Text from Pages 1 - 93 of the 1947 volume:

Foreword In THIS BOOK, published by the students of Bismarck Junior College, we have sought to bring to the Bismarck Junior College students, alumni, and friends of the past, present, and future a complete and comprehensive view of our college life. We’ve tried to include a complete picture of this past year’s leading attractions. So many people have had a part in the making of this book — the job would have been impossible without their help. Therefore, we thank each of you who has had a part in the growth of this book. Wc couldn’t include all the events that happened this year — we’ve only shown glimpses of them. However, we will be justly rewarded for our hard work if the 1947 edition of the Markota, in any way, will make your memories of college life more vivid.

Dedication THIS annual is dedicated in sincere appreciation and acknowledgement of the assistance offered to our college by the business men (and citizens) of the city of Bismarck. Without their support this yearbook would have been entirely impos- sible as would have been our football team and many other of our social activities. Their backing was an essential cog in our wheel of advancement. There were, of course, those among them who stood out exceedingly more than the average; those who were directly responsible for getting many of the moves into high gear. To those who bore the greater portion of the burden, we wish to extend our greater thanks. • • I DR. WALTER J. SWENSON “rpHE DEAN,” as he has always been known to students of B. J. C., has been the head of that institution since its beginning in 1939. During the past nine years he has been friend, coun:elor and teacher to the many young men and women who have attended B.'J. C. Although the Dean teaches a number of varied subjects, he is perhaps best known to his students for his classes which are of psychological nature. His extensive knowledge of this subject has made these classes among the most interesting at B. J. C. Dean Swenson received his B.A. at Luther College and his M.A. and Ph.D. at the University of North Dakota. Many of the students’ first introduction to the Dean are through the various helpful vocational and aptitude tests which he gives upon the student’s entrance. His able assistance to the students through this medium has been immeasurable; particularly in the case of the enormous influx of veterans during the past year and a half. His genuine interest and competent guid- ance to all who have attended B. J. C. has been invaluable. • 9 • RUTH RUDSER Art C. J.

A complete and comprehensive study of the fields of chemistry is offered and the facilities of the labora- tory are perfect for the experi- ments carried on by the various classes that frequent it. Library In the quiet surroundings and pleasant background of the library, the college students do their research and studying that is required to receive satis- factory grades in this institu- tion. Several of the better known “wolves” of the college spend the quiet hours of the morning reminiscing their past experiences in the form of “conferences” in the adjoining rooms in the library. I I Biology “Pass the scalpel, John” and “Where is the probe, Bill?” were familiar questions asked by the students of Mr. C. J. Eugene’s Biology classes when they studied the anatomy of fetal pigs. These classes were not limited to the study of animals, for students also delved into the microscopic wonders of the plant world. The Biology lab is very well equipped for these studies. Physics “Where was that shot from?” This question and many other strange ones could easily have been propounded by any instructor or student when the Physics classes of Mr. Charles Hook are carrying out one of their many diversified experiments. These classes in the pioneer science of Physics offer practical and theoretical appli- cations of the various laws of the physical world. KATHRYN HELLING Editor WITH camera in hand, Kakie follow- ing with “date” book in hand, and any number of helpers following with light cords, reflectors, camera-stand, etc., cheerful, ever-smiling Lex was a familiar sight about the halls and in' the various classrooms in those days when everyone was trying to make the deadline. To him, we express our sincere appreciation not only for his worthwhile endeavor on be- half of this publication, but also for his timely wit that kept the rest of the staff in good humor. TT AKIE could be found practically any night of the week (afternoons on week ends) in the B.J.C. office surrounded by write-ups, pictures, cartoons, and help- ers. We think she did a mighty fine job keeping everyone busy and happy — and editing what we think is the best yet “MARKOTA.” % fyj y.J ■'JbJM (GUM rXc V Art oX cW , Ci ej:t ♦ 18 • LEX COLLIS Photographer EDITORIAL STAFF Standing, left to right: Myron Atkinson, Assistant Editor; Ernest Erickson, David Bonneville, Snapshot Editors; and Harold Perry, Assistant Editor.

