 1 lie CHINOOK 1948 Published by The Junior Class and The Journalism Club Montana State Normal College Dillon, Montana Volume FortyForeword CZ'OME BACK with us, dear Reader, over the canal bridge, up the campus steps, around the Residence Halls, past the Gymnasium, to the Administration Building, and through these pages of your 1948 Chinook. Remember the inspiration of your classes, the thrill of the football games, the gayety of the dances. Listen! You can hear the poignant music of the concerts, the gay laugh of the girl down the hall, the drone of the library, the sharp ring of the class bells, the cheers for the "Bulldogs.'' Can you see the candle-lighted initiations, the pile of Montanomals on Wednesday mornings, the happy students ready for the "Go" and the intense young graduate accepting his diploma? The next year is here waiting to go forward, but there is time for you to look once more at this past year and recall fond memories with your Chinook.Dedication To OUR new President, Rush Jordan, and to our old friend, Professor Jordan, we dedicate the 1948 Chinook. We offer it as a token of our appreciation of his friendship and guidance. We wish him success in his directing our beloved M. S. N. C. toward greater education and higher and higher teaching goals. 3 )President Rush Iordan President’s Mess a e TIME SPENT in college is not only preparation for life; it is life. Live it well, for it will not last forever. Four years is but a little time. College is a place to live and learn and to be happy. Hard work can be pleasant, and learning should not be painful. College days are good days. Fill each one full. Neglect none of your opportunities lest you regret it later. When in after years you look at your 1948 Chinook be prepared to say, "That v as a good year. A year I will remember." The president and the faculty wish all students success, but each student makes his own record. You are rewarded as you deserve — at college as elsewhere. RUSH IORDAN. ( 4 )Dr. Sholdon E. Davis. Prosident Emoritus LjAST EVENING was chill, and dark and dreary, and fear was in the darkness. As we breathe Montana air in the brightness of today, we gain courage to meet uncertainties, confident that the best days are yet to come. "The people that walked in darkness have seen a great light.” The world, with all its confusion, is playing for ever higher stakes in education, health, comfort, and decency for all men, and its tomorrow can be a golden age. Alert yourselves, students of 1948, and look steadfastly in that direction. SHELDON E. DAVIS, President Emeritus 3 )Chancellor Goorgo A. Seiko o UR CHANCELLOR was drafted to go to Korea to establish education there. During his absence the Chinook was sent to the publishers, and so he was able to send us only his greetings. Dr. George A. Selke is at the head of Montana's higher education system.

The purpose of the council is to provide for the regulation and improvement of all matters of general student concern. This year the council members compiled a constitution for "The Associated Student Body of the Montana State Normal College."

Student Activity Committee The Student Activity Committee deserves much praise for its fine work of this year. Selecting outside entertainment, helping each group in the college to sponsor one activity, planning "Go” and "M" days, and arranging for Community Concerts to be held in Dillon next year have all been part of the work. The members of the group consist of four faculty members: Miss Savidge, Miss Mathews, Mr. McFadden and Mr. Bauer; and four students: Arlene Albro, Ralph Bamaby, Maxine Beck and James Brockbank. The Chinook extends congratulations to this deserving group for their success in making this an enjoyable college year.

