Marathon 1929

The Marathon 1929

Theme of the Marathon.

The use o f a Greek theme fo r a college annual is especially appropriate, as much of our modern civilization is based on Greek culture. The Greek contributions, litera足 ture, art and philosophy have been a rich heritage to all succeeding civilizations. In the lines o f culture and philosophic thought the world w ill always remain debtor to this small but imaginative, artistic and creative nation.

It is especially fitting, therefore, that we, who have derived the name o f our college year book from one o f the best known and most celebrated institutions of ancient Greece, should devote its pages to this theme. Most o f the art work in the Marathon has been taken from photographs o f great statues, in the round or basrelief and from Greek paintings. The quotations found in our view section were all taken from the works o f the Greek philosophers and poets. The acanthus leaf com m only used in Greek architecture has been utilized on the cover o f our book.

The Marathon races take their name from the traditional feat o f Phidippides who carried the news o f the great victory from Marathon to Athens. They have becom e an important part o f the Olym pic games. These races may be considered as analogous to our college career, and in such a light are they treated in this Marathon.

The scrolls found throughout the opening section are suggestive o f those on which the judges recorded the results o f the races. Zeus, father o f the gods, in whose honor the races were held, is found on the faculty page. He represents the guidance and sympathetic friendship o f our facu lty, who watch over our college years. The triumph and success o f the A lum ni is personified in the statue o f the well known Nike or W inged V ictory. The idea o f attainment and the finish o f the race is brought out on the senior page.

The much coveted olive crown placed on the brow o f the victor, by the judge, meant no more to the Athenian lad than does the diplom a to the Y ork College senior. The juniors are represented by a runner nearing his goal. The set runner, just well started 011 his race, yet pressing steadily ahead, typifes the sophomores. The eagle rising from the altar was the signal given at the Marathon fo r the race to begin and is sym bolic o f the freshman starting on his college career.

The organization page carries a sketch o f Demeter, typifying social grace and ease, as she was the only woman spectator allowed to view the races. She is also sym bolic of that other phase o f the contest, for along with feats of athletic daring, the sculptor proudly exhibited the work o f his chisel, and the poet his newest poem or fancy. The games were not m erely representative o f athletic prowess, but were also concerned with philosophy, history, the drama, music and sculpture. The fam ous Discobolus is found on the athletic page and features another o f the sports indulged in at the Marathon, though perhaps less celebrated than the races. The jester is found on .th e feature page. He was an ever-present being at the games, m ingling with the spectators and bringing laughs from the crowds who gathered.

He is intended to represent the wholesome spirit o f fun that exists at Y ork College.

The friendly sympathy and kindly word and smile of President Overm iller have done much to increase, the spirit ol g ood will and cooperation existing among students and fac­ ulty, and his presence is making York College a better and a happier place for those who mingle in its halls.

Dean Charles Bisset

was

called

to

the

chair of History and Social Sciences o f York College in 1913, and is still serving faith­ fu lly and well in this position. In connec­ tion with this work he served as registrar until 1926 when he was made dean o f the institution. In this capacity he has won the added confidence and respect of the students, who find in him a capable and sympathetic adviser.

Dean Bissel holds an enviable place in the' hearts o f the students o f the college, and also remains a true and loyal friend to a host of York College alumni and form er students, in whom his interest never dies.

A Tribute to O ur Faculty.

Y ork College is fortunate in the fine group o f men and women who com pose the faculty. They are characterized by their high scholarship, their loyalty to the college, their personal interest in the progress o f their students, and their splendid Christian example. Their kindly and sympathetic attitude has endeared them to all the student body.

As we go forth from our college halls we shall be better men and women because we have com e under their wholesome and uplifting influence. They have shown a genuine interest in us during our college days, and we have reason to believe that they w ill continue to be interested as we go out into the world and achieve success in our various fields o f activity. Let us not forget them and their contribution to our success.

T he Student Council.

On every campus there arises a nesd fo r closer cooperation between the student body and the faculty. The bond o f fellow ship between the students and faculty of Y ork College has always been strong, but it has been further strengthened this year by the establishment o f a Student Council.

The council is com posed o f twelve members, representing the follow in g groups: seniors, juniors, sophom ores, freshmen, Conservatory, Business College, Zeta, Pals, Christian Associations, “ Y ” Club and W . A. A., and the faculty. In addition to these representatives, there is a president who is chosen from the senior class and elected by the student body.

