W lwkcafe. . . Prom his own deep concern for world- affairs to his interest for each individual student, the life of Dr. Francis Flournoy, Professor of Historyand Political Science at the College of Emporia since 1938 , has provided a way of life for generations of students. To him this annual is dedicated as a means of saying thank you for a goal that he set, always out of reach and yet not out of reason. His distinguished career as professor in various Eastern universities , member of the United States Department of State, and author, has been used to enrich the lives of the classes he taught. His in- timate knowledge of the world has brought to life for hundreds of students the civilizations of the world . Far above his contribution to the intellectual life of the college stands his personal contribution to the campus. His humbleness 'and quietness always underscored by the assurance of knowledge and a deep faith in God has provided an example and in-- spiration to the students of his school. To him, the man who has made us work the hardest , taught us the most, and has been the College of Emporia to many alumni, we say thank you and God bless you.

Af as HLA an grecweloainf . . . WMM dcmyolfd With scripts and greasepaint, the Fighting Presbies forged ahead in the entertainment field this year. Utilizing combined efforts , teamwork , and co-operation, a large number of students put forth a great deal of effort and were rewarded with a highly successful drama and opera season. Coachhed by an expert staff, the Pre sby thespians undertook such plays as Liliom and Candida , both Broadway hi-ts , with no small amount of achievement. Teaming up with the music department, the players gave outstanding performances of operas , ranging from the faculty-written The Happy Prince to a Mozart standard, Bastien and Bas- tienne. Glancing at the season as a whole, we can proudly say that C. of E . has the champions in this field also. Taking a more detailed view of the year, we find an interesting variety of plays and operas . The season opener as far as the College was concerned, was a one-act adaptation of the French playwright Mo1iere's The Doctor in Spite of Himself. Under the direction of Professor D. W. McCaffrey, who adapted the orig- inal three-act satirical drama to this one-act version, the cast presented a thoroughly enjoyable half hour of comedy during a chapel period at the beginning of the fall semester. Throughout the year, repeat perform- ances were given, on stunt night during football Homecoming and at several high schools in the surrounding area. Shortly after the first performance of The Doctor in Spite of Himself , rehearsal began on the major production of the fall semester. The play selected for performance was Liliom , by the Hungarian play- wright, Perenc Molnar. Liliom is a legend in seven scenes and a prologue, and was such a success on Broadway in 1921 , that musical comedy composers Rogers and Hammerstein developed the play into the hit musical, Carousel.

Richard Having completed the score and libretto , the next task was to find a cast -- and a great one was found at C. of E . DeForest was chosen to sing the Happy Prince while Sue Roberts became his singing messenger, the Swallow. Harvey Harriman, Robert Ingold, and Don Wright were convincing, statue-minded village officers and administrators. The speaking roles held by Maurine Dolezal, Ruth Griffiths, Bruce Brigden, Donna Servey, Sharon Studer, Dale Lowery and Ed Dyche, all contributed to the effective portrayal of the aesthetic souls of the Prince and the Swallow, and the material minds of the Mayor, Town Counselor and the Artist. A string quartette with the addition of a bass , flute , clarinet, and piano brought the music of Mr. Raines to life , while stage settings designed and executed by Gerald Linder transported two audiences back to twelfth century Europe. On the same bill was the delightful one-act opera by Mozart, Bastien and Bastienne . This charming tale of a shepherdess and her lover was written when Mozart was only twelve years old. It was written especially for the amateur theatre of a family friend , the famous hypnotist, Dr. Me smer of Vienna. Cast in the C. of B. production were Barbara Beeson, as Bastienne, the shepherdess , Pat Clark as Bastien, her lover, and Harvey Harriman as Colas , a would-be sorcerer. The story of the opera involves a quarrel between the lovers . Then Colas steps in and, using his common sense, reunited them, attributing lt to his magical powers . The simplicity of the opera accounts for its charm and success. Music for this opera was supplied by Mr. Raines at the piano. As might have been expected, the combination of these two operas was heartily accepted by fans and critics alike. The final performance of the operas was the end of dramatic and operatic activity for the fall semester, and the participants then began trying to catch up for final exams .

