Set-Ups and Set-Backs of 1939 By Jean Gibbs I I OPES for the year of 1938-39 ran high, but ' when the achievements of the year were summed up, they seemed almost paradoxical. Open- ing with the science hall a realization and ending with the student union building a dead dream, the year has been a maze of successes and defeats. The progress of Kansas State might be compared with Kansas weather, sunny one minute, and gloomy the next, but always changing. Freshman week started with a bang, although fewer frosh than last year enrolled. That was counteracted by the total enrollment, another re- cord breaker — -of 3,918, an increase of 63 students over last year. Change in Constitution A move to give Kansas Staters more say in their government was evidenced by the changes made in the Student Governing Association con- stitution by student vote early in the year. Di- visional representation was inaugurated, increas- ing the membership from seven to nine and insur- ing each division a voice in the body. The 1938 Royal Purple was honored as a Pace- maker, the third consecutive time the K-State annual has received this award given by the National Scholastic Press Association to only five yearbooks each year. A feature of Homecoming activities and the climax of the seventy-fifth anniversary celebrations was the greatest parade in the history of the college. Two and one-half miles of floats, representing every civic and college organization and depart- ment, passed before thousands of visitors. Student Union a Sore Spot The result of the plans for a student union build- ing is still a sore spot in the hearts of Kansas LAYING THE CORNERSTONE of Willard Hall ore Superintendent of Construction William Duncan; Dr. J. T. Willard, for whom the building was named; Jay Payne, chairman of the ceremonies; C. M. Harger, chairman of the Board of Regents; and President F. D. Fcrrell. Page 21
