Girls' Drum and Bugle'Corps. The group appeared at all football games played on the home field and also accompanled the University Band to Washburn College for the annual Thanksgiving Day game. The girls created pep at several basketball games besides appearing in the Homecoming Day parade as shown here. Miss Loneta Brown is the drum major. H O'Z0lJ'0,'ZC! 45506155711 H It is probably not peculiar that the theme of the 1934 Homecoming Day exercises, Forward Shockers, should be synonymous with the policies and plans of the athletic department. The athletic policy committee of the Uni- versity was active all year in forwarding the aims of the department. The committee consisted of Dr. John Rydjord, chairman, Dean Frank A. Neff, Dr. Eldor Marten, Dean Leslie B. Sipple, Dr. Lambertus Hek- huis and Vane Smith. Old King Football, with Athletic Director Albert J. Gebert steering his destinies, opened the 1934-35 school year. With an at- tractive schedule lined up, including inter- sectional games with Gonzaga University of Spokane, Wash., and South Dakota State College of Brookings, the Shockers were forced to give up the Central Conference crown, which they had Worn for two years in a. row, because of sharp competition close to home, but made such an impressive rec- ord against the huskies from out West and up North that Coach Gebert has de- cided to continue bringing in teams from far away and at the same time send his Yellow and Black machine on raids across country. Coach Gebert has declared himself in favor of building the entire athletic depart- ment to a point where it will be wholesomely attractive to high school athletes who wish to go to college, and at the same time he is keeping the department in line with the ex- panded and improved scholastic policies of the school. Basketball, missing stride for a year, jumped back into position as the season progressed this year. Coach Lindsey W. Austin, a Shocker alumnus, proved that he still had the spirit of his alma mater at heart by working magnificently on what promised to be a poor basketball team, and wrought from his hard-working squad the surprise team of the Central Conference. The schedule this year included games with the Oklahoma Agricultural and Me- chanical College, a member of the Missouri Valley Intercollegiate Conference, and Kan- sas State College, a member of the Big Six Conference. The Kansas State team was whipped soundly in Wichita by the Shockers in the only game between the two teams, but Wichita lost to the Oklahomans. An annual trip into Old Mexico was part of the program, and the department offers Page Ten . cqffifataz 16129 01201 it as one of its most enjoyable and educa- tional features. Games were played in Mon- terrey and Mexico City, with Tampico as an alternate. Team members were so enthu- siastic about the trip upon their return, and so much favorable comment was received from the Mexican cities concerning the in- vasion of the Shockers that the department will, beyond doubt, continue to send an aggregation to the Southland annually. In addition to the varsity team, the de- partment has made every effort to keep a large number of other boys interested in basketball. Most prominent of the teams outside the varsity was the freshman aggre- gation, which won the city championship and went into the final rounds of the state tournament. Under Acting Coach Robert Red Shadoan, the frosh had a busy season as members of the city league. Track started this year from much the same position that basketball did a few months earlier, or, in the vernacular of the trackman, from scratch. With a Wealth of talent in a few events, and with Coach Aus- tin's promise to put forth the same tireless effort that marked his basketball instruc- tion, the season was made into more of a success than seemed probable. The large meets attended were the Kan- sas University Relays, the Drake University It was under the lead- ership of these three gentlemen that the men of the University carried on their ath- letic activities during the year. Robert Sha- doan was the assistant football coach as well as an instructor in physical education. Al- bert J. Gebert again directed the athletic department and was head football coach. Lindsey W. Austin, di- rector of physical ed- ucation, was the bas- ketball and track coach. Page Eleven Relays, and the Central Conference meet held at Pittsburg. In addition, dual meets were scheduled with Pittsburg Teachers, Emporia Teachers and Fort Hays State. A triangular meet with Southwestern College and Friends University was a Shocker vic- tory. Lesser activities of the department brought together several intramural teams in track and field. In addition the gym classse were given every encouragement to try to attain a proficiency in some sport. In the category of intramural sports, spe- cial mention is due the president of the Uni- versity. In Dr. W. M. Jardine the intra- mural sports program has found an enthu- siastic patron. Shortly after his coming to the school last year, Dr. Jardine announced his policy of getting every student outdoors in order to indulge in some recreation. Al- ready tangible results of the announcement can be seen. Last spring new bermuda grass fields were grown on the campus for the use of athletic teams. This constitutes only a start, however, as Dr. Jardine has announced that every convenient and avail- able spot will be sodded in preparation for a larger intramural program. An effort is being made by Athletic Di- rector Gebert and his co-workers to estab- lish intramural football in coming years. I, I N qjoofgalf Kmfg 64 cgfzafzgfs Continued expansion was the varsity key- note of the 1934 Shocker football season. Di- rector of Athletics and Head Football Coach Albert J. Gebert continued to turn the foot- ball eye of the institution upward and brought to Wichita two strong intersectional opponents-Gonzaga University and South Dakota State College. It was a thrilling season for the Wheat- shockers. Before the first game, Coach Geb- ert predicted from his downtown office at the Watson Sporting Goods Co., that his squad would fail in its bid for its third straight Central Conference championship. He was right, for the Shockers relinquished the crown to Fort Hays State College. Throughout the year, the athletic depart- ment maintained a downtown office at Wat- son's. Two more features marked the campaign. First, the largest squad in the history of the school turned out for the opening week of practice, and, second, six of the nine games were played on fields either uncomfortably wet or downright muddy. Friends University, old rivals within the city, provided first opposition of the season. They were trampled, 45 to O, in what has been announced as their last game with the Shockers. The following week, although out- v Caught in action on the practice field were these nine huskies of the 1934 edition of Coach Al Gebert's football parade.

The next contest saw the opening of the Central Conference season for the Shockers against Emporia Teachers at Emporia. The Wichitans settled down in the last quarter and sewed up a 19-6 victory. Coach Geb- ert's worst fears were realized on October 17 when the Fort Hays State College Tigers won a. 12-7 victory and started the Shocker demise. To Pittsburg for the Gorilla's Home- coming Day the Shockers went next. A rain stopped the running attack of both teams as the field became a viritual lake. Peculiarly enough, both machines could pass, and did. Score, 12 to 7 for the Gorillas. Page Thirteen Next came Shocker Homecoming Day with Southwestern as opponents in a. re- newal of an old feud. On a perfect day Wichita passed and ran to a. brilliant 25-0 triumph before a. large crowd of fans in- cluding old grads. Gonzaga University went back West with a lesson in mudding after the Shockers had tied them up with a 0-0 score. South Dakota State brought a great team and the nation's leading scorer, but several Shockers took advantage of their own and South Dakota's passing attack to win the ball game, 19 to 0. Thanksgiving Day several score of faith- ful Shockers moved to Topeka, saw not only a snowstorm, but also a 6-0 Washburn vic- tory in the year's final game. if 4 ' SHOCKIN' SUSIES: Members oi' the Shorkin' Susies include rleft to right!

