Foreword We realize that the Gem of 1933 is vastly different from any pre- vious book. No attempt has been made to carry out any special theme because we believe that our school life is the only theme with which we are concerned, and there- fore we would ask you to consider the art work as having only decor- ative purposes. This has been an unusual year and we have faced many handicaps. Every effort has been made to keep within the limits of our budget and avoid placing any unpaid expenses on the school. This book repre- sents our best efforts, and we pre- sent it to you without apologies. Where youth meets youth And cares are free.

Page Eighteen Senior Reminiscences Four years have nearly elapsed since we came to Taylor and the Class of 1933 finds itself nearing the end of its college career. These years have meant much to us, and as we think back over them we know that they have added much. We know, too, that as we leave we will lose something that can neve r be returned, and as we go our hearts are filled with thoughts of college days, and college friends, things that will be left behind. But let us turn from melancholy thoughts, and remind ourselves of some of the pleasanter things that have come to our lives. First of all, in our Freshmen year we learned to wear green hats becom- ingly, and then we followed in our Sophomore year with greater laurels. We carried off the honors in the track meet, and came within a breath of taking the basketball trophy. Last year the Junior-Senior Ban- quet crowned our stay at Taylor and this year, in addition to this same event, we look toward Com- mencement and new life. But in addition to pleasant events, and pleasant thoughts these years have given us pleasant dreams for the future, and we look with expectant hearts towards the possibilities of successful lives.

We have lost the greenness of the Freshmen. The frivolity of the Sophomore has been tempered into a good jolly spirit. And then to climax it we have been in contact with the dignity of the Seniors long enough to gain a degree of poise. Under the leadership of our Presi- dent, Marvin Schilling, we feel that we have been loyal Juniors during the past year. In keeping with our jolly spirit we spent many pleasant hours in fun making. One of these never-to-be- forgotten times was the merry sleigh ride after which our spon- sor, Dr. Furbay, let us convert the biology laboratory into a recreation hall. Sandwiches and coffee never tasted better ! The dignity of our group was up- held by the Junior-Senior banquet. The Seniors started out not know- ing whither they were going, but they soon found themselves in the Spencer Hotel in Marion, where all enjoyed a banquet which even sur- passed the expectations of the Juniors. In keeping with the true spirit of Taylor, we flavoured our class diet with a generous sprinkling of spiritual life. Much of the success of the class is attributed to the Fri- day noon prayer and fellowship services. As we look back we are happy, for our group has achieved success; many of the members have held important offices. As we look for- ward we expect to do even greater things next year as Seniors.

Stuart, Tooley, Walhof, Weaver Sophomore Class Is Victorious In Athletics The Freshman class that entered Taylor in the fall of ' 31 was known on the campus as the great green wave because it was the largest class in the history of the school. Since that time we have made the class influ- ential in the activities of the school. As Freshmen we did riot feel ashamed of our green apparel, but strove to give it a place of prominence on the campus. How well we succeeded could be attested by the envious looks of the upper classmen following the class basketball series in which we won every game. This year we did the unusual by again capturing the series in three straight games, thus making one of the best records of any class in recent years. As Sophomores, under the efficient leadership of our president, Har- rison Dawes, we have made much progress. Not only have we been out- standing as a class in athletics, but we have taken a prominent part in other campus activities as well. The Sophomore contest Echo placed third in the school rating, although it was only thirty points below the winning paper, which was exceptionally high, and this shows the high quality of the Sophomore paper. The Easter breakfast provided an impressive pro- gram, an ample menu, and altogether was one of the best breakfasts ever served. As we look to the future we anxiously anticipate the new honors and achievements which will be ours as Juniors. Much of our progress has been due to our able and willing sponsor, Professor Cornwell, who has en- tered whole-heartedly into all of the interests and activities of the class.

Representatives came from the backwoods of upstate New York and the mosquito-infested swamp land of New Jersey, from the rolling plains of the Middle-West, and from the foothills of the Himalayas. At first confusion reigned amidst the activities of Freshman Day, registration , receptions, dining hall regulations, and the Junior Rules com- mittee. But out of chaos there finally came a semblance of order. A few were early victims of the English entrance examinations while others fell before the more subtle attack of Dan Cupid. The Freshman Contest Echo, although receiving last place in the stand- ing, was well above the corresponding paper of former years. Hard hit by ineligibility, the Freshman boys ' basketball team lost all three games in the inter-class series, but the girls were somewhat more fortunate, losing the championship to the Juniors by only a few points. During the year much progress has been made. There has been a good class spirit displayed, and everyone has cooperated whole-heartedly in all the activities of the class. The all-school April Fool ' s party, which was staged by the Freshmen, was one of the best events of its kind held on the campus. There is still a question in the minds of many of the Freshmen as to whether or not four short years will actually transform them into sauve, blase, sophisticated seniors, but off to an auspicious start under the able leadership and guidance of its president, Herbert Ayres, and its sponsor, Dean Holiman, the Class of ' 36 is destined to become a group of which Tay- lor may well be proud. Page Thirty-seven .-V Wm Boutelle ■;- ,n I Buckner Bush Case, Ida Cookingham tjMii Irwin, E. Phipps B N I Poorman Redinger • ■ , Vanderlan K c na Vandervort ii White, Ida The Special Class There is one class on Taylor ' s campus which does not receive much in the way of recognition when it comes to interclass contests and games. This class has been termed the fifth wheel, but it is often the fifth wheel that saves the day. While it is quite true that the class is an as- sembled piece of work and that a great many jokes have been circulated about this group of students, yet they are a .jolly conglomeration about whom it has been truly said, They are with us always. Another thing to remember about a Special is that a Frosh is generally a Soph next, and a Junior usually a Senior, yet no one ever knows just what a Special will be next. Since this class is made up of those not following the regular courses of study, those not having enough credits to become Freshmen, and visitors, it is termed the Special Class. Its members are interested largely in music, art, and literature. These pursuits have led them into channels outside the regular classes, but no matter where their interest lies nor what their highest ambition is, they always find shelter in the Special section. In past years the Special Class has organized, selected class colors and an emblem and displayed as much class enthusiasm as any of the other classes. On several occasions they have published a class contest edition of the Echo and in these and many other ways they have made the class very influential on the campus. The class is small, and for this reason did not organize during the cur- rent year as has been the custom in the past. Many of its members have been accepted by the other classes as honorary members and thus they are enabled to receive the benefits of the class life and activities which mean so much to the college student. However, in spite of the present state of affairs, the Special Class cannot be counted out, for it is a tradition of long standing that the Special Class is always with us, and if in a few more years its members become more plentiful, you may rest assured that it will again organize and become once more an influential factor on the campus. Page Thirty-eight Philos Resolve To Present More Literary Programs It is quite generally agreed that an in- terval of time filled with many events passes rapidly, but when looked back upon as history it seems to have gone slowly. The past year of Philalethean activities is no exception to this rule. The Society Days this year were slightly altered from former