G3 I 3 X Y VOLUME III . I - MOLINE COMMUNITY COLLEGE MOLINE, ILLINOIS In this aerial view of the downtown Moline and vicinity, Moline Community College may be seen in the circle at the lower left. The Wheel of Progress . . . . in 1960-1961 has rolled through Moline Community College and touched almost every phase of our college life. We have broadened our horizons in the curriculum, the scholastic achievement, the faculty membership, the student enrollment, the campus improvement, and the social activities. Inspired leadership, selfless devotion, and willing cooperation of faculty and students have lubricated the wheels to aid in this progress. The college offers a flexible program in three general areas: terminal, parallel, and adult education. This year new courses were offered in the language arts, social studies, mathematics, science, and physical education departments. The scope of the adult education program, similarly broadened, shows new growth in many areas. Attesting to the improvement of scholastic ratings are the results of the SCAT tests, which showed a higher average over that of previous years. Faculty membership has increased with six new teachers added to last year's staff of ten. Supplementing the staff, also, is the new full time coordinator for adult education. Full time student enrollment for 1960-61 showed a thirty-three percent increase over that of last year. Also verifying the forward approach of the college is the new parking lot in the area formerly occupied by the Annex, which stood in the path of progress. Students themselves have shown ever increasing loyalty and cooperation by their participaiion in the many new coordinated social events initiated by various college clubs. Therefore, we offer the following pages as a record of the growth of our college this year and present them as a reminder along the path that MCC has helped us to grow intellectually, morally and socially.

As each year is important in the development of a comparatively young institution, we like to think that the fifteenth has contributed its share toward advancement of our college. This year has seen the expansion of our full time faculty, an expansion of our curricula, and an increase in our student body. We've elected our first Snow Queen, put the first stickers on our cars, worn our first school sweatshirts, re- ceived our first student identification cards, and established our HIST alumni organization. These and other firsts have made for us another important year. However, their appearances, along with the general expansion of the college, are not so important in and of themselves. Their importance lies in the fact that they are indicative of the future, a bigger and brighter future than many would have imagined in years gone by. No institution stands still. Witli scientific, technological, and financial change, institutions adapt themselves and go forward with the changes, or they die. Strong leadership of previous administrators has helped Moline Community College to the point where present and future administrators can concentrate more on the needs of the future. The present strength and growth of our college can be attributed to the concerted efforts of all its administrators since its inception. just what does the future hold for Moline Community College? Wliile it is impossible to guarantee or foresee all details, the following prog- nostication seems justified: 1. Continued increase in full-time student body, the fall of 1965 will see an enrollment of one thousand full-time students. 2. Continued expansion of our curricula, with more varied offerings in all areas. 3. Growth of full-time faculty and staff, the fall of 1965 will see forty full-time faculty members. 4. By 1965, there is a good chance that Moline Community College will become an area college, serving a larger home district than the present school district 47540. 5. Continued growth in academic standards and regulations. 6. More parking problems. But the brightest part of the future is the fact that more people can avail themselves of a higher education, a situation not possible without Moline Com- munity College. Witli a tremendous increase in the number of college age people within the next decade, comes an additional responsibility to society to see that they are provided with an opportunity to acquire an education beyond the high school level. Many areas of our country will fail to provide such an opportunity for their young people. Thankfully, the citizens in our community are willing to face-up to this responsibility through the provision of Moline Community College. One of the greatest assets of any community is the willingness of the present generation to provide for the welfare of the next generation. We are indeed blessed in this respect in our community. DR.

