Olivet College 1933 Member of college faculty 1933-1937. When they ring the golden bells for you and me PROFESSOR FRED CARLTON BIRCHARDβ€” 1909-1937 Behind this desk is one who has ob- served the lives of over three hundred students this year. His message to these students is love and faith in God and neighbors. His poise in the midst of per- plexing problems has heartened all of us to face the shadows of life as real men and women. This one who has borne the burdens of school administration and student life is our friend and president, Dr. T. W. Willingham. PRESIDENT T. W. WILLINGHAM IRENE PEAKE PRICE Piano CHARLES V.

SMITH Philosophy β€” Greek O I i v c t o g r a m The first semester this year three hundred and fourteen students registered, making the largest enrollment in the history of Olivet Col- lege. Ninety-eight of these students enrolled in the college fresh- man class. Thirty-nine students either disenrolled during the semes- ter or dropped out at the close. However, seventeen more students made up for this loss by registering for the second semester, making a total registration for the year of 331. The unbelievable happened last fall when the dormitories were filled, and the administration refused admittance to eligible students because there was no room to house them. The women students were housed in the large dormitory, Canaan Hall, and most of the men students found accommodations in the five residence halls pro- vided for them. Many students rented private rooms or resided in the town. Alto- gether, there were students residing in forty-five separate houses and residence halls in and near the community of Olivet. The financial standing of the school is very good. Last year the school reported a profit in school operations amounting to $10,940.00. This profit was absorbed in the purchase of some of the men ' s residence halls. The teachers are paid in full, every month, and the school has made a number of substantial additions to plant and equip- ment. One addition was made to the faculty this year in the department of science. The administration anticipates adding two new members to the faculty before the begin- ning of the next school term. Truly, the Lord has been with us. Last fall the school was greatly strengthened by a refreshing revival, and during the winter months a wholesome spiritual atmosphere prevailed. This year has been a good year for Olivet. Students: We trust that you have learned while at Olivet College one of life ' s great lessons, thai is, to live one day at a time. If you could write your autobiography at the dawn rather than at the sunset of your life, then you might block out your time for a half century. Since you can not tell what tomorrow has in store, live today well. The scriptures constantly bear this out β€” Search the scriptures daily . Do not in post-college days allow yourselves to say, In the morrows I will read my Bible ; but day by day read God ' s Word. The devout and great ones of all ages have been like the apostles who daily were in the temple . Find a sanctuary and talk your prob- lems over with the Lord. Since a conversa- tion is an interchange of thoughts, do not be impolite by not permitting God to speak to you as well as you to Him. Exhort one an- other daily , and continue daily with one ac- cord . Keep peace and good will flowing out to all you meet, and never let the sun go down with any ill feeling toward any human. Constantly trust and believe Him for your daily bread . The sparrow-feeding God will not forget you from day to day; but since He does not always put the crumbs in the nest, be a hard worker. Take up His cross daily . Keep adjusting to His will, and never let a night find you with indecision in your heart as to your attitude to- ward God. With prayer, scripture-reading, trust and submission you can have a victorious and happy life, and may this be yours, Class of 1937. R. W. HERTENSTEIN YOUR COLLEGE PASTOR. THE RELIGIOUS EMPHASIS The Church of the Nazarene was founded in a revival and con- tinues to grow in a revival spirit. As a Nazarene school, Olivet has retained a wholesome spiritual atmosphere through the agency of God-given revivals. This year, our school has emphasized its faith in the doctrine of Holiness by the two special revival efforts that were made for the salvation of students and friends of the school. The effects produced from these meetings will endure in the lives of the many young men and women who attended the services. In the fall revival, the ministry of Rev. J. C. Lambert was greatly appreciated. His Spirit-filled messages backed by his sincere love for God and souls, proved a bless- ing and inspired the student body to a good start in the year ' s work. During the win- ter months, a spontaneous religious tide was on the student body, which came to a cli- max in a series of meetings in which a number of visiting preachers, including General Superintendent J. G. Morrison, participated. The Camp Meeting, which opened May 27 and closed June 6, was a fitting climax for the best spiritual year that Olivet has had thus far.

