Ded ication The Fountain ADMINISTRATION CLASSES ORGANIZATIONS ATHLETICS FEATURES ADVERTISEMENTS Co ntents Wartburg Hall Campus Walk INSTALLATION President E. J. Braulick, together with twenty other faculty members, appointed by the American Lutheran Church to comprise the administration of Wartburg College, were formally installed in St. Paul ' s Lutheran Church, Sunday, September 22. The procession of faculty members, attired in academic robes and accompanied by visiting educators, solemnly wended its way from the College campus to the Church, where the student body formed a guard of honor. The exercises opened with an invocation by the Rev. R. C. Schlueter, who con ' ducted the liturgical service. Following this, St. Paul ' s Choir sang Holy, Holy, Holy, an anthem composed by E. G. Heist, head of the music department of Wartburg College. The Rev. C. C. Hein, President of the American Lutheran Church, then addressed the assemblage, using for his text, Gal. 6:14: God forbid that I should glory, save in the Cross of Christ. At the conclusion of the sermon the faculty was formally installed by Dr. C. C. Hein, assisted by the Rev. W. J. F. Adix of Guttenburg, Iowa, vice-chairman of the Board of Regents. Greetings to Wartburg College at its new location were presented by sister institutions. In conclusion, the benediction was pronounced and the doxology was sung by the audience.

THE SPIRIT OF WARTBURG I had had a good conception of the spirit of the American patriot, the Spirit of St. Louis, and spirit of ammonia, hut it was not until that memorable day of the snake-dance parade for the homecoming football game that I really knew th e spirit of Wartburg. It was evident from the first that Mother Nature disapproved of the parade. She hung dark, heavy clouds low over the campus and flashed ominous warnings of light- ning through the sky. Even before the students had assembled she lost control of her temper and vent her wrath on the whole countryside, dropping millions of tiny bombs of misery and discomfort — bombs that splashed and splattered in glee at the vexation they caused. But the students of Wartburg were undaunted. Like the crusaders of old, they flung their heads high, and, with a song on their lips, marched forth in complete defiance of the scourging elements. (Ah, unconquerable youth, you are the power of the universe to whom Mother Nature herself must sometimes bow. Ah, undismayed youth, yours are the palaces and the kingdoms and the heavens, for your spirit can never be broken.) Never faltering, never hesitating, the dauntless students marched on. Pausing only long enough to roll a trouser leg out of the water, to draw a coat tighter, or to wipe the raging rain from their eyes, they never once thought of giving up or of turning back. And when they reached their destination they didn ' t for a single moment allow the storm to wash away a particle of vigor, enthusiasm, and merriment from their songs and their cheers. And so the cause was won. What matter that the students sneezed and sniffled for weeks afterwards? What matter that one girl fell during the snake-dance and broke her ankle? What matter that dresses were drenched into shrunken ruin, that waved hair was strung to its original straightness, and that shoes were soaked into everlasting squeakiness? What matter that the football team met dismal defeat? After all, it ' s the spirit that counts, and what spirit need be more zealous than the spirit of Wartburg? CHURCH SERVICES The religious aetivities of the Wartburg student body center around St. Paul ' s Lutheran Church of which Rev. R. C. Schlueter is the pastor. Prof. E. G. Heist is organist of the congregation and also holds the posi- tion of choir director. Besides this, all of the Professors are members of the local congregation and some are represented in the Sunday School and on the church council. There are three regular services held each Sunday morning at St. Paul ' s. Two of these are in the English language and one is in Ger- man. The 8 :00 o ' clock service known as the Matin Service is the one most frequented by dormitory studen ' s At these early morning worships the ordained ministers on the faculty deliver the sermons, rotating through- out the vear. LUTHER LEAGUE Membership in St. Paul ' s Luther League is open to all Lutheran students attending Wartburg. Many students have availed themselves of this opportunity and a majority of the local league is composed of Wartburgcrs. Arthur Neumann, of the Wartburg student body, is president of the league. RELIGIOUS WORSHIP ON THE CAMPUS Not only are Wartburg students expected to attend services regularly at the local church but they are also given an opportunity for daily worship on the campus. A convocation period from 9:4? to 10:20 a. m. is set aside each day of the school week for religious and educational convocations, the former being held on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays with senior pre-theological students in charge of the Friday periods. Chapel hours are set aside for each of the dormitories as well. These take place immediately after the evening meal in the two dormitories. The senior pre-theological students conduct the chapels in Grossmann Hall whereas Miss {Catherine Kaiser, dean of women, has charge of the chapel periods in Wartburg Hall. The senior pre-theological students also have charge of prayers before mea ' s in the dining room. Or qanizations PEP CLUB Mardorf, Guetzlaff, Cain, Kuethe, Gehrecke, Schmidt, A. Jahr.

