OLIVER PERRY KINSEY PRESIDENT EMERITUS TlIc L'nit'rrsity-An Edumfar and Trut' NIouldt'r 0f CharadprU HISTORICAL SKETCH OF VALPARAISO UNIVERSITY Valparaiso University was founded September 16, 1873, by Henry Baker Brown, who was president of the institution until his death, September 16, 1917. President Brown was born October 6, 1847, at NIount Vernon, Ohio. At the age of fifteen he began to teach. From his small salary he saved suHicient to continue his education. After a course at Ohio VVesleyan University, Delaware, Ohio, he entered the National Normal University at Lebanon, Ohio, where he was graduated. Early in his teaching experience the realization came to President Brown that many young people are prevented from attending institutions of higher learning by the great expense and in many instances the impractical courses of study. It became his purpose to establish a school in which work, not wealth, would be the standard and every person would have an opportunity to obtain a thorough and practical edu- cation at the least possible expense. To the fulfillment of this resolve he gave his energy, his means, his talent, and his life. There was a school building at Valparaiso which had been occupied until 1870 by a NIethodist college. 11h. Brown came to Valparaiso in 1873, made arrange- ments to purchase this property, and in September he opened, in what has since been known to generations of students as HThe Old College Building, the Northern In- diana Normal School with three instructors and thirty-five students. The Northern Indiana Normal School soon began to express the purpose of its founder. Students gathered in increasing number from near and distant states and from foreign countries, and President Brown called about him an able and devoted corps of instructors. The names of VV. A. Yohn, Bliss Mantie Baldwin who is still living, 34. E. Bogarte, R'Iiss Lillian Chamberlain tMrs. BogarteL H. N. Car- ver, and other teachers of this period are held in grateful recollection by hundreds of men and women who sat under their instruction. The duties of management were many and the work heavy, but President Brown carried the burden alone until 1881, when Oliver Perry Kinsey joined him and as- sumed the duties of vice-president. Mr. Kinsey,s learning and zeal for teaching, his practical Sagacity and business acumen, his indefatigable industry, his devotion to the ideals of the founder, which were and are his ideals as well, are ineradicable factors in the upbuilding 0f the institution. Together, these two remarkable men, friends and associates in the work of human betterment, made the school one of the largest institutions of learning in the United States. The inHuence 0f the men and of the institution which they built has radiated to every state and to every country. More .. 20 .. A. Mmi than one hundred twenty-five thousand men and women in all parts of the world have derived some of the elements of their success from the educational opportunity given them at Valparaiso. Even in its earlier period the institution outgrew the limits of a normal school. Departments of music and fine art existed from the first. Commercial, collegiate, civil engineering, and law departments were soon added. In 1892 the School of Pharmacy was established. In 1900 the name of the institution was changed to Valparaiso College, and after the addition of other departments the institution was incorporated in 1907 as Valparaiso University. In 1920 the University with all its property Was transferred to a seIf-perpetuating board of trustees as a gift to the cause of education. The institution is not operated for profit7 but in trust for the people. For nearly half a century the Characteristic principles of the institution have been those laid down by Henry Baker Brown at its beginning-hard work, low cost to the student, complete democracy, and the combination of cultural education with definite preparation for a vocation. The present management and the entire faculty are united in the support of these principles and the desire to perpetuate them. In this way the University will remain an enduring monument to the men who made it and an instrument of service to humanity. .. 21 .. Faculty cmd Hdmimylmlz'm .. 24 ..

THOMPSON ITis night in Valparaiso and throughout the town The: people all sleep peacefully. , .And out on the campus of the University - Three shadowy figures I see. These three forms suggest an old story I have heard Of fates who the future foretell. And as I draw close I hear ope of them say In a voice 10W, butIcIear as ,a hell: IIFrom yonder large buildings shall graduate soon A very remarkable class, Each member is destined to famous become, IIll relate What I see come to pass. A clever Phrenologist onle girl now is, With ear-rings ahd handkerchief red. Her names,s Lillie Kraft, she character reads By feeling the bumps 0h one,s head. Interpretive dancing is now being taught In a studio near Dublin Bay, By Sam Novak and P. H. NIurphy. They have classes all hours of the day. An industrious maid With a dust cloth in hand, Chases dirt from the boarding house chairs. And no one would guess ytwas the same Hattie Lowe, That used to put on such great airs. Beatty Julien and John CookeAttorneys at Law, Have recently hung out their shingle. Theylve not had a case but ltis hoped they will soon, So their pockets With money Will gingle.

CRANDAL DEAN OF COMMERCE Jesse R. Crandal was born in Bamboo. VVisconsin, January 3d, 1868. He re- ceived his primary education and graduated from Newton, tlowai High School, and in 1892 from Ida County Institute for Teachers. He attended Des Moines Univer- sity for a year and then devoted himselffto the teaching profession. He later attended Central State Normal at Edmond, Oklahoma, from Which he graduated in higher pedagogy in 1913, receiving a life certificate. He then attended the University of Southern California and graduated from Leland Stanford in 1918, having majored in History and Education. He received his lVIasters degree from Eastern College and in 1921 attended the Graduate School of Commerce of New York University. He comes to us from Taylor University, Upland, Indiana, where he filled the post of Professor of History and Education. 1 His great sincerity and congenial disposition, Which manifests itself to his stu- dents at all times, has endeared Dean Crandaly not only to his own department, but to the student body in general. His great Iniridkis? eclipsed only by his great heart and his lectures have been an inspiration to all those who have been fortunate enough to be enrolled in his classes. 1 It is no wonder, then, that the School of Commerce hasrtaken on new life since the coming of this man, who, by the addition of new courses and on account of his own sterling reputation, has caused his department toibe put on the accredited lis- of commercial schools, a position enjoyed only by the foremost commercial colleges of the country. By gaining this recognition, Dean Crandal has added inestimably, not only to the great future of his own department, but to Valparaiso University, of Which it is a part. ' ..71.. ELMQEEOL :C A0329 SCHOOL; OF COMMERCE The senior class of ,24 is graduating in the year which has marked a renaissance in the department. Courses are so arranged as to permit students to major in either of the Big Four of Commerce: Accounting, Business Administration, Trade, and Commerce. Additions have been made to the curriculum until now the school offers a course Which covers the wide field of commerce in its entirety. This being a rec- ognized fact, the school has become accredited and now stands on common ground with the foremost schools of commerte in the country. Though this departmental rebirth is perhaps due to the untiring efforts of Dean Crandal more than any one else, the school feels justly proudrof'its splendid faculty, the Dean and department being fortunate in having such a capable staff as Professors Humphrey, Zimmerman and Welch, as well as an eHicient corps of assistants. U11- der this faculty the scope of the department has been broadened to include a teachers' course, which, upon completion, fits the student for the teaching profession and grants a state certificate which exempts the holdet from all further tests 01' ex- aminations. ' The school has continued to'be one of the largest and most active on the Hill, and although this year marks an epoch in its development, we feel there are still greater things in store. u .. '73 .. THE CHAMBER OF. COMMERCE As well as being an aid and stimulant t0 scholarship, the Chamber of Commerce gives' students practice in organizing and promoting business and civic associatioiis. By maintaining connections with firms here and in Chicago ar'ld' the surrounding country, the organization is able to procure employment, free of charge, for all who apply. No small amount of the credit for the splendid showing of the School of Com- merce is due to this body. It is now in its fourth year of service, having been founded in October, 1921, by Professor Humphrey. This year the Chamber has been instrumerital in improving their department. Proceeds of the Commercial NIinstreIs and the Commercial Ball were used to enlarge the Department of Com- merce library, an establishment of Which the Department can justly be proud. .. 75..

Duke Florance, of the Varsity squad, was chosen as coach, and through his loyal- ani conscientious efforts, and with the assistance of NIanager tiRed Parks, succeeded 7 in whipping into shape a team Which was recognized as one of 'the best in the tourney, The loyal support of their department was a great incentive to the Commercial warriors, and, although Capt. King and his hard fighting team did not Win the cup, they succeeded in gaining third place in what was easily the hottest race in the history of intra-muralr basketball.

