THE WILMINGTONIAN 1949 os. je- e D EZOM the wtales PUBLISHED ANNUALLY BY AND FOR THE STUDENTS OF WILMINGTON COLLEGE WILMINGTON, OHIO ab, EVENING ON THE CAMPUS By William B. Hansford, Jr. Editor PAUL W. YOUNG Business Manager KATHLEEN KELLEY OLD MAIN BY NIGHT By Edwin Lane yearbook is intended to serve as a repository for the events of the year just past. Editors must rely upon words and pictures to tell such a long story, and even then it cannot be com- plete, nor can it carry with it the real color of the particular time of the year. A camera must tell only what it sees through a tiny lens. Any story it tells must necessarily be only two-dimensional. No story we know was ever so limited. The 1949 Wilmingtonian is telling the story of 1948-49, but it begins its “big story” in 1870, when Wilmington College was born. Dr. O. F. Boyd, more fully acquainted with the College than any other per- son, wrote the history of Wilmington College from 1870 to 1948. Claudia Hatch, the yearbook copy edi- tor, wrote the story of the past year. Yearbooks, too, are somewhat larger than the 1949 Wilmingtonian. We hope that the change in size and the increase in the number of pages meets with the approval of everyone who sees the yearbook. For the first time in the school’s history, the students and faculty receive a textbook-size volume. Inside the many pages are points few yearbooks could in- clude for want of space. We have attempted to give you the complete story. This, then, is your 1949 Wilmingtonian.

