EX LIBRIS COPYRIGHT Editor DONALD WENTZ Business Manager L. LONG THE WITTENBERGER PUBLISHED BY THE JUNIOR CLASS WITTENBERG COLLEGE, SPRINGFIELD, OHIO FOREWORD Till ninetieth graduating class of Wittenberg Col- lege salutes a number of things, among theni Reci- tation Hall, now beginning its fifty-first year as an academic building. In 1884, fifty years ago. Recitation Ilall was built the second building on the campus. Changes have been rapid and frequent since then. Only ten years before, the first 'woman was admitted to study in this institution- Co-education is an integral part of the college now, women serving as instructors, administrators, and students. Athletics at Wittenberg have produced a national reputation for this Lutheran college. Xot to be forgotten is this year's golf team, which bids fair to take the state intercollegiate championship. Xor must be forgotten the unbeaten football teams, the great basketball teams that have flourished since the cornerstone of Recitation Ilall was laid. Academically, numerically, physically, Wittenberg College has grown in the last half-century. There seems to be a leaning toward expansion in all lines. Still a liberal arts college, Wittenberg's expansion is in the right line. The tower on top of Recitation leans -who has said that it hasn't! But its leaning in the right direction. Don't forget that. DEDICATION To Professor Benjamin Franklin Prince, Ph. I)., LL.D., whose familiar face we see no more on the Wittenberg campus after September, 1933, this volume is affection- ately dedicated. As a teacher he was thorough and punctual; as a scholar, careful and diligent; as an administrator, unobtrusive but conscientious. Public-spirited citizen, appreciated friend, and sincere Christian, the junior class is happy to honor one whose nc me for seventy-three years appeared among the faculty in the catalogue of Wittenberg College.

Pact Twrntynine THE WITTEN BERGER, ’34 .Arrow and Mask A KROW AND MASK, a local honorary organization for senior women, was founded ai Wittenberg College in October, 1922. At the annual tap service held in May, junior women are tapped for membership during their senior year. Qualifications for membership are high scholarship, leader- ship. character, and service. As an incentive for high scholarship Arrow and Mask presents a-silver cup which each year becomes the possession of the freshman girl having the highest scholarship quotient. An outstanding service to the college is the annual Rounders' Day pageant, written and presented by Arrow and Mask in honor of Dr. Ezra Keller and those who have contributed to the growth and progress of Wittenberg. Another project undertaken this year for the first time was a tea given in honor of fresh- man women to acquaint them w ith the standards and ideals of Arrow and Mask. Eor several years Arrow and Mask has been desirous of membership in Mortar Board, national women’s honorary, and with this object in view has maintained the standards of that organization. It is hoped that in the near future Mortar Board may be added to the list of Wittenberg honorary organizations. OFFICERS President.........................Ruth BliLl.

For a while it consisted of tlie members of Boost “ ’’ but has for the past several years continued as a separate organization. Members are chosen for ability in campus activities, leadership and scholar- ship. Outgoing seniors elect men from the junior class to membership for the next year. These new members in turn elect two or three members of their class to membership the next year. The group acts as a discussion body on major campus problems. This year Blue Key sponsored and promoted the first all-college dinner which was held in the Health and Physical Education building before Christmas vacation. Since its inception the group has backed many projects including the Tigers’ club, and has discussed student government and had charge of the visitation week-end for several years.

I is purpose is to provide for Sophomore men an incentive for attaining higher scholarship, for showing greater interest in collegiate activities, for exercising leadership along worthy lines, and for the development of character. Eligibility to this honorary organization consequently depends upon the four points: scholarship, activities, leadership, and character. New members are selected by the unanimous consent of the active members each year. Mem- bership is automatically terminated with the completion of the Junior year. There are two honorary members of Pick and Pen who retain their mem- bership as long as they are actively affiliated with the institution. They are Dean B. U. Pershing and Dr. Ross Miller. Pick and Pen tap day is observed in the college chapel during the second week of May each year. The formal induction of tlie new members takes place at a banquet held on the evening of the tap day exercises. The selections for the current year were: W illiam Albin, business manager of the Torch; Howard Alsdorf. varsity debate, band, choir, V. M. C.

I Iamma Divinity School was founded under the name of the W ittenberg Seminary, but its name was changed to honor generous benefactors. Wittenberg and Mamma have benefited both in educational and cultural advantages from their close association. An adequate library is main- tained and the close association of the two faculties have been beneficial to both institutions. The sole aim of Mamma school is to train faithful, competent ministers who will effectively uphold and proclaim the evangelical faith. It is explicitly Lutheran in its teachings but welcomes students of other faiths to help prepare them for their life work. Receptions in the homes of the faculty and group dinners make up the greater part of the social life. Social functions are also held in the dormitory and in the refectory. Kach graduating class usually presents the school with a fine gift. The total alumni membership is near 700. Besides these alumni, main- persons have pursued partial courses in the school. Kvery year since 1846 there has been a graduating class with but two exceptions. Mamma School has a regular faculty and a few lecture professors from Wit- tenberg.

