By the time the '46 footlwull season opened 8,000 permanent seats were finished. Wlieri completed the 5250000 me- morial stadium will seat upward of 20,000 f8115. A useful and living tribute to the more than 17,000 World War II veterans from Sedgwick County, Veterans Field memorial stadium has been lauded by leading sports- writers as one of the best fields in this section of the country. It is more than just a football field. It is ideally situated with adequate parking areas and can be used for numerous other civic and public events. Due to its practical and efficient design its possibilities for the community are unlimited. When completed it will also house the University men's physical edu- cation facilities. as A1111 nm by Pun! The press box high atop Veterans Field has been compared with the finest in this region by many repre- sentatives of the radio and press. It boasts accommodations for 40 scouts and sportswriters, six radio broadcasting booths, a public acl- dress booth, equipment for three Western Union operators and a booth for motion picture camera. Features to be added include dark rooms from which pictures may be relayed across the nation by wire- photo, plate glass windows, a mod- ern kitchenette and facilities for television broadcasts of Shocker games. ..-4 Fisk Hall r 7 With the confusion in the Sunflower news- room added to the blare of musical instru- ments and practicing vocalists this year Fisk Hall would rate no votes as the quietest building on the campus. niveafsiiy Airport Many Shockers returning from the vsar took lessons at the University Airport to keep alive their interest in flying . . BECCMES INCREASINGLY AIR- I DED Now Aeronuuties The Department of Aeronautics was formally organ- ized in 1927 and, after being dissolved in 1931, was reorganized in 1943. During the wartime years of 1943-44 special courses were given in aeronautical engineering. Since the war the department has been working towards development of a four-year course leading to a bachelor of science degree in aeronautical engineering. With the cooperation of aircraft companies in the vicinity of Wichita the department now has under con- struction a 7x10 ft. wind tunnel, largest of its type between the Mississippi river and the Rocky mountains. The 7x10 ft. wind tunnel together with the 4 ft. now in use will give the University of Wichita a complete aerodynamics laboratory, and will be used by the aircraft companies for testing, experimental, and development work as well as for instructing students in aerodynamics. Another accomplishment of the department is the installation of a machine shop equipped with some of the finest machinery in this area. The shop is used for Page Nine instructing students in industrial courses, performing experiments for the University of Wichita Foundation for Industrial Research, used by private industrial and aircraft companies, and does repair work for other University departments. Also being installed for student use are laboratories for fluid mechanics, internal combustion engines, struc- tural testing, and electricity. Of approximately 500 engineering students enrolled at the University of Wichita about one half have some courses connected with aeronautical engineering, and are being taught by nine full-time instructors.

S, Henrion Board of egents Prior to April 21 when Dr. William M. Jardine returned to his post as president of the University of Wichita, the Board of Regents was responsible not only for general policies concerning' the University but it also became acquainted first hand with many procedures. During Dr. jardinels absence because of illness, the Board met as often as twice a week to decide upon matters, many of which would have been handled by the president. At the first faculty meeting of the year, the Board issued a statement which said in part: the policies which he QPresident jardinej has made well known to you will continue in effect . . . problems can best be met and solved under the administrative setup now existing. It is not the intent of your board at this time to create any temporary committees with special powers. The board will continue to be informed of University matters through the offices of the president and the comptroller. This long has been a satisfactory procedure, and the channels to these offices are well known. When there is need for executive deci- sion, the board itself will take action. The board is in complete accord with the University program now in operation. We believe it to be sound and workable . . . the extent of its effectiveness in providing the best possible education for our young men and women in the most efficient manner will depend upon the com- plete cooperation of all in order to insure the continued progress of the University. Handling all problems that came before them in the past year, the members have been able to deal effectively with problems of the physical plant and faculty in estab- lishing policies to take care of the influx of new students. most of whom were veterans. Members of the Board of Regents for the past year include Dr. R. V. Christian, chairman, Mrs. Justus Fugate, vice chairman and chairman of the ways and means com- mittee, Cecil A. jordan, secretary and chairman of the building and grounds committee, Frank Barr, treasurer and chairman of the supplies committee, P. K. Smith, chairman of the auditing committee, Dr. T, Walker Weaxfer, S. C. Brennan, Mayor Frank W. Coleman. Roy W. Elliott is assistant secretary and W. D. Jochems is attorney for the Board.

The faculty rose to a total of 158, of which IOS were full-time instructors. Securing competent teaching personnel was a primary prohlem. Instructors and classroom space were both at a premium. Several members of the faculty returned from war service to help the situation. To take care of the increased enrollment 55 instructors were added this year and the faculty is expected to he increased again next year. CiEOl.OCQY' -I, R.

