Thirty-two students of the college dressed in black and white costumes made a picturesque appearance in a gray cyclorama background.

Margaret Fry, guest artist sang two numbers in her own pleasing style, as well as one song with the choir accompanying her.

Oxford Delegate Emphasizes Peace

M. R. Zigler, Elgin Illinois, Speaks on World Peace In Chapel

Mr. M. R. Zigler of Elgin. Illinois, guest speaker of the Regional Conference, spoke in chapel Thursday morning, on the text “Blessed are the Peace Makers".

Mr. Zigler, representing the Brethren church, was one of the 800 delegates from practically every denom-ition in the world, attending the World Peace Conference in Oxford, England, the last year. The peace makers of the world are those people represented by the Oxford conference delegates. The representatives came with humility in view of current war activities. These delegates and the people they represent are afraid of the world not of God.

‘America", stated Mr. Zigler, "is the nucleus to save the world. America has disappointed the world by proposing peace courts and then selling war ammunition. It is not too late", concluded Mr. Zigler, “for the Christian churches of America to become a world unit of brother-hood in the interests of world peace."

Marcel Hubert and Miss Dill-ing Capture Crowd with Interpretations.

Only the highest sort of praise was heard Tuesday night following the Dilling-Hubert recital at the City Auditorium. These Columbia artists were presented under the auspices of the McPherson Cooperative Concert Association, and were greeted by a large and appreciative audience.

Miss Dilling, world foremost woman harpist, charmed her listeners with her brilliant technique and her pleasant personality. During the presentation of her selections, she gave a short but highly interesting history of the harp, stating its ori-in began with the hunter’s bow, that the instrument gained resonance and importance with the installation of the front pillar, became the instrument of royalty, lost Its prominence because of its descendant, the piano, and is now coming back into its due share of limelight. Miss Dilling played a varied program, and her skill and interpretation held her audience enthralled.

Marcel Hubert also captured the hearts of the audience with his perfection of technique. His repertoire was varied and pleasing, and his rare old cello, with its sweet tone, added greatly to the evening's entertainment.

Both artists were gracious with encores. Credit should also be given to Collins Smith, accompanist for Hubert, for making the recital a finished thing.

The Steinway used was loaned through the courtesy of Mrs. Edwin Anderson.

Lawd, I Cannot Stay Away

Dr. J. J. Yoder, treasurer of McPherson college for 27 years and connected with the school for the last 30 years, has resigned his position and the board of trustees has accepted his resignation. The resignation will become effective June 1.

During Dr. Yoder’s administration the assets of the college have Increased from $160,000 to more than $900,000. He has been one of the lenders of college finances for many years and has had much to do in materially increasing the permanent endowment of the school.

To succeed Dr. Yoder as treasurer, the trustees elected Prof J. H. Fries, who has been In the business office of the school for the last 22 years. Professor Fries will continue as bus-iness manager. The elevation is a promotion to Professor Fries and marks an advancement in his college administration work.

Unusual Service Sunday Afternoon

Darrell Peter, Pianist And Gordon Young, Organist,

To Present Vespers

An unusual opportunity to hear a high class music program will be afforded McPherson College students and other music lovers of the community when Darrell Peter, pianist, and Gordon Young, Organist, play a vesper concert 8unday afternoon, February 27 at four-thirty. The program will be given at the Congregational church and there will be no admission charge.

These young men, students at Southwestern college, are artists of rare ability and have appeared throughout this section of the state with great success. Mr. Peter has appeared four times as soloist with the Southwestern Symphony orchestra. and has given a total of seven full length recitals—an unusual number for a student performer. Mr. Young bus appeared as soloist with the Southwestern A Cappella Choir and has played in most of the larger communities of Kansas and Oklahoma.

Philosophy and Humor Delight Audiences

With words flowing like water from a fountain. Dr. Clovis G. Chap-pell, Southern Methodist leader, held the Regional Conference audiences spellbound, with his wit, philosophy, and fluency.