Rosalma Neubauer Vice President Jim Russell Head Cheer-Leader Edgar Jahr The Pep Club, as the name indicates, is an organization whose purpose is to develop and stimulate school spirit among the students. The membership is composed of four members elected by each class and the cheer leaders elected by the club. The first real function of the Pep Club during the year was to assist in making Wartburg ' s first Homecoming a success. The activities of the club were many and varied, ranging from the organizing of a float parade to the decorating of the goal posts. A torch parade ending in a big bonfire was also held in the evening. It was during Homecoming week that the college pep song, written by a committee of the Pep Club, was first released. The Pep Club arranged for an amplifying system at two of the football games which made a public broadcast of these games possible. Previous to every basket ball game the club organized an all-student pep meeting. These pep meetings not only gave an opportunity for good yelling practice, but also served to develop school spirit by the means of a program consisting of impromptu speeches, musical numbers, novelty numbers, and a short pep talk by an outside speaker. This organization considers as its best project of the year the beginning of a collection of Wartburg trophies by purchasing a loving cup which was awarded to Coach Hertel at the annual basket ball banquet for the winning of the co-championship in the Tri-State Conference.

Edgar Jahr President Violette Kohl Secretary-Treasurer Paul Scherb Vice President Rosalma Neubauer Reporter The Science Club was organized to increase the interest in science. A program committee elected by the club, with the vice president as chairman, arranged the pro- grams for the meetings throughout the year. The interrelation of the sciences, namely, physics, mathematics, biology, chemistry, and general science, was stressed. Much interest was centered around the Stratosphere flight last fall. The National Geographic Society presented the club with three book marks made from the material of the balloon used in the flight. Scientific current topics and reports were discussed, and outside speakers presented lectures to the group. Field trips were taken in the spring. To become a member, a student must have maintained a high scholastic average in the science course he was taking. There are twenty-four members. Professors Aardal, Chellevold, Hertel, and Swensen, heads of the various departments, acted as supervisors. COLLEGE CHOIR 6 r t 1 1 i t U i £ Hi it if it Russell, Mardorf. Priebe. Koch. A.

Two meetings were held each month; one was educational and one was social. During the year, the girls sponsored several activities; a tea for the faculty wives and a few friends, caroling at Christmas time, and an albschool Valentine party. Intramural sports among the girls were organized, and candy was sold at several basket ball games. WARTBURG HALL COUNCIL The Wartburg Hall Council is composed of five members: Gertrude Voelker, president, Rosalma Neubauer, Lillian Roggow, Marie Zink and Doris Krause. The Council assisted the Dean of Women in making and enforcing rules which were essential to an efficient regulation of dormitory life. Bi-weekly meetings of the dormitory girls were planned by this group, and were held in the reception room. These meetings were usually social in nature. P R E -T H E O L O G I C A L SOCIETY Moench.

This organ- ization affords to those young men who intend to enter the Seminary the opportunity to discuss and make clear any problems which may concern the ministry and activities of the church. It is also the aim of the society to influence and guide the spiritual life on the campus as much as it is able through its meetings and special functions. Various topics of interest have been discussed by this group this year at the regular meetings. Chief among those were The Aims and Purposes of a Pre- Theological Society, Can I As a Christian Participate in Any Future War? and The Attitude of the Lutheran Church Toward the Economic and Social Problems of Today. In addition, the society sponsored a Christmas candle-light service at St. Paul ' s Church. ROUND TABLE Zink, Mardorf, Goppelt, Huss, ReinkinK, Kepler. Engelbrccht, Braulick. G. Voelker, Rausch. I.

Essentially a study club, its prime purpose was to open new fields to its members, and introduce new subjects for thought and inves- tigation. The first semester was devoted to discussion of current problems, among which were the Italian-Ethiopian problem discussed by Dr. C. H. Graening, and the A. A. A. presented by Mark Huss. Meetings of the second part of the year concerned grand opera; La Gioconda, Aida, and Lohengrin were studied. The last meeting of the year was guest night. DEUTSCHER VEREIN Jahr.

The chief object of the society was to give German students an opportunity to become familiar with German, especially colloquial German, away from the class- room atmosphere. Programs were varied and exceedingly informal. Practically every member was given the opportunity to appear on the program at some time or another, although outside speakers were occasionally invited. At each of the meetings the German folk song was cultivated. FORTRESS STAFF A. Jahr, Heist. Adix, BaumKarten, Kepler, Priebe, Mardorf.

