President Evans • There is no better way to prove Ri- pon's claim of being an “intimate college than a trip to President Evans' office. From this unpretentious spot. Prexy, the symbol of all the college attempts to stand for. directs the affairs of the school with a completeness of understanding that is astonishing to the visitor. Administrative affairs, speaking en- gagements. and innumerable other matters keep the president busy from dawn to dayfall. Yet no student with personal troubles has ever been turned away. “See Prexy about it has become an axiom on the campus . . . and Dr. Evans has never failed to uphold the truth. Kipling's lines about mingling with kings and commons on equal bases apply here. Entirely sincere, hating hypocrisy. Prexy makes no effort to put up a front. It is his force of personality, the man him- self. that makes an impression not soon effaced. The college is entering a prosperous period. Physically, it has grown by bounds in the last two years. That it will continue to expand morally and intellectu- ally may be accepted as fact. For Ripon is fortunate in having one of the few men who put first things first at its helm. The future can bring no problems Dr. Evans cannot solve. Iwffar Deans Himn .1. Clark Oraliam • J. Clark Graham. Dean of Ripon Col- lege inspires both respect and true friend- ship bv means of his delightful personal- ity. His sense of humor is to be admired and n.3 ability to discuss any topic makes every student eager to know him well. The beauty of nature, which he is able to describe so vividly, is the door that opens upon his favorite pastime hiking, and vacationing in the North Woods. Then. too. it is not unusual for Riponites to see him pedaling his bicycle out South Woods way. Dean Graham is interested in literature criticism. He is forever lending a helpful hand to budding journalists on the campus. All that is good in Ripon College is em- bodied in the splendid character of Dean J. Clark Graham. I)e in iVlcirjorie Simpson • Miss Simpson, a newcomer at Ripon College, has found a place in the hearts of all those who know her. Her zest for living and her deep interest in the activities of the college have brought her in close touch with every stu- dent. Our Dean of Women is an outdoor en- thusiast. During the winter months, she is seen heading for a high slope on which to try her skis. She has a vast knowledge of mountain climbing and skiing due to her years spent in northern Idaho and in the east. Her taste runs to sixteenth century lit- erature in particular, and she also finds much enjoyment in the New York stage productions. Along with her administrative duties which she handles so well, she is in charge of the unaffiliated freshman girls’ dormi- tory and is always available to give ad- vice and to sympathize with freshman problems. thirtren Miss Daysmiht I’: of. tin. ! .- Mrs. liar her Faculty Miss Ba genii hi—likes so many things she can't line! time to do them all . . . plays no favorites in liking to do any particular thing.

Dean of Women, this year arranged new plans for rushing the unaffiliated members of Bartlett. This group abandoned the idea of for- mal entertainment among the houses since this has been replaced by informal spreads whereby each house entertains all the other houses and is in turn entertained. SOCIAL COMMITTEE • The Social Committee is responsible for the dates and policy of the quarter parties held by the fraternities and sororities of R:pon College. Linder the guidance of Miss Ruth Strandberg, this committee, composed of the social chairman of each sorority and fraternity, each year during the winter quarter sponsors the election of the funior Prom king. We are indebted to them for the after- dinner dances which have been held in the gym. tvitntj W. S. G. A. • The Women's Self-Government Asso- ciation. headed by Gerene Verheyden. holds the regulating power of women's rules on the campus. This year, the organization has brought about a complete unity in the house hours. It has met the problem of the unoffiliated freshman dormitory and has worked to- ward the establishment of a Student Un- ion for Ripon College. A new constitution was drawn up this year and under the guidance of Dean Simpson, the W.S.G.A. hopes to satisfy every need of the women on Ripon Col- lege campus. Representatives include each house president, vice president, and onp other member of each house. STUDENT COUNCIL • Student Council, the governing body of Ripon College, has attempted this year to inaugurate a better cooperation and feeling between students and faculty. The most important work of the Coun- cil this year has been the concentrated attempt to do away with the annual Hell Week for freshmen. This year the soror- ities and fraternities have cut their week of initiation to three days. This body has sponsored a lost and found department, transportation to foot- ball and basketball games and has aided in prompting proper conduct at the Col- lege Commons. The officers for this year are: Henry Richter, president; William Larson, pres- ident. pro tempore, and Dorothy Stone, secretary. tzirn y-onr I)A ;XI ANDERSEN Iron Mountain. Mich.

Bart- lett's partitions would have a strange sto- ry to tell. Traditionally the home of Kappa Sigma Chi. Bartlett this year was turned over to incoming freshman girls, and transfer students, who calmly pro ceeded to prove that frosh were anything but lowly. It was the first year of the new plan at Ripon. and not even its most ardent sup- porters could have expected the success that resulted. From the time the first squelch bell was rung last fall, the Bart- lett “frosh” served notice on the estab- lished sororities that here was no mean competitor. None of tne traditional units were able to deny the claim. More than that, however, the girls suc- ceeded. in the short period allotted them, in organizing themselves into a compact, well governed association. Under the able guidance of Dean Marjorie Simpson. Bartlett won representation on the social committee and recognition in other cam- pus activities. Scholastically, the house took its share of honor roll positions each quarter. Next year will see a new group invad- ing Bartlett, all of the present mourners having pledged an established sorority. Concrete predictions cannot be made, but this much can be said: if the new fresh- man girls carry on the splendid tradition started this year, success is assured.

Harwood Hall held its front rank in that respect again this year. The home of Delta Phi Sigma sorority has more than sophistication to boast of. however: for it was the president of the sorority. Dorothy Stone, who won the highest honor the Ripon R.O.T.C. battalion can offer . . that of Honorary Lieutenant Colonel. Scholastically, too. the Phi Sigs placed high, leading the other sororities for one quarter, placing a number of members on the honor roll, and winning two of the six Phi Alpha memberships. Sarah Chit- tenden and Alice Mary Groves were the sorority's honor society representatives. Commencement exercises will take sev- en seniors from the Harwood sorority. Besides Miss Chittenden and Miss Groves Shirley Berquist. Doris Fry. Dorothea Hunold. Mary Alice Kohl, and Jane Pet- ers graduate. The blow will be hard to the Delta Phi Sigma unit. But it was only last year that Harwood graduated six seniors of equally high cal- iber. The sorority survived the loss, and came back stronger than ever. There is no reason to believe that it will not be able to repeat that performance. Har- wood may be relied on to carry forward a long standing tradition of leadership. OFFICERS President .......

The campus to Lyle girls is one block farther than it is to other so- rorities. but that seems to mean little to the Alpha Gamma Theta members. I low little it really means can best be seen by a brief scanning of the records. Though outdistanced in terms of paces, the Thetas are way ahead of all other organizations in terms of activities and scholarship. Intersorority affairs, all campus dances, house parties, spreads . . read down the rest of the list and you won't find an item not directed efficiently by Lyle members. House President Gerene Verheyden re- linquishes her gavel in June, thus ending a highly successful campus career. Miss Verheyden did many things and did them all well. President of the Intersorority Council and the W.S.G.A. this year, she nevertheless found time to twirl a drum major's baton at appropriate times and hold down a sponsor's position in the R. O.T.C. Other senior to leave is Emily Genge, another sponsor two years ago. The oldest house on the campus. Lyle is always a strong one. Peacefully iso- lated when it wants to be. the Alpha Gamma Theta sorority is ideally situated, even more ideally governed. Lyle has never asked quarter . . it need not do so in the future.

