Baxter Quietly, without martyrdom, Professor Baxter endured almost constant illness, lovĀ¬ ing his work too much to abandon it; only the threatening hand of death dangerously sweeping ever closer was able to induce him to leave it. His students were inspired with his enthusiasm. His gentle satire and symĀ¬ pathetic impartiality, combined with his eager intelligence, made his classes among the most popular in the college. Page 7 DEDICATION G IVING unstintedly of their time. President and Mrs. F. W. Hawley this year rounded out twenty-one years of service to Park College. Facing a task that would have daunted many men of lesser character, Dr. Hawley has overcome many obstacles in bringing the college to a place of respect among smaller instituĀ¬ tions. Combining a fine Christian spirit, deep courage and a shrewd business ability, he established himself as a leader in educational circles and as a benefactor to the young people of this day. Mrs. Hawley, with vision and understandi ng, has endeared herself to the thousands of students and friends of the college with whom she has come in contact. Mere words cannot adeĀ¬ quately portray the character and worth of Dr. and Mrs. Hawley, but this institution as it now stands and the thousands of young men and young women who have been permitted a college educaĀ¬ tion through their efforts will stand as an everlasting memorial to them that even Time cannot erase. TWENTY-ONE YEARS OF SERVICE Nurturing Park 1 hrough Its Adolescent Years, President Hawley Has Proved a Good Father F OR twenty-one years President Hawley has served Park College. During that time Park has evolved from a small, poorly-equipped school to one of the first-ranking colleges of its size in the United States. Aided by his capable wife. President Hawley has given his life to the growth of the school, not only in active service but in earnest prayer as well. About ten years ago, the Academy was dispensed with in order to strengthen the college; enrollment since that time has doubled. Numerous changes were enacted which have raised the standard of the educational advanĀ¬ tages, among which were the foil owing: 1. Discontinuance of other degrees than A.B. This allows the college to concentrate its efforts in one selected field, thus insuring high quality in the result. 2. Honors courses and ComprehenĀ¬ sive Examinations were instituted as a spur to the superior student and as a Page 9 I check to the work o f the ordinary or usual student. 3. Inauguration of Freshman Week program which enables the newcomer to get adjusted to the rigors of college life and to enable tbe administration to place them in divisions of greatest interest. 4. The establishment of a Fine Arts Department. 5. Introduction of work in General Literature, Library Science, Fresbman Orientation, Physical Education, SpanĀ¬ ish and Italian. Other interesting courses sucb as Municipal Government, Shorthand and Business Marketing have been offered recently with some success. 6. The departments of Modern LanĀ¬ guages, Religious Education, Speech, Education, Social Science and BusiĀ¬ ness Administration have been formed. All of these improvements have greatly benefited the college. But further than that, material growth and renovation have taken place on the campus. Millions of dollars in gifts have llowed into the treasury and out again in the form of improvements of one sort or another. Every building on the campus has been r e modelled, added to, or rebuilt. Copley- Th aw, the addi- tion to the Library, the Science Hall, The White House new gymnasium, the Meetinā House, the White House were all constructed during President Hawley s adminĀ¬ istration. Aside from these merely external eviĀ¬ dences of the quality of President Hawley s work for Park, there is an unmistakable trace of his firm charĀ¬ acter and genial personality in all his numerous undertakings. Purity of heart and righteousness of moral nature have been his ideals for every Park student; to the best of his ability he has seen that those ideals were realized. The feminine touch on the campus has been Mrs. Hawley s. Landscaping, of which much has been done in the last year, was encouraged by her deterĀ¬ mination for a beautiful college. Through the Park College Record she has given expression to her literary longings ā and much to the benefit of the Record. How many thousands of dollars, too, her pen has earned for the college, it would be hard to estimate, but the amount must be large. We shall miss their quiet presence among us, though President Hawley intends still to continue his quest for finanĀ¬ cial aid. No more imitations of his deep, strong voice, no more Colonial parties that have him as George WashĀ¬ ington, no more heart - to - heart chapel talks from 1 ; t. llH Page 10 him when we have been naughty, no more thrilling days together, as when he read the announcement of the Herr and Thompson bulgings in our endowĀ¬ ment fund. We don t mind waxing sentimental in reflection on the sorrow of President and Mrs. Hawley s departĀ¬ ure from us. We may reason that life is a se ries of changes, but we will always wish that changes were unnecesĀ¬ sary. So ā we s hall miss you two, more than we can say. MRS. F. W.

