MANSFIELD UNIVERSITY LIBRARV 3 3098 00241 9260 DATE DUE SI Volume 27 • • •• MANSFItLU blAIL CULLhGE. LIbKAK! FOREWORD This year, we are indeed fortunate to have a yearbook. Due to conditions existing at the present time we have met with many difficulties in publishing the college annual. There is little need to elaborate on this situation, since the readers of this book will be familiar with the various handicaps. However, we do have a book which many of us will cherish and spend many pleasant hours in retro- spect during the years that follow. The book has been cut a great dsal in size, but remember, our sacri- fice of having a smaller book , is minute in comparison to the sacri- fices of millions. .

To reach this goal it is necessary to have the cooperation of the Home, the School, the Factory, and the Church. With these thoughts in mind, we humbly, but proudly dedicate this, the twenty-seventh edition of the Caronta- wan, to our President, MR. JAMES G. MORGAN. Mr. Morgan has served the college for the past twenty- three years, and has witnessed many progressive changes during this time. -%:j- 5 .- ■■■ K,- . ■ - . {2 -S ' ' ' - ' ' - ' -V: ;-••• : ' ji v : : - :£.„ J ' THE COLL EGE • PRESIDENT • In The President ' s Office The college experiences of the class of 1944 have had as a background the disrupting overtones of three college administrations and four years of global conflict. The college is grateful to them for their patience and loyalty under most adverse conditions. During this period many mem- bers of the class enlisted in the armed forces and scores have been and now are in actual combat in remote quarters of the world. Of their deeds of valor Mansfield is eternally proud. To them and to you we suggest as your class motto the words of William James; The great use of a life is to spend it for something that outlasts it. There is the great challenge to your college education and its great- est contribution. The primary function of your college has never been the grim business business of educating fighting men. The men and women of M ansfield, who are spending their lifes today in defense of a philosophy of Ufe we hold dear, will have spent their lives for something which out- lasts them only if we are capable of educating America ' s youth in con- structive democratic principles so that the basis of a world worth fighting for may be attained. This is our task. — James G. Morgan, President. OF THE COLLEGE The President at Home DR. CYRIL L. STOUT, Dean of Men MISS DOROTHY M. WASLEY, Dean of Women The evidences of the war are nowhere more apparent upon our campus than among our men. So many have been called to do their bit in the armed forces that your ranks have been greatly de- pleted. Many of you have entered upon your college career knowing full well that it would be short. Those of you who are permitted to complete the work for a de- gree have an equal responsibility. It is for you to acquire the knowledge, poise, judgment, and qualities of leadership which are necessary to keep the educa- tional front intact so that those returning from the battlefront may find a dynamic not stagnant society Opportunities for developing the personality are provided for you through contacts with other stu- dents and with the faculty Here a two- fold responsibility is involved. One is that of the college in providing the rich- est experiences for you. The other means that you must make the most of these op- portunities to the mutual benefit of all. —Cyril L. Stout, Acting Dean of Men, We as college women must focus cur attention on the responsibilities we are assuming and will assume in building the kind of world we want. Two basic fac- tors, world cooperation and the develop- ment of human beings, challenge us. Cer- tainlj ' a college campus is an appropriate place to practice cooperation in effective living. Here at Mansfield may each of you use every opportunity to develop your character so as to be Sympathetic, understanding, and tolerant, and your mind so as to develop a realistic basic philosophy and resomxefulness in meet- ing the uncertain future. This is my sin- cerest wish for you. — Dorothy M. Wasley. Dean of Women Faculty HUGH W. ALGER, A.B. (Yale), M.Sc. (Temple), Supervisor of Science. ELIZABETH S. ALLEN, B.S.

