She is modest and refined, one of those personages whose pres- ence is felt wherever she may be. Agnes possesses those sterling qualities of accomplishing, in a thorough and efficient manner, all she undertakes. Miss Palm is leaving us with an A.

B., Ashdown, Alabama Alpha Xi Epsilon lSober, steadfast, and demure. This thoughtful young lady came to Valpo in the fall of ,18. Her heart and soul were in her work. Study lirst, a good time afterwardf, was always her motto. She has made many friends as well as a good reputation in English and Spanish. She is planning to teach school, and we are all sure of her suc- cess in her chosen profession. Thirty-three JOHN PIERCE, A. B. Valparaiso, Indiana.

Judy is studying engineering as well as science, and has the necessary brillianey to make a success in that kind of work. She is so sincere and jolly that one cannot help but like and admire her. A more democratic girl cannot be found. FRED L. DENDY, A. B., Boaz, Alabama President and Assistant Editor of A. B. and B. S. Member Southern Society Treasurer Y. M. C. A. This son of sunny Alabama brought the optimism of the South and a real sense of humor as gifts to Valpo. It was not long after he had arrived that he won his way to the hearts of all his fellow-students. Their appreciation of his ability was expressed in their electing him to various positions of honor. He has been president of his class each of his four years in college. When he is gone he will not be forgotten by his many friends.

Debating Team Mr. Van Sickle is a man of ideas, and he isn,t afraid to express them, either. How many times he has, by introducing an irrele- vant topic for discussion, saved us from hav- ing to say ii1 am unprepared . Debating is his favorite activity. He is not much of a society man, but when it comes to good, hard work you can depend on Van Sickle to do it. HENRY L. WELLS, A. B. Grayville, Illinois History A born American; a graduate of the Pub- lic H. S. of Crayville, 111.; a teacher of three years experience; a World War Veteran with the rank of First Sergeant; a Valpoite since 1915; a man who has lost much hair but few opportunities in making his way in the world. FREDERICK C. I-IEDEBOL, B. S., Valparaiso, Indiana Mr. Hedebol is a thorough student. Who can remember seeing him come to class un- prepared? He has a cheerful smile for everyone. We wish him success. Thiq ty-five Thirty-s'ioo TRESSA DEF IELD, A. 13., East Prairie, Missouri Sigma Theta Secretary Senior Class Tressa came to us from Missouri in her junior year.

One can always depend on her when a meeting is called or she is asked to assist in a school function. A more loyal, all ,rouncr, student cannot be found. What more can one ask of so faithful a girl? 2 W 5 r' x Ar 4.ij A CLASS HISTORY i: a THOMAS CARMICHAEL ,ISTORY has to deal with facts and events. It is the struggle of a people for higher life. The desire for higher life, has brought together, as by the four winds, from the four corners of the earth, this graduating class of l92l. The history of this illustrious class began at no definite time. Many of our number have suffered interruptions in their college life. During the great World War, Uncle Sam called and we responded, the boys to face 1 , the horrors of battle, the girls to minister, with tender hands, gentle voices, and Q , cheering smiles to those of us who were so unfortunate as to feel the touch of the Bochs, sting. Returned, to pick up the thread of knowledge, where we had dropped it, when weightier duties called, we found in our classes old friends and come rades, as well as many new ones. As was stated above, this Class had no definite beginning, yet it really hasnt been so long ago, but that we all have more or less tmostly morey vague memories of our Freshie? days: how our first few weeks were spent in be wilderment, at our new environment. The remainder of the first term was it required for us to find out that there were still a few things, in this world of knowledge, that would be important for us to know. The remainder of our llGreen Cap,, days was spent in toiling with Latin, algebra, zoology and : countless other as seemingly absurd, subjects, toiling only as souls can toil who i t are inspired by the fear of seeing that most hated of all letters lip, appear on g y: their credit cards. 'V As Sophomores, we still heard our landladies lamenting the outrageous electric light bills they were forced to meet. But, since these good ladies had extracted by persuasion or otherwise a goodly fee in U. S. currency, from our ; . none too ample bank accounts it was now up to us to see that we got value I received for said expended cash. How were we to accomplish this without burning the midnight bulb at study? During this period of our development, we sometimes heard faint rumors of a strange course, called Sagerology, ina dulged in mostly by the upper classmen. The traditions of this stage of our i Class History are somewhat vague and indefinite. But as time passed and seasons rolled away, the third era of our history api H proached. According to all records all the activities of the class were bril- :3 liant successes. ' The last epoch of our history was begun on the twenty-first of September, nineteen hundred twenty. It was during the early part of twenty-one that arrangements for the Class Annual, Class Motto, Class Pins, and Class Day exercises were made. Of course, there were many other minor details, for class meetings, dances, picnics, and the like, but since the historian was not officially informed concerning these things, it behooves him not to speak of til them. Thirty-seven We hope that the associatione-the rubbing of shouldersewith these noble instructors, who have seemed more like instructive parents, than grouchy pro- fessors, has ingrained into us some of the great and good things for which they stand in life. And now the end is drawing near. We would have these last few weeks prolonged, but WTime and tide waits for no man? We love our Dear Old Valpo, and all for which she stands. We, the members of the A. B. and B. S. class of nineteen hundred twenty-one do hereby pledge our fullest sup port in every possible way to the advancement and the achievement of the Greater Valparaiso University. , Valpo, with sadness in our hearts at the thought, prepared to make our mark in the world, we are leaving you. Each of us, perhaps, can never attain what seems to us now to be our goal. But, we can find contentment and joy in just being real men and real women whose highest aim is for the upbuilding of humanity. Filled with love and hope, we say iiFarewelY, to our Alma Mater. ThiTty-eight PROPHECY OF CLASS OF 1921 AGNES PALM HEN I had obtained my A. M. I went to France to perfect my French pronunciation. After having taught there in the second- ary schools for a few years I received a flattering offer to teach in the University of Paris. I immediately accepted it, and in the spring of 1931 Iarrived at the scene of my new work. The president took me through the institution and proudly showed me many ine ventions of Parisian students. Finally, he took me into a laboratory and shOWed me a small magical structure fitted with a powerful magnifying Iense. The machine was easily manipulated by an electric button. Then, with thought concentrated on an absent individual the operator could see through the lens the person in question in his daily activities. The marvelous invention made an appeal to me, and almost instantly I thought of my old class mates back in ,21. I was going to ask permission to use the machine and test its power by trying to locate some of my old friends when the president interrupte ed my thoughts and silent admiration by saying: 2We cannot claim the honor of this invention, I am sorry to say. An American is the inventor. My interest increased by leaps and bounds, and I asked who the wonderful man might be. Imagine my surprise when he mentioned the old familiar name of R. A. Tallcott who was dean of our department in Valparaiso Unie versity in 1921. I determined to locate my class mates if possible without further delay. The first that came to my mind was the girl with whom I had entered college, Gertrude Curran. As my thought centered on her a well furnished room in a New York apartment house presented itself and there sat Gertrude, now a matron contentedly listening to the prayer of her little one. As the scene changed a vast plain came into View, and it took several sec- onds for me to recognize that man in cow boy outfit. Soon, however, I real- ized that I was really looking at my old friend, Mr. Carmichael who was at that moment superintending a round-up on a cattle ranch in Texas. Next, I saw a man searching in the jungle of Africa for a new variety of plant of which little is known. It was Mr. Hedebol, the dear old instructor in botany whose interest in his subject had never waned. He was on his way to being classified among the greatest American biologists. As the wilds faded I found myself in a London Opera. Who should be the leading singer but our class secretary, Audrey Hutton. Her interest and painstaking work in her art had at last brought its just recompense and reward. Again the scene changed and I was gazing on The House of Representay tives at Washington. To my surprise the chief speaker seemed only to have transferred his platform from Thespian Hall to Congress. I saw in my mind,s eye our old friend, Mr. Van Sickle, as he was in the Formal Debate Class in the winter of 1920-21. His efforts then were being rewarded now. Thirty-m'ne Fred Dendy had at last mastered his difficulties in French Grammar, ine deed, to the extent that he was in government employ as an interpreter for immigrating Frenchmen. After Tressa DeField had taught for a few years she discovered that she had great possibilities in the dramatic line. As a result of her turning her at tention in that direction she was the star reader in a leading Chautauqua. An instant more and I was in Rome. Why was I there? Which of my friends could be in Italy, and in the capitol? A meeting of the recently ine stated presidentls cabinet glided into View and the face of Mr. Thomas met my gaze. Imagine: IITommie president of Italy! Our dear little Judy DuPuy had, after a long struggle with ill health, completed her course in engineering, and was enjoying a noteworthy career in the west. She was not alone. One of her old Valpo class mates was with her and together they were surveying the long path of life. Eleanor Kromshensky had made excellent use of her work in home econ- omies. She was a demonstrator, not only to large numbers of students in the high schools in her county, but to her own two brown eyed daughters as well. From this happy home scene I drifted into a large cathedral in the East. The edifice was over crowded with a listening multitude. Who could the ' minister be that possessed a personality that could hold such rapt attention of so great a body? A second glance and I recognized him as the president of our student council in 192021,:Jack Pierce. We were not mistaken in our judgments when we voted for him in that heated campaign because he had a winning personality. He helped to win the million dollars for Valpo then; now he was helping to win a million souls for Christ. Only one more, and I should have seen again all my old friends. Sure prise of surprises: I was standing in an operating room, and heard one sur- geon say: IIHe will live. I knew if Dr. Wells did it, even though it were so critical an operation, the patient could not help but pull through. Thus I had again seen all my class mates. I sat bewildered for a few minutes. Then I thanked the president of the University for having permitted me to use that wonderful machine, and begged to be excused from his presence. In the refuge of my own room I reflected on all I had seen. Not one of our thirteen graduates had failed to be a credit to us in the first decade after our commencement. Any of the faculty or our personal friends could be proud of all of us. Tears of pride and joy filled my eyes as I anticipated the future for the next ten years. Soon I fell asleep to relive what I had so recently seen. Forty FROM DUSK TO DAWN T. A. T. y OME gentle muse, h . t . Inspire me with worthy thoughts; For Fm rhymster Chosen, to sing the praises Of my Alma Mater. Now you setting sun, Bidding to the parting day A reluctant sad adieu, Forbodes the happy, yet unwelcome Day now pending, When we must bid farewell to old V. U. Now night is come, And all in darkness shrouds me, While in the lap of earth, My head I lay; Fearing to dream the thoughts that haunt mee ttWhose light will guide me on my lonely way? Darker, and still darker grows the night, Silence reigns without, But in my soul a storm 15 raging, through my hopes and fears. I see vandals, thieves, usurpers, Claimants of things and honors, That are not theirs, Boasting and vainegloriously Dragging a sacred lady to the dust, And still proclaiming Love and honor due to her. I fear, yea, I weep, And by a hypocrite am branded such, A coward, and a traitor, As he himself already is. Fowty-one But in the darkest moment, I see a light approaching. It is borne by a Vigorous youth, Whose demeanor betrays no fears, But radiates the brightness Of a great heart, And still a greater soul. He approaches the thief, And with one blow Sends the sullen scoundrel to the dust Wherein he sought to drag Our darling lady. They clash no more, The coward Hees. With tender hand, The Victor lifts the lady, Who in former years has cared for him. They rise, and hand in hand They walk, bearing the light Even higher than before. He, stalwart and brave, tenderly caresses, The woman who in turn, with motherhs pride Caresses him. While from behind, The faces of B. and K. I see, Nodding and smiling in acquiesence. It is morning, The visions have disappeared, And I with lighter heart, Go forth to break the news, To all the world. Forty-two J. C. BOSE, B. 0., Calcutta, India. 1Doctor Bose as he was known in the class room came to us from the far East. His speech on India in the public speaking class has been held as a memorial of u 065 first perfect speech in our language. Bose has proved himself to be one of the hardest working students in the department and we hope that he carries back to India with him the spirit of democracy as well as that of wisdom. ; SINNIA BILLUPS, B. 0., Stickney, South Dakota. Department Editor Alpha Xi Epislon. WThe poet says that the proper study of mankind is man but the best part of man is no-man. To verify the poets philoso- phy we would ask you if ever you have had the pleasure of sitting in the quiet class- room and listen to iiBillys, tender Voice well seasoned with the sweetness of her smile, that makes you feel all the mean things you have ever done. If you have not we suggest that you write to Stickney, South Dakota and ask her to come to your home town and entertain. LAWRENCE S. ELLIOTT, B. A., New Alexandria, Pennsylvania. Phi Delta Psi.