Kuhlmann The Wartburg Trumpet, the official school newspaper, is published bi-weekly during the school year. Its aim is to give a picture of important events at the college, and to record student opinion. The newspaper is a useful addition to the courses included in the college curri- culum. Members of the journalism classes gain practical experience while working on the Trumpet. Throughout the year, creative writing was encouraged among the students by a literary corner. The initial issue of the Trumpet appeared in October. The staff for 1935-1936 relinquished its duties the first of May to give the new staff an opportunity to become accustomed to the work before the end of the year. WARTBURG LUTHERAN MALE QUARTET The Wartburg Lut heran Male Quartet is composed of four members: Erwin Seidel, first tenor; Alfred Mardorf, second tenor; Elmer Kretzschmar, first bass; and Erhard Schalkhauser, second bass. The members were selected by the music department of Wartburg College. Its purpose is to bring to the people the gems of sacred choral selections in their most beautiful form. The quartet furnished musical selections at numerous convocation exercises and also at church services. It traveled with the Male Chorus on its tour through Iowa and southern Minnesota, the program including a number of quartet selections. An extensive summer tour is being planned by the quartet, covering Iowa and the greater part of the surrounding states. MIXED OCTET The mixed octet under the direction of Erhard Schalkhauser, was organized primarily to enhance the Chapel services and to sing at church services. The octet, composed of Mary Spalding, Evelyn Moulton, Margaret Kuethe, Hedwig Rausch, Kenneth Koch, Erwin Seidel, George Mardorf, and Erhard Schalkhauser, has met with much approval. The singing of sacred anthems has contributed much to the atmos- phere of the chapel service. The octet has appropriately been called The Chapel Singers. DEBATE CLUB The Wartburg College debaters, Mark Huss, Harry Schulz, Martin Leeseberg, and Walter Priebe, debated this last year on the proposition: Resolved: that the Congress shall be permitted to override by a two-thirds majority vote decisions of the Supreme Court declaring acts of Congress unconstitutional. Fort Dodge Junior College, Upper Iowa University, The University of Dubuque, and Elkader Junior College met with the team both at their schoo ' s and at Wartburg. The squad was coached by Rev. A. Braun. ORCHESTRA During the fall of 1935 the Wartburg Orchestra was organized by Mr. Immanuel Lium. Students having instrumental ability were selected. The orchestra was com- posed of twenty- four members. The purpose of the orchestra was to give the musically inclined students of Wartburg an opportunity to learn and practice good music. The officers of the orchestra were: president, Herbert Adix; secretary-treasurer, Gertrude Guetzlaff; librarian, Ruth Goppelt. Mr. Lium, the director, is a graduate of the Sherwood Music School of Chicago, Illinois. While attending this school he specialized in piano work. Mr. Lium also teaches a course in music theory. The personnel of the orchestra was as follows: clarinets: Herbert Adix, Mae Cain, Arlene Carstensen, Evelyn Eichmann, Adolf Goppelt, Henrietta Lambrecht; violins: Lorraine Eckstein, Evelyn Moulton, Carl Mueller, Walter Pfeffer, Faith Shirley; cellos: Marion Dillon, Olga Lickiss; cornets: Edward Harden, Paulus Heist, Genevieve Norman; horns: James Russell, Ruth Goppelt; trombones: Paul Concannon, Harry Rappath; baritone: Geraldine Dilley; saxophone: Edwin Knitt; drums: Martin Leeseberg; piano: Gertrude Guetzlaff. Rappath swinging the baton, the Wartburg field song, Jim Russell acting natural, and everyone else trying to play the right note at the right time — these and many other little incidents contributed toward making up the pep band. In general the purpose of this group has been to instill pep into the students on the campus, especially at the basket ball and football games. An eight or ten piece band donned the name of German Band and played for a number of functions. The organization consisted of four clarinets, three cornets, two trombones, two French horns, one bass horn and drums. The group was composed of Evelyn Eichmann, Mae Cain, Herbert Adix, Arlene Carstensen, Paulus Heist, Genevieve Norman, Edward Harden, Paul Concannon, Harry Rappath, Jim Russell, Ruth Goppelt, Earnest Oppermann, Geraldine Dilley, and Martin Leeseberg. P E B STUDENT COUNCIL The Wartburg student body is a self-governing organization, presided over by the elected student body president and carrying on its activities through a Student Council. The council consists of nine members: three seniors, two juniors, two sophomores, one freshman, and one member-at ' large. According to the present arrange- ment the student body officers compose the senior representation. The group carries out the wishes of the student body and works in conjunction with the various faculty committees in arranging activities for the students, and in assisting the faculty in matters of