He be- gins it the moment a freshman enters school, for he emphasizes ir in his Bible classes. His days are filled with business in the East office. Especially in this time ol crisis when every college student wonders what the future holds in store, what he can do to best serve his nation at war— especially now does President Evans con- centrate on helping his students. In cha- pel several times during the year he has outlined programs to aid anyone who de- sires army, navy or air corps affiliation, and yet continue his college education. Hut he does nut remain in his office in East entirely. Often he is seen about the campus, conversing with students. He takes great pride in watching the trees and shrubs its they gain strength and grow. When meeting the president, freshmen arc amazed at his interests, but seniors know him as a vital and most sig- nificant part of four years’ growth. eight jbecst Cjnaham andi 2 ean rleA. Ull Although there are hours posted on his office door, these do not always apply to college students. Most of Dean Gra ham’s time is given to students wanting a word from experience. If one finds it difficult to arrange a study plan. Dean Graham suggests a method, one which should bring lasting results. Roll call in- vitations are not dangers for those who know the dean; they arc an offer of assist- ance. In his classes students learn to apppreciate Shakespeare, to evaluate lit- erary art. The creative writer listens to him. takes his advice. On Ripon’s hill. Dean Graham is both friend and teacher. Though her duties as Dean of Women were new this year Miss Isabelle Terrill has been an integral part of the Ripon College administration for several years. Her classic features have seemed ideally suited to a Latin instructor and her plat- form presence and poise, combined with her exceptional talent as a violinist, have made her full curriculum a popular one with the student body. This year, when called upon to fill the vacancy. Miss Ter- rill calmly added the innumerable respon- sibilities of a dean to her already crowded schedule, and furthermore, created order out of chaos and smoothly solved many insistently difficult problems of campus life. nine MesnbeAA xf OuA. Goilex e. fyacultif. Dr. Clifford H. Moore—His informal lectures on American history, government, and politics are attended by a large num- ber of students—and at home Dr. Moore tends to his flowers, for which he is lo- cally noted. Dean C. Clark Graham—The ‘Dean to us all. Dr. Graham conducts classes in literary criticism, literature, and advanced composition in the English department and supervises the publication of one edi- tion of aspiring writers—the ‘Scribbler.’ Mme. Lay Explaining the intricacies of French grammar has become only part of the duties of Mine. Lay. This year she is also teaching Spanish to help sati 5fy the great demand for this language. Dr. Constance Raymaker—World eco- nomics have been in a dizzy spin for the past decade yet not too fast a spin so as to confuse Dr. Raymaker, department head of economics. Ledger paper, two sheirp pencils and perhaps a little experi- ence with a personal budget all help to make a future econ major get a balance sheet to jibe. Prof. Bruno E. Jacob Quiet, efficient and fast moving. Prof. Bruno facob is nation- ally known as the secretary of the Nation- al Forensic League and for his result- producing methods of teaching speech. Prof. Jacob also coaches the successful varsity and freshman debating squads. Prof. Grant—Freshman English is only one of the courses offered by Prof. Grant. His Teacher's English wins the approval of many students who are interested in this Reid. sen Professor William Harley Barber—You meet him first as Registrar when classes begin, and then in any one of the many courses in the Physics department where his careful instruction simplifies intric- acies. Dean Isabelle Terrill Besides listening to and solving the numerous problems of the feminine enrollment Miss Terrill teaches popular courses in Latin and my- thology- In spare moments she enjoys playing her violin and we enjoy her recit- als. Dr. Clifford Crump Besides conducting classes in elementary and advanced math- ematics. Dr. Crump finds time to conduct classes in astronomy the third quarter and to thrill the chapel audiences with im- pressions of his world travels. Dr. Coogan—The professor most often mistaken for a student is Dr. Coogan. However, lie shows how deserving he is of his title by his able instruction in “der Deutch. Prof. Lawrence Childs—To Prof. Childs falls the task of guiding students through their math requirements. His quiet smile has done much to calm the fears of many a perplexed frosh over a complex prob- lem and his simple yet thorough meth- ods have encouraged many to make math their life work. Dr. J. F. Groves—Leads students through all the ologies of the science courses and dissects the daintiest flower that blooms in the spring as well as some of the less desirable feline creatures. eleven Miss Lamb—Besides giving valuable as- sistance to those who would follow' in her foosteps as a librarian. Miss Lamb teaches a course which deals with books. Col. Russell J. Potts—Precise, yet human, efficient, yet understanding, and as a result Ripon’s military department under his leadership has turned out some of the most valuable men in the nation’s fighting forces. The Colonel directs the instruc- tion of the battalion in tactical problems and military sciences as P.M.S.6T. Capr. L. Steinman—Two years of work in the military department have made Capt. Steinman an invaluable instructor in this field. In addition, he offers train- ing for girls in rifle shooting. Dr. Trytten—Taking the place of Prof. Barker. Dr. Trytten comes to Ripon to add to the strength and efficiency of the chemistry department. He is also a fine tennis player. Miss Josephine Hargrave—Head librarian and Professor of Library Science. She and her assistants keep the books ’ of Ripon College that is those in Lane library. Miss Strandberg— Gussie.” as she is know'n to her friends, manages to find time to act as house mother of Kappa Sigma Chi in addition to teaching zoolo- gy. comparative anatomy, human anato- my. and parasitology. twelve Professor H. M. Barbour—Philosophy, and ali that it includes—present day. its history, ethics, logic, and aesthetics— come into the field of instruction under the direction of Professor Barbour. Dr. George Dudycha—His general and applied psychology courses inspire deeper thought and always provide valuable and entertaining knowledge. So entertaining it would seem that although unregistered, several canine friends sat in on the rela- tionship lectures second quarter. Dr. S. R. Ellis Dr. Ellis as departmental head of the Education Department con- ducts courses required for teachers’ cer- tificates. With his pleasant smile and genial manner he teaches prospective teachers that to impart knowledge with smile makes fewer of the little ones play hooky and makes teacher more desirable. Dr. Ludwig Freund—Combining vivid personal experiences with that knowledge imparted by the text plus a bit of the old world touch. Dr. Freund makes his sociology, economics and political theory lectures lively and realistic. Miss Oyster -Furniture polish is often made by chemistry students, but this is only one side to the subject, capably taught by Miss Oyster. Dr. Edwin W. Webster Every Thurs- day night the members of the Contem porory History Class meet with Dr. Web- ster to unravel the trend of world events, while other students meet with him during the day to explore ancient and modern history facts. thirteen Miss Thiel—For those interested in a study of music. Miss Thiel offers courses in harmony, musical form, counterpoint, ear training, and original composition. Prof. Harold Chamberlain—Music hath charms which sooth the savage breast, and even those who arc not quite so sav- age finds that music under “Skipper's baton adopts a new and thrilling interpre- tation. His informal methods along with his interesting analogies make a course in music or speech more than mere book learning. Miss Crawford Keeping the Bartlett girls under her wing is only one of the tasks of Miss Crawford. She also teaches women’s physical education and a hy- giene course now required for freshman girls. Professor II. Phillips I3oody—Actors and actresses are molded under the expert direction of Professor Boody in his many speech classes—including voice training, work in radio plays and scripts and oral interpretation—and Mask and Wig pro- ductions. Professor John W. Becker—Modern lan- guages and art lectures draw many stu- dents under the wing of our amiable Daddy Becker. Muchas muchas students are enrolled especially in his Spanish classes. Jasper Pickett Probably the greatest aid to the promotion of social life on campus is the Commons, college dining hall. The man behind this organization is Jasper Pickett, who also is business manager of the college. jour teen Maj. A. L. Barker—An able experimenter and teacher heading the Chemistry de- Ipartment; he left the campus during the year to take a part in the work in the chemical division of our national army. jean Douglas—No office would be com- plete without a cheerful cashier to settle money matters. This is the job of Jean Douglas in the college office. Lieut. Johnson—Military training runs smoothly under the guiding hand of Lieut. Johnson, knofrn to many Ripon students as just plain “Stretch. Mr. Lanphear- - Smilin' George acts as instructor in the department of health and physical education for men. As head basketball coach he has turned out teams that display the game at its best. Prof. Carl H. Doehling —“Coach,” no matter what the occasion, can always counter with a tale of experience and some very interesting ones which always make a course in men's phy ed interest- ing and profitable. He instills the true spirit of competition into all his lads and though the going may be tough and the spot award little the essential reward is doing.

