Crowning the wooded hill, white columns rise majestically; no ornate arches here, hut chaste simplicity.

LED DD Wittenberg faculty, students, alumni and friends join this year in celebrating joyfully the Ninetieth Anniversary of the founding of the institution. The history of our college is a story of faith and courage, of sacrifice and struggle, of devoted loyalty, and of sound achievement. Wittenberg of today, standing upon foundations strongly built by Wise and consecrated leaders of the past, finds continued strength in her allegiance to ideals which every generation of her teachers have cherished. Proud of the thousands who honor her as Alma Mater, happy in the prestige which they have helped her to win. she lool(S forward with confidence to the future, finding both encouragement and challenge in the enlarging opportunities for service which open before her.

He received his A.B. and A.M. degrees from Wittenberg College, his B.D. from Hamma Divinity School, and his D.D. from Susquehanna. Students of both college and seminary hold him in high esteem. Hamma Divinity School Hamma Divinity School, founded 1845. is as old as Wittenberg College itself, and is an integral part of the whole institution. Dr. Ezra Keller was the first president. The first class, comprising three students, graduated in 1846. Since then. 654 students have been graduated from the school. The school is one of the recognized theological seminaries of the country, and is conducted under the auspices of the United Lutheran Church in America. The buildings of the school are situated on the college campus, and the seminary is controlled by the same board of directors as Wittenberg College. I ’age Sixty-nine THE WITTENBERGER 1935 Alma Mater On May 23. 1919. a small procession gaily wound its way from Fcrncliff 1 fall to the steps of Carnegie Science 1 {all. One of its members was to be crowned Queen of May and then to be entertained by music and dancing befitting a royal personage. 1 bis May Day celebration was planned by Dean Charles G. Shatzer so that it would be distinctive for the women of Wittenberg. Miss Esther Homrighaus, a junior, was chosen Queen of May and a member of the senior class. Miss F lorence Guvey. was selected to crown her. Because of the many rains in May the fete had to be postponed until June. It was decided that May Day was not the proper name for a fete in June, so the name was changed to Alma Mater Day. Likewise, the May Queen became known as Alma Mater, the Spirit of Wittenberg. F.ach year a girl is chosen by a committee of W. W. L. and faculty members and voted by tho women of the college as Alma Mater. During Commencement week the new Alma Mater is invested with the royal purple and gold robes of the graduating Alma Mater. 1 o do honor to the new Alma Mater the women of the college entertain her with dances or plays. Themes for Alma Mater Day as presented have been Pandora's Box. The Awakening of Knowledge. Pageant International. Pages from Greek Mythology, and the Wheel of Activities with W ittenberg as the Hub. A faculty committee including Miss Ruth Immcll. Miss Rose Cadwgan. Miss Leona Bowman. Miss I helma Dunn. Miss Ruth Helsel. and Miss Georgia MacPherson. is appointed bv the Administration to work with the Alma Mater Day Student Chairman and her committees in planning the celebration. The student committee consists of a Costume Chairman. Decoration Chairman. Dance Chairman. Flower Children C hairman. Purchasing Chairman. Program Chairman. Properties Chairman. Publicity Chairman, and Usher Chairman. 1 he position of Student Chairman is second only to the Alma Mater and much of the success of the day depends upon her efficient work. Special acknowledgment is due to Miss Georgia MacPherson for writing the play or the program notes; Miss Lydia Hays and Miss Ruth 1 lelsel for direct- ing the dances; and Mr. Anton Bjorklund and the college orchestra for providing excellent musical numbers for the celebration. Last year's Alma Mater fete was carried out as Pageant International. Colorful costumes and dances of the Indians. Irish. English. Scotch. German. Spanish. Russian, and the Orient were portrayed. The statue of liberty, accom- panied by the Colonial. Dutch and Quaker settlers of early America took their places on a small platform directly opposite the Alma Mater. Each nation, led by a flagbcarcr. danced her national dance as tribute to the Alma Mater, and then took her place near Liberty’s platform. I I’aft Sfvmlu'lu'o THE WITTENBERGER 1935 Alma Mater 1934-35 Miss Lena Jane Beilliart was selected to represent the Alma Mater of Wit- tenberg during 1934-35.

