But — that is not all. The buildings surrounding the familiar horseshoe drive represent more than a school. Here is the springboard to the future, a preparation for a lifetime vocation. The student pictures his life in college as a chance for advancement through his social life, along with his academic training ; friendships made here are lasting and valued. Faculty and administration, to the stu- dents, are not dead beings, but live, helpful and friendly persons who make college challenging and en- joyable. The students are proud of their college grounds and of the seasonal views; the colorful autumn leaves which decorate the campus in the fall; the barren trees, made picturesque by the infrequent snow flur- ries in the winter; the holiday scene. with multi-colored lights gleaming through the glass panes; and the blossoming shrubs, flowers and trees which turn the PLACE into a sweet- scented, lazy park in the spring. The quaintest scene, however, is the one which brings the campus to life — the PEOPLE. Evansville Col- lege ' s enrollment of 1400 includes a majority of in-town students, linking this streetcar college in close bonds with the city and community. Clas- sified with the in-town students are the foreign students who come from abroad to make Evansville their temporary home and the College their center of life. The out-of-town stu- dents, with few exceptions, are from the Tri-State. . the. place . . . . The People . . . The Events . . . INTERMINGLING FROM DAY TO DAY in classes, school activities and extracurricular events, this co-educational student body branches out into the numerous organizations, becoming fraternity brothers, sorority sisters, independents or members of the veterans ' association. Rivalry and competition are stiff during the big campus elections, but at all other times the groups work together to promote the best and most outstanding examples of Life-in-College. Vespers, coffee hours, recitals, formal dances, sweater hops, theater productions and many other pro- grams are staged weekly, monthly or quarterly, providing a variety of out-of -class activities — the EVENTS. With the opening of fall classes, also comes sports. The crackling roar of the bonfire sets off Home- coming, a most exciting and challenging event to the students. The pigskin spirit soars; students and faculty attend pep sessions for the big team. The Hoosiers are still hysterical when it comes to a good rough ' n ' tough game of basketball. Cheerlead- ers and pep bands were on hand to boost school spirit. Starting with the new year and on into spring are rush, the campus va- riety show, the Military Ball, the spring play and the annual Awards- Mother ' s Day on May 1, with spring sports mixed in. With commencement activities and graduation exercises, another school year is completed — another year of learning and fun is past. The PLACE still looms in the circle ; the PEOPLE will return and the EVENTS with them — • for all are magnificent parts of LinC, Life-in-College. i. THE SCENT DFVICTDRY . the events 3 And one of the special PEOPLE . . WE, THE STUDENTS, are here to get something out of college — something very valuable in leading us into a successful lifetime vocation. The faculty and College give us this opportunity, but we must work and accept the responsibilities. The faculty are a part of the PEOPLE ; they make the PLACE and EVENTS alive and meaningful to us. They are hu- man — more so than we students imagine. And one you might meet walking across campus on a cold, wintry day is that attractive woman, wear- ing a bright-red corduroy coat, belted at the waist; on her head, a matching beret, tilted to one side, barely cover- ing her snow-white hair ... or in the spring, wearing a trimly fitted suit . . . but whatever the season, her step would be brisk, her carriage erect and her head high. A closer look would reveal a glow of warmth, a serene look in her sparkling gray eyes, framed by rimless glasses; and a broad, pleasant smile to match her features. WHO IS SHE? Everyone would like to know her, for she has that genuineness that is so rare . . . Meet Miss Wahnita DeLong, head of the English department at the College. But this introduction really isn ' t necessary, for almost every stu- dent knows this gracious little lady. Since 1920 thousands of stu- dents have graduated from the College, and all have had the op- portunity to meet and know Miss DeLong. A graduate of Ohio Wesleyan University, the professor came to Evansville College as a faculty member for the summer session of 1920, less than a year after the College opened here. After the summer session she was retained as a permanent faculty member to teach English. At the same time she served as assistant dean of women. Four years later Miss DeLong was made dean of women and served in that capacity until the fall of 1947, when she was promoted to full professorship and, at her request, was relieved of her work as dean to permit her to place more emphasis on creative writing, her special interest at the College. Having attended both Ohio State and Ohio Wes- leyan, she found it difficult to get used to most of the EC students ' living at home. Out-of-town women were then housed at Sweetzer Hall, where the dean lived with them. BORN AT THE TURN of the century in Corning, Ohio, the English instructor has alv ays been inter- ested in poetry and, as one faculty member said, Miss DeLong always has an idea for a poem. She keeps bits of paper lying around so that when an idea Miss DeLong . comes to her she can jot it down. Those who have heard some of her poems, like the quiet beauty and meaning of them. At Christmastime Miss DeLong writes a timely verse for her cards, giving them a most personal touch. One of her poems, Veteran at School, was pub- lished in the New York Herald Tribune, and she is editor of Hoosier College Verse in two volumes. In 1943 this creative writer won first place in a na- tional essay contest with an essay entitled, What Kind of Postwar World Will Women Demand ? MISS DeLONG has been ac- tive in numerous civic and cul- tural groups, as well as those at the College. She has served as a board member of the Evansville Inter-racial Commission and has always been interested in race relations. She is a past board member of the YWCA, a mem- ber of the American Association of University Women and the Women ' s Press Club. Professor DeLong is also a member of the American Asso- ciation of University Professors and has always taken a great interest and been active in work at Trinity Methodist Church. In her free time she loves to garden and can be found often in her rose garden at her home on Bellemeade. Loving to travel, Miss DeLong went abroad last summer to tour the European countries, but she has spent most of her life right here in Evansville, except for living one year in New York when she attended Columbia. HERE AT THE COLLEGE, students may have Miss DeLong as a teacher in class or as an advisor. They may meet her at the English Coffee Hours, which she inaugurated last year; at a sports event; or just strolling through the campus grounds. Students who have known her well have formed a lasting friendship and a warm feeling for the great little lady, making a special point of look- ing her up whenever they are on campus. In spite of her small stature, 5 ' 2 , she has the respect of all who know her and is often consulted by students for help on their personal as well as their scholastic problems. TO THE STUDENTS Miss DeLong is a symbol of the faculty here at the College. She has the longest term of servic e for any EC faculty member and stands as a wonderful example. To her, this book is dedicated, as a symbol of the faculty of Evansville College, who have become a part of every student. They will never be forgotten, for what they teach and symbolize are the highest standards and values, and their goal is educating all in hopes for a better world in which to live. pi IP III II Ill Hi The place changes as it grows . . . but the daily routine continues ... First a vacant spot, then workmen and materials arrived on the scene and there was a sound of hammering as the steel skeleton began to grow — and grow — and grow. One day the scaffolding disappeared, the workmen departed, the doors were opened and, at the March 19 dedication, students were formally introduced to the newest building on campus — the Clifford Memorial Library. Entering the building at first-floor level, they found the circulation desk, reference room, a closed area for reserve books and the informal reading room, a pleasant spot housing recent books and magazines. The faculty and staff discovered their own special reading room on this floor, too. Mounting to second floor, explorers saw a reading area interspersed with open book stacks. Opening off this room were two research cubicles where students could get together over their books. Four research rooms — two for social sciences, one for physical sciences and one for the humanities — were located at top level. Descending to ground floor, they came upon another reading area and more book stacks. A closed area hous- ing archives and collections, the book processing room, the audio-visual seminar room and the Kleymeyer Audi- torium were points of interest on the lowest floor. The voyage of discovery ended, Evansville collegians then settled down to study in their quiet — the ceilings are soundproof, light — there is indirect Hghting all through the building, and — oh, cool, summer days — air-conditioned library. McCurdy Alumni Memorial Union We start the week right . . . coffee at the Union . . . ten a. m. meetings may interfere . . . Everyone, be he bookworm or busy- body, goes over to the Union at least once during the day. Perhaps he goes to eat, perhaps to attend a meeting or maybe just to lounge. Since 1951, the three stories of the McCurdy Alumni Memorial Union have housed the color and excitement of the College ' s social life. Most students have certain favorite spots in the Union. TV fans and ping- pong addicts hasten to the ground floor where they may