mm ' tit mm 3Ex HibrtB CASCADE I1928J PUBLISHED BY THE ASSOCIATED STUDENTS OF SEATTLE PACIFIC COLLEGE MAY, 1928 FOREWORD I F, in after years, there is quickened in the mind of the reader thoughts of school days, which, after all, are the best days, and if there is renewed the ideals on which our College was founded and is maintained, the ideals of Christian Education, the Cascade of 1928 will have accomplished its purpose. TO One who is always willing to share our joys as well as our sorrows. TO One who inspires us all by her spirit of devo tion and sacrifice. TO One who is giving her life to the cause of Christian Education, and thus is exemplifying the life of the Great Teacher. TO C. MAY MARSTON Professor of English and Foreign Languages, we, the Staff of 1928 , affectionately dedicate this Cascade. GREETINGS To the Students of our College: Soon after entering Seattle Pacific College every student becomes aware of at least three important factors connected with the school. One of these is the school curriculum. The various courses of study seem to be more or less rigid and constitute pre-arranged grooves in which the student must move along. The second factor is not the written law of the curriculum nor the list of required subjects in any course of study. It is, instead, the unwritten law - the traditions —of the college. Hikes, receptions, stunts, singing and many other activities are traditionally an essential part of our college. Tradition has made our Chapel a veritable Holy Place. God grant that our fine traditions shall con¬ tinue to be a constant challenge to every one for the fullest expression possible of group co-operation and individual leadership. The third factor is very different from the first two. It deals neither with formal curriculum nor yet with our fine traditions, but with that indefinable something which we describe by the word ideals. You will forget the require¬ ments in the various courses of study and will perhaps only occasionally recall the various traditional ceremonies and class activities but you will never forget nor cease to be affected by the ideals of your school. The curriculum is necesary in providing guidance for formal training; the traditions give life and interest to the months and years you spend in school; but the ideals enter into the very fabric of your being. To the graduates, especially, may I say a further word. You have complied with the requirements of the respective curricula. For this, the school has given you an official parchment stamped with the school seal. You have imbibed the spirit of the fine traditions of the school. For this, you have already been repaid in many pleasant hours of association. You have been associating with teachers and fellow students who have the highest type of Christian ideals. These same ideals have challenged you. You have, we believe, embraced them as your own. For this, far more than merely the completion of a formal course of study, does Seattle Pacific College call you her own and commission you to be her represen¬ tative wherever yo u go. She is your Alma Mater. Yours for S. P. C., C. HOYT WATSON. CHARLES HOYT WATSON President FACULTY Jacob Moyer William F. Clark Candis J. Nelson Anna E. Burns Omar A. Burns C. E. V. Henderlite C.

Two members of the class, Wilfred Marston and Jesse Walter, have continued from the High School Class of ’24. Six others, Matilda Reichelt, Ralph Richards, Fred Hawley, Leon Hawley, Elvira Herr ' mann and Pedro Panaligan, have been with the class since Freshman days. Russell Bisnett, Fred Bach, Dorothy Harris, Myron Williams, and Lora Holton have entered the class since then. After we were initiated we became fulhfledged Freshmen, ready for a good time, and many were the good times we had together on hikes and parties. Our “Kid Day” was a success. We well remember entertaining the Sophomores at Phyllis Van Dyke’s home, and also the Sophomore Goat. The class basketball team began its career in this year by winning the Glen E. Carlson trophy cup. We had a debate team, also, which won from the College Juniors and lost only to the Seniors. We certainly did not permit Freshman days to be unpleasant even if the Sophomores provided us with “Angel Food” cake unintentionally. We began our Sophomore pleasure by putting the Freshmen through an nitiation at Hallowe’en. New Year’s Eve of that year we spent at Magnolia, where hamburger was our main delicacy, and at the home of our adviser, Mrs. Tiffany. Many were our pleasant times during that year. In athletics we again stepped to the front, as basketball champions. Owing to greater responsibilities we lessened the number of activities during our Junior year. We entertained the Seniors by a boat trip on May 6. Our class basketball team was the first College Junior team to win and the first team to win for three successive years; the Glen E. Carlson trophy cup thus became a permanent possession of the class. Winning the Elkins’ Scholarship Trophy added to the scholastic attainment of the class. We have had members in important offices and on debate and athletic teams. Five of the Seniors are members of the Ministerial Association and another is a missionary, indicative that spiritual interest