Besides three officers: president, vice-president, and secretary, elected from the student body, the Council consists of three representatives from each of the four classes, a treasurer, an auditor, managers of men ' s and women ' s debate squads, and the publicity manager. The most outstanding achievement of this year ' s Council has been the organiza- tion of a Men ' s Union. Western has long looked forward to such a union, and by the ceaseless efforts of President Orton and his faithful committee, the spring term has seen it in actual operation. Two large rooms in the basement of the library were secured and fittingly furnished. Western has a Men ' s Union of which to be proud; and much tribute for its realization should go to the Administration and the faculty, who have admirably co-operated with the Men ' s Union committee. Another accomplishment of the Student Council is the securing of a Student Opinion column in the Herald for the printing of uncensored student contributions on pertinent questions. The column is supervised by a Council board of three members appointed by the president. President Orton was sent to Kansas City, Missouri, by the Council as Western ' s delegate to the National Student Federation of America, where Western was honored by Orton ' s election to the vice-presidency of the Mid West district, com- posed of Michigan, Ohio, Wisconsin, Indiana, and Illinois. A new custom was inaugurated this year when the Council entertained the freshman class for the first time at an election dance. The returns of the spirited freshman elections were announced, and the Council enjoyed the opportunity to become better acquainted with the members of the class. The Council has staged several very enjoyable student dances this year; and, in co-operation with the Administration, sponsored the Homecoming activities, which were highly successful; and secured an exceptionally fine assembly schedule for the entire year. The Student Activities committee entertained the Student Council members and their guests at a delightful dinner-dance given at the Columbia Hotel, and the Council members and their guests again enjoyed the annual Council picnic at Gull Lake. The Student Council wishes to thank the Administration and the student body for their splendid co-operation in helping the Council to accomplish the many worthwhile projects which it has undertaken during the past year.

These activities were mainly social functions in which every woman is con- stantly urged to participate. In the spring of 1934 the following officers were elected to the cabinet: Elizabeth Althoff, president; Susan Clay, vice-president; Kay Wray, secretary; Lillian Cham- berlln, treasurer. Working with these officers were eleven departmental repre- sentatives: Minerva Maloley, Art; Lillian Vrogindewey, Commerce; Bertille Troy, Early Elementary; Elizabeth Krum, hlome Economics; Jean Pearce, Later Elementary; Clara Schartz, Music; Dorothy hHall, Physical Education; Florence Bailey, Rural Education; Ruth Barendreght, Junior hiigh; Louise Melling, Senior hiigh; Marguerite Eldridge, Publicity. The beginning of the new school year was made more pleasant for the freshmen women through the efforts of the senior-sisters, headed by Bonnie Lowry, who had been appointed the previous spring. For the first week each new student was carefully guided by her senior sister in order that she might become acquainted with the campus and properly adjusted to college life. There followed a lively who ' s who party for all women. Early In the fall term the Women ' s League of W. S. T. C. was host to repre- sentatives from fifteen colleges, for the annual neighborhood conference. Always during these conferences, many problems, more or less common to every campus, are discussed, thus giving a splendid chance for exchanging problems and solutions. Out of a previous conference the present zoning system arose, and it is already possible to see the successful results of the plan. Every Tuesday evening the league room has been open for a zone party. Many of these informal gatherings have been held this past year and the cabinet has met with fine co-operation among the zone leaders. Jean Pearce was chairman of the annual hHalloween masquerade party, which was a gay affair this year under the name of the Witches Wobble. Through the hall of terror entered many queerly costumed guests into a land of ghosts, fortune- tellers and merriment. Prizes were given for uniqueness and originality in costumes. The Christmas Chocolate was an important event of the winter term. Chocolate was served in a beautifully decorated league room and there was singing and dancing around a large, shining tree in the gymnasium. Bertille Troy headed the committee for this event. The Co-ed ' s Quest, better known as the Women ' s League formal, was one of the largest, most brilliant affairs during the year. This was under the general chair- manship of Marguerite Eldridge. Taking advantage of Leap Year, the committee used very modern panel designs, featuring the young man pursued by the hopeful co-ed. Three hundred and fifty couples entered into the grand march and received, as favors, lariats In pastel colors. May 16 brought the Mother ' s Tea, one of the highlights of the Spring Term. Elizabeth Krum worked as the committee head to make this tea the lovely affair that mothers enjoy so much. As a fitting climax to a highly successful year came the June breakfast. Part of the beauty of this long-established event is the daisy chain. The theme carried out for the breakfast in the decorations, placards, and speeches was Seven League Boots. Susan Clay was the general chairman who worked with her committees in planning this very successful breakfast.

By means of a great deal of patience and work the cabinet finally managed to divide Kalamazoo into twenty-eight districts and to place each woman student in her proper zone. Then by calling a meeting of all women, the girls were divided into their particular zones and each group elected a representative. This process is carried out at the beginning of every fall term and some re-zoning is necessary throughout the year. For the past two years this system of zoning has been gradually working smoother and more efficiently. At least once a month the zone representatives and the cabinet members have met in the little gymnasium for an informal dinner, followed by a discussion of zone problems. Every Tuesday evening the league room has been open for zone activities; to foster these affairs the cabinet voted to allow one dollar a term to each of the zones to help with their expenses. Much has been done in the way of more activity and integration of the women students in this way. Also during enrollment all women were asked by the cabinet to fill activity cards, indicating on them the type of committee work in which they cared to participate. On such occasions as the Women ' s League Formal, the Masguerade party, etc., girls were selected for committee work according to their preference. While the zoning system is far from perfect, it has gone a long way to achieve its purpose of obtaining more co-operation and unity among the women students. Much more can be done and that remains as a real challenge to those who are to carry on the good work already started. [60] GERNANT KELLY COSGROVE DRAPER DUNHAM WALKER THE HERALD • THE HERALD as the official news publication of Western State has again tried to serve the interests of the student body and the faculty by presenting items and articles on current events about the campus. This publication, which is issued every Thursday during the school year, also includes special features. Homer Dunham and Miss Blanche Draper served jointly as the faculty supervisors and were greatly re- sponsible for the success of the production. Frieda Gernant, who was a member of the staff for her fourth year, served as student editor. Dana Kelly, also of last year ' s staff, was in charge of the sports department and was very ably assisted by Gale Cosgrove, who wrote several major athletic articles, and Carl Sabo, who handled the intramurals. Special features were taken care of by Miss Ellis Walker, who continued her interesting health column; Marie McMahon, who conducted the poetry; and Robert Klinger, who kept everyone posted on the latest world news in his So Goes the World column. Dana Kelly and Gale Cosgrove also served as advertising solicitors. [61 ] RALPH BIRKHOLD RICHARD COURT THE BROWN AND GOLD • THE BROWN AND GOLD of 1936 has attempted to portray life as it really is at Western. We have made an effort to include new and interesting features and to arrange the same old pictures in a new way. In spite of any change, however, the success of the Brown and Gold depends, as did the success of every yearbook of the past, upon its ability to make the students remember vividly their experiences at Western State. This book has been successfully completed as a result of the faithful and loyal support and untiring efforts of every member of the staff. To hiarry hlefner must go the credit for the cover design. hHarry Miller is largely responsible for the interesting feature section. The stenographical cooperation of Kay Wray, the adver- tising selling abilities of Wendell Lyons and John Birkhold, the editing assistance of Eugene Gillaspy, Lois fHawley and John Alloways were very helpful in producing this annual.

THE MEN ' S UNION • THE spring term of this year saw the actual operation of a Men ' s Union at Western State. Long an unrealized ambition, the Union was secured by the energetic work of Rex Orton, President of the Student Council, with the help of a Student Committee and a Faculty Committee. The Student Committee was composed of David Arnold, John DeWilde, Ray Kooi, and Maurice Overholt. The Faculty Committee was composed of Ray C. Pellett, Miss Siedschlag, FHomer Dunham, Charles Nichols, and D. C. Schilling. The men are not only indebted to these committees and their leader but also to the Administration which so admirably co-operated with the students in making the Union possible. The purpose of the Men ' s Union is; to maintain a spirit of comradeship among the men of the college; to perpet- uate the accepted college traditions; to foster those new customs which shall seem to them consistent with the ideals and aims of the college; to promote friendly co-operation among all organizations on the campus; and to assist in the maintenance of all activities that stimulate high scholarship, high character, and a spirit of service to the end that these Ideals shall become synonymous with the attainment of an education at Western State Teachers College. The men are fortunate in having two rooms in the base- ment of the library for their use. One room is furnished as a lounging room and the other as a recreation room. The men of Western have a Union of which to be proud and one that will bring many happy moments and pleasant friendships during four years spent at Western. [64] MUSIC AND • • THE WOMEN ' S GLEE CLUB • AS in previous years, the Women ' s Glee Club, under the direction of Mrs. Dorothea Sage Snyder, has again completed a year which Is never to be forgotten by those who participated in its success. The group this year is composed of approxi- mately fifty women who are majors in music or who are especially talented in it. The program each year is divided into two parts. The first including works of the past and some of the more modern composers and the second part is devoted to a group of songs and dances depicting the life of some nationality. This year the Mediterranean countries were chosen and the club presented a fantasy of life among these Mediterranean folk. The skit opens with the group gathered together singing, awaiting the arrival of the queen for whom they are going to present a program. Several concerts were presented In Kalamazoo and surrounding cities and towns. One of the most outstanding trips was the annual excursion to Battle Creek where the women were dinner guests of the Battle Creek Sanitarium followed by their formal evening concert. The climax of the musical year was the Annual hlome Concert given in the Civic Auditorium. This concert was the culmination of an entire year ' s work and was greatly enjoyed. The Women ' s Varsity Trio, Quartet, and String Trio are made up of members of the Varsity Club. These groups, because of their work, furnish many special programs in the course of the year. Besides the musical part of the year ' s program, the club offers an opportunity of a wider social relationship between Its members through teas, buffet suppers, and the annual house party. Through the leadership of the administrative staff and by the co-operation of the members and the director are the high Ideals and great musical goals attained.

SMITH MUNGER FOSTER DECKER THE MEN ' S GLEE CLUB • THE Men ' s Glee Club of Western State Teachers College is connposed of members from practically every department in the college. The purpose of this organization is to promote an interest in music among the men of Western and give them an opportunity to become acquainted with music of the highest type. Not only is this organization well-known on the campus, but it also enjoys a state-wide reputation of being one of the outstanding college glee clubs. Over a period of several years, Professor Harper C. Maybee has steadily built up the standards of the club, and through a complete knowledge of program building, has succeeded in establishing a repertoire that ranges from the highest classics to the sea chanteys and the lighter class of music. That is probably the reason this club is enthusiastically received by many different kinds of audiences. The personnel of the Men ' s Glee Club ranges from men who have had little or no training in voice work to those who have spent several years in study. The voices, however, are blended together in such a way as to give the impression of a group of men with equal experience. Much credit must go to Professor Maybee for his ability to blend voices through his method of tuning up the men. During the year the Glee Club meets every Monday evening and Thursday afternoon for intensive rehearsal. It is during the spring term that the club is engaged in a series of trips to many of the cities in southwestern Michigan, giving programs before high schools and clubs. The ensemble singing is supplemented by selections from the male quartet, instrumental solos, and vocal numbers. All of these entertainers are members of the Glee Club. As is the custom among organizations representing the school, awards are granted to those men who have fulfilled the requirements of the awards committee. Only second, third, and fourth year men are eligible for awards.