pursue their sports in the informal lounge and the game room, respectively. Here, the Wooden Indian snack bar and grill broadcasts music and chatter. The first floor sets a more formal note with its cafeteria, formal lounge and the Great Hall, where recitals, lectures and concerts are held. Everything from art to atoms may be seen in the exhibits often displayed on this floor. Students find quiet hours and pleasant listening in the browsing and music rooms. Have a club meeting? Belong to a Greek organization? On a committee? Then it ' s up to second floor to the club- room or one of the numerous committee rooms. Nor does Union activity stop when the sun goes down. Dances, formal and in- formal, dinners and parties keep lights burning late. In fact, socially speaking, whatever the time, whatever the event, the Un- ion building ' s the place. It could be a meeting . . . but it could be 8 Tuesday . . . freshman convo fills the auditorium . . . tardy students race through Ad halls . . . The Administration building, built in 1922, was the first permanent structure erected on the Evansville College cam- pus. Now this senior member graciously presides over the more recent additions. Its halls are busy, for it houses such important departments as Public Rela- tions and the Center for Advanced Study. Here the President, the deans, the registrar, the business manager and some of the professors, also, have their offices. In the Ad building, a student may buy books, register for Evening College and — of course — study, for there are classrooms, too. Here he attends the weekly convocations in the auditorium and views plays presented by the stu- dent drama group. WEVC, the FM radio station, broad- casts from the third floor of the tall building. On the same floor is the audio- visual lab, and at the summit — fourth floor — are the food and textile labs. li 1 The business department — and it certainly lives up to its name! One of the largest departments at Evansville College, it hums with activity as executives-to-be tackle problems of high finance; meanwhile, their future secre- taries literally prepare to take dictation. One of every four students that you meet on the campus is a business major. Collegians find adventure in — of all places — the English department. The excitement of being in a play, putting out a newspaper and taking part in speech contests and debates explains why English courses are definitely not limited to bookworms or themes. Classes are habit forming . . . they come Watch your serve! . . . Batter up! . . . Swing your partner! No need to ask the name of this department. Six hours of physical education are a must for gradua- tion, and with courses such as tennis, Softball and square dancing on the list, the requirement is no hardship. Theory and technique courses are provided here for future teachers and coaches. Whether he ' s in secondary or elementary education, an ed major is easily recognized. He ' s the one flying around to get his practice teaching in, grading all those tests and writing up that report. The purpose behind all this activity is to earn one of the five education de- grees offered by the College. The searchlight of the past is directed on the present in history classes, ranging all the watj from the study of ancient civilizations up to recent American history. Political problems and current events come in for their share of discussion, too. In such classes as nutrition, textile study, interior decora- tion and family finance, the home economics major learns there ' s more to the subject than washing dishes and sweeping the floor. every day ... a frequent enlightenment . The person sitting beside you in- psychology or sociology class may he majoring in those, but it ' s possible that he ' s planning a business or teaching career. Because all students should know what makes people and society tick, they add these courses to their schedules. Pre-ministerial students and those planning to be either professional church workers or useful lay members find many helpful courses in the department of philosophy and religion. ROTC annex ... a temporary structure Wednesday . . . college worship in What with the Band, the A Cappella Choir, the Little Symphony and frequent student and faculty recitals, dull moments don ' t exist in the music department. Parlez-vous Fran ais? . . . Si, senor. . . . Sehr gut, Frdulein. Modern languages taught at Evansville Col- lege provide vocabularies for travel in Germany, France, Spain and the Latin American countries. Yes, we have some temporary buildings at Evansville College, and the Office building is a good place to begin a tour. That student rushing through the halls may be a reporter turning in his newsbeat, for The Crescent has its home beneath this roof. Here, too, are the Reading Clinic and the Health Cen- ter. Many professors have offices here, and the busiest time is during registration. Right behind the Office building is the Fine Arts building. College worship services are held in Medita- tion Chapel, located in the south wing of this structure. Collegiate artists paint and sketch in the art studios of the north wing, while others project in the centrally placed theatre workshop. Across campus is the Annex where we find the Post Office and Supply Room. AFROTC classrooms and of- fices are housed here, too. Follow the sound of music and we come to the Music building, where music majors have a choice of thirteen practice studios. The Women ' s Gym and the Athletic building shelter physical ed classes and all kinds of sports equipment. These, then, are the College ' s temporary buildings. Someday they must go, and modern, permanent struc- tures will rise in their places. The College will feel a bit sorry to see the temporary buildings vanish. After all, they have been temporary for so long that they have earned a permanent place in the story of EC. Meditation Chapel. At the Reading Clinic, freshmen are tested in reading skills, and, if found deficient, are taught to increase their ability to the level for college work. In this depart- ment, too, student teachers help children develop read- ing skill. The art department has classes for would-he art teachers or commercial artists and simpler courses for hobbyists. Valerius, famous Belgian painter, visited here last year. The ROTC program prepares Evansville College men for a commission in the Air Force after graduation. Engineering and Science building Thursday . . . labs take up the biggest High polymer chemistry, thermodynamics, organic chemistry — undaunted by such names, many students choose the chemistry labs as the preparing ground for their future in careers such as engineering and medicine. In the biology labs, pickled dogfish, live frogs and micro- scopes mingle with collegians studying the different phases of botany and zoology. Evansville collegians quickly shortened the name of the Engineering-Science building to the E building, but the list of qualifications which place it among the finest of its kind in the country cannot be diminished. This three-story structure stands on the southeast cor- ner of the College campus. Completed in 1947, the E building is functionally modern with its streamlined styling and latest equipment for classrooms and labora- tories. The structure devoted to science is a large building; it houses twenty laboratories, twelve classrooms and six- teen offices. Yet, all of its 59,601 square feet of floor space are equipped with fluorescent lighting. Every student picks up required hours of science here. However, the faces most familiar to its halls and labora- tories belong to pre-meds, biology majors, nurses and engineering students. Name any kind of laboratory — zoology, chemistry, physics — it ' s here. Engineering students, when they ' re not co-oping at plants or factories, work in the two- story engineering workshop. After this appraising glance, it seems most appropriate that the E building should be the last word in modern construction, for here study the young people who, through science and technology, will build the future. part of the day . . . Under the co-op system, students are employed by various industries while earning their engineering de- grees. As the complications of modern finance and technology increase, numerical knowledge becomes more important, and the math department becomes more thickly popu- lated. A four-year collegiate program, training at Baptist Hos- pital and the use of facilities at community health centers combine to form the school of nursing. Evening College registration Friday . . . doors close . . . Evening College closes, too . . . Lights, cars, people — what ' s going on at the College tonight? Must be some big affair! No, it ' s not a dance or play; the Evening College is in session. For sixteen years, Evansville College has been offering evening classes, and each year the number of persons attending and the variety of classes offered increase. Now it ' s possible to complete a degree in business or liberal arts there or to rack up credits for many other degrees. Besides these, eight certificate-pro- grams are offered at night, providing training in specialized fields such as account- ing, marketing, banking or management. Some of the ay-college faculty teach night classes. Others, teaching only in the evening division, are specialists in their fields of industry or art. Many types of students and ambitions are enrolled ... he may be a teacher, picking up a few more college credits, a craftsman who wants to become an executive or an i executive who wants to learn a craft or hobby. He may be someone who just wants to keep up with what ' s going on in the academic world today. These are the people who liven up the halls during the late hours and keep up the bustle in the business and administrative offices and the bookstore after day students have gone. All the college facilities are on tap for the night shift; even the Union stays up late, too. time and motion study . . . night school They made the halls hum, the students study, and problems less perplexing.

