For wide-awake Shockers, the snapshots of these pages need no identification. We're sorry, but there is something in the fast- moving events of a college year that can't be shared with the casual observer. For us they are living things, and perhaps even ten years hence they will awaken memories of a year that was a whirlwind of thrills from the moment we enrolled . . . through a round of classes and parties . . . elections and pledging . . . football and finals . . . beard contests and war news. WMA Xl' nv ,, 53 f 'W Q all We swung through Christmas dances, January pledge ago- nies, F ebruary's HYM with screwy corsages, snow scenes, 8 a.m. hlackoutsf' March found us poking fun fhut thinking deeply, about air raid drills and first aid. Then came a swirl through spring cleaning, all-too-short moments of lawn-lounging, then finals again, with grade woes. Yes, clear down to June job-hunting, or Myrabel's bare feet on the lush grass of the Commons lawn, 1941-42 was an all out year. H ,f 5 -QW 35 E 5 U fl 5 , vffffrtf Y if 'rms-5 - ALL OUT FOR ICTORY By PRESIDENT IARDINE fifjgi -.TAMES T RUSLOW ADAMS has said, America's contributio-n to the world is the Great American Dream-a land Where life shall be richer and fuller and better with opportunity for every man according to achievement and ability. Today our country is at deathly grips to preserve for future generations the opportunities which that dream provides. There isn't much that American universities and colleges can do to aid our boys who are already in the service, but, I as- sure you, there is work of tremendous importance that the uni- versities now and throughout this struggle will endeavor to render young men and women who are privileged to remain in school. Many of you will not be called to the colors, but this War is so all-inclusive and so terrible that there is not one of you who will not be affected in one Way or another. We have a real stake in this fight. We are all going to have to give the very best we have if we are to win. Wars arenlt won by talking, by dancin g, jazzing, or going about in a hop-slqip-ana5 jump fashion. This war can only be won by sacrifice, hard work, a straight thinking, and indomitable courage and determination. This goes for the faculty, students, and p men in the front lines. If you show the same courage work and as citizens in your shown on Bataan Peninsula, the settled our Way. If we , We also will Win the and living up to it we are made of. Then, rican Dream AUDITURIUM OURCE of wonderment to many a new freshman is the real- ization that the little red schoolhouse at Shockerville is actually more than two dozen buildings! Majestic, yet friendly, the campus holds for everyone a charm that is typically Kansan, typically American. On these pages we see a few of the build- ings, beginning with the luxurious Auditorium and Commons, mecca of study-weary students seeking entertainment, recreation, and fellowship. ADMINISTRATIUN THE HUM of business for- ever pervades The Ad, home of most University of- fices and classrooms. Its spa- cious second floor rotuntla is fabulous as a stop-and-chat place for both students and faculty. MURRISUN ULDER to the campus are the remodeled Morrison Hull and I-Ienrion Gymnasium, now figuring in the activities of their second generation of Shockers.

Throned on the gentle slope of Wichita's only hill, the school over- looks the progressive city which it serves. Still farther to the north, the new Shocker Stadium, latest step in a continuous building program, takes form slowly. Below: any campus, without its students, is a lifeless thing. These scenes show what Shockers do for ours. K A 4 2.1 2 M-H 1 gg-11 'W , f 5 3 f - f 2. 5 2 2, i:a i W, gy-M X ikvwwwf , X H.

Iardine and the Board of Regents this year fell a new task-that of strength- ening the varied resources of the University into a unified, potent contribution to America's war effort. At meetings of the Board, held far more frequent- ly than usual, these policy-determining officials checked progress reports on the new Shocker Sta- dium, laid plans for further streamlining of the Uni- versity curriculum to meet wartime needs, voted to open night classes for defense workers, and expanded the school's pilot training program, in addition to routine matters. Members of the Board include President Iardine, P. K. Smith, Walter S. Henrion, S. Carnot Brennan, secretary, Mrs. I. H. Fugate, vice-chairman, Frank Barr, chairman, Iames Ross, Mayor Iohn Dotson, Winn E. Holmes, treasurer, and Otto Souders. In April Mr. Holmes resigned his position, and was replaced by Dr. T. Walker Weaver. On March I President Iardine, former secretary of Agriculture under Calvin Coolidge, celebrated the beginning of his ninth year as president of the University. PRESIDENT WILLIAM M.

'LAnd that, they explain, is what we're here forf' Members of the Board met regularly during the year to iron Out problems involved in controlling the activities of I,3OO students. Calls to the colors for many Shockers perplexed the work of enrollments and with- drawals, preparing transcripts, granting credits, and tuition refunds. But the deans waded through all of it, and even found time for a friendly chat with any student who wanted one. FRANK A.

WENTY-SIX assorted Ph.D's, five other Doctors', and 53 degrees for graduate study were recorded for the faculty in the 1941-42 University catalog. Virtually all of the nation's top-flight universities-Harvard, Columbia, Notre Dame, Chicago, Cornell, Missouri, Northwestern, Wisconsin, Stanford, Illinois, Haverford, Princeton, Washington and Lee, Indiana, California, Mich- igan, Nebraska, Iowa, Minnesota'-to name only a few, were represented on the teaching staff. Yet worried freshmen were relieved to find little of the austerity and pompous dignity the catalog seemed to suggest. They found instead a group of friendly men and women, quite normal and quite human, alert to guide their students in the complicated business of absorbing an education. PAGE 20 ALLS TO armed service and defense work were a problem this year for faculty members as well as for their students, with the: result that many changes had to be made in University personnel. Prof. Edwin A. Beito of the math department assumed full-time duties as a lieutenant-commander in the Navy in October. Dr. K. V. Manning left the physics department to become supervisor of a defense course at Penn State College. His successor, Leslie Brooking, had barely settled into his new position when he was recalled to Washingtonls Bureau of Aeronautics. Dr. Caroll W. Bryant finished the year as physics prof. - Positions at local defense plants took art instructor Walter Lengel and English instructor Lucille R. Gossett. At the close of the year, selective service officials had their eyes on William F. Crum, Leslie Blake, and Gene Spangler, while, a Fort Riley post loomed for Coach lack Sterrett.

For them the brief ceremony of graduation meant far more than the end of youth, and the beginning of maturity. It meant more than a parting of Ways that severed campus friendships, or fervent goodbyes to the Alma Mater they had loved. It meant even more than a transition from a life that was set and regulated' to one whose twists' and turns could not be set nor even predicted. The war world of 1942 needed no one to orate about it-no need to speak of 'fthe uncertain future. These graduates saw their future about them-saw it, felt it, hated it. And in their eyes was an answer to the menace and the challenge of the Words Uleadership and responsibilityl' in the black days to come. Some were to follow their classmates . . . Hesse, Sherman, Bodecker . . . into active service with the armed forces. Many others were to take jobs in the production lines of defense factories. Still more were to Work long and hard at vital civilian occupations. But the Class of 1942 was certain of something that had troubled those of the years before.

A record throng of Shocker students at- tended the Coronation varsity at the Blue Moon, making the first time that such an event has been sponsored off the campus. Iudge for the contest was Orchestra Leader Al Donahue, whose 16-piece name hand played Low Down Rhythm in a Top Hat for the dance. As a crown of white carnations was placed on her head, scintillating Heloise. a bit over-excited at the honor, could only squeal I-I'm nervous! into the Blue Moon's microphone.

STUDENT FORUM EETING notables of many fields Hon the home court was a privilege enjoyed this year by Shock- er students when the seventh annual season of the Stu- dent Forum series brought six internationally-famed speakers to the stage of the University Auditorium. Interest was enhanced this year following the adoption of a new plan by which only speakers well-known to students appear on the series. The Forum was governed by an Advisory Board of 40 members, chosen last spring from a list of ap- plicants by outgoing and incoming Forum officers. These officers, elected by last year's Advisory Board, and the committee chairmen, appointed by the execu- tive secretary, make up an Executive Board, responsible for directing all Forum activities.

