This may seem unique in dedications, but the size and influence of this post-war group war- rants at least this bit of recognition. During this CRIMSON year there were thirty-eight married students at Ripon, and their children totaled at least seven. Ripon will not easily forget this group, nor will these married families easily forget Ripon. As we dedicate the 1949 CRIMSON we are also thinking of the fact that the married student is destined to become a rarity once more on the campus of a college of Ripon's size, and so, before they disappear from our campus the CRIMSON would like to say Hats Off to the married student and his family and may their children be Ripon grads. Administration t Build 771-e pfzedlicfenf af engage One of the more dynamic personalities at Ripon College is its president, Dr. Clark G. Kuebler. He is the liaison agent between the administration, faculty, and students, and it is through his guidance that the intellectual, spiritual, and social progress of Ripon Cola lege is inspired. His many appearances as a speaker and educator have spurred the Second Century Program and have made him a popular figure throughout the country. The leadership of Ripon College is Well invested in the abundant knowledge, char- acter, and dignity of Dr. Kuebler. EDWARD A. TENNEY Dean of the College It is through Dean Edward A. Tenney that all academic phases of the college are administered. As a strong proponent of the ideals of liberal arts, Dean Tenney is well qualified to guide the educational policy of Ripon College. In addition to his administra- tive duties, Dr .Tenney is also a capable head of the English department. MARGUERITE H. WICKENDEN Dean of Women WILLIAM I. PETERMAN Dean of Men Dean Wickenden and Dean Peterman deal with any problems concerning the social and group life of Ripon students. It is with the deepest interest and consideration that these two campus personalities counsel the students in their stay at Ripon College. Dean Wickenden is also an instructor in Romance Languages and Dean Peterman is Assistant Professor of Music and conducts the choir.

' Football ' Homecoming ' Classes ' Fraternities and Sororities To the students at Ripon College, fall is a very active season and its physical aspects make it the best in the eyes of many. Fall means many things. New friends are made and there is a return to many old friendships. There is the Homecoming celebration with its bonfire, decorations, floats, parades, pole fight, and returning alumni. Classes begin again and students work hard to Ht in the many fall social events with their studies. Fall means a return to fraternity and sorority life for the upperclassmen and pledging for the freshmen. But above all, fall means football. When the rest of the students come to school they find that the team has already practiced for days. This practice continues at a tremen- dous pace until the last game has been played. Fall brings thrilling games and cheering crowds, for with fall comes football ..., mm an fn w W ms mx ma E wa 5 as Mil Him an H W ws -:mga awake mam: mah ,uw 7: 45- Suassw m+m'ssami : rm www ms.Lm,sgp1-' .Wm . gg a sa , E H Q p ig, K.. ms E. .

An undis- puted Midwest Conference crown was won and live Redmen were honored with Hrst team berths on the all-conference eleven. The powerful Ripon team defeated all six league opponents and sulfered reversals only at the hands of Bradley Tech and Carroll College. The Bradley University team opened the 1948 season by walloping Ripon, 34-O. ln the next game, Ripon entered conference play by subduing Monmouth, 7-6, Park I V , , Z ., , Ex E Lewis Fahrner Larry Marley Park Berry Mqqjww Earl Berry drove over from his fullback slot to score in the final moments of the game. The following Saturday, Knox fell before the red menace with Don Clelland twisting 54 yards to a touchdown. Two touchdown passes by Fahrner to Peters and later to Marley made the final score 18-0. Zamzow jim Helf In the next tourney, Beloit was humbled by the speed and power of the Ripon eleven. In the first quarter Redmond caught a pass in the end zone, Tom Callen scored on an end zone fumble by Beloit, and Fahrner sneaked over into pay dirt. Taking to the air, Fahrner tossed to Weiske and to Marley, eil 3 Don Clelland discourages a tackler as he circles end to pick up yardage for Ripon and Linden connected with Zimmerman. Marley completed the rout by going over for the seventh touchdown. lack Babb stole the spotlight by kicking sevcn consecutive con- versions in this game, making the score 49-7. The powerful Lawrence Vikings were tamed somewhat by a 19-6 trouncing. This game of the year proved to be the climax to a steadily improving Ripon eleven. Both teams hit hard and played exceptional ball. Sensational catches by Redmond and Peters, and Berry's drives were sufficient to give Ripon another win. In a real thriller, Carleton was downed, 20-13.

