Harp er, who served as President of Evansville College for nine years. Those nine years perhaps included the greatest financial difficulties that the college ever faced, and it was only through the almost super-human efforts of our Presi¬ dent that the college managed to survive. He has given freely of his time and energy in order to insure the grow¬ ing greatness of our school, and we wish to take this means of extending to him our appreciation and gratitude for what he has done. Through this LinC, which is the last one published during his term of office, may we voice our sin¬ cere thanks and best wishes for him in his new work. DR. EARL E. HARPER, S.T.B., D.D.

Acting President of the College Shortly after the opening of the second semester, Dean Charles E. Torbet became Acting President of the College, following the resignation of President Earl E. Harper. President Torbet will hold this office until a new president is selected by the Board of Trustees to fill the vacancy left by Dr. Har¬ per’s resignation. President Torbet has been associated with Evansville College for over thirty years, and is well fitted to carry the responsibilities that his position demands. He recently received an honorary degree of Doctor of Education from Simpson College, where Dr. Harper is now serving as Presi¬ dent. STUDENT-FACULTY FEDERATION The Student-Faculty Federation has had another active and suc¬ cessful year in the furthering of the fine spirit of cooperation be¬ tween the faculty and students of Evansville College, and in the general betterment of college life. The Student Government functions through the Administrative Board and eight committees, namely: Fine Arts, Athletics, Pro¬ motions and Public Occasions, Public Speech, Religious Life, Welfare, Publications, and Social Life. Each committee is com¬ posed of three faculty members, one of whom serves as chairman, and three student members, one of whom serves as vice-chair¬ man. Owing to the adequacy and efficiency of the present Student Association constitution, no new legislation was enacted during this past year. Among the many activities of this organization is included its successful work in cooperation with the Junior Cham¬ ber of Commerce during the football season ticket campaign. It also pledged a student subscription to the Community Chest Fund in the 1936 drive. In addition, the Association provides, through the workings of the various committees, the presentations at the three assemblies held each week. The committees have func¬ tioned unusually well this year in creating harmony and coopera¬ tion among themselves and in all phases of college life. The Administrative Board composed of the three deans of the college, the three officers of the Student Associa¬ tion, and the President of the college, acts as a link between the faculty and the student body. It receives reports from all of the eight committees un¬ der its jurisdiction, and has charge of all general administrative and dis¬ ciplinary matters affecting campus life. Any action of this board is sub¬ ject to the referendum by students and faculty. ADMINISTRATIVE BOARD EARL E. HARPER President CHARLES E. TORBET Acting President WAHNITA DeLONG Dean HOWARD F.

THE SENIOR CLASS OF 1936 Four eventful years Have passed since the present Senior Class entered Evansville College, years which have seen many changes in us and in our college. But we are able now to look back with pride upon the accomplishments of that period which has come to a close. In our freshman year the Student-Faculty-Federation was adopted. We have seen the organizing and growth of the new women’s society, the Pi Kappa Mu, the erection of the Men’s Lounge, the inauguration of the new department of music, various changes in the faculty, and innumerable other events which have meant growth for the college. To the faculty and administrative officers we extend our sincere appreciation, and to the student body we express best wishes for continued success in the future. —THE CLASS OF 1936.

A great deal of time and energy goes into the making up of any book such as this, but we hope that the effort has been worth¬ while. Financial conditions have made publication difficult this year, but we have tried to put out the highest type of book possi¬ ble and we hope we have succeeded. Close cooperation between the business and editorial staffs has been necessary, and is largely responsible for the publication of the book. Our thanks are due students, patrons and advertisers for their loyal support, and our best wishes go to the staff of the 1937 LinC.

Thomas Nickels, 1934-35 editor, and Paul J. Scheips, special columnist of the same time, both contributed articles from their new places of work. Nickels is doing graduate work at Columbia University and Scheips is teaching in Puerto Rico. Various members of the present staff conducted columns in¬ cluding sport, style, creative writing, and current event material. The business department under Manager Oscar Bohn ably ex¬ ecuted the commercial phase of the work. Special editions of the paper were put out in September, prior to Christmas holidays, and for the Community Fund drive in January. Extraordinary cooperation characterized the year’s work, ac¬ cording to editor Oberst. BEATRICE ARNEY CARL BOSECKER MAURINE OVERFIELD JAMES KIRTLEY THE CRESCENT STAFF Assistant Editor ..

