribbon. The lower division teams went to Stock- ton, and again to City College. George Kent took a second at the former, and Teen Lewis and Charlotte Ferris a third at the latter. Coach Al Lannom, former Occidental student and a champion in his own right, accomplished much in leading his teams on to greater victories.

L33 H. C. McClellen vice president Donald Odell, president Howard Gates, secretary WITH president Don Odell, '19, at the helm, the Occidental Alumni Association sailed through a turbulent sea of activity during the 1940-41 season. Oiiicers Harold C. McClellan, vice-president, Doris Fowler Hoak, '24, and the man behind the news, alumni secretary Howard Gates, '32, led the group to the most active year of its existence. History's largest and most colorful Homecoming Day was sponsored on November 17, followed by the traditional Homecoming dinner and dance. Completing the year with Alumni Day, june 7, the association has seen many advances. An Alumni Directory, listing all graduates has been started, five issues of the Occidental Alumnus published, and the Alumni Scholarship Fund furthered. During the year Dr. Remsen D. Bird, president of the college, and Secretary Gates made numerous trips to outlying cities to hold Alumni gatherings, bringing and exchanging news of the college and its graduates. Hail Alma Mater Nurses Kuhn and Bird lmmnns NURSES Myra Bird and Susan Kuhn assisted by the college physi' cians, assume the role of good samaritans during the college year, administering to the physical and mental failings of ailing colle- gians. The Emmons Memorial Infirmary, a neat, white building astride College Hill, commands a vista of the entire campus, and serves its daily quota of pills and panacea to those who come for succor. There is a friendly atmosphere to the place which invites the occasional lagger to become suddenly indisposed on that Blue Book Monday morning. As a matter of statistical information, the Infirmary administers to the needs of about two hundred in cases per college year, and an almost incalcuable amount of minor cuts and bruises. S. C. A. 4 Karl Crist FOLLOWING a threefold purpose the Student Christian Association functions to coordinate the religious activities of Oxy students, to vitalize the religious life of the individual students, and to cooperate with college Christian movements in Southern California and the nation. The groups many activities culminated in the Religious Emphasis Week in which Dr. Aaron Ungersma of the San Francisco Theological Sem- inary was the highlight. First semester officers were Karl Crist, presi- dent, Phyllis Aden, vice-president, and June Cook, secretary.

Rushing this year was based more on the honor spirit than the usual intense cognizance of rules. During the rushing period informal discussions were held for all new women to explain the various aspects of sorority life. Accomplishments for the year included the development of a new type of date card, revised rules for hell week, and taking an active part in the Inter-fraternity, Pan-Hellenic banquet. Guided by president jean McDowell, the group, composed of the six sorority presidents, brought a successful year to a close with a spring formal held this year at the Midwick Country Club.

This year's greatest step forward was the series of exchange dinners designed to promote a spirit of friendliness between the various houses. Between semesters, council president Bob Arth and a group of delegates attended the Pacific Coast Inter-frater- nity Conference held at Corvalis, Oregon. During the spring semester the council aided in the organization of the Southern California Inter-fraternity banquet at the Shrine Auditorium. As is customary, the biggest event of the year was the highly successful Inter-fraternity dance held at the Beverly Hills Hotel.

Now A STEADY stream of activity emanates from the residence halls, more commonly called dorms, where live those students not staying at home or in fraternity or sorority houses. A composite of the various segments of college life make up the dorm activity. In the early hours of the day a tiny rivulet of students, bleary eyed, emerges from the dorms, becomes a torrent, then calms again as nightfall finds the wanderers wending their ways to bed. During the in-betwen hours modern Dianas bronze on Erdman and Haines balconies, radios blare from open windows of Swan, and ping-pong balls rattle through the halls of Wylie. The living room of Ort becomes a dance floor for the swing-conscious. Brightly burning, flickering, then slowly fading, one by one the lights go out as study period is followed by cokes at the Cooler until remain only those who burn the midnight oil. Swan Hall COMMOTION-CENTER of the campus, Swan Hall vibrated with door-slamming, swing music, and shower-bath vocalizing. In the Black Hole of Calcutta corridor battles, water fights, and room stackings refused to baffle head resident Mrs. Marsh. Highlights of the year were Sunday night bull sessions and the formal dinner at the Deau- ville Club. Led by Dick jackson, prexy, Swan men have turned their abundant energies to every aspect of college life. Top men's dorm in scholarship and consistent winners in intramural sports, they have been an outstanding group of all-around men. Time out.

From then on, outstanding campus leaders living in the new dorm made Wylie an integral part of the campus.

The layouts for the book were the work of Vince Newcomer of the Metropolitan Engravers with the assistance of the editor and Miss Barbara East. To Tom Eastman of the same house goes credit for the art work on the division pages. Most of the photo- graphic material was taken by Philip Sterling Trevor, aided by Dick Kratz. The cover design was created by the editor and put into usable form by Earle Gray, bookbinder. Our thanks to Mr. Lawrence Cook for the use of the Midori photos. Thanks is given in quantity to the all-night printers association of the Abbey San Encino: Ken Harpster, Johnny Harris, Frank Masley, all of whom habitually watched both the sun and moon rise through the print-shop windows. Jack Browne deserves highest praise for ceaseless effort in keeping things moving and goading lagging schedules into ordered action. To Ray Gough, our thanks for help in putting the baby to bed after numerous all-night sessions. Presswork on La Emma was done by the Wm. B. Straube Printing Co. of Los Angeles. Finally we wish again to give sincere thanks to Barbara East, editor of La Encimz 1942, for her patience and immeasurable, untiring assistance. Also appreciation to Al Rogers of Metropolitan Engravers, Ltd., for his ever ready advice and information. To all of those who participated in the publishing of La Encimz 1941 , our heartfelt thanks. in , L i I ' ' V SX XX I 1 xx I I x . Il il xx L' .. --'. h If I :f -x..J'.A..'
