The present members of' this group very capahly fulfill these qualifications, and their administration of edu- cational matters has always been honest and faithful. Under the able leadership of their president, Dr. L. E. Brenz, who has served continuously as president since 1928. they have been untiring in their efforts to secure the best in educational ideas and principles for the school system. During the past year, they have debated many subjects and given their best advice to the system. Other members of the board are C. G. Holmsten, Dr. L. M. Beatson, Dr. R. C. Young, Dr. R. L. Ferguson and Dean Trueblood, Executive officer for the board is C. E. St. John, Superin- tendent of Schools. PAGE 6 - E. A. Funk Dean ,,,...- I Dean E. A. Funk pro- vides the junior college with that silent support so necessary to the up- keep of school standards. Though he is not seen so often in the Juco halls, he is an ever present factor, working behind the scenes. Last winter in a chapel talk, Mr. Funk expressed his interest and concern in both administrative and Juco problems. We, the students, recognize this concern and appreciate it. Mr. Funk received his A. B. degree from the Missouri State Teachers College and his M. S. de- gree from the University of Kansas. He also has done graduate work at the University of Chicago and Wisconsin University, If a friend in need is a friend indeed Kurt R. Galle is certainly a friend to the Jucos. Whether one needs his schedule changed, credit on bills, or a place to work, Mr. Galle is always ready to hear the problem and competent to supply the need. No college can progress steadily without those who smooth over the rough places and push along the laggards. Mr. Galle not only supplies this smoothing touch and push, but also contributes sym- pathy and understanding to every day junior college life. Besides his duties: as assistant dean, Mr. Galle is also instructor of social science. He received his A. B. Degree from Bethel College at Newton and his A. M. Degree from Chicago University, majoring in history and political sciences. He also attended summer sessions at the University of Kansas and Wisconsin University. K. R. Galle Asst. Dean Something About The Faculty Here we pause to pay annual tribute to the faculty for, unfortunately, most Jucos rarely get around to this expression of gratitude more than once a year. Seriously, though, few students leave Junior College without having realized at some time their indebtedness to their instructors. The Juco teachers not only work constantly and consistently to teach the students the ele- mentary facts of set coursesg they are also ever on the alert to find and practice both new and approved methods of college education, to find and present current ideas and knowledge, and they have the courage to find and demonstrate new attitudes. This year the students have been especially grateful to the faculty for its whole-hearted interest and aid and we have not forgotten the other hours the instructors have spent coaching extra-curricular events and sponsoring college organizations. PAGE 7 Paul M. Johnson, journalism instructor and sponsor of the Tigerama, received his B. S. degree from Kansas State Teachers College of Emporia and has advanced credits at the University of Wisconsin and the University of Colorado.

He was vice-president of his class last year and was an enthusiastic worker. When he withdrew at the end of the first semester, Erle Volkland, president of his class in his freshman year, was selected to serve the second seiiiester. Analee Hill, the vice pres- ident was a member of the National Honor Society in high school and also editor of the high school annual. Dick Howard, secretary-trea- surer, was an editor of the Ark Light in high school and has been very active in college work. Ruth Knedler and Samuel Maier were the sophomore represent- atives to the Student Council. Both are active workers in character building organizations. The class sponsors were Miss Thelma Hall and Daniel C. Stark. The Sophomores, this year, have been instrumental in forward- ing all the present activities of the junior college and have also added one thing to the general credit of the organization. With the aid and cooperation of the freshman class, they have been able to secure the privilege of dancing at the social functions for the first time. , 1fAo1 ll Sophomores . . .