Did Psychology bore, was Chem a closed door And History a mystery or Speech a dull roar? Did books unread rear their ugly head With words for the birds, by Plato said? Well, probably so. But crying for Joe Will help the young whelp not a whit, you should know. He ' s ended his dating and all-college hating Now married and harried — and not graduating. ■ — • Bill Greer WILLIAM LESTER ACKER, JR., B.A., Pre-law; Cadet Wing Commander, Arnold Air society, Executive Officer; Pi Gamma Mu; Tau Kappa Alpha; Debate team; Current Events club; Dean ' s List; Principia Public Affairs conference . . .

During registration he may be unerringly identified by the panic-stricken look on his face and by his erratic motions, as he weaves through the crowd murmuring, Counselor? Counselor? Who is he? Where is he? WHAT is he? A strange language assaults the newcomer ' s ears as he finds his way about the campus and wonders to what dangers he has committed himself. Who is this Ed 207? Is it possible that they keep convicts here? The beginner ' s worst fears are confirmed when he meets THE ENEMY. Known as upper- classmen, these torturers exist only to make miserable the life of the lowly. Fortunately the freshman gains a protective device known as a pod, which sprouts on his head and serves to turn away the wrath of the upperclassmen. As the frosh becomes better able to take care of himself, the pod is shed. Freshmen tend to gather in droves; this urge is particularly strong on Tuesdays at 10 a.m. Then the auditorium is filled with the nodding and swaying of green-clad heads as con- vocation unfolds the whys and wherefores of college life. Finally one June day the sufferer awakens to find the last tint of green faded from his com- plexion; a new sophomore has emerged to heckle next year ' s freshmen. among the books We . . . the students abided by the rules — of our own making. Fine Arts committee Under the co-chairmanship of Connie Miller and Mr. Norman Heim, the Fine Arts committee again this year fulfilled its purpose of culti- vating a greater interest in the fine arts — art, music and dramatics — among the stu- dents at Evansville College. Organizing var- ious art exhibits in the Union building, with. money appropriated by SGA from the student- activity fees, was the principal job of the com- mittee. The buying of new records for the Union music room v as another of the group ' s activities. The committee also investigated the possibility of having books on music and classical records in the new library to extend the interest in these arts on campus. Lockwood, Katter, L. Long, C. Miller, Heim, Attinger, Sander, Heater, Keve. Social Life committee A reception for new faculty members was the first project of the Social Life committee, newly formed this year and co-chairmanned by Jerry Hollis and Miss Corian Stambaugh. The com- mittee also broke the ice, so to speak, when they introduced the freshmen to college social life at the annual Ice-breaker dance early in the fall. A reception for dignitaries participating in the Library Cornerstone ceremonies was given by the group, also. The crowning of the basketball queen during the holiday tourna- ment in December was another responsibility of this committee. A final project was taking part in planning the annual May Day-Honors Day program, at which mothers of the students are guests of honor. Seated: L. Jones, Stambaugh. Standing: McCreary, G. Fisher, Egnew, I. Hollis. Athletic committee This year the Athletic committee of the Stu- dent-Faculty Federation was under the co- chairmanship of Dick Sinclair and Prof. V. C. Bailey. Members of this committee were in charge of the pep and victory assemblies, arranging for various campus organizations to sponsor each program. Fewer but better assemblies was the motto of the group. The campus election of cheerleaders was in the hands of the Athletic committee as was the selection of the candidates prior to the election. Encouraging participation in the campus in- tramural program was another of its activities. D. Martin, Rohleder, Freels, Bailey, Sinclair. Welfare committee Mary Lou Heilman and Dr. Ralph H. Coleman this year headed the V elfare committee of the Student-Faculty Federation. The committee provides for the welfare of all students by sup- plying and maintaining the Health Center, where every student is entitled to receive treat- ment. Provision for this care is included in the student-activity fee. In case of an accident, the student may apply to this group for additional financial aid. The group was also instrumental in getting a refrigerator for the Health Center this fall. Low-cost polio shots for the students were provided this year as a result of the group ' s work. Seated: Wedeking, Atkinson, Jaebker, R. Coleman, P. Mann, M. L. Heilman. Standing: Walls, L. Schmitz. Religious Life committee The Religious Life committee, under the chair- manship of Tony Matthews and Dr. Mearl P. Culver, carried out several projects during 1956-57. Perhaps its most important undertak- ing was arranging programs for Religious Em- phasis Week, when the noted Australian reli- gious leader, Colin Williams, was principal speaker. The committee publicized the Vesper series in which well-known churchmen partic- ipated — Bishop Richard C. Raines, Dr. Matt L. Ellis, Dr. William J. Faulkner, Dr. Myron F. Wicke and Dr. Francis T. Johnson. The com- mittee was in charge of the annual World Uni- versity Service fund drive, also. Funds were raised for the program of material and educa- tional assistance to students in other countries, sponsored by WUS. Seated: Grafton, Matthews, Culver, Brakmeier. Standing: H. Brown, Chance, Hauswald. Publications committee Serving in an advisory capacity to the Cres- cent and LinC staffs is the main duty of the Publications committee, headed this year by Ann Arnett and Prof. F. Woody Werking. Set- ting standards and deciding policy are part of this work, as are decisions about subscription rates, the size of salaries, which workers are to be paid and similar questions.

SGA presidin With new officers in command and a new position added, the Student Government Association hinted that some changes were to be initiated by the group in its 1956-57 program. Leading the organization was Bill Greer, with Doug Barthlow, Phyllis Bunge and Marilyn Kemp Wright assisting him. Curran Cotton was named as the first delegate-at-large to the Administrative Board, filling the new office that had been created to maintain student majority on that board. Beginning their program with a summer basket picni c, SGA, Student Senate and the Presidents ' roundtable continued their program of changes with official approval for a different type of campus attire — Bermuda shorts were allowed for summer classwear. Sponsoring the reception for new faculty members in the fall was another of the early SGA projects. The Cornerstone Laying rites for the Clifford Memorial library in October were under the sponsorship of the campus government organization, also. The placing of a time capsule in the cornerstone was a highlight of this program. Letters of congratulation from President Dwight D. Eisenhower, former President Harry S. Truman, U. N. Secretary-General Dag Hammarskjold, Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt and other dignitaries were included in the cap- sule. Placed there, also, was a record of the Student Trust Fund scholarship, $100 donated by various organiza- tions on campus, which will be worth $14,000 in A.D. 2006. At the annual Student-Faculty Federation dinner in November, officers and committee members discussed possible projects and made plans for carrying them out. Surveys were the big project of the year. A school-spirit survey, conducted with the aid of The Crescent, indicated that a pep club was wanted. The new pep club and a flash card section at the games were the results, A suggestion contest for improving the Col- lege, with prizes for the best suggestion, was a big success. Conducting an opinion poll, handling elections of class officers, starting a social club for older students, promoting the Crusade for Freedom campaign through Musical Madness, and improving the pep assemblies were additional undertakings of the association. Besides President Greer, the Roundtable includes the presidents of all campus ' organizations, while the Student Senate is composed of the chairmen of the six Student-Faculty Federation committees and the SGA officers.