But the cloud of the silver lining that hangs over righting Lutheran athletic supremacy may be readmission into the Ohio C onference, where we will meet schools of our own caliber in athletics, and where we will have a chance to finish seasons with 750 percent, or higher. It’s all very nice to play the Buckeye loop, but what’s the use of a suicide schedule when we don’t get even good gate receipts? Let’s play in our own backyard; there’s fun and fame a plenty right there. A 33-0 decision over Detroit City College in the first game of the 1933 calendar was the occasion for much rejoicing. “T. V.” got the appelation of Page Sixty-nine T1IK WITTKN BKRGRR. ’34 crepehangcr, Inn he was right as usual when the rest of the schedule came along, and breezed right past us with but one exception. “Tim Brewster starred in this eye-opener, with line-bucks and three touchdowns. Alloway made one and a point after; Wagner, sophomore sub for Claiiss. also crossed the last Detroit stripe, and Scotty Florence converted twice with placements. The Buckeye debut was inconspicuous; the team had an outside chance to take Marshall, but ended on the wrong end of a 19-0 score. Brewster’s work on the defense was sparkling, as was that of Keller. Hawkins, and Stanforth, all sub linemen. Zontini scored twice and (ioyette once for Marshall. Kincaid’s placement was the only completed try for the extra point. “The Big Red of Denison, notoriously weak and previously twice defeated, were beaten 6-0 for Wittenberg’s only other 1933 victory. The Lutherans gained over four times as much territory through the air as did Denison, and had a 13 to S advantage in first downs. Wright, returning to the team after absence due to injuries, acquitted himself well with defensive work, driving runs and the lone touchdow n. Alloway, Brewster, Hawkins and Stanforth also stood out in their performances. Page Seventy THK WTm-'.XHKkCKK, ’34 Homecoming Day dawned bright and clear, the optimists admitting that Wittenberg had a chance to beat Ohio Wesleyan and the pessimists that it was a good day for the game. Wittenberg scored first and went into the second half down only 13-7. But superior manpower on the part of the Battling Bishops added 28 points in the third and fourth cantos. The final score Wesleyan 41. Wittenberg 7. Wright scored the Lutherans’ six-pointer, and he and Kurth, the latter acting-captain, carried the brunt of the attack and defense. Miami was the third of the Buckeye opponents to whip Wittenberg, and won by the largest score of the season, 44-7. Alloway scored all of the Cardinal and Cream’s points, and Wagner, acting-captain Neuman. Hawkins, and Signorella did most of the defensive work, such as it was. The same old story, but with a different school: Ohio C. 39. Wittenberg 0, with Ohio scoring at least a touchdown in every period. Wright, starring w hen- ever he donned the Red Devil uniform, was finally forced to quit because of recurrent injuries; his loss was keenly felt by the already too small Lutheran squad. Baughman and Neuman did the best defensive work for Wittenberg. Page Seventy-one THE WITTEN BERGER, ’34 W'liat the locals like to class as the best game of the year was against Cin- cinnati. when a highly-touted Bearcat eleven had to come from behind in the last quarter to win 14-6. And they had been conceded a six-touchdown victory at that. Toth was the raging lion, scoring for Wittenberg in the third, and kicking out of danger repeatedly. Range. Keller. Schofer and Clauss. in fact, every player who got into the game, did what was expected of them and more. Schwarburg and Xoliing garnered the Cincinnati touchdowns and Ruck com- pleted two placements for the conversions. After the Cincinnati game, dopesters thought that the Cardinal and Cream might have a chance to add a third win, but Dayton, aided by a one-hundred- forty-live pound back by the name of ilannegan had too much on the ball. Allowav saved the Lutherans from utter disgrace, scoring on a pass from Florence. The score: Dayton 31. Wittenberg 6.

Wittenberg, co-holder with Ohio I', of the 19,32-33 crown, fell to fourth place with an even .500; Ohio was one place lower. The season started with the traditional Christmas week road trip, on which the righting Lutherans were tripped four out of four. Games were lost in In- diana to Evansville 50-25; to Depauw 26-24; to Indiana State Teachers 39-22; and to Karlham 53-31. First of the eight victories during the season came as an overtime win from the traveling Tigers of Princeton I ., entertained in the Fieldhousc for the first home game of the season. The score at the end of the regulation period was 30-all, and the final, 37-33. The Big Red of Denison was humbled next; the final score 32-23. 'Traveling to Oxford for a game with Miami’s Redskins was a faux pas on the part of the Lutherans; they lost the first Buckeye encounter, and Miami won its first loop game in two years, 33-19. The first home loss since the 1931-32 season was to Marshall, 37-24. In the next game, with C incinnati I ., the Bearcats were on like few teams have ever been, and the Lutherans dropped the fray, 56-36. Grandle, Cincy, made a new conference record with 11 field goals and added two from the charity stripe for a total of 24 points. 1-irst of the five league games to come Wittenberg’s way was the game here with Ohio I .. ending 32-27. Wesleyan was visited next and succumbed to, the Bishops on the long end of a 54-28 score. Miami here was a case of sweet revenge, going home 18 points behind. The final score: 47-29. Dayton fell next. 43-21. Starting on the second half of the schedule, the team partially redeemed itself for past misdemeanors by taking the second of the series with Ohio I ., winning 37-32 at Athens. Marshall at Huntington, W. Ya., was also subdued, losing 34-27. It was the first conference defeat of the season for the Thundering Herd and gave Wittenberg a chance to finish at or near the top. But it was not to be so. Cincinnati. after being held dow n 21-12 in the first half, steadily diminished the Lutheran lead and won 38-34. That game will probably be remembered more than any other of the season, because of the suspense involved. Tp to the last minute it seemed that Wittenberg would come through, but, alas and alack. C incinnati, incidentally, was the only team that beat the Lutherans twice during the season. Denison, at Granville, was superior to the Denison that played here and won 35-29. The same was true of Dayton, at Dayton, where the Fliers won handily by a 35-27 score. Pagc Scventy-seecn THK WTITKXBKR( KR, U One of the two victories standing out to make the season somewhat of a slaves' was the home-floor victory over Wesleyan, the last home game of the season. The crowd was estimated at 2,000 persons, the largest of the year. Accuracy from the foul line enabled the Cardinal and Cream to take the Battling Bishops, ancient and honorable rivals, by a seven-point lead. The final score was 33-26. For lloorwork and defense, this game was variously decided as the best of the season. St. Xavier, of Cincinnati, suffering only a loss to Notre Dame in nine starts was too good for the Lutherans in the last appearance of the 1933-34 edition of the team. They won 47-38, always increasing the lead. Klwood Pitzer must be considered the outstanding player of the season. After recovering from a pre-season leg injury, he started things going. He was instrumental in the win over Princeton and also in the following seven. Fred Buescher. converted from understudy to Roy James, giant pivot-man. to guard, was a bear on the defense.” Dale Miller, playing his first season of varsity basketball, was the surprise of the season. Although it was his senior year, he went out for football, basketball and baseball for the first time, and succeeded in winning two letters. His third, in baseball, seems to be on the way. Light players received varsity awards. Two, Pitzerand James, received their third ; Buescher. Charlesworth and Hamilton, their second: and Donahue. Miller and Florence, their first. Florence and Donahue will be the only lettermen available next year. Frank Jackson was varsity manager.