PALMER, bead of the department! of logopedicf and director of the izmimle Logopedics The University of Wichita was one of the first schools in the nation to establish a separate department for speech sciences, and as an outgrowth of this section, H eezltlf Service Health Service Committee has charge of the over-all health features of the University, Primary emphasis is placed upon measures which help to produce and main- tain general health of the student body. The committee arranges for entrance medical exam- inations, approves hospitalization cases, works closely with the Veterans Administration, institutes clean-up campaigns and makes contacts with doctor's offices in arranging for student x-rays. A fee is paid by students at the beginning of each begun in 1934 by Dr. William M. Jardine, University president, and placed under direction of Dr. Martin F. Palmer, the Institute of Logopedics has developed until today it is one of the largest training centers in the country for the speech handicapped. Through its affiliation with the University, the Insti- tute serves as a training school for students desiring to enter the field of speech correction. Many students are finding this field, which offers untold opportunities for broadening of scientific knowledge, a challenge to their abilities and an opportunity to render a great humani- tarian service. Students enrolled in logopedics courses learn' not only theories of speech correction, but also practical aspects of the profession. Through study and observation of cases during actual corrective periods, the student is enabled to complete all educational and experience requirements and is thus qualified to accept a respon- sible position. This field is one of the few that is not overcrowded. In addition to its teacher training, research and corrective programs, the institute provides speech cor- rection services for veterans of World Wars I and II whose battle injuries have resulted in speech loss or damage. It was the first organization in this country to be authorized by the Veterans Administration to do this type of work. Out-units are operated in other com- munities under the institute's supervision, a plan which makes it possible to place the majority of graduates in good positions. semester which helps to cover the cost of vaccinations, hospitalization and examinations. During the actual examinations the staff is augmented by bringing in downtown physicians, dentists, and other specialists. The committee is composed of Dr. C. C. McDonald, chairman, three doctors, Dr. D. Cramer Reed, Dr. I. W. Shaw and Dr. Frances Schiltz, a representative from both men's and women's physical education de- partments, C. A. Bidwell and Gladys Taggart, and a representative from the R.O.T.C. program, Captain Samuel McAdams. HEAIJIAH ,SERVILE ffOMMlTTEEf- S'mr1d111g: Dr. C.. CI. McDonald. rhairmang Dr, D.

Still limited on the projects that may be undertaken because of the lack of equipment, the foun- dation has also made arrangements for the use of the machine shop, which is now under construction, and the aeronautics division's facilities. The foundation was organized late in 1944 when the manufacturers banded together to form a system of research laboratories that would help devise new meth- ods of production and improvements in their products. Under this plan the foundation is operated on a non- profit basis with the industries contributing funds for building laboratories and buying equipment. Each project undertaken by the FIR is carried on with the manufacturer paying only for the actual cost encountered in working on the project. Heading the foundation are governors who are elected for a six-year term with one retiring each year. Dr. W. B. Burnett is acting director. University faculty members who are on the research staff include Dr. Penrose S. Albright, head of the physics department, Dr. Worth A. Fletcher, professor of chemistry, Dr. Lloyd McKinley, head of the chemistry department, Kenneth Razak, associate professor of aeronautics, Dr. Clarence G.

I age' TIL'l'Illy'-fllfvt' CLASSE Freshmen The largest freshman class in the school's history enrolled at the University last fall with 1,467 first-year students filing through registration lines, nearly matching the total pre-war enrollment. The class of 1950, comprising half of the school's enrollment, presented a type group different from those of former years with nearly 40? of the war veterans in school from the freshman class. The large first-year group resulted in new pledge records being set by campus Greek organizations. With the frosh rule still in effect, many varsity sports positions were filled from this class. Bill Smith was elected president at the beginning of the school year. Others chosen to head freshmen activities were Gerald Ramsey, vice president, Dick Mullen, secretary, Charles Elliott, treasurer, Howard Current, men's Student Council representative, Kay Brown, womens representative. g Solbbommfes zmiors Seniors Discharge buttons from the armed services were worn by 70W of the sophomore class of the University. Many second-year students had been able to finish only one year of college before answering the call to arms and were returning to start their studies anew after long absences. The 948 students in the class second semester constituted the largest sophomore group ever enrolled at the University. Dick Hobbs presided as president of the sophs. Tommy Wells was vice president, Dorothy Stinnett, secretary, Shirley Hollo- way, treasurer and Margaret Ann Hesse, sergeant-at-arms. juniors made up the smallest class in the University, 285 third-year students having enrolled for second semester, of which 167 were returned veterans. In the election of officers Fred Bell was selected president, but when he withdrew from school a special election was held to fill the vacancy, and the honors went to Dave Christian. Both are members of the Shocker coalition and Alpha Gamma Gamma fraternity. Other officers included Beth Jones, Delta Omega, Shocker coalition, vice president, Kathryn Bowen Pruessner, Sorosis, Shocker coalition, secretary, Maxae Wells Fey, Sorosis, Shocker coalition, treasurer, and Linwood Sexton, unaffiliated, sergeant-at-arms. The Senior Class of 1947, the fifty-first group of graduates to leave the University, enters an era of threatened destruction-the Atomic Age-in a world tired by war. But the men and women of this class bespeak the courage and hopes necessary for the American way of life. During the long years of war, fighting men and women worked hard for the day of peace and spacious living. But the dreams of spacious living were shunted aside in the battle for an education-a battle that never played itself out through long months of rising prices, inflationary 'tactics, crowded housing conditions and jammed classrooms. Men and women, many with growing children, of the class of '47 have earned the right to accept the degrees of earnest citizens seeking the answers to the problems of a virgin era.

