SIRs-Ive just finished reading the first edi tion of the new magazine and I want to tell you youve got something there I liked especially the twoshypage spread of State Policeman Crabshytree from Gnaw Bone I hope you can dig something like that out for every issue

Only one squeak You should use seven-point type for Alumni Notes I ne ler thought I would be anx iously sca nning an a lumni column to fin d out about my classmates and I had the cheated feeling that somebody was spreading a few names out a wfully fa r when I did do that scanning

I nd ianapolis E ARL H OH 38

The MAGAZINE will try to dig somethi ng out like Officer Crabtree of Gnaw Bone but not for every issue Reason cost Conshytemplated for a fut ure issue is a pictor ial survey o f the Universitys correspondence studen ts

The editoria l board considered well se tshyting the I Knew Him When section in seven-point type two months before Mr Hoffs suggestion was made Idea was abanshydoned because ([) not all alumni have such sharp eyes as Mr Hoff (w ho as editor of the Indiana Daily StudeJlt never wore glasses) and (2) experiments on randomshyse lected alumni during the summer proved they preferred the present ten-point type

Let Subscriber Hoff see the bundles of as yet untyped class new s notes before he makes the charge that somebody was spread ing a few names out awfully far - ED

The appointment of Howard R Tolshyley TO as chief of the newly constishytuted Bureau of Agricultural Economshyics in the United States Department of Agriculture was recently announced by Secretary Henry A Wallace This Bureau the secretary announced will include all general programming and planning for adjustment conservation and marketing programs of the deshypartment It will include the Program Planning Division and the general planning for the marketing programs heretofore in the AAA with which Mr Tolley has been associated for the last five years and since June 1936 as adshymin istrator

After graduation Mr Tolley taught for a short time in the high school in Michigan City Ind In 1912 he went to Vashington as mathematician in the Coast and Geodetic Survey and in 1916 became a scientific assistant in farm management in the United States Deshypartment of Agriculture In 1930 he left Washington to become Director of the Giannini Foundation of Agriculshytural Economics He has written proshyfusely A Jist of his published works fills more than six closely typewritten pages

Mr Tolley was born in Howard County in 1889 graduated from Conshyverse High School in 1905 and attended Marion College for one year While in the University he was a member of the University Band and a member of the Euclidean Circle His major subject was mathematics He was married in 1912 to Zora F Hazlett of Rockville Ind They have three sons Grant 22 Elmer r6 and George 12

Great Men Through the courtesy of James Seyshy

bold Adams 23 of N ew York the alumni office was presented with a copy of a new University of Chicago publishycation entitled Great Men It is a partial listing of those persons who have added to the enlightenment of mankind through endowed professorshyships at the University of Chicago

Great Men the author suggests beget great men If it were possible to trace the genealogy of a scholarly strain of a tradition of an idea Wilshyliam Rainey Harper the flashing comet in the western sky of the unishyverse of learning would be seen to have been one of the most fertile men in

is geometric The minds of hundreds of students who will be the scholars of the next generation are molded by a single master Consider just one line of descent Michelson came to Chicago because Harper was there The group of men who made the Universitys physics department the first in the nashytion came to Chicago because Michelshyson was there and among them was Compton In recent years scores of the countrys most promising young physishycists have come to Chicago because Compton was there A similar successhysion of leaders has come down in every department that Harper made great

Harper had used every form of pershysuasion-short of violence-to lure the scholars of the East into Vhat they reshygarded as the intellectual wilderness His success in the face of his own genushyine concern for the fate of the project marked him as a rare master of the arts of choosing men and winning them

The book then lists the names of the twenty-nine scholars who have helel especia lly endowed chairs There are 1)0W twenty-one endowed chairs at the University of Chicago providing for $TOOOO salaries for men either in special chairs or for men in any field These professorships permit the holder to devote a large part of his time to reshysearch and the guidance 0 f graduate workers

There is no doubt that there is such a thing as an overpaid professor but there is also no doubt that it takes money to secure great men-and it takes great men to make a university great

District Councilors On December 10 there will be a

meeting here on the campus of district councilors representing the twenty-five alumni districts in Indiana This meetshying will be for the purpose of continushying with plans for strengthening our alumni program in this state At the initial meeting last spring the councilshyors were given a complete picture of the University-its plans and problemsshyand were asked for their advice and suggestions It is the hope of the alumni office and of those in charge of the Unishyversitys administration that through this method our alumni may be given the opportunity of greater service to their University In like manner it is hoped that through their aid the Unishyversity can become of greater service to alumni students and to the state

Iltetleciio-ngt by Fowler V Harper Professor of Law and Chairman

of the University Self-Survey Committee

I N REFLECTING on the purposes and objectives of Indiana University it often occurs to me that

the American conception of a university as an instishytution has undergone a change which while almost imperceptable over a few years is of the greatest significance when observed over a long period Hisshytorically the university was in a very real sense an institution of distinctly higher learning It was a place where the student acquired an erudition in the arts law medicine or theology which represented a sophistication of a definitely high order It was a place where the accumulated knowledge and wisdom of the past was subjected to the distillation of medishytative and critical analysis _Later the university became a laboratory for experimental science-a place where the frontiers of 4nowledge were pushed forward in the search for new truth These funcshytions naturally characterized the university as the habitat of thinkers scholars and men of science In short the principal activity of the institution was intellectual both on the part of the students and the teachers The university was a place where the minds of the students were trained and the minds of the professors were exercised and strengthened Actually there was little difference save in degree between the activities of student and the teacher The one received guidance from the other Each reshyceived stimulus from the -other Thus each conshytributed to the education of the other

The thought is inescapable that the modern unishyversity represents an entirely different type of inshystitution both in aims and in procedure We still

pay lip-service to the traditional patshytern We cling to the same names and labels Howshyever the univershysity today is less concerned with the training of the minds of its stushydents than ~ith the organization of their social and moral prejudices and the cultivashytion of skills and techniques which presumably will be useful to them in their economic

Fowler V Harper lives To put it

in another way we are concerned more with trainshying stuqents for action than training them for thought In this sense the steady trend for several generations has been anti-intellectual in character This program is expressed in many ways and imshyplifd in many others The university must prepare its students to fit into some niche in life It must develop the whole life of the student It must extend its personnel activities to reach every phase of his life It must prepare him to mix to earn a living to become a good citizen

It is not to be denied that these are in a sense quite legitimate and proper objectives The emshyphasis -placed thereon however might be interpreted as an attenuated or eliptical analysis of the univershysitys function It might be assumed that such qualishyties or attainments are desirable and in some inshystances indispensable attributes of life itself to which university training will invariably contribute something of value On the other hand emphasis upon such matters as immediate objectives of the university program is calculated to obscure the unique contribution which such training can make to the good life namely subjection of the mind to the rigorous discipline of scholarship and the arduous task of acquiring knowledge It was one of the inarticulate assumptions of the classical univershysity that such discipline and knowledge was in itself a great good and the means to even greater good

The university today may quite justly be charged with seeking to obtain the ultimate ends of educashytion without paying the price or exacting it from its students It is attempting to prepare young people for life without giving them the intellectual equipshyment that for so many centuries has been regarded as a requisite to the most satisfactory mode of life In this gradual shift of emphasis there is I think much that is unwise It constitutes a direct if someshywhat subtle challenge to values which men from the time of the Greeks have held high The university no longer represents Jeffersons ideal of an institushytion for the development of an intellectual aristocshyracy to which all have an opportunity of membershyship-opportunity it should be noted that is as nearly equal as political democracy can make it While I do not abjure completely the so-called practical ideal in education on the college level I cannot help believing that in the long run that training is most practical which contributes most to the intellectual growth of the student and that it is the peculiar province of the university to afford young people such training if necessary at the exshypense of other attainments Lshy I

Even before returning graduates and former stushydents arrived to regi ster in the Union Building Homeshycoming festivities broke loose with the School of Law duck raffle on Friday afternoon Climaxing weeks of libellous insult back and forth in the columns of the Daily Student the post-raffle invasion by the Laws of the Third Street Medic citadel resulted in a water fight (in paper bags) between the two future professhysional groups

That night the hatchet was temporarily interred while the University and its visiting tlumni attended the twenty-sixth annual Powwow in the Mens Gym

As those not inclined to battle ere touring the Quadrangle and adjacent streets eyeing the organshyization houses Homecoming decorations or glimpsing the University and Bloomington from atop the Union tower friends and foes of the Schools of Law and Medicine were over on Jordan field to witness the shyster-quack softball game successor to the bloody football tilts of other years

The Medics won I2-7 and both sides retired to the nearly dry Jordan for a tug-of-war A greased rope had previously been borrowed from the Monon and although it once was used to pull around locomotives and other rolling stock it broke twice during the fray From the second break on it was anybodys guess as to who was doing what White-smocked Medics wearing their black skull-and-crossboned hats pumshymelled the Laws in a free-for-all in the stagnant camshypus creek Favorite trick of the Laws was to get a Medic down and slosh muddy water into his eyes Meanwhile somebody scampered away with the handshylettered thundermug won earlier by the Medics by virtue of their sof tball victory

Three hundred graduates and former students atshytended the luncheon held in Alumni Hall on Saturday noon and a thousand other visitors were served in the University Commons Shortly after twelve oclock visiting Boy Scouts lined up in the field west of the gym each khaki-clad troop behind its council sign placard then began the parade through the city This done Scouts and visitors trekked to the Memorial Stadium here already the horseshoes concrete sides were filling with colorful bits of humanity

Telegraph keys and typewriters hammered and clacked in the press box the ubiquitous program and coke salesmen stalked the aisles one more grade school fan pressed his face between the bars of the fence at the open end of the stadium the JU band

Crimson Makes Initial Touchdown

It was during this game that the Fightin Hoosiers scored their first touchdown of the season but it was not enough to offset the early lead piled up by the vVestern visitors The final SCOre was Kansas State 13 Indiana 6

Putting a patched-up lineup on the field Indiana started off in a determined manner advancing to the Kansas State 20 early in the first quarter This proved to be Indiana s only real scoring threat of the game beside the touchdown march in the fourth quarter

Indiana started from its own 29-yard line Vith Vincent Oliver Joe Nicholson and Swede Clasen carrying the ball Ind iana made three consecutive fi rst downs before a series of passes failed Nicholson attempted a field goal which was blocked

Advancing again to the Kansas State 43 Nicholson tossed a long pass to Graham which was fumbled and Nieman recovered for Kansas State on his own IS

Following an exchange of punts Kansas State took the ball on its own 30 Seelye back to pass was chased back to the Kansas State ra but he eluded a pack of Indiana linemen and passed to Crumbaker on the Kansas State 35 Crumbaker threaded his way down the field to the Indiana 8 Hackney Kansas State fullback plunged to the Indiana 5 where he fumbled Bill Smith recovered for Indiana

Iltetleciio-ngt by Fowler V Harper Professor of Law and Chairman

of the University Self-Survey Committee

I N REFLECTING on the purposes and objectives of Indiana University it often occurs to me that

the American conception of a university as an instishytution has undergone a change which while almost imperceptable over a few years is of the greatest significance when observed over a long period Hisshytorically the university was in a very real sense an institution of distinctly higher learning It was a place where the student acquired an erudition in the arts law medicine or theology which represented a sophistication of a definitely high order It was a place where the accumulated knowledge and wisdom of the past was subjected to the distillation of medishytative and critical analysis _Later the university became a laboratory for experimental science-a place where the frontiers of 4nowledge were pushed forward in the search for new truth These funcshytions naturally characterized the university as the habitat of thinkers scholars and men of science In short the principal activity of the institution was intellectual both on the part of the students and the teachers The university was a place where the minds of the students were trained and the minds of the professors were exercised and strengthened Actually there was little difference save in degree between the activities of student and the teacher The one received guidance from the other Each reshyceived stimulus from the -other Thus each conshytributed to the education of the other

The thought is inescapable that the modern unishyversity represents an entirely different type of inshystitution both in aims and in procedure We still

pay lip-service to the traditional patshytern We cling to the same names and labels Howshyever the univershysity today is less concerned with the training of the minds of its stushydents than ~ith the organization of their social and moral prejudices and the cultivashytion of skills and techniques which presumably will be useful to them in their economic

Fowler V Harper lives To put it

in another way we are concerned more with trainshying stuqents for action than training them for thought In this sense the steady trend for several generations has been anti-intellectual in character This program is expressed in many ways and imshyplifd in many others The university must prepare its students to fit into some niche in life It must develop the whole life of the student It must extend its personnel activities to reach every phase of his life It must prepare him to mix to earn a living to become a good citizen

It is not to be denied that these are in a sense quite legitimate and proper objectives The emshyphasis -placed thereon however might be interpreted as an attenuated or eliptical analysis of the univershysitys function It might be assumed that such qualishyties or attainments are desirable and in some inshystances indispensable attributes of life itself to which university training will invariably contribute something of value On the other hand emphasis upon such matters as immediate objectives of the university program is calculated to obscure the unique contribution which such training can make to the good life namely subjection of the mind to the rigorous discipline of scholarship and the arduous task of acquiring knowledge It was one of the inarticulate assumptions of the classical univershysity that such discipline and knowledge was in itself a great good and the means to even greater good

The university today may quite justly be charged with seeking to obtain the ultimate ends of educashytion without paying the price or exacting it from its students It is attempting to prepare young people for life without giving them the intellectual equipshyment that for so many centuries has been regarded as a requisite to the most satisfactory mode of life In this gradual shift of emphasis there is I think much that is unwise It constitutes a direct if someshywhat subtle challenge to values which men from the time of the Greeks have held high The university no longer represents Jeffersons ideal of an institushytion for the development of an intellectual aristocshyracy to which all have an opportunity of membershyship-opportunity it should be noted that is as nearly equal as political democracy can make it While I do not abjure completely the so-called practical ideal in education on the college level I cannot help believing that in the long run that training is most practical which contributes most to the intellectual growth of the student and that it is the peculiar province of the university to afford young people such training if necessary at the exshypense of other attainments Lshy I

Even before returning graduates and former stushydents arrived to regi ster in the Union Building Homeshycoming festivities broke loose with the School of Law duck raffle on Friday afternoon Climaxing weeks of libellous insult back and forth in the columns of the Daily Student the post-raffle invasion by the Laws of the Third Street Medic citadel resulted in a water fight (in paper bags) between the two future professhysional groups

As those not inclined to battle ere touring the Quadrangle and adjacent streets eyeing the organshyization houses Homecoming decorations or glimpsing the University and Bloomington from atop the Union tower friends and foes of the Schools of Law and Medicine were over on Jordan field to witness the shyster-quack softball game successor to the bloody football tilts of other years

The Medics won I2-7 and both sides retired to the nearly dry Jordan for a tug-of-war A greased rope had previously been borrowed from the Monon and although it once was used to pull around locomotives and other rolling stock it broke twice during the fray From the second break on it was anybodys guess as to who was doing what White-smocked Medics wearing their black skull-and-crossboned hats pumshymelled the Laws in a free-for-all in the stagnant camshypus creek Favorite trick of the Laws was to get a Medic down and slosh muddy water into his eyes Meanwhile somebody scampered away with the handshylettered thundermug won earlier by the Medics by virtue of their sof tball victory

Three hundred graduates and former students atshytended the luncheon held in Alumni Hall on Saturday noon and a thousand other visitors were served in the University Commons Shortly after twelve oclock visiting Boy Scouts lined up in the field west of the gym each khaki-clad troop behind its council sign placard then began the parade through the city This done Scouts and visitors trekked to the Memorial Stadium here already the horseshoes concrete sides were filling with colorful bits of humanity

The appointment of Howard R Tolshyley TO as chief of the newly constishytuted Bureau of Agricultural Economshyics in the United States Department of Agriculture was recently announced by Secretary Henry A Wallace This Bureau the secretary announced will include all general programming and planning for adjustment conservation and marketing programs of the deshypartment It will include the Program Planning Division and the general planning for the marketing programs heretofore in the AAA with which Mr Tolley has been associated for the last five years and since June 1936 as adshymin istrator

After graduation Mr Tolley taught for a short time in the high school in Michigan City Ind In 1912 he went to Vashington as mathematician in the Coast and Geodetic Survey and in 1916 became a scientific assistant in farm management in the United States Deshypartment of Agriculture In 1930 he left Washington to become Director of the Giannini Foundation of Agriculshytural Economics He has written proshyfusely A Jist of his published works fills more than six closely typewritten pages

Mr Tolley was born in Howard County in 1889 graduated from Conshyverse High School in 1905 and attended Marion College for one year While in the University he was a member of the University Band and a member of the Euclidean Circle His major subject was mathematics He was married in 1912 to Zora F Hazlett of Rockville Ind They have three sons Grant 22 Elmer r6 and George 12

Great Men Through the courtesy of James Seyshy

bold Adams 23 of N ew York the alumni office was presented with a copy of a new University of Chicago publishycation entitled Great Men It is a partial listing of those persons who have added to the enlightenment of mankind through endowed professorshyships at the University of Chicago