NEET EXV 80 x J GEORC u W ;! m hthH Wilma 1x1 HHHJ GEORGE W. NEET DEAN OF EDUCATION The School of Education is extremely fortunate in having at its head George W. Neet, who, in experience and progressive thought, ranks with the foremost educators of the age. He was born in Park county, Indiana, March 15, L963. He attended Riley high school, afterward teaching for eight years in the country schools of his native , state. He was graduated from Indiana State Nbrmal in 1898, and then taught in the high schools of Illinois for several. years. Later he attended Indiana University, specializing in Biology and Psychology. He later served as superintendent of the highlischool at Spiceland, Indiana. ' . Twenty six years ago, NIr. Neet'eame t0 Valparaiso University as an instructor and dean of the School of Education. During these years he has written and pub- lished a number of books, such as htStudies in Psychology ; HInductive GrammarH, Practical Methodologw, and HStudies inf Pedagogy . In recognition of these pub- lications he was given the degree of Doctor of'Pedagogy. Dean Neet has always borne in mind the fact that, to endure, a school must ad- vance with the times, and it has ever been his earnest desire to see the School of Edu- cation remain in the van and carry aloft the torch of progress. He is a highly eHicient instructor, enjoying the respect of both the faculty and the student body. Besides being president of the Bogarte Book Company, he holds several other responsible positions. He is a valued citizen and a great asset to the city and the University. .. 81 .. r-s ZCFHINLLQ: LC ACCEQm LORETTA LEWIS Plum T. PRITZKAU ANNA EDMAN RUTH XVEBB Trms. Pres. Vztr-Prr't. SN'y. EDUCATIONAL DEPARTMENT Since 1873, which year marked the founding of this institution, then known as the Indiana Normal School, the Department of Education has been noted for its efficient service. It has always been a center for progressive ideas, and its leader- ship a positive force in education throughout the country. Dean George W. Neet, Professor Ellis, and their assistants are worthy of high praise for their unselfish devotion to the cause which has lifted the school to its present plane of efficiency. The worth of a school may best be judged by the achieve- ments of its graduates. The graduates of the Valparaiso School of Education have held responsible positions as teachers, superintendents, and instructors in colleges and normal schools throughout the country. During the summer session the School of Education is the strongest department at Valparaiso. The alumni realize that this picturesque City is an ideal haven in which to gain a respite from the arduous routine of the school year, and at the same time improve themselves under such capable and congenial instructors. The summer session aids them in keeping abreast of the times and in acquainting themselves with the latest methods of advanced pedagogy. A college career, in spite of occasional adversities, is, nevertheless, a period of happiness and enlightment. We become so intimate with college life and the campus atmosphere that it becomes a part of us, and a part that Will remain with us for- ever. Our close relationship with teachers, friends, and acquaintanceskhas made a lasting impression and will ali'ays serve to recall fond memories of our dear old Alma Mater. A last word to the many seniors, who will receive the reward of honest en- deavor at the end of this year. They are on the threshold of life, and, inspired by Old Valpo, are now ready to step out into the broad. Held of service. NIay their Chosen profession be one long period of success and happiness. - .83.. ATHLETIC REVIEW OF EDUCATIONAL DEPARTMENT The school year. of 1923-24 has been unusually successful in athletics. The memorable victories in football and basketball have indelibly impressed themselves on the minds of the spectators. The honors in Conference athletic competition were won by the indomitable spirit of our athletes, backed by the unfailing loyalty of the student body. Several studentsof the Educational Department are worthy of honorable men- tion for the part they played in winningrthe Inter-State Conference football cham- pionship, especially, TTBeanyT, Harris, who so ably piloted the gridiron warriors to a Victorious season. He was the plucky captain who bewildered his opponents by his many trick plays and lightning-like formations. Hiltpold and Scott also held responsible positions on the Varsity eleven. The basketball season was even more brilliant, especially for the Educationals, who had four menkon the Varsity five. Four-fifths of a team speaks well for the department, and we are proud to say they were men who believe in clean sports- manship, and who fought with an enduring spirit which brought success on so many occasionsn nBeany Harris, the flashy forward, was undoubtedly one of the best players in the Conference. His running mate, Cadwallader, was the tricky fellow who was always ready with some play which upset the dope 0f the visitors, and helped decide many hard fought contests. The speed and clever guarding of Hiltpold was always a'great asset to the team, and the backguard, TTOil,y Scott, broke up the opponents, play iand kept the Visitors, scores at a minimum. In intra-Inural athletics, the Educational joined forces with the Arts and Sciences in a gallant attempt to gain the championship of the basketball tournament. Though they did not win the trophy, their team displayed marked ability in every game played. 3 .. 84 .. 1?riycmzd Scz'eflcey ALPHEITS AMERICUS WILLIAMS DEAN 0F COLLEGE OF ARTS AND SCIENCES Alpheus Americus Williams became a member of the faculty in 1890, acting as a part-time instructor while taking college work. He continued this until 1895, when he received the B. S. Degree and A. B. Degree. A short time later he entered the University of Illinois as a post-graduate student in Higher IWathematics and En- gineering. Upon the completion of his studies at Illinois he became President of the Illinois Normal College at Bloomfield, where he remained until 1902. He then re- turned to Valparaiso as an instructor in the Department of Commerce, later be- coming Professor of R'Iathematics. In addition to conducting his Classes in mathematics, he served for three years as Vice-President and Treasurer of the University, becoming Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences in the Fall of 1923. Those who come in contact with him, either as fellow-members 0f the faculty or in the classroom, are ever aware of his sincerity, earnestness, and spirit of helpfulness. He is respected and admired by all who know him. ..N?.. mFVZmva :Zxx $$sz LC ECWHHCL OFFICERS ELWIN E. NICCRAY PERRY H. MURPHY VIRGINIA LODGE SAM C.

They received first place in the line of march for the annual Home-Coming Day par- ade on November second. Over one hundred students arrayed in departmental colors, green and White, followed immediately behind the band, demonsttating that those who come to Valpo to seek a liberal education are not lacking in school spirit. The Department united with the Educationals in entering a team in the Inter- Departmental basketball tournament held during the VVinterlQuarter. The team finished in fifth place, winning two games and losing four. A social success was scored by the department on Friday evening, February 15th, when a Hard Times Dance was given in the University gymnasium. Over one hun- dred couples availed themselves of the opportunity to attend an affair in clothes sig- nificant of poverty, and paid the Hbargain pricet, admission of ninety nine cents to dance to the strains of VVaggonerts Indiana Six; A largesum was realized, Which was given for the promotion of Valpo athletics. .. 89 ..

During the Fall term programs by several different students were presented, and in the Winter and Spring Quarters complete recitals were given by the more advanced students. The popular comedy, To The Ladies , was presented to an audience which com- pletely filled the University Auditorium on Tuesday evening, December 11th. A very pleasing plot, and the manner in which it was presented, provided an enjoyable eveningTs entertainment. 1 ' CAST Leonard Beebe .............................................

ARTS AND SCIENCESeREDL'CATIONAL BASKETBALL The combined Arts and Sciences and Educational basketball team was organized early last fall, these two live departments making provision for their athletic activity at the same time as the general organization of the department. Under the direction of Bowman and Hiltpold, practice started before the Close of the football season. though little progress was made at this time because of Coach Hiltpold being oee eupied 0n the gridiron. The only veteran of last yearys tournament was hSpudH Smith, Who ably held down the back guard position, the remainder of the team being green men. Hall and Rushley showed up well in the guard positions, and O'Mara at center, and Smith and Bolan forwards, played the Hoor in good shape. Before the close of the season, the Green and White Inextwere giving the other teams the stiffest kind of competition. The new men underwent a great improve- ment as the season progressed and, with a veteran team next year, these fellows, will bear Watching. IIES 'G NCIS H1 THOMAS FRA THOMAS FRANCIS HUGHES, MUS. BAC. DEAN, NIL'SIC AND DRAMATIC ART DEPARTMENT Dean Hughes, like many artists of premier ability, began his career early, owing much to the teaching of his parents, both of whom had considerable knowledge of music, both instrumental and vocal. ' Dean Hughes has had a long and varied career Which has covered the field of music in all of its many phases. He is an alumnus of the department of which he is now the head, graduating from the Valparaiso School of Music in 1897 after winning the class medal in voice. He then became tenor soloist of 'the Second Baptist Church, Chicago, where he continued his vocal studies under VVilliam Wade HinshaW, who had been his in- structor in Valparaiso. Branching into the teaching profession, Dean Hughes occupied the post of Pro- fessor of Voice at Bethany College, Chicago Auditorium Conservatory, Hinshaw Conservatory, Lafayette Conservatory, and Arizona University. His store of musical and dramatic knowledge also includes concert and opera, Dean Hughes having been with the Chicago Opera Company. llendelsdhn 7Male Quartette, William Wade Hinshaw Grand Opera Company, Bouchier Grand Opera, and Katherine Ridgeway Concert Company. Dean Hughes took charge of the Valparaiso NIusic Department in the summer of 1923 and the school has prospered greatly under his artistic and thoroughly modern methods. kkgqmmuaZHU; zermeme HEP 20mm .. 100 .. MUSIC AND DRAMATIC ART ACTIVITIES The students of the School of Nlusic and Dramatics have been more active the past year than in any other time in the history of this school, probably the most beneficial and interesting feature being the regular Thursday night recitals. Here the students of Voice, Piano, Violin. Band, and the Drama, combined to make up a program at once educative and recreationaL special interest being taken in the four and eight hand numbers on the piano, given by the students of Doctor E. W. Chaffee. The University Chorus under the personal direction of Dean Hughes has made remarkable progress, among its other achievements being the conduct of the university Chapel exercises. During the year this body rendered the sacred cantata HTriumph of David by Dudley Buck, and the oratorio HMessiahyy by Handel. These diHicult musical numbers were rendered in a masterly style which was a credit to both students and instructors. Pleashg t0 the eye as well as to 'the car was HCinderella Dress Rehearsal , an Operetta given by the young ladies of the department under the direction of Inez Francisco Hughbi, teacher of voice. One of the best musical treats 0f the year was the joint recital given by NIme. Gardini, soprano, and luiss Edna Gansel, violinist. The latter is a student of Pro- fessor George Steinhaus and has become one of Americays most brilliant Violinists. yZ-l- has also marked an epoch in the progress. of the School of Dramatic Art, many of whose students have developed rare talent. This department gives a thorough course leading to the Bachelor of Oratory Degree and fits its graduates not only to fill positions on the concert stage and in the drama, but for the post of dramatic art teachers, for whom there is an ever growing demand. Each student is given individual instruction along those lines for which he or she shows the greatest adaptability, and under the direction of Mrs. E. W. Agar, P1ofessor of Expression, is presented in public recital at least once during the school year. These recitals, which take place in the university auditorium. are of inestin1a- ble value to the students of drama and are a great source of enjoyable entertainment to the general student body. In addition to the individual and class recitals, the students of this department have also produced several four and five act plays under the direction of Miss Edna Agar, who has gained an enviable reputation as a producer throughout the entire state. ' A series of one act plays were produced by this talented young lady toward the C1053 of the school year. These were beautifully costumed plays, including trage- dies, comedies, and period plays of the Seventeenth Century and Victorian eras. Par- ticular mention should be made here of Kliss Gertrude Pierce, the star of the Land of Hearts Desire , who played the most diHicult part with the rare feeling and understanding which promises her a very brilliant future in the drama. .. 102.. .. 103 .. :me: .r,:mzmT:Z; .. 104 .. ADAM P. LESI NSK Y Dirrrtm' THE l'N'lVERSITY BAND Another successful year is about to close for our University Band. lluch praise is due Director Adam P. Lesinsky and his thirty talented musicians for the diligent efforts they have put forth for the benefit of the student body. Their work will not be forgotten as it has been a part of our college career. VVith only a few hundred students from which to select his material, Director Lesinsky developed his members into a real group of music makers. As one night each week was devoted to practice, the organization progressed wonderfully. During 'the winter term the band rendered a splendid concert of first-class over- tures and selections. This concert was performed in a manner becoming to profes- sionals. Their assistance at every pep meeting, parade, varsity football, basketball and baseball game gave that necessary air of real school spirit. HWhether rain or shine, Regardless of time The band was always there? .. 105 ..

