Thru the years the unfaltering support of the Ripon community has unconsciously become an integral part of life on this campus. In turn, Ripon College has endeavored to bring to her community the finest in cultural and educational opportunities. To the proud history of cooperation between the Ripon Community and Ripon College and to the promise of continuer! sup- port the 1961 Crimson is respectfully dedicated. The corporate seal of a college becomes the one outward symbol embodying the proud history and traditions which have developed over the years. The Ripon Col- lege seal, created upon the founding of the school in 1857. was altered three years ago by the administration. The stars that appear on either side of the seal were re- placed by the numerals 1851 in an effort to place greater emphasis upon the long history of the college. 'Flic seal stands today as a symbol of the history, traditions, and integrity of the liberal arts education as presented at Ripon College. 6 EAST BUILDING ADMINISTRATION AND FACULTY FACUL TY APARTMENTS . PINKHAM Like a giant oak tree, Ripon College has stood on the Wisconsin prairie through more than one hundred winters of American history. With roots deep ir. the past, it has grown strong in character as well as in size and sen ice. Ripon is more than a collection of buildings wherein professors teach and students learn It is greater than the sum of its parts and stands for something by itself. Ripon stands for Freedom. - - - It shows the world we believe men should be free to educate their young as they see fit. It shows that we believe man must be free to improve himself for his own sake and, therefore, for the good of all mankind. It shows that we believe freedom is the key to the salvation of man. Ripon stands for the Truth. - - - Its very existence as a private college devoted to the free and open search for and transmission of Truth marks Ripon for all men to see that there arc still places on this earth where Truth reigns supreme. Ripon stands for Morality.------It is a guardian of conscience, of the moral spirit. It preserves man’s conception of what is right and what is wrong, what is just and what is virtuous. It reassures the people by its very existence that men shall learn not only the recorded facts, but the higher values in life which count more than knowl- edge and which give deeper meaning and purpose to our lives. In these times - - - in any times, we need institutions like Ripon to be the citadels of our conscience. l i]xm stands for Progress - - - a symbol of optimism - - - a reassurance that life will progress through the never-ending flow of educated youth. Though there may be war - - - even civil war and revolution, there is eternal hope, in part, because Ripon College stands devoted to the unbiased education of youth. Ripon stands for the Preservation of Knowledge. - - - The accumulated thoughts and records of man are deposited here in books anc! minds. Good and bad. the story of man on earth, indeed of the earth itself, and the universe around us is housed here and is transmitted from generation to generation. Our college is at once a vital part of the community and yet a part from the com- munity. Both must be. As an institution. Ripon reflects the community, but, at the same time, transcends ir. records it and leads it. Although frequently judged on other grounds, the true measure of a college is what it stands for. This, of course, is another way of saying that a college is what its people were, arc and will become. 9 DEAN OF THE COLLEGE ROBERT P. ASHLEY 10 DEAN OF MEN DAVID L.

Mr. Price, a graduate of the University of Michigan and a student at Yale University, now on official leave of absence, is the advisor to student union programs. Origi- nally apjx inted to advise and develop more fully the activities centered in the student union and to assist the students in the formation of additional programs, Mr. Price has found much of his time devoted to personal counseling and acquaint- ing himself with the various social and fraternal organizations on campus. In this capacity he was appointed advisor to Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity last fall. Mr. Price's position is unique in that he is a member of neither the faculty nor the administration but is devoted solely to the student body. The need for such a posi- tion has been shown in the past and Mr. Price's efforts this year have demonstrated how capably he has met this need. 32 I % X CLASS OFFICERS RICHARD LOUIS J NORBERT STBNBACH KAREN SCHNEIDER DON LINDSEY ALLEN Lena.

It ha? been in existence for seven years. The function of the court is to judge and sentence student body disciplinary cases that arise during the year. The court consists of ten members with representatives from the sophomore, junior, and senior classes as voting members. The members arc appointed by the outgoing judges; each member serves a term corresponding to the length of time he remains at the college. The disciplinary actions taken by the court are in conjunction with the policies of the administration ar.d faculty. The Dean of Women and Dean of Men scire as the or- ganization's advisors. Under the direction of Darrell Johnson, President, the court has been an efficient and respected organization. ROW . K. Alderman. J. Gruber, P. McElwcc ROW 2. A. Jarrcau, E. Tomczyk, R. Gerlach, II.

Through the Council are coordinated such groups as the Union Board, Student Court. Cai Committee. Homecoming Committee, and the Orien- tation Committee. The Council also budgets money for thirteen additional student organizations. This year the Council took great strides toward achieving its purpose of student representation. At- tendance at Council meetings improved, the Council secured positive action concerning the bookstore problem, organized a Pep Committee to coordinate all campus pep activities, transferred the Homecom- ing Dance from the “R” Club to the Union Board and Homecoming Committee, and ran and organized the Midwest Conference Student Government Con- vention. Still under consideration were proposals that fraternities hold open houses on Sunday afternoons, that a freshman register be drawn up. and that the Council join the National Student Organization. In addition to these special proposals, the Council con tinued to budget organizations, to supervise Home- coming and Orientation, to handle freshman hazing under a monitoring committee, to run the One Fund Drive, to sponsor buses to Fond du lac for vacations, and to award the scholarship trophies. 62 K.

ORIENTATION The purpose of the Orientation Committee is to provide the freshmen and trans- fer students with an enjoyable introduction to the academic and social customs and institutions of the college, and, primarily, to their fellow students. This year chair- man Curt Rogers and co-chairman Doug Seator. together with their 29 member committee, planned and executed a program noted for its industry and effective- ness. Arriving on campus two days before the new students, the committee, under the direction of Ram Pankey and Doug Seator, was allowed the necessary time to prepare a Reception Day unequaled in warmth or in the efficiency with which this second largest class was settled in its new surroundings. Interspersed with the usual proficiency and psychological tests, meetings with the deans and other college offi- cials, were the annual activities which make Orientation Week an experience in itself. Lawsonia Day and the subsequent “mixer,” led by co-chairmen Peggy Mc- Elwee and Jerry Mugerditchian. proved to have just the informal atmosphere needed for relaxation and the making of new friendships. Sue Arnold and Cody Welch turned the Union into a night club and gambling room for an unusually good Casino Party. Meanwhile, Karen Schnieder and Dick Papke were adding in- novations to an always popular Sock Hop. One aspect of the program which has always been neglected is the Activities Orientation. T his year Rarbara Johnson and Tim Mahoney produced a program resulting in interest far exceeding the expecta- tions of the participating activities. The whole 1960 Orientation program was characterized by co-operation and in- novation, factors which led to its total success. 64 ROW . M. Trcpanier. D. Buck, P. Bucher, N. Hutt, F. Horr, N.