Effectively selected to play the title role was Ri Lawrence , who made his final C . of E. ,stage appearance in this play. Cast with him in the principal roles were Barbara Beeson, Donna Servey, Katy Choguill, Wilma Ludiker, and Dale Lowery. With a fine supporting cast of twenty other -College students , these people gave a dramatic portrayal of incidents in the life and death of a Budapest carousel barker. Presented for the public on two evenings, Li1iom's combination of fantasy and sensitivity was enjoyed a great deal by Emporia play- goers. Before the last costume was hung up and the last dab of make-up was scraped off the Li1iom players , singers and thes- pians were preparing themselves for the Opera Workshop production which followed in two weeks. This was a performance eagerly anticipated, for the main production on the bill was the one-act opera The Happy Prince. The reason for the antic- ipation can be attributed to the fact that the opera was written by two members of the C. of E . faculty. The libretto was the final product of a story rewritten by Mr. D. W. McCaffrey. Originally a short story by Oscar Wilde , The Happy Prince was first adapted for production as a radio play by Mr. McCaffrey. An Increasing interest in opera prompted Mr. McCaffrey to rewrite the story again, this time in a form easily set to music. The libretto was then sent to Mr. Vernon Raines , assoc- iate professor of piano at the College. Mr. Raines then spent several months composing, orchestrating, and copying the music for the opera. The music was written in the style of the simple chamber opera in order to retain the charm and simplic- ity of the original story. LILIOM lPrincipalsl . Liliom . . . Richard Lawrence Julie ....

Th a rilliant performance that was eagerly accepted by the audiences. Music was provided by duo -plani sts . The second opera, The Secrets of Suzanne, was set in the early nineteen-twenties when a cigarette smoking female was highly- immoral in the eyes of society. Suzanne , Barbara Bee son and Sue Roberts in alternate performances , had secretly acquired the taste for the Turkish weed and tried in vain to keep it from the knowledge of her husband, Count Gil, Richard DeForest, who hated the smoking custom. She finally persuaded him that smoking was not as bad as society would have it, and he also took up the habit. Inspired performances both evenings gave the audiences a wonderful view of the humorous situation. The antics of the mute servant, Dale Lowery, added to the charm of the opera. Again, two pianos provided the musical setting. In regard to operatic productions this year, a great deal was accomplished--perhaps more than meets the audience eye. Few people realize the value of the experience of appearing in a production of this type . First of all, the singers obtain a great deal of training which is invaluable if they intend to pursue a career in professional singing. Those works presented in the spring production were especially helpful. Since they were contemporary, they offered a challenge to the singers, both tonally and rhythmlcally . Secondly, these experiences introduce a wide variety of works, increasing the singer's musical horizons. Finally, singing in an opera developes the singers' much-needed stage presence , a characteristic required for a good and convincing performance. To generalize, opera workshop gives the student a well-rounded background in his chosen field. With the two operas in May, the season closed for those interested in drama with music. There remained one more production, however. Although G, B. Shaw's Candida was presented before the aforementi children's play was over in March. oned operas , rehearsal did not begin until the e two voices in the cast gave b BEAUTY AND THE BEAST The Prince ....

Thespians at the outset of the spring semester was the annual Children's Theatre Play, which is sponsored by the American Association of University Women. The play chosen this year was Beauty and the Beast , a dramatization of the old French folk tale. The direction of Mr. Robert L. Richey, a newcomer to the C. of E. faculty and technical assistant to Mr. McCaffrey, brought apes , princes , and fairy godmothers to life for an auditorium full of Lyon County children the afternoon of March 8 . The unfor- tunate prince who had been turned into a beast, by a magician and his daughter who had turned themselves into apes, were re- created in the evening for the enjoyment of Emporia school children and their parents. Trick scenery, lights , flashes, and sounds added to the magical and fairytale effect of the production. Special masks were constructed to make the apes and the beast realistic for the audiences. All in all, the performance was one of intrigue and fas-' cination for both those participating and for those in the audience. A In order to provide time for adequate preparation on the part of the singers , casting of the Spring Opera Workshop production was done while Beauty and the Beast was still in rehearsal stages. Chosen for presentation in May during the Fine Arts Festival were two contemporary works. First was The Telephone by the French composer Gian-Carlo Menotti. This was followed by The Secrets of Suzanne by the famed Ermanno Wolf-Ferrari. The Telephone , set in modern times, concerned the plight of Ben, sung by Harvey Harriman, and his fiancee, Lucy, played by Pat Clark. Lucy had a passion for telephone conversation and was talking constantly. Ben had come to her apartment to propose , but found that she was on the telephone so much of the time that he was unable to gain her attention long enough to pop the question . He finally solved his problem by going to a pay phone and calling her on the telephone . - BAS'l'IEN AND BASTIENNEU Bastienne . . . . . . . . . . . BarbaraBeeson Bastien . . . . .

