Penn Letter C lub ESTABLISHED 1938, Although still relatively new as an active organization, the Penn Letter Club has at- tempted to again organize all varsity letter- men on the campus. All those who have re- ceived their varsity awards are automatically members ol' the club. At Christmas time they sponsored a Penn Varsity vs. Penn Alumni basketball game. Many of the former Penn star basketballers were on hand to provide the competition. As a result of this, it will become an annual affair. Those initiated at the semester were: Albert Shepherd, Dick Rabenold, Cwib Ed- wards, Cverald Hiatt, Kenneth Stanfield, Leslie Wilkening and ,lim Sells. Other members in- clude: Chuck Bainbridge, Bob Renaud, Cer- ald Andersen, Dale DeVault, Amby Dollar, Louie Dye, Herbert Heald, Eddie Ver Steeg, Frank Dillon, Bruce Harley, Olin Byerly, Robert Kenoycr, Pat Schluek, Vernon lwloeh- ring, Emmett Evans, Bill Bryan, Bob Roe, Lloyd Stevenson, Tommy Crawford, Bill Trent, Roy Clark, Eugene fXflcCormick and Harold Rubv.

The Pep Club has proven itself really worthy of its name this year and deserves rec- ognition for the loyalty it has manifested at the intercollegiate contests. The purpose of the organization is to promote pep and enthusiasm on the campus by conducting pep meetings and attending games in a body wearing uniform costumes. The past year the colors have been changed from blue and white to blue and gold in ac- cordance with college colors. The club has honored the athletes at the end of each season by entertaining them at special dinners. ln the Homecoming Parade in November the Pep Club float placed second, and a mem- ber of the group, Betty Edwards, gracefully carried off the honors as Homecoming Queen. The club is greatly indebted to the cheer leaders, Tommy Crawford, Moana Mclfarlin and Bernice Alcorn, for their enthusiasm and skill in direc-ting the yells,

l if l A rd AJ fofv-4 J., I ,v,p1.1,,f .ca lk .NV Band X W., f X. Tkjfkj sql 1918. ie!William Penn College Band of 1939- has probably been the most outstanding in the history of the school. Under the direction of Murray Baylor ably assisted by Orley Anderson, a Marching Band was organized composed of twenty- four students. They gave a most remarkable performance at the Central-Penn football game when they exhibited their formations at the half to the large crowd of Homecomers. lt was not at all surprising that they won the Hrst prize in the Homecoming parade, but those practices on a dusty lawn sometimes in exceedingly chilly weather more than merited this recognition.

The regular band played for several basketball games and accompanied commun- ity singing. ln February they gave a most entertaining chapel program including, in addition to group selections, one number with Ben Shepherd as solo singer. The German Band has been very popular this year at pep meetings and basketball games away from Oskaloosa where the regular band was unable to go. Much credit is due the freshmen for the talent they have furnished, and it is to be hoped that next years class will assist in building up an even more remarkable band. The three drum majors, Dolores Shauger, Beverly Briggs and Orley Anderson, are all freshmen.
