Like the men who built America, we too are pioneers, but there is no longer that free land of field and forest which they so bravely conquered. That frontier is gone forever, while now there exists in its place the intellectual frontier where one seeks truth and freedom. At Woodrow Wilson Junior College we have be- come travelers at this new frontier, pioneers of this new order. TO WILLIAM J. BOGAN, SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS FROM 1928, PRESIDENT OF THE CHICAGO CITY JUNIOR COLLEGES FROM THEIR INCEPTION IN 1934, WE DEDICATE OUR PIONEER ANNUAL IN AFFECTIONATE MEMORY.

WYNNE Mr. Wynne was born at Princeton, Missouri, on June 13, 1891. He died at the Wesley Memorial Hospital, in Chicago, on February 15, 1936. While at Northwestern University, where he received his Bachelor of Science degree in 1916, Mr. Wynne developed a keen and abiding interest in botany. With the exception of eighteen months, when he was serving his country as a lieutenant in the World War, the whole of his adult life was dedicated to the teaching of this siibject. After several years of service in Chi- cago high schools, Mr. Wynne became, in 1928, an instructor in Crane Junior Col- lege. His service at Woodrow Wilson Junior College began with its opening in September, 1934. Mr. Wynne was a devoted husband, a loving fathe r, and enthusiastic student, a sympathetic teacher, and a loyal friend. His students and colleagues will ever re- member his intense earnestness, great kindliness, ready helpfulness, utter sin- cerity, marked conscientiousness, and high ideals.

PIONEER STAFF Fully determined to produce a yearbook, Lewis Pokras, editor-in-chief, and the other members of the Pioneer staff, developed their plans despite many obstacles. The important problems were making the idea of an annual popular with the students and faculty and gaining subscriptions. These mat- ters were handled ably by Martin Zimring, circulation manager, and the art department, including Jean MacKenzie, Howard Nicholson, and Editor Fern Greenough, whose posters advertised the subscription campaign. The editors chose the pioneer theme because the book was to be the first annual of a new college. Plans for the yearbook were made by our editor- in-chief as the various departments got their work under way. Edward Bronsil was appointed Photography Editor, with Roseanna Nemrava, Thomas Watson, and Edwin Ratajczak as assistants. Anthony A. Stelmok, Associate Editor, had as his special task the senior pictures, while Bronsil handled the club, athletic, and feature pictures. Gertrude Kellogg was made Literary Editor, and edited all copy turned in Page Forty J. Chitwood, L. Pokras, M. Zimring, A. Stelmok, E.

President Roy Dubisch Roy Dubisch Vice-president Stanley Radvillas Margaret Lambright Secretary Helen Jane Lillroth John Sandora Treasurer Harry Langelan Advisers Emma Fleer MuUer and J. Anthony Humphreys The Student Council, formed in March, 1935, under the supervision of Mrs. Muller and Dr. Humphreys, is responsible for many of the improvements and social activities of the school. The Council committees which carry out these functions are the Civic Recognition Committee, the Election Committee, the Freshman Relations Committee, the Publicity Committee, and the Social Com- mittee. Some of the activities of the Council include the monthly socials, the infor- mation bureau for registration week, the freshman and extra-curricular assem- blies, and the founding of the honor society. The Council has cooperated with the Press on the school name campaign, and plans the publication of a college handbook. Representatives, qualified by scholarship, leadership, and citizenship, are elected to the Council each semester for a term of one year. In this way, there are always both new and experienced members. The first Council consisted of Hilmer Stark, president; Gertrude Kellogg, vice-president; Margaret Lambright, secretary; Dorothy Coffin, treasurer; Clifford Cox, Robert Klawans, Fred Messerschmidt, Florence Shea, Stephen Stepanchev, and Ruth Stone. The following were elected the second semester: Joseph Abrams, Helen Joan Burgiel, Roy Dubisch, Philip Gehrke, Fabian Gudas, Walter Poser, John Sandora, and Frank Schnabel. Elected in March, 1936, were Robert Burke, Laurence Finnan, Kenneth Jakus, John Kelley, Harry Langelan, Jane Lasner, Helen Jane Lillroth, Sidney Marco, Stanley Radvillas, Kenneth Sanden, Jacques St. Julien, Richard Wag- ner, and Irene Waski. These last two groups comprise the present Council membership. Page Forly-luo First Row — V. Gaines, B. Dubin, G. Kellogg, M. Zimring, R. Lewis, S. Gorlitz, President; J. Kap- lan, D. GunggoU, H.

