Gordon Herrmann Lois Coby Alfred Hunter Dorothy Weaver THE STUDENT COUNCIL ' I ' he Student Council, representing trie student body of Taylor Uni- versity, is composed of four members. These .ire chosen each year by the respective classes, the senior member automatically becoming the president of the council. The freshman member is chosen by the upper- class representatives. The senior representative this year was Gordon Herrmann. Lois Coby was the junior member, Barry Hunter represented the sophomores, and Dorothy Weaver was chosen as the freshman member. The Student Council has worked with the Junior Rules Committee this year on such things as campus behavior and dining hall rules. Along with sponsoring the New Student Reception in the fall, it has attempted to work with the administration in such situations where a representative group from the student body was necessary. Among other things, the Student Council has drawn up a definite constitution for future Student Councils to go by. Quite a few plans and suggestions have come from the student body regarding changes, and these have been discussed in the light of plans for next year. The support from the student body and administration has been ex- cellent this year and has been very much appreciated. ¥ D E W 8 __.

In the year 1846 the public-spirited people of Fort Wayne, working with the North Indiana Methodist Conference, established the Fort Wayne Female Institute. Fourteen thousand dollars was subscribed to this enterprise and a committee composed of Samuel Edsall, P. H. Taylor and William Rockhill started to prepare the building plans. The main building was a four-story brick building with stone trim- mings, having a frontage of one hundred and seventy-five feet. Though plain, it was at the same time substantial, solid, and well arranged to accommodate five hundred students. Mr. Huestis was the first president, and under his labors one hundred students were enrolled. In 1848 G. M. Round became president and the student body was somewhat enlarged, but more important, there was an increase in funds, donations, and tuition fees. Rev. Cyrus was elected president in 1849 and held that position for one year. A new department, known as the Collegiate Institute, was organized in 1850. This was a male department and was kept apart as a distinct school from the Female College. In the same year, A. C. Huestis was again made president and the attendance that year again increased as well as the funds. At this same time the first commencement was held and three students were graduated. The Thalonian Society was organized in an attempt to better the literary societies. The motto, Know Thyself, was chosen, as well as the college colors, yellow and pink, which were later changed to orange and black. Soon two smaller societies, known as the Philosophian and the Excelsior, were combined to form the El Dorado Literary Society. T FT€ Cr e m It is probable that from this society our present Philalethean Literary Society was formed. Rev. Samuel Brenton was president of the college from 1853 to 1855 and then Rev. Reuben Robinson was elected. At the beginning of his term, in 185 5, the Fort Wayne Female College and the Fort Wayne Collegiate Institute combined and became known as Fort Wayne College. The rules and regulations of the college were firm and fair but not modern, as the following rules prove: The young ladies boarding in the institution shall rise at the ringing of the bell in the morning, adjust their rooms, and be engaged in study till breakfast. And it shall be the duty of the matron to see that these rules are complied with. Young ladies will at no time be permitted to visit the post-office, nor will any one be permitted to go to town oftener than once a week, and then only in company with some member of the Faculty, or some one appointed by a member of the Faculty. During the Sabbath day, walking on the streets or commons for pleasure, collecting in each other ' s rooms for idle conversation or amuse- ment, as well as all practices prohibited in well bred Christian homes, and receiving visitors are totally forbidden. Each student will be required to have the lights out in her room and to retire, by a quarter before ten o ' clock; and the Steward shall see that the house is closed at ten o ' clock. No young woman shall be permitted to contract debts or buy goods without the written consent of her parents or guardian; and a copy of such permission shall be handed to the President. Professor L. Beers became president and in 1872 Rev. Robinson again was elected president and served in that capacity until 1878. Under the supervision of W. F. Yocum the college was raised to a commanding position among the educational institutions of the state. In this same year there were eight graduates and the enrollment of the college was the highest of its history. In 1878, during the presidency of W. F. Yocum, the Philalethean Literary Society was organized. The members declared themselves Lov- ers of Truth and chose as their colors blue and white. After ten years of serving as president, W. F. Yocum was succeeded by H. N. Herrick. In 1890, because of a financial crisis, the Fort Wayne College sold out and changed its name to Taylor University in honor of Bishop William Taylor, at that time a local preacher of world- wide fame and remarkable accomplishments. The graduating class from the classical, elocutionary, bookkeeping, and stenographic courses had increased to sixteen. Dr. Thaddeus C. Reade, a noted educator, accepted the duties of president in 1891, and with his help the school was brought to Upland after the Land Company had donated ten thousand dollars and ten acres of land. Plans were drawn for an administration building, and work was started on the building that we know now as H. Maria Wright Hall. Luther Connelly of Upland dug the first shovelful of dirt and assisted in making the brick for the building. In 1893, before the building was completed, the panic swept the country, making funds difficult to get. A number of responsible citi- zens gave the school financial support through this difficult period. Dr. Reade met the situation by writing books, preaching, and lecturing throughout the country. He wrote a book on the life of Sammy Morris and in this way helped to pay expenses. The administration building was finally finished and the corner stone was laid by Bishop Taylor and Dr. Reade. The school was passing through a struggling period and Dr. Reade did much by his untiring labors, going through the country in the interest of the school. His physical body could not stand up under the load and he became unable to carry on the duties of the school. Then Dr. Ayres and Dr. Shilling did practically all of the work. However, Dr. Reade did not surrender the office as president until his health gave away and death came in 1902 as a release from worry and duty. He is buried on Taylor ' s campus and the university stands as a memorial to his work. For a year and a half Dr. Shilling and Dean B. W. Ayres carried on the duties of president. In 1904 Dr. C. W. Winchester became president and served until 1907, at which time Dr. A. R. Archibald served as acting president until the election of Dr. Monroe Vayhinger in 19(!f8 . I Dr. Vayhinger gave his time, money, labor, and prayers for TaylorA It was not until a few years after he took charge of the school that any one thought of beautifying the campus. Under his direction, a walk ' was laid from Sickler Hall to the administration building, and the date may still be seen on the walk east of Sickler. All of the buildings up to this time were heated separately. Finally, in 1911, a new heating plant was installed on the northeast corner of the campus. This plant after ten years of service was abandoned for the present heating plant. The Sunken Gardens, a gift of the class of 1925, replaced the old heating plant. Also, in the year 1911, Helena Memorial Music Hall was built. The building received its name in honor of Mrs. Helena Gehman who gave seven thousand dollars to be used for the building of this hall. Shreiner Auditorium was named after Mr. Shreiner of Pennsylvania, who also gave money to the school. At this time there was felt the need of a new girls ' dormitory, and Mr. Silas C. Swallow and his wife, whose family name was Robin, gave money for this building and as a result Swallow-Robin Hall was built. The farm was the result of a six thousand dollar gift by Mrs. McGrew, and in 1915 Mr. Campbell also gave sixteen thousand dollars for the purchase of additional land. These first few years of the twentieth century have been important stepping-stones in Taylor ' s history. The student body continued growing, and in 1917 there were three TnH € g e m hundred and fifty-seven students. With the growth of the student body there was a renewed growth in the activities of the school. During Dr. Vayhinger ' s administration, the Soangetaha Debating Club was or- ganized, and eight years later the Mnanka Debating Club. It should be noted here that the Eurekan Debating Club was born in 1903 and the Eulogonian some time later. The Holiness League, organized in 1895; the Prayer Band in 1899, and the Volunteer Band in 1901 are still among the religious organizations of the school. Although Dr. Vayhinger ' s term as president has expired, he may often be seen on the campus of the school for which he gave so much of his physical and spiritual strength. After thirteen years of building up Taylor, he went back into the work that brings him greatest joy — evangelism. Dr. Paul became president in 1922, and under his administration Magee-Campbell-Wisconsin dormitories were erected. The Maytag Gym- nasium was started and finally finished during the presidency of Dr. Robert Lee Stuart. Dr. Stuart, in the short time he has been in office, has done many things to make a bigger and better Taylor. APMD INI II STIR ATDOINI I 9 5 ROBERT LEE STUART, Ph. B., D. D. President t tt € g € rrr BURT W. AYRES, Ph. D. Vice-President PHILOSOPHY Philosophy is an attempt to see life stead ' ly and see it whole. The practical-minded sometimes say: Philosophy bakes no bread. No, but it interprets the meaning of life and human experience, and determines the fate of nations and the course of history. 