MICHIGAN STATE NORMAL COLLEGE YPSILANTI, MICHIGAN 1944 r -Jjedi tli icciuon Innate in every American is the desire to serve. To serve! To us that means not the destruction of the individualism and the essence of American living, but the pro motion of the general welfare of each. We are an ambitions and purposeful people, eager to experience the success resulting from our labors. Enthusiasm for our work is prompted by the anticipation of final achievement. Thus it is that the year 1944 has found us a nation in service. A world-wide co?ifiict has necessitated the participation of all people in a united effort to win not only the war but also the peace. America ' s me i and women are serving i?i the armed forces, producing the armaments and supplies needed by the fighting men, contributing their time to wartime activities, and studying with increased interest under the impetus of the prevailing need. Xo one is allowed to forget that this is his war. Service is stressed, it is encouraged, it is publicized, it is impressed upon the minds of the people. But service is also composed of the smaller peacetime deeds developing from the individual ' s contributiofis toward any good end. It may be work well done for one ' s college, functioning o)i a committee, or merely giving one ' s support to a planned activity. For those who serve, the accomplished task is the reward for then- effort. To serve is to accomplish. To those who live the American spirit of service the nineteen hundred and forty-four AURORA is dedicated. a- Editor . . . Janet Mitchell opeu or J II e, the staff , present the nineteen hundred and forty -jour AURORA, a printed record of one of your years at Michigan State Normal College. Some of the events recorded will within a short time have been forgotten; others will re?nain as life time memories. The A UROR. i is published to help you keep this year you have lived as a factual reality. Because it has become an integral part of your life, both in and out of the college surroundings, service was selected as the theme. You have become accustomed to the added push required to reach the desired end and have found the pearl of satisfaction that comes from achievement. Due to the decreased enrollment each campus activity has called for the support of the entire student body. It has been given, a?id you have witness in the success of the events the result of this service. But your cooperatio? has not been confined to the college alone as you have answered the greater needs for service, which have been blood-donors, Red Cross workers, bond buyers, and members of the U.S.O. Your contributions have demanded the use of the mind and the hand. The mind commands; the hand performs. Because performance is essential to service the ha?id was selected to portray the theme. We give you the hands of the administrator, the student the club member, the athlete, and the soldier assuming their dutiful roles in the world of today . Business Manager . . .

Building, lie the governing agencies of our college. The wide, quiet corridor which runs the full length of the building is typical of the atmosphere which pervades the inner offices, those of the president, the deans, and the registrar. In those offices affairs of every student are handled with equal consider- ation and understanding. Working with them during these days of uncertainty and constant change have been the faculty and officers of the student-administration groups. ADM I N ISTRATION w — — JE « f ' M«Br ■ President Join W. W, Our president, John M. Munson, has been the administrative head of his alma mater, Michigan State Normal College, since 1933. Before that time he acted as school superintend- ent, public education official, training school director, and college executive. The service he has rendered to the Michigan educational system throughout the years in these and his present position is immeasurable. During his years as president an extensive building program has been developed. To his undon efforts must be credited the existence of eight new buildings since 1937. The strain and stress of war-time readjust- ment has fallen on no one more than on Presi- dent Munson. To him all problems of import- ance ultimately progress and through him affairs of the state and government are interpreted to the students and the A.S.T.P. Through all the unrest he has set an example in actions as well as words that is an inspiration to every person on campus. Hill, Farnham, Steimle. Brown, Rynearson, Isbell. M, t, minidtra It is the administrative officers of our college who assume the duties of guiding the new freshmen through the correct channels until they evolve as trained teachers. Perhaps the most unpretentious department on campus, its importance can only be understood when the value of its guidance to the student is fully realized. Class schedules and general programs have a habit of becoming most confusing. During harassing days of classifying, as well as at all other times, program and schedule difficulties are miraculously ironed out under the capable supervision of Dean of Administration Egbert R. Isbell and Mr. C. P. Steimle, Registrar. Sociai and employment problems present a continuous challenge to the Deans, offices. ' .Hue Kjlli icerS Dean of Women Susan B. Hill, Assistant Dean of Women Frances Farnham, Dean of Men James M. Brown, and Acting Dean of Men Elton Rynearson have done a very commendable job in fulfilling the demands made on them. The responsibilities of both the Dean of Ad- ministration and the Dean of Men have been increased in the past three years through their efforts to keep in contact with Michigan State Normal College men now in some branch of the armed forces. In the turmoil of our busy school year we often fail to express appreciation for the part the Administrative Officers play in making our campus the smoothly running organization that it is. 10 Despite somewhat crowded quarters and threats of impending lights out , dormitory life has lost none of its appeal during the past year with residents of Julia Anne King and Bertha M. Goodison Residence Halls for women enjoying the customary midnight snacks, bull sessions, and study hours which go to make up dorm life. Miss S. Martha Robbins served Goodison Hall as head resident during the first semester, and Miss Verna Carson took over when she left. Mrs. Minnie Baltzer functioned as assistant head resident. King Hall residents were Miss Alma Carmichael and Miss Wil la- belle F. Carr. Assisting the head residents with the job of maintaining the smooth and efficient running of the dormitories were the dormitory House Councils. John M. Munson Hall, men ' s residence hall, has seen many changes during the past year. On the second, third and fourth floors, bugle calls and G. I. attire designate the somewhat obvious fact that the Army has moved in. On the first floor, however, civilian life remains. Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Gildenstein, with their young daughter, continue to efficiently manage this civilian element, making Munson Hall a pleasant campus home for the men living there. dJorfnlioru rreuds j Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Gildenstein.

The problem of feeding the dorm-fulls of girls at King and Goodison Residence Halls is one that is of great importance, because their health is dependent — highly dependent on the type of food they eat. During war-time, especially, poor health is a detri- ment to any nation, and so Mrs. Lucy A. Elliott, director of the residence halls, finds her duties highly necessar The past school year has found her serving the residenc halls in a dependable and highly commendable manne which is saying much in these days of food scarcity an ration-point maneuvering. hreulih IKesldi ence Health Residence is a low, modern, well- equipped brick building at the corner of campus, where Dr. Glenadine Snow cap- ably manages her small staff and carries the many respon- sibilities of health residence. Heat and light treatments, care of the injured and sick, and physical examinations are services offered to every student. The general health of the whole student body rests in the hands of the Health Residence Staff, who willingly provide needed services. Beerbower, Snow, Hughes. 12 (c J ennu thrall y Graltan, Farnham.

Andrews Trabilcox Milliman, D. During busy days of term paper com- piling and hunting reference material, it is the library staff which manages to have the right things on hand when needed. Headed by Miss Elsie V. Andrews, the library staff efficiently guides be- wildered freshmen around its rooms, supplies the needs of the usually frantic upperclassmen, and keeps the library a smoothly running organization. 13 Speech McKay, Stowe, Kelly. Dr. Frederick B. McKay and the professors who assist him point their efforts toward mak- ing proficient public speakers of the many students and army men under their direction. The speech department not only organizes and directs all formal classes in speech, from beginning freshman classes to advanced inter- pretative reading, but also sees to it that Michigan State Normal College students are given ample opportunity to associate in lively competition with students from other colleges throughout the state. Their excellent coaching has sent many prize-winning students to inter- collegiate contests in oratory, extemporaneous speaking, debate, and prose and poetry read- ing. Also, instruction in correct parliamentary pro- cedure and various types of group discussion equip students with ability to cooperate. C nalidk An understanding and appreciation of English Literature and the incentive to write one sown ideas well are a result of a course of study taken by many students in the English depart- ment, directed by Professor Gerald D. Sanders and his staff. A complete study of English Literature is available to the English major for the period 9 courses, ranging from Old English and Chaucer to modern poetry and prose, are a large part of the department ' s curriculum. A course in American Literature offers a study of the best in our country ' s literary achievement. Rhetoric classes, required of all freshmen, serve as an excellent basis for the advanced courses in grammar and creative writing.

We can only hope for an everlasting peace in the world of tomorrow if we ourselves put forth an effort to understand the peoples of the world and display a genuine interest in their ways of living, their creeds, and beliefs. Necessary auxiliaries to any such plans on an intelligent basis are a knowledge of the lan- guage of those peoples. Under the direction of Mrs. Sabourin, the staff of the Language The necessity of a good background of his- tory and an understanding of the forces that have made society what it is, is a recognized necessity in almost any profession, especially teaching. Dr. Simon E. Fagerstrom, head of the History and Social Science Department, and his col- leagues are busy doing their part to fulfill this necessity in every possible phase. History students, majors and minors, faithfully attend Department is aiming toward better understand- ing and appreciation through the languages, preparing students for work in reconstruction of war-torn countries or as teachers who will continue this understanding and appreciation by passing it on to their pupils. The Modern Language Department is located on the second floor of the library, while the classical languages, are taught in Pierce Hall. Social c cience classes on the second floor of Pierce Hall and are instructed in American History, Ancient and Medieval History, Modern History, Eng- land and the British Empire, Sociology, Polit- ical Science, and Economics. The introduction of a new course dealing with the American Democracy has been an addition to those offered by the department in an effort to further prepare Michigan Normal students to be active post-war citizens. Back Row: Engelsman Alden Waugh Blackenburg Front Row: Warren Ericson Thomson Fagerstrom Devol Hubbell Field The department of Physics and Astronomy, under the direction of Dr. Harry L. Smith, has met the stress of wartime with admirable calm- ness and capability. In addition to the usual civilian classes this department, like others on campus, has taken on the greatly added re- sponsibilities of training the men in t he Army Specialized Training Program. The natural laws of the physical world, such as electricity, the mechanics of solids, astronomy, and the me- chanics of heat and sound, are studied. Time is spent in both learning the theories of such subjects and testing their validity in the lab- oratory. Physical science, being as highly necessary as it is today, is finding an aura of new im- portance surrounding its work. Its training will insure good post-war instruction as well as immediate usage in theaters of war. In a world of modern war-fare, such as our fighting men are meeting today, it is obvious that chemistry in all its phases is highly im- portant. Constant new discoveries, and the consequent need for trained and skilled workers are reasons enough why the field is yearly attracting more and more students. Dr. Perry S. Brundage, head of our Chemistry Department which is situated in the Science Building, and his staff ha ve been meeting to the highest possible degree of efficiency the demands war-time has been making upon his department. The future world as well as the present world profit from their teachings. a entiAtn ¥ Sellers Brundage Conn Cnpps PL Kruwell Smith Elliott Slick Wygant ' 51C5 16 In a world at war the importance of mathe- matics is becoming greater and greater. Dr. Lindquist heads the Mathematics Department, whose major task, though it seems this year to have been instructing the A.S.T.P., is still ably preparing mathematics teachers for the schools, as well as preparing men for other professions in which a knowledge of math is essential. For these, courses in higher algebra, calculus, and trigonometry are offered, and for commercial and business students there are also classes in investment mathematics and in- surance. The staff of the Geography Department, under the direction of Dr. James H. Glasgow, has found itself one of the essentials in both edu- cational and social phases of campus life dur- ing the past year. Between classes as well as during them they have offered aid to be- wildered feminine students who have frantic- ally tried to place their over-seas boy-friends. Aside from this, and of wider importance, is the keen interpretation of the news of the pre ' sent war world that a study of geography brings. Miss Sill has contributed a column, Review of World News , to the issues of the college paper, and Dr. Hoy has given informal lectures on his experiences in the government service in South America to enrich the general knowledge.

