Muss Jane Crawford, left to become a member of the Red Cross staff ov- erseas. Now, with the small num- ber of men on campus, Coach Carl Doehling was able to lead the girls’ classes. Courses in gymnastics, tennis, golf, softball, and archery were of- fered. Classes were all scheduled for Tuesday and Thursday which are the lightest days for the un- derclassmen. new girls in helping them decide on what to bring to college and to acquaint them with traditions and activities they would participate in while at school. Miss Cunmggim's art classes ob- tained not only fundamental knowledge, but also practical ap- plication of that knowledge during the year. One of the first projects carried on by the classes was to make posters for USO dances and other school activities. Shortly aft- er the beginning of the year, they concentrated their efforts on redec- orating the office of Dean Cun- niggim in List building. They su- pervised and advised as to the col- or scheme and other technicalities with which they became familiar. I)r. L. W.

The game was marked with fre- quent miscucs and only the failure to connect on set-ups kept the score from «wring.

Remember? Dear Joe . . I had «omo time so titoughi tliat I’d take advantage of it and write to you. As you probably know, quite a tew of the Ixjys received their small hut significant gold Kars, Guess I should name the future generals for you. It seems that Nick Scull, Bob Ruff, Don Lawson, Boh Zent- ncr. Dim Young, Bob Birgc, Bud Vidlcr, Bill Bossier, Jim Marshall, Rollic Meiners, Kermit Guenther, l'Vank Hall, Bill Holier, Vic La- mar, Norman Mtchic, Carl Milzer and Am Miller wore the fortunate ones. Then, too, we have those fel- lows who are in the process of winding up their training in the Army Air Forces Pre-flight school at Maxwell Field, Ala. Fred Allen, John Stephenson, Lloyd Hansen and Wally Hclmhoiz are in this classification. Some of our fellows paid the supreme sacrifice by giving their lives in defense of our country. Lt. Johnnie Maynard was killed in an airplane crash in Colorado. Lt. Hamid Honshu is a prisoner of war in Germany. He is a wing com- mander of a Flying Fortress. A great number of the felfows are serving overseas. Pfc. Walter Walker is serving in Italy, Pvt. Bob Fox is on duty in Italy, Wal- ter Gleason in England, Lt. Geo. Wilke has been keeping a pretty tough schedule in the south Pa- cific. Capt. Charles Crocker re- turned to a rest camp in the States after serving in the Mediterranean area, in North Africa, Sicily and Italy where he had four German planes to his credit and where he was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross, and George Haddi- can is doing his iKst on foreign shores Perhaps I have missed some of the fellows who fully deserve to be mentioned in this column. I'm jrorry, Joe. .. And life goes on . . «1 do we ,. . and so do you . . Here's hoping that by the summer of next year we’ll all be together.

Just a few short months ago we packed our sweat- ers and skirts, cords and plaid shirts and headed for the hill. We were amazed at the changes and the abundance of khaki those first few days. We resented the intru- sion of the army into our hallowed domain. Gradually, though, we ac- cepted and welcomed them to our campus. With an increased feeling of cordiality between the two groups, Ripon once more became the friendly college. The halls of In- gram rang with laughter and spir- ited conversations during ten min- ute breaks. There were sorority so- cials, the League formal, the Inter- sorority dance and informal Union jive sessions. The Diamond ball, Sadie Haw- kins dance, and sorority Ivni.se par- ties dominated our social life sec- ond quarter, but who can forget Saturday nights at the Ripon with Lcnz calling numbers by the hour, Sunday afternoon dinners at the Grand View, snowball fights with CADENCE . .

There were hours of final cram- ming before exams and a multitude of library jaunts to remind us we were in an institute of learning. This quarter we settled down to a manlcss (well, practically) cxis- istence, but found little time for boredom. We chased to the post- office four and five times daily, wrote our nightly letter and plan- ned summer trips to Missouri and Jersey. We speculated on Ripon s future, and did our best to insure it by playing hosts Friendship week-end. The Apollo choir, the open house afterward and the Mil- waukee trip will be long remem- bered. Sororities took on special meaning and importance and they entertained their members lavishly with parties, banquets and picnics.