D orothy Bruce Directing affairs of the largest number of students ever enrolled in the University of Wichita, this year's Student Council functioned efficiently and tirelessly. Outstanding among the Councilis accomplishments were presentation and subsequent acceptance of plans for a new Student Union Building, revision of the old student government constitution, a ten-minute interval between classes and smoking at the ends of halls in the buildings. Student Council this year worked with the varsity committee in arranging for all-school dances and pep rallies to create school spirit, and in November, the Council commissioned reorganization of a men's pep club. Numerous charity drives were successfully completed under direction of the Council which backed the polio drive, the Community Chest campaign, and the Red Cross campaign. Student Council backed financially printing and dis- tribution of student directories, the appearance here of Charles Wiedman's troupe, nationally known modern dance group, and appropriated funds to send the fresh- men men's basketball team and the Sunflower sports editor to Denver for the national A.A.U. tournament. Authorization was granted by the Council to the Honor Women's Group to organize an association of all women students on the campus. Student Council very capably arranged the schoolis traditional social events: In November, Homecoming, annual grad round-up was held, the traditional cowboy theme was used throughout the celebration, which featured a supper and mixer dance in Henrion Gymnasium, followed by burn- Page Fifty-six STUDENT COUNCIL OFFICERS-Keith Fisher, junior, vice president, and Keith Oliver, senior, president ing in effigy of a Billikin, a St. Louis University football player, a snake dance, parade, football game, climaxed by a varsity dance for all alumni and students, honoring Queen jerry Baumgardner.

The coaching staff, bolstered by the return from the armed service of Head Football Coach Ralph Graham and addition of two coaches, jim Trimble and Ted Warren, was faced with the prospect of the toughest football schedule in the history of the school. With 55 new prospects reporting for the initial practice session on that warm night in August, the staff began whipping its men into shape for the season opener against a five-time bowl team, the Golden Hurri- cane from the University of Tulsa. The squad increased to 73 men, mostly green ma- terial, with only 23 of the number being veterans from spring practice. On the opening day of the season 64 players were suited up for the game with the Hurricanes. The Wheatshockers did not fare so well during the first half of the season, playing the toughest part of the schedule first. However, before the season ended the squad gained confidence and started winning, finish- ing second in the Missouri Valley conference. At the end of the season the team possessed a .500 average- winning five games and losing five. A record crowd of 9,000 fans saw the Shockers lose the season opener to the Tulsans, 33-13. Art Hodges, then a reserve halfback, was inserted during the first quarter of the game and scored the first Wheatshockcr touchdown. Losses were recorded for the Shockers against the University of Dayton, 21-0, University of Kansas, 14-7, Oklahoma City University, 28-0, and West Texas State College, 7-6. First victory of the season came in a Missouri Valley contest played at night in Des Moines, Ia., against the Drake University Bulldogs. The Wheatshockers won 12-6 after an 85-yard touchdown pass by Linwood Sex- ton to Anton Houlik in the final 15 seconds of play. This victory maintained a jinx of the Bulldogs' in- ability to defeat the Wichitans on the gridiron. The second victory of the season was scored against an old rival, Washburn Ichabods of Topeka, Kans.

The final score was 21-0. In this game the team rolled up 345 net yards rushing for the largest total of the season. Art Hodges ran up 197 yards individually for the sec- ond highest honors in the nation. The annual Homecoming game was played in Novem- ber on a rain-soaked field before the smallest crowd of the season. However, the Wheatshockers managed to out-mud .and out-play the favored St. Louis University Billikens, a team which they hadn't been able to defeat in five previous attempts. The game was won 13-0 with the Shockers taking second place in the Missouri Valley by the victory. After losing to West Texas State at Canyon, Tex., the team finished the season with two victories, one over the Toledo University Rockets, 13-7, and the other in the Thanksgiving Day game over the Arizona State Bulldogs of Tempe, 34-19. The Thanksgiving Day game, the season finale, was highlighted by a 108-yard touchdown run by Anton nation for the 1946 season. This game was played before the largest crowd of the season, more than 9,000 persons. With the season over the Wheatshockers were rated seventh in the nation in forward pass defense. Linwood Sexton, colored backfield star, was named to the All- Missouri Valley conference first team for the second consecutive year. Paul Walker and Paul Houser, two linesmen, and Art Hodges were named to the second conference squad. Art Hodges was the leading ground gainer in the Missouri Valley with 785 net yards gained while Lin- wood Sexton took second honors with 575 net yards. Sexton was also leading punt returner in the valley, playing nine games and making seven returns for 139 total yards. Four graduating seniors, Charles Gibson, Paul Walker, Meryl Burner and Bill Draut, were in- vited to play in the Missouri-Kansas All-Star game in Kansas City, MO. Two innovations in awards were initiated with the Most Valuable Player award made by Radio Station KANS going to Art Hodges, and Bill Draut receiving the selection as honorary team captain with the Alumni Houlik, which proved one of the longest runs in the Association awarding the trophy. sas- i 4 saf e' THE RACKS, THEY XVERE THE RUNNING ATTACK KVlL'i'ffllj1.' -lim Morris, Kenneth Hedrick, Art Hodges.

