A dust cloud hovered around Arnold Hall all day Saturday, as the girls dug accumulated dirt out of the corners and whisked away layers of dust from their respective rooms.

Hurry, scurry! those pictures must be hung, dresser scarfs must be washed (but just get the iron if you can), and hike away those articles which tempt sticky fingers.

All day long the girls with hair in curlers and dressed in print dress-es, isolated themselves making their rooms and their own persons presentable and attractive for their evening guests. Didn't you boys feel sadly neglected. Saturday?

Bang, thump! the guys bounded up the stairs at 8 o'clock. "What, no candy? Humph, gypped!”

And for three hours faculty members, friends, relatives, and the rest that made up the one hundred sixty-some quests, paraded those precious floors, newly sanded, praising and criticizing, visiting and playing. Certainly it was not surprising to see some of the boys park In Just one room daring alt those hours.

Some of the boys from over the way seemed to be very interested In finding out who of the girls are good housekeepers. They went to every room looking for finger prints on mirrors, and examining tops of doors and pipes. "Did you get your fingertips dirty?"

"May I have your autograph?" In looking over the lists, we find that a young gentleman who lives in Fahnestock gave his address as "Fields" and as an ambition one of the men faculty members has a desire to live in the girls' dorm. Tsch, tsch! A number of guests, when asked^- the name of their favorite song, wrote "I Love You Truly" and "Would You" (?)

In the meantime, downstairs it the parlor, punch, cake, and mints were served to all the guests.

At 11 o'clock, when the hostesses faces were stiff from continually smiling. Mother Emmert rang the bell, and with a sign of relief, the girls uttered a weak "That's all folks. Goodnight."

“Who’s Who” Honors M. C.

College Becomes Participant Of Society Of Colleges and Universities

Nominate 6 Students

Personnel Committee Selects Group As School Representatives

McPherson College has been asked to nominate six students as candidates to "Who's Who In American. College and Universities." From these final selections will be made by the editors of the publication.

Those finally selected will have their biographies printed in the annual along with those of thousands of other outstanding students throughout the United States. This will mark McPherson's initial appearance in the volume now being edited for the fourth time. Over four hundred institutions were represented last year.

Nominations have been made by the Personnel Committee of the college. The qualifications for selection set up by the editors of the publication are a combination of the following; Character, scholarship, leadership in extra-curricular activities: i. e. athletics, society, religion, and politics, possibility of future useful-ness to business and society. The nominations ere made from the Junior and Senior Classes and include both men and women. The quota for each institution is determined on the basis of 1^1/2 per cent of the total enroll-ment.

To Include Every Phase

This year's "Who's Who” will include every phase of college activity and the college world in addition to the biographies of outstanding students. There will be a synopsis of each University and College in America. Including year founded, president, etc. Other information includes number of students; catalog price of year's expense; scholarships available, unique ways in which men and woman pay or partly pay their way through college; and rules and regulations, statistics, and information both interesting and beneficial.

The Student Council is cooperating in this year's publication. Nominations have already been submitted to the editors of “Who's Who."

National Basis

Who's Who” has created a national basis of recognition for students, devoid of politics. initiation fees, and dues The purposes of the

publication are

(1) As an incentive for students to get the most out of their college careers

(2) As a means of compensation to students for what they have al-ready done

(3) As a recommendation to the business and social world.

(4) As a standard of measurement for membership comparable to such agencies as Phi Beta Kappa and Rhodes Scholarship Award.

Since its first publication, this annual has received the endorsement of over 2000 presidents of student bodies, 500 deans, and 1000 presidents of various college organize-

Concert Drive Nears Climax

The McPherson Co-operative Concert association started its week-long membership campaign by a dinner Monday evening, with more than 100 representatives attending. There were (our students from college. Frances Campbell. Margaret Fry. Dan Zook, and Wayne Albright.

At least 1,000 members was the goal set for McPherson. One student has already sold 37 tickets, which is very commendable, but If the plan is to really go over, the students must get behind It solidly and push.

The main address was given by Mr. Eastman Boomer, representative of the Columbia Concert association. The following points were stressed.