This department has much to contribute to wise spending, careful saving, budgeting of time, money and energy. Discussion of these problems encourages individual resourcefulness and thereby helps to develop independent and constructive thinking in the solution of problems of living which are pertinent to the planning for national welfare and enduring victory. The students are given an opportunity to participate in all phases of homemaking. The student teachers are given guidance in their student teaching on campus and during their six weeks vocational practice off campus. MRS. ELIZ.4BETH B. MORALES, Director of Homemaking Department DEPARTMENT JUNIOR RIGH SCHOOL LUNCH During six weeks of their junior year, groups of homemaking students manage the Junior High School Lunch under the supervision of Miss Farrer. The girls rotate duties so that each member of the gi ' oup has experience in each of the activities involved in carrying out a successful school lunch. This includes plan- ning of meals, marketing, prepara- tion and serving, and financial ac- counting with banking experience. Each student when manager plans the activities for the other members of the group. The school lunch is not set up on a money making basis, but is run to provide experience for the college students and at the same time provide nutritionally adequate and attractive, yet inexpensive lunch for the school children. • School Lunch At Home THE HOME MANAGEMENT APARTMENT Six weeks of the junior year the homemaking students live in the home management apartment or the practice house. This gives them an opportunity to show how they can blend the theories or practices learned during their first two college years. Like school lunch, the duties rotate. Students who have personal interest, who esteem friend- ship and what it stands for, who like to share the work and pleasures of others, find this course an enriching experience. MUSIC EDUCATION Due to the fact that many men students have been called to serve a vastly larger organization, our country, the music department has been considerably reduced this year. Under the guidance of Mr. Bertram W. Francis, the remain- ing students are determined to keep the high teaching stan- dards set by the preceding students throughout the state of Pennsylvania, New York and New Jersey. To keep these high standards the students realize that they must put even more effort into their work than ever before. The war with all of its scientific developments will naturally have the effect of retarding the development of the art of music mak- ing these concentrated efforts necessary. Not only are the music students determined to keep the teaching standard high, but they are equally determined to be as vital a part of campus activity as in preceding years. The usual Sunday afternoon recitals, in which both soloists and ensemble groups tak e part, are one of the en- tertainments sponsored by the music department. The ad- DEPARTMENT vanced Choral group is another organization which par- ticipates in campus activities by presenting assembly pro- grams and taking part in the vesper services of Straughn Hall. Both the band and the orchestra open the doors for the students of other departments to join them in reading interesting music literature. Besides the pratical experience gained by the students from the organizations of band, orchestra and chorus and also through their participation in the recitals, there is also the student teaching program of the training schools. Here the seniors of the department meet for the first time the actual experiences of teaching and with the guidance of su- pervisors are directed into the field of effective teaching. Included in the music curriculum are interesting courses concerning music theory and culture. Individuals are given private instruction in the fields of both voice and instrumental work. The students are required to become acquainted with the fundamentals of playing as many in- struments as possible. Junior High School THE STUDENT TEACHERS The Junior High School is a lovely red brick building located upon a hill above the main part of the college campus. It accomodates the seventh, eighth, and ninth grade children from Mansfield and the surrounding township. These students are very fortunate as this is one of the best equipped schools in this part of the state. The variety of courses offered presents to each individual pupil an opportunity to develop his interests and talents. In addition to the I ' egular acadeniic subjects, there are others which seek to achieve a broader re- finement. A well planned program of physical education is executed. Art and Music are designed to serve the purpose of expanding the cultural aspect. The industrial arts shop provides the means of familiarizing the youth with the different handicrafts. The homemaking department strives In Miss Grigsby ' s Office to give the boys and girls a practical foundation which should make them better qualified to take their place in the home. The homemaking depart- ment also maintains a cafeteria luncheon service which is beneficial to both students and supervisors. This service helps to insure the health of the child by offering a well balanced and nutritious meal. Extra curricular activities are planned to enrich and extend the stu- dents ' social life For example, an mterest in iports is encouraged. A fine selection of books is to be found on the shelves of the library. The supervisors of the Junior High School have a dual task to per- form. It IS that of teaching the pupils and also trainmg the student teach- ers to take their place in the teaching profession. Their rich background of experience makes them very well fitted for this work. Secondary Educa ' rion Club Seated: Snell. Reese. Colwell. First Row: Youns. Miss O ' Brien. Beardslee. Dr. Swan.

