dedication

Because all wads lead to, and all tliinking persons arc turning toward
McKendrcc College, we attempt to a:^sign due respect to those who luue given
ol themscKes so heely that this institution may thrixc. In doing so we realize
lull) the dilficulty in attempting to single out any one person.

There is one, however, who seems to epitomize the \'ery essence ol decency,
progressiveness, scholarliness, and above all amiability; a man who has proved
to be a friend and counselor rather than merely an administrator. He has placed
his office and his abilities at the disposal of those who might need help; his
education and his understanding have guided many students.

To this man, this line personality, to Dean Le\yis B. \'an\Vinkle, the 1950
iMcKendrean Staff proudly, vet humbly, dedicates this book.

in I lomcxoniing by gi\'ing a Formal piogram. The
promise of the talent displayed in that program has
yielded satisfying results and has contributed much
to the success of McKcndree these years. After such
a glorious start, we were sure that we must be the
outstanding class of the Century.

As sophomores we \\ere forging steadily ahead.
We wondered why the Freshmen c\'er thought thev
might get awj^y with their picnic. We made short
work of their plans— after long searching— with a
bonfire and wiener-roast in the parking lot. That
was the year "Bo Bracy" came to the hobo convention
appropriately dressed in a T-shirt and bow-tie under
his neat black dress suit. That year our candidate,
Ella Jones, was elected Homecoming Queen. Sadie
Hawkins Day was quite an affair and the race was
full of excitement. Several poor males were caught
in spite of the fact that there was a great deal of
confusion involved, not the least of which was
tree-sitting! The year flew by quickly. So many things
were happening: our basketball season, stunt show.
May Day, Commencement!

We came back as Juniors feeling that we had
learned a lot but realizing that there was so much
we yet lacked. It was a good year. We saw our football
team score on the field. We won the first game in
years. Quite a celebration followed this victory over
Chillicothe v\'hich gave our spirits a great lift. Our
basketball team really forged ahead with victories
galore and a very marked improvement over previous
years. The days passed with the usual round of
classes, labs, tests and exams. We gave the Senior
class a banquet. At the end of the year, with great

jnv and a little bit (

is tlu' most unusual. Our

cl.iss is \xr\ proud ot the man\- outstanding football
plaxois who, we feel sure, made this season the
most successful in years. We won three of our games.
I lomeeoming was just about as perfect as we could
isk: Hobo Day, the beautiful coronation, freshman

program

)tball \ictory over Chillicothe,

alumni banquet, and the homecoming play. After
these fatiguing acti\'ities e\'erybody was ready to settle
down to routine happenings for a while! Instead,
some of the most exciting times of the year followed,
especially nights, as the Carnegie Hall inmates will
testify. We got painted up several times by Shurtleff,
not to mention the times Shurtleff got the same from
us. After many days and nights the whole thing was
climaxed by an episode that caused thirteen Shurtleff
men to lose their hair— not from worry but from the
skillful use of scissors plied by McKendree students
and the Dean. Following this there came leaf-raking
day and that memorable board meeting at which
Dr. Russell Grow was elected to succeed Dr. Bracy
as our president. We chose as the leaders of our
class, Darrell Sample, president; Benjamin Anderson,
vice-president; and Mari<in Ruth, secretary-treasurer.
The years spent at McKendree have been some
of the happiest and most profitable we have e.x-
pcrienced. We will iu\ er forget the experiences that
we ha\e had and the friends we have made on
the "Old Hill". Grateful for \vhat McK has meant
to us, we look forward to the future with great hopes
both for our class and for our /\lma Alater.

After three years on the Olc

wc are proud

to say that our class is still ad\ancing in the p
of success and distinction. Although wc are the
class, our loyalty stands at its peak. The rank
of seniorship and authority has been justlv earned bv
our group.

As we look back to our freshman year, our memories
are a haze of initiation, green caps, and an unsuccessful
but \ery enjoyable picnic. We contributed our share
to the I lomecoming activities by our loyal support
to our queen candidate and displaying our talents in
the Formal Freshman Program. Our class showed
foresight by sponsoring Sadie Hawkins' Week, which
was very successful. By engaging in all acti\itics our
freshman class not only felt the influence oi Mc
Kcndree, but left their mark upon the school.