Shrewd political ob- servers of the Hamilton type predicted that the change to smaller quarters and hence smaller numbers would force the Kappa Sigs out of their dominating posi- tion. As in 1936. the shrewd observers were wrong. After showing their durability by surviving a test period at the old .San- ford house, the new Duffie girls took over the renovated building and made it t.. new home of a still strong Kappa Sigma Chi. Lighted porches took the place of the old Bartlett porchway. On all fronts, from the scholastic to the social, the Duf- fle girls proved their versatility. Hardest hit of all the sororities, Duffie will lose twelve seniors. Among them are Josephine Nickless, house president; Ver- na Macc, Phi Alpha member; Dagnc An dersen. campus poetess; and Mary Jones, leading lady of the Mask and Wig boards. Other seniors include Clare Davi- son. Genevieve Stoeckman, Esther French Barbara Krohn. Ellen Pearson. Marie Rogne, Mary Lou Spink, and Eleanor Warhanik. It might be expected that so great a loss will leave Duffie a weakened unit. Observers said the same thing when the girls moved into new quarters, but the year’s record proved them to be wrong. Say what they will, it can safely be pre- dicted that Duffie will hold to its High po- sition.

Joyce Winans, after a drought period that lasted eight years. Socially, the white house, trimmed afresh with new coats of green paint, was a roaring success. Again no more than half the sire of its sister organizations. Parkhurst proved on every front that quality and not quantity goes down on the record books. With one senior to give sage advice, and a group of ambitious and able juniors and sophomores in the first line trenches, the Pi Delts were successful socially, politi- cally and scholastically. The graduation of Myra Vivian, retir- ing editor of the Crinvson. this June, is undoubtedly a blow to Parkhurst. Miss Vivian's campus career has been out- standing all the way around. President of her sorority, president of Alpha Chi Alpha, news editor of the Days and finally editor of the Crimson, she has shown her exceptional talents in many ways. The Pi Delts will miss her able leadership, her sound advice. Also leaving Parkhurst are Mildred Daehn, active in debate work and Dorothy Patchett, musician and Phi Alpha member. On the other hand, the outlook for next year is by no means dark. Prom Queen Winans returns, supported by an efficient sorority personnel. It is no wild guess to say that Parkhurst will continue to com- pete on equal terms with other sororities. It cannot be otherwise so long as ability and charm are assets. OFFICERS President ......

In a most admirable manner the new Shaler residents proceeded to do just that. Despite the confusion caused at Home- coming when several uninformed alumni embarrassed the new Duffie girls by send- ing out masculine calls for frosh. there can be little doubt that the Omega Sigs have proved themselves capable of han- dling their own affairs. Graduation, generally the bugaboo of fraternities, is not quite that bad at Shaler this year. Only two seniors. Albert Dor- enfest and Richard Appleby, leave the house. With the former will go the sin- cere good wishes of every habitant of Shaler. Little Caesar ' was little only in size. His good fellowship will be missed. Appleby has been Shaler's mainstay in in tramurals and has proven an energetic captain of the tennis team. A new year will find the Shaler outfit stronger on all fronts. Freshman rein- forcements of this year will support the able efforts of an outstanding group of sophomores and juniors. Men of the Smith. Anderson and Rundeil type are prepared for a big year.

Ripon's year of change and progress have wiped away those long standing as- sociations. The Sig Taus deserted the old building, destined to fall in a few months, and sought greener pastures in the central unit of the new dormitory, which bears the name of Ripon's presi- dent. How much greener the pastures proved to be is now a matter of record. Evans did not set the campus ablaze with any sensational moves . . . but the house did maintain the Theta Sigma Tau standards in all activities. From debating to bas- ketball. the Evans boys were not hard to find. Earl Gatzke and Leigh Williams will be missed when new Prexy Jerome Town- send counts noses in the bill. Gatzke. well known for the part he played in bringing Ripon the Midwest basketball crown two years ago. piloted the house during 1939-40. Williams did credit to the fraternity in other fields. The future is far from dark for the for- mer banford boys. A large and capable freshman class will assume more respon- sibility. Present junior and sophomore classes will probably build toward the sec- ond Theta Sigma Tau millernuni . . which will come when the days of Corn and Hamclc arc relived. OFFICERS President ........

Which means that members of Al- pha Omega Alpha, formerly housed in the rambling, decaying Woodside building, have taken over new quarters in the spa- cious dormitory. Already a power in campus affairs, the new occupants of the new Wright Hall continued a rise to prominence that began two years ago. Outstanding event of the year as far as the Alpha men are con- cerned was the Junior Prom, led by Sveto Krcinar, the second Alpha to win the much coveted honor in three years. Three seniors will leave Wright this year, turning the work of keeping the house at the top over to a strong junior class. President Boh Heller. Howard Scarl and Vcrn Joseph close impressive careers when they receive their sheep- skins. Heller, besides his house presi- dency. was active socially, in the Student Council and in college publications. Scarl has been the track team's ace distance man for three years. Joseph was cadet captain adjutant of the 1940 R.O.T.C. bat- talion. There is no doubt that the fraternity will miss the able leadership of her sen- iors. But it is generally accepted that the Alphas are still on the way up. The present junior class will not fail its new responsibilities . . . nor will the campus fail to recognize Wright's right to rank among the leaders. OFFICERS President ....... Vice President .

This must be the first impression the West Hall men make on freshmen. After spending a year on the campus, especially it it were this last year, that impression must have been clarified and augmented by several others. Among these would be the unforgetta- ble picture of house president William Gilkey learning basketball from mascot Arnie. Another would be Clarence Re- no wearing a pained look while a fresh- man gapes at one of Clarence’s unknowns in the Chem Lab. Watching Robert Campbell snatch a rifle away from wor- ried R.O.T.C. medal competitors would be still a third. Final impression would be of Richard I Ianson putting his platoon through a Monday afternoon drill period. These four seniors will leave the Alpha Phi Omega fraternity this year, and with them wih go another part of the rich West Hall tradition. Campus power seems to run in cycles, and Wests star was near the bottom of its order a year ago. Under the guidance of her seniors, however, the Alpha Phis began an up- ward climb this year.

Three things can be seen in swift succession here . . . Lane, Ingram, and Smith Hall, home of the largest fra- ternity at Ripon. Its very size and personnel makes Smith an important factor in all campus affairs. The cycles of lean and prosperous years that alternate in the history of other small- er groups arc hard to find in Smith his- tory. Smith is always a group that has to be reckoned with. Commencement is always a sore thing at the home of Delta Sigma Psi fraternity. Everyone's hands are sore after the final shakes, and the new leaders’ heads are sore from their efforts to think out a way to replace seniors. Such is the case at Smith this year. The graduation list reads like a cam- pus Who’s Who. Among the athletes are Milan Bloecher. basketball captain; Neil Jantz, football captain; Vilas Lacy and Henry Richter. Richter was also president of the student body and the Ca det Officers' Club, and Cadet Lieutenant Colonel of the R.O.T.C. corps. Debater Giertsen leaves. So also do Don Currie. Bob Dauterman. Herbert Haseltine and jean Tillman, all of them assets to the house. But Smith is large and new leaders have always effectively replaced old ones. Such will probably be the case next year. The 1939 40 books have been honorably discharged. OFFICERS President .... Vice President Secretary ..... Treasurer ..... Tyler ......... Chaplain ......