Whalen, and the Board of Education plan for the development and future of MCC. Working together, Dr. Davis and Dr. Whalen determine the needs of the expanding college. This year these needs made necessary an increase in tui- tion, enfective next fall. Well qualified to offer advice on college affairs, Dr. Davis himself served as dean of MCC from 1953 to 1955. He is thoroughly familiar with the policies, problems, and potential of Moline's junior college. Because his office is nearby in Allendale, it is especially convenient for the superintendent to work closely with Dr. Whalen in planning school policy. All final decisions pertaining to MCC are made by the Board of Education, which has under its jurisdiction the twenty-five schools of the Moline Public Schools. Comprised of several members each, two committees deal with contrasting topics. The Business Committee is occupied with finances, the Education Committee with teaching staff and curriculum. The Board of Education controls policies of the Moline Public Schools. Members are Stoddard Small, Richard Shrader, Calvin Ainsworth, Dr. Dwight Davis, President M. W. Faust, Assistant Superintendent and Secretary of the Board Melvin Reynolds, Henry Parsons, john Morgan, and Ralph Johnson. l .onfer in Directing Growth of MCC W sl ef ggi Q W DR. RICHARD E. WHALEN Southern Illinois University, B.S. University of Mississippi, M.A. Indiana University, M.S., Ed. D. Deniz of Moline Community College Administrators of Moline Community College place emphasis on both college credit and adult vocational education courses. This policy is evidenced by the creation of the position, director of technical, voca- tional, and adult education. Filled by Mr. L. Everett Belote, this job demands a full time faculty member. More proof of interest in adult education may be found in the fact that the technical program is being executed at two locations. Now, vocational education courses are made available not only at MCC, but also at the new Moline Senior High School. Because the administration feels that a full time instructor offers definite advantages over a part-time one, it has originated a full time teaching position whenever possible. It must be remembered that four full time teachers can replace sixteen part-time instruc- tors, in fact, this exact substitution took place at the beginning of the second semester. A total of six full time teachers were added to the staff this year, bringing the number to sixteen. In addition, faculty members have been appointed to head most of the departments. Carrying this same policy a step further, Dr. Whalen, Dr. Davis, and the school board have added a full time head coach to the faculty next year. To offer a greater variety of college credit courses at a junior college, the administration employs part- time instructors. This year fifty-five teachers com- prised MCC's part-time faculty. The program at MCC this year has been expanded in several areas: more full time instructors, new equip- ment, and increased facilities represent growth in the curricula. Employment in the college has reached a record high. Including instructors, office assistants, and cafeteria and custodial help, eighty-eight persons cur- rently are working at the college. it ffsiwft' ig Director of Students DR. HILDA WELLS Director of Stndezztr Mrs. Dorothy Kramer, registrar, dupli- cates a transaction on the Thermofax copying machine. Not only does she take charge of sending and receiving tran- scripts, but she also manages the dean's correspondence. Acting as a liaison between various groups, Dr. Hilda Wells is Director of Student Activities at MCC. At times Dr. Wells is the contact between the stu- dents and the faculty as a group. When pupils wish to organize a club, she performs this function. As an advisor to the Student Council, she helps organize the Council and aids them in their work. At other times, Dr. Wells acts as an intermediary between local business and the student body. She attempts to match pupils wanting work with suitable employers. This year alone Dr. Wells found positions for more than one hundred students in business and industry. In her role as a co-ordinator, Dr. Wells also admin- isters the School and College Ability Test and the Constitution Test, assists in Honor Society, Phi Theta Kappa, selections, and heads the student teacher pro- gram in the Moline schools. Kim? ecretaries Perform Many Duties Mrs. Mary Riordan assists Mrs. Wanda Lambert in recording grades. ' ' Qi . E savjl.f.U WUI nn In addition to Registrar Mrs. Dorothy Kramer, the office staff consists of Mrs. Phyllis Peterson, Mrs. Mary Riordan, Mrs. Wanda Lambert, and Mrs. Jean Carlson. During the first semester, Mrs. Janette Ketelsen and Mrs. Joanna Greenwood were employed. Mrs. Phyllis Peterson administers the school insur- ance program at MCC, as well as helping with tran- scripts. Typing office records is another duty she has performed during her four years at MCC. Secretary to Mr. L. Everett Belote, Mrs. Mary Riordan, who also helps with typing, began her work in the college office in November. In addition to her secretarial duties Mrs. Riordan duplicates examinations for teachers. Mrs. Wanda Lambert succeeded Mrs. Janette Ketel- sen as the registrars assistant. When the end of the semester arrives and grades must be recorded, Mrs. Lambert takes this responsibility. She also handles class cards. Replacing Mrs. Joanna Greenwood in the bookroom during the second semester is Mrs. Jean Carlson. Head- Mrs. Phyllis Peterson agrees with Mrs. Jean Carl- son that the insurance forms are in order. ffm' ing Mrs. Carlson's duties are ordering books, mailing out class schedules, and taking charge of bookkeeping and banking for the college. The dispensing of information is one of the pri- mary services of the office staff. Vendors of the corn- modity are Mrs. Phyllis Peterson, who answers queries by telephone, and Mrs. Mary Riordan at the informa- tion desk. What type of questions are asked? Prospec- tive students want to know which courses are offered, the entry requirements for these courses, and their col- lege credit hours. Current students call to find out whether a certain class will be held, or whether an instructor has revealed the semesters grades. These are but a few of the many inquiries which face the secretaries each day. Aiding Arrowhead Ranch was the office staffs ma- jor Christmas time project. Each secretary at MCC adopted a child from the ranch for one evening. This evening was spent at a Christmas party, where each boy was presented a gift by his temporary parent. JOHN A.