Page 20 There is a Beauty of Man ' s Mind There is a beauty of manās mind that much Surpasses color, contour, and the form Of face and limbs, the pitch of voice, and such Endowments more than physically charm; The gleaming of an eye, the quirks of smiles, T he character of hands, and various rates And postures of a walk all these guiles Are sh own according as the mind dictates. And if an outward beauty one would have, From wholesome spirit must his thoughts arise. And courage, love, and patience that could solve All hurts he must possess ā he must be wise. Since virtues of the mind must be his ken. True beauty, then, is learned from other men. Barbara Mandigo Page 21 TRANSITION By Dr. William Lindsay Young A CHANGE in the leadership of a . college is fraught with many posĀ¬ sibilities for either good or ill. One wants to be progressive yet true to the fine traditions of the past. To move forward wisely is neither simple nor easy, but forward we must. If we would pay proper homage to the guidĀ¬ ing spirits of the years gone by we will continue the onward march o f Park College to greater achievements. To fail in this would be to break faith with those whose very lives have been poured into the college. Park has become a nationally known and uniĀ¬ versally respected institution. There is no nobler way in which President and Mrs. Hawley could have paid high tribute to those who so well laid the foundations of the school we love tha n in bringing it to the front ranks in the educational world. And now we have come to another time of transition. Is there any finer way of demonstrating our loyalty and affection to them than to press on with the hope of ascending to greater and greater heights? Guiding an institution of higher learning in our complex world is someĀ¬ what like driving an auto safely along a congested highway. We must face forward if we would arrive at our desĀ¬ tination. Yet if we find occasion to turn a bit to the ri ght or left in order to pass those who unduly impede our progress we had better glance occasionĀ¬ ally into the mirror to see what there is behind us or we are apt to be side- swiped. To keep in line of traffic may be tedious but there are times when to do otherwise is fatal. May I invite you as students to share with me this philosophy of progress? Let us not be so enamored o f the new that we shall forget the old; nor let us be so wedded to the old that we shall fail to appreciate the new. A leader is more often made a success or a failĀ¬ ure by the character of those who follow him than we are apt to suspect. It is the quality of manhood and womanĀ¬ hood on the facu Ity and in the student body that explains the confidence with which we look forward to continued triumphs. Mrs. Young and I solemnly pledge you our utmost. The greatest accomĀ¬ plishments however, cannot come by our efforts alone. Nor can the faculty, nor students, win by themselves. Our highest possible achievements will be ours because we work unitedly for the best interests of all. Douglas Malloch has well said: We need great souls to make great schools. Or all our walls were laid in vain. Youth asks for reasons, not for rules; There s more than Latin to make plain, The road of life lies just ahead. And here is youth, just at the dawn; The road of life is here to tread āĀ We need great souls to lead youth on.ā Page 22 THE PRESIDENTĀ¬ ELECT Dr. William Lindsay Young T HE first address by Dr. Young won immediate favor from Park s students; they recognized in him one who wishes for them the best sort of college life possible. He has accepted the challenge that the many success ful endeavors of Dr. Hawley s administraĀ¬ tion present to him. Dr. Young is ready to give his best for Park College, too. One of his enviable qualities is his never-failing sense of humor; nothing disturbs him, really, for he can always understand the other fellow s point of view and smile. The student question- box that was established early in the year provided material for many popĀ¬ ular talks, and busy though he is, he has already made students feel welcome at any time for conferences. Tactful and friendly, intelligent and ā Dean Sanders says full of progressive ideas on education ā And heās just as good- looking in picnic togs as in a tux, too! Mrs. Young seems quite capable of teaming with her husband; by contrasts and similarities her personality supports and challenges him, at the same time retaining its own charming individuality. Page 23 THE DEAN Dean W. F. Sanders P ROBABLY the most unpopular position to be held in college is that of Dean. The faculty criticizes educaĀ¬ tional programs, and tke students balk at disciplinary measures. Tbe wideĀ¬ spread favor for Dean Sanders, thereĀ¬ fore, among both tbe faculty and student body is particularly notable. His sense of humor and unusual fair-mindedness combine with keen intellectual ability and genuine interest in the welfare of students to make him ideally suited for his position. Under his leadership a sysĀ¬ tem has been established whereby incoming freshmen are scientifically analyzed and advised according to their interests and abilities. For juniors and seniors of superior talent who have demonstrated an aptitude for independĀ¬ ent study, he has instituted the system of Honors Work, thus preventing the college life of such persons from becomĀ¬ ing monotonous drudgery. Dean Sand ersā classes in general literature are always of capacity size, due to the stimĀ¬ ulating lectures and lively discussions. Championed by his gracious wife he has made entertainments at his home memorable indeed. Page 24 THE DEAN OF WOMEN Dean Margaret L. Barrett ā pvEAN BARRETT enjoys the com- panionship of the women of the college, and she in turn proves to he both an intelligent and a jolly companion. She believes in contributing to the group to which one belongs; she believes in keepĀ¬ ing abreast with the world ā note how the curriculum for womenās athletics has grown under her teaching; she believes in being fair with all students. CourĀ¬ teous, well-dressed, she is in a position to advise the women on matters of etiĀ¬ quette and of clothes. Always eager to learn, she does not fear to try new sports, instituting them at Park as soon as she has mastered them herself. We wish that everyone could know how delightful a person she really is. Page 25 M. C. Findlay Roy V. Magers M. H. Wilson Ethel E. Lyon D. M. Knight H. L. Williams FACULTY With patience ancl precision our understanding profs dispense much learning U A T 1SS p . is an -LVJ- attractive girl, shell be the moon. Now I m the earth.ā At this, PROFESSOR FINDĀ¬ LAY grasps the dorsal and ventral portions of his lab coat and pulls them out from his body. ' The moon pulls these tides out and I turn inside, like thisā and he squirms around in the coat. He II be looking for a cervical vertebra on a table piled high with skeleton parts and he hums a snatch of a song to keep the class interested. A veritable scholar. Professor Findlay has probed deeply in all the nooks and crannies of biology. PROFESSOR MAGERS, head of the History Department, leads his students to realize that the great lesson to be gained from history is: A man canāt lift himĀ¬ self by his own boot straps. By this statement he means that great men have achieved their importance by means of a power higher than themselves. Through his teaching and influence, history students realize that good institutions do not make good men necessarily. The influence of good institutions is not to be minimized, but in the last analysis good men are the determining factor. Page 26 PROFESSOR WILSON lias devel- oped two courses that are especially popular with the freshmen IntroducĀ¬ tory Psychology and Occupational Orientation, both classes being of capacity size. Himself a sincere, nature- loving person, his treatment of others is mild and gentle. He takes a natural pride in his original verse. References or a full discussion on any subject in any subject in philosophy are easily gained from PROFESSOR COOK. Constant reading in his comĀ¬ prehensive library keeps him informed on the latest developments in modern thought, as well as on inexhaustible possib ilities of old Greek and later European philosophies. Besid es, his dry wit has enlivened many a dull occasion; rare indeed is the student who cuts chapel when Professor Cook is adverĀ¬ tised as speaker. As a teacher, PROFESSOR ETHEL E. LYON is especially noted among students for her lectures which are superbly organized, containing all possible important material compactly stated, with proper emphasis on notable topics, and enlightened with humor; besides that, it is not smart to bluff in recitations or tests. Her home is always hospitably prepared for student callers; English Club particularly remembers the original manuscripts over the teaĀ¬ cups. A good walker and swimmer she is, too. One of PROFESSOR TEENERāS most admirable traits is his open-mindĀ¬ edness. Though students are never comĀ¬ pelled to believe as he believes, he nevertheless has opinions to state. StuĀ¬ dents of all creeds study religion together in his classes without embarĀ¬ rassment for themselves or prejudice against others. Fear not to seek the Truth is an undercurrent theme in all his teaching. Financial problems are tactfully solved in the office of MR. KNIGHT, Secretary of the Board of Trustees and business manager. Though shrewd in money matters, he is unusually symĀ¬ pathetic towards students who are rā in some embarrassment. Frequently called upon as an adviser. Professor Knight willingly imparts his knowle dge of high financeā to any who may desire it. PROFESSOR WILLIAMS amazes sociology students with his detailed knowledge of his subject. He has spent his spare time studying at the University of Chicago. Like other members of the faculty who are engrossed in their fields of study. Professor Williamsā hobby is sociology. He enjoys watching people, studying them, and uses the ecological approach in his investigations in sociology. That an overwhelming number of Park graduates has received teacher s certificates with their A.B. degrees was made possible by the able, intelligent teaching of PROFESSOR MARY R. HARRISON. Clear-think ing and frank speech are requirements for participaĀ¬ tion in her classroom discussions. Always interested in people, she parĀ¬ ticularly enjoys her work as adviser to the Y.W.C.A. Miss Harrison is one Page 27 ol the charming hostesses at Park House. Wh en he retired several years ago from active work in the speech departĀ¬ ment, PROFESSOR BEERS took over the supervision of the Print Shop. Familiarly called ' Papa Beers by those students in close connection with him, he has ingratiated himself on their affections by means of his timely advice and kindly attitude. Physics under the instruction o f PROĀ¬ FESSOR ROGERS is more than a mere factual study of the composition of the atom or of the number of ergs required to lift a wei ght to a certain height by means of pulleys. Even in the most advanced courses intricate theories are enlivened by the original, discerning thinking of Professor Rogers. i he chemistry of foods as well as the usual subjects on home economics is listed on PROFESSOR LORIMERāS teaching schedule. That home-making is a scientific job, requiring earnest study is all too soon discovered by those who select it for a major. But the study is not confined merely to those who are interested in home-making. Interior decoĀ¬ rators and dieticians are produced through Miss Lorimerās instruction as well. For making gentle, humorous, enterĀ¬ taining, thought-provoking chapel talks, PROFESSOR PARKER bel ongs in the first rank. Science and Religion ā is a favorite subject. In chemistry classes he is just as absorbingly interesting. Intelligent and human in the best sense o f the word. Professor Parker makes an admirable head of the department of Chemistry. How do you make that peanut brittle, everyone asks? French Club and FreshĀ¬ man interest groups hunger and thirst after PROFESSOR WILSONāS peaĀ¬ nut brittle. Of a cheerful nature, she is nevertheless a systematic worker who expects students to earn every point of their grades in her classes. Freshmen adapt themselves to college life rapidly when they follow her simple rules for studying and for amusing themselves. Not paradoxical in nature just broadminded. PROFESSOR GRIFĀ¬ FITH inspires students to a truly aesĀ¬ thetic appreciation of music and art, but few collegiates enjoy popular music as much as he does. His tremendous store of information on music, art, world affairs and languages is constantly augĀ¬ mented with the fruits of his untiring activity. Always alert for advantages to be obtained for Park College students, Professor Griffith has promoted interest in fine arts, both in concerts in the city and on the campus, and in art exhibits of every kind. The choir and glee clubs under his direction already have received national recognition. His deliĀ¬ cate perception and appreciation of the beautiful are supplemented with his sympathetically youthful participation in student affairs. For a long while instructor in Park College, PROFESSOR RADER has contributed much to its musical develĀ¬ opment. Violin lessons and orchestral training constitute his curriculum, but twice yearly he demonstrates his unusual Page 28 talent to the student body ,āā once during Freshman Week and later, on the Park AIumni-Day program. Students enjoy speculation on how much eyebrow-pressure it takes to bow one sweet note. French, German, Spanish, Italian, Greek, Latin and HunĀ¬ garian are the languages in PROĀ¬ FESSOR BILA S repertoire. From his wide acquaintance, he frequently brings to the campus notables from all over the world. From priests to prisons range his aside lectures in classrooms, and how the student may be saved from moral degradation is the theme of many another serious talk. Patient, helpful to slower learning students, he has endeared himself to many but oh, how he drives his car .... I An ideal business man, PROĀ¬ FESSOR KEELER has been an invaluable addition to the faculty. Two years ago Park students who wished to receive business training either transferred to another school or else substituted courses that could not possibly satisfy them; now, due to Professor Keeler s able management of the new department of Business AdminisĀ¬ tration, those who wish may major in business. Capacity classes prove that his popularity is due both to his knowledge and to his personĀ¬ ality. PROFESSOR CRULL, head of the Mathematics Department, R. A. Rog ers H. G. Parker Charles Griffith Mary R. H arrison Margaret Lorimer Miriam E. Wilson Page 29 L. R. Setty B. C. Robbins B. H. Handorf Vernon D. Keeler Alice M. Waldron P. M. Striclder is remembered by many as one of those enhancing lecturers at the Planetarium at Chicago s World Fair a few years ago. Tall, dark, and handsome is Professor CruII and yet despite that, so full of knowle dge! After spending a year at a California observatory, he returned to Park. Seniors who attended the Colonial Party can testify to his ability as an actor ā and the entire school can assent to his cleverness, sincerity, and originality as a chapel speaker. Pleasant, easy-going, and yet withal one who teaches in his classes is PROFESSOR L. A. ROBĀ¬ BINS. As an occasional respite from wandering through mazes of algebra figures, he tells of some of his experiences working on a railroad in Mexico or nurse-maidĀ¬ ing a Diesel engine in Minnesota. H is favorite hobby seems to be teasing, in class and out. Powerful in appearance and in walk, and as powerful in voice, he would be frightening indeed were it not for an unmistakable twinkle in his eyes. As athletic director, he has sacrificed much of his leisure ā to the benefit of athletics. A veritable authority in library science, PROFESSOR WALDĀ¬ RON has devoted her energies to keeping posted on the latest findĀ¬ ings in her field. Occasionally, as her time permits, she visits classes of such varied nature as French, General Literature an d Engl ish Page 30 Literature. A lover of music, she frequents concerts in the city. If you should suddenly come upon an immaculately dressed figure bending intently towards a bush ā do not be frightened or alarmed. Look about you and you will soon discover a large group of young people doing the same thing; some of them wave nets as if they were trying to catch the clouds, while others appear to be in the midst of a MosI em prayer. A field trip it is, under the competent direction of sun- helmeted PROFESSOR SETTY. BotĀ¬ any, zoology, and ornithology require such back-to-natureā investigation, and the students enjoy all three courses immensely. Much credit should be given to Professor Setty for his laboratory work as well as for the field trips. Doing double time in both the physics and mathematics departments, PROFESSOR STRICKLER emphaĀ¬ sizes the points of his lectures with calĀ¬ culating sureness. Although this has been only his second year at Park ColĀ¬ lege, he has already established himself as one professor āwho really knows what he is talking about.ā Friendly, yet a bit shy, he is always at athletic events on occasion proving himself to be as good a player as rooter. PROFESSOR BUREN C. ROBĀ¬ BINS has undertaken the responsibility of seeing that Park presents some worthĀ¬ while entertainment from the footlights. Plays are my hobby,ā he says, and judging from the results he produces, he truly enjoys acting and directing. Having worked his way through college. only rarely returning from extra-curricuĀ¬ lar play activities before the milkman made his rounds, he knows how to expect earnest, hard work from students working with him. Perhaps the greatest event of the school year was the birth of a baby to the Handorfs. A discussion group held at their house in February admittedly was more concerned with seeing the new member of the Park College FamĀ¬ ily than it was with discussing the āEvolution of the Home. DR. HAN- DORF is as good a Chemistry teacher as he is a father ā or should we say we hope he will be as good a father as a chemistry teacher? A thorough scholar is MRS. CAMPĀ¬ BELL, and an authority on sources. Though a devotee of Pope and his school, she is well acquainted with American literature, Chaucer and the Renaissance. She has said, āI always read the material in my courses over and over again, because I invariably discover new interpretations of old facts and new questions to wonder about. Champion orator ā disciple of the lonely - MR. CARL DALLINGER has long been a favorite with the stuĀ¬ dents. As debate and oratory coach, he spurs teams and individuals on to vicĀ¬ tory. Though critical in his judgment, always his remarks are allayed by his certain knowledge and kindly objectives. Called at the middle of the first semester to resume Professor Baxterās classes, MR. DOWNUM has demonĀ¬ strated his superior capabilities by conĀ¬ tinuing the same technique throughout Page 31 till the history classes, oungā fresh from K. U. -ā- he knows student s ' waysā too well to be fooled. Mr. Downumās hobbies are music and sports. That Park is cosmopolitan is further illustrated by MR. HERMANN, instructor in German, a native Austrian who has lived long years in China. Observing what, whom, and how appears to be his favorite indulgence ā nothing seems to escape his eye; similarly, few things escape his subtle wit. Under his supervision, Park College green houses have attained wide recognition. MRS. WADEāS second year at Park has proved to be successful indeed. Quiet, she immediately impresses one with her sweet and charming ways. Modernity of her tenets on education is one of the attractive features of her teaching, and illustrative digressions, with her experiences in public schools for subject, enliven the heavy topics of discussion. DR. WALTER has taught two years at Park now, and with increasing sucĀ¬ cess. A minister in Kansas City, he faithfully arrives for classes at Park every day. One of the secrets about his city life is that he is a prominent memĀ¬ ber of the poetry division of the Q uill Club there. Blue sparkling eyes, a kindly face, and a vigorous, though easy, swagger early arrested the attention of Park students one day in October. It was the new minister, DEAN ADAMS, somebody to give an air of certainty and calm assurance to the church services, somebody with recognized authority to talk to, somebody to counsel wi th in times of trouble and necessity. Humor, knowledge and understanding are all attributes of his fine nature, but ' exubĀ¬ erant best describes him. MR. PERRY, honor student in EngĀ¬ lish at Park College, inspires freshmen with a genuine interest in the English and Spanish languages. Quiet, digniĀ¬ fied, he has withal an inner fire that makes each deed a living one. Seniors have not forgotten his acting in the senior play of 1934. Assistant to Miss Waldron, MISS FISHBURN directs the I ibrary at night when all the couples are making eyes at each other and forgetting to study. Dark-haired, slender and always well- dress ed, she is a bright relief to any dull moment spent in poring over relucĀ¬ tantly learned lessons. We like her willingness to help find recalcitrantly- hidden books. Acting Registrar and Secretary to the Deanāformidable as those titles sound, MISS MORRISON who bears them breathes college air with college fervor. A recent Park College graduate, she is alive to the problems of students and sympathizes. Dignified, serious and business-like in the o ffice, she is just as capable of being the laughing subĀ¬ ject of pillow-tossings or an uncloistered sister in a Nunnery.ā Table Thirteen in the Commons has a natural home atmosphere that makes it a popular request table among stuĀ¬ dents. MRS. GRIFFITHāS kindly, sociable manner has made it so. But she is not constrained merely to helping her Page 32 ā husband in the social realm: an instructor in voice and director of the annual opera, she expends her seemingly limitless energy in a concrete expression of her love of music. I MR. 1 ODD, a last year s gradĀ¬ uate, has become one of the most popular of the younger teachers. Realistic views on life, and speĀ¬ cialization in modern art place him in the world of today. Blunt humor and extreme originality are among his more outstanding traits of personality we love his havĀ¬ ing to stand on a chair to direct group singing in the Commons! MISS VULLIAMY has that English grace that many AmerĀ¬ icans covet. But although she was born in England, she lived much of her life in New Orl eans. It is difficult to distinguish what part of her charm and her accent ā is attributable to England or to the south. Mr. Knight s secretary, she is, and very capable indeed. More than the president s secĀ¬ retary ā including remembering and planning for him and doing important jobs in his absence, MISS MORROW is important to the school at large. She obtains ticket reservations for the Fritschy concerts and with frequent bulleĀ¬ tins reminds students that the time is approaching for them to save their money for some really pleasĀ¬ urable entertainment. Jolly fun she is, too ā the feature of a woman she particularly notices is beautiful hair. . . . Elizabeth M. Campbell Frances Fisbburn Oleva Morrison Carl Dallinger T. P. Perry Blanche N.