Freshmen The freshman class of the Arkansas City Junior College includes 170 of the 260-odd members of a student body which is drawn from seven different states and represents over forty different cities. Victor Bryant is the president of the class with four other officers under him. They are Madeline Miller, vice presi- dent, Virginia Dee, secretary, and Virginia Vogle and Ray- mond Ausmus, student council representatives. Since this is a junior college, a closer relationship exists between the two classes than that found in a four year college. This makes it difficult to distinguish between classes and therefore they are more like one big class instead of two. Nearly all the social activities are planned as joint meet- ings with great success. Of course there have been times when the classes have desired to break away to have a class party or picnic, but this is the exception rather than the rule. It is therefore understood why so little is done by any one class, and the freshmen are always well represented on all the important committees throughout the college. Working with the officers of the sophomore class, the freshmen helped to inaugurate dancing as entertainment at the social func- tions. X ,qi PAGE 19 Y. W. C. A .... 'LHOW to Live on Twenty-Four Hours a Day was the book used by the Y. W. C. A. for their study and discussion this year, with the majority of meetings being held in the homes of the mem- bers. Special speakers of the fall and winter were Miss Merrill Pope, who told of her interesting Mexican trip, and Miss Rose Cologne. child psy- chologist. Activity was not limited to their own group, for the Y. W. also contributed to the Hood relief, sponsored a drive for food donations at Thanks- giving and gave a Christmas party for about 30 needy children. Julia Shea was president of the oijanization, Ruth Knedler, vice-president, Marjorie Anne Swin- ney, secretary and Analee Hill treasurer Other cabinet officers appear in picture. Miss Pauline B. Sleeth and Miss Thelma E. Hall sponsor the group. PAGE 20 .W.C.A.. . . pep . Pep Club . . . .An exceptionally laige junfor college pep club was one of the more actfve organizations in sshool this year with the roll containing more than sixty names. Antong the functions of the club this year was the ifoiination of a constitution drawn up by Helen WV21Cl, vice president, and adopted by majority vote of the club. At all the basketball and football games. refreshments were sold by members under the direction of Analee Hill, iinance chairman, and her assistant. Marjorie Anne Swinney. Members of the cheerleading squad were Virginia Vogel, Julia Shea and Will Etta Long. Officers for the club were president, Dick How- ardg secretary. Sara Stanleyg and student council representative, Mary Barkley, besides those al- ready named. Miss Wilma Imes and Miss Anne I nwley were the faculty sponsors. Public Spealcing . . . The junior college public speaking department, under the able leadership of Miss Pauline B. Sleeth, has worked hard and accomplished much in bringing the name of Arkansas City Junior College into the spotlight. Besides providing plays for the junior college assemblies and civic organizations, this depart- ment also furnishes many programs for various organizations in the country schools. The major project of this class is the annual junior college play which is always looked for- ward to by both students and townspeople. It has been the custom in the past to give this play as a lyceum number at Cedarvale. Plans are also being made this year for guest appearances at Chorus . . . Every kind of music is sung by the choir--oper- atic, classical, popular, oratorio and sacred,-- un- der the direction of Charles L. Hinchee. This year four numbers arranged by Noble Cain were added to the college repetoire and the group's appear- ances in assembly were eagery awaited. As in the past 'live years, the chorus sung in the annual presentation of the Messiah , and also The Gilbert and Sullivan opera, The Gondoliers , the annual musical oitering, had Nina Maurine Davis, Albert Lambert, Margaret Seal, Virginia Holman, Winfred Barker, Captola Shelhame1', and Robert Clark as leads from the junior college, and proved to be very entertaining. A. E. San Roniani directed the orchestra for the production Winlielcl and Wichita. For social purposes this department has car- ried on the plan of Dinner Club that was started several years ago. This club meets once a month for dinner and a program is furnished by the dif- ferent members of the class. Officers of the class are Analee Hill, president, Ruth Knedler, vice- president, Maxine Palmer, secretary and Lura Fitzgerald. treasurer. and Miss Edith Joyce Davis was in charge of the dance numbers. Membei ship in the chorus is not restricted and 'any student in college is welcome to join. 2 Chorus TOP ROW, Left to Right Donald Keel, Albert Lambert, Richard Hall.

