The  Ravelings 


Shad  Reed -Editor  Don  Johnsiin-Bus.  M. 


WE  DEDICATE 


Any  words  that  we  might  use  to  characterize  Dr.  Owen  seem 
somehow  insignificant,  for  he  is  not  only  a  great  teacher,  but  also 
a  very  great  man.  While  teaching  English  to  Monmouth  students, 
he  inserts  into  his  courses  a  basis  for  a  way  of  life.  Perhaps  the 
only  thing  we  can  say  is  "Thank  you,  Dr.  Owen,  for  the  privilege 
of  studying  under  you."

FEITURES 


when  you  turn  to  this,  the  feature  section, 
we  want  you  to  remember  ....  Monmouth, 
1949  ....  the  rush  of  registration  ....  meeting 
old  and  new  friends  on  the  Walkout  ....  the 
shriek  of  the  whistle  calling  us  to  class  .... 
Polescrap  ....  spring  and  fall  dances  ....  coffee 
in  the  Union  ....  Knox  games  ....  chapel 
every  morning  ....  cutting  classes  in  the  spring 
....  a  year  of  memories  ....  Monmouth  .... 
1949  .... 


Moumoiith  is  justly  proud  of  her  science  department,  for  it  is 
here  that  men  and  women  are  trained  to  help  make  a  better  world. 


"Let's  have  a  cup  of  coffee"  ....  easily  the  most  popular  phrase 
heard  about  campus.  How  many  hours  we  spend  hi  the  Union 
each  day'. 


Through    knowledge   and    understanding    ive    become    better 
fitted  for  life,  both  now  and  in  preparation  for  ficture  years. 


Recreation  is  an  important  part  of  our  life  at  Munnioiith,  for 
here  ivc  have  found  friendships  ithicb  will  continue  throughout 
our  entire  liies. 


WALKOUT    .... 

The  Walkout  is  a  tradition  at  Monmouth.  Sponsored  by  the  "Y", 
it  helps  the  freshmen  become  acquainted  both  with  members  of  their  own 
class  and  the  upperclassmen. 


[18] 


POLESCRAP    .... 

The  annual  Polescrap,  between  the  freshman  boys  and  sophomore  men, 
occurs  one  day  in  the  early  fall.  Bruises  and  mud  bring  back  memories 
of  the  conflict. 


[19] 


HOMECOMING    .... 

The  Suburban  leads  the  Homecoming  parade.  Stunt  Night, 
football  games,  return  of  the  Clan,  and  the  gay  dance  are  all  part 
of  Homecoming. 


[20] 


CANDLELIGHT  SERVICE     .... 

Another  Monmouth  tradition  is  the  Christmas  Candlehght 
Service.  Singing  carols  of  many  lands,  the  choir  gives  us  another 
memory  of  college  life. 


[21] 


MESSIAH    .... 

Under  the  direction  of  Mr.  Hayes,  the  annual  presentation 
of  the  Messiah  achieved  a  new  high.  A  special  attraction  was 
presented  by  the  performances  of  the  four  guest  soloists. 


[22] 


THIS  IS  IT    ...    . 

Unquestionably  the  most  popular  event  of  the  year  is  Gracie's 
show.  Guys  and  gals  work  together  to  put  on  a  truly  profes- 
sional production. 


[23] 


THE  OCTOPUS  CLUB 


The  Octopus,  senior  men's  honorary  society,  was  founded  in  the 
spring  of  1927  by  a  group  of  seniors  who  saw  the  need  of  an  organiza- 
tion to  bind  together  in  harmony  the  various  groups  on  the  campus,  and 
to  thus  carry  on,  as  a  unit,  the  traditions  and  ambitions  of  Monmouth 
College. 

Banned  from  the  campus  in  1942  by  a  college  order  that  forbade 
all  secret  organizations,  the  Octopus  was  reorganized  and  readmitted  to 
campus  recognition  this  year. 

The  eight  seniors  who  comprise  the  Octopus  are  selected  late  in  the 
spring  of  their  junior  year  by  members  of  the  preceding  class.  The 
selection  is  based  upon  campus  activities  and  contributions  to  campus 
life.  The  identity  of  members  of  the  Octopus,  by  tradition,  is  revealed 
in  the  Ravelings  that  is  published  just  prior  to  their  graduation. 

A  scholarship  fund  to  aid  deserving  underclassmen  has  been  estab- 
lished this  year.  The  award,  in  the  amount  of  ^150,  will  be  announced 
annually  at  the  time  of  Commencement.  The  fund  is  provided  by  active 
and  alumni  members,  who  presently  number  175. 

Members  of  the  Octopus  for  the  past  year  were :  John  Goggin, 
Frank  Testa,  Don  Tezalc,  Burrell  Calhoun,  Harold  Poling,  Don  White- 
man,  Don  Johnson,  and  Tony  Palese. 

Professor  Howard  Jamieson  is  the  faculty  advisor  for  the  group.

