The school year of 1937-38 has been a splendid one for its all. The past nine months have been packed so full of activity that it is difficult to realize how the. time has passed so quickly. Before plunging into the work and play of the coming summer, let's pause a little while and live this memorable year over again, together. -Two- DEDICATION ..... There is no memory clearer to us than that of a true friend. It is the wish of everyone connected with Wil- mington College to dedicate this 1938 Wilmingtonian to one who was a true friend of this institution. Isaac Thorne Johnson served on' the Board of Trustees for twenty-four years. He was 'vitally interested in the library and aid- ed greatly in building it up to its present size. -Three- About the Campus THE FACULTY DR. WALTER L. COLLINS, PRESIDENT Dr. Collins came to Wilmington College in 1932 and under his leadership as president, the standing of the col- lege has steadily advanced. In addition to his administra- tive duties, Dr. Collins finds time for many other activities such as speaking, dramatics, music, and horseback riding. -Six- DR. Osc.-in F. BOYD is not only our vice pres- ident and chemistry professor, but a promising architect as well. We're proud of Dr. Boyd's new home overlooking the campus, where we may share its beauty. DR. H. H. VANNORSDALL, dean, is our director of teacher training and has the gift of con- ducting lively, interesting classes. He especial- ly enjoys motoring. MARGUERITE MITCHELL, our librarian and registrar, inspires us to worthwhile reading. She naturally loves books and beautiful flowers. ARTHUR L. HUNT, bursar, must see to it that we pay our bills. Three cheers 'for our friend, Mr. Hunt. COACH R. K. MILLER, our dean of men and physical director, stresses .development-then victory as a natural consequence. Lois ELDER, our dean of women, deserves all credit, for her responsibilities are numerous. The word efficient is especially applicable to Miss Elder. DR. FRANK A. PEELLE is kept very busy by his medical practice, but we are glad he makes a place for Wilmington College in his crowd- ed schedule. EDITH T. CHANNEL. You know, Carol Ann's and Bill's mother, who teaches her girls to be efficient, cultured homemakers by setting the pattern herself. HARRISON C. HALLE is not only an artist but a natural teacher. His quick wit, understand- ing of human nature, and his personality ac- count for his popularity. DR. W. RUSSELL PYLE, our professor of math- ematics and physics, has spent the past year in England serving as exchange professor. We have missed Dr. Pyle. -Seven i if to V, . fps DR. WENDELL G. FARR makes us better men and women, for he develops our philosophy and religion by talking it over with us in his pleasing, informal manner. MARY B. Hosxms lends both grace and dig- nity to her profession. She is truly the port in the storm for the two-year students. WILLIS H. HALL, a professor that the fresh- men and sophomores have not had the priv- ilege of knowing, for he is on leave of absence doing historical research in Geneva, Switzer-v land. Everyone who has come in contact with him knows him as a man who is vitally in- terested in his work. DR. FRANK O. HAZARD. We're glad he's back in his Biology department with a doctorate and a lovely wife. HELEN MCCO-Y, our dramatics professor, is at Western Reserve working on herd master's degree. Miss McCoy has always been a vital spark in campus activities and We'll be glad when she returns. DR. REGINALD D. MACNITT, our Social Science professor, is tireless in his efforts. He has founded a national social science fraternity, prepared numerous personality tests, and re- cently has written and published the sociology text used in his classes. DR. GEORGE W. HOWGATE is ,far reaching in his influence. He coaches our Gospel and Tennis teams, is chairman of the Co-ordinating Committee, and is our professor of English. We appreciate Dr. Howgate. FREDA SCHULZ, is indeed versatile - she teaches English, directs plays, is the Y. W. C. A. advis-er and, judging from her room, We know she would be a Very successful decorator. DR. HELEN S. STAFFORD, our foreign language professor, shares her many experiences and travels with us. She has a remarkable col- lection of dolls from many lands. DR. CARL L. SPICER, a historian, ancient to ultra-modern. He is an extensive reader, a lecturer, and possesses a remarkable vocabulary that makes his teaching outstanding. -Eight- CATHERINE DANno, whom we are indeed for- tunate to have with us. Thank you, Miss Dando, for your many beautiful selections, vocal and instrumental. EVELYN M. HIBNER, our commercial teacher, a friend to all and one whose smile radiates happiness. DR. THOMAS PRICE, our exchange professor from England, who, we hope, holds the ad- miration for Wilmington College that we do for him. MADELAINE DUNLAP, Mr. I-Iunt's very capable and pleasant secretary. CLARA LAWRENCE, a newcomer who has be- come one of us. She directs our many beauti- ful musical programs. LUCILLE OWINGS, matron, who mothers the South Hall boys and keeps us supplied with her beautiful flowers. GEORGE SNYDER, Superintendent of Buildings and grounds, who keeps us all in good spirits. SARA PAULLV, our dietician, who keeps us happy and healthy. - -N'ine-- Kathryn Denver Dormitory ...Te ......

