Dickinson State University - Prairie Smoke Yearbook (Dickinson, ND)

Text from Pages 1 - 94 of the 1941 volume:

DEDICATION TO YOU The Prairie Smoke of ’41 Is tinged with a western hue; And it is yours - - an honor won, For we dedicate it......to you. This Prairie Smoke of ’41 Holds memories old and new; Memories dear to everyone So we dedicate it......TO YOU. - - b. j. a. The Staff HOWDY! 4 Well, folks, here’s the lecord, as tee see it, - - - told in an informal, eds} imt- ern style. Plain, simple and honest, - - - that’s us. So, Howdy everybody! We hope you like your copy of WILLIAM J. KITPPEK Editor EDITOR KUPPER RAMBLES - - - If this book had an introduction or preface, this would be it: The staff of student writers have put in a lot of time and effort to bring you the 1941 Prairie Smoke. The free range produced a hard-working, free- thinking, hearty type of American pioneer, character- ized by a thousand quirks of vocabulary and manner. The staff members have chosen this western atmosphere as a background for your book. Should a yearbook be formal, or informal, de- scriptive or narrative? Whatever a book should be, this one is decidedly informal and the intent is to have the makin's flow along as a tale that is told. In short, here’s a story of the life of the folks who together make up the personnel of the college at Dickinson. The account of the doings and hopes of a half thousand of western North Dakota young men and women IS interesting and the staff members' supplication is that they have been able to bring flashes of this interest to you. Theme In Western We have tried to use a western theme. We may not know all the western lingo, but that which wo have used is authentic, for we got it from a ranch- man’s handbook of North Dakota brands and west- ern phrases. All the western scenes that you will find enlivening the book were drawn by our art editor and her associates. We hope you’ll like them. As you will see, the freshmen are the Tenderfeet. sophomores are known as Waddles, juniors as Hands, and of course, the seniors are the Top Hands. The faculty are the Bosses, Mr. Scott is the “Big Boss of the entire spread, the deans are the Foremen, and the members of organizations are the Rustlers. For the first time in the history of DSTC annuals, individual pictures of all students are being used. If yours is not to be found, don’t come to see the editor (wjk), because it isn’t his fault—it’s your very own. He tried to get you to have your picture taken, but you can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink. In other words, we tried to get away from group pictures such as some appearing in the earlier annuals because we want the people who will be looking at this book in the future to see you and be able to recognize you from your picture, rather than from your name. You will not be able to find a separate section for teachers, but will find them scattered throughout, most of them with the activi- ties with which they are commonly associated. Informal Plan The book will not follow a formal plan of presentation, but will be in chronological style, following the year’s events as closely as we could make it. For a change, most of our snaps are not captioned. In past years the captions were never good enough for some of the readers, so this year we have furnished more snaps, and we suggest that each person put his own caption on the snaps, so everyone should be happy. Another improvement in this book is the bind- ing. When you lay it down, you will notice that it stays open just where you want it. The binding and back cover are new features of the '41 year book also. We have several new sections in our '41 book, such as Student Leaders, Hairdo's, and Porten and Gals. These are devoted to outstanding students, unusual coiffures and to good pictures of some of the beautiful girls in our school. And of Russ. Your Name' In It The index is to be used if you are in a hurry to find yourself, a boss or a buddy. You may find it handy in looking for a pix of your best cowgirl friend, to see who or what she Is placed next to be- sides yourself. Now go ahead and look at the book. If you like it let us know. If you don’t like it keep it to your- self. We know there are some things wrong in it it wouldn’t be a success if it were perfect. We hope you like it. THE FIRST DAY - - - Hundreds Gather At DSTC For Annual Fall Roundup On Tuesday. September 10. 1940, a great gather- ing of tenderfeet took place near the central ranch house, commonly known as the State Teachers College, at Dickinson. The day before, the older hands had showed up to make arrangements for their winter’s provisions. But back to our tenderfeet. “Who’s that tall, earnest-looking man over by the fence?” said Irene Miller, to John Bach, who looked ns though he might know. “Oh. that man? Why, he’s the owner of this whole spread! Scott’s the name,—Charles E. Scott, they call him. Nice man to work for, I hear.” “He been here long?” “This is his second year as boss of the spread. He’s been in these parts for a good long spell, though. Came here ’way back in the ’20’s. Well, the tenderfeet were herded together in the big corral, where the bosses, directed by E. S. Hatch, arranged about bunks, chow, and entertainment. All the youngsters joined the chow line and saw many of the sights. First off. they visited the Reg- ister of Brands. Charley Bugbee, who passed on their letters of application. They found Charley plump, efficient, and anxious to keep everything on the spread in motion. CHARLES E. SCOTT President Then the tenderfeet got their stock of reading matter from Marion Gardner, cheery and proper be- hind her high counter where she keeps the stocks of books. Finally they stopped at the ranch strong-box and left part of their gold for safekeeping and some to pay part of the cost of their keep. 7 Pencil Pushers - - willingness and captivating smile appeal to students and faculty. She’s practically in- dispensable, thinks Secretary Klinefelter. ♦ ♦ ♦ AN ATTRACTIVE AD- DITION in the registrar’s office is Mildred Taylor. A standard graduate. she taught school at Inshu on the Indian reservation, as well as in a school near Richardton, and also was em- ployed at the Dickinson ex- periment station before com- ing to her present place in January. She succeeded Gen- evieve Switzer, who was un- able to resist the call of Uncle Sam, and went to Washington to take a posi- tion. (Bill Buresh, a DSTC grad, works down there, too.) Poking around in the main hall, the man with the flashbulbs found Miss Maude Klinefelter and persuaded her to pose. She is the one to whom we give our money at the beginning of each quarter, and even if we don't have the cash, she still has that smile saying welcome. She has been here longer than anyone connected with the institution and is always willing to give information or other help. CHARLES A. BUGBEE, registrar, is well-liked by all. He has a cheery Good Morn- ing and a big smile for everyone. He is a good mix- er with everybody, including the students, and shows his ability in this field especially at school parties. His duties of handling data on the per- sonnel of the school are exe- cuted with accuracy and ef- ficiency. IN THE BOOKSTORE we are met by Marion Gard- ner. who. smiling, asks what there is she can help us with, such as a three-cent stamp, a candy bar, or an additional reference book. No matter what it is. she graciously gets it. You can always rely on her during bookstore hours. As a conversational- ist, she is nearly always jolly, and some of her humorous remarks create many a laugh. ♦ QUIETNESS, e f F I- CTENC’Y, and dark eyes de- scribe the office assistant.

