BIS CCUDVIQIGHT 1935 BOARD OF PUBLICATIONS FARGO, NORTH DAKOTA by CATI-IRYN RAY- EDITOR CHESTER PERRY O BUS MGR L, O 6 A W 315091 NORTH DAKOTA AGRICULTURAL A COLLEGE at FARGO A i NORTH DAKOTA DEDICATED TWC DEAN A. E. MINAIQD A true pioneer of North Dakota Agricultural College, who has upheld our traditions unselfishly through years of adversity and success, a teacher who has guided many a faltering footstep on the road to education. T I? I L T E A college is not a thing of bricks and mortar, lordly buildings and spacious cam- pus. Without men these are less than nothing. The North Dakota Agricultural College of today is largely the result of years of effort and difficult struggles on the part of its faculty. Even now the faculty is struggling with their share of the problems of reconstruction brought on by a severe economic depression. To show ap- preciation for their sacrifices, we are attempting to pay tribute to them by de- picting throughout this volume the various aspects of the relationship between faculty and students. We are dedicating each of the main divisions of the book to each of the Deans on the campus. Our debt to our teachers cannot be paid in words ' ' we can only pay tribute in this humble manner.

L. Walster. In 1924, the School of Agriculture needed a Dean, H. L. Walster got the job. In 1934, the whole N.D.A.C. administrative set- up was reorganized, H. L. Walster became Dean of the Division of Agriculture, plus Director of Extension and of the Experiment Station. In his decade of dean-ship agricul- tural enrollment has sometimes climbed to almost double what it was when he became Dean. ' His work as a soils specialist has secured him, and his school, national, even interna- tional, recognition. DEAN H. L. WALSTER Q 'if i 93? ,, wfir Old Main J! ADMIN ISTIQATIGN PRESIDENT J. H. SHEPPERD PQSlClQI'll,S E?S9t1lqQ During every depression in American history, the people have stressed education. In the first depression of all, a courageous band of Puritans struggling with such poverty and adversity as have rarely fallen to the lot of man, yet felt it necessary to express their conviction of the value of education. They founded Harvard College in 1636-sixteen years after they landed on Plymouth Rock-saying, We must educate to maintain civilization. A severe depression began in 1837 and lasted six years. Unemploy- ment was appallingg the destitute crowded alms housesg food riots occurred in many places. But the late thirties and early forties saw great advances in education. After the crisis of 1873 school attendance increased twelve per cent and appropriations ten per cent. A depression of devastating propor- tions took place in 1893. Yet school attendance jumped about ten per cent and expenditures for school support rose twenty per cent. Qualifi- cations for teaching were raised and many new normal schools were established. A time of depression has always been a time of startling educational activity. The current depression offers little or no exception. For example, this institution in 1930-31 had the peak enrollment of its forty-five year career. Present figures indicate that this year's total enrollment will very nearly equal that of 1930-31. It is also significant that this year shows a larger freshman class than ever before. In my opinion nothing could speak better for our people than statistics like these. Surely a people capable of making the sacrifices incurred in sending the nation's collegiate enrollment, during the severest of depressions, to levels but little under those of 1929-surely such a people has a high destiny. ,ggi 1936 iiisobr Egg, 111.- p n l1Q 5lCllQ OClPCl ol minislmlion The prime essentials of an educational institution consist of students and teachers. An institution of learning is established and maintained primarily as a place where students may learn to better advantage than they would without its facilities. Yet, learning is the result exclusively of the students' own activities. Teaching is an auxiliary to learning. The zest the learner gains from personal influence of an inspiring teacher makes for a more intense applica- tion on his part to the performance of those acts that result in the acquisition of knowledge. power. and skill. Teachers who have achieved success in their own respective fields of learning, who have abiding interest in their special subjects and continue to enjoy learning more than any other kind of endeavor, fur- i nish encouragement and inspiration to learners to l devote themselves wholeheartedly to the mastering of worthwhile scholastic achievements. If, in addition to these educational qualities, the teacher possesses the qualities of high morals, personal magnetism, and sympathetic understanding of his pupils, his value to an institution and accomplishments in helpfulness to his pupils are immeasurably increased. Our Agricultural College has enjoyed an enviable reputation gained through the success of its alumni and outstanding faculty members. In this book an attempt is made to give proper recognition to those scholars, investigators, and teachers who have proved so valuable in preparation of students of this institution for useful service. May the work of the editors of the 1936 Bison give us a worthy memory book to perpetuate the names of the teachers who have contributed so largely to make this the great institution of learning that it is.