THE first B.J.C. student council appeared in 1939, and has functioned intermittently since as an organizer and promoter of student activities. The council is formed by the selection of six representatives of the student body, three from the freshman class and three from the sophomore class. One of the council members is then elected president. Elected by the student body to the student council as freshman representatives were Don Schultz, Benny Boatright, and Art Bauer; as sophomore repre- sentatives, Kathryn Helling, Myron Atkinson, and Ernie Erick- son. Benny Boatright was chosen by the council to serve as president. Throughout the school year 1946-47 the council worked to organize social and athletic activities. The first B.J.C. Homecoming was a great success. The highlight of the various school dances was the Christmas Formal, held at the Bismarck Country Club. The student council also organized many of the successful pep meetings. All in all, the student council, by its diligent effort, did much to further student interest in B.J.C. . 24 • PRESIDENT BENNY BOATRIGHT Class Officers Left to right: Norman Jenson, President; Kenneth Little, Secretary-Treasurer; Dorothy Larsen, Vice President.

BISMARCK Junior College is perhaps unique in the Prc-Collcgc course offered this year to veterans wishing a “brush-up” before going on to bigger and better things — college. Always anxious to do everything possible for the veterans. Dean Swensen asked for and received the services of Mr. William Meier, Mr. Leonard Offerdahl, Mrs. Agnes Bantz, Mr. Nick Barbie, and Mr. Joseph Larivec who in turn have burned the midnight oil many a night preparing for their extra class. 51 Bismarck Back row, left to right: Florence Simon, Carol Oppermann, Phyllis Schuler, Dorothy Roesler, Jean Hedahl, Jule Mumby.

DURING the first six months of the three-year training course for nurses, the students take the majority of their classes at Bismarck Junior College. These classes include Psychology, Dean Swenson; Sociology, Mr. Lee; Pathology, Micro- biology, Anatomy, Physiology, Materia Medica, Mr. Eugene; and Chemistry, Mr. Larivee. Nursing techniques and other fundamental instructions are given by the doctors and nurses of the staff at the hospital. . 54 .

In the fall a hayride was held for the members and their friends. The winter activities included a skating and a Come as You Arc” party. In April, a dance was held in the High School gymnasium with music furnished by the Plainsmen. Club advisor was Miss Luella Nelson.

The first issue under the title “U Name It” proved to be so successful that several other editions were published during the year. Publication advisor is Mr. Sidney J.

The meetings of this club were held in the Pub throughout the year. The main activities were pin-ball playing and bull sessions. It is a very exclusive club and holds the honor of being the only club of its kind at Bismarck Junior College. Officers of this club are as follows: Dave Bonneville, President; Benny Boatright, Vice-President; and Frank Eernisse, Secretary-Treasurer. • 62 • Home Coming HOT coffee — hot dogs — doughnuts! The salesmen at the Minot game were as conspicuous as the team. The coffee was hot and good; net results were satisfied customers and an increased treasury. After the game the crowd surged to the High School gym where they danced informally to the music of a juke box.. When the teams arrived bedecked in fresh white tape, they replayed the game on the dance floor. A wonderful time was had by all. • 63 • m Christmas Formal APPROXIMATELY seventy-five couples attended the Christmas Formal at the Bismarck Country Club December 19th. Soft dreamy music inter- spersed with rhumbas and a bit of jive was furnished by Wen Schuh and his orches- tra. The beautiful decorations included a false ceiling of red and green crepe paper, cedar roping, Christmas trees, wreaths, and pine cones. The smashing success of this dance insured the possibilities of a Spring Prom. • 64 • B.J. C.