To many, a history is merely a chronological record of past events, however, to those Who have helped make that history, it is much mere. Their pleasures, pains, hopes, and ambitions have been inseparably woven into it, so in writing the history of the Class: of ,24, I can relate only the superficial happenings common to the whole class, leaving each one to live again, individually, those two short but happy years of his residence here. What memories we have of the Dean, of Muldoon, of Miss Rechenberg and the rest. As we look back, is any period likely to provide happier memories than the hours spent under these inspiring instructors? It is With keen regret that the Class of y24, having completed the two year course, must now depart at the time when its relations with the faculty and the student body have become closest. Two school years is a brief period of time, but time enough, however, to learn to love the institution which has given us so much. .. 110 .. ' HENRY T. FISHER .. 112 .. HENRY T. FISHER ACTING DEAN OF ENGINEERING Henry T. Fisher, Acting Dean of the Engineering Department, was born at Sioux City, Ioway on September 7, 1895. He was graduated from the Vineyard High School, Vineyard, New Jersey, in 1914. In the fall of 1915 he registered in the Civil Engineering Department of Valparaiso University and graduated with the class of 1918. Mr. Fisher, who served one year as a commissioned officer in the U. S. Army, is a man of broad experience. Immediately after the war, he, being desirous of acquiring the practical elements of engineering, entered the employ of the Universal Portland Cement Company, remaining with them over a year. His next post was Construction Engineer with the Decatur Bridge Company and the Decatur VVater Supply, serving twenty two months in all. Later, he designed sewage disposal systems for Holbrook, Warren, gV Van Proog, Sanitary Engineers. In the fall of 22 he was made Acting Dean of the Engineering Department of Valparaiso University. During this time, he has been ably assisted by Mr. R. N.

The profession today is one demanding a broad view as well as close application. The present day engineering student must be able, not only to grasp and evaluate the problems which may arise, but also to tackle them With such vision and energy as is possible in but few other professions. Valparaiso is equipped to turn out just this type of Engineer, and the results are best seen in the Valpo graduates who are holding responsible positions in their chosen fields in all parts of the world. The rod-men are just as active socially as they are in the classroom or field. The freshman banquet, followed by the Engineers Animal Prom are high spots in the social life of the University. In athletics they are also in the Van, having been well represented on the Varsity teams and in the Inter-departmental tournament. The Department boasts of a chapter of the American Association of Engineers, and are about to introduce a chapter of the American Society of Civil Engineers. These bodies give the Department an accredited standing among all engineers. Prominent technical men of other universities and industrial concerns visit these chapters regularly and keep them in touch with the latest developments and ex- periments. ' The Class of 2+, after four years of residence here, are now ready to step out into the world and enter upon their life work. We, the members, pledge ourselves never to forget the inspiring ideals of our beloved Alina liIater, Valparaiso University. demak QZEHEMw4m .wm: EZHCZE .116 ..

As a man and scholar he merits great praise, and it is to be hoped that the Law School may have the advantage of his leadership for some time to come. .. 121 .. SCHOOL LAW LAW DEPARTMENT The Law Department is in its forty-hfth year. It Was founded in 1879 by Mark L. DeMotte, under the name, Northern Indiana Law School. From the first this institution has been in the front rank of legal schools. Its methods have been moulded to ht the requirements of the ever changing times and conditions. The Law building has been remodeled, the Library greatly enlarged, the require- ments for admission gradually raised, and the case method adopted, and the curriculum greatly enriched by the addition of many new courses of instruction.' The Department has much to be proud of. ., It may boast of its splendid faculty, its extensive library, and its ability to show the large percentage of its graduates who have become successful practitioners, and of scores of graduates who have served as governors, judges of the Supreme Court in their respective states, and as member; of both Houses of Congress. Such a notable record is that of the Valparaiso Law Department. .. 123 .. ZEZmewE P2 g.

In accordance with the decision of the American Conference of Pharmaceutical Faculties the minimum course of study, beginning September, 1925, will belover a period of three years. This extension was necessitated by the many and diverse problems encountered by the modern pharmacist. The school was one of the first to note that a drug garden and plant laboratory are necessary adjuncts to a school of pharmacy. Besides furnishing colleges with crude drugs, it now enjoys the rare distinction of performing experiments for the Plant Pathology Section of the Department of Aggiculture. The past year has been one of creditable achievements for the Department, and with a larger attendance in view for next fall, the prospects for greater growth and development are indeed promising. .131 ..

Captain Lidgard issued a call for candidates and a large number responded. Gaetke, Roach, Rlartin, Grandgeorge, Battershell, Arres, Klitnick, Gomes, Blake, and VVolfson, coached by hCalddyty Cadwallader, and cap- tained by Lidgard, developed into a Winning team, which, in the course of the tournament, met and defeated every department in the University, Without once suffering a setback. The team had the unswerving support of the faculty and the entire department. Gaetke and Battershell are credited with the most counters for the Pharmics. When within striking distance of the cup, IWartin was injured and forced to retire. This was the hardest blow dealt the department, for NIartin was a thorn in the opponents, sides at all times. Roach proved himself a good center, and Grandgeorge and Lidgard held down the guards, positions exceptionally well. The Other men on the team were well drilled and could have substituted for any regular Without loss of teamwork. t .. 133 .. THE VALPARAISO PHARMACEUTICAL ASSOCIATION The Valparaiso Pharmaceutical Association had its inception in 1911, through the kindly oHices of the late Dean Timmons and two students whose names have not been recorded. It is patterned after the American Pharmaceutical Association, having for its object the perpetuity of the ideals of that organization. In keeping with its ethical nature, the meetings are given over to lectures by distinguished per- sonages in the pharmaceutical, medical, and chemical worlds, and to topics and late happenings pertaining to the profession. The outstanding event of the year was the Associationls inspection of the Eli Lilly Drug Klanufacturing Companyls plant at Indianapolis; The Association also takes upon itself the duty of carrying out the social functions of the School of Pharmacy. The Pharmic Dance, which is the most attractive of the school year, is managed by this body. The money derived from this source is used in enlarging the library and decorating classrooms. One of the pleasant social events given by the Association at the beginning of every fall quarter is the Pharmic Blixer. This first gathering inaugurates a spirit of co-operation and mutual help- fulness between all classes. The picnic of the Pharmacy Department at the Sand Dunes on Lake l'Iiehigan is the closing event of the year, an enjoyable trip re- membered by all. .. 134 .. NETTIE DOVVDELL WILLIAMS .. 136 ..

This department ranks with the foremost preparatory schools of the state, its work being accredited by the issuance of 'an equivalency certificate in 1913. i Valparaiso 05ers a preparatory course which is much better than the average schooI of this type. Thorough courses are offered in every branch of study and under the direction of a most capable faculty. The Preparatory Department draws students of all ages from every state in the Union, and even from many foreign countries. This cosmopolitan'atmosphere is conducive to the great traits of selhrehance, industry, and fidelity. s0 noticeable in her graduates, who are meeting with such unqualified success in the higher branches of learning. The class history for the year 1924 is especially replete with many notable achieVn ments which serve to place the Preparatory Department on a firm basis as a unit in the life of the university. Earnest students organized to such good advantage that this year the Prep Department has gained representation in the HRecord and on the advisory council of the Students Athletic Union. T0 its department and senior class organization and activities the students were never failing in their loyalty, a good example being the spirit with which the department supported'its entrant in the intra-mural basket ball tournament. The HYea PrepV could be heard even in the face of defeat, and it is such spirit which leads to the character building achieve- ments of which the Preparatory Department is justly proud. .. 139..