Monday morning, during the chapel hour, Dr. Chappell spoke on the "Put Yourself In His Place." Dr. Chappell stated that an Important asset in the fulfillment of Jesus’s teachings is the ability of putting oneself in the place of others. One can understand the problems of the physical handicapped, morally wrong, those younger and those older, if he puts himself in the place of others.

"Maging the Worthless Worthful" was the subject of Dr. Chappell’s Monday night address. He declared that every person has a hungry heart.

God has made us for himself and we do not find rest until we find rest in Him,” he admonished. He continued, "Know the secret by which one can make the worthless worthful. The fine art of living is the taking of something worthless and making it worthful. He illustrated by explaining that Christ saw Peter, not as he was, but saw him as the man ho might be,” Peter the Rock."

Wednesday's chapel period was In charge of Dr. Chappell again who urged "Don’t Worry." He advised that people should not worry about things which they cannot do anything about and correct the thing they can help. "One must protect the bearings of life by keeping out the sand and grit of worry," He declared. “Watch the sunrise instead of the mud holes; take your problems to God and he will give peace and strength,” was his concluding ad-vice.

“Fellowship With God"

"Fellowship with God" was explained by the Oklahoma City pastor during the hour before noon.

Wednesday morning. At which time he named seven privileges received by a close friendship with God. "With true friendship, frankness creeps into our prayers," he asserted. The second privelege received is the privelege of being understood by God, who always knows our physical and soul ailments. “Trust in God in understanding silence when life holds no thrill, for God, like all true friends, understands silence,” be urged.

After the sixth annual concert of the A Cappella Choir, the members of the organization and some of their friends, and a few former members celebrated their success at a banquet at the Hawley Root Garden.

The theme of the banquet was "Overtones," and Miss Lehman presided as the "metronome," The upbeat of the program was given by Miss Lehman, who introduced the maestro, Mr. Fisher. Charles Nettle-ton didn’t like the idea of singing his "Tintinnabulation" on a full stomach, but his silvery tones rolled out as usual. As there are vibrations in music, so must every organization have its president. Harold Mohler assured the singers that their work for the year is not over, and then presented Mr. Fisher a gift from the Choir in appreciation of his work. Perhaps a little tired of music, the Choir enjoyed the Off-beat, a read-

ing given by Josephine Shirar. Aileen Wine in her Reverberations made old Choir members feel kinda weepy when she brought back to memory good times on trips and the sad memory of that last Dedication on Commencement day. This little poem, by Miss Wine herself, seemed to express what so many Choir members feel.

Ah, the memories still ring.

And from a thing so fine,

That all the joys and blessings cling. To music that was sublime.

And every time the theme song.

In its rapture deep and true, Brought us just a little closer,

To the melodies we knew.

And in the chorus humming.

The harmonies so sweet.

Makes us all wish we were strumming.

In that choir that is complete.

The years may come but still the fire,

Of fond memories linger on,

Yes. that A Capella Choir,

From which we now are gone.

Eugene Crabb told everyone to yc-lax—his Grace-notes would be light and soothing to the weary. And on his horn he played three old popular tunes. Ah! what music!- The After-beat. by Miss Lehman, ended the program, except for the Coda—the "Dedication" sung by the Choir.

The decorations were simple but carried out the color scheme, black and white. White sweet peas in black bowls and white caudles in black holders decorated the tables. Programs, resembling the concert programs, and black musical notes as place cards decorated each cover.

Guests of the Choir at the banquet were Dr. and Mrs. V. F. Schwalm, and Mr. and Mrs. S. Milton Dell.

Rose Hampton. Metropolitan opera star, appears in. McPherson on Monday, March 7, at the city auditorium, under the auspices of the McPherson Cooperative Concert Association.

Miss Hampton, renowned singer, was scheduled to appear in McPherson at a later date, but a two weeks engagement to sing in the Metropolitan opera necessitated a change in date.