Page Sixty-turn ASKETBALL Playing the most ambitious basketball schedule ever attempted by a University court squad, Coach Mel Binford's varsity cagers outscored their opponents in all games played, but won only eight of 25 contests and wound up in the Missouri Valley Conference cellar in the 1946-47 race. The Shocker freshman team saved face by winning the Kansas A.A.U. champion- ship and competing in the national tournament in Denver, Colo. The varsity opened with a four-game winning streak, trouncing College of Emporia twice by big scores, whipping the highly-touted Emporia State Hornets 49-36 and downing Oklahoma City University as seniors Harold Beal and Keith Oliver hit six field goals each. The Shockers' winning streak came to an end at the Forum as the Kansas State Wildcats from the Big Six Conference beat them 48-41 before an overflow crowd of nearly 4,000, the largest college basketball turnout in the city in years. Entering the Emporia tournament, Wichita took a first round game from Phillips University of Enid, Okla., but was eliminated by Emporia State and Dakota Wesleyan. With Bud Weaver leading the way with 16 points, the Shockers played fire department basketball to smother O.C.U. 74-34 before starting a disastrous league season. Getting off to a bad start in Missouri Valley compe- tition, the Shockers, who had won second place in the conference the year before, lost to Creighton and Drake on a road trip, and after a grudge battle with South- western, dropped league contests to Oklahoma A. Sc M., Tulsa, Washington and St. Louis. First contest with the ancient rival, Southwestern, developed into one of the thrillers of the year. The regular playing time ended in a 39-39 tie.

Wfichita gave the 1946 national champion Oklahoma Aggies a battle before losing by nine points. They came from behind 42-21 to outscore the Aggies 17 to 5 in the last few minutes and give the Cowboys a scare. After losing a non-conference battle to Emporia State, the locals dropped contests to St, Louis, Drake and Oklahoma A.

Bidwell's cindermen completed a successful season. Shocker fans were treated to the exploits of four of the fastest dash men to compete on a Wichita track team together. Linwood Sexton, Warren Southard, Al Grouchowalski and Anton Houlik gave opposing sprint men trouble throughout the season. Against Pittsburg Sexton won the 100-yard dash in 9.9 seconds and ap- proached the school record in the 220 yard dash with a 21.7-second performance. Warren Southard won both dashes in the first W.U.-Tulsa meet, also turning in a 9,9 century. Grouchowalski, speedy freshman, won the 440 in the same Tulsa meet. . The Shockers opened the season against the Okla- homa A. 8: M. Cowboys, who had had six meets under their belts, and Coach Bidwell's crew came out on the short end of a 118-13 score. Only first place won by Wichita was scored by Dick Mullen, lanky freshman, with a 6-ft. one-half inch high jump. Following their opening encounter, the Shockers Wrestling Varsity wrestling was introduced on the campus for the first time in the history of the school last January, with Coach jim Trimble, former Big Ten heavyweight champion, directing the Shocker grapplers.

One of the highlights of the afternoon was the high jump in which Mullen soared 6 feet two and a half inches for what was believed to be a school record. After the thinclads competed in the K.U. and Drake relays, they returned home to re-enter Missouri Valley competition. Jim Barnthouse, freshman broadjumper, won second place at Lawrence in the K.U. relays. The Shockers swept all places in the javelin, two-mile run, 220-yard dash and 880-yard run as they whipped Tulsa 112-23 in the first meet of the year with that Missouri Valley school.

Even though the team failed to win a meet, plans are being made to meet some of the powerhouses of the nation next season with better prospects in sight for the Shocker matmen. - GOLF TEAMfLejf fa righf: Dale Fair, Tommy Trutieli, Coach Mel Binford, Al Littleton and Tommy Hanson. N01 I2f1'IlH'f'dZ Harold Hoffman Gag Enjoying one of its best seasons in recent years, the University golf team, under the coaching of Mel Bin- ford, carried on the tradition set last year when the Shockers won the Missouri Valley championship. After having their first two matches rained out, the varsity golfers opened with an 18-0 shutout over South- western as Al Littleton fired a one-over par 72 at Sim Park to beat Marty Sidener in the feature of the day. The Shockers piled up victories 16-2 over Kansas State, 1615 to IQ over Southwestern, 1515 to 25 and 175 to -W over Emporia State, and 10-8 over Tulsa. Al Littleton won several medalist honors, including a four-under par 69 at Winfield.

Top-seeded Charles Crum, Leland Able, Chuck Hickman, and the doubles combina- tions of Crum-Ray Bershauer and Able- Hickman all won matches. In one of the most exciting meets of the year the Shockers came from behind 3-1 with a rally to win both doubles contests and tie Emporia State in another meeting 3 to 3. Only singles victory captured by Wichita was Crum's 6-2, 6-4 win over James Clark of the Hornets. player remaining from last year's champs, was medalist in one Emporia match.

Harold Toevs ntmmumls By AL L1T'rLm'oN Intramural athletics enjoyed a big year at the Uni- versity during the 1946-47 season mainly because hundreds of veterans found it a wholesome and in- expensive way of fulfilling a lust for sports acquired while in the armed forces. Under the direction of C. A. Bidwell, faculty supervisor, and Dick Elving, student intramural ath- letic director, intramural athletics were run for the benefit of men who had little time or money to participate on varsity or city industrial league teams. Other intramural council members included B. L. Smith, Paul MacCauley, Dale McCoy, Elbie McNeil, jim Spradling and Sam Namee. The first event on the sports calendar was a three- game speedball tourney in which the Phi Sig's won first place honors with a 3-0 win record, Men of Webster won two of three games and broke a tie with I.S.A. by defeating them 15-9 for second place while the Independents took third place. A cross-country run was the next event held and was greatly dominated by I.S.A., who placed seven of the first eight men to finish. Foster of I.S,A. won this 3-mile run for the school championship, fol- lowed by Konecny, I.S.A.g Elliott, Alpha Gamma Gamma, Breth, I.S.A.g Hunter, I.S.A.g Oder, l.S.A.g Roberts, I.S.A., and Gilbert, I.S.A. Touch football was the next event with the 14- game schedule ending in a first place tie between Men of Webster and the Phi Sigs with records of nine wins and five losses each. The Gammas placed third in this event by virtue of a 7-7 won-lost record, and I.S.A., being able to win only three games while losing eleven, had a firm grip on the cellar position. Gamma A and Welnster A finished with six wins and one loss each, but A and B team records were combined to figure final standings of the clubs.