But good matches were arranged nevertheless, with both students and townspeople taking an interest never before shown in these parts. Matches were lost to Case. Fenn and Michigan State, and were won from Ohio Northern, Fenn. and Case. Neuman, smashing saberman. Shinowara, foil and epee star: Rot el, foilman; and Howard, epee wielder; were awarded minor letters for services.

From sta- tistics procured from the director of intramurals. Anthony Tuccinardi, it was found that 80 of the total number of boys enrolled in college participate in intramural activities. Activities include the following: speedball. indoor baseball, volleyball, basketball, foul shooting, swimming, handball, softball and track. The groups entering competition this year include Beta Theta Pi. Alpha Tail Omega. Phi Mu Delta. Delta Sigma Phi. American Commons Club. Phi Kappa Psi. Theta Kappa Xu, Dormitory. Seminary. Phi Gamma Delta and Pi Kappa Alpha. Kvery year the All-Sports trophy is awarded to the group that finishes highest in the standing after all the sports have been completed. According to all indications. Pi Kappa Alpha will win the softball, while the winner of the handsome All-Sports trophy may be either the group representing the Dorm or the group representing Phi Gamma Delta. I'he first sport on the calendar was speedball. There were two leagues; the Dorm won one. while the Phi Gams captured the other. In the play-off. the Phi Gams completely subdued their opponents, to capture the championship. The next sport to test ability of the participants was indoor baseball. After many exciting contests played in each league it was found that the Dorm and the Phi Gams were to meet in the play-off. The resulting contest produced many thrilling plays but as before, the Phi Gams won the championship. Upper picture K. Lamb lleusch K. Lamb B.

Prom all indications the next sport, basketball, was the most popular of all the intramurals. The teams of each group were divided into two leagues, A and B. Alter the smoke of the ensuing battles had passed away, it was found neces- sary to have a play-off in each league. In league A the Phi (iams defeated their arch rivals, the Dorm, in a hotly contested battle, while the Delta Sigs bested Alpha Tau Omega for league B honors. Glen Stevenson won the individual foul shooting championship. Represent- ing the Dorm, he tossed in 56 out of a possible 70. Right on his heels was James Keyser, also of the Dorm, who made good 54 throws. The Dorm won the team foul shooting, closely followed by the A. T. Os. and the Phi (iams. Swimming, the next item of competition for the college lads, was completely dominated by two groups, the A. T. Os. and the Phi Psis. These two groups battled furiously and not until the final event had been completed did the Phi Psis (the winners) breathe easily. Starting as an obscure sport, handball has risen to a place of prominence on the long list of intramural activities. This year, the winning group. Phi Gamma Delta, was not sure of victory until their last opponent, the Dorm, had been defeated. Beautiful plaques are given to the group whose team wins first in a sport. So far the Phi (iams have won four, and the Dorm. Phi Psis. Pi Kaps, and Delta Sigs one each. Upper picture Kurtli llackenberg B. Powell E.

In the first game of the season, against Denison, he pitched himself into the collegiate diamond hall of fame with a no-hit, 110-run game. His team-mates, in the meantime, pushed across the plate six of what it takes to win ball games. James struck out 19 of the men who faced him. Miami was beaten 5-4; James fanned 15 Redskins in sweet revenge for de- feats in football and basketball suffered at their hands. Cincinnati look advantage of a tired W ittenberg team to win a free-hitting contest by a 10-6 score. Otterbein was shut out in the next encounter 6-5, but only after tightening up in the ninth. James added 15 more strike-outs to his credit. One for the books occurred in the lust game with Dayton. The Rivers arrived here for a game with Wittenberg and the Righting Lutherans traveled to Dayton to play there. Returning to Zimmerman field for a late afternoon game was bad. because the Rivers found James and Carey, who relieved the veteran, for 21 hits, and won 18-6. Ohio Wesleyan visited here next and won by a six-run margin, 10-4. Deni- son, at Granville, was humbled 12-6, but at Huntington, W.