Miss Hampton’s voice has been described by various critics in such glowing phrases as "a beautiful voice of Immediate appeal, plus a flawless technique," "a bird like quality of voice and a deftness of facility that would put many loading coloraturas to shame."

Assistant Business Manager

Washington. D. C.—How many presidents of the United States received college training, and what colleges did they attend?

Of the seven most famous presidents, excluding the present incumbent of the White House, only three, amazingly enough, went to college. George Washington. Andrew Jack-son, Abraham Lincoln and Grover Cleveland received no college training. Theodore Roosevelt and Wood-row Wilson, the remaining two of the seven most famous, were highly educated. Roosevelt I was graduated from Harvard and Wilson from Princeton. Virginia and Johns Hopkins. Thomas Jefferson attended William and Mary.

In the days of Washington and Jackson there were fewer colleges and attendance was more difficult than in later years. In the case of Lincoln, as every schoolboy knows, abject poverty made formal education impossible, and Cleveland seems to have had little opportunity for

An ACP release of several weeks ago to the effect that students of today are more studious than their prototypes of ton years ago and less given to religious skepticism, drinking and moral infraction elicited the following poem in the Temple University News.

He never takes a drink And through his leisure hours He’ll think end think and think. He's really quite religious.

Raymond Coppedge ... Herbert Michael ... Russell Kingsley . Vera Heckman Rilla Hubbard ------ Robert Rice

Despite the lack of college training of five of this group of seven, the vast majority of American presidents did attend college, about 70 per cent to be exact. Since Cleveland's time all of them could lay claim to college training in some degree.

Wilson was the most highly educated of them all. He received his A. B. from Princeton, his degree in law from the University of Virginia and a Ph. D. from Johns Hopkins.

Former President Hoover was one of the first students at Stanford and President Franklin Roosevelt received an A. B. from Harvard and an LL. B. from Columbia. On several occasions he has also received the third degree from Congress and the Supreme Court.

Friday 18. It Is funny how a snow storm can cure a fellow of the itch to set out and plow; just now a lot of chores to do wouldn’t look so nice.

Shucks, the Swedes took us into camp. They were just plenty hot. and we seemed to he completely off. Well, I guess you can’t win all the time, but somehow I feel like they hadn't ought to have done it. But this is no time to lay down; let's scalp Mackie and his Coyotes, anyhow! Ho hum! Guess I’ll take an aspirin and go to bed.

19. It was a lot of fun today out opening up the walks; I always did like to pretend I was a snowplow out breaking a road through to some isolated town. This was a great day to drive downtown and watch a lot of cars sitting still in the street with their engines racing and their wheels spinning. It all goes to show that being able to change your mind is about as Important as being able to make it up.

20. Well. Regional Conference Is on. and all the leaders of the faith are gathering In. It seems there are less whiskers and veils than there used to be back in the good old days when we took a little more pride in our humility . . . Klotz sang "In-victus” tonight. It seemed rather fitting, after the scholastic honors just given him, to hear him sing.

23. Somehow Dr. Chappell makes mo want to think harder, to pray more, and to do things differently. I would like to be a better friend with God . . .

It sure docs me good to meet all these people, many of whom knew my dad way back when all they went to school for was to play pranks and have a good time—at least that is all they talk about now when they got together. A young fellow walked up to speak to me, and turned out to be from the old home community, a relative by marriage of my wife on one side, and my mother on another. Yes, it’s a small old world, as the fly. said when he lit on top of a man's bald head. Then, to cap it all off. as I sat at the typewriter pounding this off, who should come tiptoeing down my stairway but Dad himself. I had not realized how glad I could be to see him. We spent the afternoon visiting around with old friends of his, and I learned several new ones he was into when he was in college I don’t know whether I am quite ready to graduate yet or not.