As sophomores we viewed life with a highly superior
attitude that comes from having our freshman year
behind us. Our most outstanding memor\' is the 1 lome-
cotning election in which our candidate, I lelen
O'l lara, was chosen football queen. Not to be forgotten
is our extensive campaign \A'hieh included the barber-
shop rendition of "Sweet f lelen O'Hara," and De\\e\ 's
spectacular bie\'cle ride throu'^h the chapel. The
friends, the fun and the lell<.\\ship that we had

Ha\ing been here sueh a sliort time, the sophomore
elass has done well. W'e ha\e been represented in all
tields: sports, music, dramatics, and anything that
came our way.

The close ol: this school year brings our class to
a significant milestone along the road to higher
education; we have reached the half-way mark. Al-
though many changes have taken place amonw
our ranks, we ha\'e come to realize how quickly two
years can pass. Many friendships formed here on the
Old ffill may well prove to be lifelong.

Our first year proved to be a memorable one. We
wore our green caps and bowed respectfully to upper-
classmen, but secretly felt exalted because of our
picnic and its great climax— the rinoino of the chapel
bell.

Our class decided to "shine" in sports this vcar.
Many of our fellows worked long and hard playing
football and basketball, and participating in track
e\ents. Bill Chaney was selected for a position on the
Pioneer All-Conference second football team, giving
honor to the sophomores. Other sophomore football
boys were Ron Herrin, Cloyce Burns, Harold "Mouse"
Davis, Marino Garcia, Art Hartman, Jack Frost,
I larold Zeeb, and Eddie Biznek.

McKendree had a wonderful basketball season, and
the sophomore class was represented by Ron Herrin,

Next in line lor the sophomores to "shine" in was

music. When the chorus presented "The Messiah,"
the sophomore class contributed tour vocal soloists:
Lester Dewhirst, tenor; Joy Luman, soprano; Ruth
/Klthoff, soprano; and Daphenc Coston, contralto. June
Ilender was the \'iolin soloist.

When Miss \i\ian IJuiton iliavtc'cl tlie Home-

with sophomore students. Earl Stover and Evelyn

to\vn drunk, Simon Stimson; and Nhirii'em Ste\'ens,

Din.ih I anner, anti (ilen I'isher had supporting roles.

Conv'cntion, too. Quite a tew sophomore "hums" came
dressed eomieally and appropriately. I lie I loho kinw

was none other than Cloyee Burns.

A lovely trio composed ol June lU'nder, Daphene

Mare," beautifully in true "hum" st\'le. In addition
to these talented hohos, we had Pat Hnsley, Mariaem
Stevens, Vi Corday, Elsie Crisp, and joAnn Simpson
attending the meeting.

Our Homecoming float was an original horse-drawn
wagon, with "An Old Fashioned Hayride." 1 he
students were dressed as old fashioned people on a
hayride.

Many sophomores gained honors during the war
in various events. June Render won first pri/e in ilie
Amanda Glenn Declamation contest.

Ann tinslcN r
prize in the

jeixed vari.ais honors. She won

We might stop to recognize the niar\elous wit of
a humorous sophomore, Elsie Crisp. Whenever sly
humor or wit is needed, Elsie is the one to see. Her
current events at the Clio open session won't be
torgotten for a long time. Her sly comment about her
ne.xt-door neighbors going crazy about the Old South
— Totten and Chicken, that is, is just one of the man\
that gal knoxxs!

A boucjuet could be gi\en here to the cheer-leader
captain, June Render. Junie did a swell job to keep
the spirit high and to cheer the team on to \ ictorx
at both the basketball and the football games.

"Digger" is cjuite self-evident. No one but an under-
taker would fit the adjective. "Mule Train" or "Bullet"

re^nmen

Rcgistratiiin last tall saw a new crop of freshmen
enrolling at old McKendree. From that group of
green youngsters will emerge, in a tew years, the
Finished product of McKendree's training— tlie class
of '53.

Now approaching the end of our first year at
McKendree, we freshmen feel we are a part of the
school, but still fresh in our memories are the days
of our early life here. We remember the bewildering
experience of our first registration, with the many
lorms to fill out, schedules to plan, and books to
buy. We remember the various extracurricular activities
enumerated and explained during the orientation
period. And, too, we remember freshman initiation.
I here was the unhappy experience of freshman party
night, with the games of hide and seek and the
dashes through the rain. There was the charming
spectacle presented to all by the freshman girls during
freshman week, the chance we all had to display
our talents at "odd" jobs, and the generous assistance
of the upper classmen in helping us to develop our
leg muscles. Ralph Haves was undisputed champion
walker, but I am sure no one claims to have made
more beds than Wayne Waggoner.

