Each year this club produces three major plays, one each quarter, and with the performance of Philip Barry's Hotel Universe, at Commencement. June 13. the roster of suc- cessrul plays produced by this organization will number 56. Last year a record in the tradition of the theatrical Green Room was painted on the rear wall of the Little Theatre. Here for all time will be placed the names of those vehicles which we chose as representatives of our modern theatre. This year, due to the unfortunate illness of Director H. Phillip Boody the Mask and Wig has been able to give but two plays, Men Must Fightâ in the fall quarter, and Hotel Universe in the spring. Professor Boody decided to use Men Must Fight because it is a sharp commentary on the vital question of war and peace. When Dean J. Clark Graham agreed to direct a play for commencement it was at first thought that his own play David would be a grand thing to produce. Unfortunately time did not permit us to study the difficult piece sufficiently to render an intelligent reading of the iambic pentameter form into which he cast it. As an alter- native Hotel Universe. was selected. Students in the college who have taken active parts in the play work of the Mask and Wig are: Mary Jones. Margaret Locks. Virginia Kline. Jean Hargrave. Louise Howerter, Nellie Weiss. Arlouine Russell. Howard Hansen, David Shirley. Allan Page. Ivan Llttech. Fred Gaenslen. George Sheldon. Robert Grimm. Ed- ward Krause. Waldo Gtilian. Tom Bunsa. John Dennis, Stanley Scham- bers, and Ronald Kolb. A chapter of the national dramatic fraternity. Theta Alpha Phi, is located on the Ripon campus. Membership is open to those students who have taken two major, one major and two minors, or four minor parts in Mask and Wig plays. Those who are in the Theta Alpha Phi are How- ard Hansen. Mary Jones. Stanley Schambers, David Shirley. Margaret Locks. Allan Page, and H. P.

Directed by Prof. H. P. Boody. the story of the play deals with the reac- tions of Secretary of War Sewardâs family when faced with actual pros- pect of war. Three generations are revealedâthe proud matriarch Ma- dame Seward, who has lived through five wars; the Secretary, her son. who must accede to the administrationâs wishes in carrying on the fight; his wife. Laura, who is a devout pacifist, and Robert Seward, who is caught between the fires of his parents. Robert sides at first with his mother and refuses to rally to the American cause, but by doing so he comes near losing his patriotic fiancee. When, however, he learns that he is not really a Seward, but the son of an heroic British ace who died in battle. Robert joins the air force, marries the girl and flies to battle.

Howard Hansen .....Mary (ones ...David Shirley Margaret Locks .....Tom Bunsa Arlouine Russell Louise Howerter ....Waldo Gulian .....John Dennis This last play for the year was presented on June 13 in the Auditor- ium. and directed by Dean J. Clark Graham. Unique in its structure for a modern play it is not divided into acts, but adheres to the Greek unities. The story deals with a group of introspective, literally self-cen- tered people who. caught in the speli of a magic environment and the per- sonality of a fine old man. are forced to ask themselves: What is life? What is death? Each finds his answer in a series of regressions in which inhibitory elements are brought to light and erased. PRODUCTION STAFF Hansen l.rft to Rif itâKoncn, Monroe, Harris, Williams, Ohlrog e, Evans The Acting Drama class spent the first two quarters studying voice and pantomime. The last quarter was used to produce three one-act plays. The purpose of this course is to acquaint undergraduates with the mechanics of the stage, play production methods, direction, and acting, along with the general training of body and voice control. From this class comes much of the talent which makes the Mask and Wig produc- tions the successes which they have been for many years. In order to give the class a still closer contact with play production the last weeks of the year were spent on the practical theatrical project of developing all the phases of the work which any show demands. The students were assigned to publicity, scene design and construction, make- up and property organization for Hotel Universe. Under the guid- ance of the instructor. Howard Hansen, publicity was handled by Jean Hargrave and Harry Evans; crew work by Tom Monroe, Baird Wil- liams. Irvin Zarling. Lloyd Konen and Robert Grimm; make-up by Rober- ta Woodmansee, Virginia Kline.

National Forensic fraternity, continued its program inaugurated last year of conducting cha- pel programs every two weeks throughout the school year. Its members talked upon various topics of current interest. l he current year's activities consisted of several local and club debates in Wisconsin cities, attendance at the Midwest Debate Tourna- ment at St. Thomas College of St. Paul.

The seasonâs climaxâattendance at the National Pi Kappa Delta tour- nament at Houston. Texas- was enjoyed by Thomas Bunsa and Allan Michie as affirmative debaters and Joseph Wilkus and Frank Grassy as negative debaters on the Supreme court question. David Shirley repre- sented Ripon College in Oratory. The freshman pledges of Pi Kappa Delta attended the Delta Sigma Rho Junior Tournament at the University of Wisconsin on March 27 and 28. making a very creditable showing. The debaters. Robert Giert- sen and Thomas Alderson, affirmative, and Elmer Sutherland and Erwin Wickstrom, negative, won 50 per cent of their debates. Debate Question: Resolved: that Congress be empowered to over- ride, by a two-thirds vote, deci- sions of the Supreme Court de- claring acts of Congress unconsti- tutional. I. Affirmative Case A. Definition of terms. B. Very brief history of question and current application. C. Necessity 1. Supreme Court is unchecked a. Indefinite nature of Con- stitution does not make it an effective check. b. Amendment inadequate (1 ) Prestige of Court decisions makes hard to repass a measure (2) Once passed, part of Constitution and subject to inter- pretation of Supreme Court c. Justices politically appointed for life: impeachment only for offense: decisions not vetoed by anyone. 2. Danger of unchecked position in fact that Supreme Court is pol- icy-determining branch of our government in actuality. a. Commerce clause of Constitution used by Supreme Court to determine policy (1 ) Child Labor declared unconstitutional merely by inter- pretation against an overwhelmingly favorable vote by representatives of the people. b. Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments also used to determine policy. (1) Minimum wage laws declared unconstitutional and Chief Justice Taft admits policy-determination. II. Negative Case A. Evils of such a system 1. Cause court confusion due to fact that Supreme Court will not know if it should interpret new legislation in light of specific amendments or general constitution. 2. Less democratic- cuts amendment process off after first stage B. No Need 1. Need of interpreting body in any constitutional form of govern- ment and Supreme Court fulfilling duty adequately. 2. Present system adequate in normal timesâamendment system a. Slowness in Congress, takes states on average only 17 months to ratify b. All amendments except Child Labor that submitted to states have been ratified c. More democratic form 3. Present system adequate in case of an emergency a. Article III.

Professor Boody was unable to make the trip. DEBATERS AT HOUSTON ( 2 Shiri.f.v March 26. on one of the local 'âfast trains. After a breath-taking trip to Chicago, plans for the southern trip were really formulated due to the high pressureâ of one of the Southern Pacific agents. At dusk Chicago was left in the background, and the Illinois Central sped its way toward the âSunny South. It is a matter of dispute wheth- er most of the evening was spent in the day coach or in the convenient rear coach with its enlivening atmosphere. Yes. it was here that Wilkus tried to pen a letter to his sister. which turned out to be more of a series of pen scratches upon the paper. (Was this caused by the move- ment of the train or the environment. Joe?) During the course of the evening and the next day. Illinois. Tennessee. Mississippi, and Louisiana slowly slipped by. Two things were most strikingâthe increased heat and the terrible living conditions of negroes and poor whites. Finally, on Friday evening the city of New Orleans was reached. A taxi hurried the delegation from the station in the modern district across Canal street to the Montelone Hotel in the atmospheric French district. A quick shower and change followed rapidly. A small French restaurant was then selected and a sea-food meal devoured. This was real atmosphere of Franceâbut. oh! how they charged for that atmos- phere! The boys didnât take the taxi which was so obligingly waiting to show them the spots. but rather took pleasure in spending the even- ing finding their own local color. All day Saturday was spent further exploring the old French district, visiting the famous market place, taking a ferry boat trip across the Mis- sissippi. and seeing the residential district of New Orleans. All day and evening were not enough to scratch the surface of interesting places in this historic city. Sunday was spent on the Southern Pacific train en route to Houston. The real heat of the south became almost unbearable. The monotony of the trip was broken for the majority of the party late in the day by the company of several of the opposite sex who likewise were ostensibly on their way to Houston to participate in forensic work. The rooms at the large 1.000 room Rice Hotel proved most inviting to the Ripon delegation that Sunday evening after reg- istration. The tournament propei started in earnest on Monday morning and continued with rapidity until the final banquet on Friday evening. The Supreme Court, international relations and this and that oratorical method of solving the na- tion's problems comprised the din of lobby conversa- tion during the periods outside of contest hours. One soon realized that he was a member of the larg- est forensic fraternity in the world and that this convention had hit a rec- ord breaking attendance of 650 delegates from 120 colleges in 35 states and Puerto Rico. As the tournament started. 105 menâs teams and 70 women's were entered in debate. Eighty men and 47 women took part in extemporaneous speak- ing events, and 73 men and 41 women contested the oratorical rounds. The Ripon boys found plenty of time to see Houston and the sur- rounding countryâespecially after the debaters were eliminated. Now' there was the evening that our orator hadâhow many dates. Dave? - and Michie and Bunsa were likewise fulfilling their roles as Beau Brum- mels and Casanovas. Cameron Beck, manager of the New' York Stock Exchange institute addressed the college speakers in the closing banquet Friday night. New- ly elected officers, led by S. R. Toussaint of Monmouth College. Mon- mouth. Illinoisâformer Ripon College debaterâas president, were in stalled. Trophies w'ere awarded to the winning debate teamsâBaylor Univrsity women of Waco. Texas and St. Thomas College men of St. Paul. Minn, and the winners in oratory and extemporaneous speaking. Late Friday evening Houston was left behind as the Ripon forensic men started on their homeward route. Early the next morning they arrived in Dallas and spent the day seeing the future headquarters of the 1 exas Centennial celebration. Again that evening the day coach wfas boardedâthis time of the M-K-T railroadâand the night was passed endeavoring to sleep on the w'ay to St. Louis. At. St. Louis Michie was left behind to attend to important business, which kept him busy for some days to come. The rest of the Ripon party took the new' stream-lined Abraham Lincoln of the Alton line and sped toward Chicago. Here again some of the party were detained for sev- eral days because of serious engagements. So. through much difficulty. Wilkus and Grassy finally arrived back in Ripon on Sunday evening in the midst of a snow storm. This was indeed a contrasting finish of a de- lightful forensic trip! Bunsa.

Delta chapter of Alpha Chi Alpha, has been active in journalism on the Ripon campus. Delta, the fourth chapter to be created, uses the âScribbler, quarterly literary publication, as an outlet for its literary expression. The purpose of Alpha Chi Alpha, national journalism fraternity for women, is first, to honor those women who have shown ability and have taken an active part in collegiate journalism: secondly, to advance the study of the various phases of journalism. Members of Alpha Chi Alpha are eagerly awaiting the news of the national convention to be held this summer on the campus of the Univer- sity of California. Four such national conventions have been held 1929 at Oquaka. 111., 1931. Estes Park. Colo., and 1933. Black Hills. S. D. Harriet Haas and Martha Waters represented the Delta chapter at the convention in 1933. The Alpha Chi Alpha leap year dance sponsored annually by the Delta chapter has always been most successful, and coeds look forward to the opportunity of turning the tables on the gentlemen for that evening.