Rishworth John H-usby Arthur Thompson Mrs. Jennie Ulsrud Nelson Sauvain 4,gEQ3jff1'9 3 61 B I s o N gfgjfg., .-12.- 19 umni ssociolion The object of the Alumni and Former Student Association is to promote the welfare of the North Dakota Agricultural College by uniting the alumni and former students in its service, to make their knowledge and good will effective for the betterment of the College and the state, to aid in the mutual welfare of its members, and to keep them in touch with and sustain their interest in their Alma Mater. The management of the affairs of the Alumni and Former Student Association is vested in a governing board consisting of nine members. The members of the board are elected for a term of three years, three members being elected each year at the annual busi- ness meeting which is held the week of commence- ment. From among these nine members a president, vice-president, secretary, and treasurer are elected. At this time also they elect two other members who with the officers constitute the executive committee. l The executive committee has the power to act for the governing board in its absence on all matters pertain- Glenn Cook ing to the business of the Association. The governing board took an active part in the student drive. contacting students from every high school in the state, as well as part of Minnesota. The board also distri- buted the 1935 Bison yearbooks to the high schools in the state. During the State Fair this year the Association had a booth in the Education Building at the fair grounds where all alumni coming in for the Fair were registered and literature on the College was distributed to all interested parties. During Homecoming the alumni had a luncheon in the Lincoln Log Cabin for all graduates that came back for these festivities. It was estimated that over a thousand came back for Homecoming. The Twin City Booster Club entertained at a banquet in Minneapolis for the football team and coaches when the team played the University of Minnesota in September. George S. Hansen, '20, is Presi- dent of the Club. Dolve Gunvoldson Hollunds Olson Halbeison Bender Cook .-QEQETT Qinisgbitfcia-i -13- e eq islmv Responsibility meets Registrar Parrott at every turn. Secretary of the faculty council, he is gen- erally considered the interpreter and enforcer of faculty regula- tions. He is chairman of such standing committees as those on attendance, curriculum, eligibility, and freshman orientation. His office admits and enrolls students, of each keeping a per- manent academic record. When catalogs, when analyses of aca- demic grades, are published, his office prepares and publishes them. It must be ready to sub- mit comparative studies of teach- ing loads, of faculty salaries and rankings, of departmental teach- ing costs. It answers many a questionnaire. When the Bison questionnaired him, Mr. Parrott revealed a Winter term enrollment of one thousand three hundred and thirty-six, and the biggest winter term freshman class in N.D.A.C. history-five hundred and thirteen. The Seceelo Pu The student who pays for a dormitory room, munches a meal at the college cafeteria, patronizes the bookstore, or settles up at the end of the term for breakages in chemistry lab-such a student con- tacts Secretary-treasurer Hagan's office exactly four times. Mr. Hagan's office hands pay checks to every state and federal employee on the campus. It buys all supplies for the institution. It is the custodian of all college property. It administers telephone exchange, bookstore, and cafeteria. For every penny of the million dollars that pass through the of- fice in a normal year, Mr. Hagan is accountable to the federal or the state government. ,QEQWJ was BISON mn., ..14... TQD On the whole, our student group is optimistic, and pretty level-headed too, says Dean Pearl Dinan, who should know. Dean of Women, Miss Dinan directly con- tacts at least ninety per cent of N.D.A.C. women students, whom she advises with an eye to their so- cial and scholastic welfare. She serves on such committees as those on student loan fund, scholarships, student activities, social enter- tainrnent. She regularly attends meetings of organizations like Senior Staff and Women's Senate. She is supervisor of the women's dormitory. F.E.R.A. aid means an additional job for the Dean. She has to in- QCIH O OHWQYI terview numerous applicants and make assignments. In the fall quarter eighty-eight girls got F.E.R.A. assistance, in the winter quarter fifty-seven. He characterizes the prevailing student attitude the future. T Q DQGYI O GFI At some time in his college career, every man student here has come or will have come into direct or indirect contact with Dean Smith. It is his job to ad- just personal problems in the way that's best for individual and group Welfare. An added duty of the Dean's this year was to ad- minister federal aid to men stu- dents, among whom he was assign- ed one hundred and three full- time appointments to apportion as he saw fit. Dean Smith reports cases where F.E.R.A. funds have been indispen- sable to college attendance, or where they have so lightened financial worries as to stimulate better school work. as hopeful, serious, and heedful of 4gz zm, The complexities of organization of the mod- ern educational institution make the task of administration especially important. Unfortun- ately students often fail to understand the difficulties of administrative organization and the many obstacles in the path of college officials. Behind the scenes, guiding and directing the smooth running routine of the college is a group of able administrators. The administrative of- ficials also serve in an advisory capacity, attempt- ing to direct the individual student toward those pursuits in which he is best qualified and in which he is most likely to succeed. Through this yearbook We, as students, recognize the important role of our administrators in the life of this institution. FACULTV ivision oi ppiied Pis and Sciences Scarcely a year old, the Division of Applied Arts and Sciences is a lusty in- fant. It leads companion Divisions with a total enrollment of some six hundred. Last year's administrative reorganization W created this Division by combining the Schools of Science and Literature, Educa- tion, and Pharmacy. Dean of the giant is A. E. Minard. A. D. Weeks is Asso- ciate Dean in charge of the School of Edu- cation. W. F. Sudro Associate Dean in charge of the School of Pharmacy. Split up, the six hundred total yields a registration of approximately four hun- dred in Science and Literature, one hun- dred twenty in Education, eighty in Phar- macy. The heterogeneous Science and Literature Department shows the greatest gain over last year-about thirty-five. Bigger enrollment means bigger faculty. Vant Kebker was added to the Social and Economic Science staff to help handle the especially heavy enrollment in Commerce. Walter Wright joined the English Department. Sylvia Panimon became a full time instructor in Modern Languages. Glen Walrath held a part time instructorship in Mathematics. William Kluender was made a graduate assistant in Botany. Replacements included Charles Wells for Archie Higdon, Mathematics teacher, and Dr. Donald Tope for Glenn Lawritson, Education instructor. New this year was a course in Social Service. Doing actual case work, class members studied relief in the raw, under Miss Pearl Sa1sberry's direction. F.E.R.A. funds paid about sixty students in the winter term for doing odd jobs in the Division. Some did secretarial work or corrected papers. Others performed car- pentry jobs like installing weather strip. Still others aided in research conducted by faculty members. Dean Minard Science Hall ,ggi-15:6 BISON KQ11., .-18-. ivision 0 nqineevinq Recent administrative reorganization has combined the Schools of Chemistry and Engineering to form the Division of Engineering, with R. M. Dolve as Dean. Associate Dean L. L. Carrick administers the School of Chemistry. In the Engi- neering section of the Division, enrollment this year has ranged around three hun- dred sixty, topping last year's mark by about twelve. Freshman registration in Civil Engi- neering was about one hundred per cent heavier this year than it usually has been. Dean Dolve thinks that increased federal employment of civil engineers may have contributed to the popularity e of this course. Dean Dolve As F.E.R.A. workers, some fifty students ffall term figurej in the Division undertook major departmental improvement projects. They built equipment for electrical, me- chanical, and hydraulic laboratories. They constructed a large sectional map of the campus, showing all its surface and underground details. They redecorated classrooms and laboratories. An old tractor shed they converted into an engineering materials laboratory, and an old cement laboratory into a classroom. Several personnel changes were made. Albert Anderson, a 1931 N.D.A.C. gradu- ate, was employed to fill the vacancy created by the resignation of J. R. Van Dyke, Me- chanical Engineering instructor. To meet the demands of the expanded enrollment, a new teacher, A. M. Fitch, was added to the Civil Engineering faculty. The Division inaugurated a new course this year, a four year curriculum in Administrative Engineering. Engineering ,ggi 1936 BISON Egg., -19- ivision o ome conomics From last year's administrative reor- ganization the School of Home Economics emerged unmerged with any other School. It is the single department of the Divi- sion of Home Economicsg the Division's Dean is Miss Alba Bales. Home Economics registration during the year averaged around two hundred, leading last yearis figure by about twenty-five. The Dean and seven instructors do the teaching. More students registered for the Home Economics Education curriculum than for any of the other three, fArt, Foods and Nutrition, Clothing and Textilesj. Home Economics Education prepares students to teach Home Eco- nomics. Next most preferred course was Foods and Nutrition, which is predietetics work. Demand for this curriculum is growing rapidly, says Miss Bales. Clothing and Textiles is third most popular course. Dean Bales Solicitous about men who board themselves in housekeeping groups, the Department offered a new course this year in food preparation and menu work for men. Fifteen men, likewise solicitous, attended regularly. F.E.R.A. money allotted to the Division was spent for various purposes. Some of it compensated students who did clerical work. Some of it paid for gathering and filing material of pedagogical value. One student's job was to write every Home Economics graduate to learn of her post-N.D.A.C. career, and then to incorporate the results in a departmental register. Miss Ann Brown was added to the Art faculty to replace Miss Dorothy Hatch. Miss Edna Meshke took the place of Miss Helen Ewing, Clothing instructor.

In general charge of the three agricultural activities is H. L. Walster, Dean and Di- rector. P. J. Olson is Assistant Dean of Resident Teaching in Agriculture and Assistant Director of the Experiment Sta- tion. In the Extension Service N. D. Gorman is County Agent Leader, Grace De Long is Home Demonstration Leader, and H. R. Rilling 4-H Club Leader. Enrollment in Agriculture jumped sixty-four per cent this year over last. Popularity of the Forestry courses gained disproportionately. Special courses of- Dean Walster fered included those in practical agriculture during the winter term for temporary students. Recipients of F.E.R.A. aid in the fall quarter numbered thirty, in the winter quarter about forty. Some workers were employed in the barns on stock management projects. Others held clerical jobs. In addition, the Division was allotted much non-student F.E.R.A. and C.W.A. labor. Among recent staff changes are the resignation of Dr. C. E. Kellogg, associate pro- fessor of Soils, to head the U. S. Department of Agriculture's Division of Soil Survey. Kenneth Ableiter succeeded him. F. E. Moore became chairman of the Department of Poultry Husbandry. Miss Ina Brayton was added on a half-time basis to the teaching staff of the Bacteriology Department.

This total beats last year's by eleven hundred thirty. Fic- tion has the widest circulation. Periodi- cals are next most popular, and books on social science rank third. Serving today's thirteen hundred-odd enrollment keeps seven staff members and one part-time student busy. When the present building was erected in 1905, Mrs. Ethel McVeety, librarian then and librarian now, had one assistant to help wait on an enrollment less than a fourth as large. Science and Literature students use the library more than any other group, and Home Economics students are second best patrons. These two Schools lead partly because there are somewhat extensive departmental libraries in connection with other Schools. Recent enrollment increases are not without effect on library facilities, reports Mrs. McVeety. Fiction is wearing out under the strain, and there is a shortage of reserve books. M rs. M cVeety F.E.R.A. money has been a boon to the library. Its expenditure has kept the library open for the supper hour. A subject heading catalog and an authority list have been compiled. Poster work has been done, and many books have been mended. More help has kept the shelves in better order. Besides its popular Library Methods course, the library this year offered a class for teachers working for advanced degrees. To its collection of rare books, the library has during the year acquired some inter- esting additions, gifts of Mr. R. C. Lewis, Fargo. Among these are a group of folio size magazines dated 1851-1854. The Library ,gfqij 1936 BisoN Kgfg, ...22-. STU DENT GQVEIQN M ENT EARL JENNINGS, President of the Student Commission The Siudeni Commission With its chief purpose one of serving the student body as a whole and of offering a definite incentive for self-expression among the stu- dents, the Student Commission has gradually gained prestige and power until it now ranks as the most influential group on the campus. The members of the Commission are elected from among the student body at a general election. This year the Commission set out in the beginning to strengthen the power of the campus court. No drastic rules were enforced, but the group did put teeth in the rules which were already on the statute books. Gerald Stevens was appointed judge of the court with Orville Goplen and Maine Shafer as his clerks. Not only were many student violators of campus traffic laws brought before the bar of campus justice, but several faculty members as well. Formerly first offenders were not fined, but the Commission felt that there had been sufficient publicity accorded the rulings to enable all to know the rules. Therefore the judge at the second term decided to fine all first offenders accordingly. Homecoming was again under the jurisdiction of the student govern- ing body. A custom begun last year of inviting the University of North Dakota Student Commission president and Homecoming queen to the festivities at this institution was again followed and later our represen- tatives, Earl Jennings and Virginia Landbloom, journeyed to Grand Forks on a return visit. ,ggi 1936 BISON gag., 124.-.

