The history of Western Michigan University is one of continual growth from the time of its birth by legislative enactment on May 27, 1903 until the present day. The functioning institution of Western Michigan Normal School did not start until June 2 7, 1904. At that time the school opened for a six week session with an enrollment of 117 students. To guide these students Dwight B. Waldo, former principal of Northern States Normal, had the assistance of eleven faculty members. There were not any new buildings and so the classes were held in the city high school, the Methodist Church, the Y.M.C.A. and the old Kalamazoo College building between Lovell and South Streets. This latter building hous- ed most of the classes and the administration which consisted of President Waldo and his secretary. The first full session began on September 26, 1904, with an enrollment of 107 students and seven new faculty members. President Waldo saw that the chief function of the school was to prepare people for rural education and selected to head that de- partment, Dr. Ernest Burnham, a valuable man until he left the faculty in 1940. The idea of a rural education department was unique among normal schools at that time. mMi L The start of Western Michigan University — shown from Prospect Hill, 1901. tion building and the library, a symbol of old Nor- mal School days. In 1927 legislative enactment made Western State Normal Western State Teachers College. The building and acquistion of further land stopped for a while, but the curriculum continued to grow. In 1936, Dr. Paul V. Sangren was appointed president upon the retirement of Dr. Waldo. Under Dr. San- gren the building again started. In December, 1936, the construction of Haymes field and Waldo sta- dium was begun and completed in 1939. By 1938 Western had its first dormitories, Walwood (girls) and Vandercook Hall for men. The Union building was also completed then. In 1940 Lavina Spindler Hall for women was finished as was the Student Health and Personnel building. This was also the year that Western State Teachers became Western Michigan College. The administration building on top of Prospect Hill was the first building to be completed and the administrative offices were moved in on Sep- tember 1, 1905. Under constant prodding by Dr. Waldo, the state appropriated more funds and in 1908 the gym and additional classrooms were add- to the main building. These additions were the first under President Waldo ' s administration. By the time he retired, in 1936, the campus had grown from 107 students, twenty acres and no buildings to 1800 students, fifty acres and seven buildings including a training school, science building, library, gymnasium (on Oakland Drive), manual trades building and a central heating plant. There were also some temporary buildings built during WWI that were kept in use until they were torn down in 1953. Since there were no dormitories, students had to live in rooming houses and climb Prospect Hill to attend classes. The Normal Railroad, built in 1908, was used to make this climb easier. This service was discontinued after WW II, but the pow- er plant still stands between the old Administra- The business office about the year 1907. Two more buildings were finished in 1942, the Little Theater and the Mechanical Trades build- ing. The latter was built by a gift from the Upjohn Unemployment Trust. In 1944, Mrs. William Kan- ley donated $50,000, this coupled with $75,000 from the state enabled President Sangren to pur- chase the land from Yandergeissen Road to Oak- land and from Western Michigan Avenue to the that made Western Michigan College Michigan University. Western President ' s home before th Michigan was purchased. e one on railroad tracks. In 1953, 40 acres opposite the new Administration building was purchased and now the campus covered about 300 acres. In 1947 building was started again and since then 19 new buildings have appeared on the campus. The dream of every- one connected with Western came through on Feb- ruary 26, 1957; Governor Williams signed the bill Along with the growth of the campus came the growth of curricula development. When first open- ed, Western had three courses: life certificate course, three year course, and rural school course. The former was granted after one had 2 years in high school and three at Western. The 3 year course was completed after 4 years in high school and a year and summer at Western. The rural certificate was available to those who completed grade school and spent seven semesters at Western. By 1920 it was no longer possible to enter without graduat- ing from high school and in 1924 the first B.S. The first to be completed-Administration building, picture taken in 1925. degrees were offered. Today the University offers degree courses with or without teacher specializ- ation, terminal courses in petroleum distribution and small business management and degree courses in Occupational Therapy, Speech Correction, pulp and paper technology and librarianship. Since 1952, the University has granted Master ' s degrees. From its humble beginnings Western has de- veloped into an institution of 23 administrative offices, 385 full time faculty, 9 rart time instruct- ors, 2 vice presidents and 0,875 students (as of December 1, 1957). It is divided into five schools: Applied Arts and Sciences; Business; Education Liberal Arts and Sciences; and Graduate Studies; ■each school has a dean. It is accredited by the North Central Association of Colleges and Second- ary Schools, the National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education, the Association of American Universities and the National Association of Schools of Music. Western also maintains a farm, has rec- reational facilities for all students, health services for students and will open in the summer of 1958 a library of 115,000 volumes and 1200 periodicals.

President Sangren For more than twenty years, President Paul V. Sangren has led Western Michigan University. Succeeding to the presidency upon the death of President ' s office about the year 192 Dwight K. Waldo in 1936, Dr. Sangren guided the teacher ' s college with such insight that, by Febru- ary, 1957, it had grown to university status. Dr. Sangren attended Ferris Institute, the Uni- versity of Michigan, the University of Indiana and Eastern Michigan College. He was granted a B.A. degree from the latter school and later received his M.A. and Ph.D. from the University of Michigan. Honorary degrees which he has received include a doctor of law from Kalamazoo College and an L.L.D. from Ferris Instkute. At W.M.U. ' s first birthday party. Pres. Sangren cuts the cake. Onlookers are Don Scott, Mrs. Sangren and students. Before coming to Western, Dr. Sangren taught high school science in Clinton, and was superintend- ent of schools in Clio and Zeeland. In 1933 he joined the staff at Western as a psychology instructor. He advanced to positions as head of the education department and dean of ad- ministration, until reaching his present position in 1936. As president of one of Michigan ' s fast-growing universities, Dr. Sangren ' s aim today is to make Western Michigan University the greatest univer- sity we can . . . by advancing the curricula, ex- panding the facilities, introducing new schools and selecting the best qualified personnel possible.

School of Liberal Arts and Sciences The School of Liberal Arts and Sciences is divided into five divisions: Science and Mathematics; Social Science; Language and Literature; Fine Arts and Basic Studies. These divisions offer a large range of studies in which the student may develop his knowledge, and his way of life. It aims to offer him training in thinking objectively, critically and creat- ively. Its offerings serve not only the special stu- dents of the sciences and humanities but also pro- vides a background of basic training for the stu- dents of the other schools of the University and for those in pre-professional courses. The department of Chemistry, in order to meet the ever growing demands of the science world, offers a variety of subjects. 14 Mr. Boynton illustrates a formula in the large lecru re room The different fields of chemistry offer a good selection for a major or minor. Through laboratory and lecture in general chemistry and quantitive and qualitive analysis, the student broadens his knowledge by research and application for further study in a pre-professional career or in the field of general education. Physics is concerned with the whys and wherefores of mechanics, sound, heat, astronomy and nuclear physics. These courses provide the necessary training for students who are specializing in physics and for students in other fields of science and mathematics in which physics is re- quired. This department also offers classes to students who want to know something about the role of science in every- day life. There is always a demand for scientists and specialists in the field of biology. To meet this demand such courses as general biology, biological science, botany, zoology, anatomy, and physiology are offered. Some of these courses are desgned to give students a basic understanding and appreciation of all living things. Dr. Paul Rood supervising a demonstration of the use of a sininle machine The wiggles on an osrillosrone are interpreted bv Dr. M- irhurgor. 15 Dr. Reynolds explains the biological aspects of living organisms. Future scientists, mathematicians, engineers and math teachers prepare by boning up on simple problems. Dr. Bartoo and class enjoy themselves in the greenhouse. 16 The department of Geography and Geology aids students with the understanding of the world, its peoples, and conditions about them. Aside from the many courses offered for study in the class- room, the students have an opportunity to par- ticipate in many laboratory and field courses. Through work in the Political Science depart- ment, students can prepare for careers in govern- ment service; as teachers of civics and government; and for further academic work in law public ad- ministration and other related fields. The program is designed to afford students an opportunity to receive a broad, well rounded understanding of political phenomena as part of the university ' s Liberal Arts curriculum. One of the ways you learn to administer a psych test is to take it yourself. Here Dr. Fatzinger conducts an experiment with a student. Dr. Eugene Kirchner instructs a class in geography. A group [ upperclassmen hears about government from Dr. Jack Piano 17 Courses within the Sociology department are designed to contribute to the general education of the student, stimulating a keener interest in the social aspects of modern life, and developing soc- iological insight into the factors and processes that shape it. Due to the relevance to serious contemp- orary problems and issues such courses as modern marriage, race relations, juvenile delinquency, crim- inology, and population problems receive much at- tention. The department has projected its activity beyond the classroom into a field of research and the center for sociological research provides val- uable information for both students and staff. Dr. Leonard Kerrhner lectures a class in sociology. Dr. York watches intently while two students put on a scene from a play. From the expres- sions of the rest of the class, Boleslavsky was right when he said Acting Is Believing. Will you take the affirmative or the negative? is the question in Dr. Charles Helgesen ' s dehat class. The Speech department recognizes three major responsibilities: to meet cultural and professional needs of the general student body; to meet needs of students preparing to teach in the various areas of the public schools and to prepare students to teach speech. Students will find a well trained and friendly speech staff ready to work closely with them, whether they are in the classroom or partici- pating in an extra class speech activities program. He will find ample opportunity to prepare himself professionally or satisfy his needs for self improve- ment. He may want fun debating or participating in some phase of the theater. He may go out for an oratorical or extemporary speaking contest; or he may represent Western in the Interpretive Read- ing Festival. 18 Mr. Frank Householder conducts a class in literatim . The Speech Correction department, headed by Dr. Van Riper is one of Western ' s widely recognized departments. Its clinic serves three main functions: to serve as training laboratory for students major- ing in speech correction; to give needed speech therapy to Western ' s students having speech or hearing defects; and to provide diagnostic and counseling service to out patients who are referred from all parts of the state. In addition to the specialized courses in English and American literature, the English department offers courses in Journalism.

In con- junction with this the department promotes Calli- ope , the campus literary magazine. The depart- ment also sponsors essay contests and a film series. Topics of the day and literary criticisms are sub- jects for the English major and minor meetings, a monthly informal gathering of students and faculty. Every member of the staff of the Language de- partment has traveled or studied outside the United States. Mention of Rome, Paris or Mexico City in class always invites a brief description or reminis- cence from the instructor. In the light of this in- troduction to the world beyond our horizons, it is not surprising that several students are always polishing up their French, German, or Spanish for residence abroad. The Department of History offers a wide variety of courses ranging from ancient Rome to modern Michigan. It covers the social, political, economic, and cultural aspects of nations throughout the world. As an introduction to History, the Depart- ment offers Foundations of Western Civilization which traces man from pre-historic time to the present day. There are art courses designed for every type of student. The Art department has moulded its cur- riculum so that if a student wishes to become a teacher, professional or commercial artist or just to take a course for his own satisfaction and enjoy- ment, he can fulfill his desire. 20 Mr. John Kemper Lends his assistance willingly in the elementary design rlass. Not all art is done by hand. Two students are caught operating a press in graphics class. Western ' s policy is to see that the work of the individual student is recognized. Through the use of student ideas and creations, the campus has found an originality and personality of its own. Few other schools can boast of as extensive use of student talent. Mr. Robert Scheiber teaches a class in siring instruments. 21 The core upon which Western Michigan Univer- sity bases its entire existence is that every student should have the knowledge, techniques, and the desire to live a reflective and discriminating life. To fulfill such a goal. Western has found the need for a department which will give its students some knowledge, skill, and perspective with regard to the processes of communication, the social sciences, the natural sciences, and the humanities. The Department of Basic Studies offers the op- portunity to achieve these values. Its aim isto open doors and present ideas, to stimulate healthy self- criticism, to introduce the student to the world of pressures, and changes, and of endlessly varied problems in which the responsible citizen must live. Taking the Basic Studies does not make a person professionally competent, but it does something more than that for it gives one the strong and sure tool with which to overcome and cope with the obstacles he will meet. One of the basic courses on Western ' s campus is Foundations of Western Civilization, here taught by Dr. Willis Dunbar. Dr. Howard Mowcn relaxes as lie lectures his class in Humanities, another basic at Western. 22 Air maintenance and flight training art ' becoming important parts of Western ' s curricula. Here, Dr. Clarence Van Deventer helps students with a plane. School of Applied Arts and Sciences The School of Applied Arts and Sciences includes the Departments of Agriculture, Distributive Ed- ucation, Home Economics, Industrial Arts, Indus- trial Technology, Military Science and Tactics, Occupational Therapy, and Paper Technology. The School seeks to assist young men and women in becoming happy, useful, and successful citizens in a democratic and technological society. Three educational needs serve as guides in planning the various courses of study within the school. First, the critical shortage of skilled and scientific manpower in business and industry is recognized. Second it accepts the responsibility of contributing to the student ' s understanding and appreciation of himself and his surroundings, and to his emotional, physical and intellectual growth. Third, the School attempts to assist the student in the development of desirable attitudes, habits and character traits essential for successful living in his home, com- munity, or occupational environment. l aper becomes alive under the mierosrope. Miss Tritlin explaite those little iihers that combine to make a pieee of paper. 23 Overhauling a motor is supervised by Mr. Robert King. In many occupational fields only one or two years preparation beyond the high school will be needed. For those who would seek top level positions in technical, engineering or education fields, four or more years of college preparatory will be necessary. The Department of Paper Technology trains men for one of America ' s fastest growing and major industries. There is close cooperation between mem- bers of the departmental staff and men from the pulp and paper industry, in that they serve jointly on committees regarding the Department ' s activities. Steady growth in activities and enrollment made it necessary to have five instructors on the depart- ment ' s staff. The students have their choice of three options in developing themselves for the paper industry: namely; Option I which trains men for technical work and production; Option II which trains men in allied industries to service the paper industry; and Option III which trains men in sales for the paper industry. Mr. Elmer Brime explains the intracacies of machine to a student. 24 Classes in cooperation with the Division of Field Service are given for the benefit of paper industry personnel in Kalamazoo and neighboring cities. The Department of Industrial Technology has two basic functions. First to train people for tech- nical positions in industry and second to train people for teaching positions in schools and indus- try. The product of this department should be able to engage in work that requires some of the know- ledge and skills of both the professional engineer, and skilled tradesman. He is required to know basic theories and to be able to apply them. The tech- nician usually specializes in one aspect of engineer- ing. He might for example, work as a draftsman, a detailed designer, a cost estimator, a production supervisor, or a research assistant. Cabinet making, an important part of a high school program, is taught in a future industrial arts teacher. Mr. Lawrence Brink puts his printing elass to work on school publications. Few students realize that the shops of the Indus- trial Arts Department contain well over $175,000 worth of equipment. One of the shops is exclusively for printing. There the college paper is printed to- gether with everything from posters, stationery and college catalogs. Next to this shop is the wood- working unit where such skills as cabinetmaking. patternmaking, and upholstering are learned. An- other very important shop is the machine shop where students receive direct training in the use of lathes, shapers, and all the other metal working tools. In addition to training teachers and offering a general degree for students, the department acts as a service department for occupational therapists, pre-engineers, and elementary teachers, who take such courses as descriptive geometry, leather and plastic handicrafts, and auto or power mechanics. 25 him to supervise or work with all types of mentally or physically ill children or adults. The number of practising therapists today numbers less than 5,000 while there are 8,000 vacancies in the field. The school has grown from two students in 1922 to the present enrollment of 152, with graduates scattered throughout the United States and Canada. The Home Economics offers four years of pro- fessional preparation and a Bachelor of Science degree for Homemaking Teachers, Dietitions, and Home Economics in Business, and in addition offers a two year Homemaking certified course. A future occupational therapist learns the methods of rug-making from Miss Marion Spear. The Department of Occupational Therapy of Western Michigan University is one of the oldest and largest of the thirty such schools approved by the American Occupational Therapy Association and accredited by the Council on Medical Educa- tion and hospitals of the American Medical Asso- ciation. The degree course may be completed in seven semester hours on campus and nine months of clinical experience in four different types of hos- pitals throughout the United States. Upon com- pletion of the course the student must successfully pass a comprehensive examination which qualifies More future O.T s work on stuffed animals, under the guidanee of Miss Rosalia Kiss. 26 Future hum ' economies teachers work on thri ving projects. Educational courses in agriculture have been a part of the offerings in Western since 1904. The purposes and functions in agriculture have been changed since its beginnings, but the need for such instruction can be said to be even greater because of the greater numbers of citizens who are depend- ent of its production and intelligent uses. In 1929 these courses were organized under the Department of Agriculture. The recent re-emphasis on courses in agriculture for all students, especially those preparing to teach, is a recognized responsi- bility of the Department. Western Michigan university has owned a farm since 1925. In 1928 this was increased to 149 acres. The College Farm provides a source of realistic and actual first hand materials for class room farm studv. Home Economics department has for its primary objective helping the individual student to achieve a rich and satisfying home, family and community life. It is concerned with the personal and group values that are desirable outcomes of successful living. It deals with the social, economic, esthetic, managerial, health, and ethical aspects of family relations and management, child development, foods, clothing, and housing. Home Economics is an education for personal development, for more satis- fying family and community living, and for areas of professional specialization.