Margaret Soberg. and Donald O'Brien to the positions, of editor-in-chief, associate editor, and sports editor, respectively, the first issue of the Ripon College Days this year set a precedent by being the first paper in which all three major editorial positions were filled by the same people who had filled them the year previous. 7'he appointments of these people to their respective chairs assured again the same sane conservatism regarding student participation in na- tional student questions, the same candid approval and support of worthy student enterprises, and the same clean, clear-cut. reliable write-ups of intercollegiate Big Four and Midwest conference athletics, that had been characteristic the year preceding. The advent of Elizabeth Fish to the business managership of the Col- lege Days this year marked the first time in the history of Wisconsin's Oldest College Newspaper that advertising national in scope was able - to appear within its pages. It was through this newly-found medium of income that the Days was able to give its subscribers this year two extra editions at no extra cost to them. For the first time in the history of the paper, the Days this year was awarded a first class honor rating of Excellent by the N.S.P.A. ) Through the increased amount of funds made available in this way this year, and by close coop- eration with the Crimson, the editors and the busi- ness manager found it possible to use more pic- tures than had been usual in former years. The editors, in appreciation of the splendid work on the part of a large supporting staff, insist that no write-up of this year's College Days would be complete without an acknowledgment of the fine assistance given by the following members ot the staff: Ramona Winkler, who as news editor was an invaluable asset to the staff: Dorothy Griffith, as fine a society editor as anyone could want: Richard Stone and Harry Mathos. who as the circulation department, saw that the campus and outside subscribers got the papers soon after they were printed: Helen Pares. Marjorie OâBrien.

The Ripon College Crimson is this year the result of an attempt to âpicturize the campus life of Ripon College. The book is featuring the Daily Diary section which presents a composite pictorial account of the events of the past year. This section has been edited by David Shirley, with the photography of Milton Lloyd. Another experiment of the 1936 Crimson is the inclusion of a picture large enough to insure future recognition of everyone in Ripon College. Although we must admit that this particular feature leaves lots to be desired, still, it was an experiment, and we believe an experiment that will make for finer Crimsons in the future. Still another addition to which we feel we can point with pride is the internal margin scheme. Done in light powder gold, these marginal strips force the reading to the outer edges of the page where the eye can take in everything without tiring âaround the fold movement. Credit for this book goes to every member of the staff, all. who alike performed the tedious and the pleasant task in the same spirit of cheerful interest. T he Crimson is especially indebted to Milton IJoyd. who has given so much of his time to this book, and who has through all worked unceasingly and without reference to his own needs. The Crimson also is grateful to Carolyn Page. Margaret Chittenden. Carol Kleinschmit. and Mary Jane Lorimer. who have sacrificed much for it. Franklin Von dei Sump is another who deserves credit, as do Em- meth Luebke and Raymond Westphal for the photography on the under-class panels. Nor can the Crimson forget Howard Hansen and Frank- lin Anders who stood so faithfully by it in its hour ot need. And then while we are at it. may we also thank Fred Inversetti. from whose protographs Bai moartvkr this book looks out at you: Joseph Morris, the real editor of the Crimson, and Charles Inversetti, who. in the matter of gold, rushed in where oth- ers shivered at treading. There are others and others and others we would like to mention at this time Donald O'Brien, our sports editor; Anne Baumgartner, asso- ciate editor; Marie Hansen. Esther Cheatle. Thomas Monroeâspace for- bids our going on. So now it is with that old feeling of: âGosh, we re glad itâs overâ that we say to the Crimson to come, Ripon College is the potentially perfect Crimson. Will you make it an actuality? We think you willâand good luck. 1936 PERSONNELâ Editor, Claude S. Pray: business manager. Harold Shebeck: associate editor. Anne Baumgartner. ArtâLynn Fargo.

These publications are filled with a variety of excellent work of a literary nature, which have been contributed by un- dergraduates. Through the various classes, in composition, literary tal- ent is brought to light and cultivated. Members of Alpha Chi Alpha. National Journalistic Sorority, sponsor literary activities of the college. The editorial board of the magazine for 1935-36 is made up of Howard Hansen.

In addition to playing lor most ol the home football and basketball games, it numbers among its contributions to the past year, the forma- tion of Phi Mu Epsilon, honorary band fraternity: the presentation of âA Cruise on the S.S. Riponia. â annual spring band concert, which was given in the college gymnasium. Friday. April 17; marching with the R.O.T.C. battalion on Monday battalion formations: and a musical contribution to the ruination of Lawrence College s Homecoming, at Appleton, Oct. 26. The band this year has made a special effort to better acquaint the students and members of Ripon College with the various activities of the band. It has done this through the regular mediums of newspaper pub- licity. through the welcoming of the contestants in the Fox valley district band tournament, which was held here Saturday. May 2. through the awarding of band sweaters and election of Phi Mu Epsilon. The organization of Phi Mu Epsilon is considered quite a forward step by all band men in that it has created a nucleus around which inter- est in the Ripon college band can crystallize. The fraternity was formed at a meeting of all band men. April 24. It has as its purpose the promo- tion of interest in band work and the stimulation of larger band activity. The requirements for Phi Mu Epsilon are based upon the amount of ac- tive participation and upon musical ability. The fraterntiy sponsors the annual concerts, and takes charge of the awarding of band sweaters. These last are given for two years of participation in the Ripon College Band, fulfilling attendance requirements, and passing a satisfactory music examination. The fraternity meets once a month, in college band room. Harry Stel. a member of the band for the past three years, is president of Phi Mu Epsilon and was responsible for its organization. Other off icers are: Vice president. Bill Bruhy: secretary. Lawrence Briske: treasurer. Morris Blodget. and sergeant-at-arms. William Krebs. As its first social function the fraternity sponsored a banquet for all bandsmen. Thursday. June 4. at the Maples. MacGowas.

This organiza- tion for menâs voices, held a prominent place in campus activities for forty years. During much of the same period a choral organization for womenâs voices, sometimes called the Ripon College Girls' Glee Club, and in later years, the Cecilian Chorus, also received much popular college support. Three years ago it seemed wise to combine the two organiza- tions in a group of menâs and womenâs voices, now known as the Ripon College Choir. This organization has a two-fold purpose. First it desires to introduce college students to some of the noblest music ever written in the belief that this is a priceless cultural experience and also an unusually effective educational medium. The second purpose is to bring before the public at large, by means of the radio and public appearances, the fact that Ripon. as a liberal arts col- lege. feels that it has a strong obligation to its students to develop their powers of cultural appreciation through music. The Ripon College Choir gave its annual spring concert Wednesday. April 29. It was assisted by Alyce Peschke. pianist and accompanist; Helen Husting. organist, and Hubert Slater, baritone.

In addition to the regular concerts, small concerts were given before the assemblies of several of the state high schools, among them. South Milwaukee High School. South Milwaukee, Wis.: Fort Atkinson High School. Fort Atkinson. Wis.. and Jefferson High School, Jefferson. Wis. Almost every great man who has ever lived has paid his tribute to music, but the quotation of quotations which best sums up the spirit of choral music at Ripon College is the following from the heart of J. Clark Graham. Dean of Ripon College: Choral music is richly at home in Ripon College, for all its best tradi- tions and affinities stem from the clearest beauties of mind and heart. It walks close in the footsteps of history: it bleeds with the dying martyrs; it lives with the risen Saviour: it stalks the boards with drama; it sobs with the poetry of broken love and sings with the lyrics of lifeâs eter- nal springtime. In the great choral music of the world, the human soul looks upon its own face, and finds hope and beauty still written forever there. A 1 7S MacGow.w BAND CONCERT SttKS aaBamt-ttir ('ÂŤplain Sehit inker's Allcmpl to rescue Stowaway Schick from Chief Pirate Krenke ends in ignominy. Eighty college students supported by a crew of backstage workers, were included in the 1936 Band Concert. The entertainment was nauti- cal in theme and character with a stage resembling front deck, captainâs bridge, and upper works of the cruiser S.S. Riponia. Arch MacGowan, little Scotch band director, presented a seasonal treat when he tapped his baton on the rack and started the voyage. Through pirate-infested waters, he guided the crewâa bold and hand- some captain, first and second mate, a bosân's mate (chosen for his force- ful language) and, ah! a stowaway. Among the featured numbers was a group of singing sailors' sweet- hearts. and the songs of captain, cook and crew. Special musical num- bers were: Sailors' Chorus,â âThe Chant of the Bos'n's Mate.â Ships That Pass in the Night.â And the pirates, vicious and full of tortureâ far worse than Capt.'s Kidd or Morgan. For 1936 concert was sponsored by Phi Mu Epsilon, new band fra- ternity on the campus. Donald Reitz directed all staging: ticket sales were sponsored by Lynn Fargo: advertising by Lawrence Briske; public- ity. Bill Bruhy; seating. Bill Krebs, and electricity work by Maurice Blod- gett. Following the concert and revue was a dance at the college gym. Music was furnished by the Varsity Orchestra. Thorouchma.v Oliver 80 K.O.T.C.