Art and Music Among the many departments in the curricula offered at Moline Community College is the Fine Arts department, which includes courses in art and music. Modern projects for art classes are taught in Craft Workslmop. Art Appreciation, another class of the art department, aids students in gaining an under- standing of various phases of art. Lectures, discus- sions, field trips to local galleries, and audiofvisual aids are utilized by the instructor. Music Appreciation accomplishes a similar purpose in another field, enabling classes to enjoy classical and modern compositions. To students who pass the entrance audition, two additional music courses are available-Choir and Band. Also in this depart- ment classes in Public School Methods, Fundamentals of Music, and individual instruction in piano are offered. pm 56 'X use -,rr 3' 5 '1 A ' X i , .kg nba, 'dur-ri' 'Mm' in will -M- . . .

Headed by Mr. Van White, this division appeals not only to those wishing to complete a four-year degree, but also to persons desiring to learn new skills for their own benefit. Students enrolled in the university parallel pro- gram study subjects such as economics, accounting, statistics, and business law. Those who wish to ac- quire skills for their own personal use or to qualify for advancement in their present positions choose typing, shorthand, salesmanship, office or secretarial practice, advertising, or personal administration.

MCC Applauds the Faculty. . . Lectures,! Social Stzzfliey To meet the ever increasing need of stu- dents to learn about the problems of the world in which they live, the social studies department each year adds new courses or teachers or both. This year Anthropology was added to the many courses offered. This subject concerns the theories of human development and the racial variability of primitive society. Offering of courses in geography, history, and sociology, the social studies department stresses world problems and cultural develop- ment. Both the Elements of Geography, which deals with the physical makeup of the world and planetary relation, and Eco- nomic Geography, the study of industrial de- velopment and world trade, are offered. In history, courses such as the History of Western Civilization, English, American, po- litical science and current problems are avail- able. In addition to Principles of Sociology, a course in personality is offered. Wliat group of people settled here? asks Mr. Robert Nu- quist of Doug Peterson and Dan Louden, students taking History of Western Civilization. Sciences Two full time instructors were added to the science department this year, bringing the total to four. Zo- ology was extended to a full year course, the second semester dealing primarily with the vertebrate forms of animal life. Also included in the biological science division were Microbiology and Physiology, which were taught for nurses. Science majors found many chemistry and physics classes are offered in the phys- ical science category.

Student Council initiates New Activities, Highlighting Student Council activities this year were two innovations-a statewide conference and a fall semester semi- formal dance. Dr. Hilda Wfells, sponsor of Student Council, assisted the group in planning these and other events of the year. Comprising this years Student Council were Bil Blick, soph- omore, president, Dan Louden, freshman, secretary-treasurer, Paul Ross, sophomore representative, Dave Phelps and Bill Pekos, freshman representatives. These students served as a planning committee during both semesters. Bill Pekos headed the Councils first major project of the year-the publication of the student-faculty directory, a service offered for the second year. After receipts had paid for the soft drink machines in the basement lounge, the Student Council purchased a new water cooler for the ground floor, another main Council project. Sponsored by the Student Council were two principal social events of the school year: the Halloween dance and the Snow Swirl. Queen Sharon Brink reigned over the Snow Swirl, the first fall semester semi-formal dance, which will become an annual affair. Attendants were Sue Chapman, Pam O'Klock, Linda Alm- quist and Joan Buffalo.

To the first Student Council conference sponsored here by the MCC group on April 14, all the junior college council members in the state were invited. Fifty-four repre- sentatives came from Belleville, Canton, Joliet, Elgin and Morton. MCC Student Council members led discussions on prob- lems confronting junior colleges. The vis- itors exchanged views with MCC Council members about college life activities. Commerce Club Tours Chicago Board of Trade ,Win 'shi Planning activities for the fall semester of the Commerce Club are newly elected officers, Bob Mueller Qforegroundl, presidentg Shirley Lear, secretary-treasurer, and Bill Pekos, vice president, Touring the Chicago Board of Trade and the Fed- eral Reserve Bank highlighted the activities of the Commerce Club this year. Leaving by bus at 7:15 a. m. May 16, the members spent the day visiting these financial centers in Chicago. Grganized originally to foster friendly relation- ships between the club members and the business- men of the community, the group has now enlarged its sphere to include social as well as educational activities. First semester social events included a hayrack ride last fall and a student-faculty holiday tea served in the student study lounge after the Christmas assembly program. Fun was the keynote at the Faculty-Commerce Club basketball game played before the regularly scheduled Comet-Wilson cage game at Wharton Field House. In spite of the enthusiasm engendered by Cheerleaders Wells and Theorell, the infractions of rules by Fearless Firlus, the brawn of Bumpy Belote, the ballhandling of Feed-em Fiedler, the free-throw shooting of Killer White, and the re- bound of Tricky Dick Keeley and Wham-em Whalen, the Commerce Club claimed a thumping victory. Meetings this year were held bi-weekly on Wed- nesdays at 8:50 p. m. in Room 201. All students interested in business, not necessarily as a career, are welcome to join the club. Mr. Van White, head of the Business Education department, is the sponsor. Guiding the Commerce Club during the spring semester were these officers: from left Craig Gober, secretary-treasurerg Bill Pekos, president, and Tom Sheridan, vice- president. .

