IN MEMORIAM Charles E. Hook 1899-1956 —ancJ congratulate the graduating class from me.” A few hours after this request had been made, the teacher who made it and who so many students fondly called ‘‘Charlie” had passed away. The next evening the congratulations that Charles Hook was destined not to give were conveyed for him by a faculty member to the 1956 graduation class. Like every great teacher, Charles Hook stood for all that was right and manly. He was an example of the gentle Christian who spoke ill of none, yet saw good in all. He helped make men out of the boys who sat in his classes. What he stood for and believed, rubbed off on his students, and though they might fail in ‘‘math”, they learned well to discriminate between the true and the false, the noble and the shoddy. And as Charlie’s boys succeed in their professions and win places of honor and respect in the communities where they work and live, they—as we do who knew and loved him as one of the faculty—will cherish the memory and the privilege of having known Charles E. Hook as a teacher and a friend. Sidney J. Lee FPC I LTV ADMINISTRATION SIDNEY J. LEE Dean of Bi smarck Junior College RALPH WERNER I.E.

The pipers are on the spot when the college wants to make a hit with the public. Leading the troops of the 1956-57 Veterans' Club are Duane Hummel, Treasurer; Daniel Frank, President; and Bill Fritz, Vice-Presi- dent. The Vets did a splendid job this year of solving the parking problem on campus, with “Sheriff Bittis and his deputies handing out the parking tickets and imposing fines upon violators. The Club also played a major role in the Hobo Daze activities by sponsoring a successful an d delic ious barbecue.. Veterans’ Club ROW 1. H. Wald, J. Pudwell, R. Hoffman, A. Belk, L. Grosgebauer, K.

Lettermen’s Qub The Lettermen's Club is organized by award winners in football, basketball, and track for the purpose of raising funds to purchase jackets for the members. This is done mainly through sponsorship of school dances, raffles, and taking charge of the concessions at BJC home basketball games. Also, part of their funds was raised this year by helping to move the merchandise of the J.C.Penney's Store into their new location. Another of their varied activities is taking charge of Kangaroo Court for Hobo Daze. Officers: D. Dwyer, Vice-President; E. Agre, Treasurer; K. Hilligoss, President. King Chuck Wilson and Queen Patsy Manly are crowned by J. F. McGurren, President, Bismarck Chamber of Commerce at halftime of the Homecoming Game Student Association President Harry Falconer stands by with the other royal crown. Hobo Daze BJC’s Homecoming festivities are celebrated in a hobo daze. The annual affair begins several weeks in ad- vance when the Letterman’s Club puts down the rules and regulations for the two days. No shaving, no makeup, no combing of hair are just a few of the rules which each student must abide by, or else! One of the highlights of this celebration is the rag-clad hobos wending their ways through the streets of Bismarck in a most roustabout manner. Following this comes the Kangaroo Court which is held on one of the main corners in downtown Bismarck. It’s here where punishment is administered to all the uncooperative bums. After this display of Skulduggery, the undignified hobos tramp their way back to the school for the handout feast. The big event of the day is the football game atwhich, during the half, the King and Queen of the hobos are crowned to reign over their tattered subjects. In the evening these battered hobos come out in all their pomp and splendor for the homecoming celebration dance. Pages Eunice Johnson and Massud Tejaratchi flash their royal smiles as they show their appreciation of Hobo Daze. THE HOMECOMING DANCE Tattered students blossom out in their best attire for this occasion. At the dance the King and Queen are presented with gifts by the Student Association President. LAW BREAKING HOBOS A Kangaroo Court is held downtown for those students who do not abide by the rules. A FEAST FOR THE BUMS Starved students enjoy good hobo hash at an outdoor picnic after the parade. THE CELEBRATION BEGINS BJC Hobos parade through the city, ad- vertising the big game. Political Organizations History was made at the college this year as students formed Young Republican and Democrat Organizations. Highlighting a month of political campaigning and organizing of political parties was the mock election, held November 1. The election was proposed and conducted by the Mystician Staff. Results were released showing that BJC voters, in a total of 250 votes cast, followed a close parallel with the National Elections. The vic- torious Young Republican Party was invited to sponsor the hatcheck rooms at the Governor’s Inaugural Ball. All proceeds earned went into their club funds.