2. The membership is secured in a one-week campaign. At the end of the campaign the membership list is closed, and no one may join for another year.

3. The members, upon payment of annual dues, are entitled to attend all concerts which are presented by the association each season, without additional expense.

4. No single admissions are sold for any concert. Only members of the association can attend. Presentation of a membership card is required for admittance.

5. All money secured through the collection of membership dues is deposited in a local bank under the jurisdiction of a local treasurer. The money is spent only for the artists and attend to local expenses.

C. A minimum of three concerts is assumed during each season, and as many as the membership makes poss-ible.

7. Artists are chosen by a local committee at the close of the membership campaign.

8. The more members the more concerts there will be. Any McPherson member of the McPherson association may attend any or all of the five concerts at Newton, which include the Russian Imperial Singers: Gitana, the dancer; Panvini and Mayo, operatic team; Joseph Bentouelli, Metropolitan tenor; and Dalles Frantz, con. cert pianist.

Each member Is therefore assured of at least eight concerts three of which are in McPherson. However if the membership warrants it, more than three may be secured, so every one to his own advantage should bad this drive to success.

A number of college students made use of the unusual opportunity of hearing Dr. Charles M. Sheldon, Topeka, internationally known author, at the First Congregational church lost night Dr. Sheldon is probably more widely known for his famous book. “In His Steps." a book that is second only to the Bible in the number of volumes sold. His subject was “Stop This War".

Plans have been laid for the formation of a large community oratorio chorus by musical directors of the college and city.

The matter of the a cappella choir participation in the community oratorio was presented by Dean Bright and it was met by the unanimous approval of the organization. The plan was also approved by the accompanied choral group of the college, a new organization of the campus this year. The a capella and accompanied choir will be important factors in the presentation of this oratorio.

Professor Nevin Fisher will direct the oratorio and Professor Crawford will direct the orchestra. These two directors of music on the McPherson College campus have been highly honored by their selection as leasers

The oratorio selected is ‘ The Creation" by Josef Haydn. It will be presented sometime early in The personnel of the chorus is expect-ed to reach a total of 250 voices.

Mr. and Mrs. Washler and Barbara and Mr. and Mrs. Van Vleet and son of Langdon, Kansas, spent Sunday in McPherson with Marian Washier and Richard Van Vleet.

Women Athletes Adopt New Plan 5 Seasonal Clubs Organized; Badmington, Outing, And Orchesis Added

The Women's Athletic Association has adopted the activity club plan. The central organization is an executive board composed of a president, vice-president, secretary, treasurer, publicity manager, faculty advisor and bead of the various clubs.

There are five seasonal sports -softball. basketball, tennis, volley ball, and table tennis; three others which function throughout the year— outing, orchesis, and badminton.

Membership is based entirely on participation. A girl who is an active member of a club automatically becomes a member of the Association. Each club formulates its own program, sets its own dues, if any, and decides what active membership shall mean.

There is no point system. Theonly award given by the Women's Athletic Association is the block "M". the requirements for which are: the student must have participated in eight activities, four of which must have been, at McPherson; she must be at least a second semester junior and must have a scholastic record of C or more; she must have a posture grade of B. When the student has met these requirements, her name in brought up before the Board which then votes on her attitude and sportsmanship.

Instructive Chapels

McPherson College students have been privileged to attend Inspiration-al, instructive, and entertaining chap-el programs during the past week. "Last Friday the senior class had charge of the program and Miss Mar-jorie Flory announced the numbers Miss Lucile Cole gave a chalk talk. Following that, Mr. Charles Nettleton sang the familiar song," A House by the Side of the Road." At the conclusion of the program Avis Heckman gave a short review of Martin John-son's life.

Monday morning Dean J. B. Bright explained the situation on Spain. He brought out the fact that there is really a little war in Spain and said that there were a small group of Americans fighting In the Spanish war.

Professor Maurice Hess gave a talk Wednesday morning about the importance of being able to speak well before an audience. He stated that McPherson College offered splendid opportunities in the line of debate. He also stated that he wished to see at least twenty young men and fifteen young women try for a place on the teams.