The Drugstore Cowpokes, an unaffiliated group, won second place with two firsts and one second, while the Gammas took third with one first and three seconds. Eighty men were entered in the wrestling tourney, the first of its kind on the campus, and from 20 to 25 matches were held each day until the field was nar- rowed to 16 finalists. Final matches for the wrestling championships were close with five of the eight matches going the full time limit. In the 155-pound class championship match, Ralph Park, a former state high school champion, was forced into an overtime period to win from Bob Pink- erton. Winners and their weight divisions were 121 pounds, Harold Toevs, Cowpokes, 128 pounds, Mark Durant, Webster, 136 pounds, Daniels, Webster, 145 pounds, Clyde Simon, Phi Sig, 155 pounds, Ralph Park, Gam- ma, 165 pounds, Bob Alley, Phi Sig, 175 pounds, Kenny Hedrick, Webster, and unlimited, Dale Bussart, Cowpokes. Final standings in the 14-team intramural basketball league indicated that the Hustlers, an unaffiliated team led in scoring by Groves and Bottomly, walked off with championship honors by winning all 13 games played. The Drugstore Cowpokes and the Phi Sig A's were tied for second place with records of 10 wins and 3 losses each. Men of Webster A team took possession of fourth place with nine wins and four losses, while the I.S.A.'s A and B teams were tied for fifth position with records of eight wins and five defeats. Other teams in order of their final standings were Comets, Webster B, Gamma A, Phi Sig B, G.O.P., K.K.T., Pi Alph and Gamma B. The Drugstore Cowpokes walked off with team scor- ing honors in basketball by running up 493 points in 13 games for a 37.92 point-per-game average. Top hon- ors for defensive play went to Phi Sig A, allowing only 241 points for an average of 18.54 counters per game scored against it. Individual cage scoring honors went to Dale Henry of the Cowpokes with 145 points in 13 games for an 11.15 point average. Daryl Spencer, Webster A, had a 9.54 point average for runner up. Other players scoring more than 100 points during the season included Banks, Pi Alph, Jernigan, Comets, F. Davidson, I.S.A., Kuhn, G.O.P., Sexton, Comets, and Dye, I.S.A.

Kappa Rhos have worked hard and had fun in many a campus activity, and meanwhile have gone steadily forward toward their near- realized dream of a shining new house on Sorority Row. Tentative house plans are completed and building is scheduled to begin early next fall. Seven pledges were proudly presented at the Mystic Ball, held at the Shirkmere Ballroom, October 12. Each pledge was given an engraved ankle bracelet. Homecoming festivities were gala, with a spread for visiting alumnae held at the sorority. Soon after, the active chapter members became the guests of the alums at a coffee, when a gift for the new house was presented. I-Iollyday, annual Christmas dance, was held in the holly-decked Commons Lounge with a gaily-decked tree and blazing yule log adding the last touches of traditional magic to the setting. Several date-nights throughout the year were occa- sions for Kappa Rhos and their dates, and early in the spring the formal dinner dance was held honoring second semester pledges. This became also a gesture of welconfe to Miss Eleanor McCormack, who became sponsor of Epsilon Kappa Rho at the beginning of second semester. Kappa Rhos, past and present, dressed in their best to attend the annual Founder's Day Dinner, held March 22, when the year's events were reviewed and friendships renewed. Positions of importance on the campus were filled by many Kappa Rhos this year. B. Cox was secretary of women's Pan-Hellenic Council. Merle Garten was a member of Student Council. Lois Burrell, elected second semester president of Epsilon Kappa Rho, was editor of Parnassus before withdrawing from school.

Phi Sig men have held administrative campus offices and have done much in organizing and controlling University functions. The men of Phi Sig have been its most valid attribute, they have taken the name of Phi Upsilon Sigma to many of the University organizations. Thirteen men from the fraternity were active in R.O.T.C., four of them, Roland Allen, Herman Struve, Bud Anderson and Bill Fox, were officers and company commanders.

The fraternity in 1943 became a war casualty with the majority of its members volunteering or being drafted for military service. With the war's end and the gradual return of veterans, jack Adams and jarvis jones, two actives, and Fred Beatty, pledge, began the task of reor- ganizing the active chapter while Abe C. Dye assumed leadership of the strong alumni chapter. Concentrating its efforts on reorganization, Pi Alpha Pi did not hold social events during the first semester, but with the approach of St. Patrick's Day the fraternity scheduled a semi-formal dance in the Broadview Hotel with The Shillalah Stomp as its theme. This event was followed by the resumption of the annual tacky party and several stags for pledges and alumni members. War service records of Pi Alpha Pi members show that nine served in the navy, eight in the army, one in the marines and one in the merchant marine. Pi Alpha Pi was well represented in campus activities this year. Jarvis jones served as secretary of the men's Pan-Hellenic Council during the second semester, jack Adams participated in several round-table discussions over KFH, D. Fralic was named manager of the varsity foot- ball team, Ralph Hearn was a member of the varsity track team, Dale Bussart won the intramural heavyweight wrest- ling championship, Lester Rosen was sports editor of the Sunflower and Parnassus and sportcaster over station WU, George Robbins participated in University dramatics and Charles Banks was chosen one of ten honor men at the H.Y.M. dance.

