The school was self-supporting for the first two years of its existence. The first session was held during the summer of 1905, commencing June 11. The classes were held at the Central High School on Center and Jefferson streets and at the Springfield Normal School and Busi- ness College on Pickwick and Cherry. Students of normal or college rank met at the former place, and sub-normal or high school students met at the latter location. J. A. Taylor was business manager and C. E. Marston was director. The faculty was composed of members from the faculties of the Normal School, the city high school and Drury College. w. 'r. CARRINGTON The second summer term was held entirely at the old Normal building, and W. T. Carrington, state superintendent of schools, president-elect of the new institution, assumed active charge as president. With the beginning ofthe First fall term, 1907, the faculty members numbered 12, and the total enrollment was 173. On July 26, 1905, a number of citizens of Springfield donated to the state the forty-acre tract composing the present site of the school. August 10, 1907, the cornerstone was laid to Academic Hall, and the school was moved into its new and permanent quarters in January, 1909. In September, 1918, Clyde M. Hill succeeded W. T. Carrington as president. By an act of the General Assembly in January, 1919, the Normal School became Southwest Missouri State Teachers College. July 27, 1922, the corner stone was laid to the new Education Building and the new edifice was occupied in April, 1924. The cor- nerstone to the Science Building now under construction was laid May 1, 1925. The structure is to be occupied by October of this year. Thus, in the past twenty years, have we seen the phenom- enal growth of this future Uni- versity of the Ozarksf' The old Central High School building is OLD CHERRY STREET NORMAL if' I EDUCATION BUILDING still in service, now as the Senior High. The old Normal building was torn down in 1916. From the faculty of the old Normal there are three on the present teaching force of Teachers College, and of the first faculty of the new State Normal there are still four with us. We now have three large, beau- tiful, modern class-room buildingsq our faculty exceeds one hundred efficient and trained instructors, who are graduates from some of the leading colleges and universities in the United States, Ger- many, Hungary, and Franceg and our enrollment consists of more than three thousand intelligent and energetic young men and women, not only from the southwest district, but from all parts of the United States, from Mexico, France, Switzerland, and Hawaii. As we look backward over the footprints in the sand of time, we see the annals ofSouthwest Missouri State Teachers College richly emblazoned upon the history of education of Southwest Missouri, and as we look out across the untrampled sands of the future, we see on the not distant horizon a leader among leaders in the educational institutions of the time-our own beloved Southwest Missouri State Teachers College-a true mecca of learning, of guidance and of inspiration! 20 IN MEMORIAM 2 S i 4 WILLIAM H.

C. We soon became a class not to be looked down upon, for in athletics, oratory, and debates we shared honors with the upper classes. We added to our fame in our Sophomore and junior years, but our Senior year has been the very best year of all. We have added to our renown and fame in oratory, debating, and athletics. We have, in a measure, achieved success. To the Junior Class we leave our democracy and loyaltyg to the Sophomore Class, our wit and wis- domg and to the Freshman Class our singleness of purpose, and we charge them to remain steadfast in that purpose. Long may the memory of 1925 go with us and remain with us is our sincere wish. 51 FRANK ABHRNATHY Springfield, Mo. President, Commercial Boosters '25, Y. M. C. A.

In writing the history of the Freshman Class, there are many things to be taken into consideration, but only the most important may be mentioned. This Freshman Class, one of the largest ever to enter S. T. C., has accomplished a great many things during their first year of college life After a great deal of bull-dozing and bully-ragging from the illustrious Sophomores, the Freshmen started things off by taking practically all the contests from the Sophs at the picnic at Doling Park. The Freshmen always turned out in full force at all football games, backing the Bears in every game, besides placing four men on the team. During the Winter Term, the Freshmen pushed to the front in the inter-class oratorical contest' their lone representative tying for second honors. In basket ball, the Freshmen members of the squad always could be depended on to fight their very hardest at all times. Then in the inter-class debates the Freshmen practically wiped out the other classes by defeating the Sophomores, who defeated the Iuniorsg the Juniors then defeated the Seniors. Things equal to the same thing are equal to each otherg therefore the Freshmen were the victors in the inter-class debates. In the Spring Term, the Freshmen played their part in turning out another winning track team, although doing less here than in football. One Freshman also made the inter-school debate team. Many were in the Glee Clubs and in various other organizations of the school. The social activities of the Freshmen also deserve mention. The dances given by them were among the most successful of the school year. A great many things may be expected of the Freshmen if their first year may be taken as an indica- tion of what their next three will be. However, their accomplishments must be credited mainly to the painstaking zeal of their oFticers and to the loyal and cooperative spirit of the Freshmen themselves. 87 Jewell Alexander, Springfield Boy's Glec Club, Orchestra, Y.