Great Men the author suggests beget great men If it were possible to trace the genealogy of a scholarly strain of a tradition of an idea Wilshyliam Rainey Harper the flashing comet in the western sky of the unishyverse of learning would be seen to have been one of the most fertile men in

is geometric The minds of hundreds of students who will be the scholars of the next generation are molded by a single master Consider just one line of descent Michelson came to Chicago because Harper was there The group of men who made the Universitys physics department the first in the nashytion came to Chicago because Michelshyson was there and among them was Compton In recent years scores of the countrys most promising young physishycists have come to Chicago because Compton was there A similar successhysion of leaders has come down in every department that Harper made great

Harper had used every form of pershysuasion-short of violence-to lure the scholars of the East into Vhat they reshygarded as the intellectual wilderness His success in the face of his own genushyine concern for the fate of the project marked him as a rare master of the arts of choosing men and winning them

The book then lists the names of the twenty-nine scholars who have helel especia lly endowed chairs There are 1)0W twenty-one endowed chairs at the University of Chicago providing for $TOOOO salaries for men either in special chairs or for men in any field These professorships permit the holder to devote a large part of his time to reshysearch and the guidance 0 f graduate workers

There is no doubt that there is such a thing as an overpaid professor but there is also no doubt that it takes money to secure great men-and it takes great men to make a university great

District Councilors On December 10 there will be a

meeting here on the campus of district councilors representing the twenty-five alumni districts in Indiana This meetshying will be for the purpose of continushying with plans for strengthening our alumni program in this state At the initial meeting last spring the councilshyors were given a complete picture of the University-its plans and problemsshyand were asked for their advice and suggestions It is the hope of the alumni office and of those in charge of the Unishyversitys administration that through this method our alumni may be given the opportunity of greater service to their University In like manner it is hoped that through their aid the Unishyversity can become of greater service to alumni students and to the state

Iltetleciio-ngt by Fowler V Harper Professor of Law and Chairman

of the University Self-Survey Committee

I N REFLECTING on the purposes and objectives of Indiana University it often occurs to me that

the American conception of a university as an instishytution has undergone a change which while almost imperceptable over a few years is of the greatest significance when observed over a long period Hisshytorically the university was in a very real sense an institution of distinctly higher learning It was a place where the student acquired an erudition in the arts law medicine or theology which represented a sophistication of a definitely high order It was a place where the accumulated knowledge and wisdom of the past was subjected to the distillation of medishytative and critical analysis _Later the university became a laboratory for experimental science-a place where the frontiers of 4nowledge were pushed forward in the search for new truth These funcshytions naturally characterized the university as the habitat of thinkers scholars and men of science In short the principal activity of the institution was intellectual both on the part of the students and the teachers The university was a place where the minds of the students were trained and the minds of the professors were exercised and strengthened Actually there was little difference save in degree between the activities of student and the teacher The one received guidance from the other Each reshyceived stimulus from the -other Thus each conshytributed to the education of the other

The thought is inescapable that the modern unishyversity represents an entirely different type of inshystitution both in aims and in procedure We still

pay lip-service to the traditional patshytern We cling to the same names and labels Howshyever the univershysity today is less concerned with the training of the minds of its stushydents than ~ith the organization of their social and moral prejudices and the cultivashytion of skills and techniques which presumably will be useful to them in their economic

MUCH water has passed over the dam since I tried to run or talk a point for Indiana in track or

debate Or since that time back in 1913 when attendshying what I remember as Indianas first state basketball tournament I spent a night talking with Dutch Krause at the Phi Psi house His fame as the man who had beaten Ohio State in football was still the talk of the campus then Now a quarter of a century later my only chance to wave the cream and crimson is the trip halhvay across Ohio to Columbus to root every time Indiana plays O S U

But remembrances of things past remain The old board walks or the early spring trip to Arbutus Hill are still fresh in memory And scattered over the world are people who have a deep but rarely expressed affection for Indiana They are just neither bigwigs nor small fry-just average citizens rubbing shoulders with other average citizens Many are in the smaller places like I am And like me many are tempted to stop every car with Indiana licenses that goes through town and ask the occupants what part of the Hoosi er state they hail from

The November 1938 8

The University 111 October cA Review of the Months Academic Life Campus Affairs

Autumn Leaves - and 1 U News in Brief

T H E Halloween month found the University campus hitting its usual stride of work and study

play and progress Now that the rush of registration and the start of another academic calendar are all past the freshmen co-eds locked into their appropr iate orshyganization niches and the library rules and regulashytions mastered the life undergraduate buckles dOm in real earnest

Beneath the campus trees painted now by autumn with the warm and faded colors of an old Oriental rug hurry the Universitys six thousand students each intent on the problems of hi s day and collectively inshytent on education-and its sidelines Gray-clad R O T C cadets dash for the drill field for the first Thursshyday afternoon review piles of books tilt crazily on research tables in the library stacks resolute students jack-knifed doggedly over newly-purchased textbooks under the goose-neck study lamps in the Fourth Street rooming houses and anyone seen without a leathershycovered notebook under his arm must be on his way to a dance

Assembly Hall Is Razed

It being nothing in hi s young life the casual freshshyman alks around the roped-off Assembly Hall deshymolition as though it were a usual thing But many an upperclassman and faculty member pauses to mark the passing of a campus landmark built in 1896 as the mens gym T hirteen Commencements have come and gone in the old rambling frame structure and it was there that President Emeritus William Lowe Bryan was inaugurated in 1903 Six yea rs later a swimming pool was added to the building but since then a stage has covered the spot Campus legend has it that the stage as built especially for the appearance of Maude Adams and her travelling troupe and the old audi- torium has housed such notables as Otis Skinner De Volfe Hopper and Forbes Robinson The first (1922) Jordan River Revue was staged there and during the war Assembly Hall was used as an army balTacks

But enough of backward-looking Other October campus highlights included the state library convenshytion and its attendant publishers displays in the latshyticed booths set up in Alumni Hall the Homecoming Day meeting of the Indiana sect ion of the American

Chemical Society and the th ree-clay undergraduate banking short course sponsored by the University the Indiana Bankers Association and the Indiana Departshyment of Financial Institutions At the chemistry meetshying Dr H T Briscoe new head of the LV chemistry department spoke on the place of that science in the University curriculum Professor F C Mathers adshydressed the group on Recent Studies in Electroshyplating

Men at Work in Forest Primeval

Back to his old haunts comes Robert Simpson ex32 to do what he can with the campus trees Simpson now a tree surgeon asserts that it is still possible to save some of the ancient beeches and oaks many of them two and a half centuries old His technique is to pull his teardrop-shaped auto trailer up to the tree needing attention pull open the hatch take out his tools and he and his gang go to work

So as the trees are patched and Assembly Hall comes down the new Union Building lounge goes up Under the clear and surprisingly warm skies of the month work is forging ahead on the stone-walled new lounge for men Present plans call for wood panelling inside and regular he-man furniture This room ill be for men only and co-eds will be admitted to the present lounge

Silas the Chore Boy was the opening Univershysity Theater performance of the season and campus first-nighters jammed Alumni Hall to hi ss the vi lla in

Assembly Hall is coming down

cheer the hero and sigh with the disshytressed heroine No sooner did the curtain fall on the last performance than the stage craft crew resumed its pounding and painting in Mitchell Hall to fashion sets for the next proshyduction the Broadway hit Stage Door

Salesman Go Way From My Door

October is also the month of the undergraduate salesmen Blue Key members pace determinedly from orshyganization house to house urging members to buy their athletic ticket yearbooks neophytes on the Arbutus staff open their sales campaign Unishyversity Theater ticket hawkers collar their friends on the campus paths and Music Series salesmen begin the drive for paid attendance

And so the month goes Dr Rayshymond Pearl biologist of J olms Hopshykins University concludes his lecture series on Man the Animal business school seniors apply for the $250 loan scholarship awarded annually by the American Bankers Association over at Forest Hall some student equestrishyenne hangs a Horse for Sale sign f rom her dormitory window the Indishyana School of Religion starts a camshypaign to obtain funds for a building student politicians invite representashytives of both major parties to speak at campus gatherings more russet leaves float down to the campus paths and a returning senior who had been out of school for six years gets lost in the maze of new structures

Bankers Conference

Some 250 bank officers junior exshyeClltives and employes of 140 Hoosier banks were on the campus for the three-day bankers conference Octoshyber 24-26 Oscar Cravens prep88 officially opened the short courses by introducing James A Stuart OJ manshyaging editor of the Indianapolis Star who presided at the fi rst two sessions

After an address of welcome by President Herman B Wells and reshysponses by Ross H Wallace director of the Indiana Department of Finanshycial Institutions and Robert H Myers bankers association president the banker-students settled down to serishyous classroom work with six classes per day on the schedule Outstanding authorities in banking lectured to the classes and at nights there were dinshyners and addresses in the Union Buildshymg

Dr Harold Stonier executive manshyager of the American Bankers Assoshyciation and for ten years its national

educational director spoke at the dinshyner session on October 24 on the subshyject Why Educate

The Man for the Job

Alumni are eligible to use the servshyices of the Personnel and Placement Bureau of the University it was anshynounced by C W Barker acting dean of the School of Business Adminisshytration Dean Barker pointed out that between one and two hundred alumni are registered at various times and the bureau will be glad to refer calls f rom employers to the various alumni who are qualified for the positions open

Interested alumni should write to the bureau for a personal data sheet to list their qualifications and experishyence for the information of employers who call for applicants for positions Last year-the third for the bureaushy853 per cent of the business seniors were placed

School of Law

In his autumn report to the Law School Committee of the Board of Trustees Dean Bernard C Gavit reshyvealed that the present first-year enshyrollment is fifty-one and a total of 141 are enrolled in the School A loss in regular enrollment of twenty-two students is accounted for by the small third-year class (first to enter under the three-year requirement plan) and the fact that last June the faculty exshycluded thirteen second-year students and one third-year student on the grounds of scholastic deficiency

New to the Law School this year is the grading system of pass with disshytinction pass and fail and being worked out is the new plan of compreshyhensive examinations The rule against extra-curricular activities for budding lawyers has met with whole-hearted cooperation on the part of the student body the report states

This year every six freshmen law students have a faculty sponsor and are welcome as are other students in the school to consult with faculty members during regular office hours In the air are plans for the installation of the honor system in the Law School

School of Medicine

The sophomore class is a roo per cent Indiana University affair this fall according to Mark P Helm 94 registrar who says that the class is composed entirely a f students proshymoted from Bloomington However that hasnt simplified his problem of

what to do with the Warrens There are three of them C B and W B who are brothers from Marshall and J c of Winchester no relation to the other two But to make matters more complex all are 37

Another honor came to the School of Medicine recelltly when Karl R Ruddell MDI 1 was elected president of the Indiana State Medical Assoshyciation He is a widely known Indianshyapolis physician and succeeds Dr Herman Baker of Evansville

School of Dentistry

Several members of the faculty preshysented lectures or clinics at the annual meeting of the American Dental Assoshyciation held in St Louis during the week of October 24

Other activities of the school inshycluded a symposium on the causes of dental decay by Drs G T Gregory and D A Boyd before the Jay County Dental Society on October 7 and Actshying Dean G D Timons read a paper Dental Medicine before the Cincinshynati Dental Society at its regular monthly meeting for October

Indianapolis Extension

Of the 2287 persons enrolled at the LU Extension Center in Indianapolis over Jooo were not taking work there last year according to a report by Mary Orvis AM18 executive secreshytary She reports that more than a third of the persons enrolled in credit courses are not working for credit and about 600 persons are enrolled in non-credit popular lecture courses in social anthropology interior decorashytion representative thinkers painting demonstration and a history series on Our Historians Look at Europe 10shyday

Tribute

Over the airlanes recently went a tribute to the late Blythe Q Hendshyricks former librarian of the School of Medicine at Indianapolis Speaking f rom a sports broadcast Norman Perry Jr NIRE announcer reshyviewed the career of Mr Hendricks first man to broadcast a baseball game from Indianapolis and the first anshynouncer to send news of the state basketball tournament over the air A lawyer by profession and secretary of the Indianapolis Board of Public Safety at the time of his death late in August Hendricks had a wide circle of friends among University and newspaper folks He was deeply and sincerely interested in all things Hoosier the I ndmiddotianapolis Timiddot1Ites comshymented editorially

That His Work May Live On Memorial Is Created In State Library to the Late

Charles Kettleborough 07 AM08 PhD16

o HONOR the memory of the late Dr CharlesT Kettleborough for many years head of the states legislative reference bureau a memorial collection of books is being placed in the Indiana State Library Many alumni and other friends of the Indiana star student of thirty years ago are active in this tribute to his memory

In keeping with the life work of Dr Kettleborough books on the subjects of government and public adshyministration will be purchased for the special collecshytion Christopher B Coleman director of the historishycal bureau of the state department of education has announced that the volumes will be marked by a meshymorial bookplate designed by Frederick Polley

Rarely has a man in Indiana or any other state devoted his great talent throughout his adult lifetime to his commonwealth as did Dr Charles Kettleshyborough reads the announcement of the memorial committee Beyond the story of his career in the legisshylative reference bureau lies the story of Dr Kettleshyborough s undergraduate life on the Bloomington camshypus agd beyond that of his boyhood in the small Hoosier town of Topeka

I knew him from childhood writes A J Yoder ex95 clerk-treasurer of the town of Topeka we were pals for many years during his boyhood and young manhood years in Topeka He was an incomshyparable companion to whose untimely death [Dr Kettleborough was struck by an automobile last March] I shall never become entirely reconciled

iVe hiked many and many a mile together Mr Yoder continues taught school in the same townshyship worked summers together as partners on the railshyroad as section hands I taught him to smoke a pipe I shall never forget that occasion-how sick he was after smoking that first pipeful and how he lay across my bed the palest live white man I ever saw

And now my oid pal is gone He lies in a treeless flowerless cheerless cemetery in the family lot of the Bylers who took him to raise when he was a homeless waif English born four years old had it not been for the care and devotion of this plain Mennonite family consisting of the parents and four daughters-there was no son-who lavished on Charlie

the same love they would have gi ven a natural son and brother his career would have been a very differshyent one Were it otherwise you would not now be honoring his memory

In the minds of many a University official state legislator and other figures in public life linger memshyories of Dr Kettleborough and his office in the Stateshyhouse To him there came hundreds of citizens seekshying answers to questions of public administration His great talent his painstaking thoroughness and his frank and open approach made his life a symbol of service to his fellow man The fruits of his labors are written on the statute books (If the state and the kindshyliness of his manner engraved in the hearts of all who knew him

His work in the legislative reference bureau was outstanding according to L A Pittenger 07 AM08 president of Ball State Teachers Colllege and a classmate in the University of Dr Kettleborough Always quiet composed and thoughtful he rendered a very effective service to all legislators and through them to the State of Indiana

Dr Kettleborough never married His Ii fe centered around his work for others Except for vacation trips to Alaska and Hawaii for his favorite sport of mounshytain-climbing and visits to the state parks and his Unishyversity Dr Kettleboroughs orbit was his Indianapolis hotel residence the Statehouse and the state library

I t is especially fitting that the memorial to him be located in the Indiana State Library in which much of his interest centered during his mature life It is also fitting that the memorial be useful and unostentatious as was the career of this most useful of citizens

Many contributions have been received at Dr Coleshymans office in the State Library where alumni may obshytain information on the memorial It is expected that a sum of over a thousand dollars will be established The memorial was suggested and begun by friends of Dr Kettleborough among them Thomas A Hendricks Joe Rand Beckett Joseph A Andrew Walter S Greenshyough 10 Albert Stump 12 Leo M Rappaport Edward D Farmer eX99 Earl Crawford Mrs James L Murray DeWitt S Morgan Herbert P Kenney and Christopher B Coleman

This is Rosebud Agency its children and their homes and its primary schoolroom

I Teach Indian Children by MARGARET WINSLOvV )2

[Miss Winslows address Rosebud Agency South Dawta turned up just tantalizingly enough in the files to make us decide th ere must be a storv there There Was This is it-EnrToRs NOTE]

My HEART skipped a beat when I received a telegram last January noti fying me to leave my

home near Salem Ind and report for duty at Rosebud Agency South Dakota as soon as possible That was an unheard-of country all anyone seemed to know was the fact tha t it as out west somewhere near the big round-ups and dust regions Maps didn t help much except to show a few little towns the Indian reservashytions and a big open space labeled The Badlands

I was told to go by train to a little town in Nebraska hich as thirty-si x miles from the Agency here I was to be met by- 1 didnt know who I had visions of being welcomed in the middle of the night by Big Chief So-and-So riding to Rosebud in a buckboard or at least a Model T because the roads couldn t be very good and there was snow on the ground To my surshy

prise (and relief ) the principal of edushycation and his wi fe were there took me with them to the Agency ane gave me a bed for the rest of the night