The Cheer Leaders PileVodvil Varieties of 1948 Vodvil Varieties was presented on the M. S. N. C. campus on April 2, 1948 under the direction of Miss Sliepcevich, faculty director, and Bill Spahr, student manager. Vodvil is a red-letter day on the campus. Each class and organization presents its own skit. The results often border on the absurd, to the delight of the audience. This year the International Relations Club won first place with the skit, "Three for Jack or The Life of a Sailor." While Dale Dart sang the sailor's ditty, "Three for Jack," Stan Smith and three co-eds put on a pantomime showing the problems of a sailor. Three skits tied for second place honors: The Sophomores with "The Gay Nineties," the upper classmen with "Chinook Breezes From the Past," and the Art Club with "Flashy Photos." "The New Lxx k," presented by the Residence Hall girls received honorable mention. Between skits the audience enjoyed many comedy and musical numbers, as well as the comments of the Master of Ceremonies, Bill Spahr. President Jordan declared the afternoon of Vodvil Day a holiday for making gay. In response, the students donned colorful costumes of all periods, designs, sizes, colors and meaning. They then went parading through the streets of the town and around the campus, led by yell leaders who threw out brightly colored handbills urging everyone to come to the Vodvil. Prizes were given to Joan Yearian, for wearing the prettiest costume; to Bill Jolly and Jack Lohr for funniest costumes; to Lillian Fehrenkamp, Rosalie Lunde and Phyllis Wickham for the most original group costume, and to Donna Johnson, Patricia Thompson, Mercedes Stiegler and Ramona Simon for the funniest group costumes. (ci)Memory Snapshots From M. S. N. C. As the snapshots are fitted together on these pages, so we fit together the moments of college life that memory has photographed. Some of the moment-pictures are boldly gay and clear; others are small and under-exposed; yet we keep them as we like the vague feeling of their past joys. These small pictures can tell the story of college life in a fascinating, haphazard way. The beginning of the year is blurred and confused. We were not quite sure we belonged where we were or in the next room. Perhaps we will put this picture on the bottom that shows the time we got into the Spanish class instead of American History and had to get up and wend the long way to the door through the amused stares of the Spanish students. But bright and clear as the day are the pictures of the "Go” and the champion football team. And we can see the crowning of the Holly Queen and the mystic interpretations of poetry and music by Eleanor King. We can hear as well as see the men on the campus singing the beautiful carols of Christmas on the eve of vacation. As we take our memory pictures over and over again we will be surprised to see that some that were once dim have grown clear and bright and the bright ones have begun to fade. The small, clear one of the Vodvil has faded into a pleasant sensation and the once under-exposed one of Plato's philosophy has grown brighter with each year. The memory snapshots of our year of college will be slowly slipping into the right places to make our lives the richer for having them. Surely we will treasure these memories of M. S. N. C. ( 62 ) .A view of the library building just after a visit from King Winter. L M. S. N. C. students have books and materials to help them in their preparation for all courses. The installation of new lights in the library this year was a help to student research. Miss Madeen, librarian, helps Dallas Owens find material for his term paper.

The Rough Riders jk Volleyball The Thinker psprBroad Jump Basketball OH: Free Throw Bulldogs vs. Bulldogs vs. Eastern Cheer Loaders Squad in Action1947 Football The winning of their first Montana College Conference title and the playing of their first international game in the school's history, highlighted Montana Normal's 1947 grid season. Coach Bill Straugh, who attended a summer coaching school under the tutelage of Ray Elliot, T-minded mentor of the University of Illinois, installed this difficult system at the Normal for the first time. This type of attack was especially suited to the material at hand, with light fast backs operating behind a big, hard charging forward wall. Playing their first game outside the conference, and with only two weeks to acquaint themselves with the intricacies of the "T’ the Bulldogs nevertheless gave a good account of themselves before bowing 6-0 to the Ricks Vikings in Idaho. Opening their conference season a week later, the orange and black grid-ders fought the Eastern Normal Yellowjackets to a 0-0 deadlock. This tilt saw the Bulldogs threaten repeatedly and completely outplay their opponents, only to falter near pay dirt. Then came the eagerly awaited jaunt into Canada where the Bulldogs hung a 16-6 defeat on a favored University of Alberta team, that only a week before had routed Montana School of Mines, 26-0. The Golden Bears, boasting of a college enrollment of more than 7,000 students, were unable to cope with the hidden ball tactics of the Normalites. This trip, as evidenced by post game player reports, was the highlight of the season. Continuing their winning ways, the Bulldogs returned home and trimmed the Orediggers from the School of Mines, 19-2; just as the experts predicted they would. (67)1947 Football (Continued) Carroll College, whose season record compared favorably with the Bulldogs, was the next opponent and on this game hinged the conference championship. Showing definite superiority throughout, the Bulldogs emerged from this one on the long end of a 14-0 count, copping their first conference grid championship in the school's history. In a return encounter with Ricks to close the season, these two evenly matched foes battled to a 6-6 tie. Signs point to another strong team next season with almost all of the 1947 squad returning. During the entire season Coach Straugh was given able help from Royal Morrison, assistant coach. Autographs of Gridiron Favorites ( 68 )Front row (loft to riqht): Lindy Estes.