The space age was represented in a discussion on Rockets and Missiles by Mr. Floyd Goat, physics instructor at Moline High School, an astronomy lecture by Mel Peterson, professor of chemistry at Augustana, and a demonstration on liquid oxygen by Donald Rouser from the Bendix Corporation in Davenport. A field trip to the University of Chicago's science department gave variety to the club's activities. Here the members learned what to expect from science in the future. Members displayed their hobbies at a student home talent night in March. Hobbyists con- tributing to this program were jeff McFaclyen with his camera, Pat LaCrosse, his telescope, and Bil Blick, his ham radio outfit. The purpose of the organization is to promote in- terest in science. All students interested in this field were invited to join the club, which is sponsored by Mr. Carl Ekblad, chemistry and physics instructor at MCC.

The twelve-act presentation was emceed by stolid-faced John I I Timson, whose monologue on Kruschev's landing in the United I States had the audience wiping away tears of laughter. Assisted by Mr. Richard Keeley, director, the club members wrote most of the scripts for the show and also enacted the parts. It was evident that they enjoyed doing the show as much as the audience enjoyed watching it.

Club members, who delight in presenting the unusual and the original, sponsored Te-Moxie, a costume dance and three original skits, the second semester. Not satisfied with commonplace entertainment, they added to the enjoyment of their guests by providing prizes for the most original costumes. Winning the prizes for costumes were Barbara Meyers and Hygie Reynolds.

Spring Play, Romanoff and Juliet, Spirited chuckles and roaring laughter was the reaction of the audience to Ustinov's ROIIILZIZOJJT mm' Jzzljez' presented in the auditorium April 21. The satirical comedy con- cerned the diplomatic tomfooleries between the United States and the smallest country in Europe. Pam O'Klock, radiant as Juliet, used her feminine wiles to overcome the difficulties by falling in love with a com- munist, Romanoff, enacted by Riley Anderson. Paul Ross as The General, the part played by Ustinov in the original play, planned the collusion to bring the couple together. Through excellent costuming, comic dialogue and convincing acting, Paul and his cohorts, Frank Olson and Thomas Genn as the soldiers, kept laughter rippling through the auditorium.

The consol- ing and conciliating wife was enacted by Dorothy Uranich. The Russian contingent of the triangle starred Larry Jagnow as the ambassador, Sandra Schultz, his wife, Gary Heitman as the spy, and Alicia Holmes as Junior Captain Marfa Zlotochienko, a sloop cap- tain with whom Freddie falls in love. The doddering, deaf Archbishop, who through the connivance of the general marries Romanoff and Juliet, was expertly portrayed by Michael Kinney, whose experience in Shakespearean drama helped him to give authenticity to the role. Tom Bump and Dennis Frey as Death and the Saint added comedy through their mechanical move- ments and erratic antics in the clock tower. Production techniques were ably handled by Jeff MacFayden, assisted by Gary Millen and Edmund Mayhew. The three stage effects and settings were planned and supervised by Director, Richard Keeley and were constructed by Riley Anderson, Ray Hamilton, Bill Montgomery, Valerie Olson, and Hygie Reynolds. Student director was Robert Van Raesg Bonnie Schultz served as stage manager. Mr, Richard Keeley, director of the show and sponsor of Te-Moc hams it up with Dorothy Uranich and Gary Heitman.

Such changes which frequently occur are a constant challenge to the Comet reporters. Pub- lishing the bi-weekly newspaper is a big job, but as the reporters become more experienced they begin to welcome changes as a test of their ingenuity. On the staff last fall were Larry Jagnow, Riley Anderson, John Cooklin, Gary Heitman, Barbara Meyers, Bill Pekos, Margaret Platt, Tom Sheridan, Arlene Thomas, and Steve Witte. The staff was inexperienced in journalism when they started their work on the paper, but soon they were interviewing students and teachers for news, writing stories and headlines, and assist- ing with page layouts. Because of this inexperience, the staff was pleased when ACP, the Associated Collegiate Press, awarded the Comet a First Class Honor Rating in the national critical rating. This was the highest numerical rating the newspaper has achieved to date with last semesters issues net- ting 3,410 points out of a possible 3,500. Coverage, content, and physical properties make up the standards of judging. ACP Again Awards Comet First Class mfwa ,aw 4,1 - ,f J 1 ' f'0f4 1 ' 'V f - f ' , s .v -BQ' 1' THQ: dm 1.