student discipline. Members of the Student Council during 1935 ' ' 36 were: August Engelbrecht, president; Arnold Jahr, vice president; Gertrude Voelker, secretary-treasurer; Arthur Nickel, Arno Oberleiter, Walter Luetkens, Kenneth Hodum, Herbert Adix, and Ervin Seidel. DRAMA CLUB President Ina Voelker Vice President Clifton Woytek Secretary-Treasurer. .Elmer Kretzschmar The History of Drama was the selected topic studied this past year by the Drama Club. Organized as a study group to acquaint its members with the various types of plays, it met every Wednesday evening. During the Christmas season the club presented The Coventry Nativity Play, an old English miracle play. The production, under the direction of Professor G. J. Neumann, was enthusiastically received. A system of effective lighting and the double stage added much to the success of the presentation. The cast of characters was as follows: A. Oberleiter as Isaiah, G. Voelker as Mary, H. Schulz as Joseph, R. Grone- wald as Gabriel, E. Seidel as Herod, A. Salzmann as the herald, M. Leeseberg, W. Fredricks, W. Priebe as the shepherds, E. Leschensky, E. Hoefer, A. Folkers as the kings, A. Reck, L. Roggow, G. Grosshans, A. Possin as the women of Bethlehem, H. Jech, E. Staehling as the soldiers. THE SPEECH CLUB The Speech Club, under the direction of Prof. A. D. Cotterman, discussed various topics dealing with the nature and application of public speaking. The organization met bi-monthly. Mr. Eugene Leschensky served as president, and Mr. LaVerne Meinecke as secretary. ATHLETIC COUNCIL Back row : Miss K. Kaiser, Prof. J. Chellevold. Coach E. W. Hertel. and Prof. A. W. Swensen. Front row: Elmer Kretzschmar, Edgar Jahr, Kenneth Koch, and Emil Reinking. COACH E. W. HERTEL COACH E. W. HERTEL WARTBURG ' S RISE in athletics is due to the efficient and successful coaching of Elmer W. Hertel. Coach Hertel has an enviable record in his brief experience as an athletic coach, having guided the Hebron Junior College team to a football cham- pionship tie in the Nebraska Junior College Conference in 1933 and in his two years of college coaching, annexing a tie for the Tri ' State football championship last year and finis hing the 1935-36 basket ball season in another championship tie. These last two are the first championships that the Knights have ever won in the history of the school. Since the advent of the Hertel coaching era, athletics at Wartburg have taken great strides forward. And since Coach Hertel is but five years in the coaching pro- fession, we feel that he has not yet reached the peak of his coaching career. Conse- quently we can look forward with confidence to greater achievements by the Hertel- coached Wartburg Knights in years to come. A NEW ARRANGEMENT for the control of Wartburg athletics has been introduced this spring. The new organization known as the Athletic Council consists of two committees: The Faculty Athletic Committee, and the Student Athletic Council. The faculty committee consists of Coach E. W. Hertel, athletic director and chairman of the Athletic Council, Prof. A. W. Swensen, Prof. J. O . Chellevold, and Miss K. Kaiser. The Student Athletic Council elected in the spring of each year is composed of two members from the senior class, and one member each of the junior and sophomore classes. The senior members are chairman and vice-chairman of the student Athletic Council, with the senior receiving the highest number of votes being automatically chairman. Present members are: Emil Reinking, chairman, and Elmer Kretzschmar, vice-chairman, seniors; Edgar Jahr, junior; and Kenneth Koch, sophomore. THE 1935 FOOTBALL SEASON The first football season for Wartburg at Waverly was rather disastrous, the Knights failing to win a game in six encounters. Yet there were some bright clouds in the 1935 season. In only two games was Wartburg beaten by decisive scores. Several games could easily have been won by the Knights. This is convincingly shown by the fact that Wartburg made more first downs throughout the season than their opponents. In the first game, the Knights dropped a 20-6 decision to the Mason City Junior College eleven. The following week the Hertelmen played their first conference game with the Platteville Miners. Wartburg threatened to score several times but lost a close 6-0 battle. A blocked punt near the end of the game gave Milton a 7-0 victory over the Wartburg team. This first home game for the Knights was played in a sea of mud. Staehling ' s punting was the feature of the game. Before a large homecoming crowd the deceptive and fine-passing Aurora eleven humbled the Hertelmen in a 19-0 victory. Wartburg failed to score due to a lack of scoring punch. The timer ' s gun ending the game deprived the Knights of a victory over North- western. The game ended with Wartburg holding the ball on the Goslings ' 2-yard line, and Northwestern won 7-6. In the final game of the season a powerful Fort Dodge eleven conquered the Knights 28-0. Edward Harden, half-back, and Art Nickel, end, were named on the All-Con- ference team.