Poter . 92 HOME- COMING (Il. I DRONE I saw him for the first time when the morning train from Milwaukee pulled in and he got off. He wasn't impressive. Not even well-dressed. He lookedâaverage. Iâd say. and quite old. He was alone. When he passed that long red fence of the lumber yard, he paused, and looked across the street out over Ingalls field. He stood there so long, with that far-away look in his eyes, and stroking his chin all the while, that 1 im- agined he must be thinking. I wondered what about, but he finally moved on and I turned and went the other way. The next time I saw him was at the float parade later that morning. Leaning against the front of the State Bank, he followed each float as it went down the street, with mighty interested eyes, it seemed. I even heard him chuckle occasionally, too- deeply, like someone who hasnât chuckled much lately. I felt. It was several minutes after the last float had passed by. and there was nothing on the streets but the usual Satur- day splurge of farmersâ cars, before he pushed off and moved down the street. 1 don't remember what errands I was about at the time, but I saw him again early that afternoon on the campus. I had a moment to spare and he looked so just-ordinary-like that I watched him again as he passed by the numerous students on the walks. I would be willing to swear that he slowed down and almost hesitated as he passed by two fellows in R sweaters. He might have wanted to speak to them. I couldn't say. He didn't catch their eyes, however, and he passed on. My errands were more numerous than I had expected and I was kept hopping so as not to be late for the game. Thatâs how it was I saw him several times during that next hour. 1 thought it rather odd at the time, but it was necessary for me to get something from one of the classrooms on the second floor of Ingram, and glancing down the hall on my way out. I saw him again, this time sitting in a chair gazing at a mess of writ- ing on the blackboard in the front of the room. Just this old man in a classroom. Later I saw him look up, as the chapel clock bonged the one o'clock hour, and continue to watch the gold and black face for a long time. The game was a great one that afternoon: Homecoming games always are. I was lucky enough to get a seat about mid-field and I discovered him just a couple of seats away from me. Several times, during the game. I noticed that he rose, shook his fist with a Go itâumphâboy go down -umphâthat field!â and then would sit down looking rather sheepish, yet with a proud look when that boy would go it down the field. A young fellow sitting in front of him yelled to a group of his friends down below. âSay. who in hell's gotta a match, huh?â He reached deep into his pocket and drew out a box of matches and leaned over, handing them to the young fellow in front of him. Can Iâumphâhelp you outâ umphâyoung man? Oh. sure. O.K.. thanks a lot. buddy. the young fellow mumbled. The old man chuckled. âBuddy. he muttered to himself, umphâ buddy. and blew loudly into his handkerchief. When the band played the Alma Mater at the end of the game, he stood with his head bared, grey hair blowing over his forehead. I don't suppose he really sang, but his lips were moving with the music. I felt sorry for him: he looked so much like a man coming back to his old home town and finding it grown to a city. That evening Bill called me up to stop over at the house to see him a minute. When I walked in. Bill was using the phone, so I sat down in the lobby to wait. There he was again. A bunch of fellows were gathered around one end of the room and he was sitting in the cornerâ alone. I felt so sorry for the old fellow that I spoke to him. âHow did you like the game today, sir? I asked him. He looked surprised and pleased that I spoke. âFine. he said, ourâumphâboysâumphâput up aâumphâdam- ned good fight. It must seem good to get back to your Alma Mater, sir. I com- mented. wishing Bill would hurry up. and not know quite what else to say. âYesâumphâit doesâumphâson. But Iâm afraidâumphâI've grown a bit oldâumphâold. I guess. It seems soâumphâdifferent now. Bill came in then and I immediatelv excused myself and the last I saw of him was when I left. He was still sitting where I left him all alone and occasionally his head would nod as if he were very tired. n ALL- SCHOOL PICNIC Dormi.i. c When a train stopped and blew its whistle three times in Ripon on the Thursday morning ot May 28, the town knew things were going to hap- pen. Yes. and things did happen. 8:30 found the Ripon College body sitting bewilderedly in the coaches, wondering, waiting, and still hope- iuI; but 9:00 found them enlightened and busy making up their 'G ' men posses to hunt for the S.P.'s (told about in the Green Lake edition of the College Days. S.P.'s the things that only your roommate knows about, your sacred possession, your secret passion.) Frenzy raged as people began blushing at the possibilities of a ruined future. Roommates were trounced severely with many a If you did! Oh. you wouldnât dare!â That's just the meanest thing!âWell. I'll tell them about yours, so there! The police calls kept coming, giving clues to the posse leaders as to where llie chest of S.P.âs might be hidden. At Green Lake the appearance of head G-man Monroe and four regular operatives. Van Wie. Tuppcr. Maypole and Krenke, added further to the grimness of the occasion. The party left the train at Wautoma because of information that the hideout was at Waushara Beach at Silver Lake. Here everyone, anxious to find his own S.P. before the rest of the col- lege did. rushed wildly about, mixing up the clues and getting his clothes dirty. The huge chest of S.P.'s when found brought surprises aplenty and enough embarrassment for a year to many trying to recover some light of their lives. Judge Shirley was tough, but tougher was the lot of the posses that had tailed in the search. Theirs was the task of doing any stunt suggested. And they did it. too. After a lunch of potato salad and wieners the group split up into small groups for golf, baseball, swimming, canoeing, horseshoes (what would a picnic be without barnyard golf ), riding, hiking, playing the slot ma- chines. and hitch-hiking back and forth to Wautoma. The picnic, like all good picnics do. wound up around a huge bonfire, with everyone humming the music and doing his best to follow the words of the old favorites printed in the College Days, now half obscured by the gathering dusk. The fire lasted a long while and yet not nearly long enough. With all the wood exhausted within a half mile of the place, and with the special train at 7:30 whistling impatiently down at Wautoma. the pic- nic was declared ended. The music in the baggage car ahead played on and on but it had no dancers. Those who had been so enthusiastic about it on the trip up. had deserted it. They were back in the seats tired out and happily musingâall of which goes to show that the second annual Ripon College All-School Picnic, directed by Coach Carl H. Doehling. was a big success. MILITARY BALL FRIDAY, JANUARY 31, 1936 96 Smith Howerter When Cadet Lieutenant Colonel Kenneth Smith, battalion commander and general chairman, and Miss Louise Howerter. honorary lieutenant colo- nel and battalion sponsor led the grand march through the saber arch made by the junior mem- bers of the R.O.T.C. class Friday, Jan. 31. they for- mally opened the 1936 Military Ball. Lynn Fargo Chairman of Orchestra Oswald I.undh Chairman of Refreshment Franklin Anders Chairman of Invitations Cadet Major Emmeth Luebke. battalion execu- tive officer, and Miss Vir- ginia Kline, honorary ca- det major were second in the line pasing under the saber arch, and were in the receiving line from 10 to 10:30. The sixteenth an- nual Military Ball featured the music of Bill Carlsenâs orchestra of Milwaukee. Ki.i.vk Lubbke Claude Pray Chairman of Publicity David Smiki.kv Chairman of Arrangements Frank Grassy Chairman of Decorations 98 How a Military Ball is Made The 1936 Military Ball, sponsored by Alpha Tau Sigma, officersâ fra- ternity of Ripon College, was the product of weeks of effort on the part of the R.O.T.C. department. Plans were drawn up right after the opening of the winter term, and the following committees were appointed by Cadet Lieut. Colonel Kenneth Smith, general chairman of the dance: Decorations: Frank Grassy, chairman. Angelo Giaudrone, John Shirer. Orvil Gransee. Hubert Konopacki. Publicity. Tickets and Programs: Claude Pray, chairman, Emmeth Luebke. Robert Rashid. Horatio Krawczak. Refreshments: Ossie Lunde, chairman. Myron Marshek. Orchestra: Lynn Fargo, chairman, George Sheldon. Arrangements: David Shirley, chairman. Charles Lloyd. Invitations: Frank Anders, chairman. Gail Taylor. Friday. Jan. 31. was set as the date. The publicity committee went to work immediately. Large posters were made up and distributed through- out the city of Ripon and in Fond du Lac. Oshkosh. Berlin. Brandon. Waupun and other neighboring towns. A program of red. white and silver metallic coated paper, carrying the military insignia was ordered. Five hundred invitation were made, printed and mailed out by the spon- sors to prominent reserve officers within this district. A number of orchestras were under consideration, but the choice was finally settled on Bill Carlsen's orchestra, of Milwaukee. There was con- siderable apprehension in the signing of this band, inasmuch as they were under radio contract and could not leave Milwaukee until after 7:30 in the evening of the 31st. and blocked roads might have put the ball in an embarrassing situation. The decorations were begun Wednesday night, the 29th. and work went on all that night and all the next day. By midnight of the 30th the real work was done. If a military ball has heroes, two might be men- tioned for this one. They were Frank Grassy and Angelo Giaudrone who worked a continuous 30-hour stretch on the job. The arrangements were completed Friday afternoon and the refreshments were brought down that night. As a preliminary to the ball, a presentation tea dance was given Mon- day afternon. Jan. 27. after the presentation of sponsors ceremony. At this time the following sponsors were presented to their respective organ- izations: Louise Howerter. R.O.T.C. battalion: Virginia Kline and Irene Grota. also to the battalion: Ramona Winkler. Co. A; Anne Baumgartner. Co. B: Dorothy Griffiths. Co. C: Roberta Woodmansee, Co. D. As patrons and patronesses for the ball the following people were named: Dr. and Mrs. Silas Evans. Dean and Mrs. J. Clark Graham. Col. and Mrs. W. E. Haseltine. Capt. and Mrs. R. M. Thoroughman. and Capt. and Mrs. M. F. Oliver. The band began playing at 9:30. The receiving line formed at 10:00. and at 10:30 the R.O.T.C. members and their partners were called togeth- er in a mock batalion formation, which was broken up by command from Cadet Lieutenant Colonel Kenneth Smith, battalion commander, to pass under an arch of sabers held by the junior members of the R.O.T.C. unit as a beginning of the grand march. JUNIOR PROM FRIDAY. MAY II, 1936 100 Kin,§ Robert R. McDonald. Eau Chi ire 101 Queeji Virginia Kline Kaukauna 102 Court of Honor l.ifi to Rightâ(irota, Dickhut, Klcinsolnnit, MacDonald, Zodiner, Taylor, Rylaild When Prom Queen Virginia Kline and King Robert MacDonald stepped down from the throne platform to lead the 1936 junior prom in the grand march, they were followed by a coed court of honor and their escorts. These girls were members of the junior class and were chosen two each from Bartlett. Parkhurst and Harwood Halls. Since Miss Kline was a member of Lyle Hall, her court of honor was chosen, accord- ing to precedent, from the other three sororities. These girls were Miss Carol Kleinschmit. Oshkosh, and Miss Lois Taylor. Fond du Lac. repre- senting Harwood; Miss Eleanor Dickhut. Chicago, and Miss Irene Grota. Berlin, representing Bartlett: and Miss Irene Zodtner, Portage, and Miss Maxine Ryland. Antigo. representing Parkhurst. The grand march, given in a new inward movement formation this year formally opened the dance. The march was begun from the throne platform at the north end of the gymnasium, where the thrones of the King and Queen were flanked on either side by davenports on which were seated the members of the court of honor. 105 How a Prom is Made There was a time early in February when the 1936 Junior Prom was only an idea; a handful of sample programs, a collection of orchestra com- munications. and sketches ot decoration plans. Gradually from this hodge-podge grew the idea of a âstar dust' theme, to be centered around Hoagy Carmichaelâs immortal melody of that name. Dave Sebora and Kurt Radtke began a series of sessions to plan and discuss what could be done to turn the gymnasium into a veritable star kingdom, the setting for the 1936 Prom. Theirs was the problem of weaving an ultra modern idea into the ever popular and refreshing spring theme. Considerable care was used in selecting a band. Gene Zimmerman, the chairman of the orchestra committee, received many bids from name bands, but after eliminating all but three of these bands, he finally chose Noble and Donnelly and their Goldcoasters. formerly of the Drake Hotel, in Chicago. Desiring to carry out the spring theme. Eleanor Dickhut, chairman of the programs, decided on an innovation in the matter of dance programs. Endeavoring to give the dancers a program as well as a semi-favor she purchased a silver metal program with the Ripon College insignia etched in blue on the cover. As head of the invitations committee. Joe Wilkus worked faithfully to bring to Ripon a number of the state notables. Gov. La Follette and Hoagy Carmichael were both invited as well as many of the alumni who had given their promises to appear. The first week before the Prom, construction of the decorations was begun. All of the committee heads and the escorts of the girls on the court of honor were put to work on the decorations. Monday night the gym was prepared for the real construction work. Frames were built, crepe paper stretched, stars cut, and painted, and a hundred other necessary things were accomplished in this preparatory evening. Under the direction of Dave Sebora and Kurt Radtke panels were painted and trimmed during the following day. and that night. Tuesday night, some of these were put in place. A great deal of crepe paper was also laid this second night. Wednesday night, the third night, the work went far into the night, and when work was finally knocked off. the major portion of the work was done. Work, however, went only slowly all the next day. and by night. Thursday night, the last planned for decorating, the gym began to show some semblance of the original plans. Late that night the last few stars were hung, and finishing touches were made. The lights had been arranged by Hubert Konopacki. and were turned on. giving to the whole decoration scheme in its completed form the planned effect, perfectly. Patrons and patronesses for the Prom were Dean and Mrs. J. Clark Graham. Dean Grace Goodrich. Mr. and Mrs. Carl H. Doehling, and Dr. and Mrs. J. F. Groves. The guests of honor for the occasion were Gov. and Mrs. Philip La Follette. Mayor and Mrs. William H. Barber, Mr. and Mrs. Clyde Christ. Col. and Mrs. W. E. Haseltine, Mr. and Mrs. James L. Stone. Mr. and Mrs. Charles Engelbracht. and Mr. and Mrs. Jasper G. Pickett. 10+ Mrs. Christ SOCIAL COMMITTEE To RowâShirley, Pray, Lousier First RowâSchultz, Kline, Hyland. Mitchell, Shirer This year a new policy was adopted by the Social Committee. For- merly two members horn each house served on the committee- the social chairman and the house president. It is now composed of the social chairman from each house, a member of the league, and the faculty com- mittee. The latter includes Mrs. Christ, chairman. Miss Bagemihl. Mrs. Hall. Mr. MacGowan and Mr. Henderson. 'Lhe Social Committee plans some all-school entertainment during the first quarter, and this year during the fall quarter three after-dinner dances were held in the college gymnasium. The Varsity orchestra fur- nished the music. Each house cooperated by donating two dollars to pay the orchestra as there is no fund to cover the cost of these entertain- ments. This year a new plan for the obtaining of dates for a party was ini- tiated. Each house sets its date in a given order so one house which has the first privilege may obtain whatever dates they wish before the house which has second or third choice may set their date. The house which has first choice one quarter has fourth choice the next and seventh the next. In the election of the Prom King voted upon, the candidate with the majority of votes was Robert MacDonald. The committee this year included Eleanor Dickhut. Bartlett: Virginia Kline. Lyle: Maxine Ryland. Parkhurst. Ann Mitchell. Harwood: John Shirer. Merriman: Woodrow Tupper. Smith: Claude Pray. Sanford: Dav- id Shirley. West: Verle Miller. Woodside; Oswald Lunde, Tracy: Harold Shebeck, Duffie, and Lloyd Krenke, League. 106 Coach Cari. II. Doeiii.isg FOOTBALL Mcnge, Miller, Lyle, Branchaud, Izdcpski, Pray, Harness, Shebeck, Mgr.