Western prepares students for teaching courses in Basic Agriculture, entrance preparation for em- ployment in Soil Conservation Services, elevator and farm machinery services, and for transfers to the State College of Agriculture for Advanced specialized study in the various branches of the subject. The Distributive Education Department provides a well-rounded educational program for the indus- trially interested student in the Distributive Field. There will be various curriculums offered in this field. The first of these is in Petroleum Distribu- tion. It is a two-year co-operative school-work pro- gram. The teacher training phase consists in the preparation of teacher co-ordinators for co-operative training programs, school visits and the preparation of educational material. Members of the Distributive Edu- cation department are pictured, left to right: Raymond Dannenberg, Wendell Fidler. Adrian Trimpe and Eunice Kirchher. 28 EYKS RIGHT — KOTC unit passes in review before top brass from the army and school. The third phase or function. Adult Education, is also a service of the department for those engaged in full time work in the distribution of goods and services on both the employer-employee levels. The Military Science Department of Western prepares young leaders fo rail branches of the Army. An extensive curriculum includes military history, weapons, tactics, administration, leadership, drill, the organization, functions and missions of the Army, intelligence, military law, command and staff procedures, and a wide range of related sub- jects calculated to develop future Army officers. ROTC ' s orientation toward the future is best expressed in its motto: Learn Today - - Lead Tomorrow. Future officers hear the uses of Intercontinental Ballistic .Missiles from Master Sergeant Alaer. 29 School of Education One of the five schools here at Western is the School of Education. The School of Education con- sists of the following departments and agencies: Education, Librarianship, Physical Education for Men, Physical Education of Women, Rural Educa- tion, Campus School, Paw Paw Schools, and the Educational Service Library. A major objective of the School of Education is the supervision and co-ordination of all programs of teacher education within the college, in coopera- tion with the other schools and divisions concerned. This is accomplished by supervising the selection, admission and retention of students in teacher education curricula; by providing professional leadership through the Teacher Education Com- mittee of the College; and by offering professional education courses designed to develop competent, efficient performance in the classroom and within a school system. In cooperation with the School of Graduate Studies and the Division of Field Studies, the School of Education provides courses and con- sultative services on campus and in the field for teachers, administrators, and other school person- nel in se rvice. A second objective of the departments within the school is the offering of advanced specialized courses in major and minor fields. Many of these major and minor sequences are designed for teachers, but others are offered as pre-professional areas in the training of public librarians, recreational diectors, and the like. Further contribution are made by the School of Education in the form of service courses and pro- grams for students in other schools within the col- lege; these are offered in all departments, but they are especially important in the area of Physical Educations. One of the responsibilities of practice teachers is to supervise noon-time panics at the Campus school. 30 Students pick up sin 1 1...I.I. Practice Teaching 1908. .Major responsibility for the continuous develop- ment and improvement of the teacher education program here at Western resides with the Depart- ment of Education. The staff is composed of men and women who have been selected on the basis of their competence in the area of teacher education. They are familiar with, and aware of, the problems faced by the teacher in the classroom and school community. 31 The objectives of the Department are many and varied; its job is to produce understanding and cap- able educators, though this cannot be taught solely through classroom lectures. Only through actual classroom experience can the individual bring his knowledge, skill, and insight into being. The educa- tion of a teacher lies in not only the program of the Department; it includes all departments and facil- ities of the college. The White House Charter of Education for Rural Children states: Every child has a right to teach- ers, supervisors, and administrators who know rural life and who are educated to deal effectively with the problems peculiar to rural schools. To that end training in this department is directed. Western was the first teacher ' s college to establish a Rural School department, a department that now offers a two year program as well as its four year curriculum. Many students take advantage of the two year program and complete their degree require- ments either by extension or summer course. The Department of Librarianship was created in 1955-1946 to provide opportunity for the prepara- tion of librarians to serve in school libraries and also in public libraries. With the ultimate growth of the department, a graduate program was estab- lished in 1953 which is in line with the trend in library education which points to a five year cur- riculum as the minimum for the professional librarian. The library resources of the Kalamazoo area offer a wide variety of laboratory experiences and opportunities for observation. Field trips are made to libraries, schools, and to industrial plants in related fields. Each student in the Librarianship curriculum is required to have a supervised field assignment in one of the cooperation school, public, county, or regional libraries. Alice LeFevre instructs class of future librarians. 32 A general phys ed class tries their hand at a game that is played like football, on a basketball court, using a basketball, and scoring as basketball. Mr. Stevens puts a general phys ed class to work on the parallel bars. Physical Education for Men This year the new University Center enabled the Phys Ed department to add bowling to their list of courses. The Department of Physical Education for Men believes that a well-trained body is just as essential to the college student as a well-trained mind. Under the direction of Mr. Mike Gary the department includes four major interrelated programs: physical education for non-specializing students, intra-mural athletics, and inter-collegiate athletics. Through these programs the department aims at the im- provement of health and physical fitness through pleasurable exercises, the indoctrination of desire- able health habits through a realization of benefits of a group activity and exercise, and provides an opportunity to participate in a varied activities program, either at the intra-mural or inter-colleg- iate level. This year the department offered courses that varied from technical courses about an individ- ual sport to a beginning class for swimmers or bowlers. Phys Ed majors and minors try their hand on handball and badminton. 34 Volleyball is an old favorite with student a:id instructor alike. Mr. Stevens instructs a class of swimmers that range from semi-professionals to non- swimmers. 35; Anyone for Badminton; The Women ' s Physical Education Department offers a variety of courses, both general and spec- ialized. Programs of physical education are set up for minors and majors in the Department as well as for the girl who does not intend to specialize in physical education. Through the department, the girls develop an appreciation of play and recrea- tion as a vital part of living — whether as partici- pants, informed spectators, or listeners. Courses are offered in games, sports, swimming, and dancing which provide a varied choice of activities for students. Also playing a vital part in the programs set up by the Department is the understanding of the importance of physical activity in relation to the health of the individual.

This preparation is based on a broad professional educational level and embraces three major areas: a foundation of liberal arts and science to give him a deeper under- standing of his relationships to social, economic, political and cultural trends, a thorough grounding in the fundamentals through Avhich our free enter- prise economic system efficiently and effectively operates and an opportunity for further study in certain specialized areas leading to a profession or career in business and management.

Since September 1952, Western has been author- ized to offer graduate curricula in all areas involved in the preparation of teachers, administrators and supervisors for the public schools of Michigan. The college awards an M.A. to those persons who satisfy the requirements of one of these curricula under the regulations developed by the School of Grad- uate Studies and approved by the State Board of Education. Shortly after the independent graduate program was initiated, certain modifications were made in its administration. In order to service persons whose occupations were in the social fields, it was agreed to accept for the undergraduate requirements in education credits in fields allied to education. It soon became clear that in addition to these offerings certain other areas of graduate work needed attention. One in particular involved the training of teachers for the junior colleges. The program that was developed represented a marked change in the pattern of graduate offerings. The curriculum, instead of emphasizing course work in the field of professional education, emphasized course work in the academic fields. At the present time, programs leading to Masters degrees in various areas of the Liberal and Appllied Arts and Sciences are being developed. 42 M H 90V Student Council The Student Council has long been recognized as a training ground for self-government and civic leadership. Its functions provide the university ' s student body with direct knowledge of the nominat- ing, campaigning, and balloting processes connected with elections; the use of parliamentary law, and the responsibility of providing business, social, and service projects to the campus, and the manage- ment of finances. These various functions are car- ried out under such committees as those of student life and interest, of research and student opinion. and of development of school spirit. Student Council, in conjunction with AWS and Men ' s Union, boasts a highly successful foster child program and provides a social calendar each sem- ester for everyone at W.M.U. The Western Way, the Student-Faculty Directory, and a religious booklet are all publications handled by Student Council. The Student Insurance Plan, Student Mimeographing Service, and the Grant-in-Aid Pro- jects are other credits to the student elected council. Row 1 — Jane Shaw, Mary Lynn Thompson. John Ayouh.

This year ' s president was Gary Walters with Dr. Leo Stine and Dr. George Bradley as faculty ad- visors. Plenty of good food was on hand ior the President ' s picnic, sponsored hy Student Council. 45 Associated Women Students The general purpose of the Associated Women Students is to encourage a fuller social life, pro- mote chances for leadership, and encourage schol- astic achievement. A.W.S. is recognized as the stu- dent government of and by the women and member- ship is automatic to all undergraduate women of Western. The governing body of A.W.S. is the Cabinet, which is a combination of Activities Board and Judicial Board; the members of these two boards consist of representatives from residence halls and women ' s organizations. The Cabinet handles the policy of A.W.S., the Activities Board is concerned with the social program, disbursment of funds, and scholarship. The Judicial Board upholds social standards through discipline and regulations. The officers are elected during Student Association elections held in the Spring. The Activities Board of AWS.

It consists of freshman women with outstanding grade point averages. Highlight of the morning is the tapping ot outstanding junior women to Arista Honor Society for Women. 47 On Armed Forces Day, Men ' s Union honors Westernites who gave their lives in the service ot our country. Monument is located m the archway of Kanley Chapel. Wen ' s Union The Men ' s Union Board is an organization com- posed of and dedicated to the male students at Western Michigan University. Its purpose is to pro- vide the students with adequate social, cultural and recreational activities. Every semester, all the men at Western auto- matically become members of the Men ' s Union Dy virtue of a student activity fee included in their tuition. This fee enables the Board to sponsor its many activities throughout the school year. The Men ' s Union executive board governs these activi- ties with the assistance of the chairman of the six planning committees. Along with the help of the chairmen, there are about twenty students who carry out the programs of the Recreation, Pro- blems, Boosters, Social, Culture and Publicity com- mittees.

To conclude this year ' s activities, the Men ' s Union sponsored its annual Cotillion Ball. Beyond any doubt, the Board ' s most outstanding donation to the school this year was the sponsor- ship and installation of ODK, the men ' s honor society. This organization serves to recognize and promote leadership and scholastic capabilities among the male students on Western ' s campus.