Since the organization of Webster in 1895 by Nathaniel Morrison, first president of Fairmount College, more than 800 men have been initiated into the fraternity. In 1916 the Greek letters of Phi Lambda Psi were adopted by the fraternity. Social functions of the year started with a Gay Nine- tiesu pledge dance and a Webster all-school varsity. The Homecoming Queen was honored by the fraternity at an open house and the first semester's activities closed with a formal Christmas dance at the Broadview Hotel. Second semester functions again featured a pledge dance on the Sweater Girl theme and closed with the traditional Heidelberg on the last day of school. Throughout the school year members of the fraternity entertained their guests at date luncheons, family nights, serenades, and held open house for the sororities in the spring. Many members of Webster were outstanding in campus activities. Eight of the starting eleven men on the foot- ball team and three of the starting five on the basketball team were Websters. Varsity team members included Tuffy Robinson, Bill Draut, Meryl Burner, Harry Clawson, Ed Stine, Earl Hamilton, john Stucky, Hap 108 Houlik, Kenny Hedrick, Fred Silverthorne, Paul Houser, Vincent Gott, Elvin Vaughn, jim Nebergall, Cy Sickles, jim Barnt- house, Maurice Mead, Bob Cather, Bob Simpson, Warren Ashmore and Al Grouchowalski.

Winnie Swallow Ss N an if ii: ox H ' The National Independent Students Association of the University of Wichita began the year with a mem- bership many times that of the war years. In the belief that the I.S.A. could better represent all the unaffiliated students on the campus socially, politically and scholas- tically the organization appealed in its opening mem- bership drive to those hundreds of people without social connections on the campus. Primarily a social organization, the I.S.A. has given to its members and to any others who cared to parti- cipate a series of dances, picnics, outings, meetings and programs, and a feeling of belonging to a group of fellow students with common aims and goals. The I.S.A. has sponsored three traditional dances during the year. The first of these was the Witches' Brew held on October 26. Then came the Barbwire Tanglef' a jeans and corduroy party, in the gym on November'22, and on December 21 the annual Christ- mas formal, the biggest social function of the first semester. The activities of the second term included the box supper sponsored by the women, the carnival sponsored by the men, and the spring formal, which is always the most elaborate dance of the year. played a large part in the political life of the Univer- sity as one of the organizations comprising the Campus Coalition. Acting in support of that political group the I.S.A. was instrumental in the election of Jerry Baumgardner of Alpha Tau Sigma as the Queen of Homecoming festivities for the year. The I.S.A. also participated in the Student Council elections in the hope of securing for the independent students of the campus more equal representation in student government. Finally, the I.S.A. devoted much of its time and resources to the Costello Memorial, the independent men's housing project. The Memorial is to be in honor of Lt. james Costello, an independent student and one of the first of the University of Wichita's casualties in the war. Under the capable chairmanship of Gene MacIntosh the memorial is nearer its realization this year.

Iliff' One Ilunzlrell Nine mfsities Top-notch entertainment was given University students by the Varsity Com- mittee's all-school dances, those night shindigs that gave that added lift after a tough exam or strenuous week of classes.