Boyd (Written February, 1949) So that students and friends of Wilmington College may know more about the background of the institution, this history is being written. The administration of each of the twelve presidents who have served the college is written separately, giving the important events and achieve- ments of each period. The writer has been privileged to work under eight of the twelve men who have headed the school, five of whom are now living. Wilmington College has had a period of steady growth since its be- ginning in 1870. Like some other privately endowed colleges, it has had many periods of stress but it has always been able to move forward through the efforts and sacrifices of interested friends. Throughout most of its existence, it has been a small liberal arts college. Only within the past three years has the enrollment numbered more than 400 regular students. “Non Saltu sed Multis Gradibus” The motto of the college, “Not by a leap but by many steps,” tells definitely the history and development of Wilmington College. In writ- ing this sketch, the author is deeply impressed and moved by the labors and sacrifices of those who have gone before and made it possible for us to have a Wilmington College. The united support of the faculty, stu- dents, and friends of the college is vitally needed to carry the college forward. The banner of the college is floating high and co-ordination of all available forces is needed to carry it to a higher plane. Franklin College A brief history of Franklin College is necessary to enable one to un- derstand how Wilmington College came into existence. Franklin College was founded in 1863 at New Albany in Athens County, Ohio, by the Gar- vin brothers, Thomas, James, and Hugh. As Ohio University was already a thriving school in that region, it was decided to move Franklin College to a more open territory. The Church of Christ was represented in Wil- mington and Clinton County by a strong group of Christian leaders. The Garvin brothers, after looking over the territory, decided to move the college to Wilmington in the fall of 1865. Classes were held in the county probate building at the corner of South and Main Streets and in the Christian Church located on the site of the present Nellie Moore Memorial. All of the Board of Trustees and the leaders who sponsored Franklin Col- lege are not known by the writer. It is known, however, that the follow- ing men from Wilmington were members of the first Board of Directors, viz: C. M. Bosworth, L. B. Welch, R. E. Doan, R. Wickersham and A. C. My fe Diboll. Franklin College, while sponsored by the Christian Church, was non-sectarian as is shown in its constitution. Among the large contributors are found the names of prominent Friends. The Garvin brothers were young men of fire and zeal and succeeded in selling the idea of raising $20,000 for erecting a building to house Frank- lin College. The campaign was begun, and at a meeting in the old court house building on January 6, 1866, it was found that.$18,000 had been sub- scribed. The balance was pledged at this meeting and on February 17 fol- lowing, the fair grounds in east Wilmington was chosen as the site suit- able for the building. Seventeen and one-fourth acres were purchased at the price of $225 per acre. The fair was held as usual that year on the grounds. Later sixteen more acres adjoining the fair grounds were purchased from Thomas C. Morris. The building was begun in 1866, and on July 4 of that year an im- pressive ceremony was held at the laying of the corner stone, at which President J. W. Hall, of Miami University, was the principal speaker. Thomas Garvin, a recent graduate of Miami University, was selected as head of the new institution. For a time, the outlook of Franklin Col- lege was bright, but the work on the building moved so slowly that it was not until September 22, 1868, that it was opened for the reception of stu- dents. It has been reported, but not confirmed, that the students of Franklin College helped with the construction. It is confirmed, how- ever, that the bricks were molded and burned in a kiln on the site of the present athletic field where there is a depression in the ground and frag-° ments of brick still remain. There were no stairways to the second and third floors, so only the rooms on the lower floor which were only rough coated with plaster could be used. Franklin College had many modern ideas in instruction, and a touch of 1946 college era is noticeable in the fact that the college had its own GI Bill of Rights for veterans. The local paper carried a notice of the opening: “ _. The year will be divided into three terms of twelve weeks each, and the curriculum into primary, preparatory, and collegiate depart- ments. Special attention will be given to those students interested in teaching in district schools. Disabled veterans of the Civil War and ladies of good moral character without sufficient means will be admitted free.” Following the Civil War, there was a period of depression which brought financial difficulties to the managers of the college, in that many of the subscribers who had made pledges to the building fund were not able to make payment. The final blow fell in July of 1869 when the brick masons, Darbyshire and McMillan, who had erected the building, were granted court judgment for their pay. To satisfy this judgment, Franklin College was offered for sale. For a time, there were no buyers as there seemed no demand for a building of this type except for college purposes. On August 11, 1870, Franklin College was put up for auction and sold to the Society of Friends for the sum of $11,334. In reviewing the history of Franklin College, we must give credit to the Garvin brothers and their faithful supporters of the Christian Church, for they are the people who crystallized the ideas of having a college in Wilmington and began work from which their followers greatly benefitted. —13— Wilmington College The Society of Friends is noted for its emphasis on education, as no religious group has more colleges in proportion to the size of its member- ship. A group of far-sighted Friends under the leadership of John Doug-. las and Jonathan Bailey started a movement to raise the necessary funds for the purchase of the Franklin College building and grounds. Jonathan Bailey, grandfather of Laurenna Farbuhar, drove his white horse hitched to a phaeton over Miami, Center, and Fairfield Quarterly meetings to collect money for the purchase. The Board of Directors, with John Henry Douglas as president, appointed a committee consisting of R. E. Doan and Jesse Starbuck to look after immediate repairs. They furnished the building with two hundred and twenty seats, forty settees, four stoves and a college bell at a cost of $260. They had the building ready for the formal dedication on April 11, 1871. This was a great day for the newly organized Wilmington College. Lewis Estes First President, 1871-1874 The first president of Wilmington College was Lewis Estes, graduate of Bowdoin College and a member of the Earlham College faculty. He was a very scholarly man and laid a solid foundation upon which to build for the fu- ture. He had two sons, Ludovic and Row- land, who taught with him in the college. The first street east of the campus is named in honor of his elder son. Two nieces of Mrs. Estes, Emma Clark and Anna Hoag, the former a teacher, were with the Estes most of their time in Wilmington. President Estes and his family lived on an upper floor of the college building until they moved to the newly erected Twin Ash Hall in 1873. The college was heated with stoves in those days. Ellen Wright, a student of this period, told of liv- ing on an upper floor and of carrying coal and water to her room. President Estes was employed for a term of five years to run the school, largely as a private enterprise. He was given the use of College Hall for dwelling and class room purposes. He was permitted to collect the tuitions from students and in turn was held responsible for all expenses of teaching and maintenance. He was an elderly man and found the strain of run- ning a college too great for his strength, so after three years of service he resigned. There was a period of five months at the close of President Estes’ term in which no school was held. There are no catalogs on file in the college offices that tell of the course of study during the first administration, but, from the training Ellen Wright received then as a student, the courses must have been much the same as those in President Trueblood’s administration which followed, such as we find recorded in 1874-75. Twin Ash Hall was built during this period, 1872-73, and was run privately by individuals who Bs | es employed a matron to manage it on the club plan for the benefit of col: lege students. Boys who roomed elsewhere were permitted to board at the Twin Ash dining hall at club rates. Benjamin Trueblood Second President, 1874-1879 In 1874, Benjamin Trueblood, a graduate of Earlham College and professor of Latin and Greek at Penn College (1872-74), was chosen to succeed Lewis Estes. He was a very young man, being only twenty-seven years of age, probably the college’s youngest president. While at Earlham, he had met Sarah Terrell, a Clinton County girl, whom he later married and brought as a bride to Wilmington College, where she served both as teacher and matron. To meet the living needs for the young men of the college, South Hall dormitory was erected in 1875-76 for the sum of $5000. Both boarding halls ran on the club plan with a matron in charge. Meals were served for five to eight cents per meal in those days eo rooms cost only one dollar per week or ess. Wilmington College was incorporated in 1875 under the laws of Ohio to operate under a joint board of managers and trustees ap- pointed by the Center, Miami, and Fairfield Quarterly meetings, mem- bers of the Indiana Yearly Meeting. The course of study in President Trueblood’s administration was pat- terned strictly according to the classical ideas of that day. Extensive offerings of foreign language predominated the curriculum. So that the student of this day may know the nature of education which was given in that day, quotations will be made from the 1877-78 catalog: “In the selection and arrangement of the studies of the different courses, no undue preponderance has been given to any department. In the classical course, while those studies are retained which, by the test of time, have proved so productive of mental discipline, the practical studies, which the needs of modern times demand, receive a fair share of attention. The scientific course is designed to meet the wants of those who do not desire to devote their time to the ancient classics, but yet wish to enjoy the advantages of a liberal educa- tion. “Believing that the study of the Greek and Latin languages, as a vehicle of literature, manners and customs of the cultivated nations of the ancient world, is an essential part of a liberal education, we have taken care to select those works which experience has proved most fruitful in securing good mental discipline and which makes the student acquainted with the best expressions of Grecian and Roman eloquence, philosophy and poetry. It is believed that in this way only is the student enabled to proceed to the study of the laws which govern the development of human thought as evinced in language, and to the wonderful results of modern philosophy. Special time is devoted in the last year of the course to the study of language as a science and to the careful application of its analogies and deduction to the English tongue. The student is thus led to an intelligent appreciation of his own language, attainable, we believe, in no other way.” This quotation was probably written by Benjamin Trueblood and gives the theory of education or that day which emphasizes the value _ of mental discipline and that one learns to understand and speak his mother tongue best by studying the Greek and Latin languages. The college year was first divided into three terms of twelve weeks each; later fiiteen weeks was given to the tall term to make it extend up to the Christmas holidays. his plan was tollowed until 1914, when the semester plan was adopted. Much can be said in favor of this plan, as it divided the year better than either the modern quarter or semester plans. The great disadvantage was in evaluating the work in units when terms were of different periods of time. Students in that day were not so “credit-hour” conscious as they are today, as the diploma was their goal and served in place of transcripts when transferring or securing a job. The tuition for the courses was one dollar per week, $15 for the fall term and $12 for each of the other two terms. ‘l'his cost of education was held to strictly and maintained almost as a tradition until 1903 when it was raised to $1.25 per week. Wilmington College has always been an opportunity school seeking to give educational training to all. Two bachelor degrees, the A. B. and B. S., were given from the be- ginning of the college. A third degree, the Master’s degree, was also given. A student after three years of successful service, particularly in the teaching field, could apply for an examination, and upon the presen- tation of a suitable thesis and the successful passing of the examination be granted the Master’s degree, which was regarded as a teacher’s de- gree. Ellen Wright was a member of the first graduating class of 1875, and at a later date was granted a Master’s degree from Wilmington Col- lege. The period served by President Trueblood was perhaps the most strenuous one in the history of the college. During his administration in 1878-79, because of lack of funds, there was a feeling that Friends should give up the management of the college. To meet this situation, a group - of 104 faithful Friends, of which Jesse Starbuck of Dover was president and Richard Greene was secretary, guaranteed necessary support to the college for a period of five years. In 1879, after five years of splendid service, President Trueblood resigned to accept the presidency of Penn College, Oskaloosa, Iowa. He attained fame in life through his efforts in promoting world peace. He served twenty-five years as president of the American Peace Society and was one of the founders of the Perma- nent Court of Arbitration at the Hague. : The Trueblood family resided in Twin Ash Hall. The late Eva Ross, . as a student in College, cared for the young children of the Trueblood fam-— ily. They gave to the College a youthful spirit of self-sacrifice that was so badly needed at that time. This same spirit of sacrifice spread to all : the friends of the College, giving an increased impetus to their efforts to carry on under strenuous difficulties. The Truebloods set a standard of excellence that has prevailed throughout the years. A great sorrow came to the family in the loss of their first-born and only son, Irvin, who now lies buried in Sugar Grove Cemetery, Wilming- ton, with his parents. oy | ae David Dennis Third President, 1879-1881 David Dennis, professor from Earlham College, came to the presi- dency in 1879. He taught Latin and Greek, and his wife, Mattie C. Dennis, taught rhetoric and grammar. William Cul- len Dennis, who became president of Earlham College at a later date, was a small baby when his parents came to Wilmington. These two teachers gave vigorous service for two years, after which time President Dennis went to graduate school, later to take up his former chair at Earlham College. In the early days, ilmington College depended considerably on Earlham College for its leadership, as shown py the training of the early presidents and members of the faculty. Dennis is one of the sreatest scientists to come from Indiana, hav- ing introduced the “modern” laboratory meth- ods in both chemistry and biology. It was President Dennis who started the first endowment for the permanent support of the College. James B. Unthank Fourth President, 1881-1903 James B. Unthank who had been a member of the faculty of Wil- imington College for seven years, took over the presidential duties in 1881. He was a classmate of Benjamin Trueblood at Earlham College and came to Wilmington with him in 1874 as a teacher of language and his- tory. President Unthank was an able teacher and organizer. He strengthened and added to the departments of the college. Many old debts were paid off and the endowment was increased which totaled $31,000 at the time of his leaving in 1903. The library was in- creased to 3500 volumes, which were partially classified, and a library room equipped. The science laboratories were developed, along with a natural science museum. A gymnasium and an astronomical observatory were erected. The college buildings were modernized by adding hot-air heating plants in 1898. He gave strong emphasis to the spiritual | needs of the students and established strong connections between the church and the college. The enrollment rose to the highest figure up to that time in 1899, when 150 students enrolled. The size of his faculty increased to 10 members. He gave to the college twenty-nine of the best years of his life. This long period of service carried the college through a critical period and placed it upon a higher lane. ; He built a home for himself on College Street which is now the resi- dence of Miss Elsie McCoy. He resigned in 1903 to return to his former ay fae home in Webster, Indiana. President Unthank lies buried in Sugar Grove Cemetery in Wilmington. Albert J. Brown Fifth President, 1903-1912 Albert J. Brown, a graduate of Leland Stanford University, and a prominent minister of the First Friends Meeting in Indianapolis, began his duties as president in the fall of 1903. He was a scholarly man and an able public speak-: er. He was a strong promoter and able to place the college before the public in a very forceful manner as. evidenced by two _ suc- cessful financial campaigns, one in 1904-06 and the other in 1910, bringing the endowment from $31,000 to $80,000. In the 1910 campaign, 510 subscriptions were received from individ- uals outside the Friends meeting. President Brown was a man with a mag- netic personality. He made friends easily and was loved and respected by his faculty, stu- dents, and hosts of friends. He was greatly in demand as a public speaker and carried the name of Wilmington College far and wide. During President Brown’s administration, many improvements were made in the physi- cal plant. The gymnasium was enlarged with modern toilets added. The athletic field was graded and a grand stand erected. Twin Ash Hall was purchased in 1904 from its private owners, and Bailey Hall of Science was erected in 1908-09. In the course of study, many improvements were made and new departments were added. One of his big achievements was the better- ment of public relations between the college and the community. President Brown lived in the home on West Main Street, now the residence of Dr. Kelley Hale. He drove a black horse to his work at the college. His daughter, Althea, and son, Sidney, were graduated from the college. He resigned in 1912 to accept a position with the Farquhar Furnace Company. Samuel Hodgin Sixth President, 1912-1915 Samuel Hodgin, a graduate of Harvard University and professor of English at Guilford College, became the sixth president in the fall of 1912. President Hodgin was at Wilmington only three years, but he accomplished much in the way of reorganization. His first task was to reorganize all the courses in the college with an attempt to standardize them so that they could be credited and evaluated for transcript purposes. The three-term plan, adhered to from the beginning of the college, was changed to the semester plan of the present day. The writer of this article regrets that the term plan—which was almost the quarter plan, with only a slight dif- ference—was not made into the quarter system. The Ohio State Univer- Say De sity was at that time on the semester system, and that, being the institution to which many of our students transfer, caused the faculty to decide on the semester plan. Ohio State later adopted | | the quarter plan. : | The Home Economics department and the Department of Education were first introduced by Samuel Hodgin. A summer session with 62 students was held in 1914. Dr. O. J. Thatch- er, a member of the college faculty, was a member of the Ohio Legislature at that time and was instrumental in getting Wilmington College approved for teacher training. Wil- mington was one of the first colleges in the state to receive this privilege. The two joint boards of the college, the Board of Managers and the Board of Trustees, were merged into a single Board of Trustees of nine members. A new charter was received by the college in 1914 changing the manage- ment of the college from Center, Miami, and Fairfield Quarterly meetings to that of the Wilmington Yearly Meeting, which had been organized snice 1892. President Hodgin started the idea of a Living Endowment in 1914, in which he had individuals pledge the interest on a given sum of money, rather than give the full amount of the principal sum. He left too soon afterward to give the plan a fair trial. This plan was later used suc- cessfully by Dr. S. A. Watson. ' The construction during this administration consisted of equipping a laboratory for the Home Economics Department, in the basement. of Bailey Hall and the addition of a cement veranda to Twin, Ash. Samuel Hodgin resided on North Lincoln Street. In the spring of 1915, he resigned to:take.over the management of a southern agency for the Farquhar Furnace Company. =| a J.‘ Edwin’ Jay Seventh President, 1915-1927 To succeed Samuel Hodgin, Edgar Lewellen, a prominent educator of Indiana, was employed. He came to commencement, was announced as president, but asked for one year of time to finish his contract as a school superintendent. John Edwin Jay was employed as acting president and field secretary for this period. Mr. Lewellen decided to remain in public school service, and Mr. Jay was made president with full authority in 1916. President Jay was a graduate of Earlham College and Yale University and was a former professor in Guilford College, North Carolina. The ad- ministration of President Jay was a fruitful one, with the college rising to a new level. He conducted two successful financial campaigns, one in 1917 and the other in 1923, which raised the endowment from $80,000 to $231,000. He possessed a rare ability for remodeling old structures and erect- ing new ones. He has an outstanding record for increasing the size of the oy fs physical plant and improving its appearance. The following additions and changes were made in the physical plant: The campus was improved in appearance by trimming the trees and removing many unnecessary ones. Twin Ash dormitory was remodeled and a third story added; Douglas Hall was purchased; Kathryn Denver Memorial Hall was built; the third floor auditorium of College Hall was made into its present form; the old study room was equipped with opera seats for chapel; the music building was pur- chased from Samuel Glass; the Yearly Meet- ing Auditorium was made into a gymnasium; Wright Cottage and the house next to it were given to the college by Ellen Wright; the three small houses to the south of South Hall on Whittier Place were purchased; the property at the southwest corner of Douglas Street and Whittier Place were purchased; the property at the southwest corner of Douglas Street and Whittier Place (now the home of Coach Shelly) together with two acres of land—now the athletic field—were purchased from Jacob G. Hunt; eight acres of land on which the Industrial Arts building is located were purchased from Domino Griffin; and the former frame gymnasium near College Hall was removed. It was in 1917 that Lebanon National Normal University was merged with Wilmington College. All the records of that school were brought to the latter school and have since been administered by Wilmington for the benefit of Lebanon students. No property except a few mounted birds and some books were received from that school. The merger of this normal school, together with new state laws which required more prepara- tion for teachers, caused an increased emphasis to be placed on teacher training. The summer school, which had an enrollment of 62 in 1914, had an attendance of 546 in 1927. President Jay purchased and remodeled a house on the corner of Ludovic Street and Fife Avenue and lived there until he purchased the large white brick building on Rombach Avenue, now known as Jay Hall. President Jay’s son, Howard, was graduated from the College. President Jay was a man of vision and purpose and did much for the college in his twelve years of service. | Henry G. Williams Eighth President, 1927-28 Henry G. Williams, a graduate of Lebanon National Normal Univer- sity and former Dean of Education at the Ohio University, came to the presidency in the summer of 1927. His ambition was to effect a per- panent and lasting merger between Wilmington College and Lebanon Na- tional Normal University. This he proposed to do by erecting a Holbrook Memorial on our. campus. Architectural plans were drawn up and the work laid for raising $150,000 for the building, but his untimely death in June, 1928, put an end to the project. Dr. Williams was a man of dynamic personality and was much in demand as a public speaker. As owner and editor of the magazine, THE OHIO TEACH- ER, he was well versed in the methods of pub- licity and able to place the value of college effectively before the public. This magazine, on his death, issued a special edition praising the state-wide work of its capable editor. Dr. Williams’ funeral was held in the College gym- nasium. “Tt is not sufficient to say of this man— that he was a good man; he was more than that—he was a most useful citizen, endowed with great capabilities which he employed to the fullest for the advancement of the cause of education and good citizenship in our State.” This is an excerpt from the June, 1928, issue of THE OHIO TEACHER. Beverly O. Skinner Ninth President, 1928-1931 Beverly Oden Skinner, graduate of the University of Chicago and Ohio University and superintendent of the Marietta Schools, came as president of Wilmington College in the fall of 1928. President Skinner’s ambition was to raise the standards of Wilmington College to meet the requirements of accrediting agencies. To achieve this goal he carried out two finan- cial campaigns. The first campaign in 1929 was for a $100,000 sustaining fund, which was successfully completed, having been headed by him personally and assisted by his faculty and Board of Trustees. The second campaign in 1930, for $500,000 endowment, was not suc- cessful because of the national financial crash which came in full force at that time. President Skinner lived at..Peterson Place. He resigned in 1931 to accept the appointment of Director of Education for the State of Ohio. During the period that intervened between the leaving of President Skinner and the coming of his successor (1931-1932), Dr. O. F. Boyd, of the Department of Chem- istry, served as acting president for the school. Dr. Walter L. Collins Tenth President, 1932-1940 Dr. Walter L. Collins, graduate of Lebanon National Normal Univer- sity, Wilmington College, and the University of Cincinnati, and supervisor of graduate training in the University of Cincinnati, took over presidential duties in the summer of 1932. Dr. Collins came to the college during the Biot depth of the financial depression and was very successful in the organiza- tion of the faculty and in managing the budget. He strengthened the faculty by bringing several highly trained teachers to his staff. Dr. Collins’ crowning achievement was the securing of admittance of the college to the American Association of Teachers’ Colleges, which meant much to the teachers trained at Wilmington College and to the standing of the school. During Dr. Collins’ administration, the large “Rosa Robinson estate” came to the col- lege in the way of several hundred acres of fertile land in Richland township near Rees- ville. An oil station was erected at the corner of Fife and Rombach Avenues which the col- lege still owns as an investment. This site was formerly occupied by the Triangle dormi- tory for girls. An alumni fund of $700 was raised and used to establish a student center at the corner of Whittier Place and Douglas Street in 1935. Dr. Collins lived on Rombach Avenue in the stucco home now owned by Mrs. Mildred Goodwin. All three of his children were graduated from Wilmington College. He resigned in February, 1940, to acce pt a position with the State Department of Education for Ohio. Dr. Boyd was again chosen to administer the college during the period between the leaving of Dr. Collins and the arrival of his successor. Dr. Sheppard Arthur Watson Eleventh President, 1940-1947 Dr. S. A. Watson, graduate of Friends University and Ohio State Uni- versity, former Professor of Biology at Wilmington College (1920-23) and Dean of Whittier College, came to the presi- dency in 1940. The outstanding piece of work done by Dr. Watson was the admittance of Wilmington College to the North Central As- sociation of Colleges in 1943. To get the col- lege prepared for this step, it was necessary to provide financial security for the college and to build an adequate permanent library build- ing. Both of these, Dr. Watson was able to do. The idea of the living endowment was made to function and produce results, temporarily at least. The new library building was erected in 1941. Additions were made to the endow- ment through the estate of Isaac T. Johnson. and his brother, Charles. Many other additions were made to the physical plant in the building of a heating plant at the gymnasium for the gymnasium, library, and College Hall; the erection of two camps of house trailers; the erection of three temporary barracks for GI students; the erection of Bs two faculty apartments; and the erection of the Industrial Arts building. The barracks, the faculty apartments, the trailers, and the Industrial Arts buildings were grants of the Federal Works Agency. The Bosworth farm (275 acres), adjoining the college land on the south and east, was pur- chased in 1947 for a college farm. A campaign for a Townsend Memorial was begun in the summer of 1944 by school men of Ohio and friends of the late Horace R. Townsend, President of the Board of Trustees and Commissioner of Athletics for the State of Ohio. The campaign netted $17,000 which will be used for a Townsend Athletic Field. Dr. Watson resided on Rombach Avenue for a time, later moving to the president’s home on College Street, purchased by the Board of Trustees from Thurman “Dusty” Miller. Dr. Watson resigned in November, 1946, to accept the presidency of his alma mater, Friends University, Wichita, Kansas. Dr. Samuel D. Marble Twelfth President, 1947- Dr. Samuel D. Marble, graduate of the University of New Mexico and Syracuse University, and professor of political science at West Virginia Wesleyan, began his duties as president in the summer of 1947. While Dr. Marble is not the youngest president of the college, he is youth- ful and full of zeal and vigor. He was in- augurated as president on November 23, 1947, at which time Dr. Charles P. Taft, of Cincin- nati, Ohio, gave the address. It was a very colorful and impressive ceremony, and was the first of its kind on the Quaker campus. The only other presidential induction cere- mony, to the knowledge of the writer, was that held for Dr. S. A. Watson on Education Day at the Friends Yearly Meeting in August, 1940. Dr. Marble has set out to give Wilming- ton College a prominent place in the educa- tional world. A $160,000 dormitory for men it now in the process of construction. While it is not the first student project that has been carried out on the Wil- mington College campus, it is unique in that it is the only one that has had sufficient magnitude and has been given sufficient publicity to catch the imagination and attract the attention of the public. Nothing that has ever happened at Wilmington College has given such publicity and so focused the attention of the nation on Wilmington College as has this student project. On Nov. 10-13, 1947, a convocation was held at the College, the theme of which was “Wilmington College Building for a Better Tomorrow.” Many speakers of national note were secured for the occasion. On Sat- urday, November 13, homecoming day was celebrated and was attended by a vast throng... Six hundred old students and friends assembled for a ee ee Studenis of 1949 may see in this picture something of what the Wilming- ton College of the past looked like. No Music Building is included in the drawing, just as Douglas Hall has been eliminated. The Library was not yet built. The several faculty apartments and men’s barracks are con- spicuous by their absence along Whittier Place and Douglas Street. In the dinner in the College gymnasium, at which President Clyde Milner, of Guilford College, and Dr. Marble were the speakers. There is a financial campaign being carried on at present to raise the funds for the erection of a much-needed college auditorium-chapel and more class rooms. It is too early to evaluate the work of Dr. Marble, as he has only begun. He is a man of dynamic personality and is able to place forcibly before the public the value and the needs of the college. Teacher Ellen Wright No history of Wilmington College would be complete without men- tion of the life and work of Teacher Ellen Wright. This lady was reared near Highland and came to Wilmington Col- lege in the days of the first president, Lewis Estes. She was graduated — oA bottom center is the Holbrook Memorial, a building which never passed out of the proposal stages. Along College Street (extreme right) is the old grand- stand ond football field. In the back campus view, there is a track. Main Building has a bannister around the tower. The old tennis courts (near the grandstand) have since been removed. South Hall has no front porch. in the first class, that of 1875, and began service as a teacher of Latin, Greek, and English grammar. She was secretary of the faculty for many years and served under eight presidents. She taught her classes in the room which is now the office of Miss Sarah Castle, dean and registrar. Her chapel talks were always a source of inspiration and delight to col- lege students. She and her brother, J onathan, who taught science, together with President James Unthank, were the backbone of the college for many critical years. She served the college for over forty years, giving her life to its upbuilding. Teacher Ellen lived in the home at the corner of Fife Avenue and John Street, recently purchased by the College. There is no tangible memorial erected to the memory and service of this noble character. She gave substantially of her possessions to the college in that the two cottages near Denver Hall were her gifts. It is time that a memorial room be included in some of our new buildings, ney, aes. wher e pictures and bronze tablets of our benefactors can be displayed. In Wilmington College’s hall of fame, the name of Teacher Ellen Wright should be placed first and highest. The Campus The Campus was originally the fair grounds for Clinton County and vicinity. The original site, seventeen and one-fourth acres, was pur- chased in 1866 by the Garvin brothers, and a short time later sixteen acres more were purchased from Thomas C. Morris. Unfortunately the early trustees sold off a considerable part of the campus for building lots, many of which have been repurchased by succeeding trustees. The campus has always been a grove with many trees. Only a few of the original trees remain. There were many oaks, beech, elm, and walnuts, most of which have fallen. The two oaks, one east of the library and the other in front of the president’s home on College Street, belong to the original flora. A major portion of the trees are soft maple, which have been set out from time to time. The double row of maples on the south side of the campus were planted by the students and faculty. Un- fortunately, in the beginning, there was not an overall plan for the loca- tion of buildings. Such a prospectus is now made but it will take many years to carry it to completion. The earlier campus had a fence built in front with a turnstile at the northwest walk leading to College Hall. The turnstile remained there for a time unused, serving as a relic of the past. There were fences on the southern half of the campus so that cows could be pastured. A group of indignant students once tore the fences down so that their campus could not be used as a cow pasture! The athletic field was located on the southwest section of the campus for many years. The field was rolling, with a gully through the middle, until the field was graded in 1910. There were many trees which were in the way of football and baseball. Occasionally a tree would be mys- teriously cut down, causing protest by the faculty and trustees. Wide gravel walks leading from Fife Avenue to College Hall and from the east door of College Hall to Twin Ash Hall served the pedestrians up to 1906, when cement walks were made. The college oval was surrounded by a narrow, muddy, gravel drive for many years, until it was widened and hard surfaced only a few years ago. The campus has a natural topog- raphy and flora which makes it one of the beauty spots in Ohio. College Hall The first and most important structure on the campus is the College Hall, which was erected by the founders in the period of 1866-1871. It was an incompleted building in the period of Franklin College, only the first floor being finished. In 1870-71, after the purchase by the Society of Friends, it was completed and remains much the same as the original structure with rearrangement of some rooms. The original building had a large auditorium on the third floor with a large stage, provided with dressing rooms on the west side and with a seating capacity of 750 people. This auditorium was used for special college chapels, college commence- ments, college plays, lecture courses and other public gatherings. It was pa,� He sometimes used aS a gymnasium for basketball games. This large room was partitioned in 1920 during the administration of J. Edwin Jay for the use of Home Economics and Art Departments. The southwest room now occupied by the Commercial Department, was once a gymnasium for physical education, later used as a shop, and later as a practice room for the Music Department. The southeast room of the Commercial Depart- ment was once the Dorian room, being fitted with a roster and stage for literary activity and debate. The third floor rooms were used as a dorm- itory for students and faculty in the earlier days, before the erection of. Twin Ash and South Halls. The heat for the College Hall was supplied by stoves, until furnaces were installed in 1898. The science laboratories were once located on the second floor of College Hall. The chemistry laboratory was in the present language room; the stock room was in the location of the present ladies’ rest room; Room 25 was the location of the science lecture room in which were physics and biology tables and desks. Biology tables were once built around the north and west walls of this room. The College Library was located in a large room directly above the old chapel. When the chemistry laboratory was moved to Bailey Hall, the present language room was made into a stock room for the growing library. When the library building was erected in 1941, and put in use, the old library room was partitioned into the present class rooms. Room 28 was the Dorian Room during an early period and was later Bertha Peelle Arthur’s language room for many years, the Dorian Room being moved to the third floor. Room 26 was one large room for his- tory and Bible. President Brown’s office, in 1906, was the small room at the east end of the hall on the second floor of College Hall, now occupied by the pub- licity office. This was the only office on the campus at that time. Each professor had a given room for his or her use, both as an office and classroom. On the first floor, the room now the Registrar’s office, was the Latin room of Teacher Ellen Wright, later becoming Professor Galliett’s French room, and still later Dr. Hall’s history room. Teacher Ellen’s Latin room was once the scene of a tragic accident. During the early days, the long smooth bannisters on the stairways lead- ing to the second floors tempted the students to slide down them. In 1899, Ethel Sparks, sliding down the bannister of the east stairway with her arms full of books, fell off the rail and struck her head on the floor below. She was conscious for a time and was taken to Teacher Ellen’s Latin room, where she died the same afternoon from concussion of the brain. This was one of the saddest occasions in the history of the college. Room 14, now occupied by Dr. Hall, was the mathematics room with all the available wall space covered with blackboard. The room now occupied by the business office was the office and class room of President Unthank before 1903. The room now occupied by President Marble as his office was the College Parlor, and was used for receptions and other social activities. It was later used by the Kiu Kiun Kia, a girls’ debating society, and seats were built all around the wall for their use. During President Brown’s administration, the president’s of- fice was moved from the second floor of College Hall to the Physics room in the newly erected Bailey Hall where it remained for a time. President Jay moved the office to the room now occupied by the business office where it remained until he moved it to its present location. The registrar’s of- fice, with Marguerite Mitchell as registrar, was for many years in part of the office now occupied by the business office. The present chapel room in College Hall was a study room equipped with conventional school desks used by the College preparatory depart- ment and for chapel. President Jay had the seats removed and the opera chairs installed. It was the college chapel until it was partitioned to take care of the recent influx of students. The pictures above the win- dows and in the front of the room are the work and gift of Prof. Harri- son Halle of the Art Department. This room is the one place on the campus that is most revered by alumni and old students, since it was the center of college activities for over sixty years. Twin Ash Hall When Wilmington College was founded, the lot now occupied by Twin Ash Hall, Bailey Hall, and South Hall was known as “Madden’s thicket,” where grew dogwood, sumachs, red bud, and saplings of vari- ous kinds. The botany classes went there to gather wild tlowers, where grew May apple, Sweet Williams, and Spring Beauties. The only trees remaining are a few locust trees near Fife Avenue. Whittier Place, earlier known as Franklin Street, had not been laid out. Elwood Mad- den erected Twin Ash Hall in 1871-72 as a private enterprise and lived in it the first year while it was being finished. President Estes and his family moved into the newly completed building in 18738, as did several girls who had their own club system of boarding. The first matron in charge of the girls’ dormitory was Kizzie But- ler, who continued her service there for eight years. The Clinton County Building and Loan Association had possession of Twin Ash Hall from 1873-1875 at which time Dayton Townsend, of Martinsville, Ohio, pur- chased it and was its owner for many years. It was owned for a time by Thomas Davis, of Leesburg, who later sold it to Fred and Bessie Bal- lard. It was sold by them to the college in 1904 for $4000. It was during President Hodgin’s administration in the summer of 1914 that the cement veranda was added, and it served a useful purpose for the congregation of students when Twin Ash was a student center. The north end of the present recreation room was the original dining room and to the south was the kitchen. Later, in 1919, the present mat- ron’s quarters were added with a new kitchen adjoining it. The o.i kitchen was added to the dining space, forming the present recreation room. The third story was added to Twin Ash in the summer of 1920; the entire building was redecorated and refurnished. This was made pos- sible through the generosity of Mary Cadwallader Adams. Mrs. Adams was the daughter of Phoebe Cadwallader, who was one of the early matrons of Twin Ash. Mrs. Adams is one of the largest donors to Wil- mington College, having given to the college her entire estate of over $50,000. There is no building named for her and no bronze tablet to pre- serve her memory. Twin Ash could: very appropriately be named the Mary Adams Hall for Girls. —9R i South Hall South Hall was the third structure erected on the campus during the administration of Benjamin Trueblood. It was built in 1876 for the sum of $5000 raised by popular subscription. In each room was a coal grate for heating, as is now evidenced by many chimneys covered by tin on the present roof. The students had separate coal bins in the back yard. Bae building had a kitchen and dining room at the east side on the first oor. Richard Green was the first boy to engage a room there. Hannah Farquhar was the first matron of South Hall. To the rear of South Hall was a barn in which day students, and stu- dents who drove home over week ends, kept their horses and buggies. Misplaced horses and buggies about the campus and in class rooms were a common occurrence in those days. Once a student, who is now a pro- fessor of chemistry in an eastern college, returned to his room in South Hall to find a horse leisurely eating hay from a manger, and upon in- vestigation found his books, bed, and table down in the horse’s stall. The original South Hall had no veranda, the present one being erected in 1929 during President Skinner’s administration. South Hall is a famous old place filled with pleasant memories. The day students took the liberty of using this building for a resting place be- tween classes. When any misdemeanor was committed about the college, the authorities usually went there first for investigation. Housemother Barry lived there for many years and endeared herself to the boys for whom she had the deepest affection. Were she now living, she could tell the students many interesting happenings. Bailey Hall This substantial reinforced concrete structure was erected in 1908-09. It was made possible by Mr. and Mrs. A. I. Bailey, who gave $15,000 for the erection of a building with the stipulation that $30,000 more be raised and added to the endowment for its maintenance. The architect and builder was L. L. Compton, a local man who erected it for $13,000. Dr. Marion Hollingsworth, who was professor of chemistry and physics 1908- 14, designed and assembled the chemistry laboratory desks in this building. The Home Economics Department was installed in the basement rooms of Bailey Hall during President Hodgins’ administration in 1913- 14. The east basement room was the foods laboratory and the north basement rooms were for dining and serving rooms. The Gymnasium-Auditorium This structure has a very interesting history. In 1892, the Society of Friends of Center, Miami, and Fairfield Quarterly Meetings withdrew from Indiana Yearly Meeting and formed Wilmington Yearly Meeting. One large tent and two or three others were spread on the south part of the campus and served the Yearly Meeting sessions for the first few years. During one of the sessions, a storm came up and rain poured through the leaking tent. While the rain was pouring, the congrega- tion sang “There Shall be Showers of Blessings” and took up a collec- e908 tion to start a fund for the erection of a permanent structure. Under the supervision of Albert I. Bailey, the building was erected in 1896 by Mr. Wall for the sum of $4500. The early auditorium had a series of doors completely around the building which were hinged at the top and provided with an attached pole for raising the door to a horizontal position. This gave an open air effect to the auditorium. There was a sloping earthen floor covered with sawdust. This sawdust provided a suitable habitat for fleas and other distracting pests. The sloping floor was provided with hard wooden benches, some of which leaned forward ‘causing much discom- fort to the person seated. The building was unheated and could be used only in moderate weather. The stage was large and located on the west side of the building. When the need for a gymnasium arose in 1920, the Board of Trustees engaged an architect to draw up plans for a modern gymnasium. The plans were drawn and blue prints made, but after costs were considered it was decided to remodel the open air auditorium. President Jay, with the help of Clinton Davis, carried through the remodeling job during the school year of 1920-21 at a cost of $25,000. This structure has been of great value to the school and has withstood well the hard usage to which it has been subjected. The partitioning of the south end was done just before the inauguration of Dr. Marble in 1947. FRONT CAMPUS emotes Kathryn Denver Memorial This building was erected in 1924, during the administration of Presi- dent Jay. It was made possible by the gift of $25,000 by the Honorable Matthew R. Denver and his wife for the erection of a memorial to their daughter, who was accidentally killed in 1918 by a train, while she was on a field trip. It was planned at first to build a smaller dormitory ($25,000) with- out a dining room. The authorities had planned an annex to the dining room in Twin Ash, but, upon second consideration, found it to be more economical to add to the $25,000 gift and erect one structure, including both a dormitory and a dining hall. This was a wise decision, in that it made a larger and more serviceable building. The total cost of the struc- ture and equipment was $65,000. Many of the rooms in Denver Hall were furnished by donors whose name plates can now be seen on different doors. The infirmary and hos- pital rooms there were furnished and equipped by Dr. Elizabeth Shrieves, an alumna of the college. Douglas Hall The wood frame residence building east of Bailey Hall on Ludovic Street was once the home of Ellis Ross and family, and was known as Ross Hall in earlier days when many college boys roomed there. It was purchased by the college in 1919, and named Douglas Hall, in memory of John Henry Douglas, a Friends minister who was active in the found- ing of Wilmington College in 1870. This dormitory was first used by girls who wished to do light house- keeping. It caught fire on one occasion and was in danger of being de- stroyed. It is now the location of the college infirmary. Music Building The building occupied by the Music Department was purchased from Samuel Glass during President Jay’s administration in 1919 and made into apartments which a member of the faculty and the Delta Omega Theta sorority rented for a number of years. Because the sounds from the Music Department, then located on the third floor of College Hall, were dist urbing to the occupants of the library, which was directly be- neath, the Music Department was moved to this building in the middle thirties. As the department expanded, it was necessary for the college to use the small apartment and the sorority rooms connected with it. In 1948, considerable money was expended to make it more adequate for the needs of the department. The college broadcasting studio is now located in this building. The Observatory The telescope housed in this structure was made in 1882 by Levi T. Edwards, with the assistance of Milton Farquhar and Reynold Janney. Professor Edwards, as a student at Haverford College, had just previous- ly made a similar telescope for that college. Students raised $200 to purchase the twelve-inch reflecting lens of the present telescope. Before the building was erected in 1888, the telescope was kept in Teacher Ellen’s Ate THE OBSERVATORY BRL eS Latin room where it could be easily carried out for use. The first obser- vatory was a wooden affair to be replaced in 1892 by the present brick structure. The Library Building For many years the college library was housed on the west wing of the second floor of College Hall. It was fairly adequate, but the credit- ing associations demanded that a separate building be provided for li- brary purposes. To meet this demand, a successful campaign for raising funds was carried out in 1940. Mr. and Mrs. Grant Fairley gave $10,000 to the library fund to start the drive. Mrs. Leanna Gilbert, of New Vi- THE LIBRARY enna, Ohio, and Mr. and Mrs. Henry Pfeiffer, of New York City, added substantially to the needed amount. Members of the Board of Trustees and faculty, as well as many other interested friends, gave generously to the project for they felt the urgent need for a good library building. The building was constructed in 1941 under the supervision of Dr. W. R. Pyle. The cost of the structure was $42,000. It is a building to which additions can be made as the need arises. Industrial Arts Building The Federal Works Agency, through the surplus property administra- tion, gave to the college a building formerly used by the ordnance depart- THE INDUSTRIAL ARTS BUILDING ment. The only cost to the college for the structure was the cost of moving it here and the expense of building a foundation and floors. The government, through the State Department of Surplus Property, gave to the college thousands of dollars’ worth of valuable machinery to equip the department. Prof. Menzo Stark reconditioned the equipment so that the college now has a modern department. Since the erection of the building, a power plant for the machinery and heating has been added. The building was begun in 1947 and finished the following year. The First Gymnasium During the earlier periods of Wilmington College, the only gymnasium available was the present typing room on the third floor. In 1894, the Forensic, boys’ debating society, carried on a campaign for the building of a gymnasium. John Orebaugh, now a business man of Wilmington, Alvin Peelle, and Luther Hunt led the movement. They collected $327 which was used for materials and labor. A small frame structure 30x48 was erected by U. B. (Buck) Carroll and served the college until 1906-07 when a second drive was put on to enlarge the structure to 56x84, with a seating capacity of 400 on the west side. Mod- ern toilets and dressing rooms were built on the south side at that time. This gymnasium retained the east balcony from the first gym, which was a suspended affair seating about 50 people. The socially elite of the student body usually reserved this balcony for their dates at the games. The floor of the first gymnasium had no out-of-bounds on any side, re- sulting in rough play. The remodeled structure had out-of-bounds on the bleacher side only. The basketball forwards learned to climb the wall of the end zone and rise almost to the elevation of the basket before dropping in the goal. Ot. ow The Old Grand Stand During the fall of 1909, a campaign was launched by the students of the Wilmington College Athletic Association for a better playing field. The athletic field was then located on the southwestern part of the college campus and was sloping, with a ravine through the center of it, making it unsuitable for football and baseball. Under the guidance of Prof. Thomas Bales, the Student Athletic Association raised a sum of $1500 for grading the athletic field and erecting a grand stand. This they did by selling a $10 athletic ticket to students and friends of the col- lege and through the sale of refreshments at the Centennial Homecoming of the City of Wilmington in 1910. A grand stand, a large temporary struc- ture, made of heavy oak timbers, resting on locust posts, was erected which had a capacity of about 1000 people. The structure had a roof over it to protect the spectators from inclement weather. The athletic field was tile-drained the next year as a student project. President Brown was there to give the students inspiration, and George Locke, custodian of buildings and grounds, supervised the work. The grand stand eventually became unsafe and was torn down after football was temporarily discontinued. THE GRAND STAND The College Rock The college rock is a land mark that interests new students and vis- iting folks. It is a glacial boulder, of metamorphosed granite, and is full of beautiful garnets. It was brought from Canada by the glacier and deposited on the grounds of the Clinton County Infirmary, where its mate, a much larger granite boulder, may be seen. It was placed on its present