HOMECOMING - - - Starting with the Indian ceremonial Friday when Jay Stow and Mary Meulemans were crowned chief and princess, there was not a dull moment in Homecoming up to the end of the dance Saturday night. (Dates were November 1-2.) After the ceremonial, a snake-dance took every- body through town ending with pep speeches and cheers at the N. P. station. Saturday saw the Preamble to the Constitution parade. The alumni luncheon was at noon. Col. Theodore Roosevelt, Jr., a most popular figure, tossed out the football for the annual buttle between the Savages and the Beavers (Minot). The Colonel, here for a political speech, left New York City Friday night at 11:00 and was munching sandwiches in the DSTC cafeteria Saturday at noon. 28 TENDERFEET - - - Rooting’, Tootin' Frosh Enliven Campus Doin’s The jolliest group of rootin’, tootin’ cowhands on the whole range are we. Arriving with whoops and lassoos. we tied our old mustangs, put away our boots and saddles and generally kept things a poppin’ until the end of May. Our foreman. Ottmar. really went to town, made an excellent football record, and was all conference basketball man, whoopee! ! Hartse and Hiatt lassooed straight A’s in chemistry; John Funk made the debate squad; Eleanore Miklautsch. Mary Ripley and Helen Hoeger rounded up all A’s in their studies; Norman Ordahl and Della Moore were outstanding ranch actors; Corliss Campbell and Reinhold Spreng- er ranked among the best boxers. Outstanding range musicians include Beryl Willis. Bob Hiatt, and Leon- ard Borlaug. Other outstanding range riders are Ruth Agnew, Shirley Bratten and Jonathan Reding- ton. singers; and Virginia King and Jean William- son. cheer leaders. Our ranch is bossed by Gotthold Ottmar. fore- man, with Ardyce Zemple assisting. Minnie Liedkc takes care of the finances and Evelyn Kessler keeps the records of our activities, while Virgil Reetz. being the representative to the Publications Control Board, lets everyone know what we do or don’t do. H. E. Murphy advises us. There are more tenderfoot wranglers than all the other classes put together. There is a large representation in the ranch band, chorus, orchestra. Cue club, pep squad, and other organizations. More freshmen than any other group are to be found on the football and basketball teams. Freshmen cowpunchers on the football squad who need no introduction are: Bud Boisen, James Williams. Jake Lee. Ray Lane. Reinhold Sprenger, Fred Vollmer, Bill Chunn. Wilfred Wilson. John Kubik.

HANDS YARN SWAPPERS The Forum is organized during the fall quarter to encourage forensic activities and extemporaneous speech among college students. The Forum programs are intend- ed to promote all types of speech activities. Extemporaneous topics, poetry reading, round table dis- cussions. and outside speakers have each formed a basis for meetings. Two outstanding meetings were held, one in which Theodore Kellogg gave an address and the other which featured debate tryouts. The organization has sponsored two assembly programs. On Feb. 11 a group presented a Lincoln day program. The men's team debated with the women’s team to provide another in- teresting assembly program. They were fortunate to have an excellent chef as the president of the organization, as he has displayed his art at several meetings by serv- ing doughnuts and coffee. The head breeze of this blow-hard outfit was Russell Porten, with John Funk as assistant blower, or vice president, and Clara Pierce, secre- tary-treasurer. Dr. R. L. Lokken is the adviser. DR. R. L. LOKKEN The Doctor joined the outfit last fall, coming from Mayville. “A little too sophisticated there to quite suit me. suggests he. When his picture appeared in the paper with a dashing mustache, his classes begged him to grow one, which he did. thus qualify- ing as a member of the Whisker club. A hard worker with elegant manners and a genial disposition, Ross” gets a lot done without much fuss. 31 WOMEN'S TEAM DEB A TE The call for hands to represent the DSTC ranch in the annual debate round- ups went out to the yokels and lasses of this spread at the beginning of the winter quarter. Several volunteered and presented themselves to Boss Dr. Lokken. The Boss made arrangements for tryouts to see who could shoot straight argu- ments and lasso evidence. Three of the ranch's greats. Mrs. Robinson, Miss Rother and Mr. Pulver, were asked to select the proof busters. After a windy evening and due consideration the fol- lowing cowgirls were chosen: Evelyn Morland, Esther Kurle and Mary German. The cowboys selected to do the rodeo work were: Perry Iron-Man” Bruvold and Wallace Two-Gun” Maxie, as senior artists, and Elmer Sagebrush” Morland. Eugene Cactus” Riehl and John Pan-Handle” Funk, as junior per- formers. On February 7 and 8 the rodeo staff participated in the Red River Valley Rodeo at Concordia college. Moorhead. Minnesota. In this fray the maidens came off with a fine string of four wins while the men of the ranch garnered two wins each. Later in the year, on March 3, 4 and 5, the staff again trundled their chuck- wagons away and this time to St. Paul. Minnesota, to match skills with the cowboys and cowgirls from all over the nation, at the colleges of St. Thomas and St, Catherine. The maidens vanquished their opponents three times while the senior punchers scored four times suc- cessfully. The junior bronc busters waged winning contests twice. The en- tire staff rode herd on a street car for one day in Minneapolis and enjoyed it immensely. To finish the season the DSTC wranglers camped in Minot on March 21 and 22 to compete in the state rodeo. In this affair the junior herders tied for first place. The senior riders copped off third place and the fair ranch lasses succeeded in doing the same. Perry Iron-Man” Bruvold received second place rating in the rodeo while German rated third in the fair-sex” di- vision. One of the high-lights of this rodeo was the banquet and the party staged by the Minot ranchers for the en- joyment of all the riders of the rodeo. An assembly program and a radio discussion over KFYR were also given and then the rodeo performers packed up their gear to await the arrival of another season. MEN’S JR. TEAM MEN’S SR.