Shockers' vital interest in world chaos was reflected by the predominance of news analysts and internation- al relations experts on the series. CORNELIUS VANDERBILT, writer and lecturer, startled 0 lethargic Wichitans early in the fall with all-too- accurate predictions that war between the United States and Iapan is only a matter of daysfl At a dinner preceding the lecture, he even prophesied that the United States would be invaded, and that Americans would serve for a time under the tyrannic hand of foreign rule. ARCHDUKE OTTO, heir to the Austrian throne, added a 0 touch of royalty to the series when he spoke early in November. He pointed out indications of a move- ment already at work among the oppressed peoples of Europe which would eventually rise to a sweeping revolution against the Nazi war machine. DR. ALBERT' E. WiooAM's syndicated newspaper column, 9 i'Let's Explore Your Mind had made this self- styled psychologist familiar to Wichitans before he ap- peared here. He cited alarming figures in his talk, Who Shall Inherit American, to set many listeners PAGE 43 0 thinking afresh about deficiencies in modern educa- tion, and that old bugaboo, birth control. KENT SAGENDORPH brought accurate scale models of 0 America's fighting planes to the platform to il- lustrate forcefully his discussion of America's Aerial Re-Armamentf' A recognized tactical expert on mili- tary and naval aviation, Sagendorph recited figures and specifications so readily that he befuddled many Shockers, who thought they knew all there is to know about aircraft. LEw SARRETT, woodsman, poet, adventurer, philosopher, 0 professor, and lecturer, will be remembered for a talk that made the University Auditorium a gallery of word pictures. His reminiscences of his north woods experiences, and his readings from his own poems waft- ed the audience into an audible silence that was not broken for minutes after the lecture was finished. DR. ROBER'I' A. MILLIKAN, who concluded the series, 0 displayed the role that science plays in the theater of war. The first man to isolate the electron, and an authority on cosmic rays, Dr. Millikan used the re- sults of his findings to prove to a packed house the astounding possibilities of military strategy which allies Science and War. PAGE 44 WITH everyone else bewailing the shortage of men since December, Prof. George D. Wilner of the dramatics department came through smiling, with no more of a bottleneck on males than he has always had. Despite what is apparently a discouraging lack of talent among University men, Mr. Wilner managed this year to present interesting performances of both current and past plays. The Contrast . . . His season began with '6The Contrast, by Royall Tyler, purportedly the first American comedy, show- ing strong influences from Moliere and other Con- Iames K. Barrett, musical director: I can say with- out prejudice that our performance was better than that of the San Carlo Opera Company several years ago, or better than that of the Met Company which appeared here this fallf, George D. Wilner, dramatic director: 'gThere will be points about it which will not be of professional calibre. The Ghost Train . . . Termed by some a 'thigh school play, the final production, Ghost Train,', turned out to be a thriller from the first curtain to the end of act two, after sHocKERvFgyDlli:ONE DRAMA tinental playwrights. The delineation of the charm and archaic grace of this type of play is one of Mr. Wilner's forlef, as those who have seen his productions of The Drunkardl' or Ten Nights in a BHFIOOIHN will assert. The cast was new to University audiences, except for Iuliaenne Weaver and Kenneth Kelly, who had stellar roles in last season's performances. Playgoers saw for the first time Mickey McCoy as the vivacious daugh- ter of Mr. Kelly, David Mackey as the stern, slow- speaking, successful suitor fthe alliteration is oursjg Gertrude Greenberg as the pert serving wenchg and lack Chester as the slippery Mr. Dimple. The two servants in the play are a source of much of the genial good humor. A counterplot in which Iessamy QMartin Williamsj and Ionathan CGeorge Davidsonj mimic the manners of their masters is a clever method of presenting the first stage Yankee to the audience. The Wildtlowern. . . Second Wilnerian production this year was g'The Wildflower, presented hopefully as the first of an annual series by the University Players in collaboration with the campus glee clubs. The musical began with a snappy overture from an orchestra rehearsed by An- thony Chiuminatto, new University music master. Then it proceeded on its tuneful way, complete with two casts, sugar-cured acting, and golden bantam gags. Pete Armstrong as the skirt chasing shyster walked away with the show, principally because he was completely at ease in his role. Mildred Lundy backed him up well with a thankless part, as did George Hickok. Connie Cochran as Bianca cut through the orchestra and could be heard in every syllable of her role. Also prominent in the cast were Betty Io Frederick, Arlene Tade, Kelsey Bodecker, Charles Terrell, and Virginia Popkins. Opinions of the two Wildflower,, directors are quoted here for ready reference: PAGE 45 0 which both cast and audience were too exhausted for further excitement. Indeed, the eerie atmosphere built up by a marvelous stage set, bells ringing, whistles blowing, and lights flashing, so thrilled lean McWil- liams of Iardinels office that she screamed with fright when tapped on the shoulder by Mr. Chiuminatto, whose only purpose was to comment on the play. It is not too much to say that not since the days of 'gThe Batn for many of the faculty, and 'KFranken- stein, for many of the students, have their spines been so continuously and so pleasantly tingled. Katherine Nash did a brilliant job as the nervous Iulia. Frances Fairchild played the first convincing drunk we have seen on the amateur stage. Tom Lahey swore with gusto, and quite naturally, too. David Mackey men- aced all over the station. Charles Purnell worked up a Wodehousian accent and costume, while Mr. Wilner himself made a fine hick stationmaster. Everyone in the cast joined in with a trick or two to heighten the suspense of 'gGhost Train. Rex Nor- ton designed the set and scenic effects. Sound effects, which demanded perfect synchronization with dia- logue, were directed by ever-faithful Gene Spangler. Hipputlrome . . . Final chance to see campus talent in action was at Hippodrome, annual Y.M.-Y.W. carnival. The Sorosis skit somehow conglomerated individual vaudeville by the sorority's members and won the inter-society con- test easily. The Alpha Gam skit had too much in it, including a live burro that walked unassisted through the Auditorium, but it kept the audience interested and the stage crew raving. Next fall Mr. Wilner will again be raving over the dearth of males, and will mention the fact that the essential requirement for membership in University Players seems to be persistence in staying out of plays. But that's all in the season, and after all, there are plenty of plays with all-female casts. DEBATE HSPITE drastic effects of the war on the size of the debate squad, cutting membership from 52 in November, to I2 in Ianuary, the team of talkers under Dr. Forest L. VVhan and Leslie M. Blake had a most successful year. It climaxed a full season by acting as host school to the Missouri Valley Forsenic League, entertaining teams from the state universities of Lou- isiana, Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Nebraska, and Kan- sas State College. During the year members of the squad appeared in 65 intercollegiate debates, two discussion contests, and three exteinporaneous speaking contests. Teams repre- senting 44 schools from I3 states and Canada were met, and one of the debates, a contest with Texas U. on federal sales tax, was chosen for publication in the 1942 edition of Izzlercollcgiatc' Debalef. Ioe Mohr and Iohn Megaffin participated. British debaters visited the campus for the third con- secutive year when David M. Hayne and E. S. Kirk- land, Canadian college students, met Hilda Specter and Ioe Mohr on the question: '4Resolved, That the United States should declare war immediatelyf' Pre- sented November I3 before a large audience in the University Auditorium, the debate evolved into a com- Lafvi is l.ll'l'Z The debate lI'lL'lllClL'5fl'i.llXY1l!'Ll Costello.

Accordingly, in a year when woes, in the form of rationings, shortages, draft calls, and the usual ex- ams, heckled many collegians, the Varsity Committee Went all out to provide top-notch entertainment at an increased number of University dances. Headed by Co-chairmen Iim Kirkwood and Bob Tyler, the committee consisted of one member from each campus organization, and included Iean Stoll, Suzanne Gay, Carol VVhitehead, Lorene Halbrook, Betty Anderson, Leonard Dixon, Bob Mallonee, Harold Hamilton, and Edgar Crum. All varsities were held in under-sized Henrion Gym- nasium, except for the gala Parnassus Coronation Varsity on Ianuary 30. On that occasion Al Donahue, nationally-famed bandleader, crowned Heloise Hill- brand as Queen of the 1942 Parnassus before an un- precedented throng of Shockers at the Blue Moon. A Varsity Committee dream came true in the fall with the formation of a union orchestra composed of Shocker students, curing forever the aged What-do- we-use-for-music PM headache. Skipper Mahlon Haw- kins and his Io-piece 'lVarsity Crew appeared at most of the dances, and played for many sorority and frater- nity functions as well. Vocalists with the band were Betty Sheridan, Betty Io Woodward, F. D. Broad- water, and Bob Eaton. The first varsity of the year saw the presentation of Carolyn Morris as Sweet Varsity Sue and David Christian as Varsity Sam. Holiday attractions in- cluded varsities at Homecoming, Thanksgiving, and May Day. Inaugurated this year was a novel schedule of var- sities sponsored by campus social organizations. Each of the groups, in an order determined by drawing straws, took over the management of one dance, pro- viding their own decorations and floor show. At the end of the year Alpha Tau was awarded a prize for the most novel and best-attended dance. UPPER I.:-.1-T: There was little iitterbugging at Shocker varsities.

From jumbled strains that shook the aged foundations of Fiske Hall was woven the repertoire of many concerts that brought visitors and acclaim to the campus. The Coed Hand of 25 pieces furnished peppy tunes at basket- ball games, and combined with the R.O.T.C. Band to make up the University Concert Band.

Membership is limited to three faculty members and one student from each of the four University classes, whose ap- pointments are confirmed by President Iardine. Non-voting members include the editors and business managers of the Sunflower and the Par1za5.m.c. The board is authorized to make all staff selections, approve publication contracts and budgets, and to prohibit the publication of unauthorized ma- terial on the campus. A rule which precludes a voting member of the board from holding a major staff position insures impartiality of decisions. MATRIX CHRISTMAS PARTY, a founders' day dinner in March, and regular monthlv meet- ings highlighted the year's activities for Matrix, honorary journalism sorority. Eight promising news writers were pledged in the fall, and became actives as soon as they won staff positions on Uni- versity publications.

Band this spring chalked off its eleventh season of advancement and service. Once again two complete bands were developed by Major Walter A. Duerksen, director of the unit since IQSI. The Marching Band of 68 R.O.T.C. cadet musi- cians paraded with the Shocker Army unit in colorful military reviews, and brought cheers and rhythmic hand-clapping with its martial music at football and basketball games. The Concert Band of 62 musi- cians was joined by 16 members of the University Coed Band for most of its scheduled performances. Twenty public appearances were made during the year, including concerts before 12,000 students this spring. At the annual spring concert April 20, the band featured 'Coronation Scene from Boris Godou- fzouf' and a modernistic interpretation of lc'rich0, by Morton Gould. On this occasion the band first displayed its new uniforms, casting aside the familiar olive drab for black coats, blue trousers, and white accessories. Gerald Feese was assistant director, and lack Howse was drum major and concert manager. Harry Beal was commanding officer. Members of the Concert Band included: cil..XlkIYli'I'--Bill!

They argued on matters of policy, explained new regulations, and forestalled needless faculty conferences with single organizations. Presidents of the five sororities are automatically named official representatives to the women's council, as well as two other members from each group. The men's group consists of two elected representatives from each fraternity. Faculty advisers for the Councils OFFICERS OF THE MEN,S COUNCIL 1'ilAI'ff SH11r.fI1fl' Sfromf Sf'N1!'ffl'I' Lysmx' K.