Amos, has done some splendid work this year. The full Instrumentation of the orchestra makes it possible to have a wide variety of music in the repertoire. The type of music ranges from musical comedy selections to the best in symphonies and operas. This year the orchestra played commendable accompaniments for the chorus in the Messiah Festival, the Children ' s Spring Festival, and the College Spring Festival. During the year this organization has had many opportunities. It has appeared In concert for radio programs, Adult Education Programs, Parents ' Night, Assemblies, and many other occasions. The members are proud of the fact that those members of the faculty who play orchestral instruments have always displayed a strong interest in the orchestra and have joined wholeheartedly with the students. Both groups are working together for the same cause — the recreation of the finest music in the finest possible manner.

Today it is one of the most outstanding musical groups on the campus. During the past year the quartet has been in popular demand for clubs, banquets, school functions and private parties. The members of the quartet belong to the Men ' s Glee Club and have had much experience in solo work. This organization accompanies the Glee Club on trips and many times appears on the program.

This organization uses only music of the highest caliber from the pens of the great masters and their contemporaries of the past centuries as well as the more modern composers of note. Western ' s Choir boasts of the fact that it has been fortunate in having as conductor a man of broad experience who possesses an extremely keen ability to interpret and impart the mood and feeling of the choir ' s varied repertoire to both the performer and the listener. This man is no less a person than hiarper C. Maybee whose many years of conscientious and untiring efforts have been the impetus to raise this organization to its present state of being ranked among the better choral groups of its kind. The Choir has made several appearances during the year in carrying on Its traditional ambassadorship throughout the State. Probably the most outstanding event of the year was the Important part Western ' s Choir played In the magnificent Messiah Festival which was held at the Men ' s Gym at the close of the Fall Term with representative organizations from many Southwestern Michigan Choral organizations together with four well-known out-of-town soloists, namely, Raymond Koch, Arthur Kraft, Gladys Gilderoy Scott from Chicago, and Thelma Von Eisenhauer from Detroit. This performance again exemplified the outstanding ability our leader Mr. Maybee possesses. The Annual May Festival Is another event that always holds a stellar place among the events of the year. Besides the out-of-town engagements, the Choir has made numerous local appearances at such events as the Rural Progress Day, assemblies of the student body, and programs of a like nature. Students who have availed themselves of the opportunity to participate In this organization have. It Is needless to say, greatly Increased their knowledge of the finer things In choral literature and have developed a much keener sense of appreciation for the very best music attainable.

WING [74] THE BAND • THIS year Western State had the largest and most complete band of its several years on the campus. It furnished martial airs at football and basketball games and appeared on two assembly programs. In addition to these appearances the band gave concerts before a number of high school audiences in southwestern Michigan. Participation in the annual Blossom Festival at Benton Harbor and St. Joseph climaxed a successful season. The efforts of both Mr. Amos, the director, and J. O. Crawford, the drum-major, are to be commended in bringing this band to such a high degree of proficiency as a concert and marching band. Director GEORGE E.

The annual Christmas card sale and tea started the year and was enjoyed by both the members and friends. There were two new projects conducted by the club this year; the division of the members Into three groups, each in Its turn entertaining the others at the meetings; this furnished both Interest and a friendly rivalry guaranteeing the best of entertainment; the other was the creating of Perspective, an original scrap book in which was kept an Illustrated record of the year ' s activities. In addition to these various projects the club has had parties, one especially exciting at Miss French ' s, where the members enjoyed coasting. Exhibits, many from other schools, banquets, speakers, and the Beaux Arts Ball were numbered among the many worthwhile entertainments. The annual alumni tea and spring picnic culminated a memorable and happy year for the Art Club. OFFICERS President .

The Board is also connected with the supervision of the Debate Loan and Scholarship Fund for Intercollegiate debaters. The members are the faculty debate coaches, the men ' s and women ' s debate managers, and representatives of the campus organiza- tions actively participating in intramural debate, which includes the representatives of the International Relations Club and the Inglis Club who were represented this year for the first time. This addition to the Board seems to indicate an additional and growing interest in debate. The chairmanship of the Board alternates from year to year between the men ' s and women ' s debate managers who also have seats on the Student Council, and during the year 1935-1936 Rosetta Ramsey acted in this capac- ity with John DeWilde representing the men ' s debate squad.

Western has had a chapter since 1928 and is the only college In the state to have a chapter. Tau Kappa Alpha members are recognized at the annual forensic banquet and new members are taken In at the close of the debate season at an Initiation banquet. Mr. Lahman and Miss Lindblom, advisers, and Mr. Moore are faculty members of Tau Kappa Alpha. [78] MEN ' S INTERCOLLEGIATE DEBATING RESOLVED: That Congress should be empowered to over- ride, by a two-thirds vote, decisions of the Supreme Court declaring acts of Congress unconstitutional. • ALTHOUGH there was no deliberate attempt to make it such, the 1936 season can safely be designated the most extensive and the most successful in the fifteen years of men ' s debating at Western. Because of the large number of promising men who tried out In the fall, the Student Council made it financially possible to enlarge the varsity squad to the unprece- dented size of thirty men. Included in this number were nine seniors, five juniors and sixteen sophomores, several of this last group having been members of the previous year ' s freshman squad. Coming, as it did. In the year of a Presidential election and with the Supreme Court handing down significant decisions on the New Deal from week to week, the discussion of the Supreme Court versus Con- gress proved to be most timely. Numerous debates were held before interested, off-campus audiences, in five of these both sides being presented by Western men. Despite the size of the squad, the end of the season showed that every man had been In at least two intercollegiate discussions and that twenty-four men had each participated In six or more. High lights of the season were the international debate with Cambridge University, a four-day trip to Indiana, a three-day trip to Illinois, a ten-day trip dur- ing spring vacation to Washington, D. C, a debate on campus with Cornell College, Iowa, to be Included in the University Debaters ' Annual for 1935-36, and re- markable records established at state and interstate tournaments. At the state tournament at Albion in February Western came off with top honors, losing only ono debate out of fifteen. Although there were only two days to change to three-man teams for the inter-state tournament at Manchester College, Indiana, Western ' s eight teams won thirty-five out of forty debates and established the best record among the twenty-five colleges from five states. This was the fourth consec- utive year that Brown and Gold teams have won first place in this big tournament. A review of the season shows a total of 101 inter- collegiate debates, of which 44 were non-decision. Of the 57 decision debates 50 were won, for an average of .877 and for a four-year average of .823. [79] Hall Morier Rowland Fourth Year Gardner Ackle ' Richard Court Rex Orton Stanley Wheat.

C, during spring vacation. This was the third extensive out-of-state trip to be taken at five-year intervals, the others having been to Colorado In 1926 and to Georgia in 1931. The men representing Western were all seniors. Gardner Ackley and Stanley Wheater constituted the affirmative team. John DeWilde and Rex Orton upheld the negative of the Supreme Court question. INTERNATIONAL DEBATE RESOLVED: That In the opinion of this House the iudiciar over-ride the decisions of the executive and leqislature. should be denied the • WESTERN ' S sixth International debate, the first since 1928-29, was held before a large and appreciative audience on November 6, when some of the broader, more philosophical aspects of the question later to be used during the regular varsity season were discussed In informal English style. Cambridge University was repre- sented by two advanced social science students, John Royle and C. J. M. Alport, who proved to be most delightful gentlemen both on and off the platform. Chosen from the eight seniors who had seen service on the varsity squad, Gardner Ackley and Rex Orton ably presented the arguments on the negative side of the proposition. As far as Western State Teachers College is concerned, international debating is far more an experience in International friendship than a forensic stunt. This aspect was emphasized in this year of unsettled International relations by the wish for peace so fervently expressed by the English speakers. i.?

This year ' s squad included the following men, all of whom took part in at least one off-campus debate: Kenneth Beagle, Lansing; Grant Bennett, Flint; John Birkhold, Three Rivers; Willis Bullard, Lansing; Lyie Chenoweth, Leonidas; Marvin Clarke, Kalamazoo: Paul Grieder, Alden; John Kovtan, Gary, Ind.; William Lockwood, Oxford; and Phillip Nickol, Hartford. The question was the same as that used by the varsity squad: RESOLVED, that Congress should be empowered to override by a two-thirds vote decisions of the Supreme Court declaring acts of Congress unconstitutional. Emphasis this year, as last, was placed on non-decision debating. Opponents were found in the freshman squads of several colleges and in the debate teams of four junior colleges. All the squad members took part in the Speech League tournament at Albion, which pro- vided the only judged contests of the season. Following several off-campus sallies a two day trip to the eastern part of the state closed the season. Nickol and Lockwood, arguing affirmatively, and Bullard and Beagle, negatively, traveled to meet Jackson, Highland Park, and Flint Junior Colleges, having dual debates with each school. The use of the same debate question made possible co-operation with the varsity in the use of materials and in inter-squad debates. Under the direction of Mr. Lahman, George Mills and Stanley Wheater acted as student coaches. SUMMARY OF THE SEASON State Tournament at Albion ...

It was the first year that either of the two clubs had entered teams in intramural debating. The intramural debate tourney is sponsored and conducted by the forensic board every fall term, and participation is open only to members of organizations who have not before taken part in intercollegiate debafe. Eight organizations entered teams, so that fifteen debates were held in all. The Lawyer ' s Cup, offered through the courtesy of the Kalamazoo County Bar Association, proved to be a real induce- ment to the various organizations to produce their best talent for the contests. Last year only seven organizations competed. In the first rounds, the affirmative teams of Academy, International Relations, Inglis, Pi Kappa Rho, Theta Pi Alpha, and negative teams of Pi Kappa Rho, Inglis, and Theta Pi Alpha were successful in winning the judges ' decisions. In the quarter- finals. International Relations, Pi Kappa Rho, and both the affirmative and negative teams of Inglis Club won, thus placing the Inglis Club debaters in the limelight in their having two teams in the semi-finals. The International Relations Club affirmative changed to negative for the semi-finals, and changed back again to the affirmative of the question to debate Inglis Club ' s negative for the finals. The final debate was judged by three men from the Kalamazoo County Bar Association, Henry Ford, Arthur Stratton, and Bernard Moser, while Reint Schuur, also from the Bar Association, presided. The members of the squads representing the various organizations are as follows: Academy, Frances Jolliffe, Betsy Ann Pell, Mertice Fisher, Jeanne Harrington; Inglis, Richard Fitzgerald, Richard Rice, Morris Jones, John P. Hindman; International Rela- tions, Elizabeth Cole, Eleanor Embs, Ray Early, Clifford Birleson; Omega Delta Phi, Francis Hamilton, Andrew McCulloch, Don Elferdink, Donald Drummond; Phi Sigma Rho, Fred Zeilstra, Frank Schmiege, Louis Chappell, Edward Moore; Pi Kappa Rho, Rose McDougal, Thora Solosth, Blanche Gee, Evelyn Rose; Theta Chi Delta, Tony Malinowski, John Alloways, Gordon Williams, Arthur Miller; Theta PI Alpha, Ida Taylor, Lillian Chamberlin, Esther Swanson, and Ruth Arink. 85] xr r-.i WOMEN ' S INTERCOLLEGIATE DEBATING • IN the year l935- ' 36 the Women ' s Debating squads staged the largest schedule of debates in the history of the school. With a trip into Ohio on April 9 and 10, the year ' s debating was brought to a climactic close. In a total of 45 debates, the two squads: Varsity and Freshman, debated fourteen different colleges and universities. Using the Supreme Court question. Western debated h ope College, Calvin, Albion, Michigan State College, Michigan State Normal College, hiillsdale. Grand Rapids Junior College, Northern State Teachers, Indiana State University, hleidel- berg University, Ohio State University, Valparaiso, and Loyola University. In the Michigan State tournament, held on the local campus, Feb. 22, Western placed second In the number of tournament debates won, giving first place to Albion, thus reversing the order of last year ' s tournament debate, when Western stood first and Albion second. In the League debates. Western broke even with the other contestants. A dual lost to Wheaton, was compensated for by conceded victories from Loyola debaters and Valparaiso. Among other surprises of the season was the substitution of Ohio State University Varsity men debaters for the an- ticipated women debaters. The members of the Varsity squad are Marguerite El- dridge, Greenville, Mich.; Jean Pearce, Niles; Rosetta Ram- sey, Muskegon hieights; Jane Flick, Kalamazoo; Elizabeth Cole, Decker; Adriana Bouterse, Grand Rapids; Winifred Romig, Kalamazoo; Eleanor Embs, Iron River; Marjorie Allen, Mendon; Edith Rich, Ionia; Louise Sommer, Eau Claire; Margaret Mount, Jackson. Miss Lindblom was aided in the direction of this year ' s work by Rosetta Ramsey, Marjorie Allen, and Winifred Romig, practice teaching in Freshman debate.