5 J. ARTHUR HOWARD, A. M. Dean of the College SOCIOLOGY TThe Department of Sociology seeks to disclose a comprehensive analysis of the science of human relationships and the constituent factors of group control. Two principles are kept to the front: first, that members of society should be given the fullest and richest opportunities for developing their potential powers; and secondly, that any individual should give his life unselfishly in building the lives of other persons and the group. Thorough theoretical preparation is offered as a basis for practical courses of the Department of Social Service of graduate schools. It is hoped that the student will discover that group interests are his interests, that his life is made the richer as he enriches group life, and that he will learn the worth of the spiritual values of life, without which society is poor indeed. T TT € CT £ TTT ETHEL LENORE FOUST, A. M. THE DEAN OF WOMEN ( ollege life opens to young women many paths, secures wide opportunities, and re- leases inward powers for the building of right habits and attitudes and the development of well-rounded personalities. In the college en- vironment there should come to each young woman a broad outlook on life; a sense of dignity, with h umility; an intellectual curiosity and independence; and a strong Christian faith. The Dean of Women is to the college women, in their enriched environment, a friend and counsellor. She is ambitious for their highest possible development. She desires to see them go purposefully and happily through their col- lege careers and then out into challenging tasks of today, with trained minds and understand- ing hearts which seek not to be ministered unto but to minister. WILLIS HOLIMAN, A. M. THE DEAN OF MEN EDUCATION Industrial and social movements may come and go, but the education of a people should go on at a steady rate. There were last year in the United States approximately 30,- 000,000 boys and girls under the direction of about 1,000,000 men and women employed as teachers. One purpose of the Department of Education is to prepare teachers with knowl- edge that w ill mean thorough work; with an attitude of mind that will be healthy; with ideals that will prophesy success; with habits that will insure efficiency in service. We train teachers in the following fields: English, French, Latin, Mathematics, Music, Science, Social Sci- ences, and Speech. Another purpose of the Department of Education is to meet the needs of students who wish to take certain educa- tional courses for their general value, or for their value in social or religious activities. L 3 5 ENGLISH HTo the student of literature there are given many opportunities for the development of personality, for the enlargement of human ex- perience, and for the preparation of a chosen profession. In whatever field a profession lies, not only are the fundamentals of English Rhet- oric a necessary foundation on which to build, but also the great literatures of the ages are an invaluable asset. It is the fundamental purpose of the De- partment of English to so present its courses that the student may be challenged to seek out the wealth of thought and inspiration which has come down through the centuries, an inher- itance, to him who wills it so. GERALDINE ALLBRITTEN, A. M. PIANO AND ORGAN The School of Music of Taylor University is known in many states for the efficient instruction given in its various fields. Students are provided with a modern Music Hall, having up-to-date equipment in studios and practice rooms. The three-manual chapel organ is available for practice. The extra-cur- ricular activities of the Music School, such as the Choral Society and the Orchestra add to the cultural life of the college. The public recitals of advanced students in piano, organ, violin, and voice are also annual features of interest to the community. THEODORA BOTHWELL, Mus. M. T tf € G € 171 JAMES CHARBONNIER, A. M., B. D. BIBLE, THEOLOGY, AND GREEK ' T ' heology (Biblical and Systematic), if no longer the Queen of Sciences, always holds a chief place in human thinking. In Biblical Theology, students ascertain the facts of Scrip- ture, while in Systematic Theology they relate these facts to each other into an harmonious plan. Study of the other theological disciplines and of New Testament Greek will afford stu- dents a deeper understanding of the Oracles of God. Antiquity will always be a vital factor in education. Its imperishable value has a three- fold significance: intellectual, moral, and aes- thetic. The Classics teach us to think con- structively and clearly, to speak well, to write correctly and to judge rightly. The Greek sense of truth, beauty, harmony and poise is urgently needed now as a correc- tive. From the heights of the Acropolis, Athena is still inspiring the ages. PSYCHOLOGY Psychology is a study of the activities of the individual throughout the life span, com- paring child and adult, the normal and the abnormal, the human and the animal, one in- dividual and another, and dealing especially with the general laws of learning, thinking, and emotion in respect to which individuals are alike. A study of psychology should enable an individual to make a critical survey of a prob- lem in an impersonal and unprejudiced man- ner. A student of psychology should be more effective in the pursuit of his calling, whether it be in the teaching, writing, business, or religious field. ROSS EARL CONNELLY, A. M., Ph. D. £ 3 ECONOMICS pcoNOMics is something from which no one can escape, regardless of the industrial sys- tem under which he lives or in what part of the world he may find himself. In our economic courses we try to lay a foundation for the student that will be practical whether he goes into business or into some other walk of life. Hence, the survey or principles course, is studied from the institutional approach rather than from the strictly theoretical viewpoint. The other courses, taking tip labor and finance, are for those students who want to pursue problems of the introductory course more deeply. A. H. CORNWELL, Ph. M. RELIGIOUS EDUCATION AND MISSIONS Teachers of Religion report that one prob- lem in our colleges is to get students to study Bible and Religious Education. One great Mission Board reports, Seventy-three per cent of the church has erased missions entirely from its thinking. Taylor believes missions must be reconstructed on the princi- ples, Seek ye first His kingdom, Go ye therefore, and Tarry ye. We believe that Religious Education and Missions on this foun- dation will come again to a place of usefulness and power. Principles and methods of teaching are not neglected. The subject matter should be truth as revealed in the Word of God, filled with the spirit of the Living Christ. J. F. COTTINGHAM, D. D. T H € G € m HOME ECONOMICS HpHE field of Home Economics is gaining in recognition because it is becoming more practical and more nearly meets the needs of the modern home and home life. The field is broadening each year to include the many phases of the home and the individual differ- ences of its members. Although theory is necessary, the practical application is given special attention. The Department o f Home Economics is located in the Wisconsin Dormi- tory, and consists of a kitchen with modern equipment, a dining room, a clothing room, and a fitting room. The clothing room is easily converted into a living room for social occas- ions. IRMA DARE, A. M. SPEECH The ability to read and to speak is a funda- mental prerequisite to an education. To develop the art of grasping the meaning of what is read and of interpreting that into oral and expressive language is one of the funda- mental purposes of a department of speech. To develop the ability to think clearly, to express these thoughts in elegant and forceful English, and then to deliver them effectively and persuasively to an audience is another fun- damental purpose of a Department of Speech. WILBUR DENNIS, A. M. 5 PHYSICS Tn the past, many contributions have been made to man ' s material comfort and hap- piness because of discoveries in the realm of Physics; today, a vital and important contri- bution is being made to philosophy and re- ligion as well. According to many scientists, the new concepts of the electron demand an ever-present, ever-watchful intelligence gov- erning the universe. To one who believes the Bible, this is the God who calls the stars by name and who sees the sparrow ' s fall. Thus is science pointing the way back to God. OLIVE MAY DRAPER, A. M. ANCIENT LANGUAGES HThe civilized world is celebrating this year the two-thousandth anniversary of the birth of the poet Horace. This fact brings to mind his remarkable prediction of the per- manent character of his works and influence. In the last poem of the third book of Odes he wrote: I have completed a monument more enduring than bronze, ■ higher than the royal mass of the pyramids, which neither the cor- roding storm nor the uncontrolled North Wind, the successive numberless years nor the flight of time can overthrow. The ver- dict of posterity has confirmed his words. Per- haps no ancient writer has won a warmer place in the personal regard of modern men. He was the greatest of Roman lyric poets and has exerted a marked influence on the litera- ture of every nation since his day. This is part of the debt of an educated people to Rome. GEORGE