The Student Council w ill handle matters concerning extra-curricular activities, the division o f duties between the Panther Club and the Council, and arbitration o f matters between the various organizations and classes. They w ill also enact regula­ tions concerning the government o f the student body.

A recent ruling o f the council concerns the number o f extra-curricular activities in which any one student may engage. This action suggests the important part the council is likely to play in campus affairs.

In the Student Council we have the realization o f a long-desired goal. The council will undoubtedly prove more useful as each year adds to its knowledge and experience. Let us support this organization which brings to us the privilege o f self-government, and show that we appreciate it.

The first annual ever published in 'York C ollege was sponsored by the Junior class o f 1917. The name they chose for their year book was “ The Marathon.” In connection with the christening o f the annual, they named ihe elm grove north o f the Administration Building, “ Marathon Park." In this way the name. “ Marathon,” has been handed down to us in the traditions o f the college.

The Marathon Board has had many difficulties to face in the publication o f this book, but they have striven hard to make it one o f the treasured possessions o f each and every student. T o accom plish this purpose, they have given special emphasis to a beautiful view section o f fam iliar campus scenes, a snapshot section expressing the spirit and life o f the campus, and a new type o f humor section. They have also added to the feature section a picture o f the most representative woman student and one o f the most representative man. These students were chosen hy popular vote o f the student body, and the counting board is preserving the secret o f their identity till the book is off the press. In all their work the board has been guided by the able supervision o f Miss Edith Callender who has done much to make the annual a better publication.

Y ou n g W o m e n ’s Christian Association.

The work o f the Y oung W om en’s Christian Association o f York College is per­ haps one o f the strongest influences on the campus. In addition to the helpful weekly devotional meetings, the Y. W. C. A. sponsors a number o f activities that have com e to be almost traditional.

The Big and Little Sister movement, which operates most noticeably in the fall, has proved to be the most efficient way of form ing new acquaintances, and helping the new girls to adjust themselves to college life.

Besides this most important activity, the association, along with the Young Men’s Association, sponsors the two receptions fo r the new students. The W orld Fellowship committee sponsored a Spanish Supper, the proceeds o f which went to Porto R ico to aid in the reconstruction o f the island after the tornado. Every year the associations have charge o f the May Day Fete. The funds obtained are used to help delegates to the summer Y. W . C. A. and Y.. M. C. A. conference at Estes Park.

The one great aim o f the Y. W . C. A. is to aid each girl in college to live a well-rounded life that w ill help her develop strong character. The Y. W. C. A. states its purpose as fo llo w s: W e, the members o f the Y oung W om en’s Christian Association o f York College, unite in the desire to realize fu ll and creative life through a growing knowledge o f God. W e determine to have a part in making this life possible fo r all people. In this task we seek to understand Jesus and fo llo w Him.

T he Y ou n g M en ’s Christian Association.

The year 1928-29 has brought marked success to the Y. M. C. A. Under the leadership o f an efficient cabinet very interesting and worth while meetings have been held. T opics o f special interest to college men have been handled in discus­ sion groups, thus allow ing each student a chance to voice his own opinion. A number of local citizens, have also brought helpful messages.

The Y. M. C. A. cooperated with ihe Y. W. C. A. in securing Gordon Howard, a director o f young p eop le’s work in the United Brethren Church, for a four-day meeting in December.

He brought splendid messages to the students and gave special help to those who requested personal conferences. Harry Bone, a national Y. M. C. A. traveling secretary, was with us fo r two days for a series o f conferences.

The Y. M. C. A. has also contributed to the social life o f the campus. In the fall a stag party was held in the old gymnasium. It was enjoyed by all, especially after the girls tried to get the watermelon. A l the opening o f each semester, the Y. M. C. A. cooperated with the Y. W . C. A. in holding the semi-annual “ Jolly-up” reception.

A lively campaign to interest students in the Estes Park Conference has been carried on join tly by the two associations. It is hoped that there may be a number o f delegates to this conference and that they may return enthusiastic for next year’s work.

The Pals’ Literary Society is one of ihe oldest organizations on the campus.

However, until after Lhe organization o f the rival society, Zeta, the Pals were known as Amphictyons and Pliilomatlieans and functioned as separate societies fo r men and women respectively. Joint meetings were held occasionally. The initial letters, A. L. S. and P. L. S. were used to designate the organizations. But the appearance o f two rival societies with the joint name o f Zeta stimulated the Am phictyons ami Pliilomatlieans to com bine their initial letters and evolve the name “ Pals” which has been used ever since. For approxim ately the last ten years only joint meetings have been held.