is not foreign to us. For other interesting items ask a member of the class of ’28. Page Fifteen The Cascade DISTANT WANDERINGS O NE day in 1942 as I was working on the Nicaraguan Canal, the air mail brought me word from California that I should return to claim my heritage as the sole beneficiary of my uncle. It was March and I was tired of shoveling Central American mud. I rather gladly complied with the request and took the air stage to Watts, California, my uncle’s late home. After settlement of my uncle’s estate, I had $267.03 and a 1928 Ford. What could I do with my assets? The thought “Why not travel?” seized me. I then began planning an itinerary within a few days, and I started north in my motor car. Four miles south of Eugene, Oregon, I drove into a service station for gas. There, to my surprise, I saw Ralph Richards look up from mending a tire. Of course, we talked, and I learned that Mrs. Matilda Reichelt Richards was principal of a nearby grade school. In Seattle a newspaper heading attracted my attention. “King County Jersey, Winner. Fred Hawley, Bothel Farmer, Owner.” Fred had married a Montana school teacher and had a nice little home near town. I left my Ford at Vancouver and sailed to Alaska. At Wrangell I saw Myron Williams, city mayor. I visited other friends in Alaska and returned to Vancouver to resume my automobile tour of the continent. In driving across Canada I stopped over Sunday at Cousins, Alberta, where I heard a sermon by the Reverend Russell G. Bisnett. My itinerary led me through Red Wing, Minnesota, where Wilfred Marston was selling hamburgers at a fair. He told me he was porter in a side-door Pullman during winter. In Missouri, near St. Peter’s, I saw Mrs. Mike Murphy, formerly Elvira Herrmann, wife of a section foreman for the Wabash Railroad. I came across Feon Hawley, sky pilot, in the Kentucky Mountains. At a Russian mission on the waterfront in Philadelphia I heard Fred Bach, in special meetings. By the time I arrived at New York my money was nearly gone and so I looked for work. As I glanced through the paper to find the want ads I saw a special announcement of a lecture on the Fourth Dimension and Other Mathe¬ matical Phenomena, by Professor Burton F. Beegle. I arranged to hear this lecture. Afterward, in talking to Professor Beegle, I learned that he had recently returned from a tour. He had seen the Holton family in Japan where they were on a furlough from Tibet. The Holtons told him that Dorothy Harris had visited them on her way to the mission field in Africa. Professor Beegle had also seen Pedro Panaligan in Manila at a teachers’ convention. Then, having seen or heard of every member of the class of ’28, I was satisfied to work in a shoe shining parlor temporarily.

Notwithstanding the disappointment, they have had a good year. Professor Booth was chosen again as Class Adviser. The Juniors appreciate his cheerful personality and the many good times spent with him. Although in numbers the Junior class has been the smallest in school, it has been one constantly active. The year started by having a majority of members present on the College hike; then came Hallowe’en, but don’t ask where the Juniors went. They had a good time anyway; all agreed that it was a time happily and damply spent. When pep seemed a little absent in the school, there appeared the mysterious posters in the halls of the Administration Building, and better yet, the explanation of them, the Pep Rally. The Hot Dogs were certainly delicious. The orchestra played as they had never played before, and what a game there was in the gymnasium! Among many other activities do not forget the farewell breakfast to Leota and Orland Walter, at Fort Lawton Beach, where the beauty of the sunrise on the mountains compelled all to wonder at the handiwork of God. The class wishes that all may come back next Fall and have even a better year than this one has been. Page Eighteen The Cascade 1. George Jackson 2. Evelyn Howell 3. Melba Stephens 4.

President Melba Stephens . Vice-President Eileen English . Secretary-Treasurer Glenn Blair . Student Representative Elva Shoemaker . Reporter Various social functions were sponsored by the class. The Freshmen will probably long remember the Hallowe’en party given them in the gymnasium by the “peppy Sophs.” The Sophomores in turn enjoyed being the guests of the Freshmen on a hike to Lincoln Beach on February 22. Plenty of “fun” and “good eats” were the main features of the day. The officers for the second semester were: Rufus Salyer - . President Keith Morton . Vice-President Eileen English . Secretary-Treasurer Celia Helwig . . Student Representative Valborg Stavney . Reporter The Sophomore class manifested its class loyalty to S. P. C. by giving class yells and a stunt at the College reception, by having a candy sale, the proceeds of which went to the Cascade and by decorating for the Cascade program. A party given by the class at the home of Rufus Salyer proved very success¬ ful, the memories of which will long remain. The Class Adviser, Professor Henderlite, has shown much enthusiasm and loyalty to the class in all its undertakings, and the class has appreciated his guidance and friendship throughout the year.

