Page 8 A tradition of Westminster throughout her history has been the quality of faculty members, the personal interest in the students by the faculty, and the men of national recog- nition that have served on the faculty. Evidence that the venerable custom is being continued today is the photo above which shows the Educational Policies Cont mittee discussing present day problems. Many of the professors 0n the faculty today were outstanding students on this same campus a few years ago. Several of the faculty have served on the staff for over twenty years and others have several years of teaching at W'estminster behind them. NOEL T.

In these last four years those veterans have risen through the aca- demic ranks and now stand as graduates, alumni of their Alma Mater. The Class of 1950, though made up of a majority of veterans, was not without those that came directly from secondary schools, and together this group has contributed greatly to the college during their campus life here. The mark of this year's Senior Class will not be easily be erased from the college, the faculty and the under-classmen. They con- tributed their share and more to the academic life at XVestminster. New Campus organiza- tions, social fraternities, and policies have all come into being during the period from 1946 to 1950. The Studentulilaeulty Senate, the Carleton Plan, the enlarged Student Council are all examples of innovations proposed and sponsored by the Class. So the ninety-ninth graduating class 01 Westminster College serves the academic ties that have bound them to the HBlue-Jay Spirit. They are older and wiser as Seniors than most sueh classes and yet from Swope Chapel to Priest Field and from the Columns t0 Reunion Hall, they will not be forgotten.

With them has come two new housing units and 21 house on 10th street, to expand fraternity row. On a comparison with other fraternities Page 23 on a national standing the Westminster seven can point with pride to an outstanding scholastic, athletic, and leadership record.

Since that time Alpha Eta Chapter has earned and upheld a place as a leader on the campus. Besides having K A's taking an active part in the various organiza- tions on the tthill, we have had many out- standing athletes both in intramurals and in Varisty sports. In basketball, Dave Silkner and Joe Frakes starred on the Varsity squad and in intramural swimming, John Patterson was an outstanding performer. Standing firm to our Southern tradition, the Confederate uniforms and hag were the order of the day for the Fulton Christmas Parade. During the rest of the year, South- ern hospitality was always to be found at the chapter house. Many improvements were made on the house during the year. New Chairs and tables replaced the old ones in the dining room and the HPine Room in the basement was redecorated. New evergreens were added to the lawn and some new furni- ture was purchased. The pledges planned and gave one of the highlights of the fall, the Pledge Formal. UK A XVinter Lodge was the theme of the annual Christmas Formal. Mother Simmons with her southern accent and spirit of hospi- tality was the able hostess of our social events. With the cooking of Bob Linnemeyer, our barbecues were events long to be remembered. Other social events of the year were the Open- houses which furnished dancing and enjoy- ment to the whole campus. And, of course, there were the Vic Parties at the chapter house between the other social functions.

The Westminster chapter, Missouri Beta, was founded in 1880, and was the fifty- seventh Chapter of the fraternity, which now numbers 110 chapters scattered throughout the United States and Canada. The Spring 1949 semester was closed in a blaze of glory as the Phi's won the Inter- fraternity Sing, and also had two members to graduate cum laude, Don Buzard and John Barker. The heights of this year's activities have been the Annual Pledge Formal at which the Phi Pledges and Actives feted their ladies, and the Christmas Formal, which all agreed was one of our most beautiful dances. Preparations were then being made for the Bowery, and, of course later on, the beautiful Spring Formal was held in the fraternity garden. In intramurals we have had a good year with the winning of two placques, golf and swimming. We were all pleased with the two new additions to the family this year. Our new housemother, Mrs. Nell Scott, comes from Mexico, Missouri, and since coming to Fulton has become one of the most popular people on the campus. NMomls personal charm and sincerity have indeed added a sophis- ticated touch to the fraternity. Our other acquisition was our new mascot, llFalstafffy who no doubt will be the biggest dog on the campus within months. He has already become a noted figure on campus by his excursions to the Chapel exercises.