I was awakened by church bells that beshying Sunciay mornshying and my first imshypression of Rosebud was a little town of snow-topped houses

Margaret Winslow protected on all sides

by big hills a big country ith nothing but hills and canyons to break the sameness of the landscape Even the trees were hidden dOwn in the deep canyons Quite different from our Indiana hill s and trees but interestshying in its vastness beautiful especially in the spring when the prairies are covered with the blossoms o f wild roses and cacti

Quarters for employes are quite comfortable I live in a club where each two people have a furnished suite of two rooms and bath Rosebud has all the modern conshyveniences of a city-except that the shopping di strict is crowded into two general stores Lights water and sewage systems are all government owned and mainshytained A good-s ized dam has made a little lake which is grand for skating in winter or swimming boating and fi shing in summer

Everyone goes in for sports because we are isolated enough so that we have to do our own entertaining A tennis club keeps up the courts a golf club maintains a course near hear and some o f the men have organized a gun club Good riding horses are close while pheasshyants and coyotes are plenti ful if one likes t o hunt

Unlike public school teachers the Indian service teachers are on duty twelve months of the year--nine months in the class room and the other three doing some kind of community work I was detailed to supervise 4-H Club work this summer and was proud of the Roseshybud clubs taking first honors on their exhibits at the Sioux Fair in the fall

Schools are of two types The boarding school for the whole reservation and the community day schools Both are equipped and mainta ined by the government Children are sent to boarding school after they finish the eigh th grade or if they live too far away to attend a day school Here the pupils are furni shed everything from handkerchiefs to pencils (Continued on page 28)

Alumni Authors Reviews of Prof W T Morgans Last Volume on British

History and John Wilcox 11 on Moliere

The Relation of koliere 10 Restoration Comedy By John Wilcox 1 I Associa te Professor of English Wayne University ( New York Columbia Univershysity Press London Oxford University Press etc 1938 Pp ix 240 Appendices bibliography and index $3 )

The comedy of the E nglish Restoration was not the child of Moliere-such is the theme of this book E mshybarking upon such a perilous enterprise as a new study of the literary influence of an author upon a whole school of writers in another country Dr vVilcox states his determination to maintain a sound and consistent judgment in a field where the evidence had already proshyduced a large body of contradictory conclusions

In order to do this he offers first a chapter on The Background and second one on The Method with the following heads literary commonplace commonshyplace of the theater social commonplace commonplace of life identifying peculiarities literary influence These principles are timely and seem to be soundly apshyplied in determining the question of influence

He feels that earlier students of this question have too much adopted extreme positions either exaggeratshying the influence of Moliere upon Restoration comedy or conceding entirely too little influence

He has therefore made a thorough appraisal of all alleged parallels in Restoration comedy and has in sevshyeral cases reached a different conclusion from those of his predecessors for example he denies influence of Moliere upon George Etherege cited as an outstanding imitator by Wurzback Miles and others and finds little in Vanbrugh and Crovvne He maintains moreshyover that certain Restoration tendencies assigned too briskly to Moliere were already working in pre-Moliere days and should be assigned to Ben Jonson Fletcher and Shirley

Dr Wilcox backs up his appraisal with a quantitative table-tables are usually conspicuous by their absence in such involved studies where they are most needed-of thirty-eight plays (about 20 per cent of the total of Resshytoration comedies) which have some connection with Moliere (page 179)

The writers who were really important in bringing Moliere to England were Dryden Shadwell Wychershyley and Ravenscroft Rarely would Dr vVilcox conshycede that the true spirit and philosophy of the French

dramatist were acquired it was mainly his plots and comic devices Hence his conclusion that the influellce of Moliere was only one element in the development of Restoration comedy

It is possible that Dr Wilcox underestimates the conshytribution of a pioneer in this study Dr Dudley Miles whose thesis in this same series was accepted by a Coshylumbia University jury in 1910 Of course we expect critical method in estimating literary influence to make great strides in twenty-eight years Dr vVilcox has conshysidered it necessary as we have seen to devote an imshyportant chapter to a new critica l method Dr Miles can hardly be blamed for judging the influence of Moliere in accordance with the conventions of his time

We hope that this fine book of Dr Wilcox will prove impregnable and that another Columbia jury will not reverse the verdict in 1966 BERT E YOUNG

Fightin Hoosiers Varsity Grid Squad Riddled by Injuries But Views November

Schedule With Undamaged Morale

by GEORGE L GARDNER 34

Assistant to Director of Athletics

[For news of the Indiana-Kansas State game see the story Alumni Return for Homecoming starting on page 5]

S Indiana Universitys football team headed into n the second half of its difficult schedule last weekshyend against Visconsin prospects were some brighter than the results of the first half o f the season show on the record

The Hoosier squad which is now made up of fortyshysix varsity candidates has been beset by ill fortune ever since the opening game of the season against Ohio State

The coaches at the outset of the season realized that fundamentally the squad was a good football team but one vvhich would need the valuable experience to be gained only in actual competition before it could be counted upon as a reliable machine In this regard there has been some noticeable improvement but on the other hand the varsity combination has been caught off stride since that first game

The inexperience of the various sophomores used has not been the entire reason that the team has faltered even though this factor is not to be overlooked Injuries to key men or players expected to carry a greater part of the burden this fall has caused an almost constant revision of the offensive plans and there has been a reshysultant lack of co-ordination and consistency in the Indiana attack

A Crimson pass in the first quarter of the Ohio State game

A greater part of the li st of injured has not been made public The fact is that most of the players who have been hurt are those who received a little more atshytention during the pre-season practice than those who have been carrying the burden Consequently there has been a great deal of work to be done over and naturally the response has not been as spontaneous as could be expected from a more experienced group of players

Squad Dogged by Injuries

In the opening game against Ohio State two fine sophomore members of the backfield were hurt and have been unable to play since They are Joe Tofil a fullback and Cobb Lewis a halfback Undoubtedly the loss of these two men has Ctlt down the efficiency of the planned attack for the season Also in this game Russell Sloss a center was injured and was unable to play in the Illinois game

In the lIIinois game Lawrence Usher a sophomore guard received a broken collarbone and is out for the season Captain Paul Graham received a severely wrenched knee Frank Petrick regular right end su fshyfered a broken finger and missed the Nebraska and Kansas State games John Widaman end Joe Nicholshyson Harold Hursh and Eddie Herbert all sophomore backs came out of the contest with bad charley horses As a result of weak ankles John J anzaruk another end was unable to play at Illinois but despite his physical handicap has been used at right end to replace Petrick owing to lack of substitutes at thi s position William Smith who was regular left guard at the start of the season has been on a part-time basis since the Illinois game owing to a bruised hip Vincent Oliver halfshyback who has been shifted to fullback has been handishycapped by a sprained wrist while Archie Harris giant sophomore negro end was hurt on the eve of the Kansas State game while participating in a game in a physical education class Harold Zimmer another sophomore back has a sprained ankle

Despite this list of casualties from which at one time twelve players were out of service the squad has never lost its morale nor will to win This in spite of the treshymendous amount of work which has had to be done to

Ohio State 6 Indiana 0

In the opening game of the season agai nst Ohio State Indiana Aashed its most brilliant and consistent attack revealed so far thi s season The Hoosiers appeared se t for an early arrival and a fine season following this conshytest which was practically all Indiana despite the fact that Ohio State won the game 6-0 Indiana completely dominated the play for all but four minutes and forty seconds of the ball game and it was during this time that Ohio State fashioned its only sustained drive of the afternoon marching seventy yards for the touchshydown

In the first quarter of the game Ohio State was unshyable to gain but Indiana taking a punt on its own twenty-nine sped off to a first down on the Indiana forty-three F ollowi ng several punt exchanges Hursh tried a long pass to Petrick but it was intercepted by Langhurst of Ohio State on Ohios twenty-eight

Scott was thrown for a ten-yard loss as the quarter ended and the Buckeyes kicked to Graham on the Inshydiana twenty-two-yard line Neither side was able to gain consistently although Indiana retained possession of the ball most of the time Langhurst took Nicholshysons punt on Ohios sixteen and advanced to the Ohio thirty-five A pass a nd a cutback by Ohio State put Ohio State on the Indiana forty-eight for its first trip into Hoosier territory Indiana made three first downs in a row as the half ended

In the third quarter Indiana completely dominated the play Ohio State had possession of the ball only three times during which it attempted only five plays

INDIANA ALUMNI llAGAZINE

T o start the second half Tofil ran with the kickoff to the Indiana thirty-six Nicholson made a first down on the Indiana forty-six Clasen and Tofil made it fir st down on the Ohio forty-two Tofil and Nicholson teamed in carrying the ball to the Ohio twenty-five where Indiana was penalized for offside Nicholsons pass to Clasen was knocked down on the five-yard line Ohio State punted out and Indiana started again from its own thirty-one Tofils bucking and Nicholsons passing took the Hoosiers to the Ohio twenty-four During this march Nicholson completed a pass to Petrick on the Ohio State ten but the Hoosiers were penalized for holding and the play nullified Ohio Sta te steadied and Indiana was forced to punt Ohio State returned the punt and Olivers long pass was intercepted by Kabealo on Ohios fourteen Kabealo returning to the Indiana forty-nine where he was caught by Harri s

Ohio State then started its march From hi s on thirty Welbaum picked up eleven yards on the Sta tue of Liberty play Scott picked up seven yards and then took a pass from Sexton on the Indiana thirty-one Sexton passed to tVelbaum on the Indiana twenty-one and ski rted left end to the Indiana eleven Sexton then passed to Scott for the touchdown

Indiana stormed back with a rush tossing passes frantically but was unable to fashion a consistent drive On a combination of passes and running plays the Hoosiers advanced to the Ohio twenty-one but Indiana

f was penalized fifteen yards for holding The lastshyminute long pass to Archie Harris missed connection on the Ohio fifteen to end Indianas last scoring threat

Against Illinois the Hoosiers received no better breaks than they did against the Buckeyes There Inshydianas fumbling and errors counted heavily against the Hoosiers Following a short kickoff received by Illinois Indiana was constantly forced back by the superior punting displayed by Illinois The first bad break came

The two teams see-sawed back and forth on the field as the half ended

To start the second half Clasen kicked from the Indishyana sixteen to Elting who returned to the Indiana forty-two Illinois advanced the ball tothe Indiana twentyshyeight Wehrli shagged a pass and ran the ball to the Indishyana thirteen then plunged to the four-yard line From there Brewer plunged over for the touchdown

Petersons pass running to the Illinois forty-two Nicholson passed to Herbert on the Illinois thirty-one and completed another one on the Illinois thirteen Line plays failing Nicholson passed to Widaman This was the disputed play of the game The ball bounced out of Widamans hands and apparently was touched by an Illinois player before it was retrieved by Herbert on the Illinois two-yard line The officials after some discusshysion ruled that the Illinois player had not touched the ball and it was Illinois ball on their own eighteen

On the next play the Illinois pass from center was wide and Indiana was awarded two points on a safety

Following the kickoff Indiana started on another drive which took them to the Illinois thirty-seven beshyfore Nicholsons pass was intercepted on the Illinois nineteen Following a punt exchange Indiana started clown the field again from its own twenty-seven adshyvancing largely by passes to the Illinois thirty-four Hursh passed to Rucinski who dropped the ball on the Illinois four-yard line Hursh passed to Widaman on Illinois twenty-three and his next toss was intercepted by Wehrli who returned to the Illinois thirty-two Folshylowing another punt exchange Indiana once more started from its own forty- (Continued on page jI)

1LCAZI NE office the other day from Edwin C McMulshylen 04 Pine Bluff (Ark) physician it seemed too good to pass up

While a message was being sent to Dr McMullen asking for proof of his prowess there arrived by some strange quirk letters from three other alumni in widely separated parts of the country telling of their success in hunting and or fishing in their sections

Kenneth Lee Wagner ex36 of Corpus Christi Texas reported that he was enjoying the best hunting and fishing in the U S and this information was passed along to the Arkansas doctor with the results noted below From iVoodburn Ore came Keith OHairs (exz9) word that tuna fi shing couldnt be beat out there and the inference that hunting vvasnt the whole story of sport At about the same time John A Elliott exI8 Kansas City (Kan) dentist reported on his vacation in Canada and the thirty-pound lake ~outhecaughtupthere

Beneath the campus trees painted now by autumn with the warm and faded colors of an old Oriental rug hurry the Universitys six thousand students each intent on the problems of hi s day and collectively inshytent on education-and its sidelines Gray-clad R O T C cadets dash for the drill field for the first Thursshyday afternoon review piles of books tilt crazily on research tables in the library stacks resolute students jack-knifed doggedly over newly-purchased textbooks under the goose-neck study lamps in the Fourth Street rooming houses and anyone seen without a leathershycovered notebook under his arm must be on his way to a dance

Assembly Hall Is Razed

It being nothing in hi s young life the casual freshshyman alks around the roped-off Assembly Hall deshymolition as though it were a usual thing But many an upperclassman and faculty member pauses to mark the passing of a campus landmark built in 1896 as the mens gym T hirteen Commencements have come and gone in the old rambling frame structure and it was there that President Emeritus William Lowe Bryan was inaugurated in 1903 Six yea rs later a swimming pool was added to the building but since then a stage has covered the spot Campus legend has it that the stage as built especially for the appearance of Maude Adams and her travelling troupe and the old audi- torium has housed such notables as Otis Skinner De Volfe Hopper and Forbes Robinson The first (1922) Jordan River Revue was staged there and during the war Assembly Hall was used as an army balTacks

But enough of backward-looking Other October campus highlights included the state library convenshytion and its attendant publishers displays in the latshyticed booths set up in Alumni Hall the Homecoming Day meeting of the Indiana sect ion of the American

Chemical Society and the th ree-clay undergraduate banking short course sponsored by the University the Indiana Bankers Association and the Indiana Departshyment of Financial Institutions At the chemistry meetshying Dr H T Briscoe new head of the LV chemistry department spoke on the place of that science in the University curriculum Professor F C Mathers adshydressed the group on Recent Studies in Electroshyplating

Men at Work in Forest Primeval

Back to his old haunts comes Robert Simpson ex32 to do what he can with the campus trees Simpson now a tree surgeon asserts that it is still possible to save some of the ancient beeches and oaks many of them two and a half centuries old His technique is to pull his teardrop-shaped auto trailer up to the tree needing attention pull open the hatch take out his tools and he and his gang go to work

So as the trees are patched and Assembly Hall comes down the new Union Building lounge goes up Under the clear and surprisingly warm skies of the month work is forging ahead on the stone-walled new lounge for men Present plans call for wood panelling inside and regular he-man furniture This room ill be for men only and co-eds will be admitted to the present lounge

School of Law

In his autumn report to the Law School Committee of the Board of Trustees Dean Bernard C Gavit reshyvealed that the present first-year enshyrollment is fifty-one and a total of 141 are enrolled in the School A loss in regular enrollment of twenty-two students is accounted for by the small third-year class (first to enter under the three-year requirement plan) and the fact that last June the faculty exshycluded thirteen second-year students and one third-year student on the grounds of scholastic deficiency

New to the Law School this year is the grading system of pass with disshytinction pass and fail and being worked out is the new plan of compreshyhensive examinations The rule against extra-curricular activities for budding lawyers has met with whole-hearted cooperation on the part of the student body the report states

This year every six freshmen law students have a faculty sponsor and are welcome as are other students in the school to consult with faculty members during regular office hours In the air are plans for the installation of the honor system in the Law School

That His Work May Live On Memorial Is Created In State Library to the Late

Charles Kettleborough 07 AM08 PhD16

o HONOR the memory of the late Dr CharlesT Kettleborough for many years head of the states legislative reference bureau a memorial collection of books is being placed in the Indiana State Library Many alumni and other friends of the Indiana star student of thirty years ago are active in this tribute to his memory

In keeping with the life work of Dr Kettleborough books on the subjects of government and public adshyministration will be purchased for the special collecshytion Christopher B Coleman director of the historishycal bureau of the state department of education has announced that the volumes will be marked by a meshymorial bookplate designed by Frederick Polley

Rarely has a man in Indiana or any other state devoted his great talent throughout his adult lifetime to his commonwealth as did Dr Charles Kettleshyborough reads the announcement of the memorial committee Beyond the story of his career in the legisshylative reference bureau lies the story of Dr Kettleshyborough s undergraduate life on the Bloomington camshypus agd beyond that of his boyhood in the small Hoosier town of Topeka

I knew him from childhood writes A J Yoder ex95 clerk-treasurer of the town of Topeka we were pals for many years during his boyhood and young manhood years in Topeka He was an incomshyparable companion to whose untimely death [Dr Kettleborough was struck by an automobile last March] I shall never become entirely reconciled

iVe hiked many and many a mile together Mr Yoder continues taught school in the same townshyship worked summers together as partners on the railshyroad as section hands I taught him to smoke a pipe I shall never forget that occasion-how sick he was after smoking that first pipeful and how he lay across my bed the palest live white man I ever saw