Its 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 char- acter. 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. H. Pershing and Dr. Ross Miller. Pick and Pen tap day is observed during the second week of May each year. The formal induction of the new members takes place at a banquet held on the evening of the tap day exercises. I he selections for the current year were: Willis Baughman, member of football squad: John Bcacham. freshman class president and cheer leader; William Frick.

At the present time there are 28 active chapters in the United 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 emphasized a three- fold program, namely: stimulation of sound scholarship: dissemination of scien- tific knowledge; and promotion of biological research. Xi chapter of Beta Beta Beta was organized at Wittenberg in 1927. I his chapter has gained high recognition among campus organizations and in the furthering of scientific endeavor. 1 he main project of the chapter this year was the open house on January 5th which was a presentation of the biological sci- ences. including embryology, bacteriology, botany, general zoology, and com- parative vertebrate zoology.

A worthwhile event for Spring- fielders. as well as Wittenbergers. who are interested in Germany and its cus- toms. is the “German Night” in the spring, when entertainment of an educa- tional nature is provided for the public through the medium of moving pictures or plays. Another annual practice is a banquet towards the close of the school year, when initiation services are held.

The object of the organization is the advancement of the cause of music on the campus as well as in America. A primary factor in the furthering of this purpose is a series of concerts or musical events presented annually. Members of the group par- ticipate in the presentation of modern, national, or period musical programs. In addition to these concerts, the fraternity endeavors each year to bring to the Wittenberg campus some outstanding musical event. Last year, in con- junction with Sigma Alpha Iota, woman’s national music fraternity, it spon- sored the opera. “Hansel and Gretal,” by Humpcrdink. Meetings are held bi-weekly in Music Hall, at which times active and pledge members give musical performances, and various professors present talk on subjects pertinent to music.

Oratory Wittenberg lias always been outstanding in the public speaking field and has had a remarkable record in oratory. In the past ten years there have been six first places taken by Wittenberg in the Women’s State Oratorical Contest. Last year William McClain won first place in the Ohio State Intercollegiate Oratorical Contest, and also won first place in the National Intercollegiate Oratorical Contest. Contestants for tlie oratory squad arc carefully chosen in the spring at the tryouts for the following school year. I he members ol the public speaking department are the judges. I hose students selected for the squad are then asked to do research work during the summer on any subject in which they are interested and which would provide speaking material. On returning to school in the fall the orations are written, and Prof. Brccs selects from the men's and women's squads the man and woman who have prepared the best orations. Training for oratorical contests is of the most thorough type, the orators undergoing as rigid training as that required of athletes. 1 he orations arc con- stantly revised to suit the speaker’s style and the thought, rhetoric, and euphony of it carefully considered. The maximum word limit for the men's speeches is 2000 words, and for the women it is 1800 words. Other members of the Ohio State Intercollegiate Oratory Association are: the University of Akron.

It is a six-column, four- page publication given over to general news of the college, and to the expression of the student attitude with reference to school affairs. All editorial and report- ing work, as well as the business management, is in the hands of the students. With a view to conservatism the paper presents its news in a clear, concise, accurate, objective manner. No news columns contain any editorial comment, and doubtful news is not published. By adhering to the strictest rules of jour- nalism. the Torch is operated like any other city newspaper and serves as an excellent laboratory for work in journalism. To become a reporter for the Torch a candidate must submit himself for a tryout period. I his period includes writing of any kind, covering a beat, com- plete mastery of the style sheet, copy or proof reading, and any other journal- istic duties assigned. I he editor-in-chief and the businss manager are elected by the student body for a term of one year from a list of candidates appointed by the faculty committee on journalism. Although the Torch was cut to a six-column publication this year, the use of many cuts has heightened the interest and readability of the paper. It fea- tures a student opinion column and welcomes constructive criticism. I his year the editorial policy of the Torch has included the betterment of athletics and the stand against national honorary fraternities. The Torch holds membership in the Ohio College Newspaper Association, and the National College Press Association.