Up to this point, the discussion of the drama and opera season has been concerned primarily with those factors readily seen by theatre audiences: the singers and actors and their perfonnances. It might be well worth-while to glance backstage for a look at the activity in that area during the past year. Going back to the first production, then, we find that technical duties for The Doctor in Splte of Himself were chiefly in costuming. Since the play was produced with the thought in mind that it would be taken to surrounding communities for presentation, it was decided by the directors not to use any scenery whatsoever, thus eliminating the problem of set construction. In order to present a quality production, consequently, emphasis was placed on costuming Several new costumes were designed by Mr. Richey, technical director of the C. of E . theatre , and added to the theatre wardrobe. Although emphasis on costuming prevailed throughout the season, scenery posed the largest problem in the year's second produc - tion. Ferenc Molnar wrote his play Li1iom in seven scenes and a prologue, calling for a minimum of six different stage settings . This was perhaps the most difficultly-staged play ever to be produced at C. of E. but in spite of all its technical problems, the play was a great success. The difficulty was found not so much in the designing of the sets as it was in the changing of scenes. This problem was conquered, however, by efficiently utilizing the facilities found in the grids above the stage. For example , the script called for a secluded park scene following the massive carousel scene found in the prologue. By lowering a tree and a black curtain from the high stage ceiling, and by moving a park bench and lamp post from the off stage area onto the stage, the scene change was accomplished in less than sixty seconds. These methods were usedthroughout the play. THE TELEPHONE Cast Ben . . .... Harvey Harriman Lucy . '. ....

Shaw's hundredth anniversary, the C. of E. players presented his 'pleasant play Candida , A well-balanced cast effectively portrayed extraordinary people caught in the eternal triangle . Eugene Marchbanks, a rather supersensitive youthful poet, ,played by Dale Lowery, finds himself in love, or so it seems to him, with Candida, Shaw's concept of the ideal woman, who is played by Carolyn Bowen. Conflict naturally arises when Marchbanks' conscience forces him to reveal his emotions to Candida's husband, the practical and realistic preacher, James Morell, played by Ed Dyche. ,Comedy relief is provided by Richard Doxtater as Burgess, a cockney clothing manufacturer and Candida's father. The cast is rounded out with Harriet Adamson as Miss Proserpine Garnett, Morell's secretary who has a deep affection for him, and Iim Richards playing the part of Lexy Mill, a curate who would like to be as great a speaker and as respected a minister as Morell. , Subtle humor, satire, conflict, and oral combat prevail throughout the play, and proved to befan entertaining combination for two audiences. f','f. 'f Under the direction of Mr. McCaffrey,- the actors were able to portray their respective characters convincingly, complete with English accent. The stage sets and costirmes were again quite pleasing. Designed by Gerald Linder, the sets were constructed under the supervision of Mr. Richey, and the costumes were executed by Mrs. N. L. Lowery.

It is difficult to find a place to begin reviewing the seasons activities, since musical achieve - ments were so varied. Perhaps the group of musicians seen most often by C. of'E. students and fans is the pep band, which made appearances at all football games , all home basketball games , and at pep chapels at the College . The organization gave a great deal to the support of the athletic teams. Robert Ingold was director of the pep band this year, and proved to be quite competent. Another group of budding musicians and students , who like to sing, is the C. of E . Chorale. Composed of sixty voices, the Chorale made several trips out of town this year for performances in churches throughout Kansas . In addition to these performances and the annual spring tour', the Chorale gave outstanding perfonnances in Memorial Chapel at Christmas, Easter, and during the Fine Arts Festival in May. Directing the Chorale again this year was Mr. Vernon Raines. His assistant was Mr. Roger Hodson. This year huge strides were taken in the direction of highegandards and quality.

Settings ln periods different from those in previous productions caused a need for more new costumes for Bastien and Bast1en.ne and The Happy Prince. The one-act operas did not call for complicated scene changes, but their very style required unique set designs. This requirement was filled by the artistic ability of Gerald Linder, whose previous sets may be recalled by College theatre fans. Mr. Llnder's simple design for Bastien and Bast1enne enhanced the charm of the opera, while the twelfth century European village square created for The Happy Prince captured the imagination of everyone who saw it. A . More costumes were a requisite of the Children's Theatre production in the spring semester. Apes , queens , princes, princesses and fairy godmothers all had to be convincingly outfitted. The fantasy and magic of the play, Beauty and the Beast, necessitated hidden openings in the sets as well as special sound and light effects. These were all accomplished under the competent direction of Mr. McCaffrey and Mr. Richey. H The final stage production of the season, the Spring Opera Workshop presentation, posed no extremely difficult problems since both The Telephone and The Secrets of Suzanne were set in modern periods. Attractive costuming too, was achieved with little effort. The technical staff for the season's productions was under the direction of Mr. Richey and was composed of .members ofthe Dra- matic Production, Opera Workshop , and Ch1ld.ren's Theatre Workshop classes with Fred Schmidt as stage manager,,Dwa1ne Tallent as lighting technician, and Dale Lowery as publicity manager.