Knop Headed by Harry Knop. student body president, the Student Council during this year has acted as a means through which every member of the school body has been able to express his views or sugges- tions concerning college affairs. Besides voicing student opinion, the council, com- posed of the presidents of the sororities and fraternities, has carried the ideas of the faculty and administration back to the students, thus helping to draw the two groups closer together. Some of the things the council worked on during 1941-42 included the annual walk-around dance, the encouragement of organizations such as the college band and the Christian Forum and the revision of the Artist Course seating arrangement. Probably one of the most marked accom- plishments of the group was the success- ful promotion of a more friendly spirit between this school body and that of Lawrence college, Ripon’s traditional riv al. In this the council worked with stu- dent representatives of Lawrence. Besides Knop. other officers of the Council included Keith Kuehn, represent- ing Wright, wrho served as president pro tern, and Pat Hooper from Harwood, sec- retary. Other members of the Council were: Frances Sischo from Lyle. Jackie Brown from Parkhurst, Betty Jane Weiss from Duffie. Howard Schuh from Merri- man. Pete Renner from Evans, Don An- derson from Shaler, Bill Fleck and later Jim Rcmbcr from Smith, Orville Erdmann and later John Bodette from Tracy, and Ervin Zippel from West. twenty 9 tteSi-SosMSiit f. Council All rushing carried on by the four so- rorities each fall is subject to regulations by Intersorority Council, whose job it is to establish and to enforce the rushing rules. Advised by Dean Terrill and headed by Pat Hooper with Frances Sis cho as secretary, the Council is composed of the president and one other representa- tive—the rushing chairman—from each sorority. As has been the custom for the last two years, the council set up rules under which every new unaftiliated coed was pledged to one of the sororities. It also regulated the number of pledges each house was to take and dealt with all problems arising from the rushing pro- gram as well as those concerning other intersororitv relations. Following tnc precedent newly estab- lished last year, the Intersorority House Council worked in connection with the Intersorority Council. This group, com- posed of the four sorority presidents, had the job of campusing girls who broke reg- ulations of house hours as well as setting the terms of such campuses. In this the presidents were aided by the house coun- cil of each of the six women's houses on the campus. l.ejt io right—P. Peek, B. J. Weiss, F. Sischo, L. Guenther, M. Graham, J. Brown, E.

Hooper twenty-one f'Mo i flzauti ul £cuf,4. £{ieA cesi InxicAf Each sorority contributed the names of four candidates, the students voted in chape! narrowing the field by student vote to ten beautiful girls and thus the stage was set for the Crimson beauty con- test which was to determine “RIPON’S MOST BEAUTIFUL WOMEN.” Each girl’s face was photographed from every conceivable angle in an effort to show them at their best. They were the final judges as to the photo submitted in the final judging. Then the pictures of |ane blumenshine, Kay Klenert. Pat Peck, jane Van Bergen. Phyllis Lindsley, Betty Jane Weiss, Bonnie Kaiser. Barbara Kristjanson. Pat Hooper and Margaret Dunn were sent to the final judge Spen cer Tracy. As Ripon's gift to the cine- ma world, he was well qualified to choose six of these girls. The final selection found Spencer 1‘racy picking the six girls whom he thought to be the most beautiful on the Uipon campus while on a Victory Bond Tour of the United States, so that over fifty of the greatest stars in the movie world have seen these pictures. The Crimson is very proud to present to the students of Ripon College the six girls chosen by Spencer Tracy whose pictures are found on the opposite page.

DOROTHY Tam� KR Qantlett tM-cdl This year's group of freshman girls liv- ing in Bartlett Hall is the third such group under the comparatively new freshman dormitory system. It seems, to all ap- pearances. to be a system that works well, for. under the leadership of Lucy Sclmei- derbauer, house president, the gals have, we hear, had a year that will be mem- orable in the lives of all of them. Not the least of their pleasant memories of living together was the presence of their new house-mother. Miss jane Crawford, who is rather like one of them herself. Since she is also the Women's Physical Education instructor, it is to be expected that she found extracurricular opportu- nities to keep her charges in tip-top phys- ical condition. As a strongly unified house. Bartlett can stand with the best organized group on the campus, and as far as originality of social ideas goes, she has few her equal—as was proved by her steak-fry dance on the tennis courts this April. Next year's Bartlett girls will indeed find a precedent set for them by this year's group. Top Row, left to right—Miss Crawford, M. Hullough, E. Warlike, fc. Johnson, M. Murray, I). Tambkc, li.

Whether study- ing. smoking, or talking, there is always a representation there to say hello to a pass- erby and make him aware of this relative- ly new girls' dorm. Now in its second year, it has made a name for itself, and is no longer considered the overllow ol Bartlett. The two houses do work to- gether, hold their parties together, and abide by similar rules, but at the same time, the Annex ' is recognized as a dis- tinctly separate dorm, self-governing and independent. It has its own officers and its share of inner-house activity. The co-eds pride themselves on their loyalty to this and to each other.

They’ve pitched the un- desirable interpretation of that vastly misunderstood word “sophisticate straight out the window and have re- vealed to the campus the true meaning of sophistication, the essence of which is. after all, real leadership and social poise Which are facts we can easily discover for ourselves by taking a look at the re- sults of the combined talents of Harwood and its addition of this year. Harwood Annex. Under the guidance of President Pat 1 Iooper. the Delta Phi girls garnered many a social honor—four Military Ball sponsorships, the Snow Queen's title, and later three of the sisterhood were named campus beauty queens. When (he time came to honor scholastic merit, two Delta Phis were named to Phi Alpha member- ship. A strong, new freshman member- ship will help to offset this year’s loss of capable seniors.

Always holding a good scholastic rec- ord. they figured in athletics, dramatics, and rifle work as well.

We found a DufFie girl or girls participat- ing in everything atop the hill. They took part in dramatics, sang in the college choir; two presented organ and piano recitals in convocations: one authored and composed the new pep song which DufFie introduced in a chapel period; another edited the College Days. Continuing a series of DufFie social honors. Jane Finley led the military ball and two others were sponsors. Three were chosen in the Crimson beauty con- test. In scholarship we found a Kappa Sig leading Phi Alpha, and DufFie girls on the honor roll. For intramural sports DufFie entered a team in all WAA activ :tics; five sports had DufFie girls as heads. Graduation will find ten leaving Kappa Sigma Chi. Included are Betty Jane Weiss, president, and Jane Finley. Helen Fossland. Lois Guenther. Marian Henkel. Enid Lewis. Betti Priebe. Louise Priebe.

Parkhurst was for- tunate in having that type of leadership and the clientele necessary for such coop- eration Though small in numbers, they have been rich in quality. Their new pledges will aid them greatly. Two prom sponsorships, a beauty queen candidate, presidency of W.S.G.A.. and a member on the honor roll has added to the house prestige. An excellent fresh- man group has proved a definite asset to the house. Much talent being displayed in dramatics, sports and scholarship. Graduation will not deplete the mem- bership of the Pi Delts. They have no members who are seniors. Thus, it is with high hopes that Parkhurst faces a future that at present appears very bright and great things arc to be expected in '43.

But. the ill fortune which has plagued Tracy for half a decade struck cigain. One-sixth of the membership left at the end of the first quarter to join the armed forces. The complete roster of officers left, facilitating a mid-year election. In face of disaster. Tracy did not falter. Prestige was brought to the house by President John Bodctte who edited this year's Crimson, was a member of varsity debate team, and active in dramatics; four members hold student assistantships and the presence of the finest male actor on the campus besides a versatile frosh group has helped Tracy weather the storm. Five members arc lost by graduation, the nemisis of small houses. Beyer. Pal- mer. Lane. Bierman and Wawrzyniak will leave.