Page 35 STUDENT GOVERNMENT By Maribel Brands Serving the student body has been aim of Council this year. Robert L. Clark President of Student Body P EACE and 31iss were the passwords of the Council at the outset of the school year. Vic Daniel Boone Brown and his pioneers had waded through the marshes of opposition against Student Government the preceding year, and this year it was unnecessary to mediate cautiously between a suspicious adminĀ¬ istration and a mistrusting student body. These two recalcitrants had fallen in line with the new Student Government, and no arrows of opposition whizzed at Bob Clark throughout the year. Activity first shaped itself into the aboĀ¬ lition of the dread Humiliation Night, and the inauguration of a Freshman Induction program in its stead. The Council snooped into the methods used in nearby colleges, but said nosiness yielding little, an original system was created in conjunction with a committee ol unabashed freshmen. Freshman talent suppl ied an evening of hilarity and opened the eyes of the blase upperclassĀ¬ men. From the dust was unearthed the antiquated Student Body Constitution which soon became revivi fied under the labors of a committee headed by VinĀ¬ cent Jones. All the duties and responsiĀ¬ bilities became legal with its adoption. Peace and bliss couldnāt last forever. Friction reared her head first at the proĀ¬ posed acceptance of the Charter system. Student Assembly meetings were hot beds of opposition, but fears of tyranny were allayed and clubs were soon forthĀ¬ coming with purposes and programs which would keep them in good standing with friends and enemies. Opposition was forthcoming with the sponsorship o f the annual student body elections, presided over by the watchful eye of the Council, under the guiding hand of the Student Body President himself. Excitement, thrills, pre-election dope, all the frills of a real election kept the students occupied for days. Two parties, two platforms, two sets of candidates, two conventions and one set of offices to be filled. The Council decided the students should Page 36 learn to carry on elections as their fathers did. Hence the fanfare. Working with the Administration the Council proved the possibilities of stuĀ¬ dents cooperating with the college heads to the mutual benefit of both groups. The charter discussion proved the significance of the Student Assembly, and intensified campus interest in club activities. The Student Assembly conĀ¬ sists of one member from each chartered organization, class, dormitory, and offiĀ¬ cers of the Student Body, and is funcĀ¬ tional in formulating the general student policy. The lack of reticence in defendĀ¬ ing and opposing forces works valuably in ironing out the ragged bumps in propositions, and there are unrealized possibilities of the Assembly as a part of Student Oovernment. THE STUDENT COUNCIL Cain, McAuley, Jones Brands, Clark, Griffith Page 37 THE STYLUS By Edgar Pearson T O PRINT a Stylus that was a real newspaper was the aim o f the staff of the paper for this past year. An effort was made to keep posted on all advance news. Current events in the news o f the world, columnists, ediĀ¬ torials, all contributed toward filling the stated purpose of the sheet. Beginning the first seme ster under the leadership of Edgar Pearson, a senior, the Stylus immediately began its year s campaign for a place on the campus. The criticism had been made earlier that the paper was becoming provincial, that it had no outside conĀ¬ nections. To dispel this a News Viewsā column, a condensed current world picture of the news, was written by the editor. In the absence o f this column at various times a column of āāCollege Quips,ā choice jokes gleaned from the files of more than eighty exchanges, was edited. By far the most interesting aspect of this national coverĀ¬ age was the addition of Park s first forĀ¬ eign correspondent, Louise Hall , who sent letters descriptive of her experiences in Belgium. Added to these features were book reviews, written by Kenneth Ballard and Elizabeth Ann Treeman, āMusic Notes,ā by Martha Sinclair and Art A La Carte,ā written by Edwin Todd, of the Art Department. StuĀ¬ dent personalities were stressed in āIntroducing,ā a feature that preĀ¬ sented a student each week to the T p p J. tdgar rearson student body. Editor-in-chief Columnists galore applied for the job of filling the suppressed desires of the college. The first group to fill the colĀ¬ umn were The Campusears, comĀ¬ posed of that inseparable trio of WiniĀ¬ fred Harris, Lois Proctor and Marian Wightman. Then followed the meteoric rise and fall of Ossie, the Owl, in the person of the two Georgies Schrader and Milstead. āPetey, the Beep, whose identity remains secret, was introduced. Sports were handled quite capably by Kenneth Hickman, a freshman. His humorous features and candid comĀ¬ ments in Sport Shots were consisĀ¬ tently enjoyed by all. Edgar Pearson aided him in the coverage of athletics when the job became too heavy for one man. Conservative progressivism was the keynote of the Stylus as re-echoed in the pointed and timely editorials of the Editor on subjects vital to the readers. Questions were often asked that required direct answers to problems current to the readers. Early in 1937 a Literary Edition was presented to the student body by the Stylus in cooperation with the Engl ish Cl ub. Poetry, short stories and essays were featured in the issue, the conĀ¬ tents being judged by members of the English Club and Professor Lyon. To the business manager, Richard Osborne, should go a set of bouĀ¬ quets for having kept the paper out O- L jn L O f the red this Kichard CJsborne Business Manager year. His efforts Page 38 THE STYLUS STAFF made it possible for many pictures to be used and new type to be bought for tbe print shop, all of wbicb added materially to tbe appearance of tbe Stylus. Upon tbe resignation, during tbe second semesĀ¬ ter, of Edgar Pearson, Robert Brown was selected to succeed to tbe editorĀ¬ ship. Robert Brown bad served tbe major portion of tbe first semester as assistant editor. U pon bis resignation prior to tbe end of tbe semester, MilĀ¬ dred Mortbland, a senior, was appointed to bis position. Kenneth Hickman Sports Editor Miriam Smith. Kenneth Ballard 1 n t r .