Linda Almquist, Shirley Lear, janet Pearson, and Linda Tompkins were selected by Dr. Hilda Wfells at the beginning of the fall semester. Debbie Anderson substituted for janet, who was unable to continue midway in the season due to illness. The girls, who appeared in sweaters and skirts of black with a gold megaphone, which contained the word Comets, emblazoned across the front of the sweaters, aroused school spirit. Also, the pepsters taught will- ing students new cheers which were employed at every home game. MCC was sparked by three freshmen and Shirley Lear, who has finished her second year as a Comet Cheerleader. is gg4 4 1 l r.

Coach Torn Kienle, who completed his eighth year this season as basket- ball coach, aided the MCCers in compiling .1 15-7 overall mark. The Comets were spearheaded by these returning lettermen: Ray Hamilton, Dick Martel, Bob Mueller, Dan O'Brien, Bob Oritz, and Ron Swanson, freshmen, Dennis Frey, Dan Hull, Melvin McLaughlin, Rich Van DeVoorde, Mernice Vandel, and Jim Xveberg and sophomores, jim Hooven and Dan Lingafelter, aided the squads winning cause. Hosting Clinton junior College in the first game of the year, the Kienlemen rolled to an impressive 85-67 triumph. Keokuk's Komets were MCC's next victim, as Ray Hamilton sparked his mates to a 92-65 rout. After sneaking past Morton C., 71-70, the Comets extended their winning pace to seven games with victories over Thornton, 78-70, XXfilson, 79-7-1, Wfright, 79-76, and Burlington, 7-f-71. A Mississippi Valley junior College Conference encounter with Muscatine marred the cagers' unblemished record as the Indians of Muscatine improvised a war dance that overwhelmed MCC, 90-84. The Kienlemen then strayed from orbit for the first time in the Illinois junior College Conference, as a powerful Joliet quintet downed them 95-67. Wfitli a balanced scoring attack and a blistering 558 shooting percentage from the field, MCC roared back by smashing Amundsen, 112-63. Comets Tie Joliet For IJCC Crown Thundering to a 107-75 win over Keokuk, the Comets downed their southern Iowa rivals for the second time, but Muscatine proved to be a stumbling block again. Kienle's warriors dropped a 76-65 de- cision to the MVJCC champions. Wharton Field House was the scene of another Comet triumph, as MCC handed Crane's Huskies an 85-69 defeat. Bradley's always powerful freshmen entertained MCC' in an annual affair, and the little Braves, led by their giant 6-9 center, Joe Strawdar, pounded the smaller Moline club, 81-54. MCC got back on the victory trail by toppling the century mark for the third time when the Comets out ran their hosts, La Grange, 110-94. Rich Van DeVoorde pumped in 27 markers to garner the gamefs scoring honors. Successive losses to Clinton and Burlington ended the Comets' MVJCC season. Clinton handed Moline an 82-71 setback, and the Blackhawks of Burlington rambled to a 90-76 win. MCC then racked up victory No. 8 in the UCC, by blasting Elgin C., 79-58. Keeping stride in the race for the Illinois loop Look out! may well be the words for an unidentified La Salle player C51j, as Ray Ham- ilton prepares to do some ball- stealing. Equally astonished at Ray's action is Rich Van De Voorde C351 title, MCC downed a new entry to the conference, Bloom, 80-69. By defeating La Salle, 91-81, the locals tied Joliet for the IJCC crown. Dan Hull paced the win with 52 tallies. Coach Kienles cagers competed in the state tourney, and, after receiving a bye for the first tilt, the Comets won their next play-off game. MCC rang up an 88-65 win over Morton. Early in the clash, Morton main- tained a 10-6 lead, but the Kienlemen scored 33 straight points to take a commanding lead. However, Wilson's run, shoot, and run offense eliminated Mo- line from the tournament, 96-78. Moline Community College terminated the basket- ball season with a first place finish in the UCC and a second place mark in the Valley conference. Ray Hamilton led the Comet scoring attack with a 20- point per game average over the entire year. Dan O'Brien and Bob Mueller left the team after the fall semester, graduating this spring were Ray Ham- ilton, Dick Martel, Bob Grtiz, and Ron Swanson.

Team Mississippi Valley Conferencel Veterans Dan Hull, Ray Hamilton, Dick Martel, Bob Ortiz, and Rich Van DeVoorde dominated the Mississippi Valley Junior College Conference all-star team, which was selected late in the basketball season. Hamilton, Martel, and Ortiz were cited first team honors, Van DeVoorde was picked to the second team, Hull was listed on the honorable mention list. The conference squads consisted of an eight-man first squad, and an eight-man second squad. The Comets and Muscatine junior College had the most members named to the loop teams. Of the five cagers named to the conference squad, Hamilton, Martel, and Ortiz will not be back next season. Ray Hamilton led the MCC scoring attack this season with a 20-point per game average. Ray finished the 1959-60 cam- paign with nearly an identical average. Dick Martel and Bob Ortiz were the playmakers for the Comets. Their constant hustle and winning spirit enabled the squad to compile its splendid record. MCC's 6 foot 5 inch pivot man, Dan Hull, developed into a fine center. Dan lacked actual game experience before attend- ing Moline Community College, but near the end of the season he contributed greatly to the team effort. Guard Rich Van DeVoorde, a product of Geneseo's basket- ball team, secured his position early in the 1960-'61 season. He played it well and ended close behind Hamilton for individual scoring leader. v-Q 'V' ll f--xr--4-.