The freshman squad, organized in the first quarter, included the following: hiarriet Conway, East Jordan; Elizabeth hHartman, Doster; Betty Heathcote, Kalamazoo; Geraldine Large, Cadillac; Arlene Rector, Kalamazoo; Harriet Snyder, Whitehall; Betty Joan Wilson, Kalamazoo; Jane Wilson, Ionia; and Joyce Van Orman, Athens, Michigan. With the skill shown In inter-squad and intercollegiate contests, this squad bids fair to make very excellent showing In Varsity contests of l936- ' 37. So enterprising was this squad of freshmen, that a separate division in the State Tournament was made to accommodate freshmen. This division promises to be a permanent institution. 89] EXTEMPORE SPEAKING AND ORATORY Eldrldge Morier Hicks 9 FOR the fifth consecutive year Western was represented in the state extempore speaking contest under the auspices of the Michigan Intercollegiate Speech League, held annu- ally in November at Michigan State College. This year two representatives were sent, Marguerite Eldridge entering the women ' s contest and John Morier taking part in the men ' s. Fourteen colleges were represented in the men ' s contest and only slightly fewer in the women ' s division. Four men and four women were chosen by preliminary contests in the afternoon for the final evening contests. In the finals Western made the best showing, both of her contestants winning second place and silver medals. Miss Eldridge spoke on Making the School Student-Centered and Morier on Great Britain ' s Interest in the Italo-Ethiopian Situation. Wayne University and Battle Creek College took first place in the women ' s and men ' s contests respec- tively. A new field was entered this year by sending a repre- sentative to the men ' s oratorical contest of the Michigan Intercollegiate Speech League. These contests, conducted for many years by the Michigan Oratorical League, now absorbed into the M. I. S. L., have a long and distinguished history. It is hoped that the beginning made this year in participating will be followed by rapidly growing interest. The local contest was delayed until after the Man- chester debate tournament, when George Mills, Lloyd Fay- ling, and Charles Hicks took part. Hicks, a sophomore who had debated as a freshman, was declared the winner. Bas- ing his oration on the life of Kagawa, the great Japanese who had recently visited Kalamazoo, he developed a strong appeal for social justice in the United States under the title They Heard Voices. Insufficient time for preparation be- fore the divisional contest at Alma, March 6, handicapped him, although he made a very creditable showing against stiff competition. First place, both in the divisional and state contest, was won by Calvin College. Bringing the forensic season to a close, John Morier, the sophomore who had taken second place In the state extempore contest in the fall, brought additional laurels to himself and to Western by winning third place and a cash prize of $20 in the state oratorical contest of the Intercollegiate Peace Association. The contest was held at Calvin College April 17 and was participated in by el even colleges. First place went to Alma and second place to the University of Detroit. Morler ' s title was The Eleventh Round. In the local contest Morris Jones and Leonard ' V ' ader took part along with Morier. After the state contest Morier presented an adaptation of his speech at the big student mass meeting on April 22, held as part of the annual nation-wide student demonstration against war. [90] INTERPRETATIVE READING • WHEN the Michigan Intercollegiate Interpretative Read- ing Contest and Festival was first inaugurated in 1933, the purpose of the event was to foster and strengthen an appre- ciation for the art of interpretation. This purpose has been consistently maintained, and each year shows a marked im- provement over the work of the preceding year. While the competitive element of the occasion has always been in the background, the main objective being to provide an oppor- tunity for the readers of the various colleges to meet and enjoy together a festival of verse, it has been necessary to have elimination contests in order to choose those who were to read at the evening festival. In the fourth annual contest and festival, which was held at Albion, Michigan, May 8, 1936, Western State had the honor of seeing its contestants, Gertrude McAllister and Zack York, place first in their respective divisions. In the home meet to determine Western ' s represent- ative to the intercollegiate contest, Pauline Grossman and Helen Cryan tied for second place in the women ' s division, Theodore Anderson winning second place for the men. On the afternoon of May 8, at Albion College, Miss McAllister and Mr. York competed with representatives from Albion, Battle Creek, Hillsdale, Kalamazoo, Michigan State, and Michigan State Normal Colleges; University of Detroit, and Wayne University. In the preliminary contest. Miss McAllister and Mr. York both read Edna St. Vincent Millay ' s Ballad of the Harp-Weaver. Those who placed among the first five In each division of the preliminary contest were eligible to take part In the final contest in which shorter poems were read. Reading Moonlight, by John V. A. Weaver, Miss McAllister was given first place In the women ' s division, the judges basing their decision on the work done in both contests. Miss Jeanette Spolansky, University of Detroit, and Miss Mar- garet Lamkin, Michigan State Normal College, tied for second place. Mr. York, who read Sara Teasdale ' s Barter in the second contest, was given first place In the men ' s division. Paul Rickard, of Wayne University, placed second, Michigan State Normal College, took third place. McAllister York hile Duane Nelson, In the evening, the main dining room of the Parker Inn was the scene of the festival, in which the winners of the afternoon contests read longer selections. Miss McAllister read Louise Ayers Garnett ' s Ballad of the Door Stone, while Mr. York read Santa Fe Trail, by Vachel Lindsay. Both the afternoon contests and the evening festival were replete with sincerity and consistency of interpretation. It was a distinct honor for Western State to take both first places, especially this year when the competition was of unusually high calibre. [91 THE PLAYERS • PLAYER activities for the year 1935-36 were reopened with the annual series of tryouts. Twelve of the very large number of students who tried out passed the tests and were adnnitted to the organization as pledges. They were: Bobetta Cross, Marysue Sculley, hielene Cryan, Aileen Isenhath, Alice Emmons, Veatrice Lossing, Kenneth Wilson, Leone Mills, William E. Smith, George Sarenius, Karen Solosth, Cynthia Mitchell. The hlomecoming is always an important Player event. A float representing Comedy enthroned In the gaping mouth of a huge mask exulting over the plight of Tragedy who lay bound at his feet (where he should be during the Homecoming festivities) was entered In the Friday night parade. Players ' float tied with that of Phi Sigma Rho for a first place among those of the most artistic floats. At the Saturday after-the-football-game tea, which is dedicated especially to alumni, Al Seller ' s (a former president of Players) play, Castles in the Air for Two was present- ed. The cast included Gertrude McAllister, Delphine McKee, and Bob Welsh. November 16 was the date of the second annual Beaux Arts Ball at which time the Art Club, Dance Club, and Players collaborated In an elaborate costume party. The Women ' s Gymnasium, where It was held, was gay with masks, serpentine, confetti, and balloons. Old fashioned girls, pirates, Russian Cossacks, Chinese, Turks, the Dandy, Satan an Angel, and Moderns waltzed and foxtrotted to popular music.

R. • GO Adam, go Eve, the world is yours. With these words Alquist brings out the theme of R. U. R. (Rossum ' s Universal Robots). Alquist has been afraid of all this progress. He knows that there is something great in humility, and something worthwhile in toil. In his beautiful prayer he thanks God for having given him toll, and he asks his Maker to bring Domin and the rest to the truth. For Domin, Hallemeier, Gall, Fabry, and Busman, the work of God has become obsolete. They have rejected Man, and, endeavoring to improve upon the creation of God, have manufactured the robot. These robots, more intelligent, more efficient, more economical than Man, are emotionless creatures without souls. Stirred on by some of their members who have been provided with improvements, the robots, too, are filled with an intellectual pride. They maintain that, as they can do anything that Man can, they are superior to Man. Like the monster Frankenstein, these robots turn upon their makers and destroy them. It is God who answers the prayer of Alquist and turns Primus and hlelena, robot and robotess. Into the Adam and Eve of a new generation. The play Is over, but the argument of R. U. R. goes on. Sherwood Eddy in his assembly addreSs pointed out that people cannot be stereotyped. Kagawa, when he appeared as a missionary to the United States, emphasized the truth that life cannot be created In the laboratory, that Man cannot Improve upon the work of God. The theme of R. U. R. Is a universal truth. It will live as long as Man. [94] We beg to acknowledge receipt of order for five thousand Robots.

The society membership is limited to a group of forty girls who are chosen for qualities of friendship, leadership, and scholarship. Academy ' s members strive to foster sincerity, loyalty, and sportsmanship. Academy ' s calendar for this year has been a busy one and her interest.s have been many! The first highlight was the hHomecoming parade and the Alumni luncheon which was given at the Columbia hHotel. Academy was represented in the Intramural debates by Jean Harrington, Betsy Pell, Frances Jolliffe, and Mertice Fisher. In accordance with their annual custom. Senate and Academy entertained the women of Western at an open house chocolate during the fall term. Other social functions which the two societies enjoyed together were a party at which Academy was hostess to Senate and the Senate-Academy Dessert Dance given at the Civic Theater. There were delightful rush parties in the form of teas, roasts, theater parties, and a sleigh ride party climaxed by oyster stew at the home of Miss Stoeri and an Academy alumna, Mrs. Woolman. The Initiation Banquets were held at the Co- lumbia and Burdick hlotels. The crowning social event on the Academy calendar was the spring formal held for the Academites and their guests at the Kalamazoo Country Club on May six- teenth. The Bon Bon Ball, under the chairmanship of Jane Flick, was a most successful party. As a fitting close to a glorious Academy year came the annual house-party at Gull Lake. Under the chairmanship of Jean Campbell, the entire week-end proved very enjoyable. The Academites sincerely express their appreciation to both Miss Stoeri and Miss Eccles for their capable guidance and advisership.

Although the club was originally established as a Book Review Club, it has in the past few years assumed a more broadened field, now embracing forensics, leadership in school activities, and in general serving as a background for social participation. The society is limited to a membership of forty girls who must possess the ablities of friendship, leadership, scholarship, and high appreciation of literature and the fine arts. Pledges are accepted in the fall and winter terms. The first high light of the year was the Homecoming Breakfast held for the alumnae at the Burdick Hotel, Sunday morning of Homecoming Week-end. This is a tradition that was established last year. In the winter term, members of the society entertained at tea in the Women ' s League Room the three other women ' s organizations on campus. Pi Kappa Rho, Academy, and Senate, and a few faculty members. The spring formal for members and their guests was held at Maple Hills, May sixteenth. The success of this party was evidenced by the gayety and general air of enjoyment that prevailed. The last of the year ' s activities was the Houseparty held at the Y. W. C. A. cottage on Gull Lake, during the week-end of May thirtieth. It was a week-end of greatest enjoyment, when the girls really enjoyed closest companionship during the hours of swimming, canoeing, and playing tennis. The society is particularly appreciative to its sponsors. Miss Mildred Stephen and Miss Alice Smith, who advised and guided the organization through another successful year.