No other campus event retains so much alumni interest and student interest or re- quires so much preparation as Ripon's annual Homecoming. The campus overflows with excitement as the R-Club enlists the students in making ready for the Homecoming week- end. Freshmen gather wood for the huge bonhre and guard it and the campus against our rivals: they decorate the gym for the dance, and make torches for the parade in which they will march in their pajamas. The sophomores find a pole and plenty of grease for their fight with the frosh, and all upper- classmen decorate their houses and construct a float for the parade. A queen and court are chosen to reign over the celebration, houses prepare for alumni banquets, and the team practices and practices, constantly striving for perfection in every play. The finishing touches are put on everything and Homecoming explodes . . . 17 QQ 1 :IR Parkhurst W,-ight 1-1311 7fze Jfamecamin-9 Goan' Lois floeft Fanny Matlrc1's Kathy Kellner Claire Mastiliz' Helen Popovich, Queen l 1 8 Pi Tau Pi Evans Hall Er fgfaisffl 1 ' Evans Hall Merriman , 19 Omega Smith Wright Hall Duffie 20 Independents Harwood Pi Tau Pi Alpha 21 Delta Sigma Psi, on auction at Homecoming Greased-pole Hgh!

In the Hrst game, at Lawrence, Bill Brennan ran 35 yards for a touchdown, fol- lowed later by Ralph Martin, who intercept- ed and ran the ball lifty yards for the second tally. With Ripon leading at the half, Law- rence rallied and evened up the score wtih two touchdowns, the second coming in the closing minutes of the game on a series of short passes. Final score: Ripon 13, Law- rence 13. The only other game was played on home grounds against a scrappy Beloit team. Ralph Martin and Gladwin Born shared touchdown honors, with Martin scampering sixty yards for a score and Born hauling down a 35-yard pass in the end zone. Final score: Ripon 13, Beloit 6. In addition to a splendid season of compe- tition, the freshman team should receive well deserved praise for hours of scrimmage which helped shape the Ripon varsity into a cl1ampionship team. I McCourt, Lamb, Pickard Cross Country The fall cross country team, under the competent coaching of Gil Hertz, ran hard this year but was unable to overcome the fact that it was the first season for the entire squad and experience was lacking. Main- stays of the Ripon squad and potentials for a much stronger squad next season are lim Lamb, lim Pickard, Iohn Messer and Henry Herbig. The first contest was a dual meet with the University of Wisconsin which the Badgers won, 50-15. Next, at Lawrence, Ripon's dis- tance men were forced to drop another conf test by a score of 45-15. In the last meet of the season, with Lamb placing third, the Redmen made their best showing against Beloit, but were overpowered, 36-18. dim Ufzgaafgvzfifiaaa As the fall season draws to a close, the freshman begins pledging and is introduced to fraternity and sorority life at Ripon. He soon finds out that the fraternity will become the center of his life and from this will eman- ate his social life, intramural activities, his closest friendships, and a great deal of his relations with the administration of the col- lege. Very few differences exist between the Greek Letter groups at Ripon and their fundamental purposes are the same. There is a strong but healthy rivalry between houses and a complete absence of bitter feelings. These local fraternities are free from out- side influence, remain an integral part of the college, and still give many of the benefits of national organizations. The fraternity and sorority members at Ripon are justly proud of their respective groups but Ripon as a whole is very proud of its fraternity and sorority system. ?

' Organizations A winter in Ripon can only be understood by those who have experienced it. The cold weather moves in and is reluctant to leave, the snow piles high, and the gray atmosphere is conducive to little more than hard work and study. Familiar sights are students perilously sliding down the walk to the Union, and bands of men trooping in single Hle from the group of windy barracks called Siberia, Nevertheless, there are those days when the sun comes out, the wind subsides, and the students go skiing, skating, and tobogganing. The social life is better than ever, and the sports move indoors. There is basketball, wrestling, and a number of intramural sports. Winter is the time of the large formals, the Holly Ball, the Military Ball, and the Inter- Sorority formal. The R.O.T.C. moves in- doors and prepares for Mil-Week, and the many campus organizations are hard at work. lil- . 71. giffwf- wvu , rn, f . . , il- '-.+ x W- ss n kxxmo . W 1 vi.

