REVIEW OF THE TERM DSTC has changed its program to correspond with the national war effort and has on its camp- us a Navy V-12 Unit. Last July the first con- tingent of Navy V-12ers appeared at DSTC and the campus has become a Navy training center. South Hall, originally a girls’ dormitory, has been transformed into the “Ship.” Because of the shortage of civilian students and the necessity for close co-operation between the two groups, classes and all school activities have been com- bined with the Navy setup. Student government has again been installed on the campus. In order to make for co-operation and efficient management, the constitution stip- ulates that offices be divided between civilians and sailors. Serving as the school’s representa- tives on the Student Council are President, “Bam- bi” Harms; Vice President pro tern., Joe Kmiec; Commissioner of Social Affairs, Louise Zander; Commissioner of Publications, Charlotte Parker; Commissioner of Athletics, Wade Haggard; Sec- retary, Dacotah Swett. The first momentous undertaking of the Stu- dent Council was the inauguration of a Student Union room. Commonly known as the Lounge, this room, located in the Cafeteria, is equipped with davenports, easy chairs, footstools, tables, and a nickelodeon. Dramatics has played an important role in the activities on the campus. The most active group, known as the Cue Club, is responsible for all the play productions. A classic comedy pro- duction, “She Stoops to Conquer,” directed by Miss Nellie Bobp, was produced on April 13 and 14. The play was staged in pent-house style and all costumes were authentic reproductions. The cast included Arthur Christoferson, Helen Ras- mussen, Ronald Sockolov, Robert Porter, Floyd St. Clair, Esther Selke, Mary Evelyn Groger, and David Sweetman. The second play of the term is a late Broad- way production, “Junior Miss.” Those selected for the roles included Robert Smart, Dorothy Hein, Marjorie Kronsnable, Bob Harms, David Sweetman and Dacotah Swett. Gamma Xi chapter of Alpha Psi Omega, national honorary dramatic fraternity, held an initiation on May 21 at the home of Mrs. Harding. Those installed into the organization were Esther Selke, Floyd St. Clair, Martha Kudrna, Virginia King, Dacotah Swett, Arthur Christoferson, Ronald Sockolov, and Miss Helen Rassmussen. Two programs were presented by the Music Department. The first program, on April 3, pre- sented Miss Lois Laveme Schnoor, soprano, as- sisted by Charlotte Parker, pianist; Patsy Pul- ver; and the College Chorus with Virginia King as accompianist. The second attraction was a music recital on the fourth of May featuring Virginia King as pianist, soloist, and violinist. The Slope Teacher, college newspaper, is be- ing edited by the following staff: Editor-in-Chief, George Caulfield; Assistant Editor, Esther Selke; Business Manager, Norman Ambrose; Sports Editor, Wade Haggard; Feature Editor, Betty Law; Copy Editor, Tom Baker; College Adviser, Dr. Gladys Ekeberg; High School Adviser, Mrs. Nell Robinson. Various religious organizations on the camp- us have contributed their part in the school’s ac- tivities. On March 19, Newman Club, Catholic group, attended church in a body and breakfasted together afterwards. Luther League meetings and social gatherings have been held monthly. A new organization, the Religious Council, head- ed by Donald Kirkbride, has been instituted to integrate religion with campus life and to make for greater understanding between the many and varied religious sects. Aside from their regular monthly meetings and programs the Women’s League sponsored their second bam dance; said dance pi'oved to be even more successful than the first. Senior Day stands out as one of the most successful days of the term. The 250 visiting high school seniors from the Slope area were entertained with tours of the building and an all-school program consisting of talks by Presi- dent Scott and Lt. Bradley, an exhibition of the square dance and tumbling, and music by the college orchestra. The afternoon’s entertainment consisted of a Navy Revue, free movie, lunch, and a Sunlight Hop with music by the Navy Band. Beta Eta chapter of Alpha Sigma Alpha, national honorary sorority, initiated Virginia Roberts and Cherry Schafner during a formal initiation held on May 8. Officers for this year were President, Virginia King; Vice-President, Charlotte Parker; Secretary, Georgene Tillquist; Chaplain, Gayle Chappell; Registrar, Marjorie Talkington; Treasurer, Ruby Strand; and Editor, Esther Selke. The new officers for the ensuing year are President, Charlotte Parker; Vice Presi- dent, Georgene Tillquist; Secretary, Ruby Strand; Chaplain, Marjorie Talkington; Registrar, Esther Selke; Treasurer, Marjorie Kronsnable; and Edi- tor, Gayle Chappell. And so another term passes, leaving its im- print on the pages of the past, and all eyes are focused on the future.