NW cifloagilz f quasi Shocker pep and good will are personified in the Shockin' Susies, the girls' pep club. The group has as its purpose the promoting and leading of organized yelling. Formerly there existed two organizations known as the Shockin' Susies and the Yell- a-Lot club. Today these have united their efforts in the non-partisan pep club known as Shockin' Susies. The group was this year under the direction of Miss Ruth Sharp. Representatives from each sorority and the barb group act as captains in the club. The captains this year were Miss Kathryn Tennant, Miss Lela .Jean Chambers, Miss Peggy Southworth, Miss Jeannette Stearns, Miss Armilda Salmans and Mina Jean Gillespie. ugfs 801111 In the black and gold uniforms, the Girls' Drum and Bugle Corps formed a colorful unit as it appeared before the public with the band this year. The organization was organized two years ago under the direction of Walter Duerksen, director of the band. Miss Loneta Brown has acted as drum major since its organization. The corps added much color to all football games on the Wichita field, appearing in special formations and drills. The group also accompanied the band to the Thanksgiving Day game with Washburn College at Topeka. Following a successful season, the Drum and Bugle Corps culminated its year's activi- ties in a victory dinner. Page Fmcrteen Ulla 572073 .qgcvza 5 It is not just a personal opinion that the intramural sports program was this year a bigger success than every it is a fact. The activity was guided by Men's Physical Edu- cation Director Lindsey W. Austin. The autumn baseball league opened the intramural year with the Phi Upsilon Sigma tossers beating the Barb team in the climax battle. One of the most successful of the intramural sports was basketball. Webster fraternity won the regular league champion- ship over eight competitors, and the Barbs won the post-season tournament champion- ship after finishing last in the league. The only intramural football game was between Webster and Alpha Gamma Gamma fraternities for the famous Beer Kegg the Gammas romped to victory. The Barbs placed a well-balanced team in the wrest- ling tournament to win easily. Boxing went to Webster fraternity men after a spirited fight with Pi Alpha Pi. Intramural track netted the Barbs another handsome trophy and an overwhelming win. Their nearest competitors were the Colored All-Stars. Men of Webster ran rough-shod over op- ponents to the volleyball finals, where they again trimmed the Barbs to win. Varsity golf and tennis claimed unusual attention this year with the Central Con- ference meets being held in Wichita late in the school year. The varsity track team par- ticipated in the Drake and Kansas Relays besides meeting Emporia, Pittsburg, Fort Hays, Friends and Southwestern. Page Fifteen I I These five members of the Shocker basket- ball team this year in- clude Bill Powell, Tom Kornhaus, Pike Gaw- throp, Albert Cross and Gerhardt Eiker- mann. They had much to do with bringing Wichita a victory over every Central Confer- ence foe. Jack Rath- bone, another reg- ular, is not pictured. 09 Although the Shocker basketball team, under the leadership of Coach Lindsey Aus- tin, did not win the Central Conference title this year, there was not a league team that could do more than break even with the Wichitans. Returning to active competition after a year's rest, the Shockers lost once and won once in their two-game series with each con- ference team. Strong non-conference teams gained a percentage of wins over the Shock- ers in the early part of the season while the locals were still searching for a winning combination. Wichita's curtain-raiser was a defeat. The Oklahoma Aggies rang up a 29 to 22 vic- azgsfgaff tory. But W. U. soon met and defeated a Missouri Valley team-the Washburn cag- ers. The score was 33 to 22. Later in the season, however, the Topekans defeated the Shockers, 32 to 31, as Tom Kornhaus scored 11 points. In two attempts to beat Phillips Univer- sity the Wichitans failed by scores of 32 to 22 and 30 to 18. A feather in the locals' cap was the defeat of Kansas State, a Big Six contender, by the large score of 50 to 34. Page Sixteen ' Shocker basketball fol- lowers this year had an opportunity to see just a little bit of ev- erything on the hard- wood floor. Upsets were on the program and these six men saw plenty of action. They are William Volkman, Thomas Hall, Art No- ble, Leroy Neelly, Earl Vore and Kermit Woodman. Bang Qin An early season tournament at Southwest- ern College in Winfield did not bring any honors to Wichita as Coach Austin's men lost in their fourth game - an overtime affair. A 52-46 loss to the Oklahoma University team was the only other non-conference game played. This brought another over- time period. Southwestern won the first conference game here, 44 to 28, but revenge was gained later at Winfield when the Shockers Won, Page Seventeen 30 to 27. A last-minute rush allowed the Shockers to whip Emporia, 27 to 25, before losing later, 43 to 18. After losing to Pitts- burg here, Wichita handed the leading Goril- las a beating near the close of the season. A thrilling 24-23 triumph over Fort Hays here was offset when the Shockers went west and lost 39 to 25. The annual trip to Mexico brought three losses and three victories. Members of the varsity were Leroy Neelly, Pike Gawthrop, Tommy Hall, Kermit Wood- man, Bill Powell, Tom Kornhaus, Art Noble, Jack Rathbone, Earl Vore, Al Cross, Bill Volkman, Gerhardt Eikermann, Dick Price, George Winters, Calvin Stewart and Roland Skinner. fpgyaiaa. I Education OHZEI2 Each year the women's physical education department claims a little more attention of the students and this year certainly has been no exception. Women of the athletic depart- ment found it almost difficult to be familiar with the schedule of events so extensive was the activity. Miss Gladys Taggart heads the depart- ment and is assisted by Miss Evelyn Hinton. Two years of physical education as well as a semester of hygiene and a semester of fundamentals are required of all women in the University. Classes offered include clog- ging, both beginning and advanced, folk dancing and natural dancing, tumbling, golf, tennis, sports including basketball, volley ball and baseball, archery and swimming. Instruction is also given in such subjects as recreational leadership, sports technique, and girl scout leadership. One of the outstanding sport events of the year was the Kemper rifle meet, won for the fifth time in six years by the representatives of the University of Wichita. Miss Hinton accompanied Miss Ila Banta, captain, Re- becca Bowdish, Jean Haire, Jane Jukes and Thelma Huey to the meet which was held at the Kemper Military Academy in Missouri. The team's winning score this year was 496 out of a possible 500. Cleveland High School was runner-up in this event. Realizing the need for more women offi- cials, the department sponsored an attempt to encourage women to develop an interest in this type of activity, particularly in con- nection with field hockey and basketball. During the inter-sorority basketball tourna- ment fourteen women were given referees' and umpires' tests and ratings. Orchesis, natural dancing club with mem- bership from the more advanced students, was again well represented in activities this year with Miss Mary Lou Ambrose acting as president. The club meets once a week at which time the members create their own dance numbers, representing various inter- pretations. As a climax, the organization presented its third annual spring recital, featuring a program originated entirely by members of the club. A comparatively new sport, growingrap- idly in popularity, is fencing. A fencing club has been chartered by the facultyg it is com- posed of interested students both men and women. The group held a match with the members of the University of Kansas fenc- ing club in April. The array of activities offered by the de- partment has been increasing steadily, with prospects for the coming year even brighter.