The present year has proved a very enjoyable and profitable one fo r the Pals.

Strengthened last fall by the addition o f a number of new and capable members they have steadily pursued their purpose of developing the talents o f their members.

Various kinds o f musical numbers, orations, impromptu addresses, debates, and other literary efforts make up the programs. From the standpoint o f achievement it is interesting to note that most o f the varsity debaters are Pals. The fa ll reception, the spring picnic, and the spring banquet are among the annual social functions.

In the fa ll o f 1914 it became apparent that the two literary societies then in existence could no longer fu lly meet the needs o f a grow ing student body. For this reason, it was considered advisable to organize two new societies to function as brother and sister organizations. A ccordin gly, the Zetalethean Society fo r women and the Zetagathean fo r men were organized.

For the next four years the two Zeta Societies met alternately throughout the school year, with a joint meeting partly social in nature, about once a quarter.

During the period of the W orld W ar, however, the Zetagatheans were so reduced in numbers that it was deemed advisable to hold only joint meetings. This policy proved so agreeable to the members that it has been continued ever since.

The meetings are held on alternate Tuesday evenings in Zeta Hall in the Administration Building. The work o f the present year opened with a good program follow ed by the customary reception for the new students and the faculty. A number o f capable new members were secured at this meeting. Other social features are being planned fo r the spring.

The value of membership in a literary society can scarcely be over-estimated.

The literary, business, and social phases o f the work, the parliamentary drill, the training in leadership, and the experience gained in cooperating with others make up no small part o f a liberal education.

Debate.

M ore than the usual amount of interest has been manifested in debate this year.

The programs o f the Pals’ Literary Society offered excellent opportunity for practice in debate aside from the work done in debate class. Another feature o f the season was the freshmen vs. upperclassmen debate in which the latter group was victorious.

The conference question for debate was, Resolved that the present jury system o f the United States should be abolished. This question proved to be o f great interest to the debaters because o f its important bearing on a vital question o f the present day.

By winning seven out o f eleven debates, the debaters finished the season with a better record than that o f any previous Y ork C ollege debate team. The affirmative team, com posed o f Onita Stone, Ual Hanshew, and Schuyler Phillips, won four out o f six debates. The negative team, com posed o f W ilhelm ina Feemster, Homer Crosby, Harlie Allen, and Sutton Hice, won three out o f five debates. The affirmative had the honor o f winning the decision in the W esleyan-York debate. This was the first debate victory Y ork College has ever had over Wesleyan. The negative team engaged in a no-decision debate with Peru which was one o f the most interesting contests of the season. With most o f the debaters planning to return next year the prospects for bettering this year’s record look very bright.

The Panther Club is the outgrowth o f the Booster Club which was organized at York College in 1926. Two members are chosen from each class and from the faculty. Y ell leaders are then chosen from the student body at large.

The Panther Club, one o f the most active o f the college organizations, started the year by instilling pep and spirit into the student body for the football season through pep program s in chapel, bon-fire rallies, and snake dances down town. The club sponsored the college section o f the parade on September 28, Y ork ’s Hom e­ com ing Day, and entered a float in its own name.

Since the Student Council was not yet organized, the freshman initiation, includ­ ing the “ W earing o f the Green,” was placed in the hands o f the Panther Club by the administration, and through their untiring efforts it was successfully managed.

The biggest event o f the year was the elaborate and well planned F ootball Banquet which was served in the main dining room o f the United Brethren Church on December 18. It was attended by about one hundred peppy students, faculty, alumni, and friends, and the Panther Club felt well repaid fo r their efforts.

Throughout the basketball season the Panther Club kept the college spirit at a high point.

The A rt Department.

For the past seven years the Y ork College Art Department has been most ably directed by Mrs. J. A. Giauque, form erly o f the Illinois Wesleyan Department o f Art. She has specialized in a number of different phases o f art, and Y ork College students are indeed fortunate to have the opportunity of studying under her supervision.

Courses are offered in applied design, oil, water color, pastel, china, basketry, leather tooling, clay m odeling, and drawing.

In Normal Art, students may take

work preparing them to serve as teachers o f draw'ing or supervisors o f art education in the pu blic schools.