This  group  meets  once  a  month  with  the  purpose  of  settling  the  differences,  if 
any,  which  may  arise  between  the  men's  organizations  on  campus.  Two  men  from 
each  of  the  four  organizations  are  chosen  to  serve  on  the  council.  Unlike  previous

versary on  January  10,  with  its  "Golden  Jubilee"  celebration  which  signified  fifty 
years  of  Tkedom.  The  big  white  house  on  Broadway  was  the  scene  of  the  annual 
pig  roast  in  the  fall,  and  festive  open  houses  during  the  year.

sponsors  a  Scholarship  Day,  when  the  juniors  and  seniors  who  have  met  the  high 
requirements  are  invited  into  the  society.  The  organization  also  gives  a  banquet  for 
freshmen,  in  the  spring.  These  are  both  impressive  occasions,  yet  they  are  often 
equaled  in  the  memories  of  members  by  a  less  formal  picture  of  afternoons,  after 
initiation,  at  Dr.  Owens' — talking  and  eating  Mrs.  Owens'  cookies.

stimulate  biological  research.  Membership  is  divided  into  active  and  provisional 
membership.  Prospective  active  members  must  be  provisional  members  for  one  year, 
and  must  undertake  a  project.  It  is  generally,  then,  the  programs  in  conjunction  with 
these  projects  that  make  up  the  program  at  the  regular  meetings  of  the  group.

ZETA  KAPPA  EPSILfll 


Our  local  history  society,  ZKE,  became  "past  history"  at  Monmouth  on  Decem- 
ber 9th,  1948,  when  it  was  replaced  by  the  installation  of  Beta  F'hi  chapter  of  Phi 
Alpha  Theta,  the  national  honorary  history  fraternity.  ZKE  was  formed  in  1941, 
and  it  dedicated  itself  to  the  common  interest  of  its  members — the  broad  and  ex- 
haustive study  in  historical  research.  The  local  group  felt  itself  fortunate  in  obtaining 
Phi  Alpha  Theta's  charter,  with  membership  substantially  the  same.

RIFLE  CLVB 


The  Rifle  Club  is  divided  into  two  parts — the  men's  and  the  women's  divisions. 
Each  engages  in  inter-school  matches,  and  each  enters  the  National  Collegiate  Rifle 
Tournament,  in  the  spring.  The  teams  try  to  have  at  least  one  away  from  home  trip, 
and  one  or  two  matches  here.  Two  of  these  matches  are  usually  with  Knox  College. 
The  Rifle  Club  has  been  handicapped  in  recent  years  by  the  lack  of  students  suf- 
ficiently interested  in  the  organization.

As  usual,  the  Oracle  was  the  favorite  publication  this  year.  Under  the  more 
than  capable  editorship  of  Ed  Brown,  the  Oracle's  popularity  reached  an  all-time 
high.  Ed  and  his  staff  did  the  proverbial  sweating  of  blood  to  meet  their  deadlines, 
but  the  rush  to  Wallace  Hall  each  Saturday  testified  to  the  fact  that  the  finished 
product  was  worth  their  effort.  Not  many  students  noticed  the  change  in  size  of  the 
paper  which  added  a  column  on  each  page.    Did  you?

this  group,  approximately  half  are  chosen  for  Monmouth's  Tour  Choir.  This  smaller 
group,  chosen  for  voice,  musicianship,  and  cooperation,  consists  of  about  thirty-two 
voices,  and  entertains  in  Illinois  and  Iowa,  throughout  the  spring  vacation,  and  later 
several  weekends.

STIDMT  BODY  OFFICERS 


Black,  Whiteman,  Wickstrom,  Testa 


Furthering  student  government  was  the  big  job  of  our  four  student  body  officers 
this  year.  President  Don  Whiteman,  Vice-President  Burney  Wickstrom,  Secretary 
Jo  Black,  and  Treasurer  Frank  Testa  accomphshed  many  things  during  this  term  of 
office — not  the  least  of  which  was  the  skating  party  for  the  entire  student  body  that 
frosty  January  evening.  Possibly  some  of  their  work  was  more  important,  but  none 
so  popular. 


[76] 


STllDEIT  COURT 


The  five  people  pictured  below  have  had  the  most  thankless  task  in  Monmouth 
College  during  the  past  year.  Their  job  Vk'as  to  judge  the  students,  deciding  whether 
or  not  they  were  guilty  of  dishonesty  during  examinations.  This  is  an  integral  part  of 
our  student  government,  and  worthy  of  much  praise,  although  the  group  received 
httle  publicity.

The  Student-Faculty  Committee  brings  the  faculty  and  students  of  Monmouth 
College  together,  so  that  each  may  see  more  clearly  the  viewpoint  of  the  other,  thus 
promoting  cooperation  on  the  campus.  This  group  takes  action  on  any  problems 
which  are  brought  up  in  Student  Council  which  may  affect  the  college  as  a  whole. 


[78] 


STiiiiEiT  mmi 


Practical  experience  in  democracy  is  given  to  the  students  by  the  processes  of  the 
Student  Council,  for  college  governmnt  is  in  the  capable  hands  of  these  people.  Any 
broad  change  in  the  rules  is  usually  suggested  by  the  Council  and  then  presented  to 
the  student  body  for  acceptance  or  rejection.  As  in  the  past,  this  year  it  has  tried  to 
emphasize  the  importance  of  honesty  on  our  campus.