MCGARVEY, Allzlrtic DirertOr A history of the Preparatory Department wmild be incomplete without paying tribute to the fast quintet that so :1ny represented them in the recent basketball tour- nament. Though nosed out by the Pharmies in the final stage of the cup race, the Prep played fast, Clean basketball throughout the series and were forced to be reckoned with at any stage of the game. VVith only a short time to practice, Capt. Kaleel brought out his team against the speedy Engineers, and after four overtime periods the Purple and VVhite aggrega- tion came out on the short end of a 6-8 score in which was easily the best game of the entire tournament. The Wame served as an eve-o ener to the Prei bovs, who theiitturned and de- b . p i . , feated the Pre-IVIedies. Lawvers and A. Bis in uiek succession and in the crucial , v 3 ! game of the series, only succumbed to the Champion Pharmics in the last few minutes of play. Capt. Kaleel, who also acted as coach of the Purple and White warriors, was always breaking up the opposing plays from his .position at running- guard. Sacks and Duke proved themselves lightning forwards, and along with itChuek Thune, the pivot man of the squad, accounted for the Preps high scores. Nelson and Lasky . alternated at the baek-guard position and along with tiFritzy 7Aileissner, who took Kaleel's place after the latterys injury, presented a stone wall defense and saved the day on several occasions. Frank Auten, who acted as business manager of the team, deserves credit for raising the schedule of the Preps and always having his team on the floor at the proper time ' BIcGai-V'ey, departmental athletic director, was always on hand when his assis- tance was needed, and Trainer Severin kept his charges in the pink of condition, which counted so much toward the team s success. Next year's manager, Agen, intends to enter his team against Culver, St. Viators, St. Johns. and other aeade Hy teams, while for the present his idea is identical with that of the rest of his squad, which is HGet That Cup . .. 147 ..

H42 WILLIAM P. SHADOAN When William P. Shadoan arrived in Valparaiso last fall to assume charge of Athletics, our stock took a decided rise. It wasn't long yere this selection of an Athletic Director brought fame to the University. In the face of obstacles that would have turned a lesser man away, Shadoan stuekn and developed championship teams in football and basket-ball. llShadll, whose home is in Somerset, Kentucky, graduated from Somerset High School, where he starred in football with HBO lVIclVIillin and llRed Roberts. All three later became famous as Centre College stars. They entered college together, played side by side during their gridiron career, and established enviable reputations as students of good standing. VVhen America entered the Great VVar, Shadoan enlisted, was commissioned, and sent overseas as a First Lieutenant. VVhile there he saw a years service and played with American Army football teams, He was on Eddie Mahalfs crack squad and it was NIahan who characterized Shadoan as the best linesman he ever saw. Following this, he held the post of Assistant Coach at Centre. VVith such a background llShad was well qualihed for his Valparaiso berth. This was fully dem- onstrated by his development of a comparatively unknown squad into a nLittle Centre . He is our most valuable man and the news that he will be with us next year brings joy to our hearts and the satisfaction of knowing that Valpo will be repre- sented by formidable teams and dangerous contenders for honors in all sports. L. P. SCHERER L. P. SCHERER, JR. ASSISTANT DIRECTOR OF ATHLETICS When Valpo's athletic fans departed for various parts of the country last spring, it was hLouieh Scherer who alone remained and fostered his pet. While engaged in improving the athletic Field he met our new coach, Van. P. Shadoan. Shadoan's first move Was the selection of an assistant director 01' business mana- ger, and Scherer, with his knowledge of the quantity and condition of the equip- ment, the fall schedule, in addition to several seasonsy experience as a Varsity basket- ball star and sports writer, was the logical candidate. Being thus qualified, he proved 0f inestimable value to the Coach, the athletes, and the University. Providing for the comfort and care of the team while on tour, and arranging schedules, were some of the manifold duties that were delegated to Scherer, and, to quote a member of the team, HHe always came through . e Editor. .. 184 .. ..18:3 .. FOOTBALL While the opening of the football season failed to show a legion of stars on the field, interest ran high and confidence was regained with the appearance of Coach Shadoan. The confidence of the loyal fans was not misplaced, for the fame of the HIVIiracle ElevenH from the little town in Northern Indiana spread far and wide. It soon became known as the JThe Little Centre That Shad Built? It truly established a record to be proud of, and the Championship of the VVestern Inter-State Con- ference was the biggest of its accomplishments. With but four Varsity men from last years team to start with, prospects were a bit dull. A very small squad of green men, most of whom had classes until four or five oTclock daily, which well nigh eliminated practice, completed the crew. Dur- ing the entire season they had opportunity to scrimmage but once. Considering such disadvantages and the weights of the men who composed the team, they truly deserved the name hluiracle Eleven . The line was composed of men averaging one hundred sixty nine pounds, two of whom were playing their first football. The backfield averaged one hundred fifty six and were acclaimed for their blocking, tackling, and passing ability. iTOne of the best defensive backfields in the country , was the opinion of many college sport writers. This was the result of constant thought and effort on the coachTs part. The first game of the season was played at Western State Normal, at Kalamazoo, Klichigan, four days after school opened. With no opportunity for conditioning or developing team work, the front Valpo presented was the seasoxfs surprise. The lone marker of the game came when one of Kazods half backs picked up a Valpo fumble and dashed across the line. Although Valpo came out on the short end, the coach and friends were elated with the showing made. Hope ran high, and with a week of hard work behind them they journeyed to Des Moines,-Iowa, to meet the Des 7iWoines University outfit. With four minutes to go, a dispute, occasioned by decidedly poor sportmanship 0n the part of the games oHicials, brought the contest to a close. Thus ended an otherwise excellent game, the score being three to three. A week later, Y.NLC.A. College of Chicago journeyed here. Although the Y,y team put up a stiff battle they were hopelessly outclassed. At Chicago, the following Saturday, DePaul University was met, and downed. Real team work featured this game. The seasonTs record for high score against a collegiate opponent resulted from Home-Coming game, when Valpo smothered Lewis Institute to the tune of 110-0. The game was played after the annual parade, led by President Evans and Vice- President Bowman, and a flag raising, at which the President ofhciated. Great interest was aroused now when rumors began to come into camp about the powers of the LaCrosse State Normal team, of LaCrosse, VVisconsin. Rated .. 186 .. as a team second only to VVisconsin University, and having a record of winning every game on their own grounds, caused Valpo fans much concern. Before eight thousand people and under ideal conditions, the game began. It was modern football from start to finish. Both teams fought like demons, yet, with this intense spirit pre- vailing, not one unsportsmanlike act on the part of a man on either of the teams was to be seen. It was excellent football throughout and when Valpo emerged win- ner, it was knowing that they had won a mighty struggle. It seemed as if nothing could stop the Valpoites now. When the team set out for Bourbonnais, Illinois, to meet their ancient rivals, St. Viatorls, every one felt confident that they would bring back a victory. Blembers of the team were de- termined to overcome the jinx of the past two years. The extraordinary amount of interest in the game was manifested by a steady stream of students and towns- people into Kankakee. Straight, clean, hard football, endurance, and gripping ma- chine-like precision featured this game. The game ended 10-7, with Viatorls on the short end. This was the hardest fought contest of the year, and the victory that gave Valpo the Western Inter-State Conference Championship. DeHance College, of Defiance, Ohio, cancelled their game, thus giving our over- worked and injured team time to rest and recuperate. On Thanksgiving day, playing knee deep in mud and water, the University of Dubuque battled Shad's crew to a scoreless tie. Both teams were slowed up by the bad condition of the gridiron, but it was a worthy fight for the two thousand loyal fans who braved the cold and rain to cheer them on. The teams were equal, both lines were as stone wall defenses, but little real football could be played. 187.. H. H. HARRIS, Ctmtaim Ilalflmvl'. HBealliCH, as he is familiarly known. had the misfor- tune to receive an injury early in the season which pre- vented him from taking part in several games. He came back strong during the latter part of the season, and his brainy geiieralship led his team to the Conference Cham- pimlship. OSCAR CLOSE. Q Imrfrrlmvk. Throughout the entire season, HLefty never missed a second of play. His quick thinking, speedy work. and con- sistent playing gave his team-mates the needed stimulus 011 many occasions. He handled the passing end of the game also and his passes were ever accurate and sure. A clean. Snappy player. ROY VVHITE, Fullback Roy enjoyed personal contact, and his happiest moments were those when he was carrying the ball through the line. His excellent punting and terrific line-plunging in- variably gained ground and had much to do with the suc- cess of Valpoys Championship team. VALPO-LEVVIS HOMECOMING . INS, ,.

