Central Kansas high school seniors will gather in McPherson Saturday for the annual Senior festival at McPherson college, and college officials this morning said everything was in readiness for the big event.

Two of the highlights of the day will be a music contest in the college chapel and a tennis tournament. in the evening a banquet will be given in the basement of the First Church of the Brethren and an interesting program has been arranged.

Miss Jessie Brown, dean of music of the college, is in charge of the music conest, which will be held for Juveniles and adults. Many en-tries have been received and many more are expected by the time of the deadline tomorrow evening. Tuitions In the college music department will be given the first, second and third place winners in piano, voice and violin. The music faculty of the college will act as the judges.

Coach “Buck" Astle is in charge of the tennis tournament, which each year lints attracted many high school tennis players. The tournament will begin early Saturday morning and continue until completed sometime in the afternoon. Not many entries have yet been received and the coach fears that the list might be cut this year because of the fact that various big track meets and tennis tournaments are being held elsewhere over the state. Seniors as well as boys in the other three classes of high school are eligible for the tournament.

An interesting program has been arranged for the senior banquet Saturday evening. “Guides” have been selected to conduct student lours over the campus Saturday for the visiting seniors.

Flory Twins In Duo-Recital

Miss Vena Flory, violinist, and Miss Vena Flory, pianist, will present a public recital under the aus-pices of the Fine Arts Department of McPherson College. Friday evening. May 6.

An interesting repertoire has been planned and its interpretation will be given in the college chapel, at eight o'clock.

A bill which would ban "round dances" including the "big apple" and "truckin'' at Mississippi schools of higher learning has students at the University of Mississippi all riled up. Comment from rank and file students as well as student-body leaders heaped denunciation upon the bill.

Little Dan Cupid Making Big Hits

Little Dan Cupid has been at work again—or is it still! At any rate McPherson College is living up to it’s name of a match factory.

The first to make public their intentions to wed were Betty Ruth and Fred who announced their engagement the day after Betty Ruth returned from the choir trip—maybe it was an instance of absence making the heart grow fonder!

Lucile and Ira Milton's engagement came as a pleasant surprise to most of the campus. Now Lucile will have an extra special reason for returning to M. C. frequently next year.

Another victory for cupid occurred Sunday morning when Charlotte Wolfe, sister of Mamie and Leland Miller, both former McPherson College students were married at the home of J. J. Yoder.

Here's health, wealth, and happiness to each of the above mentioned and here's to a bigger and better McPherson College match factory.

Las rites were given Dr. Elmer LeRoy Craik., graduate and former, instructor of history and language at McPherson College, at the Washington Creek church near Lawrence. Monday afternoon.

Craik entered college in rgw year 1907. and graduated in 1910. In the following September, he took charge of the department of Latin and German. A few years later ho dropped the Greek and taught Latin and German.

Desiring further preparation, in 1915 Dr. Craik secured a leave of absence from McPherson College and entered the University of Kansas for two years of graduate study. By June, 1917. he had completed the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy.

Returning to McPherson in September 1917, he devoted himself solely to teaching History and political science. Later he did further graduate study at the University of Chicago. University of Edinburgh, Scotland, and at Cambridge University. In the fall of 1924 he went to Juniata College, Huntingdom, Pennsylvania, where he taught until two years ago when he retired be-cause of ill health. He died in April 28th and services wore in charge of Dr. J. J. Yoder.

Installation services for next year's S. C. M. cabinet members were conducted Tuesday morning during the S. C. M. period, in the Student Union Room.

Dr. Burton Metzler gave the! charge of the S. C. M. to the new cabinet members who were seated In a semi-circle at the front of the room. As a pledge of their loyalty and service to the Student Christian Movement, the new cabinet members stood while they accepted the charge. Dr. Metzler gave the benediction and the entire assembly sang "Follow the Gleam” as a conclusion of the installation service.

The following people will compose the S. C. M. cabinet for the coining. school year: Co-presidents. Luther Harshbarger and Vera Heckman; treasurer, Elmer Dadisman; secretary. Mary Elizabeth Hoover, co-program chairman. Gladys Shank and Raymond Flory, co-chairman of the Reinterpretation of Religion commission. Mary Elizabeth Hoover and Dwight Horner; Rural Life co-chairman. Don Newkirk and Esther Sherfy; World Cooperation cochair-man, Rosalie Fields and Addison Saathoff: co-chairman of the Creative Leisure commission. LaVena High and Phill Myers: Personal and Family Relations co-chairmen. Opal Hoffman and Steven Stover. The so-cial committee will be composed of Elma Minninck and Delbert Barley and the publicity committee will In-

In a sharp battle of words, three speakers yesterday morning went on tho “stump" for their favorite candidates for the primary nomination of treasurer of the student council. Don Barngrover and Dan Zook, members of the "M' club, were the official paddler and timer, respectively.

