The staff has tried to publish a LinC that is “readable” throughout, cramming it full of photographs, cartoons, and lively write-ups which are more candid and less candied than usual. We have abandoned decorative borders and monotonous make-up. The book has no “theme” for the sake of having a “theme,” being unified only by its spirit. So if the spirit moves you, let’s go— ( 3 ) SNOW “Snowed under” is the phrase . . . study . . . classes . . . exams . . . term papers . . . extra cur¬ ricular activities . . . outside work . . . sleep (?) . . . all in 24 hours . . . and dates . . . and campus capers . . .

( 6 ) DEDICATION The arc light reveals Dr. Olaf Hovda, who has been revealing the light of physics and math to Evansville college students faithfully ever since the school was transferred here from Moores Hill in 1919. He conscientiously shoulders his classroom responsibilities, yet enjoys life immensely, both work and play. In summer he putts on the golf course and putters in his garden; in winter he skis to school (the entire block). Known more familiarly as “Spike,” he is a great instructor, advisor, and friend.

CHAPfu CuTS f}Auor : The Student-Faculty Federation, which is the bulwark of law and order on our campus, has added 1936-1937 to its years of successful cooperative government by students and faculty. The work of this organization is carried on through the Administra¬ tive Board and eight committees, namely: Fine Arts, Athletics, Promotions and Public Occasions, Public Speech, Religious Life, Welfare, Publications and Social Life. By a hair-raising election each spring the students name from their group three officers, the president, secretary and treasurer of the Student Association. These very fortunate people then have the extreme privilege of sitting in on meetings of the three Deans (and Prexy, at odd and sundry times) which are called sessions of the Administrative Board. The individual committees are composed of three faculty members and three student members, and just to be on the safe side, a faculty member is chairman of each committee.

S., Secondary Education, Science This is not a senior with a blank expression but is the space reserved for one Miss Lois Ashby. “But really,” says Lois most convincingly, “I’ve been around so long that people won’t want to see my picture. I’d rather not fill out a blank.” And so, dear Lois, since assignments are assignments, since the editor is such a slave-driver (hi, Capel), and since it’s a shame to have anyone grad¬ uate without this parting shot, you may regret them thar woids! And since people in glass houses (including the ones in front of theatres!) can’t throw stones, we ask you to recall Lincoln’s immortal words, “with malice toward none!” ( 24 ) Russell Basham A. B., Science, Chemistry Russ is one boy who really knows the meaning of work, take it from the chem. lab. But he seems to thrive on it, and plans to continue in his chosen field, with fine re¬ sults we have no doubt. He floated down the river from Rockport these four years ago, and has been going strong ever since (particularly in the line of the spring 1937 Sig. pres., not mentioning any names). It’s a great life, Russ, if your don’ts weaken! Pi Epsilon Phi, sec’y. ’35-’36, pres. ’37; S.F.F. Promo¬ tions and Public Occasions, vice-chairman ’36-’37; Junior treas. ’35-’36; Campus Leader ’37. Robert Becker B. S., Elementary Education, Social Studies If our gazing globe hasn’t fooled us, we predict a suc¬ cessful teaching career for Bob. There’s something about him, the fair hair or cultured nose, or maybe the firm jaw, that attracts women and children. Form in line, people, ten cents a peek. There isn’t one speck of scan¬ dal, not one iota of dirt to be gathered about Bob, so he must be one of those wise guys; and that isn’t a bad characteristic for a teacher, hut it really puts a crimp in our style, so to speak! Pi Epsilon Phi ’34-’37. Marvin Bennett A. B., Science, Chemistry Bennett is one of these men who doesn’t even wait for his degree before starting in to teach! He attributes his physical well-being to his daily four-flight pilgrimages to chem. lab., and all who are in the know in those parts have been accusing Marvin of beating around the Bush. No one (except Pauline) has been able to “pin” him down so far. If you didn’t catch that, read it again. (If in doubt, same recipe.)