From the very beginning athletic interests were not neglected. At that time girls' athletics meant as much to the school as boys'. The first year there were boys' and girls' basket ball teams during the winter months. In the fall and spring tennis was enjoyed. Baseball was very popular in the spring, too. At that time football was not developed at all. Mr. W. A. Daggett coached the boys in basket ball. It was necessary to practice and play the games in the Y. M. C. A. gymnasium. Among some of the opponents were Warrensburg Normal and Drury College. This year, 1909, Normal won the city basket ball championship by defeating Drury 37-17. Miss Park coached the girls, basket ball team. They had only interclass games and played in the Y. W. C. A. gymnasium. With baseball much enthusiasm was exhibited. Among our opponents were Arkansas University, Warrensburg Normal, and Drury College. A Tennis Association was also organized with about 50 students, and under the supervision of Professor Marston tennis became Very popular. This was the beginning of athletics in State Teachers College. Each year progress has been made. When the present coach, A. W. Briggs, came in the fall of 1912, he started in to build a real football machine. At first he did not have enough boys to make two teams. But year by year more boys became interested, and football has been developed into the most popular form of athletics at S. T. C. The War disrupted college athletics, and the effects were felt on the home field. Mr. Briggs came back from the service and again turned out twenty-four well trained men for the football field. It makes us realize the well-known fact that S. T. C. has one of the most efficient coaches of the middle west. It does not mean so much to the school that the boys are real players but that they are men, clean, straight, and strong, according to the standards of the coach, who has always stood for hard work and real sportsmanship. There are many outstanding games in the history of S. T. C. In the fall of 1915 the football team Started out splendidly, but Coach Briggs became ill. He had the team so thoroughly drilled that Captain Greer with the assistance of Danenhour completed the season with a victory over Drury. The game was on the Drury field. It was raining when the game started, and the ground was covered with water. The game was largely won through the energy and head work of the quarterback, Dan. The final score was Normal 154 Drury 7. Another game tha: should go down in history is the game between Missouri Wesleyan and S. T. C. in the fall of 1922, at Cameron, Missouri. The weather was ideal for football but the field was Very muddy. Both teams had been successful and everything depended on this game. School practically adjourned and a large number of loyal supporters went to the station to send the boys off. A number of boys bummed their way to Cameron, and at the game the Bear team had fourteen rooters. The score stood 6-0 in favor ofMissouri Wesleyan, but in the last five minutes of play Matthews passed to Hen- derson, which resulted in a touchdown. Then Cherry deliberately kicked goal-winning the game by a margin of one point. Theflinal score was: S. T. C. 7g Missouri Wesleyan 6. Paul Matthews was captain of the team. 97 Perhaps the most exciting game of all for us was the Turkey-Day game with Rolla in 1924. The football season had been very unsuccessful for the Bears, but the students still remained loyal to the team. Rolla came, expecting to walk away with S. T. C. However, Lady Luck smiled on S. T. C. and the game ended in a 10-7 victory for the Bears. This victory capped the season and made every S. T. C. student glad that he supported the leading school of southwest Missouri. During the few years ofour athletic development, Tea:hers College has won many championships. In the fall of 1922 S. T. C. held the State Championship in football. Paul Matthews was captain. The season opened by defeating Maryville Teachers, 33-6 on our Field and closed by defeating Drury, 28-O. The year 1917-when S. T. C. was the State Normal School-was a state championship year for the Bear basket ball team. The team secured the championship by winning 12 out of the 14 games played, and proved to be the best and fastest team in the state. Horace Robins was captain. The year 1924 was also a championship year for S. T. C. in basket ball. The team finished the season without a conference defeat. The record was the winning of thirteen out of fourteen games. Clyde James was the all-state captain. S. T. C. has held the track State championship for Hve consecutive years: 1921-22-23-24-25. In 1921 Paul Matthews was captain ofthe track team which turned out to be the first M. I. A. A. Champion- ship team. Herbert Collins was captain of the 1922 Bear squad. He was a consistent point winner in dashes and relays and did much toward winning the State Championship. In 1923 Max Cherry was captain of a Bear track team that won a triumphant victory. He showed himself to be one of the best men that ever entered a track meet. Under the leadership ofRaymond Lipe, the Bears finished another M. I. A. A. championship in 1924. This season was the first experience of the Bears with university teams, and they did very well. This year Ivan Hembree and his track men again brought the honors of a championship to S. T. C. The leadership of S. T. C. has greatly influenced athletics in southwest Missouri. A great per- centage ofthe coaches have received their training here under Mr. Briggs. The surrounding high schools look to S. T. C. for guidance in athletics. For fourteen years this college has held a southwest Missouri State High School Track Meet. Each year more teams are entered and more interest mani- fested. For the past six years a Southwest High School Basket Ball Tournament has been held. This, too, has grown larger each year. From these events S. T. C. draws many athletic stars. 98 COACHING STAFF ' A. W. BRIGGS. Athletic Director A. W. Briggs has been with us since 1912, and during that time he has made a fine record with his athletic teams. Coach Briggs is a graduate ofthe Y. M. C. A. College of Springfield, Massachusetts, and a graduate student of' Harvard. Besides coaching, Mr. Briggs has been president of the Missouri Intercollegiate Athletic Association for the past two years. He also directs the Christmas Play Festival, May Day Festival, and the various high school athletic tournaments held here. In one brief sentence: He is a valuable man to the schoolf' DONALD V. HOLWERTA. Coach Holwerta had charge of the basket ball team at Teachers College and put out a team that was a credit to the school. Holwerta is a graduate of Purdue University where he was a star guard on the university team. . HERBERT COLLINS. Coach Collins is a product of our own school. For four years Speedy was king ofthe dashes, and after his graduation he was given charge of all track work at Teachers College. The first year he put out a good team in spite ofthe loss of' several stars through graduation. Besides Coach Collins' work here, he has had training in the coaching school at the University of Illinois. 99 THE POWPR BEHIND THE TEAM S P R I N G F I E I D Sprmg FIELD' Fight em'F1ght emlF1ght em Xvlth the blewchers full of loyal boostmg, supporters and two such cheer le1ders as Schrnalhorst 'md Bradley the Bear Splflt never flflgs Th1s IS Schmwlhorst s second yefu- of servlce 'ts cheer leflder and Brwdley s second Ffuthfully and well chd they keep us ln umson 'md m tune The Be'1rs falways stud that our cheermg led them n The season of 1924 25 1S past one of the lessons learned IS the value of supportlng enthuslasncally any worthy cftuse or act1v1ty In the yewrs to come our thoughts w1ll often revert to the contests of th1s semson then mfty our hewrts 'agam gwe 1 cheer for Sprlngfleld 100 l f f ff - !, 1- , -W , ef-at-L. r Lgsy I ii f A ' ' , If a, 3 - I 9, , ,fi it 15' 1 .1 - v - , - 1 I 4 1 . 4 , I . . . , Y . , . 4 Q . 1 I . . 1 .

The Bears opened the season of 1924 with the strong St Louis Universit team Th h d . y . ey a our boys out-weighed considerably, but the Bears played so well that the Billikens were able to score but one touchdown and a safety, which gave them the game by the score of 8-0. ARKANSAS UNIVERSITY, OCTOBER 4.

The Bears proved to be a real hard luck team when they outplayed Warrensburg in all parts of the game, scoring 177 yards to the Mules' 24 in scrimmage, yet losing the game 7-O. Warrensburg intercepted a pass and scored the only touchdown. CAPE GIRARDEAU, OCTOBER 31. The hardest journey on the schedule was to Cape Girardeau. The boys were tired after a long trip, but they played a good game. Cape Girardeau scored a touchdown in the first part of the game. At the opening ofthe second half the Bears began smashing the line, and at the opening of the fourth quarter Thorn scored the Hrst touchdown for our team this season. This tied the score until two minutes before the game was over, when Cape Girardeau kicked a field goal and won the game 9-6. 103 LITTLE ROCK COLLEGE, NOVEMBER 7. Although the Bears out-played the Eagles it was another case where Lady Luckl' took a hand when a Little Rock player picked up a grounded kick and ran 85 yeards for a touchdown. Henderson and Jack Hilterbrand scored touchdowns for the Bears. Score 14-13. KIRKSVILLE, NOVEMBER 14. The Bears came into their own when they held the Kirksville teachers, rated as the strongest team in the conference, to a scoreless tie. Bud played his first game at quarterback and managed the team in good style. ROLLA, NOVEMBER 27. l Thanksgiving Day was the big day of the season for the Bears. Before a large home-coming crowd the Bears rose to the occasion and defeated the strong Rolla Miner team 13-10. This was a game that thrilled everyone. The first half ended with Rolla leading 10-6. Reynaud made a long run for the first touchdown. Nobody scored in the third quarter. A long pass from Henderson to Hilterbrand, in the last quarter, yielded the touchdown necessary for a Bear victory. Reynaud kicked goal. No more scoring was done and the game ended 13-10 in favor of the Bears. 104 LETTER MEN CAPT JOHN PHILLIPS played hrs last we1r wxth the Bears th1s season John plays end and was always nght there wlth the fight John welghs 160 pounds 'md halls from Mt Vernon EUGENE BURRE L made hls first letter 1n football th1s season Gene pl'1s ed halfback and always hxt the llne hard I-le h'uls from Mountam Vxew REX ARNEY played halfback Rexle was especially useful when It came to passmg or puntmg He wexghs 175 pounis 'md comes from Aurora JACK HILTERBRAND plays end He IS good at catchlng passes and plays defensxve hfmlfback A1rd'1le comes from Houston 105 E . 1 4' a - ' 5 . a - ' I. . 1 7 4 . 1 1 .