The general theme for S. C. M. Tuesday morning was "College Friendships". Three aspects of this theme were discussed by Mary Elizabeth Hoover, Gordon Yoder and Miss Della Lehman.

are the intimate friends, those with whom we share our inmost thoughts. Next there are the school friends with whom we associate in the class room and library. Lastly there are those friends in the community whom we cooperate with in the building up of a finer place in which to live. "Appreciation of friendships grow", said Mary Elizabeth, "From grade school chums to intimate college friendships." Before coming to college one looks forward to the friend-ships that will he formed there in the first few weeks of school nothing is more appreciated than an under-standing friend. The speech was ended with the thought that college made friendships are to be valued among the highest things in life. What College Friends Mean

"What college friendships mean to me", was discussed by Gordon Yoder Four qualities that make a friend were brought out, they were truth-fulness, loyalty, respect for reserve and silence and an unreserved hon-esty, one who speaks his convictions honestly but in sympathy with your ideas is a friend. It was pointed out that college friendships mean most because they are lasting, the friend-ships we hold through life, and for this reason one should choose wisely in the selection on best friends.

Miss Leman gave the final talk on "Friendships through the yearns" "One must have something in common with another person”, said Miss Lehman, "before he can be called a friend" There are those who include a very small number of people in their friendships and with these few they are most intimate. Then there is the opposite extreme. Those who know everyone and are known by everyone but fall to make any close friendships. Miss Lehman ended the discussion with the statement that in later years we will be glad to meet college and reminisce about college happenings and therefore one should not be selfish with friendships.

World Service Active

Tonight at five o’clock the World Service group will leave the campus for a wiener roast and camp fire ser-vice. This is the first social evening for this group. Only a few more will be held. The organization meets once a week.

Last week the World Service group got off to a good start with about sixty students attending the first meeting. The group enjoyed singing various camp songs and following the singing there were talks from those who had attended church camps in various states

This group aims to help those vital-ly interested in Christian work do more effective group work and to try to solve specific church problems

A series of discussions on both for-iegn and home missions are planned and probably next semester the organization will send out a strong deputation team

Have you ever eaten rhinoceros soup for dinner ? Sounds like a strange confection doesn't it? Yet that is what the members of the Ag-ate party last summer, partook of at one meal. At least some one threw a rhinoceros foot into the pot of soup once, and at mealtime all par-took heartily.

Chicago. Ill.—(ACP)—A university is primarily an idea and the re-sponsbility for framing that idea belongs to the students. Dr. Frank-lyn Bliss Snyder, vice president, of Northwestern.

"If your idea of a university pic-tures it as a continuation of high school, where you study 'lessons' and take part in 'recitation', that is what the university will be to you.' he said.

"It you think of it as a collection of classrooms and laboratories where you spend all of your time and energy in study, denying to yourselves the opportunities for developing any phase of your personality except the intellectual, that again is what your university will be to you.

"If you think of it as a training

ground for athletics and cheer leaders, a series of lack-luster days between contests in the stadium and gymnasium, that again it will be to you, and nothing more.

Dr. Snyder continued. “I hope yours (idea of a university) is of a place of wider opportunities than you have hitherto enjoyed; of opportunities for work and play, for learning and questioning, for living with Interesting people representing many parts of the world and many attitudes toward life ... for enjoying starlight and sunshine and the beauty of the lake and music and art and other ‘useless’ things that in the long run prove most useful of all. . for opening windows into your minds, and for exposing yourself to ideas."

Last your McPherson College celebrated the fiftieth anniversary of the establishment of the College. We are just now beginning the fiftieth year of the actual operation of the College. We are, then, during all this year living through and in a sense cele- brating the fiftieth anniversary of the opening of the College.

Last year's celebration activities were a marvelous success in every way. The year ended on a grand note of triumph and enthusiasm. During the year, we also raised about $65,000 on a $100,000 campaign tenths College

In view of the imperative and immediate need of these improvements, the Trustees of the College have decided to continue the campaign at

I noticed the other night my cousin Vera Green looked sort of distressed, so I thought I would try to cheer her up a little out of her homesick spell. But it wasn't home-sickness at all: some other dame made off with the handsome Sophomore (don't all you boys blush at once) she was sighing for. I told her not to worry too much, but to go tie to some ordinary looking Freshman who would probably amount to more in the long run than her lost hero. After all, if every girl could get a good-looking man, what would become of all us smart fellows? There was another serious question in her mind, and that was where to go with the fellow and what to do with him when she had him, unless it was Sunday so they could go to church.