In order that the Juco-eds of 1937 may meet the demands of a modern husband, Miss Esther Denton, home economics instructor, is wasting no effort to make good cooks, fine seamstresses, and conscientious homemaking artists from the raw material her students offer. In the foods class, the girls have learned prac- tical ways of preparing food that will tickle the appetites of their prospective husbands and also the art of planning, preparing, and serving meals. The elementary design class is used primarily to teach the students good color combinations and good designs. Clothing students have studied the selection and purchase of feminine wearing apparel. They learn how to select textile fabrics, how to buy econom- ically and how to plan a family budget. The girls project in the home furnishing class is built around the construction of a dream home having a dream family, furnishing the home, attractively and developing a homelike atmos- phere. N.Y.A... For the past four years, the Arkansas City Junior College has been able to secure federal aid for the students who are not otherwise financially able to attend. Formally the fund was known as the College Student Emergency Program, but this year it is part of the nation-wide National Youth Administration. There are approximately fifty-five students attending the college this year who are paying their way by stenographical work in the various offices of the different schools or by janitor or police work at games. Each of the students is paid thirty cents an hour, but the number of hours he works is determined by his needs. Besides those on N. Y. A., many of the students work at part-time jobs to pay their expenses. Some clerk in the various downtown stores, at service stations and on newspaper routes. Some of the girls do housework in exchange for their room and board, and some boys work in the res- taurants for their board. A close survey would show that on the whole, the students of Arkansas City Junior College really earn their education. 22 ASSEMBLY PROGRAMS . . . According to the custom, this year's chapel programs have been freely contributed to by tal- ented members of the student body and also en- livened by the appearances of many traveling en- tertainers and distinguished guests that have been passing through this city. Students are re- quired to attend the assemblies held each Thurs- day at eleven o'clock. General assemblies included the pep meetings, group singing, individual ap- pearances of students, and members of the Public Speaking and Music departments and addresses b y lo c al ministers. Outstanding p 1' 0 gr a m s included the Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Easter assemblies, the address by Dean E.A. Funk, the amateur contest, and the program by the junior college choir. Special assemblies are called when the dean is able to secure as guest artist some entertainer or important speaker from outside the city. It was through this method that an interesting lecture on excavations in Palestine and Africa was given by a visiting archeologist. One of the outstanding visitors of the year was Archie San Romani, Olympic track star and nephew of the head of our instrumental music department, who spoke to 2,000 students of the local school system. A third guest speaker was Miss Rose Cologne who wittily spoke to the college in February. Plans for the chapel programs were made by a committee chosen by the student council. Mem- bers this year included Gladys Cowen, first sem- ester chairman, Analee Hill, Emily Jane Yount, Willis Payton and Erle Volkland. Y.M.C.A.... Due to an insistent demand among the men students, Y. M. C. A. was instituted in the college this year with M. K. Snyder, and K. R. Galle as sponsor and advisor. Together with the Y. W. they enjoyed a party in January and have been fortunate in having prominent civic leaders as their guest speakers. Sam Maier, the president, entertained with a covered dish dinner at his home during March. About 20 boys are members of the association. Officers are Sam Maier, president, Albert Lam- bert, vice-president, Carl Utt. secretary, and Erle Volkland, student council representative. Do You Remember ?