It is impossible to mention the numerous ac- tivities with which he has been connected. He came to us in 1916 and has been doing something for somebody ever since. A man with Dads, ability to make friends will gain honor and renown wherever he may be. We deeply regret this is his final year in our University. Here,s to nDad! Forty-thwee MILDRED JONES, B. 0., Brandon, Wisconsin. A proof that the class room is a real test on the quivering diaphragm was ex- pressed by Mildred when she returned from a two years lyceum experience and then appeared upon the class room platform with more fear and trembling than all her road experience had ever caused her. The class has been much benefited through Mil- dred,s practical arguments with her profes- sors. She is much interested in the work and we all wish her the heighth of success. REVERIE IN A PRACTICE-ROOM SINNIA BILLUPs n fa; NCE more unto the breach, dear friend, once more. I hear it I from the adjoining room. With it sounding in my ears I recall the arrival last fall of Fred Dendy who hails from the sunny South. Everyone was glad, to see him back, especially. Mr. TaIIcott. I recall also rehearsals for iiPeg 0, My Heart? and AIVie,s first attempt at being serious in taking the part of a lawyer. Also IIDaoFs decided dignity as the butler. At the iibreach, I sit up and take notice for I have a Vivid picture of the display of the harmless temper of the Billet Millups duo and the contrasting calmness of Katherine and MareIIa. I am further reminded of the productions of the play. I can very plainly see the Edison dog, the rope fire escape with twenty'six knots and the bent beefsteak. OrIin was very efficient as a manager, but then he always car ried off the honors. Didn,t he succeed in doing so at the impolite party which was held in our drawing room, class room and living room? My noisy neighbor is silent now and my fancy can wander into the office without being impeded. The ceiling has a peculiar artistic finish which is the result of the failure of gravitation. It appears that a certain professor who is not aware of his ability as an interior decorator is responsible for the collision between the contents of an ink bottle and the upper extremity of the room. Friends, Romans, countrymen -now I know my Visiting neighbor is Mr. Bose, for he is a great student of Shakespeare. IIFriendsheas I hear it now, its only connotation is our friendly family in this department. Emerson says of a friendeIIAll things through thee take nobler form. And so each of us feel better and have a broader oute look on the future for having been in this circle of friends. F arty- f GMT 271 'T e IN A WET COUNTRY DAD ELLIOTT ,. HERE was never more than one genius in each family, neither was there more than one prophet in a class and how fortunate we were to find that one without difhculty. A great many people misunderstand the science of soothsaying but to the prophet it is as simple as chemistry is to the chemist. To reveal a little bit of the secrecy of the science it is nothing more nor less than a peep behind the curtain on the stage of life. On my way home from a meeting last night I noticed in the window of the College Pharmacy an expensive Egyptian incense burner for sale. Knowing something about the exactness of the Egyptian prophets I decided, that my cense was the key to their success. So I bought the burner and went to a quiet room and filled the burner, inhaled and dreamed far into the future. As I passed into the world of mysticism I was carried high into the air in a large aeroplane which traveled in a northwesterly direction. Never before had I witnessed such a pleasant atmosphere and seen such lovely scenery. Suddenly the propeller of the plane stopped and I felt myself falling. When I awoke I saw bending over me a familiar face welcoming me with a cool cup of South Dakota water. The familiar face was no other than IIBilly Billups. She was president of the largest co-educational school in the coune try. After a short talk she invited me to lunch with her and her aged father who was one hundred and three. I then decided to Hy into the far East and try and locate our old classmate Bose. In a travelers guide which I purchased at a hotel in IIMars, I noticed the name of a familiar man. It was none other than Bishop Bose, Calcutta, India. So I thoughtVI would land there for dinner, but as that was the day ' for the performance of Iimiracles his attendants informed me that I could not see the Bishop until the next day. Being very anxious to see him I waited until the next morning when I was conducted to the chamber of my chum by four trained guards. I found him seated in a large chair, dressed in a scarlet robe with a golden crown upon his head. He addressed me in per feet English saying, iIGood morning, IiDadf, hows everything in Valpo. He then said, IIWelI you can see for yourself what I am doing? He then told me he was sorry but he had an engagement to lecture to five thousand Mohammedan monks that afternoon and would have to leave me. On returning to America I stopped at New York and went to the Hippoe drome and saw Mildred Jones acting the leading lady in the worlds greatest play, T. and M? Mildred said she could put her whole soul into this play because she loved both the men who wrote it. Just then Ray Adams entered my room and I told him about this wondera ful incense but he didnt believe it. I told him to sit down and see if it worked on him. I wanted him to tell my future. After inhaling of the my Forty-five cense he fell into a deep sleep and for hours he snorecl and dreamed on and on. Finally he awoke and meekly said to me: lDaclf I have perceived your future from the day you leave Valpo up to the time you are eighty years old. I saw you comfortably situated in your fme mansion in Oklahoma. You were active in every proceeding in town, ranking all the way from base ball umpire for the home town team, up to president of the greatest oil come pany in Oklahoma. Your wife, Cecelia, and her seventeen children were very happy. During the evenings you spent at home you would relate thrilling stories to the llkidsh about your college days at Valpo and the great speeches you made to vast audiences on every special occasion? gie ngmgas'ezd 4.301935 Forty-siw 9 DEAN GUERNESY J .

Er: A CONCERNING THE CLASS OF 1921 BRYCE M. ROWLAND -; INCE the founding of the University in 1873, the College of Education of Valparaiso University has stood firmly for the finer things of college life. Whether it be in the class room or out in the field of experience, the students of the educational depart- ment have without fail been loyal to their school. The College of Education has ever been fortunate in having a most excellent faculty. Their spirit has been of the true democratic quality. Sorry, indeed, was the class of I921, to learn that the erudite and versatile Dean, Dr. George W. Neethad severed relations with the University as an instructor. Many thousands of students have been influenced by the calm and firm man- ner of Dr. Neet. liA seer among seersf, Dr. N eet, our class joins in wishing you well. We are grateful for the many ways in which you have labored for us, have directed us, and made us more able to cope with the world at large. The class in Education, however, has many things to be thankful for, one of which is that Professor Ellis with unfailing energy is still with us. Seldom is he out of humor, but here is a warning, gentle students; do not provoke him. Surely, one has not gained the most from his college life in Valparaiso University unless he has at least made Professor Ellis, acquaintance. With the opening of the .fall term of 1920, each of us naturally wondered who our new Dean of Education would be. To be exact, the Dean himself had knowledge of his coming only thirtyasix hours before he was due here. Such in brief is the introduction of our present Dean of Education, Dr. Guernsey J. Borst. Dr. Borst has come into this University with an unusual amount of energy and enthusiasm. His ambition is to make the College of Education one of the leading colleges of the University. It is with no little amount of gratification; Dean Borst, that we praise you for the unswerving attitude you have taken toward your college and its seniors. Our gratitude cannot be commensurate with your spirit and hard work in our behalf. Now, in regard to the graduating class- We are Seven, four girls and three boys. Almost in pairs, and to be precise, one of our number, Mrs. Townes, has already taken up that romantic subject, called matrimony. Each member has played his or her part in the activities of the University. To attempt to say what each will do after leaving the University would be prophesying. A prophet I have never been proclaimed. As historian, I have only to record. Let it be said that, this history, if such it may be called, is a mere synopsis of the short but interesting life of the Educational Class. We have accomplished little in proportion to what we have yet to do. Our work has been more or less theory, but we have learned that Education does not alone consist of theory but rather is theory put into practice. Quot- ing the words of Dr. Neet, llEducation is self-development through selfv Fifty-one ,9 activity for selfehood and social service. We then cannot call ourselves educated unless we perform a social duty, through activity pursued in an intelligent manner. wTwo things make life worth while; one is to make a living, the other, is to make life worth living. If the records of the classes in education were consulted, one would find that approximately twenty-five thousand students have gone from Valparaiso University into the teaching profession. No nobler work is being done today. The College of Education has left and is leaving a memorial which needs no tablet, but instead, there will be a living memory of those who have through their preparation for social service made life more beautiful, more useful, and more abundant. May we never forget the teachings of our honored professors. We aspire to do things. We are hardly prepared to assume the grave tasks before us but thanks to the initiative which Valparaiso University gives to its students, We hope to fulfill our mission be that what it may. And now, a new era dawns upon us. We are leaving at the time when history is being made for a greater Valparaiso University. We hope that the class of 1922 will catch the spirit of doing and giving. Be hopeful, apply yourselves to doing great things. This in brief is the hope, and the ideals of the Class of 1921. Fiffy-lwo ttWE ARE SEVEN, LITHA BALLENGER UST Pause and listen as you pass, To the song I sing of our Senior Class. When I think of it I think of heaven, For ,tis the only word that rhymes with seven. Then my mind goes on till it reaches ten, For of course I must take the professors in. Our Dean comes first, a scholar rare, Who with others, all does well compare. There,s our dear Professor Ellis too Who will be remembered by you, As a man of smiles and kindly words As into Ethics he doth merge. Even if she doesnt come on time, Miss Christensen certainly belongs in this rhyme. Tho, often found Without her office key She is seldom seen away from Gillespie. Therefs Townes of homewloving fame, And Morse of idealistic aim. Golden,, haired Rowland With eyes of blue Who soon goes forth to dare and do. And Kromshinsky as a fair dietition, Van Buskirk doomed to be a politician. Archie Keene the last of the seven Whose voice it is that rings of heaven. Fi f ty- 1 hreu l lll' lira lli In it h! L HI f, CLASS PROPHECY ROSETTA TOWNEs . Y nervous fingers had finished adjusting the tassel of a new black cap and I, with my class mates of 21 were awaiting the music that should summon us to the stage, when a strange mist enveloped me and a voice low and distinct, whispered in my ear, IIEvery year for many generations one is chosen to take this magic key, unlock the door of the future and View the deeds of the army of enlightened, as the years go rolling by-Come. I was sore afraid and would have shrunk from the stupendous task but the key was in my hand; a mysterious force swept me forward and I was powere less to disobey. A huge door swung open when touched by the Magic Key and I was across its threshold. I fain would have paused in confusion at the panorama of years spread before me but, IINot here, not here, came the inexorable Voice, and I could do aught but obey its mandates. On I was borne until I stood before a great arch bearing the inscription MCMXXXV. IIComef, said the Voice, and enveloped in the mist of gray, I sped noiselessly over hills and dales, farms and cities, until I entered a magnificent building. As the enveloping mist cleared away I saw many men and women seated listening eagerly to some one speaking. The speakefs voice, oddly familiar, rose until I heard distinctly, The logical conclusion is, honorable colleagues, that this measure, while irksome to the few, wiIl result in the greatest good to humanity, ultimately, and for that reason must become a law of the great State of Nebraska, and I saw it was mine ancient enemy of the one P.

IIYes, said the Voice, as I was swished onward, he is just be ginning his third term in the state legislature; he is noted for his clearness of Vision, breadth of fellowship and depth of intellect? I had no time for indulgence in the reminiscent fit I felt coming over me for I was now in the largest assembly room I had ever seen and it was literally packed with women; every race and nationality seemed represented. IIThe Worlds Congress of Womankindf, volunteered the Voice and I thought it the voice of Humor. S,sh,,, and listening I heard, IIAnd be it further resolved that we, the In- ternational Congress of Women, now convened at The Hague Peace Builda ing, do indorse the views of the women of America as presented to us by Miss Kromshinsky-towit: That the highest stage of attainment for woman today is efficiency in wifehood and motherhood and for that reason the ultimate aim of every girls education should be such efficiencny-and much as I deg sired to hear more I was whisked on until I entered a strange land where lived a queer people with slanting, black eyes and yellow skin.

Respectfully yours, Archie Keene, Manager, Hong Kong, China. When I again became conscious of my surroundings I was gliding close above a beautiful city, veritably a consummation of my dreams of an ideal city. Streets according to sanitary regulations; at the western outskirts was a long string of tall buildings, well built and alongside ran railway tracks over which rumbled mighty trains. But it was unbelievableethere was not a whiff of smoke either to be seen or smelled! A park some three hundred feet wide extending the front length of this row of buildings, and Howers growing, I longed to stop for a nearer View of some wonderful looking dwellings sure rounded by lawns literally IIrunning over with children, but the unseen inHue ence hurried me on and through a building where I saw a door plate inscribed, Greeley Implement Co., Bryce Rowland, President. I saw no more for I was being rushed on and almost at once was skimmere . ing through corridors of what proved to be a municipal building. Unfamiliar names glittered in gold letters from office doors. Suddenly I was halted before the most imposing one Visible, and read, Beatrice Morse, Mayor. I was so overcome that I lost all ability to look further and when I regained a conscious stage, I was whirring rapidly through space until I hovered over a beautiful plat of ground, a miniatureEden, studded with magnificent buildings the like of which I had never before seen. As I pondered the meaning of it all, I caught a familiar bulk of brick and mortar-Altruria! IIYesf came the Voice which I had wholly forgotten. IIA great man,s Vision fulfilledeNew Valparaisoy, In answer to an unspoken desire I was permitted to soar east- ward over Monroe street, but it was so changed as to be wholly unfamiliar. Blocks beyond the Kinsey home stood a beautiful home in the center of a wide stretch of lawn.

So radiant and happy, she seemed not a day older than when we sat in class in ,21. IIHers the fulfillment of perfect womanhoodf, quoth the Voice. And then I felt the Key being drawn from my fingers.