Here they come a whole genera¬ tion strong, and he stands, a cool smile of assurance upon his face, his hand clenched! Will they trample over him, will they listen to his wise words, will he show the heart-shaped gingo leaf and the duodenum of the frog? Time will tell.

And that explains why Betty has been taking things easier this year, knitting a sweater here and there, taking 43 English courses at once, and just swinging out now and then.

It was great—he led his or¬ chestra member (one) with the skill and precision of Toscanini himself. So masterly was his technique that he almost managed to keep Basham and Bennett in step.

Mr. Fenneman has had a dandy time this last year lording over the new basement headquarters of his mighty newspaper, managing an editorial or two between deadlines. (He also managed a few dead lines between editorials.) Mr. Fenneman has a charming way of whaling the living daylights out of campus big-wigs in his editorials. (We saved clippings of all them to wipe the lather off our razor.) We wish we had space to tell you more, but these pages cost money. Below is the Crescent staff, the people who do all the work for no glory, let alone salary. These are the people who sit up nights (Tuesday, generally, before deadline Wednesday) wringing from their very souls enough copy to fill the five columns of the now larger paper which you and I, dear reader, peruse only too casually Friday mornings. They do their work from a true love of the press, not filthy (however, useful) lucre and tinseled fame. Of course sometimes the credit they get from the English department comes in darned handy, but this is simply incidental. We might say that these people have truly made our paper what it is today, which is a slick way of not committing one’s self. When we started out to write this (three cokes ago) we intended to include some criticism, both constructive and destructive, but since we have just about thirty words left, we will re¬ frain. (The original idea was to give the whole tribe a good razzing but Capel red-penciled it, being fond of writing with red pencils.) Back row: Todrank, C. Brown, R.

The busi¬ ness manager sells advertising space for the newspaper on a non-salaried, commission basis and must be able to satisfy all inquiries without giving out too much information as to how much of a cut he’s getting. Mr. Bo¬ secker is admirably endowed with this evasiveness, but he showed up recently with a doggy looking Ply¬ mouth (Unpaid Adv.). Of course we don’t see any connection, but maybe you will. Anyway he’d better leave enough in The Crescent funds to take care of the annual LinC deficit. Above: Schneider, B. Miller, Clewlow, Lane, Kellams. Below: Reichert, Kirtley, Fenneman. STAFF Editor .

(Enrollment includes the extra 40c the woman pays and pays.) This organization, for fifteen years, has been “promoting the social, intellectual, and moral interests of the women of the college.” The year begins with the usual party for all women for the purpose of getting acquainted with the new girls on the campus and ends with election of May Queen and the gala festival sponsored by the Council. After years of trial and tribulations in training these nymph-like creatures for May Day, the Council this year decided to be original and give the frosh and soph girls a break—no more gamboling about on the green.

Sec’yJ, JAMES KIRTLEY HARRY WESSLING, FAY JOHNSON (1st term), CARLETON KECK (2nd term) CLARENCE ROSE, FRANK MARYNELL DEAN JAMES MORLOCK This august and intelligent looking group of young men, whose function in the hugger-mugger of busy college life you are no doubt wondering about, has been dubbed the Men’s Council. This notable gathering governs male activities around college with faultless precision, without which the men of the college would be help¬ less derelicts in the raging storm of college confusion. The council meets in supposedly monthly meetings to heckle with Dean Mor- lock and each other over the pledging rules and to clarify the ambiguity pro¬ pounded by its cussed and discussed predecessors. It also, for amusement, formulates rules which no one ever hears about or worries abovit, then slinks into hibernation for the squirrel season to pray for rain. And it did. _ ‘This notable gathering governs with faultless precision.

Two representatives from each society, the president and one other elected by the society, make up the membership in this problem¬ solving group. The council copes with any and all problems con¬ fronting the societies during the rushing season, and serves as that “final court of appeals.” This year the “big happy family” entertained all relatives and acquaintances at a party in the men’s lounge. Freshman girls were the special guests of the members of all four societies.