"Come with me," I shouted, "and behold your dreams come true." And forthwith I became historical. I told of college men straining their utmost amid choking dust, puffing and sweating in their earnestness to accomplish their task. Once again they cut their hands on the old met-

Last Tuesday evening the Junior debate team won over the seniors. The seniors who upheld the negative side were, Theresa Strom and Alberta Keller. Billy Thompson and Phillip Davis debated on the negative side. The question was the College debate question for this year. “Resolved: That the National Labor Relations Board should be empowered to enforce arbitration of all industrial disputes."

The Judges were: Professors John Boitnott. Burton Metzler, and Miss Smyth.

Next week there will be a Freshman-Sophomore debate. Ester Sherfy and Donald Newkirk, freshman will uphold the affirmative side and Stephen Stover and Dwight Horner. Sophomores, the negative.

Temporarily floored. I canvassed the remaining possibilities. One might make a dale to go to the library, if she did not want to study. Then too, there are always strange and unused bypaths on such a widespread campus where two might walk in the moonlight—if there be any moon; not to slight the dark halls of the Ad building or the privacy of a parked car where people may hold hands. . . . . Somehow disheartened. I professed a sudden need for study, and went out alone to walk under the stars, and to ponder how remarkable Is human nature.

Only about fifty churches out of about 220 in our territory were canvassed last year. About 382 alumni out of more than 2.000 contributed to last years' campaign. Churches not solicited last year will be seen this year unless they have again suffered a crop failure. Alumni and other friends of the college will be given opportunity to help on this project. Funds sent to us before January 15 will be of very greatest help to us in our program of standardization.

Five years ago, if someone had suggested a Federal appropriation for college students, the Idea would have been ridiculed and its sponsor denounced as a Communist, Social-ist, Demagogue and enemy of the people. Now, however, the idea of Federal aid for college students is generally accepted. The only subject of serious debate is the amount to be devoted to this purpose.

There is one important factor in considering the subject of Federal appropriations for the benefit of young people. The government is borrowing money to spend on them, but this same generation that is receiving the money will also have to pay it back.

The old folks who are getting Federal benefits that are paid for with borrowed cash will pass the debt along to younger generations. The young people, however, do not have this advantage.

The current college generation will live long enough to have their sleep disturbed by the sound of government bonds falling due in the years to come.

The old saw about opposite attracting each other in affairs of the heart is just the exception that proves the rule, science has decided.

Dr. E. Lowell Kelly of Connecti-cut State college is piling up evidence that like attracts like when it comes to matrimony.

This attraction of likes is most pronounced in the matter of physical traits, with blondes being attracted to blondes, athletic men favoring athletically inclined women, and men of sedentary inclinations finding small women to their liking.

Love, on the basis of Dr. Kelly’s findings, affects the judgement of women more than that of men. The women wore inclined to over-rate their men's handsomeness, but the men came closer to the mark in Judging the beauty of their women.

Washington. D. C. —College students continue to be among the recipients of Federal benefits along with farmers, the unemployed, the aged, the blind and other groups that are on the receiving end of Federal aid.

Of course, the cash that goes to college students is not as much as that which goes to the tillers of the soil and the needy unemployed but. at that, the young people do pretty well for themselves. Twenty million dollars, the amount the National Youth Administration is this year paying to students, is a long way from small change.

Slightly over $10,000,000 will go to college students and the remainder to high school boys and girls. This $10,000,000, if paid out in the form or scholarships, would provide $500 a piece for 20,000 college students. However, being distributed, as it will be, in amounts of about $15 a month, this sum will help pay the bills of around 75,000 young men and women during the current academic year.