Moving into a new $100,000 house, the S.A.E.'s have a lot to look forward to. Socially, Missouri Gamma has had a top year, beginning with the pledge formal, fol- lowed by the Christmas formal and the annual Monte Carlo Party. A dance was also held at the country Club in honor of its new house- mother, Mrs. Hazel Jenkins, with the John Cotter Trio entertaining. The climax of the social calendar came in the middle of May with the annual Gay Nineties review. As for school activities, S.A.E. is well represented with the President of the Student Body, Grand Marshall of Skulls of Seven, President of Authors Anonymous, President of S.C.A., President of the Music Club, President of Omicron Delta Kappa, the cap- tain 0f the tennis team, two letter men in track, and two lettermen in varsity basketball. Sigma Alpha Epsilon pledges twenty men in the fall, of which eighteen were ini- tiated. In January three more men were added to the new pledge class. Then to top off the fall semester, the Sig Alphs achieved the highest scholastic average on campus with an 85.40 rating.

The ultimate goal was achieved November 11, 1949, when the Delta Tau chapter of Sigma Chi was formally installed on this campus. The initiation ceremonies and ban- quet were attended by the national ofhcers 0f the Sigma Chi Fraternity as well as Sigma Chi Alumni and undergraduates from neigh- boring chapters. Since the early part of 1950, the house- mother has been Mrs. George Reilly; as there is no Sigma Chi alumnus living in Fulton, Mr. Charles F. Lamkin was chosen to be the chapter adviser. The first important social function given by the Sigs was the Christmas Formal. The chapter house was appropriately deco- rated in the Christmas spirit by the con- struction of a towering Santa Claus, ably drawn by Claude Curtice. At the annual Westminster homecoming dance Miss Nancy Foster, a Sigma Chi tpin girl' and the chapters, homecoming queen candidate, was crowned Queen. g; First row U. to M: NELSON, G.; HART, D.; KLEIN, J.; KRUGH, j.; PIERCE, H.; HOFFMAN, 5.; CURTICE, C.; CLEVE- LAND, WI; THOMAS, W.

A number of Sigs also made their appearance on the varsity basketball team, captain Bill Geitz for one. Another trophy acquired by the chapter was the Drosten Cup awarded for the year 1949. Sigma Chi, incidentally, was the first fraternity to receive this trophy. OFFICERS First semester: President-RYAN, J. Vice-President-HARTMAN, T. SecretaryHWATKINS, G. T reasurereHILGERT, R.

When problems arise concerning relations between administration of the college and the fraternities, the Pan-Hell council has proven itself capable of speedy meditation. In social affairs the Pan-Hell council supports worthy affairs not only for the school but also for other worthy organizations. Fraternities assume their place on the council through two representatives from each house. Officers of the council serve for one semester and are usually juniors and seniors. The Pan-Hell president, secretary, treasurer and one appointed representative constitute the executive committee which is an advisory group to the president of the council. Through Pan-Hell an exchange din- ner system was advised whereby fraternity men meet and dine with members of Other houses. One of the functions of Pan-Hell is to set up standards for fraternities which is pro- mulgated through a series of rules known as the Pan-Hell code. of Pan-Hell representatives administrate the A judicial body composed code which deals with rushing, pledging, and drinking.