Evening classes are held to accommodate p eople o f the

community who are otherwise engaged during the day.

During commencement week o f each year the art department holds a public reception at which time the work accom plished during the year is placed on exhibition.

It is not necessary to have special talent in art in order to enroll fo r some helpful and enjoyable course in this department. In fact, every student should, sometime during his college course avail him self o f the opportunity to extend his powers o f observation, im prove his taste, and arouse a new sense o f appreciation for the beautiful through a study o f some phase o f art.

Y ork Business College.

The Commercial and Shorthand Department o f Y ork College offers an o p p o r­ tunity fo r the education o f young men and women along the broadest lines o f busi­ ness pursuits. The courses offered are as thorough and up-to-date as are found in any business college. The aim o f the department is to turn out students trained to handle the problem s o f every day life successfully. They can point with pride to successful graduates in the larger business centers who are today holding re­ sponsible positions. Quality rather than quantity is the standard by which the department prefers to be judged.

Students in this department have a distinct advantage over students in an ordinary business college in that they have the social and cultural environment p ro­ vided by the presence of the liberal arts college on the same campus. Business college students have the privilege o f membership in the various campus organiza­ tions, including the literary societies. The value o f this kind o f campus activity must not be overlooked, for it is here that the student gets a training that no course in English affords. The student with a first class business training is much better prepared fo r the duties o f every day life if he has also had the training fo r leader­ ship that can be obtained by accepting responsibilities in the various campus organizations.

The Business College has it own officers and its own social affairs, as distinct from the social affairs o f the whole institution. Outstanding events were a picnic on the banks o f Lincoln Creek early in the fall and a theater party in January.

Y o rk Business College.

The Commercial and Shorthand Department of Y ork College offers an op p or­ tunity fo r the education of young men and women along the broadest lines o f busi­ ness pursuits. The courses offered are as thorough and up-to-date as are found in any business college. The aim o f the department is to turn out students trained to handle the problem s o f every day life successfully. They can point with pride to successful graduates in the larger business centers who are today holding re­ sponsible positions. Quality rather than quantity is the standard by which the department prefers to be judged.

Students in this department have a distinct advantage over students in an ordinary business college in that they have the social and cultural environment p ro: vided bv the presence o f the liberal arts college on the same campus. Business college students have the privilege o f membership in the various campus organiza­ tions, including the literary societies. The value o f this kind of campus activity must not bfl overlooked, fo r it is here that the student gets a training that no course in English affords. The student with a first class business training is much better prepared fo r the duties o f every day life if he has also had the training fo r leader­ ship that can be obtained by accepting responsibilities in the various campus organizations.

The Business College has it own officers and its own social affairs, as distinct from the social affairs o f the whole institution. Outstanding events were a picnic on the banks o f Lincoln Creek early in the fall and a theater party in January.

T h e G lee Club.

The Glee Club has been doing excellent work under the able direction o f Dean Charles Amadon. His interest in good music and his desire that all might learn to appreciate it make the glee club training very valuable. Dean Am adon has been recognized as a m an o f high musicianship, and his work has been praised by prominent musicians and teachers. Y ork College is indeed proud to have such an able director fo r the voice department.

During the year the Glee Club studies and presents in pu blic a number of selections o f the very best music. Last year two cantatas figured as the outstanding accomplishments o f thp year. They were, “ The Psalm o f L ife,” and “ From Olivet to Calvary,” the latter being sung at Easter in conjunction with the United Brethren choir.

This year’s curriculum has consisted o f work on a cantata, a light opera, and numbers from Bach’s “ St. Matthew’s Passion.” The cantata, “ A Man W ithout a Country,” by Hosmer, was given in November at the United Brethren Church before an appreciative audience. On January 17, a three-act opera, “ The Quaker G irl,” by Moncklon, was presented in the Y ork Theater. This has been pronounced the great­ est production ever put on by amateurs in York. In the presentation o f this opera, Dean Amadon was assisted by Miss Dorothy Metz who took care o f the stage setting and coached the dramatic parts, and Mr. Kenneth Bailey, instructor in violin at Hulitt Conservatory, who directed the orchestra.

It is o f vital importance to a student in college that he begin to build in accord­ ance with the wishes of his Maker. That is the aim o f each one o f the L ife W ork Recruits and Student Volunteers of Y ork College.

T o spread the teachings of Christ by word and by deed to those around them is the purpose of the students in this organization.

