Marzolf Editor-in-Chief Kathryn Kantz Business Manager 1925 CXW Dedication 95, � HERE comes to but few of us the opportunity to hacc as an in- structor in our youth a really great man. But among that priviliged few we feel we may justly number ourselves, hor during the past four years we have had the guidance of a man who in that time has endeared himself in the hearts of all of us. From the scanty material he found here, he has developed a department which has won for itself national recognition in the forensic world. lo this man, who has done so much for us. we, the Junior class of Wittenberg college, do dedicate this number of our annual publication, the W ittenberger. Foreword 4$ time passes, the memories of our college days gradually fade and die away, and were it not for some lasting chronicle of the persons, episodes and traditions of these days, many of them would be lost from mind. lo forestall such a lamentable fading of memories, we have published this book. Through it may the setting sun of memory again tint the windows of the past and light up the shadowy depths within, replete with memories of cherished days at our Alma Mater. i a6aII°0 aHX I MOOH “Sunshine and shadow play Across the dial of youth's fair day.’’ Eida M.

At that time Dr. John 0. Evjen. the newly elected professor of Church History, gave the opening address before the faculty, stu- dent body and visiting pastors, assembled in the chapel. Immediately following this service, a fellowship luncheon was held at the Refectory. Hamma Divinity School is an outstanding theological institution of the United Lutheran Church in America. Within its walls are trained a corps of workers who. at the completion of their three-year course, go out into the world and do their share in extending the Kingdom of Christ. Her graduates are to be found in all parts of this country and also in many mission fields abroad. The annual commencement this year was held in the Fourth Lutheran church, Sunday evening. May 3d. Dr. F. A. Dressel of Richmond, president of the Indiana Synod of the United Lutheran Church in America, preached the sermon. Eight men, members of the senior class, received their diplomas. Prospects for an increase in enrollment for the coming year are exceedingly good, according to Dean L. H. Larimer. I hose pursuing courses this year numbered 41. including the special students. -� • 1925 •« P« e One Hundred Six WiJJenberge r Pace One Hundred Seven 1925 o WjJJenberger 1925 o Page One Hundred Eight S3H!AH°V II MOOH ■WiMenberger 1925 ••« • Page One Hundred Ten -WjMenfcerger The Boost Wittenberg Association Officers RALSTON THOMPSON - ANDREW DEY - - - JOHN SLATER - - - DEAN ROSS MILLER - President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer OREMOST among the organizations on the campus is the Boost Wit- tenberg Association, the only official student representative body. Its membership consists of male representatives of all the societies and publications and representatives of all the men’s social groups. Regular meetings are held at which matters of interest to student body arc discussed and plans are made for the attainment of the ideal. The Greater Wittenberg. Among its achievements in past years has been the sponsoring of the annual Honor Day Banquet. The time of the Honor Day Banquet, usually held in April, is the only one at which the entire student body and the faculty arc assem- bled. I his association also prescribes the freshman rules and sells the freshman cap. Every effort is made to preserve the old traditions of the college. Other movements for the bettering student life at Wittenberg, scholastically and socially, are to be credited to this organization.

The Y. M. has had for its goal the free giving of campus and community service, the providing of opportunities for spiritual improvement, and exprcssional 510 ■ activities as an outlet for Christian enthusiasm. 1 lere follows a brief summary of the more important activities of the “Y since March. 1924: Co-operative enterprises with the Y. W. C. A. were very successful. The special Mothers' Day program on May 10th and I I th. when mothers of Y. M. and Y. W. members were the guests of the two associations: the ''General Jam. held in Memorial Mall for all students and faculty, entertained 600: the bringing of Dr. Curry and Milton Stauffer as speakers: the establishment of a Social Service Bureau and consequent co-operation in rendering service: the joint Christmas service and the stand taken on Class Room Honor: these activities created a spirit of constructive Christian fellowship among the men and women of the college. Some of the outstanding bits of campus service in co-operation with the Y. W. were: Public cation of the 1 landbook. given free to all students and faculty; holding of twelve religious meet- ings with speakers: as chapel speakers in addition to the two mentioned before. Senator Fcss. Chas. R. Brown of Yale. Dr. George S. Lackland of Denver. Sherwood Fxldy. H. L. Seamans: social functions. “Open I louse for Big and Little Brothers. General Jam. All College Men’s Stag outdoors, where 300 attended, a mid-year indoor social event; the service rendered new students by the New Student Committee: distribution of the Handbook, meeting trains, in- formation desk, two social functions, and assignment of a Big Brother who helped the new man through the maze of matriculation intricacies: and surely but quietly while these open activities were carried on. a religious influence was working among the men. In the way of community service, twenty church services were conducted in community and out-of-town churches by teams of college men. The average attendance at these services was 196. Five delegates attended the Lake Geneva Summer Camp, two each were sent to the State Y Convention, the Student Volunteer Convention, and the Lutheran Student Association Conference in Pittsburgh. The president served as chairman of the State Student Council, made up of the some thirty-odd presidents of the student Y's in Ohio: as a member of the State Executive Committee and the National Council, the latter two bodies being the highest executive bodies of the Y. M. C. A. brotherhood in their respective fields. With a total initiated membership of 105 and receiving financial support from the Student Chest to the extent of $960. and moral support of a large portion of the student body, the Y has experienced a very successful year. • 1925 o F «kc One Hundred Fourteen WjlJenberger Page One Hundred Fifteen 1925 —Willenberge;— The College Y.

O LIVE unreservedly Jesus’ law of love in every relationship of life and so to know God. The college Y. W. C. A. cabinet, having adopted this slogan as the theme of its personal life, has attempted to instill it as a living motto in the heart of every Y. W. C. A. member. The program of work followed by the Y. V. has been an all-campus affair, in that the work has never been restricted to members of the Y. W. but affects every college girl. Probably the most active committee at the beginning of the school year is the membership committee, assisted by the social committee, headed this year by Pauline Rilling and Dorothy Brown, respectively. The membership com- mittee has charge of the Big and Little Sister Movement which provides that every new girl shall have an upper classman as a big sister to encourage and direct her through her first year of college.

W.’s share in the General Jam.” and hikes and teas, which are held during the opening weeks of school so that the new girl will soon lose her feeling of loneliness. Another department which deserves added consideration is that of Social Service, which department, with Dorothy Printz as its head, has provided Easter, Thanksgiving and Christmas baskets for numerous needy families of the city. In addition, this committee assists in providing workers for the Set- tlement House as well as teachers for Sunday Schools in or near Springfield A new addition to the Cabinet is the Industrial department, of which Elsie Roth is the Chairman. The purpose of this committee is to develop a spirit of co-operation and helpfulness among industrial and college girls. In addition to the local work of the Y. W. C. A., it is also quite active nation- ally. for Betty Larimer, president of the local Y. W., is also a member of the National Y. W. Student Council, as well as chairman of the Cabinet Training Commission. Pauline Rilling represented the Y. V. at Dr. Curry's Bible Con- ference. held at Saugatuck, Michigan. Just previous to this conference seven of our girls attended the Geneva Conference. I he Y. W. C. A. is very fortunate in having as advisors Mrs. T. B. Birch. Mrs. J. A.