The Commission was instrumental in obtaining contributions from other campus organizations for this purpose. The most successful dance spon- sored by the Commission was the Thanksgiving dance held in the Field House. Faculty members were especially invited to attend the Turkey Trot and mingle with the students. The Commission sponsored several dances throughout the year for the general student body, admission being by registration card only. Virginia Landbloom, social commissioner, planned all the parties with the assistance of Earl Jennings.

Com- posed of three faculty members, one alumni representative, and three members chosen from the student undergraduate body, the Board boasts a policy of freedom in the formation of all athletic procedure. Its juris- diction includes approval of all schedule arrangements and trip ex- pensesg it okays the expenses of the Department of Athletics and serves as judge of all athletic controversies. Sweaters were presented to mem- bers of the freshman and varsity football teams between halves of the N.D.A.C.-S.D.U. game by Dr. O. O. Churchill, president of the Board. The Board of Athletic Control maintains a policy coherent with and parallel to the rulings of the North Central Conference of which the Agricultural College is a member in good standing. Members of the Board are: Dr. O. O. Churchill, presidentg R. M. Dolve, secretary and treasurerg C. C.

President Shepperd ap- points the faculty members. Five of the students who function on the Board are chosen at the spring election. The sixth student serves ex- officio, by virtue of his occupancy of a major staff position on the Bison or the Spectrum. From its student membership, the Board chooses a president, who then becomes automatically Commissioner of Publica- tions on the Student Commission. That the students compose two- thirds of the Board is indicative of their ability to direct the policies of the student publications. The Board meets every first and third Wednesday of each month during the school year. Its actions are directed and controlled by an established constitution. The Board employs a secretary whose duty it is to care for all clerical work incidental to the publications. It is sanctioned by the College Council, from whom it obtains its right to operate. The present Board will elect major staff positions for the Bison and the Spectrum for the 1935-36 school year. The Board at the present time consists of Matilda Thompson, W. C. Palmer, and Rudolf Ottersen, faculty membersg Lawrence Bue, Melvin Hanson, Robert Parrott, Frieda Panimon, Constance Heilman, and Gordon Brandes, student members. ,ggsgifsif lgwsfrgga., - 27 ..

The Board is composed of two faculty members and three student members. All Lyceum numbers, debates, festivals, and declamatory contests are under the control of this Board. This year the high school debate tournament, sponsored by the Little Country Theater, was under the direction of the Board. Several schools from western Minnesota and eastern North Dakota entered the com- petition. Margaret Hylden, a freshman in the School of Education, was the winner of the annual declamatory contest this year. An especially outstanding Lyceum program was presented this year. Fritz ,Kreisler combined representative classic and modern transcrip- tions-Bach, Handel, Mendelssohn, Dvorak, and Mode Falla. The Eureka Jubilee Singers, a negro group, presented a number of songs character- istic of their race, consisting of spirituals, jubilees, word songs, and folk songs. Colonel W. de Basil's Ballet Russe of Monte Carlo, the first ballet to come to America since 1917, presented three numbers including Les Sylphidesj' Scuola di Ballo QSchool of the Danceb, and Le Beau Danube 1The Beautiful Danubej. Eide Norena, soprano of the Metropolitan Opera Company, gave an excellent interpretation of Italian, French, German, and Norse selections. The last number of this year's Lyceum Course was presented by Dudley Crafts Watson, Membership lecturer for the Art Institute of Chicago. .-QEQTL 1.:Qss--B.1soQN-ZCQi:1-A -23- B O U li T W CLASSES DEDICATED 1 Records reveal a total registration of two in the newly-created Education Department in 1909, about the time Dean Weeks became professor of Education.

XNOLEINGER YVILLIANI WRIGHT SE IOIQS In a brief time the class of 1935 shall leave the portals of North Dakota Agricultural College to take its place in the world just as four short years ago it took its place in college. It seems only yesterday that we thrilled and trembled as freshmen, conscious of our ignorance, but anxious to please. We were an ambitious group and have given our best to North Dakota Agricultural College. Our ranks are filled with men and women of outstanding ability in many fields. Brilliant scholars, great athletes, talented musicians, and sterling leaders have emerged from this group of timid freshmen. We have now reached the acme of our college careers, and look back at our record of educational attain- ment with a feeling of mingled pride and regret-proud that we have accomplished much, regretful that we did not accomplish more. Now we are about to enter another school-the school of life. We shall continue to build, each to his own life's ideal. With a diploma from North Dakota Agricultural Col- lege, we have a firm foundationg with our ambition as a spur and experience as a guide, the class of 1935 shall ac- complish great things.

We were suddenly plunged into a complex order that the upperclass students handled with a seemingly remarkable degree of ease. Our concepts effected what might be termed a form of hero worship and also an incentive for individual advance- ment. The unbelievable pace of time soon accentuated the talent of the class to a position that commanded the atten- tion of even our seniors. Honor was attained in scholarship, our athletes gained recognition, those so inclined became active in dramatics and speech, others were interested in campus publicationsg still others took up active and official positions in fraternal orders. In fact, our class soon became an integral part of the institution. As juniors We have, to a greater degree than ever be- fore, entered into the activities of the school. That the Junior Prom was destined to be the social event of the season was inevitable, its most competent management assured that fact. We now stand as the potential seniors of 1936, feeling very capable of maintaining our established integrity. HAROLD R.

Journalism, debate, ora- tory, dramatics, music, athletics, and other fields have claim- ed the earnest attention of this class. The class has its share of scholars as evidenced by the number of sophomores on the Honor Roll each term. As freshmen the class of 1937 began to make its in- fluence felt by upperclassmen. Now in its second year at North Dakota Agricultural College, it continues to be a real factor in college affairs. Whether or not the class will con- tinue to maintain the record it has achieved thus far is still a matter of speculation. Judging from the past attainments of the class of 1937, however, it is only logical to suppose that its record will be even more outstanding during the last two years of its college life. There is an abundance of true and able leadership in our ranks. However, it is not always easy to see and recog- nize true leadership and give it a chance to express itself. Should the leadership in the class of 1937 be given full opportunities for real service to North Dakota Agricultural College, then there will be nothing to prevent this class from becoming one of the greatest classes in the history of our Alma Mater.

TOMAN WALTER ULMER JEANNE VERNE STEVE WARD , EVELYN WAHAM W M 1 FIQESHM N X 59 r ' Entering North Dakota Agricultural College in Septem- ber, 1934, the freshman class had the distinction of being one of the largest freshman classes ever registered at this institution. We realize fortunately that we cannot base our hope for achievement in years to come on numbers alone. Quantity alone will not make us an influence in school life. We must exhibit true quality if we are to find a place in the sun for ourselves. Already, however, the various members of our class have discovered fields for advancement and experience. We have representatives in many different lines of collegiate activity, each individual gravitating toward the things that seem most suitable for an outlet of his own personal ambitions and inclinations. Many of our members have not yet dis- covered the fields in which they can best express their talents, but we venture to say that next year will develop a wealth of new talent within the ranks of our class. Although we are not entirely adjusted to college life and although we still have much to learn, we feel never- theless that we have contributed to the Welfare of this in- stitution in the past year and that we have not been an altogether unimportant and insignificant factor in the life of this college. We conclude the work of this year with the hope of greater achievements for the future. CHARLES POLLOCK Class President BUCK TPDEIS ORGANIZATIONS DEDICATED T When Miss Alba Bales came here in 1920 to head the Home' Economics Department, she found about sixty students enrolled. Since 1924 she has served as the Department's Dean. Today seven instructors teach home economics to more than treble the 1920 number. The why of this enrollment jump is that Miss Bales has built up a School of Home Economics that is famous throughoutthis sec- tion of the country for its thoroughness and progressiveness. . On several occasions her abilities as an educator have received nation- wide recognition.