Reporter Marion Van Tassel . Religious Director Edward Blair . Student Representative ' T HE class of ’31 is nearing its port. Having had favorable winds and currents, the cruise has been pleasant and profitable. With colors flying the Freshman craft was launched on September 19, with sixtyTve members aboard, the largest group ever known to set sail at one time in S. P. C. The crew, guided by Captains Blair and Watkins, and piloted by Professor Ward, has proved efficient and willing. Various landings have been made during these nine months, foremost among which stand the Sophomore initiation party at the gymnasium, the Christmas party, and the Frosh ' Soph hike to Lincoln Beach. The members have been busy during this time and all have helped to uphold the good name of the class. In the Community Fund Drive and the boat trip ticket sale the Freshmen led all the way. The Freshmen have endeavored to further the religious activities of the College. The class of the “Green and White” had charge of one Saturday night service at the Olive Branch Mission, one Chapel service,and one Tuesday evening meeting. The green and white flag is still gayly flying, and as the class nears port they are sorry they will soon no longer be Freshmen. Page Twenty-four The Cascade THE NORMAL DEPARTMENT iCr T ' HE standards which teachers are required to maintain are continually rising. Their work takes on a new dignity. It is rising above a calling, above a profession, into a realm of an art. It must be dignified by technical training, ennobled by character, and sanctified by faith. It is not too much to say that the need of civilization is the need of teachers. The contributions which they make to human welfare are beyond estimation.” _ Calvin Coolidge The Normal Department of Seattle Pacific College was organized in 1921-22. In 1922-23, on application, accreditation was granted. The first students to graduate from the department were Loretta Pettingill and Elmer ' Root. They were later married and went to India, where the Normal training began to function at once. The first class to graduate under accreditation numbered thirteen. Eight of this number are married and thirteen are teaching. During the span of the department one hundred and twelve have been graduated. This does not include the class of 1928, which numbers over thirty. Of the one hundred and twelve graduates, sixty-two are teaching, distributed over eight states; forty-six of the number are teaching in the State of Washington, and be it said to their credit, not a failure has been recorded, but on the contrary, their work has been very highly commended by their various superintendents and principals. Thirteen of the former graduates, believing in the growing standards of teachers, are continuing in College to complete work for an A. B. degree. All of this is an effective piece of advertising for the Normal Department of Seattle Pacific College. “If teachers do not do their work well, this republic will not outlast the span of a generation. — Theodore Roosevelt.

The Cascade THE TRAINING SCHOOL M ODERN education is concerned with the “doing” of things taught. No longer is one satisfied with mere theory, valuable as it is, in the educational field. Teachers in preparation must go into a welborgamzed elementary school and demonstrate their ability to teach, applying what they have gathered in their theory classes, to determine whether it has really been learned. To be able and willing to apply a proper method is the test of learning. The Training School is the laboratory for this procedure; supervisors guide and correct the work. The Training School at Seattle Pacific College is organized after the best approved schools of the State. The children are grouped in Primary, Inter ' mediate, and Junior High School, each with a carefully planned organization and curriculum. Page Twenty-eight The Cascade SPEECH ARTS DEPARTMENT Florence Simmons Elvira Hermann Ruth Elkins PI KAPPA PHI r T ' HE department of Speech Arts of Seattle Pacific College is one of growing -L popularity. It has aroused unprecedented enthusiasm, followed by a cor ' responding rapid growth. Under the able direction of Donna Elder Jackson, the department has contributed largely to the various activities of the College. Pi Kappa Phi, a classroom group, has presented this year a Christmas dramath nation and the play ' pageant “Esther.” Ruth Elkins, Elvira Hermann, and Florence Simmons are honored by being the first graduates from the department. Page Twenty-nine The Cascade RELIGIOUS THE CHAPEL A MONG the many activities of Seattle Pacific College, the one most dear to our hearts is the Tuesday Evening Chapel Service. Here, after a week spent in study and the performance of daily duties, one may spend a few moments with the Lord and Master, and come away with a feeling of rest and peace which the world cannot give. The fellowship with other students and the spirit of the service always make the burdens lighter and easier to bear. Also in the Chapel are held many student prayer meetings, which are a source of help along spiritual lines to all those who attend. Truly it may be said that the Chapel is the center of the religious life of the school. Page Thirty The Cascade STUDENT VOLUNTEERS F OR several years the Student Volunteer group has been a very vital part of Seattle Pacific College. Many missionaries have gone out to work for Christ from this school. The purpose of this group is to keep alive Missionary zeal and to create an interest to the end that other students who are qualified may enlist for Christian service in other lands. In order to strengthen themselves for future service the Student Volunteers believe that service here and now is important. With this thought in mind, and with a desire to win souls, the Band has gone to various churches for deputation work during the school year. A returned missionary, now attending Seattle Pacific College, has voiced three very striking Scriptural reasons for her being a missionary, all of which are applicable to the call of every Student Volunteer. They are as follows: The command of Jesus who said, “Go ye therefore and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Ghost.” Paul’s testimony: “Yea, so have I strived to preach the gospel, not where Christ was named lest I should build on another man’s foundation.’’ David’s declaration: “I delight to do thy will, O my God.’’ Page Thirty-one i, The Cascade MINISTERIAL ASSOCIATION Allan Westcott . President Ray Bishop . Vice-President Russell Bisnett . Secretary-Treasurer Burton Root . Reporter I T has been said, “What you are to be, today you are becoming.” The students in Seattle Pacific College who are looking forward to work in the Master’s vineyard as preachers of the Gospel, have acted upon this principle this year as in the past. When a desire to serve is evident, many opportunities are presented. Regularly the Ministerial Association has had charge of the Saturday evening services at the Olive Branch Mission. Then, in connection with the Evangelistic Band, members of the Association have helped in many churches of various denominations both in Seattle and nearby points. In all these services the members have been made to realise that in order really to aid others they must know the Word and have their lives hid in Christ. This year has been a year of deepening Christian experience for the Association as well as one of great activity. Page Thirty-two The Cascade EVANGELISTIC BAND T HE Evangelistic Band is the group in the school including all those Christian students who desire to work for Christ. They feel that Christ calls each of them as Christians to work for Him and are glad to respond to that call. The Band was organized at the beginning of the year with Miriam Warren as president. Under her able leadership the Band has conducted a few of the chapel services at the College Church, and services in other churches in this city and in other cities. The students belonging to the Band have received spiritual strength, have been inspired by working for the Master, and have been blessed by messages brought to them in song and in sermon. Training in Christian leadership is recognized as very essential to a young person. Those who work in the Evangelistic Band receive much valuable experience. Page Thirty-three The Cascade MUSIC DEPARTMENT Mr. Wright has graduated from the Music Department He will give his recital Tuesday, June 5, 1928. Paul Wright T his is an age when music study is considered an Important part of one’s education. Even in Greek education, in addition to the essentials, it was recognized as a fundamental need of humanity. Men in all walks of life have glorified music: Moses, David, Plato, Luther, Shakespeare, Gladstone, Carnegie, Lloyd ' George, and hosts of others. It is equally appropriate amidst splendor and magnificence and amid the lowliest surroundings. Music, like literature and art, awakens, stimulates, and develops an appreciation of beauty. Somehow it opens the windows of the soul, softens the whole being, speaks directly to the heart, and is a form of experience where words are inadequate. It charms the lowest as well as the highest in the scale of humanity. One who disregards music as an important study is missing the great inspiration and solace that have been bestowed upon mankind. Many of the young men and women attending Seattle Pacific College are making music study a part of their education. The courses as outlined in the Music Department make possible the opportunity for specialization. Those not desiring to make music a specialty find the study a means of “training the memory, quickening the perception, stimulating the imagination, and encouraging con ' centration.” They will have an accomplishment that will be of untold personal advantage, interest, and pleasure, which will follow through life. In the musical field there is a demand for the musician whose education has been thorough. Seattle Pacific College has a Music Department of exceeding high standard where thorough training is one of the outstanding features. Every person ought to participate in good music the same as in good literature. Because of this, Seattle Pacific College makes music a vital part of its educational program. Page Thirty-Jour The Cascade LADIES’ CHORUS T HOUGH rather small in number in comparison to that of last year, the Ladies’ Chorus has done exceptionally fine work, and has had some very intensive and beneficial practice. The chorus has sung both secular and religious songs, and has also spent a great deal of time and effort preparing the cantata, “The Christ Child,” which was given by the combined chorus at Christmas and at the Educational Convention. The members of the Chorus wish to extend hearty thanks and appreciation to Mrs. Bush, who is responsible for the success of the group. The College is fortunate in having her again this year as instructor of voice. There are many others who would have enlisted in this group had not conflicting classes prevented. May better cooperation and interest be shown in the student body in making a bigger and better chorus next year! MEN’S CHORUS T HE work in the Men’s Glee Club this year has been especially interesting and delightful for various reasons. The registration has been larger this year, and the meeting has been regular. Because of the regular meeting twice a week and the credit given for Glee Club, the fellows have responded in a very gratifying way. Many who had heretofore sung but little have come to feel with the poet that “music hath charms.” In the regular class in Glee Club there have been about forty men.. From this group a singing team of eleven men has gone out to sing before various groups, such as the Seattle Y. M. C. A., and different churches of Seattle. The group has also given several extended musical programs elsewhere, to the evident inspiration of the listeners. With the Glee Club this year there have been two male quartets. Both have been very busy filling calls all over the city and surrounding territory. The quartets, as well as the Glee Club, have made a specialty of singing Gospel songs. We all have come to feel that there is a distinct ministry of song: our work both in the Glee Club and quartets has been to fulfill that ministry.