Entertainment committee Dance committee Whom will we get to chaperone the next Club Tropicana dance? You shouldn ' t have waited till the last minute again! Why don ' t we change these decorations a little bit? That palm tree just doesn ' t look right there. And so it goes. Behind every Union function is a committee which has to plan every detail, and each of the committees is headed by a chairman who is elected to the Union Board in the spring. These chairmen each have a large appointed group of interested and active students who make decorations, plan menus and run errands. V ithout these committees the Union events could not be planned and carried out successfully. To the beat of the bongo drums down in the Patio, students mambo in a tropical setting at the Club Tropicana dances. Known formerly as sweater hops, these dances are originated by the Dance committee. It also handles the ar- rangements for the all-campus ride and Mu- sical Madness, which until this year was Kampus Kapers. Rounding up Old Saint Nick for the all-cam- pus Christmas party is an Entertainment com- mittee duty. It is busiest in the spring however, when the Union entertains prospective EC stu- dents at a series of parties for high school seniors. Those responsible for initiating the Platter Parties are the Personnel and Games com- mittees. But these two groups have other duties besides the afternoon coke dances. The Per- sonnel committee handles the committee ' s per- sonnel records and conducts the Union Work- shop in the fall, while the Games committee handles all things athletic in the Union. The Finance and House committees try to make all student projects involving the Union profitable and do their share toward keeping the student phase of the Union in condition. Decorating for Homecoming and Christmas and the caring for the reading and music rooms are all functions of the House committee. Its biggest event is Activities Day in the fall. Finance sells tickets for all money-making projects and conducts the Union Board elec- tion in the spring. Serving as a liaison between the Union and the people of Evansville is the Social com- mittee. This committee entertains several times during each quarter with a coffee hour follow- ing the Vesper programs in the Great Hall. And, once a year when the Union becomes a year older, this group is responsible for a birthday party. Thus the Union functions as an integral part of campus life, the committees working throughout the year to keep activities and events running smoothly. Ball, Oldham, M. L. Heilman, B.

This is a familiar word to the Greek world of sororities and fraternities as each year the organized groups go on an all-out campaign to secure new members. For the women, the sororities had a pre-rush party in November in the form of a rotation party. The national sororities of Alpha Omicron Pi, Beta Sigma Omicron, Chi Omega and Phi Mu entertained the Gamma Delta freshman girls and those upperclassmen who were interested. The Union building was turned into a flight terminal where the girls visited the four sororities. In France, Phi Mus served an appetizer; the South American salad was provided by the AOPis; Beta Sigs dressed as In- dians and took charge of the main dish, while the Chi Omegas served dessert under the tropical palms of Hawaii, January is the big rush month for the sorori- ties as it is filled with a series of informal din- ners and formal dessert parties. Silence is a special week during the rush activities during 4 which the sorority girls are not allowed to carry on conversations with rushees and vice versa. This is strictly hello week. As the formal parties close, the exciting day arrives — pledge day — climax to the parties, silence and the signing of bids. After pledge- dom, what? Initiation. Actives at last! Wait — don ' t relax yet — it ' s time for Spring rush, but it includes only a week of informal parties — will it ever end? Fraternities rush, but not so silently! New rushing rules for men and the authorization of open rush, for the first time on campus, were approved by the Interfraternity council. Under the new plan, informal rush was permitted at any time except during formal rush months — October and February. The first and second weeks of these two months were for formal rush parties, and the remainder of the month was open for the pledging of all men. The five fraternities of Acacia, Lambda Chi Alpha, Pi Epsilon Phi, Sigma Phi Epsilon and Tau Kappa Epsilon competed during the rush seasons. Help week opened pledgedom for the new pledges as the various groups began work on their projects. Formal dinner parties completed the initiation of these men into the active ranks. Colorful pledge hats were worn, and ribbons and pi ns decorated both male and female sweaters as pledges proudly displayed their affiliation with a Greek organization. Men ' s rush . . . hungry men . . . and where ' d they hide the food? Freshman girls learn abc ' s of sorority life Open to all freshman women. Gamma Delta was organized early in the fall quarter. This group was particu- larly active m the period just before winter rush and gave the girls a chance to become better acquainted with each other and the four sororities on campus. ' 1?°™ ' ° ° sorority duties as they worked together on a campus display for Homecom- ing. Officers were elected and at weekly meetings, programs were held and parties given. They talked over the advantages and disadvantages of sorority life with representatives from each of the four women ' s Greek organ- izations. In November, Panhellenic Council gave a progressive dinner for Gamma Del ta, rotating the courses among the sororities. In return, the freshman group entertained the Greeks at a Christmas party in December The years activities wound up just before rush with last-minute preparations and instructions for taking part in rush ac- tivities.

Collins, Feltman, Hartley, Alpha Omicron Pi was Sitting on Top of the World with its Homecoming float, or at least that ' s where they put the Aces, on top of a revolving globe in the middle of a football field. But earlier in the fall, taking time out from float-building activities, the AOPis had initiated Sharon Kiltz and Jackie Nich- olson into their organization. In November the gals donned Car- men Miranda originals to entertain Gamma Delta down South America way at the rotation party. Fruit salad was their provision for the progressive dinner, and between skits, the AOPis taught the girls how to conga. The Founder ' s Day Tea ushered in December for the actives, their mothers and alumnae. A memorial service was also held at the death of the last founder of Alpha Omicron Pi, and the girls wore black ribbons under their pins for a week. Rush parties began when school re- opened in January. Following their traditional party themes, the AOPis en- tertained rushees at The Blue Note, and at the Formal Rose Dessert. Ten pledges were taken in on Pledge Day and were guests of honor at a slumber party that night and at the Pledge Tea the following day. Spring quarter the AOPis were kept busy with Musical Madness and their social service project, the Frontier Nursing Service. To help this organiza- tion, actives and pledges washed cars and scrubbed white sidewalls. Recog- nition roses went to actives and pledges with the highest scholastic average and to those showing the most improvement. Before starting plans for the Spring Formal, the AOPis journeyed to De- Pauw, March 23, for State Day. May Day brought the presentation of the Outstanding Senior award, and graduating actives were honored by the rest of the group at a party to say farewell. But activities did not end with graduation, for summer saw the AOPis busy at work on decorations for In- diana Day at their National Conven- tion in Chicago.

Feudin ' , Fussin ' and Fightin ' was the theme of this papier-mache masterpiece using the timely donkey and elephant political symbols, dis- played on a colorful football field. The Betas whooped it up as Indi- ans at their Gamma Delta party in the Union grill. Cornstalks and straw gave the place a real redskin atmosphere. Chicken-pot pie, the main course, was served to the freshman girls. Artistically made mobiles hung from the Ad and Union halls as the Beta Sigs gaily wished everyone a Merry Christmas. During the winter quarter Betas ini- tiated Nora Lou Yeager and Linda Harmon into their ranks. Informal and formal parties kept these girls plenty busy in January as the key word was rush. Pledge teas and pinning ceremonies followed the exhaustive round of parties, but all the girls agree it was worth it. February drew to a close for the group as the Betas had their annual Mother ' s dinner, and work then began on the campus musical show for the Crusade for Freedom. Auditions, re- hearsals, costumes — the curtain went up in March for the big production. April and May mean spring formats, and another gay dance was held by the Betas for their escorts. On May Day the sorority presented an award to the outstanding senior girl in Beta Sig. May also saw the Betas working on SGA elections and plan- ning farewell parties — at times busi- ness and pleasure can be mixed — for school was nearing the end.