HOMECOMING COMMITTEE The policy of the 1960 Homecoming Committee was “Think Big,” and the policy resulted in one of the biggest and best Homecoming sever seen at Ripon. There were many new innovations added to the traditional activities. Souvenir badges were sold to students, alumni, and townspeople. Watson Street was decorated with red and white Hags hanging from overhead wires, and the downtown merchants joined in the celebration by adorning their windows with Ripon pennants and red merchandise and bunting. The weekend had a theme, too, — “On the Warpath.” All of the parade floats and house decorations were based on variations of this theme. Homecoming also marked the first marching appearance of the Redinen Marching Band, which led the Saturday parade, and also performed during the halftime celebrations at the foot- ball game. The traditional bonfire was restored to the Friday evening rally, and was viewed by a crowd of fifteen hundred spectators. On Saturday morning the freshmen were unsuccessful in their attempt to capture the flag at the top of the greased pole. In the afternoon there was the football game with Cornell College, with over three thousand people filling Ingall’s Field to sec the game. Climax of the weekend was the annual Homecoming Dance held in Memorial Gymnasium Saturday evening. Several hundred students, alumni, and their friends attended the dance. The success of this year’s Homecoming activities is due to the effective operation of the Homecoming Committee under their officers, Paul Baebler, chairman; Jim Lane, co-chairman; and Carol Pickhardt, secretary. 65 UNCIL ROW I: J.

M IIMTER-FRATERNIT | The Inter-Fraternity Council, the binding force ol the Ripon College iratermt system, inaugurated one of the maA successful rush programs in recent jPars during 1960. Willi piesident B« h I V:. in Kuehl, Secretary Tom Herrick, and treasurer Darrell Johnson, this year’s Council strengthened!die rules adopted by last year’s Councjfr and added new rules where experience dictated. The Coun- cil also discussed the possibility of expanding the Riponfraternity system. Also in- cluded under the supervision of the Imer-Fraternity Council arc such things as Help pek, pledge programs, representatives to the national Inter-Fraternity Conn- , and the general welfare of the Ripon lraternitv system.

Willson, the Ripon College Choir lias provided much enjoyment for the campus and community. Joined by an enthusiastic freshman group, the choir gave its first performance in November with a sacred symphony for brass, double choir, organ, and chil- dren’s choir by Gabrieli. In December Bach’s “Mag- nificat” was presented to a large audience along with four Christmas carols arranged by Robert Shaw. Springtime found the choir very active as they began with a spring concert of Great Choral Masterpieces. During the Fine Arts Festival the music and drama departments collaborated in presenting “John Brown’s Body” by Benet. Then in May the choir gave a concert for the Wisconsin Congregational Conference in Green Bay. To wind up the year, the choir presented at Baccalaureate, the “Cherubic Ilymn” of Howard Hanson which was a powerful and exciting modern work. 60 P. Bock. A. Jarreau, D. Ferrand, I) Obcrholtzer. INDIGOS II has been a little more than a year now since the Indigos first had occasion to sing together during the after-dinner hour in the lounge. At that time they had no idea the) would be working regularly together as a group. However, they did like singing together and the progressive sound they made. And so it was that they formed their group and began having scheduled rehearsals. Among the functions they have sung for arc “Night on the Town ’ “Upperclass Stunt Night, Union Board gatherings, Spring Sing, and are now appearing at Tuscumbia Country Club on weekends. The Indigos and their progressive sound are truly a new and welcome innovation in music on Rip- on’s campus and wc wish them luck. SCOTCHMEN Tile Scotchmen began in the way so many such groups begin: with several fellows juit sitting around harmonizing at the fraternity house. The group solidified in the second semester of the 1938- 1959 school year and consisted of Jon Mills, Jack Parker, Howie Dahlkc, and Jim McKay. Howie graduated in ’59. but continued to appear inter- mittently with the group until he went into the Army. Jim McKay graduated in 1960 so the pres- ent group consists of Jack and Jon. The group got its start by singing at the Re- publican House. They arc much indebted to Mr. Clarence Dahlkc for the start he gave them there. Since that time, they have had numerous engage- ments at the Republican House, fraternity parties, Stunt Night, other area night spots, and a week s stay at the Fleetwood in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Jack and Jon are currently appearing every Satur- day night of the school year at Tuscumbia Coun- try Club, the area's top night club, presenting their inimitable interpretations of old and new folk songs to a large, appreciative group of col- lege students and townspeople. J. Parker, J. Mills 69 After a few years absence of a band program on the Ripon College campus, the enthusiasm and support of students and faculty alike made possi- ble the reorganiation of such an activity this year. Under the able leadership of Mr. Ralph Ga- briel. who came to Ripon from Vanderbilt Uni- versity. the hand did much to enliven school spirit by participating in prp rallies and home football games. Homecoming and Parents’ Day festivities pro- vided oportunities to show the importance of a band in building college spirit. At halftime of the Parents' Day football game, the band presented a show entitled, “Music Our Parents Listened To.” The band show featured the music of Tommy and Jimmy Dorsey, and the music was accom- panied with appropriate field formations. During Homecoming Weekend, the hand par- ticipated in the Friday night bonfire, led the parade Saturday morning, and at half time gave the first band show Ripon College has been in sev- eral seasons. On December 18th, a concert of Christmas music was performed and the college choir col- laborated with the band in concluding the pro- gram with a medley of Christmas Carols and The Hallelujah Chorus. Strong student support was noted in the large audience. The program ranged from classical to popular music and encompassed composers from Bach to Gould. The band. 43 members strong, practices 3 times weekly in East Building. On Mondays, the ROTC department allows the male band members dis- missal from drill for band rehearsal. Another concert is scheduled in the spring. With the continued support of the student body, the band expects a successful future. mo -UT1 7k ROW I: S. Buhrman, M. Sfasciotti, K. Kocur ROW 2: M.

DEBATE CLUB Every year Ripon debaters travel throughout the country to compete with other colleges and universities on the national inter-collegiate debate topic. This year’s debate topic was: Resolved: That the United States should adopt a program of compulsory health insurance for all citizens. This year Ripon debators traveled to Harvard University, University of Wisconsin in Madison and Milwaukee, Wisconsin State College at Eau Claire, Oshkosh Stale Teachers College, Northwestern Uni- versity, and the National Tournament at Stillwater, Oklahoma. This year’s varsity squad consisted of DufTy Fan and and Vei n Cronen who have seven and six years of debate experience respectively. Ripon College has the Wisconsin Alpha chapter of Pi Kappa Delta, the largest national forensics fraternity. This organization which now covers hundreds of col- leges throughout the country was founded on the Ripon campus in 1913. This year’s Pi Kappa Delta officers were: president, Vcrn Cronen; vice-president, Dick John- son; secretary. Joe Comfort; and administrative assistant, DufTy Farrand. Some tournaments throughout the year also offer competition in individual events. Ripon participants have competed in the following areas; oratory, extempo- raneous speaking, poetry reading, discussion, radio news casting, dramatic inter- pretation. and after dinner speaking. Although Ripon College is one of the smallest schools in national debate circles, it also has one of the finest reputations 'This year the Ripon debate team had one of its finest records in many years. Responsible for much of the team’s success is its faculty advisor and coach, Mr. Howard C. Hansen, chairman of the speech de- partment, who has guided Ripon to greater prestige in intcr-collcgiatc forensic activities. V. Cronen, T. Farrand. 73 CHEERLEADERS ROW I K. Konrad, T,.