And now my oid pal is gone He lies in a treeless flowerless cheerless cemetery in the family lot of the Bylers who took him to raise when he was a homeless waif English born four years old had it not been for the care and devotion of this plain Mennonite family consisting of the parents and four daughters-there was no son-who lavished on Charlie

the same love they would have gi ven a natural son and brother his career would have been a very differshyent one Were it otherwise you would not now be honoring his memory

In the minds of many a University official state legislator and other figures in public life linger memshyories of Dr Kettleborough and his office in the Stateshyhouse To him there came hundreds of citizens seekshying answers to questions of public administration His great talent his painstaking thoroughness and his frank and open approach made his life a symbol of service to his fellow man The fruits of his labors are written on the statute books (If the state and the kindshyliness of his manner engraved in the hearts of all who knew him

His work in the legislative reference bureau was outstanding according to L A Pittenger 07 AM08 president of Ball State Teachers Colllege and a classmate in the University of Dr Kettleborough Always quiet composed and thoughtful he rendered a very effective service to all legislators and through them to the State of Indiana

Dr Kettleborough never married His Ii fe centered around his work for others Except for vacation trips to Alaska and Hawaii for his favorite sport of mounshytain-climbing and visits to the state parks and his Unishyversity Dr Kettleboroughs orbit was his Indianapolis hotel residence the Statehouse and the state library

I t is especially fitting that the memorial to him be located in the Indiana State Library in which much of his interest centered during his mature life It is also fitting that the memorial be useful and unostentatious as was the career of this most useful of citizens

Many contributions have been received at Dr Coleshymans office in the State Library where alumni may obshytain information on the memorial It is expected that a sum of over a thousand dollars will be established The memorial was suggested and begun by friends of Dr Kettleborough among them Thomas A Hendricks Joe Rand Beckett Joseph A Andrew Walter S Greenshyough 10 Albert Stump 12 Leo M Rappaport Edward D Farmer eX99 Earl Crawford Mrs James L Murray DeWitt S Morgan Herbert P Kenney and Christopher B Coleman

I Teach Indian Children by MARGARET WINSLOvV )2

[Miss Winslows address Rosebud Agency South Dawta turned up just tantalizingly enough in the files to make us decide th ere must be a storv there There Was This is it-EnrToRs NOTE]

My HEART skipped a beat when I received a telegram last January noti fying me to leave my

home near Salem Ind and report for duty at Rosebud Agency South Dakota as soon as possible That was an unheard-of country all anyone seemed to know was the fact tha t it as out west somewhere near the big round-ups and dust regions Maps didn t help much except to show a few little towns the Indian reservashytions and a big open space labeled The Badlands

I was told to go by train to a little town in Nebraska hich as thirty-si x miles from the Agency here I was to be met by- 1 didnt know who I had visions of being welcomed in the middle of the night by Big Chief So-and-So riding to Rosebud in a buckboard or at least a Model T because the roads couldn t be very good and there was snow on the ground To my surshy

prise (and relief ) the principal of edushycation and his wi fe were there took me with them to the Agency ane gave me a bed for the rest of the night

I was awakened by church bells that beshying Sunciay mornshying and my first imshypression of Rosebud was a little town of snow-topped houses

Margaret Winslow protected on all sides

by big hills a big country ith nothing but hills and canyons to break the sameness of the landscape Even the trees were hidden dOwn in the deep canyons Quite different from our Indiana hill s and trees but interestshying in its vastness beautiful especially in the spring when the prairies are covered with the blossoms o f wild roses and cacti

Quarters for employes are quite comfortable I live in a club where each two people have a furnished suite of two rooms and bath Rosebud has all the modern conshyveniences of a city-except that the shopping di strict is crowded into two general stores Lights water and sewage systems are all government owned and mainshytained A good-s ized dam has made a little lake which is grand for skating in winter or swimming boating and fi shing in summer

Everyone goes in for sports because we are isolated enough so that we have to do our own entertaining A tennis club keeps up the courts a golf club maintains a course near hear and some o f the men have organized a gun club Good riding horses are close while pheasshyants and coyotes are plenti ful if one likes t o hunt

Unlike public school teachers the Indian service teachers are on duty twelve months of the year--nine months in the class room and the other three doing some kind of community work I was detailed to supervise 4-H Club work this summer and was proud of the Roseshybud clubs taking first honors on their exhibits at the Sioux Fair in the fall

Schools are of two types The boarding school for the whole reservation and the community day schools Both are equipped and mainta ined by the government Children are sent to boarding school after they finish the eigh th grade or if they live too far away to attend a day school Here the pupils are furni shed everything from handkerchiefs to pencils (Continued on page 28)

Alumni Authors Reviews of Prof W T Morgans Last Volume on British

History and John Wilcox 11 on Moliere

The Relation of koliere 10 Restoration Comedy By John Wilcox 1 I Associa te Professor of English Wayne University ( New York Columbia Univershysity Press London Oxford University Press etc 1938 Pp ix 240 Appendices bibliography and index $3 )

The comedy of the E nglish Restoration was not the child of Moliere-such is the theme of this book E mshybarking upon such a perilous enterprise as a new study of the literary influence of an author upon a whole school of writers in another country Dr vVilcox states his determination to maintain a sound and consistent judgment in a field where the evidence had already proshyduced a large body of contradictory conclusions

In order to do this he offers first a chapter on The Background and second one on The Method with the following heads literary commonplace commonshyplace of the theater social commonplace commonplace of life identifying peculiarities literary influence These principles are timely and seem to be soundly apshyplied in determining the question of influence

He feels that earlier students of this question have too much adopted extreme positions either exaggeratshying the influence of Moliere upon Restoration comedy or conceding entirely too little influence

He has therefore made a thorough appraisal of all alleged parallels in Restoration comedy and has in sevshyeral cases reached a different conclusion from those of his predecessors for example he denies influence of Moliere upon George Etherege cited as an outstanding imitator by Wurzback Miles and others and finds little in Vanbrugh and Crovvne He maintains moreshyover that certain Restoration tendencies assigned too briskly to Moliere were already working in pre-Moliere days and should be assigned to Ben Jonson Fletcher and Shirley

Dr Wilcox backs up his appraisal with a quantitative table-tables are usually conspicuous by their absence in such involved studies where they are most needed-of thirty-eight plays (about 20 per cent of the total of Resshytoration comedies) which have some connection with Moliere (page 179)

The writers who were really important in bringing Moliere to England were Dryden Shadwell Wychershyley and Ravenscroft Rarely would Dr vVilcox conshycede that the true spirit and philosophy of the French

INDIANA ALUMNI MAGAZINE

dramatist were acquired it was mainly his plots and comic devices Hence his conclusion that the influellce of Moliere was only one element in the development of Restoration comedy

It is possible that Dr Wilcox underestimates the conshytribution of a pioneer in this study Dr Dudley Miles whose thesis in this same series was accepted by a Coshylumbia University jury in 1910 Of course we expect critical method in estimating literary influence to make great strides in twenty-eight years Dr vVilcox has conshysidered it necessary as we have seen to devote an imshyportant chapter to a new critica l method Dr Miles can hardly be blamed for judging the influence of Moliere in accordance with the conventions of his time

We hope that this fine book of Dr Wilcox will prove impregnable and that another Columbia jury will not reverse the verdict in 1966 BERT E YOUNG

Fightin Hoosiers Varsity Grid Squad Riddled by Injuries But Views November

Schedule With Undamaged Morale

by GEORGE L GARDNER 34

Assistant to Director of Athletics

[For news of the Indiana-Kansas State game see the story Alumni Return for Homecoming starting on page 5]

S Indiana Universitys football team headed into n the second half of its difficult schedule last weekshyend against Visconsin prospects were some brighter than the results of the first half o f the season show on the record

The Hoosier squad which is now made up of fortyshysix varsity candidates has been beset by ill fortune ever since the opening game of the season against Ohio State

The coaches at the outset of the season realized that fundamentally the squad was a good football team but one vvhich would need the valuable experience to be gained only in actual competition before it could be counted upon as a reliable machine In this regard there has been some noticeable improvement but on the other hand the varsity combination has been caught off stride since that first game

The inexperience of the various sophomores used has not been the entire reason that the team has faltered even though this factor is not to be overlooked Injuries to key men or players expected to carry a greater part of the burden this fall has caused an almost constant revision of the offensive plans and there has been a reshysultant lack of co-ordination and consistency in the Indiana attack

A Crimson pass in the first quarter of the Ohio State game

A greater part of the li st of injured has not been made public The fact is that most of the players who have been hurt are those who received a little more atshytention during the pre-season practice than those who have been carrying the burden Consequently there has been a great deal of work to be done over and naturally the response has not been as spontaneous as could be expected from a more experienced group of players

Squad Dogged by Injuries

In the opening game against Ohio State two fine sophomore members of the backfield were hurt and have been unable to play since They are Joe Tofil a fullback and Cobb Lewis a halfback Undoubtedly the loss of these two men has Ctlt down the efficiency of the planned attack for the season Also in this game Russell Sloss a center was injured and was unable to play in the Illinois game

In the lIIinois game Lawrence Usher a sophomore guard received a broken collarbone and is out for the season Captain Paul Graham received a severely wrenched knee Frank Petrick regular right end su fshyfered a broken finger and missed the Nebraska and Kansas State games John Widaman end Joe Nicholshyson Harold Hursh and Eddie Herbert all sophomore backs came out of the contest with bad charley horses As a result of weak ankles John J anzaruk another end was unable to play at Illinois but despite his physical handicap has been used at right end to replace Petrick owing to lack of substitutes at thi s position William Smith who was regular left guard at the start of the season has been on a part-time basis since the Illinois game owing to a bruised hip Vincent Oliver halfshyback who has been shifted to fullback has been handishycapped by a sprained wrist while Archie Harris giant sophomore negro end was hurt on the eve of the Kansas State game while participating in a game in a physical education class Harold Zimmer another sophomore back has a sprained ankle

Despite this list of casualties from which at one time twelve players were out of service the squad has never lost its morale nor will to win This in spite of the treshymendous amount of work which has had to be done to

In the opening game of the season agai nst Ohio State Indiana Aashed its most brilliant and consistent attack revealed so far thi s season The Hoosiers appeared se t for an early arrival and a fine season following this conshytest which was practically all Indiana despite the fact that Ohio State won the game 6-0 Indiana completely dominated the play for all but four minutes and forty seconds of the ball game and it was during this time that Ohio State fashioned its only sustained drive of the afternoon marching seventy yards for the touchshydown

In the first quarter of the game Ohio State was unshyable to gain but Indiana taking a punt on its own twenty-nine sped off to a first down on the Indiana forty-three F ollowi ng several punt exchanges Hursh tried a long pass to Petrick but it was intercepted by Langhurst of Ohio State on Ohios twenty-eight

Scott was thrown for a ten-yard loss as the quarter ended and the Buckeyes kicked to Graham on the Inshydiana twenty-two-yard line Neither side was able to gain consistently although Indiana retained possession of the ball most of the time Langhurst took Nicholshysons punt on Ohios sixteen and advanced to the Ohio thirty-five A pass a nd a cutback by Ohio State put Ohio State on the Indiana forty-eight for its first trip into Hoosier territory Indiana made three first downs in a row as the half ended

In the third quarter Indiana completely dominated the play Ohio State had possession of the ball only three times during which it attempted only five plays

T o start the second half Tofil ran with the kickoff to the Indiana thirty-six Nicholson made a first down on the Indiana forty-six Clasen and Tofil made it fir st down on the Ohio forty-two Tofil and Nicholson teamed in carrying the ball to the Ohio twenty-five where Indiana was penalized for offside Nicholsons pass to Clasen was knocked down on the five-yard line Ohio State punted out and Indiana started again from its own thirty-one Tofils bucking and Nicholsons passing took the Hoosiers to the Ohio twenty-four During this march Nicholson completed a pass to Petrick on the Ohio State ten but the Hoosiers were penalized for holding and the play nullified Ohio Sta te steadied and Indiana was forced to punt Ohio State returned the punt and Olivers long pass was intercepted by Kabealo on Ohios fourteen Kabealo returning to the Indiana forty-nine where he was caught by Harri s

Ohio State then started its march From hi s on thirty Welbaum picked up eleven yards on the Sta tue of Liberty play Scott picked up seven yards and then took a pass from Sexton on the Indiana thirty-one Sexton passed to tVelbaum on the Indiana twenty-one and ski rted left end to the Indiana eleven Sexton then passed to Scott for the touchdown

Indiana stormed back with a rush tossing passes frantically but was unable to fashion a consistent drive On a combination of passes and running plays the Hoosiers advanced to the Ohio twenty-one but Indiana

Against Illinois the Hoosiers received no better breaks than they did against the Buckeyes There Inshydianas fumbling and errors counted heavily against the Hoosiers Following a short kickoff received by Illinois Indiana was constantly forced back by the superior punting displayed by Illinois The first bad break came

To start the second half Clasen kicked from the Indishyana sixteen to Elting who returned to the Indiana forty-two Illinois advanced the ball tothe Indiana twentyshyeight Wehrli shagged a pass and ran the ball to the Indishyana thirteen then plunged to the four-yard line From there Brewer plunged over for the touchdown

Petersons pass running to the Illinois forty-two Nicholson passed to Herbert on the Illinois thirty-one and completed another one on the Illinois thirteen Line plays failing Nicholson passed to Widaman This was the disputed play of the game The ball bounced out of Widamans hands and apparently was touched by an Illinois player before it was retrieved by Herbert on the Illinois two-yard line The officials after some discusshysion ruled that the Illinois player had not touched the ball and it was Illinois ball on their own eighteen

On the next play the Illinois pass from center was wide and Indiana was awarded two points on a safety

Following the kickoff Indiana started on another drive which took them to the Illinois thirty-seven beshyfore Nicholsons pass was intercepted on the Illinois nineteen Following a punt exchange Indiana started clown the field again from its own twenty-seven adshyvancing largely by passes to the Illinois thirty-four Hursh passed to Rucinski who dropped the ball on the Illinois four-yard line Hursh passed to Widaman on Illinois twenty-three and his next toss was intercepted by Wehrli who returned to the Illinois thirty-two Folshylowing another punt exchange Indiana once more started from its own forty- (Continued on page jI)

While a message was being sent to Dr McMullen asking for proof of his prowess there arrived by some strange quirk letters from three other alumni in widely separated parts of the country telling of their success in hunting and or fishing in their sections

Kenneth Lee Wagner ex36 of Corpus Christi Texas reported that he was enjoying the best hunting and fishing in the U S and this information was passed along to the Arkansas doctor with the results noted below From iVoodburn Ore came Keith OHairs (exz9) word that tuna fi shing couldnt be beat out there and the inference that hunting vvasnt the whole story of sport At about the same time John A Elliott exI8 Kansas City (Kan) dentist reported on his vacation in Canada and the thirty-pound lake ~outhecaughtupthere

The University 111 October cA Review of the Months Academic Life Campus Affairs

Autumn Leaves - and 1 U News in Brief

T H E Halloween month found the University campus hitting its usual stride of work and study

play and progress Now that the rush of registration and the start of another academic calendar are all past the freshmen co-eds locked into their appropr iate orshyganization niches and the library rules and regulashytions mastered the life undergraduate buckles dOm in real earnest

Beneath the campus trees painted now by autumn with the warm and faded colors of an old Oriental rug hurry the Universitys six thousand students each intent on the problems of hi s day and collectively inshytent on education-and its sidelines Gray-clad R O T C cadets dash for the drill field for the first Thursshyday afternoon review piles of books tilt crazily on research tables in the library stacks resolute students jack-knifed doggedly over newly-purchased textbooks under the goose-neck study lamps in the Fourth Street rooming houses and anyone seen without a leathershycovered notebook under his arm must be on his way to a dance

Assembly Hall Is Razed

It being nothing in hi s young life the casual freshshyman alks around the roped-off Assembly Hall deshymolition as though it were a usual thing But many an upperclassman and faculty member pauses to mark the passing of a campus landmark built in 1896 as the mens gym T hirteen Commencements have come and gone in the old rambling frame structure and it was there that President Emeritus William Lowe Bryan was inaugurated in 1903 Six yea rs later a swimming pool was added to the building but since then a stage has covered the spot Campus legend has it that the stage as built especially for the appearance of Maude Adams and her travelling troupe and the old audi- torium has housed such notables as Otis Skinner De Volfe Hopper and Forbes Robinson The first (1922) Jordan River Revue was staged there and during the war Assembly Hall was used as an army balTacks

But enough of backward-looking Other October campus highlights included the state library convenshytion and its attendant publishers displays in the latshyticed booths set up in Alumni Hall the Homecoming Day meeting of the Indiana sect ion of the American