Rez-order REBECCA BONVDISH . . . . . Manager With the completion of activities in the Women's Athletic Association for the school year 1934-35 it was discovered that 43 per cent of the women of the University partici- pated in some form of activity offered by the association, an increase of 12 per cent over last year's number. This increase is attributed to the growing interest shown in inter-sorority competition, which has been stressed. During the first semester tournaments were scheduled in ring tennis, won by Pi Kappa Psi, and in volleyball, won by Delta Omega. In the second semester there was a basketball tournament, won by Pi Kappa Psi, swim- ming, won by the Vandals, freshman-junior barb team, and rifle, won by the Vikings, sophomore-senior barb team. Late in the spring, tournaments in tennis, golf, and archery were held for the sorority and barb groups. A beginners and a mixed doubles tennis tournament was staged in May. A new silver plaque, provided by the school, was awarded to the group scoring Page Nineteen the most points. There were inter-class matches in hockey, volleyball, and baseball. The winner of these events received a smaller plaque. The Association sent two delegates, Miss Jean Van Arsdale and Miss Belva Webb, with Miss Gladys Taggart, director of the women's physical education department, to the convention of the Southwest Section of the N. A. A. F., held at Kansas State Teach- ers College at Emporia in February. Thirty- five schools from eight states were repre- sented there. The Kansas division of W. A. A. accepted the invitation of Miss Van Arsdale, president of the Wichita associa- tion, to come here for its annual convention next year. In addition to the sports already men- tioned, points toward W.A.A. awards are also given for participation in archery, fenc- ing, rifle, and horseback riding, interest in the latter being fostered by a newly organ- ized club called Pegasus. One of the high spots of the season was the bi-annual play day for the city high school girls from North, East, Cathedral and Mount Carmel high schools. Eighty girls took part in this all-day affair.

Each year a larger percentage of the incoming freshman class enrolls in military science, and fewer upperclassmen drop out. The unit this year had an enrollment of about two hundred and eighty men, and preparations have been made to accommodate a larger number in 1936. The mission of the R. O. T. C. as outlined by the United States government is to awaken in the student an appreciation of the obligations of citizenship, to prepare him to discharge his duties as a citizen, and to qualify him as a military leader. It was again this year capably carried out by Major George W. Price and Captain Cecil L. Rut- ledge, the regular army officers stationed at the University. They were efficiently assist- ed in this work by Sergeant Francis Mc- Carty, custodian of equipment, and Sergeant Arley Buckner, who in addition to his other duties, has been given full control of rifle marksmanship. Major Price in 1935 completed his fifth year with the local unit and under his com- mand it has satisfactorily passed the annual federal inspection five years in succession to win the blue star rating of Excellent. Major Price has been appointed commandant of the annual summer encampment held at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas. Captain Rutledge completed his sixth year and last year with the University, having been transferred to Hawaii, August 1, 1935. Until this year Captain Rutledge had been in charge of rifle marksmanship, andhad pro- duced girls' rifle teams that won the annual Kemper matches three out of four times. Captain Harry L. Lewis, formerly of Fort George Wright, Washington, succeeds Cap- tain Rutledge. Captain Lewis is a graduate of the infantry school at Fort Benning, Georgia, having entered the army from Pennsylvania in 1917. Sergeant McCarty has completed his sec- ond year with the unit and his twenty-third year in the United States army. His task here is no light one, with more than two hundred rifles and other military equipment to care for, and the army paper work to keep in order, but the degree of efficiency with which he has carried out his work is indicated by the approval of the government inspectors.

His capability is demon- strated in the fact that the girls' rifle team, under his coaching, won the Kemper rifle meet this year. It is the belief of the officers that to per- fect the unit, it is necessary to have a high attendance recordg hence, they reward the company having the nearest perfect record. Company G had the best record for both semesters this year. Late in the spring the seven companies of the unit held the annual company and indi- vidual competitive drill, the winners of which were appropriately rewarded. Reorganized in 1924 through the efforts of Francis West, the R. O.T.C. Band today is one of the finest and largest organizations of its type in the United States and has grown until it now has 80 members-double Page Twenty-three the number of 1924. The band is directed by Walter Duerksen who has compiled a his- tory of the beginnings of the organization. Unlike most other universities, which have a band in addition to the R. O. T. C. Band, the Wichita organization serves for both. Since it is a military group there are no women members, the women's parallel or- ganization being the Girls' Drum and Bugle Corps. While the band's exhibitions of pomp and splendor on the gridiron have won ac- claim on every such occasion, it is not pri- marily a. football band. Its purpose is not to present showy spectacles for the entertain- ment of football patrons during the between- the-halves lull in football games: its aim has been to appeal to the better tastes of its audiences, to master and present the classics of the ages and the best works of the mod- ern composers. In this, the concert band has succeeded admirably under the direction of Mr. Duerk- sen. L ew dlffin dvafafia :Ring W 4 Jmigfazy gpfencfoz Credit for the most colorful social affairs of the University goes to the cadets of the Reserve Officers Training Corps. Each year during the autumn season these men stage a military ball which is presided over by the honorary colonelva young lady who is cho- sen from the women of the senior class and one who becomes well-known to every Shocker student during the course of the University year. The theme of the decorations and program for the military ball always carries out an atmosphere that exalts military ideals. The cadets themselves plan and execute the dec- orations. The affair is a combination of danc- ing, good music and a parade of military splendor. The honorary colonel this year, Miss Nat- alie Ring, was officially presented to the unit and she then reviewed a special battalion pa- rade staged in her honor. A limited number of civilians were permitted to attend the ball. Each year on George Washington's birth- day the Reserve Officers Association holds a military ball to which all R. O. T.

Second Lieutenant LAWRENCE KLOS .... First Sergeant Scabbard and Blade, the only military fra- ternity to be officially recognized by the War Department of the United States, is a Na- tional honorary organization and is repre- sented in Wichita by 24 members. The local chapter, F Company, Seventh Regiment, was organized April 17, 1930, by ten cadet offi- cers who were then members of the local Saber Club, and who petitioned the national headquarters for membership in the organi- zation. The petition was signed and ap- proved by all the leading members of the University faculty. The fraternity was originally founded on the campus of the University of Wisconsin in 1904 by the officers of the cadet corps. Membership in the organization is limited to cadets in the advanced courses of military science who have shown themselves to be outstanding in military work, in general school work, and in character. The purpose and aim of the fraternity is to spread intelli- gent information about military affairs in the communities in which its members may reside, and to make good citizens of its members. Faculty sponsors for the 1934-35 school year were Major George W. Price, professor of military science and tactics, and Captain Cecil L. Rutledge, assistant pro- fessor. Each year the members of Scabbard and Blade sponsor certain brilliant social func- tions, including the military ball, a spring formal dinner-dance, and a dinner in honor of the regular army officers in command of the R. O. T. C. unit. Every one of these affairs is unique in University social circles in that Scabbard and Blade is the only mili- tary organization on the campus. Page Twenty-five .. , .