Seeing that every student in its department knows what she should about the finer points of cooking and sewing, as well as other phases of practical homemaking, is the duty of the Home Economics Department, under the direction of Miss Estelle Bauch. The courses offered provide instruction in meal planning and cooking, food buying and preparation, care, selection, and making of clothing. All home economics majors must spend one semester in the Home Economics Practice House, and there, before being sent out to practice what they learn, get ample opportunity to try homemaking in all its aspects. The practice house is under the direction of Miss Eula Underbrink. The Industrial Arts Department, under the supervision of Professor George A. Willoughby, is located in the basements of the Administra- tion Building and Welch Hall. Offering courses that appeal equally to men and women, the department offers instruction in such forms as practical electricity, mechanical drawing, household mechanics, metal work, and skilled handwork. Future teachers in these fields realize the need of the schools for their type of work. Exhibits, which appear at unscheduled inter- vals, show the amazing capabilities of students trained in these fields, and also instill in the student an urge for originality and perfection.

The second floor of the Administration Building is difficult to pass through quickly if not because of the paintings, murals, and posters which line the walls, then because of the fact that the visitor catches sight of some interesting work within a room, or becomes wide-eyed watching a class in life-sketching or something equally appealing. Classes not only intrigue majors, but many hopefuls who appreciate art in spite of their lack of native ability. Swete, McAllister, Gill. Under the supervision of Professor Haydn M. Morgan, the staff of the Conservatory of Music is preparing students to go forth capably equipped to develop music throughout the school system. Sponsoring two general pro- grams, the Public School Music Course and the Band and Orchestra Course, the Conservatory offers ample opportunity for training in both of these fields. The Normal College Choir, the orchestra and the band offer the training in ensemble work that is of great value to the future teachers of music. Student recitals and concerts give individuals opportunities for the solo work which is of great help to any musician. Back Row: Lindegren, Plann, Ryan, Morgan, Ashby, Fossenkemper.

Phases of commercial work covered by students majoring in the de- partment are typing, shorthand, accounting, business law, advertising, and salesmanship. The handwriting course, required of all stu- dents before graduation, to insure legible writing for the future teachers, is also taught by this department. Commercial instructors, being in demand, are in a position to be of great service to our nation through training the minds of their students in good business techniques in this, its time of emergency. Herrick, Springman. Dr. Clarence M. Loesell, of the Natural Science Department, and his staff aim to pro- mote deeper interest in and appreciation of the natural environment which makes up the world in which we live. The courses are not only designed to benefit students specializing in the Natural Science field, but to any one interested in this study. Students in this de- partment can often be seen experimenting with gardens in the rear of the Science Building, or collecting nature specimens about the cam- pus grounds. The new Hover Building of Natural Science, named for Dean J. Milton Hover, was opened to classes this year and is one of the finest buildings of its type in the state.

Not only does the rural school teacher have to be ready to teach such courses as geography, history, reading, spelling, arith- metic, and any others that may be demanded, but must act as a recreational director during recesses and lunch hours, and be ready, Johnny-on-the-spot, to face any and all sit- uations which arise. The Rural Education Department realizes the importance of the country school. It has been very active in training teachers to take their places in the rural education system. The rural child must be given the same opportunity, as far as possible, to make something of himself that every other child is given. The aim of the Physical Education Depart- ment, under the direction of Professor Joseph H. McCulloch, is not only to prepare students as directors of playgrounds, but also to provide much needed relaxation and exercise for busy students on campus. The women ' s division, under the direction of Miss Ruth L. Boughner, plans courses to fit the requirements of as many students as possible. The freshman gym classes, newly arranged to help the freshman girls get acquainted with themselves, have proven to be successful as well as highly popular. The men ' sdivision, under Professor McCulloch, has been doubly busy with the military physical education courses as well as civilian courses under their auspices.

I liiisical (Lctu cation 21 C di tit tic ci i ion Perhaps the most significant department in view of the teacher training at Michigan State Normal College is the Educational Department, headed by Dr. Noble Lee Garrison. In the classes, such as principles of teaching, educa- tional psychology, and tests and measurements taught by the faculty under his direction, stu- dents learn the techniques which they later use in teaching. The importance of the Placement Bureau, directed by Dr. Leslie A. Butler, is realized by the seniors, who rely on it for their next year ' s position. At bi-weekly critic meetings Dr. Butler delivers lectures on guiding prin- ciples for those who are practice teaching. Special C ducati T ucciiion The long low building bordering the north- ern edge of the campus houses the Special Education Department. Dr. Francis E. Lord heads a faculty group of thirteen members who instruct college classes as well as the handi- capped youngsters attending the school. Work in all phases of Special Education in the schoolroom is given, and the fine laboratory school, named for Horace H. Rackham, offers an excellent opportunity for training special class teachers. As a college course an adult speech reading course is taught for the hard of hearing. Occupational Therapy, the im- portance of which cannot be overemphasized, is another division of Special Education.

All the early training, all the painful units, notebooks, charts, and various other types of research work,- all are showing their mark. This is the climax or the show down . Lincoln Training School, one of the two laboratory schools connected with the Mich- igan State Normal College, offers typical op- portunities for the new teachers to show their abilities. Criticisms are offered at regular intervals, and are designed at all times toward constructive teaching. The school, under the supervision of Principal Ben. H. Vanden Belt, serves a rural district with educational facil- ities for kindergarten and twelve grades. f oodeveit In a country which places the responsibility for her future in the hands of its educators to the extent America does, one of the chief duties of any teacher-training school is to pro- duce teachers ready to meet any of the respon- sibilities which would be thrust upon them. During war-time, with the additional problems that occur during a time of emergency, this duty becomes a form of direct service from the college to the nation at war. Principal Leonard Menzi and his faculty of Roosevelt Training School are cognizant of this fact. Training standards for teachers remain high and rigid. Teachers are being trained to the fullest extent of their capabilities. America need net fear for her tomorrow! Fourth Row: Laing, Kersch- baum, Kusterer, Porter, Sveda, Beckman, Kiddoo, KieFfer.

NINA BUCK a All who knew Mrs. Buck were so deeply impressed by her graciousness of manner and of living that any reference to her recalls vividly her charm and poise. Hers was a lifetime of service — to her family and to her community. Born in Flint, Michigan, she spent most of her life in Flint and Lansing, with extended residence also in New York, Florida, Louisiana, and California. In all these localities she was active in civic and church organizations, offering them unstintingly her ability and time. Michigan Staie Normal College knew her as head resident of Bertha Goodison Residence Hall, in a position which she held from th death April 1943.

HARRY THOMAS WOOD The Normal College recorded witV sadness thi passing of Pra essor Wood, April 18, 1943. He was serving in his 16th year as Assis ant Professor of Speech. His academic career included graduate trainfig in the unii Michigan, while as a teacher, he filled positions as high schc intendent, and college professor. He becalS a specialist in was a moving spirit in the organization and progress of the Michif and for some years its secretary-treasurer. Not only was he a scholarly teacher and anVndependent thinker but he gave freely of his time and energy to students. He was popular and successful in college forensics, where for 15 years he trained debaters and extempore speakers. As a member of the coast artillery, he saw overseas service in the First World War. We shall perhaps remember him best for the warm personal friendships which his kindly under- standing, his native humor,and his constant helpfulness fostered. They will linger long in the memory of the students he encouraged, and the colleagues with whom he worked on the faculty, and in the state and national associations. 5rsi ties of Wisconsin , Iowa, and speech teacher, principal, super- field of speech correction, and an Speech Correction Association, Re etirinq MISS LIZZIE TRABILCOX a Miss Lizzie Trabilcox, since 1923 Head of the Circulation Department of the College Library, resigned this year. Failing health made this necessary, much to the regret of her friends on the Fac- ulty, on the Library Staff,and among the student body. Miss Trabilcox is a native of Ypsilanti and graduate of the University of Michigan. For a number of years she had opened her large house on Hamilton Street to Normal students, and such prominent alumni as C. P. Steimle, Superintendents Arthur Erickson,of Ecorse, Geo. Smith of Plymouth, and others have made their homes there. She came to the Normal College as an assistant in the Library in 1920, and after 1923 her position as Head of the Circulation Department brought her in close personal contact with an unusually large num- ber of students. Her obvious gifts of mind and character and her unmistakable interest and liking for the young people whose lives she touched and in some way directed, brought her in return their respect and affection. Wherever and whenever a group of Normal alumni meet, Miss Trabilcox is sure to be spoken of with warmth and appreciation. Miss Trabilcox is a lady of the old school — a type which is regrettably disappearing in our too casual civilization. Her quiet charm of manner, the simplicity and unpretentiousness with which she exercises a considerable scholarship, an d an unexpected but very real sense of humor, make her an unusually interesting companion. 24 Aurabel Hosman Jean Campbell Jean Gillie Dorothy Rahm w. omen A The feminine element on campus being more or less predominant this year, the duties of the Women s League took on new and significant im- portance. Dorothy Rahm, the president who so capably kept the League a smooth-running, effec- tive organization, had her hands full with League events to attend to as well as the usual duties of a busy senior. Jean Campbell was chairman of the Advisory Board, a duty of her office of the vice-presidency. Jean Gillie handled the official business of the League as its secretary, and Aura- bel Hosman wielded the red and blue pencils in duties as treasurer. In a college such as Michigan Normal the pro- gram in war-time is inevitably unlike that of the peace-time college. In order to keep the campus well organized, an efficient governing body is a definite necessity. The answer the Women ' s League has given this demand has not only been adequate, but the program has given definite aid in a time of necessity. Every girl who has partici- pated in this program can well have a feeling of contributing materially to the war effort. In our war-time college the action of the representative body of our ' majority party has been a notable service in a time of need. X eaaue 9 ' Dorothy Rahm, president 26 The Women ' s League Exec- utive Board, being the organ- ization on campus that devotes itself entirely to determining the general policy of the League and to noting the opinions and general feeling of the feminine portion of the stu- dent body, naturally has an important task in anyone s opinion. The Executive Board consists of two parts. The first part is made up of the chairmen of the various committees, working in the dif- ferent phases of campus life. The other part consists of girls known as Members-at-large, who work with the committee chairmen to ferret out the de- sires of the coeds and try to solve the always present prob- lems. Head of assemblies for the year was Marjorie Harcourt, who, with her committee, brought programs of high cur- rent interest to the student body. Head of the Campus Sister organization was Betty Hayes, whose committee took charge of new students, see- ing that they were properly introduced to campus life. Betty Everett was in charge of clubs and produced the Service Pro- gram instead of the usual duties of Euthalia, Goldfeather, and Book-a-Month. Bettilou Roth handled constitutional prob- lems, and Geraldine Reming- ton superintended elections. FacultyChats, which were held at intervals throughout the year were under the direction of Olga Dorics. Marion Coward supervised the necessary pub- licity, and Eunice Willis was in charge of art. The Service Committee was under the di- rection of B etty Cahill, the Social Committee under Vir- ginia Schnell, and Student Ad- visers ' Betty Strieter. Joan Schrepper represented local girls; Carolene Jones, King girls,- and Cheryl Steiner, Goodison girls. Members-at- large were Barbara Holland, Mildred Mack, Emily Travis, and Mary Hemingway. cU-ectaue Executive ( J oard 9 Back Row: Hazelaar, Strieter, Jones, Schnell, Remington, Coward, Schrepper.