location by the class of 1906, under the supervision of Leo McCoy and his classmates. The Millstones On either side of the walk, at the east entrance of College Hall, lie two fine, old millstones. They were quarried in Vinton County near McArthur, Ohio, and were hauled by ox team 75 miles to the mill of Henry Nordyke on Turtle Creek, Highland County. They were used for grinding meal and flour for many years. When the mill was aban- doned, they were recovered by James Terrell and lay in the yard of his home until 1894, when they were placed in their present location by Tasco Terrell (95), who was later president of the Board of Trustees. a - Bee “ 4 a3 ‘ 5 Cre 2 | aes , _ = = ; ipod a e Sy € ee ve a ew 1 Da TMT , Yr - = The History of College Departments In gleaning the historical facts and dating them for the proper pe- riods, the author of this article was attracted by the courses of study and the offerings in the various departments. The college could well be divided into periods as shown by the developments and changes taking place in the different departments. The school was divided into the preparatory and collegiate depart- ments. The preparatory department served a real need in secondary education, as high schools were not too numerous, especially in rural areas. The enrollment in the preparatory department greatly exceeded that of the collegiate department and perhaps gave much greater service in the earlier days. It not only prepared students for college, but gave the general educational training that was considered sufficient in that day for ordinary business occupations. Many students who wished to wal become elementary teachers took this secondary training to prepare themselves for the examinations which qualified them for teaching. Many of the preparatory students stayed on to take the collegiate course, but the majority did not do so. Without doubt, the stiff language and math- ematics requirements of the early periods kept many of them from con- tinuing. Many educators will state that this was a good separation, but most modern educators think differently. Foreign Language Department In both the preparatory and collegiate departments the students had a choice of taking either the classical or the scientific courses. Both these courses were well defined and adhered to strictly. If one were a sopho- more, he was in classes with all other sophomores, such that students were definitely placed in class groups, making class spirit very strong. The scientific course was much the same as the classical course, differing slightly in the required amounts of foreign language, mathematics and science. In those days, a knowledge of the Greek and Latin languages was considered necessary for a cultural education. To receive a Bache- lor of Arts degree, it was necessary to meet certain Greek requirements. Latin and modern languages were not permitted to be substituted for the Greek requirements. Should a student not wish to study Greek, he had SKY VIEW Picture taken by Kersey Hale and Homer Lundy of the Wilmington Flying Service. = ae only one choice, and that was to take the Bachelor of Science degree. Quoting from an ‘early catalog: “Students who wish to pursue the Latin course but not the Greek will be allowed to substitute Latin for some of the scientific courses and graduate with the Bachelor of Science de- gree.” This requirement for graduation shows how firmly entrenched were the Greek scholars of that day. The demand for Greek gradually dwindled, until in 1915 it was dropped from the course of study. The study of Latin under Ellen Wright was much more popular than Greek and was offered as late as 1928. The ancient languages were studied for mental discipline, for the history of early civilization, and for the help given in the derivation of English words. Other courses were substituted which gave the mental discipline and knowledge of Greek and Roman civilizations, but no other course has been given since that gives the student an understanding of the deriva- tion of English words. The modern languages, German and French, were given in 1874, the date of the arrival of James B. Unthank, who was an able modern language scholar. These languages were regarded as the science lan- guages and a study of them was required for a science degree. It was not until 1904, with the coming of Bertha Peelle Arthur, that the mod- ern languages received department status. Mrs. Arthur was an excel- lent teacher and inspired the college youth of her day. She left Wil- mington College to join the staff of the French Department of the Ohio State University where she remained until retirement. Spanish was first taught in the college by Prof. Bertha Arthur in 1915 and has continued with a steady growth to the present day. Miss Elsie McCoy was a teacher of Latin and the modern languages from 1912 to 1919, and was successor to Ellen Wright in the Latin department. Profs. Blanche McNemar and Florence Locke came to the Language De- partment in 1946. Clementina Martinez (’46), a native of Victoria, Mex- ico, came to the Spanish faculty in 1947. Mathematics and Astronomy Departments Mathematics was a highly developed science before the natural sciences came into being. Courses in mathematics held a prominent place from the very first and held a position alongside the foreign languages. The courses in mathematics given by Prof. Allen Terrell in 1874 did not differ materially from those of the present day except in the length of time given to each course. A study of mathematics is supposed to give mental discipline as no other course can give; thus college algebra was required for many years of all students who expected to take a Bache- lor’s degree. This was a college requirement as late as 1908. Mechanical drawing attached to the mathematics department was given in the early nineties by Prof. W. C. Sayers, mathematician, artist, and musician. It was offered again in 1916 by Prof. J. O. Villars and was brought to its present form in 1921 when ,the pre-engineering course was established by Dr. W. R. Pyle. The study of astronomy was given a prominent place in the early his- tory of the college. before the development of the natural sciences, and 39) was attached to the department of mathematics. For many years, astron- omy was a subject required of all seniors before graduation. In 1903, Annie E. Terrell gave $1000 for the development of astronomy. Department of Natural Sciences Brief courses in chemistry, botany, and geology were taught in the college at its early beginning. In 1878, Jonathan Wright, a brother of Ellen Wright, began his twenty-year term. It was this professor who established the Department of Natural Science, including the physical and biological sciences. He developed the courses until there was a full- year course in general chemistry and qualitative analysis, in botany, and in zoology. Physics and geology each were given in two-term courses. It was he who constructed and equipped the science laboratories on the second floor of College Hall. A water system, with a large tank in a dressing room on the third flood to catch rain water for the laboratories, was constructed. He was instrumental in building the cabinet in con- nection with the library for the preserving of natural science materials. There has perhaps never been a more versatile professor than Jonathan Wright in the employ of the college. In 1893, Dr. Milton Todhunter, of Jamestown,, Ohio, gave $8,750 as a fund to establish a chair of chemistry. The erection of Bailey Hall in 1908-09 gave an increased stimulus to the study of natural sciences. At that time, the department was divided into the Physical Science Department, with Marion Hollingsworth (1908- 14) as its head, and the Biological Department, with Allen Conger (1908-12) as its head. Dr. O. F. Boyd became head of the Chemistry Department in the fall of 1914. In 1915, physics was separated from chemistry and added to the Mathematics Department, with J. Densmore Wood (1915-18) as its head. Prof. Earl Martin was the head of the mathematics and physics department from 1918-21. Dr. W. R. Pyle entered his present position in 1921. Dr. F. O. Hazard became head of the Biology Department in 1928, succeeding Dr. S. A. Watson. Prof. Wilbur Wilson came in 1947 as associate professor of chemistry. Prof. Brooke W. Morgan came in 1948 from Bluffton College as assistant professor of mathematics and physics. Dr. Richard Bath was added to the Biology staff in 1946. Physiology and anatomy as a course of study came in at an early date. As early as 1882, when the Parisian human skeleton was acquired, mention is made of a study of human osteology, which was not a separate course, but included in the study of zoology. In 1904, Dr. Frank A. Peelle, a practicing physician in Wilmington, first taught this course and continued in the service of the college for over forty years, in the ca- pacity of teacher and college physician. No more loyal person ever served the college than Dr. Peelle. He has given much to the college, not only in service but of his own personal means. He has made a higher education possible to many worthy students through the medium of scholarships. Geology was taught in the Natural Science Department for many years but never received departmental status until 1947 when Prof. Ren- dall Rhoades headed the department. As Wilmington College is lo- cated in an area where there are many geological formations, the de- partment should grow and develop. The reorganization and re-classifi- Ape SKY VIEW Picture taken by Kersey Hale and Homer Lundy of the Wilmington Flying Service. cation of materials in the museum, which is now taking place, will greatly add to the facilities of that department. The science departments have been conducted by a comparatively few individuals who have given long terms of service. This has given con- tinuity and stability to the science departments. At the present time there is need for more room in which the science department can grow and expand. The English Department In the early days, history and English were included in the same de- partment. Latin and English were also taught by Ellen Wright. Offerings in English were very few and did not compare with the offerings in for- eign languages. At that time, more emphasis was given to grammar and rhetoric than was given to the study of English literature. It was not until 1899 that a professor of English was employed in the person of Richard Cadbury Brown, at which time several courses in English literature were added. Mary Mills was for many years (1905-24) head of the department of English, and made English into one of the major courses of study. She was a capable teacher and a source of ae es great inspiration to her pupils. She had the rare art of teaching and entertaining in the same process. She taught the one and only college English course that the writer of this history had time to take. He was so busy studying German and French that he could not take time out to learn his mother tongue, much to his regret. However, it can be stated that he learned much English grammar through the medium of Latin grammar. Many English professors have come and gone since Mary Mills left in 1924, each adding to the growth of the department. Prof. B. M. Hiatt was made an assistant professor of English in 1944. In 1946, Prof. George W. Bowman came from Indiana University to head the department. Department of Religion and Philosophy As Wilmington: College is a church-affiliated college, emphasis has always been placed on the study of Bible and religion. Benjamin True- blood (1874-79) was a professor of Bible and philosophy. He taught the mental and moral sciences, which included psychology, ethics, logic, and philosophy. These courses were taught by professors in other de- partments for many years. In 1897-98,-Emma Spencer Townsend was employed to give a complete Bible course which would prepare minis- ters, but the demand was not sufficient to continue it for long. There was not another professor employed for the Bible and Philosophy De- partment until the coming of Samuel Haworth in 1907, at which time it was given departmental standing. Dr. Wendell G. Farr served in this department for over twenty years (1922-44). Prof. Jesse A. Stanfield became head of the department in 1945. Irene Hunnicutt gave $2500 for the maintenance of the Bible De- partment. Catherine Compton gave $3000 for the same purpose. There have always been Bible requirements for the complet ion of a degree. The religious life of the college has been one of its important features. Compulsory chapel is one of the traditional requirements which the college has had since the founding of the school. The YMCA and the YWCA societies were organized in 1903 and have functioned all through the years. Gospel teams have been active in the college from its early beginning. Department of History The study of history has always had an important place in the courses offered. In the early days, it was usually given by the profes- sor who taught the ancient languages, Bible, or English. In 1906, Dr. O. J. Thatcher, a former professor of medieval history at University of Chicago, came to the department. His coming increased the interest in the subject, as Dr. Thatcher was a world authority on certain phases of church history. He was co-author with Prof. Ferdinand Schwill, of University of Chicago, in the publication of Thatcher and Schwill’s “Eu- rope in the Middle Ages.” History was departmentalized and brought up to its present stand- ard by Dr. Willis Hall, who became head of the department in 1926. Department of Home Economics The Home Economics Department was established in 1916 with Miss Myra Binford as the organizer and head. She served the college both tae as teacher and dietitian of Twin Ash boarding hall. She was succeeded in 1916 by Edith Thoren Channel who, during her thirty years of service, has developed the department to its present status. It is now recognized by the State Department of Education as meeting the requirements for giving a major in Home Economics. She is especially talented in the household arts and is an outstanding teacher in that field. Mrs. Channel is retiring at the end of the present semester to give full time to her home duties. She will be greatly missed, both as a teacher and as a leader in college social events. Depariment of Speech Public speaking and debate were extra-curricular activities in the early days of the college and were fostered by literary societies and de- bating clubs. In the nineties, there were listed courses in elocution, which were very popular for a time. Public speaking as a department was not established until 1916, when Hazel Easton from the Northwestern School of Oratory was brought to the college by President Jay. Many capable faculty members have served in this department, but Helen McCoy is the person who is best known for her presentation of college plays over a period of twenty years. Prof. Hugh G. Heiland came to this depart- ment in 1947 to succeed Miss McCoy. The Art Department Courses in art appeared in the curriculum of the college back in the nineties. Mrs. Thomas J. Moon taught courses in art regularly from 1891 to 1904. For several years courses were not offered, but interest was revived in 1917 when Prof. Harrison A. Halle came to the college. He has given art a permanent place in the college curriculum. Department of Social Science Social science courses were offered occasionally in the nineties but it was not until after the coming of President Brown in 1903 that they were given regularly. President Brown was a teacher of social science and gave interesting courses. They did not have departmental status until 1919 with the coming of Prof. Hadley Kelsey. Interest has grown in the subject until it is now one of our major departments. Prof. Donald R. Steele, associate professor in social science, came to the college in 1946. Dr. Warren Griffith, the present head of the department, came in 1948. Commercial Department The commercial department had its beginning in 1892 when Sara Kirk, a former county court reporter, began teaching commercial sub- jects. She continued with her teaching to 1903. For several years com- mercial courses were given intermittently, until in 1926, under the ad- ministration of President Jay, Catherine Herring organized the Depart- ment of Commerce. Miss Evalyn Hibner, now head of the department, began service in 1937. She was a capable secretary to the president for a few years before taking over the Commercial Department. 5 Department of Music Music was first taught at the college in 1886 by Mrs. A. K. Sargent. In 1890, Mrs. Eva Holland came and continued until 1901. Mrs. Frank A. Peelle taught in 1903-04. There was a dormant period in music from 1904 until 1915 when it was reorganized by Miss Ruth Brundage. There have been a number of capable instructors in this department and it has had a steady continuous growth. Prof. Rolla Foley, the present head of the department, came in 1947. Prof. Elizabeth Peterson came in 1946, and Alma Kelsey and Arol Noble came in 1948. Department of Business Administration This department was organized in 1921 during President Jay’s ad- ministration. Prof. Rex Weston was the first head of the department in 1921-22 and was followed by Robert R. Bangham, 1922-23. After a few years, this department was absorbed by the social science department. In 1946, the department was re-established with John T. Walter as its head. It is now being reorganized and headed by Dr. Caleb Smith, of Swarthmore College, who came to the college in 1948. SKY VIEW Pictures taken by Kersey Hale and Homer Lundy of the Wilmington Flying Service. afase Department of Education Wilmington College has educated many teachers since the beginning in 1871. Many elementary teachers were attracted by the famous gram- mar and rhetoric courses of Teacher Ellen Wright. A high percentage of Wilmington College graduates have entered the profession of teach- ing. In the spring of 1901, a course in pedagogy was offered and con- tinued for several years. It was an education course done up in a small package, covering the principles of teaching, methods of teaching, school management, and history of education. It was a forerunner of our modern Education Department. The Holbrooks at Lebanon National Normal University were discussing modern education problems fifty years , ahead of their day. The impact of their teaching reached all the sur- rounding colleges. The Holbrooks founded their school in 1855 and had hundreds of students crowding their doors from all over the United States. Former Secret ary of State Cordell Hull came up from Tennessee to at- tend that school. samuel Hodgin started the first summer session in 1914 which was largely for the benefit of teachers. Before he left in the summer of 1915, he employed Dr. Joseph T. Williams who came to organize a department of education. Dr. Williams developed a Schoolmaster’s Club from the faculty of the college and of the high school for the purpose of discussing trends and problems of modern education. It was in that club that the writer of this history received his introduction to the problems of.teach- er education. In 1917, Lebanon National Normal University closed because of fi- nancial trouble. David E. Dunham, president of Wilmington College Board of Trustees, lived near Lebanon and, with the aid of President Jay succeeded in effecting a merger with the Normal University. The assets of Lebanon University were its alumni and students who had to have an alma mater to establish their credits. All the records of that school are now in our vaults and an occasional reference is made to them. Many of the old students and graduates of Lebanon National Normal University came to Wilmington College to finish either an incompleted course or to take a second degree after gaining residence at Wilmington College. Russell Olt, a young professor at Lebanon, came to Wilmington Col- lege in 1917 as dean-registrar and was for many years a valued member of our faculty. He was conducting extension courses at Lebanon at the time of its merger. These centers were taken over, as was Queen City College of Pharmacy in Cincinnati. The College continued with the ex- tension work, but dropped the pharmacy school after running it for a few years. The Education Department grew rapidly after 1917. Most of the members of the faculty were called on to conduct extension courses for which there was great demand. Those were strenuous days, which only the older members of the faculty can appreciate. From the very beginning, the education department was certified by the State Department of Education for the training of elementary and high school teachers. The BS in Education degree was first given in 1923 and has been a much-used degree since that date. The courses of study in this department had to be approved to meet state requirements and the training of. the faculty members who taught these courses had pr AR Se to meet certain standards. This standardizing process affected not only the members of the education faculty but resulted in better teachers for the entire college. Dr. H. H. Vannorsdall came to the college in 1920. He was a mas- ter teacher and was efficient in his duties as dean. He served as head of the Education Department for over twenty years, and raised the standard of the department to a point where Wilmington-trained teach- ers were in great demand. A placement bureau was established by Dr. H. H. Vannorsdall in the early twenties which gives valuable service to graduates. To this bureau has been added the service of personnel guid- ance which is now directed by the Dean of Women, Muriel Specht, former- ly o f Oberlin College. Miss Mary Hoskins came to the college in 1925. She was a seasoned teacher from having been an elementary teacher, and was well versed in the methods and problems of her profession. She had been director of the Clinton County Normal School which existed at New Vienna for a time. She has organized and developed the elementary teacher train- ing and has helped to train hundreds of successful teachers. Prof. Eu- gene Derby, serving in the capacity of teacher and supervisor of teacher training, came to the Education Department in 1946. Mrs. Blanche Mc- Nemar came to the college in 1946 and is now one of the supervisors of teacher training. Dr. Henry G. Williams came to the college in 1927 and was a former dean of education at Ohio University. He was thoroughly versed in the problems of education from his training under Alfred and Heber Hol- brook at Lebanon National Normal University and from his deanship in the College of Education at Ohio University. He had a burning desire to effect a lasting merger between the graduates of Lebanon and those of Wilmington College. In the late summer of 1927, he arranged a long caravan of Lebanonites, headed by a truck on which was placed the old chapel bell from Lebanon NNU. Famous Lebanon alumni from near and far came to the college campus for a jamboree. The idea of a Holbrook Memorial Building was advanced and much sentiment was created for it to be placed on the Wilmington campus. Plans were made and the movement started. The sudden unexpected death of Dr. Williams brought an end to the plans. Dr. Williams started the School of Education, sep- arating it from the College of Liberal Arts, appointing a separate Dean of Education in the person of Dr. H. H. Vannorsdall. Dr. B. O. Skinner, who succeeded Dr. Henry G. Williams, was a pub- lic school man and emphasized teacher education. Dr. Walter L. Col- lins, who succeeded Dr. B. O. Skinner, was a member of the staff at the Teachers’ College of the University of Cincinnati. He was a graduate of Lebanon National Normal University and had the Holbrook spirit. He was successful in securing the admittance of Wilmington College into the American Association of Teachers Colleges. Dr. Watson placed less emphasis on teacher training and education and reduced the School of Education to the status of a department. Dean Vannorsdall resigned, to be succeeded by Dr. Loren Hadley, who served for eighteen months. Dr. Hadley is now personnel director of Kent State University. Dr. Vannorsdall is head of the Education Department of Ohio Northern Uni- versity, Ada, Ohio. Prof. J. W. McDonald, now director of personnel at Grove City College, Pa., served until 1947, at which time, Dr. Graydon as, oe W. Yaple, superintendent of Hamilton Schools, Colgate, N Y ’ came head of the Department of Education. Sean ane Industrial Arts Department The college had a physical shop for the benefit of students who wished to work on projects back in 1880. This shop was located in connection with the chemistry laboratory on the second floor of College Hall. This laboratory had a turning lathe and many common shop tools sufficient for doing ordinary projects. The shop was established by Prof. Levi T. Edwards, who was mechanically minded, having had training in such work at Haverford College. | The first real mechanical training shop where students worked for college credit was established in Bailey Hall by Dr. W. R. Pyle in 1921-22. The present laboratory of Professor Rhoades was the location of that shop. Two large wood lathes were purchased and turning was a popu- lar course for a time. The work in this shop was largely in wood. It was carried on for a few years there until the department was taken to the high school with Prof. C. B. McCollister taking over the depart- ment. For several years the high school co-operated with the college in maintaining a laboratory which was used mostly in the summer months for students who wished to be industrial arts teachers. Eventually the shop was given up. Industrial arts was not resumed until 1946 when Menzo Stark came to the college to develop the courses. The depart- ment was located in the Greystone building on Ludovic Street in 1946-47. The Industrial Arts Building was erected in 1947 and made ready for use. The building was formerly the property of the government and was part of an ordnance plant in Sandusky, Ohio. It was erected by the Federal Works Agency at no cost to the college except the moving, the foundation, and the floor. Much valuable machinery was given to the college through the surplus property division of the State Department of Education. This equipment has been repaired and put in good con- dition so that it makes a first class shop which is a credit to the college. The department is certified by the State Department of Education for giving a major in Industrial Arts. Interest in this department is growing rapidly. Prof. Edward J. Kornman was added to the Industrial Arts Depart- ment staff in 1947 and gives courses in printing, photography, ceramics, and engineering drawing. Department of Physical Education There has been some form of athletic activity at the college since its founding. The early professors were usually trained in calisthenics and other gymnastic exercises. Early in the history of the college, the room now occupied by the typing class was well equipped with parallel bars, Indian clubs, dumb bells, a trapeze, ladders, and other equipment. Ruth Farquhar, who had taken special training in physical education, was the director of physical education and dean of the college in 1892. There was demand for a special building for gymnastics, such that a group of students led a movement to have one built. Their efforts were suc- cessful and a 30x48 structure was erected in 1896 south of College Hall at the site of the present library. This building stimulated interest in gymnasium activity, wrestling, boxing, and like sports. —47— Outdoor sports in the early days consisted of croquet, horseshoes, lawn tennis, and baseball. There were no teams organized for col- legiate competition until 1900. There were intramural teams in foot- ball, the members of which often played with the town team in the days of Stan Outcalt and the South brothers. The first intercollegiate football team was organized in 1900. Mem- bers of that team were Tom and Emery Bales, Gurney Terrell, Dave Carey, Carey Hodson, James Linton, William Stanton, Eber Spicer, Edgar Andrews, and their coach, Richard Cadbury Brown, from Haverford Col- lege. The big game of the season was on Thanksgiving Day, and was held in the Northend baseball park in the Terrell addition. The snow had to be shoveled from the field before the game could be played. The contest was with Lebanon National Normal University and Wilming- ton won by a criss-cross trick play with a score 6-0. It was not uncom- mon in that day for the coach to participate with his team, as did both Wilmington and Lebanon coaches in that game. Players were required to purchase their own football equipment. Richard Cadbury Brown was also a famous Indian club artist, and placed flashlights on his clubs to give demonstrations in a darkened room. Edgar Andrew, now a farmer in Iowa, was the football star of that day, being an outstanding open-field runner and an excellent punter. He would often send the ball into the end zone on the kick-off. As a punter, he could repeatedly kick a football over the Main College H all from north to south. This seems incredible, but it has been authenticated by a man whose veracity cannot be questioned. A famous football team played in the fall of 1902 of which Clayton Terrell was quarterback. They won all the games of the season, scoring 172 points to 6 points for their opponents. Prof. Burritt Hiatt was a quarterback on one of the early teams, and in a game with Cedarville Col- lege, becoming confused and forgetting the signal numbers of the plays, repeatedly called the only number he remembered which was the tele- phone number of his sweetheart, Pearl (later his wife). Prof. Thomas Bales, of the Mathematics Department, became athletic director in 1906 and remained until 1916. In the student days of the writer, there were many celebrated football athletes, among them Francis H,. Farquhar, an able quarterback and open field runner; Guy (Peany) Carr, an end capable of breaking up opponents’ plays; Horace (Uncle Henry) Townsend, who was student manager and able to collect and pay all expenses; and Raymond (Liz) Gray, who was an able place kicker, helping to win many games. Dr. O. J. Thatcher, of the History Department, was a success- ful football coach (1910-16). Charles R. Starbuck, of the Clinton County Bank, was an able center in football in the early days. The first organized basketball team was in 1903-04. Other sur- rounding colleges had not yet developed basketball so that the compe- tition was with town and YMCA teams. A noted game was with a Sa- bina town team, coached by Edgar Stranahan, a Bible professor and minister at Sabina Friends Meeting. Thomas Bales was the hero of that game. He threw the winning goal while lying on his back. The ball struck the ceiling and bounced into the basket just as the whistle blew. Another equally famous basketball team was that of the college girls who defeated Ohio State in 1906. The team members were Pearl Peelle Hiatt, Mary Barrett McVey, Ila Haworth McKay, Ethel Haw- kins Wall, Daisy Wright Rannells and Carrie Thornburg Mendenhall. ape That game was played in the large auditorium on the third floor of Col- lege Hall. The Wilmington girls had lost the first game at Ohio State, but succeeded in winning the home game after a furious struggle. A full-time coach was not employed by the college until 1919 when Neil Price came for one year, to be succeeded by Henry (Raspberry) Bogue who was coach when the present gymnasium was built (1920-21). In the fall of 1921, Fowler (Chic) Harper came, and developed two famous football teams. The outstanding player on these teams was a fullback, Walter Kurtzhalz, of Columbus, Ohio. In 1923, came the famous Charles W. (Shifty) Bolen, who had played on the Ohio State team and was selected all-Western Conference end. It was he who ran interference for the famous “Chic” Harley. Coach Bolen had many fine football and basketball teams and developed many star players, “Chuck” Weimer being the most celebrated in football and “Cal” Zigler and “Big Squirt” Fisher in basketball. There were many other athletes in this day, but if the writer mentions one of them, all would have to be mentioned in a spirit of fairness. Space does not permit naming all of them with their activities and prowess. Coach E. J. Steele succeeded Bolen in 1930. In 1932, Dr. Dalton Peelle coached the football team on which Fred Raizk played. This was the last football team until 1946. Coach Roscoe (Curley) Miller came in 1934 and coached a succession of winning basketball teams. Coach Miller entered the coast guard service in 1942, to be succeeded by J. K. Rash. Coach Harold Shelly came in 1946 and resumed football. Coach Fred Raizk came as football coach in the fall of 1947. Track and field events played an important part in college sports in the period from 1900-1917, but this sport was handicapped because of the lack of a suitable track. To add interest, the Honorable M. R. Denver gave a trophy cup, upon which the name of the outstanding track star for a given season would be engraved. The Denver Field Day was held annually beginning in 1905 and continued regularly until 1917. One was held later in 1921. Names of the winners are Russell Jay, Verne Rob- erts, Anan Kittrell, Raymond Gray, Harold Hiatt, Francis Farquhar, Joe Garrison, Frank Oren, Willard Wildman, Glenn Donohoo, John Smith, Richard Larkin, William Mussetter, and Robert Farquhar. The newly received “Carr Tropries” were presented by Guy (Peany) Carr, who was an excellent football and basketball athlete, graduating in 1909, and his brother, Herbert Carr, who was also an excellent football and basketball athlete, graduating in the class of 1917. The football trophy was first awarded to Joe Baugh as the outstanding football player of 1948, and the basketball trophy to Walt (Bill) Hobble as the out- standing basketball player of 1948-49. In the earlier days, the physical education courses were extra-curricu- lar, and it was not until after 1920 that they were given college credit. Physical education for girls has kept pace with that for the boys. Sev- eral well-trained directors of women’s physical education have come and gone. Sarah Castle, now our registrar and dean of faculty, was di- rector of women’s physical education when she first became a member of the faculty in 1942. Physical education has developed into well-organized departments from a group of miscellaneous activities. Students can now take majors and minors in these departments to prepare for coaching or athletic directors. i a , =—49== The writer has found the athletic department the most difficult of any to write up, as there has been so much to include and so many names of players who should be included in a complete history. Department of Journalism Journalism is the newest department on the campus. Courses in newspaper and magazine writing and problems were added to the cur- riculum in 1946, with all journalism under the direction of Prof. I. G. Hawk, who was at the same time Director of Public Relations. All journalism courses were formerly included in the English Department. An increasing demand from the journalism majors caused the Col- lege to set aside the Journalism Department under the chairmanship of Prof. Donald R. Steele, a graduate of the Northwestern University School of Journalism. After this time, Mr. Hawk devoted full-time to the Public Relations Department. In the fall of 1948, a complete journal- ism major was offered, with practical courses in printing and photo- graphy. These courses are offered in conjunction with the depart- mer by Professor Kornman of the Industrial Arts Department. There is an increasingly stronger tie between the Journalism De- partment, the Office of Public Relations, the journalism fraternity, and the publications. Societies and Clubs Societies and clubs played a more important part in the student life — during the earlier days than now. There were not the distracting out- side influences then to divert the student from participating in the varied activity programs. Nearly every student wishes to be identified with some group. The college classes were a distinct unit, so that much activity was centered around class groups. Literary societies and debat- ing clubs were supplementary to the work in the college classes and were led and guided by members of the faculty. The earliest society recorded is the Douglas Literary Society which was of short duration, being replaced by the Dorian Literary Society about 1877. The latter had a long period of useful service, continuing up to 1907. The Dorian Society was instrumental in starting the Music De- partment. They gave entertainments, the proceeds of which were used to purchase two pianos. The Browning Literary Society, founded by Teacher Ellen Wright, which consisted of students, faculty, and people outside who were interested in literature, existed for many years. The Forensic, boys’ debating society, and the Virgines, girls’ debating society, were active organizations for many years. The Kiu Kiun Kia was a girls’ debating society organized in 1906. The name of the society is in Esper- anto. The Corumathean and Philomathean debating societies also ex- isted for a time. The Athletic Association was organized in 1900, and as a student organization financed and managed the entire athletic program of the college, under the supervision of a faculty member. The Thalian, a dramatic society, was organized in 1920, becoming in 1926 the present Alpha Psi Omega. The Science Club was organized in 1915 and in 1926 became the present Chi Beta Phi Science Fraternity. The Home Economics Club was organized in 1926. The Etude, a musi- Sey cal club, was reorganized in 1929 to become the present Phi Beta Phi. Alpha Phi Gamma, a journalistic fraternity, was organized in 1923. The Phi Gamma Mu, a national social science fraternity, was organized in 1929. The Zeta Sigma Pi was founded in 1935 at Wilmington College under the guidance of Dr. R. D. MacNitt. Many other chapters of this national social science fraternity have since been organized at other colleges. During the period when Dr. MacNitt was head of the social science department, this organization held its national meetings at Wil- mington College. A Women’s College Auxiliary was organized in 1940 and is now a very active group for promotion of college interests. Social Organizations The college has had secret organizations on its campus for many years. There was a small group of young men who banded themselves together and met secretly at regular intervals during their stay on the campus. They continued their meetings annually for many years after they were out of college. The first recognized Greek letter social organization was Delta Omega Theta, which was formed from a group of town girls in 1907. They were followed by the Gamma Phi Gamma, who date their existence back to 1907, when a group of four young men had a club which met secretly at stated intervals. This club became an organized fraternity in 1913. A ban was placed on social organizations in 1914 under the administration of President Hodgin, but was lifted after President Jay came. The Sigma Zeta organization was formed in 1916, followed by Alpha Phi Kappa in 1921. The college enrollment increased during the early twenties such that fraternities and sororities flourished. In 1923, the Lambda Beta Up- silon fraternity was organized, followed by the Tau Theta Chi sorority and Alpha Tau Epsilon fraternity in 1924. In 1928, the Phi Sigma Chi was reorganized from Lambda Beta Upsilon. In 1930, the Deborades Social Club was organized. During the depression years, when the enroll- ment declined, several of these organizations had a struggle for existence with the result that a few are now dormant. A veterans’ social organi- zation was formed in 1946, followed in 1947 by the Veteranettes, an or- ganization of the veterans’ wives. A new fraternity, Tau Kappa Beta, was formed in 1948. The College Museum There has been a collection of materials for natural history since the earliest days of the college. It was through the efforts of Prof. Jonathan Wright that the materials were collected and provision was made for their care. In 1886, the cabinet was moved to the large room directly above the old chapel room, and cases and shelves were made for its dis- play. Prof. H. C. Fellow and Dr. G. M. Austin added 1500 specimens at that time. In 1894, George F. Hill, of Columbus, Ohio, gave his collec- tion. In 1902, the large collections of Dr. L. B. Welch and Dr. Charles Welch, of Wilmington, Ohio, were given by Olive Welch to the college. In 1903, J. Lindley Spicer gave his collection of Palestine materials. Dr Kelley Hale, of Wilmington, Ohio, in recent years has given considerable material in the way of fossils and cabinets to contain them. sin 1949, James Terrell, of New Vienna, Ohio, gave to the museum the private col- pau a lection of his grandfather, Dr. G. M. Austin, which consists of selected fossil specimens. Many smaller additions have been made to the museum from time to time. Orange Frazer gave a mummy head obtained from an Egyptian tomb. The teeth of a giant mastadon were dug up near the college by D. C. Wood and added to the collection. A collection of Mediterranean coral was given by Rebecca Farquhar McQuiston. Dr. F. O. Hazard and his students have collected many biological specimens consisting of reptiles, fish, and other fauna. The museum was moved to the Bailey Hall in the early twenties and the materials were partially classified at that time by Dr. G. M. Austin, who found many type specimens. The materials are being reclassified and organized by Prof. Rendell Rhoades of that department. Student Service The students of Wilmington College have in all the history of the school been of such a character that they were willing and ready to help with activities and projects that were for the upbuilding of the school. This can be attributed to the fact that many of the students were of limited means, willing to help the school which was serving them. They were accustomed to working at home and had the habit of work ingrained in their systems. This can be said of present day students, most of whom have shown their willingness to give of their time for a worthy cause. The wearing of work clothes under working conditions has never been a discredit to Wilmington College students. Dozens of boys and girls have earned their way through college, all or in part, by doing menial tasks, such as cleaning of buildings, firing of furnaces, and waiting tables. Scores of other students have served as secretaries and as student as- sistants in the library and laboratories. This type of service is valuable not only for the financial support gained but for the service training received. Student Projects There are no doubt many earl y student projects of which the writer has no knowledge. The only projects, of which record is made, are those of the building of a telescope and the observatory; the building of the early gymnasium; the building of the grand stand and grading and drainage of the athletic field; the installation of a tile roof on the Main College Hall by the class of 1909; and the erecting of a boys’ dormitory, which is now in progress. Many class gifts have been made from time to time—the college gateway, library shelving, motion picture machine, walks, book collections, and money grants. Student Government The Student Senate was organized in 1925 largely under the guidance of the dean of women, Dorothy Gebauer, who is now dean of women at the University of Texas. The purpose of the organization is to con- trol all student activities, except those of social organizations and of athletics. This organization is serving a useful purpose. Herschel Chance, now principal of the Blanchester Schools, was the first president of that organization. Peel In every College there exists a need for a place where students can meet and socialize. In the early days, the old college study room and the spacious halls served the students as meeting places between classes. Before the days of fraternity houses, South Hall boys’ dormitory was a common rendezvous, often to the annoyance of resident students. The large Twin Ash porch was used as a gathering place for many years. After the erection of Denver Hall, the former dining room of Twin Ash dormitory was established as a recreation room and student center. During Dr. Collins’ administration, a student union was provided in the house now occupied by Coach Raizk at the corner of Whittier Place and Douglas Street, made possible by a $700 alumni fund. This center was provided with equipment to make a student lounge. The result was not what was expected, for it takes more than tables and chairs to have a successful student union. The present student union, the Cove, was erected during the win- ter of 1947-48 and furnishes the students a place for meeting and relaxa- tion. It serves a useful purpose in that it has removed much confusion from the library and college halls. A joint student-faculty committee operates the Cove, which is controlled and owned by the Student Senate. Student Publications The Collegian was the college paper which was published for a period, 1883-89, followed by the Wilmingtonian, 1900-19. The Wilming- tonian was a monthly magazine, before the name was taken by the col- lege yearbook in 1920. The Alpha was the first yearbook (1907) of which Ruby Fisher Evans and Louise Urton Ellett were editors. In the vol- ume are found many interesting pictures, including photographs of early presidents, faculty, campus scenes, and buildings. A copy of this book is held at the library under close supervision of the librarian from which students may gain an idea of what happened in earlier days. The class of 1915 had a senior issue of the Wilmingtonian which was a small yearbook. The Wilmingtonian is a valuable record of college people and college events, which has been published continuously since 1920; some of the publications are very complete, while others are not so complete. Many good photographs with clear descriptions, free from fancy and _ pre- judice, are necessities for a good history. Snapshots tell a better story than formal photographs, although the latter are necessary. The first newspaper of which the author has knowledge was the “Standard Solution” put out by an ambitious chemistry class about 1916 for a short period. In 1919-20, the Boosters Club was formed for the purpose of giving publicity to the college. They formed groups to visit the high schools to create interest in the college. A publication known as “Pep” was put out regularly by the club for many years. Russell Clevenger, son of the late Judge Frank M. Cleven- ger, and now on the staff of the Wall Street Journal, was the first editor of that paper. Howard (Kroger) Babb was editor-in-chief in 1926-27. The name of the paper was changed to “The Rock” in 1929, to “The Mir- ror” in 1933, and to the “Green and White” in 1936. The monthly newspaper became the “Quaker Quips” in 1940, a name it has retained to the present writing. Prof. I. G. Hawk was editor in a) tied 1945. The Quips began weekly publication in 1947 under the editorship of Paul W. Young. Summer students began their own monthly newspaper in 1942, naming it the “Oracle.” In 1948, it disappeared, and was replaced by summer editions of the Quips. The “Link” is a paper put out quarterly by the publicity department for the benefit of the alumni and former students. The “Co-ordinator” a mimeographed sheet put out weekly by the publicity department, gives notice of current happenings apout the College. The Library The college library in the early days was rather small. The records of 1877-78 show 1000 volumes, largely of encyclopedia, dictionaries, his- tories, and biographies. The students had access to the library once each week for receiving and returning books. In 1886-87, the library had grown to 1500 volumes and was removed to the large south room on the second floor of College Hall, where shelving was provided and a system of cataloging was begun. With the development of the new location, the library was kept open for several hours of each day and a librarian was provided with either a student or some member of the faculty in charge. The books of the library were largely gifts from interested friends, and these gifts contained many Quaker books. Joseph Pease, a wealthy Friend, gave many of these books as identified by his beautifully en- graved book plate found therein. There were book clubs which were entertained annually, and a formal ceremony was held for the reception of books. Many of these books were of standard reference and are still of current value. The circulating book club lasted until 1916. The library was added to from time to time until by 1920 there were over 5000 volumes. There came a time when the shelves in the main library room would not hold these books, such that a stack room was made by cutting an entrance to the old chemistry laboratory to be used for a stack and work room. Teacher Ellen Wright for many years was librarian, after she semi- retired from her teaching of Latin to be succeeded by Elsie McCoy in that department. In 1921, Marguerite Mitchell came to the college from the staff of the Ohio State University. She is a trained librarian, receiv- ing her library degree from the University of Illinois. She carried the duties of registrar in addition to her duties as librarian. To her can be credited the classification and the development of our present library. The Library of Congress system of classification was adopted in 1922. The library was moved from College Hall to the newly finished building in 1942. There have been many books added to the library of recent years until there are now 25,000 volumes. The use of the library is increasing as the students are being educated to the need for library work. Mrs. Miriam DeLargey was added to the staff in 1947 to help care for the growing needs of the library. The College Management No history of Wilmington College would be complete without men- tion of the loyal men and women who have guided the destiny of the FAS college through the years. In the beginning of the school under the management of Friends, there were two governing bodies—the Board of Managers and the Board of Trustees. These two boards usually met on the same day and often had joint sessions. There was a joint board with a separate president and secretary whose duties were to look after the college endowment. Joseph C. Carroll and Alice McMillan were the last officials of this joint board. In 1914, these two governing bodies were merged and the management of the college changed from the three quarterly meetings to the Wilmington Yearly Meeting. The nine mem- bers of the new Board of Trustees were: David Dunham, president, Lauren- na H. Farquhar, secretary, EK. J. Hiatt, treasurer, John B. Peelle, Mary Sate Clayton Terrell, Rufus Kersey, William Hunt, and Isaac T. ohnson. Before 1924, the membership of the Board of Trustees was confined to the Society of Friends, but at that date two members from other relgi- ious denominations were added. The new members added to the board since the merger in 1914 are David B. Hunt, Susanna Terrell, Francis H. Farquhar, Howard McKay, Esther McMillan, Frank M. Clevenger, Newton P. Sams, John Shackleford, Thurman Miller, Dr. Siegel Routh, Faith Terrell, Horace R. Townsend, Lida K. Johnson, Alton Haworth, Edward Stratton, Thomas R. Kelly, D. K. Hempstead, Thomas S. Towns- ley, James Linton, Thomas Kiphart, Emery Bales, Leslie Shaffer, Clin- ton Nichols, Merle Davis, Virginia McKay, and Harry Brandon. Arthur Hunt, while not a member of the college board, was their business man- ager for twenty years and had an important part in the management of the business of the college. Since the re-organization of the Board of Trustees, there have been comparatively few changes in membership considering the size of the body. On the present board are three members who have given faith- ful service for over twenty-five years—Susanna Terrell, Esther McMil- lan, and Howard McKay. Edwin J. Hiatt, treasurer of the board for twenty-eight years, retired in 1942. He was very active in three suc- cessful campaigns for funds in 1917, 1923, and 1929. Isaac T. Johnson served on the board from 1914 to 1937 to be succeeded by his wife, Lida, who served on the board until the time of her death in 1946. The sum of $126,500 was given to the college endowment by Mr. and Mrs. Johnson. The officers of the present board are: Thomas S. Townsley, president, Faith Terrell, secretary, and Howard McKay, treasurer. Trailer Row tal As Room and Board It has been the policy of the college authorities to have as many students as possible near the campus to give homogeneity and solidarity to the student body. With this in mind, there has been an effort to pro- vide rooming and dining facilities for the maximum number. The policy of requiring students who reside in the dormitories to eat in the dining hall has always been the rule. This is necessary in order that the dining hall may be made self-sustaining. For students to have the privilege of living close to the campus, they must support those provisions that make this possible. The writer was a resident of South Hall when there were cooking and dining facilities there. With the coming of Samuel Hodgin, the South Hall dining room was abolished and a common dining room for all es- tablished at Twin Ash. The boys and girls dressed for dinner and sat at specified places with a faculty member, seated at the head of the table, who served. ‘The seating was changed each week so that acquaintances could be had with all students. Scripture lessons were read each morning, fol- lowed by a period of meditation. At regular occasions, lectures w ere given on table manners, on proper decorum for college students in the dining room, and about the college. With the building of Denver dining room, conditions were improved. Students had regular seating in that dining room and were served in proper style. The cafeteria style of service was instituted in the thirties and has prevailed to the present. The cafeteria plan is more efficient from the standpoint of serving many students but it takes away the cultural features of the table service plan. College Traditions Many customs have come and gone at the college, but few have formed traditions. The one tradition that characterizes Wilmington Col- lege is the “friendly spirit” which was given by the founders and per- petuated through the years by faculty and students. “Dusty” Miller has aptly stated it as, “Wilmington is a place where everybody can be somebody.” With the increase in the size of the student body, this tradi- tion is harder to keep, but it is one that should be preserved. Another tradition is college chapel, which has been a vital part of the college program since its beginning. The period of “silence” at the beginning of chapel service is the method of worship used by early Friends. The use of the hymn, “God of Our Fathers,” as an opening song, is a custom that was begun in the late thirties. A traditional event of long standing is “May Day” at which a May queen is crowned. Many features have been added to this festival in its development from the Shakesperean pageant in 1916 to the present Illumination Night. In recent years, queens have been chosen for other occasions, some of which customs are on their way to becoming traditions. There is promise of replacement of the traditional ivy on the walls of College Hall about which so many songs have been sung. It was removed for repair of the walls but new and a better variety of ivy will be planted soon. “The Green and White,” the college song written by Bertha Peelle Arthur soon after 1904, is the traditional college song. A new alma mater PEL {Ss was adopted in recent years, during the term of Prof. F the Music Department. 4 obs Hreds Mayer, sof The Rock Note to Reader: The writer of this history has found it difficult to give the exact date of some important events, as many of these happenings were recorded in places not available for use. The college catalogs, histories written by earlier authors, col- lege annuals, verbal statements of people, and the memory of the writer have served as the sources of material for this article. It is to be regretted that the lack of space has not permitted the mention of the names of many people who have played a part in the history of the college. The writer has adhered to facts as closely as possible with no attempt to glorify or embellish any happenings. He has been connected with the college since 1908, at which time he entered as a student.