Slipped Seventy-eight A STORY OF THE PHARMICS 0 write a history of the pharmacy class of '21 I find it very hard. ' Is it because we have made no history? Immediately the un- disputed answer comes, No! Is it because I do not dare to record the history we have made? Again the answer is echoed in no uncertain tones, No! Then it is because the hl'Se tory we have made has been made through our own efforts and unlike the great Caesar, who made history of his own and then was able to write it, we find ourselves lacking. But as this small portion of space has been desigy natecl to contain a record of some of the things we have caused to'happen and also some of the things that have happened over which we had no ruling hand I will try to leave it so occupied. As we dragged ourselves through rain and mud to register with our dee partment in the fall of ,19, I think there was a certain amount of gloom-within us all, but on the following Tuesday as we gathered in such large numbers at our first class and were greeted by the ever smiling face of our good dean, Prof. Wisner, a thrill went through us all and our hearts pattered out the code, which interpreted, read, It is good to be here. Having the largest class in several years we were proud of them. We had a right to be, we are still proud of them. A few have gone, not many, others have come to take their place and we have greeted them all with a welcome hand. As the cry has ever gone out from us, iiCome thou with us and we will do thee goods, eleven new members entered our ranks in the fall of ,20, and at the present time we stand a half hundred strong. From the four corners of the world we are represented and we have greeted them all. On changes in our faculty over which we had no governing hand we will not make comment. We love and revere them all. They have diligently taught us what we know. There is honor enough to go around. It will not do to write a history of the class of 21, without mentioning the very instructive as well as entertaining excursion we made to the Eli Lilly and Company, of Indianapolis. We spent two days at the capitol, and were entertained in a most royal manner by our host. This year we will make a similar trip to Detroit, as visitors of Parke Davis or Company. Too much thanks can not be awarded these companies for their expressed interest and confidence in us, in giving us this opportunity of observing pharmaceutical and chemical processes as they are carried on in the commercial world. We will not forget another very worthy feature of our instruction here, our botanical garden. We have been able to see some of the important vega etable drugs in their growing condition and have been taught by our able in- structors to cultivate and recognize them. We have numbers of times been the very fortunate audience of such men as W. L. Scoville, who is Vice chairman of the committee on revision of the National Formulary, and who was responsible for the publication of that Seventy-nine book of standards. We have considered ourselves very fortunate to have had men of this type as our guests. Never will we forget those glorious picnics we spent in the spring at the Sand Dunes, where we laid aside the worries of a whole year, and for a few hours elopecl with nature and rolled in the sand. And then again we have laid aside our mortars and scraped from the end of the grinding pestle the adhering powder, carefully storing them in their respective places, long enough to devote our attention to create a delightful weekeend. Mention need only be made and all will remember the dance the Pharmics gaye in the fall of 21. It is only one instance of where the Phar- macy class has gone its limit. We have been taught in dispensing medicine, be sure you are right and , then go ahead. Would it not be a good motto: llDo that, that you do, right? Dear old Valpo we are glad that we came. Eighty PROPHECY CHARLES C. GRAY T was at the golf tournament held at White Sulphur Springs, West Virginia, in the fall of 1930 that I met my old college chum, Earl 13. Rowan, who at that time held the worlds cham- pionship. It was my first occasion to meet any of my old class mates but had often wondered just what station in life the mema bers of that illustrious class of 1921 had reached. Slim said he heard from Farrell occasionally who was now manager of his fathers store at Clarks- burg, and that Mr. Voke had written about two months ago and was at that time considering selling his store in Rockford, Ohio, and going west to take up a claim. Later in the evening Slim produced from his private stock a brown bottle labeled RX. 1,1421. At first I hesitated, but Slim smiled and said it was made by the famous formula No. 34 which he had worked out in his Senior year at College. Almost immediately after drinking I fell into a sort of stupor becoming unconscious of the happenings near me. My mind drifted back to the days spent at Valpo. I could see the Old College building, Science Hall, the campus, Sagers Lake and all those dear familiar scenes. Suddenly they vanished and in their places I saw the new magnificent Val- paraiso University in all her glory. Above the dome of the large adminis- tration building floated a banner upon which was inscribed, uV. U., Where Theory Squares With Practice. In the Science Hall I saw Lewis instructing a class in Materia Medica. Professor Campbell was busily engaged in the research laboratory perfecting a device for removing nitrogen from the air. In the lecture room I heard Dunnay explaining the mysteries of organic chemistry to a large class of students. My curiosity was aroused to such an extent that I left Valparaiso in search of the members of the class of 1921. As I entered the Indiana Steel Cor- poration in Gary I met Grayheck, who had attained the position of business manager. He informed me that two other members of the class had been associated with the same concern for sometime. Bauer had recently been elected president of the corporation, having risen to that dignity from the po- sition of Laboratory Assistant, and Mahanna had for the past three years been in charge of the Chemical laboratories. Obrien met me on the street in Chicago and said he had just returned from a trip through the east where he had been successful in introducing a line of Borak Brosf Pharmaceuticals which had recently been put on the market. Near the heart of the city Frank De Silver was operating one of the most up to date drug stores in the loop. His large force of salespeople were con- stantly under the supervision of Geo. Teasdale, who on several occasions, during his College life displayed ability to direct and supervise. Teasdale Eighty-one informed me that Knight had a large drug store on the West side. I jouri neyecl there only to find Knight in a comfortable situation with Marie Durizzi as Mrs. Knight. They invited me to their home for supper and I spent an enjoyable evening with the Knight family. Bliza and Marczak were both employed in the large wholesale house of Domeika and Company. From Chicago I was guided westward. Peschel was comfortably situated on a small farm in Northern Minnesota, married and enjoying life. He had a small llfarmyatceuticalb lab where he had often experimented in view to dis- cover a preparation which would some day improve his voice and make him a great singer. Jacquet and Llewellyn had evidently decided that real red blooded Americans should lead an out door life full of adventure and were in charge of a large cattle ranch on the western plains. Near by George Moore had struck oil and was living a retired life. In Seattle I discovered Hughes, Kascht, Ganzer and Jellison. Ganzer and Jellison were employed by the Pacific Coast Chemical Importing Com- pany to find a new process of making loaded dice and solidified alcohol, and Hughes and Kascht were on the faculty of the Seattle College of Pharmacy. Kascht at this time was interviewing Ladd, the chief chemist of Packefs Tar Soap Company. My next stop was San Francisco where at the meeting of the American Pharmaceutical Association. Mrs. Thompson, Myer, Eicher and McDer- mott were deeply interested in a discussion ilWomenls Place in Pharmacy? being presented by Ruth Watson. In the state legislature of Texas, Fane Larner was putting forth a wonder ful plea for the removal of restriction on alcohol, which has for several years been a serious handicap to the pharmacist. Farther north, in Kansas, Miss Straus and Miss Weitzel were operating a partnership store which appeared to be one of the few up to date kinds in that section of the country. At Palm Beach, Sam Kalb had won distinction as a movie director. He had formed a company of his own, and the only difficulty he seemed to have was getting the pictures by the censor. Recently he worked out a formula which would cover the parts of the films likely to be discriminated when pre- sented before the board of censors. Van, his leading actress had just returned from a short vacation abroad where she had gone to rest before ap- pearing in Sam,s leading production, The Art of Perculationf, At the American Chemical and Dye Works in Jaxonville, Buersch and Crouse were busily engaged making dyes by Bill,s latest patented process which had created a great demand in all countries of the world. I took a trip north on the Clyde Line and went to the address of Louis Smolensky who was married shortly after leaving Valpo, and he and his former classmate, Miss Theobold were comfortably situated at Orange, N. J. Eighty-two where he was chief chemist in the Radium extracting plant. I took the Huda son and Manhattan tubes to New York City where I saw Coff, who was employed in one of the large Liggett stores as representative salesmanager. From him I learned that Loo had returned to his native country and was ina structor in one of its largest universities, and that Guavarra was in the Philip- pines in charge of a large sugar refinery. I found the remaining members of the class of 1921 at the U. S. P. con- vention in Washington, D. C. John Sievers being Vice president of the con- vention, as representative of the V. U. Ph. A., with Johnston acting secretary. Johnson introduced me to his wife, a former Valpo student. Nelson was on the revision committee and Porter was a delegate representing the University of Virginia College Pharmacy. He presented me to many of the lady deli egates. e Now that I had obtained the desired information which I had so long been seeking I was satisfied and as I regained sensibility I could not help but admire Slim for specializing in that particular branch of pharmacy which he did.

N ine ty- three CLASS OF 1921 HERMAN GINSBERG x. -'- 1F thee, Jerusalem, I forget, Skill part from my right hand. My tongue to my mouth,s roof let Cleave, If I do thee forget, Jerusalem, and thee above My chief joy do not set.,, No greater oath has eler been set, By man or nation, old or new. Our college days well ne,er forget; The days in which we learned and grew. To say, llOlol Valpo, you,re ever with me,,' Is but saying naught at all, If your words are said care-free Of thoughts of our College Halls. And Classmates all from here and there thve been with us for four bright years, Smile yet whene,er the pin we wear, The friends of friends are Engineers. Service our motto and truth our choice; Are qualities we always voice. In past, present and future years, Such thoughts are with the Engineers. To serve the world, to do what,s just! What care we for the gilded lust! When right is seen; the road,s made clear By every Valpo Engineer? We always set a goal, thats true, But seeking ever something new! Something better, safe and clear, Is sought by every Engineer. And as the years go rolling by, And silver threads blend golden rays, Memories then will bring forth a cry Of joyous thoughts, of College Days! N inety- f om CLASS PROPHECY THEODORE MIDJAS FTER a strenuous days work in the office, in the spring of 1935, . my thoughts reverted back to old classmates that I had known in Valpo. I decided to have a short vacation, the Hrst I had had the opportunity of taking for a long time, and go to Denver. I dug around my bachelor apartment and hurriedly packed a few things. Then I ran down to the station and purchased a ticket to Denver. I stopped at Chicago for a day and went to the Morrison Hotel. I had just put my name in the hotel register when who should I see walking towards me, but my old classmate, Mathew Krag. Mathew has an engin- eering office in the Monadnock building and has the enviable reputation of being one of the foremost consulting engineers of the west. In political circles it is rumored that he will be Chicagds next city engineer. In his practice he has kept in close contact with many of our classmates and it was from him that I learned of their accomplishments. ttAnd have you heard the latest? Mathew put in. Why no? I answered, What is it?,, IIRead this, he said, and gave me the Chicago News. Across the face of the first page was the headline in large black type, IICaIifornia Leads the World in Engineering. I read further and found that Herman Ginsberg, the IIpoet engineer? as we called him, had just pera fected and completed plans for a combined rail and water system for Cali- fornia. This plan distributes the traffic throughout the state and terminates at the various harbors and sea ports; a system which places California as foremost amongst the states of the Union. We had always predicted to hear of great things from Herman and our predictions came true. And do you know, Krag went on, ISpike Payne lives in New York City. He is now on the Board of Directors of the American Society of Civil Engineers and is considered an authority on railway engineering. He is author of a number of books on elevated railways. ISpike, had mare ried while at Valpo and to show his love for his old Alma Mater, he has sent ISpikeK Jim, to study Engineering at the new Engineering School at Valv paraiso. II iCharc, Langevin, it seems, did not find engineering as much to his liking as athletics. He is now the manager of the New York Giants and expects to put out a pennant winning aggregation in I936. He is still single, and made a resolution on New Years day to remain So, for at least another year. IGuy, Vaughn has been a Highway Engineer in Nebraska. He has just been made Chief Engineer and expects to give Nebraska the best highway system in the country. He has already built some of the finest roads in the West. ,, I said goodbye to Krag and left for Denver. While waiting for a train at Omaha, I took a stroll down the main thoroughfare. A large sign at N ine ty- fiv e one of the buildings attracted my attention and I walked up to read it. There, in large gilt letters was the firm name of iiForrester 8t Maltezos? I rememe bered my classmates iiJaspern and itSteveh and was glad to have the oppor- tunity of seeing them. I walked into the office and found itSteveh bending over a drawing table checking up plans for an irrigation project. It developed later that Jasper and iiSteve,, were making great strides in the engineering field and had already installed a number of large irrigation systems in Texas. I asked about some of our 21 graduates and iiSteve,, informed me that iiTommy Morse is City Engineer of Boston and has already completed de tails for the installation of a new waterworks system. This system includes the application of a new theory in water purification, of which WTommy is the sponsor. Arriving at Denver, I found time passing slowly and picked up the International Engineer, a maga- zine describing the engineering developments of South America. In looking through it, I came across an article by Alberto Saenz, giving somewhat in detail the construction of a large modern concrete dam in Columbia, 5. A. Saenz is Chief Engineer at Columbia and is constructing some very fine structures. The very next article was written by our old friend, Phillip Ginsberg. Phil,, is directing the construction of a complete railway system through Brazil and has made great strides in that field of work. He will soon return to the states to resume his work on the Interstate Commerce Commission. N 'ine ly-six HISTORY OF THE ENGINEERING CLASS OF 1921 GUY ORIEN VAUGHN 0 many, a history is merely a record of the past written in chrone ological order. To those who have helped to make that history, it is all this and more. Their pleasures, pains, hopes, fears, aspirations and ambitions have been woven into it, but these hu- man emotions cannot be written into its pages. So, in writing a history of the Class Of Nineteen Hundred Twenty One, I can hope to give only the events as they happened, leaving each one to live again his own in- dividual part. From the East, from the West, from the North, and from the South, we cameesome of us fresh from high school, others not quite so fresh eto this great democratic University, with the unconquerable ambition of becoming great engineers. After unrolling our roll of the famous long green we were permitted to enroll as Civil Engineering students with Dean Yeoman. Then came the joy Oi of ATS early morningr iiTrig classes and those hungry periods just before noon when we were privileged to listen to that most worthy man, Daddy Dido, Timmons, lecture on Chemistry. The ime portant event of our first term was the ilpolitical election of an Engineer as President of the University Freshman Class. This first term also witnessed the resignation of Dean Yeoman and the appointment of Dean Frank R. Theroux, a former Valpo graduate, who has most ably filled this place and who has endeared himsellc to us all by his counsel and advice. We rounded out our Freshman year by taking Plane Surveying, that sub ject from which we all emerge fullefledgecl Engineers ready to conquer or be conquered. How many of us gambled away our desserts for the privilege of carrying the iiguns,, past Altruria. Those who remained for the summer term of I918 indulged in those noted sciences, Bacteriology, Astronomy, Sagerology, Cemetery Science, Advanced Sidewalk, Moonology and may others too numerous to mention. But all this could not last for many of the students were answering Uncle Sam,s daily call to arms and most of us had left school before the end of the term. The fall term of our Sophomore year was broken up by the S. A. T. C., many of our boys being in this branch of the service. After the signing of the armistice, those who had answered the call to service gradually drifted back to school and by the end of the spring term most all of us were in school again. Our Junior year was filled with much hard study and little time for recre- ation, our principal subjects being Graphic Statics, Calculus, Railroad En- gineering, Higher Surveying and many other lighter subjects of minor im- portance. Prof. Charles Carroll Brown, former City Engineer of Indiana apolis, had been added to the faculty and he helped us through some of these diHicult subjects. N ine ty-sev en September 1920 found us all back for our Senior Year earnestly desirous of putting forth every effort to get our degrees and make this our record year. We have worked hard but have found time, as usual, to take part in all of the school activities and many social events as well. And now we are ready to enter upon our chosen life,s work. At last we are Graduate Engineers, and whatever the future holds in store for us, we are ready and willing to go forth and try to conquer there as we have conquered here. ---: ' x-': MISS EMMA LOUISE SAMUELS Dean of the School of Home Economics BEATRICE MORSE, B.