Page 38 LOCAL ORGANIZATIONS t Tcplrfl, HIGHLAXDICRS; Topriglzl: KINGSMICX; Lnu-Nrighl: DIiLI'A ALPHA PHI An integral and important part of the composite social life on the campus revolves around the local social organizations. The active part and competitive spirit they dis- play in the extra-curricular activities and in the intra-mural program has established them on the campus. Although the names may have changed, basically the local organizations are some of the oldest and most honored institutions on the pages of Westminster's history. From Bridge to Decorating Local Group Has International Air Nineteen years ago, Delta Alpha Phi first appeared on the Westminster campus as a group of non-afhliated men living in private homes. Because all lived out in town, these men took the name of Town Club. Then in September, 1948, the club moved from town into Barrack No. 1. After a few brief encounters, everyone realized that the name was misleading and Changed it to the present Delta Alpha Phi. The main purpose was to establish a strong local Greek letter fraternity at Westminster. In sports our teams have been able to knock off some of the best, but were unable to main- tain steady hard-playing teams that it takes to win. The club is proud to be able to boast of having the two best swimmers in the school who went undefeated all year in their events. Lack of strong support kept the boys from doing as well as they could have. The tennis team surprised everyone, but lacked experi- ence which must be had to have a first place team. The softball team, although not hav- ing too good a record, did have their ego raised by knocking off some of the better teams. Another thing in which Delta Alpha Phi is proud is the fact that we have students from all over the United States, one from France, two from China. Claude Massot from France, and Paul and Sam Ing from China were made honorary members. Looking back all the boys can see many llgay social events that took place. The first one all will remember was the Hallow'een Party, with the spooky entrance and scream- ing girls, falling bodies, and once through the entrance, the loud laughs. Neither can you overlook the Christmas formal with St. Nick racing through the Sky. The spring formal, preceded by dinner, at the Fulton Country Club was a roaring success. Dancing on the veranda t0 dreamy music with warm May breezes made it even better.

Page 4 l The Highland Fling of Scots is Page 42 Brought to Westminsteris Campus On December 17, 1933, an organization came into being on XVestminster's campus, unique in its scope, durability, and spirit. This organization is the Highlanders. In the many years of its existence, in spite of com- petition, it has maintained and still maintains a position among the leading social organiza- tions on this campus. A spirit of independence of the individual members and of the organization plus inter- fraternity competition have been used by the elansmen to develop the Hsprit de corps of the organization. They are always striving for the best in everything, and always manage to achieve it in one way or another. Each man is an individual who thinks and acts as an individual. But adding all these individuals togetherenot caring about race of religious preference we have a work- ing organization. Monopolizing 0n the traditions of the Highland clans of Scotland, the Highlanders set an example for independent action and organization. It sets a standard of pride of existence to be remembered and revered after graduation in the alumni organizations now in existence in some of the large cities over the country. In this year the elansmen won the softball plaque. Under the able social leadership of Mrs. Mary Sue Hamlin, our house mother, the Highlanders gave a series of evening receptions for William W'oods College. Our Harvest Party and our Christmas Formal followed the best Highlander tradition. OFFICERS First semester: Laird-H. PETRIEQUIN Vice-Laird;N. CLARK Scriven-D. LATTNER TreasurereC.

Page 43 All the Kingsmen Put Page 44 Kingsmen on Top of the List The Kingsmen added another very suc- cessful year to their history. The year started in September with a well organized Rush Week that culminated in the pledging of ten men. The yearls social calendar, consisting in the main of hayrides, barndances, and numer- ous Vic-dances, was highlighted by the Christmas and Spring Formals. The calendar also featured several very successful country square dances that will long be remembered. The house ranked well in Homecoming Dec- orations, which consisted of an aeronautically minded Blue Jay bombing the stricken SS. Drury. Homecoming W'eekend and Spring Formal Weekend were both occasions for well-attended alumni meetings. Annual oth- cers were elected during the May meeting. The organization made a good showing in intramural athletics, especially in track and bowling. The basketball team 'as con' siderably better than statistics would have one to believe. Undoubtly due to a rigid study hall system instituted at the beginning of the year, a steady rise of the House scholastic average was maintained, particularly throughout the sec- ond semester. The organization was well represented in all extra-curricular activities, particularly in the Glee Club, Sociology Club, and on the Debate Squad. Improvements made on the physical plant included the complete redecoration and reno- vation of the two lounges and of the dining room. The Kingsmen were fortunate in securing the services of Mrs. E. G. Davidson as house- mother. Under the able leadership of the President, 21 general erystalization of aims and policy was achieved, enehaneing the prospects of a successful future.

The Phi Gams have Mrs. Marguerite Harris as their housemother. Mrs. Harris, who has lived in Fulton, moved in when their house was completed in March. At the far end of town, Mom Reiley has joined the Sigma Chiis this year as house- mother. She is well known on the campus, having been with the Phi Delts for many years.

