Rabbit TO MISS ADA B. CALDWELL Art Department Head, Friend of State College Students and F in South Dakota Art Circles for Nearly Four Decades orce The 1939 Jack Rabbit is dedicated to Miss Ada B. Caldwell, for 37 years head of the Art Department of South Dakota State College. We are so dedicat- ing our book because of Miss Caldwell ' s service to State College and its students, her leadership in cultural movements in the City of Brookings and the State of South Dakota, and because of the type of teacher she exemplified. Miss Caldwell, who passed away this fall, would undoubtedly wish to be re- membered as a teacher. She chose that career in the belief that one can not be both a creator and teacher. And Miss Caldwell was eminently successful in her teaching. Today several distinguished artists point out that Miss Caldwell is in a large measure responsible for their success. Among them is Harvey Dunn, prom- inent illustrator and portrait artist, who made the painting you see reproduced on the facing page. Mr. Dunn probably expresses the feeling of scores of her former students when he writes concerning the portrait: Miss Caldwell meant so much to me that anything I might do would seem inadequate . . . With a background of training at the University of Nebraska, the Chicago Art Institute, the Pratt Institute, the Teachers ' College of Columbia University and the Chase School of Art, Miss Caldwell came to South Dakota as instructor of art at Yankton College. In 1899, she became professor of art at State College, a position she held until her retirement in 1936. But Miss Caldwell was more than a teacher. She was, in spite of her devotion to the teaching profession, an artist in her own right. Vacation periods were gen- erally spent improving her abilities in crafts and her technique of teaching but occasionally she abandoned herself to her love for landscape painting, and her work was praised by high authorities in the art world. State College will also remember Miss Caldwell as Preceptress of the College from 1907 to 1917— during which time she had charge of all women students. From 1908 to 1911 and again from 1914 to 1917, she supervised the women ' s dormitory, instituting in that period many of the fine customs of dormitory life, such as Sunday sings, a self-government association, the proctor system and receptions. In whatever project for the development of interest in the arts and crafts either South Dakota or the City of Brookings sponsored. Miss Caldwell was to be found as one of the foremost advocates. Miss Caldwell will be remembered at State College as artist, teacher and friend. South Dakota State College 13 ADA B. CALDWELL September 28, 1869— November 8, 1938 From the Painting by Harvey T.

Pugsley — who are responsible to a large measure for the rapid advancement South Da- kota State College has mad? in the past several years. Unknown to the majority of the students, members of the Board of Regents play an important part in the college career of each of them. The Re- gents represent the State of South Dakota in the government of the college. President Pugsley has worked for the interests of State College and its students for 16 years. Little else is there that we could say to add praise to such a statement. Most recent example of his loyalty to the school and his desire for the betterment of conditions for students was his de- termined effort to secure funds for the erection of a student union building and dormitories. His success is a tribute to his ability, as is the respect which he com- from the student body and fellow administrators. President C. W.

ADMINISTRATIVE STAFF The complicated machinery of finances, grading and discipline necessary for an institution as large as State College requires an administrative staff whose function looms larger each year.

DIVISION OF HOME ECONOMICS The Home Economics division aims to train young women for the job of home making, as well as employment in allied fields and the teaching of home economics. The four-year course offered in this division provides the opportunity for a general education in the field as well as specialization dur- ing the last two years. Dean Edith F. Pierson has headed the division since it was founded in 1924. In addition to her duties as dean, she instructs advanced courses of- fered by the division. Working under her direction are six instructors: Laura McArthur, Amanda Rosenquist, Alice Rosenberger, Barbara Bailey, Helen Young, Corrine Heaton, Minerva Kellogg.

Shores MILITARY STAFF It fell to the lot of seven men detailed to duty at South Dakota State College to provide instruction in military science and tactics for nearly 700 students this year. Five hundred eighty-nine men enrolled for basic training, while 90 were admitted to the advanced division of the R.O.T.C. At the head of the department personnel was Major James P. Murphy. As- sisting him were Major Rexford Shores; Major R. G. Bloedel; Captain Robert H. Vesey; Staff Sergeant Edward J. Shultz; Sergeant Richard J. Bond and Ser- geant Theodore Franklin. State College ' s R.O.T.C. ranked high this year in achievement. At Fort Snel- ling, several of the first-year advanced men won distinction in the use of weapons and in marksmanship. Cameron Lane took camp high score as expert rifleman and seven cadets — Jack Dunn, Vinal Sayre, James Randall, Edward Schroeder, Arden Brill, Lloyd Ptak and George Christianson — made records as sharp shoot- ers in camp competition. They earned a percentage of 73.6 and qualified for special mention to give the State College men one of the highest records yet estab- lished .by one institution at Fort Snelling.

From an enrollment of 35 to the present total of about 2,000 . . . and from an investment of practically nothing to one of two and one-half million dollars: that is the story of State College. Early-day politicians assembled in 1881 to receive for their localities allotments of the n ewly-born territory ' s funds. Brookings wanted the state penitentiary and its large share of state money, but it went to Sioux Falls and the Brookings representative had to accept an agricultural college for the southern portion of the territory — not much of an acquisition in those days. A bill was passed in 1881 providing that a tract of land adjacent to the town should be secured for a college site. The town was not enthusiastic and it was several months later be- fore a mass meeting was held and it was decided to buy land north of the community. Six hundred dollars was raised by popular subscription and the land was purchased. The legis- lature had gone ahead with plans and named two Brookings men and a Grand Forks resi- dent as trustees. The legislature was then asked for an appropriation of 25,000 which was authorized in college bonds, since the territory itself had little money available. An architect contracted to build the structure and ground was broken July 5, 1883, for the construction of Old Central, designed to be the south wing of the college. Bonds were difficult to sell so work on the building was discontinued and the contractor finally gave up the job to another who had the building partially completed before winter set in. But snow drifted into the basement and weakened the foundation, hindering building operations. In the spring of 1884, the appropriation was spent and the building was completed — but the interior was entirely unfinished. The legislature made no attempt to provide additional funds, but continued plans for the administration. A board of regents was appointed and Dr. George Lilley was named president of the college. Subjects to be taught included agriculture, science, mathematics, English, English literature, modern language, military tactics, veterinary science, practical business, political and domestic economy, and music. It was with 500 advanced by President Lilley that three rooms of the building were made ready for classes. In July, 1884, rooms were prepared and the adjoining land was broken up to plant trees and lay out grounds. School was scheduled to op;n September 24, but it was delayed for three weeks. Twenty-five students attended the first classes, which were in charge of four instructors, two of whom were local businessmen volunteering their services. Regular studies included common English, arithmetic, geography, physiology and United States history — courses which more nearly resembled those taught in high school, an educational luxury which Brookings did not have at that time.

Some say, however, that this is impossible as they believe the upper portion of the building was not completed at that time. To t ' le left is a picture of the first pharmacy class enrolled at South Dakota State. The other photo is of the first Industrial Collegian staff. Notice that Aubrey Lawrence, who spoke at last gear ' s commence merit, is on the right end of the back row. V£ 152 The Nineteen Thirty-Nine Jack Rabbit The legislature allotted money to build a 6,000 dormitory and hoarding house, south of Central in 1884. Today the building is being occupied by the Extension Service. Money was also provided to finish the original building, hire proper instructors and maintain the college. Five college courses were offered that year toward a bachelor of science degree — the first actual college work to be included in the curriculum. A student was offered a degree in agriculture, agriculture and domestic science, literature, civil engineering, or mechanical en- gineering. The fall term of 1884 began with Old Central providing the center for all activ- ities. The upper floor was used as a men ' s dormitory, the second floor contained a living room for R. F. Kerr, principal of the prep school and professor of history and political econ- omy and women students lived in Central until the south building was completed later that term. Eating, sleeping and reciting were done in one building for over a month until the new dormitory was finished and the women were able to move into it. About 60 students were enrolled. Better physical facilities still did not overcome the former weaknesses of the college. The underdevelopment of the entire public school system offered a problem. Twelve students at- tending in 1885 had been at the college during the previous year but they did not have any college credits, while others attending did not even have high school cards, a common hap- pening in the early ' 80 ' s. About 200 enrolled during the year and only one of the students had been born in Dakota Territory. There were three teachers to instruct these students but as the enrollment continued to increase, three more instructors were added during the year. The larger rooms on the upper floor of Old Central were partitioned into sleeping quarters for the men and these rooms opened into study rooms. The year 1885 saw the south building done and the total enrollment passed the 250 mark in February, 1886. Two teachers were added to the faculty, making a total of eight instructors for the entire group. A student council was organized to provide necessary dis- cipline, but it soon failed because the faculty ignored any attempt by the students to form their own rules of conduct. The first college catalog was a beautiful prophecy but the facilities on the hill were a long way from beautiful. The library described in glowing terms was yet a dream in the mind of the president, the museum was a myth, the farm which was to play an important part in the lives of students of agriculture was a 20-acre potato patch and the laboratory equipment in the building did not exist. One student received a bachelor of science degree in June, 1886. He was Marcus A. Sayler, registered from Swan Lake, Dakota Territory, who was State ' s first graduate. President Lilley resigned because he opposed the political ideas of the administration then in power and Dr. Lewis McLouth of Lansing, Michigan, was named to succeed him. The new administrator took office in April, 1887, but he was destined to meet with the same opposition which President Lilley received and he resigned in 1895. McLouth was a pioneer- ing educator who did much for the college. Twelve teachers made up the faculty during Mc- Louth ' s first year here. ' n I Slagld Or. E. C. PbRISHO Dk. V. E. Johnson Dr. C. Y.