Still under the burden of initiation, we freshmen
\\ere put to work to help make the 1949 Homecoming

celebration a success. Our biggest contribution to the
I lomeconiing aftairs was the Freshman Formal Pro-
gram, in which the varied talents of our class were
clis|ila\ ccl to line advantage under the capable guidance
ol our class president, ^r,a\ Porter. The elTorts ol

all perlorniers were richK' repaid, as were those oF
the campaigners ("She swims in ponds") because our
own lovely candidate, Martha Rieman, was crowncil
t|uecn of the 1949 Homecoming Festivities.

Because McKcndree won the I lomeconiing loolball

game, we freshmen rooted long and loud, because this
\'ictory enabled us to really ha\'e a "beanie roast."
Our feeling of a job well done continued through
the concluding event of the Homecoming weekend,
the plav Our Tcnvu. With loan Hall and h'an Lewis

in leading roles, and other freshmen contributing
hea\'il\- to the success of Our town, the class of '53
felt great satisfaction in the production of this out-
standing play.

life, which is always interesting, and occasionalh'
exciting. I he contrihiitions and intliience ol the

various members oF our class will continue to be lelt
on the Old Hill in the years to come. We are facing
the future with great anticipation of what we can

With the theme of "The Forty-Nmers" carried out through all events, several new features
were added to provide a festive weekend. One of the big features was the float parade
preceding the NIcKendree-Chillicothe gridiron tilt. An 80-piece band led a procession
of skillfully decorated floats. Ideal weather pro\'ided a perfect setting for this twcnty-

Z)ke McKendree Story. 49-50

Dear Boss,

/\nytimc \uii ha\c any more stories you want clone like this one, let me know. You'll
ha\e a willing \olunteer. Don't know when I've had so much lun. Here's what happened:

<^epteiflber it all started on Labor Day. 1 hat's when the new students started
arri\ing. The older ones eame in later in the week. E\erybodv v\'as busy getting settled
that first week, besides getting aequainted.

It didn't take long to find out who the upperelassmen were, lor the\ had a gleam in
th.ir eyes as they talked about freshman initiation that would come up sooner or later.
Talk about people sweating, those freshmen thought they were really in for it. When
initiation came, with green beanies and special rules for the freshies, it wasn't as bad as
they'd expected. Honest, boss, I don't know when I've seen a lunnier sight than when
those freshmen women from Clark Hall were initiated. Hair-dos, so-called hats, and
stunts out of this world. What a mess they were! Both the boys and the girls were taken
on midnight strolls far-far out in the country— a so-called "introductory" tour.

X^'hile this was going on, studies were commencing, and the chief guessing game was
trying to name the new president. The older students hated to .see Dr. Bracy lea\e.
About this time also some anonymous donor ga\e the college S25,000 for aiding
theological students attending McKendree.

Coach Barclay was working his football squad into shape, and the moans current on
the campus came from Carnegie Hall where men wished thev had kept in shape during
the vacation. The Bearcats lost their opener to Rose Polv 14-6. but it \\.:s a close game.

As the year was getting started. Religious Emphasis Week was obscr\ed on the campus,
with Re\'. Hoo\'er Rupert as speaker.

L/Ctober l thought things would slow up on the campus come October. Was I
surprised! First of all they had a quartet in here that rocked the place v^ith a special
version of "Li'l Liza Jane." Then football fever really swept the place. There were
victories and losses, and many sleepless nights after some Illinois college Bluj Boys tried
to whitewash the place. The freshmen cleaned it up, naturally.

Then came all the preparation for homecoming. And what a homecoming! Ihe whole
place was decked out in colorful decorations, with a big parade before the football game
on Saturday afternoon. Hobo Day had been good, the freshmen had crowned their
queen in lavish ceremony, and the parade attracted the whole town's attention. What
left c^■ervone cheering was the Bearcat victory o\'er Chillicothe on the gridiron. A bain|uet
and the presentation of "Our Town" to a packed house ended a big weekend.

Shurtleff was ne.xt up on the Bearcat schedule, and they were trying to upset the
Bearcat homecoming with night raiders. First one guy by the name of Wayne was caught
and shaved, after McKendree returned the favor of paint. Then, 13 others were captured
and shaved before a student assembly at 4 a.m. in the gymnasium. What a time! It got
Shurtleff so riled up thev beat McK 26-13 in a fighting comeback.

