Weimer K. Hicks, President ... has done a great deal more for Wayland than can be put on this page. His newest addition to improve the school is the redecorating of the Beebe Auditorium. A completely new set of seats has been installed, the walls have been repainted, beautiful curtains have been purchased, and ( perhaps the greatest improvement of all ) a modern lighting system has been installed. Another project that was completed over the previous summer was the landscaping of the campus. This has done a great deal to lessen confusion in the parking of cars. o matter where one goes he can see Mr. I licks' works everywhere. Look to the southeast and there one sees the Laura A. IacDonald athletic field, which has been converted from a victory garden. lext to the field is Club Henri, where the students can go for fun and relaxation. The remodeling of the Club is also one of l\1r. Hicks' doings. Another spot on the campus where pleasure and exercise can be found is the beautiful and well-equipped Lindsay Gymnasium and swimming pool. Perhaps the most important of these, though, has not been mentioned, the Johnston Memorial Chapel. Changes have been made in school government also. I Ie set up the Student Senate, which is the student governing body, and which has done a remarkable job in improving relations between the students and faculty, as well as obtaining more freedom for the students. Mr. Hicks attended the Peddy School for Boys and then obtained his bachelor of arts degree from Princeton University. From there he went to Cornell, where he received a master's degree. Before coming to \tVayland in 1943, he taught English at Peddy School for nine years. Those who have attended Wayland can only thank Mr. Hicks for the many fine things he has brought to this school. We can verify the statement that he is doing everything in his power to make a still greater Wayland.

Ruth L. Foster, Dean of Girls ... means more to the Waylandites than just an individual who is superior in rank to the students. She is a confidant, dean, and-to the senior English class-teacher. Before coming to Wayland, Mrs. Foster had a great deal of experience in dealing with teen agers and the many problems and troubles that confront them. Mrs. Foster graduated from Smith College, where she obtained her bachelor's degree. Later she received a master's degree from Columbia University. The greatest of Mrs. Foster's responsibilities is that of Dean of Girls. She handles every situation with ease and calmness. Whenever a difficult si-tuation arises Mrs. Foster is always prepared; therefore the girls can always rely upon her for guidance and advice. She has helped the girls of Warren I Iall realize the seriousness of adulthood. She has achieved this by giving the young women responsibilities that they must fulfill and by running the dormitory on honor above all else. ot only is Mrs. Foster the Dean , but she is also the head of the English Department. I Ier senior English class really prepares the students for any college in the country. o dormitory girl will ever forget Mrs. Foster; and it has truly been said that she is our "away-from-home mother." On leaving Wayland, the least we can do is to say, "Thank you from the bottom of our hearts."

J. Hobart Tucker, Dean of Boys . . . has become one of the greatest factors in the success of scholastic guidance and fellowship here at Wayland. He has done every boy in Wayland a great favor, by his judgment, in shaping their ideals and minds into young manhood. Mr. Tucker came to Wayland from Culver Military Academy, where he was head of the Latin department. When he first came here he was confronted for the first time with the idea of co-education. To him, this was an entirely new set-up, to 'vvhich he has become very well adapted. l\1r. Tucker is not only Dean of Boys, but is also head of the Latin Department. Mr. Tucker has traveled extensively in Europe, Africa, South and Central America, and the ear East. He received his bachelor of arts degree at Princeton University. I Ie has done graduate study at the universities of Grenoble, I leidelberg, Sorbonne, and the American Academy at Rome. There isn't a boy in the dorm who doesn't respect l\1r. Tucker in every way. He's a person with whom you can sit down and talk with about anything; and no matter what it is about, it will never leave the room. l\lr. Tucker is one person whom all the senior boys will wish they had at college as their dean.