MILLS SCULLEY WHITE VELEY PUTNEY SNYDER PHI SIGMA RHO 9 PROUD of its rank as the oldest organization of its kind upon the campus, but displaying no signs of senility, Phi Sigma Rho completed this year the twenty-second year of Its exis- tence. During these years of growth, a tradition of outstand- ing leadership and of high fraternal Ideals has been developed — a tradition difficult for any group to maintain. And yet, af the conclusion of this year, the present membership can feel certain that the high standards of the organization have not been allowed to decline. It has been a year of many varied and successful activities; a year made memorable by the spirit of friendly co-operation and fraternal fellowship which has at all times prevailed. Organized In 1913 by the present head of the Detroit College of Law and Detroit Institute of Technology, then a professor at Western, and named, after its founder, the hlickey Debating Club, the organization pioneered in the introduction of debating at Western State. Four years later, upon the departure of Professor HIckey, the name changed, at his request, to the Forum. After debating was Introduced as a regular college activity at Western, the interests and emphasis of the organization broadened to Include all other college activities as well as the develop- ment of a fraternal spirit among the members. Finally, in recognition of the fact that the organization was now a fraternity in fact, if not in name, a fraternal constitution was adopted under the Greek letters Phi Sigma Rho. Although no longer a debating society, the members of Phi Sigma Rho still are Interested In and take part In debating. During the past four years. Phi Sigma Rho men have each year made up from one-third to more than one-half the total mem- bership of the varsity debate squad. But the members Include not only debaters but leaders in all other types of campus activity. Among them you will find numerous class officers, members of all three honor societies: Kappa Delta Pi, Tau Kappa Alpha, and Kappa Rho Sigma, members of the Brown and Gold Staff, participants in major sports, cheerleading, musical activities, dramatics, and in almost every organ- ization on the campus: International Relations Club, Commerce Club, German Club, Players, Band, Glee Club, Choir, Student Science Club, Industrial Arts Union, Inglls Club, and others. Phi Sigma Rho men are found In every branch of campus life. But with all the taking part in extra-curricular activities, Phi Sigma Rho members continue to take high scholastic ranking. This year Phi Sigma Rho won for the seventh time out of the eight years of competition the scholarship cup for men ' s organizations offered by Theta Chi Delta. This makes the fifth successive year that the cup has been won. Other trophies which will be found reposing in the Phi Sigma Rho house include the intramural Softball championship trophy won last Spring, and the touch football trophy, won last Fall. Phi Sigma Rho also boasted a strong intramural basketball team. This year the fraternity moved into a larger house at 5 1 6 South Westnedge Avenue. hHere most of the members who are not Kalamazoo residents live and about the house centered the activities of the fraternity. These activities were, as usual, numerous and enjoyable. Perhaps the most outstanding Homecoming ever experienced by the fraternity occurred last fall when over forty of the alumni members returned at one time and enjoyed an alumni banquet and reunion that will long be remembered. Other outstanding events on the year ' s social program were the annual Spring Formal Dinner-Dance, and the annual Spring hlouseparty. Other highlights of the year in- clude the prize-winning hHomecomIng parade float, the numerous Interesting speakers and the enjoyable social meetings, the roast, the interfraternity party with Theta Chi Delta at the Civic Theater, and the informal Initiations. Especial emphasis has been placed upon alumni relations this year, and through the alumni bulletin, the return of alumni as guests and speakers, and the beginnings of a permanent alumni organ- ization, a stronger bond has resulted. Professor D. C. Schilling again, as he has for so many years, aided the fraternity with his advice and never falling Interest.

WILLIAMS THETA CHI DELTA • AS Western State ' s only social fraternity maintain- ing its own house, Theta Chi Delta entered Into its sixth successful year. The organization, being found- ed in 1920 as the Tribunal, changed its nanne in 1930 to the present Theta Chi Delta and introduced the first fraternity house to Western ' s campus. The fraternity has adhered to no single campus interest, but instead has been the merging point for all of the many and varied activities of collegiate life. The finest of music students, athletes, debaters, sci- ence, and liberal arts students find a social meeting place in which to interchange ideas and develop a broader interest and understanding of school life. Emphasis on the building of character and gentlemanly qualities has been the purpose of the organization from the beginning, and records made in life by the alumni have well born fruit of the fraternal teachings. The organization has established a constantly growing and closely attached alumni group which finds a welcome in Kalamazoo whenever they return. The alumni gather every spring to attend a reunion banquet and a splendid fraternity dance. Beginning with the present year a semi-annual bulletin, containing news of the school, faculty, and present and past members is mailed to each Alumnus. In the past the fraternity members have made enviable records in every depart- ment of the school and the present group gives every Indication of continuing the fine work done by its predecessors. A large and choice group of present pledges offer splendid material from which to choose a select group to carry on the Ideals and traditions that have become dear to the fraternity. At present the fraternity has Its house at 705 West South Street, but due to an Increasing membership, a desire is being expressed for a new home for next year. The fraternity offers the very best In home life comfort, together with the fellowship of a hand picked group of college men. The organization meets weekly, alternating business and social meetings. Elec- tions are held yearly and pledge groups are accepted each term. Men ' s smokers, pledge parties, and two fraternity dances are sprinkled throughout the school year, while at the same time strong emphasis Is placed on high scholarship. For the past several years Mr. Charles Starring has ably guided and assisted the fraternity as faculty adviser.

MYERS NEUMAN ROWLAND SJOBERG SMITH VAN DEN BERG WHITING WILLIAMS WOTRING OMEGA DELTA PHI • INSTITUTED in 193 I Omega Delta Phi, the youngest of the men ' s fraternities on Western ' s campus, had just completed its sixth suc- cessful year. The organization was originally conceived as a forensic fraternity encouraging the discussion of current social and economic problems and these aims have been followed throughout its existence. Since its founding Omega Delta Phi has selected its members from among the leaders of all phases of college activities, thus erecting itself on a firm and enduring base because of its broad representative character. Omega Delta Phi has constructed an edifice of traditional campus leadership. During its brief existence of six years, four Student Council presidents have been selected from its members. It has contributed numerous Brown and Gold officials, including hiarry hiefner, three-times art editor, Student Council members, leaders in dramatic and forensic work, many band members, and men influential In club activities. This year Rex Orton was one of the four debaters to make the Washington trip and Maurice Overholt was awarded the Industrial Arts Union Award as the most capable student in this department. To perpetuate this tradition of service and leadership constitute a stimulating challenge. During the past year the members have enjoyed an excellent series of programs arranged by Carl Rhoads. These programs, which included speeches by prominent business and professional men of the city, afforded a broad view of the problems which confront the modern world. During the social meetings the pledge members, under the direction of Jack Appleyard, presented several enjoyable programs which were enthusiastically received by the fraternity. Three social events marked the passage of the year. The annual hlomecoming Banquet, held at the Park-American hlotel, was an outstanding success. Following this the members and their guests attended the hHomecoming Dance at the Men ' s Gymnasium. During the winter term a stag banquet was given in the Faculty Dining Room of the Cafeteria. After the dinner an entertaining program was enjoyed by the group. The annual Dinner-Dance held at the Kalamazoo Country Club on the evening of June 13 was the last of the year ' s social calendar. Arranged under the co-chair- manship of hiarry h efner and Michael Danis, the function was a huge success with many alumni and members attending. Much of the success achieved by the fraternity is to be attributed to the hearty co-operation accorded by its faculty sponsors, Dr. George Hilliard and Mr. Carroll Lahman. During the absence of Dr. hHilliard this spring, Mr. Towner Smith assumed the sponsorship, and filled the office in a Iruiy admirable manner.

The purpose of the club is to further the study of international relations, with a view toward a clearer understanding of world problems and events. Each year the Carnegie Foundation sends to its clubs, located in colleges all over the United States, various books and pamphlets on international affairs and world politics, thus making available to club members a valuable source of material for study along these lines. These consignments of books have now totaled in all approximately a hundred volumes, with many pamphlets. Three magazines are also sent to the club by their sponsor: International Conciliation, Chronicle of World Affairs, and Fortnightly Summary of World Events. Membership in the club is now open to second-term freshmen who are recom- mended by a member of the faculty, eligible as to scholarship, and approved by the club. Meetings are held the first, third, and fifth Wednesdays of each month. Since so many vital events have occurred this year, there has been no lack for program material. Various evenings were spent discussing the Italo-Ethiopian situa- tion. Sanctions, World Population, and during the Spring term a series of programs was presented dealing with the causes of war. Two very enjoyable meetings were the joint programs given by the Kalamazoo College International Relations group and Western ' s International Relations Club when they discussed the Franco-German situa- tion at Student Fellowship, and when Dr. Scott gave a talk on Possible Roads to Peace at Kalamazoo College. This year the president of the club, Robert Kllnger, contributed a weekly resume of world events to the College hlerald in his column, So Goes the World, thus giving the busy students at Western an excellent chance to catch up on world happenings in a few minutes ' time. For the first time, the club this year entered Intramural Debating, and Elizabeth Cole and Eleanor Embs succeeded In winning the Lawyer ' s Cup. The International Relations Club ' s annual broadcast over WKZO was February 20 on Washington ' s Day and Ours, and the following members participated: Robert Kllnger, Elizabeth Cole, Edward Moore, Robert Richman, and Doris Utter. At a special meeting on March 28, the organization was privileged to hear Mr. hHoward hlaig, of hlarbin, Manchuria, secretary of the Y. M. C. A., who gave an enjoyable talk on Japan. Robert Kllnger represented the club at the Mid-West Conference which was held at Bloomlngton, Indiana, April third and fourth. The crowning event of the club ' s year — the most important event of the club every year — was the participation of thirteen delegates in the Model League of Nations Assembly. This was held at Michigan State College, East Lansing, May 8 and 9, where the delegates from Western, Edward Moore, Robert Kllnger, Gardner Ackley, William Brown, Elizabeth Cole, Donald Drummond, Eleanor Embs, Rosetta Ramsey, Giles Sinclair, Earl Weber, Evida Williams, Victor Williams and Doris Utter represented Japan and Hungary. The club ' s advisers. Dr. Nancy Scott and Dr. Knauss, accompanied the group. The organization wishes to thank Dr. Knauss and Dr. Scott for their able guidance as advisers during the past year, and the following members of the faculty for their co-operation in programs: Mr. Kercher, Dr. Russell, Dr. Scott, Dr. Brown and Dr. Knauss.

This year the Union has entered into many new activities and has made fine progress toward accomplishing its purpose. The annual banquet in the fall term for the Freshman members of the department was again sponsored by the Union. Mr. Lindeman of the Paw Paw School was the main speaker. The outstanding social event of the year was the annual dinner-dance held at the Masonic Temple. This affair was attended by more than forty couples including faculty and alumni members. Ample opportunities are afforded the members to take advantage of educational industrial trips which are offered each term. In the fall a large group of members journeyed to Gary, Ind., where they visited the steel mills. From Gary they continued on to Chicago where they spent the night and visited many points of interest includ- ing the Museum of Science and Industry, China Town, and the Planetarium. At the beginning of the spring term a group attended the Michigan Industrial Education Society Convention held at Jackson where much valuable information was obtained. During the spring term the club was especially fortunate in having as its guests: Mr. K. G. Smith, State Supervisor of Industrial Education and Mr. Close, of the State Department of Rural Education. Various topics and problems relative to Industrial Education were discussed by these men. Later during the spring term an extensive Open hHouse program was carried out and the public was invited to observe exhibits in each department. Students in charge of the exhibits gave interesting demonstrations and explained the details of craftsmanship involved. Near the close of the term the members enjoyed a picnic at Long Lake which ended a very successful year. Enthusiasm regarding Union activities circulated throughout the entire Industrial Arts Department, and at the close of the school year a very high percentage of all those enrolled for Industrial Arts work had become members. These new members were admitted to form a sturdy foundation for the club in 1936-1937.