One hundred fowr HISTORY N ORMA WERNER N the Fall of 1919 we girls started on a journey, in a very large l steamer, ilCollege Education, on the sea of life. One day there could be seen in the far distance a beautiful island. We sailed, and sailed, sometimes thinking that to reach this land of dreams was an impossibility, but our pilot guided us successfully on, until at last we reached the island of College tValparaisol. We anchored our ship here and set forth on this beautiful island. The first year U920i there were about twenty members in our crew. The land was strange and new. When we would lose our way in the thick ambush the guides of this island tour instructorsl always put us in the right path. We bravely worked on, enjoying the sunshine tdancing partiesl and fearing the storms texamsl. Our second year was darkened by a very black cloud. The wind blew and the rain fell heavily, forcing us to stay inside the ship. Everyone had the sad thought tthis being our last year togetherl. Those long days passed drearily and we have worked together happily ever since, forgetting the time of part- mg. We have served endless numbers of clear guests on this island. Here was founded the famous H. E. C. Club. The annual food exhibit was held in the cooking room on December 8, 1920. All during the F all term of 1920 girls served noon luncheons. The Dean, fearing it would lead up to a matrimonial bureau, decided not to give Institu- tional Cookery the Winter term. While we have had many good times, we have worked earnestly to obtain all the treasures of this island. We have now discovered that in the distance there are still more beautiful lands to be reached. We are very happy iny deed to begin the journey of adventure. Some of our crew are missing and there are new ones in their places. Our most fervent hope is that at the end of our journey we shall meet again and once more see the faces of those we love. One hundred five PROPHECY MARIE STOKES $319 IVE years had passed since I left college thinking I had acquired jgj Ltggyii all there was to know about Home Economics. During that time I had been rushing around, Gust as I used to do at Valpol going from county to county in Georgia teaching mothers how to care for their babies, organizing girls canning clubs, sewing clubs, cooking classes. I also demonstrated hidden values and possibilities of the pressure cooker, tireless cooker, electric washing machine and numerous other labor-saving devices. One day to my utter astonishment I received a telegram from the Piedmont Hospital in San Francisco saying that I was to report at once to assume the position of head dietition in that hospital. When I arrived I was told that the head nurse would take me in charge. Soon I saw someone coming down the hall towards me. I immediately be gan searching my mind, for that figure and face looked strangely familiar. As the person neared, light began to dawn on me. Who do you suppose it was? That smile could not be mistaken, it was none other than that of our own Emma Louise Samuel. llWhy Miss Samuelefive yearsleBack in Vale paraiso! Well did you ever see such a coincidence.,, llAnd Miss Samuel, do you recall the good old days back in Valpo, and your class of ITen, who thought that they could go out and impart to the whole universe the wonders of the domestic artsy, IIYesf, she said, IIthose were happy days when we were all together. I shall never forget how we always gave the boys the largest pieces of pie and the best serving of all we had. IICan you tell me about any of the girls? IIOf course I can,,, she said. I hear from them at least twice a year. You remember our dear little Pearle Miller? Well she is over in China doing missionary work. Think of that, when she vowed that she was going to teach Chemistry and cooking in high school. I just hope they don,t bite her ears off. Therels Jennie Miner. Wait until you hear about her success. Why so busy was she dreaming and hoping for a Ladies Shop of her own that I had to constantly call her back to earth with a suggestion that I smelled some thing burning in the oVen. She now has her own Ladies Shop with a fronting on Michigan Avenue in Chicago. How is that for success? IIOh, yes, I must tell you of Leta Haden. I simply don,t know how it came about, but you remember how she was given to doting on millinery. She climbed until she is now head milliner in one of the fashionable stores on Fifth Avenue, New York. Can you imagine that? IIYes I hear of Elsie tOOegood natured faithful Elsie. She taught just two years out in Colorado then decided that teaching in numbers was terribly wearing on ones nerves; so she conjured her number down to one. Who do you suppose that lone, was?

Her hus- bands engineering work carried them there two years ago. ill have recently had a letter from Hazel Gallup. You know how we always said that she set the pace for the rest of the class to gallop to. My! how she always put things over. True to her word, she is still con- scientiously teaching. And its wonderful how she has risen in her profession. She is at present Dean of the Home Economics department in one of the colleges in Montana. I knew it was in her and that she could do it, but can you picture her with that much dignity? I judge, however, from reading between the lines that she will not follow this much longer. llLet,s see, yes there,s Hilda Mary. What of her do you say? She also reached her fondest aspirations. You recall how we were inclined to smile at each other, and how amusing it was to hear her rave over wanting to live in a large city, preferably Chicago, and work in a big store. She has sea cured a position at Marshal Fields as demonstrator of cleaning utensils. IlJust the other day I had one of the biggest surprises of my life. It came through a patient of mine who is a prominent man of St. Louis. In some way he learned that I had at one time taught at Valparaiso. He immediately told me that there was a young lady, Miss Werner, from that school, who had been and was still doing some of the most wonderful settlement work that had ever been done in that city. She is still lMiss, Werner. Who would have thought it. 111 never forget those pies that girl could make. It makes me hungry even now. Poor Jud, what must have been his fate? Who of us but thought she would long ago have been a Lady of Boston? It seems to me there was some one else in that class. To be sure, Kath- leen Hodges. I nursed her through a case of hysterics two years ago. You know she always was lailin, ,. She never taught as she said, but traveled quite a lot, and finally married a wealthy fruit-grower in Florida. I think they are doing quite well? Then as we finished our discussion of the last member of our class the bell rang for the head nurse, and our reminiscence of byygone days came to a close.

MCDANIELS W EAN BOWMAN, whose word is law, calls us hangvovers , and says he thinks there must be at least one of us from about every Class he ever taught. Starting as Freshmen in a good many dife ferent years, nearly every member of the class found some call stronger than the call of his classmates, and remitted until later years the pursuit of legal principles. Some broke away to follow the howling dogs of war, some to study other branches of learning. Some of us even hail back to those olden days when Law was a tw0ayear course, and we were wont to straggle sleepily into class at something after seven a. m., whistling, Its nice to get up in the Morning, and then find ourselves five minutes later wide awake and keenly struggling our way through the mazes of Common Law Pleading. But in September, 1919, we all came back, thus proving the steadfastness of our choice of our profession, and declaring our intentions to fight it out on these lines if it takes forever. In spite of inferiority of numbers, we captured the presidency of the de partment at the outset, and have kept it through both years. We have had our share of class frays, although none of us have been subjected to indict ment-but have battled shoulder to shoulder through many trials. We feel sure we have been of material aid to our teachers in improving the methods of instruction, and expect to find a comment of this nature on our diplomas. We early learned the lesson of the lawyer who was reading to the court from the established law, when the judge leaned benignantly over the bench, and said, But Mr. B , that isn,t the law? To which the learned counsel replied, Fm aware that it isnt, your Honor, but it was a minute ago, until Your Honor spoke. This learning became useful later, for when an instructor listening to our report of a case suddenly broke in to inform us that we were misstating the law, we could always reply, Oh, no, that was argued by counsel, but that isnit the law of the case: and then proceed to expound the opposite theory. And now we have wandered through the intricacies of Contract and Tort, and can see the light through Blackstone, Cole and Coke. We know that the plea of Wson assault demesne,, means iWHe hit me first, and that there are instances where it pays in the wind-up to buy a Worthless partnership ac- count Ever since the mantle of the Senior Class of 1920 was conferred upon us, we have sought to live up to the weighty responsibilities that it implies, and to set a worthy example for our younger friends less learned in the devious labyrinths of the law. We leave the hallowed halls of our Alma Mater with high hopes, and a grim determination to make her proud by writing achieveg ments as high as the ideals which she has taught us. One hundred fifteen CLASS PROPHECY JOE PEYTON BERBLING club for a quiet evening. It was in the year of 1930 and as I sat in front of a great warm fireplace, the Hames leaping and crackling, I began to wonder what had become of the law class of ,21. Sitting there I fell into a deep reverie. My mind travelled back to the years when I was in Valparaiso studying law and to the many happy moments I had spent there, the many true friends I had found. What had been the prowess and fortune of those men with whom I had shared happoness and sorrows, with whom I had toiled for the coveted LL. 13.? And sitting there it seemed as though the blazing, crackling fire was whis- pering to me. I listened closely. The words were unintelligible at first but after a while I could get the gist of what the fire was saying. Then the words came clearly. e iIRoy Williams, known in Valpo as the senator from Minnesota, has gained that pinnacle. He is now serving his second term as the U. S. sene ator from the great state of Minnesota. After practicing law for a few years he found that his greatest work lay in a political career. The people of Minnesota are firm in their belief that he is one of the greatest men that the country has ever produced. IiWalter Walsh, genial, happngo-lucky Walter, is now one of the brilliant stars on the forensic horizon of the Southwest. Leaving school, Walter went to the oil fields to make his way in the world. His keen knowledge of the law, coupled with his personality, soon made for him a reputation and he is now reckoned as one of the greatest lawyers of that section. He is happily married and there is a toddling Walter, Jr., who promises to be a Violin Virtuoso. IiTim Kiely, the man from Montana, steadfast and loyal, is back in his home state. After leaving Valpo, Tim toured the country for a likely place to practice. After looking over several states he came to the conclusion that Montana offered the best opportunities for him after all. And how good has his judgment proved! Beginning in a humble law office, a young law- yer, unknown and untried, he began his work with small cases. But finally his chance came and he was retained as counsel for the defense in what after- wards came to be known as the greatest murder trial in the state. His won- derful oratory and his keen knowledge of the law displayed at that trial soon made his name illustrious and now he is known as the foremost criminal law- yer of his state. . IICeorge Barr, our politician of school, has not forsaken his early training. George left the university and engaged in the practice of law. This he did so well that some of his friends persuaded him to enter political life. He has climbed steadily up the ladder of fame and at present is much talked of as One hundred sixteen the most likely man for the office of governor of the state of Ohio. His po- litical life has been blameless and filled with and governed by high ideals. Wayne McDaniels, one of the bulwarks of the class, has also contributed his work to the world. He is a supreme court justice of his state and is the author of the almost universally used McDaniels System of Land Registra- tion. He is the author of two learned books on Property, and his opinions and decisions in that branch of the law are quoted as almost final. uLouis Blomquist, one of our solid citizens, has returned to his native heath. He found that his greatest gift was in corporation law and now he is the counsel for several of the greatest companies in Michigan. He has the unusual distinction of having never lost a case and his reputation as a great legal adviser and advocate has travelled from coast to coast. nArvo Mandelin, who hails from Canada, has forsaken the general pracV tice of law and is specializing in real property. After leaving Valparaiso, he went into the Canadian agricultural belt and made for himself a comfortable fortune. Careful investments and his keen and encompassing knowledge of the law have made him one of the most sought attorneys as well as one of the largest land holders of Canada? I awoke from my reverie to find that the fire was still singing and whisper ing to itself, but for me it had no further message. It had told me where my former classmates had gone; what they had accomplished; how they had builded upon the strong foundation laid at Valparaiso University. Their names and their works had waxed illustrious.