Starting with but a few players it has increased to an approximate number of fifteen members who, under the able direction and instruction of Mrs. Rengstorff, have made decided progress. Those included in the orchestra at present are—Piano: Frances Pearson; First Violin: Olive Bisnett and Wilbur Sparrow; Second Violin: Fillian Wilke, Evelyn McCall, and Fyle Watson; First Cornet: Burton Moyer and Aubrey Morton; Saxophone, Keith Morton; Trombone, Fred Hawley; Flute, Fred Bach; Cello, Mary Salyer; and Drums, Ivan Lewis. By much careful and diligent practice the orchestra has steadily increased in quality. The organization is represented in the regular schedule and given a definite rehearsal period each week. Through the noble efforts of a majority of the members, a music section has been established in the Library. It is hoped that interest in this section will steadily increase and thereby help the orchestra to develop both quality and quantity in order that it may become a greater and better organization in Seattle Pacific College. Page Thirty-eight The Cascade RADIO u ' - -pHIS is Station K J R, Seattle, broadcasting an hour’s program J- given by the Seattle Pacific College.” This was the announcement that was flung out on the ether every other Monday night to be picked up by thousands of listenersdn all the way from Florida to Alaska. That the programs were well received is shown by the fact that hundreds of letters have been received, com gratulating the school on its fine programs. One reason for the success of the broadcast has been the nature of the programs. The radio public is tiring of listening to nothing but jazz, and a program of sacred numbers strikes a responsive chord in their hearts. The work has been under the direction of the department of Music and Allied Arts. Especially fine has been the work of the various quartets. Their singing has been an inspiration to all who have heard it. There have also been splendid solo numbers by the members of the Voice Department, and some fine readings by students of the Department of Expression. Both teachers and students who have participated in these programs are to be congratulated on the character and quality of the programs. They have ably presented the school, and the things for which it stands. It is sincerely hoped that this work will be continued next year. Following are a few excerpts from letters received by the school from “radio fans” in different parts of the country: Great Falls, Montana. “The broadcast Monday night over K J R was very much enjoyed by a group in Montana who turned the dial backward and forward in hopes of just such a good program as you put on, and we wanted you to know that it was a blessing to our hearts.” Eureka, Calif. “Greatly enjoyed sacred numbers of tonight’s program. The quartet is now singing ’Heaven is my Home.’ I believe that radio fans would appreciate more such programs. God bless you!” Bashow, Alberta. “Had your college quartet on a threeAube radio. They came in very clear, loud and distinct.” North Battleford, Sask. “We very much appreciated the singing especially of the male quartet. It certainly is a real treat to hear some sacred music instead of the jazz that so often fills the air. Wishing your College every success in the future.” Nelson, B. C. “Allow me to return my very sincere thanks for the splendid program you gave us on the air last night. Kindly convey to all members who contributed to the program our best wishes.” Newberg, Oregon. “Greatly pleased with the radio program. Enjoyed so much the spiritual numbers. We feel to pr aise the Lord to have our school represented.” Rossland, B. C. “In appreciation of the program I heard over K J R. The male quartet did well, the cornet solo came in fine and the ladies’ quartet did excellently. I enjoyed your address on ’Successful Partnership.’ Also Royal Nelson in his solo, ’The King’s Highway.’ ” Page Thirty-nine The Cascade C. L. Ward Athletic Director This is Coach Ward’s second year at S. P. C. In his college days he starred in baseball and track at the Oregon State Normal. TENNIS I NTEREST in tennis as a major spring sport at S. P. C. is becoming keener every year. The College is turning out players that can hold their own in the best of tennis circles. The annual men’s singles elimination tournament is now getting under way. Lloyd Vincent, twice holder of the single’s trophy, is again in school. He will make it interesting for those challenging his crown. However, a number of ranking tennis players are on the campus this spring and the competition is certain to be keen. Besides the men’s singles, tournaments are scheduled for ladies’ singles, men’s doubles, and mixed doubles. BASKETBALL T HE basketball tournament of 1927 ' 28 was one of the most thrilling in years. A factor largely responsible for the success of the tournament was the Club plan of organisation. The student body was divided into three Clubs. Club No. 1, known as the Crows, was composed of Sophomore, Junior, and Senior men. Club No. 2, otherwise known as the Vikings, was composed of College Freshmen and Preparatory Seniors. Club No. 3, which answered to the call of Wolverines, was made up of Freshman, Sophomore, and Junior Preparatory stars. Each of the three Clubs entered strong teams in the first and second team tournaments. The Wolverines started the season with a rush and obtained an early lead. The Crows, however, after a slow start, came to life and displayed a brand of ball that brought them the title in both divisions. As a result of their double wins the Crows were presented the beautiful new Glen E. Carlson basketball trophy. Page Forty Lineups of Championship Crows First Team Second Team Wilson. Forward Blair.