Walt's specialty is his dribbling, which is often his opponents' headaches. Lindy Estes, Ennis, renewed his fine ball playing for the Bulldogs where his rebounding and superb ball handling earned him his letter. Ben Harrison, Deer Lodge, a small but fast forward, showed an aggressive ball hawking style that kept the opponents off balance. Bob Howard, Browning, gave a good account of himself at forward, winning a forward berth on all-conference selections and leading the Bulldogs in scoring with twelve points per game. Marlin Johnson, Saco, worked his way up to the first five by displaying some keen shooting and classy rebounding. Stan Johnson, Hot Springs, resumed his scoring ways at center where his great height and rebounding ability made him a man to contend with. Dale Tash, Dillon, was always a threat with his high looping set shots from out front. He was a very tricky ball handler who could score with a variety of shots close in. A1 Weeks. Hamilton, a "lefty", used his height to great advantage under the basket and coupled with his fine scoring abilities made him a hard man to stop. A1 Combs, Glasgow, made up in playing ability what he lacked in height, moved up to the varsity late in the season and showed great promise. Coach William Straugh fielded the first championship football team in the history of M. S. N. C. last fall. Perhaps the coaching school he and Royal attended at Alamosa, Colorado, helped to insure such a successful season. This year the Bulldogs finished in second place in the conference basketball race and Coach Straugh still maintains a high record of conference wins. Royal Morrison, a newcomer to college athletics, scored an impressive debut as he coached the hard charging Bulldog line that steam-rolled opposition in every game. He handled the track team last spring and is in charge again this year. His Junior Varsity basketball team showed polish that can be attributed to excellent coaching. (73)Basketball In 1948 Basketball got under way at M. S. N. C. the last week in November immediately following the cessation of gridiron activities. Four lettermen answered Coach Bill Straugh's initial call for cage candidates, the remainder of the turnout being composed mostly of Freshmen. Coach Straugh scheduled a number of non-conference foes during the month of December, in order to acquaint his new charges with college ball before the conference season opened in January. University of Montana, Ricks and Idaho State defeated the Bulldogs, but the orange and black gave a good account of themselves against teams of their own caliber, defeating Montana Mines and College of Education by impressive scores. Opening their conference season on January 7, the Bulldogs copped a 57-36 win over their old rivals, the Mines. Then came a three-game jaunt in which they lost to Northern Montana at Havre, 56-52, and dropped another close 47-43 decision to Carroll the following night. In an encounter the following night the Bulldogs found their shooting eyes to trip the Saints 48-39. Returning to their home floor, the Bulldogs drubbed a hapless Eastern Normal five on successive nights by scores of 91-46 and 79-50. Northern Montana was the next foe to test the Bulldogs on the home floor, the Northern Lights taking a hard fought 47-44 opener, only to drop the second test to an improved Bulldog aggregation by a 62-48 count. The highly publicized and capable Bears from Rocky Mountain College provided the next opposition for the Bulldogs and were lucky to return home with a 52-51 victory, that saw the underdog Bulldogs battle the Bears right down to the wire. It was the closest any team came to defeating the Bears, who copped 31 of 32 games during the season, losing only to Montana State, a team definitely out of their class. A three-game junket to Billings later on saw the orange and black defeated by Eastern 56-49, and then trimmed twice by Rocky Mountain 65-46 and 61-51. Closing strong, the Bulldogs defeated Montana Mines twice by scores of 44-42 and 61-51, and nosed out Carroll 52-42 to deadlock the Saints for second place in the final standings. Thus the Bulldogs have, since winning the title in 1941, placed third and tied for second place honors twice in their four full years of conference competition. (74 )1948 Season Record M. S. N.