Art McAuley and his brain trusters went to work last fall and produced what Art quaintly called his ādumkopf,ā which is a free translation of dummy. Since that time many dumkopfs have been outlined and re-outlined until now you hold in your hands the final and irrevocable dumkopf, ā plush bound and gilt-edged like a family album. Arthur McAuley Editor Barbara Mandi go Associate Editor Donald W. Sampson Stiff Donald Cain Business Manager Assistant Bus. Mgr. The yearās work has, we hope, brought you a book which will serve for many years to remind you of your college days and associations you made here. To Professor Lyon and Professor Magers and the Board of Publications goes our appreciation for the fine coopĀ¬ eration they have shown; we also wish to thank Dean Sanders for his willingĀ¬ ness to aid us at all times. Barbara Mandigo, assistant editor during the first semester, helped to make the Narva a success with her write-ups. During the second semester Marjorie Wilbur took over the duties of the assistant editor, after helpĀ¬ ing with the stenographic work earlier in the year. Marje worked very hard, and her assistance and advice made her an invaluable member o f the staff. DonĀ¬ ald Cain, as assistant to the Business Manager, helped in getting advertising and in every way possible; during the second semester his duties were assumed by Frankie (Frank s - the -Name) McDowell. Frank served as distributor of the Directory and Yearbook but, because of his well-known prominence, Frankās activities in the Narva o ffice itself were necessarily limited. To Edwin Todd, art editor, and Ethel Hall- sey the Narva is greatly indebted. Ed not only designed the cover, but drew the map on the end sheets and took charge of the snapshot section. Ethel Page 40 designed the division pages of the book. That cbap with the birdie was J. Ed Bilby himself, and if any of you look- pretty bad in the snapshot section the chances are that Ed did it on purpose. Ed and his camera appeared at every major social function on the campus but often disappeared in a flash. On the business side of the Narva I discovered several truths which may aid next year s business manager, namely: 1. Every business man in Kansas City is out to lunch from 10:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m (3:30 on Rotary Club days.) 2. People dislike to spend money. 3. More people dislike to spend money on yearbook advertising. However, I found most Kansas City business men sympathetic, if not finanĀ¬ cially so, and I thank our advertisers. Finally our sincere gratitude goes to those who did much of the drudgery in producing the 1937 Na rva, the stenoĀ¬ graphic and make-up work. To Mr. Richard Ong of Grimes-Joyce Printing Co. and Mr. Harold Dew of Holland Engraving Co., our appreciation for your timely advice and assistance. To the student body of Park College we offer this 1937 Narva and hope it meets with your approval.

CCT TNEASY rests the head that hears the crown proved true in the case of the senior class th is year, what with comprehensives staring us in the face and the prospect of going forth unwanted into a world that was prone to label us as the forgotten generation. But we II fool them. Running in reverse, we find that there was much to gladden, the final year of the astute seniors. Senior priviĀ¬ leges proved to be the final touch in lightening the burden o f the class. Articles 4, 5, and 10 will long he remembered as milestones for no longer would senior girls have to get permisĀ¬ sion to go to the city, and if we didn t like chapel we didnāt have to go (one day a week), and let the Profs, (if they werenāt heads) fume when we didn t show up for class, for didn t the Dean say we could cut if we wanted to (three times)? 1 hen the Colonial Party, in which the faculty went back to grandmotherās day for their costumes, was the crownĀ¬ ing social event of the year. As MesĀ¬ sers. Dallinger and Todd serenaded the last greatness of the class, we discovered that among the great and near-great included on the class roll s were Robert L. Clark, of Student Body president and Ella Mae ā fame; Ed Pearson, who edited the Stylus and was in turn edited by Mickey; Dorothy McAfee, who directed the a ffairs of the Y.W.; RobĀ¬ ert Swanson, who led the athletes to glory and who was president of the M.

S OME day, when your son is a Park- ite, he will come to you, enthusiĀ¬ astically curious, and ask, ' Dad, what was there different about this class of ā 38 ?ā And you will learnedly answer: ' My dear Junior, I wish that all the problems you bring to me were as capable of logical explanation as this one. You see, scientifically analyzed, class spirit is commonly a compound of parties and political potency. The existence of either of these elements is entirely dependent upon geographic proximity. Therefore, David Weaver Cooke Anderson President Vice-President Orion, Chemistry Parchevard, Biology Kansas City, Mo.

J. class spirit of such consistency disinĀ¬ tegrates with the benediction of a commencement address. āThe only possibility for the continĀ¬ ued life of class spirit after the process of graduation is the addition of a third abstraction which is called ' mass pride in individual accomplishment,ā the life of which is in no way dependent upon geographic unity. āConcretely speaking, consider our junior year. Officers Weaver, Hucklee- berry, and Andersons, Cooke and Alex headed our campus leaders. ContributĀ¬ ing were: Narva Editor McAuley, Assistant Stylus Editor Dimmitt, CounĀ¬ cil Secretary Brands, W.A.A.

Editors note: Mary Car- roll herself didnāt do so badly. Junior. It was in ā37 that she was a member of the state champion womenās debate team. āScientifically, logically, and factuĀ¬ ally, my son, you will conclude, with this foundation, how could the spirit of the class of ā38 ever die?

First thing you know we II be wearing long pants and going with the girls. Honest, folks, we don t like to boast, but in spite of our youth we are to Park College what the Mayflower was to the Pilgrims, what make-up is to a girl, and what Mae West is to the movies ā and we can prove it! Aren t we the best all-around athletes on the campus? Dig us up another man in these hyar hills that can win as consistently in any sport as little ' Scottyā Irwin ā and you can have him. Robert B. Clark President Watervliet, N. Y. Robert Brown V ice-President Los Angeles, Cal. Laura Leatberman Secretary Tecumseb, Nebr. Lorene Metbeny Treasurer Lees Summit, Mo. Then we got Kraft, Eddy, and a whole string of others we will save for rebuttal. Who do you think took all those lifeĀ¬ like group portraits found in this volĀ¬ ume ? Our own J. Edgar Bilby, Jr., took every one of them with his trusty camĀ¬ era. By the way we helped edit this volume. I guess you forgot that Marjorie Wilbur is the assistant Naiwa Editor. But thatās not all!! Aside from writing the Ossieā and the Faith, Hope, and Charity columns, and turning in over half the copy for the Stylus we edit the thing. Little Bobbie Brown nosed out aspiring upperclassmen to clinch the job. We can sing too. Youāll have to admit that Audey Anschuetz and Margaret Stansell sing the sweetest of any class in Missouri. And Curlyā Ramey makes us the backbone o f the dance band with his scrumptimonious slip horn playing. In womenās athletics we re just about the best there is. Redā Milstead and Tomboy Fulton fight for honors in everything from soccer to basketball; and we won first place in the womenās state debate tourney with Wanda Jones as our mouthpiece. I reckon you think we donāt have time to study, shining in all these other activiĀ¬ ties as we do but youāre wrong again. We re tops in grades too. Hugh Richards pretty nearly always takes No. 1 place on the honor roll. Now, we ask you folks, aren t we the best bloominā ā class in scho ol? Well, some say, yesā and some say noā ā but we think the ayes have it. Yours, The Superb Sophs.

S EPTEMBER 17 , and another freshĀ¬ man class. From the first it was evident that this was not just another class. This class definitely had someĀ¬ thing! Starting a season with a freshĀ¬ man program that topped all previous freshman programs, this class of ā40 continued through the year with the same dash and vigor they demonstrated from the very first. In participation in school activities this freshman class wholly disregarded the prestige o f the upperclassmen. Eller, Crowe, Wichstrom, and Mahaffy President Robert Rae Sioux City, la. Vice-President Jean Erwin Marceline, Mo. Secretary Kenneth Hickman Chicago, III. T reasurer Arabella Fry Erie, Pa. showed that gang how to sink those basketballs. Hickman, as sports comĀ¬ mentator, displayed a truly professional style. Dean Hoslett starred as Mr. Standish in The Passing of Chow Chow. Williams and Meister quite uniquely made love in true statuette form in Manikin and Minikin. Mattox not only achieved success as Anna Karenoff in 1 he Flight of the Herons, but carried successfully the contralto solos o f the Messiah. Gilchrist was the promising young speaker who defeated several men to win second place in the Old Line Oratorical Contest. The brains were supplied by such members as Arabella Fry, and Elizabeth Treeman who headed the Deanās honor roll for their class. Fink and Crowe held their own among the ParkoIIegians, while the formerās glamorous tenor thrilled even the senior damsels. But why stop at a few? Even the class officers led dual lives. Rae, the handsome beau of the campus; Erwin, the practical joker; Hickman, previously mentioned; Fry, the drama director .ā- these efficiently administered the duties of their official positions. The class happily welcomed its most distinguished class member. Dr. Young, who entered the ranks quite ceremoĀ¬ niously with the Wearin o the G 99 reen.