Prof. Paul R. Brees on June I. 1921. only a small number of men and women have been given the privilege of wearing the TKA key by being elected to mem- bership. For a man may become eligible only by representing his college in an intercollegiate debate or an oratorical contest. Member- ship to this select group has thus become the highest reward that this college can offer its debaters and orators, the goal of every college student interested in forensics. I his year has marked a new epoch in the life of the fraternity. It is the first time in the history of the chapter that membership ha; been extended to the fair co-eds who have so nobly distinguished themselves in the forensic field. The aim of I au Kappa Alpha is twofold. It offers a strong incentive for an undergraduate to develop whatever gifts he or she may have along forensic lines which are remaining latent, either through lack of practice, or because of false modesty. However the fraternity docs not stop at this, but has for its fundamental purpose the bestowal of honor upon those to whom honor is due. It confers upon those, who through faithful application and natural ability have attained forensic laurels, a permanent honor which is recognized throughout the entire nation in more than fifty of our largest colleges and universities. 1925 Pa«c One Hundred Twenty WjMe� be;ger Page One Hundred Twenty-one Wittenberger Men’s ’Varsity Debate I I rENBERG hits come into her own. in the field of forensics, during the past two years. The debate teams representing the Alma Mater arc no longer of mere moderate strength, but they are feared by every college in the Ohio conference. They must be reckoned with in the final counting. During the present year, the debate squad has atwell represented its Alma Mater. It has enjoyed a very successful season, finishing the season in second place in the conference standing. This success to be sure was due j .. 'n a certain sense to the tireless efforts of the individual members, but it was in the final analysis the guiding and molding hand and also the noble spirit of our beloved coach. Professor Brccs. that has led the teams to the success which they have achieved. To him must go the credit for the teams’ success. This year's squad was chosen by competitive tryouts the latter part of the last school year and work on the question was begun by the members at once. This extended time, together with the new system adopted by the coach. Professor Brees. namely, of not choosing the men for a position permanently but rather placing it on a competitive basis, i. c.. each member competing for a place before each debate, has resulted in a broad knowledge of the subject and a more efficient team in general. The question for debate was. “Resolved, that the United States and Canada should jointly construct the St. Lawrence Deep-Sea Waterway.” I he schedule for the season as well as the votes of the judges was as follows: Date At I lome Dec.

Last year the co-ed de- baters laid claim to the championship of practically three states, as a result of defeating the strongest co-ed teams in Ohio. Michigan, and Indiana. The girls did not lose the vote of a single judge, a record which will go down in the annals of the college as a remarkable feat. I he ability of the debate coach. Prof. Paul R. Brees. can never be disputed. He is a master in the forensic field. The squad this year has not been quite so successful but nevertheless it has indeed enjoyed a very remarkable season. With tryouts taking place early in the school year a large squad started work on the question. “Resolved. I hat there should be no discrimination against the Japanese in our present Immi- gration Laws.” This year's squad was coached by Mr. Gerald Bush under the supervision of Professor Brees.

Page One Hundred Twenty-three 1925 WjJJenberger DAYTON W1SEHART MILLER Intercollegiate Oratory ITTENBERG’S accomplishments in the field of oratory have indeed been most remarkable during the past three years. A few years back Wittenberg was considered a weak college in the forensic field, in fact she was not even represented in the State Oratorical Contests. But times and conditions have changed, and today Wittenberg stands among the best in the state. She bows her head to none. Wittenberg’s coveted reputation in the oratorical field is recognized throughout the state. She must be reckoned with in the final count. Last year William Simons creditably represented Wittenberg in the State Old Line Contest held at Heidelberg College, on February 15. 1924. Carl F. W. Strobel won second place in the State Peace Contest held in the local college chapel on May I. 1924. Mr. Strobel spoke on The Passing of Isolation. Mr. Hoover of Otterbein College won first place. I hus far this year Wittenberg has been equally successful. Oratory this year was placed on a competitive basis. Six men were selected by competitive tryouts to compose the oratorical squad. Those chosen were: Russell Dayton. John Miller. Albert Birch. John Slater. Harlan Howard, and Lester Crowl. Each man competed for the coveted opportunity of representing his Alma Mater in the state contests. From this group Russell Dayton and John Miller were chosen to represent the college. I he State Old Line Contest for this year was held at Otterbein College. Westerville. Ohio, on February 20. 1925. Russell Dayton represented Witten- berg in this contest, winning third place, speaking on the dope evil. The title of Dayton’s oration was “Within the Shadows. Wooster and Otterbein took first and second places respectively. John Miller represented the local school in the State Peace Contest held at Heidelberg College, Tiffin. Ohio, in May. The theme of every oration for this contest was the subject of peace. This year has also seen another step forward in the field of Oratory at the local school. Wittenberg is now represented by a girl orator in the women’s State Oratorical Contest. Miss Ethel Wisehart was the co-ed who was chosen to represent the college in this contest which was held at Heidelberg College. Tiffin. Ohio. May 8, 1925. • 1925 «- Page One Hundred Twenty-four WjJ lenberger Euterpea N 1886 a few of the coeds of Wittenberg College realized that there was an urgent demand for a woman’s literary society and established Euterpea. The founders were Lulu Cumback. Esther Crawford. Sally Breckcnridge. Lillian Stough. Mary Baer and Jennie Neal. Euterpea has for its motto ‘Curae Nihil Impossible Est and the colors arc gold and blue. Although there have been times when the Euterpcan Literary Society seemed to be slowly drifting into non-existence, it is today making great progress. It has of late labored under the strain of the competition of the numerous campus activities, but still Euterpea maintains her rightful place in the life of the college girl. The society was divided for several years into a junior and a senior Euterpea which for a time proved successful. It was reorganized in 1921 into one body and membership was placed on a scholarship basis. Since then Euterpea has grown to such an extent that at present it exerts a marked influence over the literary life of the college. At the time of the 1924 Commencement an Euterpean tea was given. This afforded an opportunity for the reunion of the alumnae and active members of the society. The aim of Euterpea is to create a greater desire for literary work among the girls of the school and to encourage and dcvelope whatever talents each member may possess. Miscellaneous programs arc given and at some time during the year each member is given the opportunity to take her part. Eu- terpean prospects for next year are very bright and much is to be expected from this literary organization.

It gives opportunity for prospective teachers and their instructors to meet in a social way and strive to promote the interests of education as a profession. I he need for such an organization has been amply shown in the national growth in the past two years.

Every year a well trained club has creditably toured the larger towns and cities of the states of Ohio. Indiana, and Kentucky. The chorus has always been a decided asset to the college and wherever it has gone, it has brought fame and glory to our dear old Alma Mater. The present club is indeed not lacking in this respect, in fact it surpasses any that has gone before. With the establishment of the School of Music and the giving of college credit to members of the club whose work is supplemented by theoretical study, a greater interest has been taken in the club on the part of the student body. The result has been that more talent has been attracted to the Club. All this, together with the efficient and capable direction of Prof. Frederick Lewis Bach, has made possible the present success of the Club. The Glee Club this year has found no difficulty whatever in booking cities. It took one spring tour with engagements at Columbus. Carey. Galion and Mansfield. The Club was remarkably well accepted and received much praise wherever it appeared. Many compliments have been received by the Club from radio fans praising the ability and singing of the Club. As an advertising agency the Glee Club has served its Alma Mater well. It has placed Wittenberg before the eyes of the public in more ways than one. and above all has been a great aid in helping the college to raise the required money for the Rockefeller foundation gift. The college appreciates the work of the Club and is proud of the Club’s success. Personnel PROFESSOR JOI IN FREDERICK LEWIS BACH. Conductor Director Accompanist Violinist Soloist PAUL N.

Wit- tenberg can truthfully say that she has such an organization on the campus, and one worthy of much praise. Each year the Club tours the larger towns and cities of the state, helping to spread the fame and glory of dear old Wittenberg. The choruses in the past have been noted for their remarkable singing and the present chorus lives up to the reputations of the past clubs in every respect. The local chorus participated for the first time in the Girls' Glee Club Contest of the Ohio colleges, held in Dayton, taking third place. The club is to be congratulated. The Home Concert given in the High School Auditorium was a decided success, the singing of the club being very highly praised by all present. Officers PROFESSOR JOHN THOMAS WILLIAMS.