(Reprinted from the news columns of the Quaker Quips, April 13, 1948.) Not too many weeks ago, a chosen few from among the student body and faculty were given notice to be at the home of Dr. Samuel D. Marble at 12008 Pied Dean of Men Fred Raizk received an invitation, as did Elton Hall, president of the YMCA. Ruth Shapiro, chair- man of the Student Union Committee, was seated in the parlor along with Prof. George W. Bowman, of the WC English department, and Joe Wientjes, Student Senate president. The cam- pus press was represented by Paul Young and Charles Mowrey, respec- tively editor and business manager of the QUAKER QUIPS. Prof. Menzo Stark, head of the industrial arts de- partment, found himself a seat beside Prof. Wilbur Wilson, of the chemistry department. Bea Walker, head of the YWCA, and Roy Joe Stuckey, Gospel Team director, were also present. Dr. Marble opened with an en- thusiastic welcome. “Few of you know just why you are here this evening, I think.” He then went ahead to give the reason and survey of the needs in campus buildings. He pointed to three —a men’s dormitory, a permanent Stu- dent Union, and an Arts and Music building. Reviewing the immediate housing needs of the College, he promptly, but politely pigeonholed the Student Union and the Arts and Music building, giving full preference to a building which could be constructed through student labor, donated by the students on campus. The group quickly agreed that this was one of the best ways to create school spirit, by having each student feel himself a part of the build- ing and the College. The men’s dorm- itory was well on its way. Leaning back in his chair, the young president reached to the carpeted floor aN vy A beside him and picked up a set of blueprints. He went ahead talking and then laid the blueprints on the floor before the group. Each took his turn at looking over the specifications of the dormitory, and each voiced his opinion on the possible success of such a venture. “I know it’s not going to be easy,” Dr. Marble said. “It will entail much hard work and an even greater amount of interest on the part of the students. This can well be the start that Wil- mington College has long awaited. Our building program can begin here and grow until one day our campus ranks not in the bottom 10% of the North Central schools, but in the upper 10%.” The group members exchanged looks and words, finally agreeing that it was “worth the risk.” Everything was to be donated that could possibly be located. The War Assets Administration had been more than co-operative in other instances and the young administrator felt that they would stick by him in this undertak- ing. Certainly, he felt, there would be others in the Wilmington community who would see the merit of such a pro- gram and who would offer materials or services for such a valid project. But, they were all certain that they would not ask for money. They even agreed upon a slogan: “WE DON’T WANT A CENT!” Three hours of debate passed. Each side of the question was raised. Would there be sufficient interest in such a spontaneous plan? Would there be enough skilled labor to finish the build- ing once it was started? Each in his turn satisfied himself that there would be. And so on. This meeting adjourned, but others followed. More representatives showed up for the second evening’s conference.