THE WITTEN BERGER. U DERI NO ihe year ihe Women's Athletic Association held basketball and volleyball tournaments for the class teams, as well as hockey, baseball, tennis, ping-pong, and swimming. The Sophomores won the basketball tournament by winning their last and deciding game from the Junior-Senior team, who placed second. Yollevbal! was strongly contested with the first place finally going to the Junior-Senior team. In this the Sophomores were runners-up. Baseball, tennis, ping-pong and swimming contest results are not complete. Approximately 65 girls started in the W. A. A. hockey tournament last September. Several practice games were played with Antioch, and with other colleges at Ohio State’s Play Day. One game at Columbus with State ended in a 2-2 tie. At Antioch their upperclassmen beat the Wittenberg Junior-Senior team 7-0; the Antioch Freshmen also won 4-2. In the interclass games the Sophomores took first place with the Junior- Senior team as runners-up. On the Junior-Senior team were: Myra Balir. Maisie Banning.

Page Ninely-one ORGANIZATIONS TI1K WITTKNBKRC.KR, ’34 Pail'- IIel3 eimc C o uiici] rpilis year members of Pan-Hellenic Council made a special effort to pro- mote good will between members of different sororities. A plan of rotation of dinner guests was followed whereby some girls from each group ate at another house every two weeks. The Wittenberg Pan-Hellenic Council was founded in 1921. Its purpose is to regulate rules for the pledging of new members and to secure cooperation of all social groups with the college and with each other. Besides formulating the rush rules for the year, this year’s council spon- sored a formal dance at the country club, a bridge tournament, and helped with girls’ visitation week-end. In conjunction with the council, a president’s council was formed this year. It is a resumption of such an organization formed several years ago, but subsequently abandoned. Its members are the presidents of the women’s social groups, who met once each month to discuss problems met by the groups and methods of solving them. 'Fhe Pan-Hellenic Council itself is composed of two delegates from each sorority, and meets in Perncliff Hall once a month.

The original part, the north-west wing, was first the old Wittenberg Academy. W ith the expansion of the college, this section became the women's dormitory until a generous contribution by Mrs. Lovina Openlander provided a larger brick building. The present modern structure was designed to accommodate approximately 140 women. The social functions of Ferndiff this year have been many and varied. With the All-College dinner replacing our annual Christmas dinner, an unusual party was held in the assembly room after all had come in from the dinner. IVrahps the most successful and enjoyable affairs have been the faculty dinners, especially the one given in April in honor of Dr. Mary Markley. These dinners gave faculty and students an opportunity to become better acquainted and proved to be the outstanding events of the year. Ferncliff Hall was fortunate this year in having two distinguished visitors, Miss Florence Jackson, vocational consultant of Wellesley College, and Dr. Mary Markley, educational secretary of the United Lutheran Church.

It was founded as the Adelphian Society on May 15, 1851, at Wesleyan Female College, Macon, Georgia, by five women. Eugenia 'Pucker (Fitzgerald) was the first president, and there were 16 charter members. The purpose of its founding was for bettering one another and themselves morally, mentally, and socially.” In 1904 several of the women of Alpha chapter applied for a charter, which was granted to Alpha Delta Phi sorority. This name was retained until 1913, when the third letter was changed, and it became known as Alpha Delta Pi I he first chapters were formed in the south, but at present the chapter roll is evenly distributed throughout the I’nited States. The local sorority. Gamma Beta Gamma, was organized at Wittenberg College by seven women on March 4. 1913. These women realized the benefits to be derived from such an organization, in view of the increasing number of coeds in attendance at Wittenberg. They organized with the intention of be- coming affiliated with a national. A petition to Alpha Delta Pi was presented in person by Carolyn Treffiinger. and installation took place on Nov. 20, 1913, at the home of Mrs. L. S. Kevser, one of the patronesses of the sorority.

In 1904 Alpha Xi Delta chartered as its Zeta chapter the second local sorority on the campus, Sigma Pi, founded the year before by seven coeds. Alpha Xi Delta is an outstanding Greek letter group in the I'nited States, and is now comprised of 53 active chapters- a total membership of approxi- mately 8.000. The government is through a convention held biennially, and a national chapter made up of the national council comprising the national officers and representatives from each chapter. The badge is a golden quill on the feathers of which are the letters in burnished gold. The flower is the pink rose. The colors are light and dark blue and gold. The foundation and support of a missionary school at Carcasonne, Kentucky, is a national altruistic project of the fraternity. A scholarship fund is also main- tained by Alpha Xi Delta. Fraternity publications are the quarterly journal, the Alpha Xi Delta.” and the song book. Two active members of the Zeta chapter won the scholarships to France and Germany for graduate study. An alumnae member of the class of 1930 Margaret Sillier has received a fellowship at the Library of Congress, an honor which annually comes to the most outstanding student of history in the I'nited States.