Coming back to the track Smith and Hugb Melrose were still running strong witb Robertson pushing Mace and Jack Mel rose. The finish came with the two leaders in order, then Robertson and Mace, who were followed by four Parchies, L. Phillips, Bromley, Irwin and R. Phill ips. Vos kuil and Kraft completed the first ten. SOCCER Soccer fans were treated to a high grade performance in this sport as a perfectly balanced Parchevard team romped through its third straight year undefeated, to the championship. The season started on a balmy day in October when the Parchies ran rampant over the green Lowell eleven to the tune of 9 - 0 . R. Phillips scored six of the Parchiesā goals. The next encounter presented a tight struggle between the Orions and Lowells, endĀ¬ ing in favor of the Orions, 1-0, by virtue of a fluke goal scored by a Lowell through his own posts. In the remaining games, the Parchies won from the Orions twice, 3 - 0 , 3 - 1 , and also conquered the Lowells once more, 2-0. The Parchevardsā success lay in the irresistible offensive of the two Phillips Page 74 boys on tbe forward line, bolstered by a strong backfield defense. John Smith and Boesman played powerfully as half backs and Kraft and Swanson were steady at tbe full positions. Taylor favored no part of bis anatomy to stop shots at bis goal. Stand-out players on tbe others teams were Vosk uil, Disbaroon, Paul Smith and Art Smith of tbe Orions, and Clark, Dobronte and Mace for tbe Lowells. BASKETBALL As the winter season approached, athletic activity centered in tbe new gymnasium, starting with a closely conĀ¬ tested, thrill-packed basketball series. A highly favored, lanky Lowell five were nosed out by a fighting, team-spirited Parchevard aggregation as the Purple SPORTS Cross country . . . Pace puts Auringer up in the air . . .

After subduing the inexperienced Orion basketeers 33 - 20 , the Lowells met the Parchies and were defeated in a sew-saw fight, 24 - 22 . Following this, the Lowells and Parchies both beat the Orions 30 - 21 , and 31-18 in slow- moving, one-sided a ffairs. In the final and deciding Parchevard- Lowell game, players on both teams were nervous and played cautiously during the first half, the score being 9-8 at mid-time, favor the Parchevards. In the second half, both offensives opened up. Five minutes short o f the gun, the Lowells led 20-14 but desperate drives by the Parchevard forwards netted enough points to make the final score 26-24 with the Parchies ahead. Page 76 All-star selections included high- point man Irwin, Osborne, Eddy and M. Smith, forwards; Pace and Sims, centers; and Kraft, Miles, Stout and Hettick, guards. The passing ability of Irwin and Smith along with a rock wall defense in Kraft and Miles amounted to the margin of victory, although the Lowells had individual scoring stars in Osborne and Eddy. Stout accounted for most of the scoring efforts of the Orions. VOLLEYBALL LoIIowing the hectic basketball series, the gym was equipped with the familiar high, wide-mesh nets in prepĀ¬ aration for volleyball. Tall, lanky spikers and steady set-up men pracĀ¬ ticed getting the ball over the net out of reach of opponents. The club series resulted in an unbroken string of victories ending with the ch ampionship for a veteran Parche- vard team. Captain Swanson and the two Phillips boys served excellent setĀ¬ ups for smooth-working Renfro, Irwin and Kraft to spike across the net. In the first game the Parchies won from the Orions 21 - 4 , 21-17 which was followed by an Orion victory over the Lowells 21 - 18 , 21 - 18 . The Parchies, without Swanson in the last game, eked out a 21 - 16 , 16 - 21 , 21-10 score. With a fine display of fight and team-work, the Purple and Gold clinched the championship by setting down the Orions 21 - 12 , 21 - 10 , and then ended the season by downing the Lowells 21 - 6 , 16 - 21 , 21 - 6 . Hettick displayed smooth form in spiking for the Lowells while Paul Smith and Stout stood out on the Orion aggregation. All-stars included SwanĀ¬ son, the two Phill ips, Ralph and Len- ard, Irwin, Renfro, Paul Smith, Stout, Hettick and Moody. WOMEN S ATHLETICS It was said last year that the girls reveled amidst a ānew deal in sports. The reason for this outburst of enthusĀ¬ iasm was a full and varied program of games in which a great many girls found their favorite activity. This year, under the leadership of Marian Wight- man, the W.A.A. has successfully dupliĀ¬ cated the last yearās accomplishments. Under the same efficient system of appointing a manager for each sport, the club tournaments for girls were conĀ¬ tested, and the competition was unusually keen and evenly divided. In a rough and hard-fought hockey tournament, the Lucernes eked out vicĀ¬ tory, being pushed to the limit by the Callios and Auroras. The more t alented of the stick wielders included: ClemĀ¬ ents, Moskau, Good, Whipple, Sifferd, Proctor, Humbyrd, Pulton, Milstead, Eskridge and Barnett. In soccer, the Callios copied their unbeaten brothers and assumed the crown. Most of the Callios games were decisive victories. Scrappy Callio all- star selections went to Clements, SifĀ¬ ferd, Trautman and Bennett. Other standouts were: Good, Hurn, Moskau, Pulton, Whipple, L a I c o n e r and McGill. Page 77 When the girls started tossing basketĀ¬ balls through the rims, it was apparent that Bobbie Clements was the attracĀ¬ tion. During her exhibitions this season, she compiled 109 points and led the Calliopeans to an easy victory in the tournament. Clements was supported by Milstead and Wightman on a well- balanced team. Opposition of note showed that Mahaffey and Whipple of the Lucernes and H urn of the Auroras tried hard to stem Clement s game, but with no avail.

Page 79 ORION CLUB By Kenneth Hickman Casting aside for tke moment the very becoming modesty wkick kas endeared us to tke entire campus, we Orions feel it necessary to admit quite franldy tkat ours was tke most popular cluk on tke campus tkis year. Stifle tkose guffaws, little ones, and scan tke decidedly convincing reason given kelow. Tkose pesky Parckies yelled for us against tke Lowells; tke Lowells ditto against tke Parckies; and finall y, we ckeered for ourselves. Tkerefore, witk all tkree clubs pulling for us, kow can even tke most narrow-minded of you ignore our popularity? Wkite -clad feet tapping to tke scorcking rkytkm of an enticing orckes- tra, impressed freskies sipping ginger ale from evil-appearing bottles, and watcking tke versatile program on tke stage ā no wonder tkey were convinced at tke Fall Formal tkat tke O. A. C. really did tkings in tke best manner. And even we fresk men must admit tke Shepard Voskuil President Orion Aileen Good President Aurora old Orions corralled tke elite of an unusually elite class. Yea, verily. After painstakingly faskioning danĀ¬ gerously long paddles and trotting a fter tke signatures of tke members to add to tke collection on tkeir kard-boiled eggs, tke pledges were surprised ā pleasantly to find tkat tke older memĀ¬ bers were kuman, permitting tke forĀ¬ tunate freskies to escape witk no more severe puniskment tkan kot dogs, candy bars and apples on tke dreaded nigkt of initiation. Witk Voskuil, Weaver, Art Smitk and Myers piloting tke club, its HalĀ¬ loween party can be compared favorĀ¬ ably witk any fall social event. Tke āCelestialā Weaver was pomĀ¬ meled into tke presidency for second semester, dragging kis roomie, Hinde, to serve as vice-president. Witk tke kelp of tke otker officers, A. Smitk, Hick man and Pkillips, a bi-weekly pre-skow program was presented. Music from tke Orion quartet, tke best in Park, or from bazooking Myers or tke cycling Melrose enlivened tkese gatkerings. Well , we tkink weāve earned our soda, so ā On, Orion! AURORA CLUB By Erva Huckleeberry Remember tke ni gkt tkat tke Auroras assisted tke Orions in enterĀ¬ taining tke student body before a Saturday nigkt skow? Don Myers was tke Master of Ceremonies and a supĀ¬ porting cast consisted of Jo Nelson, witk āTke Nigkt tke Bed Fell On Page 80 Fath er, Mary Rosalie Boehner as the Aurora clarinet player, Blandena Lad- wig s solo and piano -āā not to mention Amster-dam-Herky. The houseful of onlookers held up very well until the last number I Think what we would do if we put our heart in it! But let s start at the beginning. Rush week hurried along with breakfasts, luncheons and feeds and ended draĀ¬ matically with formal gowns swishing to the music of an orchestra from the city. Then came sign-up day! Even that heavy rain could not dampen our spirits as we snake-danced our way over to Dr. Findlayās. We were proud of our new members. Among the group we found charming Helen Brockās beautiful voice, peppy Cleojeane Smith, Mes- sersmith and Webb, our āgleeful glee club pair,āā and āTin Pan Treeman. Among our learned senior members there is Winnie Harris who reads conĀ¬ stantly and writes interestingly, and Carol Weaverling with the salvation of the less fortunate on her mind. It will be many a year before Aurora will capture another Whitlock-Woeste- meyer combination of fun, frolic and curls. Sally Coffin and Doris Jenkins can each show some man what real mashed potatoes should taste like; not to mention how McKercher and Knox will make the name of Morrison stand forevermore and amen. On the side-line for push and pull we have Honor-Roll Loevenguth, famĀ¬ ily timekeeper Mary Wickstrom, draĀ¬ matic Montaldo and smiling McGill. Next year Aurora will have a hard time to keep up with -āā Aurora with such munition in the offing.

It is torn and dirty, but its colors still announce to tire world, In Parche- vard, itās Fellowship.ā We shall see. First semester President Swanson and Callio President Clements started things off in a blaze of glory with a pre-rush pep feed on Observatory Hill. The fire burned thirty feet high and glad voices were heard as far as Lake Hawley. Just to let the frosh know we were here. Comrades Cain and White planned the rush week ā typical Parchie feeds, wa ffles in town, Mr. Cave s chili, and a new one this year, waterĀ¬ melons. Determined Parchevards dragged willing and unwilling freshmen to Open House to see an ancient Park campus cinema by CruII, the worthy sponsor, and to hear R. Phillips on athletics. Serenades ā- and many a femĀ¬ inine heart fluttered as Ramey played I Love You Truly. The week ended with rain and sign-up feeds. Festivities Robert Swanson Roberta Clements President President Parcbevard Calliopean under Irwin in the lower dining hall revealed much friendliness on the part of the new men, and beauty in the new as well as in the old Calliopeans. After a spanking good initiation. Treasurer Robertson took charge, squeezing blood from the proverbial turnip by collecting dues from both the frosh and upperclassmen. Musically inclined members monopolized InducĀ¬ tion Night with Graham, Trio Daniels, Beauchamp, and freshman class PresiĀ¬ dent Rae and Fink, who still graciously perform at club affairs. GAS Schrader served as master of ceremonies at a rousing fall party as Chief Chef Swin- ney served the scorched spaghetti. Here the clubās only exclusive dramatic proĀ¬ duction was billed, ' The Lighthouse Keeperās Datter,ā of which the less said the better. Gifts o f fish food and paper dolls were exchanged by Myers and Lavonne at the Christmas party.

