Zirbes, Baechler q FTER A YEAR of diligent work, the 1937 Min- neiska staff again presents the yearly panor- ama of school events. In presenting the annual publication, the edi- torial staff was aided and advised by Mr. Harlan J. Randall, sponsor, other members of the faculty, and by the students. Due to the willingness of teachers and classmates to cooperate in the taking of pictures, and in obtaining written material, it was possible to effect a diversified photographic and feature arrangement of this book. Some Of the new ideas were obtained at the Associated Collegiate Press Convention held in Louisville, Kentucky during the last days of October. Ger- trude Zirbes, Wilton Baechler, and Jean Downing attended as Minneiska delegates. A system of awards for service on the Min- neiska vas ' augurated at the close of the 1936 HMinnie Awards e64e MINNEISKA GERTRUDF. ZIRBES ............. Editor-z'n-Cbicf WILTON. BAECH-LER ..........

Vice-Presidem ORRIN MOEN ......................... Secretary MERTON BOVVYICR ..................... Treasurer HELEN WILBER .......... Royal Purple Reporter MISS HOLCOMBE . . . THESPIAN Dramatic Club is one of the oldest organizations on the campus. Organized in 1921 by a group of twelve students, the Club has grown to a 111embership of sixty. Miss Flor- ence Holcombe has sponsored Thespian since its beginning. Thespian is open to all those interested in dram- atics, either for educational purposes or for pleas- ure. The club is entirely a working unit, and it is not the purpose to carry any who are not willing to take an active part. Membership may be earned by active participation in plays, through com- mittee work, typing of manuscripts, and by make- up and stage work. Regular meetings are held twice a month on the first and third Wednesdays at 7 oiclock in the Dramatic Workshop. Meet- ings are devoted to student productions, lessons in stage craft, costuming and make-up. Some of the speakers who helped to make the programs inter- esting were Mrs. OiConner and Mr. Fischer. SECOND SEMESTER CLARICE LEWERENZ ................... President EARL KRAUSE .................... Vice-President NORA BELLE MULLER .................. Secretary BERNARD HASTREITER ................. Treasurer SUSAN SIKHART .......... Royal Purple Reporter ........... Director Members are given opportunities to assist in entertainments for community clubs, radio, civic organizations, and for school affairs. Four major productions are given each year, and from twenty to thirty one act plays. Student directors are given charge of many of these shorter plays. In October Thespinn sponsored a presentation of C. Ray Smith's Olvera Street hl'larionettes from Los Angeles. Since the primary purpose of the club is educa- tional, only one social event is scheduled each year a Thespian dancing party which, this year, was held early in the second semester. However, parties are held at the meetings after initiation, at Christmas, and various other times. The following plays were given in 1936-1937: iiThe Bishop Misbehavesfi which began the series; iiThe Fool? and the discovery of new talent in Thespian; iiKing Leary in modern version; and iiThe Silver Chord.w gme