John Bower, interspersing his speech with many quotations and handing “Barney" a cigar, extolled the virtues of an outstanding accounting student and understudy of Prof. Fries. Joelle Letkeman.

Dale Stucky, believing 19 hours of commerce and previous administrative experience wore necessary qualifications of the candidate, submitted the name of Raymond Flory for the voters' consideration.

Dave McGill, with no hand-shaking or baby-kissing, presented a classmate. Stephen Stover, as a candidate for the office. As business manager or the Quadrangle and leader in high school and college, he believed Stover possessed ability for the po-sition.

The annual formal banquet of the Women's Athletic Association, which was held at the Hawley Roof Garden Wednesday night, brought the events of the year of this organization to a fitting climax. It is an old W. A. A. custom at this time of year for members, new members, and former members to meet on this occasion and celebrate together the passing of another successful year.

The basketball game (program) was started when Referee Marjory Flory blow her whistle and gave "The Tip Off." But the ball went out of bounds and Mrs. Becky Morrison, former member of the W. A. A., had to "Throw In." Then from the rooters that were looking in on this game. Mark Porter burst forth In a "Side Line Yell." The girls bad been playing hard so “Time Out” was called while the Varsity Male Quartet entertained.

But the game must continue, and. immediately a “Goal" was scored by Miss Warner. What a game! And at this tense moment the referee blew the whistle and the first half was over. And certainly “The Half" of the whole game was LaVena High's clever and humorous reading. The ‘Time Keeper” kept her eye on the stop watch, and just at the right minute gave her signal that the game was over and that all students of M. C. should stand and sing "All Hall To Thee Our College Fair."

The table decorations were simple but most attractive in the school colors, red and white. Clever programs representing the tennis court were at each individual cover, and a place card across the. middle of the court represented the tennis net. The ten- nis racquets were in the nut cup Red and white carnations furnished the rest of the decorations.

Four McPherson college co-ed recreational students, accompanied by Miss Warner, attended the Washburn college play day last Saturday. Those attending were Mary Richards. Marian Washier, Marjorie Flory, and Richard Van Vleet.

Kansas University, Wichita Uni-versity, Washburn college, and Mc-Pherson college was represented in the various events, which included group sports in volleyball, deck tennis, and baseball and individual competition in ping-pong, tennis, and badminton.

Tills was the first co-educational recreation play day in the state and all the directors hope it will become a larger affair, next year.

Competition was by color teams. The color teams were red, blue, yellow, brown orange and purple. As each student registered be was given a color streamer indicating his team.

From 10:30 to 12:10 the teams competed in volleyball, deck tennis, and baseball. Golf was also in program but not a group sport. At 1:00 a picnic lunch was served in the Field House followed by introduction of schools represented, and sponsors. A small negro boy from the colored recreation group of Topeka rendered a musical number.

1:30 to 2:45 participants had their choice of individual sports as tennis, ping-pong, badminton shuf-fleboard. Short round robin tourna-ments were conducted. Badminton was the most popular of these sports

Director Of Instrumental Music In Charge Of Program

Appearing In the final program on the National Music Week Celebration, the Hutchinson String Choir, under the direction of Alan Watrous, will present a concert of high class music at the First Church of the Brethren next Sunday night at 7:30. There will be no admission charge to this concert and the public is invited.

The Hutchinson String Choir is one of the finest organizations of its kind in the midwest. It has appeared in concert in McPherson before, having opened the Chamber Music Festival given in McPherson College last year. Its members are composed of students of the Hutchinson high school and Junior college and a few others who are interested in playing in the group. The personnel, consisting of twenty-five violins, violas, and cellos, boasts of players who have gained considerable success in various contests throughout tht state. Most of the members of the ensemble are also members of the Hutchinson high school orchestra which was given a rating of Highly Superior at the Regional contest at Wichita.

As a special feature, the Hutchinson High School Horn Quartet will appear in one number. This ensemble was rated us highly superior at the regional contest at Wichita and in a very flue musical group. As another attraction. Miss Ruth Yer-kes, ‘cellist, will appear as soloist. Miss Yerkes will be remembered by McPherson musicians for her outstanding work in the "Creation" accompanying orchestra last month. She received a rating of highly superior in the content at Wichita.