Ripon Hnished seventh in conference play. The Redmen displayed brilliance on occasion, but were never able to shake off the black cat nemesis. The campaign opened at Madisoii with the University of Wisconsin team tram- pling the Ripon visitors 66-36, before 11,- 500 enthusiasts. St. Norbert and Carleton allayed any rejuvenating programs by Coach Gil Hertz, and administered two additional defeats. The congestion of early season defeats was temporarily stopped at Oshkosh with Elmer Duerst's Hne rebounding netting him 18 points and a 66-62 victory. Ripon went down before Lawrence and a Western Michigan crew, but came back to beat pow,- crful Wayne University, aided by a 29- point outburst by Weiske. On a disappoint- ing tour, Ripon dropped tilts to Cornell and Grinnell, but topped a plucky Coe team. Thereupon, the Redmen yielded to St. Nor- bert again and edged Carroll in an over- time battle. lim Mendylce arched 10 looping push shots to insure victory. In two meetings with Beloit, the Redmen refused to be stampedecl and the Buccaneers bucket brigade was faced with two of their toughest games in conference play. Mon- mouth, Lawrence and Cornell were sent reeling homeward aided by the consistent team play of Bob Kloss, but Ripon then bowed out to Oshkosh and Knox. ln the final game of the season, Cornell wilted on the local premises, and Ripon once again felt the distinction of the unanimous nomina- tion of Weiske to an All-Conference rat- mg.

Gagamgalfiamt Membership in an organization and par- ticipation in extracurricular activities is an integral part of the life of a college student, and at Ripon everyone has an equal chance in the many campus organizations. lt is pos- sible for a student to Ht these activities to his personal need, and apply them to his future work. Ripon has organizations which are adaptable to any interest or phase of ecl- ucation. In sports there is the R Club, WAA, or Winter Sports Club. Student government is handled by the Student Council, the WSGA and the Interfraternity and Sorority Councils. Those interested in politics, debate, dramatics, science, language, or philosophy, may become members of the Poly-Stats, Pi Kappa Delta, the Ripon College Theater, Science Club, Language Club, or participate in the Religious Roundtable. Those who like to write Find an outlet for their talents in the College Days, Crimson, or Scribbler, and those who are musically minded are in the band or choir.

The l949 officers of Ripon's choir are George Lor-cl, president: Mary Ellen Brodie, secretary: Richard I-Iader, treasurer, and Mary Kuhnert, librarian. I I 7lze Ripon Gclleqe Bam! Mamice Wea! - eamfuciaa The Ripon College Band was founded in 1946 under the direction of Maurice :Need What this small group lacked in equipment it made up in ability and ambition. Since the -date of its organization, the band has grown until it now numbers nearly fifty members. New uniforms were obtained last year and this added needed color to the group. The band presented some very spec- tacular shows at football games, traveled to Appleton to perform at the Lawrence game, and supplied spirit at basketball games. The band presents an average of two formal concerts a year and fine performances of the best music in band literature, from the early masters to boogie, have made the programs of this organization occasions that are antici- pated alike by students and musicians. The officers for the band were Williani Spaulding, president: Michael Txnkham, vice-president: Ioanne Miller, secretary, and Marilyn Halbe, treasurer. I de felcgiaue zocmaftaffe The Religious Roundtable evolved from a small group of students interested in various aspects of religion: its contemporary prob- lems and possible solutions as well as its ap- plication to everyday living. Realizing that there were many students on campus who might also want to discuss some of these problems, this committee decided that a roundtable manner of presentation would gain maximum participation of all those interested. The Roundtable was designed as an inter-faith group, and discussion of dog- mas was discouraged by careful program- ming in favor of that which had universal appeal. This World of Science, What Place Re- ligion? Living in the Real Wo1'ld, Springboards to the Aesthetic, and Good Without God? are a few typical programs presented by the group this year. The panels we-re composed of faculty members and stu- dents, and were followed by open discussion periods. The Roundtable instigated the first World Student Service Fund drive on campus, and in cooperation with the Student Council raised S232 for the cause. Gladys Blodgett, social service chairman for the Roundtable was chiefly responsible for the success of the drive. Other officers for the year were Iim Erd- man, president: Lois Horn, vice-president: and Helen Popovich, secretary-treasurer.

