CALVIN FRAVEL
C. Succumbs to a Heart
Condition at His Home
SCHOOL MOURNS LOSS
It was with sincere sorrow that
the students and faculty of the
College stood for a minute of silent prayer during the Chapel
exercises Monday, February 8. Dr.
Armstrong's chapel announcement
concerning the death of Calvin
Fravel came as a distinct shock
to us, for Calvin was one of the
best liked students in the College.
His untimely death, from a
heart condition with which he had
been suffering for several years,
ended what would have been a
promising career as a teacher. Calvin was compleing his Senior year
in the College and was doing his
practice teaching in the Training
School where his efforts were met
with marked success.
Despite his handicap, Calvin
had been active in College activities. He was a member of the
College Orchestra, the Dramatic
Society, and the College Band.
Students and faculty offer deepest sympathy to Calvin's parents,

The Dramatic Club had its first
informal initiation of the year. The
occasion for this was a delightful
social in the college reception
room on February 4, at which 13
membevs of the Deb Circle eligible
for the Inner Circle were guests.
Preparations for the party were
planned by Jeanne Lepley, chairman of the Social Committee. Pi-eceding the social was a progi-am
given by members of the Inner
Circle. The program was "dramatically" educational, consisting
of i-eports on articles taken from
vecent Theatre Arts Monthly Magazines. Amy Zaner reviewed Kath.
erine Cornell's "The Actor Attacks
Her Pavt." Rose Marino discussed
the wovking methods of America's
greatest living acting couple, Alfred Lunt and Lynn Fontanne;
Clee Howe spoke on "Hamlets,"
and Frank Kotchin on "The Designer Sets the Stage."
The students earning membership into the Inner Circle include:

SCHOOL MOURNS LOSS
It was with sincere sorrow that
the students and faculty of the
College stood for a minute of silent prayer during the Chapel
exercises Monday, February 8. Dr.
Armstrong's chapel announcement
concerning the death of Calvin
Fravel came as a distinct shock
to us, for Calvin was one of the
best liked students in the College.
His untimely death, from a
heart condition with which he had
been suffering for several years,
ended what would have been a
promising career as a teacher. Calvin was compleing his Senior year
in the College and was doing his
practice teaching in the Training
School where his efforts were met
with marked success.
Despite his handicap, Calvin
had been active in College activities. He was a member of the
College Orchestra, the Dramatic
Society, and the College Band.
Students and faculty offer deepest sympathy to Calvin's parents,

The Dramatic Club had its first
informal initiation of the year. The
occasion for this was a delightful
social in the college reception
room on February 4, at which 13
membevs of the Deb Circle eligible
for the Inner Circle were guests.
Preparations for the party were
planned by Jeanne Lepley, chairman of the Social Committee. Pi-eceding the social was a progi-am
given by members of the Inner
Circle. The program was "dramatically" educational, consisting
of i-eports on articles taken from
vecent Theatre Arts Monthly Magazines. Amy Zaner reviewed Kath.

the wovking methods of America's

Clee Howe spoke on "Hamlets,"
and Frank Kotchin on "The Designer Sets the Stage."