The conductor of the choir, Alan Watrou,. needs no introduction to McPherson. His ability as a conductor and musician of high rank was established when he appeared with the choir last year. Mr. Watrous is the Director of Instrumental Music In the city school of Hutchinson.

The program will consist of numbers by Handel, Vivaldi. Beethoven, and a very lovely arrangement of Stephen Foster melodies by W. B. Coburn. The choir will be entertained at the McPherson College girls dormitory for supper Sunday night.

"Pile in, and let's be gone” was the yell of we eager Juniors last Thursday afternoon as we retreated from classes and school activities for the rest of that day and the next. And pile in we did. Oh. If the cops could have seen us then—’twould have been bad. But off we sped to our destination. Bennington Lake. where we played soft ball until chow time. A few, including bathing beauty Larsen, took a plunge in the chilly waters of the lake. Larsen looked quite stunning in Miriam's green swimming suit, but lacked some of the necessary curves.

After a sumptuous supper some of us went a-boating across the calm waters of the peaceful lake. Ah. romance, but shucks—,-no moon. Ho. there Mr. Pelican, how about a ride? We took him back to camp, and had Phil give him a physical exam. Poor bird—a bad man with a gun had shot him. But Yoder got the bright idea that the pelican would look fine in the college museum.

The rest of the evening was spent

around the camp fire by most of the retreaters, but a few had to have their fun and play their jokes. Along about midnight the bunch began looking around for a soft and dry spot to rest their weary bones. Campbell, High and Hubbard, made their bed in the back of Horn’s coupe, but crowded conditions and the absence of holes for the hip bones soon drove them to get inside the car.

Very early next morning, cramped, cold, and bedraggled, the sleeper-outers sought the camp fire and began to yell for breakfast. After baron and eggs, a tour was made over to see the wonders of Rock City. Believe it or not, there are rocks in Kansas. Various other activities, including an exciting game of volley ball, filled the morning hours.

Immediately after dinner, most of the group returned to the college, but a few lingered on to go. boating, swim and play some more ball. Saturday—"There goes a Junior. Look at that sunburn!”

Official Student Publication of McPherson College, McPherson, Kansas Published every Friday during the school year by the Student Council.

to run after the election.

Now is the time for us to take an inventory of the possible candidates, weigh their qualities and make our choices. The success of the next school year depends in part upon the wisdom of our choices. It seems only logical that we should consult with those whom we nominate and obtain their consent to be a candidate. It is always one’s right to say, “I do not choose to run.”

Of course, we have our bally-hoo and fun before the primary, but it’s to be forgotten at the polls.

It may take courage to say one still believes in democracy but we as students bare the privilege of making it work on our campus. It’s time for elections, and every student should exercise his right in choosing candidates capable and worthy of tilling the student positions.

A humorist once remarked that a peculiarity of Mexican politics was that the candidates had to run both before and after the election. We place our faith in the intelligence, integrity, and good judgment of those we elect, without thought that they will betray the trust and be forced

Another conclusion drawn from the compilation was that the student who sleeps the least spends the most time studying.

Between me and the printer it's no wonder my news is sometimes a little belated. However, I still must mention the grand recital given by the High sisters. It proved to be a most interesting one with such a combination. Evelyn, we still marvel at the rapidity of your fingers running over the ivories.

The storm of Tuesday night provided a lot of excitement. The library students were worried as to the best way of getting home. Bob Frantz and Dwight fared quite well with the exception of the lights from a car that had been halted by the mud. Well, we're glad they are so economical and have such a high value attached to their trousers. Herbert Ikenberry sat on the library table when it began to rain so hard. I guess he wanted to keep his feet dry. Lamar and Marian had been

The W. A. A. banquet was a snappy little affair. The program went off in tip-top speed and the whole thing was just long enough to be most enjoyable. La Vena, that reading was hard on you and us, too. Bertie and Rilla certainly furnished the proper audience inspiration. It was a delightful little after-dinner reading.

We’re happy for Lucile and Ira Milton. It won't be long until such announcements will become a fad. Are there any speculations as to the next in line to follow the other ten happy and mutual promises?

The McPherson department of music presented the Brass Choir under the direction of Professor Loren Crawford as conductor and Eugene Crabb as bandmaster, Sunday afternoon.

An appreciative audience listened to a varied program Including solos. a number by the brass quartet and numbers by the entire choir.

This program was given as a part of the celebration of National Music Week which continues from May first to the eighth.