Founded in March, 1955, it is still in its infancy, but it has already gained one of the six leading positions of campus organizations. Its membership includes every person who lives in a resident hall. Each hall has three representatives on the Resi- dence Hall Council. The purpose of the Association is to promote social, political, cultural, and academic cooperation among the halls and thus bring the students closer together through active participation in a common organization. Activities for the year include, the Freshman Open Air Dance, an Exchange Dinner, All Campus Christmas Caroling, Christmas Formal Dance, Co- ordinated Mixers in each Residence Hall, the Red Cross Blood Drive, Bridge Lessons, Bowling, ping pong, and golf tournaments.

WIDR operates with a two fold pur- pose in mind; to provide radio programs of informa- tion and entertainment for students in the dormi- tories and to provide opportunities for interested students to acquire experience in radio planning, production and control. With new, modern studios in the University Center the station is able to broadcast from noon to midnight dailv. The staff of WIDR is trained in practices and techniques conforming as nearlv as possible with commercial broadcasting stations. The service is provided through transmitters in each dorm which receive the programs from tele- phone lines and convert the signal into radio waves. In addition to the programs originating in their own studios WIDR enables students to hear WMCR, Western ' s F.M. radio station.

Women ' s Debate During the past decade, the women ' s debate schedule has consistently included participation in discussion and legislative activities as well as de- bate. In 1957-58, WMU women participated in seven state and national debate tournaments, one discussion conference, and two legislative exper- iences. The unique feature of the 1957-58 season was the large number of public debates presented before high school, college and adult groups. On Sept- ember 20, WMU women debated Central Michigan College in a demonstration debate on Foreign Aid (the high school debate topic) for the H.S. Debate Clinic. Two TV programs added zest. Four of the girls discussed Labor Unions on WKZO-TV. On November 25, Pat Soderlind and Pat Dunn appear- ed on TV in a split-team debate on Science Educa- tion with M.S.U. Intercollegiate non-discussion debates were held with Bowling Green State University, University of Dayton, CMC, Albion and Battle Creek Commun- ity College. WMU women debaters enjoyed a successful year even though the squad included only two veteran debaters. Individual and team honors were won by both the novice and experienced debaters. The novice debaters were undefeated at the M.I.S.L. Novice Debate Tournament. At the Na- tional Tau Kappa Alpha Conference in 1957 and again in 1958, WMU women tied for second place in debate. In the 1957 single team tournament, Marilyn Savage and Pat Dunn lost only one debate. In 1958, the negative team (Karen Meisel and Pat Soderlind) lost only one debate and that to the University of Utah who won the tournament. Two individual awards were won by Pat Dunn for the third year: an award for excellence in de- bate at the M.I.S.L. Varsity Tournament and a Wachtel plaque as one of the four best discussants at the Mid-west Regional TKA Conference. At the 1957 National TKA Conference, Delia Elias was named one of the ten best discussants. Silting — Nancy Mason, Karen Meisel. Betly Knjala, Mrs. Delilee Herman.

This year fourteen men participated in ninety- seven debates, and five men participated in discus- sion conferences. Two television appearances plus debates before classes and regional service clubs added to the diversity of their program. Western men participated in the Michigan State Novice and Varsity Debate Tournament, the Calvin Round Robin Tournament, Navy Pier Freshmen- Sophomore Tournament, the Northwestern Invita- tional Varsity Tournament, the Notre Dame Na- tional Invitational Tournament, Xavier National Invitational, and the National TKA Tournament. At the West Point Regional Tournament, Lynn Clapham teamed up with Patricia Dunn of the Boh Morsink and Ken Kelley as they appeared on M.S.U. television program, Controversy. women ' s squad to carry Western ' s colors to the elimination round which they lost by a narrow- margin to Navy Pier. At the regional TKA discussion conference, Bill Dok brought home a certificate for excellence and at the national TKA discussion conference, Stan Kelley ' s superior performance gained for the school a Wachtel plaque which was awarded to the five outstanding schools from throughout the nation. On the debate side of the ledger, Western also shared in state, regional, and national honors. Bob Morsink, in his third and senior year of debating, was particularly effective in two TV performances. Lynn Clapham, a sophomore, won honors at the Navy Pier Tournament, Notre Dame Invitational, and ranked as one of the two superior debaters in the Michigan State Varsity Tournament. Ken Noble, a freshman, won honors at the Navy Pier Tournament and was ranked the number one de- bater at the Michigan State Varsity Tournament. Danny Turanek also won honors at the Navy Pier Tournament. Stan Kelley and Dick Chormann, in their first year of college debating, were undefeated in the B division of the State Varsity Tournament. While no state champion was officially declared. Western was the number one ranking team in the A Varsity Division. The team was composed of Clap- ham, Noble, Morsink and Kaiser. Larry Jones and Ken Kaiser, two up-and-coming freshmen, turned in several superior performances during the year and show great promise for the years to come.

Student Court During the time that most of the students are here at Western, chances are they will not see the Court function. There are students, however, who get involved in the infraction of social and parking regulations. These are the students who get the opportunity to appear before the Court. It is the function of the Men ' s Court to aid male students through counseling and necessary dis- ciplinary action, whether it be a traffic violation or an infraction of the basic rules of living in a col- lege situation. Members of the Court this year were: Donald R. Brems, Chief Justice; Ray Yander Steen, Asso- ciate Chief Justice; Bill Dok, John Milnes, Larry Harding, Robert Moody, Joe Zainea, Judges; Robert Hagerty, Recorder; Clem Nicoloff, Process Server; Dean Towner Smith and Sterling Breed, Advisors. 54 Alpha Phi Omega Gamma Phi. the 83rd chapter of Alpha Phi Omega, became national at WMU on March In, 1941, after being colonized in 1939. There are now over 300 chapters across the nation. The purpose of the fraternity is to assemble col- lege men in the spirit of fellowship and service: to the student body and faculty, to the youth and adults of the community, to the members of the fraternity, and to the nation as participating citi- zens. Each year Alpha Phi Omega participates in many activities on Western ' s campus. Every night a member of APO is at the infirmary during visiting hours checking on the needs of the patients. At registration time members assist at freshman orien- tation and in the enrollment of students in the fieldhouse. The fraternity renders service at games, assemblies, and many events by checking hats and coats, ushering, and taking tickets. In addition, the homecoming bonfire, the marshalling of the home- coming parade, the Keep Off the Grass campaign, the Christmas tree in front of the Student Center and the lighted cross on the chapel are services of A. P.O. The officers for the first semester were: Jack Eox, president; Pete Herber, vice-president; Ken Machata, recording secretary; and Don Zanger, treasurer. The honorary members are: J. Towner Smith, Dr. Faunce, Dr. Hilliard, Herb Williams and Rev. Yicterson. The faculty advisors are Dr. James Powell, Mr. Richard Shubert, .Mr. James Snyder, and Mr. John Lindbeck.

Many events are sponsored by the club: a Hallowe ' en masquerade p arty, Christmas party, and spring banquet. These activities are financed from the profit on their an- nual Christmas sale; in which hand made gifts are offered to Western ' s students and faculty. During the Festival of Arts, the club sponsors the Beaux Arts Ball and a student art show. The art show exhibits outstanding work done in Western ' s Art Department.

Sharon Under the baton of Professor Julius Stulberg the Western Michigan Symphony Orchestra spent an- other active year. It is gratifying to note that not all members of the orchestra are music majors, proof that the organization is open to all students at Western. The orchestra provides two annual con- certs which are played locally to appreciative aud- iences. In addition trips are made throughout the year to area high schools and assembly programs presented. It is no tall work and no fun, however, because besides the enjoyment received from a job well done members of the orchestra enjoy the pic- nics, parties at the Stulberg home and general get to-gethers that are held frequently throughout the vear. 58 WMU Band Western ' s Marching Hundred played for the home football games, the Homecoming parade, and took a trip to Bowling Green, Ohio, to play for the Bowling Green-Western football game. The band was directed by Leonard V. Meretta, assisted by Russell Brown with drum major Dick Swinsick and majorettes Sonie Rogers, Jody Marshall, and Mar- ilyn Otis. During the basketball season, the band was div- ided into two groups to alternate in playing for the home games. One of the high points of the year wa the winter concert on January 12, in Central High School Auditorium, at which time James Burke, eminent cornet soloist with the famous Goldman Band, was guest artist. The band presented several out-of-town concerts, broadcasts, and the annual Spring Concert in Kan- ley Chapel Court. Many band members were solo- ists and formed small ensembles for these concerts. For their final appearance, the band played for the Commencement Exercises. Officers for the year were: Zar dis Hoffman, president; Tom Carey, vice president; Julie Meikle. secretarv- treasurer.

The men who sing in the glee club are there because they like to sing and because they like to feel a part of an organization. There are trained and untrained voices alike, but all the men strive to produce good music. The Men ' s Glee Club has had a very successful year. They have given many high school assembly programs in the surrounding communities. In the spring the club took a concert trip. This trip is the climax of many adventures during the year. At this time fellow students have the opportunity to hear and see one of the outstanding organizations on campus — the Western Michigan University Men ' s Glee Club. 60 Women 1 s Glee Club This year the Women ' s Glee Club continued to present to the students at Western and to the people in and around Kalamazoo the same high quality of performance that is synonomous with its director ' s name, Mrs. Dorothea Sage Snyder. Before climaxing the year with its annual Spring Concert, the group performed at the Christmas Concert, A.W.S. Chocolate, Arista ' s Rose Dav and in many of the surrounding areas. The year was not all work and no play however, because a wonderful time was had at the Fall banquet and the end of the year picnic. Officers for the group this year were: Louise Van Horn, president; Lenore Feige, vice president; Janyce Babcock, secretary and Margaret Lambert, treasurer. Row 1 Jacquie Crane, Cecile allis.

Madrigal Singers The Madrigal Singers are a group of students from the University Choir who are interested in singing Madrigal Music. Every Friday afternoon they meet in Mabie Hall, where under the direction of Mrs. Dorthea S. Snyder of the Music Depart- ment, the members help to prepare a program of Madrigals, folk songs, spirituals and many other forms of acappeila music. This program is finally presented at the annual spring concert. In addition to this program the group usually goes on tour to many cities in the surrounding area. The girls in the Madrigals this year were: Nan Watterworth, Erma Stevens, Peggy Mater, Lenore Eeige, Janet LaDuke and Janyce Babcock. Male members were: Wade Jones, Allan Green, Richard Mundo, Robert Converse and Gordon Ondersma. 63 Ecos Espanoles Ecos Espanoles, the Spanish club on campus, was founded in 1949 and is both an educational and social organization. The purpose of the club is to give students an opportunity to become more fam- iliar with the Spanish language and customs. Mem- bership is open to all Spanish students or anyone having a knowledge of or interest in the Spanish language. The club meets the first Tuesday of each month. During the meetings they have guest speakers from Mexico and South and Central America who fre- quently show movies of their countries. Also stu- dents who have traveled in these countries and in Spain show movies and speak about the particular country visited. Programs are given by the club members, and they occasionally present a Spanish play to the club. Tuesdays the club sponsors the Spanish Table at the University Center where students are given the opportunity to practice speaking Spanish. Other events during the year are: a Homecoming coffee in honor of all alumni of the Spanish Club and Spanish classes; an annual Christmas party; and a picnic at the end of the year. The club also at- tends Spanish plays and movies whenever possible. This year the club was led by Thalia Rairas, president; Karen Meisel, vice president; Mary Vast-Binder, secretary; Ron Spaeth, treasurer. Mr. Herb Jones and Mr. Frederick Trezevant acted as sponsors to the group. Row J — Frederick Trezevant, Herb Jones, Mary Vast Binder, Thalia Bairas, karen Meisel. Ron Spaeth.

The initial stress of Le Cercle Francais is still in evidence today: the dedication on the part of its membership to the greater realization that only through a common language is a common under- standing of the world possible. To this end, Le Cercle Francais has given unreservedly of its time, effort and knowledge. This is due in no little measure to our sponsors. Miss Marion Tamin and Dr. Frances Noble. Without these two great women, this club would not have reached its present position. Le Cercle Francais is the largest departmental club at Western, with many annual activities: pro- ducing a French play annually to encourage stu- dents of the nearby high schools to enter the lang- uage field is one of its leading activities. Through the years, the club has sponsored two trips to Canada, one to France, an annual trip to Ann Arbor, and numerous trips to Chicago. It has played host to many distinguished visitors from France and elsewhere in the world. The round table, now held in the L ' niversity Student Center, gives an opportunity for practice to all people interested in speaking French. We, the members of Le Cercle Francais are proud of our long and glorious history, but our eyes are to the future, and our future is in the hands of its leaders.

Some of the areas represented besides the U.S. are: Bolivia, Egypt, Ethiopia, Formosa, France, Greece, Haiti, Hawaii, Hong Kong, Japan, Jamaica, the Philippines, and Singapore. The objective of this organization is to promote through various activities, friendship and better mutual understanding between American students and those from other countries. Membership is open to all students on campus. Two types of meetings are held. One type consists of a business meeting followed by an interesting and informative program, usually on some area abroad and often presented by a member from that area. These programs range from movies and slides to native folk songs and dances. The second type of meeting is a recent innovation. It is a purely social get-together where everyone can have a good time participating in activities they enjoy. This allows the members to become better friends through close acqaintance. Leading the group were Michael Zeller, president; Litsa Tsaoussoglou, vice-president; Peter Massad, secretary; and Carol Heym, treasurer. Sponsors were Mr. and Mrs. Fred Beeler, Dr. and Mrs. Herman Rothfuss, and Mr. James Boynton. 66 Der Deutsche Verein Der Deutsche Verein is a social club for ad- vanced German students, also open to first year students who show outstanding interest, ability and proficiency in the German language. The German club holds its meetings on the second Wednesday of each month. The three Wednesdays are set aside by many German students to gather at the round table in the Student Center from six until seven. This is an excellent opportunity to get together her informally and practice the spoken Germa n. The meetings consist of various activities geared to broaden the student ' s understanding of and in- terest in Germany and the German language. Ger- man films, talks and slides about Germany, pro- grams featuring German music and composers, poets and authors, are some of the ways in which the student becomes familiarized with German language customs and the German way of life. Officers this year are: Bryce Forester, president; Lalita Lacis, vice president; Hanne Bach, secre- tary; and Ilze Broze, treasurer. Sponsors are Miss Mathilde Steckelberg and Dr. and Mrs. Rothfuss.