Doehling were to be asked to name his favorite style ol offense, he probably would pick without hesitation that which is based on so-called breaks. That is the offensive his 1935 Redmen used almost exclusively and they not only turned in Ripon's best grid record in Doehling's 12-year regime here, but earned undisputed possession of the Midwest conference title as well. Alertness was the keynote of the team's play as it drove to four victo- ries, a tie. and two defeats in seven games and outscored its opponents, 58 to 31. So-called breaks, in the nature of blocked punts, intercepted passes, and recovered fumbles were responsible for seven of the nine touchdowns the Redmen scored, a returned punt and lateral pass combi- nation for another, and straight football for only one! Ripon backed up this spectacular but effective offense with one of the strongest defensive outlays in history and allowd opponents only two touchdowns through the line, two on passes and three points on a field goal. Ripon also scored a Held goal. RIPON 6 MILLIKAN 0 An idea of what the season was to be like was gained in the opening game of the season at Decatur. Illinois, when Art Fallon, fleet-footed quarterback, intercepted a pass on his own five-yard line and went 95 yards to a touchdown, netting Ripon a 6-0 upset triumph over a Millikan University eleven that didnât lose another game all season. Aside from this one break, Ripon's offense was pitifully weak and only a fine show- ing by the line with Miller, sturdy sophomore tackle; Zunk. sophomore center: Junghans, senior guard and co-captain, and Smith, veteran end. outstanding, plus a couple of bad breaks for the losers, kept Millikin from scoring. Kolash did some remarkable punting, twice kicking inside Mil likin s five-yard line and once from behind his own goal out to midfield. RIPON 0 CARLETON 0 Ripon held Carleton to a scoreless tie here in the Midwest conference opener, with the finest defensive showing of the year, once stopping the high-powered Carls for four downs on the two-yard line. There never was any doubt as to the caliber of Ripon's line after this remarkable exhi- bition, and it continued as one of the outstanding reasons why opponents' ground attacks proved so futitle as to be almost negligible. Regulars in the forward wall henceforth were: Ken Smith and Harry Evans, tall, swift-footed ends, both of whom were demons on punt covering and tackling: Kurt Radtke and Lloyd Miller, one of the sweetest pairs of tac- 108 kies in recent Ripon football history and per- haps the major reason why the line was as strong as it was: Lloyd Junghans. popular co-captain who fought so hard that he usu- ally had to be taken from the lineup because of injuries; A1 Lampe, whose 210 pounds of muscle made him a powerhouse in the left side of the line, and Les Harness, stocky sophomore who provided brilliant interfer- ence for his backfield mates, guards: and, Dick Martini and Eugene Zunk. sophomore centers, who gave every indication of up- holding the traditions established by a long line of brilliant Ripon centers. The Redmen were in scoring position against the Carls three times, but never had the punch to score. Once they drove from behind their own goal line to the Carleton 28. as Giaudrone broke away for a 28-yard run and then threw a long pass to Smith, but were run back to midfield on attempted passes and fumbles. In the final period Giaudrone returned a punt 25 yards to the Carleton 10. but four plays got no further than the two-yard line. With the persistence of a mosquito on a hot summer night, the ever-menacing little Gel Giaudrone toted the subsequent punt right back to the 12-yard stripe but again Ripon ran out of gas and the Maize took the ball. Giaudrone s brilliant open-field running, netting him gains of 20. 27 and 32 yards, made him the big running star of the game. RIPON, 0 LAKE FOREST, 14 With the offense still showing no improvement and the defense let- ting down as well. Ripon lost its first game, to Lake Forest by 14-0. both scores the result of Kurt Wuhs long runs of 30 and 65 yards off spinner plays through tackle. These were the only touchdowns opposing elev- ens counted on running plays all year. The Redmen threatened twice, both times as the result of blocked kicks, but a pair of tough breaks, one their own fault, intervened. Once they had the ball on the 1-yard line but a fourth-down fumble deprived them of a score. 7 he gun went off at the half when they were a foot from the goal on second down. A chipped elbow bone sent Harry Mathos. sturdy, black-haired soph- omore back, out for three weeks, and a recurrence of an old ankle injury threatened to deprive Doehling of the invaluable services of Giaudrone. his outstanding ball carrier. The latter ailment fortunately did not put in another appearance. RIPON, 21 BELOIT, 0 It was the subsequent Midwest conference game with Beloit in which Ripon really found itself, in which the Redmen discovered that they had an of- fense as well as a defense. Three times the Redmen crossed the goal line and the Koi.ash final score was 21-0 in their favor. All three touchdowns, incidentally, were the result of so-called breaks. In the first quarter Miller and Radtke blocked one of Runge's punts from behind his goal line and Radtke fell on the ball in the end zone for the first score. Ripon didn't score Smith 10 Buchholz Z NK again until the final period but from here on Beloit never had a chance, barly in the fourth quarter Kolash and Giaudrone lugged the ball to the Beloit 18 but when they could get no further Fallon stepped back and booted a perfect field goal. Not so long after this the ever-alert Redmen recovered a fumble on the Beloit 20. On fourth down Kolash picked a neat hole through the line and lunged across from the 11-yard line to make the score 15-0. Beloit still couldn't get far enough out of its own territory to halt the ever- menacing Redmen. and shortly after Kolash intercepted a pass on the Gold 28. Giaudroneâs pass to Evans put the ball on the 5-yard line and on fourth down Kolash carted it over for the last time. RIPON, 18 LAWRENCE, 14 The highlight of the year (as a matter of fact one of the highlights of Riponâs entire football history) and the game on which the season hinged was a stirring 18-14 triumph over Lawrence in the thirty-third game be- tween these two bitter rivals. Without it Ripon would have been buried deep in both Midwest and Big Four conferences and would have had no better than a .500 rating for the year. But it was not so much that the Redmen won the game as the way they won it. With less than three minutes left, the Vikings were in possession of a 14-12 edge that by all means looked safe. But not to the Redmen as they proved a moment later. Giaudrone took a punt on his own 30-yard line, raced almost to midfield with the ball and then, running into a swarm of Vikings turned around and tossed a perfect lateral pass to Kolash. That was all there was to it. but what a sight it was! The mercury- heeled Kolash negotiated the remaining 60 yards behind superb interfer- ence and crossed the goal untouched for the winning score while pande- monium reigned among 300 or so delirious Ripon fans in the Lawrence Ripon had scored twice in the first half to take a 12-0 lead. Junghans blocked a punt and Smith recovered on the Law- rence 27 to provide the first scoring op- portunity. On the next play Giaudrone hurled a neat pass to Ken Smith who made a sensational catch on the 2-yard line, and then Giaudrone went over for the score. Early in the second quarter Smith went high into the air to knock down Cliff Osen's punt and pursued the ball to the homecoming crowd. Radtke end zone and fell on it for the second score. Brilliant line play by Smith and Evans, ends, Junghans. guard, and Miller and Radtke. tackles, kept the Lawrence running attack well in hand throughout the game, but the Vikes. trailing 12-0. resorted to their vaunted aerial attack in a desperate comeback. Twice the brilliant Cliff Osen, Lawrence end. snared passes in the end zone in the second half, and Lawrence now led 14-12. That was the way it stood until that sen- sational Giaudrone-to-Kolash act won for Ripon. RIPON, 0 CARROLL, 3 Homecoming ended dismally as a fourth quarter field goal by Art Buck. Riponâs pet nemesis, gave Carroll a 3-0 triumph over the Redmen and ruined their hopes for a second successive Wisconsin state college championship. Ripon threatened five times and outgained Carroll throughout but never could muster enough punch to score. Giaudrone. Kolash and Fallon literally ran the Pioneers dizzyâuntil they neared the goal line. Once they were halted when passes to Smith and Evans from the 28-yard line fell incomplete: once when Buck intercepted a pass on the 17 after Giaudrone had put together runs of 14 and 25 yards; once when the Redmen. on the 1-foot line, chose a line smash instead of an end run on fourth down after a furious charge by Giaudrone and Kolash had advanced them that far, and Kolash was stopped cold: again immediately after Buck's kick-out when Fallon and Evans both went up for a pass on the goal line and both missed it: and finally, after Buck had booted a perfect field goal from the 17-yard line to provide the winning points, when three consecutive passes fell incomplete from the 16-yard line. RIPON, 13 LA CROSSE, 0 The season dosed in proper fashion with a 13-0 triumph over La Crosse teachers at La Crosse. Badly out- played in the first half. Ripon came back with an inspired second half charge and scored twice. Giaudrone went over for the first tally after an ir- resistible 73-yard march by Kolash and Giaudrone had placed the ball in posi- tion. and this accounted for the only Braschaud Harness Fallon touchdown Ripon scored nil year on straight football. Then the Red- men returned to their regular offense and closed their scoring for the year in typical season fashion as Stub Hamele, reserve quarterback, inter- cepted a pass in the last two minutes of play and went 30 yards for the score. Giaudrone added the only extra point Ripon made all year. It was the last game for Co-Captains Angelo Giaudrone. halfback, and Lloyd Junghans. guard. Ken Smith, end. and Francis Kolash. half- back. With no fewer than 16 of the 20 Redmen awarded letters returning for next yearâs campaigns, prospects for the 1936 grid season may be definitely ranked as good. There will be a couple of spots providing enough worry to keep Coach Doehling in condition, but. all in all. the outlook is encouraging to say the ieast. If there are to be weak spots they must be confined to the end and half- back positions, where the total of lettermen returning numbers only three. Harry Evans, sturdy sophomore end. and Harry Mathos and Bill Irving, shifty sophomore backs. These three in themselves leave very little to be desired, but they need a bit of help and that is where the worry comes in. With freshman material at these posts definitely limited. Doehling may have to do some shifting in his varsity material to solve the problem. Aside from the wing positions the line should be one of the best in Ripon s history. It will include such veterans as Captain-elect Kurt Radt- ke. Lloyd Miller, and Ralph Branchaud, at tackle: A1 Lampe. Carl Lyle. Les Harness and Ossie Lunde. at guard: and Dick Martini and Eugene Zunk. at center. Backfield veterans, other than Mathos and Irving, will include Art Fallon and Louis Hamele. at quarterback, and George Kreich and Bob Buchholz. at fullback.

Coach Harold Duac's 1935 freshman football team played only one game and lost that 28-6 to St. Johnâs Military Academy, but still showed enough to indicate thereâll be some excellent material for next yearâs var- sity. The yearling activities other than the game against the Cadets were confined to the long and arduous training grind against the varsity eleven. Of the seventeen freshman gridders awarded numerals no fewer than seven are considered hopes for regular jobs next year. They include Andy Rock and Floyd Johnson, ends: Howard Balliett. tackle: Don Stewart, guard: Will Lotzer. quarterback: Roland Horky, fullback: and Earl Gatz- ke. halfback. Other numeral winners included Bob Dalnodar and Bob Van Wie, tackles: Jack Maypole and Bill Blakefield. guards: Herb Eg- gert and Lyle Farrell, centers; and Gordon Gatzke. Ken Hoesly. Waldo Gillian, and Jack Gerrie. backs. Long runs and passes were responsible for the defeat Ripon suffered at the Cadets' hands in its only venture on the gridiron. With the score 12-0 against them as a result of a 27-yard off-tackle slant by Purtell and an 80-yard return of a kick-off by Swirles. Duacâs charges scored their only touchdown of the year as Gordon Gatzke slipped over the goal on a quarterback sneak after a 63-yard march had put the freshmen in position. The yearlings continued to put up a game battle but the soldiersâ spec- tacular play was too much for them. Hall made it 18-6 when he inter- cepted a pass and ran 57 yards. The subsequent point-after-touchdown and an automatic safety made it 21-6 and it all wound up when Flanigan took a 19-yard pass in the end zone and Swirles kicked another extra point late in the final period. Vosse Lewis assisted Duac as coach of the freshman eleven. Ill Coach Donald Martin BASKETBALL Karsted, Mgr., Ponik, Ma-ik, Kreieh. Lyle, Gransec, Fallon.