The recipient is chosen by members of the Industrial Arts faculty and the Dean of Men. [129] THE COMMERCE CLUB THE Commerce Club is one of the largest and most active organizations on the campus. Its history antedates to the period when the college was still in its infancy, and as time elapsed the club has grown and developed until today it represents as fine an organization as can be found on the campus. The membership this last year consisted of fifty students from the Departments of Commerce and Business Admin- istration. As individuals and as an organization it has tried to promote and maintain a high scholastic standard. The club has rendered invaluable service to its members in that if has enabled them to become much better acquainted socially, also giving them a broader viewpoint of the business world, of which each will eventually become a part. This year a new constitution was approved which made some changes In the organization. An alumnae committee was created to extend the relationship between members and graduates, a banquet was arranged for one meeting, and membership was restricted to upper classmen. The club meets on the first Wednesday of every month. The programs of the respective months proved to be affairs to which all members looked forward with great anticipation, ranging all the way from Friendly Chats with prominent business entrepreneurs to the hilarious sleigh-ride party that was enjoyed In February. The first meeting was held in October. It was a very informal affair, consisting of a short business meeting and open discussion by various members, relating how they had spent their vacations. Light refreshments were served afterward. The November meeting was largely a business meeting with reports by the standing committees, followed by a discussion with regard to new members to be admitted to the organization. After the meeting refreshments were served and Informal discussion followed. The December meeting proved to be a very delightful social event. The meeting was In the form of a dinner party at the Columbia Hotel. Miss Marjorle Loutzenhiser acted as toastmistress, introducing Dr. Ernest Burnham as speaker for the evening. Immediately following all sang Christmas Carols. The first meeting of the New Year was a formal business meeting held in the little gym of the training school. Immediately following, Robert Warner introduced John C. McLeod, of the John Hancock Life Insurance Co. Mr. McLeod spoke upon the history of Life Insurance. The speech preceded an Informal discussion and refresh- ments. The February meeting was purely social, consisting of a sleigh-ride party. In March, Mr. George Boyle, of the First National Bank and Trust Company, Battle Creek, spoke on, The Activities of a Trust Department. For the first meeting of the Spring term Morris Morton, C. P. A., of Kalamazoo, discussed, ' The History and Work of the C. P. A. The annual picnic was again held In the spring, and a very enjoyable time was had by all. The highly successful operations of the year have been due in a large part to the co-operation of the following committees: Social, Lillian Chamberlln, Ethyl Winn, and Tom Hall; Execu- tive, Woodrow Eber, Virginia Wilcox, and Rosemary Gibson; Alumni, Elizabeth Musselman and Paul Anderson.

It was formed in 1921 by men now prominent in Physical Education and sports throughout the state. A broadened rela- tionship is obtained by establishing bonds of mutual interest with every branch of sport. One of its functions is to familiarize new students with school situations, co-oper- ating in this respect with the Physical Education department. This duty Is extremely Important at the beginning of the fall term, and renders invaluable assistance to freshmen. The club is a leader In the field of Intramural sports, and furnishes enter- tainment at basketball and football games. The sale of confections at games provides funds for various activities. The Alumni are kept In touch with Western ' s athletic progress by means of a tri-annual publication called the Hilltopper. This paper is sent to all former members of the club, and contains a resume of the season ' s sports, together with activities of interest to coaches and men in the Physical Education department. The outstanding social event of the year is the annual dinner-dance given by the club, with the faculty and alumni as guests. The dance which was held this year was the best In the history of the organization. The club rates high In scholarship, and during the forthcoming year one of its members will lead the student council. Alumni who are doing post-graduate work are included In the activities of the club, and their friendly co-operation and assistance helps In the growth of the club.

In order to be eligible for admission into the club, a student must be majoring in one of the four science fields (Chemistry, Physics, Biology, or Mathematics), must have at least a B average in his science subjects, and a C scholastic standing in his other academic work. Associate memberships are available for off-campus students. Students who are eligible for membership are elected to pledgeship by a three-fourths majority of the club and are formally initiated into the organization during the fall and spring terms. Six new members were taken into the club at the beginning of the winter term, and fifteen were admitted during the spring term at the time of the Southwestern Michigan Science and Mathematics Association meeting. The Harvey Memorial Plaque on the south wall of the main entrance of the Science Building was placed there by the Science Club in recognition of the efforts of Dr. Le Roy Harvey of the Biology Department in founding the club. The Harvey Scholarship, raised by the club in commemoration of Dr. Harvey, Is available to worthy science students who are in need of financial assistance. In order to carry out the main purposes of the club, namely, to promote use of the scientific method, to foster a scientific attitude on the part of its members, and to Inspire in its members a love of learning for the sake of knowledge Itself, the programs of the bi-monthly meetings have featured either talks by noted authorities In the different fields, or have been in charge of one of the four sections of science in which the members are majoring. A number of interesting talks and demonstra- tions were presented during the current year, including Sex Hormones by John Evans of the Upjohn Company, Stroboscopes by Edwin Fox of Kalamazoo Central High School, The Story of Paper by Glenn Stuart of the Vegetable Parchment Company, Floods On The Mississippi by Mr. Berry of the Geology Department, Astronomy by Mr. Fox of the Physics Department, and an informal address by Dr. McCracken of the Chemistry Department. Last fall the Student Science Club was again represented In the Homecoming Parade. The float, consisting of a large wooden Earlemeyer flask with laboratory equipment arranged on the interior, tied for first place as one of the most artistic floats in the parade. The Dinner-Dance this year was held at the Park-American Hotel instead of the little gym. The affair was very well attended, several alumni being among those present, and the occasion was thoroughly enjoyed by everybody. The Student Science Club went on the air when several members presented a short scientific skit on one of Western ' s radio hours. The annual picnic was again held at Gull Lake at which time the newly elected officers were installed for the coming year. Four faculty sponsors serve in the role of advisers: Mathematics, Miss Pearl Ford; Chemistry, Mr. Boynton; Physics, Mr. Fox; Biology, Mr. Wiseman. The section chairmen are: Mathematics, Ruth Barendreght; Chemistry, Omer Widmoyer; Physics, Van Buren Story; Biology, Hackley Woodford.

Beta lota Chapter had two Initiation services this year, one being held at the Columbia hlotel during the Fall Term and a joint initiation held at Ypslanti with PI Chapter, during the winter term. The latter was an especially delightful affair. Another activity of Beta lota Chapter was to sponsor a chocolate In the Women ' s League Room for all those Freshmen who had been Valedictorian or Salutatorian in FHIgh School. Beta lota Chapter sent Mary hHumburg to St. Louis to attend the National Convention on February 24 to 26.

It was organized in 1921 by the Faculty Science Club as a means of giving recognition to students doing excellent work in the departments of mathematics and science. Membership Is limited to those juniors and seniors who have done superior work in laboratory science as well as in mathematics. Election into Kappa Rho Sigma is by the unanimous vote of the Faculty Science Club. The initiation banquet is held every year at the time of the meeting of the Southwestern Michigan Science and Mathematics Association, so that more alumni are able to attend. Since the society was organized, fifteen years ago, there have been one hundred and ninety-five students elected to membership. The election comes as a pleasing surprise to the student, since membership in the honorary society signifies high scholarship as well as specialization in more than one science. Those elected to membership this year were: Arnold Anderson, Ernest Backing, Ruth Barendreght, Carl O. Begler, John Christopherson, LeRoy Harvey, Manuel Huyser, James Lafferty, Kenneth Massey, Lottie RItz, Ernest Strefling, Irene Tetzloff, William Wang.

During 1935-36 the organization completed a very busy and successful season and in spite of its two short years of background is fast becoming one of the leading women ' s organizations on Western ' s campus. Members of Pi Kappa Rho are active in all the fields open to women and the mem- bership is truly representative of Western. In keeping with their forensic ideals Pi Kappa Rho has been very active In the intramural competition for the Lawyer ' s Cup, and last year was defeated in the finals while this year they reached the semi-finals. Pi Kappa Rho has not only been active in the scholastic, and extra-curricular life of the school but has also been very active socially. A hlomecoming banquet was held In the fall at the Park-American Hotel and several rush parties and teas completed the season. During the winter the club concentrated its efforts on the extra-curricular school activities such as debate and only a few teas and a theater party were held. The spring of course Is the busiest time of all as far as the social side of the club Is concerned. The usual spring house party was held; the spring Initiation banquet was held at the Arcadia Brook Grill; and the season was finished by the spring formal and a spring picnic breakfast. Pi Kappa Rho is very much Indebted to Its sponsor. Miss Anna Lindblom, for much sound advice and many helpful suggestions. [ 138 ARTHUR BURNS BANGERTER CAMPBELL DECKER C. GILLARD R. GILLARD P.

This club is open to all students with at least one year of college German or its equivalent. Its aim Is to give the members a better understanding of conversational German as well as a knowledge of the people and customs of Germany. It gives a chance to learn a great deal about German that can not be taught in class because of the lack of time. The club also had many social gatherings during the year. The first meeting of the year was a Sunday morning breakfast at Miss Zimmerman ' s shack, Marbach, at which time the officers and old members made plans for the year. There were three other outstanding meetings of the Fall term. At the annual initiation meeting sixteen new members were welcomed into the club. An exciting treasure hunt was held at one meeting, the notes leading to the treasure being written in German. The highlight of the Fall term was the Christmas party, which this year was combined with a presentation of a Krippenspiel, or scenes from the Christmas story. The highlight of the Winter term was the annual banquet in the form of a cabaret supper. This was held in the little gym on March 19. The first meeting of May was the annual Open hlouse for all people in the German classes. The climax of the year was the big picnic at Marbach. During this year Miss Zimmerman and Miss Lau have acted very capably as sponsors.

In 1923 the club was invited to become a chapter of the student section of the American Country Life Association. This affiliation was made and the name was changed to the Country Life Club. To the student interested in rural life this club offers many opportunities. Through the program and social meetings which are held bi-weekly he may round-out his educational experiences, grow culturally and socially, and develop a true appre- ciation of rural life. In September the national meeting of the Country Life Association was held at Columbus, Ohio, and Edith Colman, Russell Shedd, and Lyman Cady represented the club at the Student Section. Throughout the entire year the club had its attention focused on the next annual meeting of the American Country Life Association to be held in Kalamazoo, August 10-13. The topic for the Student Section will be Educating Young People for the Rural Community. In preparing for this conference several interesting programs were arranged. A very active group discussion was held; an illustrated talk on the relation of organiza- tions to education was given; and an open forum was conducted on the national topic. The club also enjoyed a talk by Miss Evans, who told of her trip to Europe; Mr. Pellett, who presented his pictures; and Mr. Greenwall, who discussed the Scan- dinavian countries.

A large delegation represented the club at Ypsilanti where the annual Michigan Country Life Conference was held May 9. The annual Country Life Club banquet took place on the evening of March 6, following the thirtieth Rural Progress Day program. Dr. Warren hi. Wilson of New York was the guest-speaker and was made an honorary member of the club. Active student participation made the social evenings especially entertaining. The dramatics group, the glee club, the string trio, and many individuals rendered interesting and enjoyable contributions throughout the year. An Amateur hlour was an important feature of the spring term. The annual picnic concluded the social activities for the year. While the club is proud of the work it plays in the field of Rural Education, it is fully aware of the fact that without the aid, the sympathy, and the encouragement of Miss Anna Evans, the club advisor, as well as the entire rural faculty, far less would have been accomplished. For this assistance and understanding the club is indeed deeply grateful.