To cope with the inevitable infractions of regu- lations, the Women ' s League Advisory Board was formed and is now functioning. Headed by Vice-President of the Women ' s League, Jean Campbell, the Advisory Board consists of girls elected by women students in the spring of 1943: Lois Chalmers, Margaret Gelow, Jeane Reid, Susan Stephan, Jean Bailes, June Kellner, and Jean Pringnitz. At Wednesday evening meetings, beginning at 7:30, the Board listens to alibis and excuses with an impartial and judicial ear and gives the one-minute later , as well as the more serious violators of the rules, their just punishment. Punishment, however, is not the aim of the Advisory Board. Its aim is to keep the girls reminded that they must obey the rules set up in this institution of democracy as well as in any others they will discover later. The Advisory Board is consulted about pro- posed changes in the rules and regulations, which are made by the Executive Board. Mem- bers of the women ' s dormitory committee meet with the board at the beginning of the year to discuss the jurisdiction of each so that no confusion can arise. Although the note announcing an appoint- ment for a Wednesday evening meeting with the Advisory Board does not exactly tend to- ward calm spirits, and the Friday trip to Dean Hill ' s office for the verdict following the meet- ing may seem like walking the plank, a general agreement exists among the girls that their problems are dealt with fairly. They realize that the Advisory Board is definitely necessary on any college campus. The spirit with which the Advisory Board tends to its grim duties and that of the girls toward this enforcer of their routine represents the ideas that make our democracy a success. 28 eJLe eaciiie 9 cJLeads When the war is won and everyone is rejoicing, we of Michigan State Normal Col- lege will rightfully feel we were in part responsible for the victory, for didn ' t we have a Women ' s League Service Program? The Service Program was the most timely thing on campus this year, and was provided for by an equally timely and mod- ern-minded League guided by Dean Hill. Betty Everett was chairman of the activities, and helping her in the administra- tion were Janet Copp, com- munity houses and Rackham School,- Betty Parsons, Red Cross; Doris Park, nursery school; and Betty Osgood, cler- ical work. At the beginning of the second semester an office as the League Service head- quarters was opened in McKenny Hall. A high percentage of girls donated their leisure time, which showed they realized the importance of the work they were doing. Girls were busy rolling bandages at the Red Cross rooms in the base- ment of Welch Hall. Girls were seen knitting everything from the elementary Red Cross squares to khaki colored sweaters. Girls spent hours as social workers in Carver and Gilbert community houses or Woodruff nursery school. Girls assisted in the laboratory school doing everything from prepar- ing Kenney treatments to serv- ing as Girl Scout leader. These girls formed the League behind the man behind the gun. The entire service program was dedicated toward worth- while results and stressed the value of cultural interests as well as material contributions. Through the League tickets were made available to upper classwomen at reduced prices for plays and concerts and out- standing books were purchased by the League to be read by all. Everybody was doing it. Administrators open office. Gilbert House gets new book shelves. 29 Bex Arthur C. Greig Pretty TUn ' sU mon All of the boys on campus automatically belong to the Men s Union, which functions as a legislative head of the mascu- line portion of the student body. The Men ' s Executive Board, under the Men ' s Union, acts as the jurisdictional branch of the Union. This year, with the great reduction in the number of men on campus, the Men ' s Union has functioned under great disadvantage. The effort to keep the organization running and functioning, as continually a benefit to the campus as a whole, as in past years, has been a difficult and arduous task, but has brought about a cooperation among the mem- bers of the Union both in the organization and with other organizations on campus that has not been equalled in many years. Charles Greig has been the man who has wielded the mighty gavel in his office of president. Also Chuck was acting chairman of the Executive Board and ex-officio mem- ber of all committees of the Men ' s Union. Jerry Arthur acted in the capacity of vice-president. Don Pretty has superin- tended over the pen and ink in his office as secretary, and Kenneth Bex watched over the financial status of the Union until he became a Navy man in January. Charles Greig, president 30 u mon C xecutlve (7 oard The Men ' s Union Executive Board is the only standing committee in the Men ' s Union and its sole purpose is to keep a watchful eye on the machinery that keeps the Men ' s Union in func- tion. Class representatives to the Executive Board members were listed as: William Cogar, seniors,- James Aldridge, juniors,- Marvil Wolf, sophomores,- Richard Gabriel, freshmen. The only change oc- curred when William Cogar left school after Christmas to join the Army. No man was chosen to fill this vacancy on the board. The year 1943 opened at Michigan Normal with prospects of a vigorous year dimmed by clouds of war. When registration had finished and noses were counted, the men amassed to a total of fifty. Talk of discontinuing the Men ' s Union was prevalent, but in spite of the grim outlook for the future, the men banded together in an unusually successful and as active a body as circumstances would permit. Dean James M. Bingo ' ' Brown ' s guiding hand put things under motion and the organization took shape. The first act of the Men ' s Union was the pep talk to the freshmen in which the warning that all freshmen wear green pots from Monday morning until six o ' clock Saturday night was issued and emphasized. Of course there were a few that did not heed the warning and conse- quently Swing Sessions were held every Thurs- day night at 7:30. The regular Pep Rally was sponsored by the Men ' s Union and was made up largely of local talent. It gave evidence that there was plenty of school spirit existent in spite of the smaller numbers of the enrollment. Professor Haydn Morgan, director of the Con- servatory of Music, organized and directed the management of the first Men ' s Choir on campus in many years. Cooperation was good and the choir was successful. For the first time in many years the boys were presented in the annual Christmas Sing. The Men ' s Union cooperated with the Social Committee and the Women ' s League in their all- out effort to offer activities for the A.S.T.P. boys during their spare moments. The year ' s program would not have been com- plete without the comedian-alumnus, Gus Howard, who was featured in a Men ' s Union meeting early in the spring. In spite of handicaps, the Men ' s Union was a helpful part of the war-time campus. Activities of this war-time Men ' s Union would not be completely stated without mention of Dean Brown. His absence, because of illness was severely noticed in all branches of activities. Gabriel Wolf Aldridge Cogar 31 Un ion UlnuSuat Boldly meeting the war-time sit- uation of thirteen girls to a man, Michigan Normal males decided that it was the patriotic duty of the existing Men ' s Union to face the problems, the girls included, of a college in a turmoil like men. From underneath their small green chapeaus the freshmen viewed with wonder the campus and the surrounding landscape. Ably assisting them in this conven- tional duty were the MUG s who, in spite of their deficiency in num- bers, were far f rom lacking in spirit. Although the Class Games were of necessity discontinued, the Swing Sessions were con- tinued with ali their original zest and gusto. The small green frosh soon began to realize how great the power behind the paddle was and how serious was their venture into college. The annual Pep Assembly, fre- quent meetings, whether official or otherwise, constant schedules to meet and standards to uphold, managed to keep everyone busy. As the months rolled on the fifty became somewhat more de- pleted as others joined the armed forces. All in all, however, the year could hardly be classed as a fail- ure. Less active than in previous years, the Union had still man- aged to retain its characteristic good fellowship through informal card games and stag sessions at McKenny and in its members de- veloped a Michigan Normal school spirit.

With military restrictions and strict hours to deal with, a social program was needed that would meet the approval of the students and definitely include the men of the A.S.T.P. With ever-changing schedules to cope with the Committee found the demand for spur-of-the-moment activities very much in evidence. Acting in the capacity of Social Director, Dean Susan Hill somehow managed to tuck the supervision of the weekly meetings into her already full schedule, and also to meet the changing scene with a tolerant and help- ful eye. Eleanor Young was the student chair- man for the year, and her committee consisted of Jeane Reid, Gertrude Menzi, Susan Eckley, and Mary Steimle, whose resignation at the end of the first semester left vacancy that was filled by Barbra Holland, representing the Women ' s Athletic Association. Perhaps the most outstanding party of the year which was sponsored by the All-College Social Committee was the Christmas Party which, as in previous years, started the Christmas season off with a gala atmosphere. This party ottitnuiee also inaugurated the dining room of Charles McKenny Hall for dancing, with Bob Millane supplying the music. As well as dancing there were games of all sorts and skills distributed through the room, fortune tellers who gazed in tea cups, artists who sketched anyone willing to sit still, music for listening and a huge Christ- mas tree for those who preferred a quieter atmosphere, refreshments, and almost anything for which one could wish. The weekly Kresge dance of past years gave way to a new tradition, that of the Coke Dance which was held in the Men ' s Lounge at Charles McKenny Hall on Wednesday even- ing from 6:30 to 7:30. Student hostesses supervised these dances. The ten cent fee charged furnished the cash that kept the Juke Box in operation. Besides these traditional events there were several splash parties, held in the Roosevelt Pool, with informal dances in the Men s Lounge at McKenny afterwards; Sports Nights which were sponsored by the W.A.A., several informal parties with dancing in the McKenny Hall dining room, and at every interval when nothing special was going on, At Homes, which were informal dances, were held in the Men ' s Lounge. 33 Within its walls the Library contains the printed wisdom of the centuries. It is here the students who compose the four class groups spend a large portion of their time in preparation for classes and a search for truth. To all who have attended M.S.N.C. the Library has served as an instrument for the acquisition of knowledge. It is a concrete symbol of their academic achievement. 34 if -T . £ - £-A. .-fa 6 L ? 4 rT- ' !2 jC s f-0-CsLS 3t oractice teaching. Off to classes.

Students reach into the huddle and from the pile on the chair pull their four-page copy of the paper, at the same time glancing grudgingly at the One paper only sign posted above the stack. In the office Editor Betty Hayden crosses another issue off her list and begins making staff assignments, as Business Manager Aurabel Hosman starts her solicitors on their beats securing advertise- ments for the next paper. Betty Hayden directed her staff successfully to publish a paper full of the life at M.S. NO. It contained the usual run of usual and unusual news write-ups as well as thought provoking editorials, features, and the traditional Grief and Gossip column. This year saw wartime changes in the paper- First among these was bi-weekly publication instead of weekly publication as in previous years. It was the difficult task of the editor to make an interesting and complete news coverage of the time between issues. A second change was the addition of feature and news columns contributed by men of Com- pany H, which gave an A.S.T.P. atmosphere to the news sheet. A third change was the column compiled by Miss Sill of the geography de- partment presenting to the students briefs on world news. Pride in the paper was evident among stu- dents as they saved the copies, clipped articles from them or sent them to friends. Former Hurons eagerly read the NORMAL NEWS when they received it in Uncle Sam ' s camps all over the world. EDITORIAL STAFF Editor .

Mary Alice Lyngklip, Business Manager. This is it — your record of Michigan Normal for the year 1943-1944. Work on it began during the summer months when Editor Janet Mitchell began to acquaint herself with the problems of type, engravings, and covers, and to construct the layout dummies. During the opening days of school, Business Manager Mary Alice Lyngklip and her staff began func- tioning by contracting with the students to have new pictures made or to buy reprints. Work continued in the busy office in Pierce Hall. Copy assignments were made to the editorial staff. Club members and faculty posed for their group pictures. Ann Hood cleverly photographed the campus events, and Kitty Evans designed the cover. Photographic and art work was sent to the engraving company. Copy was written, read, rewritten and reread before it was prepared for the printer. Dr. McKay served as the ever ready adviser on the problems of year book production to Mitch and M.A. It is a wartime annual. The decrease in college enrollment necessitated fewer pages and slight changes in content. It is without the usual spread of men ' s athletics. Paper in the book is a lighter weight, and the cover is thinner than in the Aurora ' s of other years. Earlier deadlines to be met caused a shorter working period for staff members, who con- about coming to type tonight? When will the pictures be ready? and The book has got to come out on ume. And the staff produced to give you the 52nd Aurora of Michigan State Normal College, this is the example of the spirit of service pre- vailing on the campus in 44.

