SANGREN President A MESSAGE • The influence of Western State Teachers College, which is commonly referred to as the Spirit of Western, is continuously existent and very tangible. The Brown and Gold is one of the best places to observe the current movement of it on its way to permanency. In this thirty-fourth edition a continuing stand- ard of excellence is evident. Growth of the campus, suggested enrichment of curricular and extra-curricular persuasions, stu- dent interests and activities with the numerous instances of self-directed programs of creative and purposeful planning, cause the 1939 issue to be a cherished volume and a prized possession to all of the friends of the campus. Commendable, indeed, are the efforts which have been expended to make this publication possible. Page Sixteen OUR DUTY . . . • The most important duty confronting the teachers of Amer- ica is that of speeding the time when every child in our land shall have a fair expectancy of school training under able, competent instructors of high personal worth. Every student and alumnus of Western is urged to join in the splendid task of speeding the day when every American child shall come under teachers of the finest type of manhood and womanhood, of sound character and training, of high professional ideals, of capacity and liking for strenuous endeavor in the great task. I would like to take this opportunity to express best wishes to the 1939 Brown and Gold. DWIGHT B. WALDO President-Emeritus Page Seventeen John C. Hoekje Bertha S. Davis Roy C. Bryan Hugh M.

This carefree group — typical freshman class — sat in the trolley, counted the steps, read the frosh bulletin board for their appointment time with Miss Lavina Spindler, who retires this year, and participated in the other activities char- acteristic of frosh collegiate life. Their college president was Dwight B. Waldo. The officers of the class were Richard Alloways, president; Robert Loew, vice- president; Marybelle Sims, secretary; Maurine Kooi, treasurer; John Birkhold, Vivian Dietrich, and William Walters, representatives. In their sophomore year their clan was headed by Kenneth Beagle. The other members who triumphed in the election were Caroline Veley, vice-presi- dent; Merle McDonnell, secretary; Virginia Saunders, treasurer; Willis Bullard, Maurine Kooi, representatives. The class took on polished airs and they were on their way up the ladder — more refined and less green. They witnessed the inauguration of Paul V. Sangren, as the new College President. Leland Dean led the class in their third year. Belle Teutsch, vice-president; Margaret Morrison, secretary; Eileen Putney, treasurer, Paul Burkhead, Willis Bullard, and Yvonne Valentine, representatives; assisted him in carrying out his duties. Yes, they were now men of the campus. Their J-Hop with Mary Bachelder and Milton Ruehl leading the march was a pronounced success as was the Dinner Dance at which Willis Bullard greeted their Senior guests. At the close of the year, Mr. Frank Ellsworth — a real friend — passed away. Back for their final year, they greeted the Freshmen. Dignified. Walwood Hall and the Women ' s Dorm on another hill greeted them. Dr. Loften Burge was their new Director of Placement. Practice Teaching was their new task. During the year they watched the Men ' s Dorm, Stadium and the Personnel Building head skyward. The campus will look different when we come back for Homecoming, they remarked. Milton Ruehl served as president, Mary Elizabeth Dougherty, vice-presi- dent; Patricia Smythe, secretary; Edna Baumgardner, treasurer; Eileen Putney, George Agar and Al Jones, representatives. A great class the Class of 1939. Page Txvcnty-cight i k V. Adams G. Agar V. Anderson W. Andresen D. Arink V. Austin M. Bachelder E. Baker L. Bangerter R. Barber D. Barkmeier E. Baumgarden K.

MacDonald Page Seventy-Hvc WESTERN BOASTS FINE ATHLETIC PLANT • What is believed to be one of the greatest improvements to be undertaken at Western State Teachers College in many years is the construction of a new $250,000 athletic plant, con- sisting of a football stadium, an eight-lane running track with a two-hundred and twenty yard straight-away, and a new baseball field with a grass infield and a covered concrete stand. The football stadium seating 15,000 people, will be dedicated as a memorial to President Emeritus Dwight B. Waldo, West- ern ' s first chief Executive and sports enthusiast. The baseball plant seating 2,500 people, is one of the finest in the nation, and is named Hyames Field in honor of Judson A. Hyames ' renowned baseball leadership before becoming Athletic Director in 1937. In the campaign for securing funds for the construction of the athletic plant, the above medallion was given to all donors to the project. The medallion, aside from being a memorial pocket piece, will also serve as the only means of admission to the Homecoming-Dedication Game with Western Kentucky State Teachers College in the new stadium.

FRESHMEN GRIDDERS SHOW PROMISE • Western ' s yearling gridders were the losers in three tilts that included the Alma, Detroit and Michigan State freshmen. Coach Frank Secory feels that in spite of the fact that the team lost games, good varsity material will develop from the large squad. Alma administered the first loss, 15 to 0, playing a heads-up game and controlling the ball nearly four quarters. The U. of D. frosh came out ahead 7 to in a battle that was touch and go for sixty minutes. The Secorymen produced some of the fire made famous by previous Bronco squads. The annual encounter with the Michigan State College freshmen produced a Spartan eleven of speed and power that the Brown and Gold could not match. M. S. C. power plays and line smashes gave the East Lansing team a 14 to win. In the line there was plenty of weight and power in Metzger, Eggertson, Grippen, Jenkins, Mathewson, Griffin, Klepper, Buss, Foster, and Balzell. In the backfield were Streje, Alexan- der, Cross, Boyer, McNutt, Strigas and Wilber, all of whom are varsity possibilities. Metzger and Jenkins were elected co-cap- tains.

FROSH DRILL ON FUNDAMENTALS AND TEAMPLAY • Although the freshmen basketball team end- ed the season with seven defeats and no vic- tories, the improvement of the team as the sea- son progressed was on encouraging factor and the squad showed definite possibilities of fu- ture varsity material. Coach John Gill drilled his squad in fun- damentals throughout the season and experi- mented with various combinations in hopes of turning in some wins. Many times they flashed real class and displayed a polished brand of basketball. The season opened with a 42-28 set-back at the hands of the Wayne University frosh stars. Alma ' s frosh proved too tough and chalked up a 50-31 victory. In the third game, the Bronco yearlings clicked and pressed Muske- gon Junior College to a 32-29 count, with the Jaycees winning out. W Club, composed of several former frosh team stars and other good players, in their annual game with the Gillmen turned on the speed and nipped them 28-21. The season closed with three defeats: Alma 45, Frosh 39; Muskegon Junior College 31, Frosh 27; Wayne 43, Frosh 25. Royal Bud Grippen, former State High floorman, was elected honorary captain by the numeral winners. NUMERAL WINNERS: The eleven freshmen who were voted nu- merals were Howard Bale, Lawton; Arnold Bal- zell, Ionia; Robert Farmer, St. Joseph; Bud Grip- pen, Kalamazoo; Basil Johnson, Delton; Adrian Klepper, Kalamazoo; Jack Matheson, St. Clair Shores; Doyle Moberly, Antioch, Calif.; Jack McNutt, Kalamazoo; Richard Sterling, Kalama- zoo; and Marshall Stewart, Kalamazoo.

FROSH NINE OUTSHINE ALL WESTERN YEARLING TEAMS • Western State ' s 1939 Frosh baseball team in their first game defeated Alma College varsity by the score of 8 to 5.

Bud Plant, Portland left hander, looked very good also as he finished the game. Ivan Fleser, Burnips outfielder, led the hit- ting for the day with a triple and two singles. Bob Metzer and Bob Jenkins smashed out two hits each with the former getting a triple and a double. In their second game, the greenies con- tinued their hard hitting by trouncing Grand Rapids Junior College by the score of 15 to 2. The Broncos smashed out 16 safe blows, includ- ing home runs by Matthewson and Fleser, and never were in danger.

FROSH TENNIS TEAM IS WELL BALANCED • The freshmen tennis team again appeared to be a strong aggregation. Coach Frank Householder tutored his first year prospects over an extended pre-season development period and many of them flashed great promise. The squad seemed to have balance from the onset and as the season progressed it developed more steadiness. In their first match of the year, the yearlings encountered the strong Grand Rapids Junior College team at Grand Rapids. The Jaycees in the earlier part of the season had given the Broncos Varsity stiff competition thus making the freshies decided under-dogs. Although Eugene Russell, Norbert Ciaglo, and Leonard Felts gave their opponents three hard set matches, the locals ' doubles team of Ciaglo and Donald Bittenbender were the only Broncos to chalk up a victory. The Frosh, how- ever, were not beaten as badly as the score may indicate, for they were capable of extra set pressure and displayed much team balance. Householder ' s boys concluded their season with matches against Michigan State College Freshmen in a home and home series, and a single contest against Wayne University Fresh- men. SHADOWS OF THE 1938 SEASON • Coach Frank Householder ' s 1938 Freshmen netters faced a difficult schedule, but never-the-less they gave great hopes for the future by making it a very successful season. Only once did Western ' s greenies meet an opponent that could subdue their well balanced team. Th e results of the 1938 freshmen matches are: Battle Creek 1 Battle Creek 1 Michigan State Freshmen 3 Michigan State Freshmen 2 Grand Rapids Junior College 7 Wayne Freshmen The freshmen numeral winners for the 1938 tennis season are as follows: Ralph Linder, William Taylor, Floyd Zavitz, John Vander Meiden, and Richard Spencer.