The present band has had undue trials and tribulations to be sure, but in spite of such handicaps it has been crowned with the laurels of success. That success has indeed been due mainly to our own Professor of Wind Instruments—B. D. Gilliland. Now the college bands in the past have been content to merely be able to play as a band and to serve at games and other public occasions according to the accepted modes set down in the unwritten conventions of college ways. In fact they were well pleased with just making a little noise for the college. But our present band has not been satisfied with this; it has gone one step further, namely to play in public concerts. Two such concerts have been given thus far in this school year for public approval. The first concert, held in the college chapel, was broadcasted. It was in truth a roaring success. Speaking of this concert a certain radio fan in New Jersey, in a personal letter to Prof. Weaver, of this college, said, It was the best concert heard over radio this year! I he other concert was held in Grace M. E. Auditorium of this city. It was likewise a success and was met with much praise. At present the band is preparing for their third concert. We hope there will be still more. The band’s rendering of “The Spirit of Wittenberg March. the words written by our beloved Dr. Albert H. Studebakcr (whose recent death bereaved all Wittenbergers). and the music by Professor B. D. Gilliland himself, will go down in the annals of the college as one of the outstanding events of the present year. It contains the old pep and fight that will lead many a Wittenberg team on to victory. It is a fitting memorial to both Dr. Studebakcr and Mr. Gilliland. We are proud of our band and its director. We hope it will never die but be a lasting organization. Clarinets Margaret Jane Schneider William B-oldt Raymond W. Shade PERSONNEL Bassoon I larold Stallsmith Saxophones G. F. Shupc Leslie O.

At that time the existence of three publi- cations on the campus had brought college journalism to a high po- sition. It was felt that an organization was needed to coordinate the work of The Porch, The Wittenbcrger and The Witt, and at the same time to honor those students who were prominent in journalistic ac- tivities. This year Scroll and Quill sponsored a high school journalistic conference held at Wittenberg. As last year, it supervised the sophomore class in their election of the editor and business manager for the year book. In the future it is hoped that a strong national journalistic fraternity will grant a charter to Scroll and Quill.

HE Ohio Delta chapter of Theta Alpha Phi. national honorary dramatic fraternity, first made its appearance on the campus in the year 1922. During the few years that have elapsed since that time, such rapid progress has been made that at the present time it is one of the out- standing honorary fraternities on the campus. The privilege of becom- ing a member in Theta Alpha Phi is the highest honor which Wittenberg can bestow upon her deserving actors and actresses. Requirements for membership in the organization are very strenuous, making it practically impossible for a person to become a member until his or her Junior year. Io become a member one must have carried a major part in two long plays, or a minor part in four long plays, or been cither Property or Business Manager in two long productions, at the local college. Participation in dramatic productions at other schools and colleges arc not accepted. Since its appearance on the campus the fraternity has produced several very difficult productions, it being the custom of the society to give a campus play each year during Commencement Week. Ingomar was given in the spring of 1923. I he campus play for last year was The Merchant of Venice. the production of which received such extraordinary commendation that it was requested that a second performance be given. In accordance with the wishes of numerous Wittenbergers and others, The Merchant of Venice” was re-given in the Fairbanks Theatre on Friday night. December 5, 1924. The fraternity plans to give Hamlet this spring on some evening during Commencement Week. The dramatic productions have all been coached and directed by Prof. Paul R. Brees. Department of Public Speaking, who is also a member of the frater- nity. The organization is highly indebted to him for his services both in the direction of plays and his advisory ability. The success of the organization is due to a large extent to his personal efforts. Due to the fact that the requirements for membership make the fraternity almost a purely honorary organization, in order to make it an active one the fraternity this year has formulated a pledge system. The pledges are selected by competitive tryouts held at specified times, and after being initiated and having taken the pledge ceremony are permitted to wear the Theta Alpha Phi pledge pin. I his system enables the fraternity to locate and honor those stu- dents of outstanding dramatic ability and furnishes a list from which the organi- zation can draw when any extra players are needed for any of the dramatic productions. This pledgeship lasts until the requirements for membership have been fulfilled at which time the pledge is entitled to membership in the fraternity itself. The pledges for the present year arc: Founta Davis. Lauretta Bocklev. Donald I left. Mildred Wilson. Louise Richison. Arthur Cunningham. Martha Juergens. Livia Allen. Earl F.vans. Alice Dovell.

Under the direction of Coach Ernest ‘‘King Godfrey, the Fighting Lutherans have put up a noble fight in every line of sport. They have not always been victorious, as the records show, but at least, they have always given their best, and on every occasion have been true sportsmen, taking defeat rather than gain victory through unfair methods.

The Student Managers 0 LESS important to the success of Wittenberg athletic teams than the efforts of the athletes themselves, is the faithful service of the men who work day after day as student managers with little recognition for their services. During the last year. Wittenberg’s seven student man- agers have been conscientious in their attempts to aid members of the athletic teams, ever being near to help the athletes in whatever way they could.

Walter Kuhn and Francis Winkey The Cheer Leaders HREE of the most important persons at any athletic contest in which Wittenberg participated during the last year were her three cheer leaders, Robert Taylor. Francis Winkey and Walter Kuhn. These three chaps, noted for their pep, manifested the ability to spread enthusiasm in such a way that Wittenberg’s athletic teams were never lacking for support from the sidelines. Along with the athletes and the man- agers. the cheer leaders must also be given recognition for their share in Witten- berg’s athletic triumphs, for without their aid the support would have been un- organized and inefficient in its effort to spur the Lutherans on to mightier deeds. Taylor and Winkey are seniors, each having spent three years as leaders of Wittenberg rooters. Pater One Hundred Fifty-seven 1925 (ditlenhz;yet Front Row I .ut her Smith. Gerald Armutrong.

Our story is one of conquest: a story of great deeds by resolute men: a story of a dauntless leader and his brave band of hardy warriors. It is a story of a gloomy defeat and of a wonderful comeback: a story of victory and honor and glory. It is the story of Wittenberg's Fighting Lutherans” on the football field. CHAPTER I The Season Opens The season opened on September 27th. when the team of Olivet (Mich.) college, an unknown quantity, invaded Wittenberg’s realm. Page One Hundred Sixty-three -------------WjJJenberqef---------- SMITH W 2 J CI.ATTKE W J During the first quarter the teams battled evenly, both gaining freely, but neither possessing the necessary punch when points would have resulted. The same program continued until late in the second quarter when Captain Roh- leder dropped back from right tackle and booted a perfect field goal from Olivet’s 46 yard line to give Wittenberg its first three points of the game and of the season. The same even playing again continued until late in the third quarter when the ball was taken to Olivet s nine yard line by a sudden offensive spurt. The final period had little more than opened when Poony Grimm galloped over with a touchdown and Rohleder added the extra point. Wittenberg's last touchdown came when Russ’’ Beichly. whose flashy work at quarter had been outstanding throughout the contest, squirmed and twisted 55 yards through a broken field to cross Olivet’s goal line. Rohleder was successful on the try for the extra point and Wittenberg’s team and fans were rejoicing over a 17 to 0 victory when the final whistle blew a minute later. 1925 P«KC One Hundred Sixty-lour -------------WjJIenbefqer---------- COMPTON -W 3 • CHURCHMAN W 3 CHAPTER II Rohlcdcr's Toe Wins a Game Having tasted blood, the Wittenberg warriors were ready for the Ohio university aggregation when it dropped off at the stadium the Saturday fol- lowing the Olivet game. The Ohio team proved a formidable foe and the battle raged for more than three quarters before the break came which gave Wittenberg the victory. Following a punt. Ohio fumbled on its own 26 yard line and Art” Glattke, Wittenberg's eagle-eyed ball hawker, covered the oval with alacrity. The score soon stood 3 to 0 in Wittenberg’s favor. Captain George Rohleder having used his trusty toe to give Wittenberg the points, and it was by this score that the game went to Wittenberg. Beichly's open field running was again a feature of the Lutherans' play, his most lauded stunt being an 87 yard run which resulted when he took the kickoff at the start of the final half and followed his perfect interference down the field.