The Knights opened their schedule with victories over three non-conference foes, defeating Lenox 33-24, Independence 26-20 and Elkader 33-23, all on the Wartburg floor, and then journeyed to Platteville to open the conference campaign against the Miners. This game resulted in an overtime 33-38 victory for Platteville. Following the holidays, the Knights left on their second Wisconsin trip, returning with wins over Northwestern, 36-22, and Milton, 28-24. The Hertelmen downed Milton on the Wartburg floor 31-23, and set out again on the road, dropping two hard-fought battles, 31-36, and 42-48, to Milwaukee and Mission House respectivel y. The Orange and Black cagers returned from this last Wisconsin invasion to take the remaining games and emerge with a season ' s record of 12 wins and 3 losses for a percentage of .800. Northwestern was defeated 33-23 and the Knights gained revenge in defeating Milwaukee 37-31 on successive nights. Wartburg trounced Elkader in a 40-16 spanking and sent the Miners home under the sting of a 37-25 defeat. In a return engagement the Hertelmen humbled Independence 43-27 and wound up the season with a brilliant 36-24 victory over the Mission House Muskies, gaining a tie for the Tri-State Championship and keeping their record on the home court unblemished. Harden, Kepler, and Oppermann were named on a mythical All-Conference team.

THE LITTLE KNIGHTS Coach Hertel, Williams, Kammerer, Schulz, Seidel. Fredrick, R. Neilsen. Reinking. Kuester, Chadwick, Guetzlaff. Engelbrecht, Renning. The Little Knights, undaunted by the victorious pace set by the varsity, also established an enviable record. Dropping their first two games, the reserves swept by all their remaining opponents to win seven straight games. Under the tutelage of Coach Hertel the Little Knights showed great improvement as the season progressed and many of them should greatly aid the varsity next year.

The W Club is an athletic organization. Its membership is restricted to all Wartburg athletes who have been awarded major letters. Those athletes winning reserve W ' s are considered associate members. Graduate letter men retain honorary membership. The purpose of the club, according to its constitution, is to create and maintain sportsmanlike conduct on the Wartburg campus as well as sponsor such activities which will support the athletic program of Wartburg. Lettermen sweaters are awarded to all senior members who have earned at least two letters in one sport. The outstanding athlete of the year is selected annually and given an award. The W club holds monthly meetings during the school year. The officers of the club for the 193 5-3 6 year were: President Edward Harden Secretary-Treasurer . .

This spring ' s baseball schedule included eight inter-collegiate games and one game was carded with the Waverly Independents. Due to the fact that this material had to be prepared for publication before the close of the baseball season, it is impossible to give a complete resume of the games. The line-up that opened the season against the Upper Iowa Peacocks at Fayette was as follows: Walter Pfeffer, pitcher; Earnest Oppermann, catcher; Erwin Knitt, first base; Walter Luetkens, second base; Edwin Kepler, short stop; Pat Williams, third base; Gerhard Reiff, John Kammerer, and Arnold Kueste r, outfielders. The Peacocks emerged victorious by a 2-0 shut-out. TENNIS AND GOLF The Knights engage in a limited number of tennis matches each spring. Three new tennis courts were constructed on the campus this year to provide facilities for the enjoyment of this popular spring sport. Golf has also been included in Wartburg ' s athletic program this spring. Arrange- ments have been made to place the local golf course at the disposal of Wartburg students. Attempts are being made to establish intercollegiate competition in this sport. INTRAMURAL ATHLETICS In order to provide an opportunity for participation in athletics for all students the athletic council carried out a complete intramural program this year. The follow- ing sports were included on the intramural program: Basket ball, volley ball, kitten ball, tennis, horseshoe and field hockey. LOOKING AHEAD Another step forward in Wartburg ' s athletic program was taken when the athletic council with faculty approval decided to apply for membership in the Iowa Intercollegiate Athletic Conference. Up to this time Wartburg has been a member of the Tri-State Conference. The Iowa Conference is composed of twelve Iowa schools — Buena Vista, Central, Columbia, Dubuque University, Iowa Wesleyan, Luther, Parsons, Penn, Simpson, St. Ambrose, Upper Iowa, and Western Union.

O U T F l y All Outflies are memorable ones; there is always the freshman who comes late because he was looking for Outfly wings, the senior class that gracefully melts into the distance about dishwashing time, the faculty members who lay aside books and hats and get a generous sunburn with the rest. But this year ' s Outflies had all the joy of spontaneity besides. Last fall only two mornings of Outfly ! cheers brought on the great day. By class time the second morning at least a hundred fifty eager voices had joined the cry, and their owners had joined the snake dance to Prexy ' s house, where, with the aid of half a dozen band members, they persuaded the President that studying for the day was impossible. Maybe you remember the rest — how nobody could wait until 9:30 to be officially notified where the outing would be, but how all as one man migrated to the Gun Club. And then there was the unforgettable big moment of the day when the food actually arrived, safe and sound, even though it did come in Clif Woytek ' s Ford and accom- panied by half the Senior class. And at last the end of the day, when all the canoers and hikers and kittenball players managed somehow to get home just in time for dinner. The balmy air of spring, however, was late in coming this year. Probably that is the reason that Outfly came upon us suddenly one morning, out of the blue and the gray; for the sky didn ' t look promising, as Dean Neumann observed when the agitators, determined to gain their day of freedom, mobbed his porch at about a quarter of eight. But the day cleared wonderfully, and nobody missed the picnic except President Braulick, who was in Texas and didn ' t know that it was Outfly day at Wartburg until too late. Cheer up, Prexy, better luck next year! That day, as you may know, was the day that the juniors learned to butter sand- wiches with the greatest economy of motion. And the juniors still say it was a good meal, served slightly cafeteria fashion at the edge of the swimming hole at Ingawanis, with waiters serving over the edge of the pool to the bread line. To those who knew, the meal was a real surprise — any meal at all was a surprise. Never have anxious juniors confronted so baffling a series of misfortunes — at least not since last year. There wasn ' t enough bread for sandwiches, there wasn ' t any fruit at the college. There weren ' t enough paper plates. And for half the morning — did Krebs forget us? Who ' ll build the fire? How ' ll we boil wienies with no stove out there? Will the coffee stay hot? Will the ice cream stay cold? Krebs did come, but on the second trip out, the faithful Lizzie decided she had done her share, coughed, and collapsed. Coach and Miss Kaiser came to the rescue and brought the meal to hungry Wartburg. And so the bread line really formed and was partly served by one o ' clock, a triumph to equal any in Outfly history. And note — there were seconds on wienies and ice cream! Kittenball, climbing, skipping stones on the river and loafing seemed favorite after- noon activities. And as shadows lengthened and the winds of April regained some of their March sting, the weary outfliers returned to dinner, outfly wings trailing in the dust, sorely needing a summer ' s rest before their use next fall. .