BETTY HAYDEN MARJORIE HARCOURT BARBRA HOLLAND LEORA LEWERENZ President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer (,o Pi Kappa Delta is a national honor for- ensic society now represented in 169 collegesfromMaineand Florida in the east to Washington and California in the west. It originated at Ottawa University, Kansas and Ripon College, Wisconsin in 1913. It has some 19,000 members. Its purpose is to stimulate progress in, and to pro- mote the interests of intercollegiate ora- tory, debate and public speaking by en- couraging a spirit of intercollegiate fellowship, brotherly cooperation and interest, and by conferring upon deserving candidates a badge of distinction, pro- ficiency and honor, varied and graduated according to merit and achievement. The Michigan Epsilon chapter on our campus was installed, June 10, 1921. It now has nearly 300 alumni members. Only those students whose platform proficiency is such that they are chosen to participate in intercoliege debates, oratory or extem- poraneous speaking are admitted to mem- bership. During the piping days of peace, its season ' s schedule carried general ora- tory, peace orctory, extempore and round- table speaking, and in some years as many as 70 debates for men and 40 for women. All of these contests as well as those in freshman public speaking are carried on, in cooperation with the Speech Depart- ment faculty, under its auspices. Its cal- endar opens with a party in October and ' closes with an annual initiation and honors dinner in May. It may be added that the chapter endeavors to keep in touch with its numerous alumni members now in the armed forces. The chapter suffered a serious loss last year in the death of Professor Harry T. Wood, who left us on April 18th. He was associate patron for ten years, a scholarly teacher, a friendof students, and beloved by chapter members. The membership includes, in addition to the officers, Louise Myers, senior, three faculty graduate members, five honorary members, and the Speech Department fac- ulty. Dr. Frederick B. McKay has been the faculty sponsor since the chapter was in- stalled.

Front Row:Holland, Schrepper, Harcourt, Meyers, Lewerenz. This year the men ' s squad and the women s squad were combined to form a mixed debate team coached by Dr. Joseph Kelly. This combina- tion was possible because the Michigan Inter- collegiate Speech League allowed men and women to compete together in its tournament. Members of the Michigan Normal squad were Robert Hudgins, Leora Lewerenz, Joyce Riehl- Barbra Holland, and Joan Schrepper. These people represented the college in the tourna- ment held at Michigan State College at East Lansing on February 19th as well as further de- bate activities held during the spring. A debate proposition is chosen each year for all colleges which have chapters of Pi Kappa Delta, Tau Kappa Alpha, and Delta Sigma Rho by a committee representing those fraternities and the National Association of Teachers of Speech. The topic selected for the current year was: Resolved that the United States should cooperate with the other United Nations in establishing and operating an international police force upon the defeat of the Axis powers. In the tournament the Michigan Normal squad debated against squads of Michigan State, Hope, Calvin, Albion, Central Michigan, and Western Michigan colleges on this proposition. Those debaters qualifying for membership in Pi Kappa Delta were Joyce Riehl, and Robert Hudgins. 6S Lyra tord and S peah ve alter 5 In the spring of each year a home oratory contest is held at which the woman and man orator is chosen to represent Michigan Normal in intercollegiate contests the following year. Winners in the 1943 competition were Mar- jorie Harcourt and Marvin Wolf and runner-up Leora Lewerenz who was selected to serve as the woman ' s alternate. Due to the pressure of pre-medical studies, Marvin Wolf was unabie to act as the college orator, so Robert Hudgins was chosen to fill this position. The two orators participated in the Michigan Inter- collegiate Speech League Contest in Oratory held at Michigan State College on March 10th. The title of Marjone Harcourt ' s oration was So Youth May Know ' ' and that of Robert Hudgins was This Day . Freshman contests in poetry reading and public speaking were held both semesters- Winners in the fall were Marjorie Jacka and Duane McKeachie in the poetry division and Ann Hubbell and Wayne VanDerwill in the public speaking division. The campus Interpretative Reading Contest was held April 4th in McKenny Hall. This was opened by an introduction given by Marjorie Harcourt who paid tribute to former Michigan Normal men and women readers now in the armed forces. Joan Schrepper and Pauline Fisher were the contestants in the poetry division. Joan Schrepper was selected to represent the college in the twelfth annual State Interpretative Reading Contest at Albion on May 5th. In the local contest she read Steel by Joseph Auslander and Politics by Yeats. A New Heaven by John Gould Fletcher and Three Kisses by Elizabeth Bar- rett Browning were read by Pauline Fisher. Betty Hayden and Pauline Fisher participated in the local meeting as prose readers.

Witherspoon Marvin Wolf The Stoic Society is an honor society founded in 1909, existing for over thirty years without set by-laws or a constitution, but carried on by the tradition and soirit of its patron, ad- visers, and members. The unexcelled leader- ship of J. Stuart Lathers, the founder and patron, supported by the enthusiastic cooperation and loyalty of the membership has earned for the Stoic society an esteemed position among the campus institutions. Its purpose is to recognize and distinguish high standards of scholarship and conduct, and election to membership is based on these qualities together with initiative and general helpfulness in campus activities. Faculty, alumni, and friends by their generous contributions and gifts have helped in the establishment of three Scholarship Endowment Funds honoring Stoics and other students who have distinguished themselves in the process of their education. The income from these funds is annually awarded to worthy Stoics. The re- cipients of the scholarship awards for the present year were: Olga Dorics, Shirley Oat- men, and Lucille Kuhn. Olga Dorics was this year ' s President; Shirley Oatmen, Secretary,- and Lucille Kuhn, Treasurer. Always the biggest event on the Stoic calendar is the banquet for new members. On March 25th the new Stoics received their pins, and this year ' s officers were presented with their scholarshios. 70 J appu e DellCL J I Back Row: John, Dorics, Mitchell, Rahm, Mack, Kennedy, Gregory, Van Nest, Block.

In the fall, Kadelphians were glad to hear that Michigan Normal was to have a football team. That gave them a chance to carry on their money-making scheme of selling apples, popcorn, and peanuts at the game. The mem- bers took time off one Saturday afternoon to go to the orchards and pick the apples they sold. You didn ' t know those staunch Kadel- pians could don slacks and have a good time doing hard work, did you? The Alums ' in service were remembered at Christmas. Actives still remember the night they wrote greetings while eating popcorn around the table in Starkweather Hall. Of course you heard about the Christmas party at Dr. Lindquist ' s with a tree, gifts for everyone, games and refreshments. After Christmas, plans were begun for the spring activities including the March meeting at which school superintendents interviewed senior members, and the annual Honors Tea for freshmen and sophomores with high scholastic averages. The climax of the year was the Spring Banquet at which neophytes received the well- known scroll and beehive. 7 : . . 4 ? r J .■ d i. ' 4 rs w . .

Acting as director for the third year, Haydn Morgan successfully formed an all girl choir from those who were vocally talented. Hard work in singing exer- cises and learning parts mcde it possible for the group to contribute to programs throughout the year. On December 9, it presented the Annual Christmas Concert with Marilynn Sternberg and Mcrian Capron as piano ac- companists. Traditional Christmas classics were sung. As guest groups Lincoln and Roosevelt High School Choirs appeared on the program. During the season the choir sang for the Willow Run Religious Organizations Christmas pro- gram. On Palm Sunday, April 2, the girls sang with the orchestra in the annual concert. Another annual event, the Spring Concert, followed on May 11. The choir was active at graduation time when it participated in the Senior Day program on May 23, the Bac- laureate services on June 4, and the Gradua- tion Day Ceremonies on June 10 72 VOCAL GROUPS Freshmen-Sophomore Girls ' Vocal Ensemble. Men ' s Quartet Junior-Senior Girls ' Vocal Ensemble. This year Mr. Morgan directed two girls ' vocal ensembles and a men ' s quartet. These girls and men were those who had especial rrrjsical ability and as a result of this talent and practice there were three fine vocal groups. The girls sang for college and community functions during the yecr. Members of the Freshmen-Sophomore Girls ' Vocal Ensemble were: Marion Capron, Mary Edgar, Valerie Edwards, Winifred Netcher, Mil- dred Odgers, Loree Presnell, Gwen Price, Vir- ginia Smith, Jean Willis, and Margaret Zick. Men singing in the Male Quartet were Merton Dillon, Duane McKeachie, Clark Spike, and Wayne Members of the glee club were Hugh Ableson, Jim Aldridge. John Celestin, Bill Cogar, Merton Dillon, Dick Gabriel, Dick Ge Elliot Horton, Leonard Logan, Duane McKeachie, Lamarr Miller, Wayne VanDerwill, Marvin Wolf. VanDerwill. Girls of the Junior-Senior Girls ' Vocal Ensemble were Betty Calsen, Marie Car- rington, Verla Cook, Jean DeVerna, Madeleine Fallahee, Betty Giles, DollyeMcGary and Marilynn Sternberg. In spite of small enrollment Mr. Morgan and the men were able to form a well-balanced Men ' s Glee Club. This is one of the organiza- tions that indicated the spirit Michigan Normal males possessed as nearly one hundred percent of the men were members of the glee club. The club sang for the All College Christmas Sing, and those members yet on campus appeared with the choir in the Palm Sunday Concert.

A very important academic man made the state- ment recently that if he had his life to live over again, one thing he would certainly do would be to learn to play a musical instrument, for he said he was convinced that it would be beneficial to mental health. He felt that to master an instru- ment (instead of it mastering you) would be one of the best ways to defeat habits of timidity and convictions of inadequacy. It would train his mind during that all-important adolescent period when most anything is possible when the child ' s mind is not fixated on a definite goal. To this interesting statement could be added the opinion that nothing contributes more directly to the de- velopment of the group ideal than does playing in an orchestra. One cannot have his own way in such a musical organization. The slightest dis- cord is all too evident to the listener. Utmost group co-operation is demanded for the good of the total project. The group interest is preserved by the necessity of pulling together. We know that children learn largely from observation and imitation, by response to pleasing episodes, by instruction, and by obedience to command. An orchestra, then, is a good educational influence upon the developing minds in the musical group. America has become conscious of its music. The future of our music depends principally upon the interest taken by amateur musicians. Harold Bauer is credited with saying recently, The amateur is more imporcant than the master musi- cian. Marius Fossenkemper has always had an idealistic attitude in aiding younger players to enjoy the playing of great orchestral literature as he himself has so greatly enjoyed it. To interest and inspire the younger generation of Americans in the development of musical art and culture is a privilege, for the future of music is illimitable as an integral factor in the cultural and practical life of America.