Completed in November, the two-story edifice is built of Silverdale stone, and is the first on the Row to provide living quarters for a housemother and out-of-town members. In March Alpha Tau proud- ly displayed the new home to admiring faculty, students, and friends at an open house party. History of the sorority dates back to the fall of 1909 when ten members of Sorosis, then a campus literary society, and IQ others met with Miss Flora Clough, dean of women at Fairmount. Meetings were held on the top floor of old Fairmount Hall until shortly after the close of World War I, when the Alpha Tau's bought their first home, a small brown bungalow north of the present Commons, formerly used as Army quarters. This was the sororityls home until last year, when the site for the new house was purchased. Early last fall Miss Eva Hangen replaced Mrs. Edwin A. Beito as sorority sponsor. Social functions this year included the K'Star Re- vieww honoring new pledges, a Christmas formal at the Allis ballroom, an initiation dinner for new actives, and the traditional spring formal dinner-dance at Crest- view. The annual style show, an informal dance and buffet dinner, weekly luncheons at the sorority house, and fraternity serenades added color to an eventful year. Alpha Tau's ranked high among campus leaders. Shirley Bishop was May Queen, president of Pi Beta Chi, a Blue Key woman, member of the Y.W.C.A. cabinet and the women's honor group, and was listed in Who's Who. Mary Hege was president of the Pan Hellenic Council, secretary of the Board of Student Publications. Dorothy Thompson, was Betty Coed , Blue Key woman, and senior class treasurer. Dorothy Kinsella was Kappa Delta Pi president. Ann Neff was president of the Rifle Club, vice-president of the W.R.A., and was listed in Whols Who. ' Annabelle Dean was selected as Typical Freshman Woman'l, and was president of the freshman Y.W.C.A. Mary Lou Southworth was sophomore class secretary, while Mickey McCoy, best all-around pledge, was vice- president of the freshman class. Ruth Baird served as Wheaties treasurer, and was a member of the Y.W.C.A. cabinet. Peggy Archer held a post on the Student Council, Alma Louise Gray was secretary of University Players and Suzanne Gay was junior class treasurer. At mid-year, Betty Ann McClure was added to the pledge class.

At the annual Christmas dinner-dance at the Broadview Hotel, speakers recalled the time in 1916 when six Fairmount College coeds . . . three from Alpha Tau Sigma and three from Sorosis . . . met in Fiske Hall to organize the new society. Meetings were held in old Morrison Library until 1931, when the sorority oc- cupied its present home at I752 Fairmount. In striking contrast to the small group of girls who met in 1916, the membership rolls of Delta Omega now list 35 actives and eight pledges. Mrs. Clayton Henri Staples has been sponsor of the sorority since the death in 1936 of Miss Elizabeth Sprague, who had assisted in organiz- ing the group. Bright spots on Delta Omega's social calendar this year began with a 4'Hit Review dance to introduce new pledges to the campus. Following the anniversary formal at Christmas, came an informal date party. Fitting finale to a successful year was the annual Black and VVhite Ball at which May Queen Shirley Bishop and her attendants were honored. Frequent luncheons, teas, book reviews, and alumnae activities attracted campus attention to the sorority. At mid-year three new pledges were added to the growing sorority. They were Betty Hart, Dixie Lee Long, and Pat Malone. From Delta Omega many campus organizations chose their officers and leaders. First semester prexy Harriet Porter was treasurer of the Student Council, society editor and managing editor of the Sunflower, president of Matrix, vice-president of both Y.W.C.A. and VVheaties, was listed in Who's VVho, and was a Blue Key woman. Mary Dyer served as treasurer of the senior class. Mary-lane Merrill was a member of the Pan Hellenic Council and the Y.W.C.A. cabinet. Two D.O.'s, Anna Louise Rowan and Betty Foster, were members of the women's rifle team which won first place in the tournament at Kemper Military Acad- emy. Delta Omegals own rifle squad took top honors in the campus rifle competition. Ruth Marshall repre- sented the sorority as intramural manager, won first in badminton. She was also president of the Pan Hellenic Council. Mary Kay Iones and Shirleydean Ladd were elected vice-president and treasurer, respectively, of the Young Republicans Club. President of this yearls pledge class, Ruth Mayfield was presented with a jeweled pin guard for outstanding scholarship in the pledge group. Se- lected as best all-around pledge was Wynema Fitts. .

Bakkum. A University charter Was granted to the organization in March, IQ28, and in the fall of that year Kappa Rho settled in its first home at 1750 Fairmount. It remained there until last year, when its members took over the former home of Sorosis at 1704 N. Holyoke. Constitutionally limited to a membership of 25, Kappa Rho now nears the limit with a roll of 20 actives and four pledges. Sponsor and advisor of the group is Mrs. Robert G. Mood. First social event to be sponsored by Kappa Rho this vear was a pledge dance, to which the title and theme Pumpkin Prom added a touch of autumn. At Yule- tide the sorority held its formal Christmas Ball, and members were hostesses at a children's Christmas party which has become an annual event in Kappa Rho's program of service. L'Blackout Partyw was the clever name for a sport dance early in the new year. As a tribute to the originators of Kappa Rho a founders' day dinner was held February I2 at Innes Tea Room, While a formal dinner in the spring ended a year of sorority progress. At mid-year, three girls were pledged. They were Norma Deupree, Priscilla Hoehle, and Virginia Row- ley. This year Kappa Rhos were leaders in many campus organizations. Elfa Ioy Stahl, first semester president, was on the Y.W.C..A. cabinet, was Pan Hellenic repre- sentative, was listed in Wl1o's VVho, and was selected as a Blue Key woman. Kappa Rho's second semester president, Iune Watte1's, Was a Pan Hellenic represen- tative. Margaret Hiner Was a member of Kappa Delta Pi. Marjorie Graham, the sorority's vice-president. was a member of the Y.W.C.A. cabinet, and on the Student Forum .Advisory Board. Billie Phillips Was one of the sorority rush captains, and sergeant-at-arms of Wheaties. Also a rush captain, Iean Humphrey was vice-president of Orchesis, modern dance sorority. Glen- nis Metz was a member of the Wheaties board. sec- retary of Pan Hellenic Council, and sports manager for Kappa Rho. Carol VVhitehead was Pan Hellenic representative. Heading the pledge class was Mildred Conrad and Barbara Watson was selected by the soror- ity as best all-around pledge. Other Kappa Rhos were members of Y.W.C.A., Kappa Delta Pi, Home Economics club, Matrix, Young Republicans Club, Student Forum, Wheaties, W.R.A., and Orchesis. . ff' - 00 Q09 8.

In that year Miss Flora Clough met witl1 nine coeds to organize a literary society which they named Sorosis. Since that time the sorority has provided the nucleus for four of the five Greek sorori- ties, with enough left over to record SQ actives and 29 pledges on its own membership rolls this year. In the summer of 1940 Sorosis' colonial-style brick home on Clough Place was completed, and the members vacated their former home at 1704 North Holyoke. Mrs. Worth A. Fletcher is sponsor of the sorority. A pledge dance started off the social year with the novel theme of HSilhouettes from the Future. At Christmas a formal dinner-dance was held at the Lassen Hotel, followed by a novelty dance, dubbed 'kPar-a- dice Polkaf' A moon theme was used at the spring semi-formal, wl1ich wound up the year's activities. Other functions during the year included a luncheon given in honor of the Homecoming Queen, a musical fashion show, a Mothers' Day tea, and a father-daugh- ter banquet. At Christmas Sorosis carolers serenaded the homes of faculty and fraternities. For an outstanding record in scholarship the sorority was awarded possession of the silver tea service, peren- nial University prize. First place went to Sorosis for its skit at Hippodrome, and for peddling the most tickets to the Student Forum and Hippodrome. Many members of the sorority held responsible positions in campus leadership. Kathleen Hitchner was recording secretary for the Student Forum, was selected a Blue Key woman, was listed in Wl1o's Who, and was a member of the womenis honor group. Lois Shelton was president of both Orchesis and VN7.R.A. and was named a Blue Key woman. Betty Ruth Charles was Honorary Colonel and a Blue Key woman. Ethel Iane Myers served as president of University Players, secretary of the Student Council, was listed in Who's Who, was a Blue Key woman, and a member of the women's honor group. For the second consecutive year a member of Sorosis was selected as Parnassus Queen. The 1942 title was bestowed by Bandleader Al Donahue on freshman Heloise Hillbrand at the record-breaking Parnassus Coronation Varsity. Into positions of prominence went Iean Stoll as president of the Young Republicans Club, lean Kimel as a member of the Student Council, and Frances Blume, as general intramural manager for women. Carolyn Morris was Sweet Varsity Sue. C004 C 0' O if 'A' ir 'cc cc -Af -pf if C C I C C Ulfweu 1 i1'xI .S'z'l11r'flz'r' .Yzfrolzrf S!l7It'J'ft'l' Kx'l1l1.1 1 N H1 rfiixi R ., l'1'f',-'iffwll , . .

In 1916, members of the fraternity adopted the Greek letters Phi Lambda Psi, but the old name of the Webster literary society had already become wide- ly recognized, and has stuck ever since. Immediately after the incorporation of the University of Wichita in 1926, Webster received a new charter, which it still retains. The fraternity has occupied several residences during its existence, including a former president's home on the campus, but it had no permanent home until 1940, when its mammoth home on Fraternity Row was completed. Webster social events began early in the fall with the annual '4Barn Dance, followed by a banquet honor- ing Homecoming Queen Norma Webb. On November 7 the fraternity celebrated its forty-seventh anniver- sary at a Founders, Day Stagfl At Christmas the annual Christmas formal was held. The second semester opened with a formal initiation dinner for new actives. Then came the fabulous Heidelberg party, and informal spring party, many date luncheons, sorority serenades, and several picnics. Pledged to Webster colors at mid-year were Gene Anderson, Charles Chaffin, Lester Goldstein, Iohn Newman, George Taylor, and Bill Wilson. VVebster attracted nationwide collegiate comment during the year with the adoption of g'Work Weekl' for pledges, a drastic change in policy which abolished the outmoded HHell Weekv in favor of a more practical program of pledge duties. Lyman Smith, president both semesters, headed the Pan Hellenic Council during the first semester, and was elected treasurer during the second. He was among the fifteen senior men honored at the HYM Ball. Quentin Blackwell was a member of Delta Ep- silon. Iohn Megaffin won honors for the Shocker debate squad, and served as vice-president of the ln- ternational Relations Club. lack Howse was student manager of the R.O.T.C. Band. He and Bill Mandle were members of the Sunflower advertising staff. Websters participated also in intramural sports, Aesculapius, Y.M.C.A., Newman Club, Colophon, rifle team, Whock, Varsity Committee, and many other student activities. Honorary members include Dean Frank Neff, Dean Leslie B. Sipple, Dean Arthur Hoare, Prof. George Wilner, Roy W. Elliott, and W. M. G. Howse. Dr. Lloyd McKinley is fraternity sponsor, and Mrs. Carl Kennedy is housemother. . ,f .fcff X . .19 .