W MW MT The Secondary Education Club is one of the most recently developed organi;;ations on the campus and its membership is open to any student in the Secondary Department, including the Laboratory Schools. As its name implies, the purpose of this club is to unite in active co- operation the students and faculty interested in Secondary Education. Mr. Eugene P. Bertin, Director of Secondary Education, is the club s sponsor and has been an important factor in the establishment and growth of the Secondary Club. The program for this year has been organized to open up several important issues in the field such as, Juvenile Delinquency ; Articula- tion cf Secondary and Higher Education ; The Development of a Freer Rapport between Instructors and Students on the Campus ; and Affilia- tion with the State and National Associations . The officer personnel consisted of Frank Chicochi, President; Anne Martin, Secretary; Ethel Nicholas, Treasui ' er. Junior High School Supervisors STUDENT TEACHERS Who are the student teachers? They are the college students in the secondary, music and homemaking departments who have entered the last stretch of their college training before graduation. A student teach- er participates and teaches either in his major or minor field. At first they participate and observe while their supervisor demonstrates how it ' s done. Later the student teacher takes over and teaches the class on his own. Their supervisor offers suggestions and constructive criti- cism. The basic principle of this program is the slogan, Learning by Doing . It seeks to iron out any problems or difficulties that may confront the budding teacher. Thus he leaves the college confident that teaching is really what he wants to do. JESSIE I. GRIGSBY Principal Junior High JUNIOR HIGH SUPERVISORS Mr. Higley. Miss Murphey, Miss O ' Brien, Mr. A!g:er.

Elementary School This new building of red brick trimmed with Indiana lim.estone pre- sents a pleasant picture that the citizens of tomorrow will always treasure in their memories. This modern structure was designed to develop the abilities and interests of the child and make his school life a happy expe- rience. The elementary school guides the child from kindergarten through the sixth grade. It is here that much of the foundation for later life is laid. Many advantages of modern educational research are put into practice. There is a beautiful library room with books especially for their appeal and interest to young readers. Art music and industrial arts have their place in the curriculum in addition to the traditional three R ' s . This model school also possesses a lovely gymnasium auditorium. Most of the classrooms have an observotion booth where the pupils may be ob- served unnoticed. Accumulative records are kept of each child which serve as indica- tors of the child ' s progress. These include the results of in- telligence tests, reading tests, per- formance tests and also records of the growth of the child ' s character and personality traits. This infor- mation establishes a basis for more efficient teaching systems by placing the child in groups and thereby mak- ing it easier to solve the problems of the individual child. Every room is in charge of a su- pervisor whose task is to instruct the children and advise the student teacher. This job is not a simple one. However, with their fine back- ground of professional experience and pleasant, tactful personalities, these supervisors are truly the ones for this responsibility. Classes In Dr. Retan ' s Office The American Association for Childhood Education First Row: Casey. Corbin, Scudder, Hedgre, Wilson, Bump, Danielksi. Wood, Wier, Benn, Hickok.