Pi Kappa Psi was organized in 1922, members of Sorosis, Alpha Tau Sigma and Delta Omega uniting with ten freshman pledges to form the new society. In the twelve years of its existence on the campus, the sorority has achieved much to further the interests of the Univer- sity. This year the group has furnished members for the Student Council, the Y. W. C. A. cabi- net, the W. A. A. board, and several of the honorary organizations, As is the custom, the sor- ority entertained at Christmas for the children of the Phyllis Wheatley Home. Throughout the year, the members presided at courtesies for the mothers and patronesses. Dr. Hazel Branch has been the sponsor of Pi Kappa Psi since its founding.

Q35 ffzaifyon mafia In January of this year the local dra- matics group, known as the University Players, was granted the twenty-eighth chapter charter in the national honorary dramatic fraternity, the National Collegiate Players, or Pi Epsilon Delta. This recogni- tion was regarded as a distinct honor to the University of Wichita, the only municipally- endowed school to be awarded such a chap- ter, and as a tribute to Prof. George D. Wil- ner and his policy of producing excellent productions. One of the purposes of establishing such a chapter upon the campus was to encour- age interest in dramatic endeavor in all its fields. Student activity in dramatics includes much besides acting, Requirements for ad- mission into the National Collegiate Players include demonstrated interest and activity in stage production, lighting, make-up, and other phases attendant to dramatics. Active members of the local chapter in- clude Miss Kathryn Ewing, presidentg Mrs. Doris Walter Baxter, vice-president, Miss Vera Setzer, secretary, Richard Jones, treas- urerg Miss Mary Katherine Gelbach, Court- ney Osborn, Eugene Spangler, Herbert Lindsley, and Professor Wilner who is also faculty advisor. Associate members are Miss Willie Madge Bryant, Miss Bettina Bos- worth, Mrs. Kay Clawson Guthrie, Edward Peek, Roy Schuessler, Charles Ellis, Edward Tuttle, and Garner Shriver, all former stu- dents at the University and active in dra- matics. Honorary members are Mrs. David Jackman, Mrs. Victor Murdock and Clayton Henri Staples. Meetings of Pi Epsilon Delta are held reg- ularly every three weeks. The general en- deavor of the local chapter is to sponsor at least one three-act play a year, and also to produce one-act plays in Wichita and sur- rounding towns. The organization this year sponsored the production of He and She by Rachel Crothers, To The Ladies by Kaufman and Connelly, with a faculty cast, the melodrama, Gold in the Hills, by J. Frank Davis, and 'I he Importance of Being Earnest by Oscar Wilde, The visiting officer for the celebration ac- companying the installation of Pi Epsilon Delta was Dr. Gertrude E. Johnson, national executive secretary of the national organi- zation. From her observation of the activi- ties in the community she paid the Univer- sity and the city of Wichita high tribute in saying that Wichita has something to give to the cultural world which appreciates dra- matic art in its finest form. Page Foity-eight me a qlfladfozz Zeta. chapter of Omega Upsilon, national dramatic sorority, was founded in 1914, the fifth to be formed by the mother chapter, Alpha. The purpose of Omega Upsilon is the promotion of the art of the drama and in particular the study of American dra- matics. One of the foremost events of the University year is the annual prize play con- test sponsored by Omega Upsilon and par- ticipated in by the various social sororities and fraternities on the campus. Awards are also made to the outstanding actor and act- ress as chosen by a select committee of judges. Mrs. Roy Elliott is sponsor of the group with Mrs. Alice Campbell Wrigley as hon- orary sponsor. During her two-day appear- ance in Wichita last spring, Miss Eva LeGallienne, famous American actress, was initiated as an honorary member. Officers of the sorority for 1935 were Miss Eunice Snyder, president, Miss Helen Marble, vice-president, Miss Vera Setzer, secretary, Miss Lucille Custer, treasurer, Miss Kathryn Ann Emery, conductressg and Miss Mary Bee Stewart, chancior. The Wchita chapter will be hostess to rep- resentatives from all the chapters in the national organization in September, 1935. The Omega Mothers' Club, an actve unit of the sorority, assists members in making arrangements for many activities.

The group this year was unusually active and attracted much attention in musi- cal circles of the city. Outstanding activities participated in by the group for the year include appearances of the vocal trio and several individual solo- ists on many programs. The sorority spon- sored Mrs. May Williams Ward, prominent Kansas poetess, in a benefit musicale in April. Patronesses and honorary members of the group include Mrs. Rene M, Gouldner, Mrs. Grace Baker Shanklin, Mrs. Susie Ballinger Newman, Mrs. Frances Fritzlen Ebright, Mrs. Thurlow Lieurance, Mrs. Boyce Red- field, and Mrs. Paul M.

Membership in the orchestra includes outstanding instrument- alists among the faculty and students on the campus, augmented by a number of profes- sional musicians in the city. Soloists fea- tured on orchestra concerts are Mrs. Thur- low Lieurance, soprano, Mrs. Beatrice San- ford Pease, violinistg George Tack, flutistg Miss Marguerite Munselle, harpist, and Audrey Sanford, clarinetist. The chorus membership is made up almost entirely of students, with several faculty members as soloists, including Roy A. Schuessle1', Mrs. Lieurance, Mrs. Paul M. Oberg, and others. Annually the aggregate group is presented at the Forum in a city concert which is con- sidered to be one of the outstanding musical events in the state. Compositions by Dean Lieurance, including his suites Minisa, Trails Southwest, Paris Sketches, and t'Conquistador, which are written for and are played by the Minisa group, have brought added fame to the University and to Dean Lieurance whose By the Waters of Minnetonka is beloved throughout the World. Page Fifty-one Civic clubs of city, state and international scope have sponsored convention appear- ances of the orchestra and chorus, including Kiwanis, Rotary, Lions, professional associa- tions such as osteopathic, newspaper, teach- ers, professional women, music teachers, and others. The groups also have appeared sep- arately and together before other groups, filling many out-of-town engagements which this season included Kansas City, Dodge City and El Dorado. Prominent on the city mid-winter musical calendar for this year was the concert pre- sented by the orchestra and chorus, Sunday afternoon, January 20, at Wichita High School East. The concert was attended by a large audience. A small choir of women's voices assisted the orchestra on the ladies' tea program during the meeting of the American Association of Petroleum Geolo- gists in Wichita, March 20-23. Other activities of the College of Fine Arts include an a capella choir, which makes up the greater part of the chorus of the Wichita Civic Opera Company, and various instrumental and vocal ensembles which are popular on Wichita programs. The a. capella choir, directed by Mr. Schuessler, was fea- tured on memorial concerts for Bach and Wagner, sponsored by Otto L. Fischer of the Downtown Division.