It was founded on May 8, 1909, with the ideal of broad service and the desire to elevate, refine, and broaden the outlook of all women coining into contact with the organization. The founders were Ida Louise Rinn, Hattie Paul, Kdith Harriman Scott. Lisa Ludeke. Anna Nelson, and Lydia Taylor. In 1923 Beta Phi Alpha became a member of the National Pan-Hellenic Council, the first to be admitted after a period of nineteen years. Prominent among the alumnae is Harriet Tuft, secretary of the National Pan-Hellenic Council. With its national program policy Beta Phi Alpha has led the way among women's groups in the movement for weekly programs in fraternity chapters. To encourage high scholarship a bronze plaque designed by Roger Noble Burn- ham is given each year to those chapters ranking in the upper 20% of the women’s groups on the campus. The fraternity magazine is called the “Aldcbaran. “Scientia, Virtus, Amicitia is the open motto; the llower is the yellow tea rose; and the fraternity colors arc green and gold. Omega chapter of Beta Phi Alpha was instituted on the W ittenberg campus in 1931. The group was formerly known as Chi Delta Omega, founded in 1923 with the motto: “To create a more friendly spirit, to help promote college activities, to establish higher scholarship, and to develop loyalty to our Alma Mater.” Page One Hundred One THK WITTKXBKRGKR, ’34 CLi Omega Tau Gamma Chapter Bahr Camjxr Dean R.

Three major financial projects are being carried out by Kappa Delta. In 1917 the Student Loan Fund was established for the purpose of offering financial assistance to worthy Kappa Deltas in order to enable them to complete their college work. The total expenditure amounts to more than $50,000. Two years later the Chapter House fund was established, whereby chapters ready to build or buy houses may secure a lower rate of interest on the money than they could secure elsewhere. At present the time Kappa Delta owns 30 houses. Finally, in the state of its birth Kappa Delta carries on its philanthropical work, main- taining four beds as well as the dental room in the Crippled Children's Hospital at Richmond. Ya.

The fraternity has at present a total of sixteen active chapters. The work of the fraternity is carried on during the year by an executive committee, which is made up of alumni and active presidents and other office holders of each chapter. An annual meeting of this committee is held each year. The local group. Mu Delta chapter, was chartered in 1930. Before that time the fraternity was known as Pi Theta Phi. which was an outgrowth of the Dorm League. The local chapter of Phi Mu Delta is unique in being the first social frater- nity in the Tinted States to sponsor a foreign exchange scholarship. Each year the group receives a C.erman student from a C.erman university, and every year a Wittenberg student is sent to (Germany through this scholarship.

Robertson Howard, and William Alex- ander; whose friendship while serving in the Confederate army during the C ivil War resulted in the formation of the fraternity. Due to the unsettled conditions in the South following the war, the frater- nity had a difficult struggle for existence, but the first convention held in 1889 at Hampden-Sydney College resulted in the reorganization of Pi Kappa Alpha and the beginning of an era of prosperity and expansion. Strong feeling in the South against the North caused the expanison to be limited to the southern and western states until 1909, when the ban was lifted. Since that date chapters have been chartered throughout the Lnited States, until now 80 chapters arc located at leading colleges and universities. The official publication of Pi Kappa Alpha is the “Shield and Diamond” which is issued five times during the school year. Two secret publications, “The Dagger and Key” and “The Bulletin” are published at intervals by the Supreme Council, and are distributed to members only. The government of the fraternity is vested in a Supreme Council, while legislative power rests in the national conventions held biennially. The colors are garnet and gold, and the flower is the lily of the valley. The Wittenberg chapter was founded as the local fraternity, Pi Alpha Epsilon on Feb. 22. 1922. It became Gamma Zeta chapter of ihe Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity on Jan. 2. 1926. Prominent alumni of Pi Kappa Alpha include: Lnited States senators Oscar Lnderwood, Alabama; Harold S. Tolley.

Missouri. June 9, 1924. The leaders of this meeting were: Winslow S. Anderson, who was then serving as Professor of Chemistry at Rollins College; Otho R. McAtee, of Spring- field. Missouri; the Reverend Jerry II. Krenmyre, a Methodist minister of Agency. Iowa; and Donald I '. Lybarger, an attorney of Cleveland. Ohio. As early as 1921 the idea of organizing a national fraternity to combine a number of existing locals had occurred to Mr. Anderson. During the early part of 1924. through the aid of several prominent fraternity leaders, he got in touch with Mr. McAtee. an alumnus of an old local fraternity at Drury College. I’pon exchanging views, these two found that they had much in common, and they therefore entered into correspondence with a number of locals in different colleges for the purpose of calling the Springfield meeting. They were fortunate at ilii time in finding kindred spirits in Mr. Krenmyre and Mr. Lybarger, both alumni of strong local fraternities, with programs looking toward nationalization, who at once lent their support to the project. These four were chosen as the first grand council of the new fraternity, and were its real founders, having planned its constitution, ritual, business systems, and insignia, and having guided it in the formative period of its existence. Since that lime the organization has shown astounding growth, both in size and strength. At the first session of the Interfraternity Conference following the founding of Theta Kappa Xu, the fraternity was welcomed to junior mem- bership. Within three years it was admitted to full senior membership in the conference.

In former years a cup was rotated to winners until one group had won it three times. Phis year a new plan was inaugurated in that the cup won is to be kept and not passed to the next year's victors. Kacli contestant entered sang two songs, according to the rulings, and in the order designated by drawings which were made immediately preceding the sing.