Meetings of the group are held the first Monday of every month. The purpose of the Council is to draft rushing rules, to take an interest in sorority life, and to decide on all things that in any way affect the sororities. Panhellenic awards a scholarship to a girl on the campus who has high scholastic standing, who gives promise of success in her work, and who is self-supporting in part at least. In the fall term the Council gives a get togetherl' party for all the women students on the campus. Sponsoring the formal Charity Ball, the Council succeeded in raising a considerable sum of money which was donated to the Community Chest Fund of the city. Because of the charitable nature of the affair, no elaborate scheme of decorations was carried out. Greek letters of each sorority were silhouetted against the windows of the Field House, where the event was held. One of the important discussions held by the Panhellenic group this year concerned the question of the adoption of the quota system of pledging. Under this system the pledge chapter of each group would be definitely limited. No action was taken by the Council, however, and the question is open for consideration next year. ..14..

It has complete charge over rushing, pledging, and initiation, and determines the schol- astic averages for the fraternities. In 1934-35 the Council effected new regulations intended to remedy undesirable elements of rushing activi- ties. These consist of the elimination of free meals at noon, the insti- tution of the secret pledge and bid system, and a provision that prospec- tive pledges shall be free from all approach by fraternity members for one day preceding pledging night and that rushing cannot be carried on from one A.M. to one P.M. while eliminating rushees. These regulations have been criticized, however, and it is uncertain whether they will still remain in force during future terms. -g4..

The N.D.A.C. group, which was formerly the Scouters' club, was installed as Alpha Lambda chapter of Alpha Phi Omega on November 7, 1934. This honorary service fraternity, as a part of its program to pro- mote better relationships among fraternities of the campus, sponsored the first annual inter-fraternity sing during the spring term. The event was conducted as a contest in which choruses of any size representing each fraternity competed for trophies, which will be circulated each year. Each competing group sang two of its own fraternity songs, and prizes were awarded to the largest group and also to the finest singers. The fraternity plans to offer a scholarship to the outstanding Boy Scout of the state. This scholarship will help the Scout through his first year of college. If funds are available, several scholarships may be offered. The group also plans a more thorough orientation program for fresh- men by an adviser system, each member being responsible for a certain number of freshmen. ,ggi IQSSQIYSON Egg, -961 Olson Scott Thompson Kelly Cline Johnson ZQlCl Alpha Zeta is a national honorary agricultural fraternity represent- ing achievement, character, leadership, and personality, and seeking to promote high scholarship among college men interested in agriculture. It is dedicated to the spirit of science and accomplishment. Member- ship is limited, only the upper two-thirds of those enrolled in the School of Agriculture being eligible. Alpha Zeta was organized on the campus of North Dakota Agricul- tural College on June 8. l9l0, and has been active for twenty-five years. Therefore appropriate plans for an anniversary celebration were de- veloped. The silver jubilee birthday party began with a theater party, which was followed by a dinner. A banquet was held in the spring at which new members were initiated. Several years ago Alpha Zeta began the custom of awarding a silver cup in the fall to the sophomore Agriculture student with the highest average during his freshman year. This year the honor was bestowed upon Harry Graves. Another custom of Alpha Zeta is to award cer- tificates of good scholarship at the end of each fall term to two high- ranking freshman Agriculture students. This year they were presented to Kirk Crawford and Lawrence Fine. The group also gave a trophy to Emma Dietz as a prize for winning the co-ed milking contest at the Little International Livestock Show. ,ggi 1936 IKSTNTKQQ., -97- Ballard B.

One term of Art or its equivalent, creative ability, and a special interest in art are prerequisites for membership in this Club. Meetings are given over to educational talks on art. The Art Club in conjunction with the architects' club, Atelier Chat Noir, sponsors annually the Beaux Arts Ball. Robert Landbloom, his partner, Marjorie Arnold, and Ellen Blair and her escort, Lynn Frederik- son, led the Ball. Following the theme of Robin Hood, one hundred fifty couples danced in medieval attire. Milton Lee, dressed as a gallant knight of the middle ages, won first place for costumes with his partner, Cecil Olson, who was gowned as an Elizabethan court attendant, The Bohemian dinner and an exhibit and sale of Japanese prints were features of the activities of the Club.

This year the group held its first annual national convention, at Chicagog Robert Par- rott of the local chapter attended. Blue Key endeavors to carry out a constructive program during the school year, with the Bison Brevities, an all-College show, as the major activity. Each spring Blue Key awards the degree of Master Freshman to the freshman boy with the highest average for the preceding two terms, and the degree of Doctor of Service to the man, on or off the campus, who has been most outstanding in service to the College. Each year it pays the tuition of one member of the junior class picked for outstanding scholarship. In May the organization cooperates with Senior Staff in sponsoring a joint Recognition Day. The slogan, Service to the College, is the foremost thought in all of its activities. ,ggi 1936 BISON KQ51., -99- Ismelsou Smith Hummel Dietz Coyne Anderson. Shelland Tidemanson DePuy LE? Ceres GH The Ceres Hall Club is made up of all the girls living in Ceres Hall. The Club is governed by a Council named each fall to serve during the school year. Called the Junior-Senior Council, it is composed of the Ceres Hall social hostess, the elected officers, and three appointed mem- bers. To settle any problems that may arise among the girls is the Councils purpose. A fall party, a Christmas party, one dancing party, a Winter term bridge party, and a May Breakfast for senior girls in the Hall, are sponsored by the Council. The fall party, at which the 'tBig Sisters of the Y.W.C.A. assisted, was in the nature of a get-together where the older girls had the opportunity of meeting the freshman girls. The Christmas party held this year was given as a pyjama party. At Home- coming the Council also sponsored an open house program. ,Q-QT 1936 BISON TKQQ1, -100- Beaudine Spitzer That Carrick Ugstad Odell Newman Wright Rehmann Seeba Kemmer Groff Maris Thiegs Farstad Dalsted Pollock Ercink Bjerke Sunde Ophaug Oscarson Crust H orejsi Anderson Walde Sjothun Dundon T e C emisls, The Chemists' Club is the Voice of the Chemistsf' Composed of Chemistry majors and the Chemistry faculty, it serves to promote a closer union between alumni, faculty, and students, and to provoke in- terest in the field of chemistry.

The membership includes students of all classes, and the Dean and faculty members of the School of Engineering act as the advisers. The Club meets twice a month, when varied programs of technical lectures, educational moving pictures, and other entertainment are put on. These programs give the students an insight into the field of practical engineering. The student branch of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, the student branch of the American Society of Civil Engineers, and the American Institute of Electrical Engineers all have estab' Mchapters on this campus, and each one alternately sponsors a for the Engineers' Club.

The Engineers' Club sponsors two major social functions each year, the Engineers' Ball in the fall term and the Engineers' Banquet in the spring. The Ball this year was managed by Ernest Hall, who with his partner, Sylvia Ekeland, was also the leader of the grand march. Harry Hall and his orchestra furnished the music, and the theme of the decorations was the novel lighting effects arranged by the engi- neers. The Engineers' Banquet is an annual affair held mostly as a get- together for the engineers, at which time they talk over engineering subjects and take in new members. They also sponsor an orientation program for freshman engineers, and the open house project at the spring festival. The Engineers' Club helps to create a closer unity,-betyqeen students and the faculty by bringing them together in one organization, and although their programs are varied and entertainingfytheif main pur- pose is the creation of an ideal School of Engineering. 1 A ,ggi 1936 BISON KC51., -1os- Boleyn Murphy Kilbourne Knight Perry Fraser Parrott Lztten McGrath Go lseth Larson Smith ammo GU Siqmo For the purpose of promoting a greater interest in journalism as a study and as a profession, and of encouraging a high scholastic standing among its members, Gamma Tau Sigma was organized in 1925 at North Dakota Agricultural College. Alpha chapter was formed here in 1933 as the first unit in the national organization, with Moorhead State Teachers College claiming Beta chapter as the second unit. Besides talent and interest in journalistic endeavor, one must have one year of journalistic experience, have some connection with an official publication of the school, and maintain an eighty-two average in order to gain admission to Gamma Tau Sigma. Among the activities of the organization are the bi-monthly meeting of the members at a luncheon, the initiation of new members twice a year, and the sponsoring each year of some worthy cause. Last year the project was the installation of the chimes in the Little Country Theater, and this year the club has been instrumental in having the tennis courts reopened. ,gfqi 1936 BISON mg, -ws- Jennings Jones Sundt Korshus Rosenberg Akeley M cG1'ath Kohl CIPPCI CIU GHG .Kappa Tau Delta, honorary architectural fraternity, was organized in 1925 in order to promote the ideals and interests of scholarship and to uphold the best traditions in college life at North Dakota Agricul- tural College. Membership is limited due to the nature of the organization, and requirements for admission have always been high, being based on scholarship, attitude, and personality. This year the requirements have been raised still higher. The Founders' Day Banquet is an annual event at which honorary and alumni members are guests. This year's Banquet was especially enjoyable, occurring on December 12 during a week-end outing at Professor Homer Huntoon's cabin at Lake Pelican. Quarterly gatherings for alumni and active members are also held. Each spring Kappa Tau Delta sponsors a sketch competition, the winner having his name engraved on a plaque which hangs in the archi- tectural library. Meetings of the group are held twice a month.

