Bismarck State College - Markota Yearbook (Bismarck, ND)

Text from Pages 1 - 93 of the 1948 volume:

X MARK 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. We couldn’t include all the events that happened this year — we’ve only shown ?limpses of them. However, we will be justlv rewarded for our hard work if the 948 edition of the Markota, in any way, will make your memories of college life more vivid. Administration Staff Student Council Sophomores Freshmen Nurses Activities Sports 4 Snapshots Dedication This annual is dedicated to the past and present students of B. J.C. To the past, for their efforts in helping establish our present day college. Their fore- thought has led to the establishment of many of the activities that are now part of our daily school lives. To the present students who are carrying on where the others left off by making it a bigger and better school everyday. B.J.C. began as just an idea. In 1939 that idea, with the help of the business men and peo- ple of Bismarck, began to function as a- college. The junior college tops many of the larger sized schools of the same type in spite of the fact that it has less space and facilities. To many it is known as the Northwest's fastest growing institution of higher learning. We, as students, are proud and happy to be part of such a growing institution. 5 P a a 3, -M- DR. WALTER J. SWENSON ”The Dean”, as he is called by all at is perhaps one of the busiest persons to be seen at the college. His many duties include such things as being counselor, instructor and serving as a friend to anyone who seeks his able guidance. Dean Swenson received his B. A. at Luther College and his M. A. and Ph. D. at the University of North Dakota. Because of his extensive knowledge and ex- perience in psychological work, he has been able to guide many young men and women into the field that they are most ably suited for. His unfailing assis- tancehas given invaluable aid to all who have attend- ed our institution. 8 LUBLLA NELSON Librarian CHARLES E. HOOK Mathematics,Physics C. T.

To be exact, they lost five games and tied one. But the Mystics, resplendent in their new $2,000 green-and-gold uniforms, showed they had lots of fieht and drive. In the first game of the season they even held a 6-0 halftime lead over heavily-favored Minot St:te Teachers College. As the season went along, however, Coach George Shaky Schaumberg and Assistant Coach Wilbur ”WebbM Arenstein found that their small squad gradually was being depleted by injuries. The most successful game of the year was homecom- ing. In that contest the Mystics played the North Dakota Agricultural College B team to a 6-6 tie in a cold, driving rain. The weather conditions were almost ident- ical to those -which prevailed a year ago wher the 3JC-AC game ended in a scoreless tie.

However, they did come very close to beating Valley City, which finished second in the North Dakota Intercol- legiate Conference standings. The Mvstics led by three points with only 55 seconds remaining, but the Vikings managed to eke out a 46-45 decision. BJC was hit hard by the loss of center William Mike McCabe midway in the season. He was one of our returning lettermen. The others were forward Kenny Hoff and guards Don Schultz and Adrian McDonald. McDonald was unable to join the team until late in the season, and, as a result, played only the last few games. This much can be said for the Mystics: Coach Clem Kelley and Assistant Coach Irv Huss turned out a team that practiced faithfully, had a fighting heart, and gave a good account of themselves.