This $20,000,000 allocation for students, however, doesn’t satisfy all of them. William W. Hinckley, president of the American Youth Congress, states that his organization will continue to battle for the passage of the American Youth Act

Church Ladies Honor

College Girls With Tea

The college girls were pleasantly entertained Sunday afternoon. October 3, when the Women's Council of the Brethern church entertained with a tea In the church parlors.

Vera Heckman met the guests and introduced them to Mrs. S. P. Crumpacker, a member of the Women's Council. Several ladies of the community were there to meet the girls

Music for the afternoon was furnished by Jack Dubois, pianist; a male quartet consisting of Harold Beam, Dr. Slifer, Delbert Barley and Chris Johansen, Junita Christensen sang several solos accompanied by Mrs. Chris Johansen.

Those who attended the tea reported an exceptionally delightful afternoon. The friendliness, and hospi-

tality of the church laries and the lovely music was extremaly enjoyed and appreciated.

Who’s Who Honors M. C. (Continued from Page One)

Each year the Football Rules Committee meets and formulates new rules for the next season. The following rule changes apply to the 1937 season.

There is only one kickoff allowed. If the ball goes out of bounds. It is put on the 35-yard line and 10 yards in front of where it crossed the sidelines, whichever is more advantageous to the receivers.

Most place kickers will now boot the ball right down the middle of the field, where the opponents will station their fastest man. Coaches expect a return of the "flying wedge” system as a result of that situation.

Easiest rule to understand is the one which requires numbers on the front and back of players’ jerseys.

Pass receivers have less protection and defensive men have much freedom as long as they are attempting to intercept the pass. More injuries may be caused by persons taking advantage of the rule.

A free ball can only be kicked with the foot. A free ball which contacts other parts of the body is not considered kicking. Apparently it is all right to gain 40 yards by pushing the pigskin with the nose for that distance. If the ball is kicked in soccer fashion, then it goes to the opposing side at the point of kicking.

This rule was adopted after Larry Kelly, Yale end, kicked the ball as in soccer to the Navy 3-yard line in position for a deciding scorn.

New Inventions are going to change most everything, including types of home recreation and conveniences, he said. Radio and television, talking books and wireless, which makes it possible to print newspapers in the home, are only a few.

"Electricity will multiply the home conviences which now are measured in the thousands," he said, "It has already transferred one in-dustry from the factory to the home, namely the manufacture of ice. Successful competition may arise for away-from-the-home activities, such as window shopping, club life motion pictures, etc."

Inventions affecting the construction of houses will tend to make the houses more attractive as living places, while the trailer will change the nature of the summer and winter vacation dwellings.

"New industries will develop based on television, alloys, the photo-elect-ric cell, plastics, pre-fabrication of dwellings, photography, air conditioning, talking books, artificial food products, steep flight aircraft, tray agriculture and synthetic fibres." he continued.

Nationalism will be furthered by the use of radio television and photography as propaganda vehicles. Synthetic products to take the place of materials formerly imported will foster high tariffs and increased nationalism also

Students and Faculty Members Are Invited To Attend Night of Fun

Tomorrow night is play night! Everyone, including students and faculty members, are invited to come to the athletic field at 6:15.p. m. for an evening of fun and entertain-ment.

All who come are urged to participate in as many forms of recreation as possible. Play night can be a success only if everyone takes part in all the games that are provided. Play each game for several minutes: and then move on to another. Participation is desired of everyone.

Archery, the feature attraction, will begin at 6:15. Following the archery exhibition everyone will be free to play any of the games that are provided softball, volley ball, tether ball, ping pong, and horse-shoes will be available. Later the entire group will join in a period of group singing and quadrilles.

Many students do not have an opportunity for recreation during the week, but tomorrow night everyone will not only have a chance to participate in several sports, but also to learn some new ones. Come to the athletic field tomorrow night for an evening of games at the all-college play night.

Introductive Forms

A program on introductions was carried out in Women’s Council discussion group. Tuesday evening, October 5.

. Vera Heckman gave a short talk on the correct forms of introductions and pointed out some helpful "do’s” and "don'ts". For the rest of the program Rosalie Fields conducted a true-false test on introductions. Slips of paper were given to various girls with names of either man or woman and different forms of introductions were demonstrated with the rest of the group offering suggestions.