Of the twenty-five girls trying out, the following were chosen: juniore, Mary Jo Pichl, Karen Konrad, and Bonnie Buck; sophomores, Cathy Olson. Betty Jayne Christiansen, and Gail Jensen, and freshmen. Lynn Haussennan. Substitutes are Ann Rath ford and Karen Gronow. The new class of '64 showed enthusiasm for the Rcdmen as they welcomed the football team at the opening game against Carleton on October 1st. Two weeks later the cheerleaders led this lively group of freshmen in a parade down Watson Street in the traditional manner the night before the Homecoming game. The spirit increased as the crowd viewed fireworks and applauded the speeches of John Storzer and honorary co-captains Jim Corrigan and Dick Louis. Saturday morning found the cheerleaders adding spirit to the Homecoming parade as they rode on the traditional red fire engine. Basketball season found the hard-working cheerleaders in bright new red uni- forms as moth eaten sweaters and “yellow” skirts were discarded To match their new uniforms, the cheerleaders introduced several new cheers. The cheerleading squad is certainly to be complimented on a fine season of hard work and enthusiasm. 75 R CLUB ROW I. J. Corrigan, J. Flakcr, J. Diedrich ROW 2. E. Meyer, B. Gchri, T. Stepha- nie, B.

The “R” Club is composed of Ripon men who have won a letter in a varsity sport, and the purpose of the club is to promote better sportsmanship. Members are also responsible for working at ball games, handling programs, and working at the concession stands. The most important social event of the year, for the members, was the sponsoring of the annual Homecoming Dance. This year under the leadership of their advisor Carl Doehling; president. Dick Papke; vice-president, Don Lindsey; secretary, Jim Corrigan; and treasurer, Bill Bein; a new constitution was adopted. It explained the purposes of the dub. powers of the officers, and requirements for membership. For the first time this year, the “R” Club sponsored a “Ripon Day” to which high school athletes from the surrounding area were invited. 76 INTRAMURAL BOARD The Intra-mural program for the 1960-61 season was planned and directed by the I.M. Board, under the guidance of Carl H. Doehling, athletic director of Ripon College. Heading the Board itself were Dave Wolter, president, and Bob Ziknumd, treasurer. The rest of the Board is composed of the I.M. manager from each house on campus. The theme of this year’s program was, “A sport for every man, and a man for every sport.” This was accomplished by giving those men who were not engaged in intcr-co!legiate athletics a chance to participate and compete on an organized level. At present there arc twelve sports offered ranging from small bore rifle to the I.M. track meet which is one of the most colorful events of the academic year. The com- petition is on a house basis and is spread throughout the entire year in order to provide an opportunity for all interested individuals to take part regardless of ex- perience or ability. The Board intends to advance this theme still further next year by enlarging the system under which it now works. ROW I. B. Boyd, J. Burdon. D. Wolter, N. Jesse ROW 2. G. Peterson, L. Hamilton, B.

Its basic aim is to provide recreation for all women students, through such s|K rts as volleyball, basketball, tennis, archery, badminton, swimming, softball, and fencing. Besides providing competition between both individuals and houses on this cam- pus, there are opportunities to compete against girls from other schools in the state. This year the girls participated in a volleyball-archery meet at River Falls in Novem- ber and a bowling-swimming meet at Beloit in December. They were also host to the All-State S|x rts Day in May. The officers this past year were: Bonnie Buck, president; Ginny Decker, vice- president; Elisc Werner, secretary; and Sue Shade, treasurer. 70 ROW . J. Pie iron, M. Kre'nek, J. Blodgett ROW 2. M.

Throughout the past year the Women’s Self Government Association of Kipon College successfully maintained the responsibility of governing all the women’s houses on campus. The main purpose of the W.S.G.A. is to further the spirit of unity among the women, to increase their sense of individual and group responsi- bility, and to establish necessary regulations and recommendations concerning dis ciplinary problems. The governing board of the W.S.G.A. is composed of the president and two rep- resentatives from each residence hall. The duty of this board is to consider all problems of interest to the association. Functioning in a judiciary capacity, the board deals with cases of conduct which are contrary to the W.S.G.A. rules. Barbara Johnson was this year’s capable president; Mara Latsons was vice- president; Pam Pankey was secretary; and Carolyn Francke was treasurer. Dean Van Hcngel. the Dean of Women, is the organization's advisor. The W.S.G.A. social event of the fall was a tea in honor of the Mademoiselle representative who visited Ripon to stimulate student participation in a nationwide art and writing contest sponsored by the magazine. 79 ROW I: J.

YOUNG REPUBLICANS With an election year at hand the Young Republicans Club was ofT to a busy start. Under the direction of Marty Latsons, president, Curt Rogers, vice-president, and Mara Latsons, secretary-treasurer, the members found themselves serving at the Republican headquarters in Ripon, handing out literature and campaigning for their candidates. On November 8 a tired and disappointed group saw Vice Presi- dent Richard Nixon defeated by Senator John Kennedy. Program Chairman Bob Eisaman was responsible for scheduling an open discus- sion led hv Dr. Fleming on the topic, “Will the Outcome of the Election Influence Future American Foreign Policy?” Throughout the year several other speakers were presented to the group. 80 '•«r PSYCHOLOGY CLUB ROW I: C.

It was founded as an organization for those persons, students, faculty, or towns- people, who are interested in discussing psychology and its many areas and problems. Many interesting programs have been offered, involving outside speakers, guest speakers from the faculty, field trips, and movies. The organization is open to all who wish to join and avidly welcomes new members. 81 COLLEGE DAYS ROW 1: B. Holvey, D. Hartung, S. Parsons, B. Tichy, S. Lange ROW 2: R. Baker, J- O'Neil, L.

In keeping with last year’s policy, the Ripon College Days has continued to publish a weekly newspaper in contrast to the former bi-weekly publication. The stafT of the ‘ College Days’’ has increased in number over those of the past years and has endeavored to turn out a sincere presentation of each week’s news. For this honest effort the staff is to be commended. The “Days” advisor, Mr. Gerald Red- ford, is also to be commended for his worthwhile advice to the staff. Also, in the past year the circulation of the “Days” was increased to include more parents and off-campus readers. With the help of its advisor, the “Days” has innovated a training program for the reporters and writers on the staff. This program is expected to be of great benefit to the staff of the newspaper and consequently to Ripon College. Constituting this program are regular scheduled classes concerning different aspects of journalism. It is hoped that this type of training will be carried on in the future. If it is carried on in the future, the newspaper will be able to rely on those individuals who were trained during the past year to handle the responsibilities of running the newspaper and to see that qualified persons are groomed to replace them. Next year the “College Days” hopes to increase student interest and participation in the paper and sustain its increased circulation. 02 ROW I: M. Bachtis, M. Caloger, J. Diedrich, J. Jenz, M.