HONOR SOCIETY President Sam Gorlitz Vice-president Richard Lewis Secretary Jason Kaplan Treasurer Martin Zimring The Honor Society was created by the Student Council to give recognition to students of high scholastic ability prominent in extra-curricular activities. A group of students is selected each semester from the members of the gradu- ating class on the basis of three semesters of scholarship with at least a B average and activity in the various college organizations. The requirements for eligibility ore high, and the Student Council hopes that membership in the society will become the highest honor attainable at Woodrow Wilson Junior College. Edward Bronsil, Robert Burke, Helen Drais, Ernest DuBois, Virginia Gaines, Sam Gorlitz, Fabian Gudas, Dorothy Gunggoll, Jason Kaplan, Gertrude Kel- logg, Harry Langelan, Richard Lewis, Catharine Lutherman, Lewis Pokras, Edwin Ratajczak, Clarence Siegel, Norman Stein, Harry Youngquist, and Martin Zimring have the honor of being the charter members of the society. Harry Langelan and Clarence Siegel lead the group in scholastic standing, and Gertrude Kellogg and Lewis Pokras have been most active in the extra- curricular organizations.

THE PRESS The Press is one of the most active and influential organizations of the college. As the first club to be formed, it has been highly instrumental in assisting other activities to get under v ay. Inspired by the contagious enthu- siasm of Editor Hilmer Stark, a tentative staff planned the first issue before a sponsor was appointed. Under the capable supervision of Miss Helena Gavin, sponsor, the Press began appearing regularly after October 11, 1934. In addition to its regular weekly numbers, the staff has from time to time released special issues. In May of ' 35 an eight-page paper was prepared and distributed to all public high schools to acquaint their students with the cur- ricula and the activities of the college. In September, the staff edited a paper prior to the opening of school, so that an issue with a master program awaited the students when they returned. The Press ran the campaign to change the school name and has also lent its support to the year book. It has been the policy of the Press to award pins to those staff members whose work was especially meritorious. The first pins were awarded in Feb- ruary of 1935 to Hilmer Stark, editor; Loraine Zawadski, Lewis Pokras, Peter Grodsky, Curtis Christensen, and William Kinnison, page editors. Under Lor- aine Zawadski as editor, page editors Avrum Andalman, and Jack Houghton, and staff members, Samuel Gasman, Gertraud Huchberger, and Stephen Ste- panchev were rewarded for their services last June. This January when Lewis Pokras was editor, pins were received by Leroi Page Forty-four E. Lazerson, L. Pokras, F. Crane, L. Zawodski, L. Jacover, M. Lazerson, C. Hennessey, M. Zimring. Simpson, Miriam Lazerson, Louis Jacover, and Clara Hennessey. In the current semester the final issue, an eight-page edition published May 22, carried the important announcement of the accreditment of the City Col- leges by the University of Illinois, and the news of the winning of eleven schol- arships to the University of Chicago by students of Wilson. Another story in this issue announced the award, in the judging competi- tion of the Associated Collegiate Press, of First Class Honor Rating for the Press. It is for next year ' s staff to try to win the highest honor, AU-American Honor Rating. Now that journalism has been added as a credit elective in the English Department, next year ' s staff will be members of the class. This June, pins were received by Florence Crane, Eleanor Lazerson, Marga- ret McConville, Shirley Miller, Wilma McEncroe, Robert Speer, and Romuald Gacki.