Roupp, S locum. The association for childhood education is made up of all students and supervisors in the elementary field. The main purpose of this organization is to further the development of Childhood Education. It is also the desire of this association to bring about and maintain high ideals m the field of elementary teaching and to instill within the prospective teachers in the organization the fundamen- tals of the teaching profession. The monthh ' meetings offer the members the opportunity to express their opinions and thoughts for the betterment of our organization and add to the enjoyment of all. Under the capable direction of our co-sponsors Dr. G. A. Retan and Miss Mildred Grigsby the association has shown a keen interest in both its members and in doing all that is possible to prepare the students to meet successfully the present emergencies of the elementary teaching profession.  Kindergarten THE CLASSES SENIOR Sf NIOR CLASS OFFICERS President — Rodsky Treasurer — Harrington Vice President — Stuart Secretary — Snyder ' W v ' ' fPffT ' ' ' T ij ■■.., = ■ ' ' fil: Out in ttie Field In the Apartment CLASS To the Class of 1944: A great American philosopher has said: If there is any period one would desire to be born in, is it not the age of Revolution; where the old and the new stand side by side and admit of be- ing compared: when the energies of all men are searched by fear and by hope; when the historic glories of the old can be compensated by the rich possibilities of the new era. This time, like all times, is a very good one, if we but know what to do with it. The nature of the post-war world will depend on you and on the girls and boys whom you will guide. May you, therefore, the Class of 1944. take with you from Mansfield the wisdom to know what to do with your new world, and the faith and courage to translate your knowledge into living deeds. Sincerely, — Elizabeth Marshall Sioan. DR. ELIZABETH SWAN. Senior Class Adviser CLASS OF 1944 For the past four years the history of the class of 1944 has been interwoven in a sucession of haoTDenings of world-wide interests. History is a fascinating thing, however, because it is living. Each day is but another page in the history of the world, and each minute sees new history written. The progress of man sweeps along, impeded at times by wars and depressions, but the onward march is ever present. We, as proud seniors, are now to go out into the field of education. Plans must be made for a future. Mansfield has contributed much towards this uncertain future. Our college days have been meaningful in too many ways to mention. We hope our efforts and contributions have been just as significant to our Alma Mater. And may there be read in the annals of our class records one short line — They served their fellow-man. miar fe IT V E. JEAN AUTEN Homemaking Danville, Penna.

In one of Mr H. G. Well ' s novels, The Undying Fire. the chief character, the headmaster of a British boys ' school, speaks of his school as a torch at w hich lives have been set aflame. And then he speaks of the essential work of the teacher as he conceives it. It is the work, he says, of re- leasing men and women from the narrow prison of self into a large circle of ideas in which they can forget themselves and their meager personal ends. It is for the teacher, he says, to open men ' s eyes to the past and to the future and to the undying life of man. — S. Marjorie Murphey. MISS S. MARJORIE ML RPHEY Junior Class Adviser It seems that fate has been against our college class, for each year has brought with it a few depressing incidents which have been challenges to us. Before we were even enrolled to become freshmen in 1941 the infantile paralysis epidemic retarded the arrival of some of our members. In cur sophomore year a great majority of the boys in our class responded to the call of our country. And this year some of the girls have chosen actual defense work and real home mak- ing jobs in preference to the educational field. We hope and believe that we have accepted these challenges by carrying on our class activi- ties as normally as possible. May we continue to do our part in this time of world conflict, both to our school and to our country. To you boys in the service we send our regards and hope you like the following pictures. May we remind you that you still have a place in Mans- field. Best of luck, ' 45ers ! RUSSEL ANDERSON— Music— Kane, Pa. JUNE E. ARMSTRONG— Homcmakirg— Taylor. Pa. SUSAN B.

Un- fortunately, these adverse conditions haven ' t been subdued, and during this past year many of your classmates have left your ranks to answer the call of service. However, as a class, you have excelled in friendliness, eager participation in college activi- ties, and scholastic averages. May you keep up the good work, and your cheerful, friendly spirits, so that your ex-class- mates and Mansfield will always be proud of you. — Janett M. Lehennav . MISS JANETT LEBERMAN Sophomore Class Adviser Two years ago in September, 1942, seventy-five new faces appeared on Mansfield ' s campus. We are sorry to say, however, that all those seventy- five people are not with us today. But each is doing his part in the present conflict. Many of the boys have been called to help protect our country And here in Mansfield some of us have chosen to follow the accelerated program which will allow us to graduate one year earlier than planned. We ' re all doing our part on the home front by preparing ourselves for the world to come and by making it a better world for those after us when peace is here once more. We have not been able to have as many class activities as we would like, but the Class of ' 46 has the spirit, faith and determination to carry en.