January 29-30; and an all-college dance. Highlighting the year’s social events was a silver tea at the home of Mrs. Charles E. Scott, February 8. Invitations included faculty wives and members of the women’s clubs. Valentine decorations were used. In the receiving line were: Miss Woods, Mrs. Marjorie Scott Eidem, Lucille Pintler, Mary Meule- mans. and Muriel Marklund. Marion Carlson and Mary Jane Alguire poured. Begun as a local, the sorority completed its na- tional affiliation May 16-17 when an initiation was held for charter members, newly-eligible students, and alumni members. Marion Carlson.

The main purpose of this organization is to further the development of freehand drawing among students displaying talent and interest in art. The students arrange set-ups to draw or paint, or they may paint directly from models. Occasionally there are parties, which are paid for by the collections for absences and tardinesses. This money is the only form of dues. There is a scrap book kept by the historian to which one or two of the best pieces of work arc added at each meeting. The work of the club is a part of the annual art exhibit each spring. The scrap book selections are chosen at the close of each meeting. MISS ZOE E. BEILER An Artist Completes Her Work--- Carole Henderschied acted as president until she accepted a teaching position at which time the office was taken by the vice-president, Mary Johnson. Peggy Fisher is secretary-treasurer. The members are. reading from left to right, Peggy Fisher. Virginia King. Juliette Norton, Mary Johnson. Julia Armstrong. Carole Henderschied, Rosalyn Wanner, Alice Burke. Marcia Saunders, Carol Wagy. Betty Twist, Grace Huck, and also Dorothy Lieutz and Vernon Summers. The beautiful paintings found here and there about the college and about town, are, in consider- able numbers, the work of Miss Beiler. artist and teacher. Her exceptional ability has been widely recognized. She has been the inspiration of many students. BOSSES MUSIC 36 HARRY DRAPER ORGANIZATIONS - - - ENSEMBLE Paul Brown, President. Virginia King, Secretary. CHORUS— Muriel Marklund, President. Josephine Klein, Secretary. BAND- Donovan Benzie, President. Boh Hiatt, Secretary. ACTIVITIES ■ - - Approximately 70 members of the music groups, including the orchestra or ensemble, band and chorus, provided the musical entertainment for our home on the range under the excellent direction of Prof. Harry H. Draper, music foreman. During recent months Harry Draper, violinist, has added flying to his stock of skills. He often whistles a few bars of Beethoven as he does a verti- cal bank in his plane, and goes through the motions of a power turn as he directs the college ensemble or band. The music groups have been featured on assem- bly programs and have provided entertainment for various out-of-school activities and neighboring ranches, including the Rotarian dinner in honor of Governor John Moses; a teachers meeting at Bel- field; an evening program for the Lions club; the annual Christmas program; and the Schoolmen’s club banquet at South Hall. Cowboys and girls gathered to form a pep band, which played for all the home football and basket- ball games, spurring the Savages to victory. Crowning event for the ensemble and chorus is the annual spring trip to Bismarck, when they en- tertain the entire Northwest over KFYR. MISS LELAND In Miss Hildur Leland we find a piano teacher de luxe, if that’s the proper musical term. An artist on the ivories herself, she transmits her knowledge of the well-tempered clavichord to her private and class piano students. She’s had thorough training and wide experience.

Most of the students live in near- by communities which have incomplete or no high school opportunities. While most of the students are of normal high school age. many of more mature years have found it pleasant and practicable to com- plete their education here.

ACTIVITIES - - - Athletics, Dnimatics and Music Featured in DSTC’s Model High Model High has a fine program of extra-curricu- lar activities. Club meetings, assemblies, athletic events, banquets and parties, along with plays and musical programs, make pleasant the out-of-class portion of school life. ♦ ATHLETICS is represented by the boys’ basket- ball squad, by the GAA and by sports events oc- curring in physical education classes. The Model basketeers, coached by Bill Leder, had a most inter- esting season, playing a full schedule of conference games. They learned a lot about basketball, even though their record of wins wasn’t very impressive. The score-book has been lost,” the Prairie Smoke reporter was told when he tried to unearth some statistical data on the subject. THE GIRLS' ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION, GAA for short, may be joined by any high school girl. DIRECTORS Each member may earn a letter by participating in sports. The major indoor sports are: hitpin base- ball and basketball. Minor sports include hiking, bicycle-riding, horseback-riding, skating, volley ball, tennis, tumbling and roller-skating. One hundred points are required for a small letter and five hun- dred for a large letter. Social events have included a dance, picnic and a theatre party. Officers: President. Pauline Roshau: vice-presi- dent. Shirley Johnson: secretary. Antoinette Krush: treasurer, Alice Sadowsky. When Shirley Johnson graduated. Margaret Peterson was elected to her position. THE PEP SQUAD made up the peppier mem- bers of the high school, has charge of the public exhibition of Model High pep at basketball games. Usually, before a game, one or more pepfests acquaint all the students with the yells and in gen- eral stir up enthusiasm.