Back at the K.A. house again this year is Mrs. Montie Simmons, who has been with the K.A.,s for many years. Mom is known throughout Fulton for her Southern hospi- tality. The Beta's are fortunate to have back with them Mrs. Mode Payne, who has been with them since their house was rebuilt. Mrs. Margaret Lindstrom is tiMom for the boys at the Delt house again. Mom can often be seen out in the yard with Duchess, the mascot. Page 46 QUEENS Homecoming Dance is the big social event of the year and is looked forward to by all XVestminster men. Highlighting this brilliant spectacle, the selection of the annual Homecoming Queen is made. The picture above is that Of the Queen and her attendants. These lovely women are symbolic to all iVest- minster men. On February 11, Miss Nancy Foster, a candidate of Sigma Chi, was crowned TTHome- coming Queen for 1050 by Charles Lohr, President of the HVV Club. The week-end 0f reunions reached it apex at the Homecom- ing Dance at which Queen Nancy was crowned.

The purpose is to assemble college men in the fellowship of the Scout Oath and Law, to develop friendship and promote service to humanity. It renders service in four major fields: to the student body and faculty: to youth and community; to the members of the fraternity; and t0 the nation as participating citizens. Being a service fraternity, Alpha Phi Omega crosses all lines of honorary, social and professional fraternities, and members of Other campus organizations may also be active in this fraternity. Alpha Phi Omega is not in competition with any other campus group but, on the contrary, seeks the cooperation of other organizations to broaden the scope of service. Here at Westminster the members have made an effort to tender as much service during the past year as possible, such as sell- ing cokes at school functions, serving coffee on Dad's Day, and raising the flag in front of the Administration Building each day. Next year they look forward with great anticipation to a better and more active year. With the help of new members and the cooperation of the student body it is hoped to accomplish this task.

The national fraternity has 180 chapters and serves as a means of recognizing outstanding participation in dramatics, fmancial organiza- tion and staging by undergraduates in the various colleges where the fraternity is located. The cast now has nine active members on the campus. They are: Bob Lowary, Page 53 Harry Kluttz, Carrick White, Nat McLean, Russell Bandy, George Foster, John Bullock, Jim Moore, and Mr. Robert Randall of the William Wroods faculty. Cooperation with the Jabberwocky SO- ciety, local dramatic Club, has been the para- mount work of the cast this year. Offlcers for 1949-50 were: Russell Bandy, President; and Jim Moore, Vice-President. Authors Anon Reveal New Tempers' .

Council, the Student Chapel Committee serves to assist in obtaining chapel speakers and direct- ing the many various religious activities of the student body. Working in conjunction with the Faculty Chapel Committee, the student committee planned the very successful Spiritual Emphasis Week in February. This committee also serves as the World Student Service Fund Committee which raises funds to assist foreign students in their education in their homelands. Another serv- ice this committee renders is the caring for the foreign students on our own campus. In working as the Campus Foreign Student Committee, this group directed the Foreign Student Benefit Drive in March and assisted in the other fund raising events for this cause during the year. Dr. John A. Gates served as the Faculty representative and Allen Oakley was the student chairman.

Major events in the intercollegiate competition were the Midwest Speech Tournament at Kirksville, the State Tournament, held at VVarrensburg, and the Pi Kappa Delta Provincial Tourna- ment, held at Normal, Illinois. Other major events were held at William Jewell, VVashing- ton U., St. Louis U., Culver-Stockton, Prin- cipia, Central, Bradley, and Lincoln U. Bob Lowary took first place in the Senior Oratorical Contest at the State Tournament. Lowary became eligible for the National Oratorical Contest held at Northwestern University in April. The debate teams of Schmidt and Lowary, Wilson and Craig all received Superior ratings at both the State and Provincial meets as did Dan Craig in Extemporaneous Speaking. At the Eve-state regional tournament at Normal, Illinois, Westminster was the only school to receive two hrst ratings of Superior in debate, the same teams that rated superior in the state being so rated at Normal.