VICTOR LAMAR Caezetd eMail The current school year has been a banner one for the boys who reside with- in the portals of Evans Hall. A strong frosh class of three years ago has mate- rialized into a well rounded, compact group. With this as a nucleus Evans has rapidly forged to the front in campus affairs. They found an able leader in the ma- ture Renner, an excellent and successful candidae for the prom regency in Vic Salter. This, coupled with the news edi- torship of the Days, the presidency of the Officers Club, letter winners in all sports and four to five honor roll students has brought considerable glory to Theta Sig- ma Tau. Enough has been said in praise of their annual barn dance which is a highlight of their social season. Graduation losses this year are numer- ically small. However, Kate. Buckley. Gatzke. Millane and Jackson leave. A fine group of pledges has met the fraterni- ty standards. Next year, much the same as this should be a bed of roses for Theta Sigma Tau. Top Row, left to ri ht—L.

Any fraternity boasting a leader the caliber of Don Anderson cannot be count- ed out of any picture. Andy'' as a student, an athlete and a leader is tops on the campus. He did not rest on lau- rels won on the gridiron, but led his house also in all mural sports as well. He also was proxy of the R club. There is no question. Shaler will feel the loss of their able prexy. But added to this at graduation. Don Williams, erst- while dramatist and Crimson business manager departs as does Ed Dore. Col- lege Days fashion editor and French and Art fellow. Both strong fraternity men. both leaving large holes to be filled. Shaler faces a questionable future. New prexy Len Dahm has a task ahead to keep his house together. The frosh group, while disorganized for a period this year, has potentialities. It will be Dahm’s job to develop them.

Ervin Zippel has cap- ably performed the duties of prexy this year besides being headwaitcr at the downstairs dining hall, star dash man ant Spanish fellow. Other prestige was brought to the fraternity by letter winners in 11 sports and an over-abundance of frosh numeral winners with several honor students sprinkled in. Their gangster party at Pickett is fast becoming a cam- pus tradition. West loses Secord. Pierce. Scott. Dunn. Ardziejewski. Ostrand, and Seip by grad- uation.

Smith Hall attempted to give no more stress than it merits to each phase of college life. Seventy strong—the Delta Sigs were prominent in social activ ities, scholarship, athletics, and extra-cur- ricular affairs. In the realm of campus politics Smith hall fared well. This spring fourteen seniors will receive degrees and with them go a large bulk of tiic fraternity's strength. This talented group represented Delta Sigma Psi well in the Ripon College world.

Eighteen years of serv- ice to Ripon College and again 'Coach' has presented the student body with a Midwest Conference Football champion- ship trophy. Not too much was expected of this year s football team, it had poten- tialities. “Coach knew that and it was his untiring efforts that molded that great galaxy of stars into a hard working enti- ty. At the close of the season five Ripon men were chosen to the All Midwest Hon or Team. It was under his tutoring that Teddy Scalissi rose to such heights, that Ken Miller developed into the great play- er that he was. that Keith Kuehn showed the ability to block so many kicks, and Don Anderson showed the ability to play smart football. Ripon's track team is another surprise of the season. The excellent showing they made at the Beloit relays and the two victories they have garnered over Beloit and Carroll shows that Coach Doehling against overwhelming odds has produced another winner out of what ev- eryone said would be a dismal season. GEORGE LANPHEAR . . . This com- pletes three years of coaching at Ripon lor Genial George. popular basketball mentor. His cage five this year was plagued with bad luck all season. Three veterans left to join the armed service. Ken Miller was lost to the squad at Christmas time. Despite this the cage teams coached by George have put on a fine display of skill and technique and despite repeated close losses, every game was a crowd pleaser. George also was line coach and chief scout in football as well as handling the golf team, which is undefeated this season. ROGER GROVE . . . Rog is the new- est member of the coaching staiT. Com- ing from the Green Bay Packers where he was a back field man for seven years and also experience with the Oshkosh All-Stars basketball team has taught Rog all the secrets of these sports. His frosh teams showed the results of his knowledge. Well drilled, fast, heads-up ball was played by the frosh teams, and one of the finest frosh records in years was compiled. Rog also is handling a promising bunch of frosh speedsters on the track team this year. fifty-six Way o-jj tlte Gltattup,lo tl in the Jitle Race An underdog, Monmouth grid machine sparkled to hand the Ripon Redmen a 7 7 tic. The game was played under a clear sky, and a large crowd was on hand to witness the spectacle. The locals en- tered the encounter as the favorite. Ripon started moving forward with the opening kick-off. Scalissi started the march returning the initial kick to his own forty. Miller took the ball on three tries, to advance to the forty-nine. Scal- issi went over behind some fine blocking for the Redmen s only score and Gatzke converted. The Scots threatened to tally late in the second period. With the pigskin rest- ng on Ripon s twenty-seven. Miller's punt was blocked and recovered by a Monmouth end, Normoyle. on the fifteen. Several stabs gained a yard, then Mis- savage’s pass to Green was intercepted by Miller to halt the score. A fumble recovered by Finney, followed by three speedy plays, netted the Monmouth squad their only counter. Finney plunged over for the extra point.

The thirty-eighth clash between the two teams was played before 800 shivering fans. Although both teams threatened in the (list half it was anybody’s ball game. Mil- ler returned a Gold punt 77 yards only to have a clipping penalty nullify it. A short time later Coach Means' boys re- covered a Crimson fumble on the 18 and from here Thomas, Beloit's fullback, car- ried it to the seven, but a stubborn Ripon line halted the attack. The last of the third and first of the fourth saw the action pick up as the Red men smashed over for their four goals and a conversion. Kenny Miller accounted for three trips and Sarge Peters hit pay dirt for the remainder. Gatzke convert- ed for the extra tally. The Red men showed to advantage in blocking, passing, and punting that befit- ted an inspired team. TEDDY SCALISSI Ictkly dazzled on ilic gridiron to make good his fresh- man prophesy.

Though outdowned, the Red- men were able to capitalize on a couple of breaks they created. Both Ripon touchdowns came as a result of the alert playing they exhibited. The first Ripon marker was made as a result of a Lawrence fumble which alert Chuck Dickow recovered and raced over the goal line. Carlie Galzke converted the extra point. Again in the second quarter. Keith Kuehn slipped in and blocked a Lawrence kick which was re- covered on their 20-yard line. Ken Mil- ler then raced to the ten and a pass from Ken to Molinari set up the touchdown play which Miller executed from the 3- yard line. Lawrence struck back and from then on it was largely a defensive game as far as Ripon was concerned. The line play of Palmer. Croft, Anderson and Knop was sparkling. However. Law- rence scored in the last period for its only touchdown. A final Viking threat being stopped when Ripon s powerful for- ward wall held. Though outplayed in every respect, but capitalizing on a great show of spirit and courage Ripon was not to be denied. This marked the third game this season in which Kuehn has blocked a kick which set up a touchdown and was also the best game of the year for Harry Knop.

McNcc Thirty-five freshmen answered Coach Roger Grove's call for pigskin hopefuls as the football season entered full swing. With this group acting as opponents for the varsity in scrimmage. Coach Grove began to mold a compact, aggresive group in preparation for the traditional frosh games with St. John's Military Academy and the Marquette University frosh team. The St. John's game found Ripon avenging last year's 13-7 defeat by the score of 19-0. With comparatively little practice, especially on offense, the team worked smoothly as a unit, and showed the effects of good drill in fundamentals, their downfield blocking paving the way for several long runs. The first touch- down was set up on a pass from Van Am- an to Doll and later Van Aman cracked over. Strickler, Ripon end. streaked 55 yards on an intercepted pass to score the second touchdown and the third was add- ed in the third quarter when Van Aman again scored. However, the traditional Marquette game was disastrous for the Ripon team as they were trounced 31-6 against over- whelming numbers. Seifert scored the only Ripon touchdown on a lateral from Doll. Twenty-three frosh received football numerals at the end of the season. They were: Strickler. Reckinger. Marshall. Sie- fert. Diaz. Richter. LeFevre, Cox. Olsen. McEvoy, Van Aman.. Doll. Kirchoff. No- winski, Dittbcrner, Prasil. Deeley. Ed- wards. Thompson. Guenther, Simpson and Haag. This well trained aggrega- tion should provide many capable replace- ments for the fourteen seniors who leave the varsity team this year.