At a Christmas program the chorus sang a number; a double octet from the chorus pre- sented a second song; while all members joined with the college chorus in a combined arrangement. At the May festival the chorus sang ‘ Asleep in Jesus,” and the “Cherubim Song;” and the boys of- fered “Stout-hearted Men.” ♦ THE SCIENCE CLUB lists 23 members, and is under the supervision of Iver Lund and Joe Krank. An interesting program featured reports by members on the recognition and habits of snakes. ♦ ♦ � MRS. MARTHA E. BRATCHER, an instructor with a quiet culture and charming personality which is extended to all who come in contact with her. is known for her cooperation with students and faculty. She is respected by all, and her friendly attitude has won many friends. THE DRAMATIC CLUB held meetings twice a month, with programs of pantomime, play reviews, and short plays, which stimulated interest and ap- preciation. Two plays were staged in a special assembly. Jan. 31: The first, “Ambition,” was coached by Jean Par- cells. The cast of characters: Owen, D. A.—Alfred Kovash. Dorothy, his wife Vivian Klonecky. Williams, an old family servant Martin Kamstra.

STUDENT PUBLICATIONS ENJOY EVENTFUL YEAR - - - The Slope Teacher and the Prairie Smoke try to record the doings of DSTC for the information and enjoyment of all concerned. The only way to please the student body of any college is to let them express themselves individually or through their organizations. The control board gives them this right by presiding over the student publications of the college, states Frank Wherley, president of the board. Personnel of the board, one member elected from each college class and one from the high school, in addition to Tophand Wherley, include: Russell Porten. secretary-treasurer; Virgil Reetz, Dean Bartholomew and Martin Kamstra. The board adopted a constitution providing for selection of the personnel of publications and other problems pertaining to their management. THE PRAIRIE SMOKE The yearbook, a pictorial history of the affairs and personnel of DSTC, was first published in 1923. The words Prairie Smoke were written in script among grey smoke curls over a scene on the plains, imprinted on a blue manila cover. Purposes, activi- ties and personnel of the “annual are evident throughout this volume. THE SLOPE TEACHER The Slope Teacher aims to bring students, teach- ers and alumni into more informed relationship with the affairs of the college. Established December. 1924, The Dickinson Teacher was changed to The Slope Teacher in 1925. It was published five times a quarter until three years ago since when it has been issued ten times a quarter. This year the tabloid size is issued regu- larly. In 1939 and 1940 a smaller size was printed frequently, with a larger size on special occasions. This is the third year the Slope Teacher has rated at the top with other similar college publica- tions in North Dakota, as judged by the Associated Collegiate Press. The Slope Teacher also is a mem- ber of the North Dakota Intercollegiate Press asso- ciation. MANY ASSIST Staff members on the paper are numerous and the personnel changes frequently. All do valuable service, though the amount and quality of their con- tributions naturally varies. Vivacious Mary German and dimpled Esther Kurle have been coeditors this year. The clever linoleum cuts have been by Rosa- lyn Wanner. The concise headlines have been mostly by Dean Bartholomew. The colm on sports has been by Bob Hiatt while the sports stories have been by Jacob Lee, Anton Focht, Shirley Reetz and Gene Riehl. The “raving reporter, Mary O’Brien, has kept students marvelling at the secrets disclosed. Made- line McCann has been business manager. June Wills, writer of straight or feature stor- ies, has helped do everything on the paper except write poetry. While the coeditors have been flouncing about elsewhere, various workers have acted as editors, as Dean Bartholomew, June Wills and Shirley Reetz. The foundation of a paper is a corps of smart, go-getter reporters and the ST has had them this year. Thanks to them the sheet has come out full of hot news and punchy features. In addition to the pictured personnel on the staffs, shown elsewhere, many others do valuable work on the paper. Examples are: President Scott. Miss Klinefelter, Miss Gardner, and all members of the spring quarter class in journalism. VOLUNTARY SERVICE Sometimes seemingly forgotten is the fact that all of the work on publications is done voluntarily by students, without credit in the registrar’s office, and as an extra obligation. This work is of great value to the institution, and on the part of the stu- dent reporter represents a gift of service to the college as well as an opportunity to learn more about the problems of publications. 01 0H t Top: Holt, Nelson.