The girls completed furnishing of the I.S.A. house, campus cottage, formerly known as tl1e Brig,,' given to the Independent girls in the spring of 1941 for tl1eir use. The words and music of To the I.S.A. were written by lim I-Iardie and adopted as the official song of the University group. The I.S.A. Reporter, Indepen- dent news sheet, was published bi-monthly.

At every game a section of black-and-yellow sweatered Coeds waved pompoms and lifted their voices in school yells and encouragement to the team. Between the halves VVheaties and W'hock cooperated in putting on several clever stunts. The first all-school pep rally was sponsored by Wheaties at the beginning of the school year. At this rally Wheaties Queen, Betty Alford, was presented. Chosen by the 1941 varsity football squad, Miss Alford of the I.S.A. was crowned by Bert Hayes, grid captain. The proceedings of the rally were broad- cast over Radio Station KANS. At the same meeting Cheerleaders Betty Par- rott and Louise Bartholomew were selected. Later Betty Israel was added to the team of eye-filling yell leaders. Throughout the year the club held monthly dinner meetings and the governing board met each week. On April I7 the annual Wheaties dance was held. At this dance the title of Wheaties Sweetie was conferred upon Louise Bartholomew, Pi Kappa Psi, who captured the honor by selling the most tickets to the party. In March, representatives of Wheaties attended the convention of Phi Sigma Chi, national pep organization, at Lincoln, Nebraska. Second semester board members included Betty Richey, Betty Penner, Carolyn Morris, Marilyn Wheeler, Mary Lou Shewey, Iessie Neal, Mary Lou Southworth, Margaret Schermuly, Barbara Watson, Delores Larsen, Margaret Parham, Ruth Mayfield. 'lr 'A' 'Ir 0 PAGE74 tit BILL SNIDER. . . ,.... President MAX Kocoua ...,... Sc'c1'etary AART PROPHET ........ Ti'ef1surer NOBODY knows exactly what it was . . . perhaps a combination of the newly-adopted yellow corduroy hats and a fighting football season . . . that brought Wliock, men's pep club, out of a year's hibernation early last fall. But all Shockerville soon became aware that W'hock was to attack vigorously 'fthe serious lack of school spirit, which it has fought for three years. Appearing early in the football season was Bill Walker's c'Wl'1ock,', papier-mache representation of the club's part-human, part-animal, part-God- only-knows-what official symbol. After a more or less dignified presentation be- tween the halves of the Washburn game, the W'hock figure was kicked around worse than a Shocker pigskin. During the season it appeared variously in the east stands of the stadium, on top of the scoreboard, on the roof of the Pi Kap house, and finally . . . alas . . . hanging at the end of the rope from a tree near the entrance to the campus. This tragic incident occurred at the height of the 'SGebert Must Go furor. The loudest cheering heard at Shockerville in years came from the Whock pep section at football and basketball games, as members rallied miraculously behind ill-fated Shocker squads that lost . . . and lost. Whockls plans for their annual chuck wagon feed and snake dance at the Homecoming bonfire were dampened by an unexpected snowstorm, but Whock spirit stayed crisp to cheer on the Shockers next day as they came within inches of wallowing over Tulsa. Stunts by individual members added color to Homecoming. After Wichitais one gridiron victory of the season, that 27-I3 rout of Emporia State's Hornets, the pep club exuberantly lead an all-school walkout. iii PAGE 75 orgasm IJIRST SliMllSTI'iR l.ois Sin IIIUX .......... .,. ,Xvx Niii . ...l'l'a'z' l'x'i' IIIYNINKL .

The organization is governed by a board composed of representatives of the six social groups, intramural man- agers, and the presidents of Orchesis, Pegasus, and the Rifle Club, as well as the officers of the Association. The group held a dinner in November, honoring the hockey varsity, and in the spring conducted its annual play day for nearby high schools. At the close of the year, a plaque was presented 'to the organization winning first place in intramurals. Miss Evelyn Hinton is W.R.A. sponsor, and Frances Blume was intramural manager.

ROWING despite the war, the campus Young Men's Christian Association scored an all-time high in paid memberships this year after a whirlwind drive in early fall brought in I40 members. The record figure placed added emphasis on the Y.M.'s avowed purpose of upromoting closer fellowship among campus men. To send delegates to the annual regional conference at Estes Park, Colo- rado, Iune 919, the Y.M.C.A. again joined the Shocker Y.W.C.A. in sponsor- ing the annual Hippodrome on March 27. All campus organizations participat- ed in the festive carnival, which filled the University Auditorium with slap- stick comedy skits, and Henrion Gymnasium with decorated take-a-chance booths. Hippodrome prizes went to Alpha Gamma Gamma and Sorosis for the best skits, and to the Home Ec Club for the most novel booth. Y.M. members on the committee, directing the event were Edgar Crum, chairman, Ierry Preston, and Bill Hattan. A portion of the proceeds was used to send next year's officers to the state Y convention at Winfield, April 24, 25. Edgar Crum, Ierry Preston, lack Greene, Bob Cope, and Al Munroe attended. At a ioint meeting of Y.M. and Y.W. on April 8, Philip Linn, Chinese student and representative for the World Student Service Fund, outlined plans for the campaign which the Y groups conducted on the campus this year, for the second time. A special assignment for Y.M. members was that of serving as hosts to campus visitors. Among these were Betty Iean Lee and Carrol Moon, repre- sentatives of the Student Christian Movement of the Rocky Mountain Region, who dropped in to discuss problems with the local Y groups. Dean L.

O PERPETUATE a new interest in its purpose, the University Y.W.C.A. chose the theme 4'Religious Re-interpretation for its 1941-42 program. Two hundred and six Shocker coeds participated in separate committees to project this theme on all Y.W. activities. For the sixth consecutive year, Y.W. packed the Women's Gym on Friday, February 13, for its rollicking turn-about party, the HYM Carnival Ball. Fif- teen outstanding senior men were selected, and each was dubbed with the title of a recent motion picture. The men included Art Prophet, Tom Kinkaid, Lyman Smith, Edward Armstrong, Gilleran Kendrick, Bob Iones, Iack Cole- man, Lee Roy Riley, Clement Zandler, Bill Snider, Iim Mader, Bob Allen, Phil McVey, Bob Snider, and Paul Hesse. Wally Marsh was crewned UBill of the Ball,', when date Eleanor Beth Myers sold the most tickets to the affair. Harriet Porter was H.Y.M. chairman. Other Y.W. events of the year included the Freshman Mixer and tea in September, arrangements for the Christmas and Easter convocations, the tea for graduating senior Women in the spring, a Mother's Day program and tea, and the installation banquet to honor next year's officers on May 6. Iack Coleman and Ethel Iane Myers were master and mistress of cere- monies at the hilarious Y.M.-Y.W. Hippodrome. The committee in charge included Virginia Randle, chairman, Iean Stoll, and Betty Richey.

BLUE KEY ACKLING major campus problems was again the program for the University chapter of Blue Key, national honorary fraternity, as it continued in its drive to make Shockerville a better and safer school. Underwritten by administration officials, Blue Key licensed student and faculty drivers with stickers placed on automobile Windshields, pledging the driver to care- ful observance of traffic regulations. No car could be parked on the campus without such a sticker. Even after tire rationing diminished greatly the number of cars parked on the campus, effects of Blue Key's war on violators were plainly evident. Christmas decorations, perennial assignment for Blue Key, this year featured a huge fir tree placed in 'kirir GILLERAN KExuiuc:K ,... . . ..... ljlfl'-Pl'C'X1.dl'l1f . . . , .Rt'l'01'd1'I1g S'cf'y ..