Formerly consisting of one representative and the four officers, the council was altered to include the presidents of the social organizations, which made the council not only a stronger but more efficient body. To further a closer relationship with the faculty, a committee of the council, the Stu- dent Faculty Senate. which included five student representatives met monthly with four faculty members at President Hall's home, to discuss campus problems and to offer possible solutions. Page 71 Through the council's efforts Westminster became a member of the National Student Association, a nation wide student better- ment program. Also a new health program was presented to the student body but no final action has been taken as yet. A Foreign Student Benefit Dance was presented in cooperation with O. D. K.

Membership in the Society is conferred upon those members of the student body who have contributed a degree of service and ability to their publication and to the college. Tau Sigma Alpha, in cooperation with the Columns and the Blue Jay, sponsored the annual spring banquet at the Fulton country club, where the various publications honors for 1950 were presented. An outstanding personage in the journalism field was also present for the major address.

Page 72 Juniors Attend Washington Semester WARREN MOSER, JACK RYAN, MARVIN YOUNG, ROGER SCHRADER VSITING with the top diplomats, politicians and congressmen is not the primary purpose of Washington Semester but it is one of the events that transpires. Each year since 1946 Westminster men have been attending Amer- ican University for one semester and keeping an ear to the ground on the workings of government. It is all part of a program that operating under the auspices of the American Univer- sity includes Allegheny College, Hiram Col- lege, Oberlin College, College of VVOOStEFy Hamline University and Westminster. The students during their residence at the nation's capital carry three courses in their major held and one seminar course in which all the students from various colleges participate. All credits are counted as Westminster Col- lege credits. It is the seminar course that brings the students into the direct contact with the Page 73 actual working of government institutions. During the research the students will sit in on Congressional committee hearings, listen to debate on important bills and interview men of top government positions. This year Marvin Young continued his work with the UColumns and reported on the Washington front. It was thus reported that one of the greatest assets of Westminster men studying there was Alumnus Harry Vaughn. Students need not be majors in govern- ment or the social sciences in order to be chosen for the program. Its purpose is to give selected students who have had the pre- requisite work an opportunity to take ad- vanced courses in the social sciences while being brought into contact with the practical source of government institutions.