Dtafozy ana! Dagczfs Claiming a favorable degree of attention from students of the University this year was the work done in the field of oratory and debate, under the direction of Leroy Lewis, instructor in speech and debate, and Carl England, assistant professor of speech. Varsity debates for beginners have been a popular feature this year and have stimu- lated interest in speech work. Prominent on the school's program work, also, were the freshman contests, one of which was held in late February, in which Miss Katherine Newell won first place, and a debate held in early May on the question, Resolved: That Student Government on the American Campus is a Failure. Work of the advanced debate squads brought many honors to the University. De- bating the national question for the year, Resolved: That the Unted States should prevent the International Shipment of Arms and Munitions, the women's team, corn- posed of Miss Natalie Ring and Miss Vera Setzer, placed second at the Winfield tour- nament, and ranked high, as did the men's team, at the regional meet in Durant, Okla- homa. The men's team consisted of Richard Jones and Frank Malone, Miss Ring ranked first as best individual women's speaker at the contest, as well as winning first in the women's extemporaneous speaking. Al Kaiser, James Riddel and Harry Corbin were the outstanding University men in the Winfield meet. Other out-of-town trips which University debaters took included work at the Kansas City Law School tournament, a non-decision debate, a radio broadcast at Manhattan, and various trips to nearby schools for non-de- cision practice work. Other debaters whose work entitles them to membership in Pi Kappa Delta, national honorary forensic fraternity, include Miss Kathryn Ewing, Miss Ruth Satterthwaite, Harry Corbin, Roy Rogers, Homer Bottoms, Russell Boaz, Henry Onsgard, Alfred Kaiser and James Riddel. Miss Loneta Brown was president of Pi Kappa Delta this year. Other officers of the chapter included Mr. Malone, vice-presidentg Miss Ewing, secretary, and Mr. Jones, social chairman. Mr. Lewis spoke at a convention of the National Association of Teachers of Speech at New Orleans during the Christmas sea- son. A farewell dinner was given by Pi Kappa Delta for Mr. Lewis, the affair carry- ing out the theme of the debate proposition for the year, Farewell to Arms. A picnic in the spring of the year is an annual event of the forensic people.

In no previous year has the student publication- founded in 1896fpresented so many stories with real news interest to the Shockers as it did this year. Scores of Sunflower scoops were rehashed by the daily newspapers of the community. Hite C. Taylor was chief of the Sunflower organization for the entire year and it was under his guidance that the publication awakened a demand for improved drives on the campus. This campaign resulted in the paving of all the major roadways and the improvement of others. Russel Shaffer was in charge of the finan- cial organization which necessarily included the advertising department. Prof. Leo W. Allman, head of the depart- ment of journalism, induced University offi- cials to provide the press department with the proper equipment for filing pictures and other valuable material. The morguefas it is calledfno doubt will prove a worthwhile addition. The Sunflower has been published weekly since 1907, having at first appeared as a monthly. Here we find the newspapermen of the Univer- sity about ready to flood the campus with some Sunflower gossip. They are Hite C. Taylor, edi- tor-in-chief, on the left, and Russel W. Shaffer, business manager. 4.5 Members of the Sunflower staff during the year included iseatedl Mary K. Gelbach, Erna Harris, Martha Ann Gwinn, Marguerite Munselle, and Cstandingl Stanford Waddell, Loy Wood, Edwin Thomas, Ila Banta and Paul Threlfall. Several members of the staff are not pictured. They are Margaret Hayes, Eleanor Corcoran, Glen Soderstrom, Peggy Harvey and Paul Threlfall. Page Fifty-three 1206551 atm, Familiar to every veteran Shocker is the atmosphere of anticipation which begins to fill the air each spring when it is realized that the logical distribution date for the University yearbook is near at hand. With every student receiving a Parnassus-as the volume is called-in 1935, the degree of an- ticipation was just a little greater and more students looked forward to seeing their pictures. Coming as a complete surprise Within the department, the first copies of the 1935 Par- nassus were distributed at the annual jour- nalism. banquet, May 20. On the following day, other copies flooded the campus and signatures began to spot their pages. Edwin Thomas yielded the big stick over the assistant editors this year and Gifford Booth, Jr., experienced the worries that face the business manager. A surprising number of University of Wichita students do not know the deriva- tion of the word Parnassus. In 1889, when the book was first issued, Fairmount Hill brought to the mind of one of the students the mythological mountain sacred to the Muses and its name-Parnassusvwas soon applied to the annual publication. The volume is now published under the supervision of the board of publications and Prof. Leo W. Allman, head of the depart- ment of journalism. ,J nofgaz .f afuzcmiui In the midst of winter the photograher caught the Parnassus chiefs in characteristic poses. The business manager of the book was Gifford Booth, Jr. fleftb, and the editor was Edwin Thomas. 1 Members of the Parnas- sus staff included Lseat- edb Natalie Ring, sorori- ties: Loneta Brown, classesg Jean Van Ars- dale, women's sports: Marguerite Munselle, fine arts: fstandingl Stanford Waddell, copyand proofs: Loy Wood, military: Bernard Downing, art: Mary K.

At the beginning of the year the sorority members presided at a rush tea in the home of Mrs. Rene Gouldner, honorary sponsor. At the first pledge service five girls were inducted into the organization. Throughout the year, the sorority held in- formal luncheons and suppers with a dis- cussion of the current topics in the news- paper world. The group also aided in the redecoration of the rooms of the Brig, the journalism building. Miss Mary Katherine Gelbach was presi- dent of the organization during the first semseter of the year, and Miss Ila Banta acted as president during the spring term. Sorority sponsors were Mrs. Leo W. A11- man, Miss Mildred Guilliams and Miss Ger- aldine Hammond. Page Fifty-five Colophon, men's honorary journalism fra- ternity of the University, this year enjoyed a larger membership than at any time dur- ing its four years existence. Only men stu- dents in the journalism department who have held staff positions on the Sunflower, University newspaper, are eligible for mem- bership in the group, which like the women's organization, endeavors to stimulate inter- est in the field of journalism. Distinctive from the policy of any other campus organization is that of Colophon in regard to the time of its meetings. The gatherings this year were breakfast affairs and were staged at 6:30. Many times during the Winter, Colophon's members displayed their determination and headed for the Bucket on lonely, dark streets. But spring weather brought even more enjoyable meet- ings. Men with many years of newspaper experience contributed to the meetings. Hite Taylor and Russel Shaffer headed the group and Prof. Leo W. Allman acted as advisor. Heavens, a conflagration! . . .