The primary interest is to have social fel- lowship with one another and to develop interest in the field of Social Work. The club meets every third Wednesday for a business meeting. Officers for this year were: Charles Dickson, president ; Dale Brown, vice president ; Mary Ellen Robinson, 2nd vice president; Mary Ann Farmer, secretary; and Nancy Mosier, treasurer. Sponsor- ing the group this year was Mrs. Nellie Reid. 67 Western Wives Western Wives, an organization designed to pro- mote friendship and social activity among the wives of the students and to aid these wives in sharing the experiences of college life, was started in 1948. The organization meets once a month when a var- iety of entertainment is provided, such as prize win- ning games, white elephant sales and interesting speakers after which, the wives have an opportunity to intermingle to establish new friendships. Some of the wives are students themselves, but most of them are working on their P.H.T.S. degrees. This honorary degree is granted to the wives upon the graduation of their husbands. The letters sym- bolize ' ' Put Hubby Through School and is one of the most complimentary honorary degrees one can receive, because it is the symbol of sacrifice. 68 Pershing Rifles Pershing Rifles is a national military fraternity with company-sized units established in ROTC pro- grams on many college and university campuses throughout the United States. The history of the organization is one of dedication to the principles of General John J. Pershing: duty, honor, country. Pershing Rifles is considered to be the outstanding elite ROTC organization. The unit here at Western Michigan University is Company H, third regiment. The Commanding Officer is Captain Jan S. Monningh; the Executive Officer and Drillmaster, First Lieutenant Richard B. Hauck; the Adjutant Officer, Second Lieutenant Peter H. Herber; and the First Sergeant, Irving S locum. Other officers include Second Lieutenants Harvev Zoller and Edward Gotlieb and Warrant Officer Larry Woodard. These men form the core of leadership that directs the unit in its major activity of providing an exhibition drill team for the university. This team not only participates in cam- pus activities where such a unit is required, but competes in regular competitions with other mid- western schools. Company H has a short but ad- mirable record as a competitive team. Reflecting the spirit of a new and growing uni- versity, P.R. is developing leadership and dedica- tion among the men of the Corps who choose to avail themselves of this opportunity. Under the sponsors. Captain M. K. O ' Rourke and S.F.C. J. Lowry, P.R. provides the basis for the development of those principles of duty, honor, country. Row I — Larry Woodard, Harvey Zoller, J. S.

Initially it was a military society dedicated to military professional better- ment and good citizenship through the tenets of the officer ' s code, Duty - Honor - Country. Meetings are held the first and third Thursday of every month. Programs are arranged to provide information on both military and other interesting subjects. A special orientation is given every Spring for the juniors in the society for preparation of summer camp. The Military Ball is presented by the organiza- tion in the Spring. Other activities are the presenta- tion of the Torch and Blade Award for Outstand- ing Military Appearance to a cadet enrolled in the basic course. Officers for this year are: Fred Nichols, Com- mandant; John Lamont, Executive Officer; Ken Xakakura, Adjutant; Mike Zeller, Quartermaster; Frank Vogel, G-l; Dick Smith, G-2; Carl Helser, G-3.

Sigma Alpha Tau In March of 195 7, a group of young men met to discuss the reorganization and reappearance of Sigma Alpha Tau on Western ' s campus. The need for this honorary aviation fraternity had been felt for sometime, and with the increased growth of the Air Transportation curriculum, the time to take a big step forward had arrived. Today, Sigma Alpha Tau is firmly established as the only honorary air transportation fraternity at Western. With a program of speakers and repre- sentatives from various airlines and aviation in- dustries, Sigma Alpha Tau is often the first real contact with the Air Transportation industry that the student has. Often it does research on positions. and obtains information on jobs for its members. Sigma Alpha Tau not only promotes the Air Trans- portation industry at Western, but it further pro- motes Western to the Air Transportation industry. It is doubtful if any campus organization would ever be formed without a purpose or an objective. Usually these are integrity, fellowship, leadership, scholarship, or equally honorable objectives. Though Sigma Alpha Tau works to attain these, it has still another objective. We can look back and be proud of what Sigma Alpha has done — but much more important and necessary is the need to look ahead. Serving Air Transportation and the future, are the greater objectives of Sigma Alpha Tau. 71 Pi Omega Pi The Gamma Alpha chapter of Pi Omega Pi is a national honorary business education fraternity. It endeavors to create a fellowship among teachers of business subjects, to create and encourage interest in business education, to encourage and foster high ethical standards in business and professional life, and to teach the ideal of service as the basis of all worthy enterprise. The group meets once each month and every spring holds an initiation banquet for its new mem- bers. Sponsors of the group are Miss Agnes Ander- son and Mr. George Cooper.

Kappa Delta Pi The Beta Iota Chapter of Kappa Delta Pi was founded on the campus of Western Michigan Col- lege in January, 1929. The purpose of the society is to encourage high professional, intellectual, and personal standards and to recognize outstanding contributions to education, as well as to promote a closer bond among students of education. The members are elected in their junior or senior year on the basis of scholastics, personal attributes and leadership qualities. The meetings are held the first Thursday of every month, except December, in the Administra- tion Building. A varied program of interest in the field of education is presented. One of the most interesting of programs this year was the tea where the members of the chapter and the members of the Department of Education honored Dr. Ben- jamin Fine, the educational editor of the New York Times. The officers for the 19S7-S8 school year are: Helen Couturier, president; Marlene Van Hall, vice president and program chairman; Joann Hanna, secretary; and Barbara Fiedorek, treasurer. The sponsors are Mr. Harvey Overton and Mr. David Adams. 73 r W i Nancy Bullach • ARISW Judy eisgerber Peggy Wallace Peggy Skabo Hazel Beckwitb Ardyce Lyon Arista Arista, a Greek word meaning best , is the Women ' s Honorary Society on Western ' s campus. Members are chosen for their outstanding qualifica- tions in the areas of scholarship, leadership and service. A member of the National Mortar Board Execu- tive Council will be visiting Western next year to consider Arista for membership. Arista has been working toward this title since 1944, and now both Arista and Western feel prepared for definite con- sideration. In preparation the Aristans have been visiting Mortar Board members in Kalamazoo, to learn more about this National Honor Society. Honoring leadership among the women of the Senior Class is the purpose of the Annual Rose Day, held in the chapel each spring. To continue serving the school, Aristans ushered at the February Graduation and were hostesses at the A.W.S. Christmas Chocolate. Wearing their traditional cap and gown the girls rode in the Homecoming Parade. Perhaps they asked you to buy a carmel apple at the Freshman Carnival. To climax the annual A.W.S. June Breakfast, the Aristans tap the new Junior members who then begin their year as Aristans . Officiating as president was Peggy Wallace; Hazel Beckwith, vice-president; Nancy Bullach, corresponding secretary; Judy Weisgerber, record- ing secretary; Ardie Lyon, treasurer; and Peggy Skabo as publicity chairman. Assisting the group as sponsors were Miss Elizabeth Lichty, Mrs. Lucille Yost, and Miss Ethel Green. 74 Qmicron Delta Kappa On May 17, 1958, the seventeen members of the Men ' s Honor Society, Hesperus, were initiated as the charter members of the Xational Men ' s Honor Society, Omicron Delta Kappa. Four faculty mem- bers were also initiated at this time as charter mem- bers of the group. Hesperus was presented its charter on December 11, 1957 by President Paul Sangren, but behind this presentation lies an im- portant development on Western ' s campus. For many years the Men ' s Union Board had selected a Man of the Year from among the out- standing seniors. With the increase of enrollmen this task became an exceedingly difficult one, so in January of 1957 a committee was formed to investi- gate the matter. After several meetings, the commit- tee recommended the formation of a local society to petition the national organization, Omicron Delta Kappa. The men selcted to be charter members in this society were considered on the basis of scholarship and leadership. These men adopted the name, Hesperus, and set about the task of petitioning O.D.K. The petition was accepted and the Circle was installed on May 17. Charter members of the Hesperus society were: John Milnes, president; Spencer Smith, vice-pres- ident; John Berryman and Robert Peterson, treas- urers; Richard Barnhill, Don Brehms, Robert Geiger, Tom Goldsberry, Jeremiah Halbert, and Tom Rowley. Faculty members were: Charles Starring, secretary; J. Towner Smith, Dr. Oscar Horst and Robert Wetnight. These men along with Phil Barber, Curt Butters, James Eger, Dick Forde, Tim Lewis. Charles Vlnch and Robert Morsink were also charter members of Omicron Delta Kappa. Sitting — Dr. Chester Hunt, Mr. J. Towner Smith, John Milnes. Mr. Charles Starring, Dr. Oscar Horst.

Sigma Tau Chi Sigma Tau Chi, an honorary business society affiliated with the national since 1943, limits its membership to students enrolled in any of the bus- iness studies curricula who meet the requirements of the club. It is one of the largest co-educational organizations on campus. Meetings are both social and intellectual. Talks by leading business and professional men and women, tours of various industries in and around the city, and the annual banquet were some of the activities of the group this year. 76 The officers for the year were: Roberta Dykema, president; Ann Lewis, secretary; and Otto Laabs, treasurer. The club ' s aims are to promote scholarship, to develop closer coordination between college train- ing and actual business experience, and to aid in the placement of students both in the business fields and in the teaching profession.

The Alpha-Kappa chapter was organized on Western ' s campus and affiliated with the national organization in 1950. Membership is by invitation to the students and professional people who have done outstanding work and or achievement in these fields. The object of Epsilon Pi Tau is to further, in all ways, the cause of Industrial Arts and Voca- tional Education throughout the United States and also, to create a closer bond of fellowship between the men who are active in these areas of education. However, our primary purposes are three fold: to recognize the place of skill, to promote social and professional proficiency and to foster, reward, pub- lish and use the results of research. Our annual events include the formal initiation dinner and a breakfast at the yearly conference of the Michigan Industrial Education Society. The monthly meetings are highlighted by speakers who are leading educators or industrial businessmen and then followed by interesting discussion periods. The officers for the 1957-58 school year were: Roland Lubbinge, president; Larry Vanden Tak, vice-president; Ronald Kennedy, secretary; Kerry Smalla, treasurer; Mr. Lawrence Brink and Dr. Don Nantz, sponsors.

Alpha Beta Alpha Alpha Beta Alpha, the undergraduate national fraternity in library science, was installed on West- ern ' s campus in December of 1957. The organiza- tion, formerly the Colophon Club, began locally in 1947 for students who are majors or minors in the Department of Librarianship. Under the present national affiliation, graduate students are extended an invitation to attend the meetings, but cannot vote. One Wednesday evening of each month is set aside for meetings and programs planned to broaden the professional interests of the members. High- lighting this year was the Alpha Beta Alpha Book Fair held in December. New books were sold and good bargains on old books were offered. It was a most successful project and plans are underway to make it an annual affair. The Book Fair featured an author, Mrs. Lucy Gallup, a graduate library student, who autographed copies of her latest book, Spinning Wings. Honors came to another member of the library department this year. Miss Mate Grave Hunt, a sponsor of the fraternity, was called back to Texas where the Texas State Teachers ' Association hon- ored her at their annual meeting as one of the out- standing teachers of Texas children. Speakers and a field trip to the Upjohn Library rounded out this year ' s program. Socially speaking, members enjoyed the tradi- tional Christmas party which Miss Alice LeFevre, head of the Department of Librarianship, gracious- ly holds in her home. In the spring members an ici- pate the annual picnic, a delightful way to bring the year to a close. Dr. Fred O ' Hara, chosen as a sponsor in Sept- ember, was replaced by Miss LeFevre, because of illness. Serving with her as sponsor was Miss Mate Grave Hunt. Kay Cosgrove presided over the 1957- 58 meetings, with Glenda Peck as vice-president; Joan Carl, secretary; Jean Carl, treasurer; and Kay Witherall, corresponding secretary. 79 The purpose of Panhellenic Council is to unite and govern the Greek women ' s sororities on the Western Michigan University campus. Its member- ship is chosen from and elected by the individual sororities which it represents, each sorority sending a Senior Representative and a Junior Reprsentative to the Council. These members keep a steady link between sorority and Panhellenic by transmitting information and views between the two. Panhellenic Council this year sponsored, under the chairmanship of Myrna Cook, the Fraternity workshop in March. Attended by Panhellenic Coun- cil and all sorority members, the problems common to all sororities were discussed in this meeting. The biggest event of the year was the Panhellenic Ball in January, which introduced the debut of new pledges to the Greek world. This was under the chairmanship of Win Myers. The Juvenile Home is the scene of one party each month, sponsored by the sororities through Panhellenic Council, and under the leadership of Angie Spehar. Also this year Panhellenic and Inter- Fraternity Councils joined to give a Christmas party at the Home. In May, the Greek men and women united to plan Greek Week. This was highlighted by the Greek Week Ball and the crowning of the Greek king and queen. Co-Chairman for this was Nellie Lou Simmons. Sponsors of the Panhellenic Council are Dean Elizabeth Lichty and Mrs. Marguerite Patton. City Panhellenic, also represented on the council, was honored with the tea given in early Spring. The officers for 19S7-S8 were: Chairman, Ardyce Lyon; vice-chairman, Carole Mendels; recording secretary, Ursula Knop; corresponding secretary, Mary Lynn Thompson; and treasurer, Joan Bayne. Other officers were: philanthropic, Angie Spehar; social, Lee Kopas; house, Carol Plakke; booking, Joan Schreur; and publicity, Sue Hume.