They are: Van Loehr, Ken Kaufman, Jim Moore, Bill Tate, Overton Harris, Howie Whiteway, Art Baue and Paul Raidt. The national publication determines its listings not by popularity or scholastic aver- age alone, but on a composite evaluation based on the students service to the school, his leadership and practical qualities, his contribution to extracurricular activities and his scholastic achievement. The Westminster students selected this year are well chosen as their record will show: Van Loehr climaxed his four years of study and college service by serving as President of the Student Body. Ken Kauf- man and his accomplishments are well known to most of the students, i.e., Editor of the Columns, President of ODK, a council rep- resentative and member of Glee Club. Jim Moore could always be found to be an active member of some extra activity. Best re- Pagt 75 membered are his days with the drama group, as Business Manager of Columns and for his Glee Club warbling. Bill Tate found consistency and variety as a means of service to the college and ticket to recognition. Bill also was active in his fraternity and the Glee Club. Overton Harris with his spider-like frame was found in every active movement . . . . Washington Semester, Editor of the Columns, President of Glee Club and a man with a duo-major with a high scholastic average. Howie Whiteway was the golfingest man on the campus and thanks to him West- minster for years has been undisputed in many matches. Howie also had time for the Blue Jay, ODK and the other activities besides Vice-President of the Student Body. Art Baue will long be remembered for that 99 average and that is WestminsterYs highest scholastic standing. Paul Raidt, the tennis star throughout his four years, KA No. 1, President of the UW Club is one of the best all-around students. Paul was starring in an intra-mural basketball game when the above photo was taken. HOW We Played the Game Page 76 ATHLETICS Athletics were a dominant feature in col- lege life at Westminster this year. The Basketball team provided tense moments by winning most of its games in the Hilltop Gym. The track squad and baseball team have had better seasons. Veteran conference champs and lettermen again made varsity golf and tennis successful. The intramural race was very close in each sport and final standings. Page 77 Blue Jays Highlight Season With COACH BARROW WHITEHEAD Improved lettermen, talented freshmen, and hustle most strongly characterized the Blue Jays surprising'reversal of form over last season. Westminster improved from a 5-14 record in ,48349 to a very respectful In the M. C. A. U. conference competition the Jays 6-6 record 12-9 mark this year. put them into a three way tie for third place with Missouri Valley and Drury. Coach Kimbrell again stressed his ball control and different plays to defeat usually much taller foes. The squad got off to a Hying start in Winning six of the hrst seven games and having a very good defensive record. With the conference play beginning, the team became spasmodic. Playing Mis- souri Valley at Marshall the Westminster five lost 48-42 but two games later easily took a 53-69 Victory over the same team in PFEIFLER HILGERT WORLEY Fulton. Near the seasons close came the upset victory of Culver-Stockton 0n the home Hoor. Then after two days rest came the as- tounding, unprecedented 53-54 overtime upset victory of a Washington University team from St. Louis that only a few months before had defeated the Jays by 27 points. The Blue Jay rallied time and again to stay ahead of the Bears throughout most of the game and had the punch to win. In the closing seconds of the regulation play Big Dave Silkiner tied the game and coolly dropped another goal in the extra inning to provide the margin. It was a thrill packed season for the Blue Jay fans. Four games went into overtime periods and several were decided by one and two points. Page 78 1 Four Overtimes and Major Upsets GEITZ COONEY Two of the defeats suffered by the Jays on the home court were by small margin. The Central Eagles, conference champions, had to stage a rally in the closing seconds of the game to nose out Westminster by two points 52-50. A long, one handed shot, just before the horn sounded to end the game, decided the contest. Drury College won the annual homecom- ing game here by edging the Jays, 36-35. It was a nip and tuck game throughout the forty minutes of play. With thirty seconds left to play in the game the Blue Jays luck ran out. On three successive shots the ball dropped into the hoop and bounced out. The other game lost on the home Hoor was an overtime game with the State College from Cape Girardeau. In this hard fought Page 79 COACH KIMBRELL FIENE FRAKES game the Jays ran out of steam in the extra ten minutes. The lone senior 0n the team and All- Conference forward, Joe Frakes, starred with his defensive play and proved to be key man in the Kimbrell system. Captain Bill Geitz provided much of the scoring power as the teams leading point maker with 270 points for the season. Bill was honored by being given a honorable mention on the All- Conference team. A remarkable shooting percentage of .438 was had by center Dave Silkiner while being the big rebound factor. Big and swift Jack Cooney added much fire to the play and Ray Hilgret handled his tough defensive jobs with note. Remarkable John PfeiHer and other conscientious men on the squad helped to spark the club in its successful campaign.

Opening day was April 15 with a home game with Concordia in Fulton. The team got off to a great start in winning this game and took the first three out of four games. This winning way continued to pre- vail for the remainder of the season. The great improvement in the team hit- ting, especially in comparison with the past three seasons, is undoubtedly the biggest fac- tor in accounting for the victories. Ray Hils gret filled the Clean-up spot in the batting order with his big war club. Ray's power blows have been a terror to opposing teams for the past two seasons. Freshman, Ken Whitehead, also showed great power and con- sistency in the batter's box. Ken had his biggest day against Shurtleff College on the home field by tapping two home runs and having a perfect day. Consistent hitters were also found in O'Rourke and Rector as well as other veteran players. Page 81 The team defense was tight and fast in its play. Playing for his fourth straight year at. the hot corner, Henry Straub ended his bril- liant career on Blue Jay teams with his usual superb and unbelievable plays. Henry also added plenty of the flre which is essential to a winning club. Another veteran senior, Al Stewart, capably provided a target at first. Two more seniors roamed the outlying areas with Rea and Shotwell in left and right respec- tively. Ned Rector led a decent mound crew which got support from Stan Brenner and Harry Farley. Rector showed a great improvement over last year and had plenty on the ball to win two of the first three games on the Jay's win column. The early spring was cold and hard for pitchers to get into form. Brenner arrived in time to help and Farley returned his senior year after being inactive the past season. Gay and Comer took turns behind the plate and turned in notable jobs. Golf and Tennis Teams Win Respect CHARLSOX, WHITEWAY, FORD, HARTWIGSEN, BRCDNIAK Westminster link men came through the year's campaign with a characteristic display of excellent golf. The team was somewhat handicapped after winning the M. C. A. U. for the past three years by the lack of return- ing Iettermen. The team was led by a star for the past three seasons and medalist for this year's campaign, Howard Whiteway. The remain- ing spots on the team were filled by men who graduated from intramural competition. Freshman Jim Ford played as the number two man, Dave Charlson played as number three, Ted Brudniak played and Freshman Joel Chetlain played number five. In the early dual meets the team had diffi- culty in winning although H. Whiteway was medalist in all of these meets which included one with Missouri University and VVashing- ton University. Even in these meets White- way was consistently shooting around 77 with Ford shooting a couple of strokes more. As the time for the conference matches drew near a considerable improvement was shown.