The year 1936 found the import market in athletes brisk, but also found A. C. J. C. not in extensive buying operationsg therefore the fail- ure of Coach Dick Nolan to produce a champion- ship team could not be blamed on an inferior team, but on a team not so greatly improved by outside recruits as some others in the Kansas Junior College Conference. Authoritative observ- ers believe that any top rank Kansas juco team would be a good match for many a larger, four year institution. Needed are no excuses for the '36 Tigers. Their record of 2 wins, 2 ties and 2 losses is not to be ridiculed. Returning from last year's team were only seven letterman, while the '37 squad will have eleven A winners. Placed on the second all state team was center, Hinesg mentioned also were Owens and Galyardt, Other outstanding players were Montgomery, Chambers, Utt, Evans, Miller and Griffith who played their last year of juco football. After defeating Sterling and El Dorado, the Tigers met the touted Coffeyville Ravens playing before the largest crowd of the season. The Tig- ers held the Ravens to four downs on their one yard line and came back in the second half to completely outplay the heavier Coffeyville team with the game ending scoreless. The following week, the Tigers journeyed to Parsons for a bitterly fought game that ended 7-7. Early in the second quarter Owen took a lateral from Miller and ran eighty yards for a touchdown. He also converted for the extra point. In the second half the Cardinals came back with a frantic passing attack to tie the score. In the closing seconds of play, Montgomery took a fift- een yard pass from Chambers and ran the remain- ing forty yards for a touchdown. Due to off sides. the play was declared void. The highly rated Hutchinson Blue Dragons provided too much opposition for the Tigers in their next battle for, after a bitter fight, the game ended 14-13, in favor of the Dragons. Again in this game the Tigers had a fifty yard touchdown called back which proved to be the margin of dif- ference between the two teams. In the game following with Tonkawa, the Tigers were de- feated 12-7, due to the ineligibility of two of their ace backs. And then-Fort Scott, 20, A. C. 3, and take us away from that field of Greyhounds! PAGE 24 BASKETBALL .. . Although the 1936-37 season was less pros- perons in the win column, than the conference champs of the preceding year, it was the general opinion of coaches and sport scribes over the state that the team was par to the 36 edition of the Tigers. The poor record was due largely, perhaps, to the presence of more outstanding teams in the circuit than ever before in the history of Kansas Junior College Conference. All of the games were lost by small margins and due to the breaks of the games and an inexperienced squad, the Tigers were unable to resume their winning jaunt of the previous year. Outstanding players were Clark, Colopy, Gilli- land, Axlev. Stelfens, Dohrer and Montgomery. Other prominent men were Waldeck, Abernathy, Maier, Kessinger. Owen, Rambo, Miller, Randall, Holis and Bob Clark. Coach Dan Stark stated that with five lettermen returning, prospects are bright for a winning U37-38 edition of the Tigers. GOLF and TENNIS. . . Plans are being made for golf and tennis teams to represent the school during the spring months at surrounding tournaments. Of the golfers, it is thought Duane Crill and Donald Dohrer will tra- vel for the school and in tennis, the squad will con- tain such players as Dick Howard, George Miller, Bill Burns. Chester Stetfens, and John Burton. Tennis players among the girls include Carol- ine Someriield, Julia Shea, Mary Barkley, Dimple Johnson, Mrs. Dale Hines, Margaret Dixon,Lura Fitzgerald. June Jacobs, Martha McCall, Lucille Sharpe. Madge Hill and Arnell Wallace. PHYSICAL EDUCA TION. .. Behind the scenes of dances successfully ex- ecuted in vaiious operas and productions it might easily be found, on investigation that the hand that nianuvered it was that of Miss Edith Joyce Davis. head of the physical education department. ln addition to dancing, every type of physical exercise is covered in the department. including volley-ball, tennis, basketball, shuifleboard and nuinerous other activities. The schedule for college Includes active exercise and lecture classes and each college girl is required to take one of the two. Plans have been made and routines are now be- ing started for an athletic circus to be held in the spring in the new auditorium. Opportunity is available to the classes for rifle practice and modern dancing.

Coach Dan Stark is very optomistic about the '37 track season. With five lettermen and several capable high school performers reporting, he says there is no reason why a winning squad should not be produced. The lettermen from last year are Willie Gilliland, strong in the HHU yard and mile run: Paul Wineinger, quarter mil- er: Don Evans, hurdler and dash man: Ralph Waldeck. weight events: and Robert Randall, hizrh jumper. The newcomers from whom Stark expects the most are Cecil Grifith, husky weight handler: Dallas Wilhelm, quarter miler: Harper Owen, dash man: Robert Montgom- ery hurdler: and Norman Evans, half miler. There are sev- eral other boys reporting who have never done any track work, but these too, may prove themselves valuable addi- tions to the squad.