Wfarming up at the 12 foot 13 inch mark, pole vaulter, Ron Frey displays his form. For the first time in its history, MCC offered track in the sports program. Under the direction of Mr. Gordon Taylor, who coached track at john Deere junior High for seven years before coming here, the newly formed track squad participated in four meets. In the nrst meet, the MCC sprinters competed with the St. Ambrose varsity. The Bees garnered 80 points to MCC's 45. Splitting a pair of dual meets, the cindermen rolled the Augustana freshman-sophomore squad, 83-39, but lost to Monmouth, 71-60. In the second meeting with St. Ambrose, the Bees overcame an early Comet lead to take an 89-52 decision. In individual honors Dave jackson, the dash and hurdles, and Ron Swanson, the high jump and hurdles, captured Comet victories in all four meets, Doug Peterson captured firsts in the discus in two meets, and Bob Hall, the high jump and pole vault, and Al Schnoebelen, the dash, both took firsts in one meet. Earning a letter this year were Bob I-Iall, Dave jackson, Dave Johnson, Dick Lange, Doug Peterson, Bob Pyevich, Al Schnoebelen, Ron Sims, Bob Smith, and Ron Swanson. High-point man for the season was Dave Jackson. Run- ning in the 220-yard low hurdles and the 100-yard dash, Dave compiled 84 points.

Swanson One Of Nation's Best Jumpers Sophomore Ron Swanson leaped into stardom this season in competition with other college track squads. Before Ron enrolled at the college in 1959, he had tied for the high school high jump of Illinois, and had served in the Marine Corps. This spring he was able to compete in his favorite sport, track, since it was offered this year at MCC. He resumed competitive high jumping this spring to become the jumpingest human ever to inhabit the Quad- Cities, according to record books. Competing at the Elmhurst Relays, Ron reached his personal high when he soared across the bar at 6 feet 621, inches, a new record for the Relays. He barely missed at 6-9, his goal. This spring, Ron participated at Elmhurst, the Mon- mouth Relays, and the State Inter-Collegiate meet at Bradley University. He bettered a record 6 feet 6 inches in all those meets. Ron has never been defeated while competing with Moline Community College, and this is amazing since his schedule consisted of work, classes at college, and high jumping. In fact, this high jumper usually got off work Saturdays at 7:30 a. m., and then drove as much as 160 miles to the meet. Although he has never cleared the 6-9 mark, Ron vows, 'Tm going to keep trying, and I'm going to make it some day. 1961 Season Record MCC ...... 45 St. Ambrose Varsity ...... 80 MCC ...... 83 Augustana Frosh-Sophs ...39 Z W- RoN SWANSON 55: 4 . fi- MCC ...... 60 Monmouth .............. 71 MCC ...... 52 St. Ambrose Frosh-Sophs H84 Weightman Doug Peterson grimaces as he prepares to launch the discus into orbit.

Craig Gober, the returning letterman from last years squad, also played for three years on the Moline High School team. A graduate of Rock Island High School, Dan Stevenson was a player on that schools team, jim Soucinek, the other experienced linksman, was a mem- ber of the United Township High school team last year. Mr. Van Wfhite, head of the Business Education department, served as coach this year. Coach Wlaite scheduled several meets this spring. but only the meet with St. Ambrose materialized. The MCC golfers were defeated in this interscholastic affair held on May 9 at the Indian Bluff Golf Course. Participating in the dual meet in addition to Craig, Dan, and Jim were Dennis Frey, Frank Olson, and John Timson. Craig was medalist. Rounding out the team were Bill Bestor, Larry Jagnow, and Steve Wfitte. Coach W'hite received an invitation to send the team to the National junior College Golf Tourna- ment in Odessa, Texas. The invitation could not be accepted since none of the golfers were able to attend. Coach Wfhite also planned to send the golfers to the Muscatine Play Day, but a mix-up in dates prevented the MCC golfers from attending. Letter winners were Craig, Frank, Jim, Dan, and john Timson. They received their awards at the Recognition Dinner. Swinging their golf clubs in unison are the MCC golfers, as they prepare to par the course.

