College students still danced, studied occasion- ally, crammed for examinations. The (iazette daily brought forth headlines announcing the spread of death and destruction. Blackouts on the west coast, sulimarines on the east coast, death in the south seas and the nortliei n Atlantic, all, all were far removed. The mid-west was imi)erturl)al)le, unattacked. But one by one the imperturbal)le, the unattacked places were attacked, and their names loom large in the history of slothfullness. Pearl Harbor, Singapore, Java, Darwin, Burma, India. And ])lanes were thought to be seen over New Ydik, San Francisco, Los Angeles. Our cities were blacked out.

The part of the women was equally uncertain. Some felt that it was theii- duty to join some of the women ' s service groujjs, to try to help their friends by helping other soldiers or sailors. They asked, • ' What coui ' ses ouglit we to take in order that we. too, ma. ' contrihute to the war (d ' foi ' t. ' They wanted to know just what tlieir i)art was to he in the war. Xowhei-e did they find a clear, concise answer. The American college also lay behind the eight ball. In a total war, every unit within a state must contribute toward the wimiing of the war. Was the college therefore to revamp its entire education- al system, to concentrate all its efforts upon turning out adequate mechanics and i)reparing officers for the armed services. ' Was it to abandon its pain- fully-acfiuired liberal arts curriculum, and concentrate upon the technical side alone. ' And Avas it to speed up its pro- cess of education, so that its male stii- dents might finish before going into the army, and its women become trained for such j()l)s as they might have to take ovei-; ' It was a perijlexing, unceitain problem. 15ut back of it all, there was one deep, abiding faith. Amei ' ica, which had given all of them so much, would not, could not fail because they were willing to give too little. Amidst all the uncertainties of the year that spirit stood out crystal clear. The people asked, Miat can we do to hel]i. ' ' . nd there Avas no uncertainty in their willingness to do whatever was most desirable.

It is tlicu tliat youtli dances, that it engages in those social activities which are to determine so innch the course of its rutui-e life. Kiiiiwledge of societv is at least as iinpniiaiit as knowledge of Ixioks. Tliei-el ' dre, Western students enjoy a wide ()|ip(iitunity for social develojunent. There ai ' e 41 different social organiza- tions upon the canii us, ranging from the departmental cluhs to the fraternities and soi-orities. There is a meeting of many minds. In these club.s, the basic i rinciiili- of democracy, majority rule, prevails. There is discussion, there is a divergence of opinions, there is a reconciliation toward a way of action. The principle of accommodation has been applied. Social learning has occurred. Social Activities MAX is a social animal. It is til rough and witli the coo])eration of his fellows that he is able to Ix ' st develoj) liimsell ' , that he can most enjoy liiniself. Life is a ])i ' ocess of leai ' uing how best to get along with fellow men, how to make Die ])atiiway of life smoolhiT. ' fhere is no time like diith for that.

Mechanical Trades Building A S iinicli a coiitrihutioii to the War flTort as it is to the college, the Mechanical Trades Building hous- es the defense classes during the present war. At present the classes are being held on a twenty-four hour schedule in effort to train workers for jobs in le- fense industries. Xewest among the organized classes on Campus the Mechanical Tradi ' s build- ing has offered excellent training to many men in vitally needed skills. The two-year course in Aviation Mechanics will cotitinue (o ))(• a diawing card to the many young men who are expecting to enter into the aircraft lield. The structure was designed by the Stewart-Kingscott Company of Kalama- zoo and constructed by the DeRight Brothers ' Construction Company. The Iniilding was made possible l)y the generous gift of the W. E. Upjohn Un- employment Trustee Corporation, whose gift of $r)7.(H)() built the building.