Under the able leadership of Co-Editors, Judy Jenz and John Diedrich, plans were well underway at the beginning of the school year. As a result of the financial support appropriated by the Student Council, many special effects were utilized this year, which had not previously appeared in Ripon College yearbooks. We wish to express our thanks to all those who aided us in the production of the 1960-'61 Crimson. 03 PHI SIGMA IOTA Ripon is privileged to have the Sigma Alpha chapter of Phi Sigma Iota, the Na- tional Romance Language Honor Society. Organized for the purpose of encourag- ing high scholarship and individual research in the field of the Romance languages and literature, its membership is composed of college teachers and the very best advanced students of the Romance languages. To be qualified a student must be outstanding in his-entire college course of study as well as in the Romance languages.

ROMANCE LANGUAGE CLUB The Romance Language Club, composed of stu- dents studying or interested in the Romance Lan- guages, is an active organization dedicated to pro- moting a greater understanding of the French, Italian, and Spanish cultures. Under president Dee Moore and club advisor Dr. Alexander Hooker, the club has undertaken many activities to promote this objective. Once a year the group takes a field trip to Madison, Wisconsin, where plays in French and Spanish are staged annually. The club stimulates interest in foreign movies by bringing French, Italian, and Spanish films to the college campus. A Christmas party is held yearly the last week of classes before vacation. The group acquaints itself with the Yuletide traditions of France and Spain through singing the traditional carols and enacting many of the old world customs. Individually members contribute to the activities of the club. This year, for example, Gail Gillette will present a medley of French, Spanish, and Italian songs on her guitar. Members share their experiences by showing color slides of Europe. Through this club, a familiarity of old-world ideas together with a study of the language, gives its members a wide cultural as well as recrea- tional background. 86 RUSSIAN CLUB The Russian Club, now in its third year at Ripon, strives to provide for the current interest in the cultural back- ground of the Slavic people. A varied program was pre- sented to the student body through musical programs, lectures and films. Much of the success of the Russian Club is due to the work of Dr. Jcdrzcjcwicz who is the advisor and the head of the Russian Language Department. .Be- cause the club believes an understanding of the Slavic cul- ture and way of life to be very important as well as inter- esting, they hope to increase their activities in the future.

Held at the American Legion Hall, the dance got the Ripon social year off to a successful start. Early in the fall. Union Board established their Saturday night open houses in the union, featuring dancing and refreshments from the grill. These open houses proved very welcome to the students for they filled a gap in the college social life. As the year continued. Union Board sponsored their annual Winter and Spring Days at Lawsonia in Green Lake. Each day was filled with sporting activities and continuous bridge games and ended with supper at the Inn. The spring semester was dedicated to plans for “Night on the Town,” the annual Spring dance. With name band music and entertainment by Ripon’s own Indigos, the dance was the climax of the social year. Guided by the Executive Committee consisting of president I.ee Jess, vice- president Tim Mahoney, secretary Karen Schneider, and treasurer Cody Welch, and with the continued cooperation of all the board members, the Union Board enjoyed a successful and profi table year. 09 ROW I.

Ripon's oldest radio station, WRPN, boasting the largest of all student staffs, became the first FM radio station in the Ripon area. Broadcasting on 90.1 mega- cycles, the FM station began broadcasting a full schedule with the beginning of the new year. Broadcasting with the philosophy that the station is meant to lx1 a cultural ex- tension of the college ofT campus, the station broadcast a variety of material rang- ing from faculty lectures, children’s programs, material from the National Associa- tion of Educational Broadcasters, the finest in classical music and jar .% and some- thing new, tlx? complete picture of the Ripon Redmen basketball team, broadcast direct from the Ripon College Memorial Gymnasium. In preparation for FM, over fifty students took part in an eight week training course which instructed the prosj cctivc personnel in radio technique and announc- ing. From this group, comprised mostly of freshmen, new students were added to the to-the-nir staff. In February the station held their 2nd Annual WRPN Mid-west Radio Confer- ence, attended by stations from the North-Central area of the country. At the con- ference the problems and prospects of college radio, both AM and FM, were discussed. Early in December the station also made available to college radio stations throughout the country an original research project undertaken by the station man- ager Bill Jochimscn, delving into 10-Watt Educational FM radio. This report was made available at no cost to over fifty stations. To sum up: with their new advisor, Mr. Dean F. Graunke, Bill Jochimscn and his staff made tremendous strides in keeping WRPN AM FM the outstanding activ- ity on campus. 91 ROW . C Raney. J. Kohler. ROW 2. C. Gould, 1). Husek, C. Osgood. MEN'S RIFLE TEAM This year the rifle team had several fine returning marksmen and some excellent new freshmen. This year’s team captain, Wayne Boyd, was satisfied with a very successful year. To heighten com- petition among team members, A and B teams were formed, headed by Paul Babler and Don Husek. Trophies were awarded for such things as improvement and the best season average. The team was coached by Sgt. Pattec and Captain Payne was the advisor. .Several postal matches with schools outside of the 14th Army Corps league were scheduled throughout the year. The A and B teams competed with each other every week and the losers were charged a small fine. As the year ended new equipment was being purchased for improving scores and team spirit was good. 92 Under the coaching of Captain of the R.O.T.C. Department, and with persistent practice, the gills have become quite proficient at this sport. Recently the Women’s Rifle Team affiliated with the National Rifle Association. All matches, postal and shoulder to shoulder, were fired under the regulations of NR A. The team chal- lenged, for |x stal matches, colleges and universities from all parts of the country. Shoulder to shoulder matches were fired against Marquette, and the University of Wisconsin, both in Milwaukee and Madison. WOMEN'S RIFLE TEAM ROW 1. L. Siebel, N I x bel, I,. Rhodes. ROW 2. C.

The team had difficulty getting started for there were only six members with previous drilling experience. They prac- ticed nightly and worked diligently preparing for a meet against University of Wisconsin. After winning the meet, the Drill Team began its climb to stifTct competition. The team, for the first time, drilled in a national meet in Chicago late in March, 1959. Out of 18 teams, they placed 12th. In early December, i960. Cadet I.t. Trader com- manded the Drill Team to another victory at University of Wisconsin. They captured two trophies from the Bad- ger's NROTC and ROTC. With at least two years left together, the team should be proficient enough in drilling together to laconic one of the top college drill teams in the Mid West. DRILL TEAM 94 M. Trader, Sgt. Lambert.