The accurate shooting of Co-captain Ken Miller. Teddy Scalissi and ' Scoop” Christenson helped to build up the 28 to 13 lead that the Crimson held at the half. The Blue Devils made a late rally, scoring seven consecutive points, but the Crimson turned them back and coasted to victory. Revenge was enjoyed by Beloit later in the season on their own floor. The Red- men started out in good style, gaining an early lead. The Blue Devils finally got under way and went ahead only to have a gift shot by Frank Blanas tie the score at 18 points cit the halfway mark. Beloit came out strony in the second half to build up an eight-point lead. The Downstaters matched the Redmen's points to hold its comfortable lead. Ripon's Blanas was the outstanding defense play- er in the game. Beloit saw the score read 52 to 43 in their favor. LES ANDERSON Big and i.tiijcy.

Kenny had to finish his last Ripon College basketball season in February, a player who con- sistently played the game for all it was worth. sixty-fivt Playing heads-up ball, the Redmen dropped a close one to the Lawrence Vikings. After allowing the Vikings to take an early 14 to 3 lead, the Crimson got under way to hold a two-point advan- tage for the first period. Lawrence went ahead again in the second half, and kept the lead to a 43 to 39 victory. Scalissi and Ardziejewski tallied nine points apiece to pace the Redmen. Although held to two points. Ken iMiller was the outstanding player in the game. Before a capacity crowd, the Rcdnicn fought valiantly for victory in the last game of the season. Again the Law- rence quintet proved to be the superior team. Jim Seidl led the Crimson to an early 11 to 3 lead, but the Vikings held a one-point advantage at the midway mark. The hard fighting teams kept within two points until the last minute when the Vik- ings went ahead to gain a 41 to 38 vic- tory. Seidl's fourteen points were high for the Redmen.

IXm will undoubtedly see much action next year. sixty-six One of the best defense games of the season was witnessed in the local field- house when the strong Grinnell quintet met the Ripon Redmen. At the end of four minutes of play there was no score, due to the slowness and sluggishness, and the air-tight defense playing on the part of both teams. The 13 to 9 halftime score shows the few sucessful shots taken by the teams. Playing faster and looser in the second stanza, the Pioneers built up their lead to a 35 to 28 victory. High point honors of the game were enjoyed by Ri- pen s Jim Seidl. Using their tremendous height advan- tage. the Scarlet and Black had little trou- ble in gaining a 52 to 28 victory over the smaller Ripon quintet. Enjoying a 29 to 1 1 lead at the half, the Pioneers moved on until they were twenty-four points ahead. A scoring spree by Teddy Scalissi.

A brilliantly played first half ended with the Purple cagers on top with a six-point margin.

High point honors of the game went to T eddy Scai- issi, who made five field goals and four gift shots. Ardzicjcwski and Jim Scidi were also outstanding for the Red and White.

Groves coach. Linder the excellent tutelage of Roger Grove, the Ripon Frosh basketball team swept through a tough schedule and dropped hut one game. This year’s squad featured steady ball handling coupled with extremely accurate shooting as the high scores indicate. Against Lawrence in the first game of the season the Papooses dropped a 38-34 thriller. Only a last minute rush by Lawrence clinched the battle. Palmer “Butch” Strickler. rangy forward, was high man with 13 points followed in the scoring column by Simpson with six counters. In the next engagement at Carroll the Frosh scored a 31-28 triumph over the enemy. Strickler and Simpson again led the attack, aided by Don Whitemore and Gordon Jensen. Superior floor play by the Rptlmen decided the outcome. At Beloit the yearlings scored a 38-35 victory over the rangy and highly-touted Beloit squad. Strickler scorched the nets with 19 points on four field goals and 11 free throws. Revenge for the early season defeat was gained when the Red and White swamped the Vikings 43-32 in a very rough contest. George Doll came through with five very timely field goals and Strickler totaled 13 counters. This year’s well balanced team should furnish good material for next year's var- sity five. The 14 letter winners were Fred Allen. George Doll. Henry LeFevre, Bill Simpson. Allan Marshall. James Ohan, Dave Pfiffner. Arthur Zweifel. Palmer Strickler. John Stephenson. Don Whitemore.

Although small in numbers the Ripon team has proved itself strong in quality of personnel. Ripon got into winning strides by clip- ping Beloit in the first dual meet of the year. 672 to 63£. Ripon speedsters scored nine firsts as Wilmanns. Thuermer, Faustman. Zentner. Scalissi and Albert scored in their respective events. Ripon‘s relay team of Wilinski, Faustman. Wil- manns and Zippel scored a first in the 880 yard relay. In the next dual meet of the year Ripon again was on the long end of an 83-48 score against Carroll. Eleven firsts were scored as Zentner and Zippel sprinted to double wins. Again the crack relay team scored an easy triumph. In the following Beloit Relays, Ripon placed ninth when only part of the team competed to score 132 points. The highly-touted Lawrence team re- ceived a scare as they downed Ripon. 77-53. Zentner was the only double winner, however. Fred Wilmanns equaled the meet record in a thrilling 440 yard run. Faustman’s victory over Lawrence’s brilliant Fieweger in the high hurdles was another highlight of the meet. As the Crimson goes to press, Ripon has sent a strong aggregation to the Mid- west meet at Monmouth where Ripon ranks as a dark horse. Probable “R” sweater winners will be: Captain John Lapotka, F.

Many of these, however, reported to take part in the National De- fense Health Program and so the figures cannot he taken too seriously. Although the thinclads have not been tested under fire at this writing several of them show great promise and should be potential point winners in the Midwest Telegraphic Meet to be held in late May. This meet originally scheduled for May 6 and 7 had to be postponed due to a wet track. Most promising of the tracksters at this writing are Charles Luedke in the dashes and broad jump, Gordon jensen in the pole vault and discus throw, Jere Ho- gan in the mile and two-mile run. Don Whitmore is throwing the javelin farther than any varsity member and his throws as a frosh have been better than any in the Midwest. Best in the weights are Palmer Strickler and Art Zweifel. Bill Pieper looks promising as a high jumper, and Glenn Brown shows promise in the two-mile run. Robert Dittberner is clear- ing consistently good heights in the pole vault and should pick up some points in the javelin. Other men who remain to show that they can win points and who have worked consistently hard all year are: W. I.eFevre. W. Simposn, H. Peck, P. Abelman, E. Prasii, D. Reckinger. D. Dudcy. J.

Friedman, Ferry, A. Miller One of Ripon's strongest golf teams in years represents the Crimson squad for 1942. Coach George Lanphear selected Clyde Lynch. Eugene Ferry. Harry Leonard, William Holier, Amory Miller. Joe Evans and Richard Friedman for his team of divot diggers from 15 men who sought positions on the links aggregation. Various combinations of these men were used to see which clicked the best. Two veterans from the quartet of 1941. Clyde Lynch and Gene Perry, formed the nucleus of the Ripon golfers. Lynch and Perry were regulars from the '41 squad, and their experience has proved invalu- able. The golf greens at Tuscumbia beck- oned the linksmen to practice tri-weekly at the course. Eliminations for the four best men representing the Crimson were determined from the 18-hole play-offs held early in April at Tuscumbia. A stiff eight-game schedule of intercol- legiate matches faced the Ripon linksmen. Besides competing against other colleges in matches, the Crimson mentor, Lan- phear. entered the golfers in the Midwest conference meet held at Monmouth on May 9th. and in the state tournament played at Waukesha May 13.