It was a marvel the way llSurf skirt- ed the ends, dashed down the field, and over the line for a touchdown. Undoubtedly the fastest man ever in a Valpo uniform. FRED SP U RGEON. llalfbad: VVhen the ball was within striking distance of the op- ponents' goal, and a drop-kick 0r place-kick was all that was needed to win the game, it was HSpurge who was called upon to do the trick. His was the lledueated toe,, and it was a rare occasion indeed, when he failed to put it over. RI. G. ANDERSON, End. On the receiving end of the game was Andy. Nlany times he plucked the oval out of his opponents' hands and gained yardage for Valpo. A consistent, hard working player, on defensive as well as offensive. Andyls last year, and he leaves a place that is going to be hard to fill with as clean, sincere, and manly spirited athlete as he. .. 190 .. GI LRERT JAC Ksox, Ilalfbarln HJackH was a whiz when it came to open held running and hard hitting line. plunging. A reliable defensive and offensive player, noted for timely interceptions. XVALTER HILTPOLD. Eml. Hippy was always on deck and was always down there covering punts. He was there on the receiving end too. A hard, clean, consistent fighter. JOHN O. COOK, TarHr. Jack was ever in the game; fighting, bucking, and plunging as he never did before. A few broken bones in his leg wasnft enough to keep him out of the last thirty min- utes of play in the Des NIoines game. This spirit gave the boys the necessary punch to put it across in every game. VVith Jackhs going, one of the best linesmen in the NIiddle XVest leaves Valpo this year. . 191 .. VERNON JAMISON, Guard. Playing his first year of college football, Jamison was considered one of the best guards in the state. Seldom did they break through his part of the line. A low, hard hit- ter, and a fierce taekler who was always sure of his man. VVe expect great things of him next season. GILBRT POWELL, Guard. NIany a time did he break through the line and throw his rival for a loss. He thus earned the reputation of being the lineis mainstay. Always a hard tackler and a sticker. EARL SCOTT, Guard. Scotty, though light for a line position, proved to be a tower of strength. Usually quiet and unassuming, he proved to be the most belligerent man in the line and much credit goes to him for our successes. He was a conscien- tious and reliable athlete. .. 192 .. DOWNING LA CROSSE PETER CHRISTIANSEN, Guard. Pete was always in there and fighting that fight that brought home the Conference bacon. Pete was elected to lead the 1925 squad. A capable, conscientious leader, pos- sessing the brains and courage of a great general. Under his direction. the Valpo squad Will certainly be a winner. ADDISON SMITH, Tatf'le. hSpud . otherwise known as HKewpiefh was a young giant and hard tighter. A superman in strength and al- ways ready to do his best for Valpo. A valuable and trustworthy player. OLn'ER DYCH 1-: Center. Dyche, by his ability to pass the ball accurately, along with his grit and determination, developed into one of the best centers in the state. The fighting Texan always had the pep and battled from beginning to end. . 194 . TO THE MEN WHO HOLD THE LINE Oh, the full back bows to the cheering crowd, And the halves and quarter, too. And praise ascends on the lucky ends Who fight for the brown and gold. T0 none so great do I dedicate This poor little verse of mine, But herels to those in the fighting rows, To the men who hold the line. You watch the game and you all exclaim, HJust look at that fellow run, And youlll shout and roar when the struggle's oler That the game was only won But the full backls pluck in that splendid buck That carried him to the goal. But you doxft see fit to think a bit Of the men who made the hole. Yes, the full back has his meed of thanks And the Hquarter did it all , And the halves are praised and a voice is raised For the man who took the ball. Now take your cup and H11 it up To the brim with dancing wine, A toast to those in the fighting rows, To the men Who hold the line. BILL DAWSON, Iiml. The Kazoo Normal game was his jinx. He had the misfortune to nurse a broken shoulder bone after the first half. The way he got down under punts was a marvel, and the little while he was in the game, won a place in the hearts of the fans. Bill managed to recover sufficiently to get in the last game of the season and played a stellar role. Alon x ANDERSON, Halflmrlx Although a midget, Antlerson had the stuff and became a valuable man to the squad. His speed and cleverness won him a place in the hearts of many Valpoites. BILL KALEEI, In Kaleel, the coach had a conscientious and strong football man. He was always on the job and ready to do his best. Next year should find him holding down :1 regularys berth. ..196.

A-W q SUMMARY VVith Characteristic team work, the team Won every game after their defeat at Des NIoinesescoring 225 points against their opponents, 35. The yardage gained by punting was always large, and forward passes, though rarely used, accounted for considerable gains. This, coupled with a striking ability to intercept forwards, worked to their advantage on numerous occasions. Having been instilled with the clean fighting tactics one sees only at Centre College, the men were hard trainers who knew that a Clean body and mind will conquer all things. Thanks to the remarkable ability of Shadoan, and the untiring efforts of his brilliant squad, our team, by their meritorious achievements brought fame to old Valpo and placed her again in the front rank of athletic leaders.

THE VICTORY FIVE,S SEASON A twenty-eigh't game schedule which started after the Xmas holidays was the lineup the Valpo squad faced this season. Omitting the Big Ten, the fastest teams of the R'Iiddle VVest were included in' this schedule. Under the leadership of Captain Anderson, the team emerged Victorious in twen- ty-four contests, twenty-three of which were consecutive wins. Their losses totalled four. As far as collegiate basketball records show, this is the greatest number of consecutive Victories ever piled up in one season. The salient feature of the season was that the same five men performed in also every minute of each game. This remarkable display of endurance was the result of a hard training routine followed by the squad. Every man on the team was a hard, clean fighter, and ever ready to put forth his best efforts. The manner in which they outwitted and outmaneuvered their opponents was indeed commendable. Valpo started her season by defeating Baden Hall, VVheaton College, and DePaul University. Next came the momentous southern trip. On the first night they met and defeated the National Y. NI.C.A. Champions, at Cincinnati. Kentucky VVes- Ieyan followed, and they tumbled to a 38-21 count. The next tilt was with the HPrayin' Colonels , iiRedh Roberts officiating. This game developed into the fastest ever witnessed at Centre. The curtain dropped with Valpo on the long end of a 33-27 score. .. 201 .. After easily disposing of the Kentucky State Normal, the Victory Five opposed and downed the University of Louisville. This completed their first trip, having won five games in as many nights. Three games at home followed and were added to the unbroken string of Vic- tories. Then came the four-day western trip, which netted four more. TWO Cone ference teams were met on this tour and both fell before the onslaught of the Val- poites. Upon their return the conquerors were given a rousing welcome by the students and townspeople. Six real treats at home were next in order; Hope, Luther, Adrian, St. Viator. and Columbia College, appeared here and were retired only after forty minutes of gruel- ling play. Kalamazoo Normal was the last to take the count on the local Hoor. VVith a phenomenal achievement of twenty-three successive triumphs, the Victory five journeyed to St. Viatorys, Where they received their first set-back 0f the season. Of the remaining five games, three were won. So ended Valpds basketball season. VVith the VVestern Inter-state Conference Championship, and an unequaled record in their possession, they certainly performed excellently. .. 202.. u MILLARD G. ANDERSON HAndy , as he is familiarly known. has been a Valpo star for the past three years. As he is leaving us this year, we think it proper that this little honor be thrust upon him. He came to us in 1921, and by his clean and conscientious fighting spirit, won for himself a place in the hearts of the student body, the faculty, and the townspeow ple. No matter what the score might indicate, Andy could be depended upon to put forth his best. On many occasions it was this persistent and determined spirit to stick, that brought home the victories for Valpo. It wasnyt long after his arrival here that his prowess became apparent. He captained the basketball team during the 1921-22 season, his team winning fifteen out of twenty-two games played. Again in the season of 1923-24 he was elected to lead the squad. It is needless to dwell on his record; one of twenty-three consecutive victories which received nation-Wide publicity. On the gridiron he played end and did most of the punting and passing. There is always one sport that hts one man better than any other. and so it is with Andy. For the past three years he held down the catching job on Valpds baseball teams .and around him champion teams have been built. The aggregation he led in 1922 came thru With a very good record, and in 1923 he led the team to the Conference Championship, winning nine out of ten games. In class, as well as in the field, he ranked among the leaders and on many oc- casions received the highest grade. This year he served as president of 'the senior class of engineers. In going, he leaves behind a host of friends who honor and re- spect him, and who will always remember him as Valpds premier athlete. .. 203 .. ANDERSON, M. CL, Comma Long, rangy,--zm ideal center. A fast, consistent play- er; second in number of points scored; a reliable man on defense and offense; and a lover of clean sportsmanship. Around Andy the Victory Five was built. He led the squad and proved himself a leader among loaders. HARRIS. H. H.. Forward. Being a dribbler of exceptional ability and :1 whirlwind 0n the Hoar, HBeanie was forcnmst in the offensive at- tacks and ranked as high scorer in the Conference. SCOTT, EARL, G 11 11rd. HScottyyy was a demon on the court. He guarded Val- p07s goal during the entire season and was as dependable a man as the team boasts. Extricating his team-mates from tight situations and repulsing attacks were his specialties. He was elected to lead the 1924-25 Victory Five and a better 01' wiser choice could not have been made. The resolve and ability to Eght on when the last atom of strength was seemingly gone, won him this honored place. VVith him in command we predict another successful sea- son for the squad. . 204 .. wVAA -H- MEIJV mMHZFYCw 336$.ka .. 205 .. CAIHVAILADER. ROBERT. For-u'm'd. As Harris, running mate. none could have fitted as well as HCaddy . A fast, shifty Hoorman whose bewildering tactics proved the determining factor in many games. H 1 LTPOLD. WALTER, Guard. Vthn a basket was all that was needed to win a game, uHippy could usually be depended upon to get it. He was a fast, aggressive player, who stood the pace with the best 011 the court. FLORENCE, D1: K E, Forward. Though a forward, Florence was at home in any posi- tion on the squad. Speed and an uncanny basket eye were his main points. .206 .. Will V. U.