These are Dr. William M. Jardine, president of the University, the nine civic leaders who compose the Board of Regents, and the Council of Deans. Dr. Jardine this year brought to a close his first full year with the University with a great record of achievements to his credit. Coming to Wichita in March, 1934, he brought with him a Wealth of experience which he had garnered in his versatile ca- reer. He has for sometime been recognized as one of the foremost educators in the field, and has done much to bring recognition to this University. The president has made a careful study of pressing local problems during the first year in office, and has made progress his keynote. The increasing enrollment has given rise to several problems which the president is attempting to solve as rapidly as possible. At the close of the school year he was endeavoring to obtain funds for the erection of new buildings and enlarging the athletic stadium. Dr. Jardine has appeared before many of the civic clubs this year, and has been instrumental in drawing the Uni- versity closer to the citizens of Wichita. Working in collaboration with the presi- dent is the Board of Regents. The Board consists of nine prominent civic leaders who contribute much to the University by active- ly directing the business and policies of the institution. This group acts in the capacity of an advisor and carries on its work by means of committees. The Regents also di- rectly supervise each of the four colleges of the University. Four of the members are elected by the City Commission with the Mayor of Wichita acting as an ex-officio member. Winn E. Holmes has presided as chair- man of the Board this year with John M. Kirkwood as vice-chairman. S. Carnot Brennan, who was appointed to fill the un- expired term of Clyde Smyser, deceased, has been secretary. The treasurer this year was Charles Parr. Other members of the Board are Walter Henrion, Otto L. Souders, Mrs. Rene Gouldner and Dr. Henry W. Horn. The Board is divided into four commit- tees. Mr. Kirkwood was this year chairman of the ways and means committee. Dr. Horn acted as chairman of the committee on buildings and grounds. The supply com- mittee Was headed by Mr. Parr, and Mrs. Gouldner directed the activities of the audit- ing committee.

These men work as a connecting link between the faculty and the adminis- trative offices, taking an active part in fac- ulty committees. They make up the cata- logue-curriculum committee as well as act- ing as chairmen and members on other com- mittees. Frank A. Neff is senior dean and dean of the College of Business Administration. He was associated with Fairmount College from 1911 to 1926, and took his present position with the University of Wichita in 1926. The College of Business Administration offers complete courses in business and engineer- ing. The Fairmount College of Liberal Arts, with, Lambertus Hekhuis as dean, provides not only a thorough cultural education but it offers preparation for graduate work through pre-professional courses in law, medicine, theology, and other fields. Page Fifty-nine Acting as dean of the College of Educa- tion and director of the summer session, Leslie B. Sipple has been affiliated with the University since 1929. The College of Edu- cation offers the professional courses re- quired for a state certificate to teach in the State of Kansas, and it is fully accredited by the American Association of Teachers' Colleges. Thurlow Lieurance, dean of the College of Fine Arts, has done much to bring recogni- tion to the University. He is a composer of merit, and his work is featured by his Minisa Chorus and Orchestra. He has held his present position since 1926, A fifth member of the Council of Deans is Earl K. Hillbrand, dean of the Graduate School, which was organized in 1928. This school aims to produce investigators and to provide additional training for those already in the teaching profession. Dean Hillbrand has been particularly active in the promo- tion of the convocation programs during the year.

WLLKSZ5, of fam ui cuzcf 931511 Keeping the interests of the student body ever in mind, the Student Council achieved unusual success in its work this year. It acted as a representative of the students in appointing committees, spending the money appropriated from the activity fees, and act- ing as an envoy to the faculty. Officers of the Council this year were Joe Solter, presidentg Bill Hartong, vice-presi- dentg Miss Zelia Hyde, secretary: and Don Pray, treasurer. The president, Mr. Solter, attended a meeting in Washington, D. C., of the National Student Federation of America at which time he was elected regional chair- man. The Council embodies three important committees which were this year headed by John Burris, Jack Emery and Jimmie Lee. The Board of Publications is a body of eight members which controls the publica- tions of the student body and endeavors to prevent the circulation on the campus of unwarranted material printed without the approval of the University body. The Board, which consists of two members from each class, is advised by President William Jar- dine, Prof. Leo W. Allman and Roy W. Elliott. The chairman this year was Prof. George D. Wilner. Page Sixty gait 04172022 tfla gigs 1 Perpetuation of a friendly and co-opera- tive relationship among the women's Greek letter sororities is the aim of the Women's Pan Hellenic Council of the local University. Each sorority of the school is represented by three women-the president, a junior member and a representative-at-large. This makes a total membership of 15 persons. Miss Grace Wilkie, dean of women, is spon- sor and supervisor of the organization. Besides revising the constitution and rush rules this year, the group made some changes in the regulations governing the ob- servance of hell-week by the sororities. The annual Mother's Day Tea and pro- gram was sponsored by the Council in co- operation with the Young Women's Chris- tian Association. Continually promoting inter-fraternity good-will, the Men's Pan Hellenic Council is an efficient representative body of the four men's social organizations. Since its organization in 1928, it has sought to bring about a closer unity among the school's fraternities, to create an im- proved social atmosphere, to limit and con- trol rush periods, and to raise the standard of scholarship. Acting as an intermediary body, the Coun- cil discusses and solves, to the best of its ability, problems of the University traced either directly or indirectly to fraternities. Each fraternity has two representatives in the Council. Dr. Lambertus Hekhuis, dean of the Col- lege of Liberal Arts, has been faculty ad- visor since the Council's organization seven years ago.