The new Merriman house is the prod- uct of wishful thinking, hopeful dreaming, and hard work. Begun in the fall of the year, the building rapidly assumed the graceful architectural style its designer. Roger Sutherland, intended for it. The exodus from the old building this spring was the first note sounded in Merriman's new era. Though waiting to move in. the Kappa Pi’s nevertheless continued to hold the high position in campus activities tradi- tionally allotted to Merriman. Scholasti- cally. socially, and politically the Kappa Pi fraternity v is always a force to be reckoned with. No fraternity or sorori ty dared deny it. Graduation will not be kind to Merri- man this year. Such all-around leaders of the fraternity and campus as William Larson. Larry Barker, Don Burkhardi. Lee Knights, Robert Lane, Henning Lar- son. Wain Lynfoot and Stephen Pozgay will leave in June. But the campus axiom claiming that Merriman is never weak will hold. New leaders will take over, and the Kappa Pi’s will not lag. Tradi- tion is strengthened by the new physical plant. OFFICERS President..... Vice President Secretary..... Treasurer .... Magister .....

It was a new and dangerous step the Tracy boys took this year. Tradition was thrown to the four winds while they calmly proceeded to revamp the existing organization to make it square with the changing atmosphere of the college. A., independent house was needed, the Tracy hoys said .. . and they muddled through to get it. The previous two years were lean ones for the former Lambda Delts. After fall- ing from their position of leadership in men's scholarship, the fraternity seemed to have lost its drive. But affairs have taken a definite turn for the better this year: the Thirty-niners” organization is young and strong. The graduation of two seniors. Dave Heffernon and Oscar Wilhelm, will de- plete the club's scholastic ranks. But the freshman class this year, unusually strong, will supplement juniors and sophomores who have shown they have what it takes. The Thirty-niners are coming up fast.

Printed by Luck Inversetti, Publishers and Commercial Printer . Ripun. • A first class honor-rating publication— this was the 1939-40 Ripon College Days The Days indeed merited this distinction by the National Scholastic Press Associa- tion. Editor Albert Petermann brought sev- eral changes to the weekly this year. A new type face was used and the gloss pa- per of previous volumes was abandoned in favor of the regulation news print. Both changes made for a more attractive page make-up. During the second quar- ter the first of a series of streamlined edi- tions was published. The new experi- ment was continued throughout the quar- ter but the spring term saw the return to the usual form. Something new in the Days' editorials this year was the incessant effort to gel students interested in world events. This desire was emphasized in numerous edi- torials hitting campus provincialism. Writings concerning European affairs and the news column by Associate Editor Neil Walsh were other attempts to reach the goal. Special editions this year included the building supplement which was a tribute to bigger Ripon, the traditional frosh green sheet, and the commencement issue. The latter, an eight page publication, marked the climax of eight months' effort to produce for Ripon students a complete record of all college activities.

Kohl • The 1940 Crimson is the first Ripon yearbook ever to have been compiled in a permanent Crimson office. After a long time troubled about the non-existing head- quarters. Editor Myra Vivian with her staff moved into the southeast corner of the College Days office, which had been transformed into working quarters. Novelty is one of the main features of the annual. The colored portion of the book is the newest of its attributes, while Students should also enjoy Che pictorial studies of informal college life in angle photography. The debossing process was employed to give the cover uniqueness. Another individual characteristic of the current volume is the reproduction of the Shaler statue of the Man Lincoln. Dedicated to the late Dr. Grace G. Goodrich, the 1940 Crimson is an attempt to portray Ripon at its best. The staff has put forth its best efForts in order to make this yearbook one which every Ri- ponite will enjoy perusing so as to re-live in memory life in Ripon. srvnily-tlu te The Scribbler If ft to Kitjhl—Dtnn Graham, V. Gleavm, M. Graham, M. Spink, Mrs. McKane ® Informal gatherings at the home of Dean and Mrs. Graham result in the sto- ries and poetry which arc eagerly awaited by the students of Ripon College each quarter. At these meetings, the members of the composition class discuss individual liter- ary progress and present work for criti- cism. This year the class has been compara- tively smaller and it has been most fortun- ate in receiving work from the sophomore composition class which shows prospects for a good group in the future. The Scribbler, edited this year by the class under Barbara Krohn. Mary Lou Spink, and Walter Gleason, has featured poetry by Dagne Andersen and Mary Lou Spink, and short stories by veteran A1 Pctcrmann. Very interesting work has been done by the newcomers this year. We find sto- ries by Ralph Handwerk. Annelle Moore. James Hall, Louise Priebe. and Barbara Krohn which lead us to ask for more. Perhaps the most outstanding work has been done by Walter Gleason who has in- troduced Innocence stores with a satiric strain, offering amusing reading. The composition class encourages good writing and holds a challenge for all those students interested in any phase of jour- nalism. Sfrcnty-ftur Ripon Alumnus Clemens E. I.ueck, Alumni Secretary • The Ripon College Alumnus, pub- lished each year by the Alumni Associa- tion under the editorship of Clemens E. Lueck. features articles concerning the ac- tivities of Ripon College and its alumni. I’he publication this year held many heartfelt tributes to the memory of the late Dr. Grace G. Goodrich. One of the love- liest was this: Ave atque vale, dear Dr. Grace, yet never really good-bye to you. ‘To live in the hearts of those we leave behind is not to die.' You will be with us. always, in the summer rains, and in the autumn sunset, in the winter sunshine, and in the spring's awakening. You will be in the whispering of the pines near Bartlett, and in the gay laughter that floats down the hill from Smith hall. You will be in ail the happy events of college days and in the singing of the birds, the silvery moon- light and in the peace and stillness of the evening. It contained, too. a write-up on the ar- chitecture of the new dormitory and the new building program. One is always interested in the alumni news because the class secretaries keep each class as far back as 1877. in the news, and this slim little pamphlet is one of the strongest threads of memory which holds Ripon graduates together after they are scattered far from their Alma Mater.

Under the com- bined tutelage of Mary Alice Kohl, pres- ident. and Prof. H. P. Boody. faculty ad- viser. the Ripon chapter hits certainly ful- filled the aim of the fraternity to foster interest in the legitimate stage. Members distinguished themselves this year. The return of Mary Jones to the campus produced the memorable fresh- man play. Mary Alice Kohl. Mary Jones and Don Getz made history with leading roles. Other members of Theta Alpha Phi lent brilliant support in all the under- takings of the fraternity thus making an outstanding year for Theta Alpha Phi at Ripon College. • To Mr. Boody s able direct ing is attributed the success of the Mask and Wig plays that are enjoyed by students and townspeople each quarter. His productions of Shakespearean plays have been well received and loudly acclaimed, in addi- tion to his other ventures in dramatics. The wall of the Lit- tle Theatre with its names of plays will remain an ineffacable record of his dramatics suc- cesses. With his calm guiding and instruction, he has helped many an aspiring Thespian to attain his desired goal.

Fault- lessly attired in tuxedos, the band made a striking appearance against the red check- ered backdrop. Two numbers which were the best received by the large audience were The Unfinished Symphony. and Finlandia. Many people insisted that The Unfinished Symphony was given with a polish that would have done credit to a professional organization. A portion of the program was taken over by Director Michael Pozgay who played several cornet solos, and by Miss Laurie Querna who performed on the alto saxophone. These solos gave the right touch of variety to the program. At the present writing, Mr. Pozgay has tentatively set the date for the next con- cert for June. This concert is being fea- tured as the first open air program offered at Ripon. with the library steps being util- ized as a background. This concert should prove very interesting.