The freshmen hung up their beanies after the Chillicothe victorv. 1 he\' didn't succeed
in having their party, though. Rain caused one dela\, with the upperelassmen breaking
up the partv on the Bagg farm the ne.xt night. You ne\er saw people run around like
these jieople did tr\'ing to find the partv.

J^OVemuer Sadie Hawkins Day and Leaf Raking Dav saw students stretching
some new muscles. Rumors and guessing were ended when the boaril met and named
Dr. Russell Grow as president of McKendree. Six people were seen to reach the bursting
point as their pride swelled on being named to Who's Who.

The Bearcats brought down the curtain on the football season with a 13-to-7 \ictorv
(ner Eureka for the first Pioneer conference victory of any sort in three vears for Mc-
K"ndree. They talked for weeks here about two touchdowns, each 50 yards, on three
plavs. Those boys sang like a cage of canaries on the wav home that night.

Coach Bill Mauzv trotted his basketball squad out on the coint f\>r the first time on
November 28, and started nut a whiz-bang season with a lot of talent, including man\'
freshmen.

oU€C€tflber a few people found time to study here, while others reliearsed and
presented the "Messiah" as the eollege's annual yuletide choral presentation. The Bearcats
were still winning games as Christmas \acation came around, a chance for exervone to
take five and start breathing again.

J-CiniKll'^ 1 his is one of those strange places, boss, where people were realK-
glad to get back from vacation. '1 hey said they missed the place. Some came back with
resolutions to start studying this year, but that passed fast, especially after the second
semester got started and the verdict from first semester was forgotten.

There was a new family in the little White House, known as The Ste\'enson I louse,
and the president's office was again occupied. An expansive night program was started
on the campus, and for awhile it looked as if Scott Air Base were taking over.

The Bearcats hit a weak spell at the turn of semesters, but came back to the \ ictor\
path by beating Principia in a special benefit game. On January 7 at Blackburn, a record
fell as McKendree won 87-66, a new all-time game high at McK.

Jeoruar^ The students were exposed to a bit of culture as Clerard Willem Van
Loon \isited the campus. Gifts of slightly more than S 10,000 were announced, and campus
impro\ements were speeded up.

Basketball kept the limelight as the team racked up tuo Pioneer \ ictories. Bobbv 1 cc
had set a new scoring mark of 36 points, only to have another Mt. Vernonitc, |im Burnett,
come along just 12 days later and top it at 37. Coach Mauz\' resigned to take ad\'antage
of a wonderful opportunity M'ith the military government in Germany. Behind him, he
and the Bearcats left a new set of records, for they'd broken almost every one on the books.

Fourteen games were won and seven lost for the best season since 1930-31. The team's
average per game was 68 points— another high. Bobby Lee amassed 418 points for a new
indi\idual season total.

.AVdrCn John VV. Vandercook led a parade of celebrities at the second Communica-
tions U'orkshop, as high school students and teachers took over the place for a day.

With basketball out of the way, track hit the spotlight again, as McKendreans looked
forward to another successful season.

The chorus bundled up and left the campus on a tour of Illinois, Indiana, and Wis
consin. Easter vacation followed right on the heels of this, and nobod\' was ,i bit sorry
either.

CPrpi'Ll The McKendrean Stunt Show left them lying in the aisles after the Easter
\acation was oxer. Hidden talent was unco\ered all o\ er the campus for this show.

One of the big e\'ents of the year came when Dr. Grow was formally inaugurated
amidst colorful settings as the eollege's twenty-fourth president. With spring, there came
a new romantic movement on the campus, and hearts beat just a little faster as the days
became warmer.

.AVay. This final month was a busy one, but then, what one wasn't? There was
the exer-popular May Fete, the Spring concert, music recitals, and preparation for the
closing events of the year. The students crammed as e.xams neared, but fouml time to
participate in oratorical contests. The seniors were becoming philosophical arul tender as
baccalaureate, the alumni dinner, and commencement drew near. I found that I hated
to see the end come too, for something about the place seems to ha\c 'gotten into m\
veins in my stay here.

Ground was broken at commencement for the new gvmnasium-aiulirnrium. the first
new building on the campus since the library was built in 1919.

The college celebrated the Centenial of Old Main in connection with commencement,
so the place was quite a bee-hive of activity as I closed up shop and packed my duds.
Be seeing you soon, boss!