Coach Brooke Sloss rounded his squad with Capt. John Pfeifier capably playing the number three position and the veteran intramural star, Henry C. Straub, playing his senior year as the number four man. Two other graduates of intramural play, Freshman Bill McCue and Ted Wet- terau alternated as the fifth man. In the M. C. A. U. conference p1ay,a great improvement in the squads from Drury and Missouri Valley made the competition ex- tremely close. The cold spring did not help the squad to get into the best condition and the team play was not as sharp in the early dual meets, espe- cially against Washington and Missouri Uni- versities. The warm weather during the first week in May heated the team up considerably and by the time for the conference play the men were in top form. Page 82 First raw: WHITEWAY, STEWART, LOHR, BROWN, CROSS Second row: SCHARLI, BLUM, ROWE, STRAUB Third row: WETTERAU, PFEIFLER, KELLY, SILKINER, HILGRICT, RECTOR The WYestminster WV Club, the college Ietterman's club, had an active year under the leadership of President Chuck Lohr. The high point of the year was the organization and successful presentation of the annual Homecoming celebrations on February 11. The club also donated the fine public address system to the college which was installed in the Gym and was used this year for basketball games, dances, and other activities. Field events proved to be the most effec- tive point-getting field for the year's chin- dads? The consistent showing by veteran stars, Chuck Lohr, Finley, Cross, Duncan, and Blum, in their various fleld events totaled the greater number of places. In the track events points were hard to find as the unusually cold spring hindered early conditioning. A few more men running in these events would have also aided the team greatly. The best show- ing was in the middle distance events which were run by Hancock and Hagemann. First row: REINKE, BISBEE, ALLOWAY, HAGEMANN, VVALLACE, CROSS, BLUM, DUNCAN Second row: ROLLERT, SHliLMUTT, FRIEBURGER, HANCOCK, SILKINER, FINLEY, COLLINS, SCHALCHLIN, COACH KIMBRELL Sigma Chi Rules Dyadls Day Events Climaxing the Dad's Day events, the father-son banquet in the Westminster gymnasium was attended by more than four hundred fathers and sons. Speeches were made by a father of a student in each of the four classes at Westminster. Awards were given to the father traveling the fartherest and to the social organiza- tion which won the Dad's Day athletic even ts. The athletic contests were arranged in this way. Each organization was matched with another of about equal strength in softball, tennis, and golf. If an organization won all three of their events, they would win the Dad's Day trophy. If more than one organization held that day would be the deciding factor between them. Sigma Chi was the only organization to win all three of their events. Running close were Delta Tau Delta, Delta Alpha Phi, Beta Theta Pi, Highlanders, and Kappa Alpha, winning two events.

Jim Bisbee in the distances and Bob Burton in the hurdles made the differ- ence for the Winning Beta's. The High- landers, led by Bill McCall in sprints, took second place by having men placing in almost every event. Dave Silkiner stood out in fleld events to lead Kappa Alpha to a third place. Delta Tau Delta won the 880 relay to wind up the meet and give the Delts fourth place. Beta Theta Pi went undefeated in tennis competition this year to cop another plaque. The race was close all the way with Sigma Alpha Epsilon taking second place and Phi Delta Theta taking third. The program was set up entirely upon doubles this year and as a result there were no individual stand- outs. The Beta's hrst team of Clark Kraft and Hank Straub and the SAE'S flrst team of Ted Wetterau and Bill Bowers were the most prominent combinations of the race.