One hundred twenty-one HISTORY OF THE SCHOOL OF COMMERCE M. G. HUMPHREY N the F all of 1919 dire need of a change in the Commercial De- partment of the University was imminent, due to two main factors: first, Prof. C. W. Benton, who had handled the Commercial work for twentyvhve years, was swept on with the commercial wave into a more lucrative business than teaching; and second, this great development of commercialism in the United States was demanding a broader training for commercial students. Prof. Benton, who had faithfully and efficiently performed his duties, had established a wide reputation for the character of the work in his department. He had laid a firm foundation for the present School of Commerce. Prestige for Valpo was being lost, however, because advanced subjects in Commercial work were not being offered. Prof. W. O. Winkler, who has been made Dean of the School of Com- merce, was selected to fill the vacancy left by Prof. Benton, the latter being engaged now in banking work in this city. Prof. Winkler saw the crying need of more extensive opportunities for Commercial students, and along with the general change in administration of the University, he organized the School of Commerce. We now find two loyal, progressive, and efficient instructors in this school who had formerly assisted so faithfully for more than twentydflve years under the old regime. Prof. Agar, with his broad knowledge obtained through constant study and through experience in practice of his profession, holds his classes in Law to strenuous efforts to master the subject. Careful preparation, close adherence to the work at hand, and clearacut, concise, and accurate explanations well ila lustrated with interesting and current examples, coupled with a versatile per- sonality and a world of patience, form the pillar of his success and lasting iny Huence. One is not less pleased with the work of the artist, Prof. Hoffman. Not only is he master of the art of penmanship, but he is master of the art of teach ing, being able to inspire and instruct his students through his perfect use of' language as well as thrBugh his ability to execute that which he wishes his stue dents to acquire. It is one thing to show what is to be done, another to explain how to do it. He has the gift and ability to do both. As I said before, these masters are still sacrificing in the School of Com- merce which was organized and which is being further developed by Dean Winkler. In adition to the Stenographic, Bookkeeping, Penmanship, and Law courses formerly offered, Higher Accountancy and Auditing, Salesman- ship and Advertising, Business Administration, Economics, and Commerce courses are now in the curriculum. Dean Winkler has not only met the requirements demanded by other Uni- One hundred twenty-two versities in their commercial work in introducing a full curriculum in advanced commercial work, but he has gone a step further in making the work of the school practical. This school year thirty of his Salesmanship students spent two weeks during the holiday rush at Marshall Fields store in Chicago. Some spent much besides the two weeks while in Chicago; we know, at least, that all spent energy or Mrs. Ried, head of the educational work of the store, would not have made such a glowing report of the work of these students while talking to our student body at Chapel. The Accounting and Auditing work which now prepares students for the Certified Public Accountants examination is perhaps the most thorough course offered in the school. Good reports come daily from those who have come pletecl this course and have entered the accounting field. We have felt that this work should receive further mention in this book. In accordance with the work undertaken by other Universities, and in Me cordance with the spirit of the SmitheHughes law, we find that Valparaisds School of Commerce is not lacking in its cooperation in bringing education to those in business and who are unable to come to the University. Two avenues of approach have been opened up: one by the Dean going personally into a community, such as Gary, and bringing an organized class real instruction in , business subjects; the other, through his personal attention to correspondence work. As the work of the school is becoming so voluminous, and as new courses are constantly being offered, we have the promise of two new instructors for the coming year. Then we shall find that many who now aspire to attain the B. C. 5. degree will stay another year to complete a more extensive course and attain the degree of Bachelor of Science in Commerce, or even another year to be called a Bachelor of Business Administration.

HUMPHREY HE youngest profession and the least crowded is that of Account ing. The extensive development of business in the last few years has made accounting and auditing essential. All the states have legislated to set forth the requirements of a public accountant, who must comply therewith, and who then must appear before an examining board to show his knowledge and ability in his chosen line. This places the Accounting profession on a par with that of Medicine or Law. Some of this yeafs aspirants for the Certified Public Accountanfs degree, issued only by the State after the candidate has successfully passed the we amination, are not seeking the Bachelor of Commercial Science degree from this school, but rather hope to get at once into accounting work. The thoroughness of this course offered by the School of Commerce is well shown in the following reports from former students: Koehler passed the C. P. A. examination and is now working with a firm of Certified Public Accountants in Cleveland. He recently refused a $3,000 position as an income tax expert. Redford, equally capable, is connected with five accounting firms of New York, his duties requiring him to work in varia ous parts of our country as a senior accountant. Recently he reported the completion of an audit which took him to the Rocky Mountains. In our own University office we have Robbins as an auditor. Gensman is working for the Valparaiso Lighting COmpany. Auck and Black hold posi- tions with accounting firms in Chicago. Kamprath is teaching commercial work in St. Paul. Parr is connected with a C.

One hundred twenty-seven VALPARAISO UNIVERSITY CHAMBER OF COMMERCE 53.:N St. Patricks Day, March 17, 1921, a number of Commercial students met in West Commercial Hall, and under the direction of the Dean of the School of Commerce they organized a Cham- ber of Commerce for Valparaiso University. Such an organizae tion is not as green as the date of formation might indicate, even though only one other University in the United States has formed such a society. The worthy purposes for which it stands will make it one of the fore- most organizations in any university in our northern states. The Chamber of Commerce has undertaken the laudable purposes of pro- moting interest in the School of Commerce, increasing the number of students in all departments, advertising our Alma Mater, providing a loan fund for students who would be unable to finish school otherwise, to institute an em- ployment bureau of the University, to keep students and alumni in touch with each other, and to keep the School of Commerce in touch with the business world. A Board of Directors was appointed to work out a permanent organizai tion. The temporary organization now stands: Sponsors: Publicity Committee: Dean W. O. Winkler J. D. Ellis Prof. R. B. Hobbs O. F.

Mrs. Lindquist, who will be remembered as the Dorliska Crampton of concert fame, says she may be persuaded to return to the stage now that Junior is old enough to travel with her. Miss Bertie Boucher, a leader in mus- ical Circles in her home city of Butte, Idaho, Visited a few clays with Chicago musicians while on her way to New York to book a series of conderts for Butte. She made the trip in her B-4 biplane. During the illness of Ossavich, of the new Isis theatre, Mrs. Tama Lyke Chevrie, 0f Valparaiso, Indiana, was secured as substitute, and it is said that her per- formance on the piano rivaled that of the master himself. The Aolean management announces that it is booking Caroline Cumbee, the new lyric soprano, whose southern songs are attracting so much attention, for a tour of the Central West. www- Miss Grace Dilworth and Miss Lillian Beemish, who conduct a modern music school for children at 547 N.

One hunched thirty-five MUSIC CLASS HISTORY -:- T was a beautiful day in September that a motley array of stu- dents burst open the doors of the Music Conservatory of Val: paraiso University. Who by this description would ever rec- ognize the dignified Seniors of the Class of l9Zl of the Music Conservatory .3 But as we look back to this first year, we recall not only the fun but the great experiences of finding ourselves a part of a growing institution. How proud we were as the year rolled by, to realize in ourselves a strong organized spirit. How we labored over the piano trying to play or sing like some of the artists of note that our professors were able to bring before us from time to time as an inspiration for the heighth that we were to attain. By the end of the year we were really a part of the life of Valparaiso, some of our nume ber, just Freshmen, going so far as to entertain the upper-classmen in many a Chapel exercise! The fall of l9l9 saw us again entering the halls of the Conservatory, not a disorderly band, but a set of Juniors determined to delve deeper into the Laws of Harmony, Counterpoint, etc. It was during this Junior year that we really began to study, as our glances now were cast forward toward gradue ation and no one could afford to waste time or effort. The fall of 1920 saw eleven of the number Seniors. Ah! only one more year. Ima Heyler; Caroline Cumbee, our girl from the Southland; Ethel Jackson; Alice Moore, coming to us in the fall from a college in Missouri; Bertie Boucher; Grace Dilworth, and Dore Crampton were busy practicing their Methods of Public School Music on the children of the City Schools of' Valparaiso. Any time of the day, as one entered the Music Conservatory, one would hear one or all of these girls singing lldo ti lilah iisoh at the top of their lungs. Or, if one,s ears were acute, one would detect Tama Chevrie soaring to the heavens on the high llC and llAA . Many hours a day this same listener could hear the scales, conscientiously run up and down the piano by Erna Scaer, Lillian Beemish, and Irene Stacey, who were striving for certifie cates in the art of lltickling the ivories,,. , Through perseverance we conquerf is truly a great and inspiring motto for any student to have, and the Music Class of 1921 will live up to it. Now we appeal to the Board of Trustees for our Papers of Freedom,,, and from henceforth do solemnly swear allegiance to our beautiful and growing Val- paraiso University and especially the Conservatory of Music. In every social gathering in which the University participates the Music Conservatory is invariably called upon to render unequaled services along the line of entertainment. The opening of the F all term of 1920 found the faculty all in readiness for the year,s work, with the exception of Mr. Roberts, who had accepted a position with the Sherwood Music School. He was replaced by the very able One hundred thirty-siac and versatile Prof. Carlson, who came to us with high recommendations as to his ability as a vocal teacher and a leader of glee clubs. This year the Music Conservatory has attained untrammeled success in all of its branches. Student recitals have been given from time to time and at every concert hidden talent has been discoverede-we have our Pattfs and our Elmanis. Also, through the untiring efforts of our professors, the whole Uni- versity has been entertained by artists of note in the music world, whose solemn strains have furnished ambitious students with sufiicient inspiration for future success. The expansion of the Music Conservatory has been keenly noted by experts in the music world, and the eyes of successful musicians have been turned toward Valpds hidden expression and talent which, through the Conservatory, it has been able to bring out of ingenuous students.

Only this year Valparaiso University affiliated with Hahne- mann Medical School of Chicago, which brought a large number of PreeMede ical students to Valparaiso University. , The iipre-Medics is one of the peppiest departments of the University. By winning the interdepartmental basketball tournament they won for themselves the recognition of all other departments as being good sports. The Senior Class this year is small, but we feel sure in saying that next year the Senior Class will be one of the largest and strongest departments of the University. Until this year. no dean was at the head of the PrevMedical Department, but since the aHiliation with Hahnemann Medical School, Professor M. L. Weems has been appointed permanent Dean of the Pre-Medics. Through his untiring efforts he has raised an unknown department to the front of the University with the other departments. We, the Senior Class of 1921, wish the Faculty and Class of 1922 the greatest success. One hundred forly-unc OUR ARTISTIC F UTURE F. E. C. ' NE Friday morning I decided to have a quiet hour of sketching all i. to myself in the Art Room. When I entered the room, the Mother of Sorrows greeted me with her same sweet smile, and Venus de Milo stood untiringly on duty. The Dying Gaul was still dying, but it didn,t seem to disturb me, and I never once thought of the skeleton in the closet. For some time I worked at my easel, but the room was warm and so quiet that I soon grew drowsy. I relaxed from my work for a time and gazed idly over the room. My attention finally centered upon a striking picture advertisement in an open magazine. After examining it I found the signature of N. H. Morris. Where had I heard that name before? Yes, he was a member of the Art Class in Valparaiso in 1921. That was twenty years ago and now he is a commercial artist for the firm of Hart, Schaffner 8c Marx. Turning over the pages, strangely enough, I came across a biography of Henry Small. He had also been a member of that old class; but now he has a menagerie of his own and ranks with Rosa Bonheur in the painting of animals. The IIIUS' tration on the front cover of the magazine was drawn by a prominent physicianis wife who now practices art only at her pleasure. To me, this artist shall always be remembered as IIFIO Sanderson? A late number of the International Studio UVIarch 194D lay on the table. I began to look through it to find what was current in art. IIEtheI Jackson, sculptor, approaching Michael Angelo? I read. Being interested, I read on. ,Twas the same Ethel Jackson of Valpo. After leaving an excellent art record in the University, she had taken up sculpture work. At one time she had been engaged to be married, but her lover having died suddenly, she secluded herself to a life of sculpturing. She has produced some work that may some day be set by the side of Michael Angelds David and Moses. Another article of interest was that August Gonzalez had become a well known landscape artist. IISo this is where I went to school!,, The words startled me and I looked around to behold a dignified and sweetyfaced woman. She told me she was Miss Helen White and that she had come back for a Visit. She had founded and was successfully conducting a large fine arts school in the East. She was so intensely interested in art that she had kept in touch with the careers of most of her old classmates. She told me much about them. On the train, she had met her former art teacher, then Miss Beshears, and her husband, who were on their way to place their two children in the Art Tri- stitute at Chicago. The Institute had lately acquired and placed among their best works, several of the oil portraits by Aly Karim Eldin. Irene Woodburn is a critic in the Institute and also a prominent art lecturer. Wm. D. Herrera had gone to Spain as an accomplished architect. Two One hundred forty-three other architects had long been employed in reconstruction work in Europe, while the remainder of the class were well established in the United States. Stanley Rodequez is in Paris, distinguished most as a creator of ladies, fashions. The members of the old Theory and Practice class had left their stamps of improvement upon the art of the public schools in the middle west. Only a few of the freehand drawing students had continued their drawing after leaving school as they were too busy in other lines. Melva Ray and Myrtle Brink had both been married for a number of years. They had continued to paint china for their own use, but were too busy to put any on the market. Fay Chrissinger had established a stencilv designing business in Chicago that was steadily growing in volume. Novell Barnett, in the variety of his accomplishments, might be compared to Leonardo da Vinci. Barnett is a painter, a musician, a designer, a chem- ist, an engineer, an athlete, and a song-writer. He lately has written an autobiography of his own accomplishments in which he was not a dilletante in any one of the lines where his genius displayed itself. Hark! what was that? A hell. I jumped up and rubbed by eyes. I was alone and all was peaceful in the room. I had been asleep for more than half an hour. The ten dclock bell had awakened me. I looked around for my history book and hurried off to my next class.

Membership is limited to practicing or student lawyers. Zeta Chapter is also one of the oldest fraternities in the University, with history and traditions dating back to the days when the word iifraternity was a thing to be whispered between man and man. It now numbers among its members some of the most prominent attorneys in northern Indiana, including Judge E. Miles Norton, of Crown Point, and Ralph N. Smith, of LaPorte. Rooms have been leased in a downtown business block, and furnished to provide a convenient and comfortable home for the members. The annual banquet, given in the Domestic Science Building on November 19th, was a decided success. Several social functions have been held in connection with the Alpha Epsilon and Phi Delta Psi fraternities. A fraternity dance and an - elaborate banquet are planned for the spring quarter. While not neglecting the social side of life, Sigma Delta Kappa aims to rank high in the classroom, and its members this year have maintained a cone sistently high average of scholarship. The fraternity was well represented in inter-elass and varsity athletics, and in all school activities. Although the accomplishment of the present projects of the fraternity will be by no means an easy task, there is every reason to believe their attainment is assured.