Designed primarily for more mature individuals who have felt the call to Christian service after the opportunities of high school training have passed, the Bibie School offers a full three-year course of Biblical, theological, and literary training. Within recent years this department has enjoyed a substantial numerical increase. From the Bible School ranks have come some of our most successful Christian workers, and they are now serving effectually on every district of our educational zone. 56 BIBLE SCHOOL SENIORS Vance Davison Spartan Gordon Blacklock Student Council Indian Rudy Ketterrmn Indian Raymond Canfield Spartan Frank Roney Spartan Ruth Jones Messiah Choir, Spartan Kenneth Suits Trojan Irwin F.

It provides, first, a recognized four-year high school curriculum in preparation for col- lege work. The physical equipment and course of instruction are in accord with the standards of the State of Illinois Department of Public Instruction. Secondly, the High School helps the student of high school age to form ideals and associations which will benefit him later in life. It provides religious training and Christian influences along with the high school work. This department, thirdly, provides an opportunity to the mature student, who in earlier years was deprived of a high school education, to complete his academic work with his Bible School course. 50 - HIGH SCHOOL SENIORS ONETA BARNETT Messiah Choir, Indian WAYNE COOPER Messiah, Choir, Spartan FREDERICK DENSMORE Trojan BLAIR FARRINGTON Indian VELMA HACHENBRACHT Trojan JOY HAMER Student Council Messiah Choir, Indian LILLIAN HENDERSON Messiah Choir, Music Club, Trojan MYRNA OYER Messiah Choir, Troian RACHEL TAYLOR Messiah Choir, Trojan DONALD ZIMMERLEE Messiah Choir, Spartan HIGH SCHOOL SENIORS WITHOUT PICTURES Elaine Crider Earl Pendleton Troian Trojan Halton Lewis Indian 00 HIGH SCHOOL JUNIORS JEAN WARNER -Messiah Choir, School Nurse, Indian MILDRED DAVIS Messiah Choir, Indian CORENA EBY Orchestra, Band, Indian DANIEL FIGGE Spartan JEAN FULLEN Messiah Choir, Indian RUTH GADDIS Messiah Choir, Indian VINCENT GADDIS Trojan MARJORIE GRANGER Messiah Choir, Indian ROBERT HERTENSTEIN Student Council, Messiah Choir, Trojan ERLENE MOOREHEAD Trojan MILDRED MILL1KAN Messiah Choir, Indian WALTER MOORE Orpheus Chorus, Messiah Choir, Spartan LENA MAE WALKER Messiah Choir, Spa. tan LENA PHILEBAUM Messiah Choir, Spartan 1)()N MORGAN Spartan ALMA WAY Messiah Choir, Trojan WILLIAM WHEAT Indian MARGARET BISHOP Messiah Choir, Spa t.in High School Juniors Without Pictures DOROTHY LING Trojan FLORENCE LING Trojan MARWYN FRITCI1 EK Spartan 61 β€” HIGH SCHOOL SOPHOMORES AND FRESHMEN SAMUEL PECK Trojan MIRIAM WILUNGHAM Messiah Choir, Spartan EULA REESE Messiah Choir, Spartan JOSEPHINE WISE Messiah Choir, Trojan HELEN PIDD Messiah Choir, Trojan LUCILLE HILL Spartan CLARENCE VASEY T- ro|an MORRIS CHALFANT Spartan NAOMI SADDIS Messiah Choir, Trojan WILLIAM BAREKMAN Spartan RICHARD BUSHEY Messiah Choir, Orchestra, Spartan LESTER SMITH Spartan NINA LAMB Messiah Choir Indian HERMAN PRICE Orchestra, Trojan HIGH SCHOOL SOPHOMORES AND FRESHMEN WITHOUT PICTURES GENEVA WOOD JAMES SCHULTZ Trojan Indian DORCAS BAUGHMAN Trojan 62 - SPECIAL STUDENTS FERN L.