FIND THE WITTENBERGER 1935 Wittenberg Women’s League I he Wittenberg Women's league was organized in 1925 by a small group of upper class students with the cooperation of Dean Ruth imrncll. The purpose of the organization is to correlate and unify the interests of women students; to stimulate a high type of school spirit; and to support the best standard of college life. Membership includes every woman student of Wittenberg College, with representatives from each class acting as an administrative body. This coucnil is elected annually by vote of the women students. I he Women s League conducts the Alma Mater election and girls' visita- tion week-end. cooperates with the Alma Mater committee in producing the Alma Mater pageant, assists the faculty committee in carrying out plans for Mother’s day. and helps introduce the freshman girls to social life at Witten- berg by giving them a garden party at the close of Freshman week. One of the major responsibilities of the Wittenberg Women's League Council is to establish and direct the policies of the women students, and it is with this purpose in mind that the work of the Council proceeds. This year the Women’s League gave an All-College Dance, the proceeds of which went toward improvements in the club room. It also cooperated with Boost W in sponsoring the first All-Campus Party in the Field House. Officers Senior Representatives President .... LENA JANE BEILHART Vice-President ....

I his year the Council sought to make the Pan-1 lellcnic formal dance at the Masonic Temple the most outstanding social event of the year, and fine music and elaborate decorations made it an impressive affair. During the first semester social groups exchanged dinner guests at intervals to create a more friendly spirit. I he second semester, the Council sponsored a bridge tournament, a girls’ visitation week-end for prospective students, and reorganized the rush rules. A presidents’ council also met monthly this year to discuss common group problems with housemothers, pledge trainers, treasurers and others. Two delegates from each sorority comprise the group which holds its monthly meetings in Ferncliff 1 lall. Delegates Alpha Delia Pi . .

Each active social fraternity on the campus is represented in the council by both a junior and a senior representative chosen from their respective classes. During the 1934-35 school year the Council has met on the second Tuesday of each month in the houses of the groups represented, hollowing the business meetings the members remained for dinner at the house at which the meeting was held. One of the primary interests of the Council this year has been the reclama- tion of old and the introduction of new activities. The so-called “sweatbox method of rushing was definitely abolished by the C ouncil, with a penalty of three weeks deferred pledging for the group found guilty. Each year the Council sponsors the interfraternity Bridge, presenting the winning group with a silver loving cup. and a dance at which all fraternity men are present. I his Council is a member of the National Interfraternity Council.

I lie fraternity has progressed slowly but steadily until at the present time it comprises 36 chapters. It continues to retain its original place as one of the outstanding national Creek-letter groups in the United States. Philanthropic work of the fraternity consists of the foundation and support of a missionary school at Carcasonne. Ky. In addition. Alpha Xi Delta main- tains a scholarship fund. The Alpha Xi Delta the quarterly journal, and the songbook. are the fraternity publications. I he fraternity badge is the golden quill on the feathers of which are the letters in burnished gold. 1 he Kilarney rose is the flower, and the double blue and gold are the fraternity colors.

The northwest wing, the original part, was the first old Wittenberg academy, and as the college expanded this became the women’s dormitory until, by the generous contributions of Mrs. Lovina Openlandcr. the modern brick building was erected. It accommodates approximately 140 women. The social functions of the dormitory consist chiefly of faculty dinners. These help greatly in acquainting students and professors. Each year during Freshman Week, the Wittenberg Women’s League entertains the freshmen at a tea given in Ferncliff court. This year there was a special tea given for Miss May. secretary of the Schurtz Foundation, who visited the campus.

A strong alumni organization has been gathered into 73 undergraduate chapters and 30 graduate chapters. “The Phi Gamma Delta” is the official publication, appearing seven times a year. Royal purple and white, and the purple clematis are the official colors and flower, respectively. Sigma chapter of Phi Gamma Delta was the fourth fraternity to be founded on Wittenberg’s campus, absorbing the Sigma society in 1884.

Julian Kdward Wood. James Benjamin Sclater. Littleton Waller Tazewell, and Robertson Howard, whose friendship at Virginia Military Institute and while serving in the Confederate army during the Civil War was consummated in the formation of the fraternity. William Alexander, a sixth founder, joined them soon afterward. Expansion of the fraternity was limited to the South and West because of strong feeling against the North until 1909. when the ban was lifted at a national convention. Since that time chapters have been chartered throughout the United States, with 78 chapters, now located at leading colleges and universities. I he membership numbers about 18.000. I he Shield and Diamond official magazine of Pi Kappa Alpha, has twice been honored with first place among interfraternity publications in recent years. It is issued five times during the school year. I wo esoteric publications arc issued at intervals to members only. Colors of the fraternity are garnet and gold: the flower is the lily of the valley. The Wittenberg chapter was founded as the local fraternity Pi Alpha Ep- silon. Feb. 22. 1922. It became Gamma Zeta chapter of Pi Kappa Alpha on Jan. 2. 1926. Among the prominent alumni of Pi Kappa Alpha arc: the late Senator and presidential candidate Oscar W. Underwood; Senators Harold S. I ollcy. New York; L. B. Rainey. Alabama; William C. Salmon.