FOOTBALL The first call for candidates for the football squad was answered by a group of over sixty men. To Coach Griffin, former Notre Dame football star, was delegated the task of selecting a first team of eleven regulars from this unco- ordinated, untrained, heterogeneous group of players. Less than a week was allotted our coach to accomplish this task; but despite this limitation and the hot weather, Mr. Griffin selected the team which was to represent Woodrow Wilson Junior College in the first football game in its history. Many former high school stars represented Wilson in the opening game at Wheaton, Illinois. Chuck Anderson was selected to lead the team. A hundred and eighty pound line was aided by a backfield whose average weight approximated one hundred and sixty-five pounds. Wilson ' s first football schedule consisted of nine games: Wheaton, Lisle, Illinois State Normal, Concordia Teachers College, Morton Junior College, Wright Junior College, Morgan Park Junior College, North Park Junior College, and Bradley Polytech. Four of these games were with four-year schools. Wilson Junior College defeated all of its junior college opponents except Morton, which we tied. By this series of victories, the Southerners earned for themselves the mythical title of Northern Illinois Junior College champions. The first game of the season was with Wheaton at Wheaton. Wilson ' s first football team held the Wheaton eleven scoreless for three quarters. This was due mainly to our strong line and some superior kicking by Archbold. But the Wilsonites, weary because of lack of time for conditioning, relaxed mo- mentarily in the last quarter. This moment was enough for the Wheaton team who pushed over a touchdown, the extra point, and a safety in a few Page Sixty C. Anderson, E. Feeley, D. Purtell, W. Wilkinson, W. Swigart, T. Zaynor, J. Wallace, H. Stratton. minutes. There was no further scoring on either side, and the game ended 9-0 in favor of Wheaton. ' The second game was played against Illinois State Normal. They had a powerful team and predictions of the score went as high as 50-0 against our eleven. They didn ' t have much trouble beating us, but our team, fighting courageously, kept the score down to 29-0. But the team was not satisfied with moral victories, and so they went into the Lisle fray with the well- known blood in their eyes glint. They were determined to make Wilson ' s first touchdown in that game. This ambition was fulfilled after the first quarter had been under way for about five minutes. Bob Harper ran around right end for fifteen yards to plunge across the enemy ' s goal. By the time the game had ended, Wilson had tallied three more times, Wallace, Powell, and Wilk- inson doing the scoring. The final result was a 24-0 victory for our squad. Concordia, our next opponent, succeeded in defeating our gridders by a score of 12-7. It was a hard game to lose. After the first quarter, in which the Concordia eleven scored twice, the battle was all Wilson ' s and we were within a foot and a half of victory at one time. The only Wilson score was made by Wilkinson who raced nineteen yards thru a hole in the left side of the line for a touchdown. The Wilson gridironers played their first home game against Morton Junior College at White City. The Southern footballers completely outplayed Morton but failed to score when opportunities occurred. In the first quarter, Stephan of Wilson caught a pass and raced across the goal line. Morton scored in the second and the last quarters. In the last fifteen seconds of play, Edwards of our team caught a pass behind the goal line to tie the score at 12-12. The game with Morgan Park proved to be an easy victory, and for the first time, the Wilsonites really showed their strength. The team began to function as a unit. The result was a complete walk-away. Our eleven romped up and down the field to cross its victim ' s goal seven times before the pistol shot which indicated that the recreation was over. The touchdowns for Wilson were Ptigc Sixfy-one M u W. Swigart, D. Purtell, C. Anderson, J. Wallace, H. Stratton, T. Zaynor, W. Wilkinson, E. Feeley. made by Chatman (2), Schumacher, Stratton, Wilkinson, Wallace, and Hav- lik. The final score was 46-6. The lone Morgan Park touchdown came in the last tew seconds of the game, probably because our team was tired from making so many long runs. W.W.J.C. played its sister school, Wright, next. It was a night game played in ankle-deep mud. The final score was 2-0. The Southerners out-generalled, out-maneuvered, out-gained, and out-played the Wright eleven more than 59 minutes out of the 60 of actual playing time. Olsen of our team blocked a punt and a Wright man fell on the ball in his own end zone giving us a safety. As the other sister college, Herzl, had no team, Wilson was declared City Junior College Champions in football. North Park Junior College went down in defeat to our eleven the following v eek by a score of 13-0. The Southern eleven stampeded the North Park team. It was an easy victory, the Wilsonites gaining more than three yards to every one of the opposition ' s. The Wilson team scored twice in the game. Wilkinson carried the ball over the goal in the second quarter, and Stephen intercepted a pass and ran thirty-five yards for the second touchdown. Havlik caught a pass for the extra point. This 13-0 victory gave Woodrow Wilson Junior College its second mythical title, that of champions of the Northern Illinois Junior Colleges in football. The final game of the season was played against Bradley at Bradley in Peoria, Illinois. The Southerners fought hard against odds, but were downed by a final score of 26-6. The lone Wilson score was due to two men, Clark and Chatman. Clark received the ball on the last kick-offs and ran about ten yards. Then he handed the ball to Chatman who reeled off fifty yards to plunge over Bradley ' s goal line. The game marked the close of Woodrow Wilson Junior College ' s first football season. Letters were awarded to Feeley and Havlik, ends; Olsen, Rice, and Kirby, tackles; Captain Anderson, Schumacher, Hovland, and Prengowski, guards; Stratton, Purtell, and Plotkin, centers; Stephen, Stringer, Swigart, Wallace, Chatman, Wilkinson, and Zayner, backfield; and Sandstedt and Body, man- agers.