Janus • When Alpha Tau Sigma, the now obso- lete cadet officers' club had outlived its usefulness, it was necessary to organize a new club to take its place. The result was the Cadet Officers' Club, which held its first meeting in May. 1938. and which has been an influence on the campus ever since. The purpose of the club is to stimulate interest in R.O.T.C. activities. Under the able leadership of President Henry Rich- ter. Vice President Vern Joseph and Sec- retary-Treasurer Don Burkhardt the club sponsored the Military Ball and other R. O.T.C. activities during the year. In May these men turned over the reins of leadership to Farrell Anderson, president: Gene Bostwick. vice president: Jimmy Kuehn. secretary, and George Larson, chaplain.

Ktichn • Congratulations were bestowed upon Ripon’s Midwest Conference Football Champions of 1939. The season of 1939 was one of the most successful in the his- tory of Ripon College. In fact, we be- lieve that this year’s team is the greatest that the institution has ever turned out. Handicapped by injuries and lack of ex- perience. Ripon s hopes for a crown were dim until the crop of crack sophomores hit their stride and put the Crimson elev- en on its feet. The Redmen amassed a total of 59 points, while they held their opponents to a meager 32 markers. CARL H. DOEHLING ® Completing his sixteenth successful year as Athletic Director of Ripon College, Coach Doehling has been very consistent in turning out winning teams, both in football and in track. The football season just closed was a very successful season for the Ripon College Redmen. and we are eagerly anticipating another next year, with the same team back next except for three graduating seniors. Besides being Athletic Director, he is a teacher and a leader in the Physical Education Department. tunny-two Summary The lone defeat of the season was suf- fered at the hands of Knox, in the first game of the campaign, when the Si wash led by the strategic field generalship, drubbed the Dochlingites 19-0. Inexpe- rience of the team, which included seven sophomores, and the tremendous heat, were the factors that led to Ripons loss. The second game of (he year saw a band of fighting Redmen battle a power- ful Carroll college aggregation to a 6-6 deadlock. Ripon dominated the first half and the Orangemen had things their own way during the last period. Handicapped by a wet field, the Crim- son fought a snappy Beloit eleven to a scoreless tie. Both squads threatened throughout the contest, with our hoys having the edge. A fumble on the ene- my’s seven yard line, halted the Redmen's hopes in the latter stages of the event. One of the largest Homecoming crowds witnessed the Ripon machine, as it regis- tered a well-earned win over a highly- touted Monmouth foe. to the tune of 13-7. From start to finish, the encountcf was filled with thrills, provided by both teams. The winners chalked up their points early in the first and fourth quarters. In the waning minutes of the game, the losers, after filling the airlanes with aerials. scored on a short pass. Again the Scots threatened the goal line but the Ripon forward wall held. Featuring a brilliant passing attack combined with an effectvie running game the champs trimmed their upstate rivals. Lawrence. 13-0. The last period proved fatal for the Vikings as the Redmen showered the field with passes, of which two accounted for the touchdowns. With the title at stake, the Indians couldn’t resist as they drubbed a stubborn Carleton eleven. 27-0. The Ripon ma- chine pushed over three markers in the first half, and chalked up one in the last stanza of the battle. Because the winners outclassed the Carls in every department of the game. Coach Doehling used quite a number of reserves, who did a grand job. Seldom in our history have Riponites witnessed such a team that represented us last fall. Their fine teamwork and spirit was shown at all times. Much credit is due to the combined coaching jobs of Admiral Doehling and Command- er Lanphear. With only four lettermen lost from the 39’ squad, the team and loyal enthusiasts are looking ahead for a grand season.

The Orangemen's right end has been blocked out by two Ripon men. not shown in the picture. The defensive halfback has come up to spill the flashy ball carrier, but the clever Swede’’ evades the opponent and continues on his jaunt down the near sideline. NEIL JANTZ—Jam , captained the Ripon Kidmen to their grst football championship since 1935. For the third straight year he won his football letter and lie is one of Ripon’s greatest guards. So out- tsanding was Neil’s play that he was named on the All-Midwest eleven. The Ripon Red men would not he complete without him. WILLIAM GII.KEY—Bill earned his third foot- ball letter this year and is a fine hall player, lie seems to have a jinx of always getting injured but “ iilk” always comes hack for more. Ilk consistent play and pep makes him one of the best liked members of the squad. Gil key saw a lot of action this year and will he missed the next time the pig- skins are rolled out. JACK GERRIE—A rampant dynamo powered by 190 pounds of drive, Jack spilled opposition right and left from his blocking half post. Fast cover- ing on passes and hard tackling at all times made him a marked man in every game. Mis gradua- tion leaves a spot to fill and the comer lias a man sized job on his hands. ninety-four Good Interference Helps Ripon Squad Trim Carleton ° Grabbing an enemy punt on his own 30. Krcmar is shown returning the ball with good interference before. Running on the Riponite's right side is “Sarge Peters, husky fullback, who keeps an eye to see that no Carleton- ian can avoid the long run. Swede traveled 23 yards on the scamper before he was brought down. SVKTO KRCMAR—“Swede Krcmar was easily the most outstanding man on the Ripon eleven. A consistent performer. Swede i' known best for his Ml ill tiny, and kicking, hut he proved to he one of the few triple-threat men in the Midwest when his passing arm became one of the deadliest in the con- ference. Krcmar also made the All-Midwest elev- en. JIM REMBKR—Big, tall Jim Rembcr held down the left end post on this year’s team. A good blocker, and a willing hand, Jim is a hard man to hold down. Perhaps Jim i known best for his ability to snatch passes when those yards are needed for a first down. Jim earned his first “K this year and should play two more years. KEITH KERHNJ—Holding down the right end spot was one of Ripon’s great blockers, Keith Kuelm. Small but fast as greased lightning, lie could yet down under punts and tackle the receiver. He was always in the thick of the fight and is one of Ki- pons best performers. Keith has two more years at Ripon and is sure to do his part in the future. ninfty-fivf Ken Peters’ Line Plunge Scores Tally Against Carleton ® When plunging was to be done the right way Ken Peters was called upon to do it. Here Ken is seen hitting the center of the Carls line for a few pre- cious yards. On the next play he carried the leather over for his second touchdown of the contest. Krcmar (40). Croft (49). are pictured watching the act. while Wallschlaeger (in the foreground on knees) blocks out a pros- pective tackier. Ml I.HI RN CROFT—• Tiny was another of th- most outstanding Red men mi iliis year's team. A mere 2' 0 pounds. Tiny was noted for his ability to stop the runner when he tried his side of the line. So brilliant was his performance, he wa awarded a tackle post on the AU-MkIwest team. Another sophomore, Tiny will be back next year to play for Ripolt. RAY PETERS—Ray was the understudy of Krcmat this year and tlid a very good job. lie is another of the many great sophomores on this year's squad and holds a great future on the gridiron. Mis most miraculous feat was when he reeled down the field for a ( ( yard touchdown run against Mon- mouth. Roy will sec a lot of action in the future. KEN PETERS—Peters held down the fullback spot in bis first year of varsity ball and did a grand job. Ills bird driving and his ability to kick the pigskin was one of the outsanding features of Ripon's team. Ken is only a sophomore and he i' sure to have sev- eral brilliant years before him. ninety-six Rember Snags a Pass, Ten Yards in Carroll Game • Snatching a pass in mid-air big Jim Rember was able to lug the pigskin for twenty yards, before a Carroll tackier hit him. Rember dragged his oppon ent for ten yards before he hit the gridiron. This gain set the stage for Ripon's lone touchdown of the game. ART IIAI.AMKA—An was a veteran of la t year's eleven and came back this year with a very suc- cessful season. Known as the toughest tackier on the squad, Art is known best for his performances in hacking up the line. Ilalainka played renter on the team and was one of Ripon’s iron men. Art earned his second “K this year. DON ANDERSON—I on held down the other guard post along with Jam . A sophomore and lacking a little experience, Don developed into a fine lineman. Don is sure to have several years of valuable playing before him if he plays the brant! of hall he played this year. A consistent player such as Andy cannot evade glory forever. KEN MILLER-—Ken i one of the most brilliant sophomores Kipon has seen in years. Fast and tricky, with the ability to come through in the pinches he i' sure to become one of the finest hacks Kipon has ever had. Who can forget that Law- rence game when Ken ran wild? Vc are all looking for great things from Ken in his remain- ing two years. t::m ly-sevt’K Fine Crimson Offense Brings Homecoming Game Victory • Behind some fine blocking Krcmar was able to sneak through left tackle for five yards before the Monmouth defense came up fast to smother the Crim- son player. When the final gun went off. the Redmen walked off the field with a 13-7 Homecoming win put away. Paving the way for Swede are Croft (49), Gierhahn (48). Miller (43). and Ken Peters shown on the left driving against a Scot. KARI GIERHAHN—Karl played right tackle on this year’s championship eleven and played good : a 11 all year. Big and strong, Karl was always right in the thick of the battle and was known to break through the opponents’ line and nail the runner before he started. His experience, coupled with the love of the game will mean a lot to Ripon the next two years. TOM PEARMAN—Torn was the reserve left end and saw a lot of action this year. A man of small stature, Torn was in thete lighting all the time and saw a lot of action. Tom earned his second R’ this year and has one more year ahead of him. which should be his best. JEROME TOWNSEND—Romev was a reserve tight end this year and earned his second “R” in football. Rig. rugged and possessing a lot of pow- er, he made a valuable addition to this year's cham- pionship eleven. Romey saw a lot of action this season and is sure to do more than his share of playing next year. ninety-eight Krcmar Scores Another Touchdown for 27-0 Victory • This photograph was snapped as the Redmen chalked up their fourth and final touchdown against Carleton to make the score. 27-0. Here Krcmar is toting the ball on a smash over left guard. Other Riponites pictured arc Christensen (42). Jantz (46), Miller (43). Townsend (45). IVKR (MIRISTKNSEN—Christensen held down die Mocking half position this year and did a very good job. Tough, a good blocker, with a fair amount of speed made him a valuable man. Chris- tensen is a junior and is sure to be a main cog on next year's eleven. “Christy” rose to great heights when Ripon defeated the Carleton team in the Fast game of the year. WALTER WAU.SCHLARGER—“Wash” played the tackle position and showed to be a dependable reserve. A big man with lots of drive, he i- sure to go places if he gets down and really works. Wash has two more years at Ripon and we expect big things of him. EDWARD BCCKLKY- Buckley, a sophomore, got a lot of experience this year and was a valuable re- serve. Big. fasr and possessing a lot of power, “Buck was a dependable lineman for the Redmen.