Encouraged by their home rooters, the Big Reds of Denison ran rings around Wittenberg during the first quarter, the latter being lucky to hold the ambitious Denisonians to seven points made when their strategy proved too deep for the bewildered Lutherans. Enflamed with indignation that a foe. previously expected to be a stepping- stone upward in the conference standing should show such strength. Witten- berg came to life and made the count 10 to 7 in its favor before the first half ended. Beichly scored the touchdown, while Rohledcr kicked the point after touchdown and also added three points more from the field for good measure. I he points which made the final score 17 to 7 in Wittenberg’s favor came late in the last quarter when Armstrong went over for a touchdown and Rohleder kicked goal. 1925 • Page One Hundred Sixty-six ------------Witte nberq er BORST W 2 J HOWARD W I CHAPTER IV Fighting Lutherans vs. Marching Micks Back on their own home lot the following Saturday, the l ighting Lutherans stood firm against the advance of the Marching Micks from St. Xavier C ollege. The first quarter was played on practically even terms, except in the closing minutes when Wittenberg carried the ball to St. Xavier's one yard line. From this position. Dave” Eaton went over for a touchdown on the first play in the second quarter. For the first time of the year, Rohleder missed the try after touchdown. Eaton also chalked up Wittenberg’s second touchdown of the game early in the second half and Rohleder regained his kicking skill to add a point. Less than two minutes later. St. Xavier marked up seven points when a pass was caught behind Wittenberg’s goal and the additional point was secured. The final quatrer was a hectic affair.

I’«l{c One Hundred Sixty- cvcn 1925 GRIMM W 2 TUCCINARDI W I Wjttenberger CHAPTER V Reinforcements Arrive Having disposed of St. Xavier, the Cardinal and Cream warriors began a hard training period with their hearts set on defeating Ohio Wesleyan when the Red and Black should invade the Lutheran encampment on the afternoon of November 1st. The confidence of the squad increased one hundred per cent, when word came from conference headquarters that ''Bally” Compton had been declared eligible to play. Bally's” ability to boot the ball had brought him fame through- out the state and Wittenberg’s chances of victory were greatly enhanced when the state committee reinstated the long boy after previously declaring that he would be unable to play because of having officiated at athletic contests. CHAPTER VI Dame Fortune Plays I'rumps November First dawned crystal clear, an ideal day for the battle which would mean elimination from the Ohio conference race of cither the Cardinal and Cream of Wittenberg or the Red and Black of Wesleyan. 1925 •« ■ Page One Hundred Sixty-eight -------------WjJJenberqer CORNWELL W 2 J MOELLER -W 2 Game time, the stadium was filled to overflowing by a mob of football fans the like of which it had not seated since that memorable day in the fall of 1923 when Wesleyan's mighty hosts crushed the Lutheran forces in the stadium dedication engagement. 14 to 0. Promptly at 2 o’clock, the soldiers of Wittenberg faced those of Wesleyan, waiting the whistle which would send them at their foes in a fray, the result of which no one could predict. Tense, determined lines creased the face of each Lutheran warrior, but the lines on the Methodists’ faces were no less tense, no less determined. The whistle blew; the foes advanced; ten thousand howling spectators rose to their feet as one man the game was on! Wittenberg’s battle line advanced like a tornado, sweeping Wesleyan’s surprised gridders from their feet time and again during the first quarter, al- though never once being able to cross the Wesleyan goal, defended all too stub- bornly by the Red and Black in times of danger. Enraged that their opponents should so successfully stave off their thrusts, the Cardinal and Cream warriors began a march down the field, ending at Wes- P gc One Hundred Sixty-nine 1925 BARR WjJJenberger MILLER W lcyan's 33 yard line as the quarter closed.

Rohleder’s. toe worked perfectly and the score stood 10 to 0 with Wittenberg apparently on easy street when the first half ended. Fickle Lady Luck transferred her devotion with the beginning of the second half, affairs going bad for Wittenberg from the very start. The quarter was less than five minutes old when the referee ejected Armstrong from the game, de- claring that the red-head had slugged a Wesleyan player, a charge which the Wittenberger indignantly denied. A few minutes later Evans, acting captain for Wesleyan, dropped back from the line and kicked the oval over the bar for three points. Seven points to the good and less than a quarter to go!

Dame Fortune shook her magic wand and the Lutheran defense crumbled; Wesleyan gained; first 19 yards on an end run and then yard by yard until the ball rested on Wittenberg’s 30 yard line. The timer’s watch showed 43 seconds left to play. The Wesleyan quarter called for a placement kick and E. Blickle took his place. Calmly he prepared to make the attempt.

Wittenberg came back strong in the last half to make 13 points. The first touchdown was contributed by the dependable Beichly and the second by Armstrong, after plunging through a Northern guard. Rohleder made one of his tries for extra points, and the Lutherans closed their season with a 16 to 0 victory to land them safely in second place in the conference standing for the season. CHAPTER X The Curtain Drops Even with one defeat marring her season’s record. Wittenberg made a high bid for the conference championship, and second place in the conference is a 1925 Page One Hundred Seventy-four HAMBERCER ORAM Wjttenberge r position of which any school can well be proud. Besides taking second place, the Wittenberg grid warriors won for their Alma Mater greater prominence than she has known since those balmy days of perfect gridiron records several sea- sons past. To several wearers of the Cardinal and Cream also came an honor which every football man dreams of receiving—a place on the mythical All-Ohio eleven. Russell Beichly, Wittenberg’s master general, was the unanimous choice for the quarterback position, while Arthur Glattke and Captain George Rohledcr were assigned to guard and tackle jobs. Dave” Eaton. “Red’' Arm- strong. Luther Smith. John Kishman and ‘‘Bally’’ Compton were also recog- nized with honorable mention. And so ended Wittenberg’s 1924 football season, not with the winning of the conference title, but with the winning of second place; the winning of promi- nence for the college, and the winning of individual glory for which Wittenberg honors her warriors.

The Freshman Squad I 1 I ENBERG’S good showing on the football field last fall resulted largely from the faithful services of the freshman gridders who turned out day after day to take the bumps and knocks which kept the Varsity in shape to meet the best teams in the Ohio conference. According to the Wittenberg coaches, no better lineup of freshman material has ever entered Wittenberg than that which came out last fall. As a result, the coaches, after seeing the newcomers in action during the regular season and the annual spring football practice, declare that the Cardinal and Cream should have a good chance to capture the Ohio championship in 1923. Among the freshmen are two sensational kickers. Mowrey and Bradley, to whom Coach Godfrey gives the honor of being the best hooters ever seen at Wittenberg. Maus. Miller and Brant were also outstanding in their work in the freshman backfield, while Kobelt. Daum. and Cunningham appeared to have the makings of regulars for the line. While these men mentioned were the stellar performers of the freshman squad. Coach Godfrey admits that several other yearling gridders are very liable to come through and displace veterans next fall. 1925 o Page One Hundred Seventy-six PART II -----------------------WiJJenberger------------- Season s Records GAME SCORES Non-Confcrcncc Wittenberg 33, Capital 49.

Even less encouraging than in football were the cage prospects reviewed by Coach Ernest Godfrey as the practice sessions got under way. True, there were half a dozen recruits of more or less known ability, but even with these newcomers the coach saw that Wittenberg’s chances to come through for an Ohio conference championship were indeed small. But with that characteristic determination of his. the King began planning and building, until, when the time for the first pre-conference season game rolled around even he was well pleased with the result. The Lutherans, he ad- mitted. might not win the championship, but they would at least make the going hard for several of the other would-be champions. CHAPTER II The Preliminary Games Capital university’s all-star aggregation furnished the opposition in the opening game of the season, a non-conference affair staged on Capital’s own floor in Columbus, December 18th. The result, with few exceptions, was little encouraging to any hopes the Lutherans held of finishing near the top in the conference race. The score was 49 to 35 with Capital on the forward end. A bright spot in the otherwise rather drab play of the Wittenbergers was their offensive power. Although Coach Godfrey used every man on the squad.