With the gruelling round-robin Midwest schedule calling for games with every confer- ence team, the Redmen were considered fortunate to wind up as sucessfully as they did. Coach Donald Red Martinâs cagers won five and lost four in the Midwest loop to wind up in fourth posi- tion behind Cornell, the undefeated champion. Knox and Carleton and ahead of Coe. Monmouth. Lawrence and Beloit in that order and outscored their nine opponents. 294 to 268. In the state loop they won four games, de- feating Lawrence and Beloit each twice, and lost two. both of them to Carroll, to take second behind the unde- feated Carroll Pioneers, and scored 192 points to 158 for their foes. They won four out of seven non-conference tilts. Comprehensive totals show the Redmen outscored their opponents 626 to 587. an average of 35 to 32. The Redmen had as much trouble with the weather as they did with opponents. The schedule was fraught with repeated postponements as constant blizzards caused de- lay in the starting date of no less than four games. The Carleton game at Northfield had to be moved ahead a day when the first of the year's many blizzards blew in on the day Ripon was scheduled to leave. Originally scheduled for Feb- ruary 4. the second Beloit game wasn't played until March 3 as heavy snow storms and blockaded roads twice prevented the Redmen from leav- ing town. Finally the Lawrence game here, at first slated to be played off February 26. couldnât be played until two weeks later, on March 1 1. when ice and snow prevented the Vikes from breaking through. Several other games were threatened seriously with postponement, three to be exact, but were played anyway. Martin didn't uncover a winning combination until the Lawrence game at Appleton early in January, and even the quintet he used regu- larly from that tilt on didnât click consistently until late in the season. It had the brilliant co-captains. Earl Christ and Ken Smith, at forward; Kurt Radtke. at center: Myron Marshek. at one guard, and either George Kreich or Hary Mathos at the other. The slightly built Christ had his greatest year, as he piled up 168 points and gave an amazing display of ball-handling, shooting and floor play in game after game. He was as fast as the wind and as effortless, and hurled himself into the play in every game with a sort of reckless fury that made him one of the most feared players in the state and Midwest conferences. Tall, crack-shot Ken Smith, while not quite up to the standard he set last year, played brilliant offensive ball and wound up in second position in individual scoring with Smith Kreich Ma mos 144 points. His re- bound work and one- hand push shot special- ties made him particu- larly dangerous on of- fense. It took most of the year for the powerful Radtke. all six feet-four inches of him. to learn how to use his height to Giaudro.ve the best of advantage but when he did late in the season he became one of Riponâs most consistent offensive threats and was invaluable on tip-offs and rebounds. Marshek, shifty veteran, also had his greatest year and became a weaving, twisting terror on offense to pile up 110 points for third position in team scoring. Kreich and Mathos. a pair of smooth working sophomores, lacked confidence in themselves more than anything else and werenât high scorers because they werenât sure enough of themselves to take any chances on shooting, but showed more than enough to indicate theyâll be regulars next year. Starting slowly the Redmen narrowly averted defeat at the hands of an alumni quintet they were expected to wallop, staving off a last minute rally by the grads to win by only 29-28, and then lost two in a row. to La Crosse. 35-27, on the home floor, and to Loyola university. 49-36. at Chicago. One bright spot in Riponâs play was the brilliant offensive work of Harry Mathos. who held John- ny Watts, the Pedsâ negro flash, to a lone field goal. The latter, however, counted eight free throws wthout a miss, to tie with Ken Smith for high point honors with 10 points. The night following the Loyola reversal. Ripon finally found itself and administered a sound 38-26 drubbing to De Kalb Normal at De Kalb. A well-balanced attack featured Riponâs play, with Radtke and Smith scor- ing nine points. Christ eight. Marshek and Kreich five, and Mathos two. Ripon closed its preliminary engagements with the greatest scoring splurge a Crimson quintet has shown in years. The Redmen walloped the Rhinelander A.A.LI. team at Rhinelander 53-19. with Christ scoring nine baskets for 18 points to lead the onslaught. A crucial early season battle that virtually decided the Big Four title right here brought the Redmen up against Carroll. The Pioneers won. 40-35, as Art Buck, the same lad who beat the Ripon gridders. ran wild to score 17 points. Christ scored 11 points and for all Buckâs splurge and that of Jim Knoblauch, who totaled 10 points, was the outstanding player on the floor. Coach Martin's band of Redmen had to come from behind twice to nose out Lawrenceâs Vikings at Appleton. 25-21. Though held to its lowest point-total of the year, the Ripon machine rose to the occasion by limiting the Vikes to seven field goals and holding their two high scorers. Osen and Burton, to a total of six points. Christâs sensational floor play and nine-point scoring spurt again made him outstanding. One of the yearâs biggest surprises was the 43-18 rout of a completely demoralized Carletonâs home floor advantage was too much for Ripon and the Maize triumphed by a decisive 39- 27 margin to hand the Redmen their first Midwest defeat. Christâs single free throw in this game pre- served his record of scoring in every game for two years. Ken Smith scored twice in the last minute of play to give Ripon a 36-34 triumph over Knox here in one of the best basketball games in history. The last minute came around with Ripon trailing 34-32. but Smith twice popped in shots from under the bas- ket in a sensational finish and the victory was Ri- pon s. Smith and Christ, with 15 and 14 points, re- spectively, starred for Ripon. Overconfidence took its toll in the next game here when the Redmen lost to a Monmouth team they should have beaten. 35-33, and had to overcome a 33-22 disadvantage to get as close as they did. Road-trip Midwest conference games with Cor- nell and Coe were too much for Ripon and the Red- men lost 45-36 to Cornell and 38-32 to Coe. despite brilliant offensive showings by Marshek and Christ. Together they counted 46 points on the trip, Marshek scoring 17 in the Coe game to set the pace, and counting 10 in the Cornell tilt to total 27 for the two games. Christ had 10 against the Purple and 9 against Coe. With their best scoring burst of the season the Redmen routed the Lake Forest squad here in a non-conference tilt, 45-34, with Smith scoring 12 points. Radtke 10. and Christ and Marshek 8. Lake Forest was limited to eight baskets but counted 18 free throws. Expecting a hard battle in spite of perhaps because of their earlier 43-18 triumph, the Redmen enjoyed a surprisingly easy time conquering Beloit for the second time 31-19. Two-game road trip number two proved as disastrous for the Redmen as did the first as Carroll and Lake Forest won 41-27 and 47-42 on suc- cessive nights. The season hit the end of the trail here along with the careers of three brilliant Redmen. Christ. Smith and Marshek with a stirring 31-19 tri- umph over Lawrence. Beloit five. It was the worst beating Ripon had ever handed the Gold. 'The losers could- nât even score until 16 minutes had passed and the Redmen in the meantime piled up a 17- 0 lead. Smithâs 15 points showed the way and only two of the 12 men used failed to score. Jim Brown sophomore Gold forward, did some he- roic work for the losers, scoring 11 points.

Plagued by a first-hall malady that invariably left them trailing by a margin of from two to 15 points at the intermission. Coach Harold Duac's 1936 freshman cagers won only one of five starts, losing twice to St. Johnâs, and once each to Carroll and Lawrence freshmen. They beat the Lawrence yearlings once for their only victory. They got off to a bad start in their opener here against Carroll, trailed 17-4 at the half, and then roared back in the second period only to lose eventually by a three-point 27-24 margin. Louis Dieke rifled in five bas- kets to lead Ripon. Balliett and Johnson counted two apiece. Sleepy first-half play again was the order of the day as the yearlings built up only a 10-5 lead over a singularly helpless Lawrence first-year outfit at Apple- ton. But the mere fact that they were out in front was enough, and they opened up in the second half to pull away to a 25-12 triumph. Balliett and Hoesly scored three baskets apiece, and Dieke added five points. More than a month intervened before their next game but they still hadnât changed their habits. After a helpless first half in which they fell behind 23-6. the yearlings came back with a game rally and lost by a single point, 35-34, after leading 34-32 once. A wholesale carnage of field goals, free throws and personal fouls marked the second game with the Cadets and the final score sounded more like a track meet than a basketball game. It was 64-40 in favor of St. Johns. Ripon trailed by only 34-32 at the haif. The season closed here with a dismal showing against the Lawrence freshmen. Ripon trailed 8-4 at the half, rallied slightly in the second half and lost finally. 15-1 1. Johnson scored six points, and Balliett four. Numeral winners included Ken Hoesly, Earl Gatzke, and Roland Hor- ky. forwards; Floyd Johnson and Andy Rock, centers; and Howard Bal- liet. Louis Dieke.