It seeks to foster learning in competition with the numerous attractive and conflicting interests affecting the modern every-day life of the undergraduate student by offering him membership in the society on an equal basis with members of the faculty. Phi Kappa Phi has always been distinguished for the democracy of its elections and for its constructive program for the promotion of scholarship. Membership is open to honor students in all the various colleges and schools of liberal arts, agriculture, engineering, law, com- merce, home economics, etc. Members of Phi Kappa Phi in the class of 1935 include: Lawrence Anderson, 'Marion Anderson, Robert Bergseth, William Clark, Marlin Cline, Arthur Cramer, Amy Glaser, Margaret Hanson, LaVernis Hidde, Vernetta Hidde, Isabelle Humphreys, Laddie Kelly, William .Kneeland, Howard Kilbourne, John McCarthy, Gale Monson, Jane Nichols, Kaare Rosenberg, Donald Scott, Gerald Stevens, Paul Ugstad and Warren Whitman. 1-:QE-'2t.-1 93 6 B E613 Lliiaf. - 109 - Hoffman High Frederick Rhines Bzbow Glaser Blair Verne Bristol Rustad Baker H wmphreys Peterson Hanson Smith I P S I O l'l ITI I C PO fl Phi Upsilon Omicron, a national honorary professional home econo- mics sorority organized at the University of Minnesota in 1910, aims to establish and promote professional interest in home economics. Mem- bers are elected from those who have had two years of home economics, on the basis of character, scholarship, leadership, and professional attitude. Beta chapter is active as well as honorary. Each year it undertakes a program of professional interest. Included in this yearls program was the accumulating of data on the positions which are open to women with home economics training in the' fields of commerce, industry, journalism, advertising, social service, and laboratory research, besides such fields as are generally considered within the scope of home economics. The society assisted in furnishing the child training center in Fargo this year by making curtains for windows and providing a certain amount of equipment in order to make it more adequate as a child center. Dinners and a style show were included in the social features of the organization. Acting as a social hostess group, the society gave sev- eral teas for various school organizations. The attainment of service and quality are the primary aims of the various social functions given by the chapter. On February 12 a Founders' Day Banquet is given at which both alumni and active members are gathered. The national convention last year was held in June at Columbus, Ohio. Hermione Hanson was the delegate from this chapter, as Maxine Rustad, president, was unable to attend. ,ggi 1936 BISON Igjg., -no- Hall Armstrong Larson Anderson Purdy Higgins Thompson Nelson Kluendev' Ness Heggeness Pfau Waldron Ableiter Vowles Scott Stevens Whitman Cline Bolley Kirkness Johnson Stoesz I1 lj lo I S To further scientific interest in the allied sciences of botany, soils, agronomy, horticulture and bacteriology is the aim of Phytois.

Beauti- fication of the North Dakota Agricultural College campus is also one of the purposes of the society. Organized in 1931, Phytois has been steadily active since then. Initia- tions are held during the fall and spring terms, being preceded by a banquet for the group and guests from the various fields of science in which the club is interested. ,gif 1936 BISON Kin., -111- Solberg Mattson Williams Tracy Kneeshaw Hamilton H.Halcrow Widdifeld Weiser Achamire Pratt Larson J.

Students enrolled in the School of Agriculture are eligible for membership in the Club, whose purpose is to stimulate interest in animal husbandry and agriculture in general. The Club is active, and promotes an educational program during the school year. The Little International Livestock Show is the main event in the Club's program. Lewis Rector was in charge of the Show, held this year in the Livestock Pavilion. Highlights of the Show were the co-ed milking contest, won by Emma Dietz, member of the Cosmo- politan Clubg and the sorority dog show, won by Martha Parker's dog, a Chow. Miss Parker's dog was the Kappa Kappa Gamma's entrant. The Club also takes an active part in 4H Club work in the state. It sponsors a student stock judging contest, and holds an annual ban- quet with the North Dakota Livestock Breeders Association. This year the members of the Club unveiled the picture of John Dawson, an out- standing state agriculturist, in the Hall of Fame. ,ggi 1936 BISON Egg., -112- Rustad. Hanson Landbloom.

It is composed of members chosen from the upper two-thirds of the senior class in recognition of their leader- ship, scholarship, and service to the institution. The Senior Staff has always taken an active part in the activities of the school. Those activities during the past year included the spon- soring of three all-College parties, and the publication of the Senior Staff Chat and the womens honor roll. The Staff assisted in the Home- coming arrangements, awarded tuition to a worthy sophomore girl, and gave a ten dollar gold piece to the freshman girl having the highest average of the women in her class. lt cooperated with Blue Key on Recognition Day, gave a tea for eligible junior girls, and inaugurated Musicales. During the year the group sponsored a series of Spinster Skips. These were affairs to which the girls on the campus had the right to invite their men friends. ,QQ2 1936 BISON Egg., -us- Pierce Hoistad Dolve M cCarthy Smith Peterson Carlson Hanson Gilbertson Broderson Bergseth Erickstad Froling N aegeli Garvick Kneeland Moffitt ou elim i Tau Delta Pi, honorary engineering fraternity, was organized in 1929 to satisfy a need for an organization which would honor those students of the Engineering School worthy of recognition.

FOGTBALL CH Bison l The Bison added 1934 to their list of successful football cam- paigns by finishing the top bracket of the North Central conference second only to the highly touted SiouXpermen of the University of North Dakota. Putting the fin- ishing touches to a satisfying year, the Bison defeated the pennant winning Sioux by completely out- maneuvering them and scored the only seven points that blotched the Finnegan Dobervich Sioux's otherwise perfect record. Coaches Finnegan and Lowe took the Herd into Texas and Oklahoma to meet the class of these teams in intersectional games. The year marked the close of the spectacular four-year career of Fritz Hanson, and a career that can be matched only by the brilliant playing of Claude Miller several years ago. It was Hanson's unmatched speed that left both the Bison fans and the Herd opponents breathless. Climaxing the season, its twenty-five lettermen winners selected Sam Dobervich of Crosby Ironton, to captain the 1935 squad. All conference honors went to Herb Peschel and Fritz Hanson. The letter winners include Peschel, Thomas, Miller, House, Dobervich, Olson, Newman, Stevens, Marquardt, Sloan, Sturgeon, Boettchsen, Maynard, Reiners, Gerteis, Skurdall, Hanson, Dohn, Schranz, Erickson, Gove, May, Isensee, and student manager Hallenberg. 1934 FOOTBALL TEAM Borroivr Row-House, Skurdall, Welsh, Stevens, Severson, Olson, Newman, Capt.