And the pastel-colored, revolv- ing, musical carousel, with the slogan Give ' em a Whirl, Aces, brought the sorority its firs t float victory. The Chis also saw one of their sisters crowned as queen of the festivities. During the first term, the Chis and their alumnae gathered for their annu- al fall feast for which the alum group li.;.- were hostesses to the actives. In November Chis donned bright- colored sarongs and alohaed Gam- ma Delta girls to the Chi Omega Ha- waiian Isle where heavenly hash dessert was the special dish. Gala red and green decorations mean Christmastime, and Chi Ome- ga ' s annual Christmas kindness was displayed through the ornamented and lighted Christmas tree in the Ad hall. Holiday season means Holiday Tourney and the Chis were on hand at the net events to see a Chi Omega reign as basketball queen. This was another first for these Greek girls. The new year brought rush activities and new pledges. Then work began on the campus variety show as the Chis entered the Musical Madness pro- ductions with songs and dances from Siam. Greeks galore, Chi Omegas that is, were found at the sorority ' s annual Spring State Day at the capital city. The merry month of May means a busy month for the Chis. On May Day their annual Social Science award was presented, and their favorite professor breakfast again proved a popular event. The year drew to a close as fresh- man, sophomore and junior actives said Farewell, seniors at their annual senior party.

Soon after Phi Mu initiated Leslie Long, Janice Phelps, and Deanna Lamble at the beginning of the fall quarter, the new sisters were put to work on the Homecoming float, along with the rest of the sorority. Going patriotic this election year, the Phi Mus chose as their song title, It ' s a Grand Ol ' Flag, their float depicting Betsy Ross and her original thirteen-star flag, and the flag from World War II being raised at Iwo Jima. Fall was also a time for social af- fairs. A Philomathian Hour Tea for the faculty was held in the Union Lounge, and the active chapter entertained its alums at a tea several weeks later. Gamma Delta took a trip to gay Paree for cocktails and hors d ' oeuvres at the rotation party. Staffed with French maids, the Salon de Phi Mu showed the gay side of Paris night life with the traditional can-can, a Jacques in ze box, and a chanteuse. With the advent of winter rush, rush- ees were entertained in a Winter Wonderland and at the traditional Formal Perfume Party. Thirteen pledges wore the rose and white on Pledge Day and got acquainted with their new sisters at a slumber party that night. New pledges and their mothers were honored at a tea after the pledging ceremony the following Sunday. Winding up the winter quarter with plans for an act in Musical Madness, the Phi Mus jumped into spring activi- ties. A Musical Philomathian Hour was held and the alums presented an achievement award to the junior with the highest scholastic record at the annual Founder ' s Day dinner. Given for the first time, were Philomathian Scholastic awards for the highest point average and the greatest scholastic improvement. On March 23, members went to In- dianapolis for State Day, followed two weeks later by District Convention in Bloomington. Spring activities also included a mother-daughter party when the moth- er who had done the most for the so- rority that year was presented the Mother ' s Pin. The Outstanding Senior was named on May Day, and Com- mencement brought to a close a full year for the Phi Mus. she ' ll wear the golden heart and hand . . . Front row: Phelps, Bunge.

Men wearing lumber- jack shirts and chopping down trees, illustrated the ap- propriate theme — Fell ' em Aces. Their annual Founder ' s Day banquet, with the Orchid formal following, was the highlight of Acacia ' s social calen- dar this year, as it has been in the past. Lesser social events included informal dances at their house on Mulberry street, following both football and basketball home games. Another social activity that has become a tradition with the Acacians is crest-painting parties, held in the basement of the Acacia chapter house. Lining the basement walls are the crests of the four sororities on campus, painted there by members of the sororities they represented. Members of the Acacia fraternity attended the National Conclave, held at Indiana university at the close of 1956, with a majority of members attending. In January Acacia entertained their National Field secre- tary for a few days. The field secretary was here to help plan rush activities and to look over the chapter house and grounds. 76 Front row: Griffin, R. King, N. Long, Etheridge, G. Davis.

The brown and white spotted cur moved its head, wiggled its ears, opened and closed its mouth and wagged its tail. November also found Lambda Chi, after being colonized for a year, receiving its charter from the national office. A stag dinner, followed by a formal dance, highlight- ed the installation November 17. A mail sack of tele- grams poured over the wires from chapters through the country with over 100 men from chapters of Lambda Chi Alpha coming personally. After the fever of the installation had died down the fraternity members made Christmas candles to sell along with their Christmas trees, now an annual affair. On the week end of January 26, nineteen fall pledges were initiated. Following Phi Zeta tradition, the new initiates were given a Swiss-steak dinner at the Alpine House. This spring the Lambda Chis held an all-Greek party with the accent on ancient Greek costumes. Special features of the festivities were skits by the Chi Omegas and the crowning of Jupiter and Juno, king and queen of the gods. The Lambda Chis ended the year with their annual White Rose Formal for actives, alumni and their dates. Here the Lambda Chi Crescent girl, or sweetheart, was crowned.

Although the second youngest fraternity on campus, Sigma Phi Epsilon was second-to-none at Homecoming time. The Sig Eps took first prize in the men ' s division of the Home- coming floats with their three colorful perfume bottles la- beled Tabu, Danger and Surrender. The bottle labeled Sur- render was shaped like an atomizer and atomized as the float moved. For the second consecutive year the Sig Eps received the Mr. Community Chest — Red Feather — award, with Larry Horton getting the honors for raising the most money for the local group. In February the Sig Eps had a car wash at two local gas stations to raise funds for the national Heart Fund drive. They ended the month with their annual all-Greek party, featuring the pinning of their chapter sweetheart in a spe- cial candlelight ceremony. A spaghetti dinner was served. The third annual card party and style show was held in the Empire room of the Hotel Vendome on April 2. Ending the year was State Day for all Sig Eps. Held at Terre Haute this year, it was followed with a dance and banquet at Indianapolis. 80 Front row: Ed Campbell, J. Schneider, J. Jerger, Diekhoff, Rohleder, Yarger, Rose, P. Donahue, Titzer.

Pi Epsilon Phi . . . wearers of black and gold 1723 Lincoln avenue . The high point in Pi Epsilon Phi ' s year, as it is every year, was the production of the Philo Blackouts, top entertainment produced by the Philos for the general public. This year, as in other years, the Philos sold Christmas trees during the Yuletide season and held car washes to raise funds. The oldest fraternity on campus. Pi Epsilon Phi was founded in 1854, the same year that Evansville College was formed and established. They are also the only fraternity on campus that is not associated with a national organiza- tion. The Philos won the award for the best house decoration during the Homecoming celebration with a hound dog kicking dirt on an Indiana State football player with the accompanying phrase Bury ' em. Aces. The float they entered in the annual Homecoming Day parade was a bigger-than-life-size locomotive which chugged down the parade route — sporting the gold crepe paper slogan — Choo! Choo! Chew ' em up, Aces! Members of the Philos worked hard for the Community Chest drive; just as they worked hard in the class and SGA elections. The Philos spent long hours getting their act ready for this year ' s production in Musical Madness, which by the students ' reaction was well worth the effort. The spring formal and naming of the sweetheart ended the social ac- tivities for the year. 82 Front row: M. E, Hicks, T. Mueller, Kasey, Browning, Briley, D.

Tau Kappa Epsilon ... the cherry and gray 1103 Lincoln avenue The big moment for Tau Kappa Epsilon came in February when it bought its new chapter house and moved activities to 1103 Lincoln avenue. The purchase of the house was made possible by the alumni association which has prom- ised its further support. Having few pledges because they were still a colony, Teke actives took over the jobs of clean- ing, moving and decorating — jobs usually delegated to their pledges. Taken into the national Tau Kappa Epsilon organization in 1955 and colonized in 1956, the Tekes are expecting in- stallation in the near future. J. Ervin Taylor, president of the Board of Control, holds what the Tekes believe to be the longest pledgeship on record — 33 years. Taylor, who originally pledged at Indi- ana University, was initiated along with the younger mem- bers when the colony was started on campus. Entering a float in the annual Homecoming Day parade, the Tekes covered three willing members with gold and silver paint and set them up to look like figures on a trophy for the Aces. The theme of their float was — Victory. Ron Basham, their president, served as general chairman for the parade. The Tekes ' biggest social event of the year was their New Year ' s Eve dance, but after moving into their new home they celebrated with several parties. Campuswise, the Tekes sponsored a bonfire-pep rally before one of the January basketball games. 84 Front row: W. Wiggers, D. Brown, Basham, Bowen Second row: Julian, Gambrel, Stone, C.