The local chapter of Phi Mu Delta is outstanding among all fraternities in the United States, in that it is the only fraternity to sponsor a foreign scholar- ship. Mach year the group receives a German student and sends a Wittcnberger to a German university. On alternate years only members of the local chapter are eligible for this scholarship. At other times a student is chosen from the college at large. At present Arthur Neve is studying in Germany, and Ulrich Lcbsanft is at Wittenberg. l or the 1933-34 school year Mu Delta chapter was awarded the first place scholarship plaque of the national organization.

Missouri. June 9. 1924. The leaders of the meeting were Professor Winslow S. Anderson, then a member of the faculty of North Carolina State College: Otho R. McAtee. Springfield. Mis- souri: the Reverend Jerry H. Krenmyre. a Methodist minister of Agency. Iowa: and Konald F. Lybarger. an attorney of Cleveland. Ohio. As early as 1921 the idea of organizing a national fraternity 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. Upon exchanging views, these two found that they had much in common, and they therefore entered into corres- pondence with a number of locals in different colleges for the purpose of calling the Springfield meeting. I hey were fortunate at this time in finding kindred spirits in Mr. Krenmyre and Mr. Lybarger. both alumni of strong local frater- nities with programs looking toward nationalization. 'They at once pledged their support to the project. These four were chosen as the first grand council of the new fraternity, and were its real founders as they planned its constitu- tion. ritual, business systems, and insignia, and as they guided it in the forma- tive period of its existence. Since that time the organization has shown astounding growth both in size and strength. At the first session of the Inter-fratcrnitv C onference after the founding of Theta Kappa Nu. the fraternity was welcomed to junior mem- bership. Within three years it was admitted to full senior membership. Kappa Phi, Wittenberg local fraternity, was installed as Ohio Gamma chapter of 1 beta Kappa Nu on April 9. 1932.

During the first year of its existence this organization adopted a constitution, was officially recognized by the college administration, and showed its strength by successfully swinging the elections in the fall and spring of the 1933-34 school year. This year, under the leadership of James Keyser. the group was made a member of Boost Vt . succeeded in placing men in important student offices, and sponsored the first open house to be held in Myers I lall in a number of years. In March. 1933. a formal initiation was held for the active members of the group, who adopted as their emblem the pin of the once powerful Dorm League of the late twenties. I irmly established among the men's groups on the campus, this organization is looking forward to even greater success in the future.

W. “Bill” Stobbs. who was at one time a famous all-around athlete at W. J.. began his sixth year at Witten- berg. From a small squad of light, inexperienced men he fashioned a team of fighting, tough losing, football players. More men were available for basketball, and a fast-breaking, hard-driving quintet was developed. Mildred A Buck” Rider, a Wittenberg graduate, again served as assistant varsity football coach, and his fiery words of correction and his never-say-dic spirit in the face of seemingly unsurmountable obstacles will long be remem- bered by those he coached. A large group of husky gridders greeted W. F. ”Tid” Schaefer, freshman coach, who continues to guide the destiny of the yearlings who come to his alma mater. Forest A. Spike” Neuman, served as assistant coach imparting to the freshman gridders some of the knowledge which made him a bulwark in the Lutheran line for three years. Phil” Schneider, a member of Wittenberg’s undefeated 1931 team, again gave of his time and energy that the Lutherans might be better represented on the gridiron. Floyd Doc Siewert. Wittenberg, served as athletic trainer, and proved a valuable assistant to Coach Stobbs on the basketball court. Tony” Tuccinardi, besides directing intramural athletics, coached the freshman basketball team and assisted Coach Stobbs in developing the baseball nine. Dr. R. Manalich. a well known fencing champion, took over the duties of fencing coach, but had little seasoned material from which to fashion a winning team. Francis G. Peacock, who developed many champions while at the Dayton Y. M. C. A., is the latest addition to Wittenberg's coaching staff, and although only two lettermen were available for the swimming team. Peacock began building what is expected to be a strong tank team. Managers Meredith Whitaker was head baseball manager for the 1934 season, and was assisted by Norman Westfall. Whitaker also was head football manager, and was assisted by Robert Neumeier. Jacob Spillman. I high Gilmore. John Woide. and Gordon I odd. 1 he varsity basketball manager was Kenneth NX ray. while Robert Wentz managed the frosh quintet. Robert Bowsher managed the swimming team. As senior manager James Kcyser looked after the destinies of the intramural department, working under Anthony 1 uccinardi. director.