Cfeurgc XY'iIm-r. prufcwu ul drxmamc nge, Um' llumlrr-ll Tvn SEASG ' REVIEW The Male Animal The Male Animal has been presented both on the screen and the stage, and on both mediums it proved a hilarious comedy. Under Prof. George Wilner's expert guidance and with jack Chester in the starring role, it lived up to its reputation on the University stage. The play concerns the transformation of one Tommy Turner fjack Chesterj from a meek-mannered English professor in a small college, to a veritable tiger when an ex-football player tries to steal his wife fMaxine Moorej. When the braggart football player QWillard Welshj prances off to the big game of the year with Mrs. Turner, Tommy seeks solace in drink and decides to exert his male animal instincts in order to win back his wife. This policy of strength nearly ends in tragedy for Tommy is severely trounced by the athletic hero and Mrs. Turner decides to leave her devoted husband. Finally all ends well with the marital happiness of the Turner household restored and the football player vanquished. Stuck around in the main plot are a minor triangle composed of Mrs. Turner's sister, her ever-loving boy friend, and a college athlete, and the efforts of the elderly dean of the college to restore peace in his time. jack Chester was amazingly funny as the Milquetoast-dispositioned Tommyg in the drunk scene, especially, he showed his skill as a comedian. Chester was probably the most accomplished actor of the year, for he was good in any part. Maxine Moore, a newcomer to the University Players, made a nice, little wife. Beverly Butcher stole scenes with her charming voice and provocative onstage manner, in the part of the sister. Don Williams, complete with shaky voice and cane, satirized the whole tradition of the aged college dean, with his amusing characterization. And Ruth Shannon as Cleota, the saucy maid of the Turner mansion, was fine. FttmiQf Portmitf' Family Portrait was the best play of the year, through Mr. Wilner's faultless direction and Dorothy Stinnett's moving characterization of the leading role. It is the story of the last three years of the life of Christ, beginning in Nazareth just after Christ has left to begin His divine work, and ending several years after the Cruciflxion. However, the figure of Christ does not appear in the drama, for this is His life story as seen through the eyes of His family. Central figure is Mary, the mother of Christ, who alone of all the family, has faith in her child. It is an intensely human story, one which makes the life of Christ more understandable and more pathetic. It is the motherly character of Mary and the endless petty details and bickering of the family that make the play human. Dorothy Stinnett as Mary, was the most outstanding member of the cast, both by the importance of her leading role, and by her marvelous performance. In less skillful hands the part of Mary might have degenerated into maudlin sentimentality, but by a professional job of underplaying, Miss Stinnett kept her part on a believable level and so was largely responsible for the success of the play. The cast was large and in general very good. Eddie Sisk as Joseph, the brother, added just the right note of down-to-earthness and managed to keep a balance between the almost saintly picture of Mary, and the more base persons around her. Other fine performances were given by Beth jones as Mary Cleophasg Dr. Ashton as the ego- tistical brother, james, Beverly Butcher as Mary of Magdala, Clifford Peck as the bewildered brother, Simon, and Don Williams as judas Iscariot. It is impossible to convey an adequate impression of this beautifully moving production, one can only say that this play ranks as one of the best of Mr. Wilner's best plays. Petticoat Fever The play revolves around one Dascomb Dinsmore, ably played by Eddie Sisk, who lives alone-sans social life, sans women, sometimes almost sans sanity-in a Labrador wireless station. His uncluttered existence is interrupted when a plane is forced down near his outpost, and he suddenly becomes host to a beautiful lady QCharlana Taylorj, and her somewhat foppish English fiance CDouglas Conradj. Dinsmore rises to his social duties with enthusiasm, morning coat and a formal dinner. He even goes so far as to fall in love with his feminine guest. The plot becomes complicated when the local minister makes his annual parish call and Dinsmore's ex-girl friend fBetty Heftj drops in after a two-year delay in arriving. She makes it clear that she has come to stay, and the minister makes it clear that he wants to marry somebody off. This he succeeds in doing, by joining together Sisk and Miss Taylor, leaving Miss Heft to her beautiful clothes and the pompous orations of the Englishman. The story is the same old boy gets girl idea, but by virtue of hilarious situations, clever pantomime and excellent timing by Mr. Sisk, and extremely funny dialogue, the play became a highly amusing production. Eddie Sisk was definitely the star performer of Petticoat Fever. The first scene, in which he portrayed utter and complete boredom, set a high standard for the remaining scenes, and he lived up to that standard admirably. Charlana Taylor, a newcomer to the University stage this year, turned in a creditable performance as the heart interest. Betty Heft, also a newcomer, stole scenes right and left with her enthusiastic attempts to woo and win her man. While Douglas Conrad, the too-too English fiance, was excellent without ever having to degenerate to overplaying his part.

The chapter at the University of Wicliita became the seventy-seventh active chapter in the United States, and took its place among others at some of the largest universities in the country. The purpose of the fraternity is to advance the cause of music in America, and to foster the mutual welfare and brotherhood of students of music. Local objectives include the building of high standards of musical appreciation and achievement, pledg- ing support to worthwhile musical activities, and presentation of an annual program of American music. Faculty sponsors are Walter Duerl-zsen, chairman of the de- partment of music, Adrian Pouliot, head of department of piano, and Earl K. Hillbrand, dean of the University extension division.

Faculty advisors are Dr. Francis Nock, head of the German department. Dr. Hugo Wall. head of the political science department, and Geraldine E. Hammond, associate professor of English. Contributing to success of the Student Forums twelfth year were five outstanding personalities, George Moorad, Norman Cousins, Ellis Arnall, Carl Van Doren and John Mason Brown. Each speaker was met on arrival, and following his talk was guest at a reception for board members and friends. l'r:gt'0111' lll1Hlll't'tf Tlcwzfp'-ftzlll' George Moorad, Columbia Broadcasting System war correspondent and first personality on the University of Wichita Student Forum during the past year, spoke on Russia and the Iron Curtainf' He related his experience with Soviet censorship and Russian attitude toward the outside world, painting a dark picture as to the chance for global peace. Norman Cousins, editor of the Saturday Review of Literature and the magazine U.S.A., appealed in his speech, Don't Resign From the Human Race, for letters to senators to stimulate popular opinion for in- ternationalizing the atom bomb. Ellis Gibbs Arnall, ex-governor of Georgia, spoke following the governorship dispute in that state, to a capacity audience at the Vifichita High School East audi- torium. Following the speech, Whose Country Is This Anyway? the foe of Talmadge and the Ku Klux Klan accepted questions from the floor to help clarify the involved governor dispute. Carl Van Doren, Pulitzer prize winner tor his biog- raphy, Benjamin Franklin, and one ot' the 10 most important contemporary writers in the United States, stressed optimism for success of the United Nations as compared with turbulent union of the original I5 American colonies. The former Columbia University professor and journalist was also a winner of the Franklin Medal of the American Philosophical Society. john Mason Brown, newspaperman, author, critic and associate editor of the Saturday Review of Litera- ture, spoke on the current works of literature, the theater and the movies, touched on the system of education in this country, and criticised the reading habits of the American public.

Ryburn de- feated such teams as the University of Nebraska and Kansas State. Students of the air unit have, for the first time, organized into a military fraternity.