BARR ”W’ I the Lutherans broke through consistently to score, seven of the players breaking into the scoring column for at least one field goal. Red” Armstrong, playing his first game for Wittenberg, made 14 markers. The following night, the Wittenbergers journeyed to Ashland where they trounced the Ashland college quintet. 26 to 22. Armstrong was again the scor- ing hero, milking 12 points, while Bally” Compton was responsible for seven marks. Playing on the home court at Memorial Hall for the first time on New Year's night, the Lutherans ran rough-shod over the Marietta college cagers. 46 to 35. Wittenberg led throughout, although the Marietta team came dangerously close at times. Having heard of the prowess of Red Armstrong, the Witten- berg fans turned out in flocks to see the flashy sophomore play. His work was most pleasing to say the least; 19 of Wittenberg’s points being accredited to his ability in finding the hoop. Compton was second in the scoring, with II. Ashland appeared at Memorial Hall for a return game January 29th, and the Cardinal and Cream had little trouble in repeating its previous perform- ance. the score upon this second meeting being 30 to 23 in favor of the Godfrey- men. Armstrong had an off night, making but five points, but Bally Comp- ton made up for his teammate’s slump by caging seven fielders for a 14 point total. Ihe highly touted Capital team, confident of its superiority as the result of its previous triumph over the Lutherans, dropped off at Memorial Hall for a return engagement January 16th. and after 40 minutes of stirring play proved that its confidence was well founded. I he score at the end of that time being 41 to 26 with Wittenberg in the rear. Compton led the Wittenberg scorers with 10 markers.

The final score was 25 to 22. Armstrong was high point man for Wittenberg with 10 markers, while Compton counted seven, Cornwell five and Jack Barr three. Having opened their conference season successfully, the Lutherans attacked Denison at Granville Januray 19th. The game which followed was a thriller, the final decision coming only after the teams had battled for five minutes over the regulation game. With Wittenberg trailing. 33 to 34, and a minute left to play. Jack Barr heaved the sphere through the net from the field. Just as the final shot sounded, a Wittenberg player fouled and Haskins made good on the free throw to send the game into extra minutes. At the end of this extra session. Wittenberg was on the low end of the 43 to 37 score. Compton led the Wittenberg forces with 15 points, while Armstrong was second with 10. CHAPTER IV Two More Foes Arc Vanquished Little can be said of the next game on the schedule except that it was a rout for Wittenberg. Back on the home court January 31st, the Lutherans boldly met the invasion of the Muskingum college cagers and drove the Muskies back in confusion with a 42 to 16 loss. Armstrong and Compton counted 30 points between them, the former scoring 18 and the latter 12. The next game was the exact opposite of that with Muskingum. With defeat predicted for their efforts, the l ighting Lutherans went into the contest with Wooster February 6th. determined to spill the dope. From the starting until the final whistle, the game was full of thrills but with the Wittenbergers playing their best brand of ball to date. Wooster was compelled to finish low, 36 to 27. “Bill” Bculekc was given his first real chance to function at the center posi- tion in this game and came through with colors flying, scoring 13 points, one less than the dashing Armstrong who was high scorer for the game.

Friday, the 13th Ohio Northern was scheduled to appear at Memorial Hall Friday, the I 3th. but the jinx date evidently got the Norsemen's goat because they failed to put in an appearance and Wittenberg was awarded a victory by the forfeit route. 2 to 0. The following Wednesday night the Lutherans invaded Delaware to take a crack at the Ohio Wesleyan quintet. The worm turned, however, and the Wit- tenbergers were glad enough to call it a night when the timer sounded the final gun with The Methodists” on the majority end of a 55 to 32 score. Using the Passaic high method of scoring much and guarding little, the Wesleyan team outplayed Wittenberg at all stages. Kolb, The Battling Bish- ops left guard, was the sensation of the contest, making 21 points. Armstrong and C ompton led for Wittenberg, the former with 15 and the latter with 10 points.

Knowing that they would have to play their best. The Fighting Lutherans entered the contest determined to do or die. So great were their efforts that the first half ended with Kenyon but one point to the good. 19 to 18. In the final session, the wearers of the Cardinal and Cream worked with perfect co-ordination until, with about five minutes to go. they took the lead never to be headed. The final score was 41 to 30. ample proof that even the best of teams can be defeated. Armstrong and Compton were Wittenberg's heroes, scoring 18 and 17 points, respectively.

February 23d, and was handed its ninth straight defeat. 38 to 16. Armstrong and Compton together counted 23 points, the red- head leading with 13. CHAPTER VII An Upset Otterbein came to town February 27th and proved almost as weak as Miami. The Wittenberg quintet had little trouble in winning 39 to 21 with Armstrong making one point less than the total number scored by the entire visiting team. Confident of ringing up another victory. Wittenberg visited Miami uni- versity at Oxford the next night and came home a badly humiliated group of athletes. The team which had been defeated 38 to 16 on Monday came back to down the Lutherans 31 to 22 in a game featured by the complete collapse of the Wittenbergcrs’ offense. Armstrong and Compton, usually the high scorers, made but ten points between them, and the other players were unable to get going with such little aid from their dependables. CHAPTER VIII Fighting for Fifth Place With fifth place in the conference standing at stake. Wittenberg hooked up with Denison at Memorial Hall March 6th. hoping to defeat the Baptists, not only for the sake of advancing in the conference standing but also to secure revenge for the 43 to 37 defeat handed them at Granville early in the season. Hopes were in vain, although the Lutherans went down fighting. Even with Armstrong scoring 16 points, the Cardinal and Cream was unable to pass Den- ison and was compelled to be satisfied with the weak part of the 41 to 33 count. And now we come to the end of Wittenberg's cage season. Ohio university, which had handed Wesleyan its only setback of the season, helped Wittenberg Page One Hundred Eighty-five 1924 « WiJJenberger M. BARR CRINGLE ring down the curtain March IOth. Since the Green and White had defeated Wesleyan. Lutheran rooters had little hope that their team would be able to win. But the players were of a different opinion and did their best to close the season with victory. Their efforts failed by five points, however. Ohio university winning 28 to 24. Armstrong was again high scorer with eleven points. Comp- ton and Glattkc. playing the last game with a Cardinal and Cream basketball team, put up one of the best exhibitions of their lives, the former being second among Wittenberg scorers with seven points. CHAPTER IX Summarizing ihc Season From the winning point of view. Wittenberg's basketball season was a dis- appointment. From other viewpoints it was a great success. Only two of the men on the team will graduate in June, and although these men. Compton and Glattke, will be sadly missed. Coach Godfrey has a good line on what he may expect for 1925-26. “Bally” Compton, playing his last season for Wittenberg, never put up a better brand of ball. When the season closed, the cool-headed worker was the unanimous choice for the floor guard position on the All-Ohio, and was de- clared the most finished guard in the conference. Another player to stand out was Gerald Armstrong. Although but a sopho- more. the red-headed flash carried off the high game scoring average of the con- ference by making 149 points in 1 I contests for an average of 13.5 per contest. He was placed on several All-Ohio teams, while his team mates expressed their faith in his ability by electing him to captain next season’s squad. The Lutherans failed to win all of their games, in fact won but a scant ma- jority, but in every game they performed like true Wittenbergers, playing fair and square and never once using unsportsmanlike methods in an endeavor to win. Better lose than win unfairly” was their slogan—one which can well be used by future Wittenberg teams to the honor and glory of the college. 1925 o Pane One Hunnred Kisthty-six WiJJej) berger Front Roic Theiaen.

Noe and Van Matrc were the outstanding tossers on the freshman squad, although a long list of would-be Varsity men turned out during the season and may make the regular squad next year. Afternoon classes played havoc with the freshman turnout, making it practically impossible for the coaches to get a correct line on the prospects for 1925-26. The few men who were able to come out regularly were faithful in their service and to them Wittenberg owes much for her success on the basketball court during the last season.

The Girls Team ROM the standpoint of Rames won and lost, the Wittenberg girls had a very poor season, winning but one out of seven games. I landicaps that made the going hard for the co-eds faced them the entire season and their work is to be commended es- pecially since their playing improved with each game until they put across a one-sided victory over Cedarvillc in the closing contest of the year. l or awhile, until Miss Ruth Hclscl became director of women s athletics at the begin- ning of the second semester, the girls were without a coach and heroically struggled through their schedule as best they could. With Miss I lelsel at the helm they came through better and better until they won over Cedarville in the last game, securing revenge for a defeat handed them by the same team earlier in the year. I lelen Ruh. Greenville, will captain the girls during the 1925-26 season, while I iarrict Bowe of Chagrin halls will be the manager. With most of the regulars back, the girls are looking for- ward to a good season. 1925 o Page One Hundred ELighty-cight Mt BALL PART III W itlenherger Season s Records GAME SCORES Wittenberg 14 Wittenberg 4 Wittenberg 6 Wittenberg 4 Wittenberg 4 Wittenberg 4 Wittenberg 0 Ccdarville 5 Defiance 3 Cincinnati 16 Antioch 13 Univ. of Dayton I I Ohio Wesleyan 6 Miami I Total Wittenberg 36; Opponents 35 INDIVIDUAL SCORING Player: A.B.