ones. In keeping with the New Deal, instead of putting on a Philo Pep chapel, the regular chapel hour was ob- served in true Society Day custom. Pen- nants, streamers, and signs a-la-Burma Shave style left no doubt in any one ' s mind that the blue and white was king for a day. The initial program of the Philaletheans, The Japanese Nightingale climaxed the day and everyone retired to gain a few winks before the fray of Rush Day commenced. When the smoke of Rush Day had clear- ed away the Philos found thirty-four of the sixty-one new students had chosen to wear the blue and white as their society colors. Hallowe ' en proved to be the date when these were initiated by the annual Philo hay ride. This year Matthews was the destination where the Philo Carnival was attended. The new members completed their initiation when they made their debut in a program depicting the events of a day in Mother Goose ' s school-room. The Thalonian and Philalethean Lit- erary Societies combined their efforts and gave the school a real treat when they presented Professor Charles Hansen, the blind organist, in a recital on February seventeenth. A second treat equally as great was offered by the Philos when Barton Rees Pogue was presented in a recital of his poetry, assisted by the Philo Men ' s trio. In looking back over these events we can see why the time slipped by so rapidly and the year has gone before we realized it. The sports events do not appear so cheerful to the Philos but in their defeat the Philos had a good opportunity to show that one can be a good loser as well as a good winner. The Philo men lost three consecutive basketball games to the Thalo men. The women won the first game of their series but lost the next three, thus surrendering the series. At present Spring training for track is opening and every one is awaiting the results of Field Day, in the meantime the days are rapidly slipping by and soon we will be looking back upon the present as a history of pleasant events we should like to re-experience. Both societies seem to have realized that not enough at- tention has been given to literary programs, and this year they have made real efforts to right this wrong. Page Forty Thalos Plan To Draft New Constitution The Thalonian Spirit has carried the wearers of the orange and black through 1932-1933 successfully. Motivated by an un- usual rush clay the Thalos have held high the standards of programs, athletics, and literary contests. A pageant of Annus Thalonis was the initial program. This was followed by a new student program which displayed unusual originality and talent. The tradi- tional masquerade party with its witches and pumpkin pie was enjoyed by the society. The Christmas pageant, The Holy Grail, was presented again at Christmas, and the beauty, excellence, and dignity of the pageant was grippingly impressionistic. This pageant has become so popular that its pro- duction is now an annual event. This year interest was so keen that many churches in neighboring towns requested that it be pre- sented for them. These requests were granted whenever possible, and in every case an members of the cast. arisen enthusiastic reception awaited the The Philos with the Thalos presented in recital, Professor Hansen, the blind organist of Indianapolis, who loves and is loved in return by students of Taylor University. The athletic contests were enjoyed this year, and a fine spirit of sportmanship was displayed. It was the good fortune of the Thalos to cap- ture both the men ' s and women ' s trophies in basketball. But the Thalonian Literary Society is not an athletic association, as was demonstrated by the fine literary programs which it offered throughout the year. In the Spring term the annual literary contest will be held, and each year there is nearly as much interest and rivalry between the two societies in this as there is in athletics. It appears at this time that the events are pretty evenly divided, and it is not safe to venture a prophecy as to which society will take the honors. HHHwgH3§£fKl| A great deal of progress has been made by both societies | this year. There has been a friendly feeling which was dis- played on Rush Day, on the basketball court, and on the base- ball field. Perhaps one of the greatest accomplishments of the year was the appointment of a committee to draft a constitu- tion. Certain other reform measures were adopted, such as having the officers serve throughout the entire year, and the adoption of a resolution that the Soceity should give a least three literary programs each term. Thus it appears that the Literary Societies at Taylor are about to taken on new life and once more assume the place of prominence which they for- merly filled on the campus. Page Forty-one Eulogonians Produce Many Instructive Programs Founded for the purpose of fos- tering active participation in pub- lic speaking, thereby developing poise, confidence, and broadness of mind, the Eulogonian Debating Club has proved itself a valuable factor in securing a liberal education. Acting in conjunction with the fellow society, the Eureka Debat- ing Club, the Eulongonian Club sponsored an all-school frolic at the first of the year, uniting the student body in a solid band of friendship. Twice during the year the two clubs clashed in the strug- gle for the inter-club banner. For an hour each Saturday night the Club members embarrass them- selves in extemporaneous speeches, put the Club to sleep with stirring debates, or lose themselves in par- liamentary drill. During the current year the Club has experienced some difficulty in convincing its members that world problems can not be solved without their earnest attention. In fair- ness to our fellow club we record the lamentable fact that the fall debate was lost, solely because the judges could not be convinced of the necessity for the international cancellation of war debts. Time onlv can show their mistake. Professor Nystrom Selected As Club Sponsor By The Strong-Hearted Maidens Many of the Strong Hearted Maidens graduated last June leaving only eighteen members to start off this year ' s activities. As is the custom of the club an informal out-of-doors reception was given early in the Fall term in honor of the new girls. When the day came for them to make their choice of clubs, sixteen of them decided in favor of the Soangetahas. It was also necessary to select a new club sponsor at the beginning of the year. Professor Greer, who had acted in that capacity for the last three years, did not return. The Soangetahas felt themselves very fortunate when Professor Nystrom accepted the position. The privilege of honorary membership was extended to Mrs. Nystrom as she has always been interested in debating. The Soangetahas believe in a well-balanced program of activities. In view of this fact, various social affairs, distinct from debates and parliamentary procedure, were engaged in throughout the year. Thus, the social event following the reception for the new girls was a Christmas party, which was a source of much pleasure and amuse- ment to those who attended this function. Then, of course, in the Spring, the joint, formal banquet with their sister club, the Mnankas, will long be remembered by every Soangetaha. Everyone present expressed himself as well pleased with the delightful banqut which was served in Hartford City. Though the annual debate between the Soangetaha and Mnanka Debating Clubs was abandoned for this year. The deviation from customary practice will not be a per- manent feature, and as we view the activities of the past year we feel that the club has made much progress and materially strengthened its position among the permanent organizations of Taylor ' s Campus. Page Forty-two Mnankas Enjoy Year Of Progress The Mnanka Debating Club was organized October 7, 1921, in the parlors of the Swallow Roibin Dormitory. This year was started with a for- mal tea given for the new girls, in the parlors of the Campbell- Magee Dormitory. Following this, a week later, the new girls were taken into full membership of the Mnankas by Dr. Ayres, the club sponsor. The Banner, Weaver of Know- ledge, has been lifted high by the club ' s accomplishments as well as in curricular activities. During the club hours on Satur- day evenings, timid Mnankas have forgotten that scared, stiff sensa- tion and stepped out into the pres- ence of sister Mnankas to make names for themselves in the line of public appearance. The ability to think fast and act with grace and ease in public has been developed this year. The club hours are spent in three different types of train- ing: debating, parliamentary drill, and extemporaneous speech. There has been a good wholesome rivalry existing between the two clubs, the Mnankas and the Soan- getahas. They agreed to join forces in their annual Spring Banquet. Eurekans Fill Many Positions Of Honor The Eureka Debating Club comes to the close of its thirtieth year as a part