Xmboliiii, II. Barno • Andy Rock's Papooses first fought a strong St. John’s Military Academy team to lose. 7-0. The game was hard fought and hard won with outstanding offensive work by Bowling and Wilinski and smashing defense by Prucha. Brahe, and Renner. The Yearlings were down in- side the enemy's 20-yard line three times but were unable to force the ball over the goal for a scoring. The second game with Marquette left a frosh squad, overcome by their oppon- ent's superior reserve strength, on the long end of a 43-6 score. The Marquette Hilltoppers put one of the strongest fresh- man teams in years on the field. Three full teams paraded the gridiron to bring about the downfall of the Redmen. The game was dominated entirely by the victors and frequent substitution tired the Ripon Yearlings. A recovered fum- ble and a 15 yard pass from Bowling to Erdmann in the second quarter gave the Crimson its only score. The prospects for next year's bid to varsity fame are Brahe. Prucha. Bowling, and Wilinski in the backfield; Erdmann Renner, and Scheuler in the line. Numeral winners included Erdmann. Al- bert. Lydiard. Renner. Scholfield, Eckert. Vehring, Brahe. Wilinski, Molinari. Eh- ley. Dane. Kitchell, Price and Prucha. one hundred Cheerleaders ANDY ROCK—Freshman Coach • Andy Rock as freshman coach, fills a position that he is ably qualified to fill be- cause of his record as an all-around ath- lete Ripon College graduated only last year. Andy held down right end for two suc- cessive years on the Crimson varsity. In- juries kept him from regular work on the basket quintet but his previous year showed his ability. As unofficial track captain. Andy estab- lished himself as one of the outstanding javelin men in the conference. Despite the handicap of starting new. Andy showed his capability by forming a strong team from his few football aspi- rants and the final whipping into shape of a smoothly cooperating basketball squad. His trackmen will be heard from soon. one hundred one Midwest Basketball Champions Hack Row. left to rit ht—J. Cavers, S. Ardzicjewski, J. Mitchell Second Row—1?. I.ent ner, S. Krcinar, M.

I.anphear • The Ripon College cagers of 1939-40 repeated the miraculous feat of last year's oustanding team by again attaining undis- puted possession of first place in the Mid- west Conference. Playing outstanding ball throughout the season the Red men ran away with top honors in the confer- ence by winning ten games and losing only two. Not only did Ripon win the Midwest championship, but the Redmen were called upon to represent Wisconsin at the national collegiate tournament held at Kansas City. Mo. The champions ac- cepted the invitation but were defeated in their initial battle by a very large and tall team from Texas. This was the first time a Ripon team was selected to participate in a national tournament and we feel proud that the team brought Ripon such an honor. The Ripon team of 1939-40 was com- posed of outstanding men. Bloecher, Mil- ler and Ardziejewski formed the forward wall while Krcmar and Rember held down the guard positions. Captain Bloecher. a veteran of two years, proved to be tiie spark plug of the team by topping the scoring list. Bill Larson was Bloecher's running mate until an old knee injury forced Bill to give up basketball. Ken Miller, a fast and dependable man. filled Bill’s shoes in the lineup and did a re- markable job. Swede Krcmar and Jim Rember formed one of the neatest pair of working guards that Ripon has ever seen. Swede was Ripon's floor man while big Jim was rhe surprise of the year and turned out to be one of the finest guards in the Midwest conference. Stan Ard- ziejewski with his tricky hook shots and uncanny way to pass to a man without looking held down the pivot post. His ability to get rebounds and his floor play was outstanding. Bloecher and Rember were placed on the Midwest All-Star team while Krcmar was selected for the second team. Williams. Hildebrand. Christensen, and Blanas played their part well and provided able assistance when called upon. one hundred two MILAN BLOECHER—Milan Bloecher was captain of Ripon's second consecutive championship team. Blick ‘ set a new all- time Ripon scoring record of 213 points and was elected to the All-Midwest squad. The Redmen are certain to miss Bloecher next year. He ranks with the greatest who ever played on the hard- wood court for Ripon. GEORGE LANPHEAR Making his debut at Ripon is Coach George Lanphear who turned out a team of championship caliber in his first year. At every game he put a lighting, scrappy team on the court which went out and took more than its share of the honors. Coach Lanphear deserves a little extra praise for all of his line work, and supe- rior coaching. Surely Coach'' can call this a personal victory because Ripon was picked to be well down in the standings by the early season predictions.