FRESHMAN FRESHMAN CLASS OFFICERS President — Phineas Kuhl Vice President — Ann McCawley Secretary — Connie Nares Treasurer — Philip Kuhl Next year they ' ll be tlie Sophomores I Here we are, Mansfield, the Seniors of 1947. At present, of course, you may refer to us as the Freshmen. Although our enrollment fell a little short of other years, our entrance here was a merry one, making up for deficiency in number by multiplication of activity and ambition. Rum- ors from upper classmen carry tales of more gay and exciting pre-war days at M. S. T. C, but we, realizing that our sacrifice is minute compared to millions of others, are firm believers in making the best of what we have . Consequently, com- mittees representing all curricula delved deep into thought and we all resolved to make a good time for everyone. First of all, we upheld each other ' s morale and weakened the Sophs ' at initia- tion (which, incidentally, we all loved!). Then, getting into the swing, we managed to be partici- pants in assembly programs, college sings, and various campus organizations. Next, we com- bined to present our impressive Christmas pro- gram, and again to be host at the annual Frosh party. More fun! So far we ' ve done well, don ' t you agree? Just wait till next year, and next and the next ! Our quartet of Elementary, Home Ec, Secondary and Music Sups is one that can ' t be beaten! Greetings to the Class of 1947! You have completed one phase of your college education and doubtless are evaluating it in terms of the progress you have made. A person is re- spected if he has a worthwhile task to do and does it well. Have you put forth your greatest effort to do your college work as effectively as possible? It is essential that you do so because our country is in constant need of trained leaders. During the next three years study diligently so as to learn as much as possible, interpret what you learn in terms of use in daily living, and face wisely each personal problem that confronts you. In this way you will become a valuable leader in building the world of tomorrow. As your advisers, may we wish for you a college experience which is meaningful and a life which is worthwhile.

Thiemann. Mis3 Wasley. The ]943- ' 44 Student Council has had a happy and successful year despite the many difficulties inflected upon it due to the uncontrollable problems of war. Many new ideas and plans have been initiated and the older perhaps more enjoyable, projects and activities discarded until peace shall cnce more bring not only college life — but aJl life — back to normal. rhe Student Council, which is the governing body of the Mansfield State Teachers College Government Association, is made up of 12 mem- bers. These representatives are: Officers of the Council, class presidents, editors of publications, dormitory president and day student president. Because cf the present emergency the Council has been reduced from the former 20 members to only 12 representatives. The Council has promoted numerous projects, among them are; Big and Little Sister System, plan- ning of the social calendar, publication of The Password , operation of extra-class point system, appointment of Mansfield representatives to Who ' s Who in American Colleges and Universities and organization of Freshman Week. Besides these usual activities, the 1943- ' 44 Council has also inaugurated the Friday night sale of War Stamps, as well as the pre- sentation of an assembly program on Campus Traditions . The Student Council is eager to do the best possible in all phases of its functions and with the complete co-operation of the entire student body its desires shall be fulfilled May Day Perhaps May Day was just an- other day. Or perhaps it was a me- morable cccasion. To all the under classmen let me say this, May Day is not just another daJ but a day of recognition for many and a day for all who participate. It is not only a day of recognition for the seniors, but also a glimpse of college life for next year ' s frosh. On this day Mans- field plays host to many high school students from the surrounding area. The May Day festival was ruled by the regal Queen, Katherine Ets- weiler. Her court was composed of eight outstanding Seniors from the class of 43 . She was crowned Queen at an impressive ceremony in the afternoon. She and her court presided over the dance held in the student center, Saturday evening. May Day is a project of the Stu- dent Council, and we hope it will be held every year and become a very permanent part of life at Mansfiield.