Il. SETTING THE IDEA IN MOTION. (Reprinted from the news columns of the Quaker Quips, April 13, 1948.) Groundbreaking will begin at 11 A. M. today on the new men’s dormitory which will be constructed directly across the street from the Industrial Arts Building on Douglas Street. It was agreed that thirty students, carefully chosen by the Planning Com- mittee, would be informed of the plan and their reaction, whether favorable or unfavorable, be checked. The facul- ty were notified only last night. Today, the project will be publicly born. The foreplanning was tedious and complicated. But, today’s ground- breaking will give the College a start toward getting the buildings it so very badly needs. consisted of Marlay W. Lethly, the Springfield architect who had been do- ing all the work for the College; Clif- ton J. Warren, who was to supervise the overall construction; Prof. Menzo Stark, who was to procure the tools and equipment; Dr. W. R. Pyle, pre- construction advisor; and Dr. Marble. Plans were made for the actual cere- mony. Speakers were contacted and the program outlined. Everything was set to go. Freshman class, took seats in the plan- ning group. I. G. Hawk, director of public relations, was called in. Contacts had been made on tools, materials, and publicity channels. A Building Council had been set up which Declared one of the most needed buildings on the campus, the housing unit will go up through the donation of man hours by students and faculty members. Materials have been secured and construction will start on a single unit of the five-unit building. As soon as one unit is completed, Dr. = fA Samuel D. Marble states, the second unit will be started and so forth until the entire dormitory is finished. The new domitory, which will house 66 men, according to Architect Marlay W. Lethly’s notes, is made up of five 40x40 foot units. Four units, each with seven double rooms and one single room, are used for housing of male students, and the fifth unit is to pro- vide quarters for the house-master. The building is right-angular in shape. Heating of the units has not yet been determined, but planners are agreed that a common heating unit for the five-unit dormitory would be most practical. The installation of lines from the major heating plant in the gymnasium would entail greater work, they feel. In charge of the construction is Clif- ton J. Warren, a Wilmington man with experience both in working with young men and women and in com- mercial construction. Warren is a for- mer high school teacher and now op- erates a farm machinery sales and service shop in the city. Members of the Building Council in addition to Warren are Marlay W. Lethly, college architect from Spring- field, Dr. W. R. Pyle, Dr. Samuel D. Marble and Prof. Menzo Stark. Convocation will be held at 9 A. M., and will last until about 11 A. M., with a special program for the intro- duction of the building program. The Rev. Gaston B. Foote, of Dayton, will be principal speaker. Dr. Marble will place the actual plans before the stu- dent body. The college swing band was also entered on the morning pro- gram. The entire day will be set aside as an all-campus holiday, and has been unofficially termed “Dorm Day.” Classes will be held the first period of the morning, but the remainder of the day will be given over to the ground-breaking and the dedication of the new Student Union building in the evening.