PUBLICATIONS AURORA The Aurora, the aristocrat of Olivet ' s publications, makes its appearance once a year in new clothes and with a new outlook upon the life of Olivet College. It smiling- ly presents the different departments of the school in their various activities and gives a part of the life of every student with whom it has associated during the year. COLLEGIAN The Collegian comes out once each quarter, and after it has turned its four pages to Professor Howe for final aprov a!, it is dressed in pale yellow and folded. With a little brown stamp for a traveling companion, it goes for a ride with Uncle Sam, and gives information to our constitu- ency about the quarterly progress of the school. CAMPUS GHOST The Campus Ghost gives itself each day for the entertainment and knowledge of the students. The Ghost stalks in class rooms, library, parlour, dining room, and dormi tory, obtains its secret information and goes to Danny Torgrimson who then sneaks it into the Ghost Box each morning to dis- play the daily chatter. 09 AURORA STAFF The 1937 Aurora Staff is indebted to the many friends among the student body who have helped make this year ' s annual possible. We especially extend our thanks to Paul McCarthy, commercial art- ist in Danville for his assistance in mounting our pictures; to Francis Eudaly, artist in Seymour, Indiana, for his fine drawing of our school bell; to C. S. McClain and Robert Ryder, professors in Olivet for their valuable literary criticism, and to Laurence H. Howe, faculty advisor, for his counsel and assistance.

Howe Secretary Mary Green AURORA CONTEST When a G-Man and gangster meet, there is usually an automo- bile race or a fight, in either case bullets usually furnish the music. Gangster Danny and his accomplice Bernadine Langdon met G-Mar, Freddie, and his deputy Bonnie Mae Garris in the Chapel one day for a parley. The subject of the discussion was a new business, which had been started in Olivet, namely the 1937 Aurora. The G-Men being the lawful protectors of any legal business, providing they were paid enough, felt that it was their right to start the Aurora business off and escort it throughout the year. Gangster Danny, however, wanted to muscle in on the protective rights and donate his personal care for a goodly remuneration. G-Man Freddie warned the gangsters that he would clean them out if they tried to lay their fingers on the business. Bernadine didn ' t like what the law was saying so she whipped out a gun and blazed away to relieve her feelings. Then the war started, machine guns rattled, revolvers barked, and automatics cracked as each side tried to outdo the others in pep meetings and ball games. Bombs were sealed up with order blanks and sent through the mail, and the death notices soon came pouring in. Many notches went to the gangsters ' guns, but in the end law and order won out, and G-Man Freddie, Deputy Garris and their loyal G-Men won their picture in the final issue of the New Business. - 70 AURORA STAFF AURORA CONTEST WINNERS THE G-MEN 71 STUDENT COUNCIL Ever since the ugly, mischievous imps flew from Pandora ' s box, they have stung society with complaints, heartaches, chills, and high blood pressure. Therefore, when the seven o ' clock bell tolls students to study on the first Tuesday of each month, this body of Council under the leadership of Professor McClain meets in Room 13. Sug- gestions and complaints are brought to this organization and it is supposed to recommend some remedy for the bites of Pandora ' s imps which have caused students to disturb the library, cut the campus, steal the bell rope, swipe the Keep off the Grass signs, stack the parlor and dining room furniture, and abuse their social privileges by making the landing in the girls ' dorm. As a suggestive body, the council, consisting of two members from each depart- ment of the school, has been successful in making recommendations to the adminis- tration. Through recommendations of the council this year, students have been per- mitted to keep their lights on in their rooms indefinitely for purposes of study, and programs have been given each week in the dining hall. As the voice of the Students the council has an important place in the program of the administration of Olivet c ollege. HONOR SOCIETY ' β€’ Iff While the less studious under-graduates of Olivet are breath- plgSti ing loudly