FROSH TRACKMEN SHOW ABILITY TO FOLLOW VARSITY ' S STEPS • Although losing their first two meets of the season, Coach Towner Smith ' s freshmen track team has shown fine team balance as well as uncovering future varsity material. In the annual Interclass Meet and relays, the Frosh were nosed out by a strong Sopho- more team. Outstanding running by Aland Martin, Robert Carter, and Jack Reynolds en- abled the first-year men to capture the eight lap relay in the time 1:59. Wayne University ' s strong freshmen team handed the Bronco colts their first defeat 52 ' 2 to 421 2. h® Smithmen who were able to place first in their events were Wayne Finkbeiner in the mile, Carl Rauch in the half mile, and Jack Reynolds in the 220 yard dash and high jump. Michigan State broke three meet records when they downed the locals 65 2 3 to 29 1 3. Reynolds ' 91 4 points was high for the Broncos with the relay team of Quick, Crum, Adams, and Reynolds also turning in a fine performance. Coach Towner Smith ' s freshmen tracksters took to the road to open their outdoor season and were defeated by Grand Rapids Junior College 79 to 43. The bright spot of the con- test was Wayne Finkbeiner ' s double win for the Smithmen to take high-point honors of the meet. He strided over the mile distance in 4:42.9 and later raced over the finish line in the half mile in the good time of 2:6.4. Veenkamp, in winning the 440-yard dash in 52.1 also looked good. Other local winners were: Quick in the 220-yard dash, Regedanz in the shot put, and Crum, Weissner, Adams, and Veenkamp in the one mile relay. Tie team strength of the Bronco freshmen was displcryed at Albion when the locals gar- nered 101 points against 21 points for the Albion freshmen. Regedanz was high-point man by copping firsts in the discus and the shot put and taking second in the broad jump to total 13 points. Doyle Moberly was next high with 10 1 3 points. The schedule was concluded with the State Intercollegiate Meet, and a meet with Ohio Uni- versity Freshmen (telegraphic). Members of this year ' s freshmen track squad are: William Adams, Robert Berg, Robert Bul- lard, Robert Carter, Raymond Clark, Donald Cline, Peter Crum, Duane Fox, Wayne Fink- beiner, Jack Hayes, Robert Krall, Aland Martin, John Meyers, Doy le Moberly, Charles Quick, Lewis Rand, Carl Rauch, Richard Regedanz, Donald Roti Roti, Walter Semeyn, Robert Van Voorhees, Frederick Veenkamp, Harold Wiess- ner. 1938 FROSH TRACK During the 1938 track season the freshmen enjoyed much succe?s by winning three out of four meets. Gairit Stukkie proved the outstanding performer of the year by his splendid running in the dashes, the hurdles, and on the relay team. The results of the 1938 season are as follows: Western State Freshmen 33 Wayne University Freshmen 61 Western State Freshmen 58 Fort Wayne High School 28 Western State Freshmen 63 Grand Rapids Junior College 59 Western State Freshmen 64 Jackson High School 38 Numeral winners for 1938 are: Richard Anderson, Oscar Branson, Harry Browne, Jack Halstead; Elford Pedler, Vernon Ross, Conrad Shoberg, Gordan Smith, Garrit Stukkie, Edward Spasek, DeForrest Walton, Donald Wilbur, Edwin Zdunczyk, Howard Darrow.

FINKBEINER LEADS FROSH HARRIERS • Coach Towner Smith ' s freshmen cross-country squad was paced by Wayne Finkbeiner, who led the greenies in their two meets of the season and showed much promise for future varsity competition. The Bronco ' s first-year squad opened the season as hosts to a well-balanced Wayne U. freshman team that clinched the meet by finishing closely grouped behind Finkbeiner, who ran the 3.4 miles course in the excellent time of 19.20 minutes. On November fourth, Western ' s first year men went to East Lansing to meet the perennially strong M. S. C. frosh. Although Finkbeiner ran his usual fine race, by placing third, the other squad members were unable to best the Spartan runners. Again Finkbeiner distinguished himself in the Michigan A. A. U. run by placing 23rd in a record entry of fifty-four harriers. Wayne Finkbeiner was elected honorary captain.

FROSH GOLFERS BLANK KAIAMAZOO COLLEGE FROSH • Bad weather gave Coach John Dill ' s fresh- men golfers a delayed start, but upon the ar- rival of warm weather, the boys began swing- ing their clubs and produced results. The Bronco freshmen opened their season against the crack Kalamazoo Central High School foursome at Maple Hills. The greenies proved steady under competition and showed up well as future varsity material. Raymond Lorenz with a score of 76, provided the high- light of the match. Although the Broncos lost the match by the score of 4 ' 2 to 71 2, the team ' s balanced strength was an encouraging feature, for the remainder of the squad had scores in the low 80 ' s. The frosh encountered another local team when they met St. Augustine High School, but this time the Dillmen were more successful in match play and turned back their opponents by the score of 16 1 2 to II 2. William Leapley turned in low-score honors on this occasion with a sparkling 77. In a return match with Kalamazoo Central High School squad, the first-year men showed much improvement by revenging a previous defeat. The freshmen squad hit their stride and all members turned in scores in the low 80 ' s while Leaply carded a 76. Match score. West- ern Freshmen 91 2, Kalamazoo Central High School 21 2. The freshmen golfers from Kalamazoo Col- lege were next to meet Dill ' s foursome, however, they offered little opposition to the steady play of Lorenz, Leapley, Philip Link, and Charles Sny- der. The match resulted in an overwhelming win for the Bronco ' s who scored 12 points to the Hornets 0. In concluding the 1939 season the freshmen met in return matches both St. Augustine High School and Kalamazoo College Freshmen. Mr. Dill ' s freshmen golfers of this season are: Raymond Lorenz, Donald Van De Carr, Keith Nickerson, William Leapley, Charles Snyder, and Philip Link. 1938 FROSH GOLF During the 1938 golf season, the freshmen under Coach Fred Huff again showed promise and went through their schedule of games with much success. The 1938 matches and scores are as follows: Western Freshmen 14 ' 2 Hope Freshmen 1 2 Western Freshmen 4 Muskegon Junior College 8 Western Freshmen 7 Muskegon Junior College 5 The numeral w inners of last year are: Wayne Falan, Joseph Modgis, Llewellyn Gray, and Law rence Stockford. Page Otic Hundred INTRAMURAL ATHLETICS INTEREST IN INTRAMURAL SPORTS PROGRAM GROWS • The men ' s intramural sports program, under the direction of Mr. Charles Maher, provided all non-varsity and freshmen squad members with sports competition in touch football, basketball, boxing, wrestling, handball, and volleyball. About six hundred and fifty men engaged in spirited rivalry dur- ing the intramural sports year. The spring intramural sports program was necessarily changed due to the lack of a nearby Softball field caused by the encroachment of the new building program. A volleyball tournament was substituted for the usual Softball series. END RUN . . . TOUCHDOWN The first intramural activity to absorb student interest was the touch-football games between the men organizations on the campus. This fall under the direction of Charles Maher the spirit was high as the boys came together each Saturday morning for seven weeks. A few sore legs, black eyes, ripped clothes, and bruised spots and the Industrial Arts team came out ahead by virtue of no losses after defeating the Omega Delta Phi Fraternity in the title playoff. The feature of the winning team was the accurate passing of the Runk brothers. The champion ' s lineup included: Edward Wilds, John Maddocks, Kenneth Kolberg, Lester Runk, Myles Runk, Carl Mosberg, Spencer Van Valkenberg, Gale Brieves, John Sluka, Phillip Moran, Arthur Quin, and Walter Krueger. FOUL . . . TWO SHOTS The Industrial Arts boys certainly had no shavings on their feet or sawdust in their eyes when they squeezed out the W Club for the intramural basketball club championship by swamping Miller ' s Frosh, These woodwork speedsters, led by Freeland and Van der Meiden, worked around the hardwood court in fine style. Both the Intramural football and basketball championships have been won by this group of high spirited boys from the Industrial Arts Union. Others on the team were John Sluka, Edward Wilds, Spencer Von Valkenburgh, Joseph Karell, Lee Neidlinger, and Kenneth Kolberg. CHANGE SERVICE . . . SCORE 17-12 During the winter term many men participated in a handball tournament under Mr. Maher ' s direction. Walter Oberlin and Al Mazer handily won in their respective bracket playoffs, and later battled each other for the school championship in a hotly-contested match that Oberlin won by the best two out of three games. KNOCKOUTS AND TIME LIMITS After several weeks of preparation and eliminations the boxing and wrestling season was climaxed by an evening of haymakers and toe-holds through which only a champion could survive. The participants showed much ability, and it was a very successful season with Gordon Goyt in charge of boxing and Dominick Farina taking charge of the wrestlers. The wrestling title champions are as follows: Max Damoth, featherweight; Gordon Goyt, lightweight; John Tansky, welterweight; Robert Southard, middleweight; and Vince Strigas and Kenneth Fricke drew on the heavyweight division. In boxing, the champions are: Vern Baugher, welterweight; Norbert Ciaglo, middleweight; and Jack Stridl, heavyweight. NO SOFTBALL Because of Western ' s building program the old softball field has been torn up, necessitating a cancellation of the annual spring softball tournament.

WOMEN ' S PHYSICAL EDUCATION ASSOCIATION VIRGINIA SAUNDERS President BETTY MULDER Vice-president EUNICE GUTHRIE Secretary BETTY WINEBRENNER Treasurer • Every girl on campus is welcome to join the Women ' s Phys- ical Education Association and to enjoy and to participate in its many and varied activities. The bi-monthly meetings are carefully planned for the interest and entertainment of the members. The fall term activities consisted of a roast at Wolfe Lake, a Homecoming luncheon, a lecture and demonstration by Miss Craig, a handicraft instructor in Kalamazoo, with the Christmas Party in December concluding the activities for the term. A sleigh-ride party, a song contest, and the annual mid- winter dinner were the highlights of the winter term. Enter- taining programs were also given by the Sophomore and Junior members. At the first meeting of the spring term the Association enter- tained the W Club, Dr. Ernest Burnham speaking and volley- ball following. Isle Awhile was the theme for the formal, held April 21. The Senior program, the overnight hike, and the June Breakfast climaxed the activities of the year. Social dancing lessons were offered under the direction of Miss Gard- ner throughout the year. Page One Hundred Two DANCE CLUB ADDS CLEVER ROUTINES TO MID-WINTER • One of the oldest organizations has just completed a very successful year t hat far outbalanced any previous year. The Dance Club highlighted their year by their initial participation in the midwinter play, Of Thee I Sing. The novel dances definitely displayed their sense of rhythm and possession of motor skills that serve as prerequisites for membership to this group. This club, under the skillful direction of Miss Elizabeth Gardner, meets bi-monthly at 5:00 o ' clock on Tuesdays. Both modern and classical interpretations are a part of the reper- toire of the twenty select members. Though open to all Western coeds, only those having a definite interest and being blessed with certain motor skills are chosen as members. The luncheon date with Hanya Holm, the famed German dancer, was no doubt the outstanding social event of the year. The Davis room was the scene of the Chocolate for the prospec- tive members and on March 8 an initiation dinner was given in the Van Gogh room for the ten new members. Even small children have rhythm and enjoy dancing, so it was revealed when the Dance Club began Saturday morning rhythm classes for the children of the Training School. Dance presentations and a lecture demonstration for the Kalamazoo Elks Club terminated this red-letter year for the Dance Club. BETTE SMITH President HARRIET BOSS Vice-president MARY NOWLIN Secretary -Treasurer The Dancers forming a circle around Mary Ellen Leszynski are, starling -with Mary Nowlin in the twelve o ' clock position and reading clockwise, Bette Smith, Harriett Boss, Alice Drake, Alene Hodge, Wmnona Brooks, Helen Hewitt, Wilma Micholas, Gertrude Delaney, Frances DeHaan, Edythe Brenner, Corinne Van Gosten, Margaret Straly, and Betty Romance. l a e One Hundred Three BADMINTON AND TENNIS ARE POPULAR SPORTS TENNIS • As soon as weather permits in the spring the tennis courts are kept in use by the lovers of this sport. Several classes are offered in the spring term. Large attendance in these classes prove the interest girls have taken in tennis. The girls in the picture below are those who came out for varsity tennis. A preliminary tournament is run off among these girls to de- termine the team which completes in the inter- collegiate tennis tournament on Western ' s cam- pus June 1, 2, and 3. Miss Vestal of the Women ' s Physical Education Department is the varsity tennis coach. BADMINTON • Because of its increasing popularity as a favorite indoor sport the Women ' s Physical Ed- ucation Department offered a class in badmin- ton during the winter term. The class met on Saturday afternoons from one to four in the Women ' s Gymnasium under Miss Merson ' s and Miss Hussey ' s supervision. Instruction was given to both beginners and advanced students. Nets, roquets and shuttlecocks were furnished by the Physical Education Depart- ment. The members of this class enjoyed them- selves a great deal and really appreciated the opportunity offered them. Girls playing badminton are: Cecile Tones, Jean Burg, Bet- ty Sorensen, Alyce Bosker, and Mono Dunkelberger. TENNIS SOUAD Top Row — Mary Alice Parris, Dorothy Johnson.