Ralph Richards, star sprint, will compete for the last time, as he is graduating. Albert Virnont, a sprinter of ability, is also in school after sojourning last year at O. A. C. Charles Clarkson, last year’s track captain, did not return to S. P. C. He registered at the University of Washington where he has cinched a place on the varsity relay team. He will also run the sprints for Washington. MINOR SPORTS P LAYGROUND baseball has taken on added interest since the new diamond has been finished on the south side of the gymnasium. The Iroquois, Parvi Viri, and Magna Viri Athletic Clubs are fighting it out for the championship in playground baseball. Handball and volleyball are also favorite sports. A large crowd watched the Iroquois defeat the Oregon Club recently in a close game of volleyball. Page Forty-one The Cascade SIGMA PI KAPPA S IGMA PI KAPPA, organized for the purpose of sponsoring and promoting the debate activities of Seattle Pacific College, has concluded the third year of its existence under the able leadership of the following officers: President . Joy K. Evinger Vice ' President . Jesse Walter Secretary . Elva Shoemaker Treasurer . Fred Bach Wilbur McCormick, elected president for the first semester, resigned at the end of the first term, and Joy Evinger was chosen in his place. Featured at the regular meetings, which were held every two weeks, were debate discussions, luncheons, and the regular business. The membership of Sigma Pi Kappa is limited to twentyffive members. Plans for next year include more actual practice in debates to be staged between the members of the club in order to raise the standard of debate teams and in order to promote interest and activity in debate throughout the College. Miss Marston and Professor Henderlite were the coaches for the debate teams. Page Forty-two The Cascade INTERCOLLEGIATE DEBATES T HAT S. P. C. is not lacking in appreciation for this activity was shown by the attendance at the debates. Of the six forensic clashes scheduled, twice the number scheduled the preceding year, Sigma Pi Kappa won two and lost four, taking eight of the eighteen decisions of the judges. The schedule was as follows: First Question: Resolved, That American investors and investments in foreign countries should be protected only by the government of the country in which the investment is made. S. P. C. vs. Washington State College. Dorothy Harris and Joy Evinger upheld the affirmative. S. P. C. vs. Pacific Lutheran College (Men’s dual debate). At S. P. C., Russell Bisnett and Louis Watkins upheld the negative. At P. L. C., Jesse Walter and Joy Evinger upheld the affirmative. Second Question: Resolved, That the intervention of the United States in Nicaragua is justifiable. S. P. C. vs. Pacific Lutheran College (Ladies’ dual debate). At S. P. C., Helen Knowlton and Melba Stephens upheld the affirm¬ ative. At P. L. C., Pearl Steiner and Elva Shoemaker upheld the negative. Page Forty-three Th e Cascade OREGON CLUB CALIFORNIA CLUB Page Forty-four STUDENT COUNCIL T HE most representative body of the school is the Student Council. It is composed of one faculty member, one representative from each of the College and Senior High School classes, and the Student Directors of Religious, Social and Athletic activities. The presidents of each of the classes are honorary mem¬ bers of the Council, and the President and Secretary of the Student Body act in the same capacity for the Council. The aim of the Council is to carry on the executive business of the students and to promote those extra-curricular activities which are beneficial to the students. Besides appropriating funds for athletics, approving bills, and supervising the election of Student Body officers, the Student Council has, during this school year, financed the intercollegiate Debates of the Student Body, financed the building of two new handball courts, arranged for the Student-Teacher Reception given in the Ladies’ Hall, and supervised the arrangements for the All-College Excursion to Camp Parsons.

It is expected that each new member will at once begin to share in the activities and responsibilities of the Association. The future of Seattle Pacific College is, in a very real sense, in the hands of the Alumni Asso¬ ciation. The graduates can and will do much to shape the policy and determine the destiny of this institution. The seven objectives of education which are stressed so much in the public educational institutions are very worthy and commendable, but at best fall short of the objectives and ideals of Seattle Pacific College. The public schools are emphasizing Health, Fundamental Processes, Worthy Home Membership, Vocation, Citizenship, Worthy Use of Leisure, and Ethical Character. In addition to these aims and objectives Seattle Pacific College is emphasizing vital Christianity which insures to the students embracing it, noble character and effective Christian service. It is the hope of the Alumni Association that each member will make a worthy contribution to the day and age in which he lives by carrying into the daily activities the practical application of the ideals of Seattle Pacific College, and thus adorn the name of his Alma Mater. Speak well of the College. Urge your friends to come this way. Use your influence in directing financial backing this way. Boost the Endowment Fund Program of the Association and the College. Keep in touch with the school. Subscribe for the Seattle Pacific College News and pass the paper on to your friends. Send in your criticism and thus aid the staff. If you are satisfied with the “set of the sail” and feel that the College program is being carried through in a commendable manner, write and tell the president so. It will not cost you much; it will be worth a great deal to him. When you leave these walls remember that you are a graduate of Seattle Pacific College and that much is expected of you. Page Forty-seven The Cascade MY TEMPLE I stood one day in a temple conceived of man ' s desire, And heard the soft ' toned organ, the chanting of the choir; I felt an awe majestic come o ' er my troubled soul, But naught of God there entered to cleanse my heart so foul. I thought one day in this temple and my thought was one of greed. Untouched by peace and indness, no thought of others ' need. My pride, unbridled, tainted my heart in its desire; My soul at its own bidding deep wallowed in the mire. I dreamed one day in this temple and my dreams were idly vain, Sordid and full of malice, tarnished with selfish stain. I prayed one day in this temple, a fervent earnest prayer; A [o answer calmed my spirit — God ' s presence was not there. I stood one day in a temple unstained by worldly care; Its arches were the branches, its carpet mosses fair. Ho need of ncUrobed choir; there was no rented pew, The windows mottled golden, the ceilings wondrous blue. I thought one day in this temple, and my thoughts were free from dross, As the filtered sunlight blotchings athwart the velvet moss; I prayed one day in this temple, a humble heartfelt plea. That bro e sin ' s darl ( enthrallment and set my bound soul free. I dreamed one day in this temple, and my dreams were high and pure As the cloudless s y above me, as lofty and as sure; Np passing lightsome fancy nor gusty passion breath. Dreams that would await secure the silent hand of death. And now, when my soul is sickened with sordidness and sin, And seeing the mad scramble that worldly fortunes win, I leave the seething turmoil and go to my temple fine, To feel a calming presence and clasp the hand divine. —Lloyd Vincent.