The ultimate goal of this organization is to provide the Ripon College student with an opportunity to participate in the interchange of ideas. This year’s activities were centered on the formation of a new constitution and the planning of next years Religion in Life Week. The executive committee was led by Tom Magdich and aided by Cordon Enk, vice-chairman; Andrea Walters, executive .secretary; Elise Werner, corresponding secretary; and Diane Schnable, treas- urer.

V.I.P.’s of Alpha Chi Omega proudly displayed their excellence in campus leadership and honors with our first big event, the Homecoming Tea, in honor of Nelia Mistretta, Homecoming Queen, and Mary Lee Franke, freshman representative. This was the third consecutive year that the H C queen has hern a member of Alpha Chi Omega. Cheryl Fouse was chosen by Theta Chi to he the “girl of their dreams” for !60-’61, and Pam Pankey was chosen Apache Girl for Merriman’s Fall Party. Rush week was most rewarding for Lyle as we filled our quota with seventeen won- derful and excited girls, who are now Wearing the golden Lyre of Alpha Chi Omega since initiation in February. The holidays saw Lyle girls busily preparing for their annual Wassail Party. This was one of the best parties we had and was given for the faculty and staff of Ripon College, just before Christmas. In Activities? You bet! The sports world saw seven enthusiastic cheerleaders from Lyle. They were Man- Jo Piehl. Karen Konrad. Cathy Olson. Betty Jane Christiansen. Gail Jensen. Lynn Haussermann and Ann Rathford. Special recogni- tion goes to Judy Jenz who was Co-Editor-in-Chief of the 1961 Crimson. Other offices held by Alpha Chi s were: Pat Horr. President of I.S.C., Kathy Alderman Secretary of the Junior Class and a member of Student Court, Jevy Chang Secretary of the Freshman Class: Peggy Rogers, vice president, secretary and treasurer of tire Romance Language Club, and Mary Lee Franke and Barbara Blank held the office of president of their respective dormitories. Other organizations in which Alpha Chi’s participated were: Student Council, Orientation. Choir. Union Board. Crim- son Staff, Scribbler and WRPN. We all agree that 1960-61 was an active and eventful year. Here’s to future success. 99 1960 proved to be a wonderfully exciting year for Alpha Delta Pi. To start the year off a trio represented Tracy House in the Upperclass Stunt Night. Long hours of work on the Homecoming float and house decoration were rewarded by two first place trophies. This was the first time in Ripon’s history' that a sorority or fraternity won first place in both divisions. A hand of poker cards on the front lawn, marked the very' successful fall Open House. Its theme — “Full House at Tracy.” Sunday, November 13, found the girls waiting anxiously for their pledge list. The morning passed slowly, but ended well as Alpha Delta Pi welcomed a wonderful pledge class of ten girls. Soon after second semester, the pledges were able to turn in their pledge pins and don the black diamond of active membership. April brought with it the annual Spring Party to commemorate the local Founder’s Day. All of those things, plus practice for serenades and work to improve last year’s second place Spring Sing, made it a thoroughly fun filled, busy time. Besides the group activities, many girls held individual offices in campus activities: Judy Gruber, Student Court Re- corder: Carolyn Francke, Secretary of ISC and treasurer of YVSGA: Susan Allen, President of Phi Sigma Iota; and Carol Pickhardt, Secretary of the Homecoming Committee. The home was also represented on Union Board, Homecoming Com- mittee, and WRA. P. Fletcher, M. Watson, C. Carlson. H. Hass, K. Labisky, J. Nelson, C. Rummel, L. Watts, P. Ostrom. A.

Our social season began with an excellent open house in early October. Home- coming was highlighted by the selection of Jean Dring as sophomore representative on the Homecoming Court, an alumni banquet held at the Republican House, and a third place float prize. After a well received Fall serenade, the Alpha Phi girls embarked on a rigorous rush program. It proved very rewarding with the pledging of 23 outstanding girls. The new- pledges were introduced to our active alumni group at an informal afternoon tea. Throughout the year Alpha Phi’s were active in many activities and held many honor's on campus. Jean Dring reigned as the White Rose of Sigma Nu and Marcia Maher was the Sweethear t of Sigma Chi. Nowr that the campus is hir zing with 42 yellow sweaters, the future looks brighter than ever.

In athletics, John Diedrich and Bill and Jim Tichy ran cross country; Bill Stcgc won a varsity letter in football; Dave Lehman starred in basketball; and the Tichy brothers completed the track team. Sigma Nu rounded out the sports scene by placing Bob Schultz, Dave Lehman, John Diedrich, and Bob Tykal on the varsity gold squad. Social endeavors began with an unusual open house, animated by the accustomed sounds of the jungle. Homecoming likewise proved a great succe with many old Zcta 'Tau’s attending the annual ban- quet at the Bel Aire Club. After formal rush the fraternity joined Alpha Phi to celebrate their fine new pledge classes. Highlighting the fall semester was the “Shipwreck Party.” For the occasion, the Axe- llandlc room was superbly decorated with palms am! fish nets to represent a south-sea island atmosphere. The first semester then ended with the traditional Lyle-Sigma Nu Consumption Party which ended in mass confusion. With the coming of the second semester, ZT’s big- gest social event of the year, the “White Rose For- mal,” was viewed as the outstanding culmination of the social program. Leading the men of the Sigma Nu through the year were: Bob Tykal, Commander; Bill Tichy, Lt. Commander; Jim Tichy, Treasurer; and Jack Shaw, Recordci. ROW 1. G. Elliot, J. Thompson, P. Powers. D.

Delta Upsilon is once again among the leaders on campus with the members of the house participating in a wide variety of activities. From winning the leadership trophy to active participation in all IM sports, tin house has well lived up to its motto: “1)1’ in everything and every DU in something.” This year has been a full one for Delta Upsilon and the fine pledge class they received. At their fall Home- coming Alumni Banquet the Alums represented themselves better than ever. Just before Christmas vacation this year's pledge class planned and carried out a won- derful Christmas party for the tmderpriviledged children of the Ripon area. The two social highlights of the spring were tin annual Parent’s Day and the Spring Party. Scholarship was stressed by the fraternity starting with its study program for the pledge class and continued with plans to uphold the tradition of scholastic honors which have followed the house during past years. Last summer at the Delta Upsilon National Convention the Ripon Chapter won the Outstanding Young Chapter award. This is another example of what the DU men are accomplishing here at Ripon. DU was well represented in almost all major varsity sports. Many of the members were returning numeral or letter men. Plans for the future encompass every phase of college activity to insure that Della Upsilon remains among the leaders on campus. ) 111 ROW I. J. Miiler, R. Case. R. Haubrich, VV. Boyd, D.