T-wo of the snapshots that stand out are the silhouette pictures of some coeds on their over-night ac- tivity. The three tennis shots pic- ture the girls in their tennis classes and also in their contests for the tennis team. The baseball diamond at Walwood Place and Davis Street comes in for its share of the pic- tures. In the center picture we have two golfers. In the picture below the golfers we have the girl re- sponsible for these snaps, Cecile Jones. The steps of the Women ' s Gym are shown along with several bloomered gals in another pic. Near the top of the panel, in the center, is a picture that can be re- versed quite easily. The tumbling picture could be either side up, ex- cept that houses can ' t stand on their head. Well, that concludes the commen- tary about these snapshots . . . Page One Hundred Five Dance pictures, personality shots, atmosphere snaps, and action shots compose this panel of coed sport snapshots. The Hawaii theme of the dance is captured in the top picture and one of the left side pictures. Two pictures depict some of the coeds tumbling. Perhaps you can idetnify them, we tried to. In the lower left, a dozen sport- sters pose on the Gym steps. And in the upper left, three girls put on a cross between a flirt and sob- bing sister skit. A picture we should inspect quite closely is the one of Teacher frying an egg for her breakfast, the morn of the hike. Examine it very carefully and watch her technique. After a strenuous game of field hockey, the girls head back up the hill to the Gym, and the second picture from the top on the right catches the girls enroute. Speaking about technique, have you glimpsed another Teacher holding her paper cup. Dainty but firm.

If you like basketball here is a grand chance for you to enjoy your- self playing it. You don ' t have to be an expert at the game to make a team, intramurals are for everyone. This year there were twenty-four teams representing various organizations and zones on campus who participated in intra- mural basketball which is sponsored during the winter term through the efforts of Miss Worner, head of the Women ' s Physical Education De- partment. They played for fun and had a grand time. Zone 3 (below) defeated Senate in the championship game. SWIMMING • Into the pool — splash! Let ' s go swimming. It ' s fun, and you can go the year around. If you can ' t swim, join one of the swimming class- es and learn how. Besides being a pleasure, to be able to swim is a valuable asset. Come and plunge with your friends in the plunge hour which is offered every Tuesday. An in- structor, Miss Mersen, is present to supervise and to give any assistance wanted. One may also learn life saving if one wishes to carry their swimming that far. The girls below re- ceived their examinership and instructorship in Red Cross Life Saving work.

BEAGLE GUIDES COUNCIL • The Student Council under the capable leadership of Kenneth Beagle has completed another successful year of service and achieve- ment as representative and coordinator of the student activities of Western State Teachers College. The Council has efficiently cooperated with the building program in progress on the cam- pus. Added to its annual Homecoming events in the fall, was the council ' s part in the dedica- tion of Walwood Hall which opened the new offices and com.mittee room for the center of council activities. During the year the council directed a Stadium Fund Campaign which proved important in swelling financial support to Waldo Stadium. Matching material progress in a growing college, the council was responsible for insti- gating two innovations into the curriculum. Beginning with the winter term of this year a course in marriage and its relations was of- fered. Another new step was the abolishment of granting school awards for student partici- pation in music, debate, and student council. This was accomplished in conjunction with the Awards committee and the Student Activities committee. One of the outstanding accomplishments of the council this year in the interest of change and development of the college was the revi- sion of the Constitution of the Student Associa- tion. The council wishes to express its appre- ciation to the faculty and the student body for their fine cooperation in helping the council to accomplish the many projects which it has undertaken during the past year.

The Men ' s Union, whose purpose is to encourage and foster a spirit of fellowship among the men of Western, is composed of all the men of the college, who are recognized by a Union ensignia pin. The headquarters of the organization are in the Union Building, the hub of college life, and they consist of a large, tastily-furnished lounge room and a game room, sporting two ping-pong tables and two pool tables. A billiard table, checker tables, newspapers, magazines, radio, chess boards, Chinese checkers, and many other facilities make the rooms the center of men ' s activities. The first activity of the 1938-39 calendar was the sponsoring of the Senior Brother Movement to aid the incoming freshmen during the adjustment period of the first week on campus. Bob Loew, the wigglish cheerleader, headed the Senior Broth- ers. Harold Benge was chairman of the Union ' s part in the co-sponsored Homecoming Dance with the Women ' s League. Six hundred couples danced (cut the rug) to the music of Barney Rapp and his New Englanders. On December second the Men ' s Union Formal, with Tony Malinowski in charge, was swung in Walwood Hall. The exhibition of Mr. Peterson, World ' s Billiard Champ, the Men ' s Assembly, the unreeling of the motion pictures of the off-campus football games, all added to bring out the Union ' s purpose on Western ' s campus. Page One Hundred Twelz-i I i The Men ' s Union conducted t ' wo ping-pong tournaments and they were packed with enthusiasm and spirit. Close to one hundred men participated and needless to say, the rivalry was high. The two tables in the Game Room were always available to men of Western, and upon these two tables two champions w ere crowned. Milton Ruehl, featuring his con- sistent game, won one tournament, while Bob Feather, dis- playing his ability to drive and fake his shots, won the other tourney. In this picture they are about to start a friendly game. The Men ' s Union dance was styled after Kay Kyser ' s Musical Klass of Dance. The merry dancers packed the Ballroom. This picture is a small cross-section of gay crowd. The Lounge proved a popular place during the year. This picture, snapped one afternoon, fully typifies the atmosphere of the Lounge. Several fellows are playing the radio and several are reading magazines ( Esquires ). In this picture, Norm Snyder is sighting to pocket a ball, while Kelly Adams is watching. Snyder won the pool tourney, defeating Adams for the medal. Page One Hundred Thirteen Mrs. Bertha S.

Davis. With such a beautiful room to enjoy, the Women ' s League was head- ed for a most successful year during 1938-39. Fall . . . the excitement of Freshmen Days opened the fall term. The Senior Sisters, under the excellent guidance of Alberdene Frick, took care of the Freshmen women very well. As always, Dutch Treats, theater parties, and teas welcomed the new women to the campus. At the first tea of the year on September 28, the formal dedication of the Women ' s League Room to Bertha S. Davis was held. On October 8 the Women ' s League, cooperating with the Men ' s Union, sponsored the Homecoming Dance, Barney Rapp ' s orchestra furnishing the music. On October 13 the Who ' s Who Party afforded still another opportunity for the women on campus to become ac- quainted. Goblins, witches, and many weird creatures ap- peared at the Women ' s Gymnasium on October 28, the night of the Hobgoblin Haunt — the Women ' s League Masquerade Party. The Christmas Chocolate, closing the fall term activities, was held for the first time in Walwood Hall — hot chocolate, Christmas carols, and dancing. Winter . . . opened with the Women ' s League Council entertaining the Faculty Women and Faculty Dames at a tea on February 2. The climax of the year came on February 18, when the Women ' s League under the direction of Dorothy Munger held their annual Women ' s League Formal. Celebrat- ing the twenty-fifth anniversary of the Women ' s League, it was fittingly called the Silver Anniversary Ball. There were two orchestras, one playing in the ballroom, and the other in the cafeteria. Spring . . . the Mothers ' Tea — always a nice occasion when the women of the college invite their mothers to be their guests. Alta Jane Francoise headed the June Breakfast committees and although June On The Hilltop was sung from another hill, the year ended leaving pleasant memories and associations of the Women ' s League. Page One Hundred Fifteen Enjoying a weekly Woman ' s League tea are Rosemary Cosgroye, Betty Ingling, Doris Fredlund, Gol- da Stimpson, Helen Ingersoll, Betty Connor, Marcella Murphy, Estelle telle Ouigley, and Dorothy Schulte.