Women studying domes.ic science conduct- ed the boarding house and the college, situated nearly a mile from town, became a unit almost distinct from the community of Brookings. A blizzard prevented the persons on College Hill from communicating with the town in the spring of 1888 and both town and college faced a fuel and food shortage. Classes were continued, however, and for ten days the students were unable to cross the desolate prairie from the college and its three buildings, where they ate, slept and studied. A change was made in the school calendar at the beginning of the next term. College was to continue from March to December, thus permitting the students to be at school during the crop-growing season so they could help in experiments on farm products. The system re- mained in effect for some years and enabled students to obtain jobs teaching small country schools during the winter. Because many students were needed on their parents ' farm and because many stayed away to teach, this plan was abandoned in 1897. The first formal commencement was held in 1888 and three students were graduated. Development continued and a pharmacy course was added to the curriculum and an approved military department was established. A creamery building costing 2,000 was added to the college in 1891. In August of the same year commencement exercises were held with 20 persons being graduated. The enroll- ment for the year had been 282 but only 166 of these students were taking collegiate work. The other 166 were enrolled in preparatory work and 25 faculty members were instructing the entire group. The political influence which had continually slowed up development increased during the next year and the board of trustees which administered the institution resigned as a body. This brought about many changes in the faculty, and the students objected to the in- terference. Formal protest was made and six students were expelled from school. About 70 others revolted after this action was taken and the governor of the state came to Brookings in an attempt to stop the revolt. Finally over 100 students quit school and only 80 remained to finish the term. Doctor McLouth, who was constantly under political fire resigned in 1895 and Dr. J. W. Heston replaced him in the president ' s office. President Heston was permitted to officiate without interference from political groups and during the next five years the college developed rapidly. A Board of Regents of Edu- cation was created in 1897 to control all state schools and this proved superior to providing each school with its own trustees. Electricity for lighting the buildings was first introduced in 1896 and a year later the l , college calendar was changed to the fall, winter and spring term system which is used today. A two-year preparatory course was also required to replace the one-year previously taught but eventually the prep school was discontinued. More college courses were introduced and for a 154 The Nineteen Thirty-Nine Jack Rabbit year it was decided to hold classes six days a week, but this proved unsatisfactory and was discontinued in 1899. Under President Heston, the college was organized into a set-up similar to that used now. A bachelor of science degree was offered in agriculture, engineer- ing and physics, and four-year courses in electrical and civil engineering were introduced. The term of 1900-01 was a milestone in the history of State College. The 500 enroll- ment mark was finally reached and the entire student body celebrated the occasion. Even on its 16th birthday the college was inadequately provided with buildings and those in use were still in need of repair from a tornado which struck in 1899 and carried away the observa- tory dome on Old North. After a mild stir in the political world, Doctor Heston retired from office in 1903 and James Chalmers was named president. Chalmers was a competent educator and was chosen because he was not a resident of the state and therefore had a better chance to escape political pressure. The total enrollment under Chalmers grew from 469 in 1903 to 571 at the end of his term in 1906. The entrance requirements of the institution continued to remain low but he managed to establish the college work on a much higher plane than it was previously. Presi- dent Chalmers took up residence in Woodbine Cottage, built by Doctor McLouth and pur- chased by the state after the former president resigned from office. The cottage, adjacent to the campus, was used for a time as a women ' s dormitory and as a music department, but since 1903 each president of the school has made it his home. Dr. Robert L. Slagle, former State College instructor and president of the School of Mines, became president in 1906 when Chalmers was transferred to the State University as president. His administration saw a rise in enrollment from 570 to a total of 903 in 1914 when he resigned. A women ' s dormitory was constructed in 1907 and two years later the dairy barn and a chemistry building annex were built. In 1911 construction of an administra- tion and agricultural building was begun. From 34 instructors in 1906, the faculty grew to 60 in 1912 and to nearly 200 today. The curriculum was enlarged and improved and by 1910 entrance requirements for State College were those of a standard institution. President Slagle resigned in 1914 and Dean G. L. Brown acted as president until Dr. Elwood C. Perisho, former dean at the University of South Dakota, was named to head the school. Specialized courses of training were developed under Doctor Perisho. In 1917 appropriations were approved for the completion of the administration building, armory, stock judging pavilion, creamery building, women ' s dormitory and a poultry plant. Then in 1918 the nation entered the World War. Perisho was on leave of absence during the year, and Dean Brown was again acting president. The president resigned in 1919 and went overseas to engage in agricultural work. Dr. Willis E. Johnson, former president of Northern Normal, became president. The day that war was declared by the United States a special assembly of students gathered in the administration building. A color guard marched to the front of the assembly hall and President Wilson ' s war message was read. Dean Brown has described the occasion as the most impressive assembly ever held at the college. During that summer, the college be- came a training camp for soldiers and continued to carry on these activities until the armis- tice was signed. Special courses were also offered for the training of radio operators, me- chanics, electricians, carpenters, auto mechanics and blacksmiths. Regular classes continued but studies were given little thought by students and faculty alike. Men below draft age entered the college at government expense to receive military training and await call. A stu- dent army training corps was organized and everyone concentrated on the war. The war situ- ation caused a decline in enrollment from 1.124 in 1916 to 1,075 in 1918. After the armis- service men returned to the school and in 1920 the government built the structure now used as a men ' s dormitory to house the injured men who came to State College for col- lege training at government expense. In 1923 prep school work was discontinued. The printing department and agricultural division were created in 1920. President Johnson resigned in 1923. and President C. W. Pugsley, former assist ant sec- ret, iry of agriculture at Washington, D. C, became head of State College. During the Johnson administration enrollment had increased nearly 100 per cent and today President South Dakota State College 155 Pugsley has witnessed a total enrollment of nearly 2,300 students, about 1,200 of whom are taking regular collegiate work. The Lincoln Memorial Library was completed in 1927 and the beautiful structure which had long been the dream of many administrators became a reality. President Coolidge dedi- cated the library, and Mrs. Coolidge laid the memorial stone of Sylvan Theater. Two famous former State College students contributed their talent to make the library an impressive building. Gilbert Riswold, who began his art study in the art department here, made a statue of Abraham Lincoln for the Class of ' 25 and Harvey Dunn, prominent illustrator and por- trait artist, made paintings of Dean Brown and the late Vice-Dean H. B. Mathews. Charles Coughlin, a former student, in 1929 gave State College the famous Coughlin Campanile, and in 1928, a new chemistry building was erected.

The chief difference in this year ' s presentation of this phase of col- lege life is expansion of the Hobo Day section. We have made this change be- cause we feel that Hobo Day plays as important a part in the program of pub- licity for State College as any one other thing. In addition, it is more effective as an enthusiasm-rouser than nearly all other activities rolled together. Notice that Senior Celebrities has replaced Who ' s Which. This change was made with the thought in mind that Senior Celebrities will be truly honorary. Organizations take up a good share of this book. Many of them are worth- while.

STUDENT ADMINISTRATORS Thirteen Students, Several Faculty Members Compose Board of Control; Decide All Business Relating to Student Association. Once a month, or whenever business warrants, 13 students and several faculty members meet to discuss affairs of the Student Association of State College. The Board of Control is empowered with final approval or rejection of any action that concerns student funds or activities. It nominates presidents and vice-presidents of the Association, decides what awards shall be presented, advises the student president on matters about Hobo Day, approves publication officials and this year re-allocated the student activity ticket fee. Members of the Board this year included Irwin Johnson, Allen Schroeder and Curtis Severson, representing the general science division; Irene Voigt and Marie Peterson from the home economics division; Palmer Dragsten, John Herron, en- gineers; Kenneth Keller, Francis Jornlin, Henry Lardy, representatives of theAgs, and Chan Shirley, elected by the Pharmics. Faculty members included Kenneth Hayter, college business agent and secretary of the Board; E. R. Binnewies, chairman of student activities; D. B. Doner, registrar, and Vivian V. Volstorff, dean of women. Dave Pearson, Student Association president, was chairman of the Board of Control, and Bob McCormiclc held a place among the student administrators dtj to his holding the office of vice-president of the Association. 188 The Nineteen Thirty-Nine Jack Rabbit FORENSIC COUNCIL Plans Year ' s Program to Provide Greatest Amount of Training for Greatest Number of Speech Students. In planning the year ' s activities, the Forensic Council chose those experiences which would provide the greatest amount of training for the greatest number of students. The general policy has been to give speech contest work in addition to situations designed primarily to promote speaker-audience relationship. Ordinar- ily the experience-for-all policy means difficulty in competing with other schools in forensic contests, but such has not been the case at State this. year. Success of State ' s entries shows the value of the policy. The specific function of the Forensic Council is to plan and arrange the extra-curricular activities of the speech depart- ment. The council decides which tournaments shall be attended and the number of students who can go, plans a budget, and gives awards. Events designed to further speaker-audience relationships included speeches before the high schools of Colman and Sioux Falls, a gathering of high school de- baters at a tournament at Redfield, and before a local service club. Members of the council are: Irwin Johnson, debate manager; Mavis Paterson, Pi Kappa Delta president; Lorraine Friess, dramatics representative; D. B. Doner, George McCarty and Earl James, faculty representatives. South Dakota State MmM ft D 3 College I it 759 p Bottom Row: Kenneth Hayter Top Row: Mack Jones, Ji L. E. Donelson. Ralph L. Patty, E.

ATHLETIC COUNCIL Faculty Board and Student Council Combine Forces This Year to More Effectively Regulate Athletic Affairs. Consisting of seven members of the faculty staff and five student athletes, the athletic board and student athletic council have been holding joint meetings this year. H. C. Severin, zoology professor and secretary of the North Central Athletic Association, chairmans the joint committee, while Kenneth S. Hayter, college business agent, is the committee secretary. Other faculty members on the joint council are Athletic Director Bob Coffey; Loren E. Donelson, head of the print- ing and rural journalism department and college publicity director; H. Dean Stallings, librarian and assistant track coach; Ralph L. Patty, professor of agricul- tural engineering, and E. R. Binnewies, chairman of the college activities com- mittee. Student representatives include Allen Schroeder, star junior halfback, Mack Jones and Roy Williams, co-captains of the 1939 basketball team, and Jim Em- merich and Arndt Mueller, next year ' s football captains. One of the most progressive policy-determining bodies on the campus this year, the athletic council has formulated many changes in the athletic setup.

Five members of the Music Council — one from each musical organization on the campus and two from the music faculty — govern activities of the musical groups of State College and control the expenditure of funds to bring musical talent to the State College campus. The Council, which was inagurated approximately 11 years ago, approves of any trips the military band, orchestra or chorus might take. In addition to these duties, the Council brought to State the famous Page-Stone Ballet and Kathryn Witwer, soprano from the Chicago Civic Opera Company. The Council also sponsors the annual concerts which are presented by the military band, the symphony orchestra and the chorus. During the spring quarter, it staged the Gilbert and Sullivan operetta, Trial by Jury. Faculty members on the Council are Prof. Carl Christensen, head of the music department, and Prof. W. A.

PUBLICATIONS COUNCIL Determines Policies, Hires Salaried Members of Staffs of All Publications on State College Campus. Who shall edit the college publications and how they shall edit them are the problems which the Publications Council must solve, so about once a month or whenever business necessitates, the group gets together in L. E. Donelson ' s office and publications puzzles are worked out. The Council hires salaried members of staffs of The Industrial Colle- gian and The Jack Rabbit, makes provisions for each publication under its jur- isdiction, passes on the types of advertising appearing in every publication and makes decisions concerning any new publication that may crop up. Members during the 1938-39 school year were: Loren E. Donelson, head of the journalism department; E. R. Binnewies, faculty representative from the Board of Control; Bob Smith, editor of The Jack Rabbit and chairman of the Council; Marion Lucca, business manager of The Jack Rabbit; Charles Cleve- land, editor of The Collegian; Mason Ely, Collegian business manager, and ,i.

Everyone agreed there were at least 28,000 gathered along the parade line, but the Brookings police, who should know, stubbornly held out for 30,000.