Coach Reynolds, Co-cap+ain FOOTBALL 1935 • AT the start of the 1935 season, Coach Mike Gary was forced to tackle one of the toughest schedules in Western State ' s history with one of the smallest squads. Western State used about 16 men per game against some of the larger schools who threw three or more complete teams onto the field. Coach Gary was further handicapped by having only four letter men returned from last year ' s squad. The hiilltoppers opened the season with a very impres- sive win over Illinois College. Western proved to be strong defensively and in the third period flashed a brilliant offen- sive game to score both their touchdowns. Pierce scored from the two yard line after Neidlinger had broken through to block a punt, putting Western in scoring position. The other Western tally came on a long pass, Neuman to Brooks, to complete the scoring for the game and give Western a I 3 to victory. On the next week end the hiilltoppers turned in a truly great game to down the highly touted Western Kentucky Teachers squad by a 6 to score. The Garymen scored in the second period when Secory plunged over from the one yard line after Reynolds had intercepted a pass from mid- field, and the Hilltoppers had worked it up the field by straight line plunges. A great Western winning streak was stopped at nine straight when Jay Berwanger, All-American Back, and his University of Chicago team mates threw the Garymen for a 31 to 6 loss. The fHilltoppers ran into a bunch of bad breaks early in the game and were unable to overcome the early Chicago lead. Western did not get going until the final period when they put on a scoring drive that finally sent Anderson over with the ball on a pass play. The next week the hiilltoppers suffered the first defeat ever given to a Western State team at the hands of Iowa State Teachers. The Iowa boys had a great ball team and played good ball to score 21 points In the first three peri- ods. Pierce provided the greatest thrill in the contest when he ran an Iowa kick-off back 95 yards for a touchdown. Neidlinger also scored for the hiilltoppers when he received a fumble behind the Iowa goal line to give the Western squad 14 points to Iowa State ' s 21. A great DePaul University eleven came to Kalamazoo to administer a 26 to setback to the Hilltoppers. The Garymen held the great DePaul outfit to a 6 to 9 score at half time but in the second half the superior man-power of the Chicago squad began to make itself felt and the DePaul backs broke loose for long gains. L 154 After a week ' s rest, the Garymen started on a new winning streak and wound up the season in a blaze of glory. They took Central State Teachers Into town by a I 3 to score with Brooks and Secory scoring the Western touchdowns. The hHIIltoppers reached their peak for the season when they downed the previously undefeated Butler University squad by a 1 9 to 7 margin. A fighting Western team scored first blood early as Joe Muleski plunged over from the three yard line. A determined Butler team knotted the count at 7 all at half time. Vic Vanderberg ran wild in the second half and led the Western aggregation to two more touchdowns which toppled Butler from the ranks of the nation ' s undefeated elevens. In the last game of the season the Garymen made their first Eastern invasion in history and won a brilliant 7 to 6 victory from a powerful West Chester Teachers squad, hiarold Reynolds smashed over from the two yard line after Secory had grabbed Reynolds lateral pass and dashed 35 yards up the field to the two yard line. This game was the last appearance for three men who have played three years for Western. They were hiarold Pierce, Frank Secory and hiarold Reynolds.

The squad appeared well-balanced and revealed many likely prospects for next year ' s varsity even though some of the best men dropped from the team. The line especially was better than ever before in the history of Western ' s Frosh teams. Coach John Gill ' s yearlings opened the season on October 18th by defeating the Grand Rapids Junior College Gridders 14-0. The following Friday DePaul ' s freshman eleven were trampled upon to the tune of 27-0. On Friday, November 2, the highly touted Michigan State College yearlings visited Western only to be set down 21-0, in the final game of the season. Morris, Husbeck, Gierlock, Osborn, and Kuekan were among the outstanding backs, and Oberlin, Smith, Frederickson, Bray, Layton, Robinson, and Runk were some of the best linesmen. Oberlin was selected honorary captain.

Co-captain Read, Coach Smith, Co-captain BASKETBALL 1935-1936 • THE basketball season of 1935-36 was an extraordinary one. The material In November appeared none too strong for the schedule about to be attacked, thus the team had to be built around the tall and rather capable figure of Dave Arnold, the sole survivor and fit regular of 1934-35. Nevertheless, the team literally went to town from no- where, surprising even the veteran mentor, Coach Read. It won fifteen out of a schedule of eighteen games, and among the teams defeated were Hamline, Iowa, Ohio Wesleyan, Butler, and DePaul, the latter the Mid-West representative to the Olympic finals in New York. On November 30, the season opened traditionally against the Alumni. Althoff, Leiphan, Decker, Den hlerder, Heckathorne, and Quiring were among those who returned to test out the new crop of Hilltop basketeers, but proved both out of condition and unco-ordinated. The score was 65-27 with Arnold and Fischer leading the rout. Hamline, a power in Minnesota basketball circles, played Western here on December 7, after losing a close game to DePaul at Chicago. Western won 32-24, a point better than that made by Jim Kelly ' s Blue Demons against the same quintet. Devon Smith hit the hoop most frequently In this contest and it was apparent that he was going to be a great factor in the play of the season. The next game was with Purdue at Lafayette. The bollermaker defense was pene- trated frequently enough, however too many short shots were missed which had the effect of cutting down Western ' s scoring and laying Western ' s defense wide open. Purdue played a fast break with a sleeper version which should have been disastrous to Purdue, but was not as Western missed the short shots and the score ended 50-37 In favor of Purdue. Hope College gave the Hilltoppers a nice work-out on December 14, but could not check the gathering momentum of Captains Arnold and Smith and their men. The score was 38-24. Then came Iowa led by Barkos and Rosenthal, two speedy men and excellent shots. Rollie Williams ' five looked good in the opening quarter, and led by several points mid- way of the half. Dave Arnold led the scoring, as he did In most of the games of the season, checking in nineteen points. The final score of the Iowa game was 48-35. The Iowa contest was the last before the Christmas holiday. The team laid off ten days before resuming prac- tice, then warmed up to tackle Ohio Wesleyan and almost took a licking. The Ohio quintet led all the way and with five minutes to go had a six point lead which seemed fairly safe. At this juncture Read Inserted Freeland and Fischer with only the apparent instruction to turn on the heat. The pace of the game Increased, and Freeland flipped in a basket at a critical stage, and the men from Ohio were finally out-played and Western won 33-27. It was a big night for Devon Smith who scored thirteen points. [160] Loyola was next at Chicago on January 4. Word got hot against that usually tough zone defense, and Western had the game In the early stages. In the second half substitutes broke the Loyola resistance and the final score was 44-22. North Central brought over a good team on Monday, January 6, which Western defeated 45-31, and Valparaiso and Evansvllle were taken Into camp during the next two weeks 54-38 and 43-27 respectively. Western played DePaul at Chicago on January 24. The teams battled along on even terms for five minutes and the score was 8-8. Then came a DePaul slaughter. The hHIiltopper defense was swamped under a deluge of baskets and the half ended 35-10, Adams dropping In the last one from midfloor. In the second half Western came back with fighting speed, scored twenty points while DePaul scored three, and brought the count up 30-38. DePaul was worried. Western ' s strength however spent itself, and DePaul came through to win 53-34. One of the greatest crowds of the year assembled in the Western gymnasium to witness the Butler contest on February 3. Twice Western got a ten point lead and twice Butler whittled it down. The height of the court drama came at the very end of the second half. With fifteen seconds to go Western had a lead of two points. Butler had the ball at the far end line and it did not look as If there were time for the HInklemen to score again. The crowd still could not realize that a long difficult shot found the hoop just as the gun was fired and the spectators started crossing the floor until warned that the ball game was not yet finished. In the overtime Western scored five points and won the game 42-39 while Butler only added two points. Wayne University, an old opponent, pulled the big surprise. After the Butler game Western looked good. But Wayne out-played Western all the way and won 33-29, holding the hiilltoppers to the lowest quota of baskets of the year. The Loyola game on February 13, was won 49-29 and helped restore a measure of confidence. A successful trip down into Indiana helped still more. Manchester was beaten on February 22, 55-35 and the next night an unusually strong Ball State team fell before Western 47-36. Then came the return game with DePaul at the Western State gymnasium. Four thousand four hundred fans, the greatest crowd ever to witness an indoor athletic event In Kalamazoo, jammed the gymnasium. The first part of the first half was all DePaul ' s. Kelly ' s men led 9-2 and then 15-7. Towering height was tipping the ball in. George Word entered the game at this juncture. The pace Instantly Increased and the play was taken away from the Chicago team. By half time the score was tied at 17-17 with DePaul plainly showing the effects of the pace. In the second half the teams fought it out. DePaul went into the lead and then Western. With a minute to go Western had a four point advantage, but DePaul scored a basket and just missed another. The final gun came like an explosion so tense was the atmosphere. Western won 35-33 against one of the greatest ball teams in the country. The final game was against Wayne at Detroit. The scoring of the first string men ranged from ten to thirteen points, a technical objective for the season, and the Detroit defense was cracked at all angles. The final score was 63-39. Arnold boosted his season scoring to 213 — a record, and the team scoring was 781 — another record. The season can best be summed up in the words of Coach Read: I will say at least that by the end of the season it became as great a basketball team as I have ever coached.

A lot of good nnaterial was uncovered during the season. In a pre-season game the Freshmen gained a victory over a strong W Club five in an overtime period. The score was tied 33-33 at the end of the regular playing time, and the Frosh went on to win 39-37 in the overtime period. They won their first scheduled game against the yearlings from hHope College by the close margin of 35-32. The first year cagers at Michigan State College handed the Teachers their first defeat. Although the losers led 16-1! at half-time, the Spartans overtook them and won hardily, 38-26. In the preliminary to the DePaul game at Chicago, the Frosh defeated the Blue Demon yearlings 35-24, leading most of the way. Preceding the Butler game, the greenclads bowed to Muskegon Junior College 38-36. Western started slowly and trailed 36-25 with only four minutes to play, but they gave the crowd a thrill by rallying within a point of the winners. The hfilltoppers made only four of sixteen free throws while the visitors counted on twelve of their seventeen chances. The Frosh improved a great deal before their next home game, when they de- feated the Wayne yearlings 30-27. hHowever they lost a second contest to the East Lansing quintet in Kalamazoo, 42-27. DePaul revenged themselves on their trip here by winning a close game, 31-29. T he Freshmen lost their final tilt to Wayne at Detroit, 36-25. Tupp ' s floorwork.

Coach BASEBALL 1935 • Playing one of the toughest schedules ever arranged for a hiilltop ball ciub, Coach Hyames ' team was able to win a total of 13 out of 16 games. Eleven of the games were played with Big Ten clubs and of these Western won 10, giving her a better average than the Big Ten champion, Minnesota, who won 8 and lost 3. Western has only lost 5 games in the last three years, while winning 38, a remarkable record for any ball club and the most outstanding in the Middle West. Coaches hlyames and Maher presented a well-balanced, hard-hitting and fielding club which was able to baffle all teams but Notre Dame who seemed to have the Indian sign on Western and handed them two setbacks. Western was a hard fighting club who would never admit defeat, and the pitching combination of Brandt and Dietz kept all opponents baffled. Brandt won 4 while losing 2, and Dietz won 7 and lost I. Western opened the season at Iowa City and took two games from Iowa to make it six straight from that club. Western ' s hitters moved into action as Brandt won the first one 6-3. Errors on Iowa ' s part coupled with timely hitting by Western enabled Dietz to coast to a 10 to 3 victory. Western returned home the next week to lose a heart breaker to Notre Dame. The Klinesmen seized upon the errors of the Western team and Brandt ' s wildness to score 3 in the 8th and win 6-5. The next day, however. Western rallied behind the pitching of Abbott and scored 6 runs in the first three Innings and Western won 6 to 9 from Northwestern, al- though a barrage of hits which scored 4 runs in the 9th threatened to drive Abbott from the mound. The next day Dietz was on the mound against Wiscon- sin and proved very effective. The hitting of Neuman and Barnabo enabled Western to win 4 to 3. The following day Brandt again set Wisconsin down 6 to 4 with big 5th and 7th Innings In which Western scored 3 runs each. Western hit hard for Its seventh straight win over the Spartans. The game was featured by the relief hurling of Deitz after Brandt had become wild in the 5th. All Western men hit hard. The final score was 8 to 6. Secory and Miller led the hitting against Northwestern, Secory getting a home run and two singles In four trips to the plate. Western won In the 1 0th inning when the first baseman let one roll through his legs and Barber scored the winning run. Playing a great brand of baseball behind the out- standing hurling of Dutch Dietz, Western gained a 5 to I victory over Wisconsin. Miller with 3 hits and Emery with 2 led the batting attack. [166] Western ' s baseball team ran Into an inspired Notre Dame squad which was at its peak form of the season and dropped the second game of the season to the Irish by a 7 to 4 margin. Errors behind Brandt assured Notre Dame of victory. Michigan got the breaks in a pitcher ' s duel between Larson and Dietz and Michigan won I to in one of the best games of the season. It was a great week end on the diamond as Western took Michigan into camp 8 to 4 to get revenge for an earlier loss and then beat Michigan State 5 to 2. Dietz won against Michigan, while Barnabo and Secory got 3 hits apiece, and Brandt humbled State as Secory continued on his hitting spree, aided by Brandt and Salter, each of whom also got three hits. Western ended up the season in a blaze of glory and made it eight straight over the Iowa club as Dietz won 3 to when he allowed Iowa only 2 hits. Preston won the second tilt and the next week Western ended a very successful season by taking the alumni into camp, 3 to 2, in ten innings.