The outstandin g social event is the club’s banquet. Speaking of eating, Thurman says he is very well fed by his flock. He says he feeds them spiritually while they feed him physically.

Discussions of personal problems comprised the theme of the second semester’s meetings. Students and faculty members lead these discussions. A rainy morning breakfast in the Tea Hut was the out¬ standing social event of the year. It was at this gathering whereat, during the doughnut dunking activities these words of wisdom were uttered: “Do not immerse below the second knuckle.” An occasional distraction occurred at “Y” meetings when the “Y” quartet rent the atmosphere.

Music has charm and we love charm but the idea of going without break¬ fast and coming to college at seven in the morning is asking too much of most of us. Even that very eligible bachelor “Butche” Browne (with a couple of e’s) couldn’t be so very amiable that early in the morning. A lot of bellyaching critics have condemned collegiate youth as be¬ ing without ideals and ability to withstand hardships. Heck! We give you the band. Sie spielten, und spielten, und spielten.

The most unusual production of the year was “Noah,” by Andre Obey. For sheer novelty it was hard to surpass seeing the antics of college students garbed as animals, and the way that Noah wiggled his be ' ard without losing it. Thespians have long prided themselves on their convincing performances, but even we were a bit overwhelmed, when a week after the spectacle of “Noah,” a flood descended upon the city. The Victorian comedy, “The Truth about Blayds,” by A. A. Milne was the last of the major productions, all of which were directed by the indefatigable Miss LeCompte.

Hilda Brackwinkle and Emory Full¬ ing upheld the affirmative, and Ivor Campbell and John McCarty the negative on the consumers’ benefit of cooperatives. A special non-decision debate was held with Valparaiso university over station WEOA, on the minimum wage, maximum hour question, with Ivor Campbell and Carl Bosecker speaking for Evansville. Herbert Roberts, who entered the state . oratorical contest at Wabash college for the third straight year, was highly commended for his oration, “The New Career.” Emory Fulling and Hilda Brackwinkle qualified for membership in Tau Kappa Alpha, national forensic fraternity, by completing their eighth college debate.

Besides turning out good football and bas¬ ketball teams, Bill is noted for the vile-smell- ing cigars which he smokes. Practicing the versatility he developed at Ohio State, Wm. V. spends his leisure moments perfecting his golf (ambition: to beat “Spike” Hovda), pooling at Jensen’s, getting himself arrested by the Nat’l Guard during the flood (for il¬ legal entry into a flooded area), and getting to classes on time.

F. (before flood), Coach William “Valentine” Slyker and 35 purple-clad warriors sallied upon the Evans¬ ville college greensward. Under the sizzling summer sun, through choking clouds of drought dust, the Purple grid aspirants toiled; sweat streaming down their grimy faces, they became a well-oiled grid machine. Some of this dust, however, collected in the working parts of the machine and later in the season the Slykermen were not so well oiled. While not an outstanding success on the gridiron this team of Purple pigskin toters turned in a most successful social season. September 26, Purple gridders embarked for Indianapolis under the protecting wing of “Fancy” Clancy, the popular bus driver (who knew all the beautiful girls at every stop). These same gridders left to tie a tin can to the tail of the Butler Bulldog. The gridirony of it was that, with six green E. C. men in the starting lineup, the Bulldogs took the string meant for the tin can and tied down the Aces, 40-0. Incidentally, the boys are reported to have taken Hotel Antlers by storm as well as to have taken various other things. October 3, the Acemen invaded Rose Poly’s football stronghold and pulled the mighty Rose Elephant’s trunk, 13-7. October 8, the Slykermen set sail with Captain Clancy for Barbourville, Kentucky, to feud with the Union college hillbillies.