of Tay- lor University. It was in 1903 that a few men organized this club and choose for a motto, Mind, the Power of Man. During these many years this motto has been in- stilled into the mind and heart of each Eurekan. What has been the result ? Men have come into the club inexperienced in the art of speech. Many of the same men have gone forth after a few years, proficient in parliamentary law, experienced in the art of argu- mentation, marked by their ability on the platform, and all in all more learned in the control and use of the mind. This has been an exceptional year. The Club furnished eight of the nine men on the Intercollegiate Debating Squad. Shields and Boyd, Editor and Business Manager of the Gem, are both members of the Eurekans. Bade is the assistant in the Biological Department. Thomas, Schilling and Ayres are class presidents, Senior, Junior, and Freshmen respectively. Boughton is Chairman of the Student Council. Wesche and Cates are ditor and Managing Editor of the Echo. Through the fine work of Messrs. Schilling, Ayres, and Bishop, the Eureka Debat- ing Club defeated the Eulogonians in the Winter term Inter-Club Debate, and regained the coveted victory banner. Throughout this year the club has stressed the programs of the weekly meetings. The three presidents, Bade, Gates, and Schilling, have had the fine cooperation of the Chairman of the Board of Censors. Many new ideas have been used and each man has had the opportunity and privilege of participating in these programs. Page Forty-three Le Circle Francais To those who do not know French, the name Le Circle Fran- cais ' will have no significance. It is the name given to the French Cluib. Since the original organi- zation of this club, it has been re- organized every fall term under the direction of Miss Gibson. It is made up of present and former French students. To enter the club one much have had at least two terms of the French language. The purpose of the club is to bring to the student a better understand- ing of French and to give him practice in speaking the language. At each meeting of the French Club, a very interesting program is given. Sometimes a talk on French art or literature, or one on the people of France may be given. Stories are read in French to make the student learn to understand French as it is read to him. Games are usually played in the meet- ings. These are a great help to all who participate, as they aid in de- veloping and broadening the vocabulary. In the dining hall a Frnech table is maintained at different times for the purpose of learning to use more fluently the French language. History Club Presents Interesting Chapel Programs The History Club is a popular organization at Taylor. Its bi-monthly meetings are a source of enlightening and interesting knowledge gleaned from the fields of past and current history. Its mission to the students is to keep them awake to and informed on events of vital interest and consequences in a fast and changing world. The History Club has frequently presented chapel programs in which much desir- able information and entertainment has been disseminated to those who availed them- selves of the privilege. One of these programs provided interesting reviews of three of the most prominent recent books. These books were then donated to the Library, where many students have taken advantage of the opportunity to read them. Though a new organization it is fast becoming an established institution at Taylor under the supervision of the head of the History Department, Dr. A. L. Bramlett. The activities of the past year have ibeen directed by Owen Shields, president, and an able board of censors. They have supplied programs rich and varied in content, and not without spicy entertainment. The History Club has a future, and, likewise, its members have a future. From its ranks may rise prominent statesmen of a future day, and outstanding citizens of a new age. No small part of the success of its members may be attributed to the training which they receive in presenting the various chapel and club programs in which nearly every member is enabled to participate. This valuable training in appearing before an audience makes the History Club one of the most beneficial organizations on the campus, and undoubtedly is the cause of much of its popularity with the students. Page Forty-four Prayer Band Offers Encouragement And Help Prayer Band holds a glorious heritage in the traditions of Tay- lor University, for within this group many students have had visions of service, brotherhood, and the love of the Master. It might well be called the Vision Band, for in it God is revealed and lives are transformed as a result. Bishop William Taylor saw God through prayer and left all to follow Him around the world. Dr. J. Frank (Nottingham saw God through pray- er and lost his life to find it in the heart of the Philippines. Mrs. Susan Talbott Wengatz and John Wengatz saw God through prayer and gave their all that their Afri- can brothers might have life. Dr. Brown saw God and carried the Torch to China. Just so, scores of students have had visions of God in Prayer Band, and are today work- ing at home and in the ends of the earth to win the world to Christ. Thus, we see the world-wide mis- sion of this prayer group. Some blessed experiences have come to the group who hr.ve at- tended Prayer Band this year, and each one has gone from the prayer hour with his heart encouraged. Many Well Known Missionaries Visit Campus During Past Year To serve the present age — the challange to youth which so many Taylor students have accepted. It is in answer to the call of the foreign field that many have sought to serve in other lands, and it is those who aspire to foreign service that form the Stu- dent Volunteer Band, and the nucleus of Taylor ' s Missionary Society. The Student Volunteer organization is nation-wide, and the Taylor group is active in the Indiana Branch. Out of the general interest of the student body in the work of missions, there has grown around this group the Taylor Missionary Society, dedicated to the furthering of world fellowship and Kingdom building. The meetings of the Volun- teers are bi-weekly, and a Missionary Rally Day is held once each term. The heritage of the society is rich, with the life of that great missionary, Bishop William Taylor, for whom the school is named, as the characterization of its spirit. It is further enriched by having scores of missionaries in fields all over the world. This year the society and the student body have been especially blessed iby having Dr. E. Stanley Jones, Dr. John F. Cottingham, and Dr. Willis R. Hotchkiss, as well as other inspiring speakers on the campus; and also by the fact that Miss Margaret Habermann, missionary to India, and Dr. John C. Wengatz, missionary to Africa, have made Taylor their headquarters while on furlough. The world of the present student body has been enlarged this year, both by friends who have gone to foreign lands — Misses Josephine and Marguerite Deyo, to Ancon, Panama, and Rev. and Mrs. Willard McLaughlin, with their daughter, Kathleen, to Ban- galore, S. India — and by the presence in the student body of two students from India, as well as the sons and daughters of several missionaries. Page Forty-five Girls ' Gospel Team Is Organized During Past Year Early in the school year the members of the Girls ' Gospel Team were banded together under the direction of the Dean of Women for mutual helpfulness, and to as- sist as opportunity afforded in Gos- pel services on the Campus and in outside communities. Weekly meet- ings for prayer and study have en- abled them to carry out the pur- pose expressed in their motto: Thy servants are ready to do whatsoever my Lord, the King, shall appoint. The services which they have conducted have been fruitful as well as affording a splendid training in leadership for those who will soon be out in a larger field of service. The Girls ' Quartet as an integral part of the organization has added the mes- sage in song to that of the testi- mony of the group. From a very modest beginning this organization has grown until it now fills an important need in the lives of many girls on Taylor ' s Campus, and we sincerely believe that greater things are in store for us as we become more firmly entrenched in the hearts of the students and the activities of the campus. Men ' s Ministerial Association Adopts New Motto This Year The Men ' s Ministerial Association of Taylor University is an active organization composed of young men who are expecting to enter the ministry. This organization was originally made up of young men and women, but later it was divided into the present Women Evangels and Men ' s Ministerial Association. The purpose of the Men ' s Ministerial Association is to give prospective ministers a chance for practical experience at preaching. The programs usually contain prac- tice preaching, lectures on