The organization during the first semester of the year 1927-28 had the op p or­ tunity o f listening to a series o f lectures given by Dean Charles Bisset on such topics as “ Heaven,” “ H ell,” “ Repentance,” and “ Salvation.”

In the second semester, the book, “ The How and W hy in China,” was studied.

These students have been studying by discussion the series o f pamphlets, “ The Christian Quest.” The pamphlets are a study in the leadership o f young people.

The group has had the privilege o f meeting with Dr. C. J. F ox and Rev. Gordon Howard, besides entertaining the State Student Volunteer Convention here.

An important part o f the program fo r each year has been the Gospel team work. In this work the members have the opportunity o f serving the community through sermon and song at nearby churches, as well as o f training themselves for the future years. It is with a great deal o f jo y that the L ife W ork Recruits and Student Volunteers look forward to a life o f service in the Master’s name.

T he Cheer Leaders.

College spirit is one o f those intangible things that it is hard to describe. It is a m ood that seems to exist one day and perhaps to have disappeared the next.

It is a spirit which some schools seem to have, and which others seem to lack.

C ollege spirit is a fine thing. It is the power that sends a football team out to battle a stronger, heavier team and defeat them. It is the force that sends men out on the basketball floor to fight their hardest. It is the com pelling influence that makes a man put everything he has into a hurdle race or a hundred yard clash. It is the spirit that insists on fair play, the spirit that stands fo r the honor o f the team and the school.

College spirit is not always noisy. Sometimes it is shy, hard working, and self sacrificing. But always it is undaunted and always it is more or less contagious.

Some people are not very susceptible to it, and resist until the last, but there are sure to be some occasions when they feel its influence.

At Y ork College we have college spirit. Sometimes it is m ore strongly felt than at other times. Sometimes it seems more contagious than at others. Som e足 times it is noisy and jubilant. Sometimes it is modest but insistent. Strangers have remarked its courage in the face o f difficulties.

It is the special duty o f the cheer leaders to help us maintain our college spirit, and they have rendered valiant service in this field, sometimes in the face o f great odds.

Hurrah for the Cheer Leaders!

T he 1928 F oot Ball Team.

The 1928 footb a ll season presented a number o f difficulties, and the men who faced them so gallantly are certainly to be commended.

The team has been captained

by F loyd Mann, Captain-elect Gilliland having failed to return.

A splendid tribute

was paid to Captain Mann early in the season by one o f his teammates who said, “ Mann’s avoirdupois acts as a ‘discourager’ to most o f his opponents, but those who fail to be discouraged find that he is there with football experience, too.”

A m ong the mem orable games o f the season was the one played at Central City.

A large number o f students went with the team on this trip.

Encouraged by their

loyal spirit and boundless enthusiasm, the boys battled their way to victory. The weather frowned on the combat, and a steady rain made things difficult fo r both players and spectators, but after it was all over, reports sounded as if the rain had merely added “ thrills” to the trip.

Three members o f our team received well deserved honors this year.

Harold

Jeffers, a senior, was placed at a guard position on the N. C. A . C. all-state second team selected by the Nebraska State Journal.

Jeffers, who has been one o f the

Panthers’ main stays certainly merited this honor.

Captain Mann received h onor­

able mention in the backfield, and Verne D ierdorff received honorable mention at end.

Five o f the squad w ill graduate.

Practically all o f the rest will be back next

fa ll. They w ill form a splendid nucleus fo r next year’s team, and prospects are bright fo r a successful season under the leadership o f Verne Dierdorff, captain-elect.

The 1927 F oot Ball Team.

C.oach Ladd Hubkaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Panthers o f the 1927 football squad were a group o f men o f whom the college may well be proud. A group of form er players had com e back and they form ed the nucleus o f the team. T o show their appreciation fo r the stellar work o f Reed Gilliland as center in 1926. the members of the squad elected him to captain the 1927 Panthers. Captain Gilliland made an excellent leader and pivot fo r the team.

A m ong the games played that w ill long be remembered was Llie York-M idland game played on the gridiron o f York High School. The cheer section led by excellent cheer leaders, stood up during the entire game, facing a strong north wind, to cheer fo r the team who held the strong Midland team to a lie. The playing o f the team that day and the spirit o f the student body will long be remembered in the football annals o f the college.