Swimming was again offered this year as a night physical education class. Twenty-one signed up for that activity. Instructing the course was Miss Ruby Maurer and Mr. L. D. Sinclair. Meeting on Monday nights, the class was formed into two groups according to their swimming skills. One group was made up of begin- ners, the other, of those who knew how to swim fairly well. Each session the students learned new strokes and practiced them. In- cluded among the strokes they learned were the backstroke, butterfly, breast stroke, crawl, and the dog paddle. An unknowing passerby ducks in the nick of time . . In the evening golf classes, offered for credit, twenty-eight stu- dents enrolled in the spring semester. Mr. Hugo Birkhahn was again the instructor. Members of the classes perfected their techniques during the class sessions and at home. After several months of practice, they put to use their newly acquired skills by traveling to the Blackhawk Driving Range to practice. Then on May 18 they went to the Indian Bluff Golf Course to play a complete game. Although the students did not par the course, the actual experience of playing eighteen holes aided them greatly. am., f ,. . ,am WM ey-wi S?

Terminating its second year at Moline Community College, the intramural program, headed by Larry jag- now. president, included both basketball and volleyball. A seven-game season and an eight-team tournament comprised the basketball activity. Regular season play was won by -loe Donovans club, the tourney was won by the team of which Curt Carlson, Dan Roman, Ron Shook, Ron Sims, and Charles Sorenson were members. The championship squad garnered the play-off crown by defeating jerry Lancasters crew in a sudden-death overtime, 66-64. The teams which participated in the tournament were captained by joe Donovan, jim I-lyldahl, Larry Jagnow, jerry Lancaster, Don Mason, Dave O'Bert, Charles Sor- enson, and Bob Thompson. By virtue of defeating Donovan and Jagnow, the championship club entered the finals. Lancasters second place crew obtained victories over Hyldahl and Thomp- son in order to compete for the crown. Scoring leader for the entire season was Dennis Fulk with a Z7-points per game average. Although basketball dominated I-M activities, volley- ball was also played. The Won1en's Recreation Associa- tion combined forces with the intramural program so that both men and women could participate in the sport. l'l :l l 1 l I 1 l 1 I 'l l I v l l l 1 s l J I l l l I l l l l I I l l l l l 1 I l l T l l 2 l T l l l l l l l l l i l I 4 l l I l 1 l l l A l ffl ' 1 I i ag' ..

Social recreation was one of the pur- poses for the organizing of the Women's Recreation Association. In addition to business meetings and sports, the twenty- four members sponsored a swimming party and a picnic. Joan Buffalo was elected president for the spring semester, Anne Mattison, vice- presidentg and Joyce Stange, secretary. The faculty sponsor was Mrs. Phyllis Firlus. Meetings were held every other Tuesday in the college gymnasium at 8 p. m. Members of the WRA engaged in such sports as basketball, volleyball, bowl- ing, badminton, swimming, and table tennis. On the membership committee were Sue Chapman, Linda Almquist, and Kay Leistikog in charge of drawing up the constitution were Joanne Whitmore, Ellen Aull, Kay Leistiko, and Barb Harlow.

Mr. Gordon Taylor, who also served as track coach, taught the P. E. classes. He took over after Mr. Paul Womack jr. served for one semester. Wrestling, gymnastics, volleyball, and physical fitness were the main activities stressed. Mr. Taylor, who was an assistant wrestling coach at john Deere Junior High School, introduced wrestling in the physical education classes. The classes met on Tuesday and Thursday. There were three groups, and the total number of students in all three classes was 63.

Seventeen boys and ten girls made up the new class, which met twice a week in the college gyI'Il1'1ElS11.1fH. Things started at a lively pace for the new stu- dents. Songs such as Shake, Rattle, and Roll filled the air as dancers learned the jitterbug. Easing their aching muscles in the ensuing weeks, the students practiced waltzing to such old favorites as Always, Tenderly, and Alice Blue Gown. Mrs Firlus then taught her students the foxtrot, tango, and cha- cha. The rhumba, polka, and somba were also in- cluded. Three good reasons were given by Mrs. Firlus as the purposes of a social dance class: it provides a course in physical education suitable to people of all agesg it is a good social function, and it is the best exercise for college students. Techniques the co-eds learned in the social dance class organized this semester are exhibited at this all school swirl The particular dance the students are keeping time to is the ujitterbugf' V.