with the covers tucked up under their chins, or sipping ilwJ Wk Coca-Colas and devouring hamburgers at the Wagon wheel with their latest date, these intellectual individuals are doing the same things; yet through the happy knack they have of swooping up knowledge on the run as a train does water, they managed to get their little blue cards decorated with the coveted A ' s and B ' s. These whom you see in the picture all have an average above B and compose the Honor Society. This organization, which started last year, has grown from a charter membership of 20 to the present membership of 35. The society serves a two-fold purpose: to encourage high scholarship and to give recognition to worthy students. Through its efforts Olivet College now ranks well scholastically with other colleges. 7Z STUDENT COUNCIL HONOR SOCIETY β€” 73 β€” INTERCOLLEGIATE DEBATE, 1936-1937 WfttMft ' ne P ar ' our radio, one Saturday evening, announced that Sta- β€’ JBP SsP tiΒ° n WCFL, Chicago, was very happy to present St. Viator and Oli- vet College who desired to settle the question in a friendly way as to whether or not the American people should be bothered with a sys- tem of sales taxation. Each side presented their arguments, and then left the decision to the listening public as to the desirability of such a system. This question was perhaps a safety valve to divert the minds of the debaters from the main mid-western debate question which was Resolved, That the extension of Consumers ' Cooperatives would promote the public welfare. During the first week in January, the debate squads celebrated the New Year by participating in an invitational fray at Illinois State Normal in Bloomington. There were no less than three hundred debaters from the mid-western colleges and univer- sities. When the contestants extracted themselves from the tangle, Olivet ' s veterans rejoiced to find themselves among the victorious twenty-five percent. Consumed with a great desire for practice, Olivet ' s masculine teams exchanged thrusts with the teams of St. Viator College, DePaul University, and Wheaton College in Chicago. Soon after this bit of skirmishing, Olivet ' s men and women ' s teams crossed swords points with Illinois Wesleyan, Millikan University, Greenville College. and Illinois College in a Junior Tournament at Eastern Illinois State Normal. The women of Millikan and Olivet clashed again in a practice debate just to relieve their emotions. The Debate Wars closed with the Conference debates held at Peoria, March I 2 and I 3. Olivet won six battles out of a possible sixteen, the men and women winning three victories each. The schools which fell before their onslaught were, Illinois State Normal, Monmouth, Greenville, Millikan, and Wheaton. Our debaters came home, and averted a civil war only by a compromise which was, Resolved, That the extension or abolition of Consumers ' Cooperatives shall never more affect our sleep. The school extends its appreciation to Professor McClain for his valuable guidance to a successful showing on the forensic battle field this year. 74 - MEN ' S DEBATE TEAMS WOMEN ' S DEBATE TEAMS 75 MUSIC CLUB Promising musicians, through the work of this organization, have had an opportunity this year to display their talents, and to become acquainted with the pleasures and discomforts of concert playing. In accordance with its purpose to deepen appreciation of its mem- bers for music, this club has presented many interesting programs portraying the lives and works of famous composers. Beautiful Sweden, the home of much inspiration for poetry and music, was made real to the student body when the club snonsored a iecture by Rev. Nylin, pastor of the First Methodist Church at Oakwood, Illinois, who showed lantern slides of a tour which he made with a Swedish chorus. This organization increased this year from last year ' s twenty charter members to a membership of fifty-seven. For this splendid increase in music appreciation, credit is due to Linnea Henderson, the president, and to the faculty sponsors, Mrs. H. H. Price, and Professor and Mrs. W. B. Larsen. PHILATHEAN LITERARY SOCIETY f ' JflttpBPg When a man bites a dog, that ' s news. So goes an old saying, PMsΒ§Β§5r but w ' - n students go for literature in a big way, wHI, that ' s news, too. Because of conflicting school activities some of the programs were postponed. However, when