THE WITTENBERGER 1?35 1934 Wittenberg Football Squad Handicapped by a small squad and lack of experience, the Fighting Luther- ans of 1934 possessed little of the effectiveness of Wittenberg teams of the past few years. Despite the change from the Buckeye association to the Ohio confer- ence. the Lutherans found the going against smaller opponents tough. Concensus of spectator opinions during the 1934 season was that the Wittenberg team was an object lesson of the results of a ‘‘simon-pure athletic policy. The only lettermen on the squad were Ralph Alloway. Willis Baughman. Alfred Florence. Dudley Graham. Luther Hanshue. William Keller. Paul Schofer and Frank Toth. Despite the numerous losses. Wittenbergcrs still retain a feeling of optimism engendered by the manner in which the squad fought, regardless of fate.

Ray Richards, regular catcher last year, was counted on to take Swectcrman’s place but contracted pneumonia and was unable to start the season as catcher.

However. Mr. Francis Peacock. Wittenberg’s new swimming coach, who developed many state and national champions while at the Dayton Y. M. C. A., and who is an expert swimmer himself, deserves much credit for the progress he has made with Wittenberg’s swimmers in the short time he has been here. Ed. Lamb, in the diving events, was Wittenberg’s only consistent winner, but Tem- plin. a second semester transfer student from Notre Dame, has shown that he may develop into a champion in the backstroke event.

After a weak start when losses were sus- tained in meets with Notre Dame and Ohio State, the team showed unforseen possibilities and finished the season without a defeat.

Wittenberg’s new fencing instructor and one-time Olympic cham- pion. with hii very apt class which performed in foil and saber events. In December. Mr. Dimiter Spassoff gave a short explanatory talk concern- ing folk dancing and the part that nationalities and inherent love of music play in complete enjoyment of the dance. The club, as a whole, learned a Russian and a Bulgarian folk dance. The topic for discussion for January was Hobbies.’’ Many unusual ones were talked about and plans were made for the Coed Prom to be given in Feb- ruary.

Dr. Ramiro Manalich. Cuban fencer, and a new member of the faculty, in his deep interest for the sport, organized and personally conducted classes in the foil and the sabre. In spite of the fact that it was the first year of fencing for girls there was a good turnout. They were winners of one match scheduled with Dayton. It is the hope of Dr. Manalich that Wittenberg will produce the world's champion woman fencer. VOLLEYBALL Volleyball, the first sport on the intramural program for the sororities, was won by Alpha Delta Pi. after many hard-fought and exciting games. Alpha Xi Delta kept the race for the plaque undecided until the last few games and took a close second; following right on their heels, the Beta Phi girls took third position. BASKETBALL Repeating their performance of last year, the girls representing Beta Phi Alpha, captained by Frances Grubc, went undefeated this year and again won the basketball plaque. I he Alpha Xi lassies finished in second position, and there was a tie for third place between Alpha Delta Pi and Kappa Delta. Mar- garet Schlegel and Loretta Boger. members of the undefeated Beta Phi team, were two of the outstanding players in the basketball competition. FOUL SHOOTING Beta Phi Alpha, winners of the foul shooting event last year, again showed their superiority from the free-throw line. Alpha Xi Delta placed second in the group totals, and the Alpha Delta Pi girls took third place. Frances Grubc. a Beta Phi lassie, led the individual scoring by making 16 out of a possible 25 throws. SWIMMING With Janie Kuhn taking three first places, the Gamma Phis splashed out an easy victory in the inter-sorority swimming meet, scoring 170 points. Alpha Delta Pi was second with 108 points, and the girls representing Alpha Xi Delta finished third with 40 points. Marion Kiester was the outstanding swimmer for the Alpha Dclts. winning three events. 1 larrict Fuelber also starred for the Gamma Phis by swimming the 25 yard free style event in the excellent time of 14.75. BASEBALL Baseball, the next sport in inter-sorority competition, is scheduled to start in April. Beta Phi Alpha, undefeated last year, is favored to again with this sport. TENNIS Following baseball, the intramural sport program for the co-eds will be concluded with tennis which promises some interesting competition. Janie Kuhn, star Gamma Phi athlete, and Loretta Boger. a Beta Phi. are the favorites in this sport. ’oi[( One Hundred Secenhj-nine Tag Football Phi Kappa Psi fraternity won the 1934 intramural l ag Football champion- ship of Wittenberg, finishing the season with a record of four wins and no defeats. The Beta Theta Pi team was second with three wins and one setback. I hc Betas, winners of League II. lost in the playoff game to the Phi Psis. winners of League I. by a score of 6 to 0. C lose behind the Betas were the A. I . Os., with two victories and one defeat. Volleyball Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity for the third consecutive year, captured the intramural volleyball championship of the college, ending the season with a record of seven wins and one defeat. I he champions lost their only game of the year to the 1 beta Kappa Nus. I he Phi Gamma Delta and the Phi Kappa Psi fraternities were tier! for second place, with six wins and two losses each. I’aetOnt ft unit if it h'i(hlt THF WITTENBERGER '935 Basketball I'lic A. T. Os. copped the “A league basketball title closing the season with a record of eight wins and no defeats. The Dorm league finished second, win- ning six games and losing two. I he Dorm lost their first two encounters and then proceeded to win six in a row. The champions cinched the crown when they defeated the Betas 17 to 16. With less than two minutes to play, the A. T. Os. were five points behind, but buckets by Dykstra and Click gave the Cassilly Street boys a victory and the championship. Competition in the intramural “A” league was exceptionally keen this year, and several close games were played. Handball Intramural handball was won by Phi Gamma Delta. Their team was com- posed of Bill Frick. Dudley Graham. William Rider, and Charles Roberts. The A.T.O.’s with Willis Baughman. Frank Toth. Gene Sweetcrman. and Alfred Florence, were runners-up.