Excavation will begin;:for the founda- tion with a slip shovel and tractor instead-of a bulldozer, as was previous- ly planned. The bulldozer will be used later in the work, Professor Stark said. A part of the old storage barn may have to be razed before the con- struction can get fully underway, and a tree will have to be uprooted to al- low for the laying of. the concrete foundation. | Dr. W. R. Pyle, head of the mathe- matics and physics department, was in charge of the staking out and survey- ing of the area. Since that section of the campus is usually low, he feels, there will need to be a dirt filling to allow for proper drainage. The building will be constructed of cement blocks, and will be of the two-story type. Brick veneer, which would give the building a colonial de- sign architecturally may be added later on, Dr. Marble said. But, he added, the principle of student-faculty labor prevents any great amount of beauty from being realized on such a project. Practicality and service are the greatest aims in constructing the new dormitory. “We don’t want a cent” is the slogan adopted by the Planning Committee. Members of the Planning Commit- tee are Dr. Marble, Prof. Stark, Prof. George W. Bowman, Coach Fred Raizk, Prof. Wilbur Wilson, Ruth Shapiro, © Elton Hall, Paul Young, Charles D.

(Written especially for the 1949 Wilming- tonian by Virginia Perry, a member of the class of 1950.) The day was gray and the rain was drizzling drearily on April 13, 1948. It was seemingly a very ordinary and uneventful day, but in the college gym- nasium on the Wilmington College cam- pus history was being made. Inside the big gymnasium, 600 stu- dents were gathered for an assembly. At last the mystery of WC’s “D-Day” was going to be solved. The new, young president of the Col- lege, Dr. Samuel D. Marble, had an idea—an idea that was big and rather breathtaking. “We need many things at WC, but most of all we need a dormitory for the men. And we can have the dorm- Ory Little by little the story was un- folded. Dr. Marble had realized the great need for a men’s dormitory, what with the enrollment at a new high. But he also knew that such a _ building would cost more than the school could afford. But there was one possibility—what about the 600 students who were learn- ing about democracy as well as Eng- lish, math, and psychology? Would they be willing to undertake such a job? There was only one way to find out. RANDOM SHOTS Governor Herbert can be seen both singly and at the cornerstone laying; Sen- ator Bricker is laying a block; students carry and lay blocks on the wall; Represen- tative Nicely is in the upper left picture. piel tI. Dr. Marble asked the students two questions: “Do we need this building?” and “Can we do it?” The answer to both questions was a wild roar of approval. Thus an idea was put to work. Its success lay over a not-so- distant horizon. The idea was no longer something Dr. Marble hoped for—it was some- thing the students worked for. The students, in good and old clothes, defied the mud and rain that spring day. They dug trenches for the five-unit footer, unloaded concrete Pat Dennis blocks, and put up an airplane Army tent for “building headquarters.” Work had begun. The dormitory had actually been started. After the main section of an old barn had been razed, the blocks be- gan to rise, one row on another until it could be seen above the level of the ground. Here was proof; it could be done, and the students were doing Lt. Sore muscles, mud-caked shoes, and “brand new gloves” were the first re- wards of the workers. The first two came quite naturally, the latter as a direct gift from an “interested manu- facturer in Indiana.” But as time Mayor Stephens progressed, the workers could slap mortar on a block with the ease of a professional brick mason. Probably the most difficult job con- cerning the dormitory was given to Dr. Marble SeRoee Clifton J. Warren. “Cliff works as su- pervisor of the dormitory. Usually he Mary Jane Abell puts in about sixteen hours daily in or- der to instruct the volunteer workers. Some of the students wanted to get their hours in by starting at 7 A. M. Others did their part on the night shift under the glow of carbide lamps. This Jerry and Tony task of training and supervising the willing, but untrained and unskilled students, required a lot of patience and understanding. The students are proud of the fact that they are building a dormitory: “It cost me forty bucks,” declared one mud-splattered student, after digging all day on the foundation. “I had planned to transfer to another college for specialized work, and had paid my admission fee of $40; now I would- n’t leave Wilmington College for any- thing. There’s real spirit here.” And there was real spirit from the local people, as well as from people all over the country. Twenty mem- bers of the Junior Chamber of Com- merce came out to the campus from Cornerstone Laying the city to give their manual help. They willingly moved 1000 concrete blocks and helped lay several of the ones they had moved. Then the Ro- tary Club and the Lions lent a hand. Students came down from Antioch and from Oberlin to learn the tricks of the trade first-hand. Not every building has the assistance of the city mayor, the college president, the governor, and a United States sen- ator. Mayor Robert C. Stephens left the city hall, picked up a trowel, and pitched in right alongside the students. Dr. Marble never slowed his pace. His taney ae Mary Woods, U. S. Senator (from Ohio) John W. Bricker, and President Marble lay a block. Mary was queen at the big Circleville Pumpkin Show (1948). —_)— Sparkplug 2 Wilmington Colles: Specht, is Pe, Popular Dr. and Mee.

Bricker looked the dormitory over, found a place where he could do a block-laying job, did his work, and then returned to his office in Wash- ington. Governor Thomas L. Herbert was there for the November 13 corner- stone laying. He applied the mortar, and helped to get the stone into posi- tion. Contributions from other individuals and corporations came in. Benjamin F. Fairless, president of the United States Steel Corporation, lauded the students of WC for their determination and hard work, and praised the ad- ministration for a courageous plan. The same corporation gave $2,500 to cover the cost of all the cement in the dormitory. as 7 a Another firm presented all the roof- ing tile needed for the building, and an electrical contractor offered to sup- ervise the students in wiring the build- ing. One of the greater contributions came from a manufacturer who pre- sented the concrete “Flexi-Cor” beams for the ceilings of the units. Three clubs were organized for the student laborers. Those who passed the 50-hour mark received cards en- titling them to all privileges accorded “50 Club” members. The harder work- ers were more fully recognized with “100 Club” membership, and even cards for the “200 Club.” The building probably got its big- gest boost when over 300 _ students showed up for work, and incidentally, to pose for the Pathe News crew. Ac- tion shots were taken for a possible future newsreel. Tony Caputo, chief of the Chicago Bureau of Pathe, climbed right atop his automobile to record the proceedings. “WILMINGTON COLLEGE BUILDS A DREAM HOUSE.” That was the title of an article appearing in many of the daily newspapers; the accom- panying picture showed Dr. Marble and Mary Jane Abell, 1948 May Queen, sharing in the block-laying duties. The professional grip on the trowel is enviable. The bronze plaque, which was un- veiled at the dedication of the dorm- itory, contains the names of many of the students who have spent long hours on the building. Top honors go to Vernon Wills. Ar- riving on campus months after the project was begun, he took an early lead and held to it. Cold weather was the only thing that could stop him. Oscar Escalona, one of Wilmington’s many foreign students—he being from Cuba, was close behind Wills. Joe Baugh, the Quakers’ outstanding foot- ball player for 1948-49, was well over the 100-hour mark, as was Hank Glea- dall. To prove that Wilmington ad- heres to its policy of education for living, Vernon Kuehn, a pre-ministe- rial student, jumped into the 100-Club- bers, and continually advanced until he is.one of the top laborers. And, Paul Hannaford, another minister-to- be, was right behind his professional brother, Kuehn. And the girls were doing their share, too. Libby Little got so used to carry- ing a trowel around with her that she felt almost lost when she laid it down. She is the perfect example of a girl doing a man’s work. Phyllis Duffey, now in the Mason teaching ranks, got her 100 hours in before walking across the platform to receive her diploma, with honors. And, Helen Williamson, dividing her time between a Navy Wave’s work in Cincinnati and Wil- mington College, worked hard to stay in the same bracket with the hardest- working men. Miss Evalyn Hibner, not altogether absorbed with her duties as associate professor of business education, was the first faculty member to reach the 100-bracket. Stepping out of the Eng- lish Department hour after hour, Prof. George Bowman had his five score of hours before cold weather forced the students and faculty indoors. Not far behind was Dr. Marble, backing up his every word with a concrete block. Hundreds of newspapers and maga- zines told the Wilmington College story to the entire nation. Some even carried it abroad. The Manchester Guardian in England devoted its lead editorial to the spirit of our students. Radio Luxembourg carried a program on education and work at Wilmington. And this station is the only commer- cial station in continental Europe at the present time. Radio stations in this country carried stories about the dormitory by script, news broadcast, and commentator. The most pleasing thing about all the publicity, praise, and _ interest shown by other people is that the stu- dents have not relaxed and patted themselves on the back. They haven’t quit to let the other person do the work. They’re still in there pitch- ing—and laying cement blocks.

Sept. 22—Twenty-five eager freshmen reported to Coach Harold Shel ly for the frosh squad tryouts. Sept. 24—Yea, team! Yea, team! The students elected cheerleaders for the 1948-49 season: Alice Eyre, Nancy Harper, George Owens, Phyllis Walsh, Don Murphy, and Mike Zeigler. Prof. George Bow- man (because of his enthusiastic support of the Quakers at every encounter) was chosen to instruct the group. Sept. 25—The Beavers were not too eager. Yep, the Green and White gave the Bluffton Beavers an 18 to 12 trimming on the Bluffton field. The WC ends were eager, however, and put on a spectacular show. Millar caught seven of Wil- mington’s eight completed passes, tossed by Patrick, and Ashw orth connected with some _ beautiful blocking which enabled Millar to reach pay dirt. But don’t forget the line. Raizk picked out his “work horses”’—guards Jim Mc- Dermott and Herb “Gopher” Con- over—for special praise. Sept. 28—The addition of Thiel Col- lege, of Greenville, Pa., to the 48 grid schedule was announced. Sept. 29—President Marble set the WC- Thiel game as the Homecoming Game. The change was to con- form with Wilmington’s big week of special educational conferences. Although athletics was not dis- cussed directly, the big Homecom- ing Game was going to be one of the wind-up features of the conference. Oct. 2—We won, by golly, we won! And by what a score. The “Fight- ing Quakers” downed the Taylor Trojans 47 to 0, scoring in all four periods. Although the Trojans Joe Baugh Bob Dickerson Bill Hilgeman rs [Se averaged 190 pounds, and WC only . 171, the Green and White’s strong forward wall never allowed the Upland, Ind., team to pass their 30-yard line. Most of the ball- carrying assignments went to half- back Bill Rudduck who averaged almost eight yards per try in thirteen attempts. Outstanding work was done by tackles Dean Waddell and Dave Leeth. ED honors went to Baugh (2), Rudduck (2), Hilgeman, Van Schoyck, and Millar. Peirano kicked four of the extra points and ‘‘Gopher” Con- over, one. Oct. 2—Four-year-old Sandy Arnett, daughter of student-veteran Or- val Arnett, was added to the WC cheerleading staff. Oct. � —The Quakers downed the Quakers. The Green and White played host to and defeated one of their oldest rivals, Earlham, of Indiana. The score was another shutout for the Wilmington grid- ders. A beautiful 91-yard return (by Baugh) of an Earlham punt started the WC scoring. Center Clarence Breuleux snagged an Earlham pass and raced 40 yards to give Wilmington six points, and him the first TD of his ath- letic career. Running seemed to be the feature of the day for Bill Crawford and Rudduck also provided runs of over 45 yards. Oct. 11—The “Fighting Quakers” were fifth in the state in scoring and seventh in the number of wins. In comparison with the other thirty- five colleges in Ohio, the locals were doing well. Oct. 13—Joe Baugh ranked third in the state in number of points scored— 24, Oct. 15—We lost! The Redbirds of Jake Van Schoyck - Herb Conover Bill Rudduck == 5G=5 Rio Grande flew home with a 20 to 6 victory. For WC, ’twas the first loss. Oct. 18—Wilmington ranked eight in the state despite the loss. Oct. 21—The Wilmington Freshmen suffered their first loss by drop- ping one to the Wittenberg lower- classmen, 20 to 8. Cliff Wettig scored the lone TD for the Jun- ior Quakers. Oct. 22—Conference average: 1000. The Raizkmen defeated a favored Marietta team 16 to 12. It was the first and only conference game played by WC. A “Brady to Mil- lar” passing combination paced the Green and White. “Steel Arm” Brady, the Marietta paper called him. ‘Conversion Carl” Peirano made both kick attempts for the extra points. Oct. 23—Virgil Patrick ranked first in the Ohio Conference in total yards gained by forward passing. Ron Millar—the other end of a grand passing duo—ranked first in the number of passes received. The WC Athletic Department records showed Millar the top pass re- ceiver in the nation with 25 caught for a total of 480 yards in six games. Oct. 25—Wilmington remained in eighth place in the state with a record of four wins, one loss, and one tie. Oct. 26—Official records, which did not include the Marietta-WC game, showed Millar second in the na- tion with 20 catches for 373 yards in five games. For these five games, Virgil Patrick ranked 11th in the nation in percentage of at- tempted passes completed. His percentage: .531. Joe Baugh stood Paul Schwamberger Jack Kamman Virgil Patrick —197— « fourth in the Ohio Conference in total points scored—30. Oct. 30—Lady Luck was against us. A recovered WC fumble gave the Cedarville Yellow Jackets a 12 to 6 victory and left a Dads’ Night crowd somewhat unhappy. The lone Quaker touchdown was scored by Crawford. Other runs were gained by “plowing Red” Hilge- man. Nov. 1—Wilmington College’s new ath- letic field was being readied for groundbreaking. It will be a permanent memorial to the late Horace R. Townsend, first Ohio High School Athletic Commission- er, and a WC graduate. Former- ly there was to be a memorial fieldhouse, but rising costs forced the sponsors to change the project to the stadium which will cost far less. Position of the field is some- where on the back campus, be- yond the practice field. Nov. 6—Whether they used the Aus- tralian crawl or the breast stroke, we don’t know, but the “Fighting Quakers” “swam” to their fifth victory, an 18 to 6 drubbing of Franklin College. Paul Schwam- berger scored W. C.’s first mark- er by going 56 yards down soggy Goodell Field after he intercepted a Grizzly pass. Nov. 13—What, no score! Yes, the Thiel Tomcats handed the Green and White their first “goose egg” and disappointed a huge Home- coming Game crowd. The Tom- cats posted a 20 to 0 loss on the Quakers. Outstanding on the line was Bob Dickerson. Outstanding the whole season was the line, which, although remaining in the shadows while the backfield re- ceived the headlines, provided the open holes through which those Carl Peirano Jim McDermott Bill Crawford ey a oe fleet-footed backs streaked. The gridders saw their choice for Homecoming Queen, Nancy Har- per, crowned... and kissed. Nov. 14—The Quakers, their coaches, and managers journeyed to Cleve- land to see the Browns beat the San Francisco 49ers. The trip was a post-season treat from the Hon. M. R. Denver, uncle of Dave Wil- liams, Quaker guard. Nov. 15—Thus concluded another year of football at Wilmington College. The Quakers had shown much improvement over the past year, coming up with a 5-win, 3-loss, 1-tie record. This is the fourth best record in the history of the College. Other statistics: WC ranked 11th in the state in opponents’ points; 14th in wins, losses, and ties; and fifth in a field of seventeen in the mythical Ohio Conference race. Figures gave Wilmington a total of 138 points scored, against 89 for their opponents. Millar took an end position on the All-Ohio Conference sec- ond team for 1948. Baugh received honorable men- tion on the All-Ohio Conference team. Millar and Brady got places on the All-Opponents Team of Marietta. Jan. 12—The National College Athletic Bureau in reviewing the 1948 pig- skin season announced that Ron Millar placed third in the nation among small colleges in pass re- ceiving. Millar caught 32 passes for 534 yards, an average of 16.7. Feb. 3—The first annual football ban- quet was the occasion for many important announcements. Joe Baugh, 1948 co-captain and high scorer for the Quakers, was Norm Ashworth Dean Waddell Ron Millar —199— chosen the outstanding grid play- er, and is the first Wilmington ath- lete to have his name engraved on the big, new Carr Brothers’ football trophy. Herb Conover and Bill Rudduck were elected co-captains for the 1949 grid season. The five seniors on the team— Baugh, Patrick, Schwamberger, Breuleux, and Benhase—were hon- ored and the _ certificate-letter- sweater combinations were awarded to twenty-three players. They were Hilgeman, Baugh, Con- over, Rudduck, McDermott, Breu- leux, Williams, Peirano, MiZillar, Kamman, Chapman, Dickerson, Crawford, Brady, Ashworth, Wad- dell, Hoffeld, Schwamberger, Pat- rick, Leeth, Benhase, Van Schoyck, and Tomlinson, the manager. ega(Jorw?