Herman Kendall, playing the part of John Alden, made love to Bonnie Mae Garris, who played the part of Priscilla, first making love for Miles Standish, and then for him- self, he made the presentation of The Courtship of Miles Standish a great hit. A curiosity to discover strange facts led to a series of programs presented as Believe It or Not in Literature. Near the close of the sea- son, the Society combined intellectual pursuits with physical endeavor, and ambled away on a hike. Through the efforts of the president, Dallas Goff, the model ' 37 Literary Society was a stream-lined success. So, here ' s to more stream-lining for next year. β€” 76 - MUSIC CLUB PHILATHEAN LITERARY SOCIETY β€” 77 β€” ORPHEUS CHORUS y JfaiD gg Orpheus, 1 he mythical Thracian poet, never moved nature any vaP SSS iii more than the 1937 Orpheus Chorus has moved the emotions of the audiences to whom it it has sung, in the choir robos of O.ivet ' s purple and gold, the chorus appeared more colorful than it did in the eve- ning gowns and tuxedos of last year. During the year, the chorus ap- peared in a number of school and church programs. The high spot of the year was hit when the chorus made its annual tour over the educational zone. The chorus gave concerts in our churches in Columbus, Ohio: Lansing and Grand Rapids, Michigan; Gary, Indiana; and Chicago, Illinois. The program this year consisted of anthems, hymns, and Negro Spirituals. Among the best received songs were A Chorister ' s Prayer by Mueller, Bless the Lord, O My Soul by Ippolitoff-lvanhoff, Rose of Sharon by Palmer, The Old Fashioned Meeting arranged by Mrs. Larsen, Swing Low Sweet Chariot and Ride- On King Jesus by Smith and Aschenbrenner. Special numbers were rendered by Wayne I home, trombone soloist, Robert Condon, baritone soloist, and the quartet consisting of Arthur Long, Orville Logsdon, Hallie Foster, and Robert Condon. Much credit is due Professor Larsen, director, and Mrs. Larsen, accompanist, for the entirely unselfish and gracious manner in which they have carried on their excellent work. MESSIAH CHOIR Some one said, Where two or three singers are gathered to- gether, there they will sing the ' Messiah ' . This year, two hundred students gathered together once each week under the leadership of Professor Larsen to rehearse this masterpiece of sacred music liter- ature written by the great musician Handel. The reward of such faith- ful work was a splendid rendition which surpassed the average pres- entation of this great masterpiece. This was the premiere performance of the year at Olivet, and the immortal arias and great choruses of the oratorio, became a source of great in- spiration and blessing to the large audience of commencement week visitors. Some of these great choruses were WORTHY IS THE LAMB, BEHOLD THE LAMB OF GOD, the soul-lifting HALLELUJAH, and arias such as And the Glory of the Lord, Glory to God, Surely He Hath Borne Our Griefs, Lift Up Your Heads, O Ye Gates, and Since By Man Came Death. The soloists who contributed much to the success of this inspiring presentation were Lois Walker, soprano, Naomi Larsen, Meizo soprano, Bresee Westmoreland, tenor, and David Anderson, bass. 78 β€” ORPHEUS CHORUS a f)J O. fs €] o MESSIAH CHOIR 79 β€” ORCHESTRA A formal concert in the College Chapel on April 26th and the annual Commencement concert on the 29th of May completed the performances of another fine season by this organization. The or- chestra also gave concerts in the First Church of the Nazarene in Danville, and in the First Methodist Church in Chrisman. The personnel of the organization was larger than that of any preceding year, consisting of thirty-five members. Among those who contributed to this successful season were Dorothy Ewald, con- cert artist,, Wayne Thorne, trombone soloist, Howard Sylvia, trumpet soloist, and Herman Price, violin soloist. A violin quartet added greatly to the program; it con- sisted of Dorothy Ewald, Corena Eby, Corinne Riddell, and Viola Roberts. The program consisted of the following numbers: March E. H. Berg Minuet Caprice, op. I Harry Kingen Enchanted Night Max Dramm The Clock in the Toy Shop A Novelty Number Based on Melodies by Lemont and Kullak Gypsie Trail Overture Max Fisher Adoration Felix Borowski Unfinished Svmphony Schubert Allegro Moderato Andente Con Moto The orchestra owes much of its success to