Pan-Hellenic Council, made up of three representatives from each sorority on campus, is captained this year by Geraldine Remington of Sigma Nu Phi. Other officers are Julia Edgar, Corresponding Secretary,- Rose Kellner, Recording Sec- retary; Margaret Gelow, Treasurer. Dean Susan B. Hill is Advisor. This group has under its jurisdiction all weighted decisions concerning the most vital of sorority functions. They sponsor the Educational Hour held the week before each rushing season. At the Pan-Hellenic Educational Hour held in February Helen Rahm, freshman, was presented the Association of Educational Sororities scholarship. Michigan State Normal College feels honored to have been chosen as the first campus to receive the award. The award was based first on scholarship and second on leader- ship. Along with other campus organizations, Pan-Hellenic Council carried on through the year a program designed to help stabilize the campus and contribute to defense during this period of world war. Much of the efforts of the organi. zation was put into Red Cross work. Through Pan-Hellenic, a contest was held to see which sorority could contribute the most six inch squares for Red Cross afghans.

What member will forget that 7:00 A. M. Christmas Sing practice? Along with the purchasing of war bonds in the name of the chapter the members made monthly salvage collections of materials to be used in government hospitals for occupational therapy. Between salvage drives and at meetings, time was found to make two knitted RedCross afghans and prepare surgical dressings. Eta girls were active in the Women ' s League service program contrib- uting their time and talents to the community houses, training schools, and girl scouting. Nationally Delta Sigs were prominent in spon- soring drives for the government rehabilitation centers, the purchasing of war bonds for the sorority and Seeing-eye Dogs for war veterans, and financial aid to social agencies. It has been a year of accomplishments for members of Delta Sigma Epsilon. 86 DOROTHY VAN NEST JEAN GILLIE . DOROTHY MIL LER ETHEL PINK .

Szlanta r lu J hi Like all other campus groups, Sigma Nu ' s main interest during the year centered on war services and activities. Members, while maintaining an active participation in sorority events, at the same time kept pace with Red Cross and other college war activities, which included knitting squares for afghans, contributing to the Red Cross Blood Bank, and taking instruction in first aid, home nursing, motor mechanics, and other Red Cross and Civilian Defense classes. Interests of some turned to nurses ' aide work, while others were engaged in USO activities, sewing, or rolling bandcges. Strictly sorority activities in- cluded the two rushing seasons in October, and again in March, informal closed sorority parties throughout the year, and gatherings with alumnae groups. Both the organization ' s war work and sorority functions were accomplished under the direction of a capable group of officers, the patroness, Mrs. E. J. Rynearson, and Miss Augusta Harris, faculty advisor. 88 ALPHA CHAPTER OFFICERS MARiAN GEORGE GLADYS LIDGEY MARGARET KELLY ESTHER SENFF BARBARA ROGERS President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer Publicity FACULTY ADVISOR Miss Augusta Harris PATRONESS Mrs. E.

Members and pledges have taken an active part in Red Cross Work — knitting squares, making surgi- cal dressings, and donating blood to the Blood Bank. Even hell week duties became more timely as pledges performed constructive Red Cross work. Omicron chapter was able to purchase five one-hundred dollar war bonds in the fall and added another to its savings in June. The social service fund of the chapter was spent in aiding community centers, Gilbert House and Carver Center, Danny O Leary in England, and students in South America. Funds from Omicron chapter have been used in nation-wide projects sponsored by the national organization of Sigma Sigma Sigma. 90 OMICRON CHAPTER OFFICERS CAROLINE MANN ....

Neither did they dis- pense with the well-known Post-Exam Jam in February. They also held the annual Mother ' s Day luncheon in May. But, what the sorority girls did do was to add many new activities to their busy schedules. They worked diligently at rolling bandages and knitting squares for the Red Cross. Millie Mack made her eighth trip to the Blood Bank besides spending much of her free time with Mouse Gelow making those big posters seen in the lobby of McKenny Hall. The Theta Lambda girls made up an active group in campus activities and war work retaining the Theta Lamb tradition. 92 UPSILON CHAPTER EDNA SIMON MILDRED MACK ELEANOR YOUNG LUCILLE KUHN .

This year few competitive contests were played, but the men have learned and practiced the rudiments of the sports on one of the finest athletic fields in Michigan. Adequate athletic facilities have helped both civilians and trainees to develop sportsman- ship and team play as well as to maintain their physical well-being. .

Coach Ray Stites. 9S Coach Elton Rynearson The fall of 1943 found that, al- though the men of Michigan Normal were greatly reduced in number, they were determined that the usual high- quality athletic teams would be pro- duced. With this thought in mind a football team was organized. None of the returning players had been a regular the year before, but soon patience and hard work on the part of both Coach Rynearson and the team began to show very promising results. The A.S.T.P. trainees on Campus were not permitted to play on the Normal team, but they gave loyal support to the Hurons and did play several scrim- mage contests against them. As soon as practice began, it was necessary to schedule some games. Here Normal was not very successful. Some schools did not have eleven foot- ball enthusiasts on campus, whereas transportation difficulties precluded the possibility of games with schools very far from Ypsilanti. As a result only two games were scheduled, both were with Wayne University in Detroit. The Hurons opened the season in the University of Detroit Stadium by trouncing the Wayne Tartars to the impressive tune of 1 4-0. Heads-up foot- ball brought the victory. The first scoring chance came with the recovery of a fumble on the Wayne 26-yard line by Burl Seldon, Huron right tackle. Bill Nuse crossed the goal line a few plays later. Don Wiseley, freshman end, provided Normal ' s next score when he intercepted a pass on his own 19-yard line and ran 81 yards for a touchdown. A safety accounted for the last two points. In the second contest the Hurons proved themselves to be a really good team by handing the Tartars another 14-0 defeat. Halfback Bill Nuse ran 45 yards for the first touchdown and passed 18 yards to quarterback Clare Ebersole for the next six points. Eber- sole converted after each touchdown. Michigan Normal thus ended the 1944 season unbeaten, untied, and unscored on. This impressive record at the end of the second season of war-time football should prove that despite diminished numbers, Michigan Normal ' s Indian is still a pretty tough customer.

Greig Miller Constant practice, good team work, and a fighting spirit were not enough to give the Mich- igan Normal cagers a successful year. Lack of reserve strength was one of the major factors contributing to their bad 1943-44 showing. In several contests, the Men of Normal led at the half time, only to tire and fall behind in the third and fourth quarters. The regular center, Clare Ebersole, left college early in January to enter the Navy. The team was also hindered by a lack of tall men. None of the regulars was over six feet. Despite these handicaps, the team carried on to the end, but was forced to close the season with the unimpressive record of 4 victories and 9 defeats. The beginning of the season was more profit- able than the end for the Stitesmen. They started the season in a big way by trimming Detroit Tech in a hotly contested game, 29-32, but lost the next two games to Kalamazoo Col- lege and The Romulus Air Base respectively. At this point the Hurons took the warpath and tomahawked the Army Induction Center of Detroit and Saint Mary ' s College in rapid suc- cession. Their winning average was not to last, however, for the Stitesmen were defeated by Fort Custer and the Grosse lie Naval Base in the next two games. The final win of the season was made at the expense of the Navy procure- ment team of Detroit. From the date of that game, the Normalites saw nothing but defeat. Two were administered by the University of Detroit and one each by Saint Mary ' s College and The Romulus Air Base. As in football, the A.S.T.P. members were not allowed to play on the Normal team. They did, however, organize a team of their own that played several practice contests against the Huron Cagers. The two outstanding players were Captain Charles Greig and his brother Tom. These two men led the Huron offense and were equally good defensive players. Bill Nuse, Clare Ebersole, Dick Gabriel, and LaMar Miller were the others who played regularly. The team- work was good, and it was through no lack of effort that they were not more successful. 100 STITESMEN ' S SCHEDULE AND SCORES November 24 Detroit Tech 29 M November 30 Kalamazoo College 44 M December 1 Romulus Air Base 52 M December 2 Army Induction Center of Detroit 30 M December 9 Saint Mary ' s College 38 M December 1 7 Fort Custer 50 M January 3 Grosse lie Naval Base 53 M January 6 Naval Officers Procurement of Detroit 16 M January 10 Saint Mary ' s College • 27 M January 13 University of Detroit 40 M January 20 Romulus Air Base 61 M January 28 University of Detroit 46 M chigan State Normal 32 chigan State Normal 38 chigan State Normal 48 chigan State Normal 42 chigan State Normal 42 chigan State Normal 31 chigan State Normal 35 chigan State Normal 57 chigan State Normal 17 chigan State Normal 32 chigan State Normal 40 chigan State Normal 11 Stites, Gabriel, Greig, C., Greig, T.