EVANS, A. M., D. D. T TT € G. HARLOWE EVANS. M. S., Ph. D. CHEMISTRY Th£ theologian attempts to find and classify those phases of truth which might be called spiritual laws while the scientist seeks out and correlates those phases of truth which may be called physical laws. Since God is truth it is the Christian ' s privilege and duty to study all aspects of truth. Chemistry, because of its intimate relation to all branches of the rapidiy enlarging field of science, increases in interest and importance each year. The elementary courses offered in undergraduate work furnish a good foundation for post-graduate study in Chemistry as well as excellent background for the study of related sciences, such as Biology, Physics, Medicine, and Engineering. The laboratories are well equipped to serve those desiring to take Chem- istry. GEORGE FENSTERMACHER, A. M. GERMAN rjERMANV is today playing one of the lead- ing roles on the stage of European poli- tics. She has attracted the attention of the entire world. Naturally her language is being studied with increasing interest. Recent stud- ies of the popularity of German in the col- leges of the United States have disclosed the fact that the number of students of German is constantly growing. The beauty and strength of the literature of Germany is unquestioned. The names Goethe and Schiller are known to all. The roster of great German literary names is long. Because of the importance of writings and documents in the various fields of study written in the German language a reading knowledge of German is a distinct asset and is in many grad- uate schools a requirement. I 9 3 5 HOMILETICS T)reaching, which is said by many to be the greatest task of the preacher, has held a central place in the life and development of the Christian Church. The Apostle Paul in Romans 10:13-14 stresses the importance of the preacher with his message. For whoso- ever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved. How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher? Thus we are seeking to develop the Art of Preaching so that the pulpit may continue with its message of the Good News of Jesus Christ, which worketh for the salvation of men. The life of the Christian Church de- pends largely upon this art and its develop- ment. REV. JESSE W. FOX, A. B., S. T. B. FRENCH pDUCATED people of Europe know several for- eign languages and converse in, at least, two or three. This is largely due to each of the many small nations speaking a different tongue. We have not the same environment nor the same needs. Our appreciation of the people in other lands is increased by our fa- miliarity with their literature. Our world of thought is enriched by the contribution of their thinkers and writers, musicians and ar- tists. The Department of French, besides training in the ability to read, gives opportunities to put into practice by means of the Cercle Francais and the French table the knowledge gained in class work. Selections memorized, songs, and games, along with the conversation are helpful in gaining a mastery of the lan- guage which has contributed so much to the beauty of our own. SUSAN GIBSON, A. M. T TT C Gem IVEL GUILER, A. B. THE LIBRARY The Mooney Library contains over 13,000 volumes, a large number of pamphlets, and a good selection of general and technical mag- azines. The purpose of the Library is to supplement the class work with additional material to give breadth and inspiration to the knowledge ac- quired. Carlyle has said, After all manner of professors have done their best for us, the place we are to get knowledge is in books. The true university of these days is a collection of books. This is even more applicable to our day than to the day of Carlyle. To use books rightly is to go to them for help. Your col- lege days will be well spent if you have learned how to use books. If you are faced with the problem of leisure time when through col- lege, you will have taken a long step toward its solution by having learned to love books. For books are like friends we should return ro them again and again — for, like true friends, they will never fail us — never cease to instruct. MARY F. JONES, A. M. ANCIENT LANGUAGES The study of Latin and Greek languages and literature is an excellent training for the power of perception, judgment, imagination, observation, comparison, and generalization. They develop the power of expression; give insight into a basic civilization; clarify moral ideals, stimulate right conduct; furnish recrea- tion; give discipline and intellectual power. They develop such habits as sustained at- tention, accuracy, orderly procedure, neat- ness, thoroughness and perseverance. They in- crease ability to understand and appreciate ref- erences and allusions to the mythology, tradi- tions, and history of the Greeks and Romans in English literature and current publications. They also contain the roots of the choice liter- ature of modern language, whether poetry, philosophy, politics, law, romance, science, art, or religion. For those studying leadership, the study of Greek and Latin humanities is urged, because it affords intellectual discipline in determining the meaning of an author ' s discourse. 9 3 5 VOICE The Vocal Department of the School of Music offers splendid vocal training which cultivates the voice and develops a deeper ap- preciation for classical and modern music. Be- sides having an opportunity to study privately, students may sing in the Choral Society which presents several Oratorios and Cantatas during the year. RAYMOND KREINER, Mus. B. JUNIOR PIANO Prominent educators in music agree that it is very important to implant music in a child ' s mind at an early age. The person at- tempting to accomplish this important task should be as carefully trained for that specific work as is the primary or kindergarten teacher in the public school. The Junior Piano Department endeavors to keep abreast of modern methods in instructing both tiny tots and college students of the earlier grades. Children ' s recitals throughout the year not only give opportunity for children to express their accomplishments, but also to furnish de- lightful entertainment for the college and com- munity. SADIE L. MILLER m HISTORY Tn the modern era of world relationships it is of vital importance that all citizens should have an understanding of the fundamental social, political, and economic factors that have contributed to the evolutionary and rev- olutionary transformations of society. It is the purpose of the Department of History and Political Science to acquaint the student with these forces and to lead him into a helpful Christian interpretation and application of them. Furthermore, the social approach to the study of history is designed both to increase the interest of historical study and to enhance its personal value to the individual student. GEORGE T. OBORN, A. M., Ph. D. BIOLOGY TThe Department of Biology endeavors to give every student an understanding of the fun- damental laws that govern plant and animal life. Many of these laws of nature applv to the human family as well. Thus a broad cul- tural foundation is laid which aids in the so- lution of the problems of life. In addition, the department offers courses especially designed for pre-medical students, and for those who are preparing to teach biological courses in the secondary schools. The environment of the college provides many interesting plants and animals for study. The laboratory equipment is good. The col- lections of plants and animals from widely scattered sources, housed in the museum, help greatly in the instruction. The most famous exhibit is the skeleton of the mastodon discov- ered near Taylor in 1928. CLASSES 9 3 JOHN J. McCREERY GRADUATE STUDENT T HE graduating class of 1935 includes a person who will receive the Master of Arts in Theology degree. This graduate, John J. McCreery of Gaston, who finished his work for this degree in June, 1935, was graduated from Taylor University with an A. B. degree in 1934. Mr. Mc- Creery with Dr. A. Lincoln Shute and Dr. James Char- bonnier as advisors completed his thesis, The Religious Values of Correct Child Training. Mr. McCreery plans to go to the foreign mission field to serve God as a medical doctor. ttc c e m CLASS OF 193 5 Tn the fall of ' 31 the largest class in Taylor ' s history was introduced to college life. Eighty-six green, but promising Freshmen took their places and organized under the presidency of Harrison Dawes and the sponsorship of Professor Cornwell. The class adapted itself readily to the college program and assumed an important position in scholastic and extra curricular activities. As Sophomores, the class of ' 35 returned reduced in numbers, but it entered with zeal into the activities of the year. This year was climaxed by sponsoring the traditional Easter Break- fast; planned and served by the class, which was a very impressive and beautiful meal centered around the theme of the Cross. The Junior year was one of more responsibility and consequently more growth. The crowning feature of the y ear was the Junior-Senior banquet held in Re- creation Hall which was very effectively transformed into one of the childhood haunts of Hiawatha. The members of the class before leaving school have endeavored to ex- press their appreciation for Taylor by the gift of a curtain for the chapel. Now, as Seniors, they are preparing to leave with a great sense of love and appreciation for their Alma Mater — the end of four delightful years of growth, yet the beginning of greater tasks and increased prob- lems in a world of economic, social, and spiritual unrest. They are sor- rowful at the thought of leaving, but are ready to meet life with an as- surance in their hearts of the strength, both human and Divine, that they have received in Taylor ' s halls.

