Each of us is a traveller on a journey, and herein you shall see brief glimpses- of the varied pathways each travels-from the nooks of Twin Ash to the realms of philosophy: from the test tubes of Bailey Hall to the circle at the Junior Prom-all combine to make a road which may aptly be termed the path through knowledge. And may we propose that we have here set forth-not too lightly, we hope-the route of this four-year journey, familiar and panoramic- Wilmington College. -2 REWOR 'fav- To Teacher Ellen, whose guiding philosophy and insight have for years directed many students on the path through knowledge - to her spirit, her memory, and her ever-living influence do we dedicate this, the 1937 Wiimingtonian. ...3..

The most outstanding event of the year was the initiation of J. Edgar Hoover, Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, as an hon- orary member nf Zeta Sigma Pi. Mr. Hoover made it possible for the chapter to sponsor its most successful Chapel Program by sending to us Mr. Harold H. Reinecke, one of the special agents of the department. Fifteen new members were initiated at the Fall and Spring banquets. Outstanding speakers brought to the campus besides Mr, Reinecke, were Miss McChristie of the Juve- nile Court, Cincinnati, and Dr. E. A. Baber, Supt. of the Longview Mental Hospital, Cin- cinnati. Meetings, luncheons, and a field day were also important activities of the year. Col- leges in eleven states, from New York to California and from Minnesota to Texas, now have chapters of Zeta Sigma Pi. There are now 15 chapters with a membership of 350. Several members of Alpha chapter attended banquets at Salem College, Salem, West Virginia, and Villa Maria College, Erie, Pa. Dr, R. D. MacNitt addressed both groups.

They keep us busy-the frats., the band, the clubs, the staff, the Senate, the Council, the team, the dances, the Proms, the Opera, but, oh, how we enjoy them. These make College utterly different from any other life. It is our pride in them that keeps them -and us-going. .-54i .qj 3 1 ,X Vx' 1 X JW, .J 'fi 1 in WILMINGTONIAN STAFF Editor-in-Chief ....,..