Dean Torbet, and Waterboy Prof. Dean Long, chairman of the athletic committee, went into a huddle one day to determine the recipient of the first an¬ nual Gamma Epsilon Sigma basketball award. They called their signals: “Let’s see—50 per¬ cent character, 30 percent playing ability, 20 percent scholarship-mmmmmmmrnm yas—yas— yas-mmmmmmmmmm—the winnah!” Emerson Henke, the Phi Zeta basket sniper, got the pnvptpd (rnln mpnal for 1 Q3 7 BASKETBALL f Since the expected nucleus of five returning veterans to the Ace basketball squad shrank to a mere nucleus of three seasoned basket snipers, the Purple experienced the most disas¬ trous hardwood campaign in recent years. Basketball practice began at good ole E. C. in November with ten upper classmen and four¬ teen freshmen on the squad. With his usual punctuality good ole “Wild” Bill sometimes got to the gym too late to practice and sometimes the co-eds called away a few of the boys. Even¬ tually Coach got a couple of combinations to absorb his system. The good ole publicity dept, passed out a lot of reduced-price tickets and we had a ca¬ pacity crowd at our opening game. Well, we beat our bitterest rivals, the Oakland City Oaks, 41-27. This was quite a feat. The Oaks haven’t beaten the good ole Aces in their last 11 games. Good ole J ack Lomax was still wearing his neck brace which interfered with his necking con¬ siderably. The Aces and Kansas State Wildcats put on a scoring marathon, but the westerners had All-American Frank Groves and won, 60-46. Earlham came down undefeated, and Five Aces beat Five Quakers, 42-36, proving pacifism isn’t a good policy. GOING UNDER FOR A GOAI OR IS IT? Bailey—14 Henke—16 BASKETBALL Then came a Deluge of Defeats. We lost to DePauw 29-35, even though good ole Howard Seim tried to beat the Tigers by himself. Montana university and Centenary surprised even themselves by winning from the good ole Aces, 37-46 and 26-40. Good ole Willie Karr got 19 points (28-49), as the Yalpo Uhlans beat the Aces, on their first road trip. In their best game of the season the Slykermen lost to Western State, 32-45. Miklozek finally graduated from Indiana State, but they still won, 26-41, from the Aces at Terre Haute. In their next game the Aces made it almost unanimous by losing to good ole Wabash. Losing to Wabash this season was practically impossible but the boys made it by two points, 33-35. The river began leaving its banks and we were afraid DePaul might not show up. About 20 people who weren’t working for the Red Cross watched the Aces lose, 25-36, to make it eight in a row, the longest victory-less string since 1929. The flood washed out the final six games on the schedule which placed us eleventh in the good ole Indiana Conference instead of eighteenth. The freshmen Dunkin, Katterhenry, Susott, Oestreicher, and Prusz deserve our plaudits for practicing twice a week throughout the spring. When Servel and Chrysler teams played for the city championship it was mostly Aces. Sev¬ eral athletes quit school and “Wild” Bill began to sell trailers.

Pauline Bush, picture lower left, was caught as she returned from the ride two days later after giving up a desperate struggle to keep up with the others. (And only last year she was a Campus Notable for physical well-being.) Immediately below is a group of girls who attended “State Play Day” at Purdue. Ever since the trip Thomas and Jeffrey have been corresponding (not with each other). The W.A.A., under the leadership of Miss Ida Stie- ler, also sponsors swimming, hiking, all kinds of ball tournaments, skating, archery, and other forms of physical activity. Beginning next September the organization will put into effect a system of awards for outstanding ability and participation. B.