ministerial etiquette, group discussions on ministerial prob- lems, question and answer groups led by the sponsor, and sometimes the entire time is taken up with prayer and singing. Men who are planning to enter the ministry find this one of the most helpful organizations on the campiis, for in these meetings the problems of the young minister are given consideration, and many helpful suggestions may be gleaned from the round table discussions often engaged in by the members. The motto of this group is: That Others Might Know Him. It was inaugurated in the Spring term of 1933, and has been the means of furnishing many prospective young ministers with inspiration and encouragement at the time when it was needed the most. The sponsor, who aids in solving perplexing questions, and acts as a steadying and guiding hand, is Dr. A. Lincoln Shute, the head of the Bible Department of Taylor Uni- versity. His vast knowledge and wide experiences make him especially valuable in this work. Those who are expecting to become ministers feel that this organization fills a vital need in their lives, and that its work is almost indispensible in preparing them to become effective ministers of the kingdom. Page Forty-six School Of Music Continues To Attract Large Number Of Students The School of Music, under the efficient direction of Professor Theodora Bothwell, continues to hold its position as one of the strongest schools of the University. Although the personnel is slightly diminished in number, the quality and high standing remains the same. For many years Taylor University has been famed for its exceptionally good Music School, and it continues to attract talented students from all parts of the country. The faculty is composed of the following artists and instructors: Theodora Bothwell, Mus. M., Di- rector, Piano and Organ; George Fenstermacher, M. A., Violin and Theory; Erwin Steucke, Mus. B., Voice and Public School Music; Sadie Louise Miller, children ' s work in piano; and F. H. Reiter, Band. The school is equipped with many pleasant piano practice rooms, a three manual Tellers-Kent organ, a two manual Estey organ and a pedal piano. EHtaHH The school holds weekly practice recitals besides the numerous recitals by individ- ual students. Among its other features are: the Orchestra, directed by Professor Fens- termacher; the Choral Society and Men ' s Glee Club, with Professor Steucke as director; and the Band, conducted by Mr. Reiter. All of these organizations contribute greatly to the musical life of the University and the students have learned to expect programs of exceptional quality from each of them. It has been the custom of the School of Music to offer a number of musical events of the highest quality each year. Two years ago the School sponsored a program given by the Fisk Jubilee Singers which was a rare privilege, and nearly every student took advantage of it. Last year the School presented the Welsh singers and once more the students received a real musical treat. This year the School of Music was unable to bring an outstanding feature becouse of the unusual financial conditions which have prevailed throughout the year. As a result every effort has been made to offset this deficiency by providing the best programs possible with its own talent. The large crowds in attendance at the various recitals seem to prove that the efforts have not been wholly in vain. Each year the Music School has sponsored a unique contest in which both Ladies ' and Men ' s Vocal Quartets have competed. Prizes were offered the winning quartets. Each year there was a great deal of competition and performances of the highest order were always assured. These contests have become very popular with the students as well as with the people of surrounding neighborhoods, and large crowds are always present at these events. Page Forty-seven Men ' s Glee Club Buys New Music The Men ' s Glee Club under the direction of Professor Erwin Steucke has been a course of in- valuable study in group singing. Practices have been scheduled reg- ularly each week. The enrollment has been constant throughout the year. Due to the large number of organ and piano recitals by stu- dents of the School of Music it has been impossible for the Club to give a public recital as it did last year. The work has therefore been confined to the instruction rooms where excellent harmony has been produced on works by such com- posers as Wagner, Schubert, Gou- nod, and Sullivan. English, Irish and American folk songs have oc- cupied much time, also. Last year the Men ' s Glee Club went to sing at several out-of-town gatherings. It also took part in the Washington ' s Birthday pro- gram, and gave an exceptionally good public recital which showed the real talent of its members. It is expected that under the leadership of Prof. Steucke the Glee Club may again attain music fame in this section of the country- New music has recently been pur- chased in order to meet the needs of the club. The members are very desirous of making it a real asset to the school. Plans Are Made For A Bigger Girl ' s Glee Club The Girl ' s Glee Club has been under the supervision and direction of Professor Steucke this year. The club was active during the first part of the year, but because of the small number able to participate in the weekly practices, the members thought it best to disband for the remainder of the year. Many of the members joined the Choral Society, and that organization has been greatly strengthened as a result. The Girls ' Glee Club is an organization of long standing on the campus. In past years the Club has gone to sing at several out-of-town functions and has from time to time given public recitals, and operettas in which a great wealth of well developed talent was displayed. It has always been the practice to include in their programs the best of both sacred and secular numbers, and thus they have been able to present varied and well rounded programs which never failed to meet with approval. The disbanding of the club this year does not mean that it has been permanently abolished. Because of the temporarily reduced enrollment almost every organization lias been taxed to the limit to carry on its programs successfully. Both the students and the director are anxious to create interest among the new students in order that a large number will be available to form a club next year. Plans are now being made to insure the efficient functioning of the club in the future on a much larger scale than ever before. There is a real need for a Girls ' Glee Club on the Campus, and it is felt that with an increase in the student body the club can very easily be reorganized. Page Forty-eight Band Appears In Public Concerts The Band of this year was organ- ized during the Fall term under the direction of Mr. Fred Reiter. Having studied the Art of Direct- ing under Professor Joseph Eliot, of Cincinnati, under Professor Matty of the University of Michi- gan, and in the Metropolitan School of Music at Indianapolis, he has been able to produce a very excel- lent band. He has also promoted a spirit of enthusiasm and a genuine love for the work itself, which are assets to any worthy organization. During the Winter Term the Band furnished the music for the banquet which crowned the pro- gram of the Grant County Corn Show, held in the Maytag Gymna- sium. The Annual Concert of the Band which was given during the Commencement season demonstrat- ed exquisite taste in selection and excellence in performance. The programs given by the Band have been varied in content and have consisted in snappy marches, over- tures, peppy school songs, and often difficult classical numbers which have been rendered in a truly descriptive manner that has won the applause and commenda- tion of the student body as well as off-campus friends. The organization itself and the Music Department wish to extend the greatest appreciation to Mr. Reiter for his gracious service. Plans Are Made For A Larger Orchestra Professor Fenstermacher and the University Orchestra have again lived up to the high standard of work set in previous years, and the orchestra has accomplished much this past year. Although we had to bid farewell to some of our best and most loyal members, sufficient new talent has been recruited to fill their places. The orchestra had charge of the entire chapel program on several occasions and amply lived up to its reputation with the programs which it rendered. The enthusiastic applause of the ' students showed that the beauty and quality of this work was greatly appreciated by them. Although the orchestra has not made as many public appearances this year as last, the quality of work produced has been high. Professor Fenstermacher is to be highly commended for the type of work he has done with non-profession players. Besides the regular University orchestra, a violin octette has also been organized as well as a smaller sixnpiece orchestra. The