They are members of Company K. 104th Infantry. N. D. National Guard, who passed all tests and arrived at Camp Claiborne, La., where they train for a year (at least). Lieut. Paul Ebeltoft, who rounded up the boys for the picture the day before they left, forgot to get in the view. If all the former students of DSTC in Co. K are counted, there are in fact about 57 men not in the picture. Those in the picture were, of course, those enrolled during the winter quarter. Naturally everyone on the campus is mighty proud of the warriors and wishes them all the fine things they deserve. We’ll be seeing them next winter when they return to finish their courses here, —we hope! College memories are of many things, but, the most fleeting though enjoyable are of parties. Two parties marked the first week of school: a freshmen party, Sept. 9, with the Hardings directing the fun; and the all-college mixer Sept. 13. The Homecoming dance. Nov. 1, for alumni, students and friends, was attended by people far and near. Mrs. H. G. Zabel came the greatest distance, from Hildebrand, Oregon. The junior class spon- sored a masquerade Oct. 23. when Professor Murphy won first prize. A swing-out-the-old and swing-in- the-new-quarter was the dance Nov. 29 by the Social Relations club. A dance for the National Guard. Feb. 11. saw 120 guardsmen and 200 students present. Highlights were numbers by the men’s and women’s quartets, and speeches and responses by President Scott, Cliff Sehmickrath, Lieut. Dale Flegel, Major Frank Richards, and Brig. Gen. LeRoy Baird. Valentine’s day gave the coeds an opportunity to be hostesses at the South Hall formal Feb. 15. The unexpected marriage of Leona Gardner, freshman (she wrote that during Christmas vaca- tion she “had been unexpectedly married and won’t be back’’), really gave our old place the sentimental setting. By the looks of engagements.—mainly Jo Klein, Palmer. Nelson he was married on April 12), Mitten. Wherley, and of course, Willie, ’aint it the truth. Willie? tWe do hope there’s no mistake in this). PILGRIM FELLOWSHIP 02 Student Pilgrim Fellowship - - • In the stillness of the evening When the sun’s last rays have fled. Do you ever hear the singing. Or a sweet prayer that’s said? It’s the sound of youth rejoicing In this western land of ours; Their love for God they’re voicing In the peaceful evening hours. Grace Williams. The Student Pilgrim Fellowship. Congregational church, was organized in September. 1940, with the following charter members: Garfield Miller. Earl Schafer. Myrtle Elmquist. Clara Pierce. Eunice Pierce. Grace Williams, and Virgil Reetz. A con- stitution was adopted and these officers elected: Pilgrim Fellowship adviser. Mrs. Leroy Moomaw: general chairman. Rev. Alfred Neiderhelman; presi- dent. Grace Williams; vice-president. Earl Schafer; and secretary-treasurer. Clara Pierce. In October the group participated in the annual Youth Rally of fellowships from the Slope area, at Mott. On March 23 they joined the junior group of high school students in presenting the Sunday morn- ing church service. The Luther League - - - All Lutheran students automatically are mem- bers of the Student Luther League. They now have 169 members. The purpose is to provide opportun- ity for Christian fellowship. Each month one devo- tional and one social is held. The Pocket Testament movement is one of the major activities of the Luther League. Two im- portant annual events are the Pocket Testament banquet and the spring fireside meeting. The officers are elected bi-annually. The offic- ers: president. Vera Beck; vice-president. Ann Brademeyer; secretary. Shirley Reetz; treasurer. Gwendolyn Bell; and Pocket Testament secretary is Lillian Hlntz. .MISS HENDRICKSON—She insists that she is Amanda E.. with particular emphasis on that “E. She is an ardent supporter of young people’s activi- ties. She demands that students be painstaking in their work, for she realizes fully the necessity for such thoroughness. STUDENT LUTHER LEAGUE 63 Organizations The Newman Club - - The Newman Club includes all students of Catholic faith, being the largest religious group on the spread. It has a prideful record for promoting good times through social gatherings, as well as seri- ous moments through programs in club meetings, in public DSTC assemblies, and in regular church activities and services. Officers: president, Donald Downey: vice-president, Josephine Klein: secretary, Juanita Eastman; treasurer, Peter Degel; adviser, John R. Wiehoff. NEWMAN CLUB GIRLS The College has two women’s dormitories. South Hall, housing 125. and Stickney Hall, accommodating 52. guests. Other women students live in Dickinson. • • • SOUTH HAM. contributes a great deal to the social life of the campus by giving dinners, break- fasts. receptions, teas, and parties for such organi- zations as the press club, debaters, seniors, faculty members, business men, schoolmasters club, and parents. Under the supervision of the Women’s league, an informal tea and a formal mother-daugh- ter banquet are held each year. The Valentine tea is another outstanding party. Other informal dinner parties are given at Hallowe’en. Thanksgiving. Christmas, and Easter. Officers include the dean of women. Miss Woods; the matron. Mrs. Jessie Thomas; the president of the hall council. Mary Meulemans; along with other council members. Elsie Fenske. Josephine Klein. Lucille Pintler, and Evelyn Morland. • • • MRS. THOMAS, matron, has a pieasing person- ality and complete understanding of young women, which naturally makes her a friend to all the girls. Formerly registrar, she is well-known and well-liked. STICKNEY HALL, has been newly decorated within and without, and is devoted to caring for the needs of women who prefer to do light housekeeping. The hall is the center of a great deal of fine social life, featured this year by parties at Thanks- giving. Christmas, Valentine day. Easter, as well as by several birthday celebrations. Officers include Eunice Pierce, president; Ruth Knudsvig, vice-president; Doris Mae Knudson, sec- retary; and Patricia La Meres, treasurer. Miss Woods has general supervision of the hall. MRS. ELLEN OLSON, matron, has a sympa- thetic understanding of the girls and their problems, and keeps life in the hall moving along pleasantly and efficiently. • DOWNTOWN