Oh, what a day when thirty young and inexperienced culprits met for the first time in the old Administration Building to organise their first class! The first president, Miss Mildred Cartwright, should be praised for her work in mastering the unconquered youth, for in those meetings, as in most freshman meetings, order was not of the best. It was interesting to notice the change in attitude of the class, for as a snowball melts in the midst of a furnace blast, so suddenly did our freshman pride vanish as we mingled and rubbed elbows with the dignified and the learned. During the second year we laid aside our childish things and strove to become students in a more real sense. How quickly the junior year did come! Upon taking inventory we found some of our members had fallen out by the wayside. Perhaps they had forgotten our motto: “Climb, though the rocks be rugged.” Now our expectations are realised and our names have been inscribed on the senior roll. But our thirst for knowledge has not yet been satisfied. We have mastered the smaller things; let us now strive for greater things! The class of ’28 is greatly indebted to the President and the faculty for their words of encouragement and their Christian example. We do not expect to stop climbing, for still we say, “We will climb though the rocks be rugged.” THE SENIOR’S DOOM 4938 Lost in a forest of buildings And confusion of the day ' s traffic stream, I came to a great intersection And crossed when the light wasn ' t green; A shrill whistle halted my footsteps On the busiest streets of Manhattan I turned in surprise to the blue ' Coat Whom I once new as young Wendell Patten. I stopped at an alley ' Street restaurant Where shop girls and laborers were eating — Oh, horrors! The girl flipping flapjac s Was no other than Miriam Keating. (over) Page Fifty-three The Cascade Then timid, I entered and seated. Amused at her business i e air; Then a voice, still familiar, beside me One McCormic , of Wall Street, was there. I had heard so many strange changes Tet dreamed not of such things as these — Was it grape juice, — no, the weather I decided And a wal ' neath the Madison Square trees. On the right stood a brilliant cathedral With chime towers and many a spire; The Reverend, I learned, was R. Thompson, JJow batching with HanMiller, Esquire. In the midst of my wanderings I lingered To gaze at a lady ' s long tresses Through a window, on which there was painted — “Mary Fos et, a Ma er of Dresses. As I tarried to greet her there entered Another I had nown in my life, Just dear little Evelyn, now serving As a prominent business man ' s wife. Again through the gay streets I journeyed, And rare things were to happen that day; For up the street came Paul Root In his usual whimsical way. In his hands were a pad and a pencil And he looked to be somewhat a sporter. Tis certain he lived up to ' s ambition, For he was a paper reporter. Well versed on affairs of the times. He spo e in allffnowmg ways — Of business, of pleasure, and of people. And friendships of past college days. Young Jffelson, who, past expectations, Lacked not in high hopes as of yore, Inspired by his music, rose higher And was boss of a second hand store. What wonders shall ever be wrought! I remember one fellow so stern, And no one would have guessed that just Dellno — Could manage a jewelry concern. Page Fifty-four The Cascade V[or that Ivan would reach a profession With invalids under his care, And Virginia and Ilia in the great city To assist in his hospital there. Ere I left I purchased a paper And set me to reading a piece Of something concerning a scandal, And Edwards, the chief of police. In silence, I walked all amazement And saw what nigh caused me to faint, For m a show window sat Ray Bishop Tinting canvas to advertise paint. A feeling of sadness passed o ' er me For the petals of time so unfurl ' d And memories of those who once new me Revealed but a new and strange world. There lost in such thoughts I stood gazing Till suddenly my wea heart turned sic ; In a street ' Wor ing crew stood old Roy Engaged with a shovel and pic . Few words he spo e, telling the fate Of others who lived by the day, Of Beatrice writing boo s, and of Warren In love still and for bread pitching hay, Of Leona whose power of dictation Had made her a teacher of school Just living, and giving, and helping Others to abide by the rule. Before closing these lines and forgetting Another, and all that ' s been said You ' ll pardon, I ' m sure, just to mention That Viable is now an old maid. So passed all the wonders and faces; Yet I m a frenzy of mind To now if I equaled the average In time still, or ten years behind. A decade has passed, just imagine, Since I scribbled these lines, and you bet, When the year ' 39 comes around I ' ll be thinking in prophecies yet. —Ralph Leise Page Fifty-five The Cascade HIGH SCHOOL JUNIORS Top Row —Burton Moyer, Ward Losey, Willard Glazier, Ellis Arnold, James Hoffman, Stephen Treadway, Sterling Clark, Donald Sater.