the untiring efforts of Mrs. H. H. Price who has ably directed it. BAND y JfJUJ E The band has had a successful year due to the splendid co-ope r - i aP ISS i ation of its members and the efficient leadership of its director, Wayne Thorne. A consistent membership of twenty-three players, embracing an unusually balanced instrumentation for a school with the enrollment of Olivet, has given the band added distinction this year. For the first time in the history of the band, it has been or- ganized on a class basis, having rehearsals on Tuesday and Thursday for one hour each evening. The repertoire has included a quite varied quality of band music; marches, waltzes, overtures, suites, and hymns. Some of the outstanding numbers were: two marches, On the Mall by Goldman and El Capitan by Sousa, a selection from Bohemian Girl, Cowboy Wedding, Pomp and Circumstance by Elgar, Sacred Overture, by Elgar, and Atlantic Suite by Saprauack. The band has played for Sunday School, Church, and School programs. The an- nual Spring Concert on May 6th and Commencement Week concerts in June com- pleted the year ' s work. Among those who contributed individually to the success of the year were Howard Sylvia, cornet soloist, Wayne Thorne, trombone soloist, and Wynn Weiss, Harold Fitzgerrel, Bernard Amore, and Howard Sylvia, members of the Brass Quartet. The organization holds forth for a still more prosperous year in 1938. - 80 - ORCHESTRA BAND β€” 81 β€” STUDENT PASTORS Serving, I Live Olivet ' s prospective ministry has had a fine year of revivals and fruitful church services. These stu- dents have had the privilege of applying their school work to prac- tical Christian service in the following churches: Chrisman, III Mrs. L. Peters Fairmount, III Walter Greek Fithian, III Walter Moore Hillsboro, Ind Irwin Younger Howard, Ind Paul Tucker Kurtz, Ind James Morris Logansport, Ind Daniel Figge Lyons, III Tracy McCord Metcalf, III Reginald Berry Number Eleven, Ind....

Toliver St. Bernice, Ind Harold Johnston State Line, Ind Ruth Jones Tennessee Valley, Ind Earl Keener Vance Lane, III Kenneth Hutchinson Westville, III Paul Bryant MISSIONARIES Say not ye, there are yet four months then cometh the harvest? Behold I say unto you, lift up your eyes, and look on the fields for they are white already to harvest. These students have responded to the call of God to foreign service, and early in their school life they have lifted their eyes to prepare for the whitened harvest. Their lot is not that of unbearable sacrifice, but that of a reasonable service. Some day some of these will be the mouthpiece of Olivet and the church. Let us pray for them as they prepare to join the Foreign Legion in the service of Christ and the Church. - 82 - STUDENT PASTORS β– β–  ' β–  β–  β–  .. β– β–  ' : β–  ' ' - ,% .%??; M- Ok MISSIONARIES 83 β€” LECTURE-MUSIC COURSE The Olivet College Lecture-Music Course, which was sponsored for its second season this year by Professor Howe, opened on December 10 with Wallace Bruce Amsbary. In the lecture entitled The Saving Grace of Humor, Mr. Ams- bary advocated the chuckle as a cure-all medicine for many of the ills of life. He illustrated his lecture with stories and ori- ginal poems in the French-Canadian dia- lect. In the second number on January 21, Sam Campbell, the philosopher of the for- est, entertained with full colored movies and a lecture concerning the wild-animal life on his sanctuary in Wisconsin. Next on February 2, Noah Beilharz, the master make-up artist, presented for the second year in the Olivet Chapel, Eggles- ton ' s story, The Hoosier Schoolmaster. By rapid make-up transformations, Mr. Beilharz prseented the story and all its characters, from little Sharkey to the local belle who had been out to Bosting. On March 12, the DePauw University Choir of Greencastle, Indiana, came in its big red and blue bus, and after a merry meal in the dining hall, gave a program of two divisions that evening. In the first division the choir in black and white robes gave appropriate musical illustrations to a lecture delivered by the conductor, Dean McCutcheon, on the history of camp-meeting music; in the second, the choir in tux- edos and brightly colored evening gowns presented some secular numbers. In the last number on March 19, Dr. Ethan Colton, former Inter- national Secretary of the Y. M. C. A. and an experienced