While there, their chapter was awarded a charter by the Phi Delta Theta International Fraternity. This act ended five years of work by the men of Alpha Phi Omega. Phi Delta Theta began the college year with fine representation on the gridiron. Included on the Midwest Conference all-conference team were James Miller, sec- ond team, and Dick Montonaii and Ron Case, honorable mention. During the Homecoming festivities the Phi Dclts entertained their alumni with a banquet at the Eagles Club. The rushing period brought Phi Delta Theta an excellent group of versatile and active pledges. Extracurricular activities in which the Phi Dclts participated were: football, basketball, rifle team, tennis, track, APO. golf, band, chill team, and Stu- dent Council. After pledging came to a close, a party was held in honor of the newly initiated members. Highlighting the first semester social functions was the famous “Gangster Parly with the participants wearing the costumes of the “underworld” The active memtars of Phi Delta Theta offered every Ripon athletic organization outstanding participants. The Phi Dclts also had many enthusiastic supporters of the “Friday Club.” The fraternity functioned this year under the capable leadership of Tom Kuchl, president; Ron Case, reporter; Bill Lussenhop, secretary; and Bob Burress, treasurer.

This year, as in the past forty years, the men of Merriman, in pursuit of scholar- ship. leadership, loyalty, and physical achievement, the ideals upon which the fra- ternity was founded, have contributed much to the life of Ripon College. Success was the keynote of the year at Merriman with the fraternity members collectively and individually attaining goals which were noticed and admired by the rest of the campus. Led by Dick Louis, president: Bill Southern, vice president; Bob Laskc, secretary; and Jim Lane, treasurer, the Kappa Men remained one of the outstanding groups on campus. Merriman’s Open House started the year’s events with a record number visiting the beautiful House on the Hill. The Homecoming Banquet, held at Merriman, was highlighted by a talk from one of the original founders of the fraternity. A class of twenty-two of the most outstanding freshmen in all fields pledged PIti Kappa Pi in November and will continue the fraternity’s excellence in the future. The Apache Party, always looked forward to by all. saw the apjxarance of Mcr- riman’s own jazz combo. Peggy McElwec was chosen queen of the Apache Party. A pledge banquet, the Annual Spring Formal, and numerous informal parties rounded out the social year at Merriman. The leadership and loyalt) of the members was shown as Phi Kapj were rep- resented in all phases of campus extracurricular activities. An excellent representa- tion of Merriman men in all major varsity and freshman sports as well as 1M activities concluded another fine year in the history of Phi Kappa Pi. 115 «ssi eSt; . na p a m SIGMA ALPHA EPSILON .

They have kept up their old tradition of doing their lx'st in campus functions for the betterment of their college and their fraternity. Some of the positions attained by the Sig Alph members this year were: Union Board Curt Rogers, Bob Eisaman, and loin Stang; Sophomore Class President John Mott. and many others. In addition, seven of their members held high ranks in the Senior R.O.T.C. The members of Sig Alph were especially proud of Jim Corrigan, who was selected as Ripon’s most valuable player in football. Socially the men of Sig Alph have had a very successful year, with the Homecoming Banquet, the Bowery Party, and the annual Spring Party, not to mention the many spontaneous functions throughout the year. Some mention should he made also of the new pledge class which entered with a great deal of enthusiasm into the fraternity spirit, and has proven themselves more than adequate for the dis- tinction of being a Sig Alph. Congratulations arc certainly in order for president Jon Mills, vice-president Jim Corrigan, secretary Tom Stang, and ireaxuiei Dave Felling- ham. Second semester officers to be congratulated are president Jim Corrigan, vice- president Doug Morse, secretary Jack Doran, and treasurer Tom Stang. . S. Lacey, M. Mclaman, D. Babler, R. Kcssell, R.

No longer the traditional !‘boys from Bartlett,” they have still retained their sense of brotherhood and unity in spite of their move to the Quads. In the fall. Theta Chi began their social calendar with an open house, which drew compliments from all directions. Throughout the evening students and faculty en- joyed their tour of the house. They also enjoyed the redecorated lounge of which Theta Chi is very' proud. After that they proceeded to have a gay evening in the night club atmosphere of the new lounge, which lent itself well to the combo and the pretty freshman girls who were hostesses. After this first big entrance to Ripon's society this year, the boys continued their work with a Fall Party at Legion on the Lake in Osh- kosh, a Spring Party in Fond du Lac, and the annual Steak Fry, all of which will be remembered as very successful events. But the Theta Chi’s did not limit themselves merely to good parties. They were actively represented in athletics, Union Board, Student Council, Student Court, WRPN, and officers in the IFC. In the line of sports, Theta Chi had individuals participating in football, basketball, wrestling, and track. In Intra-murals, Theta Chi did well also. Theta Chi filled its ranks on the bowling team with some excellent freshmen bowlers. This year’s pledge class consisted of a group of fine young men from Scott and Bartlett Halls. The title of Theta Chi Dream Girl was awarded to Cheryl Fouse. Throughout the year the house has been successfully guided by Ron Gerlach as Presi- dent, '1'om Herrick as Vice-president, Jim Vibert as Secretary, and Dean Wilson as Treasurer. 119 SIGMA CHI L R.

We of Epsilon Lambda arrived on the campus this fall to discover that for the third consecutive semester we had won the scholarship trophy. The scho- larship trophy was placed on the shelf next to the intra-mural trophy which we had received at the end of the past school year for our first place finish in the intra-mural competition. These accomplishments are only important if they direct and encourage a fraternity to go forward and attempt bigger and better things. Last year Sigma Chi, fully aware of this situation, attempted for the first time to set up a Derby Da) program. The campus will certainly recall the vigorous response put forward by the entire student body when Derby Day made its debut. This year we witnessed another exciting Derby Day. Sigma Chi lacks nothing in the category of campus leadership. Within our brother- hood wc have Bill Boyd serving as Vice President of the Student Council, Lee Jess as President of the Union Board, and Tom Magdich as President of the Young Demo- crats and Religious Committee. One of our members, Robb Rowe, is the current com- mander of the R.O.T.C. Battle Group. Leadership as an essential quality for success in any field is well developed within the walls of our fraternity house. The Fraternity, symbolizing man’s attempt to approximate brotherhood, can finally claim nothing for itself if it fails in this area. Wc of Sigma Chi arc not complacent in our altitudes toward this coveted goal. B. Eager. R. Rogers. R Zuenglcr, R. Wilson, J. Portegys, J. Smuckler, C. Wiesner, J. Fox, R. Stephenson.