PAGE 27 PAGE 28 Student Council. . . The student council of the Arkansas City Junior College works as the center of Juco activities. From time to time throughout the year, the or- ganization selects the various committees ot the student body. lt is the duty of each student coun- cil member to know these people whom they ap- point and to be able to vote intelligently when one is to be chosen. Members of this governing body are selected by the class or organization which they represent. The president is elected by both the sophomore and freshman classes at the begin- ning of the year. Through the cooperation of the various representatives, the entire student body and each organization has a voice in the govern- ment of the school. This effective type of student rule has been in practice for a number of years and has proved its value through the progress of the whole school program. Kenneth Curtman is president, Ruth Knedler and Samuel Maier, representatives of the sopho- more classg Virginia Vogel and Raymond Ausmus of the freshman class, Marjorie Anne Swinney of the Y. W. C. A. , Erle Volkland of the Y. M. C. A. and Mary Barkley of the Pep Club. Assistant Dean K. R. Galle is sponsor and ad- visor of the group. Debate .... For this season the debate question was Re- solved, that Congress should be empowered to tix minimum wages and maximum hours tor in- dustry and it proved to be an ideal one, since it is at the present time an issue of national importance. Among the tournaments on the schedule for this season were the Southwestern tournament at Winlield in December, an invitational speech meet at Hutchinson and also the Phi Rho Pi tournament there the latter part of February and the district meet at St. .lohn's College in March. Junior college debaters also acted as host to teams from junior colleges at the debate insti- tute held here in November during which the neighboring cities participated in practice debates and heard helpful lectures. The local team jour- neyed to Winfield, El Dorado and Tonkawa dur- ing the season for practice meets. Those who took part in debate this year were Gladys Cowen, Helen Ward, Victor Bryant, Ever- ett Garner, Robert Giboney, Francis Sommers, Sam Maier, Luther Parman, Harold Harris and George Reynolds. Murrel K. Snyder was coach. PAGE 29 Social Functions Dotting the social calendar at irregular inter- vals are the informal functions that occur with unpredictable frequency throughout the year. These parties have taken a new trend this year. Formerly dancing was not included, but this year the officers of the two classes, working together with the help of the student body's vote of ap- proval, were able to obtain this activity for the first time in the history of the Arkansas City Junior College. This long desired attraction has not only added to the pleasure of these parties but it has also .decreased the work of the various committees and bids fair to become a tradition to which the classes of '37-'38 can proudly point as their contribution to the social life of the school. As usual, the opening reception, which was attended by a large number of the student body, headed the schedule this year, and the friend- making influence of this occasion was far-reach- ing and vitally instrumental in helping the out-of- town students feel at home. Above all others, this occasion imparts a lasting effect which tends to govern the success of the later social functions. Aside from the reception, there are three other fixed social activities which brighten the program. In April the annual Juco dinner is given. This is a joint class banquet followed by an appro- priate program and informal party. The height of social activities is reached in May when classes are dismissed for a half a day and everyone goes picnicking. This holiday features good eats, boist- erous games and all around good times of the typical outing and serves as a safety valve for the hard working students' pent-up energy. Beautiful April also marks the most formal occasion on the social calendar-the Tigerama. This occasion serves as an introduction of the Arkansas City Junior College to its prospective freshman class. Students from near-by cities also attend this affair, which features a stage per- formance by members of the student body and will be followed this year by a party. These, with several other parties throughout the year, complete the calendar. Will Etta Long was chairman of the social committee. Chaperones were members of the faculty, the Board of Edu- cation, and parents of the students.