Taking the ini- tiative from the very beginning, the Fighting Quakers opened the basketball season in grand style by giving the Bliss Business Col- lege squad from Columbus a sound 61 to 38 trouncing. The locals were paced by Dave Daniel, who hit for 22 points. Dec. 7—Wood too good. Paced by “Ozark” Wood, Cardinal center, Otterbein managed to push out the Green and White 50 to 46 and Walt Hobble give the Green-clads their first loss of the still-young season. Dec. 10—The Manchester special roared past Wilmington to the tune of 74 to 58. It was only gathering steam which would deliver it to the championship in the Taylor University Invitational Tourna- ment at Upland, Ind. The Ohio Northern squad got a runners-up trophy. Dec. 14—Wilmington dumped again. Ashland dropped the Quakers 63 to 52 for the locals’ third loss. Dec. 16—Capital made it an up-state sweep by soundly whipping WC TO sLOBG t. Jan. 1—In total scoring, Daniel ranked fourth, Hobble seventh, in the Ohio Conference. In averages, Daniels was eighth with 16.8, and Hobble stood eleventh with 15.4. Jan. 4—Thirty freshmen turned out to vie for berths on the wide-open Frosh team, being coached by Fred Raizk. Jan. 6—Prayers not answered; Cen- tre’s, that is. The Shellymen, paced by Walt Hobble, started the new year right by whipping Cen- tre’s Praying Colonels 59 to 46. Walt put 25 through the hoop. Jan. 10—The WC team continued to drop those games away by find- ing themselves on the short end of a close 54 to 52 decision in a game with the Bliss Businessmen. Jan. 11—The Green and White clipped the Eagles’ wings. The Ashland- ers lost a 79 to 70 decision at the hands of the Quakers, with Bick and Senne named for playing hon- ors. Jan. 12—Dave Daniel ranked 19th in the nation. among. individual bas- ketball scorers in the small college division. —208— Jan. 15—Coach Shelly came home from Ada, Ohio, with a big smile on his face. ’Twas the first time he had ever taken his team “home” to face his alma mater (class of 31). And, the Wilmington win over Ohio Northern’s Polar Bears made the trip a happy one. When the regular game ended, the score was 55 to 55, but the Shellymen proved they had what it takes. They “hit” during the overtime and gave the coach a 64 to 57 vic- tory. The game was a rip-snorter, one of those rare “pupil vs. teach- ’ games we hear so much about. Jan. 18—’Force proved too forceful for the Green and White, and the Staters of Wilberforce University handed the team a loss, the first for the locals on the Whittier Street court. The score: 58-51. Jan. 21—Daniel stepped up from 17th to 6th place in the Ohio Confer- ence scoring column, with 153 points. Hobble was almost next door in 9th place with 144. In averages, Dave was 6th, Walt 7th. Jan. 21—The Otterbein Cardinals did it again. Wilmington was dropped 99 to 46. In their first game, the WC freshmen were downed by the frosh of Wittenberg by a ten- point margin—57 to 47. Jan. 24—Bluffton bluffed its way past the Fighting Quakers and sneaked off with a 76 to 61 victory. Senne was high-point man for the losers with 16. Jan. 27—Wilmington was edged 50 to 46 by one of its old rivals, Cedar- ville. The Cedarville freshmen made it a double win for the Yel- low Jacket cagers by forcing the WC frosh to a 59 to 50 loss. Gale Demaree, second string Quaker basketeer, signed a pro- fessional baseball contract with the Trenton, N. J., club of the Class B Interstate League. Dave Daniel Leroy Senne Feb. 1—Taking the lead in the very beginning, the Green and White cage force was never headed as it defeated the Redmen of Deni- son University, 64 to 54. It was conference win number two for the Quakers. Feb. 2—The frosh took another drub- bing at the hands of a fast Univer- sity of Dayton five, 62 to 43.

Feb. 5—Wayne Township fell to an improved freshman five 26 to 20. The game, played according to the 1932 rules, was a feature of the Junior Chamber of Commerce- sponsored March of Dimes bene- fit program. The 1932 rules ac- count for the low score. Feb. 7—The Quakers had them wor- ried, but Wilberforce State still managed to defeat the Wilmington boys 66 to 59—but not before the Shellymen had _ threatened the Force position. The Staters used clever ball handling to complete a “freeze” job. Senne received a gash on his forehead as a result of a collision with a Wilberforce player. Feb. 10—Turn-about is fair play! Both Quaker teams avenged earlier de- feats as the varsity tripped the Yellow Jackets of Cedarville 58 to 42 and the freshmen gave the junior cagers from Greene County a 64-to-53 drubbing. Practically all WC players entered the scor- ing columns. Jimmy Malavazos joined the regulars by scoring nine’ points. Playing in all of WC’s games, Jimmy proved valuable by breaking up zones and _ stealing the ball. He was the high scor- ing man in the substitute field this season, scoring 33 points. This was also the game in which “Killer” Chapman made that now renowned 1.000 average. Feb. 15—The well-known Radloff trio contributed 53 points to Capital’s cause as the Lutherans defeated the Shelly-piloted crew, 89 to 62. Walt Hobble was “hot” and scored 23 for the losers. Feb. 15—The frosh won two. Morrow High and the Clinton County Air Force Base fell to the junior cagers, 61 to 44, and 67 to 4, re- spectively. Yes, the latter score is correct as it stands. The All- Weather Flyers from the CCAFB hit the bucket for only four points. Feb. 17—The University of Dayton freshman five dropped the Green and White underclassmen 62 to 47. Feb. 19—Ohio Conference statistics placed Daniel fourth in total points scored (269), and Hobble ninth with 247. In the average column, Daniel was eighth wtih 16.4, and Hobble thirteenth with 14.5. Senne made his first appearance in the high average bracket with a total of 159 points. His average (10.6) placed him 37th in the Ohio Con- ference averages. Feb. 19—A fast-passing Centre (Ky.) five dropped the locals 66 to 53. “Hitting” on their Danville floor, the Praying Colonels handed the Quakers their twelfth defeat in nineteen tries.

At halftime, with WC leading 41 to 29, Shelly said: “Let’s all play, boys!” and sent in his capable subs. This last game was a show- case for the talent wrapped up in the Quaker team. Hobble’s fine floor play, Bick’s usual good play- ing, Ashworth’s spectacular long shots, Daniel’s pivot shots (and Jordan’s fine job of subbing for lame Dave), and Senne’s “hitting” made it strictly a team-win.

They really let their hair down. They showed that they are human, too.” March 7—And so, another cage sea- son is’ history. The Fighting Quakers collected a record of eight wins against twelve losses. Ranked with the forty other colleges of Ohio, they placed twenty-seventh. They were fourteenth in the Ohio Conference. In points, they scored 1149 against their opponents’ 1202. Even though the losses outnum- ber the wins, this year must not be counted as poor. The more rugged schedule encountered this year must be considered.

Three members of the WC team ranked in the individual confer- ence ranks. Walt Hobble was ninth in total points scored with 301; Dave Daniel close behind in fifteenth with 283; and Leroy SiS ei chosen by his teammates as the outstanding WC cage player of 1949. This was announced at the first annual basketball banquet given in honor of the 1948-49 bas- ketball team. Walt, a sophomore, paced the Green and White in scor- ing, by gathering 301 points, giv- ing him a total of 607 during the two brilliant seasons of college competition. Varsity letter-and-sweater awards were presented to all four- teen of the 1949 Shellymen. They were Hobble, Dave Daniel, Bill Bick, Norman Ashworth, Leroy Senne, George Roush, Jimmy Mal- avazos, Dave Chapman, Marvin Distel, Paul Schwamberger, Don Jordan, Art Brady, Jack Souther, and Jake Von Schoyck. Jimmy Hull, one of Ohio State’s all-time cage greats, was the prin- cipal speaker at the banquet. Hull, now a dentist in Columbus, was captain of the 1939 State team which won the Big Nine cham- pionship and went to the finals of the National Collegiate Inyita- tional tourney. He led the West- ern Conference in points, set All- Ohio State scoring records, and was named in All-Big Nine and All-American selections. Coach Harold Shelly, reviewing the past season, observed that the Quakers “had their ups and downs.” The Shellymen had a considerably more rugged sched- ule this year, it should be recalled. But as Jimmy Hull remarked— “Ten years from tonight, you won’t remember the win and lose rec- ord. You'll remember the fine friends you made, not the scores.” March 30—Once-defeated Vandervort Dorm rose from the loser’s bracket in the annual intramural cage tourney to win the championship by downing the previously unde- feated 860 AC five. Since the tournament was conducted along double-elimination lines, Vander- vort had to win two. They did this trick in one night, defeating the 860 AC quintet 47-23 and 34- 28, successively. It might be of interest to point out that the sin- gle defeat that the Vandervort group suffered in the tourney was at the hands of 860 AC in the winner’s bracket. Score: 34 to 33. Members of the winning aggre- gation are Duane Goens, Bill Rob- inson, Bill Rupert, Charles Bran- denburg, Chuck Boerstler, Robert Terrell, Frank Henderson, and Abramo Ottolenghi. PLAYER OF THE YEAR Walt “Bill” Hobble receives the Carr Basketball Trophy from Mrs. Herbert Carr, one of the trophy donors. The other brothers are Larue ’08 and Guy 709. Hobble was named player of the year at the Annual Basketball Banquet. He is a graduate of Atlanta High School, and was high point man for the 1948-49 cage Quakers.

So, let’s see what happened in the 1948 baseball, tennis, and track activities. April 21—The Quakers started their baseball season off with a rip- snorter. WC and the University of Cincinnati Bearcats played a 7-7 tie game which ended in a little dispute. For the record, let’s see what happened. The Quakers were trailing 7-6 as their final turn at bat rolled around. lLead-off-man Virgil Patrick drew a base on balls, and Al Meuer then went down swinging. Pitcher Jim Lee lined out a single, and Bob Dick- erson was hit in the back by a wide U. C. pitch, thus filling the bases. Paul Schwamberger then went down swinging. There were two outs with the bases full. Then came the disputed play. Jack Souther’s roller was scooped up by the Cincy shortstop and thrown to second in an attempt force-out. The U. C. second base- man dropped the ball momentar- ‘ ily, however, when Dickerson crashed into him, but he recov- ered in time to tag out Dickerson, whose momentum had carried him beyond the sack. However, Pat- rick crossed home with the tying run. The umpire ruled that Dick- erson had reached second safely and then was trapped off base, thus making Patrick’s run good. The entire Bearcat squad rushed onto the field to challenge the de- cision and when neither official would back down, they simply went home. The head umpire’s fi- nal decision? A 7 to 7 tie. April 24—In the first track meet of the year, Xavier thin-clads topped the Quaker cindermen 90 to 22. Mil- lar got the only first, and Van Schoyck was high point man, gathering a total of six points for the high jump and high hurdle events. BASEBALL TEAM FRONT ROW, left to right: Coach Fred Raizk, Art Brady, Jack Ross, Harry Phillips, Virgil Patrick, Paul Schwamberger, Maynard Stanley, Sheldon Holtz- man.

April 30—The racquet squad received their first defeat by dropping a match to Wittenberg. May 4—Wilmington’s “Fighting Quak- ers” baseball team defeated a ’Force nine 13 to 8, as pitcher Jim Lee went all the way, fanning ten Wilberforce batters. May 5—In a triangular meet, W. C., Dayton, and Cedarville participat- ing, Wilmington took second place. The final count was U. D. 98, W. C. 37, Cedarville 24. May 8—Wittenberg gave the W. C. ten- nis team their second defeat. Cap- tain Bill Ramsey chalked up his team’s only victory in a singles event over a Wittenberg player 6-4 and 6-2. May 11—A well-rounded Capital squad dropped the Green and White thin- clads 103-24. First place points were won by two Shellymen. Ben- hase took the shot-put honors, and Bill Rudduck topped in the pole vaulting contest. May 20—Shelly’s cindermen dropped another to Wittenberg, 91 to 36. Four W. C. men took top honors, however.