As in the past, Phi Delta Psi maintained their home upon the ttHilP and with the success of the endowment assured, are now planning for a home on the new campus when the University shall move to the most beautiful school site in America. An active alumni body is behind the movement and through their combined efforts, the fraternity is looking toward a brilliant future. Although the fraternity loses several of its older members by graduation, new men have been initiated, which assures continued activity during the coming year.

One hundred fifty-five ETA BETA PI ' HERE are certain marked ends of accomplishment which can be attained by every fraternity. An organization, to be worthy of the name fraternity, must stand for well-defined principles. As a brotherhood it should first fulfill its obligation to its members. But it can have a larger function. It may enhance athletics by supplying the men to carry on the physical combats or it may sit on the side- lines with the staunchest kind of support. Dances and parties, with their music and laughter, broaden the student social life. Or, Terpsichore may be neglected and public performances aided by sending forth men to compete for positions on the debating teams, to give artist recitals, and to take part in plays. The entire working force of the aggregation may be expended and every bit of its energy utilized in helping to put forth school publications. And the organization may do much to supplement the actual school work by red quiring the entrants of the fraternity to have achieved a high scholarship and to aid them, when once they are members, to maintain their records. But no matter what the ends for which the fraternity may strive, the University must be considered foremost. Every activity must be measured in terms of what the benefit derived by the institution will be. The fraternities of Valparaiso fully realize their responsibilities. They have accepted the challenge and are standing side by side in their endeavor to uphold the principles upon which this University was founded. And Eta Beta Pi is proud to be even a small part of this union.

One hundred seventy-one THE REHABILITATION CLUB : HE Rehabilitation Club was organized in July, 1919, and was composed entirely of disabled eX-service men in training in Val- paraiso University under the Federal Board of Vocational Training. The purpose of the Club was to promote comradee ship and mutual helpfulness among the disabled eXaserVice men in training. From time to time the members were furnished wholesome social entertainment and in cooperation with the various clubs and organizations of the city, much additional entertainment was furnished to the men. Through committees of the Club, the eX-service men in the hospitals have been visited at regular intervals and their wants attended to. Also the members of the Club are available at all times for assisting recent arrivals from the Federal Board to become established in their new surroundings. Recently an auxiliary composed of the wives of the members has been ore ganized to promote a greater social spirit among the members. The Ree habilitation Club has always taken the leading part in theiobservance of all patriotic functions. The Club has always insisted that the proper observance be accorded the national holidays. In fact the Club has always been the spokesman for the ex-service men in this locality. It had always been the opinion of the members that some permanent national organization of dng abled eXeservice men should be formed which would continue the spirit of comradeship formed while in training but no desirable plan had ever pre sented itself until the invitation was received to the Cincinnati convention. The personell of the Disabled American Veterans of the World War ape pealed especially to the membership and now, the Club is functioning as a chapter of the national organization.

One hundred seventy-seven CATHOLIC STUDENTS SOCIETY Valparaiso University HE Catholic Students, Society of Valparaiso University has a long history, almost as long as the school itself. Away back when Valpo was only a normal school the Catholic Society had its beginning. Such organizations in those early days existed principally as social centers for the students and in this case the date of its origin is not definitely known since no record was kept. The Club was organized by the Catholic Students of the University. It,s s first purpose was to offer an opportunity for Catholic students to get together, know each other and, through the social possibilities of the club, help make student life at Valpo pleasant and more interesting. In the early days the Society held its meetings in ilbattle scarred,, Eloeution Hall, but later through the courtesy of the several Catholic organizations of the city, they have met in the Catholic Community Hall down town, where business and social ses sions are held bi-monthly. Many are the pleasant memories of former students who, either by dancing to the rythm of a volunteer orchestra or perhaps listening to some enthusiastic speaker, forgot for the hour, the pursuits of knowledge and lived only for the sheer joy. One of the biggest and best events of the present school year, was the Hallowe,en Masquerade Ball which was held in the University Gymnasium during the administration of Mr. Duffy. At the last election of officers which was held at the beginning of the win- ter quarter, William Kearney was elected to succeed Mr. Duffy. John Gillis and Anne Bushare were elected Vice President and Secretary-Treas- urer, respectively. Another big time was a PrevLenten dance, given last month in Community Hall. The music rendered by the Melody Boys was unapproachable and the fifty couples who were there will long remember the joyous evening. To prove the Catholic students are ever loyal to old Valpo, it was voted during the term to donate $100.00 to the Endowment Fund from the Club,s treasury. Perhaps Miss Catharine Corboy, more than anyone else, deserves the credit of making possible the splendid success of the Society. Always in- terested in the welfare of Catholic students she has won the deserved esteem and respect of every member of the Club. It is hoped that as the years roll past and we, the present members, return for a hand-shake around the campus, we will find the Society not extinct but even larger and better than ever.

It is the oldest sorority. Contributions have been made during the year to the follow ing: Endowment Fund, Womank Building, and the Near East Relief. The first social event held by the sorority was a formal dance given to the Alpha Epsilon and Phi Delta Psi Fraternities, October 29, 1920. On January 22, 1921, the sorority was entertained at a dinner dance by the Phi Chi Fraternity of the Loyola University of Medicine, Chicago, Ill. The Alpha Phi Delta,s were hostesses to the other sororities at a tea, Feb- ruary 12th given in honor of Mrs. Ross Winship, their new honorary mem- ber. A series of Matinee tea dances was given during the spring term in the sorority rooms. . During the spring time the Alpha Phi Deltas were active in social service. One hundred eighty-one SIGMA THETA URING the year of 191849 when the Rozelle girls first conceived the idea of a club, Sigma Theta passed through the first diffrcult stages of organization. Then in the year 1919-20 when sororities were Hrst recognized by the University authorities, she passed successfully through the maelstrom of difhculties which surrounded her in becoming organized and established as a sorority. When school opened in the fall of 1920, Sigma Theta was a name known throughout the university. Her organization was complete. Her place among the ore ganizations was established and her girls were found taking their parts and doing their share in every movement which led t0 the ultimate welfare of the University. Sigma Theta girls are found taking their parts in every activity of college life-on the tennis courts, on the basket ball floor, in the ball room and in the various religious societies of the University and in the class roomseevery where the Sigma Thetas are found doing their best that through their efforts the honor of Sigma Theta may be upheld. When Valpo sent out her call for financial aid both the loyal Alumnae and the active members responded nobly to her call and, casting aside other desires, they all gave liberally to the Endowment Fund in order that this University might live and prosper. And now that the Endowment is assured, now that the Greater Valparaiso University is not a dream, but a reality, Sigma Theta is again backing it to the utmost, seeking to develop women of the true Valpo typeewomen, who when they leave this University shall go out into the world and make the name of Valpo synonymous with all that is best in life. Such has been the ?im of Sigma Theta in the past and such shall be her accomplishment in the uture.

Seventeen members of the staff have worked hard to make the paper the best in University history. Criticism by newspaper men has been invited and has been always complimentary. Reports of the influence of the paper have invariably been good. The Torch has kept the student body abreast of the news. Every bit of news which might prove of interest found its way into the paper. The Whise pering Gallery told of all the little happenings off and on the campus, of the Visits and party notes of the students, and of everything which could be heard in a whispering gallery. The iiYes, Yes, Go On column caught the humorous incidents and passed them on for others to enjoy. The College World told of the happenings on other iiHills , and the Sport Section kept abreast of the sport world, with V. U. always in the limelight. The regular news filled the paper to bursting every week. The Valparaiso Torch used original material throughout, and the material was of first-class quality. N othing need be said of the staff. Each did his best to give his Alma Mater a better paper than ever before. It has been an honor for each to serve his University, although it has meant hours of hard and sometimes burdensome work each week for those in charge. We are proud of the record The Torch has made this year; proud of the way it has reHected the University life and activities, both humorous and pathetic; proud of the spirit which has kept our ideal always before us. uEvery number better than the last; every write-up a boost for a greater Valparaisosz is the record which we have tried to achieve, and, as we believe, successfully. In Volume VIII is written the history of the year. One hundred ninety-five AMERICAN ASSOCIATION OF ENGINEERS VALPARAISO CHAPTER Frank D. Summers, President Guy 0. Vaughn, Vice-President Raymond S. Brenton, Secretary Mathew Krag, Treasurer eHE American Association of Engineers is an organization of nae ' tional scope, embracing all branches and phases of engineering. It has proved invaluable as a medium of co-operation and general benefit to the profession, and its membership of 25,000 has made it a potent factor in the standardizing of technical ethics and practices. . It is of highest standing in its field and has effected many reforms of benefit to its members. Educational campaigns are continually carried on and a free employment bureau is maintained. Valparaiso University was permitted to participate in these activities with the establishment of this chapter. The Valparaiso Chapter was one of the first to be organized after the Association expanded its policies to include stu- dent groups, and has always exemplified the progressive spirit of the engineer. This year the membership included almost the entire department, resulting in a unification that found expression in a number of social functions, and a series of educational lectures during the year. Meetings are held weekly, at which technical problems are studied. Papers are presented by the members on the practical problems of their science, and in this way the student becomes familiar with actual practice. By a system in- augurated this year, credit is given for this work. Through the efforts of the faculty the leading engineers of the country cone tributed their talents in a series of lectures on a variety of topics. The social calendar of the school is marked with at least one function of the Association each term. Fall and Spring banquets are annual affairs and informal gatherings through the year keep the spirit of companionship alive. With its influence toward scholastic and social development the Association has done much for the development of the true engineer. One hundred ninety-seven mg , m .yk, 1 ,4 F RESHMAN ENGINEERS L. S.