Alton E. Wichman Dean of Curriculum and Guidance is a man who is known as a "jack-of-all-trades." He's versatile enough to take almost any job in school, and has. Mr. Wichman was Dean of Boys until six years ago wJ1en he attained his present position as Dean of Curriculum and Guidance. He has been at \i\Tavland since 1925, and has in every wav showed his interest in the students and their work. ' Today Mr. Wichman is head of the history department. He also gives counsel to the students, he! ping them shape their ideals and directing their lives toward the goal which will be most profitable for them in society. At Carroll College he majored in journalism and dramatics. This explains vvhy he excels as a public speaker. This talent is often and well shown in his timely chapel talks. He is always in demand as an interim pastor in various churches and as master of ceremonies for many social functions. Not to escape anyone's eyes is Mr. Wichman's sense ol' humor, which excels almost anyone else's on the campus. I Te can also be just as stern, but this seldom happens. I Ie is always willing to see the humorous side of many classroom incidents. Graduating seniors each year will carry with them the inspiration of 1r. Wichman's life of service.

THE FORTY- NINERS

Four years ago a band of lonely, uneducated freshmen descended upon this \i\Tayland campus; there are seven who have remained throughout these four years. Now we take off our hats to Thelma Arslan, Mitzi McMinn, Anne Jenkins, Mary \tVhitfield, Pat Hull, Cecil Smith, and Art Peterson. Johnny Nunn, our senior class president, is a three and one-half year senior, who has done a fine job during his years at Wayland. As time went on we gained members and lost a few, some of whom have returned to finish with us. We gained the best that could be had. Studentpresident, Ronnie Schmidt, came in our sophomore year with Pete l\1u eller, who is our outstanding football and track man. Bob Shure was elected freshman class president with a fine cabinet, and for a freshman class they gave very good activities. Dwight Harris was president in the sophomore year and put on such remembered activities as "Moon Glow" and "Bright Sight." Dwight did such a good job that he was re-elected and was president in our junior year. (Continued on page 36)

As juniors we offered a great deal in the way of sports. On the football field basketball Hoor, swimming pool, and track field representatives of the class were seen. It was during this year that Rouland had its start, and again the juniors took part to make this musical show a success. Some of the oustanding activities of the year were the "Ball and Chain," the "Dew Drop Inn," and the junior prom-"Stairway to the Stars." At last, at long last, we are seniors. After four years of trial and error, mostly error, we made it! With the fall of 1948 came a much larger group than the original freshman class. Class elections were held, and leading us into our final year at Wayland was John Nunn. Other officers were Jose Trasancos as vice-president, Dwight I Iarris as secretary, and Gay Nelson as treasurer. Our courageous sponsors through our junior and senior years have been Mr. and Mrs. Cassedy. Scholastically speaking, Carol Matthews and Dwight Harris have represented us well through the years and Docie Lethen, who has just been here a year and a half, has led the seniors on the honor roll. In the field of music we have had many talented members: Chick Noreus with her piano playing in the third Boor lounge and in chapel, and Thelma Arslan and Mitzi McMinn with their singing. Mitzi was the star of Rouland this year. Concerning artists we have "Winnie" Woods with her posters ( Dew Drop Inn?) and other contributors in art. If a little manual labor is needed, you can always call on Ernie and some of "The Boys." Our class has also supplied more than its share of girl and boy athletes, as you will see in the following pages of this book. Heading the list of activities we put on is the Senior Spook-it even had a spook house? December brought the Christmas formal, and a very dreamy dance it was. The Tinsel Ball was held in the library and the beautiful tree, soft lights, fir boughs, and the singing of carols put everyone in the Yuletide spirit. In January the annual Coronation Ball was led by Queen Thelma Arslan and King Dave Davis. The senior attendants were Anne Jenkins, Jackie Kerr, Bill Weston , and Dan MacKinnon. Rouland, spring vacation, the prom, signing of annuals, final exams, last farewells, and at last-Commencement. Yes, some have had four wonderful years and for the rest, three to one; but every senior, old or new, will leave with a store of joyful and serious memories. Through the ups and downs the class has stood by one another, and let's hope that in the years to come these years spent on the campus of Wayland will be one of the happiest memories. Seniors, this is it-best of luck to a wonderful bunch.