Homer says Amos Miller is studying to be n bachelor of divinity, but suggests it is useless activity for after he gets it he will not be one, Perhaps Amos hopes to become a master of '‘Divinity’’—If so, I can tell him that too is a forlorn hope, for when he gets his degree he will find it to be the third degree. These engagements and announcements are coming so thick and fast it takes your breath away: apparently with the coming of the recession people have given up hope of becoming rich and have decided to try becoming happy instead. We are beginning to wonder who will be the next—I am looking for Billy Thompson to be sporting a diamond almost any day now. Yes, the bug seems to have bitten a good many, until it seems likely even Dr. Schwalm’s suggested quarantine will not stop the epidemic. But there is one consoling thought, at least—very few of the afflicted will die from the attack, though they may die without having recovered from its affects, while quite a number will find themselves immunized against further attacks.

Small wonder we could not get into the North Central, for some of our profs arc so veneered with culture they could not wait for the A Cappella singers to finish the last beautiful strains of their epilogue, but had to jump up and make a run for it to get out of the chapel first. Hut Prof. Metzler, at least, has some respect for his students, for the other day when he made an assignment ho requested that someone inform Mr. Lloyd of it when he awoke. Wo are going right along in Philosophy of religion: I just solved the problem of evil, and now we are getting deeply into Heaven and/or Hell.

Yes. and we had quite a time in Roman History the other morning, too, with a little bit of Hebrew history brought in, which is perhaps "Raw Materials In Peace and War” by Eugene Staley, discusses more in detail the problem of the accessibility of raw materials. It is a basic analysis and worth study and concentration. ’’Not a shift in boundaries but a lessening of the economic significance of boundaries is called for” says the author.

enough to say about that! Wo can say a little more, however, about the dinner at Dr. Bright's, where everyone’s true nature was revealed, from his besetting sins to his political faith—Charley Nettleton being a man without a party. It was an occasion to be remembered long after Greece and Rome are decently forgotten.

I wasted two or three hours perusing Congressional Record anent the mature deliberations of Congress on the momentous days when we were entering the war against Germany. For example, we find this bit of wisdom:

“Mr. Mann. Mr. Speaker. I ask unanimous consent to address the House for three minutes on a matter to which no one will take exception.

"The Speaker. The gentleman from Illinois asks unanimous consent to address the House on a matter that no one will take exception to. (Laughter.) Is there objection?

If all the words that are wasted in the record could be placed end to end in a straight line you would have to have the new 200 inch telescope to see half-way to the end of it. Those boys would not think of sinking a fifty dollar scow in a PWA lake without holding a congressional investigation and spending thirty thousand dollars, but they can send one hundred million people into war with only an afternoon’s academic debate and two hundred pages of the Congressional Record. I guess I’ll go to Congress, where you can nay all you wish and someone else pays the bill.

The Choral Club concert was a big success, except for the announcement by Mr. Harshbarger. If his voice does not carry any better than that at home, I’ll bet I know who his boss is.

Canines Defeat Juco Trackmen

Coach “Buck” Astle's college track team last week again defeated the Hutchinson Junior college track team 67.5 to 64.6 at Hutchinson. McPherson collected 7 firsts and the rivals 6, however, both teams had two men in a tie for first place in the pole vault.

Scoring heavily in all field events, except the javelin, as the Blue Drag-ons proved superior on the track, the Bulldogs were hard-pressed for he victory. The new quarter-mile track was in fast condition, but the pits and runways wore soft, prevent-ing better marks in those events.

Highlight of the meet was Rollin Wanamaker's new school record high Jump at 5 feet. 11 inches. The old record, one inch lower, was held jointly by Leonard Wiggins and Ger-ald Custer in 1933. Funk and Stauffer swept away Juco competitors to give McPherson a dear field in the high Jump and Van Vleet. McGill and Voshell took charge of the broad Jump.

Good marks were turned in by Tony Meyer on the discus at 131 feet, 1 inch: Caldwell on the high hurdles at 15.9 (New Juco record): Hargadine on the Javelin at 181 feet, 11 inches (New Juco record); and Dickerson on the 440 at 53.

With firsts in the dashes and a lap in the mile relay for 11^1/4 points, Dickerson was high point man of the meet, closely followed by Porter, who accumulated 10 points in the mile and 880

Install New Officers

Installation for the new officers of the B. Y. P. D. was held at the church, Sunday evening. Venn Flory played an organ prelude, after which Elma Minnick rend, "Be Strong.” Frances Campbell sung, “Teach Us to Pray.”

Miss Shockley, sponsor, challenged the group in a short talk, looking bark over this year's accomplish-incuts, and stressing the value of making plans for next year. She read a group of questions formulated by Dr. Kurtz. which were helpful for an individual check-up. The installation service itself, was in the form of candle-lighting for the officers, after which the entire group formed a circle and sang "Follow the Gleam." Dr. Metzler gave the closing consecration prayer.