Inter-Fraternity Council The Inter-Fraternity Council is the governing body of Western ' s nine social fraternities. The presidents and two representatives from each of the social fraternities meet weekly to discuss, advise, and govern the affairs of the organizations separate- ly and to work together on mass projects and activ- ities. The officers for the council are: Harry Dhondt, president; Tom Howard, vice-president; Bill Gocha, secretary; and Gene Miller, treasurer. The council ' s Christmas party activities this year included a for underprivileged children of Kalamazoo, Greek Week and a Fall and Spring Mass Rush. This year, an annual Mid-American Workshop Conference was organized of which Western ' s Inter- Fraternity Council became a member. In Novem- ber, the Inter-Fraternity Council also became a member of the National Inter-Fraternity Council. The Inter-Fraternity Council has been expanding and growing along with Western. A continued growth in ideas and accomplishments shows that the Council is a valuable part of Western ' s social organizations and has contributed much to the university ' s welfare and social life. Symbol of Friendship as the years go by is one of the main reasons AOPi was founded. Friend- ship is promoted through the many activities that the girls work on as a group: the Homecoming float, which won an honorable mention in the Sorority-Fraternity division; Dad ' s Day with a luncheon at Inman ' s; The Panhellenic Ball; the Rose Ball, the AOPi closed dinner-dance; Sorority Sing; Greek Week activities; house party and frat- ernity parties. AOPi ' s philanthropic project is the Frontier Nursing Service in Kentucky. The proceeds from the Campus Couple Fling, which honored Sue Savage and Bob St. Gordon, and the Doll Sale help to support this project. The International Convention of Alpha Omicron Pi was held in June at the Edgewater Beach Hotel in Chicago. The purpose was to exchange ideas; each chapter sent delegates. Wearing the president ' s ring is Anne Beth. Help- ing Anne are Wanda VanDenBerg, vice president; Barbara Brainard, treasurer; Jan Yilke, correspond- ing secretary and Deanna Robertson, recording sec- retary.

Alpha Chi Omega Exciting was the word for the year of 19S7 for Alpha Chi Omega sorority! First of all came the sorority sing when they won for the third year in a row. The song which retired the cup to the Alpha Chi ' s was Gordon Jenkins ' Manhattan Towers arranged and conducted by Nan Mason. Receiving the sorority scholarship cup was another note- worthy event. A.W.S. ' s annual June Breakfast brought more honors to the Alpha Chi ' s, when three sisters were tapped for Arista and three of the new initiates were on the daisy chain. The newly initiat- ed members of that year made games and therapy materials for the Upjohn School cerebral palsy division as a pledge project. Sponsors for this year were Miss Margaret Feather and Mrs. R. F. Snyder. They helped with the fall activities which included a coffee for the Alpha Chi Dads on Dad ' s Day , and Campus Capers , and open dance for students of the Uni- versity. An honor received, but not yet mentioned, was an Alpha Chi National Scholarship cup accepted for Gamma Xi by Nan Bullach, president, at the biennial convention held last summer in Pasadena, California. Other officers for this year were First Vice President, Judy Henderson; Second Vice Pres- ident, Peg Wallace; Recording Secretary, Lori Boy- ajian; Corresponding Secretary, Pat Ronan; and Marge Shaw, Treasurer. 84 One of the social events of Alpha Chi was a Come as your favorite record party given by the pledges for the actives.

Alpha Sigma Alpha Alpha Sigma Alpha was first organized on West- ern ' s campus as a local group, Alpha Sigma in June of 1952, and was installed as a chapter of the national sorority in April, 1953. The primary pur- pose of Alpha Sigma Alpha is to foster close and lasting friendships, having as its four-fold object, the physical, spiritual, social, and intellectual de- velopment of its members. A loyal and sincere interest among all members, developed by shared ideals, by planned and com- mon efforts has made this year a successful one for the Alpha Sigs. The Alpha Sigs began the year by entering an Oriental booth in the annual Freshman Carnival. This event was followed by the traditional Fireman ' s ball, which was a big success. Rush this year brought seventeen pledges, whom we became better acquainted with through numerous good times. Next on the calendar came Homecoming with a float and an Alumnae Coffee. Our dads were enter- tained at our Dad ' s Day Banquet, November 16. Participation in the Delta Upsilon Variety Night brought the Alpha Sigs a first place prize for their skit. 86 The Christmas season brought a party and Christmas caroling. The pledges were honored at a banquet preceding the Panhellen ' c Ball. Spring activities included a Mother ' s Day Banquet, a closed dance. Sorority Sing, particpation in Greek Week and a House Party. The officers for the year were: Carol Drennan. President; Lenore Falvey and Sallie Duisterhof, Vice Presidents; Ruth Schaaf, Recording Secretary; Joanne Kudawski, Corresponding Secretary; Pat Winters, Treasurer. Sponsors were Mrs. R.

Delta Zeta Gamma Pi Chapter of Delta Zeta sorority once again brings an eventful year to a close. With the usual enthusiasm the girls took part in their annual activities. Participating in the Fresh- man Carnival with a booth started the year. This was followed by the Buttons and Beaux dance which is sponsored by the sorority, the D.Z. Alum- nae Coffee at Homecoming, the Dad ' s Day Lunch- eon, and Panhellenic Ball which climaxed the first semester. Second semester was the time for Sororitv Sing, the Mother ' s Day Luncheon, Greek Week, and finally their House Party at St. Mary ' s Lake in Battle Creek. In the philanthropic spirit the Delta Zeta ' s feel their volunteer work for Kalamazoo ' s Family Ser- vice Center was of great value. This goes right along with the aims of Delta Zeta sorority which are to promote high scholorship, maintenance of fine social and moral standards, firm and lasting friendships, and wholehearted cooperation with the L T niversity ' s administration. Executive duties were performed by Faye Neid- linger, president; Sharon Wurfel, first vice-pres- ident; Alice Fitch, second vice-president; Jo Neder- lof, recording secretary; Jean Hansen, correspond- ing secretary; and Judy Berghuis, treasurer. This year ' s sponsors were Mrs. Donald Prange and Mrs. Homer Cox. Before Sorority Sin? of 1957, three Delta Zeta ' s pose for their picture.

Since its establishment in 1874, Sigma Kappa has emphasized good scholar- ship, service, cultural development and fine spirit- ual standards. In carrying out these aims the Sigma Kappa ' s engaged in many activities throughout the year: a booth at the freshman carnival, homecoming coffee, rush, Neptune ' s Nocturne dance, Spring house party, a Mother ' s Day luncheon, car washes, rum- mage and smacker sales, and fraternity parties.

The Founder ' s Day Banquet in April marked the sixtieth anniversary of Tri Sigma ' s founding at Longwood College, Farmville, Virginia. In addition, the girls enjoyed many informal activities within their own group and with their parents including luncheons, chocolates, house pajama parties and Senior Send-Off. In the Spring, we were busily preparing for Sorority Sing and Greek Week.

Theta Up silo n Not to be outdone by the activity of the flu bugs and the rapid rate of building on Western ' s campus this past year, the members of Theta Upsilon were equally busy with projects of their own. At the Freshman Carnival, their hat salon was literally a crowning success. During Homecoming weekend, they honored their alumnae a ' , a coffee; and in keeping with the theme of Homecoming Parade, they entered a float depicting the Lowell Showboat. The following weekend, a record dance featuring DJ Don Turner was held in the Student Center. On Dad ' s Day, the members treated their fathers to a smorgasbord dinner after the game and both pledges and actives joined in singing sev- eral songs which had been recently composed by members. 94 Fraternity-Sorority parlies are fun tor everyone. Other social events during the year included a Pajama Party given by the fall pledge class, sev- eral teas, and parties with fraternities. Christmas and Rummage Sales were held preceding Christmas recess. In the way of philanthropic work, articles of clothing, books, magazines and toys were col- lected and sent to Berea College in Kentucky and to the Navajo Assistance in New Mexico. The events of Greek Week and other Spring activities found the Thta ' s eager participants. The mothers of members were honored in an initiatory degree at the Mother ' s Day luncheon. Those who held offices this year included Deloris Crittenden, prsident; Paula Boothby, vice-pres- ident; Mary-Ellen Fitch, secretary; and Helen Meier, treasurer. Sponsors are Mrs. Paul V.

It is both a social and service organization for girls. Omega Chi Gamma women are encouraged to be active both as individuals and as a group in campus affairs. The group activities include participating in the Homecoming parade, a Thanksgiving service project, the annual Bumble Bee Bounce, an East- er project, Mother ' s Day banquet, the officers In- stallation banquet and many informal parties. Officers for the year were: Mary Jo Clark, pres- ident; Dixie Lee Finch, first vice president; Fran- ces Griffith, second vice president; Andie Zidars, corresponding secretary; Melva Kivlen, recording secretary and Jan Culler, treasurer. Mrs. W. B. Culler, Mrs. Orville Hurst and Mrs. Joseph C. Szalkowski acted as sponsors. 96 Chi Sigma Kappa So much to do through strength, tolerance, and unity in the eyes of God. The motto of Chi Sigma Kappa highly exemplifies the feeling shared by the brothers, who made a dream a reality. Chi Sigma Kappa was formed on Western ' s campus by a group of sincere men. who realized the need for a new social fraternity in a growing university. Through diligent work in the fall sem- ester of 1957, 40 men worked in unison laying plans for the day when they would become a new fraternity at Western. Now in the spring semester of 1958 our work has reached a head, and our hope has been fulfilled. With a little over a weeks recognition as a frat- ernity, the Chi Sigs tackled the job of building a snow sculpture for the winter snow carnival. The work put forth paid off, for the Chi Sigs ' first competitive outing netted them a place among the top three in the sculpture contest. The ideals of the Chi Sigs are high. The brother- hood obtained from living and learning together is imperative, in challenging the troubled world sur- rounding us. The future holds many hopes which the men of Chi Sigma Kappa feel, that through working together will be accomplished. The officers for this semester were Robert War- ren, president; Charles R. Betteley, vice president; Robert Lipske, secretary; James Stanner, treasurer; and Paul Robert, Marc Hansen and Capt. Michael O ' Rourke, sponsors.

Mackinac Bridge — Delta Chi ' s homecoming float. 98 Working together on such activities as Home- coming and Greek Week, the men of Delta Chi have had the opportunities to show what close co- operation and team work can do. The Delta Chi Christmas Ball, one of the most popular social events of the year, was made even a bigger success this year by bringing in Duke Ellington. Participating in such activities as skit night, car- nivals and civic projects. Delta Chi re-emphasized its value to the university and the community. Several times during the year they were asked to help on such projects as Red Cross and the Mus- cular Dystrophy drives. On the sports scene, they captured the fraternity softball championship and were runners-up in num- erous other intramural activities. Among the numerous improvements made during last year at 820 West South Street was the addi- dition of a modern commissary capable of serving the members of the house. The pledge banquets, parties and serenades, oc- cupied the majority of the remaining time of the members of Delta Chi. In believing that greater advantages can be of- fered by a group of college men, Delta Chi has proven its theory. Delta Chi believes it has much to offer an individual and that an individual has much to offer Delta Chi. These two premises to- gether make for a strong united fraternity with a close knit brotherhood. l ' rt ' paiinji thr orchids for the Delta Chi Christ- inas Ball calls for a party. A Fraternity-Sorority party is always good for laughs. 99 Delta Sigma Phi For the third year in a row Delta Sigma Phi has brought home the overall first place trophy in the annual Snow Carnival. We think this is symbolic of the Brotherhood and spirit of co-operation which exists at 821 V. South Street. 1958 marks the tenth year that Delta Sigma Phi has shown the way, contributing campus leaders, outstanding varsity athletes, intramural champions, and a general spirit of engineered leadership on the campus. Delta Sigma Phi seeks to foster high scholarship and a well rounded social life for its members. The Carnation Ball was the highlight of our fall social calendar. This was the first big dance in the ball- room of the new Student Center. The dance was a big success and was well received by the campus. We of Delta Sigma Phi feel that any man can find his place in our organization, and extend the invitation to all male students to join us in the bond of Brotherhood.

U. house served two purposes It was our entry in the snow carnival and helped advertise our dance, the Sweetheart Ball. Delta Upsilon Within a short walking distance of campus is the dOO block of South Street. Here can be seen large, impressive Victorian houses, all arranged in neat order, one after the other on both sides of the street, an artifact of bygone days. In the middle of the block stands the old stately Todd house, a monument to Victorian dignity. Her ceilings are too high, her walls are cracking and the floors and stairways speak in a creaking voice of her glorious past. More than a few times her furnace has been known to compete with the eruptions of Mt. Vesuvius, leaving the house, like Pompeii, under a fine coat of dust and soot. There have been times when all hands have had to muster in the basement for bailing detail to prevent the pride of the occupants from floating ignominiously down the street. .J i - i • r - jff K i ■ J 102 But say what you may, this imposing manor is more than a house, it is the fraternal home of Western ' s Delta Upsilon men. Call these men lazy and incompetent, slow and independable, yet these men can be found in almost every nook and niche of campus activity. These are the men who endeavor to uphold the high ideals of university life and fraternal devotion, the Delta Upsilon men. The past year has seen the officers ' roster en- hanced by such names as Marvin Freedman, pres- ident; Ron Steele, vice president; Don Campbell and Bob Lyman, treasurers and Bob Beegle and Howie Anderson, secretaries.