ON THE CAMPUS ELL WEEK QUAKER LIFE ATHLE IC Here, we meet a most popular phase of col'ege life -- athletics. This makes the purpose of Wilmington College complete- an educated mind in a strong body. -30- Q1 A I- 446 Q ,1ff' qw,-v ,ff f E139 BASKETBA THE SQUAD-Top row, left to right, Clarence Cordrey, Dave Lu- cas, Philip Kelsey, Lowell Starkey and George Steeleg Bottom row- Wayne Townsend, Herschel Orr, Robert Johnston, Steve Anglin and Bob Wearly. R. K. MILLER, coach LL Winning from such teams as Kent State, Otterbein, Wilberforce, Bluffton and Cedar- ville, Wilmington College's basketball team had its most successful season this year since Coach R. K. Miller took over the coaching reins at W. C. in 1934, winning nine games and losing seven and sharing the Northwest Ohio Conference championship melon with Cedar- ville. The highlight of the season was the 36 to 35 win over Otterbein, a quintet which was resting in second place in the Ohio Conference at the time Wilmington defeated it and rated as one of the best teams in the state. Two other exciting moments during the sea- son were the 37 to 33 win over Wilberforce in an overtime tilt and the 45 to 36 victory from Kent State. ln the final game of the season the Quakers lost a heart breaker to the University of Dayton Flyers, 40 to 39, in an overtime contest. For the first time in three years the Quakers downed the Alumni in the annual opening tilt, winning by a score of 38 to 35 over the former W. C. stars. Wilmington played a stiff schedule this season, having three Ohio Conference teams, Findlay, Kent State and Ottex-bein, and three Buckeye Conference quintets, Cincinnati, Miami and Dayton, on the card in addition to Wilberforce and the Northern Ohio Confer- ence teams. Coach Miller had four lettermen back as a nucleus for his 1936-37 team and with the aid of two freshmen the Quakers developed into a formidable aggregation, With only two members of the squad graduating and the six first stringers ex- pected to return to school next year, Coach Miller is looking forward to a strong team next year and already has games booked with Otterbein, Kent State, Wilberforce and Akron University. Q William Phillips and Wayne Townsend are the two cagers who will graduate and Robert Wearly, Dave Lucas, Clarence Cordrey, Philip Kelsey, George Steele and Lowell Starke are the regulars who will be back next year. Other members of the squad this year, in addition to those already named, were: Herschel Orr, John Thoss, Seve Anglin, Robert Johnston, Alexander Rhonemus, Robert Townsend, Allan McKay, Hubert Mc- Nemar, Heber Groves, Rex McMillan and Murray Bowman. -33- The tennis team this year should have a great season. Most of the team is fairly inuxperienced, but with Ward, Townsend, Kelsey, and Bailey as a nucleus they should make a fair showing against the tough schedule. With double matches scheduled with Ohio Northern, Wilberforce, Antioch, and Cedarville the varsity will be up against a high class of competition. The team is composed uf: Dun Ward, Captain, Wayne Town- send, Phil Kelsey, Lloyd Bailey, Roland Coppock and Chicken Cordrey. 184i 1 , Nt gf My sr, 1' sph The squad is improving rapidly. With the completion of the annual inter-class meet as en measuring stick, the boys are bettering records all of the time in practice. Even though losing to Earlham on April 24th the boys did some good performing. Meets with Wilberforce, and the Northwest Ohio Conference meet loom in the near future. White- side, Rudd, Hallstead, Collins, Starke, Groves, Coppock, Cordrey, Sutton, and Humphreys are outstanding in their events, 4 -85- -7 W. C. should have a much better season than last year this spring. Coach Miller is forming a hard-hitting fast clicking team. With plenty of material to choose from posi- tions are hard to hold. With games scheduled with Bluffton, Wilberiurce, Cedarville, and Dayton the boys will have to show their wares. Squad members are: Steve Anglin, Bob Wearley, Dave Lucas, G-man McNemar, Dave Bye, Jiggs McNemar, Bill Phillips, Bob Hallstend, Heber Groves, Glenn McElwee, Everett Seaman, Marion Maloney and Louis Gray. 1.86-. For the second year Wilmington College sponsored intramural tackle football with more than 20 candidates reporting for practice. Drill was held each afternoon for more than three weeks and the season was climaxecl with two games with the Wilmington High School squad. The W. C. eleven was defeated in both games, 12 to 6, and 13 to 0, but the Green and White gridders made a favorable showing. In the first game W. C. scored two touchdowns which were called back. On one of them the ball carrier stepped out of bounds and on the other a player in attempting to block clipped a W. H. S. player. Only two of the candidates that reported to Coach R. K. Miller for the football team had played before coming to W. C. The squad was composed of Wendell Whiteside, Walter Collins, Jr., Glenn McElwee, and Norman Purdy, ends: David Boger, Everett Sea- man, John Waring, and Rex McMillan, tacklesg Hubert McNemar, Junior Bradley, Charles Rudd, Heber Groves, John Hedrick, and Howard Canter, guards, Paul Sutton, center, Paul Collins, William Phillips, Allan McKay, Murray Bowman and James Short, backs. Possibly this experiment will lead to the restoration of intercollegiate football at Wilmington College. Most of these men were as large as most college football players. r-4-1-:pest ' W 3 2,1- -87-. INTRAMURAL SPORTS Carrying out his idea of a bigger and better intramural program at Wilmington College, Coach R. K. Miller enlarged the program this year to include touch football, basketball, volley ball, track, baseball and tennis. More than three-fourths of all the boys in the school took part in the intramural sports this year, The first event on the intramural program was the touch football league composed of five teams. The title was never decided because one crucial game was not played. but it was decided that the Gobblers and Ramblers were both to receive awards. The Gobblers won three games and lost one, while the Ramblers won two tilts and tied one and still had one with South Hall to play. South Hall finished in third place with two wins and one defeat. The City team was fourth with one win, two defeats and one tie and the Sigs were lust with four losses. Between the football and basketball seasons, a volley ball league was started and the Gobblers won this, losing only one game in four matches. South Hall was second with three wins and a defeat and the City third with one win and two setbacks. The Sigs finished fourth in this feague with one win and three losses and the Ramblers were last with three losses. A City-Rambler game was not played. Winning four straight games thc Gobblers annexed the basketball trophy and then polished off the reserves, 24 to 14, in a preliminary game. The Ramblers came in second in basketball with three wins and one defeat and the City, South Hall and Sig teams all tied for third place with one win and three set backs each. For the spring events on the program Coach Miller arranged an interclass track meet with three teams. One team was made up of seniors and juniors, one of soph- omores and one of freshmen. A baseball league of three teams, Gobblers, Sigs and In- dependents, was formed and several games played. -881 PLAYING THE GAME PHYSICAL ED.