The offering which was taken was sent to the General Conference Bud-get Fund. Announcement was made of the Southwest District B. Y. P. D. Conference at the Cut Wichita Church of the Brethren, May 7 and 8. Several students will be speakers of

Brass Choir Concert

Bulldogs Win

From Bethel

McPherson college defeated Bethel college Tuesday afternoon in a dual track meet at the local college field. High wind, showers and sickness among the athletes prevented any outstanding records on the part of either team.

The Bethel team accumulated eight first to seven for McPherson, however the Bulldogs accounted for 72 points to 68 for the visitors from Newton.

Eric Friesen, Bethel, was high scorer of the meet with 16^1/4 points. He scored first in the high jump, javelin and broad jump. Mark Porter, McPherson, won firsts in the mile and 2-mile, and Joe Letkeman, also of McPherson, won firsts in the two hurdle events. Good records wore turned in by Rousell, Bethel, who ran the 440-yard dash in 5 seconds. Porter, of the local team, ran the 2-mile in 10:22.9. Dan Zook, McPherson field entry, tossed the shot 39 feet three and one-fourth inches to capture first in the event.

Coach "Buck" Astle of the Bulldogs found a new discuss whirler in Dave McGill.. The "Tennessee Terrier" tossed the plate 132 feet five inches. Meyer. Zook and McGill, all of McPherson, swept the field in this event.

Ratzlaff. McPherson, was nosed out by Potter, Newton, in the century dash, which was timed at 10.7. Rousell was very fast in the 220 and 440 and this fast lad with the smooth stride brought much admiration from the track fans. Bower and Stover ran a very close finish in the 2-mile with Stover, McPherson, getting an edge for third place.

By The Colonel Sterling Relays Forecast—

Take it or leave it, here is our "lineup” on the Sterling relays this afternoon.

Southwestern—Conch George Parker has a few dash men such as Bob Brown, who ran the 100 in 9.9, but the team lacks balance such as smaller schools have. May win a few points, but won't take too many events.

Ottawa—Our selection to win the meet. Well-balanced, especially on the track . O'Neal. Matthis, and Ram-say are the chief point-makers. Also strong on seconds and thirds.

C. of E.—With Marshall and George, distance men; Newland, shot put; Cliff Rock, broad Jump: and Johnson, javelin, us the outstanding performers, the Presbys may spring several surprises.

Baker—K. Smith on the 440, Hersh on the high Jump, and Bonebrake on pole vault will carry the Wildcat burden of the scoring.

Friends—Fairly good in the field, but rugged on the track. Like Southwestern, they may make a few points, but won't take too many events. McAdams, a negro, is the Quaker leader.

Bethel—Plenty of push with this lad Friesen leading, but they will be up against stiffer competition.

Sterling—May win their own meet with such men as Dill, Harris, Robinson, and Dunn. Conch Chrouser's spiked shoe artists will be on famil- iar ground and probably will pile up points.

Kansas Wesleyan—Not even considered, except for Watson. Chartier, and Morris (the coach). The Coyotes

C. of E. Netmen Repeat

Three Captains Picked By Club

Members of the McPherson College "M" club elected Dave "Ten-nessee Terrier” McGill, football captain; Bob Wiegand, basketball captain; and Mark Porter, track captain at their annual banquet Saturday night, April 30. The "M" club is composed of college men who earn an athletic letter.

McGill, a sophomore, has earned two letters in football and basketball. As a regular end, he gained a position on the second all-conference team. Although bothered with many injuries, "Tennessee Terrier" was famous throughout the conference for vicious tackling and spectacular pass-snatching.

Wiegand, a Junior, has earned three letters in football and two nn basketball. He was an outstanding center early in the cage season, but he willingly shared his position with Tony Meyer, a more experienced eager, the last semester. Bob is one of the most popular athletes and he is an ardent enthusiast of the famous Bulldog “swing system”.

Porter, a senior, has earned two McPherson letters in track and was unanimously elected captain for the past season. Mark holds the school record on the mile and 2-mile runs and he attended Independence Junior college before coming to McPherson.

Gladys Shank, and the McPherson college male quartet.

Minneapolis. Minn.—Three presidents elected in one year and still no president in office is the unique rec-ord of the University of Minnesota’s Hangers Club. Elections have been held each quarter since last spring, and each time the now president failed to return to classes for the quarter that he was supposed to head the organization.