Krcmar (left foreground) and Larson (right center) stn.id ready to give any needed assistance. SVETO KRCMAR—Krcmar was the steadying in- fluence on this year's team, and was placed on the Midwest second team. “Swede” is an excellent hall handler and another guard who is a good long shot. Sveto with Bloccher was the pot shot man on the set plays under the basket and scored the crucial basket in the Lawrence game. With Rcinher next year he should rise to even greater heights. KENNETH MILLER—Kenney was the fastest man on this year's team, lie played forward and was the third sophomore in the starting lineup. A dead shot from the side. Miller was always a threat to the opposition, lie developed fast this year and should lx- a lending scorer next season. Kenney made two of the shots when the Redinen made ”5 and ” in a dazzling exhibition in the Carleton game. JIM REM HER—Rcinher was also selected for the Ali-Midwest s |iiad. Jim, a rangy guard, special ized in -nagging rebounds, and also had a dead eye for the hoop. He kept the Redinen in the Lawrence game with a dazzling display in the first half, making four baskets and a free throw for nine points. With Krcmar he should form an impregnable hackcourt combination next year. one hundred four Redmen Win Game With Carleton Through Superb Defense • This shot was taken in the closing minutes of the Carleton game here at Ripon which the Redmen won. 37-31. Nelson, the Carleton center, has just dribbled in from the far side of the court only to have his shot blocked by some superb guarding on the part of Stan Ardziejewski (No. 10). Jim Rem her (No. 19) stands by ready to take the rebound if it conies his way. Cither Ripon cagers in the picture are Krcmar (No. 11) in the left foreground and Miller coming up at Swede s left. WILLIAM 1.AKSON—A recurrence of an old knee injury forced Larson to the sideline?' early in the season. Mil! never had a chance to display his wizardry because of the injury. As a sophomore he led the team in scoring, and a a junior he was bothered all season bv the injury, incurred in the Carroll loot ha 11 game. It was a bad break for Bill, but wor?:' for the Redmen, that he was kept out. LI.OYD WILLIAMS—Williams, a sophomore, was ic:ervc center and Mailed several of the names. Stoop i a tall bo and may he moved to forward next year so he can play regularly. Lloyd had the tough luck to le a center oil the same team with Ardziejewski and is a good center in his own right. Whenever called upon, I.lovtl gave a good account of himself. STAN LI. Y ARDZIEJEWSKI—Stan played center foi the chumps and outjuinped cveiy man lie played against. Ardja.v has an effortless way of playing and always seemed to he in the right places. Ivs- pet ially good on rebounds, Stan made the prettiest tip-in of the year in the Carroll game. A sopho- more, Stan has two years of competition left. our JmnJrrJ ftv,- Outstanding Defensive Play Helps Crimson Cayemen Whip Beloit • Outstanding defensive play prevented the Beloit cagers ringing up a two- pointer as this picture was taken in the Ripon-Bcloit game which the Red men won. 36-29. 'Stoop' Williams is shown blocking a shot of Beloit’s Bill Harmon (No. 5) as Krcmar (right foreground) and Rember (No. 19) pre- pare to get the rebound. The Ripon forwards. Bloecher (left foreground) and Larson (No. 15) stand ready to give any needed assistance. FRANK KI.ANAS—Blanas, a guard, was also a reserve. Frankie was a smooth hall handler and saw service in almost all the games. Blanas teamed up this year with Christensen as the second team guards and they formed a smooth combina- tion. A sophomore, Blanas has two more years of action left. JAMES HILDEBRAND—Jim was a reserve tor- ward this year, and while not railed on often was a sparkplug when he did play. He scored in the last minute of the Carroll game with a pretty one- hander from the side. Mildy has another year left and should see much more service next year. IVER CHRISTENSEN—“Bud,” a short stocky guard, saw service in almost every game and was one of the scrappiest players on the team. Iver al- ways secured a lot of jump balls and was .t hall- hawk on defense. Christensen will have one year left and will fit very neatly into the 1940-41 Ln- phear squad. one hundred six Freshman Basketball flack Row, hft to right—J. Kitchell, I Kellogg, J. Feeney, R.

F.rdman ° The freshman basketball squad tra- veled to Lawrence Jan. 10 to receive its first defeat. 38-29, at the hands of a quin- tet that played a varsity styled game. Erdmann, until he was expelled early in the third quarter, succeeded in sinking three field goals by his speedy breaks and well timed shots. Salter starred on the floor for the Papooses handling and pass- ing the ball with equal skill. Despite the fact that the Vikingettes controlled the floor, the Crimson squad displayed fine cooperation. Again Erdmann’s fast breaks and accu- rate eye accounted for four buckets against Ambrose Eats, a local team, as Fccncy took scoring honors with four field goals and two charity tosses. Daw- son’s scoring spree with one handed shots from the free throwing ring proved the highlight of the game, ending 46-41. The Yearlings showed a better type of coop- eration and were able to show the teach- ings of Andy Rock with spectacular re- sults. The Vikingettes invaded Ripon terri- tory to again return home victorious to the tune of 41-21. Unable to cut down an early disadvantage, the Papooses were swept into defeat with bafFling plays and fast action. The second period brought back a fighting team with Dawson sinking shots from all angles and Crocker showing the spirit and speed of his earlier games. Even this duo rally was unable to break up the drive of the Lawrentians. Feeney, on entering the game in the third quarter, started out by sinking a long shot which brought added action from Dawson who took matters into his own hands and sprinted down alone to sink a shot surrounded by Vikingettes. Frosh who will be able men for varsity positions next year are Salter. Erdmann. Dawson. Crocker and Vernes. Numeral winners included Salter, Erd- mann. Dawson. Crocker. Vernes. Feeney.

Despite the conditions which they had to put up with. Paced by Krcmar, Koepp. Searl. Peters. Mitchell, Wrigley. Pearce. Heup, Croft. Miller and Lapotka have managed to gain one victory over Carroll. They lost two meets, one to Beloit and one to Lawrence. In the Beloit relays Krcmar took a neat first in pole vaulting i2 ft. 4 in. while Koepp took a fifth in the shot put. They were the only two that placed. In the Midwest conference meet, Ripon scored 7 points. Krcmar taking 5 with a 12 ft. 6 in. vaulting and Searl 2 in the distance event. The trackless wonders who have earned sweaters up to date are: Krcmar, 46£; Wrigley, 232.- Koepp. 19: Pearce. 15. and Searl with 14 points, respectively.

A diminu- tive fellow. Searl had a great endurance, and was a great distance runner. This vear he placed in both Midwest and state meets. Martin Koepp Koepp. a junior, has been a consistent point getter for the past two years. He has scored in every dual meet in that time, and has placed in one Mid- west meet. With one year of competi- tion left Koepp can be counted on for his best year. James Mitchell- Mitchell, a sophomore, competed in the 440 yd. dash and won his letter by placing third in the slate meet. Jim ran in the Armour relays in Chicago during the winter and was leading in the 440 when he fell. With two years ol track left he can be counted on for man more points. Victor Wrigley—Wrigley has shown more improvement this year than any other trackman. He earned points in ev- ery dual meet and then went on to win the 220 and place third in the century, in the state meet. Wrigley, if he keeps up his improvement, can be the boss man in the dashes in the state next year. Ray Peters—Peters, a sophomore, com- peted in the javelin. Under the tutelage of Andy Rock, who holds the college rec- ord he was improving rapidly this ye .u. With two more years of competition left Peters should become a consistent point scorer in the javelin. Roswell Pearce Pearce is a trackman of the iron man variety. He runs the halt , mile, and two mile. His favorite event is the mile, and in this event he scored most of the points which gave him his let- ter. A sophomore Pearce has two more years of action left. Sveto Krcmar—Krcraar won his second white sweater in two years by winning his track letter. Swede finished a great yaer by winning the pole vault in the Midwest meet and setting a new col- lege record of 12 ft. 6 in. Sveto led the track team in scoring with a season's total of 50 points. Krcmar competed in the pole-vault, broad jump, high jump, and javelin. one hundred nine Freshman Track Hack Row, left to r'ujhl—(’. Marinopmilos, I). Kester, (i. Behne, M. Moliiinri, R. Ktien i, I..