They won nine games and lost six. In the non-conference games, six were won, and one was lost. Of the conference games, three were won and ive lost. The Bears defeated some ofthe strongest teams in the state in their court battles, among them the William Jewell Cardinals, who won the championship this season. The ability of the Bear team is proved by their scoring 551 points to their opponents' 408. 111 T REVIEW OF THE SEASON ' OZARK WESLEYAN. The Bears opened the 1925 basket ball season with a decisive victory over Ozark Wesleyan College of Carthage, Missouri. This was easily won by the Bears with a score of seventy-Eve to eighteen. James scored thirty-four points. McKENDREE. McKendree College, from Lebanon, Illinois, defeated the Bears in their second game ofthe season by the score of thirty-eight to twenty-seven. This was one ofthe hardest games seen on the local court. It was a see-saw affair until the last few minutes when McKendree drew away and gained a lead that won the game. TARKIO. Tarkio was the next team to invade the Teachers College court and was easily taken into camp by the score of forty-eight to thirty-four. Quite a number ofsubstitutes got into the game and played well. KIRKSVILLE. On January 30 and 31, the Bears played their Hrst conference games with the Kirksville Teachers and succeeded in winning both games by safe scores. We were proud indeed ofthe two victories show- ing the scores Fifty-six to twenty-eight and thirty-nine to sixteen. WARRENSBURG. The Bears were halted in their march to the championship when they journeyed to Warrensburg and dropped two games to the strong Warrensburg Mules. The first game was thirty-two to Twenty- four and the second, forty-six to twenty-nine. The boys freely admitted that Warrensburg had a good team. WILLIAM JEWELL. William Jewell was next entertained on the Teachers College court, February 9, and succumbed to the Bear attack by the score ofthirty to nineteen. It was a much better game than the score indicates. The first half ended eleven to ten in our opponents' favor, but during the last half the Bears drew away and established a safe lead. 112 OZARK WESLEYAN. Teachers College defeated Ozark Wesleyan College February 10, by a heavy score. This was the Bears' second victory from the Yellow Jackets this season. Coach Holwerta used his entire list of reserves in the second half, and they continued to score regularly. ROLLA. The Bears took a fast, rough game from the Rolla Miners on the home court by the score of thirty- eight to twenty-four. The game was even at the start, but the Bears gradually took the lead and were never in danger of defeat. MARYVILLE. Maryville next played two games here and went home with one victory and one defeat. These were perhaps the most exciting games of the season. Maryville took the first victory with a forty-one to thirty-six score. In the second game, when the final whistle blew, the score stood thirty-one to thirty- one. In the live minute over-time the Bears gained a two point lead. ROLLA. In a return game played at Rolla the Bears took the Miners into camp for the second time this season. This time the score was thirty-five to sixteen. The Bears started the game with a rush and had a lead of twenty to eight at the end of the first half. The lead continued to grow and was never threatened. CAPE GIRARDEAU. Bear fans look back on the work of the nine letter men and the cubs with pride. A total score out numbering that of the opponents by one hundred forty-three points is proof of the Bears' prowess. 113 The season ended with two games played at Cape Girardeau, with the scores in favor of Cape.

On April 11 about ' h 'l , eig t o c ock the Bear squad piled in a bus and motored to Pittsburg. They arrived there about fifteen minutes before the meet and the score told the result-107 to 24 in favor of Pittsburg. It is necessary however to credit Pittsburg with a very strong team. ARKANSAS UNIVERSITY. The second meet of the season was with Arkansas Universityg it resulted in a 74 1f2 to 56 1f2 vic- tory for the Bears. It was a good day for a meet, but the crowd was small. This meet showed that the Bears had the stuff to put out. 118 ROLLA SCHOOL OF MINES O M 8 the Bears emerged victorious over their ancient rivals, the Rolla Miners. Of the sixteen n ay frrsts in the meet the Bears won fourteeng so it was truly a test of endurance. The competition was weak enough that every man who made the trip lettered.

The clubs and societies of S. T. C., the Alma Mater of hundreds of graduates, will be forever in the memory of its students. They have contributed much to the social life of the college and have led the intellectual part of school work beyond the classroom. The sentiment of the student body as a whole has always been against the introduction of sororities and fraternities. Therefore, at the present time the same democratic feeling and relation exist among students just as it did in 1906 when the college was founded. Following is a summary of the many organizations which have existed since the establishment of Teachers College. 1906-ln the First year of this college four leading organizations were formed. These were the Young Womenls Christian Association, the Young Men's Christian Association, the Carrington Literary Society, and the Bentonian Literary Society. Besides being the earliest ones, they also have been active the longest. Series of inter-society debates were outstanding in the activities of these clubs. 1907-The Southwest Alumni Association, which has meant so much to the graduates of our Alma Mater, was formed in this year. 1908-1909-No new clubs were formed in these two years, but the older ones were becoming firmly established. Two well known women of S. T. C. were coming into the public view. Mary Woods, student in 1909, debated and won on the question of woman suffrage. Bertha Wells was an outstand- ing member of the Bentonian Literary Society. The first Ozarko was printed, and the first oratorical contest was held in 1909. 1910-The Normal Dramatic Club was formed by the students in expression. Interest in the German language being very strong, students organized a club known as Der Deutsche Verein to foster spoken German outside the classroom. As attendance from counties was large, several county clubs made their appearance. These were from Webster, Wright, Barton, Polk, and Jasper counties. The Oklahoma State Club was also prominent in 1910. The Pickle Club led in comic action and pro- vided fun for its members, with the favorite drink, vinegar, and the club fruit, sour grapes. 1911-The first issue of the Soulhwest Standard made its appearance in 1911. Lovers of the game of tennis formed a Tennis Club and were very active on the courts. 1912-A Mathematics Club was organized by students who were specializing in this line of work. Myrtle Teter was a prominent student of this group. The Girls' Glee Club under the name of the Philomela Glee Club made its debut under the tutelage of Mrs. Cowan. 1913-The Scribhlers' Club was organized for the primary purpose of writing the Senior Class play. In this year the two N. D. C.'s combined into one organization. The Boys' Glee Club under the direc- tion of Mr. Kinsey was introduced in 1913 and was called the Swastika Glee Club. From the home economics department was organized a Home Economics Club to advance the art of this work. 1914-The Emersonian Literary Society was added to the other two literary clubs during this year. Competition between the literary clubs continued strong throughout their history. 1916-Realizing the need for a larger musical unit than the Glee Club, the music department sponsored the formation of a Choral Club to supplement the work already carried on in music. 127 1917-A Red Cross chapter was installed with the beginning ofthe War in order that the college girls might render helpful service. At this time the German Club was dissolved and the teaching of German discontinued. To help in school activities was an aim ofthe Booster Club which later led to student government. Two comic groups were outstanding during the year. These were the A. O. O. E., known as the Ancient Order of Egotists, and the other one was known by the simple title ofBonehead Club. 1919-1920-Le Cercle Francais was begun to give students an opportunity to speak French with- out the necessary classroom restrictions. The Student Council grew out of the Booster Club and was given recognition by the faculty as a form ofstudent government. The Story Telling Service Club was organized to train its members in the art ot' storytelling and to train them to be of practical use in the community. 1921-To further the speaking of Spanish, La Tertulia was formed by the advanced students of the Spanish language. The S Men's Club was established by the letter men in athletics with the object to promote athletics at the Southwest Missouri State Teachers College and to further the interest of the college. 1922-For the purpose of supporting athletic activities, the Key and Dagger Club was recognized by the school during 1922 after it had changed from the name of Knights ofthe Road which it held in 1921. 1923-The Omicron Club was formed as an honorary organization only for those students who have represented S. T. C. in forensic activities. For social activities the library force united and organized a Library Club, without books. F. o' A. Guild was formed for the general purpose of advanc- ing art. In this year English students organized an English Club to promote literary interests outside the classroom. 1924-The Polity Club began its activity during 1924 to forward the work of social sciences. To promote interest in country life in the Ozark region was the purpose of organizing the Country Life Club. Commercial Boosters also started work during this year. Students of expression again banded together to make a play-giving Dramatic Club. 1925-An Ensemble, two pianos, eight hands, has made its appearance under the direction of Mrs. Kinsey. It is composed only ofsenior music students of piano. Two pep groups have been organ- ized to support college athletics. The boys organized as Royal Rooters, while the girls united as Growl- ing Grizzlies. A new club has come into existence under the title of Honorary Home Economics Club. Only those with 15 hours credit and with an S average in home economics are eligible for membership. The organization movement at Teachers College has had a steady development. The tendency has been to unite students of common social and professional interests and to extend further the work of the class room. 128 7.........q- l I E. DAVIS PHILLIPS BOTTS WOODY O.