THE YEAR IN REVIEW THE STORY OF 1948-49 Were Wilmington an ordinary college, writing its present history would be only the routine matter of listing a few games, recalling a picnic or outing, and telling who had the lead in the Senior Play. Wilmington is not an ordinary college, nor are its students and faculty ordinary people. Together, they are fashioning Wilmington into the semblance of their dream of a college where young men and women can learn to live. “Not By Bounds, But By Many Steps.” That Wiimington is still moving forward was clear at the beginning of this school year. The dated integrated curriculum was shuffled to better acquaint the student with the working theories of our democratic system so he will have a clearer understanding of what he will face upon graduation. A Great Books course was opened under the direction of Prof. Burritt M. Hiatt. One more major field of study, journalism, was begun at the beginning of the term. The Student Senate was encouraged to take a more authoritative part in student affairs. One of its first acts was the re-allocation of the stu- dent activity fee to more completely cover the year’s program. Three more firms donated funds for the dormitory under construction by our college students and faculty. Saturday classes were scheduled so the college curriculum could include a variety of courses. Many additions were made to the faculty; Miss Muriel Specht came here from Oberlin to act as Dean of Women. Nearly 600 registered for fall classes. The 229 new students were caught up in the whirl of freshman week which the YW-YMCA again sponsored, but the sophomores were shaking because they had just learned they would be required to pass a comprehensive English exam- ination before they could move to upper-division work! “We'll have a marching band out there if there are only twelve of us,” Ralph Stopp, new member of Wilmington’s music department and director of the band, said in reference to the football game with Taylor University. They did. Actually there were about 30 students who re- ported for band practice every afternoon and performed at every home game during the season. The freshmen came back from a weekend at Fort Hill which was well worth remembering. The hayride there sharpened appetites, and hungry campers devoured the meals cooked by Miss Evalyn Hibner and Mrs. Beatrice Wilson. Friday night they square-danced into friendships. Vernon Kuehn led them on a verbal hike that was “awright!” with every- one. The first day ended with group singing around the campfire. After orientation, games, and dinner Saturday, everyone climbed to the top of Fort Hill.. Hard going on the way up, but coasting down was quick and fun. After supper, Reverend Paul Jones, of Hillsboro, spoke. The frosh provided their own entertainment then with skits they had pre- pared during the day, and Andy Anderson, of Antioch, led group singing while Prof. Hugh Heiland played the tunes on the piano. (He was re- ported to have been seen roaming barefoot in the wet grass and wearing his beautiful blue pajamas later that night.) Campers returned to cam- pus with spirits high. Mack Sauer, editor of the Leesburg Citizen, delighted the student body at convocation with his never-ending stream of humorous tales. —245— “Be able to laugh a little,” he said. His was the sort of talk students will remember. “Every college student should be ‘vaccinated’ against the meanest and most vulgar of all diseases—racial and religious prejudices. We must learn to live with others.” Prospective class officers petitioned for candidacy. Sororities and fraternities held open house. The Aeolian Choir planned a carnival as the first step in its campaign to raise funds for a bus to transport students to musical events, on annual tours, and to regional conventions. It was in October, too, that the Student Senate decreed “Old Clothes Week.” Jeans and slacks were the uniform of the day to provide the time and opportunity for the student body to get in as much work on the boys’ dormitory as possible before bad weather halted progress. It certainly is a cruel world, moaned the freshmen many times dur- ing their week of initiation. The climax occurred when the freshmen had to take off their shoes and dump them in the middle of the campus, after a freshman meeting with the sophomores. When they tried to recover them, the frosh found that the shoe laces had been tied together. The last shoe has been sorted, but “Next year,” the freshmen said, “someone is going to pay for this!” (Beware, class of 1953!) The greatest homecoming in Wilmington College history was planned for November 13. Events began Saturday morning with the laying of the cornerstone of the men’s dormitory and the unveiling of the bronze tablet which listed the names of those who have labored longest for the dorm. Vernon Wlils, a senior from New Kensington, Pa., led in the number of hours. It was he who addressed the assembled crowd that rainy morning when the white stone bearing the simple inscription, “Built by Students—1949” was placed at the northwest corner. The Homecoming Parade was composed of several top high school bands from Ohio and floats built by campus organizations. With scepter and crown, freshman Nancy Harper reigned over the football game played with Thiel College. The annual alumni banquet boasted the largest attendance in col- lege history. Then the gym was cleared for the dance. Homecoming celebration of the 13th was the climax of the four-day conference, “Building For a Better Tomorrow,” which was held pre- ceding it. Nationally known speakers were here for the conference— among them Dr. David H. Dietz, science editor of the Scripps-Howard newspapers; Dr. D. Elton Trueblood, professor of philosophy at Earl- ham College and chairman of the Friends World Committee on Consul- tation; and Dr. Benjamin Fine, education editor of the New York Times. The formal opening of the Industrial Arts Building and presentation of the building opened the conference. A private telephone broadcast by Herbert Hoover highlighted one session. ‘Let us remember,” he said, “that the great human advances have not been brought about by mediocre men and women. They were brought about by distinctly uncommon men and women with vital sparks of leadership, and although many of these great leaders were of humble origin, that was not their greatness. Our full hope of recovery in the moral and spiritual world is a wealth of uncommon men and women a) Ve among our people ... 1am for Wilmington College, and I want to con- gratulate its president, its faculty, and its students on three counts. The first is its revolutionary idea of self-help; the second is that it is a small college, and the third is that from it will flow the uncommon men and women. And the nation needs them.” Wilmington College continued its tri-weekly broadcasts over radio station WPFB, Middletown. Prof. I. G. Hawk, producer of the program, appointed Paul Hannaford co-ordinator of Campus Parade. Paul served as a link between the members of the broadcasting staff and the Public Relations Office. In November, too, the Student Senate gained control of the Student Union. A manager was appointed, and finances were handled through him for the Student Senate. Journalists from neighboring high schools visited our campus for the Second Annual High School Writers Conference sponsored by Alpha Phi Gamma, journalism fraternity. Ollie James, chief editorial writer for the Cincinnati Enquirer, spoke at the banquet which followed round table discussions. “I used to be an old newspaperman myself,” he told the students, “until I found out there wasn’t any money in old papers.” Nine of our student body were selected to receive recognition in “Who’s Who Among Students In American Universities and Colleges.” Those honored were Paul Hannaford, Bob Lacker, Ruth Lacker, Ruth Carter, Douglas Parker, Aileen Smith, Paul Young, Stan Brown, and June Stuckey. The Varsity “W” Association organized a Boosters’ Club which sup- ported all of WC’s athletic games and teams. Members sat together in reserved sections for all the basketball games. Our Aeolian Choir presented a series of Christmas concerts in near- by towns. Towns included in the tour were Blanchester, Batavia, Lynch- burg, West Union, Lebanon, Germantown, Greenfield, Middletown, and Hillsboro. Stanley High, roving editor of the Reader’s Digest, spent four days on our campus formulating a story for use in the Reader’s Digest. Al- though Mr. High’s purpose in coming to Wilmington was to investigate the dorm project and the college’s philosophy of education, he left the student body with much of his own philosophy concerning the affairs of the world. Arguing against appeasement and concessions to totalitarianism at a convocation program, he said, “If we surrender our principles, we will never have peace.” During Christmas vacation, a delegation from Alpha Phi Gamma, journalism fraternity, attended the national convention at Redlands, California. Charles Mowrey, president, headed the group. Also during Christmas vacation, our_ business office was visited. Wilmington is a friendly college, but Bruce Robe, night watchman, showed no signs of friendliness when he surprised two men in the act of break- ing into the office vault. One student remarked that it had to be an “outside job,” because anyone who knew anything at all about WC, knew that there was no-money to be gotten! —247— In January, Betty Lou Parker returned from a three month’s tour with Kryl’s Women’s Symphony Orchestra of Chicago. She was first flutist. Also in January, the band gave a concert which included everything from Concert Overture to Boogie Woogie. Omicron cast of Alpha Psi Omega, national dramatics fraternity, pre- sented a night of two one-act plays, January 20. Professor Heiland di- rected “Trifles,” a drama by Susan Glaspell; and Marian McVey di- rected “If Men Played Cards As Women Do,” the comedy by George Kaufman. That was the month the Student Senate assumed control of the Activ- ity Fee collection and distribution. Alpha Psi Omega took its production, “Trifles,” on the road. Aft- ernoon and evening performances were given at nearby towns. Profes- sor Heiland directed the play at all performances. The Quaker Quips changed its editor and business manager at mid- year. Frank Adae and Truman Casson, both freshmen, stepped into the empty shoes. The figure “8000” appearing in the boxes by the Quips nameplate mystified students until the next issue explained that 8000 hours of student-faculty labor had been put into the 85-man dormitory. Some faculty members are still being blackmailed by students who have photographs taken at the faculty kid party. Some of their outfits were ingenious. Prof. Burritt Hiatt won the prize. He was dressed like a baby—cap, bib, and milk bottle included. That’s not all. All dur- ing the party he did not utter any sound except the characteristic “goo- goo!” Poor Caleb Smith suffered from attacks of kleptomania during which he entertained himself collecting the dolls that the girls had brough to the party. Then rush parties and bidding held the spotlight for pledges. Second semester was suddenly upon us, and the confusion of: regis- tering for classes caught up with everyone. Twenty-seven lucky kids allowed to enroll for the first time. Seven of our seniors were grad- uated. But all was well—enrollment breakdown revealed that the ratio of boys to.girls was still almost 4 to 1! When the whistle blew at 8 P. M., Friday, March 4, Wilmington saw the strangest basketball game of the season. Taking the floor were the “Faculty Five” against a mixture of students representing various campus organizations. The farcical student-faculty game was played as a bene- fit for the World Student Service Fund campaign. Even the players paid to get inside the gym! “Bucket Boy” Shelly and “Dear John” Col- lins were coaches. Not until the last quarter did the game reach any semblance of order. Then the students tied the score at 40 points, go- ing on to win the overtime 47 to 42. Dr. Marble is still bragging about fending off several student scoring attempts from his perch atop the back- board. At half time he twirled the baton as the faculty played its marching song, “Go Fetch the Linament, Mother, I’ve Had a Rough Night.” Professor Heiland, better known as “Horrible Hugo,” that night —248— gave the fans a real show when he entered the gym clad in a Rough Rider’s hat, anemic-red pants, and bathrobe. With complete composure he tevealed in a series his BVD’s, skivvies, snuggies, and finally, regula- tion sport shorts! High-point man for the faculty was “Gorgeous George” Bowman. “Coach Killer’ Kornman, “Jumping Jack” Wilson, “Ball Hog” Griffiths, “Double Dribble’ Morgan, “Madman Muntz” Smith, “Long Shot” Stopp, “Dark Horse” Hazard, “Sloppy Shot” Stanfield, “Dead Eye” Derby, “Hard-Hearted” Hiatt, even the cheerleaders... . everybody wanted to “get in the act!!” The Second International Folk Music Festival was held on the campus March 10, 11, and 12. The program was divided into four sections. The first, on Thursday, was music of the United States. On Friday, nearly 200 high school musicians came here to sing in the first Ohio All-State High School Folk Music Chorus. Charles C. Hirt, director of choral organization at the University of Southern California in Los Angeles, was the guest conductor. Saturday afternoon and evening programs featured music of many lands and people. Prof. Rolla Foley, chairman of the college music department, directed the festival. —— THE 1000-PIECE MASSED BAND ON HOMECOMING DAY THE YOUNG LADY IS JEAN ASHBY oe ON ee The Cove, our year-old student union, was closed down for redecor- ation and the installation of new equipment. It opened March 18, shin- ing inside and out. Walls and booths had been painted. The counter had been moved out a few more feet to make room for the grill, french- frier, and other new equipment. A juke box that plays 100 selections brightened up the interior so that every student is making the Cove his second home. March saw the beginning of a $200,000 fund-raising campaign to build a new auditorium and class room building on the campus. This drive is the greatest ever attempted in Wilmington College history. Its success will determine whether Wilmington will be a rather insig- nificant small school or whether it will move forward to become one of the best small colleges in Ohio, and in the nation. For the first time in its history, the college Aeolian Choir moved into the Murphy Theatre for its annual home co ncert. Its appearance this year on March 31 marked another success. The choir hopes to pro- mote international understanding through the medium of the univer- sal tongue—music. A portion of the four-hour repertoire was heard at the home concert. Featured soloists were Betty Lou Parker, flutist; —250— Elizabeth Sayre, pianist and choir accompanist; the Barber Shop Quartet; Betty Milligan, soprano; and the Choir Folk Dancers. During spring va- cation and also on several weekends, the choir appeared at nearby towns to present concerts. This is the first year that the choir has operated as a student-governed body with its own officers an d constitution. At the beginning of the year, the choir arranged to purchase a school bus which they converted into one they could use on these trips and which would also be available for other college organizations desiring trans- portation to plays, conventions, or other functions. Professor Foley di- rects the choir: it is he who is largely responsible for its successful ap- pearances. Students—and merchants of Wilmington!—will never forget April’s showers of silver dollars. We paid and were paid with silver dollars. As these circulated, townspeople realized fully, perhaps for the first time, how much our college really contributes to the town’s businesses. March 31, Prof. Menzo Stark played host here to 40 college profes- sors of industrial arts, who attended the conference on Industrial Arts for Teacher Education. Then, again on April 30, the campus welcomed the Miami Valley Industrial Arts Association, a high school group of 220 departments. Professor Stark is president of both organizations. On April 26 and 27, Wilmington College Players, sponsored by Alpha Psi Omega, national dramatic fraternity, presented the spring play, “The Late Christopher Bean,” by Sidney Howard. The second night was Senior Day here. Nearly 300 high school seniors visiting the campus helped make up the audience. Libby Little, sophomore, played the leading role of Abby. Also in the play were Paul Hannaford, Vernon Kuehn, Ed Lane, Marian McVey, Joyce Flitcraft, Martin Shapiro, Steve Olah, and Mary Binegar. Professor Heiland directed the play. Last week in April was the date for the big Freshman Picnic, spon- sored by the freshman class for the entire college. Really one of the grand outings of the year. The scene of the affair was Fort Ancient State Park. New Student Senate members also took over about this time. April 29-30 and May 1 the Y’s held the annual spring conference at Tar Hollow State Park. The first two dates also marked the Ohio College Newspaper Association meeting at Wittenberg College which was at- tended by several of the campus journalists. May was the busy month for everyone. Discounting final examina- tions, which is hardly possible, there were few short of a million and one things to do. The first big thing was the Recognition Day program on May 18 with the reading of the winning Rhoda Corwin essay and the naming of Mr. and Miss Wilmington College of 1949. Next week brought the Phi Beta Phi formal for the entire campus. May 23 was Illumination Night with the crowning of the new May Queen. Mary Jane Abell stepped down, giving up her crown and scepter. Sen- ior Class Convocation came May 25 with an added. bit of faculty-ribbing and bequests. y Commencement Week was crowded with events. Baccalaureate came Sunday, May 29, followed by the Senior Class Play—Tennessee Wil- liams’ “The Grass Menagerie’—on June 1-2. The latter night was oc- —251— cupied with the Alumni Banquet. More than 100 seniors walked across the auditorium stage to receive their sheepskins. This is the largest grad- uating class in many years. The publication of the 1949 Wilmingtonian rather officially marks the winding up of this year’s activities. Some of what it brought to us will be forgotten, but not all, for we are a part of all that happened to us; and now while next year’s plans and dreams are being formulated, we will remember, even as we shall remember Wilmington College in the years to come, when memory fades. —-(Claudia wHatcm ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Printing: The Wilmington Publishing Company, Wilmington.

THE FUTURE 1949-2 A PROGRAM FOR THE FUTURE (Reprinted from the editorial columns of the Quaker Quips, April 13, 1948.) Wilmington has its start today on what appears to be the greatest build- ing program ever to be undertaken by the College. Most needed among proposed college buildings, the new men’s dormitory will feel the way for future facilities in building space. If the dormitory proves as success- ful as planners feel it will, a perma- nent Student Union will go up on Lu- dovic Street. But, the entire dormi- tory must be constructed before fur- ther undertakings are made. As things now stand, one unit of the five-unit dormitory will be built at a time to allow for completion of single units. This might not be possible if the en- tire building were begun. Later, comes the Arts and Music Building, which figures so prominent- ly in the newly expanded and created Music and Speech-Dramatics Depart- ments. The gymnasium-auditorium has proven itself incapable of holding capacity audiences. We can clearly see the need of a large comfortable auditorium-theatre when we look back at such campus events as the inaugura- tion of President Marble, the fall play “Tomorrow the World,” the American Friends Service Committee conference, and the International Folk Festival, to name a few of the more prominent. A decent assembly hall for chapel exer- cises cannot be easily overlooked in reviewing campus necessities. The launching of this new student- built program will be outstanding, if not unique. It has been carried out very successfully on many campuses throughout the United States. Few, however, as small as WC have ever engaged themselves in such a monu- mental task. Interest and participation of the stu- dents and faculty members will serve to be indicative of what can be ex- pected of the present group in the future, and of incoming groups in fu- ture planning. Whatever the amount of devotion shown for this program, the results may not draw a true picture of future zeal, but it cannot differ greatly. If we are sincere and willing to help out, others will take up where we have left off. The first building means the having or the not having of other much needed campus buildings. No one can constructively argue that our facilities are not below par. The North Cen- tral Association says so. They placed us last fall in the bottom 10% of mem- ber colleges and universities. That alone should be reason enough for both student and faculty to pledge themselves to the success of this build- ing program. It is our school; we must give in order to receive. And in giving, we will feel ourselves a part of the College more so than ever be- fore. South Hall, substantial for its 61 years but far from being in first-class condition, was a boys’ dormitory until 1945. At that time, the girls moved in and the boys out. At the present time, no men’s dormitory stands on the campus. That is in itself deplor- able. Three government barracks are the only campus housing facilities for unmarried male students. Several places have been constructed which serve as centers for goodly numbers of men, but a good-sized men’s housing unit is necessary to keep the men on campus. This is an undeniably great factor in the fostering of school spirit. And, this need not be the last men’s dormitory; others will be just as badly needed in the future of the College. Since the curriculum has been ex- panded and new and complete de- arte partments added, the enrollment here should not suffer too greatly. The progressivism of Wilmington College will be enough to get “good” students to come to the campus “to learn, to earn, to live.” The school, through such projects as this, will become known as a student’s school. The veteran enrollment, it is true, will subside, but the number of high school graduates entering directly into higher education is increasingly great- er than in past years. Wilmington College serves a large area, and a wholesome population. The college community extends over many coun- tries and touches everyone. Scholar- ships bring the needy, more intelligent graduates of the community’s public schools into the halls of higher learn- ing, and in this way give them the chance they so very likely might never have otherwise had. The building of the men’s dormitory by student-faculty pledged labor will make the college a thing of which each student upon graduation may feel proud. He will look back to see the product of his own labor and _ say: “That is: part: mine; Heximay eabe Aplibsbatsresertscae PARKING 36 CARS ea ees LiL, BLDG. 1 - Fittings Station ReLtocateo BLDG G - Fine Aarts + Aupitorium BLOG ® II - Carerenia, Stunent Union Bure. 2 - CHAPEL 7 Future Liberar Arts Dept. 2 Bovs Bormitory 3 - ApvministRaTion Broa.

LETHLY, ARCHITECT ZHVMERMAN BLD SPRINGFIELD OHO speaking of the dormitory or future buildings, but he will really mean “the College.” He will have something here to show for his time spent within the gates. Whatever he takes with him in learn- ing and growth will be greatly stabil- ized and strengthened by his closeness to some part of the campus. As Wilmington College expands, ac- cording to or independent of the Mas- ter Plan, the student will be a key factor. His needs and desires will de- termine the course of expansions, just as they have with the first project. Faculty alone were not consulted prior to approving this move. Stu- dents made up the majority at all meetings. An even greater number of students were consulted before the final plans were made. The student was important, very important. In the educational philosophy of our new, young president, Dr. Samuel D. Marble, there is a large, warm spot for the student who will think and do for himself. The College exists for the student, and not the student for the College. It will be this way so long as Dr. Marble is president. His philosophy crystallizes in the building of leader- ship in the colleges and universities of the country by permitting these poten- tially great minds to practice leader- ship here, where they are learning. Making the student a part of the College and the College a part of the student through creative work is the first step. How fruitful it will be depends upon a great number of fac- tors, first of which 1s the enthusiasm of the students themselves. The stu- dent will strengthen and be strength- ened by doing his part.