She will probably live happily ever after, a living proof that the Age of Romance has not yet died. Noonan Jennie, one of the more ornamental femmes, has eyebrows, a smile and a sister. She proved herself to be of championship stuff when she forgot a Beta past and became a One-Man-Woman true to the flatiron.

Phi Psi's pin-and-key man. allowed himself to be lured from the straight and narrow in his senior year by the charm of the Past and a pair of blue eyes. Now he confines his missionary activi- ties to the Y. M.. taking frequent excursions to the cemetery for local color. Barthen Mclv. the shifty-eyed Beta, first came under pub- lic scrutiny as Braddock’s understudy, and as tho' that wasn't enough, formed a political alliance with Spitty. Thru four years he has promoted, promoted, and promoted. Finally he hit upon an idea, pro- moted a popularity contest, promoted himself to first place and sat down to enjoy his fan-mail. I Ic has been sitting ever since. Browne The last of the Springfield Brownes (thank gawd) bluffed his way for four years. I le buffed the ATOs into pledging him. he bluffed the profs into thinking he knew something, bluffed the campus into believ- ing he was a Big Shot, and bluffed Sutty into the idea that he’s the lad for her. I Ic also bluffed him- self into believing that Boost W meant something. Frick Bill is the coed's dream (ask him), and they can keep right on dreaming because he's sealed (ask Isabel). lie belongs to the general class of Self- Styled Big Shots insomuch he is bombastic, ego- tistical. a politician, and on top of all that, a Phi Gam and darn good looking (ask him). Harris Jersey got where he is by being an o.k. guy and taking his time about it. I Ic succeeded in being the other half of the Most Dcvoteds and a Phi Psi without letting cither distinction ruin him. Lamb Lambic-pic. the slightly conceited and more than slightly bow-legged Fiji proxy, managed to get by four years by raising one eyebrow and keeping quiet. Some people think he's high-hat. but he isn't he's merely sleepy, and too. too sweet. Pfeiffer The Forgotten Man of Wittenberg edited the Torch for a year with no profit to himself or to the public. There’s scarcely a gal hereabouts who hasn't at some time or another worn one or t’other of his pins but as yet. he’s intact, flatiron and all. Spitler Sam started out to be a nice boy but ruined his chances by going Phi Psi and getting pally with Barthen. The result is the cynical, but harmless slouch you see. wealing paths between the Barn and the ADPi house, f Ic seems happy in his own bored way. and aside from being editor of the Witt, has no bad habits. Swingle The apple-checked editor of this volume may be seen any time any day scurring in any direction. Where or whither he is hurrying no one. including the lad himself, has been able to discover. I le has the distinction of being one of the very few unat- tached Phi Psi upperclassmen ... at least, such was his condition at this writing. Witter Russ rated Big Ten.