Phi Sigma Epsilon 104 Phi Sigma Epsilon, in their second year of na- tional affiliation, bought a house at 1003 Short Road and are taking part in all aspects of campus and Greek life. Activities for the year include the annual Spring Fever Ball, Homecoming open house, pledge dinner dances, serenades, sorority parties, the semi-annual regional conclave, intramural sports and Greek Week activities. The Phi Sigs ' float for homecoming brought hon- orable mention and the scholastic trophy was kept for the second semester in a row. Phi Sigma Epsilon was established to promote a closer bond of friendship among men of higher learning, so they might enter into a more intimate fellowship with those dedicated to education. This year, the officers were: Bob Rosinski, pres- ident; Ted Vander Ploeg, vice-president; Ted Byrd, recording secretary; Gene Logan, corresponding secretary; Bill Bennett, treasurer.

Michigan Beta was organized at W.M.U. as a colony in 1950 and was a colony until its affiliation with the na ' .ional frat- ernity in 19SS. Housed in their relatively new house at 305 Stuart, the Sig Eps take part in all aspects of cam- pus and Greek life. As in any fraternity the Sig Eps have many functions for the brothers. In addition to social functions, the men of Sigma Phi Epsilon are proud of their scholarship program, constructive pledge period, and most of all, their close brother- hood. One of the things the men of Michigan Beta are extremely proud of is that the fraternity is com- posed of college men of various types and back- grounds. All aspects of the brothers ' interests are consid- ered and every effort is made to bring out the best in the brother. A Mom and Dad ' s Club, the Sweet- heart Club, frequent meetings with the Alumni Association and visits to the other chapters in Michigan are but a few of the chapter activities. The constant aim of Sigma Phi Epsilon is a frat- ernal organization built on a solid foundation guid- ed by idealistic concepts and dedicated to the wel- fare of the brothers, who have been chosen for themselves alone. Officers for next year are: President, Harvey Zoller; Vice-president, Phil McPharlin; Secretary, Don Nichols; Comptroller, Jim Karling. Anyone for Calypso? 106 Row 1 — -Mel Schnepp, Ed Rogers.

Their pledges are not assigned tasks that the actives will not readily do, and their gigs are worked off by doing odd jobs around the house. This not only helps to brighten the house but also helps everyone to get acquainted and provides a sound basis for their brotherhood. The officers of Chi chapter of Sigma Tau Gam- ma are: Robert Anderson, president; Charles Christisen, vice president; Keith Huey, recording secretary; James Drake, treasurer; and Larry Glynn, corresponding secretary.

Tau Kappa Epsilon During the year, the Tekes upheld their national reputation for dynamic activity and expansion by taking part in most campus social activities, stu- dent government and the maintenance of a well functioning fraternal organization. The year 1957 will go down in the memories of the men of Teke as the year they fulfilled their greatest desire: they purchased and occupied a new fraternity house. This beautiful structure is located at 427 Stuart and will house over forty men. Homecoming saw the return of over one hundred fraternity alumni and their wives who were feted by a reception and a buffet dinner at the house, thus marking it as a truly successful homecoming. 110 Their fine social calendar included pledge ban- quets, numerous sorority parties, a ' gangster party, and of course, their annual closed formal dance, The Ides of March. In maintaining their prestige on campus, the men of Tau Kappa Epsilon have always based their membership on personal worth and character. Officers this year have been: Jim Slis, president; Bill Mills, vice-president; Gordon Smith, secretary; and Bob Cannell, treasurer. Sponsors are Dr. Robert Seber and Dr. George Mallinson.

The objectives of Alpha Gamma are fulfilled through regularly scheduled meetings each month and such special meetings as are thought necessary. Members are chosen by invitations from among those who have acquired at least six semester hours in geography and geology, declared the intention of a major or minor in geography and geology, and have been approved by the members of the chapter and the faculty of the department.

The Society for the Advancement of Manage- ment is a national organization both at college level and at management level in business. A student member of SA.M. may, at his own option, retain his membership after graduation. The purpose of S.A.M. is to further the academic knowledge of students who are interested in any management phase of business. Our program is constructed in accord with this primary goal. Some of our activities are seminar-type tours of local industries, such as Fuller Manufacturing Company and New York Air Brake Company. In addition to these seminars, we have frequent speakers to talk on topics in which the members are interested. Due to our fine programs, our chapter has ex- perienced a tremendous membership growth this year — nearly three times larger than last year. We have been rated by the national organiza- tion as the second best chapter in the state of Michigan, in which there are seven other chapters. This year, we are striving for the top rating. We welcome all of you who are interested in receiving first hand information in management activities and the latest trends in industry. Those students in business, economics, engineer- ing, industrial technology, paper technology and any studies directly related are eligible to apply for membership in S.A.M. 133 Row 1 — Norman Hosking, Walter Bednarz, John Hefferman, Rick Geer, Fred Tornquist, Robert Pabreza, Roger Long, Jerry Wittbrodt, Fred Mischke, Floyd Glish, Leo Boike.

Alpha Kappa Psi The student management day committee of Alpha Kappa Psi plans the organization for placing students in their vocational choices for a day. This year ' s committee of Don Yerxa, Don Ferguson, Dick Dzied- zec ami Herb Dennis discuss the groupings. Alpha Kappa Psi is a professional business frat- ernity which aims to broaden the knowledge of its members and supplement their regular class work with a regular professional program. While this varies from year to year in extent and type of activities due to changing opportunities, most pro- fessional meetings call for a talk by leading educa- tor, businessmen, and representatives of the organ- izations in the area, followed by discussion periods. Such meetings are of extreme practical value, not only because of the knowledge they impart but also because they train the s udent to talk intelli- gently with his superiors. 134 The professional advantages are valuable, but they are not the only attraction. The fraternity realizes that social activities are a must to further its professional aims. The close fellowship that enables any group to function effectively is aptly supported and is carried out by the parties, ban- quets, picnics, intramural sports, and active par- ticipation in all college events. Alpha Kappa Psi also has a rich heritage which dates back to October 4, 1904. Besides having the distinction of being the oldest Business Fraternity, it has grown to be one of the largest national frat- ernities in the nation. This is evidenced by its many alumni who have distinguished themselves throughout industry and government. Alpha Kappa 1 ' si ' s bulletin hoard covers part of the scope of its activities throughout the year. Parties and social events, profes- sional tours, athletic functions and professional speakers.

At the monthly meetings, mem- bers hear talks by men connected with Paper Tech- nology or take a field trip through one of the paper mills near Western.

Officers for the year were: Everett Potts, pres- ident; Thomas Elias, vice-president; Arlon King, secretary; Philip Carey, treasurer; Leo J. Welling, alumni secretary.

This year the club added some activities which its members would like to see continued in the future. Among these were the Dad ' s Day Coffee and Open House, a Homecoming Float entry, the Christmas party for mentally retarded children, and visits to hospitals in the vicinity. Old traditions never over- looked are the Seniors ' Farewell party, the annual picnic, and the outstanding senior and O.T. Club member awards.

In order to help the stu- dents at Western who are planning to follow this profession, the club helps these students to under- stand what it means to select medicine as a career. The Pre-Med club was established in 1941 and has met regularly ever since. Programs are arranged to provide information. This is done by means of guest speakers, movies, field trips, tours, and group discussions about dif- ferent aspects of the general field of medical science. With the field becoming larger every day, emphasis is also placed on the large number of occupations opened for qualified individuals. Officers for this year were: Dick Lecuru, pres- ident; and Alice Miller, secretary-treasurer. The sponsors of this club are Mr. Merrill Wiseman and Mr. Lawson.

This club has been active since 1946, and its purpose is to provide an opportunity for synchronized swim- ming to those interested. The main activity is the annual water show pre- sented in the spring. This water spectacular culmin- ates a year ' s work on costumes, scenery, script and the swimming routines. The meetings, practices, and annual show are held in the pool in the Field House. Practices are held two nights a week in the pool on Tuesday and Thursday evenings. All the work of choreography, costumes, scenery and production is done by mem- bers of the organization. Each September tryouts are held on practice nights. No previous experience is necessary, mem- bers learn through drill and practice. Immediately after new members are oriented casting begins, as the numbers are written during the summer. From this time until the show, the numbers practice at their assigned times for one-half hour each week. Scenery, costuming and publicity committees are formed and are in action from the beginning of the fall semester. The organization has two sponsors: Miss Mar- garet Large and Mrs. Charlotte Boven.

The meetings of the club afford a good opportunity to keep the fellows in contact with one another after their respective sports ' sea- sons and to provide a mixing of the various sports and athletes. The club each year at its dinner dance recognizes all of the seniors in the club by presentation of a W Club ring for their service to the club. In addition to this, the club also recognizes the out- standing senior in scholarship with its scholarship trophy. The officers for the year are: Bob Geiger, pres- ident; Bill Waun, vice-president; Tom Wood, cor- responding secretary; and Lyle McAuley, recording secretarv.

At every game, every sport, rain or shine, win or lose, the girls that lead the cheers that inspire our Broncos on will be there. These girls have a diffi- cult task and should be commended for the fine work they do. They expect no thanks, just cheers; they will readily lose their voices — for your cheers; they ask nothing except that you give our warriors on the field, court, or wherever they may be, the strength of your voice — in a cheer. This year ' s squad was captained by Jan Sanderson and had a regular team of Mary Bachman, Marge Shaw, Sandie Judson, Pat Rasey and Katie Maleski. Al- ternates were Sally Vykydal and Nancy Patten. For serving as first year members Pat and Katie received trophies; as second year members Jan and Marge received W blankets and for serving three years Mary Bachman was awarded an engraved desk set. Cheerleaders are chosen every spring by a group of student campus leaders. Mr. Robert Trader serves as their sponsor. Nancy Patton, Jan Sanderson, Mary Bachman and Sally Vykydal lend the basketball squad a helping hand. 144 f|V9 1 1 ' I II t ., -J aBjfftjpwff iisS ' : ' ::l ' ' :-  S§B kS ■ ■: hh hh ■ VS 58 Sl!

Jim Shedd scores the first run of the vear. 147 Fritz Messner tallies for Western, but all eyes are on the loose ball. Coach Charlie Mahar ' s nine completed a success- ful 1957 season with thirteen wins and five losses. In Mid American Conference play the Western nine had a 9-0 record which entitled them to go into the District 4 playoffs. Contributing to the success of the Broncos were the bats of Fritz Messner and Ken Hamlin, who hit .426 and .341, and the brilliant pitching of Jake Rumohr, who allowed only three earned runs in 57l |j innings and finished with a 6-0 record. Dick Sosnowski earned a 4-1 record with an earned run average of 2.06. Messner led the club in hits with 28 and Hamlin in runs batted in with 28, including 7 home runs. 148 « g £ J ■ ;7 Terry Mack waits patiently while the Miami coach disputes the word of the umpire.

Track Western ' s thinclads piled up a successful indoor and outdoor 19S7 season with many individual and team victories. In the indoor season the two mile relay team composed of Alex Marshall, Don Brug- geman, Bill Pyle and John MacKenzie was ranked fifth in the nation after their outstanding showings in the Chicago Daily News Relays ( 2 ) , Cleveland Knights of Columbus meet (first, new meet record) and Milwaukee Journal Relays (third). Outdoors the trackmen handed Miami its first dual loss in the Mid-American conference by down- ing the Big Reds 84Va to 52 - 3 in a meet held in Kalamazoo in the rain. In the Mid-American meet Miami nosed out Western by 1 point, despite the winning of five firsts by Western. 152 ■ ' ■ '  In a field of more than thirty schools at the Cen- tral Collegiate meet, Western finished fourth be- hind Kansas, Notre Dame and Marquette. At the Drake Relays the distance medley team broke a school record to win the meet for the second year in a row. Other school records were broken at this meet by the 440 and 880 yard relay events. The two mile relay team composed of Alex Marshall, Don Bruggeman, John Mackenzie and Bill Pyle were clocked at 7:39:8 and ranked tenth in the nation. Distance star Bill Pyle was rated in the top ten of the collegiate two milers and turned in an excellent time of 0:15:6 for that event. In the Drake meet, Ira Murchinson turned in a 0:9:5 for the 100 yard dash, running in the rain. He was beaten by Bobby Morrow. Olympic 100 meter champion. At the NCAA meet Ira tied the world record for the hundred (9:.?) but was again edged out bv Morrow who was also clocked at 9:3. Sizing up the height of the pole vault is Jerry Beckner. John MacKenzie scores points for Western against Miami by placing first in the half mile event. 153 SCORES WESTERN 71— Central Michigan 51 WESTERN 42 y 2 — Marquette 51 J ' — Michigan State 61 WESTERN 104 — Bowling Green 4.?

As is always the case in writing about Spring sports of a year ago the praises of deeds seem so lifeless especially after you have seen the name of many a freshman last year doing so well within the ranks of the varsity this Spring. The freshman team of the Spring of 1957 will be remembered by the coaches not only of Western but of all the schools they competed against for their many fine performances. 156 Left to Right — Coach George Dales, Dave Redding, John Worden, Jerry Ashmore, Ronald Hopkins, John liurk.