And it is well that it is that way for Riponâs 1936 track season would have been a most complete failure with team victories as a criterion. The Redmen. handicapped from the very start by the size of their squad, failed to win a dual meet, and placed sixth and fourth, re- spectively in the Midwest and Big Four con- ference meets. But rhe usual run of individ- ual triumphs, some of them upsets others downright startling, made the season more than successful in the eyes of those who knew under what handicaps this mere handful of trackmen was laboring. Lettermen included Claude Pray, captain of the team, who won his three-stripe sweater; Angelo Giaudrone. senior, and George Kreich, soph- omore, who earned white sweaters, emblematic of excellence in three sports; Johnny Pray, Keith Blackwood. Dick Marnocha, and Paul Izdep- ski. sophomores who won their first letters, and Harry Evans, a sopho- more who added a track sweater to the football emblem he won last fall. A review of the season follows: 120 100-YARD DASHâ Early season hopes for a well-balanced sprint section faded as Kolash and Fallon, stars of last year's teams, both ran into one of those off-years trackmen will have, both finally dropping the squad. The entire load in the 100 at least then fell on Keith Blackwood, bespectacled speed mer- chant. and he did an admirable job of upholding that burden, though in his first year as a varsity competitor. Competition was strong in his first two meets against Beloit and Law- rence. but he managed to snare a second on both occasions, finishing be- hind Bob Gates of Beloit in 10.3 seconds and Ted Widler of Lawrence in 10.6 seconds. He topped off the dual meet season with an 11-second triumph over Sweitzer and Morse of Carroll and then proved his right to ranking as one of the outstanding sprinters in this area by copping a tie for fourth in the Midwest conference century event, Pat Herman of Carleton winning against a strong wind in 10.7 seconds, and an outright fourth in the state meet behind Ted Wilder, who won in 10.1 seconds. Morse, and Gates. 220-YARD DASH Blackwood shared duties with Dick Marnocha in the furlong, the for- mer improving as the season progressed while Marnocha shifted his ef- forts more and more to the quarter mile. Marnocha took third behind Gates and Herdman in the opener against Beloit in 23 seconds, and Blackwood third in the Lawrence meet behind Vande Walle and Novakofski, in 23.3 seconds. They both placed in the Carroll meet. Blackwood copping second be- hind Morse, Carroll star, in 23.7 seconds, and Marnocha running third. 440 YARD DASHâ Marnocha. Riponâs only quarter miter, took a pair of thirds in the Beloit and Law- rence dual affairs and then topped off the dual meet slate by storming in first against Carroll in 54.1 seconds. Trailing in fifth place by 10 yards half a lap from the finish in the Big Four meet, he staged a great rally to come home in fourth place as Brown of Beloit won in record breaking time. The Giaudrone sleck-haircd sophomore has the staying qual- ities so necessary for the gruelling quarter mile sprint, and should be due for big things next season. HALF MILEâ With not a half miler on the roster. Ri- pon conceded nine points to every team it met in this event. MILEâ Beloit. Lawrence, and Carroll all boasted a fine array of milers but Irvin Zarling. slim Ripon sophomore, managed to grab thirds in all three dual meets behind Bredesen and Fellows. Beloit: Grode and Sheldon. Lawrence: and Goebel and Heimke. Carroll. TWO MILEâ Claude Pray, blond track captain, climaxed his career by winning the Midwest conference two-mile event, bearing Ross of Beloit in a spectac- ular race in 10 minutes 22.2 seconds. He had been beaten in dual meets not only by Ross, but also by Schubert of Lawrence, who had to give up in the Midwest event, and Heimke of Carroll, but couldnât be beaten that day. Heimke beat him again in the Big Four meet but Pray had run his race the week bfore. Pray again gave a great demonstration of stamina, and pulled in a good second ahead of Ross and Sheldon of Lawrence. HIGH JUMPâ It isn't often that a miler can be transformed into a high jumper and it is even less often that such a transformation could make one of the best college high jumpers in four states out of the subject. But that is Johnny Pray s story this year. Sam Leete was the only man in tin state circuit who could beat him. He tied for first at 5 feet 7 inches with Gibson of Beloit in his first dual meet, cleared 6 feet % inch in the Lawrence meet but placed second to Leete who went 6 feet I inch, and tied for first with teammate Kurt Radtke in the Carroll dual meet at 5 feet 6 inches. Both Leete and Pray reached their peaks in the Midwest meet, Leete winning with a record breaking leap of 6 feet 21 inches and Johnny tying for third with a leap of 6 feet and both then suffered a let-down in the state meet. Leete winning but failing to break the record, and Pray tying for second. Radtke took thirds in the Beloit and Lawrence meets besides his tie for first in the Carroll meet, once clearing 5 feet 10 inches. BROAD JUMPâ Out for track again after an absence of a year because of an injured leg. Angelo Giaudrone was Ripon's only broad jumper. He took a sec- ond behind Runge of Beloit, a third behind Vande Walle and Wilder of Lawrence and a second behind Gimla of Carroll in dual meets. Gel reached his seasonâs peak in the Big Four meet, last collegiate athletic event for the tough little three-sport star, when Ted Wilder's final leap beat him out of first place by a 2-inch margin. Wilder went 20 feet 84 inches, and Giaudrone 20 feet 6.j inches. POLE VAULTâ Athletes are born, not made, they say. Blackwood but Johnny Gorn doesnât believe it. Though far from being a natural athlete Gorn tried desperately hard throughout the season to make himself one. but ran into better and better competition as he went along and didnât get much reward for his efforts. After taking first in the Beloit meet with a mediocre leap of 9 feet. Gorn took third be- hind the Lawrence stars. Osen and Solie, and then a tie for third in the Carroll meet. Jerry Barnes winning with a vault of 1 1 feet. He tailed to place in the big Midwest meet, but came in tor a tie for fourth in the state meet which Barnes won at 1 1 feet 9 inches. Shotput. discus and javelin responsibilities fell mainly on a trio of sturdy sophomores. George Kreich. Harry Evans and Paul Izdepski. and the three of them showed enough this year to indicate theyâll be main- stays of the track team in the two years ot competition they have left. The javelin proved to be Riponâs strongest event. Kreich. Evans, and Giaudrone scored 22 out of a possible 27 points in three dual meets and copped first place every time. They slammed the event at Beloit. Kreich winning. Evans taking second, and Giaudrone third. Giaudrone won it at Lawrence with a throw of 149 feet 8 inches, followed by Fritz and Burton, both of Lawrence. Then Kreich uncorked the best heave ot the season in the state to win in the Carroll meet. He threw the spear 169 feet 7f inches. Evans took second wth over 166 feet. A slump fol- lowed this great showing and Evansâ third place in the Midwest meet was the best any of the trio could do in the championship race. Competition was strong in the shotput and discus and Riponâs soph- omores didnât fare as well in these events. Izdepski tied with Ralph Branchaud, also of Ripon. in the shot behind Pete Barksdale. Beloit, while Evans was taking a second in the discus, also behind the Beloit sopho- more star. Kreich won the shotput from Schier and Kapp of Lawrence with a throw of 38 feet 1 j inches and Evans pulled an upset in winning the dis- cus from Kapp with a throw of 1 16 feet. Kreich placing third. Kreich picked up a second in the shot and a third in the discus besides the first he scored in the javelin against Carroll and Izdepski counted a third in the shot. Izdepski surprised everybody by taking third place in the state meet behind Barksdale and Hilliard of Beloit, thus winning his letter. HALF MILE RELAY A relay team which was to have been one of the stateâs outstanding quartets with such sprinters as Kolash. Fallon. Blackwood and Marnocha toting the baton, became little more than a dream as the former pair dropped the squad. Johnny Pray took over the lap that Kolash left vacant and the team did manage to snare one victory over Car- roll. before the other veteran. Fallon, pulled up stakes. After that Ripon didn't even have a relay team and was not represented in the state meet relay which Lawrence won. HIGH AND LOW HURDLES Johnny Pray ran into a champion hurdler every time he went out. until the Carroll meet, but was good enough to place second behind them all and finally win both events in the Carroll meet. Nate Runge. stocky. Evans 123 red-haired Beloit star, and Sam Leete. bril- liant Lawrence sophomore beat him in both highs and lows, but Pray came back in the closing dual meet to beat Beggs and Buck of Carroll in the highs in 17.5 seconds, and Gimla and Beggs in the lows in 27.3 seconds. He finished fourth in the lows in the Big Four meet. Johnny Pray was high scorer for the sea- son by a wide margin. In his three events he piled up 39j points on five firsts, six sec- onds, a third and a fourth. Kreich scored 20 in three events for second honors. Blackwood 17| in two events for third, and Claude Pray. 17 in a single event for fourth. Evans and Giau- drone tallied 16 points apiece and Marnocha 11ÂŁ. Five of these men- Johnny Pray. Kreich. Blackwood. Evans, and Marnochaâ will be back on the cinder paths next years besides Johnny Gorn. Paul Izdepski. Kurt Radtke, and several promising freshmen. But even their presence wonât be enough to insure a return to the halcyon days Ripon once knew on the track. They can be a start, of course, and a good start at that, but there must be something else more fundamental, something that will insure a permanent return to those apparently by-gone days. And that is a revived spirit that will put track and field competi- tion on the same level with football and basketball, that in itself will re- move certain difficulties connected with spring fever, lack of interest and lack of reward. Instill a new spirit and you wonât have to depend on a mere letter award to call out potential trackmen. Revive interest and you'll have trackmen coming out purely for the love of the sport as foot- ball and basketball men do now. When those days come, and everybody's hoping they aren't far away, Ripon track fans can start counting on team victories as well as individ- ual triumphs. And once you get a winner in any sport your worries over attendance, finances and interest itself will be at an end. Once you start recording victories, fans will begin to realize again that track and field as a sport is just as thrill-provoking as football or basketball ever was. Bob Rashid, who tried hard to win a letter as a miler and half miler in his sophomore and junior years but never was able to amass enough points to earn it. received his major R sweater as manager of the track team this year. Coach Doehling commended the hard-working, curly- haired editor of the College Days as the finest track manager he has had.

Du Vlcz, Kolb, Sharpe, Miller, Rashid, Mgr, First RowâJones, Killings, l.otzer, Scarl, Lehmann The freshman track season differed but little from the varsity's. The yearlings failed to win a dual meet and placed relatively low in the Mid- west conference freshman meet. However, individual performances were so promising in several events that Coach Doehling's hopes are on the rise for next year. With hardly the man power to expect a dual meet victory. Ripon's yearlings were routed by both St. Johns and the Lawrence freshmen. They scored 9 points in the Midwest meet to finish seventh. Ripon counted six first places against Lawrence. Johnson winning the â 440 and the high jump. Sharpe the half mile. Searle the two mile. Horky the javelin, and Butzin the pole vault, but Ripon couldn't score enough seconds and thirds to approach the Vikes. Rock and Butzin took the only first places against St. John's. Rock winning the javelin with an excel- lent throw of 151 feet, and Butzin tying for first in the pole vault. Searle took a pair of second places in the Midwest meet, in the mile and two mile, to accounr for six of Riponâs nine-point total. Butzin copped third in the pole vault, and Kolb took fourth in the 100 yard dash to com- plete Ripon's scoring. More than a few of the small squad will be outstanding hopes for var- sity jobs next year. These include: Rollie Kolb in the 100 and 220: Floyd Johnson in the 440: Howard Searle in the mile and two mile: Eddie Krause in the low hurdles: Freddie Butzin in the pole vault; and Roland Horky and Andy Rock in the javelin. 125 CHEER- LEADERS l.rfl to rightâShirley, McDonald, Grassy Athletics at Ripon have paid their usual regrets to the fine halfbacks, forwards, and dashmen that this year are being graduated. Irreparable losses, sighs the fan. all the while knowing that many more are left and that there will come many others to take the places of those who are going. Yet there, is another team, a team he knows very little about and seems to appreciate less, that is leaving in its entirety. Three tried campaign- ers of a thousand dark momentsâcheerleaders of Ripon College. Frank Grassy, David Shirley and Dorothy McDonaldâhave quietly packed their flannels and sweaters and are ready to depart. Theyâve served their school four years. Each now wears the college R sweater, and is a member of the college R club, but beyond that little in appreciation has come their way for the hours spent in the rain and the snow, with the cold wind biting through those thin white trousers and still thinner sweaters. Together they came to Ripon. and now together they go from it. Be- hind them they leave only an old battered horn, and a job well done. TENNIS Cold weather late startâmuddy courtsâdusty courtsâno practice-â that has always been the story of Ripon's tennis season and it was the same old story this year. The result was that Ripon's netters won only one match in four, and tying another. Members of the squad were Cuthbert Vandervelde. captain. Jim Mas- ik. Carl Lyle. Eugene Zunk and A1 Lampe. GOLF Without a line of advance publicity. Riponâs 1936 golf team went out and won both Midwest and Big Four conference titles and a pair of dual matches besides. Members of this championship foursome were Lynn Fargo. Ivan Uttech. Walden Wright, and Lawrence Briske. Organized on the spur of the moment, this quartet played a pair of warm up matches, easily beating Lawrence at the Butte des Morts Coun- try Club at Appleton, and Carroll at the Tuscumbia course near Green Lake, and then proved its real class by winning the Midwest champion- ship trophy in a 36-hole match at Tuscumbia. Ripon turned in low med- al scores of 653. nosing out Carleton, which had a total of 657. and Knox, which had 666. for the title. Uttech and Fargo took third and fourth positions, respectively, in individual scoring with totals of 155 and 158. Ripon walked off with the Big Four championship matches played at the Butte des Morts course. 126 OlAUDRON'E Bv CLUB Top Ron.'âJ. Pray, Mainclc, Shebeck, Simpson, Grassy, Rashid, C. Pray.

Any student can qualify for this organization if he has earned his letter in either basketball, football, or track. At the present time there are 27 members in the club, showing rapid growth since the original formation of organized sports. The leaders of the club for 1935-36 were. President. Angelo Giaudrone: vice president, Lloyd Jung- hans: secretary. Francis Kolash: treasurer, Francis Kolash. The R Club aims to give personal consideration to its members in regard to any problems which might arise. At the meetings of the group, the field of college athletics forms the discussion. There is also an at- tempt to improve general situations in regard to college sports. The entire activities of Homecoming are sponsored by the âR club. This includes organization of the houses to welcome all alumni, public entertainment for alumni and sponsor arrangements for the football game, and the annual R Club dance as a climax of the day's events held in the college gym. Linder the presidency of Angelo Giaudrone the club has achieved marked distinction in campus affairs as well as providing worthwhile aid to its members. 127 INTRA' MURALS Lewis The standings of the houses: T.