' WWW ‘The freshmen looked about the same.” v: . . . Aces barked all the way back ...” Thirty days hath September and we had to spoil half of them by coming back on the 16th. The fresh¬ men looked about the same, but everyone wanted to see the guy who came to take Harpo’s place. The Crescent gang was exiled to the Rathskellar, cough, cough. The Frosh were dined and Billy Emig was made their head. We found a new office force and several new profs. Eddie McKown was camping in the den of Uncle Howard. Clarke reorganized the home ec. dept. No one can even borrow a spoon now. Vanny came hack and began telling stories of Eng¬ land. Cope’s psychology test proved the frosh were dumber than ever. The seniors elected Kochie. Ole NY A and factories began payrolling. Prexy an¬ nounced his appointments to Federation committees and “Pat” announced hisn. Everyone wasn’t happy. The Big Sisters took the Little Sisters for a tramp. When they didn’t find the tramp, were they taken for a ride? Pele stormed in from Russia and corrupted the faculty with vodka. “Wild” Bill took his squad to the big city. The Butler publicity man said Butler would win, 40-0. The Evansville publicity man laughed and laughed. They did and the B.p.m. laughed. October leaves us cold. Rose Poly lost to the Aces. Smitty’s wife made her debut at the Administrative Board banquet and at the public reception. The Thes¬ pians got Blood but no thunder. Kirtley headed the juniors and “Clown” Brown the sophs. “Butch” Browne organized a band, everyone cheered. Mary Thrash’s cabinet went to Clifty Falls. The campus Democrats organized; Roosevelt polled a majority of 11 million; cause and effect, yea man. Johnson head¬ ed the “E” club. REO took his vacation, imagine do¬ ing it in October. It’s 350 miles to Union college and the Aces barked all the way back after their victory over the Li’l Abner boys. Frau Platz went to Califor¬ nia and Riegel took over. Artie Thurman reorganized the YM. Johnson tied DePauw one week and tied Indiana State the next week with his now famous drop kick. The boys and girls celebrated Homecom¬ ing anyway. Herbie Wey and Jack Lomax went to the hospital together. The seniors came out in cords, the dirty things. Wabash and October left us with a de¬ feat, plunk. Now in November nothing ever happens. Except we had a dance and a speech on Armistice, but no strike. Then “Otto the Snake” was elected Men’s Council head. There was a band-quit when Morlock left the Phi Zetas to become dean of men. Hanover college spoiled their own homecoming, and why did they hide the decorations? The faculty recepted, da-de-da. Russ Basham got a new pair of senior pants in the neatest graft seen in £ears. Final game: Valpo, 6, Aces, 0, Willie Karr again. The football men elected Johnson at the Castalian banquet. The YW passed out Y’s Thots—it should have been “What Thots?” The basketball squad began practice and we had tests and tests, and then we went home for Thanxgiving. Nothing happens in November. - ' S l 1 (110) ‘The faculty recepted, da-de- da.” December means Christmas. Johnson wasn’t there to get his second Kiwanis medal. The seniors cele¬ brated senior week and put on a horse opera. The News of the Aces came out a month late. The country gals organized the OTW; subtle name don’t you think? Johnson and Bailey got blankets at the Alum¬ ni banquet. The Crescent increased its size and Bo- secker got a headache. The Philos presented “Broad¬ way” Baker in an art chapel. McCutchan won Wah- nita’s poetry contest; the Fink-Capel combination re¬ taliated with an epic to counteract any pernicious in¬ fluence. Luhring the effervescent (so is Sal Hepatica) was in Eager Heart, ha. The faculty recepted the sen¬ iors. The OTW carolled; it was fun even if they couldn’t get many to listen. We had another dance and Bonham doesn’t like the Administrative Board and are they unhappy, my, my. Th e Aces won from Oakland City and Earlham and that’s all; they lost to Kansas State, Montana, DePauw, and Centenary. There ain’t no Santa Claus. January again and a New Year with all those reso¬ lutions. The Castalians went pre-war in mothers’ old keepsakes. The Campus Eat Shop closed and re¬ opened. Brackett’s locker petition finally got locked out. The basketball team extended their losing streak, being taken by Valpo, Western State, Wabash, and Indiana State. The Administrative Board presented Mrs. Emanuel and Judge Buente on marriage prob¬ lems and we found out a lot of things mother didn’t tell us. Karl Schaaf went to Wisconsin and Bennett became an instructor. We found out a dog couldn’t preregister and we got ready to close the semester with exams. The Thespians presented Bosecker as Old Man Noah in a beard and nightshirt. Kingsbury was a cow, ho, ho. After the deluge came the fl ood— the power of suggestion! We lost to DePaul in the middle of the flood and then forgot about basketball for the rest of the year. Most everybody went to work for the Red Cross rescuing people and cows and things. Slyker got stuck in the cooler by the militia. The college was a refugee station and Long had to be rescued. “Butch” was the hero of Bosse high. Every¬ one drank boiled water and laughed at the Chic Sale memorials. No exams, hurrah! Three weeks passed before we even thought about getting back to college. No exams, hurrah! (Ed. Note: Again?) Riegel got a doctorate. Herbie lost in the state oratorical contest and blamed it on our speech system. Tyler drove a carload of kids into a coal truck. Maudie tried to live down her refugee family. We all groaned as we tried to get 18 weeks ' work done in 16 weeks. Pledging time was rapidly approaching and friendship hit a new high. We dressed up for LinC pictures. Carl Hjortsvang took over Graham’s choir. The LinC had contests to get candid shots. Yanny ran out of stories about his bi¬ cycle and England and began to tell another kind, but he didn’t get kicked out of the Eat Shop for be¬ ing unlady-like as some other people did. CALENDAR “The seniors put on a horse opera.” . . . Rescuing cows and things.” (Ill) CALENDAR “The Sigs were 80 years old.” “Home Ec gals had a spaghetti supper.” During the Time of March the student body be¬ came extremely week-conscious. It was weak from Religious Emphasis, International Relations, and Holy. Doc Carr told us about the CIO strikes in Flint; Ellis Carson showed his pictures of his trip through Russia; Ameen Rihani explained there were more than sheiks in Araby; and the Double Alpha boys practiced on us. The Board of Trustees turned on a new financial policy and a new academic pro¬ gram. The Sigs were 80 years old and had a cake with candles. Frank Morgan got fan mail for his dirt column. The pledge lists were issued and the actives subjected the poor ignorant frosh to the usual initia¬ tion nonsense. The WAA (Boo-Hoo) went to Purdue to play. The freshmen held an election; some of the children were dissatisfied; they wrote letters about the Hon. Mellen. The Crescent gang had a party. St. Patrick’s Day came and with it the YWCA Chi¬ nese tea in those dizzy tea gowns. Hjortsvang let down the bars to the choir; now we can have operas, oh yeah. Henke won the first Sig basketball award. The impossible finally happened, the debators had a field day, winning in a triangular debate. With the April rains came the opening of the tennis courts and new grass seed on the lawns. Which means Spring had come. Tobacco Road came to town. We heard Taylor Holmes on the campus and then went to strengthen our vocabulary. The Smith Family be¬ gan a series of nights at home to the societies. The Truth About Blayds gave us Morgan in all his mag¬ nificence. The Home Ec gals had a spaghetti supper and their freshmen Ecs baked a real cake. The Phil¬ harmonic had its final concert. April 22 was a Peace day. The choir was supposed to take a nice long trip. The Phi Zeta boys opened the formal season at the Country Club with gals from over 300 miles. The Cas- talians followed through with more wisteria. The month of May again. Class work was slow tor ture. The Campus Notables had a great day or was it a night? The Community Chest drive began again after months of delay. The Philo formal opened the month. The Thetas were next in the Pompeian room. The Sigs closed the season with a “garden party.” The merry, merry madness began with the primary. The campaign was as much fun as ever. It gets pro¬ gressively better (or worse) every year. Imagine ten years from now, oh boy! Mellen handed over the gavel to his successor. He was the better man, of course, or was he? The sociology class did not take a trip to the slums of Chicago. The May Queen was crowned with due (not dew) solemnity. It was time to think of finals—and vacation. Well, here it is June already. A few exams and the year is over for the under classmen. But the seniors— play soft music pliz: Mingled joy and sorrow. There is a hectic week for the graduates, with musicals, luncheons, receptions, speeches, and a trip that isn’t everything it’s cracked up to be. The seniors got their degrees and the Phi Zeta award went to the best sen¬ ior (or did it?). I can’t tell you much more about this month. If you think writing about June in the middle of April is fun, try it some time. And now that I’m a Bachelor of Arts, mostly the first—Nuts to Youse Guys and Congratulations to Dean Morlock. “The sociology class did not take a trip to the slums.” (112) PERSONALITY cecile hovda Gee, Cecile, you’re a lucky girl!