Co-captair Smith, Coach Mallard, Co-captai TRACK 1935 • THE 1935 Track season proved to be a very successful one for Coach Smith ' s thinclads. Many new records were set by squad members and only one dual meet was lost and that to a strong Marquette University Team. Perhaps the outstanding individual performances were the indoor hur- dling of Capt. Moon Mullins in which he established several world records. The team gave promise of great strength and showed promise of balance when the seniors copped the inter-class meet, many of the events being run in good time. The next week in the Michigan A. A. U. Relay Carnival at Ann Arbor, Co-captain Mullins ran the 65 yd. low hurdles in 7.1 to win the event and establish a new world record. Co-captain Mallard heaved the shot 46 ft. 2 in. which gave him a sec- ond place and was just inches short of the school record. The relay team composed of Russell, Meyer, Ford, and Mul- lins placed second behind Ypsi, but defeating State by a good margin. Next week the squad travelled to Lansing for the State Relays. One of the outstanding events of the meet was the shot put, in which the first three place winners all went above 45 ft. Mallard won, Davis of hiillsdale was second, and Barber of Western took a third. Ford took a second in the 40 yd. dash, being beaten by Mueller of Michigan State. Mallard won the high jump while Salter took a fourth in this event. Captain Mullins continued his record-a-week streak when he won the 40 yd. low hurdles in 4.9, a world ' s record. Western won two 440 yd. relays defeating Michigan State and Wayne University. Good relay exchanges and excellent running enabled Western to win. The teams were composed of Bowdish, Russell, Ford, Mullins, hlumm. Ball, Donley, and Meyer. Western also won the 880 relay from Michigan State. The team of Bowdish, Russell, Ford and Mullins also ran this race. Western ' s team made an Im- pressive showing In the meet and gave promise of being one of the strongest teams in the state. With well-balanced performances by Co-captalns Mal- lard and Mullins, Western was able to out distance the Wayne University Thinclads by a score of 67 to 37. Western took all but three of the first places. For the second year In succession the meet with Butler University hinged on the relay, and Western won when they took this event. Western took a slam In the shot, as Co-captaIn Mallard broke his own school record with a mighty heave of 47 ft. 3 In. Another record was broken when Sherman Ford, a sophomore, ran the 440 in 53.6, clipping 4 10 of a second off the old record held by Ralph Pfingst. Ford also took a first in the 40 yd. dash which turned out all Western ' s way when hlumm took second and Bowdish third. Powers of Western tied with Davis of Butler for a first in the pole vault. One of the most Interesting events of the meet was the 880 duel be- tween Zahn of Butler and Underwood of Western in which Zahn won by Inches. With the meet hinging on the relay. Western had to run a patched up team because Meyers was out with an injured leg. Co-captain Mallard was drafted and turned In such a creditable performance as first man that the result was never in doubt. Western placed seventh In the Central Intercollegiate with 8 and I I 6th points. These points were garnered by Mullins who took a second in the low hurdles. Mallard a third In the shot. Ford a second In the 440 and Powers tieing for fourth in the pole vault. [172] 1 Western State Teachers College closed one of its most impressive indoor seasons by swamping Ohio Wesleyan 76 to 27. The Teachers scored a slam in the shot put, 440, 880, and two mile runs. Mullins tied the gym record in the low hurdles and Ulrich of Ohio Wesleyan set a new gym record of 5.3 in the high ' s. The next week the Western relay team traveled to Indianapolis for the Butler Relays. Mallard took a third in the shot while Mullins took a third in the low hurdles. The relay was forced to take a second to the Emporia team who broke the record in this event by three seconds. At the Penn. Relays the great Western relay team composed of Russell, Mallard, Ford, and Mullins ran away from the field winning by 40 yards and setting a new record of 3:23.3 for the Normal College Championship of America. Adrian proved no match for Western in the first outdoor meet and Western took all the first places and all but one of the seconds. Marquette proved too tough for Western and gave the h illtoppers the only defeat of the season by a score of 82-50. Before the State meet. Western wasn ' t given a chance of winning but when the meet was over it was a different story. Michigan State had beaten us out by two points and the rest of the schools were far down the line. Western Invaded the University of Detroit for a meet on a Saturday after the State Meet and although several events in which Western was sure of taking a slam were not run, the final score was 60 to 39 in favor of Western. In the Central Intercollegiate at Milwaukee, Mallard took a fifth in the shot and Moon a fourth in the low hurdles, although their marks were the best they had ever made. Some of the Western men competed in the West Michigan games held in Grand Rapids where all made a good showing. In all, the season was one of the best ever experienced by a Western track team and though much strength will be lost by graduation some capable juniors and sophomores bid well to fill up the gaps.

The matches with Olivet had to be cancelled leaving a card of six matches of which Western won two and lost four. They won from the strong hlope team by a margin of one point and finished the season with a sparkling victory over Battle Creek, to whom they had lost earlier in the year. In the first match of the season the Western mashie wielders lost to Battle Creek by a score of 4I 2 to 7I 2. Bill Backus and John Dill scored the points for Western. In the second match of the season Western smashed out a win over the strong Hope quartette. In this meet it was Ignasiak who scored the points for Western. Two matches with Wayne University proved disastrous for the Hilltop divot diggers. The first match played on the Detroit course served to season the inex- perienced Western players although they lost I4I 2 to 3I 2. In the return match Western fared much better and the team as a whole showed much improvement over early season play. The final verdict was 71 2 to 4I 2 in favor of Wayne. The next week the Western team journeyed to Chicago where they met the strong Loyola team. The Western squad reached their height in the season in this match, and the Loyola quartette was extended to the utmost, to win by a single point. In this match Ignasiak, Western No. I man, had low medal score for the day, and took 2I 2 points from his opponent. The Western State golf team closed the season with a brilliant victory over the Battle Creek College golfers, this win enabled the Western State varsity and Frosh teams to gain an even split for the season. The score was 7I 2 to 41 2 for the locals, which indicates a big improvement over the form displayed by the Western team in its earlier play with the Food City team. The record for the season is unusually good when it is considered that golf was a new venture this year on the Hilltop, and that the varsity team went against college teams which had been in the field of play in previous seasons. The indications for golf as a future minor sport at Western are bright, and with the majority of this year ' s team returning Western should present a much improved team next year.

BACKUS IGNASIAK BENEDICT CLARK FRESHMAN GOLF 1935 • WESTERN State ' s first Freshman golf team was completely successful in its short season, winning all four of its dual meets. The squad, coached by Dennis Allen, contained a great deal of material for the 1936 varsity team. Dale Grieve, James Weurding, Dick Riegel and Clare Whiting made up the foursome. The season was opened April 17, when Muskegon Junior College was defeated seven and a half to four and a half at the Muskegon Country Club. The golfers were handicapped by freezing weather. Two weeks later the yearlings downed Calvin College of Grand Rapids, nine to three, at Maple hfills Country Club in Kalamazoo. Calvin had been hastily secured to replace Grand Rapids Junior College which had been originally scheduled. The Freshmen again defeated Calvin May 15, at the Ridgemore Public links in Grand Rapids. The score was eleven to one. The yearlings closed their undefeated season two days later by winning a second time from the Muskegon Jaysees here, eight to four. The success of this initial attempt to establish golf as an interscholastic sport at Western insures future teams of support. Clare Whiting was elected honorary captain by the numeral winners. NUMERAL WINNERS Dale Grieve, Dick Riegel. James Weurding, Clare Whiting. WHITINS GRIEVE WEURDING RIEGEL INTRAMURAL ATHLETICS • • Charles Maher INTRAMURAL ATHLETICS • UNDER the very able direction of Charles Maher, an efficient Intramural athletic progrann Is carried o n at Western State, hie makes It possible for hundreds of men to participate In athletics and thereby receive recreation and physical develop- ment. A varied program of games and tournaments were offered each term. For example, during the winter term, there were thirty-six basketball teams competing in four different leagues. Besides this, a free throw contest was held and classes in wrestling and boxing were offered to any willing pupil. The intramural sports are open to any Western student who is not a member of a varsity or freshman squad. Coach Maher is assisted In carrying out his program by physical education men who serve as competent officials. A lively Interest Is shown In the games and a spirit of friendly rivalry is maintained by the many combatants. The feature of the intramural program Is the annual wrestling and boxing finals held In the men ' s gymnasium. A large crowd attended the finals this year and were rewarded by a fine show. FREE THROW CONTEST On March 18, the fifth annual free throw contest was held with thirty-eight fellows participating. To survive the first elimination, one had to make fourteen out of twenty-five shots. The second elimination required eighteen shots out of twenty- five. The fellows surviving these two eliminations shot another twenty-five and the one with the highest total was champion. Dick Patterson proved the best free thrower by sinking fifty-eight out of seventy-five tosses. Bob Quiring was second with one shot less than the winner and Walter Kreuger received third place, a shot behind Quiring. HOUSE LEAGUE BASKETBALL The Saturday morning House League was divided Into two divisions of eight teams each. In the American Division, 624 Cedar Street easily won the title. The National League race was captured by a strong quintet from 715 Davis Street. In the play-off for the championship, 624 Cedar was the victor. Members of the winning team were Anderson, Sjoberg, McCulloch, Mosberg, Roell and Breidenstein. [186] BARBER JOHNSON KING KELLY McBRIDE HAMILTON PLUMMER CLASS BASKETBALL CHAMPIONS CLASS BASKETBALL Francis Hamilton ' s senior basketball team won the championship of the Class League after a very close race. The winners were pressed at the beginning of the season but nosed out Sierlock ' s Frosh and Murphy ' s Frosh to finish on top. In the play-off for Western ' s intramural title, FHamilton ' s Seniors lost only after giving Sigma Theta Gamma its lone set-back of the season. CLUB BASKETBALL Sigma Theta Gamma won the championship of the Club League, duplicating its victory of last year. The champs went through their schedule without the loss of a game. The Inglis Club and the Ag. Club finished second and third respectively in the twelve-team league. In the play-off for Western ' s intramural title, the SIgmas defeated the Hamilton ' s Seniors two out of three games.