C. A. 41 .. 21'0 .. BASEBALL Ere Old King Winter had an opportunity to store away his tools, baseball practice in the Gym became the schedule. Out-door work was impossible until the day of the first game, but Capt. Anderson and his men were eager to enter the fray and determined to make it a Valpo Victory, The toughest baseball schedule in the history of Valpo athletics was arranged, and when the team came thru with ten victories out of eleven games played, it was unanimously agreed that the y23 nine was the best ever developed here. The record was all the more phenomenal, when considering the comparatively short time availa- ble to round the Inen into such form, that the exhibitions made in the first two 01' three contests far excelled any game of the previous year. Rest of all, tho, the play- ing continued to improve. and altho some very strong teams were included in the schedule. only one defeat was suffered. This was by the NIichigan Aggie team'at Lansing. but later, we defeated them at the University Park. Capt. Anderson guided the team thruout the season, and it was owing to his steady, reliable, and consistent work behind the hat that this lWCnder Teamy was developed. He was also an able man with the stick. Norton was utility catcher, always performing well at the bat, and able to take care of the catching position when called upon. The pitching staff included Graham, Adams, NIartinson, Gilpin, Hiltpold, and Gum. Graham easily proved himself the ace of the staff; his mound work was highly praised thruout this section by the fans, his team-mates, and various sporting Writers. Adams left early in the season, but Hiltpold, Gilpin, Martinson. and Gum held down the Hnging end with a zest and spirit that brought home the victories. Spurgeon, Simonds. Ed Johnson, Riddle, and lVIeloy held down infield positions. Spurgeon was probably the best infielder, displaying uncanny ability in nabbing the hot ones and pegging over to first. VVhen it came to batting, all the men men- tioned in this group were real Sluggers. Sullivan. Norton, Harris, NIarshall, Hiltpold, and Kaleel worked in the outfield. Their performance at all times was excellent. The first game of the season resulted in a slugging match, Valpo coming out on the long end of the count against the Notre Dame Freshmen. Sgiurgeonls homer with two on gave the fans an interesting moment in which to vent their stored up feelings. The K'Iiehigan Aggie College Came next, but only after a ninth-inning rally was Valpo able to forge t0 the front. This game, in all probability, gave us our strongest opponents on the schedule, for they were the only team to give us any trouble during the whole season. The first game away from home proved to be :1 walk-away. NIt. NIorris College was swamped, and Hiltpold was credited with fifteen strike-outs. Anderson and Spurgeon had a big day at the bat. .. 211 .. The Columbia College-Valpo game required eleven innings to determine the better nine. Graham displayed perfect form and had the game salted away several times, but Old Klan Luck held out on him a bit. The fifth straight victory for Valpo was the Loyola University game at Chicago the following Tuesday. At the end of the eighth inning the score stood 6-5 with Loyola, but by another ninth inning rally, the near defeat was turned to a Victory. The following Saturday at the University Park, Valpo smothered the same team, 13-4. The game with Kalamazoo Normal was simply a sequel to the Loyola game. The most interesting feature was how far and how often the Valpo men could hit. Sixteen hits were made, with Ed johnson leading the list with five. The game ended 15-6. Graham held Kalamazoo Normal, at Kalamazoo, to three hits and pulled in an- other victory. Good Helding and hitting 011 the part of the Valpo team were features of the game. On the following day, at Lansing. NIichigan, we met our first and only defeat. The 7Alichigan Aggie team, with ten hits and their pitcher working in fine form, gleaned ten runs and held us to five. Great was the rejoicing 011 College Hill the following Thursday, for the Valpo team wiped our ancient rival, St. Viator, off the map, as it were. A 9-1 victory, the largest score piled up on the Saints in years. Graham pitched his best game of the season, allowing the Illinois team four hits, and making p055ib1e the first Victory over St. Viatork in several years. The last game on the 1923 schedule brought the Y. hI.C.Aa College team of Chicago to University Park. Hiltpold pitched the entire game and made a name for himself among the fans. An 8-5, Victory was a fitting ClOSC t0 the season. It was a baseball season of which every Valpo student might feel justly proud, and one which will long be remembered in the history of the University. 21me MAzwmmwawm mm: TENNIS CLI'B OFFICERS AND TROPHIES PROF.

TENNIS For several years Valparaiso University took part in only three intercollegiate games, namely, football, basketball, and baseball. But in 1923 she advanced a step farther in 'the athletic realm by entering a team in the intercollegiate tennis contests. The team was composed of members recruited from the tennis club of the University. The first match was played when Lake Forest came to meet the Valpo team. The opposing teams were well balanced, being composed of men experienced in the game. However, Valpo men came out victorious, having won two out of three matches. If! The second team to come was Crane College, who had defeated'trseveral Chicago schools. In spite of this, Crane had to fight hard to win three out of five. The third contest was between Kliehigan Aggies and Valpo. It was the fastest match of the season; the contending teams having developed greatly as a result of constant encounters with different teams of the Middle West. There were six match- es played, four singles and two doubles. Of these the Brown and Gold won both doubles and one single. Rain forced a cancellation of the fourth game, which was to take place at Lake Forest. The last match was held on the excellent courts of the South Side Tennis Club of Chicago, the most aristocratic club of its kind in the city. Here they snatched four matches out of five played. ' It can, from the foregoing, be seen that the first tennis team of this University was a Victorious one, victorious in that out of eighteen matches, ten were won. .. 215 .. iii :zEv. .m .ELM .FTEM DEF: 35.95;: 4:95.22 :EEw 555C itmeQ Janina, ??CEC .EtEEZEHQ 4:59 5395ch 53c; 3.35:7! d::mC 593M315 5?:ng Utxxth 5 1:4 .xrttrim 5.. ..2N GIRLSl BASKETBALL TEAM The Valpo GirlsY Basketball Team started the season with the election of Nliss Margaret Smith, captain, and Bliss A1111 Ballegoyen, business manager. Robert Cadwallader was chosen as coach. The team had a fairly successful season considering the circumstances. During a part of the season they were handicapped in not being able to obtain an adequate number of practice hours at the gym, and at the end of the fall term they lost several of their players through graduation. Although the season did not bring marked success for which the girls had hoped, all of them played hard and are to be con- gratulated 0n the pep and enthusiasm they displayed throughout the entire season. The scheduleythis year consisted of games with the following teams: They played Hammond Betz Girls at Hammond, and a return game here; they also encountered Chicago Heights, closing the season by playing East Chicago Girls here. A number of practice games were played at the beginning of the season. Captain llPeng led the team in a fine fashion and by her cooperation and snappy playing proved her ability as a real leader. She was always on deck and ready to aid in any activity which was undertaken. NIiss Ann Ballegoyen, who was manager of the team, deserves much credit for her conscientious and industrious interest concerning the team during the season, and for the games played. NIuch credit is also due to Coach llCaddy Cadwallader, who, in spite of his own work on the Valpo Victory Five, devoted a great deal of time to bringing VVomenTs Athletics t0 the fore. ' Pictures of two of Valpols most capable players, Nellie Record and NIae Tyle, do not appear in the group due to the fact that these players entered training after the picture had been taken. Both girls were with the team the greater part of the season, and proved themselves valuable because of their ability to break up the opponents, plays and to get the ball to llStay put . .

THE TORCH A student newspaper has two vitally important functions: It must he a large factor in stimulating school spirit, and it must serve as the only medium through which the outside world can form an opinion of the student body and student activiv ties. The purpose of the Torch staff during the school year 1923-24- has been to publish each week the kind of paper which would best serve the University in these two ways. An honest endeavor has been made to present accurately and completely the news of every student activity and every outside event which would be of general interest to the student body. Special issues have been devoted to Valpoys victorious athletic teams, and, from time to time, emphasis has been placed upon other activities and organizations which were working for the betterment of HOur Valpo . In addition to news, the paper has contained discussions and other features of educational value, also a moderate amount of Wholesome entertaining humor. Those who served in their respective positions 011 the staff at least two quar- ters during the year were: ELWIN E. MCCRAY Editor RICHARD DOWNWARD AVERY B.