The Southwest Standard is the official publication of Southwest Missouri State Teachers College at Springfield. Starting as a monthly thirteen years ago, our paper is now an approved weekly, destined, some time, to be issued daily from our own printing plant. Uncensored by the faculty and with its columns open to all alike, the democratic Standard is truly the fearless mouth-piece of the student body, fighting for Things Eternal. The editor knows most of the students and members of the faculty, personally, and is the confidant of each. Because of the stringent requirements as to chara t d b' ' . c er an a ility, staff membership is a coveted honor and an' opportunit . E h ' y ac year, members of the Standard Family become leaders in the world beyond the campus. ' The Standard exemplifies the Americanism of Lincoln, Roosevelt and Wilson and preaches th G . . e ospel of Christ, the Savior of the World. Servire If The Sefre!

The Freshman-Sophomore debate inaugurated the series and was a battle, fought chiefly with words and other soft missiles, from the beginning. Perhaps the conflict waxed the more furious because there was one of the feminine persuasion on each sideg at any rate we can give them much of the credit for maintaining the intensity of interest and feeling throughout the debate. The question became more of a personal issue when the lady of the negative demanded of the gentleman of the aHirm- ative whether he would consider marrying into the class of persons under discussiong the latter refused to answer such a personal question in public. Then ensued an even fiercer struggle. Ultimately the smoke of battle cleared away showing the glowing victorio us Freshmen standing over the prostrate and defeated Sophomores. 135 ROBINSON REITZ BARNETT MILLER INTE R-CLASS DEBA TES JUNIOR-SOPHOMORE DEBATE.

In fact, the speakers became at times so deep that the audience was unable to detect the existence of their logic. There were no ladies in this contest, so the debaters naturally kept cooler,-that is, with one or two exceptions. Judging from the frequency with which Henry Reitz had recourse to his handkerchief for the purpose of mopping his fevered brow, he must have become quite overheated. However, he managed to survive the ordeal by frequently resorting to the water pitcher. His colleague distinguished himself by the vehemence of his appeal and by the remarkable aptltude and originality he displayed in manipulating his limbs.

Armed with congressional reports and statistics, the Juniors and Seniors met on the last night of the series to confer on measures of legislative reform. It was with clear cold logic that the sedate Seniors supported their progressive proposition to override the Supreme Court. Logic and dignity gave way, however, before the sparkling shafts of wit and sarcasm which the Juniors leveled at so rash a proposal. The Juniors won the decisionq the sanctity of the Supreme Court was preserved. 137 FISHER MILLER INTER COLLEGE DEBATE Mm 8 1925 Questzon RESOLVED That Congress should be empowered to overmde by '1 two thrrds vo e dec1s1ons ofthe Supreme Court that declftre 'lcts of Congress unconstltuuoml MARYVILLE VS SPRINGFIELD At Cwpe Glmrdeftu Ajfrmanve Negatzve R1chard Baker Ira Flsher Burdette Yeo Cly de M1ller Daemon In favor of the Neg1t1ve MaYYV1llC and Sprmgfield Both M1ller 'md F1sher are new men 1n forensxc work, but from the t1me of their vlctorles ln the mter cl'1ss debates, they worked cons1stently, wlth the mter school debate ln v1ew Thelr v1ctory w'1s not 1 surprlse to us, for then- clear org1n1z1t1on and knowledge ofthe subject, together wlth forceful dehvery 'md pleasing person1lt1es m1de lf poss1ble for them successfully to meet every 'lrgument 1dv'1nced by the Afhrmatlve 138 , , ' : ' . - ' t ' ' . . . .

Mr. Botts has represented this h h l school in debating for three consecutive years. Mr. Nyberg has had much experience as a hig sc oo debater. These two constituted as strong a team as S. T. C. has ever sent to an mter-school contest. Their defeat was not clue to any lack of preparation or ability as each man did his best. Although ' ' l h ld not this is the first time in many years that S. T. C. has been defeated in debate, we fee t at we cou have chosen a stronger team for this contest. 139 I l l I sf- STATE ORINORICAL CONTEST The biggest forensic event of the year was the State Oratorical Contest held here on March 20. Aaron Botts, the winner of the inter-class contest, met representatives from Maryville and Cape Girardeau to compete for the state honors in oratory. Aaron's oration, The Most Lawless Nation, was a stirring appeal against the prevalence of crime in America. It was delivered with the earnest conviction and sincerit which mark Aaron's manner ofs eakin . Ca e Girardeau went home with the Y P S' I3 victory, but the contest left us with strengthened pride in our speaker. This is Aaron's third year in forensic activities at Teachers College. 140 l l i COMMENCE1WENT SPEAKERS The two students selected to represent the senior class on the commencement program are indeed deserving of the honor. Miss Helen Holladay has been a leader in the Y. W. C. A., has worked on the Standard and the b Ozarko staffs, has been an enthusiastic member of a number of organizations, and a class de ater. She has also been a student assistant in Spanish during her senior year. In scholarship she ranks high. But the best qualities ofHelen are her exuberant spirits, her genuine friendliness, and her loyal, enthusias- tic support of every worthy college activity. ' Mr. John Taylor is the youngest member of the senior class, being only twenty years of age. He entered Greenwood in the first grade and has continued his entire education in this institution. His high school and college courses have been completed in six years. Mr. Taylor is planning to continue his studies for some years, preparatory to entering the ministry. l fA d e. I Both are a credit to Teachers College. Both these young people receive the Bache or o rts egre The senior class is proud of them. 141 POLIT2' CL UB The Polity Cluh has a membership of students interested in social sciences. The movement for this organization was begun November 1, 1923. The constitution committee reported in December, and an election of oiiicers was held in January, 1924. Those elected were as follows: President, Russel Baugh, vice-president, George Wattlesg secretary, Ruth Coifmang treasurer, E. E. Neelyg parliamen- tarian, Fred McKinleyg and mascot, Marjorie June Neely. The club is a hard-working group whose purpose is to promote interest in the social sciences. The meetings held semi-monthly consist oflectures and discussions of current topics. This is one of the largest organizations in school, having a member- ship of more than sixty. OFFICERS. E. E.