WARTIME necessities brought changes this year in both personnel and set-up of the University R.O.T.C. unit, as the campus army became an im- portant integral part of the mammoth American of- fensive. Organized into five companies and a band, the infantry battalion had an enrollment of 435 cadets in the fall, 300 in the spring. The blue star of excellence has come to feel much at home on the sleeve of every Shocker cadet. On April 23, Seventh Corps Area inspecting officers award- ed them the highest possible rating for the twelfth consecutive year. Lt. Col. Claude G. Hammond was Professor of Military Science and Tactics for the unit during the first semester. He was promoted to the rank of full colonel at mid-year, when he was transferred. Lt. Col. Horace K. Heath was P.M.S.8zT. during the second term. Assistant professors included Lt. Charles Dunn, Lt. Wallace Wilkins, and Lt. Thurlow Lieurance, Ir. Sgt. William E. Huxford, clerk, was replaced in the spring by Sgt. Iohn A. Lovold. Staff Sgt. Ernest R. Mylke was rifle coach and directed all range work. Highest ranking cadet officer was Lt. Col. Max Mc- Conachie, battalion commander. Major Bob Allen was second in command. First Lt. Harry Beal was cadet adjutant. The entire cadet corps shone its brightest on the night of December 5, when it paraded in review for Honorary Colonel Betty Ruth Charles at the annual Military Ball in the Forumis Rose Room. Selected by the senior cadet officers, Miss Charles attended all R.O.T.C. drills and was honored at many functions of the unit. Excellence in rifle marksmanship was displayed again this year by the Shocker rifle team, when, for the third consecutive time, it scored first place in the annual Regional Meet of the National Intercollegiate Rifle Association. First Lt. Harry Beal and Major Bob Allen were co-captains of the squad, and Corp. Ted Shidler, Corp. David Wilson, and Second Lt. Iames Green were members. The match was fired on the University campus, with the University of Nebraska placing second. The highest average scores in rifle marksmanship during the year were fired by First Lt. Harry Beal, 381, Sgt. Bill Hattan, 357, Corp. Ted Shidler, 38I.5g and Pvt. Bill Howard, 352. N New to the campus this year was the senior officers, practice in anti-tank firing with rifles and machine guns, and the performance of a squad of cadets in a precision drill and manual of arms, patterned after the famed Pershing Rifles. Col. Raymond W. Briggs, officer in charge of R.O. T.C. affairs in the Seventh Corps area was inspecting officer at a fall inspection and also at the annual spring inspection. For the latter, he was assisted by Lt. Col. Macey Dill. At the spring competition of the unit, held on April 30, awards for the best drilled company went to Com- pany C, commanded by Capt. Paul Kaelson, First Lt. Robert Morris, and First Lt. Iames Garver. The best drilled platoon was the first platoon of Company A, led by First Lt. Keith Reid. Company A's crack drill squad also took honors for best drilling. It was led by Corp. Francis Hesse, and members were Corporals Warren Lewis, Harley Riley, Gene Arnold, Richard Terrell, Iames Duncan, Frederick Nyberg, Bob Mal- lonee, Harold Iackson, Putnam Haddox, Ruse Mc- Carthy, and Ted Shidler. In the competition for best drilled third year cadet, First Sgt. Warren Tomlinson placed first, First Sgt. Harold Brammer was second, and Sgt. Iames Ralstin was third. In the second year event, Corp. Bob Hill was first, Corp. Thurman Nyberg was second, and Corp. Francis Hesse third. Best drilled first year man was Pvt. Paul McCreery, followed by Pvt. I. B. Trotter and Pvt. Richard Porter. Best drilled officer was Major Bob Allen, second place went to Capt. Harry Deck, and third to Capt. Iames Gardner. First Lt. Keith Reid was best dressed officer. The award for the officer showing highest qualities of leadership was presented to Lt. Col. Max McCon- achie. Outstanding second year man was Corp. Francis Hesse, and outstanding first year man, Pvt. lack Puck- CII. Honorary Colonel Betty Ruth Oharles was awarded a box of candy as the best-looking cadet of the corps, and a gold medal for interest displayed in R.O.T.C. activities during the year. Lt. Col. Iames F. Hill, Infantry Reserve, presented all the awards following the competition in Henrion Gymnasium. Prizes were donated by the University military department, the Wichita Chapter of the Mili- tary Order of the World War, Wichita Chapter, No. 24, of National Sojourners, Henry's Clothing Com- pany, and Col. Hill. At the close of R.O.T.C. activities in May, a War Department order withdrew all rifles from the Uni- versity armory. They were sent to the Aberdeen, S. D., armory for reconditioning and training purposes. Ac- cording to Lt. Dunn, They'll be back in the fall- maybe. R.O.T.C. OFFICERS shown in the group picture at top are: First Row- ' Lt. Col.

Officially known as F Company, Seventh Regiment of the National Society of Scahhard and Blade, it is the only military fraternity on the campus officially recognized hy the War Department. The company was established here in I93O, when a charter was granted to the former University Saber Cluh. This year there were I4 actives and I4 pledges, and the frater- nity occupied and furnished its own office in Fiske Hall. Lt. Col. Horace K.

To get better acquainted, the fraternity enter- tained with a stag party at the Shady Horseshoe on September 29. Later, during a windy drill period in November, red, white, and blue pledge ribbons were pinned on I4 junior men. On October 27, the local company joined with the entire National Society in celebrating Scabbard and Blade Day, anniversary of the founding of tl1e frater- nity. Betty Ruth Charles, charming Honorary Colonel, received the salutes of the entire cadet battalion at the flag-draped Military Ball, which packed the Forum's Rose Room on December 5. Keith Reid served as escort for Miss Charles, who later was honored at several Scabbard and Blade functions. Fraternity pledges received their official pins at a dinner-dance held Saturday, April 18, at the Allis Hotel. Formal initiation took place at sunrise on Sun- day, April 26, around the Scabbard and Blade flag- pole on the campus. The ceremonies were followed by a breakfast at Drolls. Following the annual federal inspection of the R.O.T.C. unit on April 23, Scabbard and Blade mem-- bers were hosts at a luncheon in the Commons for Col. Raymond W. Briggs, inspecting officer from the Seventh Corps Area headquarters at Omaha. During the past three years, Scabbard and Blade pledges have constructed from scrap metal a IQO6 37 mm gun, a .30 caliber IQI8 heavy machine gun, and an 81 mm mortar. These weapons were made to actual Army size and specifications. No wasters of precious ammunition, the 37 mm gun and the mortar can be fired with ordinary tin cans and fire- crackers. Pledges who were not working on these projects were assigned to build wooden rifles, meeting standard specifications as to size and weight. All work, except for rough cutting to size, was done with hand tools. Several men of the fraternity were detailed to make an automatic rifle and a Thompson sub-machine gun. With the addition of these weapons, the Scabbard and Blade model armory will have been completed. During the week prior to their formal initiation, pledges camped in military fashion in tents placed near the site of the new Shocker Stadium. AT 'rm-, Toe. Honorary Col.

Girls selected for membership must show interest and potential talent in the theater arts. Many of the local chapter's usual functions were called off this year be- cause of the war. Cancelled for the duration was the Omega Upsilon one-act plays contest, which in previous years had awarded a plaque to the campus organization whose play won loudest applause from a board of off-campus judges. A play planned by the sorority to be presented before the United Service Organizations Club was called off, and the funds collected for it were diverted to Red Cross work. A session of the International Convention of the sorority was likewise cancelledg the next will be held in Wichita in 1945. Social functions this year included several rush parties and a founders, day dinner May I at Drolls.

MII PHI EPSIIUN U PI-II EPSILON is a national honorary music society, founded in 1903 for the promotion of Friendship among students and graduates of Ameri- can colleges and schools of music. Elections to membership are made from the women students of the junior, senior, and graduate years who rank in the upper quarter as regards scholarship, character, and leadership. The society maintains a national club house at New York City and con- ducts a settlement school of music in Chicago. A quarterly publication, The TI'IiNl2g!C, and other projects are financed from an endowment fund. Governing power is vested in a national council and a biennial convention. The local chapter, Phi Pi, was installed on the University of VVichita campus on Iune 21, IQ4I. Semi-monthly meetings were held throughout the first year, and a total of eighteen members were initiated. The group presented musical programs at Robinson and Allison Intermediate Schools, and at Innes Tea Room. The national president, Mrs. Elizabeth Ayres Kidd of Chicago, was honored with a musical tea when she visted here in january. Several Phi Pi members were featured in University programs. Marv Iiby played a harp concerto with the Symphony Orchestra at its fall concert. Doris Marcum presented a piano concerto on the Symphony's spring concert, and appeared with the string quintet throughout the year. Glennis Metz was flute soloist with the quintet. In February, Matilda Gaume, off-campus mem- ber, gave a brilliant graduate piano recital at Northwestern University. Phi Pi sponsor is Mrs. Ruth Price. Patronesses include Mrs. Rene Gould- ner, Mrs. Paul Oberg, and Mrs. Lois WLICFIZ. Faculty members are Mrs. Thurlow Lieurance, Mabel Whitney Redfield, Ruth Frank, Beatrice Sanford Pease, Lois Ayres Gordon, and Vx7inifred Vlfalling VVood.

Program meetings of the club this year featured guest speakers from downtown business firms. Social meetings included picnics and a buffet supper. As a special war project, Alpha Epsilon members waged a campaign to save waste paper for defense purposes. Faye M. Ricketts is faculty sponsor for the group. AESCULAPIUS OUNDED in 1928, Aesculapius aims to promote fellowship and fraternity among students in the physical and biological science departments. Mem- bership is open to science and pre-medic majors. At informal discussion meet- ings, Aesculapius affords its members an opportunity to obtain specialized knowledge which otherwise their limited time would not allow them. Highlight of the year for the group was the formal initiation of pledges in February. Other meetings featured motion pictures, guest speakers, and a mock initiation. Dr. Hazel Branch and Dr. Clinton C. McDonald are Aesculapius sponsors. PAGE 89 0 HUME EEUNUMIES CLUB CHIP S AN adjunct to their classroom and laboratory training, members of the Home Economics Club gain practical experience in home management through discussion meetings and through parties which the group sponsors. This year the club held an open house and tea in the fall, monthly luncheon meetings in the Commons, monthly programs and socials in the department rooms, an open house for mothers February 12, and aided in Red Cross Work. Annie Gingrich was named as a delegate to the state convention in Topeka March 21. Dean Grace Wilkie is sponsor of the club. S HIRTY-THREE sons and daughters of alumni of Fairmount College and the University of Wichita formed the membership of Chips this year. The purpose of the club is to gather and organize information about the his- tory and traditions of the University. The annual Chip and Block dinner, at which Chips entertained fathers and mothers, was held in April. Other so- cial meetings were held in the homes of various members of the club. Miss M.

The group annually presents a plaque to the most outstanding pros- pective teacher in the College. Social functions began with a breakfast in the fall. In March, pledges were initiated at a formal dinner, and officers for next year were installed at a picnic breakfast in May. The chapter sent Dean Leslie B. Sipple to the national convention in San Francisco in February. Dean Sipple, Dr. Gordon C. Hanson, and Dr. Cecil B. Read are sponsors. NEWMAN CLUB IX YEARS ago the Newman Club, which is composed of Catholic students of the University, was organized with twelve charter members. This year it had an active membership of 95. Regular meetings were held every other Thursday in which an hour of open discussion was included so that different phases of religion might be brought up. To one meeting each month a guest speaker was invited. Parties, dances, and picnics made up the clubls social activities. Father Thomas Glenn is chaplain for the group and heads all dis- cussions.