Chemical Society and the th ree-clay undergraduate banking short course sponsored by the University the Indiana Bankers Association and the Indiana Departshyment of Financial Institutions At the chemistry meetshying Dr H T Briscoe new head of the LV chemistry department spoke on the place of that science in the University curriculum Professor F C Mathers adshydressed the group on Recent Studies in Electroshyplating

Men at Work in Forest Primeval

Back to his old haunts comes Robert Simpson ex32 to do what he can with the campus trees Simpson now a tree surgeon asserts that it is still possible to save some of the ancient beeches and oaks many of them two and a half centuries old His technique is to pull his teardrop-shaped auto trailer up to the tree needing attention pull open the hatch take out his tools and he and his gang go to work

So as the trees are patched and Assembly Hall comes down the new Union Building lounge goes up Under the clear and surprisingly warm skies of the month work is forging ahead on the stone-walled new lounge for men Present plans call for wood panelling inside and regular he-man furniture This room ill be for men only and co-eds will be admitted to the present lounge

After an address of welcome by President Herman B Wells and reshysponses by Ross H Wallace director of the Indiana Department of Finanshycial Institutions and Robert H Myers bankers association president the banker-students settled down to serishyous classroom work with six classes per day on the schedule Outstanding authorities in banking lectured to the classes and at nights there were dinshyners and addresses in the Union Buildshymg

The Man for the Job

Alumni are eligible to use the servshyices of the Personnel and Placement Bureau of the University it was anshynounced by C W Barker acting dean of the School of Business Adminisshytration Dean Barker pointed out that between one and two hundred alumni are registered at various times and the bureau will be glad to refer calls f rom employers to the various alumni who are qualified for the positions open

Interested alumni should write to the bureau for a personal data sheet to list their qualifications and experishyence for the information of employers who call for applicants for positions Last year-the third for the bureaushy853 per cent of the business seniors were placed

School of Law

In his autumn report to the Law School Committee of the Board of Trustees Dean Bernard C Gavit reshyvealed that the present first-year enshyrollment is fifty-one and a total of 141 are enrolled in the School A loss in regular enrollment of twenty-two students is accounted for by the small third-year class (first to enter under the three-year requirement plan) and the fact that last June the faculty exshycluded thirteen second-year students and one third-year student on the grounds of scholastic deficiency

New to the Law School this year is the grading system of pass with disshytinction pass and fail and being worked out is the new plan of compreshyhensive examinations The rule against extra-curricular activities for budding lawyers has met with whole-hearted cooperation on the part of the student body the report states

This year every six freshmen law students have a faculty sponsor and are welcome as are other students in the school to consult with faculty members during regular office hours In the air are plans for the installation of the honor system in the Law School

School of Medicine

The sophomore class is a roo per cent Indiana University affair this fall according to Mark P Helm 94 registrar who says that the class is composed entirely a f students proshymoted from Bloomington However that hasnt simplified his problem of

what to do with the Warrens There are three of them C B and W B who are brothers from Marshall and J c of Winchester no relation to the other two But to make matters more complex all are 37

Another honor came to the School of Medicine recelltly when Karl R Ruddell MDI 1 was elected president of the Indiana State Medical Assoshyciation He is a widely known Indianshyapolis physician and succeeds Dr Herman Baker of Evansville

School of Dentistry

Several members of the faculty preshysented lectures or clinics at the annual meeting of the American Dental Assoshyciation held in St Louis during the week of October 24

Other activities of the school inshycluded a symposium on the causes of dental decay by Drs G T Gregory and D A Boyd before the Jay County Dental Society on October 7 and Actshying Dean G D Timons read a paper Dental Medicine before the Cincinshynati Dental Society at its regular monthly meeting for October

That His Work May Live On Memorial Is Created In State Library to the Late

Charles Kettleborough 07 AM08 PhD16

o HONOR the memory of the late Dr CharlesT Kettleborough for many years head of the states legislative reference bureau a memorial collection of books is being placed in the Indiana State Library Many alumni and other friends of the Indiana star student of thirty years ago are active in this tribute to his memory

In keeping with the life work of Dr Kettleborough books on the subjects of government and public adshyministration will be purchased for the special collecshytion Christopher B Coleman director of the historishycal bureau of the state department of education has announced that the volumes will be marked by a meshymorial bookplate designed by Frederick Polley

Rarely has a man in Indiana or any other state devoted his great talent throughout his adult lifetime to his commonwealth as did Dr Charles Kettleshyborough reads the announcement of the memorial committee Beyond the story of his career in the legisshylative reference bureau lies the story of Dr Kettleshyborough s undergraduate life on the Bloomington camshypus agd beyond that of his boyhood in the small Hoosier town of Topeka

I knew him from childhood writes A J Yoder ex95 clerk-treasurer of the town of Topeka we were pals for many years during his boyhood and young manhood years in Topeka He was an incomshyparable companion to whose untimely death [Dr Kettleborough was struck by an automobile last March] I shall never become entirely reconciled

iVe hiked many and many a mile together Mr Yoder continues taught school in the same townshyship worked summers together as partners on the railshyroad as section hands I taught him to smoke a pipe I shall never forget that occasion-how sick he was after smoking that first pipeful and how he lay across my bed the palest live white man I ever saw

And now my oid pal is gone He lies in a treeless flowerless cheerless cemetery in the family lot of the Bylers who took him to raise when he was a homeless waif English born four years old had it not been for the care and devotion of this plain Mennonite family consisting of the parents and four daughters-there was no son-who lavished on Charlie

the same love they would have gi ven a natural son and brother his career would have been a very differshyent one Were it otherwise you would not now be honoring his memory

In the minds of many a University official state legislator and other figures in public life linger memshyories of Dr Kettleborough and his office in the Stateshyhouse To him there came hundreds of citizens seekshying answers to questions of public administration His great talent his painstaking thoroughness and his frank and open approach made his life a symbol of service to his fellow man The fruits of his labors are written on the statute books (If the state and the kindshyliness of his manner engraved in the hearts of all who knew him

His work in the legislative reference bureau was outstanding according to L A Pittenger 07 AM08 president of Ball State Teachers Colllege and a classmate in the University of Dr Kettleborough Always quiet composed and thoughtful he rendered a very effective service to all legislators and through them to the State of Indiana

Dr Kettleborough never married His Ii fe centered around his work for others Except for vacation trips to Alaska and Hawaii for his favorite sport of mounshytain-climbing and visits to the state parks and his Unishyversity Dr Kettleboroughs orbit was his Indianapolis hotel residence the Statehouse and the state library

I t is especially fitting that the memorial to him be located in the Indiana State Library in which much of his interest centered during his mature life It is also fitting that the memorial be useful and unostentatious as was the career of this most useful of citizens

Many contributions have been received at Dr Coleshymans office in the State Library where alumni may obshytain information on the memorial It is expected that a sum of over a thousand dollars will be established The memorial was suggested and begun by friends of Dr Kettleborough among them Thomas A Hendricks Joe Rand Beckett Joseph A Andrew Walter S Greenshyough 10 Albert Stump 12 Leo M Rappaport Edward D Farmer eX99 Earl Crawford Mrs James L Murray DeWitt S Morgan Herbert P Kenney and Christopher B Coleman

I Teach Indian Children by MARGARET WINSLOvV )2

[Miss Winslows address Rosebud Agency South Dawta turned up just tantalizingly enough in the files to make us decide th ere must be a storv there There Was This is it-EnrToRs NOTE]

My HEART skipped a beat when I received a telegram last January noti fying me to leave my

home near Salem Ind and report for duty at Rosebud Agency South Dakota as soon as possible That was an unheard-of country all anyone seemed to know was the fact tha t it as out west somewhere near the big round-ups and dust regions Maps didn t help much except to show a few little towns the Indian reservashytions and a big open space labeled The Badlands

I was told to go by train to a little town in Nebraska hich as thirty-si x miles from the Agency here I was to be met by- 1 didnt know who I had visions of being welcomed in the middle of the night by Big Chief So-and-So riding to Rosebud in a buckboard or at least a Model T because the roads couldn t be very good and there was snow on the ground To my surshy

prise (and relief ) the principal of edushycation and his wi fe were there took me with them to the Agency ane gave me a bed for the rest of the night

I was awakened by church bells that beshying Sunciay mornshying and my first imshypression of Rosebud was a little town of snow-topped houses

Margaret Winslow protected on all sides

by big hills a big country ith nothing but hills and canyons to break the sameness of the landscape Even the trees were hidden dOwn in the deep canyons Quite different from our Indiana hill s and trees but interestshying in its vastness beautiful especially in the spring when the prairies are covered with the blossoms o f wild roses and cacti

Quarters for employes are quite comfortable I live in a club where each two people have a furnished suite of two rooms and bath Rosebud has all the modern conshyveniences of a city-except that the shopping di strict is crowded into two general stores Lights water and sewage systems are all government owned and mainshytained A good-s ized dam has made a little lake which is grand for skating in winter or swimming boating and fi shing in summer

Everyone goes in for sports because we are isolated enough so that we have to do our own entertaining A tennis club keeps up the courts a golf club maintains a course near hear and some o f the men have organized a gun club Good riding horses are close while pheasshyants and coyotes are plenti ful if one likes t o hunt

Unlike public school teachers the Indian service teachers are on duty twelve months of the year--nine months in the class room and the other three doing some kind of community work I was detailed to supervise 4-H Club work this summer and was proud of the Roseshybud clubs taking first honors on their exhibits at the Sioux Fair in the fall

Schools are of two types The boarding school for the whole reservation and the community day schools Both are equipped and mainta ined by the government Children are sent to boarding school after they finish the eigh th grade or if they live too far away to attend a day school Here the pupils are furni shed everything from handkerchiefs to pencils (Continued on page 28)

Alumni Authors Reviews of Prof W T Morgans Last Volume on British

History and John Wilcox 11 on Moliere

The Relation of koliere 10 Restoration Comedy By John Wilcox 1 I Associa te Professor of English Wayne University ( New York Columbia Univershysity Press London Oxford University Press etc 1938 Pp ix 240 Appendices bibliography and index $3 )

The comedy of the E nglish Restoration was not the child of Moliere-such is the theme of this book E mshybarking upon such a perilous enterprise as a new study of the literary influence of an author upon a whole school of writers in another country Dr vVilcox states his determination to maintain a sound and consistent judgment in a field where the evidence had already proshyduced a large body of contradictory conclusions

In order to do this he offers first a chapter on The Background and second one on The Method with the following heads literary commonplace commonshyplace of the theater social commonplace commonplace of life identifying peculiarities literary influence These principles are timely and seem to be soundly apshyplied in determining the question of influence

He feels that earlier students of this question have too much adopted extreme positions either exaggeratshying the influence of Moliere upon Restoration comedy or conceding entirely too little influence

He has therefore made a thorough appraisal of all alleged parallels in Restoration comedy and has in sevshyeral cases reached a different conclusion from those of his predecessors for example he denies influence of Moliere upon George Etherege cited as an outstanding imitator by Wurzback Miles and others and finds little in Vanbrugh and Crovvne He maintains moreshyover that certain Restoration tendencies assigned too briskly to Moliere were already working in pre-Moliere days and should be assigned to Ben Jonson Fletcher and Shirley

Dr Wilcox backs up his appraisal with a quantitative table-tables are usually conspicuous by their absence in such involved studies where they are most needed-of thirty-eight plays (about 20 per cent of the total of Resshytoration comedies) which have some connection with Moliere (page 179)

The writers who were really important in bringing Moliere to England were Dryden Shadwell Wychershyley and Ravenscroft Rarely would Dr vVilcox conshycede that the true spirit and philosophy of the French

INDIANA ALUMNI MAGAZINE

dramatist were acquired it was mainly his plots and comic devices Hence his conclusion that the influellce of Moliere was only one element in the development of Restoration comedy

It is possible that Dr Wilcox underestimates the conshytribution of a pioneer in this study Dr Dudley Miles whose thesis in this same series was accepted by a Coshylumbia University jury in 1910 Of course we expect critical method in estimating literary influence to make great strides in twenty-eight years Dr vVilcox has conshysidered it necessary as we have seen to devote an imshyportant chapter to a new critica l method Dr Miles can hardly be blamed for judging the influence of Moliere in accordance with the conventions of his time

We hope that this fine book of Dr Wilcox will prove impregnable and that another Columbia jury will not reverse the verdict in 1966 BERT E YOUNG

Fightin Hoosiers Varsity Grid Squad Riddled by Injuries But Views November

Schedule With Undamaged Morale

by GEORGE L GARDNER 34

Assistant to Director of Athletics

[For news of the Indiana-Kansas State game see the story Alumni Return for Homecoming starting on page 5]

S Indiana Universitys football team headed into n the second half of its difficult schedule last weekshyend against Visconsin prospects were some brighter than the results of the first half o f the season show on the record

The Hoosier squad which is now made up of fortyshysix varsity candidates has been beset by ill fortune ever since the opening game of the season against Ohio State

The coaches at the outset of the season realized that fundamentally the squad was a good football team but one vvhich would need the valuable experience to be gained only in actual competition before it could be counted upon as a reliable machine In this regard there has been some noticeable improvement but on the other hand the varsity combination has been caught off stride since that first game

The inexperience of the various sophomores used has not been the entire reason that the team has faltered even though this factor is not to be overlooked Injuries to key men or players expected to carry a greater part of the burden this fall has caused an almost constant revision of the offensive plans and there has been a reshysultant lack of co-ordination and consistency in the Indiana attack

A Crimson pass in the first quarter of the Ohio State game

A greater part of the li st of injured has not been made public The fact is that most of the players who have been hurt are those who received a little more atshytention during the pre-season practice than those who have been carrying the burden Consequently there has been a great deal of work to be done over and naturally the response has not been as spontaneous as could be expected from a more experienced group of players

Squad Dogged by Injuries

In the opening game against Ohio State two fine sophomore members of the backfield were hurt and have been unable to play since They are Joe Tofil a fullback and Cobb Lewis a halfback Undoubtedly the loss of these two men has Ctlt down the efficiency of the planned attack for the season Also in this game Russell Sloss a center was injured and was unable to play in the Illinois game

In the lIIinois game Lawrence Usher a sophomore guard received a broken collarbone and is out for the season Captain Paul Graham received a severely wrenched knee Frank Petrick regular right end su fshyfered a broken finger and missed the Nebraska and Kansas State games John Widaman end Joe Nicholshyson Harold Hursh and Eddie Herbert all sophomore backs came out of the contest with bad charley horses As a result of weak ankles John J anzaruk another end was unable to play at Illinois but despite his physical handicap has been used at right end to replace Petrick owing to lack of substitutes at thi s position William Smith who was regular left guard at the start of the season has been on a part-time basis since the Illinois game owing to a bruised hip Vincent Oliver halfshyback who has been shifted to fullback has been handishycapped by a sprained wrist while Archie Harris giant sophomore negro end was hurt on the eve of the Kansas State game while participating in a game in a physical education class Harold Zimmer another sophomore back has a sprained ankle

Despite this list of casualties from which at one time twelve players were out of service the squad has never lost its morale nor will to win This in spite of the treshymendous amount of work which has had to be done to

In the opening game of the season agai nst Ohio State Indiana Aashed its most brilliant and consistent attack revealed so far thi s season The Hoosiers appeared se t for an early arrival and a fine season following this conshytest which was practically all Indiana despite the fact that Ohio State won the game 6-0 Indiana completely dominated the play for all but four minutes and forty seconds of the ball game and it was during this time that Ohio State fashioned its only sustained drive of the afternoon marching seventy yards for the touchshydown

In the first quarter of the game Ohio State was unshyable to gain but Indiana taking a punt on its own twenty-nine sped off to a first down on the Indiana forty-three F ollowi ng several punt exchanges Hursh tried a long pass to Petrick but it was intercepted by Langhurst of Ohio State on Ohios twenty-eight

Scott was thrown for a ten-yard loss as the quarter ended and the Buckeyes kicked to Graham on the Inshydiana twenty-two-yard line Neither side was able to gain consistently although Indiana retained possession of the ball most of the time Langhurst took Nicholshysons punt on Ohios sixteen and advanced to the Ohio thirty-five A pass a nd a cutback by Ohio State put Ohio State on the Indiana forty-eight for its first trip into Hoosier territory Indiana made three first downs in a row as the half ended

In the third quarter Indiana completely dominated the play Ohio State had possession of the ball only three times during which it attempted only five plays

INDIANA ALUMNI llAGAZINE

T o start the second half Tofil ran with the kickoff to the Indiana thirty-six Nicholson made a first down on the Indiana forty-six Clasen and Tofil made it fir st down on the Ohio forty-two Tofil and Nicholson teamed in carrying the ball to the Ohio twenty-five where Indiana was penalized for offside Nicholsons pass to Clasen was knocked down on the five-yard line Ohio State punted out and Indiana started again from its own thirty-one Tofils bucking and Nicholsons passing took the Hoosiers to the Ohio twenty-four During this march Nicholson completed a pass to Petrick on the Ohio State ten but the Hoosiers were penalized for holding and the play nullified Ohio Sta te steadied and Indiana was forced to punt Ohio State returned the punt and Olivers long pass was intercepted by Kabealo on Ohios fourteen Kabealo returning to the Indiana forty-nine where he was caught by Harri s