Rabbit What with serenades in the women ' s dormitories, visits to the cafes near the cam- pus, and trips to see certain faculty members, new Ag Clubbers set the pace for other organizations and divisions. Official starter of Hobo Week was the annual whisker-judging contest. After weeks of preening, nearly 100 Weary Willies were proud enough of their facial foliage to submit to the delicate tests of the judges. It was the reflective rubbing of Helen Wood ' s cheek test which singled out Raymond Kretchmer from among a score of aspirants toward the ticklish beard laurels. Yardstick in hand, George LeGeros chose John Reeve as the possessor of the longest growth of hirsute adornment. Mrs. Earl R. Series, who as a student participated in the first Hobo Day, viewed the mass of whisker-covered faces and finally named Jim Lueders as possessor of the most beautiful beard on the campus. Then she brought Frank Emly forth to display his cultivated chin and cheeks as the ugliest beard. A. A. Moritz selected Delbert Wylie for the honor of growing the thickest beard. With Merrill E. (Casey) Jarchow ' s repartee keeping the spirit of the occasion at top speed, the annual Blue Key smoker on Wednesday evening of Hobo Week was the men ' s contribution to the early homecoming festivities and the second red-letter event of the week. Every available ticket for the annual dinner and smoker, where college men are men and the women are merely waitresses, was sold. Headliners on the program were Major Jas. P. Murphy, head of the military department; I. J. Bibby, Brookings creamery owner and former State College athlete; Jack Barnes, head football coach; Bob Riddell and Lloyd Ptak, co-captains of the 1938 Jack- rabbit eleven; Doctor Harold A. Miller, a member of the college medical staff who dis- cussed the first Hobo Day football game. when State nipped the Yankton College eleven in the final minutes of play, and Dave Pearson, student president. College men were feted at a free show at the Fad Theater after the smoker. , The coeds took over the pre-Hobo Day fhursday evening when they staged South Dakota State College 213 their annual torchlight parade through the business district of Brookings. A pep meeting held on Main Street at the conclusion of the parade was followed by a raid on the Fad Theater, which marked the end of such spectacular affairs. Friday was given over to final preparations. Al- ready organizations had put in plenty of time on floats. Jug the U and State Plays to Win plac- ards had been printed and distributed around the campus, merchants had put up special Hobo Day displays, and huge Jug the U banners had been hung from the dormitories. But last-minute work in preparation for the gala homecoming was completed Friday, when Dean G. L. Brown dismissed classes for the day. Feverish activity of touching up the floats centered in the livestock judging pavilion, where more than a score of floats were readied for the parade. Hobo Day souvenir football programs, published by Sigma Delta Chi, journalistic fraternity, went on sale, with members of the freshman football squad as salesmen. Pre-Hobo Day activities were climaxed Friday evening at the big pep rally and with a dance sponsored in the college armory by the Ag Club. The football squad was introduced to the pep-fest crowd in the Coolidge Sylvan Theater and several prominent alumni greeted the assembled students and graduates. A special display of fireworks was arranged by engineering students for the occasion and Johnny Buck and his orchestra played for the student-alumni dance follow- ing the pep meeting. Hobo Day dawned at its scheduled time, Pbut it dawned brighter than even the most enthusiastic optimists had hoped. Deserted until 8:30, the campus slowly took on a car- nival atmosphere as beautiful floats were rolled onto the campus drive. Ragged hoboes and hoboettes straggled in, and the ever- greens was transformed into a virtual jungle. Groups of bandsmen appeared and the gigantic parade slowly took form until the drive looked like carnival headquarters ' ' Ten uniformed bands marched in the P?£ ki rade, one of the longest in the history of the local homecoming celebration, with jS|ate Hybnd Horse College represented by three marching musi- 214 The Nineteen Thirty-Nine Jack Rabbit cal organizations. Professor Carl Christensen ' s 128-piece Military Band featured a modern front with five feminine baton-wielders leading the organization. Drum majorettes, who twirled their batons as aides to Drum Major Delmont Byrn, were Rachael Paterson, Eileen Kruse, Joan Swanson, Ar- dis Pingel and Irene Lott. Prof. Eugene Burr led a special alumni band in the parade, and the 35-piece girls ' band also marched. Representing the Univer- sity of South Dakota, was an 87- piece Military Band. Outstanding bands from high schools in the Brookings territory were also invited to take part in the homecoming parade, with these bands accepting : Arlington, White, Lake Preston, South Shore, Brookings and Dell Rapids. The longest parade in the history of the home- coming featured also the largest number of floats and the most hoboes and hoboettes ever to parade in Brookings. The pharmacy division took first honors among the beautiful floats with its portrayal of Walt Disney ' s movie cartoon characters, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Second honors in the awards for beautiful floats were cap- tured by the horticulture department, with a lovely Say It With Flowers theme. The ag engineers topped contestants in the race for most clever laurels with a hybrid horse, combining the beauty and life of the horse with the economy and efficiency of the tractor. The Art Club ' s many-colored Mexican pig bank was awarded second prize in that division. Tom Grove ' s mule carrying the sign, This Is One Jackass That Isn ' t Betting on the U, gained first honors in the competition for the best stunt. The poultry department ' s Chicken-cleaning, which featured men in State football uniforms cleaning a bunch of chickens from the U, was given second place by the judges. Lawrence (Larry) Hoscheid and Anita Quast, as crummy a pair of Weary Willies as ever hopped a freight, were named as king and queen of the homecoming. They were presented with a silver plaque at the football game during the afternoon. Paramount newsreel cameramen were present at the parade in the morning and also ..  Day Royalty Q South Dakota State College 215 The University ' s Coyotes, who later won the North Central conference championship and who were honored as the greatest athletic team in South Da- kota during 1938, beat the home team, 7-0, with Devick crashing over the State goal line for a touchdown and Berry placekicking an extra point. It was the narrowest victory the cham- pions scored in North Central competition during the year. A more complete account of the game is included in the Jack Rabbit athletic section. The half-time period was blighted by an unfor- tunate confusion as to the time allowed each of the two bands — the military bands of the University and of State College — for performance on the field. The incident brought on a minor verbal feud be- tween students of the U and S.D.S.C, which cul- minated in articles in the student weeklies of both schools. Grandstands, extra bleachers and standing room were sold out for the big contest of the year, with large delegations of fans for both teams attending. Homecoming festivities ended with the Student Association dance in the college armory during the evening. Nat Towles and his 14-piece Negro band played for the affair. A highlight of the evening came when Student Prexy Dave Pearson surrendered his shirt (by proxy) to Dennis Seacat, University student president, as the payoff in a unique bet on the outcome of the football game. And another Hobo Day was history. ft ft ft Sj BBiflS V i T3 216 The Nineteen Thirty-Nine Jack Rabbit ALL-TIME HOBO DAY RECORD Since 1912 when the Jackrabbits snatched a last-minute 6-to-3 victory over the Yankton College Greyhounds in the first Hobo Day football game, the Yel- low and Blue eleven has lost only six of 26 homecoming games. In 1915 the Rabbits first tackled the University ' s Coyotes on Hobo Day, los- ing that first homecoming game, 7 to 0. In 1922 the present system whereby the Jackrabbits and Coyotes meet every other Hobo Day was started. In ten Hobo Day games between the South Dakota rivals.

That was in the days of night shirts, long hair, tight pants, barrel staves, and expensive razor blades — and because of all this, someone gave birth to this swell idea of having a good time in a different way, an idea that has developed into our present Hobo Day. Of course, there wasn ' t a campanile, a library and a few of the other out- standing buildings now dominating the campus. But there was the same kind of a student body — and it needed a homecoming day — so here ' s how it went. One night somebody decided to have a parade. It wasn ' t very cold and the boys wanted something different, so they took out their nightshirts (just about everybody wore the things then) and donned them for the march down through Brookings, with torches blazing and band blaring. The next morning who should show up in c lass but a number of wildly-paint- ed Indian squaws and some rather uncouth-looking bums. Two classes that morn- ing, then the assortment of humanity headed for the depot to greet the Yankton football team. As could be expected, the football game was a humdinger (State won, 6 to 3), everybody had a swell time and the men treated themselves to a bath and shave. But before that climax, the hungry mob made the rounds of Brookings homes, asking — and getting — handouts. Christy had also rounded up a hobo band to add to the color of the homecoming. And that was the first Hobo Day. The homecoming brain-child grew. Soon there were floats, just a few, of course, but a beginning. Then the men let their beards grow for two weeks in ad- vance, soon three weeks, and now it ' s for a full month. It became one of the ex- pressed purposes of the majo rity of organizations on the campus to take part in the Hobo Day parade and for the past several years, participation has been one hundred per cent. Back in 1924, Dr. N. E. Hansen had a chrysanthemum show on Hobo Day, and 24,000 people dropped around to look over his beautiful collection of flow- ers — which also means that they took in most of the other festivities and made up the largest crowd ever recorded prior to 1938. Each year the day has gained fame throughout the Northwest; until now it is looked forward to by the entire region. The national publicity gained in the last few years through the annual beard-growing contest has placed Hobo Day tops among homecomings. 218 The Nineteen Thirty-Nine Jack Rabbit South Dakota State College m 219 220 The Nineteen Thirty-Nine Jack Rabbit H2M South Dakota State College 221 fiHiir HT 222 The Nineteen Thirty-Nine Jack Rabbit South Dakota State College i 223 ? r ATHLETICS— FOOTBALL, TRACK, BASKET- BALL, BOXING, KITTENBALL, TENNIS: THEY ALL HAVE A PLACE HERE AT STATE COLLEGE T I 226 The Nineteen Thirty-Nine Jack Rabbit A bore Robert E.

S rS Z Complete Revision of Athletic Department Brings Intensification of Sports Program. Bob Coffey Is New Athletic Director. With the complete revision of the athletic department at State College this fall, sports have advanced both in scope of the activities and in the success that they have enjoyed. Heading the list of officials this year is Robert Coffey, athletic director. Although having held his position but a few months, his influence has already been considerable. Coffey, an alumnus of State, was a star football player here for his four years in college, and last spring completed 1 3 years of successful coaching at Brookings High School. He succeeded Coach R. H. Threlfall. James (Jimmy) Baker, Rabbit cage mentor, has ended his second year as head basketball coach at State. A Minnesota graduate of 1936, he was a three- year letterman in basketball besides playing on the football team and being a member of the track squad there. His two basketball teams at State College have ranked fourth in the North Central conference. Baker is also head track coach. He is assisted in this work by H. Dean Stallings. South Dakota State College 227 Taking over the reins of the 1939 Jackrabbit football squad after losing many players through graduation, Coach Jack Barnes brought the State squad from sixth position in 1937 to a fourth place in the conference in 1938. Jack came to State from Utah University and is steadily improving the calibre of the Rabbit squads. Alfred (Al) Arndt, former State basketball and football star, served his second year here as assistant football coach and manager of freshman basketball. Arndt played one year of professional football after his graduation from college. His 1938 Bunnies won four of their six encounters and should provide valuable material for the varsity squad next fall. Miss Nell Kendall is head of the women ' s physical education department. She has, during her 22 years here, inaugurated an intensive program of athletic events for women of the college, as well as having an important part in staging various events such as the Yellow and Blue Rhapsody and the annual May Fete. Two student athletic managers — George Schanck and Tom Schultz — were appointed by the athletic department this year. Their responsibility included detailed care of all athletic equipment, charting of practice games, recording the conditioning and weight of players, care of visiting teams and general assistance to the athletic staff. Schultz and Schanck were recommended to the athletic de- partment by Blue Key, service fraternity. Several members of the Monogram Club and the athletic teams have aided the department in sponsoring intra-mural activities. Lloyd Ptak, co-captain of the football squad, headed intra-mural basketball and baseball, while Jerry Stab- lein, all-conference tackle and college heavy-weight champion, handled the intra- mural boxing program. Ptak was assisted in the student hard-court contests by members of an officiating class. 228 The Nineteen Thirty-Nine Jack Rabbit Front Row: Stenson, Atterbury, Schwandt, Schroeder, Fergen, Engler, Dyson, Carr, Mueller, Ulrich.