Page One Hundred Sixteen Editor-in-chief Willis Bullard, first to edit V estern ' s all-student newspaper, thinks over his assignments for the coming week. A STUDENT HERALD MAKES ITS BOW AT WESTERN • The fall of 1938 brought many changes to Western ' s campus, not the least of which was the change in the TEACHERS COL- - LEGE HERALD. The HERALD had been established in 1916 as the official college newspaper, appearing weekly under the editorship of Miss Blanche Draper, and later Mr. Homer Dun- ham, both of the college publicity department. Number 1 of Volume XXIII appeared on the familiar stand in the hall of the Administration building on September 22, and the first HERALD to be written, edited, published, and print- ed entirely by students had become a reality. Under the editor- ship of Willis Bullard, a senior who had had previous newspa- per training, the publication grew and flourished, and success- fully passed its trial period of a year, winning recognition from both national college press associations which had been joined. During the year, the editor was assisted by an untiring group of students who gave unselfishly of their time and ability that the ideal of a student newspaper might be carried out. Those who served as chief assistants during the year were those who at one time or another acted as associate editors, including Naoma Buckley, Lyle Chenoweth, Charles Churchill, Thomas Cook, Gale Cosgrove, Eugene O ' Toole, Christine Rupe, and DeForrest Walton. A special project during the year was the sponsoring of a campus poetry contest, in which prizes donated by the HERALD were won by Joyce Mclntyre, Dorothy Jean Haskell, and Mar- garet Evelyn Smith. In the fall, a trip to the Western-University of Detroit football game had been sponsored and financed by the HERALD. Page One Hnudrcd Seventeen h-, Ye Olde Editor Willis BuUard explains, the intricacies of page lay-out (at upper left) to the budding associate editors: Tom Cook and Naoma Buckley, associate news editors; Lyle Chenoweth, associate sports editor; and Charles Churchill, associate news and feature editor. Having paused in their strenuous pu rsuit of chasing athletic teams over the country (upper right), part of the sports staff, Murl Connor, DeForrest Walton, and Lyle Chenoweth, rest in the sun before the gym. (At lower left) Charles Churchill, associate feature editor, discusses the feature page with the authors of its contents: James Moore, Janet Tindall, Betty Lou Palmer, Al Shaw, and Eerie Willford. The sad state of affairs of the world as reflected in the pages of the HERALD cause brows to wrinkle and sighs to be heaved in this serious-minded group of news-writers (at lower right): John Wismer, Phyllis Lampman, Robert Allen, Blanche Duffield, and Elsie Kohlenstein. While pictures v ere being taken, Ed Groborchik and Bob Smith, staff artists, were busy working on art for the next issue. Frances Pikkaart was busily covering a tennis match, while Alice Gernant and Jack Ricker chased down some hot news tips. Don McCook, Mary Moore, and Bob Muncie of the feature staff were not around, and Don Jones of the advertising staff was selling a page spread. Work must go on, so Adeline Erdt hides away to proofread, foregoing her chance to be photographed. Page Otic Hundred Eiglitccn EMBRYONIC GREELEYS VISIT PRISON AND RETURN (!) • Between deadlines, the members of the HERALD staff found time to enjoy life as a group. Among the activities which were carried on was a staff ban- quet in January, at which Dean Ray C. Pellett showed motion pictures of modern newspaper and book publishing. In February, a score of journalists were taken to East Lansing for the convention of the Michigan College Press Asso- ciation, where Editor BuUard headed a round-table discussion on news values and coverage. A trip to the office of the SPECTATOR, inmate newspaper at Jackson Prison, was made in May. Later in the month, several staff members journeyed to Chicago to witness the operation of metropolitan dailies at first hand. A gala banquet near the end of the term brought a satisfying climax to the year of pioneering. The year saw several special editions. The first was an eight-page Home- coming-Dedication issue. Guests at the fall football banquet found a special edition beside their plates. When the time came for the spring elections, an edition containing the complete results was prepared in time to be handed out at the election dance that evening. A special baseball supplement was printed and handed out as programs at the dedication of Hyames Field in May. Near the end of the term, the women of the college published a Hen issue, undefiled by musculine labor. At upper left, a group of the business staff pause in their activities.

Page One Hundred Twenty YOURS TRULY, THE BROWN AND GOLD STAFF • In the creation of a better annual, one that will please the students and give them a permanent record of the many fine things that are done at college, cooperation, diligence and organization become the prime necessities. It becomes the job of the editor to direct the multitude of activities demand- ed in the production of the year-book. He and his staff assume the responsi- bilities of sales, production and distribution of the Brown and Gold. It is to be hoped that this year ' s book will be welcomed in a spirit that will equal the wholehearted drive that has made it possible. Stopping in at the B. and G. office at any hour of the day reveals each staff member undertaking an entirely different thing. Watch them, it ' s fun, educational and something a little out of the ordinary. We start out with the key-men of the group, those who guided the work of the staff members and assisted the editor-in-chief Herbert Auer in formulat- ing policies and methods, George Van de Lester, Harold Baker, Kirk Hunt and Betty Lou Palmer.

Page One Hundred Twenty-one KAPPA DELTA PI HOSTS TO YPSILANTI SOCIETY ALTA JANE FRANCOISE President LEON BURGOYNE Vice President FRANCES FRENCH Secretary EDWIN HAIRE Treasurer • Kappa Delta Pi is an active national honorary society in education. Beta Iota is the local chapter and is one of more than one hundred and ten institutional chapters which hove in all a membership of over thirty thousand. Membership to Kappa Delta Pi is limited to those juniors and seniors of high scholastic standing with a minimum re- quirement in the field of education. The scholastic standing of the candidates is not alone considered. Such qualities as leadership, personality and service are also stressed. Kappa Delta Pi strives to encourage high intellectual and scholastic standards and to recognize and encourage outstand- ing contributions to education. This year Kappa Delta Pi set a new precedent by entering a prize-winning float in the homecoming parade. In the fall term the Chocolate was given for all freshmen who had been honor students in high school. In the winter term Kappa Delta Pi, in cooperation with Dr. Hilliard, sponsored a one-day trip to the National meeting of the Progressive Education Association held at Detroit. The winter term also saw seventeen members added, their initiation ban- quet being held at Walwood Hall. Twelve members of Ypsi- lanti society attended this banquet. Another activity in which Kappa Delta Pi participated was intramural debate. The team consisted of Belle Teutsch and Fred Heuer. New members were taken in again in May and the formal initiation banquet was held. Dr. William McKinley Robinson again served as faculty adviser throughout the year. Beegie, the thinker is a KDP.

W. VALDO WEBER Secretary-treasurer • The Michigan Beta Chapter of this organization was installed upon Western ' s campus in the Spring term of 1938. Pi Gamma Mu is the national honor society in the field of Social Sciences, including Sociology, Geography, Economics, History and Politi- cal Science. Membership to the society is limited to juniors, seniors, alumni and instructors who have attained a high rank in schol- arship and who hove distinguished themselves in social studies. Students must have a high B overage in all college work and at least forty term hours credit in the social science field. The objectives of the society are: first, to stimulate and in- tensify the interest of college and university students in a scien- tific study of society; second, to make the scientific study of social questions a life interest for the members; third, to promote cooperation and unity between the various branches of social science; fourth, to popularize the scientific study of society as natural science has been popularized; fifth, to encourage the application of social science truth to the actual needs of society. The chapter is, however, not limited to students but brings the students into a much closer contact with social science in- structors. At present there are 20 faculty members as well as 40 student members. New members were formally initiated November 10 and April 17 of this school year at a banquet to which all members and alumni were invited. At these banquets an attempt is made to have specialists in the various fields of social science address the group on vital problems of the day. Dr. Berry and Mr. Moore have served as co-sponsors of this group while Dr. Weber has served as Secretary-Treasurer.

KAPPA RHO SIGMA HONORS SCIENCE STUDENTS • The honor science society known as Kappa Rho Sigma was organized by the Faculty Science Club Nov. 17, 1920. When first organized it was designated as Beta Delta Nu, the name was changed by the Science Club, May 25, 1921, to Kappa Rho Sigma. Students are elected to this Society because of high scholarship in science and mathematics. They are elected only on the unanimous vote of the Faculty Sci- ence Club. The records of prospective members are carefully scrutinized by a committee of the Science Club and each person elected must satisfy certain stand- ards of achievement. Two hundred twen- ty-six members hcn. ' e been elected to Kap- pa Rho Sigma up to April 1938.

Those elected to membership this year include: Sabina Kisielewski, Janet Schlobohm, Joyce Kabbe, Naoma Buckley, Lawrence Grosser, Warren Hyser, Dennis Traynor, John Kovton and DeForest Walton. This year the society sent delegates to Purdue University to represent it at the regional meeting of the chapters in col- leges of the middle west. Tau Kappa Alpha again sponsored its annual Freshman Extempore Contest and annual Freshman Oratory Contest; the winners of which have their names placed on an award the society has had made to promote interest in freshman speech work. Miss Anna Lindblom and Mr. Carroll Lahman, advisers this year, and Mr. Floyd Moore and Mr. Albert Becker, are faculty members of Tau Kappa Alpha.

It is composed of the men ' s and women ' s debate coaches, the men ' s and women ' s de- bate managers, and representatives of each of the campus societies actively interested in de- bate. The chairman of the board for the past year was Warren Hyser, men ' s debate man- ager. The intramural debate tournament was con- ducted by James Moore, filling the absence of Hyser, who was ill during the tournament. The following people composed the Forensic Board: Warren Hyser, men ' s debate manager; James Moore; George Agar, International Relations Club; Margaret Bartfay, Inglis Club; Virginia Gilm ore, Pi Kappa Rho; Mary Hooker, Acad- emy; John Kovtan, Commerce Club; George Lintemuth, Phi Sigma Rho; Richard Loss, Omega Delta Phi; Betty Olin, Theta Pi Alpha; Arlene Rector, Kappa Delta Pi; EInora Strahan, women ' s debate manager.

Page One Hundred Twenty-eight VARSITY MEN DEBATERS TRAVEL FAR IN THEIR CONQUESTS Resolved: that the United States should cease the use of public funds (including credit) for the purpose of stim- ulating business. • Coach Albert B. Becker faced the year with a few seasoned debaters and many inexperienced debaters and he moulded a squad that did Western proud. The 1938 squad was riddled by graduation and on the basis of tryouts a squad of sixteen was chosen for the season. Inexperience slowed the squad down early in the year but im- provement was rapid and the teams made a strong finish. During the season a total of one hundred and nine inter- collegiate debates were held of which only seventeen were non-decision. Of the eighty-two decision debates, Western won forty-four. The season ' s program also included participation in oratory, extempore speaking, and discussion contest as well as a radio appearance.

FROSH MEN DEBATERS SEE PLENTY OF ACTION • Due to an exceptionally large squad, the Freshman Men ' s Debaters were given many opportunities for speech develop- ment this year. The entire squad participated in the State Tournament at Michigan State College with the teams breaking even in this exchange of debates. The teams of Kenyon Nistle and Robert Freeman and Robert Dodge and Robert Eldridge had dual de- bates with Grand Rapids Junior College and won four of the eight debates. The best record of the year was compiled by the combina- tion of Roy Rowan and Lloyd Havens who were undefeated throughout the season. This combination and Edward Cleve- land and Roy Castetter, another good duo, debated with the University of Detroit and participated in the three day Delta Sigma Rho tournament at Madison, Wisconsin. Two varsity debaters, Kenneth Beagle and fames Moore, helped Coach Becker in guiding the neophytes to their fine record for the year. The Freshman Men ' s Dehsite Squad consisted of Roy Castetter, Edward Cleveland, Robert Dodge, Robert Eldridge, Robert Freeman, Lloyd Havens, Robert Mahoney, Kenyon Nistle, and Roy Rowan.