latter assisted in the conference program at Huntington, Indiana, where much satisfaction was expressed with the type and qual- ity of the programs which were given at nearly every session of the conference. The University Orchestra has long been an important factor in the life of the music school, largely because it has provided an opportunity for all instrumentalists of at least average ability to enjoy ensemble playing and to become acquainted with some of the standard orchestral compositions, and it has been greatly appreciated by both the school of music and the student body. An increase in membership as well as in the number of public appearances has been urged, and plans are being laid for a bigger and better orchestra. Page Forty-nine Choral Society Appears In The Production Of Well Known Cantata Talent, selected and refined by good training, always produces something worth while. Such is the case of the Choral Society which is under the direction of a new leader, Professor Steucke. This group has worked diligently all year in studying and mastering the world ' s great choral literature, and at certain seasons of the year it has made public appearances in which it gave these beautiful mas- terpieces. There is no doubt that the success of the Society is due to the fine leadership of Professor Steucke and to Miss Bothwell who accompanied at the organ. Throughout the year the group sang in Chapel services and at Sunday Vespers. The first out- standing appearance was in the production of Noel, by Henry Wessel, at the Christmas season. The Easter time was commemorated by the beautiful cantata, Olivet to Calvary, by J. H. Maunder. Needless to say, this offering thrill- ed the audience with its clear message of the reality and meaning of Easter Day. The Choral Society, along with the orchestra and band, furnished the music at the Com- mencement season. The crowning event of the Chorus was its ap- pearance on Baccalaureate Sunday. Home Economics Department Engages In Many Activities With the ushering in of industrial changes, household electrical equipment, and many new types of recreation, a great change has come about in the modern American home. Household duties have been so lightened that the present day housewife has more leisure time. Consequently she often becomes so enthusiastic over her social acitvities that the sadly neglected home becomes a mere shelter having no vital home spirit, and is in no sense self-sufficient. The problem for us today is to adjust our homes and homelife to the changes in civilization rather than long for the good old days which will never return. It is the privilege of every girl as she goes into the world to prove that the home can be a fore- taste of heaven, a place where discord and strife, anxiety and dissatisfaction, cannot enter; a place where joy and peace abide and where love reigns supreme. Perhaps some do not understand what constitutes a good home and how they may attain it. It is to prepare our girls for home efficiency that our Home Economics Department exists. During the current year this department has been very active. On one occasion they were guests on an inspection tour of a number of stores in Marion after which a delightful banquet was served. Miss Dare is the head of this Department at Taylor University. Her capability and enthusiasm make her most efficient for the position. Each year more and more girls are coming to realize this with the result that interest in this department has been constantly incrasing. Several new courses have been added to the curriculum with the result that a full major in Home Economics is now possible. Page Fifty Y. P. G. L. nianiH Convention To Be Held Here Next Year When the week draws to a close we cast aside the thought of studies and classes, then we gather in the Friday evening Holiness League meetings. There we forget, as it were, the things of earth and enjoy the blessings which God sends. Throughout the year the services under the leadership of our presi- dents, Stanley Boughton, Margaret Emmert, and Nathan Tyler, have been times of blessed fellowship and communion with the Holy Spirit. The programs of the year have been interestingly varied with both local and outside talent. These weekly meetings have brought forth ringing testimonies from those who have found new blessings and greater experiences . in Christian living. An unusual spirit has pervaded nearly every meeting and those present have been moved to enter heartily into every phase of the program whether it be singing hymns, offer- ing prayers, or listening to the inspiring words of some messenger of God. Thus the members feel that they have indeed been blessed by the presence of God in their weekly meetings, and they are ex- tremely anxious that this spirit should be prevalent on the campus, and that the Holiness League might continue to give spiritual blessings and inspiration to all who seek it. A lock may be a good lock and quite capable of performing its function, but it is of very little value unless we have the key to fit it. In the same way one may have a true Christian experience and yet be unable to help those about him to find Christ. The Holiness League provides an opportunity for every student to show by his presence that he is interested in the things of the Kingdom, by his testimony that he knows the Lord, and by his prayers that he is anxious to win souls. The Holiness League has been a nucleus of inspiration and spmtual power for the student body. May it continue throughout the coming years to live up to its motto: Holiness Unto the Lord. For the last four years the Holiness League has been recognized as the local chapter of the Young People ' s Gospel League, a national organization for the spread of Scriptural Holiness among young people. Although as an organization the Holiness League has not functioned this year as an active chapter, yet many of the members are vitally interested in the national organization. A group of them attended the National Convention held last November at Asbury College. One of this number, Percival Wesche, was elected as second vice-president of the Y. P. G.L. The Taylor student body is now looking forward with anticipation to the Y. P. G. L. Convention to be held here next fall. The true worth of Holiness League may be gleaned from the words of many Taylor graduates who have returned from time to time and testified to the abiding influence that it has had in their lives. Page Fifty-one 1933 Echo Staff Editor-in-Chief PERCIVAL WESCHE Managing Editor JO GATES News Editor RUTH TABBERER Sports Editor LYLE THOMAS Literary Editor HARRY GRIFFITHS Alumni Editor DONNIS HORINE Humor Editor FRANCES PELLEY Reporters ELLA MAE DAVIS, ROBERT JACOBS, LUCILE JONES, BLAINE BISHOP, LAUREN YORK, CLARENCE CAMPBELL Copy Reader FRANCES SCOTT Proof Readers NELSON BASTIAN DERWARD ABBEY Business Manager EARL WINTERS Circulation Manager BOB WEAVER Advertising Manager PETER PASCOE Assistant Circulation Mgr. JOHN WISKEMAN Secretary FLORA BOYLE Juniors Win The Class Echo Contest The Echo this year completed its twentieth year of publication in the form of a weekly paper. Though difficulties have presented themselves, throughout the year the Echo has been able to live up to its policy of presenting the news to the students, fac- ulty, and friends of Taylor in such a way as to represent the school as it really is. The staff has tried to make every edition of interest to its readers and always to maintain the journalistic standard of other years. A number of changes have been made in the Echo staff during the year, and many of these were not recognized in the list above due to the fact that the engraving was done early in the year. Harry Griffiths resigned his position at Literary Editor, and his place was taken by Lucile Jones, who is also a reporter on the staff. John Wiske- nian became Alumni Editor in place of Donnis Horine, when she did not return to school at the close of the Winter term. In addition to these changes Irene Tennant and De Witt Fowler were added to the staff as reporters to fill vacancies. During the year the Echo, like many other organizations, faced a severe financial problem. Because of this the staff was forced to abandon the original plan of publi- cation and early in the Winter term they started publishing bi-weekly. By this plan and by constant economy the staff was able to complete the year and leave a little money in the treasury. The students will never forget some of the features of the year. Few will forget the April Fool Edition. That was one paper which fooled us all, especially the splendid articles on the inside pages. The entire school was interested in the class contest papers. This year the contest was won by the Junior Class, which had a rating of 775 points. This was twenty points higher than the winning paper last year. The score for all of the papers was high, Seniors, 765, Sophomores, 745, and the Freshmen, 730.