THE 1938 FOOTBALL SEASON Jack Barnes ' Boys Push Their Way to Fourth Place in North Central Conference — Two Notches Above 1937 Ranking. tMade up of a group of inexperienced but promising sophomores, the State College Jackrabbits, coached by Jack Barnes, rose to a fourth-place ranking in the North Central Conference, two notches above the previous season. The Rabbits were successful in defeating Moor- head Teachers, Morningside and Omaha Universi- ty, while losing to the School of Mines, North Da- kota U, St. Norbert ' s, and South Dakota U. If glancing at the won-and-lost column were to Lloyd Ptak be regarded as a criterion, the 1938 season might be termed a mediocre one for the Rabbits. However, two factors — the introduc- tion of a new system and graduation of a large number of Rabbit stars the pre- vious year — must be taken into consideration in summing up the team ' s success. For their first game under a new mentor, the Jackrabbits traveled to Rapid %ity to encounter the School of Mines and suffer an 18-7 defeat before a home- ing crowd of 4,000 fans, September 16. South Dakota State College 229 It looks like Brill is being tackled by a number of University players in this picture of the State-University game Hobo Day. In the first half, Coach Barnes ' proteges, led by Allen Schroeder, pushed the Hardrocker eleven all over the field. The State College squad scored early as Schroeder recovered Whaley ' s fumble on the Miners ' eight-yard stripe and drove over for a touchdown. Although losing the game, State led in yards gained from scrimmage, picking up 205, to the Mines ' 167. One major reason for the loss was that Ptak was out with injuries. The turning point came early in the second quarter when a clipping penalty robbed Schroeder of a 52-yard touchdown run. Soon afterwards, King, substitute tackle, blocked a State punt, batted it over the goal line and fell on it for the Miners ' first score. They failed to convert the extra point and the Jacks left the field at halftime sport- ing a 7-6 lead. In the second half the Ray-Whaley combination clicked and the Hardrockers scored their second counter. The Miners scored their last touchdown in the final quarter. The Rabbit eleven looked bril- liant in the first half, but the attack bogged down after the Westerners ' initial score. State dropped its second encounter September 23, falling victim to the touchdown barrage of North Dakota University. The score was 37-0. Riddled with injuries and disgruntled by the defeat at Rapid City, the Rabbits had little success against North Dakota as Fritz Pollard raced across the goal line in the first five minutes to start the scoring. North Dakota continued its stiff pace, tallying twice in the first and twice in the second quarter and winding up with two touchdowns in the third quarter. The North Dakota backs ran wild, piling up a tremendous total yardage. 230 The Nineteen Thirty-Nine Jack Rabbit Ptak is receiving the hall fr in this shot taken during the North Dakota State game. We could see ' em, but we couldn ' t seem to catch them, Coach Barnes said in summarizing State ' s failure to stop Pollard and Johnson, Negro speedsters. The Rabbits ' greatest scoring opportunity came in the final minutes of play, when they advanced to the five-yard stripe after recovering a fumble on the North Da- kota 49-yard line. The gun halted the 44-yard advance. On October 1 the Jacks broke forth with a three-touchdown outburst in the first half of their encounter with the Omaha University Cardinals and won their first conference victory of the season, 28-6. The Rabbits presented a versatile attack, piling up almost 300 yards from scrimmage to account for 13 fi rst downs. State scored its first touchdown as Engler broke off tackle and scrambled 52 yards to the end zone after he recovered a Cardinal fumble. Schroeder booted the extra point. The Rabbits scored again in the first quarter as Engler passed to Riddell for 25 yards and Ptak smashed over for the counter. Both elevens scored in the second period on aerial maneuvers. State ' s final points came in the fourth quarter as Engler advanced to the Cardinal three-yard line, from where Ptak plunged over. South Dakota State College 231 Schroeder starts out on one of his long hikes. Picture was taken at the University game Hobo Day. A heady little quarterback, Bob Toonen, spelled defeat for the Rabbits as he booted a field goal in the second period, and, not content with that, ran 48 yards in the second quarter to score the only touchdown of the game as St. Norbert ' s College triumphed 9-0 over the South Dakota team, October 8. The boys from the Badger state scored late in the second quarter. Early in the second half, Toonen intercepted one of Engler ' s heaves and ran 48 yards to com- plete the day ' s scoring although State threatened twice. A long pass from Engler to Riddell placed the ball on the St. Norbert 11 -yard line in the opening canto after the Rabbits had recovered a fumble on the Knights ' 32. But the threat was stemmed by a 15-yard holding penalty. The final South Dakota march was stopped by the gun, after two passes had placed the ball on the St. Norbert 20. Characterized by sparkling defensive play, and an accurate passing attack, the Jackrabbits gave one of their finest performances of the year October 15, when they took their second conference victory from Morningside, 14-13. Morningside opened the scoring in the first quarter when Burrow, Maroon signal-caller, went over on a cutback play, after a 75-yard march by the Maroons. 232 The Nineteen Thirty-Nine Jack. Rabbit Another State-University game pho ig tackled in mighty fine style. The Morningside score seemed to touch off the spark of the Rabbit offensive, as they scored on two successive thrusts. Engler provided the first score when, after failing to find a receiver in the clear, he decided to run with the ball and covered the remaining 14 yards unmolested. The Rabbits scored the winning counter as Arden Brill reversed his field and traveled 70 yards to pay-dirt. A pass from Halford to Buckingham for a touch- down was the only threat that the Rabbits failed to squelch in the last half, as the desperate Maroons attempted to overcome the advantage of Barnes ' men. In their next game, October 22, the Brookings boys defeated Moorhead Teachers 14-6, after trailing in the third quarter 6-2. It was after Moorhead had made a touchdown early in the second half that Len Engler electrified the victory- hungry fans with a 55-yard gallop. Paced by this spectacular display, the infuri- ated Rabbits put the game on ice midway in the final period. Riddell intercepted a pass on the enemy ' s 36, Brill passed to Schroeder to the 20. Schroeder slashed his way to the two and from there Ptak scored. State tallied in the first quarter when Riddell and Bill Mattison blocked a Moorhead punt in the end zone for a safety. South Dakota State College 233 «. Unable to solve or penetrate their arch-rival ' s strong defense, the Jackrabbits dropped their Hobo Day encounter to the University of South Dakota, 7-0, be- fore the crowd of nearly 15,000 people that packed State Field October 29. The Coyotes kept possession of the Little Brown Jug by virtue of their sterling line play, which halted any State threat, coupled with a speedy offense which ripped the lighter and less-experienced Rabbit line to shreds. Recovering several fumbles after long Coyote penetrations, together with some fine booting by Brill and Schroeder, the Rabbits suppressed their opponents for the first half. But the red-clad visitors were not to be denied. In the third period, the Coyotes started a drive on their own 49-yard line which carried them 51 yards for the only score of the day, although the University threatened several times thereafter. The slashing drives of Wernli, Devick and Berry, combined with the passing of End Ernie Gunderson, were instrumental in the drive, with Devick scoring on a one-foot plunge. Dick Berry converted and the ball game was over. Except for heads-up playing displayed by the losers in recovering fumbles, SDU might have easily rolled up a much larger score in retaining the jug. 5 1 Y .

Co-captain Riddell, playing his last game for the Yellow and Blue, made a dramatic attempt at victory as he blocked a Bison punt and recovered on the Northerner ' s two-yard marker from where Halfback Engler scored. From that moment on it was only a question of time, as the Bison drove through the Rabbit defense. In the second quarter, the Bison marched 66 yards for a touchdown. Two minutes later, Maxwell, Bison end, blocked a State punt and recovered it in the shadow of the Rabbit goal posts. Wheeler again took the pigskin over. it it it A season-end glimpse at prospects for next year show that a winning team is not an impossibility. For Barnes loses but six men from this year ' s squad, while retaining 19 lettermen. On top of that, a flock of 26 promising yearlings will be coming up from the frosh ranks to replace lost veterans.

Scoring a total of 720 points, the Rabbits succeeded in win- ning 10 of their 19 scheduled games against some of the toughest college teams in the Middle West. Co-captains Mack Jones and Roy Williams are the only players who will be lost through graduation. The Jackrabbits started off the season by forcing the highly-touted Minnesota University cagers to extend themselves for a 46-36 victory. Moving on to Northfield, the State College cagers lost the second game of their early-season tour to Carleton, 33-32, in a see-saw battle. A field goal by Center Nelson gave the Carls the victory in the final seconds of play. j After blasting out an easy 65-28 win over Eastern Normal, the rampaging Rabbits went on to score home-court victories over St. Thomas and Carleton. Christmas vacation brought a slump, and the Jackrabbits dropped games to Gus- South Dakota State College 237 tavus Adolphus, Superior Teachers College and St. Thomas on successive nights, by 42-22, 43-32, and 48-36 scores, respectively. This rigorous pre-conference schedule done, Coach Bakers ' Jackrabbits took a step in the wrong direction when the North Dakota Bison edged them out, 37-33, in the initial conference conflict on the armory floor. State held an appar- ently commanding (27-22) lead with only seven minutes remaining but the fighting NDAC team came back to tie up the ball game at 29-all and then go on to win in the last 50 seconds as Center Larry Tanberg sank three goals. Bob Oddy, State guard, paced the Rabbit attack with four field goals and an equal nu mber of free-throws. The Jackrabbits staved off a late-period rally to enter the North Central win column against the Omaha Cardinals, 51-48, in their second conference clash. Roy Williams turned in a fine floor game and collected 12 points. Displaying fine offensive power in the front court as Williams, Laur and Holdhusen, all forwards, registered 32 points, the Jacks moved into a 42-32 lead at the three-quarter gun, and displayed enough offensive strategy to halt the Cardinals ' attack in the final minutes. The Omahans presented two scoring threats in Donahue and Pflasterer, who accounted for 30 points between them. Pouring baskets through the hoop from all angles, the State College Rabbits took an early 14-3 lead and then eased through as they outscored Augustana Col- lege, 50-44, January 16. With the spectators barely settled back into their seats, Sunny Jim Fergen, who tallied 12 points for the Jacks, flipped a beautiful long shot through the cords to set the hot Rabbits off on their scoring barrage. After Roy Williams had cashed in on a pair of charity tosses and Aldrich, Augie for- ward, had netted a short one, Stu Holdhusen, Fergen and Mack Jones, who got two of them, whipped four spectacular long ones to give the State team their com- manding margin. Wendell And 238 The Nineteen Thirty-Nine Jack Rabbit Jh 1: l The Bakermen whipped four field goals through the hoop in the final minutes of play against the Iowa Teachers ' basketeers to turn in a second North Central conference victory in three starts by a 50-41 score. Inspired by the play of Wil- liams and Fergen, who accounted for eight of the last nine points between them, and paced by the 13 -point high total of Wendel l Hambone Andrews, the Rabbits gave one of their best offensive and defensive exhibitions of the year. Buzz Laur, lanky State pivotman, turned in a superlative defensive exhibition against the Panthers. State ventured forth on their third road trip of the year into the warring grounds of the northern conference schools and emerged with a thrilling 38-36 victory over North Dakota State to offset their 39-22 defeat at the hands of Clem Letich ' s powerful Sioux the next evening. The victory over NDAC evened up the season ' s count with that quintet and represented State ' s first victory away from home in seven road contests. Andrews and Laur collected 19 points each in the two games to lead State ' s offensive attack for the trip. In the next contest — at Fargo — the Jackrabbits took advantage of their su- perior height to out-maneuver the Bison and hold their lead during the last three periods, and won the game, 38-36. At Grand Forks the 13 points totaled by Bill McCosh, Sioux hot-shot, and the inspired performance of Bernie White, sophomore guard who collected 10 points, were too much for the Rabbits and they were never a serious threat to the NoDaks. Some 2,000 fans saw a determined State College basketball team come from ' way behind to knock off the North Dakota Sioux on the home court. After trailing the Northerners 9-3 at the end of the first quarter, the Rabbits, led by Roy Williams and Jim Fergen, began the rally which enabled the home team to tie the score 15-all at the half and then go on to win, 41-31, their first victory over South Dakota State College 239 North Dakota in 10 years. Sensational defensive play by Laur held Bill McCosh high-scoring NoDak forward, to a meagre five points while Jim Fergen, State ' s all-conference guard, led the State scoring with 1 1 points. State ' s loss to Rube Hoy ' s South Dakota Coyotes came from the Rabbits ' inability to hit the hoop, while their rivals sank uncanny shots from any and all angles of the floor. The score was 31-28. Although the Rabbits held a 7-5 lead early in the first period, the red-clad Coyotes were not to be denied and pulled away to an insurmountable 22-9 half-time lead. And, although the Yellow and Blue cagers came back strong in the second half, they were unable to catch up with the smooth- functioning University men. Rollie Edberg, University guard, and Jim Fergen, State defensive star, led the scoring for the two teams with eight counters each. But it was Maynard Ingalls who captured the spotlight with his brilliant all-around floor play. A basket by Guard Don Snyder in the last 10 seconds of play gave Morning- side a 35-33 victory over the State College Rabbits. The defeat, which was the fourth conference loss of the season, shoved the Jacks back to a fifth-place rank- ing. Jim Fergen rang up 13 points before he was taken from the game in the This Oddy-on-the-floor picture was taken during the SDU game played here. 240 The Nineteen Thirty-Nine Jack Rabbit At the left is a photo of Williams reaching high to sink one during the St. Thomas game here. The other picture is of the State College boys taking time out during the North Dakota University game. third period. State made a spectacular rally in the second half to take the lead with a minute to go, after trailing 17-12 at halftime. Laur led the Rabbits during the latter part of the game with his great floor play. He also collected eight points while holding Don Michaelson, Maroon pivot man, to nine points. Wendell Andrews also tallied seven points for the losers. Tired and discouraged after dropping a heart-breaker to Morningside two nights before, the State College cagers possessed just enough stamina to eke out a close, hard-fought 48-45 win over Augustana at Sioux Falls February 18. Al- though the Rabbits pulled into a big early-game lead and appeared destined to walk away from their opponents, the Augies came back strong to lead at the three quarter mark and threaten all the way. After Bob Oddy had lit the spark with a charity toss soon after the opening whistle, the Bakermen, with Fergen, Laur and Williams leading the scoring attack, rolled up their huge margin, leading 8-2 at the quarter and 19-7 midway in the second period. Reaching the high peak that had been predicted of them by early-season dopesters, the State College Rabbits played beautiful ball in scoring a 32-30 vie- South Dakota State College 241 tory over the North Central champions, SDU, at Vermillion in the season ' s finale. While Laur was the most outstanding of State players, the entire squad- Williams, Fergen, Oddy, and Andrews — must be given credit for fine perfor- mances. 1939 INDIVIDUAL SCORING RECORDS Free Field Free Throw Conference Total Personal Goals Throws Percentage Points Points Fouls Roy Williams, forward 61 22-41 53 61 144 41 Wendell Andrews, forward __ 56 24-51 47 74 136 30 Winford Laur, center 45 45-73 61 76 135 33 Jim Fergen, guard 47 34-50 68 61 128 37 Bob Oddy, guard 16 36-63 60 36 68 52 Stuart Holdhusen, forward __ 16 13-20 65 16 45 8 Loren Thornton, forward 10 8-14 57 28 9 Len Engler, guard 4 1-8 12 6 9 5 Total number of points scored bv team this year: 720.