Hence in 1923 an organization was formed to supplement English courses by extension into literary fields which the class room does not touch. Miss Mary Davis of the faculty and Misses Ruby Van Trump and Eulalie Powell were the founders of the club and largely determined its excellent character. Miss Davis has been sponsor of the club except during a leave of absence in the fall term this year. Miss Mary Woods filled her place and helped the club make a good start for the year. ' Membership in the English Club has grown from ten to sixty. Every effort is made to keep high standards in both membership and programs. All teachers in the English department are honorary members. . The interests of the English Club this year have been centered in the study ofpresent day writers. Both faculty members and students have provided programs. These were not limited to literary sub- jects, as some of the most profitable meetings were devoted to music, art, expression, and lectures on foreign countries. Nor must the social side be forgotteng literature has been found to blend well with parties and picnics. OFFICERS. IRVIN PEARMAN, President. MARY HENDERsoN, Vife-President.

The membership of this club is represented by three departments: agriculture, home economics and rural life. The object of the club is to promote interest in the departments repre- sented: in the fellowship of the studentsg in the activities of the schoolg and in country life in the Ozark Region. Realizing that progress is based fundamentally upon practical education, we, the Country Life Club, intend as our ultimate aim to be a real factor in the development of our school and of Southwest Missouri. In carrying out our purpose we observed April 26, 1925, as Dairy Day. This event proved to be very successful. As an organized body we put over the election of the lirst Dandelion Queen. Through discussion and lectures we have aroused an interest in solving the leading problems of rural communities of the Ozark Region. It is the intention ot the club to carry out many projects in the future. OF FI CERS. OLAF BALDWIN, President. PAUL C. POTTER, Vice-Presidenf. CARRIE HANKINS, Secrelary. LAUREDA ADAMS, Treasurer. L.

The last year and a halfhas meant more to the club than any other period ofits existence. In the spring of 1922 the club was awarded school recognition, one ofthe biggest events in the life of the club. During the same term the club obtained a house which served to bind the fellows more closel Y together. Mrs. R. G. Richardson became our House Mother.

Ever since its organization it has been one of the most potent influences for good in the school. From year to year the number of devoutly interested workers has steadily increased, thus forming a nucleus from which the organization has prospects of much greater development. The purpose of the Young Menls Christian Association has been to unite the stud f h c ents o t e college in the maintenance ofa positive moral and religious atmosphere, to lead them to become disciples of Jesus Christ, to unite them in loyal support for the advancement of the kingdom of God, and to bring them into closer touch with the religious movements of their communities and of the entire world. This organization has been important socially as well as religiously. Various receptions have been given from year to year that add much social entertainment to the regular social activities of the school. Financial aid has been secured through membership fees, sales of various sorts and donations from sympathetic believers in the organization. This money has been used for sending delegates to the various conferences which are held in the state each year and for other current expenses. But by far the most important phase of the work has been the devotional services held each week. These programs have been an assorted group, which has added much to their attraction and to the interest of the students. They have never failed to attract many visitors. The results of the organization in recent years have been very gratifying. Lives have been touched, standards have been raised and th Ch ' ' ' ' ' , e ristian associations have established themselves very firmly in the student life.

The Young Women's Christian Association was organized October 2, 1906, with twenty-two charter members. lt is one ofthe two organizations that have existed since the college was founded, and during this entire period of its existence, nineteen years, it has helped materially in the develop- ment ofthe many fine young women, who have attended school at S. T. C. The noble purpose of the organization, Every girl for Christ, has remained unchanged through- out its existence. The Association has striven to provide the third side of the triangle,-intellectual, social, and spiritual development-which should be the ideal of every college girl. The campus problem was the theme of this year's work. The organization has tried to win every irl for Christ and speakers from Springfield and visitors of state and national renown have carried out S a this idea in their messages to the Young Women's Christian Association.

In 1923 a new plan was adopted. In that year a number of students and faculty members formed an honorary organiza- tion known as the Omicron. Anyone is eligible for membership who has represented the school in debate, oratory, or extempore speaking. Each member is presented by the college with a gold pin. Stu- dents who have won Omicron honors this year are Ira Fisher, Leo Nyberg, and Clyde Miller. Aaron Botts, the only other Omicron member in the student body, won membership in 1923.

A Marionette production, East O' the Sun and West O' the Moon, given by members ofthe Guild met with success first at Teachers College and later for two nights at theiLittle Theater in Spring- field, whose manager, Mr. Joseph Peelt, was enthusiastic in his praise of both marionettes and puppeteers. Two lectures on art subjects, one on Civic Art, the other on Flemish Art were sponsored by this organization. The President, Mrs. H. A. Wise, Miss Deborah Weisel, and members ofthe Guild have tried to undertake and encourage art projects which will be interesting to the College and to the com- munity. 157 STANLEY WILLIAMS BOTTS GOFF TEMPLE MORRIS NICKEL HILLHOUSE MASSEY HAYMES RILEY BOALS LEFLER GADDIE LE CERCLE FRANCAIS OFFICERS.

The aim of the organization is to create a better understanding of France, her language, and her civilization, and to offer the student an opportunity to speak French without the classroom restrictions. The purpose ofthe club is serious, yet the meetings are very entertaining. The membership has increased steadily from ten to twenty-five, although the membership requirement has been raised to restrict the number to a working unit. 158 - MURREY VANCIL WILLIAMS T.

That this ideal might be ever before us, the staH: made an effort to secure the love- liest girls in college to adorn these pages and to typify the beauty which we hoped to impart to the 1925 Ozzzrko. Each college class selected three candidates, judging them on beauty alone. ln a general election one girl was chosen from these three as queen of her class. Photographs of the four girls were then sent to James Montgomery Flagg, who selected the Ozmfko Queen. R i 1 Y Ak: 4 , WY --..--.-mann: H i i i mum-...-....... ....,, ! 1 ---...H-ug.