Bosse, Pres. A Dillar, A Dollar, A Ten O’clock Scholar by Ogden Gnash Of the many deep problems with which a student grapples None is more vexing than that of Compulsory Chapels. By virtue of mandates handed down by faculty powers He must cut only three or lose some of his hours. To add to his woes, it seems well nigh impossible To cook up reasons for overcuts which Torbet thinks plausible. One never knows on Mondays, for one thing, If he’s in for a lecture or some creature who thinks she can sing; It might be, as I say, a villainous soprano Or an eleven-year-old boy playing the piano. The chief objection to Monday programs is that some particularly violent number May offer a serious handicap to students in slumber. A sentiment I would much like to stir up Is a clamour for more lectures on “When I was in Yurr-up” Since these relatively quiet affairs are perfectly in keeping With a delightful half-hour of uninterrupted sleeping. If I could approach Lord Byron’s genius in his satirical lays I would go on to show how these Fine Arts Chapels are a misuse of the phrase. There is a way to escape one chapel every week, which is some small relief. On the grounds of incompatibility of religious belief. I’ve been tempted at times to steadfastly insist That I was everything from an untouchable to an atheist. But if one is unfortunate enough not to escape Wednesdays, he must sit through a sermon Which is less interesting usually, than those given by Mr. Thurman. Precautions against students sleeping are taken by making a racket At points in the program, accompanied by Brackett. Sleep is also rendered unlikely by placing in the student’s hand A printed order of worship requiring, now and then, that he stand. It tears my heartstrings to see a poor student, madly translating for 10:35 French Have to put down the book and rise from the bench. It seems there ought to be more consideration For those who wish to study or carry on a conversation. I am one of those persons, who, unlike the mystics, Put a great deal of stock in careful statistics. By this means I have been able to discover That more cuts are taken for Wednesday Chapel than any other. While I would like to show why these figures have an unpleasant connotation I must move on to the Friday sessions of the Student Government Association. There is some possibility on Friday mornings that There will be no assembly, since the Great Saint Pat Is not always able, by his own confession, To find a decent excuse for calling students into session. I think perhaps it might be of some interest to you To set down the results of a recent personal interview In which Mr. Mellen courteously outlined the procedure most often used To track down programs calculated to keep a Friday congregation amused. “To begin with,” said His Excellency, carefully wiping off the neck of his Coca-Cola bottle, “I rather thoughtfully consider the problem on Monday, in much the manner of Aristotle; I gather some ideas, occasionally, from idle remarks picked up in the halls; And, ordinarily, on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, make a few calls. If, by Thursday, however, nothing has happened, rather than dwell with it, 1 simply write No Assembly on the blackboard and say, ‘Oh, the heck with it.’ ” Only lack of space, I assure you, prevents an effusion Of protests on this general state of affairs, and brings me to an ill-timed conclusion.