In the seven games the PanLhers played, they won three games, tied three and losl one, a game out of the conference. Their record showed 127 points against their opponents, and their goal line had been crossed five times for 32 points. The team finished the season with a thousand per cent standing in the conference. Due to the numbejj o f ties, however, they failed to have the championship awarded to them.

The seasonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s score record was:

Basketball.

The season this year opened with three letter men back to form the nucleus of the new team. A number of freshmen with considerable ability also reported. The team finished the season with a standing well up in the conference and the college is proud o f their record.

One o f'th e most interesting games o f the entire season was the first one to be played on the home floor, the York-Grand Island game on January 25. The occasion was made a mem orable one by the fact that prior to the game the new gymnasium was dedicated. President J. R. Overmiller presided at the service. Rev. L. C. Fuqua, pastor o f the local Congregational church spoke briefly in the absence o f C. A. M c­ Cloud, president of the Board of Trustees, who was to have given the address of the evening. Rev. Paul Turner, pastor o f the Presbyterian church, offered the dedicatory prayer. Coach R. B. McCandless, Captain Fred Gilbert, the other local players, and the visiting team were all introduced to the audience. The National Guard band, led by Mr. Joy Payne, played “ Dedication M arch,” follow ed by other appropriate numbers. The clim ax of a historic evening was reached when Y ork finished an exciting game with a victory.

Louis Helzer, center fo r the York team, was again awarded a place on the allstate team this year. Helzer is one of the outstanding athletes o f the state and York College is proud o f his record. Captain Gilbert should also be commended for his fine work.

Am ong the freshmen who have shown outstanding ability are Paul Batty, Marvin Creech, and Neal Gallant. These men, and Vernon Moist will be back next year.

With these experienced players on hand and with one o f the finest gym floors in the state, Y ork is looking forw ard to another championship next year.

N. C. A . C. Champions.

The squad which reported for basketball fo r the 1928 season did not appear to be in any way exceptional. However, thanks to Coach Hubka’s ability, a team was developed from that squad which upset the “ dope bucket” and marched right through the season to the championship.

A new conference com posed o f eight o f the denominational schools o f the state had just been form ed. It was called the Nebraska Collegiate Athletic Conference.

The 1928 championship was the first one awarded by the new conference and we were proud to see our own school win the trophy. The award was a silver statue o f a basketball player in the act o f catching a ball high above his head. The figure is mounted on a base on which is engraved the significance o f the trophy.

Captain “ Slick” Helzer, at center, was probably the outstanding player o f the team. He was awarded a place on the all-state team and was one o f the high scorers o f the state. J The two games with Doane College were the most interesting games o f the season.

The first was played at Doane aL the close o f a three-day trip. Doane won by a small margin. A large number o f rooters from York attended the game. The second game was played at York and was the battle which decided the championship. Doane brought their band and a large group o f rooters. The gymnasium was crowded to the limit and the game itself was one o f the most thrilling ever played at York College.

T he “ Y ” Club.

The “ Y ” Club was organized in 1924 by Coach John R iddell.

It is com posed

o f all men who have been awarded the official “ Y ” for participation in some athletic sport.

Membership in the club is perpetual but only those who are in school are

considered active members.

New members initiated since the picture was taken are:

Neal Gallant, Ual Hanshew, W alter Hunt, Lee K nolle, Clarence Davis, Gene Dunken, and Verne Dierdorff.

Others are eligible now, and still more w ill be by the end

o f the year.

The club has been especially active during the past two years. During the last year, they reorganized and adopted a new constitution.

They have proven them­

selves so efficient that the responsibility for the athletic activities o f the college has been turned over to them.

This work was form erly handled by a board made up

o f representatives o f the various classes. The new gymnasium, com pleted too late for a place in the view section, w'as a project o f special interest to the “ Y ” Club, and, under the leadership of Coach McCandless, they contributed several hundred dollars worth o f labor to the new building. They also handled very successfully the district high school basketball tournament, and their annual invitation tournament.

The club meets regularly each month fo r a social time together and fo r the transaction o f business. Each member is permitted to purchase a small medal, officially designed by the club, which serves as a life pass to all athletic contests at Y ork College.

The W om en’s Athletic Association was organized in the fall o f 1924 fo r the purpose o f prom oting girls’ athletics. Since that time the W . A. A . has done very effective work in organizing new sporls and in fostering more enthusiasm among the girls for this type o f work. Sports promoted b y the association are: Hiking, volley-ball, soccer, basketball, tennis and track.