Wittenberg’s 1924 baseball season could not be considered a success, as only two out of seven games played were placed on the winning side of the record book. Greater interest was shown in the diamond sport by the students during the 1924 season than for several years, however, and officials of the college are hopeful that the time has returned when the national pastime can be considered as one of the major sports of the college. Assistant Coach William Trautwein was in charge of the baseball crew and was forced to build up a new team, only four veterans of the year before being back in uniform. Constant rains also put the Wittenbergers in bad. the diamond being too wet for practice day after day. Several bright spots were to be found in the Lutherans’ playing despite their excessive losses. Jack Barr, playing his first year on the team, led the team in the batting department, socking out I 1 hits in 27 trips to the plate for an average well over .400. Morris Hickman turned in some stellar performances on the mound but failed to receive credit for a single victory, his team mates on every occasion booting the ball too frequently behind him. His loss of the Miami game by the smallest possible score. I to 0. was a severe blow, the Lutherans having all the best of the advantages except in the field where they kicked the ball around on seven different occasions. “Tony” Tuccinardi proved himself the Babe” Ruth of the team by socking out two homers in the seven games. He was the only Wittenberg player to get a round trip hit. Captain Mong at shortstop was the most dependable man on the team, both in the field and at bat. Wittenberg's season opened with Cedarville and the small college was unable to hold the Cardinal and Cream, who ran wild in all departments of the game, the final score being 14 to 5. Two days later. Defiance college appeared in Spring- field coached by Ernest Miller, former assistant coach at Wittenberg. The Defiance lads were anxious to carry off a victory for their coach’s sake and the contest that resulted was the best of the year. Wittenberg finishing but one run ahead, 4 to 3. The Cincinnati Bearcats were next met and Wittenberg returned from the Ohio River City badly clawed and battered. The Cincinnatians pounded the ball hard and aided by the steady fall of rain came through on the long end of a 16 to 6 count. Tuccinardi got his first homer of the season, while Allen of Cincinnati socked the ball into the left field bleachers twice. Antioch and the University of Dayton were met one after the other and Wittenberg suffered defeat at the hands of both. 13 to 4 in the former game, and II to 4 in the latter. Ohio Wesleyan’s nine was next on the list, and after an exciting game the Lutherans returned to Springfield witht he short end of a 6 to 4 score. Errors and bad judgment on the paths lost the contest for Witten- berg and for the hard-working Hickman. Miami was the last opponent of the year and the game was thrilling through- out. Wittenberg failed to make a run. while Miami, although aided by seven Wittenberg misplays, ran over but one marker on Hickman. Poor judgment on the bases again lost a game for Wittenberg, several good chances to score being thrown to the winds, among them one which came in the sixth inning when a double and two singles were made without the Lutherans coming to within scoring distance. 1925 •« Pattc Onr Hundred Ninety-lwo PART IV WjJJenberger Season s Records MEET SCORE Wittenberg 57; Antioch 53 Event: 50 yard dash 100 yard dash 220 yard dash 440 yard dash 880 yard run Mile run 1924 INDIVIDUAL RECORDS Track.

Gerard Busch and Luther Smith, came manfully to the resuce. winning the final event and the — five markers that made the final score 57-33 in favor of Wittenberg. The Lutherans carried off first place in eight of the thirteen events and tied for top position in a ninth besides taking three seconds and four thirds. Luther Smith. Wittenberg's captain, was high-point man of the meet with ten points, scored by taking firsts in the 220 and 440-yard dashes. Milton Trubey. also of the Lutheran institution, was close on Smith’s heels with eight markers made by taking first in the broad jump and second place in the 220- yard dash, while Clough of Antioch captured a similar number of points by placing first in the discus throw and second in the shot put. Laken of Antioch was fourth with six points on two seconds. The meet was the most exciting ever staged at Wittenberg College. Witten- berg athletes started off in fine style and at the end of the first eight events the score stood 43-26 in favor of Wittenberg. Taking all three places in the mile run and first and second in the discus throw. Antioch brought the score to 44-43. one point in the rear of Wittenberg’s worried athletes. Trubey then took first in the broad jump, while Antioch s jumpers captured second and third to make the score 49-47. By a margin of two inches. Kumler of Antioch beat Ralph Miller of Witten- berg in the baseball throw, heaving the sphere 340 feet 7 inches. Antioch also took a third in the event, making the score 53-52 with only the relay race to be run off. With every fan on the field waiting with breathless anticipation, the final event got under way. Griffith, Wittenberg’s first runner, was matched against P«jf One Hundred Ninety-five 1925 - ■ ------------------------------------Wittenberg er----------------------- Dubois and finished eight yards in the rear of his man. Trubey. running second, snatched the baton from Griffith's hands, and peeled off his share of the relay as much in front of Gould as Griffith had been in the rear of his man. Busch then kept his distance in front of McWorter and Smith drew far away from Laken to bring in the points that gave Wittenberg a hard earned victory. All of the marks made in the meet were better than those chalked up in the annual intramural track and field meet. Griffith, by running the century in 10 3-5. qualified to take part in the Big Six meet, while Neff, heaving the javelin 144 feet 1-2 inch, also qualified to take part in the meet. Smith ripped off the 220 and 440 in qualification time, the former in 25 1-2 and the latter in 57 2-5. Kumler’s baseball throw of 340 feet 7 inches and Miller’s heave of two inches less than that distance put the intramural meet record of 299 feet away in the background. Mullendore. Wittenberg's diminutive high jumper, pulled the stellar feat of the meet when he tied for first in the high jump by clearing the bar at 5 feet 8 inches, just 2 1-2 inches higher than his own height.

Page One Hundred Ninety-� ! 1925 --------------------------------------- fi1¥TT TXfTT V iiiniii4AXv PART Wjl Unh ryer Intramural Athletics N I RAM URAL athletics have always been popular at Wittenberg due to the fact that many students are interested in sports but are unable to participate in Varsity games because of lack of time or because the Varsity players set a pace just a little too fast for the average student. Followers of each sport look eagerly forward to that time of year when their favorite game will be in vogue, and when that time comes the groups organize for the purpose of vieing for the school championship. Intra- mural athletics in the past have been found beneficial to the students not only becuase they give every man and woman an opportunity to keep himself in trim but because it creates a closer feeling among the groups on the campus. Members of the Dorm League at Myers Hall copped the track and field championship last spring, coming in ahead of the other groups by a comfortable margin. Luther Smith of the Alpha Tau Omega fraternity was high point man of the meet with a total of 10 points, while Milton Trubey of Myers Hall fol- lowed with 8. The fairway and green also claim a large percentage of students and naturally the gold bugs must stage a tournament to decide who is the champion clubber. Philip Stephenson led the field in the tournament staged last fall. Bowling claimed the attention of the students during the winter months, the interfraternity council having charge of the bowling leagues. Six groups participated in the race for the title with the Alpha Tau Omegas coming out on top after a one-sided race. Luther Smith, captain of the winning team, led the pin hitters with an average of more than 180 pins per game. For the first time in many years, the basketball tournament was abandoned, due to the fact that the students could not turn out for the games because of afternoon classes. Unable to get in a school tourney, two of the groups, the Sadhc Alcphs and the Alpha Tau Omegas, entered the fight for the Clark County championship. The Alpha Tau Omegas were eliminated in the first round by the team that finally won the championship, while the Sadhe Alephs also fell before the same crew in the semi-finals. Baseball has claimed little support as an intramural sport during the last few years and the only games played between groups are those staged by the fraternities on their own initiative. Athletics are also gaining in popularity among the girls, although in most cases they have taken the form of class instead of intramural contests. Basket- ball and baseball have been especially popular during the present year. Following the regular season, the girls organized their class teams to battle for the school championship and the freshmen girls, by winning two hard fought games, came out with the victory that gave them the title. Baseball was introduced this spring and became extremely popular with the co-eds who organized a five-team league under the direction of Miss Ruth Helscl. After a bitter fight. Doris Kahn’s nine won the championship and each member of the team received a pennant as a reward from Arrow and Mask, senior girls' honorary society. Hockey was also popular with the girls and during the early fall days thirty girls were divided into teams to play daily matches. 1925 F’jikc One Hunnrcd Nincty-ciicht —1WjlJenbefgef— The Tennis Champions Loren ‘‘Buddy” Coppock and William Sigmund Early last fall, tennis players got out their rackets and court regalia to stage a tennis tournament. The Beta Theta Pi fraternity, with “Buddy” Coppock and William Sigmund playing the stellar roles, copped the championship. The two players carried off the doubles championship, while Coppock captured the singles crown.