W. cabinet this year, headed by Miriam Patrick, chose as its goal the answering of its motto, “Why Y?”. Programs and special meetings were carried out through various chair¬ men and the Y. W. members were arranged on committees under the chair¬ men to aid them in their specific duties, and to give the member a feeling of responsibility in the club work. A welcome for freshman girls, a tea for all Little Sisters and new girls in the school, and the annual Big and Little Sister party made up the first activities of the new year. Following this, the cabinet members attended a conference held on the DePauw campus in October as training for their duties. The Y. M. C. A. joined with the Y.

The club presented its first program on Friday, March 20, and has charge of all subsequent programs. It has been the policy of the club to bring to the audience of the air a variety of en¬ tertainment in an attempt to offer something of interest to every listener. The various programs have included such features as instrumental and vocal soloists and groups, campus news comments, dramatic sketches, monologues, interviews, comic skits and playlets, and each week the favorite songs on the campus. Most of the skits presented were written by students, who also took the various roles in the plays. In tryouts held over a microphone in the auditorium of the college, Wallace Capel was chosen announcer, with Louis Ritz and Carl Bosecker as alternates. Professor Gaylord Browne is faculty sponsor of the club. THE CHOIR During the first semester of this year Dr. Imri Blackburn continued direct¬ ing the work of the college choir which he has conducted for several years. Under his supervision the choir sang programs in connection with the dedi¬ cation of the Santa Claus monument at Santa Claus, Indiana, and the Com¬ munity Fund drive in January. Programs were sung at the college and at the Temple of Fine Arts, and one week-end trip to New Albany and sur¬ rounding territory was taken last fall. Mr. George Graham of Chicago took over the direction of the choir when he came to fill the vacancy in the music department in February. The per¬ sonnel and program of the choir remained much the same with the excep¬ tion of a move to add faculty members to the choir to make it an all-campus body.

This year it became a corporation with a board of directors including a number of citi¬ zens of Evansville as well as the conductor and the officers of the orchestra body. Membership is open to students and adults of adequate musicianship who are interested in ensemble playing and the study of orchestral literature of all ages. The orchestra offers playing experience to music students and inspira¬ tional recreation to citizens whose daily occupations lie in other fields of endeavor. At the same time the concerts presented during each season are a source of pleasure to outsiders whose music interests are of a passive rather than of an active nature.

Colby was acting captain in a major¬ ity of the games this season, and proved to be an inspiring and capable leader on the gridiron. Captain Pollard graduates this year, leaving behind him three years of varsity foot¬ ball, during which time he was given honorable mention as end on many All-State teams. COACH Since his coming to Evansville College in 1929, Coach Slyker has greatly improved the calibre of athletic teams representing the college on the gridiron and hardwood. While not being blessed with an over-abundance of promising material, Coach Slyker has developed well- balanced and smooth functioning teams, which, with attractive schedules, have placed the Pur¬ ple Aces high in the ranks of the Indiana In¬ tercollegiate Conference. In recognition of his fine record at Evansville College, Coach Slyker was re-elected president of the Indiana Inter¬ collegiate Coaches’ Association this year for the second consecutive term. BASKETBALL CAPTAIN Otto Thuerbach was elected captain of the 1935-36 basketball quintet at the end of the season. Otto captained one of the best fives ever to be turned out at Evansville College through the toughest schedule ever to face a Purple hardwood team. He was well deserving of this honor, as his stellar play made him the main cog in the Ace attack. He is a senior, and graduates with three varsity letters in both basketball and football, as well as All-State mention as basketball guard this year. FOOTBALL SEASON The 1935 nine-game grid schedule of the Slykermen was the most attractive as well as the toughest ever to face a Purple grid machine. This season, however, turned out to be a rather up- and-down affair, with the Aces playing great football at times, and at other times being lost in the football wilderness. At any rate, the team was undoubtedly better than the scores seemed to indicate. The lack of reserve material proved a handicap toward a more successful season. The Acemen held the conference-winning Butler eleven to their slimmest margin of victory, 12-0, but bogged down in the Hanover game and were drubbed by a 25-12 score after being on the long end of the score throughout the greater part of the game. The highlight of the season was the Aces’ smashing vic¬ tory over the Valparaiso Uhlans, fighting their way from behind to wind up the season with a win, 19-14. The Purple placed two men on the All-State second team. Earl Heldt and Fay Johnson landed berths at guard and fullback posts respectively. Johnson also was given the Kiwanis Award. SCORES E. C.