GIRLS, while having no official organization this year, do comprise one unit of the Women’s league scholarship drive. They live in Dickinson, many in cither their own or relatives’ homes. Some do light housekeeping. They are a most important group and cooperate in all the social and other activities of the campus. DOWNTOWN GIRLS 65 MISS PELAGIA KOS.MOSKI, the practice teach- ers’ model! Helpfully improving on their daily teaching methods and giving them assistance in their various problems, she goes about her daily tasks in an efficient manner, extending that effic- iency to all who come in contact with her. The walks on the way down to Central are called “Kozzy's” sidewalks because she travels them so frequently. MISS ETHEL Mt’GGLI is very keen, open- hearted, sympathetic, and observant in her teaching, as well as in her other contacts. An example of the perfect classroom teacher, she fulfills various “out- side” obligations with precision and without fanfare. If it were not for the danger of starting a campus furore, it could be said that she’s the best-dressed woman on the campus. • LEILA G. WOODS, dean of women, has a fine personality and adjusts herself to situations amic- ably. Generous and considerate, her chief duties are to advise college women and manage the dormitories, although she occasionally uses her mathematical skills in teaching geometry and college math. • MKS. HAKVE It. POBINSON, an inspiring teacher and true friend, is worthy of the highest tribute that can be paid. Her accomplishments as an instructor in English and speech are further com- plemented by a perfect understanding of the modern student. MISS MATILDA STOXEN is a strict disciplina- rian. but is very helpful to inquiring, bewildered students. She trains her library assistants to be- come experts in the technique of library science. SOUTH CTTn vi?v SOCIAL RELATIONS CLUB 66 Social Relations Club - - - Last fall the Farmers Union college local changed to the Social Relations club, designed to sponsor social activities. November 29 an all-college dance was given. President is William Hintz; vice-president, William Leder; and secretary-treasurer, Alice Peter- son. Prof. H. E. Murphy is adviser. HAROLD E. MURPHY, the students' friend! From the freshmen to the seniors, students know him well and like his friendly ways. He takes a genuine interest in every activity of the College. His sympathetic understanding goes a long way toward making his science classes as easy as possible for maximum achievement. His students say. He cer- tainly knows his science.” • The Modern Language Club - - - The club is open to any college student, seeks to stimulate interest and appreciation in foreign lands, peoples, languages, customs, and events. Activities include the learning of games, songs, and customs of France and Germany; lectures on foreign languages; and dramatization of skits in French and German. Mary Jane Alguire is president; Mary Ripley, vice- president; William Hintz, secretary-treasurer; and Prof. M. H. Fayer, adviser. MISCHA PAYER Highlights included the annual dinner, when Doctor Lokken exploded The Aryan Myth. and the annual informal soiree' of all French and German students at the home of Professor and Mrs. Fayer. � PROF. M. H. PAYER'S twinkling eyes and broad gestures make his classes in modern lan- guages and literature enjoyable. The latest faculty victim of Cupid, he and his bride are still in the honeymoon happiness stage. Speaking six tongues fluently, he is able to greet any student in his own language. In class he often illustrates the lesson by telling stories of European customs. He is sympathetic, though not especially so with oversleepers who come late to his eight o’clocks. 67 PAl'L M. TINSLEY The International Relations Club--- This club brings into the limelight problems that concern the United States in world affairs. The open forum style of meeting is used. A member of a national organization, the local club has an excellent library on current affairs, se- cured through a national committee headed by Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler. Officers: Frank Wherley, president: Eugene Riehl, vice-president; and Evelyn Morland, secre- tary-treasurer. Adviser is Professor Tinsley. ♦ • PROF. I . .M. TINSLEY is concerned with social problems and their possible solutions. He’s a tall. Southern-type of gentleman, with a Missouri accent. His students recognize in him a true scholar. Com- monly serious-faced, he has a delightful sense of humor. INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS CLUB I r 8 STUDENT FLYERS STUDENT FLYING - - - In June, 1940, the Federal government author- ized DSTC to offer a course in flying. H. J. Wien- bergen was appointed co-ordinator and John Worth, flight contractor. Three units have finished and a fourth is in progress. Requirements include one year’s college credit, and a physical examination. Age limits are 21-26, in- clusive, though permission of parents may stretch the lower limits below 21. Two years of college work are required for enrolees not in school. Dual and solo flight instruction of 35 hours duration, and 72 hours of ground work are required. The non-flight teaching is done by Mr. Murphy in meteorology; by Mr. Woodward, in navigation; and by Mr. Wienbergen, in rules and regulations. John Worth. George Krug, and Ray Hanson do the air instruction. ♦ FLIGHT INSTRUCTOR John Worth may be a barnstorming aviator to some, but he knows his air-boats upside-down and inside-out. As flight con- tractor and instructor for the local CAA units, he has trained scores of students, qualifying for a private pilot’s license. Geography Club Officers: Jewell, Peterson, Schmidt GEOGRAPHY CLUB - - - The club includes all students who “take” geography. Activities have included a field trip last fall and a picnic in the White Butte Badlands. At an evening meeting six student travelers gave short resumes of their experiences while working or traveling in remote places in America. An annual assembly program is a feature. Lyle Jewell is president; Peter Schmidt, vice- president; Alice Peterson, secretary-treasurer, and Dr. A. C. Selke, adviser. Room 301, class, geography; time, about 9:20; topic, Why the Soils of the U. S. are the Color of the Girls’ Sweaters.” Oh yes, the teacher,—DR. A. C.