THE BASKETBALL SQUAD Academy Athletics I HLETICS were introduced at Wittenberg academy last year and the preparatory school teams showed class despite the fact that no experi- enced players were to be found around whom the coaches could build teams. The basketball squad, under the direction of Assistant Coach William Trautwein of the college, played five games, losing all the contests, although several of the scores were close, none of the losses were of the onesided variety. Paul Batdorf had charge of the football team which played but one game. I he team, composed almost entirely of inexperienced men. practiced hard and its followers were both surprised and pleased when the Wittenbergcrs held the Urbana university eleven to a 14 to 7 victory. Baseball was supported at the school only in an unofficial manner. While little interest was shown in the track and field sport, a few enthusiasts worked out along with the ’Varsity track and field athletes to catch the hang of the thing, in preparation for their college sports. � • 1925 P� ne Two Hundred Two HOOK IV ()rqciniz iHons WiWenberger S fraternities d Wj Jlenheryer Founded at Jefferson College 1852 Ohio Beta Established 1866 FRATRES IN FACULTATE President Rees Edgar Tulloss.

At times it has been hard to keep up the interest in the club, but “patience has its own reward.” Soon we hope the Wittenberg girls will have their own athletic association. When this comes into being the dreams of many of the members of the Wittenberg Girls’ Hiking Club will be realized. Officers President Secretary-Treasurer Leader of Hikes - JOSEPHINE BROWN MARGARET KANTZER MARGARET JANE SCHNEIDER Two Hundred Fifty-five 1925 Wjttenberger Pre-Medic Club At the organization banquet given immediately alter Christmas vaca- tion. Joseph Sittler was chosen president—Dorwin Colvin to assist him as vice- president. Bretney Miller was elected treasurer. Kathleen Harris secretary, and Richard Hiestand librarian. Not only is it the purpose of the club to bring notable physicians and sur- geons here to address the group, and to keep an up-to-date collection of medical catalogues, but also to aid the Freshmen pre-medics in arranging their courses to the best advantage. But the true purpose and greatest aim of this club is that every nurse be the best nurse, and every doctor the best doctor. HR Wittenberg Pre-Medic Club made its first appearance on the campus during the past year. There has long been a need for such an organization: and thru the efforts of interested students taking the pre-medic courses, and the backing of the faculty members in- structing in these courses, a group was organized. 1925 P gf Two Hundred Fifty-six W jttenhetqer The Commerce Club I HE second year of the Commerce Club started out with a bang! Our own Professor Charles M. Anderson gave us this start and put us in running order. He is always boosting for the club and his untiring enthusiasm keeps it ever progressing. I'he Commerce Club lays claim to being that organization which is entirely different from any other group on the campus. It is run on the corporation plan. At the first meeting in the year each member receives 1,000 shares of stock. Each absence throughout the year entails the loss of 100 shares of the said stock. Thus the voting power of those uninterested and of the negligent absentee is cut. The members of the club, according to the number of shares of stock they hold at the time of the election, elect the Board of Directors which body in turn elects the officers. It has been the policy of the club to have a prominent and successful business man of the city talk to the club at each meeting. Each man has brought us a worthwhile message, which has been of great help in our Business Administra- tion classes. The speakers have also given us a broader view of business and of the practical side of a business life. The Commerce Club is composed of students of the Business Administration and Ecor.om cs departments of the college. The members are looking forward to the time, which should not be far hence, when there will be a strong commerce fraternity at Wittenberg. This club is the medium through which this can be done. Professor Anderson is a member of one of the strongest commerce fra- ternities. Alpha Kappa Psi. and with his aid the chapter is working hard to get a chapter of this society.

And this phenomenal growth is due to the amazing foresight and steady, unswerving following out of an ideal that characterized Wittenberg’s presidents. They were a noble group—and still are—for their splendid spirit and great faith impregnate the atmosphere of their beloved school to this day. The first of them was Ezra Keller. D.D., a man of great energy and piety combined with administrative and educational ability. It was he who made the first plans for the founding of the institution and his sturdy personality has left its strong impress on the ideals of the school. Upon Dr. Keller's death in 1848. the College called to the presidency a man of unusual mental powers, who for a period of twenty-five years directed the affairs of the institution Dr. Samuel Sprecher. He was a person of rare ability, declared by the great philosopher McCosh to be one of the leading philosophical minds in America. Indeed he was so noted for his extraordinary brain power that several leading books on phrenology printed pictures of his head to illus- trate the perfect type of strongly philosophical brain. Under Dr. Sprecher's administration the college assumed a place of prominence among the educational institutions of Ohio, and became recognized for those standards of scholarship which have continued to be her characteristic features. J. B. Hclwig. D.D.. succeeded Dr. Sprecher as president in 1874, and guided the destinies of young Wittenberg until 1882. when his place was taken by Samuel Alfred Ort, DD.. LL.D. No great advances were made during these two administrations, all the efforts of those in charge being directed toward keeping the struggling institution alive through one of its periods of difficulty, rather than toward bringing about its progress. It is in memory of these loyal and sacrificing founders that Wittenberg celebrates her Founders' Day March 10. when the faculty and all the students pay tribute to the lasting remembrance of her early presidents. Only two years long was the reign of James M. Ruthrauff. D.D., as a Wit- tenberg president, and yet even so short an administration was not without some distinct signs of advancement in the school. In 1903 the college saw its sixth president. Charles C. Heckert. DD.. LL.D.. who was a true friend to the students. Many were the contributions made during Dr. Heckert’s term of office to the development of the institution, and indeed it was this beloved president who formulated many of the plans now being carried out by a greater Wittenberg. The college was Dr. Heckert’s life, and sadly enough, it was also his death, for his health gave way under the tremendous strain of his work as president. So four years ago Rees Edgar Tulloss. DD.. Ph. D. LL.D.. was called to succeed Dr. Heckcrt. Finely prepared by business experience, by successful work in the pastorate, and by years of graduate study at Johns Hopkins and Harvard. Dr. Tulloss was the unanimous choice of Dr. Heckcrt and Wittenberg's faculty and friends. In furthering the program for Wittenberg’s advancement. Dr. Tulloss has spent himself without stint or limit. No amount of traveling has been too irksome; no number of addresses too great; no confining hours at his desk too tedious -if only the cause of Wittenberg might be served.