Page 83 I LOWELL CLUB By Joe Lonsdale Lowell Club carried on with its customĀ¬ ary vitality and originality. Rush week witli its feeds, bikes and open bouses provided enjoyment for fresbmen and regular members. On sign-up day a satĀ¬ isfying percentage of frosb followed tbe standard of blue-and-blue and events were shaping up for an interesting and profitable year. Und er tbe leadership of our popular president, Bob Corbett, weekly meetings were held and enterĀ¬ tainment provided for the entire school. These before-the-show meetings were most enjoyable a fter-d inner treats and many talented Lowells and Lucernes were given a chance to strut their stuff. Bill Timmons coaxed swing music out of the piano. Deihl and Moody, or BalĀ¬ lard and Clark presented light (very light) drama. George Crosky and Jerry Kiser were popular music makers. With the start of the second semester Keith Req ua was elected president and plans were made for the formal party in April. This party proved a most delightĀ¬ ful affair and its many original and novel features earned much well-merited praise for the Lowells and Lucernes who worked on the party committee. Spring brought more feeds, fun, and fellowship. Around blazing campfires Lowells cemented for all time the friendĀ¬ ships of the winter months. And so the year ended happily and with promising prospects for next fall. LUCERNE CLUB By Ethelyn Dimmitt Dear Lucernes: Let s think back over a happy and success ful year. Do you remember the School Daysā open house with Mary Carroll Donnelly as teacher? Our songs always recall happy memories to most of us iā ' those nights we listened breathĀ¬ lessly to the Lowell serenades. And we had plenty of musicians too. Marjorie Dean Noland and āAudyā Anschuetz were ever-popular songsters. Then too, one of our Jones girls, Alice Grey, and Seiberta Conklin represented the Lucernes in the L. L. C. stringed quartette. For scholastic ability we were proud to call Beulah Field and Edna Smith our club sisters. Werenāt the Saturday night meetings fun? Jean Meister, Arabella Fry, Lucille Swanson, Mildred Daniels ā ' their draĀ¬ matics deserved attention, and we always loved readings by Ruth Marie Kessler. The artistic aspects of the club were Robert Corbett President Lowell Emily Catherine Johnson President Lucerne Page 84 i lr Jr- ftp m FT r BK ? m ' ā M [ MS - y 3 ?

And we had a number of good all- around athletes such as our representaĀ¬ tive, Gerry Moskau, and Margaret FulĀ¬ ton and Ella May Eskridge. Fortune seemed to smile on us when it came to choosing presidents. Emily Catherine Johnson was our charming first semester president, while Claribel Whipple was our peppy leader during the second semester. āA thing of beauty is a joy forever,ā and we certainly had our share with Laura Leatherman, Ruth Roach, Sei- berta Conklin, Helen Olsson, Mary Griffith, Clara Belle WhippI e and Jeanne Mussleman representing their respective classes as beauty queen candidates. Our sponsors, Dr. and Mrs. Griffith, were real comrades on the feeds and parties they attended with us. And so we still feel glad that we are members of the āDearest club beneath the sun, dear Lucerne girls. Yours, Ethelyn.

FAUSTIAN SOCIETY By Noraine Seimer The Faustian Society is concerned with the political, religious and social organizations of Germany, and seeks knowledge of its geography as well. Special attention was given to the secĀ¬ tion of the country in which the Olympic Games were held. These aims are accomplished in the bi-monthly meetings. At one German fairy stories were read. The American version of Three Fittle Pigsāā was noted to be remarkably similar to the German original, Die Dreie Schweine. The University of Wisconsin has conĀ¬ tributed materially to the club program by suggesting the showing of movies pertaining especially to sports like skiĀ¬ ing, and to the Olympic Games. Mr. Paul Dietz brought insight into German thought and philosophy in interpretations of Goethe, Schiller, and other noted writers. The celebration of a typical Deutsche W eih nachtsen, in December, was one of the outstanding activities planned by the vice-president and program chairĀ¬ man, Ann Falconer. Mrs. Hermannās German dainties and Pfeffernusse proĀ¬ vided the concluding enjoyment of the evening. Such programs are similar to those presented during the rest of the year. German conversation being anticipated as the outstanding project in which the new members will participate. Page 87 I LE CERCLE FRANCAIS By Tluth Street A few weeks after school began last fall, a group of internationally-minded students gathered together for the first meeting of Le Cercle Francais. Last year we were extremely fortunate in having as our pres ident. Mile. Elef- teria Pitis, Rumanian-horn, but speakĀ¬ ing many tongues, including French. It was almost unanimously felt that we could do no better than to re-elect Lytz as the head of our group. BarĀ¬ bara Mandigo and Harry Pollock were chosen for the positions of vice-president and secretary-treasurer respectively. This yearās programs were planned so as to he of personal interest to every one present. One time we were priviĀ¬ leged to hear Robert Ames tell some of his experiences in France, especially in Paris. Boh paid particular attention, while in Europe last summer, to the construction of cathedrals, and his descriptions were particularly noteĀ¬ worthy. At another time we discussed the political situation, so significant in France just now. By the way, Le Cercle Francais has its own representative right on the spot, namely Louise Hall, who is studying at the University of Brussels. You have seen her clever letters in the Stylus. Our most ambitious program was preĀ¬ sented at the Christmas meeting. The piece cle resistance was a skit entitled Le Pere Noel. Barbara Mandi go read one o f AI phonse Daudet s delightful stories of Christmas in France, The Th ree Low Masses. French Christmas customs were reviewed by Miss Pitis. The meeting ended amid hearty singing of some cantiques cle Noel, much nonĀ¬ chalant chatting in French of our vacaĀ¬ tion plans and delightful refreshments. Le Cercle Francais wishes to express its appreciation to Professor Miriam E. Wil son who has so graciously sponsored our group. THE ENGLISH CLUB By Francis Auringer In numbers small, but hound closely by their common, compelling interest in literature, the English Club takes a healthy pleasure in the varied programs of their meetings. Book reviews, assigned to the members who enjoy reading more than writing, differ in subject, coverĀ¬ ing such topics as the art of thinking and medieval romance in Norway. (It is the advantage of the English Club to be able to acquire knowledge and appreciation of any field of endeavor outside the strictly confining one of writing.) Page S8 LE CERCLE FRANCAIS OFFICERS Elefteria Pitis . . . President Barbara Mandigo . Vice-President Harry Pollock . Secretary-Treasurer THE ENGLISH CLUB OFFICERS Winifred Harris . . President Robert Brown . Secretary-Treasurer For those limited numbers who are shilled in writing, ample opportunity is provided for practice and improvement. One of the greatest encouragements the dub has ever sponsored for creators within and without its coterie has been the Scribbler, a magazine composed of stories, sketches, essays and poems. This year the Stylus issued a literary edition in cooperation with the club. EnterprisĀ¬ ing and promising writers that evidence themselves are rewarded by an invitaĀ¬ tion to become members of the group. Often generously entertained by Miss Lyon, the English Club usually tries to have its sessions in the comfortable atmosphere o f the Meetin House. The clever wit of the president, Winifred Harris, and the keen interest and manĀ¬ aging ability of Robert Brown, the secĀ¬ retary-treasurer, have been highlights of this year s meetings. Page 89 WAKEFIELD SCIENCE CLUB By Anna Louise Loevenguth Despite the fact that the Wakefield Science Club claims the distinction of being the largest departmental club on the campus, it has not sacrificed quality. Biologist, chemists, physicists, home economists ā all find interest in the club, and rā in each other. Mr. Llewelyn Jones, an analyzing chemist, told of so many adulterations in patented products that girls were almost afraid to brush their teeth. Ants as Social Insects,ā a most interĀ¬ esting lecture by Dr. James W. ChapĀ¬ man, o f the Sill iman Institute, was accompanied by intermittent chuckles from those who know aunts, shall we say? By virtue of his versatility and subtle humor, Mr. George Acre, a civil engiĀ¬ neer, made even the technicalities of bri dge building entertaining. Dr. H. G. Parker made us glad that our water smells as bad as it does if that is what it takes to kill those milĀ¬ lions of germs which multiply so rapidly, and whose working day has not been cut to eight hours by government intervention.

He enumerated many achievements that have been made in the medical field which have enabled the doctor to diagnose more accurately a patient s condition. Dr. Ben Myers was the next speaker. His talk on Social Hygiene gave preĀ¬ medics an insight into what modern medicine was doing in this field. Our own Dr. Findlay was as enterĀ¬ taining as are his classes as he looked over the top of his glasses with that certain twinkle in his eye, wise to the foolishness of people in believing popĀ¬ ular fallacies. What fools we mortals be. ā Dog fish dissectors! Iso-cyanide makers! Magnets! Cooks! Interesting isn t it, to hear about the rest of the scientists? INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS CLUB By Vincent Jones With the constant threat of another world conflagration far more terrible than that of 1914 present in Europe as a result of the bloody civil war in Spain, with Italy s recent ruthless conquest of helpl ess Ethiopia, with the League of Nations rapidly limiting itself to a snail- in-its-shell policy of neutrality, the Park International Relations club faced no difficulty in finding topics for discussion at its Saturday evening meetings in 1936 - 37 . During the year Hitlers and King Edwards, parliaments and cabiĀ¬ nets, foreign policies and nationalistic philosophies and wars and peace plans have been described in detail to the forty-odd members of the club. I.R.C. meetings are open to all Park- ites, though they be cynics, radicals, conservatives, communists or just ordinĀ¬ ary college students. The only requisite for membership is a sincere interest in world affairs and willingness to conĀ¬ tribute constructive ideas and facts at the fortnightly meetings held in the library. do build up the background knowlĀ¬ edge essential to a clear understanding of the international relations and at the same time to keep in constant touch with events occurring in all parts of the world from day to day ā these have been the two principle aims of the proĀ¬ grams presented by the club. During the first semester an effort was made to discuss the conditions of life in each of the important countries of the world. A high point of the first term was the joint meeting with Zeta Kappa Epsilon, feaĀ¬ turing a book review by Dr. Charles R. Adams. Similar joint meetings with the Spanish Club and possibly with the Kansas City University International Relations Club are planned for the latter part of the second semester. The Carnegie Foundation made its annual contribution of periodical material and books to the club, and these have been presented for safe keeping to the library. Professor Roy V. Magers, head of the history department, is the sponsor of the I.R.C. Page 91 I HONORARY SIGMA PI SIGMA NU CHAPTER By Beulah Field D id you see the scientific movies sponsored by Nu Chapter?