THE BUNNIES ' RECORD Four wins against two defeats — that ' s the record boasted by the South Da- kota State College Freshman basketball team during 1939. The Bunnies were successful in their first four attempts as they fairly blasted Tracy Junior College (twice) , S.D.U. Pups and Nettleton College off the map. However, they falter- ed down the home stretch and were knocked off by the Pups and Nettleton ' s Indians in return engagements. After a slow start in which they led Tracy Junior College by only a 20-16 half-time margin, the Bunnies ran wild in the second half to pile up a 59-38 vic- tory in their first game of the season. From then on it was easy sledding for the State College freshmen until they ran into the University ' s Pups and Netts on their home floors. Unable to hit the hoop at all, the Bunnies found themselves outclassed 29-21 at Vermillion. Outstanding men on the Bunnie aggregation were John Billington, Thaddeus Boyle, Don Alguire, Don Clancy, Harry Voels, Dave Cooper, Don Holm, Dale Scott, Warren Evans, Tom Ward, and Charles Healy.

Tribute was paid to Co-captains Mack Jones and Roy Williams, seniors on the team. Other letter-winners present were Winford Laur, Jim Fergen, Bob Oddy, Wendell Andrews and Stuart Holdhusen, as well as their coach, Jim Baker. OUTSTANDING ATHLETES RECOGNIZED Two outstanding athletes at State College were honored in connection with the recognition program held on Jackrabbit Roundup Day. The awards given by The Industrial Collegian, honoring the best basketball and football men of the current season, went to Winford Buzz Laur for basketball and to Jerry Stablein for football. At the end of the track competition this year a similar award will be made to the outstanding man in this sport. « iS 246 The Nineteen Thirty-Nine Jack Rabbit Front Row: Ralph Reeve, Leonard Ekberg, Ray Kristensen, Elmo Moen, James Lee, Allen Schroeder.

THE 1938 TRACK RECORD The 1938 track season was ushered in by Coach James Baker with no reason to expect more than mediocre success. State tracksters, however, grabbed off several unexpected honors by bowling over the highly-touted Carleton College team, 78-52, and by- copping fourth place in the North Central Confer- ence track and field meet at Cedar Falls, Iowa. At the Drake Relays the Jackrabbits failed to tally. However, the next week, they took a third in the mile relay and a fourth in the javelin toss at the Aberdeen Relays. Playing hosts to Carleton on May 14, and spurred on by the splendid perform- ances of Bert Rude, the Bakermen took the meet easily. Rude won first in the javelin throw, shot put and discus, and third in the 120-yard high hurdles. State amassed 23 points (fourth place) at the North Central meet. Elmo Moen, sophomore Ag and captain of the track team, won second in the 440-yard dash. In a fast half-mile, Leonard Ekberg snared a second and Ronald Searles tied for first in the high jump. At the close of the season The Industrial Collegian awarded Bert Rude a certificate naming him as the most valuable man to the 1938 track squad. The ' Jurtior Chamber of Commerce in Brookings gave three medals. One was pre- -rsenjftd to Rude as best field man, one to Moen as best track man and one to as most improved man.

The first activity on this year ' s calendar was the golf tourney, in charge of Charles Stenson, senior agriculture student and captain of the 1937 football team. It attracted a good number of participants. Then the tennis tournament, directed by H. B. MacDougal, mathematics department head and tennis coach, was held, involving 20 competitors. The winter term produced two outstanding intra-mural activities — basketball and boxing. Basketball, which was in charge of Jim Emmerich, junior pre-forestry student and varsity football co-captain for next year, was perhaps the most popu- lar sport, with almost 250 men taking part. Jerry Stablein ' s boxing tournament was the most successful yet offered at State College. This spring intra-mural activities will include baseball and kittenball leagues. Although each sport was managed by a student, Bob Coffey is largely re- sponsible for success of the entire program. His nine months in the position of director of athletics have seen intra-mural sports assume a major place on the State College calendar of events. The following few pages give a brief summary of the minor-sports activities of the past school year. GOLF Athletic Director Bob Coffey, in inaugurating the fall sports program, an- nounced an All-College golf tournament, open to everyone. Under the direction of Charles Stenson, regulations required that a qualifying competitive score for 18 holes of play be made. Featured attraction of the tournament was a Hole-in- One tournament. Qualifying with scores of 66 and 83, respectively, Bob Oddy, junior printing student, and Jack Bennett, senior electrical engineer, went on through the tour- ney to win first and sec ond flight honors. In the first flight, Oddy defeated Cave 1 up, Stenson, 2-1, and defeated Buchanan in the finals, 1 up, to capture the oveted gold golf ball given to flight winners.

They are, left to right: Frank Tivis, Pat Cottrell, Ed Jacobson, Henry Sauter, Glenn Jensen, Alan McDougal and Archie Anderson. INTRA-MURAL BOXING Eight boxing champions were crowned at the finals of a three-night tournament, March 16. Only one champion, Featherweight Jean Tilley, was successful in the defense of his title, scoring a decision over Paul Aaron in the finals. Alan McDougal decisioned Jimmy Walker for the flyweight crown while Frank Tivis won the lightweight championship from Archie Anderson in a three-round decision. Glenn Jensen, junior welterweight, established himself as a terrific slugger when he knocked out Bert Banek in the second round of their fight to determine the title-holder in that classification. Previously, Jensen had unleashed a mighty wallop to win over Beeman Mullinix, last year ' s champ, in the first round of their semi-final match. Leon Anderson, football star, out-punched Paul Mueller for the heavyweight title in the main bout of the finals. Anderson had advanced to the finals by out- boxing Wayne Wild while Mueller had out-slugged Carlyle Kvam. In the light-heavyweight division, Henry Sauter scored a hard decision over Marcus Wulff, while Pat Cottrell, one of the classiest fighters in the tourn , out-pointed Bill Britton for the middleweight championsip. Ed Jacobson score a three-round decision over Frank Lingo in the senior-welterweight division 250 The Nineteen Thirty-Nine Jack Rabbit TENNIS, 1937-38 State netmen started their spring season with a victory over the Northern Normal clay-court squad, hampered by a severe dust storm and a strong wind. The squad composed of the mainstays, Alphus Christensen, Charles Yunker, Clyde Fehn and Don McMillan — defeated Huron College the same day on the opposition courts. The State men met defeat in the tennis tournament held in conjunction with the seventeenth annual North Central Conference track meet at Cedar Falls, la. Fehn won the only single match credited to State, by defeating Cross of the Teachers, 2-6, 7-5, 6-2. In the doubles matches Yunker and Christensen evened matters by dumping Eaton and Cross of the Teachers, 10-8, 6-3. In the state all-college tennis tournament held on the home courts, in which players from Sioux Falls, Northern, Huron and Yankton Colleges competed, State ' s racqueteers captured the doubles championship and amassed enough points to walk off with the grand trophy. State piled up 12 points to lead the semi-finalist Yankton crew by 2 points. State wound up the net season, after taking part in three tournaments, from which they emerged victorious in two. The season was a popular one with tennis fans, for it afforded two tourney clashes on the home courts and a superior brand of tennis. KITTENBALL, 1937-38 Kittenball, popular spring sport, last year was carried on in round-robin tournament style and the season was played in two separate halves. Competition was divisional, each division clashing with each other in both halves. Each ten had a manager who followed a schedule drawn up by Clifford Tibby Trapp, official umpire. After winning their opener, the Pharmics fell before Coach Leo Funk ' s printers in their second encounter. They rallied at the tail end of the first half and clipped off successive wins over the Ags, General Science and Engineers to clinch first berth honors with four wins against one defeat for a per centile score of .800. They were pressed hard for top honors by the General Science club who finished the season with three wins and two losses, for second place. In the second half the General Science club, led by ace twirler Dutch Thornton, garnered consecutive seasonal wins after a no-score pitcher ' s battle between Thornton, Science, and Barber, Printer twirler, to lead the league for top honors. The club walloped soundly every opponent, topping it all with a last game 13-0 win over the Printers. The second place berth was claimed by the Ags and the Printers, who clinched three games each during the last half of the round-robin competition.

INTRA-MURAL BASKETBALL After beating out an independent team, the Reds, in the semi-finals, a rangy Forester basketball team went on to score a 19-18 victory over another indepen- dent quintet, the Hoots, and cop the winter term intra-mural basketball cham- pionship. The various teams were divided into three groups — military, independent and divisional leagues. After the regular schedules were completed, top-ranking teams of each league met in the intra-mural basketball tournament — won by the Foresters, captained by Bill Moran, and pictured at the top of this page. At the close of the season, an all-intra-mural team was selected from the 250 men who participated. On this squad were Ray Kretchmer, Bernard Peterson, Pat Storry, forwards; Don Brown, Bill Moran, centers; Verne Baumberger, Bert Rude and Bruce Johnston, guards. Honorable mention went to Don Smith, Max Grove, Merle Wilson, forwards; Gordon Claussen, La Verne Kortan, ce ters; Rodger Ulrich, J ack Donovan and George Schanck, guards. Lloyd Ptak was in charge of the tournament. ft ft ft THE BAND, ORCHESTRA, AND CHORUS PROVIDE VALUABLE MUSICAL EXPERIENCE FOR THE STUDENTS OF STATE COLLEGE ft ft ft •S J ■«  « r c -5 8 CQ e .2 rt i — i £ _£ 21 • ' . o 1- s S gl rt Z 2 c « — 2 C M - J •- o s - Q £ SB 8 H e Collej lual con ten was 3- S 2 g v £ _c o er, the Stat -seventh anr ilmer Drags H CO a a, 5 4-1 C 4_ w U • 4) V a to j s s -S o ear. er w Stat besl u w ■a 3 S h pieces rts anr theU. probabl Dakota c 3 vo SL-S ja 2 ig a I s o S -S J 3 sted with itary client est in § g 8 S u u « c -S — a u rt - c S -Q «, rt — aj ' u M rt -J -tt « o - e ° - °° £ -c fcf § d X S Ch : WO bed 11 sa orth U ■!■ •-■ -r 6 Z 254 c I £ J | 6 sr-a ' S Sg .a (2  JC 2° q T3 c s Z S Q Z H O w H O 8?