During our stay at Mansfield we adopt North Hall as our home, thus we strive to make our dormitory resemble a home. If a group of people are to live together har- mcniously is is necessary to have rules. In the home Mother and Dad make those rules which they believe essential, while here at college the Women ' s Dormitory Council takes on that re- sponsibility. In the home we have learned that the cooperation of everyone is necessary, so it is here in North Hall. The Council strives, just as did your parents, to make your surroundings pleasant. The year 1943-1944 has been a happj ' one for most of us here in North Hall. He want to thank each of you who by your coopertion and interest have made this successful year possible.

Day Student ' s Club The Women ' s Day Student Club is composed of all the women students who do not live in the dormitory. All the women students whoi com- mute, or rent a room, or live in Mansfield auto- matically belong. Its purpose is to give those students an opportunity to become better ac- quainted with each other and to have fun to- gether. The 62 members may go at any time they wish to their room on the first floor of North Hall to rest, study, play cards or talk. Some of the social activities that linger in their memories are the picnics held at the begining and end of the school term, the teas and parties, and the monthly luncheons, particularly the one held at Christmas. Unfortunately, the war in- terrupted the joint luncheons with the men.

Seated: Read. EhinKer. Cawley, Elsbree, Col well. NANCY ROSS. Editor The Carontawan is your yearbook. Within its pages are pictured the memories of many of your happiest days. To some of you it will bring reminders of nights in the dorm after a big dance, working till the wee hours of the morning to complete a project, or studying for a test, initia- tions on the arcade, and student teachers dashing up the hill to their first class. This publication has many unique features. The athletic division is conspicuous by its ab- sence. There are very few pictures of men since there are very few men on campus. Then this is the first Carontawan ever to be published by a board composed entirely of women students. We realize the book is far from perfect. Gram- matical errors glare at you, there aren ' t many pictures, favoritism is prevalent, but at least we have a year book. The Carontawan board thanks each of you for your cooperation in helping us publish this book, and we hope you enjoy thumbing through the pages. ■ Joan Cawley, Senior Class Editor.

Due to this emergency the FlashUght has been operating under a new pohcy and this year was edited by co-editors. It was the chief aim of the Flash- light to promote interest in college activities and relate the campus events in such a way as to bring Mansfield just a little closer home for as many of our men and women in the service as it was possible to send copies of the Flashlight to them. -¥■ -¥■ -¥- SYLVIA BECK, Co-Editor BOTTIGER— Business Manager Music Educators ' Club Front Row: Chaffee.

Kappa Delta Pi Kappa Delta Pi, an honor society in education, limits its membership to juniors and seniors who have attained an excellence in scholarship. The purpose of Kappa Delta Pi is to encourage high intellectual and scho- lastic standards and to recognize outstanding contributions to education. Kappa Delta Pi grew out of the Illinois Education Club which was established at the University of Illinois in 1909 to recognize and encour- age high scholastic achievement and to dignify the teaching profession. In 1911 the Illinois Education Club was recognized as Kappa Delta Pi. The Beta Rho Chapter was installed at Mansfield in 1930 with Dr. Isaac Doughton as the sponsor. Dr Doughton has been the counselor ever since and the society has maintained a reputation of repute and worthy attainments under his guidance. The activities of the local chapter this year centered around a pro- gram devised to broaden the intellectual, the cultural and social interest of the members. K.

This year ' s Seniors v ill recall that outstanding events of the past four years ?.s being a closed formal dance dance in 41, a formal banquet in ' 42, a Winter Carnival in ' 43 and during this school year an Open House to fa- miliarize the students and community friends with departmental activities. These outstanding activities not only add meaning to classwork. but pre- pare the girls to meet similar situations in the establishment of their pro- fession. The long range plan and aims of Omicron Gamma Pi are the further- ance of better homemaking teacher activities and the establishment of better homes, both of which make for better and happier living.