Page 92 1925, it now has chapters in many states and even one in the Philippines. Park College was one of the first colleges in which a chapter of Sigma Pi Sigma was formed. Nu Chapter was installed May 19 , 1930 , by Dr. Marsh W. White, the national secretary, who is an alumnus of Park. The purposes of the society are āto serve as a means of awarding distincĀ¬ tion to those of high scholarship in physics, to stimulate and to encourage a spirit of cooperation and friendship among those who have displayed marked ability in this study.ā Several meetings are held each year in which members read original papers on scienĀ¬ tific subjects. The membership for this year, 1936 - 193 , is as follows: James Robertson, president; David Clark, vice-president; Beulah Field, secretary-treasurer. Dr. R. A. Rogers, sponsor; Eades Carroll, Joe Settle, Paul Smith, Professor Paul M. Strickler. ZETA KAPPA EPSILON By Catherine McKercher OR the nine new members of Zeta Kappa Epsilon, the first meetĀ¬ ing of the year at the home of ProĀ¬ fessor Magers was a combination of the third degree and oral comprehensives. President Mary Griffith and Vice- President Vincent Jones enjoyed themĀ¬ selves at the expense of the nervous, perspiring, blindfolded pledges lined up to receive the rapid-fire of not lead ā but questions on historical details and contemporary politics. Even Swanson was at a loss for answers. After the victims of this grilling initiaĀ¬ tion became too weak-kneed to take it standing up, they were allowed to sit down, and were refreshed with ice water; but the torture went on. The round of Bill Good s self-satisfied chuckle and anxiety about what ProĀ¬ fessor Magers thought of this display of ignorance increased the embarrassment and discomfort. Zeta Kappa Epsilon is an honorary society of history majors, sponsored by Roy V. Magers, head of the DepartĀ¬ ment of History. Juniors and seniors of high scholastic standing and genuinely interested in history are eligible for membership. Each one who is elected must present to the club a paper in some field of historical research before he is admitted. In November Zeta Kappa Epsilon cooperated with the International RelaĀ¬ tions Club in sponsoring a book review by Dr. Chari es Adams, who presented Mark SuII ivanās Our Times. Glimpses of Paradiseā was the subĀ¬ ject of the December open meeting of Zeta Kappa Epsilon, but donāt be too hasty in condemning history stuĀ¬ dents for infringing on the sacred terriĀ¬ tory of the Bible Department. Professor Roy V. Magers convinced the audience that Hawaii is a bit of heaven on earth by recounting experiences from his sumĀ¬ mer vacation there and by showing motion pictures of the islands. At another important meeting of the club Mr. Garl and Downum read a research paper concerning the ConfedĀ¬ erate diplomacy during the Civil War.

Toward the end o f the year a few sophomore majors who have done outstanding work are voted into the club. The purpose of the club is to provide social training, to give experience in carrying responsibility, to develop perĀ¬ sonality, leadership, initiative, social poise, and professional interest. Page 94 The year s activities opened with a style show and program for the new members. Then came the formal initiaĀ¬ tion of the juniors followed by a chop suey supper. In the spring the club entertained the freshmen and so P w mores of the department. The Science Club has opened its meetings to the Alpha Theta Pi, which in turn has cooperated in planning proĀ¬ grams. Of especial interest to the Home Economics students was a meat cutting demonstration by the Cudahy Meat Company of Kansas City. Plans are being made for the club members living near Kansas City to attend the annual convention of the American Home Economics Association to be held in Kansas City the last of June. Honorary members of Alpha Theta Pi are Professor Margaret Lorimer, Dean Margaret Barrett, and Mrs. Lula P. Wertman. ALPHA PHI OMEGA By Donald Stiff We, the members of Alpha Phi Omega at Park College, pledge ourĀ¬ selves individually and collectively to give unselfish service on behalf of our fellow men through the college, through Scouting and through community enterprises.ā With this pledge of service begins every formal meeting of the Scouting Fraternity, Alpha Phi Omega, which signifies the earnest desire in the hearts of every member to be of service to his fellows. The aims of Scouting, with which organization every member of the fraternity has been associated, are conĀ¬ tinued and expanded during their college days. Somewhat inactive during the first semester. Alpha Phi Omega recovered at the turning point of the school year and replenished its ranks, resuming its place among the very large universities in this country. Alpha Phi Omega, principally a service organization, is the only honorary national social service fraternity at Park College which has chapters in most educational centers. On the campus Alph a Phi Omega assembles men in the fellowship o f the Scout Oath and Law, to deve lop f riend- ship and to promote service. Normally the fraternity sponsors sevĀ¬ eral plays but this year all dramatic work was conducted under the superĀ¬ vision of the Dramatic Department, leaving no room for fraternity work in this line. Faculty sponsors include Mr. D. M. Knight, B usiness Manager o f the ColĀ¬ lege, Prof. H. Williams, Assistant ProĀ¬ fessor Setty and Dr. Young. The fraĀ¬ ternity suffered a severe blow in the death of Professor Baxter who was a charter member of this chapter. Page 95 PI KAPPA DELTA DEBATE By Wanda Jones Ladies and Gentlemen: At the close of this debate season, perhaps you were not convinced that the Federal Government should set minimum wages and maximum hours for industries ā but were you not conĀ¬ vinced that a successful year had been completed by the 1936-37 debate squad under the leadership o f Mr. Carl Dallinger? The season opened with the Winfield tournament at Winfield, Kansas on December 4 , where Jones, Donnelly, Stanton, and Schrader, representing Par k, acclaimed five victories from eight combats in which they participated. In January came the mid-season Maryville tournament at Maryville, Mo. Jones, Donnelly, Lyda and Oliver held forth for Park, and when the spoils of the battles were divided the combined teams tallied five winnings and five losses. The anti-climax to a season of intenĀ¬ sive work came when the best teams of Missouri met at the state tournament, February 19-20 at Central College, Fayette, Mo. Stanton and Schrader did laudable work when they met some of the strongest teams in the tournament. Jones and Donnelly successfully swept through this tournament undefeated. They brought back to Park the trophy lor first place in the Senior Women s D ivision. The radio debate over station WDAF of Kansas City in which StanĀ¬ ton and Schrader clashed with Rock- Puge 96 hurst College of the city was one of the most interesting of the year. 1 he climax to a successful debate season came when the team of Donnelly and Jones won second place in the Provincial Pi Kappa Delta tournament at Kirksville in April. Park defeated five of the select teams of Iowa and Missouri to carry home the second trophy of the year. ORATORY By Wanda Jones You need no introduction to the orator of the year who has so successĀ¬ fully represented Park College in this field in 1936-37. Park is proud to present the gentleman who in his forceĀ¬ ful, convincing ā yet calm ā manner won not only recognition in local work, but also in state contests Mr. Robert Swanson. In the local Peace Contest of last November, Swanson won first place with his own composition entitled āWould You End War? S econd place was awarded to a freshman who deserves recognition for the creditable work she has done in this fieldMiss Christine Gilchrist. Her oraĀ¬ tion was entitled āPeace Mothers.ā Third place winner was Mary Carroll Donnelly. In the state contest at Columbia, Mo., where eleven schools were represented, Swanson placed second. Six orators competed in the local Old Line contest in February. This time Swanson won first place, Gilchrist was second winner, and Loren Stanton w 7 as placed third. J he state Old Line contest w 7 as held at Park College on March 5 for the first time in eleven years. Again Swanson blazed through conflict to place second. This year has been most successful in the field of oratory and it has aroused much interest on the campus. May oraĀ¬ tory in 1937-38 soar to unforeseen heights through the cultivation of known talents and the discovery of unknown talents.