It has been the constant aim and desire of the staff to produce a book that would portray successfully the life and activities of the campus. We have tried whenever possible to make it interesting and attractive, but we have found it necessary to give up many of our plans because of the expenses which they involved. Perhaps some of you will feel that you are receiving less for your money this year than formerly because of the reduction of the nuinber of pages. It is true that the book is smaller, but we have, for economical reasons, tried to place more on a page and thus utilize every bit of the space. We believ e that you will find that nothing vital has been omitted or neglected. We feel that the photography this year is exceptionally good, and we should like to take this opporunity of expressing our appreciation to Mr. Otis Forkner, our Gem Photographer, for the splendid work and cooperation received from him. We should also like to acknowledge our indebtedness to the Ft. Wayne Engraving Co. and the laylor University Press for their fine service and cooperation. We believe the snapshot section is one of the most important of the entire book, and therefore we have tried to make it as good as possible. This section has actually been increased this year, and we sincerely hope that you will find it very interesting and suggestive of many happy events. No mention is made here of indebtedness to members of the staff because we realize that this book is a product of the united labor and cooperation of the entire staff, and that it would not have been possible, in its present form, without the whole-hearted support and cooperation of every member of the staff. We have constructed the book as we thought best, and now we present it to you trusting that it will meet with your approval. Page Fifty-three Student Council Is Active This Year The Student Council is composed this year of only four members, due to the fail- ure of the Special Class to oi-ganize. There is one representative from each class with the Senior member acting as president and the Junior mamlber serving as secretary. The Council has endeavored to create a spirit of unity and cooperation between the students and faculty, and at all times to secure a mutual understanding between them upon matters falling within its jur- isdiction. The council, together with the help of the Junior rules committee, a special inter-society council, and the cooperation of the two literary societies instituted some new regulations that provided a very wholesome atmosphere during pre-rush day activities. It is believed that student opinion and cooperation gave new power to the council in this respect, which is a sign of progress for this rising organization. Throughout the year the council has pro- vided entertainment for the weekly dinner given Iby our hostess, Miss Dare, and it has cooperated with her to make this a pleas- ant affair for the students. During the first week of school, a new student reception was sponsored by the council, also a couple of student group meetings were held for the purpose of fostering and maintaining our good old Taylor Spirit. Debaters Rank High In Manchester Tournament Taylor has, in the past, produced some notable debaters, and each year her teams have ranked with the best in this section of the state. This year a fine schedule was ar- ranged under the supervision of Dr. C. L. Nystrom, the new head of the Speech De- partment. Mr. Harry Griffiths again took charge of coaching the teams and a squad of eight men made the journey to North Manchester to participate in the annual de- bate tournament there. There were thirty- eight colleges, with more than eighty teams represented at this tournament, and an ac- curate record was kept of all the debates. On the basis of this record Taylor was placed seventh among the thirty-eight schools represented. The question debated this year was, Resolved: That at least fifty per cent of the revenue for state and local purposes should be derived from sources other than that of tangible property. The squad was organized into two affirmative teams and one negative . The teams were well bal- anced and proved to be exceptionally good in their delivery. Griffiths, Smith, Boughton, and Thomas will be lost through graduation this year. Their absence will be felt keenly next year, but many new recruits are expected to be gathered from the incoming Freshman Class, and the prospects seem excellent for another strong team next year. Grant County Tournament Recreation at Taylor This has been one of the best years in the history of athletics at Taylor University. The principle objective has been to secure, for every student, the benefits implied in the original meaning of the word, re-creation. Regardless of the contemporary criticism of athletic competition games will remain with us. Their popularity with, prevalence among, and service to man are evidences of that. Nevertheless, there is a constant need to direct them toward legitimate educational goals if their social con- tribution is to be realized. In the Greek world in the clays of the Olympia the records show that those states which were doing something to advance intellectually were winning at Olympia and that as soon as they became stagnant or turned their intellectual life to the interests of military despotism they won no more. The Greeks held that gymnastic work was for health and athletics for competition, the first being personal and selfish, the second social and moral. Whenever the mass of the people give enthusiastic support to well directed athletics they can hardly fail to have the following results : They make for democracy and social equality; snobbery will not win the race. Athletics make for fairness and honesty; a cheater in a game is soon an outcast. Athletics make for self-control and patience; He that controlleth himself is greater than he that taketh a city. Athletics make for temper- ance; And every man that striveth in the game is temperate in all things. Athletics make for cooperation ; there never was greater need for team work in the world than at the present time. Athletics at Taylor stand for these things, and it is with these attain- ments in mind that all the students are given an opportunity to participate in one or more sports. Taylor is well equipped to carry on this work in the new Maytag Gymnasium, on the cinder track, on the ball diamond, and on the nine tennis courts. The entire program and policies are controlled by the newly organized T Club under the leadership ' of the director of athletics. As you peruse these next few pages keep in mind the above attainments as well as the marks made, remembering all the while that, when the One Great Scorer comes to mark against your name, He writes, not that you won or lost, but how you played the game. Page Fifty-six Maytag Gymnasium Our Director of Athletics Taylor University was extremely fortunate when A. H. Hersh Corn- well was secured to direct Taylor ' s athletic policies in the capacity of ath- letic director. Now, after two years of constant progress under his efficient direction, the faculty and student body are at last beginning to realize his true worth. Coach Cornwell did not come to Taylor unprepared for his task. He had had actual experience in nearly all phases of sport. During his college days at Southwestern College, Kansas, he was an outstanding, all-around athlete. He made the varsity team in four sports. For three years he was a lineman on the football squad. He played guard on the basketball team for two years, and he was also a member of the baseball and track teams for one year each. In addition, Hersh has completed considerable work in the department of Physical Education at the University of Wisconsin. Since coming to Taylor Hersh has put new life into Taylor sports. Largely through his efforts the Taylor T Club was organized, with its goal of making Taylor athletics better than ever before. During his first term here a new system of playing society tennis matches was introduced. It has been well received and is working efficiently at the present time. The athletes themselves are taking a new hold, and coming out to practice in increasingly large numbers. Not the least tribute to Coach Cornwell ' s industry and ability is the manner in which he has improved equipment. An outstanding improvement made during his first year was the finish- ing of one dressing room. The concrete floor was poured by student vol- unteer labor. At the same time the walls of the swimming pool were poured, and a check-room was also provided. Last year the County High School Invitational Basketball tourney was held at Taylor. The management of the tourna- ment was left entirely in Cornwell ' s hands. The county offi- cials were well pleased with the results of his efforts. Under Coach Cornwell ' s leadership, Taylor is looking for- ward to a new day in Christian athletics. We know that if we follow his coaching we shall become proficient in our chosen sports, and if we follow his leadership we shall attain new heights of Christian character. Page Fifty-seven Thalos Overwhelm Philos In Series Opener Thalos 53, Philos 14 The Society basketball men ' s series opened this year with an over- whelming Thalo victory. The Thalos pulled a bit of a surprise when they started a new man, Redinger, in a guard position. It was soon seen that the Thalo manager, Long, had made no mistake. He fitted in well with a combination which included Johnson, the star of the final game last year, Coldiron, Miller, and Tyler. This team started with the opening whistle and was never threatened. The Philos made a dashing appearance when they came on the floor outfitted in new blue suits with a large white P and numerals. Their starting line-up included Boughton, Griswold, Gates, Weaver, and Persons, but the Philo manager, Griswold, substituted freely in search of a combi- nation which could stem the Thalo onslaught. As the score shows he searched in vain. There were no outstanding scoring stars on either team. Five Thalo men scored eight points or above while five Philo men shared in the scoring of the Blue and White.