From the opening ot school until the third quarter, all houses engaged in a see-saw type of action, shuf- fling up and down the standings as each event was concluded. Early in the third quarter Smith and West took command- ing positions, and by the end of the soft- ball schedule the Delta Siys finally rested on top of the heap permanently. At the time of writing, baseball remained on the program, but Smith had totaled 266 points. West held second with 238. fol- lowed by Shaler with 214. Merriman with 204. Wright and Evans with 192. and Tracy with 100 counters. The opening event, touchfootball, saw Merriman and Smith share championship honors. Each team boasted a record ot four victories, one defeat and one tic. to finish just ahead of Shaler and Wright. Wright took fifth place while Evans and Tracy shared the cellar. Representation on the all-star touchfootball teams was divided among all seven teams with Smith and Merriman placing the most men. The honor eleven is as follows: Ends: Patrow. Merriman, and Lacy. Smith; tackles: Licsch. West, and Walker. Merriman; center: Harold jantz. Smith; backs: Scott. West: Riggs. Smith: Appleby. Shaler; Burkhardt. Merriman. Co-champions were again crowned in the next event, volleyball. Evans and Wright halls finished with identical rec- ords of five wins against a lone loss. Mer- riman placed third, just ahead of Smith to take a slim two-point lead in the totals at that point. Shaler, West, and Tracy, finished fifth, sixth, and seventh in the fin- al volleyball standings. Shaler copped the first undisputed title of the year by posting a perfect record of six straight wins in handball. Finish- ing behind the Omega Sigs were Smith. Merriman. Evans. Wright, and West in that order. As usual the intramural spotlight foi the second quarter fell on the basketball race. A crack West hall quintet, com- posed of five former high school captains, ran away with this event. John Barth. Bob Scott. Keith Liesch. Martin Koepp. and Bill Gilkey were the Alpha Phi reg- ulars who finished the season undefeated. Of this title winning team. Barth and Scott won places on the all-star live, along with Butch Lapotka. Smith. Karl Gier- hahn. Wright, and Lloyd Smith. Shaler The second team included Howie Schuh. Merriman; Sam Dubow, and Les Ander- son. Evans; Keith Liesch. West, and Keith Kuehn, Wright. Evans. 1939 champion, took second place in the torrid race for consolation honors, followed by Wright. Smith. Mer- riman. Shaler. and Tracy. Smith. Shal- er’s mainstay, regained the individual scoring crown he won in 1938 by nosing out Scott, last year’s high man. by a nar- row margin. The ice carnival, the newest event on the intramural program, ran amuck at the hands of the weather this year, and only the skiing events were held. Art Good- 011C hundred twdve man. West freshman, paced his team to a victory, while Evans copped second place due to the efforts of Chuck (tiers. Smith and Shaler were the only other houses to win points in the meet. West scored its third win of the year in the rifle competition, hy piling up an impressive total of dl3 points. Martin Koepp and Clarence Reno led the Alpha Phi’s. Smith took second to follow West in the totals at this point. Wright hall, grand champion of the 1938-39 race, scored its only champion- ship of the current season in the boxing and wrestling event. The victors boast- ed four individual titles. West and Mer- riman tied for second honors to stay at the head of the intramural standings. Wrestling titlists were: Alex Klcrono- mous, Wright; Johnny Francisco. Wright. Keith Liesch, West: Ed Jacot. Merriman. and Tiny Croft. Wright. Boxing cham- pions were: Paul Kellogg, Shaler; Ray Peters, Wright; Orville Erdman. Tracy: Bob Lohr. Evans, and Bob Alberts. Sha- ler; Liesch, Jacot. and Peters, retained their crowns from 1939. Smith started its drive for the cham- pionship by annexing first places in bowl- ing and squash paddle. After a hectic race, the Delta Sig keglers nosed out West and Shaler by one game. Tracy and Evans tied for fourth in the final bowling standings. In squash paddle, the Delta Sigs. led by Hank Richter and Bill Dane, were unbeaten in six starts. Shaler and Mcriman shared second honors. This pair of championships gave Smith a 12- point lead over West in the totals, with Shaler, Merriman, and Wright following the leaders closely. Six hard fought victories against strong kittenball competition clinched the grand trophy for Smith. Evans took runner-up honors while West’s all-star battery was largely responsible for the third place won by the Alpha Phis. Six houses were represented on the in- tramural all-star softball team, which in- cluded: Battery. Barth and Ardziejewski. West: first base. Gierhahn, Wright; sec- ond. Buckley. Evans: shortstop. Smith. Shaler; third base. Richter. Smith; out- field. Burkhardt. Merriman; Dubow, Ev- ans. Miller. Smith, and Hildebrand, Wright. Honorable mention went to Smith's winning battery.

Kuchn • For the past twenty years the R Club has been an integral part of the ath- letic and social activities on the Ripon campus. This year because there had been a slight lack of interest in the organ- ization the active members took ti upon themselves to revise the constitution, iron- ing out any portions which in the past had led to difficulties. Under the revised constitution this year the club has risen to new heights in its place upon the campus. The annual Homecoming program in- cluding the pep rally, bonfire, freshman skits, greased pole fight, and Homecom- ing dance was one of the most successful in recent years. When time for the big game had rolled around the spirit of the students and of the alumni had reached a point where it just wouldn’t let the team lose. The team with this spirit be- hind them then proceeded to defeat a much larger and heavily favored Mon- month eleven by a 13-7 score. This year, for the first time in many years, the R” Club wound up the year with ei surplus in the treasury. A an quet which the active members hope will grow to be an annual affair is to be financ- ed with this surplus. The officers for the past year have been William Larson. Merriman. president; Sveto Krcmar. Wright, vice president; Lloyd Smith, Shnler. secretary, and Je- rome Townsend, Evans, treasurer.