Four main rules to remember in introductions were emphasized. Always introduce a gentleman to a lady, an unmarried lady to a married lady, a younger man to an older man, and a child to an older person

The first quarter was a toss-up between both teams gaining almost the same yardage and displaying

equal power. However Logan. Hastings fullback, and McLaughlin, quarterback, riddled the McPherson defense to cross the goal line three times in the second quarter, which ended 20-0 in favor of Coach Mc-crady’s crew.

• Regaining lost power, the Bulldogs temporarily halted Hastings and put on an offensive show of their own. Passes from Keck to Robertson and off-tackle smashes were especially effective.

Soon the Broncos bucked again, though, and with the aid of Hopp. halfback, and Atkins, pass snatching end, they amassed thirteen more points before the final whistle blew. Final score: Hastings. 33: McPherson. 0.

FORWARD PASSES ( By the Colonel)

Hastings Hangover—

With an enrollment of 480, Hastings College is the largest liberal arts college in Nebraska. . . . Coach McCrady. Hastings mentor. Is a graduate of the school.....McPherson

was the first home opponent of the Broncos, who have one of the beat blue grass fields in this section of the country. . . . They were defeated by Augustana College. Sioux Falls. South Dakota, one week before the Canines met them. . . . "Bill" Cody our bus driver, enjoyed the Jaunt as much as did the players. . . . Magazines, story telling, and football gossip were some of the forms of recreation. . . . Souvenirs from hotels and restaurants loaded the bus on the return trip . Some of the frosh had to carry the bags of upperclassmen because they did not entertain the group on the road to Hastings. . . . Afterthoughts—

Keep boosting the Bulldogs even though they have been snowed under a couple of times. Those Nebraska teams are out of our class and are only expensive, good experience. Why not play teams such as Southwestern. St. Benedicts. Emporia Teachers, and more familiar schools for the experience? Evidence that the team is in better condition: no serious injuries in the Hastings affair.

Pigskin Personals—

We understand Wesley DeCoursey consumed one whole loaf of broad at one sitting recently.

Irvin Keck and Bob Seidel of the football squad enjoyed a long hike (with a few hitches) in Southern Nebraska and Northern Kansas over the week end.

Jim Milne, former Nebraska all-Big Six end and professional gridster with the Memphis Tigers, helped Coach Astle during the week by working with the ends, tackles, and wing-backs. He is a salesman for the American Products Company and was in McPherson at this time.

Tinkling the ivories for the football players is Lee Kraus, guard from Pretty Prairie.

Harold Redinger, tackle from Olathe, was cut on the forehead by a coke bottle during football practice. The battle slipped from Herb Stauffer's hand. That is one method of appearing industrious,

Conference Chatter-

Radio station. KSAL. Salina will broadcast a play-by-play description of the McPherson-Kansas Wesleyan grudge battle there on Turkey Day.

Beginning the 1937 Kansas conference season the Bulldogs meet the Ottawa Braves and College of Emporia battles Baker at Baldwin tonight. The Haskell Indiana will go on the warpath to Salina tonight for a non-conference tussle with Kansas Wesleyan.

After Ottawa comes the 3 ’s. Baker. Bethel, and Bethany, as McPherson opponents. All four are enough for one season.

Pep Cork Bursts Forth

The cork popped out. and all the pep and energy that has been bottled up this year really burst forth during the little session on Arnold’s steps Monday night. Altho there was only a small representation of the student body, the noise was heard several blocks away.

Yells, songs, impromptu pep talks, and suggestions for arousing enthusiasm, and best of all was the discovery of a new cheerleader and songster, who thus far has been unnoticed..

That pep rally just goes to show what can be done, if and when the students are in the notion. Let's display our pep and support of the Bulldogs more frequently!

Here are some suggestions brought out at the pup chapel Thursday night and at that special session Monday night:

1. You observed how the football boys stood up when a player canto off the field. Let the student body follow example.

2. When the cheer-leaders announce a yell, pop up off that seat and stretch those vocal chords.

3. When a good play is made, acknowledge it.