The junior class, under the able leadership of Don Davis, is really surpassing the hopes they had as Sophomores.

The sophomores, under the able leadership of Bob Strain as president, Beck Fisher as -vice-president, Jane Soutar as secretary, and Peter Horst as treasurer are continuing their tradition to do a ÂŁne job in whatever they undertake. At Homecoming, our skit, "Sophomore Sophistries," took second place with Gig Young as master of ceremonies. At least we're consistent; our concentrated efforts to produce a winning effigy aided us in capturing the honors in that ÂŁeld. Eric Nehls and Bob Strain made Varsity football. The girls, too, have shown their excellent abilities in athletics. A large percentage of the sophomores were seen on the hockey squad this fall. Marilyn Lusher, Jan ice Larkin, Connie Becker, Barbi Burstein, and Jane Soutar succeeded in making the girls' basketball team. Many thanks go to our class advisers, Miss Gustafson and Mr. Mayer, for the many tasks we have undertaken. Keep up the good work, Sophomores!

The Freshman class certainly started off on the right foot this year with Stoakley Swanson as our president. Our first honor was to be the first freshman class to receive first place for the Homecoming skits. Our first activity was a roller skating party on December 3. We had extra amusement to make it different, and it was a great success. The football team, basketball team, and swimming team had freshmen boys as members. These boys are Bob Hetherington, Chuck Stevens, Dave Spengler, Alfred Anderson , and Jerry Roberts. The freshmen girls have been very active in sports this year. Judy Grout, and Georgia Straint are cheerleaders, and many of the others were in field hockey, water ballet, and basketball. Several of them are looking forward to receiving their letters this year. The other class officers are Georgia Strain as vice-president, Vicky Coerper as secretary, and Judy Grout as treasurer. Our class advisers are Miss Weiske and Mr. Schneider.

The Junior Varsity team went through their fivegame season with two losses, two wins, and one tie. These lads, who did not play on the varsity squad, were coached by Pete Pasko. They played their opening game with Beaver Dam, and after a hard-fighting game fell to a score of 16-6. The second game proved to be a close game for the J. V. men, when the game with Horicon ended in a score of 7-6. On October 11, the team faced Watertown Preps and this time came through with a victory to add to their record. With the team well in mid season, Wayland met the Beaver Dam team in a return game, only to have the game end in a deadlock of 6-6. The

fir!al game of the season was the return game with Watertown, and this time the J. V.'s wouldn't take "no" for an answer. The game ended in a score of 20-13. This year the Frosh-Soph team had an inspired group which was coached by the "Flying Parson," Dan Wood. Mr. Wood whipped his team into shape for the first game, and routed St. Peters 26-0. The second game with Fond du Lac ended 19-6 in favor of Fond du Lac. The last game of the season was played against orthwestern Military and aval Academy, and ended in a 20-6 victory for the Frosh-Sophs.

In a return engagement with the cadets of Northwestern Military, we handed them a defeat of 44-11. Country D ay returned to meet us in the second to the last game of the season. We again came out the victor by 29-27. The reserves met their final game of the season against l\1US and found it also a hard one to put over. The game was close all the way through, with neither team taking the lead by more than 2 points. As the fourth quarter ended Wayland was ahead by a slim margin of 2 points and the game ended with Wayland on top, 31 -39. The Jayvee squad had a great season, one of the best in the school history, and with this material next year's Varsity squad should be on top of the conference.

Wayland then clashed with orthwestern Military and dealt them a death blow of 35-18. By this time the team was beginning to click. Both Luis T rasancos and his brother Jose, were hitting the basket well every game. Harris was doing a terrific job as guard, and Pickard was playing the center spot better and better as time went on.