Business Illmmgpr DISABLED AMERICAN VETERANS OF THE WORLD WAR Old Valpo has long been famous for fostering the spirit of democracy as the best American mind understands it, and this volume would be incomplete without due recognition of those, who, by untold sacrifice were the protectors and saviors of these ideals, the D. A. V35. A Chapter of the Disabled American Veterans of the. VVOI'Id VVar was organized here September 1, 1921. The local post is afhliated with the national organization which aims to care for and protect the interests of the veterans during their period of rehabilitative training. The Valparaiso Chapter began with a Charter membership of fifteen, and in- creased by leaps and bounds until it numbered well over four hundred. Because of its many helpful and constructive activities, both social and academic, this organization has been a great asset to the university in general and remains so despite the fact that, owing to the completion of their courses, the membership has fallen Off to the few men listed below. During the past year the chapter has been especiaHy active, their Blasquerade Ball during the winter term being one of the best entertainments 0f the school year. In addition to this no national holiday passes that the former soldiers do not play a prominent part in its celebration. The University feels more than proud of these Inen who gave so much in their country's cause. The list of active members at the present time is as follows: Grover White Frank 1V. Barnes Ivan T. Linstrom Silas Buchannon Peter D. Guclfo Harold S. Deacon Charles H. Hudson Paul C. Hayes John Rolinc Steve Juvena John H. Krick Frank G. Shaver Harry R.

Rome attained the zenith of her power and bequeathed to posterity the memorable achievements of great warriors, subtle philosophers, and renowned jurors, because of her superb organization of society. In like manner, the greatest states of all ages have been the greatest organizers. It being evident that class spirit could be developed and worthy undertakings be achieved only through organization, lV'Irs. Florence Birkholz, Dean of Latin, spon- sored the formation of the University Latin, Club in the spring of 1922. The post of President was filled by lV'lr. I. j. NIcGuire, whose great foresight and executive ability was of inestimable value to the new club. The fortunes of the Latin Club were next entrusted' to lVIr. Harold Strickland, who, perhaps more than any other executive, served to place the club in the enviable position it now holds among the Various student organizations. It was during his able administration that the Latin Club had Charge of conducting the University Chapel and it was he who instituted such notable undertakings as the annual picnic to the famous Sand Dunes at Waverly Beach, the rollicking trips to Sagerls lake, and other achievements, which have served as a precedent to many of his successors. Great credit is due to President Frank Simmons, who has had no inconsiderable part in the making of that fine record, of which the Latin department can justly be proud; and also to the other chief executives, such as August Bucci, Sophia Engle- heart, and the present incumbent, lVilliam C. Kaleel, who has ably carried on the work of his predecessors. During the winter of 1924 the comedy, HHonor Bright , under the direction of Edna Agar, was presented at the Premier Theatre. The organization takes this opportunity to render their thanks to NIiSS Agar and the talented cast, who added to their proud record in staging one of the best productions ever witnessed in Valparaiso. While we point with considerable pride to the many things we have accom- plished, yet we feel that with a little more effort we could have done much more; and, with the spirit of HLet the dead past bury its dead , we direct our vision to the future in contemplation of still greater achievement. Though fortunate in being able to secure such valuable executive material, the Latin Club can be safely said to one its growth and success to the untiring efforts of its Honorary President and worthy Patrorless lllrs. Florence Belle Birkholz, whose magnetic personality and devotion to the cause has been an inspiration to the membership at all times; To her, for inc-ulcating that spirit of remarkable industry and hdelitbwhich has placed the Latin Club among the foremost organizations of College Hill, is this, the Latin Section, respectfully dedicated. .. 227 ..

THE UNIVERSITY DEBATERS Valparaiso University is a member of the Indiana Inter-Collegiate Debating League, which has a membership of fourteen Colleges and Universities. Each year the League conducts two series of debates. In the first series the afhrmative teams debate at home on the same evening that the negative teams are away from home. In the second, the negative teams remain at home and the aHirmative teams go on tour. The question debated this year was :e'IIResolved: That the Federal Government should enact Legislation providing for the compulsory judical settlement of disputes between employers and employees in the coal and railroad industries; constitutionality waivedfy Valparaiso was represented by the following: . AFFIRMATIVE Perry H. NIurphy ........................................ t. .' ..... Captain J. Raymond Powell John C; Labata John A. Light .............. . ................................... A lternate N EGATIVE Beatty R. Julian ................................................ Captain Carl A. Huebner Charles VV. Hughes A. L. Farr .................................................... dlternate The critic system, which provides one salaried judge, was the one decided upon this year. However, each triangle was left free to select any method whichwould be agreeable to all. In the Valparaiso-Franklin debate at Valparaiso the three judge system was de- eided upon and a unanimous decision was rendered in favor of the home team. On the same night the Indiana Central-Valparaiso debate at Indianapolis was decided in favor of the opposing aHirmative team. In the second series, the State Normal-IIePauw-Valparaiso triangle adhered to the one judge plan. In the DePauw-Valparaiso debate at Valparaiso the decision was given to the affirmative, and the Valpariso-State NoVnial debate at Terre Haute was decided in favor of the negative. Great credit is due to NIrs. Eastman for the splendid manner in which she coached the teams, her efforts contributing very much to their successful season. Still greater development in forensics is anticipated for 1925. HESPERIA LITERARY SOCIETY Great oaks from little acorns grow,U has no where been better demonstrated than in the history of Hesperia Literary Society. From its humble beginning in the rooms of a student Who desired'to develop his histrionic talents, it has grown by leaps and bounds into an organization which numbers among its large ,membership the foremost minds in the University, and no organization has had, or Will have, more to do With the development of the arts and allied branches of cultured thought than Hesperia. . Shortly after its inception, it was decided to draw up a constitution, add to the membership, and secure suitable club rooms for its business meetings and enter- tainments. The fundamental principles and purposes of the society, as set forth in its con- stitution were: That the society should adopt as its name, Hesperia, 4 meaning llEvening Star of the West ; that its three-fold purpose should be to'develop talent in expression, to foster interest in such subjects as literature, art, history, and science, and to maintain the bonds of democratic fellowship, which, reaching into the future, should keep alive in each member, the inspiring ideals of his Alma Mater. The Society meets every week in its club rooms in the Lembke Building, where programs covering the field of higher learning in all its phases are' rendered by some of its talented members. It is the desire of all members that other literary socie- ties be formed on the Hill, so that next year will see several organizations working together to bring about advancement along literary lines. This Will help to carry out such worthy undertakings as intra-mural debates and other educative contests as well as the foundation of a student art museum. The great principle of Hesperia is identical with that of old Valpo herself, in that it embodies the spirit of democracy, which manifests itself in 'the freedom of thought kept within the reasonable bounds of moral and spiritual restraint. It is only in this way that the great human'izing inHuences of such bodies Will be perpet- uated, and it is these same principles which will, in turn, serve to perpetuate our be- loved institution and such loyal organizations as Hesperia Literary Society. .. 233.. 234 VALPARAISO STUDENTS, ATHLETIC UNION The Valparaiso University Students, Athletic Union is a well established and well founded organiiation which serves in the promotion of social activities, and as- sists in the establishment of higher standards, morally, physically, mentally, and spir- itually, in our intercollegiate athletic contests. Aside from fostering every movement to give our student body many delightful social advantages, it is, in great part; responsible for our great 'rise in the athletic world. It was solely through the initiative of the Students, Union that we have our present coach, NIL William P. Shadoan. It is with pride, and not with regret, that the Union paid nearly half of our coach,s salary for the year. It was with no reluctance thatswe accepted this obligation because the possibilities were in evidence, and now, we are the proud possessors of a great reality a reality that will manifest itsellC in future years with other pleasant reminiscences of our years at Valparaiso University. Professor 1V1. E. Zimmerman, faculty adviser, and general manager 'of the Stu- dents Union, was ably assisted by those who served as oHicers as follows: Vernon C. llossman, President; John S. Wilson, Vice-President;'Harry M Orders, See- retary and Treasurer; and the Advisory Board, consisting of Frank VV. Barnes, Sam Ennis, VVilliarn Hall, Ralph-Lidgard, Paul E. Nelson and Saul Wolfson. The Students, Union is only four years old. If its growth continues at the same rate at which it has been growing since its founding, we shall soon have a Valparaiso Union Building, which is one of its futUre aspirations. .. 235 ..