Varsity men may not com- pete in football, basketball, tennis or track and freshman varsity candi- dates may not compete in football or basketball. This affords every stu- dent a fair chance. A student may participate in as many intramural sports as he wishes. Freshmen and sophomores must participate in intra- mural sports as a part of their credit in the R.O.T.C. department. How- ever, a compulsion is not necessary to make the men participate. With such an extensive program, every man in school can find at least one sport in which he can excell. At Ripon the intramural sports are more than mere inter-house sports. The play is organized and a supervisor is appointed for each sport. The houses each in turn have an intramural manager and an assistant. The heads of the various sports were: touch-football. Dale Osterling. Merri- man: squash paddle tennis and handball. James Masik. Duffie: volley- ball: Vosse Lewis. Woodside, and Alerd Lampe. Sanford; basketball. Vosse Lewis. Woodside; rifle. Charles Lloyd. Sanford: kittenball. Vosse Lewis, Woodside; baseball. Orvil Gransee, League. Angelo Giaudrone. Sanford; tennis. Alerd Lampe. Sanford: track. Coach Donald Martin. The intramural managers of each house follow: Merriman. Cuthbert Vandevelde; Sanford. Mike Gavin; West. Bob Dalnodar; Duffie, James Masik: Woodside. Vosse Lewis: Smith. George Sheldon; and Tracy, Irv- ing Zarling. The house winner of each sport is given a handsome trophy symbolic of its victory. An elaborate system of scoring is used to determine the intramural winner for the year: 40 points are given for first, 28 for sec- ond. 24 for third. 20 for fourth. 16 for fifth. 12 for sixth, and 8 for seventh. The winner for the year on this point basis, receives a large trophy for its permanent possession. The trophies alone are incentive to greater activ- ity in the creating of house teams. Many of the houses have an intra- mural system all their own having a head intramural manager and then individual heads for each sport. In this way interest is built up in each sport. As the program is run off so that one sport does not conflict with another, it is possible for a house to get ample support for every phase of the program. 128 SHF. 1.1)0 N' This then is Ripon's substitute for a physical edu- cation course. Although it is not as effective as a phy-ed course in many ways, the Ripon intramural program supplies what would otherwise be lacking and in the meantime supplies it in a non-compulsory way and a way in which everyone participates. TOUCH FOOTBALL The 1935-36 intramural program opened with touch football. The schedule was marred by numer- ous ties. There were, likewise, few instances where one team swamped another. The race immediately settled down to a two-team affair between Merri- man and Sanford. In the crucial contest and the last game of the year. Merriman and Sanford played a scoreless tie. This resulted in the championship for Merriman. for although both teams were undefeated Sanford had tied one more than Merriman. Thus Merriman finished with five victories and two ties. Sanford with four victories and three ties. Behind these two teams came West. Tracy. Smith. Woodside. League, and Duffie in the order named. The schedule brought forth many individual stars from each house. The all-school team was as follows: LE. Gavin (Sa); LT. Vandervelde (M); C. Grassy (Sa); RT. Black- wood (We): RE. Marshek (Wo): QB. Fargo (Sm); HB. Christ (We); HB. Osterling (M): FB. Zarling (T). VOLLEYBALL Volleyball followed touch-football on the program. West Hall after losing early in the schedule to Woodside. in the biggest upset of the race, went on to defeat all comers and tie Merriman for first place with six wins and one loss. Sanford, last year's co-champions with West, led for a good share of the race only to lose to both West and Merriman. The volleyball race brought out more than a mere batting the ball around. Each team developed crack spikers and âset-up men. Some of the outstanding spikers were Wright and Christ of West: Marshek. Woodside. Vandervelde and Krebs. Merriman: Kreich. Smith: Johnson. Sanford, and Smith. Tracy. Good setup men were hard to find but Hamele and Lampe. Sanford: Murray. Merriman: Lotzer. Woodside: Grant. Duffie: Lepper. Smith: and Eggert. West, were real finds.' RIFLE Intramural rifle started on Dec. 1. Smith Hall with a fine array of marksmen finally captured the trophy with a margin of 45 points over Sanford. Merriman. Tracy. West. Woodside. League and Duffie in the order named! The members of Smith's winning team and their totals were Morris Blodgett. 176: Lawrence Briske. 170: Orrin Parks. 167: D. West. 166: and Alan Simms. 159. V. ndkrvki.dk Gavin Christ Smith BASKETBALL Basketball was perhaps the most popular sport on the program. The race was all Merriman and San- ford. In the final game of the season Sanford, very largely through the defensive play of Lloyd Miller in holding Harry Evans of Merriman to one field goal, triumphed over Merriman. 16-10. Sanford's winning team was made up of Pray and Buchholz. forwards; Miller, center; Gavin and H mele. guards. BOXING AND WRESTLING This year's contests showed a new revival of spirit in a sport which seemed at ebb tide in inter- est last year. Good attendance marked both the preliminary bouts and the finals. There were five weight classes in both wrestling and boxing. They were: heavyweight. 170, 160. 145, 130-lb. classes. 7'he finals brought upsets. Horky furnished excitement by scoring a technical knockout over Paul Izdepski. the Duffie behemoth. Don Stewart surprised fans with a decisive victory over Lotzer in the 160- pound boxing finals. Elliott Brown, last yearâs 130-pound champion, lost his title to Thrasher of Smith. Butzin, Smith, won over Marnocha. West, and Pray. Sanford, over Johnson, Sanford, in the other matches. In the wrestling finals Izdepski came back to pin A! Lampe, Sanford, in the heavyweight division. Fid Evans, Merriman. won over Grant. Duffie. in the 145-pound class. Vandevelde retained his 160-pound title with a victory over Lotzer. Brown retained his wrestling title by reversing the boxing decision on Thrasher. Jack Gerrie, Smith, won the light-heavy- weight title from Charley Lloyd, Sanford, in the roughest bout of the even- ing. Smith Hall with four individual champions won the boxing title with Merriman second. HANDBALL, SQUASH AND PADDLE TENNIS A large part of the winter season was taken up by the playing of bandball. squash paddle tennis, and paddle tennis. The finals found Sanford tied for first with Merriman each having 10 wins and a loss. Tom- my Monroe. Cuthbert Vandervelde, John Pray and Ken Smith were the outstanding singles players. In doubles Gavin and Pray. Sanford, were far and away the best although they only played two matches. KITTENBALL The spring of the year opened with kittenball. always a very popular sport. Woodside won a handsdown victory taking all six of its games. Smith Hall finished close behind losing only to Woodside. Woodside s championship team included Lotzer. Mathos. Rock. Lew- is. Marshek. Brown. Martin. Schlei and Ponik. With two weeks of school left tennis and baseball are now being played with track scheduled. Shereck 130 Fischer WOMEN'S SPORTS CLUB President Vice President Treasurer Secretary OFFICERS Dorothy Fischer Margaret Soberg Dona Ida Brown Irene Grota The Womenâs Sports Club has played a leading role in campus affairs this year. On March 14. the club sponsored a Women s Play Day Tour- ney for high schools. Participants of the pow wow were Plymouth. Co- lumbus. Sheboygan. Oshkosh. Beaver Dam. Waupun and Ripon High Schools. Six squads with eight on each squad, represented the schools in competitive games in the college gymnasium. A banquet was held at the Commons at noon followed by awards and prizes for winning groups. The afternoon was devoted to âget acquainted chats and visits to vari- ous parts of the campus. Various sports are offered for competition during the school year. The purpose of the club is to cultivate an interest in sports for women and to create friendly competition between sororities. Through monthly meetings, hikes, and general athletic games, this ideal has been accom- plished. Each year a junior or senior is elected president of the group. The heads of sports and the president constitute the board of control. Miss Ruby Greiling. instructor of womenâs physical education, is an adviser to the club. She has done much to vary the general activities and gain a widespread membership. The system of awards for proficiency is based on a minimum of 12 points to be won by each individual. The highest rated women in each sport receives an âR letter. No. 1 in each sport receives 3 points: No. 2 receives 4; No. 3. 3; No. 4. 2: No. 5. 1 point. In the following year, if the same girls win a maximum of 15 points, they receive a white âRâ letter. Each girl winning her 5 points in a particular sport automatically becomes the head of that sport for the next year. This honor also car- ries with it the reward of a white R letter. ARCHERYâAlice Amundsen This sport was played off in the spring. Starting when the snow left the ground in April, interest in this sport lasted right through until the end of school. Practice was given in tournament work, round robin- schedules, and singly. Girls outstanding in this sport were Esther Cheatle. Betty Ruth Oliver, Alice Amundsen. Byrd Ihland. Beth Hoveland, and Ann Mitchell. BASEBALLâRamona Winkler This was another spring sport and was run off the same time as the archery contest, from the middle of April to the end of school. As a preliminary to the regular tournament, a number of practice games were played. Plans were drawn up to bring the womenâs baseball club over from the high school for a game wtih the college group. Those taking the lead in this sport are: Ramona Winkler. Arlouine Russell. Donalda Brown. Mary Schick. Clare Klein, and Mildred Welch. TENNISâHead, Marybelle Mapps This sport was run off in the late spring. Although it may be classed as a late sport, some hardy individuals were on the court a few days after the last snow had vacated it. The turn-out for tennis was very goodâsome thirty women reporting for it. A back door singles tournament was held the latter part of May to determine the women's singles champion of the school. Among the outstanding players this year have been Donalda Brown. Mary jones. Alice Amundsen. Ramona Winkler, and Marion Kraus. BOWLINGâHead, Juliana Brown This sport was one of the winter indoor sports. The matches were played down at the local bowling alleys under the City Lunch Restau- rant. The alleys were kept open for the Sports Club Thursday after- noons. from 3:20 to 5:30 p. m. Matches began in January, immediately after the opening of the winter term, and continued into the first week of April. The turn-out this year was a great improvement over the turn- out of last year. In the conduct of the sport four captains were selected, who headed four respective bowling teams. In the course of the season really skillful bowlers were developed, among them were Juliana Brown. Betty Fessenden. Velma Bartlett, and Margaret Soberg. BASKETBALLâHead, Annette Kcwley This was a winter indoor sport which ran continually from the first of January on through March. The turn-out was as large as it has ever been, inasmuch as pre-season interest in this sport was high. An inter- sorority competitive tournament was held during the season, which was won by the Bartlett team, with the Parkhurst team second, the Lyle team, third, and the Harwood team, fourh. The members of the champoln Bartlett team were: Donalda Brown, its captain. Leone Wilson. Irene Grota. Mary Jones, Betty Fessenden, and Regula Karsted. Games were also played between two teams from the college and two teams from the Ripon High School. The games were played in the high school auditorium and were won in both cases by the college team. Mem- bers of the college teams were as follows: Donalda Brown. Leone Wilson. Spoil lli nils, .lullfry. liasfball Hasketball 132 Annette Kewley, Irene Grota. Arlouine Rus- sell. Betty Fessenden. Lois Lynch, Clare Klein. Mary Jones. Regula Karsted. Marion Kraus, Mary Schiek, and Mildred Welch. Outstanding players developed by the season were Mary Jones, Mary Schiek, Don- alda Brown. Leone Wilson, Marion Kraus, Clare Klein. Mildred Welch, and Annette Kewley. RIFLEâHead, Lois Taylor, Assisted by Mary Johnson This sport is the only one that has inter- scholastic competition. Telegraphic meets are fired with women's teams from a num- ber of the largest schools of the country. This year the team broke a little better than even in the percentage of matches won and lost. Sergeant Arthur Peters coached the group. The results of the season: Ripon. 489: North Dakota Agricultural College, 479. Ripon, 493: University of Vermont. 500. Ripon, 493: Kansas State College, 488.