Page Fifty-eight Philos Again Bow To Powerful Thalo Quintet Thalos 35, Philos 20 The second game of the series was not even comparable to the first game. The Philo team was determined to atone as much as possible for the score of the previous game. I An indication of how well they succeeded is the score at the half which was 11-5 for the Thalos. This doesn ' t even re- semble the 21-7 half score of the first game. Each team had one new man in the starting line-up. Griffiths started at forward for the blue and white in place of Boughton. For the Thalos, Howard played guard for Redinger, who was out of town. As in the game before substitutions were made freely for both teams. Griswold and Thomas led the scoring for the Philos, making the credit- able total of 10 points and 6 points respectively. As before the orange and black scoring was well distributed, four men being within two points of each other. In the last quarter spurt, the Thalos who were rather peeved with their showing finally pulled away from their opponents to achieve the final score.

They only partially succeeded as the score shows. The Philos insisted on making a game of it. This game was very similar to the games which preceded it. The only marked difference was in the scoring of the Thalo team. Johnson had a hot night and ran up 13 points to place him at the head of the season ' s scorers. Redinger returning to the line-up after an absence of one game counted 8 points in the closing minutes of the game, after the rest of the Thalo reg- ulars had left the floor. He got them without much help by brilliant in- dividual play. Griswold again led the Philo scorers with six points. This placed him at the head of Philo scorers and fifth in the college scoring ranks. Griffiths played well in this game scoring 3 points as well as playing a fine defensive game.

The Philo men showed the effects of hard and determined training and carried the fight to the Thalos continually. Es- pecially noticeable was the marked improvement of Thomas and Griffiths. Thomas, in particular, showed the results of the lonely hours he put in practicing. The addition of Redinger and Miller to the already strong Thalo line- up put the series in a bag. The Thalo team was bigger and more experi- enced than the Philos, and this counted heavily in their favor. Miller played well during the series which was what was expected of him, so he didn ' t get much credit for it. Newcomers to Taylor were saved the disappointment of not seeing the Thalo jinx in action when Stuart was forced from the series with a bad knee received in an outside encounter. He played less than one half, but placed eighth in the college scoring. WHAT THE BOOKS SHOW THALOS PHILOS Johnson 30 Miller 23 Coldiron 22 Howard 19 Redinger 14 Stuart 8 Tyler 2 Griswold Griffiths .

For the first time in two years the Philo girls were considered as having a fine chance to upset the Thalo monopoly on the trophy. Both teams had fine new talent to replace the graduated stars, but the Thalos had no one to equal the size and under- the-basket ability of Witner. Soon after the game started Drake scored for the Philos. They were never headed after that first basket. At the half the Philos had what seemed a comfortable lead of 13-6. Upon the resumption of the second half the Thalo girls seemed to realize they would have to do something to save the day. Deich was shifted from guard to center and they started out after the flying Philos. How nearly they succeeded in overtaking them the Philos know best. It is enough to say that the tying basket was not counted, as Gilmore traveled with the ball. Gilmore was the offensive star for the Thalos. The Philo scoring was better balanced, all forward court players scoring. The guai ' ds of both teams played well.

So no one was terribly surprised when the two teams split the results of the first two games and tied at the end of the regular period. In the overtime the Thalos got the one point necessary to give them the edge on the series. In this game the work of those two stellar Thalo guards, L. Coby and Herrmann, was the outstanding feature. The game was nip and tuck throughout the first half. The score then was 11-10 for the Thalos. In the early stages of the second half the Philo girls seemed to wilt somewhat. But they made up for it in the final stages of the game when they came up with a rush. Miriam Pugh entered the game in the closing minute and vindicated the judgment of her coach by sinking the tying basket. In the overtime the control of the tip-off by Deich, the Thalo center, decided the outcome. The Philo scoring in this game was remarkably even, separated the totals of their three regular forwards.

The numerals were black, and a script Thalo modeled after the boys ' uniforms served to identify the society to which they belonged. This game was as thrilling as the first one, only now the situations were reversed. The Thalos took the lead from the first and held it long enough to have the verdict at the final whistle. At the half the score stood 12-8 in favor of the orange and black. The last half turned into a rather free scoring affair. The Thalos got most of their baskets from close in while the Philos were exceptionally ac- curate from a distance of the foul line. The whistle finally dashed Philo hopes when it caught them still trying to keep Gilmore from scoring when- ever she did. For the Thalos L. Coby and Bennett played fine games as guards, while Boyle seemed to find herself somewhat at forward. The Philos, Drake and Brothers, handled their scoring, while Jones and Kletzing played well as guards.

Coby Herrmann White Bennett Page Sixty-four Thalos Again Top Philos To Win Series Thalos 21, Philos 15 What became the final game of the Thalo series was played in the afternoon, due to the scheduling of other events. The Thalos entered this game handicapped by the loss of two regular guards, Bennett and L. Coby. In this game the Thalo girls took the lead from the first and held it throughout. At the half the score was 10-8, and they increased this lead until the whistle blew to end the series. This Thalo victory was largely due to the fine game played by Issy Deich. To her usual good floor game she added shooting and thus became a high scoring center. She had no monopoly on the heroics, however. Kletzing, the Philo guard, held Gilmore to 9 points. This probably caused Deich to break out in the aforementioned manner. Tooley added further to the embarrassment of Gilmore by continually intercepting passes. She played a daring and successful game. Herrmann deserves equal credit with Deich for the Thalo victory, because of her exceptional game at guard. It was largely due to her ef- forts that the Philo total was lower than for any other game of the series. The work of the Thalo substitute guards, White and R. Coby, far sur- passed the expectations of even the most rabid Thalo fan. The new comers presented the fireworks in this series, three Thalo regulars and one Philo regular coming in this class.

Due to the day there was only one out- standing ' performance and that was Campbell ' s record breaking half mile. He ran it in 2:16:6. Bud Coldiron was the meets high scorer with two firsts and two seconds for a total of six- teen points. Milt Persons came directly behind with fourteen points gleaned from one first and three seconds. The Thalos were handicapped by the loss of Long and Stuart on account of injuries.