The purple-clad netters gathered momentum slowly. After the first two preliminary losses against Ohio State and Indiana University, the Slykermen won six games to lead the Indiana Inter-collegiate Conference. However, as the conference race came into the last lap, the Acemen, handicapped by in¬ juries and illness, played in-and-out basketball. They won four games and dropped three in a row to wind up the season in seventh place in conference standings. Such in brief is the sea¬ sonal summary of the quintet. Against conference fives the Aces won eight games and lost five for a percentage of .615. Against non-conference quintets the Slykermen broke even at three all. This season marked the Aces’ first taste of Big Ten competition. E. C.

Fenneman’s football season ticket team, of which the Freeman twins were members, won the campaign last fall, selling more tickets than any other student team. CAMPUS LEADERS The men Campus Leaders this year have been active in closely related fields. Each is a mem¬ ber of the Phi Zeta society, and each has for some time worked on the Crescent Staff, with Paul Oberst serving as Editor this year. Karl Schuessler has made his influence felt most widely in administrative lines, being head of the Student-Faculty Federation in his Senior year. Louis Ritz has been prominent largely in debate and oratorical work, as well as being president of the Y. M. C. A. Oberst and Schues¬ sler are also members of the Y. M. C. A. cabi¬ net, and all three men are members of the Thespian Dramatic Society. Oberst has majored in English, Ritz in Economics, and Schuessler in History. The women Campus Leaders are, like the men, members of the same society. Gamma Epsilon Sigma. Hester Thorpe and Ruth Kilbert have majored in English, while Miriam Patrick chose Sociology as her field. All three have been very active in the Y. V. C. A., each hav¬ ing served on the cabinet during her four years here. Miss Thorpe was Editor of the 1935 LinC, and has been active in Women’s Council work, while Miss Patrick served this year as Secretary of the Student-Faculty Federation. All three women have been outstanding in scholarship as well as leadership.