This concluded the combined activities of the social groups on the campus. With approximately 250 couples attending, the dance was one that will long be remembered. Billy Grant ham, the orchestra originally contracted, was unable to fulfill the engagement, but with Walt Sears furnishing the necessary rhythm the dance proceeded in an unforgetable manner. John Ritter, assisted by William Albin, comprised the social committee and were commended for their fine work.

The honoraries are found in all the fields of study on the campus, so that all deserving students may be honored by being admitted into their membership. Membership into an honorary usually requires a scholarship quotient higher than the average of the school, outstanding work in the field in which the hon- orary is concerned, high moral standards, and certain definite leadership qualities.

At the present time there are 28 active chapters in the Cnited States and three in foreign countries. By reserving its membership for those who attain a high scholastic record in the study of biology, it seeks to encourage further academic accomplishment in this field of learning. Beta Beta Beta emphasizes a three-fold program. Namely: stimulation of sound scholarship; dissemination of Scientific knowledge; and promotion of biological research. Xi chapter of Beta Beta Beta was organized at Wittenberg in 1927. This chapter has gained high recognition among the campus organizations and in the furthering of scientific endeavor. The chapter is continuing as its project for the year the classification of the various trees on the campus. Xi chapter now consists of 19 members, nine of the group being new initiates this year.

At each meeting a paper dealing with a designated classical subject is presented. A plan is being used whereby every third year the same series of subjects are designated. This year papers were written on the epic and lyric poetry of Greece and Rome. The papers next year will deal with drama and oratory. The third years’ papers will be devoted to art and philosophy. Plans for an annual essay contest were completed this year. Rules for the contest were as followed: Themes must be on a classical subject taken from Latin or ('.reek, and must contain no less than 1500 words. A cup was presented to Miss Dorothy Lyle whose essay, Martial and his Epigrams, was the best, in the opinions of the judges. The presentation of the cup was one of the features of the Honor Day program. The annual banquet was given at the Marigold Tea room on May 10, before which time initiation was held for new members.

Bach Page One Hundred Thirty-six THH WITTKNBICRGKR, ’34 rXlAl' KAPPA ALPHA, national honorary forensic fraternity, was founded ÂŁ at Butler College, in 1908. In 26 years it lias chartered 85 chapters. Orig- inally it was a men’s group, but now it admits anyone who has fulfilled the requirements of the local chapter. At Wittenberg, after one year of freshman debate, a student becomes automatically pledged to the fraternity providing he is promoted to the varsity debating squad. Then, after participation in one varsity intercollegiate debate he is eligible for initiation. The purpose of the group is to promote debate and oratory and to interest students in participating in these activities. Wittenberg’s chapter this year sponsored the annual oratorical contest in conjunction with Theta Alpha Phi. and the annual declamation and reading contest for all Ohio high schools, in addition to entertaining visiting debaters and orators. This spring six new members were initiated. They were feted at a ban- quet afterward. OFFICERS President........... Sec ret a ry- 7 'rea s it rer Faculty Adviser. . Miss Rose Cadwgan Mr. Paul R.

T() i lie great popularity of the business administration courses at Wittenberg, it was deemed fitting that the institution should have an honorary business fraternity. Thirteen students and four faculty members gathered on April 13, 1 ‘ 32. and accordingly founded Tau Pi Phi. a local honor- ary business fraternity having for its purpose the discussion of business problems and trends and the promotion of business ethics. Charter members of the organization were: l)r. Daniel T. Krauss, Mr. Virgil II. Dassell. Mr. Kli A. Jensen, Mr. John L. Zimmerman. Jr., Betty Braun, Julia Knck. W'ilda Cox. Louise Scheerer, John Plank. Lawrence McAfee. Robert Baer. Roland Stahl. John Wilson. Lawrence Kobeli. Frank Long, Richard Mayer, and Richard Camper. As a part of its program each year Pan Pi Phi sponsors a series of lectures given by prominent business men concerning business conditions and problems. Membership in the group is a distinct recognition due to the high require- ments for admission. Tau Pi Phi was the outgrowth of the local C ommerce Club, which was originated fora similar purpose in 1930 by Dr. Krauss. Morris J. Lehman, and C.ene Fast. Although Tau Pi Phi is merely a local at the present time, it is planned that some day it shall spread to other campuses and thus become a national organization.

Alvin Linn, the Chemistry Club of Wittenberg College was organized. Just one month later, on April 9. 1927. it was formally installed as Alpha Iota chapter of Theta Chi Delta, national honorary chemistry fraternity. Theta Chi Delta, which was founded in 1921 at Carroll College, Waukesha, Wisconsin, now has 14 active chapters. Its purpose is to build character, en- courage high scholarship, and further interest in science, especially in chemistry. Each year it holds a national convention and issues a quarterly publication, The Crucible,” which reports progress of the chapters, besides publishing articles of scientific interest. Alpha lota chapter holds two meetings each month, one secret and the other in the form of a lecture or moving picture which is open to the public to further interest in chemistry on the campus. Each year the fraternity sponsors an all-Ohio high school chemistry contest, the winners of which are presented with tuition credits at Wittenberg. The fraternity also awards each year a set of ten volumes on chemistry to the student in the freshman class who writes the best essay on any type of chemistry.