( 135 ) DOODLERS ' DOINGS This bit of doodling was scratched out by Gladys Bruner in Dr. Van Keuren’s Victorian poets. When asked what inspired the drawing, she answered, “It must have been something he said.” Could it be possible that this is Bruner’s impres¬ sion of the Doctor? This puge is dedicated to E. C.’s doodlers, those people who doodle in their texts and notebooks because their minds are developed to such an extent that simply listen¬ ing to a lecture is not enough to engage their entire at¬ tention. Frank Kleiderer borders everything with Indian symbols. And he also does a wow of an Indian dance, with war paint, feathers, snakes and drums. It’s the real thing. And now another “It must have been something he said” by Gladys Bruner. This creature wears glasses; therefore, it must be Prof. Heber “Eugene the Jeep” Walker. It does rather resemble Walker, doesn’t it? “Concept of a Concept” by surrealist Jane Shute, and creat¬ ed in Prof. Cope’s educational psychology. Looks more like a misconcept, or it could he a fly’s nightmare of a spider web. And Pauline Bush who also takes educational psychology, brings forth this “Abstract Con¬ cept of Jane’s Concept of a Concept.” Possibly she just had a hit of a fuss with Bennett. Students and faculty members in classes pose unknowingly for Carleton Keck. This model is Edward Grabert, Evansville college ' s “A” average won¬ der child. You better make sure that you always sit behind Keck if you don’t want this to happen to you. And now we bring y ou an example of doodling by a faculty member, no less. Prof. M or lock draws houses and houses and then cuts them out of solid wooden blocks and paints them white with brown trimmings. Further¬ more, he is building one life-size at 713 S. Rotherwood. Among the countless chemistry and calculus equations in “Einstein” Erickson’s notebook was discovered this little sketch. Perhaps “Einstein” gives himself away with this. It might he slightly suggestive of his true mental condition. ( 136 ) “Now tell me, Jimmy, what do you know about dates?” “Why, Jean, dates are very important — especially dated milk.