A part of every day at college has re¬ mained with us in some way. Turn back the calendar and see if you can’t recall how— In September we returned to college full of determination to make sixteen hours of A (and how many did?). Three hun¬ dred and thirty-two ambitious young things filled the corridors, of whom one hundred and seventeen were freshmen. Organiza¬ tions and clubs got in full swing. The Y. W. C. A. gave a Little Sister party. Classes held meetings and elected officers. Slade was made president of the Seniors, Bennett of the Juniors, Jaquess of the Sophomores, and Heistand of the Freshmen. The choir, with twenty-five members, held its first rehearsal. The Y. M. C. A. had a Freshman stag. We were glad to have Mrs. Wyatt with us again. The football season opened successfully with a win over Rose Poly, 13-7. October—and the first meeting of the Double Alpha Club was held, wtih induction of new members, and Phi Beta Chi fol¬ lowed suit by initiating five new members. Evelyn Armstrong was elected president of the Thespians. The faculty reception was held at Harper’s. The Student Peace Council was formed. November opened with the Aces’ defeat of Franklin, 7-0, but the next week the tables turned and Wabash held E. C. 28-0. On Armistice Day the Peace Council called a student mass meet¬ ing, and one hundred and thirty-two students pledged to fight only within the U. S. Bishop William F. Anderson spent a week here, giving a series of interesting talks about the development of the Bible. November 23rd was Homecoming, and to celebrate the occasion the Aces scored a 19-14 win over Valparaiso. Then everyone attended the “open house” in the Men’s Lounge and “swung out” at the Alumni dance at the McCurdy that night. December came, bringing red noses and chapped thumbs to hitch-hikers (aren’t we all?). The first Thespian production, Is Life Worth Living?, was produced with great success. On the 9th the Aces inaugurated their 1935-36 hardwood campaign by defeating Oakland City 31-24 before a capacity crowd at the Coliseum. The annual football banquet was given by the Castal- ians and Pollard was elected honorary captain of the team. But Mary Ann McCarthy got all the publicity. And all during the first two weeks of December the LinC staff members sold fifty LinCs, for which hooray! The Aces trekked to Ohio State for their first Big Ten competition but were set back 38-21. The Sigs gave a pre-Christmas dance at the Colonial Club, and a gay time was had by all. Then we were off on our holidays, and off-hand I’d say a very gay time was had by all then, too, eh Slade? The hardwood team won three games and lost one, and everyone rang out the New Year in fine fashion. The big blow on returning to school was the news of Dr. Harper’s resignation. Due to this event the College was included in the Community Fund Campaign for the first time. Browne (with an “e”, please) and Roth gave the first of a series of recitals of sonatas for violin and piano. The Sigs elected Patrick their new president, and the Castalians re-elected Bowman. The Thetas had their annual Campus Notable Banquet, and on the 16th the Aces dropped Indiana State 38-28. The faculty removed the Bible requirement and the underclassmen grinned from ear to ear. And here we are at the beginning of a new semester with finals and term papers off our minds for a while. CALENDAR i The opening of February brought fourteen new students and another recital by Browne and Roth. Honor awards were given to football men in assembly Friday the 7th. Professor George Gra¬ ham, the new member of the faculty as instructor in voice and choral work, was introduced to the student body. Mellen was re-elected executive secretary of the Men’s Council (what, an¬ other office!) Then came rush week for the women’s societies which began with a “twilight rendezvous” party at the Empire Room given by the Thetas, followed by the Pi Kappa Mu party at the Y. W. C. A., the Sig dinner-dance in the Empire Room, and the Castalian tea-dance at the Country Club. The sixty-second annual intercollegiate Oratorical Contest was held at Earlham College, in which Louis Ritz and Dorothy Mae Koch took part. Dorothy Mae, speaking on American Manners won the contest for women. Congratulations, Cookie! A matinee dance was held in the Men’s Lounge February 19th. Indiana State defeated the Aces, for which phooey, and on the 21st the farewell assembly for Dr. Harper was given. After much labor the men’s societies pledged new members. A student radio club was formed to take over the college radio program. Wabash defeated E. C. in the last game of the season. Then came the March winds and you took your life in your hands when you walked across the campus. Browne and Roth presented a third recital. Groeninger was elected president of the “E” Club. The Avon Players presented Hamlet and Othello in the college auditorium to appreciative audiences. The Sigs gave their annual basketball banquet, and Thuerbach was elected bas¬ ketball captain. The Radio Club had its premiere hearing March 20, with Wallace Capel acting as student announcer (“And you should see my fan mail, girls.”). The most-discussed organiza¬ tion on the campus, a post of Veterans of Future Wars and a Women’s Auxiliary began and ended in March. They now call it “—And Sudden Death.” It at least proved that the Great American Public has no sense of humor. Browne and Roth gave their final recital, and