PRE-MEDICS IN ATHLETICS HEN Coach Keogan put out a call for department teams to play for the cup awarded by the Cary Hardware Co., the Free Medics were among the first to respond. The team was organe ized and managed by Everett King. Herbert Swartz, an eXe varsity man, coached the team to Victory. Russell Battershell, captain and star forward, was one of the scoring machines essential cogs; Garcia and Komoroske, his mates on forward position, were always at his de mand. Florence, our reliable center, was an effective enemy to all the aspir- ing teams. Burton, the star back guard, wasn,t very often tricked on a man getting through his defensive line. King was Burton,s other defensive teami mate on Hoor guard, who often went through the opponents, line for a basket. The tournament scores resulted as follows: Pre-Medics 20, High School 12. Pre-Medics I l, Engineers 2. PrevMedics 30, Pharmics I I. The finals were between the Pre-Medics and the Pharmics. Very little opposition was shown to the Pre-Medics by the Pharmics. Two hundred three THE STENOGRAPHIC DEPARTMENT QVERLOOKING the City of Valparaiso, the Stenographic De partment is ideally located on the fourth floor in the Domestic Science Building. Thousands have peered out into the distance from these rooms Visualizing in the hazy distance their future. Those thousands have gone through .this iitraining shop,, and have attained enviable positions in the business world. The group of ambitious young men and women represented on the opposite page is facing the world like thousands have in the past. Upon their faces is the noticeable imprint of strong determination; a will to do things; the volune tary assertion that they, too, want to prepare so they can put their shoulders to the great wheels of industries. The Stenographic Department is fully equipped to associate itself with- the foremost schools in the country teaching this line. Its greatest recommendav tion is founded on the fact that the thousands who have entered this great channel of opportunity 'are found among presidents, Vice-presidents, execu- tives, private secretaries, and experts along their lines, in great concerns in every part of the country. 7'wo hundred 77126 GEORGE E. KEOGAN Director of Athletics VALPOS ATHLETIC MENTOR HE athletic fame of Valparaiso has been spread broadcast from coast to coast. Everywhere Valparaiso is considered and recog- nized as a predominate foe in every branch of sports. This reCH ognition was brought about chieHy through the tireless efforts of George E. Keogan. His name will forever reverberate in the corridors of Valparaiso University. He has placed Valparaiso 0n the pedes- tal of athletic fame. He developed a wonderful football aggregation in the two years he has worked for us. His only drawback for a defeatless season in this branch of athletics was his lack of first string men. His first squad of men were pronounced the greatest iieleven man,, team in the country. It was an iieleven man,, team because it was eleven men working as one. eBoth Harvard and Notre Dame realized this fact, and it was only through their reserve force that they were able to stave off defeat. In basketball Coach Keogan developed an offensive and defensive team that couldnt be beaten when they were Hhitting their stride,,. It was the greatest short-passing combination seen in action on our Hoor. The fiveeman defense, of which Keogan is a great advocate, proved to be an impregnable one. The snappy, short-pass offensive made a great point-scoring combination that was hard to beat. His 1920 baseball season was highly successful, and at this early writing prospects point to a great season this year. With his old letter men of last year in school and with the abundance of new material, Keogan should have a wonderful team. As general of V. Ufs athletics, George Keogan has been highly successful. Already Valpo is being feared in every branch of athletics. This prestige is due entirely to this mentors tireless endeavors to place us among the best! Two hundred seven A. W. LANGEVIN hCharcf, Our athletic manager, who is also an ex- pert ladies, man. When not at the field or Gym, he is found at Altruria. He likes to be called hCharcf, when he is in the company of the fair ones. Two hundred eight THE VALPO EAGLE $ Fe KENNETH CONLEY iCaptaini iiMoose,, The pilot of V. Ufs football team. Play- ing at left tackle, Conley directed his team in battle. He was an able general, a hard fighter, and a dependable man in every cri- sis. He played in practically every game. Moose was one of the main barriers in the great defensive line of his team. This is his final year at Valpo, and he will surely be missed. Aside from being a football player, he is a basketball and baseball player of rare ability. Two hundred nine WALTER GILBERT KoGiIOJ Here is an all-round athlete. At right-half on the football team he executed his duties in wonderful style. ilGil is a great line- plunger and a good broken field runner. He is also a dependable passer and punter. In the Harvard and North Dakota games this man was the outstanding star. Always in the game and fighting to the last, this fine athlete has won a warm spot in the hearts of every Valpo fan. Next year will find him once more in Valpo. THOMAS DANDELET i i Dan , , Ex-Captain of the 1920 squad. He needs no introduction. Dan is a great line-plung- ing fullback. This one hundred ninety-five pound man crashes the line with terrific force and is almost impossible to stop. He is also a wonderful defensive man, and when he brings his opponent to the ground he usually keeps him there. He is a student of the game and understands all its technical points. Dan will be with us again next year. Two hundwd ten e efus $.va RICHARD BRADLEY Dickll Here is Gilbertls running-mate. Dick was one of the mainstays of the backfield. He is a mass of talent, supported with a cunning, quick-thinking head. Bradley is a finished student in every department of the game. He is a great line-plunging, ground-gaining back. We will miss Dick next year. Yes, he is married, and hereafter it will be l'Coach Bradley . EARL GOHEEN Early,' Right tackle. A man on last years squad. Earl is a wise uold owl when it comes to playing a line position. He is educated in every department of the game and possesses the art of solving his opponents, plays that many football men lack. Aside frbm his athletic activities he is a real student also. He will be with us next season. Two hundred eleven JOHN COOK S$Pinky33 The right wing of the forward wall. This was Cook,s second year on the line. He dem- onstrated on many occasions to be one of the best defensive ends in the country. Cook plays a consistent game at all times. His size, coupled with his strength and knowl- edge of the game, will make him a very valu- able man for next years team. iiPinky is a Lawyer now. RALPH KRIEBEL ttDutcht' mlihe Pennsylvania terror? Dutch was stationed at left guard, and an abler man for that position would be hard to find. He is always working hard and looking for new pointers whereby he may become more pro- ficient at this position. Like Sawyer, Kriebel is a big, heavy man, and they make a won- derful pair of guards. This was KriebeVs second year on the squad and he is expected to be at his old position again next year. Two hundved twelve JOHN KERCHEVAL Kerch This husky lineman came to us from Wa- bash. He and Engstrom alternated at the center position. It would be hard to cle- termine which man has the shade of skill over the other at this position. llKerch is a heady man, an accurate usnapper-back and a marvel on the defense. He sustained an injury in the Notre Dame game that in- capacitated him for the remainder of the season. We hope to see him back again next year. RAY ECKLUND Ecklt Champion drop-kicker of the world for the season of 1920. The left wing of the Valpo line. Ecklund was the net on the receiving end of the aerial attack and his toe was edu- cated in the art of punting and drop-kick- ing. He was a great man both on the de- fensive and offensive. This man was on the side-line at Harvard, having sustained a se- vere injury in scrimmage a few days previ- ous. He will be with us again next Fall. Two hundwd thi7 teen ROSSMAN SAWYER uROSS,, iiRoss was stationed at the right guard position. He well deserves to be classed among the best in the State. Sawyer is a heavy, stockywbuilt man and has the de- termination and fight that make a good lineman. On the defense and offense he has no superior. He ripped holes in the oppo- nents, line large enough to drive a wagon through. He will be with us one more year. CHARLES HARRIS ttChuckt, Chuck,i was our other quarterback. Like Seanlon, he was a clever little man. He handled the ball with ease and precision and was quick to solve the opponents, defense. He directed his attacks in a manner that kept the opposition guessing all the time. He of- ten carried the ball himself and he proved to be a good ground-gainer. Two hundred fourteen ART ENGSTROM wfhe Swede Stationed in the center of the line, the uMinnesota Swede must be credited as be- ing a great football man. He fights ,em to the last yard, no matter how big they might be. He was on last years team and is ex- pected to be here for the 1921 season. He cannot be excelled in passing the ball to the backfield men. A wonder on the offense. FLOYD CEARING e l Speed h ! Cearing played his first year of College football last Fall. With one year of experi- ence to his credit he should develop into a wonderful halfback. In the open field this man was a second Harley. His terrific speed, coupled with his shiftiness, made him a hard man to stop. Once in the open field he was sure for a touchdown. Two hundred fifteen ALPHONSO TURCOT $ STu rk 9 , Here is a iimighty, little man . His mot- to is: mIihe larger they are the bigger the mark? uTurky is the final link in Keoganis light backfield. He is a wonderful line plunger and as defensive fullback he made an enviable record, starring in the St. Louis game. This is his first year with us and we hope to see him again next year. HAROLD HARRIS Beanie Slippery-elim,' Harris was another of Keogan,s light backfield men. i'Beanie was as slippery as a greased pig: iiNow yoy have him and now you donit. He was the running mate of Cearing in the backfield. He was a great man in the open held and a very consistent ground-gainer. This was his first year on Valpo's eleven. Two hundred six teen DAN CAMPBELL ttStub Campbell was among the reserve force of linemen. He was a hard-working man and always delivered the goods when called upon. He played at the guard position. With reserve men such as Campbell, Coach Keogan never worried when conditions made it necessary to substitute. This was Camp- bellis second year on the squad. DEWEY SCANLON itScanh This Irishman was the General of the team. He commanded the respect of every man. At the quarterback position he direct- ed the team,s play in a very efheienttmanner. Calm and cool, this clever quarterback, with his sly tactics and trick plays at the oppor- tune time, gained many yards for the Brown and Gold. His coolness enabled him to be a very accurate passer. Scanlon to Cil- bert was an effective combination. Two hundred sev enteen WALTER HILTPOLD uHippyu One of Keogank young, aspiring back- field men. This was Hippy,s first year in College football, and although he was not used in many games, nevertheless he came through at every calling. With a year of experience behind him he should be a whiz next season. He is a well-built lad and hits the line with terrific force. He has all the physical requirements to become a star. F OOTBALL REVIEW OF THE SEASON '7 i, vHANKSCIVINC DAY brought the curtain down upon the foot ball season of Valparaiso University. Successful? It was surely a highly celebrated season that will live forever in the minds of Valpo supporters. Opening this sensational season with Carroll College, the Brown and Gold were off in a rush. Very little op- position was encountered in this contest and Valpo won by a very onevsided score. The next game on the schedule was with Lake Forest, but the crush ing defeat of Carroll seemed to instill them with a little fear and they cane celled. Next was the Harvard game at Cambridge, October 9th, a memorable day in V. Ufs athletic activities. It was a day to which all previous training pointed; a clay in which Valparaiso University was to become known through out the country in the athletic world. This was a marvelous battle, indeed! F or three quarters the Valpo defense was impregnable. Mass attacks, straight football, and the aerial attack all failed against the stonewwall defense of the Brown and Gold. At the beginning of the fourth quarter Harvard punted, after being held for downs, and Cearing, who Was playing safety man for Valpo, fumbled the punt. A Harvard line-man immediately carried it over for their first touchdown. The same identical thing happened a few minutes later. The final touchdown came in the last minute of play, when Churchill, who had just ended the fray, circled our right end and sprinted 60 yards for a touchdown. Lack of reserve strength was our only handicap. Thirty-flve Harvard men battled against the thirteenstalwart Valpo huskies. The final score was Zl to 0. Too much credit cannot be placed upon the men who were on the line that day. They played a wonderful game. Cook and Carter on the ends, Goheen and Conley at the tackle positions, Sawyer and Kriebel at the guards, and Kercheval anol Engstrom in the center, all played like demons and won high praise from Coach Fisher, the Harvard football coach. In the backfield the most prominent and outstanding star was Gilbert, right half. Time and again he pounded the Harvard line for substantial gains. His punting also measured up to that of his opponent. Dandelet at fullback played a wonderful game. He was severely injured in the early part of the game, but he fought on to the end. Bradley at left hallC played his always faultless game. At quarterback Cearing played a good game, considering the fact that this game was really his first appearance in llfast company . Seanlon relieved Cearing in the last quarter. The freckled-faced Irishman directed his team in fine style and dem- onstrated his unquestionable ability at this position. The third game on the schedule was with Northwestern College. It was a very easy Victory, Valpo winning 85 to 0. Next came the Notre Dame game. Yes, Notre Dame won, but it was a battle from whistle to whistle. Before Notre Dame fully realized the game Two hundred nineteen was in progress, Ecklund dropped back in the punters position and booted a field goal from the 35eyard line. At the close of the first half the score stood 3 to 0 in Valpds favor. However, it was a question of reserve strength again, and Notre Dame, by continually rushing fresh men into the fracas, bore down upon our goal for four touchdowns and the game. Final score, 28 to 3. The next game was with De Pauw. We are very sorry that the conditions brought about over the ruling of an on-side kick and the withdrawal of our team from the field, necessitated a forfeit to De Pauw, I to 0. We sincerely trust that friendly athletic relations with the Southern College will be restored again. St. Louis was our next Victim. With the sting of last years defeat burning in the hearts of Valpo,s warriors, they entered the game with grit and determinae tion to wineand they did. Turcot, B. Harris, Cearing and Scanlon compOSe ed the backfield in this game, and they proved to be a groundegaining combinae tion. The final score was 41 to 0. Morningside College was another foe we were after for revenge, and it came to the tune of 14 to 0. The Iowa boys fought a stubborn battle and showed Classy form and football knowledge throughout the game, but they could not pierce the Valpo defense. In the last period of the game the Morningside aerial squadron opened up an attack that went for consistent gains, but they did not threaten our goal. The final game, on Thanksgiving Day, was played in Gary, Indiana, with the University of North Dakota. At the very beginning of the game Valpo rushed over a touchdown. Near the end of the first half North Dakota scored a touchdown on a forward pass. A little later Burke, for the visitors, kicked a field goal from the Z5ayard line and placed the score 10 t0 7 against us. At the beginning of the second half Scanlon was rushed in the quarter- back position, relieving C. Harris, and Cearing relieved B. Harris at left half. With a series of forward passes and end runs from the punt formation, with Gilbert and Cearing carrying the ball, the Brown and Cold rushed within striking distance and Gilbert went over for a touchdown. In the last quarter Dandelet registered a touchdown by piercing the opposing line three consecw tive times for consistent gains. The game ended with North Dakota in pos- session of the ball. They had resorted entirely to the aerial attack in hopes that a wild toss might be carried over for a counter. We give them credit for having a well-developed forward passing combination. Robertson, the North Dakota quarterback, was a clever, accurate passer, and on several occasions Worried our defense. In this game the Flickertail squad were helpless on mass attacks. On the other hand, Dandelet, Gilbert and Cearing ripped through the oppositions defense for long gains. Gilbert, Scanlon and Dandelet played a wonderful game in the backfield, while the line from end to end put up a stub- born and effective defense and a crushing offense. This finished a most successful football season for George Keogan and his husky warriors. Winning six games and losing two is an enviable record. Those two games lost were to two of the mightiest football combinations in the Two hundred twenty world. Considering the fact that this is the second year for Valparaiso in athletics, it must be looked upon as a marvelous accomplishment. The ath- letic fame of Valpo is established. Our duty now is to keep it upon the pedestal of fame and recognition it now reclines upon. Thanks to George Keogan and his clan of pigskin pugilists for their unceasing efforts in establish- ing this fame that will live forever in the annals of V. Ufs athletic under- takings.

Playing a total of 24 games and losing only four is a record deserving of the highest praise by the most skeptical observer. This record was accomplished through hard and constant work by the entire squad and Coach Keogan. Drilling on the short pass offensive attack, the wearers of the Brown and Gold, through their highly developed system of short passing, were enabled to pierce the most stubborn defense almost at will. When these five fearless basketeers once got under way and working as they should, there were no teams capable of stopping them. Everyone a wizard at his position, anticipated the move- ments of his mates. On the defense this team was equally as effective as on the offense. Coached and trained in the style of the Five Man Defense, they smothered everything that came close to their basket. Most of the points scored against this wrecking crew were shots from the middle of the Hoor. In other words, shots that bordered on the lucky. Starting this noted season with Michigan City Y. M. C. A., with a Victory, they were off in good shape. The first live contests were really easy victories for our men. Not until Notre Dame invaded our quarters did the Brown and Cold five taste defeat. The Catholics won by four points in the last few moments of play. The following three contests went down as Victories for Valpo. The second defeat of the season came when our men encountered Dubuque University on their home floor. This defeat was due largely to the fact that our men had a longride on the the train and were too tired to start the game at top speed. On the following night we easily defeated Dubuque by the score of 24 to l 1. Detroit University won from us by the score of 22 to 16. In this game the V. U. warriors far outclassed their opponents in the short passing game, but they could not find the hoop. Valpo was two to one better on the number of shots but most of them were wild. Now started the grand march down our schedule with ten Victories without a defeat. Foremost among these games were two with St. Louis University and one with Notre Dame. In the St. Louis games was demonstrated speed, skill and endurance. They were fast, thrilling games, and will long be re membered. In these two games Bradley, Ecklund and Harris were out- standing stars for Valparaiso. The Notre Dame game was played in South Bend and it offered a big surprise for the Irish congregation that witnessed the game. The Catholics scored first but soon Valpo took the lead and re- tained it until the end. The final score was 32 to 26. In this game Bradley and Ecklund were the stars for Valpo. The final game of the season and the one that was looked forward to with the keenest anticipation, was played March 2nd, with Creighton University of Omaha. This was the greatest and most interesting game ever played in our gym. It was a contest replete Two hundred twenty-eight with sensational pass work and skillful basket shooting from start to finish. It was the cleanest of clean games and one that surely was a pleasure to witness. The Western five are deserving of the highest praise because they were bas- ketball players of the best calibre. Kearney, the Creighton center, contine ually led the attack and he was high scorer for the Visitors. He was a fast, clever man and was easily the Westerners' star. ttBeannie2 Harris was the outstanding star for Valpo, although the individual Hashes of Ecklund and Bradley were also prominent throughout the fracas. The fmal score was 24 to 26. The final counter was slipped through the loop two seconds before the final whistle blew. Thus ended a great and successful season for V. Ufs basket tossers. Playe ing a schedule of 24 games and losing only 4 is surely a record deserving of the highest praise. T0 George Keogan and his stalwart flve belongs the credit for this, the greatest record in the history of Valparaiso University. BASKETBALL RESULTS Valpo, 34 Valpo, 16 Michigan City Y. M. C.