Seven members was all the team consisted of at the end of the year, but all were of such top quality that Western remained at the top of the pile in Cross Country meets. Cross Country means that one must run over a course that is five miles long. To accomplish this is in itself a feat, but to do it in as fast a pace as they set is a tribute to physical endurance. 157 Coach Hap Sorenson, Larry Yoder, Denny Walton, Denny Telder, Cliff Strong. Jeff Wayman, Jack Rafalli. Varsity Tennis Western ' s netters captured the Mid-American conference tournament for the fourth consecutive year with a grand slam performance. A grand slam is the winning of all singles and doubles flights wherein the players play in their flights according to position on their individual teams. Western is the only team in the league to accomplish this feat. Along with the Mid-American title the Western- ites posted a dual season record of 8 wins and 4 losses. Captain Denny Telder of Grand Rapids played number 1 singles and along with Larry Yoder, number 2 singles man, formed the number 1 doubles team. Cliff Strong and Jack Raffalli formed the number 2 doubles squad and played numbers 3 and 4 singles respectively.

These men, under the guiding hand of Coach Roy Weitz, developed in practice the ART of wrestling. College wrestling is not like the variety one sees on T.V., but a sport wherein coordinating and physical fitness is stressed. It is not easy to be a wrestler for there are many holds one must learn to use effec- tively and also one must develop the art of break- ing a hold applied by an opponent. This year ' s freshman squad consisted of: Ted Beckner, Phil Clark, Dick Cook, Jim Cousins, Dave Demorest, Dick Green, Arthur Haas, Gerald Hepler, Bill Show, Ken Sullivan, Tom Tedus, Paul Toth, Errol Vining and Larry Wright. 160 Ron 1 -Alliums.

They participated in six matches with var- ious Mid-Western schools and ended up with an overall record of 1-1-4. The win was against Wayne University, the tie against Chicago and the loses against Western Ontario, Wabash, Bowling Green and Notre Dame. The consistent winners on the squad were Bill Karpinski from Dowagiac competing in the 165 lb. class and Dick Olmstead of Kalamazoo, in the 175 lb. division. The rest of the squad consisted of Ken Yoshida, 123; Roger Altimus, 130; Frank Rzeszut, 135; Gene Downie, 145; Doug Wree and Pat Dempsey, 155; and Dennis Kelan, heavyweight. 161 Varsity Golf Under Coach Roy Weitz, the Western Golfers turned in an impressive 8-4-2 record and finished fourth in the Mid-American conference meet held at Kent, Ohio. The overall team average for the dual season was a 77.5. Tom Arch was the team leader with an average per round score of 75.

Coach Ed Gabel ' s squad participated in seven meets this year plus the Mid American conference meet. The latter meet was held at Western and saw the Bronco swimmers finish in fourth place. Jerry Beckner was the team ' s leading scorer compiling many points with his artistry from the diving board. Jerry placed in every meet he participated in and ranked third in the conference meet. Al- though he dived from both the high and low board, Beckner ' s art shows up greater on the high board. Wynn Berry placed fourth in the conference in the 50 and 100 yard free style attempts. Don Baker, another senior from Bay City was the team ' s sec- ond leading scorer in spite of the fact that he was hampered in the early part of the year by illness. Tom Wood, co-captain, along with Jerry Beckner, aided the team in the short distances and the fine showing he made as anchor man on the relay squad. Bill Powell, back stroke man, and Charles Lynch, free style, were elected at the close of the season to be co-captains for next year ' s squad.

Hampered by a lack of depth and height that is needed in Mid Amercan and all college ball, the hoopsters turned in a 5-19 record. There were some individual standouts for the club, but the lack of depth was disastrous to the club playing its first year in the new fieldhouse. Denny Tepe, the little guard from Indiana, al- though only 5-10 gave the crowds something to cheer about when he pushed in his accurate long one handers or displayed a bit of fancy ball hand- ling. Easy Edgar Blair, in his junior year at West- ern, tried to keep the Broncos on top with rebounds, hook shots and his out court shooting, but even Ed ' s 6-6 was not big enough to match most of his opposing centers. Captain Bill Waun was slow in starting but helped the Broncos near the end of the season. Some other good performances were turned in by Herb Wood, Charlie Mitchell, Lyle McAuley, Paul Hendricks and Keb Roselli. 167 Front Ron- Dave Kollat, Charles Mitchell, Edgar Blair, Bill Waun, Paul Hendricks, Lyle McAuley, Dennis Tepe.

Playing a total of 16 games the frosh, under Coach Tom Slaughter, put together an im- pressive 15-1 record. The team showed many ex- cellent players and a promising crop of tall men that the varsity was sorely in need of this year. The varsity will benefit greatly in the 1958-59 season from the recruits off the freshmen bench. SCORES Frosh 73 72 Alumni Frosh 68 59 Calvin J. Y.

Schlosser was aided by Bill Rowekamp, Dick Racklovits, and Roger Chiaverini and a host of Sophomores. The first game of the year set the pace for the inspired Broncos when they defeated Central Mich- igan by a score of .53-0. They lost the next two to Miami and Marshall, but the Marshall game was not without thrills. Lovell Coleman, fleet Soph- omore halfback from Hamtramck, took a kickoff three yards behind the goal line and scurried the length of the field to paydirt. The run set the record for the longest at Waldo Stadium. Bowling Green was the next on the schedule and the bat- tling Broncs won a moral victory by gaining a 14-14 tie. Youngstown University, substituting for a flu ridden Washington squad, suffered a 25-14 setback before the Homecoming crown. After losing to Toledo and Ohio U., the Broncs defeated West- ern Reserve and finished the season by topping Kent State before a large Dad ' s Dav audience. WESTERN, versus Notre Dame about 1928. 173 Here come the Broncos. Spearheading many of Western ' s drives were quarterbacks Don Gill and Jim Kolk. Captain Bob Mason suffering from injuries was out most of the season. Kolk, a sophomore from Cedar Springs, showed some outstanding ability as field captain. Lovell Coleman and Jesse Madden kept the Broncos moving with some fine running. On the receiving end of passes were Joe Griggs, voted outstanding player, Bob Geiger and two promising sophomores. Jay Roundhouse and Bob Blackwell. Some of the other outstanding sophomores were : Fletcher Lewis, Bill Pappas and Ted Binkowski.

Many of the players showed great promise and will be ready to get into action on the varsity club in the 1958 season. Out of the four games they played the frosh turned in three victories and one defeat. The defeat to the always powerful Bowling Green freshmen.

This is the time when Greeks from each fratern- ity and sorority work together in fun and competi- tion. The members of the committee are represent- ing their respective sororities and fraternities in planning a week of work and play. Picnics, Projects, Track Meets, and Dances bring the Greeks together in a whirl of festivities. High- lighting the Week of May 3 through May 1 1 will be the Greek Ball to be held in the Student Center Ballroom. To reign over the week ' s festivities, a Greek God and Goddess are chosen. This honor will be be- stowed on two deserving Greeks, who will be crowned at the Toga Twirl. 192 if 1 1 •• aw Student art objects displayed during Festival of Arts Week. Festival of Arts The annual Festival of Arts was held on Western ' s campus from March 16 through April 3. Art, literature, music and drama combine to make this yearly event a memorable one. On the opening day, the student art exhibition started in the McCracken hall galleries. This was under the supervision of Tim Lewis. ' ' Street Scene was presented by the Western J ' layers March 2r through 29, under the direction of Dr. Zack York. The international, award-winning Japanese film, Jigokumon (Gate of Hell) was shown Sunday, March 30. The movie is called one of the finest Japanese color films ever released. Under the direction of Julius Stulberg and Mrs. Dorothea Sage Snyder, the Will ' choral and or- chestral groups presented The Disguised God. This is a lyric suite by Lars-Erik Larsson, with words by Hjalmar Gullberg. Ethel Green and Thomas Hardy gave soprano and baritone solos, while Zack York contributed spoken verse. The Relevance of Ancient Books was the topic of a lecture given by Dr. Moses Hadas, a professor of Greek at Columbia University. He is also an author, editor and translator of classical literature. John Kemper designed the Festival of Arts pro- gram cover. General chairman of this year ' s Festival was Clayton Holaday. Three students discuss some of the paintings displayed in McCracken Hall. 193 Assembly Program Assemblies this year brought a wealth of talent to the Western Michigan University campus. Feat- ured attractions ranged from ballet to hypnotism. In October, the University Programs Committee presented Melissa Hayden and Michael Maule in a dance recital. Appearing with them was the Uni- versity Symphony orchestra. Included in the pro- gram were the Pas de Deux from ' ' Swan Lake, two solos from Stravinsky ' s Firebird Suite and the Pas de Deux from Tschaikowsky ' s Nutcracker Suite. Highlighting Education Week on Western ' s cam- pus was the lecture given in November by Dr. Ben- jamin Fine, education editor of the New York Times. He discussed how an educated people move freedom forward. Dr. Fine received his Ph.D. from Columbia University and his Ed.D. from Bryan College. Christmas time brought with it a moving pre- sentation of Handel ' s Messiah, by the Music De- partment. A total of 262 students and faculty mem- bers joined forces to produce this work. Mr. Robert Schieber directed the 37-piece orchestra. Dr. Elwyn Carter directed the choir. Soloists were: Miss Ethel Green, soprano; Mrs. Mercella Faustman, alto; Mr. Sam Adams, tenor; and Thomas Hardy, baritone. In January, students and faculty had the oppor- tunity to see Shakespeare produced. The Canadian Players presented Othello to an appreciative aud- ience. They are recognized as the best troupe of actors on the North American continent. Directed by Douglas Campbell, the play had as its stars Tony van Bridge, as Othello; Dawn Greenhalgh, as Desdemona; and Max Helpmann, as Iago. Dr. Benjamin Fine as he appeared during Education Week. m Atomic Energy in the Fields of Agriculture, Medicine and Industry was the topic of a discus- sion in February. Dr. George Bradley, of the nuc- lear physics laboratory at Western, introduced the speakers. They were: Dr. M. Kukodac, associate professor of horticulture at Michigan State Univer- sity; Dr. Bernard Nebel, chief scientist, Argonne National Laboratories for Biological Medicine in Chicago; Dr. E. W. Phelan, staff assistant to the Director of the Argonne National Laboratories; and Attorney R. J. Cushee. Rudy Mann, a hypnotist, gave a lecture in April. He is noted as the originator of the Hypnotone and master of the subconscious. In April, Dr. Harold Urey, renowned scientist, told his audience that ' ' The standards of elemen- tary and secondary education in the United States have declined during the past SO years and the level of college education has barely been main- tained during the past 40 years. Dr. Urey is a member of the Institute for Nuclear Studies at the University of Chicago. Following a newly-adopted policy, some of these programs have been co-sponsored by various de- partments and organizations. Noteable among these was the Society for the Advancement of Manage- ment, which aided on the Atomic Energy Pro- gram. A panel of Atomic Energy experts was brought to our campus by S. A. M. and tbe Student Council. 195 John Miles and Nancy Butlerworth captured the audience of Carousel with sincere acting and tine voices.

Terry Moore, center foreground, had the empathy of the audience when she portrayed Rose Maur- rant, in Street Scene. The University Players directed by Dr. Zack York, Dr. Wilson and Mr. Fabre DeChaine turned out some outstanding productions this year. Mr. DeChaine set the pace by starting the year with a musical, Carousel . Combining the singing and acting abilities of students, this production will long be remembered by those who saw it. Dr. Wil- son directed the next production, the classical farce Tartuffe. ' ' This was the first effort of Dr. Wilson on this campus and one that set the standards high. The final student production was Street Scene , directed by Dr. Zack York. Attempting a play few amateur groups would try because of the large cast needed (53), Dr. York put on a realistic production that Stanislavski would be proud of. To round out the theater year Dr. Wilson staged a faculty reading of Tiger At the Gates. A nov- elty at Western this production set the precedent for a median that should not be dropped. Miss Ann Shaw climaxed the year with the children ' s theater presentation of The Little Rabbit That Wanted Red Wings. The children ' s theater is a specialty of Miss Shaw and one in which students and children are introduced to the life of the theater. _ V- L ' -jr - ■ LI Jfc f ™j - m I H| A ■£.■ 1 ■ 1 Jjjjl w QQ i ' ■ '  m - M . ■ . a -, § i . .

Health signifies the adjustment to living which comes from mental, emotional and physical well-being. Many ran recall this scene during the flu epidemic. Miss Pond, in charge of Health Service. The purpose of the student health service at Western Michigan University is to help students develop an appreciation of the essentials of health- ful living; to assume the responsibility for intelli- gent self-direction, and a knowledge of when to ask for expert advice. Full time students ( those registered for nine or more hours) are entitled to medical care for minor illnesses and emergencies in the health service clinics and infirmary. The Health Service provides the services of medical and surgical consultants, psy- chiatrists, a dermatologist, and a dentist as well as a full-time staff of registered nurses. These services are free to the students during the scheduled clinics but a nominal charge is made for medications. The main clinic and infirmary are located on the east campus in the Health Service building. The clinic on the west campus is in room 139 of the administration building. Clinic hours are Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. and Saturday, from 9 a.m. to 12 noon. 200 University Publications The news of Western is brought into the public eye through the efforts of Mr. Russell Strong. Russell Strong. Publicity Director. Perhaps the busiest man on campus is Russell A. Strong, publicity director for the university. Mr. Strong edits the WMU News Magazine, an alumni publication which is issued four times a year; the supplementary News Letter, which ap- pears eight times a year; the weekly Faculty Foot- notes and Graduate Student. In addition, he has been working on brochures for the various depart- ments. As if that wasn ' t enough for one person, he sends some 25,000 articles on student achievements to their home town newspapers each year. Mr, Strong also is advisor to the Broun and Gold yearbook. Background for this work was attained when he worked at the Kalamazoo Gazette. Mr. Strong took his present position at Western in 1951. 201 Students Activities Committee Mr. Norman Russel, J. Towner Smith, Herb Jones, L. Morris MeClure, Phil Zwergel, Gary Walters, Alice Jaeobson, Diek Forde, Dean Barnum, Ardyce Lyon, Janet Shaw, Mrs. Betty Householder.