The independent women, pictured above, reside at Hall House and the Tri-Dorms. Throughout the year, they have been active in organizations such as Slavic Club, Romance Language Club, WRPN, Col- lege Days, and others, independent women served as house officers of Hall House: Sue Hansen, president: and Dec Moore, secretary-treasurer. The independent women rated second scholasti- cally in the all-women standings with an average gradepoint of 2.519. The independent men, pictured on two previous pages, constitute approximately 30% of the male en- rollment. “Indees’’ lived in North, Bartlett, and Scott Halls, and in ofT campus residences. North Hall of- ficers were President David Pallett, Vice-President Bruce Romberg, and Secretary-Treasurer Gordon Mcseck. As in the past, independent men played an important part in many campus activities. Some ol the activities represented were: WRPN and WRPN- FM, Dramatics, Band, Choir, Student Government, The Scribbler, College Days. Alpha Phi Omega Service Fraternity, ROTC, and the intramural sports program. Some of the independent men participated as a loosely organized group in order to take a more ac- tive part in campus affairs. North Hail sponsored an Open House, entered the Homecoming Float and House Decorations contests, and won the Second Place Award in the latter contest. A group entered the Spring Sing, after much preparation. The independent men achieved a very respectable scholarship rating the first semester of this year. The independent gradepoint was 2.497, higher than the all-fraternity average. 12fi CRIMSON QUEENS ONNA OBERHOLTZ ALPHA CHI OMEGA JUDY ZINDA KAPPA DELTA JUDY WAGNER ALPHA XI DELTA MARCIA MAC LEI9H ALPHA PHI CRIMSON QUEENS ROW I.

This prediction was attributed to the fact that we had a light team that wasn’t capable of much speed. Coach Storzer even commented on these facts saying, “We may be a bit light, and not have as much speed as in past years, but in team spirit we are second to none.” Ilis description of the team proved to lx; close to correct, but he failed to emphasize the fact that his small team had a tremendous power potential. When the team combined the spirit that the Coach had praised with their power potential, Ripon was able to overwhelm some of the strongest and fastest teams in the conference. Jim Corrigan Most Valuable Player The season itself was a very strange season and the won-lost record doesn’t give a clear picture of the team’s play The record was 3 wins, 4 losses and 1 tie. This record gave us a tie for sixth place in the conference, but even this is deceptive as a measure of the teams’s strength for the year. Anyone who saw Ripon play knows that the team was much stronger than the record shows. This fact is evidenced by the scores and the statistics of die individual games. Also the fact that we were able to place five players on the All-Conference list is an indication of strength. Those players that so distinguished themselves were: Jim Miller, tackle, second team; Carl Wurl, Ron Case, Jim Corrigan, and George Sievers, honorable mention. The first real victor)’ of the season was against Carleton the fol- lowing week. As in the previous game, Ripon dominated play, but this time they also dominated the scoring. This game was a real team effort and the spirit factor was apparent. The final score was Ripon, 27; Carleton, 18. At St. Olaf the following week our lack of speed and size was a definite disadvantage. The Olcs overwhelmed us with their speed and won the game 26 to 13. When the final conference standings came out St. Olaf was the top team. Even though the Ripon team felt that it had not displayed its best performance, the players still made a very respectable showing against this very strong team. This game was the beginning of the trouble that hindered us for the re- mainder of the season. The trouble seemed to be a lack of consistent team spirit. When one man was up another was down. It is hard to play winning football if each team member docs not display spirit of equal intensity. Our Homecoming game was played with Cornell and this w’as another disappointment for the team. It seemed that in this game wc lacked the initial effort necessary for victory. Perhaps the loss, of quarterback Jim Cowley hurt the morale but for some reason I Ripon lost the spark that is so essential. The score of the game was 18 to 6 The following week we faced the Vikings of Lawrence . . . This game was similar to die Cornell game in that we were again lacking the spirit ar.d the spark. We w'ere only able to cross the 50 yard line once. It was Lawrence’s Homecoming and they were extremely de- termined. Ripon was plagued with interceptions and fumbles and was generally unable to move the ball. Tlx? Vikings scored twice to make the final score 13 to 0. After losing three games in a tow, it was thought that we might be finished for the season. The Beloit game show-ed that we did have plenty of spark left. In this game we w'ere hindered with some bad breaks, but not before we had run up twice the yardage and first dow'ns as Beloit. The game showed that the potential was still there, and that there would be more good football to come. The • score of this game was Ripon, 6: Beloit, 0. George Sicvcrs Dick Louis 139 Jon Weisc In '.heir last win of the season, Ripon showed the spirit and drive that they had exhibited earlier. In this game with Knox, the Redmen were again plagued with misfortune, but this time the spirit and {lower potential were sufficient to lead the Redmen to a 13—12 victory. After such a good sliowing in the two previous games it was thought that the team might be able to finish the season with a win. Unfortunately this was not the case. In the last game of the season with Grinnell we were again outclassed in all departments. Looking back on the season, however, it could lie classified as a successful one. Even though we didn’t win all the games, we did defeat some of the best teams in the conference. When our team spirit was high we were unbeatable. Some individuals also dis- tinguished themselves throughout the season and de- serve recognition. The players of the team picked as their captains for the year. Carl Wurl and Dick Mon- tonati. Jim Corrigan was chosen as the most valuable player. George Sicvcrs should be mentioned also as he always posed a scoring threat and gained many valuable yards throughout the season. The prospects for next year lie mainly in the hands of the freshmen. If they produce some decisive speed to accomj an their great desire, Ripon may once again obtain a high place in the unpredictable Mid- west Conference. 140 Aim The 1960 Ripen College cross-country team was a much improved unit over the teams Ripon has fielded in past years. The team finished sixth in the conference meet at Washington Park in Chicago. Waneu Ilcndricks paced the Rcdmcn in this race with a twelfth place finish. The varsity squad members were Warren Hend- ricks, John Diedrich, Bill Tichy. Bruce Gchri, Jim Tichy, and Ken Mitchell. The entire squad excluding Mitchell will be returning next season. If the freshman team utilizes its potential when it moves up to varsity status, next season promises to be a much improved one for the Rcdmcn harriers. The freshman squad was composed of Dick McCormack, Dick Wilson, Martin Spector, Bob Collins, Gan- Yerkev, and Charles Swan.