S( uad Under the supervision of net captain Jack Abrams, the tennis squad has held extensive drills and practice in prepara- tion for a tough schedule. Ripon’s squad of netters is comprised of five men. Three of this number. Bill Dane, 'Sarge' Pet- ers, and Abrams ranked well in the state racquet circles, and are the backbone of the current Crimson team. Ed Levi and Bill Weingart accounted for the remaining two positions of the quintet. This duo combination was tops in freshman competition last year. The 1942 quintet of netters showed a great deal of promise. The tennis squad ranks as one of the best in Ripon’s his- tory. Swinging the racquet in the sin- gles are Abrams. Peters, Dane. Levi, and Weingart. Heading the doubles teams were Dane and Abrams and Weingart and Levi. Ripon’s intercollegiate matches included dual meets to date with two losses to Osh- kosh 1'eachers 7-0. and Beloit 4-3; St. Norberts will also send a quintet to com- pete on the Ripon courts late in May. May 9 the racqueteers competed in the Midwest tourney at Monmouth. Four Riponitcs journeyed to the Scots strong- hold to battle for net honors.

Va iAity Jletten, lAJinmiA l'he activities ot the R Club again held the spotlight throughout the sports calendar. Smooth handling and manage- ment of the important Homecoming cele- bration highlighted the R Club's festivi ties for 1941-42. The traditional Friday night torchlight parade and pep rally, plus the appearance of Foam'' Lueck, started the fireworks at Homecoming time. Con- tinuing on Saturday were the freshman skits on the square, the Homecoming ‘vic- tory paardc, the freshman-sophomore greased pole fight, and the grid battle against Monmouth at Ingalls field. Cli- maxing all the colorful events was the Homecoming dance. Very efficient com- mittees of R” Club members maneuvered the Homecoming proceedings successfully throughout the turmoil. Holding the officers' positions for the 1941-42 school term were Don Anderson, president: Ray Peters, vice president: Les Krause, secretary: Carl Garzke. treasurer. Meetings and discussions of the R Club were held at the different campus fraternities throughout the year. Funds for the club came from the bene- fits received from selling programs and refreshments at all the football games, and ice cream and candy bars at the basket- ball games. Part of the R Club finances are used to purchase medals for graduat- ing members of the 1942 class. Closing the activities for the current school year the R Club plans an exclusive banquet to he held during the closing days of May. Top Row. left to right—J. Cn lcn, J. Mitchell, K.

Fridstcin This year, as is true of every year, a large share of the responsibility of keep- ing up Ripon's famous school spirit fell to the six cheerleaders—and they did a really line job of it. At every football and basketball game, and at all the pep meetings, the cheerleaders were right there to lead the students in yells for the Red men. The group was headed by Homer Hall, the only one of the six who was among the pep-leaders of last year. It was he who. with the cooperation and help of the others planned and put over this year's many successful pep meetings. The soph- omore sisters—Dorothy and Jeanette Hot- vedt—proved capable, not only in leading yells, but in introducing popular new cheers as well. Connie Haight, peppy Frosh newcomer to the squad, added to the group's efficiency. And. to complete the six. Bill Barnhardt and Jim Fritstein turned out to be dependable members of the group. It was the cheerleaders who got the students and band together to form the torchlight pajama parades which marched through the square on nights preceding home games. Especially were they re- sponsible for planning the Homecoming torchlight parade and the bonfire celebra- tion that followed. And then. too. they led the band and students when they pa- raded to Ingalls Field before the games, keeping up the spirit with their peppy R-I-P-O-N yell. Not only were they present at every home game, but there were many out of town games at which they were also on hand to show students of other schools Ripon loyalty. stventysrvr:: RetxLp iincf, the fioqA,' 9 t La fiuAcU Seaieut Increased interest was aroused in the intramural sports this year and most of it was due to the intensified physical educa- tional program offered by Coach Doehl- ing. In basketball alone 124 boys par- ticipated and the other sports showed the same results. Touch football opened the year s activ- ities with Smith and Merriman sharing the coveted crown. Close behind in sec- ond place was West hall with four wins and two defeats. Merriman's volleyball team rode rough- shod over their opponents to capture the title with 21 wins and no defeats. The faculty presented a strong aggregation and claimed the runner-up post. Wright. West. Evans, Smith. Shaler and Tracy finished in that order. Smith's handballers swept the league and compiled a perfect record of 18 wins and no set-backs. Following Smith in their respective places were Merriman. Evans. West. Shaler. Wright and Tracy. Led by Karl Gierhahn the Wright cag- ors walked oft with top team honors in the basketball competition. Trailing Wright in order were Merriman. Smith. Shaler. Evans. West, and Tracy. A trend toward more teamwork and better organization appeared this year to make the cage sport one of the most thrilling Members of the All-School five were Gierhahn. Vernes. Scott. Friedman and Lindquist. Decidedly strong teams competed in the bowling schedule with the Merriman kcglers eking out a first place with Evans and Smith very close behind. West. Shaler. Wright and Tracy trailed along in the aforementioned order. Merriman won the hot battle for the riHe crown and barely nosed out the Tracy sharpshooters by one point. Fur- ther down the win column were Evans, Wright. Smith, West and Shaler. A tic for first place between Smith and Merriman settled the squash paddle competition. Both teams won 18 games and lost three. Shaler. Wright. Evans. West, and Tracy finished in that order. In the Smith ping-pong tourney. Merri- man walked oft' with the trophy edging the Smith team by one point. Carl Mil zer copped the singles title by downing Ed Levi while Ohan and Tollefson an- nexed the doubles championship. Shaler. Evans, Wright. Tracy and West finished thus. With only softball and track remain- ing. Merriman heads the field by 74 points. The total points thus far are as follows: Merriman. 256: Smith. 182: Ev- ans. 158: Wright, 126: West. 126: Sha- ler. 104: and Tracy, 84. seventy-eight Action on the ' Muntil fynxuit Top to bottom, left to right Action in a volleyball game . . . softball action on lower campus . . . basketball action, Cadicu and Peek on rebound “Snapper” Lynch waits for the big one . . .

With Frances Sischo acting as presi- dent: Jacqueline Brown, vice president: Patricia Peck, treasurer; Shirley Collier, secretary, the heads of the various sports helped organize intercollegiate teams and promoted participation in all sports. Enthusiasm this year in girls' athletics was due in large to the zealous work of the members and the never-ending enthu- siasm of Miss Jane Crawford, adviser. Ripon's athletic facilities were constantly being used to the best advantage by ail members. On the whole, the 1942 WAA was very successful. Many W.A.A. members answered Pat Hooper's call for soccer enthusiasts. Duf- lic began the year by winning the soccer tournament. Volleyball under the direc- tion of Jane Finley gave the girls a chance to exhibit their skills in keeping the ball in the air and Bartlett suceeded in out- playing the others. Bowling was under the supervision of Jane Comstock and the tournament was won by the Lyle girls. Basketball was managed by Jeanette Hotvedt and Har- wood was the final victors.

Dickow The Cadet Officers Club is now the most important honor organization on the campus. Originally founded to promote greater cooperation between senior army men and faculty, it has achieved that purpose, but more important, it is now serving to develop the esprit de corps of 28 aspiring second lieutenants. A general once said that the lieutenants in an army are the deciding factor in that army’s efficiency. This June. Ripon will give to the army 27 second lieutenants, men whose ability and training will make it possible for them to assume vital roles in the war effort. Carl Gatzke presided at meetings of the Officers' Club, assisted by Vice Pres- ident Clyde Lynch; Secretary-treasurer was Karl Gierhahn and Don Anderson was chaplain. Victor Salter and Ervin Zippel were elected as the junior honor members. The officers for next year will be Am- ory Miller, president; James Morrow, vice president: Andrew Vernes, secre- tary-treasurer. and John Sokoll, chaplain. Last January, the Officers’ Club sponsored the most successful Military Ball yet given on the Ripon campus. To those who question What does that prove about their military ability?” we say. It proves they can work together. Last winter it was the Mil Ball. Next winter it may be Australia, the far cast, British Isles, or . . .