BASKETBALL Five of the regulars of last year ' s basketball team, which won second place in the Northern Illinois Junior College tournament at La Grange, returned for a second season. Coach Smidl also selected five newcomers to play with the team. The veterans were Captain Conwill, Frank Stormer, John Archbold, Henry Ericksen, and Jesse Jones. The newcomers selected were Wallace, Kane, Egan, Wilson, and Farrow. These men represented the best material in the school as Coach Smidl had a group of over ninety candidates from which to choose. William Conwill was selected to lead the team for the second time. The basketball team played its first game of the season with Chicago Christian College. The Southern quintet rolled up the huge score of 63-19. Leading the Wilson team in scoring was Captain Conwill who made six field goals. Our team ' s first home game was with Peoples College and was very well attended. Once again, the Wilsonites were victorious. The final score was 56-30. Captain Conwill had eleven baskets to his credit this time. The game with Morgan Park Junior College was a hard battle, but for the third consecutive time, our team won. The score was 41-32. Chicago Tech made a fourth easy victim. In this walk-away, Wilson ' s basketball squad amassed the highest score of the season. The winning streak was broken in the game with Morton when a close score of 46-39 was counted. A heartbreaking game to lose was the one against Armour Tech. In the last fifteen seconds, with Wilson ahead 24-23, an Armour player took a long shot and made it to let Armour emerge victorious by the final score of 25-24. The team travelled next to Muskegon, Michigan, for a contest with the Muskegon Junior College. Muskegon was the winner of the Michigan Junior College basketball tournament. This did not daunt our boys, though, and we won by the close score of 38-37. Frank Stormer made a free throw with Page Hixty-lhrcc the score tied at 37-37 to win the game. The first city college game was played with Herzl at their gymnasium. A desperate fight availed our quintet naught and they were de- feated 40-34. Wilson lost their third consecutive game to Optometry Col- lege. John Archbold was disabled in this game and was out for over a week. Chicago Tech gave the Southerners an opportuni- ty to reciprocate. We won 65-30, but the game with Wright was disastrous, W. W. J. C. coming out at the short end of a 50-34 score. The Wilsonites recovered enough to win five out of their last seven games. Muskegeon was defeated for the second time, the score being 27-25. The team went on to defeat Elgin Jr. College by a score of 32-26. The second contest with Optometry ended in another one-point defeat, 33-32. Elgin did not prove as difficult in their second meeting and, once again, we were successful. The score was 44-25. The game with Wright was instrumental in determining the city champions. A capacity crowd at Wilson witnessed this fray. The game ended in a tie, but we lost after two overtimes by the score of 48-43. In this game Captain Conwill sprained his ankle. The contest with Herzl was another hotly fought game. The Southerners managed to win despite the fact that two regulars were on the bench because of injuries. The defeat of Herzl at the hands of Wilson gave Wright the City Basketball Championship. In the State Tournament, after having drawn a bye in the first round, the Wilson team met and defeated Herzl for the second time. The score was 38-31. Wilson ' s opponent in the semi-finals proved to be the tough Wright team. They defeated us for the third time by the score of 52-33. We were beaten by Thornton Jr. College in the playoff for third place, 50-37. Wright lost the cham- pionship to La Grange Jr. College. When the all-state team was picked, John Archbold, Wilson star guard, was found on the list. Herzl and Wright had also placed a man each on the all-state team. The following men were awarded letters: Captain William Conwill, Frank Stormer, John Archbold, Jesse Jones, Henry Ericksen, James Wallace, Charles Kane, Raymond Egan, Lanell Wilson, William Farrow, Douglas Rice, Herbert Ball, and Albert Plotkin, manager.