With two of the top bowlers in the school, Arnie Bryson and Art Corn, leading them, Kappa Alpha went undefeated for the season. Phi Gamma Delta, last year's winner, was defeated this year by the KAYs. Delta Alpha Phi, and Frank Taylor was the out- standing bowler for them. Other leading bowlers were Jack ttMonk Bullock of Phi Delta Theta, ttHank Straub of Beta Theta Pi, and Howard VVhiteway of Delta Tau Delta. Page 89 Left to right: BELICH, HILGERT, REA HANDBALL With another great team, Sigma Chi went undefeated in intramural handball to repeat as Hchamps. Under the handball setup, it is necessary to take two out of three matches against each team in order to win. With two of the best swatters in school in Ray Hilgert and Joe Belich, Sigma Chi had little trouble winning. With Bob Schroeder Delta Tau Delta was barely nosed into second place. Other leading hand ballers in school were Kappa Alphats Paul Raidt and Sigma Alpha Epsilonts Jim Ford.

Kneeling, left to right: HAMILTON, TANSBERGER, CHRISTIAN, and NELSON Behind the effective pitching of Don Taylor, the Highlanders succeeded in winning the 1949-50 softball championship. Placing second were the Sigma Chils with a seven- and-two record. A Close third was Delta Tau Delta with a six-and-three record. Don Taylor, the Highlanders' hurling ace, was the intramural softball stand-out. Backed by a mediocre team, he won almost all of the games single-handed. Other outstanding players this year were Ray Hilgert and Paul Rea, Sigma Chi; and Dave McCallum, Delta Tau Delta. INTRAMURAL VOLLEYBALL Volleyball in 1949-50 will be a very close race, but will decide only the runner-up in intramurals as Beta Theta Pi has Cinched the Delta Tau Delta and Kappa Alpha, both with strong volleyball teams, will be vying for second all-intramural championship. place in the 1949-50 intramurals through volleyball. Sigma Chi and the 1948-49 winner, Beta Theta Pi, will have excellent teams also, and could ruin the second place hopes of either Kappa Alpha or Delta Tau Delta. Beta Theta Pi will not be as strong this year as last year, however, because of the loss of several key Hspikers. Page 90 CLASS OF 1951 When the Class of 1951 entered West- minster it was slated for fame. It was to be the Centennial Class. History, Tradition and general opinion would naturally demand t that the class in such an unique position be a Class of outstanding qualities. The Juniors are now on the downhill side of the z trip but they are continually picking up h steam and honors as they go along the college road. They could graduate without a fourth year to add achievements and still present an envious record.

There are 16 Westminster men and their wives living on the field this year, with 21 total of six children, and an unlimited number of dogs. Most of the ttFieId girls work in the library or the school offices although some are employed in offices in town. Several have a full time job at home, just being a home- maker.

The staff needs and is entitled to personal service which concentrates on the details of the staffs diHicult and urgent task of getting out its yearbook. Not too SMALL On the other hand, the printer of your annual ought to have facilities large enough and com- plete enough and efficient enough to produce a fine piece of printing and binding eco- nomically. Also, he ought to have sufficient reserve power to breeze in at the finish in spite of unforeseen emergencies. Mid-Smre PRINTING CQMPANY Craftsmanship in Printing and Binding JEFFERSON CITY, MISSOURI CULLEGE YEARBOQK ?rmtmg AT ms BEST Just Rigbt! After thirty-flve years of col- lege annual specialization, it is obvious that our personnel and equipment must be ideal for this field of publishing. The equipment of our plant, in size and nature, is tailor-made for yearbook production. Ty- pography, presswork and bind- ing are produced in one plant. But more important is the specialized know-how of an in- terested pemonnel.

That is our kind of organiza- tion.