Its junior year started with the announcement of the Junior Rules. The crowning achievement of the year was the Junior-Senior banquet held at the Hart- ford City Hotel. Much of the success of the class is due to the inspirational Tuesday morning prayer meetings. In its religious life the class has been con- sistent and progressive. In the realm of athletics the girls ' basketball team won the interclass series. The boys ' team made a good showing, although it was not quite so fortunate. 3 5 HERBERT AYRES President A puzzle, even to himself. LORENA PORTER Vice-President Music hath charms.

Incarnate beauty ' s choir Soft anthems swell from shrubbery, grass and trees; Harmonious with the strains my spirit breathes — The melodies from a supernal lyre, — The airs of nature fill my joyous heart! Love seated there plays on a harp divine, While deep I drink the draughts of heav ' nly wine. Till sense lies victim of a mystic dart. And earthly tones in tranquil depths expire. My soul in an ascending kingdom dwells, A symphony of Olympian music swells — Till I am borne thro ' empyrean fire! O campus where I ' ve dreamed my sweetest dreams. Thy memories will brighten life ' s drear streams! Jeff Paul. 9 3 5 T7H € G € ffi THE SOPHOMORE CLASS Sophomores! A happy group seeking knowledge, full of gravity, gaiety, lovableness, mischief, studiousness, and that fortunate quality of talent. Last year we looked upon them as a promising young band. This year as they have taken their places in Taylor ' s halls with added assurance, due to the discarding of the green, we feel that they are ful- filling our expectations. Class week found the Sophs upholding their class spirit and colors clad in scarlet and black jackets. Although the Seniors and Juniors put aside their canes and keys and even the Freshmen, after a few weeks, hung up their caps, a Sophomore has always been recognized in any group on the campus because of his brilliant-hued jacket. In social and spirtiual life there has been a noticeable enthusiasm. A frivolous picnic in the fall, a more sedate party in the winter, and several frolics in the spring include some of their social activities. A remark- able union of the class and a reverent sincerity of each member has made the Wednesday morning prayer meetings ones of helpful fellow- ship and spiritual strengthening.