Well we went to A Cappella tonight. and I wouldn't have missed it for the world. I may be just an old clod-hopper "off the farm." but somehow real artistry gets beneath my hide. Hard work and so forth has denied me some of the culture on the back, if they would come around for it up to and including prof. Fries.

24. Everybody must have celebrated last night, for they are under the weather today. We slipped through Philosophy of Religion because a fellow needs to be about half asleep to philosophize, but if the Romans had been no more energetic than our class. Mussolini would never have used a balcony. No one knew anything about Romo, and even Dr. Bright there’s that pat on the back I promised) showed little Interest In anything unless It was particularly dramatic. It would not have taken much of a force to have stopped us at Thermopylae this morning, but perhaps the empire will expand nt a more rapid rate next time. Well, it’s been a great week.

Life Made Sweet

He regulates his diet (And still remains dyspeptic), His morals are superb His manners inspiration,

For truly he's as good As gold before inflation.

The En Em Ess See says It—

No more shall I amaze When some poor student cries,

'Give me the good old days!"

P. S. Authority for the statement above the goodness of students was a national collegiate church group.

"My head is bloody but unbowed. I am the captain of my soul.” We need more fellows who can take it.

21. There is so much going on there is nothing to write about. It is tough, when a follow could miss chapel without being checked up on. to have so much worth hearing going on that you don’t want to miss.

As I gaze upon all these older heads about me, the thought comes that very soon I too shall have to go to washing my head. Next year I'll be only a visitor. "Tempus fugit"—In other words, the world do move, as Dr. Chappell would have insisted when he went up on deck to do a few chores.”

22. We had a good worship program this afternoon, except for the fact that everyone was so interested in getting his program properly folded you could hardly hear the music for the rustling of papers. Prof. Fisher should have known better than to have given a sheet of paper to every one of so young and inexperienced an audience. ... I wish I didn’t have so many classes Inter-

the college has to offer, but God forbid that I should not develop a taste for the beat. Four years ago I heard my first A Cappella concert. I went to hear some students sing some songs, I come away having heard some musicians interpret some masterpieces. I had never heard anything like that before. I have heard them at every opportunity since, and I have not been disap- pointed. Yes, when I hear the real thing it gets down inside me, until I feel like crying when it has to stop . . . Lot anyone who thinks I am just stringing a line dig back into my column and see how many things I have said Insincerely. Some-how I feel generous enough tonight to give every one of my profs a pat

William H. Beahm, Chicago Illinois, spoke before the B. Y. P. D. group Sunday evening and the chapel assembly Monday morning on the future of changing Africa. Mr. Beahm is a graduate of Manchester College and Bethany Biblical Seminary, and now a student of the University of Chicago. He served as missionary to Africa for a number of years and was for some time one of the outstanding leaders of the African Mission Field.

William H. Beahm, spoke to the College B. Y. P. D. group. Sunday evening, February 20. Using the subject, "Out of Africa," he told of the many things in our civilization that comes from Africa. One statement which he made is: “They used to take the African away from Africa : now they are trying to take Africa away from the African.”

Mr. Beahm told of several, char-acteristics of the African in his normal life, which, if taken advantage of and directed into the right chan-inels by the workers there, would make for helpful Christian living.

Embattled coed at the University of Alabama are hurling the charge of stinginess at the men on the campus.

They think they have good reason, since they recently learned that the university supply store, where food and drinks are sold, has one of its biggest crowds of the day immedia-! teky after 10:45 p.m., when the men must return their dates to domitories or sorority houses.

That means but one thing to them. Their fond young Romeos are simply waiting to buy refreshments until they have only one mouth. instead of two, to feed.

The boys insist that they aren't trying to save money on the girls, but that they like a late-evening snack; and "There are some dishes a

Professor Hess and his varsity debaters, Helen, "Razorback” Gibson, Alberta "Killer" Keller, Addison Saathoff. and William P. Thompson took the long trek of some seven hundred miles over icy, muddy, flood-ed, and "Mountainous" Country to participate in the Mid-South Invitation Tournament. 37 teams entered the men's division and 18 teams entered the women's division representing eight states.