Student Representative W HAT appropriate title can be given to the Juniors? When Freshmen, the group was ridiculed for every tiny mistake and hailed throughout the school as The Greenhorns. Last year the title of Sophomores was assumed; this year, the Jolly Juniors. Yes, and jolly is the class. How often the reprimand for lack of proper regard to the preparation of lessons! Among the class functions of the year, three hikes are outstanding—two with the Seniors to Fort Lawton and Manchester, and one to Golden Gardens. With the exception of two members, the class joined the boat expedition up Hood’s Canal. In the first part of May, various members of the group entertained at the Tuesday morning chapel with an unusual and interesting program. The Junior class has the distinction of having contributed one hundred per cent, in subscriptions of one hundred dollars each, to the Endowment Fund. As the year is coming to a close, each one of the twenty-three members of the class is looking forward to the time next year when he will be classed among the dignified Seniors.

Vice-President Jack Hurd . Secretary Helen McDonald . Treasurer Melba Cecil . Reporter Herman Smith . Student Representative T HE High School Sophomores, who have enjoyed many good times, are a peppy and loyal group. Terror struck the hearts of the poor Freshmen on Hallowe’en night while the cruehhearted Sophomores were manipulating their mysterious pranks. Why do not the Freshmen like ginger snaps followed by ice cold drinks? This question, no doubt, will be answered by the Freshmen next year. Who were those happy people at Golden Gardens on Washington’s birth¬ day? They were the High School Sophomores. On the way out, the street car was turned into a music car. On arriving, the boys proved themselves to be real fire builders. The High School Sophomores discovered that Fyle Watson and Amsden Axelson were excellent food preparers. Games were played and boats were rented. At night the class engaged in singing many songs around a big bonfire. The guests of honor were Mr. and Mrs. Wees and Mrs. Slingerland. The High School Sophomores certainly appreciate the good advice and cooperation the Class Adviser, Miss Burns, has given throughout this year. The class promises loyalty to one another and to S. P. C. And here’s to President Watson and Dean Moyer and the faculty for the kindness and interest they have shown throughout the year. The goal of this group is to be better students, to be real helpers to our fellow students, to benefit S. P. C., to leave behind a good record, and to be real workers for God, who has made possible all that is good in life. Page Fifty-nine The Cascade A T the beginning of the school year, a new club, The Ukelady Strummers, was organized to give as a contribution to the school, a generous amount of “pep.” Ukelady Strummers was agreed upon as the name of the organization, and Mildred Orr was elected president. The membership was limited to twelve. Black and white were chosen as colors, signifying shadow and sunshine. To scatter sunshine wherever the shadow is found became the object of these girls; they felt that those who share happiness find greater happiness. The Ukelady Strummers have fulfilled their mission of scattering sunshine during the past year. They have brought cheer at different times by singing for members of the community who were ill. They have given musical programs in both of the college dining rooms, two public programs before the student body assembly, and several programs in th e Junior High assembly. They have enter¬ tained at the University Ladies’ Progress Club, at the Cascade Program, and at several society meetings in the community. The club, in contributing to the enjoyment of many, has proved itself worthy. Page Sixty 1 IROQUOIS Page Sixty-one PHILOPOL DEBATE CLUB T HIS school for several years past has been very successful in winning debates over sister schools of the Northwest, but the debaters have all come from the College Department. Many have felt the need of an organisation on the same line for the Senior High School; by faithful cooperation between students and faculty this dream has been realized. At the beginning of the year many answered the call and a rousing club was organized. This club was not confined to debating only, but felt the need of caring for the physical also. This resulted in several enjoyable luncheons, which were followed by debates and group discussions of benefit to all attending. All believe that a foundation has been laid and that next year there will be interscholastic activity from the Senior High Debating Club. The word Philopol, from the Greek, means “friendly war.” As no teams outside the club were met this year, de bating was, then, friendly war.