I guess Iād better he getting downtown now, because the bus leaves at say, whatās going on down in Alumni? Choir pracĀ¬ tice? Lets have a look, oh, never mind that; there II be more buses. How many are there in the choir? Over a hundred I That must be about a fifth of the student body. Do they all sing at once? Hm. Thatās quite an idea, dividing them into two choirs. Does one choir take the morning service and the other the evening service? Well, feature my guessing it right. And they trade every month, huh! Say, didn t they all sing something at Christmas time? It seems to me like I remember an unusual choir procesĀ¬ sion. They sang the ah the ā what was it? Oh, yes; Handel s Messiah. You know, they had some fine soloĀ¬ ists for that. It s too bad you couldn t have come home for it. Letās see, Mrs. Griffith was the soprano, wasnāt she? And then there was a tall, blond contralto. Yeah, Billie Mattox. I tried doing my hair like that, but it doesnāt seem to look well on me. Who was the tenor? I ve been trying to remember ever since I saw him up in the speech room. Thatās it, Carl Dallinger! And the baritone was Dave Weaver. Donāt you think my memory has improved since you left last fall? Was it the Chancel or Antiphonal Choir that sang. Olivet to Calvary at the Linwood Presbyterian Church on Palm S unday? Oh, then if the ChanĀ¬ cel Choir sang in the city, the AntiĀ¬ phonal Choir must have sung the same thing out here. I wish I d heard it. Did they use the same soloists both times? Then Audy Anschuetz and Margaret Stansell sang the soprano parts, and Carl Dallinger and Dave Weaver had the other parts. I don t suppose they did anything on Easter then, with all that before. They did? Dr. Griffith must be a grand director to accomplish so much. What did they sing? The Redemption was sung at ComĀ¬ mencement. Oh, you donāt say? It has three parts? I see, the Passion for Easter, and the Resurrection and AscenĀ¬ sion at Commencement. I even know who wrote the Redemption; it was Mozart. Wasnāt it? Well then, who did? Oh, yes; Gounod. I knew it was one of those great composers. Is it the Antiphonal or the Chancel Choir that I ve heard over the radio? The A Cappella? How many belong to it? Only twenty-two of them? They must have lots of fun taking trips to so many churches in and around KanĀ¬ sas City and singing over KMBC and WDAF. Thanks for showing me around. I think Iāll try out for choir when I come here next year. I might even learn something. Page 99 I FRITSCHY USHERS By Irving Deilil T TAKES a Fritschy usher to believe thatthis year over fifty Park men heard Heifitz, saw the Ballet Russe, heard Nelson Eddy, attended three other big musical events, ate at the Hotel Kansas Citian and had a huge dinner at Corti s at practically no personal expense. Added to those benefits there is a cultural gain for future years that can not be estimated. Fritschy ushers are aware of their opportunity, and they are deeply thankful to their director, Dr. Griffith, and their benefactor, Mr. Fritschy. A few of the Fritschy Ushers Mens Glee. Clnh % Page 100 THE PARKOLLEGIANS c ood evening, ladies and gen- VJ tlemen. From the beautiful Thompson Commons overlooking the broad Missouri, we bring you the music of Bishop Timmons and his Parkol- legians. This cheerful greeting together with the familiar strains of āIdaā introĀ¬ duces another one of those Friday night concerts. The ParkoIIegians have worked hard toward precision in the blending of modern harmonies with a strict emphasis on āswing.ā The aggregation has many outstandĀ¬ ing features ā the voice of Johnny Myers, the hot choruses of Malcolm Ramey on his āslush-pump,ā and the jam work of swingsters Kiser, Ramey, Steinh aus and Timmons. Special mention should be made of Timmons, under whose direction the band has been for the past two years. The success o f the orchestra is largely responsible to the leadership of this talented pianist and arranger. Much praise also is due to each member of the band. In the spirit of cooperation, they h ave consistently endeavored to produce the style of music the students enjoy. The ParkoIIegians, taking an active part in the social activities of the school, have played at many of the formal parties during the year. The members of the band are: Gerald Kiser, John Myers and Franklyn Klein, saxophones; Paul Fink, trumpet; MalĀ¬ colm Ramey and Arnold Johnson, tromĀ¬ bone; Karl Steinhaus, bass; and Timmons, piano. Page 101 PARK COLLEGE ORCHESTRA By Ruth Marie Faurot Much of the success of the orchestra, this year, is due to the addition of new members and talent from the freshman class. The orchestra is larger than ever before. More difficult music has been introĀ¬ duced into the repertoire, including numbers by Beethoven, Tschaikowsky, and Schubert. The orchestra has also made its initial try in accompanying soloists. Grant Mathews, violinist, and the orchestra have worked on de Beroit s 4 Ninth Concerto.ā It is the plan of the orchestra to accompany annually any instrumental music majors in a concerto. Another feature o f the yearās work is the trip to Kansas City High Schools. Three concerts are played during the dayās tour. If arrangements can be made, the orchestra broadcasts a program. A concert is also presented to the Park ColĀ¬ lege audience at some time in the spring each year.

The big event of the first few months was the performance on the opening day of the American Royal Livestock show in Kansas City. The baton twirlĀ¬ ing specialties of our new drum majoress were a feature of this program. The band then presented a chapel program, th e success of which called forth from the student body the request for more such programs. The band gives a concert annually, on the White House lawn at the May Fete. These events provide the organization with interest and activity. The cumulative library of the band now contains a large selection of pieces, which keeps the organization a live group throughout the entire year. Claude Rader .... Sponsor Richard Renfro .

With tbe addition of Buren C. Robbins to tbe speech department this year stuĀ¬ dents realized a desire to study draĀ¬ matic production under a master o f tbe art. Tbe dramatic instinct survived the grueling period of technical instruction and early in February tbe speech department, aided by participants from the whole school, presented an evening of histrionic bits that were definitely achievements from a poetic tragedy of the Russian Revolution, Flight o f the Herons, the scene shifted to the man- tlepiece where M anik in ancl Minikin engaged in repartee not usually assoĀ¬ ciated with bisque images. The humor of love me, love my dog was ably demonstrated in Elmer Riceās The Passing of Chow-Chow. From the romantic Catesby to the dashing thief of Duetto and the pathetic Ital ian and his Rosa, Professor Robbins displayed his own capacities as an entertainer at the Herr House soiree. On Good Friday, El Cl ub Cervantes made its annual presentation of El Cristo in the original Spanish, dramaĀ¬ tizing the Easter observance of a New Mexican religious sect. The Patsy created a definite place for herself in the hearts o f the Park audience as she convinced them that there s no use crying over spilt milk, because there s enough water in it already. Student directors took a fling at one- acts with the ambitious undertaking of Edna St. Vincent Millayās blank verse phantasy Ario da Capo and Milne s Man in the Bowler Hat. In reviewing the year s performances we suggest curtain calls for Rose Marie Montaldo as a sympathetic mother, for Billie Mattoxās resonant voice, for Mary Smitsonās convincing characteriĀ¬ zation of āGrace,āā and for Jean Meister s spirited interpretations. Orchids to Arzy, star of the back stage, who prompted and painted with equal grace. Nor will we soon forget the dependable Millyā Daniels, swiftĀ¬ sewing Swanson, George ' Hutch chief of the sound effects department, and Keith Requa and Frank McDowell, who laboriously constructed a new switchboard and added make-up equipĀ¬ ment to the Theta Alpha Phi room. Date nights spent in rehearsal, flats nailed at three a. m., hair starched with paint, properties coerced from recalciĀ¬ trant ownersā hands, the intriguing odor Page 104 of grease paint, new spot lights in action and the lights dimming on the final perĀ¬ formance will mark a season of definite growth and expansion behind the footĀ¬ lights at Park. Whether you want to be an actor or just want to use the stage door there ' s Theta Alpha Phi, national honorary dramatics fraternity, the local chapter of which opened its portals to Robert Swanson, Frank McDowell, Jane Sand- idge, Lucille Swanson and Elizabeth Kern as the season closed.

A. By Frank McDowell The Y.M.C.A., under the leadership of hard-working Harold Hohwieler and the earnest advice of the faculty sponĀ¬ sor, Prof. Teener, has had one of its busiest and most successful years. The year opened with the Y OrientaĀ¬ tion program. Tom Curey, youth leader, was the first visitor to the campus under the auspices o f the Y. Dr. Samuel Guy Inman, noted authority on Spanish America, was the next visitor. He delivered two lectures to the student body. A study of economic conditions and what the college student can do to improve them for the average person was started early in November by Mr. Hay es Rich ardson, of Kansas City UniĀ¬ versity. A tour by Y.M.-Y.W. members to several industries in Kansas City followed. Miss Grace Sloan Overton was a visitor to the campus in January. She discussed Campus Relationships, and held conferences with students during the day. Soon after, the first of several meetings was held in Dr. Adamsā study :n the chapel. A large number of men were present to take part in the spirited discussions. D uring Spiritual Emphasis Week, the Y.M. and Y.W. cooperated with Dr. Jones in making the program a success. Early in February, a conĀ¬ ference at Baker University was attended by two Yā members. Athletic events promoted by the Y were the singles tennis tournament held in October, in which a number of men took part. The annual ping-pong tourĀ¬ nament was held in February. In the spring the Yā doubles tennis tournaĀ¬ ment occupied the sport headlines as rackets were once more wielded with skill and ability. OFFICERS Harold Hohwieler. President George Mace .... .

Each new girl bas a āCampus Sister who introĀ¬ duces her to an interest group that meets regularly at one of the faculty homes. This year trips were made for the purpose of seeing actual conditions existing in the world of work. Several Y members heard eminent authorities who spoke before the Kansas City Social Hygiene Society, while others were sent to Baker University to the annual citizenship conference. Proceeds from a Japanese bazaar of two days duration are to be used to pay part of the expenses of several delegates to the regional Y conference held at Hollister soon after school closes in the spring. Problems of purely local interest are not forgotten. During the second semesĀ¬ ter mixed discussion groups, student-led, meet at faculty homes every two weeks. Halloweāen and Washingtonās BirthĀ¬ day parties, group singing and a ping- pong tournament are pleasant features of a busy year. OFFICERS Dorothy McAfee. President Maxine McCarthy . . .

HEā S a ministerial ā is an V expression occasionally heard on the campus intended to establish a criterion of mediocrity and insipidity. That this charge is unfair may be noticed when it is discovered that the ministerial have served more people than any other group on the campus. This group has as its purpose the proĀ¬ motion of Christian fellowship among its members, the motivation of Christian living and the stimulation of Christian evangelism. Not all of the members of the group are training for the ministry nor are all students training for the ministry members of the group. The association has, at the present time, a membership of fifteen. Some outstanding accomplishments of the group may be mentioned to justĀ¬ ify its existence. Foremost is the unaided presentation of a church service for prisĀ¬ oners at the Federal penitentiary at Feavenworth. In addition week by week the group has supplied Sunday school teachers, a Sunday school superintendĀ¬ ent, gospel teams and individual speakers to interested groups in a radius of fifty miles. Three members o f the association have regular churches. Under the leadership of Salvatore Sciangula, the Ministerial Association has expanded from a local group serving a limited number of students to one serving hundreds of people over a wide area. The appreciative audiences indiĀ¬ cate that this needed service is popular and of a nature to foster much goodwill toward Park College. Page 110 CAMERA Ā a || . .. ā¢ā ā . .