Any girl enrolled in York College may becom e a member o f the W. A. A. upon paying her dues and earning 100 points. Points may be won by participation in sports and by holding executive offices. 100 points are given to the winners o f a contest, 75 points to the runners-up, and 50 points to all other competitors. The follow in g Awards are given: an arm band for 100 points; a white sweater with a blue “ Y ” fo r 1000 points; a W . A. A. pin or a varsity blanket fo r 1500 points.

In the fa ll and spring the girls often go on early morning hikes. These hikes consist o f fou r miles walked in approxim ately one hour. After such a walk the girls enjoy the good breakfast o f w affles or of bacon and eggs waiting fo r them at the domestic science room.

Every spring the W . A. A. holds a girls’ tennis tournament. The winner o f the singles is given a silver loving cup. If the same girl wins the cup three years in succession it becomes hers permanently. Last year this cup was won by A lice Coffey.

The 1929 Marathon presents on the follow ing pages the representative man and the representative woman student o f Y ork C ollege.

The qualities considered in making the selec­ tion were scholarship, athletic ability, character, and service to the college.

B y popular vote o f the

student body, Thornton M iller, ’29, o f Lamar, N e­ braska, and A lice C o ffey , ’29, o f O xford, Nebraska, were chosen as best representing

those

qualities.

Schuyler Phillips, ’29, o f Perris, California, and Neva Brookhart., ’28, o f N elson, Nebraska, ranked second.

T he Class o f 1929.

Perhaps no year o f school life ever means so much to a class as the senior year in college. As we approach the end o f our unde'r-graduate life, the friendships we have form ed during the past years mean m ore to us than ever before. During the past year we have com e into closer contact with one another because o f the increasing number o f class problem s we have had to work out and the decisions we have had to make. During this year when we have more seriously considered our life work we have found that we have m ore in com m on than in the care-free days when we were thoughtless under-classmen.

Next year we shall be scattered. Two members of the class plan to take up m edical study, one plans to go east to study radio engineering, and another to the University o f California to study fo r a Master’s degree in philosophy. Other members of the class expect to take up various phases o f teaching. Several o f our number are L ife W ork Recruits and hope eventually to take up some form o f definite Christian service.

Wherever we may be located, we shall always remember the Senior Recognition Day, February 7, as the outstanding day o f the year. The class o f 1929 was form ally recognized by a program given at the college church. The procession was led by fou r members o f the junior class. They were follow ed by President Overm iller, Dean Bisset, Professors Baller and M iller, the seniors in cap and gown, and the remaining members o f the junior class. The program was as fo llo w s: Processional ______________ In v o ca tio n _____________

A t the noon hour follow in g the program , the class met at the Hotel M cCloud for luncheon. The seniors and their advisers, Prof. and Mrs. Baller, were seated at a long table which was sim ply decorated with clever place cards and red roses, the class flower. A fter luncheon a short business meeting was held on the mezzanine floor, follow ed by a program o f amusing talks by P rof. Baller, Edna Coffey, Schuyler P hillips, Louis fielzer, and Everett Samuelson. In the evening, President and Mrs. Overm iller honored the class at a most delicious dinner. Every member o f the class w ill long remember the hospitality o f the president’s home.

The seniors have enjoyed many happy occasions together during this last year in Y ork College, and every one o f them hasbeen made brighter by the ready h elp fu l­ ness o f Prof. and Mrs. Baller whose friendship has made our lives richer. W e wish we might give adequate expression to our appreciation o f what they have meant to us. W e shall always cherish the m em ory o f the happy occasions in which they have been our leaders, and our very best wishes will go with them through the years.

T h e absence o f the presence o f M iss Io n a F ord fro m lu n ch and d in n er yesterday created a g lo o m y fear a m o n g the other boarders at the C on serva tory.

M iss I o n a F o rd is a b lo n d e , ab o u t five fe e t tall, w h o r o o m s on the third flo o r o f the conservatory.

S o again and again she repeated in lo u d shrieking tones, " I o n a ! I o n a !” S till I o n a slept on.

Faintly breathing, exhausted by the th ou g h t o f the inm ates’ death, dashing d ow n the stairs, taking five steps to her on e breath, she reached the low er flo o r and began searching fo r the m atron, ca llin g in exasper­ ating tones, " H e l p ! H e lp ! I can’ t awaken I o n a F o r d !”