the Thespians presented Snow-W hite and the Seven Dwarfs. April showers and the month of formals. Van Keuren enter¬ tained his Poets class at his home. The “E” Club gave a dance at the Vendome. And we must mention the fact that we enjoyed Squaring the Circle, another Thespian production. Schnakenburg was really in there pitching. Then there was the Phi Zeta Formal, the first of the year. May opened with the Sig Formal in the Rose Room, followed the next week by the Thetas. On the week-end of the 15th Prof. Morlock’s sociology classes went all the way up to the big city of Chicago. And we mean “all the way.” Six (count ’em) grey hairs were found in Morlock’s head after their return. The Cas¬ talian Formal was held on the 23rd. Spring witnessed the usual sights of strolling lovers, a May Festival, and Johnson going bucketty-bucketty around the tennis courts. Finally the month of June, that supreme delight of p oets (especially those in Creative Writing Class), came along. There were the usual Senior activities: the sweeping up of the dead bodies left over from the Student Association election; the Jun¬ ior-Senior party; Class Day; Commencement, and the parting of the ways. It was a grand year in a lot of ways, and we hate to see it go. But we’re hoping for others just as swell. CAMPUS BEAUTIES MARGARET ROSE KOCH The women pictured on these pages were chosen as the campus beauties by the staff of Olive Studio, where photographs for this year’s LinC were taken. The choice was based on all-round attractiveness, including both beauty and personality. The studio staff had opportunity to view all the girls without Inakeup, under the bright studio lights, and could thus make a detailed study of each one. These girls were the four chosen after careful elimination, and have all been rated equally by the judges. Therefore, this year we present, not the most beautiful girl, but the four most attractive girls on the college campus. RUTH SHRIVER COLLEGE CATALOG ECONOMICS Professor Dean Long 101-102 A course dealing with the height of corn in Iowa, the map of the town of Boston, the process of being ejected from a steamship, and the marital difficulties of the professor, who according to his story, lives mostly on canned food. Very educa¬ tional. SOCIAL PATHOLOGY Or, “They Learned About Life.” 110 Professor James Morlock If you wish to learn what mothers say to their daughters in “that sacred twilight hour,” this is your chance. You may also view the interiors of some of Evansville’s best residences, including Woodmere and the County Infirmary. Which just shows into what paths a college education will lead you. ENGLISH Professor E. C. VanKeuren 111-112 The professor plays Winchell to the private lives of numerous illustrious corpses, including Shakespere, Browning, Byron and Shelley. It’s very interesting, but if bow ties annoy you (and they do us), we’d advise you to omit this one. SPEECH Or, “The Rise and Fall of Your Diaphragm.” 101 Miss Pearle LeCompte For the first time you become acutely conscious of yourself—of your body and voice in particular. After weeks of throwing your voice out the window, you begin to pray that one day it won’t come back. You will also come in very close contact with phonetics, and heaven help you if you’re a glottal clicker. CONDUCTING Professor Gaylord Browne 165 The Gorgeous Gaylord herein gives displays of temperament that would do credit to a Toscanini. Rumor has it that he carries on a correspondence with Ginger Rogers, discussing their common musical interests. Be that as it may, he is known as a cruel taskmaster, although he insists, “I’m really very soft-hearted, and I can’t understand why people don’t like me.” Aw, I betcha tell that to all the girls. COLLEGE CATALOG Or, “For Women Only.” Miss Ida Stieler This twice-a-week battle builds you up to an awful let-down. You are inflicted on the long-suffering public at the May Festival, being unrecognizable in the various contorted forms that go to make up a Greek Frieze, or a Hail to the Queen, Salute to Spring, and Nuts to You. Professor Heber P. Walker Th is is a combined course in gymnastics and hog-calling, featuring the chair stand and the sacking of Rome, when the barbarians chased all the township trustees out of Waterloo in 1066. Prof. Walker, or “Eugene the Jeep” as he is more familiarly known, revives some pre-Prohibition “anecdotes,” which obviously should have been prohibited. Mrs. Irene W. Place Although this may be a blow, girls, we feel forced to inform you that knitting, as a sport, is definitely passe. But for up-to-the-minute discussions on, “When I Was Abroad,” as well as the latest reports on fashion and drama, this is the tops. Of course, if you’re male and handsome, you’ll get by, n’est-ce pas? President Charles E. Torbet You may learn how to figure your point average, but we doubt it. You may learn “How To Use Your Mind,” and “How To Find the Right Vocation,” but we doubt it. In fact we seriously doubt that the average college freshman has a mind, or that he knows what a vocation is. And it’s ten to one that he hasn’t any point average to figure. Professor A. B. Cope This very illuminating course teaches you what little white rats do when put down on an electric plate. It also demonstrates the horrors of heredity, and points out the pitfalls of environment, until you totter weakly away, imbued with the convic¬ tion that life is a mess, and so is Psychology.