You begin modest and work up. That’s the way I done. I wanted a seat in the assembly first. I went to the big boys of the party which I thought would win and sez I was willin’ to be a candidate and re¬ ceive the accompanyin’ publicity and honor. They sez, “That is fine. Are you a man of the peepul?” I said, “Why, ye-e-es, I’m for the peepul, or what amounts to the same thing, I’m for the office¬ holders and their dependent relatives, bu t don’t quote me.” They sez, “We always thought you had an understands’ heart, and bein’ a perfesser you oughta get a lot of votes, for the average voter sure has faith in perfessers. Just put fifty dollars into the vote-gettin’ basket, obey orders, and we’ll do the rest.” That was just what I done. I throwed my hat into the ring and my dollars into the basket and the intelligent voters of this district singled me out. I won a seat. In the next session of the legislature I followed orders, and the boys treated me swell. Motion pictures managers gave me passes to all their shows. The biggest hotels gave me lots of free meals, and the country clubs sent limousines after me and I wined and dined in class. Then, to their shame, some of the taxpayers started to write me letters, not at all flatterin’, about township trustees, too many office-holders, spoils system, high taxes, poor service and other trivial matters, the same of which made my blood boil. I was just about to write them my opinions when some of the big shots come in and advised a milder policy. I sez, “Since you feel that way about it I will vote for the union of two townships outside my constituency,” the same of which ideas was put into law. That cut the number of trustees from 1017 to 1016. Then the boys cooked up a scheme to provide security for everybody but the taxpayers and provide a thousand jobs for members of the party. Then I gave them a lecture on patriotism. I told them there wasn’t so many offices as there used to be, that this civil service stuff was ruinin’ party loyalty; that peepul wouldn’t spend even a nickel for firecrackers any more; that patriotism was awful low. The boys sez not to have a fit, that the ship of state was pretty safe yet, and if I would carry out orders they would send me to Washington some time at 20c a mile. So we come to an understanding We brought Prosperity. The boys sez they wanted me to run again “on my record.” So I went around kissin’ babies, and greeted young ladies all over the constituency, and made some fine speeches, and put some bigger eggs in the basket. I was elected again. That may have been because lots of my political friends had offices the same of which my votes in the assembly and my influ¬ ence had been able to get for them. To show their appreciation they got out and told their friends, in several ways, what a great man I was. It wasn’t long ’fore the next election. The boys come ’round and sez, “You’re a real statesman. W e want you to run on your double record.” I sez there had been plenty of double stuff, all right, but that I would retire on my pension of two hundred a month and let some other man of the peepul have a chanct.