Panhellenic council Sorority members, fraternity members and independ- ents — all meet and mingle at Evansville College. Vari- ous councils designed to promote co-operation and friendship among these different factions have been set up. One such body is the Women ' s council. Each year all women on the campus elect members to the coun- cil. Both independent and sorority women are repre- sented. Mrs. Charlotte Stephens acts as advisor. This year Women ' s council started something new by holding the fall Gamma Delta party during orienta- tion week rather than waiting until school had started. Unworried by studies, the freshman women attended in greater numbers than ever before. Other council activities were providing each fresh- man woman with a big sister, decorating the Ad building lobby at Christmas, the recognition dinner in honor of outstanding women on the campus and a share in May Day ceremonies. During the year, the Panhellenic council continued to hold bi-monthly meetings. Mrs. Stephens sat in as advisor when the heads and representatives of the four sororities got together to discuss such important activi- ties as.rush and the enforcement of rules. Hello Week was introduced to the campus by Pan- hellenic. This project gave freshman and organization women a chance to become acquainted. The first Panhellenic workshop at Evansville College was held in the fall. Another first was the replace- ment of the separate Gamma Delta parties previously held by each sorority with a single rotation party sponsored by all sororities. The pledge dance saw the end of rush and the spring farewell dinner for seniors rounded out the year. Masculine counterpart to Panhellenic is the Inter- fraternity council. Dr. Virgil Logan advises the group, which is composed of two representatives from each fraternity. IFC is active in such matters as regulation of the new open rush system and solving problems concerning fraternities. IFC liked the idea of Hello Week so well that they, too, adopted Panhellenic ' s friendly gesture. Interfraternity council Boyles, C. David, D. Brown, V. Logan, J. Keller, Barney, ]. Foster, R.

With membership based only on grades, Laurels is the one truly scholastic honorary on campus. To be eligible for membership in this society, a student must be a senior and must have completed 120 credit hours, 80 of these in residence at Evansville College. At the end of the winter quarter, the student must have an over-all grade point average of 2.5 or above. Full membership in Laurels is won by maintaining the 2.5 average for over 50 hours. Thus, composed of top-ranking students. Laurels has as its goal the recognition and encouragement of superior scholastic attainments. Organized during the 1954-55 school year, by the Scholastic Honors committee, the society was formerly guid- ed by Dr. Daniel Boughner, as chairman. During Dr. Boughner ' s leave of absence on a Guggenheim Fellowship, Dr. Wade David has been heading the group. Twenty students were elected to membership on April 2 — Ann Arnett, Joyce Becker, Margie Dennis, Marilyn Grayson Dockery, Faye Forster, William C.

EC students who demonstrated outstanding qualities in leadership again this year were honored with the titles of Campus Leaders and Campus Notables. Still other ECers of exceptional ability were listed in Who ' s Who among Students in American Universities and Colleges. Twenty-one Evansville College students rated the V ho ' s Who listing this year. Both excellence in scholarship and leadership in extra-curricular activities were factors considered by the faculty nominating committee which submitted the list of outstanding students to Who ' s Who. Promise of future usefulness to business and society was also considered. The method of selecting Campus Leaders and Campus Notables underwent a thorough revision this year. For- merly a student committee had presented a list of nominees to the faculty, who then chose the collegians to be honored. This means of selection was felt to be inadequate since deserving students were sometimes overlooked be- cause their activities didn ' t bring them to the attention of both students and faculty.

As the distinction between Notables and Leaders was rather vague, new definitions of each classification were worked out. The Campus Notable must be a full-time student with at least a 2.0 average for four quarters previous to the selection date. According to the new standards, he must have shown outstanding leadership in at least one activity. Five of the graduating class were chosen as Notables. Leadership quality as a member of many organizations was one factor considered in the naming of 12 stu- dents as Campus Leaders.

Records are made to be broken, and John did just that. During the 1953-54 season, playing only during the last half as a regular, John scored a total of 225 points, with a .387 shooting average. In his sophomore year, his final total climbed to 354 points and a .398 shooting percentage. In 1955-56, sidelined by an emer- gency appendectomy during the last third of the campaign, John compiled a total of 301 points and a .407 percentage from the field. Spectacular as the three previous seasons were, this year the old pro made 599 points for a four-year total of 1479 points. This surpasses the record of Bob Barnett set in 1947-51 of 1348 points. Adjectives used to describe this 6 ' 2 forward are totally inadequate, as the automaton of the Ace quintet continues to defy all defenses in their effort to control his phenomenal ability to score at will. John is married and has a two-year-old daugh- ter, Judy. Judy generates the enthusiasm of the Aces ' followers in all home-town games, acting as a yell leader, with her daddy ' s 12 proudly dis- played on a white sweater. Professional basketball is John ' s goal after graduation, and Coach Arad McCutchan wishes him well, even as he uses the crying towel at the thought of his going. (Picture on following page) N.

Arad McCutchan, popular cage coach, began this year ' s campaign with an experienced squad. John Harrawood, Clyde Cox, Jim Smallins, Bob Wessel and Harry Osterman were the returning lettermen. Harrawood, who has starred for four years, Clyde Cox, a Kokomo native, and Jim Smallins were the nucleus around which the team was built. Returning letterman Bob Wessel added strength, but it was two sophomore guards, Harold Cox and Hugh Ahlering, who added the fire to the squad that took them into the NCAA play-offs at the end of the season. Playing before the largest opening-game crowd in years, 10,500, the Aces lost a close one when they bowed to Purdue, 62-60, at the new Roberts Municipal Stadium. John Harrawood hit a jump shot, from way out, with three seconds to go, to give EC a win over Denver Univer- sity at the Holiday Tournament, which also included Boston College and Mississippi State. The Evansville fans rushed onto the floor to congratulate the courageous EC five. Once again the Aces showed their ability to play their best ball as they battled the Kentucky Wesleyan Panthers in a double overtime win, 95-91. Captain John Harrawood really came to the fore, playing the best game of his career, to lead the Aces to victory with 42 points. At the end of the regular ' 56- ' 57 season, EC found it- self with a winning season: 17 wins, 7 losses. In the first game of the NCAA tournament, EC won over Illinois Normal, 108-96. Next came the Buffalo Bulls and, had the Aces been given any breaks, they might have walked off with another win. Instead they lost a close one, 77-75, losing their berth in the tournament.

The 1956 edition of the Evansville College Aces, under the tutelage of head coach Paul Beck and his assistants, ended in a blaze of glory when the Aces downed Ball State, giv- ing them a season of 4 wins and 5 losses. The individual plaudits in scoring go to Kenny Lutterbach with 54 points for the second straight season. Following Lutterbach were Jim Merkley, 25; Corky Thompson, 18; Dick Sinclair, 12; Jim Gray, 12; and Bud George, Ralph Weinzapfel and Jim Aurs each scoring one touchdown. The ground-gainers were headed by Kenny Lutterbach, who powered for 673 yards in 123 carries, despite missing two games, and averaging 5.4 per try. Corky Thompson marked a 6.0 average. Bud George led the passing department, with 40 com- pletions in 100 times, for 484 yards and 5 touchdowns. Weinzapfel turned in the best job of pass receiving, pulling in 11 passes for 144 yards and 1 touchdown. Jim Aurs caught nine passes for 105 yards, while halfback Lloyd Whittaker led in punting, kicking 16 times for a 34 yard average. Seniors Lutterbach, Merkley, Martin, George, Huff, House, Sinclair, Mattingly and Will played their final sea- son for the Purple and White on an Evansville squad which displayed speed and drive, supported by spirit and de- termination.

