N I MUNJOR I Located six miles southeast of Hays, Munjor is the closest of the original Volga-German settlements to Hays. Originally named Obermunjour, the town’s name was changed through the years after frequent difficulties with the local post office. Early beginnings of the settlement were marked by land disputes concerning a local corporation which divided the town into two factions. Today about 500 people reside in or near Munjor. Oktoberfest-goers are familier with Munjor ' s tradition for making tasty Bratwurst and Bierwurst (German sausage). V PFEIFER The Holy Cross Church in Pfeifer is a striking example of Gothic architecture. The church was completed in 1918. Pfeifer, located approximately 14 miles southeast of Hays, has a population of 80-90 residents. Bierocks (a meat-filled roll) is the specialty of Oktoberfest bakers in Pfeifer. f LIEBENTHAL Founded Feb, 22, 1876, Liebenthal is the oldest of the Volga-German settlements, and the only one in Rush County. Travelers driving through Liebenthal on U,S, Highway 183 pass by the main center of town, which includes St, Joseph ' s Church. The town is 14 miles south of Hays. SCHOENCHEN A little over 200 people reside in the peaceful town of Schoenchen, 12 miles south of Hays. But the town ' s beginnings were far from peaceful. Land disputes caused a group living in nearby Liebenthal to break away and form their own settlement they called San Anto- nio. The desire for a more German-sounding name was the reason for the present-day name of Schoenchen. Potatoes and dumplings and galuskies (pigs-in-blankets) are Oktoberfest specialties prepared for the celebration by Schoenchen residents.

Reveille — Awakening to a Different Dawn. A time for us to wake up and realize that the world is changing, and we also must change. Changes here at Fort Hays State University grow more evident every day. The construction of the new Rarick Hall and nursing building, along with the addition of the Student Service Center in the Memorial Union, acknowledged the growing needs of students. More emphasis on life after college caused an increase of services in the Career Planning and Placement Office, And a new phone system called CENTREX was installed, but for the most part it failed to win a place in the hearts of department secretaries and others who had to adjust to its new features.