It is valuable in that it aids in the socialization and education of those eni ' olled in the rural department and oth- ei-s interested in the rural tield. It blooms at two Aveek intervals, its blos- soms alternating between social and bus- iness meetings. Features of the blos- soms are nmsic, educational movies, panel discussions, demonstrations in rural dramatic art, play production, s]ieeches and folk games. In November, soon after planting the s])eciiuen in the earth of Western Mich- igan college, it is best that the yoimg shoots l3e exposed to a homecoming meet- ing Avith other foi ' uier membei ' s. At Christmas time, it should be activated by a pi-eseiitation by the dramatic group of a Christmas ])lay, and the presents which the members In-ing. should be turned over to a chai-itable institution. In .Januarx ' , se -ei ' al of the branches Of the ])lay, coopei-ating with tlie rural life seminar class, s])oiisoi ' ed a Rural Youth Leadership eiicain])ment of Alle- gan country youth at the AV. K. Kellogg camp at Clear Lake, in P ebruary. the meiiiliers contri))ute(l articles to be as- sembled for V. S. O. travel kits. The biggest iiisj)iration that tlie year jiresented was tlie annual Country Life club banquet held in AValwood hall in larch. Various phases of the theme, An Ecumenial Basis for Peace, were l)resented l)y the members of the club, followed liy a summary by Dr. Fniest Burnham, formerly director nl ' tlie niial de])artiiieiit at Western. The club has also taken an active part in the state and national organizations with which it is affiliated. In October, nine members were delegates at the Na- tional Youth conference held in Nash- A-ille, Tenn. In February, Doris Gilles- pie represented the club on a youth panel dui-ing the Farmers ' Week pro- gram at Michigan State college. Eight club members attended the s])ring meet- ing of the Michigan Coxmtry Life Asso- ciation held in East Lansing in March. Emerson Ohl was elected president of the Youth section of the state associa- tion and Phyllis Pauls was chosen assist- ant secretary. For the eleventh consecutive year, the club liel]ied s])onsor the Rural Alumni News Letter. ( ' liil) members also took an active ])art in the spring formal s])on- sored by the rui ' al de]iartment.

Carpenter L THE ORATOR IN ACTION ADIES and gentlemen, honorable judgt ' s and Morthy opponents, we of tlu ' atlirniative wish to pi ' cscnt a record of what tlic Western lieliigaii college ' s men ' s il( ' l)ate sqnad lias done during the past year. The question for the year, ' Resolved : That the federal government should reg- ulate by laM ' all laljor unions in the TTiut- ed States — constitutionally conceded, ' was chosen because the year 1941 was one of strikes and strained associations involving labor, capital and government. It Avas because of this that it Avas parti- cularly api-opos as a discussion topic for the debating groui)s. At the beginning of the yeai-, moic than 20 men reported to Coach Giffor l Blyton. Western ' s neAV director of men ' s forensics. The squad was soon cut to 18 and then as the Avar made inroads into our nuuqtower, only 11 of us remained to com])lete the season. We all, and es- pecially the 11 Avlio remained until tlie end of the season, made a signiiicaiit contribution to the forensic program at Western, for we established a ncAV recoi-d in the number and the quality of tlie events in Avhicli we took ])ait. During the year, Ave participated in lo2 formal, inter-collegiate debates and in 26 discussions, with the total individ- ual participation exceeding 300. Al- though the debates Avere mostly of the traditional type, tAVo-thirds of them were of the non-decision A ' ariety. Tlie discus- sions, like tlie debates, centered on tlie question of labor and goA ' crnnieiit. Manx of tlie events Avere lield befiire clllbs. granges and (•(iiiiparable orgaiii .alidiis. Tliidiiglioiil tlie year, a strong elfort Avas made to hold the debates and discussions before audiences. It Avas for this reason that tournament debating was eiit to a minimum. The biggest feature of tlie season, of course, Avas the dual-school debates, since Western Avas rei resented in only four tournanu nts : The direct-clash practice at Toledo; the freshman tour- nament at AVestern: the Michigan state men ' s inA ' itational tournament at Kala- mazoo college; and the Delta Sigma Rho tournament at Madison, AVisconsin. Ex- cept for the tournament at Western. Avhich Avas exelnsiA ' ely foi- freshmen, teams Avere chosen from the entire squad to engage in the other tournaments and in the many dual-school debates. In the decision debates. Western Avas . lO ])er cent successful. Among the colleges and universities met by our team are .Muskegon Junior, Calvin, Aliiion, Adrian, Grand Rapids Junior, UniA-ei-sity of Detroit, UniA ' er- sity of Dayton, Capital uniA-ersity, To- ledo, Kalamazoo, TTojie, Alma, AVestern Reserve, Alar(|iiette, DePauw, Notre Dame, Wisconsin. Ripon, Otterbein, Arichigan State Normal. Central Alichi- gan, Alt. Alai ' y and AVhitewater. The first major event of tlie season Avas the Tan Kajijia Al])ha congress held at Pui ' dne univei-sity in mid-October. Six men took an actiA-e part in the assemlily whicli Avas designed to giA ' e experience in writing bills and in passing legisla- tion.