MCC Offers Courses to Student Nurses Enrollment of women students is increased every year by the addition of first year student nurses. In conjunction with the Moline Public Hospital, MCC offers the nurses courses in sociology, psychology, and the physical and biological sciences. The student nurses have .1 busy schedule. They re- ceive twenty hours of credit for their work which is applied toward their R. N. degree or transferred to a four-year college to satisfy requirements for a B. A. degree. J s ANN This year classes in biological science formerly taught at the hospital by an MCC instructor have been trans- ferred to the college. Instructors are Dr. Hilda Wells, Mr. Carl Elqblad, and Mr. Gordon Taylor. Not only do the nurses comply with the rigors of study, they also participate in the social and theat- rical events here such as Te-Moc and the dances. Sharon Brink, one of the nurses, was elected Snow Queen this year, She reigned at the Snow Swirl. In turn they invite the MCC men to their coke parties. 35 ai Mr. Gordon Taylor, right, explains the intricacies of the microscope to the stu- dent nurses taking micro- biology. Seated at the table are Linda Edmund, Aga Rita Nelson, jo Bridgeman, Carol Moore, and Sandra y Gonyier. Sfmzding are Pat Sweeden, Nancy Anderson, Karen Bickford, Sharon Rogas, and Betti Berman.

Several times a week students from the Palmer School of Chiropractics drive from Davenport to at- tend classes here in biology, chemistry, and physics. Through a joint agreement in 1952 between the schools, MCC as an accredited college arranged classes to aid students from several states to meet the re- quirements of their respective examining boards. This year seventeen students, all from Pennsylvania, are enrolled in the courses. Their backgrounds, ages, Q .4-. ,iv if and earnest ambitions make this a unique group. Among them can be found a former taxidermist, a shoe factory worker, a pencil maker, and a branch manager for a Hnance company. Many also have just graduated from high school. Mrs. Phyllis Firlus and Mr. Carl Ekblad, instruc- tors in the science department, teach the classes at- tended by these students. Palmer Students Enroll in Sciences Ready for class are the students from the Palmer School of Chiropractics taking science courses at MCC.

University of Illinois, M. of Ed. l il V Adult Education Program Mr. L. Everett Belote was appointed this year as the Director of Technical, Vocational, and Adult Educa- tion. I-Ie also serves as head of the Electronics and En- gineering Department. For three years before coming to MCC Mr. Belote was instructor for industrial arts and vocational print- ing at Alton Senior High School, and for two years he was superintendent of Mounds Township High School District 34. To serve the community to the fullest, Moline Community College has a triple role: it offers uni- versity parallel coursesg it offers courses on a terminal basis for the student who does not plan to transfer his credits to a senior college or university for appli- cation toward a bachelors degree, it offers courses on a non-credit basis to those who desire to enrich their background, pursue a hobby, prepare for a position in business or industry, or to qualify for advance- ment in his present position. Miss Lela Adams, Homemaking Supervisor, has headed this department since 1947. She also teaches home eco- nomics on the high school level. In the Adult Education program Miss Adams selects the courses to be offered each semester, chooses the teachers for the various classes, and determines the time these classes will be held. Miss Adams also teaches a class in parent education in co-operation with the Parent-Teacher Association in the elementary and junior high schools. This year Mr. Belote laid the ground Work for the expansion of the program for the next school year. After many conferences with local and state officials and with Mr. Lester F. Vines of East Mo- line, a joint program in technical and vocational courses by Moline Community College and the East Moline Technical Institute will be offered next year. This spring Mr. Belote edited a bulletin describing the pur- poses and the courses of this technical and vocational program. Miss LELA ADAMS Bradley University, B. S. University of Illinois, M. S.

These classes give women the opportunity to express their ideas of style in hats. Mrs. Melba Bernine of Chicago comes to Moline every week in order to teach the mil- linery classes. This year the class sessions have been extended to three hours in length to give additional time to planning and creation. There are no set patterns of study applied in these classes. Melba provides the profes- sional help that enables the women to produce stylish hats. Mrs. Marvin Fagerli tries on the hat which she designed in the millinery class during the Christmas season. Tailoring is designed for the women who have had a great deal of experience in sew- ing. The students usually direct their inter- est toward a project such as a coat or suit for which skill and experience is required. Mrs. Bonnell instructs this class and makes suggestions to the students about careful se- lection of project and fabric to be used. The Dressmaking Technique classes pro- vide a firm foundation for the students in- terested in Tailoring, a more advanced class. Mrs. Annette Bonnell, the instructor, is advising two students on the techniques of tailoring and giving additional ideas upon selection of pattern and fabric in relation to color and texture. . . . ff' Q . sf'-f ' 'ff ,' 4 silo' .4 .. ,.., V E, .ffc La .451 Q 1' Z' , ' ii 7 is Three Courses Available in Dressmaking ll If ' span ge, , N2 45 i ' .

Besides including specific aspects of room arrangement, individual problems are dis- cussed and held trips are taken. Mrs. Virginia Hill, the instructor, suggests several projects which can be presented to the students in the Home Decoration classes. Dr. Renate Armstrong, consultant, supervises as two of her students take vocational aptitude tests. This class is set up to help individuals plan intelligently for the future.