Observers passing through the military department late in the afternoon wit- nessed over a dozen men practicing for a position on the rifle squad.

Perfection of 100 in any of the positions was the goal of the Ripon aggregation. R sweaters were awarded to Captain Fred Jess. Dave Faustinan, Robert Schmidt.

Gumin ninety-thru Qc'ih Iniw i National be enie Call Let's not have it said that the girls of Ripon College haven't done their bit for defense—as soon as it was announced in chapel that the Girls’ Rifle Team would be replaced by Red Cross classes, the girls turned out nearly one hundred per cent. We ll take you now to a typical Red Cross class conducted by Miss Margaret Haseltmc. The five unlucky girls who have been chosen to solve the problem of the day Eire standing in front of the class tearing their hair and feeling very sorry for themselves and the patient. The problem which confronts the class is stilt- ed by the instructor: A line man comes in contact with a high tension wire. He falls to the ground and it is found that he has a compound fracture of the right leg. a cut on his left hand which is spurting Mood and he is nor breathing. The point is for the girls to apply “their talents'' along this line until the doctor arrives. One of the girls lies down on the table and tries her best to look miserable while the other four apply first aid. They rush around midst rolls of bandages and stum- bling over splints while the poor, poor patient is lying with one leg under him and one arm flung over the table. Of course, a little thing like making the pa- tient comfortable is a trivial matter when there are so many larger issues at stake. Then follows a hot argument over who needs the most practice in applying the splints. It is finally decided while the pa- tient is slowly bleeding to death. Now that we have that matter settled, how about taking care of the bleeding? The question is. what kind of bleeding is it? Someone quickly applies pressure in the best first aid manner which is line except that it is at the wrong pressure point. Someone else comes to the rescue, how- ever and saves the patient from the aw- ful fate. Quick, girls—lesson five—you know— the artificial respiration. No one is too anxious to do this, but after a little per- suasion one of the girls finally gives in and turns the patient over by grabbing a leg and an arm. She then proceeds to climb on to the victim and after search- ing for five minutes for the floating rib conies down with full force. After a few more like that we ll need more than first aid. Don't let us disillusion yot: too much. This is just the beginning of the course. By the end of the ten weeks' period, ap- proximately thirty-five girls were award- ed Red Cross First Aid Certificates com- piling an average of 85% or better. Jean Chamberlain, with a grade of 96%. ranked highest in the class. ninety-four Mililasuf. Sali cMi jJilkfJi£i 'U inte'i Social Season The soft lights, brilliant decorations, the lilting music and the gaiety all scented much the same as when, in other years, the Military Ball brilliantly cli- maxed a sparkling winter social season. But this year, beneath the gaiety, pulsated an undertone—a throbbing undertone felt throughout the nation since December 7th. The splendor of the Grand March, form- ing beneath a glittering arch of sabers and sweeping to a crashing climax under the Scars and Stripes seemed to prefigure days to come when those same officers would he serving their country in far dif- ferent lines of duty, in active service and on far-flung shores. It hinted, too. of the places that the throngs of beautifully gowned coeds would, in the days to come, be finding in the service of a nation at war. So it seemed altogether fitting that the Officers’ Club and the Military Admin- istration of Ripon should vote to give the entire proceeds of the ball to that svorthi est of beneficiaries, the Red Cross. With this underlying purpose reflecting the un- conquerable character of a whole nation. Riponites will always remember the 1942 Military Ball and at the same time look forward to the Military Balls of a victoii- ous future. ninety-five QaAei (Djfjjicesi This year's cadet battalion commander has had a goal to live up to in the mark set by the crack battalion of last year.

So with a pair of crossed fingers and high hopes we turn to the job of compiling and piecing together the multitudinous amount of copy, the reams of identifications, and the hundreds of pictures that make up this publication. This year’s editorial board has been faced with as many problems as their are pictures in the book. A shortened curriculum raised no end of havoc with picture taking. Exactly three weeks of normal production time was cut out en- tirely. Seasoned staff editors were leav- ing for the service and shortage of mate- rials was faced, finally a decreased en- rollment and a consequent cur in budget. Through all this some mistakes have been made, but let us hasten to add that these mistakes were not directed at any one person or organization. A million thanks are due to Grace Runzheimer for the excellent art work which she contributed and her willingness to assist in any way as Associate Editor, to Hon Williams who tackled the many financial problems unflinchingly. As for the Editor-in-Chief.

This year’s informal diary theme is explana- tory in itself, a literary and pictorial re- view of a crowded year at Ripon Col- lege. Added to this is an innovation new in Ripon yearbooks—complete page ' blecdouts’ and a color theme of blue to introduce the divisions. The feature of this book, of course, is the Crimson Beauty Contest sponsored by the Crimson in an effort to create more interest in the book. That this publication of the Crimson ever became a reality is due to the excel- lent cooperation which the editor received from the members of the staff. Mounting pictures, cutting, arranging, and trimming was done under the direction of Mechan- ics Editors Bill Smallman and Peggy Ogd ie. The vast amount of identifying was done by Identification Editor Frank Dig- gles and his fine staff. Men s sports was handled by Bill Steans and women’s sports by Mary Jane Gordon. Art work was capably done under the direction of Grace Runzheimer and Shirley Collier furnished the division page script. Ten students aided the editors in compiling the writeups and to them many thanks, space is too short to mention all their names. To the whole staff, our genial photog- rapher. Fred Inversetti. to Neil Vinton, who composed the hook, and Charlie In- versetti. who printed it, to the Brock En- graving Company for their fine coopera- tion goes the heartfelt thanks of a weary editor as he types the final write-up for the 1942 Crimson.

The Kaufman and Hart smash success has been talked about and praised from one end of the country to the other. But Riponites who saw the Mask and Wig’s production of it on No- vember 14th find it hard to believe that the professional touch could add very much to the hilarious, giddy and sophisti- cated comedy presented by the college players. John Stephenson was the much-talkcd- about dramatic discovery of the year. As Sheridan Whiteside, crotchety take off on Alexander Woolcott, he brought down the house.

On March 20lh, the Mask and Wig of Ripon, under the direction of Professor Boody. presented its second triumph of the year in the revival of Kind Lady”— once a Broadway success, here. too. a smash hit. In the role of the elderly, wealthy, and kind hearted victim, Mary Hcrrics. Lanny Carey created a character that would yive Grace George, the oriyi- nal Broadway Mary Herries. a run for her money. And as the suave and artful crook, Henry Abbott, who with malice aforethought, plans to dupe, betray, and swindle his helpless benefactress. John Stephenson showed to the fullest his ver- satility and talent. Supplying the come- dy relief with his accustomed sense of humor was Norman Miehie, and adding to the sinister atmosphere of the whole play were Marilyn Fortnum and Don Williams, Cockney co-conspirators of Abbott and their slightly not-there daugh- ter. played by Ardis Hurley.

Ripon's delegation, consisting of Don Williams. Richard Kate. Bob Williams and George Williams, submitted a pro- posal forbidding unions the right to strike during a period of national emergency. However the measure was rejected after two hours of debate. While our meas- ure failed to pass the Senate, it was still a moral victory for Ripon, claims Don Williams. Our bill provoked more thoughtful discussion and received more opposition than any presented to the sen- ate. We did not enter the convention with the idea of getting the measure passed, but merely to promote deep think- ing and understanding along the labor line. Upon the defeat of their measure the local delegation passed out cigars to the opponents of the bill to show that there were no hard feelings. Besides participating actively in the floorwork necessary for the support of any measure Dick Kate was made speak- er of the last Saturday morning session and Don Williams served as a member of the rules committee. Ail technical ar- rangements for the 1942 meeting of the scantc were left in the hands of the Ripon delegation. one hundred six fyicjltt tyan. yawi JladUf. . . . tyn llwiCLil Plcuf, On February 5th and 6th at the Little Theater, the freshman class presented its traditional annual production. Fight for Your Lady. based on the RKO produc- tion of the same name, ably directed by Don Williams. Playing the pare of Robert Dcnsmore, a Broadway opera singer disappointed in love, was Bob Bruggemeyer. Serving as the means by which our hero hoped to do away with himself was the heroine. Marietta, a ref- ugee night club singer, played by Doris Olexa. Almost instrumental in taking the life of Densmore was his side-splitting Spanish rival. Spadissimo, played by Har- ry Peck.