MEN SBLEE CLUB OMETHING new for campus theater-goers was found in the light operetta Wildflower, produced in December by the Men's Glee Club in con- junction with dramatists from University Players. Written by Otto Harbach and Oscar Hammerstein II, uWildflower'l was the first operetta to be presented here since Old Fairmount days. Iames H. Barrett was musical director. Cast in 'gWildflower's leading roles were Edward Armstrong as the skirt-chasing legal eaglef' Larottag Kelsey Bodecker and Charles Terrell as Guido, ardent suitor to Nina, Ierry Preston as Luigi, George Hickok as Gabby, and lack Greene as Albuto. Betty Io Frederick and Arlene Tlade as Ninag Vir- ginia Popkins and Connie Cochran as Bianca, Mildred Lundy as Lucretia.

YUUNG REPUBLIEANS NLY organized political club in Shockerville this year was the campus contingent of Young Republicans, whose wide range of activities was remarkable for a non-election year. Founded in the fall of 1937, the Young Republicans first met for the purpose of offering students on the campus a closer contact with the state and national Republican clubs. By frequent discussions of political issues, by assis- tance to candidates for political offices, and by serving on election boards, the members prepare to take active positions of party leadership in future years. The club held regular Friday noon luncheon meetings in the Common's Pine Room throughout both semesters. Raymond Gates and Iames Harrison were chosen as delegates to the state convention at Topeka in the fall. At a similar conclave this spring, University representatives were Bill Hattan, Iean Stoll, Marjorie Woodin, Raymond Gates, and Iames Harrison. Gilleran Kendrick was elected vice-chairman of the Sedgwick County Young Republicans Club. Several outstanding speakers appeared at meetings of the club this year, including Keith Moore, president of the county Young Republicans Club, and Lee Meador, assistant county attorney. Faculty sponsors for the group are Dr. Henry Onsgard and Roy W. Elliott. PAGE 93 0 FlII'ff S1771 f'A'fl'l' Gii.L1LR,xN KLNDRICK . . . Bois '1's'1.iaR ..,..... ETHEL, Iaxii MYERS.

Rayxrown Gxrxs TIE VOTE in last springls presidential election, and repated calls from the draft board, left leader- ship of the Student Council in doubt during a great part of the year, yet tl1e work of that body in govern- ing the comings and goings of Shocker students was carried on smoothly and efficiently. Lloyd Blair, l.S.A., and Paul Hesse, Alpha Gamma Gamma, each held 712 votes when ballots of the 1941 May Day election were tabulated. Because of the un- usual circumstance, another election was planned for fall. However, during the summer Blair was called into Army service and the Campus party conceded the election to Hesse, candidate of the Shocker Party. Until the settlement, Tom Kinkaid, vice-president elect, had performed the Council's executive duties. Hesse served as president until early February, when he, too, was drafted. Kinkaid tl1en succeeded to the presidency and Tom Cannon became vice-president. Rain and snow played havoc with the plans which tl1e Council had so carefully laid for a record-smashing Homecoming Day celebration on November 1. Be- cause of the stormy weather the sororities and fraterni- ties abandoned the usual festive house decorations, and the monstrous piles of wood gathered for the tradi- tional bonfire in front of the Administration Building were donated to the Salvation Army. Celebrants ad- journed to Henrion Gymnasium, where the Council sponsored an impromptu mixer. KlliS CLEARED on the big day, however, and most Homecoming events came off as scheduled. Between the halves of the muddy Shocker-Tulsa gridiron battle, Homecoming Queen Norma Webb of Pi Kappa Psi was presented to the student body and alumni. She was introduced by members of the Home- coming committee. which included Max McConachie, chairman, Richard Dickey, Clement Zandler, and Gil- leran Kendrick. After the presentation ceremonies, which were broadcast by Radio Station KANS, the queen rode around the field in an open automobile. She was escorted by lack Coleman. Nearly every Shocker student was dressed in color- ful cowboy regalia throughout Homecoming Week. Cancellation of the usual football booster trip this year was a part of the Councils program to assist the R.O.T.C. Band in purchasing its new uniforms. The Emporia State encounter, however, was designated as the official booster game, and nearly loo students drove in private cars to watch the Shoekers win their only football victory of the year.

Plans for the May Day cele- bration occupied most of the Council's late spring meetings, and finally came to fruition on May 1. On that day, University morning classes were condensed to 45 minutes apiece, and were followed by athletic contests on the football field. Polls for the election of next year's Student Council officers were open throughout the morning. Cavorting Shocker men gave a hilarious preview of the May Pole dance on the Commons lawn during the lunch hour, and students danced at a free mixer in the lounge. Baseball games between classes occupied the afternoon. Miss Bishop and her escort, Chancellor Iac Cady, were presented during a musical program in the Auditorium on the same evening. Later they reigned at a gala semi-formal varsity, at which winners of the day's contests were announced. Ethel lane Myers directed all arrangements for the May Day observance. Assistants were Miss Evelyn Hinton and the four class presidents. Neither president of the Council made the customary trip to a national convention this year, the executives giving up the privilege as an economy measure. At the close of the year, the treasurerls books showed a balance of nearly 3400, which was used to purchase-you guessed it-war savings bonds. ADMINISTHATIUN POLITICAL power at Shockerville rested comfortably in the arms of the dominant Shocker Party, and refused to be iostled therefrom at any time during the year. The coalition, led by mammoth Alpha Gamma Gamma and including Phi Upsilon Sigma, Alpha Tau Sigma, Delta Omega, and Pi Kappa Psi, swept I4 out of I5 class offices in the fall elections Mary Ander- son, candidate for treasurer of the junior class, was the only victorious nominee of the Campus Party. Members of the party were the Independent Students Association, Sorosis, Epsilon Kappa Rho, Webster, and Pi Alpha Pi. Webster later withdrew its active support. Election of the Homecoming Queen was a non-political affair, but the Shocker Party again displayed its concerted power in February, when it won all freshman class offices, and all but one post on the Student Council. The ballot victory of Shirley Bishop for May Queen was another Shocker Party triumph. As a grand finale, it won every office in the spring election, placing Phi Sig Tom Cannon in the president's chair for next year. Gilleran Kendrick and George Purnell were presidents and campaign managers for the Shocker coalition. Clement Zandler and Bill Berkowitz were presidents of the Campus groupg Ray Gates was campaign manager. ir PAUL HESSE, ToM KINKAID ,,,...... President , ToM CANNON ..,.,..,,,.,..,..

GEBERT SoUTHwEsT1aRN By BILL HODGE N ERRATIC TEAM that baffled tougher opponents to a standstill, yet was completely outclassed by teams that have become traditional losers against Wichita-that was the picture of the IQ4I Wheatshockers, who left the gridiron after their Thanksgiving Day tilt with Oklahoma A. Sz M., much as they had appeared at the first of the season-losing. The final tally showed one victory, six defeats, and one tie. No one seemed able to provide an adequate explanation for the Shockers inability to Hclickf' It is certain that the team played one of the toughest schedules in the history of the Uni- versity, and against the best teams that ever played in Wichita. Throughout the early part of the season, Backfield Aces Bert Red,l Hayes and Don Hollar were forced to hobble with leg injuries incurred during pre-season practice. In other berths, players suffered an unusual number of injuries, and seldom were reserves available to replace them. Some fans blamed the muddy gridiron, which Wallovved the Shocker attack in five games, some blamed the coaches, and some tossed it off to bad luck that had to bel' for a team that had never known a losing season.

DAX'TCJN ciRANDSTAND PLAY TULSA PAGE 97 kia S- FUUTBALL DISCOURACEEMENT from repeated losses did not prevent the Shocker squad from displaying ex- hibitions of brilliant football on many occasions. Ex- perts rated their stands against Dayton University and Sun Bowl champion, Tulsa, as the most outstanding exhibitions by any team which faced those schools during the season. Opening the season with a night tangle witl1 South- western, the Wichitans were amazed to find a match in a team which had become a traditional loser here. The Moundbuilders' victory, the first to be scored on a Shocker team since IQ28, came with a field goal in the last five seconds of play. Southwesternls Iohnny Swafford drew cheers as he blocked a Shocker punt for one touchdown, and raced 75 yards for another. The final tally was Southwestern 16, Wichita 13. It was an improved Shocker squad that faced St. Benedict's in the season's second attraction, but they had not mustered enough strength to penetrate the massive Raven defenses. St. Benedictls won 7-0 after a long pass over the Shocker secondary by Halfback Iaraczewski into the waiting arm of Left End Steve Gergini, who dashed 33 yards to Wichita,s one-yard line. Iaraczewski plunged over for the touchdown. Failing in four attempts to score from their oppo- nent's four-yard line in the final two minutes of play, the Shockers were' held to a 7-7 tie by Washburn, an- other consistent loser. After a third period touchdown by the lchabods, Shocker Halfback Don Hollar, swivel- hipped 90-yards to pay dirt on the kick-off. Rotund Ray Volpe failed in three attempts to score a field goal. Hard-running Ioe Quinn of Dayton succeeded in avenging a 9-0 Wichita victory of the previous season when he galloped through the mud of Shocker Stadium to score twice for the Flyers. The Shockers 6 points were won in the first quarter, when Hollar flipped a pass to Hayes in the end zone. The score was 14-6. Fighting down to the last ditch, the Gebertmen fell only six points short of upsetting the mighty Tulsa Golden Hurricane, in one of the University's most memorable battles. The Shockers' bid for victory died SUMMARY after a disputed pass interference ruling late in the first half, when Tulsa took the ball on the Wichita eight-yard line. In the second half, a long pass from Halfback Max Kocour found Hayes crossing Tulsa's goal line. But the calm, straight-as-an-arrow passing of Tulsa's Glenn Dobbs scored again in the third, and left Wichita behind, 13-7. On New Yearls Day, Tulsa over-powered Texas Tech in the Sun Bowl, to win by the same margin-six points. After edging nearer to victory with each successive start, Wichita emerged winner in a hectic game with Emporia State by a 27-13 score. A sustained Shocker drive throughout the game led to touchdowns by Doug McEnulty and Charles Gibson, and a 97-yard sideline dash by Bert Hayes assured the Hornetls defeat. Cancellation of the Shockers' encounter with Mar- shall College gave Wichita a breathing spell before the dark-looming St. Louis game. But rain and snow dis- counted any preparations which either team had made. The game resolved to a punting duel which lost for Wichita when the slippery ball got away from Mc- Enulty's toe to fall behind the St. Louis goal, where a horde of Billikens fell on it for a touchdown. The final score was 7-6. Simply out-numbered and out-classed, the Shockers fell before powerful Oklahoma A. 8: M. in their final engagement on Thanksgiving Day. The combination of Fabion and Scanland, Aggie backs, netted 33 points for the Oklahoma squad, while Hayes pushed across two touchdowns for Wichita. The count was 33-13. The Oklahoma game was the last of collegiate grid- iron play for six Shocker stars, including Elmo Kelly, Bert Hayes, Lester Neal, Rex Bienz, Charles Gibson, and Keith Doggett. Kelly, Doggett, and Hayes were invited to play on the Kansas College All-Stars. The University Board of regents did not renew the contract of Coach Gebert at the close of the football year. He was replaced by Ralph Graham, former as- sistant to the famed Bo McMillin of Indiana U., in an attempt to bring to Wichita a coach thoroughly familiar with Kansas athletes. Fixrrfoiua ST.