This ear th d ' O y e ay was ctober 16, and the scene of the outing was Doling Park, where the oHicials did everything that might make the enjoyment of the day complete. Special cars with college banners and decorations carried us to the park. The college band and school songs and yells made it evident along the route that the Bears were out for the day. At the park, everyone found some form of amusement. Skating, dancing, and boating had charms for many. The teeter-totters were l ' h h popu ar wit t e seniors. Though the air held the crispness of October, a few venturesome ones went swimming. Here and there lone couples sought the shady, quiet solitude of the lake shore. It was whispered around that, upon the hill side, the entire faculty ' h wit a few student assistants toiled through the entire morning folding boxes and preparin lunch. g Anyhow, when the mess call sounded and the two long lines stretching over the hill and out of sight filed by, each individual received a box with the most appetizing contents, a cup of steaming coffee, and bricks of ice cream. Silence settled for a while over the shady hill side. Never was there such a lunchq never was there a more happy, friendly crowd rejoicing in the congeniality of college life. In thefafternoon the baseball field was the scene of combats between the under-class men. Both sophomores and-freshmen, spurred on by the cheers of the feminine portion of their classes, won honors in such fearful contests as rag-pulling, boxing, sack races and three-legged races. So the day passed. Once more we boarded the street cars, and though not quite so noisy and jubilant as in the morning, neverthelesslwe went home happy. Q 192 L HOME-COMING BANQ UET The home-coming banquet on Thanksgiving evening is one of the established traditions of S. T. C. It first was held at the Barnard farm where a small group of loyal Bears met -to talk over the football season. The home-coming banquet grew so large that it was necessary to hold it at the school. The ' Th 1924-25 home-coming will long be remembered as one of the most enjoyable events of the year. e Bears had ended a rather discouraging season by defeating the Rolla Miners, one of the strongest teams played. Is it any wonder that everyone was in a holiday mood? The old gymnasium where the banquet was held was attractively decorated with the emblems of the season and with Hower trellises. The banquet itself was all that could be desired-turkey, cran- berries, and all the fixings! The radio program that followed was unique and clever and thoroughly ' ' f b d- appreciated by the audience. It was particularly appreciated because we were able to see the roa casters after they had performed. President Hill was the Voice at station S. T. C. and Heavy Henderson was the Radio Bug. The program was as follows: Market Report, Mr. Sam Trimble. Weather Report, Miss Katherine Harrison. 1924 Football season, John Phillips. Up in the Air, Aaron Botts. Forecast, Coach A. W. Briggs. College songs and yells by everyone added much to the gayety of the evening. 193 l i I T HE CHRISTMJS CANDLE One of the most beautiful, effective and sacred of our institutions is that of the Christmas candle. F g e can e a week before the Christmas holidays. For seven days this candle, with its appropriate decorations, stands on its pedestal on the stage of the auditorium, glowing its silent message to each passerby. or many years it has been the custom for the president of the Senior Class to li ht th dl On the seventh day, in an assembly of the entire student body, Greenwood, and the friends of the C ll ' ' ' ' 0 ege, the simple rite, which has become dear to our college, is held. On this day, the president of the Senior class extinguishes the Hame, and with an appropriate charge, gives the candle to the president of the Junior Class, who accepts his charge, and promises to guard the candle until its flame shall have lit the candle ol the coming Christmas. Then the candle is kept and cherished with those of the pre- ceding years. This ceremony signifies that as each class passes from these doors out into the fields of life its J memory and influence will remain as constant and clear as the flame of the Christmas candle. The custom i - S the German and Celtic tribes the winter solstice was considered an important point of the year. At this time a number of the strongest from each tribe went into the forests to secure the biggest and best logs. There was a ceremony for the lighting of these, and during their burning there was much feasting and merry making, lasting day and night as long as the logs burned. A piece of a log was kept to light the Yule logs of the coming season. s one taken from the old German institution of the lighting of the Yule logs Amon Our custom of the lighting of the candle as shown by this has not onl endured f r th y o e years we have had it here, but it has endured for ages, being handed down from German and Celtic tribes from time immemorable. But while their Yule log lighting was one of feasting and merry making, our candle li ht' ht b ' ' ' g ing as ecome sacred, in affording a shrine where each of us may ascend from ourselves in the glory and purity of its message. 194 l SCIENCE HALL The State appropriation for the new Science Hall was made in 1924 under the administration ot k Governor Arthur M. Hyde. On October 1, the ground was broken for the new building. The wor moved steadily forward. , . On May 1, 1925, was held the impressive ceremony of laying the corner stone. The program was arranged and carried out by the Grand Lodge A. F. and A. M. 0fM1SSOUf1, with Deputy State Grand Master,'W. W. Martin, oiiciating. The rites of the occasion were performed by lodge oficials. Ignace Glaser, president of the College Board of Regents, introduced E. E. E. Mcflimsey, who delivered an inspiring address. In the heart of the corner stone of the Science Building were deposited a Bible, a 1924 Ozarko, a Southwen Standard for April 30, an April 30 issue of the Springfield Leader, a May 1 issue of the Spring- field Republican, a directory of the college students, silver coins of 1924, a college catalogue, a picture of the new Science Building while under construction, a photograph of the superintendent of construc- tion, and photographs of faculty members' infants born during the period of construction. What a story these things will tell if ever they are brought from their resting place. It would be hard to give an exact estimate of the pleasure and pride which both students and b h re is undoubtedly in the heart of everyone a faculty members of S. T. C. took in the ceremony, ut t e deep and sincere desire that the new building shall be followed by others and that our college shall continue to grow as it has grown in the past. May this third building on the Campus, Science Hall, ' h h d be but a herald of continued prosperity for this institution as it expands in accordance wit t e nee s of the Southwest. 195 M- T HE Mar FESTIVAL May Queen.- Violet Haverly.

It was a beautiful May day. The south-east section of the campus was for th ii ' h ' . e rst time t e setting for the pageant. Spacious shady grounds with the immense throne and the yellow moon in the distance afforded an id l ' ' ' ea setting. In such surroundings no one in the vast audience co ld f 'l ' u al to imagine him- self a participant in the beautiful pageant, A Trip to the Moon.

Hubert Stem, TRUMAN RADL The Ozezrko play has come to be one of the leading dramatic events at Teachers College. Clarenee, a delightful comedy by Booth Tarkington, was selected this year and presented by a cast from the school at large. Miss Hyatt, as director of the play, added another triumph to her long list of good productions. The plot of Clarenee develops from the difficulties which a tired business man has in his family life. However, Clarence, a returned soldier who can drive mules without swearing, gradually brings the family to a state of serene blessedness. No one who saw Ralph Husted play this part need fear for his future domestic bliss. Mildred Bradley and Picque Huston played brother and sister in such a realistic manner that we forgot they were merely acting. Mrs. Reese was always right. Ralph McPherson filled his place as head of his unruly family as if from habit. The difliculties of a second wife and step-mother were endured, with shrieks and tears, by Edith Bradley. Margaret Tippin, the ' ' ' ' h.