Approximately one hundred men and women, whole-heartedly interested in the promotion of education, are members of the faculty of the University of Wichita. Each has a personal goal, but all are striv- ing to raise the standards of the University. These educators represent the work of 44 American universities and several foreign institutions. Twenty members of the staff have received Ph. D. degrees. The faculty is divided according to the four colleges on the campus, and the down- town division of the College of Fine Arts which includes 18 members on the staff. This year Mrs. Grace Baker Shanklin was appointed director of the division, and the enrollment now numbers approximately six hundred. The division serves as an essential part of the College of Fine Arts, taking stu- dents of all ages. College credit is given for the work. The faculty on the campus co-operates in the management of the University by means of committees. An important committee functioning in the fall of the year was the freshman week committee which was headed by Dr. Hazel Branch this year. This com- mittee arranged the orientation program for the freshman students. Dean Earl K. Hill- brand is chairman of the committee of fel- lowships, scholarships and loans. Adjacent to this is the student aid committee which was first elected by the faculty in July, 1933. This committee passes on all applications for remission of tuition and student employ- ment. In determining which students are eligible for aid, the committee considers scholarships, need and campus citizenship of each. Dr. Hugo Wall is chairman. The convocation committee serves the University in providing programs for the bi- weekly convocations. The programs are prepared with a view to educational value, student interest, and integrating influences. Dean Earl K. Hillbrand was chairman of this committee. Prof. S. W. Wright was chairman of the committee of ten for the homecoming celebration. The committee for the student board of publications was head- ed by Prof. George D. Wilner. Dr. John Rydjord was chairman of the athletic pol- icy committee and Dean Arthur J. Hoare was chairman of the advanced standing committee. Miss Marie Graham has acted as chair- man of the social committee, Dr. C. C. Mc- Donald as chairman of the commencement week decorations and Miss Alice M. Isely as chairman of the commencement program committee. Other committees are the library commit- tee, museum committee, parent-day courtesy committee, schedule committee, student activity committee, and the committees for the housing of men and women. The names of three members of the Uni- versity faculty were included in the first issue of the recent publication, '4America's Young Men. They were Dr. Worth A. Fletcher, registrar, Dean Earl K. Hillbrand, dean of the Graduate School, and Prof. Lloyd McKinley, head of the chemistry de- partment. Several other members of the staff have also received national recogni- tion. Prof. Leo W. Allman was made a member of the committee of three to work out a plan of co-operation between the American Newspaper Guild and the Ameri- can Association of Schools and Departments of Journalism. Dr. Ralph Crum was similar- ly honored in the field of English, and Dr. John Rydjord was elected vice-president of the Southwestern Social Science Associa- tion. Dr. Hugo Wall was made associate editor of the Southwestern Social Science Quarterly. The activities of the faculty, however, have not been confined to the curricular work scheduled. The leisure hours in the fall of the year were filled by a golf tournament which the faculty men sponsored. The prin- cipal event of the spring term was the suc- cessful production of the play, To the Ladies. Another festivity of the year was the dinner given by the Council of Faculty Women of the University in honor of Mrs. W. M. Jardine. Page Sixty-two gacuffy LEO W. ALLMAN, A. B., M. A.

The national body was founded in 1911 in the University of Illinois, the local chapter being estab- lished in May, 1932. To be eligible for mem- bership one must be at least a junior in classification, have six hours of work in the College of Education, and have an 88 schol- astic average. The symbols of the sorority are the scroll, the stylus, and the beehive, which represent the desire of the society for hard work and service to mankind. This year the organization gave a series of open-forum meetings which were open to anyone interested in education. Such speak- ers as L. W. Brooks, principal of Wichita High School North, Mrs. Grace Downs, stu- dent advisor of Wichita High School East, and Prof. Martin F. Palmer of the Univer- sity Speech Clinic were presented. Kappa Delta Pi sponsored the first con- vocation of the new year, presenting Truman G. Reed, principal of Wichita High School East, as speaker. Ten candidates were pledged to the soror- ity at the banquet which was held early in the year. On March 9, the annual spring pledge banquet was held at which time eight additional students were pledged. Dr. Wil- liam M. Jardine and Miss Faye Gregory were inducted into the organization this year as honorary members. One of the most anticipated events of the University each year is the presentation of the Kappa Delta Pi award, an engraved placque, to the outstanding senior in the College of Education. The award, which was given to Garner Shriver in 1934, is based on scholarship, leadership, character, citizen- ship, and co-operation, and is presented each spring at graduation. The officers for the year were: Miss Zelia Hyde, president, Miss Carol Schowalter, vice-president, Miss Helen McWethy, secre- tary, Miss Ruth Vandenberg, treasurer, Miss Ruth Seedle, corresponding secretary, Mrs. Carol Colbert, historian, and Miss Natalie Ring, reporter. Leslie B. Sipple, dean of the College of Education, acted as sponsor of the organi- Zation. Pa ge N inety Bsfao Dau me cz as Tau. Omega, national honorary aeronau- tical fraternity, was founded at the Univer- sity of Oklahoma in 1927 by a group of aeronautical engineering students and oth- ers interested in the various aspects of the science of flying. Their intention was that of providing a means of intellectual and social contact among aeronautically-minded students on the campus. The venture proved so successful at the University of Oklahoma that the fraternity was incorporated on a national basis in 1928, and contacts were made with interested groups at other uni- versities for the formation of additional chapters. A petition for a charter was submitted in 1931 by a group of aeronautical engineering students at the University of Wichita, and early in the spring of 1932 the Beta Chapter was installed at this institution. Since its organization high scholastic requirements have always been maintained for member- ship, and the ability of the members has been demonstrated clearly in the enviable positions the alumni members have been able to achieve in the aeronautics industry since their graduation from the University. President 8 M . Sf fx!! LESLIE H. WARNER Vice-President ' LEONARD E. ZONGKER Secretary-Treasurer KENNETH DozE Ciib Activities of the Beta Chapter of Tau Omega during the college year were many and varied. Meeting periods were devoted to the presentation of technical papers and open discussions, and, many phases of fly- ing, airplane design and engineering, and other diversified engineering subjects were presented. Social activities of the chapter included. the annual dinner and smoker, a trip by air to Kansas University at Law- rence, participation in the annual all-school hippodrome, and various impromptu flying jaunts in this vicinity. The year was cli- maxed by the annual national convention held at the University of Oklahoma, April 26 and 27. Delegates from the Beta Chapter made the trip by airplane, and reported a successful business and social convention.

Page Ninety-two 07855565 Jvafuzaf menacing oaisfy With membership open to all women of the University, Orchesis this year participated in more events than ever before in its history. The society's aim is to create and do natural danc- ing. This affords an opportunity for the women to enjoy relaxation and training. The meet- ings of the club were held weekly in the evenings with Miss Gladys Taggart acting as sponsor. Prominent on Orchesis' program was the recital given in which all members took part. Mem- bers of the club submitted manuscripts and the best one was chosen for the recital. It was a fairy story written by Miss Jeannette Stearns. The club presented a striking dance in the annual May Fete. Miss Mary Lou Ambrose was president during the year, Miss Belva Webb was sec- retary, and the treasurer was Miss Virginia Alford. U65 gicfcfingi oaisfbzj Having as their purpose the creating and developing of interest in the field of sociology and social administration, major students in the department of sociology organized the Giddings Society in 1934, under the supervision of Dr. Glenn A. Bakkum, head of the sociology depart- ment. This club provides opportunities for creative efforts among the students along lines of social research, as well as promoting fellowship and scholarship. At the weekly meetings this year several outstanding speakers in the field were presented. The club co-operated in social service work at Thanksgiving and Christmas time, and later developed a plan for distributing reading material among those who are in need of it. Miss Eunice Snyder acted as president this year. She was assisted by Miss Marguerite Boston, vice-presidentg Miss Ruth Murray, treas- urer, and Ronald Van Welden, secretary. Cyoffsgiafs 4-GS! Organized during the second semester of 1933-34, the Collegiate 4-H Club serves as a social organization of former 4-H members now attending the University of Wichita. It also serves to interest other 4-H members in higher education. This year the organization became much better known to the student body than formerly. The organization carried out its social pro- gram, having regular meetings throughout the year. The second annual senior day was an out- standing event of the year. This has now been made an annual event of the club. Edwin Miller directed the activities of the group during the first semester. The spring term officers included Miss Margaret Kohl, president, Miss Margaret Mason, vice-presidentg Miss Dorothy Mae Hut- son, secretary, Clark Roach, treasurer, Miss Margaret Wilson, program chairmang and Mr. Miller, social chairman. siaufafziua, gbfzs-dlffscfiaa Although members of Aesculapius find time to enjoy occasional get-togethers, the primary purpose of the organization revolves around the pre-medical work of the University. Students in the pre-medics department of the school are eligible to membership and find that the sup- plementary program of the club is of much benefit to them in their regular work. This year there were 30 members and pledges. Several men of the medical profession were obtained to speak at the regular meetings of the group. At times, advanced students of the department had charge of the programs and told about their work as well as giving demonstrations. Sponsors of Aesculapius this year were Dr. Hazel Branch and Dr. Frederick Sauer. Second Semester officers were Miss Mary Tippin, presidentg Cramer Reed, vice-president, Miss June Hamilton, secretary: and Woodrow Campion, pledge master.