Ohio State then started its march From hi s on thirty Welbaum picked up eleven yards on the Sta tue of Liberty play Scott picked up seven yards and then took a pass from Sexton on the Indiana thirty-one Sexton passed to tVelbaum on the Indiana twenty-one and ski rted left end to the Indiana eleven Sexton then passed to Scott for the touchdown

Indiana stormed back with a rush tossing passes frantically but was unable to fashion a consistent drive On a combination of passes and running plays the Hoosiers advanced to the Ohio twenty-one but Indiana

f was penalized fifteen yards for holding The lastshyminute long pass to Archie Harris missed connection on the Ohio fifteen to end Indianas last scoring threat

The two teams see-sawed back and forth on the field as the half ended

To start the second half Clasen kicked from the Indishyana sixteen to Elting who returned to the Indiana forty-two Illinois advanced the ball tothe Indiana twentyshyeight Wehrli shagged a pass and ran the ball to the Indishyana thirteen then plunged to the four-yard line From there Brewer plunged over for the touchdown

Petersons pass running to the Illinois forty-two Nicholson passed to Herbert on the Illinois thirty-one and completed another one on the Illinois thirteen Line plays failing Nicholson passed to Widaman This was the disputed play of the game The ball bounced out of Widamans hands and apparently was touched by an Illinois player before it was retrieved by Herbert on the Illinois two-yard line The officials after some discusshysion ruled that the Illinois player had not touched the ball and it was Illinois ball on their own eighteen

On the next play the Illinois pass from center was wide and Indiana was awarded two points on a safety

Following the kickoff Indiana started on another drive which took them to the Illinois thirty-seven beshyfore Nicholsons pass was intercepted on the Illinois nineteen Following a punt exchange Indiana started clown the field again from its own twenty-seven adshyvancing largely by passes to the Illinois thirty-four Hursh passed to Rucinski who dropped the ball on the Illinois four-yard line Hursh passed to Widaman on Illinois twenty-three and his next toss was intercepted by Wehrli who returned to the Illinois thirty-two Folshylowing another punt exchange Indiana once more started from its own forty- (Continued on page jI)

Kenneth Lee Wagner ex36 of Corpus Christi Texas reported that he was enjoying the best hunting and fishing in the U S and this information was passed along to the Arkansas doctor with the results noted below From iVoodburn Ore came Keith OHairs (exz9) word that tuna fi shing couldnt be beat out there and the inference that hunting vvasnt the whole story of sport At about the same time John A Elliott exI8 Kansas City (Kan) dentist reported on his vacation in Canada and the thirty-pound lake ~outhecaughtupthere

School of Law

In his autumn report to the Law School Committee of the Board of Trustees Dean Bernard C Gavit reshyvealed that the present first-year enshyrollment is fifty-one and a total of 141 are enrolled in the School A loss in regular enrollment of twenty-two students is accounted for by the small third-year class (first to enter under the three-year requirement plan) and the fact that last June the faculty exshycluded thirteen second-year students and one third-year student on the grounds of scholastic deficiency

New to the Law School this year is the grading system of pass with disshytinction pass and fail and being worked out is the new plan of compreshyhensive examinations The rule against extra-curricular activities for budding lawyers has met with whole-hearted cooperation on the part of the student body the report states

That His Work May Live On Memorial Is Created In State Library to the Late

Charles Kettleborough 07 AM08 PhD16

o HONOR the memory of the late Dr CharlesT Kettleborough for many years head of the states legislative reference bureau a memorial collection of books is being placed in the Indiana State Library Many alumni and other friends of the Indiana star student of thirty years ago are active in this tribute to his memory

In keeping with the life work of Dr Kettleborough books on the subjects of government and public adshyministration will be purchased for the special collecshytion Christopher B Coleman director of the historishycal bureau of the state department of education has announced that the volumes will be marked by a meshymorial bookplate designed by Frederick Polley

Rarely has a man in Indiana or any other state devoted his great talent throughout his adult lifetime to his commonwealth as did Dr Charles Kettleshyborough reads the announcement of the memorial committee Beyond the story of his career in the legisshylative reference bureau lies the story of Dr Kettleshyborough s undergraduate life on the Bloomington camshypus agd beyond that of his boyhood in the small Hoosier town of Topeka

I knew him from childhood writes A J Yoder ex95 clerk-treasurer of the town of Topeka we were pals for many years during his boyhood and young manhood years in Topeka He was an incomshyparable companion to whose untimely death [Dr Kettleborough was struck by an automobile last March] I shall never become entirely reconciled

iVe hiked many and many a mile together Mr Yoder continues taught school in the same townshyship worked summers together as partners on the railshyroad as section hands I taught him to smoke a pipe I shall never forget that occasion-how sick he was after smoking that first pipeful and how he lay across my bed the palest live white man I ever saw

And now my oid pal is gone He lies in a treeless flowerless cheerless cemetery in the family lot of the Bylers who took him to raise when he was a homeless waif English born four years old had it not been for the care and devotion of this plain Mennonite family consisting of the parents and four daughters-there was no son-who lavished on Charlie

the same love they would have gi ven a natural son and brother his career would have been a very differshyent one Were it otherwise you would not now be honoring his memory

In the minds of many a University official state legislator and other figures in public life linger memshyories of Dr Kettleborough and his office in the Stateshyhouse To him there came hundreds of citizens seekshying answers to questions of public administration His great talent his painstaking thoroughness and his frank and open approach made his life a symbol of service to his fellow man The fruits of his labors are written on the statute books (If the state and the kindshyliness of his manner engraved in the hearts of all who knew him

His work in the legislative reference bureau was outstanding according to L A Pittenger 07 AM08 president of Ball State Teachers Colllege and a classmate in the University of Dr Kettleborough Always quiet composed and thoughtful he rendered a very effective service to all legislators and through them to the State of Indiana

Dr Kettleborough never married His Ii fe centered around his work for others Except for vacation trips to Alaska and Hawaii for his favorite sport of mounshytain-climbing and visits to the state parks and his Unishyversity Dr Kettleboroughs orbit was his Indianapolis hotel residence the Statehouse and the state library

I t is especially fitting that the memorial to him be located in the Indiana State Library in which much of his interest centered during his mature life It is also fitting that the memorial be useful and unostentatious as was the career of this most useful of citizens

Many contributions have been received at Dr Coleshymans office in the State Library where alumni may obshytain information on the memorial It is expected that a sum of over a thousand dollars will be established The memorial was suggested and begun by friends of Dr Kettleborough among them Thomas A Hendricks Joe Rand Beckett Joseph A Andrew Walter S Greenshyough 10 Albert Stump 12 Leo M Rappaport Edward D Farmer eX99 Earl Crawford Mrs James L Murray DeWitt S Morgan Herbert P Kenney and Christopher B Coleman

I Teach Indian Children by MARGARET WINSLOvV )2

[Miss Winslows address Rosebud Agency South Dawta turned up just tantalizingly enough in the files to make us decide th ere must be a storv there There Was This is it-EnrToRs NOTE]

My HEART skipped a beat when I received a telegram last January noti fying me to leave my

home near Salem Ind and report for duty at Rosebud Agency South Dakota as soon as possible That was an unheard-of country all anyone seemed to know was the fact tha t it as out west somewhere near the big round-ups and dust regions Maps didn t help much except to show a few little towns the Indian reservashytions and a big open space labeled The Badlands

I was told to go by train to a little town in Nebraska hich as thirty-si x miles from the Agency here I was to be met by- 1 didnt know who I had visions of being welcomed in the middle of the night by Big Chief So-and-So riding to Rosebud in a buckboard or at least a Model T because the roads couldn t be very good and there was snow on the ground To my surshy

prise (and relief ) the principal of edushycation and his wi fe were there took me with them to the Agency ane gave me a bed for the rest of the night

I was awakened by church bells that beshying Sunciay mornshying and my first imshypression of Rosebud was a little town of snow-topped houses

Margaret Winslow protected on all sides

by big hills a big country ith nothing but hills and canyons to break the sameness of the landscape Even the trees were hidden dOwn in the deep canyons Quite different from our Indiana hill s and trees but interestshying in its vastness beautiful especially in the spring when the prairies are covered with the blossoms o f wild roses and cacti

Quarters for employes are quite comfortable I live in a club where each two people have a furnished suite of two rooms and bath Rosebud has all the modern conshyveniences of a city-except that the shopping di strict is crowded into two general stores Lights water and sewage systems are all government owned and mainshytained A good-s ized dam has made a little lake which is grand for skating in winter or swimming boating and fi shing in summer

Everyone goes in for sports because we are isolated enough so that we have to do our own entertaining A tennis club keeps up the courts a golf club maintains a course near hear and some o f the men have organized a gun club Good riding horses are close while pheasshyants and coyotes are plenti ful if one likes t o hunt

Unlike public school teachers the Indian service teachers are on duty twelve months of the year--nine months in the class room and the other three doing some kind of community work I was detailed to supervise 4-H Club work this summer and was proud of the Roseshybud clubs taking first honors on their exhibits at the Sioux Fair in the fall

Schools are of two types The boarding school for the whole reservation and the community day schools Both are equipped and mainta ined by the government Children are sent to boarding school after they finish the eigh th grade or if they live too far away to attend a day school Here the pupils are furni shed everything from handkerchiefs to pencils (Continued on page 28)

Alumni Authors Reviews of Prof W T Morgans Last Volume on British

History and John Wilcox 11 on Moliere

The Relation of koliere 10 Restoration Comedy By John Wilcox 1 I Associa te Professor of English Wayne University ( New York Columbia Univershysity Press London Oxford University Press etc 1938 Pp ix 240 Appendices bibliography and index $3 )

The comedy of the E nglish Restoration was not the child of Moliere-such is the theme of this book E mshybarking upon such a perilous enterprise as a new study of the literary influence of an author upon a whole school of writers in another country Dr vVilcox states his determination to maintain a sound and consistent judgment in a field where the evidence had already proshyduced a large body of contradictory conclusions

In order to do this he offers first a chapter on The Background and second one on The Method with the following heads literary commonplace commonshyplace of the theater social commonplace commonplace of life identifying peculiarities literary influence These principles are timely and seem to be soundly apshyplied in determining the question of influence

He feels that earlier students of this question have too much adopted extreme positions either exaggeratshying the influence of Moliere upon Restoration comedy or conceding entirely too little influence

He has therefore made a thorough appraisal of all alleged parallels in Restoration comedy and has in sevshyeral cases reached a different conclusion from those of his predecessors for example he denies influence of Moliere upon George Etherege cited as an outstanding imitator by Wurzback Miles and others and finds little in Vanbrugh and Crovvne He maintains moreshyover that certain Restoration tendencies assigned too briskly to Moliere were already working in pre-Moliere days and should be assigned to Ben Jonson Fletcher and Shirley

Dr Wilcox backs up his appraisal with a quantitative table-tables are usually conspicuous by their absence in such involved studies where they are most needed-of thirty-eight plays (about 20 per cent of the total of Resshytoration comedies) which have some connection with Moliere (page 179)

The writers who were really important in bringing Moliere to England were Dryden Shadwell Wychershyley and Ravenscroft Rarely would Dr vVilcox conshycede that the true spirit and philosophy of the French

INDIANA ALUMNI MAGAZINE

dramatist were acquired it was mainly his plots and comic devices Hence his conclusion that the influellce of Moliere was only one element in the development of Restoration comedy

It is possible that Dr Wilcox underestimates the conshytribution of a pioneer in this study Dr Dudley Miles whose thesis in this same series was accepted by a Coshylumbia University jury in 1910 Of course we expect critical method in estimating literary influence to make great strides in twenty-eight years Dr vVilcox has conshysidered it necessary as we have seen to devote an imshyportant chapter to a new critica l method Dr Miles can hardly be blamed for judging the influence of Moliere in accordance with the conventions of his time

We hope that this fine book of Dr Wilcox will prove impregnable and that another Columbia jury will not reverse the verdict in 1966 BERT E YOUNG

Fightin Hoosiers Varsity Grid Squad Riddled by Injuries But Views November

Schedule With Undamaged Morale

by GEORGE L GARDNER 34

Assistant to Director of Athletics

[For news of the Indiana-Kansas State game see the story Alumni Return for Homecoming starting on page 5]

S Indiana Universitys football team headed into n the second half of its difficult schedule last weekshyend against Visconsin prospects were some brighter than the results of the first half o f the season show on the record

The Hoosier squad which is now made up of fortyshysix varsity candidates has been beset by ill fortune ever since the opening game of the season against Ohio State

The coaches at the outset of the season realized that fundamentally the squad was a good football team but one vvhich would need the valuable experience to be gained only in actual competition before it could be counted upon as a reliable machine In this regard there has been some noticeable improvement but on the other hand the varsity combination has been caught off stride since that first game

The inexperience of the various sophomores used has not been the entire reason that the team has faltered even though this factor is not to be overlooked Injuries to key men or players expected to carry a greater part of the burden this fall has caused an almost constant revision of the offensive plans and there has been a reshysultant lack of co-ordination and consistency in the Indiana attack

A Crimson pass in the first quarter of the Ohio State game

A greater part of the li st of injured has not been made public The fact is that most of the players who have been hurt are those who received a little more atshytention during the pre-season practice than those who have been carrying the burden Consequently there has been a great deal of work to be done over and naturally the response has not been as spontaneous as could be expected from a more experienced group of players

Squad Dogged by Injuries

In the opening game against Ohio State two fine sophomore members of the backfield were hurt and have been unable to play since They are Joe Tofil a fullback and Cobb Lewis a halfback Undoubtedly the loss of these two men has Ctlt down the efficiency of the planned attack for the season Also in this game Russell Sloss a center was injured and was unable to play in the Illinois game

In the lIIinois game Lawrence Usher a sophomore guard received a broken collarbone and is out for the season Captain Paul Graham received a severely wrenched knee Frank Petrick regular right end su fshyfered a broken finger and missed the Nebraska and Kansas State games John Widaman end Joe Nicholshyson Harold Hursh and Eddie Herbert all sophomore backs came out of the contest with bad charley horses As a result of weak ankles John J anzaruk another end was unable to play at Illinois but despite his physical handicap has been used at right end to replace Petrick owing to lack of substitutes at thi s position William Smith who was regular left guard at the start of the season has been on a part-time basis since the Illinois game owing to a bruised hip Vincent Oliver halfshyback who has been shifted to fullback has been handishycapped by a sprained wrist while Archie Harris giant sophomore negro end was hurt on the eve of the Kansas State game while participating in a game in a physical education class Harold Zimmer another sophomore back has a sprained ankle

Despite this list of casualties from which at one time twelve players were out of service the squad has never lost its morale nor will to win This in spite of the treshymendous amount of work which has had to be done to

Ohio State 6 Indiana 0

In the opening game of the season agai nst Ohio State Indiana Aashed its most brilliant and consistent attack revealed so far thi s season The Hoosiers appeared se t for an early arrival and a fine season following this conshytest which was practically all Indiana despite the fact that Ohio State won the game 6-0 Indiana completely dominated the play for all but four minutes and forty seconds of the ball game and it was during this time that Ohio State fashioned its only sustained drive of the afternoon marching seventy yards for the touchshydown

In the first quarter of the game Ohio State was unshyable to gain but Indiana taking a punt on its own twenty-nine sped off to a first down on the Indiana forty-three F ollowi ng several punt exchanges Hursh tried a long pass to Petrick but it was intercepted by Langhurst of Ohio State on Ohios twenty-eight

Scott was thrown for a ten-yard loss as the quarter ended and the Buckeyes kicked to Graham on the Inshydiana twenty-two-yard line Neither side was able to gain consistently although Indiana retained possession of the ball most of the time Langhurst took Nicholshysons punt on Ohios sixteen and advanced to the Ohio thirty-five A pass a nd a cutback by Ohio State put Ohio State on the Indiana forty-eight for its first trip into Hoosier territory Indiana made three first downs in a row as the half ended

In the third quarter Indiana completely dominated the play Ohio State had possession of the ball only three times during which it attempted only five plays

T o start the second half Tofil ran with the kickoff to the Indiana thirty-six Nicholson made a first down on the Indiana forty-six Clasen and Tofil made it fir st down on the Ohio forty-two Tofil and Nicholson teamed in carrying the ball to the Ohio twenty-five where Indiana was penalized for offside Nicholsons pass to Clasen was knocked down on the five-yard line Ohio State punted out and Indiana started again from its own thirty-one Tofils bucking and Nicholsons passing took the Hoosiers to the Ohio twenty-four During this march Nicholson completed a pass to Petrick on the Ohio State ten but the Hoosiers were penalized for holding and the play nullified Ohio Sta te steadied and Indiana was forced to punt Ohio State returned the punt and Olivers long pass was intercepted by Kabealo on Ohios fourteen Kabealo returning to the Indiana forty-nine where he was caught by Harri s