There is even a reason for selecting the lowly cockle bur as the emblem of this humor section, and this is it. The cockle bur holds an important place in the history of the Ozark region. It was the first denizen of the fields to bloom and blossom after the lava had cooled in the valleys, and it has stuck to us ever since. Corn crops fail and the bean crop famishes in the fields but the cockle bur grows on forever. It has played an important part in the development of S. T. C., for it has caused many young men to forsake the farm for college careers. Lost in the midst of the cockle bur patch on a hot summer day, many of our now distinguished college intellects first thought upon the lives of great men and swore solemn oaths with their hands on the hoe handle that they would go and do likewise. Because of the important part it has played in the history of the Ozark region and of S. T. C. as well as because ofthe typical Ozarkian qualities of constancy and conquest which it represents, the cockle bur has been chosen as the popular perennial of this particular part of this publication. DEDICATION Not all of it is work and worry, or exams, or bibliographies, or twenty-five hundred word themes, or oral compositions, or reports, or grades, or etc. Much of it is fun and frolic, delightful companion- ship, youth, sunny smiles and care free laughter. It is to this sunny side of our college life and to the memory of these happy moments that the Ozarko Cockle Bur is dedicated. 201 CAMP US BEAUTIFUL - ,' i i GQSAH nf l R 1 7 7 M 5 kd mf? j1iH, .H1 Ei, ,six WW' i fxV+ 4143?

It has played an important part in shaping the destiny of many a noble knight. Here hearts have been lost and broken and patched, so they say. South view of the House of Power. This splendid building is a beautiful type of Babylonian architecture with windows of smoked glass and walls of mud-brown brick frescoed with anthracite and bituminous. Tower of Aqua Puran said to be a cross between Eiffels Tower and a Fourth-of-july skyrocket. The frieze is beautifully decorated with portraits of college heroes painted by the masterly hand of a very anonymous painter. The Hall of Babel is so named because of the conglomeration of voices and confusion of tongues that can be heard there almost any hour in the day. Some say that it is music, and perhaps it is. Festal Hall situated just off the campus on Kingshighway and Lombard is famous in college history. It has been the scene of many elaborate Potato-Chip and Coca Cola banquets and has been the headquarters for many well-known Chewing Gum Quartets. The Tower of Ephemeral Gases has some unusual characteristics not found in any other college structure in the world. Although it is a round tower it has two sides, inside and outside, and it has been found by careful measurements that its height exactly equals its altitude and that its circumferenc: exceeds its diameter by several feet. Hess's Temple is a relic of the days of old and was designed by that dashing cavalier, Doc Hess of Dry Knob. This picturesque structure is known in college legends as the Ultinerant Temple for it is said that it wanders about over the campus looking for a permanent location. This splendid edifice was erected by our own famous architect, McCartney, and is known as McCartney Hallfl Its artistic beauty and completeness in every architectural detail has been in the past a source of inspiration to many of our artistically and poetically inclined students. It is with deep regret that we find that it is now being used as a store house for potatoes. 203 x .

Now, the husbandman was greatly pleased with the accomplish- ment of his offspring. ' As the ninth month approached the husbandman called to his son saying: My son, draw nigh, I would have speech with youf' And the young man listened to his father. This said the father: Son, you are pleasing in my sight. Lo! you have com- pleted the village high school. Methinks I will send you to Springfield to the great Temple of Knowledge that you may sit at the feet of the wise men and women and learn of them. Therefore, my son, gird yourself in your best raimentf, Straightway the young man arose, packed the family trunk and departed for the station in his father's trusty Hivver. After many hours the young man arrived at the Temple of Learning in the city of Springfield. Now, the wise men of the temple admonished the young man to schedule for a heavy course. Being a stranger in the land he heeded their advice and was given a list of subjects which involved much trial. When the young man beheld his schedule he was sorrowful. And he said, I will arise and go to my father. Now, it came to pass as he was about to leave the temple by the west gate he met a group of young men. Noting that he was bowed down with grief they comforted him, saying: Be of good cheer. Your schedule is not heavier than you can bear. Behold us! We neither study nor toil, yet Solomon in all his wisdom could not make better grades than we. 210 ., L . .X X all-E Fr. as 0 lt 'lf ' fig 4 ...I- . - s XL v uk, 1 'I '-fl. I- gf Q 'ir rg M fi if ll 1 ELC lb' v 0 I :4 ! S TFTE5 And the young man lifted up his face and rejoiced. And he spoke unto the young men, saying: Your courses shall be my courses, and your teachers my teachers. So the young man anointed his head with oil that his hair might stick down hard and fast. It came to pass that the wise men and women of the temple worked diligently that the young man might acquire knowledge. To show his appreciation of their efforts he straightway cut a class. The young man soon became accustomed to life in the temple. He chose the teachers whose courses were easy and whose teaching was light. His life was one of ease and contentment. Some- times he attended assembly where a strange man, whom he seldom saw, admonished the young men and women to devote themselves to much study. But it was a voice crying in the wilderness, for the young man heeded it not. - After many days the young man returned to his father's house. Now, the father marveled at his son. For the young man could send cigarette smoke forth from his nostrils. He slept during the day and wandered about at night. And the boy's mother spoke unto her son, saying: Son, did you spend much time in the study hall? And the young man answered his mother, saying: Surely, mother, you speak foolishness. There isgno study hall at the temple. There are class rooms, where I sometimes went. There is an auditorium where I found many pleasant companions. There is a campus where I spent much time and there is a gym where I danced, but surely, mother, I heard nothing of a study hall. And the mother, loving her son, pressed him no more questions.