' Well, .Johnny, at tlie club I lu ' longcd to at Western Michigan college in 1942, we Just did a lot of things. At Home- cnniing, Ave held a breakfast for the ahuiinac and the early el faculty mem- bers. Our formal dance, later on, was the first formal of the year. Besides that, we liad a Chiistmas party at wliich ] Ir. Herbert Slusser spoke. Christmas gifts were given to children in some of the Kalamazoo clciin ' iitary schools. Did you take any t ri])S or anything? li ' , yes, about . ' !. ) of the juiiioi ' and senior girls, accoin])ani( ' d l)y Miss Jane J lackl)urii, ])aid a A-isit to Forestville school in Chicago. Besides that, we had a spring picnic that you would have likc(l, .Tolinny. What else did you do? Well, We lield a Mother ' s day flower sale, and a Washington candy sale, with the money we made going to buy defense bonds. Then at our spring banquet, we installed our new officers.

The president was Eleanor Bacon ; vice- president was Virginia Bell; secretary was Alice Lou I ' eterson; treasurer was Kathryn Moats and the advisers were Miss Blackburn and Mrs. Effie Phillips. But the whole club was divided up into 12 groups, which are headed by junior and senior girls. In this way, the mem- bers become better acquainted Avith each other.

' ' But what is a situation, and wliat is tlic puiposc. Let us cxaniinc several con- ci-ete exaiiii)les in (iider to liiid out just what this sayiiin- of .lolm Dewey ' s really meaiis. At Western Micliiuan collegx ' , tliere is an organization known as the Later Ele- mentary clul), which is composed of all students enrolled in the later elementary curriculum, and has as its aim the pro- motion of interest in problems confront- ing- the later elementary teacher, as Avell as tile (h ' velo])ment of sociability and leadership witliin the ortianization. First of all, in order to brinK al)out sociability and interest in the problems of the later elementary tield, the group sponsored a if omecomin, - coffee at which alunnii, faculty and the members of the clul) could become better acquainted. I ' rom this meeting, at which many teach- ing ])rol)lenis were discussed, there de- veloped a wider interest in the schools. This was therefore a situation developed with a purpose, and may be described as the suljject matter of tlie organization. Later on. following both the above mentioned aims, tlie grou]i held a Christ- mas ])arty and I ' an American ban- (|uet, at wliich -Miss Hel)ecca Jiarnhart spoke. .luniors and seniors later made a tour of the Kalamazoo schools and were entertained at a tea and at a teach- er ' s meeting in the evening. Subject matter again. In the Spring, again following the two general aims, the group made an obser- vation trip to the Battle Creek schools, atteiuled tea for the later elementary teachers of the Kalamazoo schools, a fun night for the Early Elementary club, and the annual installation of offi- cers and the June jDicnic. As a lesson in object teaching, the group also pur- chased a one hundred dollar United States liond, which will inci-ease the Lat- er Elementary scliolarsliip fund. Here we have the introduction of a new form of subject matter, that is, the creation of a wisli to further the defense effort, and tlie effecuation of that -w-ish by a leai ' ning situation. Since the school is life, and in life, there are leaders for various organiza- tions, the cabinet of the club was chosen by ])o])ular vote. Group leaders includ- ed Doris Bangerter, Patty Campbell, Dorothy Doolittle, Mildred Gold, Pauline Good, Berneeta Pedlow. Esther Tueling and .Tac(|ueline AVilson.

Under the diree- tion of Robert Daniel, as Editor, and Alfred Foster, as Business lanager, tliis issue is now placed into your hands for your ])leasure and for your interest. It is difficult to decide on what pattern to follow in producing the yearl)ook. Each person has that which he likes to find. TJiei-e are things contained herein tiiat will always make you remember tjie ]iast years in your college life. Natural- ly, likewise there are things that are missing, people that you have liked and places where you have been that are lost forevel ' .

Like any ])ublication this con- tains l)oth good and bad features Ixtth in a liietorical sense and from an im- pressionistic appreciation. The staff have endeavored to make you read its works.