This organization seeks as its object, the furtherance of scholarship and the development of lead- ership ataility among the students of the Homemaking Department. Mem- bership in the organization is limited to the upper 15 ' i of each class. Mem- bers must have attained a 2.3 average or better, and are eligible at the end of their Sophomore year. The Sorority selects its members on the basis of their ability to make and keep friends, leadership ability and other gen- eral high standards. The aim of every member in this organization is a greater understand- ing of the breadth and meaning of To be an efficient and well trained teacher and a confident and helpful homemaker. Each member pledges herself to make a worthy contribution to the profession of homemaking. The Sorority ' s sponsorship consists of two Homemaking faculty mem- bers, one of whom acts as sponsor and the other as co-sponsor. The year ' s programs are planned to increase appreciation of the fine things of life and to stimulate originality and creativeness. Members of the faculty and guest speakers aid the students in presenting these programs. A spe- cial research problem in the field of Homemaking is carried out each year by the Sorority members. Meetings are held each alternate month and a banquet and initiation of new members in May terminates the vear ' s activities. Front Row: Micheal. McHenry, Claii, Metzger, Pease. Hart, Rathburn.

A. has more purposeful mean- ing to its members on the Mansfield Campus than ever before. This organ- ization attempts to develop and promote Christian living in its spiritual, physical, mental, and moral phases through its work and fellowship to- gether. Our membership is on a voluntary basis and each member is given an opportunity to participate in one of the various programs during the year. This year our meetings have been unusually interesting and varied. They have consisted of plays, vesper services, choral readings, panel dis- cussions and outside speakers. Being a member of the Student Movement, we are better able to keep in contact with the work of other Christain or- ganizations in colleges throughout the country. The Y. W. C. A. has also sponsored social events which make for a better-rounded individual. Our hope for this year is that the work of the Y will so inspire its members that each may better carry out its purpose which is: To unite in a desire to realize full and creative life through a growing knowledge of God.

The Women ' s Athletic Association, under the direction of Miss Mor- ris, affords all the women students an opportunity to take part in various sports and recreational activities. The stimulation of whole-hearted good sportsmanship is but one of the goals toward which the Association aims. In this present emergency it is of utmost importnce to maintain good health at all times. It is also toward this end that the W. A. A. strives. This organization maintains a lively interest in the morale of the col- lege students. In all seasons throughout the year activities are carried on, some of them climaxed by tournaments. Swimming, tennis, hiking, soft- ball and out-door roller skating are the outstanding fall activities. During Association In the Bowling Alleys = the winter months, attention is focused upon basketball, table tennis, shuf- fleboard, bowling, badminton, volley-ball and indoor roller skating. The high point of the winter ' s activities is our annual sleigh-ride. Meetings are held every other month. This year they included a marshmallow roast, Hallowe ' en party, sports movie and other interesting activities. Each member who earns the required 200 points by participation in various activities is awarded a school letter in recognition of her accom- plishments. At the same time she is keeping physically fit to meet the problems of the post-war world. COLLEGE PLAYERS OFFICERS Ebinger, Vice President; Tobias. Secretary; Morrison, President; Casey, Treasurer, College Players The show must go on , so despite the apparent man power shortage at M. S. T. C, the College Players has en- joyed another highly successful year. During the first semester we presented a group of choral readings in an assembly program which was enthusiastically received by students and faculty alike. We hope to present a three-act play entitled Letters to Luzerne , using a cast composed entirely of women students as our main production for the second semester. It is not our purpose to develop professional actors, but rather to develop the literary and dramatic appreciation that lies latent in all of us. We wish to help prospective teachers correlate their abilities to the demands of educa- tion and life. The poise, confidence, and clarity of speech which we develop cannot be over-estimated. Our members are secured not only through the me- dium of competition try-outs held semi-annually, but also by presenting letters of application for make-up, costuming and directing.