Rabbit THE FORENSIC YEAR State College Men and Women Participate in Six Tournaments; Win Honors in Debate, Extemp Speaking and Oratory. $ B V?, This year ' s forensic program included four debate tournaments, one non- decision practice tournament and one extemporaneous speech and oratory con- test. Listed first on the forensic calendar was the Invitational tournament at Sioux Falls College, a practice tournament in which 14 State students partici- pated. The Red River Valley tournament on the campus of the Moorhead (Minnesota) State Teachers College February 2-4 was the second tilt. State ' s representatives were the unofficial winners of the tournament, taking first in women ' s debate (undefeated in six rounds), first in women ' s extempore speak- ing, second in women ' s oratory and fourth in men ' s extemp. States representatives were as follows : in women ' s debate, Margaret Mensch, Jeannette Unruh and Mavis Paterson; in women ' s extemp, Margaret Mensch; in women ' s oratory, Mavis Paterson; in men ' s discussion, William Wendt; men ' s extemp, Don Baddeley; men ' s debate, Edward Olson, Irwin Johnson, Glen Ritterbusch and Richard Cave. The annual forensics contest in extemp and oratory for South Dakota was held at Augustana College February 17-18. State was representated in men ' s intercollegiate oratory by Gordon Carlson; women ' s interstate, Mavis Paterson; national peace oratory, David Pearson; women ' s extempore speaking, Margaret Mensch; men ' s extemp, Irwin Johnson. The extemp speakers both ranked second in their respective events. The longest trip of the year was the one to the Invitational speech tourna- ment at the University of Iowa March 2-4. At that tourney State ' s men, Irwin Johnson and Edward Olson, placed among the upper 25 per cent of the affir- mative teams; Gordon Carlson placed second in after-dinner speaking; Mar- garet Mensch and Mavis Paterson participated in women ' s debate, and Miss Mensch was the only woman to place in the upper 25 per cent of the speakers. Miss Mensch also rated high in the women ' s discussion groups. Closing the forensic season with what the debaters considered to be the ma- jor tournament of the year, was the province convention of Pi Kappa Delta at Aberdeen March 30 to April 1. State was representated in extempore speaking for men by Don Baddeley; for women by Margaret Mensch; women ' s oratory by Valeria Doner; men ' s oratory by Glen Ritterbusch; in women ' s debate by rgaret Mensch and Mavis Paterson, and men ' s debate by Edward Olson ,Vltwin Johnson. The women ' s debate team won second place and a superior South Dakota State College 265 266 The Nineteen Thirty-Nine Jack Rabbit rating in the contest, while the men ' s team tied for second and won an excel- lent rating. State placed third in the sweepstakes events for the highest number of points accumulated in the tournament. Also included among the tournament work for the year were the Freeman Collegiate tournament and the Dakota Wesleyan Freshman-sophomore tourna- ment. All students who showed an interest in forensics and qualified to partici- pate had the opportunity to take part in one or more of the tournaments listed. Particularly active among State speakers were Margaret Mensch, a senior, who won the medal as State ' s outstanding debater for the second time this year; Gordon Carlson, a sophomore, who won the school oratory contest; Mavis Pat- erson, a junior, who won the women ' s oratory contest for the college; David Pearson, a senior, named as State ' s representative in international peace ora- tory; and Irwin Johnson, junior, who won the school extempore speaking con- test. Culmination of the year ' s speech activities came with the annual Pi Kappa Delta banquet which was held May 25. J. D. Coon, chairman of the state Re- publican party, prominent Sioux Falls attorney and member of the national council of Pi Kappa Delta, was main speaker for the evening. Prof. George McCarty presented awards to the students who had particularly distinguished themselves in speech events of the past year and spoke a word of appreciation for the cooperation that he had received from all of the students in speech activities. Mr. McCarty mentioned the Pi Kappa Delta award of special distinction given to Margaret Mensch and Mavis Paterson, State ' s women de- baters. These awards were presented at the special assembly held on Jackrabbit Roundup day, May 2. Mr. McCarty came in for his share of praise from the student speakers on the banquet program. He is a past national president of Pi Kappa Delta, and has been active in the work of the national committee of the fraternity for many years. Mr. McCarty is responsible in no small measure for the success of the State forensic students of this year. It has been his aim to keep the competition as democratic as possible and to give every student who is interested in speech ample opportunity to develop his talent. He has consistently declared that his purpose is not to be the winner always but to develop those high qualities of personality and speaking ability that make for the well-trained speaker. With the force of his personality and the development of his students, has come dis- tinction for the forensic group in intercollegiate competition. State speakers owe a large amount of their success to their coach. The banquet closed on the note of looking forward to the next year of for- ensic competition with the hope that State College might enjoy even greater triumphs. — South Dakota State College 267 WA ' BHff ,r ' s f : - m Li -V .•Jm 268 The Nineteen Thirty-Nine Jack Rabbit DRAMATICS FOR 1938-39 State College Sees Production of No More Peace, High Tor, and the Operetta, Trial by Jury. The dramatics department made its annual debut this year December 4 and 5, when it successfully staged Ernest Toller ' s satirical comedy, No More Peace. The play was directed by Earl James and produced with the aid of Jeanne Marie Thorson, assistant director; Joyce Munson, accompanist; Vincent Winters, sound technician; Murry Hinde, electrician; Walter Warne, in charge of stage construc- tion, and Ted Peterson and Vance Penney, stage crew. The Collegian had this to say about No More Peace : Unusual in its theme, colorful in its setting, No More Peace, fall presenta- tion of the college dramatics department, proved to be a diverting bit of satiristic entertainment. The play was well adapted to the world of today in its war policies. The bogus declaration of war sent to the imaginary little state of Dunkel- stein started the rapid-fire chain of events which enlivened the play to the end. Olympus, depicted as a separate off-stage scene was in itself novel, and the added attraction of soft-colored lights heightened its ethereal appearance. Orchids to Virgil Kroeger in his role of Napoleon. The pompous, battle-eager character in his famous sore-stomach pose was well portrayed by Mr. Kroeger. Attention to the roles of Cain, played by Donald Stevens, and Rachel, played by Betty Collins. The transformation of Stevins into a likeness of Adolf Hitler by a mere adjustment of mustache and hair was startling and one of the better ex- amples of the ludricous effects in the production. As a philosophizing old bum, David Barber, as Noah, needed no retouching in his shiftless, lazy and very humorous presentation. Mention must be made of Glen Ritterbusch as St. Francis in his doleful headshakings and bewailings, and Arthur Wolzmuth as Socrates who was bothered by the lifts and whose philoso- phy had little if any effect upon the hysteria of war. Vanity exaggerated por- trayed by the Angel, Marcella Rearick, who somehow reminded one of the present day beautiful but dumb, gum-chewing telephone operators. The singing by various male members of the cast brought to the fore the ridic- ulous effect of famous and important people making their declarations and pleas in a crooning, blinding-them-to-the-facts way. Straying from the path of the ordinary type of college dramatic productions, No More Peace broke all social and superficial diplomatic rules. The repartee was quick and sure. As a college production it might compare with the Broadway runnings of Hellzapopin and You Can ' t Take It With You. The play was OfiJi - - apod i its sarcasm, the characters portrayed nicely by members of the cast. ! South Dakota State College 269 v , , ' , 270 The Nineteen Thirty-Nine Jack Rabbit Other roles were capably interpreted by Oscar Markeseth, Erhardt Hehn, John Jeremiason, Lloyd Newell, Glen Buck, Wilbur Dyball, Leslie Zeller, Clar- ence Schladweiler, Glenn Rea and Mary Catherine Van Camp. One of the most ambitious undertakings to be tried by dramatics students on this campus was given in the form of High Tor, the winter quarter production presented February 23 and 24. Because of the unusual variety of character roles and incidents, this play is considered the best of Maxwell Anderson ' s work. Earl James was director of High Tor. Besides directing, he appeared as Van Van Dorn, owner of the High Tor mountains. From Van Dorn, a group of business- men tried to wrest the mountain, in order to put a railroad through that location. Van Dorn refused to sell, lost his sweetheart, played by Evelyn Stodghill. Then Van, sticking to his mountain retreat, met the ghosts of the wrecked ship, the On- Rust. The ghosts had been confined to High Tor until their ship returned for them. In Lise, portrayed by Beverly Moritz, Van found an understanding spir- it. Lise and Dewitt (played by Prof. Karl Theman) attempted to discover the reason for the difference between ghosts and living human beings. Lise ' s attempt ; This picture shows a scene from No More Peace. Characters here are. from left to li ht.

In addition to these major plays, the dramatics department sponsored several one-act plays, produced by members of play production class and given through- out the year to various clubs and organizations within the city. This year the de- partment collaborated with the college chorus to present Trial By Jury, an operetta by Gilbert and Sullivan, April 19 and 20. While not sponsored by the dramatics department, Yellow and Blue Rhap- sody certainly belongs in a discussion of dramatics at State College for the 1938-39 school year. This all-coed musical revue was staged in the college auditorium February 28 in substitution for Rabbit Rarities. Song and dance, tumbling and sleight- of-hand took over the stage in an up-to-the-minute professional tableau. Light- ing effects and costuming were developed around the colors of State College — yellow and blue. The performance opened with a cafe scene in which a girls ' quartet and a troupe of dancers provided a background against which Joan Swanson and Mar- land Colby put on an Astaire-Rogers act. The second portion of the evening ' s entertainment consisted of a tumbling routine which was directed by Norma Nelsen and Betty Dyste. Dr. Ward L. Miller of the botany department did his share in presenting a few of his ever-popular tricks of magic, after which Joan Swanson and Mar- land Colby returned to the spotlight to wind up the show with a solo dance apiece. Marjorie Paterson was master of ceremonies of the revue. Costuming was done by Margaret Zettle, Irene Voigt, Valeria Hoffert, Catherine Knox and Ruth Kumlien. Delpha Marvin was in charge of the stage committee. Yellow and Blue Rhapsody was under the direction of Miss Nell Ken- dall, head of the women ' s physical education department, who was assisted by Joan Swanson. The heightened interest in dramatics at South Dakota State College during the past several years probably can be traced back to Earl (Jerry) James, who has charge of that portion of the speech department ' s activities. A quiet, friendly young man who has an intense and sincere desire to help Jtage-minded students at State College, Mr. James has been found available to all those individuals and organizations who might have need of his help. Not content to sit back and watch plays under his direction develop, Mr. has taken roles in the majority of those plays. He has demonstrated that an able actor as well as an effective director. -fr -fr PUBLICATIONS— EDITOR JACK YELLS FOR MORE COLLEGIAN COPY; EDITOR BOB ASKS HOW ABOUT THOSE PHOTOS? l 276 The Nineteen Thirty-Nine Jack Rabbit Front Row: Lucille Maxwell, Jack Hayes, Mason Ely, Jack Hagerty, Imogene Adams, Irwin Johnson, Leo Funk.

The Industrial Collegian passed through a quiet publi- cation year during 1938-39, with no great changes or innova- tions in the student weekly. Only out-of-the-ordinary event was a change of editors in the middle of the publications year, when Charles Cleveland quit school at the end of the fall term, his second as editor of The Collegian. Jack Hagerty was chosen to succeed Cleve- land. He had served as managing editor under Cleveland for ' ' ■ , the former two quarters. Imogene Adams was managing editor the winter term. Ely built up an enviable record as business manager, selling more advertis- ing (and thus producing larger papers) than any other business manager in recent years. Increased advertising also made the use of more pictures possible. j South Dakota State College ■ 277 278 The Nineteen Thirty-Nine Jack Rabbit 9 i Fron ?o : Imogene Adams, Gaylord Barber, Marion Lucca, Bob Smith, Irwin Johnson, H.

The State campus took on a bucolic atmosphere during the week preceding the Ag Club ' s annual barn dance, high-spot on the informal social season. The Ag Club ' s discipline committee made sure of that! But, everything considered, the campus showed more pep during the week than at any other six day period during the year — with the exception, of course, of the week preceding Hobo Day. What with the open-air taxi, aided and abetted by one sturdy John Deere tractor, operating between the campus and Main Street daily; the rural costumes; frequent dunkings in the goldfish ' s private domain; bantering between Ags, Engineers and Printers, and the beautiful spring weather, enthusiasm ran high. But the week was only part of the huge pep program carried on by the Ag Club throughout the year. Hobo Week festivities brought out the Ag pep band ' s rural rhythm, and all through the year the Ag Club cooperated with plenty of pep in the regular activities. The semi-monthly meetings produced lots of fun — and, incidentally, enthusiasm for campus activities. Free coffee at the meetings, as shown in the accompanying picture below, helped to rally the Agriculture stu- dents to the cause.

MECHANICAL ENGINEERING SOCIETY J Clifford Welsh An intensive supplementary training in professional subjects makes up the program which the State College chapter of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers has adopted. The local chapter is one of 115 student branches which function throughout the United States, Canada and Puerto Rico. It fulfills its purpose of adding interest in the engi- neering profession through its discussion meetings, the show- ing of motion pictures of a technical nature and by the scheduling of speakers prominent in the mechanical engineering world. At many of the society ' s meetings, student members present talks. The South Dakota State College chapter of the American Society of Me- chanical Engineering was started in December of 1935. Since then the organi- zation has not only proved of benefit to the students of mechanical engineering, but has continued to participate in such campus activities as Hobo Day, the Engineers ' Ball, the Engineers ' Smoker and the Guidon Carnival.

The State chapter was established here in 1933. A major portion of its meetings are devoted to discussions of papers and technical reports. Outside speakers consist of men who have definitely established themselves in the civil engineering profession. The national organization also assists in the fulfillment of a worth- while program by making available to the local chapter various illustrated lectures concerning the construction of outstanding civil engineering projects throughout the world. The objects of the A. S. C. E. are to afford an opportunity for the members of civil engineering classes to become acquainted, to promote a spirit of con- geniality among members of the classes, to acquaint members with topics of interest to civil engineering students, and to encourage a professional spirit in students. tan treasurer, Clyde Fehn; .11 I ' I RS: President, Anton Kol ice president, William Crogha adviser, H.

ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING INSTITUTE Originated in 1933, the South Dakota State College student f+£ branch of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers has just completed its seventh year on the campus. To stimulate interest in engineering activities, to advance a knowledge of v the theory and practice of electrical engineering, to present a 1?