Phi Sigma Rho, with a very strong team, went through its schedule without losing a game. Omega Delta Phi was runner-up in the race for the championship. TOUCH FOOTBALL Last fall marked the revival of touch football as an intramural sport at Western. For several years the game had been abandoned as part of the intramural program. A league was formed with four teams competing. Phi Sigma Rho with a well bal- anced squad was champion of the league with Omega Delta Phi in second place. TOUCH FOOTBALL CHAMPIONS J.

The dowdy fates, Who spun and twisted for those newly born In ages past, have cut the fabled thread Of their own lives: and from their ashes springs A golden-breasted Phoenix whose swift wings Gain power from ages impotent and dead. Thus free to soar the universe, man ' s mind, A winged impulse of the future, beats Against the bars of custom, and repeats Its steady knocking, sure that it will find Thoughts strong enough to tear the world asunder And, then divine, refashion it with thunder. -Ruth G.

The business meetings were held twice a month, and the club provides many social activities for its members as is evidenced by their roasts held at the Shack, their over-night hike, their spring formal, their annual breakfast, which was held May 16, and their activities at homecoming. The officers who have planned all the year ' s activities are: president, Dorothy hiall; vice-president, Evelyn Olmstead; secretary, Genevieve Williams; and treasurer, Louise Dietsch, and the advisors of the club are Miss .Doris hlussey and Miss Isabel Crane. The spring formal, held April 12 at the Columbia hHotel, was unanimously de- clared a success by the 60 couples attending. The plans were carried out in a spring theme, yellow and green being the predominant colors. Those In charge of arrangements were: general chairman, Evelyn Olmstead; Elizabeth Althoff, programs; Tekia Anderson, Invitations; arrangements, Maxlne Ward; refreshments, Maxlne Corf- rlght; decorations, Elma Vuolle; orchestra, Lillian Vrogindewey. The faculty guests Included Mrs. Dwight B. Waldo, Mr. and Mrs. hlerbert Slusser, Mr. and Mrs. Towner Smith, and the members of the faculty of the department of Physical Education for women, including Miss Doris hlussey, Miss Isabel Crane, Miss Crystal Werner, Miss Mildred Stephen, Miss Mary Bottje, Miss Eleanor Sondern, Miss Marian Spalding, and Miss Dorothy Vestal. Genevieve Williams headed the committees for the May Breakfast held May 16. ' Way back in 1924 the objects of the physical education association were to awaken a wider, and more intelligent Interest in physical education, to acquire and disseminate knowledge concerning It, and to labor in the improvement and extension of gymnastics, games, athletics, and aquatics, and to further work In health citizenship. These same alms could be applied as a measuring stick to the club as it is today, and they would be found to fit in every respect. [192] HARVEY PHILP HAWORTH SIMS KRULL JONES THE ARCHERY CLUB • THE Archery Club is a part of the intramural activity program, and is the one in which most interest is taken. The group met weekly in the women ' s gym, and toward the end of last term sponsored a tournament, which was won by Doris Utter, who unfortunately did not get In the picture. The main purpose of the club was to foster and develop an interest in archery, a sport that could be enjoyed outside of school hours. It is hoped that such an interest will lead to the enjoyment and growth of other intramural sports. It aims to develop the finer techniques and skills of marksmanship, and to provide entertain- ment and pleasure combined in an indoor sport. The Archery Club was organized under the Women ' s Athletic Association in the winter term, 1928. Interest grew, and soon it was one of the most outstanding forms of women ' s sports on the campus. The members gradually grew adept at handling a bow and arrow, and many showed great skill. At first the group was able to practice only twice a week on the indoor ranges, but during the spring term the outdoor ranges were put into use, and most every hour of the day you could see one or more of the members practicing in preparation for the tournament matches. It is hoped that next year ' s club will rival that of 1924, and because of the Interest shown at the meetings this year, these hopes may be realized. The members of the club are: Linnea hiarvey. Vera Philp, Hortense Haworth, Marybelle Sims, Margaret Krull, hielen Jones, and they were coached by Miss Dorothy Vestal. [ 193] M. E. LE5ZYN5KI WARD ROE ARTHUR A. M. LE5ZYNSK1 DE WITT HARVEY WORTELBOER ZIBBELL SINIFT DIETSCH STUTZMAN THE DANCE CLUB • THE Dance Club, under the direction of Miss Eleanor Sondern, President Dorothy Sinift, and Secretary-treasurer Velma Arthur, concluded one of the most highly successful years in its career. They have presented programs at various parent-teacher organizations, and lately they were a part of the physical education program at Oakwood. They helped the Players with the Beaux Arts Ball, and although it has not been accomplished as yet, the dream and hope of the club is a Spring Festival to be held in conjunction with the glee clubs. The work centered on the modern creative and classical interpretations, and as a prerequisite to joinin g the club each girl must have had a term of interpretative dancing under Miss Sondern. However, as there were many who wanted to join this year and who could not manage to get in the required prerequisite, Miss Sondern has organized a class for beginners which met every Thursday night. The club was organized in the fall of 1928, and their main interests were in the study of character, clogging, and folk dances. Their social activities then were a tea, given in the Women ' s League room, December 9, the Spring Fancy, a dance program given at the city auditorium. May 22, and a house party, held May 25. There were 25 members of this old club, and their advisor was Miss Edith Mullen. The members of this year ' s Dance Club were: Linnea Harvey, Ruth Wortelboer, Maryellen Leszynski, Maxine Ward, Jean Roe, Velma Arthur, Alice DeWitt, Annamarie Leszynski, Roberta Zibbell, Dorothy Sinift, Louise Die+sch, and Alice Stutzman. [194] ' I ' m ' uA ' ' r ' A ' TaLl lift HAYLETT DUNNING MINGES KJOLHEDE RAWLIN50N ZINDEL PULVER SMITH KRULL DIETRICH INTRAMURAL ACTIVITIES • THE interest In Intraneural activities this year was, on the whole, average. Keener interest was found in volleyball rather than shuffleboard, ping-pong, basketball, hockey, or tennis. At the beginning of the season it was hoped to develop an interest in these activities through having the zones compete against each other. This being a new innovation, however, the plans were not as successful as was hoped for. The pro- grams were optional; any girl was eligible to participate In any or all of the games which met on various days of the week from four to five in the afternoon. ' Tis said that volleyball will do wonders for one ' s posture. All you need to do to iron out the kinks and curves is to play a few games of the aforesaid sport. The game was introduced here in 1925 and In 1926 the records show that over eight hundred girls on the campus competed In the volleyball tournament. Every depart- ment was represented. Basketball also had a strong appeal to the women on the campus, as was shown by an enthusiastic Interest In the game in their own department, and in that of the men ' s, for a large percentage of the spectators at all the home games were women. The game was organized under the Women ' s Athletic Association in 1928 as inter- club competition, and the members of the Country Life Club won seven games and lost none to capture the trophy offered by the W. A. A. to the winners of the tournament. Last year ' s tennis tournament did not turn out as w ell as was expected, so no contest will be held this year. In 1923-24 the first women ' s tennis team was seen on Western ' s campus, and in 1925 they won all their contests, save one, and that one they dropped to Mount Pleasant. [ 195] SWIMMING AND HIKING SWIMMING and hiking and skiing were two of the physical education courses presented during the winter term. The swimming class met every Tuesday and Thurs- day night at the Lincoln pool, while the hiking and skiing class met during the day. Skiing was predominant over hiking this winter, because for once there was enough snow suitable for skiing. The class reported no injuries due to frostbite, even though the thermometer did get down around zero more than once or twice, hlowever, those so unfortunate as to lose their balance descending the hill reported immense black and blue marks — and produced their evidence! Those who took the swimming course learned how to blow bubbles under water, how to crawl as the Australians do, how to dive without unjointing like an umbrella In a windstorm. Everyone should learn to swim. It makes the fat person feel slim and the thin person forget all about her joints! mt:- If ffl.M 44|MgMMM S 1 - s ■4 tm i o CO c HUMOR AND • • BILLY BERP CLIPPINGS ASSASSINATION IN THE ASYLUM, HOMOCIDE IN THE HOSPITAL or KILLING IN THE CLINIC By S. S. Van Berp (Title suggestions by Mr. Smith and Mr. Foley) CHAPTER ONE It was a night that suggested calamity. The lightning flashed, the thunder roared. The rain came down in sheets and pillow-cases. Within the walls of the Astoria Sanitarium a sinister shadow moved from ward to ward and finally to the private office of Dr. Piccard, superintendent. For a moment there was an eerie silence that struck into the crescendo of the storm like a dramatic pause. Suddenly a blood-curdling shriek came from the office of Piccard. It ended in a mournful wail that sounded like a lost soul, hopelessly despairing. And then above the resumed rage of the storm came the staccato of seven pistol shots. Truly murder was running rampant in Dr. Piccard ' s Home for the Nervous and Those with Fear Complexes. CHAPTER TWO Fido Pants was aroused from his deep study of the Egyptian hieroglyphics on a patented mouse-trap from the tomb of Ptolemy the Great, 329 B. C, by the insistent ring of his solid ivory telephone. Deuce take it, Markhound, old bean! What in the world can be ringin ' me at this hour? asked the great Pants. Pants listened at the phone for about five minutes without interrupting with a word. Finally he said, Cheerio! and hung up the receiver. The infernal regions have broken loose at Piccard ' s private hospital. We must go there at once! And they were off into the night. CHAPTER THREE As they entered the reception room of the hospital. There was one thing that struck their notice first of all. That was the number of dead bodies drooped in odd postures about the room. Three men, their throats slashed from ear to ear, were draped over the piano. Two nurses were sprawled over a monopoly game each stabbed in the heart with gueer little daggers mighty like those in use by the mafia. One orderly had been stuffed into the wastepaper baske+. Dr. Piccard, himself, was hanging by his neck from the chandelier. Outside of these details, the room was in perfect order — except, of course, for the blood. Dr. Murphy, the assistant-superintendent, sleek, slippery, and debonair, walked into the room at this moment. His hands and clothes were smeared with blood. Wait until you see the bodies in Dr. Piccard ' s office, he said smilingly. Fido Pants turned to Markhound and muttered in an undertone, That one will bear watching! CHAPTER FOUR Would you like to finish this story? How do you know you can ' t write? Even if you can ' t write, you can always be the author of a murder story. Frankly, S. S. Van Berp doesn ' t want to finish the story himself. He would rather finish Fido Pants. For the best solution to the above mystery, wrapped in cellophane and In the malls by noon, Berp will give one grade A robotess, blonde, brunette, or stucco.

Here one may find any information he may desire.

You could go over to the catalog, look through the file carefully, and finally go up to the girl at the desk (if I were you, I ' d pick the little blonde) and ask her if anybody put in a bid to take her home yet. Well, now, sup- posing you can ' t find the blonde; or supposing you can find the blonde, but she already has a date. Go back to the card catalog, start out with the A ' s, and I ' ll wager that before you get to the D ' s you ' ll be dated up. But supposing you didnt come up to the library to find a date. What then? Well, as far as we ' re concerned, you can go over to the card catalog if you want to. Sometimes it ' s just good clean fun to see how close you can come to finding what you want.

Many of you will soon be graduated from the school of books to the school of life ■ — • a school that has few snap courses and has plenty of quizzes. It is a school from which you are never graduated — it never lets out. We, too, who supply Kalamazoo with Consumers Power service, are still going to school in many ways — and this school too, never lets out. Constant study - — continual research — goes on in order that the work of betterment and improve- ment may be unceasing. The rapid development in the electric and gas sciences calls for continual changes and makes old methods and old equipment obsolete. In maintaining our high standards of serv- ice, millions of dollars have been expended from year to year to make available to Kalamazoo and hundreds of other Michigan cities and towns the most modern equipment and resources — to assure you, your home, industry and community, the advantages, the help and the convenience of economical reliable service.