Page Sixty-six Sophomore Men Are Again Victorious In Class Series The Sophomore men again came through to win the class basketball series without a loss. The Junior team finished second, and the Seniors and Freshmen finished in the order named. The Sophomore team won the championship by defeating the Freshmen 24-17, the Seniors 32-15, and the Juniors 31-14. The surprise game was the Sophomore- Freshman set-to. Due to the brilliant play of Miller, the Freshman center, his team was always close behind. He was particularly hot on long shots in this game. The Junior-Sophomore game was a disappointment to the fans. Last year these two teams put on a great battle, but the Juniors couldn ' t keep it inter- esting this year. (Stuart was especially good in this game, both on offense and defense.) The scores of the games having no bearing on the championship were : Juniors, 22 ; Seniors, 14 ; Jun- iors, 23 ; Frosh, 17 ; Seniors, 21 ; Frosh, 12. Junior Women Repeat As Class Champions The Junior girls again repeated their victories of last year and emerged the women ' s clas s basketball champions. They received quite a scare in the Freshman game, however, but finally won 29-27. This game was a thriller throughout. A strong Junior rally in the last half made the victory possible. To win the cup the Junior girls also defeated the Seniors 43-6. They won the Sophomore game on a forfeit. Helen Gilmore and Miriam Pugh were the outstanding workers in the forward court for the Juniors. The former again led the college scoring with a total of 41 points. Mim used her height to good advantage around the basket, taking plenty of time on her shots, and making them quite un- bothered by the smaller guards. Deich and Brown kept the Junior basket guarded in an exceptional way. Due to the difficulty the seniors and sophomores had in collecting enough girls for a team, the only other game played was the Freshman-Sophomore game in which the Freshmen won 18-5. The outstanding feature of the series was the play of the Freshmen girls. They displayed a teamwork which put to shame the team play of the upper classes. They had no indi- vidual stars, all the forwards being good shots, and the guards about even in ability. Page Sixty-seven New System Inaugurated Thalos Conquer Philos A new system of playing the society tennis series was inaugu- rated this spring. Under this plan boys ' and girls ' tennis is separated so each has his own series. In order to give more players a chance to compete two singlists are picked from each society, each of whom is to play both the singlists of the oppos- ing society. These singlists are ineligible to play doubles for their society. Thus four men are picked from each society and they are required to play five matches. The girls play under the same system, MEN ' S SERIES The surprising feature of the men ' s series was the refusal of the Philo players to fold up before a reputation. Before the series few people would have given the Philos an outside chance as the Thalos had Spaude, the college champion. Tennant nearly ruined the Thalo confidence when he succeeded in taking a hard fought set from Spaude but the veteran rallied in time to win the match 6-3, 5-7, 6-2. Against Gates, the Philo No. 2 man, Spaude was unbeatable and won handily by a score of 6-4, 6-1. Gates then took the court against Howard, the Thalo No. 2 man. This match, which was close throughout, was won by Howard, 7-5, 6-4. WOMEN ' S SERIES Everyone looked forward to the match between the vet- eran Philo, Margaret Wolf, and the rising Thalo star, Helen Gilmore. When it came no one was disappointed. It was a torrid battle, but experience turned the tide in favor of Miss Wolf. The score was 8-6, 5-7, 6-2. The battle of No. 2 women was also close with the Philo Kletzing winning in straight sets 6-4, 6-4. In the final match the Thalo substitute, Turbeville, was no match for Wolf who won in a romp 6-0, 6-4. Due to the lack of time the fourth and fifth matches of both the Men ' s and Women ' s series were not played. How- ever, they would have had no bearing on the outcome. Page Sixty-eight Philos Win In Hard fought Series The baseball series this spring required the full five games to decide the issue in favor of the Philos. The playing, although ragged in spots, was quite good. Three of the five games were de- cided by one run which shows the closeness of the series better than any words could describe. The smooth play of the Philo infield provided the margin of victory in the series. The play of both Philo and Thalo outfields showed marked improvement over the play of previous years. There was just one error com- mitted by the combined outfields on a fly ball. Musselman was the outstand- ing star for the Philos, playing consistent ball in the field and leading his team at bat with an average of .363. Griswold and Bauer played their usual brilliant ball both in the field and at bat. Campbell ' s pitching was unbeatable when he had a good day. For the Thalos Norton was the key man. He batted .434 for the series and pitched good ball throughout. Coldiron, with a batting average of .400, and Tyler, who played errorless ball in the field, were the other Thalo heroes. The score of the first game was 7-6 in favor of the Philos. But even that score doesn ' t show the closeness of the game. The winning run was scored in the ninth inning on a single, two stolen bases, and an error. The second game was a Thalo walk-away. Norton held the Philo bat- ters under control from the first, and the Thalos were never pushed. 10-2 was the score. It took fourteen innings to decide the third game. The Thalos had what seemed a safe lead of 7-2 at the beginning of the eighth inning. But Philo determination overcame this lead to win eventually 10-9. The fourth game was nearly the opposite of the third as the Philos lost 7-6 in regulation time after going into the seventh inning with a three run lead. This game was featured by some fine catches in the outfield. The fifth and deciding game was a distinct disappoint- ment as far as thrills are concerned. The Philos proved them- selves a championship outfit by stepping out and winning 13-4 behind the superb pitching of Campbell, and the steadiness of the ever-present Philo infield. Page Sixty-nine Letter Men Form Club To Promote Athletics This school year has brought to you and me, as students of Taylor, an unusual interest in athletics. Society and class athletics have added more than their customary quota to the sum total of this activity, and in addition there have been occasional rumors of the possibility of games with other schools. Another factor that has given luster to Taylor ' s program this year has been the awarding of letters for athletic attainment. A plan for this award has been worked out by Coach A. H. Cornwell, and under the terms of this plan ten men and four women were rewarded this year. As soon as these awards were announced the men so honored organized a T club. The idea is to work out this club much on the same plan as it is used in other schools. Its definite aims and ideals are to meet best the individual problems that Taylor faces in its athletic program, and so to direct its efforts as to cooperate most fully with the Director of Physical Education in solving these problems. To illustrate the place we hope the club will fill in Taylor ' s life, let us consider some of its objectives. One of the best of these is the placing in the trophy case of a trophy for yearly award to the individual selected as best exemplifying Taylor ' s standards of Christian sportsmanship and team play. Another plan is the working out of some method of properly preserv- ing the athletic records of the school, while still another is the improvement of the equipment of the athletic department by cooperation with the Coach in hard work and wise purchasing. The members of the T Club feel that there is much that can be done to improve the athletic situation at Taylor and they are losing no time in effecting some immediate remedies. In the past there has never been a united feeling, among the students, in support of the school. This has been largely due to the division created by the two Literary Societies, but it is felt that some friendly competition with neighboring colleges will do much to relieve this situation. With this in view several engagements have been made this spring for baseball games, tennis and track meets. Another important event was the revision of the daily schedule so that all classes are completed by four o ' clock in the afternoon. This makes it possible for every student to engage in some form of recreation daily. This measure has been greeted with great enthusiasm by the entire student bodv. In conclusion, the members of the club know that we already have many organizations, but they also feel that this is a field not adequately covered by any other, and that there is a place of helpfulness that can be filled by such an organization.