BASEBALL Eight of the regulars on the team that tied for the City College baseball championship last year returned this season. These men were Wallace, Burke, Palka, Martinov, Ericksen, Bixby, Werkmeister, and Tyler. Coach Smidl worked hard and succeeded in accomplishing a great deal. The first game was played with the Concordia Teachers ' College on April 24. Until the week before the game, the team had been unable to practice out of doors because of bad weather. Coach Smidl looked them over during the indoor practice sessions, however, and the results of the first game served to prove the value of our coach ' s judgment. The Wilson nine trounced Concordia Teachers at River Forest, Illinois, by the score of 10-3. The newcomers who gained berths on the squad were Gradowski, second baseman, and Heinz, left-fielder. The complete line-up for the Wilsonians in the opening game against Con- cordia was as follows: Wallace, pitcher; Youngbrandt, catcher; Palka, first base; Gradowski, second base; Bixby, third base; Martinov, shortstop; Heinz, left field; Burke, center field and pitcher; and Tyler and Newport, right field. Newport replaced Tyler when the latter injured a muscle. The best batting was done by Martinov, who contributed four hits to the Wilson cause, Burke and Heinz. The last two hit homeruns. At time of publication scores were not available. Below is the complete schedule of games played. Team Place Concordia Teachers River Forest Wright There Peoples Hamilton Park . . .

Griffin, had many veterans from last year ' s team which won the State championship. As few Junior Colleges compete in indoor track, the opposition consisted entirely of four year schools. The indoor team was made up of T. Zayner, hurdler, high-jumper; Swigart, hurdler, high-jumper, sprinter, and broad-jumper; Maebane, mile and two mile runner; Chatman, sprinter and high-jumper; Mason, 880 and 440 yard runner; Anderson, sprinter, hurdler, and shot-putter; Kane, broad-jumper, pole- vaulter, and shot-putter; Ewing, sprinter, shot-putter, and 440 yard runner; Feeley, 440 yard runner; Dominique, mile and 880 yard runner; Havlik, high jumper; Archbold, sprinter; Bastion, shot-putter. Armour Institute was the first indoor track opponent. The meet, held at the University of Chicago indoor track field, was a close one all the way thru with the lead see-sawing back and forth as the various events were run-off. Finally Armour went into the lead, the score standing 50-49 in their favor by the time the last event, the mile relay, was to be held. The Southern relay team, consisting of Swigart, Anderson, Ewing, and Dominique, put up a valiant struggle, but the Armour team was too fast, Armour winning the event and the meet as well. Loyola University was defeated by our thin-clads by the close score of 44-41. Wilson captured seven out of the ten first places possible in the meet. In the second meet with Armour, the Wilsonites fared but slightly better than in the first encounter. This time the team went into the last event, the mile relay again, winning 50-49, but our relay team lost the event again by an eye-lash and also the meet by the score of 54-50. The first outdoor meet was with Wheaton College. W.W.J.C. won that by the close score of 66-65. Other teams which we were scheduled to meet were Wright, Morton, Armour, and La Grange. The team was also entered in the Slate tournament to be held at La Grange and the Elmhurst Relays at Elm- hurst. Pti}ic Siyty-six T?