Freshmen are usually thought of as timid, panic- stricken, green, and backward; but these adjectives could not be applied to this group. After the warm welcome which Taylor always extends to her students, new and old, and after the annual New Student Recep- tion the Freshmen felt at home. At the first of the year the class elected Robert Haines for its president and Professor Harlowe Evans for its sponsor. The spiritual leadership was given to Stanley Way. Among the outstanding events that will be remembered by the Frosh were the wearing of the green during class week and the water that went with it. Along with other outstanding events the Freshmen can say that the first year at college has been very successful and an inter- esting one, broadening the visions and deepening the experiences.

THE STUDENT VOLUNTEERS Missionary-minded students find the inspiration and fellowship they desire in the bi-weekly meetings of Taylor ' s Student Volunteer Band. This band is the nucleus of the larger Taylor University Missionary So- ciety, whose membership is open not only to students and faculty mem- bers, but to alumni and friends of Taylor as well. This society aims, through the means of its yearly dues, to support a native worker in Angola, Africa. The crowning event of the year ' s activities came on February 16th and 17th, when the Taylor Student Volunteers were hosts to the twelfth annual spring conference of the Indiana Student Volunteer Union. Union officers elected for the next year include two from Taylor: Margaret Trefz, president, and Dorotha Crandall, editor News-Letter. Taylor Volunteers for Christ press on with the Union motto: All for Christ and Christ for all. 3 5 i ll PERSONNEL Row I : Bishop, G. Herrmann, Jacobs, Lockridgc, J. Miller. Row 2. Pascoe, B.

The purpose of this Conference was to lead the youth of Indiana and those who came from surrounding states into a real and practical knowledge of the Christian life. The attendance of the conference was nearly double that of last year. There were over one thousand registered, with seven different states represented. The theme of the conference centered around the chorus, The Strength of Our Youth for Christ, and Galatians 2:20. TZET € G € m GOSPEL TEAMS ' I ' he Taylor University Gospel Team organization has been able during - - the past year to take its services to churches within a close radius. This has been one of the most fruitful years in the annals of Gospel Team work. Prompted by a love for their Saviour, many teams of singers, preachers, and personal workers have answered the call of pastors to come for par- ticipation in their meetings. During the Christmas holidays Gospel team groups held revivals in nine different centers. Through the influence of these meetings, over one hundred souls were converted. Throughout the year, groups have answered the call for week-end engagements, for a day or for a single service. The success of these endeavors has shown itself in requests for the return of the teams. The personnel of the organization is not limited to a definite number, but consists of those who are interested in this type of work and are able to serve in the capacity of Gospel team workers.

PRAYER BAND ' I HROUGH the years it has been the traditional purpose of the Prayer ■ ■ Band to receive local and world-wide petitions of spiritual need and to present those petitions as a group before the Throne of Grace. The Band has no definite membership role, but its Tuesday evening meetings are well attended in realization of the power of intercessory prayer. The scope of the group ranges from local requests to those that come from the far places of the earth. The evangelical results received through the prayers of this group will never be materially measured. Not only does the Prayer Band make these requests known unto God but it pro- vides for periods of deepening fellowship and communion. The evidence that Prayer changes things not only on the campus but out to the uttermost parts of the earth, the deepening and refreshing presence of the Holy Spirit, and the resultant vision of the world ' s need, has moulded the Prayer Band into a forceful, spiritual organization. 3 5 Row 1 Row 2 Row 3 PERSONNEL : Allee, Branch, Chappell, Cookingham, Dennis, Dillon, Hart.

MEN ' S MINISTERIAL ASSOCIATION THE men of Taylor who plan to become ministers are organized to form the Men ' s Ministerial Association, which has been both an ed- ucational and inspirational guide to ministerial students since 1912. It affords wonderful opportunities for gaining a better understanding of ministerial problems through the instruction of experienced ministers and offers opportunities for actual preaching, constructively criticized by competent censors. The organization makes its contribution to the religious life of the school. Through gospel teams and individual workers, the members have gone to serve in the surrounding churches through exhortation of the Word, song, testimony, and personal work with young people. It is usually the custom for the society to sponsor communion services for the student body and community. Capable ministers and laymen of the school conduct the services, attempting to make them beautiful, inspirational, and exceedingly helpful to everyone. Dr. James Charbonnier, acting head of the Bible Department and head of the Greek Department, is contributing his talent to inspire and guide the members in an effective program. The success of this program is largely due to his cooperation and direction. T TT £ G € m HOLINESS LEAGUE TJ ' rom a very modest beginning, Holiness League has grown until it ■ • now fills a vital need in the lives of Taylor students. When the week draws to a close we cast aside the thought of studies and classes and gather in the Friday evening Holiness League meetings. These weekly meetings bring forth ringing testimonials from those who have found new blessings and greater experiences in Christian living. Holiness League is actively connected with the Young People ' s Gospel League, the main purpose of which is the jjresentation of the Gospel to the youth of the world. The true worth of Holiness League may be gleaned from the words of many Taylor graduates who return and testify to the abiding influence that it has had in their lives.

On Friday morning, October 5, the rising sun revealed the college campus attractively adorned with Blue and White. Philo Day was climaxed by the fine production of the Russian play, What Men Live By, under the direction of Mr. Lauren York. Rush Day found the interest of old and new students very keen. When the polls were closed in the evening, the result was 47-3 8. This was the third victory in four years for the Philos. Since Rush Day, the number of new members has increased, and both societies were quite equal at the close of the year. The old members felt justly proud of their new talent when they wrote and presented a unique program called Memmonuggets. The coming of Hallowe ' en brought the traditional hay-ride which proved to be a very enjoyable event, despite the fact that Winter seemed well on the way. Cheery bonfires, snappy games, and good refreshments made the hay-ride a success. The programs during the year are well worth mentioning. Why the Chimes Rang, a beautiful Christmas play with a vital lesson, was given on December 14. Another play, Mirage, was presented on February 22. This was a musical satire on George Washington ' s life. The joint society programs were climaxed in the recital of Charles Hansen, the blind organist of Indianapolis. The Philo meetings were alive and inspirational. They consisted of an operetta, sev- eral skits, poetry writing, reading, and short story contests. Much credit is due to the president, Mr. Robert Jacobs, his cabinet, and the censor board for this successful and happy year.