Playing their first season under the tutelage ol' Coach Cactus lack Sterrett, the Wichitans opened with a disastrous five-game road trip which found them losing to Springfield Teachers, West Kentucky State, Morehead Teachers, Dayton University, and Marshall. West Kentucky and Marshall were rated as two of the strongest teams in the Southeast sector. Oklahoma A. Sz Mis high-flying Cowboys, nemesis of the Shockers both on the gridiron and on the basket- ball court, came to Wichita for the first home game and walked off the Forum floor with a 50-I7 victory. In the tournament at Emporia, the Shockers lost three thrillers to Maryville Teachers, Drury College, and Sterling. Later at Emporia they dropped a high- scoring battle to the Hornets of Emporia State. Despite their repeated losses, the Shockers garnered the city intercollegiate championship laurels, nosing out rival Friends University in two skirmishes on the local court. Between these victories the hard-luck boys dropped another to Southwestern. Wichita fans next jammed the Forum balconies to watch not a contest, but an exhibition by the University of Kansas, co-champions of the Big Six Conference. Most of the attention centered around K.U.'s Ralph Miller, who succeeded in breaking through Shocker defenses almost at will to rally 30 points for a new K.U. scoring record.

MCDONALD IINKINS STEINRE CURRY STRAIN HOLLAR HYNDMAN KINKAID KooNTz HESSE Following this 37-56 defeat, Wichita bounced back to smother the Ichabods of Washburn. Losses to Em- poria State, Southwestern, St. Benedict's, and an over- time beating at the hands of Washburn followed be- fore the Shockers turned in their fastest game of the season to win the finale from the Ravens of St. Bene- dictas. The losing season was not lacking in frequent dis- plays of brilliant basketball. Not a fast squad, the Shockers rehearsed carefully a tight defense and a rather slow but persistent attack that wore down stronger opponents and was probably the most impor- tant factor in the victories over Friends. Individual scoring honors for the season went to the Shockers' only senior letterman, Tom Kinkaid. Although out of play for six scheduled games during the season following an operation, Kinkaid smashed through for IO2 points in twelve games. Other high scorers were Bob Iinkins, Iohn Hyndman, Maurice Curry, and Paul Hesse. Hesse, stellar defensive player, left the squad after the first Washburn game on an Army call. Of the I3 players on the squad, only nine finished the season, and only seven were with the team during the entire season. Iinkins, Stauffer, and Burford drop- ped out at mid-season, and Hollar was out of several games because of illness.