Only woe can betide the brave but foolish soul that whispers the word around Sergt. Peters' office in the R.O.T.C. headquarters. And nothing but a contemptible glance rewards inquis- itive underlings who suggest that it's Sarge s last enlistment. A year ago a Days writer claimed that the Sarge would he watching the last of his R.O.T.C. boys graduate this year, but the writer reckoned without the man. No, Sergt. Arthur Peters will not be retired nor will he retire this year. Seniors may count on returning to headquarters while on furlough from Thomason act duty and finding the standing army waiting to hear their sorrows. What started all this talk was the fact that two years ago the Sarge enlisted for his eighth hitch. Next December that period is up. but periods of enlistment make little headway with a Ripon tradi- tion. And since he is a Ripon tradition, of 21 years standing, he will be doing business at the old stand next year. • Heading the college Commons, and busines manager for the college is Mr. Jasper G. Pickett. Gruff and rugged on the exterior, it is only a shell concealing the real self within. His gruffness covers a heart of gold that warms to greet the college students and all who are his friends. A rare smile always creeps over his countenance. It makes the harsh- lines of worry vanish into thin air and that hidden inner self comes glowing to the surface. He is always on deck when it comes to promoting some enterprise for the stu- dents’ pleasure. No school picnic or col- lege function would be complete without him. He is ever ready to lend a helping hand, and no favor asked is too big to be considered and granted. Peters - oh,' hundred rit htmi Military Ball ° On the night of Jan. 26. 1941. Ripon College gym was the scene of the twenty- first annual hop sponsored by the Ripon R.O.T.C. unit. It was truly “the affair of affairs. Bobby Griggs and his orchestra fur- nished the music for the lovely ladies and uniformed gentlemen that graced the beautifully decorated ballroom, the theme of which was red. white and blue, a tri- bute to military genius. Henry Richter and his sponsor. Doro- thy Stone, led the grand march at 10:30. The senior officers and their ladies marched through an arch of sabers held by junior officers as has been the tradi- tion. Slowly the colorful throng milled toward the end of the gym. Music faded into the distance, lights were dimmed, and all eyes focused on the American flag. Suddeniy the strains of our National An- them burst forth and all youthful soldiers and their ladies paid allegiance to our country's flag. Military spirit, uniforms, medals and sabers, and beautiful gowns made the Hop something to be long remembered among days at Ripon College. one in utlrrj nineteen Cadet Officers and Sponsors Cadet Lieutenant Colonei HENRY RICHTER Honorary Cadet Lieutenant Colonel DOROTHY STONE Cadet Major Executive ROBERT LANE Honorary Cadet Major MILDRED MURDOCH Cadet Captain Staff JEAN TILLMAN Honorary Cadet Captain MYRA VIVIAN Cadet Captain (Adjutant) VERN JOSEPH Honorary Cadet Captain RUTH CLAUSEN one hundred twenty Cadet Captain Company A DONALD BURKHARDT Honorary Cadet Captain SHIRLEY BERQU1SY Cadet Captain Company B HOWARD SEARL Honorary Cadet Captain ELAINE EKERN Cadet Captain Company C MILAN BLOECHER Honorary Cadet Captain GERENE VERHEYDEN Cadet Captain Company D NEIL JANTZ Honorary Cadet Captain BETTY JANE WEISS one hundred tivrnly on, Prom King and Queen Queen Joyce Winn ns, King Sveto Kremar one hundred twenty-k.vo Court of Honor Left lo rit hl—M.

Yellow and black carried out the theme perfectly, created by Victor Wrigley’s in- genuity. The color and design along with the indirect lighting effect were im- pressive as well as ''new. The strains of the “Alma Mater start- ed the grand march, which was led by Prom King Sveto Krcmar and his lovely queen. Joyce Winans.

The annual walk-around or get ac- quainted dance opened the round of fun and frolic for this year. Scattered here and there between walk around and homecoming week end were socials, the Duffie housewarming, and in- tcrsorority midnight spreads. Innovations in house parties this year were Lyles circus party, complete with peanuts, popcorn and pink lemonade. Tra- cy's bowling party, and Smith's star- dust party. Then. too. we enjoyed the Don Cossack Chorus, the Mask and Wig plays. You Can t Take It With You. Julius Cae- sar.' and Petticoat Fever.'' The fresh- men. not to be outdone left ns laughing at the antics of Charlie’s Aunt. Harwood presented its annual Top hat. white tie. and tails party, Parkhurst went Topsy Turvy.” and the West gangsters sent out the paddy wagon to call for their molls. This year ushered in another success- ful military hall at which cadet officers and their lovely ladies danced to the mus- ic of Bobby Briggs and his orchestra. Instead of the usual lull after the Mil- itary Ball. Wright came up with its an- nual Petty party, featuring the famous Petty' drawings as decorations. Duffie followed with its formal theater party, complete with spotlights and first nighters. The winter months put no damper on Ripon's activities but rather, encouraged the Winter Carnival, the Band Revue. and opened the way for the fairer sex to entertain the men in a genuine Leap year manner. Leap year called for a Paul Bunyan party, put Sadie Hawkins in the limelight, cut loose in a Dogpatch Jamboree, and ended in a Leap year dance which hon- ored the most eligible bachelor and his company of handsome, well dressed, and versatile colleagues. This was a year that brought with it a greater harmony and friendship between houses. It resulted in many all-college socials such as those sponsored by Bart- lett, Smith, Wright, and Merriman on the opening of their new house. Too. we must not forget to mention the pledging teas, smokers, and scavenger hunts. The long awaited Junior Prom, featur- ing Freddie Daw and his orchestra, issued in the spring season and afforded an en- joyable evening for Ripon men and coeds. Ripon College sponsored its annual Friendship Week-end and its students en- tertained high school seniors at a Friend- ship dance. The all-school picnic found students and teachers alike having a wonderful time with no more serious effects than a hit of sunburn. As school drew to a close, the girls’ houses celebrated their mothers' week- ends. the fraternities and sororities ended their social season with successful spring quarter parties, and the seniors drew their well earned honors at Commencement time, sharing their special day this year with the coming of Spencer Tracy to the campus to receive his honorary degree. cue hundred livrnfy-fivr The Ripon College Building Program • The year that has just passed wil! be remembered in Ripon history as the be- ginning of a period of flux and change, of growth and progress, and the first sens- ing of the culmination of a dream that is yet to be fully realized. Physically this spirit has been repre- sented in the construction of three new buildings, which have given substance to the rumblings of a new Ripon. The new dormitory, housing Wright. Evans and Shaler halls; the new Merriman home, lending an incredible beauty to the old Sanford site on the hill; and the modern heating plant, which replaced the old structure back of Dawes cottage—these were the specific steps in the forward drive. Into the construction of each of these buildings has been poured all the archi- tectural skill and practical workmanship the builders could muster. The late Eu- gene Talmadge designed the new dormi- tory to become an architectural represen- tation of the aims and tradition of the col- lege. With its spacious study rooms, its richly furnished lobbies, its beautifui ex- terior. suggesting strength sustained and calm, the building completely fulfills the architect's purpose. The man who designed Lane library. Roger Sutherland, endowed the campus with further proof of his architectural skill in the new Merriman structure. No other building has evoked so much praise and wonder, both for exterior beauty and interior comfort and liveableness. The Phi Kappa Pi leaders chose wisely and well. The building will remain a monu- ment both to Mr. Sutherland and the cam- pus. Shrewd observers continue to hear the distant sound of newer building, of great- er expansion. The athletic field will be completed in the fall; after that, specula- tion is rife over the possibility of a new girls’ dormitory, a new college union. new addition to the gymnasium, and or. and on. There is no confirmation of these possibilities, however, and speculators will get no satisfaction from administration of- ficials. Perhaps there is no basis for such beliefs . . . but again, the past is the best key to the present, the present to the fu- ture. It is to a far-seeing board of trustees, to the always keen President Silas Evans and to the complete cooperation of the faculty and administration that a large share of the credit for the extended build- ing program must go. To these groups the student body will always owe a debt of gratitude too great to pay. Silent and deepfelt appreciation of the new beauty of the campus is all the return these men and women will receive. To them it is more than enough. Returning alumni, though first struck with the physical change, have comment- ed on the persistence of the ideals and tradition of the college. There is change, yes . . . but the intimate college remains just that. Ripon is still the home of a friendly, democratic student body and an alert, student-minded faculty. These are qualities which are not subject to physical mutability. Who doubted but that they will never change? one hundred twenty-six our. ADVERTISERS If It’s Good...