(Bill Roberts not pictured.)1947-48 Bowlin Bowling was added to the list of activities of M. S. N. C. for the first time in 1946, and since then has grown to be one of the favorite sports with well over twenty percent of the students participating in two weekly leagues. THE MEN'S LEAGUE: Raymond Bracy, secretary and manager, is responsible for the organization of the men's league this year. The league meets every Tuesday at the Dillon Bowling Center to roll three games, and a fourth game is tabulated from the total pins of the first three games. Eugene (Shaker) Thomson holds the college bowling records—the high individual game of 245 and the high individual series of 650. Shaker is a consistently high bowler and has attained and held the highest average. There are four teams: The Humphries—Thomson, lack Malia, Maes, Hub-ber, Malee and Aspholm; the Builpups—Bracy, Lohr, Stucky, Koski, McCabe and Searle; the Corral Alley Pups—Lindgren, Vetter, O'Neill, Fey and Leslie; and the Grenadiers—Leimback, Hinkley, Kleinhans, C. Murray and Bill Roberts. The first half ended with a tie between the Humphries and Bullpups (27 wins, 18 losses); the Corral Alley Pups, third (20 wins, 25 losses), and the Grenadiers, fourth (16 wins, 29 losses). The men's singles tournament, held in January, found Raymond Bracy, Bill Roberts and Jack Lohr placing first, second and third respectively. THE WOMEN'S LEAGUE: The Women's Athletic Association is responsible for the organization of this league, and the appointment of Jeanne McLeod as manager for the first quarter and Eva Benton as manager for the second quarter was made by the association president. Two games are bowled each Wednesday at the Dillon Bowling Center. In the first half, Shirlee Morris held the highest average and the Pin Busters— Cline. Gilmer, S. Morris, Coughlin and M. Morris—held first place with 12 wins and 6 losses. Other teams participating were the Flying Saucers—Ryan, Rout-ledge. Stamm, Higgs and Long, with 11 wins and 7 losses; the Fantastic Five— Benton, Tanner, Williams, Fraser and Yearian, with 6 wins and 12 losses; and the Cabooses—Wickham, Thompson, Zinda, Johnson and Richardson, with 5 wins and 13 losses. THE MIXED LEAGUE: In March the Women's League was changed to a mixed league because of a conflict in W. A. A. schedules. The teams in this league are made up of several members of the men's league and the women's league. The mixed doubles tournament, held in January, placed Jack Murray and Shirlee Morris in first place; Cliff Leimback and Mary Long in second place, and Jack Malia and Nina Fraser in third place. ( 79 )The W. A. A. Sports Board consists of the managers of the teams and of individual sports, the song leader and the reporter. The members are Virginia Muretta, volleyball manager; Arlene Albro, basketball manager; Louella Spring, softball manager; Eva Benton and Jeanne McLeod, bowling managers; Jane McKenzie, minor sports manager; Ilia Mae Sims, outing manager; Marilynn Routledge, swimming manager; Maxine Beck, point supervisor; Helen Davis, reporter; Lois Crawford, song leader, and Miss Sliepcevich, sponsor. Women's athletic classes at M. S. N. C. are under the direction of Miss Elena Sliepcevich. In addition to the "play hour" held every Monday night for all college women, there are classes in folk dancing, plays and games, softball, archery, individual sports and tennis. Women's teams were organized in volleyball, basketball and bov ling. Each year a group of women from our campus attend the college play day activities. Dressed in black, white and orange, the cheer leaders, Arlene Albro, Virginia Muretta, Annanett Risley and Jane McKenzie, led by their yell duke, Bill Jolly, cheered the Bulldogs on to victory. They attended all games and inspired enthusiasm and interest in the cheering section with their old and new yells.