SWIMMING Wilson ' s swimming team this season was one of which we should be proiid. Twelve meets were scheduled, two with each of the following schools: Loyola University, Central YMCA College, Armour Institute, George Williams College, Milwaukee State Teachers ' College, and Wright Junior College. All of these, with the exception of Wright, are four-year colleges, and as such had older and more experienced men on their teams. The Southern mermen, however, took four meets against the four-year schools. The team was composed of five veterans, Ewing, Andalman, Van Alstyne, Ignowski, and O ' Connell, and eight new-comers, Edgcomb, Pietrzak, Wolfe, Rasche, Zaksas, B. Zayner, Shervis, and Radvillas. Willard Ewing, Wilson ' s diving and free-style star, was lost to the team when he graduated in February. The first meet was with Loyola University. The Wilson swimmers lost by one point after a hard struggle. The score was 38-37. One month later we lost to the same team by the same score. Wilson ' s swimming team next traveled to Milwaukee to engage in a quadrangular meet at the Milwaukee State Teachers ' College, at which Milwaukee was the winner. Our team emerged victorious in their first home meet against the Central YMCA College, who bowed to the less experienced but more powerful Wilson mermen by a score of 44-31. An identical score was tabulated a week later in the return meet, once again with Wilson as the victor. George Williams won two hotly contested meets from Wilson Junior College, but the Southern swimmers easily defeated Armour Tech in their first meet. Wright, our sister college, proved to be a hard opponent, and defeated Wilson at both meets. The Wilsonites closed their season by beating Armour again by a score of 38-36. The high scorers on the team were Joe Andalman, Bud Van Alstyne, and Bill Edgcomb. This trio amassed over 160 points for Wilson. Andalman, Edg- comb, Ignowski, O ' Connell, Pietrzak, Radvillas, Ruthrauff, manager, Shervis, Van Alstyne, Wolfe, Zaksas, and B. Zayner were awarded letters.

TENNIS The 1936 tennis schedule included Thornton, Morgan Park, Wright, and Wheaton. The team that represented Wilson was composed of Kane, number one. Taxis, Waddell, and Ogren. In the first meet, the Wilsonites defeated Morgan Park by a score of 3-2. Kane won his singles and doubles matches, and Waddell and Ogren won their doubles match to break a 2-2 tie and win the meet. GOLF The golf team had scheduled two meets by the first of May, one with Armour and one with Wright. The team consisted of Edward Prengowski, the only veteran returning from last year ' s squad, and two newcomers, John Kelley and Fred Ficrte. Frank Stormer, last year ' s manager and coach of the team, was unable to play this semester. Page Sixly-eighl First Row — Van Alstyne, Conwill, Coach Griffin, Coach Smidl, Andalman. Martinov.

Tournaments were held in all those sports for which there were demands. Much credit for the success of these tourneys was due to the managers of the individual sports. The rest of the credit can be given to the whole-hearted cooperation of the student body and the active support of Wilson ' s two coaches, Charles Smidl and James J. Griffin. The purpose of these intramural sports was to give all of the students an opportunity to compete, regardless of whether or not they excelled in the particular sport in which they wished to participate. Members of the varsity teams were barred from the sports in which they earned their letters in order to insure everyone an even chance in the intramurals. Basketball under Stormer, boxing under Prengowski, wrestling under T. Zayner, swimming under Ewing, table-tennis under Plotkin, tennis under Detleffs, and badminton under Andalman were run off before May.