Board and its active program is Miss Batsche- let, the physical education department s newest faculty member. Her enthusi- asm and ideas have been largely re- sponsible for the success of the board ' s social and athletic undertakings. She came to us after doing graduate work at the University of Michigan. MARJORIE PIEPER Marge has had her finger in the W.A.A. pie for 4 years, and when she became Dresident this fall, she took over with a thorough knowledge of the pit- falls to avoid in the organization of an all-around activity program. Her suc- cess is shown by the great number of participants, particularly general stu- dents. MARY EILEEN DUCKLOW Early comers get to sit on the soft couch in the meeting room, and so Ducky wastes no time in hurrying over to the gym for those Thursday night meetings. She ' s the vice-president and does a great job on the various and sundry committees on which she works. EMILY TRAVIS Whenever that vague look comes over her face, it is known Toot will come forth with a flood of questions. She asks lots of them to keep her data in order, for she is the secretary and keeps a good record even though she has difficulty reading her own writing. JANET COOK Jan is more than willing to attend any meeting which doesn ' t interfere with her afternoon soda jerking at the Drug. As the recorder, she knows whether you came to the first hockey practice or made the all star basketball team. She even has time left over to dream up those clever sports posters. 102 Tucked away on the second floor of the gymnasium, there is a small room used as the meeting place for the board of the Women ' s Athletic Assoc- iation. It is here that most of the cam- pus recreational activities are planned. One of the main functions of this board is that of managing the various women ' s sports of the campus. They have worked especially hard to en- courage the general student partici- pation in these activities, which re- placed the misinterpreted idea that only Physical Education majors belong to the Women ' s Athletic Association. Another outstanding contribution centers around the All Sports Night to which the entire campus was invited. This offered an opportunity for the stu- dents to have the gymnasium, pool, and equipment at their disposal. Soldiers and civilians alike spent the evening displaying their ability to do everything from jack-knife dives to Chinese Checkers. The women ' s Athletic Association also has cooperated with the Women s League in sponsoring parties for the women of the campus. First among these events was the party in honor of frosh girls, and a strictly upper class event was a variety party in January. Spring found the two organizations working to produce the biggest all- women feature of the year, The Co-ed Cabana ' ' — purely beach style with faculty members stealing the show. Spring Camp was definitely W.A.A. fun. After budgeting gas, food stamps. and time, a week-end was spent in the wilds of Dexter territory with Miss Boughner supervising the cooking. The final project of the year the board sponsors is the Women ' s Ath- letic Association banquet, which takes place in late spring. At this time, letters and pins are awarded to those who have been outstanding partici- pants during the school year. It is also the occasion for newly elected officers to be installed. ( J oard HELEN GALEKOVICH Silence is golden to Galek. She didn ' t say very much, and that pensive look on her face may have meant her thoughts were far away on that army flier — but regardless, she could be counted on to come up with a suggestion when it was most needed. GERALDINE REMINGTON The chatter subsidies, the meeting begins-the door bursts open and in comes Gerry on the run. Even though that job in the Union overlaps a little, she never fails to appear and add her ideas to the project under discussion. VIRGINIA DOWNING Ginny always had plenty to do, but with a little per- suasion, she ' d accept the responsibility for just one more committee or sport. She spent her fall afternoons taking care of the hockey schedule. Her only fault is that she went off teaching in February and left us without our jester. MARY IRENE BELL A town girl with more prestige than the rest of us at the local ration board, Mary Irene was indispensable in getting food points for our camping expedition. Her other efforts were concentrated on recruiting swimmers for Naiades. BARBRA HOLLAND Barb has lots of enthusiasm and when she applies it to stirring up interest in W.A.A. activities, she usually gets good results. She can be depended on, too, to provide entertainment, especially when a song leader is in demand. HAZEL HARDING Was it a physical education major who started that rumor about Early El ' s not knowing the difference between a soccer ball and a tennir racket? Pete certainly disproved this theory when she performed the badminton manager ' s duties like a veteran. BETTY VAN NEST Van is the eager beaver on the board, because she ' s always willing to do a good job on anything at all. Not only did she manage the soccer season, but she also took part in every sport as it came along. JEAN GILLIE Leaving the dormitory at 7:29 for a 7:30 meeting, Jean strolls nonchalantly into the office at 7:31. With her apol- ogetic look, her 100-dollar smile, and a wink of one big brown eye, she takes a seat and enters into the spirit of the Thursday night meeting. AGNES HANSEN ' Gosh I ' m awfully busy, but I ' ll try, she always says, and she always comes through. That ' s why we wanted Aggie to be general chairman of our annual banquet — just to be sure we ' d have our traditionally elegant dinner. BETTY SMURTHWAITE In spite of the attractiveness of one particular part of the army, Smurth reserves Thursday nights for board meetings. She did an especially fine job of managing the volleyball season. 103 W..J.-J. BADMINTON Many of our W.A.A. participants are ardent fans of one of the nation ' s fav- orite sports — badminton. For an hour once a week the girls meet as a club, play with whomever they choose, and learn the intricacies of the game. From the sidelines it looks like a simple sort of sport, but we need only to witness the limping players the next day to realize that stretching and stooping and chasing the little white bird does strange things to many muscles in many places. BASKETBALL As always, our queen sport, basket- ball, had its faithful following of noisy and enthusiastic fans. The door to door canvas in the dorms turned up latent talent which soon blossomed into expert performance on the courts — and contributed to a basketball tourna- ment which included torn ligaments, floor burns, and broken fingernails, as well as eye-opening playing. VOLLEYBALL The volleyball manager delved deep into her imagination and came up with a plan which brought forth the great- est number of players and the highest pitch of enthusiasm witnessed on our courts in several years. Teams were organized in the dormitories according to corridors, and the natural rivalry reached its peak in the semi-weekly contests. The town girls formed a formidable team which battled through the tournament and emerged winner, leaving Goodison Third Main and King First East as runners-up. 104 W.-J..J. HOCKEY When the girls get back to school in the fall, the first articles pulled from the equipment room are hockey sticks, balls, and shin guards. From then until Thanksgiving, legs and lungs are exer- cised while the players run around the f ' eld. The highlight of the season was the game in which an Ail-Star team representing M.S.N.C. played against a team from the University of Michigan and defeated them 3-2. SWIMMING We have seen them straggling back to the dorm with water in their ears, in their noses, and with their hair drip- ping onto their collars — And at the same time we have heard them making plans to come back for more. What could it be that tempts the girls to give up their Saturday morning sleep and their Tuesday evening libe appoint- ments? It could be they like to swim, they want to streamline their figures, or they want to perfect their strokes to become members of Naiades. FENCING An ancient sport made a comeback on campus this winter when Miss Batschelet organized a club and under- took to teach the rudiments of fencing. Groans and lame muscles predominated for a while, but it was not long before the girls were thrusting, retreating, and lunging like experienced foilsmen. They did look wierd in their white padded jackets and in the wire masks which completely hid their faces, but they were well protected in the duels which took place in their private room on the second floor of the gym. 105 W.-J.-J. CAMPING The Women ' s Athletic Association Camp is always the highlight of the college year. Bag, baggage, and blanket rolls the girls pile into a bus on a Saturday morning and start off for a week-end of continuous fun. They wear outfits befitting any backwoods- man, and in the wide open spaces they play team games, run off track events, hike, and swim. They dance in the lodge, and sing around the campfire and eat Chef Boughner ' s food anytime and anywhere. ARCHERY Even Dan Cupid would cock his head and blink his eyes if he could see Michigan Normal ' s lovely lassies out on the athletic field stringing their bows and taking careful aim. No, they don ' t shoot the track men,- their arrows are aimed at the insignificant bulls-eyes of the red, white, and blue targets. To hit it requires concentrated efforts on the correct kink in the elbow, that certain elevation of the chin, and a tremendous pull of the biceps as well as perseverance. SOCCER The freshman gym classes and ener- getic upperclassmen make up the throng gathered at the soccer playing field in the iate afternoons of the fall. Here they exercise faithfully and strenuously to take the kinks out of their muscles and build up their endurance. The beginners learn the fundamentals from the student teachers while the old hands brush up on their dribbling and place kicking. This year teams were organized and a tournament was played. W.-J.-J. GOLF Deep down the dark interior of the equipment room are the golf clubs — everything from drivers to putters and, what ' s more important in these days of limited rubber, golf balls! This material doesn ' t stay there, though, for in early spring the golfers are off to the fairways, and from then on their conversation is an unintelligible collec- tion of pars, birdies, and slices. He m m p . _ . - - _«■ TENNIS While snowflakes are still falling, the tennis aspirants earnestly bat tennis balls against the walls, the windows, and even the balconies in the gym trying to develop some semblance of a Budge-like backhand so they can take to the courts in good form as soon as the spring rains disappear. Nylon strings may be a thing of the past and perhaps those synthetic rubber balls don ' t bounce the way we would like to have them, but until warm days and enthusiasm are rationed, tennis will continue to be one of the most popular spring-time sports. f SOFTBALL In spring a young man s fancy — and at Michigan Normal a young woman s fancy turns to the great outdoors. So it is that the coeds don their shorts and migrate to the softball diamond. Prac- tice makes perfect even in softball, so the girls spend considerable time learn- ing rules and techniques. When they know three strikes means yer out! , and when they can bat the ball into the outfield, they organize teams and carry on highly spirited games. 107 Filling the vacancies made by Michigan Normal men as they left to become members of the armed forces, approximately three hundred A.S.T.P. men moved in to their Ypsilanti barracks, John M. Munson Residence Hall. Former college home of hundreds of M.S.N.C. men now in uniform and present army home of the A.S.T.P. men stationed on this campus, Munson Hall reflects a wartime military atmosphere. 108 M I LITARY Jsn the S t Abfalter, Paul Allard, Franklin E.

GL Wen Michigan State Normal College has wit- nessed four wars since its establishment in 1849. In each of these wars Normal men have been called from their school and homes to serve their country in its time of need. Although it is a small school the numbers of former Hurons en- gaging in the present world conflict in the var- ious branches of service may be counted into the thousands. They are those experiencing the blood, sweat and tears — some of them have made the supreme sacrifice, that of their lives for their country — in order to preserve and maintain the essence of freedom and de- mocracy of the United States. In World War II men and women students alike have enlisted in the military services in an effort to do their duty to their country. Other students yet on campus will soon be in uniform contributing to the cause. Until their time comes they are remaining in school gaining knowledge that will better fit them for the work ahead. Students are not alone in repre- senting Michigan State Normal College as 20 members of the faculty are aiding Uncle Sam in uniforms. Those not in uniform are serving through instructing the A.S.T.P. and the civilian students. We are at war,- of all these men faculty, students, and alumni, Michigan State Normal College is justly proud. Men who are now clad in khaki or blue in- stead of the green and white of Hurons are found in Asia, Australia, Europe, South America, Africa, the Atlantic, the Pacific, and every state in the Union. Contact with Michigan State Normal College is made through letters and issues of the NORMAL NEWS sent to them by fellow students. An attempt has been made by the administrative officers of the col- lege and the AURORA to compile a complete file of men in service as a college record. Our men are fighting men. It is upon them, and men like them, the officers to the buck priv- ates, the lauded heroes to the unknown soldiers, those serving in the navy, the marines, the army, the air corps, and merchant marines, that the preservation of our four freedoms, the American way of living, depends. They will win our peace on the battlefield and will become leaders in the field of post war reconstruction. We salute you fighting men of Michigan Nor- mal. . ' 113 s rrmu Specialized y HP The administration of an Army Special- ized Training Unit is conducted differently from any other type of division of the armed forces. Its table of organization provides for a commanding officer of each unit and such other personnel as is nec- essary. An exact number of commis- sioned and non-commissioned officers is not stated, neither is the rank nor specific duties of these men mentioned. In many cases an A.S.T.P. group may have more men than another type of company. It is obviously difficult for two or three men to control such a large body of soldiers and as a result strict discipline is enforced. Other reasons for such reg- ulations are to keep the men reminded of the fact that they are army men and to represent to the public the fine discipline found in the ranks. A unit of troops in college must be able to withstand com- parison to other troops. Captain Charles Wetherbee Marching to class. J)MAK ' 114 D. rain in a p. roaram ' 9 It is evident that the commanding officers of an A.S.T.P. Unit has many problems to consider. He must decide upon the most effective regulations for those under his command and carry out multiple other duties besides making every effort to keep public opinion in his favor. As the com- manding officer of Company H, Captain Charles Wetherbee and his assistant, Lieu- tenant Frank Labiaux, have exercised tact and judgment in meeting the require- ments of their post. They have conducted their group ' s physical welfare and such necessary army training as prescribed by the directors of the program. Their co- operation with President Munson and Dean of Administration, Egbert R. Isbell, has resulted in an effective organization of academic instruction for the army men at Michigan State Normal College. % Sunday night retreat. Lieutenant Frank Labiaux. 115 rrmu Specialized V HP fU | ' September of 1943 found the first, second, and third floors of Munson Hall serving as a barracks for approximately 300 Army Specialized Training Program men. These men had been selected from army camps throughout the United States to form Company H of the 3651st Unit of the A.S.T.P. at Michigan State Normal College. Here the trainees, pre-induction college students or better than average graduates of high schools, were to be given essential knowledge and skills in fields designated by the army officials. Michigan Normal was to be one of the colleges at which the Basic I, first of the two academic divisions, was to be given. After completing this phase of their training the soldiers would be transferred to another college and there be placed in the advanced engineering, medicine, dentistry or other curricular,- sent to tech- nical schools of the arms or services to be trained as instrument repair men, arm- ament mechanics, radar and radio repair men, weather observers and the like, or be assigned to infantry, armored forces, artillery or some other arm of the Army Ground Forces. Because the major ob- jective of the Basic Phase curriculum was to train men capable of going on with further technical training in the A.S.T.P. or in technical service schools, and cap- able of supervising the handling of tech- nical equipment or of handling it them- selves, the greater proportion of academic work was done in mathematics, physics, and chemistry. Basic I is composed of three twelve weeks terms. Of the men attending classes here two of the ten groups, num- bers eight and ten, were found to have sufficient academic background to qualify them for term II as their beginning class work. Term I classes were given algebra and trigonometry while term II and term III men studied analytic geometry and cal- culus respectively. Laboratory and lec- ture periods in physics covered mechanics in term I, heat, sound, and light in term II, and electricity and magnetism in term ill. Chemistry was taught to the groups during the three terms. Student Geography Class Rifle Range Physical Training 116 ZJraininq f ro 9 ' 9 ' In all of these courses the trainee was expected to acquire theoretical and func- tional knowledge of the principles and skills for a foundation in science. As the men in the A. ST. P. training are soldiers of superior intelligence and capacity for sustained intensive work they are capable of assuming a diversity of technical assignments upon graduation from Basic Phase curriculum. Men who have had this training may be an import- ant source for officer replacements. For this reason a relatively limited but im- portant part of the curriculum is in history, geography, and English to prepare them for dealing with organization of men and ideas. History courses in the three terms were divided into three periods: The period through the American Civil War, the period from the end of the Civil War to the end of the First World War, and the period from the end of the First World War to the present. In this study, through understanding the development of de- mocracy, the trainee came to realize the values of this form of government. Closely associated with the study of history is geography, which gave the trainee the basic geographical concepts so important to an understanding of a world at war. English work in reading, speech, and writing developed habits of clear think- ing and self-expression essential to a potential army leader. In the third term an additional class, engineering drawing, was presented to groups eight and ten. During the twenty- four weeks of schooling all groups were instructed in Military Science by the army administrative officers as well as the necessary physical training directed by the college athletic staff. All of the work presented was on the college level and taught by college fac- ulty members. The trainees were expected to maintain the usual academic standards of Michigan Normal. This was accomp- lished through class attendance and dili- gent study during a day that started at 7:C0 A.M. and ended with taps at11:C0. MallCall. Pay Day. Preparing for Inspection.