Always fighting until the last, Dick has won a warm spot in the heart of every Valpo supporter. His speed, coupled with his ac- curate judgment of the loop, makes him a mighty fine forward. He starred in the Notre Dame game. EX-Captain of the I920 Five. BEANNIE HARRIS Forward. iil.3yea1nnie,, is a clever little man and handles the ball in great style. He is exceptionally speedy and his ability to dribble in, bewilders his opposing guard. Once free, he is almost sure to score. He played a remarkable game against St. Louis and he also starred in the Creighton game. Received honorable mention on the All-State Five. MILLARD ANDERSON THOMAS DANDELET Andy is surely a dependable Center. He is always playing the same steady game. This was his First year with us, but his team work was equal to that of a Veteran. Being a big man: he has the advantage in most of the games, and his ceaseless scor- ing ability places him among the best. iiAndy is also a baseball player of rare ability. RAY ECKLUND Dan is our stellar Guard. He is a speedy back man and he handles everything in his reach. He is the bulwark of Valpa- raisds defense. This was iiDans' second year on the team. Well do we remember his performance last year, and his showing this year even surpasses that of last. Our other Guard. Eckiundis work coin- cides with that of Dandelet except Ray plays the Hoor. He is a speedy man and an accurate basket tosser. Coolness and confidence are two requisites that this man possesses. 'He received honorable mention on the AH-State team. We feel sure this fine athlete will wear the togs of the Brown and Gold next year. Two hundred thirty-one EARL GOHEEN Guard. This was Earrs second year on the team. No matter how the score stood, this man was in the game heart and soul. He is an artist at the long shot, and no op- ponent dared leave him free. He many times advanced the score with his fast dribbling. WALTER GILBERT tCaptaint A sad catastrophe happened to this phenomenal athlete right at the very begin- ning of the season. For over three weeks he was confined in a hospital with small- pox, thus leaving him physically unfit to participate in many games. Gilbert plays a forward position and was the running mate of Bradley on last year,s team. He is one of the speediest forwards who ever ran the Hoor and his basket-shooting is re- markable. We regret Gil was not able to perform as one of the main cogs in this years wonderful aggregation. He will be with us one more year. BALDWIN McGLENNON Baldy plays a forward position. Al- though he is small nevertheless his speed and accurate shooting discounts his size. This was uBaldy'sn first year on the team. Another year should make him a star. Two hundred thirty-three REVIEW OF THE 1920 BASEBALL SEASON .551 3 first year for the team to play together and considering this fact Valpo had a mighty fine teamebetter than comparative scores indicate. The biggest handicap was pitchers. On several oc- casions no first string pitcher was available and consequently we met defeat on four occasions. The first game with Wisconsin was won by the Badger nine 4 to 0. Only one pitcher was in condition that day and it was too early in the season for him to go the entire route, consequently we lost. The second game we won from Armour Institute by a one-sided score. The third game, with Lake Forest, was an easy victory. Notre Dame won two games from us, the first 2 to 0 and the second 2 to I. In both of these games the iibreakf 0f the game were against us. The second was almost a crime for us to lose. On our trip through Michigan we defeated the Michigan Aggies I i to 3 and Kalamazoo Normal played us fourteen innings to a tie score, 55. We defeated the Michigan Aggies for the second time, 3-1, on our home ground and likewise Kalamazoo College 10 to i. Armour won a game from us in Chicago, 7 to 2. Lake Forest lost another to us, 10 to l, on their home lot. Every one of these defeats with the exception ofithe first one with Notre Dame, should have been Victories for the Brown and Cold. Lack of pitchers was our handicap. With our nine letter men back in school this year a grand string of Victories are bound to come in rapid succession to the V. U. ball tossers. $35311-H3 baseball season of 1920 was a very successful one. It was the Two hundmd thirty-four Ff MOOSE CONLEY l'Moose is a pitcher of marked ability and he is also a mighty fine first sacker. Be- ing a big man he offers an ample target for his co-workers. On the pitchers slab he is to be feared at all times because he is a smart and heady pitcher. At bat, too, he is to be feared because he swings a heavy, wicked stick. RAY ADAMS An athlete and a scholar is a rare com- bination. Ray is one of these rarities, and more, too. He is a gentleman and a sports- man on and off the held, -and a credit to Valparaiso and the national pastime. We shall never forget his work on the slab against Notre Dame and Wisconsin, for it was an epic in the hurling history. LEN TREE Stumpi, was the old stand-by last year at all times. He possesses all the knowl- edge any college catcher will ever have. He was always in the game heart and soul working for Victory. Len is an ideal catcher for a young pitcher because he studies ev- ery hitter that approaches the plate and can guess their weakness at a glance. Two hundred thirty-six 3.5.2I1LH: 7 :;?l : THE RECORD E2; e-ait mun: RECORD M- DICK BRADLEY. Last year Dick played second base. This year however he will be placed in the outer gardenehis regular position. He is a heady ball player, a fast man in the out- field, and one of the heaviest swatters on the club. Being a left hand hitter he has a big advantage when facing right-hand pitching. HERB SCHWARTZ. Schwartz is an all-round man. Last sea- son he played both the infield and outfield. This year he is plugging the shortstop posi- tion and from early observations it appears he will be a wizard. This is Schwartfs third year on the team. In 1918 he played first base and captained his team through a successful season. He is a leftwhand hitter and although not to be classed with the heavy stickers, he nevertheless has an aver- age among the best. WALTER GILBERT. Gil is another man who fits in any place. At Valpo he has been placed at third base. No better man ever played the hot corner than this tangy athlete. In the outfield he is a sensation but owing to insufficient ma- terial for the infield he was brought in to lend a helping hand. Gilbert is the heavi- est and most consistent hitter on the team. Two hundved thirty-seven w THE RECORD EARL GOHEEN Earl is a very fine outfielder. He covers his territory fast and is sure on the catch. Owing to his heavy course he has not re- ! ported for the team this Spring. BOBBIE ROBINSON Bobbie is another of our outlielclers. It must be said of this congenial Hawaiian that he is an A-l ball player. He is fast in the outer pasture and when he once reaches a fly ball you may depend upon him to retain it. He is also a very good hitter. This is Bobbiek third year on the team. SAM BLEDSOE The boy from Tennessee. Sam craves hot weather all the time when he is placed at the receiving station. He is a very clever catcher, and possesses every require- ments that a first-class receiver must have. Last year when he was not working. behind the bat Sam was held in readiness to pinch hit, for there never was a more consistent and accurate hitter in the game.

MCGUIRE Director of Physical Education for Women HYSICAL Education for Women, although in its infancy in '1 Valparaiso University, has shown decided growth and adv vancement the past year. The enrollment has increased and the work has been carried on with enthusiasm. At the close of the Fall term a Demonstration was given in the gymnasium by the classes. Each girl was represented in the program which was as follows: Mountain March. Swedish Day's Orders. Dance of the Dominoes. Wand Drill. Russian Cossack Dance. Violin Solo-Mr. Salak.

P?NQerPQNf An interesting feature of the gymnasium work was the course offered es- pecially designed for teachers. The classes were large, and practical may terial was gained. F 01k dances were taken up and games played and then studied from a teachefs standpoint. Work for the grades and lower high school was covered. Keenlinterest was shown in basketball. Many girls reported for practice and two teams, the iiBrowns and the Golds,,, played lively games before the student body. The iiBrowns were victorious the first game but were defeated by the iiColds,, the second game by a small margin. Both teams played well for the short time spent in practice and with more time at their command could easily develop stars. GOLDs BROWNS R. F.-V. Phegley R. F.-F. Pike L. F.-J. Miner L. F.w-K.

Two hundred fifty LAWYERS TWENTIETH ANNUAL STRAWaHAT PARADE LOUIS BLOMQUIST its haunts, on Friday, April first, the Lawyers were up and ClOe mg. Well they knew that it was a gala day for them. The weather showed forth 100 per cent, and it was conceivable that the day would win favor for the old custom of by-gone Lawyer days. So as the bulwarks of old V. U. radiated with the beams of the rising sun, there was action depicted in the area surrounding the Law Building. Yes, there moved the living oracles 0f the Law! As the moments rolled by and merged into minutes and then into hours, with the rush of anxious students to their classes, the clay began to take on a new atmosphere with the hopes of a good and glorious event. When noon-tide had passed by, there ventured forth from the dormitories surrounding the campus, weird and masked strangers in mystic action, indulge ing in comic tactics and gloom-chasing exhibitions. The passers-by wondered at it all though they had previously heard of the planned event. There they stood aghast, and appeared puzzled at the quaint, strange, boisterous individw uals. Old Satan was present with fork and tail, far distant from the regions which boast his residence. Villa, the Mexican bandit, appeared on the scene, a sneering hypocrite, and seemed to displace all security from the hearts of the student folk. Then, as if Providence had dealt a hand, there arose in the midst of the seemingly feared throng, General Pershing, upon a noble, prancing steed. Tarzan of the Apes, a club-toting figure, ran rampant everywhere. Following this, music rent the air; along came dancers of every nation and clime. Hula hulas from Hawaii, strawecl from shoulder to knee in attire so becoming, quivered convulsively as every note sounded forth from Valpds peppiest of bands. Cleopatra fair vamped and vamped, and Mark Antony fell. Then, on moved the parade, bands playing and colors waving, for Valpo was off. On and on continued the mass of autos, equestrians, pedestrians, comedians, dancers and simple folE. College Avenue was alive with the joys of College Days. They seemed to crawl, hop, tottor, or quiver along as for- ward they moved. Joy and mirth pervaded all. Forward moved youth, instilled with the loyalty that V. U. well deserves. Life seemed to every one that day, an endless chain of happiness. Two hundred Jifty-two Robins and wrens knew not where to Hatter for Valpo,s sons and daughters Huttered everywhere. With rythmic step to the tune of fife and drum, Valpo kept marching on. Nothing could stop her this day, for her heart was filled with all that was encouraging and noble. Life was bliss, and roses be- decked her steady advance. Hip, Hip, 'Hooray for Deon Bowman, was on every lip. . Down Lincolnway the step of Valpds youth did turn; cheering and sing ing to Schellingk Opera House they moved. Once within, New Yorkis best orchestra and a Hawaiian Trio of mandolins and harps struck up a lively note. Then, onto the stage there walked a winsome maiden who bemoaned her romance in life with a sad finish-spurned by her betrothed, Harry, the Milk Man. Quivering, trembling in rags, there shimmied forth in the next act, two im- ported BolshevikseGood Night! Oh, how they shimmied. The Opera House, packed to overflowing, shook with the laughter that was produced. The Judges Daughter, a play in three acts, brought tears to the eyes of many. Hula Hula dancers, Egyptian maidens, the Gold Dust Twins, Ethiopians, Clowns, Fairies, Cadets, Comedians, Dudes, Cowboys and Stretcher Bearers performed their respective antics in the grand finale. As evening came on the performance ceased, the crowd gathered without, the band struck up iiValpof and they were off for the hill to make ready for the evenings grand ball. Thus, for the twentieth consecutive time, dropped the curtain on the Valpo Law Students, festivities. f1 two hundred fi f ty- three THE DEBATING TEAM NEGATIVE FORDAN NEWSOME WOODSON i tCaptaim THOMAS MARSTON WELLS AFFIRMATIVE VAN SICKLE PIERCE STIMPSON tCaptai'rU iHIS place accorded to the Debating Team is by no means sig- x I nihcant of the place they really deserve. With scarcely one full week functioning as a team, they were able to cope with the best teams in the state, and come out tied for first place, with Notre Dame and Wabash. It is hoped that next year, with more time taken in preparation, George Stimpson, the captaineelect, and five of this year's veterans, will clean the state.

But, for all our efforts, we might have faila ecl, had it not been for the kindness of the many who gave their unselfish assistance, and encouragement. With a spirit of sincere gratitude We wish to thank, Dean C. C. Brown, Miss Beulah Beshear and her pupils, Mr. Small, Miss Chrisinger, Miss White, Mr. Raudevue, and above all Miss Sanderson. By no means is this all. Thanks are due to Miss Ruth M. Ferris, Mr. Paul Mather, V. U. ,l4, and Mr. Achaval. Space does not permit the mentioning of all the others who through their confidence have helped this work along, but we can not forget the Senior Class of I92 I . It is with a glow of pride that we feel that we are a part of a class such as 21 has proven to be. It is time to go. Soon we shall say farewell. But let it be a farewell with all sincerity. Forget the worst and meanest things, and remember us, each class mate, and each fellow student only as pleasant acquaintances on the narrow pathway.