INTRAMURAL SPORTS BOXING Edward Prengowski, football man and former C.Y.O. fighter, was in charge of boxing. Through his efforts the March tournament was a success. The 112 pound class was uncontested, Hubbard winning. The 118 pound and 126 pound divisions were close fights with McDade and Steele winning. Stringer of the 135 pound class had an easy victory, as did Jordan, 160 pound, and Bastion, heavyweight. Powell, 147 pound, and Kane, 175, fought hard battles. WRESTLING Ted Zayner, track star, performed a very commendable job as manager of the wrestling tournament. Not satisfied with managing, he also won in his weight division. Adamski, 125 pound, won by one fall as did Ahern, 135 pound, and Olsen, heavyweight. Olsen ' s match was the fastest for he downed his man in 48 seconds. Those who won by a time limit were Pieler, 147 pound, and Groth, 175 pound. Piil f St ' fcnfy First Row — Koss, Gitlelson, Jacknik. Adamski, D ' Amalo, Andalman, manager: Contes.

BADMINTON The second largest group of intramural contestants was found in the bad- minton tourney. Joseph Andalman, swimming star, capably managed this. Edward Feeley and William Dorgan were soon the only ones left of the original field. Dorgan put up a heated battle but finally succumbed by a score of 15-11 to the superior playing of Feeley. TABLE TENNIS The largest group of entrants in the intramurals signed up for the table tennis tournament. This tournament was under the management of Al Plotkin, center on the football team and manager of the basketball team. The huge field soon narrowed down until William Dorgan and James Hall were left fighting for the championship. Dorgan finally won after five almost even games. Page Sei enty-one Cole, Turner, McCray, McNeil, Capt. Haynes, Mgr. Griffin. Klawans, Kraynik, Christensen. BASKETBALL One of the most popular of the Intra-mural sports was basketball. Under the direction of Frank Stormer, stellar basketball player, a very successful elimi- nation tourney was held. The Crusaders, consisting of Cole, Turner, McCray, McNeil, and Capt. Haynes, battled their way through the many team entries to win the intramural basketball crown. A. Griffin managed the team which was awarded medals. CHEERLEADERS When cheerleaders for Wilson ' s athletic teams were called for, many students applied. Robert Christensen, Robert Klawans, and Josephine Kraynik were selected as the cheerleaders. Their work at the football games, basket- ball games, and other athletic meets, showed that they were well chosen. At the completion of the season, they were all awarded varsity letters.

MONOGRAM CLUB James Wallace President Robert Burke Robert Burke Vice-president Walter Palka Henry Ericksen Secretary-treasurer Edward Feeley Charles Van Alstyne Sergeant James Schumacher The lettermen of the Woodrow Wilson Junior College, under the sponsorship of James J. Griffin, established the Monogram Club in September, 1935. The membership in the organization is limited to men who have won a major varsity letter. The club was organized to promote better spirit in the college, stimulate athletic activities, and sponsor intra-mural games and tournaments in all sports. The club intends to hold an annual banquet for the men students and all the C men, the first banquet having been held on April 22, 1936. It also plans to conduct a semi-annual freshman week culminating in an assembly. Through these combined activities, they hope to set Woodrow Wilson Junior College on a par with the four-year colleges, not only in athletics, but in other activities as well. The Monogram Club sponsored several pep assemblies for the school. These assemblies were very effective in bringing out the student body to the athletic contests and in aiding the teams to do their best. Page Seventy- three WOMEN ' S ATHLETICS ■ . ' ' .