BASKETBALL The Redmen of Ri|v n College turned in their most successful season and highest finish in eleven years ns they compiled a 12—10 overall record and a 9—9 conference mark. Their conference' record of 9—9 was good enough for a fourth place tie in the standings with Grinnell, Monmouth and Coe. The Redmen opened fast, winning six of their eight first games, including victories over Elmhurst and Lake Forest in the Christmas Holiday Tourna- ment. Then the team seemed to hit the skids, as mid- season rolled around, by dropping six of their next seven conference tilts. With only five games remain- ing on their schedule, the Redmen once more caught on fire as they ran together a winning streak of four games before dropping their finale to St. Olaf in a 69—68 clifl’-hanger. One of the outstanding highlights of the season was the cagemen’s two victories over their arch rival, the Vikings of Lawrence. After knocking off the Vikings 80—68 at Appleton, the Redmen repeated the trick by squeeking out a slim 71—68 victory at home. The latter game was handed to Ripon on a silver platter, when, with live seconds remaining in the game and the score all knotted up at 68—68. Lawrence was called for a technical foul for taking too many time outs. The situation was reversed in the Redmen’s final game of the season with St. Olaf. Ken Hokcness dropped in a fielder with only 3+ seconds left in the game to give the Olics a slim 69 68 margin. After three or four futile attempts, Riporis Dick Monto- nati let fly with a shot that went through the basket, but it was ruled that the final gun had sounded. Mike Mullen. 5'11 senior guard, finished second to Monmouth’s Claire McRoberts in conference scor- ing with a 20.4 average. Mullen, who is deadly with the fade away jump shot, turned in his best perform- ance on the 18th of February against Knox as he popped in 13 fielders and added 8 charity shots for 34 points. Other outstanding individual performances were turned in by Dick Papke and Bruce White. Papke, who finished 9th in conference scoring, hit 12 of 14 free throws against Monmouth on December 9th. and White, who placed 17th in conference scoring, pulled down 24 rebounds against the Carleton Carls on March 3. In conference play, the Rcdnien compiled the best offensive and worst defensive statistics, ripping the nets for 1294 points to their opponents 1282. Overall the Redmen showed their best offensive and defen- sive displays in the Holiday Tournament. In defeat- ing Elmhurst 67 -49, they heid th.cir opponents to a mere 18 field goals and in their win over Lake Forest, 89- 85, they hit 36 times from the floor. Next year Coach Kermit “Doc” Wciske will wel- come back Juniors A1 Jarreau, Dave Lehman, Dick Papke, Bruce White, and Tim Williams, along with sophomore Frank Smoll. Ripon will lose stalwarts Dick Montonati, Mike Mullen, and Don Lindsey through graduation. 144 DAVE LEHMANN FRANK SMOLL CAPTAIN DICK MONTONATI CONFERENCE STANDINGS MIKE MULLEN ALL-CONFERENCE MOST VALUABLE PLAYER Cornell 15 3 .833 Carleton 11 7 .616 St. Olaf 11 7 .616 RIPON 9 9 .500 Grinnell 9 9 .500 Coe 9 9 .500 Monmouth 9 9 .500 Beloit ........ 7 11 .388 Knox 5 13 .277 Lawrence 5 13 .277 BRUCE WHITE 1 I EV WOOD GAIL 147 ROW 1 K Dunlavy, J.

Under the able direction of the new wrestling coach Lou Bach, who instilled spirit and desire into his small squad, the grapplers completed one of the more successful seasons in recent years. The matmen were often unable to fill all of the weights and were forced to forfeit two and sometimes three matches almost every meet They managed a 3—4—1 season record and a sixth place in the Mid- west Conference Wrestling Meet held at Cornell. The small squad showed its strength in the con- ference meet as four of its six entrants placed. Ken Dunlavy, a strong competitor for Ripon throughout the year, led the way with a second place in the 167 lb. class. Dick Bannon wrestled his way to a third place in the heavyweight division. His ability will be missed next year by the Redmen. Dean Wilson, a three time letterman, finished out his wrestling career here at Ripon by placing fourth at 130 pounds A newcomer to the sport. Roger Crass, managed a fourth place in competition with more experienced wrestlers in the 157 jxmnd class Wrestling is on the upswing at Rijjon and an op- timistic outlook prevails for next season. Several able freshmen will he moving up to the varsity squad to aid the four returning lettermcn. With hard work under the watchful eye of Coach Bach, Ripon is ex- pected to continue to build its wrestling strength. 150 ROGER CRASS DEAN WILSON RICH HAWORTH JIM FALKENRATH JERRY SEMRAD KEN DUNLAVY COACHING STAFF J.

WEST GOES PHI DELTA THETA 162 i GOVERNOR NELSON'S VISIT FOUNDER'S DAY I 168 LU LU VICTORIOUS DEBATERS CARL DOEHLING Carl Doehling, athletic director and chairman of the physical education department, ends a 37 year career with Ripon College at Commencement exer- cises this June. Coach Doehling came to Ripon 24 years ago as athletic director and football and track coach. When he relinquished his jx sition as head football coach in 1956 he had guided the Ripon Col- lege Rcdmcn to eight championships in the Midwest Collegiate Athletic Conference. Throughout the years, perhaps Coach Doehling's most outstanding achievement has been his supervision of the college intramurals program. Under his direction the intra- mural activities have increased so that they now ex- tend to almost 90% of the male enrollment. The 1961 Crimson staff wishes to take this oppor- tunity to express their admiration and appreciation to Coach Carl Doehling for his dedicated interest and service during the past 37 years. 175 177 179 180 THURSDAY, JUNE 1 SATURDAY, JUNE 3 2:00 p.m. Faculty meeting — Faculty Lounge 3:00 p.m. Phi Beta Kappa Meeting — Faculty Lounge 3:00 p.m. Senior party for faculty, staff, and fam- ilies — Barlow Park FRIDAY, JUNE 2 11:00 a.m.-8:00 p.m. Registration of alumni and par- ents — Smith Hall 12 noon Luncheon — Memorial Union dining hall ($1.00) 2:00 p.m. Graduation rehearsal — College Theater.

Many of the early practices had to be held indoors. Despite the weather conditions en- thusiasm ran high with the anticipation of championship seasons. Under the capable leadership and guidance of coaches Bach, Stor er, W'eiske, and Ashley the spring sjjorts program proved to be both eventful and rewarding. Both tennis and baseball squads posted records unequaled in recent years. The track squad under Coach Bach was handicapped this season. An unusually small turnout made it impossible for the squad to participate in all events. Thus track vic- tories were difficult to secure, and the track squad fin- ished ninth in the midwest conference meet The out- standing contribution of the season was made by Bill Tichy who repeatedly won dual meets and gave Ripon its only points in the conference meet by placing 3rd in the l t mile. He also broke 2 Ripon College records this season in both the 2 and l mile. There are high hopes for next year's track squad as Coach Bach has created much interest and enthusiasm among the promising freshmen. The Ripon College Baseball team brought delight to the campus as it posted its best season in history, placing third in the conference. Special mention should be given to Cap- tain Jim Corrigan; and most valuable player, Sid Frame. Coach Storzer was pleasantly surprised at the fine show- ing of his squad throughout the season. The final record showed nine wins and four losses. Coach YVeiske’s Golf Squad led by captain Bob Tykal and first man Bob Schultz posted a winning season hut fal- tered in conference competition and placed eighth in the conference. With the loss of only one senior and with a fine freshman squad, golf also looks promising in the near future. With a well rounded squad the tennis team posted its best season in history. Led by number one man, Howie Meyers, the squad placed third in the conference meet only one point shy of the championship. Of the many dual meets they entered, the squad suffered only one setback. Dean Ashley should be commended for the fine showing of the tennis team this season. Spring sports were exciting and fruitful this year and again showed the value of extra-curricular activities in a liberal arts education. ROW ±zl J. Weber, A. Stephanie, C. Wurl, W. Hendriks, B.