The various rooms of McKenny Hall are in constant use by the departmental clubs and numerous other organizations where the students and faculty members meet informally. In the Union the typical leisure-time college atmosphere prevails . . . dancing to the juke box, drinking four-o ' clock cokes, attending teas and banquets. 118 MEMORIES ■HI K Kyctober All the waitresses, camp counselors, typists, and even some riveters who could tear themselves away from those chubby pay envelopes returned once more to the joys of M.S.N.C. Soon every- one was hopelessly entangled in the confusion of classes, clubs, and committees and engaged in quietly shooting those sickeningly efficient people who recommend time schedules pasted at con- spicuous places in the room for the purpose of promoting worthy use of leisure time. But which one of the girls hanging out of a dormitory window could say, Back to the old routine, when she saw the members of the A.S.T.P. unit marching by! Once more the gleam of hope sparkled in maidens ' eyes, and the old trapping instinct was revealed, each girl silently reviewing her own list of Ten Best Ways to Get a Man. Sunday morning was the usual scene of chaos. With their official ribbons flying, campus sisters dashed about the dormitory lounges searching madly for their little sisters, hopefully asking mothers and children aged ten for any information that might be useful. The Freshman Tea was held in the Formal Lounge because the soldiers ate their macaroni and jello in the ballroom during the year. Freshmen, left at the door like unwanted children by their campus sisters, responded obediently to questions regarding home towns, reasons for coming to college, courses desired, and were soon swept toward the ice-cream. Only one or two of the less sturdy ones by this time did not have enough strength to go on the sightseeing tour which was brightly conducted by an energetic physical education student, closely followed by groaning girls in tor- turous ration-free shoes. There were fourteen new faculty appointments made on the campus. English students gathered for a teeth-gnashing session when they discovered that Dr. Harrold was no longer here, but had gone to Ohio State University. Dr. Hoy returned from South America with a new mustache. It looked like a good year for the Geography Department. At the first all-college assembly, President Munson introduced the members of Company H ac- cording to their home states. The traditional all pep rally aroused the old school spirit, and the initial all-college party held in the gym was a success, the social committee having thoughtfully re- moved such hazards as tumbling mats, iron bars, etc. Pi Kappa Delta elected Betty Hayden as President and the Freshman Class got off to a good start with Helen Rahm and Don Wisely as class leaders. All the departmental clubs were begin- ning to get under way, weary presidents and committee members attempting by subtle threats to induce attendance at such meetings. Charles Greig was elected president of the Men ' s Union by the seventy-one civilian men who were viewing with apprehension the obvious effect of the pres- ence of the A.S.T.P. boys on campus. Tom Greig, Jean Gillie, and Mary Ann Melick were the new class presidents. Everyone was surprised to learn that there were twenty-seven men out to fill the positions of the varsity eleven! The Hurons walloped Wayne U. with a 14-0 score in both games played with this team. Sorority girls put on their best clothes and faces for the formal teas, going through facial exer- cises after the rushing season to relieve the tired aching muscles strained by continuous smiles. Women ' s League activities promised a busy year, as President Dorothy Rahm and Chairman Betty Everett revealed the new club and service program. 120 New view. That hostess smile.