Eugene Jackson lowing graduation, and to offer them the opportunity to be- come acquainted with the personnel and activities of the national society — those constitute the primary purposes of the society. Annually, the A.I.E.E. cooperates with other school engineering groups in sponsoring the engineer ' s ball and smoker, and likewise takes an active part in making State College ' s annual Hobo Day a success. Students pursuing a regular course in electrical engineering are eligible for membership in this society. Meet- ings of the local chapter are held, at least once a month, in the engineering build- ing. Papers written by students, motion pictures, and addresses by prominent speakers, are presented at the meetings.

SCABBARD and BLADE S Believing that military service is an obligation of citizenship — so begin both the constitution of Scabbard Blade, hon- orary military fraternity, and the oath which opens each meet- ing of Co. I at State College. At the January 6, 1939, meet- ing, three raps of Captain Cameron Lane ' s gavel brought the company to the hand salute while members were repeating their oath of allegiance. Following reading of the minutes by Sgt. Ralph Mernaugh, Lieut. Robert McCormick, returned convention, submitted by-laws suggested at the conclave. The cadets ' spirit toward their work was typified when one member declared: Shucks, we don ' t miss meetings if it can be helped. After the acceptance of the by-laws, Major Rexford Shores interpreted rebel activities in Puerto Rico, a follow-up to former discussions of international pol- itics. The usual theme, plans for an improved future for the ROTC and college, dominated the session from opening to final oath: We ... do hereby pledge urselyes to perform our duties as officers of the cadet corps of South Dakota College to the best of our abilities . . .

(American Society of Agricultural Engineers) plays an active part in all campus activities of importance. Starting last summer to prepare for the current school year, two members — James Cranston and Allen Kettering — attended the Summer School of Industry sponsored by farm machinery companies. Since then the group has pro- duced a prize-winning float for the Hobo Day parade, a sophomore, Delbert Wylie, won the most-beautiful whisker contest, picnics and skaters to Lake Camp- bell were sponsored both fall and spring, a booth was put on exhibit for the Little International and a booth was also entered in the Guidon Penny Carnival. Regular meetings are held each second Monday evening. Material presented at the meetings has included papers on technical subjects, read by members, illus- s ; ; trated lectures by equipment company representatives, and similar topics 1 John Wolfe OFFICERS: President, John Wolfe; vice-presidem ponding secretary, H.

NURSES ' CLUB Offering students the cultural, scientific and social education m essential to a professional course in nursing; offering gradu- ate nurses study to broaden their general education and serve as a foundation for specialties in their field; and serving in an advisory capacity to the hospital schools of nursing in the state, the department offers a course that leads to a bachelor of science degree. Eight students were enrolled this year. This department of the pharmacy division, established in 1935, provides to graduates of a four-year course in an accredited high school a two-year nursing program which has gained recognition throughout the Northwest. Nurses registered in the department have formed a club to maintain and promote high educational and professional standards, to consider problems of in- terest to nurses, and to promote social interests among members. Special addresses by local speakers, social meetings and a study project of educational facilities offered by a number of schools of nursing formed the 1938- 39 program.

PI KAPPA DELTA South Dakota State is the home of the Delta chapter of Pi Kappa Delta, national honorary forensic society. As members of this organization, speech students from State compete in province and national tournaments with the top ranking speakers throughout the nation. At the 1938 national con- vention S. D. S. C. was represented by Mavis Paterson and Margaret Mensch. The local chapter, in addition to occa- sional banquet gatherings, assists the department of speech by encouraging speech-minded students to participate in one or more of its activities. The annual spring banquet for Pi Kappa Delta members is held in May after the completion of the forensic program. At that program, some additional impetus is given to the next national convention, where State ' s representatives will meet state and provincial high-ranking speakers.

PHARMACEUTICAL SOCIETY | Nine years ago the Pharmaceutical Society was organized at State College to include in its membership all students en- rolled in the division of pharmacy. Activities of the Pharmaceutical Society are practically ■j v synonymous with those of the division which sponsors it. It has become traditional for the Pharmics to be among the top-ranking competitors for honors in the most beautiful classification of floats each Hobo Day. This year the division upheld that reputation by winning first place with their attractive float depicting the famous Walt Disney characters, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Not only did they enter the prize-winning float, but constructed three others that appeared in the parade. For laboratory work in drug store management the pharmacy division main- tains a model drug store and display windows. Members of this society belong to the South Dakota Pharmaceutical Associ- ' ation, and attended its convention in Sioux Falls during the winter quarter.

Every third year the pharmacy division sponsors an industrial tour to some large city, important in the field of pharmacy. Last year the organization went to Indianapolis, Ind., where its members visited the plant of the Eli Lilly Company, drug manufacturers. Other activities of the society include participa- tion in intra-mural athletic events and a dinner- dance. Election of officers is held annually. For the 1938-39 school year, the club was headed by Evelyn Stene, president; Jack Bailey, vice-president; Mae Eleanor Nelson, secretary; and William Brewer, treasurer.

The basis of selection takes into account scholarship, personality, leadership, participation in extra- curricular activities, business ability and thrift as well as high scholastic ranking. Those men who have won a Sears scholarship band to- gether each year in the Sears Scholarship Club. Club activities are limited but the organization edits a paper and holds several social events, besides participating in the Little International. Ten of last year ' s winners were feted by Alpha Zeta at a recognition ceremony. Faculty advisers who select Sears scholarship winners include Dr. C. W. Pugsley, .chairman; Registrar D. B.

O r THE ART CLUB The fragrance of a steaming cup of tea, the symbol of friend- ship, brings together Art Club members every Friday after- noon. Organized by Miss Ada B. Caldwell 40 years ago, this club is the second oldest on the campus. As its purpose is to foster an appreciation of art, the Art Club sponsors two ex- hibits each year. This year a tapestry and pottery display was held during Farm and Home Week and last spring a collec- tion of 200 prints from the Beard Galleries was shown. The spring exhibit offers an opportunity for the club to entertain at guest night. Outside speakers and lectures by members add interest to the club ' s program. Miss Cora Mae Overton, Mrs. James P. Murphy, Mrs. Robert H. Vesey, Mrs. Joseph S. Ewing, Miss Catherine MacLaggen and others appeared this year. Active in all college affairs, the club won second place with its entry among Hobo Day floats, offers a cash prize annually for the best poster or other subject chosen by the club, takes charge of a booth for Guidon carnival and sponsors a free exhibit each month.

LUTHERAN STUDENTS ' ASSOCIATION With religion as its byword, the Lutheran Students ' Associa- ■s tion has established itself as a campus organization of note. ¥«!► ► Its membership is predominantly Lutheran, although persons from other denominations may be elected to membership. The . local organization is a chapter of the national society and is B J built with the purpose of fostering national tel low ship a mong students, the instillation of a conscious need of Christ in fac- ing modern problems, developing Christian friendships and the development of a healthy social life. In these objectives, the Association has proved itself of value to college students. Because of the large number of Luth- erans enrolled at State it affords an ideal location for a chapter of the club. Semi-monthly club meetings are held, consisting of supper and a program. Most of the meetings rely on members for programs, but occasionally an outside speak- er appears on the program. James Boyd served as president during the winter quarter.

AuDREvMcCOLLUM PHI UPSILON OMICRON Since Phi Upsilon Omicron, honorary society for home eco- nomics students, is mainly professional, the year ' s activities centered largely around phases of the domestic arts. Members of the sorority devoted themselves to advancing and promot- ing information on and interest in these arts, and in widening the horizons of their field. Displayed in Brookings were mannequin costumes made by members of the club. During regular business meetings many alumnae helped to extend Phi U in significance and importance by account- ing interesting experiences resulting from contacts made in their professions. Delving into more frivolous activities, the club entered a float in the Hobo Day parade, a booth at the Little International, and a booth in the Guidon car- nival. During the year, freshmen and transfer home economics students were feted at a tea in the home management house. Another highlight of the year was a sophomore Candid Camera party. It was in 1933 that Phi U took its place among State College activities. Dean Edith Pierson and Miss Laura McArthur are honorary members.

MONOGRAM CLUB Letterwinners from State ' s three major sports — football, bas- ketball and track — comprise the membership of the Mono- gram Club, which is in its second year of existence since its reorganization from the S. D. Club. The purposes of this organization are to advance and pro- mote the interest of State College athletics; to promote in- terest on the part of the student body in all athletic activi- ties; to sponsor events having advertising value for State Col- lege, and to promote closer relationships among athletes of State College. It has become an annual custom for the organization to sponsor jointly with the Cottontail Club the first dance of the winter quarter. This year, with Johnny [ i V Buck and his Varsity Club orchestra providing the musical background, the dance was one of the most successful staged on the campus. Another tradition of the club is to work in conjunction with the athletic de- n ) v , . payment in all athletic events sponsored at State College. f({ y OFFICERS: President, Arthur Vandall; vice-president, Stuart Holdhusen.

INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS CLUB With the world for its research laboratories and the world ' s affairs as its highly unpredictable unknowns, the Interna- tional Relations Club had to cover a lot of territory in its monthly meetings during the year. The action of a given por- tion of speeches with discussions used as a catalyst was the formula of all its sessions. Each monthly meeting was planned to coincide in subject matter with problems currently prominent in world news. Sponsored by the Carnegie Endowment, the local chapter of International Relations Club was under the faculty supervision of Dean Vivian V. Volstorff. , Open primarily to General Science students, the club welcomed all interested in j -, world affairs. Books supplied to the local chapter by the Carnegie Endowment j were turned over to the library, where they were added to the special Internationa Relations Club collection.

Besides the discussions of other nations, the club presents plays in French and Spanish, translate proverbs into foreign tongues and occasionally asks an outside speaker to appear before them. Their meetings are carried on in the foreign language as much as possible, in order that they will aid in the acquiring of a working understanding of the language. French and Spanish Club members also prepare a Hobo Day float each year, and an annual picnic is held at Lake Campbell.

WOMEN ' S ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION Throwing back their shoulders and walking carefully with eyes straight ahead, members of the Women ' s Athletic Asso- ciation balanced books upon their heads during Posture Wee!:. Each girl placed one on her head and essayed a serious at- tempt to walk up and down steps, while the book wavered. The W. A. A. not only assists in promoting good posture by vivid examples of book-balancing, but also sponsors other novel entertainment features. This year their annual dance assumed a seasonal motif of winter sports, complete with a warming house and a skating-rink dance floor. Yellow and Blue Rhapsody, a co-ed review of dancing, tumbling and drama, was presented during the winter quarter as an all-college feature. Rifle marksmanship was introduced for the women this year by the Women ' s Athletic Association. A group of 15 girls was selected for active work in the sport as it rapidly gained headway. Revision of its constitution was one of the outstand- ing changes made in the organization during the year.

HOME ECONOMICS CLUB ?_ Potential home-makers who were enrolled in the Home Eco- M nomics division supplemented their scholastic activities with M • I actual practice in home-management through their member- ship in the Home Ec Club. As a medium for acquiring prac- a, tical experience and a cultural veneer in the art of home plan- ning, the local chapter of the National Home Economics Association served 181 girls. A joint business and social meeting was held each month. Almost every girl served on the arrangement committes, gaining experience in planning, preparing, and serving dinners as well as in presenting interesting edu- cational programs. As a supplement to their domestic activities, the young women entered other activities also, preparing a high-ranking float for the Hobo Day parade. Irene Voigt, a senior coed, was chosen to reign as queen of the Ag dinner-dance and Little I International Livestock Show.

COTTONTAIL CLUB BlATRIX WlLSO The Cottontail Club states its purpose thus : To support all school activities. This year it continued its usual program of events to live up to that aim. Cottontail members attended all athletic events in a body, bought new blue-and-gold jackets and elect- ed three cheer leaders: Virginia Parr, Mary Jane Palm and Beatrix Wilson. When Eleanor Nielsen left school, Miss Wilson was chosen to take her place as president. Hobo Week, besides the activities that every organization carries out, the Cottontails staged the largest torchlight parade held in several years. It termin- ated with a pep meeting on Main Street and a theater raid. In early January, at the beginning of the winter quarter, the club combined forces with the Monogram Club to sponsor a sweater dance, an informal affair. In 1936 a group of coeds searching for some way of increasing school spirit, hit upon the idea of the Cottontail Club and their plan resulted into what is nc the joy of State ' s cheer leaders: a half-a-hundred girls who will yell.