In the initial program at the close of Rush Days, the club took its first step toward the attaining of a new goal in literary achievement by the out- standing dramatic production of The Rock. The new student talent was evidenced by the pantomime program Parajarat, under the direction of Florence Taylor and Carl Reppert. The weird atmosphere and ghostly pranks added to the success of the traditional Hallowe ' en masquerade. As is the precedent, the religious drama, The Holy Grail, was given at Christmas time before the Taylor audience. Later the pageant was pre- sented before the Gaston M. E. Church congregation. An interesting and educational program was given in commemoration of John Wesley. In co-operation with the Philalethean Literary Society one of the most outstanding public programs of the year was made possible by the recital given by the blind organ- ist, Mr. Charles F. Hansen of Indianapolis. Lincoln ' s birth anniversary was celebrated by Rev. Ransopher ' s display and lecture on his very remarkable collection of Lincoln relics. The outstanding dramatic production of the spring term was the sacred drama, St. Claudia. Unique club programs throughout the year provided opportunity for social and literary development. A friendly rivalry, characteristic of Rush Day activities, linked with a co-operative spirit, added impetus for greater achievement. PERSONNEL COL.

Dr. Oborn, head of the History Department, has acted as sponsor throughout the year and has greatly aided the club by his supervision and interest. The club has of- fered its members an opportunity of acquaintance with current prob- lems of the day by group discussions, instructive talks, and guided study. At various times there have been opportunities given for individual pre- sentation of world problems. The club has continued its membership in the International Relations Club, an organization under the auspices of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace and by this affiliation several important books on world-wide affairs have been secured. The activities of the past year have been directed by Crystal Lockridge, President, and an able board of censors who have supplied programs rich and varied in content. £ 3 5 aw PERSONNEL Row 1: Aldridge, Ayres, Baker, Beckrink ' C.

T H € G € m PESTALOZZIAN SOCIETY ' I f HE Society of Pestalozzi is a local organization composed of only those students who ■ ■ are prospective teachers. For some time the students have felt the need of having a few meetings when all of those who have declared their intentions to teach, might come together in a way that differs from that of the classroom. Freshmen and Sopho- mores seldom meet with Juniors or Seniors in classes of Education. This means that two years of their college life is spent before very much, if any, attention is given to the spirit of teaching. One of the purposes of this organization is to get all of these student teachers to- gether once a month to help them to sense what it means to be an American teacher. Emphasis is placed upon the professional spirit. At each meeting some Senior or Junior talks on the life and work of some master teacher. Occasionally some county or city superintendent or some high school principal will talk along the line of what traits they like to find in the teachers whom they employ. Such talks are always helpful because the students get first-hand statements of what present-day schoolmen want in their teachers. Again it is our purpose to pay some attention to the social side of a teacher ' s life. They must not only be intelligent and moral but also professional. They should be prepared to be leaders in the social affairs of their communities. It is the intention to take at least one meeting during the year to discuss the social life and just what part the teacher should have in the community life. PERSONNEL COL.

MNANKA DEBATING CLUB TJ ' ounded in 1921 for the purpose of featuring active participation in ■ - public speaking, developing poise, confidence, and broadness of mind, the Mnanka Debating Club has proved itself a valuable factor in secur- ing a liberal education. This year was started with a formal tea given for the new members at the home of Mrs. Cornwell. Later in the year a party was given in celebration of George Washington ' s birthday at the home of Mrs. Jones. The Mnankas believe in a well balanced program as is shown by the various social affairs distinct from debates and parliamentary procedure engaged in throughout the year. The formal banquet, held at Hartford City in the spring, will long be remembered by every Mnanka as a Carnival. The club aims by means of interesting debates, impromptu speeches, and parliamentary drill to train every member to speak with ease. All members feel that their organization is an essential part of the school and that it is a definite contributive factor to the upbuilding of their mental and social lives. 9 5 Row 1 Row 2 Row 3 C.

SOANGETAHA DEBATING CLUB ' I ' he Strong Hearted Maidens started off the year with pep and vigor, for to ■ ■ the fifteen old members who returned to school were added eleven new ones. Pro- fessor Oborn was elected club sponsor, and the Soangetahas found him an enthusiastic and ready helper. The meetings throughout the year were varied and interesting. On the morning of September 29, old and new Maidens and their guests followed the Indian trail to the big Pow-Wow. Another bright event was a St. Patrick ' s Day party held instead of the usual Valentine party. All who attended reported a heap o ' fun at the expense of St. Patrick. The inter-club debate between the Mnankas and the Soangetahas was an exciting occasion. The Misses Herrmann, White, and Severn held the affirmative for the Soan- getahas. The question was: Resolved, that the manufacture of munitions should be nationalized. The climax of social activities was the spring banquet which afforded much pleasure and which left a lasting glow upon the debate year 1934-1935. T HFT EZZHT C Row 1 : Aldridge, Bastian, J.