Both teams had difficulty in getting their offensive plays to function and as a result there was a great amount of punting in the four quarters. An apparently scoreless contest ended midway in the fourth period as Schollander dropped a pass into the hands of Fritz Hanson, but Hanson was dropped on the Concordia 10 yard marker. On the next play Bill Gove smashed the ball over the goal line for the single counter of the game. The Cobbers stubborn attack was warded off mainly by the Bison forward wall, but the Concordia team evened matters by keeping the Bison backfield bottled up. North Dakota Agricultural College 12 Minnesota 52 While the second engagement of the season resulted in defeat it probably was the greatest treat for the Bison that they had during the 1934 season. Even the score bears out the fact that the Herd played a great game against the highly rated Minnesota team, and the Bison brought due credit to themselves for scoring against the Gophers. It was only because of several tough breaks that the Bison did not make at least another counter, but they found it too trying a task to offer much resistance against the fresh material that Minnesota continually sent into the game. The Bison deserve more than honorable mention for the fine brand of football that they displayed against the nation's number one team. .-Q32 193VQ32ig6.N Kiln-, -121- North Dakota Agricultural College 27 St. Thomas 0 Led by the brilliant playing of the reserves the Bison team smashed their way to a thrilling victory over the fighting St. Thomas eleven, and undoubtedly part of their victory can be attributed to experience received at the hands of the Gophers. Bomba Isensee led the power plays by successively plunging through the Bison forward wall for gains averaging five yards at every thrust. Let Dohn proved that he was capable of stepping into Hanson's berth in the backfield, as he flashed around the ends for sub- stantial gains. The Bison maintained a tight defense forcing the Tommies to punt quite frequently in order to get the ball into the Bison territory. North Dakota Agricultural College 22 South Dakota U 0 The Herd followed up their good start of the season by winning their firstcon- ference game from the Coyotes of South Dakota University, under the floodlights of Dacotah Field. The Bison had little difficulty in defeating the Coyotes and only the brilliant running of Fritz Hanson prevented the game from being one of those boring football contests. The Bison line drove open large gaps through which the blond Fritz ripped for several long gains, thus accounting mainly for the 22-0 score. Only once did South Dakota U make any threat to score, but after losing the ball on downs, Sturgeon booted it deep into Coyote territory where it remained for the duration of the game. In the Bison forward wall Sam Dobervich and Earl Thomas were particularly out- standing. Olson May Dobervich Isensee ,,g'fQ'I 1936 BISON Hgh, -122- Maynard Reiners Bettschen StuTQ90n North Dakota Agricultural College 12 Morningside 12 On October 20 the Bison made the fatal journey to Vermillion, South Dakota, where a well balanced Maroon team fought them to a tie game, thereby causing the herd to relinquish its early claim to the North Central conference championship. The Bison running offense was greatly hampered by a rain soaked field, and it was only through the efforts of Bob Erickson and Fritz Hanson that the Herd was pulled from near defeat. It was not the condition of the field alone that enabled the Maroons to check the Bison for the Morningside eleven displayed fine football tactics and they were con- stantly threatening the Bison goal line. If the Herd could only have made one of their points after a touchdown the whole conference set-up would have been altered as far as the championship was concerned, but our defeat at South Dakota State threw it into the hands of the Sioux. North Dakota Agricultural College 7 University of N. Dak. 0 Rising to their greatest form of the season the Thundering Herd decisively defeated the haughty Sioux from North Dakota University before a record crowd on Dacotah Field on October 27, 1934. Fritz Hanson led the Bison attack and supported by the brilliant signal calling of Leo Gerteis he constantly made substantial gains around the ends. The Sioux, fearing the dangerous thrust which Erickson was capable of were forced to play with the secondary close to the forward wall giving Hanson the oppor- tunity to threaten the Sioux by his end runs. Schollander had an opportunity to prove that he was still the University jinx by hauling down Kupcinet of the Sioux, who was streaking for the Bison goal line after he had taken the Bison kickoff. After a series of spectacular plays Hanson skirted the Sioux left end for the only counter of the game. Schollander booted the extra point. s 452. 1936 BisoN Egg., -123- North Dakota Agricultural College 12 M. S. T. C. 13 On November 3, the Moorhead State Teachers college gave the Bison their real upset of the year on the Dragon field, and we probably should fill this space with a picture of Yatchak, Dragon fullback, instead of attempting to offer excuses for the Bison. Following their victory over the Sioux it may have been that the Herd was overconfident but regardless of this possibility the Dragons presented a much better team than the Bison as far as this game was concerned. The Bison could not get either their defensive or offensive to click satisfactorily, while the Dragons presented one of the best teams they have had in a number of years, and so it was only natural that the Bison came out on the short end of the score. Leo Gerteis and Herb Peschel made the two counters for the Herd. North Dakota Agricultural College 0 South Dakota State 38 H Homecoming for the South Dakota State college team was a happy one, but to the Bison it only meant that the North Central conference championship title which had hovered around North Dakota Agricultural College bounced smartly into the hands of our up-state rivals, the Sioux. The Bunnies presented an exceptionally well balanced team and to the Herd's dismay the South Dakota aggregation battered the line, skirted the ends, heaved and caught passes, and accounted for large gains on nearly every play they attempted. The Bunnies completely shut out the Bison offense and punctured its defense, and while they managed to run up 38 points the Bison were left without a counter. We can console ourselves by adding that if it hadn't been for the usual football breaks South Dakota State would have had an opportunity to cop the con- ference title, but our defeat simply meant the title went to the University of North Dakota. House Millar Thomas P9SCh2l ,ggi 1936 BISON Egg., -124- Newman Stevens Sloan M arquardt North Dakota Agricultural College 13 Oklahoma City 7 Following the Bison defeat at the hands of the Bunnies the Herd swung into their southern tour, and made their first stand against the Goldbugs from Oklahoma City. The North Dakota Agricultural College team was anxious to avenge the set-back that the Goldbugs gave them last seasong and led by the brilliant running of Hanson the Herd was able to fulfill their desire by rolling up a six point margin to defeat the Gold- bugs 13-7. The outstanding feature of the game was the 96-yard run for a touchdown by Fritz Hanson through the entire Goldbug team to cross the Oklahoma goal line standing up. The Goldbugs displayed some fine offensive playing, but they were not capable of bottling up the shifty Bison backfield. In this game as in the next the Herd brought a great deal of credit to themselves, and received so many favorable comments that we are forced to overlook the Moorhead State Teachers college farce. North Dakota Agricultural College 20 Texas Tech 20 After the Bison victory at Oklahoma City the team invaded Texas to meet the Matadors from Texas Tech, a team reputed to be one of the strongest in the southwest. Exclusive of the North Dakota U game this was probably the best exhibition of clever and consistent football tactics on the part of both teams that was demonstrated during the entire 1934 Bison schedule. Hanson again had an opportunity to display his speed, but unlike the game with the Goldbugs he was unable to break away for any long runs. The game was more or less of a nip and tuck affair with first one side scoring and then the other, and as a result the scores were practically tied throughout the four quarters. The final gun stopped a Matador march which left them in possession of the ball on the Bison 15-yard line. Dobervich, May and Schollander were all out- standing for the Bison in the game. ,QEQI 1936 BISON Mig., -125- l l lQ OClCl'lQS It is only fitting that we turn now to the men who are directly responsible for the organization and training of the many successful teams that have been turned out since the present coaching combination took over the North Dakota Agricultural College Bison. Besides serving as Athletic Director, C. C. QCaseyJ Finnegan acts as head coach for the Bison football aggregation and assumes the responsibility of directing the Bison backfield while Bob Lowe supervises the line. Both of the coaches had their part of the team well in hand for Bob's strong forward wall proved to be the equal of any of the conference teams, while Finnegan's shifty backfield was a constant threat in all games of the 1934 grid season. Casey,' was brought to North Dakota State from Grafton high school where he had established an enviable reputation as a producer of outstanding prep teams. The original purpose of bringing him here in 1928 was to serve as Athletic Director, but due to his coaching ability he was called upon to act as head football coach as well. At Fargo High school Bob Lowe had been engaged as a mathematics instructor and coach for the school eleven, and Finnegan recognizing Lowe's coaching ability brought him to the North Dakota Agricultural College campus to aid him in building up a strong Bison aggregation. Working in perfect harmony with each other, the combination of Lowe and Finnegan has been an important factor in the success of the various Bison teams since the fall of 1928, and as we glance at some of the fine victories of the Bison we cannot overlook the importance of our coaches. Hanson Skurdahl Gerteis Dohn ,g'fQ'g' 1936 BISON Elm -126- BASKETBALL Lowe Marquarclt 1934-193 Qsleihull The portals of sport have turned toward success in the annals of 1934-1935 basketball. The Bison have added another rung to the ladder of basketball fame. After getting off to a slow start by suffering a crushing defeat at the hands of a great University of Minnesota quint, the Herd continued to improve. Twelve men, including eight lettermen led by Captain Bud Marquardt, were responsible for the success of the sea- son's campaign. The other men include Olson, Bernard, Saunders, Rein- ers, Denenny, Bettschen. Stevens, Erickson, Stinson, Maynard and Percy. Impressive as was the Bison's conquest of the Minnesota teams, fully as impressive and remarkable was their conference record. After winning successive victories over such strong non-conference foes as LaCrosse Normal, Superior Teachers College, St. Mary's College, and Moorhead State Teachers College, the Bison next concentrated their efforts on conference rivals. After an easy 54-24 win over Morn- ingside, the Bison quint had more difficulty in putting down a strong South Dakota University team 33-31. The Herd had still more trouble in defeating the scrappy, smooth-working Coyotes of South Dakota State College. Again the cool work of the green and yellow veterans saved the day. mwflv, 7 M tribe-, .1 a3g-.BeLSeO.N-E951-. - 128 - i 1934-1935 Basketball. Team Erickson Bettschen Bernard Reiners Saunders Maynard Lowe Denenny Stevens M arquarclt Olson Percy The Bison were caught off-form when they were decisively beaten by a fast Jamestown College five. Handicapped by injuries, the Bison next centered their attention toward their ancient rivals up the river. Because of these injuries, Coach Lowe had to revamp the whole lineup at a week's notice. The blow of the season came when a rangy University of North Dakota quint defeated the fighting Herd in four consecutive victories, thereby retaining the conference crown for the second straight year. Coach Lowe deserves much credit for presenting a team that fought to the last gun-and the scores were not indicative of the closeness of the games. The battling Sioux really gave a fine exhibition of basketball but the Bison fans feel that the games would have been much more indicative of the true comparative strength of the two teams had the Herd been able to present a full team composed of regulars not handi- capped by injuries. The work of the Agricultural college sophomore stars was a deciding factor in this series, with both Saunders and Stevens coming up from the reserve ranks in fine style. ,ggpzwsw-grgu, 1 129 ... FROIVI Coach Lowe was forced to rely heavily on green material throughout the season. not because of lack of veteran material, but chiefly because the injury jinx haunted the squad. As things turned out, this reliance upon underclassmen will be a decided ad- vantage for succeeding teams, as it afforded this new material an opportunity to gain ex- perience that they would otherwise have been forced to do without, had the lettermen been in condition to play. At the comple- tion of the conference battle, nine players were awarded monograms. In conclusion it may truthfully be said that the Bison finished a really successful season. To balance the close series with the Sioux, which might have been as easily won as lost had the Aggies gotten the breaks, there is a long string of wins against strong Minnesota teams, and the loop record, which does not show a single loss except to the University. In his second year at the helm of the basketball team, Coach Lowe has done remarkably well to keep such an injury-riddled team in the upper bracket during a season which saw practically every school in the loop boasting some of the finest potentialities in years.