WOMEN ' S ATHLETIC COUNCIL The Women ' s Athletic Council came into being during the winter of 1935. It is composed of three elected officers and a group of managers chosen for interest and ability in the activities they represent. The present officers are Jessie Scheithe, president; Mary Farley, vice-president; and Virginia Gray, secretary. The managers are Edv ina Meyers, basketball and baseball; June Kresge, soccer and volley ball; Zdenka Pojeta, swimming; Jean MacKenzie, golf; Theresa Zimmerman, ping-pong; Grace Gregory, archery; Muriel John- son, bowling; Helen Drais, hiking; and Margaret Rago, tennis. The Council has tried to develop a broad program of games to increase interest in women ' s sports. As a result the schedule of events introduced by this group has shown a wide variety. With the aid of Miss Gertrude Byrne, the sponsor, the W.A.C. has enjoyed a highly successful year. The activities promoted thus far include intra-mural and inter-collegiate meets, tournaments, and playdays. School teams have been formed in all of the major, and in several of the minor sports. Members of these teams have competed with other colleges. The Women ' s Athletic Council has been very active for the past year and a half. Besides cooperating with the Physical education teachers in many ways, the members have sponsored several social events. The two most out- standing of these were the Splash Party held at Tower Towns in the Illinois Women ' s Athletic Club, to which every girl in the school was invited, and the Water Festival. The students will long remember the beautiful spectacle of the Symphony in Blue water ballet. The Inter-College Council, composed of members of the three city-college athletic councils, meets four times a year. Its purpose is to coordinate the activities of the colleges, to plan the yearly program, and to encourage friendship among the girls of Wright, Herzl, and Wilson.

We have helped to establish tradition and have successfully tried out a new theory of education. We have made lasting friendships and gained many pleasant memories. We can remember so well — In September, 1934 17th — that first day when we were a confused crowd of noisy, puzzled freshies; how Miss Taheny quieted us by playing football songs. 18th, 19th, and 20th were spent in helpless struggles with, and endless revisions of programs; and we wondered secretly what on earth surveys were. 26th — The eternal urge to organize was felt and a cry was sent out for clubs. Miss Taheny started things off with tryouts for a glee club. 27th — The college numbered 1476 students; 685 men and 545 women. OCTOBER 1st — FERA appropriation was made for the college and many students started spending their checks as they waited to see if they were successful in getting a position. 5th — The puzzle of what to call ourselves began to bother us. We were called South Side J.C., Parker J.C., Normal J.C. We were even known as the South Side Branch of the Chicago City Junior Colleges. 15th — The first issue of the Press came out and its staff members boasted of being the first active organization. 18th — The first dance was held with 500 in attendance. Why was the stag line so huge? 23rd — Tony Cieslewicz, who was continually agitating for a tennis team, finally got what he wanted because Coach Smidl couldn ' t stand being haunted any more. 24th — The school became more and more sport-minded; Coach Smidl called a meeting of basketball aspirants and was swamped with applicants. 30th — The social planned for the 30th was called off because all public schools were given a half holiday to revisit a favorite site at the fair for the last time. NOVEMBER 2nd — Two new teachers arrived to reinforce the English department, Mrs. Edna Schworzman and Mr. R. R. Smith. 5th — The initial FERA checks arrived and a long line waited for Dr. Hum- phreys to appear. 19th — The sports department held a vote to decide the school colors. The school intelligentsia suggested, among other things, black and blue, peaches and cream, gold and silver, and tutti-frutti. Scarlet and white were finally chosen as the official colors. 24th — The cross country team eked out a fie with Morton J. C. because of the stellar performances of Bill Henrich and Clarence Carter. 26th — The ballroom dancing club complained because girls were so scarce at their last meeting that they had a robber ' s dance with only boys taking part! Holidays and Turkey Paxf Einbty-fit ' i DECEMBER 3rd — Miss Mary Anderson, director of the Women ' s Bureau of the U. S. Department of Labor, dehvered an address on the status of women in labor — and Avrum Andalman distinguished himself by standing up and asking what would happen to the institution of marriage if women were permitted too much leeway in the business world. Was he worried? 4th— Our basketball team won its first game, beating Chicago Christian College 40 to 22.

Brilliant playing and splendid team work carried the gome into two overtimes — and in the last minute Wright made the winning two points. 20th — We defeated Herzl and Sleepy Egan was the hero; every time he sank a basket, he sat on the floor, and he made quite a few baskets.