Each fall the Student Chest hoard, with the help of members of the various groups, conducts a campaign among the students chiefly for pledges to the fund. Then the board sponsors the collection of these funds, which are apportioned accoiding to budgets prepared hv the benefiting organizations, and submitted to the Student Chest committee for approval. Each spring the officers of the Student Chest are elected by the students and with the aid of Mr. A. E. Jensen and faculty advisers formulate the policy of solicitation and collection for the following year. This year the budget was reduced lower than ever before in the history of the Student ( best, which was organized in 1()24. Pledges were solicited before the Christmas holidays and collections began shortly after these holidays were over. A new method of collection was introduced when members of the board took payments of pledges during registration for the second semester.

The orchestra appeared there at the Masonic Temple in connection with the presentation of Oscar Wilde’s play The Importance of Being Earnest. by the Wittenberg Players. Both the orchestra and the play cast were guests there of Conservancy Lodge, and of the Wittenberg Alumni Association of Dayton. Appearing in convocation, giving a home concert on March 1, playing for both the boys' and the girls' visitation programs on April 14 and April 28 re- spectivelv, and finally performing at the Alma Mater pageant and at the bacca- laureate service, were part of the organization’s program for the year.

It plays at the opening convocation and furnishes the major part of the music at Com- mencement exercises in June. At convocations and other assemblies it enter- tains the students with concert music, and it inspires pep and enthusiasm at loot ball and basketball games. An out-of-town appearance was made when the band accompanied the Fighting Lutheran’’ gridders on their invasion of Miami University. Four representatives of the band were chosen to compose the Alma Mater quartet which rendered several numbers at the annual Alma Mater fete in June. The quartet included: Max Powers and Gerald Fisher, trombones; and Howard Wessling and Willard Borchers. trumpets. Under the leadership of Professor Anton Bjorklund the band has become one of the most enthusiastic and active organizations on the Wittenberg campus. OFFICERS Director. President.

An endeavor is made to present the news of the college in a clear, concise and accurate manner, and to record direct opinion in the best interests of the institution. Strictest rules of journalism are adhered to, and it serves as a laboratory for the students interested in journalism. Complete control of the newspaper is in the hands of the students. Border, ing on conservatism the paper avoids anything with the semblance of sensation- alism, attempting to give an unbiased account of all matters and never resorting to purely derogatory criticism. No news columns contain any editorial comment and doubtful news is not published. In all ways possible the Porch is run like a typical city newspaper. The editor-in-chief and the business manager are elected by the student body for a one-year term from a list of candidates approved by the faculty committee on journalism. Other members of the staff arc appointed by the staff heads. New members are admitted to the staff only after a tryout period which is held each fall, which gives them systematic training in 'Porch practice. Membership is held by the paper in the Ohio College Newspaper Association and the National College Press Association. The editorial staff has published the student directory since 1932. Dr. E. O.

Material in the Witt is copyrighted but its contents are open for re-publication by all recognized college comics. The contents of the magazine are written largely by a small staff of student contributors. As usual, in ever attempting to keep the publication abreast of modern trends in collegiate publications, there was a drastic change in the format of the Witt again this year. Among the new features was the reduction in the subscription price, the attractive covers, the introduction of style articles and notes, the series of scenic campus views and pictures of campus girls, and a number of columns by student writers. There was the usual number of humorous articles, cartoons, and other features. The Witt again sponsored the annual Popularity contest balloting.

'Flic question read: “Resolved : Thai the present tendency of the American woman to emerge from the home into public life is to be deplored. Coached by Dr. G. Vernon Kelley, the girls’ squad took part in intercollegi- ate debates with Ohio University and Fenn College at Cleveland. Inhibition debates were given at North Hampton High School, Madison Township High School, Oak wood High School, and the Young People’s Society of the Church of God, held at the Springfield Y. M. C.

Phis contest is 60 years old and some of the winners are such famous men as Senator Albert Beveridge and Senator Robert LaLollcttc. Mr. McClain is the first Wittenberger to ever attain the coveted position of both State and National winner. The subject of the winning oration was “Our Scroll of Destiny.” Lor the second consecutive year a Wittenberg representative placed first in the State Intercollegiate Interpretative Reading contest. Miss Dorothy Morris placed first by interpreting scenes from “So This Is London.” Other colleges participating were Ohio Wesleyan, Kent State, Heidelberg. Ouerbein, Capitol, and Ohio Cniversity. Lite contest was held at Otterbein. Miss Rosemary Sundberg represented Wittenberg in the State Women's Oratorical contest held at Wooster. The representation from Ohio Cniversity won first place. Miss Sundberg did not place in the contest. Rimer Browne was chosen to appear in the State Reace contest held at Capitol Cniversity. His oration was The Suicide of the Nation. Wittenberg has the most outstanding public speaking record in the state, having won more first places an placed more times than any other school com- peting with her. It is truly a record of which every Wittenberger can be proud. Sundberg MrClain Morris Browne Page One Hundred Sixty-six THK W ITTKXBERGER, ’34 Dram atics Al)I) TO llie public speaking department’s list of champion orators, inter- pretative readers, and debate teams the successful production of plays during the year. The Wittenberg players are advanced students in dramatics. They must serve a period of apprenticeship during which they study costuming, makeup, staging, scenery, and lighting. All these are studied in the dramatics class which produces a one-act play each week in the Little Theater in Blair Mall which is properly equipped with lights, scenery, and properties. Near the end of the semester a group of these one-act plays are given for public entertainment. The major production for the first semester was Ibsen’s ('«hosts. The cast included Jeane Browne. Robert Suitzbacli. Kugene Hoak. Bert Shimp. and Christine Chakeres. Prof. Paul R. Brees had charge of the production; George Izenour, staging and directing; and the business manager was Roy Murphy. As part of the promotion program the public speaking department produced Oscar Wilde’s The Importance of Being Karnest. Since it was produced eleven times the cast had a taste of a real trouper's life. The cast included the following: R. Harold Thomas, Kdward Crocker. Dorothy Cowden, Dorothy Morris, Amine Cosby, Bert Shimp, Winifred Pitcher.William Kidd, and Trygve Rosholm. Those in charge of the play were: Prof. Paul R.