Operating around the key- stone were Dave Buckman and Corky Thompson, taking turns at second, with Hugh Ahlering at shortstop. Maneu- vering and handling the hot corner, third base, was Don Mauldin. The formidable bulk of Tom Gehlhausen guarded home plate and rounded out the infield. Behind the infield and taking care of the long ones were Richie Thompson, Clyde Cox, Ken Lutterbach and Chuck House. Pitching was bolstered by the return of stalwart veterans Bud George, Ron Weinzapfel, Jim Merkley, Bob Derring- ton and the return of serviceman Jim Hood. Rookie John Harrawood provided the needed depth to give the staff balance. A good bench will win many games and freshman Bill Thurneck filled in very well with the good bench strength of Coach Ping.

After slack- ing off to only one team last year, the women decided to show their skill and strength against the men again this year. Almost everyone in the tournament had a crack at first place, only to fall again to the scores of another bowler. Most consistent top-placers were AFROTC, AFROTC Cadets and Sig Eps, with Lambda Chi holding the lead for a couple of weeks. Gamma Delta I was the biggest threat of the women when it outbowled the AFROTC for one game — the first game the team had lost in two years. Other teams in the league were E club, Philos, SCA, Beta Sigs, AOPi, Faculty and Gamma Delta II. Girls try hand at intramural sports In a special presentation, during our final pep assembly, Bill McCullough and Herb Whitelock were awarded win- ner and runner-up trophies, respectively, for the intramural billiards tournament. McCullough scored the highest in the local tournament, with a 76, during the semi-finals. He then went on to de- feat Whitelock, 75-70, in the final game. Across the game room Larry DeWeese showed precision paddling by defeating Ed Smallwood five games to one, to take first place in the ping-pong tournament. On the hardwood, the AFROTC cagers traveled to Bunker Hill Air Force base for their basketball tournament The men-in-blue defeated Purdue in their first game, 59 - 58, but fell to DePauw, 67 - 57, in the second. Where are all the guys? tournamenf time in the pool room And the Aces topple the Sycamores, 26-14 While fraternities and sororities were working frantically on their floats the night before Homecoming, the rest of the campus was whooping it up at the big pep rally and bon- fire on the northwest corner of the campus. After the cheerleaders had cavorted in front of the fire and the Phi Mu Alpha band had played the school song, the award for the best campus display was presented to the Philos. Their display, in front of their house, was a hound dog burying an Indiana State football player, with the slogan, Bury ' Em Aces. Floats began moving into place around the circle as early as eight o ' clock on Homecoming Day, and some arrived as late as two minutes to twelve — when the parade was supposed to start. Following the familiar route down Lincoln avenue and Main street, with the usual casualties of broken mechanism and missing parts, the parade moved to Reitz Bowl for the Aces ' tilt with the Indiana State Sycamores. At the halftime festivities, Susie Bell, Chi Omega, was crowned Homecoming queen by football player Bill Mattingly. In the queen ' s court were Mary Jean Anderson, Phi Mu; Naomi Pitcock, nurse; Ann Randolph, Beta Sig, and Judy Buffenbarger, AOPi. Also announced at halftime were the winners of the best floats. The Chi Omegas won another victory with their pink-and-white carousel and the slogan, Give ' Em a Whirl, Aces; while Sigma Phi Epsilon topped the men ' s division with their float of giant perfume bottles, Tabu, Dan- ger and Surrender. The Aces, winning their first home game of the season, rode to victory over the Sycamores, 26-14. — : m .: h Chi Omegas float to the top . . Sig Ep ' s victory.

Chair- man Walt Lowe and his committee promoted a big name band for the affair and raised the price of tickets to cover the new expense. Dancing to the music of Jimmy Palmer ' s Hi Fi orchestra, in a setting of gold and silver-leafed trees, students and alums filled the Armory to cele- brate the football victory and end the day ' s fes- tivities. Instead of corsages, escorts presented their dates with the traditional white Homecoming mum, tied in purple ribbons with a purple E. At intermis- sion, the 1956 Homecoming queen, Susie Bell, and her court were presented and she and her date started the second half of the dance by leading the grand march. Later in the year, sorority women entertained their favorite dates with the traditional Valentine ' s Day Pledge Dance. In May, the AFROTC brought a name band to the Evansville campus for the Military Ball, and the social whirl of dances ended late in May with the fraternity and sorority Spring Formals.

Besides informal Unionizing during ten o ' clock breaks and after classes, students enjoyed evenings filled with the noises of combos in the Patio or panto- mimes and dance acts in the Great Hall. Three newcomers to the scene of campus activities were Club Tropicana, Musical Madness and the after- noon Platter Parties. In a night club setting.

Then Christmas was the time for the traditional all- campus Christmas party, and in January the Union celebrated its sixth birthday with a party, for all Col- lege personnel, in the Lounge. Spring activities closed another busy year on campus with all-Greek parties, the Military Ball and May Day-Honors Day. Musical Madness party . . . Chi ' s win trophy for best production . . . The drama department wel- comed back veteran perform- ers and discovered new talent as the Theatre ' s quarterly pro- ductions were presented. Fall quarter the Evansville College Theatre entertained students and faculty with the comedy, Three Men on a Horse. Eager Heart, the traditional Christmas drama, again played to capacity crowds in the Auditorium, as iho College Choir set the mood for the 31st consecutive per- formance. Deviating from the norm, the Theatre presented an interpre- tive reading of George Bernard Shaw ' s Caesar and Cleo- patra for its winter production. Staged in the technique used by the First Drama Quartette, no costumes, scenery, or other similar devices were used. The men were given an op- portunity to display their talent in the spring production, The Caine Mutiny Court-Martial, which was, of course, an all- male cast. Mirrors, make-up and the magic of behind-the-scenes activity during College Theatre performances. College Thespians gallop through a scene from Three Men on a Horse. Also during the spring, sev- eral one-act plays were pre- sented by the students who had worked on them during the fall workshop. On hand to do the dirty work were those essentials of any production — the stage hands or crews, lighting super- visors and costume and make- up committees. They ' re never in the spotlight, but they do their share to give the produc- tion its finished touch.

The music department had Raul Spivak, Musical Ambassador of the Argentine, and Alfred Gallodoro, Triple Threat Reed Instrumentalist, as guest artists, and Pearl and Edwin Kappel, duo vocal artists performed at convocation. Both Mr. Spivak and Mr. Gallodoro held clinics and gave con- certs as well as playing at convocation. Twelve senior and three faculty re- citals were given in the Great Hall. Sixteen juniors presented their pro- grams in a series of eight recitals, as these students doubled-up and held their performances in the Music build- ing. Receptions for the performers were held after each of these performances. Faculty members taking part were Miss Betty Kanable and Professors Nor- man Heim, Robert Rapp and Cecil Selfridge. Fifteen music workshops were sched- uled during the year and were strictly the students ' programs as these work- shops give the beginning music stu- dents a chance to perform. Senior music majors who gave recitals during the year were Seated: Schoolfield, Clapp Standing: Scott, Atkinson, Agee, Swan, Dockery, Doll, Jewell, Schernekau; Lawlor not pictured.