Patricia Smyth speaking on Socialized Medi- cine, and James Moore on National Minori- ties, effectively represented Western. Moore also participated in the Discussion contest at the Delta Sigma Rho tournament held at Madi- son, Wisconsin. In the State Oratorical Contest held at Cal- vin College, Garrett Walroth delivered his ora- tion Shadow or Reality, a consideration of Hitler. Naomi Buckley, who won the local con- test with her oration For Humanity ' s Sake, was unable to represent Western in the women ' s division of the contest because of illness. DeForrest Walton, placing first in the local Peace Oratorical contest, was chosen to speak for Western in the State Contest. His oration was entitled, Peace In Our Times. He also participated in the Delta Sigma Rho tourna- ment. Page One Hundred Thirty-four VARSITY WOMEN DEBATERS COMPETE IN 101 DEBATES • Women ' s forensic activities at Western have reached such proportions that the story of their achievements for the season can be told briefly only in summaries. First, the forms of forensic activities present quite an imposing array, including debate, ora- tory, extempore speaking, tournament discussion, and the legis- lative assembly. In the second place, the number of debaters marks a high point in the history of debate, with eighteen mem- bers on the varsity and nine on the Freshman squad, totalling twenty-seven in all. In the third place, debating alone has grown to one hundred one debates for the season ' s total. Lastly, while debates have multiplied, the numbers of debaters in- creased, and the general program of forensic activity has broadened, there is significant evidence that the calibre of de- bating done on this large scale has not deteriorated; witness the fact that Western women stand well ahead of their rivals with a string of victories rating nearly two to one over their competitors.

PI KAPPA RHO WINS INTRAMURAL DEBATE TITLE Dorothy Schlobohm and Mary Berkey upheld Academy ' s de- bating reputation. • Pi Kappa Rho debaters upset Academy this year to take the coveted cup donated by the Kalamazoo County Bar Association. Academy has received this award for the past three years. Ten organizations entered teams this year in the annual Intramural debate tournament conducted by the Forensic Board. Academy, Commerce Club, Inglis Club, Kappa Delta Pi, French Club, Omega Delta Phi, Phi Sigma Rho, Pi Kappa Rho, Theta Chi Delta, Theta Pi Alpha, and the Y. W. C. A. debaters were represented as they debated on the question: Resolved, that a system of socialized medicine be adopted, making available to all, complete medical care at public expense. Four teams entered the semi-finals: Academy, negative, Dorothy Schlobohm and Mary Berkey; Inglis Club, affirmative, Manley Brown and Daniel Coyne; Pi Kappa Rho, negative, Ruth Ohst and Rosa- mund Greene; and Kappa Delta Pi, affirmative, Fred Heuer and Belle Teutsch. In the final round Academy and Pi Kappa Rho vied with each other and Pi Kappa Rho won an unani- mous decision. The judges for the debate were at- torneys John H. Bloem, Reint P. Schurer, and David E. Nims, all members of the Lawyers Club of Kala- mazoo. The Tournament was open, as usual, only to those debaters who had not participated in inter- collegiate meets. Page One Huntircd Forty Cryan W. S. T. C. ENTERS INTERPRETIVE READING CONTEST • Again we finish the year with a richer experience and a depth of appreciation for the state-wide Interpretive Reading Contest to which so many colleges annually send their pairs of contestants. Our representatives, chosen through several elimination contests, were Winifred Cryan, sister to last year ' s Helene, and Albert Jones, president of Players. Kalamazoo College was host and received the contestants into her cool, white Stetson Chapel. Here each interpreter dis- played his wares in one of the most difficult and truly marginal contests of the year. For poetry has behind it so much back- ground and is of such a wide variety of personalities and indi- vidual tastes that the selection of a winner is often perplexing. After much discussion, judgment finally settled on the Wayne contestant in the men ' s division. He read Abraham Lincoln and bore a singular physical resemblance to the man. Among the women the entries from Ypsi and Albion tied for first. We had expected much from our contestants and from the contest itself. We were not to be disappointed. For some truly fine and commendable work was forthcoming, and served to make the day worthwhile. Barbara Smith and Ken Wilson represented Western in a distinctly new kind of interpretation, one that uses prose and is comparable to extemporaneous speaking in that it is a spot reading contest. Here again some interesting work came to light. Again was apparent the old feeling that contests of this kind should not be judged because of the difficulty in selection and single outstanding interpretation, and the hope was ex- pressed that some day in the future, gatherings like this would meet for the sole purpose of entertainment. Toward late afternoon the contest closed and preparations were made for the evening festival which served to climax the day and mark a lull in activity until next year ' s events. Pcge One Hundred Forty-one PLAYERS PRESENT MUSICAL, OF THEE I SING GORDON BENEDICT ALBERT JONES President ALBERT JONES Vice President MARGUERITE SMITH Secretary KENNETH WILSON Treasurer • Players began the ' 38- ' 39 year ' s activities with the ever- looked-forward-to Homecoming Tea at which actives and alums gathered at the Playhouse for two hours of fun and gayety. The tea was in keeping with the backwoodsy theme of the play Brothers in Arms in which Al Jones, Gordon Benedict, Bar- bora Smith, and Walter Gillett took part. This has been a strong year for Players. Twenty-five pledges were taken into the club in November. This is more than the usual number taken in every year. Something very different from former years was given this year for the mid-winter play. Players with the help of the Music Department gave the production Of Thee I Sing March 1, 2, 3, and 4 in the Civic Theatre. This musical play was much in evidence all over the campus as well as Kalamazoo due to the untiring efforts seen in the publicity for Wintergreen For President, Put Love In The White House, Vote for Prosper- ity and See What You Get, and many other similar signs along with the taking of many pictures to further the political life of the candidates, and nobody could help seeing that the dear old Playhouse was actually the birthplace of John P. Wintergreen. Speaking members of the cast were: Gilhooley, Richard McGowan; Maid, Mary Hooker; Lippman, Albert Gou- dreau; Fulton, Albert Jones; Senator Robert E. Lyons, Clifford Foster; Senator Carver Jones, Walter Gillett; Alexander Throttle- bottom, William Smith; John P. Wintergreen, Gordon Benedict; Jenkins, Harold Niles; Diana Devereaux, Doris Romence and Esther McElwain; Mary Turner, Barbara Smith and Dorothy Waldo, Chief Justice, Arthur Bultman; Miss Benson, Mae Bluhm; Guides, Virginia Gilmore and Virginia Zuber; French Ambas- sador, Philip Proud and Melvin DeLoof; Senate Clerk, Orville Babcock; Senator from Massachusetts, Sherman Lloyd. Following the final performance of the play an Inaugural Ball was held at the Civic for all members of the cast at which dancing was enjoyed and refreshments were served. Players have had a most successful year and owe a deep appreciation to Miss Shaw, their director, adviser, and sponsor who has been a source of inspiration throughout the year.

Gor- don Benedict, president, is talking over important matters with his fellow officers. Secretary Marguerite Smith is busy taking notes while Vice-president Al Jones listens attentively and Treasurer Ken Wilson meditates on financial problems. Gordon Benedict graduated at the end of the winter term and Al Jones took over the presidency. In the lower left picture, Bill Smith watches his facial ex- pressions change as he applies make-up. In the lower right Celestia Westfall, Vivian Moeke, and Mae Bluhm examine some of the wardrobe from the mid-winter play. Page One Hundred Forty-four ACTION FROM OF THEE I SING • Wintergreen in the upper left is entangled in matrimonial affairs by Mary Turner aided by the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court while the cabinet watches from the left. The Supreme Court Judges nod approvingly against a background of militant chorus girls and escorts. The Ambassador from France and his musical guards in the lower left appear to entangle the President in foreign affairs. The secretaries, Mrs. Wintergreen, and the cabinet all stand behind the chief executive as he re- fuses the exorbitant demands of the French Ambassador while the plot grows thicker. Now in the upper right the vice-president gets entangled on a foreign affair d ' amour with Miss Devereaux, recently of Louisiana. The guests ap- prove of this entanglement, as do the Frenchman, Chief Justice and his col- leagues, while Wintergreen admires the way Throttlebottom fits into the climax. In the lower right the First Lady of the Land entangles the President with domestic affairs — two of them. The Secretary of State peers between Diana Devereaux and her beaming consolation prize, as the Chief Justice leads the guests at the Inauguration Ball in singing of baby. Page One Hundred Forty-five MEN ' S GLEE CLUB SINGS IN MID-WINTER PLAY ALFRED RYLL President PHILIP PROUD Vice President ARTHUR BULTMAN Secretary HARPER MAYBEE, JR. Librarian • Promoting an interest in music among the men at Western, the Men ' s Glee Club gives them an opportunity to become acquainted with music of the highest type. This group has established an enviable record under the direction of Harper C. Maybee. Under the tutelage of Mr. Maybee, the standards of the club have been steadily increas- ing, and through his broad experience in program building, a repertoire has been established which ranges from the classic works of the old masters to the modern music of such composers as James Rogers and Oley Speaks. Perhaps the largest single undertaking of the Glee Club this year was cooperating in the presentation of the Pulitzer prize-winning musical comedy, Of Thee I Sing with the Players. The club meets every Monday evening and Thursday after- noon throughout the year. Some of the activities of the group this year were appearances with the Teachers College Choir on the annual Detroit trip, a concert at the Civic Auditorium, as part of the Adult Education Program, several all-day trips with appearances before high schools, and other concerts be- fore various clubs and organizations. Ensemble singing is supplemented by selections by vocal and instrumental soloists, all of whom are members of the club. Gail Russell, Elmer Sommerfeld, Harper Maybee, Jr., Melvin DeLoof, and Philip Proud performed in this capacity this year. Lee Strong and Cyril Long were accompanists. Although the training and enjoyment the men receive from singing in this organization is of much importance, the ultimate purpose is the raising of the standards of music throughout the state and carrying a mission of good will to the high schools. The men are granted awards upon the fulfillment of the awards committee ' s standards. Page One Hundred Forty-six ( r A n f.f f f  f t f f t ' • ifi i ' i ' .