'34 I lie Bigsliots S l-.l l LST of all the sweet young things was Queenie Gehring, prexy at the A. I). Pi domicile. Tis rumored that once she stated that she knew she was not beautiful, but thought she was awfully cute. She is seldom wrong - according to her. She spent the first three years of her college career telling people she got where she was through sheer ability and perseverance on the job. Of course il she would tell you what the job was, much could be explained. Never- theless. she is a higshot in every sense of the word. She is egotistical, proud of herself, a personality babe, and important looking. Besides having all of the characteristics of a Royal Canadian Mountie, she seems to be able to sell herself to the girls, which, my dear children, is no mean accomplishment. She is securely roped by a Phi Psi, or has him roped. You figure it out. Ability to get a fervent quaver to the simple little word “hello won Jeane Browne, the Alpha Xi rosebud, her greatest fame. Beside being a veritable Barrymore, she has assumed leadership in nearly everything that crossed her path in her four years quest of higher education. Attention to little things in life pays, so Jeane condescends to speak to each and every one whom she meets. And she sounds like she means it though some have never decided whether she really did. It is admitted that she has arrived, so her system must be oke. Phi Cam stuff. Spewing and sputtering in her weekly tamings about sundry things that happened in divers places on the campus has put the name of Flo Paschold before the tired eyes of Wittenberg students. Besides being the campus column- ist. she also holds the questionable honor of nailing two different fraternity pins in the short space of three years. Just to show you how gocxl she is, she went out of circulation for a year to give the rest of the girls a chance and then made a comeback that showed her true championship caliber. Some people think she is moon struck, but that isn't so. She's a Chi ). and wears a Phi Gam pin now. The blonde Venus of Camilla Phi Beta, Augustine, smiled her way into the higshot list. She is the reason that there is no beauty section in the Witten- berger this year. Last year she was voted the most beautiful woman on the campus, and since the editor had neglected to include her among the campus belles, the ensuing guffaws prompted the discontinuance of that feature. She is free, whi'e and beautiful. An independent lass of pleasing personality is Ruth Bell, the president of Y. Y. That alone would be hard to live down, but considering the handicap she has done right well by herself. She, among other things, reigns as Alma Mater, and “is the symbol of Wittenberg. The latter accomplishment makes her a tin goddess. She has a sweet smile for all that, and never fails to use it when she sees you. She gets along without the encumbrance of a male. Page One Hundred Seventy THE WTTTENBERGER, '34 File Bigsbofs COMING from a one-night stand jerkwater in northern Indiana is not an auspicious start nor a good background fora campus bigshot. Vet when it comes to bigshots, the inimitable Braddock is a 21 gun salute ask him. He took over the Torch after three years of personal build-up and he declares that he did a good job. Let him have his own way. lie got messed up in politics and got his lingers burned after a time, proving that all that goes up must come down. He thinks he is a hard guy. acts cynical, thought to be a sucker lor the frails, and likes to conduct campus crusades to prevent others from doing the things he owes for his success. W hat we are trying to do is tell you that Braddock is the fellow that got the most votes in the annual popularity farce, which en- titles him among other things to being first panned on this sheet. The Betas have to claim him. though he lives at the A. I). l i mansion. Trailing a scant nine votes behind the big noise was Phi Gamma Delta’s all-Ohio basketball ace. the one and only Pitzer. People say that he grandstanded his way into a position of prominence as a hardwooder of wide repute, but we rather think that he didn't do that—at least much. As president of Boost Wit- tenberg association his domineering and high-handed manner won for him the title (used covertly) of King Pitzer. He is also A. I). Pi stuff. Keeling that major league baseball could not get along without him. he left school under con- tract with the Reds. Owing his success to prompt, meticulous attendance at classes and appoint- ments with the Dean (about the last joke in the W itt) ITitsche is another Beta who got someplace in the world. How. nobody knows, for he broke all the rules. During his senior year he did his best to maintain his reputation for ex- ercising freshmen women, though with increasing difficulty. He never got any- place on time—if he got there. He is a free man too slow to catch. Ritter, the pride and joy of the Chi () lasses, is Phi Kappa Psi's contribution to the whirligig of campus politics. His friendship with his bitter rival in the political arena has always been one of the campus mysteries. One thing about him, he could take it. Tor three years he never saw his party win an office, but that didn’t bother him—he just waited until his senior year and masterminded them through to a glorious triumph. So there! Brewster. Apollo-like varsity halfback, paradox of the tea hounds of Ward Street, crashed into the bigshot list by just being a good fellow. No girl has hooked him definitely, though a blonde Gamma Phi bothers him at times. His greatest attribute is being able to go unshaven for three days and with his beard!