Contact! A homer by Kuhl- munn ? ?????? Written in last-minute response to the editor ' s urgent S.O.S. (Stuff for Open Space J I must warn you at the start that my chief purpose here is not to amuse or enter- tain, but only to ramble through space which might otherwise be left blank with the heading Autographs. Personally, I like rambling; rambles through woods, books (not text books), meals — all of them really delight me. Coach Hertel once told me the way I ramble around the bases reminds him of a crippled cow out sightseeing. But in baseball it ' s different. Now in baseball — but wait a minute, I don ' t intend to write about baseball. Come to think of it, I haven ' t told you what I am going to write about. (Over o ne hundred words and I haven ' t mentioned my subject — some ramble, eh?) I have to break the ice sooner or later so I might as well tell you that I ' m going to write about the weather. (Explanation: The weather is the best subject I know for stalling.) The cold spell at Wartburg will probably not be paralelled for many years. It was so cold that the girls in the dormitory plaited their dresses from hugging the radiators. The Canadian students quit telling about how cold it gets in Canada — it was that cold here. So that you can contrast the cold spell with former moderate weather let me picture the Wartburg Campus as it was last fall, B. C. (Before the Cold). Bare headed boys and bare-legged girls run, walk, stroll, meander, tramp, rove, wander, roam, trudge, and skip (nothing like a Thesaurus to help one say nothing in the longest way) over the campus. The water in the pool is still a liquid. Radiators are shut off. Professor Cornils strolls home without earmuffs. Birds sing, flowers dance, etc. (Suggested Study Hint: Wordsworth ' s poetry.) Now with another hundred words to my credit (or discredit), I ' ll change the scene back to the cold period. Trees are bare, the water in the pool doesn ' t splash (S.S.H.: Whittier ' s Snowbound) , and the snowdrifts are so high people put flag poles on their cars to help locate them after a storm. What ' s worse, there is a coal shortage, and, as any student of social problems can testify, nothing makes a school so cold as a lack of fuel. (S.S.H.: Brown ' s Coal Mining.) At Wartburg the situation grew so acute the faculty contemplated confiscating Professor Ottersberg ' s cane to heat the Girls ' Dormitory. Coal was so scarce the coal dust was used as specie just as gold dust was used in the good old days. (S.S.H.: The Forty-niners.) Yes, the weather (excuse me while I count the above words — hurray, I have enough) .... I intended to tell you how far the mercury dug into the ground one cold night, but what ' s the use?

He has written some five or six thousand lyrics, over a thousand hymns, and several stories; has published poems and stories in various magazines and anthologies, also two collections of Christmas lyrics and a Christmas drama. He has been writing verse about thirty-five years. AFTER HARVEST Cool is the night; The cricket ' s slow Chirping tells How summers go. Green and gold, And the gold ' s in the bin.