When MUS hit the campus for the last game of the season it was fateful. The game ended in a score of 38-37 in favor of MUS. This years season had its great points and its bad ones, but through it all the team showed a good spirit of sportsmanship which is something to be very proud of. Wayland's team of next year will be out to pick up where this one left off. 路

SWIMMING In their second year as a major varsity sport, the swimming team was directed first by Coach Leo Schnur. When he became coach of the Junior Varsity Basketball Team, Mr. Cassedy took over. The team and coaching staff is to be commended for the effort and improvement which the team showed during the current season and with the material which is left there is no doubt that in the future, the Wayland tankers will be a powerful force to be reckoned with. The first of the team"s four meets was held at Milwaukee University School. The boys suffered their first defeat then, but not before putting up a good fight; they lost only 42 to 40. The second meet was at Elgin Academy when again the boys in red lost another tough meet.

Now with Mr. Cassedy as the coach, the team again played Milwaukee University School, but this time in our own pool and for the first time during the season the squad really showed that they had what it 路 takes to be a winning team. They defeated their Milwaukee competitors by the score of 42 to 47. On Saturday, February 26, the team brought to a close its four-meet season by dunking Elgin Academy by the score of 39 to 36. It was evident in this meet that the team had finally hit its stride and that from now Gn the boys would keep on improving their record until some day Wayland would turn out the finest of swimming teams. Who knows, next year may be the year!

Water Ballet On Saturday evening, March 19, a beautiful water ballet exhibition was given by a group of students under the leadership of Mrs. Mayer.

Hockey Many interests were offered for girls in the athletic program this past school year. In the fall, hockey was paramount. Thirty girls came out for it, and from those, two teams were chosen, consisting of eleven players each: C. Matthews, left wing; G. Nelson, left inner; C. Sensiba, center; M. Whitfield, right inner; B. Wright, right wing; P. Hull, left half; A I Iartman, center half; T. Arslan , right half; L. Weber, right fullback; E. Barber, left fullback; A MacArthur, goal keeper. Substitutes were A Jenkins, S. Rosenheimer, B. Miller, and M. Avent. The captain of the team was Mary Whitfield with Anne Jenkins as manager. We give Mrs. Mayer, our capable coach, much credit and praise for her enthusiasm and efforts toward making it a better team.

The season officially opened by attending a Play Day, October 16, at the Milwaukee Downer Field. We tied with Lake Geneva, and lost in a close game with MUS. The Milwaukee Downer Seminary team came to Wayland on the Saturday morning of our Homecoming and walked off with a victory. On November 6, MUS brought two teams to Wayland , and short games were played in Round Robin style. Before Thanksgiving vacation we had intramural games. The winning team received ten points toward their sixty-five point letters; the losing team received five points. Mrs. Mayer held a hockey party for the Varsity team after the season was over.

72


Basketball After we returned from Christmas vacation, basketball took the big spotlight in girls' winter sports. Mrs. Cassedy was coaching the team. Thirty girls turned out for basketball. After three weeks of practice, the Varsity squad was chosen, consisting of the following: Forwards-Connie Sensiba, Mary Whitfield, Joan Cooper, Margare~ Hoyer, Mayna Avent, Jean McLaughlin, Saranne Fry, Connie Becker, and Diane Shipman; Guards-Carol Matthews, Barbara Burstein, Marilvn Lusher, Ellen Barber, Bonnie Wright, Ja~e Soutar, Janice Larkin, Lynn Roseman , Anne Glanville, Jerry Barnum, and Jirina Hrazdilova. Squad practice was held for an hour, three times a week. Our first game was with Milwaukee University School. The first team lost to them, 42-23. The second team tied, 4141. The game was held here in Wayland's gym.

The next game was held at Milwaukee Downer. The scores were 40-25 for the first team and 25-19 for the second game. We played a return visit to Milwaukee University School later on. The first team came the closest to winning that it did the entire season. It was a very fast game the whole way. In the end, our opponents had won, 24-21. The second team again scot eJ a victory with a 33-24 score. The last game was with 1ilwaukee Downer again, but this time it was held here at Wayland. It was an easy walk-oil路 for the Downer girls in the first game by a 29-20 score. The second team did a much better job and came through with a 34-19 win. Summing up the basketball season-we all enjoyed the practicing and the few games we had a great deal. I-Iere is hoping for a better team next year, and I'm sure there vvill be a good one. Many thanks to Mrs. Cassedy for her coaching of the team.