Fmtnum One of the most memorable years in the long sojourn of Theta Alpha Phi on the campus is approaching an end. These Thespians under the tutelage of Professor H Phillips Boody have presented the stu- dents of Ripon College with three of the finest plays ever witnessed on the Ripon stage. Members distinguished themselves in the early fall when George Kaufman and Moss Hart s play, The Man Who Came to Dinner” was produced in the Ripon Theatre as a feature of the Famous Ar tists Course. It drew one of the largest crowds ever to witness a play in Ripon and certainly was one of the most popular and well received plays ever presented by Mask and Wig. The winter quarter found Mask and Wig again scoring with the play. “Kind Lady, which was followed by the smash hit George Washington Slept Here, an- other Kaufman and Hart production. Don Williams also directed the successful frosh play. Fight for Your Lady. This year’s organization was under the direction of President Ken I Ietzel. Dur- ing his regime six students were inducted into the organization. They were: Elaine Carey. Ardis Hurley. John Stephenson. Robert Albert and Louis Fleck. With this group as a nucleus Mask and Wig looks to a bright future. This year’s fine productions have set the stage for what should be a very bright future in dramat- ics at Ripon. one hundred eight ' bebate £ uoA . . Sech Vital 9-iAu i Operating under extreme handicaps di to the six-day school week and the uncer- tainty of individual draft status this year’s debate squad, despite these obstacles, made an excellent showing in intercol- legiate gatherings. Real find of the year, however, was the freshman contingent who. with a solid background of high school experience, brought many laurels to the campus. Led by Paul Borth. Hen- ry Wolf, Carl Milzer. and Hans Peter- man� . they tied with the University of Wisconsin for the annual Delta Sigma Rho honors at Madison. In Whitewater the boys argued their way to second place trailing the ”U by only one loss. Following custom of previous years. Coach Bruno Jacob and the varsity squad consisting of John Sokoll, Russell Chase. John Bodette and William Evans, made another extended debate trip, this time throughout the south. First stop was in Detroit for the National Teachers of Speech convention with side trips into Canada and then across the midwest down the Ohio and Mississippi to New Orleans. On the return trip the varsity met Lou- isiana State LIniversity, Mississippi Col- lege. the College of the Ozarks and Hend- rich and Harding Colleges, all in Arkan- sas All debates were non-decision. Biggest blow to the hopes of the varsity was the loss of John Gates to the army and Russell Chase to private industry. Both boys were convincing and sincere debaters and their going will be felt foi some time. Both varsity and freshman squads met in Bloomington in early February for the annual Illinois Normal contest and al- though no team decisions were given. Ri- pon ranked high in individual speaking awards. Standing—1). Dudey, P. Borth, U. Woif, C. Milzer, 1C. Kish. Silling—E. Iffland, II. Morsford, Prof. Jacob, V. Evan?, J.

Only last year the local chapter was operating under numerous handicaps with only two active members on its roll call, but since spring of last year its membership has swelled considerable. At present its active mem- bers number eight. John Sokoll. John Bo- dette. Howard Horsford. Simeon Galgi- naitix. James Mitchell. Eugene IfFland. William Evans. John Gates. Russell (!hase and Coach Bruno Jacob. John Sokoll wields the gavel of the presidency. John Bodette is vice president, and William Evans, secretary treasurer. Professor Bruno E. Jacob, national sccrc tciry of the National Forensic League and known widely for his active leadership in Pi Kappa Delta, serves as the faculty ad- viser to this honorary fraternity. This year s team has lived up to the graet trust placed in them as members of the fraternity; they have conducted them- selves with the courtesy and ability so necessary to those that think on their feet and have kept alive the spark of hon- est competition which points toward per- fection. Prospects for next year, allowing the draft, are very bright for Pi Kappa Delta will suffer the loss of only one of its mem- bers. James Mitchell, and possibly Eugene IfFland. However, with a strong fresh- man group rapidly earning membership we can cocnlude that this next year shall be truly a banner year. on,' hundred ten (lifiati Callere Chain, The six-day school week proved to be a thorn in the activities of the Ripon Col- lege Choir. This fine choral unit, under the direction of Prof. Harold “Skipper” Chamberlain, was aiming at a betterment of the excellent record of last year’s unit when the new school week took effect. A group of over fifty voices had begun re hearsals in September. However, with the heavy curriculum the choir was cut to thirty-six voices. A new unit plan was worked out by which each member was told in advance the exact selection to learn for each meet- ing and credit was given for participa- tion by the college. Serving as president this year was the able Pete Renner. Highlights of this year’s program were the Christmas vespers, several outstandi ng chapel programs and the final spring ves- pers program. Featured soloists were Irma Weisensel, Jean Chamberlain and Ruth Chamberlain. Also featured in sev- eral programs was the new Men’s Glee Club which was composed of male voices from the choir who participated in the bred Waring Glee Club contest. In spite of overwhelming circumstances Skipper” has done an excellent job with a small unit. The familiar opening theme of Gaines—Salutation and the new ar- rangement of our national anthem will long ring in the student’s memories. Top Rom—Seifert, S. Farrill, W. Ro cc, F. Cook, I).

The main purpose of the association is to enable coeds living on campus to govern their own hours and activities through representatives chosen by them. Each so- rority sends its president, vice president and one other representative to the meet- ings. Aside from its self-governing proce- dure. WSGA has been very active along other lines. At the beginning of the year it sponsored the first all-college social event, the annual walk-around. This is the dance which is given to afford the old and new students a chance to get ac- quainted with each other. A short time later the organization went to work on and acomplishcd the task of redecorating the womens lounge in Ingram. Also, in order to give Ripen a new pep song, WSGA sponsored a con- test open to everyone on the campus. The contest was won by Dorothy Hot- vedt of Duffie. and her pep song was introduced to the student body in chapel. At present the group is making plans for revision in the College Handbook of cer- tain parts concerning old and new women on the campus. Throughout the year meetings arc called by the president whenever it is necessary to discuss problems arising in connection with women’s hours or house rules. one hundred tnclvc Social Committee. Plattl Pa itif, 2 at L If you arc one of those unenlightened souls who believes that the Social Com- mittee is merely a group of students con- vening perhaps once a year and arbitra- rily designating to each fraternity or so- rority those coveted house parly and so- cial dates—if you really believe that that is all there is to it. you arc highly misin- formed. The Social Committee’s duties, even in normal years, are not exactly a snap. Managing every little thing so that each house and organization feels that, after all. its party docs occupy the best date o i the calendar, be it in January or June— is not the job for a small group of students, but is rather more up Super- man's alley. However, under Dean Terrill's capable guidance, the committee, composed of the social chairman of each house, has done an outstanding job. Particularly are they to be lauded this year when the installa- tion of Saturday classes, the shortening of the school year, and the necessity of limiting each house to only one party, de- veloped into Herculean obstacles. But the determined appearance of that group below is not just a pose for the camera. The new complications were faced and shortly all the varied problems of hours, Friday night parties, and Wed- nesday night socials were smoothly ironed out. Whereupon, as fate would have it. Saturday classes were abandoned for the third quarter and the whole system had to be reshuffled. Next year, we hear, due to wartime exigencies, social committees will not be so burdened. But for this past year’s work, the 1941-42 Social Committee de- serves a full share of recognition. lituk Raw left fa right—K. lulwards, S. ('oilier, J. Mill.me, J. Finl cv, J Mil- can Front Raw— ;.