The Saathoff-Thompson combination won its way through the preliminary rounds to qualify for the elimination debates where they were

The engagement and approaching marriage of Miss Fern Shoemaker of Bridgewater college, Va., to Prof, R. E. Mollor of McPherson college, was announced Feb. 12 when Mr, and Mrs. S. A. Shoemaker of Wenatchee, Wash., parents of the bride-elect, entertained at dinner. The marriage will take place Wednesday, May 31, at Bridgewater at the church of the Brethren.

Miss Shoemaker is head of the home economics department at defeated by a 2 to 1 decision. The Gibson-Keller team, however did not quite qualify for the elimination debates.

The entire Journey of the debaters was eventful and diversified. Hope, suspense, tanalization and uncertainty characterized the group Professor Hess so ably generaled. In spite of the rain, flooded rivers, snow- blocked roads, minor mechanic de- fects. Arkansas tatterdemalims, and the hallucinary conducts of the fe- males of the roup, a most enjoyable and educational peregrination was experienced by all.

Bridewater College. She graduated from McPherson college in 1928 and received her A. M. from Colorado University in 1937. She taught in both the home Economics departments of the Hillsboro and Gypsum high schools previous to accepting the position at Bridgewater two years ago.

He mentioned the joy of the negro, the tempo at which he lives and works, his appreciativeness of everything done for him, and his intense loyalty. He emphasized the fact that more help is needed and urged that young people think seriously of such work.

Miss Andes went into an elaborated discussion of the birthdays or the famous men born in the month of February. These men had been and are great men she told them— men who are known all over the world—men who had done great things. The man's name whose birthday was Tuesday had not been mentioned. After such emphasis, Miss Andes asked Merit Bright who the man was. Pride puffed Merit’s heart, as he answered, “My Daddy”.

Certainly Dr. Chappell is one of the greatest men to come to our campus. Such word pictures as he gives—the humor tucked In the speeches-—his Amen response—his pause at the time for laughing and his own chuckle—tho lack of notes and therefore the undivided attention of his audience—his Southern accent and slowness, yet the rapidity with which he speaks—all make him a most interesting and worthwhile speaker.

If the trustees should decide to meet twice a year. It would be to our advantage in the line of meals.

We Kansas residers almost had to blush upon the arrival of friends from Iowa, Missouri, and Nebraska when we were reminded of our Kansas "spring".

The subtility of his puns, jokes, etc., made Mr. Beahm well-liked. He told many Interesting customs, habits, behavior patterns and attitudes of his African friends. One of his interesting stories related in private seemed too good to keep. Some missionaries getting ready to come home on furlough sorted their clothes be-fore packing, since some were too old to bring back. Instead of burning them immediately they put them in the rubbish can. The next morning happened to bo Sunday and at church time their colored friends came garbed in the clothes which they had parceled out among themselves. The sight was indeed humorous.

The fate of the Spearfish Normal football team, from Spearhead. S. D., hung on a pair of football pants, two weeks ago.

The team had come to Aberdeen to play the Northern State Teachers College. The Spearfish team had an "All-American” tackle, according to its coach, but he couldn't play be-cause they couldn't find a pair of pants to fit his 260 pounds of brawn and muscle.

By The Colonel Senior Spree—

Here is our summary of the fire seniors who will play their last col-lege game at Kansas Wesleyan next Tuesday.

Chet Johnston, captain of the team, nursed a trick knee most of the sea-son and was tumble to maintain his usual scoring pace that was set earlier in the season. As leader of the Bulldogs. Chet did a remarkable job.

Don Barngrover, highest scoring guard in the conference and candidate for all conference honors, is still the same, consistent "Barney". He has also carried a huge share of the scoring and defensive burdens.