Already Mitch and M. A. Lyngklip were starting out with their hatchets, trying to get everybody s picture in the Aurora. Later the office was crowded with people who wanted to see how their reprints came out. One would think that college students get younger every day as the shy freshman smiles glance coyly from the pages which proudly announce Seniors . The Wednesday night Coke dances were becoming increasingly popular, and we were con- stantly assured that all we needed was a dime clutched in our grubby little hands in order to enjoy an hour of dancing to the music of the juke box in the Men ' s Lounge at McKenny Hall. As Harvest Hop time drew near, girls began beating the dust out of formals and as a matter of secondary importance looking for a man to take to the dance. Bill Sawyers music and the quan- tities of colored leaves which had been worked on and walked on in King Halls corridors for weeks before the event helped to make the charcoal-smeared committee satisfied with its efforts. Everyone was doing Red Cross work, and if a person had not been knitting, sewing, making surgical dressings, or donating great quantities of blood, life-size posters with accusing fingers seemed to single her out for eternal punishment. Saturday night At Homes in the softly-lighted Alumni Lounge of McKenny Hall were well- attended. This was one phase of the war effort for which coeds seemed to have plenty of time, and could point out at great lengths the values derived from wholesome recreation for boys in the service, the need for social activities, and our duties toward these individuals away from home and Loved Ones, etc. Earthquake ' Magoon ' s leaving for the Navy was a loss to the campus. For a while, no more hilarious classes, jujitsu, or those bone-crushing handshakes after which one casually counted the fingers, just to check. The football men continued practice and held several scrimmages with the ASTers. The Greig twins successfully perplexed the opponents who thought Michigan Normal was playing with a ten man team due to the male shortage. Civilian male enrollment dropped as Uncle Sam wrote his I want you ' ' message to a number of the first floor Munson Hall residents. Girls were unhappy, for in spite of the rooms full of soldiers, there was still a certain something about a civilian — namely, his complete freedom from time regulations. Miss Carey and Mrs. Magoon s I Smell the Devil was published. Students seen quietly dozing in classes could be pointed out as those imprudent enough to start this little book at twelve o clock the night before. In these times there are many problems which beset the minds of young students, and this month s thought question, with its solemn implications, was, Will we ever be able to sleep in again on Saturday mornings, or will we have become so accustomed to hearing Co. H ' s raucous shouts of Good morning to you , and Time to get up, girls! ' that those days are gone forever? 122 All sorts-all sports. Huron war cries. That 1000th Harvest Hop leaf. It satisfied. Sawyer ' s music makers. Hurons making Tartar sauce. 123 Decemb December arrived, and as well as the joys Santa brings came the Christmas activities with their unrelenting regularity, until the seventeenth, when every haggard student dragged home to be greeted by the horrified cries of the family who rushed immediately for the new bottle of vitamin pills. Every organization on campus felt the need for a party before the holidays, and library books describing group games and mixers guaranteeing a Good Time had a great circulation. We will not soon forget the Winter of the Great Orange-Ice, for no matter where a victim went, sooner or later he would feel a cold object thrust into his hand, and glancing down hopelessly, would behold the inevitable dixie-cup with its familiar content. Basketball men practiced daily with the hope of having a successful season. A victory was won over Detroit Tech, but the Michigan State Normal Quintet bowed to Kalamazoo with a score of 44-38 in the big game of the season. Throughout the season only one home game was lost, and that to the U. of D. Tartars in a hard-fought session. Many rooms in McKenny Hall were utilized for the Christmas Party which offered everything from soft lights and music in the Alumni Lounge to the amazing prediction of a fortune teller who related that a letter would very likely be received with the next month or two. The College Choir, with the Roosevelt and Lincoln Choirs, presented the Christmas Concert, the annual Yuletide highlight. All campus organizations were tuning up the monotones to take part in the Christmas Sing, De- cember 16. Total participation was the goal; comments about a long career in the Crow section in the third grade falling on deaf ears. Agile members of the Women ' s League could be seen scaling the campus buildings to hang wreaths and Christmas ribbons in all the customary places. In spite of the usual December rush, many noble souls dragged down to donate blood for the Red Cross at the church where that flag waves somewhat ominously in the breeze. Scientific ob- servers report that it is only a very attractive girl who still looks lovely when she suddenly sprawls unconscious on the table with her face resting comfortably in a plate of sandwiches. Everyone who had been good enough to expect something from Santa was hoping for bobby- pins. This problem was becoming crucial. Roommates were beginning to have quarrels, and it was no uncommon sight to see some Unfortunate crawling sadly around the floor searching for these precious bits of metal, and laughing with fiend- like glee when she found one to put in the lock-box. Fortunately, children have been brought up on horror movies, ghastly radio programs, and blood- curdling bedtime stories, so that they do not scream in terror as a Harpy student teacher armed with her lesson-plan stalks into the room. Eventually the last day came, and everyone left the campus gleefully, remembering only vaguely the sickening sensation felt when some inhumane professor began, Well, since you will have two weeks with nothing to do, I think ... 124 Herrick tradition. Hark, the Herald Angels. League laborers. 125 And they call this Hell Week . Christmas atmosphere. Eyes front. J- a n liar ¥ January, the month of broken resolutions, started with that usual let-down feeling that follows a vacation. Soon it seemed as if we had not been away at all. Except for the gifts from remote relatives with whom there is no communication except at Christmas time, those gadgets whose chief practical value is that they are best sellers at the Stoic White Elephant Sale, Christmas was only a memory. Faculty members took a quick look at the amount of time left in the semester, the amount of work yet to be covered in the course, made a quick mental computation, and arrived at a conclusion which had an immediate effect on the daily lives of all those preparing to go out in the field. Never- theless, an all college party, a frosh party, an upperclass women ' s party, as well as the ever popular coke dances kept even the most confirmed beavers from too much scholarly effort. The English Club subjected its members to one of the more enlightened tortures of the modern world — a quiz program, with each helpless victim trying to formulate some response that would not be too disgracefully incorrect, so that he could quietly retire into a peaceful corner to smirk- ingly enjoy the rest of the program. The meeting of all language students on campus was an interesting experiment — French drama, Latin comedy, Spanish songs, and German melodies sung in what must have been good Frank Sinatra style, although not much research work has been done in the field of screams, their significance and ways of distinguishing those of agony from those of delight. Mr. J. M. Clifford, secretary of the Michigan Teachers ' Retirement Fund Board spoke to the faculty and students on the subject of the present teachers ' retirement system in Michigan, a rather ominous topic. The flu-infected Huron quintet lost the Grosse He Naval Base, Fort Custer, and the U. of D. but defeated the Naval Officers ' Procurement. The flu became as fashionable as colored ribbons in the girls hair,and those who did not spend two or three days enjoying the social life at Health Residence were regarded as having rather horse-like characteristics. The disease seemed to be most keenly felt at about seven o ' clock in the morning, just at the time when the horses were drag- ging themselves to eight o ' clocks. With the opening of the W.A.A. basketball season, determined students of the athletic type attempted to interest everyone in this activity, even those who could remember excelling in only one sport: Dodgeball. Corridor teams were formed and the fight for the tournament championship was on. There seemed to be some kind of confusion concerning the weather. Instead of face-slashing wind and icy snow, spring-like days followed one another uninterruptedly. It was decided that there must be a student teacher at the controls somewhere who did not have a carefully enough constructed lesson plan. 126 Concentrating chemist. Where ' s that Michigan winter? Winter refuge. 127 Winter Naiads. Company halt. Canny Cagers. Phys. Ed? ruar v Books that had never been touched all year were frantically clutched as finals drew closer. At last, however, each hour and a half was crossed off the schedule, and there were no more thought of A and B, B and C, all of these, none of these, etc. The first semester was officially forgotten, the only reminder being the little yellow card which follows two weeks later, accompanied by brief parental comments. Classification day with its inevitable problems soon arrived — a harried senior wondering vaguely how she can manage required four-hour and two-hour classes which come at the same time, a disgusted sophomore whose muttered comments reveal that he has a strong- willed adviser and has a schedule with five eight o ' clocks checked in a neat row on his card, a weary adviser saying through her teeth, You didn ' t mark the total number of hours, ' ' or What is the section number of that course? The Special Education students were completely uncoordinated for about two weeks, awaiting the arrival of Tom Harmon, whose nephew attends Rackham School. His visit was everything that was expected, and after a few days students were able to make comments regarding not only him but also the One With the Blond Hair, starlet Elyse Knox. Dr. Yoder, head of the Ypsilanti State Hospital addressed the girls at a Women ' s League as- sembly with the encouraging topic, You Are Not Expendable. Miss Royce, the secretary of the national Y. W. C. A. spoke at a Faculty Chat discussing men and women as partners in the war. The Social Science Club presented Dr. Carl E. Pray as the speaker at their annual observance of George Washington ' s birthday. The Stomp Inn , held in the grill of McKenny Hall was a big success. To the melodies furnished by name bands such as Dorsey, Herman and Miller, the Munson males and King and Goodison females stomped in rhythm. This juke box had become the thing and luckily it was not necessary to hear from it the baffling Marzie Doats. Miss Wolfe ' s Spanish students were really taking an interest in their work. Every Tuesday they attended the Gilbert House to talk with attractive Mexicans who were working in Ypsilanti for a few months. One of the advantages of this arrangement was that it improved their ability to speak Spanish. By the end of two wee ks of the semester, everyone had begun to state that it was definitely the busiest semester that had ever been experienced by anyone in the whole history of M.S.N.C. Many hours were spent discussing this subject, each person proving conclusively that she had more work to do than anyone else, and that there was not enough time to do everything that should be done. After such a discussion, the unanimous decision would be of course that a Good Night ' s Rest is always desirable and conducive to better activities the next day, and besides, who cares anyway? And so on into March. 12S What, no critic! When it ' s blue book time at Normal Greeks and would-be Greeks. exchange chatter. Double feature — Harmon and Elyse Knox. Pre-Stomp Inn. 129 nu The Juniors succeeded in making the J-Hop a big success in spite of the so-called male shortage. Kid brothers, young cousins, and loyal uncles came nobly to the rescue. The Hop was the last big dance before the A.S.T.P. unit left the campus. A Coffee Hour honoring Company H was held in the Formal Lounge of McKenny Hall, but not many of the soldiers came. It must have been that they were not worried about their grades and could afford to lose this excellent opportunity. Dr. Fritz Redl spoke to the members of the Occupational Therapy and Special Education Clubs on the subject of Discipline and Punishment, a topic close to the thoughts of slaving student teachers. The Women s League Service program progressed, with approximately two hundred girls en- listed for social work. There were many tasks which one could do, ranging from quelling screaming mobs at the nursery school to knitting those six inch (after much stretching or skrinking) squares for afghans. The rushing season, ending with the dinners for which families were prevailed upon to give up precious ration points, brought about another Hell Week. During this time, one could see grue- somely dressed, blushing pledges, quietly sneaking about campus to avoid recognition. It was not a rare sight to see the be-slacked girls hanging from window ledges of the dormitory fourth floors as they carefully polished the glass panes to pass the critical inspection of worth superior. The Women s League Card Party was attended by the card enthusiasts, some triumphantly carry- ing off the prizes. Those unfortunates who do not play bridge, as usual, meekly surrounded the Chinese Checker boards, becoming interested only when the board would fall on the floor and the marbles would roll happily under all the tables and chairs, resulting in great confusion very upsetting to the bridge players. The College Splash Party at Roosevelt was a big success. The Social Committee proudly an- nounced that not a single person drowned, thanks to the diligent efforts of capable life savers. One gashed head was the only accident. Professor Avard Fairbanks of the University of Michigan gave a demonstration lecture on the theory and technique of sculpture at the Stoic Banquet. An additional feature of the banquet was that two of the professor ' s eight sons sang some songs for the group. The one of Professor Fair- banks statues which had gained especial national recognition is called The Pioneer Mother. The last gloomy Wednesday of March was a sad one for the students and faculty of M.S.N.C. The boys of Company H left the campus early in the morning, and the familiar strains of Auld Lang Syne were never before as strangely moving as when sung by the boys who were disappearing from sight in the morning mist. 130 Any Wednesday 6:30-7:30 Chess kibitzer. And so they eat. Forecast of spring. What will the harvest be? 131 Tprii T ' I he Coed Cabana, the Annual Women ' s League Party for girls only, was highly entertaining, especially the part presented by the faculty, who put the students to shame by excelling even in pure corn. All Fool ' s Day was an appropriate date for the affair. One thing of especial note during the month of April was the Stoic White Elephant Sale, which is enjoyable for students and profitable for the organization. As people stand around afterwards, looking doubtfully at the possessions for which they have been eagerly bidding only a few minutes before, one of them dares to remark casually that he wonders just what he isgoingtodo with these newly gained possessions. A helpful Stoic standing nearby solves the problem by recommending that the purchases be saved until next year when they can be donated again to the sale! The buyer departs, impressed by the logic of this simple but wise advice. Life in the dormitories had settled down to a quiet manless existence. Girls who had been rushing about week-ends to prepare for dates with the ASTers were now becoming involved in the confusion of mail distribution, hoping for a letter postmarked Camp McCoy. A crowd would gather before the mail arrived, and hover about expectantly. Soon there would be quite serious congestion at the boxes, and it was only a sturdy individual who dared try to beat her way through the mob. After all the struggle, there was always the question, Was this Book-of-the-Month ad- vertisement really worth the trouble 7 The girls who referred to King Hall or Goodison Hall as the Sardine Club when they received those letters at the end of the summer with Roommates instead of the usual Roommate listed were now adjusted to the situation. Of course, those who arrived earliest in the fall were more fortunate in that they acquired the lower decks. Even though it was rather trying at first, now the girls who slept above learned how to descend for their 8 o ' clocks without stepping on the face of the room- mate below. Typical of women with time on their hands, hours were spent in rearranging rooms. Many a roommate returned Sunday night to a rather startling situation. A tactful one pointed out gently that the only way she could possibly get to the drawers of her desk was to crawl through the ward- robe and vault the bookcase. When the problem was talked over quietly, usually a satisfactory conclusion was reached, and the new arrangement was labelled Attractive, but Impractical. Of course, there was always the housekeeping problem. Tuesdays, room inspection day, was the only day on which unexpected guests were not detained out in the hall while the faithful room- mate did a quick clean-up job worthy of any second grader in Mother ' s Little Helpers Club. April found an increasing number of people appearing on the Good Housekeeping list. Yes, this month was a month of living to its fullest the dormitory life — from peanut butter and crackers to bridge sessions. 132 Clean-up time. Solemn Christmas thoughts. Big business. RIGHT AROUND THE DORM. 133 Say a Prayer — . Corridor meeting. No men needed. 1710,4 une Spring as usual brought many involvements, and students with their clear young brows deeply furrowed pondered profound problems: What is the ultimate value of one meeting of a three o clock class on Friday afternoon ' ! ' Does a term paper ' s being late alter the intrinsic worth of the material? Why is an evening in Sleepy Hollow more inspirational than two nights in the library? One or two people, dragging themselves around with the aid of two crutches and a cane, were heard complaining that they were tired and needed some spring vacation. Of course these ground- less gripings were quickly silenced by those clear-thinking individuals who pointed out calmly but firmly that after all, classes did not meet Good Friday afternoon. Naturally there was no reply to this effective answer. Those who bought one of the new victory Half Hats wondered vaguely what the other half was. Spring blouses were quite frilly, demanding that one be especially skillful when eating, un- less liking to crunch on dainty bits of crisp ruffles. Nearly everyone had become accustomed by this time to rayons bagging attractively around the ankles and knees. The subject of ill-fitting rayons, however, as a topic of conversation was found to be not too safe, since the person might be wearing only leg make-up instead of hose. Seniors preparing to be out in the field were still having interviews in those cozy little screened sections of the Placement Office. After hurrying to arrive at the hour of appointment, there would be a long wait during which one could hear voices discussing basic principles of child guidance. This resulted in a mental note to mutter inaudible responses to all such questions. At last the victim, having received the signal, was ready to enter. The shock of the first sight of the individual, so dif- ferent from the picture imagined from listening to the voice, resulted in forgetting his name. The ready substitutes coming quickly to mind were immediately dismissed as unsuitable. Then the clubby interview! The type which has c aused the most insanity among students is the one in which the man knows someone from the town in which the beaming senior has spent childhood years from the age of five to ten inclusive. This furnishes Something in Common and after five minutes of desperate sparring, there is at last success. They do not both know any one person, but he has heard of the father of an early playmate of the senior, who is by this time ready to admit close friendship with Louie the Lug and his Gang. Senior Class Day was valuable in that it gave students courage to face conditions in the present world. If civilization becomes as complex as indicated by the Seniors in their presentation of life at M.S.N.C. twenty-five years from now, many people would probably rather roll up in one of the new sidewalks and just relax. The Flag Walk was impressibly conducted. Efficient committee members made a survey of the campus, marking with large white X ' s every possible spot where seniors could stop to shed a silent tear for the memories gathered there. It was sad to say good-bye even to the squirrels of Pierce Hall. The mobs of worried-looking people gathered round the fateful graduation list in McKenny Hall the day before graduation seemed to indicate that the members of the class of 44 expected to graduate Mirabile Dictu rather than magna cum laude. The end of the year arrived, with Pierce Hall s bricks still holding together, the four corners still a good meeting place, and no student losing his life falling through the stairs going up to handwritirg. Everybody still cut his way through the smoke at the Drug, paid library fines, knew the value of G.I., and utilized the Alumni Lounge. 134 Coming up. It takes all kinds. Latest addition.