He was firing questions in a somewhat fiery way at the members of the class, all of whom had red hair. HI may look hard, but you get down under my skin, and Ilm as soft as a baby , he thundered as he threw bits of wheat around the room and made a rye face. . . I did not want to chat him so asked him if I could stay around and get his ideas on farming. uI would just as leaf you stalk around the room , said he, running his fingers through his hair, which looked just like a Wheat field in a wind storm. uI concede that the practice of fall seeding should supersede spring sowing , he said, breaking the pun somewhat seedily, and gently tossing corneobs at a student of twenty summers and fifteen winters thaving spent five winters in the sunny land of Floridal I concluded that he perhaps knew something about agronomy if he would only open his mooth IFrenCh for mouthl, but that he was trifling with me. I left him as he was, sitting in a sitting posture and singing the old folk-songa HEvery morning I count the beads, And then I goes out and plants the seeds; Spring is coming yet no doubt. IColloquial for undoubtedlyl. .. 247 .. PROFESSOR SCHICKS HGood afternoon, Protw. I greeted him in my most affable manner. HSit down and make yourself comfortable , he responded, offering me a cigar and a Police Gazette. HMay I ask, what are your views on the League of Nations ? HVVell I can only repeat the inevitable conclusions which I have so often VOICCd in my lectures. If humanity has been struggling upward all these centuries only to be confounded in a maelstrom of incoherent utterances concerning alleged altu:ism, without any discernable evidences of results obtained or obtainable, then human achievement is a popular myth, with nothing of substantiality to establish its existence. HThat is very truell, I answered, concurring in everything he said. HFurther, the problem is of particular importance to you and your generation, venturing upon the threshold of adolescence, because it is upon the unborn peoples that the burden will of necessity resolve itself. All that tread this terrestrial sphere are but a handful to the tribes that slumber in its bosom; 2111in in like manner, the myriad peoples yet to live, move and have their being, defy the utmost reaches of phantasmagoricalimaginativenessy finite or hypermundane . HNo room for argument there, said I, getting into the spirit of the thing. HHave I explained the proposition satisfactorily ? uBeyond my fondest hopes, Prof. I thank you immensely. In fact, Ilm much obliged to you. I wish to express my thanks. I-ereIlm very much obliged . HThatys all right, young man. Ilm always glad to accommodate my friends in any way that I can . He was the very picture of courtesy. Courteously he helped me on with my coat ,with my rubbers, my surtout, my cap, my tam-oy-shanter and my cape. Coure teously he assisted me out the door; and courteously he shut the door after me. With equal courtesy I walked away. DEAN FISHER I rolled into his otlice 011 my hands and feet disguised as an automobile. HHigh ho , I continued, having said nothing so far. IIYou look like an auto, darn it , said he aware of the fact that he had the hot end of his Cigarette in his mouth. uWell I ought to, Fisher, if my opinion counts for aught , raising each one of my shoulders and sitting on the ottoman. HIt is either raining or it is not raining, he said winking his eye towards me. UYou bet thatys rightly, I agreed. HAnd it is raining; therefore its not raining said he becoming deaf and dumb. I should live so long , said I, showing that I understood his technical terms. HWell then what are you arguing about, he persuaded excellently. I thought to catch him with some philosophical question so I said HWhen was Napoleon born? He did not answer immediately, and then I discovered why-he was not even in the room. .. 248 .. PROFESSOR PAITL SMITH I had heard so much of Prof. Smith that his name had become a byword. I sauntered into his office at a half gallop and broke into a trot. HGood morning, sir , I whinneyed. HYou bet it 1'53, said he, rustling slightly. HCan you answer a few questions for me ?,, I asked interrogatively. IISure said he loquaciously as he saw the point of the joke. ' nWhat kind of a necktie do you like best? I purred. f- iHA four in hand is worth two in the bush, said he, quoting Scripture. I thought if he was going to be jocose I would be jackass, so I mumbled, HDid 3 A 1, i 5' you ever was you can you should you have beenl,? IINOX, said he passing the question off silently. HVVhen you were in England did you see the British IsleIl? UIsle say I did, he answered pointedly. Puns have always been of utmost distaste to me. lVIy old negro Inammy used to croou to me, ulVIen who make puns are like wanton boys who put coppers on the railroad tracks,y I said to him, HVVhy Was Pharaohls daughter like a banker ? HWhy , said he attempting to answer my question. HBecause she found a little prophet in the rushes on the bank . I went out on my bicycle, making impersonations of Lincoln. PROFESSOR HUMPHREY I wandered into the oflice of the iloa-accountant in order to account for some things I had heard about his course. The professor was completely surrounded by ink bottles and quill pensaso com- pletely in fact that I could see nothing of him. I noted that he had a nice white suit on, so I spoke of it. uProfessor Humphrey , said I, HI hear that you only give two credits for ac- counting A. No. I. UIf you dorft like it, get out , he bristled. I have heard , said I, Hthat 90 per cent of your classes are llunked if for no other reason than their marks are below 50h.

IIVVould you just as- V UYou are an ass , said he, tearing his hankerchief into twenty pieces, each exactly the same color. HOh, get out , I said ,coyly. HYou get out of here , he whispered scarcely above a whisper. Having gotten all the information I obtained, I put on my hat for about an hour and went off contralting opii from the Grieg. .. 249 ..

He was dreaming. Great powerful dreams. A gentle snore broke forth. I had one question I burned to ask him. I wanted to know where he bought his neekties. But instead, I tiptoed out of the Presence. DEAN NEET His nostrils quivered as the aroma of the sheep ascended through the planks of his manor house on its way to high heaven. He drank in the almost visible odor in great gulps, the while he stroked his beard which was fashioned out of the finest Peruvian sheep skin. HI hear you speak to them in your own language, Professor Neet , I said. IlBaa-aaII he siposted with his guttural Teutonic playfulness. nI like not to shop talk , he said balefully. I uLamb shop, so to speak,,, said I copying his words into my note book. Baa-aa, mutton head , he replied picking up .a toothpick fashioned from the hoof of a ewe and excavating his bicuspids daintly. IIDon't ram that down your throat , I said dodging behind a manger in time to escape the pitchfork which he tried to put into my vest pocket. HAnd, don,t try to pull the wool over my eyes. Aber-aber-aberah he shouted struggling for breath. But me no buts, professor, said I, and left him piling his hair on the table in neat piles. .. 250 .. DEAN BOWMAN uGo right in , said the stenographer. HHels not busy . I grasped the knob firmly, and threw open the door. t The great man was gazing intently at a list of alleged malefactors, a look of I Msupreme sadness in his eyes. He did not even notice me. . llI always play fair with the boys, but they just will get themselves kicked outll, he muttered to himself. uPardon me, Dean Bowmana He looked up quickly. llWellm he' chuckled in his gruff, good natured way, HVVhatlll it bel'? Why, Iyd like to know what you think about gambling in fraternity houses . HPersonally I think its a good thing. It keeps the boys at home, out of mischiet, and away from the malign influence of the sororities. It also teaches them good sportmanship, and makes them appreciate home life. HYou know, Mr. Bowman, I had no idea you felt this way about it . IlVVell, I was once a boy myself , said he, nudging me in the ribs. HYes, so were we all , I sighed wistfully, a truant tear glistening on my cheek. Looking into his sympathetic eyes, I knew that he understood. I also under- stood-that it was time to go. Exit. PROFESSOR B. F. WILLIAMS The poet sat in his chair, his hair sticking out in all directions as any great poet,s mustJ He was reading Doris Blakeys column in the Tribune. HGood morning, Mr. Williams . Oh, hello. AinT you a little early? Have a seat. Any of them Chairs yll doll. HThanks. Now, professor, I would like to get your Views on modern poetry . llWell, its this way. I ainlt yspecially interested in none of these modern poets, being as I,ve figured that there ainlt any great poets to speak of. You may have saw in the Torch that 1,111 calculated to be purty good, but of course I wouldnlt say so. If the world understood me, I might get all that was cominl. Anyhow, IIll take care 0, myself, and if they don,t like it they can lump it . HThat is very true , I answered sadly, and I must confess, with a lump in my throat. Well anything else youid like to knowll? I1N0!,. DEAN MULDOON The great Chemist was sitting in a tub of boiling water. III have established beyond all doubt that boiling water contains a certain amount of heat , he announced exultantly. HHeat , I exclaimed, my face lived with astonishment and chagrin. H1,11 say so . IIBut, NIr. K'Iuldoou, that is in direct couHict with Boilys Law . HYes, I realize that. NIy discoveries indicate that I am about to effect a complete revolution in the field of hydraulics . HIn that event you have done quite a Job. Let me warn you not to let it go to your head . 1 HO, that wouldnyt matter much anyhow. The main point is to let out the truth and confound these postulous errors, donkha knowfy I nodded iu acquiescence, and attempted to go out. Then the Cup caught my eye. HPardon me, but I think Illl take this over to Fisherh. HWait, VVaitI,y he screamed, savagely thrusting himself into his boots. MY FOUR YEARS IN COLLEGE 7 2 COLLEGE AVE.

ARTHUR BRISBANE in the New York Journal gives some good advise about buying clothes. From the New York Journal Editorial Page of Tuesday, Jan. 29. Know Who Makes Them When You Buy Clothes. Copyright, 1924. by Star Company ...-....-.u,-..........-....E...-..........-....-....-....-..........-..+ When you buy clothes ready made - the kind that all SENSIBLE people now buy - be sure that there is on the clothing a NAME that you know. When a. man puts millions into advertising a name he has something at stake. He doesnit destroy that name, which is worth more than all his factories. Also, when he puts millions into building up a name, you know that he must have a name that is WORTH something and that is based on honesty. ml-uu-Illl-IIII- u-lm-m-u.-m-m-Im-ml-uu-1m-uu-uu-nu-uu-m-uu-nu-m-uu-I You realize the importance of having the right name at- tached to your clothing when you read that fifty millions of ready-made clothing for men and women is ruined every year when sent to the cleaners because seams in the clothing are glued together instead of being sewn. And the buttons are made of material that melts and disappears under steam heat. u- uu- mi-m-ull-1m-uu - uh .m- LOOK FOR THE NAME. A good name, well known, well established. When you find it you will know that you have f ound something worth buying. It gives us a good deal of satisfaction to know that a great editor endorses the service that we have been rendering for years. We feature the name Hart Schaffner 8a Marx because it stands for more in clothing than any name we know of. It means finest all-wool fabrics; expert needlework; smart authen- tic style. You know what youire getting; we know what were sellingeitis fine for both of us. J.