MEN ' S DEBATING CLUB Qince the Eulogonian and Eurekan Debating Clubs were organized, ' - ' their ideals of helpfulness to their members have been maintained. Last year the clubs found it advisable to unite temporarilv, which resulted in new interest and enthusiasm. This group is primarily organized to promote interest in debating on the part of all men in the college. The aims of the Men ' s Debating Club are to develop public speaking and debating abilities, as well as to give training in correct parliamen- tary procedure. To carry out such aims necessitates varied programs, including prepared debates, impromptu speeches, parliamentary drill, and talks bv outside debating authorities. 9 Row 1: Aldridge, J. Brothers, Bycr, C. Miller. Row 2: Patton, Scea. INTERCOLLEGIATE DEBATERS ' I ' he debate schedule this year was not very extensive and only a few ■ ■ students tried out. Most of the boys were inexperienced, and, though they did not win many decisions, they made a creditable showing, and the debaters received valuable training for another year. Since only one member was lost by graduation and many new members will probably join, the team hopes to be stronger next year. The debaters first journeyed to Manchester College, where a two davs ' tournament was held. More than ninety teams were present, each team debating five times. In this tournament and in the state league the boys debated with Manchester, Anderson, Goshen, Earlham, DePauw, Loyola, Wabash, Purdue, Normal, Wayne, Northwestern, Butler, and Evansville, sixteen debates in all. The state league question was: Re- solved, that all collective bargaining be negotiated through non-company unions, safe-guarded by law. T H € G € m a m . ,:Mm T 9 3 5 TTi-re a cr m SCHOOL OF MUSIC Throughout many states Taylor University is known for her ef- ficient School of Music and for the high standard of courses given. The Director is Professor Theodora Bothwell, teacher in piano and organ. Associated with her are the following instructors: R. F. Kreiner, Voice and Public School Music; George Fenstermacher, Violin; Sadie Louise Miller, children ' s work in piano. The students in the School of Music are provided with a modern Music Hall having up-to-date equipment, among which are twelve pleasant practice rooms, a pedal piano, a two-manual Estey organ, and a beautiful three manual Tellers- Kent organ. Unusual interest is manifested in the various features of the School of Music, among which the most important this past year have been the Choral Society directed by Professor Kreiner, and the University Orchestra directed by Professor Fenstermacher. Especially outstand- ing among local programs have been an artist recital given by Profes- sors Bothwell and Kreiner of the Music School, with Professor Dennis of the Speech Department, the presentation of The Messiah by the Choral Society, and a concert by the Orchestra. The public recitals are of much interest, and the weekly practice recitals have been of in- estimable value to music students. 1 Lauren York Robert Denni ' Perry Haines Robert Titus QUARTET ' I ' he Varsity Quartet resumed its work last September in a somewhat ■ - unorganized manner because of the loss of the baritone, Mr. Long. Mr. Betzold temporarily accepted this position until late in the fall Perry Haines was chosen to permanently fill the place. The first real undertaking was the engagement with Dr. Stuart at the Woodside M. E. Church in Buffalo, which included several radio broadcasts. Among the major engagements for the year were the meetings in Corry, Penn- sylvania; in Crestline, Ohio; in pre-Easter services at Cincinnati; and in the participation in the Sammy Morris Broadcast from WOWO in Fort Wayne. Two veterans, Bob Dennis, first tenor, and Bob Titus, second tenor, who have faithfully served in the Quartet for five years and four years respectively will be greatly missed. But we trust that those who will replace them will uphold the same inspirational spirit that these former men have so humbly maintained. T H € Gem CHORAL SOCIETY THE Taylor Choral Society is composed of the members of the combined glee clubs, vocal students and others who enjoy singing. The so- ciety sang two great master choruses: Bless the Lord, O My Soul by Kreiner with Professor Bothwell as accompanist. With such a large membership and a determination to do greater work we were able this year to present the major portion of Handel ' s Messiah before the holidays. During the Youths ' Conference the so- citv sang two great master choruses: Bless the Lord, O My Soul by Ippolitoff Ivanoff and Jesus, Fount of Mercy from Stabat Mater by Dvorak. As a traditional custom the society presented the lovely can- tata Olivet To Calvary by Maunder on Good Friday afternoon. The singing of the oratorio, The Holy City, by Gaul during Commence- ment week culminated the year ' s work.

Its member- ship is made up of the students in the Music School and others of the college and community who desire experience in ensemble playing and acquaintance with orchestral compositions. Early in the fall, the orchestra gave its first concert of the year, in the form of a public program. Later in the year, the orchestra made its appearance in a chapel program. The dinner music for the Taylor banquet at the North Indiana Meth- odist Episcopal Conference at Fort Wayne in May was furnished by members of the school orchestra. Of outstanding importance in the year ' s program was the place taken by the orchestra in playing for the Youths ' Conference and for the com- mencement activities. The violin quartet, which is of course a part of the orchestra, has rendered valuable service in playing for banquets and other special school occasions. The services of the quartet have not been limited to school activities but have taken it into surrounding community centers as well. ATBH1ILE7DCS 5 3 _j TAYLOR ATHLETICS thletics bring to the surface the best and often the worst character - ■ ■ qualities that a person possesses. Unfairness, if in the heart, will always display itself during a close basketball game. Selfishness, another predominant trait, is bound to make its appearance on the tennis court. Temper, if lodged in the nature of a young man, will always come to the surface during a trying baseball game. Such characteristics are pos- itive signs of present and future failure. Under Christian supervision such traits are suppressed, and in their stead, good sportsmanship and fair play are practiced. As a result the youth that leave this beloved institution play the game of life with real decision and godly manner.