W A RTBURG 1966 With a hasty jerk on the rip-cords of our parachutes we leaped from the doorway of our transcontinental rocket ship and began our descent to the airfield at Waverly, Iowa. As we floated slowly through the various atmospheric strata we notified the airport of our imminent arrival by means of our portable electro-magnetic telephonic speakers. Soon we were caught in the iron grip of the airport force ray which earned us swiftly to the specially prepared landing area for passengers from the mighty rocket planes which zoom through the sky at their usual cruising speeds of eleven to seventeen hundred miles per hour. Even as we drifted downward we noted the spires of our destination, Wartburg University, stretching their shining height far up into the beau- tiful blue of the heavens. Then we were brought to a gentle stop on the huge pneu- matic mattresses which constituted our landing floor and we doffed our parachutes, flying suits, and special oxygen masks and tanks. Descending from the airport down some 1500 feet to the level of the cross-city elevated highway we found our rocket car waiting to carry us to the gates of that most magnificent of all modern institutions of learning, Wartburg University. As we sank into our deeply upholstered chairs we hastily recalled what we knew of the meteoric rise of this gigantic school from its foundation only a few years ago to the pre-eminent position which it occupies today throughout the entire civilized world. Just as the great universities of antiquity attracted scholars from every portion of the known world, so today Wartburg seems the magnet to which men and women from all over the globe are drawn by their desire for higher education. While still maintain- ing its unparalelled reputation as a College of Liberal Arts, it has managed to build up its other departments to such a degree that as a full-fledged university it has an enroll- ment conservatively estimated at twenty-six thousand individuals. This was the Wartburg which unrolled before our eyes as we finally disembarked before its massive gates and gazed through their iron scrollwork at the historic campus of the modern colossus of intellectual achievement. After submitting our credentials to the close scrutiny of the hawk-eyed guards on duty we were allowed to pass through the gates into the promised land. We imme- diately secured our passes for the Campus Rocket Railway and flashed up to the main office with the rapidity of light. Here, after registering our photographs, finger prints and the like, we were interviewed by one of the innumerable executive vice presi- dents of the University and were finally allowed to start on a tour of inspection with our guide. As a special mark of recognition our mentor was none other than August Engelbrecht IV. He was the descendant of a long line of literary giants, pursuing his graduate studies at the University where his forefathers established so much of their celebrated reputations. Under his able tutelage we soon learned to recognize some of the landmarks of the campus as viewed from the window of our stately tower. Noting especially the sublime beauty of the architectural principles embodied in the Men s Dormitory, located approximately a mile and a half away and desirous of making a closer examination we started out with our guide. This time using one of the University touring planes we cruised over to the mighty mooring mast which tops the dormitory — a shimmering spear of polished chromium. Then down we shot through the spiral slide located in the mast to the main floor of the dormitory, where we entered the outer office of the Dean of Men. Waiting for the third assistant secretary to inform the Dean of our presence, we gazed with considerable interest at the myriad three dimension photographs which adorned the walls. Herr Engelbrecht pointed out to us particularly the superb life-size en- largement of former Dean Alvin E. Fritz. It was he who first established the remark- able standards for dormitory men which have enabled Wartburg graduates to distin- guish themselves in every field of endeavor. Since he heads the large and popular department of Psychology he is still affiliated with the university and we feel sure that his glorious memory will never be forgotten. Finally we were admitted into the private . .1(1 (HKHIIU . 2. W aiting for the driver, . ' i. Mail from home and--? 4. Just before a concert. 5. On the Iowa S ' ate cam pus. 6. What place is thi ? 7.

We noted the battery of complicated recording machines which surrounded his marble-topped desk and realized that here was a man whose duties were indeed both weighty and multifarious. His manner was crisp yet sympathetic and as we made our plea for special permission to inspect the splendid accommodations which are offered to those who reside in this magnificent palace of modernistic art, he nodded his head slowly, pressed one of the bank of switches which formd an integral part of his desk and motioned his ushers to conduct us swiftly from the room. We were handed tiny embossed slips of luminous metal which served as our credentials while we were in the dormitory, and in a few minutes we were again on the top floor of the edifice, whence we were to begin our tour of inspection. Our guide led us to his personal abode, an apartment in the southeast wing. We entered with a good deal of mixed admiration and amazement. The outside walls were made up of small glass panes set in a framework of vanadium steel and our host explained that this was a special type of glass, so constructed that it is transparent only from one side. Thus we could look through it, but no one outside was able to look in. The windows did not move in their casings, since the room was hermetically sealed and air-conditioned from a central plant. Another wall was taken up entirely by a radio-television screen and the fourth was simply a huge master switchboard. Our guide told us that here the student may receive all his lectures, his enter- tainment and the like without the awkward necessity of leaving his room. As a practical demonstration of this he closed a couple of the switches and the screen before us flashed into instantaneous light and sound. In the foreground we noted the speaker while the remainder of the picture was filled by the softly harmonious furnishings of her lecture room. Our guide told us that she was none other than Gertrude Voelker, one of the greatest living authorities on modern political and economical trends. She was speaking on the advisability of preserving the International Peace Enforcement agencies even though all possibilities of future war had disappeared since the widespread adoption of the Tezla force ray shield and disintegrator. Our mentor now pressed another pair of electrical contacts and the scene before our eyes swiftly changed to a different view. Now we saw the solemn interior of the University Chapel with its majestic pillars stretching upward to the heavy steel beams of the vaulted ceiling. Wartburg ' s widely renowned male chorus of three thousand voices was about to close its final number, The Heavens Are Telling, under the masterful conducting of Erhard Schalkhauser and Paulus Heist. When the last note died away in the distance the leaders turned and walked away with their long hair waving softly in the br eeze. Leaving this room we wandered through the halls and paused here and there to admire the unique interior decorations which some of the men have achieved in their living quarters. But our time was limited, so we journeyed again from the dormitory to the office of the President. We had made a special appointment six months before and so were allowed to pass through the electrically controlled steel doors and thus into the sanctum sanctorum, the private office of this almost legendary figure. We were greeted cordially in the hospitable manner which has always characterized the presi- dents of Wartburg. Under the spell of his agreeable voice time passed unnoticed and all too soon our interview was ended and we left the office bearing in mind the in- dubitable, incontrovertible, indisputable, irrefutable, undeniable, irrefragable fact that Wartburg was truly the greatest of all our modern educational agencies and that the young men and women who conduct their studies under the masterly direction of such a faculty and administration will never regret their choice of a school. So our day of inspection at Wartburg ended and we passed out through the campus gates with a sincere feeling of regret as we bade our guide farewell and made our way to the Muni- cipal Airport where we chartered a special rocket ship to return us to the humdrum life of the city. .