Page Ninety-four niueuity Bauman The University Business Club is one of the younger, yet most progressive groups on the campus, being founded in the year 1931. Its purposes are three-fold, namely: to co-ordinate the theoretical principles of economics with their actual application in business, to give those ma- joring in economics an insight into the different fields of business, and to create a closer rela- tionship between the business men of the city and the University's College of Business Adminis- tration. In order to attain these goals, the club this year sponsored numerous field trips and obtained speakers from the various lines of business and industry. The most outstanding event ofLthe school year was the banquet given at the Wichita Club honoring Senator Henry J. Allen. Vincent Moore and Murray Howard headed the Business Club during the year. niosuitbzj Scoutszil Having gone on record as a standing committee of service to the University, the University Scouters' Club this year became an active organization of the school. Membership is open to those men who have at one time been Boy Scouts. The purpose of the group is to develop friend- ship and to promote service on the campus and to the Scouting organization. Many projects were adopted by the group at the first of the year and demanded the attention of the members. Next year the club will do much to welcome the new freshman students to the University campus. The club is sponsored by Prof. Cecil B. Read, Prof. Cyril Grace and Dr. C. C. McDon- ald. Officers for the year were Max Hatfield, president, Jack Gotterup, vice-presidentg Eugene Everett, secretary, and Hubert Steele, treasurer. -I oung Enema Cwziifian moaiafion During the past year a fellowship and a spirit of co-operation have been shown by the mem- bers of the Y. M. C. A. Their activities on the campus have been of school-wide interest. 'Ihe work done by this organization during the year 1934-35 together with the Y.W.C.A. was the presentation of the Thanksgiving, Christmas and Easter convocations, the all-school mixer, the all-school skate, and the Hippodrome. Another service performed on the campus was the estab- lishing of an employment bureau. These outside activities were a supplement to the regular program which is carried out each school year. Edward Morrison was president for the past year, with John McQuown assisting him as vice-president and program chairman. Cramer Reed was secretary-treasurer. The membership committee included Henry Onsgard, Glenn Moss, Dene Heskett and Robert Coe. augur: of qflfomalz Wotszi Trying in every way to arouse political and social welfare interest, the University League of Women Voters has opened its meetings to any University Woman who is interested. It is a non- partisan organization which meets once a month to discuss questions which confront the modern voter. This year the organization sponsored a non-partisan booth to distribute voting material for the state election in November. Not only was there material concerning each candidate, but the members gave instruction as to the proper method of casting the vote. Officers for the organization this year were Miss Isabel Haines, president, Miss Marguerite Boston, vice-presi- dent, and Miss Mary Lou Ambrose, secretary-treasurer. Mrs. Glenn A. Bakkum, one of the organizers of the University League, is an honorary sponsor of the club, with Mrs. Joseph Griffith acting as active sponsor.

About 35 girls attend- ed. A theme of Travel'l was followed throughout the year. Exhibits from different places studied were displayed in the department. At Christmas time a family was adopted and given care. An open house was held in the department early in the spring for all students and faculty members. Representatives from the club attended the State Home Economics Meet at Manhat- tan, March 16-17. Officers of the club this year were Miss Martha Ann Gwinn, president, Miss Janet Roe, vice-president, Miss Frances Babb, secretary, and Miss Virginia Kilbourn, treasurer. We any Omen: 1 Cgfziifian uoaiafion Under the leadership of Miss Carol Schowalter, the University Y.W.C.A. had a successful year and made its influence very evident on the campus. One of the most outstanding events of the year was the Estes Park conference in June, with 12 students from the University attend- ing. Perhaps the most noticeable work of the organization this year was the candy store which the members have established. The purpose of the project is to provide money for the Estes conference. The Y. W. had a series of interest groups this year, in the desire to appeal to stu- dent interests. These included Philosophy of Life, Juvenile Delinquency, and the Marriage School. The officers for the year were Miss Carol Schowalter, president, Miss Helen McWethy, vice-president, Miss Frances Babb, secretary, and Miss Mary Cies, treasurer. Qi Beta 6756, cqzf Having as their purpose the maintaining and strengthening of interest in the field of fine and applied art, and bringing about a co-operative feeling among the art students of the Univer- sity, Pi Beta Chi, achieved a successful year. The club is composed of major and minor stu- dents in the art department. The group had Weekly meetings of study and work, and one meet- ing a month was devoted to a social hour. One of the most outstanding events in this year's program for the club was the bringing to the campus of Lorado Taft, prominent sculptor. As is the custom the club presided at the annual spring formal dinner May 17. The president for the first semester was Miss Marjorie Barber. She was succeeded by Myron Graham who pre- sided during the spring term. Bazgi, cfvon- qzafsznify gum By the combining of small interest groups, the non-sorority and non-fraternity people com- posed of sixty per cent of the student body and known as the Barbs, this year organized one of the most powerful groups ever to appear on the campus. Because of no representation in stu- dent government the group advanced to obtain this goal. The possibilities of the group were first realized in the election for homecoming queen when Miss Doris Miller, Barb, was elected to that honor. Strengthened by the victory, the group continued in its efforts and for the May election it combined with the Caucus coalition to elect Chancellor Myron Graham, Barb. The officers for the year were Dene Heskett, president, Elton Weeks, vice-president, Marjorie Bar- ber, secretaryg Myron Graham, treasurer, Charles Covington and Charles Foote, sergeants- at-arm.