The Anderson Tigers ' defense could not stop the brilliant shooting of Miller and C. Stuart in the last half, while Duckwall showed special ability on the defensive. A second victory was won by the Trojans as they swamped the Hunt- ington Foresters on the local court by a score of 44 to 14. The Purple and Gold took an early lead with 1 3 points before the Foresters could score. Miller played an outstanding all-around game, garnering a total of 21 points. In their first appearance against Indiana Central College on their floor, the Purple and Gold scouts accepted the short end of the 43 to 2 score. Dejernett, the Greyhounds ' giant colored center was too great an obstacle for P. Stuart who made noble attempts to stop his fatal shots. Taylor Trojans met Ball State on their court in a thrilling tilt but were overcome by the strong Cardinals bv a score of 37 to 20. This was Taylor ' s fourth tilt of the season and one of the toughest encounters for the Purple and Gold. At the half the Trojans were trailing by only one point, the score being 12 to 11, but they were unable to block the accurate shots of the Ball State Cards in the last half. T TT € Gem STUART STtuaisow Continuing a series of daring feats, the Trojans staged a brave attack against the Wabash College quintet on the Crawfords- ville floor, but fell victims to a 31 to 11 score. The local five was handicapped in size, the Wabash center effectively using his height around the basket. The Purple and Gold began to flash again as the Trojans trounced Concordia on the local court to the tune of 31 to 26. Stephenson and Haley accounted for six pointers before the Concordians could tally. Another victory was added when the Trojans turned back the attack of Kokomo Junior College, 2 to 10. As indicated bv the score, the Christmas season must have had a bad effect upon the shooting. Chuck showed special aptitude as captain in man- euvering his team out of close scrapes. The Trojans experienced a surprising up- set when Anderson avenged a defeat of the early part of the season by a score of 42 to 37. Anderson took the lead in the first half which ended 32 to 12. The Trojans reduced the margin in the second half, but were unable to stop the accurate shooting of the Bvrd brothers. Taylor fell victim to the Manchester quintet by a 33 to 22 fate. The Purple took a slight lead in the second half but were unable to retain their positions to the final whistle. Turning defeat into victory, the Trojans edged out Huntington by two points after a fine come-back, 40 to 3 8. Longnecker did unusual shooting to supply some de- ficient points. Miller again was at the front with 15 points. HALEY J 9 3 5 Entering the game with the firm deter- mination to avenge an early-season loss, Kokomo accomplished its purpose to the tune of 44 to 42. Constantly harassed by the vigilance of the opponents, C. Stuart proved his ability as captain by acquiring 15 points. The Greyhounds of Indiana Central vis- ited Taylor to be surprised by stiff compe- tition. The Greyhound reserves were un- able to retain the lead in the last half, but summoned the help of Big Dave Dejernctt and the rest of the first line men. This game was perhaps the most thrilling of the season, characterized by close guarding and accurate shooting, the final score being 34 to 31. In the last home game of the season, the Trojans gave way to the fast Manchester giants by a 25 to 24 score. Although Man- chester excelled in height and weight the Trojans demonstrated superior speed. Weaver, veteran guard played his last home game for the Trojans with his usual hard fighting and effective guarding. The Trojans closed the basketball season with a second win over Concordia by a 3 5 to 26 count. This was the last game with the Trojans for both Captain Stuart and Weaver. The team will recognize the loss of these two valuable men in future con- tests. However, Coach Cornwell is confi- dent of good material for next year. Of the season ' s fourteen games, Taylor won six and lost eight for a percentage of .429. The team was much handicapped by the injuries of several men — better luck next year!! LONGNECKER. MGR. P. STUART DOCK WALL T fl € Gem ! l BASEBALL VyTiTH an average team Coach Cornwel! opened the season with N.A.G.U. of Indianapolis showing un- usual interest and activity. Several promising Freshmen bid well to fill the vacancies left by graduates. In the initial game with N.A.G.U. Tavlor lost, 2-1. The game was a pitcher ' s duel from the start with Miller holding the upper hand until the fourth inning. The cap- itol city team won the contest after the locals had been held scoreless until the last half of the ninth, when they pushed over their lone tally. The club is steadily improving this spring in antici- pation of a fine schedule including such clubs as Man- chester, Concordia, and Huntington. v « TENNIS ' I ' he Taylor tennis squad opened their season of competition last - ■ spring in the second week of May with the Huntington Foresters on the local court. In this initial game they bowed in the hard fight to the tune of two out of five matches. In a return game at Huntington the Taylor netters again fell before the rackets of the Foresters with one out of four matches. Smarting under the stings of the Foresters, the Trojans overcame the Anderson College netmen on their court with a win of four out of five matches in their last competition of the season. A new squad of prospective looking racketeers appeared for training, the team being composed of Ralph Long, Paul Yinghng, Kennie Linn, and Cliff Hoffman. Although Art Howard, star tennis player, did not train for competition, he did splendid work in assisting as coach, and he also accompanied the men on their away-from-home contests. With these experienced men and with added training we anticipate some thrilling performances this spring. TFT € G € m ' Iff 11 TRACK ' I ' aylor track and field men did some very effective performing this spring in the ■ ■ several meets in which they participated. Coach CornwelPs men produced re- sults, evidence of hard and diligent training. C. Stuart, Persons, Jerome, and P. Stuart laid down points in the cinder feats, while Herrmann represented Taylor in field events. Taylor was fortunate in being represented last spring at the Little State Meet at Earlham by a relay quartet composed of C. Stuart, Persons, Jerome and Kidder with C. Stuart also scaling the hurdles. He captured a first place in the low hurdles and a third in the high hurdles. He also participated in the Big State Meet at Purdue and took the laurel for third place in the low hurdles. In an invitational meet this spring at the Ball State athletic field Taylor copped a second place out of the six colleges represented there. Ball State reaped first place with 72 points, Taylor scored second with 31 points. The other teams participating there were Indiana Central with 16, N.A.G.U. with 9, and Kokomo and Anderson Colleges with 3 each. Chuck Stuart was individual star of the meet, winning four firsts. These events were the high and low hurdles and the 100 and 220-yard dashes. Coach Cornwell has several meets scheduled for this spring and with a good squad of veteran men and several new men we anticipate some thrilling performances. The remainder of the scheduled meets for this spring are a meet at Earlham, May 11, an invitational meet at Taylor, May 18, the Little State Meet at DePauw, May 25, and the Big State Meet at Purdue, June 1. THE T CLUB ' I ' hi: T Club is the functioning athletic association on Taylor ' s cam- ■ ■ pus, being composed of all men who have received a Varsity T as an award for meritorious athletic competition. Its activities are those of assisting in the functions of the athletic program. Under the present statute, the qualifications for membership is to receive a Varsitv T , and the requirement for this is to have participated in half or more of the intercoll egiate games in one particular sport. An individual may receive only one letter a year, regardless of the number of sports in which he has creditably participated. The aims of this club are to sponsor the highest type of athletic com- petition and to present the noblest type of Christian character and sports- manship in every phase of its endeavors. During the past year we have been thrilled by the fine spirit ex- hibited by the athletes and that engendered within the student body. We hope that in future years the aims of the T Club will be realized more fully. H 9 3 IDC - . T H € G € m MEN ' S CLASS WINNERS 1 LASS basketball this year gave rise to increased interest, not only - ' among players, but also within the student body. The center of interest was the combat between the Seniors, the winners of the past three years, and the present Freshmen squad who defeated the Seniors in two out of three battles. After losing their first game to the Seniors in the first round the Freshmen burst forth with new recruits to upset their opponents. The four teams were quite evenly matched, as the results of the games prove. The Juniors and Sophomores offered strong competition, each team upsetting the Seniors once and finally sharing third position. Cook- ingham, the Junior ranger, plowed forth to lead his team and to lead the tourney with an individual score of 48 points. The Sophomores demon- strated consistent playing throughout the tourney but were unable to tally the few needed points in the various close encounters. The Fresh- men were somewhat erratic at times, but were able to come through when points were needed. Powell and Hinshaw led the Freshmen in individual scoring. Class basketball seemed to ring an appreciative note since society com- petition was abolished. A greater number of men now have the privi- lege of participating in the sport. 5 J i WOMEN ' S CLASS WINNERS ' I ' he girls ' series of the hardwood encounters proved to be one of the - - most interesting features of the intramural basketball season. These sextette encounters held an unusual interest as the teams were most even- ly matched in flashing attacks and skillful playing. The field of team contest for the series was limited to three classes as the Senior girls were unable to organize with their limited number of players. The third year women proved their authority for the control of the class cup only after a hard fought championship contest with the Fresh- men sextette. This decisive game was perhaps the most interesting and exemplified more skillful playing than any other encounter of the series. The Juniors were able to make their claim for the title by retaining their lead, which at the half time was 16 to 7. The Sophomores displayed a fine brand of ball throughout their con- tests, but their deficiency at the net proved their undoing for a victory record. Taylor led the Juniors in individual scoring and likewise was high point player of the tourney. T err :ig cm CLASS TRACK 100- YARD DASH — C. Stuart 1st (Senior) Steele 2nd (Soph) P.