Varsity Club One of the most important clubs on the Wayland campus is the girls' athletic club, the Varsity Club. Like the "W" Club it stands for high ideals of good sportsmanship and fair play. During the Invitational Basketball Tournament, the Varsity Club worked along side the "W" Club and served refreshments during the games. Just before spring vacations they sponsored the St. Patrick's Day Dance. The gym was decorated in green and white. This dance followed the Water Ballet, which was also sponsored by the Varsity Club. The biggest activity in the spring is the initiation. All girls who have obtained their required number of points for the "W"

letter are invited to join. That the requirements are high is evidenced by the small membership in the organization. This year Mary \Vhitfield was president, Thelma Arsland was vice-president, Anne Jenkins was secretary, and Mitzi McMinn was treasurer. Our heartfelt thanks go to our adviser, l\1rs. Mayer. Her interest and work have made possible the success of our organization. We'll never forget her after-lights parties. During its short five-year span of existence, the Varsity Club has made a place for itself on the Wayland campus. Every year it renews its vow to serve you-the \.Vayland students.

The exclusive "W" Club, composed o[ men who have proved their excellence in athletics by earning a coveted letter, has continued its activities o[ service to the school by promoting athletics to the nth degree. The Club is sponsored by Coach Leo Schnur, and is readily advancing under his leadership. The Club aided him greatly in putting on the \i\layland Invitational Basketball Tournament. The tournament was a great success and was typical of the flne ideals and cooperation that are instigated in the Club. In years to follow, the Club has agreed to take full responsibility for the tournament. The teams which took part were St. Mary's of Fond du Lac, Milwaukee Country Day, Northwestern Military and Naval Academy, St. John's Military Academy, Milwaukee Lutheran, Lake Forest Academy, and \i\Tinnebago Lutheran. This year the Club has grown from an organization which merely existed, to an organization vvhich is a leader in the school. The president is Russ I Iopf, who lettered in football in his sophomore year. The vice-president, Bob Royce, has letters in football, swimming, and track Al Clark, our secretary, has a letter in football; and Dick Deniger, the treasurer, has won letters both in football and basketball. Besides the officers of the Club, there ::~re Bill Henderson, Jim Lewis, Don Davis, Jerry James, Roh Roy Roberts, Luther Ison, Cecil Smith, Jon Rogers, Jack Ll phoff, Bil l Weston, Paul Moyr, Bob Grief, Bob Leisses, Dan MacKinnon, Dave Brethauer, and Ronnie Schmidt. Last year the "W" Clu.b donated money to have plagues made for the lohby of the gym. This money was earned by selling programs at I lomecoming and putting on different activities throughout the year. There will be more members returning next year to continue the work of the club than in years before, and every member who is graduating this year, wishes them the best of luck and cooperation.

YWCA The Y.W.C.A. at Wayland this year is under the leadership of Carol Matthews, who has organized it into a working, active group on the campus. With Joan Gorden as vice-president, Lavonne Weber as secretary, and Thelma Arsland as treasurer, the Y.W.C.A. has sponsored various interesting Wednesday evening meetings, with faculty members and other Y. W.C.A. hi ends as speakers. In its program, the Y.W.C.A. has also presented this year its annual Fellowship Dinner in October, and the February Masquerade, for the purpose of raising money for the March of Dimes. In May the banguet for the installation of new officers, an inspiring and effective ceremony, was held in Warren Hall. The year of 1949 closed on Wayland 's Y.\V.C.c\. with the sentimental Senior Farewell on the girb' athletic field, and renewed for many of the girls a realization of the Y.W.C.A. 's importance in their lives. !VIiss l\1m路ion Mitchell was, as always, our in路 spirational and helpful adviser.