Ohio State then started its march From hi s on thirty Welbaum picked up eleven yards on the Sta tue of Liberty play Scott picked up seven yards and then took a pass from Sexton on the Indiana thirty-one Sexton passed to tVelbaum on the Indiana twenty-one and ski rted left end to the Indiana eleven Sexton then passed to Scott for the touchdown

Indiana stormed back with a rush tossing passes frantically but was unable to fashion a consistent drive On a combination of passes and running plays the Hoosiers advanced to the Ohio twenty-one but Indiana

f was penalized fifteen yards for holding The lastshyminute long pass to Archie Harris missed connection on the Ohio fifteen to end Indianas last scoring threat

The two teams see-sawed back and forth on the field as the half ended

To start the second half Clasen kicked from the Indishyana sixteen to Elting who returned to the Indiana forty-two Illinois advanced the ball tothe Indiana twentyshyeight Wehrli shagged a pass and ran the ball to the Indishyana thirteen then plunged to the four-yard line From there Brewer plunged over for the touchdown

Petersons pass running to the Illinois forty-two Nicholson passed to Herbert on the Illinois thirty-one and completed another one on the Illinois thirteen Line plays failing Nicholson passed to Widaman This was the disputed play of the game The ball bounced out of Widamans hands and apparently was touched by an Illinois player before it was retrieved by Herbert on the Illinois two-yard line The officials after some discusshysion ruled that the Illinois player had not touched the ball and it was Illinois ball on their own eighteen

On the next play the Illinois pass from center was wide and Indiana was awarded two points on a safety

Following the kickoff Indiana started on another drive which took them to the Illinois thirty-seven beshyfore Nicholsons pass was intercepted on the Illinois nineteen Following a punt exchange Indiana started clown the field again from its own twenty-seven adshyvancing largely by passes to the Illinois thirty-four Hursh passed to Rucinski who dropped the ball on the Illinois four-yard line Hursh passed to Widaman on Illinois twenty-three and his next toss was intercepted by Wehrli who returned to the Illinois thirty-two Folshylowing another punt exchange Indiana once more started from its own forty- (Continued on page jI)

WH EN the bare-faced postcarded statement Im the best duck hunter in Arkansas came to the

1LCAZI NE office the other day from Edwin C McMulshylen 04 Pine Bluff (Ark) physician it seemed too good to pass up

While a message was being sent to Dr McMullen asking for proof of his prowess there arrived by some strange quirk letters from three other alumni in widely separated parts of the country telling of their success in hunting and or fishing in their sections

Kenneth Lee Wagner ex36 of Corpus Christi Texas reported that he was enjoying the best hunting and fishing in the U S and this information was passed along to the Arkansas doctor with the results noted below From iVoodburn Ore came Keith OHairs (exz9) word that tuna fi shing couldnt be beat out there and the inference that hunting vvasnt the whole story of sport At about the same time John A Elliott exI8 Kansas City (Kan) dentist reported on his vacation in Canada and the thirty-pound lake ~outhecaughtupthere

Dr McMullens letter of proof vas the longest and best documented He sent a can of photographs o f which one is reproduced on this page A condensation of his letter (also canned) follows

That His Work May Live On Memorial Is Created In State Library to the Late

Charles Kettleborough 07 AM08 PhD16

o HONOR the memory of the late Dr CharlesT Kettleborough for many years head of the states legislative reference bureau a memorial collection of books is being placed in the Indiana State Library Many alumni and other friends of the Indiana star student of thirty years ago are active in this tribute to his memory

In keeping with the life work of Dr Kettleborough books on the subjects of government and public adshyministration will be purchased for the special collecshytion Christopher B Coleman director of the historishycal bureau of the state department of education has announced that the volumes will be marked by a meshymorial bookplate designed by Frederick Polley

Rarely has a man in Indiana or any other state devoted his great talent throughout his adult lifetime to his commonwealth as did Dr Charles Kettleshyborough reads the announcement of the memorial committee Beyond the story of his career in the legisshylative reference bureau lies the story of Dr Kettleshyborough s undergraduate life on the Bloomington camshypus agd beyond that of his boyhood in the small Hoosier town of Topeka

I knew him from childhood writes A J Yoder ex95 clerk-treasurer of the town of Topeka we were pals for many years during his boyhood and young manhood years in Topeka He was an incomshyparable companion to whose untimely death [Dr Kettleborough was struck by an automobile last March] I shall never become entirely reconciled

iVe hiked many and many a mile together Mr Yoder continues taught school in the same townshyship worked summers together as partners on the railshyroad as section hands I taught him to smoke a pipe I shall never forget that occasion-how sick he was after smoking that first pipeful and how he lay across my bed the palest live white man I ever saw

And now my oid pal is gone He lies in a treeless flowerless cheerless cemetery in the family lot of the Bylers who took him to raise when he was a homeless waif English born four years old had it not been for the care and devotion of this plain Mennonite family consisting of the parents and four daughters-there was no son-who lavished on Charlie

the same love they would have gi ven a natural son and brother his career would have been a very differshyent one Were it otherwise you would not now be honoring his memory

In the minds of many a University official state legislator and other figures in public life linger memshyories of Dr Kettleborough and his office in the Stateshyhouse To him there came hundreds of citizens seekshying answers to questions of public administration His great talent his painstaking thoroughness and his frank and open approach made his life a symbol of service to his fellow man The fruits of his labors are written on the statute books (If the state and the kindshyliness of his manner engraved in the hearts of all who knew him

His work in the legislative reference bureau was outstanding according to L A Pittenger 07 AM08 president of Ball State Teachers Colllege and a classmate in the University of Dr Kettleborough Always quiet composed and thoughtful he rendered a very effective service to all legislators and through them to the State of Indiana

Dr Kettleborough never married His Ii fe centered around his work for others Except for vacation trips to Alaska and Hawaii for his favorite sport of mounshytain-climbing and visits to the state parks and his Unishyversity Dr Kettleboroughs orbit was his Indianapolis hotel residence the Statehouse and the state library

I t is especially fitting that the memorial to him be located in the Indiana State Library in which much of his interest centered during his mature life It is also fitting that the memorial be useful and unostentatious as was the career of this most useful of citizens

Many contributions have been received at Dr Coleshymans office in the State Library where alumni may obshytain information on the memorial It is expected that a sum of over a thousand dollars will be established The memorial was suggested and begun by friends of Dr Kettleborough among them Thomas A Hendricks Joe Rand Beckett Joseph A Andrew Walter S Greenshyough 10 Albert Stump 12 Leo M Rappaport Edward D Farmer eX99 Earl Crawford Mrs James L Murray DeWitt S Morgan Herbert P Kenney and Christopher B Coleman

This is Rosebud Agency its children and their homes and its primary schoolroom

I Teach Indian Children by MARGARET WINSLOvV )2

[Miss Winslows address Rosebud Agency South Dawta turned up just tantalizingly enough in the files to make us decide th ere must be a storv there There Was This is it-EnrToRs NOTE]

My HEART skipped a beat when I received a telegram last January noti fying me to leave my

home near Salem Ind and report for duty at Rosebud Agency South Dakota as soon as possible That was an unheard-of country all anyone seemed to know was the fact tha t it as out west somewhere near the big round-ups and dust regions Maps didn t help much except to show a few little towns the Indian reservashytions and a big open space labeled The Badlands

I was told to go by train to a little town in Nebraska hich as thirty-si x miles from the Agency here I was to be met by- 1 didnt know who I had visions of being welcomed in the middle of the night by Big Chief So-and-So riding to Rosebud in a buckboard or at least a Model T because the roads couldn t be very good and there was snow on the ground To my surshy

prise (and relief ) the principal of edushycation and his wi fe were there took me with them to the Agency ane gave me a bed for the rest of the night

I was awakened by church bells that beshying Sunciay mornshying and my first imshypression of Rosebud was a little town of snow-topped houses

Margaret Winslow protected on all sides

by big hills a big country ith nothing but hills and canyons to break the sameness of the landscape Even the trees were hidden dOwn in the deep canyons Quite different from our Indiana hill s and trees but interestshying in its vastness beautiful especially in the spring when the prairies are covered with the blossoms o f wild roses and cacti

Quarters for employes are quite comfortable I live in a club where each two people have a furnished suite of two rooms and bath Rosebud has all the modern conshyveniences of a city-except that the shopping di strict is crowded into two general stores Lights water and sewage systems are all government owned and mainshytained A good-s ized dam has made a little lake which is grand for skating in winter or swimming boating and fi shing in summer

Everyone goes in for sports because we are isolated enough so that we have to do our own entertaining A tennis club keeps up the courts a golf club maintains a course near hear and some o f the men have organized a gun club Good riding horses are close while pheasshyants and coyotes are plenti ful if one likes t o hunt

Unlike public school teachers the Indian service teachers are on duty twelve months of the year--nine months in the class room and the other three doing some kind of community work I was detailed to supervise 4-H Club work this summer and was proud of the Roseshybud clubs taking first honors on their exhibits at the Sioux Fair in the fall

Schools are of two types The boarding school for the whole reservation and the community day schools Both are equipped and mainta ined by the government Children are sent to boarding school after they finish the eigh th grade or if they live too far away to attend a day school Here the pupils are furni shed everything from handkerchiefs to pencils (Continued on page 28)

Alumni Authors Reviews of Prof W T Morgans Last Volume on British

History and John Wilcox 11 on Moliere

The Relation of koliere 10 Restoration Comedy By John Wilcox 1 I Associa te Professor of English Wayne University ( New York Columbia Univershysity Press London Oxford University Press etc 1938 Pp ix 240 Appendices bibliography and index $3 )

The comedy of the E nglish Restoration was not the child of Moliere-such is the theme of this book E mshybarking upon such a perilous enterprise as a new study of the literary influence of an author upon a whole school of writers in another country Dr vVilcox states his determination to maintain a sound and consistent judgment in a field where the evidence had already proshyduced a large body of contradictory conclusions

In order to do this he offers first a chapter on The Background and second one on The Method with the following heads literary commonplace commonshyplace of the theater social commonplace commonplace of life identifying peculiarities literary influence These principles are timely and seem to be soundly apshyplied in determining the question of influence

He feels that earlier students of this question have too much adopted extreme positions either exaggeratshying the influence of Moliere upon Restoration comedy or conceding entirely too little influence

He has therefore made a thorough appraisal of all alleged parallels in Restoration comedy and has in sevshyeral cases reached a different conclusion from those of his predecessors for example he denies influence of Moliere upon George Etherege cited as an outstanding imitator by Wurzback Miles and others and finds little in Vanbrugh and Crovvne He maintains moreshyover that certain Restoration tendencies assigned too briskly to Moliere were already working in pre-Moliere days and should be assigned to Ben Jonson Fletcher and Shirley

Dr Wilcox backs up his appraisal with a quantitative table-tables are usually conspicuous by their absence in such involved studies where they are most needed-of thirty-eight plays (about 20 per cent of the total of Resshytoration comedies) which have some connection with Moliere (page 179)

The writers who were really important in bringing Moliere to England were Dryden Shadwell Wychershyley and Ravenscroft Rarely would Dr vVilcox conshycede that the true spirit and philosophy of the French

INDIANA ALUMNI MAGAZINE

dramatist were acquired it was mainly his plots and comic devices Hence his conclusion that the influellce of Moliere was only one element in the development of Restoration comedy

It is possible that Dr Wilcox underestimates the conshytribution of a pioneer in this study Dr Dudley Miles whose thesis in this same series was accepted by a Coshylumbia University jury in 1910 Of course we expect critical method in estimating literary influence to make great strides in twenty-eight years Dr vVilcox has conshysidered it necessary as we have seen to devote an imshyportant chapter to a new critica l method Dr Miles can hardly be blamed for judging the influence of Moliere in accordance with the conventions of his time

We hope that this fine book of Dr Wilcox will prove impregnable and that another Columbia jury will not reverse the verdict in 1966 BERT E YOUNG

Fightin Hoosiers Varsity Grid Squad Riddled by Injuries But Views November

Schedule With Undamaged Morale

by GEORGE L GARDNER 34

Assistant to Director of Athletics

[For news of the Indiana-Kansas State game see the story Alumni Return for Homecoming starting on page 5]

S Indiana Universitys football team headed into n the second half of its difficult schedule last weekshyend against Visconsin prospects were some brighter than the results of the first half o f the season show on the record

The Hoosier squad which is now made up of fortyshysix varsity candidates has been beset by ill fortune ever since the opening game of the season against Ohio State

The coaches at the outset of the season realized that fundamentally the squad was a good football team but one vvhich would need the valuable experience to be gained only in actual competition before it could be counted upon as a reliable machine In this regard there has been some noticeable improvement but on the other hand the varsity combination has been caught off stride since that first game

The inexperience of the various sophomores used has not been the entire reason that the team has faltered even though this factor is not to be overlooked Injuries to key men or players expected to carry a greater part of the burden this fall has caused an almost constant revision of the offensive plans and there has been a reshysultant lack of co-ordination and consistency in the Indiana attack

A Crimson pass in the first quarter of the Ohio State game

A greater part of the li st of injured has not been made public The fact is that most of the players who have been hurt are those who received a little more atshytention during the pre-season practice than those who have been carrying the burden Consequently there has been a great deal of work to be done over and naturally the response has not been as spontaneous as could be expected from a more experienced group of players

Squad Dogged by Injuries

In the opening game against Ohio State two fine sophomore members of the backfield were hurt and have been unable to play since They are Joe Tofil a fullback and Cobb Lewis a halfback Undoubtedly the loss of these two men has Ctlt down the efficiency of the planned attack for the season Also in this game Russell Sloss a center was injured and was unable to play in the Illinois game

In the lIIinois game Lawrence Usher a sophomore guard received a broken collarbone and is out for the season Captain Paul Graham received a severely wrenched knee Frank Petrick regular right end su fshyfered a broken finger and missed the Nebraska and Kansas State games John Widaman end Joe Nicholshyson Harold Hursh and Eddie Herbert all sophomore backs came out of the contest with bad charley horses As a result of weak ankles John J anzaruk another end was unable to play at Illinois but despite his physical handicap has been used at right end to replace Petrick owing to lack of substitutes at thi s position William Smith who was regular left guard at the start of the season has been on a part-time basis since the Illinois game owing to a bruised hip Vincent Oliver halfshyback who has been shifted to fullback has been handishycapped by a sprained wrist while Archie Harris giant sophomore negro end was hurt on the eve of the Kansas State game while participating in a game in a physical education class Harold Zimmer another sophomore back has a sprained ankle

Despite this list of casualties from which at one time twelve players were out of service the squad has never lost its morale nor will to win This in spite of the treshymendous amount of work which has had to be done to

Ohio State 6 Indiana 0

In the opening game of the season agai nst Ohio State Indiana Aashed its most brilliant and consistent attack revealed so far thi s season The Hoosiers appeared se t for an early arrival and a fine season following this conshytest which was practically all Indiana despite the fact that Ohio State won the game 6-0 Indiana completely dominated the play for all but four minutes and forty seconds of the ball game and it was during this time that Ohio State fashioned its only sustained drive of the afternoon marching seventy yards for the touchshydown

In the first quarter of the game Ohio State was unshyable to gain but Indiana taking a punt on its own twenty-nine sped off to a first down on the Indiana forty-three F ollowi ng several punt exchanges Hursh tried a long pass to Petrick but it was intercepted by Langhurst of Ohio State on Ohios twenty-eight

Scott was thrown for a ten-yard loss as the quarter ended and the Buckeyes kicked to Graham on the Inshydiana twenty-two-yard line Neither side was able to gain consistently although Indiana retained possession of the ball most of the time Langhurst took Nicholshysons punt on Ohios sixteen and advanced to the Ohio thirty-five A pass a nd a cutback by Ohio State put Ohio State on the Indiana forty-eight for its first trip into Hoosier territory Indiana made three first downs in a row as the half ended

In the third quarter Indiana completely dominated the play Ohio State had possession of the ball only three times during which it attempted only five plays

INDIANA ALUMNI llAGAZINE

T o start the second half Tofil ran with the kickoff to the Indiana thirty-six Nicholson made a first down on the Indiana forty-six Clasen and Tofil made it fir st down on the Ohio forty-two Tofil and Nicholson teamed in carrying the ball to the Ohio twenty-five where Indiana was penalized for offside Nicholsons pass to Clasen was knocked down on the five-yard line Ohio State punted out and Indiana started again from its own thirty-one Tofils bucking and Nicholsons passing took the Hoosiers to the Ohio twenty-four During this march Nicholson completed a pass to Petrick on the Ohio State ten but the Hoosiers were penalized for holding and the play nullified Ohio Sta te steadied and Indiana was forced to punt Ohio State returned the punt and Olivers long pass was intercepted by Kabealo on Ohios fourteen Kabealo returning to the Indiana forty-nine where he was caught by Harri s