Competition was keener and rivalry greater than ever before on this campus. All representative teams were strong and the brand of basketball played was much above that shown in the preceding years. The Kappa Sigma Chis presented a well-balanced team, and after a fine season's record deserved the right to play Delta Tau Epsilon, winners of A bracket championship. In the playoff, the Kappa Sigs defeated the Delta Taus in two out of three games to clinch the campus title. A nonsorority team captained by Aldeen Paris won the girls' in- tramural championship by defeating another nonsorority team led by Mollie Cushman. Too much cannot be said about the playing ability of these girls, and as a result competition was keener this year than ever before. Intersorority basketball is sponsored by Delta Psi Kappa, national athletic sorority. Although the Phi Omega Pi team was in third place, it received the recognition cup because it was the highest ranking sorority team. Members of the winning team include: Captain Aldeen Paris, Ethel Olson, Hjordis Lovik, Verda Van Vorst, Mary Fay Wenger, Mary Mickelson, Luella Grutle, and Lottie Behrens.

I S CQVYFEQQ - 141 - A student does not necessarily enter the field of college publications because he intends to be a journalist. Some students undoubtedly have this goal in mind when they apply for a staff position, but many students work on college publications because they feel that they are gaining valuable experience which will fit them for almost any profession. Recalcitrant students are beginning to discard the idea that journalists are born and not made and that journalism as a profession is open to only a favored few. The greatest test of a student journalist is his willingness to Work and to co-operate with other staff members. The brilliant but lazy student will not make a name for himself in college jour- nalism. A student publication is too big a job for one person to handle alone. An editor is to a large extent at the mercy of his staff. For this reason no editor is going to tolerate a shirking staff. There are many opportunities for experience in the college Press for those who are willing to take advantage of them.

Bunnies lickety-skipped, be-pillowed Tweedle Dees and Dums wabbled, cards shuffled, Humpty dumpted, Cheshire cats slinked, and babies Cthat turned into pigs when food time camej didn't crawl in the mad-marching led by one of the Alice in Wonderlands, Jane Nichols, and one of the Madhatters, Amy Glaser, who wound thru and under the croquet wickets of the Queen's court. Alice in Blunderlandn, a skit in which Lois McNair was Alice, Virginia Smith, the sand man, Sally Minard, the cat, and two people with unrecognizable legs, the nightmare, was the main part of the program. Pink tea and apple tarts made up the repast, which proved bun- nies, Cheshires, Alice, and guests in gen- eral neither herbivorous nor carnivorous. The Prom was sponsored by the Social Committee of the Y.W.C.A. under the direction of Amy Glaser, social chairman.

Following a tradition established seven years ago, the editors have devoted a section to the most representative seniors of North Dakota Agricultural College. Selection of the students has been unbiased in every respect. As an in- novation this year, the names of the committee members have been officially announced. In past years the names were not divulged by the editors. The editors of the 1936 Bison feel that the students will be better satisfied if the mem- bership of the committee is definitely known to the student body. The seniors honored in this manner have been selected on the basis of scholarship, service, and leadership. THE LITTLE CGUNTIQY THEATEIQ The As You Like It', stained glass window in the Little Country Theater, which was pre- sented to the Theater by the 4-H Clubs of North Dakota on their twenty-fifth anniversary 1-n3??,1s9i3.fL1Sli0LKCl'a-, -- 168 - ALFRED G. ARVOLD Founder of The Little Country Theater 66 . . F9 Q Clqlfl WIS Most of us are interested in the theater. Some of us collect theater programs, vol- umes of plays, pictures of Thespians. Up in North Dakota there is an instructor in English whose enthusiasm is the theater, too. But in the last twenty-five years he has made it possible for a whole state to participate in theatricals. Twenty-five years ago he came from Wisconsin to become instructor at the North Dakota Agricultural College. All he had to show for his interest in the stage were three dogeared plays in which he had acted back home. A school-teacher wrote for his help in giving an entertainment and he sent her the well-worn plays. She was grateful and told a friend. The friend told a friend. Soon people all over the state were asking for help. He got everything he could for everybody in the way of dramag then he went at the problem of getting auditoriums in the schoolhouses. His name is Alfred Arvold. At his command at this moment he has a circulating library of thousands of plays, pageants, and rodeos, with photographs of the costumes and settings and everything that an amateur producer needs to know. His college lends them freely to individuals, community clubs, and teachers. He has taught his whole state to play. Thirty-five counties observe playday once a year. Scarcely a schoolhouse lacks a stage. Dozens of community clubs have built new halls or remodeled old ones. One pageant recently boasted 1500 actorsg 400 students throng his classesg 100,000 Dakotans have taken part in pageants he has encouraged or written or produced. The Fargo Bowl is his final achievement. He saw it a smoking refuse dump, sloping down to the river, with trees as a background and a river bank behind for a dressing room. He labored day in and day out until he got the city to take it and make of it one of the most beautiful natural amphitheatres in the world. Needless to say he has done all this without any personal fortune. His hobby-if you can call it that-has made him thousands of friends and enriched a whole state. He had that magic twist which consists in looking outward, not inward, in the expres- sion of a personal interest.-Readers' Digest, Jan. 1935. -169- Heilman Landbloom Luther Nichols Solow Gilbertson Spaulding Golseth Stevens Killzourne e win ooll1 Pclmolic Founded by Alfred Arvold in 1908, the Edwin Booth Dramatic Club has for its main purpose the promotion of worthwhile drama on the college campus. The group has monthly luncheon meetings and presents a play every term of the school year. The club uses the profits from plays for improvements in the Little Country Theater. Last year the club donated the Peer Gynt stained glass Window to the Theater. In the fall term the group presented Berkeley Square. The other plays presented were The Return of Peter Grimmn and Big Hearted Herbert.

Only students who have participated in intercollegiate and community debates are eligible for membership. Each year the club sponsors the interclass debate tournament in the fall. This year George Toman and Lloyd Flem of the senior team were the winners of the tournament. Another project of the group is the sponsorship of the high school debate tournament. There was a larger list of entries this year than ever before. Frieda Panimon assisted Mr. Hay, debate coach, in arranging the contest. The group holds monthly meetings and attempts to aid, in every way possible, the debate coach. Each year the group holds founders day celebration on the twelfth of February.