STUDEBAKER. known as the Daddy of Wittenberg Teams” and loved by every athlete in the college and true sportsman in the city, died October 8. 1925. Dr. Studebaker was a true lover of sport and took special pride in the teams of his Alma Mater. For his last five years he did not miss a college athletic contest of any kind played on the local field or court. He could always be seen in the audience carrying the Cardinal and Cream colors and his little megaphone with which he urged on to victory his boys” as he termed the athletes. In like manner his great cheering spirit was behind all that Wittenberg did. No drive, no movement for a greater school, was ever complete without his aid. and had it not been for his strong enthusiasm and untiring efforts the Stadium would still be a dream. Wittenberg has Dr. Studebaker no more, but Wittenberg men and women are better for having known him. The good he did and the many works he ac- complished for the school will live forever in the memory of his friends, who were legion. 1925 • Puttc Two Hundred Sixty-five W jftenherqei P« « Two Hundred Sixty-six 1925 - --------------------------Wjtfenberger---------------- Alma Mater Day WH I ENBERG'S beautiful Alma Mater Day celebration is of very recent origin; it first began to exist in 1919, under the title of May Fete. The first of these fetes took place May 26. 1919. in the level '4, P °Pen space in front of Science Hall, and Miss Esther Homrighaus, the first Wittenberg May Queen, was enthroned upon the steps of the Hall. The program for the affair consisted of a grand march by the Queen and her attendants, and of stunts by groups on the campus, both men and women participating. The first May Fete was so delightful that the college decided to give it Commencement Week, so that the many visitors to the school at that time could also enjoy it. But Commencement usually comes in June and it being absurd to give a May Fete in any other month but May. the celebration was called an Alma Mater fete, and the May Queen came to represent Alma Mater. Then. too. Alma Mater Day carries a richer and deeper significance than a May Fete, and in its symbolic pageantry comes closer to the hearts of all Wit- tenbergers. Page Two Hundred Sixty- cven 1925 WjJIenbe;ger 1925 ••■ P� gc Two Hundred Sixty-eight —WjlJeubergef----- Wittenberg Commencement HE verdant freshness of the merry, merry month of June makes an ideal background for Commencement Week, and June days at Wittenberg become more radiantly beautiful with each passing year to the many loyal children of the old school. To the Freshman. Commencement Week means only the end of a year of scholastic tedium and the promise of a long summer of play. To the Sophomore, the first weeks of June mean a happy interlude between the final exams and going home an interlude made solemnly beautiful with the Campus Play. Alma Mater Day and Class Day. A Junior finds graduation time rather sad. for it brings the breaking of many bonds of comradeship between him and the Seniors. It brings him an added sense of age and responsibility to realize that he has but one more year in the safe and comfortable halls of learning. To a Senior. Commencement Week means a number of things—sadness, mostly; a certain eagerness for life; and the dreaming of many dreams. An Alumnus, returning to his Alma Mater for Commencement Week, finds old times again. So. after all. it is really the Alumnus to whom Commencement means the most. The Senior, who is king of the little college world in early June, is too cumbered with sundry affairs to truly enjoy the fete he takes part in. But the Old Grad, renewing the acquaintances of his student years and visiting once more his favorite campus haunts, tastes for a few days the joy of that eternal youthfulncss which is the reward of all eager dreamers. Indeed it is the spirit of youth that predominates at Commencement time. And there, too. in the rite of the ivy planting, in the glow of the bonfire where the minutes of the Senior class are burned, and in the long, winding procession of black-gowned graduates—there, too. is the Spirit of Wittenberg. 1 Jail!

Then. Myers 1 lall was the only building on the campus and only one wing of it was completed at that time. But today when college opens the student is whirled through a maze of matriculation requirements and business matters attended to in an efficient way by a thoroughly up-to-date institution. And then after registration days are over, the college is opened officially. This impressive ceremony, which was an innovation of 1924. takes place at the Sta- dium and serves properly to introduce Wittenberg ideas, activities and faculty members to the new students. After classes arc begun and school is running smoothly there goes forth a challenge from the Sophomores to the Frosh to combat with them in the annual Tug-O’-War. What Old Grad doesn't remember the glorious Tug-O’-War. when the muddy, triumphant Sophs (or was it the Frosh?) so nobly pulled the muddy, crestfallen Frosh (Sophs?) through the lake! And finally comes the most strenuous of opening activities—initiation. What ludicrous, asinine tasks are put upon the poor new students by their elder brothers! What horror-striking.

Even the fair co-ed sings initiation blues and must appear on the campus in the most ridiculous costumes. But gradually the school settles down to earnest study and finishes, and then forgets its initiations. All except the Frosh. who remembers, oh so painfully, and who plans, oh so cleverly, to wreak his vengeance on the Freshmen of next year. There was a fair maid from Decatur. Who was known as a red-hot potatur. I o the jungles she went On mission work bent. Where a dozen fat savages atur.

Students who formerly were not very well acquainted with the dictionary have been learning to use it quite efficiently. So great was the interest in this form of sport that cross-word puzzle books as well as newspapers were in great demand. Rivalry among members of the various groups as to who had the sharpest wits and the best imagination was common. In order to save all further dispute as to who was best able to hold the title. Cross- Word Puzzle Champion.” a tournament sponsored by The Springfield Daily News and Witten- berg Torch, was scheduled for January 20tb.

NATIONAL BANK Page Two Hundred Ninety.nix i Wittenberg s First Catalogue HE first catalogue of Wittenberg College was issued in 1847, for the first two academical years. 1845-7. The Faculty roll contains the following names: the Rev. Ezra Keller. D.D.. President and Professor of Mental and Moral Science: the Rev. T. Storke. A.M., Professor of Belles Lettres: the Rev. M. Diehl. A.M.. Professor of Languages: H. R. Geiger. A.B., Professor of Mathematics and Natural Sciences: John A. Ruhl, I utor: J. F. Rcinmund. Teacher of Penmanship: and Jacob Crily. Steward. The theological department had thirteen students, the same number as the two college classes. Freshman and Sophomore, then in session. Fifteen students were taking a partial course and 102 were in the preparatory department, giving a total enrollment of 143 for the two years. Highly amusing are these terms of admission which were required. Candidates for admission to the Freshman class are examined in Caesar. Virgil. Bullion s Greek Reader. Bullion's Greek and Latin Grammars. Latin Prosody. Geography. Ancient and Modern. English Grammar. Arithmetic. History of the United States, and Watts on the Mind. An accurate and thorough acquaintance with the studies required for admission is indis- pensably necessary in order to receive the full advantage of the college course. It has been found by experience that students imperfectly prepared for the classes which they enter arc embar- rassed in their future progress, and arc seldom able to repair the want of solid preparatory in- struction. In all cases satisfactory testimonials of good moral character are required. No student is matriculated until he is sixteen years of age and has been connected with the institution six weeks, hitherto he is considered merely a probationer, and can be admitted to regular membership only on satisfactory evidence of an unblemished moral character. Examinations and vacations, both of vital importance to students, were dispensed as follows at old Wittenberg: Two public examinations take place during the year, one at the close of each session. Ab- sence from these examinations is found to be very injurious to the improvement of a student, and renders him liable to be placed in a lower class. Reports respecting the behavior, diligence and scholarship of the students arc sent to the parents or guardians after each examination. The college year is divided into two sessions. The annual commencement will hereafter be on the third Wednesday in August, and the first term of the college year will commence six weeks after that time. No student is allowed to be absent from the institution without special permission, except during vacation. The absence of a student during the session, even for a few days, occasions a much greater injury to his education than is commonly supposed by parents and guardians. It is highly important that the students should return to college to attend the first recita- tion of their respective classes, since an absence of a few days at the time when a new branch of study is commenced, seldom fails to embarrass the whole course, and in some cases it is impossible to make up the loss. Just compare Wittenberg's splendid library with its new addition, to the library of 1845: The College Library contains about one thousand volumes, and is opened once every week for the accommodation of the students. The libraries belonging to the two literary societies connected with the institution contain about one thousand eight hundred volumes. The total number of volumes, therefore, in the three libraries, is about two thousand eight hundred. Back in those days, the college constituted itself a regular guardian angel for students, as can be seen from the closing paragraphs of the catalogue: Prayers arc attended in the college chapel every morning and evening, with the reading of the Scriptures, at which all the students rooming in the college building arc required to be present. Parents and guardians who send pupils to the institution are requested to inform the faculty where they shall attend worship. In the absence of such directions they will be required to wor- ship at the college church. Attention is also paid to the health, manners and morals of the students.