THE WAVERLY ORPHANS ' HOME Many of the finest and most valuable institutions in the world came into being primarily through the efforts of individual men — noble pioneer leaders with vision and faith, deeply sensible of the particular need and filled with an impelling love for the cause they espoused. — Rev. A. G. Wennincer. In 1863 while the Emancipation Struggle raged, several small children were brought to the home of Rev. T. M. Schueller, a pastor of the former Iowa Synod, residing in Andrew, Iowa. They were orphaned by the Civil War and were intrusted to the pastor ' s care. Scarcely a year later, in May 1864, the pastor and a few friends adopted articles of incorporation and became officially known as the Iowa Evangelical Lutheran Orphans ' Home Society. A board of seven trustees was elected and shortly thereafter a farm was purchased and a stone building was erected to house the superintendent ' s family and the orphans. This incurred considerable indebtedness and the Society obtained a loan from the State of Iowa for $5,000. The loan has since been cancelled by the State. Time sped swiftly and by 1898 it became apparent that the location was unsuit- able for the development of the rapidly growing institution. In 1899, after consider- able discussion, a site was selected within the city limits of Waverly, Iowa. $5,000 donated by the community of Waverly was utilized to purchase the land and to erect the first building. Since then a boys ' dormitory, a school, and a superintendent ' s resi- dence have been added. In addition the Home now owns and operates a farm com- prising some 132 acres. Today, the vision of the Rev. Schueller and his tiny group of friends has material- ized into an efficient organization housing 96 boys and girls. During these 73 years, 639 orphans have found shelter in the Home — a true monument to the noble work of Christian love which the Church of God is doing. DOFFS TO THE PROFS The faculty is our delight Wherever you turn there ' s one in sight ; Some are short and some are tall But that doesn ' t do them justice at all. In order that you might know each one Read these lines and have some fun. There ' s one who really is a card, That ' s G. J. Neumann, our eminent bard. A poet of fame and a dean of worth, He ' s always ready with subtle mirth. Kuhlmann is second English teacher, On Sunday he also helps his preacher. Milton, to him, gives much relief, But to his students he ' s a source of grief. Muench controls the business course. Order and discipline are ever in force. He tells his students that they will need Always to be prompt if they want to succeed E. G. Heist is our famed musician; Teaching, conducting form his mission. He ' s given to stamping his foot when he ' s mad. And then he ' s sorry and feels so sad. Ottersberg ' s history reads like a book. He rattles off dates without a look. His lectures even manage to keep Most of his students from going to sleep. Miss Kaiser is the women ' s dean. At Latin and discipline she ' s very keen. She also instructs the girls ' Phys. Ed. And makes them so stiff they ' re ready for bed Cotterman ' s students learn a lot Though sometimes he puts them on the spot. He ' s very thorough and very quiet, And it ' s true that he ' s never tried a diet. Coach Hertel is fine as it would seem From the great success of his basket ball team. He ' s also good in zoology classes, Though he blushes a lot when he calls on the lasses Aardal and Swensen make quite a pair. Smart men both they try to bare The mysteries of science to a lot of dumb-bells Who answer their questions with I can ' t tell. A. E. Frits is the dean of men. He says he has a secret yen To study a problem child or a fool. Perhaps he could find one right here at school. Miss Scheie keeps tab on each library book. It ' s also rumored that she can cook. Funny, but just since she ' s had charge There aren ' t very many loafers at large. Haefner has a terrible chore He has to keep Greek from being a bore. The seniors say the subject ' s a curse, But from someone else it might be worse. Hiltner delves into science and art, And how he remembers each little part! In fact, the man is so very good He could outsmart us all if he only would. Miss Kathleen Casper is Wartburg ' s nurse. Her pills and medicine couldn ' t be worse; But when she nurses, you can tell, Because all of a sudden the patient is well. Wiederaenders is so smart indeed That students to his wisdom heed. He has a great many things to do; He ' s registrar, critic, and teacher too. Although Chellevold limps on a very sore limb, With golf and basket ball he keeps in trim. He ' s greatly interested in N. Y. A. And as a Math teacher he ' s surely Okay. A good German teacher is Professor Cornils, But we often wonder just how he feels When his classes sing an old German song So badly Major Bowes would give them the gong. Of course, we must have a publicity man. Braun does everything he possibly can To get many students to come and view The wondrous advantages we offer you. There is still one man we all respect, Everyone lovingly calls him Prex. His sermons and messages thrill us all When he speaks to us in Luther Hall.