Page Oitc Hundred Forty-etght WOMEN ' S GLEE CLUB MAKES MANY CONCERT TRIPS • This year has brought many opportunities for the Women ' s Glee Club to contribute to the activities of the school and to further the ideals of the organization. Sixty girls under the cap- able direction of Mrs. Dorothea Sage Snyder worked for co- operation, group responsibility, leadership, and building for music appreciation of the highest type. Some of the outstanding activities of the season were an afternoon concert at the Civic Theatre under the auspices of the Adult Education series; furnishing special Christmas num- bers at the Women ' s League Chocolate; and trips to surround- ing towns, giving formal and informal concerts. In the spring, the club was entertained at the Battle Creek Sanitarium, where the skit and formal concert were presented. As an added feature, the Women ' s Glee Club participated and cooperated with the Players in presentation of the Pulitzer- Prize musical, Of Thee I Sing. Each year the club organizes a skit featuring some particular nationality period. This year its atmosphere was old French based on Louis the Sixteenth ' s time and called La Petite Tri- anon, a story of Marie Antoinette ' s court. The girls who were especially responsible for the success of the skit are Dorothy Marsh, costuming; Alice Gernant, the play and theme; and Alice Bosker, the dances. Other factors which contributed to greater social relation- ships were the Christmas party at Mrs. Snyder ' s, at which time the club went caroling; the initiation dinner for the fresh- men; and the lovely June Breakfast, when the alumni joined the members in the fine spirit of fellowship and song, striving toward common musical ideals.

GLEE CLUB MEMBERS COMPOSE CHOIR • The Teachers College Choir is an organization of which Western is justly proud. The Choir includes members from the Men ' s and Women ' s Glee Clubs and is under the able direction of Harper C. Maybee whose wide experience in choral work has made it one of the finest choirs of its type. One Hundred Fifty-one COLLEGE ORCHESTRA PRESENTS MANY CONCERTS • The College Symphony Orchestra under the direction of Mr. George Amos is composed of approximately fifty members. Its personnel comprises not only music students but also some members of the faculty and students en- rolled in other courses. The purpose and aim of the organization is to furnish entertainment at various school functions, to afford an emotional outlet and intellectual stimu- lation for musically inclined students and to act as a cultural representative to other institutions and to society as a whole. During the year the Orchestra has taken part in various events, notably: The Messiah festival, and the Adult Education Series. It has also served as an excellent advertising medium by giving programs in the schools of neighboring communities. The orchestral repertoire is gradually being increased to include some of the great symphonic masterpieces as well as numerous compositions of the lighter classics. PERSONNEL OF W. S. T. C.

The fall term opened with the Com.merce and Business Administration majors gathered at the annual Alumni dinner on Homecoming Day. It was a source of real pleasure to talk over old times with former club m.embers — and som-ething for this year ' s graduates to look forward to in the years when they will drop in for their homecoming visit. RICHARD KENT President Ol ER McCANN Vies President 5e e;cny KATHERINE CAGNEY Treasurer The year ' s activities included a very interesting talk by Leon Miller, noted court reporter, and an entertaining lecture by Qiarles Winslow, Traffic Manager from the Kalam.azoo Cham-ber of Commerce. The club, under the leadership of the Social Committee, sponsored many social meetings. A box social, group singing and games of all descriptions furnished delightful recreation. This year, as in the previous year, the Commerce Club planned and executed a group industrial trip to Chicago. It was an experience that vdll be rem.embered with pleasure for a long tim.e. The concluding event of the year and one of the most joyful was the Spring Picnic. The last get-together provided the finest kind of fun and helped to even more firmly estabhsh a friendly understanding among those in the commercial field. All of the members wish to extend their sincere thanks to the faculty of the Commerce and Business Administration De- partments for their unfailing interest during the year.

Page One Hundred Fifty six COUNTRY LIFE CLUB HOLD 33rd RURAL PROGRESS DAY • Western ' s oldest organization, the Country Life Club, found- ed in 1904, has, during the past year, provided many extra- curricular activities for students interested in rural life. A National conference of Country Life Clubs, at their head- quarters in Lexington, Kentucky, on November 2, attracted a delegation of seven Western representatives. Large local delegations also attended tv o state conferences, the first of which was held October 16 at Hartland, and the last which met February 1st at Michigan State College, East Lansing, Michigan. One of the feature events of the year was the presentation of a radio broadcast March 9 over W.K.Z.O. The local club opened a series of two home conventions by being host March 10 at the 33rd Rural Progress Day at which time the club ' s 16th annual banquet was held. On April 29 Western ' s campus was again the center of rural life activity. At this time the Annual Michigan Country Life Conference was entertained by the local organization. To climax a year of much activity, the annual picnic drew a large and hilarious crowd of enthusiastic members. The one hundred and thirty members of the club, one of Western ' s largest organizations, wish to express their sincere gratitude to its adviser. Miss Anna L. Evans, and to the other faculty members of the Rural Department who have so ably donated in the activities of the past year.

The purpose of this organization is to provide educational and social experi- ences for the members. Association with this club means that the members secure the benefits of exchanged knowledge, an opportunity for fuller expression of educational conceptions, and the privileges that are reserved for those belonging to groups that have as their aim the cultural advancement of its members. The club is divided into ten groups, each being responsible for the program at one of the monthly meetings. An outstanding year started with a deeply appreciated lecture by Marjorie Flack, noted writer of children ' s literature. Coffee at Miss Blackburn ' s was the place and service that added joviality to the Homecoming celebration in honor of the Alumni. An entertainment was arranged and given in honor of the Later El Club and was very much admired by that group. This very active organization sponsored a live wire trip to Chicago and followed that with their Jack Frost formal. Feast- ing in plenty was the theme at their Senior-Freshmen and Sophomore-Junior banquets and then came the Annual Formal Spring Banquet, a dinner and dance that won the approval of every person fortunate enough to be there. The climax of the year was reached and a new high attained in good-fellowship at the annual picnic at Mrs. Phillip ' s cottage on Lake Michigan. The members of the Early El Club wish to thank Mrs. Phillips and Miss Blackburn, co-advisers of the group, and to express their sincere appreciation for the continued support they have made available to the club. The groups were led this year by Silvia Burkhard, Marjorie Egner, Helen Franz, Dorothy Harris, Dorothy Hetzler, Beverly Hudson, Florence Maurer, Helen Schubert, beta Schaffer, Doris VanWert.

Page 0}ie Hundred Sixty STUDENT SCIENCE CLUB HONORS THEIR PROFS. • The Student Science Club, organized in 1921, is composed of students primarily interested in the four sciences: biology, chemistry, mathematics, and physics. Programs were given by the different departments under the leadership of the chairmen: biology, John Orr; chemistry. Donna Martin; mathematics, Marguerite Morgan; and physics. Grant Bennett. Barbara Buswell was general program chair- man. Some of the most interesting programs included a talk on Numbers and the Number System by Dr. Butler, motion pictures presented by Mr. Hinds, and slide pictures of Mexico by Dr. Kenoyer. Donna Martin was chairman of the annual chocolate given after the Homecoming game. The annual dinner-dance was held at the Park-American Hotel on March 10, under the direc- tion of Helen Van Zee. The club sponsored a radio program in April, a play concerning the Artificial Heart of Dr. Alexis Carroll and Charles A. Lindbergh. One of the most important projects undertaken was the re- cognition banquet honoring Dr. McCracken and Dr. Goddard, who are retiring from the science faculty. The banquet was held on May 25 in the ballroom at Walwood Hall, with Grant Bennett as general chairman and Fred Niles in charge of the program.

Its membership includes the depart- mental faculty and a large percentage of the department en- rollment. The Union promotes a friendly relationship among the stu- dents of the department and with other campus organizations. It strives to bring about a more perfect correlation of industry and education; it aims at the development of character, per- sonality, and possibilities of its members; it fosters high scho- lastic standards through the Craftsman ' s Scholarship Award given annually to ' the-outstanding senior of the department. The bi-weekly meetings of the Union are characterized by the educational talks of faculty members- and professional men. Local industrial trips are taken at various irttervals throughout the year and visits to nearby school shops serve the professional interests of the members. The social calendar, including stag parties, ' picnics, and pledge dinners, is topped by the annual Dinner Dance. This year it was held in the ballroom of Walwood Hall and was attended by sixty couples, including alumni and active mem- bers. After the dinner Preston Bilz, president, welcomed the alumni and guests in behalf of the Union. Harold Klaiss, presi- dent last year, responded and introduced members of the alumni. Mr. Arthur Reagh of Grand Rapids was introduced as toastmaster who in turn called upon Dr. Lofton V. Burge as speaker of the evening. His inspiring address emphasized the success of modern American education. Mr. Marion Sher- wood, chairman of the Industrial Arts Department, was then called upon to present the Craftman ' s Scholarship Plaque. After introducing former winners who were in attendance, Mr. Sher- wood stated that this year, as in one previous year, there were two men whose ratings were so close as to warrant a duplica- tion. He then named Elmer Brune and Preston Bilz as recipients of the dual award. After the presentation the party enjoyed the remainder of the evening in dancing. The Industrial Arts Union is proud of its growth this year, as well as the increase of interest in the work of the department. The members always stand ready to receive worthy students into membership and to promote the work of industry in edu- cation.

Page One Hundred Sixty-four HOME EC CLUB HAS MANY OUTSTANDING SPEAKERS • The Home Economics Club has sponsored some exception- ally interesting meetings this year. Helen Sheffield, president, guided us through our activities in a very capable manner. Many good times were due to our increased membership, the club being larger this year than it has ever been before. Our formal initiation ceremony was performed at one of our first meetings. Some of our programs, arranged by Alverdeen Flick, included many interesting speakers. Mrs. Maude Mc- Connell, of the Kalamazoo Department of Education, was one of the first speakers; she was followed by Miss Jane Blackburn, who gave a travelogue on her trip to Yucatan; Miss Dezena Loutzenhiser spoke on Education for Girls at Oxford Univer- sity ; and Miss Defjardinet gave a talk on Home Economics Education In China. Early in the fall, we enjoyed a picnic at Wolfe Lake, which was planned by Betty Bush. Verl Mason took charge at Thanksgiving time, when the club prepared a basket for a needy family. The fall term closed with our annual Christmas party given by Miss Moore ' s foods class, after which gifts were taken to the Children ' s Home. Doris Pettyjohn, .Beth Porter, Jane Lemon, and Rosanna Streeter arranged a ' ' so ' dl party when the club played progressive games. Later, we enjoyed a trip to Grand Rapids to go through the Mueller Furniture Company. Our annual formal dance was held on April 8 in the ball- room of Walwood Hall, and was appropriately called The Mixing Bowl. Bette Smith was general chairman, Carolyn Chase was in charge of programs; Barbara Bachelder, tickets; Alberdeen Frick, decorations; Mae Fredenburg, refreshments; and Eileen Smith in charge of publicity. Many alumni were back for this party. The club sponsored an open meeting late in April, when they secured Mrs. Beth Bailey McLean, a nationally known home economist, as the speaker for the evening. Preceding the forum, a dinner was held in the Van Gogh room, and an in- formal reception was held in the Women ' s League room after the speech. As a grand finale for the year, there was the annual picnic when the officers for the coming year were elected.