The debate season opened with various community debates in eastern North Dakota and western Minnesota. In the fall term a team from Min- nesota University met Laurence Bue and Henry Swenson in a debate here. In the winter term a N.D.A.C. team rnet Montana State College and South Dakota State Col- lege at Watertown, So. Dak. The annual dual debate was held with North Dakota Uni- versity late in February, the victories and losses being split in each case. On March 1, a N.D.A.C. team journeyed to Minneapolis for a return engagement with Minnesota Uni- versity. Six two-men debate teams from this college competed in the Concordia Tourna- ment with schools from five states. The most important debate this year was the one held with the University of Southern California. Howard Kilbourne and Victor Nordlund upheld the negative of the question Resolved that the Federal Government should adopt the Townsend Old Age Pension Plan. The debate was held in the Little Country Theater with a capacity crowd attending. The spring debate tour with the University of North Dakota took place in April. Two teams made the trip, one group going to the various towns in western Minnesota and the other traveling in North Dakota.

Putnam., Earl Turnblad, Music Director Assistant Band Director he Music epcwlmenl The scope and routine of departmental work has been materially augmented during the past year. Additions to the teaching force have been Miss Audrey Kenevan, violin teacher, and Ernst Van Vlissingen, voice teacher. Miss Kenevan has organized and directed a group of twelve girls with violins, violas, cellos, and one string bass. They have become very popular on the campus and have been heard on numerous occasions as The Singing Strings. Miss :Kenevan has been heard in violin solos and has played with the concert band as one of the French horn quartet. Mr. Van Vlissingen has or- ganized and directed a Boys' Glee Club which has appeared several times, and he has taught a large group in Vocal Culture. Miss Blakeslee has had a larger and better Girls' Glee Club than formerly, and a large class in voice work. Mrs. Tarbell has had a larger piano class than normally, and Miss Beard's classes have all been large. She has four groups in harmony, besides appreciation, counterpoint, musical history, and piano. The band-in three sections-has taken the entire time of the director, even with three student assistants. During the fall and winter the band numbered one hundred ten. The first section or concert band with forty-eight pieces has been the best balanced and most proficient group ever at the College. It has been outstanding in the quality of its intonation. Its programs have been notable for the high character of the selec- tions played and the really. proficient manner of the renditions. Two full concerts have been presented, and fourteen broadcasts--four numbers might be maintained, in- dicative of the proficiency of the band. Assistant Earl Turnblad has had the direction of the second section, and assistant James Golseth has helped in many ways. Dr. Putnam has coached the drum section of the Bugle and Drum Corps. The band has played at every rally and athletic game dur- ing the year, plus four downtown parades. Even with its cramped quarters, limited supplies of instruments and music, and poor quality of its very old equipment, the de- partment has carried on, and looks ahead to even better work for next year. f C.

John Hamlet, director, and Robert Parrott, business manager, headed a production staff of over thirty stu- dents. About one hundred and twenty students comprised the cast. Of the many acts in the show one of the most outstanding was the Cat Owl, third act, a negro phantasy which pictured the primitive superstitions and the negro's love of rhythm. The scene was laid in the cypress swamps of Louisiana, then changed to a Harlem night club, and back finally to the original swamp scene. Equally outstanding was the classical act, The Blue Danube. Various musical groups presented variations of Strauss' Blue Danube. In contrast to the classical was the modern act which was a study in jazz syncopation. One of the most interesting innovations this year was the old- fashioned melodrama which filled the black-outs between the acts. Written by Harold Peterson and directed by Horace Spauld- ing, The Octopus was a moral, domestic burlesque travesty. The songs Oh Dear, She Didn't Know What To Do, You, Cat Owlj' and Rhythm, as well as the review acts, were writ- ten by John Hamlet. Miss Frances Lamb, Dr. W. C. Hunter, and Dr. A. D. Stoesz aided the group as faculty advisers.

For the third consecutive year, the college convocation program has benefited from the lecture course made possible by the Bell Award. These lectures are presented primarily for students interested in competing in the Bell contest, but these convocations are open to all the student body. Besides the special convocation features, several campus groups present regular programs annually: Blue Key, Senior Staff, Phi Kappa Phi, Alpha Zeta and the Newman Club.

Sponsored by the Saddle and Sirloin Club, agricultural service group, the show is an annual event. In charge of the various divisions of the contest were, Frank Sorenson, sheep division, Vinton Plath, poultry, Nobel Saunders, beef cattleg Roderick Olson, hog division, Wallace Larson, dairy, Ralph Dietrich, milking show and dog show. Wallace Widdifield, the assistant manager of this year's show, will manage next year's show. Frank Sorenson won the grand champion award in the sheep division. In the beef division Edwin Matt- son won the high honors. The coed milking contest was won by Emma Dietz, repre- senting the Cosmopolitan Club. Martha Parker's Chow dog won first place in the dog show. Professor E. J. Thompson and Victor Sander of the faculty, and Lewis Rector were judges of the various events. Edwin Mattson, Grand Champion in ink Sorenson and his prize Sheep The Coed Milking Contest Beef Division, and Andrew Berglund Balance is an essential requirement in life. It is for the purpose of achieving balance that a student enters into extra-curricular activities. Scholarship, of course, is primarily important and should never be considered as a secondary aim. The wise student however finds an interest outside his scholastic Work in some worthwhile extra-curricular activity and thus fits himself better for whatever profession he intends to equip himself. The various outside activities enable a student to find an outlet for his in- clinations and talents. The most important con- tribution that such activities make to any college lies in the better understanding that they pro- mote among students.

In postal exchange matches, the team, competing with teams from the entire United States, lost only four matches out of forty- four. It defeated a team from North Dakota University in two out of two shoulder-to-shoulder matches. Besides placing second in the 7th Corps Area Intercollegiate match, the team also placed second in the 7th Corps Area district of the Hearst match. An outstanding achieve- ment of the group this year is their record score of 7704, which is the highest score in the history of the school in the National Intercollegiate match. Captain J. B. Conmy has been coaching the group this year. Each year the team sponsors a banquet at which medals are presented to the winners. At a recent election Anthony Welker was elected Cap- tain for 1935-1936, and Karl Kaess manager. ,,g'f,'jg'77 1 9 3 eTB'iEFNB'iCQf3,, -194- EOC K S I X BISON LIFE DEDICATED TC' In 1907, Mr. Sudro's first year as an in- structor here, a dozen pharmics were on the departmental roll. This year is the sixteenth that he has headed the School of Pharmacy. As Dean, he now guides every year the col- legiate careers of eighty to a hundred future druggists. While his teaching talents were being rewarded with a series of promotions, he was also helping the State Food and Drug Commissioner's Office, as assistant chemist, to become one of the most progressive any- where.

First of all, we are indebted to the student body. A yearbook is not primarily an editor's enterprise nor the editorial staff's enterprise. It is the enterprise of Mr. Average Student and only to the end that Mr. Average Student cooperates with the staff will the book represent him. The students have aided the staff in every way possible this year, and therefore we do not hesitate to state that we have, because of student body cooperation, produced a book that is representative of life on the North,Dakota Agricultural College campus. ' The Board of Publications has always been ready to assist us and has given us many valuable suggestions. To the secretary of the Board, Gladys Wood, in particular, credit is due. To our art editor, Betty Russell, who has done the entire art work of the Bison this year, we wish to express our sincere appreciation. To our campus photographer, Robert McCracken, the staff owes a great deal for the fine work he has done. The Bison staff wants to thank Carl Herdeg of the Knight Printing Co. and Art Segal of the Bureau of Engraving for all their efforts in our behalf. We feel exceptionally fortunate to have had the opportunity of dealing with two people who have always been ready at all times to give their entire attention to our problems. The editors believe that the Bison represents a very fine job of printing and engraving and we cannot give too much credit to these two firms, the Knight Printing Co. and the Bureau of Engraving. Millard Knudson and George Seiler in particular of Knight Printing Co. have cooperated with us in every way possible. We wish to thank Mr. and Mrs. McCracken of McCracken's Studio for their assistance. The portraits in the Classes Section and the group pictures were done by this studio. We wish to express our appreciation to the Readers Digest magazine for permission to reprint a portion of The Magic Twist, an article ap- pearing in their magazine for January, 1935. Lastly we take this opportunity to thank our advertisers for their support. Without advertising such an enterprise as this yearbook would be impossible. ' As a staff we have enjoyed our work on the 1936 Bison and have profited by it and in conclusion, we simply say We hope you've liked it. 4 l !