This campaign was based on the belief that the sorority women would be success- ful in obtaining subscriptions, and that each sorority that performed its part in proportion to the number of its members should receive due credit for its efforts. Accordingly, it was decided that each sorority which should succeed in securing a number of subscriptions equal to 1 30% of its membership would earn the privilege of selecting its most beautiful member to have her picture placed on this special page of the feature section. Three sororities. Alpha Delta Pi. Alpha Xi Delta, and Pi Omega Phi. succeeded in earning this award. The pictures of the representative women of these sororities arc found above.

James A. F arley, the Hon. Martin L. Davey, or the Hon. Huey P. Long. Dr. R. E. Tulloss. Dr. C. Gallatin Shatzcr. and Dr. Benjamin 1 larrison Pershing have instituted an extra-curricular activity, properly termed, statesmanship. Training for presidential conventions is given gratis in campus political causes, where the main issues, such who may put sergeant-at-arms of the sopho- more class after his name in the year book, arc cussed and discussed. Delegates select themselves and proxies are prohibited. When a vote is taken the door is locked, the number of ballots cast are counted, the number present is determined, and then a self-appointed committee makes the two figures equal. 1 o be properly eligible for this activity, that makes one an Honorable ”, one should belong to a fraternity, the prerequisite for membership in the Cham- ber of Commerce, the Masonic order, and the Ku Klux Klan. Our embryo campus servants begin training in fraternities by paying $10 a month for the privilege of performing menial tasks, with the threat of a paddling for the slight- est omission or commission of duty; similarly our public servants, especially if encumbered by a curvesome ' ball and chain”, are exposed in the one and only Fleming’s “Ohio Examiner.” When being pledged to a fraternity or sorority one should first ascertain whether or not that group adheres to the dominant campus political combine and has an option on naming the senior class president three years hence. Of course, there is always the haunting apparition of a third party composed of reformers. Reds, or non-fraternity cheapskates of the Dorm league to gum things up. Thus, two years ago the Mensheviks put one over on the Bolsheviks by- combining with the Tiers F.tat from Myers Hall. Forthwith, debonair Jimmy Walker Spitler, from the little brick hothouse on Ward Street, and Beta Braddock. who learned his tricks in the Hoosicr State from Gov. Boob Mc- Nutt (who decreed for himself a second term without reelcction). decided to combat this subversive trend of the FERA-remunerated proletariat from the F ed F Fousc. So at the beginning of the Year 2 of the Moscow-rccognizing f oosc- velt regime, in collusion with certain residents of the flop-house on the hill, these bourgeois brethren connived to do the Mussolini stunt of saving the time and expense of an election by naming themselves and their fraternity brothers to the salaried positions on campus publications, thus adhering to the Hamil- tonian principle of government by the well-born and the consternation of the papas of our country for turbulent democracy.” During the summer of 1934 der handsome Adolf showed these aspiring Tammanyites a little finesse in fixing “elections. after the decease of Germany’s Grand Old Man. Thereupon the Boost Ourselves group, when they came l ack to school in the fall, set up a totalitarian state, although, after passing upon their lack of qualifications, permitted a few independents to run for the sake of looks. As a self-constituted election board the 13oost Ourselves threw out void (i. e., write-in) ballots to prevent the Watch on the Nein vote. Benny the younger, faculty supervisor of the antics of the Boost Ourselves, realized that politicians must be politicians if we are to develop Stalinesque leadership. After perceiving how strenuously the politicos sweat, let us note why these public, or rather, campus servants, who sometimes play quartcrl ack or halfback on our obviously amateur pigskin team, arc fullbacks in their studies. These class offices are no sinecures, for they must pose for pictures for the daily (no. not the C. Ps. Daily Worker) paper and the Torch and the Wittenberger. attend all-college dances, and apprise their home town newspaper of their newly acquired dignity. Because of popular ignorance of Roberts’ Rules of Order, no formal class meetings are held, except when college officials become anxious about the 59.6 Roosevelt dollars which optimistic senior class officers have pledged for a rock garden.