Iiandwerk The Scribbler, published by the stu- dents of Ripon College for the past twen- ty years is a campus literary magazine edited for the purpose of giving students who are literally inclined, an opportunity to have their work published. The mag- azine is put out mainly for the students of the advanced writing class under the training of Dean J. Clark Graham, but is open to any student who wishes to enter work. The manuscripts entered must be strictly of the highest type as they are judged according to a definite standard. Informal meetings with Dean and Mrs. Graham at their home on Wednesday ev- enings has resulted in stories and poetry awaited by the student body. This year although the class has been small, it has not detracted from a high standard of lit- erary W'ork. The fall issue, edited by Donald A. Williams, contained short stories by Mer- lin Cotton, Dorothy Mac Hccsakkcr. Donald A. Williams, }. Clark Graham II. and Louise Priebe. Ralph Handwerk and Edw'ard Dorc contributed poetry. The second and third quarter issue, combined this year due to shortage of ma- terial. was edited by Merlin Cotton. This issue contained short stories by Dorothy Mac Hccsakkcr, Louise Priebe. Norman Michic and Merlin Cotton. Don Wil linms. editor of the fall issue, contributed a sonnet and a short story. onr hundred fourteen. lau fCafLfici Jau That Ripon College is woefully weak in providing a medium for furthering jour- nalistic ambitions of aspiring students is no secret. Thus, in an effort to bridge this gap between actual collegiate publica- tions and the curriculum. Tau Kappa Tau, local journalistic fraternity, was organized several years ago. Since then this organ- ization has grown in scope of activities and in number of members. Primarily organized to promote jour- nalism on the campus. TKT throughout the year has had speakers explain the working plan of college and national publications. Its success in this field has been amazing. Under the leadership of President John Bodette the organization has attempted to gain a national status by becoming affiliated with Alpha Delta, na- tional journalistic society, and it is highly probable that next year Alpha Delta will replace Tau Kappa Tau. Each year in recognition of outstanding freshman work either on the College Days or the Crimson. TKT awards an honorary key to the frosh who has done the most to promote greater journalism on the campus. The recipient of this year's award was Hans Petermann, fresh- man Days editor. Succeeding Bodette. who is ineligible for office because of Crimson editorship, is Louis Langpop. A fine group of initiates coupled with the incentive for national affiliation should mold this organiaztion into one of the fastest growing and most popular extra- curricular groups on the campus.

Piiebe Although its membership this year was smaller than any other campus organiza- tion. the Delta chapter of Alpha Chi Al- pha. national women's literary fraternity, made more than just a dent on Ripon s roll of activity and achievement. Dedicated to the fostering of fine writ- ing and good journalism, the Ripon chap- ter. under the guidance of Dorothy Mae Heesakker. achieved much in this direc- tion. Besides contributing to the Al-Cri, national organ of AXA, it has actively encouraged all young writers on the cam- pus. especially through the medium of the College Days. The group has also made plans to send Miss Heesakker as Ripon's delegate to the national AXA convention at Fort Collins. Colo., in June. But tis not just in this field that they shine. The annual AXA Leap Year dance is a Ripon tradition looked forward to with eagerness by the feminine sex and with hopelulness by the masculine. This year the group can proudly point to their Sadie Hawkins dance which was held during national AXA week, as perhaps the smash hit of this or any other year. Active membership includes Dorothy Mae Heesakker. president: Louise Priebe. vice president: Mary Miller, secretary treasurer; and Ruth Will. Besides those pledged in the late spring, the group in- cludes Grace Runzhcimer and Florence Warner. Miss Bagemihl acts as faculty adviser.

A lion's share of the credit for promoting a great inter- est m the new king of winter sports is due the Ripon College Ski Club. This is the youngest organization on the cam- pus. but though embryonic in nature it lias had a meteoric rise in popularity on the campus. This year, energetic John Theurmer headed this group of outdoor enthusiasts with the assistance of Vice President Dorothy Hotvcdt, Secretary Kay Klenert and Treasurer Jeanette Hotvedt. The crowning point of this year's pro- gram was the annual winter carnival which was sponsored by the ski club. Events were held in all winter sports and a plaid shirt ball climaxed the week-end activities which included snow modeling also. The queen of the winter carnival this year was Mardy Dunn who was chosen by a student vote. The club also was a member of the Central United States Ski Association and Arthur Goodman represented the club in several national ski jumping contests throughout the state and midwest. To climax a very active sports season the members all took part in a sleigh ride party in late February and a social was held afterwards. Due to the popularity of the sports they promote and the hard working group that makes up this organi- zation it appears that this organization is headed for new heights and will soon be firmly entrenched in the extracurricular program on the campus. l.rjl So R'ujht—F.

Clemens E. Lueck. public relations head, can take his choice of several titles. As Student Secretary he coordinates the efforts of an extremely efficient and hard- working student recruiting staff; as Alumni Secretary he edits the Alumnus, keeps alumni records; as Publicity Direc- tor he informs the public, via the papers of the midwest, of Ripon activities; as Doer of Miscellaneous he is absorbed in a startling number of additional jobs. The staff includes Mrs. Charles Engel- bracht. Chicago; Miss Betty Thom men. Milwaukee; Robert McDonald, at large”; Miss Ann Mitchell, office secretary; and Jim Vebeck. student office assistant. A staggering volume of mail, confer- ences by the hundreds. limitless hours of work and an abnormal expenditure of en- ergy are only a few outward manifesta- tions of that fact that activity is intense in this department, twelve months of the year.

In spite of handicaps of priority ratings on deco- rating materials and similar problems brought on by present circumstances, this Prom moved in as stately a pace as in a less hectic year. The condensed year, the crowded curriculum, the hurry and worry of war time could not prevent the junior class and its royalty. King Victor and Queen Retta, from presenting this lovely phantasy. “Colonadc Linder the Stars.” Ceres, goddess of all growing things, must have received a special invitation to that Athenian spectacle, for a provi- dentially early spring—recompence for a shortened year—greenness of the earth never found until June, and soft summer breezes, could have come from no other source. Since the ball was staged of necessity almost a full month earlier than usual, it’s a little wonder that we thank the goddess from Olympus for descending among us. The Ripon coed made full use of the bestowal, and rustling summer formals mixed with the white of the men's coats in a panorama of bright color and soft sounds made Fran Meekin’s music a true representation of his thematic Whisper- ing Rhythm' as hundreds of couples danced on under peaceful stars.

Student Social Cente i The year that is just passing will be remembered in Ripon College history as the year in which a long felt need and a dream of a century has been realized. 1'he third stage in the college building program is fast becoming a reality. This stage is a culmination of a three- fold plan which was begun with the build- ing of the new men’s dormitory, reached its second stage when the boys of Phi Kappa Pi took up residence i;i the new Mcrriman building and bursts into full being with the anticiapted completion of the Ripon College Student Social Center and Commons in July. Into this beautiful building has been molded all the architectural skill and practical workmanship the contractors could muster together. Auler, Jensen and Brown of Oshkosh have been the archi- tects. This beautiful new building will become a part of the entire college scheme both aesthetically, for it is of the same stone as Merriman and the new dorm, and physically for it will be the radiating center of student activities. This new edifice raised at the cost of SI50.000 will have a dining hall which will have acommodations for 350 diners and will handle 550 banquet guests. One wing will house the student offices of the Crimson and the College Days. The oth- er will be taken up with the offices of the student secretary. Clemens E. Lueck. For the most part the basement of the building will he made into a recreational center for students. A game room, soda fountain, book room, and a smoking room are in- cluded in the present plans. The main entrance will front in the direction of In- gram and Smith Halls. 'Phis beautiful landmark is indeed a tri- bute to the far-seeing board of trustees, to the always forward-looking President Silas Evans, and to the complete coopera- tion of the faculty and administration. To these groups the student body owes a debt of gratitude beyond bounds. A feeling of regret will be felt by returning alumni as they voice silent appreciation of a building that was but a dream of the fu- ture to them. To the present generation of students it is a dream come true. The intimate college-' has been made more compact an entity by this valuable addition to the physical plant. The prob- lem of dull college week-ends will be solved to a great degree. Ripon has in- deed approached the epitome of college physical plants.