Women '4 1455565414 ,+444ac6aZc'aa Along with such typical sports as volley- ball, basketball, badminton, soccer, archery, tennis, and rifle, this year the W.A.A. spon- sored the Orchesis Club, a modern dance or- ganization. This new branch of W.A.A. proved to be very successful an-cl gave an excellent performance of modern dance at a tea for all women students sponsored by the association. As in other years the girls traveled to Mil' waukee Downer for a field hockey play day, and attended other play days and tourna- ments at various small colleges. The purpose of W.A.A, is to promote a spirit of good sportsmanship, friendship, and cooperation. It also serves in giving girls an outlet for their excess energies and a chance to improve their skills through interest and enjoyment. The officers this year are Kay Thomas, president: Helen Wylie, vice-president: Claire Mastilir, secretary: and Ianet Edgar, treasurer. The R club is composed of those students who have won major R's in varsity sports, and is an important service organization on campus. The R Club traditionally handled all phases of the Homecoming celebration, members sold tickets and ushered at athletic events, and this year the club originated Carl Doehling Day - a day set aside in observance of Carl H. Doehlings' 25th year 6015 as hcad football coach at Ripon College, Officers for 1949-50 were chosen and arc: Dean Lemke, president: Bill Henke, vice- president: Pete Orvis, secretaryg and Don Wachlin, treasurer.

The club was founded for the purpose of creating a non-academic interest among the students for the pure and applied sciences. The Radio Club and the Photo Club are branches of the main o-rganizatio. The Radio Club conducts instruction in radio theory and construction, and in sending and receiving Morse code. The Photo Club has aroused interest in ama- teur photography on the campus by sponsor- ing contests. The main club is divided into departments of Chemistry, Biology, Mathe- matics, ad Physics. Throughout the year, the Science Club sponsored educational programs at its meet- ings. Dr. Barker spoke on l'lCh61DlC3l War- fare, Dr. And-rews discussed Vocational Possibilities in Scientific Fields, Dr. Priest- ly talked on Nuclear Energy, and Mr. Braun spoke on Biological Techniques. Two open-house meetings were given, with each of the departments providing experi- mental displays of gene-ral interest. The Atom Energy Symposium was originated, und sponsored in part by the Science Club. Louie Lanzer was president of the group. Willard Lawrence, vice-president, Barbara Wehringer, treasurer: and Iohn Koch, Frances Hockenhull, Elizabeth Carman, and Herbert Bagemehl headed the Chemistry, Biology, Mathematics, and Physics depart- ments, respectively. Michael Tinkham was president of the Radio Club, and Frank Backes, president of the Photo Club. Plano, Tremper, Maley '7fLe pafifidam cancf Sfalaimen 0046 The Poly-Stat Club was very active this year in sponsoring and organizing the mock national convention and mock election at the college. Various members took .roles of prominent candidates and the campus was taken over by those making campaign speeches, with their placards, torchlight meetings ,etc. The clu-b was also instrumental in bringing Captain Michael Fielding to the Ripon Campus for discussions concerning international relations. Barrie Tremper, lack Plano, and lim Ma- ley served as president, vice-president, and secretary of the Poly-Stats for 1948-49. Tremper becomes Henry Wallace to give a vivid speech from the Birthplace of the Republican Party BIRTHPLAGE 9' OF THE WHS 'iifii J 87 pring Is Here . Ver-Adest . Track, Golf, Tennis . junior Prom . Graduation There is a certain poetic beauty about a spring at Ripon and it serves as a crowning glory to a cold winter and a hard years work. The rain washes away the last evi- dences of snow, and the sun appears to bring forth flowers and students. Trackmen emerge from their indoor workouts, golfers are off to Lawsonia, and the tennis team to Barlow Park. Sunbathers appea-r on the roof of Bartlett, and there are many picnics at Green Lake. Rehearsals are in progress for Ver- Adest, the annual spring musical written and presented by Ripon College students. The Iunior Prom comes as a finale to the year's social events and the students begin to rea- lize that another year at college is coming to a close, for some their last. The seniors eagf erly await graduation clay, but at the same time there is hesitant feeling coming over them at the thought of leaving Ripon. There is a realization of how wonderful life at Ri- pon really is ancl people hate to see the year draw to a close when spring is here , . . 4 wg., .