Jacobson, head of the music department, instituted a new ensemble at the College this year. The Brass Choir received a great amount of due attention this year, and has prospects for an excellent future. Composed largely of those members of the Concert Band who play brass instruments , the Choir gave several concerts and a vesper service at the College. These per- formances were so popular that several trips were made to other Kansas cities for vesper and church services. Dr. Jacobson is justly proud of this infant organization and expects increased popularity in the future. Parent organization to the Brass Choir is the Concert Band. A thirty-member team of industrious music students , the Concert Band performed at chapel and public concerts throughout the season. It closed itskyear with a series of outdoor concerts in the spring. These concerts were performed in the area in front of Kenyon Hall and enjoyed appreciative audiences. The remaining instrumental group at C . of E . is the orchestra. The orchestra played two concerts this year with outstanding success, in spite of its small size. Under the leadership of Dr. Jacobson, the orchestra carried on in the traditional standards of the school. Some of the members of the orchestra formed the nucleus of the small chamber orchestra which played the music for the opera The Happy Prince. , COURTESY OF CONGRESSMAN EDWARD H.

The Fighting Presbies of the College of Emporia have again produced a football team and a football record of which we can justifiably be very proud. The 1955-'56 season is the third straight 'year in which our hard- charging line and fast backfield have gone through its regular schedule undefeated and untied. Last year the College of Emporia set a new national record in total offense and this year we surprised everyone by turning around and becoming the .defensive leader of the nation. Our stone-wall, better known as a line, and some flashes of lightning, commonly referred to as a backfield, did a remarkable job in yielding only two touchdowns in nine games. The season opener was a real toughie which a good defense won for us against Warrensburg 7-0. Elm was shifted to fullback from end in the Friends game and our offensive broke loose for a 34-6 victory. Baker's passing attack was bottled up by our well-balanced Presby team and we won the third game of the year. Bethany's homecoming was spoiled as we rolled to a 35-0 win. The upset hopes of McPherson were spoiled, as they did no better than a goose egg compared to our four touchdowns and two extra points . The William Jewell Cardinals came to visit up with sweet revenge in mind for a humiliating defeat last year, but we outclassed them to the tune of a 45-0 score to prove that we were truly the best small college team in the Middle West In the Kansas Conference championship game, the Fighting Presbies roared past Kansas Wesleyan 39-O. A tough and inspired Bethel College team made us really work to win on Homecoming day, and we allowed them a score as we emerged . t . Vic orious 20-7. The perfect and appropriate end to a season packed full of sweet victories was the 25-O con- quering of our old rivals from Ottawa. Thanks to each member of the Fighting Presby football team of 1955-'56 for a season which we are all very proud of and shall never forget!

We had good little men in Reichardt, Freeman, Bocquin and Young, who were fast , good ball hawks , and had good shoot- ing eyes. We were fortunate to have big boys that were co-ordinated and could handle themselves Well on the floor. Gaylord, Danenhauer and Muck all did their share of the rebounding chores and were very adept at tip -ins . The basketball team started out rather slow, as they dropped three games be- fore entering into the victory colum.n. It almost seems as though we have a tradition to start out the season by losing several gam.es and then really playing good basketball at the start of a new year. When the student body . left for Christmas Vacation, a I-3 win-loss record was all the team had accomplished and when the students returned , the KCAC Holiday Tournament had built the win colum.n up to 3 and the loss column to 4, which still was none too good. -Then it happened! The Fighting Presbies caught fire and won five straight conference ball games including a record-breaking 108-79 victory over Friends. Our winning streak was broken as Bethel added us to their long list of victims. But the Presbies are always fighters and they bounced back to win the next four gam.es that led up to the crucial game against once-beaten Bethel. Although we put up a valiant fight, Bethel played like the champions they were and we settled back into our third straight second place spot in the Kansas Conference. After a win over Ottawa and a loss to Kansas Wes- leyan, we finished a successful season with a 96-86 victory over Kansas Wes- leyan. kets No Matter Which DON BOCQUIN JACK IONES Guard, 5' 9 Forward, 6' 1 TIM LOMAX Forward., 6 BERT BROWN Guard, 5' 10 FRANCIS RODERICK DICK DILLON Center, 6' 5 lf2 Center, 6' 1 r DUANE PICKETT 2 Q TERRY YOUNG Forward, 5' 10 1f2 Guard, 5' 11 771W , .