The  Monmouth  College  Band,  under  Mr.  Loya,  serves  the  college  in  a  dual 
role.  It  is  both  a  service  and  a  concert  band.  The  organization  begins  life  in  the 
fall,  during  the  football  season,  when  it  serves  as  a  marching  band;  it  continues 
through  the  winter,  during  the  basketball  season,  when  it  becomes  a  pep  band;  and  in 
the  spring  its  metamorphosis  is  completed  as  it  emerges  to  give  a  series  of  six  indoor 
and  outdoor  concerts. 


[83] 


ORCHESTRA 


Under  Mr.  Loya,  the  Monmouth  College  Orchestra  keeps  alive  symphonic 
music  on  the  campus.  The  orchestra  gives  two  concerts  annually,  provides  the 
orchestral  accompaniment  for  Handel's  Messiah,  given  at  Christmas,  and  also  for 
the  Spring  Oratorio — Mendelssohn's  St.  Paul,  this  year.  The  organization  also 
provides  an  outlet  for  ensembles.  Two  string  and  one  woodwind  group  is  now 
practicing. 


[84] 


MUm  CLIB 


The  Nerdom  Club  is  a  newcomer  on  Monmouth  Campus.  Ten  girls  who  were 
interested  in  modern  dance  and  felt  there  was  a  need  and  a  place  for  it  at  Monmouth 
formed  a  club  to  further  this  activity.  The  purpose  of  the  club  is  to  instill  a  greater 
appreciation  of  the  art  in  the  layman.  Membership  is  open  to  any  girl  who  can  pass 
the  test  given  by  the  charter  members.

charge  of  the  concessions  at  the  games.  Another  of  the  chief  interests  of  the  group 
is  the  raising  of  money  for  a  new  stadium.  As  is  their  custom,  they  again  put  on  a

shouted  and  raved  for  additional  scores.  Knox  was  roundly  trounced  twice  as  the 
local  "bucket  brigade"  went  to  work.  M.  C,  The  Ravehngs,  and  the  sports  staff 
proudly  doff  their  caps  to  the  team  with  the  new  scoring  record.

Flashing  spikes,  torn  tendons,  split  fingers,  crack  of  the  bats  on  a  warm  spring 
evening — that's  baseball.  Monmouth  had  its  baseball  and  Monmouth's  baseball 
had  it.  In  spite  of  the  availability  of  potential  big  leaguers,  our  squad  just  didn't 
manage  to  squeeze  out  their  share  of  victories  last  spring.  But  in  spite  of  the  ledger, 
the  fans  received  all  of  the  diamond  excitement  they  could  ask  for,  even  at  Yankee 
Stadium.

The  flying  feet  of  Monmouth  pushed  the  Red  and  White  into  the  national  eye 
last  year.  Despite  the  above  record  our  cinder  eaters  placed  fourth  in  the  Midwest 
Meet  and  eighth  in  the  Beloit  Relays.  Paced  by  the  record-holding  relay  team  and 
several  point-getters,  it  was  a  good  season.  At  the  end  of  May  and  well  into  June 
several  of  the  boys  entered  varied  national  meets  and  placed  highly  in  their  fields.  Big 
Jud  Kreideneir  raced  to  sixth  place  in  the  Milwaukee  Olympic  tryouts  as  he  hurdled 
in  behind  Dillard,  Scott,  and  Porter.  We  have  our  greats  here  as  well  as  anywhere —

One  of  Monmouth's  more  thankless  positions  is  that  which  is 
held  by  Mr.  Kenneth  Craig,  superintendent  of  the  grounds.  Few 
students  realize  how  many  things  could  go  wrong  if  Mr.  Craig 
weren't  on  the  job.  We  of  the  Ravelings  staff,  in  behalf  of  the 
entire  student  body,  would  like  to  express  our  appreciation  for  the 
fine  work  that  Mr.  Craig  is  doing.

And  so  we  write  fini  to  another  year  and  another  Ravelings  .  .  . 
Perhaps  this  isn't  one  of  the  better  books  published  by  the  students 
of  Monmouth  College,  but  I  have  made  a  very  sincere  effort  to 
present  a  panoramic  version  of  Monmouth,  1949. 

I  want  to  thank  each  and  every  one  of  you  for  the  help  you 
have  given  me,  and  in  particular  I  wish  to  express  my  appreciation 
for  the  fine  work  done  by  my  sports  editors.  Bill  Lynch  and  Buck 
Buchanan,  and  for  the  cooperation  I  have  received  from  Dave 
Fleming,  the  advisor. 

Like  Thomas  Edison,  I  now  know  ten  thousand  things  not  to 
do  while  publishing  a  yearbook,  but  learning  has  been  fun.  I  hope 
you  find  as  much  pleasure  in  reading  the  Ravelings  as  I  had  putting 
it  out.