During the Christmas season, the College Choir took part in Eager Heart, while at freshman con- vocation the All-Campus Choir, a newly formed vocal group for anyone desiring to sing, presented Bach ' s cantata, For Unto Us a Child Is Born. The Nurses ' Freshman Choir, also in its first year of existence, sang at Vespers and several chapel services, for Career Day and at Capping exercises. In the spring, members of the College Choir do- nated time from between-quarters vacation to a four-day tour, singing at Indianapolis, Bedford, Aurora, Moores Hill, Columbus, North Vernon, Sey- mour, Hope and Huntingburg. At the library dedication, March 19, the vocal group presented Pioneers, Walt Whitman ' s poem with music by William Schuman. Also in March, the choir hosted local high schools at a choral festival. Other events were TV shows, several concerts open to the public and singing at Vesper Services. Sopranos — Atkinson, Bosley, Dockery, Donham, Drury, Ep- person, Fenneman, Irvin, C.

A triple-threat reed instrumentalist and two con- certs made the news of the year for the Symphonic Band, directed by Prof. Wesley Shepard. On the Band ' s big night in February, Alfred Gal- lodoro, featured guest soloist, carried out the triple-threat. He used a different instrument, sax- ophone, bass clarinet and B-flat clarinet, to play each of the three movements of Ralph Hermann ' s Concerto for Doubles. High school students came from an area of 75 miles to attend the reed clinic conducted by Mr. Gallodoro, who is first saxophonist of the American Broadcasting Company. This was the third year that the Band had sponsored such a clinic for Tri- state instrumentalists. In April a number of students were featured soloists at the Symphonic Band ' s annual spring concert, and at Commencement exercises the Band provided music for the seniors. The high-stepping twirlers and performers of the Marching Band, under the direction of Prof. Nor- man Heim, entertained spectators at all home foot- ball and basketball games.

Jerry Newhouse and Carolyn Conaway pounded out columns. Bill Greer kept the paper posted on SGA news; Jim Barney reported inter-fraternity doings and Barbara Tepool con- tributed feature stories. Eldon Katter, Claire Bensinger, Gail Compton and Joe Thorn finished inside-stories and began work on front-page news. On Tuesday Kay Freels delivered her Comments on the Aces to Larry Sanders — to John Spayd ear- lier in the year — who handled the sports page. Jacob Forston helped proofreading staff members make funny marks on galleys. Doug Barthlow, business manager, had page plans ready each Wednesday. Editor Chanley pasted up front page and checked news- beats handed in by the staff. Next day — -no class, but everyone usually showed up to check assign- ments.

While the concoction was brew- ing, lights burned late in the jour- nalism lab as Editor Eldon Katter checked copy, marked pictures and planned and pasted up pages. Nor was Nancy Chreste idle. Salesmanship and a head for figures helped the business manager to talk up the book and bring in the ads, with the aid of Nancy Coleman, Tom Weeks, Nancy Sander and Phyllis Mann. Connie Miller and Ralph Pritchard added to the commotion, as they lined people up, took down their names and shot them — photograph- ically speaking, after Carol Yokel had made sure they ' d be at the right place at the right time. Meanwhile Marvon Smith and Charlie Hayse wrote about fraterni- ties and sports, and Carolyn Con- away contributed the introductory section. Copy turned in by Carolyn, Leslie Long and Claire Bensinger covered sororities and departments. Art work, end sheets and other illustrations were the handiwork of Dawn Moore, with supplemental car- toons by Smith. Judy Buffenbarger helped with in- dexing, pasting and other odd jobs, and Kay Freels helped by writing much of the sports copy. John Ben- nett lent a typing hand on the senior section. Everyone concerned wrote head- lines, typed copy, identified and in- dexed indefinitely. Standing are Pritchard, Buffenbarger, Freels, Chreste, N. Coleman, Con- away, Yokel and P. Mann.

Campus politics continue, year after year, sparking the organiza- tions into campaigns and parades to elect the best in student gov- ernment. But this school year the students had an added thrill — a firsthand view of the national situation as Vice-President Richard Nixon and Mrs. Nixon stepped onto the front campus and spoke directly to the students. Approximately 2500 persons gathered around the platform as the i Vice-President discarded his prepared speech and spoke off the cuff , stating, The vote here is relatively small, but you are the leaders of the future. Therefore I would like to speak to you as future leaders. In closing Mr. Nixon added, Strength will bring us peace, but the secret weapon for peace is the people of the world. Former Congressman D. Bailey Merrill introduced Mr. Nixon, and introductions for Mrs. Nixon (Pat) were given by Senator William Jenner. Members of the newly formed young Republicans club sponsored the College visit, with students meeting the visitors at the airport, taking part in the parade around town and sitting on the speakers ' platform. Mr. and Mrs. Nixon responded warmly to the enthusiasm oUU} 6i44de4iti oa4ftficUcin Ui SQA election. of the crowd and extended their hands to everyone within reach. This was the first time that a President or Vice-President had ever appeared on the campus. In the late spring, organizations begin planning their own pa- rades and campaigns as candidates and slates are drawn up for the local campus election, SGA, the biggest, closest and toughest election of the year. Sororities, fraternities and other groups band together as pot- lucks, meetings, poster parties, campaign buttons and pictures are all planned as a part of the political strategy at EC. For several weeks before the big voting day, banners hang from the buildings and signs cover the tree trunks. V hen election day arrives, parades, bands, loud speakers and screaming, laughing students provide the ecstatic noises as each tries to outdo the other. Every vote counts, and students line up in the Union halls, wait- ing their turn at the polls. An important election — these votes de- termine the new officers of the Student Government association, governing body of the students.

Mr. Merrill Christmas was youngest dad present, Mr. Henry Lutterbach was oldest and Mr. James Foster came the farthest to attend the banquet. Mr. Lutter- bach was also named Dad-of-the-Year. May, the last month of the spring quarter — and of the academic year — is filled with activities, but two stand out as May Day celebration opens the EVENTS and graduation exercises draw the school year to a close. Honors crowd each other; mothers are the guests as one of them is named Mother-of-the-Year, the Best Professor is presented a plaque, scholastic awards are made, sororities and fraternities choose their best student, leaders are recognized . . . Honors Day is at hand. Crowning of the May Queen, the Maypole dance, AFROTC review, picnic lunch, fraternity open- houses, tea for the mothers, a baseball game be- tween male faculty members and female students ... all add up to a full day, topped off with a Little Symphony concert in the evening. Next the spotlight turns to the seniors . . . the time has come to don academic regalia and walk proudly across the horseshoe to accept those cov- eted degrees. Approximately 245 seniors will take part in this year ' s ceremonies, an increase of fifty over last year. This year, too, the Evansville College-Baptist Hospital School of Nursing will have its first gradu- ating class; 1 1 women are candidates for degrees. Senior week — they ' ll be busy.

The great moment for seniors comes as they take thei nurses will be capped in a fitting ceremony, re- hearsal time will mean practicing for their grand entrance and caps and gowns will have to be tried, fitted and admired. Invitations were sent out weeks before. Bishop William T. Watkins, bishop of Louisville district of the Methodist church, will be guest speaker for the baccalaureate service, scheduled for the Great Hall, with seniors ' parents and fami- lies specially invited. Faculty members, in cere- monial dress, will be on hand to pay their re- spects. The Big EVENT — Commencement — June 3. Bleachers, loud speakers, a special section for the graduating class and the platform are set up on the front campus, with the lighted Administration building in the background making a memorable setting. Speaking to the seniors as they make their final ap pearance at the College and get set for the future will be Dr. Rufus A. Putnam, superintendent of schools in Minneapolis and an alumnus of the College. It ' s their night — the seniors. Good luck . . . congratulations . . . best wishes . . . au revoirs . . . are heard on all sides, and through it all is woven music by the band.