Tony Meyer, tallest center in the conference and best rebound re-triever, has been a tremendous help to the Canines this semester. Opposing centers will breath a sigh of relief when they realize that Tony will not face them next season.

Kurt Nayor, one of the fastest "swingsters", has made a spectacular climb from a sub on the second team last year to forward mate with Johnston this year. We understand he has already been offered a position and we know he will make good.

Harold Mohler, a steady reserve who can be depend upon in the crisis, has developed into a first-rate eager and deserves a great deal of credit for his perseverance.

Canines To Enter National Tourney

Despite the defeat by Bethany last week. Coach "Back" Astle has decided that the Bulldogs will enter the National Inter-collegiate basketball tournament at Kansas City on March 7-12. Ten members of the varsity team will probably make the trip.

To provide transportation for the players. Astle is attempting to schedule a game with Southwestern. Oklahoma City, or Wichita. Southwestern and Oklahoma City, coached by former McPherson mentors George Gardner and Melvin Binford, would be special attractions for McPherson fans.

Believing that the season's record and another chance to possibly retain the conference title at Kansas: Wesleyan will be sufficient for Mc-Pherson entering this year, the col-logo coach mailed in the application blank as an official entry.

The co-operative department of Cleveland College, where students alternate equal periods between work and school, bad more students at work than in school during the last semester, according to the supervisor.

was defeated by McPherson, who in turn trounced Baker and C. of E.. both of whom whipped Ottawa. . . . Coach Elmer (the Great) Schaake has applied for a backfield coaching poet at K. U. As far as McPherson is concerned, he can more his whole troop of Swedes up to Lawrence, pack and baggage. . . .Coach Ronald Flory’s second team youngsters will play a return engagement at Haven tonight weather conditions permitting against the Haven high school, home town of our own "Buck" Astle . . .Speaking of the conference horse race, it isn’t over by any means and don’t be surprised if C. of E. drops two successive games to Kansas Wesleyan and Bethany. . . .Or don’t be shocked if the title is shared by three or four teams, but we will be let down considerably if such a thing happens. . . .Next week we will submit our Kansas Conference Honor Roll instead of even attempting to select an all-conference gang.

Stirred to action by the loss to the Swedes, the McPherson college Bulldogs will make a desperate attempt to clinch the Kansas Conference crown as they battle the formidable Kansas Wesleyan Coyotes at Salina next Tuesday. This will be the last game of the Bulldog season.

In the previous contest between these two rivals, the Canines whipped Mackie's proteges 33-20, but the Methodists tamed the Baker Wildcats this week 49 to 35. As the Bulldogs were underdogs against Wesleyan in football, so are the Coyotes supposedly rated underdogs in this particular cage conflict as determined by ratings in the conference.

However, the McPherson lads are expecting one of the toughest battles of the season at Memorial Hall. Led by Capt. Cletus Snyder, Doc Watson, and Junior Shaw, Wesleyan has had only a fair season, but they are always primed for a "dog fight" against McPherson.

Gene Kemper, sports editor of the Topeka Daily Capital and well-known sports official, will be the referee. A large delegation of McPherson boosters are expected to follow the team to Salina.

To Face Wesleyan

"Educators no longer look upon the emotions as a disease which we can rid of by a kind of inoculation." The president of Vassar College, Dr. Henry McCracken, believes we have also abandoned the social code which pretends any surrender to the emotions is indecent.

Morgan Leads Scoring

Lyman Morgan, Ottawa univer-sity's dribbling flash, jumped into the Kansas conference scoring lead after he piled up 25 points against C. of E. and amassed a total of 103 points for an average of 11.5 points. Morgan established two records In the spree against the Presbys by garnering the highest total number of points while making the most counters in a single game.

As highest scoring guard of the conference. McPherson’s Don Barngrover shares sixth place honors with Junior Shaw, a man of Mackie. Chet Johnston. McPherson, is tied with Don Meek, Ottawa, for the 11th. position.