We feel that the following description of the spring football team as given in the STANDARD for April 2:can not be improved in any way by us and we are reproducing it here as a part of our history-O. C. B. Half-back, Clark Carson, from all appearances, will force Reynaud and Cherry to take a back seat in S. T. C. football, Roy Buren, as full-back, expects to make people sit up and take noticeg R. V. Swanson as quarter-back thrills the entire crowd, both friends and enemies, with his signals, and brilliant plays. The other back field man is Patton, one of our fastest broken-field runners. Our strapping center, Ted Richmond, starts the game with a pep that means victory. Norton Cummins and Levi Miller, our smashing guards, make a strong line. The Pearman twins, Walter at left and Irvin at right tackle are valuable assets to the team. Our ends, Watt Cowen and Carleton Worth, are well known throughout the Middle West. nThis wonderful team and the entire student body owes much to the coach, Professor Russel Baugh, a former star football man of S. T. C. TRACK HEROES. Samuel Rule from Burdock, Missouri, is a husky lad, being six feet three and weighing 132 pounds. Sleeping Sampson has made more letters than any other member of the squad. He has never had any trouble in making his letters since he began to take typewriting. Olaf Acorn is a valuable asset to the team. Olee is from Punkin' Center and is five feet four inches high and weighs three hundred pounds when he is in his traveling togs. He has probably won more Hrsts than any other single member of the team. He is usually the first to start, the first to fall down, and the first to get in last. Billy Bump is one of the new recruits who has made good during the past season. He made the 100 yards in 7.3 but the record was not allowed to stand since there was a strong wind blowing at the time. Bones,' will be back strong next year. 212 ORGANIZATIONS Note: The COCKLE BUR reporter has made first hand observation of these organizations and begs to submit this report for the benefit alike of contemporaries and posterity. THE ENGLISH CLUB. The aim of this organization as set forth in its constitution is to preform a mishion of profiit, plesure, and servise fer S. T. C. Any- one who has aworking knowledge of Woolley and who can quote verbatim et literatim Palmer's Self-Cultivation in English is eligible for membership. 1 ozARKo STAFF. l The purpose of this organization is to com- pile each year a history of S. T. C. as she was that year. They tell me that this is a very easy job requiring very little time and study. This year in order to, have a little more work they have included with the history of S. T. C. a history of the whole Ozark region from the time of the Flood down to the last day of the Summer Term. They still find time hanging heavily on their hands and plan next year to include also a history of the U. S. and of Foreign Parts. STANDARD STAFF. All they have to do is to publish the Stand- ard once a week. Their ambition is to have a suite of office rooms and to publish a fifty- four page aDaily Standard with extra and Sun- day editions together with a monthly Stand- ard Magazine of 200 pages. S CLUB. A very serious minded group of young men and rather shy. They never have dates with the women. POLITY CLUB. This club is composed of the future governors of Missouri and presidents of the United States. To become a member, one must have survived ten hours of social science, must be a future governor or president, and must have a quarter. COUNTRY LIFE CLUB. Reubens and Rachels of S. T. C. Each one has a definite plan for saving the country community. Y. M. C. A. A group of fellows who have hitched their wagon to a star and have taken the Moon for their leader. Y. W. C. A. There is no joke about this organization. OMICRON. Silver-tongued spell-binders of S. T. C. LE CERCLE FRANCIAS A part of the foreign element. LA TERTULIA. Senoritas y senores quien hablan espanol. STORY-TELLING CLUB. They practice pagan rites and believeiin spooks and elves and fairies and gnomes. F. O. A. GUILD. Raphaelites and Michelangelonians. PRE-MEDICS.

This club cooperates with the Frisco to reduce passenger rates when our athletes invade foreign territory. They have a unique system of initiation that is greatly enjoyed by all pledges entering the organization. i.1-1+ THE COCKLE BUR QUEEN Following the example of college annuals, the COCKLE BUR has selected a queen. The first matter to be considered was the basis of selection. It was desired that the selection should not be based on such indefinite terms as beauty or popularityg so after much casting about we decided that the Cake should be given to the most Fetching Young Lady. You see this was a plain term which anyone could understand. Everyone was admitted to the contest on his Student Activity Ticket and everyone had five votes which could all be cast for any one contestant or divided among Five contestants. The plan was for every contestant to be her own Publicity Agent and Campaign Manager, but early in the contest, the admirers of Miss Sally Stump perfected an organization and held enthusiastic meetings. This was followed by organizations for Miss Olive Oil, Miss Dolly Dimple, Miss Ava Aspirin, and Miss Curly Que. The campaign was a very lively one. One of the followers of Miss Stump made a Stump Speech in which he charged that Miss Aspirin had slapped her grandma and that Miss Dimple chewed a cheap brand of chewing gum. The followers of Miss Aspirin and Miss Dimple retaliated by accusing Miss Stump of drinking Bulgarian Buttermilk. Miss Olive Oil accused Miss Que of being a Sophisticated Simpletonf' and Miss Que in reply charged that Miss Oil picked her teeth with a hairpin at the Thanksgiving Banquet. There were so many charges of bribery, vote buying, and steam roller methods that the election had to be called off. It was decided then to send the pictures of the five contestants to Gap Johnson of Rumpus Ridge, Arkansas, and ask him to select the Queen. He selected Miss Stump with the following comment: Her face poseses a expreshion uv oblivion thet reminds me so mutch uv mi forth wife merry ann. 214 KOCKLE BUR KALENDAR Being zz Rerord of Important Evenls Occurrence: and flrczdentr During the Year 1924 1925 SEPTEMBER AND OCTOBER School starts off 1n the usual way Sen1ors begm the arduous task of c1v1l1z1ng the Frosh element Prof Kelley erects 350 slgns on the campus as an 1mpress1ve warnmg to would be trespassers Dr H111 requests the Freshmen to leave the1r cob p1pes at home Chester Po1ndexter IS expelled from the study hall and takes up headquarters 1n the aud1tor1um NOVEMBER AND DECEMBER Cyclone Tol11ver reg1sters for fall term Freshmen pass a resolut1on to study lessons and eat meals standmg up S T C students rece1ve 'ln unexpected V1Slf from a delegat1on of North SldCfS Rolla M1ners come and go They d1d the1r best but just couldn t w1n DECEMBER AND JANUARY Forens1cs to the front Oratory the order of the day The natlon IS saved 1ga1n The OZARKO staff announces that all p1ctures must be 1n by Chr1stmas Chr1stm1s comes on the 25th of December as usual and the weary students homeward plod the1r weary way School 'assembles after v'1cat1on Many students a day or two late because of toothaches and OZARKO staff announces that all p1ctures absolutely must be 1n by January 15th FEBRUARY AND MARCH The students pet1t1on Dr H111 to declare Ground Hog Day a school hohday Request not granted Nat1onal and 1nternat1onal 1ssues settled by 1nter class debaters Prof Moon states h1s VICWS on love and marr1age OZARKO staff announces that all p1ctures must be 1n by February 15th Calv1n Carl loses h1s note book and lncldentally h1s knowledge Ted Achord announces h1s cand1dacy for May Queen APRIL AND MAY Apr1l Fools Day IS duly observed by the students OZ ARKO staff announces that all PICIUTCS must be 1n by Apr1l 15th OZARKO queens everywhere and Ted runnmg strong Old term themes much 1n demand Shght mcrease 1n pr1ce over other terms The proposed plan for two hour tests IS dlscussed cussed, and recussed by exc1ted groups of students JUNE AND JULY AND AUGUST Several thousand students enroll for summer term and red Woolleys sell llke hot cakes The sale of assembly tlckets the greatest 1n the h1story of the school The OZARKO staff announces that all p1ctures must be 1n by june 15th The SCUIOTS rece1ve the1r sheep sk1ns and go forth to conquer the world The summer term ends and very few tears are shed 215 .

No college annual was ever put out without advertisements, and it can't be did. The satisfied and enthusiastic users of Dr. Smith's Cough Syrup and of Bayer's Aspirin Tablets as well as the Royal Rooters for other prominent firms just will insist that the ads be inserted, and there is no way out of it. The Cockle Bur editor has talked the situation over with the customers of these firms and we have adopted the following plan for getting the ads in the OZARKO. Firstly, every buyer- of-an-OZARKO is requested to clip advertisements of these prominent firms and paste them throughout the book, using any plan of interior decoration that suits his fancy. Secondly, the Editor of the aforesaid COCKLE BUR will set aside one page for certain local advertisers whose demands for advertis- ing space has been most urgent. Hoping that this arrangement meets with the approval of all, we are your humble servant and hope you the same. LOST AND FOUND. WANT ADS. Losr-Three overcoats with caps to match.