Second row, left to right: Taft, O’Brien, and Renden. The Band played for all of the games and pep meetings that were held during the year. Its organization was partly due to the work of Roger Holkesvik who was the prime mover behind it. “JT1HE PLAINSMEN were organized last fall and have since gained a wide repu- tation for their classy music. Not only has this orchestra played for several successful college dances, but has also had many engagements throughout the states of North and South Dakota. Front: Roger Holkesvik, Myron Atkinson, and Bob Watson. Back: Kenny Taft, Don Erickson, Duane Carlson, and Winnielou Halverson. 65 Spring Formal A FALSE ceiling of lilac-colored crepe with lilac sprays adorning the mantel and refreshment table gave a vivid portrayal of the theme “Lilac Time.” The “Cinderellas” of B.J.C. discarded their jeans and saddle shoes for gold and silver slippers and sumptuous flowing gowns. The melodious rhythm of the music offered by “The Plainsmen” held the audience spellbound. • 66 • Via Greyhound WESTWARD HO------ We’re off (to Dickinson, that is). A gay time is being had by all. Poker players utilize the rear of the bus, but the only upset here is that Kenny forgot his deck. Oh, by the way, don’t ever stop to buy an ice cream cone at the Casaloma. EAST BOUND--------- All out at Valley City (out of the bus, I mean). Lee and Bill, in red cord shirts, are the loudest characters there. Needs must say that little Irene Schumacher is still peeved about the fare she has to pay, for her theory is “Half-Pint-Half-Price.” • 67 • |kvWVAV.VH.

THE first football team ever to represent Bismarck Junior College on the grid- iron was formed last year and working under several handicaps from sickness and injuries to shortages of equipment they were still able to come out with a 500% standing, being downed twice by the strong Beavers of Minot State Teachers College and defeating the Bottineau Foresters twice by clean margins. Their fifth game was with the “B” team of the Fargo A. C. and ended in a 0 to 0 tie. The greatest thanks should go to Coach “Shaky” Schaumberg and his assistants, Evan Lipp and Willie Arenstein, for their work in whipping such a team together on short notice. Bowling BEING a year for “firsts,” a bowling league was organized with Lyle DeVan acting as president, Don Barbie as vice-president, and Kenny Wing as the secretary-treasurer. Under their supervision the handicaps were arranged and the team standings were kept as official for the league. Tire league was composed of eight teams, six men’s teams and two women’s teams. In the regular Sunday afternoon meets, close and tense games were fought among the various teams. Each team is the representative of a local business firm and bears its name as the name of the team. • 72 • FIRST SEMESTER “CHAMPS' TEAMS Missouri Valley Motor Co. Don Vendsel, Capt.

Our hoop-stars give credit for most of their success to their two coaches, Irv Huss and Art Carlson, who contributed a great deal of their time for the perfection of the ball clnb. The close teamwork and friendship exhibited by the members of the team foward one another was a very great stimulus in providing an incentive for the wonderful support that was shown by a large portion of the student body when the team played on out-of-town courts. -iv Season Scores Mystics 48 Minot State Teachers College ... 69 Mystics 52 Glendive Junior College..............48 Mystics 45 Valley City State Teachers College . 43 Mystics 50 Glendive Junior College..............64 Mystics 63 Bottineau School of Forestry ... 54 Mystics 48 Bottineau School of Forestry ... 40 Mystics 32 Dickinson State Teachers College . 29 Mystics 56 Devils Lake Junior College .... 44 Mystics 56 Minot State Teachers College ... 62 Mystics 53 Dickinson State Teachers College . 52 Mystics 57 Bottineau School of Forestry ... 35 Mystics 43 Bottineau School of Forestry ... 57 Mystics 70 Devils Lake Junior College .... 29 Total 671 Total...............................626 • 77 • MISSING PICTURES Mike McCabe Don Schultz Dale Saxik Bill Glum Student Manager ART ANDERSON Center Track As THIS publication goes to press there are rumors to the effect that Bismarck Junior College will have its first track team this spring.

He no doubt will have an eager and excellent group of aspirants to work with judging from all the available fellows interested.

Van Wyk. 95 On the last two pages of this book is an artist’s conception of the proposed Bismarck Junior College building. More than a dream, this is a practical necessity. Increased enrollments in both the high school and college have made the available space in the high school building greatly inadequate. 96 Since Bismarck Junior College is not tax-supported, much of the cost of the new building must be met by subscription.