Drama Club--Rouland This year the Rouland show of 1949, "From Scarecrow Square," was really a smash hit. Like last year, it was a musical with all the comedy for the skits, songs, and the dances done entirely by the students. Talk about Rouland began even before Thanksgiving vacation, and it is still going on. Shortly after Christmas vacation the cast and crew went to work oh the show ~vith real zeal. Everyone-especially Miss Weiske, Miss Drescher, and l\1iss Weidner-hardly had a moment to himself with all the work to be done. Then a week before the actual show, we had our mid-semester long weekend. While most of us went home for a rest, Miss Weiske and her group of over fifty students spent those four days putting on the finishing touches to the show. After seeing the production we all agreed that that weekend was by no means a waste of time. From the time we set out for Broadway at 8:30 A. l\'1. with Mitzi McMinn 'til twelve midnight, when we went back to Ioway with all the citizens we saw a wonderful show packed to the brim with beauty, humor, music, dancing, comedy, and just good acting. Wayland's new lighting system was especially effective in the spectacular Spanish number, showing the use of black lights on fluorescent costumes. The principals were T. Arslan, C. Noreus, G. Nelson, D. Christense, S. Rosenheimer, B. Miller, G. McBain, 0. ehls, D. Hansen, J. James, L. Ison, J. Scott, D. Steinman, M. McMinn, A. Fox, L. Weber, A. Jenkins, F. Kram, J. Carter, J. Kerr, B. Lee, D. Bidgood, F. Simaika, T. Corbett, J. Morgan, and A. Klawans. After Rouland many students began hard work on declams and orations for the local forensic contest which was held on March 18. Those winning places in the contests were Margaret Iloyer and Sally Hunt, for extemporaneous reading; Carl Huber in original oratory; John Morgan and Judy Carter in serious declam; and Fleurry Kram, Ellen Barber, and Barbara Burstein in humorous declams. This year, with Miss Mary Ellen Weiske, as the faculty adviser of the Drama Club, we have as our student officers: president, Lavonne Weber; secretary, Thelma Arslan; treasurer, Margaret Hoyer. Our thanks go to you, the students and faculty members of Wayland, for all the assistance and work you have done to make this, 1949, a truly successful year for the Drama Club.

PILLARS Most of us on the Pillars' staff this year except Mary Whitfield, girls' sports editor, are new at the business. We have had a lot to learn, but we hope it hasn't been at the expense of this book. This year Winnie Woods is our art editor and editor-in-chief combined. Jackie Kerr and Bob Royce are co-literary editors. Our hard-working business managers, Bob Leisses and Margaret Hoyer, have really done a marvelous job getting advertisements for our annual. ( Bod lands the customers and Margaret collects.) If you have heard someone knocking on your door, it's probably Sue Brannon or Jon Rogers looking for "snaps" for the calendar ( and, by the way, Joan Cooper has really been keeping the calendar). Besides "Whit," John Nunn does sports write-ups. For the information of you The Editorial Board typing students: When you see Miss Holmes at that vacant typewriter, it's probably a Pillars' article she's typing. We can't say too much about our circulation managers, Barbara Burstein and Gig Young; but we hope that come June they will be giving one of these pictorial diaries to every one of you. We surely hope you will like them.

POST The '48-'49 Post was published at the hands of Dode Lethen, a very capable and hard-working senior. The Post had a large number of personnel on its staff. Every one of the reporters added his or her contribution at some time or another. This year's monthly edition made up the fourth volume of the Post. Miss Carol Bickford, who was new to Wayland this year, did an excellent job as faculty adviser of the paper. Assisting Dode Lethen, the editor-in-chief, were Mary Whitfield writing the sports news from the girls' division; and John Nunn, who covered the boys' athletic events. Also on the staff for producing the Post were the following reporters: Thelma Arslan, Sue Brannon, Barbara Burstein , Joan Cooper, Don Davis, Jerry Grout, Burt Harris, Jackie Kerr, Carol Matthews, John The Editorial Board Morgan, Georgie Pelck, Connie Sensiba, Anne Fox, Annette Leipsiger, Barbara Miller, Margaret Hoyer, Lynn Roseman, and Bill Bloemendaal. Throughout the year our friend, Hal Kempfer's column of poetry continually popped up somewhere between the covers. The Inquiring Reporter has been the same person for two years in successionMargaret Hoyer. In the "Dooo Tell" column Jackie Kerr did the honors, and Connie Sensiba told us all the latest happenings in "Dear Diary."