Twin Ash Hall ..... Dormitory for Freshman Girls -Thirty-two- All in a Day's Work ..... -Th ty-th Bailey Hall of Science ..... This building was constructed in 1908 through the generosity of Mr. and Mrs. A. I. Bailey. It houses the Bio- logy, Physics, Mathematics, 'and Chemistry departments. -Thirty-jfour- CAMPUS ACTIVITIES Student Government ..... The Wilmington student has ample opportunity to play an active part in student self-government. Our school is a very democratic institution and there are numerous agencies through which the student may voice his opinions. These agencies, such as the Student Senate and the Dormitory Councils, control the policies which directly affect the student body as much as is practicable. We feel that the experience gained by the mem- bers of the various councils is quite valuable and will prove helpful in life after graduation. 1 - -Thi'rty-six- Student Senate ..... The Student Senate is the representative organization chosen by the vote of the student body. Each year four Seniors, three Juniors, two Sophomores, and one Fresh- man are elected. The Senate holds an important position in student life since it sponsors activities such as elections, dances, Freshman week, student projects and parties. A posi- tion on the Senate enables a student to render a true service to his college. Pan-Hellenic Council ..... The Pan-Hellenic Council is made up of the presidents of the social sororities and fraternities of the campus. Ruth Phelps, Lilly Painter, Helen Foltz, Clarence Cordrey, and Wilbur Wilson comprised this group for the year 1937-38. Clarence Cor-drey acted as president of the Council, while Dean Elder and Coach Miller acted as advisors. This Council formulates all the rules concerning the Greek letter social organizations. Its most important function is the regulation of Hell-Week activities. Women's Dormitory CounciI..... The Dormitory Council is composed of girls elected by the residents of the girls' dormitories. They regulate the privileges of the dorm girls. Members of this group plan for the birthday dinners, which are held in Denver Hall every month in honor of those who have had a birthday during the month, and for the annual Christmas dinner. The seating arrangements for the dining hall are also made out by this group. The Coun- cil is composed of: I SENIORS-Genevieve Alley, Ruth Pavey. JUNIORS-Helen' Louise Stanfield, Edna Prosser. SOPHOMORES-Ruth Haerr, Rose Brown. FRESHMEN- Ruth Drummond. Men's Dormitory Council ..... The members of this body are elected by the men who live at South Hall., Regular meetings are held once a month and matters pertaining to dormitory rules and regulations are considered. It is the duty of the members of this Council to maintain law and order in the Hall-if possible. Members of the Council are: PRESIDENT- Robert Wearley. Marion Rains Avery Allen Horace Leeds -4Thirty-se'ven- i A Toward a Scientific Viewpoint. Top-Big doings in the Chemistry Lab Bottom-Where is the brain of a frog? -Thii'ty-eight-- Scientific Organizations ..... Due to the fact that Wilmington College is very strong in its sci-ence department, many students with scientific ability are attracted. In order that these students who possess common scientific interests may go beyond their academic Work in their study and discussion, two scientific organizations have been formed. Although each of these societies has faculty advisors, the activity is carried on largely by the students themselves. Chi Beta Phi ..... The Chi Beta Phi Scientific Association is a national honorary society for those in- terested in the physical sciences. The fraternity was founded at Randolph-Macon Col- lege in 1916 and there are now eighteen active chapters in existence. The Mu Chapter on this campus was established March 6, 1926. To be eligible to membership, a student must have a B average in at least twenty hours of the science courses. The officers for the present year are: f PRESIDENT-Sulo Rintamaa. SECRETARY AND TREASURER-Wilbur Wilson. Science Club ..... The object of the Science Club is to offer to students with scientific interests an opportunity to increase further their scientific background in an enjoyable manner. The meetings take place once a month and consist of scientific topics presented by members of the Club. It is the custom of the Club to take advantage of the good weather of the fall and spring by going on field trips to scenic spots in the surrounding country. This year the trips have consisted of two Weiner roasts which have proven very interesting and eiioyable. - - --Thi'r1:y-nine- 4- 1 I. Thespians All ..... Two scenes from the 'much enjoyed Petticoat Fever directed by Miss Freda Schulz. 1 -Forty- Dramatics ..... Three drama projects under the direction of Freda Schulz have been put on dur- ing the year 1937-38 at Wilmington College. On February 9th, Petticoat Fever, by Mark Reed, a non-tropical farce, was presented in the Auditorium. Bury the Dead, by Irvin Shaw, an anti-war drama, was read by a group of thirty-five at an open meeting of Alpha Psi Omega in the Chapel on April 5th and again at the Union Service at the Friends Church on the 24th. The senior play, Candle Light, a Viennese Comedy by Seigfried Geyer, was presented May 17th. Alpha Psi Omega ..... The Omicron Cast of Alpha Psi Omega, national honorary dramatic fraternity, was organized on the Wilmington College campus in 1926, with Miss Helen McCoy as faculty adviser. This organization makes it possible for those who are interested in dramatics to study more intensively the mechanics and technique of play production. It also gives its members an opportunity to gain much practical experience in dramatic art. Occasion- al trips are made to nearby cities to see outstanding productions such as Hel-en Hayes' Victoria Regina, which some of our members enjoyed this year in Cincinnati. The mem- mers of Alpha Psi Omega wish to extend their thanks to Miss Freda Schulz for her will- ing assistance and co-operation as faculty adviser. THE CAST FOR 1937 DIRECTOR- Francis Dunlap.