Eileen Cerney, Sorosis candidate, was chosen by the unit to be honorary colonel, and led the grand march at the ball. Miss Cerney was honorary commander of the unit for the remainder of the year. This summer the junior and senior class of both units will spend six weeks in camp. While there they will undergo a program of on-the-job training to better qualify the men as officers, 6l1 716lSSZlS This year marked the return of several peace time practices in the making of Parnassus, campus yearbook. But the largest Parnassus ever published did not become a reality until it had passed through many dark hours. Staff changes in mid-year necessitated extra work, and paper shortages and photographers' inability to buy Hashbulbs added to the confusion. Bob Monroe, busi- ness manager, withdrew from school and was replaced by jim Tack, sophomore, in january.

Sunflower newshounds had their hrst year of Competition with prac- ticing musicians, as the newsroom was moved to liisk Hall at the beginning of the year. Maxine Sargent was editor during the lirst semester, with Pete Greenbank as managing editor, Mark Stover, business manager, Kathryn Bowen, desk editor, and Elmo Reiff, assistant business man- ager. Lester Rosen edited the sports pages and Betty jacobs handled campus society. In October Sargent and Stover attended the Associated Collegiate Press Confer- ence in Chicago and brought back many new ideas. The following month a 16- page Sunflower broke the record for the largest single issue ever published by the journalism department. The 3,000 circu- lation of the weekly was the largest in the half-century history of the paper. Les Rosen started as sports editor again second semester, Mark Stover and Elmo Reiff continued to sell advertising and tight for space in the paper, and Betty jacobs moved to the desk editor- ship. Pete Greenbank took over as editor- in-chief. New staff members were added as Marjorie Meyers edited the society pages and Bill Mendell returned after a four-year absence to becoming managing editor. Roundabout, student gossip column, continued to claim the most attention as Betty Jacobs and Marjorie Meyers gave the lowdown on campus affairs. William Fein, Greenbank and Mendell annoyed people with their Typed on a Wednes- dayy' column, and Harold Kemper gave that added something to the paper with his timely cartoons. Del Kettler and jess Taylor contributed cartoons, the fresh- man reporting class furnished the bulk of news copy, and the interpretative re- porting class edited copy and wrote the papers feature articles. Staff changes took place the second semester as Bill Mendell resigned his Sunflower position to become editor of Parnassus. Les Rosen replaced him as managing editor and Dean Campbell took over the Sunflower sports pages. One of the biggest features of the year came April 24 when, in celebration of President W. M. jardine's return to the campus after a serious illness, the Sun- flower staff published a record-breaking 24-page edition. The annual journalism banquet was also a highlight of the year. Max W.

Mary Lou Hobson, Leona Snwards 61772 ZIS Formed in the spring of 1946 the Campus Coalition had Alpha Tau Sigma, Phi Upsilon Sigma and Inde- pendent Students Association as a nucleus. In fall of 1947 Epsilon Kappa Rho became part of the coalition. Mary Lou Hobson acted as chairman of the organi- zation. Campus party candidate Mary Virginia Mueller was elected May Queen in 1946. In the election of Student Council and class officers in the spring of 1946, the Campus Coalition candidates won one-half of the offices hlled. The candidates for oalition senior class officers from the Campus party won a com- plete victory, with Neal Potts elected as president of the class. In the fall the Campus Coalition candidate for Home- coming Queen, jerry Baumgardner, was elected. Campus Coalition emphasized in its campaign that it supported the Student Union Building, played a major part in writing a new constitution which would give unaffiliated students definite representation, fos- tered hetter relations hetween faculty and students and entered actively into all charity and aid association drives on the campus.

Bark YUHH' joyce Saunders. joan Bond, Beth jones Shocker Again this year, as in the past, the Shocker Coalition has carried on an effective administration of student activities within the University. It has done its best to encourage a more active participation of the student body in student affairs. The non-Greeks were repre- sented on the Shocker ticket in the last spring election and Linwood Sexton and Tom Wells were elected to class offices. The Shockers were successful in having three of their four candidates win offices in the Student Council. They lost none of the positions of men's representatives. The coalition is represented in almost three-fourths of the class offices. Even though the freshman election was supported by neither coalition all of the freshman officers have since joined the Shockers. Page Om' Hundred Thirty-one oazlition The coalition has a predominant representation in both the sophomore and junior class offices. The party was successful in its support of Dave Christian for junior class president after resignation of Fred Bell. The platform of the Shockers has been carried out to its fullest extent. Perhaps its greatest achievement was in its support of the erection of the Student Union Building. Advocation of a ten-minute period between classes has resulted in reducing the between-class-rush and less confusion at the beginning of the class periods. Even though the coalition holds a majority of the campus offices, it has continued to give the unrepre- sented element on campus a fair share in University of Wicliita government.

Young emocmts r Activities of the Young Democrats this year centered, for the most part, around the state election. In con- nection with this the club worked with other Demo- cratic organizations throughout the city. Election day saw many of the club members at work in various precincts in Wichita and at Democratic head- quarters. Officers for the past year were Louise Williamson, president, Bert Davies, vice president, Marjean Spencer, secretary, Mary Lou Hobson, treasurer. Dr. Hugo Wall of the political science department is faculty sponsor for the organization. The regular meetings during the year were devoted to informal discussions and to talks by outside speakers. Bill Warren, Dick Evans and Vernon Walling were all guests of the group as were members of the downtown group of young Democrats.