The purpose of the club is to further the professional matters with which later elementary teachers have to deal. The membership of the club is divided into six groups, each with its leader. The group leaders for this year were Lenora Brennen, Muriel Hengst, Annabelle McWilliams, Maxine Mich- mershuizen, Roseanna Nemrava, and Aldona Yukor. The lead- ers with the officers make up the cabinet which is intrumental in carrying out the activities of the club. The meetings of the Later El Club, which is one of the largest of Western ' s clubs, are held the third Thursday of every month in the Rotunda of the Training School. Many outstanding activities were participated in and they certainly made the year a worthwhile one. The Later Elementary Coffee held in the Rotunda during the Homecoming festivities helped to ac- quaint the new members with the old members and alums. The Christmas Buffet Supper and the February Banquet went over with a bang and the large attendance went home happy and contented. The club visited the Glencoe schools near Chicago and the girls report the trip to be very educational and entertaining. The tour through the schools familiarized the girls with the best methods of Later Elementary education. A headline event was the lecture by Dr. Kilpatrick, noted educator. Beegie interviews a Training School tot about fourth grade music. Page One Hundred Sixty-six Top Picture Left: Standing— Esther Wilson, Arloa King, Pauline Good.

Page One Hundred Sixty-eight INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS CLUB STUDIES WORLD PROBLEMS • During this period of unrest throughout the world, the com- plete understanding of international problems is essential; therefore, the International Relations Club is doing much to aid in this understanding. This year celebrates its tenth year as an organized club. The International Relations Club is but one of the many similar organizations throughout the world that is affiliated with the Carnegie Foundation for International Peace. Each year, two consignments of books and pamphlets are received from the Carnegie Foundation, which are placed with the other club literature in the library. The Inter-Collegiate Council includes the Western State International Relations Club in its triumvirate of Kalamazoo College, Nazareth and Western, which was formed a year ago. Annually, these three colleges bri ng a nationally known speak- er to address them at their joint banquet. This spring. Dr. William Moerdyk, who has charge of a medical mission near Bagdad, in Iraq, was the guest. Alice Oman, Cassie Riehl, Nathan Talbott and Tony Malin- owski were the delegates sent to the Midwest Conference of International Relations Clubs which was held at Northwestern University. Delegates were also sent to the state-wide Model League of Nations. The annual radio program for the year was given May 23 with Winifred Gardner, Pauline Hay, and Na- than Talbott as participants. The club owes much of its advancement to its sponsors, Dr. Scott and Dr. Seibert, whose advice and encouragement greatly assisted the members in accomplishing their under- standing of international problems.

A. is an organization through which women students on campus are offered opportunities for the develop- ment and expression of their reUgious interests. Their desire to render service to new students was made more possible through the admittance of 33 new members, who were inform- ally initiated at a weiner roast, and formally admitted to the club at a candle light service. A membership tea was held in October, and on November 12, a World Acquaintance Tour to Detroit was made by twenty- four girls. During the final week of Lent, April 3-7 a Quiet Hour was held in Walwood Hall and all students were welcome. A joint Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. State Christian Student Conference was held at Western April 28-29. The annual dinner and election of officers was held April 11, and the year was closed by a Y. W. C. A.

ROMAN BANQUET ENDS CLASSICAL CLUB YEAR • The Classical Club, second oldest organization on Western ' s campus, was started in 1911. Active members are students in the Latin department, although other students specializing in art, English, or history are cordially welcomed as associate members. The purpose of the club is to further appreciation of Latin language, culture, and life. An address by one who recently traveled in Italy, was the feature of the January meeting and one of the most interesting of a series of miscellaneous entertainments. During the fall term many new members were initiated in a ceremony repre- senting the Roman youth assuming the toga of manhood. There was the annual Homecoming Tea with Miss Eunice Kraft as hostess, and the Christmas meeting observing the Saturnalian Festival in true Roman fashion. In February, the group was entertained by a unique questionary program, and during March a dinner party was held at the cafeteria. New officers were elected at the April meeting. May proved the occasion for a delightful outdoor weenie roast. To complete a busy year, the club held its traditional Roman banquet in June.

GERMAN CLUB ENDS YEAR WITH ANNUAL OUTING • Der Deutsche Verein is an active student organization open to all who are interested in German and who have had at least one year of college German or its equivalent. The pur- poses of the club are to increase knowledge of German litera- ture, life, and customs; to develop skill in conversational Ger- man; and to add to the appreciation and enjoyment of all things German. These purposes come to light at the monthly meet- ings, in the form of plays, lectures, pictures, and games. Unusual interest has been shown by the members in all of the activities of the club this year. Three meetings in particular will be remembered with pleasure by all members. The first was the annual Open House held in the fall term for all German students. March fifteenth proved a memorable date when a typically German Abendessen was served in the Van Gogh room and followed by a merry evening of music, singing, and games. Last but not least was the picnic at Marbach, Miss Zimmerman ' s shack which could be expressed no better than to say. Die Landpartie in Marbach war Das schonste Fest im ganzen Jahr.

A group of thirty made the jaunt by bus and en- joyed their tours through Wilson and Swift Packing Companies, and the exhibits. At the meetings interesting lectures and pictures were head- lined. A talk about conservation and one about the production of milk stood out as the best programs. One of the outstanding social events was the banquet held during the spring term. The Ag Club played host to the teachers and agriculture stu- dents from the training schools at Richland, Portage, and Paw Paw. The Agriculture Club, organized in November, 1931, is for the benefit of students interested in any phase of agriculture and is a growing institution. A profitable future is predicted.

W CLUB SENDS BRONCO TO HIGH SCHOOLS • The W Club is an organization composed of men inter- ested in athletics who have won an official letter in one of the major sports. Its chief purpose is to bring about a more under- standing relationship between the members themselves and others interested in athletics. Entrance into other extra-curricular activities has always been encouraged among the members of the organization, and their success is well evident along this line. The club also rates high in scholarship and can boast in its membership many of the prominent men on campus. Graduating members of the W club are awarded a life- time pass to all Western athletic contests in recognition of their service to the school. A semi-annual publication The Bronco enables the club to keep in touch with the alumni. Formerly the Hilltopper, the booklet is this year being sent to outstanding athletes of all Southwestern Michigan high schools in a hope of creating more interest in athletics at Western. Various social events are enjoyed by the club during the year, the outstanding one this year being the annual Spring Recognition Dinner held June 1 to which members and their guests were invited.

PSYCHOLOGY STUDENTS ORGANIZE FORUM NATHAN TALBOTT President HARRIS HILL Vice-president CATHERINE GITTENS Secretary CORINNE VAN OOSTEN Treasurer • The Psychology Forum of Western State Teachers College is appearing for the first time in the pages of a Brown and Gold. It was organized during the Fall Term of 1938 and re- ceived its charter in January, 1939. The purpose of the organ- ization is to bring together those having a common interest in general psychology, and through the medium of reports and informal discussions, to familiarize theories, and concepts in this field. At the first formal meeting the club elected the following officers: Nathan Talbott, president: Harris Hill, vice-president; Catherine Gittens, secretary; Corinne Van Oosten, treasurer; Margaret Bartfay, corresponding secretary; and Mary Brainard, journalist. The club also unanimously selected Mr. Homer L. J. Carter and Dr. Theodore S. Henry as its faculty advisers. The club meetings, unique on Western ' s campus, are held as informal breakfasts, after which a planned program is pre- sented to the members. On February 21st the club witnessed movies on The Types and Growth of Learning. Outstanding speakers have included Dr. J. McCarthy of the Kalamazoo State Hospital and Mr. Raymond Fox of the Prosecuting At- torney ' s office. It is sincerely believed that the Psychology Forum will maintain the high standards which characterize the student organizations of Western State.

Page One Hundred Eighty ACADEMY HAS NEW ACTIVITY, A BON VOYAGE PARTY • Hello, I ' d like to tell you about the Academy activities of 1938-39. Our membership this year numbered thirty-four, chosen for their leadership, scholarship, and personality. The Homecom- ing week-end was highlighted by the Alumni Luncheon, held in the new Walwood Hall building and started us on another year. The pledge parties, as usual, were fun. And they certainly were of a wide variety. We entertained the prospective Academites at a roast at Milham, a progressive dinner, a Monte Carlo party at Wini Gonyard ' s ,a tea at Babs Stewart ' s, a delicious chop suey dinner served by Miss Eccles and Miss Steckelberg, and at other social affairs. Speaking of pledges, we initiated four in the fall: Celestia Westfall, Mabel Rawlinson, Florence Smith, and Grace Simp- son. And then in the winter we all gathered in the Davis Room for the candle-light initiation and Beth Burdick, Thelma Burns, Arlene Campbell, Helen Hewitt, Kathryn Keck, Betty fane Lorr, Dorothy McGinnis, Elizabeth Murray, Ina Springer, Ruth Wat- son, Leila Wilson, and Virginia Zuber became members. Our Bon Voyage party for Miss Eccles, who left in March for Europe, was indeed nice. The Inter-Sorority Formal, March 11, offered us a chanace to sport our new formals. The spring formal, with chairman Barbara Smith greeting us at the en- trance, offered another chance for us to swing and waltz. The top social affair was the house party at Gull Lake; ' twas fun to swim, canoe, dance, romp, and forget about school for several days. Academy has always been proud of its ability to debate, and although we didn ' t win the intramural cup again, Mary Berkey and Dorothy Schlobohm went through to the finals. We wish to express our appreciation to Miss Dorothy Eccles and Miss Mathilde Steckelberg for their kindly advice and guidance during the year. YVONNE PARKER President WINIFRED GANYARD Vice-President GRACE SIMPSON Secretary DOROTHY SCHLOBOHM Treasurer Around the Academy party-table are: Janet Schlobohm, Miss D. Ec- cles, Miss M. Steckleberg, Yvonne Parker. Maurine Kooi, Jane Shaw, M. E- Dougherty, Florence Smith, Mabel Rawlinson, Celestial West- fall, and Grace Stimpson. Page One Hundred Eighty-one PI KAPPA RHO EXPERIENCES THREE-STAR YEAR JOYCE VAN ORMAN President ARLENE RECTOR Secretary BETTY TOWNSEND Treasurer • Curtain, already? Well, it was a grand production. The 38-39 events in Pi Kappa Rho would do David Zarouk proud. Even he would have difficulty in combining comedy, gayety and plain constructive action to produce such a perfectly co- ordinated whole. More fun! Most of the time characters lost the limelight in favor of incident and plot, but once or twice a few members singled themselves out and stole the show. While early in the first act, the debaters insured the success of the production when they won the intramural debate championship and brought home the cup. The usual Comedy scene of rushing pledges was carried through with flying colors — literally if you ' re thinking of the fall term when the members turned into swashbuckling pirates for one evening and then bedecked themselves in hair ribbons and other costuming effects for the School-Daze party in the winter term. The girls attained age and dignity, however, before the Civic Theatre party which followed after-dinner coffee at Elnora Strahan ' s apartment. Eighteen new girls were added to the cast at this point with riotous comedy at the informal initiation held at Arlene Rector ' s home and an impressive formal initia- tion ceremony and banquet at Walwood Hall. Here the Drama became a musical production with the acquisition of a new Pi Kappa Rho song written by Laurette Valentine with lyrics by Cherryblossom Heim. Many other activities of the cast — swimming and skating parties, weiner roasts, tea at Miss Lindblom ' s, colored the performance. Acts in which the Pi Kapps collaborated with the other soror- ities were fun too — the Inter-Sorority Chocolate, Formal, and Pan-Hellenic booklet. Featured in the spring term sequence were the annual formal and then the grand climax, the house-party. Also in Act III, a lovely touch was added when the wedding bells rang out for Doris Koestner. Alumnae figured in the year ' s plot, chiefly in the alumnae breakfast, homecoming luncheon, and annual formal. Now, as the curtain falls, orchids to the co-directors — Miss Anna Lindblom and Miss Marion Tamin — on the smash hit of the season. Ptisc One Hundred Eighty-two A group of Pi Kappa Rho girls looking at their scrap books are (top row) Laurette Valentine and Ruth Ward, and (bottom row) Aleta Doane, Esther Worden, Rosemonde Green, Leonore Stevenson, Elnora Strahan, and Betty Joan Wilson. In an informal gathering in the Woman ' s League room ■we find Bet- ty Hartman Townsend, Helen John- son, Ruth Ohst, Marian Shearer, Cassia Riehl, Cherry Blossom Heim, Miss Anna Lindblohm, and Plyna Gilchrist. Centered around Miss Tamin the top row of girls include Helen Schubert, Laura Shedd, Frances Winters, and Arlene Rector, while seated below them are Marjorie Baumgartner, Miss M. Tamin, and Helen Inger- soll, and lastly Betty Heathcote Conner. This smiling group of Pi Kap girls are Joyce Kabbe, Harriet Noble, Joyce Van Orman, Marion Cook, Josephine Brack, and Virginia Gil- more. Page One Hundred Eighty-three Senate goes formal!