Started early in October it was continued right through until December. Games were played on Monday afternoons at 4:20. with competition between classes. Among the outstanding players were Mary Schiek. Marion Kraus, and Ramona Winkler. VOLLEYBALLâHead, Dorothy Griffiths Volleyball was played in November and December in the gymnasi- um Monday nights from 7 until 9 p. m. In addition to the regular class competition sorority teams were formed. The team from Lyle Hall took first place with an undefeated record. Bartlett Hall was second, with Harwood third and Parkhurst fourth, respectively. Several outside games were played. In the first of these the championship Lyle team was defeat- ed by an intramural team from Sanford, two sets to one. Two series of games were also played with the women s sports club of Ripon High School, in which the high school won those games played at the high school, and the college teams won here in the return games. The outstanding volleyball players of the year were Mabel Pells, Donalda Brown. Marion Kraus. MISCELLANEOUSâHead, Cordelia Wcrnecke Under this group of sports hiking was the main activity. A number of breakfast hikes were scheduled for the club, but the hiking on the whole was done in small individual groups, and on the participantsâ own initia- tive. Horseshoes, jacks and jump rope were other activities in this group.

Hansen, Hinz, Zodtner First RowâGrot a, Winkler, Fischer, Sober , Kline, Mitchell, Pares OFFICERS President Margaret Soberg Secretary Dorothy Fischer Under the direction of Dr. Grace Goodrich, the Intersorority Council meets to decide inter-house rules. Its original aim involved the judicious construction of regulations regarding sorority rushing and pledging. If difficulties arise, the group meets to form new rules or investigate any sit- uation. The Intersorority Council is composed of the president, rushing chair- man, and social chairman of each sorority on the Ripon College campus. It has other functions in addition to pledging guidance, such as governing activities between houses and providing suggestions for entertainment, gives students a feeling of the responsibility of self- government. During the fall quarter, this group is especially active, when new students are initiated into campus routine. Election of new officers is usually undertaken toward the close of the school year. The council of twelve might be regarded as a fine example of student judiciary work. Each sorority has equal representation and feels that the house members are a portion of her responsibility. The result is a more uniform and friendly sorority grouping. 14+ Grant DUFFIE HOUSE Top RowâHlakdielci, Izdepski, Sharpe Second RowâLehman, Jcnks, Kolh, Schneider First RowâE {'eland, Lousier, Grant, Shcbcck, Sizer MEMBERS 19 Baird Williams 19 William Bruhy William Grant 19 James Masik 19 William Blakefielct Charles bgeiand Roland Kolb LeRoy Lousier Harold Shebeck Paul Izdepski Walter Lehman Ronald Schneider 36 37 Woodrow Sizer 38 39 Harvey Sharp Merle Jenks President Vice President T reasurer Historian Social Chairman Proctor Chi OFFICERS William Grant Harold Shebeck LeRoy Lousier Woodrow Sizer James Masik - Paul Izdepski O Omega Sigma Chi pledged six freshmen at a meeting held at Hotel Leroy on Oct. 5.

This group works under the supervision of Dean ]. Clark Gra- ham. The presidents of every sorority and fraternity on Ripon College campus, together with the all-school president and editor of the College Days, compose the council. Their entire program operates under consti- tutional rules drawn up by the group. Every two weeks, a meeting is conducted, usually on Tuesday evening at 6:45. Round-table discussions ensue under a directing chairman with the faculty adviser attending. All inter-house activities are subject to the approval of the council. This year an entirely new group of rules for Hell Week were voted upon and adopted. The object was the elimination of freshman hazing. Dates for the quarterly sorority and fraternity parties are decided upon by the Student Council. This year a system of party date rotation was inaugurated. The councilor administration for 1935-36 was headed by Thomas Bunsa, Phi Kappa Pi, general chairman; Robert Rashid, Theta Sigma Tau. as editor of the College Days, and Frank Grassy, Theta Sigma Tau. all- school president. The other house presidents are as follows: William Grant. Omega Sigma Chi; Thomas Bunsa, Phi Kappa Pi; Frank Grassy, Theta Sigma Tau; Ford Hicks. Delta Sigma Psi; Kenneth Smith. Lambda Delta Alpha; Earl Christ, Alpha Phi Omega; Vosse Lewis, Alpha Omega Alpha; Doro- thy Fischer. Kappa Sigma Chi: Margaret Husting.

Clark Graham In that difficult and delicate position of reconciliation between careless and impulsive adolescence, and sensitive, staid maturity stands Dean J. Clark Graham, who has served Ripon College in the capacity of Dean of the College for 12 years. Official when necessary, confidential when needed. Dean Gra- ham has always seen the deeper reaches of every problem put before him. The freshman as he âfeelsâ Ripon for the first time, the senior who bids good-bye. both look to Dean Graham for guidance. On his contribution to Ripon College may be written largeâ he understood. Dean Grace G. Goodrich Dr. Grace G. Goodrich has been a loving and a loved Friend of all Ripon students for more than 23 years. On picnics, in the classroom, officially and unofficially, her manner is always the same, quiet and kindly, giving always more than she is given. She has saved many people many things and brought harmony in many a disturbed moment by her gentle way of saying: Well, now. let me seeâI think we can.â Dr. Goodrich is such a friend as one meets with few times in life, and memory of her is a treasure. 164 NYA AT RIPON DOEHI.IN'G The NYA was designed to replace the FERA work of last year. This organization applies to other institutions as well as to colleges. A sum of $5,130 is allotted to Ripon College. Twelve per cent of the student body, or thirty-eight students per month, receive an average salary of $15. The jobs are given out on a basis of need to students who would be unable to attend otherwise. The work assigned students is that which the individual is capable of doing. It is work of social benefit both to himself and to the community. General work such as: tutoring, filing, promotion of safety, teaching of small children, investigators on relief projects. Red Cross work, commu- nity setters, research work, codifying city ordinances, research work in Helds of science, is the type of work expected by the government. At Ripon College the following projects are included in the NYA work: Filing work in city and public library. Laboratory work in biology. Laboratory assistants in chemistry. Armourer in R.O.T.C.âcharge of rifle range. Recreation work with public school children. Girl Scout guidance. General campus workâbeautifying of the grounds. 1âyping and general orifice work. Alumni records office. Mimeograph department. College infirmary help. Investigation work determining number and ages of unemployed youth in Ripon. 1'utoring of backward students. Management of Little Theater. In most cases this work has proved to be of great help to the students. The entering freshman having had little experience must be guided and overseen in all they do. Many of the jobs open a field with a future for the students, benefiting them both now and for later life. If the present political conditions remain the same, NYA work will probably continue into the next year. RIPON RECRUITING IIhndkrsov The recruiting service of Ripon College is sponsored by three mem- bers ol the faculty. Dean J. Clark Graham. Mr. Chamberlain, and Mr. Henderson. Through this change in leadership, the problem of organi- zation became far more simplified. Present day colleges are faced with the problem of selling to high school graduates the idea of a particular college to attend. The main difficulty centers on the fact that every high school student has an opportunity to be visited by different college representatives, finally making a decision on one particular school. Ripon College aims to obtain only the best in student life to improve her standard. A group of wholesome, congenial students build a foun- dation of culture for any school. It is the personal contact of able men that wins a student's interest. Attractions of Ripon College are many, but it is the good field work that really counts. There must first be contacts with high school super- intendents and principals, and this is of vital importance. Alumni, indi- vidually and in groups, give their stimulating influence in acquiring stu- dent interest. Friendly high school officials save a college representative much effort when they direct him to the likely candidates within the Much depends on novelty, variety, a new and vital appeal furnished through catalogs and all types of bulletins. Ripon aims at cleverly de- signed pamphlets with cuts and student experiences that are new and real. Certainly we have attractions that will appeal if we but display them in an arresting manner. A Friendship Week-end is an annual college affair. High school students are invited to share in college 1 fie. They are entertained with games, plays, teas, dinners and a dance. Through such intimate contact, social and scholastic life are both displayed. Surely in such an event, any prospect receives the value of an inside look' into campus life. The better high school student will be arrested by the opportunity of competitive examinations in hope of winning a scholarship. This is a more dignified and distinctive type of recruiting that has proven well worthwhile. At the same time, the period of examination offers interested individuals a view of our intimate college. Then. too. Ripon offers other scholarships to worthy individuals, such as those initiated by the Ameri- can Legion. For a small college. Ripon gives valuable student aid. Positions in various departments are given to students of ability. Wherever possible, there is assistance through N.Y.A. work, and rcommendations to employ- ers within the city. Ripon aims at the best, and through service of this kind, we have won a high standard among American colleges. school. FRIENDSHIP 166 WEEK-END Chamberlain' The 1936 Friendship Day was held on Saturday. May 16. when 100 high school students from 24 towns, came to Ripon as guests of the col- lege. We were fortunate in having the finest weather that we have had for any Friendship Day for the last several years, which added much to the enjoyment of the occasion. Our high school guests arrived in Ripon late Saturday morning and were entertained for lunch at the Commons. At 1:30 most of them attended the Midwest College Track Meet which was a decidedly colorful spectacle, featured by the record breaking in several events. Dinner was served at the Commons and at 7:30 the Dramaturgy class gave three interesting one-act plays in the Little Thea- ter. Later in the evening a dance was held in the gymnasium, the music being furnished by the newly organized Campus orchestra. A larger share of the program this year was assumed by the Student Council which made many valuable suggestions and also had charge of issuing invitations. It is to be hoped that in the future the houses will take an even larger part in the plans for the entertainment of high school graduates, as it is felt that they can render a great service to the college and to their individual houses.

C.A. organization. The Women's Self-Government Association is composed of all women in Ripon College. There is a W.S.G.A. Cabinet as a central body, with four councils: Intersorority Council. Financial Council. Social Council, and Study Council. The W.S.G.A. Cabinet is composed of three delegates (the president and two appointed members, at least one of the two appointed members is to serve for two successive years) of each sorority, and one representative of the league women, to be chosen by the Dean of Women. The Dean of Women acts as adviser for the group. The function of the W.S.G.A. Cabinet is to make all rules pertaining to womenâs privi- leges on the campus. The W.S.G.A. sponsored Silver Jubilee Day. March 3. 1936. in honor of President and Mrs. Silas Evans. The day was the faculty-student contribution to the nation-wide Ripon alumni movement to raise $25,000 to add to the Ripon College treasury. The Y.W.C.A. officers of 1934- 35 sponsored the annual Walk-Around. and the Big and Little Sister Tea. activities which are now included in the activities of the W.S.G.A. Social Council.

Story beginning in 1892 with a dust-covered picture in a heavy wooden frame, and going on and on down through the years, and over the surface of two wide walls. Workshop of the college But besides the rhythm of the hammer and the whine of the saw comes gossip, a manâs kind of gossip. Gossip about the coming footbcill game, about the last basketball victory, about the season's track possibilities, about the big blizzard, about campus news, about fishing, about any news, or new thingsâthat's a man's gossip! Herman. Walter. Leo. Adolph. Men of maintenance, men of graying hair, men of many campus winters and summers, men who swap stories with professors who sit on saw horses while killing a few of a day's minutes with a man's kind of talk, with stories beginning. I remem- ber whenâ But the best fellow for that wasâââ The minutes of a dull day are endlessâand as endless as their flow come these heroes that have been. The talk, though subdued for a mo- ment, perhaps, by the rhythm of the hammer or the whine of the saw. is never stilled: but goes on foreverâdown there where rusting rhumb tacks hold fast to the walls the pages of the pastâRipon's past. 170 INFIRMARY Dr. Bailie:. Ruth Bristol The infirmary, although not having an epidemic such as last year's to light, has been kept quite busy with five cases of mumps in addition to the customary sore throats and winter colds. During athletic seasons the infirmary cares for the injured athletes, and doctors all the other minor injuries occurring on the campus. The ground floor of Bartlett has been given over to the rooms of the infirmary, consisting of two rooms for men, one for women, and an office for the doctor and nurses. The girls' room was furnished by the faculty women in memory of Mrs. Robb Woodmansee. and the R club helped to equip one of the men's rooms. Dr. Edgar C. Barnes. Miss Annette Kewley, and Miss Marie Alberts make up a very efficient staff, willing to help and give their time and aid at all times. The infirmary is a part of the newly created Depart- ment of Health and Physical Education. It was started in the fall of 1934. and it is under the supervision of Carl H. Doehling.