European traveler, gave his lecture on the Four Patterns of Revolution. From first-hand information Dr., Colton spoke of Communism, Fascism Nazism, and the New Deal. NOAH BEILHARZ, IMPERSONATOR As ole Mrs. Means in The Hoosier Schoolmaster All numbers on the lyceum course were well attended, and there seems to be a strong interest in a similar course for next year. 84 β€” GYMNASIUM An ancient glass maker one time was making some beautiful glass vessels. He had only to place them in the last heating oven to temper them so that they would not easily shatter. However, being tired from his work, he placed them on a tray by his chair; and sit- ting down, he fell asleep and dreamed about the riches he would get from the sale of his artistic work. His sleeping muscles drew his leg up and then relaxed it into a kick, which shattered the vessels into small grains of broken glass. He lost his beautiful works of art, and his dream was destroyed by the rude awakening. The central Educational Zone is making beautiful Christian lives in Olivet, bu+ these lives need to be tempered by sound bodies before they can be presented to the world for useful service. To meet this need the zone is endeavoring to raise $25,000.00 this year for a new gymnasium. Three of the districts, Missouri, Wiscon- sin-Upper Michigan, and Chicago have already paid 40% of their total amount as- sumed, and in the other districts a majority of the churches have been reached with good results. Now is the crucial time. The temptation will be to sleep and to dream after hard work. If our friends in this zone dream, they will shatter the hopes of the school for a gymnasium. What may the students of Olivet expect? Can they look forward to next year with reasonable confidence that the much-needed gymnasium will be a reality? β€” 85 MEN ' S BASKETBALL SPARTANS The Spartan five charged out on the field of battle last fall to maneuver the old cowhide from man to man and to slip it through the loop for a score in the ; r favor. These players fought hard, every man putting his best into the play. Hutchinson and Chalfant guarded the home net well, snatching the flying sphere from many a confident opponent. Sylvia and Daniels held the forward line and Ken- dall tipped the ball from center. When the scores were counted, the Spartan veter- ans stood beaten in score but not in spirit. The outlook for next season is good since four of the five players will be ready to pass the ball next year. INDIANS The Indian braves, champions for the last three years, danced out to take the scalps of the Spartans and Trojans. The silver cup had been a lucky token, and the Indians were out to keep it. However, this year they were nosed out by the Trojans who played some classy ball. Because of their fast running and accurate shooting the braves won three out of their six conference games. Those who donned the war-dress this year were Whitcanack, center; Meier and Fitzger- rel, forwards; and Hertenstein and Chalfant, guards. The Indians ' outlook for next year is good, for they will not lose any of their regulars by graduation. TROJANS The tall Trojans marched out on the floor ready to annihilate with one step any Indian or Spartan who should chance to fall beneath their feet. Their height and past experience in throwing the ball into the loop proved too much for the opposing camps. The Trojans fought their way to a well deserved victory and the reward of the silver cup. Most of the scoring for these giants was done by Logsdon and Williams, for- wards, helped by the excellent cooperation of Smith and Tucker, who alternated as centers, and McGraw and Studt, guards. With the cup as inspiration and the same combination, the Trojans have an excellent opportunity to retain the cup next year. - m - WOMEN ' S BASKETBALL SPARTANS The Spartan girls emerged from the dust of the 1936-37 tournament with colors flying and with another feather in the Spartan arrow. Due to the steady, efficient coaching of their manager, Herbie Daniels, these girls were able to defeat both the Indians and Trojans in the finals. Those who helped win the Spartan victory were Juanita Nicholson, Olive Greer, and Lois McCoy, who played forward positions, and Miriam Willingham, Esther Greer, and Martha Cracker, who defended the net as guards. INDIANS The basketball Indians closed a successful season and finished their warpath