PRINTONIAN CLUB .— | Some treat it seriously, some treat it gaily, but all the printers M agree that it is the best event during the year — the annual spring industrial tour taken by members of the Printonian Club. The Printonian Club, composed of all students taking work in the printing and journalism department, annually leaves Brookings behind to inspect various printing and pub- lishing houses in some large city. The tour is financed by pro- ceeds from the student directory, one of the projects of the club. This year 2,500 copies of the directory were distributed. A multi-colored tent ceiling of crepe paper, walls of streamers, and four large baskets of balloons released at the appropriate moment to produce a cloudburst effect of color, were the highlights of the club ' s carnival dance, an annual affair.

The non-secret chapter strives for high scholastic attain- ment. The promotion of pharmaceutical research and profes- sional science is encouraged. Membership is restricted to upperclass Pharmics of high „ „ it ii a L L Kenneth DuBois scholastic record and good character. Acceptance by the pres- ent members is necessary for admission to the society and during the first year of membership, the initiate is required to write a thesis on a chosen subject related to pharmacy and present it to the group. Rho Chi maintains a student loan fund to aid those pharmacy students who are in need of money to continue their college work. The club also entered a float in the Hobo Day parade. Three new members were admitted to the society this year — Evelyn Stene, Arthur Schwarting and Ronald Helder. Seven active student members and six active alumni members comprise this chapter.

SIGMA LAMBDA SIGMA Sigma Lambda Sigma, honorary service sorority for senior women, is probably known best for its joint sponsorship with Blue Key of what was All-College Day and now has been transformed into the Jackrabbit Roundup. Sigma Lambda ' s prime purpose, however, is the promotion of leadership and scholarship among women of State College. It awards a schol- arship to the highest ranking freshman each spring, and car- ries out an important function in its orientation program, through which members help freshmen women become acquainted with State College. One of the most effective agencies by which this program is accom- plished, is the series of informal teas given during the fall quarter. Sigma Lambda Sigma is a small organization — small because requirements for membership are so high. It has been choosing and pledging the outstanding - . C w omen on this campus since 1931.

HORTICULTURE-FORESTRY CLUB The Horticulture-Forestry Club lists as major activities of the 1938-39 school year a second-place Hobo Day float, ex- hibits at the Little International, and a first-flight intra-mural basketball team. Say It With Flowers was the theme of the float which won second in the most beautiful division of the Hobo Day parade. At the Little International, members set up exhibits Whitehead of dendrology, floriculture and allied subjects. The display was to show the work of students in the department, and to show that horticulture includes not only flower growing, but tree grafting, home plantings, vegetable crops and tree care and prizes for dendrology and competitive plant exhibits were given. The object of the Horticulture-Forestry Club is to promote a spirit of com- radeship between State College ' s foresters and students majoring i OFFICERS: President, Eugene Whitehead horticulture vice-president, Burnley Wilson; secretary-treasure Olson. 312 The Nineteen Thirty-Nine Jack Rabbit Front Row: Marjorie Walder, Dorothy Cadle, Anita Quast, Margery Brown, Lorraine Friess.

M MUSIC KHMTNM, V PI GAMMA MU If one wanted a man or woman of superior intelligence during the scholastic year, one paged the Pi Gamma Mus, for the Pi Gamma Mus had a corner on the best brain material on the local college market. The State College chapter of this na- tional honorary society, which was organized to stimulate higher scholarship in the social sciences, had the highest schol- astic standing of any organization on the campus. Eligible to membership were juniors, seniors, alumni and faculty members, who had a minimum of 30 hours of social science credits, an average of 2.8 for those hours, and a good scholastic standing in all other studies. At meetings of the club, emphasis was placed on material related to the social sciences. Particularly popular were student papers, discussions and speakers. A wide range of subjects for discussion enabled members to become familiar with all aspects of problems arising for consideration by social science students. South Dakota Gamma, the organization of Pi Gamma Mu that exists in Brookings, was granted a charter of the national fraternity in 1927. L Mkrrill Jarchow ill Jarchow membe vice-president.

The South Dakota State chapter was installed three years ago. Last year it was ninth nationally in the chapter efficiency contest, an honor of no small propor- tions for a one-year-old chapter in the largest professional journalistic fraternity in the nation. This year at the national convention at Madison, Wisconsin, the baby seemed to have reached full stature. Of 40 collegiate chapters, State had the BoB Smith largest delegation. That earned them honor. But the thing was topped off when the South Dakotans were awarded a portion of a four-way tie for second in the national chapter efficiency contest. Some of the activities which helped give State the tie for second ranking in chapter efficiency were the local chapter ' s radio news program, its Hobo Day souvenir program, its high school journalism contest, its sponsorship of the All- State high school news staff which covers the S.D.E.A. convention, and its annual dance.

Although the most spectacular event on the calendar of this auxiliary to Scabbard Blade, the annual Penny Carni- val is by no means the only activity of Guidon. Members hold a regular bi-monthly meeting and occasionally Guidon and its brother organization join for a session. Guidon strives to fulfill national objectives, which call for acquaintance with governmental affairs, particularly as regards national defense; the dissemination of a rational under- standing of governmental matters and, locally, the stimulation of interest in the women ' s rifle team and other military functions on the campus. Guidon is composed of junior and senior university women, organized on nearly every campus of the United States. Throughout the country the organiza- ion is known for its strict initiation period. The State College chapter of Guidon came into being in 1930. An organiza- tion has been in existence at the University of South Dakota since 1926.

NEWMAN CLUB Schladweiler The newest organization to appear on the State College cam- pus is the Newman Club, local branch of an organization that functions in non-Catholic colleges and universities of the United States, Canada, Puerto Rico and Hawaii. This is its first year of activity in Brookings. The Newman Club chapter at St. Thomas Church in Brookings has a membership of some 50 students, coming from all parts of South Dakota and Minnesota. Bi-weekly meetings are held throughout the school year, with prominent speakers providing the educational atmosphere of the sessions. Father F. X. Dooley, priest of the St. Thomas Church, is chaplain of the local organization, while Major James P. Murphy, Edward Schroepfer and Miss Nellie A. Hartwig make up the college faculty committee. The purposes of the club are identical with its activities. It intends to pro vide Catholic students at State College with religious, educational and socia affairs — in that order of importance.

The club was runner-up in the collegiate Intra-mural basketball tournament. The Hootarian Club proper was originally composed of six official members, all rooming at the same home on Ninth Street: Chuck Chamberlin, president; Buck Barber, vice-president; Prof Jornlin, chief owl; Duke Meinicke, stabilizer, Kid Jornlin, overseer and Mick Mickelson, mascot. However, following Chamberlin ' s appointment to Randolph Field, Texas, as a flying cadet, Barber took over the duties of president. Marvin Ellis was pledged to official membership on Chamberlin ' s departure. The original purpose of the Hootarian Club (from the Latin, Pry Upa Kap- pa) was to enter a float in the Hobo Day parade. An ancient, steam whistling truck, decorated with Hooting, (as it applies on the campus) as the theme, and evidencing Four Ways of Going Through College, was used for the float. Despite its post-school day activities and nightly excursions, whence the signs, the club placed four of the official members on the honor roll.

A little hard work gave them deserved recognition and a number of skaters and picnics united them into what State College knows as the 4-H Club, an active, well-balanced organization. Through the leadership of Raphael Brandriet, the club climbed to new enrollment heights, numbering better than 200 eligible members, most of whom turned out for skaters, 1 1 1 Brandriet parties and picnics. Not soon to be forgotten are the hot dogs and coffee which brought the club a welcome fifty dollars during Farm and Home Week. Members of the club cooperated to build the booth and take turns selling merchandise. Neither to be casually tossed aside were the compliments on the club booth at the Little International. Again members of the club worked hard to establish the beauty and originality of design, despite the fact that many of them were taking part in the exposition. The club aims at training for leadership for future 4-H work. Its members are former and present 4-H club workers and junior leaders. Each plans to foster club work in his community during the va- cation months each summer.

DELTA PI CHI Each year Delta Pi Chi, honorary engineering fraternity, r awards to the sophomore engineer highest in scholarship an lyi engineers ' handbook. This year the honor went to BobBarthle. The local fraternity chapter usually holds dinner meet- F ings. Members do not confine their activities and discussions fl to the technical problems of their profession, but are inter- ested also in promoting sociability among engineers. The or- Paimer Dragsten ganization was f ounf j e d to encourage leadership, develop character and to promote a more perfect understanding of the profession. Mem- bers are chosen on the basis of scholarship, sociability, and practicability. All members come from the junior or senior class. Delta Pi Chi was organized at State College in 1927. Charter members in- clude Dean H. M. Crothers and Prof. William H. Gamble. Honorary members are Prof. H. B. Blodgett and Prof. Russell E. Gibbs. This year Delta Pi Chi pledged five students: Franklin Ordung, Clyde Fehn, Keith Webster, Charles Wilson and Paul Klosterman.

The fraternity was set up on the South Dakota State College campus in February of 1924. Its predecessor was the Hopkins Club, which came into being here in 1921. Alpha Zeta endeavors to encourage scholarships among undergraduates, to raise the standards of agriculture, to promote interest in worth-while agricultural organizations, and to act as a connecting link between graduates and their college. At State membership is limited to those of the junior and senior class who rank highest in scholarship, character, leadership and extra-curricular activities. Alpha Zeta presents a medal to the freshman ranking highest scholastically, gives a banner to the high school scoring best in the Smith-Hughes contest here and offers prizes at the Little International.

BLUE KEY Even though you will probably think first of the men ' s smoker when Blue Key is mentioned, you must remember that that • T is only one of the many activities that this senior service fra- r _jr ± ternity sponsors. fr fl The other most spectacular affair with which Blue Key was prominently linked this year was Jackrabbit Roundup day May 2. For several years Blue Key and Sigma Lambda have Cuff Welsh combined forces to put on All-College Day, and when that was transformed into the Jackrabbit Roundup, these two organizations remained as chief sponsors. Blue Key members are chosen on the basis of scholarship, personality, charac- ter and participation in extra-curricular activities. Each year regular members go into the assembly audience and tap pledges with a large Blue Key, thus notifying them of their election to the fraternity. This year Leonard Engler was awarded a $20 scholarship as the outstanding sophomore athlete. The organization also selected Thomas Schultz and George Shanck as student football and basketball managers. Blue Key assisted in caring for high school players who played in basketball tournaments here and sponsored a dance in October.

WOMEN ' S SELF-GOVERNMENT ASSOCIATION Women ' s Self- Government Association, the largest girls ' organization on the campus, endeavors to bring about a comradely relationship between the dormi- tory and town girls at State College. Membership is open to all regularly-en- rolled women students. Shortly after the opening of school in the fall, women on the campus enter- tained faculty members and their wives at a formal tea in Wecota Hall. This provided the coeds with an opportunity of expanding acquaintanceship with members of the faculty. Throughout the year, W. S. G. A. sponsored a series of open houses, at which time students of one division — either agriculture, pharmacy, general sci- ence or engineering — were guests for an informal evening spent in dancing or playing cards. Light refreshments were served. The premiere event on the W. S. G. A. social calendar was the coed formaL , held April 22.

We think you will enjoy The Jack Rabbit more in later years if you will follow this suggestion. So, if this book isn ' t cluttered up already with greetings from friends and acquaintances, encourage them to do their writing back in this section. We herewith come to the end of The 1939 Jack Rabbit, done into book form by the presses of the Printing Laboratory of South Dakota State College, Brookings, South Dakota; the bindery of Brown Saenger, Inc., Sioux Falls, South Dakota, and the cover-making plant of Kingsport Press, Inc., Kingsport, Tennessee. Illustrations are by Harvey Dunn of Tenafly, New Jersey, and S. O. Gjo- vaag of Sioux Falls. Photography is the work of Earl Bales of the State College Visual Education Department and Student Photographer Warren Syverud. Cloister Oldstyle has been used in The Jack Rabbit as both text and dis- play face. Paper is Warren ' s Lustro Brilliant-Dull, furnished by the John Leslie Paper Company, Minneapolis, and engravings are by the S-D Engraving Com- pany of Sioux Falls. We wish especially to extend our appreciation to H. S. Hepner, faculty ad- viser, and Windsor A. Straw, typographer, as well as all other members of the staff of the Department of Printing and Rural Journalism at South Dakota State College for their help.