The move came in a complete revision of the University coaching staff, bringing with it brighter hopes for the future of Shocker athletics. 0 PAGE 100 TRAEK ALTHOUGH several outstanding individual stars competed on the University of Wichita's IQ42 track team, the Shockers were not too successful in their cinder meets because of the small number of participants. Coach Eugene Ely was forced to juggle his candi- dates in order to have enough men to enter all the track and field events. Many members of the squad had to do double duty as weight men ran the dashes and hurdles, dash men entered the jumps, etc. Zimeri Cox, Lyle Sturdy, Don Hollar, Iohn Hynd- man, Harold Hamilton, Warren Tomlinson, Bob War- wick, Ken Iones, Otis White, and Bob Saft were regular members of the squad. Doyle Koontz, Tom Kinkaid, and Oscar Shaaf joined the squad for a short time and helped the Shockers win several points. Cox, colored sprint star, brought in the most points for the Shockers during the season. The bespectacled junior tied the school record for the roo-yard dsh in PAGE 101 1 the first meet of the season, and brought in firsts in three of the dashes in nearly every meet of the year. Other cinder-men who brought in most of the firsts for the Shockers were Hollar, Sturdy, Hyndman, Tom- linson, and Hamilton. In the first meet of the year, a dual competition with the Oklahoma City Goldbugs, Don Hollar, sophomore weight man, pushed the 16-lb. shot 44 feet 5 inches to break by nearly a foot the school record held by the great lim Bausch. Another highlight of the meet was Doyle Koontz' performance with the javelin. The junior, wearing street shoes, not in shape, and reluctant to enter the event, heaved the javelin 161 feet to garner five badly- needed points for Wichita. Despite such attempts, Oklahoma City nosed out the Shockers 66-65. Coach Ely took his track team to the Kansas Relays at Lawrence, and to the fabulous Drake Relays at Des Moines, Iowa. Zimeri Cox placed in the Ioo-yard dash at the Kansas meet, while at Des Moines a Shocker squad, composed of Cox, Hollar, Tomlinson, and Sturdy, placed third in the college half-mile relay. GULF heartening victory over St. Louis University kept the Shocker golf squad from sharing completely in the general catastrophe that swept through the schedules of most University athletic teams during the 1941-42 school year. Otherwise, the linksters suf- fered practically the same fate, with the same difficulty -lack of material to produce a winning squad. Members of the varsity golfers included Cahill Iones, in number one position, Edward Armstrong, Don Mc- Kay, and Bob Gensch. Iones was intramural golf champion. The season opened with a shutout at the hands of the Oklahoma Sooners and a loss to Kansas City Iunior College, IO-8, followed by a forfeit victory from Wash- burn. At St. Louis the team was overpowered by Washington University, 15-3, but a day later downed St. Louis University by a score of 112-62, to close a seven-day road trip. The rout of St. Louis evened up an old score of the previous season, when the Billikens trounced Wichita by an identical margin, 12-6. Cahill Iones won medallist honors at both St. Louis and Kansas City Iunior College. Later-season matches were tentatively scheduled with teams representing Washburn, Kansas City Iunior College, and the University of Kansas. These were to be played on the Wichita links. 1-.X TENNIS LTHOUGH its star and number one player, Bill Kessler, had not lost a match nor even a set this season, the University tennis team had thus far failed to defeat any of its opponents. The netmen lost to lfVashburn, 4-2, and suffered 5-1 trouncings at the hands of Kansas City Iunior College, Washington University at St. Louis, and St. Louis University. Kessler, a sophomore, was captain of the squad. He was city champion in the menls singles division this ear, and had been a member of the 'unior division Y 1 fi0LIfl',RS of the 1943 squad are shown 9 here as they were caught before an afternoon match. Members of the team included Bob Gensch, Don McKay, Cahill Iones. who held number one position. and lidward Armstrong. Gene lily was coach for both the golf and tennis teams championship doubles team in the two years previous. Howard Cutforth, number two player, and Dale Wallace, in number three spot, played their first season of varsity tennis this year. Wallace was a star gridiron halfback for Wichita, while Cutforth ranked high in intramurals. Bill Mandle, Sunflower sports writer, held number three position. He was a member of the frosh tennis team two years ago, which finished undefeated. ln doubles play, Mandle and Wallace played to- gether, while Kessler and Cutforth were paired. Late- season matches were arranged with the University of Kansas, Kansas State at Manhattan, Washburn, and Friends. 0 PAGE 102 MEN'S INTRAMURALS BY BILL MENDELL AN ADDED interest in intramural sports because of the war situation caused Dr. Laurence E. Morehouse, in- tramural director, to put increased em- phasis on a large sport program on the Shocker campus this year. A new system of play was instituted in team sports in the intramural leagues. For the first time play-offs were dispensed with except in case of ties. Phi Upsilon Sigma, out to break Alpha Gamma Gammals three-year reign as in- tramural all-sports champions, got off to a good start by beating the Gammas I-o to clinch the soccer championship. Badminton, in its first season as a fall sport, gave the Phi Sig team more points as Bill Kessler and Art Prophet, both Phi Sigs, finished first and second in the tournament. The two came to the finals by riding through a 44-man field. Bob Gensch, Alpha Gam, and Oscar Shaaf, Rambler, were beaten by Kessler and Prophet in semi-final matches. In the tennis tournament, Bill Kessler, Phi Sig, beat Ioe Brock, Alpha Gam, 6-1 in the finals to win the singles champion- ship. The Phi Sigs picked up more points as Kessler teamed with Everett McMullen to win the doubles crown. A strong Rambler A touch football squad, after starting the season with a loss to the Alpha Gam A team and a tie with the Alpha Gam B squad, came back to whip those same two teams in playoff games to win the football championship. A technicality near the close of the sea- son had thrown the league into a four- way tie for first place, so a play-off had to be staged to determine the champion. An inspired Rambler A team crushed the Alpha Gam A's 25-6 in the play-offs as Captain Doyle Koontz of the Independent team figured in all four Rambler touch- downs. The Ramblers won the title when they beat the Alpha Gam B squad 19-0 in the play-off finals. ' The All-Intramural Touch Football Team gave positions to Oscar Shaaf, PAGE 103 0 Rambler, and Pete Rowan, Alpha Gam, ends, Dave Christian, Alpha Gam, center, and Doyle Koontz, Rambler, Iim. Beckett, Alpha Gam, Howard Cutforth, Rambler, and Dave Wilson, Webster, backs. The Faculty team, making a comeback in volley- ball this year, beat a fighting Rambler team 15-13, 13- 15, 15-4 in a semi-final game, then whipped the Phi Sig team 15-0, 15-3 to win the championship with an undefeated record. Bowling found the Phi Sig team retaining their championship. Bob Tyler, Alpha Gam, was high in- dividual scorer. Fred Rhodes, Rambler, rolled the highest score of the season, a 192. For the third consecutive season the Alpha Gamma Gamma A squad won the intramural basketball cham- pionship, and in doing so established the remarkable record of losing only one game in three years of play. The Holyoke Wildcats, th e intramural leagueis highest scoring team, beat the Phi Sig A team 26-17 in a play-off game to decide the second place winner. Holyoke's high-scoring performances of the year in- cluded a 70-16 win over the Faculty, a 63-10 win over Webster, a 77-13 win over the Pi Alphs, and a 62-30 win over the Rambler B squad. Individual scoring honors in intramural basketball were won by Clyde Norris, Holyoke A's sophomore forward. Norris scored 115 points in IO games to lead the scoring, with Steve Stark of the Holyoke Bis fin- ishing in the runner-up spot. Bill Kessler, Phi Sig, Bob Hill, Alpha Gam, Hestell Nuckolls, Holyoke A, and B. L. Smith, Rambler, followed in that order. Alpha Gamma Gamma dominated the ping-pong tournament as Iim Kirkwood won the singles and the Gamma team of Kirkwood and Bob Gensch took the doubles title. All eight players in the quarter finals of the ping-pong singles were Alpha Gams. Kirkwoodis final victory was over Cahill Iones 21-16, 21-17, 21-17. A big upset came in the second round of the tourna- ment as Martin Noland, Alpha Gam, eliminated top- seeded Bill Kessler, Phi Sig, beating him 21-10, 21-16. The largest number of ping-pong entries in the history of the intramural sport turned out as 80 players took part. Intramural wrestling was won by Alpha Gamma Gamma as their star, Martin Noland, defeated all comers in both the lightweight and welterweight di- visions for the second year in a row. Phi Upsilon Sigma and Holyoke Hall finished second and third respec- tively in the tournament. Art Prophet acted as senior manager for intramural sports this year. Bob Gensch, Bob Sutton, and Doyle Koontz were junior managers. WUMEN'S SPURTS BY FRANCES BLUME U 'IlHIf'I1lS 1711111 llurul .lltznrzgrr FEMININE shrieks once more poured forth from the Women's Gymnasium on almost every after- noon during the year as coed sports enthusiasts of all campus organizations fought for the annual sports plaque of the Womenis Recreational Association. Evelyn A. Hinton and Gladys Taggart were women's sports directors. Hockey started the parade of women's activities in the early fall. The lucky freshmen were on the win- ning side as they clashed with the seniors and also with the Iuniors. Members of the hockey varsity in- cluded: Forwards- Marge Melton, Gwennie Beck, Ruth Marshall, Betty Long, Iean McClean, Halfbacks -Mary Ellen Long, Louise Bartholomew, Betty Par- rott, Fullbacks-Betty Iane Alexander, Pat Henning, Goalie-Carolyn McMahon. The varsity tangled with the alumni squad and Friends University, but could not go to the annual play day at the University of Kansas on account of flooded highways. Carolyn Mc- Mahon was hockey manager. The horseshoe tournament, first of the individual sports competitions, was won for the Vandals by Betty Long. Ann Neff, senior Alpha Tau, won second, and Wynema Fitts placed third. Volleyball, the friendliest of all women's sports, ap- peared next on the calendar, and saw the Vikings win the tournament with nary a defeat. Pi Kappa Psi and Sorosis tied for second place. Members of the volley- ball varsity included Betty Iane Alexander, Mary Baker, Louise Bartholomew, Frances Blume, Faye Elledge, lean McClean, and Lois Shelton. Betty Richey and Mary Iayne Brennan were chosen as substitutes. Ruth Marshall, Delta Omega's intramural manager, copped first place in the badminton play. Two fresh- men, Edith Hedges and Louise Bartholomew, both representing Pi Kappa Psi, nosed out a field of many old consistent champions to place second and third, respectively. Finally, after four long years, the ping-pong tour- nament was NOT won by the Alpha Taus. Little Gwennie Beck, of the Viking tribe, breezed along de- spite the defending champs' efforts, and captured first place with points to spare. Betty Richey, Pi Kappa Psi, placed second, and Mildred Lundy, Alpha Tau flt looks as if they just can? be kept out of it some- wherelj was third. The bowling competition was dominated by the Vikings, with Pi Kappa Psi close behind in second place, and Delta Omega trailing in third. The tourna- ment was uneventful, save for the tragedy of the un- identified beginner who forgot to let go of the ball, and found herself sprawling down the maples. 0 PAGE 104 Induhitahly, the Delta Cmega clan still holds its 1-A priority rating when it comes to rifle tournaments. This year they won first place for the fifth consecutive time. Pi Kap was second and Alpha Tau was third. But, on the other hand, mayhe the whole school was lucky with the .22 cali- her shootin' irons. The women's rifle team did themselves proud in the meet at Kemper Military Academy, where, against the toughest competition ever, they walked away with a truck load of medals and, incidentally, first place. Memhers of the team were Betty Lou Haire, Carolee Wilkins, Clarine Griffin, Betty Foster, and Anna Louise Rowan. Miss Rowan merited the title of team captain for next year hy shooting the highest average score of all the girls in the Rifle Cluh. Ann Neff was president of the cluh this year. Oh yes, hefore we forget-that Kemper fracas was held on Friday, February 13, and this was the ll11'1'lec'1zZh year of com- petitionl Carolee Wilkins was captain of the team, and Staff Sgt. Ernest R. Mylke was coach. The Vikings continued their list of victories hy placing first in the haskethall tourney. Pi Kappa Psi and Alpha Tau were second and third. Memhers of the varsity included: Forwards-Gwennie Beck, Mary Anna Loughridge, and Mil- dred Lundy, Guards-Betty Parrott, lean McClean, and Ruth Baird, Alternates- Betty lane Alexander and Louise Bar- tholomew. Ruth Baird was haskethall manager. Sorosis took honors in swimming. huild- ing up a total of 44 points in a splash meet held at the East High pool April 28. Delta Omega placed second with 352 points, and Pi Kappa Psi came in third with goLQ. Un March 28, the coed athletes were hostesses to 80 girls from nearhv high schools at the annual VV.R.A. playday. Managed this year hy Ruth Marshall, the events of the day followed a novel Mexican theme. The yearhook goes to press with the winner of the sports plaque still a matter for guesswork, and the outcome of the other spring toutnaments-hasehall, arch- ery, and tennis fthe golf tourney was cancelledj-eagerly awaited. Come, come, girls-this suspense is killing us. PAGE 105 Q CLASSES RMY calls and defense work lowered enroll- 111ent in all University classes, as they did at all the nation's schools.

In the first place-this picture proves that Phil did not work all of the time. lt furthers the theory that the average mental age is about thirteen years. It proves that editing your Pornassus is just one sweet merry-go-round that gets your feet off the ground, warps your background and requires effort to keep your balance-all of which adds up to making you appear a little awkward. We've been going round and round with Phil all year and it has been fun. Our job is PROVING THINGS with pictures. MID-CONTINENT ENGRAVING CO.

The Real Metropolitan Store of Wichita and the Southwest You 've learned more in your four years at Wichita University than the lessons from yoiu- books and your classes. You've learned the value of many things - of study, of leisure, or friendly contacts. And you've learned, too, that careful shopping is an economic necessity, no matter what your financial status. And we have no doubt that you've learned that Wichita shops at Innes - because this is one of America's great stores - because the quality is high, the selection is wide and varied, and the prices are always fair and honest. Innes is proud of its friends in Wichita University, and pledges anew the same service that gained these friends.

Wonder what we're worth on the hoof? lust in case loe doesn't know, it cost his country S211 to equip him. Multi- ply that by an army, and you have a tidy sum of money. We ought to know. Over 2,400,000 Joes could be completely outfitted with the S5l0,000,000 which Ameri- ca's electric power companies paid in taxes last year. A little mental arithmetic will show you that that's much more than a million dollars a day! We're glad our stake in Democracy is so large. The freedom America's fighting for is worth wha tever it costs. Even though our taxes have been going up, our rates have been going down! Today, the average household elec- tric user gets about twice as much electricity for his money as he did 15 years ago . . . and we're trying hard to maintain the present low levels, in spite of rising costs. This record ot rate reduction is directly due to the careful planning of the business men who manage the nation's electric companies. They were ready when the war emer- gency came. Ready to power ship- yards, arsenals and plane plants. Ready to meet new needs with new construction. And tl1ey'llstay right on thejob of making America POWERFUL until a couple of million Joes go back to civilian clothes again! This ad is sponsored by 54 local eleclric companies--all producing power for America under American business management. iii' ' Q, 3 J :Xa 9 ii 1 1-11-5 O X, my AG kddldykffmlfdff Jdyli When you saw this ad in your favorite magazine, I'll bet you wondered how many rookies could have been rigged out with K. G. 8: E.'s part of the electric industry's taxes. Well, I'l1 tell you: If our taxes had gone for outfitting fellows like Joe, they would have tal-ren care of 5,800 soldiers or approximately two times as many men as are in the Kansas Regiment. . . Out of what you folks paid me in wages last year I paid 31,230,000 to national, state and local governments so that we could have schools and roads and parks and the other things that mean The American Way.