PULVER HANDS ARE HAPPY - - - Tophand Narum Says Year Has Been Good By Orville Narum, Top Hand The ranch top hands have had a successful year under the guidance of Head Boss Iver Grindstuen, and have been very active around the old ranch house. Our annual fall round-up, or homecoming of the hands, was led by Chief Jay Stow and Princess Mary Meulemans. How could our pigskin-carriers have had such a successful season without the four horsemen— Dolyniuk, Nelson. Thomas, and Leder? Initiation of all tenderfeet took place in the big corral, when Nelson and Leder, whip in hand, put the boys through their paces. A delicious ration followed, passed out by the chuck-wagon cook, Bill PAUL KRANK is rural super- visor at Ash Coulee school. Hintz. CAMPFIRE DOINGS 71 Life on the range would have been dull without plays directed by Oderman, Jewell, and Owen, sing- ing by Meulemans’ Coeds and Bach’s quarter about the evening campfire. Now and then a heated dis- cussion arose about international relations, led by Wherley, or possibly a debate between Maxie and Schmickrath. On Saturday nights, parties, well-planned by Schmickrath and Hintz, were held at the bunkhouse. Furniture construction and corral repair was at- tended to by the architect, Howard. Chemicals needed for branding or cleaning our shooting irons were supplied by Launer. A ranch organization in which a great many cowboys took part was the Phi Sigma Pi. with Lund acting as the leading herdsman. • • WHO’S WHO Kupper, Meulemans. Maxie, Nel- son, Stow, and Scott were selected as top hands, or “Who’s Who in Cowboy-Land.” Nightwatch was more or less left to the discretion of the guardsmen Fisher, Dolyniuk, Jewell, and Stow, who because of their patriotic Spirit of '76 dropped all duties at the ranch to give their services to the national defense. MATILDA STOXEN Last, but by no means least, this ranch album, in which we’ll all enjoy reminiscing in years to come, was the especial charge of Willie Kupper. So we wave farewell to the old ranch house, ride out onto the plains, and scatter to become head foremen of our own ranches, the cherished hope and ambition of all cowboys and cowgirls. We leave our extra spare change to help finance a public address system for the Big Room, in memory of the '41 cow- hands, wishing all future ranch hands health, hap- piness. and success. • LeROY G. PULVER is strictly a family man. who can’t start a day of debits and credits without a good hearty breakfast. One can see by visiting his class why he needs so many calories. He works his students into a frenzy with his streamlined cheer- leading. For relaxation, nothing pleases him more than a juicy income report. LOLA CARPENTER THE HANDS - - - The junior class, made up of 28 hands, now has four with Company K in Camp Claiborne. Louisiana: Gordon Holt, James Jewell, Curte Wagner, and Paul Ebeltoft. Since the hands entertain the top hands annu- ally at a prom, the hands engaged in several finan- cial enterprises, including a masquerade. October 26, best party in years,”; and the sale of DSTC balloons at Homecoming. As suggested, the junior-senior prom highlight- ed the social activities promoted by the entertain- ing juniors. Officers: Mary Jane Alguire, president; Lucille Pintler. vice-president; Paul Brown, secretary-treas- urer; and Miss Muggli, adviser. GOLDA SCHIERMEISTER Women’s League Men’s Union Men on the spread belong to the Men’s Union and the women to the Women’s League. To promote coopera- tion, develop good fellowship, and to induce high ideals of character and social standards among the students are the purposes of these organizations. • • WOMEN'S LEAGUE OFFICERS are: Evelyn Morland. president: Jean Parcells, vice-president: Lillian Hintz, secretary; and Virginia Scott, treasurer. Dean Woods and Mrs. Robinson are advisers. Friendship, purity and loyalty, symbolized by red. white and blue, are the pillars upon which the League is built. Each fall the League holds an initiation for new women students. The spring tea for girls' mothers and friends; and a mother-daughter banquet are important social events. THE .MEN’S UNION, each fall, conducts a thorough initiation for new members. It is designed to bring the relationship between the upper and lower classmates more closely together. In fact, one criticism by the fresh- men is that the contacts are sometimes too close and sudden. Officers: Elmer Nelson, president; William Leder, vice- president; and William Hintz, secretary-treasurer. i DEAN WOODWARD MEET THE MEN’S DEAN. tall, slim, very pleasant, and busi- ness like, it’s C. L. Woodward. Assembly excuses, guest-permits, re-instatements, and such are his stock in trade. Besides deaning, he teaches physics and some edu- cation. does a spot of assisting the coach, and acts in the Prairie Theatre. i THE PEP CLUB 74 Organized in 1939, the Pep club began its active work this year before the football season began. All students are eligible to join but must attend seventy-five percent of the meetings to earn a club emblem. The cheerleaders are chosen by a committee of three faculty members and are always taken from the club. Besides performing at every football and basket- ball game, the club, for the first time, attended the Minot Homecoming game. To raise money for emblems, several girls sold candy at the Mott-Beach conference game and our Homecoming game. They also sponsored a sweater dance after the Bottineau basketball game. Officers are: Kathryn Ordahl, president; Gwen Bell, vice-president; Lillian Zarth, secretary; and Jean Williamson, treasurer. Cheerleaders are Kathryn Ordahl, Virginia King, and Brigetta Beyl. When Brigetta quit school, Jean Williamson replaced her. 75 STUDENTS PICK LEADERS ■ - - “Best” in Various “Fields” are Named Among the cow-punchers are certain hands who outshine the rest. During the year these were selected by their fellow-workers on the ranch. The most efficient typist, chosen by Instructor Carpenter, is Mary Ripley. The most popular man, picked by the Women’s League, is Russell Porten. while Evelyn Morland (collusion?) was named by the Men’s Union. WHO’S WHO WHO’S WHO - - - Peggy Fisher was picked by the Sketch club as the best artist, while Shirley Reetz was said to be tops in athletics among the women, being chosen by the WAA. The D club said all their members were superlative. Registrar Bugbee named Mary Meulemans and Wallace D. Maxie as the leading scholars. This competition was limited to seniors who had been in residence at least one year. Average grades for the student’s entire DSTC career were calculated. The Model high school named Thomas Knopik and Pauline Roshau as their representative students. The Forum said that Mary and Perry lead the field as debaters. (That’s Mary German and Perry Bru- vold, of course.) WHO’S WHO-Nine students were chosen as representatives from DSTC to be included in Who’s Who Among Students in American Universi- ties and Colleges,” an annual publication. Wallace Maxie, Mary Jane Alguire. Jay Stow, Mary Meulemans, Elmer Nelson, Evelyn Morland, William Kupper, Mary German, and Marjorie Scott Eidem were the students recommended by the faculty. All are seniors except Evelyn Morland, Mary Jane Alguire. and Mary German, juniors. Their biographies will appear in the national year- book. • Musicians, named by Music department mem- bers. included Bernard Weinreich, singer; Donovan Benzie, director; Robert Hiatt, trombone; Mary Meulemans, accompanist; Mary Jane Alguire, pianist; Leonard Borlaug, trumpet; Beryl Willis, violin; and Richard Fisher, clarinet. Even whisker-growing ability was recognized, with Fred Lcder taking the blue ribbon. He was selected by an applause-meter which registered the choice of the entire student assembly. Dancing skills were evaluated by a commission appointed by the Student Life committee and this group selected Mary Rasmussen and Hollis Swett for superior accomplishments in grace and move- ment on the ballroom floor. ROY L. CO VILLE, the quiet person in charge of industrial arts, is well-liked by the students who know him because he is patient with them. He is a friend to everyone. His sober face is just a mask of his true presonality. Mr. Coville teache3 all phases of industrial arts, from mechanical drawing to toy-making and carpentry. PROF. ERWIN HATCH is the very inspir- ing character, who when walking down the hall has a pleasant smile and a greeting for everybody. He is well-liked, has a splendid personality, and has been with this institution for many years, preceding Mr. Woodward as dean of men. High place of all was given to the president of the senior class, Orville Narum, who was chosen as “the one thought most likely to make the greatest success following graduation.” ERWIN S. HATCH ROY L. COVILLE DRAMATICS HARRIET ROTHER i Tumbling • Needlework - - - The Sew and So club, meeting bi- weekly, was organized to provide a social hour for Stiekney Hall girls and to provide an opportunity for learning new helpful sewing hints. The girls take turns in demonstrating differ- ent stitches. Simple refreshments are served at each meeting by vari- ous members. Officers are: president, Evelyn Kaelberer; vice-president, Ruth Knudsvig; secretary-treasurer, Marion Carlson; and adviser. Mrs. E. Y. Olson. A girls' tumbling team, organized and directed by Ileene Fairchild, began practice at the beginning of the winter quarter and on March 5 participated in an assembly program. Their program consisted of exhibitions of the camel walk, double somersaults, cartwheels, pullovers, long and short dives, a com- bination stunt of leap frog, half turn and back, hand balance pullover, neck lift and forward and back- ward somersaults. The members are Alice Larson. Clarice Texley, Shirley Reetz. Betty Bruvold, Luann Wasem, Mar- cella Hanson. Golda Schiermeister, Hattie Tiegs, Helen Duletskl. Shirla Aus, Helen Hoeger, Dorothy Peterson and Dorothy Langendorff. Tumbling was new to them all with the excep- tion of two. Miss Fairchild is a sophomore in Model High school. The futuristic picture is intended to suggest one of the members' routines in which some members lie on the floor while others dive over them. The Nurse - - - All the aches and pains of DSTC students are thrust upon Miss Golda Schiermeister, college nurse, for treatment. Everyone’s cold is hers, and any groans emitting from Room 112 are, in all in- justice, blamed upon the able R. N. Miss Schiermeister has many varied interests. At 7 a. m. you will probably find her at the flying field in dark green jodpurs, and during the rest of the day in her uniform. She also delves among the beakers and flasks in the chemistry laboratory and takes tumbling. i D CLUB 78 ■ v First Row: Norman O’Bryan, Leo Anderson. Don Downey.