There are articles to write, articles to type, copy- reading to be done, pages to make up, headlines to write, proofs to be read. There are pictures to be taken and ads to be sold. But — in the midst of all of this — there ' s an at- mosphere that can be found nowhere else on cam- pus. It ' s an atmosphere of forty people working together toward a common goal and there is the pleasure which comes of seeing the product circu- lated on campus every Friday morning. It ' s a big job, but a rewarding one. It ' s a job that never ends, from the moment school begins in September until the last final exam has been taken in June. This year, the staff has been headed by Al Conn, editor; Kay Higbee, news editor; Dan Beckley, sports editor; Phil Adams, feature editor; Karen Gernant, business manager; Nancy McCand- less, circulation manager; and Bob Disbolis, ad- vertising manager. 203 Elaine Rasmussen, Mary Ann Oilman, Nancy Poff, Jim Theisen, Leonard Latham, Jane Olson and Phyllis Mintz — part of the members on the staff Phil Adams, feature editor Kay Higbee, news editor Dan Berkley, sports editor 204 Karen Gernant. business manager Talking over some last minute changes are Kay Higbee, Alan Conn and Joyce Lude. 205 Brown and Gold Tim Lewis, Art Editor Advisors Mr. Russell Strong, Mr. John Kemper and Mr. George Kirby.

This building, opened in the fall of 1957 contains a huge ballroom, snark bar, bowling alleys, game room and many individual rooms for meetings. 211 Alumni Services Richard Barron, Assistant Director Alumni Relations. Mr. Richard Barron has the task of uniting the alumni at Western into close knit organizations. Throughout the year Mr. Barron makes trips with- in the state of Michigan and in some of the sur- rounding states in an effort to aid in the formation of alumni groups and making those that are already formed stronger and more united. The need for Alumni Organizations was explained by Mr. Barron in a Western News Magazine this year. The five points he considers should be noted by graduating seniors and undergraduates as well, some day you will be an Alumni of Western Mich- igan University. First, through regular reports from the campus at organization meetings and the publications the alumnus can be kept will informed about trends and events on the campus. Second, the University needs to know how its graduates feel about institution policy and growth. An alumni organization provides the natural and effective channel for the expression of alumni opin- ion. The necessary function of keeping the Univer- sity informed is alumni business. Third, the pressure of numbers seeking admission to higher education is ever increasing. It is impera- tive that our institution continue to up-grade its admission standards. Our alumni are in a position to identify the student of outstanding ability and to advise him of his opportunities at Western. Fourth, the responsibilities of university status do not always carry with them an increase in finan- cial support. Yet, our role as a multi-purpose in- stitution cannot be ignored. To attract and keep the brilliant student or the outstanding youth of athletic or musical talent, we must have a greatly expanded program of scholarship aid. In this case, local alumni organizations could assume responsi- bility for increasing the scholarship and research funds available. It is not our intent to coerce or plead with alumni for a hand-out. We respect the intelligence of our alumni too much to attempt such tactics. Fifth, we must have a means of sustaining the wonderful loyalty which burns with varying de- grees of intensity in the heart of every graduate and friend of W T estern. Through pleasant and reg- ular social fellowship among alumni and contact with the campus this spark of loyalty can be re- kindled and maintained. Well planned programs of local alumni organizations are needed to provide a means for fellowship among Westernites. There is a place and a job for everyone. To do the ground work in preparing for organization out- standing local leaders are needed. To carry the program forward imaginative members are needed. To reach the high goal of a responsible role in the support, interpretation, and improvement of higher education at Western Michigan University organ- ized alumni participation is needed. 212 M President Secretary Treasurer Vice President Spencer Smith Janet J.

Some of the activities sponsored by the girls in- clude: the Draper-Siedschlag formal, open house, exchange dinners, pajama parties, faculty dinners. Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners, mixers and coffees. Officers for the year were: Betty Ash, president; Ursula Knop, first vice president; Betty Tiggle- man, second vice president; Peg Wallace, secretary; and Pat DeWeese, treasurer.

Dedi- cated in 1949 in honor of Ernest Burnham, one of the first instructors at Western and an outstand- ing figure in the History of Michigan ' s educational system, the hall houses almost 300 girls. Formerly a men ' s dormitory, it was converted in September into a Women ' s dormitory. The girls in Ernest enjoy a full social calendar including exchange dinners with Smith Burnham and the other Men ' s dorms, the annual Christmas and Thanksgiving dinners, coffees, teas, pajama parties and with the help of their adjoining dorm, a Christmas party for under privileged children. The task of directing the dorm for the first year was placed in the hands of Mr. and Mrs. Harry Hefner, assisted by Barbara Gaylor. Polly Krogman was elected president in September and the staff assistants were: Patricia Butler, Jane Smith, Shirley Lambka, Barbara Ritchie and Frances Ridolph. E.

Siedschlag Hal Traditions are important to the girls in Siedschlag Hall and one of the unique things about the Hall is its lasting traditions. The sleeping under the Christmas Tree in the lobby is one of these tradi- tions, as is the signing of the recreation room posts by the seniors. In addition to the traditions the girls enjoy the annual Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners, Easter Breakfast, exchange dinners, pajama parties and the Draper-Siedschlag formal. Serving as president for the 1957-8 year was Peggy Skabo. She was aided by Ruth Clark, vice president; June Whitmore, secretary and Marge Anderson, treasurer. Joyce Julian assisted Mrs. Chapman as the resident director. 254 The girls of Siedschlag Hall are proud of Miss Lydia Siedschlag for whom their dorm is named.

Spindler Hall Lavina Spindler Hall for Women, located on the East campus. Our home away from home . . . this is Lavina Spindler Hall to the 200 girls that live here on the east campus under the skilled guidance of Mrs. Edith Lake, housemother, and Miss Marie Fors- gren, assistant housemother. Every girl shares in the many activities that are planned to make the year a rewarding one. Because of the warmth and friendship extended by Spindler ' s leaders, each girl is made to feel that she is an integral part of her college home. 256 The year ' s activities included get-acquainted parties, punch bowls in the lobby for everyone, after-dinner coffees, and birthday and exchange dinners. We built a homecoming float and later opened our doors wide for Flapper Daze, our Open House. We co-sponsored the R.H.A. Hallo- ween Hop. For our Thanksgiving Breakfast, we invited guests and ate sumptous holiday meals. The year was coming to an end as we invited our dates to the Spring Formal and then bade our seniors farewell and best wishes at the Senior Farewell Dinner. To represent Spindler in every phase of dorm life, the girls elected Hazel Beckwith, president; Sylvajean Hauch, first vice-president; Mary Brock- meier, second vice-president; Janet Zilke, secretary; Fran Danley, treasurer; and Patti Lu Riley, pub- licity director. Early in the morning, the senior women carolled through the halls to hring the Spindler Women to their traditional Christ- mas Breakfast with many quests. One of the favorite pastimes in Spindler Hall is group singing. This group usually gathers around after supper for a moment ' s relaxation. 257 The Women of Zimmerman Hall enjoy the pleas- ant surroundings of their home away from home. The dormitory, unlike other girl ' s dormitories, is separated into suites with four girls occupying each suite. The arrangement of the rooms is not the only thing the girls are proud of, for Zimmerman is proud of all their activities. Senor Jones, honoray house father, betas Mrs. Hinkle inform the girls ami hoys that closing time is near. Zimmerman Hall The girls of Zimmerman prepare for the coming of St. Nirk. 258 The girls like to get together at Christmas and decorate the tree, all join in building the home- coming display and float, and the whole atmosphere of the dorm is one of working and enjoying things together. At Carnicus , the girls bought Senor Jones and for a week he was officially the House father of Zimmerman Hall. Mrs. Mabel Hinkle served as House mother and was assisted by an able staff of officers including Shirley Jardine, president; Jan Sanderson, vice-president; Ruth Schaaf, second vice president; Roberta Swanson, secretarv and Barbara Ritchie, treasurer.

Ellsworth Hall Mrs. Dorothy Cox, Cinda, and Mr. Homer Cox, the director and family. Frank E. Ellsworth Hall for Men was dedicated last year as the first of the dorms in the University center project. Named after Frank E. Ellsworth, director of the Training School from 1916 to 1938, the men of Ellsworth try to live up to the high ideals that were the basic philosophy of their name- sake. Guided by Mr. and Mrs. Homer Cox the men participated in all school functions and demonstrat- ed the fierce pride they have in their dorm and their dormmates. ' At Homecoming time their display showing the abundance of industry in Michigan captured the trophy for third place in the dorm division. This makes the second year in a row that their house display placed among the winners. The cooperation of the Men at Ellsworth also shows through at the Athletic events around school, by the Ellsworth cheering section. In addition, the many intramural teams that originated in the Halls of Ellsworth showed the lively spirit of its occu- pants. In addition to the regular activities Ellsworth Hall encourages the mixers, coffees, teas and ex- change dinners by active participation in these events. 260 The favorite time of Ellsworth is chow-time.

Smith Burnham Hall Smith Burnham Hall Dedicated in 1939, Smith Burnham Hall is a monument in honor of Professor Smith Burnham, L.L.D., fifty years a teacher, head of the History and Social Studies department from 1919 to 1939, outstanding citizen, valient champion of . . . right- eousness, lover of young people and loyal church- man. The stature of this man offers the Men of Smith Burnham a proud tradition. 262 Joint executive board of Smith and Ernest Burn- ham. Front row — Connie Homes, Mary Mueller, Polly Krogman, Sue Kraft.

This year the man of Smith had the wonderful experience of sharing the same roof as the girls of Ernest Burnham. The pleasant experiences of hav- ing a girl ' s dorm right next door will long be re- membered. The closeness of the girls allowed the men to have many mixers, coffees, and teas with them. Early in the year a joint council was formed, consisting of members of both dorms, to handle a full social calendar. This council proved to be of great success. The Burnham cheering section was organized this year and on Saturday afternoons during football season the Men and Women march- ed en masse to Waldo stadium to cheer our Broncos on. This plus the participation in the intramural program and the annual Festival of Knights made the year a pleasant one for Smith Burnham- ites. Mr. and Mrs. Archie Potter served as dorm directors and counsellors. 263 Vandercook House Council. Left to right, roiv 1 — John F. Steffen, David Cornell, Dale Brown, Pete Troost.

Vandercook Hall The men who live in Vandercook take great pride in their dormitory, and enjoy the friendly atmos- phere that exists there. Differing from the other dorms in that it has no cafeteria facilities, it does have a snack bar which adds to the friendliness of the Hall. The men like to stop in the snack bar for a cup of coffee or a snack, but mostly just to keep up with the campus talk and to spread a few- rumors. The memorable evening get togethers and dorm- itory smokers are as much a part of Yandercook ' s life as is its card games and annual closed dance, Teepee Tango. Dr. and Mrs. Robert Bowers and Mr. Charles Starring serve as dorm directors.

' ■■-- 265 Wallwood Hall Walwood Hall, the oldest dormitory on campus, is named after former President Dwight Waldo and Leslie H. Wood. The 120 men of Walwood participated in many campus activities during the past year. The dorm ' s homecoming lawn display, Wheels of Progress, won first place. It featured an old buggy, a Model T and an Edsel. An old rail fence enclosed half of this display and the other half was enclosed by a modern-looking fence. The dorm ' s Spring Formal dance was held in the dining room for the dorm. Later on, Walwood un- ited forces with Spindler Hall for an RHA Mixer in the Spring. Exchange dinners were also held with the women of Spindler. Walwood, in cooperation with Yandercook Hall, sponsored the highly successful Tepee Tango dance this Spring in the new University Center Ballroom. Sports occupied much of the spare time of Wal- wood men, entering football, basketball and bowl- ing teams in the university ' s intramural program. They held, in addition, their own table tennis, golf and cribbage tournaments. Walwood has as its new dorm directors this year Mr. and Mrs. John Coe. Mr. Coe is a full-time student in the graduate school at W ' estern. Mrs. Coe (Miss Michigan 1955) is a registered nurse and is studying part-time toward her B.S. degree.

Henry Hall Henry Hall for Men. 268 Henry Hall Henry Hall is the second of the dormitories in the University Center project to be completed. Dedicated this year it was named after Theodore Henry, psychology instructor and for years Head of the Department at Western. The Men of Henry did not waste any time in getting into the swing of things around campus. Homecoming time the men showed the spirit and enthusiasm they had for their one month old home by erecting a dorm display that captured second prize in the dorm division. 1 he display idea origin- ated by Tim Lewis consisted of a replica of the Western Bronco kicking the flu bug, which sym- bolized a flu ridden Washington U team. During the snow carnival their Kanga roo was talked about, but unfortunately not large enough. In addition to participating in other campus act- ivities the Men of Henry also had many exchange dinners, the usual Holiday dinners and an inter dorm dance. Mr. and Mrs. Fred Stevens served as dorm direc- tors for the 1957-8 school year. Officers of the Henry Hall Dorm Council are: Ronald Beemer, treasurer: Rollie Hopgood, vice-president; Bill Sweet, president; Daron Hairabedian, vice-president; and Thomas Wallis, secretary.

Today the goal you aimed for more than a decade ago is at hand. For most of you this is a fitting climax to years of study and hard work — graduation. Some of you may choose to continue your formal education, others will go into industry or the business and professional world. But wherever you go and whatever you do the experience you had, the knowledge and understanding you have acquired, and the principles you have lived by during the past four years, applied to your new endeavor, will make your life richer and fuller.