Ohio State then started its march From hi s on thirty Welbaum picked up eleven yards on the Sta tue of Liberty play Scott picked up seven yards and then took a pass from Sexton on the Indiana thirty-one Sexton passed to tVelbaum on the Indiana twenty-one and ski rted left end to the Indiana eleven Sexton then passed to Scott for the touchdown

Indiana stormed back with a rush tossing passes frantically but was unable to fashion a consistent drive On a combination of passes and running plays the Hoosiers advanced to the Ohio twenty-one but Indiana

f was penalized fifteen yards for holding The lastshyminute long pass to Archie Harris missed connection on the Ohio fifteen to end Indianas last scoring threat

Illinois 12 Indiana 2

Against Illinois the Hoosiers received no better breaks than they did against the Buckeyes There Inshydianas fumbling and errors counted heavily against the Hoosiers Following a short kickoff received by Illinois Indiana was constantly forced back by the superior punting displayed by Illinois The first bad break came

The two teams see-sawed back and forth on the field as the half ended

To start the second half Clasen kicked from the Indishyana sixteen to Elting who returned to the Indiana forty-two Illinois advanced the ball tothe Indiana twentyshyeight Wehrli shagged a pass and ran the ball to the Indishyana thirteen then plunged to the four-yard line From there Brewer plunged over for the touchdown

Petersons pass running to the Illinois forty-two Nicholson passed to Herbert on the Illinois thirty-one and completed another one on the Illinois thirteen Line plays failing Nicholson passed to Widaman This was the disputed play of the game The ball bounced out of Widamans hands and apparently was touched by an Illinois player before it was retrieved by Herbert on the Illinois two-yard line The officials after some discusshysion ruled that the Illinois player had not touched the ball and it was Illinois ball on their own eighteen

On the next play the Illinois pass from center was wide and Indiana was awarded two points on a safety

Following the kickoff Indiana started on another drive which took them to the Illinois thirty-seven beshyfore Nicholsons pass was intercepted on the Illinois nineteen Following a punt exchange Indiana started clown the field again from its own twenty-seven adshyvancing largely by passes to the Illinois thirty-four Hursh passed to Rucinski who dropped the ball on the Illinois four-yard line Hursh passed to Widaman on Illinois twenty-three and his next toss was intercepted by Wehrli who returned to the Illinois thirty-two Folshylowing another punt exchange Indiana once more started from its own forty- (Continued on page jI)

WH EN the bare-faced postcarded statement Im the best duck hunter in Arkansas came to the

1LCAZI NE office the other day from Edwin C McMulshylen 04 Pine Bluff (Ark) physician it seemed too good to pass up

While a message was being sent to Dr McMullen asking for proof of his prowess there arrived by some strange quirk letters from three other alumni in widely separated parts of the country telling of their success in hunting and or fishing in their sections

Kenneth Lee Wagner ex36 of Corpus Christi Texas reported that he was enjoying the best hunting and fishing in the U S and this information was passed along to the Arkansas doctor with the results noted below From iVoodburn Ore came Keith OHairs (exz9) word that tuna fi shing couldnt be beat out there and the inference that hunting vvasnt the whole story of sport At about the same time John A Elliott exI8 Kansas City (Kan) dentist reported on his vacation in Canada and the thirty-pound lake ~outhecaughtupthere

Dr McMullens letter of proof vas the longest and best documented He sent a can of photographs o f which one is reproduced on this page A condensation of his letter (also canned) follows

Enclosed find final and conclusive proof that I am tops the first flight man of Arkansas and at large the greatest the country affords the best duck hunter Now of course I wouldnt want to speak disparagingly of that Corpus Christi bird but confidentially there aint no ducks c1on there Really he just got thar notion one

I Teach Indian Children by MARGARET WINSLOvV )2

[Miss Winslows address Rosebud Agency South Dawta turned up just tantalizingly enough in the files to make us decide th ere must be a storv there There Was This is it-EnrToRs NOTE]

My HEART skipped a beat when I received a telegram last January noti fying me to leave my

home near Salem Ind and report for duty at Rosebud Agency South Dakota as soon as possible That was an unheard-of country all anyone seemed to know was the fact tha t it as out west somewhere near the big round-ups and dust regions Maps didn t help much except to show a few little towns the Indian reservashytions and a big open space labeled The Badlands

I was told to go by train to a little town in Nebraska hich as thirty-si x miles from the Agency here I was to be met by- 1 didnt know who I had visions of being welcomed in the middle of the night by Big Chief So-and-So riding to Rosebud in a buckboard or at least a Model T because the roads couldn t be very good and there was snow on the ground To my surshy

prise (and relief ) the principal of edushycation and his wi fe were there took me with them to the Agency ane gave me a bed for the rest of the night

I was awakened by church bells that beshying Sunciay mornshying and my first imshypression of Rosebud was a little town of snow-topped houses

Margaret Winslow protected on all sides

by big hills a big country ith nothing but hills and canyons to break the sameness of the landscape Even the trees were hidden dOwn in the deep canyons Quite different from our Indiana hill s and trees but interestshying in its vastness beautiful especially in the spring when the prairies are covered with the blossoms o f wild roses and cacti

Quarters for employes are quite comfortable I live in a club where each two people have a furnished suite of two rooms and bath Rosebud has all the modern conshyveniences of a city-except that the shopping di strict is crowded into two general stores Lights water and sewage systems are all government owned and mainshytained A good-s ized dam has made a little lake which is grand for skating in winter or swimming boating and fi shing in summer

Everyone goes in for sports because we are isolated enough so that we have to do our own entertaining A tennis club keeps up the courts a golf club maintains a course near hear and some o f the men have organized a gun club Good riding horses are close while pheasshyants and coyotes are plenti ful if one likes t o hunt

Unlike public school teachers the Indian service teachers are on duty twelve months of the year--nine months in the class room and the other three doing some kind of community work I was detailed to supervise 4-H Club work this summer and was proud of the Roseshybud clubs taking first honors on their exhibits at the Sioux Fair in the fall

Schools are of two types The boarding school for the whole reservation and the community day schools Both are equipped and mainta ined by the government Children are sent to boarding school after they finish the eigh th grade or if they live too far away to attend a day school Here the pupils are furni shed everything from handkerchiefs to pencils (Continued on page 28)

Alumni Authors Reviews of Prof W T Morgans Last Volume on British

History and John Wilcox 11 on Moliere

The Relation of koliere 10 Restoration Comedy By John Wilcox 1 I Associa te Professor of English Wayne University ( New York Columbia Univershysity Press London Oxford University Press etc 1938 Pp ix 240 Appendices bibliography and index $3 )

The comedy of the E nglish Restoration was not the child of Moliere-such is the theme of this book E mshybarking upon such a perilous enterprise as a new study of the literary influence of an author upon a whole school of writers in another country Dr vVilcox states his determination to maintain a sound and consistent judgment in a field where the evidence had already proshyduced a large body of contradictory conclusions

In order to do this he offers first a chapter on The Background and second one on The Method with the following heads literary commonplace commonshyplace of the theater social commonplace commonplace of life identifying peculiarities literary influence These principles are timely and seem to be soundly apshyplied in determining the question of influence

He feels that earlier students of this question have too much adopted extreme positions either exaggeratshying the influence of Moliere upon Restoration comedy or conceding entirely too little influence

He has therefore made a thorough appraisal of all alleged parallels in Restoration comedy and has in sevshyeral cases reached a different conclusion from those of his predecessors for example he denies influence of Moliere upon George Etherege cited as an outstanding imitator by Wurzback Miles and others and finds little in Vanbrugh and Crovvne He maintains moreshyover that certain Restoration tendencies assigned too briskly to Moliere were already working in pre-Moliere days and should be assigned to Ben Jonson Fletcher and Shirley

Dr Wilcox backs up his appraisal with a quantitative table-tables are usually conspicuous by their absence in such involved studies where they are most needed-of thirty-eight plays (about 20 per cent of the total of Resshytoration comedies) which have some connection with Moliere (page 179)

The writers who were really important in bringing Moliere to England were Dryden Shadwell Wychershyley and Ravenscroft Rarely would Dr vVilcox conshycede that the true spirit and philosophy of the French

INDIANA ALUMNI MAGAZINE

dramatist were acquired it was mainly his plots and comic devices Hence his conclusion that the influellce of Moliere was only one element in the development of Restoration comedy

It is possible that Dr Wilcox underestimates the conshytribution of a pioneer in this study Dr Dudley Miles whose thesis in this same series was accepted by a Coshylumbia University jury in 1910 Of course we expect critical method in estimating literary influence to make great strides in twenty-eight years Dr vVilcox has conshysidered it necessary as we have seen to devote an imshyportant chapter to a new critica l method Dr Miles can hardly be blamed for judging the influence of Moliere in accordance with the conventions of his time

We hope that this fine book of Dr Wilcox will prove impregnable and that another Columbia jury will not reverse the verdict in 1966 BERT E YOUNG

Fightin Hoosiers Varsity Grid Squad Riddled by Injuries But Views November

Schedule With Undamaged Morale

by GEORGE L GARDNER 34

Assistant to Director of Athletics

[For news of the Indiana-Kansas State game see the story Alumni Return for Homecoming starting on page 5]

S Indiana Universitys football team headed into n the second half of its difficult schedule last weekshyend against Visconsin prospects were some brighter than the results of the first half o f the season show on the record

The Hoosier squad which is now made up of fortyshysix varsity candidates has been beset by ill fortune ever since the opening game of the season against Ohio State

The coaches at the outset of the season realized that fundamentally the squad was a good football team but one vvhich would need the valuable experience to be gained only in actual competition before it could be counted upon as a reliable machine In this regard there has been some noticeable improvement but on the other hand the varsity combination has been caught off stride since that first game

The inexperience of the various sophomores used has not been the entire reason that the team has faltered even though this factor is not to be overlooked Injuries to key men or players expected to carry a greater part of the burden this fall has caused an almost constant revision of the offensive plans and there has been a reshysultant lack of co-ordination and consistency in the Indiana attack

A Crimson pass in the first quarter of the Ohio State game

A greater part of the li st of injured has not been made public The fact is that most of the players who have been hurt are those who received a little more atshytention during the pre-season practice than those who have been carrying the burden Consequently there has been a great deal of work to be done over and naturally the response has not been as spontaneous as could be expected from a more experienced group of players

Squad Dogged by Injuries

In the opening game against Ohio State two fine sophomore members of the backfield were hurt and have been unable to play since They are Joe Tofil a fullback and Cobb Lewis a halfback Undoubtedly the loss of these two men has Ctlt down the efficiency of the planned attack for the season Also in this game Russell Sloss a center was injured and was unable to play in the Illinois game

In the lIIinois game Lawrence Usher a sophomore guard received a broken collarbone and is out for the season Captain Paul Graham received a severely wrenched knee Frank Petrick regular right end su fshyfered a broken finger and missed the Nebraska and Kansas State games John Widaman end Joe Nicholshyson Harold Hursh and Eddie Herbert all sophomore backs came out of the contest with bad charley horses As a result of weak ankles John J anzaruk another end was unable to play at Illinois but despite his physical handicap has been used at right end to replace Petrick owing to lack of substitutes at thi s position William Smith who was regular left guard at the start of the season has been on a part-time basis since the Illinois game owing to a bruised hip Vincent Oliver halfshyback who has been shifted to fullback has been handishycapped by a sprained wrist while Archie Harris giant sophomore negro end was hurt on the eve of the Kansas State game while participating in a game in a physical education class Harold Zimmer another sophomore back has a sprained ankle

Despite this list of casualties from which at one time twelve players were out of service the squad has never lost its morale nor will to win This in spite of the treshymendous amount of work which has had to be done to

Ohio State 6 Indiana 0

In the opening game of the season agai nst Ohio State Indiana Aashed its most brilliant and consistent attack revealed so far thi s season The Hoosiers appeared se t for an early arrival and a fine season following this conshytest which was practically all Indiana despite the fact that Ohio State won the game 6-0 Indiana completely dominated the play for all but four minutes and forty seconds of the ball game and it was during this time that Ohio State fashioned its only sustained drive of the afternoon marching seventy yards for the touchshydown

In the first quarter of the game Ohio State was unshyable to gain but Indiana taking a punt on its own twenty-nine sped off to a first down on the Indiana forty-three F ollowi ng several punt exchanges Hursh tried a long pass to Petrick but it was intercepted by Langhurst of Ohio State on Ohios twenty-eight

Scott was thrown for a ten-yard loss as the quarter ended and the Buckeyes kicked to Graham on the Inshydiana twenty-two-yard line Neither side was able to gain consistently although Indiana retained possession of the ball most of the time Langhurst took Nicholshysons punt on Ohios sixteen and advanced to the Ohio thirty-five A pass a nd a cutback by Ohio State put Ohio State on the Indiana forty-eight for its first trip into Hoosier territory Indiana made three first downs in a row as the half ended

In the third quarter Indiana completely dominated the play Ohio State had possession of the ball only three times during which it attempted only five plays

INDIANA ALUMNI llAGAZINE

T o start the second half Tofil ran with the kickoff to the Indiana thirty-six Nicholson made a first down on the Indiana forty-six Clasen and Tofil made it fir st down on the Ohio forty-two Tofil and Nicholson teamed in carrying the ball to the Ohio twenty-five where Indiana was penalized for offside Nicholsons pass to Clasen was knocked down on the five-yard line Ohio State punted out and Indiana started again from its own thirty-one Tofils bucking and Nicholsons passing took the Hoosiers to the Ohio twenty-four During this march Nicholson completed a pass to Petrick on the Ohio State ten but the Hoosiers were penalized for holding and the play nullified Ohio Sta te steadied and Indiana was forced to punt Ohio State returned the punt and Olivers long pass was intercepted by Kabealo on Ohios fourteen Kabealo returning to the Indiana forty-nine where he was caught by Harri s

Ohio State then started its march From hi s on thirty Welbaum picked up eleven yards on the Sta tue of Liberty play Scott picked up seven yards and then took a pass from Sexton on the Indiana thirty-one Sexton passed to tVelbaum on the Indiana twenty-one and ski rted left end to the Indiana eleven Sexton then passed to Scott for the touchdown

Indiana stormed back with a rush tossing passes frantically but was unable to fashion a consistent drive On a combination of passes and running plays the Hoosiers advanced to the Ohio twenty-one but Indiana

f was penalized fifteen yards for holding The lastshyminute long pass to Archie Harris missed connection on the Ohio fifteen to end Indianas last scoring threat

Against Illinois the Hoosiers received no better breaks than they did against the Buckeyes There Inshydianas fumbling and errors counted heavily against the Hoosiers Following a short kickoff received by Illinois Indiana was constantly forced back by the superior punting displayed by Illinois The first bad break came

The two teams see-sawed back and forth on the field as the half ended

To start the second half Clasen kicked from the Indishyana sixteen to Elting who returned to the Indiana forty-two Illinois advanced the ball tothe Indiana twentyshyeight Wehrli shagged a pass and ran the ball to the Indishyana thirteen then plunged to the four-yard line From there Brewer plunged over for the touchdown

Petersons pass running to the Illinois forty-two Nicholson passed to Herbert on the Illinois thirty-one and completed another one on the Illinois thirteen Line plays failing Nicholson passed to Widaman This was the disputed play of the game The ball bounced out of Widamans hands and apparently was touched by an Illinois player before it was retrieved by Herbert on the Illinois two-yard line The officials after some discusshysion ruled that the Illinois player had not touched the ball and it was Illinois ball on their own eighteen

On the next play the Illinois pass from center was wide and Indiana was awarded two points on a safety

Following the kickoff Indiana started on another drive which took them to the Illinois thirty-seven beshyfore Nicholsons pass was intercepted on the Illinois nineteen Following a punt exchange Indiana started clown the field again from its own twenty-seven adshyvancing largely by passes to the Illinois thirty-four Hursh passed to Rucinski who dropped the ball on the Illinois four-yard line Hursh passed to Widaman on Illinois twenty-three and his next toss was intercepted by Wehrli who returned to the Illinois thirty-two Folshylowing another punt exchange Indiana once more started from its own forty- (Continued on page jI)

While a message was being sent to Dr McMullen asking for proof of his prowess there arrived by some strange quirk letters from three other alumni in widely separated parts of the country telling of their success in hunting and or fishing in their sections

Kenneth Lee Wagner ex36 of Corpus Christi Texas reported that he was enjoying the best hunting and fishing in the U S and this information was passed along to the Arkansas doctor with the results noted below From iVoodburn Ore came Keith OHairs (exz9) word that tuna fi shing couldnt be beat out there and the inference that hunting vvasnt the whole story of sport At about the same time John A Elliott exI8 Kansas City (Kan) dentist reported on his vacation in Canada and the thirty-pound lake ~outhecaughtupthere