in second place as they did last year. Most of the games were very close, the Indians taking only a few extra scalps. Under the war whoops of the coach, Frank Browning, and captain, Bernie Langdon, the Indians won four of the six conference games. Carmichael, Langdon, and Craig took care of the scoring at the for- ward positions, Gunnoe, Barnett, and Crain defended the wigwams as guards. Ten Eyck, Browning, and Caskey comprised the reserve strength. TROJANS Now girls, remember Helen of Troy, sang out Floris (Flossie) Baker, petite but outstanding Trojan guard, at a deciding game with the Spartans. Each player re- membered the tragedy and did her best to win. Those who fought for the Trojans were: Eleanor (Pat) Moore, Floris Baker, Evelyn Serrott, and Arlene Elkins as forwards- Martha Fix, captain, Ayleen McDevitt, Corinne Riddell and Lillian Henderson as guards; and Josephine Wise, Lucille Greer, and Ellen Dunkum as substitutes. Al- though these girls fought hard throughout the season, they took third place in the tournament, bowing before the onslaught of the Spartans and Indians. β€” 88 β€” MEN ' S BASEBALL SPARTANS Joe Collins pitcher Richard Gongwer catcher Harold Johnston first base Morris Chalfant second base Ralph Kendall third base Herbert Daniels short stop Kenneth McCoy left field Herbert Johnson right field Wendell Wellman center field INDIANS Irwin Younger pitcher Rudy Ketterman catcher Harold Fitzgerrel , first base Fred Chalfant second base Hallie Foster third base Rollo Meier short stop Robert Hertenstein left field Stanley Whitcanack right field Vernon Sullivan center field TROJANS Orville Logsdon pitcher Robert Studt catcher Carl McGraw first base George Snyder second base Carrol Geeding third base Bernard Amore short stop Denver Smith left field Fred ' Vaught right field Kenneth Williams center field 90 - WOMEN ' S SOFTBALL SPARTANS Olive Greer pitcher Martha Cracker catcher Elizabeth DeBooy first base Miriam Gregg second base Lena Mae Walker third base Miriam Willingham short stop Pauline Wisdom left field Delsie Philebaum right fie ' d Esther Greer center field INDIANS Virginia Carmichael pitcher Cletis Caskey catcher Esther Crain first base Bernadine Langdon second base Jean Browning third base Dorothy Ten Eyck short stop Alberta Craig left field Marjorie Granger .right field Oneta Barnett center field TROJANS Pat Moore .

Although a minor sport, tennis has become guite popular at Olivet. The annual tennis tournament is an event which is anticipated with keen delight by all followers of this sport. It closes the year ' s athletic games, and often is the deciding factor in determining the society championship in athletics for the year. This year Morris Chalfant and Francis Bonar will defend the Spartan men ' s championship. Pauline Wisdom and Olive Greer will swat the ball for the Spartan girls. The Indians will present Fred Chalfant and Bob Hertenstein who will compete for the men, and Oneta Barnett, Marjorie Granger, Jean Browning, and Virginia Car- michael who will show what the girls can do. The Trojans have two new-comers this year, Orville Logsdon and Jim Roberts, whose skill has yet to be tested. Pat Moore, veteran Trojan girl, will probably give the Spartan and Indian girls some keen competition. With these players on the court, the tournament should be an excellent exhibition of real tennis. - H β€” 96 β€” 97 β€” β€” 98 β€” OUR COOK How welcome the sound of the dinner bell ' s deep tone, calling us from work and play to satisfying potions from Johnny ' s mysterious realm of bubbling pots and white magic. β€” 99 THE OLD RED BARN Ay, tear the tattered red barn down Long has it stood the storm, And many a student, looking, saw That landmark from the dorm. Beneath its roof the horses ate And laid them down to sleep, The bovines of the college farm Shall here no longer meet. The roof once shone with shingles new Where birds would light and sing, When winds were blowing o ' er the field And hay was stored with ' n. No more shall Millikan do chores Within its tottering walls, The workmen of our school shall wreck The eyesore of us all. Oh better that the shattered bulk Should rise in angry flame, The ashes spread o ' er hillock side Than it should still remain An ugly spot upon the view Which greets a south-bound pair Before they even get a glimpse Of our college campus fair. β€” Esther E.