Youth Group Week on the Wayland campus. It featured this year Rev. Kyle Haselton. Every afternoon and morning there was an address by Rev. Haselton on subjects chosen by the Youth Group. They were: "Christianity and World Fellowship," "Christianity and Racial Prejudice," "Christianity and Campus Life," "Christianity and ational Policies," and "Christianity and Courtship and Marriage." Every evening there was a fellowship hour of game playing and singing led by Luther Ison and Chic Noreus. At the morning chapel services on Monday and Tuesday mornings, Rev. Schilling and Rev. Thorne were guest speakers. This year the officers are Winnie Woods, president; John Morgan, vicepresident; and Jim Lewis, secretarytreasurer.

The Youth Group has been an active organization on the Wayland campus for four years. Its meets in Roundy Clubrooms every Sunday night at 8:45 for one hour. Sometimes guest speakers come to the meetings, but usually there is an informal discussion led by Rev. Wood. These discussions are of religious problems both social and personal and problems of the Wayland student. This is not a denominational group. Its members are Protestant, Catholic, and Jewish. In the meetings a sutdent can learn what his fellow students think and why, and in that way he can develop and strengthen his philosophy of life. Besides its weekly meetings the Youth Group helps organize, participate in, and give its full support to Religion in Life Week. March 20, 21 , and 22 were the days for the fifth annual Religion in Life

Home-

The theme of this year's Wayland Homecoming was the New Look- new gym, new pool, and new roads. But even with all the new attractions both students and alumni had the same old spirit. The festive spirit was shown on the campus by gay posters and figures of football players crouching around the campus. Friday evening the classes and faculty put on a variety program of skits. "All I \1\Tant for Christmas Is My Two Front Teeth" sung by the four dignified faculty members brought down the house. The evening ended with a pep rally and a blazing bonfire to brighten the spirits of the crowd. Saturday morning, the girls' hockey team played Milwaukee Downer. The big game which all had been waiting for came in the afternoon when our team put up a grand fight against Northwestern Preps. The final score was 12 to 0 in their favor.

96


Coming

The Homecoming Dinner vvas held in the new gym and Mr. Wichman was the Master of Ceremonies. Some of the speakers were Phil Esten, Miss Marion Mitchell, and President Hicks. The entertainment was provided by the Girls' Sextette and the Junior College Quartette. When the dinner was over everyone went to Linfield for the dedication ~~rvice of the Beebe Auditorium. At nine the new gym was transformed for the dance with a fine orchestra. After the dance an Alumni Snack I lour was held at Club Henri. Sunday, the Homecoming Service was held at the Baptist Church, followed by a buffet luncheon in the gymnasium. Once more Homecoming came to an end at Wayland, but everyone knew b) the success of this one that there would be many more.

ALLEGIANCE As of old when /wights and maidens, Su111moned by Devotion's call, Gathered 'midst the hallowed splendor Of some great, ancestral hall, So, today, we do thee homage, Wayland, castle of our dreams! In thy name our torch was lighted, Gallant still its white flame gleams. Staunch we stand and ever loyal, True to lessons thou hast taught, Strong to do thy boldest bidding, Fortified by battles fought. Quickened by thy inspiration, On we press to heights above, Comrades in a mighty army, Kindred in a filial love. 'Round 11s surge the eager voices Of an unseen mystic throng, Spirits of thy absent children Joining in this festal song. They, like us, in fond allegiance Nurtured at thine ancient shrine, Ever keep thy mem'ry sacred, Cherished as a gift divine.

105


We, the PILLARS staff of 1949, would like at this time to thank Miss Helene Holmes, our faculty adviser. This position is one of much work and little recognition. She has done more than her part, and we are deeply grateful.