The president and many active members were lost to DSTC for at least a year when the National Guard took them to Louisiana in February. Coach H. J. Wienbergen is adviser. The outstanding activity was the sponsoring of the district Class B high school basketball tourna- ment. The Savages played seventeen basketball games, and won ten. The only home game lost was to Minot. Five out of eight conference games won brought the cagers third place in the conference. Ottmar, lead- ing the team with 152 points, was named all-confer- ence center, while Holt received honorable mention.

Each quarter the WAA sponsors one major social and athletic event. In the fall quarter the girls went on a paperbag hike to Bagdad. Major sports of the fall quarter were tennis, plays, and games. The winter quarter witnessed a big barn dance given Dec. 13, and intra-mural basketball games. Minor activities included hiking, kittenball, baseball, volley ball, deck tennis, clogging and ping- pong. Leithold, top; Moore. Hintz, W. Leder. Lane, Maus, Sprenger, Haag. F. Leder, R. Skinner.

In two years, it is possible for a girl to earn 600 points, enough for a large letter. Miss Connoran is adviser. Officers are: Esther Kurle, president; Lilly Bakke. secretary; Betty Bru- vold, treasurer; Norma Gates, sports manager; Ruth Smith, social leader.

She gains the respect of her students by her brisk actions and conversation. In dealing with daily situations, she looks for the amus- ing side, and is invariably ready with a smile when needed. As the head of the physical education depart- ment for women, she Is capable and helpful. 81 This fine group is made up of: Gross. Rhinehard, Oster, Mack. Ness. Kalberer. Milstein. and Stroming. Mr. Stroming completed his work for the standard in the fall quarter, and while doing this, got himself elected county superintendent of Dunn county in the elections, and also endeared himself to the staff by being the first purchaser of a 1941 yearbook. The others in the picture entered at the beginning of the spring quarter and were kind enough to furnish us with their pictures. DIRT AND STEAM - ■ - Both Are Needed to Keep DSTC Rolling If the college buildings are kept warm, some- one must shovel the lignite; and if the rooms are to be clean, someone must push the broom. ALBERT SCHWARTZ is the man who. among other things, is responsible for removing the dirt that the students drag in. He usually goes about his work in a jovial, carefree manner, has a cheery greeting for everyone he meets, and is highly re- garded by the boys who work with him. “We’ll take care of it.” is the answer he custom- arily gives to NYA students who cannot do their work on a certain day because of some other more pressing activity. His hobbies are leatherwork and handcarving, and he is quite expert with handicraft. In all things, Mr. Schwartz leans toward the practical side of life. JOHN SCHNEIDER, assistant janitor, does more thinking than talking. On the campus in time to unfurl Old Glory early in the morning, he stays until the job is done, which on many nights isn’t until everyone leaves the building after a double- header basketball game or some other event. He’s the fifth wheel on the DSTC wagon, and performs his duties with pleasure. • • NELS ORDAHL. the tall, blonde engineer, keeps the steam pushing through the pipes at DSTC. He is obliging, prompt, and good-natured. He works hard to keep the wheels moving efficiently, and ex- pects the same type of responsibility of students working for him. Quiet and reserved, his greatest interests are in the activities of his family and the school. • MATH KELLER is one of the employees who perform behind the scenes. If you are interested in who he is or what he does, go down to the power- house and ask to see the assistant engineer. Then too. notice the landscaping around the power plant for which he is responsible.