Page One Hundred Eighty-four SENATE COMPLETES ANOTHER ACTIVE YEAR • Senate, the oldest sorority on campus, has in its many years endeavored to develop leadership, loyalty, and friendship among its forty members who are chosen for their personality, scholarship, and faculty recommendations. As usual, the club ' s calender was a busy one and its interests were many. Homecoming this year will be remembered for two reasons, the prize-winning float and the luncheon for the alumni which was held in the West Club room of the Union Building. Then came the traditional Inter-sorority Chocolate where we became better acquainted with the new girls on campus. In keeping with our program on the arts we attended a Community Concert. At another meeting we enjoyed a group of book reviews, and still later, we were the guests of our alums at a delightful tea. MARY BACHELDER President EDNA BAUMGARDEN Vice President BERNITA HALE Secretary MARY STRAW Treasurer Eight girls were pledged to membership after the fall and winter term rush periods. They were: Jane Oren, Esther Morse, Florence Cook, Dorothy Waldo, Phyllis Miller, Janet Tindall, Carolyn Chase, and Alice Drake. May was a month to be remembered with our usual ritzy dinner-dance and that always-looked-forward-to house party. And so once again we bring to a close a successful year, determined to renew our efforts to become better individuals by becoming better Senators. The Senate officers are discussing plans for their formal. Seated in the Union Building lounge are Belle Teutsch, Bernita Hale, Mary Bachelder, Edna Baumgar- den, Mary Straw, and Mary Allan, while Eileen Putney is sitting on a cushion. Page One Hundred Eighty-five Thelma BouUard, Betty Olin, and Ardath Watson compose the Jrio that stands in back of Bernice Utter, Barbara Linihan. Betty Bush, Helen Sheffield, and Marigail Stew- art. Grouped in the Union Building Lounge are, top row — Mary Hume, Margarite Smith, Ruth Bonfoey, and Margaret Lavine. In the middle row we find Doris Pettyjohn, Made- line Medema, Helen Franz, Miss Alice Smith, and Pauline Medema, while seated below them are Jean Evans and Vera Lawrence. Doris Van Wert, Marian Shinn, and lane Lemmon are comfortably seated on a cushion in the Woman ' s League Room, and standing in the back are Elvira Cradit and Marcia Main. Below them Jane Chojnow- ski, Mary Nowlin, Kathryn Cagney and Betty Romance seem interested in a letter read to them by their president. In a more formal pose Elvira Cra- dit, Betty Romence. Bernice Utter, Beverly Healy, Corinne Van Oosten, and Lenora Newlander form the top row, and at the bottom are Marian Shinn, Lucille Carley, Mar- cia Main, Gretchen Vander Meer, Helen King, and Virginia Buettner. Page One Hundred Eighty-six THETA PI ALPHA CONCLUDES NINTH BUSY YEAR • June 1939 brings to a close the ninth busy and successful year of Theta Pi Alpha. Book-reviewing was Theta Pi ' s primary interest, but the organization has emphasized the promotion of good fellowship, the opportunity for individual expression, and leadership in school activities in its later years. The society membership is limited to forty girls v ho must possess capa- bilities for leadership, scholarship, and friendship. Thelma Boulard and her committee planned the autumnal Homecoming Breakfast which was held at the Columbia Hotel and enjoyed by ever so many alumnae and actives. Preparing a float for the parade kept Doris Kilgore and the girls theme conscious for weeks, and then rush parties demanded enthusi- asm. Jane Chojnowski treated us to a night at Monte Carlo, and Roberta Haas took us on a trip to England from her lovely home. During the winter term, we added to our finances by selling pencils, sandwiches, and stationery and by holding rummage sales. Helen Franz planned the rush parties, and did everyone enjoy getting the oyster for the scavenger hunt! Dr. Ernest Burnham made our Valentine party a memorable one by giving us some of his special thoughts on getting the most from life. Thelma Boulard and Betty Olin were on the general committee for the Inter-Sorority Formal. We were first-nighters at Of Thee 1 Sing but we didn ' t get home until morning! The Van Gogh room was the scene of the formal initiation for both terms; Marigail Stewart was general chairman. We were especially proud of the new pledge pins for the ceremony. The annual spring formal was a gala occasion, and no one stayed at home. Thelma Boulard and Marigail Stewart were co-chairmen for the dance. Senior program night afforded the others lots of laughs; maybe the prophecies were a trifle rash! Doris Van Wert and her staff gave us an exceptional Annual — just chuck full of news and scandaK?). Betty Bush, Helen Sheffield, and Betty Olin, planned our houseparty. After all the eats, we ' ll forgive their getting lost in Lovers ' Lane! The members of Theta Pa Alpha wish to express their sin- cere appreciation to Miss Alice Smith and Miss Edna Hirsch for their cooperation and sincere interest in the sorority.

Bridge is a game played at al- most all the meetings. Al Jones, Dick Kent, John Birkhold, and Bob Feather are the players, while Dick Anderson, Walter Gillett, Russ Eg- gleston, and Robert Smith look on and kibitz. Page One Huudred Ninet ' ONWARD GO, PHI SIGMA RHO • Phi Sigma Rho is the oldest organization of its kind on campus. Originally started as the Hickey Debating Club, and later called the Forum, its purpose has changed from that of a debating group to a social brotherhood to which outstanding fellows are elected each year. With a goal of ever better fellowship, scholarship, and reverence, members of the fraternity have consistently been leaders in all major activities of the school. Today the group operates its own house at 615 Locust St. which has been furnished with all new furnishings by the mem- bers and alumni. A fraternity table has also been run by the house at which many of the members eat. The house has also served as a social center for the year ' s social activities. The Stag Dinner, the Interfraternity Party, and the Spring Dinner- Dance were the larger social occasions, with many smaller events such as wiener-roasts, chocolates, roller-skating parties, and bull sessions dotting the calendar. Eight new members were initiated into the organization this spring, and did not have their pictures taken with the rest of the group. They are: Arland Doolittle, Morris Carpenter, Ar- nold Balzell, Philip Schmitt, Roy Rowan, John Vander Meiden, Gene Hamilton, and Edward Cleveland.

Page One Hundred Ninety-one ' 39 THETA CHI DELTA TALKS TO ' 29 MEMBERS • Hello, Theta Chi Delta, ' 29— KENNETH THOMPSON President STANLEY WOODS Vice President RICHARD LENON Secretary TONY MALINOWSKI Treasurer Our fraternity has in this past year hit a new high in its accomplishments since its organization in 1929, as the Tribunal. The previous new high occurred back in 1929 when you and eighteen others struggled successfully against odds, to give us the first charter as a Greek letter fraternity and to establish our first house. At that time, too, you gave to us the concepts and ideals of fellowship and high living that we cherish so dearly today. Since your time we have progressed to our present location on 617 W. South Street. You ask about our house-mother. Ma Nusbaum, whom you remember and loved so well, re- tired last year. Since then Mrs. Grace Place has taken over the duties of that important fraternity office. We feel justly proud of our accomplishmients this past year. We feel proud that, as in past years, we were able to furnish and operate our own house; that we were able to maintain our own meal table. The twenty-three residents will long re- member the value of fraternity house life. We feel proud that in our membership of fifty-five, we have capable representa- tives in every phase and department of college activity. Although technically we exist as a social organization, our scholarship maintains a stable level, paced by the Rackham Scholarship Award winner Dominic Dziewiatkowski. We feel proud of our financial condition, being this year debt-free and self-sustaining. We like to brag a bit, too, of our spirit, enthusiasm, and fraternalism that is so apparent when- ever and wherever Theta Chi ' s meet. It is regretful that space does not permit us to recount to you here our many other experiences and activities. However, the second annual Theta Chi Delta handbook will soon reach you and all other alumni and members. We all join in dedi- cating these pages to you and the future, greater, Theta Chi Delta. Fraternally, Theta Chi Delta, ' 39 The Theta Chi house on South Street.