W. C. A. .... . Activities for the Y. W. start-ed with the first week of school, with the little sister project, followed by the joint Y dinner and the big and little sister party in honor of the freshmen. Another highlight of the activity calendar was the annual May Break- fast in Twin Ash on May 3. An important project of the year was the decorating and furnishing of a room on the third floor of Twin Ash, where cabinet m-eetings were held each Wednesday evening. Miss Freda Schulz was faculty advisor. Y. M. C. A. .... . With the assistance of the faculty advisor, Dr. Howgate, the Y. M. C. A. has had a very successful year. The Pres-ident was sent t-o the Y Conference at Lake Geneva last' June and brought back helpful information. During Freshman week the organization did everything possible to make the new students feel at home. Several chapel programs were conducted during the year. In one of these programs we were privileged to hear the noted Dr. Jesse Holmes, of Swarthmore College. The Gospel Team ..... The Team, sponsored by the Y. M. and Y. W. C. A., has conducted services in the various churches within a radius of thirty-five miles of Wilmington. Usually the program consists of devotions, two talks, and one or two musical numbers. Those who took part this year are: Esther Applegate, Lloyd Bailey, Helen Blackburn, Ruth Anna Bogan, Mil- dred Carr, Credon Ertel, Harold Farquhar, Helen Foltz, Florence Foxbower, Rosalee Hal- stead, Jeannette Hartman, Ralph Hulick, Wilbur Wilson, Elizabeth Keiter, Maxine Keiter, Florence Lane, Anna Mathews, Maro Martin, Lilly Painter, Ruth Phelps, Marion Rains, Kathryn Swisshelm, Laura Taylor, Louise Tinkelenburg and Eva Worley. --Forty-th'ree- A X Music Hath Charms .....

The climax of the year's musical activity was the important part played by this group in the presentation of the concertized Faust This program received favorable comment throughout the community. Phi Beta Phi ..... j This organization grew out of the old music society, the Etude Club. It was changed to a Greek letter fraternity in 1930 under the leadership of Miss Dorothy Locke. The membership of Phi Beta Phi is composed of girls who have been outstanding in music work on the campus.- Each year a musical project of some sort is studied. This year's project Was based on the term papers written by the girls in music appreciation. Each member discussed her paper and presented the music contained in it. Several enjoyable trips were made to Cincinnati to hear the Symphony Orchestra. Since the Music Department is headed by a new professor this year, the group was very glad to welcome Miss Clara Lawrence into membership. Three Freshmen members were initiated during the second semester.

The Alpha chapter of Zeta Sigma Pi, national honorary social science fraternity, was founded by Dr. R. E. MacNitt and Professor Willis H. Hall in 1935. This organization had a most successful year from its first meeting on September 27th to its annual picnic held at Bryan State Park on May 22nd. At the close of the year, the number of chapters or- ganized at various colleges had reached eighteen. The first national convention was held in Philadelphia in April in conjunction with the annual convention of the American Academy of Social and Political Science. One of the most important achievements was the publication of the first year-book, the Blue and Gold. The first banquet of the year was held on December 3rd at the Cincinnati Club, when Miss Mary E. McChristie was made an honorary member. At the Spring banquet held April 25th, eleven new mem- bers were initiated. IN FACULTATE-Dr. R. D. MacNitt. PRESIDENT-Lilly Painter.

This year's veteran cage team rolled at a merry clip into one of the most success- ful seasons in years for W. C. basketball teams. Besides easily winning the Northwest Ohio Conference championship for the second successive year with six wins and no setbacks, the fighting Quakers fought their way to a top ranking positi-on in the State- wide basketball race with the fine record of thirteen wins against five losses. The Quakers, rated as one of the tightest defensive teams in the state, tied the top notch Miami U. for third place in this department, Offensively the Quakers were a fast-break- ing clever-shooting, point-a-minute machine. Memorable highlights during the season were the two victories over the clever colored Wilberforce quintet, the last minute 31-30 triumph over the big Kent State out- fit, the double wins from our -scrapping rivals, Defiance, and the spectacular homecoming game with Dayton fthe lead changed hands seven timesl. Never were the Quakers de- feated by more than five points except by the extraordinary Akron University team, which lost to Michigan by only three points. The only other teams to defeat the Quakers were Cincinnati, Miami, Dayton, and Denison. Although Clarence Cordrey, Dave Lucas and Robert Wearley graduate this spring, prospects are bright for another great team next year with five regulars, Lowell Starke, George Steele, Harry Townsend, Wilbur Wearley, and Philip Kelsey, returning.

What proved to be a very finteresting social .season opened with an invitation dance held at the I. O. O. F. Hall. Other activities included an 'informal dance at the Masonic Temple, the pledge banquet at the New Martin Hotel, the pledge dance held at the Masonic Temple, the annual stag party, and the annual farewell gathering.
